Pr0pe110rHeadCan someone assist with undeleting (preferably) or reinstalling some missing system directories and who knows what else... am I better off running extundelete or just imaging the drive and reinstalling the OS to the copy?00:22
sokakPr0pe110rHead, doing from scratch will lead surely to less pain00:23
skegeektify 89chevygeek1100:23
b0efI have a 10.04 system and shouldn't pressing ESC on boot bring me to the grub menu?. Do I actually have to change grub boot files to enable this?00:24
MahaVishnub0ef$ thought it was shift then press e to edit the line you want to boot00:24
b0efMahaVishnu: ?, I should hold down shift while booting to bring up the grub menu?00:24
Pr0pe110rHeadsokak: after I image the drive can you help me reinstall the OS to the copy?00:25
MahaVishnuI think so.00:25
skegeekWhen I boot-up the GRUB screen displays too far to the left, but splash and desktop are aligned correctly. Where should I begin for fixing this?00:25
sokakPr0pe110rHead, i meant it as its better to reinstall from scratch rather than scavenging inbetween image files and undeleting. Will be less work, straighter, faster.00:26
Pr0pe110rHeadsokak: only trouble is, will  it retain the users, home directories, etc?00:26
Pr0pe110rHeaddoes extundelete work if you haven't used the system since files were lost?00:27
sokakPr0pe110rHead, of course not if you havent put the home folder in a separate partition. Its the best choice by design.00:27
b0efMahaVishnu: you're right;)00:28
b0efMahaVishnu: thanks..00:28

jimisrvrox2hey guys quick question is there any way that I can add space to my partition when I have free space but its not contiguous? IE: ntfs partition, free space, linux, linux, linux partitions..any way to add it?00:29
sokakPr0pe110rHead, the first time i messed like that, i backed up the home folders, reinstalled from scratch, making a separate home drive (you may as well just use a partition) then i just recreated users in theiur order, and put back home folders from a live boot.00:30
MahaVishnujimisrvrox2$ idk. but you could resize the partition with the freespace then move the freespace to the linux partition by resizing it. but you need live-cd and if anything goes wrong during this you will lose data.00:30
user82jimisrvrox2, not sure about what you want. but in worst case you can still create a partition that mounts somewhere into your existing filesystem00:30
sokakjimisrvrox2, i wouldnt mess too much wit non contiguous partitios :3 Considered moving to a new and better partitioned drive?00:30
Pr0pe110rHeadsokak: I think the home folders are on another drive.  However, I did not setup this box nor was I responsible for the loss of files.  I'm just the janitor, as it were.00:31

OctopusWhen Xubuntu will run as fast as Lubuntu?00:32
sokakPr0pe110rHead, i see your point. Well, reinstalling from scratch and, during the setup, picking the manual partitioning and replugging the home drive where it belongs, should do the trick (ofc, users have to be recreated as well) the only thing thats odd is, what caused important system folders to be mutilated?00:32

OctopusWhy this chat, if I can not get answers to simple questions?00:34
MattheasOctopus: Your question is pretty broad.00:34
sokakPr0pe110rHead, honestly i never tried single files restores, until now, i always worked just with testdisk (and i love it - right now im backupping 4 tb of stuff i recovered with it) I have no idea then how to proceed in your case00:34

sokakOctopus, the answer is, when you will stop making broad questions, and focus on finding tutorials on how to optimize it.00:35
MahaVishnurstreeter$ try sudo rfkill list00:35
Pr0pe110rHeadsokak:  I've used testdisk, but I don't think it will undelete to the ext3 partition, I think it undeletes to another drive, right?  So, I guess I can complete the image I just started and undelete from the afflicted drive to the copy.  Or, I was thinking extundelete or somesuch.00:36
MattheasOctopus: If you say so00:36
OctopusMattheas,I think, Canonical should cease to fund Xubuntu and invest in Lubuntu.00:36

Octopus!00:38
sokakPr0pe110rHead, this is the point, i've newer worked in such ways - i always recovered user files, not system files. Btw, i think any undelete application will work from one damaged filesystem to another - undelete in the same place wont work by design00:38

