Slartmang0_: what was the original problem, by the way.. gnome-shell running slow?00:00
adi111its mostly called Geforce 715000:00
alkafoohicham: hit the top left Ubuntu icon and search for their name00:00
mang0_Slart: Basically I was running fine on metacity, but I wanted a change. I installed gnome-shell, just to try it, and you know the rest. As soon as I switched, this problem occured.00:00
hichamalkafoo, thanx, but isn't there any map?00:01
Fudgeanyone know how to make sound in unity remember your mic instead of reverting to front mic input00:01
FLeiXiuSIs there a way to retrieve the installation history when installing ubuntu from a cd?00:01
alkafoohicham: I'm not sure with Unity00:01
MastersI'm gonna reinstall and just keep all default settings00:01
alkafoosomeone else will know00:01
Donkorohai every one ^^00:01
Mastersoh alka, should I make a swap partition, or let the installer do whatever it wants?00:01
perre`oii00:01
=== will is now known as Guest68390
alkafooMasters: either should be fine00:02
Mastershow big should it be? laptop had 4GB of ram00:02
alkafooand you can reconfigure it to a certain extent after installation00:02
perre`someone here who know something about vlc media streams ? ( video on demand )00:02
alkafooMasters: 4GB should do nicely00:02
alkafooperre`: something? Yes00:02
mang0_Slart: AHA! Gnome-session might have something to do with it >:D00:02
Masters4gb of swap spacE? got it00:02
Slartmang0_: hmm.. I'm running gnome-shell on my laptop.. not a very powerful machine but I'm not seeing any slowdowns or anything.. if anything it's snappier than it was with gnome00:03
hichamsomeone else?00:03
mang0_Slart: Just went back to the site, and read waht they said: sudo apt-get install gnome-session, sudo apt-get install gnome-shell00:03
mang0_Slart: That might explain the weird mix.00:03
perre`can i come to a private chat alkafoo ? talks easier00:03
Slartmang0_: it's possible that ubuntu uses something other than gnome-session.. I'm not sure though00:03
almoxarifeadi111: its loading glx drivers, i thought those were intel, not sure though00:03
mang0_Slart: Let me uninstall gnome-session, and we'll see what happens? No harm trying I suppose00:03
Slartmang0_: I've got gnome-session installed as well.. and I'm running plain ubuntu, with unity00:04
urlin2uFLeiXiuS, so what is your goal?00:04
Mastersor always wondered00:04
mang0_Slart: Weird....00:04
Mastersshould swap partition be primary or logical partition?00:04
adi111ok so what can i do?00:04
FLeiXiuSurlin2u, I have a preseeds file that isn't running a late_command property and I want to know why its failing.00:04
Slartmang0_: lets not go uninstall vital system stuff without at least checking around a bit =)00:04
mang0_Slart: Well, I'll give it a go. If not, I've gotta sleep, and carry on tomorrow, it's late. (early!)00:04
urlin2uFLeiXiuS, ah no clue here.00:05
mang0_Slart: I don't think gnome-session is vital, as I just installed it00:05

fellayaboyumm one thats for windows..i want to install ubuntu and i need to install windoze$01:21

fellayaboygrub4dos can install both linux and windows from a usb?01:21
alien2050fellayaboy: M$ does not want you to run Linux so they scrap the MBR when Winbloze is installed01:21

jason404I don't know is the Amazon AMI image I am using is non-standard, but I am trying to modify the ssh login banner, but the intructions I find on the net seem to be invalid, as on my server /etc/motd is clearly a dynamically created file01:33

gebbionei am changing apache virtual hosts to use folders under this ntfs drive and i get a permission error01:34
tech936azariah4 what is your problem01:34
Mastersoh right I finally remember what I wanted to ask as well01:34
Mastersmy laptop has a fingerprint scanner, Latitude D830, does Linux work with these?01:34
tech936gebbione is the drive a external harddrive?01:34
azariah4tech936: not connected via ethernet, I wanted to bring up the interface first, is that possible?01:34
gebbioneno SATA01:35
gebbioneinternally connected01:35
tech936master or slave?01:35
zykotick9tech936: SATA doesn't have master/slave01:35
Mastersesmansipation proclimation!!!01:35
tech936yeah sorry trying to do to many things01:35
gebbionemaster should be the one where i m running the OS right? so no01:35
gebbioneslave01:35
tech936ok azariah4 plug in the ethernet01:36
Mastersya gebb01:36
tech936and yes gebbione thats what i ment01:36
jason404Masters: depends on the model of the scanner I suppose, as you can get the ones on ThinkPads working: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Special:GoogleFind?domains=www.thinkwiki.org&q=fingerprint+scanner&sa=Google+Search&sitesearch=www.thinkwiki.org&client=pub-9115710338321120&forid=1&channel=1405984697&ie=ISO-8859-1&oe=ISO-8859-1&sig=myLy8cf2xe40P1pS&cof=GALT%3A%23606060%3BGL%3A1%3BDIV%3A%23336699%3BVLC%3A663399%3BAH%3Acenter%3BBGC%3AF01:36
MastersMaster is usually your MAIN hard drive01:36
Mastersslaves are usually CD rom drives and such01:36
tech936see how come you guys got what i ment01:36
Mastersor a data drive if it's on the same ribbon01:36
gebbioneyea i have that drive as a slave then01:36
skrewtDoes "install a minimal system" include any GUI or is it command line only?01:36
hauxalien2050, so there's an extension that looks like default?01:37
jason404master and slave? huh? that is from the IDE days and not applicable to SATA?01:37
Mastersright jason01:37
zykotick9skrewt: in what context?  Only mini and server come without GUI i default (i believe)01:37
tech936gebbione try re formatting the drive may remove the problem and yes slave and master were the best back in the day i make sure i still work with them01:37

ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD01:38

RokcStarwooohoo i did it! i installed grub from scratch01:38
wabash$DISPLAY is :0.001:39

gebbionetech936: impossible where do i move the data to ... no alternative looks like a lame way for linux to handle ntfs01:39
tech936is  ssh -l -x ip01:39

tech936yh01:40

wabashAliv3: Yes. Tell me more.01:41
Aliv3Compiz won't open w/o command, earlier it crashed along with some python script, and unity, im on gnome 3 ubuntu 11.10, i tried to do compiz, and compiz --display :0.0, both of those give me error messages01:42
alien2050Aliv3: gnome3 and compiz are not compatible at the moment unfortunately, one is based on mutter WM and the devs are having problems getting together and solving the issues, last I heard01:44

flowerpotIf you run rm -rf foo is it possible that rm would remove things outside the directory foo?01:46
tech936i downloaded a copy of the iso01:46
alien2050aliv3: if you're running 11.10, they say you can go back to unity, haven't tried though... otherwise just don't run compiz01:47

alien2050aliv3: cuz usually you would just test out gnome-shell in the beginning, like adding gnome-shell to your startup apps, etc... but now it's been integrated in 11.10, although if you look on the net you'll find a couple of tutorials on how to uninstall gnome-shell entirely... but I decided to keep gnome-shell so I didn't have to uninstall it... yet :)01:50
alien2050aliv3: by integrated, I mean it can be installed through package manager really easily01:51
alien2050aliv3: so you'll have look around... something like http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185980901:52

phixVashta_Nerada: ok, well you need to know one to access a database :)  I personally use django framework which uses python.  There are also other frameworks you can learn which uses other scripting and programming languages (like cake for PHP, wicket for java, rail for ruby, etc...)02:33
dns53Zacarias so is anything strange about your setup? using nfs mounted share or something strange like that?02:33

patriceok1First day user of Linux and IRC here.  I posted earlier today that I was having trouble with the IRC component of the Empathy client supplied in ubuntu lucid/10.4 .  Have switched to Pidgin and added a couple of add-ons that give xChat-like ability, it says. I have never used xChat, but I am noticing this interface is a VAST improvement over Empathy.  ( I have a couple MSN and AIM accounts, and it checks for mail in those, as well, which Empathy did not, and03:29

tehB3NJ1EI was using 11.04, but then it broke. (Don't ask me what happened. I am ashamed of it...) Anyways, I ued Windows 7 for a few months. Today, I tried to set up Ubuntu again. It did not dected my main hard-drive's windows installation, so to be safe, I installed it onto a 1TB external hard-drive. It was a fresh installation of 11.10 thorough a freshly-burned live-cd...03:31

patriceok1acerimmer: I don't understand gnome--my first day looking at a linux interface of any kind here--and I don't understand why you would choose something that is 'going away soon'.  You mean support for it will discontinue? or downloads will be pulled and you are 'hoarding' it?03:40

UblunttuNewa: pulseaudio -k or --k I think ?03:40
Demonstratepatriceok1: like in windows, on ubuntu you can set "open with"03:42
acerimmerpatriceok1: not a problem.  With ubuntu 12.04, I believe, gnome will be deprecated and no longer the default desktop manger.  Major work is going into re-engineering some distros.  e.g. UbuntuStudio (my distro) has begun work porting over to the xfce destop manager.03:42
patriceok1acerimmer:thanks 4 info/clararification on Chatzilla/FF  configuration.  I am used to Pidgin from Windows, and there is a portable version I have on a thumb drive I take to my sister's so I don't need own computer, etc.03:42

patriceok1So WINE is a partition or it runs within ubuntu?03:52
acerimmerpatriceok1: if you like what you've got, keep it.  Downloading other programs, distros is free.  If you really want to, devote some time to learning some of the cool ubuntu tricks - as you've clearly done since you're on .irc.  Otherwise, maintain your updates, enjoy the OS.03:52

patriceok1acerimmer: first thing I did before investigating software was to update the whole catalog and system.  There were 127 things to update.  Now it says the next update would be "Ubuntu 10.0" and I've held off, figuring there was a reason my friend wanted me in 10.4 (like support, known devils being better than unknown, etc.)03:54
acerimmerpatriceok1: wine is a program that runs under linux.  It fools some windows programs into believing that they're in a windows environment not a *nix environment.  Not 100% capable, though.  It puts those program in a faux "c" drive not a partition03:54

