[00:15] <spikku>  I ran gzip on a large text file to free up space. However, df is not showing the disk usage reduction, but du is. Any hints?

[00:23] <maheanuu> How do I query a usb card reader?  I cannot get 10.10 to recognize it or any of my CF or SD cards but my daughters windoze machine recognizes it all
[00:24] <Vustom> I'm trying to install TeamSpeak on Ubuntu, when I run the .run in the terminal it wants me to read the ToS so I press enter and scroll down, but when it gets to the end I don't know how to continue, all it says it (END)
[00:24] <tiox> I recently wipes My upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10, for a fresh start in 11.10.
[00:24] <tiox> wiped*
[00:24] <tiox> But now, post-reinstall, it seems I cannot sh -c into anything.
[00:24] <tiox> Keep getting "Permission denied", even as root.
[00:26] <tiox> Vustom: Press tab in the screen.
[00:26] <tiox> Maybe there is a button you have to tab into?
[00:27] <Vustom> Tab does nothing?
[00:27] <Vustom> This is what it says; Welcome to the TeamSpeak 3 Client for Linux on x86 installer  In order to install this software you are required to accept the license agreement, please press return to view the license.  You can scroll with the arrow keys and quit the viewer by pressing 'q'. [RETURN]
[00:28] <Vustom> ooo
[00:28] <Vustom> nvm
[00:28] <Vustom> answered my own question :D
[00:28] <tiox> Now, to figure out why any time I try to use sh -c to run a Wine program, I get denied.
[00:28] <alejandro> how do I install a program when mounting as an ISO through wine? it does not let me change the permission and it says i am not the owner.

[00:39] <sina2> hi, how can i block websites in ubuntu?
[00:39] <OerHeks> maheanuu, did you try to detect with a memorycard inserted ?
[00:40] <brightspark> sina2, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+website+blocker
[00:41] <maheanuu> Yes I have been trying with all my photo cards and it worked fine before, it still works on a windoze machine just not on this machine the card I have installed reads perfectly on my nephews win machine
[00:41] <OerHeks> sina2 you could add the site to denyhost file > http://askubuntu.com/questions/23163/how-to-edit-hosts-deny-and-hosts-allow
[00:41] <sina2> let me to explain
[00:41] <Socky_> How do i tell an ubuntu server to request route advertisements?

[00:42] <sina2> but i live in iran and i use proxy like tor or freedom
[00:42] <Viver> boa noite a todos gostaria de uma ajuda de voces,
[00:43] <sina2> when i use proxy it doesn't work?
[00:43] <Sidewinder1> sina2, And it should be gksudo gedit; not sudo for GUI app.s.
[00:43] <Viver> estou usando esse programa pela primeira vez gostaria de saber como faço para entrar em outro canal
[00:44] <Viver> #maceio
[00:45] <tiox> I seriously feel like rage-quitting and formatting my PC again, lol
[00:47] <tiox> A test command like sh-c "/usr/bin && gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop" works, but something like sh -c "/home/$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/$APPDIR && ./$APPLICATION" denies Me permissioln.
[00:47] <tiox> Ahem...
[00:47] <tiox> sh -c "/home/$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/$APPDIR && wine ./$APPLICATION"
[00:48] <mauri89> hi, does anybody know how to correctly configure tor in Ubuntu 10.04?
[00:48] <Jordan_U> tiox: That looks like you're trying to execute a directory.
[00:49] <tiox> Lemme makes this easier on you. I have wine installed right?
[00:49] <tiox> Trying to make desktop shirtcuts the dirty way like I use to.
[00:49] <tiox> shortcuts*
[00:49] <tiox> Now, I'll type a better example and explain it.
[00:50] <tiox> Actually, hold on, I will try one more time.
[00:50] <tiox> if it's my stupidity, I will eat a hat.
[00:52] <tiox> Can I have a hat?
[00:52] <sina2> it is really hard for one like me which is amateur, blocking is more hard than my imagine
[00:53] <tiox> I forgot, sh -c "cd $STUFF"
[00:57] <wishfoot> hey, does anyone here have a sec to point me in the right direction on a problem I'm having?
[00:59] <brightspark> !ask | wishfoot
[01:02] <wishfoot> OK Here goes:
[01:02] <wishfoot> I installed Xubuntu on an EEE PC 1015PE, it was working great, and then one day I put it in suspend mode and when it woke up, it said "Please select boot device and press any key" or something to the same effect. I tried live cd's of Ubuntu and Xubuntu and neither were able to install on the computer. The ubuntu installer said that there was not 2.6 GB of free space and refused to procede.
[01:02] <wishfoot> Shoot, pressed return too early
[01:02] <wishfoot> wait lemme finish pls :)
[01:02] <realburb> hi, I want to mount my btrfs drive via fstab but I could not find a howto yet
[01:03] <wishfoot> I realize this may be not ubuntu's fault but could anyone at least point me in the direction of where I need to go to ask my question, or better yet in the direction of a program that can help me get the system working again (regardless of whether or not I recover my files; there was nothing of great value - I just need to get the thing functioning again)
[01:04] <wishfoot> kay done now.
[01:04] <matiu> What happened to padevchooser package in latest ubuntu ?
[01:04] <crazytrane> wishfoot, does bios recognize the drive?
[01:05] <wishfoot> I don't think so crazytrane lemme double check
[01:05] <crazytrane> if the bios doesn't see the drive, no OS will either obviously
[01:05] <slgma> how do i set mutter as my default window manager
[01:06] <j_dulaney> What channel does Ubuntu's QA team meet on?
[01:07] <wishfoot> right, that makes sense. There's a hard drive option in the boot priority list but not on the select boot device list
[01:07] <mrpink57> slgma: you should be able to change your enviroment before you login
[01:07] <wishfoot> I'm gonna go with no, crazytrane
[01:07] <slgma> no not the desktop environemnt
[01:07] <slgma> the window manager
[01:07] <slgma> like emerald/gtk-window-decorator/metacity
[01:08] <OerHeks> !emerald
[01:08] <slgma> im not asking about emerald, OerHeks
[01:09] <slgma> im asking about mutter, which is an alternative to compiz/unity
[01:09] <crazytrane> wishfoot, it may be an issue with the drive.  try it in another machine?
[01:10] <wishfoot> try the drive in another machine? You mean like physically remove the drive and install it in another computer?
[01:10] <crazytrane> yeah
[01:10] <crazytrane> or try another drive in that machine
[01:11] <Liner> I require some help, I have been running this problem for DAYS now.
[01:11] <mrpink57> slgma: I still think you change it the same way, it's just a session to have mutter with gnome.
[01:11] <mrpink57> slgma: I am not too familiar with mutter however.
[01:11] <slgma> no it doesnt work like that
[01:11] <Liner> My Windows computer turns on with the Intel Logo and Sony logo,
[01:11] <slgma> i run gnome classic, and its not a desktop environemnt
[01:11] <Liner> and turns off.
[01:11] <slgma> mutter isnt i mean
[01:12] <Liner> I'm trying to get Ubuntu on it so it turns on.
[01:12] <slgma> its just a window manager
[01:12] <chewyboy000> Hi can someone help me?
[01:12] <Liner> So anyone know how I can resolve this problem?
[01:13] <wishfoot> ok... I'm not sure I have the background to do so, crazytrane. Do you have any other ideas that I could try short of opening the computer up? If not, thanks very much anyway. *this reply _not_ intended to be sarcastic/smarmy*
[01:13] <chewyboy000> Can someone help me PLEEEESE!
[01:13] <wishfoot> just ask the question, chewyboy000
[01:14] <Liner> Ok I have a problemt oo.
[01:14] <Liner> I try to turn on my computer,
[01:14] <crazytrane> slgma, can you specify the window manager in /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome.session?
[01:14] <Liner> and it loads Intel Logo,
[01:14] <Liner> and the Sony logo
[01:14] <mrpink57> slgma: try in cli mutter --replace
[01:14] <Liner> and I pop in my Ubuntu disk
[01:14] <crazytrane> the line DefaultProvider-windowmanager=gnome-wm
[01:14] <Liner> nothing happens.
[01:14] <Liner> I try again, nothing happens.
[01:14] <slgma> i know how to do that mrpink57
[01:15] <Liner> blank screen
[01:15] <Liner> Black one.
[01:15] <slgma> that doesnt set it as default when i login
[01:15] <Liner> mrpink
[01:15] <slgma> ill try crazytrane
[01:15] <wishfoot> ok, Liner, this is astonishingly maybe a simple enough problem that  I could actually help you with it
[01:15] <Liner> Can you help me?
[01:15] <Liner> Yay wish!
[01:15] <chewyboy000> Okay so I am using Wubi right and then I upgrade to 11.04 but when ever I restart it after installing it turns to GNOME CLASSIC theme and I can't get it to the regular theme
[01:15] <Liner> Now what is the root of the problem, I am curious.
[01:16] <crazytrane> wishfoot, that's the only way i know of to narrow down the problem.  If it a problem with the machine or the drive.
[01:16] <wishfoot> I hope so anyway. what's the make and model of your computer?
[01:16] <wishfoot> Okay, thanks crazytrane!
[01:16] <Liner> Its Sony
[01:16] <crazytrane> no prob
[01:16] <Liner> Very old PC
[01:16] <slgma> im gonna try to logout now crazytrane
[01:16] <slgma> lets hope it works
[01:16] <crazytrane> slgma
[01:17] <crazytrane> make sure it is the right session file that you are editing
[01:17] <crazytrane> or it won't make a difference lol
[01:17] <slgma> yea i know, gnome.classic
[01:17] <slgma> for me
[01:17] <crazytrane> ok cool
[01:17] <wishfoot> what's the name of the line of computers? also, what kind of ubuntu are you trying to install (like, what version and what flavor?)
[01:17] <slgma> brb
[01:17] <Liner> Ubuntu 11
[01:17] <mrpink57> slgma: you could also add a script to have it do mutter --replace
[01:17] <wishfoot> and the kind of computer?
[01:17] <Liner> the name of the line of computers is Sony Vaio
[01:17] <Liner> PC
[01:17] <chewyboy000> it goes to clearlooks icons
[01:17] <wishfoot> ok, thanks h/o one sec
[01:18] <Liner> Alright.
[01:18] <slgma> hmm i might have something in my startup changing it
[01:18] <Fezzler> I have old AMD K6-266 that I'm upgrading from Natty to 11.10.  I know I need to upgrade PC but need suggestion.
[01:18] <slgma> but i have no clue how to do it in 11.10
[01:19] <Fezzler> Use this PC with "slimmer" distro and save it, repurpose it as home cloud, or get new motherboard and salvage parts (harddrives, etc.)
[01:19] <wishfoot> ok, so when you start up the computer you see a sony screen and it'll have instructions that tell you to press either f1 or f2 probably, right?
[01:19] <Liner> Nope Wishfoot, this is weird.
[01:19] <Liner> I never get that anymore, I used to.
[01:20] <Liner> Just the Sony screen
[01:20] <Liner> and then, black screen. and I'm like -.-,
[01:20] <Liner> I try F5
[01:20] <Liner> Doesn't work.
[01:20] <mrpink57> slgma: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Openbox#GNOME_2.26_Redux this might do it for you, probably bad form to link to another OS.
[01:20] <wishfoot> huh. can you try starting it up for me now and press f1 while you
[01:20] <Liner> Try F1 or F2, doesn't work.
[01:20] <wishfoot> 're still on the screen
[01:20] <Liner> Still no affect.
[01:20] <wishfoot> do you try it while you're still on the sony screen?
[01:20] <wishfoot> *effect
[01:20] <Liner> Yes
[01:20] <Liner> Sorry.
[01:21] <Liner> Wait let me open this up on my iPad.
[01:21] <Liner> Brb
[01:21] <wishfoot> and escape, that too?
[01:22] <Liner> Ok wish, I'm. Back.
[01:22] <slgma> just found out about MATE
[01:22] <wishfoot> ok
[01:22] <wishfoot> so have you tried escape?
[01:24] <Liner> Ok
[01:24] <Liner> I hit f1 it worked
[01:24] <Liner> But I can't see setup
[01:24] <mintux>  I would like to copy some package beside a DVD ubuntu but that DVD can boot and install ubuntu also has the extra package . how can I do that?
[01:24] <Liner> It says entering setup...
[01:25] <Liner> And then nothing .
[01:25] <saigo> when i try to install ubuntu it says no boot loader
[01:25] <Liner> Ok
[01:25] <saigo> i already have linux mint so i have some grub
[01:25] <saigo> can i not just install ubuntu over linux mint?
[01:26] <wishfoot> ok... are you doing this with the cd in the drive?
[01:26] <saigo> yes
[01:26] <BarkingFish> have you set your system up to boot from CD or DVD?
[01:26] <saigo> it wont let me install or try ubuntu because it cant find the bootloader
[01:26] <saigo> yes
[01:26] <wishfoot> also, can you boot into your already installed os normally?
[01:27] <saigo> yes, im in linux mint right now. i also have windows 7 pro.
[01:27] <saigo> i would like to install ubuntu over linux mint.
[01:27] <BarkingFish> saigo: I'd suspect then that your Ubuntu disk may be damaged - is there any way you could download an ISO and burn a fresh copy?
[01:28] <wishfoot> saigo I hope you're not talking to me because I've been talking to Liner
[01:28] <saigo> my bad wishfoot
[01:28] <saigo> barkingfish i just downloaded a fresh ISO. should i try again?
[01:28] <BarkingFish> saigo: absolutely.  Try burning a fresh disk and have another try
[01:29] <BarkingFish> where are you getting the ISO from incidentally?
[01:29] <Fezzler> LOL.  Will 11.10 even run on an AMD K6-266gHz
[01:29] <visual1ce> hi
[01:30] <robin0800> Liner: perhaps delete
[01:30] <nevyn> Fezzler: depends how much ram and what de and a whole bunch of other stuff
[01:30] <visual1ce> ive been fiddling with keyboard layouts and now my login keyboard layout (i think us international) is different to my default (english international altgr dead keys) - makes logging in annoying - how do i set my login keyboard to the same settings as default?
[01:31] <Fezzler> I do have a separate Graphics card and 178mb ram
[01:31] <nu1> hello, I do not know why when I try to press a key more than one time fast, it does not let me do it. For example if I want to delete text, I have to wait like half asec each time I press the backspace key otherwise the page blinks. How can I fix it"? is it in the keyboard setings/
[01:31] <Fezzler> That helps.  And HD are 7200 RPM
[01:32] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I think you could but why not go with a smaller linux something that will give more speed like say Puppy Linux which can be run in ram
[01:32] <Fezzler> Goodwill computer I built 3 years ago to learn "what's all this buzz about Linux and Ubuntu"
[01:32] <mrpink57> Fezzler: they have a version built off of ubuntu, slackware, or debian
[01:33] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Can I use Puppy for light Internet Browsing, network file storage and lite "office" work?
[01:33] <mrpink57> Fezzler: hell yeah you can
[01:34] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Cool.  Writing this down.  Any other lite distros to consider?
[01:34] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I used Slacko puppy for a while (slackware version) it's a great OS.  I recommend doing a frugal install and building from there.
[01:34] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Slatz
[01:34] <crazytrane> damn small linux is like 50mb
[01:34] <crazytrane> handy to have on an old flash drive
[01:34] <mrpink57> Is dsl still maintained though?
[01:35] <mrpink57> I keep Slax on a old flash drive for just in case
[01:36] <mrpink57> Fezzler: If you have the time to build you can also built up a blazing fast system with Arch Linux, it only gives you a kernel and a few basic pieces but it can be lean.
[01:36] <Fezzler> Can these all (Puppy, Damn, Slatz,Slacko) support multiple user at login?
[01:37] <crazytrane> i don't think it is lol
[01:37] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Yes.  Slacko is a version of puppy
[01:37] <TreCool92> Your should try Lubuntu for a build your own distro
[01:37] <mrpink57> Fezzler: http://distrowatch.com/search.php?category=Old+Computers#distrosearch
[01:38] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Well, small enough to run on AMD K6-266 but a little user friendly as family uses for light browsing, wordprocessing, and I essentially use as home network backup box
[01:39] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Then I would really recommed Puppy, since it all goes into RAM it can be fast on the oldest of computers
[01:39] <Fezzler> Which installs easiest?  I would essentially be installing over Ubuntu 11.10 , somehow
[01:39] <mrpink57> I use a 1.7ghz underclocked to 600mhz on this old laptop and puppy is very fast
[01:39] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Puppy would be.
[01:40] <mrpink57> Fezzler: they have a channel on freenode its #puppylinux
[01:40] <mrpink57> Fezzler: http://puppylinux.org/main/How%20to%20download%20Puppy.htm
[01:41] <Fezzler> mrpink57> http://puppylinux.org/main/Overview%20and%20Getting%20Started.htm   <---This?
[01:41] <Fezzler> mrpink57> LOL.  Scary.  We were doing the same thing
[01:41] <HQRaja> How do I disable the guest account on 11.10?
[01:42] <Fezzler> mrpink57> one last Q.  So will I beable to install "over" Ubuntu 11.10 with what?  Online or ISO disk image, etc.
[01:43] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Yes.  When you start the installer for puppy you will delete the old partition through gparted.  you can keep it simple with a main partition but I would recommend putting a swap partition double your ram.
[01:43] <mrpink57> Fezzler: it comes preloaded with most everything you need
[01:44] <Fezzler> mrpink57> reading, sounds like I want "frugal" install that installs to harddrive
[01:44] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Yes.  It's also easier to do updates with if needed.
[01:45] <saigo> i guess my question is did linux mint do something with grub that i need to undo or change in order to install ubuntu??
[01:45] <almoxarife> HQRaja: depends on the greeter you are using, gdm or lightdm?
[01:45] <Fezzler> mrpink57> I have a tricky install of Ubuntu.  The system is on a 60 gig HD and the "home\" is mapped/mounted to a 200gig for safety reasomns.
[01:45] <HQRaja> almoxarife: The default that ships with 11.10
[01:45] <Fezzler> mrpink57> I can do that with puppy?
[01:45] <almoxarife> !info lghtdm
[01:46] <mrpink57> Fezzler: you set it all up through gparted, I have never used a mapped drive so I cannot answer that I would go to their IRC channel #puppylinux and ask
[01:46] <almoxarife> !info lgihtdm
[01:46] <HQRaja> !info lightdm
[01:46] <HQRaja> :D
[01:46] <Fezzler> mrpink57> got it.  thanks for your time and suggestions
[01:46] <almoxarife> HQRaja: I am guessing you have gdm then
[01:46] <ellogovern> hallo im having trouble having loading a rom on my phone
[01:47] <visual1ce> Hi, the keyboard layout for my login screen is different to the one I have selected after login - how can I change the keyboard layout for login screen?
[01:47] <almoxarife> HQRaja: you familiar with package removal?
[01:47] <Fezzler> mrpink57> $20 that 11.10 brings my AMD k6-266 to its knees in about 20m when upgrade is done
[01:47] <HQRaja> almoxarife: By finding the package in Software Center and clicking uninstall?
[01:48] <HQRaja> almoxarife: Or by apt-get --remove or something?
[01:48] <mrpink57> Fezzler: yeah I don't see it going well especailly with gnome installed.  I am currently using DWM as my DE/WM and it only uses about 1% of my cpu the rest is Chrome.
[01:48] <almoxarife> HQRaja: apt-get would be faster
[01:48] <jonex> need to install driver for my wireless ... i have a hp Compaq nx6110 running Ubuntu 11.10
[01:49] <HQRaja> almoxarife: Alright, so which package will I have to remove? I only want to disable guest access without removing anything else.
[01:49] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Looks like I'm getting a Puppy!  :)
[01:49] <almoxarife> assume you have gdm and remove gdm-guest-session
[01:49] <HQRaja> Alright, lemme try that. Would this be correct: sudo apt-get --remove gdm-guest-session ?
[01:49] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Or I'll go to Goodwill and look for a modern box.  Pentium 4?  That would do trick with 11.10?
[01:49] <almoxarife> HQRaja: I have lightdm, so insure removal does not take your desktop with it
[01:50] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I wouldn't even bother buying another machine personally, there are so many linux's that can run on really old hardware.
[01:50] <almoxarife> HQRaja: sudo apt-get remove gdm-guest-session
[01:50] <HQRaja> Oh OK
[01:50] <HQRaja> Thanks
[01:50] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I am hoping Puppy makes a BSD fork I think that would be a nice lightweight setup
[01:50] <HQRaja> It doesn't sound like it'll remove anything else...just the guest session
[01:50] <Fezzler> mrpink57> And try to reuse my harddrives?  But boy, you can get brand new Win7 box for under $300 and setup a dual boot.  That may be way to go.
[01:51] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Yea, I hear ya, why not try Puppy first.  Txs.
[01:51] <mrpink57> Fezzler: It's your checkbook not mine.  I've had this laptop since 2004 now and have been using linux since 2005 on it.  It can boot up and load faster then my desktop using Win7
[01:51] <chalcedony> how can i tell ubuntu, command line, which ip to look at for the router?
[01:51] <HQRaja> almoxarife: BTW I just did a quick google search and I found 11.10 ships with lightdm by default, so I'm using that.
[01:51] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Remind me, what are you running?
[01:52] <almoxarife> HQRaja: then the remove won't work
[01:52] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I use Arch Linux w/ DWM now I used Puppy when I was too lazy to install Arch.
[01:52] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I am on a Pentium M 600mhz
[01:52] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Arch tough for non-techie?
[01:52] <ubuntu_> Hello
[01:52] <crazytrane> chalcedony: default gateway?
[01:52] <mrpink57> Fezzler: Has one of the best wiki's
[01:52] <Fezzler> mrpink57> tough install, that is?
[01:53] <chalcedony> crazytrane, i think?
[01:53] <HQRaja> almoxarife: Googled...found the solution. =)
[01:53] <crazytrane> 'route add default gw ipaddressofgateway'
[01:53] <mrpink57> Fezzler: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide
[01:53] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Maybe worth buy dinner and beers for local propellerhead / ponytail to install arch for me
[01:53] <chalcedony> crazytrane, thanks :)
[01:53] <ubuntu_> I am trying to install Xubunti 11 on to Dell Optiplex GX 150
[01:53] <eqwd> how do i get the netbios name of the machine im logged in to
[01:53] <mrpink57> Fezzler: It is pretty easy to install, plus you can learn something from it.
[01:54] <ubuntu_> I am trying to install Xubunti 11 on to Dell Optiplex GX 150,  I can boot from the CD fine, but I cannot seem to install the same on to my hard-drive. Appreciate any help
[01:54] <Fezzler> mrpink57> FYI.  11.10 installing.  2 hours!  ETA!  LOL
[01:54] <HQRaja> 2 hours?!
[01:55] <frozenbaby> Heya, not really used to Ubuntu but I'm on 10.04 logged in under user1.. just trying to get some env variables added to /home/user1/.bashrc but they do not seem to be taking when I check env even after re-logging. What could I be doing wrong?
[01:55] <HQRaja> Oh it has to be due to the language packs...there's some issue with that. I came across it too, once.
[01:55] <Fezzler> mrpink57> You are scaring me how much you are in tune.  I like learning.  So, Puppy or Arch on my list.  If I go Arch, I'll back up data of course
[01:55] <mrpink57> I wouldn't even waste the time
[01:55] <mrpink57> with a 2 hour instal
[01:55] <HQRaja> IMHO it should *ask* if we even want to install the language packs
[01:56] <HQRaja> It's something major overlooked in ubuntu
[01:56] <mrpink57> HQRaja: Can't you hit skip when it starts to dl?
[01:56] <mrpink57> I have installed ubuntu or mint in a long time
[01:56] <mrpink57> haven't
[01:56] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Well, it is underway, so I may as well let it go for kicks
[01:56] <atc3030> hello all
[01:56] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Learning
[01:56] <HQRaja> mrpink57: Yeah we can but we get to see the 'skip' button only when we expand that area...which isn't too obvious to many users.
[01:57] <mrpink57> Fezzler: I've just used a lot of different linux's over the years so you pick up a few things.  I am actually reading the UNIX Shell Programming book right now.
[01:57] <HQRaja> Just one prompt before doing that, just asking the user if they want extra languages installed during installation or not, would make so much more sense.
[01:57] <atc3030> i have an ipod classic 120 gig, i want to sync over 70 gigs of music to it in ubuntu. how can i do that? banshee chokes on it and dies, rhythmbox never starts syncing, and gtkpod willl not work with my organization of music. i would like a terminal solution but any will work
[01:57] <mrpink57> HQRaja: or allowing the choice of specific language packs
[01:58] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Cool.  Before I got into computer recording (guitar) I used to read about UNIX Shell Programming and Ruby
[01:58] <HQRaja> mrpink57: That'd be ideal, yeah!
[01:58] <Jimmy_Kash> Is there a command I can run to delete all files older than todays date?
[01:58] <mrpink57> atc3030: I would look into doing it through command line via cp
[01:59] <atc3030> but then it doesnt show up in the ipod
[01:59] <disismyname> YEAH!! MIXAEL HAZE's "Rigid Flow of Life" finally out now!!!
[01:59] <disismyname> http://soundcloud.com/mixaelhaze/rigid-flow-of-life
[01:59] <mrpink57> atc3030: what do you mean?  it would just copy the files into a directory on your desktop
[01:59] <atc3030> what do you mean?
[01:59] <atc3030> i have over 2000 artists
[02:00] <mrpink57> atc3030: when you plug in the ipod you would just do something like cp /media/ipod/... ~/music
[02:00] <l1nr007> Hi, how can I use wget to download a remote file to particular local folder ?
[02:00] <atc3030> no i want to go from computer onto the ipod
[02:00] <mrpink57> l1nr007: cd into the folder
[02:01] <Fezzler> -
[02:01] <atc3030> reverse of what you are thinking
[02:01] <mrpink57> atc3030: then just reverse the command
[02:01] <frozenbaby> Heya, not really used to Ubuntu but I'm on 10.04 logged in under user1.. just trying to get some env variables added to /home/user1/.bashrc but they do not seem to be taking when I check env even after re-logging. What could I be doing wrong?
[02:01] <idlemind324> I'm looking for recommendations for what I should use for file sharing on an all Linux network. SSH (SFTP/SCP) or NFS v4
[02:01] <mrpink57> atc3030: or do it in smaller batches through your music program
[02:02] <atc3030> ill look into it then. i wish i could put ipod linux on it
[02:02] <l1nr007> mrpink57, in fact i'm going to use it in a bash script.. isn't there any other way to do it... like passing a parameter to wget or something
[02:02] <mrpink57> atc3030: I have about 200g of music and it will choke most programs
[02:02] <nevyn> idlemind324: do you have common uid/usernames and central authentication?
[02:02] <atc3030> it sux
[02:02] <HQRaja> iDevices don't allow direct access to music stored on them through file managers etc. if I recall correctly
[02:02] <Fezzler> mrpink57> Thanks again man, headed over to opensourcemusicians
[02:02] <mrpink57> l1nr007: I would check the man page on wget
[02:02] <HQRaja> You have to do it through some music management program, unless I'm wrong
[02:02] <idlemind324> nevyn: i'm intending to do ldap (or possibly a product built on ldap like fedora directory service)
[02:02] <idlemind324> nevyn: so yes centralized usernames / uid's
[02:03] <mrpink57> HQRaja: can't you open a ipod like a drive in linux?
[02:03] <nevyn> idlemind324: if it's a single authentication zone with common trust between all devices then I'd go nfsv4 or possibly v3 (it's faster)
[02:03] <ActionParsnip> mrpink57: install ifuse
[02:03] <mrpink57> ActionParsnip: that will allow the ipod to be seen as a drive?
[02:03] <idlemind324> nevyn: do you have a good resource for understanding the changes in nfs v4? I know acl's were implemented or at least more directly. do i still need underlying acl's set? like ntfs perms + smb/share perms in windows?
[02:04] <HQRaja> mrpink57: Never owned any Apple hardware but as far as I know, you can mount them as drives on Windows (and on other operating systems too) but you get access only to store/retrieve data...the music is kept separately
[02:04] <ActionParsnip> mrpink57: afaik, I don't buy apple crud
[02:04] <mrpink57> HQRaja: I understand now.  Gee that makes Apple sound very windowsey
[02:04] <ActionParsnip> !info ifuse
[02:04] <mrpink57> ActionParsnip: it's for terrorists
[02:04] <HQRaja> The music *has* to be managed through iTunes or some other music management software that's compatible...and music files copied through such software don't even show up in USB device mode
[02:04] <ActionParsnip> mrpink57: it's ffor isheep :)
[02:05] <mrpink57> well glad I use Sandisk
[02:05] <HQRaja> Heh
[02:05] <mrpink57> built in vorbis support
[02:05] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: can't banshee / rhythmnbox / amarok talk to it?
[02:05] <ActionParsnip> mrpink57: nice
[02:05] <HQRaja> I use my Android phone with a 16GB card...all the music I need to carry around is ~3GB...only what I absolutely must have with me.
[02:05] <chalcedony> ActionParsnip, *hugs* good to see you :)
[02:05] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: howdy pardener :)
[02:05] <wookienz> hi, wheni try and log out of the cli somtimes i get the "there are stopped jobs" what does this mean and should i correct it before i do actually log out?
[02:05] <chalcedony> :)
[02:05] <HQRaja> Don't see the point in carrying around tens of GBs of music
[02:06] <HQRaja> ActionParsnip: Yup such software can
[02:06] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: same here, LG Optimus :)
[02:06] <Kimble> Anyone running a local ntp server on their network?
[02:06] <HQRaja> Optimus is neat
[02:06] <mrpink57> my 200gb of FLAC converted to vorbis is 17gb lol
[02:06] <HQRaja> I'm still using an HTC HD2
[02:06] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: screen is hard for ircing on, otherwiseits sweet
[02:06] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: nice
[02:06] <HQRaja> Running Android 2.3.7 on it
[02:06] <chalcedony> can someone please remind me how to reset the wifi pass?
[02:07] <ActionParsnip> only 2.1 here, its a 256k ROM chip and 2.2 and up are 512K images
[02:07] <Kimble> wookienz: It means you started a command in the CLI, then stopped it (ctrl C perhaps), and when you try to quit that shell it warns you you've jobs you stopped earlier, and ifyou quit the shell the processes and their data will be lost.
[02:07] <ActionParsnip> chalcedony: just remove the network in network manager and the pass will be forgotten
[02:07] <HQRaja> ActionParsnip: Try MIUI, if it's available for your phone.
[02:08] <HQRaja> And you must have meant 256M and not k
[02:08] <Fallacy> Is there any way to mark an exception after an asterisk?
[02:09] <HQRaja> Isn't Optimus that newer one by LG BTW? 1GHz processor and neat specs etc?
[02:09] <Kimble> I've given my ntpd 15 minutes to sync, but still no sync is recorded in syslog.  I have 5 server in the conf, my internet is definitely up.  Any suggestions?
[02:09] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: GT540 LG
[02:09] <Jimmy_Kash> Is there a command I can run to delete all files older than todays date?
[02:10] <Fallacy> Have you checked the rm manual?
[02:10] <Jimmy_Kash> nop, thought I would ask here
[02:11] <idlemind324> kimble: i do. anyone with a windows domain controller does
[02:11] <HQRaja> ActionParsnip: Oh OK...I just looked it up...yup its got limited internal storage...not enough for big ROMs
[02:11] <Kimble> Jimmy_Kash: I think it's polite and expedient to check the manual first for such questions.
[02:11] <idlemind324> kimble: most ppl just sync to an existing ntp server on the web though if it's just workstations on the network
[02:11] <Jimmy_Kash> Kimble: Sorry mate I just thought if someone knew they could help.  A simple no is okay :)
[02:12] <mrpink57> Jimmy_Kash: I have a feeling a script it going to be needed to do that, and with having the option with just rm could be dangerous.
[02:12] <idlemind324> jimmy_kash it wouldn't be terribly hard. you'll have to pipe the results from find into a rm command
[02:12] <Jimmy_Kash> mrpink57: thanks.  Yeah I figuired, hence asking here first for peoples feedback
[02:12] <idlemind324> jimmy_kash so either a script or a very clever one liner
[02:12] <Fallacy> So... anyone know how to choose all with an asterisk (*) bar something? Like choosing all the files in a folder except cats.txt.
[02:12] <HQRaja> Heh rm reminds me of a disaster I once had
[02:12] <Kimble> idlemind324: but that's the thing. I've set my laptop to sync with 5 UK servers, but 20 minutes later I'm still not getting a log message indicating sync.
[02:13] <ActionParsnip> HQRaja: runs well, got GOlauncherEX on it, works well
[02:13] <mrpink57> Fallacy: do they have similar names the files you want to delete or see?
[02:13] <idlemind324> kimble: any firewall on the pc/server or firewall blocking ntp traffic?
[02:13] <nevyn> idlemind324: not really. sorry.
[02:13] <ActionParsnip> Fallacy: ls | grep -v cats.txt    will list the files, you can then execute something on those files
[02:13] <HQRaja> Years back, when I was an early teenager and had Windows 98 as my main OS, I installed Red Hat on another partition
[02:14] <Fallacy> No. I just want to use rsync to back up all the files in a folder except for one folder.
[02:14] <HQRaja> After a while, I got tired of it and decided to remove it using rm -rf /*
[02:14] <Kimble> idlemind324: not an outgoing firewall, no. Incoming, sure, but it's an outgoing request.
[02:14] <ActionParsnip> Fallacy: rsync has a --ignore switch, check the man page
[02:14] <mrpink57> Fallacy: I am lazy so I would probably just move the cats.txt file somewhere else
[02:14] <idlemind324> kimble: do you see the request ever being sent either in the logs or by a packet sniffer?
[02:14] <HQRaja> I was thinking it'll be all fine because my windows partition and personal data partitions weer separate but guess what?
[02:15] <sealtrip> I found an error in /var/log/auth.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/760006/ after every login. please help if you can?
[02:15] <HQRaja> my personal data partition was mounted as /mydata when I did rm -rf /*
[02:15] <idlemind324> jimmy_kash just out of curiosity what files are you looking to delete? files created, modified or accessed after a certain date / time?
[02:16] <Kimble> idlemind324: I'm looking at syslog. I get 6 "Listen normally" messages, an ntp_io descriptors mess, and a proto: precision message. That's all.
[02:16] <jtokarchuk> HQRaja: Ouch.
[02:16] <idlemind324> kimble if you do a: ntpdate -q
[02:17] <idlemind324> kimble do you get a result or anything?
[02:17] <Kimble> Aha, that says, "no servers can be used, exiting."
[02:17] <idlemind324> hmm
[02:18] <mrpink57> Fallacy: could try *[!cats]
[02:19] <Kimble> That is odd. ntpd is definitely running. My net is up. The servers were all taken from ntp.org.
[02:20] <idlemind324> kimble: ntpdate -q ntp.ubuntu.com
[02:21] <Fallacy> mrpink57: Hm, okay.
[02:21] <idlemind324> kimble: does that give you a date (just want to eliminate any network troubles first)
[02:22] <Kimble> I get the following response: 5 Dec 02:21:40 ntpdate[4273]: adjust time server 91.189.94.4 offset -0.001818 sec
[02:22] <godofmischief> I screwed up compiz to the point that it was crashing the xserver, so i uninstalled it and resintalled it.  Things are fine now execept my option to login with 3d unity no longer exists.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[02:22] <ActionParsnip> godofmischief: try reinstalling unity package
[02:23] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip, sounds good, what's the easiest way to do that?
[02:23] <ActionParsnip> godofmischief: however you feel most comfortable
[02:23] <idlemind324> kimble: so something is up with your /etc/ntp.conf file
[02:24] <idlemind324> or ntpd isn't running
[02:24] <Kimble> oh. aha. ok. I'll revert to the original conf file, and restart the server. brb
[02:25] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip, lol, that's so helpful it hurts, thanks.
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> godofmischief: sudo apt-get --reinstall install unity     is one way, but I use a lot of CLI
[02:26] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip, linux doesn't really like n00bish hacking away at thing blindly I thought there might be a preferred method to remedy this that won't cause further issues
[02:26] <krispaul> How i do disable the guest account?
[02:26] <krispaul> Hello btw
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> godofmischief: its just a package so any way is fine as long as the result is reached
[02:27] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip,  it tells me the newest version is already installed and in my package manager i only see the 2d panel listed
[02:27] <idlemind324> Jimmy_Kash: you can use find to solve your issue like this: find <directory to search/remove files in> -atime NdaysAgo -type f -delete so to delete all files that were accessed within 2 days in say my test directory under my home I would run this command: find ~/Test -atime 2 -type f -delete
[02:28] <Kimble> BRB. My cat just had an epileptic seizure. No joke.
[02:28] <Fallacy> So, would this work as a cron job? "30 2 * * * root cd /var/www && rsync -av *[!backups] | gzip > /var/www/backups/webcontent/`date '+%m-%d-%Y'`.zip"
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> krispaul: http://askubuntu.com/questions/62564/how-do-i-disable-the-guest-session
[02:28] <idlemind324> kimble: less beer for the cat bud
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> godofmischief: add the option:  --reinstall
[02:29] <A|i3N> What's the easiest way to convert either from PSD or Postscript to a PDF file?
[02:29] <idlemind324> Ali3N: ps2pdf
[02:29] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip, thank you brvb
[02:29] <krispaul> ActionParsnip, much thanks !
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> krispaul: np man
[02:34] <godofmischief> ActionParsnip, that is wierd after adding --reinstall now it no longer even says unity at the login options, i have Ubuntu, and ubuntu 2d the regular ubuntu login loads no shell really lolcat
[02:35] <lolcat> ?
[02:35] <lolcat> godofmischief: Why highligth me?
[02:35] <godofmischief> lolcat acident tab autocomplete for nick
[02:35] <godofmischief> your nick is part of a standard "lol" im sure that cant' be the first time that has ever happend
[02:36] <lolcat> godofmischief: No, unfortnuatly it isnt. I am in over 300 channels. People talk about "lolcats" and whatnot all the time -.-"
[02:37] <godofmischief> lolcat, im in no way surprised, idk what to say about that other then that.  Sorry you have a nick that be so commonly accidently alerted to you i suppose
[02:37] <godofmischief> lolcat, 300 channels tho seriously? wow, what do you do in 300 channels ?
[02:38] <lolcat> godofmischief: I accept your appology, but we must not get offtopic here. If you want to inquire about me or my irc habbits please take it to some other channel I'm in or PM. /whois will reveal like 120 channels you can choose from.
[02:41] <JTWU> Hi all
[02:42] <jasonmchrist0s> strangers at my doorstep hiding like goons pray for me in the name of Jesus Christ
[02:42] <jasonmchrist0s> have to go
[02:42] <brightspark>  
[02:43] <JTWU> jno one is talking?
[02:45] <Kimble> idlemind324: Hi. I've moved my modified conf file out and replaced it with the unmodified default file. I've restarted ntpd, and run the ntpdate -q command again. It gives much the same response as the last one. :/
[02:45] <Guest68319> ciao
[02:45] <Guest68319> !list
[02:45] <idlemind324> kimble: have you started the NTP service?
[02:46] <idlemind324> kimble: /etc/init.d/ntpd start or restart?
[02:46] <xangua> why does he ever do the same¿¿ over and over again¿¿! o_O he says ciao and do the !list factoid :/
[02:47] <enav> hi how can i edit the groups on the alst ubuntu
[02:47] <enav> cant find the option in the config panel
[02:48] <Kimble> idlemind324: I don't actually have an /etc/init.d/ntpd - i have init.d/ntp only. but ps aux lists /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -g -u 108:116 running under the ntp user right now.
[02:48] <idlemind324> kimble: ahh k it's just ntp wasn't sure off the top of my head
[02:49] <Kimble> fair question tho. the tutorial I followed on Ubuntu.com tells you to install package "ntpd", which doesn't exist - just ntp. So you're not alone. Or was something changed recently?
[02:49] <mrpink57> Kimble: I think ntpd is the daemon for ntp
[02:50] <idlemind324> kimble: i'm booting up a test server atm so i can look @ the configs / log entries. you're running 11.10 server?
[02:50] <Kimble> idlemind324: yes. Kernel 3.0.0-13
[02:50] <idlemind324> kimble: k i'll have an 11.10 vm up in a jiffy
[02:50] <mrpink57> Kimble: doing ntpd -q would sync
[02:50] <Kimble> cool, thanks :)
[02:51] <rodayo> Does anyone know how to clear your entire ARP cache?
[02:52] <zoqaeski> How is the content on the Ubuntu ISO organised? I want to dual-boot a USB stick so it has both an Arch Linux and Ubuntu live CD. The Arch one works fine, but I have no idea what to copy to where to get the Ubuntu one working
[02:52] <rodayo> I've tried a few different methods: ip neigh flush all. But running "arp" still displays a full table except the HWAddress column is all "(incomplete)"
[02:52] <Kimble> mrpink57: perhaps it does, but the point is that ntpd is supposed to do all this automatically, but there seems to be an error somewhere.
[02:52] <manrique_> I don't know what had happened exactly, but there is a chat different from this, with different windows and with each private conversation in a separate window. How do i get to that chat?
[02:53] <mrpink57> Kimble: I'm not suggesting anything like that I am just agreeing about it saying to install ntpd which is wrong
[02:54] <Kimble> ah, I see. gotcha. You didn't make that clear :)
[02:54] <manrique_> mrpink57 are you talking to manrique_?
[02:54] <w0_> http://urlpaste.com/UK409Ino -- found this in today's news.  I'm not sure what to make of it, how to install fix?  mch thx
[02:54] <idlemind324> w0_ run software update
[02:55] <w0_> sudo idlemind324: sudo apt-get update ??
[02:55] <mrpink57> manrique_: that would be a query aka a pm
[02:55] <w0_> not trying to sudo YOU whoops
[02:55] <idlemind324> w0_ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:55] <mrpink57> manrique_: I was not talking to you I was speaking to Kimble
[02:55] <w0_> hah
[02:55] <Anarhist> hello, i have a conundrum with the permissions, i am trying to make a directory non-executable, but its child should still be with +x, http://pastebin.com/SQu5zCuP
[02:55] <w0_> idlemind324: excellent.  thank you =)
[02:55] <manrique_> thank's, mrpink57
[02:56] <idlemind324> anarhist: chmod 666 <directory>; chmod -R +x <directory>/*
[02:57] <Anarhist> idlemind324, i thought about it: drwxr-xr-x 2 volodya volodya 4096 2011-12-05 06:49 path2
[02:57] <idlemind324> kimble: haven't forgotten. vm is installing atm
[02:57] <Anarhist> idlemind324, it's already executable
[02:57] <manrique_> could anyone answer how do I get to a special chat where each private conversation is in a separate window and stuff like that? I'm sure I had used it tonight+
[02:57] <Kimble> idlemind324: I'm not rushing you :)  Appreciate the assist :)
[02:57] <idlemind324> anarhist the chmod 666 on the directory should alter it to rw-rw-rw-
[02:58] <w0_> idlemind324: wait ... will sudo apt-get update or upgrade well. upgrade my distro?  I need to keep it at 1.04 -- ??
[02:58] <w0_> 10.04 rather
[02:58] <idlemind324> w0_ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade would upgrade your major version
[02:58] <mrpink57> manrique_: that would be a query aka pm so /q personsusername
[02:58] <Anarhist> idlemind324, but then i will be unable to change into it
[02:58] <w0_> aha
[02:58] <Anarhist> idlemind324, i mean others won't be able to
[02:58] <w0_> idlemind324: thank you
[02:58] <idlemind324> w0_ apt-get update ... updates the list of of updates available, upgrade actually updates those packages
[02:58] <manrique_> what you mean?
[02:58] <w0_> neato
[02:58] <the20yrlaptop> Having trouble getting a USB live install to work , just downloaded the ISO and used the tool from windows to save it or whatever, anyways after restarting & booting from USB , ubutnu says it's loading, plays the start music then continues to keep the loading screen , although displaying the mouse pointer which is sluggish
[02:59] <mrpink57> manrique_: you want to talk to one specific person is what I assume you are asking for in a separate window from this?
[02:59] <idlemind324> anarhist you want the directory to have what perms?
[02:59] <idlemind324> anarhist user: rw? group: rw? all: none?
[02:59] <Anarhist> idlemind324, i want some user to be able to change into the subdir, but not into the dir
[02:59] <manrique_> yes, and conversations in that channel are quite different
[03:00] <mrpink57> manrique_: may i query you?
[03:00] <idlemind324> anarhist so you want all users to have read then
[03:00] <idlemind324> chmod 664 <directory)
[03:00] <manrique_> yes
[03:00] <the20yrlaptop> Any ideas?
[03:00] <Anarhist> idlemind324, still "permission denied"
[03:00] <Anarhist> q; -(=
[03:01] <idlemind324> the chmod command or the actual cd command?
[03:01] <Anarhist> idlemind324, the cd command, the cd into the child dir
[03:01] <Anarhist> idlemind324, i'm thinking it's some ubuntu specific protection or something
[03:02] <Jordan_U> the20yrlaptop: What version of Ubuntu? How much RAM do you have?
[03:02] <the20yrlaptop> 3b of  ram   , whatever the newest build of ubuntu is
[03:02] <idlemind324> anarhist: i tried it on my pc
[03:02] <Anarhist> idlemind324, i just got an answer on #linux
[03:02] <idlemind324> r = perms to get in the directory and list contents
[03:03] <the20yrlaptop> I guess the newest version is 11.10
[03:03] <Anarhist> for the benefit of others the answer is that you can't do that properly, because +x is needed to traverse
[03:04] <idlemind324> ahh
[03:04] <Jordan_U> the20yrlaptop: Have you verified that the CD burned correctly? You can do so from the boot menu (which you can get to by pressing any key within the first 5 seconds of boot).
[03:05] <the20yrlaptop> How do I verify ? I assume you mean the boot screen for ubuntu?
[03:06] <mrpink57> the20yrlaptop: yes from the boot up of the live cd
[03:07] <the20yrlaptop> ok, and a menu will come up?
[03:10] <the20yrlaptop> Jordan , how do I verify the installation was done right?
[03:11] <lao> anyone now how to disable guest session in 11.10 I know it is in lightdm
[03:13] <kiencs> k onda a todos
[03:13] <jtokarchuk> lao: sudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, add allow-guest=false to the bottom
[03:13] <lao> thanks a million
[03:14] <jtokarchuk> lao: you're welcome
[03:16] <MonkeyZazu> hep me!
[03:16] <MonkeyZazu> can anyone hep me?
[03:17] <jtokarchuk> MonkeyZazu: What's up?
[03:17] <MonkeyZazu> i need to know how to record my desktop
[03:17] <MonkeyZazu> with sound
[03:17] <MonkeyZazu> in gnome3
[03:17] <MonkeyZazu> can u hep me?
[03:17] <zizoo> Hey, does anyone know of a good program for Ubuntu that I can use to log what programs I have open and what window is in focus? Or a better channel on which to ask this question?
[03:18] <kiencs> alguien habla español?
[03:18] <sandyd> MonkeyZazu: gtk-recordmydesktop
[03:18] <MonkeyZazu> sandyd, that crashed on me
[03:18] <sandyd> MonkeyZazu: qt-recordmydesktop then
[03:18] <MonkeyZazu> it made my panels disappear and i had to restart
[03:18] <MonkeyZazu> qt-recordmydesktop?
[03:18] <MonkeyZazu> is this wat u use?
[03:19] <zizoo> (Or, for that matter, if there is a guide to support IRC channels I can look at, if this is not the right place for that question.)
[03:19] <sandyd> MonkeyZazu: same, except that it uses QT instad of GTK.
[03:19] <jtokarchuk> MonkeyZazu: I think it's listed as just recordmydesktop in the 11.10 software centre
[03:19] <jtokarchuk> er, didn't read above, use the qt
[03:19] <MonkeyZazu> and the qt will work?
[03:19] <MonkeyZazu> let me try, one sec
[03:19] <jtokarchuk> there's one way to find out
[03:20] <sandyd> MonkeyZazu: If it doesn't, use ffmpeg x11grab
[03:20] <jtokarchuk> zizoo: For what use?
[03:20] <MonkeyZazu> do you guys know the keyboard combo for gnome3?
[03:20] <MonkeyZazu> shift-ctrl-aly-r
[03:20] <psychx-> Anyone have any experience setting up Ventrilo in Wine? I installed it and can connect to servers, but my sound isn't working properly. It makes a sound initially when I connect to a server, but then nothing else happens - seems like its crashing the sound or something.
[03:21] <zizoo> Logging what I use my computer for, so I can improve my own productivity.
[03:21] <MonkeyZazu> psychx, you should go to youtube and look up linuxspatry
[03:21] <psychx-> ok
[03:21] <MonkeyZazu> he said he was going to do a tutorial on that
[03:21] <AdminSetup> Hi....Where can I get help of IDJC ? is there Any specific channel ???
[03:21] <Braden`> Hello
[03:21] <MonkeyZazu> what is idjc?
[03:22] <Braden`> Is it possible to install gnome2?
[03:22] <Braden`> The default window manager runs like crap
[03:22] <zizoo> As it stands, I slack off a lot, but I don't really know -how much-. I think if I knew, the numbers would shock me into doing something about it, and give me a metric to set goals by.
[03:22] <jtokarchuk> Braden`,: Did you try unity2d?
[03:23] <zizoo> But spending all the time tracking what I'm doing manually is distracting and time-consuming.
[03:23] <Braden`> Oh.  How do I install that?
[03:23] <MonkeyZazu> you should switch to linux mint 12
[03:23] <MonkeyZazu> it uses mate
[03:23] <MonkeyZazu> kinda like gnome2
[03:23] <Braden`> install the apt package and then uninstall unity3d?
[03:23] <sandyd> Braden': its selectable at login screen
[03:24] <sandyd>  * Braden`: its selectable at login screen
[03:24] <psychx-> MonkeyZazu: Doesn't look like he's done it yet.
[03:24] <Braden`> I don't get the login screen
[03:24] <Braden`> I always have to use startx for some reason
[03:24] <jtokarchuk> zizoo: that would probably have to be written. Shouldn't be too difficult
[03:25] <jtokarchuk> zizoo: think you just gave me an idea for my first ubuntu program
[03:25] <MonkeyZazu> psychx, he said he was going to do it, probly a week or so
[03:25] <MonkeyZazu> and if he hasn't done it yet, look for other youtubers that have
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> MonkeyZazu: could switch to xfce, it looks and smells like gnome2
[03:25] <MonkeyZazu> i don't hate xfce, but it is not gnome
[03:26] <ActionParsnip> Braden`: Gnome2 is dead
[03:26] <zizoo> Haha, what, you want to write it for me? xD... Let me know how it goes, but also, can you tell me what language I would have to work in to write such a program for Ubuntu? Hell, could I make it as a shell script, using the ps command?
[03:26]  * jtokarchuk gasps
[03:26] <MonkeyZazu> dead my ass!!!!
[03:26] <MonkeyZazu> gnome2 is still living
[03:26] <the20yrlaptop> How do I do a file integrity check for a USB drive install? There isn't  option like there is for a live CD?
[03:26] <MonkeyZazu> red hats uses gnome2
[03:26]  * OerHeks agrees with ActionParsnip 
[03:27] <MonkeyZazu> the20yrlaptop: go to terminal and use md5checksum
[03:27] <MonkeyZazu> i think
[03:27] <MonkeyZazu> or apropos md5 and see what you get
[03:27] <the20yrlaptop> Can't get into terminal , or at least I haven't figured out how to
[03:27] <zizoo> I'm not -too- familiar with languages other than Java and C at present, but I could learn for something like this. Oh wait though, darn. Window -focus- would be harder than just "ps", wouldn't it? ._.;
[03:27] <jtokarchuk> the20yrlaptop, CTRL + ALT + T
[03:27] <robin0800> ! notunity | MonkeyZazu
[03:28] <the20yrlaptop> What command would I then use?
[03:28] <jtokarchuk> zizoo: check pm
[03:28] <ActionParsnip> MonkeyZazu: the gnome team are not developing Gnome2 any more, Lucid uses it Gnome2 toom, but no bug fixes upstream will happen
[03:29] <MonkeyZazu> gnome2 is still being worked with though, it is not dead. I think some arch guys have taking it up and making it into mate or something
[03:29] <Kimble> idlemind324: hey, really sorry, it's v early where I am so I think I'm going to log out.  Thanks for helping as much as you did.  I'll try to catch you online tomorrow?
[03:29] <the20yrlaptop> i know there was a terminal command I could use to fix a broken install of Ubuntu in the past...
[03:29] <idlemind324> kimble: sure! i kind of lost track of that sorry. finishing the install now. i'll play w/it a bit and try to catch up w/you tomorrow
[03:30] <OerHeks> !md5sum
[03:30] <Kimble> the20yrlaptop: sudo apt-get check
[03:30] <ActionParsnip> the20yrlaptop: sudo apt-get -f install
[03:31] <Kimble> idlemind324: thanks :) Bye.
[03:31] <ActionParsnip> MonkeyZazu: thats not developed by the official gnome team though, there is a difference
[03:31] <sprinklz> i cant decide on this question: Which of the following would you use to represent airline flights between cities?       list , stack , queue, binary search tree, graph
[03:32] <jtokarchuk> sprinklz: that sounds like a homework assignment
[03:32] <w0_> uhm .. I've got a red circle with a white minux sign on my upper left .. I click it and it dosn't show
[03:32] <w0_> nm meant to clear not paste ..
[03:32] <w0_> however I do need to know how to remove the repository that casued theproblem I \
[03:33] <w0_> hope that makes sense .. anyone?
[03:33] <psychx-> what is the shortcut to the system32 directory in windows? %SYSTEM% or %SYSTEM32% ?
[03:33] <vagothcpp> hey, I am trying to get APTonCD from sourceforge but cannot retrieve it, would someone be willing to try http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/download.html to help me determine if its is client-side
[03:33] <sprinklz> jtokarchuk: it is and ive been pouring over it for about a half hour and i cant decide i think its queue
[03:33] <sprinklz> jtokarchuk: read all the pages for each term listed in teh glossary but cant decide
[03:33] <MonkeyZazu> c u guys l8r
[03:34] <sandyd> vagothcpp: just run apt-get install aptoncd
[03:34] <jtokarchuk> sprinklz, I tend to agree, a queue seems proper
[03:34] <ActionParsnip> psychx-: ask in ##windows for windows support
[03:34] <w0_> nm I'll figure this out.
[03:34] <w0_> ho ho ho
[03:34] <psychx-> yeah
[03:34] <psychx-> im doing that now
[03:34] <psychx-> just thought someone might know
[03:36] <sprinklz> jtokarchuk: yea its just i see the question as how do i say thi....  far removed from programming
[03:36] <ActionParsnip> psychx-: i do know, its just not discussed here
[03:36] <jtokarchuk> psychx-,: %11%
[03:36] <jtokarchuk> ActionParsnip, sorry.
[03:36] <psychx-> lol
[03:36] <psychx-> unfortunately, it is now
[03:37] <jtokarchuk> Still have remnants of my Windows days x.x
[03:37] <psychx-> if i was running windows i would have just checked myself, but i already got my answer
[03:37] <psychx-> which was faster than arguing about it