OctopusI currently use and have used both before distribution.00:40
sokakTheDuck, a can of compressed air, machine oil, or a brand new fan will fix it.00:40
cab938_homeTheDuck, when using oil, you want to remove the sticker that covers the bearing, usually in the middle of the fan00:40
cab938_homeand add a drop of oil there00:40
cab938_homereplacing the fan is usually the best long term solution00:41
sokakcab938_home, thank you for the fix ;)00:41
cab938_homesokak, Just thought oil everywhere might not be as intended :)00:41
TheDuckSokak There's a problem with all three. I've done the compressed air, I don't know where I would buy machine oil or how to apply it to the bearings, and I can't afford to buy a new fan. I also can't find out how to open the damn thing. I've taken every screw out and the components that aren't fixed to the board.00:41

modyATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver01:07
TheLegacei had just used the generated one01:07
pingvenoScrew it. I'm making my own package.01:07
user82 what is the problem with the open-source drivers mody?01:07
modyit doesnt work01:08
pingvenoI've spent way too long ******* with this package.01:08
modythe 3d is working properly01:08
user82is not working properly?01:08
modybecause that driver isn't working on the laptop01:08
modyYes01:08
modysometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt01:08
modythen I have to install it again01:09
TheLegacemilamber, ya it looked like my sources.list was fucked up, but i dont know why i generate it all the time from the site01:09
user82thats crappy...i am also frustrated by ATI's drivers.01:09
modycause it shows as not active driver01:09
user82i use the opensoruce ones01:09
TheLegacethere we go i got it01:09
modyany alternative driver?01:09
TheLegacemeeh i dont need anythign restricted anyway01:09
TheLegaceso ill just leave it01:09
user82you can still get the newest ATI driver on their website and test if that works: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx01:09
sokaksilly question - do you have DKMS installed as well?01:10
user82download the .run file make it executable and start it. if it does not work /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh01:10
milamberTheLegace: you getting the package now?01:10
TheLegacemilamber, ya no worries ill try and regenerate the list again01:10
TheLegacei might have added some extra things01:11
TheLegacethat shouldnt need to be ther01:11
modywhat is DKMS01:11
milamberTheLegace: you shouldn't have to "regenerate"01:11
user82mody DKMS is the kernel module that is loaded. but it is usualy installed together with the drivers so no special worries about that01:11
user82i would try the newest ati driver...or google about your computer model and ubuntu01:12
sokaki agree with user8201:15
sokakmaybe trying to purge the actual drivers and restart them from scratch?01:16
modyhow do I know if I have 32 bit or 6401:16
mody?01:16
sokakmody, uname-a01:16

MahaVishnuwip$ does your router have address reservation w/ dhcp? like you can set a mac address to always be the same IP. that usually works.02:20

horse1bunoh sorry I thought the two were related somehow02:36
sokaksomsip, stellarium is just a different point of view of Celestia ;)02:36
somsipsokak: as soon as you mentioned celestia I realised that was the one I meant to recomment :)02:36
sokaki agree horse1bun its just that we should keep ubuntu issue related somehow, but im not the channel op, so please feel free to ignore me ;302:37
horse1bunso ubuntu has nothing to do with celestia, i thought ubuntu made it02:37
horse1bunI'm just one of those leechers here for the free software02:38
evildaemonCan someone explain open-source to horse1bun?02:38
somsiphorse1bun: celestia is written by a group of people and they make it freely available. ubuntu makes a package of their software available for users of ubuntu02:38
horse1bunyea that's kind of what I thought02:39
horse1bunI just didn't want to sound stupid02:39
sokakhey hey - lets not fight about that - at the very end we are here to enjoy and help right? My apologies horse1bun if i stinged a nerve02:39
horse1bunno it's okay I was just a bit confused02:40

evildaemonThe card is a broadcom corporation BCM432102:40
evildaemonYeah I know, broadcom.02:41
evildaemonIt's worked in previous versions, and I tried a linksys. So thats not the problem./02:41

evildaemonTHE PROBLEM ISN'T BROADCOM! (And that thread isn't my issue.)02:46
horse1bunwhilst trying to sort that out, I found out broadcom released an open source driver02:46
evildaemonIt worked in 10.1002:46
sokaki always fixed it quick and dirty with ralink adapters (branded d-link)02:46
horse1bunor rather a proprietary supported02:46
evildaemonand on top of that.02:47
evildaemonThe card detects networks, is recognized as a device, and broadcasts.02:47
evildaemonIt just won't connect to other networks.02:47

