[00:00] <ActionParsnip> mvdk: I use LXDE myself, my first DE was KDE
[00:00] <html> ActionParsnip,  i was locked out , but you got it to work without the 30mins of fuss
[00:01] <mvdk> ActionParsnip: I prefer oldstyle GNOME
[00:01] <mvdk> Does anyone have any idea what the procedure is for submitting a new package for the archives?
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> mvdk: could report a but with software centre I guess
[00:01] <map7> Does the Canopus Twinpact100 Tim is using work with Linux?
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> mvdk: xfce is very similar to Gnome2
[00:02] <litropy> Indicator-datetime-service is eating as much of my CPU as it can get. strace fragment: http://pastebin.com/jwPN4KJx
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> map7: could contact the manfacturers
[00:04] <html> mvdk,  if you have a mix of gmone lxdm and openbox its helps with low -medium end hardware, speeder
[00:04] <psusi> mvdk, you might want to start reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment, particularly the section on New Packages
[00:05] <mvdk> psusi, thanks.
[00:05] <theangler> is this a support channel
[00:05] <html> ActionParsnip,  xfce   i think thats in xubuntu  x server,, right?
[00:06] <ActionParsnip> html: its the default in xubuntu, but you can install as many DEs as you wish and use them...
[00:06] <html> de?    desktop enviroment?
[00:07] <html> has anyone made a remix of gnome?
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> yes, de == desktop environment
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> html: there is mate which is a gnome2 fork
[00:10] <html> has anyone made a remix of gnome? .. can it be done ?  like i want to make my own flavor thats really useful and fast  but atlease a splash of color and style
[00:10] <zorklat> html:  look into Linux Mint's Cinnamon.  I'm pretty sure there's an ubuntu ppa
[00:11]  * psusi really likes gnome-shell
[00:11] <zorklat> html:  alternately, they also have MATE, a fork of 2.32
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> html: any of the gnome2 forks aren't supported here, you can use them but we can't support it in here
[00:12] <zorklat> html:  alternately, they also have MATE, a fork of 2.32
[00:12]  * zorklat is using unity, and pretty much ok with it.
[00:12]  * psusi likes some of the ideas unity has, and some that gnome-shell has... wishes he could get both
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> html: https://launchpad.net/~merlwiz79/+archive/cinnamon-ppa
[00:13] <psusi> one thing I hate about unity is that you can't move the bloody bar to other parts of the screen... I really like the zoom out thing gnome-shell does when you tap the corner
[00:13] <ActionParsnip> psusi: you can actually
[00:13] <psusi> I wish they could agree on the widgets too
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> psusi: just because you don't know how doesn't mean its not possible...
[00:14] <psusi> ActionParsnip, yea, I think I saw there's a ppa with a modified version that can move
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> psusi: its a way to move it.
[00:14] <zorklat> oh, BUGGER!  Gparted can't even find sdb any more.
[00:14] <psusi> I'll give it another try in 12.04, but I *really* like that zoom out thing gnome-shell does
[00:15]  * ActionParsnip loves his LXDE :)
[00:15] <psusi> zorklat, can't find it, or doesn't see any partitions on it?
[00:15] <zorklat> psusi, can't find it.  acts like it's not even there.
[00:15] <wireless> I cant wait for 12.04.  Is the developement one worth trying? I HATE 11.10...find myself using 10.04 more and more.
[00:15] <psusi> zorklat, ohh, that's really not good
[00:16] <zorklat> psusi, that's why I wound up using cfdisk on gparted to fix it last time.
[00:16] <wireless> zorklat: is sdb an external or internal HD?
[00:16] <ActionParsnip> wireless: its quite similar, just later stuff. The gnome based Ubuntu uses Unity the same, just a later build that works smoother
[00:16] <pfifo> wireless, an bug submissions you make will make it that much better
[00:16] <wireless> I'm getting so many bugs with new kernel
[00:16] <wireless> its the kernel that Im having problems with
[00:17] <zorklat> wireless, internal.
[00:17] <wireless> I never thought of making a bug submission...I'll try that thanks
[00:17] <psusi> zorklat, (g)parted won't recofnize any partitions if anything is wonky with them, like one going past the end of the disk... but not seeing the disk at all?  that's not good
[00:17] <wireless> zorklat: thats really not good
[00:17] <wireless> zorlat: if it was external it could be a problem with the case
[00:17] <wireless> zorklat: its probably gone forever
[00:18] <psusi> zorklat, does fdisk -l see the drive?
[00:19] <wireless> zorklat I'd also goto /dev and see if sdb is listed
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> zorklat: does:   sudo fdisk -l     list the device?
[00:19] <zorklat> ActionParsnip, I've got a term running sudo -i, and fdisk -l has no output atall.
[00:20] <diverdude> is it not possible to export softlinks in /etc/exports ?
[00:20] <wireless> zorklat: in gparted there is a pulldown menu to select the other drives...many people dont see that and think their drive is not their when really they are selected on /dev/sda and dont realize it
[00:20] <ActionParsnip> zorklat: it should list all partitions, try running it as user with sudo
[00:20] <zorklat> wireless, I'm aware of the menu.  only sda is in there.
[00:20] <zorklat> ActionParsnip, ok.  only sees sda1.
[00:21] <psusi> zorklat, is this immediately after using gparted to move the partition?  have you rebooted?
[00:21] <vite> hi is there a way to create a user so that he can install certain things on a server but leave the rest of the server isolated from that user?
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> zorklat: ok then check through: dmesg | less     see what the system sees at boot...
[00:21] <pfifo> vite, you can install programs in your /home folder
[00:22] <oldIT781> mvdk: is there a way to get ubuntu 11.04 to create a xorg.conf file that I can then modify to my needs?
[00:22] <zorklat> psusi, yes to the first, no to the second.
[00:22] <psusi> zorklat, did the move give an error, or did it look ok and you shut down gparted?
[00:22] <psusi> zorklat, and yea, check dmesg
[00:23] <vite> pfifo: is there a way to create a separate configuration from a user without having to install a completely new server?
[00:23] <zorklat> psusi, got an error resizing.
[00:24] <pfifo> vite, can you rephrase that
[00:25] <zorklat> psusi, ActionParsnip , here's a fairly typical excerpt from 127k.
[00:25] <oldIT781> Anyone know if one can force ubuntu 11.04 to create a xorg.conf? It seems that the proprietary Ati drivers does not create one.
[00:25] <vite> pfifo: i have an ubuntu server setup with a root user. I want to use that same server, but create a new user so that they can install their own server setup without changing the other users setup
[00:25] <pfifo> !fakeroot | vite
[00:25] <zamiel> @vite sudo adduser
[00:26] <pfifo> !chroot | vite
[00:26] <zorklat> http://pastebin.com/r94tnviA
[00:26] <poulac58> sd
[00:26] <pfifo> !info fakeroot | vike this is what you want
[00:27] <psusi> zorklat, ruh-roh... looks like you got a dead disk... this is internal sata right?  or usb enclosure?
[00:27] <zorklat> psusi, internal sata.  and I don't have the funds to replace it just now.
[00:28] <zorklat> bizarrely enough, palimpsest thought it was just fine.
[00:28] <psusi> zorklat, did you check the SMART status?
[00:28] <vite> pfifo: and that will let them create their on setup without affecting the global system? using fakeroot
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> oldIT781: try:  sudo Xorg --configure
[00:29] <zorklat> psusi, yes I did.  ran every test palimpsest had.  I can do it again after booting partedmagic if you'd like to wait.
[00:29] <pfifo> !info qemu | vite
[00:30] <pfifo> vite, you could create a new server in qemu if you need even more privileges
[00:30] <oldIT781> ActionParsnip: "Fatal Server Error: Server is already active for display 0"
[00:30] <psusi> zorklat, looks like it upped and died completely... yea, try rebooting and see if it comes back, and run the extended smart selftest
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> oldIT781: run it in root recovery mode, or you may be able to use export to set the display to something else. I find root recovery mode easier
[00:33] <vite> virtual lol
[00:33] <oldIT781> ActionParsnip: ill give it a whirl.
[00:34] <diverdude> Ok...i have this setup: http://bin.cakephp.org/view/823691924 but for some reason nothing is mounted when i do mount -a. Am I missing something?
[00:35] <M0rriz> hi everyone i am on ubuntu 11.10, since today i am staying on university campus, i am trying to get apps in my shell to connect to internet, but it doesnt work, i googled, found some answers but none work
[00:35] <M0rriz> anyone has an idea how i could get it to work ?
[00:37] <suzanne> hi
[00:37] <bbonora-vaio> anybody using ushare?
[00:38] <bbonora-vaio> I'm wondering if I can have both xbox and DLNA turned on at the same time in the conf file
[00:38] <bbonora-vaio> I have an xbox but my receiver has a dlna server. I'd like to utilize both
[00:40] <suzanne> html here ....   ActionParsnip
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> suzanne: sup
[00:40] <x350> hey
[00:41]  * x350 is looking for some support =/
[00:42] <suzanne> ActionParsnip,  so im in the new account , YEAAHH! ... now any ideas of what to do for a woman that uses a pc for the web
[00:42] <x350> Anyone around to talk about some connection support?
[00:43] <suzanne> bbonora-vaio,   xbox?  360? or orginal?
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> suzanne: not sure how its different for a man.
[00:43] <psusi> x350, don't ask to ask, just ask the real question
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> suzanne: make sure the plugins work and such
[00:43] <suzanne> plugins?
[00:44] <x350> I downloaded and installed Ubuntu, so I could dual-boot windows 7 and ubunutu 11.0. But when I boot onto windows7 I can't connect to my router anymore. Although, when I boot onto ubuntu (like now) I can connect.
[00:44] <x350> Just wondering if anyone else had the same problems
[00:45] <x350> The routers fine, and it works at my work as well. My Ipod can connect to them, just not windows 7, after I installed ubuntu.
[00:45] <suzanne> bbonora-vaio,   ?
[00:46]  * x350 must be the only one.
[00:47] <x350> Anyone else having problems with connections on win7 after dual-booting ubuntu?
[00:47] <suzanne> x350,   check your internal ip (local)
[00:48] <x350> suzanne: 192.168.1.68
[00:48] <suzanne> x350,  yes  but it was a while ago
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> suzanne: like flash, java etc
[00:48] <suzanne> ActionParsnip, ok
[00:49] <suzanne> 192.168.1.68   ubuntu?
[00:49] <x350> just did ifconfig
[00:49] <x350> the lo - 127.0.0.1
[00:50] <x350> wlan0 - 192.168.1.68
[00:50] <suzanne> this is win7?
[00:50] <x350> na I can't connect to the internet on my win7
[00:50] <x350> im dual-booting ubuntu atm
[00:50] <x350> and I can connect here
[00:51] <x350> It was connecting fine 2 days ago
[00:51] <suzanne> !enter
[00:51] <x350> just windows 7 decided it couldn't connect to my router
[00:51] <Newunity> #ubuntu-br
[00:52] <suzanne> x350,  pm?
[00:52] <psusi> x350, sounds like a windows problem ;)
[00:52] <x350> yeah
[00:53] <x350> just wondering if others have had this problem after dual-booting installation
[00:53] <x350> and if there was a cure
[00:53] <x350> suzanne, just sent one
[00:53] <psusi> x350, I have a cure... stop using windows ;)
[00:53] <x350> lol
[00:53] <x350> I'd like to multi-task ;)
[00:53] <suzanne> but it could be that the router is confused, and connectsion need to be redone and sreset
[00:54] <x350> maybe. But I tried mine at home, and the one at work too
[00:54] <x350> both are not connecting
[00:55] <psusi> x350, try a cold boot?
[00:55] <x350> did, and even tried windows restore
[00:56] <x350> nothing :/
[00:56] <psusi> x350, you actually pulled the power, waited 30 seconds, then booted windows?
[00:56] <x350> not right now
[00:56] <x350> I litterly spent hours yesterday
[00:56] <x350> doing it
[00:57] <x350> tried lots of different methods, but nothing helped
[00:57] <x350> It's like, installing ubuntu, taking over the connections, then windows can't connect :/
[00:57] <psusi> x350, I'd say unplug the power of the pc and the router... then boot up the router, boot up the pc straight into windows, and if that still doesn't work, then give ms the finger ;)
[01:00] <geek_Man> Hey all, is anyone else getting signature errors when running apt-get update?
[01:00] <Fizzik> no

[01:04] <geek_Man> I dont manually edit sources.list

[01:08] <geek_Man> Okay, crazy question, might information involving repo sigs be stored in /home at all?

[01:32] <ratcheer> goddard: Not sure. I used to have one, but it broke months ago and the guy said it would never be fixed. There may be another one somewhere, though.
[01:33] <ratcheer> goddard: What browser do you use? I would look for a browser-specific extension.
[01:34] <goddard> ratcheer: firefox has none i can find which is odd
[01:34] <goddard> FirePGP looked like a good one but it hasn't been updated
[01:34] <ratcheer> goddard: I think that is the one I used to use, heh heh.

[02:37] <reagle> I have libavcodec-extra-52 installed, do I need something else?
[02:38] <tyler_> tyler_ is angry: ANGRY
[02:38] <bazhang> reagle, what does apt-cache search libfaac show
[02:38] <Wargasm> I'm using ubuntu 11.10 and I'm trying to use skype.  Skype uses pulse volume control, pulse is not able to see my microphone but I can record using another program.  Anyone know how to fix it so that microphone works?
[02:38] <tresk> Solved!! The process seems to be finished ... I hope this will not happen again. 1.5h :(
[02:39] <reagle> bzhang: both libfaac0 and libfaac-dev are installed
[02:39] <tyler_> @tyler_ is angry : Angry\
[02:39] <reagle> (1.26 natty)
[02:40] <reagle> bazhang: both libfaac0 and libfaac-dev are installed (sorry, typo in name last time)
[02:40] <JoseeAntonioR> hey, I'm trying to mount a file and I get this error: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[02:40] <JoseeAntonioR>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[02:40] <JoseeAntonioR>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try

[02:40] <tresk> anyway thanks ... finally I can leave (so hungry) :)
[02:41] <Fuxalt> Looking to install ubuntu on an old 667mhz 256mb ram machine. Just want some opinions on the best desktop. I'm not a fan of xfce. The computer will be for a child if that helps the decision process.
[02:41] <bazhang> reagle, libavcodec52? are you not on the most recent ubuntu?
[02:41] <natto> need help: i have a tmux session open, and in it, i can sudo (part of admin group); in a vanilla terminal, i can't (not part of admin group). anybody know wtf is going on?
[02:41] <xangua> Fuxalt: you can try Lubuntu, for low resources
[02:42] <reagle> bazhang: natty
[02:42] <bazhang> Fuxalt, lubuntu , really the only thing that will work on that
[02:42] <urlin2u> So those of you using the unity DE in 11.10, do you have 4.24 or 4.28 as of now?
[02:42] <Fuxalt> Will look into it. Thanks. :)
[02:42] <bazhang> urlin2u, its 4.24
[02:44] <bazhang> reagle, I'm not much in the know about ffmpeg ( I generally use handbrake) but perhaps if you explained how ffmpeg is failing (eg what you are trying to do) someone will be able to help
[02:44] <urlin2u> bazhang, I thought so I has the proposed open and got the 4.28 it was unstable,I went back to 4.24 and lost the plugin in compiz, hehe and lost the lovely sidepanel and some of the upper panel.
[02:44] <urlin2u> had*
[02:45] <bazhang> urlin2u, can they be reinstalled? were they from seperate packages?
[02:45] <urlin2u> bazhang, I have been trying to figure that out I have a clone I thyink of before this so no big deal, just sort of researching what to do.
[02:46] <urlin2u> think*
[02:46] <reagle> hrmm... i noticed my ppa for medibuntu isn't working...
[02:46] <reagle> Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/medibuntu-maintainers/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found
[02:46] <urlin2u> bazhang, I did a force install of 4.24
[02:47] <xangua>                             PPA description      Some experimental multimedia packages. (Don't expect to find here non-free and unredistributable packages.)        reagle
[02:47] <almoxarife> reagle: running natty?
[02:47] <Wargasm> nobody huh...?
[02:48] <xangua> if you want to add medibuntu repository you have the instructions on it's web medibuntu.org http://medibuntu.org/repository.php
[02:48] <reagle> almoxarife: yes
[02:48] <xangua> reagle *
[02:50] <almoxarife> http://medibuntu.org/repository.php <-- did you follow it?
[02:51] <reagle> i installed medibuntu according to http://medibuntu.org/repository.php, still codec problems in ffmpeg
[02:51] <reagle> again, this was working since i installed natty, something must've changed though
[02:53] <urlin2u> bazhang, time to reload the clone, thanks for the info.
[02:53] <reagle> i never grokked difference between 52 and 53, and 52-extra and 53-extra. i have libavcodec-extra-52 installed, is that right?
[02:53] <reagle> I also have medibuntus non-free-codecs
[02:54] <almoxarife> reagle: problem? particular mp3? stream? webpage?
[02:54] <reagle> huh, it looks like ubuntu version 4:0.6.4-1ubuntu1 (updates) is being installed over medibuntu's 4:0.6.2-1ubuntu2+medibuntu1
[02:55] <reagle> almoxarife: all of suddent my ffmpeg stopped working, complaining Unknown encoder 'libfaac' (among other codecs)
[02:56] <reagle> could ubuntu have pushed out and update trumping my medibuntu package, and hence i lost my codecs in libavcodec-extra-52?
[02:56] <sam___> what ports should i forward for x forwarding through ssh?
[02:57] <almoxarife> reagle: look at dpkg.log , search for the issue codec related apps that may have changed in the last 3 days?
[02:59] <reagle> almoxarife: looks like something happened this morning... http://paste.pound-python.org/show/16237/
[03:00] <Dreadtower> Hello
[03:00] <reagle> a problem with 08:24:33 status half-configured libavcodec-extra-52 4:0.6.4-1ubuntu1
[03:00] <Dreadtower> small problem
[03:00] <Dreadtower> I'm trying to change to KDE
[03:00] <Dreadtower> I'm at this webpage: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/config-desktop/C/other-desktops.html
[03:01] <Dreadtower> I have installed kubuntu-desktop
[03:01] <Dreadtower> I now have a splash screen with Kubuntu on it
[03:01] <Blue1> Dreadtower: what version of ubuntu are you using?  hint:    cat /etc/issue
[03:01] <Dreadtower> But when my system starts it starts with Gnome
[03:01] <almoxarife> reagle: alrighty, so, take yourself back to 4.0????? if that is an option, or look at the installed, if it has two versions pick the other not installed
[03:02] <Dreadtower> 11.10
[03:02] <Dreadtower> The thing I don;t understand on the web page is the phrase: 'Press System->Quit'
[03:02] <Blue1> Dreadtower: I have the same issue in 10.10 -- there is some config file messed up somewhere - but I haven't tracked it down yet.
[03:02] <Dreadtower> I can't find any such thing
[03:02] <Dreadtower> Oh - OK
[03:03] <Blue1> Dreadtower: known issue, but I have seen no fixes for it
[03:03] <almoxarife> Dreadtower: take it to #kubuntu
[03:03] <Dreadtower> I'll try that almoxarife, thx
[03:03] <almoxarife> Dreadtower: not that these nice folk wouldnt help
[03:03] <xangua> Dreadtower: doesn't kde session appear as option on the login screen¿
[03:03] <Dreadtower> It doesn't, no :(
[03:04] <reagle> am i supposed to be going back to the medibuntu version?
[03:04] <Blue1> Dreadtower: trying something bbib
[03:04] <reagle> I now have: libavcodec52 (4:0.6.4-0ubuntu0.11.04.1). and it no longer complains about flaac, but now I get: Unknown encoder 'libx264'
[03:06] <Dreadtower> Ah! I've found some community info.
[03:06] <Dreadtower> It requires more than just kubuntu-desktop
[03:06] <reagle> so, I install libavcodec-extra-52 to get x264, and I lose faac again!
[03:09] <reagle> in synaptic, when i try to force the medibuntu version i had this morning, I get a E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[03:09] <Dreadtower> It seems it also needs kde-full
[03:09] <reagle> apt-get install -f doesn't show any problems...
[03:09] <reagle> gonna give up for now, maybe things will be sorted tomorrow
[03:11] <Dreadtower> Does anyone know where the button 'System->Quit' is, or if there is a key-binding for it?
[03:17] <lzq> hello
[03:19] <loconut> hello, I have an ubuntu 11.04 x86_64 system and every time i boot my boot disk switches between being /dev/sda and being /dev/sdf. This screws up my raid6 on the other disks. Can I add a udev rule to force it to always be sda or sdf?
[03:19] <Dreadtower> Hmm: it wants me to configure lirc
[03:19] <Dreadtower> What is lirc?
[03:20] <pksadiq> ub
[03:20] <pksadiq> sorry
[03:21] <pksadiq> !info lirc | Dreadtower
[03:21] <Dreadtower> Of course: sorry
[03:22] <chad___> Is there an easy tool to recover files (with their names)? I accidentally did a reinstall.
[03:22] <loconut> there's got to be a way to force disk order/assignment in grub or udev? this toggling is going to drive me up a wall
[03:22] <Iluvalar> kop : are you here ?
[03:22] <sec_> anyone help me build one power case (x64,...) ?
[03:22] <Dreadtower> No lirc in man or info :(
[03:23] <Dreadtower> It's installing it as we speak
[03:23] <Dreadtower> I have no dish, TV card etc.
[03:23] <Dreadtower> Do I just configure for UDP?
[03:23] <Dreadtower> What is lirc?
[03:24] <Iluvalar> So just to give the end of my story, might intest some people here : I freshly reinstalled 11.10 and reimported my home folder from backups
[03:24] <Ben64> Dreadtower: look up a few lines
[03:24] <Iluvalar> And still... whatever the program i was running, i was getting segfault over segfault. massive amount...
[03:25] <Dreadtower> OK: so I don't need it: I have no remote control handset :)
[03:25] <Iluvalar> So i tried to stop every service I had one after another (pulse audio, ndiswrappe, trying to avoid other programs...) alway does nasty segfault
[03:25] <ironfroggy__> i have tried to add hook scripts into /etc/pm/sleep.d/ to unmount network filesystems before my laptop sleeps, but they don't execute. am i missing something i need?
[03:26] <Iluvalar> But now I opened a freshly new account (no more home directory) and everything look perfect...
[03:27] <loconut> how about this, can someone tell me how to leave my raid6 data intact and update all the superblocks?
[03:28] <bradleyayers> How do I get dpkg to install two packages that require each other? http://dpaste.com/690059/
[03:28] <loconut> rewrite them with newer version instead of 0.90
[03:29] <Dreadtower> Thx folks
[03:29] <Dreadtower> Trying a restart now
[03:29] <nimbiotics> hello all. without starting an argument. Can some please recommend an open source visual query builder for mysql/linux? TIA!
[03:30] <Iluvalar> nobody listen to me lol :)
[03:30] <Ben64> bradleyayers: why are you installing like that instead of using a repository
[03:30] <Iluvalar> I'll test a bit more, and I'll right all my story on a forum somewhere :P
[03:30] <bradleyayers> Ben64: just playing around with installing packages from newer versions, it'll probably break things but im just experimenting
[03:31] <Ben64> bradleyayers: it definitely will break things, don't do it : /
[03:31] <bradleyayers> :(
[03:33] <loconut> if I stop my array and run create will it rewrite the superblocks?
[03:34] <loconut> so long as I put the disks in exactly the right order?
[03:34] <Wargasm> solved my pulseaudio problem for anyone who uses skypeou and the mic can't hear y

[03:48] <Daxter> im tyring to use 10.04 on a corei5 machine that previously used 9.10, but the mouse ans keyboard randomly freeze up. I tried a irqba;ance shut off thing but to no avail. help
[03:48] <prospektor> Looking for some help getting audio to work in 10.4, google has been less than fruitful.
[03:50] <prospektor> With all the tech sites down for SOPA it's proving especially difficult
[03:51] <Wargasm> thats actually kinda funny
[03:51] <rhin0> how much longer is it now before everything back up
[03:51] <Wargasm> wish I can help but I'm a newbie myself
[03:51] <Wargasm> supposedly just today
[03:52] <Wargasm> but I don't know if its eastern time, or central, or etc
[03:52] <prospektor> Yeah, audio was working fine out of the box on Linux Mint 12, but I decided to go back to 10.4 and it's not recognizing any sound card
[03:55] <ratcheer> Daxter: Do you have an external USB drive connected?
[03:56] <Daxter> ratcheer: no,only usb thing connected all the tim is a bt adapter
[03:57] <Wargasm> prospektor what kind of card you got?
[03:57] <ratcheer> Ok. My mouse and kbd freeze sometimes and, if I unplug the USB drive, they will free up.
[03:58] <prospektor> it's the onboard audio on an ASUS F1 A75-M Pro, Realtek ALC892

[04:01] <goddard> clicking detect displays doesn't do anything
[04:02] <Wargasm> something about no support for this chip
[04:02] <prospektor> Well, it was working fine in Mint 12
[04:02] <prospektor> So I know the chip will work, I just have to find the drivers for it
[04:03] <Wargasm> good luck
[04:05] <james_> added '/usr/bin/synclient TouchpadOff=1' to /etc/init.d/rc.local, when i rebooted the touchpad was still active
[04:06] <zro> is unity part of 11.10 and not 11.04 ?
[04:06] <rhin0> its in 11.04
[04:06] <rhin0> but you can still use the old gui (gnome)
[04:06] <rhin0> 11.10 is fully unity
[04:07] <zro> oh... it is? its just not default wm ?
[04:07] <rhin0> where you log into the system you can select unity or gnome on 11.04 -- 11.10 is just unity (no choice)
[04:07] <james_> rhin0: any explanation as to why adding that line to rc.local wouldn't turn off the touchpad
[04:07] <zro> ok, but if one were to /want/ unity (not me, ick) ... then using 11.10 is the way to go?
[04:07] <rodayo> Hi all, I want to create a partition on my hard-disk (somehting like 40 GB / 500GB) to install windows on. I've never used gparted before and I see that /dev/sda1 is my main partition. I can't do anything unless I unmount it. Is this safe to do(unmounting your main partition)?
[04:07] <rhin0> .... I have my synclient setup in ... I use hang on
[04:07] <ubluntu> rodayo: it's not really possible. you need to boot a live-cd
[04:08] <rhin0> system > preferences > startup applications
[04:08] <rodayo> ubluntu, I don't know that the windows installer offers anything to create a partition...as far as I know it doesn't
[04:09] <ubluntu> rodayo: you can make a live-usb/cd boot from it and do what you want with gparted
[04:09] <james_> rhin0: currently in unity
[04:09] <ubluntu> I mean an ubuntu live-cd
[04:09] <james_> how do i switch from unity to gnome
[04:09] <ubluntu> !gnomefallback
[04:09] <ubluntu> hrm.
[04:09] <rhin0> no idea where it is on unity
[04:10] <rodayo> ubluntu, are you saying to create a gparted live cd/usb?
[04:10] <rhin0> you select gnome on login up until 11.04
[04:10] <ubluntu> no. the ubuntu live-cd has gparted on it
[04:11] <rodayo> ubluntu, so use the ubuntu-livecd to create a partition. then abort the installation and put in the windows-usb?
[04:12] <ubluntu> there is no installation if you just boot a live-cd just use gparted then shut it down
[04:12] <ubluntu> use the option on the menu like " try ubuntu with out installing "
[04:12] <rodayo> ubluntu, oooo, I understand now
[04:13] <rodayo> ubluntu, thank you i will try that
[04:14] <rodayo> ubluntu, i have an old ubuntu 7.07 cd. Will that suffice?
[04:14] <rodayo> 7.04*
[04:14] <JBunny> is there a way for me to update Mozilla Firefox without installing all the other system updates?
[04:15] <trism> JBunny: sudo apt-get install firefox
[04:15] <Daxter> JBunny: just select the firfox updates in update manager
[04:15] <JBunny> Daxter: I tried that and it still tried to install all of them.
[04:16] <Daxter> hmm that should work
[04:16] <james_> still not understanding, used the update-rc.d method and added to rc.local, but after reboot the touchpad is still active
[04:16] <ubluntu> rodayo: yea
[04:16] <ubluntu> rodayo: ubuntu 3.10 might have even haha
[04:17] <james_> !gnomefallback
[04:17] <JBunny> trying trism idea.
[04:17] <rodayo> ubluntu, great thanks for your help
[04:17] <trism> !nounity | james_
[04:18] <JBunny> while i'm here could someone help me with installing a dual boot of xp on top of my ubuntu machine?
[04:18] <Daxter> JBunny: easy enough..unless you already have ubuntu installed
[04:19] <JBunny> i do already have ubuntu installed
[04:19] <ubluntu> JBunny: I will help you if you would like
[04:19] <JBunny> ubluntu: I appreciate that
[04:20] <ubluntu> go ahead and install xp on to a seperate partition at the end of the disk. then boot ubuntu live-cd and in terminal you can reinstall grub to the MBR with 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda" if a is the disk you are using note it  is not /dev/sda1 but /dev/sda the root of the disk
[04:20] <ssshvb> Hello  at ubuntu 11 how can i put off   function of moving a window  Alt+LMB  ?
[04:21] <JBunny> ubluntu: is there a way for me to partition the drive? I only have one so im unsure how to partition it since I have to be using it to run the software to partition. lol
[04:22] <ubluntu> JBunny: boot an ubuntu cd and hit try ubuntu without installing then use gparted to resize a partition if need be and move space to the end of the disk and make an ntfs partition
[04:22] <trollingALLderps> hey guys
[04:23] <trollingALLderps> i have a question
[04:23] <JBunny> ubluntu: ok, i'll try it. luckily i keep a live cd next to the desktop.
[04:23] <ubluntu> JBunny: I think they have xchat so come back if you have problems
[04:23] <trollingALLderps> i have never used anything but windows
[04:23] <trollingALLderps> can i play games on ubuntu/linux
[04:24] <almoxarife> trollingALLderps: maybe
[04:24] <ubluntu> trollingALLderps: some of them with wine but not new ones usually
[04:24] <ubluntu> dualboot if you want to play games honestly.. thats what windows is good for.
[04:24] <JBunny> ubluntu: will do. thanks!
[04:24] <james_> tried installing gnome-shell
[04:24] <james_> apt-get install gnome-shell
[04:25] <ssshvb>  at ubuntu 11 how can i put off   function of moving a window  Alt+LMB  ? 	
[04:25] <syskk> any macbook air style pc that runs ubuntu smoothly?
[04:25] <aBound> Ubuntu 11.10 usually has gnome-shell from within the software center. Whereas with 10.04 LTS it might not be in the respostories.
[04:26] <almoxarife> ssshvb: can you ask the question in a different way? pls
[04:26] <ubluntu> I think he wants it to not move windows any more with alt+lb
[04:27] <ssshvb> when i try to use  alt key  + mouse Left button  my window is moving i do not  need it
[04:27] <almoxarife> ssshvb: dont hit the key combo?
[04:28] <almoxarife> ssshvb: or you want that combo for something else?
[04:28] <ssshvb> yep i do not need this key combo function
[04:29] <almoxarife> ssshvb: or you want that combo for something else?
[04:29] <ssshvb> i use maya  and in it   alt + lmb  move the scene
[04:29] <almoxarife> ssshvb: got it
[04:30] <almoxarife> ssshvb: what desktop and version?
[04:30] <ssshvb> gnome 3
[04:30] <zykotick9> ssshvb: alt+click to move windows is an Xorg thing - I'm shocked ANY gnu/linux program would use that key/mouse combo (it's dumb).

[04:42] <ImTheDude> is this spotnet
[04:42] <ImTheDude> ?
[04:43] <zykotick9> GeForce88: well after a quick google, you might want to try xnview (i'm not familiar with it)
[04:43] <GeForce88> ... i didn't get that when i tried. i'll try it now
[04:44] <GeForce88> doesn't show up in repos...
[04:44] <zykotick9> GeForce88: xnview doesn't seem to be in debian, so i doubt it's in ubuntu.  it might not be worth the effort?
[04:45] <GeForce88> i'll dl it and build it and let you know
[04:45] <chid> I have something blocking port 80 incoming, how can I figure out what it is?
[04:46] <almoxarife> GeForce88: them files are low quality (color) compressed files, seems like alot of work for ???
[04:46] <zykotick9> chid: do you use a router?  are you using a firewall on your box?  "lsof | grep 80" might show if it's a service running on 80 already.
[04:47] <zykotick9> chid: or you ISP might be blocking port 80 as well...
[04:47] <chid> zykotick9: no this is wlan
[04:48] <GeForce88> zykotick9,  this doesn't work either. could be the files are just corrupt.
[04:48] <ssshvb> any ideas about alt + click ?
[04:48] <chid> zykotick9: I can ping it, but I can't access the web server (which is definitely running)
[04:48] <zykotick9> GeForce88: thanks for letting me know.  well, i got nothing.  best of luck.
[04:49] <sedeki> I have a Win XP iso (need to flash my bios), how can I make a usb stick bootable? I tried "dd if=file.iso of=/dev/sdc" but it didn't boot although the file system is OK and everything seems to be in order
[04:49] <zykotick9> chid: what about locally on the machine?  "firefox localhost" sorta thing.
[04:49] <urlin2u> sedeki, win to flash in windows works with a legit MS ISO
[04:49] <chid> zykotick9: that works fine
[04:49] <chid> I'm certain it's a firewall issue
[04:50] <sedeki> i don't have windows...
[04:50] <almoxarife> chid: you control the firewall?
[04:50] <genesisbot> Hello
[04:50] <zykotick9> sedeki: reask in #windows (not sure it's possible with XP)
[04:50] <chid> almoxarife: of course :) but I don't know what firewalls are running
[04:50] <chid> I cleared out iptables disabled ufw
[04:50] <sedeki> zykotick9, i can download another iso
[04:51] <almoxarife> chid: the firewall on the router?
[04:51] <sedeki> i just need to flash my bios, don't care about any particular version of widnows
[04:51] <zykotick9> sedeki: perhaps you should start by asking in ##hardware?
[04:51] <urlin2u> sedeki, W7 will load to a thumb much easier.
[04:52] <almoxarife> sedeki: is it an intel cpu?
[04:52] <sedeki> do you think the dd command will work?
[04:52] <sedeki> yes
[04:52] <sedeki> intel atom
[04:52] <chid> almoxarife: actually no
[04:52] <chid> I don't have access to that
[04:52] <genesisbot> can any one help me im having sound problems with linux i have sound on youtube but if i play a song i dont get sound?
[04:53] <chid> ah well I suppose that could be the issue
[04:53] <chid> thanks
[04:53] <urlin2u> sedeki, the ##windows channel is where you should be asking as suggested, and no a dd wont work.
[04:53] <almoxarife> !info intel-microcode | sedeki
[04:53] <zykotick9> genesisbot: (i'm no help) but that's opposite of the normal issue, ususally people have sound - but NOT on youtube (flash).  Good luck.
[04:54] <sedeki> zykotick9, ?
[04:54] <genesisbot> zykotick9: do you know where i might get some help in that case i searched google and other fourms but cant find any thing
[04:54] <sedeki> almoxarife, what's this?
[04:55] <zykotick9> sedeki: i got nothing.  good luck.
[04:55] <zykotick9> genesisbot: assuming you're running ubuntu, you're asking in the right place ;)
[04:55] <genesisbot> zykotick9: yeah i am
[04:55] <almoxarife> sedeki: flashing  without flashing, done at the kernel, works for me, intel cpu
[04:56] <sedeki> almoxarife, ah, but what do I do with the .exe file?
[04:56] <almoxarife> sedeki: what exe?
[04:56] <sedeki> LG has only released a windows flasher
[04:56] <almoxarife> sedeki: are you on ubuntu os?
[04:56] <orlok> I thought that sort of thing got you arrested?
[04:57] <sedeki> almoxarife, yes
[04:57]  * oYeVoVeYo looks at DBoyz 
[04:57] <genesisbot> can any one help me im having sound problems and im very new to ubuntu please?
[04:58] <almoxarife> sedeki: then install 'intel-microcode'
[04:59] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: can you describe the ruckus? lol I mean what sound issue are you having?
[05:00] <shaneo> hey guys im getting some wierd errors when running rkhunter and was wondering what i can do to fix them http://paste.ubuntu.com/809343/
[05:01] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: i have sound on web pages such as youtube and hulu and others but i cant turn it up or down and then off line i have no sound at all
[05:01] <orlok> shaneo: Those are errors...
[05:01] <orlok> shaneo: Pretty sure they were already scripts.
[05:01] <shaneo> ok
[05:02] <shaneo> that was the weird part to me
[05:02] <shaneo> so no worries then
[05:02] <almoxarife> http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=639921 <--shane, not evil, or the link is evil
[05:02] <orlok> yeah, thats odd that it happened - was thios the first time you ran rkhunter?
[05:02] <shaneo> yes
[05:03] <orlok> Ok, i would guess - it is making the assumption that everything in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin etc is a binary file
[05:03] <shaneo> yeah
[05:03] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: how have you tested "off line" sound? are you using a laptop or pc?
[05:03] <orlok> and as it generates its initial file type list, it is noticing that those are shell scripts, not binaries
[05:03] <almoxarife> shaneo: if you want to really get scared, install 'wireshark' and look for incoming connections
[05:04] <orlok> i would say that the warning text could be written better
[05:04] <oYeVoVeYo> Hey umm, I'm just a beginner and I could really use some help :/ My laptop can't connect to the internet, plz help?
[05:04] <oYeVoVeYo> It can't detect the LAN connection
[05:04] <oYeVoVeYo> *
[05:04] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: yes i have downloaded a mp3 player and i try playing a song and it does not work and then i go to system sound to adjust the level and it freezes up on me
[05:06] <orlok> almoxarife: OH MY GOD THE CHINESE ARE AFTER ME!!!
[05:06] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: did you go all script kiddie on the network confs after you first noticed? or the issue is something out of the box
[05:06] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: try opening the terminal (or using ALT + F2) type "alsamixer" and check to see if all your sound levels are cranked and unmuted
[05:06] <almoxarife> orlok: fear buddy fear the unkown
[05:06] <orlok> almoxarife: heh
[05:07] <orlok> almoxarife: i have actually noticed SSH brite force attempts against a copmputer at home, called the user of the IP up, and had a Redhat employee on the phone the next morning (a saturday)
[05:07] <zykotick9> wiggmpk: i'd imagine your alt+f2 then alsamixer might fail
[05:07] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: sorry dont use ALT + F2, I am slightly retarded tonight
[05:08] <zykotick9> wiggmpk: alt+f2 then "xterm -e alsamixer" should work ;)
[05:08] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: alt+f2 worked and they are all the way up in the red both bars
[05:08] <wiggmpk> zykotick9: thanks lol, had a braid fart genesisbot note above
[05:09] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: none of them had MM on the bottom right?
[05:09] <oYeVoVeYo> almoxarife: I'm using ubuntu on a laptop, not a server. My internet works fine. Even the wire is fine.
[05:09] <almoxarife> orlok: you can control who accesses via ssh?
[05:10] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: yes two of them on the right say mm in a box but both bars are maxed
[05:10] <wiggmpk> oYeVoVeYo: you can connect to the internet via cable (as in NOT wireless)?
[05:10] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: please pastebin your /var/log/syslog if you would
[05:10] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: what are those 2 called?
[05:10] <zykotick9> genesisbot: mm is Mute, use "m" to unumte for testing
[05:11] <oYeVoVeYo> wiggmpk, the wire is fine when it's plugged into some other pc's or laptops
[05:11] <oYeVoVeYo> almoxarife, wait a sec
[05:11] <wiggmpk> oYeVoVeYo: cool, but you didnt answer my question, are you trying to establish a wireless or hardwire connection on your laptop?
[05:11] <oYeVoVeYo> hardwire, wiggmpk
[05:12] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: if you would like we can do it via terminal and the process is will provide you with a link to share?
[05:12] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: caller-id and off hook are mm || master and pcm are maxed with 87/87
[05:12] <oYeVoVeYo> wiggmpk: I have problem with wireless to but i want to fix my LAN connection first
[05:12] <shaneo> almoxarife i do use wireshark all the time
[05:12] <oYeVoVeYo> And my wireless too
[05:13] <almoxarife> shaneo: stop, time to use kismet, there is evil in them airwaves
[05:13] <oYeVoVeYo> almoxarife, kay I got /var/kig/syslog now, but it's really long? are you sure you want me to paste it O.o
[05:13] <wiggmpk> oYeVoVeYo: can you do this in terminal? lspci | grep Ethernet
[05:13] <shaneo> almoxarife ok will do
[05:13] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: yes
[05:13] <wiggmpk> genesisbot: can you do this in terminal lspci | grep Audio
[05:14] <almoxarife> wiggmpk: you are just one multi-tasking helper aint you
[05:14] <wiggmpk> almoxarife: attempting, havent fixed anything yet lol

[05:17] <almoxarife> wiggmpk: may i suggest you ask your prospective help clients to install 'pastebinit', afterwards ask them to do all those trouble-shoot actions ending with '|' pastebinit , they will have a link to share and you will have lots of possible corrective action items

[05:18] <genesisbot> wiggmpk: no i havnt ill try not tho brb
[05:18] <jmwpc> Can anyone recommend a GPU intensive application or screensaver I can use to test a cooling setup?