[03:44] <webchat_770375> ok by
[03:44] <jtokarchuk> that was... surreal.
[03:44] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, sandyd, well feel free to download any music u want from my server
[03:44] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: works well
[03:44] <glitchd_> sandyd, well feel free to download any music u want from my server
[03:44] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, thank you thank you
[03:45] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: I have buddies with SFTP servers with gazillions of files dude ;) thanks for the offer though :)
[03:45] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, is actually an all in one lightweight server i found on the net over the last few days
[03:45] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: wtg man, nice to get the gold :)
[03:45] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, right on
[03:45] <glitchd_> if u like, i could send u a copy of the rar package that contains the server
[03:46] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, or at least point u to where i found it
[03:46] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: now you gotta secure it or anyone scanning you will see the service and either leech or attck
[03:46] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: i use SFTP, it inherent in openssh-server :)
[03:46] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, 1 i dont know how, 2 i dont run it all the time
[03:46] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: could hit the forum and write a how to, share the knowledge
[03:47] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, thats the thing, the only this i had to 2 was forward a port in my router and bam it worked like  charm. no other setup of any kind
[03:47] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, the entire server was contained in a rar file
[03:47] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, i jus extracted it, forwarded a port, and it was working
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> glitchd_: nice and easy
[03:50] <Chotaz> Hey guys, is it adviced to have a massive storage rack attached to your ubuntu workstation/homecomputer?
[03:50] <jtokarchuk> Chotaz: Come again?
[03:50] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, i know i asked already, but would u like a copy of the .rar that i downloaded with the server in it?
[03:51] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, its small and nice to have
[03:51] <Chotaz> jtokarchuk,  I want to mount a rig with disks for storage, and I want this rig to be attached to my workstation/home computer, is ubuntu a good Os for it?
[03:51] <jtokarchuk> Chotaz,  in an array? Ubuntu won't care if it's a hardware array, ubuntu will work just fine. What will it be used for?
[03:52] <shadizzle> hello
[03:52] <psychx-> Is there a WINE channel?
[03:52] <Chotaz> jtokarchuk, I'm an analogic large scale photographer and I need to store my digis somewhere.
[03:52] <atdiehm_lappy> neither banshee nor rhythmbox seem to be able to write to my nano, is there a better program to try and get this working with?
[03:52] <ActionParsnip> psychx-: #winehq
[03:53] <jtokarchuk> Chotaz, I would probably use a QNAP or some sort of NAS device
[03:53] <psychx-> ty
[03:53] <xangua> tried gtkpod atdiehm_ '
[03:53] <ActionParsnip> Chotaz: should be fine
[03:53] <xangua> ¿
[03:53] <jtokarchuk> Chotaz, but yes, when configured, Ubuntu will be fine
[03:54] <glitchd_> ActionParsnip, how was the speed downloading from my server?
[03:55] <atdiehm_lappy> xangua, so is it a known issue then? something about newer ipods that none are syncing with the default apps?
[03:56] <psychx-> glitchd_: I'm maxing out at about 109kB/s.
[03:56] <xangua> wouldn't know atdiehm_ , i don't use devices that don't want to be used with other than appe's ;)
[03:56] <psychx-> glitchd_: But, I can download upwards of 5MB/s or more. (40mbit/s connection)
[03:57] <glitchd_> SEND ActionParsnip c:\users\glitchd\hfs\server backup\hfs.exe
[03:57] <glitchd_> SEND ActionParsnip c:\users\glitchd\hfs\server /backup\hfs.exe
[03:58] <glitchd_> hmm i dont think that worked
[03:58] <glitchd_> psychx-, thats probably because it coming from my laptop, not an actual dedeicated server
[03:58] <glitchd_> psychx-, unless thats a good speed i mean
[03:59] <psychx-> glitchd_: Yeah, it is a fine speed. But, most dedicated servers or torrents would be faster - but at least your server seems stable.
[04:00] <glitchd_> psychx-, indeed, and its awesome because the server was self contained in a rar file. i didnt have to set anything up besides forwarding a port for it
[04:00] <atdiehm_lappy> xangua, just makes me wonder... I push ubuntu on a lot of people, and I wasn't aware of problems with ipod syncing... which would make me be a little more careful with who I push ubuntu on...
[04:00] <Northwoods> how to run windows form ubuntu ?
[04:00] <Northwoods> from*
[04:00] <glitchd_> atdiehm_home, im pretty sure u can install itunes in wine and it would work..?
[04:01] <glitchd_> Northwoods, in a vm
[04:01] <Northwoods> does it work good , glitchd_  ?
[04:01] <atdiehm_lappy> glitchd_, ya know... I've never actually used a machine this fast... so I've never used wine for anything serious... that might be an option....
[04:01] <glitchd_> good enough, i mean u can set everything in it, meaning like the ram allocated to the vm and everything
[04:05] <adam_> lous

[04:16] <jeFalaO> Hello
[04:16] <jeFalaO> any ubuntu experts here?
[04:16] <panshi> yes
[04:16] <jeFalaO> good
[04:16] <glitchd_> jeFalaO, whats the problem?
[04:17] <jeFalaO> can you help me, I think it's probably too complicated but i hope you can help
[04:17] <jeFalaO> i know ubuntu isnt windows
[04:17] <jeFalaO> but i really want to use MS Paint
[04:17] <jeFalaO> i dont knwo how to install an exe in ubuntu though
[04:17] <panshi> wine
[04:17] <shadizzle> wine
[04:17] <EvilResistance> jeFalaO:  MS Paint wont install in Ubuntu no matter how hard you try, even with wine.
[04:17] <EvilResistance> just sayin
[04:17] <jeFalaO> i just try copy from my usb but it doesnt work
[04:17] <EvilResistance> (I tried)
[04:18] <jeFalaO> why not
[04:18] <jeFalaO> what about microsoft excel
[04:18] <EvilResistance> some error about missing critical files that you cant get without a windows operating system
[04:18] <jeFalaO> i want to install ms office too because i dont like notepad in ubuntu
[04:18] <shadizzle> its M$
[04:18] <jeFalaO> there has to be a way
[04:18] <Lucifer_DaGreat> I had ms office10 working under wine, I just told it to use native dlls
[04:18] <panshi> you must load the usb
[04:19] <jeFalaO> i thought ubuntu is open source which means you can get anything to work
[04:19] <is_derek> Has anyone heard of problems with laptop touchpads?  Mine periodically seems to stop working.  Logging out and back in clears it up, so  I don't think it is hardware... I am on 11.10
[04:19] <jeFalaO> ok so i installed wine with package manger
[04:20] <panshi> and ?
[04:20] <jeFalaO> how do i get the exe from usb onto wine
[04:20] <panshi> load it
[04:20] <jeFalaO> with what?
[04:20] <jeFalaO> i dont know command prompt commants
[04:20] <xangua> !appdb | jeFalaO
[04:20] <idlemind324> jeFalaO is it just one .exe file you're trying to run?
[04:21] <jeFalaO> idlemind324: yes it is paint.exe
[04:21] <jeFalaO> ms paint
[04:21] <panshi> mount
[04:21] <idlemind324> jeFalaO do you know the path to your USB drive?
[04:21] <jeFalaO> it is the G: on windows so is that it
[04:21] <jeFalaO> ?
[04:21] <idlemind324> jeFalaO /media/DriveName
[04:22] <jeFalaO> and where do i put that
[04:22] <idlemind324> jeFalaO do you know how to open terminal?
[04:22] <jeFalaO> accessories?
[04:22] <idlemind324> jeFalaO you on 10.04?
[04:22] <panshi> mkdir /mnt/usb
[04:23] <jeFalaO> oh i mount in wine ok hold on
[04:23] <idlemind324> jeFalaO no silly
[04:23] <luis_> Hi everyone
[04:23] <jeFalaO> I tried wine mount /dev/sdc and got ' wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\mount.exe": Module not found'
[04:23] <panshi> mount -t vfat /dev/sda1/mnt/usb
[04:23] <idlemind324> jeFalaO run this in terminal ls /media
[04:23] <Detergentizer> hi.
[04:23] <idlemind324> jeFalaO your usb drive should auto mount so no need to mount it
[04:23] <jeFalaO>  /media is not a command
[04:23] <Detergentizer> what is good gvim for ubuntu
[04:23] <idlemind324> ls /media
[04:24] <idlemind324> ^^ jeFalaO
[04:24] <jeFalaO> what is that?
[04:24] <jeFalaO> one i rand something like that and it erased all my files
[04:24] <jeFalaO> im not dumb
[04:24] <idlemind324> jeFalaO
[04:24] <Besogon> Hello and good morning! Do you know how to check that specific icon is installed in the system? Or get full list of insalled icons?
[04:24] <idlemind324> ls = list files
[04:24] <idlemind324> rm = remove files
[04:24] <panshi> Yes
[04:24] <panshi> right
[04:24] <jeFalaO> ok
[04:24] <jeFalaO> wait i mount there
[04:24] <jeFalaO> ?
[04:24] <jeFalaO> hold on
[04:25] <panshi> OK
[04:25] <luis_> I hope somebody can help me.  I have a problem with my USB drive.  I can't get access to my UBS stora device.
[04:25] <jeFalaO>  mount: can't find /dev/sdc in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[04:25] <idlemind324> jeFalaO you shouldn't have to mount anything
[04:26] <jeFalaO> luis me too but i dont think they will help much i asked just how to get an exe on my usb to ubuntu and they are telling me all these things
[04:26] <jeFalaO> but i think they are just trolling me
[04:26] <idlemind324> jeFalaO if you're not willing to follow instructions / advice i'm going to give up
[04:26] <glitchd_> jeFalaO, exe's dont working ubuntu, unless u install wine
[04:26] <jeFalaO> i am in wine
[04:26] <idlemind324> 1. you need to find out the path to your exe file
[04:26] <glitchd_> then whats the problem?
[04:26] <jeFalaO> mount: only root can mount /dev/sdc
[04:26] <jeFalaO> ???????????????
[04:27] <idlemind324> 2. you need to run wine <path to exe>
[04:27] <jeFalaO> what is root
[04:27] <idlemind324> you don't need to mount anything ... it will auto mount the usb for you
[04:27] <panshi> jeFalaO:you can download a .exe from internet
[04:27] <luis_> ok Jefala0
[04:27] <idlemind324> so open terminal type ls /media
[04:27] <idlemind324> with the usb plugged in
[04:27] <idlemind324> tell me what it says
[04:28] <jeFalaO> im reading this thing on google it says i need root
[04:28] <jeFalaO> says type "su" to get root
[04:28] <idlemind324> either read google or read something from me ... both is only going to confuse you
[04:28] <jeFalaO> so i do and it says i cant
[04:28] <VIPER-II> hey ActionParnsnip... you.. can we have a talk in private?
[04:28] <jeFalaO> doesnt work
[04:28] <panshi> what's the password of root ?
[04:28] <xangua> sounds like you need to slow down
[04:28] <idlemind324> you don't need root and you don't need to mount anything
[04:28] <xangua> (22:28:40) xangua: sounds like you need to slow down jeFalaO
[04:28] <Braden`> "Its a secret to everybody."
[04:28] <Besogon> jeFalaO: su won't work in default configuration in ubuntu
[04:28] <panshi> do you know?
[04:28] <xangua> there is no root password on ubuntu panshi
[04:28] <xangua> !root
[04:29] <Besogon> jeFalaO: use "sudo"
[04:29] <Besogon> instead
[04:29] <jeFalaO> no
[04:29] <jeFalaO> i want root
[04:29] <jeFalaO> just tell me how
[04:29] <xangua> jeFalaO: you don't
[04:29] <glitchd_> sudo su
[04:29] <jeFalaO> listen im not dumb
[04:29] <Baktun13-desktop> jeFalaO type sudo -i
[04:29] <idlemind324> glitchd_ you're only confusing him
[04:29] <jeFalaO> just tell me how to install root
[04:30] <VIPER-II> you can 'create' a new password for root using 'sudo su' or something like that
[04:30] <xangua> sounds like you don't know what you want jeFalaO
[04:30] <glitchd_> idlemind324, ok ill shut up then
[04:30] <jtokarchuk> jeFalaO, no one is insinuating that you are, but you are unwilling to accept help
[04:30] <luis_> xangua
[04:30] <Besogon> jeFalaO: sudo passwd root
[04:30] <xangua> !noroot | Besogon jeFalaO
[04:30] <Besogon> jeFalaO: type new password
[04:30] <tash> heeeeeeelp!!!
[04:30] <luis_> I can see you know more than me.
[04:30] <tash> client's server went down and I'm remote, when he boots, he gets hd0,1 out of disk?
[04:30] <tash> last night it was working fine.
[04:30] <tash> any ideas?
[04:31] <panshi> tash:what is wrong with you ?
[04:31] <tash> haha
[04:31] <tash> what do you mean?
[04:31] <luis_> hi xangua,  there is any way I can get access to my USB storage Drive.
[04:31] <idlemind324> luis_ what version of ubuntu are you using. is your usb drive plugged in?
[04:32] <luis_> my ubuntu is the latest ubuntu 11.10
[04:32] <luis_> I'm very new in this world.
[04:32] <qcjn> hey ! How can i make that compiz works at start up in oneiric ?
[04:32] <idlemind324> is the usb drive plugged in luis?
[04:32] <luis_> yes
[04:33] <luis_> it's my USB flash drive.
[04:33] <idlemind324> ok. if you open your file browser do you see a drive on the left hand side labelled places and you see your flash drive in there?
[04:33] <much13> using the new alpha. where can i toggle on the login screen to use unit 2D?
[04:33] <luis_> no I can't
[04:34] <luis_> some kind of way it's not mount.
[04:34] <Besogon> qcjn: compiz works with Unity only. (Gnome-shell don't support it. Install gnome 2 and you will able to run compiz)
[04:34] <idlemind324> luis_ i don't have unity up and running atm so i can't walk through too much with you. the next thing to check would be to look in the /media directory
[04:34] <qcjn> Besogon, ok thanks
[04:34] <idlemind324> see if there is a folder there
[04:35] <Detergentizer> ???
[04:35] <luis_> I did check that folder but nothing come up.
[04:35] <Detergentizer> ????
[04:35] <jeFalaO> [sudo] password for jefalao
[04:35] <jeFalaO> jefalao is not in the sudoers file. The incident will be reported.
[04:35] <idlemind324> jeFalaO you don't need root or sudo or anything of the nature to run an exe off an usb drive
[04:36] <jeFalaO> how do i get to root
[04:36] <BaW> sudo
[04:36] <robin0800> Besogon: compiz can also be made to work with gnome3 classic
[04:36] <jeFalaO> i just google that
[04:36] <BaW> when your in terminal u type sudo commandhere
[04:36] <idlemind324> jeFalaO if you must no you can obtain a root terminal by typing sudo su -
[04:36] <jeFalaO> idlemind324: then how i mount it
[04:36] <idlemind324> jeFalaO but i repeat to accomplish what you're doing you don't need it
[04:37] <Detergentizer> hello
[04:37] <Detergentizer> ??
[04:37] <BaW> jeFalaO, read up on this about root and sudo commands https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[04:37] <idlemind324> jeFalaO you need to execute the following command ls /media and tell me what the output
[04:37] <qcjn> robin0800, would you know how ?
[04:37] <jeFalaO> ls: cannot open directory /media: Permission denied
[04:37] <BaW> did u do sudo?
[04:37] <qcjn> robin0800, cause now i'm on gnome classic
[04:38] <idlemind324> don't need sudo to run ls /media
[04:38] <BaW> really? thought u did
[04:38] <idlemind324> default perms on /media should be 755
[04:38] <luis_> idlemind324, Do you know some good tutorial to rescue the information I have in my USB Flash Drive?
[04:38] <sauvin> media
[04:38] <sauvin> Grr.
[04:38] <Besogon> jeFalaO: I told you already. Issue the command I wrote. Then type your password then type NEW password for root user. Then you will able to login as root with "SU" command.
[04:38] <jeFalaO> jefalao is not in the sudoers file. The incident will be reported.
[04:38] <idlemind324> luis_ next thing i would try would to be plug it in some other computer other than that i don't know any utils
[04:39] <jeFalaO> what is perms?
[04:39] <Detergentizer> hello
[04:39] <idlemind324> jeFalaO permissions
[04:39] <Detergentizer> i need some help
[04:39] <Detergentizer> i downloaded nvidia driver
[04:39] <jeFalaO> oh i need to change them?
[04:39] <luis_> idlemind324 I already tried that but nothing happened.
[04:39] <jtokarchuk> Detergentizer, What's up?
[04:40] <sauvin> jeFalaO, are you running ubuntu, and are you the one who installed it?
[04:40] <idlemind324> luis_ then your drive is probably just dead
[04:40] <Besogon> jeFalaO: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/09/ubuntu-tips-how-to-login-using-su-command-su-gives-authentication-failure-error-message/
[04:40] <BaW> luis_ or try another computer
[04:40] <jeFalaO> sauvin: yes i just put ubantu on my computer with the windows installer
[04:40] <sauvin> With the WHAT!?
[04:40] <Besogon> :)
[04:41] <luis_> idlemind324,  I try other computer under vista and XP and it said that I need to format my USB flash drive before using it.
[04:41] <jeFalaO> luis_: yes i always format usb drive before using
[04:41] <Besogon> luis_: What file system do you have on the flash drive?
[04:42] <Besogon> ext3?
[04:42] <Detergentizer> rwe
[04:42] <Lucifer_DaGreat> I have raw on mine
[04:42] <Detergentizer> hello
[04:42] <luis_> Besogon, I was using it under Windows platforms.
[04:43] <jeFalaO> i really just need help please im getting tired
[04:43] <jeFalaO> and i need to make a pic to print out for school tomorrow
[04:43] <jeFalaO> but that another thing
[04:43] <jeFalaO> i cant print
[04:43] <jeFalaO> from my ubuntu
[04:43] <jtokarchuk> Detergentizer, What do you need? I seen that you downloaded an Nvidia driver.
[04:43] <jtokarchuk> jeFalaO, have you searched askubuntu.com and the forums for your printer model?
[04:44] <Detergentizer> how to kill xserver so i can install nivida driver
[04:44] <_jgr> lool..
[04:44] <Besogon> luis_: It could be NTFS then. If Windows can't read it don't think that there is an easy way to do it by yourself especially with Linux as NTFS is file system that was totaly developed to use with MS products only
[04:44] <Lucifer_DaGreat> Detergentizer, Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[04:44] <jeFalaO> yes i cannot find my printer information on ubuntu website
[04:44] <VIPER-II> anyone in here has some experience with the software 'fatrat' ?
[04:44] <jeFalaO> but how i print to it thin?
[04:44] <Detergentizer> tyanks
[04:44] <jeFalaO> it just a printer
[04:45] <robin0800> qcjn: edit /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions then edit gnome-classic-session
[04:45] <Besogon> jeFalaO: What printer?
[04:45] <ruser> quetsion about logrotate in ubuntu,  if i manually invoke the logrotate more often than it's scheduled, will the rotation happen only on schedule?
[04:45] <jeFalaO> it is a Epson MX-80
[04:45] <jeFalaO> i need driver?
[04:45] <Lucifer_DaGreat> I have a question for all of you 'experts', why do you guys not know anything regarding linux?
[04:46] <Detergentizer> that did not work
[04:46] <qcjn> robin0800, ok
[04:46] <jtokarchuk> Detergentizer, sudo service lightdm stop
[04:46] <jdtm> ok, how do i add an application to the "open with" list
[04:46] <Lucifer_DaGreat> Detergentizer, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:46] <mkquist> Detergentizer: what did you try?
[04:46] <luis_> Besogon, Thanks anyway
[04:47] <robin0800> qcjn: remove the second part after the ; of line 4
[04:47] <jtokarchuk> Lucifer_DaGreat, if he is using 11.10, it's lightdm and CTRL + ALT _ BKSP is not enabled by default
[04:47] <luis_> Besogon, I will try and maybe will get some tutorial to find the way to get the information under linux operating system
[04:47] <Besogon> ok
[04:48] <jeFalaO> well thanks for the help ill jsut google it
[04:48] <qcjn> robin0800, meaning "notification" ?
[04:48] <is_derek> !root
[04:49] <qcjn> robin0800, this is line 4 "RequiredProviders=windowmanager;notifications;"
[04:50] <Detergentizer> it fail insta
[04:50] <boer> hi
[04:50] <munch13> Can anyone suggest a lighter webcam app than cheese?
[04:50] <Lucifer_DaGreat> camorama
[04:51] <boer> I would like to have some advice on installing ubuntu
[04:51] <jtokarchuk> boer: fire away!
[04:51] <boer> i have an old machine and i know linux can run on machines with low memory
[04:51] <munch13> Lucifer_DaGreat: cool, thanks
[04:51] <lhasa> any ideas why thunar would have no icons when opened w/ gksudo  ? there's no error message (in the console at least)
[04:51] <boer> is this true?
[04:51] <clear`> sorta
[04:51] <jtokarchuk> boer: Ubuntu has a distribution just for this. It's called Xubuntu. How low of memory are we talking?
[04:52] <boer> i dunno what is in this machine but id like to install ubuntu on it
[04:52] <clear`> depends on everything you have running on it, how much memory you have tc...
[04:52] <boer> oh jtokarchuk that may be good
[04:52] <robin0800> qcjn: note then to alter things if compiz is running you need super+alt+right click
[04:52] <boer> i just want to put a useable os on it
[04:52] <jtokarchuk> boer: how much RAM?
[04:52] <sauvin> Boer, find out what the machine has and define for us what you want to do with it.
[04:52] <boer> well i dunno its just in my closet
[04:52] <boer> its a IBM Selectric II
[04:53] <sauvin> Sheah.
[04:53] <boer> its old but i think if i can get ubuntu on it
[04:53] <jtokarchuk> oh dear
[04:53] <boer> it will be workable
[04:53] <Detergentizer> BBC - AtomBBC - Atom - Part 1 of 3 - The Clash of the Titans  - Part 1 of 3 - The Clash of the Titans
[04:53] <sauvin> A selectric is a TYPEWRITER.
[04:53] <qcjn> robin0800, what you mean to alter thing ?
[04:53] <Detergentizer> the distribution-provided pre-install script failed nvidia << error message
[04:53] <jtokarchuk> boer: joke? I thought the selectric was their line of typewriters
[04:53] <boer> ??
[04:53] <jtokarchuk> LOL
[04:53] <boer> no it is definitely a computer
[04:53] <boer> i think it has 512k
[04:54] <sauvin> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selectric
[04:54] <jtokarchuk> everything I look up has it listed as a typewriter. Even the Selectric II.
[04:54] <sauvin> Trust me on this. I remember using the stupid things in high school in the early 70's.
[04:54] <boer> i plug it in
[04:54] <boer> it has a keyboard
[04:54] <boer> i want to install ubuntu
[04:54] <boer> how
[04:55] <jtokarchuk> Not possible on that machine. Sorry.
[04:55] <sauvin> Dude... a selectric has no CPU.
[04:55] <boer> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selectric#Use_as_a_computer_terminal
[04:55] <dr_willis> boot cd... follow directions
[04:55] <sauvin> TERMINAL, maybe. Dunno about that, but a TERMINAL isn't always a computer.
[04:55] <jtokarchuk> boer: Even a trimmed down ubuntu will be chuggy on 512MB, nevermind kilobytes
[04:56] <clear`> toss it out and go buy a $100 machine off CL
[04:57] <sauvin> $400 and a fast trip to Walmart will get you a machine you can chuck Ubuntu on in about twenty minutes flat.
[04:57] <boer> well fine
[04:57] <Lucifer_DaGreat> toss out a selectric?!? it is a classic
[04:57] <boer> i was a little embarrassed to say but i guess you wont listen unless i tell you
[04:57] <VIPER-II> how do u uninstall things with apt-get?
[04:57] <boer> my mother lost her job last month
[04:58] <jtokarchuk> keep the selectric, just don't try to run aynthing on it
[04:58] <boer> my father was killed in 2002 in iraq
[04:58] <jtokarchuk> boer, that's unfortunate, but ubuntu still will not run
[04:58] <Lucifer_DaGreat> VIPER-II, sudo apt-get install <package>
[04:58] <jdtm> how do i add an application to the "open with" list?
[04:58] <boer> my sister left us i have no clue where we think she may have died of drugs
[04:58] <clear`> hm
[04:58] <right> xubuntu install ico ??