nac4lI'm trying to setup a mail exchange server (i guess).  I have a dyndns/free domain for my apache2 server right now (only service i'm familiar with).  I just want to be able to setup a mx mail service so I can have a new email system on my machine/server.  Which one should I use, I'm thinking pop3, but there's many options, what is the best???02:55
travisHAZEpop3 leaves it on the server02:56
travisHAZEAnd you download a copy02:56
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: that's up to the pop3 client.02:56
FrozenpacketDoes anyone know of a good Client Server for host domain email accounts?02:56
travisHAZEPop3 leaves a copy on the server02:56
sokakl1nuxman, read here http://en.kioskea.net/faq/809-debian-apt-get-no-pubkey-gpg-error02:56
travisHAZEIts the IMTP or w/e it is that erases it02:56
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: the client can delete it.02:56
nac4lso do you guys know anything about setting it up?  Do I need to use evolution, or are there terminal based servers/ui thingy's that are better.02:56
nac4lit's just mail..02:56
travisHAZENo, its Email02:57
travisHAZEnot just mail02:57
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: http://www.korokithakis.net/tutorials/email/02:57
FrozenpacketDoes anyone know of a good server client i could download for hosting Domain adressed emails?02:58
nac4lah so mail is local network and email is remote...  didn't know they had to differentiate, that's lame, you can't combine the service into one solution/02:58
Frozenpacketemail accounts*02:58
nac4lI tried setting up my router dyn service and the DynDNS account (which is mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org) to mail.mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org02:59
travisHAZEswede, thats not an auto delete02:59
travisHAZEThats a manual thing02:59
SwedeMikenac4l: email can be delivered to a A pointer as well, so just use mcurran-exploit.dyndns.org.02:59
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: neither IMAP nor POP3 has auto delete. it's always an action by the client.03:00
travisHAZEThen an IMAP client is programmed to automatically delete said email once it receives them03:00
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: some might be, but that's not the standard.03:01
travisHAZEOutlook, evolution, thunderbird all do it automatically for IMAP03:01
travisHAZEonly email clients I've used03:01
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol "E-mail clients using IMAP generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. This and other characteristics of IMAP operation allow multiple clients to manage the same mailbox."03:02

zombastiqsystem cannot see my usb hard drive dock... is there potential for a solution?03:03
travisHAZEPOP3 has always left the mail on the server while IMAP always deleted it03:03
travisHAZE(For me at least)03:03
SwedeMiketravisHAZE: well, that might be your experience with the defaults in your specific clients you've tried, but there is nothing general by those protocols that says this is always the case.03:04

litropyHi, peeps. I had an HDTV hooked up to my comp, and I custom configured it to only display on the HDTV. Well, the HDTV is gone, and now when I boot my ubuntu partition, it's pretty much unmanagable because the dimensions are all out of whack. I can, however, get to a command prompt, and I'm looking for the command(s) to set things back to default. Thank you very much in advance.04:41

winderek: some people have 100 tabs and it's slow, some have a few and it's not much of a difference04:43
LinuxnutPuppy boots in less than a minute, even in old PCs, and it does not require antivirus software. Administering Puppy is quick and minimal. With Puppy, you just have to take care of your data, which you can easily save to USB flash (Then forget about your operating system!). Your data can be read by other computers.04:43
winderek: why not just try it since other things add up to the experience too, like speed of the hard disk. you could always turn the already installed ubuntu into xubuntu with a few lines04:44

ereknewmember: hmm04:44
LinuxnutYou don't have to save data to hard drive to work with Puppy. You can save data to USB flash or even to Internet storage (like www.drop.io ). When installed to USB flash, Puppy consumes only a little over 100 MB, or about 256 MB with OpenOffice. You can use the same USB flash (where Puppy is installed) for saving data.04:45

yamahaalex37this is a hybrid laptop, with discrete switchable graphics07:05
RokcStarhow can you tell07:05
yamahaalex37i can tell, ive used it for years07:05
yamahaalex37its significally shorter07:05
yamahaalex37maybe the graphics are stuck on discrete?07:05

yamahaalex37i see07:06
dr_willishopefully by the next release it will be much better07:06