[05:20] <sedeki> i'm not sure how this is done normally
[05:20] <zykotick9> wookienz: to play/encode DVDs you need libdvdcss2 from medibuntu first - then a program to encode, Handbrake is good for mkv/mp4 (doesn't do avi)

[05:21] <oYeVoVeYo> wiggmpk, and I got "bash: /shiver: No such file or directory"

[05:39] <bullgard6> +e
[05:39] <GHOSTMEDIAPRO> it did, but now it doesnt
[05:40] <tawm_> was there something you did that removed it?
[05:40] <GHOSTMEDIAPRO> Rebooted, and then the issue
[05:41] <tawm_> hrm...
[05:41] <zykotick9> GHOSTMEDIAPRO: you might want to try reinstall util-linux - 1st try "dpkg -S /usr/bin/mcookie" and verify that is the package name.

[05:45] <MangoBoy> Hi. Hope you all well. I have a question.. I would like to launch my mobile broadband connection to Telefinland automaticaly when ever its pressent. It is set up so in networkmanager but it doesn't work. Maby because its "mobile broadband" and uses a usb modem?? Anyway Is there a fix or is there a comand i could use to launch it from promt or put in a script.
[05:45] <MangoBoy> It would be awesome if  you in such a case could tell me how to make the script run automatcaly when ever the dongel were pressent.  Can someone tell me how?
[05:46] <almoxarife> bullgard6: those are 'notifications'
[05:47] <maxmahem> hey is there a way to set all windows to maximise by default?
[05:48] <zykotick9> maxmahem: well, there is in awesomewm.  LOL.  I'm assuming you using gnome/unity?  maximus was a program that attempted to do that, not sure it still applies though.  good luck.
[05:49] <top500> trying to install ubuntu on Gateway Pentium 4 CPU3.06Ghz 1.00GB ram on new HD ...started good for 30.sec and then frozen for 20min nothing...any help
[05:49] <maxmahem> zykotick9, Yes gnome/unity
[05:50] <zykotick9> maxmahem: check out maximus
[05:51] <major> AGAIN: I need help please: I compressed some files in debian and installed ubuntu now... but I can't extract files from the .zip file. it says: unsupported compression method 99
[05:52] <zykotick9> major: is unzip installed (installable)?  from cli "unzip foo.zip" what happens?
[05:54] <major> zykotick9:  skipping: foo  unsupported compression method 99    <--like this
[05:54] <bullgard6> almoxarife: I already wrote that this are notifications. Why do you echo me and do not answer my question?
[05:54] <zykotick9> major: foo is a variable, replace it with your actual file name
[05:54] <major> zykotick9:  lol sure I know
[05:56] <rodayo_> Me again, I successfuly created a new partition where windows should go. Does anyone know how to create a bootable usb (like a live usb, not sure what the proper terminology is) from a windows iso? (the iso contains the installer, not a system image)
[05:56] <major> zykotick9:  "skipping: certs/untitled folder/TOR Bridges.txt  unsupported compression method 99"
[05:56] <zykotick9> major: your trying to unzip a txt file?  i can't help you.
[05:56] <urlin2u> top500, started good means what and from where?
[05:57] <SourT> so Ubuntu comes with these shells: sh, bash & dash - are there any others, too? i thought sh was really just bash, but it seems they are in fact different, so is sh that comes with Ubuntu the classic bourne shell?
[05:57] <major> zykotick9:  no this is 1 of many files
[05:57] <rodayo_> On a side note, I also have windows running on virtualbox. Is it possible to create a system image from this and copy that straight onto the new partition?
[05:57] <bullgard6> rodayo_: You could ask that in the channel #windows.
[05:57] <Corey> zsh, ksh, csh, tcsh, etc SourT.
[05:57] <rodayo_> bullgard6, I did, no one knew a sure fire method for it surprisingly
[05:57] <zykotick9> major: FYI you also might have issues with those spaces in the path.
[05:58] <major> zykotick9:  this archive was created in debian GNOME
[05:58] <vade> I'm probably using the wrong google search terms, thus me being here. Is it possible, within Unity, to enable a console/terminal only login options, disabling compiz/unity WM for a session?
[05:59] <zykotick9> major: ? i don't know.  I can't help.  good luck.
[05:59] <top500> urlin2u...started istall from disk 11.10 and ...just ubuntu  logo ..for 20min nothing any more
[05:59] <major> thanks anyways
[05:59] <wiggmpk> vade: yeah, use CTRL + ALT + F1 - F6 for just a terminal session
[05:59] <urlin2u> top500, is it a live cd and did you start the install from the desktop.
[05:59] <SourT> Corey, ya, but those don't ship as default like the others. btw, any idea how i can get Bash to output newlines? echo "hey \n\n" works with SH, but not with BASH which just outputs the \n instead of a newline
[06:00] <top500> live cd
[06:00] <vade> hrm, thats not working for me here wiggmpk :| (however, I am running panda board (arm, embedded), on linaro ubuntu 11.12 :D - just to make things more complicated)
[06:00] <top500> and brend new HD
[06:00] <vade> actually, its my keyboard, I am an asshole. that is working
[06:00] <vade> thanks wiggmpk
[06:01] <urlin2u> top500, bro are you getting that more details are needed, read the questions and answer them. :D
[06:02] <ohee> I have been researching WINE.. there a few things i cant find info on i hope someone here uses it
[06:02] <ohee> 1. does it work with any windows application? or does support have to be added to WINE for it to work
[06:02] <zykotick9> !appdb | ohee
[06:03] <wiggmpk> vade I am not particularly familiar with LInaro Ubuntu 11.12...
[06:03] <zykotick9> ohee: wine's aim (not always achieved) is to run unmodified windows programs (i'm not sure why anyone would want to do that, but it's popular)
[06:05] <almoxarife> bullgard6: i have reviewed my response and your question, my response is valid, you asked what it was, i told you, they are provided via 'libnotify-bin' , hence 'notifications'
[06:05] <top500> I install brand new HD and wanted to install ubuntu 11.10 from CD that I burned... booted from D drive and ubuntu logo was on...and was istalling for 2-3 min and just stoped ....nothing any more?????
[06:07] <ponrajuganesh> Greetings!!!
[06:07] <ponrajuganesh> How to find the current version of the tcl installed in the ubuntu
[06:07] <urlin2u> top500, yes did you ever get to the desktop?
[06:08] <top500> urlin2u...no did not
[06:08] <MangoBoy> hi. Hope you all are well. Automatic connect does'n't work on my mobile broadband connection.. What can i do?
[06:08] <zykotick9> ponrajuganesh: "apt-cache policy tcl" in a terminal might show you (assuming the package is tcl)
[06:09] <almoxarife> bullgard6: oh i also disregarded the apparent arrogant tone of your response as a translation issue
[06:09] <urlin2u> top500, that is important the new HD may not even have a partition table, boot to the desktop and open gparted a partitioner and look. Could also be a bad burn or bad ISO, have you done a md5sum on the ISO?
[06:10] <sn00p> xfce4 > unity
[06:11] <zykotick9> sn00p: <OT> maybe, but "mud > unity" ;)  </OT>
[06:11] <sn00p> lol god unity sucked
[06:12] <top500>  urlin2u...no i did not i am not that good on commputer...I also tryed on Windows wp pro on other HD ...did not work..??
[06:13] <urlin2u> top500, so your booting the ubuntu cd right?
[06:13] <top500> urlin2u....yes
[06:13] <urlin2u> top500, cool, so do you know if the HD has a partition?
[06:14] <top500> urlin2u...no partition it vas brand new
[06:16] <urlin2u> top500, okay, you always want to boot to the desktop, do that open, gparted and see if there is a partition table.
[06:16] <urlin2u> 14736251jOpBnaZvsN
[06:16] <top500> urlin2u....ok thank you ..I will try
[06:18] <lorenzoFB> hey guys
[06:18] <lorenzoFB> anybody is good with recovering libreoffice docs?
[06:18] <lorenzoFB> i'm desperate here
[06:19] <rigved> lorenzoFB: libreoffice has an in-built recovery mechanism.
[06:20] <lorenzoFB> I know, but it fails the recovery
[06:20] <lorenzoFB> when I turn it on
[06:20] <lorenzoFB> and there's no backup in the backup folder
[06:21] <almoxarife> lorenzoFB: is it a file you can share?
[06:21] <lorenzoFB> what do you mean by that?
[06:22] <almoxarife> lorenzoFB:  you put it somewhere where it can be downloaded, someone fixes it and tell you, or the file is private?
[06:22] <lorenzoFB> no, not really
[06:22] <lorenzoFB> there's nothing confidential
[06:22] <lorenzoFB> would you fix it for me?
[06:22] <lorenzoFB> can you actually do that?
[06:23] <almoxarife> lorenzoFB: so share it and ask for hand in repairing it, i am not the one to ask, i am just saying some like that kind of project
[06:23] <beyond> plz. do tell me the reason for this one code ....
[06:23] <beyond> int main()
[06:24] <lorenzoFB> where could I ask that?
[06:24] <beyond> {int *ptr=malloc(1);
[06:24] <beyond> *ptr=1000;
[06:24] <almoxarife> lorenzoFB: someone wants the challenge and the credit
[06:24] <beyond> printf("value of ptr is %d",*ptr);
[06:24] <lorenzoFB> is there anybody here who wants to help me recover this corrupted file?
[06:24] <tawm_> beyond: http://pastebin.com/
[06:25] <almoxarife> lorenzoFB: put it where it can be downloaded and ask the question
[06:26] <lorenzoFB> Here's the file guys, I'll pay a beer to anybody who recovers it: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4077601/franceschi%205%20Story%20Ideas.doc
[06:27] <wooter> lorenzoFB: bit hard when the file is 0 bytes
[06:27] <lorenzoFB> well that's the problem
[06:27] <lorenzoFB> that means there's nothing to do??
[06:27] <wooter> there is nothing there too recover
[06:28] <lorenzoFB> nice
[06:28] <lorenzoFB> so it got wiped
[06:28] <lorenzoFB> nothing I can do at all?
[06:28] <wooter> not with that file
[06:28] <lorenzoFB> fuck
[06:29] <wooter> accidently deleted ?
[06:29] <Tm_T> lorenzoFB: language, please
[06:29] <urlin2u> lorenzoFB, this is a worldwide family friendly channel please don't sware.
[06:29] <lorenzoFB> sorry guys
[06:29] <beyond> tawm_:: http://pastebin.com/9LkGYRB8
[06:30] <lorenzoFB> I'm on deadline and this is a huge problem for me
[06:30] <lorenzoFB> i'm sory about that
[06:31] <tawm_> beyond: i'm no expert but its a some type of C function to find the address and record for a DNS reverse lookup record
[06:31] <oYeVoVeYo> Um well, I'm back from lunch, and still need help with my laptop :/
[06:32] <beyond> Tawn_::nyways,,thnx for ur help
[06:32] <tawm_> PTR records are called reverse records because instead of asking DNS what is google.com you ask it what record is associated with 123.234.233.111
[06:33] <beyond> http://pastebin.com/9LkGYRB8   ::: can some one explain me the code
[06:33] <JBunny> i need to burn an xp iso to usb for a laptop without a cd drive. help?
[06:33] <zykotick9> JBunny: ##windows
[06:34] <tawm_> beyond: you may want to look for an irc channel more specific to DNS or programming C
[06:34] <JBunny> im trying to burn it on an ubuntu system, that's why i asked here. i need to know what programs on ubuntu will let me burn it.
[06:35] <almoxarife> JBunny: brasero
[06:36] <tawm_> JBunny: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html
[06:36] <beyond> tawn_ :: yeah, sure sir
[06:36] <almoxarife> !info brasero
[06:36] <kn0rki> dd?
[06:36] <zykotick9> almoxarife: brasero won't help creating a bootable USB
[06:36] <Eireocean> JBunny: I normally use "dd" to write iso's to usb but never done for a windows only linux distro's ?
[06:36] <almoxarife> !info startup-disk-creator
[06:37] <zykotick9> almoxarife: not gonna help with a winXP iso
[06:37] <almoxarife> zykotick9: the question was within ubuntu confines :)
[06:38] <zykotick9> almoxarife: < JBunny> i need to burn an xp iso to usb
[06:38] <goddard> haha here is a funny question for the channel anyone know how to fix a garage door opener?
[06:38] <juniour_> so is any thing like itunes in ubuntu wherei cna listen the radio
[06:39] <Eireocean> JBunny : Something like "dd if=xp.iso of=/dev/sda" just replacing with correct locations / paths.
[06:39] <zykotick9> Eireocean: that won't work
[06:39] <Eireocean> Ok
[06:40] <almoxarife> zykotick9: why wouldnt it? isnt dd a image maker?
[06:40] <juniour_> so is any thing like itunes in ubuntu wherei cna listen the radio
[06:40] <wooter> zykotick9: is right, there is ways to do it...but dd isnt one of them
[06:41] <goddard> juniour_: yes of course DOOOOD!!
[06:41] <tawm_> goddard: if you can give me ssh access i might be able to help :P
[06:41] <goddard> juniour_: Ubuntu even has a music store
[06:41] <goddard> tawm_: haha
[06:41] <almoxarife> wooter: and that would be because??
[06:42] <genesisbot> hello
[06:42] <wooter> almoxarife: because thumb drive isnt a cdrom
[06:42] <genesisbot> everyone
[06:42] <genesisbot> does any one know of a good mp3 play for unbuntu
[06:42] <almoxarife> sorry i keep forgetting he/she wants it on usb
[06:44] <JBunny> almoxarife: he lol
[06:44] <JBunny> wooter: what are these ways that do work then?
[06:45] <tawm_> 22:35 < tawm_> JBunny: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html
[06:45] <tawm_> 22:35 < tawm_> JBunny: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/04/4-ways-to-create-bootable-live-usb.html
[06:46] <tawm_> google seems to think UNetbootin will work
[06:46] <zykotick9> tawm_: too bad all 4 will probably fail with WinXP. JBunny
[06:47] <tawm_> hrm on closer inspection my foot is squarely in my mouth
[06:48] <JBunny> imagewriter seems to only want .img
[06:49] <JBunny> is there a way to convert my iso to img?
[06:49] <tawm_> Will startup disk creator make winxp bootable?
[06:49] <zykotick9> tawm_: nope
[06:49] <studioxps> Anyone familiar with Keebox usb network adapters?
[06:49] <tawm_> or are there super special steps needed for winxp vs vista/7
[06:49] <zykotick9> tawm_: s-d-c only works with Ubuntu ISOs
[06:49] <tawm_> kk
[06:49] <urlin2u> JBunny, you the one with the bios issue?
[06:50] <ponrajuganesh> Greetings!!!
[06:50] <tawm_> ponrajuganesh: oh hai!
[06:50] <ponrajuganesh> I am not able to install any app in my system
[06:51] <zykotick9> ponrajuganesh: from terminal can you run "sudo apt-get -f install"
[06:51] <ponrajuganesh> did the same
[06:52] <aBound> ponrajuganesh, Have you tried the software center or synaptic?
[06:52] <aBound> ponrajuganesh, By the way you can try: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean. To see if it fixes anything.
[06:52] <ponrajuganesh> ya I did it is showing some url and says the repository is not exsist
[06:53] <aBound> ponrajuganesh, Is this only for a particular package or all packages?
[06:53] <zykotick9> ponrajuganesh: "lsb_release -sc"
[06:53] <ponrajuganesh> it is the case for all the package :( aBound
[06:54] <ponrajuganesh> it says natty zykotick9
[06:54] <zykotick9> ponrajuganesh: ok, just verifying it wasn't an EOL release.  Good luck.
[06:55] <ponrajuganesh> hmmm could anyone help or solve
[06:55] <aBound> ponrajuganesh, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade. Afterwards probably check if there's a conflicting PPA in the software sources.
[06:55] <genesisbot> anyone know of any good mp3 players for linux?????????//
[06:55] <tawm_> genesisbot: vlc plays them just fine
[06:55] <zykotick9> genesisbot: there are LOTS of great music players in gnu/linux.  It depends on what YOU like.
[06:56] <tawm_> most people are left wanting for a better library system
[06:56] <ponrajuganesh> ya I am doing that but at some header it stands still at 99%
[06:56] <uncia> hello
[06:57] <genesisbot> is there any like itunes
[06:57] <uncia> no
[06:57] <genesisbot> like where i can have all my songs in a list
[06:57] <aBound> genesisbot, Songbird is a look alike to iTunes.
[06:57] <genesisbot> thank you
[06:57] <aBound> genesisbot, Ahh
[06:57] <zykotick9> aBound: songbird also dropped gnu/linux support, a while ago... i miss songbird a bit.
[06:57] <aBound> I think they stopped supporting Linux there's an open source version of Songbird.
[06:58] <aBound> genesisbot, http://getnightingale.com/
[06:59] <aBound> Nightingale is a completely free, open source audio player and web browser based on the Songbird media player source code.
[07:00] <aBound> zykotick9, Forgot about that too.
[07:02] <alkisg> Hi, is there any option for unity alt+tab switch to NOT group similar windows? It's a real pain to switch between 2 gedit windows with the keyboard...
[07:04] <alkisg> I press alt+tab once to have the windows list, then 10 times to cycle between my other windows, then wait 2 seconds in the gedit button so that the 2 windows previous are shown, and then try to read the thumbnail to decide which is the gedit window I'm in and which one is the other
[07:04] <alkisg> *previews
[07:07] <tawm_> alkisg: was it working how you wanted it in 11.04?
[07:07] <alkisg> tawm_: I'm only using LTS releases, so I went from 10.04 to 12.04
[07:07] <alkisg> I haven't worked with unity before
[07:07] <tawm_> kk
[07:08] <tawm_> yeah i think this is one of the things driving people nuts in unity
[07:08] <urlin2u> alkisg, that your only install of Ubuntu?
[07:08] <alkisg> urlin2u: no, I have many installations of ubuntu around, 10 or more
[07:08] <urlin2u> alkisg, cool  #ubuntu+1 is the channel for 12.04 .
[07:09] <zykotick9> alkisg: technically, if you are using 12.04 you should be asking in #ubuntu+1
[07:09] <darth_tux71> ROFL i have this installed on a live boot dvd I am GOOD!
[07:09] <alkisg> urlin2u, zykotick9, well I can fire up a VM with 11.04 and ask here, if it'll help... I don't think this behavior has changed since the first unity deployment...
[07:10] <alkisg> If there *isn't* any sane way to switch between windows with the same name with the keyboard, then I'll just file a wishlist bug, I was just asking to see if I'm missing something
[07:10] <darth_tux71> heh
[07:11] <tawm_> perhaps play with the "key to flip through windows" in the compizconfig settings manager
[07:11] <saju_m> /usr/lib/ and /usr/lib64/ whats the difference ???  how install package under this ???
[07:11] <alkisg> Thank you tawm_, I was looking for an out of the box method, me tries in ubuntu+1 as well...
[07:11] <zykotick9> saju_m: multiarch - /usr/lib is 32bit while /usr/lib64 is you gessed it 64bit
[07:11] <glebihan> alkisg, not using unity myself, so can't confirm it works but this should help http://askubuntu.com/questions/68151/revert-alt-tab-behavior-changed-in-11-10
[07:12] <saju_m> what is the use of both??
[07:12] <tawm_> alkisg: i think its probably just a gui front end to keep you out of dealing with a .conf file
[07:12] <zykotick9> saju_m: so 64bit systems can run both 32 and 64 bit code
[07:12] <saju_m> ok
[07:13] <tawm_> glebihan: there was a change in alt+tab between 11.04 and .10 but not the change he's talking about
[07:13] <chaitu> Greetings All. Am trying to backup some data into my external HD but unable to create any new folders. It does not give me any option to create or paste anything into it though I can see what it has. Can someone please help me out here?Thanks
[07:13] <goddard> anyone know if intel turbo boost works on ubuntu?
[07:13] <darth_tux71> yes last time i ran an actual install
[07:13] <ubluntu> chaitu: how do you have it mounted?
[07:14] <chaitu> I just plug it in and it pops up..I do nothing much
[07:14] <zykotick9> goddard: is that using USB keys as memory?  <that seems SO dumb to me, flash memory through USB is SO slow)
[07:14] <alkisg> glebihan, thanks, it's similar to what I'm looking for but it doesn't seem to have an option to "always expose windows in the switcher". tawm_ <<< I'll install it and check if it has an option for that, ty
[07:14] <ubluntu> chaitu: does your user own the folder its mounted into ? something in /media
[07:14] <chaitu> ubluntu: can you please tell me how to check? am kinda new
[07:15] <babarhaq> Hi all, My java firefox plugin stopped working. I thought they were going to leave the old installation alone? I m on 10.04
[07:15] <darth_tux71> isnt is like /media/sda1 or some shit
[07:15] <goddard> zykotick9: the intel turbo boost
[07:15] <ubluntu> chaitu: ls -l /folder/path
[07:15] <babarhaq> what would be the quickest way to install it again?
[07:15] <aromu> Is Canonical creating east asian(like chinese) fonts? anyone knows something?
[07:16] <goddard> aromu: is there a chinese channel?
[07:16] <zykotick9> !cn
[07:16] <goddard> aromu: they would know if there was
[07:16] <chaitu> ubottu: I just opened a file manager and I see it there... under home, root, and all other har drives
[07:17] <chaitu> ubluntu: I just opened a file manager and I see it there... under home, root, and all other har drives
[07:17] <ubluntu> chaitu: yea you don't have write acess to it im thinking...
[07:18] <chaitu> umnn can I just go to properties and see if I can get them? but this is a single login system...noone else uses this and It worked before
[07:18] <chaitu> not sure what happened all of a sudden
[07:18] <zykotick9> chaitu: is this a FAT or NTFS external drive?
[07:19] <chaitu> I believe its FAT
[07:19] <ubluntu> chaitu: type mount in a terminal to see how its mounted.. like the options
[07:19] <zykotick9> chaitu: ok, i can't help then.  FYI, FAT permissions are established with the mount command used.
[07:19] <whitefinger> hows everyone
[07:20] <chaitu> ok its vfat... just did mount in the terminal and it gave me that info
[07:20] <ubluntu> chaitu: well how is it mounted ?
[07:20] <t4unt> I have connected the monitor through an adapter to the graphics card. I have seated everything onto the mobo, but have NOT yet loaded the os (ubuntu via usb). Still, shouldn't I see SOMETHING on my monitor? It's completely black.
[07:21] <chaitu> /dev/sdc1 on /media/my book
[07:22] <phix> t4unt: you should, check your RAM and make sure you plugged in the extra power cable for the CPU (4 pin 12volt)
[07:22] <phix> t4unt: also make sure your monitor is on and set tothe correct source (if you have VGA, DVI and HDMI)
[07:23] <phix> t4unt: yes I know that sounds basic but you would be suprised how many people (even professionals) miss that
[07:23] <tawm_> t4unt: some graphics cards also need extra power
[07:23] <phix> t4unt: correct, some gfx cards needs more power
[07:24] <harsh343> how to copy the folder(for example :- dashboard) from dekstop to remote server ??
[07:25] <zykotick9> harsh343: scp? (which uses ssh for access, the remote server would have to be running ssh for that to work)
[07:26] <harsh343> zykotick9, yes ssh
[07:26] <harsh343> how to copy through command
[07:26] <tawm_> harsh343: works pretty much the same as cp but you specify user@server:/path/to/file
[07:27] <tawm_> so from your local computer scp -R /path/to/dashboard username@remoteserver:/path/to/destination
[07:28] <tawm_> it will prompt for your password at the remote server
[07:28] <tawm_> as if you were sshing to it
[07:28] <zykotick9> tawm_: i believe you need lowercase r (i could be wrong, but my "man scp" doesn't have a -R)
[07:29] <tawm_> zykotick9: i get all mixed up on which programs use -r vs -R for recursive
[07:29] <zykotick9> tawm_: same here ;)
[07:30] <tawm_> harsh343: zykotick9 proves he's better at linux than I again, its -r not -R
[07:32] <bencc> how can I clear the dns cache of ubuntu server?
[07:32] <babarhaq> hi i m the only one whose java applets stopped working in 10.04
[07:34] <zykotick9> babarhaq: you might be the only one running 10.04 in the channel ;)  ubuntu folk are typically excited about NEW vs stable.
[07:36] <babarhaq> zykotick9: me too but need stability above all so i normally stick to lts
[07:36] <tawm_> babarhaq: alkisg was mentioning he was on 10.04 till recently
[07:36] <babarhaq> alkisg: do u have the same problem
[07:36] <alkisg> babarhaq: let me read...
[07:37] <alkisg> ah, java applets? no idea, I don't use java much
[07:37] <alkisg> Do you have a link to test?
[07:37] <babarhaq> alkisg: http://java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp
[07:37] <Bullrot77> 1234
[07:37] <babarhaq> alkisg: in firefox
[07:38] <alkisg> babarhaq: ah sorry at this moment I'm with 12.04, and I don't even have java installed... (using 95% 10.04, and 5% 12.04... :))
[07:38] <kilmickey> so I have a support question, I'm trying to save my touchscreen config. But the instructions are for X11 . Where can I find the stuff for Unity?
[07:39] <babarhaq> alkisg: no probs ....
[07:39] <zykotick9> kilmickey: Xorg or X11?  X (typically Xorg in modern times) actually does the hardware access/settings for DE/WM (like Unity for example)
[07:39] <ParkerR> kilmickey, Unity is what runs over X11
[07:39] <zykotick9> ParkerR: well, Unity runs on Gnome, which runs on Xorg ;)
[07:40] <ParkerR> zykotick9, True XD
[07:42] <kilmickey> well the /ect/x11/xorg.conf.d/ doesn't exist should I make it. (sorry I am sort of new)
[07:43] <zykotick9> kilmickey: are you using /etc/X11 ?
[07:43] <zykotick9> kilmickey: case matters
[07:43] <zykotick9> kilmickey: as does spelling - ect vs etc ;)
[07:45] <kilmickey> Well since I'm poking around in the GUI spelling and CAPS don't matter too much.
[07:45] <zykotick9> kilmickey: true.  ya, i'm not sure that folder exists by default.  not sure what help it would be to you either?
[07:46] <zykotick9> kilmickey: you want to "save" your settings, meaning, you already configured it somehow?
[07:47] <celltech> Ubuntu 11.04. Is there any possible way to disable that 'hover' on audio files so it doesn't auto play?
[07:48] <zykotick9> celltech: you used to be able to uninstall mpg123 to stop that behaviour (not sure that would apply anymore though)
[07:48] <celltech> zykotick9: Yeah it's really obnoxious
[07:49] <kilmickey> I'm just trying to get my calibration to stick, and the steps given to me seem to not be available. And yes I'm using "Calibrate Touchscreen". It leaves me with a Terminal window explaining how to make it permanent.
[07:49] <zykotick9> celltech: is there some "preview" setting in nautilus for it by chance?  (i don't have nautilus installed, so cant check)
[07:49] <celltech> I don't think I do either.
[07:50] <tawm_> kilmickey: is it explaining that you need to save it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:50] <zykotick9> celltech: where are you getting the preview then?  KDE?
[07:50] <celltech> zykotick9:  Possibly
[07:51] <celltech> Ahh.. gstreamer feature
[07:51] <jiltdil> Is Dell Laptop coming with pre installed Ubuntu?
[07:52] <kilmickey> /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf to be exact
[07:53] <game16> Uh, is there any good ubuntu compatible FTP client? gFTP is just... not good
[07:53] <zykotick9> game16: filezilla? (i always liked gFTP though, for SSH anyways - FTP MUST DIE)
[07:54] <kop> http://pastebin.com/zjfjK8r2
[07:54] <kop> okay am I an idiot or is bluetooth broken in 10.04 ?
[07:54] <bencc> from my ubuntu server "dig +trace myserver.com" can resolve a specific dns but "ping myserver.com" can't
[07:54] <bencc> what can be the cause?
[07:55] <urlin2u> jiltdil, I would contact dell and ask.
[07:55] <tawm_> kilmickey: hrm well i know whenever I need to muck with my display settings I usually have to 1)make the conflicting file xorg.conf not exist anymore (usually i mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak) 2) tell the program to try and save the changes again and it usually works now that xorg.conf no longer exists
[07:55] <jiltdil> urlin2u,  hm :)
[07:55] <game16> I don't like filezilla either,
[07:55] <game16> I'm just used to like, winscp on windows
[07:56] <kilmickey> k, thank you.
[07:56] <game16> but dreamhost works with ssh, so  I guess I might as well learn todo that
[07:56] <Nowhere> rock n roll
[07:56] <tawm_> kilmickey: and to get X11 to properly reload you either need to logout or restart the machine
[07:56] <urlin2u> Nowhere, 3 chords and nowhere to go?

[08:18] <freemon> hello. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they have heard of anyone attempting to upgrade bt5 (which is based on a later version of ubuntu) to bt5 based on ubuntu 11
[08:18] <urlin2u> oYeVoVeYo, you have a broadcom card did you look at the wiki?
[08:19] <oYeVoVeYo> urlin2u, I did

[08:19] <oYeVoVeYo> My device isn't supported
[08:19] <urlin2u> oYeVoVeYo, cool make sure you name your card when asking for help. :D
[08:19] <zykotick9> !backtrack | freemon
[08:20] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: done dinning? actually your system sees wlan, remember? all them wifi spots you tried to connect to? and  ethernet? i am guessing you dont have a connection to anything alive on ehternet, well, i cant say, your syslog did though
[08:20] <oYeVoVeYo> :P sowwies.. it's umm "BCM57765 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe" <<<<< I dunno what those are but I guess that's the card right?
[08:20] <kop> ayecee, I just got tired of fighting bluetooth in 10.04 and dropped in for the expected period of ignore before I got a worthwhile direction to waste more time in
[08:21] <ayecee> kop: irc support is not without its hazards
[08:21] <oYeVoVeYo> almoxarife, lol, it was lunch :P I detects wireless networks, I just can't connect to anyone of 'em, frankly I don't even which one os 'em is my own network

[08:28] <oYeVoVeYo> And I installed ndiswrapper, but it doesn't even shows up, I have no idea where to fiind it.... and I gave up, so yay I'm here again, lol
[08:28] <Humbedooh> have you tried the good ol' "sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart" ?
[08:28] <ayecee> the error suggests that something related to bluez is not installed
[08:29] <kop> exactly .... what ?
[08:29] <Humbedooh> or just not running - try restarting the bluetooth service :>
[08:29] <Nikki_> Whenever I shutdown Ubuntu, it opens the CD drive. Can anyone help me? (Sorry for my bad english)
[08:29] <almoxarife> oYeVoVeYo: why wrapping a working wlan? i can show you your own syslog where it was working this afternoon my time, why not use what you were using then?
[08:29] <Jordan_U> Nikki_: Are you using an Ubuntu LiveCD / USB?
[08:30] <Nikki_> Yes.
[08:30] <Humbedooh> ....
[08:30] <Nikki_> I must quit. ON 3'o clock i'm coming.

[08:56] <luckymurali> zykotick9, actually I restarted the system and it is in recovery mode
[08:56] <zykotick9> luckymurali: reinstall is probably your best bet though (v 2.0)
[08:56] <luckymurali> there i checked it is available in root/.thrash folder
[08:56] <luckymurali> ok
[08:57] <PaulaA> bye bye to all now iḿ go to class :(

[08:57] <hhurtta> luckymurali: cp -r /root/.trash / as root does t not help you?
[08:57] <engla> _Ethan_: recover as in getting the same data back will not be possible. If it is critical, some individual files may be able to be saved
[08:57] <hhurtta> sorry
[08:57] <zykotick9> luckymurali: it would!

