| deitarion | downbeam: Ok. Do you want to keep the right-click menu you currently have and just add "Desktop Preferences" or do you want to switch to the menu that has options for manipulating desktop icons like Create New, Paste, Sort Files, and Select All. | 00:00 |

| downbeam | i just want to switch | 00:01 |
| deitarion | downbeam: In the "Desktop Preferences" window, click the "Advanced" tab. You should see a checkbox labeled "Show menus provided by window managers when desktop is clicked". Uncheck that and you should be good. | 00:01 |
| downbeam | i don't have that on lubuntu | 00:02 |
| deitarion | Which version of Lubuntu? I'm on oneiric ocelot (11.10) and it's there. | 00:03 |

| sherif | hi | 00:11 |
| sherif | anyone help? | 00:12 |
| urlin2u | sherif, can you name the problem, then if anyone knows they will help. | 00:13 |
| sherif | ok | 00:13 |
| JetJaguarXP | If I have installed and am running kernel 3.2 can I just uninstall the old kernel that I'm not using? | 00:13 |
| sherif | when i log in ubuntu he tells me everytime that an application needs "keyring" | 00:13 |
| psusi | JetJaguarXP, yes | 00:14 |
| sherif | and i have to unlock | 00:14 |
| sherif | everytime | 00:14 |
| urlin2u | JetJaguarXP, generally 2 kernels are suggested. | 00:14 |
| JetJaguarXP | Cool, I have three kernels. | 00:14 |
| Tellmarch | yeah it's best to keep at least one backup kernel | 00:14 |
| urlin2u | sherif, the network manager? | 00:14 |
| JetJaguarXP | I added 3.1 and 3.2 today. | 00:14 |
| sherif | huh? | 00:14 |
| psusi | once you have tested the new kernel and are satisfied that it is working, there's no need to keep the old one | 00:14 |
| sherif | i guess | 00:15 |
| JetJaguarXP | Cool. apt-get remove <old kernel> ? | 00:15 |
| urlin2u | sherif, what is the application? | 00:15 |
| psusi | you just don't want to delete the old one before you make sure the new one works ;) | 00:15 |
| sherif | he never tells me | 00:15 |
| Tellmarch | no need, but it doesn't use much space too, and now grub hides them anyway, so it's kind of a bother to remove them for no visible gain | 00:15 |
| sherif | he just say an application reqyire me to unlock keyring | 00:15 |
| urlin2u | sherif, you using wireless? | 00:15 |
| sherif | dont even know wut is keyring | 00:15 |
| sherif | aha | 00:15 |
| sherif | sometimes | 00:16 |
| JetJaguarXP | Okey dokey, thanks folks. | 00:16 |
| rtorto | magicJ: no that's not the case, the soundcard does differentiate between those plugs, In windows you can choose one or the other. Pulseaudio just somehow doesn't get it | 00:16 |
| sherif | but my wirless light go on automatic | 00:17 |
| sherif | is that related | 00:17 |
| Tellmarch | ok, it's a bit annoying when it updates older kernel and ask you to reboot after it, but apart from that, no reason to remove them. | 00:17 |
| sherif | u there | 00:17 |
| sherif | urlinu | 00:17 |
| urlin2u | sherif, sounds like the network manager right click the wireless icon and then edit connections click on wireless then double click your connection then then tick connect automatically | 00:17 |
| sherif | ok i will try that | 00:18 |
| urlin2u | sherif, cool. | 00:18 |
| sherif | its ticked on connect automatically | 00:19 |
| sherif | shud i remove the tick | 00:19 |

| sherif | u there | 00:21 |
| urlin2u | sherif, yes | 00:21 |
| sherif | i removed the tick | 00:21 |
| sherif | now it wont ask me again? | 00:21 |

| littlegirl | Hey there, when Ubuntu puts out an LTS release, is all the software frozen at the version it's at when it's installed, or is there a certain number of versions that any software is allowed to be upgraded before it reaches whatever ceiling is set in the LTS? | 00:55 |
| jeremiah_ | like type this into the terminal. then it downloads, goes to a hundred and thats it | 00:56 |
| sherif | anyone knows how to install gyachi? | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | littlegirl: if the software is super stable, it will be included | 00:56 |
| acerimmer | littlegirl: you're discussing "feature freeze" | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | sherif: its a dead project afaik, i'd find an alternative | 00:56 |
| littlegirl | ActionParsnip: Yep, what I want to know is how the version freeze is determined. | 00:56 |
| sherif | ok i will just delete wut i downloaded | 00:56 |
| littlegirl | acerimmer: What I mean is that if I use Ubuntu LTS, I ca't have Firefox 9 installed by the package manager because the version is frozen much lower. How is that version determined? | 00:57 |
| acerimmer | littlegirl: as I understand it, updates to the packages will follow the initial LTS release, but no new packages will be added to the official LTS. Of course individual users can add, subtract, backport, etc | 00:57 |

| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: see how my text stands out from the rest, that's not an accident | 01:11 |
| jeremiah_ | like that? | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: yes, that highlighted me | 01:12 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: on each line you type, do that | 01:12 |
| jeremiah_ | ActionParsnip>ok | 01:12 |
| a_p3rson | jeremiah_: no, do a message like this: ActionParsnip: hello! | 01:12 |
| a_p3rson | like that | 01:12 |
| jeremiah_ | ActionParsnip: hello | 01:12 |
| artichoku | and i'm fixin' to loose terminal, the upgrade download just finished and now it's installing | 01:12 |
| jeremiah_ | is that it? | 01:12 |
| artichoku | sorry to delay my question, i'll get back on it as soon as it finishes | 01:12 |
| * DaveInKewaskum has a Ubuntu 10.04 SERVER question - installing ISPConf2 | 01:12 | |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: if you copy the whole line I gave and paste it to a terminal, it will give you 32bit oracle java 1.7_02 | 01:12 |
| urlin2u | !ask > DaveInKewaskum | 01:13 |
| ubottu | DaveInKewaskum, please see my private message | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: thats exactly it :) | 01:13 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> you never gave me anything to type in terminal | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: it adds the plugin for chromium, you can change it if you use something else | 01:13 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: lspci | grep Broadcom | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: cd; wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/install32bitJava; sudo ./install32bitJava | 01:14 |
| artichoku | bcm4311 | 01:14 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> in the terminal? | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: yes, copy and paste it | 01:14 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: suggest you use the link I sent and build your own driver. Instructions are in the Readme.txt. It's only sounds a bit scary... | 01:15 |
| chris__ | Day 2 of Umbutu and lovin it! | 01:15 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> I got this sudo: ./install32bitJava: command not found | 01:15 |
| artichoku | lol, i just went | 01:15 |
| artichoku | i'm just waiting for the upgrade to finish on the lappy, then i'll try it | 01:16 |
| ceed^ | chris__: Good to hear. I hope it'll be a lasting relationship :) | 01:16 |
| Jatinder | Hi ! Good Morning Everyone | 01:16 |
| od3n | anyone know if you can run programs under another users account | 01:16 |
| od3n | like the reverse of SUDO | 01:16 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: just follow the instructions and you should be fine. | 01:16 |
| a_p3rson | chris__: you ARE aware that you spelt it wrong, right? Umbutu...not Ubuntu | 01:16 |
| Jatinder | I want to remove the GUI of ubuntu desktop 11.10 | 01:16 |
| a_p3rson | just saying lol | 01:16 |
| Jatinder | is there any way to remove GUI from ubuntu 11.10? | 01:17 |
| Dougwiser | Ubumtoo | 01:17 |
| xangua | Jatinder: so...why did you install desktop version on first place¿ | 01:17 |
| artichoku | acerimmer: no worries. my only concern is that monitor mode works properly | 01:17 |
| Jatinder | there is no edition without GUI except server | 01:17 |
| artichoku | i do network security testing | 01:17 |
| Jatinder | I don't want any server | 01:17 |
| xangua | Jatinder: there is Minimal | 01:17 |
| xangua | !minimal | Jatinder | 01:17 |
| ubottu | Jatinder: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 01:17 |
| artichoku | so without monitor mode, it doesn't matter whether i can get online or not | 01:18 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: building your own is a better solution than using the deprecated old one. | 01:18 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Hello, I'm new to command line linux - IE: Ubuntu 10.04 SERVER. I'm setting up a webserver to host my own web pages and email. I followed the following tutroial -- http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-2 --- I'm stuck on the installing ISPConfig2. I have the ISPConfig-2.2.40.tar.gz file on CD, but I don't know how to access the CD from the command line to unpack and install the file ... | 01:18 |
| DaveInKewaskum | HELP?? | 01:18 |
| Jatinder | Minimal requires fast internet speed | 01:18 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> so? | 01:18 |
| Jatinder | which i currently dont have | 01:18 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: saying "so" doesn't mean anything | 01:18 |
| acerimmer | !server|DaveinKewaskum | 01:18 |
| ubottu | DaveinKewaskum: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server | 01:18 |
| Jatinder | I got the ubuntu cd with CHIP magazine | 01:18 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: did the file download ok? | 01:19 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> ok. so what do you think? | 01:19 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: again, did the file download? | 01:19 |
| acerimmer | rtorto: did you solve your audio issue?? | 01:19 |
| jeremiah_ | It didn't find it. did you see my other message? | 01:19 |
| Jatinder | how can I remove GUI ? | 01:19 |
| Aric | QUESTION UBUNTU 10.04 :: I am getting this issue using curl, and i tried apt-get install ca-certificates and still getting SSL issue when using curl, the issue is exactly as explained here: http://help.imified.com/kb/building-imified-bots/ca-cert-error-14090086 | 01:20 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> sorry i forgot to highlight. | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Jatinder: uninstall xorg and it will remove all GUI stuffs | 01:20 |
| artichoku | be right back, gotta switch to windows partition | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/install32bitJava download that | 01:21 |
| rtorto | acerimmer:No I sort of got distracted trying to figure out what position_fix did exactly | 01:21 |
| Jatinder | If I remove XORG in that case I will not able to install any other desktop environment on machine | 01:21 |
| Jatinder | isn't so? | 01:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Jatinder: sure you will, are you just wanting to install a different desktop?? | 01:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Jatinder: you can just install the other desktop, you can have as many installed as you like | 01:22 |
| jeremiah_ | i got the first one working. just a small error | 01:22 |
| * Bsims hates to say it but I'm considering trying BSD... Actual Documentation... written by grownups; and a focus on Just works vs Oooh Shiny, Lack of native Calibre is a downside lol I love my kindle fire | 01:22 | |
| urlin2u | Bsims, why are you telling us? | 01:23 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> or not... | 01:23 |
| Jatinder | Yes I want to try fluxbox | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: the link there is an updated one | 01:23 |
| * Bsims grins looking for reasons not to | 01:23 | |
| acerimmer | rtorto: Just a thought. Check your sound settings re: hardware | 01:23 |
| Jatinder | I tried this to remove XORG : sudo apt-get autoremove xorg | 01:23 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: apt-get install fluxbox, it will automaticaly add itself to gdm/kdm | 01:23 |
| urlin2u | Bsims, getting banned work for you if you do this often. | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Jatinder: then run: sudo apt-get install fluxbox log off then select fluxbox from the cog menu in the login screen | 01:23 |
| Jatinder | system just replied that it will remove only 170kb of the data | 01:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Jatinder: you don't have to pull everthing out to get fluxbox.... | 01:24 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> that didn't work either... | 01:24 |
| Fudge | how do you determine what to parse to apt-get -t from the sources.list or .d/ entry | 01:24 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: um why are you wanting to remove xorg? | 01:24 |
| Jatinder | i just want to keep FLUXBOX on my system | 01:24 |
| Sherlock01001 | anyone point me in the direction of a good tutorial for installing ubuntu on macbook air 2011 | 01:25 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: whats trying to remove it? | 01:25 |
| Jatinder | @Bsims: I am trying to remove GUI from Ubuntu-desktop 11.10 | 01:25 |
| urlin2u | Sherlock01001, #apple | 01:25 |
| rtorto | acerimmer:I think you are on to something, it seems to think that there is only one stereo output. Do you have any idea of how I could convince it otherwise? | 01:26 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: if you want to disable X from starting automaticaly http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1573037 | 01:26 |
| Jatinder | @ActionParsnip: Removing XORG doesn't seem to be removing GUI | 01:27 |
| Jatinder | @Bsims: I dont want to disable, I want to remove GUI | 01:27 |
| acerimmer | rtorto: try changing the Settings for selected device: Profile. | 01:27 |
| artichoku | back | 01:27 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: that was fast! | 01:27 |
| artichoku | lol | 01:27 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: you want it to start fluxbox by default, or boot by default to a terminal? | 01:27 |
| artichoku | sorry i had to unrar some stuff for my pop | 01:28 |
| artichoku | man when i upgraded to 11.10 on my desktop it took like 15 minutes | 01:28 |
| artichoku | the laptop says an hour | 01:28 |
| artichoku | that damn thing is slow | 01:28 |
| Bsims | artichoku: what mirror you using? | 01:28 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> can you think of anthing else? | 01:29 |
| artichoku | bsims: all the downloading is done, that's the install time | 01:29 |
| rtorto | acerimmer:No matter which profile I select it only shows 1 input/1 output | 01:29 |
| Jatinder | <Bsims> I want to keep only one DESKTOP environment on my system that is FLUXBOX | 01:29 |
| artichoku | old laptop, home built desktop | 01:29 |
| artichoku | it's just slow | 01:29 |
| Bsims | artichoku: Ah Ok | 01:29 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: so remove gnome and or kde? | 01:29 |
| Jatinder | that is why I want to remove current GUI of Ubuntu-desktop | 01:29 |
| Jatinder | how can I remove GNOME then | 01:30 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: thats the way I do it. I remember omgubuntu has a PPA listed | 01:30 |
| artichoku | bsims: the desktop has a quad core amd 3.2ghz processor, 16GB ram | 01:30 |
| acerimmer | rtorto: I'm fairly convinced your solution is in the sound preference settings. Look @ hardware>profile & Output>Connector | 01:30 |
| Jatinder | I tried this : sudo apt-get autoremove gnome | 01:30 |
| artichoku | the laptop is like pfffffft | 01:30 |
| Jatinder | it said gnome is not installed | 01:30 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: 16Gb RAM, what's the system for? | 01:30 |
| magicJ | artichoku: disable 3d - it makes a huge difference on underpowered machines | 01:30 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> well i have lubuntu | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: same difference | 01:31 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: i built it for my recording software | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: i use lubuntu too | 01:31 |
| artichoku | magic: it is | 01:31 |
| artichoku | studio* not software | 01:31 |
| artichoku | sry | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: makes sense then 16Bg is a lot for a desktop Liux | 01:31 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> oh. anyway now what do i do? | 01:31 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: fireup synaptic, install it if ya got to, and browse to the gnome section | 01:31 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: all I know is my script and the omgubutu site naming a ppa | 01:32 |
| Bsims | start adding uninstall | 01:32 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: yeah, but windows+all my recording software uses it up quickly | 01:32 |
| * Bsims grins uninstall gnome, though a lot of apps depend on gnome | 01:32 | |
| artichoku | a few tracks are fine on any pc, but when i have 42 tracks being used on one song, that ram is gone | 01:32 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> but why when i download from others i never find it? | 01:32 |
| shadowman0 | this sounds stupid but how can i check whether I created a partition for my ubuntu (i'm dual booting between xp/ubuntu). i honestly can't remember and I'm completely new at ubuntu | 01:33 |
| Ben64 | shadowman0: are you in ubuntu now? | 01:33 |
| shadowman0 | yeah | 01:33 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: gparted? | 01:33 |
| Ben64 | what Bsims said | 01:33 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: you need to use the update alternatives to set the java up fully, as you can see from my script | 01:33 |
| almoxarife | Jatinder: why do you want to strip gnome? | 01:33 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: yeah, windows is poor with RAM | 01:33 |
| urlin2u | Jatinder, go to the psychocat website there under playing around are lists to remove full desktops and install others look carefully and you can get the ful install of what you want to remove. | 01:33 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: yeah i have that installed but it's only ntfs and unallocated for the two "drives" | 01:34 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> but what is the update alturantives? | 01:34 |
| shadowman0 | and the ntfs has 149.00 GiB | 01:34 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: it really REALLY is, but thats what ppl make software for, so my hands are a bit tied | 01:34 |
| artichoku | beleive me, if i could all of my stuff to work with wine correctly, i'd never use windows | 01:34 |
| Bsims | Jatinder: disk space is cheap, I never ever use gnome but have it installed for the libs... worst case install ubuntu server and manually add only fluxbox | 01:34 |

| richard3 | hey guys | 01:35 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: thats odd.. then I'd say no | 01:35 |
| haylo | if you like gd3 try debian | 01:35 |
| haylo | it is the default desktop and comes real light | 01:35 |
| acerimmer | rtorto: fixed?? | 01:35 |
| haylo | but is a serious pain to install really | 01:35 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: so technically could I have as much data on ubuntu as possible? within the restrictions of my actual hard drive? | 01:36 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: there is a lot of video software for Linux | 01:36 |
| Bsims | haylo: not really, no harder than windows used to be <g> I know I was there | 01:36 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: www.ubuntustudio.org | 01:36 |
| ActionParsnip | haylo: I bet mine is lighter here on LXDE, also coded using GTK3.2 | 01:36 |
| artichoku | artichoku: yeah i've seen some really good stuff by way of video, but i'm really hurting for dreamweaver | 01:36 |
| richard3 | i'd like some help with ubuntu, i just installed it however i have a problem when i stop using the hdmi output on it the machine stops working, so for example i've ssh'ed into it or vnc and I switch input to my cable box ssh stops responding and i lose the teamviewer connection | 01:36 |
| artichoku | ahahaha i mean actionparsnip: | 01:37 |
| haylo | il check it out ActionParsnip | 01:37 |

| ar0nic | richard3 have you tried disabling the device before removing hdmi? | 01:37 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: it makes the java command point to the updated file | 01:37 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: can you paste me the output of this sudo parted -l /dev/hda | 01:37 |
| richard3 | disabling what device? | 01:37 |
| Jatinder | my only motive is to prepare lightweight ubuntu for my home desktop which is quite older | 01:37 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: sure | 01:37 |
| ar0nic | the hdmi output | 01:37 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: tried bluefish? | 01:37 |
| jeremiah_ | <ActionParsnip> oh | 01:37 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: im running the irc client thru terminal so ill be back | 01:38 |
| ar0nic | you can disable whatever monitors in x0rg | 01:38 |
| arek | malo nas :D | 01:38 |
| haylo | yo used an ubuntu netinstall ActionParsnip ? | 01:38 |
| richard3 | like my computer is connected to my tv via hdmi, when i switch inputs to the tv channels i lose connection | 01:38 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: yes, i'm messed around with it for hours upon hours | 01:38 |
| almoxarife | richard3: ssh cant be effected by hdmi | 01:38 |
| ActionParsnip | jeremiah_: you can always run the lines one by one yourself | 01:38 |
| artichoku | adobe kicks it's ass | 01:38 |
| artichoku | well, macromedia | 01:38 |
| ar0nic | wait when you switch inputs on the tv, or change the channel? | 01:38 |
| artichoku | then adobe took it over | 01:38 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: probably only due to familiarity... | 01:38 |
| opdynamiks | I'm a web developer (PHP/mysql/javascript) still on 10.10. Should I upgrade to 11.10 or will there be detrimental productivity effects? | 01:38 |
| almoxarife | opdynamiks: dont do it | 01:39 |
| richard3 | almoxarife its pretty easy to test, i do ls when video output is on, i switch out to the cable box, i cant do ls, and then my ssh connection times out | 01:39 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Hello, I'm new to command line linux - IE: Ubuntu 10.04 SERVER. I'm setting up a webserver to host my own web pages and email. I followed the following tutroial -- http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-2 --- I'm stuck on the installing ISPConfig2. I have the ISPConfig-2.2.40.tar.gz file on CD, but I don't know how to access the CD from the command line to unpack and install the file. Ca | 01:39 |
| DaveInKewaskum | n someone inform me how to access the file to be installed that is on my CD ROM , from the command line? | 01:39 |
| haylo | opdynamiks, dont do it if you need the comp for your business | 01:39 |
| rtorto | acerimmer:No not yet but I've figured out it's an ALSA problem. ALSA doesn't see all of my outputs | 01:39 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: install gnuscreen my man screen is god | 01:39 |
| somsip | opdynamiks: you may get updated PHP, Apache binaries, but you may not enjoy the new interface | 01:39 |
| almoxarife | richard3: switch out? | 01:39 |
| ActionParsnip | opdynamiks: maverick is EOL soon, so I would upgrade if you need updates and security fixes | 01:39 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: well the BIG reason is because all of the adobe stuff works with the other adobe stuff. so i have flash and fireworks, imports perfectly into dreamweaver, built in sql db for testing | 01:39 |
| acerimmer | rtorto: that's some progress... | 01:39 |
| artichoku | there's just alot of synergy by using adobe | 01:39 |

| opdynamiks | somsip, I noticed Unity seems to be mouse heavy but could it also be keyboard friendly | 01:40 |
| richard3 | well when the tv starts displaying the cable box and not the ubuntu box its effectively not using the hdmi and thus switching out right? | 01:40 |
| * Bsims takes a guess as to areks language and thinks polish? | 01:40 | |
| almoxarife | richard3: cable? would that be the same cable the network is connected to? | 01:40 |
| somsip | opdynamiks: I'm a web developer and as soon as I encountered Unity I switched to Awesom WM which is geared very much around keyboard. Each to their own, but be aware. | 01:40 |
| richard3 | okay i just tested it, i can no longer ping the box after i switch to the cable box | 01:41 |
| almoxarife | artichoku: no need to share | 01:41 |
| richard3 | no when i say cable i mean like u know comedy channel, tv cable | 01:41 |

