| javier_ | israel: ok, thanks! | 00:00 |

| DinoMuffin | lotus-blade: sudo mkdir /media/cdimg ; sudo mount <iso image here> /media/cdimg | 00:00 |
| javier_ | someone else has any idea, how to fix it? Repeat: I installed banshee-extension-clutterflow, everything fine, I changed some of its options and then I can't open banshee (except if I uninstall the extension, which I still would like to use). Ideas about to fix that? | 00:01 |
| israel | javier_: you can try, sudo find / -name *banshee* | 00:01 |
| DinoMuffin | that, or I think there's a program, like "furious iso mount" or something in the ubuntu package manager | 00:01 |
| flowerpot | with System V init, you could start up in single user mode or bring a system from multi-user mode down to single-user mode (e.g. to perform maintenance). How is this same task accomplished with Upstart? | 00:01 |
| DinoMuffin | if you watn a gui | 00:01 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, what did you mean with "to the logs"? I think I've never done that | 00:01 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_: when a program crashes, it will usually forward its error output to the /var/log directory | 00:02 |
| DinoMuffin | normally syslog | 00:02 |
| DinoMuffin | or, you can run the program from a terminal window | 00:02 |
| mcphail | flowerpot: debian/ubuntu have never supported use of runlevels like that | 00:02 |
| DinoMuffin | and it will forward it to the terminal window | 00:02 |

| willdabeast | How do you boot a Windows XP cd if the current OS is Ubuntu, and on Startup I cannot access my keyboard to enter the BIOS. Is there a way to start the installation while logged in? | 00:03 |
| acerimmer | willdabeast: you can't get to your bios? that's not good | 00:03 |
| Rin | so question, does linux have a huge database of drivers that it can access? | 00:03 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: that's a task for your bios | 00:03 |
| acerimmer | willdabeast: xp??? for what? | 00:03 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: make sure that the CD drive is first inthe boot priority | 00:03 |
| willdabeast | acerimmer, I can get to my bios, but it won't recognize my keyboard for some reason | 00:04 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: or hold tab when you computer starts to choose a boot drive | 00:04 |
| willdabeast | dinomuffin, yea that's what I am trying to change | 00:04 |
| israel | willdabeast: weird cuestion, mmm change the keyboard usb by ps2 and try to get in the setup | 00:04 |
| mcphail | Rin: the linux kernel is full of "drivers" | 00:04 |
| Rin | so how does it choose which one it use, and does it do it automatically? | 00:04 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: oh, what's your keyboard? USB? | 00:05 |
| israel | willdabeast: try pressing F9 | 00:05 |
| mcphail | Rin: it chooses automatically and you rarely have to override it | 00:05 |
| zennez0009 | hello | 00:06 |
| Rin | so basically, i create a live cd, and boot my new computer using that cd and it will autp configure most everything? | 00:06 |
| willdabeast | israel, it didn't do anything. | 00:06 |
| willdabeast | Dinomuffin, let me check | 00:06 |
| zennez0009 | anyone here uses zim wiki desktop? | 00:06 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, what I find tehre is "Jan 31 19:04:26 javier-Aspire-5742 kernel: [15809.971686] ptrace of non-child pid 26261 was attempted by: gdb (pid 26348)" | 00:06 |
| mcphail | Rin: unless you are very unlucky, yes | 00:06 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, doesnt say a lot to me... | 00:06 |
| Rin | alright. that makes me feel a ton better about linux then. XD | 00:06 |
| israel | willdabeast: mmm then you need to enter setup and set boot secuence cd first | 00:07 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_: but it's working now, correct? | 00:07 |
| fbsd | hi | 00:07 |
| mcphail | Rin: it is magic when it works... (which is most of the time) | 00:07 |
| Rin | mind if a query you mcphail, and ask a few other questions i have on my mind? | 00:07 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, yes, because I unistalled the extension | 00:07 |
| willdabeast | dinomuffin, the keyboard flashed on and turned off, it's not a keyboard problem though I use it on my computer all the time. | 00:07 |
| mcphail | Rin: happy to reply in channel but I'm going to bed soon | 00:08 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_: I've never used banshee, but has it updated recently? the extension may no longer be compatible | 00:08 |
| Rin | ok, well, i was just wondering about how linux "drivers" come to be, are they done by the oem, or by other people? | 00:08 |
| vandal- | willdabeast, i had similiar issue with pretty new usb keyboard. problem solved with usb to ps2 adapter ;) | 00:08 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: it's possible that the BIOS doesn't like it though. If you have a PS2 adapter, try putting that on | 00:09 |
| israel | willdabeast: told you earlier | 00:09 |
| israel | willdabeast: weird cuestion, mmm change the keyboard usb by ps2 and try to get in the setup | 00:09 |
| mcphail | Rin: bit of both. Some of the drivers have had to be reverse engineered | 00:09 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: also, if you're running it through a KVM switch, it might get angry | 00:09 |
| magicJ | willdabeast: it is that the bios is too old to support usb | 00:09 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, but, the thing is, after installing the extension, it worked. I went then to its properties (of the extension), and make changed about the resolution that it displays some images. And then it crashed and never worked again. When I nuistall it, the changed i made in preferences are still there (I assume) and I don't get the chance to set them as they were at the beggining, because the program doesnt open | 00:10 |
| Rin | and also, is there a tool inside of ubuntu itself that you can use to find new drivers for your hardware? | 00:10 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_: have you tried deleting the config files? | 00:10 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_: they're probably in your home folder somewhere | 00:10 |
| willdabeast | dinomuffin, any other solutions? I don't have a ps2 cord | 00:10 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, I can't find it there, that's the problem. There is no .banshee folder | 00:11 |
| mcphail | Rin: new drivers will be loaded automatically for new hardware. Ubuntu will offer alternative drivers if necessary | 00:11 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: well, have you been able to access bios with that keyboard before? | 00:11 |
| Rin | cool, so for the most part its all plug and play | 00:11 |
| mcphail | Rin: as i said, when it works it is magic... | 00:11 |
| Rin | also, what about games? is there even a such thing as steam for linux? | 00:11 |
| javier_ | DinoMuffin, Ah! I found it! It's fixed :) Thanks a lot! | 00:11 |
| willdabeast | dinomuffin, no I mean that keyboard works with my other computer, this computer it doesn't let me do anything after I enter the Boot Menu | 00:12 |
| DinoMuffin | javier_:no prob :) | 00:12 |
| mcphail | Rin: some steam games work. Steam itself runs through an application called "wine" | 00:12 |
| Rin | and theres an app market im assuming, correct? | 00:12 |
| mcphail | Rin: but don't expect much major-label support for ubuntu | 00:12 |
| Rin | didnt figure to | 00:12 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: ok, i guess i didn't hear the entire problem. if it stops working after you enter bios, then it sounds like the bios version may be buggy | 00:13 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: or too old | 00:13 |
| Rin | there needs to be though.. windows is too much of a monopoly | 00:13 |
| dsirijus | could anyone help me with trackpoint (trakstyk by hp actually)? it freezes if i move it too fast (i have to move it REAL slow not to freeze) | 00:13 |
| mcphail | Rin: there is a user-friendly "app-market" type interface | 00:13 |
| israel | willdabeast: some pc dont let you use usb keyboards until de OS is running thats why you need to change for a ps2 plug | 00:13 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: what israel said too | 00:13 |
| dsirijus | it's recognized as ps2 mouse, and trackpad works just fine | 00:14 |
| Rin | is there a such thing as java for linux? | 00:14 |
| metasansana | Rin yup | 00:14 |
| mcphail | Rin: of course | 00:14 |
| metasansana | Java is multi platform | 00:14 |
| willdabeast | dinomuffin and israel, is there a way to fix it if the bios is too old? | 00:14 |
| Rin | and im assuming that means any java programs are able to be run in linux as well? | 00:14 |
| alfredo72 | Hi. I'm having audio issues since my last upgrade, audio is choppy, at best, music sounds as if played in a phonograph! some web videos work, some don't | 00:14 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: flash the bios, if there's a newer version | 00:14 |
| metasansana | Rin not any but most should | 00:14 |
| mcphail | Rin: just about, yes | 00:14 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: but you ususally have to be able to navigate the bios to flash it | 00:14 |
| Rin | alrighty. also, anything browser based should be just like on windows, right? | 00:15 |

| mcphail | Rin: better on ubuntu | 00:16 |
| Rin | thought so | 00:16 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: flashing bios though ubuntu? | 00:16 |
| DinoMuffin | willdabeast: not that I know of | 00:16 |
| Rin | so why would fonts mess up? | 00:16 |
| mcphail | Rin: you can install the Windows fonts easily | 00:16 |

| Rin | i have no idea how to do one of those. | 00:19 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: 1 sec | 00:19 |
| alfredo72 | thanks Dino | 00:19 |
| metasansana | Rin: its actually straight forward | 00:20 |
| Rin | explain? | 00:20 |
| metasansana | like installing a new program | 00:20 |
| Rin | please and thanks for all the help | 00:20 |
| metasansana | Rin Virtual box allows you to install other operating systems without messing up your main one | 00:20 |
| Rin | oh. cool | 00:20 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: does it only happen when using flash? or with everything? | 00:21 |
| Rin | so is it running both OS's at the same time? | 00:21 |
| alfredo72 | Dino: everything, Banshee sounds as if played through a tin can | 00:21 |
| metasansana | Rin think of it like you are running a guest operating system as a regular application | 00:21 |
| alfredo72 | some videos sound ok, most don't | 00:21 |
| metasansana | Rin like you would Firefox or Internet explorer | 00:22 |
| Rin | so its an OS as a single program inside of windows? | 00:22 |
| Rin | and how do i set that up to be done? | 00:22 |
| alfredo72 | I have upgraded and updated everything | 00:22 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: and you're using pulseaudio, correct? | 00:22 |
| metasansana | Rin: Virtual Box is the application that you manage the Os guests from | 00:22 |
| alfredo72 | good question Dino, how do I find that out? | 00:22 |
| Rin | how do i get Virtual box? | 00:23 |
| metasansana | Rin: https://www.virtualbox.org/ | 00:23 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: open a terminal and type in pulseaudio | 00:23 |
| DinoMuffin | it should say the dameon is running if you do | 00:23 |
| alfredo72 | E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. | 00:23 |
| alfredo72 | E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. | 00:23 |
| DinoMuffin | alrighy | 00:23 |
| alfredo72 | getting anywhere? | 00:23 |
| metasansana | Rin: they have documentation on the website two | 00:24 |
| flowerpot | Is it possible to have a file system on a device without a partition? | 00:24 |
| Rin | it seems as if oracle is a really big open source backer | 00:24 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: i'm checking for bug reports | 00:24 |
| alfredo72 | cool, thanks Dino | 00:24 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: unfortunately pulseaudio is a bit of a trainwreck | 00:24 |
| metasansana | Rin: They acquired Sun Micro a while ago | 00:24 |
| alfredo72 | oook... so the recommendation is... | 00:24 |
| metasansana | Rin: they have an agenda like any other corp | 00:24 |

| alfredo72 | DinoMuffin: I began the sound troubleshooting procedure found in the ubuntu forums, but it seems that is for NO audio at all, which is NOT the case | 00:26 |

| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: aparently there is some issues with the alsa driver when it amplifies sound | 00:50 |
| alfredo72 | can't believe that did it (I'm POSITIVE I hadn't touched anything there) | 00:50 |
| kah_ | i can click on the top tab and will get the pull down menus | 00:50 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: i'll put it in a bug report | 00:50 |
| kah_ | and they show up | 00:50 |
| alfredo72 | thanks dude | 00:50 |
| alfredo72 | so what can I do for you? | 00:50 |
| kah_ | but launchy and the top menu bar are transparent | 00:50 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: if it just updated, it you might not of had to do anything | 00:50 |
| xcyclist | acerimmer: okay, well I've looked in the .thunderbird directory, and it is pretty obscure, and has no serious difference from my other account. | 00:50 |
| alfredo72 | I know: " aguy walks into a bar carring a briefcase..." | 00:50 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: lol, dont worry about it. i do this stuff for fun | 00:50 |
| alfredo72 | so one last question: do I put all the bars in the "white zone"? all are cranked all the way up to red | 00:51 |
| acerimmer | xcyclist: I've been know to delete hidden config files. logout/login and it forces a rebuild of the config. | 00:51 |
| kah_ | DinoMuffin: any idea? :D | 00:51 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: the rest shouldn't matter, PCM is the one to look out for | 00:52 |
| DinoMuffin | kah_: 1 sec | 00:52 |
| alfredo72 | DinoMuffin: | 00:53 |
| alfredo72 | cool, thanks a lot bro, really appreciate that | 00:53 |
| alfredo72 | and another (less important) question, this one I can live with: my monitor is out of range but there is no option for the resolution ... any ideas on that one? | 00:53 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: no prob man | 00:53 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: is it on DVI or VGA? | 00:54 |
| alfredo72 | ok, I hjaven't got a clue | 00:54 |
| DinoMuffin | kah_: try reinstalling gnome_panel in the synaptic package manager | 00:54 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: ok, is it LCD or CRT? | 00:54 |
| alfredo72 | LCD I guess... flat screen, not a year old | 00:55 |
| artichoku | howdie howdie! how's it hangin'? | 00:55 |
| DinoMuffin | it's probably DVI then | 00:55 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: open a terminal and type "xrandr" | 00:56 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: any resolutions showing up? | 00:56 |
| alfredo72 | Dino: yeah, a whole bunch of them | 00:57 |
| DinoMuffin | but they don't show up in the display options? | 00:57 |
| alfredo72 | oh they do, it's just that the one spcific for my stupid monitor doesn't | 00:57 |
| DinoMuffin | oh, its on a non-native resolution? | 00:58 |
| DinoMuffin | hm | 00:58 |
| alfredo72 | well it's a resolution HP thought is really cool? | 00:58 |
| ActionParsnip | alfredo72: what video chip do you use? | 00:59 |
| Oer | alfredo72, what resolution exactly ? | 00:59 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: I have to wonder now if it's actually connected through VGA, rather than DVI | 00:59 |
| alfredo72 | that's what I'm trying to find out without shutting down the computer | 00:59 |
| alfredo72 | how wpould I know that? | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | alfredo72: lspci | grep -i vga what is output? | 01:00 |
| DinoMuffin | well VGA will likely be a thick black cable with a blue end | 01:00 |
| DinoMuffin | DVI will have a white end | 01:00 |
| alfredo72 | VGA it is | 01:00 |
| DinoMuffin | yeah | 01:00 |
| haylo | vga has a bunch of pins | 01:00 |
| DinoMuffin | it might not be detecting the monitor correctly | 01:00 |
| haylo | linux sux with some resolutions alfredo72 2nd monitor im guessing? | 01:01 |
| DinoMuffin | you can force a specific resolution with xrandr | 01:01 |
| DinoMuffin | if memory serves me | 01:01 |
| semitones | ActionParsnip: hey, you told me a long time ago to unload psmouse and reload it when my computer resumed from sleep | 01:01 |
| haylo | cool DinoMuffin il try that | 01:01 |
| alfredo72 | haylo: nope this is the monitor that came with the computer | 01:02 |
| alfredo72 | DinoMuffin: cool, how? | 01:02 |
| semitones | ActionParsnip: is there a way to make that happen every time I come back from sleep, automatically? | 01:02 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: gotta remember how lol, 1 sec | 01:02 |
| Ben64 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions | 01:02 |
| semitones | ActionParsnip: also is that still the best way of dealing with the problem of the touchpad not working properly? | 01:02 |
| alfredo72 | sure, no prob | 01:02 |
| DinoMuffin | alfredo72: ah yeah, that link ben posted would do it | 01:03 |
| alfredo72 | thanks Ben64 | 01:03 |
| DinoMuffin | hmm | 01:04 |
| alfredo72 | Dino: it should be 1366x768 | 01:05 |
| DinoMuffin | wow you have to know the specific h and v sync timings? | 01:05 |
| Ben64 | 1366x768 isn't that strange | 01:05 |
| DinoMuffin | yeah but he's not using dvi | 01:05 |
| Ben64 | doesn't matter | 01:05 |
| alfredo72 | Dino: those would be H = 48kHz V = 60 Hz | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | semitones: sure, make a script to unload and reload the module, then run: gksudo gedit /etc/pm/sleep.d/90_psmouse and you will need text like #2 here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1334429 | 01:06 |

| evoandroidevo | 1024x600 :D small screen eh | 01:06 |
| alfredo72 | Ben64 so basically I follow instructions on the thread you kindly provided? | 01:07 |

| DinoMuffin | til about cvt | 01:09 |
| DinoMuffin | neat | 01:09 |
| evoandroidevo | is there anything that records the screen in Ubuntu kinda like fraps for windows | 01:09 |
| semitones | ActionParsnip: it had been a while... I was hoping an update would have fixed it by now. I was avoiding upgrading away from 10.10 because I didn't want to deal with trackpad issues | 01:10 |
| SonWighFac9 | yeah the new gnome 3 have a built in screen recorder | 01:10 |
| DinoMuffin | evoandroidevo: have you tried "desktop recorder" in ubuntu package manager? | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | evoandroidevo: recordmydesktop or byzanz | 01:10 |
| evoandroidevo | yea i have tried it but i couldnt get it to save the video | 01:10 |
| alfredo72 | uh, Ben64, quick question: I assume the mode I want doesn't exist so I have to input the second line of code? | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | semitones: some touchpads hate being hibernated | 01:11 |

| Glowball | pfifo: The package list at the end of the page lists v17 as the latest version. Synaptic/Software Centre can't find it and won't update higher than 15. | 01:52 |
| DinoMuffin | well, to add a new resolution to xrandr, you have to have the sync timings | 01:52 |

| Glowball | pfifo: So there still is something wrong which prevents my Ubuntu from updating to the latest version, right? | 01:53 |
| bazhang | JermBob, yes, try that | 01:53 |

| BlueProtoman | Anyone here mind helping me out with my hardware acceleration? I still can't get it working. Ubuntu 11.04, Intel HD 3000 and nVidia GeForce 520M, both controlled via Optimus.

| Miggs | Hi guys. I got myself into a spot of PPA trouble with Pidgin. I'm trying to clean it up but apt is giving me an error that I don't know how to deal with. Can someone please look at this http://pastie.org/3292911 and give me a hint? | 02:02 |
| scientes | Miggs, what files are in ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 02:03 |
| ablyss | Miggs, whats a PPA | 02:03 |
| scientes | !ppa | 02:03 |
| ubottu | A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa | 02:03 |
| ablyss | thx | 02:03 |
| Miggs | scientes: morgan@lappy:~$ ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | grep -i pidgin finds nothing. | 02:04 |
| Miggs | There is also no mention of pidgin in /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:05 |
| pfifo | ubottu, thanks but wheres the $20 you owe me? | 02:05 |
| ubottu | pfifo: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:05 |
| ablyss | Miggs, so basically your PPA wants to install something but your system does not support it | 02:05 |
| scientes | OK, then it is some PPA-foo, i'm not sure about how all that stuff works | 02:05 |
| metasansana | wow ubottu responds! | 02:05 |
| Miggs | The ppa has been purged already and I can't find anywhere where that could be being referenced. | 02:05 |
| ablyss | Miggs, you use sudo apt-get update you should see the PPA in the list | 02:06 |
| scientes | Miggs, apt-get update | 02:06 |
| metasansana | :( | 02:06 |
| Miggs | I've already done that a bunch but I'll do it again now | 02:06 |
| scientes | Miggs, then do apt-get remove pidgin && apt-get install pidgin | 02:07 |
| scientes | or apt-get -t your-version-codename install pidgin | 02:07 |
| haylo | miggs put in synaptic and then deselcet pigin and go ahead and install- it will just install the dependencis | 02:07 |
| Miggs | No mention of pidgin in the apt-get update output. | 02:07 |
| jtannenbaum | I'm on 10.04 and my monitor resolution is screwed up. I knew this because the bottom left corner of my screen can do this: http://i.imgur.com/fRtex.png | 02:07 |
| jtannenbaum | it's clearly cut off | 02:07 |
| jtannenbaum | changing the resolution just makes it obviously messed up | 02:08 |
| Miggs | morgan@lappy:~$ sudo apt-get remove pidgin leads to Package pidgin is not installed, so not removed | 02:08 |
| pfifo | Miggs, according to the pastebin, pidgin is trying to install a pidgin-data that is too new for it to use, so I am thinking your trying to install a non-ppa version of pidgin that is pulling in a ppa verson of pidgin-data, double check your PPA and ensure your desired package isnt named something different from just plain 'pidgin' | 02:08 |
| haylo | miggs it sounds like you tried to remove pigin then reinstall it? | 02:08 |
| ablyss | jtannenbaum, do you have reset or recalibrate button on your monitor? | 02:08 |
| jtannenbaum | don't think so, it might be in the menu | 02:08 |
| haylo | yeah i dont think you should draw pigin from a ppa- its in almost every repo i think | 02:09 |
| Miggs | haylo: that's right - I used the ppa on the pidgin site then cleared that out so I could use the one in the Ubuntu repo instead. | 02:09 |
| ablyss | jtannenbaum, maybe restarting gdm | 02:09 |
| scientes | Miggs, apt-get remove pidgin && apt-get install pidgin | 02:09 |
| haylo | Miggs, put the name in synaptic | 02:09 |
| haylo | that will tell you the depends Miggs | 02:09 |
| Miggs | scientes: apt says pidgin is not installed so it can't remove it, then the install has the error in nthe pastie. | 02:09 |
| Miggs | haylo: Cheers, I'll give that a try. | 02:10 |
| haylo | then deselct it and install those depends will still be selected | 02:10 |
| haylo | its a pain but at least it gives you some options | 02:10 |
| jtannenbaum | ablyss: I've restarted the computer, which I assume restarts gdm | 02:11 |
| jtannenbaum | and no luck | 02:11 |
| jtannenbaum | anything I can install? the resolution in general looks kind of garbage, like everything is very slightly fuzzy | 02:13 |

| pfifo | jeremiah_, make sure to include the path ex. `ls -lh /path/to/file.ext` or use the cd command to navigate to the directory in question... or just run `ls` by itself to determine what files are in your working direstory | 02:22 |

| semitones | Ben64: "sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sleep 2; sudo modprobe psmouse" -- if I could get it to run every resume, that would be great. | 02:35 |
| Ben64 | sudo is probably the problem | 02:36 |
| semitones | pfifo: I don't know bash scripting, or how to make a script run on resume | 02:36 |

| Nach0z | says that it can't connect to /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket or something | 02:39 |
| dmitry_ | do I need to export the PATH to save it? Will it overwrite the existing paths? | 02:39 |

| evoandroidevo | or pastbin.com lol | 02:39 |

| Nach0z | oh nevermind | 02:42 |
| DinoMuffin | probably either dmseg or syslog | 02:42 |
| Xdoc | Whos going to be Preident | 02:42 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: pasting into pastebin now. I'm not actually ON my ubuntu right now, it's a different partition on this laptop, I'm just accessing the partition through an EXT3 reader | 02:42 |

| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: looks like a known bug | 02:45 |

| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: ffs cygwin can't access the drive XD this might take a while | 02:50 |
| DinoMuffin | cygwin? | 02:50 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: Um. What if there's no /var/lock? :S | 02:50 |
| DinoMuffin | why not boot into that partition? | 02:50 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: cuz is broke :| | 02:50 |
| Nach0z | but yeah it looks like i'll have to resort to that | 02:50 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: the installation is broken? or the harddrive? | 02:50 |
| Nach0z | but there's no /var/lock on my partition.... | 02:51 |
| evoandroidevo | cygwin i could never get that to work | 02:51 |
| Nach0z | the installation is borked | 02:51 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: oh :| | 02:51 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: yeah. lol. that's what I'm tryin to fix | 02:51 |
| DinoMuffin | well, that's probably why it can't connect to the network | 02:51 |
| DinoMuffin | lol | 02:51 |
| DinoMuffin | so, reinstall ubuntu? | 02:51 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: that's my point XD that's why I'm coming in here askin for help. the installation messed up the /run and /var/run stuff | 02:51 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: I'd reinstall but my home folder is encrypted and I don't wanna lose all that work. | 02:52 |
| Nach0z | might copy my /var/lock off of my ubuntu server... | 02:52 |
| DinoMuffin | you shouldnt need to delete the home folder | 02:52 |
| Nach0z | to overwrite the OS on the drive? | 02:52 |
| DinoMuffin | well, is home it's own partition? | 02:53 |
| evoandroidevo | Nach0z y not just copy to a extrunal hard drive ? just in case | 02:53 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: not that I'm aware of. it's encrypted but I'm not sure how that process works | 02:53 |
| DinoMuffin | hm | 02:53 |
| Nach0z | evoandroidevo: cant copy encrypted hidden stuff >_> can't even find it | 02:53 |
| Nach0z | brb though, letting the dog inside | 02:53 |
| DinoMuffin | i don't remember if ubuntu defaults to having it all one big partition, or a sepereate home partition | 02:54 |
| evoandroidevo | one big partion | 02:54 |
| Lirth | Anyone know why when I try to log in to Roboform Chrome extension for the first time it will crash Ubuntu? I get an error message about Kernels when it happens. | 02:56 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: ok then, do you have a ubuntu live cd? | 02:57 |
| pfifo | no I remember it creating a swap partition when i used the default partition recommendation | 02:57 |
| dagerik | I am having trouble with running ubuntu(10.04) on a GMA500 laptop. The graphics are really sluggish. Should I upgrade to latest ubuntu? | 02:57 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: nope. wish I did. | 02:58 |
| evoandroidevo | Lirth if u posted the log in a http://pastebin.com someone could help you | 02:58 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: well, you need one | 02:58 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: I've needed one for a looong time. | 02:58 |
| pfifo | Nach0z, you dont have 50 livecd coasters on your coffee table? | 02:58 |
| Lirth | evoandroidevo: My problem is it crashes, shows the error message for a second or two, and then goes to the log in screen and I don't get a chance to take it down. | 02:59 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: you can manually access the data off the encrypted folders, but you need a live cd and the mount password | 02:59 |
| evoandroidevo | pfifo Y 50 u olny need 5 | 02:59 |
| pfifo | ...per distro | 03:00 |
| evoandroidevo | lol | 03:00 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: it will save the last log to the dmesg.0 file in your /var/log folder | 03:00 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: ah I see. that'd be cool. gonna reboot right now and see if I can beat this thing into submission. brb | 03:00 |
| JermBob | hey another question, how can i change the resolution in ubuntu ? | 03:00 |