[04:59] <jtokarchuk> boer: it is not possible. The selectric only has a serial modem. It will not work.
[04:59] <clear`> your old enough to find some type of work
[04:59] <boer> clear`: i told you
[04:59] <boer> my mother lost her job
[04:59] <boer> my father died in 2002
[04:59] <jdtm> uhh, thats not what i was talking about at all
[04:59] <boer> my sister is dead or on drugs
[05:00] <jtokarchuk> boer: that is quite unfortunate, but we did not cause those issues, and nor can we make ubuntu work on a machine that is not a computer
[05:00] <boer> so i really dont have time for a job right now
[05:00] <boer> please
[05:00] <jtokarchuk> boer: and if you are so destitute, how are you on the internet at this time on IRC.

[05:08] <xangua> !addppa | Detergentizer if you mean from launchpad
[05:08] <VIPER-II> guess not.

[05:11] <urlin2u> jdtm, your clicking on the other applications from the open with and the app you want does not show in the gui are we on the same page here
[05:11] <urlin2u> ???
[05:11] <jdtm> yes
[05:11] <urlin2u> jdtm, what do you want opened and with what app?
[05:11] <pnorman> Which is the appropriate directory on ubuntu with apache2 to add a .conf file to create another site?

[05:12] <jdtm> well i mean

[05:12] <urlin2u> jdtm, you can add a app to the open with in the properties in the right click
[05:13] <tash> does anyone know where smbpasswd -a stores samba users?
[05:13] <qcjn> robin0800, i don't understand what you're saying about "alt"
[05:13] <jdtm> nevermind, i dont think we are on the same page.
[05:14] <urlin2u> jdtm, how are you opening that app as of now?
[05:14] <urlin2u> jdtm, is it in usr/bin or usr/sbin
[05:15] <jdtm> no, i just compiled it. its in my documents in a folder called slade 3
[05:17] <urlin2u> jdtm, I'm just no familiar with that app so details matter here though so make sure you mention this setup.
[05:17] <robin0800> qcjn: in gnome classic to say remove the top panel you hold alt key and right click this stops working if compiz is running

[05:39] <matheu> system>preferences>keyboard shortcuts
[05:39] <tomp711> 'xev' doesn't see a press
[05:39] <matheu> it wont recognize them at all?

[06:05] <ruslan_osmanov> mathieu__, gnome env had "Russian(Russia)" layout there. but here is something very... lightweight by default
[06:07] <amh345> im trying to gpg encrypt a file but i keep getting a prompt "It is NOT certain that the key belongs to the person named in the user ID.  If you *really* know what you are doing, you may answer the next question with yes."   is there a way in ubuntu to have that automatically set to 'yes'?

[06:09] <ruslan_osmanov> how do I edit /etc/default/keyboard in order to add us,ru layouts with winkeys option?
[06:10] <vagothcpp> is there a way to redownload all installed packages to my apt cache?
[06:10] <idlemind324> randomusr i can't give you the exact steps but it sounds like you need to tell apache to process .pl files w/one of the cgi modules
[06:11] <amh345> anyone have any idea on my gpg encrypt question?
[06:12] <vagothcpp> or is there a way to create a list of installed packages, just names
[06:12] <randomusr> idlemind324, using mod_perl but I think I need to configure cgi to somehow recognize/process the files. I've looked on the web but can't seem to figure it out
[06:12] <crazytrane> amh345,  yes | gpg command
[06:12] <crazytrane> lol
[06:13] <amh345> huh?
[06:13] <amh345> LOLOLOLOLO TRLOLOLOLO
[06:13] <idlemind324> vagothcpp you may accomplish what you're after with sudo apt-get check
[06:13] <crazytrane> pipe yes into the gpg comand
[06:13] <crazytrane> lol
[06:14] <amh345> i see something about trust levels
[06:14] <amh345> but i cant pull any info on it.
[06:14] <idlemind324> randomusr are you using the ubuntu server guide? that should get .pl files up and running out of the box for you
[06:16] <amh345> crazytrane: piping yes still shows the prompt
[06:17] <crazytrane> what is the command that you're running

[06:27] <Northwoods> Is there an addon or a panel that i could install in ubuntu 11.10 , which can act like windows bottom task bar

[06:28] <Detergentizer> how do I disable nouveau video ?
[06:28] <Northwoods> Is there an addon or a panel that i could install in ubuntu 11.10 , which can act like windows bottom task bar
[06:28] <sinisterstuf> Northwoods, some docks like AWM or Docky can be configured to behave the way you want, especially in combination with some compiz effects
[06:29] <clear`> add a second panel and add what you need to it?
[06:29] <sinisterstuf> In fact you might be able to achieve this using gnome2.6+compiz alone
[06:29] <Northwoods> sinister, i'll look into it , thanks for help[
[06:29] <sinisterstuf> Northwoods, you're welcome, if you're interested AWN's package name is avant-window-navigator
[06:30] <sinisterstuf> Detergentizer, perhaps you can remove it using Ubuntu software centre?
[06:30] <Northwoods> One more question , i installed  gnome shell , it has feature if i move mouse to top left corner it shows open applications , does it consume too much of memory ?
[06:30] <sinisterstuf> or is that not what you're trying to do?
[06:30] <Detergentizer> tried
[06:31] <sinisterstuf> Northwoods, I don't think so, if your computer can draw the GNOME 3 environment it should have no problem showing you running applications
[06:31] <sinisterstuf> Determine perhaps try reinstalling the driver you *do* want and it should replace this one
[06:32] <sinisterstuf> @ Detergentizer
[06:32] <sinisterstuf> sorry

[06:40] <Braden`> How do I get Unity to start in 2d mode if I start via startx?
[06:41] <theadmin> Braden`: You don't normally startx -- you start lightdm and from there select the proper session.
[06:42] <billhicks> hi
[06:45] <Braden`> Ah
[06:45] <Braden`> So from the console I run:   lightdm
[06:45] <Braden`> and then select the session, and xwindows starts?
[06:45] <theadmin> Braden`: Yes, but you have to start lightdm as root.
[06:45] <Braden`> Ok thanks
[06:45] <Braden`> I will remember that
[06:45] <theadmin> Braden`: Also note that lightdm is oneric+, if you're using Natty or earlier it's "gdm"
[06:46] <Braden`> No, I am using oneric

[06:52] <airtonix> i need to have a desktop icon that when clicked launches gnome-terminal, then executes some commands (like . ~/dev/virtualenv/django-project-one/bin/activate) and then leave the window open so the user can continue typing more commands
[06:52] <helpmeeee> ola
[06:52] <Kimble> Detergentizer: I'm beginning to agree.  Netatalk is bugged, and the kernel has a power drain issue.  I'm thinking of down-grading.
[06:52] <theadmin> airtonix: gnome-terminal -e 'blah && bleh && bash'
[06:52] <Detergentizer> you and me both
[06:53] <crazytrane> me three
[06:53] <airtonix> theadmin: wouldn't that open a second shell session and therefore void the virtualenv i wanted ?
[06:53] <theadmin> airtonix: Oh, hm, makes sense...
[06:53] <theadmin> airtonix: You never said you set a virtualenv xD
[06:53] <airtonix> theadmin: yeah if not for virtualenv then your answer would be ok
[06:53] <airtonix> theadmin: oh but i did
[06:54] <airtonix> theadmin: it is hidden in the parenthesis
[06:54] <h4th0r> Xubuntu didn't work out for me so i switched back to unity
[06:54] <clear`> gnome-shell ftw
[06:54] <clear`> why didnt it work out for you?
[06:55] <h4th0r> gimp is too gimpy so i'm just gonna pay the adobe tax :P
[06:55] <pp7> and run it in windows?
[06:55] <theadmin> airtonix: Oh...
[06:55] <Kimble> no-one know how to pull a single viewable frame from /dev/video0?
[06:55] <helpmeeee> am i here ?
[06:55] <pp7> no
[06:55] <theadmin> helpmeeee: Why yes
[06:56] <crazytrane> kimble i do, but i am trying to remember lol
[06:56] <Kimble> helpmeeee: just ask your question - that's the IRC way :)
[06:56] <h4th0r> http://maketecheasier.com/install-photoshop-cs5-in-ubuntu-maverick/2010/11/02
[06:56] <helpmeeee> i want tiny ubuntu
[06:56] <Kimble> crazytrane: lol, ok. I'll be patient. :)
[06:56] <helpmeeee> very small
[06:56] <Kimble> Reduce the font size.
[06:56] <Milossh> hey; I have dell inspiron 5110(15R) and have serious cpu temp probs(97C when browsing). Is there a tool that actually works? Stupid BIOS doesn't show any power settings
[06:56]  * Kimble holds belly and laughs like a drain!
[06:57] <Milossh> some windows solutions include setting max cpu level at less than 79%
[06:57] <Milossh> 70%, even
[06:57] <crazytrane> lol install streamer from apt-get
[06:57] <h4th0r> adobe is a bit more gaia for me than gimp anyway ... gimp sounds a bit s&m :P
[06:57] <crazytrane> streamer -c /dev/video0 -o output.jpeg
[06:57] <Kimble> crazytrane: aha. I'll give it a shot. ta.
[06:58] <airtonix> theadmin: well apparently xterm stays open for user input after intial command execution
[06:58] <Kimble> helpmeeee: do you mean you want to reduce the size of your Ubuntu install?
[06:58] <theadmin> helpmeeee: Maybe you don't want Ubuntu, then? Give minimalistic distros like Arch or Gentoo a shot. Or if you *really* need Ubuntu, try the minimal install CD
[06:58] <theadmin> airtonix: Neat
[06:58] <Detergentizer> woill not boot asnymore
[06:58] <Detergentizer> it will not boot anymore
[06:59] <h4th0r> debian works great helpmeeee ;)
[06:59] <jatoo> i'm trying to have a script executed as root run a autossh as user.  when i run autossh as user, everything is fine (it connects with no prompts for password or anything, as i expect) but when i run it as root with:   su jatoo -c 'autossh ... it fails to log in!  does anyone know why this might not be working?
[06:59] <debasher> http://debasherhp.tk
[07:00] <theadmin> jatoo: Try: sudo -u jatoo autossh blah
[07:01] <Detergentizer> out of frustration, if he is using oneiric try; sudo rm -fr /

[07:02] <crazytrane> lol ^^ i was typing that as you said it
[07:02] <Detergentizer> hehe
[07:02] <pangolin> Why are we giving out dangerous commands?
[07:03] <theadmin> !danger
[07:03] <Kimble> crazytrane: you are da MAN!  Thanks for suggesting streamer =D
[07:03] <Detergentizer> my ctrl+c and ctrl+v still not working
[07:03] <h4th0r> n00bs don't know how to triforce?

[07:09] <theadmin> debasher: I iz from Russia as well
[07:09] <theadmin> Detergentizer: Um, Ctrl+C is a special combination in the terminal, so you can't really use that to copy
[07:09] <alphaa> i can't run an opengl game on my ubuntu
[07:09] <Detergentizer> i id though

[07:12] <helpmeeee> how to configure the gateware in the terminal for eth0 ?
[07:12] <soreau> alphaa: Apparently your drivers are broken or not installed correctly. You need to properly reinstall them
[07:12] <skilz> How do I install java?
[07:12] <theadmin> helpmeeee: Oh... "gateway", you mean?
[07:12] <soreau> ! java | skilz

[07:17] <skilz> I did it just said "Java Runtime Environment"
[07:18] <__20eyes__> What is the best way to stress test my server with ubuntu?
[07:18] <soreau> skilz: it gave a link
[07:19] <__20eyes__> is there a pink flood command in the terminal?
[07:19] <__20eyes__> *ping
[07:19] <EvilResistance> ping "flood" command?

[07:20] <EvilResistance> __20eyes__:  ^
[07:20] <__20eyes__> i just want to test my server
[07:20] <helpmeeee> theadmin how to reconnect the eth0 after i change the ip manually in the terminal ?
[07:20] <helpmeeee> so the new configurations work
[07:21] <helpmeeee> reset or reconnect
[07:21] <__20eyes__> really, I have better things to do. I just want something to simulate having a lot of users on my site at once
[07:21] <theadmin> helpmeeee: Oh, you wanted to change the IP... You said "gateway"...
[07:21] <helpmeeee> i changed the ip, netmask, broadcast and thank to you the default gateway
[07:21] <helpmeeee> now i need disconnect and reconnect
[07:22] <helpmeeee> in the terminal
[07:22] <__20eyes__> in windows, there is a ping /flood command, what is the equivalent
[07:22] <theadmin> helpmeeee: Okay, what's the big deal... ip link set eth0 down ; ip link set eth0 up
[07:22] <helpmeeee> ok thanks
[07:22] <helpmeeee> haha
[07:22] <EvilResistance> __20eyes__:  check the ping manpage

[07:22] <helpmeeee> thanks again
[07:22] <t3i> i'd like to colorize the output of `rake test` inside active_merchant?  redgreen and turn didn't seem to do it automatically, is there any other ENV_VARS i need to set?
[07:23] <soreau> theadmin: Is that the same as ifconfig eth0 up/down?
[07:23] <t3i> sorry wrong window lol
[07:24] <theadmin> soreau: Yeah, "ip link" replaces ifconfig
[07:27] <__20eyes__> when i run ping "my server" -f    i get ce> 'man ping'

[07:31] <__20eyes__> thanks then
[07:31] <Milossh> hey; I have dell inspiron 5110(15R) and have serious cpu temp probs(97C when browsing). Is there a tool that actually works? Stupid BIOS doesn't show any power settings. some windows solutions mention cpu max should be turned down to ~70%, but I don't get that in ubuntu. What worries me is that this laptop is actually Ubuntu Certified, but I don't get any special tools for it, whatsoever
[07:32] <clear`> Milossh: does your bios have an update that will show temps?
[07:32] <susundberg> Milossh: Are you sure that is serious cpu temp problem -- to me it sounds like quite normal temp?
[07:32] <Milossh> clear`, I installed latest firmware
[07:32] <__20eyes__> only use it outside :]
[07:32] <Milossh> susundberg, well, if I close the lid(I'm using external monitor), it overheats within minutes
[07:33] <clear`> mine gets into mid 90's when browsing
[07:33] <Milossh> it's winter where I am now, so I may try it on -20. maybe it'll have standard working temperature
[07:33] <Milossh> clear`, regular temp for mine when idle is ~58, but I get 85
[07:34] <__20eyes__> clean your heat sync
[07:34] <bc81> Milossh: can you open it see if there is dust on the heat sink/fan area
[07:34] <Milossh> I already cleaned it
[07:34] <__20eyes__> might need to reset the cpu
[07:34] <clear`> did you take it apart and clean
[07:34] <susundberg> Milossh: ok check
[07:35] <Milossh> I also tried several tools for checking cpu temp and trying to get fan run faster, but no success in doing that. No tool seems to work
[07:35] <clear`> Milossh: have you went through the processes and stopped the ones you dont need
[07:35] <__20eyes__> i dont think having the fan run faster is going to fix anything
[07:36] <Milossh> clear`, it's not that.
[07:36] <__20eyes__> unless its running really slow
[07:36] <clear`> tbh it sounds like hardware problem (fan problem)
[07:36] <Milossh> I wouldn't say it's running slow, as I can hear it from downtown
[07:37] <__20eyes__> Sounds like your laptops just reaching its twilight
[07:37] <__20eyes__> they all gotta go sometime
[07:37] <Milossh> __20eyes__, yeah, it's like really old, 2 months
[07:37] <clear`> its only 2 months old?
[07:37] <Milossh> clear`, yes
[07:38] <__20eyes__> well dont you have a warranty then?
[07:38] <Milossh> say 3 months
[07:38] <clear`> did you have heat problems when it first came in?
[07:38] <soreau> ! lmsensors | Milossh
[07:38] <Milossh> soreau, Core 0:         +92.0°C  (high = +86.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
[07:38] <Milossh> Core 1:         +90.0°C  (high = +86.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
[07:38] <clear`> anyone else have temp problems?
[07:39] <Milossh> I know about that, but it doesn't detect fan speed
[07:39] <Milossh> if I run it on Windows though, it doesn't have that probs
[07:40] <__20eyes__> really?
[07:40] <Milossh> but I really can't do my day job on windows, nor like it, nor really thinking of using it
[07:40] <__20eyes__> what temp does it hit on windows?
[07:40] <Milossh> __20eyes__, no, I just don't know what to do and I came here to jerk you around...
[07:40] <soreau> Milossh: What version of ubuntu?
[07:40] <Milossh> soreau, 11.1

[07:41] <soreau> Milossh: Is the cpu actually in high use or are the fans just not running as they should?
[07:42] <Milossh> soreau, can't say for latter, as I don't get fan speed(s), but former doesn't show any outstanding busyness
[07:42] <soreau> Milossh: you have ears, dont you? :P
[07:42] <Milossh> nope, didn't get ears out of the box :)
[07:43] <__20eyes__> apt-get ears

[08:09] <INEEDHELP101> I am trying to install ubuntu on my win XP computer but when i run the wubi.exe it doesn't do anything! HELP!!
[08:09] <giggi88> ciao a tutti
[08:09] <giggi88> !list
[08:09] <apophis_> INEEDHELP101> are you an admin?
[08:10] <INEEDHELP101> yes i am logged in as an administrator
[08:10] <au_fait> backingsly
[08:11] <apophis_> if you open up task manager and look at your running processes do you see wubi in there?
[08:11] <theadmin> INEEDHELP101: Don't ever use wubi...
[08:11] <evil_hog> greetings. i'm trying to install kubuntu x86_64 on my brand new laptop lenovo z570 without success. looks like it doesn't even boot grub. i could boot kubuntu from either usb stick or dvd, but after system installed it just doesn't boot from hdd. just black screen or chosing next device in boot list
[08:11] <theadmin> INEEDHELP101: It will break in 3 freaking days
[08:11] <theadmin> INEEDHELP101: Use a VM if you can't afford a real install for some reasons
[08:12] <INEEDHELP101> okay, well it shows up in the task manager for a few seconds then shuts down
[08:12] <apophis_> INEEDHELP101> wibi is lame but if you want i can probably still help you
[08:13] <apophis_> INEEDHELP101> any chance the file is corrupt?
[08:13] <INEEDHELP101> i tried mounting it from the iso but it will not work either, it told me i needed to download python23.dll which i did and now it just wont boot, i've downloaded it multiple times
[08:14] <apophis_> are you sure that you are using the right python.dll?
[08:15] <theadmin> INEEDHELP101: Well that's just wrong -- WUBI should work right off the bat without needing additional libraries
[08:15] <INEEDHELP101> no i'm not sure, but how would i go about locating that information
[08:16] <giggi88> ciao a tutti
[08:16] <INEEDHELP101> yeah thats precisely what i thought as well theadmin
[08:16] <giggi88> !list
[08:16] <apophis_> theadmin> he might have some how lost this file though
[08:17] <Mr_EE1> good morning
[08:17] <INEEDHELP101> is there any chance that my antivirus would determine the wubi.exe as a virus?
[08:17] <evil_hog> sorry for pushing you, any idea regarding my issue?
[08:17] <theadmin> apophis_: iirc, you can download wubi as a plain "wubi.exe" and it's self-sufficent, that just works
[08:19] <Mr_EE1> i want to install unity together with lubuntu how do i install it on lubuntu 11.10
[08:19] <apophis_> Well, if its not working there has to be some reason, and if that is the error he was getting then it probably has something to do with it.
 why dont you just turn off your anti virus for a while?
[08:20] <INEEDHELP101> do i need python 2.3.7?
[08:21] <bullgard6> '~$ netstat -lu; udp: Local_Addresss=*.bootpc". What does that mean? I grepped in vain for »bootpc« in 'man netstat'.
[08:22] <apophis_> uninstall python and download the latest version and see if that help <INEEDHELP101>
[08:23] <Natecat> im trying to install ubuntu off of a USB flash drive onto a 200GB partiton
[08:23] <Natecat> when i boot into the flash drive a bunch of code comes up
[08:24] <Geoffrey2> anyone know if there's a way to override font selections in the linux version of Adobe Reader?
[08:24] <Natecat> eventually it starts spamming my screen with timeout
[08:24] <papsky> evil_hog, see PM
[08:24] <freedom7> Natecat, how did you make the usb install?
[08:24] <Natecat> anybody know how to fix?
[08:24] <INEEDHELP101> okay here's my problem the wubi downloads fine and when i open it it appears in the task manager for a few secons then disappears. I have tried disabling my firewall and security, I'm using Windows XP SP3 with all updates.
if you boot without the other 200gb hd plugged in does it still do it?
[08:24] <scarleo> Mr_EE1: I guess it would be enough to install 'unity', either through synaptic or 'sudo apt-get install unity', but I've never used lubuntu so I'm not sure
[08:24] <Natecat> the linux USB creator thingy
[08:25] <Natecat> apohis_: its not a seperate HD its a partiton
oh
[08:25] <freedom7> Natecat, i had trouble with that, but didn't get that far, I found unetbootin to be easier and more reliable
try it on another computer and see if it works
[08:25] <Natecat> i have the same problem with unetbooti
[08:25] <Natecat> n
is your ISO good?
[08:26] <freedom7> does the ISO pass MD5 hash?
[08:26] <Natecat> apohis_: how can i check?
[08:27] <Natecat> freedom7: i dont know what that means, sorry
just see if the ISO is the exact same size as it is listed on the website. make sure no files are missing
[08:29] <freedom7> Natecat, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
also, there are different architectures, if you try to use a 64 bit iso on a 32 computer it wont work. you need to make sure your iso matches your computer
[08:29] <Natecat> i have a 64-bit comp and i'm trying to install 64-bit version
[08:29] <Natecat> size is same to the MB
[08:29] <Natecat> \
 try this http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download
[08:31] <apophis_> you might need on of these iso's some hardware doesnt like live cds or somthing idk
[08:31] <Natecat> im not having any trouble with the download
[08:31] <Natecat> my hardware is pretty new
[08:31] <Natecat> i doubt that that would be a problem
[08:33] <scarleo> Natecat: checking the size isn't enough, you need to chekc md5
[08:33] <apophis_> nohttp://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu-cd/11.10/
[08:33] <Natecat> MD5 hashs are verifed
[08:33] <Natecat> there the same
[08:34] <apophis_> you may need this http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu-cd/11.10/ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.iso
[08:34] <Detergentizer> boy og boy
[08:34] <apophis_> it uses a text based installer so it probabl wont crash
[08:34] <Natecat> whats the difference from the other one
[08:34] <Detergentizer> i deletd 11.10
[08:35] <apophis_> Natecat> it uses a text based installer
[08:35] <Natecat> ugh
[08:35] <Detergentizer> i guess 11.10 is superior version of ubuntu but it aint working out for me
[08:35] <Natecat> i having problems with internet
[08:35] <apophis_> Natecat> if you can install windows XP you can do this
[08:35] <Natecat> i installed windows 7
[08:36] <Natecat> a pirated version ofc
[08:36] <Detergentizer> i am curious ... and i no nothing of yer issue ... but Natecat  what ver u run?
[08:36] <Natecat> 11.10
[08:36] <Natecat> thats what im trying to install atleast
[08:37] <apophis_> you got this
[08:37] <Natecat> im download other ISO
[08:37] <apophis_> use the alt installer and see if it works. its not as bad as it sounds
[08:37] <Detergentizer> go figure
[08:38] <tresk> I just installed Gnome Shell, but I only have a Desktop looking like Gnome 2 with panel. In Advanced Settings / Theme / Shell thme option I see a orange rectangle "Could not list Shell extensions" ... HWat does it mean and how to fix this?
[08:38] <Detergentizer> send this sheet back where it came from
[08:38] <apophis_> im running 8.04
[08:38] <apophis_> no joke
[08:38] <Detergentizer> if u smart u will skip 11.10 and save problems
[08:38] <Detergentizer> there is no need to upgraee I think ...
[08:39] <Natecat> im not upgrading
[08:39] <Detergentizer> it will improve nothing but your headache
[08:39] <Natecat> im doing a new install
[08:39] <Detergentizer> Natecat:  donty
[08:39] <lunitik> tresk: it means your graphics driver isn't supported... you are in fallback mode
[08:39] <bullgard6> '~$ netstat -lu; udp: Local_Addresss=*:bootpc". What does that mean? I grepped in vain for »bootpc« in 'man netstat'.
[08:39] <Detergentizer> is there a reason you want 11.10 over 11.04?
[08:40] <Natecat> its newer
[08:40] <Natecat> i would imagine there would be bugfixes
[08:40] <Detergentizer> it dont work well
[08:40] <apophis_> the *.04 releases are always more stable.
[08:40] <Natecat> im too lazy to look at changelog
[08:40] <onre> bullgard6, bootpc is the name of the port. grep bootpc /etc/services
[08:40] <apophis_> they release stable then "cutting edge"
[08:40] <onre> bullgard6, basically that line means that you have some software listening on all interfaces at udp bootpc port
[08:41] <apophis_> 0.4 is supported for like 8 years vs 4 with .11
[08:41] <apophis_> or somthing like that
[08:41] <tresk> Lunar_Lamp: Oh, I have a Nvidia 540 mobile chip. Which drive should I install?
[08:41] <Natecat> im already 25% done with alt download
[08:41] <lunitik> apophis_: there is nothing significant about x.04 compared to x.10 ... they just signify months
[08:42] <Natecat> im not going to improve my headache by download another file
[08:42] <Guest45764> Hi, Does anyone know how to get around installing libqt4? I get stuck at the part where it says " libqt4-core : Depends: libqtcore4 (= 4:4.7.0-0ubuntu4) but 4:4.7.0-0ubuntu4.2 is to be installed" and a few other ones.
[08:42] <lunitik> apophis_: you simply have had better luck with x.04 ... LTS are the only ones that are actually about being stable... and the last LTS I believe was a x.10
[08:43] <Natecat> 11.04 is LTS
[08:43] <icarious> How do I open the Grub menu for Ubuntu? Pressing left shift or esc doesnt seem to work
[08:43] <Natecat> btw
[08:43] <tresk> With an NV 540m gfx chip which driver should I install to get 3D working?
[08:43] <lunitik> Guest45764: unfortunately, unity-2d depends qt and it is the fallback for 11.10
[08:43] <lunitik> Natecat: umm, no it isn't... 12.04 will be... I believe the last was 8.10
[08:44] <Guest45764> so i cant install it then?
[08:44] <Natecat> according to there website
[08:44] <Guest45764> I need to run virtualbox
[08:44] <lunitik> Guest45764: you should be able to do a fresh install if you really want to upgrade
[08:44] <apophis_> no one really knows
[08:44] <Natecat> 11.04 is
[08:44] <lunitik> Natecat: I suggest you go read it again
[08:44] <onre> lunitik, my servers run 10.04 LTS
[08:44] <onre> lunitik, afaik that's the latest LTS
[08:44] <Natecat> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[08:44] <Natecat> ^
[08:45] <onre> iirc there's a new LTS coming out early next year
[08:45] <Guest45764> *sigh* not what I wanted to hear, but it makes sense. What if I install Ubuntu narwall and then install it?
[08:45] <lunitik> Natecat: it said 10.04 is the LTS, not 11.04
[08:45] <Natecat> my mistak
[08:45] <Natecat> we were both wrong
[08:46] <Detergentizer> iit sure does
[08:46] <Detergentizer> geez
[08:46] <conntrack> lo
[08:46] <apophis_> like i said no on knows
[08:46] <onre> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS   look at the helpful infographic.
[08:47] <Guest45764> thanks for the info lunitik!
[08:48] <bullgard6> onre:  '~$ grep bootpc /etc/services; bootpc	 68/tcp # BOOTP client; bootpc	68/udp'.  So "bootpc" is the name of the TCP-Port 68 and  of the UDP port 68 as well?  What is the meaning of the name "bootpc"? It is a "service". But what kind of service?
[08:48] <onre> bullgard6, it's related to network booting of older unix workstations and other devices. incidentally, DHCP server uses the same port.
[08:49] <onre> bullgard6, oh sorry, it does not. it uses 67 which is bootps or something.
[08:49] <bullgard6> onre: Thank you for your help. Using your information I can now continue snooping.
[08:49] <andyn> dhcp uses two ports to distinguish server traffic from client traffic
[08:50] <andyn> the udp protocol is connectionless, after all.
[08:51] <onre> andyn, yup, something like that. i've happily forgotten details :)
[08:53] <rams_pandu> how to install j2me in ubuntu 10.04??

