[00:10] <jarsee> Nabby, Okay thanks for the help. I could spring on a new video card, but this one isn't all too old..
[00:11] <Nabby> jarsee, maybe try to boot the live environment. What helped for me also was booting from USB, but that was a different problem most likely
[00:11] <subcool> i am running fsck on my sdcard, and it appears to be corrupt- but the suggested command doesnt work either

[00:26] <mister2> hey, i have a satellite thing that connects into the wall and then a wireless d-link router plugged into that via a lan cable. When i directly plug in a computer to the 'surf beam' thing i get no internet, is that because there's no DHCP server when i take the router out of the loop?
[00:27] <joshua__> hey
[00:28] <acerimmer> subcool: This is a really old thread by now, but I just wanted to note that I came across it having the same problem and discovered that my issue was that the labels on my partitions had changed. I just dropped to root shell prompt and fixed the labels in /etc/fstab to match the partitions displayed by fdisk, and everything was fine.  SEE: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=35412
[00:28] <hillshum> Windows 7 (32-bit) on this machine sees 4GB of RAM, as does the BIOS. Ubuntu (32-bit) sees 2.7GB. Do I need to be using 64-bit Ubuntu?

[00:28] <joshua__> yep
[00:28] <joshua__> definitely
[00:29] <OerHeks> hillshum, you could try 64 bit, or install the PAE kernel wich can use/see more than 4 gb
[00:29] <acerimmer> kahh: you haven't installed ubuntu yet.
[00:30] <hillshum> OerHeks: I'll try 64bit, but 32 should see a full 4GB right?
[00:30] <kahh> ... im running it
[00:30] <joshua__> no
[00:30] <OerHeks> hillshum, 4 gb memory, including video memory, pci memory etc etc
[00:30] <joshua__> only 64 bit recognises 4gb ram
[00:30] <joshua__> 3 +
[00:30] <hillshum> Ahh.
[00:31] <joshua__> so if you have 3gb or more you need 64

[00:46] <Gnea> Everytime I go to run NetworkManager or wicd, the system hardlocks... there's an error before it hardlocks about that file... it used to be zero-length... then I removed it and now it's filled up to 33 bytes... now the system won't even boot!  I can get it into a shell prompt to try to fix the problem... but I can't seem to find a fix on google or ubuntuforums... what am I missing here?
[00:46] <celthunder> ickefes: lspci show it?
[00:46] <ickefes> i get "aplay: device_list:240: no soundcards found..." when i type aplay -l
[00:46] <codepal> I have a partition table like | PART 1 EXT4 | PART 2 EXT4 Ubuntu 12 |  Ext3 Ubuntu 10.04 | Swap |
[00:46] <ickefes> looking through lspci now...
[00:47] <codepal> What I want to do is move part2 into Part1 and then resize so PART 1 & 2 are merged....
[00:47] <codepal> possibe?
[00:47] <ickefes> nope. the only via it finds is the pata ide controller

[00:53] <ModFather> celthunder : does free -m shows only the cache/buffer and not the real memoery in used
[00:54] <ickefes> celthunder: when i used puppy studio it found it right away
[00:54] <celthunder> ModFather: it shows with and without cache and buffer

[00:56] <ubuntunoob> or is it about the same?

[00:57] <acerimmer> ubuntunoob: unless yo u have more than 4 gigs of ram, no real difference or benefit
[00:58] <ubuntunoob> so it's better to use 32 bit then?
[00:58] <acerimmer> ubuntunoob: yes
[00:58] <ubuntunoob> i only have 3 gigas
[00:58] <ubuntunoob> gigs*

[01:09] <Girffe> Hey, I'm new to ubuntu and I'm learning how to use the terminal
[01:09] <Girffe> if you want to execute a file
[01:10] <Girffe> but it has a long file name
[01:10] <Girffe> like, when you want to run an installation file
[01:10] <codepal> tab usually complets the filename....
[01:10] <Girffe> is there a way to select the first file in a directory or something like that?
[01:10] <itguru> I'm getting an unable to write to temporary file error 13 on a linux box, and I googled around, and it suppose to be permssions issue, but other mysql databases on the same instance are running fine - this seems like a red herring error, any ideas?
[01:10] <itguru> http://pastebin.com/ZjgBFxwX - Usually, when I've faced this error in the past it's been permissions, but other databases are running okay, and it's got me confused. This is being thown up by a php based website
[01:10] <Girffe> ahhh
[01:10] <codepal> Girffe, so just start typing then tab
[01:10] <Girffe> thank you very much codepal
[01:11] <codepal> I'm embarrased, the extended parition had to be resized first then I moved the logical partition inside of it to the beginning... whew, thank goodness gparted handled all that.
[01:14] <Someguy> is there a way to access the file system above the home folder from the terminal?
[01:14] <Someguy> so, for example, you could navigate to /usr/ in the terminal?
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Someguy: cd /usr/
[01:15] <Someguy> how does that work, then?
[01:15] <Someguy> are you not allowed to make other folders called usr?
[01:15] <Someguy> cd
[01:15] <codepal> cd = change directory - if exists
[01:16] <codepal> - / = root filesystem
[01:16] <Jordan_U> Someguy: The '/' at the beginning of the path means that the path is relative to the filesystem root.
[01:16] <Someguy> but if you have a folder in your current directory called usr, how would the terminal know whether to navigate to that folder or to the fil-
[01:16] <Someguy> ah, thanks
[01:16] <samsamsupersam> If I resize (grow) the extended partition that holds the partition of my ubuntu install using fdisk, will that erase the ubuntu partition or just relocate it so that if I run boot-repair everything will be as it was?
[01:17] <lkjoel> samsamsupersam: I don't think it should erase it, but I
[01:17] <codepal> fdisk?
[01:17] <lkjoel>  *'ve never tried before
[01:17] <codepal> I'm using gparted
[01:18] <Jordan_U> samsamsupersam: Technically if you only resize it "to the right" you should be fine, but I highly recommend against using fdisk. Use a tool that understands filesystems and will keep you safe like GParted.
[01:18] <acerimmer> samsamsupersam: resize will resize the partition - not erase.

[01:56] <Bsims> in short nvidia is a binary blog what Just Works... ATI is open source, and tends to suck, though the older stuff is pure gold
[01:56] <PDG1> seriously confused about why i cant get my wireless card working that was working no problems before
[01:56] <dr_willis> I have way too many issues with ati new or old...
[01:56] <Nach0z> Quietus: you seen the ubuntu router help page by any chance?
[01:56] <dr_willis> but ive gotten rid of most all my ati stuff now a days.
[01:56] <Bsims> buzzsaw_: wierd try the live cd and dump the net config to a printer
[01:57] <buzzsaw_> the net config?
[01:57] <Bsims> yeah
[01:57] <Quietus> I've looked everywhere nachoz, seems 11.10 did mean things to the hotspot.
[01:58] <buzzsaw_> what do you mean by the net config?
[01:58] <Nach0z> Quietus: that's unfortunate bud. I'd help if I could but I'm not familiar with routing in Ubuntu. you might try asking some of the good people in the OpenWRT channel, it's linux-based so they should have some idea of how to get it done
[01:58] <Bsims> try this: ifconfig >lp
[01:58] <Bsims> assuming you have a printer set up
[01:59] <dr_willis> errr ifconfig | lp   you mean?
[01:59] <buzzsaw_> what does the network config have to do with the keyboard?
[02:00] <Quietus> This is a fresh out of the box ubuntu install.  Setting up the hotspot is the first thing I've tried, so not a great first impression.
[02:00] <Bsims> Oh not network and yes dr_willis you is right, make it /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:00] <Bsims> sorry longish day
[02:01] <buzzsaw_> I know how that goes :-)
[02:01] <Bsims> though its wierd it worked on live and not installed
[02:01] <Chotaz> So I'm better of with Nvidia, i guess
[02:02] <Bsims> <-- has a 18 month daughter and is primary caretaker for my dad with alhimers
[02:02] <Quietus> Well enough of this, time to go download FreeBSD.
[02:02] <kah> how do you login using /msg nickserv?
[02:03] <Chotaz> kah just do /ns identify password
[02:03] <dr_willis> Chotaz:  i find it safer to stick with midrange video cards :)  hard to justify these high end beasts that exist these days
[02:03] <subcool> i am running fsck on my sdcard, and it appears to be corrupt- but the suggested command doesnt work either
[02:04] <lalaland1125> This is going to sound stupid, but I need to connect to two networks at the same time.
[02:04] <Chotaz> dr_willis: unless you income depends on your GPU power :D
[02:04] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: that's a common need
[02:04] <dr_willis> Chotaz:  makes me wonder what sort of weirdness you are doing.
[02:04] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: you use two net cards
[02:04] <lalaland1125> Like have two ip addresses, one that is given me to by dhcp, and I also need to have a static one as well to connect to a webcam.
[02:04] <Chotaz> dr_willis: google bitcoin mining
[02:04] <buzzsaw_> is there some kind of keybaord configuration that I could check I wonder.
[02:05] <dr_willis> Chotaz:  i will pass on that - to much like a ponzi scheme to me.
[02:05] <buzzsaw_> hah most of my experience with linux is server ;-)   nothing connected to it :-)
[02:05] <lalaland1125> Don't have two network cards. I guess I can keep on manually switching then.
[02:05] <damselfly9> lalaland1125:one of the net cards will end up being eth0, and the other eth1
[02:06] <lalaland1125> I can't just plug both networks into a switch and create some sort of virtual network card?
[02:06] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: it's an ethernet webcam?
[02:06] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: only if you want to share your video with the whole world
[02:07] <dsnyders> If I have eth0 set to 192.168.7.42 with netmask 255.255.255.0, and its link light is on, why does it say destination host is unreachable?
[02:07] <buzzsaw_> hummm, brb
[02:07] <dr_willis> lalaland1125:  you might want to do a write up or drawing of you rnetwork layout and devices to make things clearer.
[02:07] <Chotaz> Anyone has a 6970 with ubuntu?
[02:07] <lalaland1125> I don't care about sharing the video with the whole world. I only care about not having to manually switch back and forth with ifconfig and dhclient.
[02:08] <lalaland1125> dr_willis, I will do that now.
[02:08] <dr_willis> lalaland1125:  one normally gets a router to  make things liek this easier.
[02:08] <dr_willis> with a pc with 2 network cards. you are sort of turning it into the same setup as a router would be using. one wan address one lan address
[02:08] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: too bad the webcam doesn't have a usb port on it too
[02:09] <stephenh> just make a secod interface gahhh
[02:10] <Fretta> is the service utility not available on hardy?
[02:10] <buzzsaw_> okay so I rebooted and it worked :-)
[02:10] <Fretta> e.g. sudo service apache2 restart
[02:10] <danes> hello, I am receiving a Disk utility message that hard disk problems are detected... I am well aware of this situation. How can I stop getting those messages?
[02:11] <DonJuan> Is there anyone that could lend a hand with trouble shooting MTP with my Galaxy Nexus?
[02:11] <DonJuan> The connection in Ubuntu that is.
[02:11] <Bsims> danes: install smarttools and run a drive test
[02:11] <Mike9863> I tunnel all my Internet traffic through an SSH proxy which allows me to have faster speeds at my University, however for some reason the speeds I am getting are lower than what I should be getting. When I try connecting over the proxy on my friend's computer it works correctly, however no matter what I do I cannot get it to work correctly on mine. Could this be an issue with drivers or something?
[02:12] <Bsims> why don't you want to hear the deathscreams of a failing device
[02:12] <danes> Bsims, I don't need to remind me every 5 minutes and display it like 50 times...
[02:13] <damselfly9> danes, if the messages are that frequent, you might not be seeing them much longer
[02:14] <Bsims> ignore any messages marked critcical... it will fade in time
[02:14] <acerimmer> lol
[02:14] <lalaland1125> Oops, unplugged my switch while unplugging camera.
[02:14] <WXZ> Bsims: I mounted the disk image, but the directory I deleted from says "0 recoverable files", so I'm scanning the Recovered files Virtual folder
[02:14] <stephenh> Mike9863: ssh tunnels will slow you down due to the overhead btw
[02:14] <lalaland1125> Anyways, my network looks like http://postimage.org/image/j8a3tj6k7/
[02:14] <lalaland1125> I can easily connect to the router by doing dhclient eth0
[02:15] <stephenh> you're probably better off using an https proxy than an ssh tunnel
[02:15] <lalaland1125> And easily connect to the camera with ifconfig eth0 10.24.29.8
[02:15] <lalaland1125> Now how do I connect to both at once.
[02:15] <damselfly9> lalaland1125, the webcam is ethernet-only?
[02:15] <lalaland1125> Yes
[02:15] <akem> lalaland1125, is it a security IP camera?
[02:15] <lalaland1125> It is an axis cam, but it is not being used for security purposes.
[02:15] <danes> damselfly9, what do you mean? I don't get it :s
[02:16] <Bsims> that sounds reasonable WXZ
[02:16] <akem> ha ok
[02:16] <Bsims> heh may be just gone WXZ
[02:16] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Why am I getting a destination host unreachable?  eth0 is 192.168.7.42 and target is 192.168.7.1
[02:16] <damselfly9> lalaland1125: is this a laptop maybe?
[02:16] <WXZ> Bsims: I will kill myself, come back to life, then rekill myself.
[02:17] <lalaland1125> No, I am a desktop.
[02:17] <Bsims> ya got a backup right?
[02:17] <lalaland1125> This is not that serious of a problem, I can just manually switch, but if there is an easy solution, it is always nice to save time.
[02:18] <Mike9863> stephenh: The connection to the server is unthrottled because it belongs to the university. I used to get 50/120 when I ssh'd but for a while now (it might be because I reinstalled Ubuntu) I've only been getting 20/60 or so.
[02:18] <damselfly9> lalaland1125, could you afford a usb ethernet adapter? some of them are cheap
[02:19] <dsnyders> Why can't lalaland1125 multi-home the interface?
[02:20] <damselfly9> danes, what I meant was that if you're getting that many harddrive warnings, the harddrive might be non-functional soon, so you won't be seeing any more messages
[02:21] <dsnyders> lalaland1125, have you tried going into your network settings, clicking on the ipv4 tab and adding multiple addresses?
[02:22] <acerimmer> kind of like ignoring the "service engine immediately" warning light on your car....
[02:22] <lalaland1125> Yeah, I am looking that up right now.
[02:22] <lalaland1125> It seems to be exactly what I was looking for, reading the manual.
[02:22] <D4rth_B4n3> is there a way to run the network autoconfig that is running when u instal the server ??? (ubuntu server 10.04 LTS 32 bit)
[02:23] <dsnyders> lalaland1125, It's amazing what they put in manuals these days.
[02:25] <lalaland1125> I am still connected here, right?
[02:25] <damselfly9> yes
[02:25] <lalaland1125> works like a charm
[02:25] <lalaland1125> sudo ip addr add 10.24.29.7/24 dev eth0
[02:26] <Bsims> lalaland1125: wrong window?
[02:26] <damselfly9> your isp will be seeing two hosts connected to your modem
[02:28] <lalaland1125> These types of settings reset on reboot, correct?
[02:28] <dsnyders> lalaland1125, what is the ip command?  is that new?
[02:29] <LosFrijoles> hey im having a problem: i just ran warcraft III in fullscreen (wine 1.3) and now Ubuntu has stretched the screen so that 5-10 pixels are outside the edge of the monitor. i have logged out/in and also restarted to no avail. any suggestions?
[02:30] <lalaland1125> I think it is sort of new. Its supposedly part of the new iproute2 utilities.
[02:31] <benqjcevil2010> hi everybody
[02:31] <dsnyders> iproute2?
[02:31] <agu10^> How do i run a program if unity is not working?
[02:31] <dsnyders> Maybe that's why my ping isn't working.
[02:31] <aeon-ltd> agu10^: don't use unity? ...
[02:32] <dsnyders> ubottu
[02:32] <aeon-ltd> agu10^: log out, change session (any will do) log back in
[02:32] <agu10^> How do i run a terminal if unity plugin does not work?
[02:32] <agu10^> Only the bar is missing
[02:32] <damselfly9> lalaland1125, can you either configure your cable router to use 10.x.x.x addresses or configure your webcam to use 192.168.x.x addresses?
[02:33] <agu10^> Everyrhing else works
[02:33] <acerimmer> agu10^: Alt F2
[02:33] <agu10^> No
[02:33] <agu10^> A graphic term
[02:33] <benqjcevil2010> hey i have a problem. im install wine but i dont know use that
[02:33] <acerimmer> !wine|benqjcevil2010
[02:33] <dsnyders> !ip
[02:34] <agu10^> A graphic terminal so i can run a graphic program
[02:34] <aeon-ltd> agu10^: alt-f2 makes a launcher appear
[02:34] <dsnyders> !iproute2
[02:34] <aeon-ltd> agu10^: you are thinking of 'ctrl-alt-fx'
[02:34] <agu10^> It dowsnt work
[02:35] <agu10^> Everything works except the launcher bar
[02:36] <agu10^> Alt f2 doesnt fo anything
[02:36] <danes> hello, is there an antivirus for ubuntu? I think my hard drive has a virus and I want to scan all my files and delete whatever is infected...
[02:36] <danes> I know virus are just for windows
[02:36] <aeon-ltd> danes: to scan for windows viruses?
[02:36] <acerimmer> danes: clamav or klamav
[02:37] <danes> what about the virus definitions? how good is it?
[02:37] <aeon-ltd> danes: not true, there are viruses for every OS
[02:37] <danes> well, true but not as many as for windows
[02:38] <quixotedon> so what antivirus app do you think is the best for ubuntu?
[02:38] <damselfly9> danes, are you sure all the hard drive warning messages aren't caused by hardware failure?
[02:38] <dsnyders> So... route add and  ifconfig are out the window?
[02:38] <acerimmer> quixotedon:  6 years ubuntu.  never used a virus checker.    never had a virus...
[02:39] <benqjcevil2010> i want a good antivirus for my ubuntu
[02:39] <danes> damselfly9, yes, I know I have a defective internal hdd since I run the tool to check integrity and what is infected with virus is an external hdd
[02:39] <quixotedon> acerimmer: i agree with you, i'm always confident with the file transfer using usb flash disk/external hard disk on ubuntu
[02:39] <agu10^> some virus run on wine
[02:40] <Chotaz> agu10^: thats why i dont run wine
[02:40] <quixotedon> agu10^: omg!!
[02:40] <sala> hi all, how can i know previous state of shutdown for ubuntu server? either clean, force, etc?
[02:40] <danes> quixotedon, I am not sure about your question that is why I ask...
[02:41] <benqjcevil2010> i want a good antivirus for my ubuntu
[02:41] <agu10^> Chotz: virus are not that bad
[02:41] <flowerpot> benqjcevil2010, best antivirus is common sense.
[02:41] <benqjcevil2010> what
[02:41] <danes> quixotedon, I think I did not ask the right question. I just want to know if the antivirus definitions are being updated so that it will catch recent viruses...
[02:42] <dsnyders> Hi all!  Why am I getting destination host unreachable?
[02:42] <damselfly9> danes. clamav gets updated nearly every day. but it's detection rate isn't perfect
[02:42] <Mike9863> Whenever I try to move a file to a usb stick, it never finishes. Can anyone help?
[02:42] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: NO detection rates are perfect
[02:42] <danes> damselfly9, thanks
[02:43] <quixotedon> Mike9863: have you tried it somewhere else?
[02:43] <jfeole> dsnyders - your machine can't connect with the remote host..
[02:43] <pedro> whats the diff between "muse " and "ardour2" ?
[02:44] <jfeole> try using the remote machine IP Address if you have it..
[02:44] <benqjcevil2010> ubuntu not use antivirus?
[02:45] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: most virus writers go after the easy target - windows.
[02:45] <hydrox24> acerimmer: and if they bother to go for linux then it'll be designed for servers
[02:45] <Mike9863> quixotedon: I've tried it with multiple USB keys and I keep getting the same result
[02:45] <dsnyders> jfeole, remote host is a linksys router, ip 192.168.7.1 and my eth0 is 192.168.7.42.  link lights are on.
[02:46] <benqjcevil2010> i like that
[02:46] <benqjcevil2010> whre you from acerimer
[02:49] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: usa usa usa!
[02:50] <benqjcevil2010> ok im from vnzla bro
[02:50] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: so I see.
[02:50] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: try the *buntu, use the *buntu, trust the *buntu
[02:51] <benqjcevil2010> are you expert or developper of ubuntu?
[02:51] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: no and no.  just a user.
[02:52] <benqjcevil2010> acerimmer ok. your age?
[02:52] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: ubuntu support does not require age identification
[02:52] <WXZ> can anyone tell me what happens when you delete a file in ubuntu with ctrl + del?
[02:53] <benqjcevil2010> lol
[02:53] <benqjcevil2010> ok
[02:54] <benqjcevil2010> nice to me you acerimmer
[02:54] <Psi-Jack> Okay, WHY exactly does Ubuntu 11.10 SOMETIMES (not consistently), halt at grub without a default timer? What's causing that nonsense?
[02:54] <acerimmer> benqjcevil2010: likewise.  happy computing to you.
[02:55] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, have you made in changes in etc/default/gru
[02:55] <urlin2u> b
[02:55] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: Never.
[02:56] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, have you run a update-grub to see if this changes this?
[02:56] <Psi-Jack> It's only happening specifically in Ubuntu 11.10, and since I'm running this as a server on 4 virtual machines, that's causing issues.
[02:56] <wilson_> does anyone here know how to use  SKYPE4py???
[02:56] <benqjcevil2010> http://www.facebook.com/pages/electrowebjc/286344538052765
[02:56] <benqjcevil2010> please visit my web
[02:57] <Psi-Jack> benqjcevil2010: Freenode foes not permit spam/advertising, sorry.
[02:57] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, I'm not familiar with servers really
[02:57] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: It's Ubuntu, so it should be the same as a desktop, in respects.
[02:57] <agu10^_> How do i disable compiz?
[02:57] <Psi-Jack> As to why grub suddenly decides not to have a countdown.
[02:57] <benqjcevil2010> ok
[02:58] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, you could pstebin your etc I asked about and I could compare it with mine.
[02:58] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: You running 11.10?
[02:58] <urlin2u> pas_yeah
[02:58] <urlin2u> agu10^_, which desktop are you running?
[02:59] <agu10^_> Unity
[02:59] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, yeah
[02:59] <urlin2u> agu10^_, unity is a plugun in compiz.
[02:59] <urlin2u> plugin
[03:00] <agu10^> Unity is not working!
[03:00] <agu10^> How do i make it work again?
[03:00] <stuntmachine> What is the difference between manual and static in /etc/network/interfaces?  For example, I could say, "iface eth0 inet manual" or I could say, "iface eth0 inet static" and both will work...
[03:00] <Psi-Jack> agu10^: You're the only person I've ever heard wanting it to work. :p
[03:00] <agu10^> Lol
[03:01] <agu10^> What do you use?
[03:01] <Psi-Jack> stuntmachine: manual takes no options. It's used for bonding and/or bridge devices.
[03:01] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, here's mine if needed.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/822137/
[03:02] <WHAT_UP> I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I'm at my office now with 1 of each mac and linux laptops connected to the same wifi network. How would I get the mac to access, say, apache on the linux machine?
[03:02] <stuntmachine> Psi-Jack:  Any idea where I can find more information about this?  Like a manpage or something?
[03:02] <Psi-Jack> stuntmachine: man interfaces, ironically.
[03:02] <agu10^> I enabled 3d cube and now unity does not work
[03:02] <agu10^> Wtf?
[03:02] <benqjcevil2010> good night people of freenode
[03:03] <WHAT_UP> I was hoping that just http://hostname or http://192.168.2.132 (the local ip according to ifconfig) would work, but neither of them do. Interestingly, ifconfig on both seems to return a different type of address (the mac gives 128.112.*.*).
[03:03] <stuntmachine> Psi-Jack:  ah nice… thank you
[03:03] <urlin2u> agu10^, yeah you need to find a web page on doing this, you can reset it with unity --reset in the terminal
[03:03] <stuntmachine> Psi-Jack:  It's one of those things I've done for years but never understood why…  I'm simply not satisfied with doing something and not knowing why :)
[03:03] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: The only main difference I see in yours and mine is the default timeout is 10 on yours, 2 on mine, and you have quiet and splash on your DEFAULT CMDLINE
[03:04] <agu10^> What do you use if not unity?
[03:04] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, I have seen most often that people change thatdefault timeout and have problems usually it is to 0 and can't get the grub.
[03:05] <danes> is there any usb hub to network supported for ubuntu? I would like to connect my usb scanner and hdd to the network and be able to use them within my network
[03:05] <agu10^> What do u use instead of unity?
[03:05] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: When it starts up and I see a grub menu, there is no timeout, this happends only sometimes, but when it does, it's annoying, cause I don't see it until I bring up the VNC console to the guest VM.
[03:05] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: I usually notice it when the CPU is pegged for a while on the charts, because while on grub, it's using a lot of CPU doing nothing. ;)
[03:06] <Psi-Jack> Which is .. Wierd, but normal.
[03:06] <urlin2u> agu10^, I use unity with the cube but I used a web page to set it up correctly. it does loose the window headers at times, but I have a restart for compiz on the desktop to fix this.
[03:07] <danes> anyone knows if the Belkin F5L009 5-Port Network USB Hub works with ubuntu?
[03:07] <agu10^> How do i clear all i did in compiz? Unity is not working. Gnome with effects neither
[03:08] <urlin2u> agu10^, look here for web pages after resetting unity. https://www.google.com/search?sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&site=webhp&source=hp&q=oneiric+compiz+cube&btnG=Search&gbv=1&sei=YgkmT4vAAYqliQLX36SGCA
[03:08] <agu10^> I cant reset it
[03:08] <agu10^> First i need to get it working
[03:08] <agu10^> Im on my phone.
[03:08] <urlin2u> agu10^, log out then back in or reboot to get some back at least the terminal and run compiz --reset then
[03:09] <agu10^> Ok
[03:09] <dimas_> i have an application that keep crashing all the time so i open it in the terminal and is giving me a error that says "not freed memory blocks" so is anybody who could direct me to a solution?
[03:09] <agu10^> Unknown option --reser
[03:09] <urlin2u> agu10^, unity --reset
[03:09] <Psi-Jack> agu10^: You mean --reset, correct?
[03:11] <urlin2u> agu10^, I think thats it compiz --replace restarts compiz unity --reset I believe makes it stock
[03:11] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: But thanks for the paste. I added "quiet" to my DEFAULT_CMDLINE stuff, and now my firewalls and director vm's boot up faster. ;)
[03:11] <urlin2u> agu10^, sorry unity --reset I believe sets it stock
[03:11] <urlin2u> Psi-Jack, cool
[03:13] <agu10^> How do i reset compiz config?
[03:13] <urlin2u> agu10^, it is unity --replace  sorry you have a terminal?
[03:13] <agu10^> It doesmt do anything
[03:14] <Psi-Jack> agu10^: Quick and easy solution, from a terminal, you could mv ~/.local to ~/.local-old  -- This will totally reset your entire desktop environment back to rebuild it from scratch as if it were freshly installed.
[03:14] <urlin2u> agu10^, http://askubuntu.com/questions/70572/reset-unity-and-gnome-to-default-values
[03:14] <Psi-Jack> And you can put stuff back from ~/.local-old back into the new ~/.local, as you see fit.
[03:15] <agu10^> I cant open a terminal without unity
[03:15] <Psi-Jack> CTRL+ALT+F1
[03:16] <agu10^> Thats a tty
[03:16] <Psi-Jack> Thats perfectly fine.
[03:16] <agu10^> Yhis vommand wont work on a tty
[03:16] <agu10^> It says it cant find a screen
[03:16] <Psi-Jack> The methods /I/ suggested, doesn't require X at all.
[03:16] <buzzsaw> okay everything is up and going but now wifi does not seem to want to work.
[03:16] <mannytu> How do u go back ftom tty mode
[03:17] <Psi-Jack> you have 6 tty console.
[03:17] <buzzsaw> I have a bcm4311 first I installed the driver it recomended and rebooted
[03:17] <Psi-Jack> The 7th and up are X
[03:17] <buzzsaw> that did not work so I googled ubuntu bcm4311 and tried a few different tutorials with non successful
[03:18] <agu10^> That didnt work. Unity still not working
[03:18] <Psi-Jack> What didn't work?
[03:19] <agu10^> Unity
[03:19] <Psi-Jack> ...
[03:19] <agu10^> I only see thw wallpaper and cursor
[03:19] <Psi-Jack> Nevermind. I'm done trying.
[03:19] <buzzsaw> then I modified my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and it still does not show up
[03:20] <urlin2u> agu10^, sorry for the confusion, I just spent 11 hours writing a paper for school, if you get it reset google you release and compiz cube there are lots of sites, as well there is a #compiz channel, it is a bit tricky compiz does not refresh well in unity.
[03:20] <agu10^> Ok
[03:21] <urlin2u> agu10^, you will need a compiz restart button to do all of this the fusion-icon is what I use you can make a launcher ask for a link if needed.
[03:21] <agu10^> How can i reset config to make unity work?
[03:21] <agu10^> Still not working
[03:21] <urlin2u> agu10^, did ou run the unity --reset
[03:21] <agu10^> Only wallpaper and mouse cursor
[03:21] <urlin2u> you
[03:22] <agu10^> Yes
[03:22] <urlin2u> agu10^, logout again or reboot
[03:22] <agu10^> I did
[03:22] <agu10^> Many times
[03:22] <D4rth_B4n3> i have two screens now works good but my sound always comes out of the laptop speakers even if have headphones (stereo AUX) pluged in does somebody know how to fix that ?
[03:22] <guid0f0x> agu10^, is compiz a factor?
[03:22] <agu10^> Probably
[03:22] <Psi-Jack> urlin2u: My question is, what actuallY DOES work "well" with Unity? hehe
[03:23] <Psi-Jack> heh
[03:23] <preludelinux> nothing ~ heh
[03:23] <agu10^> If i use gnome no effects, everyrhing works fine
[03:23] <Psi-Jack> preludelinux: Exactly.
[03:23] <acerimmer> D4rth_B4n3: Systems>Preferences>Sound & check all the settings.
[03:23] <guid0f0x> agu10^, compiz and untiy don't play well together...sooo easy to hose..
[03:23] <Psi-Jack> I personally can't understand why it is Canonical insists on continuing Unity when 90% of people hate it.
[03:24] <preludelinux> i really dont see why unity is default with all the bug
[03:24] <urlin2u> agu10^, try compiz --reset
[03:24] <agu10^> Unity needs compiz
[03:24] <shaneo> hey guys got a little problem here every time i go to look for an app in dash home it crashes my desktop
[03:24] <urlin2u> preludelinux, compiz is basically fine with unity you jsut have to know how to tweak it.
[03:25] <guid0f0x> agu10^, yes, but shuts down once you deviate from default...
[03:25] <urlin2u> shaneo, 11.10?
[03:25] <shaneo> yes
[03:25] <preludelinux> im still using gnome2 on 10.04 .... i dreed the thought of upgrading
[03:25] <agu10^> Ok how do i get compiz default config?????????
[03:25] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, not if you do it correctly there are a ton of websites telling you how.
[03:25] <guid0f0x> urlin2u, your smarter then me, then...had to resort to gnome-shell
[03:26] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, gnome shell is mutter not compiz
[03:26] <preludelinux> the problem i have is i support allot of ubuntu installs ~ and unless someone has fast hardware unity just dont work for what my users want
[03:26] <urlin2u> agu10^, you can login to another s=desktop you have gnome 3?
[03:26] <agu10^> I have gnome no effects
[03:26] <agu10^> It works
[03:27] <shaneo> urlin2u: everything was working last week now nothing
[03:27] <agu10^> How do i reset compiz configs?
[03:27] <urlin2u> agu10^, log into gnome and set compiz back.
[03:27] <agu10^> How
[03:27] <guid0f0x> urlin2u, i know , that was the point...please send me these links...cause i got tired of unity, and reinstalling..
[03:27] <Ben64> preludelinux: i have fast hardware and still dread April
[03:28] <preludelinux> well i do too but not all my customers ... might just push most back to using windows
[03:28] <kkb110> Q: Does buntu do major package version upgrades for LTS?
[03:28] <acerimmer> preludelinux: ben64: kubuntu/xubuntu/lubuntu...
[03:28] <shaneo> argu10^: open compiz settings go to preferences and select reset to defaults
[03:28] <agu10^> How do i set compiz back?
[03:28] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, just google your release and hat you want like 10.04 compiz cube if that"s what your running.
[03:28] <urlin2u> what*
[03:28] <acerimmer> kkb110: "major" package revisions?  no.
[03:28] <Ben64> acerimmer: but i like the widgets on gnome-panel : /
[03:28] <preludelinux> they will for 10.04 >12.04 im pretty sure gnome2 will not be an option
[03:29] <kkb110> acerimmer, seems like it's more conservative than rhel, which does it for first 4 years
[03:29] <agu10^> Why do we still have to deal with so many bugs?
[03:29] <agu10^> Ubuntu is unusable
[03:29] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, I rarely tell people to google it but with compiz it is good to look at various websites
[03:29] <acerimmer> kkb110: there was  a discussion that the 12.04 LTS was for 5 years...
[03:30] <preludelinux> i had a test machine to test what i need 1.6ghz amd laptop 2GB ram  ati X1200
[03:30] <guid0f0x> urlin2u, naw, don't need compiz cube...the only reason that was cool for me was that it was easy to organize multiple workspaces...and gnome-shell has that covered, and so i don't miss wobbly windows at all...
[03:30] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, cool. :
[03:30] <preludelinux> kde4 and unity - unity takes like 5 mins to even load on the box .... kde just seems slugish ..
[03:31] <kkb110> acerimmer, I mean, according to rhel web page, they do major package upgrades for first 4 years of release, officially
[03:31] <guid0f0x> urlin2u, i'm not agin unity, but too stupid to make it work, so ......
[03:31] <kkb110> which is kind of surprising to me
[03:31] <acerimmer> kkb110: ah, now I understand.  LTS packages do get upgrades, but there're aren't MAJOR changes within a single LTS active life.  LTS to LTS however...
[03:32] <urlin2u> guid0f0x, gnome 3 is usable, I just have a compiz set up I have saved to l;oad when needed, and have a compiz restart on the dektop.
[03:32] <kkb110> acerimmer, I prefer that, nice
[03:32] <acerimmer> kkb110: I install LTS only - lot less headaches.
[03:32] <Psi-Jack> kkb110: Yeah, they basically do bug fixes on LTS and security updates.
[03:33] <acerimmer> 5 year support for 12.04 LTS confirmed @ http://www.ubuntu.com/business/desktop/overview
[03:33] <Psi-Jack> I usually only stick to LTS personally, but 12.04 is around the corner, so I wanted to install 11.10 for my front-end facing firewalls and directors.. I worry if they have the same problems with grub in 12.04 heh
[03:33] <guid0f0x> urlin2u,  i believe you, just couldn't figure it out personally...
[03:33] <trager> hello. i'm new to linux and ubuntu. lookin for some software help
[03:34] <acerimmer> Psi-Jack: grub >>> grub2 was heartbreaking.  DID force me to drop wubi and do a proper install however...
[03:34] <acerimmer> !ask|trager
[03:35] <agu10^> Nothing works
[03:35] <agu10^> Unity nwver starts
[03:35] <Psi-Jack> acerimmer: WUBI sucks. Good thing. grub2 is actually nice, but it's whatever Ubuntu 11.10's doing with it that's buggering it up BADly. Somehow for some reason, for wahtever causes it, grub sometimes stats up without a default timer. I usually only see it when I force shut-down a kvm guest.
[03:35] <agu10^> Compiz doesnt get to defaults
[03:35] <Psi-Jack> or a root hypervisor server gets stonith'd/
[03:35] <Ben64> agu10^: you gonna ask a question or just complain?
[03:35] <Ben64> guess that answers that
[03:35] <preludelinux> so with that laptops specs only something like enlightenment worked very well ... i did leave it with gnome-shell which ironically worked ...
[03:35] <Psi-Jack> Ben64: He's been complaining for the past hour.
[03:36] <Ben64> Psi-Jack: oh, didn't notice. i pop in and out of here often
[03:36] <acerimmer> Psi-Jack: as I boot Ubuntu Studio, I'll be moving from gnome to xfce - may not upgrade to 12.04 immediately.
[03:36] <Matt393727> How do I see my /home drive from windows? I have installed the ext2/3 driver but the drive is not  appearing?
[03:36] <trager> sorry, thank you. i'm totally new, my bad. anyway, my vlc player has stopped working. i can't even open it up. the error message isn't onscreen long enough for me to read it. it behaves as though "root" has taken control and won't grant me access. and i'm no good with the command line. any advice?
[03:36] <Psi-Jack> acerimmer: I'll likely upgrade to 12.04 immediately because of th ecurrent issues in 11.10 which won't get fixed likely.
[03:36] <Ben64> i'll probably back up my system, then upgrade to 12.04
[03:37] <Ben64> i really enjoy 10.04 and i'm scared of the upgrade
[03:37] <Psi-Jack> Ben64: Heh, I run mostly servers, so upgrades are generally next to flawless.
[03:37] <bderrly> 10.04?
[03:37] <preludelinux> but for newbie linux installs .... too much change scares those people away ... hopefully there will be a gnome2 fully look alike for 12.04 ....
[03:37] <Ben64> bderrly: yeah, 10.04 is the current LTS
[03:37] <Psi-Jack> preludelinux: Bleh. Gnome 2 sucked.
[03:37] <bderrly> hmm
[03:37] <bderrly> yeah...but crusty :)
[03:37] <Ben64> but stable :D
[03:37] <preludelinux> it worked and  didnt drag a system down
[03:37] <bderrly> meh, desktops aren't meant to be stable
[03:37] <Ben64> ... yes they are
[03:38] <preludelinux> did what 90% of people needed
[03:38]  * guid0f0x finally admits to hating previous v's of fedora, and not being a rhel fan, but appreciates centos, and slowly liking fedora verne...
[03:38] <bderrly> tee hee
[03:38]  * guid0f0x meanwhile, continues to rep ubuntu
[03:38] <in^> anyone know why nvidia driver will max resolution 640x480 on my lcd flatscreen tv using vga?
[03:39] <acerimmer> trager: from terminal type vlc
[03:39] <Ben64> in^: the tv isn't providing accurate information and/or doesn't support higher resolutions
[03:39] <in^> so it has to be on the tv hardware side?
[03:39] <Matt393727> How do I see my /home drive from windows? I have installed the ext2/3 driver but the drive is not  appearing?
[03:40] <acerimmer> Matt393727: from a wubi installation of ubuntu?
[03:40] <agu10^> Ubuntu sucks
[03:40] <acerimmer> agu10^: go away
[03:40] <Ben64> in^: most likely yes. many tvs don't have good information and look funny when hooked up to vga
[03:40] <Psi-Jack> agu10^: Troll elsewhere.
[03:40] <zykotick9> Matt393727: if you installed a recent version, it's probably using ext4 (not sure if there is MS support for that or not)
[03:40] <guid0f0x> agu10^, ubuntu surely does NOT suck...
[03:40] <agu10^> Sue
[03:41] <Matt393727> acerimmer: brilliant! will try. I want to backup my /home before I reinstall
[03:41] <trager> ok. says blocked call to setlocale(6, gtk warning, using fallback 'c' locale, Segmentation fault
[03:41] <in^> my tv doesn't have dvi input will dvi to hdmi converter help?
[03:41] <agu10^> Yes
[03:41] <Ben64> in^: yeah it should work better with hdmi
[03:41] <acerimmer> Matt393727: whoa, son!  I was NOT suggesting a wubi installation!
[03:42] <Ben64> in^: although, you can check the manual for the TV and see which resolutions it does support, and you can set it manually
[03:42] <in^> how do I set it manually?
[03:42] <guid0f0x> acerimmer, isn't there a ext2/3 reader for windows..?
[03:42] <in^> in xorg.conf?
[03:42] <Ben64> in^: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions
[03:42] <in^> thanks I will check that out
[03:43] <guid0f0x> trager, hey..
[03:43] <trager> yeah
[03:43] <acerimmer> guid0f0x: don't know.  I believe the windows/ubuntu mutual peace pact requires fat32
[03:45] <anthony_dev> acerimmer they both support ntfs
[03:45] <Ben64> they both support ext3*
[03:45] <|Anthony|> how do i break a lan connection? i used "Connect to Server" to establish a file share with a local machine, but even after i unmount the location, i am still connected via netbios-ssn 139 and microsoft-ds 445
[03:45] <acerimmer> anth
[03:45] <Psi-Jack> Ben64: Not quite correct.
[03:45] <Ben64> *with the driver for windows
[03:45] <Psi-Jack> Ben64: ext2, yes, ext3 and up, no.
[03:46] <guid0f0x> acerimmer, ext2fs is no longer supported?
[03:46] <Ben64> i don't like using ntfs, if something goes wrong theres not much you can do
[03:47] <acerimmer> guid0f0x: 01/17/08  http://www.howtoforge.com/access-linux-partitions-from-windows
[03:48] <acerimmer> Ben64: completely agree.  I can access my win7 and OSX partitions, but I don't like doing so.  Suggest if someone needs cross platform access, look @ dropbox or similar service
[03:50] <anthony_dev> or buy a NAS :]
[03:50] <Ben64> acerimmer: luckily, I only have Linux on my computers now
[03:50] <trager> well, thanks anyway ya'll. i'll strike out on the net once more and see what i can find out
[03:51] <flowerpot> Ben64, what does that mean?  how could you have Linux on anything else?
[03:51] <Ben64> I have Linux on my phone, my DS, my mp3 player too
[03:51] <flowerpot> ah
[03:51] <acerimmer> Ben64: I've got all that choice and STILL boot ubuntu 90% of the time
[03:51] <agu10^_> help
[03:51] <agu10^_> wobbly windows aren't smooth

