[00:00] mang0_: what was the original problem, by the way.. gnome-shell running slow? [00:00] its mostly called Geforce 7150 [00:00] hicham: hit the top left Ubuntu icon and search for their name [00:00] 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. [00:01] alkafoo, thanx, but isn't there any map? [00:01] anyone know how to make sound in unity remember your mic instead of reverting to front mic input [00:01] Is there a way to retrieve the installation history when installing ubuntu from a cd? [00:01] hicham: I'm not sure with Unity [00:01] I'm gonna reinstall and just keep all default settings [00:01] someone else will know [00:01] ohai every one ^^ [00:01] oh alka, should I make a swap partition, or let the installer do whatever it wants? [00:01] oii === will is now known as Guest68390 [00:02] Masters: either should be fine [00:02] how big should it be? laptop had 4GB of ram [00:02] and you can reconfigure it to a certain extent after installation [00:02] someone here who know something about vlc media streams ? ( video on demand ) [00:02] Masters: 4GB should do nicely [00:02] perre`: something? Yes [00:02] Slart: AHA! Gnome-session might have something to do with it >:D [00:02] 4gb of swap spacE? got it [00:03] mang0_: 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 gnome [00:03] someone else? [00:03] Slart: Just went back to the site, and read waht they said: sudo apt-get install gnome-session, sudo apt-get install gnome-shell [00:03] Slart: That might explain the weird mix. [00:03] can i come to a private chat alkafoo ? talks easier [00:03] mang0_: it's possible that ubuntu uses something other than gnome-session.. I'm not sure though [00:03] adi111: its loading glx drivers, i thought those were intel, not sure though [00:03] Slart: Let me uninstall gnome-session, and we'll see what happens? No harm trying I suppose [00:04] mang0_: I've got gnome-session installed as well.. and I'm running plain ubuntu, with unity [00:04] FLeiXiuS, so what is your goal? [00:04] or always wondered [00:04] Slart: Weird.... [00:04] should swap partition be primary or logical partition? [00:04] ok so what can i do? [00:04] urlin2u, I have a preseeds file that isn't running a late_command property and I want to know why its failing. [00:04] mang0_: lets not go uninstall vital system stuff without at least checking around a bit =) [00:04] Slart: Well, I'll give it a go. If not, I've gotta sleep, and carry on tomorrow, it's late. (early!) [00:05] FLeiXiuS, ah no clue here. [00:05] Slart: I don't think gnome-session is vital, as I just installed it [00:05] slyguy === Rene is now known as Guest76461 [00:05] im so lost [00:06] mang0_: oh. it wasn't installed before you started messing with gnome-shell? [00:06] nikita_, whats the problem? [00:06] mang0_: sleep or coffee.. one of the two is required for solving computer issues =) [00:06] I've never seen the room so full before ! ! ! [00:07] How can I override my wired eithernet connection with my wireless when ubuntu boots up it configure the wired first and forgets about the wireless. I tried setting it up manually to no evail. [00:07] Slart: Going to restart, bear with me... [00:07] Masters: I don't think it matters.. I use primary but I'm usually only using one or two partitions per hard drive [00:07] hello, i need help with "make" [00:08] Palestine: ? [00:08] Palestine: what do you want to know? [00:08] Guest76461: change the setting in network-manager' for eth0 to 'not' auto [00:08] Guest76461: I'm not on a Ubuntu machine right now, but try digging for a "connect automatically" setting for the wired network.

[00:14] Masters: nope, install 'wine' [00:14] Slart: I've gotta sleep now. I can boot into gnome-shell fine, but it's uber slow. Don't know if that's to do with gnome-shell or not. I'll have to continue this tomorrow :/ [00:14] thats it? [00:14] wow it's gotten alot better [00:14] mang0: do that.. hope you get it fixed [00:14] I haven't touched Linux in years [00:14] Masters: pretty much, the rest is wine related, like all the crashes [00:15] diesch works thank u :) [00:15] Slart: Thanks, me too. If not, I'll have to boot into LiveCD, back up my data, and do a fresh install. So much work for such a petty thing grr [00:15] :P [00:15] diesch: how did you know it was that specific lib?

[01:05] What the heck is going on? [01:05] So with the Driver problems im having with my awful dell integrated GPU. I wonder if because my original OS was a 32 bit Vista should i have used the 32 bit Ubuntu? and is that perhaps the source of all my GPU issues? [01:05] haux: cool theme bro [01:05] haux: you need to be a little more specific please [01:05] What theme? These are default settings. [01:05] ah [01:05] Im still having no luck getting ubuntu to recognize the wireless it does on my laptop but not my desktop. Does having an external usb adapter have anything to do with it. It boots fine in windows. [01:05] This is how it installed. You can't read anything. [01:06] haux: try adjusting the theme [01:06] anytime the computert has to do even the simplest graphics 3d rendering it fails [01:07] Changing the theme doesn't do anything useful. [01:07] ive searched and found drivers online but they are all for ubuntu 9.x and such its just an old gpu and wont work with this os or linux [01:07] I was told that Gnome3 is buggy... but this is just ridiculous [01:08] Greetings, I'm trying to install vmware-tools in an Ubuntu guest, and the config script is telling me I need gcc, binutils, make, and kernel sources. I have all installed, yet it acts as if one of them isn't. Thoughts? TIA [01:10] Guest76461: Yeah... I'm not surprised... I've tried myself like 5 adapters and got tired, but if you have 20$ to spare there's one I know works out of the box in ubuntu: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833166056 [01:11] Where are repos for Ubuntu ARM (OMAP3 specifically) [01:11] So, nobody here has ever seen this before?

[01:21] fellayaboy: M$ does not want you to run Linux so they scrap the MBR when Winbloze is installed [01:21] fellayaboy: seeing as ubuntu (and other gnu/linux) is trivial to install from USB, perhaps you should be asking in ##windows [01:22] all i want is a usb multiboot loader where i can install linux and windows 7 from it once i configure it [01:22] my HP 630 laptop isn't recognising the SD card slot; is there any reason this could be ubuntu's fault [01:22] fellayaboy: also, if you just want to play with it and see if it's good to you, you should run it from USB or CD in live mode, then no harm done to your conf [01:22] http://oi43.tinypic.com/6sz7go.jpg [01:22] ive used multiboot system and unetbootin but they cant set up the usb to install windows from === bc_ is now known as [-] [01:22] Hasn't fixed anything. === jack is now known as Guest96588 [01:23] how to convert mp3 to ogg codec ?

[01:35] yeah sorry trying to do to many things [01:35] master should be the one where i m running the OS right? so no [01:35] slave [01:36] ok azariah4 plug in the ethernet [01:36] ya gebb [01:36] and yes gebbione thats what i ment [01:36] Masters: 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%3AF [01:36] Master is usually your MAIN hard drive [01:36] slaves are usually CD rom drives and such [01:36] see how come you guys got what i ment [01:36] or a data drive if it's on the same ribbon [01:36] yea i have that drive as a slave then [01:36] Does "install a minimal system" include any GUI or is it command line only? [01:37] alien2050, so there's an extension that looks like default? [01:37] master and slave? huh? that is from the IDE days and not applicable to SATA? [01:37] right jason [01:37] skrewt: in what context? Only mini and server come without GUI i default (i believe) [01:37] gebbione 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 them [01:37] gone are the days of bickering about masters and slaves [01:37] ide's more than most [01:37] zykotick9, i just want a command line only install [01:37] back [01:38] so um compiz wont start [01:38] and i cant remember how i did it the last time [01:38] skrewt: use the mini iso then [01:38] !mini [01:38] The 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/MinimalCD [01:38] haux: yeah I think it's somwhere around /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme [01:38] tech936: reformatting? [01:38] zykotick9, what does the other option do? [01:38] yh [01:38] Compiz (Core) - Fatal: couldn't open display [01:38] Hi. I have a computer, with 2 users: User A is logged in through the console/gui/desktop. Then from bash I su to User B. How can I get User B to be able to run an X-application? [01:38] it can be moved (renamed) and replaced with another theme that suits best [01:38] wooohoo i did it! i installed grub from scratch [01:39] $DISPLAY is :0.0 [01:39] haux: I think it needs the same name though, i.e. theme or default [01:39] how do i use that ? compiz --display :0.0 [01:39] wabash u runing though ssh [01:39] im gonna put grub on everything [01:39] I 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 file. Does anybody what is creating it?# [01:39] cause i know ssh is on the login to be able to run x [01:39] tech936: impossible where do i move the data to ... no alternative looks like a lame way for linux to handle ntfs [01:39] is ssh -l -x ip [01:39] skrewt: what "other option"? [01:39] tech936: No. [01:39] wabash: how use that [01:39] "install minimal system" [01:39] from the install CD [01:40] Aliv3: Say again? [01:40] never mind then [01:40] lol [01:40] That directory is empty [01:40] skrewt: what CD are you using? the regular LiveCD has that option? [01:40] tech936: look, this should be pretty simple. Is it like an X config thing? [01:40] wabash: how to use --display :0.0 [01:40] I dont know? lol its the same Ubuntu CD i did it from the last time [01:40] with compiz [01:40] yh [01:41] Wait, nevermind [01:41] Aliv3: Ok, tell me more. If I run the command that way, it should specify where to display? [01:41] if u got questions diolog msg me [01:41] wabash: oh nvm i thought you were talking to me when you said the display thing [01:41] Aliv3: Yes. Tell me more. [01:42] Compiz 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 messages [01:44] Aliv3: 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 heard [01:44] oh so what is my solution [01:44] anyone tryed ubuntu's apparent rival blackbuntu [01:44] how do I use metacity [01:45] anyone good with wine mind helping me out? [01:45] tech936: dont [01:45] Aliv3: I also am waiting for it to happen, cause I badly need the transparency from compiz... but anyways... [01:45] Ok, so anyone here know about X and xhost? [01:45] heat about it the other day though a friend [01:45] laughed a bit at the idear but now i just have to know [01:45] Alive3: you tryed it [01:45] **aliv3 [01:46] tech936: havent tried it [01:46] alien2050: so what is my solution, unity is broke [01:46] If you run rm -rf foo is it possible that rm would remove things outside the directory foo? [01:46] i downloaded a copy of the iso [01:47] aliv3: if you're running 11.10, they say you can go back to unity, haven't tried though... otherwise just don't run compiz [01:47] Anyone know what this means when installing a package? dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-installation script: Exec format error [01:47] alien2050: unity ( gnome 3 ) won't start w/o it === Guest_ is now known as recur [01:48] unless i can get my interface back some other way, im on the system changing threw programs with alt tab unable to open new applications, i have chrome firefox smuxi terminal and gedit [01:48] aliv3: unity works in 2D mode now, if you want 3D (compiz) you may have to reinstall although I believe anything is fixable in Linux; you might need to check out forums to help you out or maybe someone knows by heart... but I haven't done it. [01:49] so what, relog? [01:49] brb [01:49] wait i cant log out.. [01:50] help the best site or help on over clocked an AMD system thanks ??? [01:50] aliv3: 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 :) [01:51] aliv3: by integrated, I mean it can be installed through package manager really easily [01:52] aliv3: so you'll have look around... something like http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1859809 [01:53] aliv3: but there are better tutorials out there...