[09:24] <mani_> how to solve it ?
[09:24] <almoxarife> bullgard6: would that be 'user-name'? sounds official
[09:24] <animus> almoxarife:ofcourse the web browser is good to access.but you know i need separate software.hence i am asking.
[09:24] <marty> jatt, makes sense... but what i mean was... i have public keys in the gpg utility, and want to compare with the others.
[09:25] <marty> (see who the key belongs to)
[09:25] <DJones> !details | mani_ Can you let the channel know what your were installing and how you were installing, along with error message you were getting
[09:25] <DJones> mani_: Sorry, just saw the details on scrollback

[09:28] <zykotick9> !grub | ubuntu_
[09:29] <marty> jatt, i added a key. now i'm trying to find which is the key i added in seahorse :-)
[09:29] <zykotick9> aptdaemon seems like a terrible idea!
[09:31] <bullgard6> zykotick9: I beg your pardon?
[09:32] <zykotick9> bullgard6: allowing regular users to update system and install software.  this is "windows" administration come to gnu/linux.
[09:32] <zykotick9> bullgard6: this is re:mani_'s issue above
[09:33] <bullgard6> zykotick9: Ah,now I'm understanding your reservations.
[09:33] <marty> jatt, does it have anything to do with the key i added being Version: GnuPG v2.0.14
[09:35] <jatt> sorry not sure about that
[09:38] <kevin_> Hello, can anyone assist me?
[09:38] <kevin_> I'm having a problem with Ubuntu :(

[09:41] <kevin_> I keep getting this error, but I can't fix it no matter what I do. sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib32/libGL.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libasound.so.2 /usr/lib32/libasound.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libXxf86vm.so.1 /usr/lib32/libXxf86vm.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libX11.so.6 /usr/lib32/libX11.so sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib32/libpng.so

[09:41] <kevin_> . Sorry
[09:43] <geirha> kevin_: sudo ldconfig
[09:44] <jonathon_> Is there a command to delete all the empty folders in the current directory?
[09:45] <zykotick9> jonathon_: fslint is a GUI app that has that feature
[09:45] <jonathon_> zykotick9, Thanks much, Friend :)
[09:49] <emres> any one know good quick lounc panel or whatever this is called ?
[09:49] <kevin_> geirha, i put in sudo ldconfig and it didn't do anything
[09:50] <geirha> kevin_: It looks through all the ld.so.conf directories to look for new libs
[09:50] <kevin_> i did sudo ldconfig and it didn't do anything though
[09:50] <geirha> kevin_: See if  ldconfig -p  shows your lib now
[09:51] <geirha> kevin_: Wrong. It didn't output anything. That's very different from "didn't do anything".
[09:51] <kevin_> Okay.. Well I'm not really familiar with this stuff.
[09:52] <kevin_> What I'm trying to do is load a game called graal. kevin@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ graal

[09:53] <DarsVaeda> seems like this is some "java web starter" thing

[10:10] <the^user> http://paste.debian.net/152795/
[10:10] <crizzy> the question is, where you need xlibs, exactly?
[10:10] <the^user> Ben64,  i hope its oke
[10:10] <kevin_> The answer is, I have no idea. I'm just trying to install a game. A simple 2d crappy game.
[10:11] <Ben64> the^user: why is it so short
[10:11] <crizzy> i doubt xlibs is what you need for anything
[10:11] <the^user> diod i not copy everything
[10:11] <Ben64> why not

[10:18] <Ben64> the^user: well you have to hook it up to the computer first
[10:18] <crizzy> kevin_: and this is exactly why package managers and repositories were invented :) this not working is simply the game authors lazyness not to provide ubuntu package

[10:32] <stoic> I enabled the partner repository and updated the package manager but i still dont see partner under origins and apt links still cant find lucid-partner, tried reinstalling apt-get but still nothing, any idea why ? I should see it under package manager right ?
[10:32] <the^user> Ben64,  http://paste.debian.net/152799/
[10:32] <crizzy> kevin_: which ubuntu version you have btw?
[10:33] <Ben64> the^user: hit "p" at the (parted) prompt for it to print the partitions
[10:33] <kevin_> Xubuntu
[10:33] <crizzy> yes, but 11.10?
[10:33] <kevin_> Yes.
[10:33] <crizzy> hmm, ok
[10:33] <the^user> oke Ben64
[10:33] <crizzy> i think then this could fix it:
[10:34] <d3ngar> any ideas why I can't mount my memory stick? It says 'not allowed'
[10:34] <crizzy> sudo apt-get install libxxf86vm1:i386
[10:34] <stoic> d3ngar: doing it as root ?
[10:34] <crizzy> kevin_: problem seems to be, graal binary is 32bit, and you have only 64bit version of libxxf86vm1 installed
[10:34] <MonkeyDust> d3ngar  what's on the stick? how did you create it?
[10:34] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: Are you a member of the disk and/or usb groups? (You need to check /dev for the appropriate one)
[10:35] <kevin_> Okay, installed, now I should be able to run the game?
[10:35] <suzanne> !LXDE
[10:35] <crizzy> yes, try and see what happens :P
[10:35] <kevin_> Also yes, the programmers of the game are very lazy bastards. xD
[10:35] <d3ngar> stoic: no, not as root - just as a user through nautilus
[10:35] <crizzy> did you install it from the .deb package?
[10:35] <d3ngar> MonkeyDust: It's a fat32 formated mem-stick. I had no problems using it before. Used it on this machine many times
[10:35] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: plugdev is the group you want.
[10:35] <kevin_> No, it's a game I've played for years and years. More or less a chat client these days
[10:36] <crizzy> ok, well, does it work now?
[10:36] <d3ngar> BlueEagle: How coem I was removed from the group then?
[10:36] <kevin_> Nope, one second.
[10:36] <the^user> Ben64, http://paste.debian.net/152800/
[10:36] <d3ngar> How can you edit group memberships?
[10:36] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/bN52XqTy
[10:36] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: usermod -aG plugdev <USERNAME>
[10:36] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: do `groups` first to make sure you're not already a member.
[10:36] <suzanne> kevin_,  some dont get paid , and or not even enough to pay the rent
[10:36] <crizzy> ok, BadRequests almost without an exception are a driver problem
[10:37] <d3ngar> BlueEagle: Do I need to do anything thereafter?
[10:37] <crizzy> what gfx card you have and what drivers you have installed?
[10:37] <kevin_> These guys get paid more than enough though trust me :P
[10:37] <d3ngar> BlueEagle: I'm already in it
[10:37] <ix_> how can I unmount without root password?
[10:37] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: You may need to log out and log back in. Perhaps even restart GDM.
[10:37] <d3ngar> :S
[10:37] <BlueEagle> d3ngar: Well then "that's not it"(tm)
[10:37] <Ben64> the^user: no you do p after parted. like this. http://paste.debian.net/152801/
[10:37] <visual1ce> hi
[10:38] <suzanne> kevin_,  which ones ? windows ? linux? this game?
[10:38] <BlueEagle> ix_: To mount/unmount a partition w/o root privileges you need to set the 'user' option in fstab.
[10:38] <kevin_> The people that made the game I'm talking about
[10:38] <ikonia> kevin_: do you have an ubuntu issue ?
[10:38] <crizzy> kevin_: ping, gfx card and what drivers?
[10:38] <kevin_> But uh... It shouldn't be the driver, I run this game on Windows all the time and it works just fine
[10:38] <crizzy> it is
[10:38] <suzanne> !de
[10:38] <ix_> BlueEagle, do you have a link?
[10:38] <ikonia> kevin_: what happens on windows has no relevence to ubuntu,
[10:38] <suzanne> rrr!
[10:38] <crizzy> i bet your 3D acceleration is not working
[10:39] <visual1ce> im trying to get a boot cd going to flash my bios. i'm following the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318789 but when i try to move files over to the mount directory i get the error: no space left on device
[10:39] <ikonia> kevin_: do you have an ubuntu issue you need help with
[10:39] <kevin_> Yes, crizzy is helping me out
[10:39] <BlueEagle> ix_: If I have a link to what? fstab? It's in the /etc directory.
[10:39] <kevin_> Yeah I don't think i have the opengl dep :(
[10:39] <ix_> BlueEagle, I'm not that noobish
[10:39] <afsal> plz hlp me. my all wallpapers are missing now showing only black wallpaper in maverick
[10:39] <d3ngar> BlueEagle: I shall restart GDM, but I don't like it
[10:39] <crizzy> kevin_: this is purely a driver issue :) either 3D works or it doesn't
[10:39] <d3ngar> Bare with me
[10:39] <ix_> BlueEagle, but what about removable devices?
[10:39] <d3ngar> I will test this
[10:39] <crizzy> kevin_: now, what's your gfx card
[10:39] <kannan1112> hello
[10:39] <BlueEagle> ix_: Then what do you want a link for?
[10:40] <kevin_> Prepare to laugh. Mobile Intel 4 crapcrap lol
[10:40] <crizzy> ugh
[10:40] <crizzy> :p
[10:40] <Ben64> kevin_: try running "glxgears"
[10:40] <BlueEagle> ix_: By default members of plugdev should be able to mount removable devices iirc.
[10:40] <ix_> BlueEagle, I am a member of plugdev, but I can't remove
[10:40] <anonymous666> ubuntu or debian?
[10:41] <ix_> is there a difference?
[10:41] <ix_> :)
[10:41] <anonymous666> xD
[10:41] <crizzy> kevin_: pls pastebin output of "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[10:41] <BlueEagle> ix_: Are there more users on the system? (ie. did someone else mount it?)
[10:41] <stoic> I enabled lucid partner repositories but apt links don't work for it, says unknown channel and shouldnt i see it under origin in the package manager ?
[10:41] <crizzy> kevin_: if it says 'no' you don't have 3D acceleration
[10:41] <suzanne> yes there is , and greatly ix_  anonymous666
[10:41] <anonymous666> why ubuntu and not debian?
[10:41] <ix_> BlueEagle, halevt mounted it
[10:41] <the^user> http://paste.debian.net/152803/ Ben64  i hoipe i did it good now
[10:42] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/VU48EwRS
[10:42] <Ben64> the^user: looks like the drive is formatted strangely, not sure what you can do
[10:42] <crizzy> kevin_: yup, your drivers are definitely not working :)
[10:42] <BlueEagle> ix_: Well in 10.04 plugdev could send commands to hal to mount/unmount. I haven't used removable drives since.
[10:42] <crizzy> the game itself should work now, though, if your acceleration would work
[10:43] <the^user> ben its strange because 700mb of the drive is virtual wd smart udf
[10:43] <afsal> plz hlp me. my all wallpapers are missing now showing only black wallpaper in maverick
[10:43] <kevin_> How am I supposed to make the acceleration work? Like I said the game runs just fine on the same computer under windows
[10:43] <the^user> and that can see ubuntu
[10:43] <crizzy> i have no experience with intel cards though, i only know their drivers are worst of all drivers in existence, with amd/nvidia it would likely just work(tm)
[10:43] <kevin_> They have a Windows and Linux separate installer as well
[10:43] <crizzy> kevin_: this has nothing to do with windows
[10:43] <Ben64> the^user: yeah, thats a fake "CD" they have on there
[10:43] <ix_> BlueEagle, ok, thank you, you've helped more than others
[10:43] <BlueEagle> afsal: Where were the wallpapers located before? Is the directory now empty?
[10:43] <ix_> :)
[10:43] <crizzy> kevin_: the problem only, and only is, your linux intel drivers don't work right now
[10:44] <BlueEagle> ix_: That's just because I googled "ubuntu plugdev"
[10:44] <kevin_> So basically I'm screwed?
[10:44] <crizzy> kevin_: basically the same if you would uninstall your gfx drivers from windows and try to run the game with windows'es built-in VGA driver - it would not work
[10:44] <ix_> BlueEagle, if only it was that simple
[10:44] <afsal> BlueEagle: in /usr/share/background . But that not empty
[10:45] <crizzy> i have no experience with intel cards, it may or may not be possible to install newer/better drivers for it. can't help there :)
[10:45] <the^user> Ben64,  i have a nother question if i do formated itb to ntfs , dan it works only i think the turbo stream dont work any more then ?
[10:45] <ix_> BlueEagle, I google stuff before I ask
[10:45] <crizzy> with amd/nvidia, it would Just Work(tm)
[10:45] <suzanne> the^user,  is is swap or extended partation
[10:45] <kevin_> The same crappy game is more graphically demanding on Linux than Windows?
[10:45] <crizzy> probably not
[10:45] <crizzy> if you would just have working drivers, it would work more or less the same
[10:45] <kevin_> I don't understand then, because it's all on the same computer
[10:46] <stoic> I guess the question is is there something more i need to do after enabling lucid-partner repositories to get xubuntu to recognize it ?
[10:46] <suzanne> kevin_, what  game is it?
[10:46] <crizzy> graal
[10:46] <crizzy> and what is left, is purely a driver issue
[10:46] <crizzy> with some onboard intel car
[10:46] <afsal> BlueEagle: in /usr/share/background . But that not empty
[10:46] <crizzy> *card
[10:47] <user__> kevin_: the driver is a piece of software you need to install to let other programs use the hardware, you installed the driver software in windows but not in linux
[10:47] <the^user> suzanne, ubuntu dont know the partition extention what wd mypaspoort use, so i cant say if it is swap or extended
[10:47] <crizzy> well, i can't help more with this, sorry :) )(and i'm off to lunch, bb >>)
[10:48] <kevin_> thanks for all the help crizzy
[10:48] <afsal> BlueEagle: in /usr/share/background . But that not empty, the images cannot be open
[10:48] <kevin_> user_ i don't recall installing any drivers for the game :P
[10:49] <kevin_> how can i get the driver besides package manager?
[10:49] <user__> you dont install drivers for a game but for your hardware device, all games that needed hw accel would use the same driver
[10:49] <afsal> BlueEagle: I re-installed the ubuntu-wallpapers but same happening
[10:50] <kevin_> How am I supposed to get the drivers without the Package Manager though? Unless you know which one i need to look up in the manager..
[10:50] <user__> kevin_: whats the graphics card again+
[10:50] <visual1ce> im trying to get a boot cd going to flash my bios. i'm following the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318789 but when i try to move files over to the mount directory i get the error: no space left on device
[10:50] <kevin_> (laughing stock of the neighborhood) Mobile Intel 4 Chipset x.x
[10:51] <BlueEagle> afsal: Check the packages containing 'artwork' and see if you're missing any.
[10:51] <ikonia> kevin_: you won't need "drivers" for intel cards
[10:51] <ikonia> kevin_: they are part of xorg
[10:51] <BlueEagle> afsal: Sorry, I misread your post.
[10:51] <kevin_> What do I need then? :(
[10:52] <BlueEagle> afsal: If they are not readable you need to either make your user a member of the group (provided that the group has read access) or make the files group (or world) readable.
[10:53] <ikonia> kevin_: you need to configure xorg to be able to utilise the 3d capabilities of your card, if it's a supported card
[10:53] <BlueEagle> afsal: To do this first enter this in a terminal `ls -la /usr/share/background` to show the owner and group along with the permissions.
[10:53] <afsal> BlueEagle: and the software-center not opening...
[10:54] <BlueEagle> afsal: If the software center is not opening you can use command line tools.
[10:54] <BlueEagle> afsal: ...but it does sound like you have a somewhat broken system.
[10:54] <kevin_> I don't know anything about xorg lol and how to utilise it
[10:54] <afsal> BlueEagle: permission for 'root'
[10:55] <ikonia> kevin_: you'll probably need to create a custom xorg.conf file to force xorg to use the correct graphics driver in xorg and enable 3D support
[10:55] <user__> kevin_ could you pastebin the output of inxi -G
[10:55] <BlueEagle> afsal: so the files are owned by root:root and the pemissions are -rwx-r---- or somesuch?
[10:55] <ikonia> kevin_: that is assuming that card is supported in linux
[10:55] <suzanne> !xrog | kevin_
[10:56] <kevin_> well i'm not sure, because i installed linux on here. the computer came as a windows 7 comp
[10:56] <afsal> BlueEagle: -rw-r--r-- showing this
[10:56] <suzanne> !xorg | kevin_
[10:56] <ikonia> kevin_: the card should be, most intel ones are support
[10:56] <Ben64> if it came with win7, it should be a recent card
[10:57] <BlueEagle> afsal: That line shows permissions for owner, group and world prefixed by a directory flag so if the last group of three has r in it then the file is world readable.
[10:57] <BlueEagle> afsal: The next thing to check is if you have access to the directory.
[10:57] <BlueEagle> afsal: Did you do the ls -la as a user or as root?
[10:57] <BlueEagle> ....and he left.
[10:58] <kevin_> This is making no sense guys..
[10:58] <ikonia> kevin_: it's making perfect sense
[10:58] <ikonia> kevin_: within linux your video card does not auto configure to use it's 3d capabilities
[10:59] <ikonia> kevin_: that means you have to manually configure it, providing the card has 3d support options for linux
[10:59] <kevin_> :O
[10:59] <kevin_> i'm pretty sure it has the compatability, i just need to lear how to configure it
[10:59] <user__> kevin_: sudo cd /usr/local/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi
[10:59] <ikonia> kevin_: not all cards have support/compatability in Linux
[11:00] <user__> kevin_: the run inxi -G so we can knoz the exact type of graphics card
[11:00] <suzanne> BlueEagle,  you did good  better what i could of done...)
[11:00] <jatt> gnome 3 doesn't work with my radeon card (garbled fonts) is this a known issue?
[11:00] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/Fmu5caqM
[11:00] <ikonia> jatt: ati has numerous support issues
[11:01] <DarkStar1> hi. Is there a log for system uptime's as well as last resets, power downs, etc?
[11:01] <BlueEagle> suzanne: Thank you. :)
[11:02] <ikonia> DrShoggoth: the syslog will show reboots, as will the commands "uptime" and "last"
[11:02] <kevin_> darkstar1, uptime is one
[11:02] <ikonia> oops DarkStar1 ^
[11:03] <user__> kevin_: do the command between "&&" one after another in console, first cd /usr/local/bin   then sudo wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi and then   sudo chmod +x inxi
[11:03] <suzanne> Blue1,  welcome ... this is a community " all hangs in the balance Greatness through servitude , and wisedom through desire
[11:05] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/sL7X6jQC
[11:05] <DarkStar1> ikonia: kevin_  thx guys
[11:05] <user__> kevin_ now you have to pastebin the outptu of inxi -G
[11:06] <ikonia> no he doesn't
[11:06] <ikonia> it was a 302
[11:06] <Tixlegeek__> Hi!
[11:06] <ikonia> ah, it's a symlink
[11:06] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/4zKmHE6g
[11:07] <afsal> BlueEagle: sorry ..Network error
[11:07] <BlueEagle> afsal: That happens. Did you do the `ls -la` as root or normal user?
[11:07] <ashii> is there an application that can pickup colors in gnome?
[11:07] <ashii> like a color picker?
[11:08] <ashii> on diffrent applications and background?
[11:08] <afsal> BlueEagle: root
[11:08] <iceroot> ashii: gpick
[11:08] <user__> kevin_: you need to install missing packages the script needs, currently it is complaining about gawk not being installed so run: sudo apt-get install gawk
[11:08] <Tixlegeek__> Tell me, can someone tell me why the debian based distributions are responding to broadcasted ping, even if sysctl net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts is set to 1 by default
[11:08] <Tixlegeek__> ?
[11:09] <afsal> BlueEagle: as root..
[11:09] <Tixlegeek__> this value seems to be inverted
[11:09] <Tixlegeek__> and i don't know why
[11:10] <kevin_> okay gawk has been added
[11:10] <BlueEagle> afsal: Ok. Then you most likely no longer have access to the directory. In order try this and see which one does not end with an x in the privilege string `ls -la /|grep usr`, `ls -la /usr|grep share` and `ls -la /usr/share|grep background`
[11:11] <user__> kevin_: try to run inxi -G again
[11:11] <ljsoftnet> how do i change the fonts in ubuntu 11.10?
[11:11] <BlueEagle> afsal: when you find the one missing the ending x do `chmod a+x /path/to/directory` where /path/to/directory is the path to the offending directory.
[11:11] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/X7dEGRRL
[11:11] <MonkeyDust> ljsoftnet  right click on the desktop, properties, choose fonts
[11:12] <ljsoftnet> MonkeyDust its not there
[11:12] <afsal> BlueEagle: all the dirs are ending 'x'
[11:13] <afsal> BlueEagle: all the dirs are ending 'x' like this 'drwxr-xr-x'
[11:13] <Tixlegeek__> noone?
[11:14] <kevin_> user_  http://pastebin.com/X7dEGRRL
[11:15] <afsal> BlueEagle: all the dirs are ending 'x' like this 'drwxr-xr-x  root root  4096 2012-01-19 16:32'
[11:15] <BlueEagle> afsal: Hmm.. So if you try as a regular user: `ls -la /usr/share/background` you do get a list of files?
[11:16] <afsal> BlueEagle: yes..
[11:16] <BlueEagle> afsal: Then the user does have access to the files. However the files may be corrupt (ie. not containing valid image data)
[11:17] <BlueEagle> afsal: Please try to open the file in Gimp or similar image viewer.
[11:18] <kevin_> user_ you there?
[11:19] <JBunny> i need to burn an iso to usb
[11:20] <BlueEagle> JBunny: Technically USB-s are not burned. Do you need to boot and install ubuntu from that USB?
[11:21] <kevin_> Seems like i was getting pretty close to a solution, but it seems the guy that was helping me has left.
[11:21] <afsal> BlueEagle: my image viewers are not working... But it opening in firefox...
[11:22] <BlueEagle> afsal: Are you receiving any error messages when attempting to open the image viewers?
[11:22] <BlueEagle> afsal: Sounds like you really should boot from a livecd and fsck your linux partitions.
[11:22] <BlueEagle> !fsck
[11:23] <BlueEagle> afsal: Actually do the touch /forcefsck thingy and reboot.
[11:23] <BlueEagle> afsal: Not sure if you need to do that on all partitions though.
[11:24] <afsal> BlueEagle: ok.. i'm  going to do that
[11:24] <PlayerOne> my fullscreen size seems different under different users, anyone got a clue where to configure this?
[11:24] <shomon> Hi - I keep getting these squares appearing on my dual monitor setup, they appear as remnants of what was there before, and then go grey. Anyone had this?
[11:24] <shomon> I don't know if it's due to nvidia's support for sopa that's censoring my desktop..
[11:25] <DarkStar1> Hi. I have an issue with the locale of the system. I have a web app which gets the currency locale and even though the output of locale says LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8" somehow the software is still getting the currency in £s
[11:25] <DarkStar1> is there any place else where the locale of the system might be overriding this?
[11:26] <DarkStar1> sorry I meant are there any other system variables that might over ride this
[11:26] <DarkStar1> ?
[11:30] <user__> kevin_: pastebin the output of lshw -C display
[11:32] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/7g4ZEVbp
[11:32] <shomon> does anyone know how to fix ubuntu monitor problems? grey boxes appearing everywhere... Also when I bring up the menus on one monitor, it hides the foreground in the other one
[11:34] <user__> kevin_ you need to type "display" behind it
[11:34] <Jonny> hey everyone
[11:35] <DarsVaeda> how do I get rid of those new scrollbars?
[11:35] <Jonny> Just having a prob rendering anything with kdenlive, has ayone else faced this recently?
[11:35] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/8SkJ9xGt

[11:40] <MonkeyDu1t> 60 million ciao!-list italians more to go
[11:40] <DarsVaeda> shomon: yeah me too
[11:40] <conntrack> haha
[11:40] <kevin_> it's been run
[11:40] <DarsVaeda> problem is they do not work -.-
[11:41] <shomon> well I can never find them...
[11:41] <DarsVaeda> they do not work in some apps
[11:41] <DarsVaeda> just no functionallity
[11:41] <user__> kevin_: did it install some new packages? if it did restart your x session
[11:41] <DarsVaeda> I found other packages to remove to get rid of them
[11:42] <DarsVaeda> I try i out and tell you if it worked ;)
[11:42] <Jonny> its weird how both openshot and also kdenlive are not working :s
[11:42] <shomon> ah I didn't get that.. if I jiggled things around it'll find them, but if they don't work it's usually because there are other widgets in the way
[11:42] <shomon> yes please DarsVaeda :)
[11:42] <kevin_> i feel like a dipshit but what is an xsession?
[11:42] <Jonny> does ayone knoe what could be the issue?
[11:42] <Jonny> :s
[11:42] <ikonia> kevin_: tone down the langauge
[11:42] <shomon> lol
[11:43] <MonkeyDust> Jonny  find out what the common factor is and work on that
[11:43] <user__> kevin_: just reboot
[11:43] <shomon> xsession isn't a swear word. it's a session in X11 isn't it?
[11:44] <Jonny> MokeyDust, i am just running it through terminal at the momet
[11:44] <kevin_> when i reboot the game should run?
[11:44] <Jonny> i think somethig has happend sice an update
[11:45] <user__> kevin_: maybe
[11:45] <MonkeyDust> Jonny  openshot and kdenlive are no terminal commands, are they?
[11:45] <Jonny> i just started it through terminal to see when it crashes
[11:46] <Jonny> this is what i have in terms of an error : Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
[11:47] <DarsVaeda> shomon: sudo apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar liboverlay-scrollbar3-0.2-0 liboverlay-scrollbar-0.2-0
[11:47] <DarsVaeda> that worked for me
[11:47] <MangoBoy>  hi. Hope you all are well. Automatic connect does'n't work on my mobile broadband connection in network manager. What can i do?
[11:48] <shomon> thanks DarsVaeda !
[11:48] <MangoBoy> I have asked at #nm but no one answers there
[11:48] <DarsVaeda> np
[11:49] <kevin_> hmm
[11:49] <DarsVaeda> just a few years and I have configured unity back as it was ^^
[11:49] <agula> #kalisz
[11:50] <shomon> I must have a different version of those libraries DarsVaeda ... but I'll find the right version..
[11:50] <DarsVaeda> I'm on 11.10
[11:50] <MonkeyDust> DarsVaeda  you can download a PPA for MyUnity
[11:50] <shomon> ah, 11.04
[11:51] <Jonny> damn :s
[11:51] <Jonny> is there something wrong with the latest kdenlive repo?
[11:54] <Jonny> i think i have the development repo which could cause these errors
[11:55] <fosa_> where does phpmyadmin install to?
[11:55] <kevin_> I still can't get that stupid game to run >:(

[11:56] <user__> kevin_ can you output info of glxinfo
[11:57] <hiexpo> fosa_, it tells you in the termina l
[11:57] <fosa_> hiexpa: what tells me?

[12:01] <MonkeyDust> 'false'?
[12:01] <bullgard6> yes.
[12:01] <user__> kevin_ pastebin output of ldd /usr/bin/glxinfo

[12:02] <fosa_> hiexpo, i installed it a long time ago
[12:02] <kevin_> http://pastebin.com/BsNKXeeg
[12:03] <hiexpo> fosa_, than use find command
[12:04] <fosa_> hiexpo, i'm not familiar with that.. how would i do a search for phpymadmin ?
[12:04] <hiexpo> find phpymadmin
[12:05] <fosa_> hiexpo, no such file or directory..
[12:05] <LjL> hiexpo: that's not the way "find" works...
[12:05] <LjL> fosa_: have you installed it using APT?
[12:06] <fosa_> LjL, yes i believe so
[12:06] <LjL> fosa_: then "dpkg -L phpmyadmin | grep bin"
[12:06] <OerHeks> MonkeyDust, thnx, you are right
[12:06] <hiexpo> oops sorry your right LjL
[12:06] <MonkeyDust> OerHeks  ? what did i say?
[12:06] <hiexpo> sorry fosa_
[12:06] <fosa_> LjL, ahh okay thank you very much
[12:07] <LjL> fosa_: in general, "dpkg -L" will list all the contents of a package. you can also use "dpkg -S filename" to search for a given filename, it will tell you which package contains it.

[12:08] <Faralla> Hi. I just compiled a custom kernel for oneiric, but in grub it shows up in the "Previous Linux versions" submenu. I can I make grub move it to top level?
[12:09] <jnssts93> fracos
[12:09] <theadmin> Faralla: Probably move the menuentry to another file in /etc/grub.d/
[12:09] <fosa_> LjL, ahh okay thanks so much, i'll remember that :)
[12:10] <SpenserWilde> Hi all.
[12:10] <Faralla> theadmin: How?= From what i've seen, the entries in grub.d are quite complex
[12:10] <theadmin> Faralla: Just rip out the existing entry, create a new file (with proper naming syntax) and paste it there -- I'm no fan of grub2 so I can't tell it more precisely
[12:10] <theadmin> !grub2 | Faralla
[12:11] <nielz> does anyone know how to remove a mount option from a disk (set via the gui) in ubuntu 9.04?
[12:11] <nielz> I set a bad option, now the disk won't mount but I can't find where to unset the option
[12:11] <SpenserWilde> I have a problem with a Broadcom 4313 14e4:4727 wireless card. After blacklisting "bcma" and "brcmsmac", it catches the wireless signal by simply refuses to connect to it. Can someone help me please?
[12:11] <theadmin> nielz: Option?... I don't think we even set mouse options via the GUI at all
[12:11] <phibxr> nielz, you should be able to edit /etc/fstab
[12:12] <nielz> theadmin: mount option for a disk
[12:12] <theadmin> nielz: Anyway, unless it's the root drive, you should edit /etc/fstab manually
[12:12] <nielz> phibxr: /etc/fstab doesn't contain it
[12:12] <theadmin> nielz: err, s/mouse/mount/, sorry, idk what I was thinking about xD
[12:12] <LjL> nielz: (also, 9.04 is unsupported, you should upgrade)
[12:12] <theadmin> nielz: Add it to fstab then, what's the big deal with that
[12:13] <phibxr> nielz, if it's not in fstab, you haven't saved any mount options for it. what makes it seem like a mount option related issue? do you get an error message when you attempt to mount it manually?
[12:15] <nielz> phibxr: I set the mount option via the gui (right click on mounted disk on desktop, then properties), since then the disk won't mount and I'm getting a message "Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume."
[12:16] <Kartagis> !grub2
[12:16] <nielz> theadmin: the big deal is I got 25 of these devices and I need to configure some mount options which must preferably be set via the gui some I don't have to do it myself :)
[12:16] <xsl> Hi all, anyone has problems with D-Link PCI network cards ( r8169 driver ) with IRQ Interrupts?
[12:16] <oopepe> Hi, how do i save and restore my open windows upon logout/login in ubuntu 11.10?
[12:17] <fosa_> LjL, so if i do dpkg -S php.ini | grep bin it should spit out where the php.ini file is?
[12:17] <theadmin> nielz: GUI is evil.
[12:17] <nielz> phibxr: mounting manually will work fine, issue is with automounting
[12:17] <theadmin> nielz: I don't even know *how* to set mount options via the GUI
[12:18] <Jonny> Has anyone received this error with kdenlive "missing MLT's SDL Module not found"
[12:18] <nielz> theadmin: yet I need to do it via the gui, I know how to mount a drive manually or via fstab
[12:18] <Jonny> dant sort it
[12:18] <LjL> fosa_: no, no, "dpkg -S" gives you a package name. it tells you which *package* the file is in. "grep bin" only makes sense for "dpkg -L", because it filters out file entries that don't contain "bin", so you basically only get the executable files
[12:18] <Jonny> cant seem to sort it
[12:18] <nielz> theadmin: but I have no set the option and it must be stored *somewhere*
[12:18] <LjL> fosa_: if you want to know where php.ini is, do "dpkg -L php | grep php.ini"
[12:19] <bedlamb_> #java
[12:19] <theadmin> nielz: dconf probably.
[12:20] <Jonny> the MLT SDL error seems to be a common error though not able to find a fix
[12:20] <Jonny> can anyone shed any light on this?
[12:21] <Thodoris> i am searching for a C++ compiler for ubuntu
[12:21] <LjL> !info g++ | Thodoris
[12:21] <Thodoris> is there anyone that knows something ?
[12:22] <fosa_> LjL, ahh okay now i understand it.. though im curious, if a file is created in a packages folder after the installation process, can it still be found this way?
[12:22] <LjL> fosa_: no
[12:22] <LjL> fosa_: but config files usually come in the package
[12:22] <LjL> fosa_: php.ini definitely does
[12:25] <Priyanka> hi
[12:26] <Priyanka> hi gepatino
[12:26] <nielz> theadmin: I found it in .gconf/system/storage/volumes, dunno if that is dconf though, but I found it :)
[12:26] <theadmin> nielz: Yeah. But don't touch that manually. Use gconf-editor.
[12:26] <theadmin> nielz: Or else you might make GNOME unusable
[12:28] <llsam> hello
[12:29] <llsam> i would be very thankfull to get a support here, My problem is probably very complex: somehow i lost ermission to my system ..on login i  get following error:
[12:30] <nielz> theadmin: fixed :)
[12:30] <theadmin> nielz: GLaD to be of help
[12:30] <nielz> theadmin: thanks
[12:30] <Jonny> damn, kdnlive is really quite bad at the moment
[12:30] <theadmin> llsam: So, what error?
[12:30] <llsam> /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with error status 256
[12:31] <theadmin> Jonny: Have you tried Openshot, Pitivi or VLMC?
[12:31] <theadmin> llsam: That's not a big deal. Create a new user. Or remove gnome setting folders of the current one.
[12:31] <llsam> theadmin: i was chmoded already /etc/gconf/gconf.xnl.system but it dosnt solve
[12:31] <Jonny> been having a prob with Openshot at the moment as well
[12:32] <Jonny> I will give VLMC another go
[12:32] <llsam> theadmin: i am now in recovery mode . I ve got also this error pompt in the console:
[12:33] <chrionix> Guys, whenever I repair my grub boot loader, windows boot breaks. Anyone ever heard of this before?
[12:33] <MonkeyDust> !grub| chrionix
[12:34] <llsam> theadmin: mktemp: failed to creTE FILE VIA TEMPLATE /TMP/ELEKTRAENV.XXXXX...
[12:34] <chrionix> MonkeyDust: You didn't read my question. I'm the opposite, windows boot has broken after repairing grub, not vice versa.
[12:35] <theadmin> llsam: That's weird, haven't heard of that before. Oh well: sudo mount -o remount,rw / && sudo rm -r /home/your_username/.* && sync && sudo mount -o remount,ro / && sudo reboot -f
[12:35] <MonkeyDust> chrionix  maybe you find some useful hints on those pages
[12:35] <theadmin> llsam: That will remove all your user's configs, allowing them to be recreated.
[12:35] <chrionix> MonkeyDust: No, I won't. I've read those pages.
[12:36] <MonkeyDust> ok
[12:37] <llsam> theadmin: yes exactly..i couldnt fin any answares on the web for this error...so you suggest i to use those comands above? sorry im just simply user, not a geek
[12:38] <theadmin> llsam: I can see that, don't worry, yes, run those from the recovery mode's root shell
[12:38] <llsam> theadmin: okay, I will do that..thnk you  very much
[12:38] <theadmin> llsam: Make sure to type them EXACTLY as they are. Linux is case-sensetive, so "sudo" and "SuDo" and "SUDO" are not the same thing (and only the first will work), too. All the symbols are also important.
[12:39] <llsam> theadmin: okay, i will be careful
[12:40] <Tellmarch> hey, i've just installed ubuntu 10.04 on a new desktop computer with a nvidia GTX 560 graphics card. xorg uses the nouveau driver by default, can't go above 1024x768, which is quite awful on my 24" screen.
[12:40] <Tellmarch> how to install the nvidia drivers?
[12:41] <theadmin> Tellmarch: Check jockey. Also, sometimes Xorg can't auto-detect the video card, you might want a separate section in xorg.conf for that
[12:41] <phibxr> Tellmarch, just bring up the Dash and search for Additional Drivers.
[12:41] <phibxr> Tellmarch, oh, 10.04. no dash then.
[12:42] <phibxr> Tellmarch, find "Additional Drivers" under the System menu somewhere. :)
[12:42] <Tellmarch> the "Hardware drivers" menu options find nothing to use
[12:42] <Jonny> funy everytime i import a file in openshop it crashes :)
[12:42] <Tellmarch> (the list is empty)
[12:42] <Jonny> love it :)
[12:42] <phibxr> Tellmarch, then grab the drivers straight from NVIDIA: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[12:42] <theadmin> Tellmarch: Hm, then you're pretty ducked, probably search nvidia.com
[12:42] <Tellmarch> ok, thanks
[12:42] <llsam> theadmin: just one quastion: should i rite all this senrtence at one line in the console or is the / just a break betwenn each commands?
[12:42] <Tellmarch> that's what i would have done, wondered if there was a more "ubuntu" way
[12:43] <phibxr> Tellmarch, keep in mind if you're using a system with both an intel and an nvidia-card that your nvidia-card probably is inactive.
[12:43] <nigus>   ^ÂÊÎÔÛâêîôûĈĉĜĝĤĥĴĵŜŝŴŵŶŷˆ̭̂᷍ḒḓḘḙḼḽṊṋṰṱṶṷẐẑẤấẦầẨẩẪẫẬậẾếỀềỂểỄễỆệỐốỒồỔổỖỗỘộ⨣⨶⩯ꞈ＾󠁞
[12:43] <Tellmarch> oh.
[12:43] <Tellmarch> that might be the problem
[12:43] <theadmin> llsam: It's a single line, also, "&&" means a new command (though you can either hit Enter OR type "&&", it's the same stuff)
[12:43] <theadmin> !unicode | nigus
[12:43] <Tellmarch> it's a i7-2600, so there should be an intel HD2000 somewhere...
[12:43] <theadmin> Bah
[12:43] <Tellmarch> how to fix that?
[12:43] <phibxr> Tellmarch, usually you can toggle a 'Compatible'-switch in BIOS which will disable the Intel-card. that's what I have done on my UL30VT.
[12:43] <llsam> theadmin: ok. i understand. Do you have any idea why my problem apears?
[12:44] <theadmin> llsam: Because gnome configs are messed up
[12:44] <Jonny> complete bs, some of the best video editors on liux and they are broken :P
[12:44] <Ben64> Tellmarch: don't get the drivers from nvidia.com
[12:44] <suzanne> guest session , is there a way to have it on the logon manager?
[12:44] <llsam> theadmin: hmmm...whish i did it by self
[12:44] <Ben64> phibxr: don't direct people to nvidia.com to get drivers
[12:44] <llsam> ok i try now to recover the settings
[12:45] <Tellmarch> phibxr, on the other hand, it's nouveau driver that is used
[12:45] <Tellmarch> so it sees the nvidia card i guess
[12:45] <miko_mirane> hello
[12:45] <Tellmarch> (plus it works on the dual booted windows seven)
[12:45] <Tellmarch> Ben64, how to install them then?
[12:45] <miko_mirane> is this the right place where I can ask questions about ubuntu?
[12:46] <Ben64> Tellmarch: Hardware Drivers, or install from synaptic
[12:46] <theadmin> miko_mirane: Yeah.
[12:46] <Tellmarch> Ben64, it's not in hardware drivers. what package to use with synaptic?
[12:46] <miko_mirane> okay, well, im having troubles with dapper and the openthinclient developer package
[12:46] <Ben64> Tellmarch: search for nvidia, it will likely be nvidia-new
[12:47] <miko_mirane> btw
[12:47] <miko_mirane> nvidia is in the restricted hardware section
[12:47] <miko_mirane> from there you can dl a third-party driver
[12:47] <objectivityiskey> Hello
[12:48] <Tellmarch> lots of answer with apt-cache search... can it be "nvidia-current"?
[12:49] <miko_mirane> Tellmarch, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[12:49] <Tellmarch> 10.04
[12:49] <Tellmarch> (LTS)
[12:49] <Ben64> Tellmarch: that should work, but you sure its not in Hardware Drivers?
[12:49] <Tellmarch> yes, i checked
[12:49] <Tellmarch> it doesn't offer anything there
[12:50] <miko_mirane> that's odd
[12:50] <Ben64> Tellmarch: http://www.ben64.com/hardwaredrivers.png
[12:50] <Ben64> nothing like that?
[12:50] <miko_mirane> well, tried messing with the boot options?
[12:50] <miko_mirane> so that it can recognize nvidia?
[12:50] <Tellmarch> Ben64, the list is empty here
[12:50] <Ben64> Tellmarch: then go for nvidia-current
[12:51] <Tellmarch> it sees an nvidia card, since it uses nouveau
[12:51] <Tellmarch> installing nvidia-current now
[12:55] <Tellmarch> uh.
[12:55] <Tellmarch> installed nvidia-current, ran nvidia-xconfig, rebooted
[12:55] <Tellmarch> not working '^^
[12:55] <Tellmarch> X is panicking
[12:56] <Ben64> Tellmarch: why nvidia-xconfig
[12:56] <Jonny> does anyone know if you can add title clips with pitivi>
[12:56] <Jonny> ?
[12:57] <Ben64> Tellmarch: and what is the output of "lspci | grep -i vga"
[12:57] <Tellmarch> Ben64, nvidia-xconfig because without it just used the same driver as before, nouveau
[12:58] <Tellmarch> and nvidia-settings asked me to do so
[12:58] <Tellmarch> as for the lspci output... trying to recover from the broken X...
[13:00] <Tellmarch> ;.. it's badly broken
[13:00] <Tellmarch> but from memory, there was a line about a nvidia VGA compatible, without specifics

[13:02] <Ben64> Tellmarch: you don't need X to run lspci

[13:05] <Tellmarch> yeah
[13:05] <Tellmarch> just that one
[13:05] <Mick27> Hello folks, anyone seeing weird behavior with mdadm in the latest release ?
[13:06] <Ben64> Tellmarch: you should create an xorg.conf
[13:06] <Tellmarch> Ben64, that's what nvidia-xconfig is supposed to do automatically
[13:06] <llsam> theadmin: hello, some trouble of xecuting command: sudo rm -r /home/us../.* couldnt remove
[13:06] <Ben64> Tellmarch: pastebin it then
[13:06] <theadmin> llsam: Huh. Any more details?
[13:06] <Tellmarch> no problem in the .conf
[13:07] <Tellmarch> but XOrg failed with "Failed to load the NVIDIA kernle module"
[13:07] <Ben64> that sounds like a problem
[13:07] <Tellmarch> yeah
[13:07] <SpenserWilde> Hi all.
[13:07] <Tellmarch> guess nvidia-current didn't install enough things
[13:07] <Ben64> Tellmarch: try "modprobe nvidia"

[13:13] <llsam> theadmin: i would try it...could you give me proper commands?
[13:13] <Ben64> Tellmarch: add that ppa, and use nvidia drivers from there
[13:13] <theadmin> llsam: Just "adduser somebody"
[13:13] <llsam> ok

[13:16] <wado> hi everybodu, in ubuntu 11.10 is there any keyboard shortcuts "ctrl+whatever"  to move between workspaces ? if there are no, can I customize this??
[13:17] <mxj> I find this http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/itsc/network/vpn/linuxvpn.html too complicated
[13:18] <Tellmarch> meanwhile, i have another problem, my ssh connection to my new PC regularly freezes, impossible to do anything... any idea what could be the source of that problem?
[13:18] <llsam> theadmin:i made sudo adduser XXX but it is complaining about the name
[13:19] <theadmin> llsam: You can't use usernames which contain anything but lowercase latin letters and numbers. Also, a username must start with a letter.
[13:19] <llsam> theadmin: this what the output says but now i cant any otheruser more#
[13:20] <Pseudoephedrine> Hi, i installed Ubuntu11.10 onto a new laptop the other day, and i unable to change the brightness of the screen.. just wondering if this is a known bug and if there is anyway to fix it?
[13:20] <Pseudoephedrine> im being blinded lol
[13:20] <llsam> theadmin: it allows only 2 names or something
[13:20] <theadmin> llsam: Err. Try, for example, "sudo adduser exampleuser"
[13:22] <llsam> theadmin: shoud i reboot now? i was succesful
[13:22] <theadmin> llsam: Well, if you want to, then "sudo reboot". You can also just restart your display manager.
[13:23] <llsam> theadmin: restart display
[13:23] <llsam> theadmin: BUT WHAT AFTER THAT?
[13:24] <theadmin> llsam: Err... Select the new user on the login screen

[13:25] <mxj> wado: is http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/2289.html useful to you
[13:26] <auronandace> llsam: why didn't you back them up before removing?