[03:57] <acerimmer> sere: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Offline/Repository
[03:57] <Psi-Jack> sere: I'm using apt-cacher-ng, which centralizes by proxy.
[03:58] <zykotick9> Psi-Jack: apt-cacher-ng is amazing, i feel bad for all the years i needlessly downloaded updates off official servers ;)
[03:59] <Psi-Jack> zykotick9: heh
[03:59] <Psi-Jack> zykotick9: I like it because I update, at home, ~14 servers routinely.
[03:59] <Psi-Jack> zykotick9: At work, however, I manage 600+

[04:22] <hydrox24_> pnorman: or whatever it currently does.
[04:23] <auk> Psi-Jack: IDK, I never ventured that far. Give it a try, and if it works towards your favor, the more you and other people would know.          Doesn't hurt to try, it looks nice and theres many themse for it.
[04:23] <Psi-Jack> auk: Well, my desktop is either Fedora or openSUSE, so.
[04:24] <jbubni> whats a good chan to get help with Ubuntu 11.10 firewall / connection issues?
[04:24] <em> auk: I think Kubuntu is looking pretty nice
[04:24] <auk> Psi-Jack: Yo  can still download and use cinnamon.
[04:24] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Umm.. #ubuntu perhaps?
[04:24] <auk> Psi-Jack: http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/?page_id=61
[04:24] <Psi-Jack> auk: Nice!
[04:24] <Psi-Jack> auk: F16 package. :D
[04:24] <jbubni> lil' help?
[04:24] <auk> em: Yes, pretty nice, but I hope your computer can handle that.
[04:25] <auk> jbubni: You're already here, what do you need to do with your firewall>?
[04:26] <jbubni> i installed Ubuntu 11.10 and cant connect to my damn small linux firewall like i could with ubuntu 10
[04:26] <_godhelpme> from a shell how do i see what user accounts are on my system
[04:27] <jbubni> firewall machine can connect to the internet. i can ping it from ubuntu 11 machine, can not telnet to it
[04:27] <qman__> I have a problem with CPU frequency scaling. My problem is that the ondemand profile's minimum speed setting is 800MHz, and this is not fast enough, applications are lagging before the CPU scales up. But if I set it to full speed all the time, my fan is too loud. My current workaround is to set it statically at 2.1GHz, but I'd like to be able to climb to maximum speed when needed. Is there any way to modify the ondemand profile to us
[04:27] <qman__> e the 2.1 as the base, instead of 800?
[04:28] <jordo2323> jbubni: Does the new installation have the same IP on your LAN as the original?
[04:28] <jbubni> yes, ifconfig eth0 10.0.3.2
[04:29] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: We'll refer to the firewall box as G (for gateway), and the client system trying to use it, C. So, G can connect to the internet just fine, ping 8.8.8.8, DNS resolve, etc? But C cannot even ping G's LAN IP?
[04:29] <jordo2323> jbubni: Do you remember if the adapter you were also using on the old system was eth0?
[04:29] <CJHI> hello all anyone able to help me out a bit ?
[04:29] <snimavat> I have a weired boot issue after installing ubuntu along side of windows - windows 7 does not boot. Can any one please help me, I have tried many options but none of them seem to work, please all the details here http://askubuntu.com/questions/99584/windows-7-wont-boot-after-installing-ubuntu-11
[04:29] <LukeNukem> Hello guys
[04:30] <LukeNukem> how do i set a default shell, i mean i installed gnome 3 shell and when i boot up it boots up into Unity and i have to logout and select GNOME on login
[04:30] <CJHI> just installed julinux 8 never used it before anyone able to give me some pointers to get me started?
[04:30] <LukeNukem> how do i make it so that GNOME is loaded during startup
[04:30] <Psi-Jack> LukeNukem: You mean, Desktop Environment./ Shell is completely different. (bash is a shell, zsh is a shell, etc)
[04:31] <CJHI> anyone mind helpin please?
[04:31] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Well?
[04:31] <LukeNukem> Psi-Jack, yea..so how do i set a default one
[04:31] <Psi-Jack> LukeNukem: Select it in the Display Manager, it becomes default for that user.
[04:32] <snimavat> Any one please http://askubuntu.com/questions/99584/windows-7-wont-boot-after-installing-ubuntu-11
[04:32] <Psi-Jack> Until changed to something else.
[04:32] <LukeNukem> Psi-Jack, you mean that gear icon in the login area...i did that
[04:33] <LukeNukem> but it just boots into Unity again
[04:33] <CJHI> anyone able to give me some basic starter tips for julinux?
[04:33] <urlin2u> CJHI, this is ubuntu the channel only supports ubuntu
[04:33] <auk> CJHI: julinux?
[04:33] <urlin2u> just use linux
[04:33] <CJHI> yeh
[04:33] <urlin2u> CJHI, not supported here sorry
[04:34] <CJHI> just installed is and not sure how to do some things. and im here cause THIS is in the help settings there so seems logical that someone here would be able to help me out\
[04:34] <urlin2u> snimavat, what is the actual problem.
[04:34] <jbubni> psi-jack that was the case until i tried ifconfig eth0 10.0.3.1 now neither can connect
[04:34] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: listen, not waiting on you forever, so if you want help, pay attention, please.
[04:35] <qman__> CJHI, julinux is not ubuntu, and is not a supported ubuntu derivative. Unfortunately it seems that distributor has not given you adequate help information, but we can't help you with that problem here.
[04:35] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Okay, what's the LAN IP's for G and C?
[04:35] <snimavat> urlin2u - windows does not boot, and now after trying bootrec /fixmbr niether windows not ubuntu boots. I want to fix windows, its okey if i loose ubuntu at this time.
[04:35] <jbubni> g = 10.0.3.1 c = 10.0.3.2 or at least thats how it worked before..

[04:36] <LukeNukem> what to do for this error?
[04:36] <FloodBot1> LukeNukem: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:36] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Okay. So you did this, ifconfig eth0 10.0.3.1 on G?
[04:36] <fishcooker> hello fellas
[04:36] <LukeNukem> http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[04:36] <urlin2u> snimavat, your best bet is #windows to get the boot for 7 working then remove ubutu.
[04:36] <LukeNukem> fishcooker, hi there
[04:37] <urlin2u> *ubuntu
[04:37] <fishcooker> is there any performance difference if apache directory located on different partition?
[04:37] <snimavat> urlin2u - how do i do that ?
[04:37] <CJHI> anyone able to then supply me with a suggestion as to obtaining info on what i seek ?
[04:37] <jbubni> ok
[04:37] <LukeNukem> snimavat, boot into windows dvd, install it...format all partitions and install it onto anyone. It should replace GRUB with windows boot loader and windows 7 will be working
[04:37] <urlin2u> snimavat, click on the link
[04:37] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Yes? No? What's the answer?
[04:37] <LukeNukem> snimavat, type
[04:38] <LukeNukem> type this '/join #windows' without quotes
[04:38] <jbubni> yes
[04:38] <urlin2u> snimavat, right click link and then join channel in xchat
[04:38] <LukeNukem> Someone >> http://paste.ubuntu.com/822185/
[04:38] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Why? Didn't it already have an IP?
[04:38] <snimavat> urlin2u -  ok
[04:39] <urlin2u> snimavat, or as suggestd type /join #windows   then hit enter
[04:39] <jbubni> it did i tried changing it to get this working.
[04:39] <jbubni> ip on G is 10.0.3.1
[04:39] <Lirth> Every once in a while Ubuntu will just crash on me. The screen will go black and it'll either log me out or I have to turn it off with the power button. I've noticed it when I open a program every once and a while, but I can't repeat it consistently. Any idea why?
[04:39] <snimavat> LukeNukem - IF I reinstall windows, my softwares will be lost and i have to reinstall every thing right.. ?
[04:40] <LukeNukem> snimavat, yes you will have to.
[04:40] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: Okay. Well, First of all, G is DSL, which I care nothing about in #ubuntu because it's off-topic. Setup G properly with an internet NIC and lan NIC, then start working on your C box connecting to it.
[04:40] <LukeNukem> have you tried letting the setup fix the errors automatically snimavat
[04:41] <urlin2u> snimavat, I would try the correct channel before reinstalling, yes it will all be gone.
[04:41] <LukeNukem> snimavat, wait i have a link for you, this is what i did when i could not boot into windows after i installed mac osx86
[04:41] <snimavat> LukeNukem - I tried windows recovery options, but i did not try and proceed with installation, do u mean installation will ask me to fix issues if i proceed ?
[04:41] <fishcooker> hello LukeNukem.. can u give your opinion abt my question LoL
[04:41] <jbubni> it is only the C ubuntu 11 that i cant get connected through the G
[04:42] <jbubni> arg i need a beer
[04:42] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: No, it's G that's improperly setup, obviously.
[04:42] <LukeNukem> fishcooker, i dont think it makes any difference if your apache folder is out of the file system, if thats what you asked
[04:42] <LukeNukem> i use apache too, but its in my file system. :>, i dont think it gives an option to chose the directory on our own.
[04:43] <LukeNukem> snimavat, did you try bootrec fixmbr?
[04:43] <Psi-Jack> jbubni: If you're doing, ifconfig eth0 10.0.3.1 manually for absolutely no reason, obviously there's something wrong, because you're doing it wrong. Why? There's no netmask in that statement.
[04:44] <LukeNukem> snimavat, basically fixmbr would be resetting your master boot records, after you do this you will have only windows boot option, after booting into windows you will have to download easyBCD and add an entry for ubuntu.
[04:44] <LukeNukem> is that clear?
[04:44] <jbubni> yeah im new to the linux thing... at this point i need a break, wish i would have left ubuntu 10
[04:44] <jbubni> thanks for your efforts to help me /newb
[04:44] <fishcooker> will located on different partition for apache directory like ./bin, /htdocs, /log located make any performance different?
[04:45] <snimavat> LukeNukem - okey, i got it, but right now issue is windows does not boot at all, if i can boot into windows i may later try to fix ubuntu
[04:45] <auk> Psi-Jack: Lemme know whatcha think btw.
[04:45] <LukeNukem> snimavat, yeah you cant boot into it because the boot entry is messed up obviously. so we should fix that and thats what im telling you about
[04:45] <urlin2u> snimavat, you have a the ubuntu cd right?
[04:45] <laylaxo> hey
[04:46] <snimavat> yes
[04:46] <Psi-Jack> auk: Will later. Just got done updating all my VM's for the month. Just kicking back and relaxing now. :)
[04:46] <laylaxo> where is everyone from?
[04:46] <Psi-Jack> auk: Currently I'm just using XFCE, but I do love Gnome 3.2
[04:46] <LukeNukem> wtf is Edubuntu? Educational Ubuntu?
[04:46] <Psi-Jack> laylaxo: Not important.
[04:46] <auk> LukeNukem: Exactly.
[04:46] <snimavat> LukeNukem - i have ubuntu live cd
[04:46] <LukeNukem> hot darn, i think this is what my school uses
[04:47] <snimavat> LukeNukem - right now i am running ubuntu live cd :)
[04:47] <urlin2u> snimavat, boot the ubuntu cd and run this script, it will generate a file called results.txt copy and paste all the text to a pastebin.  http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[04:47] <auk> LukeNukem: That's awesome. Sounds like you're in a smarter school.
[04:47] <LukeNukem> snimavat, does not matter, you cant run bootrec.exe from a live CD
[04:47] <LukeNukem> auk, its a dumb school, IT is the only area where its updated. and thats nice
[04:47] <snimavat> urlin2u - here's my boot info http://pastebin.com/9iY1FCG0
[04:47] <snimavat> urlin2u - this question has all the details http://askubuntu.com/questions/99584/windows-7-wont-boot-after-installing-ubuntu-11
[04:47] <LukeNukem> most schools prefer to use windows 98. im glad i left CBSE schools
[04:48] <urlin2u> snimavat, you have grub in windows, open the windows partition, and find the grub files and remove them.
[04:48] <LukeNukem> snimavat, dude would you just run bootrec?
[04:48] <LukeNukem> o.o
[04:48] <quixotedon> LukeNukem: to my surprise that 98 is still used :(
[04:48] <sagaci> hi, I'm on Ubuntu 11.10 and I've made a small change to my display name in the User Accounts... now the Memenu, or at least the menu that displays your name is nowhere to be seem, is there any way to reload it... I've tried rebooting
[04:48] <snimavat> urlin2u - ok
[04:48] <auk> quixotedon: I know right?!@ Shoot.
[04:49] <urlin2u> snimavat, windo9ws wont boot at times if grub gets put in it.
[04:49] <LukeNukem> quixotedon, yes it is >:(
[04:49] <snimavat> LukeNukem - i ran bootrec /fixmbr already
[04:49] <LukeNukem> snimavat, does not fix it?
[04:49] <urlin2u> snimavat, then we can reload the ms boot or ubuntu's your choice.
[04:49] <quixotedon> sagaci: try changing user accounts
[04:49] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, you get alook at his bootscript?
[04:49] <Jordan_U> snimavat: The problem is that you installed grub to your Windows partition's boot sector. In the future always install grub to the mbr, never to a partition.
[04:50] <LukeNukem> snimavat, try booting into ubuntu live cd, install wine and install EasyBCD(Windows program) and then edit the boot menu to work properly.
[04:50] <leifw> my system locks up and crashes every once in a while, usually when doing something cpu/gpu intensive, but only every couple days.  does anyone know what I can install or start logging to try to diagnose this?
[04:50] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, talking a look
[04:50] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, cool
[04:50] <sagaci> I'll try switching to the guest account, since there's no other "real" accounts on here
[04:50] <snimavat> jordan_U ubuntu did that ! I choose default options every where/
[04:50] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Follow this guide to restore the Windows boot sector: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[04:51] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, it has a lot of windows partitions?
[04:51] <LukeNukem> o.o
[04:51] <sagaci> quixotedon, no luck
[04:51] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Ubuntu installs to the mbr by default, and even in advanced menus of the installer will not allow you to install grub to your Windows partition's boot sector.
[04:51] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, yeah old school I haven't seen using that for a while works great.
[04:51] <snimavat> now I am confued which option to choose, urlin2u says to remove grub files ..
[04:51] <LukeNukem> isn't GRUB Supposed to  be installed in ext4 partition?
[04:51] <urlin2u> snimavat, follow Jordan_U
[04:52] <snimavat> urlin2u ok, thanks.
[04:52] <LukeNukem> snimavat, but try something easier like i said first :P
[04:52] <LukeNukem> oh and next time use wubi or a proper tutorial.
[04:52] <Jordan_U> LukeNukem: Grub's modules are normally installed in the same partition as Ubuntu. grub's boot sector however should be installed to the mbr.
[04:52] <quixotedon> sagaci: have you tried logging of?
[04:52] <LukeNukem> Jordan_U, oh thanks :)
[04:52] <quixotedon> sagaci: sometimes it helps, for me :)
[04:52] <snimavat> Jordan_U- then how did it got installed in windows partition ?
[04:52] <Jordan_U> LukeNukem: You're welcome.
[04:53] <Jordan_U> snimavat: I don't know.
[04:53] <LukeNukem> snimavat, grub is installed in ext4 partition, but the boot sector is installed to the mbr. thats what he said.
[04:54] <LukeNukem> Dont dual boot with windows if you dont need it, i need it for photoshop thats why i god darn dual boot with it :>(
[04:54] <snimavat> jordan_U - that links says "You can repair the boot sector of Windows system partition via "fixboot" from a Windows XP CD, or "bootrect /fixboot" from a Windows Vista/7 CD."
[04:54] <LukeNukem> >:(
[04:54] <snimavat> I have already tried this though.
[04:54] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, dualbooting is fine  have W7 and 4 other linux installs, you just have to know the grub. :D
[04:55] <urlin2u> I*
[04:56] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, yeah dual booting is fine but i just said that if you dont need it, dont do it. I mean there are pretty much good alternatives on Linux for windows applications or you can use VMWware
[04:56] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Earlier you said you ran "bootrec /fixmbr", that is a different command. "bootrec /fixmbr" installs an MS style MBR, "bootrec /fixboot" restores a Microsoft PBR.
[04:56] <LukeNukem> or wine/crossover
[04:56] <SleepingPrgmr> I have a newbie question on installing stuff from source.
[04:56] <SleepingPrgmr> To install stuff I do: ./configure, make, sudo checkinstall
[04:57] <SleepingPrgmr> what do I do if the source file is updated?
[04:57] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, I only use 7 for word and uploading college papers, the link wont read linux.
[04:57] <snimavat> jordan_U i have tried both, first i had tried bootrec /fixboot but that did not solve the issue, so i tried bootrec /fixmbr that too did not sovle then i tried bootrec /RebuildBcd but no luck
[04:57] <LukeNukem> snimavat, please go through these links > 1) http://paste.ubuntu.com/822185/         2)http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392
[04:58] <LukeNukem> ops sorry
[04:58] <snimavat> LukeNukem i have already tried http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392
[04:58] <LukeNukem> 1st link is http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289022
[04:58] <LukeNukem> hmm
[04:59] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, nothing will work for them until grub is removed that is for sure.
[04:59] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Your boot info script output shows that you need to restore your PBR. I don't know why "bootrec /fixboot" didn't work for you, but the testdisk instructions should work.
[04:59] <leifw> anyone know anything about gathering more debugging info from a lockup/crash?
[04:59] <LukeNukem> grub the badass has killed windows boot manager. admit it.
[04:59] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, from 7
[04:59] <snimavat> jordan_U let me try testdisk, that you guyz for being persistent helping me resolve this issue.
[04:59] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, easily fixed but I doubt it.
[04:59] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, why cant you use wine, word processing is a simple task that can be done on WINE
[05:00] <LukeNukem> snimavat, haved you also considered asking in the windows help channel?
[05:00] <Jordan_U> snimavat: You're welcome.
[05:00] <urlin2u> LukeNukem,  dude this is an area I know.
[05:00] <snimavat> jordan_U yes, i got one reply but then no one is talking any thing
[05:00] <LukeNukem> i bet you guys helped him because he wasn't all 'OMG I LOST MY WINDOOOWS'
[05:01] <LukeNukem> =D
[05:01] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, no he had the bootscript and explained in windows better what was going on.
[05:01] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, im pretty good at windows too, but this is an issue i have never heard of, most of my boot issues have been fixed with bootrec fixmbr when chameleon used to mess it up
[05:01] <LukeNukem> i should learn the way GRUB works
[05:02] <snimavat> LukeNukem - I love ubuntu, though I dont knw much abt linux insights, I have licenced win7 but ultimately want to go back to ubuntu, however when I got my this laptop i can not migrate to ubuntu sofar because it has got optimus and i fear i won't be able to make it work, but any way now i had decided i will switch off optimus and use ubuntu, but then now i got this issue.
[05:02] <LukeNukem> also cant he just install windows over GRUB..all his programs would be in windows.old afaik
[05:02] <leifw> *sigh* ubuntu community support
[05:03] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, what is optimux?
[05:03] <LukeNukem> s*
[05:03] <snimavat> jordan_U trying testdisck
[05:03] <LukeNukem> snimavat, is this a branded laptop? like HP and stuff
[05:03] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, that's snimavat I have no idea
[05:04] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, lets let Jordan_U you help them he knows this stuff really well.
[05:04] <LukeNukem> afaik, banded laptops have their own boot.ini
[05:04] <LukeNukem> and you dont ever wanna mess that up.
[05:04] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, not W7
[05:04] <urlin2u> thats XP
[05:04] <LukeNukem> oh i did not know that because on a toshiba laptop i dual boot xp and 7 and i removed XP, but it had the boot.ini >:(
[05:05] <LukeNukem> snimavat, what is optimus, and how are you on the irc now?
[05:06] <flowerpot> LukeNukem, I dual-boot Windows XP and Ubuntu on a "branded" Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop just fine.
[05:06] <jiltdil> Is there any IDE available for c++ as for java like Eclipse ?
[05:06] <flowerpot> jiltdil, Eclipse.
[05:06] <snimavat> LukeNukem - optimus is so called advanced GPU switching technology from nvidia - I doubt that you really dont knw about it.
[05:06] <jiltdil> flowerpot,  is  c++ works on eclipse?
[05:07] <flowerpot> jiltdil, if you install the right modules, yes
[05:07] <flowerpot> jiltdil, google eclipse c++ and i'm sure you'll find the right place
[05:07] <LukeNukem> flowerpot, well you've got grub...try dual booting XP and 7 and format the XP Partition
[05:07] <LukeNukem> i believe XP is the default os that came with it
[05:07] <jiltdil> flowerpot,  thanks ! But eclipse package is available in ubuntu s/w center
[05:08] <_sjs> http://eclipse.org/cdt/
[05:08] <codepal> auk: I'm dumb, I can't figure how to use ubuntu tweak :'(
[05:09] <auk> Wowwies. What'cha trying to tweak?
[05:09] <flowerpot> jiltdil, check out eclipse-cdt via apt-cache show eclipse-cdt
[05:09] <urlin2u> codelurker, what's the problem?
[05:09] <urlin2u> codepal,  what's the problem?
[05:09] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, can you take a look, im running the three commands one by one in terminal but i get unknown command conf.sh :\ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822198/
[05:09] <jiltdil> flowerpot,  thanks
[05:10] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, no idea here
[05:10] <snimavat> clear

[05:10] <|Anthony|> Josh|KilljoyX23, you might need to edit your boot priority in BIOS
[05:11] <|Anthony|> how do i break a lan connection?
[05:11] <|Anthony|> i used "Connect to Server" to establish a file share with a local machine, but even after i unmount the location, i am still connected via netbios-ssn 139 and microsoft-ds 445
[05:11] <codepal> gnome3 shell extensions - with ubuntu tweak - you know :!!:
[05:11] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, I'm not familiar with it, I rarely install beyond a deb
[05:11] <LukeNukem> _sjs, oh that worked..
[05:11] <urlin2u> codepal, what is the ubuntu release?
[05:11] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, is it possible to remove DE?
[05:11] <Josh|KilljoyX23> Is there a universal F key for changing boot priority? Or should i just go through them all? :)
[05:12] <codepal> urlin2u: 12.04
[05:12] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, not sure there either I have not run headless with a remove.
[05:12] <auk> codepal: gnome-tweak-tool       is the tool?
[05:12] <LukeNukem> ok
[05:12] <|Anthony|> Josh|KilljoyX23, when you boot your laptop, there should be a boot screen that gives you available Fx buttons... might be F2 or DEL sometimes
[05:13] <Josh|KilljoyX23> yeah it wasn't showing. I will try those two and see what I can find.
[05:14] <|Anthony|> Josh|KilljoyX23,  could be F10 or F12... ask google about your laptop and a manual
[05:14] <Josh|KilljoyX23> Alright, i will try that. Thank you!
[05:14] <codepal> auk: installed it, can't see where to add themes...
[05:14] <codepal> auk: might go manual install of them :(
[05:14] <fishcooker> LukeNukem, how about different partition for ubuntu installation for filesystem? does it make different performance?
[05:14] <LukeNukem> fishcooker, what did you mean exactly?
[05:15] <quixotedon> LukeNukem: i've been using 'branded' Dell inspiron 14 serie 4030 with no OS then i installed win7 then added ubuntu and have been using ubuntu most of the time for more than a year and there's no boot.ini stuff (probably because it has no OS pre-installed
[05:15] <urlin2u> codepal, just so you know the 12.04 channel is #ubuntu+1
[05:15] <codepal> urlin2u: it's so quiet in there I can hear a pin drop....
[05:15] <LukeNukem> BRB
[05:15] <LukeNukem> quixotedon, if it came with no OS preinstalled then its fine.
[05:16] <auk> codepal: Just drop themes into: /home/YOURNAME-HEHERE/.themes folder.          Then you run gnome-tweak-tool
[05:16] <urlin2u> codepal, yeah but thats the breaks, sorry, >D
[05:16] <agu10> I have an issue in compiz, look: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9535762/Screenshot%20at%202012-01-30%2002%3A11%3A27.png
[05:16] <LukeNukem> im talking about ones that has os preinstalled
[05:16] <auk> Since unity has no "theme installer" tool.
[05:16] <quixotedon> all: any channel for ubuntu newbies??
[05:16] <auk> quixotedon: This channel. Ask another question.
[05:16] <codepal> auk: that easy, you don't say, wow!
[05:16] <urlin2u> agu10, your link 404's here.
[05:16] <operatorplik> any body help me..... how to instal file zip in ubuntu 10.10
[05:17] <codepal> auk: just the zips?
[05:17] <quixotedon> auk: thanks!
[05:17] <auk> codepal: Gotta extract first.
[05:17] <snimavat> jordan_U I followed the test disck steps, rebooting now, will be back in few mins. Thanks
[05:18] <auk> codepal: Like that Radience folder I got from my .deb file you told me to get... That worked out well.
[05:18] <quixotedon> operatorplik: 7zip is a good choice and it's available at ubuntu software centre
[05:18] <codepal> auk: bd
[05:19] <auk> bd? o_O
[05:19] <codepal> bd = great - thumbs up!
[05:20] <quixotedon> codepal: is bd a new code for pals (a bit out of topic though) ?? :)
[05:20] <codepal> quixotedon: it's like lol - a infamy on IRC
[05:20] <felipe_Brz> how strong is ubuntu's default password-protected ZIP compression? I mean, what algorithm is used, and so on?
[05:21] <chuck_tes> hi there. i was wondering if someone could help me?
[05:21] <agu10> http://miralaonline.net/images/VUcDA.jpg
[05:21] <_sjs> ask away
[05:21] <quixotedon> chuck_tes: what help do you need?
[05:21] <chuck_tes> it doesn't have to do with ubuntu, but i can't find help anywhere else.
[05:22] <chuck_tes> im trying to change section titles on a website template I got.
[05:22] <urlin2u> agu10, you on unity?
[05:22] <chuck_tes> http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_244_diamond_cafe
[05:22] <chuck_tes> this template
[05:22] <agu10> urlin2u, yes
[05:23] <urlin2u> agu10, youn have the tube is everything else working?
[05:23] <chuck_tes> i can't figure out how to change the section titels (Introduction, Our Company, Products, ect)?
[05:23] <agu10> urlin2u, yep
[05:23] <_sjs> I'm not a flash guy, but I'd guess you would need the .fla
[05:23] <chuck_tes> I know I can't change it in the CSS. I checked the html and its not in there. Each section has specific xml files but still can't figure it out adn its driving me mad.
[05:24] <chuck_tes> yeah i have the .fal
[05:24] <agu10> wobbly windows are not fluid or smooth... they're laggy
[05:24] <chuck_tes> .fla*
[05:24] <urlin2u> agu10, cool. :D
[05:24] <_sjs> chuck_tes, do you have flash?
[05:24] <chuck_tes> yes
[05:25] <_sjs> so when you open it up, there's no way to select the text boxes and change the content?
[05:25] <snimavat> jordan_U after trying testdisck, now my grub is fixed so i can see boot menu and see entries for ubuntu and windows 7
[05:25] <snimavat> currently I am successfully loggged into ubuntu, however on bootmenu when I choose windows 7, after a sec boot menu is displayed again (the same problem i had before i did bootrec /fixmbr) but windows will not boot
[05:25] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Can you run boot info script again and pastebin the new RESULTS.txt?
[05:26] <urlin2u> snimavat, run sudo update-grub and then try windows
[05:26] <snimavat> okey let me do bootinfo script first and thn will try update_grub.
[05:26] <urlin2u> snimavat, the script as well is great.
[05:27] <chuck_tes> well thats the thing, I open it in adobe flash, and there is one occurence of a button label, but somehow something else is causing it to show up repeatedly down the list
[05:27] <urlin2u> snimavat, just run the script for Jordan_U
[05:27] <chuck_tes> if you download the template, the .fla is indcluded. its hard to me to explain.
[05:27] <chuck_tes> like there is only 1 text box, not multiple text boxes.
[05:28] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, sorry man I didn't check if you were still here, carry on . :)
[05:29] <ModFather> i got problem with my ubuntu Oneiric version, suddenly stoped accepting connections after a stress test.
[05:29] <ModFather> i can connect with it via Internal IP
[05:29] <Jordan_U> urlin2u: np :)
[05:29] <ModFather> and i have not enabled any firewall
[05:30] <snimavat> jordan_U boot info results http://pastebin.com/RzrgyrMR
[05:31] <Jordan_U> snimavat: For the step in the instructions "Select the Windows system partition  and choose "boot"" What partition did you choose? (sda1, sda2, etc)
[05:32] <snimavat> OSDisk /desv/sda1 i guess.
[05:32] <sjihs> Hi all, I am using xubuntu 11.04. Is it possible to install ubuntu-mono fonts on this version of ubuntu?
[05:32] <snimavat> should i try again ?
[05:32] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Are you sure it was /dev/sda1 that you chose?
[05:33] <auk> sjihs: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-mono
[05:33] <snimavat> jordan_U i remember i choose the partition that was labeled OSDISCK,  may i try again ?
[05:34] <nanock> hi
[05:34] <nanock> am i in ubuntu channel
[05:35] <nanock> ok
[05:35] <nanock> anyone kows anything about ubuntu on arm
[05:35] <Jordan_U> snimavat: That was the correct partition to choose, but you still don't have microsoft PBR code in sda1. My only guess as to why is that the backup copy is bad as well (how that would happen I have no idea though). I think testdisk has an option to generate a proper Windows PBR rather than trying to restore from backup, that's what I would try next.
[05:36] <nanock> ok
[05:36] <snimavat> jordan_U - okey, so what can we do now.
[05:36] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Actually, first, since you're booted into your Ubuntu install, can you pastebin the output of "ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/" and of "debconf-show grub-pc"?
[05:36] <nanock> no one with arm and ubuntu
[05:36] <snimavat> jordan_U okey , one min
[05:37] <Jordan_U> nanock: Are you working for an OEM?
[05:37] <nanock> i want to install ubuntu on my nokia n96....anyone knows how can i do?
[05:37] <agu10> how can I fix my compiz issues?
[05:37] <nanock> no
[05:37] <nanock> jordan u
[05:38] <nanock> i want to install ubuntu on my nokia n96....anyone knows how can i do?
[05:38] <Jordan_U> nanock: Every ARM device is different, in a way that no two x86 PCs are. An individual user doesn't really have the resources needed to port Ubuntu to a device on their own.
[05:38] <nanock> thanks in advance
[05:38] <urlin2u> agu10, whst's it doing now?
[05:38] <snimavat> jordan_U here's output for first command http://pastebin.com/HUPdjnFA
[05:39] <snimavat> jordan_U here's another http://pastebin.com/DTNiP4RF
[05:40] <nanock> ache.... it;s so bad... i wish i could
[05:41] <Jordan_U> snimavat: OK. The grub-pc package is configured incorrectly. Let's fix that first. Run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" it will ask you some questions...
[05:41] <snimavat> ok
[05:41] <agu10> urlin2u, http://miralaonline.net/images/VUcDA.jpg
[05:42] <BEARJEW> is anyone there?
[05:42] <Jordan_U> snimavat: For the first two questions, about linux command line options, just press Enter to continue with them at their defaults. (The first will be blank, that's OK)
[05:43] <snimavat> jordan_U i have no idea what answers to choose, it asks me "following line was extracted from /etc/default/grub or the 'kopt'"
[05:43] <snimavat> parameter in grub, legacy menu list, pelase verify that it is correct and npdofy if necessary . command line is empty
[05:44] <Jordan_U> snimavat: For the first two questions, about linux command line options, just press Enter to continue with them at their defaults. (The first will be blank, that's OK)
[05:44] <urlin2u> agu10, so it looks didtoted did you tweak it some more?
[05:44] <urlin2u> distorted agu10
[05:44] <snimavat> jordan_U "The following string will be used as Linux parameters for the default menu entry but not for the recovery " "quite splash"
[05:45] <Jordan_U> snimavat: That's fine, press enter to continue.
[05:45] <Jordan_U> snimavat: For the next question, about install devices, you want to make sure that there is only a '*' next to /dev/sda, and NOT one next to /dev/sda1. Use space bar to select / deselect devices and press Enter when you're done to continue.
[05:45] <urlin2u> agu10, compiz --replace will restart compiz
[05:46] <snimavat>  jordan_U it gave me chose for dev/sda and dev/sda5 - I am choosing dev/sda
[05:46] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Great. Once there is a '*' next to /dev/sda press Enter to continue.
[05:47] <snimavat> jordan_U done
[05:47] <sjihs> auk: "apt-get install ubuntu-mono" says the package is already installed. But i don't find "ubuntu mono" entry in the font dialog boxes.
[05:47] <auk> Then it might be known as mono.
[05:47] <auk> o_O
[05:47] <snimavat> i got message "Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1" as well
[05:48] <hydrox24_> snimavat: that is normal
[05:48] <sjihs> auk: Selecting monospace entry gives me the Dejavu mono fonts
[05:48] <snimavat> jordan_U here's the output if u need to look at http://pastebin.com/EG7pKMk6 .
[05:48] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Follow the testdisk steps again but stop before the "BackupBS" step.
[05:49] <hydrox24_> hydrox24_: that is grub detecting the windows OS, I even have a windows OS bootloader on multiple partitions.
[05:49] <snimavat> jordan_U ok
[05:49] <JackAnansi> quick question about SSH and ports: I've heard that using port 22 for SSH-server can allow bots to try to bruteforce their way in. do I need to change the port, and if so, what should I change it to?
[05:50] <somsip> JackAnansi: you don't need to, it might only deter casual attackers if you do, something less than 1024 if you do (though some sites will say any port)
[05:51] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Tell me when you're ready for the next step.
[05:52] <snimavat> jordan_U on second screen "t the hard drive containing  the Windows system partition and  choose "proceed"" it gives me just one choice
[05:52] <snimavat> dev/sda i should choose that and proceed right
[05:52] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Yes.
[05:52] <JackAnansi> somsip: I set up a firewall exception for port 22 for computers on my local network (192.168.1.0/24) Am I pretty much secure?
[05:53] <somsip> JackAnansi: the best way to find if you are secure for SSH is to monitor the auth.log.
[05:53] <kalgecin> JackAnansi, not a must
[05:53] <snimavat> jordan_U on fifth screen "Select the Windows system partition  and choose "boot" it gives me choice for 1. HPFS - NTFS [OSDisk]
[05:54] <snimavat> jordan_U - That is correct choice right
[05:54] <kkb110> Q: is compiling ubuntu kernel in other distros (e.g. archlinux) feasible?
[05:55] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Correct.
[05:55] <snimavat> jordan_U now i am on BackupBS
[05:56] <pnorman> I just checked my auth.log, I see that someone tried to SSH in as root repeatedly
[05:56] <JackAnansi> somsip: kalgecin: alright. between not having anything worth messing with and only permitting guest logins via ssh, I think I should be okay :) thanks
[05:56] <snimavat> jordan_U here i see choice for "Rebuild BS" and not "BackupBS"
[05:56] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Choose "[Rebuild BS]".
[05:57] <hydrox24_> I'm having issues with the permissions of my dropbox folder which is in a Data partition, which is in turn mounted at boot
[05:57] <snimavat> jordan_U ok
[05:58] <snimavat> Jordan_U what should i do in next screen - [Dump] [List] [Write] [Quit]
[05:58] <selite> Ubuntu overheats on my machine. I can hear the fans. Any ideas?
[05:58] <Jordan_U> snimavat: "[Write]"
[05:59] <snimavat> Jordan_U - done, quite now ?
[05:59] <pnorman> selite: laptop?
[05:59] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Yes. Quit and re-run boot info script.
[06:00] <selite> pnorman: Sony Vaio.
[06:01] <snimavat> jordan_U boot info http://pastebin.com/4avpRq3E
[06:02] <selite> My Ubuntu OS is causing my laptop to overheat, how do I fix that?
[06:03] <pnorman> selite: I don't use a laptop so I can't help much, but it could either not be running the fans fast enough, or not making use of the power saving features of the laptop
[06:03] <SirMeepsalot> hmmm have you tried a lighter distro, maybe mint or slackware?
[06:04] <SirMeepsalot> ubuntu is nice, you could always try the server build that doesn't use a gui
[06:05] <tapassaini> hello everyone
[06:05] <SirMeepsalot> hi
[06:06] <LukeNukem> hola
[06:06] <snimavat> Jordan_U fyi, boot infor shows this warning as well ""gawk" could not be found, using "busybox awk" instead. This may lead to unreliable results."
[06:06] <snimavat> Jordan_U : http://pastebin.com/4avpRq3E
[06:09] <tapassaini> the best ubuntu distro...
[06:09] <snimavat> Jordan_U : this is boot info after installing gawk http://pastebin.com/3wm0dWWw
[06:09] <Jordan_U> snimavat: I don't think that will affect what we're seeing, and it seems that that didn't fix the problem either. This is one way we should be able to work around this using grub, but it will mean that Windows will only be bootable through grub (don't try to remove Ubuntu or you'll lose access to Windows).
[06:09] <Jordan_U> snimavat: *There is one way...
[06:10] <North> what is the command for formatting the spare HDD?
[06:10] <snimavat> Jordan_U - yes, okey, what can we do.
[06:13] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Run "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/custom.cfg", paste this into the text file that comes up: http://paste.ubuntu.com/822240/ and save.
[06:15] <Jordan_U> snimavat: When you're done, close gedit and run "cat /boot/grub/custom.cfg" and pastebin the output (so that I can confirm that the file is correct).
[06:15] <North> Jordan_U:  Do you know the command for formatting spare HDD?
[06:16] <illyaillya1> @search Joseph Conrad
[06:16] <donscarface> can anyone help me delete the partitions on ubuntu linux so i can install windows from cd ?
[06:17] <Jordan_U> North: You need to clarify what you mean by "Format"? What do you want to do to the drive exactly (add an ext4 partition, add an NTFS partition, delete all existing partitions, etc)
[06:17] <urlin2u> donscarface, just install over it.
[06:18] <donscarface> its not starting boot from disc
[06:18] <snimavat> Jordan_U : http://pastebin.com/8d7bXsMX
[06:18] <urlin2u> donscarface, you should try ##indows
[06:18] <urlin2u> ##windows donscarface
[06:18] <donscarface> okie
[06:19] <Jordan_U> snimavat: That looks good. Try rebooting, and select the entry "Windows 7 (loader) with grub ntldr workaround".
[06:19] <North> Jordan_U: ummmmm I want to delete all files.
[06:19] <snimavat> Jordan_U : oke, restarting, will be back in few mins.
[06:19] <pehden> simple question whats the mouse program called to do the side scroll and bottom scroll for laptop
[06:20] <Jordan_U> North: Why? What is your end goal? (so that I can tell if you need to securely wipe the contents, just overwrite the paritition table, etc)
[06:20] <pehden> i know it starts with the letter s
[06:20] <urlin2u> pehden, you looked in mouse for what you need?
[06:21] <pehden> i searched software center
[06:21] <North> Jordan_U: that HDD is spare one. I have once installed Ubuntu 10.04. I could not boot the PC with that version.
[06:21] <JanisBe> Hello, I have problem installing Ubuntu from USB-stick, installer cannot find CD-ROM device (because I don't have it). I cannot google this problem solution, maybe you can help me?
[06:22] <North> Jordan_U: And I installed 8.04 ver. on another HDD.
[06:22] <urlin2u> pehden, in mouse touchpad which is installed are controls, not sure about sidi to side.
[06:23] <North> Jordan_U: I want to use that HDD as secondary one after deleting all files.
[06:23] <frostbytn> Hi all
[06:23] <North> Jordan_U: I found out that I could not delete the directories and files.
[06:24] <urlin2u> JanisBe, you sre trying how to boot a bios change of boot order or the post bios boot from gui?
[06:24] <urlin2u> are*
[06:24] <snimavat> Jordan_U : Great, I was able to boot into windiwows successfully, currently I am in ubuntu again.
[06:24] <pehden> thanks urlin2u thats what i was looking for
[06:24] <urlin2u> pehden, cool.
[06:25] <JanisBe> urlin2u, post bios boot
[06:25] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Great.
[06:25] <urlin2u> JanisBe, and you see only the HD?
[06:25] <pehden> urlin2u i was searching mouse instead of touchpad **facepalm**
[06:25] <urlin2u> pehden, :D
[06:25] <snimavat> Jordan_U - so now grub loads win7 instead of win7 boot loader doing this, is that correct ?
[06:26] <JanisBe> urlin2u, I have multiple options where to boot from and I select USB-HDD0
[06:26] <urlin2u> JanisBe, you tried every one sometimes the usb can be read as another device?
[06:27] <urlin2u> JanisBe, I assume one is not a windows recovery here.
[06:27] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Not quite. Before You had Grub loading the Windows partition's boot sector (PBR), which then loaded /bootmgr, which then boots Windows. Now Grub loads /bootmgr directly, but it's still bootmgr which boots Windows.
[06:28] <JanisBe> urlin2u, nope, this option is correct, I see initial installation info, and after that installation says that it cannot find CD-ROM media
[06:28] <urlin2u> JanisBe, sound like a bad load to the usb, how did you load it, or a bad iso.
[06:29] <snimavat> Jordan_U : okey, so now do i have anyway that windows can boot without ubuntu, though I dont want to remove ubuntu, but if ever required. can we make win7 boot without needing ubuntu
[06:30] <Jordan_U> JanisBe: That error generally means that for some reason the kernel can't access your USB drive (possibly driver problems). It can be worked around using the minimal / netinstall installer (which downloads all packages from the internet during install).
[06:30] <snimavat> Jordan_U : and btw what was wrong that prohibits win7 boot, so if i get issues next time, i can do some googling my self, I may not get as great support as u next time :)
[06:30] <JanisBe> Jordan_U, ok, i'll try minimal installation :)
[06:31] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Yes. There are two options, 1: Figure out how to fix the PBR properly since nothing we tried worked 2: Install grub with its files in your Windows partition so that you can remove the Ubuntu partition (which is where /boot/grub/ is currently stored).
[06:32] <snimavat> Jordan_U : You already spent a lot of time helping me, may you help me with any of these options ?
[06:33] <Jordan_U> snimavat: Or of course 3: Reinstall Windows.
[06:33] <Fudge> can i clarify, you can dd an iso to a pendrive and then boot off it if your boot order is correct?
[06:33] <snimavat> I will fallback to resintall if nothing works. i dint have dell recovery as well.
[06:34] <Jordan_U> snimavat: I've done all I can think of to for 1, and I don't think it's worth doing 2 at the moment since everything is working and should continue to as long as you keep Ubuntu.
[06:35] <snimavat> Jordan_U : okey, i dont plan to remove ubuntu though, but I fear if some how some thing breaks again, I wount be able to fix any thing. So if possible, i would like to make every thing clean. I am quite sorry for saying this.
[06:38] <Jordan_U> snimavat: I understand completely. Unfortunately right now you have a problem which very few people would understand. If something goes wrong in the future I would recommend that you keep a backup copy of /boot/grub/custom.cfg, go to the channel #grub here, and explain to them the problem and that that entry (the one in custom.cfg) worked around the problem last time.
[06:38] <snimavat> Jordan_U : sure. Do u think this link may help us http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/
[06:38] <Jordan_U> snimavat: I wish I could leave you with a more manageable situation, but I can't think of anything better to do at the moment.
[06:38] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, hehe smattering of applause for your work. :)
[06:39] <snimavat> Also, should I try on #grub for fixing option #1 or #2
[06:39] <Jordan_U> snimavat: No, that guide would not help.
[06:41] <sivakumar_> hai all... i want to install gcc 3.3 in ubuntu 10.04, can any body tell me a way out please??
[06:41] <Jordan_U> snimavat: #grub should definitely be able to help you with #2 (if you choose to get rid of Ubuntu in the future) but it's a problem with the Windows bootloader, not with grub, so I think #1 would be somewhat offtopic for #grub.
[06:49] <_godhelpme> having problems to umount a usb drive
[06:50] <urlin2u> _godhelpme, has it been mounted by fstab?
[06:50] <fishcooker> LukeNukem, is there any big difference installing ubuntu on single partition or multiple partition?
[06:51] <_godhelpme> urlin2u, i just used mount -t vfat /sdb1 /media/usb
[06:51] <_godhelpme> urlin2u, i just used mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/usb
[06:53] <lotuspsychje> _godhelpme: you could install pysdm to automount all partitions at boot
[06:53] <urlin2u> _godhelpme, here is a wiki that should help. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Unmounting_Explained
[06:54] <_godhelpme> urlin2u, it's not in fstab or mtab
[06:55] <urlin2u> _godhelpme, cool that page has your origianl mount command and unount.
[06:55] <urlin2u> unmount
[06:55] <linocisco> hi all
[06:55] <linocisco> as I could not join #android successfully
[06:55] <linocisco> Let me ask here about my android problem
[06:56] <theadmin> linocisco: You need to register your nickname
[06:56] <lotuspsychje> !android
[06:56] <theadmin> !register | linocisco
[06:56] <LukeNukem> theadmin, hi there
[06:56] <theadmin> LukeNukem: hai
[06:56] <_godhelpme> urlin2u, it says my device is busy
[06:56] <snimavat> Jordan_U : sorry i was disconnected. Thanks a lot for helping me.. I wouldnt have been able to make it work again otherwise.
[06:56] <LukeNukem> i installed panatheon shell and i think i ruined my ubuntu :s
[06:57] <Jordan_U> snimavat: You're welcome.
[06:57] <urlin2u> _godhelpme, thats about the extent I know I rarely mount that way.
[06:57] <LukeNukem> i mean i cant right click on desktop to create new folder or file
[06:57] <urlin2u> _godhelpme, make sure nothing is open from it.
[06:58] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-create-desktop-launchers-in-ubuntu-11-10oneiric.html
[06:58] <theadmin> LukeNukem: Nautilus manages desktop with GNOME... Add it to your thing's autostart with --no-default-window
[06:59] <LukeNukem> theadmin, what
[06:59] <_godhelpme> umount problem device is busy
[07:00] <theadmin> LukeNukem: You replaced the gnome's default shell with Pantheon, which doesn't appear to be able to manage the desktop
[07:00] <theadmin> LukeNukem: So you need to use the traditional way with nautilus
[07:00] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, not what i meant, normally in ubuntu desktop i can right click and click on create new folder..
[07:00] <LukeNukem> :<
[07:00] <LukeNukem> but Unity and GNOME 3 had this feature
[07:01] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, I know that link will give you that, but theadmin has a fix as well
[07:01] <LukeNukem> to hell with these shells, im gonna reinstall ubuntu and use XFCE
[07:01] <LukeNukem> STUPID EYE CANDY
[07:01] <theadmin> LukeNukem: lol good idea
[07:01] <razorfish> i use cinnamon
[07:01] <razorfish> its ＼(　*¯∇¯)ノ ☆ＦＡＢＵＬＯＵＳ～☆
[07:01] <LukeNukem> does it look good?
[07:01] <LukeNukem> lol
[07:02] <theadmin> LukeNukem: Cinnamon is pretty sweet although slow somewhat
[07:02] <_godhelpme> theadmin, could you help me umount a drive
[07:02] <LukeNukem> i broke my Unity messing with compiz
[07:02] <urlin2u> LukeNukem, ah folder that is strange it should be working.
[07:02] <theadmin> _godhelpme: sudo umount devicename doesn't work?
[07:02] <razorfish> theadmin: lol faster than unity
[07:02] <LukeNukem> urlin2u, i think i did not install the entire Pantheon shell :\
[07:02] <_godhelpme> theadmin, device busy
[07:03] <gambit2> hi there