I'm using a Dell Inspiron Laptop [02:46] So.. guest i will need to reinstall ubuntu :/ i just want to reset all audio settings and stay with the default just like ubuntu was installed. [02:46] urlin2u, not found it in startup applications [02:47] So.. guess* i will need to reinstall ubuntu :/ i just want to reset all audio settings and stay with the default just like ubuntu was installed. [02:47] anyone here using backtrack 5? it runs on ubuntu 10.04 i beleave [02:47] GuajiR0, not supported [02:47] NewB you should not need to reinstall, what was your problem? [02:47] GuajiR0, see the bt support channel [02:47] ok [02:47] sorry [02:47] #backtrack-linux GuajiR0 [02:48] GuajiR0: depends if you connected to freenode using SSL :) [02:48] NewB: so just do it then [02:48] NewB: what's the issue? [02:49] NewB: point click click reset audio done [02:49] dns53: playing movies, audio voices where very low... couldn't eaven hear them.... i saw that installing alsa mixer i could raise or lower volume on each individual channel. Did that but didn't work. Rigth now i can't see anything in the sounds settings and now sound is working [02:49] I think NewB is a chinese boy,lol [02:50] fanzhen: Does that matter? [02:50] fanzhen: i'm not chinese but english is not my first languaje... also... i was a windows user and have a few weeks using ubuntu [02:50] phix: where i do that ? [02:50] NewB in Chinese means cow xxx... hha [02:51] fanzhen, thats enough [02:51] NewB: It is a pretty good system hey :) Ubuntu that is, yes it is different than windows so you need to read to find out the differences, but besides that quite a nice system ;) [02:51] NewB i would try installing and using pavucontrol [02:51] NewB: in the system preferences [02:51] NewB: under sound [02:51] yes or use pavucontrol, that is also a good app [02:52] fanzhen: so... because i have a few days using ubuntu/linux is funny that i am a lame? this sh*t is open source and if u re using it at least do something not muking of the new users! [02:52] NewB, lets move on please [02:53] sorry , just make a jok. [02:53] sumtimes ya just need to let it roll off ur back [02:53] phix you still there? [02:53] fanzhen, wrong place for that [02:53] ok ,i see [02:53] phix: sounds settings now is empy.. there's no hardware to select [02:53] Masters: I sure am [02:54] dns53: let me try that...... let u know [02:54] NewB: ok what sound card you got? [02:54] does Linux have a Deivce Manager equivilant? [02:54] Masters: yes and no [02:55] Masters: depends what you are trying to do [02:55] phix: integrated in mobo (msi 880g-e45) [02:55] just to check if all drivers are installed, or if theres anything that won't work [02:55] like my laptop has a fingerprint scanner I want to get it working [02:55] but I don't know if linux even supports it [02:56] Masters: ok lspci and lsusb tells you all of the devices linux can see [02:56] whats the difference between them? [02:56] who can help me with my bluetooth problem? [02:56] Masters: there is a GUI version of it too, it would be in the systems section when you click on menu button [02:56] NewB it could have done something like switch to using the hdmi for your monitor for sound [02:56] lspci shows PCI devices and lsusb shows USB devices [02:56] ok I can lsusb [02:56] Masters: yeah the name of the commands are pretty self explanitory [02:56] the bluetooth start automatically when computer boot. [02:56] and the fingerprint scanners shows up [02:57] but will ubuntu support it for logging in? [02:57] Masters: I am not sure if there is a GUI to set it up, but if you install the correct PAM module and edit /etc/pam.d/gdm you can make it work [02:58] Masters: you should google it, there are howtos available on doing that [02:58] I am trying [02:58] If the hardware is getting recognized and the drivers are there...you just need the essential software. [02:58] Masters: ubuntu finger print scanner login perhaps [02:59] ^ [02:59] can ya look at this: tell me if ya think it will work: http://lionlix.wordpress.com/2009/10/12/enabling-finger-print-login-in-ubuntu-linux/ [02:59] dns53: before i could see 2 hardwares... one that said 7.1 HD Audio and another ATI RS HDMI now i only see the ATI RS HDMI .... [02:59] i know alot of guides are sometimes outdated [02:59] Masters: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinkFinger https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/session-fingerprint.html [03:00] Masters: looks like it is supported in 11.04 [03:00] Masters: I assume you are using 11.10? [03:01] I'm using the most up to date version, whichever you download off the site [03:01] Masters: read the 2nd link I gave you [03:01] I am phix [03:01] good [03:01] I wish you luck :) [03:01] tells me to goto my username on the upper right [03:02] Masters: ah and you are using unity arnt you [03:02] but I disabled the guest session, which disables the username in the upper right [03:02] unity? [03:02] Masters: the "task bar" is on the left hand side? === jack is now known as Guest48323 === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:02] yes [03:02] yes, that is unity [03:03] does anyone know where i can buy a laptop under $200 dollars [03:03] it'd whatever came with ubuntu [03:03] click on the menu button on the left hand side and start typing in finger or log and see what the results are [03:03] user accouintd pops up [03:03] accounts* [03:04] Masters: well ubuntu 11.10 by default uses unity, but you can install gnome-session-fallback and use that to have the same behaviour as previous versions of ubuntu (classic mode is what they call it) [03:04] ok I see where it says to press the unlock button [03:04] ok [03:04] says I need to authenticate, but it's not accepting my password [03:04] nm I'm being an idiot... [03:05] says there should be an option to enable fingerprint login, but its not there [03:06] i am on 11.10; i added another keyboard layout because i am in south america right now. [03:06] i got a little widget in my toolbar that allowed me to easily switch between them [03:06] but after i reset my computer; the widget went away [03:06] and i don't see how to add things to the top anymore; since unity [03:06] sorry for being a pain phix [03:07] gdoteof one sec [03:08] Gdoteof go to system settings hardware section clikc keyboarsd switch to layouts tab click the add button [03:08] Demonstrate: mmk === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:08] click keyboard* and switch to layouts tab* [03:08] sorry typed too fast. [03:08] when more then one is enabled you get the language widget.. [03:09] Demonstrate: its not true. thats what i did [03:09] i have more than one enabled [03:09] and i *had* the widget [03:09] then ireset my computer [03:09] i stillhave more than one enabled, but no widget [03:09] odd.. let me see === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:11] Maybe unity reset your panels? [03:11] Demonstrate: no idea. i don't even know what that means [03:11] there should be a way to manually add the widget i'd think.. [03:11] well the panel is the bar on top and the bottom. [03:12] try dragging the keyboard into the panel [03:12] Demonstrate: hrm. i have nothing on the bottonm. i have on the left a panel [03:12] it has all the applications or whatever [03:12] then along the top there is a panel; it has the time and the menu of whatever window is focused [03:13] Demonstrate: the keyboard from the system settings? it does not drag [03:13] alright let me see if i can google a couple of solutions, Unity has been reseting my panels aswell i switched and disabled unity all together. [03:13] When I change the audio output connector from Analog Speakers to Analog Headphones, the mute notification LED turns on. Is there a way to stop this from happening? [03:14] why nto use ubut uversion that is still supported and doesnt use unity (eg 10.04) [03:14] Demonstrate: yeah i was thinking of doing that. it seems to be the direction things are going so i thought i'd get used to it [03:14] what's the best ubuntu distro to install if I'm planning on using openbox? [03:14] Demonstrate: i used xmonad before; and exclusively for a while but i fail at connecting to wireless without a widget [03:14] Gdoteof read this http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17508/add-keyboard-input-language-to-ubuntu/ === warfaren_ is now known as warfaren [03:14] Anyway to increase the border size so that i more easily resize windows with a blasted touchpad? [03:14] it tells you how to set shortcuts to change the language [03:15] where would I find the list of default packages for my ubuntu distro? [03:15] gdoteof have you tried, using NDISwrapper? [03:15] johtso: server? then build from that if can live with command line for about 15 mins [03:15] acerimmer Ubuntu software center === AndrewX192_ is now known as AndrewX192 [03:15] johtso: also not ubuntu but debian there is http://crunchbanglinux.org/ [03:15] VIVE WINDOWS !!! [03:15] gdoteof are you using linux drivers for your wireless network? [03:16] aeon-ltd: yeah, just been having headaches with debian so looking to switch back to ubuntu [03:16] Demonstrate: i tried a lot and failed. maybe i will pick it up again eventually. i don't have so much tiem to fight with my desktop right now [03:16] Mantaure, ubuntu support question? [03:16] Demonstrate: no i am using the proprietary ones [03:16] aeon-ltd: what I need is something ubuntu based that looks as good and is as light weight as crunchbang [03:16] gdoteof the options in keyboard and language, lets you set ctrl+shift and key combonations like that to change language configureations [03:17] phix, found this guide: http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/04/get-your-fingerprint-reader-to-work-in.html [03:17] gonna see if it worked [03:17] Demonstrate: yeah i saw that and forgot to mention [03:17] i have done that [03:17] It doesnt work? [03:17] but its not working [03:17] either [03:17] :O [03:17] maybe i need to reset my unity session though [03:18] Try that, I hate unity it's a pain, but for beginners the "search" function like windows vista/7 is very helpful. [03:18] dam no luck [03:18] johtso: lubuntu is openbox iirc but it has a lot of other stuff too so they call it lxde [03:18] wait nm it worked [03:18] asked for password first then asked for fingerprint [03:18] i love how i am trying to type an accented e and 20 minutes later i am restarting my unity session >.< [03:18] >_> [03:19] Masters: ok good luck [03:19] thought it would only have to put in my password [03:19] but it asks for pass, then print [03:19] how do i set up ssl on xchat? [03:19] aeon-ltd: ah, I'll give it another look. the screenshots section of the website was broken so I moved on.. [03:19] test [03:19] wb gdoteof did it work? [03:20] lol Demonstrate . the widget game back [03:20] ! [03:20] Masters: heh, I am sure that is configurable, but you do need to enter in your password to unlock your password store (this is where passwords and wireless keys are stored that you tell ubuntu to remmeber) [03:20] ctrl+capslock does not work [03:20] w/e [03:20] Oh the irony, of it all gdoteof glad atleast it work. [03:20] ééé [03:20] does the widget atleast work? [03:20] GuajiR0 there is a check box in the server settings, not sure if freenode has ssl qorking [03:20] I would like to use webcam but the LED turned off, on Dell Inspiron Laptop using Ubuntu 11.10 [03:20] si :) [03:20] pues, buenas suertes gdoteof! [03:21] GuajiR0: The only advantage of using SSL on an IRC channel is if everyone on the IRC channel is using SSL too, otherwise it defeats the purpose :) [03:21] josephseraos, turned off when, and did it ever work? [03:21] Demonstrate: thanks for the help; ciao [03:21] aeon-ltd: oh god, what a horrible task bar.. I suppose it shouldn't be too hard to switch it to tint2 should it? [03:22] de nada. [03:23] Is this channel for support? [03:23] tehB3NJ1E, ubuntu support yes [03:25] I love Xubuntu. :D [03:25] anyone have any idea on "ralink 2480" usb wifi adapter support? [03:25] Okay. I installed Ubuntu 11.10 about an hour ago. So far, everything works pretty good except for 2 things. My dual-monitor set up is very glitchy, but I can love with it. The real problem is that the touchpad is not working. I am running the 64-bit version, on a Toshiba Satellite L655... === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:25] on windows xp my usb adapter just says 802 [03:25] 802.11 b/g/n wireless usb adapter [03:25] and the adapter it's self has no branding. [03:25] I have heard dual monitors do not work well with Ubuntu. [03:26] Chrisco it depends on your graphics card, I dual monitor just fine.. [03:26] chrisco97: I disagree [03:26] meh. It's glitchy, but it works [03:26] That is what I heard, I have never tried. ;) [03:26] I had initial problems with resolutions but it was just a bump in the road for dual monitors [03:27] !list [03:27] This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [03:27] But my touchpad is not working. I have a USB mouse now, but when I try to move my laptop around, I will need the touchpad. [03:27] oh! tehb3nj1e [03:27] I had a similar problem you have to edit a bootstrap paramater im just not exacly sure it was over 2 years ago. [03:28] i added a line to grub and touchpad worked [03:28] See, the thing is that it worked back in 10.10, and even 11.04... [03:29] Honsetly, I miss 10.10. I really dislike this new Unity desktop... [03:29] hmm, well what laptop are you on? [03:29] First 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, and [03:29] yeah unity is horrible, and a lot of things broke on 10.11 [03:29] Toshiba Satellite L655 [03:29] TehB3nj1E did it break when you updated [03:29] or did you install 10.11 seperately [03:30] i had problems with xchat , i had to download xchat for gnome [03:30] hi === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:31] right click the server name in edit backspace and retype the ser click connect and close [03:31] patriceok1: might want to consider chatzilla - it's a firefox plugin [03:31] I 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... [03:32] So, you broke 11.04, and 11.10 is broken from the start, awesome well im reading a couple of articles here see if i can figure something out [03:32] selina2: see chatzilla plugin for firefox [03:33] ok i will but my xchat for gnome is working good so far [03:33] take a look at this tehB3NJ1E http://askubuntu.com/questions/66907/touchpad-not-working-on-msi-u130-after-login-in [03:34] It's like a super device manager for ubuntu. [03:34] "like" [03:34] acerimmer: thanks for the suggestion. I wasn't enamoured of ChatZilla in Windows...I also have a thing about using browser format to open pdf files, etc as well--I like a little separation of icons in my tray, as it were.... [03:34] i8 === dns_ is now known as dns53 [03:35] Patriceok1 did you try xchat for gnome? [03:35] does xChat for gnome offer support for MSN adn AIM and check hotmail inbox? [03:35] patriceok1: re: you can modify the firefox settings to open pdf as you wish. Since gnome is going away soon, I made the switch. Works rather well IMHO. [03:35] no [03:36] back.. my problem was no sound did this: "sudo alsa force-reload" "sudo aptitude reinstall linux-generic". But!!! ;P in the speaker on top of the window (i have ubuntu 11.10, the one that is next to the clock) i can't control the volumen neather with the keyboard shorcuts... is there a way to fix that ? [03:37] back.. my problem was no sound did this: "sudo alsa force-reload" "sudo aptitude reinstall linux-generic". Work after that....... But!!! ;P in the speaker on top of the window (i have ubuntu 11.10, the one that is next to the clock) i can't control the volumen neather with the keyboard shorcuts... is there a way to fix that ? [03:37] NewB: can you use pavucontrol [03:37] acerimmer: I meant I like pdf files to open in it's own adobe type window, not within FF, and I like my chat account list to open in its wn space, not inside/alongside FF browser [03:37] Anyone experianced in wireless for ubuntu? I can NEVER setup my wireless drivers in ubuntu 11.10 ndiswrapper refuses to load the files correctly, and i was able to do it fine on 10.10 [03:38] Ublunttu: no. It says Connection to pulseaudio failed. Automatic retry in 5s [03:39] Ublunttu: from terminal says: E: [pulseaudio] conf-parser.c: [/etc/pulse/daemon.conf:1] Missing '='. [03:39] patriceok1: exactly. You can direct set FF to open .pdf with adobe/evince/whatever. [03:40] acerimmer: 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] Ublunttu: ** (pavucontrol:4873): DEBUG: Connection failed, attempting reconnect <<--- also that [03:40] Newa: pulseaudio -k or --k I think ? [03:42] patriceok1: like in windows, on ubuntu you can set "open with" [03:42] patriceok1: 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] acerimmer: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. [03:43] patriceok1: clever! [03:43] patriceok1 have you tried using windows programs on ubuntu? WINE can run a lot of applications and if you're familiar with them why not keep using them? [03:44] hi [03:44] if i change a kernel related file like: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part? [03:44] acerimmer: thanks for gnome update. everything since 2004, though is an update to me. ;-p I was given 10.4/lucid with Gimp to try out. I don't know how my friend arrived at the choice of lucid instead of something later...I think earlier didn't run Gimp graphics editor, maybe [03:45] lucid is my favorite ! [03:45] nothing is broken on it lol! [03:45] Demonstrate, perhaps it was given to me because beig lucid has been a lifelong goal of mine.... [03:45] patriceok1: also to note: lucid is Long Term Support and will be supported for 36 months. So you don't HAVE to switch over. [03:46] patriceok1: haha! [03:46] urlin2u, When I put webcam to work, then LED is turned on. When I turn webcam off, then LED turn off too. But I want when webcam is working, LED stay Off [03:47] Someone noticed empathy cant verify ssl certificates? [03:47] josephseraos, I doubt anything can be done there without hacking a file, not a popular need I doubt you will get it done unless you do it yourself. [03:47] It always ask me about certificates that isnt recognizable [03:47] Every time I login to Maverick, I have to load a terminal and "metacity --replace" to get the window manager working. How do I automate it (or "why did it break")? [03:48] if i change a kernel related file like: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part? [03:48] So, someone can tell me how can i debug this and/or where empathy searches for ssl certs? === FlannelKing is now known as Flannel [03:50] Demonstrate and acerimmer: I stress that ALL linux ideas/structure are new within 48 hours to me. I am happy to know of something called WINE and trust it will not affect 16 years sobriety; and just no I am eager to know more of life without the Evil Empire I am on an old HP Pavilion with a 40gig HD that was burning up running basic XP fare, and the sound would never work without static and echo after SP1. It runs at 99F with sound as [03:50] patriceok1: linux vvs. sobriety? I'd hold my bets... [03:51] hey everyone i was wondering how to make the hardware buttons on my macbookpro2,2 work [03:51] for example brightness [03:51] Patriceok1: you'll find WINE to be a big help or a big bust, and there's a database of what runs and what doesnt [03:51] well yes, there's that. But Lucidity has Long Term Support! [03:51] 0;3~/part [03:52] is there something i have to edit in terminal ?? [03:52] i think i solve my problem!! ;P i remove the daemon.conf from /etc/pulse and everything is working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [03:52] So WINE is a partition or it runs within ubuntu? [03:52] patriceok1: 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] it runs inside ubuntu! [03:52] if I do-release-upgrade, will the kernel be changed? [03:52] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:52] does anyone know how to access the registry edit of wine? [03:53] jason404: You'll get a new one, you won't technically change the kernel until you reboot. [03:53] Masters: http://www.winehq.org/docs/wineusr-guide/using-regedit [03:53] patrice no it is a compatibility layer for windows progs [03:53] but not everything works [03:53] Patriceok1 try "sudo apt-get install WINE in terminal [03:53] bazhang, hey mate thanx for ur help now im in ubun [03:53] Flannel: so there is no way to upgrade to oneric without getting a new kernel? that would break things for me, so I would have to leave it then [03:53] nm [03:53] Patriceok1 try "sudo apt-get install wine" [03:54] how can i hide my ip in xchat? [03:54] jason404: Correct. Kernels are part of the things that are updated. [03:54] most small scale applications work and this site here tells you all that have been documented to work or not to work http://www.winehq.org/ [03:54] ubuntu [03:54] distro [03:54] Flannel: is there any way to check exactly which kernel will be installed? [03:54] acerimmer: 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] patriceok1: 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 partition [03:55] !help [03:55] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [03:55] !patience [03:55] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [03:55] jason404: There's a variety of ways, but this one is probably the simplest: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/linux-generic [03:55] !ubuntu [03:55] Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com [03:55] please stop spamming ubottu it scrolls the conversations too fast. [03:56] sorry [03:56] patriceok1: stay with 10.04 - LTS releases benefit from special attention to making sure they work. Interim releases, like 10.10 could be considered more cutting edge and experimental. Not what you want to run your daily work from. [03:56] Flannel: but there are so many different kernel builds, how dan it be that simple? [03:56] uname -r to chek kernel number [03:56] how can i connect to irc via the tor network proxy? [03:56] :\ didnt wana be a part bust sorry ;o [03:56] acerimmer: so WINE is like the Windows for Mac thingie. Cool. There is nothing other than perhaps Win Live Mail that I could not replace. I am a gal of humble tech needs. Shoes is another story.... [03:56] no patriceok1 [03:56] it's not [03:56] Bootcamp, is entirely diffrent. [03:56] if I'm in a terminal, and I wanna know my full drive path, whats the command? [03:56] ls [03:56] jason404: What do you mean? That lists the package version (which mirrors the kernel version) for oneiric. [03:56] patriceok1: glad you're enjoying ubuntu. [03:56] ls [03:57] or tree [03:57] ls just shows withs in the folder [03:57] not the drive path [03:57] cd .. [03:57] Masters: pwd [03:57] Masters: pwd [03:57] does anyone know how to make the hardware buttons work on a macbook pro 2,2 ? [03:57] if i change a kernel related file like: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part? need help :D [03:57] ty [03:57] patriceok1: wallpaper for you. http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs8/i/2005/283/a/f/Linux_tan_fanart__Ubuntu_by_juzo_kun.jpg [03:57] pwd, it's a mnemonic for "print working directory" [03:57] god it's been to dam long since I've used Linux [03:58] ^ [03:58] patriceok1: there's a series of wallpaper art for linux called "-tan" [03:58] print working directory [03:58] what's a drive path? === omenfiend is now known as PoPpiLLs [03:58] are directories that start with . like .wine hidden folders? [03:58] yes [03:58] basically [03:58] Demonstrate: there are 2 windows thangs for Macs--one is Bootcamp, and that sounds ike the one where you have to reboot the other partition...but there's another where windows for mac programs run inside OSx or watever [03:58] how do I get into them using a gui window? [03:58] how do i hide my identity in xchat [03:58] startx [03:58] lolz [03:59] Masters: in nautilus do Ctrl+H [03:59] Masters, View -> Show Hidden Folders [03:59] Oh, well then yes, Wine is a program inside Linux, that emulates the windows API so things can run on linux [03:59] Flannel: there are fuckton of different kernels for Amazon EC2 AMIs for Ubuntu [03:59] !language | jason404 [03:59] jason404: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [03:59] oh lord [03:59] im trying to change the brightness on my macbook pro 2,2 how do i do that? [03:59] the reason windows apps cant run in unix are because they are windows API specific or have windows specific resources (dlls' etc) [03:59] .... [03:59] WINE reemulates the C drive and registry [03:59] what ubottu said [04:00] and you can even make things work under wine by adding resources yourself. [04:00] sone here who manually compiles the kernel? :) [04:01] I manually compiled my ubuntu source, just cuz im a nerd like that ;) [04:01] WINE dupes windows programs to thinking that it's on Windows, by providing all the facilities that it asks for. But the compatibility is pretty incomplete and the added resource requirements for running it make it bad for many things [04:01] Hi there, I'm trying to get my Oneiric box to output sound over HDMI, can someone help me? [04:01] i use archlinux, and you? [04:01] Demonstrate, if i change a kernel related file like: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part? need help :D [04:01] tensorpudding, he doesnt need to run fullfledged games on wine, he needs it for small scale applications and it will work perfectly fine for what he needs it. [04:01] i have now 3.1.8 kernel :D [04:02] HDMIaudioguy do you have proprietary drivers? i would use pavucontrol to set it up but the normal gui should work [04:02] HDMIaudioguy: much depends on your hardware and drivers. see this: [04:02] lol [04:02] HDMIaudioguy: much depends on your hardware and drivers. see this: https://encrypted.