[08:55] <donald> Hello
[08:56] <Guest43067> Does anyone know how to get Paltalk Express to work in Ubuntu?
[08:58] <Detergentizer> dont do it
[08:59] <Guest43067> Paltalk Express worked fine until Adobe updated their flash player.
[09:01] <_hase> Is there anyone here who could help me with a problem I'm having with wine?
[09:02] <llutz_> !anyone | _hase
[09:03] <_hase> See I'm using  wine to run a program that edits the plugins for the game but the program I'm running uses a search patterns for DirectoryInfo.GetFiles that looks like *?...esm but wine doesn't detect that unless I change the fiel name to include a ?
[09:03] <pigiman> hey, at work we have a dev server with ubuntu (most updated), every hour our server is restarting and there are no "wired" things in the logs
[09:03] <pigiman> any ideas ?
[09:03] <_hase> and if I dot that it says that it's an illegal character
[09:03] <Detergentizer> wow, wine is still used
[09:03] <pigiman> we are using ssh to upload files to this server, and we have mysql and apache
[09:03] <pigiman> and php
[09:04] <_hase> Is there another way Dtergentizer?
[09:04] <dazz> hey peeps
[09:04] <Besogon> pigiman: Have you checked cron?
[09:04] <dazz> can anyone recommend which ubuntu or derivative to install on an EEE pc netbook?
[09:05] <pigiman> Besogon: yeah, nothing suspicious there :|
[09:05] <Nom-> dazz: There is a Ubuntu for netbooks
[09:05] <tresk> So many option what to do for installing the latest NVidia driver, but which one ois the best... X:ppa or download driver and install manually?
[09:05] <inad922> Can someone suggest me a program with which I can make some desktop notifications? Like I would like to set a time and a text and I would like the text to pop up at the given time.
[09:05] <bullgard6> pigiman: I do not know what a 'dev server' is. But I am sure that /var/log/dmesg.0 will tell you the cause of your trouble.
[09:05] <Besogon> dazz: I have installed simply ubuntu 11.10.
[09:05] <llutz_> pigiman: "every hour"  always same time/period or more or less "hourly"?
[09:06] <pigiman>  bullgard6 - will check again
[09:06] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:06] <pigiman> llutz_:  - exacly
[09:06] <Nom-> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download <-- see the -netbook- iso's
[09:06] <llutz_> pigiman: check cronjobs twice
[09:07] <llutz_> pigiman: check what time it restarts, what jobs run around that time
[09:07] <pigiman> llutz_:  OK, re-checking
[09:08] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:11] <dazz> Nom: i looked on the ubuntu website and see that they discontinued UNR
[09:11] <dazz> Besogon: I have just finished an install of Pinguy 11.10 on my netbook, and it is lagging big time. doesnt seem to like something???
[09:11] <lunitik> dazz: just as a naming convention, UNR is what became Unity
[09:11] <llutz_> dazz: have a look on lubuntu, should run fine even on weaker hardware. there is no special netbook-distro anymore
[09:12] <Nom-> Yeah, I was about to suggest it was converged now
[09:12] <dr_willis> hmm
[09:12] <Nom-> In 11.10
[09:12]  * lunitik would recommend Xubuntu or Kubuntu over Lubuntu... LXde is not a very good DE at all
[09:12] <dazz> so i i just install unity thats basically the netbook version?
[09:12] <Nom-> Starting with UNE 10.10, the interface was switched to Unity. Due to the desktop version of Ubuntu also being changed to the Unity interface, the netbook edition was rolled into the general Ubuntu distribution starting with Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal and the netbook edition was discontinued as a separate distribution.[1]
[09:13] <Nom-> There you go... Wikipedia knows all :)
[09:13] <Jorky> Anyone know how to set max. cpu speed?
[09:13] <dazz> ah right.
[09:13] <Abhinav1> I am trying Ubuntu 11.10 live Cd and it is asking me to enter username and password.. what should I provide as username and password
[09:14] <dazz> so then question is which of these is going to be the quickest (cpu speed wise): unity, Lubuntu, Xubuntu?
[09:14] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:14] <lunitik> dazz: Essentially, although it is quite different from the first iterations of the netbook interface as well
[09:14] <dazz> its for my mom's netbook, so need something really simple for her
[09:15] <pigiman>  bullgard6 - dmesg is empty
[09:15] <lunitik> dazz: I think she will enjoy regular Ubuntu, although it'll prolly be unity-2d - basically the same, but without 3D rendering, uses Qt but you don't notice
[09:15] <Nom-> Is it bad form to post links to lmgtfy? :P
[09:15] <mrpink57> dazz: they'll all be simple so most mothers are going to make you set it up anyways
[09:15] <bullgard6> '~$ netstat -lu; udp: Local_Address=*:bootpc". How can I explain this result although the DEB program package »bootpc« is not installed?
[09:16] <llutz_> bullgard6: sudo lsof -i :68
[09:16] <lunitik> dazz: Unity makes a lot of effort to save pixels for the small screen size of netbooks... otherwise it feels much the same as old Gnome2
[09:16] <dazz> haha, yeah, its the support i am worried about.. ok. i will install unity quick on pinguy 11.10 and see how it goes.
[09:16] <dazz> thanks guys for the help!
[09:16] <CaptAnon> What are you looking for  dazz
[09:16] <dazz> how do i get it to boot into unity-2d automatically?
[09:16] <lunitik> CaptAnon: he wants a netbook-suitable desktop
[09:16] <mrpink57> dazz: I would do simple ubuntu, not much can go wrong and then just put a few shortcuts on the desktop for internet and whatever programs she wants.
[09:17] <fling> hello! do you use Jira?
[09:17] <lunitik> dazz: it should just choose it... but from the settings menu (the circle icon next to the name on the login manager) you can choose it
[09:17] <llutz_> bullgard6: use "netstat -lup" if you want to see ports and not correspopnding services from /etc/services in the list
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: it'll be like "Unity Low Graphics" or "Unity Fallback" or some such
[09:18] <Jonii> how do I kill my web cam? it activates by itself all the time and uses a lot of power
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: you can just install unity-2d as well
[09:18] <llutz_> Jonii: blacklist webcam modules
[09:18] <CaptAnon> Yeah Is the unity on the new ubuntu much better, I wont be able to try it out for a couple of weeks?
[09:18] <lunitik> dazz: from pinguy, no need to install the whole caboodle to try 2D
[09:18] <Jonii> llutz_: how?
[09:19] <dazz> yeah thanks guys. i have just booted into unity-2d. but there seems to be compositing on it? thought it was no 3d?
[09:19] <lunitik> CaptAnon: It is basically the same, just more integrated with different things
[09:19] <BlackDalek> HI, is it possible to set a page border in Libre Office Writer on only one page in a document?
[09:19] <llutz_> Jonii: find out which kernelmodule it uses,blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/*
[09:19] <lunitik> dazz: it is faux compositing...
[09:20] <Jonii> whats kernel module?
[09:20] <dazz> ah i see, so it just running docky
[09:20] <CaptAnon> Is there anyway to stop files comming up when people type stuff into the unity search bar. I can't let other people use my computer because of it.
[09:20] <lunitik> dazz: no, the dash is implemented in QML
[09:20] <pigiman> OK, we are using Zend Studio to upload our local files to a remote sever which is our DEV server (LAMP server). Files are being uploaded onsave event and by using SSH connection. We are ~6 developers that use this server. Is there any chance that there are "too much" SSH connections or "too much" files are being uploaded and then the server is down because of it?
[09:20] <lunitik> dazz: in -2d at least
[09:21] <Jonii> its "USB Device: CNF9011 (Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd.)"
[09:21] <Jorky> Hello guys. I've got dualcore 2.0 Gb processor and I am using latest Ubuntu x64. I check and installed cpufrequtils but processor speed is stil 1.2 Gb using by system. How Can I fix this that system will use full proc. speed? Thnx. Please Help
[09:21] <lunitik> dazz: On 3D, there is heavy use of Compiz... but that is why they went with Qt, cuz it does much the same stuff without killing the graphics card
[09:21] <llutz_> pigiman: if that "server" is a piece of prehistoric weak and old hardware, maybe. watch systemload
[09:22] <lunitik> Jorky: processors aren't measured in GB... where are you looking that you think it isn't running at peak performance?
[09:23] <Jorky> by cpufreq command
[09:23] <bullgard6> llutz_:  '~$ sudo lsof -i :68; COMMAND= dhclient3;   PID=883;  USER=root;   FD=4u;    TYPE= IPv4;  DEVICE=7242;  SIZE/OFF=0t0;  NODE NAME=UDP *:bootpc'.  So my interpretation is that in the output of '~$ netstat -lu' the identifier 'bootpc' does not identify a program but the portnumber 68. Is this correct?
[09:23] <dazz> ok great, thanks for the info
[09:23] <pigiman> llutz_ :|
[09:24] <dazz> i am in unity 2d, and running much better. i am just going to tweak it a bit. get rid of conky etc... and should be ready to go :)
[09:24] <Jorky> one core speed is 2.0000000 and one is 12000000 but both need to be 200000 by default and I don't know how to setup that
[09:24] <Jorky> becouse that my video is slow in ubuntu
[09:24] <Jorky> so please help
[09:24] <llutz_> bullgard6: correct
[09:25] <llutz_> bullgard6: those port <-> service relation comes from /etc/services
[09:26] <Jorky> anyone here?
[09:27] <nate_> how do i use a already created partiton with the ubuntu installer?
[09:28] <bullgard6> llutz_:  (I had a look in /etc/services before I asked my last question in this channel.) Thank you very much for your help.
[09:28] <scarleo> CaptAnon: I haven't tried it but removing unity-lens-files should prevent files from showing up
[09:29] <ztane> anyone using ubuntu as vmware guest on macos host?
[09:29] <ztane> symlinks do not resolve on shared partitions...
[09:29] <ztane> *folders
[09:29] <Jorky> c'mon guys anyone knows hot to set up proper cpu speed?
[09:29] <nate_> how do i use a already created partiton with the ubuntu installer?
[09:30] <ztane> nate_: hmm, you have an empty partition you want to use completely?
[09:30] <nate_> ztane: yes
[09:30] <llutz_> nate_: iirc the installer has an "expert" or "advanced" mode, when it comes to partitions. there you should be able to specify the mountpoint for your filesystem
[09:31] <Jorky> nate: You need to add user privilegies to that paritition
[09:31] <nate_> what should i set mountpoint to?
[09:31] <nate_> sorry I'm a bit new to linux
[09:32] <llutz_> nate_: whereever you want it to mount
[09:32] <Jorky> sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/paritition and then sudo chmod -R 774 /path/to /paritition I think but I am not sure
[09:32] <bullgard6> Jorky: The Ubuntu kernel will automatically set the proper CPU speed. If the value is not correct in your computer, please report an error to Launchpad.
[09:32] <Jorky> nate: pardon sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/paritition and then sudo chmod -R 775 /path/to /paritition I think but I am not sure
[09:32] <Jorky> well I hate that in ubuntu
[09:33] <llutz_> nate_: if you want to install the system on it, just chose "/" for it
[09:33] <nate_> ok brb
[09:33] <Jorky> ubuntu is very disapointing me
[09:33] <Jorky> very very disapointing
[09:34] <ztane> :D
[09:34] <Jorky> so if I not fix this problem I probably switch to other distro
[09:35] <mrpink57> Jorky: isn't it suppose to be chown -R user:group?
[09:35] <Detergentizer>             shoud i iunstall nvidie kermk
[09:35] <llutz_> chown/chmod something for the installer makes no sense at all
[09:36] <wh1zz0> It's chown -R user group
[09:36] <Jorky> mrpink57: No, you add user to that group lather with gpasswd command
[09:36] <llutz_> wh1zz0: wrong
[09:36] <wh1zz0> But it can also be chgrp
[09:36] <Jorky> I done that and it's working
[09:36] <Jorky> user:user trust me
[09:36] <mrpink57> Jorky: I guess the man page is wrong then
[09:37] <llutz_> user:user because ubunut uses usergroups where username=groupname
[09:37] <Jorky> how to report a bug in ubuntu for godsake
[09:37] <llutz_> ubuntu*
[09:37] <Jorky> I am on ubuntu from long time and oh my god it so fucking complicated
[09:38] <Jorky> and Ubuntu is user frendly? c'mon
[09:38] <wh1zz0> chgrp <group name> /path/to/dir
[09:38] <mrpink57> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[09:38] <Jorky> even basic things don't work
[09:38] <Jorky> wh1zz0: It more than one path to add user to group

[09:45] <html> Jorky,  what do you need?
[09:45] <Jorky> llutz_ 10. I want help but nobody take me seriusly
[09:45] <iceroot> Jorky: i am still waiting for the output
[09:46] <llutz_> Jorky: your attitude makes it difficult to take you serious
[09:46] <Jorky> I cant do tings so quicly cause I am first time from long time in ubuntu
[09:46] <html> Jorky,  what do you need? HeLlo??? am i talking to a bot ?
[09:46] <Myrtti> Jorky: 10? er
[09:46] <mrpink57> if cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors does not show anything then it is not loaded or installed
[09:46] <Jorky> html: My sistem doesn't recognize ful cpu speed by default
[09:47] <llutz_> mrpink57: in that case, he wouldn't get a "command not found"
[09:47] <ztane> there should be a space after "cat" ;)
[09:47] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: But I installed cpugreq-utils
[09:47] <html> Jorky,  tell me what you want and what you have to work with..
[09:47] <mrpink57> llutz_: it would say no such file or dir not command not found
[09:47] <llutz_> Jorky: give us the info we requested
[09:48] <llutz_> mrpink57: correct
[09:48] <llutz_>  10:41 < Jorky> command not found
[09:48] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: Ok OK guys
[09:48] <mrpink57> llutz_: so he did not run the command properly
[09:48] <html> llutz, Jorky  agreed... or i might just leave..if not
[09:48] <llutz_> mrpink57: and refuses to give any info
[09:48] <iceroot> lets stop guessing, if he has usefull infos we can help if not we can not help
[09:49] <Jorky> This gives me a command: conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance
[09:49] <fmoritz> greetings, where might I find a good artist friendly dark grey theme for ubuntu?
[09:49] <llutz_> Jorky: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:49] <mrpink57> that's good news
[09:49] <Jorky> llutz_ 10: yes this gives me : userspace
[09:50] <Jorky> just that
[09:50] <llutz_> Jorky: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:50] <html> Jorky,   what os are you running , and your type of cpu ?
[09:51] <mrpink57> Jorky: the userspace is to be manually set
[09:51] <Jorky> html: for 100x Ubuntu 11.10 x64 with intel dual core 2.0Ghz proc
[09:51] <llutz_> Jorky: sudo cpufreq--selector -g ondemand
[09:51] <Jorky> sudo: cpufreq--selector: command not found
[09:51] <llutz_> Jorky: then check again:        cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:52] <llutz_> Jorky: sudo cpufreq-selector -g ondemand              typo, sry
[09:52] <Myrtti> Jorky: you haven't actually said 11.10 at any time...
[09:52] <Jorky> I said latest ubuntu
[09:52] <html> Jorky,  dont get snobby with me ! i just go in here . im trying to help
[09:52] <Jorky> that means ubuntu 11.10
[09:53] <Jorky> html:sorry but this realy nurves me
[09:53] <llutz_> !attitude | Jorky
[09:53] <Jorky> html: sudo cpufreq-selector -g ondemand  nothing happens
[09:53] <iceroot> Jorky: just post usefull infos in one line and put the name of the person infront of the line
[09:53] <llutz_> Jorky: then check again:        cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:53] <html> Jorky,  care who you talk to like that
[09:54] <Jorky> html: I said sorry ok. I preseate your help
[09:54] <html> Jorky,  cuz by default its all really that
[09:54] <Jorky> html: cat: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_govern: No such file or directory
[09:54] <lunitik> Jorky: thing is, cpufreq just isn't a command... so it seems to everyone you're just making stuff up, you don't even know that CPU's are measured in hertz not bytes
[09:54] <llutz_> Jorky: read again, you cut the command
[09:55] <mrpink57> Jorky: sudo cpufreq-set -c $i -g ondemand; done
[09:55] <fmoritz> what do I use to make my own themes?
[09:55] <llutz_> lunitik: cpufreq-selector IS a command
[09:55] <lunitik> llutz_: yes, but he said 'cpufreq'
[09:56] <html> Jorky,  do you remember the gui govener you can set on the gnome bar  ?  in 10,10?
[09:56] <llutz_> Jorky:  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[09:56] <mrpink57> Jorky: you have to do it twice I believe for both cores
[09:56] <Jorky> llutz: ondemand 2x
[09:57] <llutz_> Jorky: now check frequencies if you put some load on the cpu
[09:57] <Jorky> llutz: what's proper commad for that?
[09:58] <html> system manger Jorky
[09:58] <Jorky> I am first time in Unity so I am litlle bit slow
[09:58] <llutz_> Jorky: like: watch  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq
[09:59] <llutz_> Jorky: there should be graphical tools aswell
[09:59] <Jorky> llutz: Both cores still with 1.2Ghz :(
[09:59] <llutz_> Jorky: did you put some load on the cpu?
[09:59] <Jorky> llutz: I think not  :( How to do that?
[10:00] <llutz_> Jorky: watch some videos
[10:00] <AlanBell> Jorky: time perl -e 'for($i=0;$i<1e9;$i++) { }'
[10:00] <Jorky> Am...what now?
[10:01] <Jorky> I am confused now, sorry
[10:01] <mrpink57> sudo gedit /etc/conf.d/cpufreq you should be able to edit everything in there and it's laid out
[10:02] <AlanBell> Jorky: open two terminals, in one, "watch  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq" in the other "time perl -e 'for($i=0;$i<1e9;$i++) { }'" you should see the numbers in the first one dance about (and probably hear a fan responding to the load)
[10:03] <Jorky> I think its best if someone gives me a link to documetation how to set up core speed becouse I am confused becouse of different answers :/
[10:04] <hackbert130> lol Jorky Troll
[10:04] <mrpink57> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cpufrequtils
[10:04] <Jorky> mrpink57: I done that but no luck
[10:05] <AlanBell> Jorky: just use your computer and forget about core speeds, it is doing it all for you, don't worry about it
[10:05] <llutz_> Jorky: you don't want to have your cpu running on max_freqall the time
[10:06] <mrpink57> Jorky: did what?  go to the bottom at the daemon part
[10:06] <Jorky> llutz so what's the point of proc anway than? I want to use full speed not half of speed
[10:06] <zymurgy> A cooler machine lives longer, and the machine that runs slower generally runs cooler.
[10:06] <mrpink57> I suppose you could just as easily remove cpufrequtils...
[10:06] <llutz_> Jorky: it speeds up if it needs to, thats how it should work
[10:07] <Jorky> mrpink57. I done that procedure but cpu speed is still on 1.2Ghz instead of 2GHz
[10:07] <html> Jorky,  llutz agreed .... and since this is new  os ,  it can cause a lot of trouble..... and youll NEVER know it was this
[10:07] <Jorky> html: so thanx to explain to me that Ubuntu actualy SUCKS
[10:07] <AlanBell> Jorky: ok, in a car that is parked the engine will tick over at about 1000 rpm right?
[10:07] <AlanBell> Jorky: your computer is idle at tickover speed
[10:08] <Jorky> thnx for help guys but I am going to switch back to Arch
[10:08] <netraameht> ...
[10:08] <Jorky> bye
[10:08] <html> Jorky,  then get a flash drive and move files
[10:08] <AlanBell> Jorky: if you drive off (or play a video) the engine respods
[10:08] <html> Jorky,  wait
[10:08] <anAngel> Hello. Anyone to know the easiest way to block access to certain domains/urls over https with transparent squid? I have already done that over the http but https isn't going through proxy. My FW settings are correct for both http and https redirection to the proxy.
[10:08] <llutz_> i should have gone, feeding the ducks ...
[10:08] <Jorky> AlanBell: I havent any problem in Arch with that but in ubuntu omg
[10:08] <AlanBell> Jorky: if arch is running your processor at 2Ghz constantly then it is a problem!
[10:09] <Jorky> I can't even set cpu speed, c'mon
[10:09] <Detergentizer>  basically. i have iot running
[10:09] <Detergentizer> i was able to edit by hand and com
[10:09] <Jorky> AlanBell. Why?
[10:09] <Detergentizer> and compile kernel from command line
[10:09] <AlanBell> Jorky: if your car is parked you don't need to rev it at 6000 rpm, waste of petrol right?
[10:09] <Jorky> I need explenation becouse I want to understand how system works
[10:09] <Detergentizer> 0dont lmknow how good build is
[10:10] <Detergentizer> but it is workng with nvida latest drivers\
[10:10] <MeirD> How can i list file using ls that only have 5 characters?
[10:10] <html> Jorky,  this is  cuz of many thing s chaning and we havent gotin synced ,,,  but i say go to 10.10 or 10.04 lts  so you cant get the "roots " lol for this os
[10:10] <llutz_> MeirD: ls ?????
[10:10] <Jorky> AlanBell: But cpu is not a car and system works much more faster and better with full cpu speed
[10:11] <MeirD> yeah, but use ls to print only files with length of 5
[10:11] <hackbert130> Jorky wrong.
[10:11] <Jorky> why?
[10:11] <Jorky> explain
[10:11] <AlanBell> Jorky: it is a good analogy. Your processor speeds up if it needs to respond to load.
[10:11] <hackbert130> because overheat
[10:12] <hackbert130> thats why ur fan is that loud while decompressing large archives
[10:12] <Jorky> AlanBell: Ok why nobody said this in first place, but I still need some documentation about that
[10:12] <html> Jorky,  just a sec
[10:12] <Jorky> alanBell: and what is point of cpufreq utils than?
[10:14] <Jorky> I'll remove cpufrequtils now
[10:14] <Detergentizer> the guy that was not liking 11.10 as i did u get your issue fixed?
[10:14] <Jorky> removed*
[10:15] <Jorky> So I should be no worry about cpu speed?
[10:15] <AlanBell> indeed, don't worry about it
[10:15] <hackbert130> Jorky: the background is power dissipation in FET`s if you are interested. Everything should be fine with your speed.
[10:16] <AlanBell> Jorky: from the cpufreq-info man page "A small tool which prints out cpufreq information helpful to developers and interested users"
[10:16] <wh1zz0> Hmm
[10:17] <wh1zz0> Guys.... please does anyone know why I keep getting this mixed colored view on my gedit screen? http://imagebin.org/187058 ... Even though I have the theme as green on black (matrix)
[10:17] <Detergentizer>  i have bug to fix
[10:17] <Detergentizer> my igoncs are broke
[10:17] <wh1zz0> Wrong channel?
[10:17] <Detergentizer> everyint looks like a document
[10:17] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: just nobody knows the answer
[10:17] <Nikki_> Hi!
[10:18] <Jorky> .9AlanBell: OK thnx guy a lot finaly we agree on something :D
[10:18] <Jorky> thnx to all
[10:18]  * conntrack does an evil stare
[10:19] <Jorky> cpy and out
[10:19] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: ok, presume it isn't selected text?
[10:19] <Jorky> copy and out :D*
[10:19] <wh1zz0> AlanBell:  Yes it isn;t selected text.. But normally it's supposed to show as green wheather selected or not
[10:20] <html> Jorky, r u still there?
[10:20] <Detergentizer> y are my icons freaked up?
[10:21] <html> Jorky r u still there?
[10:21] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: just that colour scheme? are others like cobalt like that too?
[10:21] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Any hidden character. does gedit have a :set list type option?
[10:21] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: You are somehow correct because when I higlight the white part, it turns green... But this wasn't how it used to function before.. It always showed green wheather text was highlighted or not.. So if this is the case how can I adjust it to function properly.. Just this scheme, yeah
[10:22] <wh1zz0> deej1976: How do you mean?
[10:22] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: something specific to that document?
[10:23] <deej1976> wh1zz0: if you open the file in vi you might see an hidden characters before your second paragraph
[10:23] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: I just checked the cobalt, it works fine.. But this matrix keeps showing me partial white which is quite irritating
[10:23] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Really?
[10:24] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Okie after I do vi file.txt what do I look for as hidden and how can I fix this?
[10:24] <deej1976> in a terminal: vi textfilename.txt
[10:24] <wh1zz0> AlanBell: All documents act this way, not just the specific document
[10:24] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Done
[10:24] <Detergentizer> nevermind
[10:24] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Is it all documents?
[10:24] <AlanBell> wh1zz0: all from line 30?
[10:25] <Detergentizer> i fixed it by resetting desktop desktp file
[10:25] <Detergentizer> .unity
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976: I just opened another txt file using vi and I see something at the end of each line.... ^M
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Strange.. what does that mean?
[10:26] <deej1976> wh1zz0: It's a dos carridge return
[10:26] <wh1zz0> deej1976:  Also, how do I exit vi? ctrl x doesnt work
[10:27] <iceroot> wh1zz0: should be a windows-file with there newline
[10:27] <deej1976> wh1zz0: esc esc :q!
[10:27] <wh1zz0> deej1976: iceroot:  Uhmm.. okie cool.. So that has nothing to do with this issue
[10:27] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Is that the hidden character you mentioned?
[10:27] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Not if it's happen to all files from line 30.
[10:28] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Line 30? Why line 30?
[10:29] <CaptAnon> Ctrl q?
[10:30] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Sorry something AlanBell said to you. Does this happen with other documents?
[10:30] <wh1zz0> deej1976: AlanBell:  Oh you seem to be right about line 30, not sure why line 3 though but all the files I've opened so far have these inconsistencies after line 30
[10:31] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yes, all other documents
[10:31] <wh1zz0> All documents opened with gedit

[10:34] <admin123> #ubuntu-ru
[10:35] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Have you tried removing your current gedit configuration?
[10:35] <wh1zz0> The theme?
[10:35] <wh1zz0> Or the default config in preferences
[10:35] <wh1zz0> ?
[10:36] <deej1976> wh1zz0: default config in preferences
[10:36] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Possible the theme as well.
[10:38] <wh1zz0> deej1976:  Yes I have.. when I remove the theme it goes back to the classic
[10:39] <deej1976> wh1zz0: And the documents are correct highlighting?
[10:39] <wh1zz0> deej1976: But I don't like the others, I see better with green on black background
[10:39] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yea.. the documents highlight correctly without a single error on the others
[10:39] <deej1976> wh1zz0: So it looks theme related, and if you reply the theme?
[10:40] <CaptAnon> can I use ssh to connect to a computer over the internet, and How would I find out how to do this?
[10:40] <wh1zz0> Let me try to reapply
[10:40] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: ssl -l ip
[10:40] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: where -l is the username
[10:40] <CaptAnon> thanks wh1zz0
[10:40] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Still get same error
[10:41] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: ssh -l IP
[10:41] <wh1zz0> not ssl*
[10:41] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: YW
[10:41] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Is it default theme?
[10:41] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Nah, not the default
[10:41] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Have you got a URL for it?
[10:42] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Ever since I've been on natty, that theme has worked and showed up flawlessly.. Yesterday I upgrded to oneiric
[10:42] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Yeah one sec
[10:43] <deej1976> wh1zz0: gedit went from 2.30.4 to 3.2.1
[10:43] <wh1zz0> Owh
[10:43] <wh1zz0> Really?
[10:44] <wh1zz0> So I automatically have a new version of geddit
[10:44] <wh1zz0> Uhmm... might be where the problem lies.. maybe I'd have to play with the highlight mode options a bit
[10:44] <deej1976> wh1zz0: I've got a natty and oneiric and just check the versions
[10:44] <Idsme> anyone can help me with a installing problem oracle calendar? it says : strings: '/lib/libc.so.6': No such file
[10:44] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Or what do you think?
[10:44] <bullgard6> UpdateManager recommends: "Select the filter »Faulty Package" in Synaptic to show the rogue package. Where is the filter »Faulty Package« to be found in Synaptic 0.75.2ubuntu7?
[10:45] <deej1976> wh1zz0: Look theme related, if you got back to where the theme came from it might have an updated version.
[10:45] <wh1zz0> deej1976: Exactly what im checking

[10:46] <CaptAnon> wh1zz0,  Why did you say -l is username?
[10:47] <wh1zz0> -l literally means login
[10:47] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: ssh username@hostname is normally sufficient
[10:47] <Detergentizer> *meant
[10:47] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: e.g ssh -l ip/hostname or the method AlanBell pasted also works
[10:48] <deavid> hi, i have a problem. I installed Ubuntu from Windows a year ago, and seems that it didn't created a partition at all, because i see /dev/loop0 mounted on /. When i installed that, i assigned 30Gb and now i want to resize it... how i can do that?
[10:49] <AlanBell> deavid: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_resize_the_virtual_disks.3F
[10:49] <CaptAnon> I don't get it
[10:49] <bullgard6> deavid: You can resize a partition. What is the name of the partition you want to resize?
[10:49] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: maybe describe the scenario a bit more?
[10:49] <AlanBell> bullgard6: it is wubi, not a partition
[10:50] <deavid> bullgard6: i believe AlanBell spotted the problem. It's a virtual disk. I'm going to follow the guide
[10:50] <CaptAnon> what does the -l wh1zz0  mentioned do?
[10:51] <amcsi_work> hello
[10:51] <CaptAnon> does it just use the same login name I am logged in currently for the ssh
[10:51] <amcsi_work> I booted my ubuntu without a monitor and it works fine for ssh and x and stuff. Now I want to attach a monitor to it, but it doesn't display anything
[10:51] <AlanBell> CaptAnon: by default it uses your current login name, yes
[10:51] <amcsi_work> How can I make it use the monitor by restarting fewer tasks as possible?
[10:52] <CaptAnon> Thanks
[10:52] <AlanBell> chances are you want to change that, which you can do by "ssh -l myname hostname" or "ssh myname@hostname"
[10:52] <wh1zz0> for instance if you want to ssh to a machine with the ip 127.0.0.1  and login or username as root.. you can either do A) ssh root -l root 127.0.0.1 OR ssh root@127.0.0.1

[10:57] <qxt> Any recomendations for a 120GB ssd? Using Ubuntu GNU/Linux 3.1.0-1. SLiM DM, xfce as my DE, Compiz for composting windows manager and Emerald as wm decorator. On a Z68 mobo, SB 2600 cpu with 32 GB RAM.
[10:57] <Gentoo64> qxt: google it
[10:57] <Gentoo64> research them
[10:58] <Gentoo64> i have an ocz vertex 2 which is quite old now still fast. some have better sequentials than randoms.. youll have to look into it
[10:58] <harsh343> is it possible to login in gmail through terminal ubuntu
[10:58] <Gentoo64> harsh343: something like alpine mail
[10:59] <harsh343> Gentoo64, yes ot not ?
[10:59] <harsh343> or*
[10:59] <Gentoo64> yes
[10:59] <iceroot> harsh343: mutt, w3m, lynx
[10:59] <Gentoo64> sorry, thought you meant just read mail
[10:59] <harsh343> iceroot, what is this ?
[11:00] <deper29> Can someone help me? I seem to have removed all of the kernels from my system, and now only have the option of memtest or windows. is it possible to reinstall a kernel from a live cd?
[11:00] <qxt> Gentoo64 lol, I have read everything on the net about IOPS etc. Seems the Sandforce 22xx suck ... for Windows. Just thought I would give Ubuntu a spin. Kind of tired of aliment issues, noop and ext4 not picking up TRIM.
[11:00] <iceroot> harsh343: cli-tools for reading mails/browsing websites
[11:00] <harsh343> iceroot, ok
[11:00] <Gentoo64> qxt: i use noop and ext4, add discard and trim works
[11:01] <iceroot> deper29: should be possible with a live-cd and a later chroot for the system
[11:01] <harsh343> iceroot, so i need to install cli-tools like mutt
[11:01] <CaptAnon> what should happen if I type ssh IP?
[11:01] <Gentoo64> qxt: and sandfoce is one of the best controllers
[11:01] <qxt> Gentoo64 do you use a Sandforce controller? If so any issues
[11:01] <deper29> how would I do that?
[11:01] <deper29> I'm a noob and messed this up :(
[11:01] <Gentoo64> qxt: yes the vertex2 is sandforce and its been flawless
[11:01] <Gentoo64> had it since 09
[11:01] <iceroot> harsh343: mutt is a cli-mailclient
[11:02] <harsh343> ok
[11:02] <iceroot> harsh343: if you want to use it you have to install it "sudo apt-get install mutt"
[11:03] <CaptAnon> wh1zz0,   what should happen if it just but ssh IP?
[11:04] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: Lol.. try it and see
[11:04] <CaptAnon> nothing?
[11:04] <qxt> Gentoo64 looking at a OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS SATA III. Some say it really sucks and Windows ppl tend to like them. Good to hear you dont have issues with your sandforce controller
[11:04] <wh1zz0> CaptAnon: It'd connect but will immediately ask you for a password and even if your password is correct it will not log you in
[11:04] <CaptAnon> oh wait I got something? a timeout
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: ive actually read that the vertex 2 is better for randoms than the vertex 3 and its a lot cheaper
[11:05] <CaptAnon> Can I connect to my own IP?
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: i havent researched much since i bought mine though
[11:05] <harsh343> iceroot, some proble occur during installation
[11:05] <harsh343> http://pastebin.com/JxzmfV6g
[11:05] <Gentoo64> qxt: but the vertex drives are definately some of the best rated
[11:05] <CaptAnon> I was using my own IP would that stop it working?
[11:05] <qxt> Gentoo64 the return rate is 4.6% on the OCZ ssd devices =/
[11:06] <Gentoo64> hmm idk :s like i say ive had mine for years and its as fast as when i bought it, ive done secure erase on it way too many times too
[11:06] <qxt> Gentoo64 that does not mean much though since most ppl are not using *nix machines
[11:06] <Gentoo64> windows is no different
[11:07] <Gentoo64> still trims
[11:07] <Gentoo64> just when its idle rather than on the fly afaik
[11:08] <qxt> Gentoo64 I am guessing you are using discard in /etc/fstab
[11:08] <Gentoo64> yeah, discard,noatime
[11:08] <Gentoo64> and noop and ext4
[11:10] <ledzgio> hi to all
[11:10] <ledzgio> anyone can help me?
[11:10] <ledzgio> with a ethernet driver?
[11:11] <Gentoo64> qxt: i update the firmware on my drive every time ones released, sometimes theres stability updates
[11:11] <harsh343> iceroot, there ?
[11:11] <andyou> Hi guys!
[11:11] <Gentoo64> qxt: tbh id go for it theyre good
[11:12] <ledzgio> anyone have problems with atheros 8151 with kernel 3 on ubuntu oneiric?
[11:12] <ledzgio> ethernet card
[11:12] <CaptAnon> Ok just wondering, when people join it pops up somthing like mailto:joo@85.233.233.142 if i guessed his password I could get into his computer
[11:13] <iceroot> harsh343: you have software-center or something similar open? if so close it first
[11:13] <iceroot> !details | ledzgio
[11:13] <Gentoo64> ledzgio: i gogoled it and whats the problem, does it work but its slow / cuts out? nto work at all?
[11:14] <ledzgio> ok im going to explain my problem
[11:14] <harsh343> iceroot, not at all
[11:14] <ledzgio> I have a problem with my onboard ethernet card
[11:14] <ledzgio> Atheros AR8152 driver atl1c
[11:14] <qxt> Gentoo64 I might just go for a Sandforce based ssd then. The idea of a MLC NAND seems kind of iffy but the SLC Intels cost way to much atm. Do you really get sequential read speeds close to 500 mb/s ?
[11:15] <ledzgio> on ubuntu 11.10 with kernel 3.0.14
[11:15] <ledzgio> latest kernel
[11:15] <ledzgio> the problem is that when i download lots of data my ethernet card gets disconnected
[11:15] <ledzgio> and I have to restart network-manager service or rmmod module and modprobe it again
[11:15] <ledzgio> its really annoying
[11:15] <ledzgio> i can surf internet
[11:16] <jnwhiteh> If an application has no windows open, there doesn't seem to be anything in the unity dashboard that shows it as being active.. is this intentional? Is there a better way to find out which applications are running?
[11:16] <ledzgio> but if I download with deluge for ecample
[11:16] <Gentoo64> qxt: not on the vertex2, on the vertex3 id guess you do. i get the rated sequential speeds on my drive. dont be put off by mlc, the sandforce drives are very high rated and reliable and the controller is decent. just get one :)
[11:16] <ledzgio> net card gets disconnected after a while
[11:17] <Gentoo64> qxt: the vertex3 has higher sequentials than the vertex2, but worse randoms (if i remember right) ofc with ssd for general use randoms are more improtant
[11:17] <ledzgio> if I download at slow speed its dont happen
[11:17] <ledzgio> if I download fast it happen
[11:17] <ledzgio> s
[11:17] <Gentoo64> qxt: but im not 100% sure on the vertex3s stats
[11:17] <ledzgio> any thoughts?
[11:17] <jnwhiteh> For example, I've got empathy open, but if I have the contacts window closed and no active chat windows, the application still appears to be running.. so I can still get notifications for it. It's quite confusing =/
[11:20] <ledzgio> guys
[11:21] <Gentoo64> ledzgio: have you googled it much?
[11:21] <ledzgio> yes for 2 days
[11:21] <ledzgio> everything
[11:21] <ledzgio> and seems to be a problem for others too
[11:22] <ledzgio> but no sulutions
[11:22] <Gentoo64> hmm
[11:22] <ledzgio> someone have fixed compiling the drivers
[11:22] <Gentoo64> dont look like your in luck then
[11:22] <ledzgio> but I have found drivers just for kernel 2.6.x
[11:22] <Gentoo64> ok, maybe you need to manually install a driver then
[11:22] <ledzgio> and not for 3
[11:22] <Gentoo64> well it might work, i have no idea
[11:22] <ledzgio> i cannot find drivers suitable for kernel 3.x
[11:22] <qxt> Gentoo64 only reason I care at all about sequential speeds is that I do a lot of video editing. Like you point out though IO on smaller data is generally much more important. My 4xF3 HDD still has a 12ms crappy seek time. The ssd at 0.1 ms looks awesome.
[11:23] <Gentoo64> qxt: if its your first ssd youll be amazed :)
[11:23] <Gentoo64> qxt: do what i do, use ssd for general os, and a big hdd(s) for big files / sequentials
[11:24] <Gentoo64> wear and tear isnt much of an issue on modern ssds
[11:24] <Gentoo64> but still pointless if you have hdds with good speed for big files
[11:24] <Braden`> Whenever I type:  lightdm
[11:25] <Gentoo64> qxt: i use the samsung f3 as well (only 1 though)_
[11:25] <Braden`> Whenever I type:  lightdm  --  It tells me, "Can't open display!"
[11:25] <qxt> Gentoo64 yup my first. Been using RAID 0 with 4 HDDs for a while. Well looks like I run out and pick up that OCZ that can use the SATAIII.
[11:25] <Braden`> But startx runs just fine
[11:25] <Braden`> How do I fix this error?
[11:26] <Gentoo64> qxt: go for it. the ocz forums sometimes have some useful info about the technical stuff with the drives, basically saying theyre good lol
[11:26] <secretsneeper> can someone who knows backtrack mssg me
[11:26] <Stanley00> Braden`: try "DISPLAY=:0 lightdm"
[11:26] <Gentoo64> secretsneeper: join #backtrack-linux
[11:26] <qxt> Gentoo64 take it the bad stuff get the ban hammer =)
[11:26] <Gentoo64> lol nah
[11:27] <secretsneeper> i know
[11:27] <secretsneeper> they suck
[11:27] <Gentoo64> secretsneeper: google then, bT isnt supported here
[11:27] <secretsneeper> all asleep and expect me to have fell out of the womb with linux command knowledge
[11:27] <Gentoo64> BT has a lot of docs and guides
[11:27] <Braden`> Stanley00:  It just takes me back to the screen that says "Can't open display!"   I have to then press ctrl+f1 to get back to console
[11:27] <secretsneeper> gotcha
[11:28] <qxt> secretsneeper what do you need to know. Did a lot of dev work on BT back in 2009
[11:28] <secretsneeper> just interested in metasploit
[11:28] <secretsneeper> would like it explained if ur interested
[11:28] <njoel> hi everyone, could anyone tell me how to install Dnsgraph in Ubuntu?? thanks
[11:28] <Daemon_Byte> I have a freshly installed ubuntu box with an nvidia 210 graphics card installed. I am trying to get twinview to work so I can use 2 monitors however I keep hitting a problem. I open up the nvidia config panel, enable the second monitor and they both come up. Then the menu across the top and the bar down the left vanish and I am unable to do anything.
[11:29] <Stanley00> Braden`: are you sure you startx already, looks like it didnt start
[11:30] <Stanley00> Braden`: did Ctrl+Alt+F7 show up a graphical screen?
[11:30] <qxt> secretsneeper The metasploit framework is god sent. Use it with burp, splmapper and you will be like monkey with a machine gun!
[11:30] <Gentoo64> lol
[11:30] <jamil_1> hi all, I have installed MS Office 2007 via PlayonLinux. I want to change file association to MS Office for docx, pptx etc
[11:31] <Gentoo64> theres a basic guide somewhere on metasploit
[11:31] <jamil_1> suggestions ?
[11:32] <secretsneeper> --qxt possibility of using metasploit against say a school server
[11:32] <secretsneeper> built in exploits for servers?
[11:32] <Braden`> Stanley00:  No, I haven't run startx yet.  Usually it works though.  I am wanting to fix it so lightdm will start when I reboot instead of outputing "Can't open display!"
[11:33] <Daemon_Byte> anyone know how to help me with this screen issue? I would hate to have to put windows on it but it needs to be useable by the end of the day
[11:34] <Stanley00> Braden`: hmm I dont know much about this kind of problem, how did you install your system?
[11:35] <Braden`> Normal install
[11:35] <Braden`> but
[11:35] <Braden`> This problem happened when I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.11
[11:35] <Braden`> Interestingly gdm works
[11:37] <Stanley00> Braden`: hmm, so upgrade may cause the problem here, I think you should install 11.10 freshly...
[11:38] <Stanley00> !clone | Braden`
[11:39] <html> upgrading causes  alot of problems  one way or the other
[11:40] <Braden`> Well
[11:40] <Braden`> gdm does the job
[11:41] <Braden`> even if it is obsolete
[11:42] <html> its like a famous old car,,, but if we fixed it up in the first place we would be in this mess
[11:44] <VIPER-II> Html: i think that if users are 'gratefull' enough for the effort that somebody did to create a car in the first place, programmers shouldn't be afraid of consequences of bringing out patches and fixes.
[11:44] <VIPER-II> Programmers biggest headaches are spoiled users.
[11:44] <VIPER-II> <-- Programmer having a bad day!
[11:45] <html> agreed, but i like to make it a better one  and future proof it,,, i love this old thing ,,,  and it does the job very well....
[11:46] <Jonii> okay, 11.10 is full of bugs
[11:47] <html> first -time windows user (family ) thinks its windows (XP)  if setup right
[11:47] <Jonii> anyone know if i can somehow restart unity and stuff like that?
[11:47] <html> Jonii,  i have been trying to tell u that
[11:47] <Braden`> I've not encountered many bugs
[11:47] <Braden`> Other than the display manager issue
[11:47] <njoel> braden can you please help me with how i can Dnsgraph is installed in Ubuntu?
[11:48] <html> well if you hardware is fairly new the fine,,
[11:48] <Braden`> Probably use apt-get
[11:48] <Jonii> html: when? sorry, i've missed that
[11:48] <z3bra_> .org
[11:48] <html> Jonii,  sorry i thuoght u were some one else
[11:49] <Jonii> okay, so i should probably use some other distro if i want something that works?
[11:49] <Jonii> debian, maybe?
[11:49] <html> Jonii,   but still 10.10 and 10.04 is very well know , documented and can ask just about anyone how to find something without a bug stoping you
[11:50] <Braden`> Someone is trolling
[11:50] <Dmitry> ololo
[11:50] <html> Jonii,  no i not
[11:51] <html> its slow it here
[11:51] <Jonii> anyway, how do i get unity running again?