| DaveInKewaskum | Hello, I'm new to command line linux - IE: Ubuntu 10.04 SERVER. I'm setting up a webserver to host my own web pages and email. I followed the following tutroial -- http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-2 --- I'm stuck on the installing ISPConfig2. I have the ISPConfig-2.2.40.tar.gz file on CD, but I don't know how to access the CD from the command line to unpack and install the file. Ca | 01:45 |
| DaveInKewaskum | n someone inform me how to access the file to be installed that is on my CD ROM , from the command line? | 01:45 |
| almoxarife | richard3: the box is running ubuntu? the one you are ssh'ing into to? | 01:45 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: way I read this... there is nothing there... but one 160gb ntfs drive | 01:45 |
| richard3 | almoxarife yeah ubuntu 11 | 01:45 |
| Bsims | ububtu has not been installed to that drive | 01:45 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: man i would love if adobe ported to linux | 01:45 |
| urlin2u | Bsims, you familiar with wubi? | 01:45 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: but I'm somehow running ubuntu and have added files to it | 01:45 |
| shadowman0 | and can run xp | 01:45 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: and can run xp | 01:46 |
| almoxarife | richard3: how about the easy ones? look at the logs? syslog ? | 01:46 |
| artichoku | i'm really surprised that more companies don't. linux is ALOT bigger than it used to be | 01:46 |
| kyan | I figured out how to fix the 'flash with grey box' issue caused by rgba in Maverick. The answer is: the solution is to add the following two lines to ~/.profile: 'export GTK_MODULES=rgba' and 'export GTK_RGBA_APPS="allbut:firefox-bin:firefox:plugin-container:gnome-mplayer:dia:<unknown>:exe"'. !!! :-D | 01:46 |
| * kyan is happy | 01:46 | |
| artichoku | and it's not just nerds that use it anymore | 01:46 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: you can add files to a running live cd | 01:46 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: we can hope | 01:46 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: this ins't a cd though | 01:46 |
| urlin2u | shadowman0, you install from XP looks like a wubi. | 01:46 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: never really was | 01:46 |
| Ben64 | DaveInKewaskum: could you simplify that wall of text a bit? | 01:46 |
| shadowman0 | urlin2u: yeah someone already said that.. didn't understand it the first time either | 01:47 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: mostly, people were just ignorant of anything different | 01:47 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: wierd running the thing that lets you install it on a existing windows install? | 01:47 |
| urlin2u | shadowman0, if you install ubuntu from XP it is called a wubi it is a file in XP. | 01:47 |
| urlin2u | !wubi | 01:47 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 01:47 |
| Bsims | you have no native linux partitions on that drive | 01:47 |
| richard3 | almoxarife heres a dmesg output of the event http://pastebin.com/B8ttKn3j | 01:47 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: so am I okay? what's the verdict? | 01:48 |
| urlin2u | !wubi > shadowman0 | 01:48 |
| ubottu | shadowman0, please see my private message | 01:48 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: ain't that the truth! given, linux still isn't quite to the point that it can be easily used by the average user | 01:48 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: Using Ubuntu 10.04 SERVER, I have a tarball file on CD that I need to install. How do I access the CD-ROM from the command line? | 01:48 |
| jnylen | !wubi > jnylen | 01:48 |
| ubottu | jnylen, please see my private message | 01:48 |
| artichoku | very VERY few people in front of a command line | 01:48 |
| Bsims | you is Ok its a file on windows | 01:48 |
| shadowman0 | ubottu: yes I got that | 01:48 |
| ubottu | shadowman0: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:48 |
| Russian | Hello everyone =] | 01:48 |
| urlin2u | shadowman0, if you do not have another HD you have a wubi install. | 01:48 |
| almoxarife | richard3: hdmi not the issue, is the issue losing ssh connection? | 01:48 |
| Ben64 | DaveInKewaskum: you can mount it... but you couldn't grab the file from the internet? | 01:48 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: i gave it to my girlfriends mum who works in Asda and my grandad and they have no issues | 01:49 |
| richard3 | almoxarife yeah but i cant see anything relevant in syslog | 01:49 |
| Bsims | it will do everything you could want it to do, but the file system is ntfs vs ext3 | 01:49 |
| Russian | What version of Ubuntu are you guys using? | 01:49 |
| jnylen | urlin2u: when installing via wubi, 1) do you have to reboot to use linux? and 2) can it manipulate your windows files? | 01:49 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: i recon' if they don't have to mess with terminal they'd be ok | 01:49 |
| Bsims | I am running one rev behind current | 01:49 |
| artichoku | as long as they don't have to break out sudo apt-get | 01:49 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: so should I just keep this? I mean it's perfectly fine.. everything works | 01:49 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: plus I get to use all the space on the windows part right? | 01:50 |
| almoxarife | richard3: well, you seem to know what is relevant and what is not, good luck | 01:50 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: I can, again, I would need to figure out the command line text to do it. Looking up the file URL now. | 01:50 |
| Bsims | then keep it... if its ever a problem, shrink the windows partition and install it native | 01:50 |
| Bsims | yes | 01:50 |
| shadowman0 | bsims: that is sexy. thank you my good man | 01:50 |
| Ben64 | DaveInKewaskum: mount -t <filesystem> <device> <mountpoint> | 01:50 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: I'm NEW - NEW - to the command line ... been using Ubuntu desktop for years though | 01:50 |
| urlin2u | jnylen, yes on the reboot, both OS are accessible from either, not considered a long term install though for use just a try before a full install a dual boot. | 01:50 |
| Bsims | shadowman0: np | 01:50 |
| richard3 | almoxarife well the last message relates to a system ugprade i did, like the action of switching outputs doesnt add anything to the logs, any other file i could check? | 01:50 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: web browsing is the main flavour, ubuntu does that well. Even picked up her Epson SX115 printer scanner with no extra drivers. Had a bit of pain with it in Jaunty but Oneiric is great with it | 01:51 |
| jnylen | urlin2u: I'd love to replace cygwin with something like that, I think there was a project that let you run both simultaneously but I forget the name | 01:51 |
| * Bsims does a double take... I have now been running Linux as my sole OS for 12 years now | 01:51 | |
| Bsims | <--- Old | 01:51 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: wow it hates my printer, lol | 01:51 |
| urlin2u | jnylen, there was one but not really a project that is kept up a virtual would be the next option. | 01:51 |
| almoxarife | the asl crap belongs ???????????????? not here! | 01:52 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: what you got? | 01:52 |
| Bsims | artichoku: what kind of printer is it? | 01:52 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: canon mx360 | 01:52 |
| artichoku | and bsims* | 01:52 |
| jnylen | urlin2u, what was that called again?? | 01:52 |
| Bsims | so long as it speaks some form of pcl/ps drivers doesn't matter | 01:52 |
| vite | question, I know installing a GUI on a server is not orthodox. But if I only start the xserver on a need bases. once I turn of the xserver will the gui security issues shut off? | 01:52 |
| urlin2u | jnylen, I was trying to remember I can't lol. :D | 01:52 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: OK, I have the URL for where the file is online, what command line command(s) do I use to download and install the file? | 01:53 |
| jnylen | urlin2u, Cooperative Linux ( colinux.org ) | 01:53 |
| Bsims | vite: yup, and the issues are mostly not an issue compaired with other os's | 01:53 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: FYI, the URL is --- http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ispconfig/ISPConfig-2.2.40.tar.gz?download | 01:53 |
| Bsims | artichoku: http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2011/06/download-install-canon-printer-driver.html | 01:54 |
| urlin2u | jnylen, think I was thinking of even another I forget though. | 01:54 |
| urlin2u | I | 01:54 |
| jnylen | user mode linux? | 01:54 |
| artichoku | woot?! | 01:54 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: there is a driver on the canon site, have you tried it? | 01:54 |
| richard3 | almoxarife i think i found something, simply the act of unplugging the hdmi cable doesnt do anything to the machine so it must be something else thanks for ur help | 01:54 |
| Sach | can someone help me with installing a driver on ubuntu 11.04 for an HP printer? | 01:55 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: i haven't really messed with it, it just didn't come up like my hp printer did the first time i tried ubuntu | 01:55 |
| Bsims | artichoku: tl;dr version want it to work flawlessly with Linux, make sure it speaks pcl or ps | 01:55 |
| artichoku | it speaks pcl and ps | 01:56 |
| Ben64 | DaveInKewaskum: wget, but you'd want to use the direct link | 01:56 |
| artichoku | so i think that will work great, ty bsims | 01:56 |
| urlin2u | Sach, you look in printers to see if one is there? | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: there is a file for the printing, one for the scanner, both 32bit and 64bit debs,.... | 01:56 |
| Bsims | artichoku: then tell cups its a ps/pcl printer | 01:56 |
| Bsims | for the scanner look up sane | 01:56 |
| artichoku | awesome | 01:56 |
| artichoku | you guys are great | 01:56 |
| vite | bsims is the ubuntu 11.10 server more stable than the desktop version for a workstation type of enviroment? | 01:56 |
| Bsims | sane is the backend for all scanner software | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Bsims: there are drivers on the canon site, so once installed it will work | 01:56 |
| artichoku | and as soon as the lappy's upgrade is done, hopefully we can get wireless working correctly | 01:57 |
| artichoku | i'll die without aircrack | 01:57 |
| Bsims | vite: server is the same as desktop without X. | 01:57 |
| Sach | urlin2u, yes, i did that.... I just need some help understanding the instructions on the HP webpage for my selected driver | 01:57 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: So from root, I would type -- wget <the url> | 01:57 |
| Bsims | vite: or thats my understanding | 01:57 |
| vite | well I saw the desktop doesnt let you have lvm or encrypted lvm | 01:57 |
| vite | the encrypted drive was the nice part. | 01:57 |
| Bsims | it can be installed after the fact | 01:58 |
| vite | lol, ok server with fluxbox lighter than desktop with unity | 01:58 |
| vite | and a lot less dependancies I think | 01:58 |
| urlin2u | Sach, I would post a link to that with your question as well probably, I assume the ubuntu provided driver is not working, or you may not know the correct setup. | 01:58 |
| Bsims | vite: yes, though most modern apps will depend on gtk(gnome) or qt(kde) at least for the libararies, and lets face it disk space is cheap | 01:59 |
| ActionParsnip | vite: yes but still runs an X server on a server... | 01:59 |
| Sach | urlin2u, thanks will do that. It asks me to download a .run file to desktop, then to open terminal and type cd Desktop. However, this command generates 'no such file or directory" | 01:59 |
| Bsims | Sach: try cd /home/UserName/Desktop | 02:00 |
| Ben64 | DaveInKewaskum: yes, and you should use quotes around the url when it has strange characters in it | 02:00 |
| Bsims | DaveInKewaskum: including embeded spaces | 02:00 |
| urlin2u | Sach, Bsims got it foer you. | 02:00 |
| vite | I have noticed its seems to run smoother | 02:00 |
| urlin2u | for | 02:00 |
| Bsims | urlin2u: eh story of my life | 02:01 |
| vite | I dont like the sudo halt -p command but it seems faster | 02:01 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: is your ubuntu 64bit? I can give dropbox links for the debs if you want... | 02:01 |
| Sach | Bsims, you rock! it works! | 02:01 |
| urlin2u | Bsims, we do cleanup here to. :D | 02:01 |
| Sach | urlin2u, thanks too! :) | 02:01 |
| goddard | can you video chat with empathy using Google Talk? | 02:01 |
| urlin2u | Sach, np. | 02:01 |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64, ok, let me try that. | 02:01 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: just installed the one bsims sent me. worked perfectly!!!! big thanks to both of you | 02:01 |
| acerimmer | goddard: yes | 02:01 |
| * Bsims considers making my backup script gui just for the fun of it | 02:02 | |
| goddard | acerimmer: cool | 02:02 |
| Bsims | I mean its just straight rsync | 02:02 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: simple times dude, Canon's support isn't bad these days. Kodak still refuse to support Linux | 02:02 |
| acerimmer | ActionParsnip: and Kodak has declared bankruptcy - coincidence? | 02:03 |
| jimlay | I don't want to make waves, but I've been through the forums and google and all I can find is bitching and no solutions. Unity makes my computer virtually unusable. What are people actually using? -- I've installed gnome classic, gnome plain, awesome, enlightement etc. They all come with terrible defaults. -- Is there something that works out of the box and isn't ugly? | 02:03 |
| artichoku | actionparsnip: screw kodak anyway. i haven't cared for kodak since they stopped making true black and white film | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | acerimmer: really, wow | 02:03 |
| * Bsims is happy with my samsung... replaced a toddler sized HP LJ4+P | 02:03 | |
| hopstafarian | hi all..been a while...took the plunge on my work system and upgraded from maverick to oneiric..the one drawback, is that my vaio backlit kb didn't work out of the box..found a cli string that activates it, but now looking for where i can add it so that it is added into the boot sequence? | 02:03 |
| Bsims | kinda wish I still had it for the geek cred | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | i always buy HP, HPLIP is fantastic | 02:04 |
| urlin2u | yeah | 02:04 |
| Bsims | ActionParsnip: lol this thing weighed literaly 75lbs | 02:04 |
| hopstafarian | jimlay, i like the gnome3 gnome-shell | 02:04 |
| richard3 | almoxarife i figured it out u'll never guess what it was | 02:05 |
| Bsims | lj4+ with 64megs of ram, seperate ps card and 10 meg jetdirect and ps | 02:05 |
| Bsims | gave it to a youth boxing club | 02:05 |
| Bsims | and duplexer | 02:05 |
| artichoku | 18 more minutes! | 02:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Bsims: Deskjet 940C here, works great. SHared via Samba | 02:05 |
| Bsims | ActionParsnip: Samsung ML-2850D drivers from foomatic | 02:06 |
| artichoku | i'm watching the details on the upgrade. LOTS of error adding /etc/ssl/certs/*** | 02:07 |
| artichoku | hope those don't matter | 02:07 |
| Bsims | artichoku: the real test is after reboot | 02:08 |
| artichoku | bsims: true so true | 02:08 |
| Bsims | thats why I am one rev behind all the bugs have been hunted down and shot | 02:08 |
| jimlay | hopstafarian: Is the gnome3 different than 3.2? | 02:08 |
| Bsims | and with backports I don't miss too much | 02:08 |
| walid_ | Salut | 02:09 |
| * Bsims grrs ubuntu doesn't have apt-report-bugs | 02:10 | |
| DaveInKewaskum | Ben64: I didn't think I'd get it with that URL because it has a -delay- in downloading for advertizing. I COULD upload to a file storage / sharing site and download it with the server from there. Any sugestion where I could upload it to? | 02:10 |
| walid_ | Hi | 02:10 |
| Bsims | shows you open bug tickets before you upgrade | 02:10 |
| mistform | I'm using Xchat. What is the command to show channels list in another window? /list just shows everything on the server tab | 02:10 |
| walid_ | Hi | 02:10 |
| ActionParsnip | !alis | 02:11 |

| acerimmer | walid:greetings. what's state your issue. | 02:11 |
| * Bsims used to run sid, it was almost a requirement in the days of the 2.4.0 kernel | 02:11 | |
| walid_ | you speak frensh ?? | 02:11 |

| hopstafarian | jimlay, not to my ignorant eye..i'm actually on 3.2...but i wanted to differentiate it from the gnome2 version of gnome-shell..i didn't read back very far, so not sure if it's what you're looking for..but unity was usable but a little onerous for me..and the new gnome-shell works well for how i work..thought i'd mention | 02:11 |
| walid_ | merci | 02:12 |
| Bsims | though the waranty was if it broke you got to keep both halves | 02:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Bsims: it still is | 02:12 |
| mistform | this is driving me insane trying to get Ubuntu (or even Windows for that) to copy 2 .jpg's from a Canon digital cam (Powershot A550) | 02:12 |
| jimlay | hopstafarian: thanks. I think I'm just going to have to go back to my roots and spend some time customizing one of the old reliables. :) | 02:13 |
| acerimmer | mistform: more info | 02:13 |
| Bsims | ActionParsnip: lol only reason I got started with Ubuntu is at the time you literaly could not install sid, and ubuntu was close sid for software version | 02:13 |
| hopstafarian | hmm...hopefully is not something that has to be compiled into the kernel..hoping it was something like a windows config.sys file or such | 02:13 |
| Bsims | that was christ warthog days | 02:13 |
| mistform | acerimmer, I can't copy any photos from this camera. It gives me an error and a list of random commands. I guess Canon made their cameras *look* like USB mass storage devices even though they are *NOT* | 02:14 |
| hopstafarian | jimlay, sure..."roots" being, out of curiousity? | 02:14 |
| Bsims | mistform: try pluging in the card direct into a card reader | 02:14 |
| artichoku | 12 minutes omg omg omg slooooooowwwwwww | 02:14 |
| mistform | acerimmer, I installed gtkam and it gives me the same problem | 02:14 |
| acerimmer | mistform: how old is the camera? And do you have the canon driver software? | 02:14 |
| hopstafarian | jimlay, or could just spell curiosity correctly...lol... | 02:14 |
| artichoku | i haven't turned this thing on in a year and a half | 02:14 |
| * Bsims giggles and yanks artichoku's connection at 30 seconds to go | 02:15 | |
| mistform | Bsims, I don't have a card reader | 02:15 |
| MK` | I just bought a 2GB usb flash drive, is it safe to format that to ext4 or should I leave it as FAT? | 02:15 |
| artichoku | awwww cry!!!! | 02:15 |
| Bsims | mistform: ah Ok whats the camera so we know what to avoid | 02:15 |
| mistform | acerimmer, no software. I even tried the canon website to no avail (though I spent about 5 frustrated minutes and decided to look elsewhere) | 02:15 |
| artichoku | mk: might as well leave it as fat | 02:15 |
| acerimmer | MK`: leave it at fat for use in any computer. | 02:15 |
| mistform | Bsims, it's old. it's a powershot A550. | 02:15 |
| Bsims | Ok | 02:15 |
| mistform | Bsims, but I do suggest avoiding all Canon cameras anyway | 02:15 |
| artichoku | the laptop specs really aren't that bad, i'm just so used to the desktop | 02:16 |
| artichoku | it's got a dual core 2.3 ghz amd and 4gb of ram | 02:16 |
| Bsims | mistform: newegg... card readers are 15 bucks, though I like cannon glass | 02:16 |
| artichoku | the desktop is just soooo much faster, i have no patients for the thing anymore | 02:16 |
| acerimmer | mistform: I'm concerned that neither windows/ubuntu can read this thing. Seems there's some proprietary stuff preventing cross platform use. Suggest you see if you can get a live person on canon-chat to help. | 02:16 |
| artichoku | patience* | 02:16 |
| jimlay | hopstafarian: afterstep circa '97. I'm probably going to go back to sawfish. I used to hack window managers back in college around a decade ago. | 02:16 |

| Bsims | I actually sold a print of that picture | 02:17 |
| jimlay | hopstafarian: Ubuntu has just almost always had such great defaults I stopped customizing. | 02:17 |
| acerimmer | mistform: can you canon-copy the pics to a memory card. | 02:17 |
| weiland | I couldn't talk in #linux | 02:17 |
| Bsims | ya registered with nickserv weiland? | 02:17 |
| weiland | No | 02:18 |
| Bsims | that may be the problem | 02:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Bsims: I just tried it, I used to use mandrake but always distro hopped. It all worked (albeit slower), so I stayed. I use xpud more these days | 02:18 |
| Bsims | ran into that myself | 02:18 |
| mistform | acerimmer, bsims was just suggesting placing the memcard into the card reader... the non existent reader is slightly less functional than a real one that I don't have. | 02:18 |
| weiland | Where do you do that? I'm still trying to get into irc | 02:18 |

| mistform | acerimmer, honestly, I can't even close the Filebrowser that has the pictures open. I still have a file operations that is trying to transfer 2 photos without success. | 02:19 |
| acerimmer | mistform: have you tried CLI terminal? | 02:19 |
| Bsims | giant picture warning... http://home.comcast.net/~bmsims1/pano.jpg got to love photostich... its a script that does 2d panoramics | 02:20 |
| mistform | acerimmer, you mean just copy file via terminal? | 02:20 |
| acerimmer | mistform: yes. | 02:20 |
| mistform | Bsims, did you do any editing to the tree pic? it looks amazing | 02:20 |
| Bsims | all done with free software, gimp and panostitch | 02:20 |
| Bsims | mistform: converted from color with gimp, and tinting in gimp | 02:21 |
| Bsims | mistform: platinum filter in gimp | 02:21 |
| mistform | Bsims, I dislike unnatural color changes like with brushes and stuff. I'd just as well take the pic in black and white 35mm and leave it as it is. | 02:21 |
| Bsims | eh I was playing, the photo was all manual and well it sold | 02:22 |
| Stereocaulon | Bsims, wow, beautiful picture there. Love trees in autumn | 02:22 |

| Stereocaulon | Bsims, well I've tried the tested method of 1) renaming the repos to karmic, mounting the karmic iso and running cdinstall. The procedure failed because ubuntu could not authenticate a massive slew of packets (probably) all. | 02:29 |
| hydrox24 | neatbook: you probably need a true multi-touch trackpad for that | 02:29 |
| artichoku | ok can i have that custom driver link again? | 02:30 |
| hydrox24 | neatbook: synaptics trackpads only support 1 & sometimes 2 fingers. | 02:30 |

| ActionParsnip | Stereocaulon: thanks for pitching in. I'd always clean install anyways | 02:32 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: unload and reload the driver module | 02:32 |
| hydrox24 | artichoku: is there a disable/enable function key on your laptop? | 02:32 |

| Stereocaulon | ActionParsnip, I love to help, but it became a *very* lengthy session; 5 hours straight. | 02:32 |
| Bsims | Stereocaulon: then install from new and restore from backup.. worst case delete the kde/gnome home dir and let it recreate it | 02:33 |
| artichoku | ahydrox24: yes there is, i turned it off and back on, but the touchpad didn't come back on | 02:33 |
| artichoku | i'll reboot | 02:33 |
| hydrox24 | silentshadow logged off after asking a Q... | 02:33 |
| Stereocaulon | urlin2u, I know that but the described methods for the upgrade of 9.04 don't work anymore. | 02:33 |
| ActionParsnip | artichoku: try the module | 02:33 |
| Bsims | its a crap answer but one that works | 02:33 |
| hydrox24 | artichoku: that's the way to go I'd say | 02:33 |
| artichoku | trying now | 02:33 |
| artichoku | i mean it worked when it rebooted | 02:34 |
| urlin2u | Stereocaulon, really hmm have not heard that. | 02:34 |
| artichoku | then i opened the browser and it stopped | 02:34 |
| Stereocaulon | Bsims, that's exactly why I taught him to zip his /home dir and split it. | 02:34 |
| Bsims | yup can I share my rsync script? | 02:34 |
| psyrus | can someone help me install intel hd 3000 linux drivers? | 02:34 |
| ActionParsnip | psyrus: they are in a default install | 02:35 |
| Stereocaulon | urlinu, try it for yourself, in a virtual machine, using a clean install of 9.04, when you follow the instructions to the letter it will still fail. | 02:35 |
| artichoku | omg i need some help a sec. i forgot how to do stuff when it has a makefile | 02:35 |
| Stereocaulon | urlin2u, try it for yourself, in a virtual machine, using a clean install of 9.04, when you follow the instructions to the letter it will still fail. | 02:35 |
| psyrus | it iinsalled some kinda generic drivers, i dont actually see my specific video card listed | 02:35 |
| neatbook | hey | 02:35 |
| neatbook | how do you check if given input is a folder or a file? | 02:36 |
| urlin2u | Stereocaulon, I will take your word on it. :D | 02:36 |

| Stereocaulon | artichoku, just enter the source directory and type make install | 02:36 |
| hydrox24 | psyrus: using what tool to list the drivers? | 02:36 |
| neatbook | that returns a value so that i can use if function? | 02:36 |