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=ubuntu%20hdmi%20sound&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CDQQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fkirichkov.com%2F707%2Fgetting-audio-through-hdmi-with-ubuntu-11-04-and-nvidia-ion-chipset%2F&ei=Gv4QT8HmAuSziQLitYWlDQ&usg=AFQjCNEbcdjijBhkAVVSATeK-WGcMf7-TA&cad=rja [04:02] Drivers are stock with 11.10 [04:02] Gerald_ what are you trying to accomplish ;O/ [04:02] sorry pizza came [04:02] tensor [04:03] I don't see a folder menu [04:03] i use archlinux witg gnome shell [04:03] to show hidden folders [04:03] Oh@ usb modem support pre-compiled into the kernel? [04:03] Demonstrate: not to be argumentative, but I'm sure YOU can make things work n WINE by adding them yourself--I'm still crawling through trying to figure out how to copy and paste acerimmer's wallpaper link back there, since it doesn't open when clicked in this chat environment and right click brings no "copy" or "paste" type menu.... [04:03] HDMIaudioguy run "additional drivers" to install proprietary drivers [04:03] Gerald_: are you completely at a bust? [04:03] Patriceok1: I agree, I've made unsupported games run inside WINE [04:03] patriceok1: wait 1 [04:04] I should use Nvidia's proprietary drivers? [04:04] I've unmuted everything in alsamixer, will try the proprietary drivers now. === christian is now known as Guest27589 [04:05] patriceok1: dl from my dropbox: https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Tech%20Support/Ubuntu/Spread%20Ubuntu/Studio%20Art/Studio%20Backgrounds/JKHP_ubuntu1440.jpg?w=0271fa89 [04:05] HDMIaudioguy well is there a hdmi audio device in the sound gui? [04:05] Demonstrate, i need to change those file...and compile the kernel that the change will be effective??? [04:05] dns53: yes. [04:06] I changed to that hardware in audio settings. [04:06] Demonstrate, according to this: http://groups.google.com/group/ti-launchpad/browse_frm/thread/e414bf066fbd1d59/1dacabc8a4f00ab6#1dacabc8a4f00ab6 [04:06] Gerald_: if you've made the changes to the files, compile the kernel and they should be a part of the kernels resources. [04:06] ?kde [04:06] Demonstrate: I was using Pidgin in Windows and am using Pidgin for linux now. I never used IRC before today when it said this is where the ubuntu chat was. I have a couple simple games (alchemy and bejeweled, old versions) that were written for WIN98 and need a patch for XP that s no longer available...could WINE make those run? [04:07] Demonstrate, but how can i only compile this specific part in the kernel? [04:07] Should I remove the nouveau driver before installing the Nvidia one? [04:07] hey guys thanks for all the help getting ubuntu working [04:07] Patriceok1, it doesnt only emulate windows xp. [04:07] what package provides "/usr/bin/xmlrpc" ? [04:07] It emulates the resources it uses. [04:07] HDMIaudioguy: if you use the gui it will take care of all of it for you [04:07] I use mIRC for IRC, on windows, and im using that under WINE. [04:08] Dmole: libxmlrpc-c3-dev [04:08] HDMIaudioguy: installing proprietary nvidia should automagically blacklist nouveau [04:08] jason404: Each version has a history of minor updates, sure, but when you upgrade, you get whatever is currently the latest in the repository. [04:08] Thank you. [04:08] is there any chat clients that do msn and then skype(video) instead of having to run skype along with say pidgin? [04:08] acerimmer: "dropbox"? I just found a right click on Demonstrate's name brings a separate chat window/private chat with D, but don't see any such space with your name [04:09] Flannel: there seem to be a lot of different siffixes as well. there are like around 20 kernels for 10.11 alone, for example, in the Amazon AMI list [04:09] patriceok1: if you cllick the link, a browser window will open with the wallpaper: https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Tech%20Support/Ubuntu/Spread%20Ubuntu/Studio%20Art/Studio%20Backgrounds/JKHP_ubuntu1440.jpg?w=0271fa89 [04:10] cgtdk: thanks now to find a new version of that... I assume it's in libxmlrpc-c but I don't see it.... [04:10] try holding Shift as you highlight? [04:10] does ubuntu come stock with something to play movies? [04:11] or do I have to download codecs and such? [04:11] Masters: it does, but the codecs arent predownloaded [04:11] Demonstrate: I figured it WINE wasn't only for XP--I just didn't know if versions of WINE, say, were 'dated' like versions if Windows. [04:11] When you open the media player it will automatically ask you to download the codecs [04:11] WINE supports different versions of Windows [04:11] jason404: Yeah, thats for a variety of things, and you /can/ install and play around with those, but that's not default (because most people don't need to). So if Amazon wants to complicate things, they're welcome to. [04:11] where do i get codecs? I know windows has the k-lite codec packs [04:11] Patriceok1: nah they're not dated. it's a powerhouse of support for "windows" applications [04:12] Masters check ubuntu software center. [04:12] patriceok1: attempted a direct file transfer [04:12] Masters: totem plays movies OOTB. But ubuntu-restricted-extras is probably required for a lot of codecs. If u-r-e fails then you need w32/w64 codecs from medibuntu as well. === omenfiend is now known as PoPpiLLs [04:12] Acer i sent him a pm and he was able to copy it. [04:12] Demonstrate: tyvm [04:13] well, if you attempt to open a file that you can't play in banshee, i believe it will ask you if you want to install a codec [04:13] Cya around Im on everyday, I like sitting here and learning peoples ways of fixing things and in return i help with what i know, so cya around guys, patriceok1, hope you love linux as much as i do! [04:13] but there's a package of "restricted" codecs available [04:14] they're restricted because they can't be legally distributed in ubuntu due to patents and copyrights === christian is now known as Guest42191 [04:14] acerimmer: transferring now. Please don't be porn! ;-p But why couldn't you post that link in a separate chat? or why can't I copy and paste a link or text from this main chat window. And why wasn't I sent to better schools? And what about Naomi...? [04:14] Patriceok1: it's the client you're using. [04:14] Demonstrate; have a good night. thanks for the help [04:14] oh i will im going to crash for hours! [04:15] patriceok1: LOL! Not porn. Happy computing [04:15] so with a different client I would have been sent to better schools. ah! [04:15] Lol no with a better irc client you'll have more functions "like copying text from chat windows" lol. [04:15] Ello? Can anyone give me a definitive answer on whether WPA2 over adhoc is supported on Linux...(on broadcom chipsets)...it seems like the only thing that does it is hostapd, which requires mac80211/nl80211 drivers...but I don't know if that's true... [04:15] anywho before i dont go tosleep, good night lol. [04:15] [04:15] peace out, y'all. GTG [04:15] i am trying to lower the brightness on my macbook pro 2,2 how hard is that to do ? [04:16] using ubuntu natty [04:16] does the key not work [04:16] nope [04:16] Demonstrate, but how can i only compile this specific part in the kernel? [04:16] oh, disappointing [04:16] i assumed it was hardware, not software [04:17] oh hai people. cr-48 with 11.10 wiiith touchpad issues. can't drag and drop but two finger scrolling and horizontal scrolling works. any ideas? thanks :) [04:17] tensorpudding: if it were hardware, Ubuntu upgrading from 10.04 to 11.04 wouldn't have broken my indicator(s) (sound/brightness) [04:17] do i upgrade the kernel or install something to make it work ? [04:18] cuz im on 2.6.38-13 [04:18] kernel [04:18] indicators are different [04:18] I am also having difficulty with installing the restricted codecs for video [04:19] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [04:19] are you installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras in the software center? [04:19] it should work === christian_ is now known as gort [04:19] I still have no audio with proprietary drivers === gort is now known as gort316 [04:20] upgrade your kernel hdmiaudio [04:20] maybe that would help [04:20] hmm, pro 2,2? [04:20] yeah [04:20] that's pretty old isn't it [04:20] I'm running 11.10, is there a newer kernel? [04:21] yeah [04:21] 3.2.0 [04:21] HDMIaudioguy does the output side work? is the volume down? not all tv's support hdmi audio [04:21] How can you identify which screen is the screen you are working on (according to the xorg configuration) since for some blasted reason there a 6 screens mapped and on [04:22] tensorpudding: yeAH [04:22] 3.0.0 is the latest that is in 11.10 [04:22] upstream is newer [04:22] It outputs to a receiver hooked up to speakers, I get audio from HDMI when I hook up an HD tuner or Win 7 laptop [04:22] well i know you can install 3.2.0 [04:22] tensorpudding, can u help out? i need to change those file: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part in the kernel? [04:22] i googled it [04:23] what? [04:23] but its manual [04:23] why do you want to change a file [04:23] installation [04:23] changeing a doc file? [04:24] that driver is super-old too [04:24] btw tensor the only reason why i dont have a newer one is because the newer macbooks have the dreaded broadcom in them [04:25] and this one has an atheros [04:25] meh [04:25] broadcom is fine [04:25] its a pain in the butt to install though :P [04:25] hi [04:25] not really [04:25] atheros is easy from the beginning [04:26] ubuntu's additional drivers finds the driver for it right away, for me [04:26] i find that atheros is much easier because you dont have to install anything to make it work [04:26] broadcom has some chips which are problematic, and some which are fine [04:26] is there any messaging clients out there that use skype service? i heard skype for linux was open source? [04:26] and atheros is outdated, the best you can get is G [04:26] natty packages work in maverick? [04:26] m^k, generally not [04:27] what i do for that [04:27] is it possible to install ubuntu server over regular ubuntu? [04:27] Troy_: skype is a proprietary service, thus making an open source client difficult [04:27] sherorox, installing ubuntu server would entail uninstalling a lot of ubuntu-desktop, which is not easy to do [04:27] tensorpudding: wht i do for that [04:27] m^k, what do you do for what? [04:28] m^k, why do you want to install a natty package [04:28] tensorpudding: yes [04:28] zykotick9: was just asking because its annoying using two different clients like pidgin for msn and skype for when i do video chats [04:28] it's really problematic dealing with packages individually, just so you know [04:28] sherorox: install the serveces you need is esier [04:28] tensorpudding: nothing for fun [04:28] tensorpudding: i cant really use n because the devices i have (i.e Playstation Portable, DSi,) [04:28] tensorpudding: so should I completely uninstall ubuntu then install ubuntu server? [04:28] you can use pidgin and skype [04:28] so its not really a problem for me [04:29] exit [04:29] exit [04:29] exit [04:29] m^k: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:29] m^k, you can try to install it and it will probably fail, and if it does there isn't anything you can easily do [04:29] sherorox: whats your end goal.. [04:29] dr-willis: is it possible to install a DNS and FTP server? [04:29] selina2: yea thats the point i dont want to use both at the sametime it sucks [04:29] tensorpudding, can u help out? i need to change those file: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/acm.txt ... how can i recompile this specific part in the kernel? [04:29] sherorox: of course [04:29] you might, might, be able to recompile it with different dependencies to build on maverick, but you just jump into a mess there [04:29] but i guess its just what devices you have [04:30] Gerald_, i don't know what you want to recompile, that's just a document, please explain [04:30] what it is you want to do [04:30] and again thats just my opinion [04:30] dr-willis: on regular ubuntu without server? [04:30] sherorox: my desktop bix is my maun home server [04:30] ubuntunoob, have you googled your problem, anyway? [04:30] one skype in one workspace and pidgin in other [04:30] and my experience [04:30] sherorox, this is one possibility [04:30] tensorpudding, Linux ACM driver [04:30] tensorpudding: yes several times [04:30] sherorox: yes. you are confused at to how server abd desktop differ [04:31] over several websites [04:31] sherorox, really, you don't lose anything by keeping ubuntu-desktop, and disabling unnecessary services [04:31] tensorpudding, how to recompile Linux ACM driver in the kernel? [04:31] um [04:31] anyone wanna help me with this error? [04:31] I left my laptop on and it locked [04:31] tensorpudding, ok I want my ubuntu desktop to just run and use all cpu and ram on the server. nothing else [04:31] when I try to unlock, it says [04:31] Gerald_, why? it would seem to be part of the linux kernel, why do you want to recompile it? do you have a patch? do you know for sure the patch will cleanly apply against the version of the kernel you have? [04:31] not permitted to unlock at this time [04:32] erm [04:32] not permitted to gain access at this time [04:32] sherorox: thats a little.. vague and odd [04:32] tensorpudding, there is one change i need to test: http://groups.google.com/group/ti-launchpad/browse_frm/thread/e414bf066fbd1d59/1dacabc8a4f00ab6#1dacabc8a4f00ab6 [04:32] dr-willis: ok Ill be back in a little with more questions [04:32] tensorpudding, there is not patch...they just discussed that in here [04:33] recompiling it will not change anything unless you're patching it [04:33] tensorpudding, patch to the kernel? [04:33] as in, changing the source [04:34] tensorpudding, i want the change to be effective...so i need to recompile the kernel? [04:34] what change [04:34] is it the code blurb in that page [04:35] pressing 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] tensorpudding, yes [04:35] Is there a way to put Bookmarks below Computer in Nautilus? [04:35] Gerald_, well [04:35] Gerald_, it's a bit involved, if you want to do it "the right way" [04:35] tensorpudding, i wanna give a try [04:35] you would get the source package for the kernel you have [04:35] bookmarks in nautilus file sistem? [04:36] then write a patch for what you want to change [04:36] and integrate it into the package patches [04:36] then build the source package [04:36] tensorpudding, seems a lot of effort? [04:36] and install it using the software center or dpkg [04:36] Gerald_, yes [04:36] tensorpudding, ;( [04:36] get source, patch source, compile, install [04:37] it'd require you getting to know the ubuntu package tools [04:37] at least superficially [04:37] tensorpudding, patch source = add those changes from the website? [04:37] well, you'd change it, and create a diff [04:38] the diff being a file describing what you changed, that is a patch [04:38] tensorpudding, how can i only compile the related part in the kernel? [04:38] you can't [04:38] tensorpudding, like ACM driver... [04:39] the ACM driver is presumably part of the linux kernel source tree [04:39] since it's on the linux kernel site [04:39] Mike98632: i wouldn't hold my breath - Ubuntu/Gnome3 aren't really made for customization. Good luck man. [04:39] tensorpudding, so i need to compile all of the tree? [04:40] pressing 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] zykotick9: Yeah, it's really unfortunate. :( [04:40] in 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 module [04:40] Gerald_, yes [04:40] basically [04:40] tensorpudding, oh:) [04:40] the kernel in ubuntu is configured to include most all of the available drivers as part of the kernel [04:40] they're not "separate" [04:40] exactly [04:41] tensorpudding, i have linux 2.3.36-27-generic .. so i need those sourceS? [04:41] 2.6.36? [04:41] tensorpudding, i have linux 2.6.35-27-generic .. so i need those sourceS? [04:41] :D [04:41] yeah [04:42] for i866 [04:42] and ubuntu [04:42] i866? [04:43] i686 [04:43] that's what i thought :p === dns_ is now known as dns53 [04:43] ibm thinkpad [04:43] EvilResistance, is it bad?:D [04:43] Gerald_: no, was just making sure you mistyped [04:43] there's a package, something like linux-image [04:43] you need to get the source package [04:43] because if you hadnt, i'd have to go google the new architecture XD [04:44] tensorpudding: whats he trying to get? [04:44] tensorpudding, which linux image? [04:44] the one that matches your kernel [04:44] tensorpudding, im searching it... [04:44] probably linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic if you're running maverick [04:45] you can get the version using 'uname -a', or by looking in the system information [04:45] tensorpudding, i have ubuntu 10.10 [04:46] there's generally several versions [04:47] tensorpudding, http://openpaste.org/6Ed17cf0 [04:47] tensorpudding, I forget where to remove previous versions to prevent clogging up my bootloader screen. [04:47] mistform, there is unfortunately not a simple way to do that [04:47] i wrote a script which does it [04:48] tensorpudding, i have maverick [04:48] well, there is a simple way, but it's tedious and requires searching and typing a lot [04:49] Gerald_, okay [04:49] lol I'm not so great at scripting... actually fail. I took a single C++ class way back when so I understand basic stuff but can't do it myself [04:49] i want to add a launcher to the panel will someone help [04:49] tensorpudding, can u help me to find the right source? :D === jack is now known as Guest56114 [04:49] How do I upgrade to kernel version 3.2? [04:49] Hi! [04:49] I do not understand adumbration could be synonymous with oxymoron [04:49] HDMIaudioguy, it's not really supported [04:50] HDMIaudioguy, you might get lucky and check for a kernel ppa [04:50] that's something which likely exists [04:50] <[deXter]> HDMIaudioguy, google for ubuntu mainlike kernel ppa [04:50] then you add it to your software sources, and you'll get kernel upgrades [04:50] <[deXter]> *mainline [04:50] !define adumbration [04:50] lol nvm... [04:50] hey...can anyone tell me the package name for a pre-9.0.1 version of firefox so I can downgrade pls [04:51] robman, use synaptic package manager [04:51] 9.0.1. is officially released for Firefox. [04:51] robman, downgrading would be problematic [04:51] mistform - ta [04:51] aBound - 9.0.1 crashes lots [04:51] tensorpudding - why? [04:51] old versions are not supported anymore by canonical, and you'd have to manually subvert the upgrade process [04:52] which would try to update firefox every time [04:52] package management blows anyhoos [04:52] I use 3.6 lol [04:52] it's continually trying to force thunderbird down my throat - and i don't want it === dns_ is now known as dns53 [04:52] tensorpudding - i happily uncheck boxes a lot 8) [04:53] Gerald_, the source you want is linux-image-2.6.35-27-generic [04:53] robman, I found my FF by googling "download previous versions of FF" [04:53] mistform - i tried that but got lazy so tried here 8) thanks tho [04:53] robman, uninstall thunderbird and the updates will go away. [04:53] tensorpudding, is apt-get to download it? :) [04:53] urlin2u - tried that several ways - very open to tips on how [04:53] apt-get source linux-image-2.6.35-27-generic [04:54] will fetch the source, unpack it and patch it for you [04:54] then you can work [04:54] compiling source packages will cause issues you should be aware of [04:54] tensorpudding, apt-get only downloads the source? [04:54] robman, sudo apt-get purge thunderbird check for any others pulled in think it stands alone. [04:54] Gerald_, no, apt-get source [04:55] source is the command [04:55] like install [04:55] tensorpudding, forgot [04:55] urlin2u - ta will try that [04:55] and to install the source? [04:55] tensorpudding, sorry never did before haha [04:55] * |Anthony| clears throat [04:55] robman, 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 %u [04:55] <|Anthony|> What does the %u refer to? [04:55] Gerald_, i don't have time to teach you how to do the whole packaging process, there's a lot of tutorials and books describing it [04:55] you aren't writing a package, you're only patching it [04:55] aBound 8/ ta [04:56] but you'll need to understand how packaging works to build and install your patched package [04:57] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete [04:57] robman, The only way I see you getting version 8.0 is by compiling. [04:57] is the semi-official ubuntu description [04:57] aBound - that might be a good idea anyways [04:57] there are parts you can skip [04:58] Anybody have any idea why the keyboard would stop working in Dash, but still work everywhere else? [04:58] all you should be concerned with is how to build and how to patch it [04:58] Usually 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. [05:00] robman, You'd probably be upgrading to Firefox 10 when it's released on January 31st. [05:00] aBound - happy to try it - just need lots of browsers for testing - ideally ones that work [05:01] 8) [05:01] "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] took me a little bit to make a simple statement using the word "adumbration." unfortunately my migraine prevents me from creating greater [05:01] Firefox 10.0 the beta worked for me but ideally compiling firefox is the only way to get 8 as far as I see it. [05:02] robman, You could always try the #firefox channel. [05:02] :P [05:02] yah...probably more appropriate 8) [05:02] off to get flamed - cya - thanks everyone [05:05] tensorpudding, why is it download another version? http://openpaste.org/A9c52Cfa [05:05] Gerald_, because it's a source package, the source package has a different name [05:05] hm [05:06] i think the one you have is outdated [05:07] essentially, the source package gets updates, and updates create new packages [05:07] this is so you can have multiple kernels installed at once [05:07] you can't have multiple versions of the same package at once, so the different kernel builds have different packages [05:07] the source package matches the source for the most recent one [05:08] Is 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] that's why there's like a half dozen different kernel versions in maverick [05:08] every time they pull bugfixes they bump the version number === gcunha_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha [05:11] I upgraded my kernel to 3.2 and still have no HDMI audio [05:12] wow what sistem ubuntu? [05:13] hi [05:13] I ned help compiling wine update [05:13] hi [05:13] Sure [05:14] ahaha [05:14] I'm running 11.10 [05:14] 10.10 [05:14] sudo apt-get build-dep wine [05:14] HDMIaudioguy, just checking, but you unmuted all of your outputs right? [05:14] this is the solution http://pastebin.com/uXcrXGnS [05:15] im currently in the last step with if the =yum problem === gcunha_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha [05:15] yum is the wrong build system, use apt-get [05:15] Specifically, apt-get build-dep wine [05:15] =yum -y install xorg* =yum -y install gnome* (if u have gnome x) =yum -y install gdm* [05:15] sightlight, if it says yum you should not be following the guide because it won't work in ubuntu [05:15] tensorpudding: Yes, through the GUI and alsa [05:15] You may also be interested in adding the wine ppa if you're having troubles [05:16] are you using alsa? [05:16] Yes [05:16] i don't think alsamixer affects things if you are using pulseaudio [05:16] =yum is not ubuntu? [05:16] how can i unmute things in pulseaudio? [05:16] a wow [05:16] yum is rpm [05:16] apt-get is for ubuntu [05:16] sightlight, ubuntu uses apt-get [05:17] yum is for fedora [05:17] sightlight, sudo apt-get build-dep wine [05:17] I just need the X stuff to compile [05:17] its the last thing [05:17] sightlight, sudo apt-get build-dep wine [05:17] HDMIaudioguy, well, if you used pavucontrol to check all the channels and make sure that they are sending audio [05:18] sightlight,It will get all the required dependancies to build wine [05:18] HDMIaudioguy, it should work, then [05:18] build-dep is 510MB!! [05:18] wow! [05:18] wine has a lot of dependancies [05:18] Have you considered using their ppa? [05:19] tensoraudio: should I just run that from the terminal? [05:19] the update just came out [05:19] and they will take like 3 weeks to update their PPA [05:20] HDMIaudioguy, it's called pulseaudio volume control, it'll appear in Applications [05:20] if you have installed it [05:20] Well, 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. [05:21] ima get then the build-dep === dns__ is now known as dns53 [05:21] thats all? [05:22] build-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. [05:23] After the build dependancies have been fetched, you'll still need to follow the usual configure/make build chain, of course. [05:24] tensorpudding: I checked the pulseaudio settings, nothing's muted, still no audio [05:24] hey TSB [05:24] i think it has to do with video drivers [05:24] Yes? [05:24] E: Must specify at least one package to check builddeps for [05:25] do you have intel, ati or nvidia video? [05:25] sudo apt-get build-dep wine [05:25] Did you forget to specify wine at the end? [05:26] tensorpudding: nvidia ion [05:26] HDMIaudioguy, are you using the proprietary nvidia driver? [05:26] you might have to [05:26] yes [05:27] I plan on doing a fresh install of 11.10 but want to resize my partition by shrinking windows/increasing linux. Will I have to repair windows afterwards? [05:27] Hey guys, after long time using gnome-shell i've decided to try unity. So here is my question: How do i make it so when my windows are in fullscreen,the close,minimize etc. is on the right and not the left side. (i can do this in ubutu tweak, when windows are not fullscreen) but how do it in fullscreen also? [05:27] compizcfg? [05:28] i'm using proprietary nvidia [05:28] TSB im downloading, thank you [05:28] sightlight: Not a problem, happy to help :) [05:29] uabn93: you should be able to resize the windows partition within windows to avoid needing a repair [05:29] HDMIaudioguy: while the partition is active? [05:30] I think it can be done with EASEUS [05:31] if i use gparted, what will happen to windows? [05:31] using a livecd [05:31] uabn93: That depends upon what you are going to do with gparted [05:31] HDMIaudioguy, not sure then [05:31] thanks anyway [05:32] do you see volume levels moving on the output of pavucontrol when you play audio? [05:32] wait [05:32] karthick87: i want to shorten windows to make more room for ubuntu [05:33] maybe you need to add a config thing in the pulseaudio config for the hardware output [05:33] uabn93: if you resize it correctly, you might be able to correctly resize the thing and make that space [05:33] uabn93: but there are risks to that... [05:33] uabn93: if you change the starting point on the drive where Windows resides, it could have nasty repercussions on your system, resulting in crashes, failed boots, etc. [05:33] * EvilResistance ran into that numerous times [05:34] How do i make it so when my windows are in fullscreen,the close,minimize etc. is on the right and not the left side. (i can do this in ubutu tweak, when windows are not fullscreen) but how do it in fullscreen also? [05:34] not sure what that entails for an ion though [05:34] vooze, you can't [05:34] hmm [05:34] back to shell, i guess :( === gcunha_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha [05:35] but thanks anyway for your answer urlin2u [05:35] EvilResistance: if done correctly (ive done this before :]) will i have to repair the windows mbr? thats the part i dont remember [05:35] vooze, no problem the integration with the top panel is a irritant for some. [05:36] uabn93: if you don't move the MBR, and you tell GRUB to install to the ubuntu partition you set up, it should work, but its been a while since i've had to resize windows [05:36] * EvilResistance prepartitions his drives before installations [05:37] tensorpudding: I did see the volume levels moving [05:39] how do you save your mic setting in sound so it retains over reboots [05:40] well got wow working on wine, not perfect but oh well [05:40] I blame Blizzard for not making a linux version of the game... [05:40] EvilResistance: yeh, silly mistake. this is the last time.. no worries. i guess grub will install just fine since im doing a fresh install of 11.10. thanks for the help [05:41] anyone have issues with pulse audio cutting out? [05:41] How can I restart it? [05:42] alsamixer [05:42] in terminal [05:42] selina2, alsamixer used to work [05:43] selina2, recently my audio has been failing and alsamixer doesn't help [05:43] aaaa ok [05:43] ever since I upgraded to the latest version (and switched to xfce) [05:44] tensorpudding: I did see the volume levels moving [05:44] selina2, ah, here we go. pulseaudio apparently crashed and was restarted by something. [05:44] selina2, but it confused vlc so I needed to restart it [05:45] aaaaaaa i hope you fix it [05:58] hi [05:58] are there any chromium developer here? === gcunha_ is now known as GuilhermeCunha [05:59] hey === root is now known as Guest67861 [06:00] hlep === dns_ is now known as dns53 [06:01] exit [06:02] lol [06:02] Guest67861, you are looking for /part [06:03] Guest32249: add "/" i.e. "/help" or "/quit" for exit [06:05] is possible to install oneiric packages in maverick?