| LABcrab | Hello people! i have a 2 GB and 4 GB DDR3 sticks in my laptop, but only the 2 GB stick is detected. What went wrong? | 03:05 |
| DinoMuffin | Does it show up in your bios? | 03:05 |
| Lirth | Ok, my log from crashing in ubuntu when I tried to log into the chrome extension is here. I don't have any problems when I use it in WIndows 7. http://pastebin.com/Ckzwyuts | 03:05 |
| dagerik | LABcrab: It was not automatically mounted. You have to mount it manually. | 03:05 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, does the 4gb stick work when you install it by itself? | 03:05 |
| LABcrab | dagerik: Really? | 03:05 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: Don't feel like trying. | 03:06 |
| LABcrab | Not yet. | 03:06 |
| LABcrab | Not tonight. | 03:06 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, well i can tell you for sure, your not allowed to mix memory like that | 03:06 |
| LABcrab | Says who? | 03:06 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, dual channel memory doesnt work that way | 03:07 |
| LABcrab | Plus i have the other problem where if i put my mouse in the lower right corner, it gets trapped. | 03:07 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: So i have to put 8 GB and that's it? What do i do with the 2 GB + 2 GB that comes with the laptop? | 03:07 |
| evoandroidevo | sell it | 03:07 |
| dagerik | LABcrab: Nevermnd my comment. I though you were mounting usb sticks | 03:07 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, the memory needs to be the same, 2, 2+2, 4, 4+4 | 03:07 |
| evoandroidevo | keep it for just in case | 03:07 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: has it ever crashed like this before with any other program? | 03:08 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, its also possible your board doesnt support 4gb sticks, and the most you can have is 2+2 | 03:08 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Only with the Roboform extension right after turn my computer on and only in Ubuntu. | 03:08 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: but that's not fair, another computer has 1 GB + ½ GB of RAM DDR1. | 03:08 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: Up to 8GB according to Crucial. | 03:08 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: how many times, do you think? | 03:09 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, that was before dual channel architectures | 03:09 |
| LABcrab | Well, darn. Gotta pay another $25. | 03:09 |
| LABcrab | Why is dual channel better? | 03:09 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, not reall, use only the 4 stick for now | 03:09 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I don't turn my computer off often, but it happens every time as I can remember. | 03:09 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, twice as fast | 03:09 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: Then i'm not ahead compared to 2 GB + 2 GB i had before! | 03:10 |
| LABcrab | i get 0 GB of new memory! | 03:10 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, the 2+2 will be faster then the 4 alone | 03:10 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: and this is a laptop? | 03:10 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, but you should still test the 4 works all by itself | 03:10 |
| themaster_ | Need some help | 03:11 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Yes, HP Pavillion dv6 | 03:11 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: thanks, 1 sec | 03:11 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: IT WORKZ mwahahaha (thanks) | 03:11 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: It happens only once per time I turn the computer on. After that it's fine until I turn off the computer again. | 03:11 |
| themaster_ | I need help with ubuntu server getting a command to run on boot | 03:12 |
| pfifo | !ask | themaster_ | 03:13 |
| ubottu | themaster_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 03:13 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: no prob :) | 03:13 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: oh | 03:13 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: sorry I misunderstood, I thought it was kernel panicking | 03:14 |
| themaster_ | problem is this is urgent DX | 03:14 |
| evoandroidevo | themaster_ ask in more detail | 03:14 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: It's brand new and sealed from the store! Unlikely it won't work. What do i do with the 2 GB and 2 GB i have left? Other computers with DDR2 won't take them! Darn, who makes RAM like this? | 03:14 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I'm completely new to ubuntu and the word kernel keeps coming up. What exactly is it? | 03:14 |
| themaster_ | I need to launch a flash policy daemon on boot so it can run along my IRC server | 03:14 |
| themaster_ | I have no idea how to start.. | 03:15 |
| xangua | Lirth: the linux kernel | 03:15 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: kernel panic is the equivilant of a windows BSOD, basically | 03:15 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, I suggest you mail the 2 2GB to me. | 03:15 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: means something pretty bad happened and it can no longer run | 03:15 |
| LABcrab | pfifo: As a donation? | 03:15 |
| evoandroidevo | LABcrab u could sell them or keep them in case ur ram goes bad better safe than sorry | 03:16 |
| scientes | DinoMuffin, he is just seeing informational messages, probably on boot | 03:16 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: when it happens, either the computer completely freeses and nothing happens, or it goes to a terminal screen that gives you a stack trace | 03:16 |
| scientes | Lirth, to see kernel information, largely about hardware, type dmesg | 03:16 |
| LABcrab | evoandroidevo: Never had a RAM problem for almost four years on my older laptop, but maybe. | 03:16 |
| evoandroidevo | the computer im on now the ram goes out easily but its not mine so idc | 03:17 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, also, intel made memory like this | 03:17 |
| DinoMuffin | if it's a software error, as in you can still use your computer after the crash, it will likely be in your syslog file, rather than dmesg | 03:17 |
| LABcrab | What about my mouse being "trapped" at the bottom right, and i have to jig it out to get it out? | 03:17 |
| pfifo | LABcrab, I would keep the sticks, you might obtain a craptastic used box in the future that could use them | 03:18 |
| Guest32940 | hi | 03:18 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: sorry if that's confusing, but if it's a kernel panic, you cannot use your computer until you manually restart it again | 03:18 |
| LABcrab | i guess. They're only worth $12.50 a piece anyway, if you consider 4 GB = $25. | 03:18 |
| LABcrab | But the mouse problem is bugging me. Fix please? | 03:18 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I don't think it's that. It crashes and takes me to the log in screen, but I don't have to restart. | 03:18 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: in the time that my ubuntu's been offline... I just did sudo apt-get update... 579 packages to be updated :| almost 600 megs | 03:19 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: ok, what it's doing then is killing the X server | 03:19 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: and restarting it | 03:19 |
| Guest32940 | colorado state | 03:19 |
| DinoMuffin | Nach0z: lol, have fun with that | 03:19 |
| MrKeuner | hello, default LANG for a box is A, if I want B as for my user, how should I be handling this? I guess I should write LANG=B somewhere? .bashrc? .bash_login? | 03:19 |
| DinoMuffin | :{ | 03:19 |
| DinoMuffin | :P | 03:19 |
| Nach0z | DinoMuffin: ikr :'< | 03:20 |
| scientes | B? LANG=C | 03:20 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: anyways, the log for that is Xorg.0.log.old | 03:20 |
| themaster_ | >*> | 03:20 |
| xangua | MrKeuner: select the language on your login screen | 03:20 |
| scientes | export LANG=C | 03:20 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: if you can pastebin that, that would be awesome | 03:20 |
| scientes | otherwise you need a read region, ie LANG=zh_CN | 03:20 |
| evoandroidevo | brb | 03:20 |
| cyclicflux | Hello all!!!! | 03:20 |
| tycel2 | hello | 03:21 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: As I said, I'm new to linux and ubunu, so... Huh? What is Xorg.0.log.old? | 03:21 |
| pfifo | MrKeuner, I put it in .profile | 03:21 |
| scientes | LANG=C means to skip gettext, and use the original text, instead of the translations | 03:21 |
| MrKeuner | xangua, no X access here | 03:21 |
| tycel2 | so, appearantly Ubuntu wubi didn't find my drivers properly for my video card | 03:21 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: Xorg is the graphical user interface manager, so to speak. | 03:21 |
| scientes | MrKeuner, you see my stuff about LAND? | 03:21 |
| MrKeuner | pfifo, does that work for ssh sessions? | 03:21 |
| tycel2 | its nvidia I believe (atleast it says so on the toshiba website) | 03:21 |
| scientes | *LANG | 03:21 |
| tycel2 | so what do I have to install to get them to wrok? | 03:21 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: when programs crash under linux, they forward their error messages to /var/log | 03:21 |
| LABcrab | Am i the only person in the world that gets the mouse stuck on the bottom right, and then when i try to get it out, i have to shake it very hard so it moves elsewhere on the screen? | 03:21 |
| tycel2 | work*? | 03:21 |
| tycel2 | catalayst? | 03:22 |
| evoandroidevo | ahh better | 03:22 |
| dr_willis | hmm? | 03:22 |
| Guest32940 | @Labcrap are you using a vm | 03:22 |
| MrKeuner | scientes, just notices, nut don't understand if I need de_DE.utf would still LANG=C work? | 03:22 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I found it. Should I paste the whole thing? | 03:22 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: the file Xorg.0.log.old is the log from the last time X server ran | 03:22 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: yeah | 03:22 |
| pfifo | lol labcrap | 03:22 |
| scientes | MrKeuner, LANG=C gives you english, for 99.9% percent of packages, as most packages are written in english | 03:23 |
| LABcrab | Guest21792: one, it's "crab", two, i use VirtualBox once in a while, but happens with or without VBox. | 03:23 |
| scientes | but they don't have to be written in english, and otherwise you need the specific region code, even if en_US | 03:23 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I can't figure out how to open it. I can't seem to find the way to open it in a text editor | 03:23 |
| scientes | *.utf8 | 03:23 |
| cyclicflux | I am having some kind of strange issue with regard to my monitor intermittently going to sleep while I am using my computer. It goes to sleep fine when it is left, however, when I am using it, it appears that it intermittently goes to sleep. I changed my graphics settings to kms for my ati-5770, and blacklisted the appropriate modules in '/etc/modprobe.d/', as well as updated the 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT', with the 'radeon.m | 03:23 |
| cyclicflux | odeset=1', and then ran 'update-grub' | 03:23 |
| LABcrab | For example, i'm running Ubuntu natively right now, mouse gets stuck at bottom right unless i shake very hard. | 03:24 |
| themaster_ | How do I get ubuntu server to initiate a command on boot? | 03:24 |
| scientes | LABcrab, that sounds very strange | 03:24 |
| cyclicflux | however, this appears to still intermittently happen, its kind of sporadic, and random, but has a tendency of coming in bursts | 03:24 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: if you're at a terminal, run "gedit Xorg.0.log.old" | 03:24 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: otherwise right click and open it with gedit | 03:24 |
| cyclicflux | themaster, I would think it would be something either in grub, or init-scripts | 03:24 |
| dr_willis | themaster_: /etc/rc.local is one way | 03:25 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Ok, it is at http://pastebin.com/KATsrmfr | 03:25 |
| pfifo | MrKeuner, yes if your shell is /ben/bash on the remote machine | 03:25 |
| pfifo | bin | 03:25 |
| themaster_ | dr_willis how would I do it with that? | 03:25 |
| LABcrab | scientes: Why does this happen? One of my only Ubuntu problems. | 03:26 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: thanks | 03:26 |
| cyclicflux | themaster, that would def. work, or you could source a script in your xsession. But it is important to remember what run-level you want it to occur on. | 03:26 |
| dr_willis | themaster_: edit the file. its a script | 03:26 |
| themaster_ | well it is a flashpolicy daemon | 03:26 |
| cyclicflux | Is anyone familiar with this happening with the hibernate/etc... of the monitor??? I am beginning to think that I am just going to have to recompile the damn kernel to get rid of the excess fat. | 03:26 |
| dr_willis | themaster_: x gui app? | 03:27 |
| MrKeuner | pfifo, what about cron running as your user? can it have the LANG variable when you put it in .profile? | 03:27 |
| themaster_ | No, not GUI its all terminal ubuntu server dr_willis | 03:27 |
| dr_willis | themaster_: try rc.local then | 03:27 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: one more question, did this just start happening recently? | 03:27 |
| pfifo | MrKeuner, cron uses a blank enviroment, you need to take care to setup things correctly in cron | 03:27 |
| themaster_ | dr_willis, it starts like ./flashpolicyd.rb | 03:27 |
| North_ | ihavnoth: Are you Korean? | 03:27 |
| cyclicflux | I am having some kind of strange issue with regard to my monitor intermittently going to sleep while I am using my computer. It goes to sleep fine when it is left, however, when I am using it, it appears that it intermittently goes to sleep. I changed my graphics settings to kms for my ati-5770, and blacklisted the appropriate modules in '/etc/modprobe.d/', as well as updated the 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT', with the 'radeon. | 03:28 |
| cyclicflux | modeset=1', and then ran 'update-grub'. Does anyone know what else it could be? | 03:28 |
| MrKeuner | pfifo, ah OK, always thought my scripts not running well in cron was due to .bashrc .profile .bash_login confusion | 03:28 |
| dr_willis | themaster_: use the full path and end it with & in rc.local | 03:28 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: does it only happen under ubuntu? | 03:29 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I just started with Linux after Christmas this year, and I didn't start using the Roboform Extension until about a week or two afterwards. I really started noticing it after I experienced it a few times which was last weekish. So it's been going on for almost the entire time. | 03:29 |
| evandro | hello | 03:29 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: ok | 03:30 |
| evandro | any asterisk users? | 03:30 |
| evoandroidevo | gtg | 03:30 |
| scientes | !any | 03:30 |
| scientes | evandro, #asterisk | 03:30 |
| evandro | I use freepbx | 03:31 |
| _pr0t0type_ | hey guys, I put some old ppa repository that no longer works (url is dead), I deleted it from my /ect/apt/sources.list, however every time I run 'sudo apt-get update' the upgrade complains about errors from the already deleted deb ppa. Is there anyway to fix this? | 03:31 |
| evandro | I just upgraded from 2.9 to 2.10 and I have problem with IRV | 03:31 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: well it's definitely crashing the X server, and it's not an unknown problem | 03:32 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Is that good or bad? | 03:32 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, well aside from windows and ubuntu, I have had archlinux on here, however, not long enough to see it happen. It starts up, and then I did the kms setting and then it stopped for like a few weeks | 03:33 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, I thought maybe it could have been something in xorg setup. However, ubuntu's is very different than what I am used to with i.e. gentoo, archlinux, slax etc... | 03:34 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: it's good, it'll give me a better idea of how to approach the issue | 03:34 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, I checked the X.org.0.log, and there were no errors, and xsession-errors(I am not that familiar with what to look for in this), as well as the x-configuration | 03:35 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: lemme ask you, are you set on using chrome as your web browser? | 03:35 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: well what I was asking is weather or not your monitor is dying | 03:36 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, I thought it was the monitor however, it doesn't happen on Windows. | 03:36 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Does this mean chrome is the cause? | 03:36 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, It could very well be(its only a year old) | 03:36 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: it looks like there are known conflicts with roboform and chrome on all operating systems | 03:36 |
| DinoMuffin | It might not be an issue on firefox | 03:36 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: That's strange. I haven't noticed it on windows 7 on this laptop or on XP at school. | 03:37 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: well, if the backlight is dying, the monitor will still have a green light | 03:37 |
| troy- | i have 11.10 installed - how can i encrypt the entire fs? | 03:37 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: well, those computers probably aren't using the same version of chrome | 03:37 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, greenlight? And is there a way to check? | 03:38 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: I just updated it. School doesn't preinstall chrome so I do it myself and it's the most recent version. | 03:38 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: if it doesn't have a glowing power button, next time it blanks out, hold a flashlight to the monitor | 03:38 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: if there's still a picture, your backlight or controller is dying | 03:39 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: if there's no picture at all, it just lost signal | 03:39 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, its stating it has lost signal | 03:39 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: I'm not sure how it is for Chrome, but for firefox, it lags behind the windows versions | 03:40 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: ok, nevermind then | 03:40 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, it says something like going into standby-mode. Do you think its something with the acpi/power-mgmt(thats included in ubuntu) for laptops, or pm-utils that is causing it? | 03:40 |
| LABcrab | Did i miss anything regarding how to fix the mouse? | 03:40 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: only two things I can think of that would shutdown the monitor are power settings and the screensaver program | 03:40 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Do you have any idea (no matter how unlikely) why it works for windows but not Ubuntu for me? | 03:41 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, would you like me to pastebin one of my logs for you to see?? | 03:42 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: it's hard to be exactly sure without more information. But there could be an issue between the versions, there could be some rendering issue or memory access violation | 03:42 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: sure | 03:43 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: You said that it lags behind the versions. Does this mean that I have to be patient when I'm logging in and let it load? | 03:43 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: usually things don't take down the Xserver though | 03:43 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, which one would you like to see xsessionerrors?? or syslog-ng?? | 03:44 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: did you say before that it only crashes once and then works fine afterwards? | 03:44 |
| H264 | hey, I have a .deb where the dependency is already met (I compiled and installed it myself), how do I tell dpkg that this dependency is met? | 03:44 |
| Lirth | DInoMuffin: Correct. It takes me to the log in screen. Then I log in and I can open Chrome, do the same thing, and it works fine. | 03:44 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: lemme ask, does it happen when you're typing? Or just when you leave it alone for a few seconds? | 03:45 |
| MrKeuner | hi, how can I change the LANG that sudo uses? | 03:45 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: that is a bit odd | 03:45 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Exactly! | 03:46 |
| MrKeuner | hi, how can I change the LANG that sudo uses? added de_DE.utf8 to /root/.profile but did not work | 03:46 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: lol sorry, it's a pretty complex problem | 03:46 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, it happens most of the time when I am typing, and maybe once when I leave it alone. However, it always happens when I am using the computer(as little as once a week, or as much as 8x's a day). Its been going on for like a few weeks or so | 03:47 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: but it wakes up afterwards right? | 03:47 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: it's almost acting like there is some driver issue | 03:48 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: but that's not something that normally clears up by itself | 03:48 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, yes, if it is in its genuine sleep/hibernation(when I've left the computer). However, when using the PC, and it does it doesn't wake up. Nothing I have tried can wake it, I even tried 'setterm' command from archlinux.org and it didn't work | 03:48 |
| LABcrab | Nobody has a solution for mouse stuck in lower right corner? 10 minutes before i leave. | 03:49 |
| Nach0z | LABcrab: I'm assuming you've tried rebooting? | 03:49 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: that's bizzare too | 03:49 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: almost like its not seeing the interrupt | 03:50 |
| DinoMuffin | man you people and your weird problems today | 03:50 |
| DinoMuffin | lol | 03:50 |
| DinoMuffin | 1 sec | 03:50 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, even though the monitor disconnects like its going to sleep, it really isn't due to the fact its not waking up. | 03:50 |
| unnamed12593 | Could someone point me in the right direction here, I'm trying to figure out what channel I should ask a question regarding creating and mounting volumes using dmsetup on ubuntu. #lvm is completely silent | 03:50 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Thanks for all the help. Honestly, I have no idea why nice people sit in the chat rooms to help out people like me. I really appreciate it though. | 03:51 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, in one of the xsession-error logs, I saw that the gnome-settings-daemon stated it lost connection with the display or screen(or something like that), due to something else using it. However, it didn't disclose what else could be using it. | 03:51 |
| LABcrab | Nach0z: for the mouse? Does nothing. | 03:51 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: no problem :). I enjoy doign it | 03:52 |
| Nach0z | LABcrab: so you HAVE rebooted then. If that didn't help, then I don't know. sounds like either A. a bad driver or B. you got some broke hardware | 03:52 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, hahahahahaha I have never had this happen before | 03:52 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: sometiems these problems get really complicated however | 03:52 |
| LABcrab | Nach0z: will test it on another machine, but yeah, pretty sure it's driver. | 03:53 |
| Nach0z | LABcrab: sorry I can't help more | 03:53 |
| semitones | hello | 03:53 |
| semitones | I'd like to run a script on "resume" -- how can I do that? | 03:53 |
| Lirth | DinoMuffin: Takes a lot of focus and a lot of time. Wish I had either. | 03:54 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: if it happens again, try pressing ctrl + alt + f1 to enter single user mode | 03:54 |
| semitones | I have a command I run every time I resume from sleep. How can I make it a script that runs automatically? | 03:54 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, didn't work, hahahahaha | 03:54 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: :| | 03:54 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, what could take the connection from gnome-settings-daemon? | 03:55 |
| dagerik | Ubuntu is not detecting my external 24' screen's highest resolution. I tried adding the 1920x1080 resolution using xrandr like this: http://folk.ntnu.no/dageriv/images/2012-02-01_04.50.38.png But it "Failed to change the screen configuration!". Suggestions? | 03:55 |
| DinoMuffin | Lirth: i'd reccomend trying it under firefox | 03:55 |
| DinoMuffin | oh he left | 03:55 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, should I maybe re-compile the kernel? Eliminate all modules and make it monolithic? | 03:55 |
| DinoMuffin | :/ | 03:55 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: sorry, i don't remember if i asked, but is this a recent thing that has started happening? | 03:56 |
| Jordan_U | cyclicflux: Making your kernel image more monolithic isn't going to help anything. | 03:57 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, yes, and I know my problem sucks, I would rather have a different one as well!! | 03:57 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: lol | 03:57 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, hahahahaha | 03:57 |
| cyclicflux | Jordan_U, why wouldn't it? | 03:57 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: well, if its something that just started happening recently... | 03:58 |
| Jordan_U | cyclicflux: Becuase it's the same code, with the same policy, either way. Why would it? | 03:58 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: i know the kernel was updated a few days ago | 03:58 |
| Barblah | Hi all. I just upgraded a 10.04.3 machine and got a firefox9 upgrade. is firefox 3.6 deprecated on 10.4.3? | 03:59 |
| DinoMuffin | hmmmmmmz | 03:59 |
| Barblah | and is there anyway to downgrade to 3.6.x? | 03:59 |
| cyclicflux | Jordan_U, to stream-line it, minimize excess code, as well as load-time, which not only would boost performance it would minimize the likelihood for error, which if my history serves me right is the reason they initially created the monolithic kernel for Multix | 03:59 |
| Nach0z | Barblah: I don't think there's ANY way to get firefox 3.6 on ubuntu anymore. that's olllld. | 04:00 |
| floorlava | I have no forward-back icons in epiphany, or power button on GDM. What icon pack am I missing? | 04:00 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: well, the fact that single user mode isn't overriding the blank tells me it's gotta be a kernel or driver issue | 04:00 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, you want me to pastebin the dmesg log | 04:00 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: what's your graphics adapter? | 04:00 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: sure | 04:00 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, ati5770 | 04:00 |

| gopiballava | "The attempt to mount a file system with type swap in SCSI3 (0,0,0), partition #6 (sdb) at none failed" | 04:01 |
| LABcrab | Good night y'all and thanks! | 04:01 |
| gopiballava | Why is it trying to set up swap on sdb? Swap is supposed to be sda2 | 04:01 |
| Jordan_U | cyclicflux: Building modules into the kernel doesn't actually make the code more monolithic. Reducing the modules, and thus code, that are loaded *might* make a difference, but I very much doubt it. Most bugs are in the logic of the code interaction with hardware. Neither of those is going to change by building your module into the kernel. | 04:02 |
| righteousRat | anyone know how to launch a desktop gui over x11 | 04:02 |
| Jordan_U | cyclicflux: *logic of the code or interaction with hardware. | 04:02 |
| DinoMuffin | the ati driver might also be buggy now | 04:03 |
| gopiballava | It just hangs at this point. I've tried a few times. | 04:03 |
| righteousRat | ive seen someone do ssh'd into centos with some command. i think it had nautilus and gnome in the command name but i cant recall at the moment | 04:03 |
| Barblah | righteousRat: you mean X forwarding? as in, ssh -YCc blowfish user@host xeyes | 04:03 |
| righteousRat | hmm let me rephrase my question. anyone know how to launch the desktop gui through ssh -X user@domain | 04:03 |
| DinoMuffin | try starting the file browser when in the ssh session | 04:04 |
| righteousRat | Barblah: theres a command you type in the terminal you ssh'd into and it launches a desktop window | 04:04 |
| righteousRat | but i cant recall. was hoping someone here might remember it | 04:04 |
| righteousRat | even just a file browser really would be fine | 04:04 |
| gopiballava | Booting from USB. Any suggestions? | 04:04 |
| Barblah | righteousRat: nautilus is what you would want then | 04:04 |
| DinoMuffin | when in the session, type nautilus | 04:04 |
| DinoMuffin | yeah | 04:05 |
| righteousRat | thanks Barblah | 04:05 |

| gopiballava | I've never had much trouble with Linux installers, *especially* not just randomly hanging with silly error messages like this. | 04:06 |
| gopiballava | Any suggestions for a less broken installer? CLI installer? | 04:08 |
| * Gnea frowns at the fact that the flashplugin-installer for 11.04 doesn't install anything that works on amd64 with chromium | 04:09 | |
| cyclicflux | Jordan_U, the basis for my statement was due to the fact that there are unnecessary modules with the ubuntu install things for laptop power-mgmt/etc, and although the modules are blacklisted, and the kernel has the right modules, there could still be memory mismanagement from other miscellaneous modules that didn't get filtered in the kernel's logic. Many times I would agree, however, this problem is something that I have tried | 04:09 |
| cyclicflux | many things to solve and yet it hasn't worked | 04:09 |
| gopiballava | Told it not to use swap. Still doing it. | 04:09 |
| gopiballava | bloody hell. | 04:09 |
| cyclicflux | Jordan_U, while other very lean distros i.e. gentoo/archlinux that are fully-customizable and everything is compiled on system I have never had this problem with. Plus, the ubuntu packages have a tendency of lagging a bit with regard to versions of the code | 04:10 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, what do you think. I will gladly pastebin my dmesg log or any other log | 04:11 |
| DinoMuffin | dmesg would be a good start | 04:11 |
| gopiballava | What Linux distribution should I switch to? Cause I don't have the patience to deal with installers that hang like this. | 04:11 |
| dr_willis | gopiballava: go to the distrowatch website and pick one | 04:12 |