sheroroxdr-willis: ok Ill be back in a little with more questions04:32
Gerald_tensorpudding, there is not patch...they just discussed that in here04:32
tensorpuddingrecompiling it will not change anything unless you're patching it04:33
Gerald_tensorpudding, patch to the kernel?04:33
tensorpuddingas in, changing the source04:33
Gerald_tensorpudding, i want the change to be effective...so i need to recompile the kernel?04:34
tensorpuddingwhat change04:34
tensorpuddingis it the code blurb in that page04:34
mistformpressing Esc while fullscreen in firefox does not work. Does anyone know a workaround? I looked around about:config and didn't see anything that stood out.04:35
Gerald_tensorpudding, yes04:35
Mike98632Is there a way to put Bookmarks below Computer in Nautilus?04:35
tensorpuddingGerald_, well04:35
tensorpuddingGerald_, it's a bit involved, if you want to do it "the right way"04:35
Gerald_tensorpudding, i wanna give a try04:35
tensorpuddingyou would get the source package for the kernel you have04:35
selina2bookmarks in nautilus file sistem?04:35
tensorpuddingthen write a patch for what you want to change04:36
tensorpuddingand integrate it into the package patches04:36
tensorpuddingthen build the source package04:36
Gerald_tensorpudding, seems a lot of effort?04:36
tensorpuddingand install it using the software center or dpkg04:36
tensorpuddingGerald_, yes04:36
Gerald_tensorpudding, ;(04:36
tensorpuddingget source, patch source, compile, install04:36
tensorpuddingit'd require you getting to know the ubuntu package tools04:37
tensorpuddingat least superficially04:37
Gerald_tensorpudding, patch source = add those changes from the website?04:37
tensorpuddingwell, you'd change it, and create a diff04:37
tensorpuddingthe diff being a file describing what you changed, that is a patch04:38
Gerald_tensorpudding, how can i only compile the related part in the kernel?04:38
tensorpuddingyou can't04:38
Gerald_tensorpudding, like ACM driver...04:38
tensorpuddingthe ACM driver is presumably part of the linux kernel source tree04:39
tensorpuddingsince it's on the linux kernel site04:39
zykotick9Mike98632: i wouldn't hold my breath - Ubuntu/Gnome3 aren't really made for customization.  Good luck man.04:39
Gerald_tensorpudding, so i need to compile all of the tree?04:39
mistformpressing Esc while viewing fullscreen videos/games in firefox does not work. Does anyone know a workaround? I looked around about:config and didn't see anything that stood out.04:40
Mike98632zykotick9: Yeah, it's really unfortunate. :(04:40
tensorpuddingin which case, it's build when you run make in the kernel, and while there is a way to compile a bit of the kernel it'd require you separating it into a module04:40
tensorpuddingGerald_, yes04:40
tensorpuddingbasically04:40
Gerald_tensorpudding, oh:)04:40
tensorpuddingthe kernel in ubuntu is configured to include most all of the available drivers as part of the kernel04:40
tensorpuddingthey're not "separate"04:40
tensorpuddingexactly04:40
Gerald_tensorpudding, i have linux 2.3.36-27-generic .. so i need those sourceS?04:41
tensorpudding2.6.36?04:41

EvilResistancetensorpudding:  whats he trying to get?04:44
Gerald_tensorpudding, which linux image?04:44
tensorpuddingthe one that matches your kernel04:44
Gerald_tensorpudding, im searching it...04:44
tensorpuddingprobably linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic if you're running maverick04:44
tensorpuddingyou can get the version using 'uname -a', or by looking in the system information04:45
Gerald_tensorpudding, i have ubuntu 10.1004:45
tensorpuddingthere's generally several versions04:46
Gerald_tensorpudding, http://openpaste.org/6Ed17cf004:47
mistformtensorpudding, I forget where to remove previous versions to prevent clogging up my bootloader screen.04:47
tensorpuddingmistform, there is unfortunately not a simple way to do that04:47

Gerald_tensorpudding, i have maverick04:48
tensorpuddingwell, there is a simple way, but it's tedious and requires searching and typing a lot04:48
tensorpuddingGerald_, okay04:49

HDMIaudioguyHow do I upgrade to kernel version 3.2?04:49
DetergentizerHi!04:49
DetergentizerI do not understand adumbration could be synonymous with oxymoron04:49
tensorpuddingHDMIaudioguy, it's not really supported04:49
tensorpuddingHDMIaudioguy, you might get lucky and check for a kernel ppa04:50
tensorpuddingthat's something which likely exists04:50
[deXter]HDMIaudioguy, google for ubuntu mainlike kernel ppa04:50
tensorpuddingthen you add it to your software sources, and you'll get kernel upgrades04:50
[deXter]*mainline04:50
mistform!define adumbration04:50
mistformlol nvm...04:50
robmanhey...can anyone tell me the package name for a pre-9.0.1 version of firefox so I can downgrade pls04:50
mistformrobman, use synaptic package manager04:51
aBound9.0.1. is officially released for Firefox.04:51
tensorpuddingrobman, downgrading would be problematic04:51
robmanmistform - ta04:51
robmanaBound - 9.0.1 crashes lots04:51
robmantensorpudding - why?04:51
tensorpuddingold versions are not supported anymore by canonical, and you'd have to manually subvert the upgrade process04:51
tensorpuddingwhich would try to update firefox every time04:52
robmanpackage management blows anyhoos04:52
mistformI use 3.6 lol04:52
robmanit's continually trying to force thunderbird down my throat - and i don't want it04:52
=== dns_ is now known as dns53
robmantensorpudding - i happily uncheck boxes a lot 8)04:52
tensorpuddingGerald_, the source you want is linux-image-2.6.35-27-generic04:53
mistformrobman, I found my FF by googling "download previous versions of FF"04:53
robmanmistform - i tried that but got lazy so tried here 8) thanks tho04:53
urlin2urobman, uninstall thunderbird and the updates will go away.04:53
Gerald_tensorpudding, is apt-get to download it? :)04:53
robmanurlin2u - tried that several ways - very open to tips on how04:53
tensorpuddingapt-get source linux-image-2.6.35-27-generic04:53
tensorpuddingwill fetch the source, unpack it and patch it for you04:54
tensorpuddingthen you can work04:54
tensorpuddingcompiling source packages will cause issues you should be aware of04:54
Gerald_tensorpudding, apt-get only downloads the source?04:54
urlin2urobman, sudo apt-get purge thunderbird      check for any others pulled in  think it stands alone.04:54
tensorpuddingGerald_, no, apt-get source04:54
tensorpuddingsource is the command04:55
tensorpuddinglike install04:55
Gerald_tensorpudding, forgot04:55