[07:04] <lotuspsychje> ok tnx
[07:04] <_godhelpme> theadmin, i was trying to umount while my path was still in the mount point
[07:05] <theadmin> _godhelpme: lol oh
[07:05] <gambit2> I mean how to make port 22 open on my ubuntu?
[07:05] <theadmin> gambit2: All ports are open by default
[07:06] <snimavat> Just updated http://askubuntu.com/questions/99584/windows-7-wont-boot-after-installing-ubuntu-11
[07:06] <snimavat> So it may help some one, or some one may help us fix it completely. Thanks once more.
[07:06] <gambit2> theadmin : but somehow my other machine using ssh can't connect to my port 22
[07:06] <theadmin> _godhelpme: For the future, "fuser -km /dev/sdb1" will kill all processes accessing anything on /dev/sdb1.
[07:06] <theadmin> gambit2: You need to configure your router.
[07:06] <gambit2> machine1: ssh: connect to host machine1 port 22: Connection timed out
[07:10] <lotuspsychje> ssh | gambit2
 : how to check that my machine can connect to certain ipaddress and port?
[07:11] <Ben64> gambit2: nmap
[07:12] <snimavat> urlin2u : May I know what was ur solution of removing the boot files from windows parition ?
[07:12] <snimavat> Just to have the idea,
[07:13] <gambit2> Ben64 : it's said it hasn't installed yet
[07:13] <Ben64> gambit2: then install it :)
[07:13] <lotuspsychje> gambit2: sudo apt-get install nmap
[07:14] <Yuqian> Excuse me ,because of my fault ,I took out my USB flash disk when it was working ,then when I mount it again ,it's name changed into /dev/sdc1(the original name had been /dev/sdb1)
[07:15] <Yuqian> I wangt to know howto get it's original name?
[07:15] <Yuqian> I wan't to know howto get it's original name?
[07:16] <houken> hi
[07:16] <gambit2> Ben64 : so what to do next to check the ipaddress with it's port number
[07:16] <gambit2> ?
[07:16] <gambit2> thanks :)
[07:17] <Ben64> gambit2: man nmap
[07:17] <Ben64> theres a ton of options
[07:17] <razorfish> any opinions on xbmc lately? i havent used it in like 5 years, just wondering if its worth using
[07:17] <lotuspsychje> hi houken
[07:17] <lotuspsychje> gambit2: nmap -PN -sV the ip adress you wanna scan
[07:18] <houken> i have a question with cursor theme
[07:18] <lotuspsychje> !info xbmc
[07:18] <gambit2> lotuspsychje : how about the port?
[07:19] <houken> i am finding a specific cursor theme, that the gesture is pointing to left. it is the default cursor theme of x windows
[07:19] <lotuspsychje> gambit2: with this command it will show all open ports
[07:19] <gambit2> o ic, but it's normal to just hanging?
[07:20] <gambit2> because it's look like waiting for something but doesn't finished until now
[07:20] <gambit2> Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2012-01-30 07:19 UTC
[07:20] <bobo37773> gambit2: That is normal.
[07:20] <gambit2> how long does it normally takes?
[07:21] <bobo37773> gambit2: If you are confused then try zenmap maybe.
[07:21] <lotuspsychje> gambit2: thats normal some hosts take a while,
[07:21] <lotuspsychje> gambit2: note that portscanning is illegal if its not your own machine
[07:24] <lotuspsychje> howto fix a corrupt mouse pointer in unity(square-like corrupt icon) only reboot temp fixes this?
[07:24] <Ben64> lotuspsychje: it is not illegal to portscan
[07:25] <lotuspsychje> Ben64; in my country if you portscan me, i can goto my isp and start a case...
[07:25] <Ben64> Belgium?
[07:26] <lotuspsychje> yes
[07:27] <Ben64> i don't think its illegal
[07:27] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: im pretty sure it is, depending what scan options of course
[07:27] <pangolin> to be safe it is best to not port scan without permission.
[07:28] <Ben64> "...possesion of information about other systems with the intent to gain access to them, and attempts to gain access illegal."
[07:28] <Ben64> just port scanning isn't illegal
[07:28] <LukeNukem> hello guys
[07:29] <LukeNukem> ive uninstalled pantheon shell but it still appears while logging in that gear icon :|
[07:29] <lotuspsychje> pangolin: think the same
[07:30] <susundberg> In Finland somebody got sentence from port-scanning bank servers
[07:30] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: you can always try yourself mailing roadrunner to see if its allowed
[07:30] <pangolin> anyway, it is out of the scope of this channel
[07:33] <sere> is there an easy offline repo tool possbly with gui
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> susundberg: lol portscanning a bank would be a bad idea indeed :p

[07:49] <Gentoo64> lol

[07:53] <zamiel> do you recall a usernick "switchtech"
[07:53] <syddraf_> zennez0009: That key is usually called <Super>. What did you want to use it for?

[07:59] <ranjan> hi all, anybody here using Freeipa authentication for ubuntu?
[07:59] <hydrox24_> zamiel: If you try and switch to his nick but he has it registered, it will alert you to his email address
[07:59] <ranjan> I dont think Ubuntu is enterprise ready
[08:00] <hydrox24> ranjan: why?
[08:00] <snow_wons> I have problems with tp-link wireless usb, using ath9k_htc driver -I think- the internet disconnect after a minute after connecting
[08:00] <quixotedon> ranjan: have you tried ubuntu enterprise edition?
[08:00] <sere> !offline
[08:01] <hydrox24> quixotedon: ranjan I was just thinking the same thing
[08:01] <ranjan> hydrox24: quixotedon what is the difference between Ubuntu normal edition and enterprise edition?
[08:01] <quixotedon> snow_wons: i think it's the same here, i'm using zte usb mobile broadband and recently it has been going wild, on off but today it works superbly fine
[08:01] <ranjan> hydrox24: see how simple is it to join a fedora or suse machine to ldap, kerberos or ipa. but Ubuntu doesnt have none of those configuration tools other than manually editing the configuration files
[08:02] <snow_wons> I am not sure if it is a driver issue or something else issue
[08:02] <quixotedon> ranjan: it worth to try though i haven't, then that time after trying it you can give your verdict, :)
[08:02] <snow_wons> quixotedon: I have to reconnect to same network every other minute
[08:03] <goddard> so my mp4 file is like 350mb can i still stream this?
[08:03] <quixotedon> snow_wons: mine has generic driver only, it hurts when you are in the middle of downloading, the connection is off then you have to restart it again
[08:03] <ranjan> quixotedon: what to try ? i dont know ubuntu having a separate enterprise edition
[08:04] <ranjan> quixotedon: every one in ubuntu is running behind eyecandy things.
[08:04] <quixotedon> snow_wons: have you tried checking the vendor's website? probably they have an update of the driver

[08:10] <kexanie> can anybody help me ?
[08:10] <quixotedon> ranjan: i don't know much about other OS than ubuntu or suse :)
[08:10] <ranjan> quixotedon: and also all the folks are moving with Gnome3 and its only ubuntu is with Unity
[08:10] <quixotedon> snow_wons: pretty bad, same as my experience
[08:11] <quixotedon> kexanie: what do you need?
[08:11] <ranjan> quixotedon: so to keep up with the GNU i should stay away from Ubuntu

[08:11] <snow_wons> quixotedon: any idea how to debug my problem?
[08:12] <quixotedon> kexanie: i have bad experience with wine as well :(
[08:12] <quixotedon> snow_wons: can't help with technical stuff, the others might be able to
[08:13] <kexanie> my system is "Ubuntu 11.10" and wine version is "wine-1.3.28"
[08:13] <kexanie> quixotedon: can you help me to fix it  ?
[08:14] <quixotedon> kexanie: i can't, sorry
[08:14] <kexanie> . . .
[08:14] <helmut_> hi
[08:17] <hydrox24> helmut_: hi!
[08:18] <hydrox24> kexanie: Unfortunately, those error messages relate to unimplemented parts of windows in the WINE project and need to be fixed/examined by a WINE developer
[08:18] <popey> quixotedon: there is no 'enterprise edition'
[08:19] <kexanie> but when in "Ubuntu 11.04" , it runs well
[08:19] <hydrox24> popey: I think we both meant Ubuntu "server"
[08:19] <kexanie> i wine the same program , and it runs well , now i cant wine any program ,even though i reinstall wine
[08:19] <hydrox24> popey: It is often referred to as the enterprise edition
[08:20] <hydrox24> kexanie: What? no program at all works?
[08:20] <popey> hydrox24: it shouldn't be. we don't have an enterprise edition
[08:20] <hydrox24> maybe they used to and they merged it into the server, I don't have a clue.
[08:20] <quixotedon> kexanie: have you tried uninstalling that program??
[08:21] <popey> hydrox24: i do have a clue, and no we didnt
[08:21] <kexanie> it's just one .exe file
[08:21] <quixotedon> hydrox24: http://www.ubuntu.com/business what does this link say? i have no clue at all, i'm still a newbie :)
[08:21] <hydrox24> I gtg sorry
[08:21] <quixotedon> also on the official website, it says about ubuntu tv, i think this is something promising in the future
[08:22] <quixotedon> just my thought :)
[08:22] <hydrox24> quixotedon: It is telling you about the way in which you can use ubuntu "server" "netbook" and "desktop" edition(s) to further your business
[08:22] <popey> quixotedon: whats the problem you're trying to solve?
[08:22] <quixotedon> hydrox24: i see
[08:22] <zennez0009> how do i reset ubuntu hotkey settings to default?
[08:22] <hydrox24> quixotedon: Yeh look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwiFrN-fZTg
[08:22] <quixotedon> popey: check kezania's problem on wine please
[08:22] <hydrox24> zennez0009: try the keyboard settings
[08:22] <hydrox24> gtg
[08:23] <popey> quixotedon: I don't know wine well, sorry
[08:23] <zennez0009> thanks hydrox24
[08:23] <zennez0009> but it only resets the layout options
[08:23] <zennez0009> it doesnt reset the hotkeys

[08:56] <juniour> i wanna to use unti and cube and rotate desktop
[08:56] <phnewbie> juniour: you can use most of the compiz settings along with unity, some of them do have conflicts in which case you need to choose between the two
[08:56] <aBound> Krissed, This is the only directory I found for casper: /var/log/installer/casper.log
[08:56] <juniour> k
[08:59] <shisha42>  /server 77.71.14.254
[09:00] <Krissed> aBound thanks. Im having an issue with computer not booting after turning an installed Ubuntu into a ISO.. Basicly the ISO created and burned stops at Checking battery state (even on a desktop ). I figured it would be remastersys causing a problem (i install ubuntu and update it and stuff before running remastersys)
[09:01] <z3r0c007> relinux is safe to install on 11.10 ubuntu
[09:01] <aBound> Krissed, I had a few issues like that before it could be a variety of apps that may have caused the problem.
[09:02] <aBound> I remember removing my Byobu terminal and it killed my LightDM login with the "checking battery state".
[09:03] <chaudhary> linux emc2  knowledge ?
[09:04] <Krissed> aBound im using GDM because in lightDM i cant set the default session. I need it to be gnome fallback (unity isnt workable here)
[09:04] <shisha42> server 77.71.14.254
[09:04] <Krissed> aBound are you saying that killing lightDM might cause it to not work ?
[09:05] <aBound> Krissed, Understandable Unity should be fixed in 12.04.
[09:05] <crizzy> 'fixed'
[09:05] <Krissed> aBound preferbly just non-existing.
[09:05] <aBound> Krissed, I was saying a variety of problems can cause Ubuntu to go into a "Checking battery state".
[09:06] <z3r0c007> relinux is safe to install on 11.10 ubuntu
[09:06] <aBound> I had my nVidia driver go to a checking battery state and one time I removed my byobu terminal like before it killed LightDM and sent me to a text-mode kernel with checking battery state.
[09:06] <jmscomtech> er how come vlc stoped playing .mkv files?
[09:06] <Krissed> aBound i just dont get it.. I have ubuntu installed. installed a few things like likewise-open and GDM and gnome-fallback. I have it so it only have fallback option. It all works just perfect. Except after i run remastersys and make it into an iso and attempt to boot from it
[09:07] <aBound> z3r0c007, If it isn't in the official repositories we can't help much on that aspect.
[09:07] <aBound> z3r0c007, As it's not part of Ubuntu making it a problem for ReLinux users.
[09:07] <z3r0c007> ok thanks aBound
[09:08] <aBound> z3r0c007, No problem.
[09:08] <Krissed> aBound do you know any other programs that lets me turn an installed ubuntu into a ISO ?
[09:08] <zell0x> hi
[09:08] <z3r0c007> but its a customition of ubuntu
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, Ubuntu 11.10 can be quite unstable for some as Unity has given me some issues and this version in general can be a headache. As bluetooth doesn't even seem to work either.
[09:09] <varikonniemi> hello, i have a problem with a start script, could anyone see if something obviously is wrong with it: http://pastebin.com/TRydqeYT it launches the application, the program records video, but does not output anything. When launching manually with 'glc-capture spring' in terminal it works fine.
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, I would say use some other app for doing that but I can't say if one exist.
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, There is a alternative Ubuntu ISO which should allow you to customize your Ubuntu ISO.
[09:10] <Krissed> aBound agree but sadly its the ONLY version after 9.10 which works with likewise-open and having windows shares so i really dont have much of a choice
[09:10] <juniour> hi guys in ubuntu 10.10 when i rightclick on pannel i get some option but in 11.10 i cant gaet any thing

[09:11] <juniour> then how will i add gadgeds
[09:11] <juniour> tere
[09:11] <theadmin> juniour: They don't exist anymore, you can't add anything
[09:12] <juniour> y???
[09:12] <theadmin> juniour: Because support for Gnome2 has been dropped.
[09:12] <Krissed> juniour same thing i said when i saw unity.. ditch it..
[09:12] <theadmin> juniour: Try XFCE...
[09:12] <theadmin> !xfce | juniour
[09:12] <Krissed> you can install gnome-fallback
[09:12] <Krissed> that works.
[09:12] <juniour> but there is battery icon message icon sound etc
[09:12] <juniour> if they are there
[09:12] <chuck1310> xfcf rocks

[10:10] <azi> wireless problem. I can connect to my home wireless network through windows, but in ubuntu it says that the authentification failed (incorect password) what could be causing that?
[10:11] <bullgard4> azi: Ubuntu needs learning to accept your WLAN password.
[10:11] <azi> bullgard4: what do you mean
[10:12] <azi> bullgard4: wireless works fine in ubuntu just this network seems to be causing an issue
[10:12] <bullgard4> azi: Just what I wrote.
[10:12] <azi> bullgard4: learning what?
[10:13] <bullgard4> azi: You need to key in the passeord that your specific 'WLAN access point expects.
[10:14] <azi> duh. i don't seem to understand

[10:15] <azi> now it's clear. i wasn't sure if you were a troll at the begining
[10:15] <quixotedon> bullgard: maybe azi means 'duh' in his/her language :)
[10:16] <jrib> bullgard4: for future reference, "duh" means "obviously" (but it's usually a bit rude)
[10:16] <wadkar> I was trying out different color scheme for my terminal and now its ruined ! please, help me restore it back to what it was
[10:17] <wadkar> I cant work with these horrible colors !
[10:17] <jrib> wadkar: what did you do to try a different color scheme?
[10:17] <bullgard4> jrib: Thank you for explaining.
[10:18] <wadkar> jrib: I unchecked "Use colors from system theme" and then fiddled with Built-in schemes , and I think I also changed the color pallet available for terminal applications

[10:23] <Guest64509> bullgard4: pasted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/822391/
[10:23] <jrib> wadkar: can't you choose a built-in scsheme from the dropdown menu?
[10:24] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: nope, its just the text inside my vim editor (editing a PHP file now) and the literal strings are in bright pink
[10:24] <Amanda_> I'm having this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/865001 when trying to get my macbook working through ubuntu
[10:25] <wadkar> jrib: If I chose colors from system theme, the built-in scheme disappears, but i can still select color pallets though
[10:25] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, in Gnome Terminal you can edit your colorschemes, afterwards, you can save your settings and select them upon opening a new terminal window
[10:25] <wadkar> jrib: ohh thank god ! the color pallet default is 'tango' it seems
[10:25] <totalNoob> Hello all
[10:25] <jrib> wadkar: you can choose built-in scheme for the palette :)
[10:26] <totalNoob> I have a problem with sharing my internet connection for windows 7 and ubuntu as host, but no luck :'(
[10:26] <totalNoob> what should I do?
[10:26] <wadkar> jrib: yes, thats what I did, and looks like I have been using 'tango' from beginning, I only realized now that white-on-black custom scheme for text color with this color pallet is a horrible choice !
[10:26] <totalNoob> I'm using Xubuntu oneirick
[10:27] <Amanda_> totalnoob - look here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/865001
[10:27] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: yes, but I would rather not go into making choices about colors, too afraid to _fudgeUp_ things again
[10:28] <Amanda_> The workaround makes it so it doesn't cycle on and off all the time, but it doesn't appear to do dhcp afterwards.
[10:29] <wadkar> how do you get yourself used to a new color scheme/theme ? I am thinking of not looking at the computer screen for a day or two and then change the settings and try again after a day or two. Any choice/change I make strikes back at me with a horrible look
[10:30] <jrib> wadkar: only make changes you like :)
[10:30] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I understand. Aren't there any sane color themes that you can choose from?
[10:30] <wadkar> jrib: hehe, yeah, but any change I make look unsatisfying, only because I am too much used to the old theme
[10:31] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: You mean system themes? or particular gnome-terminal color scheme ?
[10:31] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I mean, prebuilt particular gnome-terminal color schemes.
[10:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: yes, I tried white-on-black (I prefer dark background) but it didn't please my eyes, but then, as I said, it might be because I am too much used to the old style (and now I don't like that one too :P)
[10:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, try white on blue, it's the most soothing combination. Heck, even WP51. (remember?) used that scheme.
[10:35] <totalNoob> are there any gui method for sharing internet connection on KDE? I connected via pppoeconf and using hub. I want to share internet connection for my windows 7 laptop. what should I do?
[10:35] <Mrokii> Hello. For some reason when I use Command+R in Bash, I can only find the last command with the search-term, but using up- and down-arrows terminates the search-mode and brings me back to the command-line. In other words: I can not look for earlier occurences of a search-term. Any explanation available for that?
[10:35] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: looks like I have to go all the way from gnome-terminal color scheme + color pallet + vim editor color scheme + my bash cutom color hacks (git customization etc.) and whatever else that I touched upon : just to get my work environment look beautiful !!
[10:35] <jrib> wadkar: here's what I use, maybe it will give you some ideas: http://i.imgur.com/0Dn2j.png
[10:35] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: white on blue ? I dont see that in the options
[10:36] <totalNoob> thank you Amanda_ but this is not my issue.

[10:36] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, strange, I have it, then again I have upgraded from 8.04 all the way to 11.10, so that might be included. I use LXTerminal myself, but I might have some sane configs that I can put up for download for you if I find them
[10:37] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Just a minute yet ...
[10:37] <Amanda_> You figure sharing an internet connection would be something ubuntu would do without any hassle. :(
[10:37] <jrib> !ics | Amanda_
[10:37] <wadkar> jrib: interesting, thats some nice colorful terminal ... I have a requirement of transparent background (for terminal) though, do you reckon it will screw up such colorful theme ?
[10:37] <Guest64509> i'm loged in and suddanly a black screan appears and after that i see the loginsceen again. 11: i'm using ubuntu 10.04. sugestion of theadmin: x crashes. does anyone find something about the problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/822366/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822370/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822371/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822372/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822373/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822391/
[10:38] <juniour> hi guys which jave is good gor 11.10
[10:38] <jrib> wadkar: I think that transparent terminals, while they may look pretty, just make things harder to read
[10:38] <Stereocaulon> jrib, I agree
[10:38] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10
[10:39] <totalNoob> junior I think, sun-java is good for ubuntu
[10:39] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I am on 11.04, thinking about upgrading for a long time, just too afraid to break the grub (have a fudged up partition scheme, had to get rid of swap partition so I can use the rest 300GBs)
[10:39] <wasanzy> hi
[10:39] <jrib> !java | juniour
[10:40] <wadkar> jrib: indeed, but I set the transparency level just enough to be able to read whats _behind_ the terminal window
[10:40] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, anyway, I'll start up my Gnome term to see if I am imagining things or if there is indeed such a color scheme available.
[10:40] <wadkar> jrib: which I find quite productive when working with external API docs, or working on SQLyog while modifying data by hand
[10:41] <Faris> Hi. I'm running a command that redirects its output to a file like this: command > file. but the file won't get updated in real time. how do I do that ,
[10:41] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: thanks, let me know
[10:41] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, what editor do you use in the terminal? If it's vi, I have a beautiful color scheme right here.
[10:41] <Faris> can I have it :)
[10:41] <tanath> can anyone help me with setting up a vpn? i'm following directions here https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/openvpn.html and need to know if i can use ip for hostname
[10:41] <jrib> wadkar: do what works for you; that workflow would be impossible for me.  It's much faster for me to just have the wind juxtaposed to my terminal
[10:42] <tanath> since there is no hostname
[10:42] <Stereocaulon> Faris, you mean the color theme? Sure why not.
[10:42] <Faris> yes :)
[10:42] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: vim it is ! and I am using elflord though I am not so happy with color for the literal strings (in PHP, BTW)
[10:42] <html> tanath,  is it a static ip?
[10:42] <tanath> html, yep
[10:42] <Faris> I use Darkbone, Jellybeans and Nature
[10:42] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, you are in for a treat then, just a moment...
[10:42] <lupzz> hi, how do I convince nautilus to open eps files using gv?
[10:43] <jrib> !defaultapp | lupzz
[10:43] <wadkar> Faris: three color scheme ? I thought you can chose one?
[10:43] <html> tanath,  did you lock it in , and you isp is not going to change it on you ?
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, gv is not on that list
[10:43] <Faris> Nah, depending on the language :)
[10:43] <tanath> html, actually, i'd like to be able to not have to use static ip, so i can access remotely...
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, gv something.eps works ..
[10:43] <jrib> lupzz: you can add to the list
[10:43] <tanath> html, html set in my router, so yes.
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, how?
[10:43] <tanath> oops
[10:44] <html> and your isp?y
[10:44] <tanath> html, shouldn't be relevant...?
[10:44] <jrib> lupzz: "show other applications" though it used to just let you navigate your filesystem and choose any binary...
[10:44] <wadkar> jrib: yep, I took the pains to get used to it, hated it in the beginning but found that content behind the terminal can be _quite interesting_ , *cough* , if you know what I mean :)
[10:44] <tanath> html, i have a static ip from isp, though it can change occasionally...
[10:45] <Guest64509> hello???
[10:45] <html> my isp  call mediacom  has a dyanmic ip system so i dont know how to say the same ip with in the week to 12 hours
[10:45] <lupzz> jrib, yes but that option is not there anymore..
[10:45] <html> tanath,
[10:45] <jrib> lupzz: is gv not listed when you click "show other applications"?
[10:45] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Is line number 703 really the last one?
[10:46] <Guest64509> yes
[10:46] <tanath> html, ?
[10:46] <Guest64509> i copied everything
[10:46] <lupzz> jrib, is not there
[10:46] <Guest64509> bullgard4: yes, i copied everything
[10:46] <Vivekananda> smone who can comment on my question??
[10:46] <tanath> html, oh, i see comment now
[10:46] <tanath> html, anyway, just trying to make sure i can put lan ip and use locally
[10:47] <jrib> lupzz: create a .desktop file and edit either defaults.list or mimeapps.list (I think it's now mimeapps.list) in ~/.local/share/applications/
[10:47] <tanath> html, unless you have a solution so i can use remotely too
[10:47] <html> what?
[10:47] <html> team veiwer
[10:47] <html> logmein
[10:48] <Myr> Anyone here have experience with installing Tomcat on Ubuntu?
[10:48] <html> i can show you if you like
[10:48] <KNUBBIG> Myr: yes
[10:48] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: please wait, I will be back
[10:48] <html>  what i tomcat?
[10:48]  * wadkar is away from the desk
[10:48] <html> tanath,
[10:48] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, here you go, just get the files at www.tschai.nl/.viminfo www.tschai.nl/.bashrc
[10:49] <Myr> KNUBBIG: familiar with "/usr/share/tomcat7/bin/catalina.sh: 110: uname: not found"
[10:49] <Faris> StereocaulonThanx !
[10:49] <tanath> html, team viewer may work... although i want to know how to use the built-in features i have available
[10:49] <KNUBBIG> Myr: no but it looks like the uname command is not found. What happens if you type uname in a fresh terminal?
[10:49] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, both files are invisible in Linux, because they are dotfiles.
[10:49] <Stereocaulon> Faris, np :-)
[10:50] <Faris> I can't see viminfo though
[10:50] <bullgard4> Guest64509: I noticed that at that boot-up process there was a hard disk error and your operating system tried to fix it. May be it was not successful. The line 703 is a relevant error message. It usually only appears it your ACPI was not all right. I think you should first test your hard disk if it is ok yet. If yes, restart your computer and see if the bug still appears. If yes, analyze...
[10:50] <bullgard4> ...again dmesg.
[10:50] <lupzz> jrib, .. is it this the only way=
[10:50] <lupzz> ?
[10:50] <Faris> Stereocaulon
[10:50] <Stereocaulon> Faris, don't download that one please...
[10:50] <html> tanath,  so what do you want to do
[10:50] <Faris> Stereocaulon: I can't see it at all
[10:50] <Myr> KNUBBIG: prints "linux"
[10:51] <KNUBBIG> Myr: wait I'll look in catalina.sh myself
[10:51] <Stereocaulon> Faris, that's good, because it contained some personal data :-/
[10:51] <Stereocaulon> Faris, no passwords or so, don't get excited ;-)
[10:52] <html> tanath,  ??
[10:52] <tanath> html, well, i was at the step where you run './pkitool hostname'. i can likely use the lan ip, but if i were trying to access from outside my lan that wouldn't work, and my device has no hostname, so...
[10:52] <Faris> Stereocaulon :)
[10:52] <Guest64509> how do i chek the hardisk and does it sayes which hardisk? ik have 80 GB inside, 300 GB and 1TB extern (al divided in partitions exept the 300)
[10:52] <KNUBBIG> Myr: mh line 110 doesn't say anything about uname at all ... could you pastebin your catalina.sh?
[10:53] <Stereocaulon> Faris, ah, I see, it's only readable by root, I'll fix that, just a sec
[10:53] <Myr> KNUBBIG: I guess, its nothing more then the standard though
[10:53] <Guest64509> bullgard4: how do i chek the hardisk and does it sayes which hardisk? ik have 80 GB inside, 300 GB and 1TB extern (al divided in partitions exept the 300)
[10:53] <hroi> hi
[10:53] <hroi> Im trying out the lockfile command
[10:54] <hroi> but it aint doing what I thought.
[10:54] <jrib> lupzz: only way I know
[10:54] <lupzz> jrib, ok.. is this a bug or a feature of the gnome 3.x ?
[10:55] <Myr> KNUBBIG: http://pastie.org/3281492
[10:55] <Stereocaulon> Faris, the .viminfo was not useful anyway, only contained last opened files and such, no config. My .vim file is empty, it gets the settings from a global /etc-setting...
[10:55] <jrib> lupzz: what would the bug be?
[10:55] <Faris> Stereocaulon So where's the vim theme then ? :p
[10:55] <lupzz> jrib, missing custom command in the open with dialog?
[10:55] <KNUBBIG> Myr: thanks, did you use apt-get to install tomcat?
[10:56] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Please use the System > Administration > »Disk Utility« program for that purpose.
[10:56] <Myr> No, I used the tar.gz from the website
[10:56] <Stereocaulon> Faris, the .bashrc file takes care of most of the coloring, but I'll look up where my Vim get it's color set from.
[10:56] <lupzz> jrib, I can't classify it as a feature request given the fact that this feature was right there in the previous version..
[10:56] <or4n9e> hi. may someone explain to me how I'd re-compile a certain ubuntu package? I.e. is it even possible. Essentially I need to append an additional configure flag to bluez
[10:56] <jrib> lupzz: my guess would be that it was replaced with the simpler "show other applications" intentionally.  But check launchpad and the gnome bugzilla I guess
[10:56] <jrib> !source | or4n9e
[10:56] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10
[10:57] <Myr> KNUBBIG: No, I grabbed the tar.gz from the website, I seem to need version 7
[10:57] <juniour> jre or jdk
[10:57] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10 ,jdk or jre
[10:57] <Myr> both
[10:57] <html> tanath,   so is that all for you , or theres more you want help with ?
[10:57] <Guest64509> bullgard4: interne harddisk: green with comment "some bad sectors"
[10:57] <or4n9e> jrib: thx
[10:57] <lupzz> jrib, but what rationale could be in removing the "add custom command" button?
[10:58] <jrib> or4n9e: I'd suggest incrementing the package version with the command (while appending a suffix like "~orange") and document your changes with the command « dch -i »
[10:58] <bullgard4> Guest64509: »Disk Utility« allows you to test all 3 hard disks and find out which one is damaged.
[10:58] <jrib> lupzz: I don't know, I didn't do it :P It's more straightforward I guess (I think it's a stupid change)
[10:58] <eutheria> other than thunderbird and evolution, can anyone suggest a reasonable email client that supports imaps, (it is for testing as i don't want a string of account on main email)
[10:58] <Stereocaulon> Faris, found it...I'll upload it shortly.
[10:58] <tanath> html, i'd like to know how to configure it when there's no hostname. not sure how to proceed in that case
[10:58] <KNUBBIG> Myr: I can't actually see any error, it might be that catalina.sh is ran by a user with no access to uname. If I were you, I'd remove the manually installed one and try 'apt-get install tomcat7'. Sorry :-/
[10:58] <or4n9e> jrib: ok
[10:58] <Faris> Stereocaulon THaank you: )
[10:58] <Guest64509> bullgard4: by 300 GB SMART not supported
[10:58] <Faris> Stereocaulon u use any plugins?
[10:58] <overclucker> juniour: you'll only need the jre unless you plan on doing java development
[10:59] <bullgard4> Guest64509: This message is probably an indication for your trouble. Replace this hard disk with a new one.
[10:59] <html> tanath,  that seems really high skill
[10:59] <Guest64509> bullgard4: 1 TB is okee
[10:59] <juniour> i want fro browser
[10:59] <Guest64509> no alternative than replacing?
[10:59] <tanath> html, well, i'm trying to set up my android phone, so i can see this becoming a fairly common issue for someone following that guide...
[10:59] <jdhfr> how to enable precise repository?
[11:00] <lupzz> jrib, OK
[11:00] <Stereocaulon> Faris, no I don't.
[11:00] <bullgard4> Guest64509: I do not understand the word "by" in your message "[11:58]	<Guest64509>	bullgard4: by 300 GB SMART not supported". Please say it in other words.
[11:00] <overclucker> juniour: then you want the jre
[11:00] <lupzz> no time to file a bug on this right now
[11:00] <Stereocaulon> Faris, here you are: www.tschai.nl/vimrc
[11:00] <lupzz> jrib, if someone else thinks that this should be solved file a bug on this too, I will vote it
[11:00] <Guest64509> bullgard4: i don't have mi\uch money - i'm a student
[11:00] <juniour> hi but i am installing jdk any problem
[11:01] <Stereocaulon> Faris, put it in /etc/vim for machine-wide settings.
[11:01] <html> tanath,  for ?   teamveiwer s a good alround app
[11:01] <juniour> it will also support browser k
[11:01] <html> tanath,  theres an app for that
[11:01] <Guest64509> bullgard4: by the externe hadrdisk with 300 GB is written that smart status is not supported
[11:02] <tanath> html, when using openvpn. phone has built-in vpn, and ubuntu has openvpn...
[11:02] <tanath> html, teamviewer does more than i might be looking for...
[11:02] <Faris> Stereocaulon danke
[11:02] <tanath> html, but thanks
[11:03] <Stereocaulon> Faris, I'm not German, in Dutch it would be: "bedankt"
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> should I see a wlan0 entry when I enter ifconfig
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> ?
[11:03] <Stereocaulon> Faris, but anyway, you are wellcome :-)
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> My Wi-fi card doesn't seem to work anymore
[11:03] <stianhj> Where can I get a list of recent changes? Installed a bunch of updates this morning and the system changes ae to æ everywhere (it's actually an a and an e, but it's displayed as æ)
[11:04] <or4n9e> jrib: ok, I now have the sources but how do I modify the build process now? I mean, my reasoning is to change/add a configure flag obviously not appended with the default ubuntu package
[11:04] <stianhj> So if I go to mediaelements.net, it's displayed as mediælements.net in my address bar..
[11:04] <bullgard4> Guest64509: "[12:01]	<Guest64509>	bullgard4: by the externe hadrdisk with 300 GB is written that smart status is not supported" <-- This means that this hard disk cannot be analyzed for hardware errors thorougly. You can use this hard disk only at greater risk. One risk could be a bug similar to that which you described at the outset.
[11:05] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, here you are: www.tschai.nl/vimrc
[11:06] <orated> Hello! I have a secondary HDD which doesn't contain linux OS but I find it to have linux swap partition - http://imagebin.org/196303 .