| ben_zen | hey, so I've got a question about how the LiveCD creates what it sees as a « hard drive » | 04:12 |
| J7 | my microphone isn't working. can someone please help me? | 04:13 |
| DinoMuffin | !tmpfs | 04:13 |
| J7 | it's the jack | 04:13 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: you mean the temp file system? | 04:13 |
| J7 | the microphone input won't work | 04:13 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, I checked X.org's site for the ati-5770 support and it is fully supported for KMS, and benchmarks from phoronix state it is undoubtedly faster. The one semi-weird thing I think is that of the connector I am using and that is I believe a parallel port to vga connector(this came with the computer) | 04:14 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: sort of, I guess. | 04:14 |
| DinoMuffin | J7: go to your alsamixer and check the mic level | 04:14 |
| ben_zen | (I'm trying to figure out if I've got a bad memory slot or bad firmware, and this may be the solution.) | 04:14 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: oh? booting issues? | 04:15 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: no booting issues | 04:15 |
| ben_zen | but I installed two 4GB SODIMMs and it's telling me it only sees one | 04:15 |
| ben_zen | even after flipping them | 04:15 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: did you post your dmesg? | 04:16 |
| ben_zen | however, when I loaded up the live cd, it said I had 3.6GiB of RAM, and 3.9GB of disk space | 04:16 |
| ben_zen | that looks mysteriously similar to a full 8GB of RAM installed to me. | 04:16 |
| === BELGIUM is now known as GreatA`Tuin | ||
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: were you using a 32x cd? | 04:16 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: no, AMD64 | 04:16 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: well tmpfs has a max size limit | 04:18 |
| DinoMuffin | I think it defaults to half physical ram size | 04:18 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: that answered my question, I think. The answer isn't pretty, but that's what I was wondering about. | 04:19 |
| DinoMuffin | I can link you to further specs if you'd like | 04:19 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: yeah, definitely. I just want to be sure that's what's up | 04:20 |
| DinoMuffin | I don't remember if a livecd retains that limit or not, but it would make sense given what youv'e said | 04:20 |
| ben_zen | (since now I get to yell at Apple about EFI not working) | 04:20 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/marcelo/linux-2.4/Documentation/filesystems/tmpfs.txt | 04:20 |
| ben_zen | yep, half of physical RAM. | 04:21 |
| ben_zen | Which means Ubuntu could read everything in my system ... | 04:21 |
| ben_zen | but the Apple Hardware Tool, OS X itself, and memtest couldn't … -_- | 04:21 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: osx couldn't read >4gb o_O | 04:22 |
| J7 | my mic levels are all the way up, DinoMuffin | 04:22 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: I think it's an EFI problem | 04:22 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: oh | 04:22 |
| ben_zen | because it's only reading the existence of a SODIMM in bank0/dimm0 | 04:22 |
| ben_zen | bank1/dimm0 reads as empty | 04:22 |
| DinoMuffin | ben_zen: weird | 04:23 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: in a word, yes. This was happening before, too, I discovered … when I cracked the case, expecting to see one DIMM, and saw two. | 04:23 |
| ben_zen | (I upgraded from 4GB to 8GB today, only I thought I was upgrading from 2GB) | 04:23 |
| DinoMuffin | J7: what are you trying to do, if you don't mind me asking? | 04:24 |
| J7 | I'm trying to get my mic to work on Skype, DinoMuffin | 04:24 |
| J7 | it doesn't work for anything, DinoMuffin | 04:24 |
| byoungmn | Is the mic working on anything else??? | 04:25 |
| J7 | ni | 04:25 |
| J7 | no | 04:25 |
| === _skpl is now known as R_zr | ||
| byoungmn | Oh, you answered that | 04:25 |
| J7 | I know the mic itself works | 04:25 |
| J7 | works with other computers | 04:26 |
| byoungmn | Do the speakers work | 04:26 |
| J7 | yes | 04:26 |
| byoungmn | just not the mic | 04:27 |
| ben_zen | DinoMuffin: thanks for the help! | 04:27 |
| J7 | byoungman, that's right | 04:28 |
| J7 | byoungmn, that is correct | 04:28 |
| byoungmn | Are you sure the mic port on the card is good | 04:29 |
| J7 | no, i'm not | 04:29 |
| byoungmn | I'd first try a meter on the port and see if your gettign a signal from the port | 04:30 |
| gopiballava | Ok, bug report for the installer filed. | 04:30 |
| byoungmn | play some music | 04:30 |
| byoungmn | into the mic | 04:31 |
| byoungmn | or a card if you have a known good one | 04:32 |
| harris | hello | 04:32 |
| DinoMuffin | hi | 04:32 |
| harris | i tried making linux USB bootable | 04:33 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, well thanks for your help, I know there is some logical explanation for it, however as of now no one has been sure. I feel like I need to find someone or some instructions that are very very illustrative of the inner-workings of x, framebuffer, graphics/video, & debugging the kernel. This is undoubtedly the most terrible of terrible problems. | 04:33 |
| harris | on thumbdrive | 04:33 |
| harris | i tried unetbootin | 04:33 |
| cyclicflux | hahahahahahahahaha | 04:33 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: lol, sorry bout that | 04:33 |
| harris | but my computer will not boot from it, it keeps getting stuck on here http://askubuntu.com/questions/68781/installation-problems-on-dell-xps-15z | 04:33 |
| harris | and keeps refreshing | 04:33 |
| harris | i used a sandisk cruzer usb drive, could that sandisk be the problem? | 04:33 |
| kurtul | how can i type 5digit unicode characters? i can type 4 digits using ctrl+shift+u+4digit. | 04:34 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, its all good you def. recommended everything that I eventually found to do in the past few weeks. Do you think I should move up to ubuntu 11.04, I am using ubuntu 10.04 Backtrack 5 R1 with gnome2 | 04:34 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, as of now | 04:34 |
| em | is there a way to view all used sockets and release them if wanted? | 04:34 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: oh, any reason you're holding back? | 04:35 |
| Guest12237 | hello all, Is it possible to encrypt the main folder after i have already installed ubuntu.or can that only bee done via installation | 04:35 |
| DinoMuffin | harris: probably not | 04:36 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, because I am using backtrack's ubuntu. Is there a way to avoid having to re-install by changing the sources.list, and going with the official ubuntu 11.04 repositories??? | 04:36 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, it does look pretty sick, it being ubuntu 11.04 | 04:36 |
| Guest12237 | anyone know | 04:37 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: it's not something i've attempted before | 04:37 |
| Guest12237 | if i can somehow encrypt my files after the installation proccess | 04:37 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, I know typically one would only have to do a 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' followed by an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' | 04:37 |
| benbloom | is tehre a way to route my webcam through vlc, in such a way that skype will recognize vlc's output as a webcam? | 04:37 |
| cyclicflux | DinoMuffin, do you think it would work?? | 04:38 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: for backtrack? | 04:38 |
| Guest12237 | that sounds interesting benbloom? | 04:38 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: i doubt going from bt to stock ubuntu through updates would go smoothly | 04:39 |
| Guest12237 | Does Anyone know if it is possible to turn on encryption for my main folder After the installation process | 04:39 |
| benbloom | well Guest12237, most webcams come with a bundled app that allows you to preprocess video before skype/msn or whatever. I'm looking to VLC to do the same i guess | 04:39 |
| DinoMuffin | depends on how the kernel handles the camera | 04:40 |
| Guest12237 | Yea true my logitech has this little program that lets you add things to it like back grounds etc. it also allows you to Pan tilt and zoom | 04:40 |
| Guest12237 | pre skype | 04:40 |
| Guest12237 | Does Anyone know if it is possible to turn on encryption for my main folder After the installation process | 04:40 |

| Guest12237 | thanks | 04:41 |
| DinoMuffin | harris: you mean the mac address? | 04:42 |
| Guest12237 | is this the same thing that is available in the installation process | 04:42 |
| DinoMuffin | or sorry not mac address | 04:43 |
| DinoMuffin | media access control | 04:43 |
| DinoMuffin | wait | 04:43 |
| Guest12237 | i assumed it encrypted all of your files, from the glance that i gave it it looks like it makes a ./private dir | 04:43 |
| Ben64 | mac address | 04:43 |
| DinoMuffin | damn i need to go to bed | 04:43 |
| DinoMuffin | my brain decided they weren't the same thing for some reaosn | 04:44 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, werrrrrd!!! I am going to have to get going to bed as well shortly myself | 04:44 |
| cyclicflux | dinomuffin, thanks again bro | 04:44 |
| DinoMuffin | cyclicflux: no prob man | 04:44 |

| noyb | Hello. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10. When I tried to mount a cd-rom using gmount I got the little gmount-iso window. It asks for the "image file (.iso). No matter what I try it seems impossible to mount. I've also tried using the command line. I've looked online for a gmount tutorial. The only ones I've found assume that you know how to figure out what the .iso file is on the cd-rom you are trying to mount. I am thoroughly confused. Any idea | 04:55 |
| redscare | is there anything that I can do to bind keys to window actions | 04:55 |
| noyb | s, anybody. Thanks in advance from a lost noob. | 04:55 |
| Ben64 | noyb: i'm confused, are you trying to mount a cd or an iso | 04:56 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: what command did you try? | 04:56 |
| rick__ | its coded like the book says | 04:56 |
| rick__ | and it has always worked | 04:57 |

| cheapie | I accidentaly melted my keyboard. Can somebody suggest a good virtual keyboard? | 04:57 |
| Ben64 | noyb: you don't need a cd for a router | 04:57 |
| harris | i want to make a bootable USB linux that actually works | 04:58 |
| harris | how? | 04:58 |
| pedahzur | Does anyone know why Chromium Browser is at v16 for i386 but only v14 for AMD64? | 04:58 |
| pedahzur | harris: unetbootin | 04:58 |
| dagerik | harris: Use startup disk creator or some other tool for creating startupdisks. One such other program is unetbootin | 04:59 |
| DinoMuffin | harris: what drive are you using? | 04:59 |
| noyb | Ben64... originally, I set up the router with the cd-rom... then forgot my password... I want to reset & reinstall the software... to do that I assume that I will need to use the cd-rom... just like last time. Yes? No? | 04:59 |
| cheapie | Hello? Anybody? | 04:59 |
| Ben64 | noyb: you can reset the router with the button on the back of it | 04:59 |
| noyb | understood... | 04:59 |
| DinoMuffin | resetting the router doesn't erase the firmware | 05:00 |
| Ben64 | noyb: also, the software on the cd is unnecessary and probably windows only | 05:00 |
| goddard | i can't click on the flash "Allow" button | 05:00 |
| goddard | it does nothing | 05:00 |
| LordKow | but resetting a router does reset the settings. beyond that there is not much else for a router reset button to reset. | 05:00 |
| DinoMuffin | cheapie: why not buy a new keyboard? | 05:00 |
| gandhijee | hey is there away to get a list of the recently installed packages, and what they mighthave changed? | 05:01 |
| goddard | anyone know how i can click it? | 05:01 |
| noyb | thanks, DinoMuffin... understood LordKow... be all that as it may... the real question is how to mount the cd-rom... | 05:01 |
| harris | i used UNETbootin | 05:02 |
| noyb | that is my primary area of confusion... or maybe not :-) | 05:02 |
| buntu | Can I use a capture card in ubuntu without mythtv? | 05:02 |
| harris | but now everytime i try to boot into the USB it gets stuck on the loadign screen | 05:02 |
| Ben64 | noyb: the software on the cd will most likely not work in ubuntu | 05:02 |
| cheapie | DinoMuffin: I don't think my parents will take me to the store right now. I'm supposed to be sleeping... | 05:03 |
| harris | i keep getting stuck here: http://www.liberiangeek.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Install-Ubuntu-.04-Natty-Narwhal-via-USB_AB0F/natty_unethbootin_3.png | 05:03 |
| LordKow | noyb, no router should require software to be setup. so, I would maybe go to the router manufacturer's website and find the setup instructions there. having said that, ubuntu should still be able to mount the cd whether it can run the software or not. | 05:03 |
| DinoMuffin | cheapie: i don't know of any that work *well*, but there are a few in the ubuntu package manager | 05:03 |
| noyb | hmmm... on the envelope it says "for mac and linux users please use the documentation on the cd located in the 'docs' folder... | 05:03 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: why do you need the cd in the first place? | 05:03 |
| LordKow | router or dsl modem? | 05:04 |
| harris | is LUBUNTU compatible with unetbootin? | 05:04 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: I can't think of why ubuntu would need extra software to use or access a router | 05:05 |
| cheapie | DinoMuffin: OK. I'll try taking it apart and pressing the rubber domes. | 05:05 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... because I can't get into my router to tweak it because I forgot my password & the only way to get in is to start over with a fresh install which can only be accomplished with the cd... unless I'm more of a noob than I thought. | 05:05 |
| Ben64 | noyb: just hold down the reset button on the back of the router for about 30 seconds | 05:05 |
| noyb | understood... | 05:06 |
| LordKow | harris, you might have better luck asking in #lubuntu | 05:06 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: usually you can hold the reset button down for 10 seconds and it will reset it to factoy defaults | 05:06 |
| noyb | understood... | 05:06 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: then look up the model of your router and find the default password | 05:06 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: it's usually some combination of admin and password | 05:06 |
| urlin2u | harris, should be but there are other usb loader look at pendrivelinux | 05:07 |
| urlin2u | loaders* | 05:07 |
| harris | ok, should my drive be FAT32 or NTFS? or it does not matter? | 05:07 |
| urlin2u | harris, fat32 | 05:07 |
| harris | how can i see what my drive is right now? | 05:07 |
| harris | from windows 7 | 05:08 |
| harris | oh nevermind, it is fat32 alread | 05:08 |
| urlin2u | harris, in the disk utility in ubuntu or install gparted it is a partitioner as well | 05:08 |
| harris | should i format it and try again with pendrivelinux? i already made one with unetbootin | 05:08 |
| ubuntunewbie | Hello users , may i know how to access the files located in ubuntu ..those files are on the same partition in which ubuntu has been installed... did wubi... | 05:08 |
| urlin2u | harris, in ubuntu you can right click the thumb icon and format as well. | 05:08 |
| noyb | ok... but my problem remains the same... not the router... but how do I mount the cd... as I said, I tried using gmount as well as the command line... until I figure that out everything else is secondary... maybe I didn't explain myself clearly enough at first... it's been a l-o-n-g day. | 05:09 |
| dagerik | noyb: check out the mount commanad | 05:09 |
| noyb | tried that | 05:09 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: you can mount a cd rom drive with: "sudo mkdir /media/cd ; sudo mount /dev/<cd drive> /media/cd" | 05:09 |
| DinoMuffin | <cd drive> being the block device for the drive. ususally sr0 | 05:09 |
| harris | http://www.pendrivelinux.com which one do i get? | 05:09 |
| DinoMuffin | unmount with "sudo umount /media/cd" | 05:10 |
| noyb | I'll give it a try DinoMuffin... brb | 05:12 |
| cordoval | where do i find this folder? cd /apacheserverroot/conf/ssl.key (ssl.key is the default key directory.) | 05:14 |
| buntu | Is the ubuntu software center downloading things very slow - is that my problem or perhaps the application I'm downloading? | 05:15 |
| Zandow-X | hello | 05:15 |
| urlin2u | harris, one that is for linux | 05:15 |
| urlin2u | harris, I think unetbootin will do it have youtried? | 05:15 |
| Zandow-X | alguien habla español?? | 05:15 |
| urlin2u | !es | Zandow-X | 05:16 |
| ubottu | Zandow-X: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 05:16 |
| harris | yes i tried unetbootin, but now i am trying pendrivelinux | 05:16 |
| Zandow-X | jeje es que en ubuntu-es nadie responde | 05:16 |
| Zandow-X | veo que aca hay mas movimiento | 05:16 |
| cordoval | where do i find this ssl.key folderS? | 05:16 |
| cordoval | cd /apacheserverroot/conf/ssl.key (ssl.key is the default key directory.) | 05:16 |
| Ben64 | Zandow-X: this is an English only channel | 05:16 |
| haylo | buntu in my experiance software center gets about 100 kb.s so yeah its slow | 05:16 |
| haylo | but not tooo slow | 05:17 |
| haylo | there are slower repos to draw from | 05:17 |
| haylo | try an unsupported local us repo if you really like fast DLs | 05:17 |
| goddard | i can't click on the flash "Allow" button | 05:17 |
| haylo | or whatever countries i snearest you | 05:18 |
| cheapie_ | DinoMuffin: I just wanted to let you know that it is working now that I removed the top cover. I am pressing the little rubber domes manually. | 05:18 |
| buntu | hallo thank you. | 05:19 |
| saikat | can anyone tell me how to set 1200x800 resolution in ubuntu 10.04 | 05:19 |
| saikat | using xrandr | 05:20 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... typed in both items as per your suggestion... although the command line says /media/cd file exists. when i try to access it then it says it can't find /dev/sr0/media/cd in /etc/fstab or | 05:20 |
| noyb | sorry... | 05:20 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 05:20 |
| urlin2u | harris, I use this one the page is in french if you have your flash block turned off it will let you do a google translate, read carefully I suspect you may have problems, but works you just have to know how to load it. AND use gparted to format the thumb to fat32, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ | 05:21 |
| urlin2u | *it | 05:21 |
| noyb | maybe I should go back to using an abacus... :-) | 05:21 |
| Guest12237 | cya | 05:21 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: type lsblk | 05:21 |
| noyb | Isblk | 05:22 |
| DinoMuffin | L | 05:22 |
| urlin2u | harris, I guess it has a download from there now so follow the directions | 05:22 |
| noyb | lsblk | 05:22 |
| DinoMuffin | yes | 05:22 |
| noyb | ok | 05:22 |
| DinoMuffin | it will show what the block device is fior your cd | 05:22 |
| DinoMuffin | probably at the end | 05:22 |
| noyb | ok... checking | 05:23 |
| harris | pendrivelinux worked! | 05:23 |
| harris | it worked really well! | 05:23 |
| harris | thanks | 05:23 |
| harris | do i HAVE to format the usb drive before doing this process? | 05:23 |
| saikat | i need to set 1200x800 display resolution in ubuntu 10.04 | 05:25 |
| saikat | can anyone help me | 05:25 |
| Miggs | Quick check with you guys - should a Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz/4GB/Nvidia m8400GS laptop be laggy with Ubuntu 11.10 in either Unity or Gnome Shell? I don't think it should be but I'm having the damnedest time working out the problem. | 05:25 |
| noyb | format: name - maj:min - rm - size - ro - mountpoint... as follows: sr0 - 11:0 - 1 - 76.5m - 0 - /media/DIR-615B2 | 05:26 |
| xangua | Miggs: try a live cd and see | 05:26 |
| __vincent | is ubuntu currently the FASTEST distro? | 05:26 |
| Miggs | xangua: which live cd? I've got 11.10 on here now and it's laggy and often only does partial screen updates for several seconds. | 05:27 |
| aeon-ltd | __vincent: fastest for what? | 05:27 |
| __vincent | boot time and app start up | 05:27 |
| __vincent | and execution | 05:27 |
| aeon-ltd | __vincent: heheh no | 05:27 |
| aeon-ltd | sadly | 05:27 |
| __vincent | which one would you recommend | 05:27 |
| xangua | !ot | __vincent | 05:27 |
| ubottu | __vincent: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:27 |
| aeon-ltd | __vincent: depends on how much you know and how much spare time you've got | 05:27 |
| __vincent | you cant compile kernel in ubuntu? | 05:28 |
| aeon-ltd | __vincent: you can | 05:28 |
| xangua | you can also try ##linux for a linux general discussion __vincent , but Lubuntu is the lighter flavor of ubuntu, uses lxde destop and few resources | 05:28 |
| aeon-ltd | __vincent: i'll meet you in ##linux | 05:28 |
| rick__ | anyone know how to change the channel on smuxi to #html | 05:30 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... format: name - maj:min - rm - size - ro - mountpoint... as follows: sr0 - 11:0 - 1 - 76.5m - 0 - /media/DIR-615B2 | 05:30 |
| rick__ | window | 05:31 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... is /media/DIR-615B2 the block device you spoke of? | 05:31 |
| sartan | ack, forget the package to install to return the old gnome behavior instead of unity.. gnome-something, and apt-cache search is giving me a few too hundred many results | 05:31 |
| rick__ | help please | 05:32 |
| Ben64 | rick__: /join #html | 05:33 |
| sqeeKEY | Does anyone know how to use fbsplash? | 05:33 |
| cheapie_ | Finished working on my keyboard. Turns out I have 4 backslash keys. | 05:34 |
| DinoMuffin | oh | 05:35 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: there's a space between those two paramaters you put in earlier | 05:35 |
| __vincent | i cant write to that channel | 05:35 |
| __vincent | what do you think of this article http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_arch_faster&num=1 | 05:35 |
| DinoMuffin | it should look exactly like this: sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd | 05:35 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, where you getting it from? | 05:36 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... I'll try it again | 05:36 |
| LordKow | sartan, perhaps you are looking for gnome-session-fallback | 05:36 |
| sartan | that sounds right, thanks. | 05:36 |
| cheapie_ | Now... is there a way to change the num lock state via software? | 05:36 |
| dagerik | I just noticed remote desktop is on my startup applications. Is thi sby default in 10.04? | 05:37 |
| urlin2u | dagerik, yes | 05:38 |
| acidrain | i have installed a gtk user interface for an application. when i type "monosim" as the tutorial suggests, i get command not found. any solutions? | 05:38 |
| urlin2u | dagerik, not setup you have to do that. | 05:38 |
| dagerik | urlin2u: I dont understand your last sentence | 05:38 |
| sartan | LordKow: aced it, that was exactly what i was looking for. thanks mate | 05:39 |
| acerimmer | dagerik: yes. | 05:39 |
| urlin2u | dagerik, you have to set up a remote desktop situation, I never have myself . | 05:39 |
| noyb | DinoMuffin... typed it exactly... heard the cd drive spool up... "command line says: "mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only | 05:39 |
| urlin2u | !remotedesktop | 05:40 |
| DinoMuffin | that's fine | 05:40 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: go to /media/cd in your file browser and the files will be there | 05:40 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u, I have not got it yet, but just doing some research. I would like to set a background image for the console, I do not use X | 05:40 |
| DinoMuffin | noyb: unmount it later with: sudo umount /media/cd | 05:40 |
| DinoMuffin | now it is nappytime | 05:40 |
| DinoMuffin | g'night | 05:40 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u, I believe I must recompile the kernel for it to work. | 05:41 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, not in the ubuntu repos not really supported here per say, does not mean nobody will help but I would not hold my breath. | 05:41 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, I think this is it not sure really. http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/07/connect-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-remote-desktop-windows-machines/ | 05:42 |
| noyb | thanks, DinoMuffin... later | 05:42 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, maybe not either. | 05:42 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: remote-desktop-windows? | 05:43 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, there are a number of ways people remote to other computers if you have an I dea what you want to do I would just ask how to do that here. | 05:43 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: I do not want to remote.. I would like to set the background image for a TTY | 05:44 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: I think it uses framebuffer | 05:44 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, way outside my pay range. :D | 05:44 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: well, thanks for trying ;) | 05:45 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, np. | 05:45 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: gentoo, & backtrack both have a nice fbsplash..ubuntu has a splash image for the boot menu but the console is still just black | 05:45 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, I use burg it is adequate, there is appa for it. | 05:46 |
| urlin2u | a ppa* | 05:46 |
| thetinyjesus | does anyone know when ios 5 support will happen? | 05:46 |
| Ben64 | thetinyjesus: what support | 05:47 |
| thetinyjesus | i can mount my iphone 4s, but when I transfer it says it's successful but the songs don't show up | 05:47 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, burg is awhole bootloader though just to get a image to choose from you would want to know how to load the mbr. | 05:47 |
| Zandow-X | i phone sucks!!! | 05:47 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: burg looks cool | 05:47 |
| Zandow-X | burg is cool XD | 05:48 |
| thetinyjesus | actually it does not suck it is nice to have a phone that never crashes or needs to be rebooted kinda like linux on a pc | 05:48 |
| urlin2u | I have like 5 OS right now on my HD so burg looks nicer with all those kernel lines | 05:48 |
| thetinyjesus | i just didn't know if there was a way to actually transfer music to an ios 5 device yet | 05:49 |
| sherif | hi guys anyone knows how to make flash applications works faster on ubuntu | 05:49 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: what do you need 5 OS for..ubuntu is the only thing needed ;) | 05:50 |

