| bobweaver | time out | 00:08 |
| pleia2 | try: ssh -v user@address | 00:09 |
| pleia2 | the -v will give you verbose output to see what's going on | 00:09 |
| bobweaver | thanks ! | 00:09 |

| bobweaver | sorry hostname and routers dns name | 00:16 |
| pleia2 | depends on your setup | 00:16 |

| absolutionx | Quick question but is there a way to incorporate gnome2 into 11.10 instead of 3? | 04:01 |
| holstein | absolutionx: not easily | 04:02 |
| holstein | i say, try XFCE... mate.. cinammon.. in that order | 04:02 |
| holstein | xubuntu = ubuntu + XFCE | 04:02 |
| absolutionx | Thanks for the input holstein. Another question more along the lines of repos. Is it possible to have ubuntu 11.04 use the 11.10 repos? Or is it not backwards-compatible? | 04:04 |
| holstein | well, not really | 04:05 |
| holstein | most stuff is just in both | 04:05 |
| holstein | just different versions | 04:05 |
| holstein | you wouldnt want to use them like that | 04:05 |
| absolutionx | I was trying to figure out how to get the latest versions of different software through apt | 04:06 |
| absolutionx | PPA's have been useful | 04:06 |
| holstein | ppa's are the way to go... or build them yourself | 04:07 |
| absolutionx | Pretty much that involves downloading the source -> sudo make -> sudo make install? | 04:09 |
| Unit193 | Depends on tha package. | 04:09 |
| Unit193 | You'll also need any dev libs. | 04:10 |
| holstein | then you are on your own though | 04:11 |
| Unit193 | Yep, readmes and wikis. | 04:13 |

| akarsh | i wanted to start off with contributing to open source development. since i am a active user of ubuntu i thought Ubuntu itself will be a good place to start. i wanted some advice on where to start. i have gone through many sites on ubuntu websites for beginning development. but i need some solid idea where i can take off. i would like to work on coding. | 11:47 |
| lukjad | To run a command every time the PC starts in Ubuntu 11.10, where is that option? I vaguely remember it in older versions but I can't seem to find it in 11.10 | 19:31 |
| holstein | lukjad: can you find startup? or sessions? or startup sessions? | 19:32 |
| lukjad | Not in System settings | 19:32 |
| holstein | this is unity?.. try just typing that in somwhere as a search... im trying to load up unity i VM | 19:33 |
| lukjad | holstein No, I am using GNOME | 19:33 |
| lukjad | Can't stand unity | 19:34 |
| holstein | you can try http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=263528 | 19:35 |