dr_willisi never see the splits. ;)07:20
treskSomething went wrong. I inserted a new script file in /etc/init.d/ and update-init.d it, but it doesn'twork .(07:20
dr_willisnicehs:  why not just use ufw?07:21
treskI wanted to change the MAC of my net devices. Is it probably the wrong place to do it? I also tried /etc/network/if-pre-up.d and inserted a new script there. No success. or do I have to commit changes in that folder somehow?07:23
aruncetresk: did you restart the network07:24
arunce?07:24
yamahaalex37is the unity quicklaunch thing on the left side even made for customizing?07:24
treskarunce: yes. I reastarted the hole PC ,)07:25
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  theres some tweaks and tools for it. omg!ubuntu! blog site mentioned a new one today07:25
dr_williscalled myUnity i think07:26
peggys_mousei no longer seem to have access to many settings. is a common recent problem?07:26
aruncetresk: and you chmod +x?07:26
treskmmm, I also changed /etc/interfaces... :(07:26
treskarunce: yes, I did it was green in mc07:26
tresksame chown and chmod like the other scripts07:26
dr_willispeggys_mouse:  things have been getting reordered.. so it depends on what settings you mean07:27
almoxarifeyamahaalex37: you seem to want the 2d experience/style menus07:27
yamahaalex37almoxarife, , i just want something customizable07:27
peggys_mousedr_willis: it isn't that the settings are missing, they are greyed out. locked.07:27
yamahaalex37like with my own shortcuts07:27
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  shortcuts for what?07:27
yamahaalex37i deleted all the useless shortcuts in the left tasbar almoxarife07:27
yamahaalex37programs i use07:27
yamahaalex37and adding them to that taskbar does not seem trivial07:28
dr_willisyou can make your own launchers, and pin them to the panel07:28
almoxarifeyamahaalex37: in that case, install cairo-dock, install gnome-shell, install various progs from kde4 and figure it out07:28
dr_willisi just drag/drop or pin them..07:28
peggys_mousedr_willis: for instance, if i go to user account settings, the unlock button is now greyed out. i can't edit a user's info.07:28
yamahaalex37i cant drag anything into that taskbar07:28
aruncetresk: and your script is ok? you have the shebang?07:28
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  sounds like some bug. check out some of the unity ussage videos perhaps.07:29
yamahaalex37dr_willis, , you can drag stuff into that panel on the far left?07:29
yamahaalex37the one that hides?07:29
aruncetresk: will it work if you call it?07:29
yamahaalex37im trying to drag AptanaStudio3 over there... not working07:29
dr_willisi launch gedit,  for examlple, and right click, pin the icon to panel07:29
treskarunce: #!/bin/sh .... /usr/bin/macchanger -e eth007:29
yamahaalex37and when I put it on my desktop, it doesnt seem to be a shortcut07:29
almoxarifeyamahaalex37: no dragging?07:29
treskarunce: yes it does07:30
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  it may be that ap has no .desktop file07:30
dr_willisthe term shortcut is a little.. well windowish. ;)07:30
treskarunce: a bit strange, but maybe Ubuntu resets the MAC later on ?!07:30
dr_willismake a .desktop launcher file for it. and it should work07:30
yamahaalex37uhhhh... theres no point in avoiding a term nvm07:30
yamahaalex37i can drag it to the desktop07:31
dr_willissince that aptana is not installed by the repos. it may be lacking the .desktop file the panel wants07:31
yamahaalex37but then it says missing libraries07:31
nicehsdr_willis: oh, didnt know about ufw.. thx, will check it out and prolly try that next time instead of apf then07:31
yamahaalex37i dont see any option to pin anywhere either07:31
treskarunce: I put it at @S15_ .. should be ok, I guess.07:31
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  it wanst to run from its own directory.07:31
aruncetresk: try on if-up.d07:31
yamahaalex37dr_willis, where should i see that pin option you said07:31
dr_willisyamahaalex37:  try pinning and stuff with gedit to see if it works07:32
treskarunce: but I can't change the IP it the device is up ..07:32
treskarunce: I mean the MAC07:32
arunceno you can't07:32

sokaksince it may happen multiple instances of what i wanted to kill, i thought of killall07:48

sokakhehe old maverick here :P07:55

sokakyeah auronandace , prolly i just need to try a fresher gwibber, maverick bears with an old one. The ppa for docky fixed many thing, i should give a look for gwibber as well.08:00
Jon--Slightly off topic - When I ssh into a FreeBSD box using PuTTY, I am able to do the following: Hit a character or two, press up arrow, receive only commands beginning with those few characters. Is this a feature of the OS/shell? If not, and it is a feature of PuTTY, how can I get similar functionality in gnome-terminal?08:06

Jon--sokak, That's not quite what I mean. Up arrow deals with history, that is what I want.08:08
Jon--Ex, python lol.py  do 10 more commands  on PuTTY I can do 'py *up arrow*', and as long as python lol.py is still in history, it'll auto-complete that, last executed first08:08
sokakoh nope i guess then, i has standard history08:09
Jon--I don't think it's implemented with history. I have a feeling it's the shell.08:09
Jon--Well, the client, more accurately*08:09
shark_eyeI was try 'dpkg', and very good08:10
sokakJon--, have a look at this http://blog.macromates.com/2008/working-with-history-in-bash/08:11
Jon--sokak, I run tcsh at work, I highly doubt tcsh is more feature-rich than bash. I have a feeling it's implemented by the shell client, in this case putty.08:11
sokaki see your point, just all i was able to google about08:12
sokakwhen i dont know, i try to find08:12
Jon--You'd think gnome-terminal would have something like this08:12
Jon--Ever since getting used to it, it's hard to go back to not having it08:12
Jon--Hell of a lot faster than h | grep08:12
Jon--Or pressing up arrow 20 damn times08:12
Jon--sokak, Thanks for your assistance anyway08:13