| artichoku | still didn't show up in the network manager | 03:22 |

| hydrox24 | Geodesical: really? so if you lost EVERYTHING on your computer then that's totally fine? | 03:24 |
| osd1000 | I wonder whats going to know whats coming up on ubuntu 12.04 | 03:24 |
| Drone4four | I’m trying to reinstall grub after a fresh install of Slackware which uses Lilo. Using my LiveCD, I tried using the commands update-grub2 and grub-install but I get the same error: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?). | 03:24 |
| hydrox24 | osd1000: Do you mean who's going to know? | 03:24 |
| urlin2u | Geodesical, personally I think that is bad advice. | 03:24 |
| Geodesical | No, I just got the computer yesterday at a yard sale, they said they had it for a while with windows xp but the unplugged it for a while and it reset to Ubuntu 9.04. | 03:25 |
| hydrox24 | Drone4four: That means that it can't find the drive to install grub to... I think. | 03:25 |
| mistform | geodesical if you don't have any important stuff why not just try a fresh install? how long have you been running jaunty? | 03:25 |
| hydrox24 | Drone4four: I have come across that issue too. | 03:25 |
| urlin2u | Geodesical, you should do a fresh install you don't want another's OS. | 03:25 |
| hydrox24 | Geodesical: I would advise you to take the "fresh install" path too. | 03:25 |
| osd1000 | btw jaunty is outdated. try ubuntu 10.04 if you don't want a memory hogger | 03:25 |
| Geodesical | mistform: about a day. I had to backtrack into grub to get it to start booting normally. | 03:26 |
| Drone4four | hydrox24: did you by chance come up with a remedy? | 03:26 |
| === artaschasa is now known as Lyo_Valois | ||
| mistform | I believe majority has voted "Fresh Install". Burn another CD or do the flash drive install. | 03:26 |
| urlin2u | Geodesical, fresh install about 20 min. | 03:26 |
| osd1000 | if you want a fresh install don't use wubi | 03:27 |
| linocisco | Hello all | 03:27 |
| Geodesical | I've tried to burn a cd, it refuses to allow me to open any programs if a cd is in the drive. as for a memory key, 2GB is too small, that's all I have. | 03:27 |
| linocisco | I would like to know which recovery software is best for formatted drive's NTFS partition | 03:28 |
| osd1000 | Try memory expansion. | 03:28 |
| osd1000 | by that | 03:28 |
| osd1000 | i mean taking the computer appart | 03:28 |
| osd1000 | finding the RAM slots | 03:28 |
| maZed_ | Geodesical, you try a network install? | 03:28 |
| Geodesical | is there any way to fresh install directly from Ubuntu or another site to bypass the cd/memory key thingy? | 03:28 |
| osd1000 | well you could try puppy linux | 03:28 |
| Geodesical | maZed; never heard of it. | 03:28 |
| renegade_m | hi, how can i download driver for my atheros wireless card | 03:28 |
| hydrox24 | Drone4four: Unfortunately it was far too long ago, and I think the error occured using a different program | 03:28 |
| renegade_m | in ubuntu 8.10 | 03:28 |
| acerimmer | !eol|renegade_m | 03:29 |
| ubottu | renegade_m: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 03:29 |
| urlin2u | renegade_m, 8.10 is end of life not supported. | 03:29 |
| renegade_m | really? | 03:29 |
| hydrox24 | Geodesical: No simple way, your computer needs something to boot from while the new OS is written to your internal frive | 03:29 |
| renegade_m | i see.. | 03:29 |
| renegade_m | thank you guys for the info.. | 03:29 |
| osd1000 | btw ubuntu 8.10 is very old | 03:29 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: that was a bot | 03:29 |
| osd1000 | i suggest upgrading to ubuntu 10.04 | 03:30 |
| renegade_m | but then, does it mean I can never use my 8.10 anymore? | 03:30 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: but We all would recommend upgrading if you can | 03:30 |
| osd1000 | or 11.10 | 03:30 |
| renegade_m | i like 8.10 | 03:30 |
| renegade_m | i can't load with 11.10 | 03:30 |
| osd1000 | well theres aways backup | 03:30 |
| osd1000 | backup your apps... | 03:30 |
| renegade_m | i cant boot | 03:30 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: no, but technically channels like this shouldn't spend time supporting older EOT releases | 03:30 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: that's fine | 03:30 |
| osd1000 | try ubuntu 10.04 | 03:30 |
| renegade_m | does 10.04 supports atheros? | 03:30 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: We will probably help you anyway | 03:30 |
| acerimmer | renegade_m: there some reason you can't upgrade past 8.10??? | 03:31 |
| renegade_m | thank you..:) | 03:31 |
| osd1000 | check on google. | 03:31 |
| Geodesical | hydrox24; I see. isn't grub like a mini-OS (like DOS on a Windows)? | 03:31 |
| hydrox24 | renegade_m: The newest ubuntus support almost all normal Wifi chips | 03:31 |
| renegade_m | i like it's speed in booting.. | 03:31 |
| renegade_m | i can't boot good with 11.10 | 03:31 |
| urlin2u | renegade_m, you tapping a f12 at powering on to get a boot from gui or setting the boot from the bios. | 03:31 |
| hydrox24 | Geodesical: Not sure, I think it is somewhat like that, however a bootloader IS something in and of itself | 03:31 |
| renegade_m | infact i never successful in 11.10 booting the live cd. | 03:31 |
| acerimmer | renegade_m: try a lighter version of ubuntu like lubuntu or xubuntu. | 03:31 |
| osd1000 | try booting in 10.04 | 03:31 |
| urlin2u | renegade_m, black screen? | 03:31 |
| osd1000 | if that doesn't work | 03:31 |
| artichoku | ok acerimmer, sta just won't work | 03:32 |
| renegade_m | I know how to boot. what I mean, is successfull booting.. I end on shell alwys. | 03:32 |
| osd1000 | try xubuntu. if that fails use lubuntu | 03:32 |
| artichoku | so i went to bcm43 fwcutter drivers | 03:32 |
| maZed_ | Couldnt he just do a network bootloader that requires 35 megs, and do a network install? | 03:32 |
| renegade_m | yes black screen after waiting. | 03:32 |
| artichoku | now the wireless works | 03:32 |
| urlin2u | !nomodeset | renegade_m | 03:32 |
| ubottu | renegade_m: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 03:32 |
| tweet | 11.10 grub2 is giving me problems... he generated grub.cfg is not reflected on the boot menu... I have a separate home partition - can that cause all this? | 03:32 |
| acerimmer | artichoku: sorry. we tried. | 03:32 |
| artichoku | but i know i'm going to have an issue with mon0 | 03:32 |
| artichoku | i appreciate all of your help | 03:32 |
| osd1000 | arti try ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS first. if that doesn't work use lubuntu or xubuntu | 03:32 |
| artichoku | i gotta hit up the wireshark and aircrack guys | 03:32 |
| artichoku | maybe they can shed some light | 03:32 |
| artichoku | i wish i could find my other laptop | 03:33 |
| Geodesical | hydrox24: good point. Well, appreciated, thank you all. | 03:33 |
| artichoku | it used atheros drivers | 03:33 |
| artichoku | question: i was using 64bith OS with 9.10 before. this time i'm running 32 bit | 03:34 |
| artichoku | what kind of difference would that make? | 03:34 |
| osd1000 | the first ubuntu version i used was like i dunno like 9.10 or 10.04 | 03:34 |
| tweet | can anyone suggest me something on that ? | 03:34 |
| osd1000 | or 9.04. | 03:34 |
| lucksmith | hi | 03:34 |
| lucksmith | how could I recover formatted NTFS partition?? | 03:35 |
| urlin2u | lucksmith, you erase it whats the situation? | 03:35 |
| osd1000 | no way | 03:35 |
| osd1000 | unless you have backups of your hard drive | 03:35 |
| artichoku | afk | 03:35 |
| osd1000 | otherwise you have to install windows 2000 | 03:35 |
| osd1000 | or buy a retail box from the store | 03:36 |
| osd1000 | windows xp or 7.. | 03:36 |

| urlin2u | lucksmith, has the other OS been run and how much if so. | 03:37 |
| lucksmith | urlin2u: I also deleted that OS | 03:38 |
| lucksmith | urlin2u: now it is unbootable system disk | 03:38 |
| maZed_ | just get the install disc and do a reinstall of the OS | 03:38 |
| renegade_m | if for instance, I never go for an upgrade to 11.10, how do i install atheros to work in my ubuntu 8.10..:) if that is just ok.:) | 03:38 |
| hydrox24 | lucksmith: so the only data lost id OS data? not personals like Docs and Vids and Pics? | 03:39 |

I've removed /etc/cups/printers.conf* & /etc/cups/ppd & restarted the cups daemon, & able to use system-config-printer to find & set as default & successfully print a test page, but that's about it. when I try to create a duplicate or use the desktop's own tool so that I can alter settings, if all fall apart horribly. is anyone able | 04:11 |
| Russian | bazhang: That is the real question, I haven't been using Ubuntu for a long time, it seems a lot has changed, I am trying to figure out if Unity really is that bad and if I should go back to 10.04 | 04:12 |
| bazhang | goblinshark, wubi is inside of windows, not a true dual boot | 04:12 |
| goblinshark | so i dont need to download wubi | 04:12 |
| bazhang | Russian, thats not a real question; you really expect everyone in the channel to say what they are running? it varies from every supported version | 04:12 |
| bazhang | goblinshark, no you dont need wubi | 04:13 |
| goblinshark | whats wubi for then? | 04:13 |
| zykotick9 | !wubi | 04:13 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 04:13 |
| bazhang | goblinshark, a kind of test drive, not a true dual boot | 04:13 |
| Russian | bazhang: not sure if you replied, I accidentally closed irc client | 04:13 |
| goblinshark | k | 04:13 |
| goblinshark | thnx | 04:13 |
| bazhang | Russian, please ask a specific question. | 04:13 |
| Russian | bazhang: What Ubuntu version are you using? | 04:14 |
| jperez2012 | hello everyone :) | 04:14 |
| DotEXE | ^.^ | 04:14 |
| AsmCoder8088 | oh finally, a live channel | 04:14 |
| bazhang | Russian, did you have a support question? if so, please ask, and if someone knows they will answer | 04:14 |
| Russian | I am trying to establish what version of ubuntu to go with, just curious what other people are using | 04:16 |
| sunlifter | Russian- get the newest ;) | 04:16 |
| Russian | what version of ubunto do you use, for instance? | 04:16 |
| sunlifter | 11.11 now | 04:16 |
| MimosakaRyou | im on lucid | 04:16 |
| AsmCoder8088 | I'm using "Memphis" | 04:17 |
| sunlifter | *11.10 | 04:17 |

| === MrPen is now known as MrBatman | ||

| Russian | DotEXE: I tried Mint, didn't run too well for me | 04:20 |
| preludelinux | unity is not very nice to use .... but it is possible to change to many other desktops ... but it seems most of the big ones are all going somewhere most desktop users are still scratching there heads wondering why | 04:20 |
| sunlifter | And I prefer CL :) | 04:20 |
| DotEXE | Gnome 3 + MGSE looks doable though | 04:20 |

| flowerpot | I want to install git on Ubuntu 10.04 on EC2. I've run sudo apt-get update, but when I run sudo apt-get install git, I get this problem: http://pastebin.com/Sm4j0jJj | 04:40 |
| flowerpot | Is git not in the Ubuntu repos? | 04:40 |
| zykotick9 | cheapie: looks like links is capable of showing graphics without Xorg... How I Met Your Mother S04E24 The Leap.webm | 04:40 |

| Flannel | flowerpot: the package name is get-core | 04:41 |
| flowerpot | Flannel, in the future, what should I do to determine that on my own? | 04:42 |
| cheapie | flowerpot: Go to packages.ubuntu.com and search for "git" | 04:42 |
| flowerpot | Flannel, actually, apt-cache show get-core says that no packages were found | 04:43 |
| Flannel | flowerpot: `apt-cache search git` (a lot, you can grep for git though), and you'll notice (at the end, where its easy to see) that there's a bunch of git-foo, where foo is some other cvs (cvs, svn, email, etc) | 04:43 |
| Flannel | flowerpot: sorry, git-core | 04:43 |
| flowerpot | I see | 04:43 |
| Flannel | flowerpot: then apt-cache show git-foo (any one of them) will show you a dependency of git-core | 04:43 |
| Flannel | flowerpot: It looks like the package used to be called git, that was probably a monolithic package, and now it's split out into all the subpackages | 04:44 |
| flowerpot | Flannel, got it. Thanks! works now | 04:44 |
| magn3ts | sigh, why oh why is alsa's amixer not working in ubuntu | 04:46 |
| magn3ts | there are many many many posts describing that unmuting is borked | 04:46 |
| goblinshark | alright, got ubuntu iso ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso . burnt to a disc now run wubi? | 04:47 |
| bazhang | goblinshark, not wubi, no | 04:47 |
| refluxtumblr | so, i just installed ubuntu and it's asking for an admin password, even though i removed it from my account to make things easier for my tech inept dad | 04:47 |
| refluxtumblr | any ideas? | 04:47 |
| goblinshark | there is wubi.exe on it | 04:48 |
| goblinshark | what do i run | 04:48 |
| bazhang | goblinshark, boot with the installer disk in, and bios set to look for cd first | 04:48 |
| goblinshark | i cant read the readme | 04:48 |
| goblinshark | because it says README.diskdefines | 04:48 |
| tigrang | im on ubuntu 10.04.3 server. date and date -u show different times. How can I fix this? | 04:48 |
| Flannel | tigrang: what do you mean by 'fix'? that's not incorrect behavior | 04:49 |
| goblinshark | i cant run it from the disk | 04:51 |
| goblinshark | are u sure this is not going to delete windows? | 04:51 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: running wubi.exe will not delete windows. | 04:51 |
| goblinshark | he said not to run wubi | 04:51 |
| goblinshark | ? | 04:51 |
| refluxtumblr | it keeps coming up with an authentication error, even when i enter the admin password i set | 04:52 |
| goblinshark | im confused | 04:52 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: What is your ultimate goal? dual boot? or what? | 04:52 |
| goblinshark | dual boot | 04:52 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: with a standalone partition? or without repartitioning? | 04:52 |
| goblinshark | hmmm good question, im not really sure which do u think is best? | 04:52 |
| goblinshark | if it's dual boot is there really any need to partition? | 04:53 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: It depends on what you're hoping to achieve. If it's just "try Ubuntu", then wubi is a good choice. If you're looking to actually have two full-fledged OSs, you'll want to repartition and do a traditional dual boot. | 04:53 |
| goblinshark | whats the drawback of wubi? | 04:54 |
| Flannel | the entire Ubuntu filesystem sits inside your windows drive, so if anything happens to that partition, you'll lose both OSes. There is a small performance (disk IO) penalty, but it's not significant. | 04:55 |
| goblinshark | why can't have have two full-fledged OSs with wubi? | 04:55 |
| goblinshark | oic | 04:55 |
| goblinshark | so if it sits inside my windows drive can i have the option on bootup to select which OS I want to startup? | 04:56 |
| almoxarife | goblinshark: you can have two os's within wubi | 04:57 |
| junoip864 | new version? http://adf.ly/50eZt | 04:57 |
| goddard | any new icons you can install for ubuntu? | 04:57 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: Yes. Either way you do it, you choose the OS to boot at power on. | 04:57 |
| viru7 | faenze is cool | 04:57 |
| bazhang | junoip864, stop pasting that | 04:57 |
| artichoku | omg omg omg | 04:58 |
| artichoku | linux is pissin me off | 04:58 |
| goblinshark | can i have two os within windows | 04:58 |
| goblinshark | since windows was instlaled first? | 04:58 |
| artichoku | damn u updates messin' up my wireless drivers | 04:58 |
| almoxarife | goblinshark: you can have two os's within wubi | 04:59 |
| goblinshark | ? | 04:59 |
| goblinshark | windows is installed before wubi | 04:59 |
| almoxarife | goblinshark: who you talking to? | 04:59 |
| goblinshark | i'm not partitioning | 04:59 |
| viru7 | use virtualbox 1st that would help u get hands-on xperience with ubuntu and then go for complete install | 04:59 |
| goblinshark | u | 04:59 |
| almoxarife | goblinshark: then put my nick in the convo | 04:59 |
| magn3ts | Can anyone help me unmute my audio? amixer set Master unmute does not work. | 05:00 |
| goblinshark | almoxarife, i just want to try it out | 05:00 |
| Flannel | goblinshark: To install with wubi, run wubi.exe from within windows. | 05:00 |
| goblinshark | ok i want to partition | 05:00 |
| magn3ts | even though everything in alsamixer is unmuted, gnome-shell has the icon dimmed and the audio is inaudible. | 05:00 |
| almoxarife | goblinshark: you already have wubi installed? | 05:00 |

| dies_irae | why in the world I can have mplayer and mplayer2 installed at the same time??? | 05:05 |

| almoxarife | dies_irae: un-install mplayer2 | 05:06 |
| dies_irae | that's not the point. the point is having BOTH playing along. | 05:06 |
| almoxarife | hydrox24: and it does break mplayer | 05:06 |
| dies_irae | whever decided this one or the other gots to get fired from ubuntu!! | 05:06 |

| Kimble | Has btrfs been removed from the standard repos? | 05:42 |
| bobo37773 | libryder: Disconnect from internet. | 05:42 |
| libryder | i have a feeling my vps was hacked and i am trying to trace where the high bandwidth is coming from | 05:42 |
| BigTaxi | my ethernet port continuously disconnects and reconnects. it is an interesting problem | 05:42 |
| pazaco | bobo, will it run faster on USB drive or firewire??? | 05:42 |
| libryder | bobo37773: that would be pretty unwise considering it's a VPS | 05:42 |
| bobo37773 | pazaco: I don't know. Is it a one time install? | 05:43 |
| pazaco | i got it on a DVD image, wnat to install it on external something to play with it first | 05:44 |
| bobo37773 | libryder: Just giving you a hard time. Use "tcpkill" to kill tcp connections. It is part of the "dsniff" package | 05:44 |
| BigTaxi | please get to me when you can | 05:44 |
| pazaco | The idea with this disk is that i can use it repeatedly, so i'm not wanting to unlod it , dual boot my hd quite yet, not too sure about the distro | 05:45 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: Try assigning yourself a static ip address on your router and see if the problem persists. | 05:45 |
| BigTaxi | well its more complex than that | 05:46 |
| bobo37773 | ? | 05:46 |
| BigTaxi | the interet through the wireless is fine | 05:46 |
| BigTaxi | however, the ethernet cable to my xbox 360 doesnt work | 05:46 |
| BigTaxi | on my PC, it works fine | 05:46 |
| BigTaxi | and with the same exact settings on the laptop, it just flickers, connected, discon nected | 05:46 |
| sidvee | Hey! can someone tell me which one to download for 12.04 distro? I mean I cant think of anyone between Daily Build,Alpha 1 and daily-live. What is the difference between them? | 05:46 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: How is it more complicated? | 05:47 |
| BigTaxi | so with the PC, with ubuntu, the 360 gets bridged internet, on my laptop, same exact settings, it doesnt | 05:47 |

| BigTaxi | i'm just guessing it is something in the code somewhere. i'd just like the xbox to be more portable. | 05:48 |
| libryder | bobo37773: i think i am going to block a range of IP's... i've been averaging 5+mbps over the past day | 05:48 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: You are using computer as a gateway? Is that what you are saying? | 05:48 |
| BigTaxi | yes | 05:48 |
| BigTaxi | two, actually, but the one i want to work does not. | 05:48 |
| bobo37773 | libryder: In that case iptables is what you want to check out for sure. | 05:48 |
| libryder | i'm configuring moblock right now | 05:48 |
| BigTaxi | what command is that | 05:48 |
| Kimble | Can someone suggest a compressing fs that doesn't require a re-compiled kernel? | 05:48 |
| bobo37773 | libryder: iplist / ipblock is also pretty good. | 05:48 |
| overclucker | libryder: checkout iptables, too | 05:48 |
| BigTaxi | iplist command not found | 05:49 |
| BigTaxi | iptables asks if i wanted iptables -h | 05:49 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: I was talking to libryder | 05:49 |
| overclucker | then you want iptables -h | 05:49 |
| BigTaxi | oh. | 05:49 |
| sidvee | What is the difference between 1. http://goo.gl/VWV6 2. http://goo.gl/oy1N0 3. http://goo.gl/iAT1F | 05:50 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: Does it work if you only have one thing connected to your computer gateway? Just computer OR xbox? | 05:50 |
| BigTaxi | well, both computers connect to the wireless. only one functions successfully as a bridge. | 05:51 |
| BigTaxi | to the xbox | 05:51 |
| paijem | yes | 05:51 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: Oh, OK | 05:51 |
| bobo37773 | So, do you think it may be a configuration error? | 05:51 |
| libryder | moblock maintains a list of ip's/ranges to automatically block | 05:51 |

| BigTaxi | network connections is the name of the program, tbs | 05:54 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: Did you enable traffic forwarding? Also, did it ever work? | 05:55 |
| BigTaxi | how do you enable traffic forwarding? i ran across that online somewhere and entered it in the terminal, but there was no change | 05:56 |
| BigTaxi | actually, no recongition of anything happening at all | 05:56 |
| BigTaxi | yes, actually | 05:56 |
| BigTaxi | it worked halfway through a movie through the xbox | 05:56 |
| BigTaxi | and has been unrecoverable | 05:57 |
| BigTaxi | since | 05:57 |
| bobo37773 | Did you get the information on how to do this on the wiki? As in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 05:57 |
| pazaco | sidvee, the Alternate was suggested if you live where connections are slow or not available at the time | 05:57 |
| pazaco | that why i got that one | 05:57 |
| pazaco | or why it was suggested in an article i read somewhere | 05:58 |
| BigTaxi | the connection sharing isnt the problem, because right now the cord to the xbox, (eth1) isnt even sticking around to be interacted with | 05:58 |
| sidvee | pazaco: Sorry! But which one is the alternate? | 05:58 |
| BigTaxi | it just connects and disconnects | 05:58 |

| urlin2u | Sid9, the alpha is an image from dec 1 the daily is with all the updates. | 06:03 |
| bobo37773 | BigTaxi: Maybe you should try the method in the link I just sent you. | 06:03 |
| pazaco | normally alpha build means its full of bugs, beta is debugged, and etc., less buggy | 06:03 |
| urlin2u | sidvee, wron nic ^^ | 06:03 |
| BigTaxi | sudo killall dnsmasq? | 06:03 |
| BigTaxi | no dice, didn't work. | 06:03 |
| pazaco | sidvee, alpha is without updates then? | 06:04 |
| sidvee | pazaco: urlin2u what i understand is that, alpha 1 is a stable one. | 06:04 |

| North | I am a Windows XP person. | 06:24 |
| sidvee | urlin2u: eh! No. Explain to me again. I really want to know! | 06:24 |
| dc5ala | BigTaxi, just type in "cd" without parameters and it brings you back to your home directory, if that is what you mean | 06:24 |
| programmeduser | Nothings hard about Ubuntu! It's all just different :D | 06:24 |

| Ivoz | BigTaxi: did yuo try ctl+alt+f7 | 06:25 |
| programmeduser | Terminal = CMD | 06:25 |
| rere | north , you can se in cd /usr/bin | 06:25 |
| urlin2u | sidvee, basically your looking at a develop to be released the word stable is a bit of a misnomer to some extent, canonical who are the developers only consider a release after development to be stable basically. | 06:25 |
| Flannel | Ivoz: that won't get him there. | 06:25 |
| rere | north , you can se in cd /usr/sbin | 06:25 |
| BigTaxi | i dont want this to be some alt f4 shit that crashes my computer | 06:25 |
| North | no, it did not work | 06:25 |
| Ivoz | North: you need to open up a terminal | 06:25 |
| rere | Ivoz. ya | 06:26 |
| BigTaxi | but yes i dared to try | 06:26 |
| Flannel | BigTaxi: That's not, but it won't accomplish what you're hoping to do. | 06:26 |
| Flannel | BigTaxi: try 'exit' | 06:26 |
| rere | north you can see shell command in /usr/bin | 06:26 |
| Ivoz | BigTaxi: ctl+alt+f7 does not crash things, it brings you out of single user mode, afaik | 06:26 |
| BigTaxi | nope | 06:26 |
| BigTaxi | just a blank dollar sign | 06:26 |
| urlin2u | sidvee, I have used many development though that never broke so it is just best to be prepared for it breaking is I guess the general idea as well. | 06:26 |
| Ivoz | North: go to your applications and search for terminal | 06:27 |
| infid | what are the main problems with ubuntu 11.10? any show stoppers? | 06:27 |

| rere | Ivoz : yaya I'm Indonesian | 06:28 |
| programmeduser | Eep nvm. | 06:28 |
| sidvee | urlin2u: *goes off to download* | 06:28 |

| genewitch | BigTaxi: for your ISP or local network | 07:14 |
| neatbook | how do you only get a name of file from a given the full path? | 07:14 |
| neatbook | ex. /home/dsd.c | 07:15 |
| neatbook | how do u only get dsd.c using shell scripts? | 07:15 |
| BigTaxi | what are you referring to? | 07:15 |
| llutz_ | neatbook: basename <foo> | 07:15 |
| hydrox24 | neatbook: could you use sed to chop off all but the last little bit? | 07:15 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: the IP you typed in, does it start with 10, 172, or 192, or none of the above | 07:15 |
| neatbook | how do i do that? | 07:15 |
| genewitch | neatbook: man sed | 07:15 |
| BigTaxi | none | 07:15 |
| llutz_ | neatbook: "basename /home/dsd.c" | 07:16 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: then you shouldn't be typing in the subnet unless your ISP assigned you a static address | 07:16 |
| neatbook | thank you! | 07:16 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: does it start with 209/ | 07:16 |
| genewitch | 209* | 07:16 |
| BigTaxi | but just inputting '...addr add xxx.xxx.xxx.xx dev eth0 does not work | 07:17 |
| neatbook | what about folder name? | 07:17 |
| BigTaxi | yes. but i do not know how safe it is to reveal that stuff. | 07:17 |
| llutz_ | neatbook: dirname <foo> | 07:17 |
| neatbook | ur the best llutz | 07:17 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: type ifconfig |grep inet | 07:17 |
| hydrox24 | llutz_: nice trick! | 07:17 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: does it say anything about 209 in there or is it 192.168.x.x | 07:17 |
| BigTaxi | 209 are first 3 digits | 07:18 |