Gerald_and to install the source?04:55
Gerald_tensorpudding, sorry never did before haha04:55
* |Anthony| clears throat04:55
aBoundrobman, You can try upgrading to the beta. I don't think there's any ports to downgrade from.04:55
|Anthony|In the top panel, there is a default launcher for firefox. The launcher command is firefox %u04:55
|Anthony|What does the %u refer to?04:55
tensorpuddingGerald_, i don't have time to teach you how to do the whole packaging process, there's a lot of tutorials and books describing it04:55
tensorpuddingyou aren't writing a package, you're only patching it04:55
robmanaBound 8/ ta04:55
tensorpuddingbut you'll need to understand how packaging works to build and install your patched package04:56
tensorpuddinghttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete04:57
aBoundrobman, The only way I see you getting version 8.0 is by compiling.04:57
tensorpuddingis the semi-official ubuntu description04:57
robmanaBound - that might be a good idea anyways04:57
tensorpuddingthere are parts you can skip04:57
veebullAnybody have any idea why the keyboard would stop working in Dash, but still work everywhere else?04:58
tensorpuddingall you should be concerned with is how to build and how to patch it04:58
aBoundUsually they tend to get rid of old releases and grabbing a PPA from launchpad.net won't do any good. Seeing as they either have stable or beta versions. By stable they refer to 9.0.1.04:58
aBoundrobman, You'd probably be upgrading to Firefox 10 when it's released on January 31st.05:00
robmanaBound - happy to try it - just need lots of browsers for testing - ideally ones that work05:00
robman8)05:01
mistform"You said there was a leak in the kitchen. Thanks to your adumbration I showed up with a pipe wrench and wet shoes."05:01
mistformtook me a little bit to make a simple statement using the word "adumbration." unfortunately my migraine prevents me from creating greater05:01
aBoundFirefox 10.0 the beta worked for me but ideally compiling firefox is the only way to get 8 as far as I see it.05:01
aBoundrobman, You could always try the #firefox channel.05:02
aBound:P05:02
robmanyah...probably more appropriate 8)05:02
robmanoff to get flamed - cya - thanks everyone05:02
Gerald_tensorpudding, why is it download another version? http://openpaste.org/A9c52Cfa05:05
tensorpuddingGerald_, because it's a source package, the source package has a different name05:05
Gerald_hm05:05
tensorpuddingi think the one you have is outdated05:06
tensorpuddingessentially, the source package gets updates, and updates create new packages05:07
tensorpuddingthis is so you can have multiple kernels installed at once05:07
tensorpuddingyou can't have multiple versions of the same package at once, so the different kernel builds have different packages05:07
tensorpuddingthe source package matches the source for the most recent one05:07
faux_shoIs there any way to add the shutdown and restart buttons to gnome-shell(so I don't have to hold the alt key) without having to add a ppa and install an extension?05:08
tensorpuddingthat's why there's like a half dozen different kernel versions in maverick05:08
tensorpuddingevery time they pull bugfixes they bump the version number05:08

sightlightim currently in the last step with if the =yum problem05:15
=== gcunha_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha
TrueShiftBlueyum is the wrong build system, use apt-get05:15
TrueShiftBlueSpecifically, apt-get build-dep wine05:15
sightlight=yum -y install xorg*  =yum -y install gnome* (if u have gnome x) =yum -y install gdm*05:15
tensorpuddingsightlight, if it says yum you should not be following the guide because it won't work in ubuntu05:15
HDMIaudioguytensorpudding: Yes, through the GUI and alsa05:15
TrueShiftBlueYou may also be interested in adding the wine ppa if you're having troubles05:15
tensorpuddingare you using alsa?05:16
HDMIaudioguyYes05:16
tensorpuddingi don't think alsamixer affects things if you are using pulseaudio05:16
sightlight=yum is not ubuntu?05:16
HDMIaudioguyhow can i unmute things in pulseaudio?05:16
sightlighta wow05:16
selina2yum is rpm05:16
selina2apt-get is for ubuntu05:16
TrueShiftBluesightlight, ubuntu uses apt-get05:16

sightlightI just need the X stuff to compile05:17
sightlightits the last thing05:17
TrueShiftBluesightlight, sudo apt-get build-dep wine05:17
tensorpuddingHDMIaudioguy, well, if you used pavucontrol to check all the channels and make sure that they are sending audio05:17
TrueShiftBluesightlight,It will get all the required dependancies to build wine05:18
tensorpuddingHDMIaudioguy, it should work, then05:18
sightlightbuild-dep is 510MB!!05:18
sightlightwow!05:18
TrueShiftBluewine has a lot of dependancies05:18
TrueShiftBlueHave you considered using their ppa?05:18
HDMIaudioguytensoraudio: should I just run that from the terminal?05:19
sightlightthe update just came out05:19
sightlightand they will take like 3 weeks to update their PPA05:19
tensorpuddingHDMIaudioguy, it's called pulseaudio volume control, it'll appear in Applications05:20
tensorpuddingif you have installed it05:20
TrueShiftBlueWell, you'll need all of wine's build dependancies in order to build wine. It's up to you whether you consider it still worth it or not with all the downloads required.05:20
sightlightima get then the build-dep05:21
=== dns__ is now known as dns53
sightlightthats all?05:21
TrueShiftBluebuild-dep will get all of the dependancies required to build wine as indicated by the repositories, as far as I'm aware wine HEAD doesn't need anything more.05:22
TrueShiftBlueAfter the build dependancies have been fetched, you'll still need to follow the usual configure/make build chain, of course.05:23
HDMIaudioguytensorpudding: I checked the pulseaudio settings, nothing's muted, still no audio05:24
sightlighthey TSB05:24
tensorpuddingi think it has to do with video drivers05:24
TrueShiftBlueYes?05:24
sightlightE: Must specify at least one package to check builddeps for05:24
tensorpuddingdo you have intel, ati or nvidia video?05:25
TrueShiftBluesudo apt-get build-dep wine05:25

tensorpuddingmaybe you need to add a config thing in the pulseaudio config for the hardware output05:33