MahaVishnuI don't script too much.08:44
Jon--It doesn't require a ton of man-page hunting08:44
theadminJon--: What's the goal anyway? I might do it08:44
sokakI feel you :) Whenever i have a bullseye oneliner, i note it down as a personal pride08:44
sokakmy script fu is really low08:45
MahaVishnutheadmin$ move all folders in one dir with .FLAC files in them onky. to a second dir08:45
DaZMahaVishnu: you have the script already?08:45
Jon--theadmin, He wants to find all sub dirs containing *.flac and move those directories recursively into some other directory08:45
theadminJon--: Hm, interesting...08:45
DaZfind -name "*.c" -exec mkdir -p /home/daz/derp/{} \; -exec mv {} /home/daz/derp/{} \; this did more or less what you want for me08:45
DaZjust obviously replace .d with .flac and directories with what you want.08:45
Jon--DaZ, that's ugly08:46
Jon--I'm making one now, hold on08:46

Jon--I'm nearly done08:49
theadminJon--: If it can read stdin in some way, sure...08:50
Jon--theadmin, Example? I have a list of directories with flac files, want to pass to rsync via a pipe08:51
sokakmv cant do the job?08:51
theadminJon--: Meh, no rsync fan myself and I can't find anything related in the manpage08:52
ArnoldMadkiss, I'm guessing it would be located either in the 'swiss' or 'swiss-account' package.08:53
Jon--MahaVishnu, Here's a start anyway: find . -type f -name '*.flac' |sed 's#\(.*\)/.*#\1#' | sort -ur08:54
Jon--That gives you a list of directories recursively from the current directory which contain .flac files.08:54
Jon--(and sorts them)08:54
MahaVishnuyes it does.08:54
MahaVishnuis it easy to alphabetize that. if not don't worry. and thanks for that code! ill keep it in a safe place.08:55

doritoDanThis Ubuntu installation is just messed up10:24
doritoDanthe update manager doesn't work at all.10:24
RaTTuSdoritoDan - 1) make a backup of all your data , 2) get the 11.04 cd , 3) do a new install , 4) replace your data - it saves a lot of hassles...10:24
doritoDanI'm so SICK of Ubuntu right now. Every time I try to do something really simple I end up spending hours troubleshooting what should inherently work fine!10:25

icerootdoritoDan: why you need the upgrade?10:26
Net-CatI still netcat10:27
doritoDaniceroot: Because I want to try 11. How can you even justify Ubuntu not working properly by questioning why I want to upgrade? I should do the same thing whenever someone complains that Microsoft is too greedy. "Why do you need your money anyway??"10:27
MonkeyDustdoritoDan  a fresh install is often faster and more efficient than an upgrade10:27

ubottuanon420: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system.12:23

MonkeyDustanon420  fresh install is faster and more efficient12:26
aokstumpyeah, under dev/sdc2 there are two entries12:26
funkymonkMonkeyDust: not sure why its blocking it though12:26
aokstumpwell dev/sdc2 is formatted "extended", if that makes sense12:26
aokstumpand then underneath it there is sdc5 and sdc612:27
llutzaokstump: thats an extended partition, which can hold logical drives (sda5+)12:27
aokstumpsdc6 is 8gb of linux-swap which sort of makes sense12:27
anon420MonkeyDust | cheers man. much appreciated12:27
jrib!enter | aokstump12:27
ubottuaokstump: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!12:27
aokstumpbut the big one is dev/sdc5 holding almost 500 gb of unformatted space12:27
jribaokstump: so what do you want to do?12:27
aokstumpI apologize ubottu12:27
aokstumpetiquette learnt12:27
aokstumpI want to be able to use the other 500 gb that seems to be sitting there unformatted to store more shtuff12:28
stivoi have two nic one with internet the other to a small network can someone help me do that12:28
jribaokstump: so format it12:28
aokstumpI just noticed I'm getting close to out of room on dev/sdc112:28
MonkeyDustaokstump  if you're familiar with terminal commands, use fdisk to format12:29
RaTTuSaokstump sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit12:29
jribaokstump: you can use gparted if you want a gui12:29
aokstumpok so I format the individual partition labeled dev/sdc5, and that won't affect the stuff I have on dev/sdc1. I would hate to lose any data12:29
anon420viva la resistance. support anonymous because within the next year they are gonna be the only ones fighting for you. and they're doing it now, too.12:30

Deathbringeri got an extracted tar.gz in what folder should i copy that folder to manually install this?12:30
anon420peace12:30
Si2100Hey12:30
jribaokstump: right, just format sdc5 to ntfs or whatever filesystem you want.  But note that if you don't want to lose the data, you would have backups.  Otherwise, you don't care about the data12:30

mwh_Hi, maybe some here can help me out, my Ubuntu 11.10 hangs during shutdown, like 25 secs, before finally powering off12:40
mwh_this only happens when I shutdown from an x shell, not from the login screen12:40
joepMonkeyDust, No, an internal Hitachi.12:40
almoxarifemwh_: looked at the logs?12:41
mwh_almoxarife, yes12:42
mwh_almoxarife, also no signs of trouble when I look at the output during shutdown12:42
mwh_almoxarife, output is just "will now halt" "power down" and then it just hangs there from 25secs12:43
MonkeyDustmwh_  and if you shutdown from the command line, does it show something suspicious?12:44
luisthow do i enable pageup and pagedown to scroll over last used commands??12:46
mwh_MonkeyDust, havent done that, but I would guess it would be the same as from the GUI?12:46
MonkeyDustmwh_  open a terminal and type shutdown -h now12:46
eSoulpoweroff works as well I do believe?12:47