| BigTaxi | the code you gave me, grep, has given me much more intense information | 07:19 |
| === Gskellig|here is now known as Gskellig|away | ||
| BigTaxi | this one says my IP is 192 | 07:19 |
| genewitch | grep is just a way to filter what ifconfig says into 1 line | 07:19 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: type ifconfig | 07:19 |
| genewitch | that shows you every network interface | 07:19 |
| BigTaxi | confirmed | 07:19 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: i missed what exactly you were trying to do, what are you trying to do | 07:20 |
| BigTaxi | well, i'm trying to get my wireless to bridge through computer A to my 360. it was working a day ago, then all of a sudden it does.t Computer B uses safe exact settings, same cord, and works fine. | 07:21 |
| BigTaxi | A is just more convenient | 07:21 |
| BigTaxi | ^^same | 07:21 |
| BigTaxi | * | 07:21 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: wireless as in like cellular modem? | 07:21 |
| BigTaxi | as in... the wireless connection here at the apartment? i'm not sure. standard issue, i suppose. | 07:22 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: use networkmanager. you shouldn't need to add routes by hand - are you on ubuntu desktop or server | 07:22 |
| BigTaxi | a complication is computer A does not seem to accept the cable from the xbox. it constantly connects and disconnects. | 07:22 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: autonegotiation failing | 07:22 |
| BigTaxi | ok... this is going to sound moronic, but there honestly is no program called network manager. i have 'network' in settings, and 'network connections' | 07:23 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: you can fix that with some commands i don't remember in a command line. but you can bridge (connection sharing) with the little network manager icon on the ubuntu desktop | 07:23 |

| zerlord | Hello! I've a problem with my ubuntu system..when I want to aptitude -upgrade it always says: Unable to safely resolve dependencies, try running with --full-resolver | 07:25 |
| tristan3199 | llutz_: sweet.. thats excatly what i was lookin to find.. | 07:26 |
| paulus68 | llutz_: no it's working fully automated | 07:26 |
| llutz_ | paulus68: thats how it should work, but it still should do the job if you start it manually (for testing) | 07:26 |
| genewitch | zerlord: apt-get update first? | 07:26 |
| zerlord | sorry it cut something...when I try to aptitude -upgrade | 07:27 |
| North | how can I open the task manager? | 07:27 |
| llutz_ | paulus68: nvm, nice to hear it works after all | 07:27 |
| paulus68 | llutz_: that's working also | 07:27 |
| goddard | North: type "top" | 07:27 |
| zerlord | yea I did aptitude -update first | 07:27 |
| North | thanks | 07:27 |
| genewitch | zerlord: why aptitude | 07:27 |
| llutz_ | paulus68: oh, do you know why it failed before? | 07:27 |
| genewitch | zerlord: try apt-get upgrade | 07:27 |
| neatbook | I am trying to read files in a directory and conver their names to all capital, but my shell script changes directory names to capital too! any advice?? | 07:28 |
| zerlord | hmm also when I'm using apitude? | 07:28 |
| Ben64 | neatbook: pastebin script and maybe someone could help | 07:28 |
| paulus68 | llutz_: well I think it was something in the config file, I copied the complete original config file into the old one and just adapted the things there and since then it's working correctly | 07:28 |
| paulus68 | llutz_: and the rsnapshot diff enabeling might have done the trick to | 07:29 |
| North | how can I stop the command while the command "top" is running? | 07:29 |
| llutz_ | paulus68: hmm, i thought we checked the conf several times... anyways | 07:29 |
| neatbook | north: cnt+z | 07:29 |
| zerlord | so when I want to use aptitude to update my system I have at first to type apt-get update and then aptitude upgrade? | 07:30 |
| zykotick9 | zerlord: there is no - BTW. "aptitude update" | 07:30 |
| North | then can I stop the specific program by force in the shell command? | 07:31 |
| Ben64 | North: stop or kill? | 07:31 |
| North | kill | 07:31 |
| BigTaxi | genewitch: ethtool says there is autonegotiation, and it is supported, etc. | 07:31 |
| Ben64 | North: kill -9 <pid> | 07:31 |
| bobo37773 | zerlord: apt-get and aptitude are 2 different things | 07:31 |
| zykotick9 | North: "kill PID#" or to kill all the instances of a program "killall PROGRAMNAME" | 07:31 |
| zykotick9 | Ben64: DON'T recommend -9, it's not a good idea (unless the regular method fails, first) | 07:32 |
| Ben64 | zykotick9: but i like -9 :( | 07:32 |
| zerlord | yea but they are both packetmanagers right? I thought aptitude is more "smart" in solving dependencies | 07:32 |
| zykotick9 | !wfm > Ben64 | 07:32 |
| ubottu | Ben64, please see my private message | 07:32 |
| genewitch | BigTaxi: right but it's failing, probably the xbox's fault. google turn off autonegotiation ubuntu eth | 07:32 |
| Ben64 | zykotick9: whats wrong with -9 | 07:32 |
| hydrox24 | zerlord: just stick with apt-get until you have issues | 07:32 |
| llutz_ | zerlord: they are just 2 different frontends to apt | 07:32 |
| bobo37773 | zerlord: I prefer aptitude over apt-get | 07:32 |
| prince_jammys | Ben64: too brutal. | 07:32 |
| zykotick9 | Ben64: i don't feel like explaining it... | 07:32 |
| hydrox24 | zerlord: yeh that's true too | 07:33 |
| lonejack | hi, is there an appli that manages the number of kernel to mantain? That is, left on the HD only the 3-4 kernel for example... | 07:33 |
| prince_jammys | Ben64: doesn't let program cleanup after itself. | 07:33 |
| zerlord | okey! so I at first will type apt-get upgrade and then aptitude update?! | 07:33 |
| zykotick9 | lonejack: no, just uninstall the ones you don't want | 07:33 |
| popey | zykotick9: no | 07:33 |
| popey | oops | 07:33 |
| hydrox24 | zerlord: no, apt-get update comes first | 07:33 |
| Ben64 | prince_jammys: hey he asked how to kill something | 07:33 |
| popey | zerlord: no, use apt-get or aptitude, you don't mix them | 07:33 |
| prince_jammys | Ben64: well, i was answering your -9 question. | 07:34 |
| North | when i typed "k", "PID to kill:" pops up. and then I typed firefox. | 07:34 |
| North | but failed. | 07:34 |
| popey | zerlord: you can mix them but there's not a lot of point | 07:34 |
| zykotick9 | zerlord: "aptitude update" then "aptitude safe-upgrade" would be one method | 07:34 |
| hydrox24 | zerlord: yeh, don't mix em | 07:34 |
| North | why? | 07:34 |
| zerlord | ah yea sorry I made a mistake | 07:34 |
| hydrox24 | North: PID is the number, not the name of the process | 07:34 |
| North | I see | 07:34 |
| llutz_ | Ben64: always be nice first and try using kill without "-9". if that fails, stop being nice... | 07:34 |
| zerlord | ok I'll try it right now ;) | 07:34 |
| neatbook | what is extention .tex?? | 07:34 |
| North | I could not use -9 | 07:34 |
| Ben64 | North: you could do "kill `pidof firefox`" | 07:34 |
| popey | neatbook: latex | 07:34 |
| Ben64 | North: it finds the pid for you | 07:35 |
| hydrox24 | Ben64: he is using it inside od top | 07:35 |

| Ben64 | com4: you might want to verify your disc image is correct | 07:45 |
| almoxarife | the 'alternate' install is a more complete install, it says so in the docs, and its also better for quirky installs, tried once and never gone back to the 'standard' since | 07:45 |

| com4 | man i hope it works :) | 07:47 |
| bobo37773 | popey: Definitely. xrandr is the way to go | 07:48 |
| Andy80 | how do I manually set a screen resolution with xrandr if the display is not correctly detected? I only get this output http://pastebin.com/ByRgUpgR (please NOTE: I probably have this problem because I'm using a VGA-switch, but my display and my videocard work normally if connected directly) | 07:48 |
| infid | i ran "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gearman-developers/ppa ; sudo apt-get update" but for some reason the ppa isn't being added to /etc/apt/sources.list. Any ideas? | 07:49 |
| popey | infid: it wont be, it will be added to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list | 07:49 |
| bobo37773 | Andy80: xrandr --output default --mode 1440x900 <--- or whatever resolution | 07:49 |
| popey | infid: a file will be added in that directory | 07:49 |
| zykotick9 | infid: no PPAs get added to sources.list - check /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ i believe | 07:50 |
| infid | popey: ok but also when i do sudo apt-cache show gearman, it's still showing the older version | 07:50 |

| hydrox24 | aknewhope: hi! | 07:52 |
| Andy80 | bobo37773: look the pastebin.com link I provided... I've connected a VGA-switch between the display and the videocard. If I boot my PC in this mode the screen is not detected. If I remove the VGA switch and boot normally, THEN connect the switch between the display and videocard, it works. | 07:52 |
| infid | popey: 10.04 | 07:52 |
| hydrox24 | aknewhope: what do you nned help with? | 07:52 |
| popey | Andy80: blame the switch | 07:52 |
| === tabakhase_ is now known as tabakhase | ||
| Andy80 | popey: I know.... but it must work. It works if you FIRST boot the PC normally, then you connect the switch, so I'd like to force the resolution to 1680x1050 since I know that works even with the switch connected | 07:53 |
| popey | Andy80: probably easiest to craft an xorg.conf which specifies the necessary modelines and resolutions | 07:54 |
| bobo37773 | Andy80: xrandr -s 1680x1050 ? | 07:54 |
| Andy80 | popey: exactly..... but before messing the xorg.conf I'd like to test the settings with xrandr :P | 07:54 |
| Andy80 | bobo37773: let me try... | 07:54 |

| Andy80 | Size 1680x1050 not found in available modes | 07:55 |
| popey | Andy80: you can add modes to xrandr manually | 07:55 |
| Andy80 | I need to add a new section first, but I really don't remember all the syntax... | 07:55 |
| popey | Andy80: xorg --help | 07:55 |

| debaino | yogg:The thing is,when the same com[puter is running windows,its considerably faster and slower on ubuntu. | 08:53 |
| Tankado | Hello, if i want to run ubuntu alongside my windows installation i see i can use Wubi (if i get it right as oppose to having two partitions) , what is the cons for doing that? is that going to be slow like a virtual machine kind of application? | 08:53 |
| yogg | debaino: so it has on windows 256 mb of aram and in ubuntu only 116mb? | 08:53 |
| aBound | Tankado, Wubi has some known issues you might want to review. | 08:54 |
| neatbook | does ubuntu have a task manager where i can check my memory use? | 08:54 |
| yogg | neatbook: top, free -m | 08:55 |
| aBound | Tankado, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Troubleshooting | 08:55 |
| aBound | Wubi can corrupt the NTFS file system. | 08:55 |
| debaino | yogg:I haven't looked at the memory situation on windows but what i can tell is that when running ubuntu,the computer is way slower.Any reason why this is so?. | 08:55 |
| Tankado | Well i will use the offical version then and use two partitions as i used in the past | 08:56 |
| ServerSage | debaino: How are you gauging speed? Are the graphics slower? Does it hang? What? | 08:56 |
| neatbook | ubuntu is so slow on my comp wtf.... | 08:56 |
| aBound | Tankado, Better off using the real Ubuntu ISO (in my opinion). | 08:56 |
| Tankado | ok, thanks aBound. | 08:57 |
| ServerSage | neatbook: I'll as you too, how are you gauging speed? | 08:57 |
| aBound | Tankado, Welcome. | 08:58 |
| debaino | ServerSage:I am repairing 2 compuetrs both with 256 mb memory.On one i install ubuntu and the other windows xp.I notice that ubuntu is slower by noting the amount of time it takes to finish a task like launching programs,etc. | 08:58 |
| yogg | debaino: what ubuntu version? what windows version? windows 3.11 will be much faster than ubuntu 11.10 on such hardware. (i think). Is a GUI installed (Gnome, KDE, ...) what does "top" say?. Way slower is not a good description :D | 08:58 |
| debaino | Anyone can see it. | 08:59 |
| debaino | yogg:I am using Gnome. | 08:59 |
| aBound | yogg, Windows XP will be much faster than a newer version of Ubuntu. | 08:59 |
| aBound | Seeing as Windows XP has less code written for it. | 08:59 |
| debaino | aBound:Why? | 08:59 |
| aBound | Ubuntu 11.10 uses a newer kernel more drivers, more features etc... | 08:59 |
| ServerSage | debaino: Umm, because it's smaller? Older? Designed for ancient hardware? | 09:00 |
| aBound | More packages... | 09:00 |
| aBound | Oops, I think I was referring to debaino | 09:00 |
| aBound | lol | 09:00 |
| ServerSage | debaino: How much slower are we talking? | 09:00 |
| XeeNa | Anyone knows why a fresh install - after updating - wont boot and just ends up with busybox? | 09:00 |
| aBound | debaino, It's like for example trying to install Win7 onto 256MB will more or less put the system to a crawl. | 09:00 |
| aBound | The RAM speed is probably running at 133Mhz. | 09:01 |
| ikonia | XeeNa: disks not being setup correctly | 09:01 |
| ikonia | XeeNa: very common cause | 09:01 |
| zykotick9 | aBound: you are aware that Ubuntu has a 1GB RAM requirement right? If you want something fast, check out lubuntu. | 09:01 |
| aBound | Newer OS's tend to require more RAM. | 09:02 |
| aBound | zykotick9, Yes I am aware: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 09:02 |
| debaino | ServerSage:The computer freezes momentarily when opening firefox | 09:02 |

| zykotick9 | aBound: sorry, wrong person ;) | 09:02 |
| aBound | hehe | 09:02 |
| ikonia | XeeNa: just pay attention in the disk partitioning section | 09:02 |
| aBound | No problem I did the same thing zykotick9 | 09:02 |
| zykotick9 | debaino: you are aware that Ubuntu has a 1GB RAM requirement right? If you want something fast, check out lubuntu. | 09:02 |
| debaino | aBound:Is there a version of ubuntu that is most suitable for computers with not more than 512mb of ram?. | 09:02 |
| ServerSage | debaino: As zykotick9 just pominter out, you are running an OS that requires 1GB on a system with 256mb. | 09:02 |
| ServerSage | Wow, pointed out. Fingers went all psycho there. | 09:03 |

| DJango_Novice | huser settings on ubuntu 11.10 is disabled ...how shall i enable it? | 09:45 |
| _NiC | Hetep, like edheldil says, dovecot is a good choice. | 09:45 |
| DJango_Novice | user settings i mean | 09:45 |
| _NiC | Hetep, dovecot supports both pop and imap, also with ssl. | 09:46 |
| _NiC | nepolean, apache2's configfiles are in /etc/apache2/ | 09:46 |
| Hetep | perhaps wiki information is not updated | 09:46 |
| soa2ii | How can you tall apt to override all edited config files? Is there a way to do that? | 09:47 |
| saganbyte | Hi | 09:48 |
| dannel | HI | 09:48 |
| saganbyte | I m ttrying to install Ubuntu Server 10.04 on a netbook with no CD ROM | 09:49 |
| saganbyte | i m using a thumbdrive | 09:49 |
| saganbyte | the installationdoesnt proceed beyond the CD Driver installation | 09:49 |
| nepolean | _NiC theres no option in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file for php module | 09:49 |
| iceroot | nepolean: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini | 09:49 |
| saganbyte | it cannot detect a CD ROM (coz there isnt one) and it tries to load its drivers but fails to install them | 09:50 |
| saganbyte | Is there something I can do about this | 09:50 |
| nepolean | iceroot which line should i look for in that | 09:50 |
| iceroot | nepolean: you want to enable php? | 09:50 |
| _NiC | nepolean, do ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-{enabled,available}/php* | 09:50 |
| edheldil | nepolean: read the apache doc on module loading. Really. Other you will shoot your foot | 09:50 |
| nepolean | iceroot yes | 09:50 |
| _NiC | nepolean, if it's only in available, you need to enable it | 09:50 |
| _NiC | nepolean, if it's in both, you should be set. | 09:50 |
| _NiC | nepolean, enable it with a2enmod php5 | 09:50 |
| iceroot | nepolean: then its sudo a2enmod or /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ | 09:50 |
| iceroot | nepolean: but normally the php5 installation is doint that by default. you are using apache and php from the repos? | 09:51 |
| nepolean | iceroot yes | 09:51 |
| edheldil | php or libapache2-mod-php? | 09:52 |
| islay | whats a good channel to get android dev help? | 09:52 |
| iceroot | !alis | islay | 09:52 |
| ubottu | islay: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 09:52 |
| nepolean | # a2enmod php5 | 09:53 |
| nepolean | Module php5 already enabled | 09:53 |
| nepolean | iceroot _NiC | 09:53 |
| scarleo | islay, android-dev | 09:53 |
| nepolean | iceroot _NiC ^ | 09:53 |
| iceroot | nepolean: apache reloaded?restarted? | 09:53 |
| nepolean | iceroot services apache reload? | 09:54 |
| [[thufir]] | islay: android-dev I believe | 09:54 |
| ikonia | 1[1;3D[1;3D234 | 09:55 |
| ikonia | oops, sorry | 09:55 |
| nepolean | iceroot think its the command to reload ? | 09:55 |
| [[thufir]] | islay: at least that's what ##java says in their intro : Android in #android-dev | 09:55 |
| aBound | Is there anyway to view a list of commands inside the terminal? | 09:55 |
| _NiC | aBound, well... | 09:56 |
| [[thufir]] | aBound: infinite list...just a bout. at least very large and uncertain # | 09:56 |
| islay | thanks | 09:56 |
| _NiC | aBound, not really. ls -l /bin/, ls -l /usr/bin/ at least will give you something to play with. :-) | 09:56 |
| aBound | Ugh... | 09:56 |
| [[thufir]] | maybe you could see what's on your env path to get an idea. | 09:56 |
| aBound | [[thufir]], It's like treasure droving isn't it. lol | 09:56 |
| aBound | _NiC, Yeah I kinda figured that directory would only give me a few bits. Oh well. | 09:57 |
| iceroot | aBound: a list like? | 09:57 |
| edheldil | aBound: you should have seen me, sitting behind SGI Indy for the first time, clicking on various binaries in /usr/bin/... yeeeears ago | 09:58 |
| [[thufir]] | lol | 09:58 |
| iceroot | aBound: all available commands? | 09:58 |
| [[thufir]] | what about the env path? | 09:58 |
| aBound | iceroot, Yes. | 09:58 |
| iceroot | aBound: TAB TAB | 09:58 |
| aBound | Every command that exist on ubuntu. | 09:58 |
| zykotick9 | aBound: <TAB><TAB> should list all executables in your PATH | 09:58 |
| iceroot | aBound: TAB TAB will show you every command which is in PATH | 09:59 |
| nepolean | iceroot _NiC its done. thx | 09:59 |
| * [[thufir]] bogs | 09:59 | |
| edheldil | aBound: try to mispell for even more fun ;-) | 09:59 |
| aBound | edheldil, HA! | 10:00 |
| aBound | iceroot, Interesting never knew about tab, tab. | 10:00 |
| aBound | edheldil, I'm surprised you still aren't checking for those hidden commands. :P | 10:01 |
| linocisco | hi all | 10:01 |
| linocisco | how could I control download limit of my wifi customers? | 10:01 |
| _NiC | nepolean, hth! | 10:02 |
| aBound | _NiC, iceroot, [[thufir]] , zykotick9 edheldil, thankies. :P | 10:02 |
| edheldil | linocisco: possibly your wifi router has configs for that. Depends on how enterprisy you are :) | 10:02 |
| _NiC | aBound, tab is handy, yes. completes all kinds of things. paths and filenames too | 10:02 |
| linocisco | I sold internet link by means of long distance wifi point to point or P2Muti point. I would like to limit them not to use home router. want to limit only one PC | 10:03 |
| aBound | Another question I can't output all these commands to a file eh? Something like >> mycmds | 10:03 |
| linocisco | edheldil: mine has none | 10:03 |
| _NiC | aBound, tab completes if only one thing matches, tab tab gives a list of matches if there's more than one | 10:03 |
| linocisco | edheldil: mac filtering is not good | 10:03 |
| aBound | _NiC, Indeed I been in the Linux world years ago but forgot all to use all the nifty stuff. | 10:03 |
| aBound | Been thinking of switching to zsh over bash. | 10:04 |
| nepolean | how can i make a cron that runs a php file after 5 mins ? | 10:04 |
| _NiC | nepolean, crontab -e, please read man 5 crontab first. :) | 10:05 |
| aBound | _NiC, Always good to have a list of commands available if you intend to write shell scripts. :) | 10:05 |
| edheldil | aBound: for writing script, the essential is "man bash" | 10:05 |
| _NiC | aBound, the list would be just too big.. | 10:06 |
| aBound | _NiC, No kidding right but there are some treasures to be found. | 10:06 |
| aBound | edheldil, Agreed. | 10:06 |
| _NiC | aBound, awk, sed, cut and grep will get you far. :-) | 10:07 |

| _NiC | aBound, with lots of neat little tricks. | 10:13 |
| aBound | edheldil, Wouldn't reading the whole man page be insane? | 10:13 |

| jatt | my wireless doesn't work I did sudo iwconfig and got: http://codepad.org/4GmuTU1c | 10:16 |
| xro | edheldil, i did it and i obtained --> http://dpaste.com/693481 can you take a look and give me a hint... (it looks the script wait for data and they never come) | 10:16 |
| jatt | does this mean the card is off? | 10:16 |
| trapni | how do I grep the list of installable packages to get the real name of the libnih package, e.g.? | 10:16 |
| jatt | it's a 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300 | 10:17 |
| edheldil | xro: perhaps it does not like it's in the background? | 10:17 |
| zykotick9 | trapni: you could try "apt-cache search libnih" | 10:17 |
| _NiC | trapni, aptitude search libnih doesn't give you what you want? | 10:17 |
| edheldil | hard to tell without knowing more | 10:17 |
| bryn_ | what does it mean when a checkbox is grayed out in update manager? | 10:17 |
| xro | edheldil, i started it from a shell in gnome X... do you thing there is something wrong? | 10:18 |
| trapni | _NiC: yeah, did not remember `aptitute search NAME` in the first place. so thank ya :) | 10:19 |
| edheldil | xro: Can't say with so little info. SHOULD it do some network communication, for example? | 10:20 |
| edheldil | or run subprocesses? | 10:20 |
| xro | edheldil, it's a python script with many network interactions... But there is no subprocess... I think that the script is waiting to get data from a distant server and don't get them... | 10:21 |
| _NiC | xro, did you run the strace? | 10:22 |
| xro | _NiC, yes --> http://dpaste.com/693481 | 10:22 |
| _NiC | ah. | 10:22 |
| yogg | how can I fore an fsck on an mounted drive? I always get "WARNING!!! The filesystem is mounted. ..." -> "Would you realy continue (y/n)?". How can i disable this question or answer it with "yes" out of a script? | 10:23 |
| _NiC | yogg, you should really umount it first. | 10:23 |
| llutz_ | yogg: you don't want to do that | 10:23 |
| xro | could i send a sigcont to the process.. So the script should continue? | 10:23 |
| jonathon | I DLed a program that's precompiled but comes with a install.sh script, How do I install it? | 10:23 |
| yogg | on a read only filesystem there should not be a problem with that | 10:23 |
| edheldil | xro: quite possibly it waits for data that never comes. If you want to debug it, the pdb or strace from the beginning | 10:24 |
| llutz_ | yogg: yes|fsck -some /dev/blah if you really want | 10:24 |
| _NiC | xro, does lsof -np <pid> show anything .. useful? | 10:25 |
| edheldil | jonathon: run the install.sh script, what else would you expect? | 10:25 |
| zykotick9 | jonathon: if you are sure there isn't an ubuntu package, use "sh install.sh" (it probably will need sudo as well) | 10:25 |
| jonathon | zykotick9, Thanks | 10:26 |
| yogg | llutz_: brings me the same like "fsck.ext2 /dev/sda1 -y << EOF yes EOF" -> not possible while mounted. But if i press yes in the interactive mode it works without problems :/ | 10:26 |
| _NiC | yogg, doesn't fsck have some kind of force option? | 10:27 |
| xro | _NiC, it shows that a connexion is established between my server and the distant one... the problem should really is "no data comes"-.... | 10:27 |
| aBound | Alright guys have a goodnight or good morning. I'm outta here swoosh... | 10:27 |
| _NiC | xro, wouldn't that be a problem at the other end, then? | 10:27 |
| yogg | _NiC: "-f" yes but this message comes anyway :( | 10:27 |
| xro | _NiC, if my script continue, no.... | 10:27 |
| edheldil | xro: but it does not, so ... | 10:28 |
| xro | edheldil, yes it does... it waits for that data before continu... | 10:28 |
| edheldil | xro: but since that data does not come, it might be problem at the other end of the connection | 10:30 |
| xro | edheldil, yes... maybe | 10:30 |
| edheldil | or you wait for too much data. | 10:30 |
| cjoke | how do I define that I want to install libxtst i386 package with apt-get ? | 10:31 |