| almoxarife | sherif: which flash version you using? | 05:51 |
| sqeeKEY | urlin2u: yeah, I use virtualbox :D | 05:51 |
| obelich | one question anyone know where can download the brainstorm in clean ? http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ | 05:51 |
| sherif | urlin2u how cud i know? | 05:51 |
| urlin2u | sqeeKEY, I only have a netbook with 2 gigs ram, so they run to slow in a virtual. | 05:51 |
| urlin2u | bullgard4, how would we know? | 05:52 |
| obelich | or any app like ubuntu brainstorm | 05:54 |
| obelich | ? | 05:54 |
| sherif | urlin2u i update my system from update manager is flash included? | 05:54 |
| sherif | urlin2u or it has different update? | 05:54 |
| urlin2u | sherif, not n a stock setup in chromium I don't know don't use it. | 05:54 |
| urlin2u | in | 05:54 |
| sherif | almoxarife how cud i know | 05:54 |
| sherif | urlin2u do u use mozilla? | 05:55 |
| urlin2u | sherif, yeah F with some select addons runs pretty fast. | 05:55 |
| urlin2u | firefox | 05:55 |
| === Guest24907 is now known as Octane | ||
| sherif | urlin2u i c so there shud be addons for chromium too right? | 05:56 |
| almoxarife | bullgard4: http://identi.ca/conversation/89569647#notice-89757060 <-- that help? | 05:56 |
| urlin2u | sherif, don't use it not sure, if there is not even a 1% of FF's addons at best | 05:57 |
| urlin2u | sherif, what is your chip speed and ram amount? | 05:57 |
| almoxarife | sherif: u kud luk at i-der extensions or plugins | 05:57 |
| sherif | urlin2u dont know but flas works well on windows | 05:58 |
| sherif | almoxarife where is that | 05:58 |
| sherif | flash* | 05:58 |
| goddard | anyone used luckyBackup? | 05:59 |
| urlin2u | goddard, I like grsync better for a gui back up using rsync. | 06:00 |
| almoxarife | sherif: flash is an installed app, what ever you use to install apps should allow you to look for 'flash', i use synaptic, so i would look for 'flash' in the 'installed' tab, i would see that i installed the official adobe flash for amd64 | 06:01 |
| urlin2u | goddard, you want a full OS backup? | 06:01 |
| goddard | urlin2u: complete as possible would be nice but mostly just configuration settings and home information | 06:02 |
| goddard | urlin2u: i would like the option though so i can make a complete back up at times but then switch to a simple one later | 06:02 |
| urlin2u | goddard, I just use grsync for home and clonezilla for the whole OS. | 06:02 |
| sherif | almoxarife its adobe flash plugin for mozilla maybe thats y it doesnt work well with chromium | 06:02 |
| almoxarife | goddard: when you are done fiddling with all the various methods look at 'deja-dup', its too simple and allows for restoring via nautilus files/folders | 06:03 |
| goddard | urlin2u: ahh nice those look good | 06:04 |
| goddard | anyone else have problems with flash that needs you to click their warning menu ? i can't click on the flash "Allow" button | 06:04 |
| almoxarife | sherif: no, cant be, i use chromium, and adobe flash 64, then again 'fast' is relative, i dont know what you are seeing that is 'slow' | 06:04 |
| urlin2u | goddard, I also have all ny own stuff on a external drive mostly just the OS on the netbook. | 06:05 |
| sherif | almoxarifeflashplugin-installer 11.1.102.55ubuntu0.11.10.1 i have this version installed | 06:05 |
| sherif | almoxarife flashplugin-installer 11.1.102.55ubuntu0.11.10.1 | 06:06 |
| almoxarife | goddard: flash running on what comes up with a warning? | 06:06 |
| urlin2u | !rsync | 06:06 |
| ubottu | rsync is a fast remote file copy and synchronization program - For more see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync | 06:06 |
| sherif | almoxarife when u play flash games on facebook its very slow | 06:06 |
| bullgard4 | almoxarife: How does http://identi.ca/conversation/89569647#notice-89757060 answer my question? | 06:06 |
| codepython777 | I want to convert a png file to a windows ".ico"file on ubuntu. I tried "convert" but it errors out --convert: width or height exceeds limit -- any other ideas? | 06:07 |
| almoxarife | sherif: i have 'adobe-flash' installed, you on a 32bit system? | 06:07 |
| sherif | almoxarife yes | 06:08 |
| almoxarife | bullgard4: should have answered the 'who' wrote it | 06:08 |
| LordKow | codepython777, i believe you want your png to be 256x256 or smaller, has to be square as well | 06:09 |
| sherif | almoxarife is it adobe flash plugin 11 | 06:09 |
| codepython777 | LordKow: it indeed is | 06:09 |
| almoxarife | sherif: yeap | 06:09 |
| bullgard4 | almoxarife: You said: "{It} should." But did it? | 06:09 |
| codepython777 | i even tried 128x128 -- same error | 06:09 |
| LordKow | what about 48x48 just for testing purposes? | 06:10 |
| sherif | almoxarife there are 2 softwares in the software store | 06:10 |
| almoxarife | sherif: do i guess what they are? | 06:10 |
| codepython777 | cant live with that size | 06:10 |
| urlin2u | codelurker, resize in gimp | 06:11 |
| acerimmer | codepython777: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa511280.aspx | 06:11 |
| Jimu_ | Ubuntu's (11.10) default desktop is Gnome 3? Unity is just the launcher on the left, right? | 06:11 |
| urlin2u | codepython777, resize in gimp | 06:11 |
| bullgard4 | Jimu_: No. | 06:11 |
| urlin2u | Jimu_, unity is its own desktop, nt gnome 3 | 06:11 |

| idarkside | how can i install sslv2 on ubuntu | 06:13 |
| Jimu_ | Okay, so Unity is Gtk 3.0 then? Cause I can alter the desktop icon text colors under /usr/share/themes/THEMENAME/...something i forget | 06:13 |

| LordKow | Jimu_, do not feel like you're the only lost linux user, most are. there are layers upon layers of APIs | 06:14 |
| Jimu_ | If I'm trying to learn how to create a window/shell theme for Ubuntu's Unity, do I aim for Gtk 3.0? | 06:15 |
| LordKow | frontends to the frontends of the backends which frontend ten more backends and it never ends | 06:15 |
| almoxarife | sherif: when all is done i dont think you will see any appreciable change, but who knows, i believe your slow flash is a slow connection | 06:15 |
| Jimu_ | LordKow: heh, yep | 06:15 |
| idarkside | possible | 06:15 |
| sherif | almoxarife i dont think so its 1 mega and i told u it works very fine on windows | 06:15 |
| idarkside | ? | 06:15 |
| bullgard4 | almoxarife: i asked at the outset: "Who is the user of »User ID 324821 « in http://www.identi.ca/ubuntudev?" Now you are telling me "google is a power tool." Is that all you are able to answer this question? I know Goggle well, and this does not answer my question at the outset. | 06:15 |
| scriptwarlock | The problem is the login screen is divided into two showing a onscreen keyboard like thing in the left side and the same magnified in the other side | 06:16 |
| scriptwarlock | anyone? | 06:16 |
| almoxarife | sherif: windows then sounds like the ticket, i am telling you now | 06:16 |
| scriptwarlock | anyone knows how to sort this out?: The problem is the login screen is divided into two showing a onscreen keyboard like thing in the left side and the same magnified in the other side | 06:17 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: this is on a desktop computer? | 06:17 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: yes | 06:17 |
| idarkside | how can i install sslv2 on ubuntu please | 06:17 |
| sherif | almoxarife wut ticket? | 06:17 |
| Ben64 | you can install flash from adobe.com | 06:17 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: and this happened on a new install, or maybe a reboot after an ill-conceived config change? | 06:17 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: can't launch safe mode can't type any letters nothing but a magnifier | 06:17 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: not fresh install | 06:18 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: kids playing the login screen, darn | 06:18 |
| Ben64 | have you tried turning it off and then on again? | 06:19 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: but i have now fired the live cd but i need to locate the on screen keyboard to disable, you have idea where to hunt the config? | 06:19 |
| idarkside | _m2crypto is calling sslv2qq in ubuntu n i need to fix it plz | 06:19 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: ugh, that's the worst. The right side of the screen is a magnified view of the left side? does it move? i don't know anything about it, but this is gathering details | 06:20 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: yeah worst than i think of, yes magnified but it's black so i'm dead blind to the login screen. | 06:20 |
| Jimu_ | sounds like two different accessibility features at once - a zoom feature and the virtual keyboard feature. I'd start by looking up how to turn on and off those features on the login. The kids didn't actually log in, right? so it must be settings you can make from the login? | 06:22 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: yeah | 06:23 |
| urlin2u | scriptwarlock, your going to have to change your nic now. :D | 06:24 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: the only remedy i think was to hunt down the conf file via live cd heres the command to disable but i have no clue where to find this file "sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 /desktop/gnome/applications/at/screen_magnifier_enabled --type bool --set false" | 06:24 |
| scriptwarlock | urlin2u: why? | 06:24 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: looks like something called orca is involved with both accessibility features | 06:25 |
| urlin2u | scriptwarlock, a nic like that i am surprised your even asking, just ribbing yiu. | 06:25 |
| urlin2u | you | 06:25 |
| scriptwarlock | urlin2u: heheh | 06:25 |
| urlin2u | orca is what I thought to | 06:25 |
| idarkside | please can someone answer me | 06:25 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: ok so where can i find the orca config file so that i can disable via text editor | 06:25 |
| acerimmer | idarkside: greetings | 06:26 |

| idarkside | how can i install sslv2 on ubuntu please | 06:26 |
| wrektjet | is there a way to end the activity in a terminal without closing it for example I initiated top and want to end it w/o closing the terminal bec its running via a program called guake | 06:26 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: phew darn kids | 06:26 |
| urlin2u | idarkside, sslv2qq shows nothing on google. | 06:26 |
| urlin2u | empty page | 06:26 |
| idarkside | sslv2 | 06:27 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: what version of Ubuntu? | 06:27 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: 10.04 | 06:27 |
| acerimmer | idarkside: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8206546/undefined-symbol-sslv2-method | 06:27 |
| acerimmer | idarkside: The Ubuntu people build OpenSSL without SSLv2 support because the protocol has known security issues. So that's why you can't find SSLv2_method in their library even though you can find it when you compile the library yourself. | 06:28 |
| urlin2u | been droped from ubuntu | 06:28 |
| idarkside | yeah i know | 06:28 |
| idarkside | but i need it for a mcrypto lib in python | 06:29 |
| urlin2u | idarkside, you might try ##linux | 06:29 |

| bazhang | mikeliss, whats the chipset | 06:33 |
| North | While installing the google Chrome, I got the error message that . "Error:Dependency is not satisfiable:libasound2" | 06:33 |
| mikeliss | bazhang: Not sure...how do I check? | 06:33 |
| North | what should I do? | 06:34 |
| bazhang | mikeliss, usb or internal? | 06:34 |
| almoxarife | mikeliss: would you share /var/log/syslog | 06:34 |
| mikeliss | bazhang: usb | 06:34 |
| bazhang | mikeliss, lsusb with the card plugged in should show it | 06:34 |
| mikeliss | almoxarife: easier said than done, the computer has no internet... | 06:35 |
| almoxarife | mikeliss: got you | 06:35 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow sudo rm gnome-mag.desktop -- this one? | 06:36 |
| mikeliss | bazhang: Hrm...doing lsusb freezes when it tries to get the device's info... | 06:36 |
| almoxarife | mikeliss: how about the 'lsusb' does it show the wifi usb? | 06:36 |
| mikeliss | almoxarife, bazhang: it does show the model when I run just lsusb, but not the chipset, so I ran lsusb -vv, and it's now frozen. | 06:37 |
| Jimu_ | scriptwarlock: no, the part 'sudo dpkg -P gnome-orca' and 'sudo dpkg -P gnome-mag' <-- maybe only the second is important | 06:37 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: i can't even launch the safe mode and terminal theres no way i can type that | 06:38 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: but i was on the live cd now and saw that file | 06:38 |
| Jimu_ | if you press Ctrl-Alt-F1? | 06:38 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: yes no terminal | 06:39 |
| almoxarife | mikeliss: try -v -V | 06:39 |
| Jimu_ | i run Ubuntu 11.10 from VirtualBox, and at login I can type Ctrl-Alt-F1 and get console | 06:39 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: good for you but not in my case | 06:39 |
| mikeliss | almoxarife: lsusb (usbutils) 001 | 06:39 |
| Jimu_ | can you use dpkg from a live CD? | 06:40 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: well as i have said i have now seen this two files in /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow thru live cd | 06:40 |
| Jimu_ | seems like it wouldn't work right | 06:40 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: i need to confirm if this is safe to delete the "gnome-mag.desktop" and "orca-screen-reader.desktop" | 06:41 |
| skorket | I've just installed natty (11.04) and I'm having switching focus to another window with the keyboard shortcut 'alt-tab'. I have 'focus on mouse-over' and of course 'alt-tab' to switch between windows. Any suggestions on how to resolve this? | 06:42 |
| Jimu_ | well, you've got a live CD so almost everything is 'safe', but i'd suggest renaming them with an obscure ending rather than deleting them | 06:42 |
| skorket | sorry, I'm having *trouble* switching focus | 06:42 |
| Jimu_ | like 'orca-screen-reader.desktop.old' | 06:42 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: ok let me try that one and be back | 06:43 |
| banseljaj | Hi. I keep getting a java headless exception error whenever i try java apps. what seems to be the problem? | 06:43 |
| hydrox24 | skorket: alt-tab switches to a different program, alt-"~" switches amongst the multiple windows of a single program | 06:43 |
| samurai2 | hi anyone know how to do scheduling running java program in ubuntu? thanks | 06:43 |
| skorket | hydrox24. ok. I would like to switch focus to another program | 06:44 |
| scriptwarlock | Jimu_: be right back | 06:44 |
| Jimu_ | k | 06:44 |
| hydrox24 | skorket: I was simply wondering if you weren't aware of the 'feature' I am not sure I am able to help beyond that. | 06:44 |
| skorket | hydrox24, no, I was not, thank you | 06:44 |
| hydrox24 | skorket: make sure you hold down alt and "tap" the tab key | 06:44 |
| hydrox24 | samurai2: you mean like run a jave app every so often? | 06:45 |
| samurai2 | hydrox24 : yeah like that. :) | 06:45 |
| skorket | hydrox24, ah, I see, it's just really slow. I expect it to be too responsive. If I slow down, it eventually switches. weird. Anyway to speed that up? | 06:45 |
| hydrox24 | skorket: your using unity (the default) yes? | 06:46 |
| skorket | hydrox24, I haven't altered anything so I assume I'm using the default | 06:46 |
| hydrox24 | !cron | samurai2 | 06:46 |
| ubottu | samurai2: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto | 06:46 |
| samurai2 | cron? it's that like a apache zookeeper? | 06:47 |
| hydrox24 | skorket: I seitched to using gnome-shell (gnome3) as I found unity a little too slow/laggy. I wouldn't recommend the process of changing Window Managers to newcomers though. | 06:47 |

| mikeliss | bazhang: almoxarife: I got lsusb -vv to run finally...still don't see the chipset though. | 06:47 |

| skorket | hydrox24, thanks | 06:48 |
| hydrox24 | samurai2: if you can run the java app from the command line then cron is the way to go. | 06:48 |
| samurai2 | ic. thanks :) | 06:48 |

| mikeliss | hydrox24: No luck. | 06:51 |

| hydrox24 | mikeliss: no sure sorry, what model is it? (Make, Model etc.) | 06:51 |
| banseljaj | hydrox24, I apologize. | 06:51 |
| mikeliss | It's a Belkin N600 DB | 06:51 |
| hydrox24 | banseljaj: that's ok :) | 06:52 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: ^^ | 06:52 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: kk, brb | 06:52 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: This is probably a better term to search by: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Belkin_F9L1101v1 | 06:52 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: wait... it's a full-on router... not just a USB wifi card? | 06:52 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: Those steps worked on my laptop. | 06:53 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1774680 mikeliss this? | 06:53 |
| hydrox24 | so.. the problem is solved? | 06:53 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: No, apparently n600 is a rather abused model number at Belkin. That model number is either a router or a USB thing. | 06:53 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: No, it worked on my laptop, but not my desktop. The laptop was more or less a testing ground, since it has Internet. | 06:54 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: is your laptop on the same version of ubuntu? | 06:55 |
| mikeliss | bazhang: Yup. | 06:55 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: Yup. | 06:55 |
| hydrox24 | does it give you any errors when selecting the driver? | 06:55 |
| mikeliss | bazhang: Sorry, that yup was meant for hydrox24 - the link you posted isn't right. I have the USB thing, not the router. | 06:55 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: None I've found in syslog or when I run ndiswrapper -i in the terminal | 06:56 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: it's just silent then doesn't workC? | 06:56 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: it's just silent then doesn't work? | 06:56 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: Seems as if. I just don't see it popping up in my network thing in the upper right corner like it did on my laptop. Otherwise everything seemed to go smoothly. | 06:57 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: OK, so can you see if it is listed under "ifconfig -a" | 06:57 |
| hydrox24 | will be called wlan0/1 or something | 06:58 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: No luck there. I have eth0 and lo, but that's it. | 06:58 |
| hydrox24 | hmmm | 06:58 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: is it by chance that the laptop is 32bit and the desktop 64? | 06:59 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: yeah, actually, that's a good point. | 07:00 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: that's you issue right there. | 07:00 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: sounds like a hell of a good lead, yeah. | 07:00 |
| mikeliss | hydrox24: Any ideas how to make it work? | 07:00 |
| hydrox24 | mikeliss: not right now, but someone mentions using it on 64-bit and having lsusb crash ;) | 07:01 |

| eigar | almoxarife: with pure alsa or jack I do not have the problem. | 07:37 |
| joshwines | UidX: you shouldn't have to include the auto-increment column in the INSERT query | 07:38 |
| eigar | and the problem is with mplayer as well | 07:38 |
| ritz | eigar, if I understand this correctly, this is an issue with pa | 07:38 |

| eigar | ritz: currently a hdmi thisngy. Have tested with a couple of others to. | 07:39 |
| ritz | eigar, high cpu load ? did you try http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_PulseAudio_problems#Playback_problems.2C_crackling_or_skipping ? | 07:39 |

| ritz | eigar, have you tried this http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/CannedResponses ? | 07:43 |
| eigar | it seems like the problem not lays with the HW but how pulseaudio works. The philosophy of mplayer is very different from the one in pulseaudio. mplayer opens a sink with pulseaudio and deliver part by part to pulseaudio. When the file end mplayer stops delivering data (obviously) but pulseaudio keeps looking for data to see if there's any more coming. | 07:43 |
| ritz | eigar, try running pa under debug mode | 07:43 |
| ritz | $ pulseaudio -vvv | 07:43 |

| azured | ok thx | 07:44 |
| bug | please help, I have fixed my /etc/hosts file to make localhost resolve correctly | 07:45 |
| eigar | ritz: yes, i have done so. I have alos hacked in the code of pulseqaudio, recompiled and hacked in mplayer code to log what is happening. The problem is partially described above. Pulseaudio philosopy: 1. Open ana audio stream 2. deliver song after song to this stream. Mplayer: 1. Open an audio stream 2. deliver 1 track. 3. close audio stream 4. open new deliver next. | 07:45 |
| ritz | eigar, interesting. pa does not see the close stream request | 07:46 |
| eigar | ritz: yes, even after close is sent it keeps checking for data. This kreates the lag/pause/silence between tracks. | 07:47 |
| ritz | eigar, in your setup, mplayer->pa->alsa ( with pa plugin ) ? | 07:47 |
| ritz | odd, try a smaller buffer - http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/LatencyControl ? | 07:47 |

| hydrox24 | nc__: That is a rather dull error and is not very verbose, I will check possible problems but it may require significant debugging. | 07:54 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: are you installing it using apt-get? | 07:55 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: Yep | 07:55 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: what command did you use (word for word) to try installing samba? | 07:56 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: sudo apt-get install samba4 - I did try installing it using synaptic first though, then I uninstalled it and tried it via apt-get | 07:57 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: ok, so can you run the command: | 07:57 |
| hydrox24 | "sudo apt-get remove --purge samba" | 07:58 |
| hydrox24 | after doing this, remove the /etc/samba/smb.conf file | 07:58 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: how do i do that in terminal? I need sudo priviledges it seems :o | 07:59 |

| hydrox24 | nc__: sorry, you mean removing the .conf file? | 07:59 |
| iToast | Ubutnu 11.10 has low hardware support and doesn't just work.. | 07:59 |

| iToast | hydrox24, Why is 11.10 so horrible for hardware support? | 08:00 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: "sudo rm /etc/samba/smb.conf" | 08:00 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: thanks, sorry should have told you i'm a noob | 08:00 |
| hydrox24 | iToast: That is not a specific problem, please ask that at ubuntu-offtopic | 08:00 |

| iToast | hydrox24, It doesn't boot. | 08:01 |

| iToast | hydrox24, Thats a horrible design. | 08:07 |
| iToast | When a user is looking for a amd64 iso they don't click on ubuntu for arm. | 08:08 |

| iToast | It runs stable | 08:08 |
| hydrox24 | oh, soz | 08:08 |
| hydrox24 | wrong one | 08:08 |

| pnorman | amd64? ubuntu homepage > download > ubuntu server, select 64 bit version | 08:09 |
| andyn | hey, we need a "lite" version of ubuntu for raspberry pi :P | 08:09 |
| pnorman | actually, by default, the 64 bit version is selected | 08:09 |

| hydrox24 | pnorman: you're right. | 08:10 |
| iToast | pnorman, Thats the confusion :P | 08:10 |
| hydrox24 | iToast: listen to pnorman :) | 08:10 |
| iToast | it states nothing about amd64... | 08:10 |
| pnorman | Why would anything other than 64 bit be selected? | 08:10 |
| Myrtti | iToast: 64-bit *is* amd64 | 08:10 |
| iToast | A default install of ubuntu will accept 4gb of ram :/ | 08:10 |

| hydrox24 | iToast: sorry? | 08:10 |
| andyn | hydrox24: lol :-) | 08:10 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: I just rebooted, when i type samba in the console it says that it's not installed and tells me to use sudo apt-get install samba4 | 08:10 |
| nc__ | ? | 08:10 |
| hydrox24 | andyn: yeh, not really lite enough... | 08:10 |
| pnorman | iToast: You're saying it should say amd64 instead of 64-bit? | 08:11 |
| iToast | pnorman, It should give a hint :p | 08:11 |

| iToast | WINDOWS! | 08:11 |
| Ben64 | not on pi | 08:11 |
| pnorman | I think saying amd64 would confuse people more than 64-bit. most people wouldn't get that intel 64-bit CPUs are also amd64 | 08:11 |
| iToast | Someone will get it to run smoothly. | 08:11 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: Yep, any clues? Should i try installing samba4? | 08:12 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: I am assuming you just want to share files on a windows network, yes? | 08:12 |
| nc__ | hydrox24: actually just between lubuntu and os x lion :o | 08:12 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: I share files over a network with samba and I have never used the actual "samba" command | 08:13 |
| iToast | Ben64, ubuntu will run on pi. | 08:13 |

| andyn | well, if you want a unity-like desktop you could run wmaker on it. | 08:14 |
| iToast | Ben64, It will run. | 08:14 |
| iToast | You just gotta optimize it. | 08:14 |

| iToast | Vista to run in 54 mb of ram | 08:14 |
| coolstar-ipod | iToast: Unity is too heavy | 08:14 |
| hydrox24 | nc__: can you try using the inbuilt sharing? unless you need careful control over permissions etc, just right click the folder you want to share, go to the sharing tab and go from there | 08:14 |
| iToast | coolstar-ipod, who cares? cut it. | 08:14 |
| coolstar-ipod | It lags on my system with dual core CPU and 3GB RAm | 08:15 |
| iToast | we don't need unity... | 08:15 |
| andyn | Ben64, iToast: since it has unified hardware it should not be too hard to trim a very compact kernel and libraries for it. | 08:15 |
| Ben64 | i'd rather use something designed better for the rpi | 08:15 |

| Smelly | callaghan, How about /etc/lsb-release | 08:36 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Thats one way to get help. | 08:36 |
| callaghan | Smelly: same here, only Ubuntu | 08:36 |
| rick__ | so will anyone tell me how to use cmd line | 08:38 |
| bob___ | type commands | 08:38 |
| ServerSage | I love people that brag about their intelligence but lack simple skills like sentence structure. :) | 08:38 |
| rick__ | or does everyone feel i should be deprived | 08:38 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Do you know which *buntu and which GUI you are running? | 08:38 |
| rick__ | no | 08:38 |
| rick__ | 11.0 | 08:38 |
| callaghan | rick__: http://www.amazon.com/Linux-Command-Shell-Scripting-Bible/dp/047025128X | 08:39 |
| Smelly | callaghan, maybe try "cd /etc; grep -R Lubuntu" to see if there's a file which has the distro name | 08:39 |
| callaghan | rick__: I bought this and it contains everything I ever needed :) | 08:39 |
| rick__ | no money pal | 08:39 |
| rick__ | 0 dollar budget | 08:40 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Drop the attitude. Were here to help. You need to remember that most of us are actually sitting at jobs right now WHILE trying to help you. | 08:40 |
| rick__ | my company has been brought to its knees and i got trown out on the street | 08:40 |
| callaghan | rick__: then there's this: http://www.freeos.com/guides/lsst/ | 08:40 |
| T_H_X | same | 08:41 |
| callaghan | rick__: it's not as complete, but a good start nonetheless | 08:41 |
| rick__ | but it will rise up soon | 08:41 |
| dotachin | is there any reason to split up large (20GB+) gzip files in pieces? | 08:41 |
| callaghan | Smelly: whoa, that's taking a long time ^^ | 08:41 |
| rick__ | i need some good people | 08:41 |
| ServerSage | dotachin: Some filesystems only support 2gb files. | 08:41 |
| rick__ | ive got gret ones but thier is so much to do | 08:41 |
| Smelly | callaghan, It'll finish :) Maybe add " | less" at the end to be able to scroll trhough the output | 08:42 |
| ServerSage | dotachin: Plus, moving a single 20gb file is harder than moving 20 1gb files. | 08:42 |
| dotachin | ServerSage, but any reasons in terms of file integrity? | 08:42 |
| rick__ | can you tell me how to use cmd line | 08:42 |
| ServerSage | dotachin: Nope. | 08:42 |
| rick__ | where is it located | 08:42 |
| dotachin | ServerSage, ok, thnx. | 08:42 |
| Smelly | callaghan, and make sure you are in /etc :) | 08:42 |