DemonWitchgenerally links for the executables go to /usr/bin or the executables themselves?12:53

LiNuX`supis anyone familiar with permissions when running ubuntu 11.10 using bootcamp on a mac? Anytime I try to access document or desktop folders for my user on the macintosh HD I get a permission error and not even and option to enter the login info14:11
petersdf_I have linux drivers  for RaLink USB wireless RT2870 on my desktop but dont know where  to put them14:12
skilzHow can I disable graphical boot and login?14:14
BluesKajpetersdf_, usually the executable goes in /usr/bin , but you probly have to extract the driver if it's in .gz  file or some such14:15
skilzI want text boot and login14:15
llutz!nox | skilz14:15
ubottuskilz: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode14:15
e_t_LiNuX`sup: open a terminal, "sudo su" to root, navigate to your Mac files and run "ls -l" to see what the UID is on your Mac files. The default user in Ubuntu has UID 1000, it's probably something different for Mac.14:15
petersdf_thanks I'll try that and yep they are extracted.14:15
skilzllutz, Thats not permanent is it?14:16
LiNuX`supyes I think mac uses 50114:16

e_t_LiNuX`sup: open /etc/passwd in an editor (must be root), find the line for your user, change the 1000's you see to what Mac uses. Be sure that you then chown your home directory to the same or you won't have a lot of fun in Ubuntu.14:19

joesuffcerenI'm using Ubuntu Rescue Remix to attempt to recover an HFS+ partition (ideally) or to do some file carving if I have to. The drive is a 1TB usb(sata) drive, and does not seem to be suffering any physical damage. I can see one small FAT partition (EFI stuff) and a large HFS partition. the HFS partition will mount just fine but doesn't seem to have any data  on it (looks like a MacOS "skeleton" fold15:43
joesuffcerener structure)15:43
ScrivenerChrome also never shows an indication that it has been used (i.e. no little white arrows by it showing that it's in active use).15:43
pufftlu: Also, check out Jason Britain's tomcat packages, they include init scripts and such.  These may have been folded into the ubuntu tomcat packages by now (I think Jason might be the maintainer now).15:43
joesuffcerenI don't know much/anything about MacOS. The drive belongs to my cousin who was working normally and was suddenly unable to read the disk. I did a quick search with testdisk, and it did not find any partitions other than the two I mentioned above. I then did a deeper search (running now), and it's found 50+ HFS partitions as it's searched15:44

BarkingFishllutz: Display blanked in a DM, if you switch out to a TTY, it should still come up, right?17:18
puffmainecoon: Also, I should point out that you're using xfce because you're using xubuntu-desktop, so #xubuntu might be more helpful.17:18

BarkingFishunless you get to a TTY a different way to us :)17:18
_MarcusSo I did "sudo chown -R user:group /directory" and the user can still access files in /var and such17:18
puffmainecoon: lightDM is a display manager (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM).  It's sort of the underpinnings of the GUI.17:19
_MarcusAnd I created the group already17:19
puffmainecoon: So your windowmanager runs on X and X is managed by lightDM.17:19

mainecoonpuff Right17:19
TREllis3017:20
mainecoonpuff But under this very same environment, two terminal clients are behaving differently17:20
puffmainecoon: Because lightDM runs X and the display manager, when you to go login, you're actually talking to lightDM, and then lightDM starts up X and Unity (or in your case, XFCE).17:20
SunTsu_Marcus: you would need to take away rights on /var - but I advise to not to do that, given your level of knowledge you might severely damage your system17:20
llutz_Marcus: you want to chroot ftp-users to a dir17:21
puffmainecoon: Ergo, housekeeping related to your X login is done by lightDM.  Part of that housekeeping is that lightDM is supposed to udpate utmp, but apparently it doesn't.  utmp is where who/w looks to see who's logged in.17:21
_MarcusSunTsu: No, it's not just /var, it's all the directories besides the one I want it to only access. It can still access the one I want it to only access, but it can also access all the other ones17:21