[11:07] <lotuspsychje> !de | tokam
[11:08] <orated> ?
[11:09] <bullgard4> ikonia: I suspected that too.
[11:09] <theadmin> tokam: Discussion of anything illegal is offtopic on this network.
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> synaptic is not longer installed in ocelot right?
[11:09] <theadmin> lotuspsychje: Not by default
[11:09] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: that wasn't exactly illegal, was it?
[11:09] <juniour_> hi
[11:09] <theadmin> lotuspsychje: I beleive it's still in the repos though
[11:10] <bullgard4> Guest64509: What do you mean by "it"? The external high-capacity hard disk?
[11:10] <lotuspsychje> theadmin: i think the !aptopncd still reccomends synaptic
[11:10] <juniour_> guys i disabled unity how to enable it
[11:10] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: He's asking something like "How to secure a Skype chat in such a way that you're safe from law" or something...
[11:10] <Myr> KNUBBIG: Thanks for the help, but its running now :P It was apparently a problem with not being able to execute a file as superuser (by the startup script)

[11:10] <theadmin> lotuspsychje: Well it still exists
[11:10] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: hehe he asked how to secure Skype chat so he could use it for judges :)
[11:11] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: Oh... that doesn't even make sense
[11:11] <KNUBBIG> Myr: great :)
[11:11] <lotuspsychje> theadmin: ok tnx
[11:11] <Guest64509> bullgard4: which does not support smart
[11:11] <juniour_> hi guys i dissabled mu unity how to enable  it
[11:11] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: He wanted to use Skype chats in court, that was it. Didn't remember the right word, sorry
[11:11] <jdhfr> how to view a package changelog??
[11:11] <LjL> juniour_: how did you disable it?
[11:11] <orated> overclucker: Umm I got only one linux installation, so the second linuxswap partition on sdc5 is not used, right?
[11:12] <jrib> jdhfr: apt-get changelog PACKAGE
[11:12] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: I see, thanks for clearing that up.
[11:12] <KNUBBIG> juniour_: try compizconfig-settings-manager and enable it there (might work)
[11:12] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: My german is far from perfect heh
[11:13] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: mine as well, even though I'm from Germany, so no problem ;p
[11:13] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Try '~$ sudo smartctl', -- '~$ badblocks -nsv -o /root/badblocks.txt /dev/sdb', -- 'sudo smartmonctl -a /dev/sdb',-- '$ sudo smartctl -i /dev/sdb' (mutatis mutandis).
[11:14] <Guest64509> bullgard4: just entering exactly this? I'm quite new to ubunt
[11:15] <juniour> hi guys i dissabled my unity how to enabel it
[11:15] <juniour> thats left doc is also gone
[11:15] <KNUBBIG> juniour: try compizconfig-settings-manager and enable it there (might work)
[11:16] <juniour> knubbing only terminal
[11:16] <juniour> there is nothing
[11:16] <juniour> else
[11:16] <KNUBBIG> juniour: wait a sec
[11:17] <juniour> compiz --replace not working
[11:17] <overclucker> orated: you can use more than 1 swap partition at once. it would be a good idea to check /etc/fstab to make sure /dev/sdc5 doesn't mount as swap if you are planning to remove it.
[11:17] <orated> overclucker: But then why blkid says two swap - http://paste.ubuntu.com/822416/ ?
[11:17] <xsl> Morning all, how can i display some sort of MOTD to users that login in gnome or xfce.
[11:17] <orated> Yes
[11:17] <juniour> how can i open compiz via terminal
[11:17] <KNUBBIG> juniour: tried unity --reset ?
[11:18] <juniour> k
[11:18] <juniour> no
[11:18] <bullgard4> Guest64509: No. I said:  "(mutatis mutandis)".
[11:18] <bullgard4> Guest64509: afk
[11:18] <juniour> hi
[11:19] <Guest64509> bullgard4: what does ""(mutatis mutandis)" mean?
[11:19] <juniour> knubbing thanks worked
[11:19] <KNUBBIG> juniour: np, glad to hear
[11:19] <orated> overclucker: Ok, I will remove it from fstab and delete it. blkid says sdc5 and sdd6 are swap. But only sdd is the partition with linux OS. I don't understand how there exists two swap partitions
[11:20] <overclucker> orated: ubuntu installer finds all swap and adds the mto the fstab.
[11:20] <jdhfr> is it possible to install libreoffice?
[11:22] <juniour_> knbbu i can use rotate cube and unity
[11:22] <juniour_> together
[11:22] <juniour_> hi
[11:23] <KNUBBIG> juniour: it is somehow possible but it's very inconvenient imo, one sec
[11:23] <orated> overclucker: And what are activate/deactivate swap options for in Gparted?
[11:24] <Myr> Guest64509: "After that which has to be changed, has been changed"
[11:24] <juniour_> knubbig i waan to use these 3d
[11:24] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: Bedankt ! let me look into how I can merge them with mine, BTW exposing .viminfo isn't a good idea :P
[11:24] <juniour_> rotate cube
[11:24] <overclucker> orated: 'sudo swapoff /dev/sdc5' in console
[11:24] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, so I 've noticed, that's why I deleted it...
[11:25] <jdhfr> is it possible to install libreoffice?
[11:25] <Guest64509> Myr: i gues what exactly i have to change i have to figure out on my own
[11:25] <grade> ciao
[11:25] <Stereocaulon> jdhfr, yes, just sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[11:25] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: going by the IRC logs, it wasn't available anyways. What is Midnight Commander ?
[11:25] <juniour_> thats y i like ubuntu 10.10

[11:25] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Midnight Commander is a substitute for the Well Known DOS program Norton Commander.
[11:26] <juniour_> knubbig i think 10.10 is better than 11..10
[11:26] <jdhfr> that one is old like mammoth t..d, i need a real one
[11:26] <juniour_> ya
[11:26] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, the Norton before it was taken over by the bumbling company called Symantec. Norton had great products before the takeover.
[11:26] <Myr> Guest64509: Try the command he gave you (without the part with parentesis)
[11:27] <orated> overclucker: Got it. Thanks
[11:27] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: ohh yes, I remember using Norton Ghost , it was something like taking snapshot of your HDD/OS and putting it back if you mess up things. Isn't Norton Antivirus one of the famous antivirus on windows?
[11:28] <Stereocaulon> !mc | wadkar
[11:28] <jdhfr> infamous, that is
[11:28] <overclucker> !info mc
[11:28] <Guest64509> Myr: okee, i wil \l try that
[11:28] <KNUBBIG> Norton isn't exactly my favourite :p
[11:29] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Norton after the takeover is only Norton in name. The quality went way overboard since then
[11:29] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: overclucker : thanks, I think I will find it useful for my remote connections
[11:30] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, do you like my .bashrc colourtheme? Just make a backup of your own .bashrc and then copy mine over the old one...
[11:31] <KNUBBIG> Stereocaulon: do you have a screenshot?
[11:31] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: hmm, BTW your vimrc doesn't contain much stuff? I think I am looking at wrong vimrc , I need to URL for your /etc/vim/vimrc.local
[11:31] <phix> :D
[11:32] <zennez0009> hello
[11:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: nope, going through the vimrc first, can't replace my .bashrc , has custom git commands and fancy bash prompts , which I depend heavily on, merging is the way to go
[11:32] <zennez0009> im juz wondering how can i remove programs folders and files after i uninstall them
[11:32] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, no, there is no vimrc.local on my box.
[11:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: unless I open a new terminal with env reset and source your bashrc, and I cant remember the magic incantation for that
[11:32] <zennez0009> files and folders like .warzone2100
[11:33] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: is this URL correct : http://www.tschai.nl/vimrc ?
[11:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, sourcing is easy, just use . <the file to source>
[11:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, yes it *is* a small file.
[11:33] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: might conflict with my old .bashrc exports/stuff
[11:34] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, in that case, don't use it. You are free to do so, but at your own risk of course.
[11:34] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I am intrigued ! Looks like your .bashrc takes care of most of the stuff
[11:34] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, yes, I told you it was a good setup ;-)
[11:34] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: just give me some time, I will get back to you in a moment
[11:34]  * wadkar is reading Stereocaulon 's bashrc
[11:36] <Guest64509> now somting very strang is happening. gedit just disapears after  having itb open a time
[11:37] <Stereocaulon> I have to reset my IRC term, brb
[11:39] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[11:39] <wone2340vnw> why i cant access other irc servers other than this? it takes ages to connect. why?
[11:39] <Ben64> wone2340vnw: /server <other irc server>
[11:40] <wone2340vnw> Ben64, i know, but it takes ages and never connects
[11:40] <Ben64> try another server then
[11:40] <rzec> I have a directory that looks like this : drwxr-x--- 6 gitolite gitolite 4096 2012-01-30 03:33 repositories : and the user I am currently logged in as is part of the gitolite group however when I try to cd into that directory, I get permission denied, what would I get that?
[11:40] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I have almost all of your .bashrc stuff, here's a diff between your's and mine : http://pastie.org/3281666
[11:41] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: Perhaps your ~/.dircolors has the actual settings ? BTW a screenshot would be interesting to look at
[11:41] <wone2340vnw> Ben64, i tried all undernet servers and any of them work
[11:42] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, what kind of files are you working on? I mainly hack some bash/ sed/ awk scripts, not much else
[11:42] <rzec> seems rebooting fixed my issue
[11:42] <incogitatus> hihi
[11:43] <rzec> anyway to fixed that issue without reboot?
[11:43] <mrAZz> i have problem playing .mov file with dvvideo/pcm_s24le, it is all choppy in vlc, and noisy in mplayer. i think i am micssing some codec.
[11:43] <incogitatus> Is this a place I can get a little help with ubuntu, or is there a better channel?
[11:44] <Ben64> incogitatus: this is the perfect channel for ubuntu support
[11:44] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I do lot of stuff, git + vim + php/apache these days with the usual mix of bash + sed + awk + bit of perl/python hacking
[11:45] <akpk> My WLAN,Bluetooth....etc r nor working....How to check rfkill ??
[11:45] <incogitatus> cool then, I guess I'll just ask.  I'm kind of an ubuntu newbie, so forgive my ignorance please...
[11:46] <incogitatus> I'm trying to resinstall Software-center via terminal, and it's coming ip with an error message saying, " Package 'software-center' has no installation candidate"

[11:51] <zennez0009> hello. why there are still programs folder in home after i uninstall them
[11:51] <LjL> zennez0009: stuff in /home never gets removed on uninstall
[11:51] <zennez0009> thanks ljl
[11:51] <LjL> zennez0009: it's configuration data that you might want to keep, so it stays
[11:51] <html> how do i get my mic to work on my hd camera?
[11:51] <incogitatus> LjL, I can try another package to see, just a sec.
[11:51] <zennez0009> theres no batch removal app?
[11:52] <LjL> zennez0009: the packaging system has no way of knowing what stuff in /home belongs to a given application
[11:52] <incogitatus> LjL: suggest software?
[11:53] <zennez0009> ok. it will juz remain and keep stacking up i guess
[11:53] <zennez0009> unless i manually delete them one by one
[11:53] <zennez0009> it seems the gnome application menu have all the uninstalled program links
[11:54] <zennez0009> they are broken
[11:54] <zennez0009> manually delete them as well?
[11:54] <LjL> incogitatus: dunno, synaptic?
[11:55] <incogitatus> in the terminal, I type "sudo install synaptic" ?

[11:59] <incogitatus> thx ben :) just a sec
[12:00] <LjL> incogitatus: please paste it into http://paste.ubuntu.com/ not in the channel, so i can modify it
[12:00] <Ben64> Saiyans007: find it in the menu, right click, add this launcher to desktop
[12:00] <incogitatus> like this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/822443/
[12:01] <LjL> incogitatus: yes. err, you're seriously on Dapper?
[12:01] <Ben64> dapper :|

[12:02] <LjL> Saiyans007: i told you, /join #channel
[12:02] <incogitatus> well, I dunno.  I didn't install it on this computer ...
[12:02] <incogitatus> lemme find out :P
[12:02] <kalgecin> Saiyans007, Server -> join a channel
[12:02] <LjL> incogitatus: Dapper is unsupported by now, and its repositories are gone. that's why you can't install packages.
[12:02] <Ben64> incogitatus: dapper stopped being updated on July 14th, 2009
[12:03] <newcode> hi, I just setup ubuntu on a virtual machine on my mac but for some reason I can't access my web server fomr my mac browser - any clue?
[12:03] <incogitatus> ubuntu 11.10
[12:03] <incogitatus> system info
[12:03] <LjL> incogitatus: uhm then i have no clue why you have the Dapper repos in sources.list
[12:03] <Ben64> incogitatus: what happens if you type "lsb_release -r"
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> incogitatus  to delete the repos, open Synaptic and click Settings - Repositories
[12:04] <LjL> incogitatus: try replacing your current sources.list with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/822448/
[12:05] <incogitatus> Release is 11.10
[12:05] <gulzar> which is that app to set and configure sound? It shows many horizontal bars to configure sound..
[12:05] <MonkeyDust> gulzar  open a terminal and type alsamixer
[12:05] <incogitatus> I can't access synaptic... either it's not installed, or I'm dumb.
[12:06] <dr_willis> its not instaleld by default i belive incogitatus
[12:07] <Ben64> incogitatus: just replace the sources.list with what LjL said. Use "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" to open the file
[12:07] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: no.. not that.. the one I am talking abt is GUI and shows many-many options to configure sound.. My speakes are not giving good sound so want toadjust settings
[12:07] <incogitatus> okay, I pasted, but the file is read only
[12:07] <gulzar> incogitatus: not installed...
[12:07] <gulzar> incogitatus: sudo apt-get install synaptic
[12:07] <LjL> incogitatus: if you open it with "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" as told, it won't be read-only
[12:07] <incogitatus> I guess there's some way to become administrator for the computer?
[12:07] <LjL> gulzar: that won't work.
[12:07] <incogitatus> oooh ok
[12:07] <gulzar> LjL: why?
[12:08] <gulzar> LjL: got it......
[12:08] <Ben64> gulzar: his apt sources are from 2006
[12:08] <MonkeyDust> incogitatus  you need sudo or gksudo for everything outside /home
[12:08] <LjL> gulzar: scroll up, i just had him try it. he's got Dapper repositories in his sources.list, how can he install software?
[12:08] <gulzar> Ben64: Oh!
[12:08] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: here's my typical screen look : http://imgur.com/ZW7KZ
[12:08] <incogitatus> "(gksudo:23059): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap","
[12:08] <LjL> incogitatus: if gedit starts up anyway, ignore that
[12:08] <gulzar> LjL: I just joined now.. but his matter is serious
[12:08] <incogitatus> okay, so I have  bunch of answers :) you guys are awesome, but now I'm not sure which I should choose from :D
[12:09] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: anything?
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> gulzar  an error message could be helpful
[12:09] <LjL> incogitatus: i suggest you try the ones that have a chance of working ;)
[12:09] <incogitatus> heh dankschoen
[12:10] <dr_willis> incogitatus:  read them all and learn what you are doing. just dont do thigs by rote :)
[12:10] <incogitatus> heh, I'm working on that willis. :)
[12:10] <incogitatus> rote isn't always  bad method
[12:11] <dr_willis> yes it can be.
[12:11] <dr_willis> learning the funamentals is never a bad thing.
[12:11] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: no error message.. I have alsamixer-gui but it is basic.. I want more bigger GUI . I used it but don't know what it is called as.
[12:11] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[12:11] <Vodokotlic> hi, i have a problem, cannot click on adobe flash player settings http://oi44.tinypic.com/246m51e.jpg
[12:11] <sattu94> Hi, does the 64-bit server cd load a 32bit kernel or a 64 bit one to carry out the installation?
[12:11] <incogitatus> let's see, so it seems I need to edit the sources.list to match the current version but I cannot open it any other way than "read only"
[12:12] <LjL> incogitatus: try with "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
[12:12] <Ben64> ew nano :P
[12:12] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: OK just tell me which GUI are available fro ubuntu... in default and others.. I will search from them

[12:15] <monny> why i cant launch counter strike 1.6 on unbutu
[12:15] <gulzar> sattu94: any other

[12:18] <Saiyans007> suppose i want to join #judy for example. How will i know whic network it is on and how will i join it?
[12:18] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  every irc network could have its own #judy
[12:18] <Gerben> Hello. Since 1 week I switched from a (cheap/slow) laptop to using a 27" iMac (little more power) using first nomachine NX, and now thinlinc. Only feature I need now is support for dual monitor. Does anyone know some solution where I can use multiple monitors?
[12:18] <LjL> Saiyans007: /server networkserver      and then    /join #judy. but you must know the network.
[12:18] <monny> my dog shit on my keybord how to fix it
[12:19] <Saiyans007> Thanks LjL
[12:19] <xsl> dr_willis: i need it to show my users.
[12:19] <dr_willis> Gerben:  can you plug in 2 monitors into the box?
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> Gerben  is it an iMac with ubuntu?
[12:19] <Gerben> MonkeyDust, yes
[12:19] <Gerben> forget to tell
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> hey there, my ubuntu install. i belive i can run it from inside windows ?
[12:20] <Gerben> I tried Mac OS for 1 week, but I prefer Ubuntu so I installed that
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> i have seen it intergrated into windows
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> how would i go about doing so ?
[12:20] <dr_willis> JBobAWAY:  you mean use 'wubi' ?
[12:20] <dr_willis> !wubi
[12:20] <MonkeyDust> wubi :(
[12:20] <dr_willis> Most people in here HATE wubi
[12:20] <dr_willis> and dont reccomend it
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> oh i see
[12:20] <Gerben> dr_willis, plug in 2 monitors into the box. Do you mean my client machine or the server?
[12:21] <Ben64> i don't recommend wubi
[12:21] <JBobAWAY> but thanks for the lead
[12:21] <dr_willis> Gerben:  you are a bit vague in what you want and what you are doing..
[12:21] <Saiyans007> we are using anjuta IDE at school so i download it from the software centre...my problem is when i press the build button nothing works let alone execute the program
[12:22] <juniour> hey my graphic is 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
[12:22] <juniour> it will be supporte in ubuntu 11.10
[12:22] <Gerben> dr_willis, At the Office I have an Imac running Ubuntu 11.10. At home I have a Dell Laptop with an external monitor attached. I'd like to have the ability to use both the laptop monitor and the external monitor at home.
[12:22] <Gerben> In some kind of X session/terminal to the iMac running Ubuntu at the office
[12:22] <incogitatus> thanks for the help, but sudo install still isn't working.  I saved (write out) the file sources.list as per : http://paste.ubuntu.com/822448/, and the result still shows: http://imagebin.org/196307
[12:22] <dr_willis> Gerben:  ive used multi monitors in linux with ati, intel, and nvidia gfx chipsets.
[12:23] <Gerben> dr_willis, yes, that is not the issue. The issue is that I need some terminal software that supports multiple monitors.
[12:23] <juniour> can ay one will tell my graphic card is supporte in ubuntu 101.10
[12:23] <mydogsnameisrudy> function key on dell laptop f8 i think
[12:23] <juniour> sr 11.10
[12:24] <Ben64> incogitatus: try "sudo apt-get update" first
[12:24] <Gerben> that guy you just kicked has now joined #debian
[12:24] <dr_willis> Gerben:  as far ive noticved with vnc you can tell it the res to use for its output and have it streatch across both monitors. I tend to just fullscreen it to one monitor
[12:24] <hroi> hi anyone have experience with the lockfile command?
[12:24] <Gerben> dr_willis, yes... I know. But that way I'll have black bars on the screen with the higher resolution
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> ! info lockfile
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> !info lockfile
[12:25] <incogitatus> Ben- updating (apparently).... hasn't done this in a while ;)
[12:25] <hroi> I have created a lockfile test.lock   , yet I can edit the "test" file from another shell...
[12:25] <juniour> hi i wanna to install addition al drivers
[12:25] <hroi> so, another process is able to edit a locked file
[12:25] <hroi> ?
[12:26] <incogitatus> Whoa.  I think it's actually working :)
[12:26] <MonkeyDust> !yay| incogitatus
[12:26] <JBobAWAY> hey another question
[12:27] <Ben64> MonkeyDust: ha, didn't know that one existed
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> i want to use ubuntu like a console
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> not desktop mode

[12:27] <JBobAWAY> oh choice
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> where would i find that ?
[12:27] <incogitatus> so, just to make sure, the problem was the sources.list was for a different version of ubuntu?
[12:28] <Ben64> incogitatus: yep
[12:28] <cillo564> I have mobile broadband usb stick , how do I set it via eth0

[12:29] <incogitatus> Ljl: I might've changed it when trying to use aircrack or something ... copying and pasting, blah blah.  I haven't programmed computers since 1985.
[12:29] <Ben64> fasad: This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for i686-linux-gnu-thread-multi-64int
[12:29] <fasad> MonkeyDust: oh. thanx.

[12:32] <Guest64509> bullgard4: what do i have to change and how can i find out how i have to change it?
[12:32] <dr_willis> pikpik:  try jwm
[12:33] <incogiatus> alright guys, software center is installed and working, updates are working.  You guys are amazing :)
[12:33] <pikpik> dr_willis: I'm using that.
[12:33] <dr_willis> pikpik:  if theres any lighter ive not noticed them.
[12:33] <pikpik> dr_willis: Cool. Thanks.
[12:33] <dr_willis> pikpik:  unless you try some ultra-no-feature wm's
[12:33] <ikonia> dr_willis: what as the legacy default x11 that used to get launched from xdm
[12:33] <incogiatus> Thanks for the help!
[12:33] <dr_willis> jwm is smaller then twm i belive.
[12:33] <DrDank> Wow, first time linux user.. This takes some major getting use too.. lol
[12:33] <ikonia> can't remember it's name
[12:33] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[12:33] <dr_willis> of course theres download size, then mem used size :)
[12:33] <dr_willis> !info twm
[12:33] <ikonia> jdhfr: what is not real about what you have installed
[12:34] <dr_willis> !info jwm
[12:34] <cillo564> MonkeyDust, my problem is that id like to use internet in mac mini so i put ethernet cable between mac mini and this ubuntu LTS where is the mobile broadband usb stick
[12:34] <jdhfr> ikonia: it's very archaic
[12:34] <ikonia> jdhfr: so your real question is "I want a newer version"
[12:34] <dr_willis> for size/featureset/  for a minimal wm.. jwm is hard to beat.
[12:34] <pikpik> dr_willis: Gotcha. Thanks. :)
[12:34] <jdhfr> ikonia: real one is in precise but i cannot update without maiming my system
[12:34] <dr_willis> other minimal wms often have features missign that people want... like a easy to get to launcher menu.
[12:34] <bullgard4> Guest64509: The most important change which you have to make in the commands that I gave you, is to adapt to the partition number of your particular setup.
[12:35] <html> is ubuntu good with sound cards?
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: please stop calling it "real" there is nothing unofficial about it
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: you just want a newer version ?
[12:35] <pikpik> dr_willis: Yeah, I'm happy with something minimal.
[12:35] <jdhfr> ikonia: yes 2.5 version
[12:35] <html> sound cards | html
[12:35] <ikonia> html: no more/less than any other linux distribution
[12:35] <dr_willis> pikpik:  i tend to use jwm or icewm for my vnc sessions.
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: you'll need to hunt for a PPA or build your own, however be aware of the risks with that
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: or wait for 12.04 to be released and upgrade
[12:36] <pikpik> dr_willis: I get the feeling that icewm is a little glitzier?
[12:36] <jdhfr> risks from text editor? i don't understand
[12:36] <dr_willis> pikpik:  its a bit more customizeable. but its a bit on the old-skool side. some features in it dont work like they should any more
[12:36] <ikonia> jdhfr: no, risks from using a PPA or building your own
[12:37] <pikpik> dr_willis: Oh, I see. :(
[12:37] <Gami> I've had a problem with Ubuntu 11.10 regarding my internet speed. I have an ethernet cable that goes to a router that goes to a modem. Wireless internet works great on my iPhone and iPad and I have no speed issues when I use Windows 7. Sometimes internet will be very slow for extended periods of times on Ubuntu, or sometimes not even work. Any idea where to start? I googled a lot and tried a few solutions a while ago, but never managed to fi
[12:37] <Gami> x the problem.
[12:37] <Guest64509> bullgard4: how can i find the partition number i need?
[12:37] <pikpik> dr_willis: Well, cool. I guess I'll be happy with JWM. :)
[12:37] <zennez0009> guyz. how can i get tomboys note "create new note" hotkey to work!
[12:38] <zennez0009> : (
[12:38] <dr_willis> pikpik:  you might want to check out what the tinycorelinux guys are using and how they have jwm themed.  looks very nice for a minimal desktop
[12:38] <zennez0009> im so sad it doesnt

[12:38] <CaptainQuirk> Hi, I cannot activate my wifi card with my hardware button on my laptop
[12:38] <html> html | sound cards
[12:39] <CoolCoder> I have 2 php installed on my Ubuntu. one is lampp and other. i am using lampp now. when I try to install imagick, It says "Class 'imagick' not found " But it shows 'imagick'. where can i find the DLL? why its not enabling. is it because of 2 apache configuration?
[12:39] <ikonia> html: you've already done that and it didn't work
[12:39] <cillo564> does someone has answer to my question MonkeyDust seems to be afk
[12:39] <ikonia> html: why would doing it again make it start working ?
[12:39] <html> !html | sound cards
[12:39] <CaptainQuirk> how can I know what's wrong ?
[12:39] <CaptainQuirk> hardware problem, driver issue ?
[12:40] <bullgard4> Guest64509: The most intuitive way is look them up in the GParted program. Alternatives: '~$ sudo fdisk -l', '~$ df -h'.
[12:40] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: you should provide details so someone can try to help you. wireless chipset, laptop model, etc
[12:41] <CaptainQuirk> hp pavillon g6, ubuntu 10.04, realtek wireless controller
[12:41] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, when I do ifconfig, I don't have any wlan section
[12:41] <Ben64> well that is a problem... which realtek chip
[12:43] <CaptainQuirk> don't remember
[12:43] <Guest64509> bullgard4: okee, i will try it
[12:43] <Gami> anyone?
[12:43] <bullgard4> Guest64509: r
[12:44] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: you can probably check from "lspci | grep -i rtl"
[12:44] <CaptainQuirk> well, I don't have anything else than an ethernet controller
[12:45] <Ben64> lspci will show it even if it doesn't show up under ifconfig
[12:45] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, I have Three entries with lspci | grep Realtek
[12:45] <quixotedon> all: the notification just pops up and says the system is running out of space (1.1 GB left), any suggestion to clear some space?
[12:45] <CaptainQuirk> Network controller, Ethernet controller and something called Class ff00
[12:46] <CaptainQuirk> weird
[12:46] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: try "rtl" instead of "Realtek"
[12:47] <CaptainQuirk> only thing i get with lspci | grep "RTL" is the ethernet controller
[12:48] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: have you seen this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1831214
[12:49] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I would not call that hideous. I would disable transparencies though
[12:49] <mkjackson1> Hey folks, google's no help
[12:50] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, looks like a post I followed to add patches : http://admaris.com/wp/blog/2011/07/03/ubuntu-on-hp-g6-laptop-tales-from-the-grave/
[12:50] <mkjackson1> trying to fix my audio but when I go to sudo apt-get install --reinstall libasound2 I get an error
[12:50] <CaptainQuirk> I applied all the patches, recompiled but nothing has changed
[12:50] <mkjackson1> E: Internal Error, No file name for libasound2
[12:50] <mkjackson1> none of the threads seem to resolve this symptom

[12:59] <juniour> hi guys which is the best web cam software
[13:00] <auronandace> juniour: try cheese (avoid asking for "best")
[13:00] <yjaradin> or Camorama
[13:00] <dr_willis> totally depens on your needs as to whats best for you
[13:01] <auronandace> quixotedon: if you have multiple kernels installed you could uninstall the oldest ones
[13:01] <dr_willis> I like 'webcamstudio' --> http://www.ws4gl.org/  :)

[13:07] <Stereocaulon> sorry^
[13:08] <jdhfr> does anyone knows if kde has irc channel for users?
[13:08] <nwp> anyone got any idea of the latest driver support situation for new iMacs?
[13:08] <nwp> are video drivers working properly, for example?
[13:08] <Pici> jdhfr: Try #kde to start... or #kubuntu if thats what you're using.
[13:09] <quixotedon> nwp: out of topic
[13:09] <nwp> quixotedon: srsly?
[13:10] <nwp> quixotedon: where do I find that then?
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> nwp: they will be part of the default install if they use intel GPUs
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> nwp: or use the driver install app if you use nvida or ati gpu
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> nwp: i suggest you use a liveCD or usb and simply trial the OS
[13:11] <nwp> ActionParsnip: really the question is "can they be made to work reliably?" - I know the theory, and in theory theory is the same as practice, but in practice... let's just say I have experienced problems
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> nwp: they can with good settings. i can't personally tell you more as I'm smart and don't buy apple rubbish
[13:13] <bullgard4> '~$ synclient -m 100; Can' access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled? Failed to connect to X Server.' What does »SHM« stand for?
[13:13] <angelete2> hi
[13:13] <nwp> ActionParsnip: ha. actually they're very nice machines to use, when the driver support is there. But I'm sure that really is getting OT
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> nwp: its overpriced for what it is, you can get the same grunt for half the price with a regular pc
[13:13] <Kaellan> annyone here got experience with apache server in ubuntu and may lend me a hand get it started for me ? :)
[13:13] <angelete2> i have one server virtualized with 2 network adapters: eth0:212.183.206.1626, eth1:192.168.1.12
[13:14] <angelete2> my default gateway is 0.1
[13:14] <nwp> bullgard4: shm = shared memory
[13:14] <angelete2> i've connected another device to 1.X network, using 1.12 as default gateway
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> nwp: try oneiric in liveUSB etc, you can even enable the proprietary driver if available
[13:14] <angelete2> i can ping 1.12, but can't access internet
[13:14] <angelete2> any help, please?
[13:15] <nwp> ActionParsnip: ok, worth a go. at least if it works that way, it will definitely work on a proper install. Can't be so sure if it doesn't, but it's a start
[13:15] <bullgard4> nwp: Thank you for your help.
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: if you run:   echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tell /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null        does the web work ok?
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> s/tell/tee
[13:15] <nwp> bullgard4: sorry I can't actually help you with the problem...
[13:16] <angelete2> where should i execute it?
[13:16] <btaylor927> I'm using an Atheros AR242x wifi adaptor in 11.10 64 bit and the connectivity is very spotty compared to windows. It maintains a connection but some pages won't load first time and getting msn to connect in empathy is a real chore. Are there issues with this chip in ubuntu?
[13:16] <bullgard4> nwp: Right. I will do some more snooping. I suspect a bug.
[13:17] <dr_willis> bullgard4:  i was thinkign shmconfig was a xorg.conf file setting. or was at one time. theres been a lot of changes to the touchpad synaptic drivers in the last few releases
[13:18] <bullgard4> dr_willis: Thank you for your information. (Yes, I never had this error in old Ubuntu releases.)
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: try disabling ipv6 (assuming you don't use it), with the boot option:  ipv6.disable=1
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: in a terminal, remember to correct my typo too
[13:19] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: now i can't even ping to 1.12!
[13:20] <btaylor927> I just add that to grub conf, right ActionParsnip?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: that changes your DNS servers so wouldn't affect that if you are pinging by IP
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: no, you NEVER change grub.conf
[13:20] <neronin> Im going crazy here, i cant get my ftp server to work properly, i have tried vsftpd, proftpd and pureftpd. I can set them up as far as i can see but when i try to log in (from a remote ip) i can not authenticate, the user name gets accepted but not the password. Anyone recognize this?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: you add it in /etc/defaul/grub    in the quotes with:  quiet splash    then run:  sudo update-grub
[13:21] <phlegx> Hi! A question. Why my Ubuntu make disk checks for errors on every boot?
[13:21] <angelete2> ok, already ping (my fault, i was pinging to 191.168....)
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> phlegx: unhealthy disk, try a better check in liveCD
[13:21] <dr_willis> phlegx:  improper shutdown, perhaps a bug/date set wrong.  failing hd.
[13:21] <angelete2> ping www.google.es can resolve name, but cannot ping it
[13:22] <Find> -Ping- angelete2 : 0.267 second/s
[13:22] <angelete2> i have ip_forward enabled
[13:23] <Pici> neronin: Are you sure that you're actually hitting your ftp server when you try to login remotely? Do you see your attempt in your logs?
[13:24] <neronin> Pici:  yes i do
[13:24] <neronin> I see myself as an not yet authenticated user
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: the resolv.conf is the dns servers of the system, so if yu were pinging by name it would make sense, but you were pinging by IP
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: can you ping 8.8.8.8?
[13:25] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: no, i can't (i can from .0.136 server, but no from the other device)
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: is the server acting as a router?
[13:26] <angelete2> i'm trying to do this
[13:26] <angelete2> (sorry, i haven't explained myself correctly)
[13:26] <phlegx> Thx, for the answer. The shutdown works perfectly. I have disk encryption, can this be the problem?
[13:27] <neronin> Pici:  and by the way, the users i have problems with are virtual users, i can log in with my real user
[13:27] <Pici> neronin: Ah.  I'm not really familiar with that bit of using vsftpd. I've only used real user accounts.
[13:28] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: what else should i do in order to connect .1.X devices to inernet?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> neronin: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/settingup-an-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-with-proftpd.html
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: do they have the correct default gateway set?
[13:28] <Guest91918> hey guys
[13:29] <angelete2> .1.11 has .1.12 as gateway,  the server has .0.1 as gateway and .1.12 as eth1 (no gateway stablished)
[13:29] <xzil0> i got a question about vstpd. i can connect to my ftp server with real user name. The problem is that i cant delete or upload any file to /var/www .
[13:29] <xzil0> vsftpd*
[13:29] <Guest91918> i have problem here when i m trying to login through shell all i get is login is incorrect and i m typing the right pass
[13:30] <Guest91918> i use ubuntu 11.10
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Guest91918: do you have a full partition for / or for /home (if it is seperate)?
[13:30] <jwtiyar> can someone tell where is Source.list file?
[13:30] <maxximus> would ubuntu 10.14 "know" why my pc hangs from time to time?
[13:30] <Guest91918> full
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: /etc/apt/sources.list  if you mean the apt list file..
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Guest91918: that's why. Press CTRL+ALT+F1 and run:  sudo apt-get clean    also uninstall unused kernels to free space
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> maxximus: how do you mean?
[13:31] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip,THANK U, I WANT TO DELETE 12.04 CODE NAME BECUASE AFTER EVERY UPDATE SHOWS PARTIAL UPGRADE
[13:32] <Guest91918> ok thnx
[13:32] <maxximus> actionparsnip... like a log or event viewer? hehe
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: why in caps?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: then ask in #ubuntu+1   messing with sources.list is not how you upgrade
[13:33] <Guest91918> ActionParsnip: login incorrect again everytime
[13:33] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip, sorry ,

[13:34] <joel> This is the default web page for this server.