EvilResistanceuabn93:  but there are risks to that...05:33

I was laying in bed thinking about RAID before I go to sleep and I was wondering, if you had a mirrored RAID setup, and one of the disks died, could you just pop in a new disk of equall or greater size, and be back in buisness? and if so, would the Software RAID controller simply copy all the contents of one drive into the other? would it inform you of this? or donit06:51

lotuspsychjeaidrocsid: i think remote desktop for previous, was gnome... somthing06:56
dns53sheena1 perhaps but October was not that long ago, i would see if you can get a usb sound card or take your laptop to a linux geek from your loco /  linux user group and they might have a better idea06:57

pnormanIf you have the disk installed most hardware raid controllers can designate it as a hot spare and use it when another disk fails, but you'll have to give the controllor commands when you install the disk or else it doesn't know what you want to do withit07:02

pnormanIf you just plug a random disk in, it won't do anything to it until you tell it to. Some external NAS devices might be otherwise, but what I said should hold true for any card07:04

inashdeenHi, i am having a bit of difficulties here. I am using ubuntu 11.10, and the problem is, the sound keeps getting muted by itself. I can easily change them on Alsamixer, but is there a way to avoid this problem?09:33
theadmininashdeen: This sounds silly, but could you check if the "Sound on/off" key on your keyboard isn't stuck or something?09:34
=== jacob is now known as Guest96540
inashdeentheadmin : Definitely not. If not,the problem would have been exhibited on windows. This occur time and again, even after I reinstall ubuntu 11.10 The muted can only be seen on Alsamixer ( the sound control pannel didnt show them). If not for tips on forum, i wouldnt know bout the alsa mixer09:36
theadmininashdeen: Hm, that's strange... I'm not sure what could be causing such behaviour, especially if it appears even after a clean install09:37
inashdeentheadmin : any idea of how to write a script to overwrite this issue09:37
theadmininashdeen: Hm... type "crontab -e" in the terminal and then add this to the file: * * * * * aumix -v100 # This will keep volume at 100% at all times, or at least should. Make sure "aumix" is installed though.09:41

RokcStar_does anyone here have experience with loading iso's from grub?10:01
cheakoThe problem started right after I attempted to install and configure the rgba gtk2 module.10:01
cheakoThis required a change/replace of the default GTK engine.  I didn't know how to do this in the first place and now I don't know how to get it back.10:02
cheakoI created another user account and all is fine there.10:02
RokcStar_anyone have experience with Grub?10:02
cheakoRokcStar_: Grub multi boot disk has every example ever consieved... and it's bootable so you can try them _all_ out.10:03
cheakoIt's like the 3rd or 4th menu item.10:03

RokcStar_hmmm10:10
RokcStar_what if thats the only image available10:11
cheakoI was going to say boot loader or kernel, but you narrowed it down.10:11
cheakoRokcStar_: Boot another computer.10:11
RokcStar_oh wait...it finished booting10:11
cheakoI don't under stand the whole GTK engines thing.  Is there some one who can explain it?10:12

SpikeLyalmoxarife: the problem started a few days ago, in those few days i tried everything to see if it solved the issue (including reinstalling ubuntu and a router factory reset). Non of the things i tried seem to work.10:20
cheakoSpikeLy: If at all possible stop using wireless.  There are plenty of causes but keep in mind regular stick antenna produce a doughnut shaped envelope, you need to be in your doughnut and out of any one else?s.  Channels are important as are obstructions, radio does work by line of sight, so if you can't see your AP all bets are off.  Plenty of other devices that you can't see and especially the ones that are week in signal will cause proble10:20
cheakoms for you.10:20
cheakoSpikeLy: Some one else could have gotten wireless for xmass.10:21
SpikeLycheako: the machine a few cm away from it works fine using the same access point :)10:21
almoxarifeSpikeLy: can you pastebin your syslog?10:21
dannelSpikeLy, did you move/drop your router? The wifi card in my router once came loose after i kicked it so wifi didn't work10:21

cheakodelinquentme: I've always used the command line tools, so there is only one spelling of zip/rar/tar/ect.10:23
RokcStar_i replaced my wireless G router to a netgear N model..and my signal from the N router is less powerful than the G model router...go figure.10:23
RokcStar_changing wirelss channels helps10:23

delinquentmelike *should* be able to extract .zip files with the default util right?10:28

After a reboot, grub tells me it cannot find md127 and drops me to a shell13:10

haluanI need help to install ati radeon drivers?13:12
SomeusHello gyts13:12
ikoniaTvL2386: 2.) why isn't it there - probably because the device is not started13:13
TvL2386ikonia, it is true that when I'm dropped to the shell, there is no md* device in /dev13:13
TvL2386ikonia, though /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are present13:13
ikoniaTvL2386: 3.) to resolve it, boot a livecd, manually start the raid array (look for any errors), if the array starts cleanly, update /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf, then update your grub config with the correct metadevice (probably fall back to /dev/md0 now)13:13

ikoniaTvL2386: not if the raid device is not started13:22
TvL2386ikonia, so updating mdadm.conf with the correct md device would fix this?13:23
SomeusOn ubuntu i have IP: 192.168.1.1 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS: 192.168.1.1  Is it ok?13:23
ikoniaTvL2386: it would certainly help it13:23
ikoniaTvL2386: also manually starting the device to confirm the correct meta device13:23
ikoniaSomeus: that is all set to use the router - if your router can deal with that, then it's fine13:23
bassowhats the keyboard shortcut to change layouts?13:23
Someusoh sorry IP: 192.168.1.19913:23
Someusoh sorry 192.168.1.100 :D13:23