[07:00] hi, ip link set ? up replies that RTNETLINK:operation not supported [07:00] pnorman: hmm, okay, so then would it do a bytewise transfer? what about hardware RAID? [07:01] any ideas to get past it [07:02] If 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 withit [07:03] guys, any ideas? atleast a link to where I might find help? [07:03] pnorman: okay, so it would set up and then do the transfer. Interesting. Thank you :), i can sleep easy now haha.

First are you [07:20] certain that your windows is actually wiped? [07:20] yeah, i can't even boot into it, but i can go through linux and look at all the files [07:21] merlin: so your windows IS still there? [07:21] Windows is still there, it's just a bootloader issue. [07:21] so it didn't wipe the disk, it just wiped the MBR? [07:21] possibly === denominaror is now known as Den-SVR [07:22] merlin: how many HDD's are you using [07:22] 2 [07:22] Uhhhh, yesterday I installed gnome-session and gnome-shell, so I could try something other than metacity. Now I can't remove gnome-shell! My computer auto boots in to gnome-shell rather than metacity, and it's really, really slow. I can't use it. Am in IRSSI on TTY atm :/ please help. [07:22] Linux will sometimes wipe out the MBR of the first drive (where windows resides), windows is still there, all you have to do is re install grub and it should auto detect the other OS's [07:22] What's that controlled in, /etc/inittab? My memory of GUI stuff is a bit rusty. [07:23] how would i go about that properly MECHDAVE [07:23] Corey, /etc/fstab is all the mount points for all the file systems on Linux [07:23] merlin_, give me a moment and I shall find you a guide [07:23] ok [07:24] merlin_, --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [07:25] Mechdave: Urm... what about /etc/fstab? :-) [07:25] merlin_, More to the point --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling_GRUB2 [07:25] Mechdave: I was talking to mang0, not the disk issue. :-) [07:25] Corey, fstab keeps track of all the mount points on the linux system [07:25] ok cool. good looking out, i will try this and be back on to confirm [07:25] !grub [07:25] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic).

And /etc/mtab shows what's currently mounted, what of it? [07:25] merlin_: ^ useful links [07:26] merlin_, read cartefully and understand FIRST before changing things :) [07:26] merlin: I'm triple booting on 1 drive. lots of work to set up but it can be done. [07:26] (usually symlinked to /proc/mounts, not sure if Ubuntu does it that way) [07:27] Mechdave: And technically it doesn't keep track of all of the mountpoints, just the ones that should be mounted at boot time. [07:27] Alright Mechdave. I will do what i can. I never ran into this before and i used linux for 4 years. [07:27] alright, gonna give it a whirl [07:31] anyone here familiar with deluge-daemon, too many open files [07:31] I say restart the bugger :3 [07:31] jwash: This on a VPS? [07:31] Uhhhh, yesterday I installed gnome-session and gnome-shell, so I could try something other than metacity. Now I can't remove gnome-shell! My computer auto boots in to gnome-shell rather than metacity, and it's really, really slow. I can't use it. Am in IRSSI on TTY atm. If I choose the 'ubuntu' session at startup, it gives me an error saying 'session: "ubuntu" not found' [07:31] corey, no [07:31] local [07:32] jwash: Hmm. Is limits.conf restricting the number of open files you can have? [07:32] jwash: It'd be in /etc/security [07:32] i swear that i changed it to 9999 [07:32] from like 1200 or so [07:33] jwash: Might be time to boost that.

I'm not sure what could be causing such behaviour, especially if it appears even after a clean install [09:37] theadmin : any idea of how to write a script to overwrite this issue [09:41] inashdeen: 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.

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 proble [10:20] ms for you. [10:21] SpikeLy: Some one else could have gotten wireless for xmass. [10:21] cheako: the machine a few cm away from it works fine using the same access point :) [10:21] SpikeLy: can you pastebin your syslog? [10:21] SpikeLy, did you move/drop your router? The wifi card in my router once came loose after i kicked it so wifi didn't work [10:22] dannel: other computers are able to use it fine [10:22] SpikeLy: can you pastebin your syslog? [10:22] almoxarife: one moment. [10:23] delinquentme: I've always used the command line tools, so there is only one spelling of zip/rar/tar/ect. [10:23] 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] changing wirelss channels helps [10:25] Yeah, I really hate networking these days. I've got nothing but TwistedPair here and I have issues all the time with link not working and DHCP servers that don't reply. === onre is now known as Guest99356 [10:25] use kismet, find the open space, then use it [10:26] cheako, I dont follow? [10:26] why would wired networking cause you issues? [10:26] almoxarife: The biggest problem is the networks that you'd never see in a kismet scan, but reach you nonetheless. [10:26] wireless is inherently unreliable, but copper should be fine [10:27] what is the easy way to use my wlan0 wireless card as acces-point while I connected to internet using eth0? [10:27] I've tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessAccessPoint with no luck [10:28] ssta: Tell me about it. It's this one D-Link switch that flakes out, perhaps it's defective. The other issue I'm not sure, but there is a laptop that can't get DHCP. [10:28] like *should* be able to extract .zip files with the default util right? [10:29] delinquentme: You keep saying default util, but that's ambiguous as there are several ways to unzip a file. [10:30] almoxarife: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/803871/ [10:30] cheako, i've tried tar and "file roller" [10:30] delinquentme: Try typing "unzip file" at a prompt. [10:30] tar won't open .zip [10:30] SpikeLy: thnks, [10:31] !info unp [10:31] unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0~pre7 (oneiric), package size 13 kB, installed size 124 kB [10:31] delinquentme: tar will only work with tar files, but you got the default utill part correct. Now if we could only get every one to start using tar instead of zip, rar, or the current flavour. [10:31] cheako, ssta thanks !!! [10:31] ubottu: no! awful awful awful idea! [10:31] ssta: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [10:32] delinquentme: fileroller should have worked. [10:32] it was complaining :D [10:32] it alowed me to browse it [10:32] allowed* [10:32] delinquentme: maybe the file is corrupt? [10:32] newp! unzipped just fine with the command [10:33] SpikeLy: do you use ipv6? [10:33] almoxarife: no [10:33] Hi! [10:33] SpikeLy: see if it is checked [10:34] almoxarife: method: ignore [10:34] SpikeLy: ok [10:36] So a GTK engine is nothing more then a component used by themes? [10:36] How do I set the theme in gnome3 again? [10:37] I have two choices Hicontrast and inverted HC. [10:37] gnome-tweak tool i think cheako [10:38] dr-willis: I try, thx. [10:38] webupd8 blog site has some info and nicce themes [10:38] dr-willis, hi === ubuntu is now known as stephane0981 [10:40] almoxarife: any other suggestions? :p [10:41] Shell theme has an orange triangle "!" and is blank. Using gnome-shell here. [10:41] I'm currently using 10.04, do I have to upgrade to 11 for everything to work, this install is very outdated and I don't want to have to upgrade [10:42] SpikeLy: do you know what channel the router is on? [10:42] almoxarife: it is set to auto [10:43] Supernova you could wait for the next LTS [10:43] cheako: webupd8 blog site has a guide on setting up themes [10:43] gtk-theme-switch, hmm installing this. [10:44] dns53, I want to stay on 10.04, but it doesn't seem to like installing anything [10:44] almoxarife: do you think it helps if i set it manually? [10:44] just gives 404 errors on the gb.archive repos [10:45] SpikeLy: what i see is a working wifi, not connecting, and in my case it means i need to find a less congested channel, can you do the same? [10:45] actually [10:45] nvm forgot to sudo aptitude update [10:46] almoxarife: i will try to find a better channel and see if it helps! Thanks [10:46] Supernova well it should, it still has a few years of support, could you try another mirror, is your network working otherwise? [10:47] dns53, don't worry, forgot to update [10:47] Things look a lot nicer, but my problems still remain. [10:47] bye. [10:52] hello!

Sorry to waste your time guys, took me hours to realize. [12:38] ((Does xorg use a conf.d folder these days instead of the xorg.conf?)) [12:38] is there any flag which forces apt to get 32bit builds instead of 64bit ? (in a 64bit environment) [12:38] Katagia, did you install the nividia-common or nvidia-legacy drivers for whatever card you have? === Mud is now known as Guest71067 [12:38] MK`: Oh, you're right.

The version in natty+ is 0.6.1, but the only version I seem to be able to get is 0.5.10. [12:40] Katagia, after doing that, reboot and see if you get gdm [12:40] does anyone have an idea what can it be? [12:40] Is there a way to force the package version? [12:40] guy_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchHowto, it's not enabled by default. [12:40] Sivik OK I'm rebooting [12:41] NextshX, never used proxychains so I am not sure. sorry [12:41] Katagia, alright, you should see an nvidia screen before gdm loads and that means they are installed correctly. [12:42] Sivik, After reboot I can see the ubuntu splash screen but nothing is moving. After some secs. the screen turns black [12:42] Sivik, I haven't seen the nvidia logo [12:42] Hi, I have problems coping files(90MB) on microsd(512MB) [12:42] Katagia, ok, second.