[11:52] <secretsneeper> ?
[11:52] <secretsneeper> ?
[11:52] <deej1976> Jonii: What are you currently in?
[11:54] <html> secretsneeper,  huh? what do you need?
[11:54] <raven> why does grub2 always install itself to the live/install-system (usb-drive) instead of to the destination system?
[11:55] <html> maybe chainloading?
[11:55] <Jonii> deej1976: something that resembles broken down unity
[11:56] <deej1976> Jonii: So you want to reset to defaults?
[11:56] <Jonii> cant close windows, cant change focus from this window, cant do anything besides talking here
[11:57] <html> u could be stuck the other way around
[11:57] <deej1976> Jonii: And if you reboot?

[12:47] <biopyte> Is there a way to display Active-X content in Firefox?
[12:47] <biopyte> Any plugins, packages ...?
[12:48] <Pici> biopyte: No.  You *might* be able to do it under WINE. But otherwise you'd need a virtual machine running windows.
[12:49] <Ryukoji> biopyte:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=830559 your question here
[12:49] <biopyte> Pici, ok
[12:49] <ThSenior> this is what i get when running from terminalÈ http://pastebin.com/kGarw59V
[12:50] <biopyte> even running IE in wine is no guarantee, i guess.
[12:51] <theadmin> Pici, biopyte: IIRC, there's a Firefox plugin which handles limited ActiveX
[12:51] <theadmin> Don't remember the name
[12:51] <Pici> theadmin: On Linux?
[12:52] <theadmin> Pici: I do remember having that for whatever reason around a year ago, and since back then I'd be running Ubuntu... yes
[12:52] <Pici> theadmin: Interesting.

[13:00] <dr_willis> Milossh:  you using the gnome classic thang?
[13:00] <Milossh> dr_willis, yep, gnome 3, or gnome-shell
[13:00] <geirha> meco: Ah, well "Ubuntu Software Center" should be in the menus somewhere
[13:00] <dr_willis> Milossh:  err.. the gnome classic is not the same as gnome-3
[13:00] <meco> geirha: I'm trying out gimp now
[13:00] <dr_willis> I recall gnome-3/gnome-shell having some panel at the bottom with notification icons
[13:01] <Milossh> I installed gnome-shell, logged out, and then logged in choosing gnome

[13:02] <kio_http> Hi my hibernate is not working on Kubuntu 11.10
[13:05] <kio_http> Anyone?
[13:05] <theadmin> kio_http: Do you have a swap partition? Is it mounted?
[13:05] <dr_willis> is your swap partiton larger then your ram.
[13:06] <kio_http> theadmin: Yes I do and it is mounted
[13:06] <KingPin> hello all using 11.10 x64, trying to compile from source for a program i get the following error : /usr/bin/ld: warning: libcrypto.so.0.9.8, needed by /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.6.1/../../../../lib/libmysqlclient_r.so, may conflict with libcrypto.so.1.0.0    | unfortunately it seems mariadb has installed openssl.0.9.8 along with my 1.0.0, any ideas how to resolve this?
[13:07] <KingPin> thanx.
[13:07] <kio_http> theadmin: I have two Identical netbooks with Kubuntu 11.10 both have same package setup the only difference is on one of the I have home folder encryption on. That one has hibernate not working
[13:08] <biopyte> is there an application that simulates a mouse click to a specific spot on the screen?
[13:08] <theadmin> kio_http: Um, I'm not sure if that's got anything to do with it -- can you try it as a user which's home folder ain't encrypted/
[13:08] <biopyte> and will do so, lets say, every 5 minutes
[13:08] <biopyte> hope, i expressed myself clearly
[13:09] <dr_willis> wanting to reload a web site?
[13:09] <biopyte> how would you call such a thing
[13:09] <biopyte> ?
[13:09] <biopyte> yes
[13:09] <biopyte> a flash site
[13:09] <biopyte> not the browser tab
[13:09] <bullgard6> UpdateManager recommends: "Select the filter »Faulty Package" in Synaptic to show the rogue package. Where is the filter »Faulty Package« to be found in Synaptic 0.75.2ubuntu7?

[13:09] <FC1> anyone here running an intel or sandforce SSD? i'm trying to figure out how to enable the on-board AES encryption?
[13:09] <kio_http> theadmin: I only have one user, (excluding root etc)
[13:09] <dr_willis> 'mouse scripting' and ive seen firefox plugins that do similer tasks.
[13:09] <mintux> I would like to extract bookable ubuntu iso on my hard driver .then append some extra downloaded package and guide and themes and ... in a directory and put beside the ubuntu files and directory. after that I would like to write those files on DVD .but it can not boot. how can I make boot able DVD from extracted ubuntu iso + my extra files ?
[13:09] <theadmin> kio_http: Create a new one then, what's the big deal with a simple "adduser"
[13:09] <dr_willis> !remaster | mintux
[13:09] <biopyte> dr, got it, will check them out, thanks
[13:10] <kio_http> theadmin: Useless as suspend to disk from KDM (without logon) does not work

[13:11] <nixmaniack> which is the channel to ask PPA related question?
[13:11] <dr_willis> !ppa
[13:11] <dr_willis> hmm. never seen a ppa specific channel.
[13:12] <nixmaniack> dr_willis, I want to package modified version of app in my ppa, and i need help related to that
[13:13] <harsh343> where is error log in apache2 I am using linux ubuntu ?
[13:13] <ejv> /var/log/apache2 probably
[13:14] <ejv> in your apache site configs you *can* configure alternate error paths, in which case... who knows where you put them!
[13:15] <ThSenior> how can i change to 16bit color?
[13:16] <ejv> you try xorg.conf?
[13:16] <ThSenior> cant find this file...
[13:16] <ejv> /etc/X11/ ?
[13:16] <dr_willis> you can make one.. but why do you need to change to 16bit color?
[13:17] <MeQuerSat> xorg.conf can be found in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:17] <ThSenior> its full in google about it but last ubuntu seems dont have it
[13:17] <ThSenior> nope. there isnt
[13:17] <ejv> that's because this is the matrix
[13:17] <dr_willis> The latest versions of X for the last 2-4 releases of ubuntu have not needed a xorg.conf by default.
[13:17] <ejv> there is no xorg.conf, realize the truth.
[13:17] <dr_willis> X auto configures for the most part.
[13:17] <Milos_SD> Hi
[13:17] <osse> I want to change the default keyboard mapping for my language. But not very much. I just want to map { and } to some other keys. What's the best way of doing this?
[13:18] <ThSenior> and how can i change it to 16 bit ?
[13:18] <ThSenior> now seems to be 24bit
[13:18] <Milos_SD> Is it safe to change root reserved % for a partition that is almost full (10 GB free) ?
[13:18] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  why do you need to change to 16bit?
[13:18] <dr_willis> Milos_SD:  You going to fill it up? :)
[13:19] <ThSenior> dr_willis i think it will be a little bit faster, its really slow and uses a lot of cpu
[13:19] <dr_willis> Milos_SD:  if you change it with tune2fs. im not sure the change takes effect untill you reboot/remount the fs.
[13:19] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, don't know, but it is not root partition, only data
[13:19] <ejv> color depth is slowing down your machine? now that's just odd...
[13:19] <dr_willis> ejv:  or its a very very old box..
[13:19] <ejv> prehistoric!
[13:19] <ThSenior> slow and 3 years old laptop
[13:19] <ejv> change DefaultDepth in xorg.conf is what i would do ThSenior
[13:20] <ThSenior> I know that on a P4 CPUs it helped
[13:20] <dr_willis> whats the system specs exactly?
[13:20] <ejv> or replace the laptop... they are dirt cheap on newegg...
[13:21] <ThSenior> 1.9Ghz dual core i think
[13:21] <ThSenior> ejv where can i find DefaultDepth?
[13:21] <ejv> i have an old intel centrino laptop, 7 years old, color depth is fine on it... integrated intel graphics chipset
[13:21] <ejv> ThSenior: in xorg.conf of course
[13:21] <dr_willis> !xorg
[13:22] <ThSenior> ejv as I said i dont have this file...
[13:22] <dr_willis> you can generate a xorg.conf somehow....
[13:22] <ThSenior> xorg.conf does not exist
[13:22] <dr_willis> !xorgconf
[13:22] <dr_willis> I doubt if going to 16bit will help much
[13:23] <ejv> the only reason my laptop works is because ubuntu exists
[13:23] <ThSenior> is 1GB of RAM enough for internet surfing È
[13:23] <ejv> windows on it is horror, mine has 512, 1G is plenty
[13:24] <ThSenior> well its really slow firefox start time or chromium
[13:24] <ThSenior> other apps too like wine...
[13:25] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  you may want to try Lubuntu or some other lighter desktop.
[13:25] <ejv> i know it's apples and oranges, but my 7 yr old laptop operates fine with stock ubuntu, under 512mb of ram, is there something else wrong? dying hard disk?
[13:26] <conntrack> hmm
[13:26] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, it works without a problem ... I didn't even had to remount the partition :D
[13:26] <ThSenior> ejv HD is always slow but as I see it uses a lot of HD
[13:26] <Milos_SD> dr_willis, I set it to 1% just to be sure :)
[13:27] <ThSenior> also CPU usage is too much on animated websites
[13:28] <ejv> only so much we can help you with, with such limited information
[13:28] <dr_willis> ive had lower end systems work fine. :)
[13:28] <dr_willis> could be a video card/driver bottleneck
[13:29] <ThSenior> i would like to try with 16 bit color to see the difference on web surf
[13:29] <dr_willis> ThSenior:  whats your video card?
[13:30] <ThSenior> how can i check it È
[13:30] <ThSenior> ?
[13:30] <RaTTuS|BIG> lshw -class display | pastebinit
[13:30] <ejv> lspci -k might do it or lshw
[13:30] <ejv> blast! RaTTuS|BIG is too fast!

[13:32] <ThSenior> Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03)
[13:35] <ejv> my 7 year old laptop can do 720p, if the browser is the *only* application open; otherwise, keep it at 360 or 480p
[13:35] <ThSenior> maybe reducing the resolution will help È
[13:35] <ThSenior> ?
[13:35] <dr_willis> then ive seen quad core machines get boggged down by poor flash preformance...
[13:35] <ejv> if you had a sandy bridge intel HD chipset, i'd be more confident in hd playback ability
[13:36] <ejv> controlling for flash-fail, youtube html5 :)
[13:36] <ejv> but yes, flash is the devil, certainly
[13:36] <insmod> since you are on it --- any solution yet for a dual monitor to view youtube full screen? other then saving the file -- or conversion add-on etc.
[13:37] <ejv> i have never tried
[13:37] <dr_willis> insmod:  it used to work for me.. havent tried it lately.
[13:37] <dr_willis> no dual monitor setups here at this timne
[13:37] <dr_willis> Unity does have known issues with multi monitor setups
[13:38] <ejv> the last time i used dual screens, was at my previous job, using fedora core 9, nvidia twinview i think is what it was called; worked ok, a bit buggy
[13:38] <insmod> dr_willis: it did as well but not for a while -- works for all but youtube
[13:38] <ThSenior> ok, i suppose the HD is too slow for ubuntu
[13:38] <dr_willis> you can set youtube to use html5 :)
[13:38] <ejv> yup
[13:38] <ThSenior> i dont understand why it touch it so much
[13:38] <dr_willis> Depends on how HD the  video is...
[13:39] <insmod> dr_willis: deian and linuxfromscratch
[13:39] <dr_willis> :) and the codec.. and res.. and... so on...
[13:39] <ejv> wooooooosh
[13:39] <ThSenior> i mean hard drive
[13:39]  * ejv makes a arm motion above the head
[13:39] <ejv> :D
[13:39] <ThSenior> videos playing good
[13:39] <dr_willis> then how are you comming to the conclusion the 'hd is too slow...'
[13:39] <ThSenior> anyway i got a problem with kmail and saving passwords...
[13:39] <ThSenior> well i installed kwallet manager and cant start it...
[13:39] <ejv> dr_willis: youtube.com/html5, you opt-in and i think it stores a cookie to remember that you prefer html5 playback
[13:40] <CrazyThinker> What is the best place to store secret notes in ubuntu?
[13:40] <dr_willis> ejv:  yea. not all videos are in html5 yet...
[13:40] <CrazyThinker> Does tomboy provide an encryption support?
[13:40] <ejv> dr_willis: yea it'll try to give you html5, and if not, it'll fall back to the flash (or it *should*)

[13:52] <theadmin> bobweaver: Well, which drive is Ubuntu installed on?
[13:53] <theadmin> bobweaver: /dev/sda? /dev/sdb?
[13:53] <bobweaver> sda

[14:01] <Guillem> "Documents" folder is tagged with a document icon in Nautilus. Where is such information stored?
[14:02] <Guillem> Previous Nautilus had the "emblems" stuff which now is missing...
[14:03] <Stanley00> Guillem: I think they are in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[14:03] <gwb> HI -- in 11.10, grub 1, in /boot/grub/menu.lst, are the kopt= parameters cumulative?  That is, if I have kopt=foo and kopt_3_0_0=bar, will update-grub build options "foo bar" for 3.0.0 kernels?

[14:04] <dr_willis> ThinkT510:  :)

[14:05] <raven> 11.10 winff - where are the mp4/h264 templates?
[14:05] <dr_willis> gwb:  try it and see? check the grub lines/boot options/menu.lst after you rereun update-grub.
[14:05] <gwb> ThinkT510: I've got a system continually in use for more than 5 years that has been kept up-to-date with Ubuntu's releases
[14:06] <dr_willis> raven:  Hmm..  there are some addatinal  profiles you can get from their web site. the android profile. makes mp4's i use it all the time.
[14:06] <gwb> dr_willis: OK -- I'll post the result here
[14:06] <Guillem> Also, In previous versions I could drag folders at "places" to keep book-marks. This seems not to be possible any more.
[14:06] <dr_willis> 5 yrs of updates.. im spurised it boots.. :)
[14:07] <ThinkT510> gwb: cool, glad to see the upgrade process works for you
[14:07] <Guillem> Oh, there is a Bookmarks cathegory
[14:07] <Guillem> now I  see it. Sorry for the noise
[14:11] <raven> dr_willis, android profile != quality i think?
[14:11] <dr_willis> raven:  i am playing them on my android.. so never noticed..
[14:12] <dr_willis> raven:  make your own profile i guess..
[14:12] <dr_willis> raven:  you may want to check out 'arista' also. it has similer function as winff.
[14:13] <omid> when i'm about to install propritary ATI drivers it says : Sorry, installation of this driver failed.Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log. here is the output of that file : http://paste.kde.org/155252/93622132/
[14:15] <makara> what to use for QQ now that pidgin doesn't support?
[14:15] <renemoraes> Hello there, I'm in need to have some help with monitor configure in ubuntu... i dont know if its the best channel to do it.. but if someone could help me i would appreciate that
[14:15] <makara> renemoraes: just ask your q please
[14:16] <renemoraes> I'm trying to configure an external monitor, but after doing all settings on "Monitor" section, without touching, without nothing, the system mirror the two monitors and turn the laptop monitor on again
[14:17] <renemoraes> I want to disable this automatic output monitor detection
[14:17] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  whats your video chipset?
[14:18] <renemoraes> I have an intel integrated and amd radeon hd 6470M but the last one is disabled
[14:18] <dr_willis> One of those new Dual GPU laptops?
[14:19] <renemoraes> yes
[14:19] <renemoraes> Dell Inspiron 15R
[14:19] <gulzar> what are those apps called which are not made in gtk or qt and so look same in any DE?
[14:19] <urthmove1> x11 ?
[14:20] <makara> gulzar: swing
[14:20] <dr_willis> apps using the X11 libs perhaps. is the term ive often seen
[14:20] <ThinkT510> gulzar: wxwidgits?
[14:20] <SoWhat> Hello! Is there a sound mixer for ubuntu where we can adjust sound level for different apps like in Windows 7?
[14:20] <omid> when i'm about to install propritary ATI drivers it says : Sorry, installation of this driver failed.Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log. here is the output of that file : http://paste.kde.org/155252/93622132/
[14:20] <dr_willis> equally ugly in all. :)
[14:20] <theadmin> gulzar: Um, qt apps can pretty much look the same anywhere, same for gtk... There's a TON of desktop-independent GUI toolkits, actually, and Gtk and Qt aren't desktop-dependent, either.
[14:20] <makara> gulzar: could be anything. give example app
[14:20] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : like Chromium
[14:20] <theadmin> gulzar: Chromium uses GTK.
[14:21] <renemoraes> dr_willis: do you know how can i just turn off this automatic detection... then i could configure using xrandr by terminal
[14:21] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  given the issuves ive seen with those new things.. you are lucky it even works. :)
[14:21] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : I don't know much but there should be a category which does not depend on any toolkit like gtk or qt and hence act same in any DE
[14:21] <dr_willis> renemoraes:  you did try the laptops fn-XX keys? :)
[14:21] <gulzar> makra : ThinkT510 : theadmin : i don't have much info on these apps so asking here
[14:21] <renemoraes> dr_willis: hahahah yeah.. perhaps u are right
[14:22] <theadmin> gulzar: gtk and qt are -- right -- toolkits. They do not depend on desktop environments.
[14:22] <is_null> hi all, is there any way to move the dock from the left screen edge to the right screen edge
[14:22] <makara> gulzar: gotta depend on something
[14:22] <renemoraes> I've tryied... its not working
[14:22] <theadmin> gulzar: And act the same anywhere, indeed. Icons may change due to DE's theme settings allright
[14:22]  * conntrack shrugs
[14:22] <is_null> cause you know, i read from left to right :)
[14:22] <dr_willis> is_null:  nope. but theres hacks to move it to the bottom.
[14:22] <makara> gulzar: web-apps your only option
[14:22] <is_null> dr_willis: which ?
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  mentioned on the webupd8 blog site.  i dont recall the name.
[14:23] <is_null> or maybe there is a way to make it always visible ?
[14:23] <renemoraes> dr_willis: i just cant understand, why it changes the output... with the right resolution.. but after anything it just moves back to laptop output
[14:23] <gulzar> theadmin: eg; basket or dolphin looks ygly in gnome or xfce if not configured propperly.. and so is the case with nautilus and gnote in kde. But there must be a category whch behaves same on both environments withoutmuch dependencies
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  always visible = ccsm tool, unity plugin setting.
[14:23] <is_null> cool, thanks
[14:23] <gulzar> makara: yes they should but with less dependencies
[14:23] <dr_willis> is_null:  webupd8 blog site has other unity tweaks also
[14:23] <theadmin> gulzar: Well, wxwidgets and atk provide something like that...
[14:23] <gulzar> theadmin: I don't know how to put my question. Lets say no gtk or qt or java apps. Any other category?
[14:24] <gulzar> makra: web apps ... Ok
[14:24] <theadmin> gulzar: I just gave you two
[14:24] <is_null> thanks dr_willis
[14:24] <makara> gulzar: more work for developers for not much pay off. why change a winning formula? reinvent the wheel? "DRY"
[14:24] <schnuffle> Is there a way to print the partition table used by the kernel instead the one written on the harddisk? I wiped the wrong partition table and would like to restore it as the kernel still uses the old one
[14:24] <is_null> well i can't say i don't wish it was as customizable as suckless dwm
[14:24] <gulzar> theadmin: wxwidgets ... I will look at htem
[14:25] <udonthavetoknow> hey, can someone of u help me out? i'm running 11.10 and there's no option like "dim screen when it's on battery power" in power settings
[14:26] <gulzar> makara: its about that I am using openbox with tint2. And so qt apps and gtk apps are not behaving properly.. tried various measures so wanted something which is netiher qt nor gtk
[14:26] <renemoraes> dr_willis: thank you anyway! :)
[14:27] <SoWhat> does anybody know a sound mixer for ubuntu where we can adjust sound level for different apps like in Windows 7?
[14:27] <dr_willis> gulzar:  many kde/gnome apps have settings/themes tomake them look more normal. and  both have a 'settings' back end that may get them to work a little nicer.
[14:27] <is_null> while i'm at it, a couple of questions about the terminal: how to 0) make "click on a link" to open it in a browser and (currently: i can click the link but it doesn't open anywhere) 1) how to make that if i paste 2 lines of shell code it will do the second line when the first one finishes (currently: finishes first line and does nothing)
[14:27] <dr_willis> SoWhat:  pavcontrol perhaps. or some of the other pa* tools
[14:27] <makara> SoWhat: I'm on 11.04 and it allows individual control over apps
[14:28] <dr_willis> makara:  thats what i was thinking also. :) but i rarely do sound on my linux box
[14:28] <SoWhat> makara: I am on 11.10, can you tell me how?
[14:28] <atdiehm> if I want to try out precise on my new lappy, should I pull down alpha1, or the daily....
[14:28] <gulzar> dr_willis: qt apps are right but gtk2 and gtk3 is not mixing well... either of them give toruble. Pcmanfm and xarchiever etc. are looking good.
[14:28] <Pici> atdiehm: You'll want to ask in #ubuntu+1 for that.
[14:29] <atdiehm> whoops, sorry
[14:29] <dr_willis> gulzar:  for gtk2. i think theres some special themes that are gtk2+3.. but i rarely worry about them.
[14:29] <makara> SoWhat: problem. Unity. On gnome 2 I click the volume button > sound preferences > applications tab
[14:30] <SoWhat> makara, I guess I don't have such option in Unity
[14:30] <theadmin> gulzar: pcmanfm is gtk-based... You're messing things. Yes, that's right, apps that are written for GNOME don't mix with other destkops, but it ain't really got anything to do with gtk
[14:30] <makara> SoWhat: sure its there somewhere
[14:30] <gulzar> dr_willis: yes there is adwaita but it is not working iwth openbox.. I am trying to do this from past 2 weeks and finally wanted something other than gtk and qt I think CLI will be a good opriton
[14:30] <udonthavetoknow> hey, i'm missing an option like "dim screen when it's on battery power", i'm running 11.10. i've checked system setting > power but there are only options like "suspend when inactive for:", etc.
[14:30] <makara> SoWhat: just gotta find the dang thing
[14:31] <theadmin> udonthavetoknow: Maybe your battery isn't being detected, is laptop-mode-tools installed?
[14:31] <is_null> dr_willis: the other themes from the blog look good but come on, 30 dependencies for a theme ? i'm not taking this risk
[14:31] <tjiggi_fo> is_null, put && between the two lines
[14:31] <udonthavetoknow> theadmin: probably not, i've installed ubuntu 2 days ago. thanks for helping me out :)
[14:31] <gulzar> theadmin: i will go for CLI :)
[14:32] <dr_willis> is_null:  do without then.. dosent matter to me...
[14:32] <dr_willis> ;)
[14:33]  * dr_willis goes back to using jwm
[14:33] <is_null> tjiggi_fo: is it possible to hack the clipboard so that it processes s/\n/&&/ before pasting in the terminal ?
[14:34] <dean_> does anyone know how to use my headphones while using jack? I don't see anything for it in the connections
[14:35] <bullgard6> UpdateManager recommends: "Select the filter »Faulty Package" in Synaptic to show the rogue package. Where is the filter »Faulty Package« to be found in Synaptic 0.75.2ubuntu7?
[14:35] <is_null> tjiggi_fo: that's not going to work well with the history feature of my cli shell thought ... particularely if i want to re-run a single pasted line with ctrl+r
[14:35] <dr_willis> bullgard6:  bottom left buttons perhaps?
[14:36] <is_null> dr_willis: "Paullo, the Unity Bottom Launcher developer, has fixed the most important bugs (like the unmaximized Dash design, drag'n'drop items from Dash to the launcher, etc.), created a stand-alone Unity plugin plugin called "Ubuntu Unity Plugin Rotated" and uploaded it to a PPA so it's easier to stay up to date with newer versions" that might work to move unity launcher
[14:37] <bullgard6> dr_willis: I only found there somthing similar.
[14:37] <bullgard6> +e
[14:41] <CaptainKnots> am I able to dd a ubuntu 11.10 iso to a flash drive in another distro  to get a working installer flash drive?
[14:43] <iceroot> CaptainKnots: in another distro?
[14:43] <MonkeyDust> CaptainKnots  guess you have to try to find out
[14:44] <dr_willis> is_null:  never tried it..dont plan on trying it. :)
[14:44] <dr_willis> CaptainKnots:  it should work. i dd'd one from windows to a flash :)
[14:44] <iceroot> CaptainKnots: the iso from 11.10 can be copied with dd, ubuntu-releases before 11.10 are not working with that method
[14:45] <SoWhat> does anybody know how to control sound level on different apps in Unity?
[14:45] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, open "Sound"
[14:45] <MeQuerSat> go to the last tab
[14:46] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: here is my last tab http://ubuntuone.com/5de7BDOPM0NDtkGMQHt1mc
[14:46] <lamah_> where is apt.conf
[14:46] <dr_willis> lamah_:  try 'locate apt.conf'
[14:46] <lamah_> and nothing
[14:46] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, mine too: if you start other apps, more will show up in that list
[14:47] <dr_willis> sudo updatedb , then try it.
[14:47] <lamah_> again nothing
[14:47] <dr_willis>  your updatedb should take some time to run......
[14:47] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: How about firefox? :)
[14:47] <lamah_> dr_willis: i have tried that
[14:47] <dr_willis>  and locate apt.conf   finds about a dozen hits here.
[14:47] <pangolin> /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
[14:47] <dr_willis>  /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/apt.conf
[14:47] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: It doesnt appear there?
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> SoWhat, firefox is already in that picture...
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> plugin-container is the program that handles Flash content from firefox
[14:48] <dr_willis> man 5 apt.conf
[14:48] <SoWhat> MeQuerSat: thanks! :D
[14:48] <MeQuerSat> :)
[14:48] <lamah_> dr_willis: yes is there only a example in doc dir but one is there also on system
[14:48] <dr_willis> lamah_:  theres none here on this sytem..
[14:48] <dr_willis> other then that example.
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: yes that i mean
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: i got error on apt-get
[14:49] <dr_willis> if it exists.. it would be in /etc/apt/
[14:49] <lamah_> ok
[14:49] <lamah_> dr_willis: E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libgstreamer0.10-0'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)
[14:50] <lamah_> who can help what is that
[14:50] <lamah_> E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'libgstreamer0.10-0'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)
[14:51] <lamah_> on apt-get install gnome
[14:51] <dr_willis> normally you would install 'ubuntu-desktop'  not just 'gnome'
[14:51] <deej1976> lamah_: Have you added any other ppa's
[14:51] <lamah_> deej1976: what is a ppa
[14:51] <deej1976> !ppa
[14:51] <dr_willis> man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure     might give some info. :)
[14:52] <lamah_> deej1976: yes
[14:52] <syed> hi
[14:52] <dr_willis> 'man 5 apt.conf'   to see the man pages. search for 'Immediate-Configure'   - ive never heard of the error..
[14:52] <syed> friends i am new for ubuntu studio
[14:53] <syed> now i try to install .deb packages in ubuntustudio 11.10
[14:53] <deej1976> lamah_: Could be a conflict from one of them, or as dr_willis say "man 5 apt.conf".
[14:53] <pangolin> !away > ericm-Zzz
[14:53] <sabayonuser> JFS by default, supports utf-8??? or should fstab iocharset=utf-8?
[14:53] <lamah_> deej1976: yes but i can't understand english
[14:53] <syed> but i cant install its just extract the package how can i install this?
[14:54] <dr_willis> I understand english.. but dont understand what man 5 apt.conf is saying about Immediate-Configure, its a flag that defaults to on... so  how did you turn it off.. :) or is it just a fluke...
[14:54] <dr_willis> and the error messatge is not actually related to the actual problem
[14:54] <dr_willis> when in doubt. clean up your sources.list and other listings, disble ppa's , update, upgrade, try again.
[14:54] <deej1976> lamah_: Which ppa's have you added?
[14:54] <syed> friends i am new for ubuntu studio now i try to install .deb packages in ubuntustudio 11.10 but i cant install.. its only just extract the package, how can i install this?
[14:55] <lamah_> deej1976: i have tried gnome packages archives
[14:55] <lamah_> deej1976: many of them but they are removed i think
[14:55] <dr_willis> syed:  use terminal perhaps. 'sudo dpkg -i foo.deb' or 'sudo gdebi foo.deb'
[14:55] <syed> k friend s foo means package name?
[14:55] <deej1976> lamah_: which version of ubuntu are you running ?
[14:56] <lamah_> deej1976: 11.10
[14:56] <_Possum> im trying to mount a windows ahre , when i do it manualy it always restrict normal users to write/modify, but when gnome is accessing the windows share through the network, it sets it up with the right permissions, what am i doing wrong
[14:56] <_Possum> and how do i make sure i can mount it manualy with the right permissions
[14:56] <schnuffle> okay, apparently nobody really knows how to dump the kernel partition table for a device. Maybe somebody knows if there's a channel where I could ask?
[14:56] <lamah_> deej1976: how to install gnome?
[14:56] <deej1976> lamah_: Are you trying to run old gnome2?
[14:56] <deej1976> !notunity | lamah_
[14:57] <lamah_> no gnome3
[14:57] <SoWhat> can you tell me, why Share, Synchronise, Stop publishing and Copy public link  choices are disabled in Ubuntu One folder?
[14:57] <deej1976> !notunity > lamah_
[14:58] <ThinkT510> !gnome2 | lamah_
[14:58] <deej1976> ThinkT510: He said gnome3
[14:58] <ThinkT510> deej1976: he said no gnome3
[14:58] <MeQuerSat> I <3 Gnome Shell
[14:59] <snail> hai
[14:59] <deej1976> ThinkT510: I said are y using trying gnome2, he said NO gnome3.
[14:59] <snail> hai miranda ?
[14:59] <spin_> list
[14:59] <spin_> LIST
[14:59] <ThinkT510> deej1976: that is my point, he said no gnome3, so he doesn't want gnome3
[15:00] <ThinkT510> deej1976: ah, sorry, just clicked
[15:00]  * dr_willis thinks we need clarification
[15:00] <ThinkT510> deej1976: slow brain day :)
[15:01]  * deej1976 His still possible got a problem with extra PPA's
[15:04] <snail> me to
[15:05] <faLUCE> hi. I need to create a custom distro, ubuntu based, with some installed packages and some programs compiled from scratch. Which tool can I use? ubuntu-customization-kit doesn't seem to customize the distro with programs installed from source. I tried "customizer" too, but it doesn't seem to work well. I tried remastersys and neither this one works well. Is there a GOOD program for doing that?
[15:06] <auronandace> !remaster | faLUCE
[15:06] <faLUCE> auronandace: this doesn't answer. read again my question
[15:06] <deej1976> !info oem-config-remaster | faLUCE

[15:09] <faLUCE> deej1976: this is a command line program. It's very obscure. Isn't there something easier?
[15:10] <deej1976> faLUCE: Have you looked at the links from !remaster
[15:10] <faLUCE> deej1976: which links?
[15:10] <Rotham> hey.. ubuntu server question:  how can I figure out wtf is using all of my memory?