[13:34] <Guest13138> How do I do that?
[13:34] <xzil0> overclucker: ill try that out :)
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Guest13138: stop the service and it won't be contactable
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: how
[13:35] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip, i think after i added an oppositroy to source
[13:35]  * jdhfr thinks why Guest13138 is in charge of server if he has to ask such questions
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: I don
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: I dont even know what service is running
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> maxximus: there are logs in /var/log  or you can use system-log-viewer
[13:36] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: VLC-Share installed it for me and then I removed VLC-Share but it stayed
[13:36] <maxximus> thanks ActionParsnip
[13:36] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: any other suggestion?
[13:36] <subb1> hi all. I have an issue with  the vi editor in lucid
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: i'd ask in ##networking too, they may be able to point the breakdown out
[13:37] <wolfric> i did apt-get source nscd, and i got this "Picking 'eglibc' as source package instead of 'nscd'".... why?
[13:37] <wolfric> it actually downloaded eglibc
[13:37] <wolfric> no nscd
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Guest13138: I'd check what the app installs as deps, see if anything sounds suspect
[13:38] <btaylor927> ActionParsnip, I just added the ipv6 disabling  line to grub and rebooted. How can I check to see if I did it right?
[13:38] <xuser> hi
[13:39] <subb1> when i open files with vi, then input i for starting to edit. then when i type my alphabets or numbers or <backspace> , it is behaving strangely !! The characters i type are not the ones being written and sometimes the cursor jumps around randomly when i press a key. whats the issue?
[13:39] <phlegx> ActionParsnip, Thx, for the answer. The shutdown works perfectly. I have disk encryption, can this be the problem?
[13:39] <xuser> how can i install gyache on ubuntu 11.10?
[13:39] <faLUCE> hi, occasionally the shutdown button on my desktop hangs. How can I solve? (oneiric 11.10)
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> phlegx: no idea, worth scanning it though. I dnt use encryption so couldn't comment on how it would affect stuff
[13:39] <sipior> subb1: you're firing up vi in a terminal, or?
[13:39] <phlegx> ActionParsnip, ok
[13:40] <subb1> sipior, yes . in command line. due to this issue of vi, i use gedit now.
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> xuser: its a dead project but you could compile it
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | xuser  there may be a ppa too
[13:40] <sipior> subb1: does the same problem occur in other terminal-based editors? (nano, &cet.)
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> subb1: could use nano, its a bit friendlier
[13:41] <xuser> yes but it supports webcam on yahoo
[13:41] <xuser> :P
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> xuser: i'm aware of it
[13:41] <sipior> subb1: put another way, does the problem also occur in gvim?
[13:41] <xuser> another im client with yahoo webcam suppoart?
[13:41] <subb1> sipior, it does not occur in nano though
[13:42] <subb1> sipior, i dont have gvim..
[13:43] <sipior> subb1: easy enough to install. might be useful in localising the problem.
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> xuser: http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/download.shtml   have fun
[13:43] <subb1> sipior, is it vim-gtk package
[13:43] <subb1> or vim-gnome?
[13:43] <sipior> subb1: that's the one
[13:44] <xuser> but, do you know other im client with yahoo webcam support?
[13:44] <subb1> sipior, installing now.
[13:44] <Ronis_BR> does anyone have a dell laptop with Dell datasafe software?
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: I have a dell lappy but no datasafe software
[13:45] <subb1> sipior, info: its not local to my system. I have seen this issue on other pcs and laptops installed with lucid.
[13:45] <html> xuser,   how did you get your web camera/ sound to work??
[13:46] <Lolo_> Hi, anyone knows how to use zenity --progress with unrar in order to have a progression bar during an extract ? TY
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: looks like some cloud storage thing
[13:46] <Ronis_BR> ActionParsnip: I saw that this software can mess with grub... I wondering how can I avoid it... there many ways on internet, but I want to be sure.
[13:46] <xuser> i can use webcam with gyache
[13:46] <Ronis_BR> ActionParsnip: it is used to restore your system, create DVD backups
[13:46] <sipior> subb1: you mean you're logged into a remote host, running vim from there?
[13:46] <xuser> i aleready tried this
[13:46] <xuser> and works
[13:46] <jrib> Lolo_: why not just use file-roller?
[13:47] <sipior> subb1: what is the output of "echo $TERM" in that terminal?
[13:47] <subb1> sipior, no. not remote host
[13:47] <tam> does anyone know how i fix php not loading the mysql extension because i didnt install it from the repo, i installed a the 5.5 from a custom repo
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1456519
[13:47] <sipior> subb1: then i'm afraid i don't understand what you were getting at.
[13:47] <subb1> sipior, oh the issue is not what you expected?
[13:47] <xuser> but ,do you know another im client with yahoo webcam support?
[13:47] <xuser> excepting gyache
[13:48] <sipior> subb1: i meant that i don't understand your "it's not local to my system" comment.
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> xuser: why not make life easier and move to a protocol with apps with webcam support like emesene
[13:49] <subb1> sipior, oh i meant to stress that it is not an issue of my pc hardware/software config. I have seen the same issue on my frineds pc also, having lucid
[13:49] <sipior> subb1: i see.
[13:49] <xuser> im from romania
[13:49] <xuser> here peoples use yahoo
[13:50] <xuser> people use yahoo here
[13:50] <xuser> *
[13:50] <subb1> sipior, installed gvim
[13:50] <xuser> so?
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> xuser: you have asked the sam people multiple times, nobody knows. Try later or post on the forums
[13:51] <subb1> sipior, no issue on using gvim to edit.
[13:51] <xuser> ok
[13:51] <sipior> subb1: that's encouraging. what is the value of the TERM environmental variable in your terminal?
[13:51] <xuser> i will use gyache
[13:51] <subb1> xterm
[13:51] <subb1> sipior,  xterm
[13:52] <sipior> subb1: does the problem occur when you launch "vim" (not "vi"). those should be the same, but...
[13:52] <sipior> subb1: also, you might try launching the editor as "vim -u NONE", but i don't think the vimrc is at fault in this case.
[13:53] <subb1> sipior, normal vim also no issue.
[13:53] <evilbug> having trouble with unity loading properly on 11.10. this happened suddenly two days ago without installing updates or modifying the system in any way. the issue only shows up on my account but guest loads fine. any clues?
[13:53] <faLUCE> hi, occasionally the shutdown button on my desktop hangs. How can I solve? (oneiric 11.10)
[13:53] <sipior> subb1: well, there you go :-)
[13:53] <dmtarmey> hello does anyone know were i can get some advice on science software pls?
[13:53] <Lolo_> jrib : i want to use it in a .sh
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: does it happen as a new user?
[13:54] <martian> I just woke up this morning to find that my mysql server instance had seemingly crashed and refuses to start. The only error I get is "start: job failed to start". How can I further debug this?
[13:54] <sipior> subb1: not sure why vi should cause that sort of problem in compatibility mode.
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: ?
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> martian: ask in an sql channel too
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: no
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: same user
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: did you make a fresh user to test?
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: no, I used the same user
[13:54] <subb1> sipior, yes. I have used centos, redhat, debian. not seen this weird vi issue there.
[13:55]  * jdhfr is confused with people running mysql or apache on ubuntu
[13:55] <subb1> sipior, is it related to the desktop env gnome?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: then make a new user and log in as that and test, if it is the same then the app is at fault, if it is ok then your user settings are causing the issue
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: using the same user tests nothing at all
[13:55] <sipior> subb1: possible, but unlikely.
[13:56] <sipior> subb1: use vim/gvim and be happy :-)
[13:56] <sipior> subb1: there's also a #vim here on freenode, if you other problems/questions.
[13:57] <echo_> I use archlinux at times and wrote a script that I put under /etc/rc.d/functions.d/  what is the equivalent in Ubuntu?
[13:57] <subb1> sipior, ok noted that. if i login to remote hosts will i be able to use gvim?
[13:57] <sipior> subb1: yes, login via "ssh -X ..."
[13:57] <sipior> subb1: frankly, sticking to the console is easier/faster.
[13:57] <subb1> sipior, oh only if i login graphically right?
[13:57] <Whitesquall> subb1: you can you tramp in emacs =)
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> echo_: what does the folder do?
[13:57] <Whitesquall> *use
[13:58] <martian> ActionParsnip: If I run mysqld manually as root, the server starts fine so I'm wondering if there was some unattended backup action last night or something that may have done this. I'll keep on searching, but any suggestions are welcome ;)
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> martian: the guys in #mysql may be able to point to what's going on, at least you can get the service up
[13:58] <subb1> Whitesquall, not sure of those. new to linux actually. its my learning time :)
[13:58] <martian> ActionParsnip: yeah, boss off my back for now =D
[13:59] <subb1> sipior: thanks for showing up for help. gooday !
[13:59] <sipior> subb1: yep, same to you.
[13:59] <echo_> ActionParsnip Since I am using an SSD I dump my log files into RAM mounted as tmpfs. My script will use rsync to write back to /var/log when I shutdown my system.
[14:00] <Sjors> Hi
[14:00] <asrockubuntu> Hallo could u please help me? I can't open xbcm now, I have some errors when I do sudo apt-get upadte
[14:00] <Sjors> When is ubuntu 10.04.4 coming out? it was planned for 8 days ago
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> echo_: so it runs at shutdown and startup then?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> asrockubuntu: xbmc isn't supported here
[14:02] <asrockubuntu> right so how may I erase a program from terminal?
[14:05] <echo_> ActionParsnip No so all the log files are written to the SSD and not lost since I keep them in RAM.
[14:06] <ahmad> #ubuntu-ir
[14:06] <echo_> ActionParsnip I guess a normal shutdown like you said is "shutdown -hP now" but I want my script to be running when the system is halting to do the write.
[14:06] <asrockubuntu> Action Parsnip : how may I erase a program? sudo apt-get xxxxx remove?
[14:08] <echo_> asrockubuntu sudo apt-get remove --purge nameofprogram (will get all the config files etc)
[14:08] <rztjm__> sudo apt-get remove xxxx
[14:08] <CaptainQuirk> Hi
[14:09] <echo_> asrockubuntu yeah just using remove is safer but will leave a bunch of junk on your system.
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> Can I customize the "screen" multiplexer so that I have a sort of buffer zone between "regions"
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> like padding or margin in a webpage for example
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> for the sake of legibility
[14:09] <asrockubuntu> ok
[14:10] <echo_> CaptainQuirk screen multiplexer?
[14:10] <CaptainQuirk> echo_, yep
[14:10] <CaptainQuirk> Can't find it in the manual
[14:11] <echo_> CaptainQuirk Hmm are you doing some funky duel headed mult-seat stuff?
[14:11] <CaptainQuirk> echo_, I don't get you
[14:12] <jimmy_birer> join #antiniggers
[14:12] <CaptainQuirk> wtf
[14:13] <echo_> CaptainQuirk Maybe that is some Gnome3 term. I am on xfce as a DE, compiz for wm, emerald as the wm decorator and lightdm as my..well dm. In short idk =/
[14:13] <akpk> wifi icon is missing at top panel,Ubuntu 11.10
[14:15] <echo_> akpk I would think Ubuntu is using wicd. Must be an app I would think in the repos to pop into your panel.
[14:15] <akpk> echo_ wot shud i do ??
[14:16] <auronandace> echo_: ubuntu uses networkmanager and its installed by default
[14:16] <echo_> akpk OK well there should be an app for networkmanager too.
[14:16] <jdhfr> when oneiric service pack 1 will be out?
[14:17] <echo_> akpk is your wifi on?
[14:17] <auronandace> jdhfr: we don't do "service packs"
[14:17] <jdhfr> whatever you fancy to call it, when?
[14:17] <tensorpudding> jdhfr, ubuntu regular releases don't have point releases
[14:17] <tensorpudding> LTS releases do, though
[14:17] <Moshanator> jdhfr, april
[14:18] <echo_> akpk sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart
[14:18] <jdhfr> regular as opposed to what?
[14:18] <tensorpudding> as opposed to the long-term support releases
[14:18] <tensorpudding> which occur every 2 years
[14:18] <tensorpudding> the next is going to be 12.04
[14:18] <auronandace> !lts | jdhfr
[14:18] <tensorpudding> the release cycle for regular releases is 6 months
[14:18] <geekbri> what is the EOL of 10.04? next year?
[14:19] <tensorpudding> april 2013
[14:19] <tensorpudding> on the desktop
[14:19] <tensorpudding> on the server, 2015
[14:19] <geekbri> and server?
 : nothing happend
[14:19] <geekbri> oh ok, so its got a while still
 : nothing happend
[14:19] <tensorpudding> hardy is still under server support
[14:19] <tensorpudding> that's from 2008
[14:20] <echo_> akpk you did not see a msg?
[14:20] <jdhfr> so no chance to upgrade for me? oneiric software is strangely old and buggy, precise looks better
[14:20] <geekbri> isn't the new LTS coming out soon? 12.04?
[14:20] <tensorpudding> yes
[14:20] <tensorpudding> in april

[14:26] <ZynuiMaiche> Hey folks!  I was wondering if anybody here knew the process for installing MATLAB without Wine.  I have an iso (copied the install disk to my HDD).  I've been browsing the internet for a while, and can't determine if I should try and install the repositories (I don't even know what those are...) first and then try and install from the iso or what.  I don't have a disc drive on my netbook...
[14:26] <Duality>  #tkkrlab
[14:26] <ikonia> ZynuiMaiche: matlab is supported on specific ubuntu versions
[14:26] <Duality> oops ignore please :)
[14:27] <ikonia> ZynuiMaiche: if you check the matlab website it lists the supported versions
[14:28] <seguid> hi
[14:28] <d4em0n> does anybody here know a IRC SEO  channel ?
[14:28] <seguid> i seem to be having issues installing cheops-ng on ubuntu 11.10
[14:28] <seguid> i cant seem to install gnome-libs-devel
[14:28] <seguid> anyone else facing this issue
[14:28] <seguid> ?
[14:29] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche if you look at the install file is it a deb, bin, source code?
[14:30] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche prolly more then one OS (windows) on there too.
[14:30] <researcher123> why my Ubuntu 11.10 suddenly became slow? How can I find the cause of it and then correct it?
[14:31] <bazhang> !alis | d4em0n
[14:31] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche here is how to do it. http://www.mathworks.se/support/solutions/en/data/1-9VXDYZ/index.html
[14:32] <amandabe1> My sleeping tty7 is black. I can do ctrl-alt-f4 to get a command line only TTY, but I can't wake my gnome session.
[14:32] <ZynuiMaiche> echo_: I'll give it a go.  Thanks for showing that to me, I'm a little embarassed I couldn't find that on my own xD
[14:32] <amandabe1> I didn't do anything unsual -- just walked away from the computer for a bit.
[14:32] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche np
[14:33] <amandabe1> If I jog the mouse, I do see the mouse on my otherwise black screen.
[14:33] <amandabe1> can I troubleshoot this from another TTY?
[14:33] <researcher123> can anyone help in determining th cause of sudden slowed down Ubuntu 11.10?
[14:34] <lohness> researcher123: run htop to see whats up
[14:34] <researcher123> lohness: ok.trying
[14:35] <DrDank> Hey guys.. I have enhanced effects enabled.. Is there a way to tweak the effects?
[14:35] <echo_> amandabe1 could be all sorts of stuff. I am guessing you are using Gnome3 with lightdm. If so try " sudo restart lightdm "
[14:35] <amandabe1> echo_: ok
[14:36] <allu2> Is it possible/will it work if i run live usb session and install nvidia drivers from jockyey-gtk and then plug the usb to other computer with nvidia card, will i have direct rendering etc like with normal install and nvidia drivers

[14:36] <adac> is there anything special to get work /etc/crontab ?
[14:36] <adac> special to do
[14:36] <amandabe1> echo_: worked.
[14:36] <amandabe1> echo_: thanks.
[14:36] <echo_> =)
[14:36] <echo_> np
[14:37] <echo_> adac no not really. Just a few sec reading how the timing works.
[14:38] <researcher123> lohness: I ran htop but does not make much sense to me. How do I send that output for you to see?
[14:38] <DrDank> Sorry, Im new. Was scrolling through the 'packet manager' and seen 'desktop environments' --- gnome, kde and someothers.. What good are these?
[14:40] <amandabee> echo_: my screen is kind of freaking out in my X session now.
[14:40] <lohness> researcher123: its a program which shows cpu usage and can show memory usage, second for second, so look in the upper left corner if something is using close to 100% of your cpu
[14:40] <amandabee> echo_: If I disconnect the external monitor it seems okay, but plugged in I'm getting black flickers around the edges.
[14:41] <auronandace> DrDank: for your enhanced effects you may want to try adding compiz config settings manager (ccsm)
[14:41] <auronandace> DrDank: different desktop environments appeal to different users
[14:41] <researcher123> lohness: Can you see the image here and advice something http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/688/htopreport.png/
[14:41] <overclucker> researcher123: top -n 1
[14:41] <echo_> amandabee are you using a Nvida card? Should like a buffer problem.

[14:42] <ronin___> Hi, i download eclipse indigo.tar.gz when I want untar it I've got an error?
[14:42] <DrDank> well this laptop is kinda old.. its nothing super fancy.. I love how the windows act with the effects on.. the jiggle effect I guess you could call it.
[14:42] <researcher123> overclucker: what does it mean? Im newbie
[14:42] <obo> Hi All
[14:42] <amandabee> echo_: i am (I think).
[14:43] <ronin___> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[14:43] <overclucker> researcher123: oh, i was just giving you a command with pastebinable output
[14:43] <ronin___> what does it mean?
[14:43] <DrDank> Installing ccsm now.
[14:43] <martian> Earlier I had a problem starting mysql. It crashed overnight it seems and would not start using the init.d script or 'service' tool. I was able to start it manually using 'sudo mysqld'. Is there anywhere I could find a log of why the init script was failing?
[14:43] <researcher123> overclucker: ok.thanks
[14:44] <llutz> ronin___: it does mean your file is " not in gzip format", easy
[14:44] <DrDank> it said installation/removal failed. :-\
[14:44] <obo> Could someone help  how to configure  evolutution with microsoft exchange 2003 server?
[14:45] <DrDank> well that was simple ccsm.. -- the advanced worked.
[14:45] <researcher123> what can be done to identify the cause of a suddenly slowed down PC?
[14:45] <Datum_Errata> ronin___: tar -xvf file.tar
[14:45] <ronin___> llutz: I know but i download eclipse indigo and now i want install it!
[14:45] <Datum_Errata> rather, tar -xzvf file.tar.gz
[14:45] <echo_> amandabee Might be an issue with Gnome3 and rendering with the drivers your using. I use to use bleeding edge xorg and mesa with Nvidia and always had stuff like that happen. Expressly if I was compositing with Compiz
[14:46] <ronin___> Datum_Errata: same error again?
[14:46] <llutz> ronin___: either you file is broken or you did somenthing wrong to untar it. "tar xzf file.tar.gz"  check "file file.tar.gz" if it really is gzipped
[14:46] <Datum_Errata> ronin___:no, the error is different
[14:46] <llutz> ronin___: should say something like "gzip compressed data"
[14:46] <cokesmoke> Hi, anyone know how to get a VNC running Gnome to start at boot?
[14:47] <martian> obo: What aspect of it are you having trouble with?
[14:47] <ronin___> llutz: for file file.tar i've got file.tar: data
[14:47] <llutz> ronin___: tar or tar.gz? tar xf file.tar
[14:48] <llutz> ronin___: you talked about tar.gz before, not about plain .tar
[14:48] <Datum_Errata> ronin___ what command are you executing?
[14:48] <ronin___> llutz: same error: tar: Child returned status 1
[14:48] <llutz> ronin___: i'd say broken file
[14:49] <ronin___> Datum_Errata: I use tar -zxvf or gzip -d in yakuake termianl
[14:49] <researcher123> how to improve PC speed? I am on Ubuntu 11.10 , 64 bit
[14:49] <martian> cokesmoke: this seems like a decent run-through: http://www.abdevelopment.ca/blog/start-vnc-server-ubuntu-boot
[14:49] <Datum_Errata> it's either a syntax error or a broken file
[14:50] <bean> researcher123, improving speed is usually hardware related.
[14:50] <llutz> ronin___: get the file again, "tar xzf file.tar.gz" then
[14:50] <martian> researcher123: There is no way to do so. If there was, it would already be build in to the OS.
[14:50] <cokesmoke> I've tried that one, but only got a black windows when I boot. If i boot it manually using vncserver command, eberything seems to work
[14:51] <researcher123> martian: it was suddenly slowed down
[14:51] <researcher123> martian: my pc was fast until last week
[14:51] <quixotedon> researcher123: hardware resources play a big role, while you can reduce the ram by closing unnecessary program you are using

[15:10] <rhom> any Idea how to choose between the networks.. (like eth0 and wlan0) for different application.
[15:11] <Nach0z> rhom: depends on the application I believe. usually they get assigned different IPs, so the application probably has a bind-ip setting that you can set up to make it bind to the IP of a specific interface
[15:12] <pk> Nach0z:  yes it may help me ill try it thanks
[15:12] <rhom> Nach0z: does firefox supports it?

[15:16] <obo> martian: Exact error  is "Exchange server is not compactable with Exchange connector"
[15:16] <Guest24433> server : irc.mindforge.org
[15:17] <th_> hello all
[15:17] <dlentz> saikat, can you pasetbin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:17] <_Marcus> Hello th_
[15:18] <saikat> okay
[15:18] <Guest24433> Chinese laguna.
[15:18] <th_> is there anyone who has experience of setuping headless virtualbox? im having trouble with ethernet :(
[15:19] <th_> should command vboxmanage modifyvm "os" --nic1 intnet setup ethernet so my win client can connect to internet?
[15:19] <compdoc> obo, it uses the word 'compactable'   ?
[15:19] <_Marcus> th_: In my opinon(I dont know what others would say), I think that you would get better help in #vbox
[15:19] <_Marcus> Or you can leave...
[15:20] <dlentz> lol
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> Th_ set your network to 'bridged'
[15:20] <th_> hello all
[15:20] <obo> compdoc : oops its compatible
[15:23] <compdoc> obo, Exchange can provide pop3 or imap. I dont know how the Evolution Exchange Connector works, but you dont have to use it. And I'm not sure why you or other ppl have mentioned OWA - its for browsers only.
[15:26] <Myrtti> compdoc: evolution historically has used the OWA as compatibility layer to use calendar /etc features on Exchange.
[15:26] <compdoc> Myrtti, hmmm, interesting
[15:28] <obo> compdoc: If i select microsoft exchange option ,obly popup coming is to give owa url. Meantime i checked with pop3 or imap. But it doesn't help me
[15:28] <Nimanicka> Hello
[15:28] <compdoc> obo, does OWA work otherwise?
[15:30] <compdoc> with my customers, the owa address is:   www.domain.com/exchange
[15:30] <obo> comdoc: it is giving exchange server not compatible with exchange connector. But i'm  using exchage 2003 which is compatible
[15:30] <compdoc> obo, are you on the lan, or outside?
[15:30] <Flugmeise> hi, any idea why pxe boot resets the machine after transmitting the initrd.lz
[15:31] <obo> compdoc : LAN only
[15:32] <antonio96> !list
[15:32] <n3dj4> e

[15:38] <martian> Nimanicka: You probably don't need to be installing norton on Ubuntu
[15:38] <xangua> Nimanicka: why do you exactly want a norton antivirus¿
[15:38] <sipior> Nimanicka: find somewhere else to play.
[15:38] <bazhang> Nimanicka, wine is software, not the drink
[15:38] <cac> bazhang: awesome, was looking for that, thanks
[15:38] <_Marcus> Nimanicka: No, Wine is a program, wine is a drink.

[15:41] <omlk> Hi, is there a way to spawn the default Ubuntu's GTk NetworkManager as a standalone application?
[15:41] <Bassy> yes
[15:41] <obo> comdoc we are running exchange 2003
[15:41] <omlk> how would I do that?
[15:42] <Bassy> sorry .. i was in response to something else

[15:43] <LukeNukem_> i uninstalled unitty and the GUI is now messed up there is no option to logout n stuff
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: gnome-session-save --kill --silent
[15:44] <SaYaNs> gnome-session-save --kill --silent i'll keep taht in mind :)
[15:44] <LukeNukem_> ActionParsnip: command does not exist
[15:45] <LukeNukem_> marcus, logout does not work..exit closes terminal only
[15:45] <Bassy> maybe you guys can help .. i want to install Ubuntu Server .. theres no GUI but there is a command to install the gui I've tried everything .. any ideas?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: or:  sudo service lightdm restart
[15:45] <saikat> i have pasted there.....
[15:45] <Pici> Bassy: What desktop environment did you want to install?
[15:45] <auronandace> Bassy: use apt-get like usual
[15:46] <Bassy> i did .. and i ttried various different environments but i kep getting an error
[15:46] <Bassy> il have to go back and refresh my memory to  ask this question more clearly i cant remember exactly
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> ActionParsnip: it went blank and put me back on the desktop.....
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> maybe i should instal unity and do sudo service lightdm restart
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> how to install unity
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> Bassy: I suggest you install lxde for a light desktop. the whole idea of the desktop is to be desktopless...
[15:47] <bazhang> LukeNukem_, what version of ubuntu
[15:47] <Bassy> lol
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: sudo apt-get install unity
[15:47] <Bassy> thanks
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> 11.10
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> installing
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> Bassy: if you need a desktop OS, install a desktop OS
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> ok how to restart
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> i mean
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> how to logout
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> ok
[15:50] <snimavat> Quite dumb - but where all the installed applications are listed in unity desktop ? I mean i see just one side bar - where are all the top menus gone - ?
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: do you mean "file Edit View.." etc
[15:50] <xangua> snimavat: clic the ubuntu icon, then clic the apps icon in the dash
[15:50] <SaYaNs> I think he mean applications,places etc
[15:50] <snimavat> Installed softwares - gparted, video players, chrome or any thing else.
[15:50] <SaYaNs> I want that back
[15:51] <urlin2u> snimavat, the top button in the left bar is called the dash it has a search and buttons at the bottom
[15:51] <samael23> does anybody know to fore the tab to show the text directories in ubuntu 10.10 im kinda lost
[15:51] <snimavat> so i have to search - won't it list apps ? what if i dont remember name !
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: if you press your windows key, or click the icon in the top left, the remaining apps are there. You can drag apps to the bar as you please
[15:52] <f4st3r_d0wn> is there some body help me how to sharing file between ubuntu with ubuntu ?
[15:53] <Lachezar> Hi all. I am having weird issue: when I try to ping one specific IP that is not in the LAN, my laptop attempts to ARP it. How come? It's one SPECIFIC IP address.
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> samael23: in a terminal, that is default, you can TAB complete file and folder names
[15:53] <snimavat> okey - there's an option for "show installed apps" in dash home -
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: You need the ethernet address as it is on the same network segment
[15:54] <snimavat> But the older ui was less confusing  - i think
[15:54] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: It is _NOT_ on the same network segment
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: if you install xfce4 and log off, then log into the XFCE session, it will probably be more familiar to you
[15:54] <urlin2u> snimavat, I use a app called synapse which opens a search with key prompts and has a dropdown for stuff with what you type in for search.
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: sorry, misread
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: is it just that one IP?
[15:55] <saikat> saikat.80in@gmail.com     this is my e-mail id...please send me some resolution on it....
[15:55] <SaYaNs> i have associated all my .exe files with wine and so when i open them it istall normally and when i try to open it, it gives me an error. Do i have to install another plugins
[15:55] <snimavat> humn okey - will take few days to get familiar - not an issue
[15:55] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Yes, I can find easily other IPs in the target network, just this one...
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: the file must be marked as executable
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: is there a VPN involved?
[15:55] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Nope.
[15:56] <kermit> my pointer dissapears a lot, is that a setting somewhere?
[15:56] <SaYaNs> how will i do that ActionParsnip
[15:56] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: you should also check the appdb for compatibility
[15:57] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Me(192.168.1.x) <- (wlan) -> (192.168.1.1) Router (192.168.2.1) <- LAN -> (192.168.2.y) Target
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: chmod +x filename.exe    obviously you will need to specify path and filename (case sensitive)
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: so your LAN is split into 2 subnets?
[15:57] <SaYaNs> newbies here... :D
[15:58] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: many subnets actually. Not exactly same location.
[15:58] <SaYaNs> do i have to do that from wine or terminal
[15:58] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: I can ping 192.168.2.Z, but not 192.168.2.Y, and tcpdump shows ARP requests for 192.168.2.Y, which is... Well.. WRONG.
[15:58] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: if you have a program called WinApp.exe in your Downloads folder you will run:  chmod +x ~/Downloads/WinApp.exe
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: do you have a route specifying how the 192.168.2.0 network
[15:59] <SaYaNs> k. got it.. Thanks
[15:59] <module000> Lachezar: arp'ing the wrong subnet suggests your routes are the problem
[16:00] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: module000: My routing table has a default route, a 192.168.1.0/24 route and a 169.254.0.0/16 route.
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: you should add one for 192.168.2.0/24 too
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> etc
[16:01] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Nah... The router takes care of routing between different networks.
[16:01] <kermit> how do i change the graphics driver X uses?
[16:01] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: The default route works with the other nets, just not _THAT_ host.
[16:03] <Lachezar> What could possibly make my laptop search for a specific host on the local network?
[16:04] <Lachezar> After restart the behaviour persists.
[16:05] <henrik_> Hello - need help with serial port heeeeeelp :-)
[16:06] <kermit> x isnt autodetecting my graphics card.. i had nvidia but now i have an i915 based card.. on a different system it autodetects the same card, so i have to somehow undo whatever nvidia did?
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> kermit: what GPU do you have and what driver gets oaded and which driver do you want to use?
[16:08] <kermit> ActionParsnip: how do i tell which gets loaded?  i want to use i915  i have an intel mobile 4 chipset.
[16:08] <sivakumar> how to get software resources for ubuntu 9.10
[16:09] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades sivakumar
[16:09] <pilot419> Is ubuntu 12.04 out?
[16:09] <bazhang> pilot419, not til april, no
[16:10] <ikonia> if you don't even know if an OS is out, should you really consider using it ?
[16:10] <LjL> sivakumar: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ but you should upgrade
[16:10] <sivakumar> i am trying to install patch package in ubuntu 9.10 but i am getting the error package is not found and have to get from another resources
[16:11] <bazhang> sivakumar, it's end of life, you need to upgrade
[16:11] <kermit> ActionParsnip: brb im trying dpkg-reconfigure
[16:13] <Lachezar> Update: I can see an ARP (incomplete) for the 192.168.2.Z address, and can _NOT_ delete it: arp -d -i wlan0 192.168.2.Z
[16:13] <sivakumar> bazhang, if i upgrade means then the version of ubuntu will change na ....
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: try prefixing with sudo
[16:13] <bazhang> sivakumar, for support, thats what you need to do
[16:13] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: :) Not that noobish.
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> sivakumar: EOL releases are not supportedf in any way you can name
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: covering the bases
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: could restart network service, shoul wipe it clean afaik
[16:14] <strange> hey guys my sound just stopped working out of nowhere
[16:14] <_Marcus> strange: Are you using headphones?
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> strange: try:  killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse*   then wait a few seconds then try sound applications
[16:15] <strange> _Marcus: no its a laptop with built in speakers it worked up untill a few minutes ago
[16:15] <strange> ok lets ee
[16:15] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Yep the ARP (incomplete) is gone with .../networking restart
[16:16] <strange> thanks you ActionParsnip
[16:16] <strange> taht worked
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> :)
[16:17] <SaYaNs> ActionParship is like GOOGLE :)
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: just been on the OS long enough
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: i prefer to be compared to duckduckgo too =D
[16:21] <kermit> ActionParsnip: the resolution is right this time, but judging from glxgears, theres no acceleration support (and thus no compiz)
[16:22] <carbon__> simple question if someone has a second.  In the terminal if I "cd /" I get my root directory but if I accidentally "cd \" ( backslash)  I get a ">"  What is the  >.  ?
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> kermit: you make that sound bad ;)
[16:22] <Manehattan> hello,. I have a huge problem with installing ubuntu on my newly bought laptop and I'm really desperate by now
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: it wants you to continue the command
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: what happens when you try?
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: you can use \ to break up a line of code to multiple lines so it's more readable, you can just press CTRL+C and it will stop
[16:23] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: The live usb works, I can install ubuntu fine, every thing works, until I reboot: The laptop insists there no OS installed
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: is the internal drive set as the bootable device in BIOS?
[16:24] <Manehattan> I am on the fifth re-installation
[16:24] <Manehattan> yes it is
[16:24] <kermit> ActionParsnip: so i know this card is supported, i have the same model on another system.. just this system where i swapped cards, its not being detected
[16:24] <Manehattan> even when go into boot menu and force booting from it, it insists there is no OS
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: if you boot with the USB stick in then tell it to boot the internal drive, does it boot?
[16:24] <kermit> is there a place where i can see the what the graphics auto detection process was doing to know maybe why it failed?
[16:24] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: I will try that now
[16:24] <Guest61356> clear
[16:24] <carbon__> actionparsnip:  ohh.  So if I was typing a long line of code in a basic editor i could "codecodecode \ codecodecode" then exicute it all in one line or command ?
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: yes, it just breaks things up a bit
[16:26] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: you can use it in bash scripts if your editor doesn't support word wrapping and you want to se all of the code, obviously the 2 commands on the one line would need to interact somehow
[16:26] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: Will take a moment, I just re-did the partitions via a gentoo
[16:26] <Gallomimia> hello. i'm about to run some updates on a server which i admin. should i do a do-release-update or just simply update my packages and consider an OS update later?
[16:27] <Gallomimia> uh..... what's the command i can use to see which version is running?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: lsb_release -sc
[16:27] <carbon__> actionparsnip:  Thank you.  That explain's a lot.  I don't know how I got this far with out knowing that.
[16:28] <Gallomimia> iiiii don't care about the name of the release. i like numbers ><
[16:28] <Gallomimia> it says lucid. wtf does that mean
[16:28] <LjL> Gallomimia: lsb_release -a will give you the number
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: you never said...
[16:29] <Gallomimia> ActionParsnip: well the questions i'm asking should tell you i'm quite the nub, and codenames won't mean jack to me. just sayin'
[16:29] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: cat /etc/lsb-release | grep -i release | grep -v grep
[16:29] <pynoobmuc> hi I am new to ubuntu, I like it. I am using 11.10 at the moment do I have to update to the newer versions? (security etc.?)
[16:29] <Gallomimia> 0o
[16:30] <imbezol> Gallomimia: try 'man lsb_release'
[16:30] <samael23> does anybody know where the directory of the ./configure is located
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: simple bash command
[16:30] <Gallomimia> no thanks. -a is all i need.
[16:30] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: mine is a bit prettier
[16:30] <scruff> samael23, find / -name configure -ls
[16:30] <imbezol> k. come back next time you need the answer to a question that would be answered in two seconds with the man command
[16:30] <Gallomimia> next question. should a server update to current versions or is 10.04.1 fine?
[16:31] <Gallomimia> imbezol i didn't know what command i wanted when i came in here, so no, the man wouldn't help me. thanks for your extreme helpfulness
[16:31] <LjL> Gallomimia: the server part is supported until april 2015, so fine
[16:32] <LjL> imbezol: no need for that attitude
[16:32] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: 10.04 server is supported until 2015 so I'd hang on that. Precise is also LTS so you can upgrade directly to that in April if you wish
[16:32] <Gallomimia> agreed on the release version. but i'm quite certain i want the 76 security updates it blabs about every time i ssh in, yes?
[16:33] <scruff> yes
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: sure upgrade away
[16:33] <Pici> Gallomimia: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   will fix that.
[16:33] <LjL> Gallomimia: asbolutely always install security updates
[16:33] <Gallomimia> damn server is so busy all the time :/
[16:34] <Gallomimia> wish i could find a time when there wasn't so many players on it
[16:34] <lotuspsychje> howto fix unity bug on corrupt mouse pointer at boot?
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: you should schedule a regular outage window of an hour or so, so you can perform maintenance. Servers need love
[16:35] <Gallomimia> yeah. we just don't want to :(
[16:36] <totesmuhgoats> how can i update my system from the command line. when i use apt-get upgrade some packages are not updated, seems like the ones that require a reboot
[16:36] <Gallomimia> ah, i'm doing that exact thing
[16:36] <ActionParsnip> totesmuhgoats: can you give a pastebin of:  sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade       Thanks
[16:36] <LjL> totesmuhgoats: try apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:36] <GBGames> My Ubuntu laptop died, and I'm trying to pull down the pics off my digital camera to my desktop. I can't recall what the software was on my laptop, though. It downloaded images to a folder I specified with subfolders named like [year]-[month]-[date]--[hour].[minute].[second]
[16:37] <totesmuhgoats> ActionParsnip: well i just updated using the graphical tool, would the pastebin still be useful?
[16:37] <Gallomimia> this dist-upgrade, will it reboot the system?
[16:37] <Pici> Gallomimia: no.
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: there is a tool to slip in kernel updates so you don't need to reboot, but I can't remember its name
[16:37] <raven> 11.10 googleearth 6.0.3.219 - unable to change any font setting in config file
[16:37] <Pici> ActionParsnip: ksplice.
[16:37] <Gallomimia> i'm willing to reboot after an update, but i'd prefer to wait until a map change on my game server ;)
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> Pici: thats the rascal
[16:37] <Gallomimia> my clients are whiners, despite repeated bans and gags of those who whine :P
[16:38] <raven> 11.10 googleearth 6.0.3.219 - unable to change any font setting in config file any idea?
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: ksplice will slipstream in kernel updates for you, negating the need to reboot to load the newest kernel
[16:38] <Pici> Gallomimia: I can't think of anything besides a complete release upgrade that would absolutely require a reboot.
[16:38] <Gallomimia> sounds deadly.
[16:38] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: what if the live usb doesn't have an option "boot from disk"?
[16:38] <Pici> Gallomimia: A kernel upgrade should be followed by a reboot, but theres no reason that you need to do it immediately after performing your upgrades.
[16:38] <totesmuhgoats> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/9VHfaZJQ
[16:39] <totesmuhgoats> i don't know if it will be helpful since i just did the update graphically
[16:39] <sipior> Gallomimia: in fact, a reboot is never strictly necessary. have a look at kexec, et alia.
[16:39] <totesmuhgoats> if it isn't i can come back in a few days and paste again
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: did you use unetbootin to make the USB stick?
[16:39] <Gallomimia> heh. as a linux noob i'll refrain from playing with special tools to dodge reboots
[16:40] <raven> 11.10 googleearth 6.0.3.219 - unable to change any font setting in config file any idea?
[16:40] <Gallomimia> not an uptime whore :/
[16:40] <sipior> Gallomimia: that's half the fun! :-)
[16:40] <Gallomimia> heh. nah. just run the game server and let us play
[16:41] <ActionParsnip> Gallomimia: then you need a scheduled outage window
[16:41] <Gallomimia> right. so logging into ssh as root no longer spams me about updates, it says reboot required
[16:41] <Gallomimia> and it's a vds, so reboots are fucking quick
[16:41] <Pici> Gallomimia: mind the language here please.
[16:41] <Gallomimia> er, excuse my foul mouth
[16:41] <Gallomimia> it's a swearing-allowed game server. plus i work construction
[16:41] <LukeNukem> #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:41] <ActionParsnip> totesmuhgoats: looks fine, I suggest you re-lock the root account. You can get a root prompt with:  sudo -i   and your system will be more secure

[16:45] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: you can boot to the current USB, chroot to the installed OS and reinstate grub, personally I'd just run upgrades (assuming you can get online) and it should help
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> akpk: is your RAM healthy?
[16:45] <roj> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing i read it do it but not sharing now

[16:49] <ronin___> Hi, I try to install eclipse idigo in ubuntu 10.10, anyone can help me?
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> totesmuhgoats: there is no root pass by default in ubuntu, the account is disabled. so nobody can use the account at all
[16:49] <gediminas> HEllo! MY friends and linux lovers!
[16:49] <totesmuhgoats> ActionParsnip: ah

[16:50] <_Marcus> gediminas: Any more information?
[16:50] <gediminas> i installed ubuntu
[16:51] <Gallomimia> good choice
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> gediminas: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh; chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh; ./alsa-info.sh

[16:51] <gediminas> OO Thanks
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> gediminas: maverick is EOL in april, just so you are aware
[16:52] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: fdisk told me the fist 2048 blocks are not in the partitions, is that maybe a reason
[16:53] <ronin___> ActionParsnip: ?
[16:53] <FesterJester> hello all. Question about a headless Ubuntu 10.04 setup. I have everything setup and working except for the login prompt on the physically attached screen. It willn not show unless I press CTRL+ALT+F1
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: strange, possibly
[16:54] <gediminas> :/
[16:54] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: This is already a replacement, I had a laptop last week that did not accept an OS either and I sent it back
[16:54] <shomon> hi, do you know how I can turn on middle-button-pasting in ubuntu?
[16:55] <shomon> I used to have that luxury until yesterday's update... on ubuntu 10.04
[16:55] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: maybe the "no OS" in the catalogue meant that there is no OS installable, ever
[16:55] <gediminas> ActionParsnip I remember you helped my with that problem with sound
[16:56] <Aressz> how to downloads and install alsa? :[
[16:56] <roj> i need to share internt from eth1 wait dhcp ip adress and eth0 access point with 192.168.0.1 ip
[16:56] <LjL> Aressz: it's installed by default.
[16:57] <Aressz> but i remember i installed it with actionparsnip help and sound worked
[16:57] <Aressz> maybe i need ALL alsa drivers ?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: could try fscking the partitions, make sure they are healthy