[13:27] <JediMaster> hi guys, I'm trying to sort out networking on an Ubuntu VM running on Windows Hyper-V (yes, yuck, I know), having a bit of a headache. It was setup with legacy networking adaptor, but I was getting some really weird network issues, e.g. ping'ing bbc.co.uk would give 5000ms, 4000ms, 3000ms, 2000ms, 1000ms then 4ms (4ms is normal). So I've switched over to the normal network adaptor, and I've
[13:27] <JediMaster> got the hv-* modules in initrd and the network works fine, 4ms pings to bbc. However, the alias'ed network adaptors, eth0:0 and eth0:1 no longer work, any ideas?
[13:28] <auronandace> llsam: we all learn from our own mistakes :)
[13:28] <M0rriz> i really dont understand why i cant find any solution for updating ubuntu behind a firewall at university
[13:28] <M0rriz> is it that hard to fix this !?!?!?!?!?!
[13:28] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: if it makes you feel any better I'm on the exact same laptop right now and I don't have that error in mine
[13:28] <M0rriz> it almost forces me to ditch ubuntu and go back to windows
[13:28] <llsam> auronandace:puh...you couldnt imagine how im feeling now
[13:28] <theadmin> M0rriz: Huh, uh, what's the real problem with that? I think APT uses port 80 (or am I wrong?)
[13:28] <M0rriz> i cant do anything now
[13:29] <M0rriz> theadmin, i need to use a proxy setting i found a few solutions
[13:29] <M0rriz> but none work actually
[13:29] <M0rriz> searched the ubuntu forums
[13:29] <M0rriz> encountered many people with the same problem
[13:29] <M0rriz> but no solution
[13:29] <auronandace> llsam: at least now you won't likely repeat that mistake
[13:29] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: thanks for that... I really like the laptop & it runs oneiric really well... i'm just looking around to see what needs fixin' at this point
[13:30] <llsam> auronandace: never..but i feel realy lamed now..i am not a geek...normal user without much hackintg experience
[13:31] <M0rriz> theadmin, you see, this is what i get always, people ignoring me, thanks for that :)
[13:31] <theadmin> M0rriz: I ain't ignoring you, I just don't know the answer. Don't mean to offend.
[13:31] <xauth> M0rriz: Perhaps this helps. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/fedora-35/how-to-set-up-proxy-in-apt-gets-apt-conf-265793/
[13:31] <theadmin> M0rriz: That's how it usually is on IRC, don't know the answer -- stop talking.
[13:32] <llsam> auronandace: ist there any possibility to recover this data?
[13:32] <M0rriz> xauth, i found that, its not working\
[13:32] <auronandace> !undelete | llsam
[13:32] <theadmin> "virtually impossible"? Photorec recovers even from ext4, not to speak of ext3...
[13:32] <xauth> M0rriz: I'd say it should.
[13:33] <theadmin> Weird factoid
[13:33] <auronandace> llsam: in other words, it might be possible but not likely (or easy)
[13:33] <MonkeyDust> there's also scalpel
[13:33] <llsam> auronandace: i must try it
[13:33] <llsam> auronandace: better i dont reboot now
[13:34] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: sorry for the late reply have been trying to find a fix, none found yet. My brand of laptop in an Acer Aspire 3733Z.
[13:34] <guest000> Right after updated today, my screen went black. But I think it was not crashed. I could go to other ttys and rebooted. After that, every time after I logged in into my user or root, the screen goes black. But I can log in to Guest normally. Any suggestions?
[13:34] <llsam> ubottu: thanks
[13:34] <theadmin> llsam: Sorry about that, I just never thought anything *important* might be in hidden folders...
[13:34] <Pseudoephedrine> Another issue i am having is, everytime i try to use the command sudo, i get this error 'sudo: unable to resolve host pseudo.svndr.net'
[13:35] <llsam> theadmin: my all work..A  lot of data ..years of work
[13:35] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: no worries.. I'm assuming the hardware keys don't do anything? and the brightness setting somewhere in the settings dialog doesn't do anything either?
[13:35] <theadmin> Pseudoephedrine: Checkzit /etc/hosts
[13:35] <Tellmarch> so... seems like neither the network nor the graphics work when installing ubuntu 10.04 on my computer... wondering if i should try 11.10... but i don't want that unity "thing" :'(
[13:35] <theadmin> Tellmarch: Try Xubuntu. It looks a lot like Gnome2 and you'll feel right at home with it
[13:35] <sattu94> !nountiy | Tellmarch
[13:36] <sattu94> !nounity | Tellmarch
[13:36] <loganrun> is there a way to specify focus follow mouse?
[13:36] <auronandace> llsam: i alway keep my important stuff on another partition and back it up on an external harddrive
[13:36] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: Nope, the ALT+left/right keys will show the widget for brightness being changes, but do not change it, nor does the slider in 'screen'
[13:36] <llsam> theadmin: lot of my programs and tools create hiddn folders for collecting local data
[13:36] <Pseudoephedrine> theadmin: thank you :)
[13:36] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: nobody else seems to have any ideas, would you mind checking something for me please?
[13:36] <theadmin> llsam: Well yeah, configs
[13:36] <Myrtti> sure
[13:36] <llsam> auronandace: my /home/is on external partition
[13:37] <theadmin> llsam: They shouldn't be too important... imo... idk
[13:37] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: are you sure the model is Acer Aspire 3733Z. I get no hits at all on google for that
[13:37] <auronandace> llsam: i don't keep my important data on /home/
[13:37] <Chipzzz> can you tell me what "modprobe -l pcc_cpufreq" says?
[13:38] <llsam> auronandace: ...
[13:38] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: kernel/drivers/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.ko
[13:38] <llsam> jessus
[13:38] <auronandace> llsam: it is good practice to keep important data seperate from the OS
[13:38] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: sorry, 5733Z, new keyboard layout, trying to get used to it still ;p
[13:38] <llsam> auronandace: how i said...i had never problems like this
[13:39] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: pcc-cpufreq gives the same answer
[13:39] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: ah.. I get more hits now.. I'll be back in a minute
[13:39] <guest000> Right after I updated my Ubuntu 11.10 today, my screen went black. But I think it was not crashed. I could go to other ttys and rebooted. After that, every time after I logged in into my user or root, the screen goes black. But I can log in to Guest normally. Any suggestions?
[13:39] <kandinski> why doesn't ubuntu package truecrypt? does anybody know?
[13:39] <Myrtti> kandinski: truecrypt license forbids it
[13:39] <auronandace> llsam: now you see why it is good practice (not nice to learn the hard way though)
[13:39] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: i have looked on google i have tried multiple things, like changing the 'setpci' and none have seemed to work as of yet
[13:40] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: tried this one? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1620063
[13:40] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: ...and "cat /var/log/boot.log | grep pcc_cpufreq" doesn't return anything?
[13:40] <theadmin> Myrtti: That's odd, considering that, for instane, Gentoo or ArchLinux package it...
[13:40] <theadmin> Myrtti: for instance*
[13:41] <sattu94> Where exactly would one suggest to keep my data if not in /home/ ? If I don't want it on an external one. ?
[13:41] <kandinski> Myrtti: ah, thanks
[13:41] <kandinski> Myrtti: is there an alternative, or is truecrypt the recommended method for encrypting a USB disk?
[13:42] <theadmin> kandinski: I'd use TrueCrypt. Just grab it from their site, it's not hard to install at all.
[13:42] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: no, btw "grep pcc_cpufreq /var/log/boot.log/ would have returned the same result
[13:42] <llsam> auronandace: i look on the documantation but i dont see there any possibility to recover explicite folders...just all partitions. I m affraid to do that
[13:42] <kandinski> theadmin: thanks too
[13:42] <Myrtti> kandinski: truecrypt is the best if you want to get crossplatform support
[13:42] <auronandace> sattu94: i use a seperate storage partition
[13:42] <Slart> sattu94: I have a network mapped place for important stuff which I mount in /home/slart/mystuff, then I leave the rest of the stuff in /home/slart be where ever it wants.. I don't need to backup the settings for minesweeper =)
[13:42] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: I'm not seeing it in dmesg, just boot.log
[13:42] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: No, not yet. that was going to be my last method, im not fond of editing files i dont know what they do, if this file safe to edit? in your opinion?
[13:42] <llsam> auronandace: i came here for help
[13:43] <kandinski> Myrtti: it's for my backups and work files, so yeah, knowing that in a pinch I can get to it from a random Windows computer would be nice
[13:43] <sattu94>  /{var,opt,usr,etc,media,lib,dev,bin} are all out of question I guess.
[13:43] <llsam> auronandace: i thought it is a support channel
[13:43] <kandinski> thanks Myrtti theadmin
[13:43] <auronandace> llsam: i can only help you with what i know
[13:43] <llsam> auronandace: sómetimes is very hard to hear that the really big supporter making advice to the people as they should lknow everything..
[13:44] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/809638/
[13:44] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: well.. grub handles the loading of ubuntu at the very start.. it's a pretty important system.. but also quite easy to fix if you've got a live cd/live usb around.. and you can always undo that change that is mentionded when booting
[13:44] <auronandace> llsam: i've never had to restore my data, but i have given you advise on why it is important to have backups
[13:44] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: so I wouldn't be afraid of editing that file, no
[13:44] <llsam> auronandace: thank you
[13:45] <auronandace> llsam: sorry i can't help you recover the data, my experience in that area is very limited
[13:45] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: Ok, just edited the line, still no change, should i try a reboot or should it be working?
[13:45] <llsam> auronandace: okay, thank you anyway very much
[13:46] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: yes.. that change won't take effect until you reboot
[13:46] <ghostmediapro> is there another repo to get util-linux as the repo the company uses has been block
[13:46] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: Ok, i will be back ;p
[13:46] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: good luck =)
[13:47] <llsam> theadmin: could you help me in this problem now..im afraid to reboot the system to not make data completly lost
[13:48] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: darndest thing! I can't figure it out! Thanks for helping, I'll have to mess with this after I get some sleep... Thanks again :)
[13:48] <loganrun> it is much more efficient to use sloppy focus than click focus, I don't get why that is not the default
[13:48] <theadmin> llsam: Well it is completely lost, anyway, well... You can try data recovery tools. But... I can't guarantee anything... Sorry I made you lose important things :(
[13:48] <viashimo> I'm running ubuntu 11.10, and my /etc/resolv.conf keeps getting reverted (presumably by network manager) while the system is running. anybody have any ideas how to avoid that. this is a problem since it reverts it to using the wrong nameservers
[13:49] <Pici> ghostmediapro: You can use any other ubuntu repository mirror.
[13:49] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: check your BIOS settings, that might be a good idea
[13:49] <theadmin> loganrun: It's default in most tiling wms, but not in stacking ones.
[13:49] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: I'm no longer being blinded, thanks for the help
[13:49] <llsam> theadmin: it was my fault that i didt interprated your advices..i am really distroyed now
[13:49] <Slart> Pseudoephedrine: it worked? great!
[13:49] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: Thanks... I hadn't thought of that... good idea, but I'll still have to do it after some sleep ;)
[13:50] <theadmin> llsam: Not your fault, noobs shouldn't try to understand stuff they can't... blame me if you want to, just don't swear too much
[13:50] <Pseudoephedrine> Slart: It sure did! Thanks again
[13:50] <loganrun> theadmin, if you are trying to work with more than one window it is a pain because whenver you click it brings the other window to the top and hinds the window you currently were working on potentially, a serious pain
[13:50] <theadmin> loganrun: Try i3. Or awesome. or dwm. Or any other tiling wm :D Seems stacking is not for you
[13:51] <llsam> theadmin: so lets back to the new user i made..how should i go farward now?
[13:51] <theadmin> llsam: You should reboot and then select the new user at the login screen, after which, well, your system should be usable
[13:51] <loganrun> theadmin, how do you change window managers in ubuntu?
[13:52] <theadmin> loganrun: Install a new one and somehow make it start default (idk how to do it in desktop environments, I myself use standalone openbox)
[13:52] <llsam> theadmin: but can i come back to my old user after that?
[13:53] <theadmin> llsam: If you can get that user's account to work again, sure.
[13:53] <ghostmediapro> could i use a live cd to fix the /usr/bin/startx: line 138: /usr/bin/mcookie: no such file or directory
[13:54] <llsam> theadmin: i would like to contact again if i get trouble with that, is it ok?
[13:54] <loganrun> theadmin, was able to find how to change to sloppy focus which seems o.k. for now. is the dashboard part of the window manager I assume?
[13:54] <theadmin> llsam: Sure thing.
[13:54] <theadmin> loganrun: You mean the unity dash? Yeah, sadly
[13:54] <guest000> Right after I updated my Ubuntu 11.10 today, my screen went black. But I think it was not crashed. I could go to other ttys and rebooted. After that, every time after I logged in into my user or root, the screen goes black. But I can log in to Guest normally. Somebody help me ..
[13:54] <loganrun> theadmin, yes
[13:54] <malibu> Hi there.. I"m locked out of gnome do because it is having an issue with the google docs plugin this morning and dies.  How do I remove the google docs plugin from the shell?
[13:55] <loganrun> theadmin, yeah, you loose a lot of the features of the distribution if you use a non standard window manager
[13:55] <theadmin> loganrun: I use openbox and am fully satisfied with how it works :D So, meh.
[13:55] <theadmin> loganrun: Me doesn't likes Unity
[13:59] <llsam> theadmin: i have also problem to start gdm under new user
[13:59] <theadmin> llsam: Why are you starting gdm as a user?
[13:59] <llsam> theadmin: the same error msg ...sanity check
[13:59] <theadmin> llsam: Huh. Now this is really weird. Sorry, I don't even know anymore.
[13:59] <llsam> theadmin: i dont understand this quastion...how else?
[14:00] <auronandace> llsam: when you say start gdm are you referring to the login manager?
[14:00] <_UsUrPeR_> morning all. Where can I cat /dev to get my current CPU loads?
[14:00] <llsam> auronandace: yes i do
[14:00] <auronandace> llsam: the login manager should start on its own
[14:00] <theadmin> _UsUrPeR_: "uptime" provides load averages if that's what you mean, I have no idea why you want to cat /dev stuff for that
[14:01] <auronandace> llsam: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[14:01] <llsam> auronandace: it is starting but looks differrent and also gdm power manager complains
[14:01] <llsam> auronandace: 10.04 64bit
[14:01] <rypervenche> Does Linux need anything special to be able to read a GPT external HDD?
[14:01] <auronandace> llsam: there is no such thing as gdm power manager
[14:01] <_UsUrPeR_> theadmin: I am trying to put together a simple script to incrementally log server stats to a text file
[14:01] <auronandace> llsam: gdm is the gnome display manager
[14:01] <llsam> auronandace: some power manager or something
[14:02] <llsam> auronandace:gdm ist gnome display manager
[14:03] <auronandace> llsam: so gdm (the login screen) loads fine and you can enter your username and password?
[14:03] <llsam> auronandace: yes...but it looks crappy ..i can choose there users but no other options available as normal
[14:04] <auronandace> llsam: what happens when you login?
[14:05] <llsam> auronandace: it gives error...something with sanity-check of gconf
[14:05] <mydogsnameisrudy> wonders if llsam  has changed login theme?
[14:05] <llsam> auronandace: sorry i cant say now exactly#
[14:05] <OerHeks> llsam, you need to enter the user first, to make a change in GDM
[14:06] <auronandace> llsam: and that is with the newly created user?
[14:06] <llsam> auronandace: yes also with the new created user
[14:06] <auronandace> llsam: hmm, something is very broken
[14:07] <auronandace> llsam: when did you first have this problem
[14:07] <llsam> auronandace: yes. my disk?
[14:08] <llsam> auronandace: it apears yesterday during some installation of eclipse plugins...i lost suddenly permissions. i have reboot and saw sanity-check errors
[14:08] <llsam> auronandace: i discover also another problems with mktemp
[14:09] <auronandace> llsam: where did you get the eclipse plugins from? did you install eclipse from the repo?
[14:09] <llsam> auronandace: no, i have removed ecliupse from the repos and took brand fresh indigo version from the eclipse site
[14:10] <auronandace> llsam: ah, that means we can't support you with eclipse
[14:10] <llsam> auronandace: becouse i have problems with installing subcliupse plugin, some developer told me this is becouse the old ubuntu repe bvuild
[14:10] <auronandace> llsam: how old is your harddrive?
[14:11] <llsam> auronandace: eclipse is not the problem right now...i can leave without eclipse
[14:11] <llsam> auronandace: let me think..some 3 years...it is sata
[14:12] <auronandace> llsam: hmm, my guess is that eclipse is to blame
[14:12] <llsam> auronandace: what are you suggesting? to go and by new hd and install fresh system?
[14:13] <llsam> auronandace: shit..thats bad
[14:13] <auronandace> llsam: i'm not sure how you installed it, but i'd reccomend removing it
[14:13] <auronandace> !language | llsam
[14:13] <llsam> auronandace: how can be possible that eclipse messed so badly system?=
[14:14] <auronandace> llsam: i don't know, but if this problen occurred directly after installing the plugins, something changed somewhere that broke something
[14:14] <llsam> auronandace: sorry for my language! thats becouse im so destroyed now :)
[14:14] <cjoke> seems like I have a package installed in /usr/local/bin, and dpkg dont detect that package. so when I install the package (ref . newer version) it goes into /usr/bin. But when I do a which packagename. it takes the one in /usr/local/bin (old version). is that because of /usr/local/bin in export | grep PATH is defined before /usr/bin? and how is the correct way of uninstall it ?
[14:15] <theadmin> cjoke: Yes, whichever is defined first comes first
[14:16] <auronandace> llsam: things like this is why i only stick to what is in the official repos
[14:17] <llsam> auronandace: i will go now to by a new disk, and i will try to install new system. could you tell me if this brand new ubuntu is good and stable enough for my all hard core grafix stuff?
[14:17] <auronandace> llsam: 11.10 works fine for me
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> 'hardcore grafix'
[14:17] <mydogsnameisrudy> how big is your harddrive llsam ?
[14:18] <auronandace> llsam: not sure why you want to get a new harddrive
[14:18] <mydogsnameisrudy> i would dualboot 11.10 move data from 10.04 first
[14:18] <llsam> auronandace: i will need to install blender cycles render machine, with newwest nvidia driver, opensim server with mono, eclipse indigo and lot of other tools
[14:19] <auronandace> llsam: do you use a lot of ppas?
[14:19] <cjoke> theadmin, ok, then my (sudo?) dpkg environment is having /usr/bin/ before /usr/local/bin. and as the user trying too execute having it the other way in PATH then? or is it more too it ?
[14:20] <cjoke> omg, my sentences is build in a awfoul way. Ill figure it out, thanks :)
[14:20] <llsam> auronandace: yes...
[14:20] <auronandace> llsam: i see :)
[14:20] <auronandace> llsam: ppas are unsupported
[14:20] <auronandace> !ppa | llsam
[14:20] <llsam> auronandace: but no worry...i was always looking for conflicts
[14:21] <llsam> auronandace: but my work is so that i need tools which are not in repos
[14:21] <auronandace> llsam: the more ppas you use the more likely something might break
[14:21] <llsam> auronandace: i know that problem. but i must go on, that is my bread..:)
[14:22] <DeLorean719> have the zappos hashes been leaked yet?
[14:22] <theadmin> DeLorean719: That's offtopic.
[14:22] <DeLorean719> oh, and I suppose you're theadmin?
[14:22] <Pici> !illegal | DeLorean719
[14:22] <auronandace> llsam: no wonder you have loads of problems, i never use ppas and i've never had any problems
[14:22] <llsam> auronandace: look, becouse i cant solvve my problem now, and anyway my disk ist almost full, i rthink it is a goof ideea to buy new one and install new system
[14:24] <auronandace> llsam: i don't often say this but i think perhaps you would want to try a different distribution which supports the software you need
[14:24] <llsam> auronandace: or maybe you have anothere ideea ? i am very open
[14:24] <llsam> auronandace: i do not know windows system  and im only using open source
[14:25] <tastygirl> hi everybody
[14:25] <tastygirl> Any body can see me ?
[14:25] <tastygirl> I am a hot girl
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> tastygirl  no
[14:25] <auronandace> llsam: i didn't suggest windows
[14:26] <llsam> auronandace: maybe thoise archlinux would better support my intrest?
[14:26] <MonkeyDust> tastygirl  wrong channel and I bet you're a man who looks like a ZZ Top member
[14:26] <auronandace> llsam: i use arch and its very good, but this is getting a little offtopic for ubuntu support
[14:27] <llsam> auronandace: i understand..puh...
[14:27] <auronandace> llsam: feel free to pmme if you want to talk about other distros

[14:33] <slikts> why doesn't Alt+F2 work for me anymore! running 11.10
[14:33] <slikts> I can't even enable Alt+F2, because I go to Keyboard → Shortcuts → System → Show the run command prompt, and clicking there and pressing Alt+F2 does nothing
[14:34] <slikts> why do they have to constantly fuck with these things

[14:36] <Nfisher> HI all! is there any possibility to give out an acoustic signal when a certain user logs in to the machine?
[14:36] <gener1c> is that me or does gnome has tons of bugs lately
[14:36] <slikts> it's not you
[14:36] <gener1c> thanks :)
[14:37] <slikts> I have no idea what GNOME devs could be thinking
[14:37] <_UsUrPeR_> New question: where does top get it's current CPU stats from? I know it's somewhere in /proc/ , but where?
[14:37] <slikts> gnome is a broken piece of s*** now, bugs galore
[14:37] <gener1c> lol
[14:37] <MonkeyDust> _UsUrPeR_  try cpuinfo
[14:38] <slikts> and ubuntu just accepts everything from upstream
[14:38] <auronandace> slikts: you don't have to use gnome, i'm a happy xfce user
[14:38] <gener1c> well its hard maintaining other peoples bugs as a distro
[14:38] <mbeierl> slikts: If you use the LTS releases, you won't get the latest...
[14:38] <gener1c> id use lxde but im too used to gnome-shell already
[14:39] <_UsUrPeR_> MonkeyDust: /proc/cpuinfo shows the processors I am presently using, but not the CPU usage
[14:39] <dr_willis> lubuntu is quite nice.
[14:39] <slikts> mbeierl: I don't want ancient 10.10
[14:39] <gener1c> is lubuntu optimized for laptops?
[14:39] <slikts> or whatever the lts release is
[14:40] <dr_willis> gener1c:  it just uses lless resources mainly
[14:40] <consolecowboy> guys, i'm having some trouble installing the gimp, i wonder if you could help me out
[14:40] <gener1c> oh ok dr_willis
[14:40] <consolecowboy> i'm told i have broken packages, but synaptic claims to have fixed them
[14:40] <mbeierl> slikts: then don't complain about change if you want new.
[14:40] <gener1c> lol
[14:40] <slikts> mbeierl: don't tell me what to do and I won't tell you where to go
[14:41] <gener1c> mbeierl: its , dont complain about change if you want beta
[14:41] <LjL> !ot
[14:41] <mbeierl> slikts: then keep the conversation productive.
[14:41] <slikts> mbeierl: the last couple of ubuntu releases have been unstable
[14:41] <slikts> if they can't ship a stable release, they should just change the schedule instead of misleading users
[14:42] <MonkeyDust> guys, wrong channel
[14:42] <slikts> I wouldn't have used the latest if I didn't trust canonical to at least keep it sane
[14:42] <auronandace> slikts: 11.10 works great for me
[14:42] <gener1c> im using 11.10 :P
[14:42] <gener1c> my gnome is buggy as heck
[14:42] <slikts> auronandace: yes, it works for me also, after spending a week to coax it
[14:42] <slikts> auronandace: like switching to unity 2d so that compiz doesn't hog cpu constantly etc.
[14:43] <gener1c> ubgentoo
[14:43] <titash> clearall
[14:43] <auronandace> slikts: i use xubuntu so xfce works much better than compiz (in my experience)
[14:44] <slikts> and canonical have been pushing the updates: you get nag screens about them, and there's no clear warnings that these things are beta quality
[14:44] <dr_willis> plenty of options out there.
[14:44] <slikts> that all suck
[14:45] <dr_willis> so take the ranting to the ot channel
[14:45] <auronandace> slikts: do you need any help or are you just here to complain?
[14:45] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: If you're still here... I couldn't walk away from the problem... turned out that I had installed cpufrequtils & that was causing the error... now I can call it a day/night/or whatever it is :))
[14:45] <Myrtti> Chipzzz: excellent :-)
[14:45] <epaphus> Hello. I installed java runtime environment from Sun Java (original) .. works great in firefox. The problem is that i cannot execute a .jnlp file.  I read that a .jnlp can be executed with  javaws .. but that package comes from openjdk which i dont want to use. So what can i do?
[14:46] <coleix> guys need some help installing BTLive, i did chmod +x start.sh and then ./start.sh but it didn't do anything even after sudoing it
[14:46] <Chipzzz> Myrtti: thanks again for your help... I wouldn't have figured it out otherwise :)
[14:46] <Germanaz0> hello everybody
[14:46] <Germanaz0> I would like to know
[14:46] <Germanaz0> if there is some console metasearch like pinot
[14:46] <Germanaz0> but only for console
[14:46] <Nikki_> Hi!
[14:47] <LjL> _UsUrPeR_: i believe its /proc/processnumber/stat, but that needs parsing
[14:47] <Nikki_> Whenever I shutdown Ubuntu, it opens the CD drive. Can anyone help me? (Sorry for my bad english)
[14:47] <dr_willis> what are pinots features?
[14:48] <_UsUrPeR_> LjL: that would be correct for a single process. Does top/htop aggregate all processes together?
[14:48] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  a normall install or how did you install it?
[14:48] <LjL> _UsUrPeR_: i think that's what it does yes
[14:48] <Nikki_> dr_willis: On a live USB
[14:48] <LjL> Germanaz0: uhm, the pinot description says it can be used through the command line...
[14:48] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  that makes sence then
[14:48] <KRS_> anyone know how to get access to the drive from a live cd??
[14:49] <KRS_> i need to delete a file or more because the drive id full
[14:49] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  but ive never seen a live ysb do it here
[14:49] <auronandace> !mount | KRS_
[14:49] <skilz> How can I disable the graphical plymoth boot and enable a basic text boot and also enable text login not graphical
[14:49] <dr_willis> KRS_:  mount it and do what yiu need
[14:50] <Nikki_> dr_willis: What do you mean?
[14:50] <LjL> skilz: /etc/default/grub, change "splash" to "nosplash". for text login, use update-rc.d to stop lightdm from starting
[14:50] <dr_willis> !text
[14:50] <LjL> skilz: /etc/default/grub, change "splash" to "nosplash". for text login, use update-rc.d to stop lightdm from starting
[14:50] <LjL> or what dr_willis says i guess
[14:51] <skilz> I think im using gdm
[14:51] <KRS_> do i mount /sda1??
[14:51] <dr_willis> !mount
[14:51] <LjL> skilz: should be the same
[14:51] <dr_willis> text shiuld disable any *dm
[14:53] <dr_willis> noquiet nosplash nofb text      - should turn off most all things and have a pure text login
[14:53] <dr_willis> all eyecandy things  ;)
[14:54] <KRS_> tanx for great support!  auronandace & dr_willis
[14:54] <larryone> how do i cat the n bytes of the end of a file?
[14:54] <skilz> LjL: At the moment it says GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[14:54] <LjL> skilz: yeah, change it to what dr_willis said
[14:54] <dr_willis> larryone:  try the tail command options
[14:54] <ratcheer> I'm running 11.10 64-bit. Adobe Flash stops working. I install it again, test it, and it works fine. A few days later, it no longer works. Firefox plugins shows it is still installed.
[14:54] <larryone> cool thanks
[14:55] <larryone> tail -c 512
[14:55] <larryone> or whatever
[14:55] <larryone> nice
[14:55] <ratcheer> Please ignore that - I posted in the wrong channel.
[14:55] <larryone> perfect, thanks dr_willis
[14:55] <MonkeyDust> ratcheer  if it's for youtube only, try html5 http://www.youtube.com/html5
[14:55] <Nikki_> dr_willis: What do you mean?
[14:55] <ratcheer> I'm running 11.10 64-bit. Adobe Flash stops working. I install it again, test it, and it works fine. A few days later, it no longer works. Firefox plugins shows it is still installed.
[14:56] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  about what.
[14:56] <Nikki_> dr_willis: but ive never seen a live ysb do it here
[14:57] <dr_willis> usb ysb...
[14:57] <ratcheer> MonkeyDust: HTML5 works fine for Youtube, but many other things are still Flash.
[14:57] <Kasper> Hello everyone
[14:57] <Nikki_> dr_willis: No, not this
[14:58] <Nikki_> dr_willis: What's the problem?
[14:59] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  restate the issue to the channel may be a good idea
[14:59] <Nikki_> Whenever I shutdown Ubuntu, it opens the CD drive.
[15:00] <LjL> Nikki_, it's supposed to do that when running from a live CD, so if you just moved the live CD to USB, i guess it'll keep doing that
[15:00] <dr_willis> Nikki_:  you may want to fill in the details. live cd. usb  ect...
[15:01] <Nikki_> dr_willis: It is a live USB.
[15:01] <Nfisher> is there a possibility to let the pc beep if a new user logs in?!?
[15:01] <Nikki_> LjL: THanks
[15:02] <dr_willis> Nfisher:  could be doable  but that may be harder then it sounds
[15:03] <LjL> Nikki_: there is a thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1565624 but it's inconclusive
[15:03] <Kasper> First of alle, sorry for being a complete noob! I have a problem, I've just installed lubuntu on an asus eeebox 10007, when I booted the resolution wasn't correct so I changed it with xrandr but I can't figure out how to keep the resolution after a reboot.
[15:03] <Kasper> all*
[15:03] <LjL> Kasper: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Setting_XRandR_changes_persistently
[15:04] <Nfisher> dr_willis, hmmm......
[15:04] <Kasper> LjL: Thanks alot I'll have a look :)
[15:05] <h00k> !helpersnack | LjL
[15:05] <Nikki_> LjL: Thanks
[15:06] <theishi> I messed something up pretty good, perl and gems do not work anymore, they freeze and I think something in my system maybe corrupt. Any good way of reinstalling all or most of my programs without nuking?
[15:07] <LjL> theishi: first, try reinstalling the package "ubuntu-desktop" to ensure you have everything needed. if that doesn't help, i'd suggest using the program "debsums" to find out about any files which might be corrupt/modified, and reinstall the relevant packages
[15:08] <coleix> Guys how do I check if there is something missing for a installation? it doesn't give me any errors when i try ./BTLive or with sudo
[15:08] <dr_willis> perl uses gems?
[15:08] <nielz> theishi: what did you mess up?
[15:09] <dr_willis> coleix:  pershap read through that script for a clue
[15:09] <dr_willis> whats btlive anyway
[15:09] <theishi> nielz: Well most things seem to be working fine, but perl freezes when running tested scripts. gems will not install anything, and I recently told apt-get to ignore some warnings that I worry is causing problems now
[15:10] <coleix> a new bittorrent protocol for streaming needs the program
[15:10] <JesusChrist> Guys I keep getting the message "Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ferramroberto/extra/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found" can I remove that repo?
[15:10] <theishi> LjL: How do I reinstall it? You mean remove it and then install it again?\
[15:11] <LjL> theishi: nah just "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop", if it says it's already installed then it's not that
[15:11] <wh1zz0> Hi guys.. Suddenly my Wireless refuses to work. I have restarted up to 3 times and it's not coming on.. this was working few minutes ago and in fact wireless has never given me any problems on ubuntu.. Please can someone help me identify what the problem is here..?? I googled a bit but havent found a solution to this problem, .... Here is the result/output of running rfkill list from the terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/809715/
[15:11] <hudo> with lucid there are some notificatinos when with rythmbox a new song starts or thunderbird new email arrives
[15:11] <LjL> JesusChrist: yes, it'll be either in /etc/apt/sources.list or in one of the files at /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[15:11] <theishi> LjL: ok I did that and it says it is good
[15:11] <KRS_> i have google "video mode not supported" but no easy way to fix it...  anyone know how to fix it?
[15:11] <hudo> can i read these messages after they disappeared already ?
[15:11] <theishi> LjL: running debsums now
[15:11] <JesusChrist> LjL out of curiosity. What is that repo?
[15:12] <LjL> JesusChrist: i don't know, you were the one adding it... :P
[15:12] <dr_willis> KRS_:  for grub?
[15:12]  * wh1zz0 anyone?
[15:12] <coleix> start.sh says http://paste.ubuntu.com/809720/ but that doesn't work
[15:12] <LjL> theishi: if apt-get gave warnings though, that's a... warning bell. can you find out what the warnings were?
[15:12] <KRS_> dr_willis:  i think do...  (is that default?)
[15:13] <theishi> LjL: It was a few days ago, i do not remember what they were, i suppose there is a log of it somewhere though right?
[15:14] <dr_willis> KRS_:  edit the /etc/default/grub to make it use a text menu.
[15:14] <KRS_> dr_willis:  this Live cd vork so its not wrong with monitor
[15:14] <dr_willis> !grub2
[15:14] <LjL> theishi: /var/log/apt/term.log
[15:14]  * wh1zz0 ... says Hi guys.. Suddenly my Wireless refuses to work.

Here is the result/output of running rfkill list from the terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/809715/ 
[15:14] <Kasper> LjL: I can't really make it work, I mean. the kdm/gdm solution won't work, cause those folders arent present and the xorg.conf isn't there either, neither is the .xprofile one :(
[15:15] <LjL> Kasper: the kdm/gdm thing is outdated now there is lightdm, but xorg.conf or .xprofile should work, if they don't exist you can still create them
[15:16] <StR> hi everyone!
[15:16] <LjL> wh1zz0: suppose you've tried "sudo rfkill unblock all"?
[15:16] <NelsonM> Do I have to do anything special when setting up an Ubuntu box to later use kvm/libvirt to create virtual images? Or does the stock Ubuntu Server install work as a host?
[15:16] <Kasper> LjL: so i can just create a blank file in /etc/x11 called xorg.conf? or where would i put .xprofile?
[15:16] <StR> since yesterday I've been having problems with my window manager, it loads all the windows with transparency... anyone having the same problem?
[15:16] <coleix> no ideas on how to check if there is something missing for an installation?
[15:17] <hudo> can i read rhythmbox messages after they disappeared already ?
[15:17] <LjL> Kasper: yes, .xprofile would be right in your home
[15:17] <wh1zz0> LjL: yes I tried that.. but after doing that and running rfkill list again.. there is no change noticed
[15:17] <Kasper> LjL: Thanks I'll see if I can find it
[15:17] <LjL> Kasper: it probably won't exist, but that doesn't matter. edit it and add the line anyway
[15:18] <Kasper> LjL: Awesome, thanks
[15:18] <dr_willis> coleix:  sounds like that program is exiting with no errors
[15:19] <Erealz> is this the official help channel?
[15:19] <theishi> LjL: Very strange, I cannot see it in that log. It was something like the file signatures couldn't be confirmed or something
[15:19] <MonkeyDust> Erealz  yes
[15:19] <Erealz> k
[15:19] <b0ot> what application should I use in ubuntu to connect to a windows pc via remote desktop?
[15:19] <Erealz> thanks
[15:19] <dr_willis> coleix:  or its running in the background silently
[15:19] <zro> anyone use comcast email w/ thunderbird 7.0.1 on ubuntu 11.10 ?
[15:19] <Kasper> LjL: Moment of truth, rebooting now, I added the 3 xrandr lines i had and rebooted
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> b0ot  try rdesktop
[15:20] <coleix> dr_willis: don't think so because it doesn't recognizes BTLive yet
[15:20] <dr_willis> coleix:  see what ps says after you run btlive
[15:20] <LjL> theishi: uhm, well go with debsums. try "sudo debsums --generate=missing  --silent"
[15:21] <dr_willis> could be failing for other reasons
[15:21] <theishi> LjL: this is very strange, things are starting to work again
[15:21] <coleix> dr_willis: what's ps?
[15:21] <KRS_> dr_willis: what do i edit in the grub?  i just want to get in to my system again then i can change ther again
[15:21] <dr_willis> coleix:  a command
[15:21] <LjL> theishi: how did they fail before again? anything resembling segmentation faults?
[15:22] <theishi> LjL: just silent freezing
[15:22] <Kasper> LjL: didn't work :( These are the only lines in .xprofile right now: pastebin.com/VsFwGDSn
[15:22] <dr_willis> KRS_:  here if its just grub doing it. i can still boot to the desktop. you cant get that far?
[15:22] <LjL> theishi: if it's that transient, for some reason i tend to suspect hardware issues. i'd check your drives (smartmontools) and your memory (memtest86+)
[15:23] <theishi> LjL: you are probably right especially being it is working now...
[15:23]  * wh1zz0 :(
[15:23] <coleix> dr_willis: it apparently started working when I went to the stream page
[15:23] <KRS_> dr_willis: nope bios is ok but then it say "video mode not supported" in ubuntu boot up
[15:23] <id10t> 'lo all
[15:23] <LjL> Kasper: and those exact same line work if you run them manually?
[15:23] <fooblah> How do I get voice in #gcc?
[15:24] <Kasper> LjL: Yep
[15:24] <coleix> dr_willis: gonna try it tomorrow when the streaming for the dj show starts
[15:24] <rypervenche> How can I get Ubuntu to read an HFS+ partition whose disk uses GPT? I can't seem to get it to work.
[15:25] <theishi> LjL: Thanks btw, I appreciate it
[15:25] <KRS_> dr_willis: #GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 ???
[15:25] <LjL> Kasper: sounds like a bug with lightdm, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/794315 - anyway, it's probably better to do the xorg.conf thing, because .xprofile would only work with your account, not other users, and not at the login screen
[15:26] <auronandace> rypervenche: have you installed hfs/hfs+ file system utilities?
[15:26] <Kasper> LjL: So I'll just create a blank file and name it xorg.conf in the x11 folder, paste in the 3 lines, and save it yeah?
[15:26] <rypervenche> auronandace: I have. hfsprogs, hfsplus, and hfsutils
[15:26] <dr_willis> KRS_:  that sets the res. thesrs also a line to set a fallback text only menu
[15:27] <KRS_> dr_willis: #GRUB_TERMINAL=console ??
[15:27] <LjL> Kasper: no not those three lines, i'm afraid it's got a completely different syntax :( but the wiki page has an example
[15:27] <Kasper> LjL: Thanks, I'll look at it
[15:27] <dr_willis> KRS_:  i think so. see the grub2 factoid pages
[15:27] <KRS_> dr_willis: and uncomment it to remove the "# "??
[15:28] <dr_willis> # is a comment yes.. remove the #
[15:29] <dr_willis> and rerun update-grub

[15:35] <skulltip> polish question #2 - is ubuntu tv using amazon tv? how do they compare to netflix?