| subb1 | hi all. | 10:58 |
| dlentz | hi | 10:59 |
| subb1 | I have a 40G that can be fully dedicated for ubuntu install. Can u suggest any articles where I get to know about how much to dedicate for /root /home etc? Its for normal desktop usage connected to internet | 11:00 |
| TimmyT | llutz: it says:siocsifflags: no such file or directory | 11:01 |
| llutz_ | subb1: 15 / + 25 /home should be fine | 11:02 |
| subb1 | llutz_, i have 4G ram, so is 8G necessary for swap? | 11:03 |
| llutz_ | subb1: nope, do you want to use hibernation? then swap = ram + a bit, else swap 1gb | 11:04 |
| llutz_ | i hope the myth of swap=2xRAM will die soon. its a rule of thumb from "those days" pc came with 32MB and less | 11:05 |
| subb1 | llutz_: I see. I might need hib' so i guess a 5G swap would do? | 11:05 |
| rigved | llutz_: but now it is swap=1.5xRAM+VideoRAM, which is approx. = 2xRAM | 11:06 |
| llutz_ | rigved: nonsense | 11:06 |
| rigved | llutz_: sometimes ram usage is very high and more swap is required in that case... | 11:06 |
| subb1 | llutz_, I have a dedicated video card. so that wont matter i guess. | 11:06 |
| llutz_ | the only reason to have such a mass of swap is hibernation. if one don't want to hibernate, nobody needs > 1gb swap on regular base | 11:06 |
| llutz_ | if more than 1gb swap is used daily, one needs more ram | 11:07 |
| rigved | llutz_: well i was talking in that context. hibernating when ram is already being used a lot...like when you are doing some heavy work and would to hibernate instead of restarting later and starting all the heavy work from stratch. | 11:08 |
| subb1 | llutz_: ok, thanks :) | 11:08 |
| llutz_ | rigved: practical: since hibernation won't work for the most installations at all, no one needs to care about :( | 11:09 |
| concrete1itamin | Hi all. I have some unallocated space "on the left" of my Ubuntu partitions. What tool should I use to merge it into / (i.e. use it to extend my Ubuntu's space)? | 11:09 |

| norbert79 | parana: Did you try to use the package manager or plain sudo apt-get install gcc? | 11:12 |
| parana | actually i use angstrom instead of ubuntu but no one replies in angstrom channel | 11:12 |
| parana | they are both linux based, so i ask here | 11:13 |

| renegade_m | can I use ndiswrapper from Lucid Lynx to Intrepid Ibex? | 11:15 |
| norbert79 | renegade_m: Going from Lucid to Ibex? Why don't you upgrade then? And afaik Ibex had ndiswrapper available. If you are looking for the old repositories, you might want to check http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/, setting as repository. Afaik Ibex is not anymore supported | 11:17 |
| norbert79 | renegade_m: Yet you can still usde the mentioned website for grabbing old packages for older distributions | 11:18 |
| renegade_m | cause, I want to enable Atheros wireless on my old 8.10 Intrepid Ibex. | 11:20 |

| norbert79 | renegade_m: If you add the mentioned repository, you can install ndiswrapper. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com offers ndiswrapper too | 11:21 |

| renegade_m | I'm new to linux by the way.:) | 11:23 |
| dlentz | i see | 11:23 |
| norbert79 | dlentz: It's a bit offtopic, but let me reply: Sometimes specific tools are tight to specific distributions, or the migration would take too much time. Think onm Precise and Lucid. Lucid came with Gnome 2, Precise will be Gnome 3. Now not everyone likes the second, or will have issues with migrating, and doing corrective actions/modifications take time | 11:23 |
| renegade_m | I just want to know how to install drivers in linux using ubuntu. | 11:23 |
| norbert79 | renegade_m: Oh, well in this case you might want to experiment with a more recent distribution. Is there any specific reason why you are tied to Ibex? | 11:23 |
| renegade_m | I have a good experience in booting.. unlike my new download 11.10 and even my 10.10 | 11:24 |
| soa2ii | Do you find somewhere an official LDAP client howto for 11.10? | 11:24 |
| norbert79 | renegade_m: Ever considered solving your issues with the recent distributions would be more efficient, than tieing yourself to an older unsupported distribution? | 11:25 |

| norbert79 | paulmdavies87: PXE booting involves basically TFTP method through LAN, basically you boot like from a CDROM but you use a LAN machine for that | 11:26 |
| renegade_m | thank you guyz!=) | 11:27 |
| norbert79 | renegade_m: I would still suggest using a recent distro, or learn how you can add new repositories for your distribution :) | 11:27 |
| renegade_m | I see myself using one stable linux distro one day.. something I can depend on. | 11:27 |
| renegade_m | thanks for that! yes..:) | 11:28 |
| slidercrank_^H | I have this problem. The network module my network card requires is buggy in the kernel Ubuntu supplies. So I have to manually build the module from the sources of the manufacturer. | 11:30 |
| slidercrank_^H | That's not a big deal. But when Ubuntu's kernel gets updated, the network is lost. So the question is "how to make Ubuntu run a custom script so that I could rebuild the driver from sources and place it to /lib/modules....?" | 11:30 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: rebuilding a module by a script is not something I'd recommend | 11:30 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: how would you suggest to solve this problem? | 11:30 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: the kernel is not often updated, so just manually rebuild the module each time you update the kernel | 11:30 |
| dlentz | dkms, if you're up to it | 11:30 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Are you sure your network card isn't supported by the kernel at all? There are some 'drivers' available in the additional kernel-images-addons, called 'restrictred modules' | 11:31 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: I have Unbuntu server on an production server. So the loss of connectivity is a serious problem | 11:31 |
| meerkats | how do I set ubuntu to automatically open a new HDD every time I plug it in? | 11:31 |
| jatt | open or mount | 11:31 |
| meerkats | plus, the HDD is named Volume-1, but I can only access it via usb0, why? | 11:31 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: it's not supported by the module which is in the kernel from Ubuntu | 11:32 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: - I apologise if this seems a bad thing to say, but matching hardware support to OS versions is a critical part of putting a server into a "production" state | 11:32 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: I understand, so 'restricted' doesn't help either. This is weird, because normally that does the trick. Any specific reason why you are tied to that device? And why was Ubuntu chosen as server environment in first place? (I know, this might sound against Ubuntu, but it's worth asking) | 11:33 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: you can't say if it's supported. /lib/modules/2.6.32-38-server/kernel/drivers/net/e1000e/e1000e.ko Seems like a normal driver. It's part of kernel. But it doesn't work. | 11:33 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Did you also try to use parameters for the hardware device? | 11:33 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what network card is it ? | 11:34 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Sometimes specific hardwares need specific module parametering foor making it work | 11:34 |
| wade | is the module loaded? sudo modprobe e10000e - or whatever | 11:34 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: I would personally choose debian. It was not my choice. Passing parameters to the kernel module doesn't help. Only the official driver from Intel works | 11:34 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what network card device is it ? | 11:34 |
| dlentz | s/he probable needs a newer version of said module. not uncommon | 11:34 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Seems weird, but not impossible. | 11:34 |
| norbert79 | aye | 11:35 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: One more question: what server version you are running and what kernel do you use? | 11:35 |
| dlentz | slidercrank_^H, did you file a bug? | 11:36 |
| slidercrank_^H | dlentz: I didn't | 11:36 |
| dlentz | slidercrank_^H is running lucid 2.6.32-38 | 11:36 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: Ubuntu Lucid (10.04). the kernel is 2.6.32-38-server | 11:36 |
| norbert79 | dlentz: Might because of older kernel too. Lucid is being offered 3 different kernels at least, a more recent might work | 11:36 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Well, Lucid is being offered kernel 3.0 too | 11:36 |
| |hmax| | How do I turn ubuntu into a router? | 11:37 |
| dlentz | in lucid-proposed | 11:37 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what actual network card is it | 11:37 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: You might want to add backports and proposed too | 11:37 |
| ikonia | |hmax|: using something like iptables to make a network routing/forwarding table | 11:37 |
| norbert79 | |hmax|: And using limited install | 11:37 |
| |hmax| | ikonia: thanks. How would I get the outbound connection to connect to tor on port 9050? Any tutorials you can point me to? | 11:38 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: I think I'm not the only with this problem. I've seen this bug mentioned on the internet. So , I guess, Ubuntu developers are aware of it | 11:38 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what network card is it | 11:38 |
| ikonia | !iptables | |hmax| | 11:38 |
| ubottu | |hmax|: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 11:38 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: That's probable, but if you have a different method of solving this, like using a newer kernel, it might be worth trying | 11:39 |
| ikonia | I can't believe you are all making these blind recommendations when you don't even know what network card he's using | 11:39 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Since you can have more kernels installed in parelell, yet you need to restart the server while switching from one to another | 11:39 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: And yes, for start I would recommend using lshw for listing the server's parameters | 11:39 |
| ikonia | that won't list any parameters | 11:40 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: True, but could give one a start | 11:40 |
| myndzi | i want to put a lightweight window manager on top of ubuntu server within vmware so i can use (vmware) unity to launch apps but mostly leave it running some services | 11:40 |
| ikonia | it will list a name associated with hard coded PCI id database | 11:40 |
| ikonia | I want to know the network card make/model | 11:40 |
| dlentz | ikonia, i trust slidercrank_^H's researched the issue | 11:40 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: I use Google for such further questions then | 11:40 |
| myndzi | i installed server and then installed two different -desktop packages but neither of them filled out the applications folder that vmware gives ;\ | 11:40 |
| myndzi | i installed ubuntu desktop instead and it is filled properly, but there are a ton of things i don't want installed | 11:40 |
| ikonia | dlentz: how ? | 11:40 |
| ikonia | it's not hard to just confirm the network card make/model | 11:41 |
| myndzi | any idea which way is easiest to go, or what in particular provides that info to vmware? | 11:41 |
| ikonia | myndzi: remove what you don't want | 11:41 |
| myndzi | that's where i'm at now, but it looks like a big task | 11:41 |
| ikonia | myndzi: it has nothing to do with vmware, just remove the software from the install you don't want to use | 11:41 |
| myndzi | i can't multi-select or anything | 11:41 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: I have this list. When I was searching for the problem, I grabbed all the info I could. netcard registers and eeprom, lswh, dmesg and other things | 11:41 |
| ikonia | myndzi: open the package manager, select what you don't wnat and click "remove" | 11:41 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: do you know what make/model network card you have, yes/no | 11:41 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Still, I would still try using a more recent kernel, instead of sticking to 2.6.32... | 11:41 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: I understand | 11:42 |
| slidercrank_^H | yes | 11:42 |
| myndzi | i'm not sure you understand what i meant by "no multiselect" :P | 11:42 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what make/model network card do you have | 11:42 |
| myndzi | just looking to save an hour+ of clicking | 11:42 |
| myndzi | and password typing | 11:42 |
| ikonia | myndzi: use synaptic package manager | 11:42 |
| myndzi | as well as understand what went wrong ;) | 11:42 |
| ikonia | myndzi: you only type your password once | 11:42 |
| myndzi | mm | 11:42 |
| * myndzi looks | 11:42 | |
| myndzi | lol. i have to install it first, huh? ;) | 11:42 |
| myndzi | thanks | 11:43 |
| myndzi | this'll probably get it done | 11:43 |

| myndzi | is there perhaps a list somewhere of which packages are included in the desktop vs server installations? | 11:44 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: Irony :) | 11:44 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: did you say it to me? | 11:44 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: http://ark.intel.com/products/32209/Intel-82574L-Gigabit-Ethernet-Controller this one ? | 11:44 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: no, it was just a typo from my buffer | 11:45 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: I did a quick Google check, and it seems, that all of the problems are related to kernel 2.6.X, so I still would say, that it would be worth trying a more recent kernel | 11:45 |
| ikonia | norbert79: what are you talking about | 11:45 |
| ikonia | norbert79: how are you googling his problems when he's only just told us the network card model | 11:45 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: I'll try. Thanks for the suggestion. If it doesn't help, I'll still have to solve the problem with running a custom script automatically | 11:46 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: Well, I did a quick lookup, and I can also see his problems listed | 11:46 |
| metaspike1 | so much nonsensical chatter v_v | 11:47 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: looks like this model. it has the same number at least. My network card is integrated | 11:47 |
| ikonia | norbert79: quick look up of what, ?? he's only just shown us the model number | 11:47 |
| norbert79 | slidercrank_^H: Just out of curiosity: What's the server model and model number? | 11:47 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: can you give me 5 minutes to check a few things before make any changes | 11:47 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: yes | 11:47 |
| dlentz | metaspike1, thank you for your sage contribution | 11:47 |
| dlentz | dlentz, thank you for your sage contribution | 11:48 |
| * dlentz just metaanalyzed | 11:48 | |
| norbert79 | ikonia: Listen, if his server gets dropped anyway while a new kernel install a try for a more recent kernel won1t hurt, and won't take longer, than 5 minutes... Worst case he needs to do an apt-get purge of the newer kernel... It's not like modifying a whole filesystem... | 11:49 |
| ikonia | norbert79: yes it will | 11:49 |
| ikonia | norbert79: randomly enabling back ports and proposed update repos with no reason is very dangerous and can pull in dependencies that cause problems/break other things | 11:49 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: Aw come on, you can't think of this serious. This way youa re saying, that Ubuntu offers bad things in it's repos... | 11:50 |
| neatbook | how do u check spaces in ur hdd? | 11:50 |
| norbert79 | neatbook: You mean filespace? take df -h for example | 11:50 |
| ikonia | norbert79: no - I'm saying it offers things that can conflict with the base product / not stable that's what "proprosed is" - not production ready a proposed update | 11:51 |
| ikonia | norbert79: so putting that sort of thing on a production server which could update dependencies is not a good idea, more so when there is no thought behind it or research | 11:51 |
| norbert79 | ikonia: Besides, he just needs to switch back to the older kernel, that's it... Keeping it simple works always | 11:52 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: this motherboard: http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon3000/3400/X8SIE.cfm?IPMI=N&TYP=LN2 | 11:52 |

| norbert79 | neatbook: apt-cache search | 11:53 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: got a few moments to provide a little more information for me ? | 11:53 |
| neatbook | my ubuntu software centre is just a grey window no pic or nothin | 11:53 |
| neatbook | maybe reboot will solve the problem | 11:54 |
| meerkats | E: yacy: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1, would sudo apt-get clean make any difference? | 11:54 |
| norbert79 | meerkats: apt-get clean just does regular cleaning of packages. Not really | 11:55 |
| norbert79 | apt-get -f install might solve the issue, but some details on the error might help us help you more :) | 11:55 |
| meerkats | norbert79, no, force install didnt do anything yesterday | 11:56 |
| norbert79 | meerkats: Ehm, correction "clean" is related to the cache | 11:56 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: yes, feel free to ask. there are two intergated cards (they are equal) | 11:56 |
| norbert79 | meerkats: Well some details on the package and on the error might give more clues | 11:56 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: great, so both cards have the same issue, or just one ? | 11:57 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: currently only one is in use. I haven't tested the other card | 11:57 |
| norbert79 | . | 11:57 |
| norbert79 | Cheers | 11:58 |
| norbert79 | . | 11:58 |
| norbert79 | sorry, having issues with the network recently | 11:58 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: ok, could you post ifconfig $device for the card in question in a paste (remove the IP info - I don't need to see that) | 11:58 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: just want to check a few basics first | 11:59 |

| norbert79 | One thing which I just could see | 12:12 |
| slidercrank_^H | norbert79: http://pastebin.com/1tiEpJ22 ethtool output | 12:12 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: oh, it' for you | 12:12 |
| jatt | erc ftw | 12:12 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: just so you know, it's me who keeps asking. | 12:12 |
| ikonia | ahh you got it | 12:12 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: whoaa, are you meant to be running that card at 10 hdx duplex ? | 12:13 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | Wondering if anyone could help with an ageold problem. Everytime I try to reder a file in kdenlive it crashes | 12:13 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | and for some reason I am not able to fix the issue | 12:13 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: nope. but it's currently in that mode | 12:13 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: why is it in that mode / | 12:13 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | this has been ongoing now since an update. I have updated kdenlive many times over the past few weeks and it has not fixed anything :s | 12:14 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: because of the switch being used. it doesn't support 100mbit | 12:14 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: what does the switch support as you are getting a good few collisions in there for such a small ammount of data and your queue size is quite high for again, small data through put | 12:15 |
| norbert79 | [A | 12:15 |
| kwtm | Hi. Where on the web do I find latest news (Ubuntu WIki, forums etc.) on the 12.04 LTS distribution, whatever it's called? (Especially interested in the Kubuntu version.) | 12:15 |
| iceroot | kwtm: #ubuntu+1 | 12:16 |
| norbert79 | kwtm: Ehm, since it's January, don't you think it's early? | 12:16 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: that's because of the driver. 1.0.2-k2 is bad (from Ubuntu's kernel) | 12:16 |
| iceroot | kwtm: and normally hte blog from mark is a good start for new things but mostly based on unity | 12:16 |
| kwtm | norbert79: I guess that's why I can't find stuff the usual way. I'd like to know if I should upgrade to that version. | 12:16 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: sorry - I don't believe it is | 12:16 |
| kwtm | iceroot: Where is "blog from mark"? | 12:16 |
| slidercrank_^H | if I install the one from Intel it will work flawlessly | 12:16 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | does anyone here have any knowledge of kdenlive? | 12:16 |
| Gentoo64 | kwtm, well its not even stable | 12:16 |
| Gentoo64 | so why would you | 12:16 |
| iceroot | !anyone | AndyUbuntu1 | 12:16 |
| ubottu | AndyUbuntu1: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 12:16 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: so if you use the external one. it gets zero collisions and the queue size goes to zero | 12:17 |
| kwtm | Gentoo64: No. ,it isn't stable. Usually there's a list of goals or some burndown chart or something? | 12:17 |
| slidercrank_^H | ikonia: let's make an experiment | 12:17 |
| iceroot | kwtm: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/ | 12:17 |
| kwtm | iceroot: Thx. | 12:17 |

| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 12:18 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: look at the pastebin you've just posted me | 12:18 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | does anyone know why kdenlive crashes when kdenlive tries o render? | 12:18 |
| ikonia | slidercrank_^H: when the card works it's set at 10/hdx, when it's "dead" it's set at fdx - it won't run at fdx which is why it's "dead" | 12:18 |
| kantor | Hello | 12:19 |
| myndzi | went with ubuntu server in the end | 12:19 |
| iceroot | AndyUbuntu1: i dont know what kdenlive is but maybe you can call it with a debug-option? | 12:19 |
| myndzi | how do i permanently set the keyboard layout to dvorak? | 12:19 |
| myndzi | it changes when i execute dpkg-reconfigure console-data, but then doesn't save when i do dpkg-reconfigure console-setup (google result that seemed most likely) | 12:20 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | kdenlive is a video editor in linux. The debug options dont seem to show a lot really | 12:20 |
| myndzi | nm, think i got it after all | 12:23 |
| kantor | I have installed an application (more specifically the wesnoth game) with scons. Now I want to uninstall it. I have unpacked the game, and executed scons -c install from the game directory. But wesnoth is sill on my computer. I tried multiple option variations of the scons program: sconsc -c, scons -c install, scons uninstall, but wesnoth seem NOT to be uninstalled. How can I use scons to uninstall it?? | 12:24 |
| cir | excuse me | 12:24 |
| ikonia | kantor: scons ? | 12:24 |
| cir | i have a problem with my GRUB.... | 12:24 |
| kantor | ikonia, yes scons. | 12:24 |
| kantor | ikonia, why are you asking? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | kantor: because it's not a package manager I've heard of - and I've never seen used in ubuntu | 12:25 |
| LjL | ikonia: it's not a package manager, it's a "make" replacement | 12:25 |
| ikonia | oh, so a compile, how annoying | 12:26 |
| myndzi | guess not. damn, why should it be this hard to use anything but us-english qwerty :( | 12:26 |
| kantor | ikonia, it is a building system, like autotools, or cmake . . . with autotools you do a ./configured, than make uninstall to remove something which was installed from source code. | 12:26 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | Oh My Days, would just like a video editor that works :P | 12:26 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | why dont they work anymore | 12:26 |

| LjL | kantor: not sure about scons, but with make, "uninstall" only works if it's explicitly provided as a target by the program you're compiling. i've had a quick look at scons and it doesn't seem to be any different in that respect | 12:28 |
| LjL | kantor: next time you may want to consider installing with "checkinstall" (although checkinstall is hardly perfect), so you can remove later | 12:29 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | ikonia lol :) Kinda need a one video editor to work at the moment. Sort important....hmmmmm | 12:29 |
| CharminTheMoose | Are there any applications out there that can display 'menu-ised' menus that are window manager agnostic? | 12:30 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu1: yes, but moaning about it won't make it work - so please stop, you've been doing this for a while now | 12:30 |
| norbert79 | AndyUbuntu1: Ever tried OpenShot? Version 4.0 is out, and it might be a nice tool to use | 12:30 |
| Gentoo64 | AndyUbuntu1, openshot and avidemux edit videos | 12:30 |
| Gentoo64 | tried them? | 12:30 |
| LjL | CharminTheMoose: not sure what you mean...? Ubuntu has done a lot of work to make the menubar "unattached" to the window, so most applications will now use that | 12:30 |
| kantxx | hey all.. im seeing a weird prob w/ ubuntul installer.. the partitioner doesnt see my hdd but i can see it when dropping to a shell and doing fdisk -l | 12:30 |
| norbert79 | AndyUbuntu1: OpenShot has it's own PPA as well, and works like charm; Lucid also supported | 12:30 |
| kantor | LjL, If I do a scons uninstall it prints some checks, and in the end "scons: done building targets." and nothing happens :( | 12:31 |
| LjL | kantor: i suggest you reinstall using "checkinstall", then you can have a look at the resulting .deb file to see which files you need to remove | 12:31 |
| === damno is now known as d00m | ||
| kantor | OK, thanks LjL | 12:32 |
| d00m | does ubuntu have an xinitrc file? | 12:32 |
| Gentoo64 | d00m, it should use a logjn manager.. | 12:32 |
| d00m | Gentoo64: what if I want to change to different a WM? | 12:33 |
| CharminTheMoose | LjL, what I mean is like, with say, TWM, or WindowMaker, an application menu is automatically generated, but the downside is that it's specific to the window manager. I'm wondering if there's an application that's compatible with 'menu' (the menu generator app), so I don't have to rely on the WM being compatible. | 12:33 |
| Gentoo64 | d00m, you can make one then startx | 12:33 |
| Gentoo64 | d00m, the login manager should handle the commands for any wm you install | 12:33 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | norbert79 and Gentoo64 thanks for your positive feedback. I kwill try avidemux as openshot seems to not work at the moment either. think it is somethig with melt :s ikonia give it a break, all i need is a hand to fix it. Not tsome lame comments!!! | 12:33 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu1: just stop moaning | 12:34 |
| LjL | CharminTheMoose: ah, you're talking about the menu to *start* apps? i wouldn't know. | 12:34 |
| d00m | Gentoo64: I dont get any options, need to conf some files? | 12:34 |
| Gentoo64 | d00m, what wm is it | 12:34 |
| d00m | i3 | 12:34 |
| ikonia | i3 ? | 12:34 |
| Gentoo64 | apparently it should show up in lightdm or something | 12:34 |
| d00m | yeah i3-wm | 12:34 |
| norbert79 | AndyUbuntu1: Sure, any time. We could also try to fix your issues with OpenShot as well in query, if you are looking for further help | 12:34 |
| ikonia | I'll need to look that one up | 12:34 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | ikonia do one! I got some great advice from the others!! | 12:34 |
| CharminTheMoose | Cheers anyway, LjL. | 12:34 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu1: that's uncalled for, please just stop moaning, you've got your help, so that's great. | 12:35 |
| AndyUbuntu1 | norbert79 thanks. Have you come across and issues yourself with openshot? | 12:36 |