[12:49] MonkeyDust: spreadsheet apparently, but it's really an #libreoffice question [12:49] MonkeyDust, spreadsheet [12:49] yes oCean but the channel is dead i guess! [12:50] nobody is answernig [12:50] how would you guys go about changing the boot order of ubuntu? say I have added an entry in 40custom that I want to appear TOP of the grub entry list? === ^adrian^ is now known as de_Bian [12:51] MojZ2: that still does not make it ontopic for this channel, we would be answering all sorts of questions [12:51] yeah sorry oCean [12:51] Ok, I'm running Lucid and trying to update cloud-init. The version in natty+ is 0.6.1, but the only version I seem to be able to get is 0.5.10. Is there any way to force aptitude to install the new version (on Lucid LTS)? === root_ is now known as Hodiny [12:56] wingot is it in the repos or a PPA ? [12:56] MonkeyDust: It's in the repos for natty and above. [12:59] Hi. [13:00] I just set up VNC on Ubuntu after installing xfce-desktop. [13:00] But when I try to connect to ubuntu with a VNC client, it just shows a gray screen. [13:00] Did I miss an important step? [13:00] wingot idd, it shows 0.6 here, maybe try to add newer sources, but make sure you don't ruin your system [13:01] I can not sync my iphone with ubuntu 11.10, Can someone help me? [13:02] following error: Unable to mount iphone [13:02] MonkeyDust: Looks like I'm using 'lucid main universe', have you got any more to date in yours? [13:02] how would you guys go about changing the boot order of ubuntu? say I have added an entry in 40custom that I want to appear TOP of the grub entry list? [13:03] wingot i use the oneiric sources, but then, this is oneiric [13:03] MonkeyDust: Explains it, oneiric is later then natty (which has the newer version) :P [13:04] :) [13:05] Ok, I made a mistake and ran tasksel which removed all the packages I'd installed (sigh). [13:06] I've reinstalled apache2, mysql, php5 and php5-mysqli, but phpmyadmin is now claiming mysqli is missing. [13:06] is it possible to upgrade to 11.10 from 10.04 with out using a iso [13:06] I've checked the file is in /etc/php5/conf.d and have restarted via /etc/init.d/apache2 restart [13:06] Any idea what the issue could be? [13:07] I can not sync my iphone with ubuntu 11.10, Can someone help me? === xarolx is now known as test === test is now known as xarolx [13:09] hi all. i just installed ubuntu server for the first time and it booted into a gui. have i gone horribly wrong somewhere? [13:09] you've not installed server [13:09] ^ [13:09] thats what i thought. the installatio did say it was ubuntu-server though [13:10] hi guys, Just did a raid1 install of 10.04 x64 but the system won't boot. I have a /dev/disk/by-uuid does not exist. I've read to tell grub not to use uuid's, so I've booted in chroot and updated /etc/default/grub. After a grub-install I see that it has "set root='(md127)'". After a reboot, grub tells me it cannot find md127 and drops me to a shell [13:10] here i am [13:10] asher^: then you installed a gui post install [13:10] ill try it all again [13:10] TvL2386: what type or raid, hardware/software/fakeraid [13:10] ikonia, I'm using linux software raid [13:11] I'm using cinnamon for ubuntu [13:11] TvL2386: so mdadm managed ? [13:11] ikonia, yes [13:11] ikonia, I suspect my nvidia onboard card to have something to do with this though [13:11] TvL2386: you have an nvidia disk controller ? [13:12] ikonia, on install ubuntu asks me to load SATA DRIVERS. if I say yes, i see some weird nvidia raidset and when I choose no, i can manage software raid (mdadm) myself [13:12] ikonia, yes === Elling_ is now known as elling85 [13:12] TvL2386: ok - here is how I would play it. [13:12] TvL2386: 1.) your boot cannot see the meta device, it's not there, that is fact [13:12] I need help to install ati radeon drivers? [13:12] Hello gyts [13:13] TvL2386: 2.) why isn't it there - probably because the device is not started [13:13] ikonia, it is true that when I'm dropped to the shell, there is no md* device in /dev [13:13] ikonia, though /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are present [13:13] TvL2386: 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) [13:14] Listen.. how can i get ubuntu connected to a shared internet connection? I use Windows 7 to share internet with ubuntu :) But ubuntu doesn`t seem to get connected to internet! Thanks!! :) [13:14] ikonia, isn't mdadm.conf read when the os is fully booted, so it doesn't matter what the contents are? [13:14] Someus: how are you sharing the internet with windows [13:14] ikonia thanks a lot [13:14] TvL2386: it's parsed at assembly time [13:14] I am using 3G :) [13:14] ikonia, for booting that is (btw: booting into rescue right now) [13:14] 3g modem [13:14] Someus: You have two pc's, one running Win 7 and a USB internet connection, with the two connected via cable? [13:15] Someus: no, what have you done in windows to make windows share the connection [13:15] I use wireless router! [13:15] And i use win 7 as server [13:15] Someus: ok, does ubuntu connect to the wireles router ? [13:15] and my ubuntu laptop connect to it trought cisco rotuer [13:15] Yes! [13:15] It connects [13:15] Someus: does the ubuntu machine get an ip address ? [13:15] Quick question: You have any other devices that can connect to the internet through this wireless router? [13:16] Yes it gets 192.168.1.100 [13:16] as usually [13:16] i get :) [13:16] Someus: ok - two thins to now check 1.) what is the gatway device of the ubuntu machine 2.) what are the dns servers of the ubuntu machine [13:16] Someus: not what you think it should use, but what is currently on the ubuntu machine and in use [13:17] i don`t know what gateway really is :( [13:17] Someus: route -n [13:17] should it be windows 7 in this case? === alien_ is now known as Guest4206 [13:17] hello [13:17] Someus: again - not what it SHOULD be, what is it ACTUALLY using [13:18] the gateway address is 192.168.1.1 [13:18] !KDE [13:18] KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. [13:18] there is an errors on servers [13:18] Shouldn't the gateway be the router? [13:18] Someus: what is the ip address 192.168.1.1 [13:18] oh sorry [13:18] http://pl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/seabios/seabios_0.6.2-0ubuntu1_all.deb Forbidden [13:18] then it`s router [13:18] why [13:18] my router ip is 192.168.1.1 [13:18] Hi, I need some help about partitions: my current disk: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6171737/hd.png - I have 71gb on Win7 and I would like to add more space to it removing from sda3, but I don't know how. [13:18] and the gateway in ubuntu is 192.168.1.1 :) is it ok? [13:18] Someus: ok - your ubuntu machine is routing out of the router, therefore for the ubuntu machine to use the internet, the router must forward that connection to your internet gateway [13:19] so i what should i do? [13:20] replace with the 3G modems gateway right? [13:20] Someus: I don't think the problem is on the ubuntu end [13:20] Someus: no, the router must be configured to router/forward out of the interent getway [13:20] Someus: the ubuntu machine is setup fine, your network is not [13:20] How can i do that? [13:21] what should i configure in router? [13:21] Someus: depends on your router, not all routers can do this [13:21] (wireless routers I mean, not actual routers) [13:21] But why it was ok when i shared win7 internet with winXP? [13:22] It was ok [13:22] i did the same [13:22] Someus: check the gateway on the winXP side [13:22] ikonia shouldn't I see a /dev/md* device when I'm dropped to the shell in order to be able to boot from it? [13:22] Someus: check the dns servers on the winXP side [13:22] ikonia i don`t have xp right now :) [13:22] TvL2386: not if the raid device is not started [13:23] ikonia, so updating mdadm.conf with the correct md device would fix this? [13:23] On ubuntu i have IP: 192.168.1.1 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS: 192.168.1.1 Is it ok? [13:23] TvL2386: it would certainly help it [13:23] TvL2386: also manually starting the device to confirm the correct meta device [13:23] Someus: that is all set to use the router - if your router can deal with that, then it's fine [13:23] whats the keyboard shortcut to change layouts? [13:23] oh sorry IP: 192.168.1.199 [13:23] oh sorry 192.168.1.100 :D [13:24] ikonia i think it can :) [13:24] ikonia, the ubuntu rescue cd has automatically mounted/started md127 which looks good [13:24] It is pretty good router :) [13:24] Someus: then you are fine [13:24] TvL2386: ok, so you should be ok [13:24] no i am not :D i don`t have internet connection [13:24] Someus: then your router is not forwarding it to the internet gateway [13:25] why it was ok with two windows machines? [13:25] I don't know as you can't tell me the windows sertings [13:25] hmm [13:25] Someus: Try pinging your router from the ubuntu machine [13:25] Someus: on the ubuntu machine ping 192.168.1.1 [13:25] what is the solution? [13:26] so what`s there? [13:26] seems ok [13:26] Someus: :| [13:26] what ? [13:26] Someus: You're getting replies? [13:26] yes [13:26] Someus: ok - now ping 8.8.8.8 [13:27] ikonia: What's that? [13:27] wingot: random google dns serer [13:27] Destination Net Unreachable [13:27] Hmm, ok, easy to remember, thanks [13:27] I know it replies to ping, that's all [13:27] Someus: there we go then, your router is not forwarding the request [13:27] Someus: fix your router [13:27] How? [13:27] :) [13:27] no idea [13:27] :D [13:27] great [13:27] contact the router people, check the router support forums [13:28] me too [13:28] Someus: No idea, it's no longer in the bounds of ubuntu/linux problems. [13:28] Someus: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [13:28] I am not FloodBot1 :D [13:28] that`s sad [13:28] Because i have problem like this with ubuntu only [13:28] Someus: it's not an ubuntu issue [13:28] it's your networking [13:29] Someus: At a guess something's changed that would be stopping the WinXP one from working as well [13:29] Someus: Actually: Do a pastebin of your route -n output [13:29] Just want to look at something, that you have a route setup for 0.0.0.0 and not just 192.168.0.0 [13:29] he should have, as we asked what the defualt router was [13:29] route [13:29] Well, obviously not a direct pastebin :P. [13:30] and he confirmed default = 192.168.1.1 [13:30] I can`t pastebin :D [13:30] my ubuntu is offline [13:30] I am using win7 now [13:30] why? [13:30] then how did you do the ping check [13:30] Someus: can you access the ubuntu machine now. yes/no [13:30] yes [13:30] ikonia: He could have something stupid like this [13:30] Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface [13:30] 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 [13:31] no! [13:31] Destination: 0.0.0.0 [13:31] Someus: Thanks [13:31] Gateway: 192.168.1.1 [13:31] Someus: do netstat -rn do you have a line that says 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 [13:31] Genmask: 0.0.0.0 [13:31] Someus: then your router is the problem [13:31] Yep, in that case try using another device to test the internet connection [13:31] Anyone give a little help with a printer problem on Ubuntu 11.10 64Bit ?

[14:13] I was trying out the fingerprint scanner but it caused problems during the screen lock [14:14] so I went back into the common-auth file and removed the lines I added [14:14] Colin969: It displayed things before getting to that error didn't it? [14:14] now it won't let me log in [14:14] Colin969: look at the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf see if there is anything that obviously stands out as different to your new cards design [14:14] That error only came up once the OS was loaded? [14:14] Wheres that? x-x [14:14] does anyone know the default root password? [14:14] Colin969: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the file and it's location [14:14] Masters: there isn't one [14:14] YES I feel dumb. But ok. [14:14] ...How am I meant to get there? [14:15] I tried leaving the password blank when logging in as root but still nothing [14:15] #ubuntuhelp [14:15] Colin969: use a livecd to boot, then read the hard disk from there [14:15] Colin969: You'll need a shell [14:15] Masters: there isn't one [14:15] there isn't one what? [14:15] Ah. [14:15] Masters: There is no root password. [14:15] I have one of those lying around ^^ [14:15] Ubuntu uses sudo exclusively. [14:15] Masters: a root password [14:15] so how do I log into root? [14:15] Masters: you can't login as root [14:15] ... [14:15] Masters: you can't [14:15] ok if I cant log into my own account [14:15] I can't get Flash to work in Ubuntu with FF or Opera.... says it "crashed" any help please? [14:15] Colin969: If you didn't the ubuntu install disk doubles as one. [14:15] what do I do? [14:15] Why in my firefox text are thin and pale, my language is arabic and os is ubuntu ??? [14:15] Masters: why can't you login [14:16] Masters: What's the use case where you need to login as root? [14:16] ikonia: hmm, don't know but NOW it works. strange or the silent nice guy changed something [14:16] user case? [14:16] i.e., why are you even trying to? [14:16] oh [14:16] wingot, can boot from USB, just have to shove it on my SD Card + Adater [14:16] I explained when I got in the channel [14:16] thanks [14:16] Masters: you've explained you've been messing with a finger print reader, but why can you not login now [14:16] I don't know why [14:16] Masters: Oh, can't login. [14:17] it keeps telling me invalid password [14:17] I know I' typing it in right [14:17] Masters: use a livecd, boot, mount the hard disk, undo what you've done [14:17] I did undo what I did though [14:17] Masters: Grab your install disk, open up a live cd and then ... what is it, chsomething to get into a shell of your system. [14:17] From there, do password reset === pfsmorigo_ is now known as Guest7179 [14:18] ikonia, I didn't delete the drivers before hand...Fail on my side. [14:18] heres the guide I used: http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/04/get-your-fingerprint-reader-to-work-in.html [14:18] Colin969: you don't have to delete the drivers [14:18] The older ones. [14:18] Colin969: why do you think you have to ? [14:18] besides installing the fprint software and setting it up the only file thats changed is: sudo gedit /etc/pam.d/common-auth [14:18] Colin969: where are you getting the nvidia drivers ? [14:18] and I removed those changes, thats what caused this [14:18] ikonia, I havent yet xD [14:19] Colin969: where did you get the old ones [14:19] chmount is the command I was thinknig of I think [14:19] The NVIDIA Site [14:19] Masters: do a password reset [14:19] ok [14:19] Colin969: ok - don't do that, that is a bad idea [14:19] this is why I stayed away from Linux for so long =\ [14:19] Masters: don't use it then [14:19] Ahh, chroot [14:20] Writing a bootable USB now [14:20] Brb [14:20] Masters: Live CD (install disk works), chroot into your environment, do a password reset on your account. [14:20] don't like windows, cant use Linux.....wow I'm screwed [14:20] And in future be careful when fooling around with pam :P [14:20] ya no kidding wing [14:21] Masters: To be fair if you'd gone into Windows and fiddled with SAM you'd have the same problems ;) [14:21] actually...I actually know how to do that somewhat :) [14:21] Masters, yes [14:21] Masters: So you removed those two lines from the pam.d/common-auth file? [14:22] yes wing [14:22] the problem I was having was that whenever the computer locked [14:22] I'd have to press switch user then put in my fingerprint [14:22] otherwise when I tried to unlock, said I couldn't gain access at this time [14:23] so I said screw it, I removed the lines I put in common-auth and rebooted [14:23] then I got this [14:23] ubuntu-ir [14:23] Fair enough. [14:23] I ust don't understand why this happend [14:24] I changed back exactly what I did [14:24] Masters: But yeah, my advice is what I said above, should fix it. If it's still not working after a pass reset then something else is wrong, but the livecd/chroot will still allow you to investigate and fix without having to reinstall [14:24] ubuntu-ir [14:25] ahmad: stop [14:25] ahmad: /join #ubuntu-ir [14:25] whats the command again wing? [14:25] I'm in a terminal in the livecd [14:25] chroot? [14:25] If the drive is mounted you can chroot /dev/sdx [14:25] no you can't [14:25] you chroot a file system - not a device file [14:25] no such file or directory [14:25] eg: chroot /mnt/chroot - not /dev/sda [14:26] ikonia: Yeah, sorry, my bad [14:26] Masters: x would have been the correct number :P [14:26] But yeah, what ikonia said [14:26] Mount it and then chroot the mount point [14:26] Hello everyone, I can't use Flash says it crashed...Ubuntu 10.04 LTS anyone know why? using FireFox and Opera [14:26] Bob__: flash is known to have a lot of issues with various configurations [14:27] ikonia thanks..any hints what to do a replacement perhaps? [14:27] there isn't a replacment [14:27] html5 perhaps [14:27] Ouch [14:27] it's a closed soured product, that's why it has a lot of bugs as it's hard to intergrate %100 sucessfully [14:27] sourced [14:28] Isn't most of Youtube Flash based?

I thought I had lost access to IRC when TWC stopped offering [14:33] MonkeyDust does it mean disable NAT?

[15:10] tim167: are you me? ;) [15:11] wingot: yes i log in bt it is terminal [15:11] wingot: yes i want gui [15:11] Sounds like you're looking to get xorg to auto start (gdm or similar) [15:11] ikonia, 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 gone [15:12] Wubi wont execute: get the following: end of central directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes on disk of a multi-part archive === Guest7179 is now known as pfsmorigo [15:12] RrahulChavan: What happens if you type 'startx'? [15:12] RrahulChavan: ah sorry I didn't see right, it was you directing a question to me, though I don't know why... [15:12] tim167: lol, you're going senile dude [15:13] wingot: yes i ve no xorg support graphics card till i'm running from last 2 month ok bt compiz command made problem [15:13] wingot: just getting used to this interface [15:13] tim167: irssi? === knorr_ is now known as fuddel [15:14] Wubi wont execute: get the following: end of central directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes on disk of a multi-part archive [15:14] RrahulChavan: So xorg starts with startx? [15:14] tim167: i want help so [15:14] If it does then you just need gdm or similar at that point. === car is now known as fuddel3 [15:14] wingot: nah, just Empathy, but it looks different than before here [15:14] wingot; no i ve not tried startX [15:16] RrahulChavan: ok, me too, no problem, i just didn't see why that question would be more likely to be answered by me than someone else here... it doesn't look like anything I would know better... [15:16] wingot - I uninstalled my old drivers and yet it still wont boot with - Input Not Supported - any ideas? [15:16] oneiric oncelot tim167 [15:16] /auit [15:16] wingot: bt i ve gdm also xfce [15:17] Can someone help me fix this? [15:17] yes post it Colin969 [15:17] Colin969 RrahulChavan Sorry, I'm not an xorg pro, I use ubuntu servers :) [15:17] Although I really should get ubuntu back on my laptop ... [15:18] My Geforce 7600 GS wont boot into my HDD, Nor boot Ubuntu [15:18] so..about my keyboard layout: The key to the left of my right Shift key has these characters: é ö - what layout do I have? [15:18] I uninstalled the old drivers too, its not defaulting to 640X800... [15:18] wingot: no i just want to get log in as normal window to be be appear beacause it turns in black after processing window [15:18] LjL: The key to the left of my right Shift key has these characters: é ö - any idea? [15:18] is their a way to ssh without being prompted for my local key passphrase? [15:19] RrahulChavan: From my point of view (as a server junky) logging in on a console window *is* "log in as a normal window" ;) [15:19] Anyone - Would installing the cards driver whilst on an older card allow it to work? [15:19] ikonia, affirmative... the dd solved the problems [15:19] ssh without prompts? [15:20] Someone? [15:20] metasansana: Yes, there is. [15:20] By not setting local key passphrases. [15:20] :/ [15:20] Is that secure? [15:20] If the local private key has a passphrase you'll need to put it in. [15:20] Only makes sense ;) [15:21] wingot:so ive to pu only *is* after terminal log in As $ *is* is thaat [15:21] Depends 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] how do I figure out my keyboard layout...? anyone? [15:21] Is the local passpharse just for encryption or something wingot? [15:21] If it's for the account that can sudo to get root AND you're storing the private key somewhere public: Definitely not. [15:22] And then "secure" is a sliding scale between the two. [15:22] I'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] metasansana: The local passphrase prevents the private key being used by someone without the passphrase. [15:22] wingot: ok I just want to copy a hosts file between my machines [15:22] metasansana: This is happening on a routine basis? [15:23] hey wing I put back in the fingerpring stuff, gonna see if it works [15:23] wingot: yes every reboot [15:23] Masters: Have fun. [15:23] metasansana: 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. [15:24] Hey all, I was fiddling with window managers, to try a new one, and I installed gnome-shell and gnome-session. I don't like it, and I can't get back to my old window manager, metacity. I can't even use gnome-shell, because it's super slow - 5 minutes for a window to appear. I'm on IRSSI in TTY atm. Please help, I'd just like to get back to metacity! I've tried un-installing gnome-shell and gnome-session from TTY, and then I can't do anything at all. I trie [15:24] I always wondered why more companies don't releast linux specific software and games, I mean the marketplace is out there [15:24] With a setup like that you can (reasonably) safely have no passphrase. [15:24] wingot: I got you, but without shell? [15:24] wingot: so ive to put only *is* after terminal log in As $ *is* is that [15:24] metasansana: Copying a file doesn't require a shell ;) [15:25] Ok but im using a cron job [15:25] The IRC guidelines link in the topic goes to a 500 Internal Server Error page :-/ (want to make sure I know the correct etiquette before reposting my question :P ) [15:25] is there a hotkey to pull up the gnome-shell notifications instead of moving the mouse pointer to bottom right corner? [15:25] RrahulChavan: Sorry, no idea what you mean [15:25] and a script so yeah === robhu is now known as RobHu [15:25] whe your done with him wing something weird, but not bad has come up [15:25] wingot: you solved my problem though thanks! [15:25] RobHu: Seems ok to me, this where it goes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [15:26] it accepts my password typed in now, but when the screen locks, I put my password in, but it just keeps saying "checking..." [15:26] metasansana: Is there a reason you can't use rsync for this purpose btw? [15:26] DJones: I get Internal Server Error for that page [15:26] I have to put my password in a second time to get back in [15:26] salam [15:26] wingot: I never used it before [15:26] not bad because it will let me in, just weird [15:26] kasi adres fonto midone [15:27] wingot: the machine is kind of a gateway so I want to limit the services on it [15:27] ubuntu 11.10 darm [15:27] If I install the new drivers on the old card, will they work when I swear cards? [15:27] Pressuming the old drivers are uninstalled [15:27] wingot: no i m getting to log in terminal to gui should to i use $ *is* or complete as mention logging in on a console window *is* "log in as a normal window" ;) [15:27] wow wing, your popular [15:28] Anyone? =/ [15:28] DJones: In Firefox that link works, but not in Chrome ?! [15:28] RobHu: A cut and paste from the page into pastebin to help for now http://pastebin.com/HnHDWzTg I guess just a dodgy route somewhere from your end to the server [15:28] how can I tell what keyboard layout I have based on the location of letters/symbols on it? [15:28] Srs, nobody can help? [15:28] DJones: No, it works in Firefox for me but not Chrome on the Mac [15:28] RobHu: I'm using chromium at my end [15:28] Colin969: what card exactly [15:28] font farsi for ubuntu? [15:29] Geforce 7600 GS - AGP8X [15:29] DJones: Restarted Chrome, same result [15:29] Well I have a 7300GT, all i get is two seperate x Screens [15:29] Huh? [15:30] Colin969: sorry Im using the most current drivers I used the old ones before [15:30] metasansana - I get Input Not Supported on my monitor, Im pressuming I need to install drivers beforehand [15:30] RrahulChavan: No, me going *is* was putting emphasis on the word, it's not a command I was saying to run :P [15:30] Colin969: are you using nvidia's drivers? [15:31] metasansana Im using no drivers. [15:31] is there an ubuntu channel for MacIntel/EFI boot? [15:31] Masters: Sorry. Yeah, no idea why it's hanging now, but you've fixed the password auth ;) [15:31] That looks more like gdm having an issue communicating with pam (or having an issue continuing after authing). [15:32] oh well it WORKS [15:32] Colin969: I dont understand is it a new install or a new card you put in? [15:32] if I have to put in password twice, oh well [15:32] Heh [15:32] I;'ll just use a shorter password :) [15:32] metasansana - Just new card. [15:32] wingot: then what command i type in terminal window As After s@s $ ? [15:32] Colin969: Oh your worried that the old drivers may be replaced? [15:32] DJones: Would you possibly be able to help me with my problem please? [15:32] RrahulChavan: No idea, as I said I don't know much about xorg and the gdm's [15:33] ok [15:33] metasansana - No, I have no drivers but it wont even boot in 640x800 [15:33] lshw shows my graphics card as "unclaimed", it's SiS and I have the SiS Video Driver package installed. How do I "claim" the card? [15:33] RobHu: Only thing I can think of is that there is a dns problem on the browsers, as for your main question, just ask it in the channel and if somebody is able to help, I'm sure they'll jump in with a suggestion [15:34] OK thanks [15:34] I'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] Colin969: you dont have an onboard graphic chipset? [15:34] Now when there's no xorg.conf.. [15:34] metasansana - No. [15:35] metasansana - If I install the Geforce 7600 GS Drivers whilst using my old card will the new card then work - Thats what Im asking [15:35] Colin969: I cant say but you could always try [15:36] metasansana - Guess so. [15:36] Colin969: just make back ups of your modules [15:36] metasansana - Modules? === rawr is now known as UbuntuNewbie [15:36] hello [15:36] please someone are already used pepperspot ?