| tellers | Hello. | 08:45 |
| LunatyK | Hi | 08:45 |
| tellers | We are looking for genitally mutilated males. Contact me in private to participate in an investigate report. Nationwide publicity a significant possibility. | 08:46 |
| ServerSage | Ummm, tellers probably needs to be made to disappear. | 08:46 |
| alumno | un abrazo | 08:46 |
| callaghan | Smelly: I used "cd /etc; grep -R Lubuntu | tee ~/output" so it should to the job... no, nothing's in there ^^ | 08:46 |
| callaghan | Smelly: ah well, I guess the user has to select what he is running then. Thank you for your time :) | 08:47 |
| Smelly | callaghan, Are you sure you're on Lubuntu? :) It should read | 08:47 |
| Smelly | callaghan, welcome. | 08:47 |
| tellers | Genitally mutilated is another expression for foreskin-amputated. | 08:47 |
| tellers | It means circumcised. | 08:48 |
| Smelly | callaghan, Skip the "It should read" | 08:48 |
| callaghan | Smelly: yeah, I'm sure, I also have a xubuntu machine where the command is still running | 08:48 |
| === ritz is now known as ritz|afk | ||
| Smelly | callaghan, weird that it doesn't show up in issue at least... Well, good luck | 08:49 |
| LunatyK | Smelly is it smart to load Xubuntu at the same time as Ubuntu | 08:50 |
| callaghan | Smelly: it shows up in /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/desktop.conf I can check if this path exists. | 08:50 |
| krised | Hi. I have a script which sets up various things. But each command line requires sudo (such as making changes to .profile) how do i tell a batchscript that all commands in the script must run as such ? so i dont have to execute one line at a time | 08:51 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, Is that a rethorical uestion? | 08:51 |
| Skew-_^ | krised, run it as sudo? | 08:51 |
| LunatyK | no | 08:51 |
| JadedJacob | evening ubuntu | 08:51 |
| Skew-_^ | krised, run the script as sudo | 08:51 |
| rick__ | ok how do accsess ubuntu cmd line | 08:51 |
| LunatyK | Cause i added packages for Xfce and Xubuntu | 08:51 |
| rick__ | please | 08:52 |
| krised | Skew -_^if i run it as sudo it wont run every command as sudo. just the first line | 08:52 |
| Skew-_^ | krised, dont use sudo in script? | 08:52 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, I don;t know what you mean by "load". You mean have installed side by side as in "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" and "apt-get install xubuntu-desktop"? | 08:52 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Did you not read what the good bot told you earlier? | 08:52 |
| krised | Skew-_^ if i start every line with sudo it will ask for my password between each line | 08:52 |

| LunatyK | I was trying to get Slackware Packages | 08:53 |
| LunatyK | x.x | 08:53 |
| JadedJacob | I'm after some software for ubuntu that allows to you click a button on a application make it resize 50% of the width of my LCD screen. | 08:53 |

| ServerSage | rick__: You've been given help. Other than driving to your house and opening it for you what more would you like? | 08:54 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, So you installed Ubuntu from CD or so and then you installed Xubuntu (packages) through synaptics? I'm not sure if that's advisable. It might be possible, but I'd personaly rather go with either one or the other. | 08:55 |
| rick__ | why is it no one i talkto want to help you all act like im gonna kill you when i get my mind ad powerback | 08:55 |
| LunatyK | Well | 08:55 |
| LunatyK | It lets me choose | 08:55 |
| rick__ | tell me where to clik please | 08:55 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Read the help! It tells you EXACTLY WHAT TO CLICK. | 08:55 |
| LunatyK | If i want Gnome or Xubuntu | 08:55 |
| rick__ | it says applications | 08:55 |
| rick__ | thier is nothing under apps | 08:55 |
| garaman | rick__: press the "Windows" key and type "terminal" then hit Enter | 08:56 |
| ServerSage | rick__: click the Ubuntu logo and start typing terminal. | 08:56 |
| rick__ | windows key?? | 08:56 |
| garaman | rick__: between Ctrl and Alt | 08:57 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, What lets you choose? | 08:57 |
| garaman | rick__: also works to press Alt+F2, type "gnome-terminal", then hit Enter | 08:57 |
| rick__ | ok im in thank you | 08:57 |
| rick__ | now how do i run file | 08:57 |
| JadedJacob | i think i'll just post on the ubuntuforums instead. | 08:58 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Do you know where you downloaded the firefox file? | 08:58 |
| LunatyK | The Login Screen shows Session and it lets me run either Ubuntu or XUbuntu | 08:58 |
| rick__ | from firefox aurora website | 08:58 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Yes, but where did you save it to? | 08:58 |
| rick__ | its located in downloads section of firefox i cant make anysense of these ubuntu directories | 08:59 |
| garaman | rick__: in terminal type "cd Downloads", then "ls" | 08:59 |
| garaman | rick__: what filenames do you see? | 09:00 |
| rick__ | no such file or directory | 09:00 |
| garaman | rick__: type "pwd", what do you see? | 09:01 |
| LunatyK | How do you go root? | 09:01 |
| rick__ | pwd | 09:01 |
| goddard | the -15 kernel isn't working | 09:01 |
| goddard | how can i debug? | 09:01 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, Ah ok. So they're both installed already. Well if it work, it works. (For the time being) | 09:01 |
| garaman | rick__: in terminal, type "pwd" | 09:01 |
| LunatyK | Yes Smelly and it hasnt been messing up tho | 09:01 |
| madigan | sudo /load .xchat2/budus.so | 09:01 |
| Smelly | LunatyK, with "sudo <command>" you execute the command as root | 09:02 |
| rick__ | fff | 09:02 |
| rick__ | home rick | 09:02 |
| rick__ | home rick is what i see | 09:03 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Try running "ls", do you see a Downloads listed? | 09:03 |
| garaman | rick__: in terminal, type "ls -1F". you should see list of dirs, one of which should be named "Downloads" | 09:03 |
| madigan | XD i can't load the plug XDDC! i try sudo beacuse i'm desperate | 09:03 |
| madigan | XD | 09:03 |
| rick__ | it says deskto videos doc ex desktop pic tempp downloads music public | 09:04 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Then type "cd downloads" | 09:04 |
| rick__ | no such file or directory | 09:04 |
| norbert79 | rick__: Just one thing to mention: Linux is Case-sensitive... If you See Downloads, it's not the same, like 'downloads' | 09:05 |
| ServerSage | rick__: You have to match the case. So if it's Downloads you need to do "cd Downloads" | 09:05 |
| === SoulShadow is now known as Shadows`birthday | ||
| garaman | rick__: indeed, try "cd Downloads" again, exactly as written | 09:05 |
| garaman | rick__: with capital "D" | 09:05 |
| [deXter] | unless of course, you turn off case sensitivity in bash, like I do ;) | 09:05 |
| rick__ | it says downloads $ | 09:06 |
| norbert79 | [deXter]: Which could just screw up your filesystem, just saying ;-) | 09:06 |
| garaman | [deXter]: I "set completion-ignore-case on", which is handy while less dangerous | 09:06 |
| [deXter] | garaman, yeah, that's what I use actually | 09:06 |
| LunatyK | Smelly could i script Ubuntu to look like SlackWare? | 09:07 |
| norbert79 | rick__: I would assume ls -lF would be the next step... | 09:07 |
| norbert79 | rick__: so you can see what's listed there | 09:08 |
| aLeSD| | hi all | 09:08 |
| rick__ | yep no fire fox thou | 09:08 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: look like slackware? you are aware that slackware uses vanilla packages? | 09:08 |
| aLeSD| | is it normal that /sbin in not in my path ? | 09:08 |
| LunatyK | I am | 09:09 |
| aLeSD| | $PATH | 09:09 |
| LunatyK | Thats what im used to auronandace | 09:09 |
| rick__ | lf says cmd not found | 09:09 |
| TheYsNoi | hi aLeSD | 09:09 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: /sbin is in PATH on default ubuntu | 09:09 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Try running "ls -l" | 09:09 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: then that means slackware doesn't have a look of it's own, what you want is the default look of the packages | 09:09 |
| LunatyK | Yes that | 09:10 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot: I just switched from kubuntu 2 ubuntu | 09:10 |
| rick__ | type ls -l | 09:10 |
| rick__ | ???? | 09:10 |
| ServerSage | rick__: Yes, in the terminal type in "ls -l" without the quotes. | 09:10 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games | 09:10 |
| aLeSD| | I simply run sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop | 09:10 |
| LunatyK | Could i do that auronandace | 09:11 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: to get the | 09:11 |
| rick__ | not there | 09:11 |
| === christiantarry is now known as earlybirdd | ||
| auronandace | LunatyK: no idea | 09:11 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: to get the "real" ubuntu its sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 09:11 |
| LunatyK | Hmm | 09:11 |
| ServerSage | rick__: You sure you downloaded it? :) | 09:11 |
| rick__ | yup | 09:11 |
| LunatyK | Ima try something | 09:11 |
| aLeSD| | ah | 09:11 |
| LunatyK | after Synaptic gets done | 09:11 |
| norbert79 | rick__: You would like to check your queries/personal messages... | 09:11 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: what has ubuntu changed that you don't like the look of? | 09:11 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot, ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version. | 09:11 |
| rick__ | how | 09:11 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: then you have everything you need | 09:12 |
| almoxarife | rick__: wanna try this with the gui folder viewer god gave ubuntu? | 09:12 |
| LunatyK | Actually auronandace i am used to Slackware | 09:12 |
| norbert79 | rick__: Like clicking the window, I think top, since you have at least 1 personal message in your IRC client | 09:12 |
| LunatyK | And seeing something that doesnt look like it | 09:12 |
| LunatyK | Seems wrong | 09:12 |
| norbert79 | rick__: I think right to the channel window-tab | 09:12 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: you haven't answered my question, whats different that you don't like? | 09:12 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot, my system want't start gdm ... it tries with kdm all the time .. The prob is that I removed kdm | 09:13 |
| LunatyK | The whole thing | 09:13 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: ubuntu is not using gdm | 09:13 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: such as? | 09:13 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: its using lightdm | 09:13 |
| LunatyK | the themes the wallpapes the menu | 09:13 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: depending on your version | 09:13 |
| rick__ | ok | 09:14 |
| auronandace | LunatyK: so you don't like unity? is that it? more of a kde fan? | 09:14 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: what version are you using? | 09:14 |
| Monkeypaws | Hello. I have a webserver running ubuntu/apache and an IP camera. I'd like to have 1 connection between the ubuntu server and the IP camera. Then, however many users connect to the ubuntu/apache server to view the stream. I want to avoid anyone connecting directly to the IP camera in order to view the stream. Is this do-able? thanks | 09:14 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot, 13.04 | 09:14 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: not possible | 09:14 |
| aLeSD| | Who tells ? Hainstein ? | 09:14 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: there is no 13.04 | 09:14 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: output of "cat /etc/issue" | 09:14 |
| aLeSD| | 11.10 | 09:15 |
| aLeSD| | I configured lightdm | 09:15 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: then its lightdm instead of gdm | 09:15 |
| auronandace | !kubuntu | LunatyK | 09:15 |
| ubottu | LunatyK: kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE Software Compilation instead of !Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde | 09:15 |
| aLeSD| | now the problem is the $PATH | 09:16 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot, is it configured in .bashrc ? | 09:16 |
| iceroot | aLeSD|: /etc/bash_completion | 09:19 |
| * dfcnvt hit the sack, "G'night" | 09:19 | |
| almoxarife | Monkeypaws: how does apache talk to the camera? network? usb? | 09:19 |
| Monkeypaws | almoxarife - the video stream is available over the network, at http://192.168.1.75/mjpeg.cgi | 09:21 |
| aLeSD| | iceroot, thanks | 09:21 |
| LunatyK | installing Kubuntu | 09:25 |
| varikonniemi | hmm, i have been zipping 60 gigs folder to a .zip archive with ubuntus compress option. I left it overnight and it is only halfway therE?! | 09:25 |
| jatt | why do you want to zip 60 gigs! rotfl | 09:26 |
| varikonniemi | so i can archive it handy in one file | 09:26 |
| JadedJacob | Varazir: What compression setting did you use? What is your CPU? How much RAM do you have? | 09:26 |
| LunatyK | auronandace is that smart | 09:27 |
| jatt | better those 60 gigs are text files | 09:27 |
| varikonniemi | dunno about compression, it does not let me choose | 09:27 |
| jatt | if not | 09:27 |
| varikonniemi | c2d 3.1ghz, 4ggs ram | 09:27 |
| jatt | you are wasting your time | 09:27 |
| varikonniemi | cpu usage 10% | 09:27 |
| JadedJacob | Yeah like what jatt: Unless they are text files or BMP's(haha) you're wasting your time | 09:28 |
| === LunatyK is now known as Eternal | ||
| JadedJacob | *like what jatt said i mean | 09:28 |
| varikonniemi | the point is not to compress them but to just have one file to archive | 09:28 |
| === Eternal is now known as LunatyK | ||
| jatt | then don't compress them | 09:28 |
| jatt | archive them | 09:28 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: tar | 09:28 |
| jatt | with tar for example | 09:28 |
| varikonniemi | but there is clearly something wrong here | 09:28 |
| === LunatyK is now known as DJ_Eternal | ||
| varikonniemi | i read tar is really bad for this, since it has no index | 09:28 |
| DJ_Eternal | There | 09:28 |
| jatt | yeah PEBKAC | 09:28 |
| haylo | i think zipping is good but something that big takes to long to zip varikonniemi | 09:29 |
| DJ_Eternal | >.< | 09:29 |
| JadedJacob | When you say there is something wrong...Do you mean you think your harddrive is on the way out? | 09:29 |
| haylo | plus unless the data has a compressible pattern it doesnt get that much smaller | 09:29 |
| varikonniemi | yeah but what is it doing this all time when cpu usage is at 5-10% for the process | 09:29 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: what is the value of %wa | 09:30 |
| varikonniemi | memory usage 50M | 09:30 |
| DJ_Eternal | Is it smart to install Kubuntu with Ubuntu and Xubuntu | 09:30 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: on top | 09:30 |
| varikonniemi | iceroot, ? | 09:30 |
| haylo | will take ten percent cpu to do an operationg like this | 09:30 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: you are talking about cpu usage, what is "top" showing for the value %wa | 09:30 |
| varikonniemi | where can i find %wa | 09:30 |
| rick__ | ok im back | 09:31 |
| jatt | you should do the experiment how it takes to uncompress the 60GB. and then compress them again | 09:31 |
| rick__ | hello | 09:31 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: open a terminal and type in "top" | 09:31 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: at the top of that screen there is %wa | 09:32 |
| rick__ | you there | 09:32 |
| varikonniemi | 40-60% | 09:32 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: that is the reason why it is working so long | 09:32 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: %wa = waiting time of the cou for your hdd | 09:33 |
| auronandace | DJ_Eternal: i don't like unity either (xfce is my choice) | 09:33 |
| varikonniemi | iceroot, ok :) | 09:33 |
| iceroot | varikonniemi: so your cpu is waiting 40-60% of the time because your hdd is not delivering the data fast enough | 09:33 |
| DJ_Eternal | xfce is good | 09:33 |
| DJ_Eternal | but i want slackware back | 09:33 |
| === debdj is now known as d00m | ||

| iceroot | DJ_Eternal: #slackware | 09:33 |
| DJ_Eternal | but my disk drive isnt working | 09:33 |
| quiescens | i was going to say | 09:33 |
| quiescens | 40-60% is more likely because of drive failure | 09:34 |
| DJ_Eternal | iceroot i know alot about it | 09:34 |
| quiescens | than actual io saturation | 09:34 |
| DJ_Eternal | c.c | 09:34 |
| iceroot | quiescens: no | 09:34 |
| iceroot | quiescens: that is a normal value and has nothing to do with drive failure | 09:34 |
| varikonniemi | hmm, i have process python as zombie. Is that bad | 09:34 |
| goddard | xfce yo dawg dat is oogleee | 09:34 |

| bc81 | hello. i'm trying to get a daap server up and running on maverick, mt-daapd is not working, is there a better more up-to-date method? | 09:35 |

| auronandace | DJ_Eternal: if you want slackware then why did you install xubuntu? | 09:43 |
| DJ_Eternal | Cause i couldn't get my Slackware to update to 13.37 | 09:43 |
| varikonniemi | i restarted my computer and python process is still zombie. Is this normal? | 09:44 |
| aBound | Slackware is not an easy to use distribution. | 09:44 |
| iceroot | DJ_Eternal: what is your question? to be honest we dont care about slackware | 09:44 |
| goddard | DJ_Eternal: so you just install lots of OS's on your computer for fun? | 09:44 |
| reisio | varikonniemi: sure it's the same #? | 09:44 |
| auronandace | DJ_Eternal: so you couldn't reinstall slackware instead of upgrade? | 09:45 |

| rick__ | can we get back to bussiness | 09:49 |
| aBound | DJ_Eternal, Doesn't seem like Slackware requires 6 CDs there's a package with the DVD for everything and 6 ISOs which means you don't need all of them. | 09:50 |
| tomek_ | who knows how to move window x - [] from left to right ? | 09:50 |
| aBound | Some of the ISOs are source packages. | 09:50 |

| aBound | iceroot, Indeed. | 09:50 |

| _Ethan_ | hi | 09:59 |
| reisio | hi | 09:59 |
| bc81 | hi | 09:59 |
| _Ethan_ | when manually creating the partitions, /home should be the biggest one in size? | 09:59 |
| pfifo | hi | 09:59 |
| cristian_c | I'm using Oneiric Ocelot 11.10, I purchased an asus WL-330gE. The device shields the connection to the router, unfortunately I have to first establish a direct connection to the router, and then the computer automatically snaps to a repeater. But if the PC tries to connect to the router via the repeater, it fails | 09:59 |
| Tiven_ | _Ethan_ : no need for that | 10:00 |
| Tiven_ | it's all about what you need | 10:00 |
| reisio | _Ethan_: but yes, in general | 10:00 |
| bc81 | _Ethan_: generally, yes. | 10:00 |
| Tiven_ | yea | 10:00 |
| Tiven_ | because you usually use the most space for saving in there | 10:00 |
| cristian_c | the network manager tries to connect several times, but it fails to connect. So I updated the firmware to the latest version, from version 2.0.1.9 to 2.0.2.0, but unfortunately the problem persists | 10:01 |
| reisio | if you put everything on one partition, you don't have to consider this | 10:01 |
| cristian_c | What can I do to solve the problem? | 10:01 |
| _Ethan_ | so /home is supposed to be the "folder" where i put data | 10:01 |
| glosoli | bob___: Thanks for answer :) Might be what I need | 10:01 |
| pfifo | cristian_c, you might want to ask in ##hardware this is ubuntu support | 10:01 |
| _Ethan_ | the thing is , arent they just folders but partitions? | 10:02 |
| _Ethan_ | i can understand to have a swap partition | 10:02 |
| auronandace | _Ethan_: i use a seperate storage partition for my files | 10:02 |
| reisio | _Ethan_: home is for non-OS data | 10:02 |
| pfifo | _Ethan_, you dont have to make /home a partition at all | 10:02 |
| reisio | indeed | 10:03 |
| _Ethan_ | and in fact i have one partition for data in my windows xp, because i wanted it | 10:03 |
| Tiven_ | _Ethan_ : basically home is all that you save. i used to use Home on my headless server to save all services (webservers, gameservers, etc) | 10:03 |
| _Ethan_ | pfifo but is it the default mode ubuntu uses when installing isnt it ? | 10:03 |
| cristian_c | pfifo, is this not a problem that affects the operating system? | 10:03 |
| llutz_ | _Ethan_: then just dont put /home on extra partition, mount your data-filesystem later to i.e. /home/you/data | 10:04 |
| pfifo | _Ethan_, because it makes reinstalling easier, you wont lose all your settings if you have a seperate /home | 10:04 |
| reisio | you shouldn't _have_ to reinstall, though, if course | 10:04 |
| _Ethan_ | ok | 10:04 |
| Tiven_ | personally i prefer knowing that if anything at all happens, i know that im safe just by getting this one partition | 10:05 |
| _Ethan_ | thanks a lot for your help | 10:05 |
| _Ethan_ | cross fingers for me | 10:05 |
| _Ethan_ | :P | 10:05 |
| Tiven_ | good luck bro | 10:05 |
| _Ethan_ | because i actually have two primary partitions, windows xp and data | 10:05 |
| reisio | to be safe you must backup | 10:05 |
| llutz_ | Tiven_: that's what backups are for | 10:05 |
| reisio | regardless of partition scheme | 10:06 |
| _Ethan_ | next i´ll do ext 4 / as primary | 10:06 |
| Tiven_ | i always backup, i always use partitions too :P | 10:06 |
| _Ethan_ | swap and /home | 10:06 |
| _Ethan_ | (/home as logical) | 10:06 |
| llutz_ | _Ethan_: logical/primary makes no difference | 10:06 |
| UidX | is there any program which analyzes a jar file and draws an entire class map? | 10:07 |
| auronandace | _Ethan_: i keep all my linux partitions as logical (allows primaries to be used for other OS's) | 10:07 |
| reisio | #java? | 10:07 |
| UidX | oh is there #java? | 10:07 |
| Tiven_ | yea | 10:07 |
| UidX | thanks im new to this server so i'm not really used to it | 10:07 |
| dns53 | UidX there are, but ask somewhere else, it has been a while since i did java programming | 10:07 |
| reisio | I don't multi-boot, seems a waste of time | 10:07 |
| _Ethan_ | llutz yes, but i´ll have 3 primary partitions so i´d prefer to kept the one left for a future possibility | 10:07 |
| _Ethan_ | auronandace exactly | 10:08 |
| reisio | UidX: /msg alis list *foo* | 10:08 |
| llutz_ | _Ethan_: just put all non-win stuff on logical | 10:08 |
| reisio | FFR | 10:08 |
| _Ethan_ | "/" needs to be primary isnt it ? | 10:08 |
| Tiven_ | haha | 10:08 |
| llutz_ | _Ethan_: no | 10:08 |
| pfifo | auronandace, how many OS's do you need | 10:08 |
| _Ethan_ | ups | 10:08 |
| auronandace | pfifo: not a question of need | 10:08 |
| llutz_ | _Ethan_: logical/primary makes no difference (for most non-windows OS) | 10:08 |
| _Ethan_ | thought the OS partition needs to be primary | 10:09 |
| auronandace | pfifo: i like to keep my options open, and its fun to try something new | 10:09 |
| UidX | thanks | 10:09 |
| === max is now known as Guest88489 | ||
| reisio | not that a desktop install needs more than for partitions | 10:09 |
| auronandace | _Ethan_: no, linux and haiku can reside entirely in logical partitions | 10:09 |
| reisio | or even two | 10:09 |
| pfifo | reisio, I require 6 | 10:09 |
| _Ethan_ | auronandace then you meant that for linux you always use logicals to reserve primary partitions for windows for example ? | 10:09 |
| reisio | pfifo: you specialize areas with file systems? | 10:10 |

| norbert79 | grymek: use unetbootin for such, or use the Ubuntu's main website for the pendrive-installer-creator | 10:11 |
| auronandace | _Ethan_: i also keep my storage partition as a logical too | 10:11 |
| cristian_c | an another question: | 10:11 |
| _Ethan_ | just a last question, would you recommend defragmentation ? | 10:11 |
| _Ethan_ | prior all this process? | 10:11 |
| norbert79 | _Ethan_: There are no defragmentation tools for Linux, since EXT3-4 doesn't need such... It's done automatically | 10:12 |
| _Ethan_ | of my data and windows xp partition | 10:12 |
| cristian_c | I'm using lubuntu 11.10 | 10:12 |

| dns53 | gokul so your disk might be on the way out, is this a hard disk in an enclosure or a usb drive? | 10:38 |
| ikonia | aLeSD|: you should be able to span an image across both as one virtual monitor, but not use two different ones | 10:38 |

| red | can i do sites,sites_old | 10:45 |
| red | or similar for the exclude? | 10:45 |
| aLeSD| | norbert79, ok ... but is it possible to expand a single image in the 2 monitor. Use the 2 monitor as a single one. | 10:45 |

| gokul | auronandace, they needed the company logo | 10:46 |
| aLeSD| | norbert79, however thanks | 10:46 |
| bc81 | red: you could also match from a file: --exclude-from=FILE | 10:47 |
| auronandace | gokul: if you can find out who made the usb drives then you can avoid them (sounds like some outsourced cheap manufacturer) | 10:47 |
| red | wildcard worked, however i noticed 1 more folder i need to exclude, (tmp) | 10:48 |
| gokul | yeah | 10:48 |
| red | bc81: this is a one time thingy so i dont think i really wanna build some file for it | 10:48 |
| red | but if its the only way, then i guess i have to | 10:48 |
| quiescens | red: you should really be able to do --exclude more than once | 10:48 |
| red | kk, ill test again | 10:48 |
| norbert79 | RawProduce: I think you might been fooled, since if you check the page you quoted, it shows, that it's not related to Canonical. (dyndns.info..?). I would suggest for checking kivio you should use: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 10:49 |

| ubuntuaddicted | BenSprz, WIFI drivers have been a sore spot in ubuntu for a long time. They add drivers to the linux kernel when they feel they are working BUT sometimes bugs get introduced which then make that driver which is built into the kernel not work. Sometimes you have to blacklist a module from loading and use a different driver (module) | 11:43 |
| ubuntuaddicted | OrderPicker, try to use sudo aptitude search apach2 | 11:44 |

| michaela | and if its not than we should make a big ruckus to make it possible | 11:59 |
| norbert79 | michaela: I think you are referring to alternative downloads. There is a Ubuntu DVD version, you might want to take a look at this: http://swtsrv.informatik.uni-mannheim.de/pub/linux/distributions/ubuntu-dvd-release/ | 11:59 |
| BenSprz | ubuntuaddict: i tried installing the bcmwl package from the live cd /poos/restricted/b/bcmwl but it said dkms dependency bad or somthing like that | 12:00 |