| holstein | lukjad: open a terminal and try running.. "gnome-session-properties" ...this might be a GUI for it | 19:37 |
| lukjad | Thanks holstein ! | 19:40 |
| holstein | lukjad: gnome-session-properties is there? | 19:41 |
| lukjad | holstein It is, and I've added it. | 19:42 |
| lukjad | Thank you! | 19:42 |
| holstein | lukjad: i'll make a note of that.. that makes life a little easier :) | 19:42 |
| lukjad | Indeed | 19:42 |
| lukjad | holstein Though, be forewarned I installed GNOME | 19:42 |
| lukjad | So, I don't know about generic ubuntu | 19:43 |
| pointydrip | Hello I have an alsa problem, sound is not working certain applications (firefox, chrome, jukebox) | 19:43 |
| holstein | lukjad: i dont use gnome3 either, but i want to be educated about how to provide support for it | 19:43 |
| pointydrip | Sound is working for gnome, but nothing else...can anyone help? | 19:44 |
| holstein | pointydrip: is this something that broke? if so how? or is this a fresh install?... do you see your sound device in the terminal if you run lspci? or aplay -l ? | 19:44 |
| pointydrip | holstein - this is what I did (in order): | 19:44 |
| pointydrip | Had a problem with audacity (resolved), uninstalled reinstalled different versions of audacity, uninstalled/reinstalled jack, ardour and hydrogen, found an external work around for audacity bug, recorded a bunch of stuff last night...was listenting to youtube/grooveshark no problem, turn on the computer this morning and firefox, chrome and jukebox = no sound, but there is sound from gnome (button and whatnot) | 19:48 |
| pointydrip | audacity also still works normally | 19:48 |
| holstein | i would *not* expect the pulse to JACK stuff to be stable yet. if you are running JACK, i would stop it | 19:48 |
| holstein | you dont *need* jack for what you are doing anyways | 19:49 |
| pointydrip | jack is not in the picture... | 19:49 |
| holstein | pointydrip: cool.. you just mentioned reinstalling it, and that can kill pulse, and do funky stuff right now | 19:49 |
| holstein | i install pavucontrol | 19:49 |
| holstein | i would sudo apt-get install pavucontrol, and reference it, and open alsamixer and check to make sure all is as it should be (and trust no labels) | 19:50 |
| pointydrip | okay processing... | 19:51 |
| holstein | depending on how you have H2 configured, for example, it ill try and start JACK when you launch it | 19:51 |
| pointydrip | jack works fine on alsa...just non-audio apps without anything else running | 19:52 |
| pointydrip | going for a reboot... | 19:53 |
| holstein | sure.. im just saying... you try and launch H2 without JACK running, and if its configured to use JACK, it will try and start JACK | 19:53 |
| holstein | then, you have pulse suspended or broken or crashed maybe in some way | 19:54 |
| holstein | i personally dont use my audio production machine that way... i dont use it for web/pulseaudio | 19:54 |
| holstein | not that you shouldnt as well... im just stating how challenging it can be, and what i see as possible issues | 19:55 |
| pointydrip | found the problem, but not the solution: I realized I had my usb mic plugged in (blue yeti) unplugged reboot= everything works fine...except when I plug it in hot it kills sound for apps again AND the mic does not work in audacity, reboot with plugged in mic works, but no sound, reboot unplugged apps have sound again | 20:05 |
| pointydrip | I did not have this problem before, I could plug/unplug hot and it would not affect anything | 20:06 |
| holstein | i would use pavucontrol to choose what does what on what devices | 20:07 |
| pointydrip | yep... that did it, for some reason it had the mic as analog device | 20:10 |
| pointydrip | FYI: the usb mic does not show up as an input device in the puvacontrol when selected as a digital duplex device in the configuration (as the blue yeti is a duplex device), however it still shows up in output and everything functions normally under this setting no matter what it says... | 20:25 |
| pointydrip | thanks for the help...again | 20:25 |
| trailblazerz11 | Hi i am currently on wubi and need more space. Would migrating to a partition be the best solution? | 21:51 |
| stlsaint | trailblazerz11: no, the best solution would be to install | 21:53 |
| stlsaint | trailblazerz11: trying to use fstab or manually mount a drive for long time use is very unstable | 21:53 |
| Unit193 | Wubi isn't very easy to support, and it's not the best option. | 21:55 |
| trailblazerz11 | Yes. I am trying to not use wubi. So create a partition and install ubuntu fresh on it? Then move my wubi files | 21:56 |
| trailblazerz11 | Correct? | 21:57 |
| stlsaint | trailblazerz11: im not sure how to safely move wubi files over to a actual install | 22:18 |
| phillw | trailblazerz11: have a read of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519354 | 22:20 |
| trailblazerz11 | Yeah ive been following tjat | 22:28 |
| trailblazerz11 | But gparted isnt letting me expand my extension partition | 22:28 |
| stlsaint | be back later | 22:30 |
| trailblazerz11 | From ubuntu can i make a partition ext4? | 23:43 |
| === bladernr_ is now known as bladernr_afk | ||
| Unit193 | You can reformat a non-active partition using gparted, yes. | 23:49 |
| trailblazerz11 | Gparted erros when i select ext4 was wondering if i could do it from terminal | 23:52 |
| holstein | trailblazerz11: what error? | 23:52 |
| trailblazerz11 | Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while creating root dir | 23:52 |
| holstein | i would want to test that hard drive | 23:53 |
| trailblazerz11 | It created the swap partition fine. | 23:54 |
| trailblazerz11 | Would the following code be correct' sudo mkfs.ext4 -j -O extent -L backupdisk /dev/sdc1' | 23:54 |
| holstein | it? | 23:54 |
| holstein | gparted?... | 23:54 |
| trailblazerz11 | Yes | 23:55 |
| holstein | trailblazerz11: i would test that drive... gparted has *never* failed to format an unmounted partition or drive for me | 23:55 |
| holstein | try the CLI though.. just be sure you got the path correct | 23:55 |
| Unit193 | Have had better luck live though. | 23:55 |
| trailblazerz11 | Mk. After attempting ex54 becomes | 23:56 |
| holstein | yup... i almost never use it otherwise.. i'll use it on a USB stick or something.. otherwise, i just use a LIVE CD | 23:57 |
| trailblazerz11 | Unrecognizable . Which gparts can format but not make ext4 | 23:57 |
| trailblazerz11 | Yeah using live usb | 23:57 |
| holstein | trailblazerz11: you can format as ext2 ? | 23:58 |
| trailblazerz11 | Didnt try. Should i? | 23:58 |
| holstein | trailblazerz11: you say "gparts can format but not make ext4" | 23:58 |
| holstein | im trying to decide what that means to me... does that mean you can format as some other type? | 23:58 |
| holstein | anyways, if you havent tested the drive, i would... it wont hurt anything, and it shouldnt take much over an hour or so | 23:59 |
| trailblazerz11 | Opps i meant gparts can delete the unrecognizble partition | 23:59 |
| holstein | trailblazerz11: what unrecognizable partition? | 23:59 |