How can it be possible that I'm booted then?! [15:37] im farma kanada [15:37] metasansana - Why? Im using my old card without drivers anyway [15:37] the graphic drivers should be in the /lib/modules folder [15:37] Every partition is marked as "Linux raid autodetect" [15:37] RobHu: grub doensn't need the bootable flag [15:37] Colin969: just a precaution, but if you know what your doing then just try [15:37] Doesn't it? oh [15:38] Ugh [15:38] It installs my old cards.... [15:38] zykotick9: OK, so I don't need to mark bootable then. On upgrade I am being told "The GRUB boot loader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present" .. shall I install to sda and sdb or md1 and md2 or all four? [15:38] Where are the folders?

[15:41] Hi! [15:41] Colin969: See from what I gather there is supposed to be a default graphic driver [15:41] HI [15:41] Colin969: that kicks in when the video fails [15:42] metasansana - Cards should go into 640x800 if theres no drivers anyway... [15:42] Colin969: just try and see what happens [15:43] Colin969: thats the best I can suggest with these nvidia cards [15:43] Downloading some drivers... [15:43] Will they install anyway?

Basically, I've got a problem with my window manager. I installed gnome-shell and gnome-session to have a change from metacity/compiz, and now I can't get back to metacity! I'm so stuck. If I try to use gnome-shell, it's super slow to the extent taht it's unusable. If I uninstall from tty or recovery console, then i can't login at all! All I want is to be able to get back to my lovely metacity :(. I [16:30] ActionParsnip: You know these things! ^ :3 [16:30] schnuffle, thanks, i installed the packages, change the openbox config files, but doenst work [16:30] Hi, can someone help me with the vipw command.

[16:31] <[wwe]coreGUI> hey oCean: i edited the sshd_config file and motd file. But when i login again it is showing the old motd and last login time. I edited it in root user [16:31] Colin969: might want to try pretting ctrl, atl, F1 and work in the terminal off the liveCD and work from there [16:31] terrence: are you SURE you want to edit that file ? [16:32] i wass happy first [16:32] schnuffle, yes, but for example, other programs that open filemanager dont open it with thunar [16:32] induz: you could try dvd95 [16:32] cromag: Yes, i'm setting up a svn repo [16:32] eFfeM: then just make a series of "sudo apt-get install " [16:32] then i got sound and everything but now i get error when i try to activate the ati driver [16:32] mang0: use Unity2D session, will enable you to get things squared [16:32] ubuntu, tried that but the apt-get install hddtemp keeps asking, now trying to predefine a value with debconf-set-selections [16:32] Pitroadrush: Yeah, I don't think that's supported anymore [16:33] tarrence: it seems to be vi by default on my box at least. so :wq would write and quit [16:33] <[wwe]coreGUI> hey everyone, i edited the sshd_config file and motd file. But when i login again it is showing the old motd and last login time. I edited it in root user [16:33] <[wwe]coreGUI> What should i do then? [16:33] [wwe]coreGUI: did you restart the service after editting the file? [16:33] ActionParsnip: Can you please explain how? Sorry, I've not used sessions and stuff before :/ this was just a test from gnome2 to gnome-shell, but it's unusable. I'm going to install a VBOX and play with different stuff when I get this fixed. [16:33] it's usually whatever $EDITOR is set to [16:33] how can i scan repair problems fast in Ubuntu like a recovery mode? [16:33] tarrence: or escape, then [16:33] :wq [16:33] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: Its a server. Should i restart it? [16:33] theme is not supported, guess move to diff site [16:33] mang0: its an option in lightdm [16:33] eFfeM: ok, wtf are you trying to do, using what, and to what ends? [16:34] ActionParsnip: Lol - lightdm? XD sorry, noob alert! [16:34] [wwe]coreGUI: just the service, yes so the config is re-read [16:34] BloGtk is not for ubuntu 10.4 [16:34] mang0: the graphical thing you log into when the system turns on [16:34] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: ok [16:34] Hello all.

[16:34] anyone know any cool little tools for linux I can play with? :) [16:34] cromag: hmmm maybe its weird cause I'm shh'd in from osx terminal but I dont have the ability to type commands and esc doesnt do anything. Ctrl + C seemed to save it now I need to figure out how to quit [16:35] Masters: gcc? :) [16:35] ActionParsnip: I just ran "lightdm" from TTY2, and it says that I've not got it installed O.o [16:35] [wwe]coreGUI: the file isn't read on the fly, so the service needs restarting so the config is read and the new settings applied [16:35] am installing now [16:35] Master airack-ng ^^ [16:35] ok, i have no idea what editor that is [16:35] I'm running ubuntu 10.04, and i'm not using ubuntu one (disabled it from startup) yet ubuntuone-syncdaemon is running and eating CPU. what's up with that?

[16:35] doesn'r airack-ng just use brute force password cracking? [16:36] ActionParsnip: You mean the session options (like recovery console, classic ubuntu, etc)? [16:36] tarrence: ah :) [16:36] I have to add an extra HDDrive to my rxisting ubuntu 10.4 system...that HDD has Xp on it... is it possible to just add that HDD as a slave?? [16:36] warfaren: you have to un-install it. don't worrk, I have a similar problem where it eats 3GB of RAM [16:36] which makes it useless against anyone who isn't stupid?

[16:36] schnuffle, thanks [16:36] induz: should be fine, you'll nee dto partition it and may need to add entries in fsta to mount the partitions at boot [16:36] Multbrelch: you want an encrypted partition, so just encrypt it using what ever is there. [16:37] schnuffle, ;) [16:37] induz: that's a hardware thing [16:37] ubuntu, ah okay ... so u would suggest using this easy 'disk utility' tool, right? [16:37] some one got -yeoworks-ubuntu-solutions ? pls send me, its my last hope before i install windows again.... [16:37] suprised anyone uses aircrack, web access is cheeeeap [16:37] eFfeM: yes, and all you need to do is make a text file, enter the series of commands to run, make it executable, and run it [16:37] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: You shouldn't kick me.. which service should i restart. ssh service or anyother service related to motd? [16:38] warfaren: yes, or synaptic. "sudo apt-get purge " [16:38] ubuntu, if I just type on the command line: apt-get install -y -force-yes hddtemp, I still get a question whether it needs to start as daemon [16:38] ActionParsnip, aircrack works well if it is an WEP access point [16:38] actually that is --force-yes [16:38] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: I got i have edit the /etc/default/rcS. file to prevent the overwrite [16:39] Multbrelch: if that's what is there, yes.

That gets into app specific, which is not for this channel [16:40] warfaren: welcome [16:40] ActionParsnip, absolutely right ... [16:40] ActionParsnip: I installed lightdm. So now I'm going to reboot, and choose "unity 2D" if the option is there, right? If not, i'll be back later - gotta popout for a bit [16:40] when i try to activate the ati graphich card it says read jok.txt [16:40] :) [16:40] etc [16:40] just problem [16:40] warfaren: what if you stop the daemon? Rebooting may hang waiting for the daemon to stop too so you may need to hold the power button to hard off it it gets confused [16:41] jockey.log* [16:41] joke.txt [16:41] :P [16:41] Guest97033: close enough to english...those are driver issues.

[17:44] * l057c0d3r_ oh well.. format like windows and start over [17:44] 'cause now I can't get adb working the same way as I've done before.

[17:46] avani121241: why not just install using the mini iso, then just install what you want, rather then trying to remove things. [17:46] ./adb kill-server [17:46] sudo ./adb start-server [17:46] avani121241: removing metapackages doesn't remove the packages they install, they are hollow nothings [17:46] mini iso? what packages does it already have? I want bear basics [17:46] there is a lot of trafic in this channel [17:46] -desktop:~/Desktop/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools$ ./adb devices [17:46] avani121241, try gentoo :-p [17:46] !mini [17:46] The 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/MinimalCD [17:46] it comes with NOTHING [17:47] avani121241: kernel, drivers, bootloader, basic packaging tools [17:47] but the required stuff.. [17:47] Demonstrate: bash: ./adb: File or directory doesn't exist [17:47] did you point it to the correct folder? [17:47] wow that sounds interesting, glad i checked in with you people [17:47] android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools$ ./adb devices [17:47] Yes. [17:47] thanx a lot for the help, I will look into that and ask y [17:47] mhm [17:47] yall if i have any doubts [17:47] I think I did. [17:47] have you tried not adding a bash command? [17:47] i loved my gentoo box. but moved to lubuntu because of synaptic / apt-get being much faster and i mean MUCH faster [17:47] linky any1? [17:47] Nope. [17:47] and just using the folder instead? === falkaling is now known as Zizek [17:48] Nope. [17:48] How bad do you want Bash? [17:48] anyone can help with starting a boot repair. my linux loads up only, and not windows 7 even though they are on separate drives [17:48] avani121241: 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 OS [17:48] because all that bash command does is remove the need to navigate to the ploatform-tools/ folder [17:48] Right. [17:48] hmmmm, Action can u gimme a link [17:48] ? [17:49] export PATH=$PATH{}:/path/to/android-sdk/tools:/path/to/android/platform-tools [17:49] avani121241: to what? [17:49] try that for me would you Umeaboy [17:49] to mini iso version of ubuntu [17:49] ActionParsnip: (i'd never recommned it to anyone but..)

[17:49] yeah.. i've narrowed the problem down on this ubuntu setup [17:49] Umeaboy: my guess is your path is wrong [17:49] 10.10 [17:49] usc isnt working because aptitude is not working [17:50] soo the real question.. how to install a fresh copy of aptitude... [17:50] Demonstrate: Here's what locate adb gives me: http://pastebin.com/YFF4a8MT [17:50] avani121241: you do realise maveric is EOL when Precise is released in April? [17:50] or find out what is causing aptitude to not work [17:50] avani121241: which arch do you want? [17:50] l057c0d3r_: seeing as Ubuntu doesn't even ship aptitude by default anymore, i don't think that's your issue [17:50] can you elaborate a little more? [17:50] err not aptitude but the apt-get [17:51] Umeaboy: it should only give you the direction to adb.sh or adb.exe whatever it is. [17:51] l057c0d3r_: can you run: sudo apt-get update and pastebin the output. [17:51] i386 arch [17:51] yeah one sec [17:51] first and foremost thankyou for being here 2nd please to forgive the winoze related problem but it is two sided, its only out of comeplete necesity that i will be dual booting into vista and ubuntu 11.10 however i have many driver problems on the vista side i dont want help with that just simply want to know if using ubuntus drivers in windoze is even remoetly possible before i begin my hunt could youplease just tell me straight yes o [17:51] avani121241: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso md5: 02abb1a71bde21a1335e9368dad529ca [17:51] budafooko what/???

[18:03] question: I am new to Ubuntu. My internet is going slow as a snail. I have 30mbps download. On the top it says I have 2 active connections and they are both on. When I play with the connectin [18:03] Yes. [18:03] can i get the ubuntu source files? [18:03] Hmmmmmmmmmmm. [18:03] connection settings it speeds up [18:03] Shouldn't that output say? [18:03] right click properties "executable" [18:03] nafcool: "apt-get source packagename" will give you source for any package in ubuntu [18:03] On the adb-file? OK. [18:03] yeah the adb [18:03] nafcool: sure, there are all the sources of the packages in the repos [18:04] Is there a way to manually install drivers for Windows, via Ubuntu? [18:04] colin969: i really doubt it. [18:04] I double-checked. [18:04] virus how are you determining that your network connection is slow? [18:04] nafcool: if you look in /etc/apt/sources.list you will see 'src-deb' repos as well as the 'deb' binary ones [18:04] I have the rights. [18:04] colin no, but you can download the drivers and install them from windows... [18:04] i get an error: nvidia: wrong # of devices in RAID set nvidia_afdiaeja 1/2 on /dev/sda [18:05] Umeaboy, so even when you're in the folder that has adb, it refuses to run? [18:05] when we type something ubuntu automatically checks and marks the folders and files as selected [18:05] because everything I download i could have downloaded on windows 25 times [18:05] sudo sh ./adb ? [18:05] I wanna read this code. [18:05] Yes. [18:05] can I do so? [18:05] Hold on. [18:05] nafcool: that's probably in Nautilus, since Nautilus is Ubuntu's file manager, so "apt-get source nautilus" [18:05] that's weird. try doing it from the ctrl+alt+f1 terminals [18:05] ActionParsnip: Is it possible that the gnome-session has removed all the other sessions?! O.o [18:05] LjL, Mabye this will help - When I login via Ubuntu It gives me a blank background [18:06] LjL, when I use Ubuntu 2D, It loads fine, On Win7, It doesnt [18:06] merlin_: check this thread, lots of useful information: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1802854 [18:06] Umeaboy: 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-server [18:06] http://pastebin.com/c44vC5H1 [18:06] colin969: are you the one who previously couldn't boot at all because of the video card or something? [18:06] Umeaboy: then run sudo adb --start-server [18:06] try what cvance said [18:07] colin969: if so, i'd start thinking whether your video card's hardware is misbehaving. [18:07] ./adb: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") [18:07] that means that its working umeaboy [18:07] LjL, that seemed to be GRUB Giving me that, I can memorise boot order, So I can select OS [18:07] ActionParsnip: Or, would updating to 11.10 fix it? Using the command it tells me in TTY - get release upgrade thingy [18:07] yeah unfortunately SCARLEO, i have been on there all day [18:07] colin969: still, if *both* Windows and Ubuntu don't seem to work correctly with your video card... [18:07] LjL, It runs perfectly besides that, SO Confused [18:08] LjL, Ubuntu 2D Does... [18:08] mang0: possibly, yes [18:08] colin969: right, Ubuntu 2D doesn't use the more advanced capabilities of your video card [18:08] merlin_: 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] http://pastebin.com/AVEWusZA [18:08] LjL, Windows doesnt have a similair option [18:08] colin969: have you tried running some 3D thing, like just glxgears, and seeing if they work properly? [18:08] Umeaboy sorry remembered wrong syntax, sudo ./adb kill-server [18:09] Umeaboy and sudo ./adb start-server [18:09] LjL, That come default, or shall I sudo? [18:09] can somebody point me to the source file which contains intructions for automatic search in Nautilus [18:09] please [18:09] colin969: not sure [18:09] I can't get anything to run, boot repair. I tried reinstalling linux, and im fed up. [18:09] Umeaboy:do you see adb is working? [18:09] best thing i heard so far is repair disk and it wont continue operation [18:09] you just have to run it now [18:09] with root privilages [18:09] ActionParsnip: 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] sup [18:10] Demonstrate: I gave him the wrong syntax for the adb server, I think he's running the commands again [18:10] Ah, alright yeah at first he couldnt even get adb to output anythng [18:10] merlin_: No this is done from your windows install disk [18:10] LjL, The NVIDIA AGD V173 driver is apparently in use. [18:11] can anyone help with the dual connection issue I am having. None of the bars move when downloading until I play with the network settings [18:11] hmmmm. ok i will try that than, i will return let ya know if it worked [18:11] it says i have 2 wired connections [18:11] is h [18:11] is that normal [18:11] virus do you have two lan connections? [18:11] http://pastebin.com/wP2MPuWh [18:11] cvance no i dont [18:11] So it doesn't work the same way as before. [18:12] because the bash isnt setup? [18:12] Umeaboy you need to run ./adb because the platform-tools directory isn't in your $PATH variable [18:12] ^ [18:12] Umeaboy: has to be ./adb NOT adb [18:13] Umeaboy run this command without quotes "sudo ./adb kill-server && sudo ./adb start-server" [18:13] Umeaboy then you can pick up doing whatever you and Demonstrate are working on [18:14] cvance: That worked [18:14] cvance he just wants to set a bash path so he only has to type "adb" and linux will recognize the full path. [18:14] LjL, GLX Gears works. [18:14] Umeaboy okay so I guess you two can carry on [18:14] for temporary access [18:14] Umeaboy what is the output of pwd? [18:14] mang0: Natty is EOL in October 2012 [18:15] /home/kristoffer/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools [18:15] one moment [18:15] LjL? [18:15] cvance: Read my previous post for output. [18:15] export PATH=$PATH:/home/kristoffer/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools [18:15] that will append the path temporarily [18:16] echo $PATH now says: [18:16] /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/kristoffer/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb:/home/kristoffer/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools [18:16] And adb is working. [18:16] colin969: still sounds like a hardware problem to me. there is a benchmark program called "glmark2", perhaps try that and see if anything weird happens [18:16] lol, it appears that you might have appended $PATH already [18:16] Thanks a whole lot.