[15:12] <researcher123> I am on 32 bit system can it be upgraded to 64 bit?
[15:13] <Tm_T> researcher123: by reinstalling
[15:13] <snail> assalamualaikum
[15:13] <OerHeks> researcher123, yes, with re-install, not by upgrade
[15:13] <somsip> researcher123: I found a site that said it was possibly, but so complicated it wasn't worthwhile. I built 64 bit on a separate partition, then slowly migrated over
[15:13] <researcher123> Tm_T: ok
[15:13] <Rotham> wow.. jpds:  that is an incredibly helpful page.
[15:13] <TTest> How can I kill the gwibber process under oneiric? Sudo killall -9 gwibber doesnt work
[15:14] <researcher123> somsip: I wish not to disturb the 32 bit instillation also
[15:14] <somsip> researcher123: same with me, which is why I installed 64 from minimal install CD to a different partition/drive
[15:14] <OerHeks> TTest, use 'top' to determinate the PID, then killall -9 <pid>
[15:15] <researcher123> if I install 64 bit system by replacing the 32 bit will the earlier applications work?
[15:15] <TTest> OerHeks: that doesnt work either, its driving me crazy that I cant disable gwibber
[15:16] <somsip> researcher123: I reinstalled everything using 64 bit apps (except for some multilins like Skype) and dual booted for a few weeks until I was happy it was stable
[15:16] <scarleo> I'm trying to mount an encrypted /home partition from another Ubuntu install with sudo ecryptfs-mount-private but it fails and tell me: http://pastie.org/2969775
[15:16] <researcher123> somsip: is 64 bit know for something better over 32 bit?
[15:17] <somsip> researcher123: not sure what you mean
[15:17] <researcher123> somsip: is 64 bit better than 32 bit in some ways?
[15:17] <researcher123> is it god to migrate to 64 bit system for some good reasons?
[15:17] <somsip> researcher123: lots of long arguments about how much and with what sort of apps, but short answer always seems to be 'yes'
[15:17] <RaTTuS|BIG> researcher123 - you you have more than 4GB RAm then 64Bit is going to be better in the long run -
[15:17] <OerHeks> researcher123, if there is no 64 bit version of your software, you could use IA32-libs to run 32 bit software under 64 bit.
[15:18] <RaTTuS|BIG> s/you you /if you/
[15:18] <researcher123> oh.ok
[15:18] <somsip> researcher123: eg: lots of CPU heavy work like rendering or video work might get more benefit than if you use lower demand apps
[15:19] <TTest> how can help me kill gwibber on ubuntu oneiric
[15:19] <somsip> somnium: but end result is ually, as RaTTuS|BIG says, if you have more than 4GB and have no very unusual apps that do not support 64 (though there are workarounds), you should use 64
[15:19] <is_null> researcher123: if you don't have more than 4GB or RAM and if you don't know why you need 64bit then you don't need it
[15:19] <faLUCE> deej1976: I don't understand
[15:20] <faLUCE> deej1976: which is the link?
[15:20] <researcher123> I work more by using many  virtual machines. what system will b good fr me 32 bit or 64 bit?
[15:20] <is_null> researcher123: probably won't change anything if you have less than 4GB of ram
[15:20] <MeQuerSat> researcher123, get the 64bit version
[15:20] <researcher123> I have just 4GB RAM exactly
[15:20] <is_null> then it doesn't matter
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> no, then you should get the 64bit version
[15:21] <somsip> researcher123: I can't say for definite. It depends what they're running. More RAM is better to support high numbers of VMS IFAIK. But it sounds like you should be sconsidering 64
[15:21] <roflmaus> Which service does handle /var/log/syslog? Where is its config file?
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> 32bit can only allocate 3.2gb...
[15:21] <is_null> thanks for the info MeQuerSat
[15:21] <MeQuerSat> besides, 64bit has other advantages than just memory alone
[15:21] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: thanks
[15:21] <is_null> really ?
[15:22] <somsip> researcher123: you have a spare HD or partiion? Set it up and find out for yourself base don your system and your needs
[15:22] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: what advantages like?
[15:22] <MeQuerSat> yes, lots of applications that are optimized for 64 bit run faster
[15:22] <TTest> how can I stop gwibber from running on oneiric?
[15:23] <syed> any one well known in ubuntu studio?
[15:23] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: what applications r optimized for 64 bit? where can I c that list?
[15:23] <MeQuerSat> TTest: you can kill any process by running "sudo killall <processname>"
[15:23] <fishcooker> make ubuntu mac like
[15:23] <fishcooker> ?
[15:23] <MeQuerSat> researcher123, there's not a list, but if you use VM's alot 64bit is really recommended
[15:24] <is_null> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit#Pros_and_cons starts with "A common misconception is that 64-bit architectures are no better than 32-bit architectures unless the computer has more than 4 GB of random access memory.[20] This is not entirely true:"
[15:24] <researcher123> MeQuerSat: thanks
[15:24] <TTest> MeQuerSat: That does not work
[15:24] <syed> how can i  install .deb files in ubuntu studio
[15:25] <is_null> apparently it can be harmful too "The main disadvantage of 64-bit architectures is that relative to 32-bit architectures, the same data occupies more space in memory (due to swollen pointers and possibly other types and alignment padding)"
[15:25] <MeQuerSat> TTest, if you dont use gwibber, you can always just uninstall it
[15:25] <somsip> researcher123: this is what I meant about 'long arguments'... Install it on a spare drive and find out for yourself.
[15:25] <MeQuerSat> syed: double click the file (it will open with Software Center by default)
[15:25] <researcher123> somsip: ok
[15:25] <syed> but its just extract the file
[15:26] <MeQuerSat> syed: right mouse click -> Open with Software Center
[15:26] <TTest> MeQuerSat: I do use it, I just don't want it to start by default. It doesn't respect the setting that it shouldnt start by default, and now I cant even stop it
[15:26] <Wolfsherz> hello, can someone tell me how to find out why my cpu gets so hot under ubuntu 11.10? even while idle...
[15:26] <is_null> Wolfsherz: maybe you can run the "top" command
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> TTest, you can remove "gwibber.desktop" from /etc/xdg/autostart/
[15:27] <is_null> and find something eating your cpu ...
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> syed: you can always install deb packages by opening a terminal:
[15:27] <MeQuerSat> sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package.deb
[15:28] <syed> thnks i'll try
[15:28] <Wolfsherz> is_null: there is no process that eats up cpu on that list unfortunately.
[15:29] <TTest> MeQuerSat: thanks, ill see if that helps when I reboot. I still dont get why I cant just kill it though
[15:29] <Wolfsherz> i am not sure if it might be the graphic card, its hard to tell on my laptop. since the cpu and gpu are close together
[15:29] <MeQuerSat> TTestL maybe a "sudo /etc/init.d/gwibber stop" works?
[15:30] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, its probably your gpu
[15:30] <MeQuerSat> you have an AMD card?
[15:30] <Socky_> Hey all.  I am using pl2303 to do USB to serial. and then running minicom on /dev/ttyUSB0.  If i dont end my minicom session gracefully i have to unplug, then replug the device in in order to be able to minicom again because i get an error: cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0 no such device. But if i remove the plug and put it back in it works.  My question i now that I am away from the USB port and I need to connect in. How can I remove it
[15:30] <syed> its working
[15:30] <TTest> MeQuerSat: I tried that, but there's not entry for gwibber. probably because gwibber is not a proper service
[15:31] <syed> MeQuerSat : .tar is not for ubuntu?
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> syed: you have to unpack a .tar and look inside how you can install it
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> .deb is very easy to install in Ubuntu
[15:31] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, also if you have an AMD video card, you can install the proprietary drivers and the temperature will go down
[15:32] <MeQuerSat> TTest: gwibber-service is a dbus service, and is generally started ondemand. It isn't a system service, so not start and stop scrips needed.
[15:32] <MeQuerSat> To stop it from the command line, or from a shell script: dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.Gwibber.Service /com/gwibber/Service com.Gwibber.Service.Quit
[15:32] <Wolfsherz> yes
[15:33] <syed> MeQuerSat : where can i get video codes for avi,vob,mkv,mp4 formats?
[15:33] <matrixiumn> hello
[15:33] <dr_willis> some of those are conatiners syed  so they are not codecs
[15:33] <syed> MeQuerSat i'm new for linux so only i have more doubts
[15:34] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: last time i did that, the catalyst-driver did not recognize the correct amd-card. and the amount of ram detected was wrong also.
[15:34] <dr_willis> syed:  install ubuntu-restricted-extras for most of them.
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> syed: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, gstreamer0.10-tools, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> install those packages and you'll have most codecs
[15:34] <syed> MeQuerSat where can i get it friend?
[15:34] <MeQuerSat> you can install them by doing this from the command line:
 oh thanks
[15:34] <TTest> MeQuerSat: ps aux showed several gwibber-related processes, after killing all of those the main gwibber process also exited. Thanks for your help
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> sudo apt-get install <package1> <package2>
[15:35] <dr_willis> syed:  via the package manager tools install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' that should pull in most codecs.
[15:35] <dr_willis> and other things you most likely want.
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> TTest: guess thats an option too :)
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> dr_willis, I deliberately dont install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[15:35] <MeQuerSat> it screws up the flash plugin
[15:36] <dr_willis> Its the first thing install MeQuerSat  and ive never had it screw up flash.
[15:36] <MeQuerSat> thats because youre using the 32bit flash plugin
[15:36] <dr_willis> actually the installer has check box's now a days that i think pulls in some of the stuff on teh first screen
[15:36] <MeQuerSat> I like to use the 64bit native flash plugin on linux ;)
[15:36] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: which one would i chose to install: FGLRX graphics driver or (post-release updates)?
[15:36] <dr_willis> cant say ive ever noticed a need to use the 64 vs 321bit flash plugins.
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> dr_willis, it elimates the ndiswrapper overhead
[15:37] <syed> nice friends
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> Wolfsherz, first one: fglrx
[15:37] <Wolfsherz> MeQuerSat: the second one os FGLRX too, but with that post release udpates
[15:37] <MeQuerSat> oh, you can choose that then
[15:37] <dr_willis> cant say that ive noticed a need to worry about it MeQuerSat  :)
[15:38] <syed> any other important commands is there?
[15:38] <dr_willis> syed:  depends on what you are doing. :)
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> syed: sudo apt-get update
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> and sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:38] <syed> mm k
[15:38] <MeQuerSat> update makes sure you have the latest list of packages, upgrade makes sure all packages get upgraded
[15:38] <dr_willis> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is a more intensive upgrade. :)  normally not needed...
[15:39] <syed> k friends
[15:40] <HypothesisFrog> every time I launch Konqueror, it launches another app called knotify4 which screws up my audio? Is there anyway I can stop it doing that ... or to configure knotify4 so it doesn't screw around my audio?
[15:40] <dr_willis> HypothesisFrog:  you are using KDE correct?
[15:40] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis no I'm using gnome
[15:41] <HypothesisFrog> but I use konqueror for certain things
[15:41] <syed> update vs upgrade ?
[15:41] <dr_willis> syed:  updates the list. upgrades the system.
[15:42] <Valecri_> hi, i have a problem with booting windows after i deleted the ubuntu partition. i've tried all of the wikis in the ubuntu site
[15:42] <Valecri_> can anyone help me?
[15:43] <kubanc> hellow! anyone familiar with i386_start_kernel+0xaa/0xb1 error. I cannot start Ubuntu Live CD (the only thing i have connected with motherboard is graphic card, RAM, CPU, CD-ROM)
[15:43] <syed> here before i used windows 7 & ubuntu using wubi installer but i'm using ubuntu only, can i add windows 7 as a dual os?
[15:43] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  you have no linux installed at all now?
[15:43] <auronandace> Valecri_: that means grub can't work
[15:43] <Valecri_> dr_willis, no, no linux. at this time i'm with a live ubuntu
[15:43] <BlueEagle> syed: Did you by chance read the getting started guide for Ubuntu?
[15:44] <auronandace> Valecri_: you'll need to install a bootloader
[15:44] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis can't help me?
[15:44] <Valecri_> auronandace, i always have fixed mbr with supergrubdisk, but at this time it doesn't work. now it's called rescatux
[15:45] <Valecri_> i've tried with ms-sys, rescatux, supergrubdisk2, nothing works
[15:45] <auronandace> Valecri_: it can't work if you want to repair grub. grub needs a linux partition
[15:45] <Valecri_> auronandace, i don't want to fix grub, i want to boot windows
 ok friend but install ubuntu inside the windows is possible i know.  but after installing windows in ubuntu is possible?
[15:46] <auronandace> Valecri_: then you need to install a different bootloader (and ask in a different channel)
[15:46] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda
 ok friend but install ubuntu inside the windows is possible i know.  but installing windows in ubuntu is possible?
[15:46] <dr_willis> HypothesisFrog:  cant say ive ever seen the issue. or anyone else with it. check the forums and askubuntu.com perhaps.
[15:46] <HypothesisFrog> dr_willis thanks anyway man
[15:46] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  for help with reinstalling the windows bootloader. you shoudle be asking in #windows
[15:47] <dr_willis> Valecri_: there are windows 7/vista rescue iso files from ms. depends on what windoww version as to what commands to do.
[15:47] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, i only want to fix the mbr that i've lost installing ubuntu. ubuntu caused the problem to windows and not the reverse
[15:47] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  you deleteing the grub files caused the problem.
[15:47] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: I just gave you a solution.
[15:48] <auronandace> Valecri_: you removed ubuntu and expect grub to work? are you reading what we are typing to you?
[15:48] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, what is the solution? ask in another channel or type the code above?
[15:49] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  #windows knows how to reinstall the windows bootloader better then we do.
[15:49] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Type the code that I sent you.
[15:49] <syed> i want to install win7 now, but i dont want to change ubuntu files.. so can i install win7 without any modification in ubuntu?
[15:49] <Valecri_> auronandace, before today, i was able to fix the mbr, now i don't know what is changed. supergrubdisk or the windows 7 repair disk have always worked fine
[15:49] <dr_willis> I just boot my Win7 cd and use a few commands i got off the internet last time i needed to fix it.
[15:49] <dr_willis> syed:  you would have been netter off to isntall windows first, then ubuntu.
[15:49] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, thanks, i will try it now
 ya friend. wrongly i installd ubuntu 1st, i upgraded it. so i cant win7
[15:50] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: If that doesn't work, and you only have one hard drive in the computer, then there is something more wrong and you will need to ask in ##windows.
[15:50] <syed> i mis win7 lot
[15:50] <dr_willis> syed:  i always keep the 2 os's on their own hard drives. :)  but if you dont have 2 hd's that makes it harder
[15:51] <dr_willis> I miss win7 like one misses a Tooth Ache...
[15:51] <saady> what are you saying mr sayed
[15:51] <ugo`> Hi all, I'm a bit stuck on a server config problem: I have a vnc server which is working. I have a gateway which I setup as a vnc client, from which I can connect to the vnc server correctly. My problem is that when I try to connect to the vnc from a computer that's behind the gateway, I can't access the computers on the other side of the vnc... I'm not sure where to look. Any help greatly appreciated
[15:51] <auronandace> Valecri_: i've told you why the supergrubdisk won't work, as for win7 repair this is the wrong channel to ask about in
[15:51] <saady> this is a problem
[15:51] <saady> imagritions
[15:51] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, thanks. i hope it will work. supergrubdisk, win7 recovery disk , ms-sys and others didn't...
[15:52] <Jordan_U> syed: You can install Windows 7 again, but you'll need to be carefull that the Windows installer preserves Ubuntu's partitions, and you'll need to re-install grub afterward since Windows will overwrite grub.
[15:52] <researcher123> is there a audio recording software in ubuntu?
  its possible?
[15:52] <Jordan_U> syed: Yes.
[15:52] <saady> yeah reasearcher123
[15:52] <Valecri_> auronandace, you have not understand me. i'm not asking for help with win7recovery or supergrubdisk... i'm asking for a method. generic method that a linux user maybe knows. Not you, i assume
[15:53] <syed> i'm not well known in grub
[15:53] <Valecri_> auronandace, or maybe my english is so poor that i'm not explaining what i want to say :D
[15:53] <auronandace> Valecri_: i told you why repairing grub won't work, and i told you an alternative is to install a different bootloader
[15:54] <syed> how to re-install grub
[15:54] <dr_willis> the best way to repaur the windows bootloader would be with a Windows rescue/recovery/repair disk from MS. they have some you can download legally for free. saw them on the lifehacker blog site.
[15:54] <dr_willis> !fixgrub | syed
[15:54] <Valecri_> auronandace, i don't want to fix grub! i only want to fix the mbr
[15:54] <researcher123> saady: which software to record my own songs with music track?
[15:55] <ugo`> researcher123 did you take a look at audacity?
[15:55] <researcher123> ugo`: just installed audacity
[15:55] <dr_willis> grub installs to the mbr Valecri_  part of it is on the mbr.. and part was on the linux partions you deleted
[15:55] <researcher123> now trying
[15:56] <auronandace> Valecri_: mbr contains the bootloader (be it grub or a windows bootloader), fixing it is the same as installing a bootloader
[15:57] <saady> reasearcher123 it called LMMS
[15:57] <Jordan_U> auronandace: dr_willis: I would argue that installing ms-style mbr code to replace grub in the mbr after removing Ubuntu is on topic for this channel. And I've told Valecri_ how to do so already.
[15:57] <Jordan_U> (from within an Ubuntu LiveCD)
[15:57] <Valecri_> dr_willis, auronandace: ok, i didn't knew this. So i want to fix the previous bootloader in the mbr, the windows bootloader, i think.
[15:58] <syed> thanks friend
[15:58] <saady> reasearcher123 : it called LMMS
[15:58] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, yes, i'm from ubuntu live
[15:58] <syed> i will catch u later
[15:58] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Have you run the command I gave? Did it finish without any errors?
[15:58] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, yes, i've typed the command but nothing happens
[15:59] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, only an error for the repos, because i'm running a live ubuntu from a pen drive, not a real cd
[15:59] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: Can you please pastebin the exact error message?
[15:59] <Jordan_U> !pastebin | Valecri_
[16:00] <Valecri_> ok, thanks for the link
[16:01] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/760570/
[16:01] <operatorplik> hai
[16:02] <operatorplik> nolden
[16:02] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: OK. The rest of the command should still work despite that error. Please try running "sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" now.
[16:02] <dr_willis> !info mbr
[16:03] <operatorplik> jjjj
[16:03] <dr_willis> given the variaty of commands/tools ive seen needed from MS for each of their os's - i would be amazed if that worked for them all. :)
[16:05] <Jordan_U> dr_willis: For just restoring the mbr and nothing else, which is all that should be needed after what Ubuntu does for a dual boot, this will work for any Windows release. The code in the mbr always just chainloads the first "active" partition in an ms-style mbr.
[16:05] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/760575/ there's also a fdisk -l
[16:06] <auronandace> Jordan_U: interesting... you learn something new every day
[16:07] <dr_willis> Jordan_U:  makes me wonder what all the various 'fdisk \mbr' and 'fixboot' 'fixmbr' and otehr commands do.. :) i forget what one even was needed for win7
[16:07] <dr_willis> first active partion may be a recovery partiton :) guess he will find out.
[16:07] <Jordan_U> Valecri_: OK. Hopefully if you reboot now you'll be able to access Windows. If not, then something more has gone wrong than what Ubuntu installation and removal of the Ubuntu partition alone will do.
[16:07] <harkirt> Hi my wlan0 not coming up?
[16:07] <harkirt> harkirt@harkirt-HP-G5000-GF769EA-ABU:~$ ifconfig wlan0 up
[16:07] <harkirt> wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[16:08] <harkirt> i installed the additional drivers
[16:08] <dr_willis> harkirt:  you sure its wlan0? ive had wireless cards be eth0 and so on..
[16:08] <Valecri_> dr_willis, yes, it's a recovery partition but it's useless for me
[16:08] <dr_willis> so you need to set the actual windows partiion to be the 'active' partition.
[16:08] <harkirt> dr_willis: let me try
[16:09] <dr_willis> my recovery partions here have a command line/fix boot options.. :)
[16:09] <Valecri_> Jordan_U, reboot now. i hope it will work
[16:09] <Valecri_> dr_willis, mine not. it's a sony vaio F11
[16:10] <avdeveloper> help: How do I remove completely Gnome-Shell
[16:10] <Wolfsherz> i have installed the fglrx driver for my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650. but the catalyst control center tells me that a HD4200 is installed.
[16:10] <auronandace> avdeveloper: you using 11.10?
[16:10] <Valecri_> dr_willis, it will only reset all the pc with all the vaio stuff, like a factory renewed, i don't know how to say
[16:10] <avdeveloper> auronandace: yes
[16:10] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  yes.. its a system recovery/restore partition.
[16:11] <avdeveloper> wolfsherz: for some reason the fglrx driver doesn't work for my Radeon HD4200 so I just reverted back to the defautl driver
[16:11] <dr_willis> Valecri_:  set the active partition to be the actual windows parittion and it should boot that one.
[16:11] <datalay> i installed ubuntu 11.02 , i want to use xfce
[16:11] <datalay> how can do that,
[16:11] <dr_willis> datalay:  install xubuntu-desktop package
[16:11] <auronandace> avdeveloper: is gnome-shell messing something up or do you just want to reclaim the space?
[16:11] <datalay> i dont like gnome2
[16:11] <datalay> okay
[16:11] <dr_willis> datalay:  you mean gnome3 ? and 11.04 or 11.10 :)
[16:11] <datalay> sorry gnome 3
[16:11] <auronandace> datalay: or you could use xubuntu instead
[16:11] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I want to use Gnome-Shell but for some reason, after removing fglrx Gnome-Shell looks like Gnome-Classic
[16:12] <datalay> i will use xubuntu
[16:12] <datalay> thank you
[16:12] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: the thing is: i have a hd5650 installed, not a hd4200 like catalyst tells me
[16:12] <avdeveloper> Wolfsherz: but are you having any problems with graphics other than the name?
[16:13] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: actually no, but it seems strange to me
[16:13] <datalay> dr_willis, what s you desktop
[16:13] <datalay> gnome3?
[16:13] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i think it reverts to classic if you don't have the drivers to support gnome3
[16:13] <Wolfsherz> avdeveloper: the amount of memory detected is also wrong of course...
[16:13] <avdeveloper> @Wolfsherz: then that is a problem...
[16:14] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I used to have Gnome-Shell working, so how do I get back the default driver?
[16:14] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:14] <lapion> anyone know hot to get r128 support in oneiric ?
[16:14] <auronandace> avdeveloper: you'd need to reinstall the driver
[16:14] <auronandace> avdeveloper: lanch the restricted drivers thingy
[16:14] <auronandace> launch
[16:14] <avdeveloper> auronandace: ok
[16:15] <avdeveloper> auronandace: additional drivers?
[16:15] <auronandace> avdeveloper: thats the one.
[16:15] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:15] <avdeveloper> auronandace: I had it working without installing any of the fglrx drivers.
[16:16] <korsakof> Hi! Is there a way to set the unity launchers to always open a new instance on left click?
[16:16] <avdeveloper> auronandace: and when I installed these fglrx drivers, Gnome-shell was screwed up
[16:16] <dr_willis> korsakof:  you do know a middle click does that right?
[16:16] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i see, hmm
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: so maybe if I can just completely remove and reinstall gnome-shell, hopefully that would work
[16:17] <korsakof> dr_willis: yes. is there a way to change from middle click to left click
[16:17] <dr_willis> korsakof:  i doubt if theres a way to change it.
[16:17] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i'm likely not the best person to help you, i use xfce and nvidia
[16:17] <avdeveloper> ah
[16:17] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: how about removing gnome-shell?
[16:17] <avdeveloper> auronandace: like an "sudo apt-get remove ***"
[16:18] <korsakof> dr_willis: thanks.
[16:18] <auronandace> avdeveloper: i'd imagine that would take a heap of dependancies with it
[16:18] <harkirt> can anyone can help me?
[16:18] <avdeveloper> auronandace: okay, well thanks for ur time
[16:18] <auronandace> avdeveloper: no worries, sorry i couldn't help
[16:19] <harkirt> auronandace: can you help me?
[16:19] <avdeveloper> auronandace: no problem

[16:23] <Cradam> hello does anyone know of a ppa for java 1.7?
[16:23] <jimjimovich> total n00b question: how do you search for files in Unity on 11.10? The search box in the lens only gives recently used files.
[16:23] <s904s> hello
[16:23] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: can you help?
[16:23] <s904s> somebody can help me
[16:23] <s904s> with a c program that I'm doing?
[16:23] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  have you tried restarting the pc?
[16:23] <mang0> !ask s904s
[16:23] <EvilResistance> Cradam:  i'm not certain there is a PPA.  Oracle's licensing of Java might be incompatible with packaging stuff.  (not certain, but...)
[16:23] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: Yes
[16:23] <mang0> !ask | s904s

[16:24] <Cradam> jimjimovich: type search for files in the unity box
[16:24] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  have you explored iwlist and iwconfig?
[16:24] <harkirt> yes
[16:24] <Cradam> jimjimovich: it should bring up a picture of a magnifying glass
[16:24] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:25] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  has it worked before?
[16:25] <harkirt> i installed ubuntu first time
[16:25] <jimjimovich> thanks Cradam. it has an icon with a question mark. i see this is the same program for searching as before. Is there a way to search from files right from unity?
[16:25] <jimjimovich> or make it index all my files instead of just recently used?
[16:25] <Cradam> jimjimovich: personally i hate unity
[16:25] <jimjimovich> lol
[16:26] <Cradam> the old menu had a search for files dialogue
[16:26] <jimjimovich> i think it's really stupid that you have a search box and it doesn't find files in your home folder
[16:26] <harkirt> how to install the wireless drivers.. i tried the addtional driver but iwconfig not showing my wireless interface ?? http://pastebin.com/Z6waJygP
[16:26] <MonkeyDust> harkirt  i see it's a broadcom 43** wireless driver https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:27] <harkirt> MonkeyDust: ok
[16:27] <Cradam> jimjimovich: it is an application finder mainly
[16:27] <mang0> Is there a program like livestream or join.me, but for linux systems?
[16:27] <jimjimovich> but it has a whole files section
[16:27] <Cradam> jimjimovich: easy way to do it, open nautilus and press the search button
[16:29] <Cradam> takes a while though
[16:29] <jimjimovich> Cradam: I know ... I've been using Ubuntu for 6 years full-time :)  Just had someone ask me about why they couldn't find their files in Unity yesterday ... and I thought it was a darn good question
[16:30] <Cradam> jimjimovich: simple answer, unity sucks
[16:30] <jimjimovich> starting to agree more and more :(

[16:32] <auronandace> uses-natty: its not open source so basically you don't fix it
[16:32] <dr_willis> Hmm.. unity still uses the nautlilus file manager.. so im not sure how its any differnt to find your files...

[16:37] <Xero-> buttons, with killall?
[16:37] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  a web site to look for what exactly?
[16:37] <buttons> so killall python?
[16:38] <Jonii> okay, so i have to give up touchpad clicks to keep using ubuntu :|
[16:39] <Xero-> buttons, i would try that
[16:39] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  in synaptic, look for gpoint blah
[16:40] <buttons> kill some of them but not all, for some reason it does not kill all the python process that have multiple threads in them
[16:40] <Xero-> buttons, killall would kill processes by name.. so if a phytoon process has a slightly different name it wont catch it

[16:40] <ssk_the_gr8> dr_willis: i'll explain, if you've used filehippo.com, you'll see that it has the top 10-15 apps in each category,such as browsers, file transfer, office etc.  i'm looking for a similar website for linux, i don't like websites which have like all the apps available, if you select the office category you get 10000 different apps, I want a website which has a selection of the best apps like filehippo, I hope i'm clear
[16:40] <buttons> ok
[16:40] <joseph210> hello all, do any of you use ubuntu 11.10?
[16:40] <MonkeyDust> gpointing-device-settings - configuration tool for pointing devices
[16:41] <Xero-> buttons, but you can use regular expressions it hink together with killall.. but i think there must be a easier way
[16:41] <compdoc> joseph210, sure
[16:41] <buttons> it would seem like it, I will continue using kill and listing the pids
[16:41] <reinhold> I'm trying to setup usb/IP forwarding using the usbip package. Unfortunately, usbipd always tells me that the usbip_common_mod.ko and usbip.ko kernel modules must be loaded, but there is no ubuntu package that provides them....
[16:41] <joseph210> compdoc, when my computer goes into sleep mode and i try to restart it up. I enter my password
[16:41] <joseph210> but it gets stuck on a screen
[16:42] <Jonii> llutz: ty
[16:43] <uzr007> Heya
[16:43] <uzr007> Does anybody know how to make firefox to backspace shift go forward?
[16:43] <uzr007> I already have this backspace backward
[16:44] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  theres normally not a need for such a site in ubuntu. you use teh package manager to see whats in the repos.  and its best to install whats from the repos.
[16:45] <psikopath> hellp
[16:45] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  theres sites like the linux game tome, and getdeb,
[16:45] <psikopath> hello
[16:46] <dr_willis> state the problem psikopath  :)
[16:46] <psikopath> kkkkkkkk
[16:47] <MonkeyDust> psikopath  is down and out
[16:47] <psikopath> whattt :-(
[16:47] <RaTTuS|BIG> psikopath looks like he needs a new keyboard
[16:48] <psikopath> yeah my keyboard sick..
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> do you have a question, psikopath
[16:49] <psikopath> question??? wait minute i.m thinking :-D
[16:50] <psikopath> my question, how to ignore your bot :-(
[16:50] <theadmin> psikopath: ubottu? Don't. She gives useful advice to users.
[16:51] <auronandace> !ignore | psikopath
[16:51] <psikopath> oh thnk <auronandace>
[16:52] <auronandace> psikopath: ironic that you want to ignore the bot that gave you info you asked for though
[16:52] <Jonii> hey, how come chatting with screen
[16:52] <Jonii> + irssi crashes unity?
[16:53] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  i use screen + irssi, no complaints
[16:53] <Jonii> 11.10?
[16:53] <psikopath> ok i'm try to be friend with bot :-D
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> psikopath  i think you''ve come to the wrong channel
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  something else
[16:55] <Jonii> first this gets stuck for until I press alt+tab, then at some point I no longer can switch between windows. at that point, ctrl-alt-f1 + ctrl-alt-f7 might help
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> Jonii  try byubo, it's an extension for screen
[16:56] <llutz> MonkeyDust: which "something else" uses unity?
[16:56] <psikopath> ok, my compiz cannot enable on ubuntu 11.10?? :-(
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> llutz  no
[16:56] <Jonii> if it doesn't, i gotta restart, restarting unity doesn't work after that anymore
[16:57] <llutz> MonkeyDust: so how is that <MonkeyDust> Jonii  i use screen + irssi, no complaints    helpful/informative if screen+irssi crashes unity on 11.10?
[16:57] <MonkeyDust> llutz  i was too fast
[16:57] <Jonii> ssh + screen + irssi, actually
[16:58] <dr_willis> i have to wonder how one is using the ssh+screen+irssi on unity.
[16:59] <psikopath> brb, restart :-(
[16:59] <MonkeyDust> i know why i don't use unity ;)
[17:00] <Jonii> dr_willis: i open terminal, type "ssh <server>" and go on to screen?
[17:00] <dr_willis> I cant see how a remote ssh session can be affecting the local unity/X server/apps at all...
[17:01] <Jonii> dr_willis: actually, i think its related to typing a lot
[17:01] <dr_willis> typing a lot breaks unity. :)
[17:02] <llutz> nice bug-report, curious about the reactions...
[17:02] <Jonii> it has never frozen when I didnt type stuff the same time
[17:02] <tqrst> can anyone recommend an image viewer that doesn't require installing half of gnome (eog) or half of kde (gwenview)?
[17:02] <ThinkT510> tqrst: ristretto?
[17:02] <r4y> I am trying to update grub from a live cd. How do I do that?
[17:03] <dr_willis> theres that new gnome-image viewer that shows a image  within the file manager... what was it called....
[17:03] <tqrst> ThinkT510: thanks
[17:03] <tqrst> dr_willis: it's called eog
[17:03] <tqrst> and requires gnome
[17:03] <tqrst> unless you meant another one?
[17:03] <ThinkT510> tqrst: no worries (i use xfce)
[17:03] <gunfire007> what is the theme changer in ubuntu called ?
[17:03] <dr_willis> not eog.. and the one i am thinking of is an addon FOR the gnome file manager.
[17:03] <llutz> tqrst: "feh" maybe?
[17:04] <gunfire007> form which we can also change the background wallpaper it was in ubuntu 10.10 gnome 2
[17:04] <dr_willis> !info xv
[17:04] <dr_willis> old skool
[17:04] <llutz> dr_willis: did xv know about png/jpg at all? ;)
[17:04] <dr_willis> llutz:  not sure. havent tried it in ages...
[17:05] <dr_willis> the good old days..
[17:05] <edgy> Hi, correct me if I am wrong but any  one can update any software and put it in a ppa with malicious code and hence hack thousands of computers
[17:05] <korsakof> just another unity question. Is there a way to prevent the switcher to switch apps from all workspace. I would like the switcher to display apps from the current desktop and maybe add a modifier like shift to switch all apps from all workspace...
[17:05] <Combatjuan> Hello.  I'm trying to get the permissions on a directory set to "drwxrwsr-x".  I'm using
[17:05] <dr_willis> edgy:  thats why we caution against using just any ppa
[17:05] <dr_willis> !ppa
[17:05] <gunfire007> what is the theme changer in ubuntu called ?
[17:05] <gunfire007> form which we can also change the background wallpaper it was in ubuntu 10.10 gnome 2
[17:05] <edgy> dr_willis: and how can I know which one I can use safely?
[17:06] <llutz> Combatjuan: chmod 2775 dir
[17:06] <Combatjuan> chmod 2775 <dirname> but that sets the permissions to "drwsrwsr-x".  According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setgid
[17:06] <llutz> Combatjuan: it doesn't
[17:06] <Combatjuan> llutz: Sorry, my ctrl-enters got all messed up.  Anyway, that's what I'm doing.  Is "drwsrwsr-x" == "drwxrwsr-x"?
[17:06] <MonkeyDust> llutz  message received, i did not know the issue was due to unity
[17:08] <Combatjuan> llutz: Is it possible that hardy and lucid simply display the setuid bit on directories differently?
[17:08] <dottstranoforte> ciao a tutti
[17:08] <llutz> Combatjuan: chmod 2775 dir   or just chmod g+s dir/
[17:08] <SoWhat> can somebody tell me, why Share, Synchronise, Stop publishing and Copy public link  choices are disabled in Ubuntu One folder?
[17:08] <llutz> Combatjuan: drwsrwsr-x  = 6775
[17:08] <dottstranoforte> posso chiedere un aiutino ad una persona in chat?
[17:09] <bigbrovar> Hi guys I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on a fujitu Pi3066 laptop everything pretty much works fine except the camera indicator light is always on. anyone experienced this time of issue before ?
[17:09] <RaTTuS|BIG> !it dottstranoforte
[17:09] <RaTTuS|BIG> dottstranoforte !it
[17:09] <ThinkT510> !it | dottstranoforte
[17:10] <RaTTuS|BIG> thats the one ;-p
[17:10] <dottstranoforte> cè un italiano?
[17:11] <Combatjuan> llutz: It's just not working.  chown 2775 backups -> "drwsrwsr-x" ; chown 6775 backups -> "drwsrwsr-x";  Whichever I use, it acts as though the setuid bit is set.  But according to wikipedia the setuid bit is ignored on directories under linux.
[17:11] <Braber01> how do I tell ubuntu that I want my keyring enabled as soon as I login with my login shell?
[17:11] <llutz> Combatjuan: CHMOD lowercase, not chown
[17:11] <Combatjuan> Sorry, mistyped.  Yes, I am using chmod
[17:12] <llutz> Combatjuan: then theres something broken. even if its ignored, it sets/reads fine here (debian + ubuntu 10.10)
[17:12] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Is the filesystem mounted with a uid option?
[17:12] <dr_willis> SoWhat:  the #ubuntuone channel may help better with that.
[17:12] <ninjaaron> Does anyone know a good irc channel for getting support with the `dict` program?
[17:12] <Pr0n-Sifu> does /dev/random collect data from hdd and cdrom activity?
[17:13] <Combatjuan> theadmin: It's ext4 and the only option is "errors=remount-ro".
[17:13] <llutz> theadmin: "uid" is not a valid mount-option for unix-fs
[17:13] <theadmin> llutz: I didn't know which filesystem type it is though -- coulda been some NTFS
[17:14] <theadmin> Combatjuan: I see... hm.
[17:14] <llutz> theadmin: then chown/chmod haven't worked at all
[17:14] <SoWhat> dr_willis: thanks
[17:14] <Combatjuan> FYI: "chmod o-s backups" also doesn't change it.
[17:15] <Pr0n-Sifu> does /dev/random collect data from hdd and cdrom activity?
[17:16] <eSoul> can anyone say they are using zfs on ubuntu 11.10?
[17:16] <Sichvot> How would one set up a remote desktop session.. one that you could log in from the server machine and run a program and then log in with the same account and run another instance of that program of a different one without interacting with the first instance?
[17:17] <Combatjuan> Could it be affected by the directory being owned by root:backup (either owner=root or owner != group)?  I don't know.  Near as I can tell, it is just flat out broken.
[17:17] <ThinkT510> eSoul: i could say it but it wouldn't be true :)
[17:17] <korsakof> is there a way to change the alt-tab behavior in oneiric? I would like alt-tab to show only apps from current workspace...
[17:17] <eSoul> haha, thanks for the heads up ThinkT510
[17:17] <eSoul> Sichvot, you may wanna look at screen if you are just running terminal apps
[17:18] <bullgard6> After ripping a CD, k3b reports: "Removed sound devices. KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed. Do you want KDE to permanently forget about these devices? This is the list of devices KDE thinks can be removed: * Capture: Playback/recording through the PulseAudio server; Output: Intel ICH6 with AD1981B; Output: Playback/recording through the PulseAudio sound...
[17:18] <bullgard6> ...server. Yes - No - Manage Devices"   I wonder  how  can internal sound devices have been removed at all  and how should I answer this message.
[17:18] <ThinkT510> korsakof: is that on unity? if so then you might want to check out ccsm

[17:18] <junglejim> hi, Just upgraded from 10.10 to 11.10  ... looks nice but am finding it runs super slow ... harddrive seems to thrash quite a bit. Any ideas why?
[17:18] <Aldus> Hi. I just bought a brand new Asus X53S which was publicized to have 6Gb of RAM. In the BIOS, indeed, I see 6Gb of RAM available. BUT... if I run "top" from my shell I see "Mem:   2751208k total,  1809572k used,   941636k free,    47924k buffers". Where are the other 4Gb?!
[17:18] <Sichvot> eSoul .. I was thinking of a full gui interface. screen is great for terminal applications i agree but i'm wanting to do it for a complete gnome desktop.
[17:19] <korsakof> ThinkT510: thanks!
[17:19] <eSoul> haha, them Sichvot, let me know if you find something, I havent found anything to take care of that either
[17:19] <eSoul> havent looked super hard though
[17:19] <ThinkT510> korsakof: no worries :)
[17:19] <lapion> anyone know how to get ati-radion r128 support in oneiric ?
[17:20] <Sichvot> eSoul, I know you can do it.. I did it once on 10.04 but I screwed that install up so bad it was unrecoverable. and haven't figure out how i did it.
[17:21] <bullgard6> junglejim: To find out, use Disk Utility.
[17:22] <x404x> i updated smb.conf with the proper workgroup and still after reboot it comes up in the wrong group , why ?
[17:23] <Secret_Hamster> what's the official method of restoring iptables on ubuntu server?
[17:23] <ThinkT510> Aldus: you could try running sudo lshw
[17:24] <bullgard6> !iptables | Secret_Hamster
[17:24] <ThinkT510> Aldus: you may need to install it first (sudo apt-get install lshw)
[17:24] <Secret_Hamster> ahh ufw. oh
[17:24] <Secret_Hamster> better go look at that, used to hand crafting with iptables
[17:25] <Aldus> ThinkT510, thank you, trying
[17:26] <Aldus> ThinkT510, long output from sudo lshw. What is the relevant part?
[17:26] <RaTTuS|BIG> Aldus df -h
[17:27] <ThinkT510> Aldus: pastebin it, lets see
[17:27] <Aldus> http://www.pastie.org/2970397 output from df -h
[17:27] <Aldus> http://www.pastie.org/2970395 output from sudo lshw
[17:28] <korsakof> ThinkT510: thanks. I have activated the old "static application switcher" and deactivate the switcher shortcuts... Work like a charm.
[17:28] <ThinkT510> !yay | korsakof
[17:29] <Aldus> someone on another channel suggested the problem might be that I installed 32bit ubuntu
[17:29] <TBotNik> Hey All:  Trying to solve an install issue with Excel Spreadsheet extensions for company server to run some reports.  Write up at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11514879#post11514879.
[17:29] <junglejim> bullgard6: Thx - Disk seems fine ... It more that I'm finding a general slowness about 11.10 - I have an laptop with 1 Gig mem and an Intel Pentium M  1.6GHz. Is that not enough horse-power for 11.10
[17:29] <ThinkT510> Aldus: yes, 32bit won't address above 4gb
[17:30] <ThinkT510> Aldus: according to your paste you do indeed have 6gb ram
[17:30] <TheMac> what do I need to install in ubuntu to get a simple C++ environment working? As of now, I cannot compile a simple program.
[17:30] <Aldus> ThinkT510, however I see 2.8 which is weird
[17:30] <ThinkT510> Aldus: 4gb and 2gb modules
[17:30] <wingdspur> TheMac: build-essential
[17:30] <ThinkT510> Aldus: 32bit won't let you use more than 4gb
[17:31] <Aldus> ThinkT510, ok...
[17:31] <mikepawns> hey
[17:31] <ThinkT510> Aldus: you really should use 64bit ubuntu
[17:31] <mikepawns> can someone help me with my trackpad?
[17:31] <mikepawns> it was working fine,
[17:31] <mikepawns> i installed java, now it's not showing under xlist
[17:31] <bullgard6> junglejim: That could be the case. I have heard similar complaints. I myself am using a more powerful laptop and I do not have such slow response.
[17:31] <TheMac> wingdspur: So, apt-get install build-essential?
[17:31] <wingdspur> yep
[17:32] <TheMac> how do I turn off Ubuntu's screen lock that happens after a period of inactivity?
[17:32] <bimeggy> hey all, not sure if this is the best place to do this, but I am running 11.10 and my raid 5 array (using mdadm) suddenly split into two and will not join
[17:32] <bimeggy> any ideas?
[17:32] <Aldus> ThinkT510, I wish I knew it before, unfortunately I spent about 10 hours configuring everything I needed :(
[17:32] <Aldus> isn't there another way?
[17:32] <wingdspur> TheMac: that will get you gcc/g++ compilers
[17:32] <TheMac> awesome, got it
[17:32] <ThinkT510> TheMac: check powermanager settings, or screensaver settings
[17:32] <TheMac> thanks a lot
[17:32] <TheMac> im not new to linux, but brand new to Ubuntu and don't know where that is
[17:33] <ThinkT510> Aldus: not really no
[17:33] <mikepawns> hello
[17:33] <dr_willis> TheMac:  top right theres a gear/settings icon :)
[17:33] <ThinkT510> TheMac: oh, if you are using unity i can't help you, i use xfce
[17:33] <Aldus> ThinkT510, ok. You think that running a live cd I could check if the RAM is ok with the 64bit Ubuntu?
[17:33] <dr_willis> a Gearcon? :)
[17:34] <ThinkT510> Aldus: not sure what you mean... will a 64bit livecd use all the ram? yes
[17:34] <dr_willis> http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2011/04/21/the-power-user%E2%80%99s-guide-to-unity/      seems like a decent collection of unity guides/manuals
[17:35] <mikepawns> anyone familiar with alps trackpads?
[17:35] <ThinkT510> Aldus: well, see and be able to use the ram i mean
[17:35] <junglejim> bullgard6: Hmm ... not so happy now after all the backups, downloads and hunting around to make things work. Think I might have to revert to 10.04
[17:36]  * dr_willis has unity tweaked how he likes it.
[17:36] <dr_willis> Been playign with gnome-shell also..
[17:37] <bullgard6> junglejim: Hold on. What is your present desktop environment?
[17:37] <BlackBurn> guys, my 4gb HP pen drive isn't detected anymore. Funny thing is it shows in lsusb command but not in nautilus

[17:40] <bimeggy> any mdadm pros here who can give me a hand with a broken raid5 array?
[17:40] <bluj> err, ignore me. needed ldconfig again
[17:41] <bullgard6> junglejim: I agree. Before reverting back to 10.04 you could install the package gnome-shell and log out. Before you log in,you could select then "GNOME Classic (No effects" in the login menu. Try this and compare its performance with that of Ubuntu 10.04.
[17:42] <junglejim> bullgard6: Is gnome-shell like 10.10's gnome?
[17:42] <ururrur> no
[17:43] <bullgard6> junglejim: No. It is only similar to 10.10'sGNOME.
[17:43] <ururrur> hi mang0
[17:43] <xixion> having a problem with getting compiz to work on my toshiba portege m400
[17:43] <Socky__> I want to bring down eth0, then bring eth0 backup on a linux server that Im sshed into.  If i do ifconfig eth0 down, i will loose my connection and not be able to bring it back up.  How can i do this

[17:45] <Socky__> if i created a script that did ifconfig eth0 down, and then ifconfig eth0 up and exicuted it, would that work?
[17:45] <TheMac> there, problem averted
[17:46] <ThinkT510> Socky_: i was just about to suggest something like that, maybe a cronjob
[17:46] <TheMac> basically, my brother is taking a class...if he fails it, he gets kicked out of the university

[17:55] <junglejim> bullgard6: What abot Unity 2D ... do u know anything about it?
[17:55] <soreau> xixion: Can you pastebin the output of compiz --replace from your terminal to pastebin.com?
[17:55] <MadsRC> Sorry, forgot pastebin guys... Will use that from now on
[17:55] <bullgard6> junglejim: I do not know much about it.
[17:56] <sillyme> anyone? please

[17:56] <TheMac> I'm having trouble with my terminal. I prefer xterm's simple look and aterm can emulate the style perfectly. But since I'm using Linux in VMware, the copy-paste doesn't work too well in xterm/aterm. Is there a way to have Gnome's console look like xterm?
[17:56] <danileigh79> theadmin: Looking for something more along the lines while I am using terminator (3 open terms) using one of the idle terms to simply do a keyword search
[17:56] <bullgard6> !wireless | sillyme
[17:56] <sillyme> I have a problem with my realtek network card for wireless. It sees the networks, but won't connect. I run ubuntu 11.10 on a MSI Wind. I installed it this afternoon
[17:58] <sillyme> according to that website it should work out of the box
[17:58] <tomp711> Looking for insight on a freezing/hanging problem on a Lenovo laptop. Have tried AMD's prop drivers as well as open source drivers with same issues. Trying to find root of the problem.
[17:59] <soreau> ! pm | xixion

[17:59] <soreau> ! pastebin | xixion
[18:00] <xixion> @ soreau that good?
[18:00] <soreau> xixion: I specifically asked you to post to pastebin.com
[18:01] <soreau> xixion: Instead, you flooded me in pm
[18:01] <soreau> xixion: so no, its not good
[18:01] <xixion> sorry
[18:02] <zarlino> hi all, i enabled "suspend when inactive for" in the Power settings but Ubuntu does not suspend
[18:04] <cloudgeek> how setup a python hosting on ubuntu server
[18:06] <xixion> http://pastebin.com/581X3DUZ
[18:07] <BlackBurn_> ok solved. for some reason, it showed as unallocated space (unknown fs). had to format  it.
[18:07] <xixion> @ soreau better?
[18:07] <tdr> any ideas how to bruteforce seahorse?
[18:08] <soreau> xixion: yes. it looks like compiz starts fine. what happens when you run it?