| michaela | thats mot much of an explanation theadmin | 12:02 |

| michaela | no when i install ubuntu it requires me to be online | 12:03 |
| theadmin | michaela: It doesn't, it suggests that for best installation experience, but you can proceed even if there's no connection present. | 12:04 |
| Tom22 | Hello. My sound doesnt work. Tried 2 sets of speakers, soundcard detected, but unable to regulate volume in alsamixer. Have read troubleshoot guide, no help. | 12:04 |

| norbert79 | Tom22: That's not a volume | 12:14 |
| Tom22 | norbert76 so why isn't alsamixer showing my volume levels? | 12:15 |
| norbert79 | Tom22: Might be because of incomplete support or other issues, but what I see is, that you only have three options listed. Press F5 and check all options | 12:15 |
| norbert79 | if those are all, then you have not a full support of your soundcard, or there is another issue present | 12:16 |
| bullgard4 | Tom22: If you are unable to raise the volume from 00 then it is a bug, I believe. Try again after restarting the computer. If this still happens, I'd google if someone having your computer type else experienced the same mis-behaviour.. Or file a bug report in Launchpad. | 12:16 |
| norbert79 | bullgard4: Sorry, but this is just a very generic, and wrong approach. it's not a bug, he only can just access limited features supported by the soundcard. | 12:17 |
| Tom22 | bullgard4 & norbert79 thank you for your help. I'm going to get something to eat, will restart when I get back., F5 brought up some more options, but it doesn't seem like I'm able to raise any of the levels. | 12:17 |
| norbert79 | Tom22: You might want to check F6, since I don't know if you have more, than 1 soundcard in your system | 12:18 |
| norbert79 | Tom22: The current is an ESS ES1978 | 12:18 |
| bullgard4 | norbert79: "incomplete support" is a bug. | 12:19 |
| norbert79 | bullgard4: Again, not true. If the kernel lacks a support of a specific hardware, it's not related to the Ubuntu distribution itself | 12:19 |
| norbert79 | bullgard4: But as we have limited information it's hard to tell at this stage | 12:20 |
| norbert79 | bullgard4: So I would avoid categorising the current situation as 'bug' | 12:20 |

| crizzy | BenSprz: and if you're trying to 'convert' to linux, i'd recommend not to :) install dualboot, investigate linux, find out how to do things in linux, which ways to do things work best, etc. but don't try to forcefully 'convert' | 12:39 |
| reisio | dunno, I've had more success with the totally dive in approach | 12:39 |
| eQuiNoX__ | hmm but its mostly stuff about ACL, access rules, virtual hosts, nodes, stats etc in the admin panel, theadmin | 12:39 |
| Lachezar | Hello people. What's an alternative to Ubuntu, that does not have Unity, Zeitgeist and is Keyborad-friendly? | 12:39 |
| theadmin | eQuiNoX__: Hm, well, I dunno, sorry. | 12:39 |
| eQuiNoX__ | lemme just take a quick look at the logs | 12:40 |
| crizzy | BenSprz: usually this only leads to eventually hitting some thing that works differently than what you're used to in windows / what you don't get working / and then you just get frurstrated | 12:40 |
| eQuiNoX__ | theadmin: np np, thanks for your help! | 12:40 |
| reisio | Lachezar: Ubuntu | 12:40 |
| theadmin | Lachezar: Err... We only support Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Lubuntu here, we don't really discuss "alternatives" | 12:40 |
| reisio | Lachezar: you can forego Unity if you choose | 12:40 |
| Lachezar | Well... I was thiunking of Lubuntu/Xubuntu. | 12:40 |
| theadmin | Lachezar: Xubuntu is similar to Gnome2. | 12:41 |
| theadmin | Lachezar: Well, XFCE is. | 12:41 |
| Lachezar | But I am having tremendous problems with configuration. | 12:41 |
| theadmin | LXDE feels something like Windows 95 on the other hand | 12:41 |
| crizzy | unity is way more keyboard friendly than gnome2 ever was, though | 12:41 |
| Lachezar | Can't configure «Windows» button to open the start menu. (for instance). | 12:41 |
| Lachezar | crizzy: Bulls*it. | 12:41 |
| theadmin | Lachezar: In XFCE? Just bind the Super key to xfce4-menu-popup | 12:41 |
| theadmin | Lachezar: In LXDE, I dunno. | 12:41 |

| holms | 13:47 < holms> hi people. ubuntu lts in here. please help me to migrate on python 2.7. python --version shows 2.7.2 , how to force modwsgi to use newest version | 12:49 |
| holms | norbert79: the one which is in production server - is not | 12:49 |
| holms | and i added some repo to src.list | 12:49 |
| holms | now installed linked, works | 12:49 |
| holms | but how to force mod_Wsgi to use it | 12:49 |
| holms | reinstalled mod_wsgi , didn't help | 12:50 |
| norbert79 | holms: Is mod_Wsgi part of...? | 12:50 |
| norbert79 | holms: Is this a part of the Ubuntu system? | 12:50 |
| holms | well it's apart of apt-get (crappy packed) repo | 12:50 |
| holms | which is done everything in another way how author created | 12:50 |
| Lachezar | crizzy: The fact that I can not reconfigure keyboard shortcuts multiplies «Unity Keyboard Friendliness Coefficient» with ZERO. | 12:50 |
| holms | so you ubuntu responsible for this | 12:51 |
| dr_willis | how vague | 12:51 |
| Lachezar | I am still unable to assing Win+T to terminal. In my language Win+T is bound to Кошче, which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever :-/ | 12:51 |
| norbert79 | holms: There is no 'we ubuntu'... If you want to get help, well first a detailed infor on the package and the ways you did would be helpful, and second, the dpkg/apt-cache can also tell you the author of the package too | 12:51 |
| dr_willis | the update-alternatived system defines what versions are the defaults i belive | 12:51 |
| dr_willis | there nay be some guides on askubuntu.com on usung different versions of python | 12:52 |
| Lachezar | mod_wsgi seems to require (re)compilation against the appropriate runtime version. | 12:53 |
| norbert79 | holms: Anyway, to make things clear, you are talking about holms: libapache2-mod-wsgi and that package is depending on libpython2.6 (>= 2.6), python (>= 2.6), python (<< 2.7) | 12:53 |
| holms | yea i saw that =/ | 12:53 |
| holms | so it's the only way? | 12:53 |
| holms | then I need probably to install in apache mods-enable by my self too | 12:53 |
| holms | ehrr | 12:53 |
| norbert79 | holms: Since python 2.6* is supported for Lucid, I am still riddled how you managed getting 2.7.2 | 12:54 |
| holms | poython 2.6 - IS DEAD | 12:54 |
| Lachezar | holms: Well... I can see a few different python*wsgi packages, that refer to different python versions. | 12:54 |
| norbert79 | holms: So I would assume you used a PPA for getting a later python, but you tried to use the internal module, which only supports 2.6 | 12:54 |
| holms | norbert79: so i've already installed python 2.7 | 12:54 |
| holms | root@li270-125:/# python --version | 12:55 |
| holms | Python 2.7.2 | 12:55 |
| holms | done | 12:55 |
| norbert79 | holms: Sure, now you only need to get the module compiled for 2.7.2 too | 12:55 |
| holms | but wsgi doesn't see it | 12:55 |
| norbert79 | since Lucid supports for wsgi only python 2.6* | 12:55 |
| holms | http://pastebin.com/6hm0q4t8 | 12:56 |
| holms | norbert79: now that's lol | 12:56 |
| holms | 2.6 is out of date | 12:56 |
| norbert79 | holms: Not really | 12:56 |
| holms | even datetime functions works differently | 12:56 |
| norbert79 | holms: Lucid came with 2.6. If you wish having a more recent version you need to go to Python for providing the deb packages for you using Lucid, or you need to compile the module on your own | 12:56 |

| norbert79 | holms: I would suggest reading apt-cache show libapache2-mod-wsgi and check the line 'Depends on' | 12:57 |

| norbert79 | holms: Here is the link to the WSGI page: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/DownloadTheSoftware?tm=2 | 12:58 |
| Lachezar | holms: There seems to be a WSGIPythonHome directive. Maybe this can help? | 12:59 |
| norbert79 | Lachezar: Might cause issues, since the module was compiled for 2.6 | 12:59 |
| holms | hm let'see | 12:59 |
| norbert79 | Lachezar: So I would not recommend that, but compiling it against 2.7 | 12:59 |

| norbert79 | Tom22: just as generic reminder: make sure your speakers are attached to your soundcard | 13:05 |

| Lachezar | Oh. While I'm at it: I am having trouble running Ubuntu (From USB) on my new home computer: I get 'Boot failure' and do not reach GRUB at all. | 13:11 |
| IamTrying | hyperstream, pain???? what do you mean nothing supports or do not get installed or you just unable to complete | 13:11 |
| Lachezar | Tried using the 'Live USB Maker', and tried manually installing GRUB to the USB stick. Windows 7 USB boots :( | 13:11 |
| Ramonskie | when i burn or put the ubuntu server 10.10 on usb and i put it in my machine i get redirected to gnu grub 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3. and can't do anything also the list of command when pressing TAB is confussing | 13:12 |
| hyperstream | IamTrying, well the touchpad and the little stick thing in the middle of the keyboard was working properly pulling to one side etc. USB mouse didnt help. That was the hardest part of the installation. I also had to install from grub menu rather than livecd enviroment(failed most the way through). | 13:13 |

| hyperstream | IamTrying, Oh man, ahah my 8200 is like 512MB ram, old school. That machine should fly with ubuntu on it. | 13:22 |
| hyperstream | IamTrying, just dual boot it for peace of mind if you want. Install it next to your windows. Or use some sort of a partitioning software to shrink your main partition to free up some space to place ubuntu on its own. | 13:23 |

| hyperstream | Ramonskie, ahh, just to make sure, you are planning to use this as a desktop ? | 13:28 |
| Ramonskie | hyperstream, and with the usb i rtied unetbootin or and the diskcreator | 13:28 |
| hyperstream | Ramonskie, its weird cause you should be prompted with a screen where you can choose what you want to do. IE: live cd | install | check for defects etc | 13:28 |
| ericandrewlewis | is it ill-advised to buy an apple computer if i'm planning on using ubuntu in the future? | 13:28 |
| Ramonskie | hyperstream, no the is going to be a server, i had the 10.04 installed but there where alot of problems with the network card so i wiped the thing i wanted to start with a newer version | 13:29 |
| * ericandrewlewis is aware of dual booting / partitioning | 13:29 | |
| PhorceP | Ramonskie: I believe 10.10 will become unsupported in April, so it may not be the best choice of versions | 13:30 |
| dr_willis | ericandrewlewis: why pay the extra $if you dont need osx | 13:30 |
| hyperstream | Ramonskie, ahh, im afraid its out of my reach. From what i've semi gathered/pictured, i figured there was an old ubuntu grub loader that is kicking over instead of booting from CD or USB (BIOS Boot order) | 13:30 |
| ericandrewlewis | dr_willis b/c i've become accustomed to osx over the past 7 years, and the applications built on it | 13:30 |
| dr_willis | ericandrewlewis: you just as | 13:31 |
| jatt | actually apple machines are popular among some linux (kernel) developers afaik | 13:31 |
| Ramonskie | PhorceP, the newer version has some dependency that dont work with cloudfoundry setup | 13:31 |
| dr_willis | ansewered your iwn question then | 13:31 |
| reisio | ericandrewlewis: Linux supports Apple hardware well | 13:31 |

| holms | osx have macports no problem to work in there who need photoshop, especially web devs :P | 13:31 |

| ericandrewlewis | just wondering if there's any practical issues with using ubuntu on mac hardware, no then? | 13:31 |
| reisio | they're just expensive because of their trendiness | 13:31 |
| reisio | not really no | 13:32 |

| holms | those who buying to browse the web are idiots | 13:32 |
| Ramonskie | hyperstream, i thought that was the problem also but when i removed the cd or usb it just tells me that there is nothing installed :) | 13:32 |
| reisio | they are well built, just not twice the price well built | 13:32 |
| holms | but those who buying them for media pro software, for exmaple logic studio (and coreaudio in osx have 3x better latency) | 13:33 |
| holms | it's the way to go | 13:33 |
| holms | coreaudio implemented on kernel level | 13:33 |
| hyperstream | Ramonskie, What happeneds if you select the default option (or there is none ?) <-- you said you had a grub screen etc. | 13:33 |
| holms | windows it's on userland, which is 12-15ms latency instead of 3ms | 13:33 |

| jtannenbaum | yea | 13:35 |
| mdupont | hi all | 13:35 |
| LjL | silver_hook: yes, and yes. maybe it would be better to wait until Precise is out, and upgrade directly to that. | 13:35 |
| silver_hook | 12.04? Why? | 13:35 |
| hyperstream | jtannenbaum, i would try rebooting (if you havnt) sometimes things are just a little funky and is fixed when reloaded. | 13:36 |
| jtannenbaum | mm, thanks | 13:36 |
| silver_hook | Will that be LTS again | 13:36 |
| LjL | silver_hook: because 12.04 will be LTS like 10.04, so you can upgrade directly to it without going version-by-version | 13:36 |

| sipior | jdhfr: fairly common optional hardware, you mean. | 14:48 |
| prower | sipior: oh yes, the bug is in there...it hasn't been assigned to anyone yet but it's there :> it's just a bit discouraging to have some of the basic functionality of python broken when you're writing apps in it...particularly for new users to python, a lot of tutorials direct you to help() modules and on a typical 64-bit, unity installation that causes a crash :/ it'll all be fixed in time though | 14:48 |

| UICTamale | has anyone seen a problem with shutting down ubuntu in 11.10? Every time I shut down, the machine hangs after a few seconds' worth of the alternating orange and white blocks under the word 'ubuntu'. | 14:57 |
| iggymydog | im a noob at ubuntu | 14:57 |
| theadmin | iggymydog: java -jar minecraft.jar | 14:57 |
| iggymydog | guest64575: can you walk me through it? | 14:57 |
| DinoMuffin | iggymydog: you need to use the minecraft jar file with a specific command | 14:57 |
| UICTamale | iggymydog: You need to open your terminal. It's under accessories | 14:57 |
| DinoMuffin | iggymydog: specifically the one I gave you above | 14:57 |
| iggymydog | ok term got it | 14:58 |
| iggymydog | its open | 14:58 |

| Teddy1 | How to see streams that use windows media player as player in firefox?! | 15:37 |
| john_doe_jr | does anyone know how to unset an environment variable in ubuntu? | 15:37 |
| Tucks | #ubuntu-offtopic for general discussions! hooray, I found it! | 15:37 |
| dr_willis | john_doe_jr: if you are lucky - you could cut/paste the stream url into vlc, or some other players and they may work. | 15:37 |

| john_doe_jr | dr_willis, were you talking to me? | 15:38 |
| mneptok | happyblue: the USB Creator app has always worked well for me, and was simple enough to use that i did not have to seek advice on getting a USB stick to boot. ;) | 15:38 |
| Psych | i dont speak german .. | 15:38 |
| dr_willis | john_doe_jr: or try the various vlc-firefox plugin, or totem firefox plugin, or some otehrs. (i tend to cut/paste) | 15:38 |
| dr_willis | john_doe_jr: i got on the wrong line. :) | 15:38 |
| Teddy1 | its not german | 15:38 |
| Teddy1 | :p | 15:38 |
| dr_willis | that was for Teddy1 | 15:38 |
| epron | one more thing. Although I've enabled ssh rate limiting with ufw, I see quite a lot of failed password from sshd and the same ip in auth.log | 15:38 |
| Teddy1 | it was both of us | 15:38 |
| Psych | i have understand xDD but the language is german xD | 15:38 |
| jdhfr | it was german | 15:39 |
| happyblue | mneptok I wonder if my live-cd that iam using is just screwed | 15:39 |
| epron | and also cat ufw.log | grep limit is always null | 15:39 |
| dr_willis | john_doe_jr: export foo="" (i think) to unset | 15:39 |
| Teddy1 | dr_willis: oh i didnt see you write that | 15:39 |
| mneptok | happyblue: or the USB media you're using is nearing EOL | 15:39 |
| prower | epron: probably just drive-by scripts trying to brute force their way in, i changed the default port for ssh and never saw any failed attempts again except for my own | 15:39 |
| epron | prower: I know, but ufw is supposed to rate limit them | 15:40 |
| Kartagis | dr_willis: I can play sounds but not input. where do I look? | 15:40 |
| epron | i still get > 15-15 entries per ip in a 2 minutes timespan | 15:40 |
| happyblue | mneptok but besides that problem, I cant install any programmes during my live-session, so theres something wrong with that | 15:40 |
| Teddy1 | dr_willis: I dont havent had so much good times with vlc in the browser(in windows or ubuntu) | 15:40 |
| john_doe_jr | dr_willis, that sets it | 15:40 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: most effective way to reduce failed attempts is to move sshd to a non-standard port | 15:41 |
| prower | epron: hmm...not sure what to tell you there i've never set up rate limiting...maybe there's an option in sshd_config that would do the job | 15:41 |
| happyblue | mneptok does not matter if its a small or a large programme | 15:41 |
| john_doe_jr | What kind of problems are you having w/ VLC...I know a lot about this type of thing? | 15:41 |
| happyblue | mneptok seems like dpkg has got some problem | 15:41 |
| nabeel | hi | 15:42 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: yo | 15:42 |
| DinoMuffin | woops | 15:42 |
| Psych | xD | 15:42 |
| epron | I see... yeah it sounds ok to change the default ssh port | 15:42 |
| Teddy1 | john_doe_jr. its not with vlc, but it is a stream from tv, but they use only and onlys support windows media player | 15:42 |
| epron | I'll have to change some deployment scripts though | 15:42 |
| epron | sigh.. | 15:42 |
| Teddy1 | cant get it to work with vlc | 15:42 |
| epron | one more thing... is it ok to just rm -rf .log and .log.1 ? | 15:43 |
| DinoMuffin | why | 15:43 |
| Teddy1 | john_doe_jr http://www.nrk.no/nett-tv/direkte/nrk1/ | 15:44 |

| epron | i don't want /var/log filled with logs | 15:44 |
| epron | plus i want to keep track of some stuff | 15:44 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: uhh | 15:44 |
| epron | it's been some time since i did some administration | 15:45 |
| epron | and this is our production server | 15:45 |
| epron | i need to keep track of some stuff | 15:45 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: well, you can remove the log if you want. linux will just make another one | 15:45 |
| auronandace | epron: that is the point of /var/log/ to keep logs | 15:45 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: most of the time my logs don't ever get over 15MBs or so | 15:45 |
| epron | ok | 15:45 |
| DinoMuffin | for the entire folder | 15:45 |
| john_doe_jr | Teddy1, you probably need chromium or chrome with non-free installed | 15:45 |
| epron | what's the limit before they get gz'ed | 15:46 |
| Teddy1 | epron: the logs should be logging veeery much to be start using your hdd | 15:46 |
| Teddy1 | john_doe_jr: doe you happen to know the commands in your head? | 15:46 |
| DinoMuffin | epron: IIRC the log files are managed by logrotate cron | 15:47 |

| auronandace | romeyro: apart from that you can close the terminal | 16:04 |

| zippytech | when I copy a say 2 gig file to a usb drive, my desktop almost becomes unresponsive till the copy is done. does any one else have that problem | 16:12 |
| memyself | i'm worry about using ubuntu as it has no firewall | 16:12 |
| jdhfr | zippytech: that problem is a trademark of linux | 16:13 |
| LjL | !firewall | memyself | 16:13 |
| ubottu | memyself: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 16:13 |
| bazhang | !iptables | memyself | 16:13 |
| ChrisGagnon | zippytech: if you use the deadline scheduler thaat problem doesn't happen | 16:13 |
| LjL | memyself: you should never really use an unsecured wifi connection, anyway. it's a very bad idea. | 16:13 |
| jdhfr | only reach people can afford secure wireless | 16:14 |
| zippytech | thanks I will look into that | 16:14 |
| bazhang | jdhfr, thats enough | 16:14 |
| memyself | ljl , how bad is using unsecured wifi connection ? cos most free wifi at fastfood restarant are unsecured | 16:14 |
| auronandace | jdhfr: don't talk nonsense | 16:14 |
| sipior | memyself: you'll want to look into a decent vpn solution for open access points. | 16:14 |
| LjL | memyself: well, anyone can see the data you're sending and receiving. | 16:14 |
| bazhang | jdhfr, editorializing and offtopic commentary in #ubuntu-offtopic | 16:15 |
| LjL | memyself: so you should absolutely *never* send plaintext passwords over unsecured wifi, for one thing | 16:15 |
| ChrisGagnon | zippytech: use 'echo deadline | sudo tee /sys/block/<your block device here IE: sda>/queue/scheduler' to switch to deadline | 16:15 |
| romeyro__ | auronandace, sorry if i m taking time to answer its because my computer froze up everytime i click on the terminal and i had to turn it off :S. Same thing happened with compiz --replace ccp & | 16:15 |
| memyself | is it encrypted when you use unsecured wifi to browse those site with https ? | 16:16 |
| mneptok | memyself: yes | 16:16 |
| LjL | memyself: yes, https is encrypted, but other things are not | 16:16 |
| esuave | memyself: are there really hackers hanging out at the local fast food joint there? | 16:17 |
| jpds | esuave: You never know. | 16:17 |
| memyself | i'm worry unsecured wifi will not protect my laptop when other side of the net user attack me | 16:17 |
| DinoMuffin | it's just a general a security risk | 16:18 |
| auronandace | romeyro__: sorry, i stopped using compiz a while ago (always been too buggy for me on xfce) | 16:18 |
| LjL | memyself: you're right to worry. if you're really set on using unsecured wifi, at least enable a firewall. | 16:18 |
| DinoMuffin | anyone, ANYONE, with a packet sniffer can pull all the non encrypted data | 16:18 |
| mneptok | esuave: in a big city, you have at least 100 people living and working within range of a storefront. they're there all day. roll those dice. | 16:18 |
| auronandace | romeyro__: so my compiz knowege is rather old | 16:18 |
| memyself | i just installed ubuntu without enabling any firewall as some say there no such need | 16:19 |
| romeyro__ | auronandace, haha its ok, i m checking on google. Thank you for your help :) | 16:20 |
| DinoMuffin | memyself: it's not in most cases | 16:20 |
| auronandace | memyself: most regular users will likely never need to touch the firewall | 16:20 |
| DinoMuffin | memyself: if you're on your own private LAN behind a router, you're fine | 16:20 |
| memyself | it's not ? meaning ? | 16:20 |
| memyself | so now the question is should i or shouldn't i configure firewall ? | 16:21 |
| LjL | memyself: there is no need if you're behind a router like most people are. but if you're going to use unsecured wifi, i'd say there is a need. | 16:21 |
| mgreenway | I am trying to updrade to a newer kernel | 16:21 |
| LjL | memyself: if you ask me, yes you should | 16:21 |
| esuave | memyself: yeah i would enable firewall too | 16:21 |
| mgreenway | there doesn't seem to be testing repos like in debian | 16:21 |
| jpds | memyself: All you need to do is: sudo ufw enable | 16:22 |
| memyself | i just read something like ubuntu initially close all port so there's really no need to do anyting | 16:22 |
| jpds | memyself: Yes, but you might install something that will open a port. | 16:22 |
| memyself | and some say ufw is outdate no more update | 16:22 |
| jpds | memyself: Whay? | 16:22 |
| mgreenway | how would I install a kernel like 3.1.0 are there ubuntu testing repos? | 16:23 |

| jpds | memyself: No. | 16:23 |

| Offlein | I am using UFW and I would like to forward all incoming traffic [on a specific port] hitting this computer to another computer/port on this computer's network. I guess using Masquerading. Does anyone know how to do this? | 16:24 |
| memyself | so enabling the firewall just by entering ufw enable and then that's all no configuration required ? | 16:24 |
| Boreeas | Hey, my Ubuntu partition only has 5 GB of free space left. The drive has about 50 GB of unallocated space left, how to I extend my partition to use this space? | 16:24 |
| memyself | for the ufw info , i guess i got it from google | 16:25 |
| LjL | Boreeas: use gparted from a live CD (and have a backup) | 16:25 |
| auronandace | memyself: google is a search engine, google led you to? | 16:25 |
| zaya | boreeas just make sure to back up what you want just incase | 16:26 |
| Boreeas | No easy way to do it? Alright then | 16:26 |
| abys | can somebody tell me what packages ubuntu is using to set up wireless ? | 16:26 |
| sipior | Boreeas: before you do that, make sure the reserved block percentage on that partition is set to zero: "sudo /sbintune2fs -m 0 /dev/<device>". should give you five percent of the volume back. | 16:26 |
| sipior | Boreeas: sorry: "/sbin/tune2fs" | 16:27 |
| LjL | sipior: err, is that a really good idea though? | 16:27 |
| sipior | LjL: yes, it is. | 16:27 |
| Boreeas | So, burn Gparted on a disk (does a flashdrive work too, if the bios can boot from a flashdrive) and then modify the partittion? | 16:27 |
| tado | how do i open pgp encrypted files with nautilus? (or how do i encrypt new files?)... i read here that seahorse is no longer working https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/seahorse-plugins/+bug/796752/ | 16:27 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 796752 in seahorse-plugins (Ubuntu) "[Oneiric] Attempt to install would lead to removal of essential packages" [High,Triaged] | 16:27 |
| Boreeas | sipior: Sorry, I didn't understand that. What is that going to do? | 16:27 |
| sipior | LjL: reserved blocks is an ancient defense mechanism, which wastes tens of gigabytes on modern drives. time to bury it. | 16:28 |
| gandhijee_ | hey, what do i need to install in the base chroot ubuntu to have it setup a different hostname for itself, and get the color and auto-complete stuff going on? | 16:28 |
| LjL | sipior: is there a replacement for it, though? | 16:28 |
| sipior | LjL: none is really required. | 16:29 |
| memyself | Firewall is active and enabled on system startup , means i got the ufw start up already or i need to restart? | 16:29 |
| esuave | looking for some load testing solutions to test some of my ubuntu 8 servers.. anyone know of anything good? | 16:30 |
| memyself | ooh , it's firestarter that is obselete | 16:30 |
| sipior | Boreeas: ext filesystem creation generally reserves a small portion of disk block for exclusive access of the superuser. this is old-fashioned, but surprisingly common even on modern machines. turn it off, and get a fair bit of space back. | 16:30 |
| sipior | Boreeas: you'll still want to claim that unused 50GB, but this might take some of the pressure off. | 16:30 |
| Boreeas | sipior: So /dev/<device> would be the ubuntu filesystem, not the unallocated? Alright, I'll do that, thanks | 16:31 |
| gandhijee_ | sipior, the reason it still exists is so that the system still has space for log files... if that particular volume isn't being used for any logging use tune2fs to change the storage amount | 16:32 |
| sipior | Boreeas: yep, the partition you want to modify. | 16:32 |
| sipior | gandhijee_: no, that's not why. | 16:32 |
| gandhijee_ | then why | 16:32 |
| LjL | Boreeas: please keep in mind that the operation sipior is suggesting *does* take away the capability for root processes to access reserved blocks, which might impair those processes' ability to do their work when the disk is full. if you do that, be aware of the consequences. | 16:32 |
| sipior | gandhijee_: this isn't the 80's. | 16:32 |
| gandhijee_ | so you don't keep log files for you systems? | 16:32 |
| gandhijee_ | i know its save my butt before. | 16:32 |
| sipior | gandhijee_: that's nice. | 16:32 |
| gandhijee_ | so you still haven't given a valid reason.... | 16:33 |
| sipior | gandhijee_: i have no interest in validating my opinions to you. do what you want, as i will. | 16:35 |
| LjL | sipior: the problem is not what you do but what you recommend to people in this channel. | 16:35 |
| gandhijee_ | pretty much | 16:35 |
| gandhijee_ | if you have a good reason for it, then please share, otherwise, don't just say this is what it is. | 16:36 |