[17:03] <raven> 11.10 googleearth 6.0.3.219 - unable to change any font setting in config file any idea?
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> raven: is that the latest?
[17:03] <Aressz> ActionParsnip: YEP! You gave me that code before about half year THANKS!
[17:03] <raven> ActionParsnip built today
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> Aressz: np :), as I said. Maverick is EOL soon so no more support or updates
[17:04] <Aressz> On April will be updates ?
[17:04] <Aressz> sorry for my english :[
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> raven: give me a sec
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> raven: seems to be recent, is it the same as a fresh user?
[17:07] <Aressz> it works! SOUND IS WORKING! ACTIONParsnip YOU ARE THE BEST!
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> Aressz: np man, you just got alsa 1.0.24 which can help
[17:09] <shomon> how can I find out more about the old fashioned unix way of "cutting and pasting" - via mouse actions, and how to get it working in ubuntu again?
[17:10] <raven> ActionParsnip yes
[17:10] <nord73> is there a reason dm-mirror.ko isn't included in the install cd/netinstall?
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> raven: all I can say is report a bug, it is a proprietary app which makes things harder. Is there a google earth forum?
[17:11] <raven> ActionParsnip do not know
[17:12] <saikat> can anybody tell me how to set 1280x800 resolution in 14'' laptop on ubuntu 10.04
[17:12] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: the unetbootin has no "boot from disk" either in the menu
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> saikat: what video chip?
[17:12] <saikat> intel
[17:12] <milen8204> How can I Burn an ISO file whit Brasero I have tried several times but every time the programs says that have a error
[17:12] <Manehattan> I want to curl up in a corner and cry, a new laptop I can't use
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> saikat: have you tried a later release, if you have a fancy new intel gpu, you may benefit from the newer drivers and kernel
[17:13] <buschwusch> :0
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: tried another distro to test, like Suse etc..
[17:13] <saikat> no i have to install 10.04 only
[17:13] <saikat> i may update kernel
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> saikat: why do you 'have to'?
[17:13] <saikat> its customer demand
[17:14] <saikat> is it possible ???
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> saikat: there is a ppa for it but it won't be supported here if you use it
[17:15] <saikat> may i install some otherway
[17:16] <saikat> is there some other way???
[17:17] <saikat> please reply
[17:17] <auronandace> saikat: compile your own kernel, though that won't be supported here either
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> saikat: if you use a different kernel to the one intended for your OS it won't be supported here
[17:18] <saikat> xrandr command helpful or not???
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> saikat: the other way is to form an xorg.conf file to make the display work
[17:18] <saikat> but the file is not there
[17:19] <shomon> is there a better place to ask about this mouse pasting issue?
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> saikat: yes, you MAKE it
[17:19] <saikat> mean /etc/xorg/xorg.conf
[17:19] <neo_> BUENAS
[17:19] <LjL> !es | neo_
[17:19] <neo_> buenas chicos alguno habla español?
[17:19] <saikat> how???by gedit!!
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> saikat: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:19] <shomon> hola Neo-- conoces #ubuntu-es?
[17:19] <shomon> ah exactly :)
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> saikat: yes, its a text file
[17:19] <neo_> ok
[17:19] <Resistance> saikat, its not made by default.  you'd have to create the file, with nano or gedit.
[17:20] <Resistance> bah, lag
[17:20] <Neo--> shomon, sorry?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> saikat: I'd try Oneiric liveCD to see if it helps
[17:20] <_cb> doing ls-l lists: drwxr-x---  3 file permissions for a folder. Want to change it too: drwxr-xr-x 54. How do I do that?
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> saikat: you will need:  gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf     to get write access
[17:20] <shomon> sorry wrong neo_ , Neo--
[17:20] <saikat> what would be the content of the file???
[17:20] <Neo--> shomon, oh I see :) no prob :)
[17:21] <neo_> inthis room no somebody
[17:21] <LjL> !fixres
[17:21] <shomon> but you both may be called upon in the war against the matrix...
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> saikat: there are samples online, you will fid some around if you search, you are going to be trying the configs and if you get no desktop you will need to drop to root recovery mode or TTY1 to rename the file, long process
[17:22] <neo_> if try xorg reconfigure?
[17:23] <shomon> where is the mouse configured? I'm suspecting my mouse config didn't work
[17:23] <neo_> join ubuntu.es
[17:23] <shomon> in ubuntu 11.04 that is
[17:23] <LjL> neo_: /join #ubuntu-es
[17:23] <yumbo> Is it possible to run windows and linux at the same time, while playing a game (3d) in windows?
[17:23] <saikat> after create the xorg.conf...what to do???
[17:24] <neo_> gracias ljl
[17:24] <auronandace> yumbo: use linux in a vm?
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> saikat: you could show your customer this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[17:24] <_cb> yumbo running wndows and linux on a virtual machine
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> saikat: if they want lucid because it is LTS, you can show them that Oneiric (latest stable) is LTS at the same time as Lucid desktop
[17:25] <yumbo> auronandace, I would rather not run a vm with Windows as host (windows is not stable enough)
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> saikat: is EOL, sorry
[17:25] <yumbo> _cb, can I run a vm in linux that allows me to play a game in windows?
[17:25] <ciwolsey> If I install the ATI driver and then do a dist-upgrade ... will that driver then be incompatible with the new kernel?
[17:25] <shomon> virtualbox can probably do some of that yumbo
[17:25] <Guest15276> I can't kill firefox. It's frozen and using top with the PID is doing nothing.
[17:25] <saikat> what??
[17:25] <shomon> depending on the game
[17:26] <yumbo> shomon, team fortress 2
[17:26] <neo_> whos helpme to install vt6655 drivers?
[17:26] <auronandace> yumbo: gaming in windows inside virtualbox doesn't really work yet
[17:26] <ciwolsey> What's the easiest way to keep my ATI driver up to date in ubuntu?
[17:26] <htorque> hey, any idea where the monochrome icons in thunderbird come from? http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=196364
[17:26] <shomon> Guest15276, if you can, try typing "xkill" and you'll be able to mouse over it and kill it
[17:26] <_cb> yumbo i believe you can but you are going to have to have a powerfull machine preferably on the supports virtualization. Look at virtualbox, kvm, xen. Maybe there are others
[17:27] <shomon> best to dual boot IMO yumbo
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> saikat: the support for Lucid deskop and Oneiric desktop expires at the same time, so I would query why Lucid is needed
[17:27] <neo_> whos helpme install vt6655 drivers???
[17:27] <Resistance> yumbo: note that if you need hardware graphics, they dont exactly operate well in a Windows VM...
[17:27] <yumbo> shomon, _cb, ok thanks
[17:27] <shomon> np
[17:27] <Resistance> yumbo: you're more better off using a dualboot config for gaming in Windows whilst using Linux
[17:27] <yumbo> Resistance, I need my HD4850 to work fully in the vm then
[17:27] <saikat> it iit is demanded by customer
[17:28] <saikat> in there tender
[17:28] <Resistance> yumbo: you wont get that with VMs.  I've tried, and I've got an nVidia GeForce
[17:28] <buschwusch> ;
[17:28] <ciwolsey> Nobody?
[17:28] <Guest15276> shomon: thanks
[17:28] <Resistance> yumbo: even allowing the VMs access to the hardware card is limited by the card, and Linux
[17:28] <Resistance> yumbo: that's why i finally said "screw it" and dualbooted
[17:28] <buschwusch> l
[17:28] <neo_> whos helpme to install vt6655 driver via?
[17:29] <saikat> i am working on it for klast 5-6 days....
[17:29] <Resistance> yumbo: granted I have a 1TB hard drive, so I have ample amounts of space for both Linux and Windows
[17:29] <Guest15276> shomon: That worked much better thank you!
[17:29] <buschwusch> k
[17:29] <saikat> but still no result has come out
[17:29] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: should the first mb of the disk be without a partition?
[17:29] <neo_> i need install vt6655 via drivers whos helpme?
[17:29] <shomon> no prob Guest15276
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: the last few Mb sometimes don't the fist ones will afair
[17:30] <shomon> can anyone help me? I'm trying to reconfigure a mouse that seems not to have configured properly
[17:30] <shomon> or corrupted setup maybe...
[17:30] <shomon> is there an easy way to edit X11 config in ubuntu without breaking everything? a graphical interface maybe?
[17:30] <yumbo> Resistance, ok thank you
[17:30] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: trying gentoo now, last straw
[17:31] <neo_> here cant nothing bah
[17:31] <Resistance> yumbo: yep.  note that most gamers would be better off using a Windows / Linux dualboot config rather than a Windows VM inside Linux
[17:31] <Resistance> yumbo: unless you're playing Runescape, go with a dualboot :P
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> neo_: my Oneiric has vt6656_stage module by default..
[17:31] <chuck1310> I tried to configure triple screen with two graphical cart under Ubuntu but without any result
[17:31] <neo_> so what?

[17:32] <Guest15276> I killed the window but the firefox process is still running and 44% of memory..
[17:32] <chuck1310> I was the Nvidia graphical interface to configure the X server but I fail to configure the triple screen

[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: kill it
[17:33] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: When I try to kill it using top with the PID nothing happens
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: kill -9 PID
[17:33] <neo_> ok i try now
[17:34] <chuck1310> With Seven my triple screen is automaticaly correctly configure
[17:34] <chuck1310> *configured

[17:35] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: Still there..
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> chuck1310: what is Seven?
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: can you give a pastebin of the output of: ps -ef | grep -i fire     Thanks
[17:35] <chuck1310> ActionParsnip: the number next to six
[17:35] <neo_> ActionParsnip:  dischargin now
[17:36] <lamefun2> hello
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> chuck1310: so how does the number 7 get 3 monitors, its simply the notion of a value?
[17:37] <auronandace> ActionParsnip: i think he is refering to win7
[17:38] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/bytyNUMn
[17:38] <chuck1310> ActionParsnip: It's indeed a very abstract concept
[17:39] <Guest15276> Wish I could use chrome for everything but it crashes on http auth
[17:39] <Guest15276> chromium*
[17:41] <voidvector> hi, i am running oneiric, how do i force a package and its depencies to use the precise version?
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: tried chromium? especialy the daily build?
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: sudo kill -9 12828
[17:42] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: Chromium works for most everything, except sites using http auth (like our internal site)
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: use some real force
[17:42] <Guest15276> SUDO
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: never had an issues
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: yes, will kill any users processes

[17:44] <ciwolsey> Linux on the desktop makes me want to die
[17:44] <kaipreshaw> ciwolsey, ?
[17:44] <ciwolsey> It's hell
[17:44] <ciwolsey> Linux should be on servers and that's it
[17:44] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: tried killing 12922 nothing
[17:44] <kaipreshaw> !offtopic | ciwolsey
[17:44] <n3uron_> kaipreshaw, system settings, user accounts - login page on, if thats what you're asking.
[17:45] <ciwolsey> Ok then, Ubuntu makes me want to die.
[17:45] <bazhang> ciwolsey, thats enough
[17:45] <saikat> i am using 10.04.3 LTS
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: then try:  sudo kill -9 12922    then rerun:  ps -ef | grep -i fire   fo make sure that has gone
[17:45] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, i cant find it
[17:45] <ciwolsey> All I want to do is update ATI drivers to latest.
[17:46] <ciwolsey> It's a nightmare.
[17:46] <auronandace> ciwolsey: complaining doesn't get you help faster
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: nobody cares, this is a support channel, no a place to vent your opinion
[17:46] <saikat> is it possible to change the screen resolution as 1280x800 on ubuntu 10.04.3
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: if you don't like it, don't use it
[17:46] <Guest15276> ActionParsnip: plugin is gone, still can't kill 12828
[17:46] <ciwolsey> Unfortunately I'm forced to.
[17:47] <n3uron_> kaipreshaw, click on dash, then type system and you will see a wheel and a wrench, click it and go to user accounts (should be lower left corner)
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: how so?
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> Guest15276: I can't think of a bigger hammer than -9
[17:47] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, yes whats next
[17:47] <n3uron_> kaipreshaw, lower right* sorry
[17:47] <n3uron_> click on user accounts
[17:47] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: there are plenty of other Linux distros to choose from
[17:47] <kaipreshaw> done that
[17:48] <ciwolsey> But it's the same problem with them all.
[17:48] <n3uron_> it says "automatic login" with a slider
[17:48] <Guest15276> Going down for a restart then :(
[17:48] <n3uron_> turn it off
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: and what is the issue?
[17:48] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, no its the kde login page i want the uinty one back
[17:49] <ciwolsey> My current issue is installing the latest ATI drivers.
[17:49] <aman_> hey guys can anyone tell me how can i execute a command in a script? i am trying to execute "cat $file | wc -l"..
[17:49] <Resistance> kaipreshaw: are you using KDM or GDM?
[17:49] <Resistance> kaipreshaw: if you are using KDM as the default DM it'll only use KDE's login.  If you are using GDM as the default DM, it'll only use GNOME's login.
[17:49] <llutz> aman_: you don't, you want "wc -l $file"
[17:49] <schnuffle> ciwolsey: have you checked https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver ?
[17:49] <ciwolsey> Upon installing ubuntu there are two options for the ATI drivers.. the ones that were available at release, and some more up to date ones.. I've installed twice now... the updated ones dont install
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: which ATi chip do you have?
[17:50] <ciwolsey> No. I'll have a read though.
[17:50] <ciwolsey> HD5850
[17:50] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, EG as i reboot it comes up with that and not the login page that came -useing GDM but think i have changed it to KDM by CMD-
[17:50] <aman_> llutz, yeah thanks :P
[17:50] <ciwolsey> So that would be Cypress
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: if you'd have just stated all this stuff first rather than the pathetic eotional stuff before we'd actually get to support
[17:51] <ciwolsey> I did.. long ago
[17:51] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: and what is the output of: lsb_release -sc
[17:51] <ciwolsey> And waited.. and got frustrated.
[17:52] <ciwolsey> ActionParsnip, its oneiric
[17:52] <kaipreshaw> ciwolsey, Can you stop moaning about ubuntu i love it you cant feel it
[17:52] <ciwolsey> I stopped about 5 minutes ago.
[17:52] <iak> hey.. whats the name of the module a laptop keyboard?
[17:53] <n3uron_> kaipreshaw, im not following - sorry. are you being logged in automaticaly or not?
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Testing/ProprietaryDrivers/Oneiric/VideoDrivers   seems to have been tested...
[17:53] <kaipreshaw> noep
[17:53] <ciwolsey> I can install the driver through Jockey but it's buggy with gnome-shell
[17:54] <n3uron_> ok, there should be a icon that allows you to choose which you want to use.
[17:54] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, im useing kdm and i want to use GDM as this was a fail down to the user
[17:54] <ciwolsey> ActionParsnip, yeah, there is support for it. The problem is the driver that jockey lets you install is outdated, and buggy.
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: what about Unity? What about KDE?
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: are there bugs reported?
[17:55] <ciwolsey> The bug is in ATIs drivers. They know about them and have fixed them in their new drivers (and its these drivers im trying to install)
[17:55] <kaipreshaw> n3uron_, im useing kdm and i want to use GDM as this was a fail down to the user
[17:56] <n3uron_> kaipreshaw, i saw that, give me a second.
[17:57] <ciwolsey> Oh.. you mean the fact the newer drivers in jockey don't install? I've seen it reported all over the place
[17:57] <sivakumar> i am trying to install patch package in ubuntu 9.10 but i am getting the error package is not found and have to get from another resources
[17:58] <bazhang> sivakumar, its end of life
[17:58] <sivakumar> bazhang, then how to install those packages
[17:58] <dak0> new 11.10 Ubuntu is much harder for people like me, who have opend alot of app and things, its just harder to switch..
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> ciwolsey: if you have the installer from the manufacturer site you could run it and install. Personally I don't buy ati. I only buy nvidia
[17:58] <sivakumar> how to install ns 2.27
[17:59] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades sivakumar
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> dak0: how so?
[17:59] <auronandace> sivakumar: why aren't you using a supported ubuntu?
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> sivakumar: what is 'ns'?
[17:59] <ciwolsey> Last time I used linux a lot I had an nvidia card.
[17:59] <dak0> I need to go with my mouse course left of my dekstop
[17:59] <dak0> to appear the panel
[17:59] <sivakumar> auronandace, then which one i have to use
[17:59] <dak0> then click what i want to switch
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> dak0: I use 11.10 and have no panel on the left at all
[17:59] <auronandace> ciwolsey: nvidia cards a definitly better supported
[17:59] <ciwolsey> ATIs package generates .debs, specifically for oneiric, but they fail when I do dpkg -i
[17:59] <dak0> its fukcing harder
[17:59] <sivakumar> ActionParsnip, network simulator
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> dak0: you mean in unity
[17:59] <dak0> Yes
[18:00] <bazhang> dak0, no cursing here
[18:00] <dak0> unity
[18:00] <dak0> that thing.
[18:00] <auronandace> sivakumar: try 10.04 or 11.10
[18:00] <dak0> How can i downgrade to 11.04 ?
[18:00] <Gringoire> Hey people, trying to install a samsung clx2160n, installed samsung unified driver, getting error '/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertosamsungsplc failed'
[18:00] <sivakumar> auronandace, did u tried
[18:00] <kaipreshaw> !language | dak0
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> dak0: you don't have to use unity in oneiric,
[18:00] <auronandace> sivakumar: what?
[18:00] <dak0> I can`t see gnome ( no effects) before i login
[18:01] <sivakumar> auronandace, did to ever tried to install ns 2.27 in 10.10 or 10.04
[18:01] <dak0> so im forced to use that new thing
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> dak0: to downgrade you will need a reinstall, alternatively you can install xfce4, log off, log into the xfce session and have a desktop similar to Gnome2
[18:01] <dak0> on ubuntu
[18:01] <dak0> unitly
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> dak0: you aren't force at all, that's a really ignorant attitude
[18:02] <kaipreshaw> im useing kdm and i want to use GDM as this was a fail down to the user is there a way that i can get back into GDM with out removeing KDE's desktop im runing 11.04 and im suck on trying to get back
[18:02] <ciwolsey> http://pastebin.com/Hu8yjsup   -- These are deb packages supposedly generated specifically for Oneiric , but they fail for some reason
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> dak0: again, no
[18:02] <bazhang> !notunity | dak0
[18:02] <auronandace> sivakumar: no, but we can't support you if you aren't using a supported version of ubuntu
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> dak0: Gnome and even unity are not the only desktops and shells
[18:02] <sivakumar> auronandace, what i have to do then
[18:02] <auronandace> sivakumar: i already told you, install 11.10
[18:02] <dak0> ActionParsnip
[18:03] <dak0> I want the old
[18:03] <bazhang> sivakumar, I told you, twice already, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[18:03] <Gringoire> Any ideas? that file exists on my system
[18:03] <dak0> gnome no effects
[18:03] <dak0> How can i get to it on 11.10 ?
[18:03] <ActionParsnip> dak0: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8850924/Desktop.png  that is my desktop in 11.10, note no unity
[18:03] <kaipreshaw> !gnome | dak0
[18:04] <dak0> Okey guys hello!
[18:04] <dak0> I know whats GNOME
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> dak0: I'd go for xfce
[18:04] <axisys> how do I see all the open broswer sessions by rotating through all of them, one at a time in full window size and select one.. like old alt+tab behavior ?
[18:04] <dak0> i just want to use it
[18:04] <dak0> on 11.10
[18:04] <dak0> Beacus theres only Ubuntu and Ubuntu 2D before i login!
[18:04] <dak0> Do you guys get it ?
[18:04] <kaipreshaw> dak0 im on gnome type this into termial then  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> dak0: there is this too: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-make-ubuntu-11-10-look-and-feel-like-gnome-2/
[18:04] <trism> kaipreshaw: try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm; it should pop up a screen asking you to select a display manager
[18:05] <dak0> Thank you ActionParsnip, thats what i was looking for.
[18:05] <red2011> giù al nord
[18:05] <dak0> Best Regards.
[18:05] <ActionParsnip> dak0: if you install xfce4 you can use xfce and it will look and feel of Gnome2
[18:05] <red2011> giù al sud
[18:06] <dak0> Once one guy told me to do sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[18:06] <dak0> and alot of unfamiliar programs
[18:06] <dak0> appeared
[18:06] <ciwolsey> Ok I found the problem. The guide I was following gets you to do something like: dpkg -i fglrx-*
[18:06] <dak0> and my nvidia control panel got bugged
[18:06] <dak0> so i dont want to experiment
[18:06] <ciwolsey> Basically takes them in alphabetical order, which isn't good since they have dependencies on each other
[18:07] <FesterJester> Question about setting up a headless ubuntu setup. Soon as I setup login through a serial port, login no longer shows on screen. Why?

[18:13] <trism> kaipreshaw: oh, just reinstall gdm
[18:13] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  is this a public server >? or private ?
[18:13] <trism> kaipreshaw: it should ask you the question after: sudo apt-get install gdm;
[18:13] <qt-dsa> public server
[18:13] <bobweaver> qt-dsa: dhcp or static ?
[18:13] <qt-dsa> static ip
[18:13] <bobweaver> cool

[18:14] <qt-dsa> i feel so upset with this ubuntu, its so hard to setup mail server :( wish it was simple

[18:15] <worre> Does anyone know how to install windows xp from Ubuntu?
[18:15] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  is it the Courier-POP3-SSL: that is failing ?
[18:15] <kaipreshaw> trism, i got KDM
[18:15] <Alan_N> I have a laptop (Gateway M675) I need drivers for the wifi. Where can I find them?
[18:15] <trism> kaipreshaw: I understand that, but you said you wanted to use gdm instead
[18:16] <qt-dsa> bobweaver im really not sure what im doing :(
[18:16] <bobweaver> that is ok
[18:16] <ssta> Alan_N: depends what card it is.

[18:17] <auronandace> worre: in a vm?
[18:17] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  ahh
[18:17] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  take and make a virtual server
[18:17] <worre> preferably via qemu
[18:17] <sae> ciao
[18:17] <trism> kaipreshaw: although, on oneiric, the default is actually lightdm, so if you want to go back to what you had in a default install, it would be lightdm instead
[18:17] <bobweaver> on virtual box or somthing 1st
[18:17] <qt-dsa> bob im doing it on a vps
[18:17] <EnigmaLinux> FesterJester: what's the issue?
[18:17] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  cool
[18:17] <auronandace> worre: i'd recomend virtualbox, not sure how well qemu handles windows
[18:18] <kaipreshaw> trism how do i do it
[18:18] <worre> i want to install xp on real partition
[18:18] <qt-dsa> :( not cool so hard to setup email server

[18:18] <Alan_N> ssta, I have no hard drive on this so Im loading Ubuntu 10 onto a flash drive.
[18:18] <trism> kaipreshaw: sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm; if lightdm is still installed
[18:18] <schnuffle> qt-dsa:  Email server is easy to setup. Look for a good tutorial
[18:19] <qt-dsa> schnuffle im sorry but that is not true i try many :(
[18:19] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: Or use citadel which is all in one with a webgui for admin
[18:19] <FesterJester> EnigmaLinux: I have it setup to login via serial port, but soon as I do that. I cannot login physically until I press CTRL+ALT+F1
[18:19] <Shockolate> Still looking for help with installing ubuntu. Crashes when attempting to load Nvidia driver
[18:19] <qt-dsa> citadel ? what is that
[18:19] <qt-dsa> script ?
[18:19] <bobweaver> qt-dsa: could we see a   :     cat /etc/courier/imapd.cnf
[18:19] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay then, do you have any preferences I'll search you a good tutorial for it
[18:19] <brimestone> hey guys, anyone here know how i can increase the Session life on my Apache server?
[18:19] <auronandace> worre: why can't you just use the xp install cd directly?
[18:19] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: Citadel is a Mailserver
[18:20] <qt-dsa> schnuffle is it each to setup ?
[18:20] <FesterJester> EnigmaLinux: Login throu serial port works fine and so does VNCServer
[18:20] <worre> auronandace: my cd drive broke today
[18:20] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: that's it. As it contains everything you need. It's very easy to setup
[18:20] <worre> and i tried all usb methods
[18:20] <qt-dsa> ok what do i do first with Citadel ?
[18:20] <auronandace> worre: oh
[18:20] <qt-dsa> apt-get install Citadel ?
[18:20] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: yep, a moment. I'll check
[18:21] <EnigmaLinux> FesterJester so the issue is just having to press CTRL+ALT+F1
[18:21] <worre> I'll try if I can figure how to use virtualbox

[18:22] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: which nvidia GPU do you have?
[18:22] <trism> kaipreshaw: what is your actual problem?
[18:22] <bazhang> countley, you want to convert as well?
[18:22] <countley> on an ubuntu box
[18:23] <crazyharry> does ac/adapter powered USB 2.0 hub perform faster than the regular usb 2.0 thats without ac power connected to the pc ?

[18:23] <reber> hi. I'm looking for a good and **fast** usb scanner (eventually a3 one) debian compatible. Any advices ?
[18:23] <Shockolate> the hardware ID points to my nvidia driver
[18:23] <bazhang> countley, as in playable on an external dvd Player?
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: you may want the xorg edgers update ppa (less fresh)
[18:23] <kaipreshaw> trism i now cant logout
[18:23] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: http://www.citadel.org/doku.php/installation:start . To install citadel you do: sudo apt-get install citadel-suite
[18:23] <FesterJester> EnigmaLinux: before I setup serial port login, it came upto the tty1 login screen
[18:23] <qt-dsa> schnuffle, what should i pick for configure citadel-server ?
[18:24] <Shockolate> ActionParsnip : I'm a brand new user, ubuntu isn't installed on my computer
[18:24] <qt-dsa>  internet or host
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: sudo add-apt-repository  i now cant logout
[18:24] <FesterJester> EnigmaLinux: going to stay in the private chat this time
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: oops,
[18:24] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: What do you mean?
[18:24] <qt-dsa> its asking me for user authentication mode
[18:24] <crazyharry> does ac/adapter powered USB 2.0 hub perform faster than the regular usb 2.0 thats without ac power connected to the pc ?
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[18:24] <qt-dsa> i think i should pick host auth
[18:24] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: there should be internal. Use internal
[18:24] <bazhang> crazyharry, ##hardware for that
[18:25] <qt-dsa> ok
[18:25]  * BassyBekx slaps Bassy around a bit with a large trout
[18:25] <qt-dsa> i see it

[18:25] <crazyharry> ok bazhang
[18:25] <Bassy> :-P

[18:26] <kalimojo> hi
[18:27] <qt-dsa> schnuffle its installing now
[18:27] <kalimojo> i need help on image editing sw
[18:27] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: fine :)
[18:27] <qt-dsa> when its completed i go into site.com:2000
[18:27] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: yes
[18:27] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: if site.com is your domain
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> Shockolate: its a terminal command. You have a very recent nvidia chip so you will need the 290 driver
[18:28] <qt-dsa> its not lol its seeder.us
[18:28] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  change your port after words
[18:28] <qt-dsa> yes im right there
[18:28] <qt-dsa> i already have apache2 running on port 80
[18:28] <qt-dsa> i change to 81 ?
[18:28] <bobweaver> NO
[18:29] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: no
[18:29] <qt-dsa> leave it on port 80 ?
[18:29] <countley> help
[18:29] <bobweaver> qt-dsa:  Yes
[18:29] <bazhang> countley, need to convert it?
[18:29] <Shockolate> ActionParsnip : I understand that its a terminal command. Ubuntu is not installed on my computer because install disc crashes. How can I install the 290 driver (i have it downloaded, the .run file)
[18:29] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: first get it up and running, afterwards you can think about how you want to access it
[18:29] <bobweaver> I was talking about the mail server port 2000
[18:29] <bazhang> countley, try devede, then burn it
[18:29] <schnuffle> bobweaver: it's the admin gui
[18:29] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> but i have apache2 on port 80 already :O
[18:30] <qt-dsa> its saying select the port which the plain http webcit server should listen on
[18:30] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: by default citadel runs on port 2000
[18:30] <bazhang> Shockolate, you need ubuntu installed to put the driver on there
[18:30] <qt-dsa> it says here webcit http port 80
[18:30] <qt-dsa> what should i do ?
[18:30] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: take 2000 it's okay for the beginning and you can change it later on
[18:30] <qt-dsa> click ok ?
[18:30] <Shockolate> bazhang, ubuntu won't install. install disc crashes.
[18:30] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: change the port to 2000 or something which is free
[18:30] <bazhang> Shockolate, md5 the iso then
[18:31] <qt-dsa> ok 8080 good enough ?
[18:31] <Shockolate> bazhang : did that, it checks out.
[18:31] <worre> Ok, so now i got this VirtualBox installed and figured out how to mount my Winxp install image
[18:31] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: 8080 is fine
[18:31] <bazhang> Shockolate, burn at very low speed, do the disk integrity check
[18:31] <worre> but how i can mount my real hdd?
[18:32] <Shockolate> bazhang, i burned at high speed (i know,)   tried doing disk integrity,  still crashed same reason
[18:32] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> ok i setup at 8080
[18:32] <qt-dsa> and https 443
[18:32] <bazhang> Shockolate, then you need to reburn the disk. try a usb stick with unetbootin if you wish to avoid using cd's
[18:33] <auronandace> worre: i've never transfered from vm to actual harddrive partition, maybe the guys at #virtualbox could help better
[18:33] <qt-dsa> now i see only | ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
[18:33] <qt-dsa>  
[18:33] <bazhang> worre, it's #vbox
[18:33] <auronandace> bazhang: ah, my bad, thanks
[18:33] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: tell me when the install is finished
[18:33] <qt-dsa> its finished now
[18:34] <qt-dsa> im looking at my system powered by citadel
[18:34] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: check if citadel is running and then go to the admin panel
[18:34] <kalimojo> i need help on image editing sw
[18:34] <Squall2> hi, need help @ encrypt a new ubuntu installation , could anyone help ?
[18:34] <Shockolate> bazhang: I tried burning 32bit and 64 bit  onto separate cds   both caused same crash. would lowering speed actually make difference?
[18:34] <Elssha> Is it possible to enable the cube on a netbook, or is that simply asking too much?
[18:34] <Elssha> Acer Aspire One 722
[18:34] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> how to check if its running
[18:34] <Elssha> running (will be) 10.04
[18:35] <qt-dsa> i see something seeder.us:8080 its running
[18:35] <qt-dsa> when i try to login failed
[18:35] <qt-dsa> :O
[18:35] <xangua> Elssha: cube efect is not supported with Unity
[18:35] <Elssha> 10.04; not 11
[18:35] <Elssha> specifically want the older version to NOT have unity >_>
[18:35] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: fail? You mean you can't login?
[18:35] <bazhang> Shockolate, I'd try the usb flash key, to be honest. and yes lower speed can make a difference
[18:35] <Worreh> So, did someone already answer to me(worre)?
[18:35] <qt-dsa> ok when i clicked new user it log me in auto
[18:35] <qt-dsa> so now im inside
[18:36] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: fine, first thing, change the admin password
[18:36] <auronandace> Elssha: you can use 11.10 without touching unity
[18:36] <xangua> Elssha: install compiz setting manager to configure compiz....well you'll have to upgrade some day
[18:36] <qt-dsa> where is it :O
[18:36] <bazhang> !notunity | Elssha
[18:36] <qt-dsa> ok i done it changed password
[18:36] <bazhang> Worreh, yes, try #vbox for that
[18:36] <Squall2> hi, need help @ encrypt a new ubuntu installation , could anyone help ?
[18:37] <qt-dsa> what should i do next im inside citadel
[18:37] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: give me a minute, I'll install it so that I can guid you a bit better
[18:37] <qt-dsa> ok thank you
[18:37] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: Set your domain
[18:37] <bazhang> Squall2, need the alternate cd for that
[18:37] <bazhang> !alternate | Squall2
[18:37] <Squall2> i have
[18:37] <Worreh> Bazhang: ok
[18:37] <bazhang> Squall2, whats the question then
[18:37] <qt-dsa> schnuffle>is it under administrator ?
[18:37] <Elssha> on a netbook, does 11 work better than 10.04?
[18:37] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: just a minute
[18:38] <qt-dsa> ok
[18:38] <Squall2> i want to encrypt a dualboot....so who can i dont usw the whole hdd ?
[18:38] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: I don't have all the setps in mind
[18:38] <Squall2> only the partitions of linux
[18:38] <qt-dsa> er ok i understand
[18:38] <bazhang> Elssha, thats a matter of opinion really. try a live cd and decide
[18:38] <Elssha> live cd for 10.04 won't let me use desktop effects
[18:38] <Elssha> well, live USB
[18:39] <bazhang> Elssha, you can install onto it, but changes will be lost
[18:39] <Elssha> i don't care about the cube itself so much as wanting to be able to cycle through the workspaces and not get stuck at the end (press right on last desktop jumps back to 1st)
[18:40] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> i've added user
[18:40] <Elssha> not sure if there is a way to make that happen without enabling cube and rotate cube
[18:40] <bazhang> Elssha, unity-2d has something like the expose feature of OSX, if thats what you mean
[18:40] <Elssha> don't like that
[18:40] <auronandace> Elssha: you don't need compiz to accomplish that, xfce can do it
[18:40] <bazhang> you need the cube to rotate of course Elssha
[18:41] <rohitjha> need suggestion for a good hosted contact management tool
[18:41] <Elssha> want to just scroll desktops (alt + ctrl >/<); but if i say i have 4 desktops, pressing > 5x will go 1,2,3,4,1 and not stop at 4
[18:41] <Elssha> can unity do something like that?
[18:41] <patrickubuntu> what's the unity version of "killall gnome-panel" for when the panel doesn't show up?
[18:41] <Elssha> because the def in 10.04 just stops at 4 and won't let me cycle
[18:42] <auronandace> Elssha: xfce can scroll through them just fine
[18:42] <Elssha> i'll look that up, thanks!
[18:42] <Elssha> is that for 11.10 or 10.04 (or both)
[18:42] <patrickubuntu> my panels never showed up when I logged in. what terminal command will restart them?
[18:43] <patrickubuntu> *is there a terminal command that will restart them?
[18:43] <bazhang> alt f2 unity --replace do it patrickubuntu ?
[18:43] <patrickubuntu> bazhang: i'll try
[18:44] <patrickubuntu> yes bazhang that worked, thanks!
[18:44] <bobweaver> !panelreset patrickubuntu
[18:45] <patrickubuntu> bazhang: however there's some weirdness still going on
[18:45] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay go to the admin area and set everything as you need it
[18:45] <bazhang> patrickubuntu, what kind of weirdness, please clarify
[18:45] <qt-dsa> im in the admin i think i setup everything
[18:45] <Elssha> which ubuntu uses less processing power (runs better on netbooks) 11 or 10?
[18:46] <patrickubuntu> bazhang: now instead of one terminal window, I have two, and the one I have irssi in doesn't have a top bar for me to drag it around with
[18:46] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: did you setup your domain and has the user POP3/IMAP/SMTP access granted?
[18:46] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: If so you can try to connect to it with a mail client
[18:46] <qt-dsa> i created a user called info
[18:46] <patrickubuntu> bazhang: hmm, by resizing the bottom bar I was able to get it
[18:46] <bazhang> Elssha, that would depend entirely on what you were doing; very hard to determine
[18:47] <patrickubuntu> bazhang: thanks for your assistance!
[18:47] <bazhang> patrickubuntu, you're welcome
[18:47] <qt-dsa> ok i got itt
[18:47] <Elssha> eyecandy without causing lag?
[18:47] <bazhang> Elssha, unity-2d has that
[18:47] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> but why does it say <admin@30006545>  ?
[18:48] <Elssha> guess i'll try that xfce thing plus 11.10 then
[18:48] <Elssha> ^_^ thanks everyone
[18:48] <auronandace> !xubuntu | Elssha
[18:48] <rauls90> ciao
[18:48] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: where does it say that? Could be due to you not having setup your domain
[18:49] <qt-dsa> yes where is it :O
[18:49] <qt-dsa> i not find it
[18:49] <qt-dsa> im here (domains for which this host receives mail)
[18:49] <qt-dsa> Domain names and Internet mail configuration
[18:49] <qt-dsa> i added seeder.us
[18:49] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: and did you added your domain name seed.us?
[18:49] <qt-dsa> seeder.us yes
[18:50] <qt-dsa> Local host aliases
[18:50] <qt-dsa> (domains for which this host receives mail)  seeder.us
[18:50] <SlyUk> Elssha , i used xubunutu on my n130 for a good year plus without any problems. Had some fading / opacity going on and all was ok.
[18:50] <Tellmarch> hello, how does S.M.A.R.T work with ubuntu?
[18:50] <kalimojo> i need help on image editing sw
[18:50] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay, so now when you setup a new user it should get a mail address with a seeder.us domain
[18:50] <bazhang> kalimojo, what sort of image
[18:50] <kalimojo> png
[18:51] <qt-dsa> oh i see im going to test now
[18:51] <bazhang> kalimojo, using shotwell? gimp? imagemagick?
[18:52] <BTaylor927> Erm, I messed up big..
[18:52] <BTaylor927> I was trying unity 5.0, but wanted to downgrade to the native 11.10 version
[18:52] <BTaylor927> So I used ppa-purge
[18:53] <BTaylor927> And now I can't login anymore
[18:53] <BTaylor927> Tried reinstalling unity via recovery mode, but that didn't work :|
[18:53] <auronandace> BTaylor927: you do realise that ppas are unsupported here?
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> BTaylor927: tried unity2D session?
[18:54] <kalimojo> i need to draw a red rectangle on a screen capture. tried gimp with no joy,
[18:54] <BTaylor927> No, I didn't auronandance
[18:54] <tfittsy> would it be difficult to set up an ubuntu server that made http requests from alternating ip addresses?
[18:54] <kalimojo> will try shotwell and imagekick
[18:54] <BTaylor927> ActionParsnip, on the login, when I click the gear above my username the menu which normally shows sessions (I think?) doesn't show anything
[18:54] <BTaylor927> Despite my reinstalling unity from the canonical servers in recovery mode
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> BTaylor927: I'd press CTRL+ALT+F1 and log in there, then use ppa purge. If you get no web connection then use a wired link, may help
[18:56] <BTaylor927> Oh, is the command ctrl+alt+F1 now? I was always used to ctrl+alt+backspace
[18:56] <BTaylor927> Right, I'll give it a try
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> BTaylor927: its a key combo
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> BTaylor927: ctrl+alt+F1 will drop you to TTY1, command line and you can run commands there
[18:58] <kalimojo> shotwell is no use
[18:59] <wyb> 123

[19:03] <Wulong> cristian: click on "Technical details about this PPA"
[19:03] <Cicidia_3301> Also can i change the colour?
[19:03] <JuJuBee> I currently use kubuntu on a server for my classroom. I am contemplating setting up a true server (without GUI). What should I use to do this? ubuntu server or kubuntu alternate? I dont see a kubuntu server version (i expect it is simply ubuntu if no GUI installed)
[19:03] <bazhang> cristian, yes, I am aware, what was the exact error and what command did you give pastebin please
[19:03] <bazhang> Cicidia_3301, no
[19:03] <Cicidia_3301> Why is yours yellow?
[19:03] <bazhang> Cicidia_3301, what irc client do you use currently
[19:04] <cristian> the exact error says "cannot find file" when I run the last command to install handbrake
[19:04] <Cicidia_3301> Backtrack 5
[19:04] <Cicidia_3301> lol
[19:04] <outrage> I have installed the most recent ATI driver via downloading the installation directly from the website and installed it yet when I watch youtube videos the video seems to be running off the processor and not the GPU
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> Cicidia_3301: backtrack isnt supported here
[19:04] <bazhang> Cicidia_3301, try backtrack support as its not supported here, thanks
[19:04] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: has the server running citadel the IP 46.37.162.116?
[19:04] <bazhang> #backtrack-linux Cicidia_3301
[19:04] <dbugger> Hey guys. Ive turned on a VNC on a machine but i need to work out portforwarding on the router. Any idea what port is the default?