[18:12] <ssk_the_gr8> http://paxbritannica.henk.ca/ i downloaded a game from here, it's a tar.gz , how do i install it
[18:12] <davide> !list
[18:12] <kantor> Hello
[18:13] <tanath> for some reason my system monitor applet keeps resetting back to just CPU after reboot. any ideas?
[18:13] <tanath> was fine for a while, 'til the other day
[18:14] <MadsRC> So, I'm using UFW with these rules: http://pastebin.com/rZPpjtQj but looking though my UFW log I can see entries that says UFW BLOCK on some ports that should be open. The ports look like this: http://pastebin.com/qtTqRrCn
[18:15] <tanath> MadsRC, could be malformed packets
[18:16] <ThinkT510> ssk_the_gr8: i avoid installing things from outside the repos, you'd have to maintain them yourself then
[18:16] <erkan^> which software I have need --> wireless network usb micro adapter 150N ?
[18:16] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  extract the archive. read the games install docs..
[18:16] <dr_willis> !info unp | ssk_the_gr8
[18:16] <dr_willis> ssk_the_gr8:  theres a great many games in the ubuntu repositories.
[18:16] <kantor> Because xorg.conf is not used any more in Ubuntu, because of KMS, it is possible to load the default vesa, vga driver, instead of my specific driver??
[18:17] <dr_willis> kantor:  if the xorg.conf exists. its used.  what driver are you trying to not use?
[18:17] <Odaym> when I'm using a package manager, what does it do when I say "apt-get install pidgin"?
[18:17] <Odaym> does it grab the same source files and do the compiling and installing for me?
[18:18] <Odaym> or does it just grab a .deb and run it?
[18:18] <dr_willis> Odaym:  it download the precompiled .deb and installs it
[18:18] <dr_willis> !apt | Odaym
[18:18] <tanath> erkan^, that's a generic description, not a unique identifier
[18:18] <bullgard6> sillyme: Please use iwconfig to further analyze your problem.
[18:19] <kantor> dr_willis, It is not used, I checked that (because of modeset is used) I have troubles with the Xorg intel driver, I have an intel video card. The display it;s ok for about 10, 15, 20 minutes . . .  then goes blank and nothing can be done, restart is needed (numlock key is not working any more for instance)
[18:19] <erkan^> how make I connect with a Wi-Fi, tanath ?
[18:20] <Hexxeh> Hi, I've got some technical questions regarding Wubi/Lubi, is there a more appropriate channel I can talk in than here?
[18:20] <kanupatar> hello
[18:20] <Spankbot> Are there any recommendations for Speech Recognition software on linux?  Something like Dragon?
[18:20] <erkan^> tanath, are you?
[18:20] <erkan^> ow
[18:20] <erkan^> )-:
[18:21] <bullgard6> Hexxeh: It is all right to put your question here in this channel.
[18:21] <Hexxeh> bullgard6: Okay, thanks
[18:21] <lapion> lapion
[18:21] <Hexxeh> Okay so basically I'd like to use the Wubi bootloader system to boot another OS, but it appears that Wubi uses a loop-mounted ISO image to boot, am I correct? I'd need to boot from a hard disk image, is this possible?
[18:22] <lapion> Hexxeh, go read on wubi..
[18:22] <theadmin> Hexxeh: Wubi does boot a raw hard disk image located in C:\ubuntu\disks\root.disk
[18:22] <junglejim> bullgard6: seems I'm already running Unity 2D - Found this link which shows u how to test: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/10/how-to-quickly-find-out-if-ubuntu-is-running-unity-3d/
[18:22] <ThinkT510> Hexxeh: why are you using wubi? can you use a proper ubuntu install instead?
[18:22] <BPower> Holy crap. Apparently installing medibuntu removes practically every package including ubuntu-desktop. And now I can't do anything because I'm using likewise (internal domain) for signing in.
[18:22] <Hexxeh> ThinkT510: I'm trying to build a Wubi installer for Chromium OS.
[18:22] <BPower> I no longer have sudo access because my user doesn't exist
[18:23] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Ah, I presume that's MBR partitioned disk? Would a GPT image work?
[18:23] <BPower> So I can't do anything to fix it
[18:23] <kanupatar> I am using ubuntu 11.10 and my SD card is showing some isuesm, I have to do a file system check on that card? HOW? the SD card is mounted under /media/rootfs*
[18:23] <theadmin> Hexxeh: I don't think so...
[18:23] <QuaeroScentia> Is it possible to put ubuntu ( or other forms of linux ) on an iPod Classic 6 generation?
[18:23] <lapion> BPower, you shouldn't loose all files when adding medibuntu..
[18:23] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Is there somewhere with technical documentation on how Wubi works? If it doesn't support booting GPT, I'd like to add that functionality.
[18:24] <BPower> lapion, the files are there, the packages have been removed.
[18:24] <bullgard6> junglejim: So compare this performance with that of your previous Ubuntu 10.04 installation. It should not differ much in my opinion.
[18:24] <theadmin> Hexxeh: wubi-installer.org is the place for everything related to it
[18:24] <BPower> lapion, but I have no way to reinstall them because my user no longer exists (because likewise was removed)
[18:24] <lapion> you removed all other repositories and thus lost all packages
[18:25] <lapion> you can allways try to use a console..
[18:25] <BPower> lapion, I can't -- I can't use sudo!
[18:25] <lapion> ctrl-alt-f2
[18:25] <BPower> (anymore)
[18:25] <lapion> or reboot into safe mode..
[18:25] <BPower> brb
[18:25] <junglejim> bullgard6:  It's definitely slower :-( but I did find a way to install the old interface now (called ubuntu classic) http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/08/return-to-ubuntu-classic-desktop-in-ubuntu-11-10/
[18:28] <bullgard6> junglejim: I tested ubuntu-classic and liked it. If your Unity 2D is definitely slower then I would conclude that there is an implementation error. I told you that I do not know much about Unity. So I cannot suggest a remedy.
[18:29] <conntrack> With all this kepler talk I wonder how a planet could be sae
[18:30] <orated> How to set a file immutable?
[18:31] <conntrack> With all this kepler talk I wonder how a planet could be made to stand out in a galaxy/solar system more or even hidden
[18:31] <fhtagn> orated: permissions to 000..?
[18:31] <conntrack> Just in case you didn't want other beings to know you were there if they exist
[18:32] <xro> Hi, i'm looking for someone familiar with diff... i have a project and i think to use it... but i would like to debate about feasability.... anybody?
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> conntrack: linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/11/make-your-files-immutable-which-even.html
[18:32] <dr_willis> xro:  diff is a rather basic tool.. whats to debate about it...
[18:33] <ThinkT510> ActionParsnip: did you mean to send that to orated
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Yep. D'oh. Thanks for the catch
[18:33] <orated> fhtagn: I want to configure it so that no one can change it. I read there is something called securelevel also for it.
[18:33] <orated> one cannot edit*
[18:33] <ssk_the_gr8> thanx for all the help
[18:33] <xro> dr_willis, i would like use it to monitor change into websites.... i bit innovative.... can i debate with you?
[18:34] <orated> Its about /etc/hosts file
[18:34] <fhtagn> dunno. Only know how to play with permissions. messing with chown and chmod should be enough to restrict who can see it / edit it
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> orated: check the link ;-)
[18:34] <orated> ah, sure
[18:36] <orated> ActionParsnip: Is it advisable to make hosts file immutable?
[18:36] <dr_willis> xro:  wont do any good to debate with me on it..  If you are moitoring if web sites changes Im sure theres more specilized tools out.
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> xro: you can use tripwire to watch files and alarm or log changes
[18:37] <notorious> ima li nqkoi ot bg
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> orated: could try it. You can always boot to root recovery mode and switch back if it makes problems
[18:37] <conntrack> I guess a planet could beam really strong lasers into outaspace and beings might see it then find out where it lead
[18:38] <oCean> conntrack: please stop the offtopic talk

[18:39] <Oins> Hi. Kleopatra drops me the error: "IPC parameter error". I use Ubuntu 11.10. Anyone a clue how I can solve this error?
[18:39] <kanupatar> helli
[18:39] <kanupatar> hello
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: what filesystem are you using on it?
[18:39] <preludelinux> hello
[18:40] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: ext3
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: unmount it then read:  man fsck
[18:41] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: hey man, can u tell me the command?
[18:41] <wxl> ok here's today's weird question: is there a way to look up reverse dependencies on a package through the ubuntu package website/
[18:41] <soreau> wxl: reverse dependencies?
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: fscking mounted partitions can break data. You will use the raw device name like /dev/sg1  (yours may be different)
[18:42] <oCean> wxl: why through the site? There is apt-depends apt-rdepends for cli
[18:42] <wxl> soreau: packages that depend on package x rather than those packages that package x needs
[18:42] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: any GUI tools?
[18:43] <xro> ActionParsnip, do you have some experience with tripwire?
[18:43] <wxl> oCean: not in front of the computer
[18:43] <soreau> wxl: Why would you ever want to do that?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: it will also need sudo. I can't give the command as I am on my phone so don't have the man page, nor do I know the block device name. Try reading
[18:44] <wxl> soreau: i'm on lubuntu and i'm not quite sure why this morning's upgrade included nautilus and my system was acking funky afterwards. trying to be proactive.
[18:44] <Exxon> kanupatar, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1005398.html
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> Xro: i only know of it. I've not used it first hand
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: its a simple command dude.
[18:45] <junglejim> bullgard6: thx
[18:45] <xro> ok, i thought about using python difflib to monitor website... but i could use an already developped tool and only code a wrapper, it could be easier...
[18:45] <junglejim> bullgard6: for the help
[18:45] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: I am a newbie dude :(
[18:45] <dr_willis> !fsck
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: you will need to run: sudo fdisk -l     to show the device name
[18:46] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Is it definitely a disk image and not just a partition image? I keep seeing reference to an ext2 disk image, which would suggest it's a partition rather than a full disk
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: everyone is at some point. You learn by doing
[18:47] <theadmin> Hexxeh: It's a disk with one partition, and it's ext3 rather than ext2 from what I'm aware. Not so sure tho, I hate wubi (and neither I use Ubuntu, really)
[18:47] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: thanks man
[18:47] <kanupatar> ActionParsnip: let me try
[18:47] <xro> ActionParsnip, it looks like it's juste based on a hash... which is a really basic solution as it will trigger a lot of false positive (dynamic website and web2.0)...
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> kanupatar: you'll see its simple enough :-). Even with no options I think it will do enough.
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Xro: i see
[18:48] <Baktun13-desktop> shutdown -r 0 is same as "now" ?
[18:49] <Exxon> Baktun13-desktop, shutdown now -h
[18:50] <xro> ActionParsnip, i already provide a hash256 based on the webpage code... but now i would like to be more granular and allow the users to set some part as dynamic...  so, i thouk about diff and set dynamic part as junk... this way they wont be detected as changed...
[18:50] <tanath> my gnome panel doesn't respond to alt+rightclick

[18:51] <tanath> crazytrane, o_O
[18:51] <edoceo> Hey, just found myself on a Jaunty machine, no sources available on mirror - should do some force update to Lucid?
[18:52] <tanath> crazytrane, why did that work? first it was right click, which was good. then it was alt+rightclick, which was stupid... alt+win+rightclick is just nuts
[18:52] <crazytrane> lol i agree
[18:53] <ThinkT510> edoceo: better to fresh install
[18:53] <theadmin> edoceo: You need to do a fresh install if you're upgrading from a EOL (or do some sorcery with APT, which I strongly recommend against)
[18:53] <tanath> crazytrane, who decided to make it worse? >_<
[18:53] <sichvot> Have anyone tried FreeNX as a remote desktop server?
[18:54] <Exxon> tanath, what applet are you trying to remove and readd it again..
[18:54] <crazytrane> tanath, wasn't me.  I promise
[18:54] <crazytrane> lol

[18:55] <tanath> Exxon, i removed and readded it, and it seems to be ok now
[18:55] <Exxon> :))
[18:56] <tanath> Exxon, but seriously, who's bright idea was it to make the context menu shortcut go from rightclick to alt+rightclick, and then alt+win+rightclick??
[18:56] <ix_> what is the default sound recording program in ubuntu?
[18:57] <ThinkT510> tanath: ask gnome devs, i'm glad i use xfce
[18:57] <tanath> ThinkT510, heh. tried it a few times, never cared much for it. not gnome 2-like enough for me
[18:58] <ix_> doesn't anyone here have ubuntu? lol
[18:58] <Exxon> tanath, you will get used to it..
[18:58] <tanath> Exxon, to alt+win+rightclick? no, i won't. that's just plain stupid. i will either change it, or change my OS
[18:58] <ThinkT510> ix_: many do, do they often record stuff? different question
[18:59] <tanath> Exxon, i've yet to see how to change it
[18:59] <theadmin> tanath: Or change your destkop... Try MATE. (pm for details. It's a gnome2 fork)
[18:59] <tanath> theadmin, ubuntu has mate too now?
[18:59] <theadmin> tanath: No, we don't, Mint does, which is why I suggested to PM xD
[18:59] <ix_> ThinkT510, they don't need to record, just look at the sound and video category
[18:59] <theadmin> tanath: It originated from Arch tho so that would work too
[19:00] <tanath> theadmin, ah, lol. yeah, i've been considering mint.
[19:00] <ix_> I want to know what to search for in synaptic
[19:00] <kanupatar> fdisk -l showing nothing
[19:00] <sichvot> im guessing by the silence no one here has tried FreeNX as a remote desktop server.
[19:00] <ix_> sudo fdisk -l
[19:00] <ix_> what is the default sound recording program in ubuntu?
[19:01] <ix_> I want to install it and have no idea what to search for
[19:01] <AlanBell> sichvot: I have used freenx, it is OK, quite fast
[19:01] <sichvot> AlanBell you say it's ok.. is there something better?
[19:02] <ix_> oh, got it, gnome-media, you guys are useless
[19:02] <AlanBell> sichvot: depends what you mean by better. It is fast, but only one connection at a time, if you want multiple viewers then vnc is the way forward
[19:03] <AlanBell> ix_: you could also try audacity if you want something a bit more featurful
[19:03] <ix_> ok

[19:07] <myrmidette> what I edited was my .inputrc
[19:07] <theadmin> Hexxeh: Trough the Windows bootloader (it chainloads GRUB)
[19:07] <Hexxeh> theadmin: No magic going on in the initrd then?
[19:07] <AlanBell> myrmidette: well that is your keyboard mapping file
[19:07] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Or special options required in the kernel
[19:07] <myrmidette> it didn't exist  before, so I created it and added set "completion-ignore-case On"
[19:08] <theadmin> Hexxeh: Nah
[19:08] <myrmidette> maybe it was looking at some other file for its inputrc before and now it's just looking at my one-line file?
[19:08] <AlanBell> myrmidette: just a guess, but I think you have overridden /etc/inputrc
[19:09] <AlanBell> myrmidette: copy /etc/inputrc to ~/.inputrc and then append your setting
[19:09] <myrmidette> yeah I'll do that
[19:09] <myrmidette> stupid of me not to look in /etc
[19:09] <venik212> where do I find a ppd file for a Canon MF6530?  Ubuntu 11.10, 64 bits
[19:10] <AlanBell> myrmidette: do remember you have done it, if at some point in the future /etc/inputrc gets updated then you won't see the updates
[19:10] <myrmidette> it worked thnx :)
[19:10] <myrmidette> I just appended what I wanted to /etc/inputrc
[19:11] <AlanBell> ok, an update will possibly now prompt and ask you what you want to do if it needs to update that file
[19:15] <mikepawns> someone able to help me with my trackpad not working
[19:15] <mikepawns> it worked previously
[19:15] <AlanBell> mikepawns: tell us more about it, what type of trackpad, what version of ubuntu, when did it stop?
[19:16] <mikepawns> alps trackpad, hp dm4-2181 laptop with intel chipset,  ubuntu 11.04 64 bit
[19:16] <craigbass1976>  /share is owned by the user root and the group nobody.  Craig is in the group nobody.  /share has 570 permissions.  How come when craig touches test.txt an ls -l shows this: -rw-r--r-- 1 craig craig       0 2011-12-05 14:07 test.txt  ?  Shouldn't the nobody group own it?
[19:16] <Ruudjah> Is there a gui to control fan speeds for cpu?
[19:16] <mikepawns> stopped today, i installed java and it stopped
[19:17] <mikepawns> now it wont show up in xinput list
[19:17] <Ruudjah> found all kinds of cli google results, but after 4 hours still dont get them
[19:18] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Does the root need to be specified by uuid or is there some way of specifying a partition index?
[19:18] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Usually I'd specify like sdx3 but given it's a loop device loop0 I'm not sure how this works
[19:18] <theadmin> Hexxeh: errrr for the kernel you can use the uuid, the label or plain /dev/sd*, same goes to fstab
[19:19] <theadmin> Hexxeh: Oh loop0? Well I beleive you might be able to use /dev/loop0 but...
[19:19] <Hexxeh> theadmin: Just trying to boot what was USB stick image, root would usually be sdb3
[19:19] <AlanBell> mikepawns: so it stopped after installing java?
[19:20] <mikepawns> yeah, i  uninstalled the java from software center
[19:20] <mikepawns> after it stopped
[19:20] <mikepawns> but it still isn't showing
[19:20] <craigbass1976> What I'd like is a way to make any file getting written in /share (and it's subdirectories) to be owned by soandso, regardless of who writes the file.  Is that possible?
[19:21] <AlanBell> mikepawns: I would be surprised if it was anything to do with java to be honest
[19:21] <trism> craigbass1976: chmod g+s /share; maybe?
[19:22] <mikepawns> me too
[19:24] <AlanBell> mikepawns: is it working on a live cd?
[19:24] <tyler_d> how do you specify a port with snmpwalk?
[19:24] <AlanBell> just to rule out bios settings and hardware failure
[19:24] <mikepawns> havent tried that
[19:30] <kalib> Hi people. After my last upgrade, I can't log on my ubuntu. Not anymore. But the problem is notmy password. If I go to tty, I can log on, normal. But on graphical interface, when I type my password, nothing happens and I return to log in interface. Any sugestion?

[19:40] <uzr007> UBOONTU
[19:40] <uzr007> I LUV YOU
[19:40] <sskalnik> Ubuntu loves you too! <3
[19:41] <venik212> any help with canon MF6530 printer?
[19:41] <slugzzz> What's the prblem, venik212?
[19:42] <theadmin> kalib: Did you try selecting the session manually with the gear menu?
[19:42] <kalib> theadmin, yeah. it happens the same.
[19:42] <alex116> hi, I'm looking for a way to have many X desktop sessions on my pc. I want one local session on my monitor connected to my pc and a remote one where someone can use gnome in parallel over the local network. is there a solution for this?
[19:42] <uzr007> <3
[19:43] <sskalnik> I'm getting all sorts of "permission denied" errors when trying to build a package. I've debianized some plain source. The source folder is under /usr/src. When I run debuild or dpkg-buildpackage, I get permission denied errors. What should I change?
[19:44] <sskalnik> I'm loath to use sudo or to chown anything unnecessarily.
[19:45] <alex116> sorry I don't know but doesn't it tell you on which files it is failing?
[19:45] <sskalnik> I could use pbuilder to build the package, but I need a .dsc to feed it... and debuild -S also gives permission errors.
[19:45] <sskalnik> alex116, Are you referring to me?
[19:45] <alex116> yes
[19:46] <sskalnik> !paste
[19:46] <sskalnik> http://paste.ubuntu.com/760807/
[19:47] <sskalnik> I get similar errors with other commands to build source or binary
[19:48] <cichy> hi
[19:48] <trism> sskalnik: why are you building it in /usr/src? build it somewhere in your home directory
[19:48] <EvilResistance> ^
[19:48] <Adaken> Hi.
[19:48] <sskalnik> trism, Why is that a better method?
[19:49] <cichy> from poland
[19:49] <sskalnik> trism, Not challenging it, just curious.
[19:49] <Athostle> This place is good for questions, right? Need to make sure before I ask.
[19:49] <Athostle> :>
[19:49] <sskalnik> Athostle, yes
[19:49] <Athostle> Thanks.
[19:49] <alex116> sskalnik, because you will surely have create file permissions
[19:49] <Athostle> Now, I'm going to dual boot with Ubuntu,
[19:49] <sskalnik> alex116, should I not have them in /usr/src?
[19:49] <Athostle> I'm using the WuBi installer, and I'm running Windows Vista,
[19:50] <alex116> sskalnik, I'm not sure
[19:50] <Athostle> will the Boot Manager open every time I restart my computer, so I can switch through OSs?\
[19:50] <ThinkT510> Athostle: don't bother with wubi, do a real install
[19:50] <trism> sskalnik: /usr/src should in general be used for when system services need to build packages, like dkms. otherwise as alex116 suggests, you would need to mess with the permissions of /usr/src to allow your user to build there
[19:50] <Athostle> Too late, I'm at a minute, and I'm horrible with computers, so this seems the safer option.
[19:50] <sskalnik> trism, thanks, that makes sense
[19:50] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[19:50] <Athostle> Thanks, though.
[19:51] <crupulus> Hey all!, how can
[19:51] <Athostle> Welp,
[19:51] <Athostle> if my computer crashes, I might be on later.
[19:51] <Athostle> Heres hopinh.
[19:51] <Athostle> hoping*
[19:52] <crupulus> Hey all!, is "lspci -vv" supposed to give details on my wireless card ? If so, where exactly ? because there are like 1000 lines of stuff i don't know anything about. Ty!
[19:52] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[19:52] <AlanBell> crupulus: is it a pci card?
[19:52] <ThinkT510> Athostle: partitioning is probably the hardest part (and it is dead easy when you know how); you could mess around with a real ubuntu install inside a vm (to get the hang of partitioning)
[19:52] <Athostle> I have Ubuntu in VMWare,
[19:52] <crupulus> What do you mean ?
[19:52] <Athostle> I'll try messing around with it later,
[19:52] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[19:53] <AlanBell> crupulus: first do just lspci, and lsusb and find out where it is before looking at verbose information
[19:53] <Athostle> but right now I can't risk the slightest mistake, it could cost me an Xbox for Christmas. My parents are fed up with me altering my possessions.
[19:53] <slugzzz> Athostle, the live disk makes it VERY easy to install ubuntu side by side with windows.
[19:53] <Athostle> But I read that it has slower speeds,
[19:53] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[19:53] <Athostle> and someone told me dual-booting would just be nicer.
[19:54] <slugzzz> Right.. that is what I am saying...
[19:54] <AlanBell> crupulus: lspci gives information about all the cards plugged in to your pci bus, lsusb gives information about all the things plugged in to USB, your wireless device could be either
[19:54] <Athostle> I mean,
[19:54] <Athostle> dual-booting when it's on the computer, not a USB/CD
[19:54] <crupulus> AlanBell, is it "network controller" ? It says broadcom blabla, that means I have a broadcom wifi card, exact?
[19:54] <slugzzz> Okay, make yourself a live disk, and boot from the live disk and install from the live disk.
[19:54] <slugzzz> It's really hard to mess up.
[19:54] <crupulus> Broadcom Corporation Device 4727
[19:54] <Athostle> Okay, thanks.
[19:54] <AlanBell> crupulus: yeah, that sounds about right
[19:54] <Athostle> Hmmm, wait.
[19:55] <ThinkT510> Athostle: dual booting is better but not through wubi
[19:55] <Athostle> WuBi will work though, right?
[19:55] <sskalnik> trism, alex116 Woot, got debuild -S to work in ~
[19:55] <Athostle> Because my installer is already at "Expanding."
[19:55] <ThinkT510> Athostle: wubi is meant to be more of a taster than a solution to a problem
[19:55] <trism> sskalnik: excellent, glad it is working now
[19:56] <Athostle> Taster is fine, I'm not going to be using Ubuntu all that much.
[19:56] <Athostle> I'll be using it enough to not want that USB trial, though.
[19:56] <slugzzz> Either way, Athostle, installing with WuBi and partitioning are both very easy.
[19:57] <Athostle> Thanks, I just needed to know, though,
[19:57] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[19:57] <Athostle> every time I restart my computer (I have to do this properly, can't use my power button, right?) the boot manager will open, is that correct?
[19:57] <kz3> what are going to be the best features in ubuntu 12.04?
[19:57] <Raliegh> Anyone care to help me run an Icecast stress test by tuning into my radio? Sorry, not really debian/ubuntu related but it's got the most users of any channels on freenode. :)
[19:58] <slugzzz> Athostle, yes.
[19:58] <ThinkT510> kz3: /join #ubuntu+1
[19:58] <AlanBell> kz3: it will be much like 11.10, but more polished and stable
[19:58] <Athostle> Thanks. WuBi is finished, so I have to go for a bit. Cya.
[19:58] <slugzzz> Cheers.
[19:58] <AlanBell> f0x: hold down shift from power up to get to the grub menu and from there you can select a recovery option
[19:58] <inashdeen> hi , i cant run java on chromium for ubuntu. is there a way to fix that?
[19:59] <kz3> AlanBell: I am very unhappy with 11.10, its not that stable and I have also stopped using unity. I use GNOME 3.2
[19:59] <Thell> Hi all!  I have a VM with Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope on it ( I hardly ever boot it ) and was going to upgrade it to the latest, update manager shows 10.04.3 LTS as the 'new distribution release', but when [upgrade] is clicked a msg stating the tool doesn't support the upgrade is displayed...
[19:59] <Thell> What's my upgrade path here?
[19:59] <inashdeen> AlanBell : ;) i am releasing my own version of ubuntu based linux.
[19:59] <AlanBell> kz3: maybe give precise a spin and file bugs (and talk in #ubuntu+1 about it)
[19:59] <f0x> alabala, i did select recovery
[20:00] <f0x> but it only has read only and root shell without networkinng
[20:00] <imark> does anyone know how to remove a theme from the gnome-tweak-tool
[20:00] <ThinkT510> Thell:: better to fresh install, 9.04 and 9.10 are both eol
[20:00] <f0x> and without asking for passwd
[20:00] <AlanBell> Thell: do you need to upgrade or will a fresh install work fine?
[20:00] <Thell> AlanBell, need to upgrade unfortunately
[20:01] <savid> I think something's wrong with my disk i/o.  Small files (eg, simple text files) seem to take longer than they should to save and load.   It's a fairly new computer -- how can I find out what's wrong?
[20:01] <ThinkT510> !eol | Thell
[20:01] <AlanBell> Thell: there is an installation option that will do a new install preserving /home, would that work for you?
[20:01] <Thell> ThinkT510: only if I absolutely must, setting up the workflow on that was a chore and a half
[20:01] <Thell> AlanBell: preserves only /home ?
[20:02] <ThinkT510> Thell: i expect upgrading might be a chore and a half too
[20:02] <Thell> :P
[20:02] <inashdeen> bump
[20:03] <crupulus> AlanBell, what is the diff between Network Controller and Ethernet controller ? The ethernet one says Realtek Semiconductor, the network says Broadcom. Which one tells me details on my wifi ward please ?
[20:04] <inashdeen> How do i edit the ubiquity?
[20:04] <ThinkT510> inashdeen: the ubuntu installer? why do you want to edit it?
[20:06] <AlanBell> crupulus: I would suggest pasting the lines into google, but the network controller is likely to be your wireless card ethernet controller will be the wired one
[20:06] <AlanBell> inashdeen: rather than releasing your own version why not work on improving Ubuntu?
[20:07] <inashdeen> ThinkT510 : i am building my own RGOS ( remastered group of OS) i want to remove the update and install codec option
[20:08] <AlanBell> inashdeen: "bzr branch lp:ubiquity" to grab the code and mess about with it
[20:08] <ThinkT510> inashdeen: i think ubiquity is written in python
[20:08] <AlanBell> inashdeen: you will need to be somewhat familiar with python and glade
[20:08] <inashdeen> AlanBell : i am active in my own loco. i am from loco team malaysia. I  work in translation too. now, why would i want to build my own distro. it is kinda complex story. Ubuntu is perfect, but not full enough. i am working on a project to prmote linux to new user. the prob is, most of them got stuck, they just dont know what to play with,
[20:09] <Thell> ThinkT510 & AlanBell: I found a post with a report of success on doing CD upgrade to 9.10, then dist-upgrade to 10.04 LTS.  I think I'll give that a shot.
[20:09] <inashdeen> AlanBell : is there no way to mess with it right from an installed Ubiquity? i just want to remove the update button
[20:09] <AlanBell> inashdeen: there is a project about loco remastering
[20:09] <ThinkT510> inashdeen: sorry, but it sounds as if you've got a solution to a problem that doesn't exist
[20:10] <AlanBell> inashdeen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/LocalizedImagesRollout
[20:10] <inashdeen> Alanbell : my loco dont build remaster
[20:10] <AlanBell> inashdeen: they do if you do!
[20:10] <ThinkT510> Thell: up to you, don't mean to be negative but i don't expect it to go well
[20:10] <inashdeen> ThinkT510 : not sure what that suppose to mean, however i do need to fix open jdk on chrome. thanx in advance
[20:11] <inashdeen> AlanBell : my case is a bit different. i am malaysian, but studying in egypt. What i am doing is part of my winter campaign. i promote linux among malaysian students in egypt
[20:12] <AlanBell> great, anyhow the tools for doing that remastering will probably be useful
[20:13] <Costa> boa noite