[15:36] <dr_willis> skulltip:  its a media player thing. not a tv channel

[15:43] <zro> oh... it is? its just not default wm ?/qui
[15:43] <Kasper> LjL: Just out of curiousity is it possible to automatically build an xorg.conf file from another computer with the same specs (the one i'm on now but the xorg.conf is empty still)?
[15:43] <zro> oops, sorry
[15:44] <LjL> Kasper: not sure what you mean... i know there is a program to create modelines according to specifications given, but that's about it
[15:44] <landono> I'd liek to only install security updates. Is there any way I can do that in apt-get?

[15:46] <auronandace> bambino__: lspci | grep vga
[15:46] <LjL> Kasper: well if they're identical specced, yes it would work... i'd just pastebin the file after you create it, and load that on the other computer

[15:48] <LjL> Kasper, i don't think it can be created automatically...
[15:48] <rosstaylor> greetings, I am having problems opening PDF file - how do I fix this?
[15:48] <LjL> AndyUbuntu: that was a bit spammy, next time please edit it so it takes one line
[15:48] <lake_> I went to a keyserver, and searched for my file, and I found long lists of User IDs, but they all have the same domain name. Isn't that a little fishy? Shouldn't the User IDs belong to a variety of trusting users?
[15:49] <Kasper> LjL: Oh well, better get to it. Do you know what I would put under "Driver" with an intel device? In the example it's an ATI card and it says "ati", so I take it it's just "intel"?
[15:49] <van> how much RAM should have PC to run latest ubuntu smoothly?
[15:49] <Mcl0vin> anyhelp folks
[15:50] <h00k> !requirements | van check here, I think it's 1GB
[15:50] <imbezol> van: you could probably get away with just a gig.. but as soon as you start firing up apps like libreoffice you're going to chew up a binch more
[15:50] <LjL> Kasper: yeah "intel" should work according to google
[15:50] <imbezol> van: if you run out of ram your system will start swapping to disk and things will slow down a lot
[15:51] <imbezol> van: if you really run out, ie you fill swap, the kernel will kill off processes to save itself
[15:51] <van> ye, just trying to do anything on this machine with 512 ram, its just bad..
[15:51] <imbezol> you can run a decent server with that
[15:51] <Kasper> LjL: Awesome, curiosity: What was your search phrase on google that time?
[15:51] <imbezol> desktop.. not so much
[15:51] <nW44b> hi, i want to put the 'nomodeset' option at the boot. Otherwise i just get a black screen. How can i do that ?
[15:51] <rosstaylor> greetings, I am having problems opening PDF file - how do I fix this?
[15:52] <LjL> Kasper: i assumed "intel" would be correct, so i googled for "driver intel xorg.conf", found http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Intel_GMA#X11_Configuration
[15:53] <nW44b> i followed this tutorial : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1864957

[15:59] <xsl> auronandace: LjL: can you help on installing an higher version on it plz?
[15:59] <LjL> lake_: i'm not sure you're asking an Ubuntu question in the first place...?
[15:59] <auronandace> xsl: you could use a ppa but they are unsupported
[15:59] <LjL> xsl: download the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and install it with dpkg

[16:01] <AndyUbuntu> finally think i would like to go back to windows after all these years
[16:01] <AndyUbuntu> such a dissapointment
[16:01] <ikonia> AndyUbuntu: ok - off you go then
[16:01] <AndyUbuntu> hahaha
[16:02] <auronandace> dimas_: can you get to the grub menu?
[16:02] <need_help> is there any way to launch ubuntu in a limited-graphics way ? my graphic card is damaged, and all I can use is windows with its vga.dll, any serious driver crashes my pc
[16:02] <KRS_> Is there any way to reinstall ubuntu and keep the files in home dir?
[16:02] <AndyUbuntu> well since an update i have not been able to edit any video from kdenlive or openshot
[16:02] <dimas_> auronandace, grub menu?
[16:02] <LjL> lake_: maybe ##crypto
[16:02] <ikonia> AndyUbuntu: well, enjoy using windows then, use the tool that's best for your needs
[16:02] <auronandace> KRS_: you could backup your /home/
[16:02] <AndyUbuntu> that is actually on both my ubuntu machines
[16:02] <scarleo> KRS_, You have /home on separate partition?
[16:02] <ikonia> need_help: the grub menu has a safe graphics mode
[16:03] <RamtinA> hi ! i bought a socks5 account , now i have user and pass but how can i use it in ubuntu???
[16:03] <need_help> ikonia: problem is I can't access grub menu since last ubuntu upgrade, I get "no signal" can I do anything or am I doomed ?
[16:03] <KRS_> auronandace: well then i wouldnt be in this situation...  then i would just reinstall it  ;-)
[16:03] <ikonia> RamtinA: you need applications that are socks 5 compatible
[16:03] <KRS_> scarleo: nope.. :-(
[16:03] <lake_> LjL: thank you.
[16:04] <ikonia> need_help: you can force your video card to "safe" mode with the xorg.conf file setting the driver to "vesa"
[16:04] <RamtinA> ikonia: do you know any application for ubutnu?
[16:04] <AndyUbuntu> i really am not a fan of windows at all, would not want to go back. Would just like a video application like kdenlive and openshot to work on one machine. Instead now they will not work on either machines.
[16:04] <scarleo> KRS_, so just make a backup then, then reinstall and then copy back what you need from /home
[16:04] <ikonia> RamtinA: depends what you want
[16:04] <ikonia> AndyUbuntu: you just said you did want to go back there
[16:04] <need_help> ikonia: but how do I edit it ? is doing that through windows a safe way to do it ?
[16:04] <ubuntu_> how to unmount and hide (permanent) only the Windows Partitions that are shown at the desktop?
[16:04] <RamtinA> ikonia: everything is good ! i just wana surf the internet :P
[16:04] <ikonia> need_help: use a live CD if possible
[16:05] <auronandace> KRS_: what? backup /home/ reinstall then copy wht you need from your backup (like what scarleo suggests)
[16:05] <ikonia> RamtinA: well, you don't want a web browser to use socks,
[16:05] <need_help> ikonia: I'll try, thanks for help
[16:05] <RamtinA> ikonia: so what i need?
[16:05] <ikonia> need_help: not sure how you'll get on with it
[16:05] <KRS_> scarleo/ auronandace : well does liveCD have a dvdburner?
[16:05] <AndyUbuntu> ikonia, just seems as though it is an update that has caused this issue as both machines are not working with both editor and need to put some videos online
[16:05] <ikonia> RamtinA: why can't you just surf the net properly ?
[16:05] <ikonia> AndyUbuntu: understood
[16:06] <need_help> ikonia: I'll try editing xorg from windows
[16:06] <persiluhu> is there any ubuntu/apache channel? or someone who might help me with lost /var/www folder, after upgrade?
[16:06] <ikonia> need_help: you shouldn't do that
[16:06] <jutnux> persiluhu: What's the problem?
[16:06] <RamtinA> ikonia: i'm from iran and half of websites are filter :) i need proxy .i need a socks5 client
[16:06] <ikonia> need_help: the xorg.conf is on ext4, ext4 file system support for windows is very bad
[16:06] <scarleo> KRS_, Brasero is there by default I think
[16:06] <ikonia> persiluhu: lost, explain "lost" ?
[16:06] <auronandace> KRS_: i think so, brasero might be on there (not sure, i use xubuntu)
[16:06] <jutnux> RamtinA: This channel isn't going to allow you to get a proxy.
[16:07] <AndyUbuntu> stability is hugly important. Dont want to rant about it as ubuntu is awesome. Cant find fixes anywhere and cant spare all day trying to fix this issue :s
[16:07] <persiluhu> i upgarded to 11.10 after that there was no www folder anymore. have no idea where it is
[16:07] <jutnux> persiluhu: Did you simply upgrade or do a fresh install?
[16:07] <persiluhu> there is not even a new empty one its just gone
[16:07] <RamtinA> jutnux: i don't want a proxy i just need a client name :-??
[16:07] <KRS_> auronandace: yeah found that now.. :-)
[16:07] <persiluhu> i upgraded from usb stick without internet connection
[16:07] <jutnux> RamtinA: Do a bit of Googling.
[16:07] <RamtinA> jutnux: i did
[16:08] <jutnux> persiluhu: type sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ if you want apache easily.
[16:08] <RamtinA> jutnux: and i think that's good for you to know i can't search proxy in my country :) :P
[16:08] <MonkeyDust> persiluhu  try the command tasksel (task select)
[16:08] <persiluhu> i know, but the point is i need the old folder back. there where homepages and scripst in it i stupidly didnt backup
[16:09] <AndyUbuntu> anyone know why rendering would constantly crash with kdenlive?
[16:09] <need_help> ikonia: we'll thanks anyway, i'll try tapping blindly to safe graphics mode
[16:09] <ikonia> need_help:  no no no no
[16:09] <ikonia> need_help: just boot from a livecd - hopefully that should give you some sort of display
[16:10] <scarleo> RamtinA, use tor https://www.torproject.org/
[16:10] <RamtinA> scarleo:ok thank you so much :)
[16:10] <LjL> !info redsocks | RamtinA, but socks is hardly the only option
[16:10] <LjL> err
[16:10] <LjL> Precise package, nevermind
[16:10] <LjL> !info tsocks | RamtinA
[16:11] <LjL> RamtinA: remember it might be illegal to do so, and you might end up in trouble.
[16:11] <RamtinA> LjL: thanks
[16:11] <RamtinA> ubottu: thanks
[16:12] <AndyUbuntu> i have tried uninstalling and installing both kdenlive and openshot with no avail
[16:12] <AndyUbuntu> anyone could share their comments that would be great
[16:12] <persiluhu> how come /var/www is deleted after upgrade, but /home  isnt?
[16:13] <ikonia> persiluhu: it shouldn't be
[16:13] <MonkeyDust> persiluhu  fresh install or upgraded with a command?
[16:13] <vite> does ubuntu server have energy management?
[16:13] <ikonia> vite: yes

[16:14] <vite> ikonia: how does it work/
[16:15] <ikonia> vite: what do you mean ?
[16:15] <persiluhu> ikonia: :) sure. but it is. its not in lost+found or sth ... but: the owner was the system user and it was on an own partioin. any ideas?

[16:15] <ikonia> persiluhu: it's gone
[16:15] <usuario> Hi! How do I install anything in Ubuntu 9.04 if repositories stopped updating last year?
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> Nfisher  try adding it to .profile
[16:16] <vite> ikonia: how does ubuntu 11.10 server energy management work
[16:16] <ikonia> you need to use the old repo, but be aware nothing is maintained, it's dead
[16:16] <ikonia> vite: what do you mean how does it work
[16:16] <xsl> auronandace: LjL: i installed the .deb using dpkg and it works fine, didn't break anything - ty for your support
[16:16] <LjL> Kasper: maybe the intel driver wasn't the right driver. try doing "cat /var/log/Xorg.*.log | grep -i driver"

[16:17] <xsl> btw anyone knows a tool to capture server loads on a nice web interface ( cpu, mem, disk, network)
[16:17] <persiluhu> ikonia: thats shit! ^^ but how come that ubuntu does delete partitions on upgrade??? thats seems verry stupid ... btw home wasnt touched
[16:17] <Nfisher> MonkeyDust, how do i do that?
[16:17] <ikonia> persiluhu: easy with the language please
[16:17] <ikonia> persiluhu: it shouldn't do that, as I said
[16:17] <ikonia> persiluhu:  you need to find out why it did
[16:17] <usuario> blablabla thanks for your "UNatention"
[16:17] <usuario> bye
[16:17] <vite> ikonia: how is the energy managed?
[16:18] <ikonia> vite: through kernel processes
[16:18] <AndyUbuntu> ok, would anyone recommend any decent video editors?
[16:18] <persiluhu> ikonia: cant you give me hint where to start?
[16:18] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: kdenlive
[16:18] <xsl> !kdenlive | AndyUbuntu
[16:18] <ikonia> persiluhu: what do you mean ??? you did the upgrade, check the logs of what it did, check the documentation of what's meant to have done
[16:19] <ikonia> persiluhu: hang on
[16:19] <pangolin> AndyUbuntu: cinelerra, avidemux, stopmotion, blender, lives, openmovieeditor, jahshaka, openshot  —  GNOME: pitivi, kino  —  KDE: kdenlive  —  console: gopchop, avidemux-cli
[16:19] <ikonia> persiluhu: is /var/www on it's own partition ?
[16:19] <vite> ikonia: does that mean that if server idles or less cpu is needed, then it will consume less energy from the grid?
[16:19] <auronandace> xsl: AndyUbuntu seems to be having trouble with both kdenlive and openshot
[16:19] <persiluhu> it used to be
[16:19] <AndyUbuntu> xsl, thanks
[16:19] <ikonia> vite: it will request less from the PSU, how efficient your PSU is will depend on how much less energy it uses
[16:19] <AndyUbuntu> pangolin thanks I will have a look
[16:19] <Erealz> anyone run desura
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> Nfisher  maybe this link is useful http://www.linux-archive.org/ubuntu-user/421854-bashrc-profile-password-less-ssh.html
[16:20] <AndyUbuntu> does anyone know of the professional one that is coming to linux?
[16:20] <vite> I wonder if the power supply throttles back and uses less power from the grid if that happens
[16:20] <AndyUbuntu> preferrebly i would love to get kdenlive working again
[16:20] <persiluhu> ikonia: /var was on a own one. except www everything is still there
[16:21] <ikonia> vite: it should
[16:21] <AndyUbuntu> as it is awesome
[16:21] <ikonia> persiluhu: this is a sill question, but is your /var partition mounted ?
[16:21] <ikonia> silly
[16:21] <persiluhu> ikonia:sure
[16:22] <Nfisher> MonkeyDust, i now added a bashscript into /etc/init.d with the lines "screen -amdS ssh ~/script.sh" should do the job, huh?
[16:22] <Kasper> LjL: This is from the machine that I am currently on (the machine with no problems): http://pastebin.com/60mPuPhq - And this is from the one with the video problem: pastebin.com/M6dx1NDY
[16:22] <ikonia> persiluhu: has it just deleted the content of that one dir, or everytyhing on /var is new ?
[16:22] <zaki> hi
[16:22] <MonkeyDust> Nfisher  cannot say
[16:22] <zaki> which syslog log file is the most generic syslog log file in /var ?
[16:22] <whistler_> folks, I'm drowning in udev…. can somebody please explain to me how i can tell udev to ignore hard drives @boot time
[16:23] <whistler_> I' see there are blacklist rules… but not sure how to implement these appropraitely
[16:23] <ts2> zaki: I guess you mean /var/log/syslog
[16:23] <LjL> Kasper: intel seems correct to me based on that... i don't know :\
[16:23] <AndyUbuntu> ok anyone know why openshot would crash on importing any files?
[16:23] <zaki> ts2, may be, i'll check
[16:24] <Kasper> LjL: Ah well, it hasn't happened since a reboot. Knock on wood :)
[16:24] <vpl> hi
[16:24] <zaki> ts2, if you'll want to track what's going on in the system generally, which log file you'll tail -f ?
[16:24] <persiluhu> ikonia: seems all to be new. but there isnt even a new empty www
[16:25] <ikonia> persiluhu: is apache installed ?
[16:25] <ts2> zaki: that one
[16:25] <persiluhu> not anymore due to no internet connection on update. i expected that.
[16:25] <AndyUbuntu> could mlt be causing issues at all?
[16:26] <zaki> ts2, thx
[16:26] <AndyUbuntu> with both the video editors?
[16:26] <ikonia> persiluhu: I didn't expect that
[16:26] <ikonia> persiluhu: if you have apache installed and upgrade, it should upgrade apache, not remove it
[16:26] <ikonia> persiluhu: it should certainly not delete all of /var
[16:26] <ikonia> that is not an upgrade, that is a clean install
[16:26] <mdel> whats the deal with inotify limits?
[16:27] <mdel> i cant tail files right now
[16:27] <ikonia> in what way "the deal"
[16:27] <mdel>  tail tells me "no space left on device"
[16:27] <mdel> googled a bit, seems to be inotify related
[16:27] <ikonia> why do you think that's inotify ?
[16:27] <mdel> google told me
[16:27] <ikonia> ok - what did google tell you to do to fix it ?
[16:28] <mdel> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/700958
[16:28] <ikonia> mdel: ok, so what does the bug tell you to do to fix it ?
[16:28] <ikonia> is there a fix released ?
[16:28] <mdel> nothing
[16:28] <AndyUbuntu> apparently the issues with openshot and kdenlive stem from mlt
[16:28] <mdel> nope
[16:28] <persiluhu> ikonia: thats what i thought, too. may there be anything whith the ownership of www? i chown it to the systemuser to use it more comfortable while working on homepages. i hoped to find it in crypted private data or sth...but it isnt
[16:28] <ikonia> then there is no fix yet
[16:28] <ikonia> persiluhu: it really shouldn't matter
[16:28] <persiluhu> ikonia: k
[16:29] <ikonia> persiluhu: it should not be deleting anything, let alone the whole partition and un-installing applications
[16:29] <ikonia> persiluhu: what method did you use to upgrade ?
[16:29] <AndyUbuntu> does anyone have the latest version of kdenlive and mlt working?
[16:29] <AndyUbuntu> any responses would be a gift :P
[16:29] <xsl> I have
[16:29] <persiluhu> ikonia: i used a usb-stick and choosed update in the installermenu
[16:29] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: i have
[16:30] <ikonia> I'm not familier with how the usb routine would go, but I can only assume a bug
[16:30] <mdel> ikonia: i understand.. im not looking for a fix
[16:30] <mdel> im wondering what the hell inotfiy is doing
[16:30] <AndyUbuntu> which version of mlt are you using? xsl
[16:30] <mdel> why is there a limit at all
[16:30] <jpds> mdel: inotify is tracking the file for changes?
[16:31] <persiluhu> ikonia: upgrade, sry
[16:31] <mdel> jpds: not sure what it does
[16:31] <ikonia> persiluhu: I know what you meant
[16:31] <mdel> jpds: im trying to tail -f some log files
[16:31] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: 0.7.7+git20120115
[16:31] <persiluhu> ikonia: ^^ i dont want to look more stupid right now ;)
[16:31] <mdel> and it tells me "out of space"... found a bug report saying the error is not correct, and that the issue is that inotfiy limit is reached
[16:31] <jpds> mdel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inotify
[16:32] <ikonia> persiluhu: nothing stupid about what you are saying
[16:32] <xsl> anyone knows a nautilus frontend to format USB drives (fat32)
[16:32] <mdel> jpds: yes, I know
[16:32] <AndyUbuntu> xsl, did you install through the repo?
[16:32] <mdel> again, im wondering why there is a limit
[16:32] <persiluhu> ikonia: except for not backuping important data on upgrade
[16:32] <mdel> no worries, ill figure it out
[16:32] <ikonia> persiluhu: that's an error a lot of people make
[16:33] <jpds> mdel: To make sure that not too many resources are being used and stopping everything from going out of control?
[16:33] <mdel> jpds: i guess, but having a fixed limit per session is strange
[16:34] <AndyUbuntu> xsl i have the exact same version and its not rendering anything with kdenlive.
[16:35] <AndyUbuntu> with mlt not working it actually effects both openshot and kdenlive
[16:35] <whistler_> guys, i am building a software raid array with 30 disks…. what would be an appropriate method for determining which disks is which once it fails… i know /etc/mdstat will tell me /dev/sdy or what have you… but how do i know which one is /dev/sdy.. can i statically set udev to auto mount a particular drive as a particular device…. thank you.
[16:37] <compdoc> whistler_, that sounds a bit crazy
[16:37] <whistler_> how do?
[16:37] <whistler_> so
[16:37] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: but you can open it properly? only the rendering has problems?
[16:37] <persiluhu> ikonia: thx for your time, so  far. do you have any further ideas, or shall this remain a mystery?
[16:37] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: i installed the PPA
[16:38] <ikonia> persiluhu: you'll need to go through the logs/upgrade logs, there is no way this should happen. I'd also suggest (if possible) re-install and re-try the same upgrade to see if this is reproducable
[16:38] <compdoc> 30 disk software raid. how do you even attach 30 disks?
[16:39] <AndyUbuntu> xsl, i installed via the ppa also, its just when rendering. I can choose to render in any way and it crashes instantly
[16:39] <persiluhu> ikonia: ok ill give it another try.
[16:39] <whistler_> one of these: http://blog.backblaze.com/category/storage-pod/
[16:39] <xsl> AndyUbuntu: i dont render in a few weeks... let me check it
[16:40] <AndyUbuntu> xsl, ok thanks. I rendered a few files before christmas and it was fine
[16:40] <AndyUbuntu> first time rendering again recently
[16:41] <zivester> anyone know how to find the total filesize of all *.jpg files in the current directory (not recursively)
[16:42] <whistler_> du -h ./*.jpg
[16:42] <whistler_> then add em up using cut
[16:42] <whistler_> script it
[16:42] <LjL> no need
[16:43] <LjL> there is a --total option
[16:43] <whistler_> jiggy
[16:43] <whistler_> so du -h ./*.jpg --total    ?
[16:44] <zivester> `du -c *.jpg` : -bash: /usr/bin/du: Argument list too long
[16:44] <LjL> whistler_: that works.
[16:44] <LjL> zivester: uhm, that will happen if you have very many files...
[16:44] <nvictor> hey all
[16:45] <nvictor> weird characters have appeared in my folder
[16:45] <nvictor> and i can't delete them
[16:45] <nvictor> not sure if they are files or subfolders
[16:46] <Kasper> LjL: Thank you very much for your help, have a nice day!
[16:48] <nobo__> Hi how can i block connections from my vpn to port 5900
[16:48] <chicognu> there is a keyboard shortcut to switch between a active aplication to the launcher ?
[16:49] <gamerpro2000> chicognu, what do you mean exactly?
[16:49] <gamerpro2000> Alt+Tab doesn't work?
[16:49]  * llsam  looking for the supporter who i talk 2hours bevor. Forgot his nick.
[16:49] <chicognu> by "laucher" I mean the sidebar in the left side with the aplication shortcut gamerpro2000
[16:50] <AndyUbuntu> surely this should of been tested before releasing
[16:50] <gamerpro2000> Right.....why exactly do you need to switch to it?  Its always persistent on the side, so its not going anywhere
[16:50] <AndyUbuntu> i thought everything was working will prior to any updates s
[16:50] <LjL> gamerpro2000: uh, is it? i thought it disappeared when you maximized windows or moved them towards it
[16:51] <chicognu> gamerpro2000, when the active aplication are maximized it disapear
[16:51] <gamerpro2000> Hmmmm.....I thought if you hovered on the farthest left point of the screen with maximized applications, it would reappear......
[16:51] <auronandace> llsam: hi
[16:52] <gamerpro2000> I usually use the Ubuntu Classic Gnome environment, though, so..........not an expert.  However, you can use the "Show Desktop" widget to hide all maximized windows and get back to the desktop
[16:53] <CharminTheMoose> I'm doing some debugging of the bootcd-i386/bootcd-mkinitramfs packages.. can udev and filesystems like /dev/pts and /dev/shm stop functioning properly due to doing mount --move, while it's still running?
[16:53] <chicognu> gamerpro2000,  my deskto is a little bit slow, brb
[16:53] <gamerpro2000> Chicognu, ok.
[16:55] <gamerpro2000> AndyUbuntu, while I wait for him to return, what issue where you having?
[16:55] <gamerpro2000> *were
[16:55] <gamerpro2000> Also, I'm surprised its so quiet in here.  There is practically nobody talking.
[16:56] <AndyUbuntu> it seems everytime i go to render a video the renderer crashes
[16:56] <nvictor> exit
[16:56] <nvictor> exit
[16:56] <nvictor> lol wrong window
[16:56] <chicognu> gamerpro2000, I'm newbie to unit, almost never use it before... Where is the "show the desktop widget" ?
[16:56] <AndyUbuntu> this is everytime when using kdenlive
[16:57] <gamerpro2000> chicognu, I think you can add menu bar widgets in Unity and one of them is a show desktop button.  Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but try right clicking on the menu at the top and see if you get an add widget option
[16:57] <rabc> just installed latest lubuntu is there any way to update drivers for usb devices usb 2.0 hard drive caddy not showing up
[16:57] <gamerpro2000> Again, I'm not much of an Ubuntu Unity person.  Personally hate the thing
[16:57] <pksadiq>  /msg dragonslay hello,
[16:57] <gamerpro2000> rabc, you shouldn't need drivers for a generic USB hard drive caddy.  Does it show up as connected when you run demsg?
[16:58] <AndyUbuntu> gamerpro2000 it seems it is an issue with mlt though dont know what it could be
[16:58] <gamerpro2000> AndyUbuntu, mtl?
[16:58] <rabc> thx gamepro2000 what is demsg thx
[16:58] <gamerpro2000> *mlt
[16:58] <AndyUbuntu> gamerpro2000 mlt
[16:58] <AndyUbuntu> yeah
[16:59] <gamerpro2000> rabc, dmesg is a terminal command.  It shows the message buffer for the kernel, and since the kernel controls hardware-to-software interaction, it'll tell you if a new device has been connected when it finishes outputting all the other stuff going on.
[17:00] <rabc> k ill try that gamepro2000 thx
[17:00] <gamerpro2000> So if you open terminal and run it, it'll give you a bunch of data on kernel information and the ending should have something about "USB High Speed Device" or whatever connected when you plug in the hard drive.  That is, if its even working/showing up
[17:00] <rabc> k thx ill try that
[17:01] <gamerpro2000> No problem.  Its a good generic hardware diagnostic command to learn how to use if you're going to mess with linux
[17:01] <NeverHere> is it possible to send a ubuntu system a command from remote, without logging into the system? just to send a simple command?
[17:02] <gamerpro2000> rabc: Make sure the simple stuff is checked before messing with that, though.  Power, Another USB port, etc.
[17:02] <gamerpro2000> NeverHere, easiest way to run remote commands is through SSH
[17:02] <NeverHere> yes gamer1990 but i don't want to have to ssh onto my server everytime my bot dies just to start it again
[17:03] <gamerpro2000> NeverHere, what kind of bot?  Would a cron job that restarts it be out of the question?
[17:03] <NeverHere> hmm
[17:03] <NeverHere> its an eggdrop bot
[17:03] <atpa8a> hello
[17:04] <atpa8a> is it possible to prohibit apt-get (or do-release-upgrade) from restarting services?
[17:04] <gamerpro2000> NeverHere: Hmmm.......Never used Eggdrop's IRC bot before.  For now, I suppose you could probably run a service eggdrop restart or whatever the service is called on an hourly cron.
[17:04] <NeverHere> what is a cron?
[17:04] <NeverHere> i have never heard of this before
[17:04] <jpds> !cron | NeverHere
[17:05] <rabc> yea thx gamepro2000 it show the usb usb 1-3: new high speed USB device number 10 using ehci_hcd
[17:05] <rabc> [ 2248.739851] scsi8 : usb-storage 1-3:1.0
[17:05] <NeverHere> gamer1990, i'll give it a shot
[17:05] <rabc> and "sb 1-3: USB disconnect, device number 10" when swithed off
[17:05] <gamerpro2000> NeverHere, Cron is the automated scheduler that runs things on certain periods of time, generally hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly.  There is folders under /etc/ that have cron.daily, cron.weekly, and so on that you can but bash scripts in that will run then on the cycle they are configured.
[17:06] <gamerpro2000> So just make an executable script, put it in there, and it'll run
[17:06] <nW44b> hi, i put the 'nomoseset' option. I had to : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1864957 . Does it means that i will never be able to hibernate or put it in sleep mode ?
[17:06] <nW44b> *nomodeset
[17:07] <gamerpro2000> nW44b, I think you can still sleep and hibernate.  Disabling ACPI will break that, but not a nomodeset argument.....I think.  Don't quote me on that.
[17:08] <nW44b> gamerpro2000: well, i tried both, and it just does not work.
[17:08] <Michael_> Hi! I cannot get middle mouse button emulation working under 11.10. this is my xorg.conf https://gist.github.com/1641203 I've also tried activating it in "gpointing-device-settings" Any ideas what else I could try?
[17:08] <Teroristu> hi all
[17:09] <gamerpro2000> nW44b, have you tried messing with your BIOS settings for S1 and S3 power controls?  Sometimes sleeping is disabled in your BIOS and that breaks Ubuntu's ability to sleep.
[17:09] <mang0> is it possible to add a custom launcher to the 11.10 sidebar?
[17:09] <gamerpro2000> mang0: Custom Launcher?  Clarify please.
[17:09] <nW44b> gamerpro2000: S1 and S3 ?
[17:10] <mang0> gamer1990: I have a binary that I want to link to in the sidebar, so I can open it without browsing the the directory etc. Could I just drag and drop the binary into the sidebar to add a launcher to it?
[17:10] <gamerpro2000> mW44b: S0-5 are different operating modes.  S0 is on, S1 is light sleep, and the further you go, the deeper the sleep.
[17:11] <gamerpro2000> mang0, you should be able to.  As I was telling another person earlier, me and Unity are not friends, but I'm pretty sure any shortcut will drop in the Ubity launcher.
[17:11] <gamerpro2000> *Unity
[17:11] <Budd> My wireless connection isn't taking its ip6 address (or adopting a local-link one). tcpdump shows that radvd packets are coming in.
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> hi
[17:12] <mang0> gamer1990: Me and Unity are not friends either, but I hate xfce and kde even more, and gnome-shell seems to be uber slow, practically unusable... :(
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> how i cam flood
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> guyes
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> ??
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> i hav loic
[17:12] <jutnux> ansaralsunnah: We aren't going to tell you that here.
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> i need chnall and server name
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> plz
[17:12] <gamerpro2000> mang0, Gnome Desktop?  Slow?  I've heard of more people complaining about Unity being slow than anything.
[17:12] <gamerpro2000> mang0: You've tried Ubuntu Classic?
[17:12] <ansaralsunnah> ok admin
[17:12] <mang0> gamer1990: Feel free to SSH into my machine and see for yourself! :P
[17:13] <mang0> gamer1990: Gnome classic sesssion you mean?
[17:13] <jutnux> Gnome-shell is majorly slow and uses a lot of ram.
[17:13] <gamer1990> please stop highlighting the wrong person -.-
[17:13] <ansaralsunnah> what??
[17:13] <ansaralsunnah> just one talk
[17:13] <ansaralsunnah> heheh
[17:13] <gamerpro2000> mang0: This is what I'm talking about: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2011/08/return-to-ubuntu-classic-desktop-in-ubuntu-11-10/
[17:13] <jutnux> ansaralsunnah: You aren't going to be told.
[17:13] <ansaralsunnah> ok
[17:14] <Ivoz> Hi there. I issued pkill -P 23415, which was probably stupid. Most stuff dissapeared, and nothing worked. I hard rebooted. If I start ubuntu normally, it never loads any of the 5 dots. If I start it in recovery mode, the screen stays black. What do? T_T
[17:14] <mang0> gamerpro2000: Ugh, this is so confusing, gamerpro and gamer - sorry gamer1990, I'll watch out next time :P
[17:14] <kristjan> hi, which display manager does xubuntu  11.10 use by default? is it lightdm?
[17:14] <adom> xubuntu uses xfce i thought. someone correct me?
[17:14] <adom> hence the "x"
[17:15] <mang0> gamerpro2000: Seems that the sidebar won't take my binary. To google, and beyond!
[17:15] <gamerpro2000> mang0: I was wondering why you kept getting my name wrong, but whatever.  haha.
[17:15] <ts2> kristjan: yes, lightdm
[17:15] <gamerpro2000> Mang0, personally, if I was you, I've just revert to class Gnome......but your choice :P .
[17:15] <kristjan> ts2, ok thanks
[17:15] <ts2> adom: xfce is a desktop interface, lightdm is the login manager
[17:16] <ktraglin> adom: you're correct
[17:16] <gamerpro2000> Budd: What wireless problems are you having?
[17:16] <gamerpro2000> You can't receive an IPv6 DHCP address?
[17:16] <ansaralsunnah> ه ؤشىف بمخخيهىل
[17:16] <MonkeyDust> !ar| ansaralsunnah
[17:16] <Teroristu> jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
[17:16] <ansaralsunnah> i cant
[17:16] <ansaralsunnah> do it
[17:16] <Ivoz> anyone?
[17:16] <mang0> gamer1990: I do like Gnome, but tbh, the way I see it: In just a few weeks time, I'm going to be buying a new computer, with at least 4GB ram and quad-core, so in theory that *should* just about run gnome-shell, hehe! And yeah, I was deleberately tabbing 1990, it was a mistake!
[17:16] <Teroristu> fsfsd
[17:16] <MonkeyDust> well...
[17:16] <mang0> deliberately*
[17:16] <ansaralsunnah> aha
[17:16] <jutnux> !arabic | ansaralsunnah
[17:17] <thiago_> oi
[17:17] <gamerpro2000> OI!
[17:17] <MonkeyDust> polloi
[17:17] <thiago_> algum brazuca?
[17:17] <pangolin> !br
[17:18] <Lantizia> I'm trying to setup an NFS server, all the files i'm trying to share are nobody:nogroup and when i mount them on the client machines I'd like to be able to read/write to them without making them owned by any one particular user... is this possibel?
[17:18] <thiago_> bom tarde
[17:18] <RingZer0> QUESTION: My current user Todd would like to launch a GTK (x) application as another user, ringzer0.  I am trying: xhost +ringzer0 && su ringzer0 -c "google-chrome" but to no avail.  This can not be this difficult of a thing to do.  Its so ez with Windowz, right click, run-as.
[17:18] <gamerpro2000> Lantizia: Just change the permissions to 777 and make the owner everyone:everyone
[17:18] <MonkeyDust> Lantizia  it is, how far did you get?
[17:18] <gamerpro2000> Keep in mind, this means ANYONE can edit them, so be careful who can access it
[17:19] <gamerpro2000> Generally, its a terrible security practice to do it that way.....but its possible.
[17:19] <Ivoz> How can I troubleshoot ubuntu not booting?
[17:19] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Please elaborate more.  "Not booting" describes about 100 million things
[17:19] <MonkeyDust> Lantizia  basically, chmod 666 or 777 gives all rights to all
[17:20] <gamerpro2000> Lantizia: What MonkeyDust said
[17:20] <Nach0z> Ivoz: when you see the purple screen with dots, hit alt-tab or esc to see the bootup sequence, it'll help people here know what the problem is
[17:20] <Lantizia> MonkeyDust, I'd prefer not to do that... as when apps/games and generally people make/edit files on it - not always do you get those permissions
[17:21] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: normal boot - none of the 5 rings ever glow. recovery boot - after 2 lines, one about something deprecated, the screen stays black
[17:21] <MonkeyDust> Lantizia  then who must be able to r/w ?
[17:21] <thiago_> I have the Xubuntu 10.04 in my Notebook. And I want know the way to upgrade my Kernel for 3.0 of more. I try this, through download on the Kernel.or, and then, I extract the bz2 file, but the ssytem continues with 2.6 kernel. Anyone know the best way to do this?
[17:21] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Do what Nach0z said.
[17:21] <Lantizia> MonkeyDust, anyone
[17:21] <MonkeyDust> Lantizia  then what's wrong with chmod 777 ?
[17:22] <Lantizia> MonkeyDust, I just said
[17:22] <gamerpro2000> thiago_: Its best to upgrade to 11.10 if you want the 3.0 kernel.  10.04 was built for 2.6.  You can upgrade it, but you have to compile it for it to work correctly.
[17:22] <MonkeyDust> Lantizia  yes, and it's contradictory
[17:22] <Ivoz> alright, thanks Nach0z, gamerpro2000
[17:22] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: No problem.  Stop back in when you have more
[17:22] <gamerpro2000> Well....nevermind....you're gone already.  haha.
[17:22] <sjuxax> hello. I just accidentally executed rm -rf /usr/share on a slowish machine. It only ran < 5 seconds so I don't think many packages were hurt. How can I run aptitude in such a way that this will be fixed?
[17:23] <gamerpro2000> sjuxax: Where you running it as root?
[17:23] <gamerpro2000> or sudo?
[17:23] <sjuxax> yes
[17:23] <thiago_> very good. gamerpro2000
[17:23] <thiago_> thanx man
[17:23] <gamerpro2000> thiago_: No problem
[17:24] <sjuxax> gamerpro2000: clearly, otherwise nothing would have happened -- i was trying delete a subdirectory. I think barely any damage was done so I don't want to hassle with a reinstall
[17:24] <sjuxax> I just want a sanity check form aptitude and reinstall the missing pieces
[17:24] <thiago_> the NFTS partition's cant be read now
[17:24] <Michael_> Hi! I cannot get middle mouse button emulation working under 11.10. this is my xorg.conf https://gist.github.com/1641203 I've also tried activating it in "gpointing-device-settings" Any ideas what else I could try?
[17:24] <thiago_> but the 3.0 kernell allow me to read this file system
[17:24] <jutnux> sjuxax: You can't.
[17:25] <thiago_> and I need this facility
[17:25] <gamerpro2000> sjuxax: Right, but I didn't know how much of a power user you are.  Some people join these chats with less knowledge than how to plug in the power cable.
[17:25] <sjuxax> jutnux: There is no function within aptitude to check for missing files from packages?
[17:25] <gamerpro2000> Wasn't trying to sounds stupid.  Just wanted to see if you needed to do anything at all or if nothing really happened.
[17:25] <thiago_> understand? but ok, I need now upgrade the Xubuntu version
[17:25] <sjuxax> I just have to reinstall this whole thing?
[17:25] <mbeierl> RingZer0: this behaviour is part of the security of the Linux desktop.  The display itself is access controlled too.  you need to do an xhost + (for anyone) or xhost +localhost (to allow local connections).  The thing after the "+" is the computer name, not the user
[17:25] <xangua> sjuxax: well yo do not deletet 'packages' , you deleted files
[17:25] <jutnux> sjuxax: You deleted parts of files.
[17:26] <DragonSlay> sjuxax: repair broken packages using synaptic
[17:26] <jutnux> sjuxax: Let this be a lesson to you not to force changes unless absolutely sure what happened.
[17:26] <AndyUbuntu> woooo, awesome. Still cant find a decent fix for the kdenlive issues  :)
[17:26] <sjuxax> jutnux: I deleted whole files -- the only partially deleted files would have the pieces that were being processed at the time I ctrl+c'd
[17:26] <sjuxax> DragonSlay: Thanks, I'll give it a try
[17:26] <DragonSlay> sjuxax: also try reconfiguring packages.
[17:26] <AndyUbuntu> wooooo, yeah :)
[17:26] <xangua> (11:25:00) thiago_: but the 3.0 kernell allow me to read this file system - do you have ntfs-3g installed¿
[17:27] <mang0> gamerpro2000: In case you're interested, I found it. http://askubuntu.com/questions/80013/how-to-pin-eclipse-to-the-unity-launcher All sorted!
[17:27] <gamerpro2000> sjuxax: Its possible you could piece it back together if you have a proper backup, but trying to repair it is going to take more time than a reinstall.....I know from personal experience when removing a user who's home directory I forgot I had assigned to my storage drive and told it to delete the users home dir upon deletion X-(
[17:27] <gamerpro2000> mang0: Thanks.  Will hang onto that in my bookmarks for future reference and take a peek
[17:28] <mbeierl> RingZer0: then, when executing the program, it might still need to have its DISPLAY environment variable set, so the program knows where the output is supposed to go: su ringzer0 -c "DISPLAY=:0.0 google-chrome"
[17:28] <thiago_> yes xangua
[17:28] <RingZer0> mbeierl: did you read my full thing?  I did that.
[17:28] <thiago_> ops...one moment
[17:28] <sjuxax> yeah, it looks like I am just going to have to reinstall. That is pretty lame. Oh well.
[17:28] <mang0> gamerpro2000: You make a .desktop file with the infomation needed, which you can then put into your sidebar.
[17:28] <mang0> sjuxax: What's the problem?
[17:28] <gamerpro2000> mang0
[17:28] <thiago_> Xangua, this is a program for Xubuntu to read the NFTS partitions?
[17:29] <gamerpro2000> mang0: He accidentally ran an rm command as root and nuked part of his drive.
[17:29] <mang0> Uh oh
[17:29] <mbeierl> RingZer0: I only see your one post.  What else did you say in your "full thing"?
[17:29] <xangua> !info ntfs-3g | thiago_
[17:29] <MonkeyDust> gamerpro2000  root is never a good idea
[17:29] <mang0> gamerpro2000: I'm too scared to ever use rm. I just open a root nautilus if I need to delete protected files!
[17:29] <dies_irae> I wish I could drag and drop youtube vids from browser to my Desktop
[17:29] <sjuxax> mang0: It's not as bad as that -- the process barely occurred, this machine is a VM on a portable disk so drive activity is quite slow
[17:29] <MonkeyDust> dies_irae  days of sorrow
[17:30] <sjuxax> it ran < 5 secs
[17:30] <AndyUbuntu> has anyone had any issues with kdenlive on ubuntu 11.10 recently?
[17:30] <AndyUbuntu> anyone at all?
[17:30] <mbeierl> RingZer0: unless you're telling me that "ringzer0" is also the name of the computer and it is set to 127.0.0.1 or so in /etc/hosts
[17:30] <sjuxax> so, since only a handful of packages were affected, I was hoping there was a way to make aptitude check for missing files and fix
[17:30] <gamerpro2000> sjuxax: 5 seconds in computer time is about 5 million calculations and operations :P .  Haha.
[17:30] <jutnux> sjuxax: It'll still delete <10kb files pretty quickly.
[17:30] <mang0> sjuxax: I see. So you didn't rm -rf / or something :P
[17:30] <sjuxax> mang0: I rm -rf /usr/share ;)
[17:30] <gamerpro2000> MonkeyDust: True, but root is necessary at times.
[17:30] <xangua> dies_irae: there are plenty programs that do that
[17:30] <gamerpro2000> Hence why it exists.  I just make damned sure I'm certain what I'm doing before I do it
[17:31] <mang0> sjuxax: O.o
[17:31] <thiago_> ok, but the reading procedure is for terminal (text only) or you can see the files on the desktop in the Thunar?
[17:32] <sjuxax> Can I run the installer in "unattended" mode?
[17:32] <gamerpro2000> sjuxax: For future reference, in case you oops again, I would make a backup of "/" on a seperate drive either using a cron script or to a server using something like the BackupPC package.
[17:32] <thiago_> I go to he apt-get to download and install this program.
[17:33] <gamerpro2000> BRB guys
[17:33] <xubuntu> hey