[19:05] <cristian> i guess basically is what im asking is how can i properly install the source list entries onto Lubuntu using the terminal

[19:05] <bazhang> Cicidia_3301, this is the support channel, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[19:05] <outrage> Can anyone assist me?
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> cristian: yes, I gave the looong command to do it

[19:08] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: and then restart citadel
[19:08] <kalimojo> will try it
[19:08] <qt-dsa> hmm i think i have everything but not configured
[19:08] <cristian> are you asking for all the output.. seems like lots of info
[19:08] <qt-dsa> i already restart citadel
[19:08] <Pici> !who
[19:08] <outrage> The issue is when I watch 720 or 1080 videos through Windows XP its all smooth and not stutters, here in Ubuntu its like 2 FPS
[19:09] <bazhang> cristian, simply the add repo command you used. thats it
[19:09] <Aressz> Maybe someone can recommend me good video editing software for linux ?
[19:09] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: it's important that citadel runs on port 25 nothing else
[19:09] <meco> !fonts
[19:09] <ssta> Aressz: I like ffmpeg
[19:09] <tute> hello, is there a special livecd image that i need to download if i want to just run ubuntu from the disk, or does the standard disk image allow you to use the livecd feature?
[19:09] <bazhang> Aressz, pitivi avidemux, there are others as well check the software center
[19:10] <schnuffle> tute: the standard DVD is a live DVD

[19:12] <tfittsy> does anyone here have multiple IP addresses setup on their machine?
[19:12] <bazhang> !addppa | cristian

[19:13] <cristian> Package handbrake is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[19:14] <cristian> is only available from another source
[19:14] <cristian> E: Package 'handbrake' has no installation candidate
[19:14] <outrage> Is anyone running an ATI/AMD graphics card on their Ubuntu???
[19:14] <g0bl1n> ActionParsnip, I'm using another ubuntu partition and wifi is ok. When I boot that 11.10, can see all the other wifi networks, but mine
[19:14] <Escherial> meh, does anyone happen to know why my tooltips are black in eclipse as of ubuntu 11.10?
[19:15] <Escherial> (using unity, too, if that matters much)
[19:15] <dddbmt__> Is there a tool that lets me draw a rectangle on the screen and then capture that part of the screen?
[19:15] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> is working
[19:15] <Escherial> i'm sure it's the theme i'm using, but i prefer this theme...i just wish i could change the tooltip background/font color independently of the rest of it
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> cristian: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc
[19:15] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: Your Mail is working?
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> dddbmt__: imagemagick
[19:15] <g0bl1n> Deleted the entries from the network-manager. Checked and the files for each entry were deleted in the /etc/NetworkManager/...
[19:15] <qt-dsa> only sending out, outgoing working
[19:15] <qt-dsa> incoming mail not working
[19:15] <cristian> oneiric
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> dddbmt__: install imagemagick then run:  sleep 10; import ~/imagecap.png
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> dddbmt__: you now have 10 seconds to setup the screen and you can then draw around the area to screen shot
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> cristian: the ppa only supports up to natty
[19:16] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: we have to be a bit more analytic. Tail the mail.log as I said, then send a mail from your google account and paste the output
[19:16] <bitcycle> Hey all.  Is there a tutorial video on how to use the unity toolbar?  I'm primarily a keyboard user (I hate having to use the mouse) and when I press the windows key to find for a command, and then type the command name, I have to press down twice to get to the command itself in order to execute it. What am I doing wrong?
[19:17] <qt-dsa> hmm let me try to find it
[19:17] <cristian> im running latest version of lubuntu, so there isn't a way to install handbrake in my case?
[19:17] <g0bl1n> Weird that all the other wifi networks are displayed. All but mine. And my Android is connected to it :-) damn!
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> cristian: if you run: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install handbrake      it will install
[19:17] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: open a terminal and enter: sduo tail -f /var/log/mail.log
[19:17] <schnuffle> sudo
[19:17] <qt-dsa> ok
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> cristian: try a little patience
[19:18] <dddbmt__> ActionParsnip, that is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
[19:18] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: when you send a mail it should show up in the logs. at least that it failed to accept it
[19:18] <cristian> in attempting that command you suggested now..
[19:18] <qt-dsa> ok i will try it
[19:19] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: my guess is that you still have your old MTA running. so do: sudo /etc/init.d/postfix stop
[19:19] <cristian> i got this when i did the apt get update "Err http://ppa.launchpad.net oneiric/main Sources
[19:19] <cristian>   404  Not Found

[19:20] <qt-dsa> this is the log http://pastebin.com/EPkUDULB
[19:20] <schnuffle> g0bl1n: true, upstart is used. I just have to many servers still running system v init :)
[19:21] <g0bl1n> schnuffle, I sometimes, without thinking go via init.d :-)
[19:21] <cristian> i have gotten the same error when i did the last command that handbrake doesn't have a candidate
[19:21] <StepNjump> I am trying to create a pgp key but can't succeed yet I have plenty of entropy. Anybody familiar with the pgp -kg command here?
[19:21] <ubuntard01> hi guise
[19:21] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: as I thought you have your old MTA running. So we need to stop it first. Do you know which MTA's you installed?
[19:22] <ubuntard01> i've a little issue with my x4500 intel video card resolution
[19:22] <qt-dsa> hmm sorry no idea which ones
[19:22] <qt-dsa> this is new log http://pastebin.com/Um7Kptb3
[19:22] <ubuntard01> ATM im working with a 1080p capable monitor, but this shit cant recognize nothing above 1024x768 wich sucks...
[19:22] <ubuntard01> any sugestion?, it's a fresh install of ubuntu 11.10
[19:23] <auronandace> !language | ubuntard01
[19:23] <qt-dsa> it says " Citadel had trouble on starting up. We couldn't bind all ports you configured to be provided by citadel server. This means, citadel won't be the service provider for a specific service you configured it to. "
[19:23] <pangolin> ubuntard01: Please keep the language clean
[19:23] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay try: sudo service postfix stop
[19:23] <ubuntard01> never again
[19:23] <qt-dsa> yep i done it " sudo service postfix stop "

[19:25] <winterpk66> I'm trying to install OpenCV on ubunto 10.4 but aptitude doesnt seem to find the libcv2.1 as suggested in the help (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenCV).  What am I doing wrong here?
[19:25] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: yes and restart citadel afterwards
[19:25] <bobweaver> here is the guide that I am using http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_-_installation_and_configuration/installing_magento_via_shell_ssh
[19:25] <qt-dsa> ok im going to kill that service and restart cit

[19:25] <meco> http://imagebin.org/196385
[19:25] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: not killing, stop it should be sudo service sendmail stop
[19:25] <qt-dsa> doesnt seem to work
[19:26] <qt-dsa> so i killed the service :O aleady
[19:26] <qt-dsa> about to restart cit

[19:28] <qt-dsa> schnuffle>........................ Its workinggggggggggggg
[19:28] <Oxigin> Try using the new Ubuntu 11.10...it's well connecte and updated with the latest tools you'll ever need
[19:28] <qt-dsa> i got the gmail Email now in cit haha
[19:28] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: you need to disbale the senmail service anyway as otherwise you might get in trouble after each reboot
[19:28] <qt-dsa> great workkkkkk
[19:28] <qt-dsa> yes that goddamm sendmail can go to hell
[19:28] <qt-dsa> do i need sendmail to send outgoing email ?
[19:29] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: so at least two very important things to do: disable sendmail, disable registration
[19:29] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: no you don't need it, citadel comes with its own MTA
[19:29] <qt-dsa> how to disable sendmail
[19:29] <ubuntard01> guise someone can helpme getting 1080p on my x4500 intel video card?
[19:29] <qt-dsa> i already done apt-get autoremove sendmail --purge
[19:30] <ubuntard01> this is a fresh ubuntu install [11.10]
[19:30] <qt-dsa> strange it showed under top process but i killed it now cit is working :D
[19:30] <new_on_ubuntu> guise someone can helpme getting 1080p on my x4500 intel video card?
[19:30] <new_on_ubuntu> this is a fresh ubuntu install [11.10]
[19:31] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: I don'T know the exact name of the packages you need to uninstall. Check with sudo dpkg -l | grep sendmail
[19:31] <qt-dsa> lol guess now the problem
[19:31] <qt-dsa> outgoing mail not workinggggg
[19:31] <qt-dsa> lol i really hate linux so much
[19:31] <qt-dsa> i email myself from cit to gmail not working
[19:32] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: wrong path. What you should hate is your missing knowledge, but lucky you, that can be changed :)
[19:32] <qt-dsa> yes i still hate linux :D
[19:33] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: have you a POP3/IMAP server running?
[19:33] <qt-dsa> i think i cant send outgoing mail due to sendmail being removed ?
[19:33] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: then use exchange mail server and you'll hate Windows even more :)
[19:33] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: no
[19:33] <Oxigin> can sum1 help me with the thunderbird service? i can't get it to run
[19:33] <qt-dsa> i have windows and i look through them :)
[19:33] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: check the mail.log
[19:34] <Oxigin> sum1 help me get a yahoo server setup for thunderbird
[19:34] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: even exchange and AD? If so respects
[19:34] <g0bl1n> schnuffle, I had to use Exchange when on Windows 2000, some 10y ago. Please don't remind me those times :-)
[19:35] <winterpk66> Does anyone know why openCV won't install with aptitude?
[19:35] <schnuffle> g0bl1n: I just need to setup a Windows2008 Exchange AD server and I hate it. It works quite good now but it's hard to find docs and even harder to remember the clicks
[19:36] <hydrox24> winterpk66: what errors does it give you?
[19:37] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: so where are we? If you have installed courier or cyrus or dovecot uninstall them.
, i cant send outgoing mail :O on cit
[19:37] <qt-dsa> none of them installed
[19:37] <infeeeee> Hello i just installed 11.10 and cant recognize my videocard. i downloaded the driver from the nvidia page, but i don't know what to do . can somebody help me?
[19:37] <winterpk66> when I try to do apt-get libcv2.1 it says there is no package avalable

[19:38] <g0bl1n> schnuffle, can it be configured via CLI ?
[19:38] <phixxor> What's the key combination to change tabs in irssi?
[19:38] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: please follow a simple path: Problem occurs. Check the log. Paste it
[19:39] <g0bl1n> ... as if Windows had a good CLI :-)
[19:39] <schnuffle> g0bl1n: i can. there'S the powershell which is a very strong tool but not very obvious
[19:39] <g0bl1n> schnuffle, oh cool
[19:40] <qt-dsa> i get this

[19:40] <new_on_ubuntu> ubunt aint using xorg.conf anymore?
[19:40] <new_on_ubuntu> ubuntu*
[19:40] <Stereocaulon> new_on_ubuntu, alas, no...
[19:40] <meco> How do I check which version on ubuntu I'm running from the console?
[19:40] <Pici> new_on_ubuntu: if it exists, it will be honored.
[19:41] <bazhang> !version | meco
[19:41] <Seryth> No xorg? O.o wut....what's replacing it?
[19:41] <meco> ok
[19:41] <schnuffle> g0bl1n: Most people still think that but the Powershell is a object orientated shell which easyly can cope withe the bash
[19:41] <Pici> Seryth: Thats not what was said.
[19:41] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay, there still another daeomon running.
[19:41] <g0bl1n> schnuffle, wow, is it that good ?
[19:41] <qt-dsa> :O
[19:41] <Seryth> Pici: ?
[19:42] <Pici> Seryth: Ubuntu uses xorg still, but it doesn't require the xorg.conf file to exist.
[19:42] <schnuffle> g0bl1n: Yep, when you get used to it, and I'm not yet
[19:42] <Stereocaulon> Seryth, no xorg.conf != no X.org
[19:42] <phixxor> What does ubuntu use in place of xorg.conf?
[19:42] <g0bl1n> :-)
[19:42] <jwtiyar> i get partial upgrade windows when update manager run , how to remove it?
[19:42] <Seryth> Pici: Ah, yeah, I meant xorg.conf, it was a kinda typo.
[19:42] <Pici> schnuffle, g0bl1n: Perhaps this Windows conversation would be better off discussion elsewhere.
[19:42] <Seryth> Stereocaulon: ^
[19:42] <carbon__> if I wanted to see what module is used for my wireless card. Would I use lsmod or modprob.  I have tried both but it's not very descriptive

[19:43] <qt-dsa> so now i autoremove --purge it all
[19:43] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: yes, on a server it's installed by default
[19:43] <LordAS> how install framewock2 for ubuntu?
[19:44] <g0bl1n> Pici, the conversation had "bash" string included so I guess we were not that off topic. It was CLI :-)
[19:44] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: and paste a netstat -tulpen
[19:44] <schnuffle> Pici: right
[19:45] <qt-dsa> tulpen ifno http://pastebin.com/Jybcurhv
[19:46] <qt-dsa> now it seems cit is Down cant access it
[19:46] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay now restart citadel and repaste netstat -tulpen
[19:46] <qt-dsa> how to restart it ?
[19:47] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: sudo /etc/init.d/citadel restart
[19:47] <qt-dsa> oh like apache2 :D
[19:47] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: or if it's already upstart enabled: sudo service citadel restart
[19:48] <phixxor_> in irssi, how do you change tabs?
[19:48] <qt-dsa> not working root@30006545:~# sudo service citadel restart
[19:48] <qt-dsa> citadel: unrecognized service
[19:48] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: it's the same for all the services running
[19:48] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: and sudo /etc/init.d/citadel restart?
[19:48] <qt-dsa> yeaa
[19:48] <qt-dsa> not working
[19:49] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: can you a bit more precise please?
[19:49] <schnuffle> be
[19:49] <qt-dsa> typing  /etc/init.d/citadel restart
[19:49] <qt-dsa> will not start
[19:49] <LordAS> how install framework2 for ubuntu?
[19:49] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: with sudo?
[19:49] <qt-dsa> im using root
[19:50] <phixxor_> does anyone here use irssi? And can tell me how to change tabs?
[19:50] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: paste dpkg -l | grep citadel
[19:50] <qt-dsa> ok
[19:50] <useful__idiot> phixxor_: alt + 0-9
[19:50] <phixxor_> useful__idiot: thanks :)
[19:50] <useful__idiot> just figured it out 2 min ago myself :P
[19:50] <qt-dsa> root@30006545:~# paste dpkg --l | grep citadel
[19:50] <qt-dsa> paste: unrecognized option '--l'
[19:50] <qt-dsa> Try `paste --help' for more information.
[19:50] <qt-dsa> not workling it seems
[19:51] <chmac> Is there a "default" rss distiller (what a great word eh!) in ubuntu?
[19:51] <phixxor_> useful__idiot: i quit irssi a few times by accident trying ctrl-stuff
[19:51] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: it's -l not --l and l is a small L
[19:51] <qt-dsa> schnuffle> i think i will reload the os, it takes just 1 mint to do i will get brand new ubuntu 11.04
[19:51] <qt-dsa> ops
[19:52] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: that won't help because if you don't know why it fails it will happen again.
[19:52] <qt-dsa> but i followed like 10 different tutorials how to setup it, i think lts of stuff is misconfigured and mesed up
[19:52] <qt-dsa> :(
[19:52] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: Running a mail server needs some knowledge, because if you don't have it it'S like running a around with a gun in the streets
[19:53] <qt-dsa> i want to install CIT on fresh ubuntu
[19:53] <LordAS> ktos instalowal framewoki?
[19:53] <qt-dsa> i think i already installed to many programs that conflict with it
[19:53] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: okay the use a clean install but nevertheless you need to get at least the basic knowledge about the internet standards used to send mail
[19:54] <qt-dsa> i try to read
[19:54] <schnuffle> qt-dsa: I switch my PC be back in a minute
[19:54] <qt-dsa> ok

[20:00] <K350> /c/c
[20:00] <Nach0z> K350: I have NO IDEA how to fix that. you should try rebooting, doing sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade, then restarting Tilda
[20:01] <trism> traskers: what is: apt-cache policy gnome-shell;
[20:02] <traskers> trism, http://justpaste.it/pgc
[20:02] <traskers> trism, do you think it's the repositories that haven't been updated?
[20:03] <K350> Nach0z: Ah, I'l try that, thanks!:)
[20:04] <trism> traskers: the package in proposed is very recent, and they did some changes to the packaging, may still be buggy, I would drop the proposed repo for the moment and install from universe
[20:05] <denubis> A clean install of ocelot fails to recognize the onboard intel g31 graphics card. Looking at the system info panel in unity, it says "unknown" for graphics.

[20:06] <traskers> trism, okay, thanks for the suggestion!
[20:08] <DJango_Novice> hi
[20:08] <joakimk> I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 on a Dell E6520. I need some help disabling tap-to-click on the touchpad...
[20:08] <tlhonmey> joakimk: It should just be a checkbox in the touchpad tab of the mouse configurator...
[20:09] <DJango_Novice> Im new to ubuntu and need to create a cron job for svn checkout.. any idea??
[20:09] <ekaleido> you could edit /etc/crontab?
[20:09] <joakimk> but the "Mouse and Touchpad" thing under System Settings shows no touch pad related things...
[20:09] <joakimk> strangely
[20:09] <Pici> DJango_Novice: Write your script, add it to your user's crontab, you're done.
[20:10] <joakimk> tlhonmey: I have only the "Mouse" pane
[20:10] <kirkmdsh> .xchat2/budus.so
[20:10] <tlhonmey> joakimk: Well now that's a problem...  Let me think a moment...
[20:10] <joakimk> :)
[20:13] <denubis> ah, apparently I don't have mesa-utils on the system
[20:13] <mintman> hello want to install cinnamon, but I get broken package
[20:14] <kad_> hello please help i am living in nightmare i got HP G6, when ubuntu boot there's black screen :( how i can fix it
[20:14] <tlhonmey> joakimk: The only thing I can think of is to make sure they synaptics touchpad drivers are installed.
[20:14] <joakimk> I presume they are not. Can I do this via apt-get?
[20:15] <schnuffle> kad_: is it a G6 HP server? which modell and what means black? Gave you X installed?
[20:15] <jschall> i have a gui apt package manager (muon) that was running an update and got stuck on setting up openjdk. I assume it's waiting for me to accept a license, but it is not displaying a dialog. how can i get it to keep going?
[20:15] <kad_> schnuffle,  no laptop HP Pavilion G6, i have installed ubuntu 11.10 when boot it give black screen ... i remove lightdm and install gdm same issues...
[20:16] <kad_> schnuffle, i did update also and installed new kernel same issue :(
[20:16] <synamik_> xddc list
[20:16] <schnuffle> kad_: I think it'sdue to missing graphic driver, what graphic card is in the laptop
[20:16] <Ivan_newbie> hello
[20:16] <kad_> schnuffle, can i know using lspci ?
[20:16] <schnuffle> kad_: yes
[20:17] <kad_> schnuffle, ATI
[20:17] <schnuffle> kad_: a bit more precise?
[20:17] <kad_> schnuffle, AMD Radeon HD 6470M
[20:18] <schnuffle> kad_: have you installed the ATI driver?
[20:18] <kad_> schnuffle, no how ? i can only access CLI
[20:18] <schnuffle> kad_: what happens when you see the black screen and you hit Ctrl-ALT+F1
[20:19] <kad_> schnuffle, go into tty terminal
[20:19] <schnuffle> kad_: so your driver seems to fail
[20:19] <StepNjump> Hi guys, I did a ./configure and make for package curl-7.20.0.tar.gz. After doing that, I did a dpkg -l curl* and nothing comes up. Any other way to find out whether it installed properly please?
[20:20] <kad_> schnuffle, how i can fix it!! why ubuntu still have missing drivers :(
[20:20] <codepal> Hi, anybody know of a ubuntu distro aimed at older people?
[20:20] <dak0> lol
[20:20] <dak0> Just Ubuntu
[20:21] <_Marcus> How do I change the permissons of a file to "-rwxrwxr-x"
[20:21] <scruff> chmod 776
[20:21] <mintman> codepal: never heard this idea.. Do you mean a handycap such as eyesight?
[20:21] <schnuffle> kad_: to install the ATI drivers: sudo apt-get install fglrx
[20:21] <tlhonmey> StepNjump: usually you have to specifically tell it to install with "make install."  Lots of things don't build deb packages by default.  Personally I tend to use checkinstall for such things.  It will create a deb package so you can remove the thing easily later.
[20:22] <StepNjump> yes tlhonmey next time I should use checkinstall.. you are right. Ok make install.. no I just did make so maybe it never installed... ok thanks a lot
[20:22] <lukescharf> Is anyone else seeing the gnome-shell in Oneiric-Proposed beind held back because of unsatisfied dependencies in a bunch of packages (flash, Acrobat, libasound, libavahi, etc)?
[20:22] <schnuffle> kad_: its the package fglrx-driver
[20:22] <meco> I can't get tor to work. The blue bar showing Loading network status halts halfway. Any suggestions?
[20:22] <codepal> mintman, no I mean extra progs for accessibility & things like 1 click skype install....
[20:23] <tlhonmey> StepNjump: if you just did make, then it's time to use checkinstall on it.
[20:23] <codepal> mintman, easy peasy setup for people with less computer fu
[20:23] <tlhonmey> StepNjump: checkinstall is in the repository, but not installed by default.
[20:24] <mintman> codepal:  U mean Windows enivorment over the Linux distro. Best I can recommend is Linux MInt.

[20:27] <Ivan_newbie> how do i get beautifull women to sleep with me?
[20:27] <kad_> schnuffle, thx worked
[20:27] <davor_> Thats quite easy
[20:27] <pangolin> Ivan_newbie: this is a Ubuntu support channel, not bar.
[20:28] <schnuffle> kad_: your welcome
[20:28] <Ivan_newbie> I'm sorry, it won't happen again :)
[20:28] <davor_> I want to instal driver for realtek driver on acer aspire 5542 and setup 5.1 sound
[20:28] <davor_> ?
[20:29] <schnuffle> davor_: which realtek driver?
[20:30] <davor_> What do you mean whit that "wich"?
[20:30] <davor_> wait
[20:31] <N_mag> join #xoom
[20:32] <joakimk> The touchpad's tap-to-click is so sensitive, it responds to my palm moving across the keys, moving the cursor around while I'm typing :-( Driving me nuts!

[20:32] <davor_> realtek wich i downloaded from theirs site
[20:32] <SlyUk> whats the command to load that hardware scanner thing to find propriety drivers etc
[20:33] <hadees> If I wanted to store data across 2 disks and make them look like one disk would I use lvm for that or something else? it has been a while since I've had to do this in linux.
[20:34] <hadees> also for future reference what is the best way to do something like raid6 for a file server? Should I use zfs or something?
[20:34] <davor_> i enebled 6 chanels in config file but it doesnt work
[20:35] <schnuffle> hadees: best is a hardware raid
[20:35] <hadees> schnuffle: i actually have hardware raid but i'm worried that if the card dies i have to buy the same card to replace it
[20:35] <hadees> and this is just a home media server
[20:36] <hadees> plus i don't think there are hardware raid 6 cards yet are there?
[20:36] <kristopolous> does anyone have any experience with ldap on modern ubuntu or no why all the documentation continually refers to a file that ubuntu has decided to discard?
[20:36] <schnuffle> hadees: and the level depends on what you need. For home server I use Raid 1
[20:36] <SaYaNs> will compiz works with intel graphics...tried in ubuntu 11.04 and is not working.. now im using 11.10
[20:37] <hadees> schnuffle: I want raid 6 because most of the stuff i'm storing on here I can replace, the stuff i can't replace is going to a backup server
[20:37] <flavor32> would a home media server need any raid at all?
[20:37] <schnuffle> hadees: for speed ( virtualization) RAID10 was faster then RAID5
[20:38] <hadees> flavor32: well it is more then a media server but mainly because raid 6 is worth the extra cost for the headache loosing everything would cause
[20:38] <schnuffle> hadees: then use RAID6 if you want to use two disks as on it's RAID0
[20:38] <tlhonmey> SaYaNs: I've had it work on some Intel Graphics, and not on others.  Tends to eat a lot of your CPU when it does work.
[20:39] <schnuffle> ome
[20:39] <hadees> schnuffle: i want raid6 so i can loose two disks and still be good
[20:39] <DJones> SaYaNs: It works for me using Intel integrated graphics
[20:39] <OerHeks> flavor32, mediaserver reading and writing simoultaniously, i would prefer raid
[20:39] <schnuffle> hadees: but you can use LVM as well
[20:40] <hadees> schnuffle: anyone i'm kind of in a crappy place, hard drive prices are out of control but my raid5 array i have now is dying so i'm buying just enough disks to hold what i have with out raid then when the prices drop i'm going to rebuild my raid server
[20:40] <hadees> *anyway
[20:40] <DummyMode> hi
[20:40] <Ivan_newbie> @schnuffle can you help me?
[20:40] <synod32> hi
[20:40] <hadees> it is a bit risky but i don't have a lot of choices
[20:40] <synod32> yes
[20:41] <schnuffle> hadees: difference: RAID0 diskfail leads to lost data. LVM not sure if a faile disk leads to all the data lost
[20:41] <Ivan_newbie> How to install realtek 5.1 audio drivers ?
[20:42] <synod32> downlaod from realtek and configure the source
[20:42] <Lok> Hello Everybody ... can anybody tell me whether I can access the mediatomb server via nautilus or rhythmbox? I am currently running oneiric
[20:42] <SaYaNs> Hope it wont crush  this time.... Had to reset unity the last time i use compiz in 11.04
[20:42] <Ivan_newbie> i am a bit new here, can you help me on how to configure the source?
[20:43] <guntbert> kristopolous: about which file are you talking? maybe you get better answers in #ubuntu-server
[20:44] <kad_> schnuffle, sorry last question when boot it doesn't show the login Ubuntu only if i do: service lightdm start it works!! how i can make the service start automatic!

[20:46] <flavor32> Ivan, does alsa detect your sound?
[20:46] <schnuffle> kad_: what happens when you enter init 5 instaed of starting lightdm?
[20:46] <Ivan_newbie> yes, but it do5.1send detect
[20:46] <Ivan_newbie> yes, but it dosent detect 5.1*
[20:47] <kad_> schnuffle, worked i follow this http://askubuntu.com/questions/74551/lightdm-not-starting-on-boot Thanks :)
[20:47] <flavor32> which realtek chipset do you have?
[20:47] <Ivan_newbie> flavor32, AMD
[20:48] <flavor32> Alc650, Alc850, etc etc
[20:49] <Ivan_newbie> should i install some of that allongside with alsa?
[20:49] <Denubis> I just installed mesa-utils to make 11.10 recognize my onboard graphics. How do I get ubuntu to reconfigure its graphics such that the colour depth and refresh rate reflect the new use of the graphics card?
[20:50] <DJango_Novice> hi
[20:50] <Seryth> Where do I go to remove the trash icon from my desktop? I've checked gconf-editor, but I can't see any entry for Thunar. I'm using ubuntu 11.10 with xfce....
[20:51] <DJango_Novice> Im trying to run a cron job for svn update but its not working except i recieved a mail in /var/mail says "sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified"
[20:51] <entel> ive heard its a bad idea to set roots shell to bash, can anyone explain why?
[20:52] <DJango_Novice> an idea??
[20:52] <zondaX> hello everybody
[20:52] <artichoku> howdi folks
[20:52] <DJango_Novice> Im new to linux having this problem
[20:52] <artichoku> what's up django
[20:53] <schnuffle> entel: because if you have /usr as seperate partitions and you run into problems you can't login anymore
[20:53] <artichoku> I missed yur problem
[20:53] <flavor32> Ivan, it's strange because the alsa drivers which detected your soundcard should also support it's 5.1 functions
[20:53] <DJango_Novice> artichoku: Im trying to create a cron job for svn update
[20:53] <artichoku> ooooo
[20:54] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: sudo asks for a password and nobody gives it
[20:54] <DJango_Novice> artichoku: its giving me this error  "sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified"
[20:54] <guntbert> Seryth: are you certain that thunar manages the desktop? else use
[20:54] <Ivan_newbie> Allongside with alsa i have pusle audio, should i try reinstaling alsa and delete PULSE?
[20:54] <artichoku> and yur running ubuntu?
[20:54] <Seryth> DJango_Novice: Can you write a .sh file instead, and add a shell command?
[20:54] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: then what am i suppose to do
[20:54] <guntbert> Seryth: else try apps/nautilus/desktop
[20:54] <glacia> Hello again, I have a Motion Computing LE1600 tablet. The current problems I am running into is my audio output is not wanting to work (the mic works but not the speakerssfsd
[20:54] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: under which user runs the cron job? Why not run it as the user it has to run under?
[20:54] <DJango_Novice> im new to linux and not very good with permissions stuff
[20:55] <DJango_Novice> im running it under my user
[20:55] <sbalmos> Is there any documentation or writeup about what policy file to change in PolicyKit to allow software installs/updates over a remote (NX) session?
[20:55] <flavor32> Ivan, you could try I suppose. It might work, and if it didn't you only lose some effort
[20:55] <Seryth> guntbert: I found it out via DDG. I'm definitely using Thunar. It was in the xfce desktop settings; I'd only looked in appearence and gconf editor.
[20:55] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Does the script needs any special rights e.g. does it need root rights?
[20:55] <glacia> ignore that post... dumb keyboard is acting up will repost in a minute
[20:55] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: even i try svn update it says permission denied
[20:56] <guntbert> !yay | Seryth
[20:56] <Ivan_newbie> flavor32, thank you for your help :)
[20:56] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: dont know wht I need to do to create a cron job
[20:56] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: okay who checked out the repository and where is it?
[20:56] <Seryth> guntbert: Hehe :)
[20:56] <artichoku> django try your command using -t
[20:56] <DJango_Novice> schn its on github
[20:56] <guntbert> !cron | DJango_Novice
[20:57] <artichoku> that will force it to allocate with a tty
[20:57] <Seryth> DJango_Novice: Why use SVN if it's on github? Use git!
[20:57] <Seryth> :)
[20:57] <guntbert> !tab | artichoku
[20:57] <DJango_Novice> the thing is im expermienting stuff with cron job
[20:57] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: so you do a git clone http://url?  and that fails?
[20:57] <entel> schnuffle: is that the only reason?
[20:57] <artichoku> ty gun, but I'm on a tablet. I have no tab key
[20:57] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: the reason is i need to do this in the office as soon as i get thr
[20:58] <glacia>  Hello again, I have a Motion Computing LE1600 tablet. The current problems I am running into is my audio output is not wanting to work (the mic works but not the speakers),the other problem i have is that when i rotate the monitor the mouse/stylus (wacom) does not rotate with it. I cant locate the drivers, i have been searching for over two weeks now. If anyone has the time to assist me I would greatly appreciate it.
[20:58] <schnuffle> entel: as far as I know. You can move bash to /sbin to sovle that problem
[20:58] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: and I dnt have acces to it at the moment
[20:58] <artichoku> django_novice add -t to your command
[20:58] <DJango_Novice> so the only repositpory available is github
[20:58] <DJango_Novice> artichoku: where in coomand
[20:58] <DJango_Novice> lemme paste my command here
[20:59] <artichoku> at the beginning end doesn't really matter
[20:59] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Paste your cronjob
[20:59] <punxtar> Hhheeellloooowwww
[20:59] <DJango_Novice>  43 1 * * * (cd /home/test1/hp.git; sudo svn update)
[20:59] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: use pastebin
[20:59] <DJango_Novice> k wait
[20:59] <artichoku> so do sudo -t svn update
[21:00] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Does the user have the right to run svn without giving a password?
[21:00] <geirha> DJango_Novice: The parenthesis are not needed, but you want && instead of ; there
[21:00] <DJango_Novice> http://dpaste.org/88kOj/
[21:00] <DJango_Novice> k
[21:01] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: what happens if you run sudo svn update? Does it ask for a password? If so the cronjob won't run
[21:01] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: yes at command line it does ask for pwd
[21:02] <yumbo> I have a lvm2 volume with an ext4 partition in it, is there a way I can resize the partition and thus the volume? (using lvresize gives me a warning, which I'm not sure of what it means)
[21:02] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Anyway isn't it better to correct the owner of the files and not to need sudo?
[21:02] <artichoku> change to cd /blah && sudo -t svn update
[21:02] <DJango_Novice> artichoku: let me try that
[21:03] <Denubis> How can I get 11.10 to generate an Xconf file?
[21:03] <Denubis> er, xorg.conf
[21:03] <glacia> and if no one knows could you point me in the direction of someone(s) that could help? and dont say google
[21:03] <guntbert> yumbo: do you want to increase or to shrink?
[21:03] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: do sudo chown -R test1 /home/test1/hp.git
[21:03] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: I dont know how to change the owner since I have created the directory and im the owner of github repo
[21:03] <yumbo> guntbert, to shrink
[21:03] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: then you don't need sudo, just run svn update
[21:04] <guntbert> yumbo: in that case: step 1) shrink the file system             step 2) shrink the volume                 it cannot be mounted when you do that
[21:05] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: new cron job will execute in 2 minutes... lets see if that works
[21:05] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: You can't use a command in a cron job that needs input without providing it
[21:05] <Bassy> okay just installed Ubuntu 11.10 .. i need some cool stuff to download onto it and install .. any suggestions or links ?
[21:05] <yumbo> guntbert, thank you, do you know how I can shrink the filesystem (gparted only shows lvm2, not the ext4 that's in it) ?
[21:06] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: I know but what am i suppose to do ... Im not very good with permissions and ownership
[21:06] <schnuffle> Bassy:  arduino ide, freecad :)
[21:06] <flavor32> glacia, what happens when you adjust the speaker volume in alsamixer?
[21:06] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: So you should motivate yourself to become better :)
[21:07] <denstark> Hello! Does anyone have any recommendations for doing updates on 90+ machines and keeping things on the same page? I was going to write a perl script but if there is already a good way to do it, it'll save me some time ;)
[21:07] <fitofilo> scribus
[21:07] <glacia> flavor32, that was the first thing i check but i cant remember if i checked it in 11.10 or 10.04lts which is what iam running right now
[21:07] <schnuffle> denstark: puppy maybe?
[21:07] <fitofilo> #scribus
[21:07] <fitofilo> dir
[21:07] <StepNjump> What could prevent a system to generate a pgp key? I've tried numerous applications to no avail. I am puzzled
[21:07] <glacia> flavor32, let me double check
[21:07] <guntbert> yumbo: look at http://en.positon.org/post/Resize-an-ext3-ext4-partition   -- I didn't read that completely but it looks sane
[21:07] <alaing_> how do i disable my firewall from commandline?
[21:08] <denstark> schnuffle: puppy linux?
[21:08] <yumbo> guntbert, thank you, will do that
[21:08] <Nach0z> alaing_: no idea, what firewall is it, and what are you trying to disable it for?
[21:08] <alaing_> how do i disable my firewall from commandline?
[21:08] <schnuffle> denstark: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open_source_configuration_management_software
[21:08] <alaing_> Nach0z: normal builtin in firewall
[21:09] <schnuffle> denstark: i meant puppet
[21:09] <denstark> schnuffle: did you mean puppet?
[21:09] <denstark> aha, ok
[21:09] <alaing_> Nach0z: trying to port forward from my router to my server but no response
[21:09] <denstark> We use puppet here, but not for updates... interesting
[21:09] <Nach0z> alaing_: ubuntu doesn't have a "firewall" set up to block things on it by default that I'm aware of
[21:09] <denstark> well, not for workstation updates
[21:09] <pangolin> !firewall  | alaing_ Nach0z
[21:10] <Nach0z> alaing_: if your application isn't responding even if you have port forwarding set up it probably means you have your server software configured wrong. what server are you trying to create?
[21:10] <guntbert> yumbo: pay special attention to the sentence about backup!!   Good luck :-)
[21:10] <Nach0z> pangolin: ah. when did that get put in?
[21:10] <denstark> thanks!
[21:10] <pangolin> since always
[21:10] <pangolin> like all linux distros
[21:10] <Nach0z> pangolin: really? I've never even heard about it before now. I've just always used iptables :S
[21:11] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: i got mail in /var/mail saying permission denied without sudo
[21:11] <alaing_> Nach0z: web server. it was workign before but I just swapped my router out for a newer one that is running dd-wrt
[21:12] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: -t did not work either as articho said
[21:12] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: again what happens when you execute the commands on the shell?
[21:12] <g105b> About every 2-3 weeks, Unity bails and I'm forced to use Unity2D. I don't tweak CCSM. I don't tweak anything really. This happens on my laptop (which is old-ish) and desktop (which is brand new). Can someone help me troubleshoot why it happens, and how to get back to normal Unity?
[21:12] <Nach0z> alaing_: then your ubuntu isn't the issue, it's your router. if it was working before and the router's the only thing that changed...
[21:12] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: it only works with sudo
[21:12] <DJango_Novice> is there any chance i can run this cron job with root permission
[21:13] <DJango_Novice> without doin sudo
[21:13] <alaing_> router has changed and so has the internal ip ranges
[21:13] <module000> alaing_: if you are running dd-wrt on your newer device - you could tcpdump and/or iptraf and get a better idea of what isn't working the way you expect
[21:13] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: paste ls -la /home/test1/hp.git;whoami
[21:13] <DJango_Novice> k wait

[21:13] <Pumpkin-> asfdjasfa
[21:14] <glacia> flavor32, no sound and everything is checked and un-muted and turned up max
[21:14] <Nach0z> alaing_: then do ifconfig or something, figure out what your new internal IP is, change your static IP setup if you need to. Probably just that your subnet got changed and you didn't set up the new static IP
[21:14] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: http://dpaste.org/43XWe/
[21:14] <flavor32> glacia, did it think you have more than one set of speakers?
[21:14] <alaing_> module000: I'm still new to dd-wrt how do i run those commands?
[21:15] <alaing_> module000: I setup my router so that my server has a static ip and tried port forwarding and using dmz and it will not work
[21:16] <glacia> flavor32, ummm.... i dont think so
[21:16] <alaing_> Nach0z: shoudln't Bcast be my server IP?
[21:17] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: So everything is owned by root. First i would copy everything to your home folder: sudo cp -r /home/test1/hp.git . Then we change the owner: sudo chown -R healthpark:healthpark ~/hp.git
[21:17] <flavor32> glacia, does your tablet have a headphone jack?
[21:17] <glacia> flavor32, At the top it just has one tab "Sigmatec STAC975,59'
[21:17] <glacia> yes
[21:17] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: udo cp -r /home/test1/hp.git /home/healthpark
[21:17] <flavor32> glacia, does it get sound through the headphones?
[21:18] <glacia> testing
[21:18] <glacia> flavor32, no
[21:18] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: let me do that
[21:19] <flavor32> glacia, clearly the sound driver isn't working then
[21:19] <glacia> flavor32, clearly.... i cant find linux drivers for it
[21:19] <misteros> hallo
[21:19] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: so i was suppose to do everything in my own user directory
[21:20] <flavor32> glacia, alsa must think it has a driver for your sound chip, or else it wouldn't have shown you a mixer screen
[21:20] <SCDroid> can someone help me please
[21:20] <guntbert> !ask | SCDroid
[21:21] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Under Linux you can only work in your home directory as normal user, so its good to stick to that
[21:21] <glacia> flavor32, what are my options now?
[21:21] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: k
[21:21] <flavor32> glacia, I'd suggest you ask at the Alsa forum. Because their driver for your sound chip is broken
[21:21] <SCDroid> I have a Proliant ml310 server I am trying to install ubuntu on with no luck so far, any pointers?

[21:22] <glacia> flavor32, and where is that? do they have an IRC
[21:22] <SCDroid> I installed 11.10 ubuntu server and when I boot it takes me to a username command prompt

[21:24] <module000> SCDroid: the server edition doesn't come with the graphical user environment you may be used to, that's normal
[21:24] <flavor32> glacia, it appears there is at least #alsa channel here on freenode
[21:24] <glacia> flavor32, nvm on the site i found it but do you if they have an IRC? and do you know anything about Wacom styluses?
[21:25] <module000> alaing: I can't help you configure dd-wrt(i do not use it), but I can help you with network troubleshooting if you are having sane problems
[21:25] <alaing> SCDroid: ytou can install the gnome desktop over it
[21:25] <SCDroid> how would I do that?
[21:25] <Queeb> join #linux
[21:25] <guntbert> _0bitcount: not here please
[21:25] <auronandace> Queeb: /join ##linux
[21:25] <alaing> module000: ok I tried using the dmz feature and just tried http://myexternalip and it still didn't respond
[21:26] <flavor32> glacia, sorry I don't know about wacom tablets
[21:26] <guntbert> SCDroid: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[21:26] <Queeb> auronandace, yes, I fail at /
[21:26] <glacia> :(
[21:26] <SCDroid> I am very new to this, I am trying to build an app inventor build server
[21:26] <_0bitcount> guntbert, I beg your pardon. I just thought it is important, also for FLOSS advocates.
[21:27] <Myrtti> _0bitcount: this is support only channel tho
[21:27] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Everything is alright?
[21:27] <flavor32> glacia, at least maybe the people on #alsa can help with your sound
[21:27] <module000> alaing: DMZ typical will map your external address directly to a internal address. you're saying your router has your server as the DMZ endpoint but the server is not receiving the external traffic? if that is the case, dd-wrt support will be more useful than ours
[21:28] <glacia> flavor32, true thank you for your help
[21:28] <guntbert> SCDroid: are you following some tutorial?
[21:28] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: yes it seems to be working
[21:28] <schnuffle> fine
[21:28] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: just give me 2 minutes please
[21:29] <three18ti> ok, really need some help.  I've installed ubuntu 11.10 as a HyperV guest.  Initially, the machine discovered the devices as hdaX, after enabling the hv_* drivers I am now seeing both /dev/hda* and /dev/sda* as devices (the same device), here is the output of fdisk http://pastebin.com/ekW1t5aC this is one device...
[21:29] <alaing> module000: thanks i also ran sudo gufw disable just to see if it was the firewall
[21:29] <module000> three18ti: address & mount your devices per /dev/disk/by-uuid and this problem will disapear
[21:30] <alaing> module000: dd-wrt channel seem to think its my ubuntu server
[21:31] <SCDroid> yes
[21:31] <eri_> how can i do to remove some alsamixer app or configuration put the volumen in mute automatic
[21:31] <eri_> ?