[20:17] <AlanBell> inashdeen: go to about:plugins in chromium, you should have java and icedtea
[20:17] <AlanBell> opensanjib: works for me
[20:17] <Yahosain> Hi something very strange happend to me.I had left the linuxmint 11 cd in the cd drive and it booted ubuntu with account named mint !!!!!!!!
[20:18] <Yahosain> actually the dvd
[20:18] <sskalnik> Yahosain, remove the DVD and reboot
[20:18] <Yahosain> I know that
[20:18] <Yahosain> I just wanted to know how did that happend
[20:18] <Yahosain> :)
[20:18] <mang0_> Yahosain: If your boot order has DVD first.....then it'll boot from the DVD
 please paste the key here i need it or send me the key file
[20:19] <CaBeTuX> exit
[20:19] <sskalnik> Yahosain, your system was set to boot from DVD first
[20:19] <mang0_> Yahosain: You can change the boot order in BIOS
[20:19] <inashdeen> alanBell : i cant find that
[20:19] <sskalnik> Running into some pbuilder issues: http://paste.ubuntu.com/760840/
[20:20] <ThinkT510> inashdeen: type about:plugins in the address bar
[20:20] <tyler_d> opensanjib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/760849/
[20:21] <Yahosain> I suppose you guys didnt understand what I said.It showed the linux mint boot screen but booted Ubuntu (11.10 which I have installed on my pc) and didnt have my login information.its account username was mint.and also had a guest account
 thanks
[20:21] <tyler_d> opensanjib: np
[20:21] <tyler_d> Yahosain: I'm not sure I see the point though?
[20:21] <inashdeen> ThinkT510: i found icedtea: is it enabled, but my java is still not working, i restarted but it didnt make any differences
[20:22] <AlanBell> inashdeen: how are you testing your java?
[20:22] <ThinkT510> inashdeen: sorry, i don't use java
[20:23] <sskalnik> Yahosain, if you leave the DVD in the drive and reboot, your computer will load the live DVD, which has those accounts.
[20:23] <Hduwusj> Help me please!!!! http://bit.ly/uPBolO
[20:23] <Yahosain> The point is that it was very strange for me that linux mint booted ubuntu with mint account.I think it shall boot either mint (from dvd) or ubuntu (from HDD)
[20:23] <Hduwusj> Help http://bit.ly/uPBolO
[20:23] <tables> does the ubuntu livecd come with gparted?
[20:23] <AlanBell> Hduwusj: I am not clicking a bit.ly link wiht no information about why I should do that. Ask your question
[20:23] <xangua> yes tables
[20:23] <ThinkT510> Yahosain: no, it booted mint which is based off of ubuntu
[20:23] <jesper> Hduwusj explain your problem instead of just saying "help" and a link
[20:24] <inashdeen> alanBell : I used Sun java testing site as well as testing randomly here : http://www.kampungchat.net/
[20:24] <sskalnik> Yahosain, what you are suggesting is in fact what is already the case. ;)
[20:25] <pertutatis> hi, anyone know a good tutorial for using my TV as screen?
[20:25] <Yahosain> !!??
[20:26] <sskalnik> Yahosain, your machine wasn't booting into Ubuntu with an account from the DVD . It was booting into the DVD. Mint is based on Ubuntu, so it may have looked like it was your Ubuntu install, but it was not.
[20:26] <AlanBell> inashdeen: works for me in chromium, not quite sure where it is going wrong for you
[20:27] <inashdeen> AlanBell : ok, so how do i do a staep by step diagnosis?
[20:28] <VIPER-II> Classic one.    Trying to get a newer driver i ended up messing my current display driver. Now i can only access my Ubuntu through SSH cli.
[20:29] <VIPER-II> after laughing me out, can you tell me how to get the ATI driver back on track?
[20:30] <VIPER-II> Classic one.    Trying to get a newer driver i ended up messing my current display driver. Now i can only access my Ubuntu through SSH cli.
[20:30] <VIPER-II> how do i fix it?
[20:30] <Yahosain> Oh c'mon,Ubuntu 11.10 and linux mint 11 are very different.What I actually saw was the linux mint boot screen saying "automatic boot in 10 9 ..." and then LightDM boot manager trying to login into an account named mint,which I didnt have the password.so I chose guest account.and it was ubuntu 11.10.and ofcourse it was my HDD because there is no other way it could come from
[20:31] <jesper> inashdeen: when you type "java -version" in a terminal window, does it show you have Java installed (and what version)?
[20:31] <trism> sskalnik: I haven't tried it, but this seems like a decent guide to building a dkms package, which may help you out: http://tjworld.net/wiki/Linux/Ubuntu/Kernel/BuildDebianDKMSPackages
[20:31] <inashdeen> jesper : unrecognized option, could not create virtual machine
[20:32] <callum>  im new to ubuntu. i have it on my netbook. how do i download itunes?
[20:32] <AlanBell> Yahosain: sounds like the Mint DVD decided you would be better off using Ubuntu
[20:32] <ThinkT510> !itunes | callum
[20:32] <jesper> inashdeen sounds like something is wrong with your Java installation
[20:32] <Yahosain> I suppose its a linux mint bug which mounted for example my sda10  filesystem instead of its own filesystem
[20:32] <callum> thank you.
[20:33] <sskalnik> trism, Thanks, but that doesn't use pbuilder
[20:33] <inashdeen> jesper :how do i do clean uninstall and reinstall then?
[20:33] <jesper> inashdeen you could try re-installing packages openjdk-6-jre and/or icedtea-plugin
[20:33] <Guest48519> Ubuntu 11.10 has a fast boot up for me on my acer aspire dual core laptop.  Performance is better after upgrading to 3.0.0-13-generic kernel.
[20:33] <mikepawns> AlanBell didn't work
[20:34] <inashdeen> jesper :that gimme openjdk-6-jre is already the newest version. openjdk-6-jre set to manually installed.
[20:34] <urthmover> byobu where have you been all my life
[20:34] <trism> sskalnik: well, once you have the package, you can use debuild -S and then use pbuilder. my guess looking at the output was that you didn't create the package correctly, most of that guide is about creating a kernel module package using dkms
[20:35] <Guest48519> For those wanting a performance boost--uninstall Libre Office.
[20:35] <sskalnik> trism, Yeah, I have done debuild -S and then tried pbuilder
[20:36] <jesper> inashdeen you could try removing it (sudo apt-get remove openjdk-6-jre) and then installing it again (sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre)
[20:36] <written> anyone familar with gitweb package on ubuntu server 11.10?
[20:36] <AlanBell> mikepawns: that was the trackpad not working on a livecd?
[20:36] <sskalnik> Also, I need a piece of hardware and accompanying software that track my eyes and automatically shifts my keyboard control to the appropriate window
[20:37] <AlanBell> mikepawns: sounds like hardware failure then :(
[20:37] <written> browsing gitweb i always get: 404 - No projects found
[20:37] <written> but there are projects and project_root is configured in /etc/gitweb.conf
[20:37] <inashdeen> jesper : by the way this is my update-alternative error : http://pastebin.com/dCN4PKtE
[20:37] <AlanBell> sskalnik: there is some eye tracking software here http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/opengazer/ not sure it is in the repos
[20:38] <sskalnik> AlanBell, That was a joke, but I will check that link anyway
[20:39] <jesper> inashdeen hmmm... looks like you might have manually changed stuff in your Java install? did you move it to another directory manually?
[20:39] <inashdeen> jesper : i didnt. i used the iced-tea command
[20:39] <AlanBell> sskalnik: oh! I do stuff with accessibility so I missed the joke :)
[20:40] <jesper> inashdeen the error messages mean that the update-alternatives cmd can't find Java at the expected location /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
[20:40] <TheMac> Can Gnome's Console be resized to use the same font as xterm's standard one?
[20:40] <TheMac> ie, black, fixed font size, etc
[20:41] <written> so, anyone can help me with the gitweb configuration?
[20:41] <jesper> inashdeen can you check if that dir exists on your system?
[20:41] <VIPER-II> anyone here has any experience whatsoever with any Download Manager in Ubuntu? Who wants to talk to me?
[20:42] <written> noone using gitweb?
[20:42] <sskalnik> AlanBell, That sounds like really cool work
[20:43] <callum> how do i connect to my server and does it matter if its a windows server?
[20:43] <html> written, http://gofedora.com/how-to-install-configure-gitweb/
[20:43] <AlanBell> callum: remmina is a good tool to connect to a remote windows desktop using RDP protocol
[20:44] <callum> i dont know what that means. im new to ubuntu
[20:45] <html> written, ?
[20:46] <AlanBell> callum: it isn't an ubuntu thing, RDP is a windows thing
[20:46] <AlanBell> callum: there is an application called remmina in the ubuntu software centre that is an RDP client
[20:46] <tyler_d> callum: what do you mean "connect your server?" and yes, depending on what you want to do it will matter.
[20:47] <callum> tyler_d: my music and files are stored on the server and i need to access it to put it on banshee
[20:47] <tyler_d> callum: you will want to read up on fstab, and smb
[20:48] <callum> fstab?
[20:48] <tyler_d> callum: you are interested in "mounting" your windows server. you will want to start off by ensuring the machines are networked properly and that that directory is shared
[20:48] <tyler_d> !fstab
[20:49] <AlanBell> callum: oh, you just want to connect a drive to a share?
[20:50] <callum> AlanBell: sure? i guess
[20:50] <AlanBell> callum: ok, so in nautilus the file browser in the file menu there is a connect to server option
[20:51] <AlanBell> in that you can choose windows share and fill in all the details and you will be able to browse files on the server
[20:51] <Hexxeh> theadmin: you sure root.disk is a disk image? when booted to ubuntu, / is mounted to /dev/loop0, can't see any way of booting from a specific partition on the disk
[20:51] <callum> ok cool. thanks
[20:51] <caaakeeey> best version for client development?
[20:51] <theadmin> Hexxeh: I am not, as stated before, I haven't used WUBI or Ubuntu for ages. That's how it used to be at least...
[20:52] <tyler_d> Hexxeh: modify the boot loader... disk is controlled in there via root(0,0) so partition 2 would therefor be root(0,1)
[20:53] <avinashhm> Hi friends, i am trying to install 'beyondcompare' ... i see below error - "Err http://www.scootersoftware.com/ stable/non-free bcompare i386 3.2.4-13298" "404  Not Found" ... .more logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/760878/ .. can some one pls help me with this ?
[20:53] <Hexxeh> tyler_d, theadmin: during boto it kernel panics because it cant' mount the root, and when listing disks all it lists is partitions on the physical disk
[20:54] <ztag100> hey... need some help with the menu bars not showing up in
[20:54] <fabioqc> q: im installing ubuntu 10.10 with the minimal cd using CLI. will "$sudo apt-get install ubuntu-core" provide me with a desktop environment? TIA.
[20:54] <ztag100> Ubuntu
[20:55] <theadmin> ztag100: Do you mean the bars that normally contain "File", "Edit", "View" and such?
[20:55] <ztag100> but they will show up just fine with 2d
[20:55] <ztag100> Yes, that and the launch bar
[20:55] <theadmin> ztag100: Oh, sounds like a problem with the GPU driver
[20:55] <ztag100> so.. I'm stuck in 2D for now
[20:56] <theadmin> ztag100: Try installing the propertiary drivers for your card, if any
[20:56] <ztag100> don't exist
[20:57] <tyler_d> Hexxeh: wow. might have to reference it by the hd... or alternately try using a live cd to figure out which partition you should be pointed at
[20:57] <ztag100> any other option
[20:57] <theadmin> ztag100: None tbh.
[20:58] <ztag100> It used to work
[20:58] <ztag100> it just stoped yesterday
[20:58] <ztag100> I installed ubuntu the other day
[20:59] <fabioqc> q: im installing ubuntu 10.10 with the minimal cd using CLI. will "$sudo apt-get install ubuntu-core" provide me with a desktop environment? TIA....
[20:59] <ztag100> I encountered the problem after following this guide: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2010/10/broadcom-wireless-driver-fix-in.html can I undo it?
[21:00] <ztag100> wait
[21:00] <ztag100> not that one
[21:00] <ztag100> It was another guide
[21:00] <avinashhm> for solving the above apt-get install error, should i add the the url to some apt file ? so that it can pick up from there ? not sure ..
[21:00] <ztag100> one second
[21:00] <written> now anyone know gitweb configuration?
[21:01] <amr_> join #sumodev
[21:01] <html> written,  what do you nned
[21:01] <ztag100> the one about EGMD on this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo
[21:01] <written> html, well i always get "404 - No projects found" from gitweb
[21:02] <ztag100> can I undo this?
[21:02] <doc|work> hello, a client I'm connecting to has a vpn in place. I've never used a vpn, can anyone tell me if all data passes through the vpn if I follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VPNClient ?
[21:02] <ztag100> will it cause major errors?
[21:02] <written> html, but there are at lease gitolite-admin and testing repositories
[21:03] <html> trythe mirror?
[21:03] <Illusioneer> I am curious, is there a command in the hosts file for includes?  I want to have a group of block of domains pointing to localhost (blocking spam) and just reference it from my dropbox account
[21:03] <ztag100> anyone?
[21:04] <written> html, git-daemon still starts with /var/cache/git ;-(
[21:04] <html> whats that?
[21:06] <html> is it the app or something else wrong?
[21:07] <written> seems gitweb is wrong. everything else works as it should
[21:09] <callum> ok. im completely new and dumb to linux. i have it on my net book. im trying to access my server thats in the basement to put music on to banshee. but it says my server isnt mounted. what do i do?
[21:12] <klj613> how do i give read permissions to a group for a folder?
[21:12] <klj613> via cli
[21:12] <xangua> what directory klj613 ¿
[21:12] <doc|work> klj613: just the folder or the files contained in it and its subfolders?
[21:12] <klj613> /var/www/phpmyadmin
[21:13] <klj613> everything in the folder
[21:13] <doc|work> klj613: chmod -R 0777 /path/to/folder
[21:13] <html> callum,  first tell us what you say and the details of both pcs ,,,,  (this way theres not guesssing,,, and you wont get mad for not being understood,,, so do this from now on
[21:13] <doc|work> klj613: but you REALLY should read the man page on chmod so you know what 777 is for.
[21:13] <grkblood> is the loss packet % accumulated or is it reference to only the previous hop?
[21:13] <doc|work> klj613: or some web explanation
[21:14] <doc|work> klj613: this stuff is very important
[21:14] <AlanBell> doc|work: don't use octal
[21:14] <guntbert> klj613: NOT 777!!
[21:14] <doc|work> why not?
[21:14] <klj613> doc|work: i understand it a bit, cant remember exactly atm. Owner, Group, and User? 7 = all permissions each
[21:14] <klj613> Owner, Group, Everything? lol not sure
[21:14] <AlanBell> doc|work: because he asked for read, and you gave read/write to world
[21:14] <callum> well the server is windows and my  computer is ubuntu.
[21:14] <doc|work> AlanBell: ah, sorry, I didn't see the read
[21:15] <guntbert> doc|work: don't recommend 777 on a probably exposed directory
[21:15] <AlanBell> klj613: ok, forget the 777 stuff, the permissions are wrx (read/write execute) for each of user, group and other
[21:15] <doc|work> guntbert: that's why I said he should read the man page
[21:15] <AlanBell> klj613: so if you want to allow other (people who are not the owner or in the group owner) read access then you want to to chmod o+r filename
[21:15] <guntbert> doc|work: we are supposed to be really helpful and not give possibly dangerous advice
[21:16] <AlanBell> "chmod o+r" adds read access to others. chmod go+r would add read access to group and others.
[21:16] <doc|work> guntbert: what's  unhelpful about telling a person this stuff is very important and they should read the man page to understand what they're doing?
[21:16] <klj613> i want to ensure the group www-data has read permissions, i created the folder via ssh on 'sudo' so at the moment i think the owner is root with no group?
[21:17] <AlanBell> klj613: you might see people talking about numbers like 777 or 644 or whatever. That is a shorthand for the rwx in binary (111 is 7)
[21:17] <guntbert> doc|work: don't tell them to use dangerous commands in the first place - please :)
[21:17] <doc|work> guntbert: it came with a disclaimer.
[21:17] <AlanBell> klj613: you can do ls -l to see the current permissions and owner
[21:18] <avinashhm> Hi
[21:18] <klj613> i understand the numbers, kind of
[21:18] <KettleCooked> Updated my Ubuntu, now I have a "start menu" to the left, but how can I move it down to the bottom of the screen?
[21:18] <avinashhm> Hi friends, i am trying to install 'beyondcompare' ... i see below error - "Err http://www.scootersoftware.com/ stable/non-free bcompare i386 3.2.4-13298" "404  Not Found" ... .more logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/760878/ .. can some one pls help me with this ?
[21:19] <klj613> http://pastie.org/2971634 the "ln -l" result
[21:19] <guntbert> doc|work: disclaimers are supposed to protect the one who uses them, not the one who applies the advice given
[21:19] <AlanBell> klj613: permissions like -rw-r--r-- are good (that happens to be 644 in octal, but really octal permissions make people automatically do the wrong thing without understanding it)
[21:19] <doc|work> guntbert: that's not what it was, and that's obvious.
[21:20] <klj613> i want to give php and nginx permissions to the folder and its files. and the user who runs php/nginx is www-data
[21:20] <guntbert> doc|work: may I PM you? (it is getting rather off topic here)
[21:20] <doc|work> guntbert: sure
[21:21] <KettleCooked> This here "Dash Home", new in Ubuntu 11. Can I move it down to bottom?
[21:21] <xangua> there is an alternative launcher plugin that shows in the bottom KettleCooked, but is not officialy supported http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-customise-unity-like-never-before/
[21:21] <AlanBell> klj613: you might want to change the owner of the file using chown klj613:www-data filename, that would make you the owner and www-data the group owner (the middle g set of rwx permissions)
[21:21] <KettleCooked> xangua: thanks. I'm using Ubuntu on my 2nd monitor to the right and have the menu on the left is really problematic that way
[21:22] <klj613> AlanBell: thanks, exactly what i needed :)
[21:22] <xangua> KettleCooked: ooh you mean to MOVE the launcher between monitors¿ i don't think you can do that....for now
[21:25] <jesper> KettleCooked yes you can put the dash at the bottom see for example http://123linuxtutorials.com/ubuntu-tutorials/how-to-move-unity-launcher-to-the-bottom-of-the-screen-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/
[21:26] <KettleCooked> xangua: no kinda what jespers link hinted at, I'm half into the first link you posted though
[21:26] <KettleCooked> just in this one monitor, it's in a virtual machine
[21:29] <bowikaxu_> Hi there
[21:29] <bowikaxu_> any of you has knowledge of ubuntu clobber?
[21:29] <Jonii> how does ubuntu compare to the other distros in reliability?
[21:29] <guntbert> !ot | Jonii
[21:30] <trollax0r> how does a ford pinto compare to a chevy nova?
[21:30] <Jonii> i dont know what either of those is
[21:30] <trollax0r> i rest my case
[21:30] <KettleCooked> If I'm missing /dev/dsp, what can I do to find it? Want to record audio from /dev/dsp with ffmpeg, but perhaps running Ubuntu in Virtual Machine is problematic for this? I have audio in the system, can play youtube videos etc..
[21:30] <bowikaxu_> i recently installed a server with clobber but i am not able to attach any instance
[21:31] <trollax0r> my laptop fan won't stop
[21:31] <trollax0r> i'm using an asus
[21:31] <bowikaxu_> any good tutorial, doc, forum about clobber?
[21:34] <Jonii> okay, so, the question related to ubuntu is, is there a way to stop ubuntu 11.10 from crashing all the time, and as a bonus question, does anyone know if it's crashing so much because linux itself is unreliable, or because of stuff thats ubuntu-specific?
[21:34] <trollax0r> Jonii:  yeah it's linux
[21:34] <Jonii> typing text to irssi causes unity to crash and burn
[21:34] <trollax0r> I recommend installing mirc under wine
[21:35] <guntbert> trollax0r: stop
[21:35] <sskalnik> trollax0r, not cool
[21:35] <trollax0r> ?? just giving advise
[21:35] <callum> when im in the terminal. i need to put sudo in front of my commands. it ask for my password, but when it does i cant type anything. why is that?
[21:35] <trollax0r> that's how i roll
[21:35] <trollax0r> on irc
[21:35] <trollax0r> on this mircd
[21:36] <sskalnik> callum, you won'r see that password, but it is accepting the characters you type
[21:36] <callum> oh ok thanks.
[21:36] <sskalnik> callum, It's a security measure so that someone can't look over your shoulder and see how long the password is
[21:36] <alessioalex> ronaldo
[21:36] <sskalnik> callum, np
[21:37] <Jonii> first it usually just freezes the keyboard until i press some control sequence like alt-tab, but after 2-4 of those, i cant no longer change the focus of window system
[21:37] <sskalnik> Jonii, what happens up to that point?
[21:37] <sskalnik> Jonii, when is it freezing?
[21:37] <Myrtti> trollax0r: please be helpful when helping, if you don't have anything sensible to say, be quiet or leave.
[21:38] <KettleCooked> Is there any way to reboot your computer but keep the current 'uptime'? I've gone so long, don't want to reset it..
[21:38] <Jonii> ctrl-alt-f1 + ctrl-alt-f7 usually helps once or twice, but after that, theres nothing and i have to restart
[21:38] <sskalnik> KettleCooked, why are you rebooting?
[21:38] <pp7> LOL
[21:38] <pangolin> KettleCooked: no
[21:38] <trollax0r> Myrtti:  how is telling him to try another client not helpful. His question was about his irc session being unreliable.
[21:38] <pp7> KettleCooked: keeping uptime just for showing off? :P
[21:38] <KettleCooked> sskalnik: I have to install a PCI audio card
[21:38] <sskalnik> trollax0r, the advice you gave was very bad
[21:38] <callum> and one more thing. i have some music on my external memoery card. i import it into banshee and when i click on a song it wont play. the music plays perfectly fine in audacious. why is this happening?
[21:39] <sskalnik> KettleCooked, In that case, there's probably no good method for messing with the uptime
[21:39] <Jonii> sskalnik: im just typing stuff, then suddenly all the control goes away
[21:39] <KettleCooked> :) I'm just pulling your legs guys.. my treat. But I have a small server in a corner at home here which has been up for 69 days and I have to shut it down, and the thought crossed my mind
[21:39] <sskalnik> KettleCooked, :P
[21:39] <usacomputertec> does anyone know the minimum system req for Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit ?
[21:39] <KettleCooked> the mere thought felt stupid, but good stupid, perfect for irc chat
[21:40] <sskalnik> KettleCooked, If it's a server and needs reboot for kernel updates, you could check out ksplice
[21:40] <pp7> KettleCooked: lol
[21:40] <usacomputertec> 32 bit needs 384
[21:40] <KettleCooked> 22:34:43 up 69 days,  5:39,  1 user,  load average: 0.08, 0.02, 0.01
[21:40] <trollax0r> sskalnik:  mirc is very stable and msl is a more versatile scripting platform
[21:40] <pp7> KettleCooked: why do u have to shut it down?
[21:40] <sskalnik> KettleCooked, I understand; I get ticked when my uptime gets reset
[21:40] <pp7> sskalnik: me too, makes me feel like my system is not stable :P
[21:40] <KettleCooked> pp7: I'm putting a new audio card into it, gonna play with ffmpeg and have it record/process guitar soudn on demand via web browser
[21:41] <Myrtti> trollax0r: there are linux native clients to suggest, no need to suggest something that requires and extra layer just to get stuff working.
[21:41] <usacomputertec> does anyone even know?
[21:41] <Myrtti> trollax0r: moving on.
[21:41] <Jonii> alt-tab might help, but occasionally it fails to give that window switcher. at that point, i usually find that theres no way to minimize the window or to bring another window to top
[21:41] <sskalnik> trollax0r, please troll elsewhere. See what Myrtti said.
[21:41] <callum> and one more thing. i have some music on my external memoery card. i import it into banshee and when i click on a song it wont play. the music plays perfectly fine in audacious. why is this happening?
[21:41] <trollax0r> Myrtti:  But, how is that not sound advice? When installing wlan drivers, you end up emulating ndis and using windows drivers
[21:41] <trollax0r> how is this any different?
[21:42] <trollax0r> just a different part of the osi stack
[21:42] <Myrtti> trollax0r: because there's no need to suggest mirc as the first option when there is other linux native applications available. with wlan cards that have nothing else than ndis available, there is no choice.
[21:42] <Myrtti> trollax0r: now, seriously, moving on.
[21:42] <Jonii> but then usually switching to another virtual terminal helps to resolve the problems window system is having
[21:43] <sskalnik> Jonii, so the loss of control is seemingly random?
[21:43] <Jonii> unless it doesnt, and at that point nothing i know helps
[21:43] <Jonii> sskalnik: always when im typing, i think
[21:44] <sskalnik> Jonii, tried other keyboards or keymaps? Might sound crazy, but I have to wonder if something is being pressed that triggers the issue
[21:44] <Jonii> i am unsure if these different ways of freezing are related
[21:44] <Jonii> sskalnik: this is a netbook
[21:45] <badboy_> algun español para ayudarme
[21:45] <sskalnik> Jonii, does the mouse freeze too?
[21:45] <guntbert> !es | badboy_
[21:45] <trollax0r> !ru | guntbert
[21:45] <SireRickOfJames> Hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu on an older HP Notebook and the touchpad sometimes is unresponsive – I can not move the cursor. Is this a known issue – is there a fix/workaraound available? Thx in advance
[21:45] <Jonii> i use us international dvorak
[21:46] <Jonii> sskalnik: nope, it just doesnt interact anymore
[21:46] <sskalnik> <3 pangolin
[21:46] <sskalnik> Jonii, so mouse freezes too?
[21:48] <KettleCooked> dvorak sounds so evil
[21:48] <Jonii> sskalnik: it moves, but i think clicking doesnt work then... though i gotta admit, i cant remember for sure how much i've tried to play with mouse during those minifreezes
[21:49] <gizmou> hi
[21:49] <guntbert> Jonii: did you try to ping the box in that state? ssh into it?
[21:50] <Jonii> with that ultimate crash, mouse has this far worked perfectly, its just that windows can no longer be moved, resized or anything, graphical weirdness appears and the interface starts looking seriously broken
[21:51] <Jonii> but input system works still just fine, I can even chat here
[21:52] <sskalnik> Jonii, sorry I can't think of what exactly would cause those issues.
[21:52] <econdudeawesome> Howdy all. Besides MOCP (which seems to fail with each Ubuntu update), what is a good CLI music player?
[21:52] <Jonii> menus tend to disappear right away after hovering mouse over them though
[21:52] <kenneth__> i try to see video in youtube but the video go fast and i can not hear the song
[21:52] <sskalnik> Jonii, though from what you're saying, it sounds like a potential issue with the desktop
[21:53] <Jonii> like, those that open after pressing right mouse button
[21:53] <guntbert> Jonii: so look at htop - does it show anything weird?
[21:53] <sskalnik> Jonii, are you using Unity or something else?
[21:54] <sskalnik> Jonii, and do these issues crop up in  multiple desktop environments?
[21:54] <Jonii> unity yes, 11.10 pretty much right out of box
[21:54] <sskalnik> Jonii, new setup? Checked installer and HDD for defects?
[21:54] <Jonii> guntbert: install htop?
[21:55] <kenneth__> the sound on ubuntu 11.10 does not work
[21:55] <guntbert> Jonii: it won't help, it is just a means for diagnosis, like top but easier to handle
[21:56] <Jonii> didnt check the installer
[21:57] <Jonii> hdd worked well when I used windows
[22:00] <kenneth__> can some one help me....i was listening to music on youtube and then the sound stop and the video was going so fast i do not  know what to do..
[22:03] <office3> someone somehow renamed the office folder to excel in the applications menu. How do I fix?
[22:03] <office3> nevermind, figured it out
[22:05] <area51pilot1> how do  remove an indicator applet from the panel?  The normal right click remove is not an option.  It is the "Weather Indicator 11.05.31 'Cloudy 8'
[22:05] <Hilarie> anyone know of a workaround for this.. to run openvpn, you must sudo it, but whilest its running, you can't do anything else with sudo....
[22:07] <macPawns> hey there
[22:07] <macPawns> i just installed 11.04 i386 on my hp dm4 and the touchpad isn't recognized
[22:09] <macPawns> what am i to do when the touchpad doesn't show up under xinput list
[22:09] <Guest60683> I have setup ubuntu to login on startup still it only show the startup screen and does not log me in
[22:10] <Connor1> How does one restart X in Ubuntu if they don't use Gnome or KDE so they can't do ctrl alt backspace?
[22:14] <macbuntu_> hey
[22:15] <macbuntu_> got disconnect
[22:15] <macbuntu_> anyone have any experience with touchpads not working
[22:15] <urlin2u> Connor1, you may want to be specific as to what you actually have for example any desktop info and what is the version your running the release, your question needs this info to be answered reallyt.
[22:15] <Jordan_U> Connor1: Normally you log out of whatever DE you're running. If you want to forcefully kill X you can use alt+sysrk+K.

[22:18] <Kuwanger> Does there exist a good block-based backup system for Ubuntu?  I know btrfs and zfs support deduplication, which would sort of do the trick, but neither of them seem stable enough to rely upon for backups. :/
[22:19] <Locus_Asaf> I'm trying to install ttf-mscorefonts but I'm getting an error that the package is not found, where do I get the package?
[22:19] <notlistening> guntbert, well the eject command works but give nothing else

[22:27] <MonkeyDust> Locus_Asaf  add it to your sources
[22:27] <Locus_Asaf> what is the source?
[22:27] <MonkeyDust> and then apt-get update

[22:32] <Jordan_U> Locus_Asaf: You don't need to modify any sources. You just had the package name wrong.
[22:33] <qin> Ups, I think I have something wrong.
[22:33] <Locus_Asaf> Jordan: I got an error when I tried that package as well
[22:33] <Locus_Asaf> Package ttf-mscorefonts-installer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[22:33] <Locus_Asaf> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[22:33] <Locus_Asaf> is only available from another source
[22:33] <Locus_Asaf> woops sorry for the spam
[22:33] <FloodBot1> Locus_Asaf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:34] <OerHeks> synaptic is optional, not standard installed in 11.10 > sudo apt-get install synaptic

[23:00] <ulrichard_> Is there a standard way to migrate packages from debian testing to a ppa for ubuntu? I downloaded the files from http://packages.debian.org/testing/main/skeinforge  and tried running dpke-buildpackage -S  But that gave me: dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no orig.tar file found
[23:05] <Athostle> Hi.
[23:05] <Athostle> I'm having some WiFi issues,
[23:05] <Athostle> I have a Belkin router (tell me if you need the brand #),
[23:05] <trism> ulrichard_: you need the three files in the Download Source Package section, or if you install ubuntu-dev-tools you can use: pull-debian-source skeinforge
[23:05] <Athostle> and Ubuntu seems to be constantly connecting and disconnecting to my network
[23:06] <Athostle> It might have to do with the fact I had to mess with my WiFi settings because my wireless card was blacklisted.
[23:06] <Nach0z> Athostle: try /etc/init.d/nm-manager restart. may or may not fix the issue...
[23:07] <Athostle> Thanks.
[23:08] <Nach0z> yeah. see if it actually fixes that though. That was my solution for my college's crappy internet, dunno if it'll work for you long-run though.
[23:09] <f0x> but it only has read only and root shell without networkinng
[23:09] <f0x> how do i boot in recovery mode to a root shell with networking and rw support
[23:09] <arpd> f0x: can you not ifup eth0 / wlan0?
[23:10] <f0x> nop
[23:10] <fishcooker> remount it
[23:10] <f0x> got some error
[23:10] <f0x> arpd and the fs is mounted read only
[23:11] <ulrichard_> trism: I downloaded the tree files, unpacked the one containing the debian folder and added a new entry to debian/changelog to add oneiric as target.
[23:14] <trism> ulrichard_: did you unpack the source with: dpkg-source -x skeinforge*.dsc; ?
[23:15] <jschall> How do I display the upcoming slide on my laptop's display in libreoffice impress?
[23:15] <AlanBell> jschall: you need the presenter console
[23:16] <AlanBell> libreoffice-presenter-console is the package name
[23:17] <jschall> AlanBell: yeah i clicked extensions and then clicked get extensions on the web and then searched for presenter and it's not available there but i'll try that package
[23:17] <AlanBell> jschall: yeah, the one in the repos works great, it has countdown clock, shows you notes, and thumbnails of current and next slides
[23:18] <gerard007> hi allemaal
[23:18] <AlanBell> might just be a clock rather than a countdown, can't remember exactly
[23:19] <jschall> AlanBell: wow it's really awesome
[23:19] <jschall> AlanBell: how do i edit the notes for slides?
[23:20] <Si2100> Hey

[23:21] <lauratika> hi, cant change owner ship "Input/Oput error". im using sudo chown -R user:user /home/myusername. what can be wrong?
[23:22] <AlanBell> lauratika: something wrong with the disk? read only perhaps?
[23:23] <AlanBell> lauratika: does it work without the -R? (i.e. just doing the top level directory) if it does then it might be recursing into a gvfs remote mount or something like that if user is logged on
[23:23] <lauratika> no my problem is that i cant connect to any radio stations or software centre or ubuntu server... only if im root this works but no prob conecting with my account to internet

[23:24] <djskidd> Isn't it illegal to robo-dial cellphones?
[23:25] <djskidd> Oops. Sorry guys, normally this autoconnects to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[23:25] <atdiehm_lappy> so, I have 11.10 with a 3.2 kernel, should I ask my question in here, or +1 ...
[23:25] <misaq> help
[23:25] <pp7> just ask!
[23:25] <lauratika> alanbell: without -R  brings me bacl mekabox@lauratika but still cant connect to radio stations or download any appliocation from the software center
[23:26] <Tibuktian> hey
[23:26] <Tibuktian> how can i check what my gpu is?
[23:26] <misaq> pp7: sorry. I am just in need for sleep. I am dying
[23:26] <Tibuktian> version and vendor
[23:26] <AlanBell> lauratika: ok, so it is something in your user directory it can't read/write to, or change ownership of probably a remote mount
[23:26] <pp7> lspci
[23:26] <Jordan_U> Tibuktian: lspci | grep VGA
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> Tibuktian: sudo lshw -C display
[23:27] <atdiehm_lappy> well I upgraded to kernel 3.2 because I was instructed in forums to upgrade to 3.2 to get support for my touchpad, however, now the right click button won't register, and the left click doesn't work with dragging ... and I don't know where to go to try and debug this
[23:27] <AlanBell> lauratika: maybe try from a terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) when logged out from the GUI
[23:27] <ActionParsnip> atdiehm_lappy: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc
[23:27] <AlanBell> lauratika: any reason why you think it is a permissions/ownership problem?
[23:27] <atdiehm_lappy> oneiric ?
[23:28] <atdiehm_lappy> ActionParsnip, ^
[23:28] <atdiehm_lappy> I said I was on 11.10 earlier I thought
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> atdiehm_lappy: you are using a 3rd party kernel, which isn't supported here
[23:28] <atdiehm_lappy> that's why I asked if I should ask in +1 :-p
[23:28]  * atdiehm_lappy joins #ubuntu+1
[23:28] <atdiehm_lappy> dammit sorry
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> atdiehm_lappy: could try, but I doubt it
[23:30] <wizonesolutions> I'm mounting a Windows partition using NTFS-3G, and it seems like no matter which options I specify, I can't get read/write access to the files.
[23:31] <lauratika> alanbell: because if im root and launch banshee or terminal it can connect to internet radio or ubuntu server
[23:31] <wizonesolutions> I don't think I'm using advanced and I haven't created a UserMapping file or anything. And other NTFS mounts (both partitions and external drives) are working fine.
[23:32] <ActionParsnip> wizonesolutions: if its an internl partition, you can add a lin in /etc/fstab to mount it at boot with decent access methods as you need
[23:33] <melki> Hi everyone, How do i setup a hotspot on ubuntu?
[23:34] <wizonesolutions> ActionParsnip: Yes, I did that, but I still can't seem to get it to mount with permissions that allow writing.
[23:35] <ActionParsnip> wizonesolutions: what line did you add?
[23:35] <agentgasmask> Hi all. Looking to build a server with a SuperMicro x8dali motherboard. I'm deciding to use the onboard motherboard raid array, or build it in software with mdadm. Are there monitoring tools for supermicro raid controlers (onboard)?
[23:36] <pp7> you're better off with hardware RAID
[23:38] <macPawns> can someone help me
[23:38] <macPawns> my touchpad isn't being recognized on livecd
[23:38] <ActionParsnip> macPawns: what make and model system?
[23:39] <mrdeb> hi
[23:39] <netninja> I had ubuntu (11.10) working great on my laptop, then I upgraded to 8gb of ram.  Now when I hibernate, it shuts down (or at least, when I turn the machine back on, it fresh-boots), and when I suspend, the video driver doesn't reinitialize when I turn the machine back on.  Thoughts?
[23:39] <macPawns> hp dm4-2181
[23:40] <ActionParsnip> netninja: is the ram healthy?
[23:40] <macPawns> it worked before
[23:40] <macPawns> then it stopped to
[23:40] <netninja> ActionParsnip: I see no reason to think not; brand new, laptop is running fine, ram diagnostics come up clean, Windows partition has no issues.
[23:40] <macPawns> day*
[23:41] <netninja> ActionParsnip: I'm new to desktop implementations of linux; been running server for a while (CentOS) -- should I use the ram test option at the grub loader?  I'm assuming that's what it's for?
[23:41] <melki> Hi everyone, How do i setup a hotspot on ubuntu 11.10 with gnome 3? the networkmanager keeps on self disconnecting after around 5 seconds (sometimes less).
[23:42] <netninja> ActionParsnip or Others: would the suspend problem with the video driver not initializing be a symptom of faulty ram?
[23:43] <wizonesolutions> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/DsLmye9a
[23:43] <pp7> netninja: remove the other old ram stick and find out
[23:44] <netninja> pp7: improper assumption; I had a 2-gig stick, now I have two 4-gig sticks.
[23:44] <pp7> netninja: i c
[23:44] <pp7> netninja: well remove one stick at a time to see if its a RAM problem
[23:44] <ActionParsnip> netninja: new doesn't mean it's automatically good
[23:44] <netninja> pp7: I appreciate the thought though
[23:44] <netninja> ActionParsnip: that's true.  So, should I do as I asked?
[23:45] <tjkent> I am having some trouble opening up synaptic, when I try to open it from terminal it says out of range
[23:45] <ActionParsnip> netninja: are you running centos now?
[23:46] <netninja> ActionParsnip: uuh, on other servers, yes, but not on the machine in question.
[23:46] <ActionParsnip> netninja: ok, hold shift at boot and select memtest86  and test the ram
[23:46] <kanhiya> Hello
[23:46] <kanhiya> everyone
[23:46] <ActionParsnip> melki: try disabling ipv6, can help
[23:46] <netninja> do I need to hold the shift key?
[23:47] <netninja> it's an option in grub that always comes up
[23:47] <kanhiya> I noticed one thing In uBUNTU that is Ubuntu provides less battery backup than Windows
[23:47] <ActionParsnip> macPawns: is there a shortcut to enable / disable the touchpad?
[23:47] <agentgasmask> pp7: I'm sure I am, but are there any monitoring tools for ubuntu that are compatable with supermicro?
[23:47] <kanhiya> i am using only firefox and pidgin in both cases
[23:47] <ActionParsnip> netninja: yes before grub loads or shows
[23:48] <pp7> agentgasmask: no idea
[23:48] <netninja> ok I did, but it loaded the same menu, and it's in the menu also
[23:48] <tjkent> does anyone know how I can fix synaptic so that it isn't our of range it says vector::_M_range_check
[23:48] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: probably some proprietary acpi crap. Are there any bugs reported?
[23:48] <ActionParsnip> tjkent: does software centre work ok?
[23:48] <klj613> how can i make any files uploaded by a specific user automatically have ownership theuser:www-data ?
[23:48] <tjkent> yea
[23:48] <kanhiya> i also tried cpu frequency scaling  and minimum brightness
[23:49] <gua> i know it's totally not recommended, but in a no-win scenario, would it be better to install the virtualbox deb for debian lenny or for ubuntu 8.04 on ubuntu 9.10?
[23:49] <tjkent> ActionParsnip: yes it does
[23:49] <agentgasmask> Does anyone know wether there are raid monitoring tools for SuperMicro motherboards under linux?
[23:49] <kanhiya> ActionParsnip: How do solve that problem
[23:49] <wizonesolutions> ActionParsnip: Was wondering if you'd have a chance to take a look at the link...if not it's OK, just lmk
[23:50] <ActionParsnip> gua: there is an ubuntu repo if you want closed source virtualbox
[23:50] <kanhiya> ActionParsnip: I noticed that CPU usage is high in case of Ubuntu while in Windows it is only 1-2 %
[23:50] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: see if there are bugs reported
[23:50] <pp7> kanhiya: when doing nothing?
[23:50] <ActionParsnip> agentgasmask: Have you contacted supermicro?
[23:50] <gua> ActionParsnip: but not with the latest release for 9.10
[23:50] <pp7> kanhiya: what's using the CPU?
[23:50] <ActionParsnip> macPawns: try running: synclient AreaBottomEdge=3500
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> gua: Karmic is dead and offtopic here
[23:51] <ztag100> hey people, I'm new to Ubuntu
[23:51] <kanhiya> pp7: Gnome system monitor and compiz , etc
[23:51] <pp7> kanhiya: what is compiz using?
[23:51] <pp7> kanhiya: try disabling some effects and see what happens
[23:52] <lauratika> alanbell: sorry got disconected and still cant change ownership of home directory even with ctrl +alt F1
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: or try unity2D session