[17:33] <xubuntu> i am installing xubuntu
[17:33] <xubuntu> but i got a prob
[17:33] <xubuntu> when i select my language
[17:34] <xubuntu> and then it is preparing xubunut
[17:34] <sjuxax> gamerpro2000: I have it under control, thanks. This was a VM I just minted last night so it's not a big deal. I will however create a template VM for Oneiric as I was tempted to do last night but was too lazy :\
[17:34] <xubuntu> and when i click at continue
[17:34] <xubuntu> the installer freezes :-(
[17:34] <xubuntu> ...
[17:34] <AndyUbuntu> heres something that could help, when i go to render. it says "No matching profile"
[17:34] <xubuntu> ...
[17:34] <AndyUbuntu> that could be something
[17:34] <xubuntu> could somebody help me
[17:34] <xubuntu> i got earlier xubuntu
[17:34] <thiago_> I want understand more for that OS and dominate more for bases, commands, that things...
[17:35] <xubuntu> and everything working fine
[17:35] <Pici> !enter
[17:35] <mbeierl> sjuxax: I have had reasonably good experience recovering a system in a similar state by just running the installer over top of the existing install.  It picked up most everything, "repaired" the missing core files, and all I had to to after was re-install applications that I added after the initial install.
[17:35] <CharminTheMoose> I'm doing some debugging of the bootcd-i386/bootcd-mkinitramfs packages.. can udev and filesystems like /dev/pts and /dev/shm stop functioning properly due to doing mount --move, while it's still running?
[17:35] <RingZer0> mbeierl: ringzer0 is the user i want chrome to exec under
[17:35] <litropy> Hi, all. I filed the folllowing bug report last night. Essentially, I'm looking for a stop-gap solution in the mean time. This might be either fooling indicator-datetime or geoclue into thinking everything is okay. Yes, this is 12.04, but maybe you guys can help. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/918546
[17:35] <mbeierl> RingZer0: so, your "xhost +ringzer0" is incorrect as I said.
[17:36] <AndyUbuntu> can anyone here provide a helping hand at all
[17:36] <mbeierl> RingZer0: what goes after the "+" is the network name of the computer, or its IP address.  Not the user name
[17:36] <AndyUbuntu> ??!@!

[17:46] <rcmaehl> I need help with a shell script
[17:47] <gamerpro2000> rcmaehl: Elaborate
[17:47] <rcmaehl> well I'm trying  to run a command that is obtained from command=`tail -n 1 file`
[17:48] <rcmaehl> and I run the command using `$command`
[17:48] <rcmaehl> however it doesn't seem to want to run commands such as cat filehere | grep -i text
[17:48] <gamerpro2000> rcmaehl: OK, so you make a text file and did a chmod +x to make it executable, right?
[17:49] <rcmaehl> no
[17:49] <Myrtti> rcmaehl: why would you grep a cat file when you can grep the file directly?
[17:49] <CharminTheMoose> I'm doing some debugging of the bootcd-i386/bootcd-mkinitramfs packages.. can udev and filesystems like /dev/pts and /dev/shm stop functioning properly due to doing mount --move, while it's still running?
[17:49] <gamerpro2000> Myrtti: My thoughts exactly.....Not entirely sure what he's trying to accomplish
[17:49] <zykotick9> rcmaehl: sidenote - unnecessary use of cat in your example.  "grep -i text /PATH/TO/FILE"
[17:49] <rcmaehl> also this is coded in bash
[17:50] <AndyUbuntu1> seems however many times i reinstall kdenlive the error still exists
[17:50] <dagerik> hvordan får jeg til fin indentering med \t? har to kolonner med data, men de blir ikke alignet under hverandre
[17:50] <gamerpro2000> rcmaehl: Why don't you explain what you're trying to accomplish exactly and we'll try and help.  Like "I'm trying to restart a service with a script" or something like that
[17:50] <Pici> !no | dagerik

[17:52] <rcmaehl> gamerpro2000: I'm trying to pass commands from a WINE program into the linux enviroment by making WINE write to a file and then gettin the command that WINE wrote to a file and executing it (various safegaurds are in place to prevent harmful commands from being run)
[17:52] <fil__fil> hello...question... in order to make an executable script to run without the prefix './ ' we can put it in /usr/local/bin or create a link, and place the link there. I have a script which calls other scripts, i created a link,put it in blahblah/bin, but even though it works, it doesnt call the other scripts. The others are in the same folder where the original script is.. Any ideas?? it i am offtopic, i am sorry..and pls point me to the right
[17:52] <fil__fil>  channel??:):)
[17:52] <zykotick9> AndyUbuntu1: FYI reinstalling packages rarely fixes programs, that's more a windows troubleshooting technique then a gnu/linux one.
[17:53] <zykotick9> s/programs/problems/
[17:53] <AndyUbuntu1> zykotick9 completly agree. Just cant find a solution at all
[17:53] <Pici> fil__fil: #bash might be a better place for your question. If you're calling the program from a different path then you'll need to provide the absolute paths to your scripts. The main script thinks that it is in /usr/bin.
[17:54] <AndyUbuntu1> such a shame as if it persisti will stop using the applications alltogether :s
[17:54] <Ivoz> Nach0z, gamerpro2000 - it says stopping automatic crash report generation failed, and starting lightdm display manager failed
[17:54] <fil__fil> Pici: thanx.. i ll go check there as well... second time in two days u help me!
[17:55] <Nach0z> weird.
[17:55] <zykotick9> fil__fil: ideally you shouldn't be just dropping things into /usr, leave that for the package manager.  Creating a ~/bin and relogging in will put it in your PATH automajically.
[17:56] <epw> hello
[17:56] <epw> I'm sorry to rush, but I have a fairly urgent problem that has got me really stuck
[17:56] <rcmaehl> gamerpro2000: any ideas
[17:56] <rcmaehl> or shall i upload my script?
[17:56] <epw> does anyone here have any experience with the Gnome bluetooth programs?
[17:56] <gamerpro2000> Lemme see a pastebin
[17:57] <zykotick9> !anyone | epw
[17:58] <ilovemesomeubunt> I just set up a cloud server...  Root has been set up (enable) by the provider.  Should I add a new user so I can sudo by visudo?  and then disable root?  I shut off SSH for root in sshd.conf
[17:58] <epw> ok. I have a bluetooth adapter, and it was working just fine over the past few days
[17:58] <javier_faj> Hi! I installed in "ubuntu software center" a program called MrBayes. It uses a text file (.nxs) which in windows version must be placed in the folder where MrBayes files are. How can I do that in ubuntu? Where are my Mr.Bayes files and folders? Where can I place my text file so it can be used by the program? Thanks for any suggestion!
[17:58] <epw> Today, when I have a phone interview I intended to use it for, my laptop has suddenly stopped even detecting that it has a bluetooth adapter at all
[17:58] <epw> I have tried rebooting, switching the wireless hardware switch on and off
[17:58] <epw> restarting the daemon
[17:58] <epw> and can't find anything
[17:58] <MonkeyDust> epw  maybe you need blueman
[17:59] <epw> have there been any updates in the last day or so that could have changed things so I need it now?
[17:59] <gamerpro2000> epw: Does the bluetooth adapter still show as recognized?
[17:59] <epw> I'll install it, but this sudden change has thrown me
[17:59] <epw> not when I go to System->Preferences->Bluetooth
[17:59] <zykotick9> javier_faj: see if you have a ~/mrbayes or ~/.config/mrbayes folder(s) [i've never used the program/game so not sure, i'm only giving general suggestion]
[17:59] <gamerpro2000> I mean, does it still show as recognized as a USB device or PCI or whatever it is
[18:00] <gamerpro2000> First of all, its it a dongle USB bluetooth?
[18:00] <gamerpro2000> Or internal/
[18:00] <epw> I don't see anything with lspci or lsusb, but unfortunately don't remember how it used to appear
[18:00] <epw> internal
[18:00] <ilovemesomeubunt> Anyone good with sudo?
[18:00] <rcmaehl> gamerpro2000: I'm going to have to upload to my website :| I cnat access pastebin or anything http(s) right now
[18:01] <oldIT78> How do you get the proprietary ati drivers to work with xorg.conf?
[18:01] <alexslx> how to give nfs folder write permission (via fstab?)?
[18:01] <lucidguy> Is there a command to determine what speeds eth0 is currently transfering at?
[18:01] <gamerpro2000> epw: This might sound simple and stupid, but have you checked your BIOS to make sure it didn't randomly switch to disabled in there?  I've had BIOS do WEIRD things where it disabled Bluetooth or Wifi adapters without warning and had to be re-enabled.  Usually from low BIOS battery.
[18:01] <javier_faj> zykotick9, thanks for your suggestion. There is no mrbayes folder in /home (I think there is where you meant), neither in .config. Hope someone else has another suggestion!
[18:01] <ilovemesomeubunt> oldIT78, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[18:01] <zykotick9> epw: with the usb adapter unplugged run "dmesg | tail -25" to see the output before, then plug the adapter in (wait a second or two) then run "dmesg | tail -25" again - does anything change?
[18:02] <epw> gamerpro2000: No, thanks, I'll try that soon
[18:02] <epw> zykotick9: I feel embarrassed, but don't know how to unplug the usb adapter that's inside my laptop
[18:02] <epw> is there a command to do it?
[18:02] <ansaralsunnah> help :@
[18:02] <oldIT78> ilovemesomeubunt: ill give it a read.
[18:02] <ansaralsunnah> pliz im here evry day
[18:03] <zykotick9> epw: sorry, my suggestion won't work then (was assuming USB adpater).  Good luck.