[21:33] <three18ti> module000, you mean in /etc/fstab ?
[21:33] <three18ti> module000, is where I should address & mount my drives by uuid?
[21:33] <module000> three18ti: yes

[21:34] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: let me create cron job again .. please give me 2 minutes
[21:35] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: just execute the coammnds on the shell to see if it works. If it does you can test the cron job. I hope you removed the sudo
[21:35] <mg_> How do I set up stuff so that I can choose between unity and awesome wm on login, anyone know? I want to be able to use both
[21:35] <poobert> Ok, I created a new primary partition on my boot disk called /Media and mved the Music,Pictures and Videos directories to it. Now the "Places" menu cannot find these. How should I rectify this?
[21:35] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: ok
[21:35] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: just a moment please
[21:36] <yumbo> poobert, you can make a symbolic link using the following command: ln -s /source/folder /target/folder
[21:36] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: thanks alot man
[21:36] <DJango_Novice> the cron job worked :)
[21:37] <three18ti> module000, ok, think it -was- _before_ the driver HV driver installation.  Never checked after.  Thanks for the tip.  really appreciate it.
[21:37] <yumbo> poobert, in your case you probably want something like "/home/user/Music" for the target folder and "/Media/Music" for the target folder
[21:37] <yumbo> poobert, replace user with your username and replace "/Media/Music" with the folder where you moved your music to
[21:37] <shaopeng> hi
[21:37] <guntbert> yumbo: you used target twice :)
[21:38] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: your welcome
[21:38] <wiel> i installed a new version of sqlite3 but it didnt seem to overwrite the old version.how do i remove the old version?
[21:38] <shaopeng> how did you install it
[21:38] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: you made my life much much easier
[21:38] <wiel> i installed it from the source
[21:38] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: thanks alot
[21:38] <yumbo> poobert, oh, guntbert pointed out a mistake that I made, I meant "/home/user/Music" for the target folder and "/Media/Music" for the source folder
[21:38] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: i will sleep peacefully now :)
[21:39] <wiel> ./configure, make, make install, ldfconfig
[21:39] <shaopeng> ... i think it just replace the old one
[21:39] <shaopeng> o
[21:39] <shaopeng> make
[21:39] <schnuffle> DJango_Novice: Hope you learned something
[21:39] <UbuntuNewby> hey guys! I nee your help... I'm trying to build a bootable USB with windows xp for a macbook pro, but I don't know how...
[21:39] <UbuntuNewby> anyone can help me??
[21:39] <shaopeng> mb you need to check the ./configure files
[21:39] <DJango_Novice> schnuffle: i learned alot thanks :)
[21:40] <flavor32> does xp runs on macbooks at all?
[21:40] <wiel> typing to sqlite3 in the terminal does bring up the new version
[21:40] <UbuntuNewby> I'm not using the mcbook for doing the bootable drive
[21:40] <UbuntuNewby> thats the problem
[21:40] <wiel> but another program Im trying to install is picking up old libraries
[21:40] <UbuntuNewby> I have to use xp...
[21:41] <UbuntuNewby> :S
[21:41] <wiel>  python-apsw depends on libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.7.3); however:  Version of libsqlite3-0 on system is 3.6.22-1.
[21:42] <UbuntuNewby> anyone?
[21:42] <wiel> build, as in write the code?
[21:43] <schnuffle> wiel: create a virtualenv and install everything in the version you need
[21:43] <UbuntuNewby> someone guys...
[21:43] <UbuntuNewby> please...
[21:44] <Slart> !helpme | UbuntuNewby
[21:44] <wiel> =\ man ubuntu is terrible at version control
[21:44] <jamesdoe> for bootable iso- http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[21:44] <flavor32> UbuntuNewby, how is your question linux related?
[21:44] <poobert> yumbo: Thanks, that worked wonderfully. Now my new Media partition can be ejected in the filesystem... but I don't want that. Any thoughts?
[21:44] <wiel> Windows7-USB-DVD-Download-Tool can make windows 7 bootable from a USB
[21:45] <yumbo> poobert, sorry, no I don't know how-to change that
[21:45] <UbuntuNewby> flavor32, I need to do a bootable usb for a macbook, but I can't use the macbook
[21:45] <Slart> UbuntuNewby: creating a bootable usb (with ubuntu) can be done with the "create startup disc" tool .. creating a windows xp bootable usb stick sounds like something you should ask about in ##windows
[21:45] <auronandace> flavor32: i think he wants to create a ubuntu usb stick using xp to boot on mac
[21:45] <UbuntuNewby> Slart, I don't want to create a windows CD!
[21:46] <schnuffle> UbuntuNewby: Under windows you can use yumi to do it. xboot is an alternative
[21:46] <UbuntuNewby> thanks a lot schnnuffle
[21:46] <glacia> following tools installed: gcc, automake, autoconf and make. <---- where do i get those tools? are they in the ubuntu software store?
[21:46] <UbuntuNewby> I'll try that
[21:46] <recon69_lap> i got a bunch of error messages at boot, where can i look them up?
[21:46] <schnuffle> UbuntuNewby: wrong answer I guess I missed the MAcBook part
[21:47] <UbuntuNewby> schnuggle, no worries...
[21:47] <sdfsd> Hi all! Is there anybody here willing to help a Ubuntu beginner
[21:47] <Slart> UbuntuNewby: then I think I misunderstood you..
[21:47] <UbuntuNewby> no worries Slart...
[21:47] <Slart> sdfsd: just ask your question, hopefully someone will answer
[21:47] <sam44> yes sdfsd, what's wrong
[21:47] <sdfsd> yay!
[21:47] <wiel> is it impossible to remove the old version of a program?
[21:48] <sdfsd> I run a damn small linux on a VM, and Ubuntu 11.10 on another VM
[21:48] <flavor32> glacia, those tools general come in the base install
[21:48] <sdfsd> I'm trying to set up a ssh from my Ubuntu to DSL to the interwebs
[21:48] <recon69_lap> something failing on boot and giving lots off error messages, how can i look them up?
[21:48] <Slart> wiel: apt-get doesn't work for you?
[21:48] <UbuntuNewby> Anyway, does someone know how to create a bootable USB for a macbook with a windows XP OS??? (please notice that I can't use the macbook at all...) thanks a lot!
[21:48] <trism> glacia: sudo apt-get install build-essential automake autoconf;
[21:48] <yumbo> sdfsd, sudo apt-get install ssh
[21:48] <wiel> Slart, apt-get will remove the new version
[21:49] <Slart> wiel: how did you install the old version?
[21:49] <sdfsd> yumbo : ssh is installed on both DSL and Ubuntu
[21:49] <yumbo> sdfsd, sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[21:49] <wiel> Slart, with apt-get
[21:49] <trism> wiel: if you install a package manually, the package manager knows nothing about it, so it can't satisfy deps, which is why you get that error
[21:49] <wiel> Slart, i installed the new version from source
[21:49] <yumbo> sdfsd, that's the command to edit the config file for ssh on ubuntu
[21:49] <poobert> anyone know how to mount a partition so it can't be ejected?
[21:49] <Slart> wiel: then I think you'll have to use apt-get to uninstall whatever it wants to install.. then reinstall the source version
[21:50] <metasansana> whats this nonsense of no more sun jdk support form February?
[21:50] <sdfsd> Yumbo : OK, should I run it on DSL or Ubuntu?
[21:50] <yumbo> sdfsd, if you have ssh installed and running, what's it that you want?
[21:50] <metasansana> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2012-January/001554.html
[21:50] <Slart> metasansana: I don't remember if it was a license thing or something else but afaik they are moving to openjdk instead of suns jre
[21:50] <sdfsd> When I connect to my DSL machine on port 9050 (set up for socks5), no problem
[21:51] <yumbo> sdfsd, is it right that you don't have internet access on the Ubuntu machine?
[21:51] <Slart> metasansana: personally I'm guessing it's Oracle being .. well.. Oracle =)
[21:51] <sdfsd> but when I connect on port 8118 for HTTP and SSL, i get timeouts
[21:51] <UbuntuNewby> Does someone know how to create a bootable USB for a macbook with a windows XP OS??? (please notice that I can't use the macbook at all...) thanks a lot!
[21:51] <sdfsd> Yumbo : yes, no internet access
[21:51] <metasansana> Slagwag: do you know if its just a renaming thing?
[21:51] <schnuffle> UbuntuNewby: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=995704
[21:51] <yumbo> sdfsd, you're running both DSL and Ubuntu on the same host? (which OS is the host?)
[21:52] <Slart> metasansana: nope.. if I understood things correctly it's not a renaming thing..
[21:52] <sansnumbers> you guys can help with grub, right?
[21:52] <Slart> sansnumbers: try...
[21:52] <jamesdoe> http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[21:52] <metasansana> Slart: so the offical jdk is going to be OpenJDK
[21:52] <recon69_lap> maybe a simpler question, what directory in dmesg in
[21:52] <metasansana> ?
[21:52] <sansnumbers> how do I permanently set the root partition so I don't have to keep getting redirected to the grub rescue prompt?
[21:52] <sdfsd> Windows 7 is the main OS, running 2 VMs
[21:52] <Slart> metasansana: I think so
[21:52] <metasansana> :(
[21:53] <UbuntuNewby> thanks, schnuffle
[21:53] <yumbo> sansnumbers, did you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 already?
[21:53] <Slart> sansnumbers: sudo update-grub2   might work
[21:53] <schnuffle> UbuntuNewby:  And this should solve the problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7926848
[21:53] <metasansana> Slart: well I hope the fonts on my netbeans won't get ugly again :(
[21:53] <yumbo> sdfsd, do you have internet access on DSL?
[21:53] <glacia> can someone help me understand this command cp ./<kernel version>/wacom_w8001.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/input/touchscreen/
[21:53] <sansnumbers> okay, rebooting...
[21:54] <glacia> it keeps responding with a bash error
[21:54] <sdfsd> yumbo, I'll check, unsure of that
[21:54] <flavor32> what error?
[21:54] <Slart> metasansana: I'm hoping stuff will still work with openjdk.. last time I checked there were some small differences
[21:55] <glacia> no such file or dir but i followed the instructions to the dot at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/linuxwacom/index.php?title=Input-wacom
[21:55] <schnuffle> glacia: substitute  <kernel version> with the version you compiled
[21:55] <metasansana> Slart: The fonts were a major problem for me, for some reason OpenJDK fonts were horrible
[21:56]  * glacia feels dumb
[21:56] <metasansana> Slart: I think its time I start looking into an alternative to mysql as well
[21:56] <yumbo> glacia, to see what version you compiled, I think you can do "ls ./"
[21:56] <Slart> metasansana: it's always good to have alternatives
[21:56] <UbuntuNewby> thanks again, schnuffle
[21:56] <UbuntuNewby> :)
[21:56] <SansNumbers> i got sent to the rescue prompt again.

[22:06] <meerkats> ok sdfsd , ill rephrase: is there any way I can join freenode rooms behind tor without creating or registering an account?
[22:06] <owenll> kermit: system settings -> screen
[22:07] <sdfsd> meerkats : Yes, just run a machine behind tor and use a client like Kvirc
[22:07] <sdfsd> then create a false ident
[22:07] <schnuffle> glacia: what is your basic goal?
[22:07] <glacia> meerkats, if you dont want to use your email for registering use a 10-minute email

[22:09] <Coldfire202> Hello

[22:09] <Coldfire202> Is someone here GREAT with programming?
[22:09] <sdfsd> Meerk : Not sure what a bouncher it, but basically, if your machine communicates only through Tor and that you create a false ident (email, name, etc.) while using the Tor network
[22:10] <sdfsd> Meerk : you should be able to register with that false ID without worrying
[22:10] <sdfsd> If you're a SSH pro and you know clap your hands!

[22:20] <flavor32> recon69_lap, "dmesg | less"
[22:21] <Coldfire202> Is someone in here that knows a good bit about Ubuntu
[22:21] <Coldfire202> ?
[22:21] <owenll> !details | Coldfire202
[22:21] <recon69_lap> flavor32, i mean the other way, i get pages of scrolling messages when i boot but they dont seem to be in dmesg
[22:22] <flavor32> recon69_lap, yes, that happens to me too. dmesg not having everything
[22:23] <recon69_lap> quite frustrating really
[22:23] <flavor32> try "dmesg -s 99000 | less" it might help, or maybe not
[22:23] <Coldfire202> Well, my questions go a lot deeper than just an issue
[22:24] <pangolin> Coldfire202: if you don't ask them you will never know.
[22:25] <recon69_lap> hmm, going to take a picture of it. feel a bit like a cave man lol
[22:25] <sdfsd> If you're a ssh pro and you know it clap your hands!
[22:26] <recon69_lap> rebooting
[22:26] <Coldfire202> Ok, I will start out like this.
[22:26] <Coldfire202> I want to put Ubuntu on my computer. Had it on there before, I couldn't get internet. My USB adapter has to run an .exe file to install drivers and etc.
[22:26] <Coldfire202> I just uninstalled it, which ubuntu should I install? I am a programmer and I want to do a lot on Linux based editting.
[22:26] <sdfsd> I'm trying to use a Damn Small Linux VM as a Firewall for my Ubuntu 11.10 VM. I can't ssh when using HTTP or SSL, but SOCKS5 works. Any idea?
[22:26] <schnuffle> glacia: yes
[22:26] <dlentz> Coldfire202, what wireless adapter is it?
[22:27] <dlentz> extra credit: what chipset?
[22:28] <Coldfire202> hold on dlentz, let me look. I forget

[22:41] <Coldfire202> So, in what programming language is Ubuntu coded in?
[22:42] <flavor32> a variety. most of the system internals in C

[22:42] <Coldfire202> I'll be right back

[22:43] <Lesley> does ubuntu work well on alienware hardware?
[22:43] <aBound> Lesley, You can always try the LiveCD for Ubuntu to test your hardware and see how well it works with Ubuntu.
[22:43] <syddraf> I am attempting to install Ubuntu 11.10 Server onto a computer with two 500gb hard drives in a raid1 configuration, but the partitioner does not show anything except the USB stick that I am booting from. How can I get server edition to recognize the raid array?
[22:44] <Lesley> alright, can i get the live cd from the ubuntu website?
[22:45] <aBound> Lesley, Yes if you have a flash drive you can also install Ubuntu from a LiveUSB as an alternative.
[22:45] <jok1> could someone tell me what program is running when GNU bash starts? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKwV2B8eIto
[22:45] <Lesley> alright ill try it out, thanks
[22:46] <aBound> Lesley, Welcome.
[22:46] <aBound> jok1, Seems like they're running Arch Linux and OpenBox just with a couple of terminals.
[22:47] <jok1> aBound, seems like it, but what might be the bashrc he might be running..?
[22:47] <zvacet> with  Radeon HD 3200 Graphics I can not see anything except white and yellow color when I use gnome3 or cinnamon it is not possible to work because i don´t see anything
[22:47] <jok1> aBound, the terminal is rxvt, with some plugins...
[22:48] <Squall2> hi, got a question about ubuntu + win7 + turecrypt
[22:48] <aBound> jok1, He could of wrote his own .bashrc configuration.
[22:48] <dlentz> zvacet, are you using open-source or proprietary driver
[22:48] <log> !ask | Squall2
[22:49] <jok1> aBound, Any suggestions on to how i would to get mines like that?
[22:50] <aBound> jok1, Not that I know of but an idea would be to contact the person who hosted the video through YouTube.
[22:50] <Squall2> got win7 (not jet encrytped) and ubuntu (encyrptet) installed (grub is installt on /dev/sdaX as /boot) my actualy bootloader is the win7 extendet to start grub....what i have to too to get grub and turcrypt to run ?

[22:50] <nashnash> Hey guys. Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work...
[22:50] <nashnash> for i in 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18; do mv 'American Dad! - S05E$i'*.mkv 'American Dad! - S06E$i.mkv'; done
[22:51] <zvacet> dlentz: proprietary
[22:51] <jok1> aBound, I have doned that, asked it yest. I just hope that i would of gotten an quick answer here
[22:51] <dlentz> do you know what version? 12.1 fixes a lot of gnome3 issues, it did on my mint install
[22:51] <flavor32> syddraf, so the system doesn't see the harddrives at all?
[22:51] <heinz_> nashnash: independent hint:   for i in `seq -w 18` ; ...
[22:51] <zvacet> dlentz: fglrx
[22:52] <dlentz> version number..?
[22:52] <aBound> jok1, Understandable but not all of us tend to use rxvt over gnome-terminal. :P
[22:52] <heinz_> nashnash: and if you want the $i be expanded, use double quotes
[22:52] <dlentz> or whatever was in the ubuntu repo?
[22:52] <syddraf> flavor32: If I launch a shell I can use fdisk on them, but the partitioner has no clue that they are there.
[22:53] <flavor32> syddraf, well, manually partitioning them with fdisk sounds like a solution
[22:53] <jok1> aBound, Heh, true that. Thanks
[22:53] <zvacet> dlentz: according to ati catalyst it is 11.8
[22:53] <aBound> jok1, Sorry I couldn't help you on that aspect and you're welcome.

[22:54] <datakid> how can I tell which programs have been apt pinned?
[22:54] <antovsado> hi
[22:55] <dlentz> zvacet, you can try installing catalyst 12.1
[22:56] <dlentz> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Oneiric_Installation_Guide#Installing_Catalyst_Manually_.28from_AMD.2FATI.27s_site.29
[22:56] <syddraf> flavor32: Any idea how to go about doing that?
[22:57] <hydrox24> syddraf: I just joined but I may be able to help, can you repeat what you want help with please?
[22:57] <flavor32> syddraf, you said you were able to start fdisk. once in fdisk, there is a simple help menu (type "m")
[22:58] <influenzaa> Hi folks, I am in the process of moving some servers from CentOS to ubuntu but I have come up against difficuly with moving over exim.conf. Does anyone here have good knowledge of bringing exim in on Ubuntu?
[22:58] <syddraf> hydrox24: tl;dr: Ubuntu server isn't recognizing the raid array on the computer when i try to install.
[22:58] <zvacet> dlentz: I will try that tnx
[22:58] <syddraf> flavor32: There is, but i don't see anything about setting up a raid array.
[22:59] <dlentz> yw
[22:59] <flavor32> syddraf, if your raid array software or hardware?
[23:00] <syddraf> flavor32: It's been set up through the RAID controller, so whichever that would be.
[23:00] <pgib__> syddraf, ok, so this _is_ hardware raid.  what controller chipset?
[23:00] <schnuffle> syddraf: so iots hardware. the os will only see a normal disk
[23:01] <syddraf> schnuffle: The OS only sees the thumbdrive that I'm using for boot, hence the problem.
[23:02] <syddraf> pgib__: AMD SR5670 + SP5100
[23:02] <wchan_> how can i start ubuntu without X?
[23:02] <flavor32> syddraf, you said fdisk could see the drive(s)
[23:02] <syddraf> flavor32: Yes. It sees the two drives individually.
[23:02] <pgib__> syddraf, if it sees the two drives individually, and you are intending to use hardware raid, then your controller is misconfigured
[23:02] <wchan_> How can i kill X and be console only? everytime i kill it it just restarts
[23:03] <wchan_> i need console mode only . no X
[23:03] <jrib> !nox | wchan_
[23:03] <syddraf> pgib__: Thank you, we will look into that to see.
[23:03] <jrib> wchan_: forever or just one time?
[23:03] <wchan_> just one time
[23:03] <wchan_> need to install something
[23:03] <nOStahl> can I resize Root partiton from recovery kernel?
[23:04] <pgib__> syddraf, if you intend to use software raid, then you are basically all set, beside configuring md/dm-raid
[23:04] <pgib__> syddraf, I know many of those raid controllers give you a chance to configure the controller when the machine boots
[23:04] <pgib__> and rebuild the array, etc..
[23:04] <jrib> wchan_: why would that require no X?  What are you installing?
[23:05] <syddraf> pgib__: That is where it was configured. I guess we messed up the configuration.
[23:05] <wchan_> jrib: CUDA drivers
[23:05] <Elssha> what's the difference between ext2, 3 and 4 journaling sys?
[23:05] <pgib__> syddraf, yes, probably have it configured as JBOD right now
[23:05] <flavor32> syddraf, what level raid were you planning on?
[23:06] <syddraf> flavor32: RAID1
[23:06] <jrib> wchan_: you can stop X by running: sudo service lightdm stop (or whatever dm you use)
[23:06] <oscar76> hi everyone, how do I label a usb stick with ntfslabel ?
[23:06] <flavor32> that's probably not a good idea for a boot disk
[23:06] <wchan_> im using xubuntu xfce .. any idea?
[23:06] <Elssha> what's the difference between ext2, 3 and 4 journaling sys?   which is best to use on a netbook?
[23:06] <flavor32> syddraf, raid 1 for a system boot drive, if either goes you lose everything
[23:06] <zykotick9> Elssha: well, for one, ext2 doesn't have journalling
[23:06] <jrib> wchan_: I don't know what xubuntu uses by default, check which dm is running
[23:07] <pgib__> Elssha, ext2 is not journalled
[23:07] <syddraf> pgib__: We are looking around the controller and it shows as RAID1 and the gloriously translated: "There is no any JBOD disk"
[23:07] <Elssha> sry, meant ext2 3 4
[23:07] <wchan_> jrib: how to check? i type sudo serve [tab] and i dont see any *dm
[23:07] <syddraf> flavor32: Why would that be?
[23:07] <schnuffle> flavor32: wrong that would be raid0
[23:07] <Elssha> is there any advantage between 3 and 4?
[23:07] <jrib> wchan_: "service", not "serve".  You can use ps to check or just check what you have in /etc/init...
[23:08] <wchan_> jrib: yes i typed service . sorry
[23:08] <syddraf> pgib__: The configuration in the raid controller looks correct. Is there anything else that could be wrong?
[23:08] <pgib__> syddraf, perhaps it is configured as two RAID1 each of size 1?
[23:08] <wchan_> jrib: its light lightdm
[23:08] <wchan_> grep found it
[23:08] <oscar76> hi everyone, how do I label a usb stick with ntfslabel ?
[23:08] <pgib__> syddraf, does the raid configuration show the disks and that they are healthy?
[23:09] <Elssha> oscar76, format it and pick ntfs
[23:09] <pgib__> (perhaps the drives are plugged into the wrong controller)
[23:09] <syddraf> pgib__: The controller shows only one raid array, then when you go into that array it shows the two disks.
[23:09] <Elssha> is there any advantage between ext3 and ext4?
[23:09] <pgib__> syddraf, odd..  the controller should not (correct me if I'm wrong) expose the individual drives, only the composite arrays
[23:10] <pgib__> Elssha, 4 > 3 - faster and a few other tweaks (finer timestamps, etc..)
[23:10] <oscar76> Elssha: thanks for the advice, but I don't wanna copy them / format the usb / copy them again.  Is it possible to label it without going through formating it
[23:10] <zykotick9> Elssha: ext4 does have some features not present in ext3, but ext3 has been around longer, and it better tested.  For example, (although usually a small issue) fragmentation when downloading torrents is less of an issue with ext4.
[23:10] <syddraf> pgib__: It's in the RAID controller configuration that it shows. In the BIOS it only shows up as one drive.
[23:10] <pgib__> Elssha, I personally recommend keeping /boot at ext2 or ext3 though
[23:11] <Elssha> ty
[23:11] <Elssha> i'll use 3 since that's what i've set up on my other systems... just got curious over 4
[23:11] <Elssha> ^_^ ty ty
[23:11] <pgib__> syddraf, WEIRD, but then in linux you see the individual drives as separate /dev/sdX blocks?
[23:12] <pgib__> syddraf, and "fdisk -l" verifies that those blocks are the ones you think they are?
[23:12] <Elssha> oscar76, if it was formatted into a non-ntfs usb then you can't change it without formatting it (to my knowledge, anyway)
[23:12] <artichoku> howdie howdie! how's it hangin'?
[23:12] <syddraf> pgib__: Correct. /dev/sda is my thumb drive, /dev/sdb and /dev/sdbc are the 500GB drives.
[23:12] <syddraf> sdc*
[23:13] <oscar76> Elssha: I know, it is formatted as ntfs but has no label.   Do you think I could make it with gparted ?
[23:13] <flavor32> Elssha, there's always JFS or XFS
[23:13] <Elssha> right click rename
[23:14] <Elssha> if my ubuntu install will be on sda6, but i'm duel booting with win (sry, haven't done this in forever) do i install the boot loader on sda or sda6?
[23:14] <plm_> people, boot ubuntu 10.11 via usb, but when I try to install not show HDD to install it,show just the pen drive.. how I do to install in hd?
[23:15] <dablostudio> Hi people, maybe this is not the best place to ask for it but... Does anybody knows that site where users can vote for proposals for a project? I remember that users could vote for things that, if they had enough votes, they'll be implemented in following releases.
[23:15] <redditz> has anyone run into an issue where you change the hardware address on the wlan0, and when the system attempts to connect to a wireless node, the hardware address resets back to its factor setting?

[23:15] <Alice> Hi!  I'm using Ubuntu's hotspot to share ether to a laptop through wifi. When I sleep the laptop, can no longer see the network until I reset it on ubuntu.  Plz hlp!
[23:15] <[deXter]> Elssha, sda
[23:15] <pgib__> dablostudio, are you thinking of the ubuntu idea-torrent? http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/
[23:15] <Elssha> ty
[23:16] <v3g3t0x> quit
[23:16] <dablostudio> pgib__: yes! exactly! But i think there was another one, more general, where you can even create your own "brainstorm"
[23:16] <zambaboo> hey guys how do i enable dynamic debugging in ubuntu lucid server?
[23:16] <phixxor_> hey -- I don't want to panic or anything, but my computer stopped responding in the middle of a distribution upgrade. I'm in the virtual terminal. How can I make the computer finish the upgrade?
[23:16] <pgib__> dablostudio, you can create your own "Ideas" on that page.  then have people (including yourself) propose solutions, vote, etc..
[23:17] <oscar76> Elssha: thanks, I'll try it :)
[23:17] <bobo37773> phixxor_: How long have you waited / been frozen?
[23:17] <Alice> When I sleep the laptop, the ubuntu wireless goes from 100bit to "Speed Unknown"
[23:17] <dablostudio> i mean create your own "project", like, for example, for my own project, where users could add their proposals and everything
[23:17] <plm_> anyone?
[23:17] <dablostudio> worst explanation ever, i know
[23:17] <zambaboo> plm_, whats the question
[23:18] <aBound> Does anybody in here use the program Terminator for Ubuntu 11.10?
[23:18] <phixxor_> bobo37773: frozen, about 5 minutes. The screen that used to be the upgrade dialogue is white, while the area that was the desktop is completely black. I can't see anything else
[23:18] <plm_> zambaboo: I boot ubuntu 10.11 via usb, but when I try to install not show HDD to install it,show just the pen drive.. how I do to install in hd?
[23:18] <pgib> zambaboo,  I believe plm_ is missing drives from selection during installation
[23:18] <zykotick9> plm_: sidenote - there is no ubuntu 10.11, is it 10.04 or 10.10 you are using?
[23:19] <zambaboo> pgib, sounds about right - plm_ this is for you too
[23:19] <pgib> zykotick9, probably 11.10 is my guess
[23:19] <zykotick9> pgib: another option i hadn't considered ;)
[23:19] <Coldfire202> HELP!
[23:19] <plm_> zykotick9: sorry, is 11.10
[23:19] <Coldfire202> http://prntscr.com/5qpqz
[23:20] <syddraf> Now it's not detecting any drives at all.
[23:20] <pgib> I'm so not tempted to try that URL
[23:20] <phixxor_> bobo37773: can I do anything from the virtual terminal to fix it?
[23:20] <pgib> syddraf, define "it".
[23:20] <bobo37773> phixxor_: In a virtual terminal look at top or htop and see if anything is throttling your cpu etc.. If you do not see anything obvious then just keep on waiting. I have seen installations take anywhere from 15 minutes to 45. I would just leave it alone for a while. It may be working in the backround even though it is frozen.
[23:20] <syddraf> pgib: The ubuntu installer.
[23:20] <three18ti> coldfire202, I think you have the wrong OS...
[23:20] <Coldfire202> what do u mean?
[23:20] <three18ti> anything with a C:\ drive can't be helped here...
[23:21] <Alice> I wish I knew how to tell if this was an unbuntu bug, or the generic atheros driver.
[23:21] <plm_> zambaboo: zykotick9 do you know?
[23:21] <syddraf> pgib: And going into the shell for some reason does not have fdisk any more
[23:21] <bobo37773> phixxor_: Always better to do a clean install in my opinion.
[23:21] <three18ti> coldfire "error: C:\ ..." means windows bud.
[23:21] <pgib> phixxor_, if you are at a VT, you can see if a process is consuming 100% CPU perhaps
[23:21] <phixxor_> bobo37773: yeah but then you lose all your data
[23:21] <pangolin> Coldfire202: you need to run the wubi installer as Administrator
[23:21] <phixxor_> pgib: thanks for your suggestion -- it looks like the cpu is idling
[23:22] <Coldfire202> anyway i can fix that?
[23:22] <phixxor_> I don't see dpkg or "oneiric" running at all
[23:22] <pgib> phixxor_, I assume according to 'top'?
[23:22] <phixxor_> pgib: yes
[23:22] <pangolin> Coldfire202: yes, by running the wubi installer as Administrator
[23:22] <Coldfire202> Im on XP
[23:22] <pangolin> Coldfire202: ask in ##windows how to do that
[23:22] <flavor32> XP has administrator too
[23:23] <pgib> syddraf, maybe checksum your install media...
[23:23] <Coldfire202> hm
[23:23] <phixxor_> load average is 0.09
[23:23] <three18ti> coldfire202, my bad; didn't even see it was the ubuntu installer.  pangolin, is correct.
[23:23] <bobo37773> phixxor_: Well then back up first. All I am saying is that Ubuntu is not a rolling release distrobution. If things get screwed up while treating is as such then it is to be expected. With all of the numerous problems I have read in the past related to doing a distro upgrade I wonder why it is even an option or a reccomendation.
[23:23] <pgib> phixxor_, anything interesting at the bottom of 'dmesg'?
[23:24] <plm_> zambaboo: any sugestion?
[23:24] <pgib> or perhaps /var/log/syslog (or some other logs) might have a clue
[23:24] <pgib> phixxor_, ^^
[23:24] <zambaboo> plm_, none, sorry
[23:24] <bobo37773> phixxor_: If you have htop installed then run it and browse to the installer process. See if it is still running.
[23:24] <DooMMasteR> be warned of a maybe serious bug in GTK/Xchat
[23:24] <DooMMasteR> it will crash the app
[23:24] <DooMMasteR> and who knows what else
[23:25] <bobo37773> whew good thing I use irssi
[23:25] <flavor32> what's the link to the bug report?
[23:25] <plm_> people, anyone know how show hd to install when boot ubuntu via pendrive?
[23:26] <zykotick9> plm_: are you using some sort of RAID?
[23:26] <epinky> plm_: unetbootin?
[23:26] <plm_> zykotick9: not, is just one netbook
[23:26] <DooMMasteR> hmm it seems to affect very rare people
[23:26] <plm_> epinky: yes
[23:26] <DooMMasteR> mostly Windows GTK users :P but there are affected linux guys too
[23:27] <DooMMasteR> 󠁟
[23:27] <DooMMasteR> that is one of the chars
[23:27] <StepNjump> Do anybody know how to remove linefeeds >= 3 in libreoffice ? I tried \n\n\n to no avail
[23:27] <datakid> how can I remove something from /etc/apt/sources? I've commented it out, but I'm having trouble with detritus in /var/lib/dpkg/info with preinst and list files
[23:27] <flavor32> so of course you came here to try it out?
[23:27] <epinky> plm_: lemme understand you've used unetbootin and there's no shorcut to install?
[23:29] <zykotick9> StepNjump: you might want to try the #libreoffice channel?
[23:29] <phixxor_> pgib: just got to the bottom of dmseg, nothing there but wireless stuff. bobo37773 I'll try htop. I'll also see if syslog has anything to say
[23:29] <plm_> epinky: i download 11.10 iso and unetbin, after creace pendrive with  that iso because is a netbook without cdrom driver.. after I boot via usb pendrive and start install. In the part where choice the partition, not show HD disc, just pendrive disc to install
[23:30] <bobo37773> phixxor_: If htop is not installed then do not install it while the other installer is running.
[23:31] <bobo37773> phixxor_: The upgrade installer I mean.
[23:31] <epinky> plm_: oh I see, you could try "Alternate CD", it's a driver issue
[23:31] <phixxor_> bobo37773: funny you say that, I tried starting an installation with aptitude, and it didn't say that apt was locked or anyhthing
[23:31] <phixxor_> I didn't do it though
[23:31] <lickalott> gents, anyone have experience with sed?
[23:31] <epinky> !alternate | plm_
[23:31] <phixxor_> bobo37773: I expected it to tell me another application was using apt
[23:32] <zykotick9> !anyone | lickalott
[23:32] <epinky> !unr | plm_: also check
[23:32] <plm_> epinky: ubottu thanks =)
[23:32] <lickalott> i have a perl line that will find and replace fine for me but i have a buddy that it taking a class and NEEDS to use sed.  the issue we're having is he needs to change the content of a line(s) from /usr to /home/ubuntu/apache
[23:32] <lickalott> sry...was typing
[23:33] <epinky> !unity | plm_
[23:33] <plm_> ubottu: but i would like to use the last version 11.10
[23:33] <jimmie> Hey, I tried to install Wine though the software centre and encountered this problem, does anyone have any ideas how to resolve it:
[23:33] <jimmie> There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks.
[23:33] <jimmie> Details: raceback (most recent call last):
[23:33] <jimmie>   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker.py", line 968, in simulate
[23:33] <lickalott> the slashes are what's getting us.  only thing I've found useful on google is \/ to signify a /
[23:33] <FloodBot1> jimmie: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:33] <zykotick9> lickalott: "if" you don't get an answer here, you might want to try the #bash channel
[23:33] <CJMiller> Why am I not getting 1920x1080 out of my Radeon HD 5570 in 11.10, with either FOSS or FGLRX drivers, despite being able to do so in 11.04?
[23:33] <bobo37773> phixxor_: Yeah, I thought the upgrader used apt. Not 100% sure but it seems like it would have to.
[23:34] <aBound> CJMiller, Possibly older drivers or a bug either in the driver/kernel.
[23:34] <whoever> hi all is there a regex package for testing expressions
[23:34] <phixxor_> bobo37773: would it be safe to restart the computer?
[23:34] <bob___> hello, can anyone help me with a dual monitor setup? i just purchased a second monitor, however, when i try to apply the settings i get this error: required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(3520, 1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1920, 1920)
[23:34] <flavor32> whoever, you mean like perl?
[23:36] <whoever> flavor32: no i mean ie: a gui app that i can plug test strings into and a test expression
[23:36] <epinky> !netbook
[23:37] <dlentz> bob___, you can create an xorg.conf specifying virtual screen size
[23:37] <dlentz> give me a minute to get a link
[23:37] <phixxor_> alright I'm going to restart. here goes
[23:38] <syddraf> whoever: Regex can vary depending on the language. The best bet is to use the language you will be using them in. Also #regex are nice guys
[23:38] <whoever> flavor32:  ie kiki
[23:38] <zykotick9> bob___: what graphics card(s) are you using?
[23:39] <bob___> zykotick9: ati
[23:39] <bob___> zykotick9: radeon 6450
[23:39] <syddraf> bob___: Use the amdcccle to configure it
[23:39] <zykotick9> bob___: good luck then
[23:39] <whoever> syddraf:  what about kiki , from what I know most flavor except perl use the same modifiers
[23:39] <syddraf> bob___: I have the same problem when using the Ubuntu display mamanger.
[23:39] <dlentz> bob___, see this for example of using generic /etc/X11/xorg.conf and specifying virtual screen
[23:39] <dlentz> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Try_this_first
[23:40] <whoever> syddraf: got a q for you if your still here
[23:40] <syddraf> whoever: I am
[23:40] <bob___> syddraf: does amdcccle work for you? i'm in there now
[23:41] <lickalott> got it.
[23:41] <Konam> does somebody here users intellij on ubuntu?
[23:41] <lickalott> thanks!
[23:41] <syddraf> bob___: yeah. Run it as root and set stuff up in there
[23:41] <zykotick9> bob___: be aware that dlentz's virtual screen option, typically means Xorg pans to a larger size then screen supports.  typically nothing to do with dual monitors?
[23:41] <Konam> on my machine the java process it uses it's consuming about 500mb, that's insane.
[23:41] <Y_Ichiro> hmm, does anyone know how to get better font rendering on a debian kde?
[23:42] <datakid_> I"m having trouble updating because dpkg is telling me that slapd is half installed. How can I rectify this?
[23:42] <flavor32> Y_Ichiro: use type 1 fonts?
[23:42] <epinky> Konam: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzWmELx-G7w ???
[23:42] <Y_Ichiro> the problem is that the way Ubuntu and Debian renders the same font, has subtile differences
[23:43] <Konam> epinky i got it working, does that video show how to deal with the performance issue i described?
[23:43] <Y_Ichiro> i'm not sure if it's a different AA library
[23:44] <datakid_> I"m finding that if I dpkg -r slapd it tells me that it *is* uninstalled
[23:44] <datakid_> but if I then reinstall, it gives me the same problem...?
[23:44] <whoever>  i am looking at a page that is fomated into columbs but is a .txd, would it be more efficent to process the "columbs" by counting spaces or looking for text . the page is of cooking ingrediate subutiituions  so  the text is not predictable  and all the text may not be on the same line, it may carry to the followingg line
[23:45] <epinky> Konam: well, I think that concerns to Java tunning, maybe you should visit #java support channel
[23:45] <zykotick9> datakid_: are you able to run "sudo apt-get -f install" successfully?
[23:45] <dlentz> i wonder what chan he/she is headed to//
[23:46] <Deimos4> Hello... I need help with dual booting
[23:46] <datakid_> zykotick9, no. Also, I'm on otherwise up to date Lucid
[23:46] <Konam> epinky eclipse doesn't consume that kind of ram for the same project, that's why i'm asking. but thanks
[23:46] <datakid_> ie 10.04.03
[23:46] <aBound> IE Run...
[23:47] <three18ti> !cmds
[23:47] <three18ti> !help Deimos4
[23:47] <Deimos4> !help
[23:49] <three18ti> haha, just found:
[23:49] <three18ti> !lart
[23:49]  * three18ti awwww... :(
[23:49] <Elssha> okay, i just installed ubuntu 11.10 on the netbook, and now my windows partition won't show up in the boot loader. when i go into ubuntu though, the partition shows up and the data is still intact. how do I add the partition to the boot loader?
[23:49] <Deimos4> !help I am trying to dual boot fully encrypted Windows 7 (Truecrypt w/ preboot-authentication) and Ubuntu 11.10 with LUKS from the alternate CD.  I can get both installed and run both, but the mbr gets messed up when I install one over the other.
[23:50] <three18ti> deimos4, no need to preface your question with `!help`, just goahead and ask. :)
[23:50] <epinky> Konam: I don't know how much RAM you have, but may play with init parameters like PermSize or so http://softteco.blogspot.com/2011/02/optimizing-intellij-idea-performance-on.html
[23:50] <Elssha> right now all that shows up is ubuntu, ubuntu recovery, 2 memtests and the windows recovery
[23:51] <b1bbl3d0wn> @ Elssha did you use a live CD?
[23:51] <Deimos4>  I am trying to dual boot fully encrypted Windows 7 (Truecrypt w/ preboot-authentication) and Ubuntu 11.10 with LUKS from the alternate CD.  I can get both installed and encrypted and boot into one, but the mbr gets messed up when I install one over the other.
[23:51] <zykotick9> Elssha: 1st try running "sudo update-grub" and see if it's automatically added (from your running Ubuntu, NOT the livecd)
[23:52] <Elssha> i used a live usb
[23:52] <Elssha> going to run update now and try again
[23:52] <Deimos4> !patience
[23:54] <Elssha> i got back found linux image, found initrd image, found memtest image, found windows recovery
[23:54] <Elssha> ^from sudo update-grub
[23:55] <baei> http://www.linuxinsider.com/story/Ubuntus-New-HUD-Factor-A-Step-Forward-or-Back-74298.html
[23:55] <epinky> Deimos4: AFAIK https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/484102
[23:56] <artichoku> Elssha: http://pastebin.com/jbarW3gM
[23:56] <artichoku> do these steps
[23:56] <artichoku> and windows will return
[23:57] <Elssha> will that add it to the grub loader
[23:57] <artichoku> should
[23:57] <Elssha> and do i have to do it through the live or can i do it from the installed ubuntu
[23:57] <Konam> epinky thanks, i think i will just stick to eclipse though
[23:58] <artichoku> i would do it live, so that you don't mount your existing partitions
[23:58] <epinky> Konam: np
[23:58] <artichoku> if you do it from installed, you'll have to unmount to make the change
[23:58] <Elssha> ah, okay
[23:59] <Deimos4> Thank you for that, but I'm fine with truecrypt doing the chain loading... How do I install grub to a partition that will read my encrypted ubuntu lvm?  I have a dedicated unencrypted /boot partition.
[23:59] <Deimos4> When I escape out of truecrypt it says "no bootable partition" ... :/