| Gentoo64 | no idea about d link | 12:42 |
| Gentoo64 | d00m, you could just have them commented in xinitrc | 12:43 |
| Gentoo64 | but like someone else said, i3 should appear in the login menu | 12:43 |
| Gentoo64 | :s | 12:43 |
| d00m | I mean would adding gnome-session (yeah commented) suffice? | 12:43 |
| === Hetep is now known as DarthCaeduces | ||

| shajeershamras | its | 13:44 |
| shajeershamras | it says wireless firmware missing....how i can resolve this problem | 13:44 |
| bazhang | http://ospa.arvat.org/ethernet-atheros/ subb1 please note you will need to install build-essential to follow this guide | 13:45 |
| bazhang | elbrinke, is there some problem with the older versions? they install correctly yes? | 13:46 |
| krised | Anyone running remastersys ? Im told by the admin that his repo is up but i cant connect to it using synaptic. | 13:46 |
| bazhang | krised, got the link? | 13:46 |
| elbrinke | they install… yes and they work, but does not support some of the features and widgets we require | 13:46 |

| elbrinke | the Open-Sankore.tar.gz file is already compiled and has a run.sh script that you have to run start Sankore app | 13:48 |
| bazhang | CaptAnon, thats not really on topic for here, please try in #ubuntu-offtopic | 13:48 |
| elbrinke | she i run the "run.sh" script Sankore starts up fine | 13:48 |

| mBison | hey i have a question, its about lunx but about my hardware | 13:51 |
| jatt | lunx? | 13:51 |
| mBison | Ok Linux | 13:51 |
| jatt | ohhhh | 13:51 |
| bazhang | mBison, ##hardware then | 13:51 |
| mBison | but its only happening in ubuntu | 13:52 |
| krised | bazhang http://www.remastersys.com/ubuntu.html look at the bottom where it says "Synaptic method" | 13:52 |
| mBison | so do i ask here or there | 13:52 |
| bazhang | krised, ok | 13:52 |
| bazhang | mBison, ask away | 13:52 |
| mBison | ok in windows it says i have 3 gb ram, i only put a 2 gb ram chip in the other slot wont let you put anything in there, in ubuntu disk manager, it says i am using a second (unknown to me) | 13:53 |
| mBison | SSD for ram (swap) | 13:53 |
| auronandace | mBison: you've just made no sense | 13:54 |
| mBison | i know i just read it | 13:54 |
| jatt | windows tell you you have 3GB ram? it must be a mistake | 13:54 |
| mBison | im on the floor but the laptop is way above me on the couch | 13:54 |
| mBison | linux says i have 3 gm ram also | 13:55 |
| mBison | 3gb ram also linux states | 13:55 |
| jatt | so? | 13:55 |
| LjL | mBison: 32bit or 64bit? | 13:55 |
| mBison | one of them if not both are lying to me | 13:55 |
| mBison | 32 | 13:55 |
| iceroot | mBison: 32bit can only show ~3GB ram | 13:56 |
| mBison | i only have 1 slot to put ram in, it was a 2gm chip[ | 13:56 |
| LjL | mBison: well that's normal then. with 32bit, you can have theoretically 4GB at most, in practice it will be less because of memory mapping. so 3gb makes sense. | 13:56 |
| LjL | mBison: so you're saying you should have *less* than 3gb? | 13:56 |
| mBison | yea | 13:56 |
| iceroot | mBison: impossible | 13:56 |
| jatt | if you put 2 and get 3 why complain? | 13:56 |
| iceroot | mBison: you put a 4gb inside on 32bit | 13:56 |
| mBison | i only put 2 gb chip in | 13:56 |
| auronandace | mBison: are you sure there is only one ram slot? | 13:57 |
| JWFoxJr | I have a 64 bit ubuntu workstation with 64bit java installed. I have a HP c7000 enclosure who's java based console will only run with 32 bit java. Can I install the 32 bit JDK side by side with the 64 bit? Will I need nsplugin wrapper to use the plugin? | 13:57 |

| LjL | nepolean: crontab doesn't support "x time from now", you need to give a specific time. "man 5 crontab" will give you the format | 14:03 |

| shajeershamras | nepolian hi | 14:04 |

| iceroot | can anyone name me the reason why "deja-dup" is pulling "libgnome-control-center1"? i dont see a reason why that is needed | 14:33 |
| Pici | iceroot: Its listed as a dependency. | 14:34 |
| iceroot | Pici: my question is "why it is listed" | 14:34 |
| MonkeyDust | Otacon22Uni so why are there timestamps for IPv4 but not for IPv6, you're asking? | 14:34 |
| Ziad | ok i was readinthe ubuntu wiki and i think my macbook will only work with ubuntu 10.10. where can i find it? | 14:35 |
| iceroot | Pici: i dont see anything in libgnome-control-center1 which is needed by deja-dup | 14:35 |
| CharminTheMoose | How can I insert Ascii codes with nano? | 14:35 |
| Pici | iceroot: Probably because its a tool designed for GNOME. Perhaps it creates an entry in the gnome-control-center? | 14:35 |
| ts2 | iceroot: because it's build with GNOME integration, probably | 14:35 |
| Otacon22Uni | MonkeyDust, yes, but they are TCP timestamps | 14:35 |
| Otacon22Uni | they prevent sequence number overlapping | 14:35 |
| iceroot | Pici: ts2 ah ok, yes that makes sense | 14:35 |
| Otacon22Uni | I don't understand why that option does not exists for ipv6 | 14:35 |
| airtonix | iceroot: it appears in the gnome-control-center. | 14:36 |
| MonkeyDust | Otacon22Uni i think that's beyond this channel, try #network | 14:36 |

| MonkeyDust | Pici "#network Channel is open." :) | 14:36 |
| iceroot | airtonix: but me .) but i guess there is no better way | 14:36 |
| ts2 | nivyaj: usually in /usr/local/ | 14:37 |
| airtonix | iceroot: yes there is. | 14:37 |
| LjL | MonkeyDust: yes, it's also, empty. | 14:37 |
| mbeierl | nivyaj, if it's not a system program, I would recommend creating a directory in your home and add that to your path | 14:37 |
| nivyaj | ts2: I thought I shouldn't touch /usr | 14:37 |
| airtonix | iceroot: use grsync to an external drive which uses zfs (via zfs fuse) | 14:37 |
| LjL | nivyaj: /usr/local is an exception though. but it's also valid to keep it in your home. | 14:37 |
| airtonix | iceroot: or just use zfs | 14:38 |
| nivyaj | LjL: home is where it lists the user on my computer. That's cool? | 14:38 |
| DJones | Ziad: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ But bear in mind that it will reach its end of life in April 2012 and won't be updated after that | 14:38 |
| mbeierl | Ziad, http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ | 14:38 |
| LjL | nivyaj: i mean the directory /home/yourusername (which can be shortened to ~/). you might want to make a "bin" directory inside it, but that's not strictly necessary. | 14:38 |
| mbeierl | DJones, sorry - lag here I guess :) | 14:39 |
| LjL | nivyaj: but if you want other users to be able to use the program too, then /usr/local it is (like /usr/local/bin) | 14:39 |
| iceroot | airtonix: deja-dup is fine, its using pgp by default and so on. the main problem i see is that all the programs are tested with gnome but when you dont have gnome they pull so much (in that case not needed) stuff | 14:39 |
| iceroot | airtonix: i bet grsync is pulling gnome-things too which i dont need | 14:39 |
| Ziad | mbeierl: will the new release support my old mac? | 14:39 |
| MonkeyDust | Ziad ask in #ubuntu+1 | 14:40 |
| Ziad | i really want ubutu but it seems the new release don't work on mine | 14:40 |
| Ziad | hmmm | 14:40 |
| nivyaj | LjL: got it. | 14:40 |

| aethelrick | nivyaj, that's what the "local" indicates... in /usr/local means... "made here" the package manager won't drop off anything there and break what you have, the converse is true... if you mess with things under system control, don't be surprised when your changes are overwritten | 14:46 |
| LjL | nivyaj: because it's handled by the package manager | 14:46 |

| ikonia | metadan: nice job | 15:30 |
| saganbyte | Sivik, that makes sense... coz i had used unetbootin | 15:30 |
| saganbyte | Sivik, thanks! | 15:30 |
| Yudra | xangua: i have that CD, but it still installes the packagemanager and screws it up | 15:30 |
| mBison | is i915 the right driver for Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics? | 15:31 |
| aethelrick | Sivik, what is your goal? if you need to run a KDE specific package... it may work with minimal requirements under another desktop | 15:31 |
| Sivik | saganbyte, try those instructions. I have used them before. | 15:31 |
| Sivik | aethelrick, its nothing to do with a GUI | 15:31 |
| MonkeyDust | mBison rather ask that in #hardware | 15:31 |
| Sivik | I'm trying to remove r8169 module for the network to use the r8168 driver instead | 15:32 |
| xangua | Yudra: well you never said exactly what is wrong with the package manager | 15:32 |
| Sivik | I can load the r8168, but not unload the r8169 | 15:32 |
| mBison | i thought this was ubuntu | 15:32 |
| Sivik | r8169 is the wrong module to be used and thus causing my network issue | 15:32 |
| Sivik | aethelrick, not a KDE/GUI issue | 15:32 |
| aethelrick | Sivik, sorry... named you by mistake, I meant Yudra | 15:32 |
| Sivik | aethelrick, oh ok, I was like, kde is not involved. | 15:32 |
| MonkeyDust | mBison in #ubuntu-offtopic, you'll find hardware geeks right now | 15:33 |
| Yudra | xangua: i think its a known bug, but it screws up the dpkg and then i cant use it at all | 15:33 |
| metadan | ikonia: hmmm, no fails again same thing | 15:33 |
| metadan | ikonia: if i ls /media/cdrom it sees the cd files | 15:33 |
| Yudra | it freeses when updating and/or installing new packages.....so it litterally is pointless | 15:33 |
| Sivik | awesome, no one seems to be able to help me | 15:34 |

| respond | all.. can i make own distro with ubuntu, such.. am need make acehrespond.iso | 15:34 |
| aethelrick | Sivik, have you tried "installing" the module then removing it... thus modprobe... followed by a modprobe -r | 15:34 |
| Sivik | aethelrick, yes, thats where it won't remove it, after I installed the new one | 15:34 |
| Yudra | aethelrick: to use Kubuntu as a normal operating system as a replacement for an OS not to be mentioned | 15:34 |
| MonkeyDust | respond there are about 150 ubuntu forks | 15:35 |
| respond | MonkeyDust, 150 ubuntu forks ? what that mean >.. | 15:35 |
| aethelrick | Sivik, I mean... modprobe r8169 then modprobe -r r8169 | 15:35 |
| aethelrick | Sivik, then try to install your new module r8168 | 15:35 |
| MonkeyDust | respond about 150 distros based on ubuntu | 15:36 |
| metadan | ikonia: could i use mnt or something? | 15:36 |
| ikonia | metadan: sorry, I missed the question, | 15:36 |
| respond | MonkeyDust, so... that aviable you mean. am can used own distro based on ubuntu... | 15:36 |
| metadan | ikonia: it failed - took longer than i thought - same thing, even though i'd linked cdrom to media/cdrom | 15:36 |
| CaptAnon | Does alsamixer work over ssh? | 15:36 |
| respond | MonkeyDust, but can i used diferent style for new distro ? some application maybe. | 15:37 |
| metadan | ikonia: so instead of symlinking could i mount it there? | 15:37 |
| aethelrick | Yudra, if you want kubuntu... install it... do you have a problem stopping you from doing this? or do you not know how? (please help me to help you) | 15:38 |
| ikonia | metadan: no | 15:38 |
| metadan | ikonia: cool | 15:38 |
| auronandace | respond: why do you need to make a ubuntu based distro? | 15:38 |
| ikonia | metadan: if the symlink doesn't work, mounting won't | 15:38 |
| ikonia | metadan: if you did ls -la /cdrom you could see the files correctly ? | 15:38 |

| ikonia | metadan: sorry it didn't work for you | 15:40 |
| aethelrick | Yudra, does you computer already have ubuntu on it? if not, download a kubuntu CD and pop it in. If it does then simply "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" in a terminal | 15:40 |
| LjL | Yudra: muon is a recommend, so you can install "kubuntu-desktop" without recommends, and then install all the *other* recommends | 15:41 |
| xangua | Yudra: you haven't even said the error, you just saids it may be a 'know bug' | 15:41 |

| LjL | Yudra: "sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install kubuntu-desktop" | 15:41 |

| respond | MonkeyDust, and am need shared that folder to on my new distro based from ubuntu ? | 15:41 |
| Yudra | aethelrick: it did, i had to reinstall something horribible, ill give it another go, and come back here once i start having the issue | 15:42 |

| mBison | #ubuntu-offtopic and ##hardware said they are not a support channel | 15:50 |
| Mrokii | Can somebody explain to me why Update Manager wants do deinstall Banshee, Cairo-Dock, gimp and a few other apps when I try to install Midori? Does that make any sense? | 15:50 |
| chiiiiiz | How can I tell that any new file will belong to the group funcky? I guess it is a gid problem... | 15:50 |
| mBison | MonkeyDust: #ubuntu-offtopic and ##hardware said they are not a support channel | 15:51 |
| LjL | mBison: google seems to confirm the driver is i915 | 15:51 |
| aethelrick | chiiiiiz, you can set the setgid bit on the directory... e.g. chmod g+s /your/dir and the files will be in the right group by default (when created) | 15:51 |
| mBison | do i can run compiz now? | 15:51 |
| xangua | Mrokii: it would make sence you share the output instead of especting us to guess ;) | 15:52 |
| chiiiiiz | chmod g+s /my/dir... where do I specify the group the new files must belong to? | 15:52 |
| Mrokii | xangua: What output? | 15:53 |
| aethelrick | chiiiiiz, you set that permission on the directory... then files made in that directory inherit the directories group | 15:53 |
| xangua | Mrokii: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 15:53 |
| aethelrick | chiiiiiz, thus chgrp on the directory to get a "default" group set (which I think you already did) | 15:53 |

| sanitree | hi all. having a problem with my ssh keys on ubuntu server 11.10: If I log in to my Ubuntu server it asks for a password instead of taking my key. If I then try log in a second time with the initial ssh session still running, the ubuntu box logs me in with my ssh key | 16:05 |
| sanitree | if i turn off password auth, it doesn't let me log on at all | 16:05 |

| imbezol | sanitree: probably your /var/log/auth.log, but take a look at syslog too | 16:10 |

| nichos | hi | 16:43 |
| mcriddles | well, i'm trying to "open with.." an application | 16:43 |
| mcriddles | the trouble is, the application is not on the list | 16:43 |
| chaospsychex | lol | 16:43 |
| mcriddles | nor in the "other applications" that are suggested | 16:43 |
| mcriddles | (yes, i'm new to linux) | 16:43 |
| chaospsychex | mcriddles: what application would u like to use to open the file? | 16:43 |
| mcriddles | i mean, it's really simple, i wanna use Sublime Text 2 to open up a text document | 16:44 |
| Pici | shaneo: How about the output of: dig ubuntu.com | 16:44 |
| chaospsychex | mcriddles: hit ALT-F2 and type in the application name | 16:44 |
| html | mcriddles, welcome to lunix/ubuntu | 16:44 |
| chaospsychex | mcriddles: auto-complete should help u finish entering it in, then u can open the file from within the app | 16:44 |

| shaneo | kazan screencaster | 16:45 |
| auronandace | !best | juho | 16:45 |
| ubottu | juho: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 16:45 |

| mcriddles | vildolin, you're welcome?.. i guess....? :P | 16:49 |
| auronandace | mcriddles: if the app you are trying to use is a windows one installed in wine i'mnot sure it would appear in that list | 16:49 |

| juho | ubuntu-tweak no communication | 16:50 |
| CaptAnon | I suppose are they just called clients? | 16:50 |
| Pici | shaneo: Hrm.. This should JustWork. | 16:50 |

| Seryth | CaptAnon: Many. Banshee, audacious, parole are all examples of music players. For video players: VLC, Movie player, Parole, mplayer, and tons more. | 16:52 |
| html | mcriddles, yes you can , | 16:52 |
| Mrokii | juho: What's the problem with Ubuntu Tweak? I've used it for a long time without almost any complaint. It makes tweaking stuff a lot more easier, imho. | 16:52 |
| auronandace | mcriddles: i've never heard of sublime text 2, is it some sort of web app? | 16:53 |
| CaptAnon | Thanks Seryth But I mean something that I can control over the command line | 16:53 |
| maxtmahem | is /etc/apt/sources.list.d a folder I can drop new source lists files into for them to automagially work? | 16:53 |
| mcriddles | no, it is a simple tool for opening text files | 16:53 |
| Seryth | CaptAnon: Ah. There are music players that do so, not sure about video players | 16:53 |
| html | jonh, dont post these links, its not even what your talkin about | 16:53 |
| mcriddles | auronandace, i simply want to open a textfile with something that is not in the "open with.." list. | 16:54 |
| auronandace | mcriddles: how did you install sublime text 2? | 16:54 |
| shaneo | maxtmahem: no but you can add sources to the file | 16:54 |
| bobweaver | mcriddles: press alt+f2 then enter <name of program> /path/to/file.txt | 16:54 |
| yairgo | this isn't ubuntu specific but, if I run `which git` the return value is /usr/bin/git, but if I run `git --version` the output is '-bash: /usr/local/bin/git: No such file or directory' this seems like a pathing issue, but how can the command `git` try to run from somewhere other than what `which git` returns? | 16:54 |
| mcriddles | auronandace, i didn't. it doesn't require an installation. | 16:54 |
| CaptAnon | Yes rhythmbox-client works well for music, But I would like to use video also | 16:54 |
| mcriddles | bobweaver, i want it to become the default application the file opens with. | 16:55 |
| Mrokii | mcriddles: I guess you already tried to add the app via the "add"-button in the file-information-window? | 16:55 |
| shaneo | CpatAnon: VLC would do it | 16:55 |
| bobweaver | mcriddles: open settings | 16:55 |
| auronandace | mcriddles: where did you get it from then? | 16:55 |
| mcriddles | Mrokii, i did. | 16:55 |
| bobweaver | mcriddles: what is program ? | 16:55 |
| Pici | mcriddles: Yes, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ is a path that you can drop files into. | 16:55 |
| shaneo | omg apt-get is taking sooooooo long | 16:55 |
| Pici | mcriddles: sorry, wrong person. | 16:55 |
| mcriddles | from here - http://www.sublimetext.com/2 | 16:55 |
| Pici | maxtmahem: Yes, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ is a path that you can drop files into. | 16:56 |
| Mrokii | mcriddles: well, if that didn't help I'd rellay recommend trying Ubuntu Tweak. | 16:56 |
| mcriddles | Mrokii, thanks, i will try that. | 16:56 |
| CaptAnon | shaneo, How do I do it with vlc?? | 16:56 |
| asdasdasdasda | hello | 16:56 |
| bobweaver | mcriddles: open terminal and type in : sudo loacte sublime what is the path ? then enter path into the default settings | 16:57 |
| bobweaver | mcriddles: locate | 16:57 |
| bobweaver | sorry | 16:57 |
| mcriddles | alright, let's assume i already know the path to the app | 16:58 |
| shaneo | CaptAnon: you can setup telnet interfaces on VLC | 16:58 |
| asdasdasdasda | i have a problem with my ubuntu 11.10... i want to use dual monitor, but always if i activate it the window borders, the launcher and the task bar is not longer visible... my system: ubuntu 11.10 64 bit, geforce 330 m | 16:58 |
| CaptAnon | for rhythmbox it is simply rhythmbox-client | 16:58 |
| CaptAnon | What is it for vlc | 16:58 |

| infid | bastidrazor: the line in that that says 'candidate'? | 17:00 |
| pangolin | mcriddles: in the "open with" window there should be a input box you can enter the path into. | 17:00 |
| zykotick9 | trkemist: pulse always requires ALSA, they are not the same thing | 17:00 |
| bastidrazor | infid: yes | 17:00 |
| trkemist | ok ... so basically I'll have 2 controls one for alsa and one for pulse? | 17:00 |
| trkemist | thats crazy | 17:00 |
| infid | bastidrazor: thanks | 17:00 |
| CaptAnon | shaneo, Can I not just ssh and talk to it through the command line? | 17:00 |

| shaneo | nsd_: sometimes things arnt so automatic | 17:22 |
| nsd_ | shaneo: That's not what I was after, but thanks anyway. (They're supposed to be pushing through the *stable* releases only) | 17:22 |

| Seryth | Is it possible to find out the RPM of my drive from terminal? | 17:23 |
| nsd_ | dlentz: Oh okay, so they're just behind schedule. I'll just wait then. | 17:23 |
| nsd_ | Seryth: I believe there is a tool to do that: hdparams or something like that maybe? | 17:23 |

| Ririshi | I'm completely new to Linux. I'm going to install linux on my Windows 7 machine. Can I make a partition for installing it to within the installer? | 17:24 |
| zykotick9 | Ririshi: yes, it will ask you to partition as one of the steps | 17:26 |
| MonkeyDust | Ririshi no, you need to have one available, but you *can* format it during installation | 17:26 |
| nsd_ | Ririshi: Yes, there is a step specifically for that. It presents you with a number of options for partitioning | 17:26 |
| elkng | was popularity of ubuntu increased after SOPA ? | 17:26 |
| zykotick9 | MonkeyDust: what? | 17:26 |
| nsd_ | MonkeyDust: Yeah, what? | 17:26 |
| nsd_ | You can create a partition. | 17:26 |

| ThePendulum | Greetings | 17:26 |
| zykotick9 | MonkeyDust: what? (i'm not going to bother) | 17:27 |
| nsd_ | MonkeyDust: Data loss only happens sometimes, but that is a good point. | 17:27 |
| nsd_ | Ririshi: Make sure you back up your data first, partitioning can potentially cause data loss. | 17:27 |
| Ririshi | zykotick9,MonkeyDust,nsd_ thank you for your help | 17:27 |
| ThePendulum | I was trying to run programs from a hard disk but I couldn't mark it as executable because the disk was formatted in NTSF. To what format should I format my disk to allow executable programs? | 17:27 |
| Seryth | Ririshi: You may want to look at Wubi if you've not used Linux before. It installs Ubuntu like it was a windows program. You can choose it at boot. However, if you like it, I don't advise using Wubi permanetly, as if you mess something up you can't recover it...at least not very well. | 17:27 |

| nsd_ | ThePendulum: You have linux installed on an NTFS partition? If that's a problem, there is an option you can set in fstab that will make everything have the executable bit (I don't remember it off the top of my head) | 17:28 |
| nsd_ | ThePendulum: See the mount and fstab man pages | 17:29 |

| bobo37773 | Natti: When your computer boots there are probably some options on the splash screen. | 18:00 |
| Natti | Yeah, I went to the BIOS setup and put removable devices as the preferred boot device from there | 18:01 |
| bobo37773 | Natti: Maybe something like boot order etc.. I know the screen is probably quick so you might need to check a few times. Also, how did you create the flash drive? | 18:01 |
| Natti | Using this method: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ | 18:02 |
| zykotick9 | Natti: your issue is not ubuntu related, perhaps ##hardware would be more help? | 18:02 |
| Natti | okay, thanks :) | 18:02 |
| urlin2u | BussDriver, not sure really but that defeats the reason to have it notify you. | 18:02 |
| bobo37773 | Natti: Look at your biossplash screen when your computer boots. Even though you changed the order you might still have to select it. | 18:03 |
| Natti | hmm, thanks | 18:03 |
| BussDriver | urlin2u: Not sure what you mean.. perhaps I'm not being specific enough. When I open thunderbird now, it goes through and says it's downloading all my folders... I can see it's taking up lots of space in ~/.thunderbird in my profile, too. I thought this only happened if I used POP3... I simply want thunderbird to act as a 'view' into the server on gmail. | 18:03 |
| Natti | Okay, I'll try to reboot again, fiddle around and see if there's any more settings that could affect it | 18:03 |
| Natti | thanks guys | 18:03 |