| Sicp | please see this thread, http://askubuntu.com/questions/76712/setting-nautilus-open-terminal-to-launch-terminator-rather-than-gnome-terminal | 16:37 |
| Sicp | look at the first answer, I cannot find anything called "dconf-tools" in my repositories. All I can find is "dconf" and it doesn't have a "gsettings" tool with it | 16:37 |
| sipior | llutz: that is indeed fair, at least on /. still, when has that been a problem in the last decade? :-) | 16:37 |
| llutz | sipior: that root-reserved blocks only make sense on / or /tmp or /var, but is pretty nonsense on all other data-fs | 16:38 |
| sipior | llutz: even then, i have reservations (ahem) | 16:38 |
| Sicp | why do I need dconf-tools anyway | 16:40 |
| Sicp | can't I change that value from gconf-editor? | 16:40 |
| pfifo | llutz, what about fragmentation concerns? | 16:40 |
| Sicp | I just follow the package names | 16:40 |
| h00k | Sicp: because new things are using dconf, if i recall correctly | 16:41 |
| Sicp | new? I'm on 10.04 | 16:41 |
| Sicp | still considered new? | 16:41 |
| sipior | pfifo: that becomes an issue above 85%-90% usage. you surely wouldn't reserve that much? | 16:41 |

| troy- | i've installed ubuntu 11.10 - how can i encrypt the entire filesystem? | 17:41 |
| troy- | the alternative installer did not work for me | 17:41 |
| mneptok | troy-: you need to define encrypted space during manual partitioning of the alternate installation | 17:42 |
| meco | OK, what's the best approach for documenting the lousy quality of my ISP uplink, say over a 24-hour period? I'm thinking of saving the ping replies to a file and then creating a graphical output from that. Any easy way of doing this? | 17:42 |
| troy- | mneptok: the alt installer could not find the usb key | 17:43 |
| troy- | so i was forced to use the regular installer | 17:43 |
| pikaciu | meco: write a script and then libeoffice speadshhet to create a graphic | 17:44 |
| mneptok | troy-: i have no idea if the GUI installer supports LVM, as i always use the alternate. | 17:44 |
| meco | pikaciu: I can't code. | 17:44 |
| gridbag | why is the desktop so slow this release? Dash Home takes 1.5 seconds to show up. This is driving me bats. | 17:44 |
| meco | I was thinking there is probably an app made by someone already which will do this... | 17:44 |
| Pumpkin- | meco: investigate a package called smokeping. Gives you output like http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping-demo/?target=Customers.OP | 17:44 |
| gridbag | well, maybe .5 secs now. | 17:45 |
| mneptok | troy-: the system you *did* install should have the USB Ctreator tool, and you can use that to put the -alternate .iso on USB media | 17:45 |
| meco | Pumpkin-: appreciate it | 17:45 |
| gridbag | its as annoying as hell. all my apps take >2 secs to start the firs ttime. Home Folder, xchat, etc. | 17:45 |

| module000 | color: create an upstart script for it, use the sysV script that comes with it, or do it badly with rc.local. take your pick | 17:54 |
| color | module000: cool thanks | 17:54 |
| color | module000: if you don't mind me asking what is a sysV script? | 17:55 |
| forever1 | why does VLC player stutter when changing a song? | 17:56 |
| color | module000: all I see is perl scripts and bash.. | 17:56 |
| module000 | color: a sysV script is the type of script you find in /etc/init.d - generic unix start-up scripts. they are replaced in ubuntu by upstart, which uses scripts in /etc/init | 17:56 |
| module000 | color: did you run the install script for csf? | 17:57 |
| color | module000: gotcha, but should I just make a softlink to the actual csf.pl script? | 17:57 |

| vlt | Hello. I installed oneiric via debootstrap and now get "kernel: cannot read proc file system: 1 - Operation not permitted." about 5e06 times a minute. Any idea how to fix this? | 17:59 |
| color | module000: yes..I think, I just did make && make install | 17:59 |
| module000 | color: that's good, it means it installed it's own sysV script. now you would want to make a symlink to that in /etc/rc2.d - try `ln -s /etc/init.d/csf /etc/rc2.d/S99csf` | 18:00 |
| module000 | color: that would tell it to start last after you reboot | 18:00 |

| vlt | lea255ace: Just use it. | 18:02 |
| theadmin | lea255ace: It does work, however it will not change the directory after the script exits. That is, it does not propagate to parent shell. You can't change that. | 18:03 |
| color | module000: it looks like the symlink was created | 18:03 |
| michael_44 | How do I change the effect of the window that I exit out off? I see peaces flying every where. Is there another eye candy? | 18:03 |
| module000 | then you should be good | 18:03 |
| lea255ace | would it work to do $ source 'script.h' | 18:03 |

| color | module000: to remove the symlink I would just delete it from the folder and it wont remove the or script | 18:06 |
| module000 | color: that's right, it will only remove the link | 18:06 |

| chreekat | On 11.10, how do I go about choosing to boot a different kernel? | 18:17 |
| ai6pg | chreekat - when booting - grub you should be able to use your arrow keys to open a list of possible additional kernels to boot from if they are installed into grub. | 18:18 |
| trism | color: both | 18:19 |
| chreekat | ai6pg: I can't seem to make the grub menu pop up. Is there some key I can press so it doesn't automatically boot the default? Is there some way to make the wait-time longer? I've managed to find /etc/default/grub, which has GRUB_TIMEOUT=10, but I think that's a red herring | 18:20 |

| Rogue|Panda_ | ok so running ubuntu 11.1, is it possible to just run the older gnome? | 18:23 |
| auronandace | !gnome2 | Rogue|Panda_ | 18:24 |
| ubottu | Rogue|Panda_: The GNOME Foundation has ceased support for GNOME 2, and as such it is not in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot). See !notunity for an alternative desktop experience. | 18:24 |
| trism | color: yes, you can split screen too, but I use tmux these days as well | 18:24 |
| Rogue|Panda_ | wait.... so gnome2 is dead? | 18:24 |
| Rogue|Panda_ | that makes me a sad panda | 18:24 |
| Rogue|Panda_ | !nounity | 18:24 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 18:24 |

| chreekat | but otoh, it looks like 3.0.0-14 was installed on 22-jan and I certainly used my webcam after that. So maybe this wouldn't help anyway. :/ | 18:26 |

| module000 | chreekat: look for your webcam in the output of `lspci -vvv`. see if it has a "Driver in use:" section, if that is blank then you updated yourself out of a webcam driver | 18:35 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: tried gnome-shell? | 18:35 |
| Rogue|Panda | nope | 18:35 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: are you using unity or something? | 18:35 |
| Rogue|Panda | module000, yeah | 18:36 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: unity = canonical's idea of what gnome3 should look like. gnome-shell = gnome's idea of what gnome should look like. | 18:36 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: you might like it more(or less), but just a thought | 18:36 |
| Rogue|Panda | looks nice but starting to irk me | 18:36 |
| Rogue|Panda | I ran gnome3 on Mint, but you couldnt really configure it | 18:36 |
| Rogue|Panda | so if I install it, it will be in the options at the login screen? | 18:37 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: yea none of the old gnome2 tools are present to customize as much. 'gnometweak' is pretty useful, but still nor eplacement for all the goodies gnome2 had to customize the experience | 18:37 |
| Rogue|Panda | gnome-shell that is | 18:37 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: yep | 18:37 |
| module000 | Rogue|Panda: it will just be listed as 'Gnome' | 18:37 |
| chreekat | module000: It doesn't even show up in lspci. :( I suppose that indicates a hardware problem, eh? | 18:38 |
| module000 | chreekat: is this a laptop? | 18:38 |
| chreekat | module000: it is | 18:38 |
| module000 | chreekat: make sure you don't have a hotkey combination with a picture of your webcam on it, if it's not in lspci there is a good chance it's turned "off". like a function key would accomplish | 18:38 |
| inox^ | Hi | 18:39 |
| module000 | chreekat: and as a last resort, take a look in `lsusb` as well(in case it's connected via usb). and look at `dmesg` for any sign of it | 18:39 |
| chreekat | module000: ah holy crap, thank you. This is in fact not the first time I've done this. Totally forgot about that key. Musta hit it on accident. | 18:39 |

| cosmic303 | hiya all.. i was just tryin to update thunderbird, and i have no idea where i can find the current installation. in the .desktop file where i would expect the path, it just says "thunderbird %u" ..does anyone know what the %u variable is for? | 19:04 |
| _Ethan_ | if i press tab it should complete with the name right? | 19:04 |
| xangua | fzlamn: what are you trying to acomplish with that outdated ppa¿ what ubuntu version do you use¿ | 19:04 |
| iText | pikaclu: an editor, that is used to edit Devanagari Text | 19:04 |
| theadmin | cosmic303: Substituded by the URL of the selected file. Mainly for using with Nautilus' "Open With" | 19:04 |
| acerimmer | _Ethan_: yes but you have to provide enough clues for the autocomplete | 19:04 |
| theadmin | cosmic303: To update thunderbird, you need to just run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | 19:05 |
| fzlamn | xangua: i'm running 11.10 | 19:05 |
| theadmin | cosmic303: To the latest officially available version in Ubuntu anyway | 19:05 |
| MFen | fzlamn: xangua: that's interesting. on my system they are symlinked to the same command. i wonder if that's not always the case? apparently on xangua's system they are different somehow | 19:05 |
| pikaciu | iText : the name ? | 19:05 |
| MFen | fzlamn: ls -l /usr/bin/apt-add-repository | 19:05 |
| iText | pikaclu: this deb package i made, it is still not ported to ubuntu | 19:05 |
| MFen | if it's a link to /usr/bin/add-apt-repository, then that's not your problem | 19:05 |
| cosmic303 | theadmin: if i do that, it tells me its the current version..but im on 3.1.16 | 19:05 |
| cosmic303 | and current should be 10.0 | 19:05 |
| theadmin | cosmic303: Ah, sounds like you need to change to another Ubuntu release then, or use the PPAs. | 19:06 |
| xangua | fzlamn: then you already have unity 4 | 19:06 |
| auronandace | !info firefox lucid | 19:06 |
| ubottu | firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 9.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.2 (lucid), package size 15611 kB, installed size 30904 kB | 19:06 |
| xangua | fzlamn: that ppa has a beta version, i see no need for it | 19:06 |
| theadmin | cosmic303: Run this, please: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/thunderbird-stable && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 19:06 |
| cosmic303 | kk, lemme try that | 19:06 |
| _Ethan_ | acerimmer, thanks. But for example, in my desktop i have only one file, "test.odt" , in the terminal shouldnt it appear when pressing tab? | 19:07 |
| _Ethan_ | ls | 19:07 |
| pikaciu | iText : if you don't have and executive file (in usr(bin, ad example) you cannot run an application | 19:07 |
| _Ethan_ | ls test.odt xx@xx:~/Desktop$ | 19:07 |
| _Ethan_ | so, if i write "tes" and press tab, why it does not complete? | 19:08 |
| acerimmer | _Ethan_: not a terminal expert but in my experience, autocomplete only pertains to commands | 19:08 |
| theadmin | _Ethan_: "test.odt" is not a program | 19:08 |
| _Ethan_ | i think also for folders/files | 19:08 |
| _Ethan_ | so, need to be a program ? | 19:08 |
| theadmin | _Ethan_: Therefore, you need to specify something like this: xdg-open tes<tab> | 19:08 |
| _Ethan_ | got it now | 19:09 |
| _Ethan_ | cd .. | 19:09 |
| _Ethan_ | ups sorry | 19:09 |
| cosmic303 | oh well..i guess its downloading 9.0 now..thats at least better than 3.1.16... | 19:09 |
| cosmic303 | thank u theadmin | 19:10 |
| _Ethan_ | theadmin, would you recommend me any program for editing ? | 19:10 |
| theadmin | _Ethan_: By the way, xdg-open is the command to open the file in the default application. You can obviously just tell it to use swriter (which is the command for odt files, i.e. LibreOffice Writer) directly. | 19:10 |
| _Ethan_ | geany for example | 19:10 |
| theadmin | _Ethan_: Vim is my main recommendation to everyone, but then again it's rather confusing for beginners. Geany is good. jEdit is also great and very similar, but needs Java. Cream is also a good one | 19:10 |
| _Ethan_ | ok, then iĺl go ahead with vim | 19:11 |
| _Ethan_ | :D | 19:11 |
| theadmin | _Ethan_: You need to probably learn how to use it first, because it's not just "open the editor and start typing". That is, unless you already know how to. | 19:11 |

| Gentoo64 | meco, gui editors are good in the way you can just double click a file in file manager to open it | 20:11 |
| === jzn_ is now known as kernel- | ||
| Gentoo64 | if youre on a terminal then cli ones would be easier.. | 20:11 |
| kapz | *wonders if he will be answered...! ... | 20:11 |
| CharlieSu | _meberhart: neither have been updated in years.. I have to assume there is something better.. | 20:12 |
| meco | Gentoo64: ok | 20:12 |
| fzlamn | CharlieSu: try backbox | 20:12 |
| Gentoo64 | kapz, i suppose youd just learn what changes there are as you go | 20:13 |
| Gentoo64 | what do you mean "learn ubuntu like slackware">? | 20:13 |
| Gentoo64 | CharlieSu, any distro will probably be alright, if its specific pen testing stuff you need to do, then most package managers have the individual apps | 20:14 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, so the message says that "my current network domain is .local, which is not recommended with avahi" | 20:15 |
| meco | Does anyone here have experience in setting up smokeping and can help me with it? | 20:15 |
| ikonia | meco: smokeping ? | 20:15 |
| meco | ikonia: yes | 20:15 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn: sorry it has noting to do with missig file. i misread it earlier | 20:15 |
| v-himanshu | s/noting/nothing | 20:15 |
| ikonia | meco: never even heard of it, what is it and what's the issue ? | 20:15 |
| danols | are ubuntu and debian same? | 20:15 |
| ikonia | danols: no | 20:15 |
| acerimmer | !debian|danols | 20:16 |
| ubottu | danols: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/what-is-debian.html - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 20:16 |
| meco | ikonia: It's a ping utility that is accessed as a cgi script on the localfost web servers | 20:16 |
| ikonia | meco: sounds quite insecure | 20:16 |
| fzlamn | v-himanshu: seem like i can help you just here | 20:16 |
| meco | ikonia: It's me who is going to use it. | 20:16 |
| ikonia | meco: I'm sure, sounds quite insecure as a concept though | 20:17 |
| ikonia | meco: what's the issue setting it up ? | 20:17 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, your firstaid box doesn;t have any aid for this you mean? | 20:17 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, that's ok. Thanks for your help so far | 20:17 |
| v-himanshu | thing is i am looking for some pointers that might be of some help in debugging it | 20:18 |

| kapz | Gentoo64: I don't follow you! what do you mean exactly? Every system is different that I know, just where to look is my question. | 20:18 |
| v-himanshu | but its just not coming along | 20:18 |
| danols | so bottom line Third, Ubuntu makes much more frequent and fresher releases. Our release policy of releasing every six months is (at the time of writing :-) unique in the Linux distribution world. Ubuntu aims to provide you with a regular stable and security-supported snapshot of the best of the open source world. | 20:18 |
| fzlamn | v-himanshu: i guest i can help you and i'm here with a problem to.. :D | 20:18 |
| meco | ikonia: Well, I've installed it with no hitches. But then I'm lost trying to follow the instructions after that. http://localhost/cgi/smokeping.cgi doesn't show anything yet | 20:18 |
| danols | thanks guys | 20:18 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, what's yours? | 20:19 |
| Gentoo64 | kapz, youd have to learn as you go, as every distro is different, there isn't a "standard" to compare ubuntu to | 20:19 |
| ikonia | meco: have you setup the website to host cgi ? | 20:19 |
| ikonia | meco: if you visit "http://localhost" do you get the default welcome page | 20:19 |
| meco | ikonia: Nope, and yes | 20:19 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, and where should i look for this | 20:19 |
| v-himanshu | i mean for my problem | 20:19 |
| Gentoo64 | meco, run sudo ss -l see if its listening | 20:19 |
| ikonia | meco: ok, then you know where you need to look | 20:20 |
| danols | can someone check if ubutnu has freeswitch ? pakcage? | 20:20 |
| Gentoo64 | !freeswitch | 20:20 |
| Gentoo64 | :s | 20:20 |
| fzlamn | v-himanshu: i need to sleep, it 4am at my place. you can keep going ask and maybe someone have a better solution for you. i'm sorry friend. | 20:20 |
| ikonia | !info freeswitch | 20:21 |
| ubottu | Package freeswitch does not exist in oneiric | 20:21 |
| ikonia | there you go | 20:21 |
| === Mud is now known as Guest11407 | ||
| meco | Gentoo64: What should I be looking for in that output? | 20:21 |
| v-himanshu | fzlamn, thanks. that's ok | 20:21 |
| danols | hmm | 20:21 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: have you tried setting up a static wifi connection? | 20:22 |
| meco | ikonia: you mean, looking for a tutorial on enabling the web server to host cgi? | 20:22 |
| porkchop85 | Does anyone here have any experence with PXE | 20:22 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, no sir | 20:22 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: couldn't hurt. You might be having DHCP issues | 20:22 |
| kapz | Gentoo64: facepalm at you! you didn't even guide me to a answer! | 20:23 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, can you give some pointers please | 20:23 |
| ikonia | meco: install the cfi modules, make sure the site has cgi enable and a cgi-root set, dump the script in, and you're done | 20:23 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: you'll need to find out the network address of your router | 20:23 |
| meco | ikonia: haha... I didn't undderstand any of that... | 20:23 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: usually either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 | 20:23 |
| Gentoo64 | kapz, i did answer you | 20:23 |
| esuave | anyone successfully setup a Siri Proxy in here before? | 20:24 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: then go into your network config and setup a static connection | 20:24 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, ok. let me see this | 20:24 |
| kapz | Gentoo64: Please don't answer me anymore! you pathetic little fool | 20:25 |
| Gentoo64 | why troll though | 20:25 |
| ikonia | kapz: stop that | 20:25 |
| ikonia | kapz: no need for name calling | 20:25 |
| kapz | no trooll...y answer like a troll? | 20:25 |
| Gentoo64 | im niot | 20:25 |
| meco | ikonia: I've located the script in two place: /usr/share/smokeping/cgi-bin/ and /usr/lib/cgi-bin/. Now, does it need to be copied somewhere else, like in /var/www/? | 20:25 |
| ikonia | kapz: iif you want to learn ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com | 20:25 |
| Gentoo64 | so you want to know what changes ubuntu has, comapred to what distro... ? | 20:25 |
| Gentoo64 | liek i said | 20:26 |
| ikonia | meco it needs to be whereever you have set the cgi root for your website | 20:26 |
| Gentoo64 | theres no "standard" distro | 20:26 |
| ikonia | meco: you need to make sure cgi modules are enabled | 20:26 |
| kapz | Then y answer my Q in a Generic way, when i was specific! | 20:26 |
| GleasonGrails | If a window gets stuck under the top panel in unity is there anyway to hide the top panel to get to it | 20:26 |
| GleasonGrails | short of installing gnome | 20:26 |
| ikonia | kapz: you have the answer, lets move on | 20:26 |
| kapz | thanks ikonia | 20:26 |
| meco | ikonia: OK, then the next step I don't know about is how to enable cgi, and then to set the cgi-root. | 20:27 |
| sskalnik | aptitude equivalent of apt-get sources? | 20:27 |
| ikonia | meco: there should be a package called somehing like "mod-cgi", then the cgi root is set in the apache sites config file (I'm assuming you are using the default site) | 20:27 |
| GleasonGrails | nm got it | 20:27 |
| kapz | WoW.... | 20:27 |
| GleasonGrails | right click on the edge and I can use move | 20:28 |
| meco | ikonia: 'sudo apt-get install mod-cgi'? | 20:28 |
| ikonia | meco search for it | 20:28 |
| meco | ok | 20:28 |
| sskalnik | nvm, looks like "aptitude download" is what I want | 20:28 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, you have to teach me sth now. My local ip is 192.168.122.119... IS that what you meant by router ip? I don't think so | 20:30 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: no, that's your machine's network address. | 20:31 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: are you on linux right now? | 20:31 |
| v-himanshu | yes | 20:31 |
| DinoMuffin | type in ifconfig | 20:31 |
| v-himanshu | and | 20:32 |
| DinoMuffin | tell me your netmask | 20:32 |
| DinoMuffin | or "Mask" | 20:32 |
| v-himanshu | Mask:255.255.255.0 | 20:33 |
| DinoMuffin | then your router address is likely 192.168.122.1 | 20:33 |
| Gentoo64 | what? | 20:33 |
| Gentoo64 | that netmask is normal | 20:33 |
| DinoMuffin | what | 20:33 |
| DinoMuffin | his current IP address is 192.168.122.119 | 20:34 |
| DinoMuffin | theerfor his network is 192.168.122.0 | 20:34 |
| v-himanshu | you mean last digit is 0/1 and starting three numbers are same as local ip? | 20:34 |
| meco | ikonia I don't have mod-cgi in my files. What else could that name be? | 20:34 |
| DinoMuffin | ok | 20:34 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: 192.168.122.* is your current network | 20:34 |
| bob___ | 192.168.122.0/24 | 20:34 |
| ikonia | meco: it maybe built into the webserver now without the need for a module | 20:35 |
| DinoMuffin | so you need to enter into your netconfig the static IP that you want for your local machine, the netmask, and the gateway | 20:35 |
| meco | ikonia: Then it's onto establishing where cgi-root is? | 20:35 |
| Aegir | Aegir (has quit) | 20:36 |
| meco | Or rahter, where the apache config file is located? | 20:36 |
| ikonia | meco: have you actually read how to set apache up on ubuntu ? | 20:36 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, and can I use _any_ static ip here...? | 20:37 |
| meco | ikonia: No, not at all. I haven't had any use for it before. | 20:37 |
| ikonia | meco: ok - you need to do that | 20:37 |
| ikonia | meco: https://help.ubuntu.com - look under the server section | 20:37 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: anything within 192.168.122.2-254 | 20:37 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, oh i see | 20:37 |
| hyppias | which filesystem should I use on a debian disk, so I can access the files from Windows? | 20:37 |
| hyppias | ubuntu that is | 20:38 |
| meco | ikonia: Wouldn't it be sufficient to do the things we've already set out to do? | 20:38 |
| DinoMuffin | hyppias: you're accessing it from ubuntu or windows? | 20:38 |
| Gentoo64 | hyppias, from a network or the actual disk? | 20:38 |
| hyppias | want to read them from Win7 | 20:38 |
| ikonia | meco: no, you're using a technology that you've never set up and have no idea how to setup, reading the basics of setting it up is a must | 20:38 |
| hyppias | actual disk | 20:38 |
| Gentoo64 | Hyperbyte, ext4 and use ext2read in read only mode on windows | 20:38 |
| ikonia | meco: if you don't even know where the config file is, then you need to read the very basics just to see it's layout at least | 20:38 |
| Gentoo64 | hyppias, ^ | 20:39 |
| useful__idiot | yeah httpd.conf is a beast ifyou dont read the documentation | 20:39 |
| meco | ikonia: OK, but I'm sure you or somebody knows there the config for apache is usually located, so it'd be nice to simply have that information. | 20:40 |
| useful__idiot | does ubuntu use the same a2ensite etc scripts for httpd from debian? | 20:40 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, so, tried to set up a static wireless connection, but it doesn't connected | 20:42 |
| MarioFinutz | a | 20:42 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: can you tell me what you entered for static IP, netmask, and gateway? | 20:42 |
| meco | ikonia: Now I know I have some kind of web server running, so I guess I needn't go to the section on installing apache2? Or do I? | 20:43 |
| v-himanshu | sure: static ip 192.168.122.5; netmask: 255.255.255.0; gateway: 192.168.122.1 | 20:43 |
| DinoMuffin | ok | 20:43 |
| ikonia | meco: I know exactly where it is, but if you want spoon feeding I am not your man, I'll spoon feed people who need it, not people who can't be bothered to read excellent documentation | 20:44 |
| _meberhart | there is a great guide for setting up LAMP on howtoforge | 20:44 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: what security protocols is your router running? | 20:44 |
| ikonia | meco: I would read the start to end setup of apache | 20:44 |
| ikonia | meco: make sure it matches what you've done | 20:44 |
| meco | ikonia: I understand... I'm kinda challenged in that respect, but I'll make an effort now. | 20:44 |
| v-himanshu | WPA2 | 20:44 |
| ikonia | meco: good for you | 20:45 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: and you're sure you've entered the passphrase correcly? | 20:45 |
| v-himanshu | yes | 20:45 |
| DinoMuffin | hm | 20:45 |
| v-himanshu | the lan used the same | 20:45 |
| v-himanshu | sorry | 20:45 |
| DinoMuffin | ? | 20:45 |
| v-himanshu | but yes, the password is same | 20:45 |
| meco | ikonia: Well, the funny thing is I haven't done anything to set up a web server, still I get response when browsing localhost. How can that be? | 20:45 |
| v-himanshu | i mean password is correct | 20:45 |
| ikonia | meco: then it's not setup, it's just default | 20:45 |
| meco | Ah... OK! | 20:46 |
| meco | Since thereæs apache2, is there also apache1 or apache plain? | 20:47 |
| ikonia | meco: apache 1 is dead | 20:47 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: sounds like it might be a driver issue | 20:47 |
| meco | ikonia: Why? What heppened? (not that it matters, just wondrin') | 20:47 |
| ikonia | meco: new better/updated version came out, no point maintaining the old | 20:48 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: have any other wifi computers been able to connect to that ap? | 20:48 |
| DinoMuffin | or any wifi device? | 20:48 |
| meco | ikonia: Sure, but I just figured that to be a bit strange since it came from the same place as the original... | 20:48 |
| v-himanshu | yes | 20:48 |
| DinoMuffin | oh but you said it didn't work at uni either, nevermind | 20:49 |
| v-himanshu | i have a mac and its working like a charm | 20:49 |
| v-himanshu | yeah | 20:49 |
| v-himanshu | you mean issue is with the driver: iwlagn | 20:49 |
| ikonia | meco it didn't | 20:49 |
| ikonia | meco: it's a new codebase | 20:49 |
| meco | ikonia: Also, I tried installing apache2 and it didn't since it's already installed, it says. But again, I didn't do it! Is that odd? Nobody else are likely to have been done it either... | 20:50 |
| * MarioFinutz care e roman | 20:50 | |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: well if it was working before and has just suddenly stopped wroking, it sounds like it's either a driver issue or the hardware is having issues | 20:50 |
| ikonia | meco you can only intall it once, so if you installed it earlier, it's already there | 20:51 |
| meco | ikonia: I didn't install it earlier, unless it installed itself automatically with ubuntu. | 20:51 |
| meco | btw I'm using oneiric | 20:52 |
| === Agin_ is now known as Agin | ||
| ikonia | meco: depends what profile you selected at install time, it can install it | 20:52 |
| pepejoe | hello there. I am using LiveUsb to boot. After a restart, it wont boot from the usb stick, unless I plug it out and in again. Any solutions to that? | 20:52 |
| DinoMuffin | v-himanshu: only other thing i can think of that could cause that is mac address filtering on your router | 20:53 |
| meco | ikonia: The installation guide doesn't say where apache2.conf us located so I'm using find to find out... | 20:53 |
| DinoMuffin | which is pointless, so it should be turned off anyways | 20:54 |
| v-himanshu | hmm | 20:54 |
| v-himanshu | so, do i have to re-install the driver? will that help | 20:54 |
| DinoMuffin | it may | 20:54 |
| v-himanshu | and by this i have to reinstall the driver iwlagn | 20:54 |
| meco | ikonia: I thought you were female because the -a suffix | 20:55 |
| ikonia | meco: don't worry | 20:55 |
| ikonia | meco: before you start looking for apache2.conf - keep reading and you'll see that's not what you want | 20:56 |
| meco | (I'm never worried. Sometimes I'm concerned. I learned today that using the word 'worry' subliminally influences you in an unwanted way...) | 20:57 |
| meco | ok.. | 20:57 |
| mibr001 | acer aspire 5520 running ubuntu 10.10 is overheating how do i raise min fan speed? | 20:57 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin: lsmod says that the driver is indeed loaded | 20:58 |
| v-himanshu | iwlagn 123060 0 | 20:58 |
| v-himanshu | iwlcore 125250 1 iwlagn | 20:58 |
| v-himanshu | DinoMuffin, i don't think either that there is mac address filtring on the router as i am using the wired connection from the same router | 21:00 |
| stealth_creation | I have a question about sudo, and the ufw firewall. What is the point in having a password, if it onnly ever asks for the password for the account wanting the privileges. I have read that they say this is a secure way of doing things, but if someone has the password for the account, then theoretically they can do what they want through the sudo command or setup whatever rules for the firewall, or am I wrong? Is there a better | 21:00 |
| stealth_creation | way of going about this? A way to set a password that isn't the same as your account? | 21:00 |
| acerimmer | stealth_creation: I've got an admin account for the sudo stuff and a regular user account for daily use. | 21:01 |
| v-himanshu | hmm... lunch time... brb and will look more into it. have to make it working by tomorrow morning | 21:01 |
| meco | ikonia: Now, I've read about all the different files amd dirs. I haven't found any actionable info there. Now I'm at the Basic Settings section. Let me know if I missed something, please! | 21:01 |
| stealth_creation | but I thought that your admin account was the root account, I had something similar when I was still running Windows. | 21:01 |
| Slart | stealth_creation: I think the idea is that you can define what a certain person/account can do.. that way they only have to input their own password to be able to do the "admin" stuff they have been pre-cleared for | 21:02 |
| floorlava | I've installed the HUD ppa. How do I invoke it? | 21:02 |
| ikonia | meco: ok, so what file contains the config for your site | 21:02 |
| mibr001 | can someone tell me how to raise min fan speed with ubuntu 10.10 on a acer aspire 5520 laptop? | 21:02 |
| stealth_creation | ok, thanks. | 21:02 |
| guntbert | floorlava: I guess you want to ask in #ubuntu+1 | 21:03 |
| Slart | stealth_creation: if you've got a root account (which is often the other way of doing things) it's all or nothing.. you either give complete control or nothing at all.. and you can't tell which account did what.. sudo keeps logs about who does what | 21:03 |
| stealth_creation | have you tried cleaning the fan? | 21:03 |
| meco | ikonia: I believe that to be /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 21:03 |
| floorlava | guntbert, thanks. | 21:03 |
| ikonia | meco: no, you've not read the documentation | 21:03 |
| ikonia | meco: that is for global configs, not each site | 21:03 |
| guntbert | !sudo | stealth_creation time for a little reading :) | 21:03 |
| ubottu | stealth_creation time for a little reading :): sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 21:03 |
| stealth_creation | I was thinking that it logged what users did what when the sudo command was run | 21:03 |
| Slart | stealth_creation: the "enter your password" is just to keep people walking past your unlocked computer from doing bad things | 21:03 |
| guntbert | stealth_creation: that too | 21:04 |
| stealth_creation | thanks for the reading. waiting to run into work, so this will help out. | 21:04 |