[18:09] <burg> hello. on ubuntu 10.04, when i try apt-get install firefox, it sais that it is already the newest version, but my version is 3.6. how can iupdate it?
[18:09] <gamerpro2000> ilovemesomeubuntu: create a user, add them to the sudoers file, then disable root, yes
[18:09] <h00k> ilovemesomeubunt: ^ this
[18:09] <mbeierl> ilovemesomeubunt: if this is accessible to the internet, most definitely!
[18:10] <xangua> !fx6 | burg the ppa has already firefox9
[18:10] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: "add them to the sudoers file" is bad info, add them to the "admin" group is better
[18:10] <whistler_> adding them to the sudo group in /etc/group
[18:10] <xangua> burg: you can also download it from firefox.com , extract it and run it
[18:11] <zykotick9> xangua: that's not a good suggestion
[18:11] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Forgive me.  I'm used to working with an Ubuntu server, not desktop.  I rarely use the actual Ubuntu desktop distro.
[18:11] <ilovemesomeubunt> mbeierl, If I disable root then I have no console access via the web gui.  SSH doesn't allow root
[18:11] <xangua> zykotick9: nothing i suggest is ever good to you D:
[18:11] <epw> Just wanted to say, thank you, it's fixed now!
[18:11] <ilovemesomeubunt> Is root enabled in Ubuntu server by default or did my provider just do this?
[18:11] <epw> I honestly don't know what changed, there was nothing in the BISO, but rebooting fixed
[18:11] <ilovemesomeubunt> It is rackspace
[18:12] <burg> thanks
[18:12] <zykotick9> xangua: manually installing packages means, no updates and non-distro specific installation - thus no support here.
[18:12] <gamerpro2000> ilovemesomeubuntu: Root is disabled by default on Ubuntu.
[18:12] <epw> I will be certain to lurk and try to help others in return in the future, but for now, I have an interview coming up.
[18:12] <xangua> zykotick9: neither firefox.com and the ppa are supported D:
 hello. on ubuntu 10.04, when i try apt-get install firefox, it sais that it is already the newest version, but my version is 3.6. how can iupdate it? << your repo is outdate bra
[18:12] <ilovemesomeubunt> gamerpro2000, I thought it was but wasn't sure on the SERVER
[18:12] <dorbin> How can I install gcc from my liveUSB? I need gcc to build my NIC drivers so that I can go online..
[18:13] <gamerpro2000> ilovemesomeubuntu: Yeah, its disabled until you give it a password on the server distro.  The first user you create is automatically capable of running sudo commands.
[18:13] <zykotick9> xangua: true PPAs are unsupported (wink, wink)
[18:13] <xubuntu> dorbin
[18:13] <xubuntu> what do you actually mean?
[18:13] <dorbin> xubuntu, yes
[18:13] <xangua> zykotick9: but i read somewhere ubuntu will be providing firefox update for previous releases
[18:13] <gamerpro2000> ilovemesomeubuntu: So technically speaking, you shouldn't need to enable root to run root-like commands ;)
[18:13] <dorbin> xubuntu, I need to apt-get gcc
[18:13] <zykotick9> xangua: that policy started after 10.04 though... not sure it applies to previous versions
[18:14] <Kircle> I've just updated the family laptop to 11.10 and the wireless has stopped working. On the keyboard when it's on the light goes white whilst when it's off it says orange. I've pressed it to come on but it just stays orange. It's a Compaq Cq56 with broadcom wireless
[18:14] <ilovemesomeubunt> gamerpro2000, That isnt how it is on Rackspace.  It enables root and then you have to create a user.  My question is should I visudo and allow this new user to have sudo and then disable root
[18:14] <dorbin> xubuntu, ..but I don't have internet..
[18:14] <Kircle> I've tried reinstalling the driver but to no avail
[18:14] <dorbin> xubuntu, I need gcc to compile drivers for my NIC
[18:14] <gamer1990> can happen mang0^^
[18:14] <rudyl313> how is the initial PATH variable set in a linux bash shell? .. I looked at /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc and neither seem to explicitly set the PATH variable
[18:15] <gamerpro2000> ilovemesomeubuntu: Personally, if you disabled SSH access to root, whatever.  You're good.  As long as you don't have any other terminal access to it (like telnet), then disabling the actual root user isn't really necessary.  Good security precaution, but not necessary.
[18:15] <dorbin> xubuntu, I have found the debs on my liveUSB stick - how do I install them manually?
[18:15] <xubuntu> please explain more
[18:15] <xubuntu> lol
[18:15] <zykotick9> dorbin: installing the build-essential package might be a good idea, if you plan on compiling (it should install gcc BTW)
[18:15] <xubuntu> english isnt my native language bra
[18:15] <xubuntu> you can edit the squashfs
[18:15] <xubuntu> xd
[18:15] <xubuntu> :p
[18:15] <FloodBot1> xubuntu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:15] <xubuntu> oh i am very sorry floodbot1
[18:16] <gamerpro2000> dorbin: To install a .deb package, do a deb -i [packagename.deb] and it'll install
[18:16] <dorbin> zykotick9, but I need gcc to compile the network drivers so I can go online
[18:16] <auronandace> xubuntu: i hope you mean to say bro rather than bra
[18:16] <gamerpro2000> as long as you have the dependencies resolved.
[18:16] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: dpkg -i ..
[18:16] <dorbin> OK
[18:16] <xubuntu> i like the word bra, so i say bra instead of bro
[18:16] <ilovemesomeubunt> gamerpro2000, I'm gonna either do tarpitting or use certificate logins + password
[18:16] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: it appears lightdm isn't starting... do you know any logs i can check?
[18:16] <gamerpro2000> ^Correction: What zykotick9 said
[18:17] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Huh?  I never asked a question.
[18:18] <Ivoz> You asked me to follow Nach0z' advice
[18:18] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Not sure how, but for some reason ever since I started using debian, I always think that deb -i is the command, until I try it and rage at myself.
[18:18] <xubuntu> xD
[18:18] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Remind me again what that was....I've answered about 6 questions since you left.  Haha.
[18:18] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: ubuntu not booting
[18:18] <Nach0z> gamerpro2000: his ubuntu aint bootin
[18:19] <Nach0z> and I told him to alt-tab during boot
[18:19] <rhillis> I have a question about vsftp
[18:19] <ron> how can I find out which version of nvidia drivers I have installed from console?
[18:19] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: OH right!  lol.  Now I remember.  So, lightdm isn't starting on boot?
[18:19] <gamerpro2000> What does it give you for an error?
[18:19] <aeon-ltd> rhillis: go on..
[18:19] <Ivoz> i can access the partition atm gamerpro2000 is there any logs i can check?
[18:20] <zykotick9> ron: 2 methods -- 1) dpkg -l | grep nvidia 2) assumes current: apt-cache policy nvidia-current
[18:20] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: no, it just says [  fail  ] during boot process
[18:20] <Kircle> guys it says in the wireless menu that wireless is disabled by hardware switch. I've pushed the wirless button but it stays off. The button's little light is supposed to change colour when you push it to indicate it's on but since updating to 11.10 it doesn't
[18:20] <Michael_> Hi! I cannot get middle mouse button emulation working under 11.10. this is my xorg.conf https://gist.github.com/1641203 I've also tried activating it in "gpointing-device-settings" Any ideas what else I could try?
[18:20] <rhillis> I downloaded it using apt-get, but I'm beginning to think it doesn't come with OpenSSL support. Is this a fact?
[18:20] <ron> zykotick9: thanks
[18:20] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: I suppose a dmesg would be best to start with
[18:20] <gamerpro2000> and then pastebin me the results
[18:20] <Ivoz> what's that?
[18:21] <gamerpro2000> Run the command "dmesg" in terminal and it should spit a bunch of stuff back.  You said you have terminal access right now.
[18:21] <gamerpro2000> Just no GUI, right?
[18:21] <Guiri> I'm attempting to purge fglrx and install the native drivers but I'm running into this error:  http://fpaste.org/tT87/
[18:21] <Ivoz> i cant get to a terminal
[18:22] <Ivoz> it never finishes booting...
[18:22] <ron> is there a way to get hardware configuration information in console as well? ram, cpu, board model?
[18:22] <Pici> ron: sudo lshw
[18:23] <rhillis> To ask another way: will I need to install vsftp from source to include ssl support?
[18:23] <ron> Pici: thank you as well :)
[18:24] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Then give me the syslog
[18:24] <gamerpro2000> Also, sorry.  You didn't tag me, so I didn't see the message
[18:24] <Ivoz> wheres that
[18:25] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: /var/log
[18:25] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: http://pastie.org/3214796 is lightdm.log
[18:26] <Pici> rhillis: You'll need to make sure that your vsftpd.conf file has ssl_enable set to YES as well as any other options that may go along with that.
[18:26] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: What about the X Server log?
[18:26] <rhillis> I did set those. I'm asking because filezilla doesn't seem to be able to connect when I enable ssl.\
[18:26] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: syslog has 10000 lines
[18:26] <zykotick9> Ivoz: it's Xorg that is failing to start, perhaps it's logs would be more interesting
[18:27] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: It looks like X Server is causing the crash.  What's the logs from there say?
[18:27] <gamerpro2000> Yeah, my thoughts exactly.
[18:27] <Ivoz> is that Xorg.0.log ?
[18:27] <gener1c> gamerpro2000: like in any other horror movie, the only caption is "all i remember is the phrase killall and the rest is a big blank"
[18:27] <yumbo> Hi, does anyone know how-to increase the the right-click touchpad area in Ubuntu 11.10?
[18:27] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Should be Xorg.0.log, yeah
[18:27] <gamerpro2000> gener1c: True life :P
[18:27] <Ivoz> is pkill supposed to be as bad as killall
[18:28] <zykotick9> Ivoz: killall isn't bad!
[18:28] <gener1c> pkill is the best thing ever
[18:28] <gener1c> shun the none beliver
[18:28] <gener1c> shunnnnnnn
[18:28] <gamerpro2000> shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnn
[18:28] <gener1c> :)
[18:28] <gamerpro2000> Going to the candy mountain cave, Charlie :P
[18:28] <auronandace> !ot
[18:29] <gamerpro2000> Awe, auronandace had to kill the fun ;)
[18:29] <gamerpro2000> JK
[18:30]  * gener1c not sure if directed at us or the guy asking about killall
[18:30] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: zykotick9: http://pastie.org/3214816
[18:31] <geekster> Hi I have been unable to access DistroWatch.com for the last 2 days. Is site down ?
[18:31] <auronandace> geekster: no
[18:31] <meberhart> no
[18:31] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Oh s***.....you're using an Nvidia card
[18:31] <gamerpro2000> lol
[18:31] <zykotick9> Ivoz: why do you have an xorg.conf?  moving it might be a good idea "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nonworking" type thing
[18:32] <Ivoz> zykotick9: i dont have a linux env atm
[18:32] <jamesbond-4711> hi
[18:32] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: He's using the proprietary NVidia drivers and those automatically generate a static XOrg.conf
[18:32] <jamesbond-4711> I'm currently installing the latest version of ubuntu on my thinkpad T41 and I am stuck at the "Keyboard layout" dialog
[18:32] <Ivoz> i can change the file
[18:32] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: well not automatically (i don't thing), but after "sudo nvidia-xconfig" perhaps ;) [might have changed, be an ubuntu thing to auto do it]
[18:33] <Kircle> Guys I've updated to 11.10 and the keyboard switch to turn the wireless on and off won't allow me to turn it on. I keep pressing it but it stays off? broadcom BCM4313
[18:33] <Ivoz> would Screen "Screen0" work gamerpro2000?
[18:33] <jamesbond-4711> there are two columns: in the left, I have selected "German" for the keybard layout - what is the right column for?
[18:33] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Who knows......all I know is that NVidia and Ubuntu have been a thorn in my side since the day I first started playing with the OS ;)
[18:33] <Ivoz> zykotick9: nvidia-settings
[18:33] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: you haven't tried ATI have you ;)
[18:34] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Oh, I have ;) .  Its.....uh......fun?
[18:34] <Ivoz> i dunno which is worse :S
[18:34] <zykotick9> Ivoz: nvida-settings is slightly different, the issue is that xorg.conf is corrupt somehow
[18:34] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: You could try just moving the XOrg.conf to a Xorg.conf.bak file and reboot and see if it figures it out on its own ;)
[18:34] <gamerpro2000> and if not, well, no worse off
[18:35] <oldIT78> One of the ubuntu help pages says that the open source ati radeon driver should support my video card. however when I first installed my card ... ubuntu did not boot to the log in screen. only getting to the recovery screen allowed me to install the proprietary drivers. can anyone think of what i may be doing wrong?
[18:35] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Ati is fun because you either go with the open source drivers with have better displaying of pretty much anything and handle multi-seat better or you use the proprietary, which look like crappy, but the HDMI sound ACTUALLY works
[18:35] <Pseudoephedrine> How what editor would i use to open a .o file that was downloaded with unrealircd?
[18:36] <gamerpro2000> Wow, I fail at grammar today.
[18:36] <xubuntu> muwahah
[18:36] <Aikar> Pseudoephedrine: an .o file is a compiled binary
[18:36] <Aikar> not neccessarily executable, but not something you edit
[18:36] <zykotick9> Ivoz: specifically "Parse error on line 6 of section ServerLayout in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf " -reen0" is not a valid keyword in this section." can you edit the file?
[18:37] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Although, I heard that the open source ATI driver now has HDMI sound......I'll have to see it to believe it though.
[18:37] <Ivoz> zykotick9: yes
[18:37] <Auriga> A while back I converted a video file to audio, it was via the command line, but I can't think what I googled to get to where I did... Any ideas?
[18:37] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: "open source ATI driver" is technically incorrect, as it relies on proprietary firmware.  Just saying it's not technically free/open.
[18:37] <Ivoz> zykotick9: i was think of changing to     Screen         "Screen0"
[18:38] <zykotick9> Ivoz: look for -reen0 should be Screen0 probably
[18:38] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz and zykotick9: I feel like the best solution is just to rename the file to a .bak and let Ubuntu regenerate it upon reboot.  I don't see an actual -reen0 argument being passed by the XOrg.conf file in there.....unless I'm blind
[18:38] <Pseudoephedrine> Aikar: so its not a certain script is editable? what about a .so file?
[18:38] <Ivoz> zykotick9: the conf is in that same paste, btw
[18:38] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: if the ati drivers are supposed to support my card ... but it doesnt boot ... any tricks to figuring out why it doesnt boot?
[18:39] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: i agree! but Ivoz says that's not possible (using a LiveCD it probably would)
[18:39] <Aikar> Pseudoephedrine: are you familiar with windows? a .so is linux equiv to a .dll essentially. its the "linked" version, so also a binary
[18:39] <Ivoz> says whats not possible zykotick9?
[18:39] <zykotick9> Ivoz: moving the xorg.conf file
[18:39] <Aikar> Pseudoephedrine: you wont be editing .o or .so files, youll have to edit the source code and recompile
[18:40] <Ivoz> zykotick9: oh i can move it now
[18:40] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: Do what Ivoz is doing now and interrupt the boot to see where its failing on boot-up
[18:40] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: I'm pretty sure he said earlier he had access to the file system.
[18:40] <Ivoz> oh yay ill have a buddy
[18:40] <zykotick9> Ivoz: well move it to xorg.conf.bak - reboot and it should fall back to nouveau/vesa or whatever
[18:40] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: that sounds like a headache and a half.
[18:40] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Do you have the ability to rename the file?
[18:40] <Ivoz> gamerpro2000: i found the check box that made it read only :)
[18:40] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: Welcome to Linux sometimes ;)
[18:41] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: that doesn't help
[18:41] <Ivoz> (unticked it)
[18:41] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: The computer only reads it anyway, doesn't change it.  Rename it from Xorg.conf to Xorg.conf.bak
[18:41] <gamerpro2000> or move it someplace else out of that folder
[18:41] <gamerpro2000> that you won't forget where you put it ;)
[18:41] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: instead of doing a fresh install of 11.04, i did an update. Do you think if i did a fresh install it would have made a difference?
[18:41] <Ivoz> alright im gonnsa go do some rebooting
[18:41] <Kircle> how do you get a broadcom BCM4313 wirless card working on 11.10 on a compaq laptop
[18:42] <MonkeyDust> !bcm| Kircle
[18:42] <zykotick9> !broadcom | Kircle
[18:42] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: Its definitely possible.  Upgrades are a PITA with ATi drivers.  You could also try installing the Proprietary ATI drivers (latest version of course) from terminal and see if it improves your situation
[18:42] <Ivoz> thanks gamerpro2000 zykotick9 hopefully ill see you on the other side :)
[18:43] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: L8er ;) .  And good luck
[18:43] <gamerpro2000> Dang it man, I always send as soon as they leave :P .
[18:43] <gamerpro2000> lol
[18:43] <ale1983> ciaoooooooooooo
[18:43] <ale1983> !list
[18:43] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: The installer for ATI video drivers is terminal based, so you can wget it and install it
[18:44] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I am running the proprietary drivers at the moment. They work find (i dont need the audio). The problem is I am trying to get xorg.conf  to work with the proprietary drivers ... which I cant seem to do.
[18:44] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: is there a difference from using the terminal vs just selecting it through the gui?
[18:44] <RF14> how can i get ubuntu ?
[18:44] <zykotick9> RF14: www.ubuntu.com
[18:44] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: If you're using the proprietary drivers, you don't need to mess with XOrg.conf.  It generates one for you when you run the installed for it
[18:45] <gamerpro2000> What exactly is wrong that you need to edit the XOrg.conf
[18:46] <Kircle> Even when I put my ether cable in the laptop is still doesn't use it and access the Internet
[18:46] <Ivoz_> zykotick9: gamerpro2000: great success!
[18:46] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I am using a lcd monitor that is upside down (dont ask why) I used to run nvidia with the xorg.conf line "RandRrotation" "inverted" which set my screen at inverted perfectly. also allowed all the games that ran in ubuntu to be inverted as well.
[18:46] <erik__> goeiedag eeem
[18:46] <gamerpro2000> Kircle: What is the network card model:
[18:46] <Ivoz_> i guess this is how you learn to hate linux video drivers
[18:46] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Glad to hear it :)
[18:47] <oldIT78> Ivoz_: yep!
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> erik__  verkeerd kanaal, typ /j #ubuntu-nl
[18:47] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz: Be sure to thank zykotick9 for his co-assistance ;) .  Haha.
[18:47] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: if the proprietary drivers are creating a xorg.conf file ... it does not appear to be in /etc/X11/
[18:47] <Ivoz_> so are nvidia or ati any better than eachother for linux?
[18:47] <oldIT78> there are backups but they appear old.
[18:47] <Kircle> gamerpro2000 How do I find that out? It's broadcom BCM4313 for the wireless card
[18:48] <RF14> thnx
[18:48] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz_: Video drivers on Linux are a mess regardless sometimes.  Intel is the only one that really is stupid simple.
[18:48] <Ivoz_> gamerpro2000: zykotick9: thanks for all the log finding expertise :)
[18:48] <gamerpro2000> Kircle: dmesg is the easiest......I sound like a broken record cuz I've said that 10 times today so far, but it is.  Haha.
[18:49] <gamerpro2000> oldIt78: Did you actually run a text-based installer?  Or did you just install Ubuntu and it was working?
[18:49] <gamerpro2000> Also, oldIT78, what model do you have?
[18:49] <Ivoz_> oldIT78: you dont even have an xorg.conf?
[18:50] <gamerpro2000> Ivoz_: Generally, XOrg.conf isn't needed anymore
[18:50] <Ivoz_> oh...
[18:50] <gamerpro2000> We only use it when something breaks or when stupid installer scripts from ATI or NVidia makes them ;)
[18:50] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I have an ATI gigabyte 5750 silent cell. When i installed it ... I thought it would just work. But it did not boot to the login screen. I ran recovery and installed the proprietary drivers through system>admistration>additional drivers>
[18:50] <gamerpro2000> Because NVidia and ATI haven't come into the 21st Century of using XServer ;)
[18:51] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: One moment.....Lemme get you the latest from ATI
[18:51] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: no it does not appear to have created a xorg.conf file. there are 5 backups. but they all have nvidia stuff in them.
[18:51] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I can download them myself from the site.
[18:51] <oldIT78> if you think its worth it.
[18:51] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78, I would give it a shot.  The one in the repos is generally several versions behind
[18:52] <markKZ> hi, im using hebrew within vim, and it shows backwards (though its written fine, i.e. when viewed through firefox)
[18:52] <CharminTheMoose> I'm doing some debugging of the bootcd-i386/bootcd-mkinitramfs packages.. can udev and filesystems like /dev/pts and /dev/shm stop functioning properly due to doing mount --move, while it's still running?
[18:52] <markKZ> any ideas about this?
[18:52] <gamerpro2000> markKZ: backwards?  How?
[18:52] <MonkeyDust> gamerpro2000  hebrew is written from right to left
[18:52] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I know the ubuntu will attempt to read an xorg.conf file even while using the proprietary drivers .... I just dont know how to build the right xorg.conf file with randrrotate.
[18:53] <markKZ> yea, its RTL, but vim shows it from end to start
[18:53] <Ivoz_> markKZ: http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/rileft.html
[18:53] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: The ATI installer will build one automatically for you and replace whatever is there already.
[18:53] <markKZ> tonsofpcs its not what im after.
[18:53] <vite> how do I remove all ppas?
[18:53] <markKZ> i want to keep the left-to-write writing, i just need it to display hebrew RTL, not all of the text
[18:53] <gamerpro2000> MonkeyDust: Ah......So markKZ:, why is it being backwards bad?
[18:54] <markKZ> gamer1990 imagine "hello" written as "olleh"
[18:54] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: so you think that the older version of the ati prop files are not creating a xorg.conf file but the new one from the ati site will? thats on 11.04? correct?
[18:54] <xangua> vite: sudo ppa-purge ppaName
[18:54] <Kircle> gamerpro2000 what's the command to specifically find the network card?
[18:54] <gamer1990> the next one is highlighting the wrong person -.-
[18:54] <vite> hmm how do I list the ppas? lol
[18:55] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: The one from the Prop Drivers is probably the semi-open source driver for ATI.  As I was talking to zykotick9 earlier, there are two versions.  One community developed and one built by ATI
[18:55] <gamerpro2000> gamer1990 :) .  I'll change my nick if you change yours.  Haha.
[18:55] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: I see. so the one from the "additional drivers" gui window is the semi-proprietary one .... correct?
[18:56] <markKZ> gamer1990 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/34697189/Capture.PNG
[18:56] <gamerpro2000> oldIT78: Its the one the Ubuntu Community maintains, yes.  As well as the linux community in general.  The one from their site you have to download and manually run the installer script for.
[18:56] <zykotick9> oldIT78: "additional drivers" should be giving you the proprietary one actually.
[18:56] <gamerpro2000> markKZ: You're tagging the wrong person
[18:56] <markKZ> [20:52] <gamerpro2000> markKZ: backwards?  How?
[18:57] <gamerpro2000> zykotick9: Since when did it start doing that?  I thought it gave you the "radeon" package and the fglrx was the ATI made one?
[18:58] <Kircle> Guys any ideas why my broadcom BCM4313 wireless has stopped working since updating to 11.10
[18:58] <markKZ> well, anyone with some smart idea?
[18:58] <gamerpro2000> Kircle: dmesg, man
[18:58] <dhanu> hi all
[18:59] <gamer1990> gamerpro2000, the problem aren't our nicks, the problem ist they aren't able to hit the tab-button once more^^"
[18:59] <zykotick9> gamerpro2000: NOT installing drivers should give radeaon while "additional drivers" should give fglrx (i think, but i would never use ATI, so can't be sure)
[18:59] <level09> how do I kill some stuck upstart services ? kill doesn't seem to take effect
[18:59] <Kircle> gamerpro2000 so much text. cant find it
[19:00] <BarkingFish> level09: which kill signal are you using?
[19:00] <umashanthi> what's the mysql installation directory in ubuntu?
[19:00] <level09> umashanthi: I'm just using sudo kill pid1 pid2  ..
[19:00] <level09> oops sorry, that wa for BarkingFish
[19:01] <oldIT78> gamerpro2000: from my research zykotick9 is correct. the radeon driver seems to be the opensource driver while the fglrx seems to be the driver installed when using additional drivers.
[19:01] <umashanthi> level09: what?
[19:01] <gamer1990> Kircle use grep to sort out
[19:01] <zykotick9> umashanthi: you could try using "dpkg -S mysql-server" to see perhaps
[19:01] <BarkingFish> level09: you could try using a kill that will force it to quit, try sudo kill -11 followed by the process ID's you want to nail
[19:02] <dhanu> i am using ubuntu 11.10 server. configured squid with transprant with dhcp. required to all sites even torrents except e-mail sites and some office site and govt sites. how to configure the squid
[19:02] <level09> BarkingFish: is that the effect of "respawn" ? seems like upstart is trying to keep it alive
[19:02] <level09> let me try that, thanks
[19:02] <Kircle> gamer1990 I tried outputting to a file and searching using gedit for 'network' but only found was two entries for network manager
[19:02] <oldIT78> the radeon driver SHOULD support my card. but there is some error. the fglrx driver at least works.
[19:03] <CharminTheMoose> How can I get upstart to output all boot messages to console? By default it doesn't seem to.
[19:03] <BarkingFish> signal 11, level09 should be to make the process think it's had a segmentation fault - it should kill the process by lettinbg it b
[19:03] <zykotick9> BarkingFish: do you happen to know the difference between 11 and 9?  I've never seen 11 used before, and "man kill" telling  "SEGV      11   core" doesn't mean anything to me ;)
[19:03] <BarkingFish> *believe it''s crashed
[19:04] <umashanthi> zykotick9: I want to find the bin directory of mysql installation. Didn't get it from your command
[19:06] <oldIT78> Either way I am currently using "fglrx" proprietary driver from "additional driver" does anyone know if ubuntu will create a xorg.conf? If so how?
[19:06] <zykotick9> umashanthi: bin directory?  "whereis mysql" then?
[19:06] <glebihan> zykotick9, "man 7 signal" will give you more detailed informations
[19:06] <zykotick9> glebihan: thanks
[19:06] <glebihan> zykotick9, signal 11 is an internal that shouldn't be used with the kill command, which basically mean the program encountered a segmentation falut
[19:07] <umashanthi> zykotick9: none of the location "whereis mysql" have the bin dir
[19:07] <zykotick9> glebihan: i'd checked "man signal" but it wasn't helpful...
[19:07] <zykotick9> glebihan: i was surpised by someone suggesting -11 as i hadn't seen it before
[19:07] <glebihan> zykotick9, yes without the "7" arg, "man signal" refers to the C function signal
[19:08] <BarkingFish> glebihan: Well if I'm not supposed to use signal 11 with kill, that's the last time I listen to advice from people in here :)
[19:08] <glebihan> zykotick9, you were right to be surprised, you shouldn't have to use it
[19:08] <RBRIDDICK> hi! how can i make my Intel Core i7 sending HDMI Audio to my monitor?
[19:08] <BarkingFish> Cause it was someone in here who told me I could use it
[19:08] <CharminTheMoose> How can I get upstart to output all boot messages to console? By default it doesn't seem to.
[19:08] <zykotick9> glebihan: oh, I didn't
[19:09] <zykotick9> glebihan: it was suggested to someone else
[19:09] <umashanthi> zykotick9: I
[19:09] <glebihan> BarkingFish, it won't make any damage, it's just not a signal that should be sent externally
[19:09] <BarkingFish> glebihan: i gave the info to level09
[19:09] <dhanu> i am using ubuntu 11.10 server. configured squid with transprant with dhcp. required to all sites even torrents except e-mail sites and some office site and govt sites. how to configure the squid
[19:10] <umashanthi> zykotick9: I'm doing some installation and the step says "root directory of your mysql installation". It gives an example of "/usr/local/mysql/bin"
[19:10] <oldIT78> zykotick9: do you know if there is a command to get ubuntu to spit out a xorg.conf file?
[19:11] <irocksu> hi
[19:11] <zykotick9> oldIT78: there is infact, "Xorg --configure" i belive (xorg can't be running, and it might need sudo?)
[19:11] <irocksu> i was wondering what tool allows me to create a deb repository with multiple versions of the same package for the same architecture?
[19:12] <oldIT78> zykotick9: ... so i would have to leave X11 and go to a terminal only mode is that correct?
[19:12] <Guest90662> hello
[19:12] <irocksu> i tried reprepro. it archives the old packages, but does not create entries in the Packages.gz
[19:12] <zykotick9> oldIT78: yes, and it will tell you where it places the temporary xorg.conf.SOMETHING that you can copy to the correct location
[19:13] <oldIT78> zykotick9: interesting. i very very rarely ever use ubuntu without gui. so hmm. thank you for the information.
[19:14] <zykotick9> oldIT78: sorry it's "X -configure"
[19:15] <oldIT78> zykotick9: and that will spit out a xorg.conf file ... probably to /ext/X11/ yeah?
[19:16] <zykotick9> oldIT78: not in /etc/... somewhere else, but it will output where it places the file
[19:16] <javier_faj> Hi! I installed in "ubuntu software center" a program called MrBayes. It uses a text file (.nxs) which in windows version must be placed in the folder where MrBayes files are. How can I do that in ubuntu? Where are my Mr.Bayes files and folders? Where can I place my text file so it can be used by the program? Thanks for any suggestion!
[19:18] <zykotick9> javier_faj: you could check "dpkg -S mrbayes" to see where it installed files to perhaps?
[19:18] <pangolin> javier_faj: check for ~/.mrbayes , but i am really not sure because i never even heard of this program
[19:18] <oldIT78> zykotick9: and that works on 11.04 correct?
[19:18] <zykotick9> pangolin: i suggested that yesterday, as well as ~/.confg/
[19:19] <zykotick9> oldIT78: it should
[19:19] <Wargasm> zykotick9: would gnome-search-tool work for javier?
[19:19] <javier_faj> pangolin: I already checked there with no luck
[19:19] <zykotick9> Wargasm: i don't know, never used gnome-search-tool before
[19:19] <umashanthi> zykotick9: any idea?
[19:19] <zykotick9> umashanthi: no sorry.  good luck.
[19:20] <Wargasm> javier_faj: in terminal try typing gnome-search-tool
[19:21] <Wargasm> I'm quite new to ubuntu but I slowly am finding my way around
[19:21] <rjraaz> how to install ubuntu on vbox
[19:21] <oldIT78> zykotick9: thanks for your help!
[19:22] <zykotick9> oldIT78: glad to help.  you get an xorg.conf now?
[19:23] <Stava> Is it just me, or is ubuntu one upload quite slow? How do I view the transfer/sync speed? Is the speed improved with the paid service?
[19:24] <oldIT78> zykotick9: no im off to shut down X11 ... I mean, I basically have to log off to do so, isnt there a option to log in with terminal only from the login screen? ... or that is the only easiest way to do so.
[19:25] <zykotick9> oldIT78: shutting down your DM would be easiest.  you use GDM or LightDM?
[19:25] <oldIT78> zykotick9: gdm
[19:25] <zykotick9> oldIT78: "sudo service gdm stop" will log you off and stop xorg
[19:26] <oldIT78> zykotick9: then i have to log on through terminal which i will already be at. correct?  is sudo serivce gdm start ... the correct start command?
[19:26] <anthrax2010> the first two applications in the Application Menü are "Webbrowser" and  "Email Client" but i cant remove with the menue edition. Whats wrong?
[19:26] <syddraf_> I am typing in Japanese but the characters displayed are incorrect. Is there another package I need to install to get the correct characters?
[19:27] <hh> can i initiate a full web install from an 11.whatever disk?
[19:27] <zykotick9> oldIT78: correct, or reboot.  don't forget to move the generated xorg.conf.SOMETHING file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[19:28] <oldIT78> zykotick9: ill record where it drops the xorg.conf file. thanks again!
[19:30] <Irendil> Hello, my laptop has 2 gpus, an a switch (stamina-speed) allows to use one or the other. how to handle this with ubuntu?
[19:30] <gdoteof> i followed http://digitizor.com/2010/02/03/how-to-install-an-offline-dictionary-in-ubuntu-2/ but dictionary does not seem to be a program anymore?
[19:30] <gdoteof> i don't see how to load the dicitonary
[19:30] <trism> syddraf_: incorrect in what way, do you have an example?
[19:30] <dwarder> how do i enter a path in my file browser?
[19:31] <syddraf_> trism: This website described the problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/45977/some-applications-use-archaic-character-instead-of-modern-japanese-one
[19:31] <hh> does anyone know if there is a way to initiate a full web install from a current disk? the disk is corrupt, but still boots... Thanks in advance!
[19:31] <dhanu> i am using ubuntu 11.10 server. configured squid with transprant with dhcp. required to all sites even torrents except e-mail sites and some office site and govt sites. how to configure
[19:31] <willdog> Bonjour =)
[19:31] <xens> salut
[19:32] <anthrax2010> Hello :-)
[19:32] <willdog> je suis nouveau sur ubuntu je peux vous poser 2/3 questions ^"
[19:32] <glebihan> !fr | willdog
[19:32] <syddraf_> trism: It's a problem I've had an every Ubuntu install to date. It works fine in Linux Mint, though.
[19:33] <Mediii1> hi there
[19:33] <anthrax2010> Hello, i need help with the Menueditor (Xubuntu). I cant delete the first two entries.
[19:34] <syddraf_> trism: I found a solution http://pastebin.com/bMa2bhr1, although these fonts are absolutely terrible.
[19:35] <hh> does anyone know if there is a way to initiate a full web install from a current disk? the disk is corrupt, but still boots... Thanks in advance!
[19:35] <hh> *net install
[19:36] <owenll> anthrax2010: #xubuntu or http://en.kioskea.net/faq/3499-xubuntu-modifying-the-applications-menu
[19:38] <gdoteof> sorry if someone answered, i got dq'd.  how do i use the dictionary (or install it if ineed to) that coincides with this tut http://digitizor.com/2010/02/03/how-to-install-an-offline-dictionary-in-ubuntu-2/
[19:38] <gdoteof> i installed dictionaryreader.app but that just polls dict.org it seems
[19:39] <trism> syddraf_: hadn't noticed that, but it is the same here, but I just remembered I forgot to install the ttf-ipafont since installing oneiric, and I get the other character with those fonts (which I generally prefer)
[19:42] <anthrax2010> owenll: thanks, thats work. Great. But why i dont the some entries in the graphical menue editor?
[19:42] <anthrax2010> "don't see"
[19:43] <hh> does anyone know if there is a way to initiate a full web install from a current disk? the disk is corrupt, but still boots... Thanks in advance!
[19:44] <van> just installed Lubuntu and it is still  randomly logs me out - closes all apps and go back to log in screen. any idea whats the problem?
[19:44] <JediMaster> does anyone know why a VM (11.10) on a hyper-v host wouldn't work with aliased eth0:0 etc. network interfaces using the hv-netvsc module? But when using the "legacy" network adaptor in hyper-v it does work (but then gets massive 5 second lag to everything)
[19:45] <ljsoftnet> is there a task manager like in ubuntu 11.10?
[19:45] <JediMaster> I have the same /etc/network/interfaces setup, it works on the legacy network adatpor, but not the normal one
[19:45] <iceroot> ljsoftnet: for what?
[19:45] <ljsoftnet> i want to see the cpu graph usage
[19:46] <JediMaster> but the normal one doesn't give me the 5000ms pings
[19:46] <MonkeyDust> ljsoftnet  system monitor
[19:46] <anthrax2010> ljsoftnet: install Sceenlets.
[19:46] <zykotick9> ljsoftnet: top in terminal show some info (htop is cooler though)
[19:46] <ljsoftnet> MonkeyDust thank you
[19:47] <sskalnik> Backports entry in sources.list is just "deb http://apt:9999/ubuntu/ oneiric-backports", correct?
[19:48] <syddraf_> trism: It seems to be an Ubuntu problem I wish they'd fix. Those glyphs I ONLY see when it has this error.
[19:48] <zykotick9> hh: what you are descibing would probably require using debootstrap (more effort then it's worth i imagine), why not just use cd/usb to reinstall?
[19:48] <sskalnik> I keep getting this after adding backports: "E: Malformed line 12 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)"
[19:48] <LjL> sskalnik: uh that doesn't sound very correct unless you have a local mirror perhaps
[19:48] <sskalnik> LjL:  yeah, local mirror in there
[19:49] <LjL> sskalnik: ah ok. well you still need to specify which repositories you want. my line is like deb http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[19:49] <sskalnik> LjL:  Ahhhh okay
[19:50] <sskalnik> LjL:  That was it; thanks!
[19:52] <oldIT781> zykotick9: ok so when i run sudo service gdm stop ... my system seems to crash .. it does not bring me to a command prompt.
[19:52] <sskalnik> What's the aptitude equivalent of  "dist-upgrade"? Full?
[19:52] <llutz> sskalnik: full-upgrade, yes
[19:52] <sskalnik> Cool, thanks
[19:52] <LjL> oldIT781: tried hitting ctrl+alt+f1 after doing that?
[19:53] <zykotick9> oldIT781: are you sure you are using gdm?
[19:54] <oldIT781> zykotick9: yeah i am sure. I'm just using stock ubuntu 11.04. I am using ubuntu classic. not unity.
[19:54] <zykotick9> oldIT781: oh, but it does stop it right?  so you are using gdm.
[19:54] <hh> does anyone know if there is a way to initiate a full web install from a current disk? the disk is corrupt, but still boots... Thanks in advance!
[19:54] <zykotick9> oldIT781: can you get to ctrl+alt+f1 (or just alt+f1 perhaps)?
[19:54] <RambJoe> anyone here have an x-fi titanium hd?
[19:54] <oldIT781> zykotick9: yes it attempts to shut down. after I have done the shutdown of gnome or right now?
[19:54] <h00k> hh: if it still boots, there may be other issues, it's probably not a good idea to run an install from it :(
[19:55] <benbloom__> I just bought a WD Elements (3G) external USB2 HD. for some reason, I'm having trouble formatting it with partition manager. help??
[19:55] <Essobi> Anyone having a problem in Unity with the latest Precise updates?
[19:55] <iceroot> Essobi: #ubuntu+1
[19:55] <iceroot> !details | benbloom__
[19:55] <RBRIDDICK> oops - it was a pulseaudio problem... it didnt offer all profiles, that my hardware has...
[19:55] <iceroot> !anyone | RambJoe
[19:55] <zykotick9> oldIT781: try now first with ctrl+alt+f1 do you get a login prompt?
[19:55] <RBRIDDICK> if fixed it quick and dirty... :-)
[19:56] <RBRIDDICK> bye
[19:56] <hh> h00k: thanks, it's just that this is the only disk i have left, with no CD writer until monday. I have network access but it has to support 802.1x
[19:56] <Essobi> iceroot: Are you asking me to join that chan?
[19:56] <h00k> hh: do you have a USB drive?
[19:56] <iceroot> Essobi: yes
[19:56] <h00k> Essobi: Pangolin support and conversation takes place in #ubuntu+1
[19:56] <iceroot> Essobi: 12.04 is alpha and only supported in #ubuntu+1
[19:56] <zykotick9> oldIT781: SHOULD have mentioned alt+f7 (or f8) to get back
[19:57] <benbloom__> iceroot: partition manager shows the partition type as 'unknown' after i formatted it ext4
[19:57] <h00k> hh: If that's your *only* option, I suppose keep checking in here, maybe someone can help
[19:57] <ceed^> Hi, with the gnome-volume-control.pulse you can get the volume up beyond 100% (to 150%). Why not with other volume controls, and why does it drop to below 100% as soon as you use the volume control in the notification area?
[19:57] <iceroot> benbloom__: you used gparted? the partition was not mounted while doing it?
[19:57] <benbloom__> iceroot: partition manager shows success when formatting as ext4.
[19:57] <Essobi> iceroot: roger that
[19:57] <hh> thanks, is it ok just to keep posting my origonal question every halfd hour or so?
[19:58] <benbloom__> i use kde partition manager, and yes, it was unmounted
[19:58] <m4k> How to connect mobile via bluetooth using terminal without gui
[19:58] <LjL> hh: yes
[19:59] <zykotick9> m4k: network-manager does have a cli interface (i've never used it mind you)
[19:59] <henba> bonsoir, quelqu'un pourait m'aider svp
[19:59] <zykotick9> !fr | henba
[19:59] <m4k> How use
[20:00] <benbloom__> iceroot: I am trying to partition again. I will pastebin the output. not too familiar with disk formatting tools (outside of the gui)
[20:00] <ssta> m4k: hcitool maybe?
[20:01] <m4k> Yeh,but can't pair with device
[20:03] <Mindkontrol> guys, need help
[20:03] <oldIT781> zykotick9: well I got something! It gave me a couple failures. so I dont really know what happen but it seemed to work.
[20:03] <m4k> Heloo....
[20:04] <Mindkontrol> tried to setup my box to be static ip from router, and i could get online to browse, but it wouldnt let me access router page anymore, and couldnt connect to irc via torsocks
[20:04] <Mindkontrol> what am i missing?
[20:04] <zykotick9> oldIT781: nice!
[20:05] <h00k> Mindkontrol: do you have your gateway probably set? and subnet?
[20:05] <RyuGuns> Hey guys, I've just tried to get rid of KDE-plasma, so I tried "apt-get autoremove plasma-desktop", but it didn't get rid of all the KDE applications that came with it, is there a way to do that?
[20:05] <oldIT781> so why does ubuntu give me an error when I run $sudo service gdm stop? but it works when i use that shortcut keyboard command?
[20:05] <Mindkontrol> h00k: I set address, netmask, and gateway
[20:06] <h00k> Mindkontrol: can you ping your router/gateway?
[20:06] <vite> is there a way to increase the swap space on ubuntu server?
[20:06] <ssta> vite: swapon <some partition>
[20:06] <ssta> vite: or you can make a swap file
[20:07] <Mindkontrol> h00k: http://pastebin.com/w94B7gh1
[20:07] <vite> ssta: for ram purposes
[20:07] <Irendil> Hello, my laptop has 2 gpus, an a switch (stamina-speed) allows to use one or the other. how to handle this with ubuntu?
[20:07] <Mindkontrol> h00k: nah, dont think i could
[20:08] <ssta> vite: yeah...
[20:08] <Mindkontrol> i went back to my default settings to get on here
[20:08] <vite> can I use a usb?
[20:08] <ssta> vite: sure.  A\ny disk at all will work
[20:09] <ssta> vite: just be sure it's there.  What happens if you unplug a drive while it's actring as swap may not be pleasant
[20:09] <h00k> Mindkontrol: do sudo mv /etc/network/interfacesstatic /etc/network/interfaces - you want your /etc/network/interfaces to say what  /etc/network/interfacesstatic says
[20:10] <vite> might be better just to increase the current swap size.
[20:10] <ssta> vite: if you have the space to, yes
[20:10] <oldIT781> zykotick9: can you take a look at this xorg.conf and see if its an error or actually looks somewhat right? http://paste.ubuntu.com/809999/
[20:10] <vite> yeah about 10 gigs worth lol
[20:10] <Mindkontrol> h00k: Yeah, that is what i had setup, but once it was set, i could not access router page, nor would it let me on irc, at least not through torsocks
[20:10] <Irendil> other question, i need a program. how to know what package includes it?
[20:11] <Irendil> for instance, i need "pngtopnm"
[20:11] <h00k> Mindkontrol: set it up that way and first try to ping the router/gateway
[20:11] <Mindkontrol> h00k: I just dont get why it would stop me from getting to router
[20:11] <h00k> Mindkontrol: be sure you can even talk to your router first
[20:12] <Mindkontrol> ok, be right back
[20:12] <rondogplaya> HI i have a question, i used wubi.exe to install Ubuntu 11.10 on my PC and whern i restart no options pop up it just goes straight to windows xp and suggestions?
[20:12] <benbloom__> iceroot: I'm gonna reboot. will you look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/809992/ to see if there's something going wrong with the formatting? sorry it's in html. that's the way partition manager outputs
[20:13] <benbloom__> sorry to be a pain. I just need to know if i should send this drive back or not
[20:13] <benbloom__> thanks
[20:13] <rondogplaya> HI i have a question, i used wubi.exe to install Ubuntu 11.10 on my PC and whern i restart no options pop up it just goes straight to windows xp and suggestions?
[20:14] <Irendil> rondogplaya, did you really install, not just "try ubuntu"?
[20:14] <OerHeks> Irendil, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/oneiric/man1/netpbm.1.html
[20:14] <rondogplaya> ya i installed it
[20:15] <Irendil> OerHeks, thanks. is there a command to search for packages that have a certain file?
[20:15] <OerHeks> Irendil, sorry, wrong url > http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/oneiric/man1/pngtopnm.1.html
[20:15] <rondogplaya> On top of that my C drive is backwards with F lol
[20:16] <rondogplaya> System files on F: and C: is secondary HDD Lol
[20:16] <oldIT781> if i want to edit a xorg.conf file to just do ONE thing "randrrotat" "inverted" what would be the least I could put on a xorg.conf file to do so?
[20:16] <RyuGuns> Hey guys, I've just tried to get rid of KDE-plasma, so I tried "apt-get autoremove plasma-desktop", but it didn't get rid of all the KDE applications that came with it, is there a way to do that?
[20:16] <OerHeks> Irendil, ah like dpkg-deb -I pngtopnm
[20:17] <Lekensteyn> 'ello, is there a user here with a Nvidia Optimus laptop?
[20:17] <Irendil> OerHeks, thanks for the help
[20:17] <hh> thanks, is it ok just to keep posting my origonal question every halfd hour or so?
[20:17] <hh> opps
[20:17] <hh> does anyone know if there is a way to initiate a full web install from a current disk? the disk is corrupt, but still boots... Thanks in advance!
[20:17] <rondogplaya> Irendil, u got any suggestions?
[20:18] <Irendil> rondogplaya, try reinstalling grub?
[20:18] <Irendil> don't know...
[20:18] <Irendil> not sure if there is an easy way to do that with the ubuntu install cd
[20:18] <Jordan_U> hh: Corrupt how? And do you mean "netinstall"?
[20:18] <h00k> hh: yep, you're doing fine :)
[20:19] <rondogplaya> Irendil, whats grub?
[20:19] <pauser> hi ! Can someone help me find the driver for fujitsu esprimo mobile v6535 ?
[20:19] <rondogplaya> sorry im new to ubuntu lol
[20:19] <coreGrl> hi
[20:19] <ssta> hh: umm, you could, but you'd have to bypass the standard installer, go advanced, and spend much of the time in the console between steps.  Be MUCH easier to just use a CD
[20:19] <Irendil> rondogplaya, it's the program that should let you choose between linux and windows at boot
[20:19] <Barbariandude> !grub | rondogplaya
[20:20] <Jordan_U> rondogplaya: I would recommend not installing via wubi.
[20:20] <coreGrl> I've missed up my grub and I can't boot anymore, I'm now on live cd, how can I recover grub? (11.10 is my ubuntu)
[20:20] <Mindkontrol> h00k: so, now i am even more confused, changed my interface, and i still pulled .104 for my ip
[20:20] <Barbariandude> installing via wubi means it's formatted in NTFS, ext4 is much better
[20:20] <Irendil> coreGrl, somebody just answered before you asked the question
[20:20] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: What did you do to mess up your grub and what happens when you try to boot?
[20:21] <h00k> Mindkontrol: so...are you still using nm-applet to handle your network?
[20:21] <h00k> Mindkontrol: are you in a desktop environment like gnome?
[20:21] <Mindkontrol> h00k: not sure, never heard of it
[20:21] <rondogplaya> Irendil, Barbariandude, ubottu, Jordan_U, thank you guys ill look into it :)
[20:21] <Mindkontrol> I running newest version of ubuntu, but use terminal mostly
[20:21] <h00k> Mindkontrol: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html that may help
[20:21] <Jordan_U> rondogplaya: You do *NOT* want to re-install grub.
[20:22] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, I had a program to fix grub automatically, lemme find it again
[20:22] <Mindkontrol> h00k: thanks, ill read thru that
[20:22] <rondogplaya> Jordan_U, why?
[20:22] <oldIT781> does randrrotation work with proprietary ATi drivers?
[20:22] <Pseudoephedrine> Is KDE Wallet secure and safe to use??
[20:23] <ssta> Pseudoephedrine: for what?
[20:23] <Jordan_U> rondogplaya: Because the way that grub is installed is different with Wubi that with a normal install. I would recommend "uninstalling" wubi and doing a normal dual boot installation.
[20:23] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, open up a terminal and type in these commands: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair && sudo apt-get update
[20:23] <Barbariandude> sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair
[20:23] <Mindkontrol> h00k: be back
[20:23] <Pseudoephedrine> ssta: storing any passwords.
[20:23] <coreGrl> well I choosed for mistake the windows repair choice in grub.. the partitions are ok, I can mount them but I can't repair grub
[20:23] <ssta> Pseudoephedrine: it's secure and safe enough for mosty things
[20:23] <pauser> is there any wlan driver for fujitsu esprimo mobile v6535, i can not find it on the official page ??
[20:23] <ssta> depends how paranoid you want to be
[20:24] <Pseudoephedrine> ssta: pretty paranoid ;p
[20:24] <coreGrl> Barbariandude: can put this boot repair utiliti in the official live? :)
[20:25] <Barbariandude> yup
[20:25] <pauser> does someone know about my driver anything ?
[20:25] <coreGrl> Barbariandude: I'mean in 12.04
[20:25] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: Before you run boot repair, what happens when you try to boot currently?
[20:25] <coreGrl> 'cause not always you'll have internet connection
[20:25] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, I don't know for a fact, but I'm fairly confident it should work in 12.04
[20:25] <rondogplaya> Normally i would Dual Boot but when i had my Win7 Disc i dlownloaded it wouldnt read it nor the Win XP lol and i changd the boot sequence to CD, HDD
[20:25] <ssta> Pseudoephedrine: it's as secure as you make your machine.  If someone gets the file, they can break into it.  on the other hand, it's much more secure than typing all your passwords into a text file.  Nothing is 100% secure
[20:26] <Mindkontrol> h00k: what is loopback?
[20:26] <coreGrl> Barbariandude: it will be included by default?
[20:26] <Mindkontrol> h00k: my setup is using lo instead eth0
[20:26] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, What do you mean?
[20:27] <coreGrl> Jordan_U: as I said I choose wrongly the windows repair option (on a notebook)
[20:27] <coreGrl> Barbariandude: I mean that will be usefull to have this program directly in the official ubuntu iso
[20:28] <h00k> Mindkontrol: it's a lot to explain in here, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loopback does a decent job
[20:28] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: That doesn't answer my question. My question is what happens when you try to boot currently?
[20:28] <tdn> How do I play video without X? I thought I could to mplayer video.avi  -fb /dev/fb0, however /dev/fb0 does not exist on a deafult Ubuntu Server 11.10? What to do?
[20:28] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, Ah. No idea why it isn't in there, but it isn't, you need to add the PPA and install it yourself.
[20:28] <coreGrl> ah sorry Jordan_U it says unknown file system and it presents a grub-repair (?) prompt
[20:29] <Mindkontrol> h00k: Well, im just confused, as i had setup my interfaces with eth0 but it didnt work. only when i used lo did it work. and this time, interfaces isnt doing anythying. still pulling dhcp ip from router
[20:29] <Barbariandude> coreGrl, For more info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[20:29] <coreGrl> I'm running boot repair but it's 2 minuts that works on dpkg-configure -a sda
[20:29] <iToast> Ubuntu installer is really pissing me off right now.
[20:29] <coreGrl> sda6
[20:29] <iToast> I've used YUMI Unetbooting and manually made my usb bootable.
[20:30] <iToast> Its trying to read from a NON EXSISTANT cd rom
[20:30] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: grub rescue I assume you mean. That sounds like your Ubuntu partition has been deleted. Boot Repair can't help if that is the case.
[20:30] <rondogplaya> Barbariandude, Normally i would Dual Boot but when i had my Win7 Disc i dlownloaded it wouldnt read it nor the Win XP lol and i changd the boot sequence to CD, HDD, still not loaded do u know?
[20:30] <iToast> I cant install ubuntu becuase it REFUSES to understand the lack of a cdrom.
[20:30] <iToast> I don't have one. nor do i have a cd / dvd!
[20:30] <coreGrl> Jordan_U: I don't think so.. I can mount it
[20:31] <Barbariandude> rondogplaya, depends on your BIOS. Some need you to switch a setting to allow it to use non-HDD stuff. Do ubuntu/other linux OSes work via CD?
[20:31] <Mindkontrol> iToast: you shouldnt need a cd rom, i installed on my netbook with just a bootable usb
[20:31] <iToast> Mindkontrol, Thats my point
[20:31] <iToast> The installer is so broken it detects a cd rom thats not there.
[20:31] <iToast> its forcing me to mount it or it refuses to install
[20:32] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: OK, then maybe it's simply that partition numbering has changed. Boot repair might fix this by re-running grub-install, but I am personally against such utilities that don't tell you what they're going to do.
[20:32] <h00k> iToast: YUMI isn't unetbootin, they're different things.
[20:32] <zykotick9> tdn: "mplayer -vo help" try "mplayer -vo fbdev foo"
[20:32] <iToast> h00k, Im not stupid.
[20:32] <iToast> I said I used BOTH
[20:32] <iToast> I tried YUMI
[20:32] <ssta> when you install from USB, as far as the installer is concerned, the usb drive is a CD
[20:32] <Mindkontrol> you doing seomthing wrong
[20:32] <h00k> iToast: relax. I'm trying to help.
[20:32] <iToast> ssta, Its not working
[20:32] <iToast> This is the 20'th time now
[20:32] <coreGrl> Jordan_U: grub-install from chroot?
[20:32] <Mindkontrol> i used unetbootin and it worked fine
[20:32] <rondogplaya> Barbariandude, i havent burnt them to a disc in a while since b4 i had to redo windows yesterday
[20:32] <beaglebreath> good morning all.  I want to screen to revert to the layout defined in my .screenrc when I reconnect.  how do I recoonect and have my window layout restored?
[20:32] <Mindkontrol> get a different image
[20:32] <hkais> hello all
[20:33] <iToast> First attempt ubuntu decided that it doesn't have rights to write to the mbr
[20:33] <hkais> my xserver eats my cpu
[20:33] <iToast> That was only for grub
[20:33] <Wargasm> I forgot what I used
[20:33] <h00k> iToast: did you verify your ISO is okay?
[20:33] <hkais> is there a fix to reduce the cpu usage of the xserveer?
[20:33] <Jordan_U> iToast: I think you're just being confused by an error message. LiveUSBs mount to /cdrom/ even if the device that's being mounted there is not a CD.
[20:33] <iToast> h00k, yes
[20:33] <coreGrl> can I recovery mbr?
[20:33] <iToast> Jordan_U, I'l restart the installer and see if it works
[20:33] <Barbariandude> rondogplaya, well, if both of the 2 you tried aren't working, it might even be the CD drive thats not working
[20:34] <Mindkontrol> h00k: do i need to be using lo or can i tell it just use eth0?
[20:34] <Jordan_U> iToast: I'm not claiming that it will work, only that your assesment of the problem is likely incorrect. My guess is that the kernel isn't able to access your USB drive for some reason.
[20:34] <rondogplaya> Barbariandude, the dvd drives work cause i burn win 7 to a disc and they load the driver disc i have for wifi usb card thing in windows OS .
[20:35] <Mindkontrol> can you boot into livecd mode?
[20:35] <Jordan_U> coreGrl: Can you use the "Create Bootinfo summary" option and use http://pastebin.ubuntu.com to post a link to it?
[20:36] <h00k> Mindkontrol: I'm pretty sure you want to use eth0, your ethernet card
[20:36] <Pseudoephedrine> Hmm, i changed the speed of my mouse the other day, and the speed did change, but, everytime i open up system settings the mouse speed chages back to default, but then if i close the system settings window it goes back to normal.. is this normal? doesn't seem right to me
[20:37] <Pseudoephedrine> normal = the way i set it
[20:37] <iceroot> Pseudoephedrine: sounds like a bug would be great if you open a bug about that
[20:37] <iToast> Jordan_U, Tried mounting the cdrom.
[20:37] <iceroot> !bug | Pseudoephedrine
[20:37] <iToast> Mounting the cdrom fails
[20:37] <iToast> -_-
[20:37] <iToast> ubutnu continues to fail to install.
[20:38] <Pseudoephedrine> iceroot: no prob, thanks
[20:38] <iToast> When it installs, it either installs the bootloader wrong or it doesnt isntall one at all
[20:38] <iToast> Install grub? os not found or hanging at booting.
[20:38] <rondogplaya> I'm just going to uninstall Ubuntu -__- and forget about it, aparently im not meant to have linux haha
[20:38] <iToast> Install lilo? kernel panic.
[20:39] <Jordan_U> iToast: Do you want to work on the LiveUSB booting problem or the grub problem? Let's stick to one or the other for now.
[20:39] <akshaysulakhe> Hello,i am using a desktop,motherboard is Asus p8p67 pro rev 3.0..I want to boot ubuntu via pendrive as i dont have dvd drive. I tried it with both Unetbootin and universal-usb installer,it doesnt work,it shows a cursor and waits there for hours. what shall i do.? I have done this many times before on other hardware,so i know the steps. Kindly let me know. Thanks. :-)
[20:39] <iToast> Jordan_U, The grub problem is what forced me to do a reinstall
[20:39] <iToast> I tried to use "rescue"
[20:39] <iToast> IT couldn't write to the mbr
[20:40] <Jordan_U> iToast: Can you boot any GNU/Linux on this machine (to run boot info script from)?
[20:40] <rondogplaya> Ok thank you guys that tried helping me have a nice day. :)
[20:40] <Wargasm> rondogplaya: I thought that myself when my backlight wasn't lighting up... after 3 months of going back and forth I finally fixed it... just a little bit of work and now I'm permanently using linux
[20:40] <iToast> Jordan_U, None right now
[20:40] <hkais> iToast: can you boot ubuntu from live cd in the same version as installed?
[20:40] <iToast> Accidently removed arch linux from the internal 1gb
[20:40] <Jordan_U> iToast: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[20:40] <iToast> hkais, Yes
[20:40] <iToast> Its not installing.
[20:41] <hkais> boot it
[20:41] <tdn> zykotick9, -fbdev does not work. Does not chance mode: no video, nor audio.
[20:41] <hkais> you can fix the grub with the live cd
[20:41] <rondogplaya> Wargasm, WIll linux load windows files, cause i got a game i play and now its not even working in windows since reinstall. -.-
[20:41] <iToast> Jordan_U, Internal 2gb of storage + 160gb ehdd boot drive
[20:41] <Mad_Clog> I am suddenly unable to boot into ubuntu, could anyone please have a look? screenshots of gparted posted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1911856
[20:41] <Jordan_U> iToast: I just asked if you could boot any GNU/Linux. That includes LiveCD/USBs. Can you boot any LiveCD/USB currently?
[20:42] <Wargasm> rondogplaya: you can try with WINE... but I'm no expert
[20:42] <Pseudoephedrine> now i cant click on dashboard to open it ;/
[20:42] <iToast> Jordan_U, Yes, only ubuntu is failing to install
[20:42] <iceroot> !appdb | rondogplaya
[20:42] <Jordan_U> iToast: What version of Ubuntu? Are you getting an error message during install?
[20:43] <iToast> Jordan_U, 10.4.3 amd64 server install iso, it can't mount the cdrom.
[20:43] <Wargasm> rondogplaya: you can almost do anything with linux, thats the fun of it
[20:43] <rondogplaya> Wargasm, iceroot, ubottu, Thanks

[20:44] <paddysteed_> Hya everybody, lock your screens with ctrl-alt-l, for those of you who don't know this requires you to enter your password to get back to your desktop. Now press ctrl-alt-multiply, multiply as in the asterix above the numpad, volia.
[20:45] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: ubuntu only system??
[20:45] <iToast> paddysteed_, what?
[20:45] <paddysteed_> iToast, do it
[20:45] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: yes
[20:45] <iToast> paddysteed_, My main os is windows 7
[20:45] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: what hardware?
[20:45] <Jordan_U> iToast: If you use the Ubuntu netinstall ("minimal") installer it should work around this problem.
[20:45] <iToast> Only my server runs ubutnu and my netbook runs a ubutnu dirivative
[20:45] <paddysteed_> iToast, well then this wont work
[20:45] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: installed about a week ago, worked fine uptill today
[20:45] <iToast> paddysteed_, What does it do?
[20:46] <paddysteed_> iToast, it circumvents the lock screen
[20:46] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: intel i5 2500K, 8GB, Crucial M4 64GB SSD
[20:46] <iToast> paddysteed_, Thats a huge security flaw.

[20:47] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: recent updated/upgraded kernel or anything like that??
[20:47] <Jordan_U> iToast: This isn't the place.
[20:47] <rondogplaya> gah
[20:47] <iToast> Jordan_U, ...