| urlin2u | BussDriver, not sure of the pop data transfer, I understood, I just don't have a definitive answer. | 18:06 |
| BussDriver | mbeierl: I don't see that option.. I see some stuff about selecting individual folders for syncing and some options about limiting syncing by age or size | 18:06 |
| MoDDD | hi all | 18:07 |
| mbeierl | BussDriver, might be different version then. I have under Synchronization & Storage, at top a check box for Message Synchronizing that sets "Keep messages for this account on this computer" | 18:07 |
| MerlynKorr | what could be doen to get a fix/ | 18:07 |
| BussDriver | mbeierl: Ah yes, there it is. Ok, I've unchecked that. Should it remove all those downloaded messages automatically then? | 18:08 |
| Oxymoron | Hi, I wonder, I get bash: binary cannot execute error. It worked once, but on reboot it didnt work anymore :S I am using Virtualbox. I think the problem is that Debian on Virtualbox is 32 bit and my host machine is 64 bit. | 18:08 |
| zykotick9 | MerlynKorr: perhaps you could re-word your issue? I have no idea what you mean, I imagine others might not either. | 18:08 |
| Oxymoron | Is it possible to recompile a 64 bit binary to 32 binary? | 18:09 |
| zykotick9 | Oxymoron: when are you getting the "bash: binary cannot execute" error? When you do what exactly? | 18:09 |
| MerlynKorr | my system acts like there is a virus, but i read somewhere that there arent those kinds of issues... | 18:10 |
| MerlynKorr | with these systems. | 18:10 |
| zykotick9 | Oxymoron: and no, you can't recompile binaries (you could recompile source) | 18:10 |
| Oxymoron | zykotick9: it happens when I execute a binary file I compiled myself in a school lab thing. | 18:10 |
| bentkus | how does it act when there is a virus? | 18:10 |
| mbeierl | BussDriver, that I do not know. But I think if you go into the .thunderbird directory and find/delete the indexes, etc it'll automatically do the right thing on next start of the app | 18:10 |
| Oxymoron | zykotick9: I have the source, but it doesnt seem to work recompile the source :S | 18:11 |
| bentkus | does it send millions of emails to unkown targets? | 18:11 |

| van | hi, how can i stop/remove apache which starts automatically when i log in? | 18:24 |
| _Marcus | I am trying to connect to a port, the program is running to accept it, the port is forwarded, and it's open in ufw, yet nothing outside of my computer can connect to it. Why is this happening? It cant be a port problem, as 80 is open and anyone outside of my network can connect | 18:24 |

| urlin2u | ron__, I didn't look if you were. | 19:00 |
| _Marcus | ron__: You should register your nick with NickServ first. Type "/msg nickserv help register" to get help with registering your nickname. You usually need to register your nick to talk on some channels. | 19:00 |
| BussDriver | I'm very confident. You cannot install kernel modules without being root. | 19:00 |
| ron__ | okay thanks. i'll figure out how to do that. i haven't used irc in many years. | 19:00 |
| BussDriver | You can do the chmod step as yourself, but you can't run that binary as yourself.. | 19:01 |
| BussDriver | In fact, you CAN do it, but it will immediately tell you you need to be root and exit. | 19:01 |

| drPoO | Hi all, I am running 10.04 LTS-server and the other day I got a "Kernel panic -not syncing VFS..." error that would prevent booting of the system. I fixed it by reverting to an older version of the kernel. Is there a way to permanently avoid this issue from happening again? | 19:22 |
| vivekimsit | what is .tmp video files | 19:23 |
| damselfly99 | madalin, how much space in the case, and how much money? | 19:23 |
| scottj | is there a gui tool that lets you build .xmodmap files to remap keys/modifiers? | 19:23 |
| acerimmer | drPoO: long answer short: no. Always keep one or two older kernels installed. Boot the older kernels via grub. | 19:23 |
| anthony | Thanks Rehhoff let me try that now I'm not very ubuntu savvy | 19:24 |

| pfifo | vivekimsit, that sound like the file isnt complete then, my torrents usually use .part instead of .tmp but I guess the tmp means its only a partial download | 19:27 |

| madalin | damselfly99: im not sure. lspci will list this ? | 19:29 |

| Rehhoff | hmm i have to look into that... and see if i can find anything that might be a help | 19:29 |
| owenll | anthony: I think it's a file created by the user and that's why you can't find it http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/tds4.2/tutorial/GettingStarted.html | 19:30 |

| madalin | damselfly99: let me look please ;) | 19:31 |
| pfifo | subb1, if your making your own kernel then you shouldn't need an initrd, unless your booting from raid/encryption/loop type of device in which case you build your own initrd to compliment your own kernel | 19:32 |
| thx | jonatasnona: -- escapes the -<option> , incase you have files with a "-" at the start of the name | 19:32 |
| drPoO | Has anybody here dealt with a "Kernel panic -not syncing VFS..." at boot and solved the problem? | 19:32 |

| Rehhoff | ssta: PHP is also a language where you easily make bugs xD | 20:07 |

| guntbert | !u | pozzz | 20:29 |
| ubottu | pozzz: U is the 21st letter of the modern latin alphabet. Neither 'U' nor 'Ur' are words in the English language. Neither are 'R', 'Y', 'l8', 'ryt', 'Ne1' nor 'Bcuz'.

| cperales | when i trying opening this image (earth photo from nasa)http://npp.gsfc.nasa.gov/images/VIIRS_4Jan2012.jpg my session its closed | 20:29 |
| eitch | hi guys. I've got a weird problem. I've got an Asus Zenbook on which I of course installed Ubuntu. Now my trackpad is just not working properly anymore. In Windows it works very nicely but in Ubuntu it sometimes just react to any pressure. Is there something I can do? Is this problem known? | 20:29 |
| pozzz | ubottu, guntbert, sorry | 20:29 |
| guntbert | cperales: with what browser? | 20:29 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: Yes I have the file. I burned it to a CD and I checked it. It is right. | 20:30 |
| pfifo | cperales, maybe nasa decided that they didnt mean to release that photo | 20:30 |
| acerimmer | eitch: take a look in your mouse settings. | 20:30 |
| pozzz | Ririsi do you have the Ubuntu file? | 20:30 |
| eitch | acerimmer, why? what would the problem be? | 20:30 |
| cperales | guntbert, at first i thought it was my browser but opening from desktop does the same effect | 20:30 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: yes i do. I said so already. | 20:30 |
| acerimmer | cperales: session killed everytime or just once? | 20:30 |
| eitch | I hhoked up a normal usb mouse and that works perfectly | 20:30 |
| pozzz | Ririsi Did you burn it as a iso file? | 20:31 |
| cperales | acerimmer, every time i try to open it | 20:31 |
| damselfly99 | cperales: I just tried your link. It's a *huge* jpeg, clearly too large for memory on most machine | 20:31 |
| acerimmer | eitch: touchpad settings might need to be tweaked. | 20:31 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: yes i did it with the first method. Right click on the .iso file and click on burn to disc. | 20:31 |
| graft | damselfly99: it's 8k*8k | 20:31 |
| pfifo | cperales, that is a nice photo | 20:31 |
| eitch | acerimmer, ok, i'll have a look | 20:31 |
| cannonfodder | hey you guys. i want apache to have access to my /var/svn folder which contains svn repositories...however, svnserve daemon is also going to be accessing it...i know based on documentation that i need to give apache permission to access this folder also, but if i were to chown -R that entire directory to apache:apache then the svndaemon which runs under svn:svn will not have access to it...so, i was wondering if a simple hack of doing a chown -R apac | 20:31 |
| graft | damselfly99: that'll take like 200M? maybe? | 20:31 |
| acerimmer | cperales: opens fine for me and I'm running VirtualBox AND firefox AND email. Suspect your gpu might have overloaded. This is an intense file. Any other graphics hiccups?? | 20:32 |
| devish | my don't have any upload speed in ubuntu 11.10 | 20:32 |
| cperales | damselfly99, yep but i have a lenovo b570, 8 GB of RAM | 20:32 |
| pozzz | If you check “Verify disc after burning”, it will verify that the ISO image has been burned correctly. Did you do that? | 20:32 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: no i didn't. what should i do now? | 20:32 |
| devish | i there a way to set upload speed | 20:32 |
| cperales | pfifo, i cant see it :( | 20:33 |
| devish | is there a way to set upload speed | 20:33 |
| pfifo | cannonfodder, put apache user and svn user into amutual group, and then make that mutual group have permissions on the folder | 20:33 |
| mystik | how do i get rid of this bloody awful unity thing...its so laggy and buggy | 20:33 |
| Nach0z | whoo. figured out a little haxxing of my perms and "find" and got stuff done. | 20:33 |
| mystik | im using 11.10 | 20:33 |
| urlin2u | cperales, try another browser. | 20:33 |
| mystik | !unity | 20:33 |
| ubottu | Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 20:33 |
| Jordan_U | !notunity | mystik | 20:33 |
| ubottu | mystik: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 20:33 |
| devish | as upload speed is 0 some sites are not working properly | 20:33 |
| hydrox24 | mystik: You need to choose another Window Manager | 20:33 |
| devish | !anyone | 20:34 |
| ubottu | A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 20:34 |
| kasii | with fourier series | 20:34 |
| Nach0z | One more question for yall: if I start up a .sh file in terminal, it SHOULD use the directory I'm cd'd into right then should be the directory it runs from yes? | 20:34 |
| cperales | urlin2u: this also happen opening it from desktop | 20:34 |
| finale | hi, on my computer with 11.10 the unity dash takes 4+ seconds to open | 20:34 |
| Ririsi | What is the difference between Download and Install and Try on CD or USB? | 20:34 |
| mystik | hydrox24, like which ones hydrox24 | 20:34 |
| hydrox24 | Nach0z: Yes, always | 20:34 |
| pozzz | Ririsi first of all, did you do md5sum to chect if the file was downloaded properly? | 20:34 |
| pozzz | *to check | 20:34 |
| acerimmer | Nach0z: right | 20:34 |
| hydrox24 | Hypnoz: what do you mean? | 20:34 |
| urlin2u | cperales, you have a slow connection, it shows here but at a really slow speed to finish. | 20:34 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: yes i did. It is able to read. | 20:34 |
| Nach0z | awesome. I'm gonna make a bash script right quick then... | 20:34 |
| kasii | is popin with fourier series | 20:34 |
| damselfly99 | cperales: at 8k x 8k by 24-bit color, it's just over the 16mb memory segment limit | 20:35 |
| Jordan_U | Ririsi: If you're asking about the links on the Ubuntu website, they both go to the exact same page. | 20:35 |
| kasii | do u know fourier series | 20:35 |
| Ririsi | Jordan_U thank you. | 20:35 |
| pozzz | Ririsi you should get a long string like "hshsgsg6t6s6a6ta6t6ast6" when doing the md5sum check. | 20:35 |
| hydrox24 | mystik: what do you mean? | 20:35 |
| kasii | most applicable in os | 20:35 |
| acerimmer | cperales: rather than open it, download and save it. THEN try opening | 20:35 |
| Jordan_U | Ririsi: You're welcome. | 20:35 |
| pozzz | Ririsi Is that what you got? | 20:36 |
| cperales | damselfly99, oh ok, but i can see it with gimp, why works there? | 20:36 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: no i used media check for the CD. now going to check it. | 20:36 |
| mystik | hydrox24, u said i had to use another window manager..besides gnome 3 what other ones are their | 20:36 |
| kasii | ubuntu linux kubuntu edubuntu lubuntu xubuntu | 20:36 |
| Hypnoz | tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive | 20:36 |
| kasii | yes | 20:36 |
| Hypnoz | I love linux error messages :) | 20:36 |
| kasii | why | 20:36 |
| damselfly99 | cperales: because gimp obviously is designed for huge images, so it doesn't depend on 16mb memory segments | 20:37 |
| cperales | damselfly99, ok, thx :) | 20:37 |
| pozzz | Scroll down for "MD5SUM on Windows" in one of the pages. Ririsi | 20:37 |
| kasii | HBYE | 20:37 |
| kasii | POA | 20:37 |
| Nach0z | kasii: ....? | 20:37 |
| kasii | yes | 20:37 |
| kasii | nashoz | 20:37 |
| Nach0z | what was that about? :| | 20:37 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: It is checking now. | 20:37 |
| Nach0z | linux is what all the 'buntus are built on. | 20:38 |
| Nach0z | the "why" is because people like different window managers. | 20:38 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: C396DD0F97BD122691BDB92D7E68FDE5 *ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso | 20:38 |
| jeagle | is there a command that will just list the folder name? like " ls -d */ " This works however, I don't want any ' / ' in the result... | 20:38 |
| Jordan_U | kasii: Please stop with the nonsense or you will be removed from the channel. | 20:38 |
| urlin2u | Nach0z, you have a actual problem? | 20:38 |
| kasii | okay | 20:38 |
| jeagle | is there a command that will just list the folder name? like " ls -d */ " This works however, I don't want any " / " in the result... | 20:38 |
| hydrox24 | mystik: Try xfce | 20:38 |
| Nach0z | urlin2u: Got my problem kinda fixed, now I'm helping with random people 'cuz I'm bored. | 20:38 |
| ssta | jeagle: find . -type d -maxdepth 1 | 20:39 |
| urlin2u | Nach0z, cool. | 20:39 |
| pozzz | it is ok | 20:39 |
| jeagle | woops | 20:39 |
| jeagle | sorry that was lag issue there. | 20:39 |
| kasii | Nach0z, yes am here | 20:39 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: Is that correct? | 20:39 |
| pozzz | when compared to the key here http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/MD5SUMS , Ririsi | 20:39 |
| kasii | Jordan what non sense | 20:39 |
| eitch | acerimmer, actually now the response seems a bit better, but now the right mouse button doesn't work... weird | 20:40 |
| kasii | bye | 20:40 |
| kasii | guys | 20:40 |
| kasii | gudnyt | 20:40 |
| kasii | nice chat here in irc | 20:40 |
| hydrox24 | kasii: cya | 20:40 |
| pozzz | Ririsi yes. Burn the CD again. try writing at a slower speed and check “Verify disc after burning” | 20:40 |
| finale | hey, i'm using 11.10 and the unity dash takes 4+ seconds to open | 20:40 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: I compared and it's exactly the same. | 20:40 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: okay... It takes a new CD =.= | 20:41 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, you can load a usb stick as well. | 20:41 |
| pozzz | burn on the same one. if it is RW | 20:41 |
| pozzz | or a USB stick | 20:41 |
| jeagle | ssta: that worked... kinda haha. I need something that will generate the same results at ls (no begining or end " ./ " in it. just the file name. | 20:41 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: how? | 20:41 |
| Socket- | Can anyone recomend a good CLI reader for usenet | 20:41 |
| Ririsi | pozzz: it's very cheap i think.. so no RW i think. | 20:42 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, there is a app called unetbootin on the web works great. | 20:42 |
| kasii | . | 20:42 |
| damselfly99 | cli reader? | 20:42 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: what does it do? | 20:42 |
| Socket- | command line interface reader for usenet/newsgroups | 20:42 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: oh i saw it thank you! | 20:42 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, loads the cd to a usb thumb and boots and runs like the cd but a little faster. | 20:42 |
| pozzz | makes an Ubuntu Live CD on a pendrive | 20:42 |
| Hypnoz | jeagle: la -d */ | sed 's/\/$//g' | 20:42 |
| droidfellow | i'm back, so after the installation and the cd pops out i then get the grub srenn i then hit enter on unbuntu with linux, i then get no login screen | 20:43 |
| Hypnoz | :) | 20:43 |
| jeagle | ssta: so for example... I just want a list of folder names that has this result " folder-name " not " ./folder-name " or " folder-name/ " | 20:43 |
| droidfellow | just a flashing curer | 20:43 |
| droidfellow | curser | 20:43 |
| guntbert | Socket-: try irssi | 20:43 |
| urlin2u | droidfellow, you see a black screen? | 20:43 |
| droidfellow | urlin2u yes | 20:43 |
| urlin2u | !nomodeset > droidfellow | 20:43 |
| jeagle | Hypnoz: That works great thank you! :) | 20:43 |
| ubottu | droidfellow, please see my private message | 20:43 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: can i use the usb afterwards for something else? | 20:43 |
| pozzz | Ririsi or try to start ubuntu with that old CD again | 20:43 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, yep | 20:44 |
| hydrox24 | droidfellow: ar you happy to use sed or awk? | 20:44 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u thanks! | 20:44 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, no problem | 20:44 |
| Socket- | guntbert: irssi has newgroup support? | 20:44 |
| damselfly99 | http://www.newsreaders.com/unix/utilities.html | 20:44 |
| pfifo | why do they call it a web browser? I spend 99% of my time searching | 20:44 |
| guntbert | Socket-: sorry, I misread your question | 20:44 |
| droidfellow | urlin2u black screen words like Begin loadin essential drivers..done | 20:44 |
| urlin2u | droidfellow, you may neeed a graphic driver nomodeset should get you in, to find this out. | 20:44 |
| hydrox24 | Socket-: It's lickely to have a plugin for it ;) | 20:44 |
| === regismesquita_ is now known as rdsm | ||
| Nach0z | Socket-: wikipedia says klibido | 20:45 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: which distribution should i choose? NetInstall, HDMedia, or Live | 20:46 |
| Nach0z | Socket-: I'd suspect klibido is a KDE package or something, another one that I'm seeing is hellanzb | 20:47 |
| Socket- | sounds guish | 20:47 |
| Socket- | thanks for looking though | 20:47 |
| === Guest52083 is now known as Slor | ||
| Nach0z | Socket-: hellanzb is specifically listed as non-gui | 20:47 |
| droidfellow | urlin2u i typed !nomodeset at the prompt but nothing happened | 20:47 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, you can use the ISO you have check disc image and find it. | 20:47 |
| Nach0z | in fact you gotta download GUI packages to get a GUI for it :| | 20:47 |
| urlin2u | droidfellow, read the link it has to be inserted in the kernel at the grub menu. | 20:47 |
| urlin2u | droidfellow, the bots private message has a link | 20:48 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: oh good idea thank you. | 20:49 |
| droidfellow | ok new to all this stuff | 20:49 |
| droidfellow | will check | 20:49 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, I always use a thumb, it is just faster, I have usb loader that can load multiple ISO as well and boot all. | 20:49 |
| pozzz | Ririsi | 20:49 |

| LukeNukem | hello | 20:51 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, np. D | 20:51 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, howdy. | 20:51 |
| LukeNukem | ive burned ubuntu iso to usb using unetbootin | 20:51 |
| LukeNukem | i run wubi.exe but it does not let me install alongside windows, it asks me to reboot into live cd and instal lfrom there.i dont want to do that | 20:52 |
| LukeNukem | im afraid i will mess up my windows installation and i have a lot of work on it sooo | 20:52 |
| pozzz | Ririsi no, nothing. accident | 20:52 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, you have to boot the thumb for alongside, wub is justa file in windows. | 20:52 |
| urlin2u | wubi* | 20:52 |
| Ririsi | I have to delete the files that were on the stick first. I will backup them/ back them up. | 20:52 |
| LukeNukem | boot the thumb? | 20:52 |
| LukeNukem | im not sure how to :\ | 20:52 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, set the bios to read the usb first. | 20:53 |
| pozzz | LukeNukem choose in BIOS? | 20:53 |
| Ririsi | how to choose if my PC will start from hard drive or the USB? | 20:53 |
| LukeNukem | oh you guys meant thumb drive.. | 20:53 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u:pozzz: oh lol failure | 20:53 |
| LukeNukem | yea ive set that, but i dont want to do the manual install :\ | 20:53 |
| pfifo | LukeNukem, you could always try ubuntu on a different computer until your comfortable with the installation process. You might be interested in emulation with VMware, if you dont have a 2nd old computer available. | 20:53 |
| === wolf is now known as Guest58905 | ||
| urlin2u | Ririsi, on booting? | 20:53 |
| LukeNukem | ive installed ubuntu before but i just like installing with wubi, its easier.and i dont have to mess around with file formats n so on | 20:54 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: I'm deleting the old files and backing them up now. | 20:54 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, cool | 20:54 |
| pfifo | LukeNukem, ok then why isnt wubi running? | 20:54 |
| LukeNukem | i launch wubi and this is what i get | 20:54 |
| LukeNukem | http://gyazo.com/a6256e8e57b70bcc9ca1303875b051e7.png?1327610733 | 20:54 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, your best tool is a cd if there is a problem. | 20:55 |
| === Faint is now known as _Marcus | ||
| LukeNukem | god i tried a dvd, but i burned it once, it completed, put it back in says its empty, burned three times now it wont even load into windows :\ | 20:55 |
| LukeNukem | ok i click demo and full installation and i get this | 20:55 |