| lwizardl | hello | 21:09 |
| mibr001 | hi | 21:09 |
| lwizardl | How do i install the new firefox from the tar file on ubuntu 10.04 lts | 21:09 |
| drdw | Hiya folks. | 21:09 |
| mcphail | mibr001: is your BIOS up to date? | 21:10 |
| rexor | lwizardl, just download form mozzila website | 21:10 |
| acerimmer | !source|lwizard | 21:10 |
| ubottu | lwizard: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 21:10 |
| drdw | Question about 11.10 installation... during the installation process, what text-based utilities exist for partitioning? I didn't see the usual fdisk , gdisk or parted... | 21:10 |
| rexor | lwizardl, and unpack | 21:10 |
| meco | lwizardl: sudo gksu file, but I'm guessing... | 21:10 |
| lwizardl | rexbron_, did that but it is a .bz.tar file and I don't see a update or configure in the folder | 21:10 |
| osmosis | any way to fix unity so that the application menus on the top bar are not all screwed up on my second monitor? | 21:11 |
| drdw | I'm trying to track down incredibly slow IO during installation. Can't even complete the installation process it's takings o long. This is on 3TB drives. | 21:11 |
| osmosis | I cant even access the application bar in a usable way unless I move the app over to my first monitor. | 21:11 |
| mcphail | lwizardl: there is a firefox ppa for LTS which makes keeping up-to-date easier | 21:11 |
| drdw | Wanted to start and make sure secrots were aligned and all that fun stuff, but don't seem to be ablve to find "fdisk" | 21:12 |
| lwizardl | mcphail, well firefox 10 was just released today so I wan't sure if the ubuntu branded one would already be updated or not | 21:12 |
| zykotick9 | drdw: i don't think fdisk supports drives that large | 21:12 |
| mcphail | lwizardl: usually comes in a day or so. Much less pain than keeping up with the tarballs | 21:13 |
| Slart | drdw: I think you can create your partitions before running the installation.. and just tell the installer what you want to use each partition for | 21:13 |
| drdw | zykotick9: i was fairly sure that newer versions of disk would support it.. regardless, the tool isn't there. | 21:13 |
| Slart | drdw: that way you can run any live cd you want and use that to do aligment and whatever | 21:13 |
| lwizardl | mcphail, yeah but I may come across another application later without apt-get features and still need to know how to do it | 21:13 |
| drdw | Slart: So, is that a way of saying that the Ubuntu 11.10 server installer does not have any tools for performing such tasks? | 21:13 |
| drdw | zykotick9: Just trying to see what th eoptions are... =) | 21:14 |
| Slart | drdw: at the moment I'm resizing a 2TB drive to get it aligned correctly.. only 7 hours to go | 21:14 |
| drdw | Slart: Ouch! | 21:14 |
| Trevor69420 | 7 hours... that sux | 21:14 |
| drdw | Slart: So going through that pain, did you have bad performance that prompted you to do that? | 21:15 |
| Slart | drdw: I'm saying that I don't know what the installer uses to partition drives and I don't know if you can get to a shell during the install procedure | 21:15 |
| mcphail | lwizardl: that is not a road you want to go down if you can avoid it. Each installation process is bespoke - learning one will not help you with the others. Always use the package manager when possible | 21:15 |
| Slart | drdw: well.. I'm not entirely sure.. but it was kind of slow, yes. Hopefully it will get a bit better | 21:15 |
| drdw | Slart: ah, gotcha. the shell remains, alt+f2. | 21:15 |
| lwizardl | where does ubuntu store the firefox folder ? | 21:15 |
| drdw | This is orders of magnitude slower than expectations... like.. 100KB / sec, instead of MB. | 21:15 |
| drdw | Same problem on both the onboard contrtoller and the raid card. | 21:16 |
| drdw | yeargh. | 21:16 |
| Slart | drdw: in normal ubuntu, yes.. CTRL+ALT+F[1-6] will get you a shell.. not sure if that is available during the install though | 21:16 |
| mibr001 | i'm trying to use what it says here http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/fancontrol.8.html to change minpwm to a value that'll keep it cool and quiet also i'd like to lower max temp | 21:16 |
| Slart | drdw: you need the CTRL key if you want to do it from gnome | 21:16 |
| acerimmer | lwizardl: /home .mozilla | 21:16 |
| drdw | Slart: That's correct. I was stating that it does work during the installer, which for servers is text based.. no CTRL necessary. | 21:16 |
| psychoshield | how do i allow a longer login time on ssh? | 21:17 |
| Slart | drdw: ah.. my bad then | 21:17 |
| mcphail | lwizardl: it doesn't store the folder anywhere. It installs the binary in /usr/bin/ etc... | 21:17 |
| Trevor69420 | psychoshield i think there's a timeout option in the ssh config | 21:17 |
| lwizardl | acerimmer, looks like mine is not there but instead /usr/lib/firefox-9.0.1 | 21:17 |
| drdw | Slart: No worries. I'll go find some newish live CD to partition with I guess. | 21:17 |
| drdw | Slart: ty for the perspective. | 21:17 |
| K350 | are you guys aware of any openbox irc channel? | 21:17 |
| Slart | drdw: you're welcome | 21:17 |

| psychoshield | ya cause ill walk away come back and i get kicked out :( | 21:26 |
| acerimmer | shaneo: you need to edit your software sources | 21:26 |
| Slart | shaneo: ehm.. updated from i386 to amd64 ? I didn't think that was possible.. I'm pretty sure a reinstall is the recommended way to go | 21:26 |
| psychoshield | so just add ServerAlive? | 21:26 |
| zeshoem | how do I disable the firewall in Ubuntu 11.10? | 21:26 |
| psychoshield | ServerAliveInterval 60 | 21:26 |
| acerimmer | shaneo: slart is right - reinstall is best | 21:26 |
| Slart | psychoshield: I haven't tried it myself so I wouldn't know.. but it's worth a try | 21:27 |
| zykotick9 | shaneo: you can't really upgrade from i386 to amd64 without reinstalling. The new multiarch feature will show :i386 and :amd64 for many packages regardless of what you do. | 21:28 |

| psychoshield | dinomuffin the # ServerAliveInterval 100 didnt work | 22:48 |
| dinomuffin | psychoshield: is the server you're connecting to your own server? | 22:49 |
| psychoshield | ya | 22:49 |
| dinomuffin | hm | 22:49 |
| psychoshield | its hosted at kimsurf | 22:49 |
| meme | hi all | 22:49 |
| remz | wondering if anyone can help me -pm- | 22:49 |
| meme | somebody want to help me? | 22:49 |
| dinomuffin | and you restart ssh after applying the new value, right? | 22:50 |
| psychoshield | ya but it cant find the keys | 22:50 |
| dinomuffin | the rsa keys? | 22:50 |
| psychoshield | ya | 22:51 |
| psychoshield | Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key same with the other | 22:52 |
| lelouch | ActionParsnip: so there are no general rule for downgrage ?!! | 22:52 |
| ActionParsnip | remz: ask in the channel, more eyes = more solutions | 22:52 |
| psychoshield | start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 31933: Operation not permitted | 22:52 |
| ActionParsnip | lelouch: you will need to remove the package then reinstall it | 22:52 |
| zykotick9 | !ask | meme | 22:52 |
| ubottu | meme: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 22:52 |
| dinomuffin | what command did you run to restart it? | 22:53 |
| psychoshield | forgot to do sudo however with sudo it suggested to do restart ssh | 22:53 |
| psychoshield | so i did | 22:53 |
| psychoshield | ssh start/running, process 11288 | 22:53 |
| psychoshield | is what i get | 22:53 |
| mcphail | lelouch: you can ask apt-get to install a particular package version | 22:53 |
| meme | ok.i just want to know if i can access wireless if i running ubuntu from usb? | 22:53 |
| dinomuffin | sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart | 22:53 |
| dinomuffin | right ? | 22:53 |
| zykotick9 | psychoshield: are you editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config - the d is daemon, or server | 22:54 |
| psychoshield | i did ssh_config | 22:54 |
| mcphail | lelouch: "A specific version of a package can be selected for installation by following the package name with an equals and the version of the package to select." | 22:54 |
| zykotick9 | dinomuffin: using init.d to restart services is deprecated in some ways. "sudo service foo restart" would be better | 22:54 |
| dinomuffin | sure | 22:54 |
| dinomuffin | either works | 22:54 |
| psychoshield | does the ServerAliveInterval go in ssh or sshd_config | 22:55 |
| mibr001 | haillo | 22:56 |
| dinomuffin | it goes in ssh_config on your local pc | 22:56 |
| psychoshield | but im trying to set it server wide | 22:56 |
| mibr001 | ... | 22:57 |
| dinomuffin | then use ClientAliveInterval in the sshd_config for your server | 22:57 |
| psychoshield | set that at 100 too? | 22:57 |
| dinomuffin | sure | 22:57 |
| psychoshield | just paste ClientAliveInterva at the bottom since its not in there? | 22:57 |
| dinomuffin | that should be fine | 22:58 |
| psychoshield | k rebooted ssh time to wait | 22:58 |
| dinomuffin | psychoshield: it should work. I thought you were doing it on your local machine, and not your server | 22:59 |
| psychoshield | nope was doing it on my server... thought i mentioned it | 22:59 |

| ActionParsnip | Lineage2: you could have also found that yourself as I made ubottu give yo the link to the appdb | 23:16 |
| xSmurf | (basically a live cd type of install but I want to pre install some things) | 23:16 |
| DinoMuffin | xSmurf: you mean, basically, configuring your own liveCD? | 23:17 |
| xSmurf | DinoMuffin: yes and installing it as a partition | 23:17 |
| DinoMuffin | why | 23:17 |
| hydrox24 | xSmurf: have a look at "chroot" and chrooting, that may be able to help you in customizing a live cd | 23:17 |
| meco | mcphail: Well, I'm not running multiple websites. All I want is to have the smokeping script work... | 23:18 |
| xSmurf | yeah ok I found the help n the guides thx | 23:18 |
| xSmurf | not if only unetbootin (osx) would produce a booting drive ;p | 23:18 |
| frogzoo | ActionParsnip: I'm not hopeful, but I'll check it out, thx! | 23:19 |
| hydrox24 | xSmurf: you want to boot a drive from mac or just create a bootable drive IN OSX | 23:19 |
| mcphail | meco: no one is going to hold your hand through apache2 setup here. It is offtopic. I suggest you start at the link I posted to learn about the debian/ubuntu apache configuration setup and go from there | 23:19 |
| ActionParsnip | xSmurf: http://maketecheasier.com/reconstructor-creating-your-own-ubuntu-distribution/2008/07/05 | 23:19 |

| hydrox24 | xSmurf: oh. | 23:19 |

| joeoshawa | i use debian unfortunately is there a web site i can use to get the code | 23:26 |
| meco | DinoMuffin: Because it's intermittent. | 23:26 |
| joeoshawa | i want to look at it for learning purposes | 23:26 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: mkdir ~/stuff; cd ~/stuff; apt-get source nano for example | 23:27 |
| meco | I want to ping them for 24 hours and then have the graphs to show what it looks like. | 23:27 |
| joeoshawa | would the debian software center be the same code in debian unstable | 23:27 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: debian isn't supported here | 23:27 |
| mcphail | joeoshawa: just browse the ubuntu repos as you would for debian | 23:27 |
| ActionParsnip | JoeSomebody: no idea, I dont use debian | 23:27 |
| Gentoo64 | meco, they probably wont care | 23:27 |
| mcphail | joeoshawa: don't expect it to build on debian though - there may be ubuntu-isms | 23:28 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: you could ping and grep / awk the outpt then graph that | 23:28 |
| === checkbit151 is now known as checkbit | ||
| Gentoo64 | meco, and also how could you prove that its nothing on your side affecting it? | 23:28 |
| joeoshawa | lol i know i am trying to learn computer programming so i was curious for information | 23:28 |
| Gentoo64 | doubt youll get far | 23:28 |
| DinoMuffin | you could probably just set it up to ping forever and pipe the output to a file | 23:29 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: ping -c 4 www.google.com | awk '{print $8}' example | 23:29 |
| DinoMuffin | then sort it to find the times when it's low | 23:29 |
| meco | Gentoo64: Hmm... I don't know... | 23:29 |
| mcphail | joeoshawa: it might be better to start with a simpler application... | 23:30 |
| joeoshawa | and i realize debian is not supported here but i can't very well go in the debian room saying hey how can i get the ubuntu software center code to compare | 23:30 |
| meco | ActionParsnip: But I don't want to ping google. I only want to ping my ISP | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: then change the host, obviously.... | 23:30 |
| psychoshield | so im trying to use deluge and write to /var im in the www-data group but its still failing to write... why is it? | 23:30 |
| joeoshawa | meco ask for a server ip from your isp | 23:30 |
| mcphail | joeoshawa: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~software-store-developers/software-center/trunk/files | 23:30 |
| zykotick9 | joeoshawa: "software-center" is available on debian | 23:30 |
| joeoshawa | thanks mcphail | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: yous DNS servers will probably be your ISPs. | 23:31 |
| meco | joeoshawa: I don't have any power to do that. This is a municipally owned pc. | 23:31 |
| Gentoo64 | meco, just saying, if you're trying to get something out of it it's probably a waste of time. my previous isp was adament that it was a virus in my case, although i dnt even use windows :s | 23:31 |
| joeoshawa | ActionParsnip, not necessarily some isp such as rogers and bell use third party dns servers | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | joeoshawa: its a good first check though :) | 23:32 |
| meco | Gentoo64: Nah... I can't be that pessimistic from the outset... Not all ISPs will be unreasonable on principle... | 23:32 |
| joeoshawa | there are linux viruses | 23:32 |
| joeoshawa | but that is laughable | 23:32 |
| joeoshawa | ActionParsnip, true | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: or their email pop server | 23:33 |
| joeoshawa | ahh its in python | 23:34 |
| joeoshawa | interesting | 23:34 |
| joeoshawa | ActionParsnip, that is probably his best bet | 23:35 |
| joeoshawa | and with rogers they would do something about it | 23:36 |
| jwh1981 | How is everyone today? | 23:36 |
| joeoshawa | customer service oriented | 23:36 |
| meco | Anyway, Gentoo64 said something, that it might be a problem with this computer. That's kinda hard to understand. But it could be since it's a very troubled machine... I'm just not understanding enough about how it could be a problem here when programs run fine and suddenly ping replies cease completely for 30 seconds or two minutes. | 23:36 |
| joeoshawa | meco ping from another similar machine to the same ip | 23:36 |
| meco | joeoshawa: I only have access to this machine. | 23:37 |
| joeoshawa | got a lap top? | 23:37 |
| meco | Nope | 23:37 |
| joeoshawa | any lap top | 23:37 |
| joeoshawa | damn | 23:37 |
| joeoshawa | borrow one? | 23:37 |
| meco | Only this desktop | 23:37 |
| CoolHandLuke | /join #mongoDB | 23:37 |

| joeoshawa | sorry dude | 23:38 |

| KC-45 | lol | 23:38 |
| KC-45 | sorry meco jus had to say that... | 23:38 |
| meco | Well, it's how it is. | 23:38 |
| joeoshawa | only way i can think of to be sure | 23:38 |
| joeoshawa | other then reinstalling | 23:38 |
| joeoshawa | and then if its hardware it won't make a difference | 23:38 |
| meco | KC-45: It's just that it limits alternative options.. or precludes even | 23:39 |
| joeoshawa | although that would tell you if its a hardware or software problem | 23:39 |
| joeoshawa | but if its a net connection it won't tell you anything | 23:39 |
| KC-45 | mmmm | 23:40 |

| meco | Oops... is Firefox 10 in oneiric? I said yes, but I have only 9.0.1 | 23:48 |
| TimRiker | meco, thx. | 23:48 |
| ActionParsnip | meco: it can be via ppa | 23:48 |
| TimRiker | Glowball, probably. the ppa sounds like the least intrusive option till the upgrade comes. | 23:48 |
| Calinou | manual install, TimRiker | 23:48 |
| meco | Yes, I haven't checked that | 23:48 |
| ActionParsnip | its 10 in Precise | 23:48 |
| Calinou | there are precompiled versions installed | 23:48 |
| Calinou | ActionParsnip: precise is unstable :P | 23:49 |

| Calinou | "not available for natty - WE LOVE UNITY!" | 23:49 |
| Calinou | :P | 23:49 |
| Glowball | TimRiker: So, what PPA? Afaik, the Firefox stable ppa is only being updated for Lucid and Maverick, because newer versions will get updates from the usual repositories | 23:49 |
| TimRiker | Glowball, see my previous post | 23:49 |
| Glowball | Oh, yes, that'll probably work :) | 23:50 |
| Glowball | New beta user, yay! | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | michael_: the one you want to check DMA is enabled on | 23:50 |
| Calinou | Glowball: s/beta/unity | 23:50 |
| Glowball | Calinou: I meant Firefox beta :P | 23:50 |
| TimRiker | Glowball, installing firefox-10.0~b6+build1-0ubuntu0.11.04.1~mfn1 | 23:51 |
| Glowball | As you were having problems with Firebug: if you decide to switch to Aurora instead of beta, you can use the new Firebug with cool features: http://blog.getfirebug.com/2012/01/27/firebug-1-10a2/ | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Glowball: there is a nightly ppa with firefox 12 or something | 23:51 |
| Glowball | But I probably shouldn't force alpha software upon anywone :P | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Glowball: could use chromium daily and ditch firefox ::D | 23:51 |
| TimRiker | what's Aurora? refresh my memory. | 23:52 |
| Glowball | ActionParsnip: Why would he? Firefox is awesome ^^ | 23:52 |
| frantic | Hey, i have something i want to install on my laptop, its an ISO file, what can i use for a virtual drive installation program? | 23:52 |
| TimRiker | alright, stop the trolling. yes I use chromium too. :) | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Glowball: I think its utter garbage | 23:52 |
| Glowball | TimRiker: It's a Firefox development channel | 23:52 |
| TimRiker | Glowball, ah. | 23:52 |
| Glowball | ActionParsnip: Then you are thinking wrong :) | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Glowball: chromium uses significantly fewer resources here and runs a LOT faster | 23:53 |
| Glowball | Chromium is using a lot more resources here without any significant speed win, while having a completely unusable UI | 23:54 |
| Glowball | I guess the resource usage depends on the system | 23:54 |
| TimRiker | ok, can we stop the browser debate? use what you like. | 23:54 |
| ActionParsnip | oh absolutely :) | 23:54 |
| fredo | h | 23:55 |
| Glowball | Yes, that's true :) It was more of a reaction to his "Ditch Firefox and switch to Chromium" | 23:55 |