[20:49] <oldIT781> zykotick9: do you think its worth installing the latest Ati drivers?
[20:49] <iToast> Your calling linux a easy hack... in the wrong channel...
[20:49] <Myrtti> can we move back to support issues?
[20:49] <akshaysulakhe> hello guys.if u have some time,can u help me plz
[20:49] <hkais> how can I fix the high cpu usage of xorg on 11.10?
[20:49] <akshaysulakhe> instead of hacking issues..no offense
[20:49] <akshaysulakhe> Hello, I am trying to boot ubuntu for installation via a usb on Motherboard Asus p8p67 pro rev.3.0. It doesnt boot. It just stops with a blinking cursor. What shall I do. Kindly let me know. Thanks :-)
[20:50] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: you've indicated no changes to hardware or the OS which would cause the break.  I am officially mystified - again.  Sorry I couldn't help more.  FWIW, I would back up essential data and reinstall from a CDROM if possible.
[20:50] <rondogplaya> well u said something about sercurity low lol
[20:50] <iToast> weres the ubuntu netinstall
[20:50] <iToast> for server 10.4
[20:50] <Myrtti> actually the security flaw that paddysteed_ posted doesn't exist in any version of Ubuntu because no version of Ubuntu ships with the affected version of xorg-server. So moving on.
[20:50] <iToast> Myrtti, he installed it
[20:50] <bullgard6> Why does Ubuntu not provide the sid DEB package  »mediainfo«  What is the reason?
[20:51] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: how do i backup the data when i can't boot into the system? can't seem to be able to mount the drive either
[20:51] <rondogplaya> Brb
[20:51] <Myrtti> bullgard6: care rephrasing that?
[20:51] <xanscale> how i can start ubuntu install using safe graphics mode???
[20:51] <Jordan_U> !nomodeset | xanscale
[20:51] <iToast> Weres the ubutn unetinstall for server
[20:51] <guntbert> akshaysulakhe: did you successfully  boot any usb?
[20:51] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: live boot from cd/usb, go to /home and save your data.  Then reinstall.
[20:52] <oldIT781> anyone think its worth moving from the proprietary ATI drivers to the latest proprietary ati drivers from Ati's site?
[20:52] <Myrtti> oldIT781: if it works, don't change it
[20:52] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: i currently am on a live install, home folder is the home folder of the live install (USB drive)
[20:52] <zykotick9> oldIT781: actually I believe it's a better idea to stick with Ubuntu's provided ATI driver, but that's just me.  Many will say "go with latest" ;)
[20:52] <bullgard6> Myrtti: Debian Sid provides a DEB program package »mediainfo«. Why does Ubuntu not provide this package too?
[20:53] <iToast> ..
[20:53] <MonkeyDust> bullgard6  debian is not ubuntu
[20:53] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: sudo mount /dev/sda2 /fix --> mount: special device /dev/sda2 does not exist
[20:53] <oldIT781> Myrtti: its not working. I am running inverted. but in some of the games instead of actually running inverted like they should they are running correct side up.
[20:53] <Myrtti> bullgard6: file a request to include it. I don't have a chrystal ball so I'd know why it's not in the repos
[20:53] <hkais> no hints how to fix the high cpu usage of xorg?
[20:53] <bullgard6> Myrtti: Ok. Thank you.
[20:54] <Myrtti> bullgard6: if you mean the app called mediainfo, it's included in a package called "dvd+rw-tools"
[20:54] <Myrtti> no, wait
[20:54] <oldIT781> zykotick9: i just want everything inverted. sighs. seems like its a lot to ask for.
[20:54] <styelz> Mad_Clog: type sudo blkid
[20:54] <Myrtti> that was a wrong command... let me have another look
[20:55] <acerimmer> Mad_Clog: sorry, whatever went wrong is beyond my level.  Please ask the channel again.

[20:56] <iToast> Wargasm, no, i cant find netinstall -_-
[20:56] <Myrtti> bullgard6: er, I can't see a package named "mediainfo" in debian either
[20:56] <Mad_Clog> acerimmer: thanks for trying though
[20:56] <Myrtti> bullgard6: it's only just made its way to unstable
[20:56] <hkais> applesource: you need a http proxy for downloads?
[20:56] <iToast> i need a netinstall ubutnu amd64
[20:56] <Myrtti> bullgard6: that may just be the reason it's not in Ubuntu yet
[20:57] <Wargasm> iToast you're probably more savy than me so I'm not going to bother telling you what I did
[20:57] <iToast> Wargasm, what did you do?
[20:57] <Wargasm> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[20:57] <Wargasm> iToast I did exactly what that said

[20:59] <zykotick9> iToast: mini is the net install.  what do YOU want?
[20:59] <rondogplaya> 1 Quick Question before i go whats the diff in latest build and long term
[21:00] <iToast> zykotick9, yes for server 10.4 amd64
[21:00] <zykotick9> iToast: oh man... i'm not gonna both explaining that mini could be server or desktop...
[21:00] <iToast> rondogplaya, more kernel panics while booting
[21:01] <iToast> Fights you over your mbr being rw
[21:01] <Mad_Clog> styelz: any thoughts on that or should i ask the channel again?
[21:01] <rondogplaya> iToast, ok is there a site i can learn more about ubuntu/linux stuff?
[21:01] <iToast> help.ubuntu.com
[21:02] <iToast> rondogplaya, Stick with 10.*
[21:02] <rondogplaya> thanks :)
[21:02] <iToast> updating to 11.* isn't worth it unless you're using a laptop
[21:02] <rondogplaya> 10.*?
[21:02] <iToast> Even then you should wait for 12
[21:02] <iToast> 10. anything
[21:02] <rondogplaya> *
[21:02] <rondogplaya> ok
[21:02] <iToast> * = anything
[21:03] <styelz> Mad_Clog: what does, sudo lshw -c disk . say, does it show the disk there?
[21:03] <bullgard6> Myrtti: My friend says that this Debian package is dated January 15, 2012 ("acceptedin Unstable").This is probably the explanation. --  Thank you for commenting.
[21:03] <styelz> Mad_Clog: can you see the drive in the output?
[21:03] <Mad_Clog> styelz: yes it does
[21:04] <styelz> Mad_Clog: ok, so you need to create a filesystem on it
[21:04] <rondogplaya> im on desktop,  Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.26 GHz lol and 1gb ram
[21:04] <styelz> Mad_Clog: but i thought oyu had a filesystem on it already
[21:04] <Mad_Clog> styelz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/810066/
[21:04] <Mad_Clog> styelz: yes, i had a working install yesterday, it just stopped working
[21:05] <Mad_Clog> styelz: gparted does show the disk with ext4 on it, have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1911856
[21:05] <styelz> try run fsck on it
[21:06] <Mad_Clog> styelz: like this i assume? fsck /dev/sda2
[21:07] <Mad_Clog> styelz: fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda2 Possibly non-existent device?
[21:08] <zykotick9> Mad_Clog: 1) it's probably NOT ext2 2) "sudo fdisk -l" to list available partitions
[21:08] <northernen> My Unity side bar only covers half of the screen (height wise). How do I fix that?
[21:08] <styelz> Mad_Clog: what does, sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda show ?
[21:08] <hkais> how can I fix the issue with high cpu usage of xorg on 11.10?
[21:08] <Mad_Clog> styelz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/810069/
[21:08] <zykotick9> hkais: use a more lightweight DE/WM.
[21:09] <styelz> fsck should detect what fs it is, i would have thought.
[21:09] <hkais> zykotick9: I already installed gnome3
[21:09] <Flinny> Wonder if anyone has any idea's... AHCI in raid mode 1 SSD 2x640GB disks mirrored for doze and a 1TB disk I want to install onto, Graphical install doesn't seem to like my 5870/monitors even with nomodeset and text based installer doesn't do fakeraid from what I've read.
[21:09] <hkais> but no success
[21:09] <zykotick9> hkais: which is a heavy DE
[21:10] <Mad_Clog> zykotick9: fdisk -l --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/810070/
[21:10] <hkais> zykotick9: which one can you recommend?
[21:10] <styelz> ewww
[21:10] <Mad_Clog> that doesn't look to good
[21:10] <styelz> narp
[21:10] <zykotick9> hkais: GPT parition, sorry i haven't used one - good luck.
[21:11] <styelz> major corruption
[21:11] <zykotick9> hkais: xfce is similar in resources to Gnome2, lxde is lighter.  Any WM is MUCH lighter.
[21:11] <hkais> zykotick9: the bad thing is that I had only a few issues with the 10.04 and every upcomming new version made it worse and worser
[21:12] <Mad_Clog> styelz: any way to fix it, besides a reinstall?
[21:12] <zykotick9> hkais: yup, that's the direction ubuntu is headed...
[21:14] <styelz> Mad_Clog: not really. Maybe read thios if you want to recover some data from the drive. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[21:15] <hkais> zykotick9: hmm that is not good... I have seen many distributions loosing their users due to stupid developments
[21:15] <styelz> Mad_Clog: maybe install smartmontools and check the SMART info on the drive to see if it is failing
[21:15] <compdoc> Mad_Clog, check the smart data
[21:15] <styelz> :)
[21:16] <Mad_Clog> styelz compdoc: smart checked out, first thing i did
[21:16] <zykotick9> styelz: compdoc "great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ" ;)
[21:16] <compdoc> Mad_Clog, no reallocated sectors? no pending?
[21:17] <Darkfrost> I've spent about 2 days trying to get wifi working on my netbook in lubuntu, but it just keeps telling me it's off on the hardware switch (It's not),  rfkill unblock doesn't help, any ideas? (Network controller - BCM4312 )
[21:17] <mythfan> Any here had setup hdpvr blaster with ubuntu 11.10
[21:17] <Pupuser-2> whats up?
[21:17] <Flinny> Any other suggestions than nomodeset for graphical installer not working? :)
[21:17] <zykotick9> Darkfrost: if you happen to be dual-booting the other OS, try going into it, enable wireless then reboot into ubuntu (see if it's different)
[21:18] <Darkfrost> Don't have any other OS installed :(
[21:18] <zykotick9> Flinny: if you don't find a solution to GUI installer there is that alternate cd
[21:18] <zykotick9> s/that/the/
[21:18] <Mad_Clog> compdoc: i used "disk utility" which comes with the live install, SMART status says "Disk is healty"
[21:19] <Flinny> zykotick : I tried that.. but from what I gather it doesn't support fakeraid (dmaraid) ?
[21:19] <zykotick9> !tab > Flinny
[21:19] <zykotick9> Flinny: it's the LiveCD (GUI) that doesn't support RAID, teh alternate should
[21:20] <ottoshmidt> Psi-Jack, yea of course.. i knew that you're an ubuntu guy
[21:20] <ottoshmidt> == teenager
[21:20] <styelz> Mad_Clog: did you try that testdisk utility ?
[21:20] <styelz> i;ve never used it
[21:20] <mythfan> Any here offert paid support to config a hdpvr blaster
[21:21] <iToast> well
[21:21] <iToast> who ever told me to use ubutnu minimal netinstaller just made a bigger mess
[21:21] <iToast> Now i can't install the os.
[21:21] <zykotick9> iToast: that would be me.  sorry about that.
[21:21] <iToast> its downloaded every packkage it needs
[21:22] <iToast> -_-
[21:22] <zykotick9> iToast: that's what a Netinstaller does...
[21:22] <Mad_Clog> styelz: you mean "Self-test" in the "Disk Utility"? then yes
[21:22] <iToast> zykotick9, it FAILED to install.
[21:22] <iToast> It downloaded a os just because its "pretty"
[21:22] <styelz> Mad_Clog: testdisk, from terminal. not sure if its the same
[21:22] <iToast> It says it faioled to install the os
[21:22] <iToast> failed*
[21:22] <styelz> i had to do apt-get install testdisk
[21:23] <Flinny> zykotick9, the alternate didn't see any disks at all. I'll go have another go then.
[21:23] <ottoshmidt> Psi-Jack, masturbator.. did you hear what I said?
[21:24] <Mad_Clog> styelz: E: Unable to locate package testdisk, and yes i did do apt-get update
[21:24] <zykotick9> !info testdisk
[21:25] <styelz> Mad_Clog: it's in universe repo.. maybe its not enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list  not sure

[21:26] <Flexa> hi guys, anyone tried to migrate a server OFF ec2?? Running 11.04 I tar'd / excluding boot dev proc. The system finally boots but just to a terminal where i can see some of the services started but cant do much else...?
[21:26] <elfurbe> So, I've got two SSDs in a server I'm building, I'd like trim support to work but I want them mirrored. How would one go about doing that intelligently?
[21:26] <Mad_Clog> styelz: universe it was, installing
[21:27] <elfurbe> I thought I was just gonna use LVM mirroring but I can't get it to create a mirrored lv in the installer
[21:27] <elfurbe> And you can't add mirrors later apparently
[21:27] <elfurbe> Cause I tried that
[21:27] <ultimal> hi!....Is there any way to make the system tray popup menus to stop closing instantly when I click on the icons...seems like some weird bug. I don't even know how to describe it.
[21:29] <Barbariandude> Hi all. Something is slowing down my computer since I upgraded to kernel 3.2. Anyone know if there's a way of finding out what's going on?
[21:29] <Darkfrost> ultimal: You mean the menus disappear as you as you open them or something?
[21:29] <ultimal> no
[21:29] <Wargasm> for those new to ubuntu, be careful with the openbox desktop environment... I didn't know it was supposed to be a black screen lol
[21:29] <ultimal> as soon as I click on an icon
[21:29] <ultimal> it comes up, stays there for a split second and then disappears
[21:30] <ultimal> this happens about 70% of the times
[21:30] <ultimal> sometimes it will work and just stay there and let me select and click the options
[21:30] <ultimal> but most of the time it just comes up and disappears in a split second
[21:30] <ultimal> even if I click on it 5 times.
[21:30] <Darkfrost> o_O
[21:30] <ultimal> If I keep the mouse button, it stays there and works
[21:30] <enry> !list
[21:31] <ultimal> for as long as the button is down

[21:56] <awhitehatter> Has anyone successfully mounted a truecrypt partition via script at bootup?
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> quiet tonight
[22:00] <epod> yeah really
[22:00] <epod> the join/parts are hypnotising.
[22:00] <ghostmediapro1> apt-get errorThe connection to 32.repository.backtrack-linux.org was interrupted
[22:00] <epod> ActionParsnip: what'd you do to all the chatter?
[22:00] <studentz> awhitehatter: you mean have a encrypted partition and mount at bootup time?
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> ghostmediapro1: I'd ask in #backtrack
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> sorry #backtrack-linux
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> epod: I have join/parts hidden
[22:01] <awhitehatter> studentz: yes...i have an external drive, i only want encrypted in case I lose it...otherwise I'd like it to mount at boot time so I can run automatic backups
[22:02] <Wargasm> wow this truecrypt is really interesting... I might use it
[22:02] <Wargasm> I learn so much from this channel
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> Wargasm: makes the community stronger :)
[22:04] <studentz> awhitehatter; can you post your script Pastebin or similar?
[22:04] <Angablade> I know this doesn't directly face ubuntu, but one things about it do. http://www.rlslog.net/megaupload-megavideo-raided-by-fbi-owners-arrested/
[22:04] <awhitehatter> studentz: absolutely
[22:04] <Angablade> There goes our file transfer
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> epod: maybe Oneiric fixed everything ;)
[22:05] <van> just installed Lubuntu and it is still  randomly logs me out - closes all apps and go back to log in screen. any idea whats the problem?
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> Van: does it happen as all users? Make a new one if necessary
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> Van: also may want to test RAM using memtest in grub
[22:06] <van> looks like some gui bug to me, no idea what exactly. happens sometimes when i move icon, sometimes when i rightclick something etc
[22:06] <van> just wondering if its normal with this Lubuntu distribution
[22:07] <yshavit> if I have a script that errors, which I've launched via the Run Application dialogue, where does stderr go?  (I'm on Ubuntu 10)
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> van: I use Lubuntu 12.04 and its fine, was the same in 11.10 too
[22:08] <van> ActionParsnip, thanks, i'll try making new user or reinstalling soon
[22:08] <awhitehatter> studentz: http://pastebin.com/At2vE4JP
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> van: ram test too, try and get a wired connection and you can drop to TTY1 and upgrade the OS to the latest upates
[22:09] <niki_> !list
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> awhitehatter: add it in /etc/rc.local   above the exit 0 line, it will run as root
[22:10] <tripelb> hi all. Will 11,04 run with 504 M of RAM?
[22:10] <tripelb> it didnt
[22:10] <van> 1gb is minimum for ubuntu
[22:10] <van> try Lubuntu with 512 :)
[22:11] <tripelb> oh van.. but she only has 504
[22:11] <Darkfrost> @van, running latest lubuntu, no logout issues here :-/
[22:11] <van> ops ;>
[22:11] <awhitehatter> ActionParsnip: I tried, it doesn't work ...can't find it failing in the logs
[22:11] <tripelb> what distro will run with 504 ram?
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: 512Mb is bare min but it will run, just not very well
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> tripelb: lubuntu, Xubuntu, puppy, tinycore, puppy, slitaz
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> awhitehatter: strange, should run just before the login screen
[22:12] <mydogsnameisrudy> puppy 2 times must best ;)
[22:13] <[deXter]> ?
[22:13] <Darkfrost> Or just an old version of ubuntu :p
[22:14] <Darkfrost> Better to go with lubuntu / xubuntu than that though
[22:14] <mydogsnameisrudy> never had any problems with the old ubuntu so
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> with 504Mb RAM, Lubuntu will run well
[22:17] <Humbedooh> plenty well
[22:18] <sskalnik> Which command lists the files installed by a package?
[22:18] <Flexa> anyone know how to umount /dev/sda1 ubuntu 11.04 in vmware...people say boot from a live cd but i cant do that in vmware...
[22:18] <mionut> dpkg -L package_name
[22:19] <sskalnik> thanks
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: why can't you boot livecD in VMWare?
[22:20] <Flexa> my ubuntu box is vmware...
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: so
[22:20] <studentz> awhitehatter:  since the script works well from terminal, you only have to add the script to startup applications
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: you can boot CDs and ISOs in VMWare...
[22:20] <Flexa> if i want to do if from a bootable usb then...
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: will be fine, booting ISO file will be faster'
[22:21] <Flexa> im basically trying to restore my filesystem in ubuntu 11.04 vmware..
[22:21] <Flexa> so i have my tar'd backup...
[22:22] <Wargasm> anyone use iceweasel as their primary browser?
[22:22] <Flexa> can i start to boot my VM and then boot from a usb attached device from there?
[22:22] <aeon-ltd> Wargasm: ask the actual question
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: I'd boot ISO file and then you'll get the live environment and you can maipulate the installed OS
[22:23] <KTL> i installed some device to measure the power consumption of my pc. The weird thing i just noticed is that the machines uses about 50 Watt more in a old black and grey kernel terminal compared to a colourfull 2-screen xorg-display
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/7591-boot-from-your-usb-drive-under-vmware
[22:24] <Flexa> ActionParsnip ive done that before and yes that boots my into a vm of my usb boot disk
[22:24] <Flexa> cool
[22:24] <Flexa> but from there
[22:25] <Flexa> how can I access one of my other VM's to attempt to restore the files..
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: the VM config will have the virtualdrive set to be in the VM, so you can mount it either in nautilus etc, or at command line
[22:26] <awhitehatter> studentz: will it run with root permissions or is there a way to give root access from startup applications?
[22:26] <Flexa> ...
[22:27] <Flexa> i cant mount at command line
[22:29] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: does the disk show up in:  sudo fdisk -l
[22:30] <Flexa> but how will my live usb distro, now in vmware be able to see my other VM /dev/sda?
[22:30] <Flexa> no...
[22:31] <studentz> awhitehatter: I'm no sure, but  if not you can try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RcLocalHowto
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: then I'd check your VM config
[22:31] <shadaloo> hey
[22:32] <Flexa> vmconfig?
[22:32] <shadaloo> brascero says my project is too large for the DVD when it IS NOT
[22:32] <shadaloo> any brainiacs here?
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: you need to configure the VM to use the same drive file as you had before
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: tried any other burning apps?
[22:32] <aeon-ltd> shadaloo: so how big is it?
[22:32] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: why would I do that
[22:33] <aeon-ltd> shadaloo: in case it's a bug in brasero
[22:33] <shadaloo> aeon-ltd: I am trying to burn an .avi to a DVD-RW
[22:33] <aeon-ltd> shadaloo: so uh how big is it?
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: to see if the issue is just isolated to brasero or if it is other burners. whyever  else??
[22:33] <aeon-ltd> anywhere close to 4.7gb?
[22:33] <shadaloo> the .avi file is 3.4GB, I only have 500MB left on this hard drive, however
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: what have you used to make the avi DVD ready?
[22:34] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: nothing
[22:34] <shadaloo> I heard brascero can transcode
[22:34] <shadaloo> I read*
[22:34] <shadaloo> http://www.ehow.com/way_5811731_avi-dvd-conversion-ubuntu.html
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: I suggest you use devede and you can make a DVD ISO, then burn that
[22:34] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: I will trust you on this matter
[22:36] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: is this program cli or gui?
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: GUI
[22:37] <shadaloo> china videodisc
[22:37] <shadaloo> lol
[22:38] <shadaloo> I see what the problem is
[22:38] <shadaloo> when I recode this to DVD format it's at 107% the disc capcity
[22:38] <shadaloo> good idea ActionParsnip
[22:39] <shadaloo> do you have any suggestions
[22:39] <Flexa> ActionParsnip where can i find the vm config ?
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: i'd ask in #vmware dude, you'll need to config your VM properly. Have you considered virtualbox. It's a bit easier
[22:41] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: hey it's trying to create an 8.5GB .iso
[22:41] <shadaloo> How can I get a 4.6ishGB .iso? ^^
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: did you select to fix the DVD size, it'll reduce quality and such so it fits
[22:42] <shadaloo> probably not
[22:43] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: where is that?
[22:43] <shadaloo> I looked in adv. options
[22:43] <shadaloo> didn't see
[22:43] <Flexa> ActionParsnip yeh but unfortunately cant , has to be vmware
[22:44] <PDG2> Unrelated. Does anyone know of a development change for chrome extensions?
[22:44] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: where you at
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: http://imagecdn.maketecheasier.com/2009/03/devede.jpg    note the "adjust disk image" button...
[22:45] <shadaloo> what's a parsnip
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: jesus child hav some patience
[22:45] <aeon-ltd> lol
[22:45] <zamiel> veggie
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: i'm finding an image, I'm not that fast
[22:46] <itaylor57> shadaloo, its a carrot only white

[22:46] <shadaloo> I see
[22:46] <shadaloo> hey ActionParsnip
[22:46] <shadaloo> when I click that nothing happens
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> Flexa: the guys in #vmware willbe able to get the drive images squared so you can access them in liveCD ;)
[22:46] <shadaloo> I tried clicking the bar, also nothing
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: do you have the right media size?
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: nice lack of apology too, do you have any manners?
[22:47] <shadaloo> this family wrote a letter to my mom once saying how exceptional my manners were
[22:47] <shadaloo> I met them on a vacation
[22:47] <shadaloo> lol
[22:47] <dannel> LOL
[22:47] <shadaloo> yes

[23:01] <ActionParsnip> Younos: use:  gksudo nautilus     and you can then
[23:01] <ActionParsnip> Younos: or use:  sudo cp file /usr/bin
[23:01] <ActionParsnip> Younos: make sure the file is marked as executable too ;)

[23:06] <ActionParsnip> Younos: you'll need a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications   to get it to show in dash and such
[23:06] <Younos> ahh. ok ty i'll see if i can make such a thing
[23:09] <graft> yo, i want to view an 18000x18000 TIFF. What do I use?

[23:10] <shadaloo> itaylor57: that didn't work
[23:11] <shadaloo> why does DeVeDe want to make my .iso 8.5GB after I already clicked adjust size
[23:11] <ActionParsnip> graft: 10Gb file (ish)
[23:12] <Younos> ActionParsnip: woot that worked! ty :))

[23:12] <ActionParsnip> graft: I'd shoot for Gimp, It'll take a while to open
[23:13] <ultimal> Ok guys! I restarted my machine, logged off and did all the usual stuff. The popup menus on the icons in the system tray, still show for a split second and then disappear. They don't wait for me to select an option. Any ideas?
[23:13] <ActionParsnip> jorge: what is the output of:    wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh; chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh; ./alsa-info.sh       Thanks
[23:14] <UnknownFrequency> hi everyone.. Anyone know how to setup an additional web-root folder for apache2? Or grant eclipse ide acceess to /var/www
[23:14] <genesisbot> Does any one here run teamveiwer on the linux box
[23:14] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: dude how do I scale quality on this program?
[23:14] <dddbmt> Need a good name for an object that holds {width,height,top,left} where top and left being coordinates.
[23:14] <dddbmt> wrong channel
[23:14] <ActionParsnip> shadaloo: every time I've used it the adjust space button has set the quality low enough to fit on a DVD. Did you select to make a 4.7Gb DVD when you ran the app??
[23:15] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip: yes -.-
[23:15] <genesisbot> Does any one here run teamveiwer on the linux box
[23:15] <graft> UnknownFrequency: just change DocumentRoot to be whatever directory you want
[23:15] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: what are you connecting to the server to achieve? There are often sleeker solutions
[23:17] <genesisbot> well i cant figure out how to install it ive downloaded it but im stuck
[23:18] <iceroot> genesisbot: you dont install teamviewer, you have to install wine "sudo apt-get install wine" and just run the extracted teamviewer-file
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: you may not need it, you may be able to do what you need faster and cleaner with other tools
[23:19] <genesisbot> iceroot: thanks ill try that real wuick
[23:19] <ultimal> Ok guys! I restarted my machine, logged off and did all the usual stuff. The popup menus on the icons in the system tray, still show for a split second and then disappear. They don't wait for me to select an option. Any ideas?
[23:19] <genesisbot> actionparsnip: what are you talking about
[23:20] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: for what reason are you connecting to the system?
[23:20] <genesisbot> actionparsnip: its a home ftp server and some times i need to view the desktop
[23:21] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: you can manage ftp servers via SSH
[23:21] <pambos> Guys, I am using the latest version of Ubuntu. How can I remotely connect to my Ubuntu server?
[23:22] <Resistance> pambos: gui connection, or CLI?
[23:22] <shadaloo> ActionParsnip:
[23:22] <shadaloo> I deleted some files to make room for 8.5GB and am going to give this a whirl
[23:22] <genesisbot> ActionParsnip: i dont know how thats why i use teamviewer and im new to linux
[23:22] <shadaloo> I don't know why it wants so much space
[23:22] <shadaloo> but whatever
[23:22] <pambos> Resistance: Is is possible to gui connect ?
[23:23] <Resistance> pambos: i know there are ways, i just dont know them enough to set em up
[23:23] <pambos> I am the root of that server but I dont have phisical access to it
[23:23] <Resistance> pambos: if you want CLI, set up SSH
[23:23] <shadaloo> physical
[23:23] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: its not needed, I always ask people who think they need the whole dekstop and they always say someting like "Install updates" or stuff like that which you can do with ssh
[23:24] <pambos> Resistance How can I setup gui connection?
[23:24] <genesisbot> ActionParsnip: i don't know how to set up a ssh or connect via ssh
[23:24] <resus> hi all i'm trying to rescue a broken system and i'm at the grub> prompt via rescue cd what do i pass to root=? i have LVM and my root partition is a volume group
[23:24] <imbezol> when i boot my lvm devices are not discovered automatically. i have to lvscan and lvchange -ay on them before i can mount them. any thoughts?
[23:24] <Resistance> pambos: i just said i dont know those methods. question though, why do you need to remote connect, out of curiousity?
[23:25] <pambos> Resistance: I need to see something :)
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: sudo apt-get install openssh-server     and you can connect with:  ssh -X username@servername    and connect to a terminal, you can even run GUI apps as X forwarding is enabled by default
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: it will also give an SFTP server by default which runs on port 22 and is secure unlike ftp
[23:26] <genesisbot> Actionparsnip: i can use this even if the other computer is a windows
[23:26] <hiexpo> hola
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> genesisbot: sure, use putty
[23:27] <hiexpo> sup guys how ya been ?
[23:27] <pambos> ActionParsnip: How can I remote connect to my server without using ssh ?
[23:27] <itaylor57> genesisbot, and winscp
[23:27] <Darkfrost> Ugh, still can't get my Wi-Fi working D:
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> pambos: depends what you want to do..
[23:28] <genesisbot> Thanks guys im gonna give it a try
[23:28] <ratcheer> Darkfrost: What wireless hw do you have?
[23:29] <pambos> ActionParsnip: See the desktop of my dedicated server etc. I know how to setup ssh connection.
[23:29] <Darkfrost> Broadcom Corporation BCM4312
[23:29] <pambos> But is it possible to access the desktop of the server?
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> pambos: but what do you do on the server, what tasks?
[23:29] <ratcheer> Darkfrost: A lot of people have trouble with that one, but it is not one I know how to fix.
[23:29] <sere> Darkfrost i have that same card
[23:30] <pambos> ActionParsnip: Hosting, Broadcasting TV etc
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | Darkfrost
[23:30] <Darkfrost> Can't get it to not sure "Disabled by hardware switch" - Hard blocked in rfkill, unblock is no help
[23:30] <ActionParsnip> pambos: if the tv hosting only has a GUI interface then you could use vnc through an ssh tunnel
[23:31] <ActionParsnip> Darkfrost: did you run:   sudo rfkill unblock all
[23:31] <Darkfrost> Yeah, still says hard blocked
[23:31] <ActionParsnip> Darkfrost: run:  dmesg | grep -i firm     does it say firmware missing?
[23:32] <Darkfrost> Hm
[23:32] <Darkfrost> Firmware Bug: ACPI : BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
[23:32] <ActionParsnip> Darkfrost: that's all?
[23:32] <Darkfrost> that line twice, that's it
[23:33] <ActionParsnip> Darkfrost: if you run:  sudo iwlist scan     do you see networks (worth a punt)
[23:33] <pambos> ActionParsnip: Interesting. And if it has not GUI interface install it and connect the way you said.
[23:33] <Darkfrost> Nope, lo / eh0 say "interface doesn't support scanning", eth1 - Failed to read scan data : invalid arg
[23:34] <DarkStar11> Need help. I seem to be missing some setting as my web app keeps generating pdfs with the $ currency sign instead of € and I have tried to set the locale everywhich way I can think of
[23:35] <ultimal> Ok guys! I restarted my machine, logged off and did all the usual stuff. The popup menus on the icons in the system tray, still show for a split second and then disappear. They don't wait for me to select an option. Any ideas?
[23:36] <pambos> WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!
[23:36] <pambos> is this something I have to worry ?
[23:37] <BarkingFish> pambos: Where did you see that?
[23:37] <BarkingFish> And what were you doing at the time?
[23:37] <pambos> BarkingFish: I tried to ssh connect to my server.
[23:38] <pambos> Also IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)! It is also possible that a host key has just been changed.
[23:38]  * Wargasm puts up firewall
[23:39] <DarkStar11> Can anyone help please??
[23:39] <urlin2u> pambos, please don't use capitals except where needed.
[23:39] <[deXter]> DarkStar11, ?
[23:39] <BarkingFish> pambos: I would have no idea on that.  I don't use SSH and have no experience of it
[23:39] <BarkingFish> Anyone else care to take this one on?
[23:39] <urlin2u> padmee, why are you pming me?
[23:39] <pambos> urlin2u: Sorry, I copy paste it from my termina..
[23:39] <pambos> terminal*
[23:39] <DarkStar11> [deXter]: I'm having locale problems
[23:39] <padmee> urlin2u:  cause i am a horny girl.
[23:40] <urlin2u> op
[23:40] <urlin2u> !op
[23:40] <DarkStar11> [deXter]: and I have tried just about everything
[23:40] <Myrtti> hm?
[23:40] <niksoft> Hi
[23:40] <pambos> urlin2u: Is it something I have to worry about?
[23:40] <urlin2u> pambos, not in my area of pay. :D
[23:40] <northernen> pambos, probably not.
[23:40] <DarkStar11> [deXter]: but the java.lang.getCurrencyInstance funtion still keeps returning $
[23:40] <Butters> Hey all.
[23:41] <DarkStar11> instead of €
[23:41] <pambos> RSA host key for IP has changed and you have requested strict checking.
[23:41] <pambos> What is the RSA?
[23:41] <Butters> when I try to install ubuntu on my laptop, I get the menu options but I can not do anything after that.
[23:41] <Butters> Can anyone help me?
[23:41] <orlok> pambos: it means the SSH server has changed
[23:41] <northernen> It's an encryption algorithm.
[23:41] <DarkStar11> and me
[23:41] <orlok> pambos: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA
[23:42] <urlin2u> Butters, are you geting to the live desktop?
[23:42] <pambos> urlin2u: Please ban  Tau. They are spamming me private to joing a channel called calculus.
[23:42] <urlin2u> pambos, I don't have that power
[23:42] <Butters> urlin2u: no I can't even get to that. WAIT its doing something!
[23:42] <Butters> urlin2u: stand by
[23:43] <Butters> urlin2u: It is stuck on the boot loading screen, after I chose to install...
[23:44] <Butters> urlin2u: It is doing something...THE INSTALL SCREEN
[23:44] <Butters> urlin2u: thanks anyways
[23:44] <urlin2u> Butters, could be a number of reasons here, have you checked the md5sum of the ISO?
[23:44] <Wargasm> Patience is a virtue? lol
[23:44] <niksoft> Anyone have any good suggestions for configuring a high tps and high throughput web box? Before you answer, i am talking over 10k tps and over 10gig throughput. I have been playing with ubuntu server for the last day or so, running on a box with  a bonded 20Gig (802.3ad), 96 gb of ram, 24 virtual cores, nginx compiled with threaded malloc from google performance tools, and with tons of tweaks to the network defaults. currently cant serve over 10gi
[23:44] <niksoft> g, I start seeing fails around 8ktps, they are tolerable till around 10-11ktps, then they just go up with the load
[23:45] <Butters> urlin2u: That isn't the issue, I have tried multiple CD's
[23:45] <urlin2u> Butters, okay, good luck hope you get it working?
[23:47] <Butters> Wargasm: I know right?
[23:48] <niksoft> actually at 19k tps on a 5kb file, the box just pukes all over itself and starts dropping connections left and right
[23:48] <Butters> Wargasm: I have been trying for a couple of weeks, and it just now decided to do something
[23:50] <harris> how does ubuntu compare to xubuntu? is it mostly the same?
[23:50] <urlin2u> niksoft, have you tried  #ubuntu-server
[23:50] <pambos> Guys I need to remove the RSA ssh-keygen -f "/home/pambos/.ssh/known_hosts" -R  ip-adress
[23:50] <urlin2u> harris, different desktops
[23:51] <pambos> but it is not removing it... strange?
[23:51] <niksoft> urlin2u, i have, its a bit dead around there, i tried twice today, nobody ever answers, infact you are the first
[23:51] <Butters> I spliced bt5 and ubuntu together and went to upgrade to 10.10 and the computer pooped out on me, and now I'm using the install disk to finish the upgrade :D
[23:51] <Butters> smart huh?
[23:51] <urlin2u> niksoft, cool it just seems rather complex at least to me lol.
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> Butters: not hugely, backtrack isn't supported here
[23:52] <urlin2u> Butters, bt of any kind is not supported here.
[23:52] <Butters> ActionParsnip: I know, but I am new to linux and doing this is pretty big for me.
[23:52] <orlok> Butters: whats bt?
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> Butters: so you just killed off a lot of support...
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> orlok: backtrack linux
[23:52] <harris> so, ubuntu is basically same as xubuntu?
[23:52] <Butters> uorlok: bt is backtrack its a mod of ubuntu
[23:52] <pambos> In addition using ssh in order to connect with the server Permission denied, please try again. At work using putty for windows I connected without any problem this morning.
[23:53] <orlok> ahah. is that name taken from my "i backtraced your ip?"
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> its ubuntu but runs a lot of network security tools and such, people seem to think its smart to use it for daily tasks like web browse and check email
[23:53] <Darkfrost> xubuntu is ubuntu with XFCE instead of (Gnome? Unity?)
[23:53] <Butters> uorlok: different kernel with pen testing tools, but it has a bunch of security holes in it that are fixed in the new ubuntu upgrade. bt5 support hasn't made anything yet so I did this
[23:53] <Butters> I think it will be better anyways
[23:53] <urlin2u> harris, pretty much the web is your best look really.
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> Darkfrost: by default yes, you can install xfce4 on ubuntu and choose which DE you want at boot
[23:53] <Butters> ActionParsnip: like i care?
[23:53] <jorge> ActionParsnip: Really sorry for the delay..., here is the output ( i have trouble with sound in 11.10 ) http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=be7380f3190c2f2887aca30bf3b77a6ecfb3bc45
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> Butters: when you have issues, you will
[23:54] <orlok> Butters: "security holes".. what, as in services open by default?
[23:54] <Butters> ActionParsnip: then i just come back under a dif IP and a new nick and act like its ubuntu
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> jorge: which sound device do you want output from?
[23:54] <orlok> Butters: old packages?
[23:54] <ActionParsnip> Butters: we'll see ;)
[23:54] <niksoft> urlin2u, lol i think that maybe devs are afraid a little, its far more extreme then anything i have seen done at this point, i just want to get this to 20g throughput and to go over say 30k tps, which would be convincing that linux is ready for prime time in the Service provider world... but no matter how hard i try, and i have fixed a lot of various issues, i just can't get it to work like i'd want it to
[23:54] <Butters> orlok: yes to both of those, and that it is logged in as root by default
[23:55] <DarkStar11> does anyone know where the jvm reads the system settings from in ubuntu 10.10? especially the locale settings
[23:55] <niksoft> well that and i need it to do that for a project i am testing... and i'd really rather not go to BSD and admit defeat...
[23:55] <orlok> Butters: heh, seems kinda silly to me, but.. meh
[23:55] <resus> hi i'm trying to reinstall grub with a rescue dvd can't do it
[23:56] <Butters> orlok: yeah, but I like doing things that are difficult and ultimately meaningless
[23:56] <resus> any partition i try on reboot it says failed to boot
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> resus: there is a how to on omgubuntu
[23:56] <urlin2u> resus, rescue cd?
[23:56] <Ansikt> Hey all, just installed kubuntu, but grub didn't get installed
[23:56] <resus> urlin2u i'm booting with the ubuntu dvd selecting rescue
[23:56] <Ansikt> Tried the recovery steps from this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> Ansikt: you can boot to liveCD: www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/09/live-usb-sticking-grub-2-video/
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> resus: www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/09/live-usb-sticking-grub-2-video/
[23:57] <urlin2u> !grub | resus
[23:57] <Ansikt> Wait....Ubuntu uses grub2?
[23:57] <urlin2u> Ansikt, you see the bots grub post?
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> Ansikt: since Karmic, yes
[23:58] <jorge> ActionParsnip: It's an ALC655 Realtek, at the first time it was working, but I belive that all screw up when I begin to add third party repositories.
[23:58] <Ansikt> OHHHHHHH!!!  Well, that would explain why my commands aren't working ;~;  Thanks, ActionParsnip and urlin2u, you're pretty cool guys and gals.
[23:59] <jorge> ActionParsnip: ALC665*
[23:59] <DarkStar11> ActionParsnip: hello. do you know anything about which files affect the ubuntu system locales?
[23:59] <ActionParsnip> jorge: in sound settings, is the output device set correctly?
[23:59] <ActionParsnip> !locale