[19:08] Is there a way to bring up a console within the gui [19:09] I'd assume there is, some comparative to commandprompt etc. [19:10] I can't get cheese to launch, anyone know what might be wrong? [19:10] Sam86: if you wanted a gui, why didn't you install the desktop OS [19:10] Guest37428: add the medibuntu repo and install w32codecs (or w64codecs if you have 64bit OS) [19:10] Because I'm foolish? [19:11] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: Do you know how to disable certain commands say 'rm', 'chmod' and all? I dont want to delete them. But for the contest i want to disable it! [19:11] Sam86: just seems backward, that's all. [19:11] Does the gui have a different layout on the desktop version ActionParsnip ? [19:11] [wwe]coreGUI: you could make an alias. Not sure how it would affect other apps though.. [19:11] any admins on? [19:11] LjL, Any other Ideas? [19:11] hi guys [19:11] Sam86: its the same thing. [19:11] k, So any idea how to get a console open? [19:12] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: Hope that it will work!

[19:13] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: If i make an alias the contest can know by reading .bashrc file right? Otherwise when they ssh they will come to know the .bashrc cannot be read no permissions! As i am running a banner it will look odd! eww [19:13] fabiobik: yes, dd its a command [19:13] <[wwe]coreGUI> *not contest contestant [19:14] [wwe]coreGUI: bashrc will need to be made readable and executable, just not writable by the owner ;) [19:15] Im getting: "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0"." does anyone know how to fix this? [19:15] <[wwe]coreGUI> ActionParsnip: That's a new information. Thankyou! .bashrc should i set the executable permission for the user only or ? [19:15] ActionParsnip: for example i have an file whatever.dmg and i want to make it bootable via usb [19:16] how to "burn" an dmg file to a usb [19:16] make it bootable [19:17] Sorry to ask another question, but any idea why root doesn't have privileges to run route on a default install?

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 f [19:21] hello I have problem during installation. I created partitions, and when I want to select "Device for boot loader installatio" my special partition /boot, button "OK" desactivates [19:21] whats wrong? [19:21] If anyone can help me please do [19:22] where it the partition manager? [19:22] I have a problem with pidgin autostart, it shows "waiting for internet connection" and it never connects to accounts cose of that, I have to restart it manualy. I guess it's because pidgin starts before connection is established, and than it blocks somehow, any way to fix that ? [19:22] jNovice, so why a boot partition, or is it pointed at the root of ubuntu? [19:23] !gparted [19:23] gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [19:23] how to open gparted? [19:23] urlin2u I follow this tutorial http://edwinmeyer.com/LenovoUbuntuWin7DualBoot.html [19:23] Badman, needs to be installed in a install, otherwise it is on a live cd, serach with the dash. [19:24] i'd like to know something from ubuntu experts [19:24] I need to ask something. [19:24] okay, so here's what I'm trying to do [19:24] urlin2u look at section "Complete the Ubuntu Installation" in this tutorial [19:25] I want to clear up a different partition to install windows as dual boot on it (currently it was installed as single partition ubuntu), how do I do it? [19:25] jNovice, you want the easybcd bootloader right? [19:25] hola === miguel is now known as Guest87377 [19:25] que tal linuxero [19:25] hi guys, I am having a little problem. my server is setup and everything and I added a user to the sudoers list. when I connect via ssh with that user I can sudo, however when someone else tries it, it doesn't accept the password. anyone has any clue? (made sure that the password was written correctly) [19:26] interesting, the itstallation went up to installing grub!!! [19:26] rebe: make an autostart "script with sleep 30 && pidgin &" [19:27] I have a question, plz someone tell if can answer me. [19:27] Badman, you can't change the ubuntu paertition while using it if this is part of the problem, you leaving out some details here, a screenshot of gparted may help with your goal included. [19:27] trinitas: just ask your question in the channel [19:27] sexypants [19:27] urlin2u easybcd is next step [19:28] oCean: I did'n want to be ignored, I've been struggling 2 days with this already. [19:28] now I;m in installer and I can't select my /boot as ‘Device for boot loader installation’ [19:28] jNovice, just point the grub at the ubuntu root it is not a boot partition. Do you have a single partition for ubuntu or a seperate home? [19:29] how do i create a publickey? [19:29] trinitas: asking to ask a question is not going to help you. Describe your issue detailed in single line, and repeat every 15 minutes or so [19:29] aidrocsid: do you mean an ssh public key? [19:29] ya [19:30] aidrocsid: ssh-keygen -t rsa (or -t dsa if that's what you want) [19:30] what's the difference?

TL;DR "I want to install windows as dual-boot" [19:31] @urlin2u [19:31] oCean: I was trying to install Ubuntu into a Flash drive 8GB. I noticed everything looks there even /boot part, not sure about the MBR section. However the install process failed at the stage that says 'Configuring Hardware' I want to knoww whether it'd be still bootable!! [19:31] Or what does the 'Configuring Hardware' part do. [19:31] aidrocsid: there's lot of documentation about that, for example http://superuser.com/questions/13164/what-is-better-for-gpg-keys-rsa-or-dsa [19:31] cool [19:31] Badman, you need to use a live cd to shrink the ubuntu then install windows. [19:31] do you have experience with x11vnc? [19:32] hello, does anybody know which is the better way to have a personalized os loader (i mean, to have a grub with an specific images and personalized text, so i can edit the entries of each os, and also translate things into spanish)? [19:32] urlin2u old version live cd of ubuntu will do? [19:32] I get a null message when i try to connect, but when I use ubuntu's built-in desktop sharing it works fin [19:32] Badman, you really have no room for this depending on the windows version, you have your HD as full as it really should be for best use. [19:33] i don't think i can start the built-in vnc over ssh though [19:33] Badman, any live ubuntu or gparted cd will work. [19:33] urlin2u : I just cleared up 50GB. I have 10.04 ubuntu's live cd. My ubuntu's version is 11.04 [19:33] Badman, cd doesn't mater your just using gparted. [19:34] urlin2u: okay get back to you after log in from live cd [19:34] Badman, if you plan to move the front of ubuntu you will need to reload grub to the mbr unless you change the fstab from a UUID= to a /dev/sdaX [19:35] jNovice, hows it going? [19:35] <[wwe]coreGUI> Does anyone knows how to always turn off the aslr bit? [19:36] Can someone help me get x11vnc working? I get a null message [19:38] oCean: I was trying to install Ubuntu into a Flash drive 8GB. I noticed everything looks there even /boot part, not sure about the MBR section.

I would like to preserve the home, and just mount it. Is this possible? [19:47] AlbertoP, what was the OS the home xcomes from? [19:47] opensuse [19:47] AlbertoP, not a good idea really, use a ubuntu home, [19:48] I don't want to transfer all the data. I can create a different user however [19:48] humm [19:48] i get this error when try to format an usb disk === david is now known as Guest37918 [19:48] urlin2u: are you suggesting there will be problems in managing the partition, or just due to user's settings? [19:50] AlbertoP, I'm guessing but I have heard suggested on this channel that sharing a home from another os can be problematic. [19:50] Is it possible to enbale global menu only when window is maximized ? [19:50] actually it should not, but what I don't know is how things are managed by the ubuntu installer. Does it support mounting a LUKS home? :) [19:50] AlbertoP, not sure as well in the encrypt being read.

Now when I try to remove "unity-2d" using apt-get it wants to install things like compiz and unity. How can I uninstall unity-2d without installng new unwanted software? [20:09] Daneshar your wireless router should broadcast your SSID, you click it and ubuntu connects [20:10] louisdk: as far as I know Ubuntu TV uses compiz and unity [20:10] but i want to connect nearest broadband ! [20:11] how to on launch fortran [20:11] I need some help here - trying to install a driver into ndiswrapper on 12.04, but it keeps saying "Fatal: Module ndiswrapper is not found" - do I need to make a custom kernel?

Now I just want to remove unity-2d without apt-get promting to install unity and compiz as depencies. I already have Xfce on the machine so I don't need Unity. [20:15] Does anyone know of a (non-empty) IRC channel for make questions? [20:15] louisdk you shoul look forward to install Xubuntu [20:15] I did it because I do not like Unity [20:16] bcj I fancy that any answer about make is on google :) === juancarlos is now known as Guest93649 [20:16] Pakalatak: This one is a bit "awkward", not entirely sure how to search for it without getting false hits [20:17] I basically have a shell command that I want to assign to a variable, but it's non-trivial [20:17] Let's just say that the following doesn't work and I can't figure out what needs to be escaped and where: PYTHON_INCLUDE_PATH = $(shell $(dirname $(find $(which python | sed 's/bin\/python/include/') -type f -name 'Python.h'))) [20:18] I recently heard about something called a packet sniffer, what is that? [20:18] Pakalatak: I've Xu buntu on the box with unity-2d installed afterwords. Anyway uninstalled gnome-session and now I can easly remove unity-2d without having to install unity. [20:18] gplikespie, wireshark [20:18] do i even need a swap partition> [20:19] ? [20:19] gplikespie, it grabs packets and tries to determine the mac (usually) for breeching into networks [20:19] datruth_, if you want to hibernate yes [20:19] oh, so i take it that that is not a good thing [20:19] packets, as in the information in a wireless transmission [20:19] hibernate? urlin2u can the swap partition be formatted after install I dont believe I selected format during install === aardigegozerd is now known as knuffelhond [20:20] gplikespie, there are legal reasons for using, but not nothing the average person can do, and can be wired but are usually use for wireless transmissions [20:20] gplikespie: "packet" is not synonymous with wireless comms [20:20] ah, thanks. [20:20] datruth_, yes, but you have limitations on partition amounts on a single mbr HD, is the ubuntu in a extended? [20:21] datruth_, if you did a auto install a swap was made. [20:21] urlin2u: no I've wiped my drive and installing ubuntu onit 11.10 how much swap space is recommended? [20:21] no I created the swap in the advanced tab [20:21] datruth_, equal to the ram. [20:21] gave it 2gb [20:21] oh [20:22] bcj: usually elaborate shell questions get better answers in #bash [20:22] if I have 12gb of ram then I need 12gb of swap space? [20:22] guntbert: It's not a shell question, but I'll try there anyway [20:22] guntbert: Cheers [20:22] datruth_, probably not, lets get other opinions here. [20:23] ? [20:23] bcj: why not just: pkg-config --cflags python [20:23] hello [20:23] datruth_: only if you want to "supend to disk" [20:23] *suspend [20:23] guntbert: what does that mean? [20:24] trism: Because that doesn't work [20:24] * datruth_ prepares to re-install for the 3rd time === Guest15204 is now known as KreaTor [20:24] i have 12gb of ram so should I have a 12gb of swap partition? [20:25] bcj: then install python-dev [20:25] datruth_, you can resize=shrink the ubuntu partition using gparted on the live cd for more swap space. [20:25] sorry, but is there a topic on "IRC server"? [20:25] datruth_: 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 quick [20:25] trism: I don't have root privileges on the system [20:25] urlin2u: ahh ok that might save a re-format-reinstall [20:25] im using the dd comand [20:25] datruth_, yeah [20:25] guntbert: gotcha [20:25] but i dont see any output [20:26] trism: Plus installing something to find a path is rather heavy-handed when all I want is the right escape character [20:26] Im using dd comand but i dont see any output [20:26] alrighty I'll extend the swap space after install finishes [20:26] its that normal?

[21:13] abhinavmehta: you can purge the apt-cacher cache if you want to [21:13] HebusLeTroll but hibernation will probably make your system and/or connection unstable [21:13] jutnux: If it's standalone I can compile. But it sounds like it interfaces with X, and I'd hate to ruin X. That would make my computer unusable. I was wondering if there were PPAs.

[21:15] urlin2u, i look at it, thanks [21:15] yes it does :) [21:15] and than start using locally…prior it fetches anything from remote-mirros. [21:15] HebusLeTroll, what is your swap to ram? [21:15] guntbert: Aha!

[21:17] urlin2u, i already tried the tip in your link, it does nothing. and as you say LOCK should not affect work (that's why i think ubuntu does a logout just before s3 stanby...) [21:18] abhinavmehta: did you add it as an apt-proxy? (or maybe you have to do it with the gui tools these days? I edit /etc/apt/apt.conf, but there's probably an "easier" way to do it now) [21:18] HebusLeTroll, you have a swap equal to your ram at least? [21:18] Seveas: It's quite long O.o [21:18] urlin2u, yes i have 1024kb ram and swap [21:18] merlin : sudo apt-get install name_of_updated_packet [21:19] is there a way to get rid of all these connections/disconnects from irc? [21:19] mang0, yeah, and there are some quite obvious things to check/do: get rid of screenlets, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [21:19] its so annoying [21:19] Which version of Ubuntu will support ARM (on the client-side)? [21:19] nope..I didn't dealt with apt-proxy at all… I just added AUTOSTART=1 [21:19] thats it.. [21:19] Seveas: Get rid of screenlets? Okay, why? [21:19] !netsplit| RokcStar_ [21:19] RokcStar_: 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/Netsplit [21:19] mang0, '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 cleaner [21:19] abhinavmehta: 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] Seveas: Okay [21:20] no i meant, user joined, urser left... [21:20] Seveas: I forgot to run sudo apt-get update after upgrading :P [21:20] RokcStar: thats a client configuration, what client do you have? [21:20] and I'll do ubuntu-desktop too [21:20] urlin2u, i meant Mb * [21:20] RokcStar_ in irssi you can set it to /ignore [21:20] mang0, you also seem to have tried awn, try using the default [21:20] ssta: you touched the vibe..exactly I'm thinking same…so how to configure apt-get, to look for packages in apt-cacher..? [21:20] how can I create an 50mb file for upload tests? [21:21] mang0, given that awn gives you most errors besides screenlets, just getting rid of those may fix your problem [21:21] afeijo download an iso [21:21] abhinavmehta: 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 though [21:21] hehehe, MonkeyDust there is an command just for that :) [21:21] afeijo, dd if=/dev/zero of=test.bin bs=1M count=50 [21:21] Seveas: When I was on 11.04, I ran with gnome2 and AWN dock. I've not actually tried 11.10 yet, as I've only just upgraded and it's not working, like I said. Removing AWN now [21:22] afeijo, use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/zero if you want 50mb of random data instead of NULL bytes [21:22] HebusLeTroll, 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] Seveas: What is the package name for AWN? So I can remove it... [21:23] Seveas, perfect, thanks! [21:23] HebusLeTroll, you could set up a usb thumb as a swap for testing this rather then resizing your partition.

[21:23] Seveas: K [21:23] mang0: avant-window-navigator [21:23] MonkeyDust, see? :) [21:23] HebusLeTroll: 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 it [21:24] urlin2u, but for s3 standby, it should not use swap right ? [21:24] (suspend to ram) [21:24] ssta: actually I'm new to this…so I came across this, but couldn't understand this line….I mean, why do I need this….can you plz put some more light on it.

It was the 2nd link when searching for "ubuntu getting started". [21:38] oh [21:41] I 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? [21:42] Psychoholic, using the power button is a g=hard shutdown not used except in an emergency, use the button in the top panel [21:42] hard* [21:42] right, I'm not holding it down [21:43] I'm pressing it, which brings up the shut down pop up [21:43] the same as the menua [21:43] menu* [21:43] PsyForce, ah...I see, not sure never usethe buton [21:44] jutnuxjut can u have a look at: http://pastebin.com/aZrkMGgq [21:44] someone can help me? [21:44] !ask Akiyama-san [21:44] that's not the issue, a single button press will bring up the shutdown dialogue, same as the menu...but when I hit the shutdown button in the dialogue, it goes to the login screen instead [21:44] hey Guys I just started learning c++ using turbo C++ IDE in windows , recently I started exploring programming in linux (Ubuntu) and I got Qt IDE and when started coding my programs in Qt I got stuck in console , I got the working in another IDE like netbeans .

Yesterday, i was using my pc normally, when, after closing firefox, i noticed that my wallpaper had been resetted to the ubuntu's default one. I have tried to change it back, but I couldn't. I thought that restarting the pc would solve the problem. 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 happen [21:45] anything, the same happen when trying to add seconds to the clock, for example. Someone know how to help me, please? [21:45] ekscalibour: What is it meant to be? [21:45] jutnux can u have a look @ : http://pastebin.com/aZrkMGgq [21:45] my proftpd con f file [21:45] ekscalibour: I have. What is it meant to be?