TvL2386ikonia, the ubuntu rescue cd has automatically mounted/started md127 which looks good13:24
SomeusIt is pretty good router :)13:24
ikoniaSomeus: then you are fine13:24
ikoniaTvL2386: ok, so you should be ok13:24
Someusno i am not :D i don`t have internet connection13:24
ikoniaSomeus: then your router is not forwarding it to the internet gateway13:24
Someuswhy it was ok with two windows machines?13:25
ikoniaI don't know as you can't tell me the windows sertings13:25
Someushmm13:25
wingotSomeus: Try pinging your router from the ubuntu machine13:25
ikoniaSomeus: on the ubuntu machine ping 192.168.1.113:25
Someuswhat is the solution?13:25
Someusso what`s there?13:26
Someusseems ok13:26
A_JSomeus: :|13:26

Someusthat`s sad13:28
SomeusBecause i have problem like this with ubuntu only13:28
ikoniaSomeus: it's not an ubuntu issue13:28
ikoniait's your networking13:28
wingotSomeus: At a guess something's changed that would be stopping the WinXP one from working as well13:29
wingotSomeus: Actually: Do a pastebin of your route -n output13:29
wingotJust want to look at something, that you have a route setup for 0.0.0.0 and not just 192.168.0.013:29
ikoniahe should have, as we asked what the defualt router was13:29
ikoniaroute13:29
wingotWell, obviously not a direct pastebin :P.13:29
ikoniaand he confirmed default = 192.168.1.113:30

TvL2386ikonia, The ubuntu installer kept telling me to load SATA drivers which would detect an nvidia_stripe raid 0 device. I think this is some remnant from the past. The specs of my mobo (asus p5-vm) doesn't show nvidia controllers. I already did a dd of the first 100MB of the disk, which was obviously not enough. After dd'ing the entire disk, the nvidia_stripe seems gone15:11

metasansanassh without prompts?15:19
Colin969Someone?15:20
wingotmetasansana: Yes, there is.15:20
wingotBy not setting local key passphrases.15:20
metasansana:/15:20
metasansanaIs that secure?15:20
wingotIf the local private key has a passphrase you'll need to put it in.15:20
wingotOnly makes sense ;)15:20
RrahulChavanwingot:so ive to pu only *is* after terminal log in As $ *is*     is thaat15:21
wingotDepends on the purpose: If it's connecting to an account on a server under a specific username that only has limited functionality to do what it needs, sure.15:21
tim167how do I figure out my keyboard layout...? anyone?15:21
metasansanaIs the local passpharse just for encryption or something wingot?15:21
wingotIf it's for the account that can sudo to get root AND you're storing the private key somewhere public: Definitely not.15:21
wingotAnd then "secure" is a sliding scale between the two.15:22
robhuI'm doing the 11.04 to 11.10 upgrade over SSH on a remote server, and it says "The GRUB boot loader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present". I'm confused because according to fdisk NONE of the partitions are bootable!! Cold someone please give ma a hand on what is safe to do? Should I mark sda and sdb as bootable in fdisk and install grub on both? (I also have md1, and md2).15:22
wingotmetasansana: The local passphrase prevents the private key being used by someone without the passphrase.15:22

metasansanawingot: yes every reboot15:23
wingotMasters: Have fun.15:23
wingotmetasansana: Well, my recommendation is to setup an account whose whole purpose is that copy. Lock down it's perms on both sides so it can only perform the copy. You should even be able to define it without a shell.15:23

RobHuI'm doing the 11.04 to 11.10 upgrade over SSH on a remote server, and it says "The GRUB boot loader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present". I'm confused because according to fdisk NONE of the partitions are bootable!! Cold someone please give ma a hand on what is safe to do? Should I mark sda and sdb as bootable in fdisk and install grub on both? (I also have md1, and md2).15:34

UmeaboyHi!17:44
virusalso what would be the reason boot repair would just freeze and not load up?17:44
virusthe program itself17:44
l057c0d3r_right..  but apt-get isn't working right eithor..  i tried it..  wont sais building package list ext.. and then just exits17:44
ActionParsnipsightlight: if you installed wine from source, I'd install it via packages, then uninstall it, the compiled files will be removed as the packe system will first overwrite them, then remove them17:44
UmeaboyThere seems to be some sort of system-failure in 11.04.17:44
* l057c0d3r_ oh well.. format like windows and start over17:44
Umeaboy'cause now I can't get adb working the same way as I've done before.17:44

ActionParsnipavani121241: removing metapackages doesn't remove the packages they install, they are hollow nothings17:46

zykotick9!mini17:46
ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD17:46
l057c0d3r_it comes with NOTHING17:46
ActionParsnipavani121241: kernel, drivers, bootloader, basic packaging tools17:47
l057c0d3r_but the required stuff..17:47

avani121241yall if i have any doubts17:47
UmeaboyI think I did.17:47
Demonstratehave you tried not adding a bash command?17:47
l057c0d3r_i loved my gentoo box. but moved to lubuntu  because of synaptic  / apt-get  being much faster  and i mean MUCH faster17:47
avani121241linky any1?17:47
UmeaboyNope.17:47
Demonstrateand just using the folder instead?17:47
=== falkaling is now known as Zizek
UmeaboyNope.17:48
DemonstrateHow bad do you want Bash?17:48
merlin_anyone can help with starting a boot repair. my linux loads up only, and not windows 7 even though they are on separate drives17:48
ActionParsnipavani121241: you can then install only what you need, or just use it to instal from the repos ;). If you want a tiny OS, install mini then install openbox and lightdm. Will give you a super light OS17:48
Demonstratebecause all that bash command does is remove the need to navigate to the ploatform-tools/ folder17:48
UmeaboyRight.17:48
avani121241hmmmm, Action can u gimme a link17:48
avani121241?17:48