| LukeNukem | normally wubi asks me which drive to install in, how much space to use, username so on | 20:56 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, what happens if you hit the demo or full installation? | 20:56 |
| LukeNukem | urlin2u, http://gyazo.com/e06217f9089a76275401fa0b6f21f666.png?1327610767 | 20:56 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: now deleting the files on the usb and then i'll make the boot-USB | 20:57 |
| meerkats | in unity, how do I change the name of an application? | 20:57 |
| meerkats | whats right below the icon | 20:57 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, what release is the ISO? | 20:57 |
| theadmin | meerkats: I don't think Unity has a menu editor anymore. Edit the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications/ manually. | 20:57 |
| austnix | i keep getting this error wiht a fresh nstall : E: /var/cache/apt/archives/boot-sav-gui_3.11-0ppa2~oneiric_all.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/cleancommon-translations.mo', which is also in package boot-repair-common 3.0-0ppa37~oneiric | 20:57 |
| jenia | hello everyone. i want to monitor netowkr traffic for all the computers on my network | 20:57 |
| jenia | is there a way to do that? | 20:57 |
| LukeNukem | 11.10 urlin2u | 20:57 |
| jenia | maybe theres a program that contacts the router and gets that information? | 20:58 |
| hydrox24 | jenia: unless you want to slow things down, and use cracking/forensics tool, you'll need to build a router box I think | 20:58 |
| austnix | jenia: use a DD-WRT router | 20:58 |
| meerkats | theadmin, step forward huh? | 20:58 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, and it is the full ISO? To be honest hardly anyone here uses wubi,so getting tech help for it is kind of a bit of a wait. | 20:58 |
| hydrox24 | jenia: DD-WRT may work too? | 20:58 |
| theadmin | meerkats: Heh :P | 20:58 |
| damselfly99 | is there a console command to display and control multicast filter settings? | 20:58 |
| LukeNukem | urlin2u, say i would be doing a manual install, what would i choose as the partition format? | 20:59 |
| fAz4 | i have a very big folder with lots of files, which compression algorithm is faster ? ZIP takes an hour | 20:59 |
| LukeNukem | and boot loader will be mess with GRUB >> windows boot manager >> windows | 20:59 |
| LukeNukem | so on and so forth | 20:59 |
| === Knorre`BNC is now known as Knorre | ||
| LjL | fAz4: gzip is fast, but i think zip isn't slow either. i suspect they're both on the fast side of things. | 20:59 |
| em | is there anything "wrong" with using a PPA to backport in a philosophical sense of wrong? | 20:59 |
| jenia | okay thanks so very much | 20:59 |
| theadmin | LjL: gzip compresses single files, not folders... | 21:00 |
| pfifo | LukeNukem, have you ever tried vmware or qemu? | 21:00 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: almost done. now going to make the boot-USB | 21:00 |
| LjL | theadmin: err, that's easily solved with tar surely? | 21:00 |
| fAz4 | LjL: the file size is not important for me just compression time | 21:00 |
| LukeNukem | pfifo, a long time aog did a manual intall on vmware | 21:00 |
| theadmin | LjL: Yeah indeed, but that's already double stuffing xD Depends on speed of tar AND speed of gz | 21:00 |
| LukeNukem | i believe it was on kaola | 21:00 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, first you want to make sure you know the type of drive setup you have if a standard mbr you can only have 4 primary partitions or 3 primaries and a extended which would contain logical ext4 partitions for ubuntu. | 21:00 |
| LukeNukem | karmic kaola or whatever it was called | 21:00 |
| Pici | fAz4: You may want to take a look at this, and use whatever is fastest and most accessable to you: http://www.maximumcompression.com/index.html | 21:00 |
| guntbert | fAz4: or you just use tar: terribly quick, no compression :) | 21:01 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: place used to preserve files across reboots? | 21:01 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, that is just a persistent option if you wanted to run the thumb and have it save stuff not needed for a install. | 21:02 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u okay thanks ill just install it. | 21:02 |
| pfifo | LukeNukem, I recommend you try vwmare again, or qemu which is what wubi most likely uses | 21:02 |
| urlin2u | Ririsi, make sure that you have the load pointed at the thumb in the drive dropdown as well. | 21:02 |
| LukeNukem | pfifo, um im pretty sure wubi installs it as an operating system and not a virtual pc. | 21:02 |
| pozzz | drPoO Still can help? | 21:03 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: you mean i have to choose the right usb stick? | 21:03 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, wubi is a pseudo virtual it s a file in windows. | 21:03 |
| urlin2u | is* | 21:03 |
| LukeNukem | ok manual install it is then | 21:03 |
| drPoO | pozzz, refresh my noggin please... what was the problem? | 21:03 |
| LukeNukem | i shall be on irc from my sisters laptop so you guys can guide me on the partition problems or anything | 21:04 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: it makes the usb booter now | 21:04 |
| urlin2u | LukeNukem, take notice of what I said if you add to many partitions you will have a big problem, also clone the windows OS first. | 21:04 |
| ssfdre38 | how can i fix this error http://paste.ssfdre38.com/43 | 21:04 |
| pozzz | drPoO http://pastebin.com/m1fxxLqy | 21:05 |
| pfifo | ssfdre38, run `export LC_ALL=C` and `export HOME=/root` | 21:05 |
| pozzz | drPoO trying to get files from a dead hhd on WinXP | 21:06 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: I will try to boot from there. I will come back and say if it worked. See you soon. | 21:06 |
| Ririsi | urlin2u: The USB-Booter is done btw | 21:06 |
| drPoO | pozzz, so you are currently unable to mount the NTFS partition using an ubuntu livecd, is this correct? | 21:06 |
| * Ririsi is going to try to install Ubuntu on his PC. | 21:06 | |
| coreyo | My lightdm will not start automatically at boot time, I am just dumped into a login console. /etc/X11/default-display-manager properly points to "/usr/sbin/lightdm" . If I install another display manager, the other display manager appears to work just fine. Any suggestions? | 21:07 |
| pozzz | drPoO I cannot see it neither via the console or in a file browser. BUT I havent tried to force mount. I fear it is too risky | 21:07 |
| drPoO | pozzz, could you pastebin the output of "ls /dev/sd*" and "ls /dev/hd*" | 21:07 |

| vasitsiv | Hello, I have a partition problem (actually not me, a friend). So he installed linux because winXP got ruined. He had a C: and D: drive. I guided him through phone to delete C: and create a /,/home, and swap partition. After the installation was done, he opened ubuntu and couldn't mount his D: drive. I told him to check gparted and the D: drive was inside the extended partition with /home and swap. How can he read the ntfs partition | 21:08 |
| dies_irae | theadmin: androide asus tablet is not shouwing up | 21:08 |
| LukeNukem_ | hello | 21:08 |
| drPoO | pozzz, first you need to find out which one of your devices is the one that has the NTFS partition, then you can mount it | 21:08 |
| theadmin | dies_irae: Configure it to be used as USB Mass Storage in Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> USB Mode and then plug the USB cable in. | 21:09 |
| drPoO | pozzz, actually could you pastebin "fdisk -l" please | 21:09 |

| drPoO | pozzz, stupid question but.... are you sure that the HDD that has windoze is plugged in to your motherboard? | 21:16 |
| pozzz | drPoO is it possible it is not after the fall? | 21:17 |
| pozzz | did not open it | 21:17 |
| drPoO | pozzz, does your BIOS recognize the HDD?? | 21:17 |
| drPoO | pozzz, reboot, go into your BIOS and make sure that the HDD in question is being recognized, then load the livecd and run "fdisk -l" | 21:18 |
| pozzz | drPoO I went into BIOS but don't remember now. | 21:18 |

| dies_irae | I need to transfer files. | 21:19 |
| telltree | Hi everyone? Can I just ask a question? | 21:19 |
| sskalnik | !ask | 21:19 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 21:19 |
| pozzz | drPoO and it is actually Kubuntu 10.04. I just had it on a CD | 21:19 |
| dies_irae | in the next few minutes, not this afternoon, not tomorrow, not next week. | 21:19 |
| pozzz | drPoO do you think it may be too old? | 21:20 |
| sskalnik | !patience | dies_irae | 21:20 |
| ubottu | dies_irae: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 21:20 |
| theadmin | dies_irae: When you plug the USB to the device, do you see the "USB Storage Ready" icon in the top left corner (i.e. the device's notification area)? | 21:20 |
| drPoO | pozzz, i doubt it.... but if your HDD is recognized by the BIOS and "sudo fdisk -l" still outputs nothing... I would try a newer version, but thats just a bad guess | 21:20 |
| dies_irae | theadmin: I see ASUS Sync and Debug Mode | 21:20 |
| javelinboard | well, imagine that | 21:21 |

| gartral | theadmin: not ~/src/12EXT | 21:25 |
| nullucas | pozzz, I read about parley, and it seems like a spaced-repetition program... what I meant was something that runs in the background (like KAlarm) which can also schedule stuff randomly (and I don't think KAlarm can) | 21:25 |
| theadmin | gartral: Ah, I guess I mistyped the command a bit | 21:25 |
| Ririsi | I hit the enter button by accident =.= and i am not patient enough lol | 21:25 |

| vasitsiv | if no1 knows, can you point somewhere that I can find some info? | 21:36 |
| theadmin | Ivoz_: Not sure what Ubuntu calls em, sorry, in my case it'd be just "nvidia" but then again I'm not on Ubuntu | 21:36 |

| Ivoz_ | theadmin: I only have access to the filesystem right now, the kernel won't boot... guess why | 21:37 |
| theadmin | gartral: No, the link is permanent, the system will just report it as "broken" when the drive is missing or mounted elsewhere | 21:37 |
| hydrox24 | vasitsiv: strange issue, I guess it's just a rather obscure problem | 21:37 |
| gartral | theadmin: understood, perfect, thank you so much | 21:37 |
| theadmin | Ivoz_: Heh I see, boot with this as your kernel parameters: rw init=/bin/bash | 21:38 |
| theadmin | Ivoz_: Kind of always-working recovery mode xD | 21:38 |
| recon69_lap | redrocket: is it possible that both versions have the same filename | 21:38 |
| vasitsiv | hydrox24: yup.. he needs the files that are in the ntfs drive and I can't help him :/ | 21:38 |
| Ivoz_ | theadmin: this is in modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf: http://pastie.org/3259135 | 21:39 |
| hydrox24 | vasitsiv: so why can't he mount it? what's the error exactly? | 21:39 |
| theadmin | Ivoz_: Again, I'm not sure what on Earth is the current Ubuntu module naming scheme, sorry | 21:40 |
| Ivoz_ | theadmin: I also have an xorg.conf which I'm guessing will fuck things up if I don't change it :/ | 21:40 |
| Ivoz_ | theadmin: how do I put in kernel parameters while booting? | 21:40 |
| theadmin | Ivoz_: You can very well just delete the xorg.conf for X to autoconfigure -_- Also, as for the kernel params, you need to get to the GRUB menu (Escape in pre-Karmic, Left Shift in post-Karmic) and it should be pretty obvious from there, just edit the kernel line, replace the "ro" with "rw" and add init=/bin/bash at the end | 21:41 |
| recon69_lap | vasitsiv: have you tried using a live cd and mounting the ntfs drive to that, no idea if that would help though | 21:41 |
| hydrox24 | Ivoz_: you can edit them in grub by hitting the e key while on the relevant kernel line | 21:41 |
| h00k | !language | Ivoz_ | 21:41 |
| ubottu | Ivoz_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 21:41 |
| vasitsiv | hydrox24: the ntfs is a logical partition inside the extended partition. It doesn't appear in nautilus. | 21:41 |

| pozzz | Daniel | 22:02 |
| pozzz | Great tip. I�ve been using this strategy for several months, but I would run the “ntfsfix /dev/yourfixeddisk” command before trying to mount with the ntfs-3g module. This fixes the partition errors and therefore there is no need to do the “-force” option in the mounted partition., vasitsiv | 22:02 |
| pllum | ciao | 22:02 |
| DaemonFool | what about the text? | 22:02 |

| aeon-ltd | chipmonk: nvidia | 22:26 |

| jeagle | iceroot: Well, right now I use a script that joins PDF's and uses Ghost Script to merge and bookmark with pdfmarks | 22:27 |
| pozzz | Ririshi maybe your computer is too old? | 22:27 |

| jeagle | iceroot: So far everything works, but I think to circumvent it, before I merge, when I convert each file type I can try pdftk to join text files with the PDF. :) | 22:28 |
| pozzz | Ririshi but I cannot find the right page. It should be next to your download link or somewhere | 22:28 |

| pozzz | ok. goodbye everyone | 22:28 |
| jeagle | iceroot: I've seen that, ghost script seems to be a little better since it preserves pre-existing bookmarks. :) | 22:29 |
| iceroot | jeagle: or build anything in LaTeX :) your pdfs and normal text-files (but i guess its an overkill) | 22:29 |
| jeagle | iceroot: haha yeah! All the code is written, I think you have given me enough info to make pdftk work before I join with ghost script! :) | 22:29 |

| TheTinyToon | A Question regarding the Ubuntu Developer Week: Trying to install the lernid-package, it seems most dependencies are unauthenticated, despite being in the right repo. Anyone who has the same Problem? | 22:33 |
| dies_irae | how to mount with mtpfs?? I got 800 snes games I need to transfer ASAP!! | 22:33 |
| aBound | /mode $me +x | 22:33 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: android is mounted like any other ext device | 22:33 |
| aBound | Blah! | 22:34 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: sudo mount /mnt/foo/ /dev/sdx1 (replace x with the drive) | 22:34 |
| Ririshi | pozzz: almost done making new booter | 22:34 |
| dies_irae | iceroot: k | 22:34 |
| bastidrazor | iceroot: isn't that syntax in reverse? /dev/... should be first then the mount point 2nd? | 22:35 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: there is nothin special needed and no mtp is needed, its a normal partition | 22:35 |
| TheTinyToon | could anyone try to install the lernid-package please? | 22:35 |
| forteller | How do I get to Grub while booting? I've tried holding Shift, Tab, Esc, Del. Nothing works. | 22:35 |
| iceroot | bastidrazor: yes of course | 22:35 |

| TheTinyToon | lmontrieux: could you apt-cache showpkg lernid and give me the ppa you're using? | 22:37 |
| iceroot | jeagle: just found it in my firefox-bookmarks | 22:37 |
| dies_irae | iceroot: interesting is mounted already, however, there's only ONE empty folder, 'Playlists' | 22:37 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: sudo fdisk -l to see the partitons of your device | 22:38 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: my android is providing two partitons, / and /sdcard | 22:38 |
| jeagle | iceroot: Thank you Iceroot, though my problem is not joining pdfs :) I have all that solved. my problem is layering text over a pdf so a user can select text on a pdf document. :) | 22:38 |
| Ririshi | I'm going to sleep guys. I'll try it tomorrow. I got school until 3 so it'll be wuite late. | 22:38 |
| dies_irae | for being linux based Android is making it hell'vu convoluted!! | 22:38 |

| iceroot | jeagle: luckily i never had to fight with something like that | 22:39 |
| lmontrieux | TheTinyToon, ... which isn't a ppa, it's an "official" repo mirror | 22:39 |
| iceroot | dies_irae: also see #android | 22:39 |
| jeagle | iceroot: yeah haha. It's a tough hurdle I think! haha | 22:39 |
| iceroot | jeagle: everything else would be boring | 22:39 |
| TheTinyToon | lmontrieux: yup, figured... | 22:40 |
| TheTinyToon | lmontrieux: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade fixed the problem, I guess the keychain was out of sync | 22:40 |
| recon69_lap | ok, urban terror now works :-D, thx everyone for the help, i'm off to shoot so noobs :P | 22:40 |
| TheTinyToon | lmontrieux: thanks for the help! :) | 22:40 |
| jeagle | iceroot: yeah haha! but pdftotext is interesting, now if there is something out there that can layer it on top of a pdf, that would be awesome haha. | 22:40 |
| jeagle | iceroot: it's definitely made my brain hurt trying to get it to work ha! | 22:41 |
| sprzybilla | ahoy mateys, if I want to change my screen excapt from ctrl-a to ctrl-o I need to add 'escape ^o' to my ~/.screenrc correct? | 22:41 |
| sprzybilla | escape* | 22:41 |
| iceroot | jeagle: maybe imagemagick can act on pdfs too | 22:41 |
| iceroot | jeagle: it can do exactly what you want on images | 22:42 |
| jeagle | iceroot: Yeah, I was looking at that. but doesn't it only do one page at a time? | 22:42 |
| jeagle | iceroot: I have tif files that are multiple pages in length :( | 22:42 |
| iceroot | jeagle: that should be no problem for imagemagick | 22:42 |
| iceroot | jeagle: an image always only have one page | 22:43 |
| jeagle | iceroot: hmm. I'll take a look. | 22:43 |
| jeagle | iceroot: I would agree with that logic, however, somehow these tif files have like 2-3 pages lol | 22:43 |
| iceroot | jeagle: but only in size | 22:43 |
| iceroot | jeagle: or real pages? | 22:44 |
| jeagle | iceroot: I'm not sure what you mean? :) | 22:44 |

| hydrox24 | abstrakt: uncheck the four kernel updates everytime in the update manager | 22:46 |
| abstrakt | hydrox24, really? every time? that's lame | 22:46 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: set the metapackage on hold | 22:46 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: but why? | 22:46 |
| abstrakt | i thought there was something I could add to i.e. my /etc/apt.conf or something | 22:46 |
| abstrakt | iceroot, i'm just distrustful of kernel updates | 22:46 |
| undecim | abstrakt: distrustful? | 22:47 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: they are important for security fixes | 22:47 |
| jeagle | iceroot: haha, yeah, well, even if I can get imagemagick to convert a tiff to pdf like... " convert (insert make text readable command) inpute.tif output.pdf " | 22:47 |
| abstrakt | esp when running e.g. nvidia drivers and other 3rd party drivers | 22:47 |

| dies_irae | still mtpfs should be installed and set up by default to support Android tablets. | 22:47 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: use the drivers from the repos then they are build always against the current kernel | 22:48 |
| spartan2276 | What is the command in CLI for shutting down a server? | 22:48 |
| abstrakt | spartan2276, depends on the server | 22:48 |

| dies_irae | spartan2276: killall? | 22:48 |
| abstrakt | i still have a few issues | 22:48 |
| spartan2276 | iceroot, this will turn off the actual Ubuntu server correct | 22:48 |
| dies_irae | oh, a server box, NOT server program lawl. | 22:48 |
| iceroot | spartan2276: it will shutdown the pc you executed the command on | 22:49 |
| abstrakt | but right now, i was just wondering about this thing, cuz i'm under the impression that there was a way to i.e. ignore linux-* in some config file to prevent kernel updates | 22:49 |
| iceroot | spartan2276: sudo halt of course instead of halt | 22:49 |
| theadmin | abstrakt: There sure is | 22:49 |
| dies_irae | spartan2276: unplug the power cord also works | 22:49 |

| abstrakt | echo "linux* hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections | 22:50 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: why globs? | 22:50 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: as i told you 2 times, use the metapackage | 22:50 |
| abstrakt | or will i need to do that for each of the (apparently four?) kernel packages | 22:50 |
| iceroot | abstrakt: as i told you 3 times, use the metapackage | 22:50 |
| savage2005 | i need a good program that will create a bootable image on a cd and a thumb stick any suggestions? | 22:51 |

| abstrakt | iceroot, you are so far rude and unhelpful, theadmin was much more useful, thanks for trying though | 22:51 |

| dies_irae | so mtpfs is planned to be integrated to 12.04?? | 22:58 |

| mustr | *permission to kill X | 23:14 |
| theadmin | _B00: You need to run that with sudo | 23:14 |
| mustr | you may try with sudo | 23:14 |

| _B00 | AH I have rebooted the server box with no monitor plugged in before. Would this stop the X server starting? | 23:16 |
| slugzzz | Hi! What is an easy way to give java more memory? | 23:16 |
| mustr | _B00: No, it won't. I guess your server was configured earlier not to run X. This is very common for server boxes | 23:17 |
| _B00 | Okay cool. Thank you mustr | 23:17 |

| azneita | newbie question: is it ok to install 11.10 packages to 10.04LTS? | 23:25 |
| acerimmer | !backports|azneita | 23:25 |
| ubottu | azneita: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:25 |
| azneita | ubottu, if you happen by manila, i'll buy you a beer! | 23:26 |

| azneita | thanks | 23:27 |

| _Marcus | ect0bi0l0gist: I am using HydraIRC | 23:28 |
| acerimmer | ect0bi0l0gist: chatzilla plugin to firefox | 23:29 |
| ags_ | what is the official sip client in ubuntu 11.10? | 23:29 |
| ect0bi0l0gist | i'm overwhelmed by the sheer number of options for irc clients | 23:29 |
| theadmin | ags_: There is none | 23:29 |
| _Marcus | If I was less lazy I would make one myself | 23:29 |
| ect0bi0l0gist | i'm trying xchat-gnome atm | 23:30 |
| ect0bi0l0gist | that would be a lot of coding! | 23:30 |
| dlentz | xchat is cool, but i never found anything close to mirc on linux (other than running mirc in wine) | 23:30 |
| ect0bi0l0gist | yeah me too | 23:31 |
| ale__ | ist | 23:31 |
| ale__ | list | 23:31 |

| azneita | just added backports... still can't see libparse-http-useragent-perl | 23:35 |
| azneita | can i just get the deb from 11.10 and install it on 10.04? | 23:36 |
| theadmin | azneita: No. You need to run apt-get update after adding a repo though | 23:37 |

| neatbook | on shell script FILES="$(basename $i)" dosnt work, what is the problem?? | 23:41 |
| === Knorre is now known as Knorre`BNC | ||
| pfifo | FILES=`basename $i` | 23:45 |
| Slart | neatbook: I don't see a problem.. it works when I try it here | 23:46 |
| === elijah is now known as Guest32824 | ||
| Slart | neatbook: perhaps the problem is somewhere else in your script | 23:46 |
| neatbook | Yea it turns out that i used PATH as one of my variables LOL | 23:47 |
| Slart | neatbook: ahh.. that might explain it | 23:47 |
| neatbook | hehehe noob here | 23:47 |
| pfifo | neatbook, dont use all cap variables | 23:47 |
| neatbook | is it bad? that is how my teacher did it in his examples, he always uses cap varibales | 23:48 |
| pfifo | neatbook, well the system already uses all caps for all variables, its a simple easy way to prevent clashes | 23:48 |
| neatbook | oh | 23:49 |
| neatbook | i see now... | 23:49 |
| ninjai | I used mount to mount a SAMBA share and now my user can't write to the directory I mounted. I used sudo to mount it. | 23:50 |
| ilija | hy i want ash how good is bleachbit software is | 23:50 |
| pfifo | of course if you want to use all caps, you could always check to makesure their not in use before hand | 23:50 |
| Ivoz_ | atm I'm i'm running linux 3.0.0-14, but only because 15 wouldn't boot because of nvidia drivers. How do I install them so they're compatible with 15? | 23:51 |
| overclucker | neatbook: type env | 23:51 |
| Ivoz_ | will simply remove and reinstalling them work? | 23:52 |
| Ivoz_ | or will that build them for 14, because that's what I'm reinstalling them under currently? | 23:52 |
| Dr_Willis | could boot to the -15 kernel in text mode, or try nomodeset option and reinstall them. | 23:53 |
| Dr_Willis | but i thought it was supposed to auto-do-this-stuff :) when updateing the kernels | 23:53 |
| dlentz | Ivoz_, you should be using dkms | 23:53 |
| theadmin | ilija: It's pretty good, can clean a lot of useless stuff out (although be careful not to clear your browser stuff, because you might want that) | 23:54 |
| muster | ninjai: try mouting the samba mount from file manager | 23:54 |
| neatbook | ok thanks!! | 23:54 |
| ninjai | muster, can't do that. | 23:55 |
| Ivoz_ | Dr_Willis: so did I, until I did a normal software update and it refused to boot on restart... | 23:56 |
| Ivoz_ | dlentz: how do you mean? I'm not familiar | 23:56 |
| muster | ninjai: then you may try the -o uid option | 23:56 |
| supercom32 | I have a new PC which has a display port and HDMI port only. If I need to install ubuntu, would it work strictly over HDMI? Or would I need special drivers installed first before it would even output any picture via HDMI? | 23:56 |
| Dr_Willis | could be some bug with the newer kernel Ivoz_ | 23:56 |
| ninjai | muster, what does that do? | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | supercom32: hdmi works fine here on the 4+ machines ive tried it on. | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | supercom32: sometimes the sound may be an issue over hdmi | 23:57 |
| Slart | supercom32: I've used the hdmi port of my nvidia card without problems.. but I suppose it could be different from graphics card to graphics card | 23:57 |
| cannonfodder | hey does anyone know the option to open an ssh tunnel on a certain port? i cant seem to find it in my man page...i used it before though but cant recall...it was really simple all i think i had to do was specify the correct option after "ssh" then specify a port. at that point i could go into my web browser and proxy it through localhost:sshtunnelport | 23:57 |
| muster | ninjai: when you mount through sudo, the mounted dir will take on root privileges, with uid option you can give those permissions to yourself | 23:57 |
| dlentz | dkms rebuilds kernel modules automatically when a new kernel is installed | 23:57 |
| supercom32 | Dr_Willis: So the low resolution that systems initially start off with show up fine over HDMI? | 23:57 |
| ninjai | muster, I'm trying to look for a way to mount without sudo for 1 user. | 23:58 |
| muster | canonfodder: -L:xx:server:yyyy | 23:58 |
| pp7__ | what are the best ubuntu news sites? | 23:58 |
| Dr_Willis | supercom32: depends on what you mean. Grub2 has its own res settings. depending on the chipset i have had to use the nomodeset option untill i get the drivers intalled | 23:58 |
| Ivoz_ | dlentz: yeah, I think it's done that when I've been reinstalling it | 23:58 |
| muster | ninjai: its hard without sudo, unless you do it from file browser | 23:58 |
| Dr_Willis | pp7__: i tend to read the omgubuntu and webupd8 blog sites | 23:58 |
| pp7__ | Dr_Willis: me too but any others apart from those? | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ninjai: you can make a fstab entry for the shares. | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | pp7__: never noticed. | 23:59 |
| ninjai | muster, I'm running CLI, ubuntu server. I mainly need a way to mount it so that this user can have write access to the share | 23:59 |
| pp7__ | haha same here | 23:59 |
| dlentz | Ivoz_, then why doesn't it work with 3.0.0-15, is it a bug? | 23:59 |
| ninjai | Dr_Willis, I did that. Still no write access for one of my users | 23:59 |
| dat789 | hello , newbie here | 23:59 |
| supercom32 | Dr_Willis: How do you do that if you can't see anything on your HDMI display? I worry that some bootup sequences, or bios screen will show blank on the HDMI monitor since a low res may not show up right. | 23:59 |
| dfabb | halloooooo | 23:59 |
| _Marcus | Halo | 23:59 |
| _Marcus | Hallo* | 23:59 |
| supercom32 | Dr_Willis: Especially on TV's which don't expect it. | 23:59 |