[21:46] Seveas, ok [21:46] ty anyway [21:48] Akiyama-san: noticed 'all my configs'??? besides wallpaper what? [21:48] Hi, im having issues with my sources.list. Trying to add only php5 packages from dotdeb but its unable to find Packages.gz. from configfile: "deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable php5" [21:48] almoxarife, wallpaper, gnome-shell extensions, favorites, themes, etc [21:49] tried unity, but happens the same [21:49] Akiyama-san: i am assuming you dont back up your home folder, yes? [21:50] i'm new to ubuntu- and my graphics are messed up (there's a flicker that goes on and off). i checked for a graphics driver, but they don't make one in linux [21:50] is there a way to mess with the settings? [21:50] I think I have a very old backup, but assume no [21:50] or is the default graphics driver better in v11 of ubuntu [21:50] nivyaj: Paste the output of lspci | grep VGA [21:50] nivyaj: what kind of graphics card do you have? [21:50] Hey, i am working on some permissions fo my apache config... is it necessary to allow apache access to parent dir if i want to give acccess for child dir [21:51] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) [21:51] jutnux: PsyForce (above) [21:51] almoxarife, i don care about losing my configs, just care about my files [21:51] someone wanna help with boot loader issue? been trying for while now, been here earlier, suggestions were not working. [21:51] Akiyama-san: it is strange to 'just lose' them, you sure the loss process did not get a little assistance? [21:51] can't load my windows. just loads straight into linux [21:52] almoxarife, the only thing I did yesterday was a apt-get upgrade === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [21:52] merlin__: good for you [21:52] why is that good for me [21:53] merlin__: does Windows appear as an option in the GRUB menu? [21:53] nope, they are on separate drives [21:53] Akiyama-san: when you look in your home folder you dont see the docs you created in the past? [21:54] almoxarife, my files are OK [21:54] HI WHATS THE DEFAULT UBUNTU TERMINAL FONT AND SIZE? [21:54] merlin__: when you installed, the Ubuntu installer should have seen that Windows is installed - did it? [21:54] the only problem is that i can change my system like it was [21:54] POLZO: Monospace and 10 I believe. [21:54] !caps | POLZO [21:54] POLZO: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [21:55] yeah, so it let me pick the other harddrive that was empty, so i did, but some reason i can't boot into it, and it only boots into linux from my main drive that has windows on it [21:55] Akiyama-san: ok, we are back to the configuration of your desktop then, that is all that changed [21:55] almoxarife, yes [21:55] merlin__: I'm assume others have pointed you to these, but... [21:55] So the only wifi driver I'm offered in 11.10 doesn't work. [21:55] Seveas: Sorry I quit. I've done all the stuff you said to do, should I reboot and choose the Ubuntu sessioN? [21:55] How do I access more propietary drivers? [21:56] !grub | merlin__ [21:56] merlin__: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

How can I have Unity always show side panel? Also, how do I enable "top bar always on"? [21:56] for example [21:56] jutnux: really? it doesn't seem like Monospace [21:56] but i have ubuntu 11 [21:56] damn. was just a guess Fausterion_ , sorry :P [21:56] will that matter? [21:56] POLZO: Try Ubuntu 10/11 then. [21:56] Seveas: Okay, brb then! :) [21:56] Akiyama-san: are you logging into a desktop that is not the one you usually log into? say unity2d/verses unity, or gnome simple/verser blingy? i forget the two gnome option names [21:57] now i am on unity [21:57] merlin__: you might also explore whether rescatux/supergrub would help: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ [21:57] my grub menu loads but it dont show windows. however i can access all the files and programs from linux. does this help? there has to be something. [21:57] alright i will try some things you mentioned [21:57] merlin__: GRUB2 hasn't changed significantly [21:57] Akiyama-san: now? as in you were in something else before? [21:58] test [21:58] almoxarife, I usually just use gnome-shell, I logged into unity to see if the problem happens here too [21:58] jutnux: 10 = 10 pt.? [21:58] Don't know what you're getting at mango. [21:59] Akiyama-san: gnome-shell is not unity, expect differences [21:59] I know shouldn't ask to ask, but this might be kind of lengthy so... if anyone wants to take a crack at helping me connect to an Oracle database with MDB2 I would really appreciate it. [22:00] almoxarife, I know, but the same problem happens in both [22:00] my priority is to fix the shell [22:00] Does ubuntu have a package to trun system services off [22:00] although, i thing the cause is the same for both [22:00] How can I have Unity always show side panel? Also, how do I disable "top bar" auto-hiding? (Ubuntu 11.10) [22:01] Seveas: No luck. "failed to load session 'ubuntu". :/ [22:01] northernen: Install the compiz settings manager. [22:02] * AlbertoP looks for LUKS experts [22:03] Seveas: I really want to avaiid a whole reinstall if I can :/ that's so much faf, and just from a darn window manager too! === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [22:03] avoid* [22:03] Akiyama-san: to fix it you need the backup, you dont have it, i have one last thing to recommend and i am out of answers, i assume you are in 11.10, there is a back up scheme, rather simple and effective, i use it for times just like the one you presented [22:04] Hello people. I am reading a book on apache, and I was wondering. Is the guide valid that one should have a conf a htdocs a log and a cgi-bin directory for every site? [22:04] howdy folks - how do I stop apache autostarting on boot? I ran update-rc.d -f apache2 remove; however, /etc/rc2.d/S31apache still exists - if I do, update-rc.d -f apache remove - it returns "this is not a link to apache2, not removing" - which is totally incorrect [22:04] opening the script - it clearly starts apache2 [22:04] wtf?

[22:57] !patience | ubuntunoob [22:57] ubuntunoob: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [22:57] ubuntunoob: what version of ubuntu do you have [22:57] ctcsadmin: shoot [22:57] ubottu: more importantly, stick to support. [22:57] Error: I haven't seen importantly,. [22:58] ubuntu natty [22:58] jrib: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [22:58] oops [22:58] ubuntunoob: more importantly, stick to support. [22:58] fman23, Ubuntu says it's installed, but when I try to launch it it doesn't. [22:58] ctcsadmin: open a terminal window and type in "/opt/boxee/Boxee" [22:58] ubuntunoob: and what model is your mac book [22:58] macbook pro 2,2 [22:58] and tell me if anything starts with "[Error]" [22:58] ctcsadmin: what fman23 said :) [22:59] fman23, If I type sudo apt-get update at the end it says something about cannot update apt.boxee.tv 403 forbidden [22:59] ctcsadmin: oh wait, did u try to install a repo? [22:59] ctcsadmin: boxee abanded that i thought [22:59] fman23, Why would I be forbidden, unless the links are not correct. [23:00] ctcsadmin: download the .deb and install that, and remove those lines from ur repo list [23:00] fman23, Yes, I went right to boxee.tv and downloaded the package. [23:00] fman23, is there another way to install boxee? [23:00] ctcsadmin: open a terminal window and type in "/opt/boxee/Boxee" [23:00] ctcsadmin: what version you got? ubuntu? [23:00] hi, what is the apt package to install so as to have a larger cursor or other things for partially blind people? [23:00] almoxarife, 11.10 32bit [23:01] shomon: it should be in the accessibilty section in the system settings i would think [23:01] ^ [23:01] yes, but this is for someone with lubuntu. I know they can install ubuntu packages [23:01] so I'd like to know the name of the package === mfc_coder_ is now known as x_coder [23:01] shomon vinuxproject.org is ubuntu customized for the visually impaired [23:01] is there an issue with ubuntu 11.10 64bit? [23:01] i think its the same tho [23:01] I have it system->preferences-> assistive technologies [23:01] but I can't see the name of the package [23:01] fman23, almoxarife, a friend of mine gave me a shuttle pc, so I am trying to turn it into a htpc, figured it would be perfect for it. [23:02] ctcsadmin: oh i just did that not long ago [23:02] ctcsadmin: i used xbmclive and compiled boxee for it [23:02] ah thanks Fudge [23:02] shuttle as in ...space shuttle? [23:02] ctcsadmin: but that might be a little daunting [23:02] ctcsadmin: ok first, use lxde or something lightweight so it doesnt bog it down [23:03] ctcsadmin: i have boxee on 11.04, i just did a ppa check for boxee on 11.10, didnt find one, i thought i installed it from a d/l, that what you did? [23:03] ctcsadmin: next, intall boxee like normal. finally, add "/opt/boxee/Boxee -fs" to the startup list [23:03] ubuntunoob, im not sure if this will work for u, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro6-2/Natty [23:04] almoxarife, yes, downloaded the package right from boxee.tv [23:04] ctcsadmin: and double clicked it and hit install? [23:04] shomon there is a mailing list etc too but if u like there is a channel on freenode or u can privmsg me [23:05] no thanks Fudge - I just wanted the name of the package really [23:05] fman23: if he downloaded it, he should probably check the executable bit [23:05] I installed gnome-desktop to get all that stuff.. but my friend's laptop is quite old.. I don't think it can handle more than lubuntu [23:05] ctcsadmin: try running /opt/boxee/Boxee in terminal [23:05] ctcsadmin: boxee on my htc works pretty straight forward without extra configuration, i am confused about running boxee and the error you brought up, the error is related to installing not running it [23:06] hi guys, can you swap directories between machines if using same ubuntu release? want to bring a server from ec2 down and thought about rsyncing the 2 servers for apps, users etc..? [23:06] almoxarife: im trying to c if he has it installed [23:06] fman23: cool [23:07] fman23, when I run that I get an error that says: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto [23:07] like, could i swap my ec2 /etc/ folder for my local one? [23:07] ctcsadmin: that is a good error, install libcrypto+ i tihnk [23:07] you need libcrypto ctcsadmin [23:07] !find libcrypto++ | ctcsadmin [23:07] ctcsadmin: Found: libcrypto++-dev, libcrypto++-doc, libcrypto++-utils, libcrypto++9, libcrypto++9-dbg [23:08] apt-cache search ;ibcrypto [23:08] install libcrypto++9 === nathan__ is now known as Porkminer_ [23:08] anyone any help with my question?? [23:08] bubu: what is it? [23:08] can i swap the /etc/ folder from one server to another as long as same ubuntu release? [23:08] ctcsadmin: what process did you use to install boxee? [23:09] /etc/ folder is an example there [23:09] is using a liveusb considered stable or are there known quirks that happen time and again? [23:09] bubu: yeah, i would think so. unless u have hardware specific settings in it [23:09] want to copy over all applications, users etc [23:09] Rallias, good usb key = pretty stable [23:09] almoxarife, I went to boxee.tv and I downloaded the install package. Then installed it. [23:09] almoxarife, that's all I know. [23:09] mmk thanks [23:09] Hi guys, I want to get my music on my Mac OS X partition and I don't know how to do that [23:09] hi [23:10] it always says that I don't have the permission [23:10] xbmc live ctcsadmin [23:10] also, is it possible to get the current version of banshee in the repositories to work with forked-daapd? [23:10] ctcsadmin: did u install libcrypto++9? [23:10] !ot | jeff__ [23:10] jeff__: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [23:10] ctcsadmin: its odd that the dependencies were not installed at that time [23:10] jeff__:.... OSX.. I remember it being troublesome [23:10] yeah on ubuntu it is [23:10] i assume you tried as superuser? [23:11] I finally achieved to make my brightness control work [23:11] me? no didn't try 'cause I'm kinda new to work with Ubuntu [23:11] fman23, [23:11] which folders woult you *not* copy over..? [23:12] boot / sys / proc ? [23:12] does any1 know how to fix a wubi? [23:12] yes, those three are definites [23:12] try their channel padmick1 [23:12] padmick1: yes [23:12] hmm [23:12] bubu: anything related to xorg [23:12] bubu: this is the channel! [23:12] bubu: i wouldnt copy those over === davlefou_ is now known as davlefou [23:12] ctcsadmin: did u install libcrypto++9? [23:13] hmm [23:13] padmick1: looking at a grub menu? [23:13] fman23, yes same error [23:13] ctcsadmin: hmm, were there any errors on install? [23:14] ctcsadmin: i would do the far simpler re-install [23:14] ya i can bring up terminal but all rest gibberish to me [23:14] ctcsadmin: or a better question would be, have u done any modification to ubuntu? [23:14] fman23, nope, no errors [23:14] jeff__: do 'sudo su' and then give your password, then you should be superuser, try copying the files again then, use 'exit' to leave superuser mode when you're done. Usually to execute something as superuser you just want to do the one thing though, so 'sudo cp -r folderlocation folderdestination' [23:14] have any try that ubuntu tv [23:14] interface [23:14] Is it sane to use a usb stick for / , /usr, and have /home, /tmp, /var, swap on a hdd? [23:14] fman23, no fresh install of 11.10 right from ubuntu [23:14] fman23, /lib/udev/rules.d/66-xorg-synaptics.rules ?? yay or nay?? [23:14] Rahail-m: i actually like it mostly, im considering installing gnome on my htpc just for it [23:15] padmick1: you got the broke 'wubibuilder' thing going, lets hope, cause that is an easy fix from the windows side [23:15] how do I get a pae kernel on a 64 bit install ? [23:15] bubu: that wouldnt matter [23:15] bubu: i dont think [23:15] ok how can i check [23:15] datruth_, you don't need one [23:15] datruth_: why would you want to? :x [23:15] fman23 cool... what kind system you used to install it [23:16] DaZ: just searching for any reason why my system does see all 12gb only 11.7 [23:16] I am trying to find small sbc so that way I dont have to hear ps sound or HD sound kind of noisy put tv next pc [23:16] or maybe its howing me th useable ram? === qwerty is now known as Guest3921 [23:16] I mean, would using a flash drive for / and /usr make sense? [23:16] in the system monitor? [23:16] hallo [23:16] padmick1: the check is 'you find yourself in a grub repair terminal instead of the one you are used to' [23:16] wassap people [23:16] Is there a package to walk me through signing a local package repository so that software center works with it? Or some kind of guide? [23:17] Rahail-m: actually, i used my dad's dead laptop, lol [23:17] <_Dom> Hi, my problem is straight forward. "there is no sound card". I'm using ubuntu in a virtual machine and it doesn't launch this music app i made in C++. Same in my Linux Mint virtual machine, however in my pinguy OS virtual machine, I haven o problems at all.. [23:17] Rahail-m: took out the hard drive and run it off of sd card [23:17] whats the difference? [23:17] datruth_: yeah, it typically shows a little less, not sure why mine says 7.8 GiB, but it's 8 of course. [23:17] datruth_: it's normal, i think :x [23:17] Rahail-m: a big plus is that my dad's laptop came with a remote [23:17] padmick1: i'll give you the link to the fix i used while i used wubi, lets hope its still up to date [23:18] k thanks [23:18] ctcsadmin: ok so u r still having the same error? [23:18] aha but what about the powersupplyu [23:18] fman23, yes [23:18] Rahail-m: well right now, it is just plugged into surge protector [23:18] padmick1: and if you are talking to me you add my nick to the conversation, its hard to pull you out of the hash [23:18] <_Dom> Hi, my problem is straight forward. "there is no sound card". I'm using ubuntu in a virtual machine and it doesn't launch this music app i made in C++. Same in my Linux Mint virtual machine, however in my pinguy OS virtual machine, I haven o problems at all.. [23:18] powersupply make noise to some one told me to use those sbc cant locate one yet [23:18] how can I lock the cdrom so it cannot be ejected using the button? (we are babysitting a 2 year old who likes to endlessly press these buttons and slam the tray closed) I tried 'sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/lock' as suggested on a forum, but got a Permission denied error [23:18] ctcsadmin: install libcrypto++-utils [23:18] hi, im having a trouble with intalling 11.10 both 32-bit and 64-bit on HP Pavilion p7-1010d destkop PC. it seems the machine doesn't recognized the gui. I have installed ubuntu finally using alternate-cd, however i'm locked up locked at the login screen. Any ideas what may have cause this? [23:19] <_Dom> Everyone's asking everyone here, i have no chance in getting an answer to my problem.. [23:19] Hello? I need partitioning help? [23:19] ok almoxarife [23:19] Rahail-m: sbc? [23:19] <_Dom> Hi, my problem is straight forward. "there is no sound card". I'm using ubuntu in a virtual machine and it doesn't launch this music app i made in C++. Same in my Linux Mint virtual machine, however in my pinguy OS virtual machine, I haven o problems at all.. [23:19] benuphoenix: i can help [23:19] root [23:20] fman23, you can install straight to an SD Card and boot off without any special setup? [23:20] fman23 like those wrap board some some board that do not need big powersupply [23:20] fman23: if I use both hdd and usb stick, what goes on the usb stick? [23:20] build in processor and memory (aka the current market settop box board something like that [23:21] x_coder: sure, just use the default install thing and select the sd card instead of a hard drive [23:21] padmick1: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Wubi_9.10 <-- see the wubi version? there may be a difference if the wubi you got is newer, but the issue is spelled out [23:21] benuphoenix: nothing unless u specifically tell it [23:21] it defaults to hard drive [23:21] I mean, what should I put on it? [23:21] <_Dom> Hi, my problem is straight forward. "there is no sound card". I'm using Ubuntu in a virtual machine and it doesn't launch this music app I made in C++. Same in my Linux Mint virtual machine, however in my Pinguy OS virtual machine, I haven no problems at all... [23:22] I am running 10.10 (32-bit) [23:22] how do I get around this? does it just mean my kernel is not supported? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/534881/ [23:22] benuphoenix: oh, do u want to use it as extra ram? although unless u have 64-bit, it would be kinda pointless [23:22] fman23, and I can install grub to the card without using /dev/sda mbr? [23:22] x_coder: yeah, if u install to sd card, it installs grub to boot to the sd card [23:22] oh wait [23:22] x_coder: sry, had to reread that, u would need to tell it to install grub to sd card [23:23] _Dom: just some idea..couldn't be something related to c++? [23:23] fman23, great, thanks. [23:23] x_coder: it is close to the end of setup but there is an option for it [23:23] ctcsadmin: did installing libcrypto++-utils help? [23:23] how do u get marlin to refresh a folder? [23:23] fman23: I want to use it to store system files that are accessed a lot so that the hdd makes less noise [23:24] I just inatalled 11.10 I thought I would have a gnome desktop how do I get rid of unity and get gnome ? [23:24] _Dom: use the same audio setup for ubuntu you are using for the one that works, no other ideas [23:24] <_Dom> jongbergs 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] <_Dom> almoxarife how do i do that exactly, i'm not familiar with linux ? [23:24] fman23: Like root partition [23:24] benuphoenix: 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 drive [23:24] and if the usb drive is removed, ur comp cant boot [23:25] datruth_: install gnome-shell, in the terminal sudo apt-get install gnome-shell [23:25] ! nounity | datruth_ [23:25] datruth_: 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 !classic [23:25] ! notunity | datruth_ [23:25] _Dom: no idea [23:26] thx' [23:28] ctcsadmin: did installing libcrypto++-utils help?