urlin2uskegeek, when it freezes do you have a lot of apps open?19:42
cnzI just rebooted and now that I have rebooted I cannot access my windows partition, cdrom, or any usb ports any ideas?19:42
skegeekIt froze on me twice already within 5 minutes of booting, without ANY apps up at all.19:43
urlin2ucnz, any background to that reboot?19:43
cnzurlin2u: nothing other than rebooted into windows to use odin really quick19:44
qmanjr5If I have multiple people logged into my computer at the same time, my sound doesn't work on my account. How do I fix this, or why does it do this?19:44
qmanjr5BluesKaj, oops, didn't see you responded. Thanks.19:44
qmanjr5But it's only when other people are logged on.19:44
BluesKajskegeek, make sure you've allowed enough diskspace for the wubi install19:45
skegeek18G19:45
urlin2ucnz, boot ubuntu and run sudo update-grub  you describe not getting to windows is this true?19:45
cnzno19:45
cnzthat is not what I described19:46
skegeekThe default was 18G, so that's what I gave it.19:46
cnzi can boot into windows just fine19:46
qmanjr5BluesKaj, adding myself to the audio group didn't do anything.19:46
ArsonideI reformatted my netbook with Ubuntu and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get wifi working. I have Googled and tried all those solutions and now I'm just kind of flailing about in the synaptic manager uselessly.19:46
cnzbut after I rebooted into windows and booted back into ubuntu i can no longer access any usb ports, cdroms, or any other partitions on the drive.19:46
urlin2ucnz, I just rebooted and now that I have rebooted """I cannot access my windows partition"""cdrom, or any usb ports any ideas?  It isn't19:46
BluesKajskegeek, that should be plenty19:47
ArsonideMost of the solutions tell me to go to Hardware Drivers and activate a broadcom sta driver, but that list is blank and says "No Proprietary Drivers Found"19:47
urlin2ucnz, be accurate please.19:47
cnzhow can I be more accurate?19:47
Exxonskegeek, with that free space you can install wubi with ease.19:47
BluesKajqm is the sound working for others then ?19:47
qmanjr5Cnz's problem is very very simple, he cannot access any other partitions.19:47
BluesKajqmanjr5,^19:47
qmanjr5BluesKaj, I believe so. I'll check.19:48
urlin2ucnz, you said you could not access your windows partition but left out from ubuntu if that is the case.  Is it a wubi install?19:48
cnzno19:48
cnzand no I didn't leave that out19:48
Arsonideanybody have any tips?19:48
cnzi said when I booted back into ubuntu19:48
cnzanyways, ubuntu is on one partition windows is on another19:49
qmanjr5cnz, maybe you have to mount it? I'm not sure.19:49
qmanjr5BluesKaj, it works not that I've logged back in. Odd.19:49
cnzqmanjr5: it was auto mounting before19:49
qmanjr5Maybe something messed up.19:49
qmanjr5Just a suggestion.19:49
necromancerhey guys, why won't SoX recognize the libraries i installed via APT?19:49
cnzi an't even access my thumb drives now either though19:49
urlin2ucnz, you have to realize that that was way into the conversation and seconds apart from my post.19:49
Exxonwith wubi all partitions are pre-mounted ..designed to be that way19:50
urlin2ucnz, so in other words your auto mounting set up with fstab is not working is this correct?19:50

ravenwhat is an open source (voip) tool similar to skype?22:10
c_smithchandra_, from what I can see the system is broken, quite possibly beyond the point of recovery. I haven't run into this myself, but as a general rule, if an update segfaults, you'll likely have a broken-beyond-recovery system, if you can't fix the ecryptfs via recovery steps, that's a bad sign.22:10
omidoraven:  all others suck . at least they sucked for me22:10
meerkatshi raven, I was asking the same22:10
ctwizhi all!  I have a media temple VE server, and for some reason I've updated things through apt-get and now when I rebooted, I can't ping or ssh into the server. When I've used the "repair" functionality of their service (essentially a temporary OS with my server partition mounted under /repair) /var/log/boot,message seems to be 0 size. I've checked /etc/syslog.conf and it seems to be configured correctly. Is there anything else I can check to22:10

chandra_c_smith: but after i remove live boot medium and reboot, i can not see them anymore22:11

chandra_c_smith: yes, that is what i think too. but when i login to my system, i cannot see them22:12