DemonstrateUmeaboy: my guess is your path is wrong17:49
avani12124110.1017:49
l057c0d3r_usc isnt working because aptitude is not working17:49

UmeaboyDemonstrate: Here's what locate adb gives me: http://pastebin.com/YFF4a8MT17:50
ActionParsnipavani121241: you do realise maveric is EOL when Precise is released in April?17:50
l057c0d3r_or find out what is causing aptitude to not work17:50
ActionParsnipavani121241: which arch do you want?17:50
zykotick9l057c0d3r_: seeing as Ubuntu doesn't even ship aptitude by default anymore, i don't think that's your issue17:50
avani121241can you elaborate a little more?17:50
l057c0d3r_err not aptitude but the apt-get17:50
DemonstrateUmeaboy: it should only give you the direction to adb.sh or adb.exe whatever it is.17:51
ActionParsnipl057c0d3r_: can you run:  sudo apt-get update   and pastebin the output.17:51
avani121241i386 arch17:51

colin969Is there a way to manually install drivers for Windows, via Ubuntu?18:04
LjLcolin969: i really doubt it.18:04

cvancevirus how are you determining that your network connection is slow?18:04
ActionParsnipnafcool: if you look in /etc/apt/sources.list   you will see 'src-deb' repos as well as the 'deb' binary ones18:04
UmeaboyI have the rights.18:04

merlin_i get an error: nvidia: wrong # of devices in RAID set nvidia_afdiaeja 1/2 on /dev/sda18:04
DemonstrateUmeaboy, so even when you're in the folder that has adb, it refuses to run?18:05

UmeaboyYes.18:05
nafcoolcan I do so?18:05
UmeaboyHold on.18:05

scarleomerlin_: check this thread, lots of useful information: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180285418:06
cvanceUmeaboy: adb actually will run a server, if you attempted to run adb without root privileges it would have started the server with the permissions of your current user. Run sudo ./adb --kill-server18:06
Umeaboyhttp://pastebin.com/c44vC5H118:06
LjLcolin969: are you the one who previously couldn't boot at all because of the video card or something?18:06
cvanceUmeaboy: then run sudo adb --start-server18:06
Demonstratetry what cvance said18:06
LjLcolin969: if so, i'd start thinking whether your video card's hardware is misbehaving.18:07
Demonstrate./adb: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")18:07
Demonstratethat means that its working umeaboy18:07
colin969LjL, that seemed to be GRUB Giving me that, I can memorise boot order, So I can select OS18:07
mang0ActionParsnip: Or, would updating to 11.10 fix it? Using the command it tells me in TTY - get release upgrade thingy18:07
merlin_yeah unfortunately SCARLEO, i have been on there all day18:07
LjLcolin969: still, if *both* Windows and Ubuntu don't seem to work correctly with your video card...18:07
colin969LjL, It runs perfectly besides that, SO Confused18:07
colin969LjL, Ubuntu 2D Does...18:08
ActionParsnipmang0: possibly, yes18:08
LjLcolin969: right, Ubuntu 2D doesn't use the more advanced capabilities of your video card18:08
scarleomerlin_: so did you try "You need to run windows repairs to restore the bootmgr & BCD files. Then grub will find it as a bootable partition." ?18:08
Umeaboyhttp://pastebin.com/AVEWusZA18:08
colin969LjL, Windows doesnt have a similair option18:08
LjLcolin969: have you tried running some 3D thing, like just glxgears, and seeing if they work properly?18:08
cvanceUmeaboy sorry remembered wrong syntax, sudo ./adb kill-server18:08
cvanceUmeaboy and sudo ./adb start-server18:09
colin969LjL, That come default, or shall I sudo?18:09
nafcoolcan somebody point me to the source file which contains intructions for automatic search in Nautilus18:09
nafcoolplease18:09
LjLcolin969: not sure18:09
merlin_I can't get anything to run, boot repair. I tried reinstalling linux, and im fed up.18:09
DemonstrateUmeaboy:do you see adb is working?18:09
merlin_best thing i heard so far is repair disk and it wont continue operation18:09
Demonstrateyou just have to run it now18:09
Demonstratewith root privilages18:09
mang0ActionParsnip: And I should probably upgrade to 11.10 anyway, as support is going to be dropped for 11.04 soon, is it not? Just to clarify, upgrading will not wipe my files and apps will it, only upgrade the actual OS?18:09
GuajiR0sup18:09
cvanceDemonstrate: I gave him the wrong syntax for the adb server, I think he's running the commands again18:10

cvancevirus do you have two lan connections?18:11
Umeaboyhttp://pastebin.com/wP2MPuWh18:11
viruscvance no i dont18:11
UmeaboySo it doesn't work the same way as before.18:11
Demonstratebecause the bash isnt setup?18:12
cvanceUmeaboy you need to run ./adb because the platform-tools directory isn't in your $PATH variable18:12
Demonstrate^18:12
cvanceUmeaboy: has to be ./adb NOT adb18:12
cvanceUmeaboy run this command without quotes "sudo ./adb kill-server && sudo ./adb start-server"18:13
cvanceUmeaboy then you can pick up doing whatever you and Demonstrate are working on18:13
Umeaboycvance: That worked18:14
Demonstratecvance he just wants to set a bash path so he only has to type "adb" and linux will  recognize the full path.18:14
colin969LjL, GLX Gears works.18:14

Sam86I'd assume there is, some comparative to commandprompt etc.19:09
NoseWalrusI can't get cheese to launch, anyone know what might be wrong?19:10
ActionParsnipSam86: if you wanted a gui, why didn't you install the desktop OS19:10
ActionParsnipGuest37428: add the medibuntu repo and install w32codecs (or w64codecs if you have 64bit OS)19:10