yamahaalex37sudo a2enmod rewrite fixed it22:13
c_smithchandra_, then you might be able to do a fresh install while keeping the /home partition intact.22:13
chandra_c_smith: when i login into my system, and try to mount private, it asks for some passphrase. i enter my login password and then it says wrong passphrase. i even unwrapped the passphrase (via live medium) and entered it, but didnt work22:14
chandra_c_smith: i thought abt it too. but i was afraid i would lose my data in /home22:14
ctwizanyone have any idea?22:15
chandra_what do you think? c_smith ?22:15
c_smithchandra_, if you do a fresh install on the PC in the way I'm about to detail you will be able to come out with the same /home partition you left, as in it won't be touched apart from being mount to the directory.22:15
ctwizor know where I might look next?22:15
chandra_c_smith: ok. and would it also mount it properly to /home so that i can login and see my files again ?22:15
Ansiktchandra: So long as your home is not encrypted, it should be easy.22:16
Ansiktchandra:  Yes!22:16
c_smithchandra_, can't say for sure, as this isn't something I have run into myself.22:16
chandra_do  you know is there someone else who might be able to help me log in? c_smith22:16
chandra_i would not like to risk losing my files22:16
chandra_and right now i do not have a good backup medium too22:16
Ansiktchandra:  During install, don't choose 'format', and choose '/home' as the mount point.22:17
meerkatshow do I add myself to the voice group? its for ekiga (VOiP Client)? sudo adduser username voice ?22:17
c_smithchandra_, ask around, but you can keep the partition intact by just setting the mount point of the partition to /home but not checking the format box22:17

chandra_c_smith: Ansikt bpietro one question: if i reinstall the system w/o formatting /home, it might ask me for encryption option, what do i choose there? do i encrypt the home, or leave it like that, choose a passphrase, or what ?22:33
bpietrochandra_: dunno :(22:34
c_smithchandra_, It shouldn't ask you whether you want to have it encrypted or not, as it uses the old settings.22:36
chandra_c_smith: ok, and what would happen to the passphrase ?22:36
c_smithchandra_, it would use the old one.22:36

diverdudeHow do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?22:43
chandra_c_smith: no22:44
c_smithwell, then, it would be hard for you to do a complete reinstall (formatting the home partition, too) if it goes corrupt.22:44
c_smithchandra_, have you tried to reinstall yet?22:45
chandra_c_smith: good thing is i can still access my home files from live medium. i will get a backup medium and copy the files over soon22:45
chandra_c_smith: i dont want to try to reinstall because i fear losing my data22:45
chandra_if reinstall doesnt change the situation, i dont see why i should do it c_smith22:45
c_smithchandra_, it seems that would be the most efficient way to fix this, if you files are still intact on the live session, they will be after installing.22:46
diverdudeHow do i disable touchpad on my lenovo in ubuntu 11.10?22:46
c_smithchandra_, the reinstall touches none of the data it doesn't need unless you specify the partition to be formatted.22:47
chandra_c_smith: but this situation was not predicted. i can login to my system but i cant see my files- this is clearly something wrong. i fear something unexplainable happens after reinstall too. afterall there might be some easy excuse later- "it was a bug" or so on :)22:47
chandra_if i am not sure, i would not like to do it :) c_smith22:47
c_smithchandra_, ok, well, I'm out of ideas then, I'll have to recommend trying the Ubuntu support forums, I can get you a link if you'd like.22:48

ubottugigawatt: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". For 11.10, see !notunity23:31
gigawatt!notunity23:32
ubottuUbuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic23:32
washuu_deI'm NOT using Unity23:32
SunTsuwashuu_de: not everything is about you23:32

litropyHi, peeps. I have a trackball. I'm attempting to use xinput to make it so that when I press both left-click (button 1) and right-click (button 3), my window scrolls with the mouse.  I'd also like to release both buttons and still retain this functionality until I click again. See for more info: http://pastebin.com/3prT5SEJ23:41

fschuindtguys, I've installed the ubuntu 11.10 but I can't use the new visual... So I setup the gnome-classic mode, but it also is different. How can I install the older gnome?23:49
Jack`n4dsp23:50
SunTsuwashuu_de: you might want to be more precise with your question. What are you doing exactly, ingoing, outgoing, who connects where and stuff23:50
Jack`try hotmail gmail yahoo23:50

Eriondanyone familiar with  makefile internals?23:52
SunTsuEriond: ask away23:52
washuu_deOK... T23:52
EriondI'm trying to -include another file, but it's actually checking the dependencies at inclusion, so it's running targets I don't exactly want it to run.23:53
EriondIs there anyway to have it not run those dependencies?23:53
washuu_deI upgraded to Natty...23:53
JusticeZerofschuindt: there was this messy breakup sort of thing with gnome for whatever reason. (Sounded like a good reason even if I couldn't understand the details.) Try new things. A lot of people are playing with xubuntu-desktop, etc. these days.23:53
JusticeZeroHey, does anyone know how fast a cheap memory stick should degrade till you can't use it as a quickstart anymore, if you're putting different images on it?23:56
washuu_deNow I can not open or close ports. A firewall called "firestarter" tha I had installed before the upfate weorks no more. I removed and re-installed it. To no avail.23:57
SunTsuwashuu_de: Please read this: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html23:58