But when I start up ubuntu my ordinary mouse and keyboard doesnt work, it's a razer naga mouse and a Microsoft sidewinder keyboard. If I unplug those and plugin an old mouse and keyboard I can log in to then unplug those and use my primary instead. I don't want it like that since the extra old mouse is also used f19:21

zelozelosgplikespie, there are legal reasons for using, but not nothing the average person can do, and can be wired but are usually use for wireless transmissions20:20
bcjgplikespie: "packet" is not synonymous with wireless comms20:20
gplikespieah, thanks.20:20
urlin2udatruth_, yes,  but you have limitations on partition amounts on a single mbr HD, is the ubuntu in a extended?20:20
urlin2udatruth_, if you did a auto install a swap was made.20:21
datruth_urlin2u: no I've wiped my drive and installing ubuntu onit 11.10 how much swap space is recommended?20:21
datruth_no I created the swap in the advanced tab20:21
urlin2udatruth_, equal to the ram.20:21
datruth_gave it 2gb20:21
datruth_oh20:21
guntbertbcj: usually elaborate shell questions get better answers in #bash20:22
datruth_if I have 12gb of ram then I need 12gb of swap space?20:22
bcjguntbert: It's not a shell question, but I'll try there anyway20:22
bcjguntbert: Cheers20:22
urlin2udatruth_, probably not, lets get other opinions here.20:22
datruth_?20:23
trismbcj: why not just: pkg-config --cflags python20:23
Guest15204hello20:23
guntbertdatruth_: only if you want to "supend to disk"20:23
guntbert*suspend20:23
datruth_guntbert: what does that mean?20:23
bcjtrism: Because that doesn't work20:24
* datruth_ prepares to re-install for the 3rd time20:24
=== Guest15204 is now known as KreaTor
datruth_i have 12gb of ram so should I have a 12gb of swap partition?20:24
trismbcj: then install python-dev20:25
urlin2udatruth_, you can resize=shrink the ubuntu partition using gparted on the live cd for more swap space.20:25
KreaTorsorry, but is there a topic on "IRC server"?20:25
guntbertdatruth_: suspend/hibernate means to power down the system but to keep the system state in memory/on disk so that you can return to where you were working rather quick20:25
bcjtrism: I don't have root privileges on the system20:25
datruth_urlin2u: ahh ok that might save a re-format-reinstall20:25
fabiobikim using the dd comand20:25
urlin2udatruth_, yeah20:25
datruth_guntbert: gotcha20:25
fabiobikbut i dont see any output20:25
bcjtrism: Plus installing something to find a path is rather heavy-handed when all I want is the right escape character20:26
fabiobikIm using dd comand but i dont see any output20:26
datruth_alrighty I'll extend the swap space after install finishes20:26
fabiobikits that normal?20:26
JustMozzyhi guyse. this is very strange. I am on two machines and ssh'd to a server. on one I try sudo and it works fine, on the other I try it and it doesn't take the password. I ssh'd with the same user20:26

MonkeyDust!netsplit| RokcStar_21:19
ubottuRokcStar_: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit21:19
Seveasmang0, 'cause it looks like you're missing some things and screenlets is just spamming your error log so getting rid of it should at least make that cleaner21:19
sstaabhinavmehta: okay.  It's not enough just to HAVE a proxy.  You have to tell the tools where it is so they can use it.21:19

afeijohow can I create an 50mb file for upload tests?21:20
Seveasmang0, given that awn gives you most errors besides screenlets, just getting rid of those may fix your problem21:21
MonkeyDustafeijo  download an iso21:21
sstaabhinavmehta: http://pastebin.com/1pXmE8iQ is the line in my /etc/apt/apt.conf for the proxy.  In my case it's squid, not apt-cacher, but it shouldn't matter.  The IP/port in your case are probably different though21:21

Seveasafeijo, use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/zero if you want 50mb of random data instead of NULL bytes21:22
urlin2uHebusLeTroll, 1 gig I figured, not sure why you loose stuff some suggest 1 1/2 times ram, not sure if that is the answer just guessing.21:22
mang0Seveas: What is the package name for AWN? So I can remove it...21:22
afeijoSeveas, perfect, thanks!21:23
urlin2uHebusLeTroll, you could set up a usb thumb as a swap for testing this rather then resizing your partition.21:23

sstaHebusLeTroll: unless you're short of diskspace, having lots of swap doesn't hurt anything.  You probably don't NEED lots of swap, but it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it21:23

After restarting and logging again, I realized that all my configs were gone, they were all resetted to default. I've tried to change my wallpaper back, but doesn't happen21:33

PsyForceI have been having a problem lately with 11.10 logging out instead of shutting down. When I press the power button or go to the menu and then tell the system to shut down, it often goes to the login screen instead. I haven't found any bug reports that are the same, though there are a few people in the forums that have described the same problem. The system *will* shut down fine from the login screen though. Any suggestions?21:41
urlin2uPsychoholic, using the power button is a g=hard shutdown not used except in an emergency, use the button in the top panel21:42

_Domjongbergs as a matter of fact yes though it compiles.. so i don't see why it works in pinguy and not ubuntu or mint. PM ?23:24
_Domalmoxarife how do i do that exactly, i'm not familiar with linux ?23:24
benuphoenixfman23:  Like root partition23:24
fman23benuphoenix: oh then, put mount point / on the usb drive and /home on the hdd.  but that setup is non-optimal.  the usb drive is much slower than the hard drive23:24
fman23and if the usb drive is removed, ur comp cant boot23:24
jongbergsdatruth_: install gnome-shell, in the terminal sudo apt-get install gnome-shell23:25
robin0800! nounity | datruth_23:25
ubottudatruth_: Ubuntu 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 !classic23:25

almoxarife_Dom: no idea23:25
