[02:43] <jdmcancer> Hello
[02:44] <jdmcancer> Is anyone here to help me?
[02:44] <holstein> !ask | jdmcancer

[02:45] <jdmcancer> OK
[02:48] <jdmcancer> My problem is with my monitor and I think it is software related and not hardware because I turned on my computer and my monitor was working and then I installed todays updates and restarted the computer and it was working until it finished booting and then it displayed a message saying out of range
[02:49] <jdmcancer> I'm on my computer hooked up to a different monitor now
[02:49] <holstein> maybe... try booting an older kernel.. the last one that worked
[02:50] <jdmcancer> I did and got the same result
[02:50] <holstein> set the resolution right now to something more generic and try plugging the other monitor back in
[02:52] <jdmcancer> I went into the monitor settings and hit reset and still the same results. Is there a way for someone to check the settings from linux regarding the monitor?
[02:53] <holstein> jdmcancer: you need to check what the monitor supports
[02:53] <holstein> jdmcancer: try setting to something more generic, and plug the monitor in... dont just hit 'reset'.. set to 800x600
[02:53] <holstein> something that will work everywhere
[02:54] <holstein> i see those messages when the card is sending information that the monitor cant deal with
[02:54] <holstein> you could have windows, and see that message just as well
[02:54] <jdmcancer> I'm not very technical with caomputers, what should I do as far as the settings?
[02:57] <jdmcancer> The monitor is a couple of years old but I do not believe it is hardware because it was working before I installed the updates and rebooted the computer
[03:01] <holstein> jdmcancer: its a software setting correct
[03:02] <holstein> i would literally just set it to exactly what i suggested... 800x600.. something generic
[03:03] <jdmcancer> OK thanks
[13:08] <JDMcQ1> Question: 10.04LTS won't let me add a Gateway through GUI. Keeps resetting it to 0.0.0.0 What's with that?
[13:13] <sattu94> JDMcQ1: press enter, after you have entered it.
[13:17] <JDMcQ1> sattu94: I think I'm losing it! That worked! duh! But for some reason that machine still won't give me internet access. Other machines work no problem (11.10)
[13:18] <sattu94> JDMcQ1: try disabling and re-enabling the connection.
[13:18] <sattu94> Click on it in the network connections drop down menu.
[13:20] <geirha> How does «route -n» look?
[13:26] <JDMcQ1> No luck, This is a laptop and has both wireless and hardwired. Both seem OK If I disconnect eth0 wlan0 picks right up but without Internet can ping at will
[13:28] <jemoh> hey I have a little problem. Am writing pygtk code using vim and here it is :
[13:28] <jemoh> #!/usr/bin/env/ python
[13:28] <jemoh> import pygtk
[13:28] <jemoh> pygtk.require('2.0')
[13:28] <jemoh> import gtk
[13:28] <jemoh> class Base:
[13:28] <jemoh>     def destrpy(self,widget,data=none):
[13:28] <jemoh>         gtk.main_quit()
[13:28] <jemoh>     def __init__(self):
[13:28] <jemoh>         self.window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
[13:28] <jemoh>         self.window.show()
[13:28] <jemoh>         self.window.connect("destroy", self.destroy)
[13:28] <jemoh> i
[13:28] <jemoh>     def main(self):
[13:28] <jemoh>         gtk.main()
[13:28] <jemoh> if __name__ == "__main__"
[13:28] <jemoh>      base = Base()
[13:28] <jemoh>      base.main()
[13:28] <jemoh> Now when I try to execute it using chmod+x window.py
[13:29] <jemoh> This is what I get:
[13:29] <jemoh> jemoh@Hiuhu:~$ ./window.py
[13:29] <jemoh> bash: ./window.py: /usr/bin/env/: bad interpreter: Not a directory
[13:30] <jemoh> Someone pliz tell me why am getting this error
[13:53] <Snicksie> jemoh, you have a space between #!/usr/bin/env and 'python', I guess you need to remove that space? :)
[13:55] <jemoh> Av tried it but I still get the same error
[13:55] <jemoh> What else could be the problem ?
[14:08] <holstein> jemoh: i would look at the "not a directory" error
[14:10] <jemoh> sorry but how can look in to it ?
[14:11] <holstein> jemoh: that error says to me you have something reffering to a directory that doesnt exist
[14:11] <holstein> is there a /usr/bin/env ?
[14:13] <holstein> maybe try #python
[14:13] <philinux> holstein: Yes env is a file in /usr/bin
[14:13] <jemoh> No there isn't but I did exactly what a certain pygtk tutorial video suggested and on the video, the instructors code ran okay
[14:14] <holstein> jemoh: why dont you pastebin what you pasted here earlier before philinux got here
[14:15] <holstein> !paste | jemoh

[22:41] <lsht> is it ok?
[22:42] <JoseeAntonioR> Yes :)
[22:42] <JoseeAntonioR> This seems to be a common problem we've had with Intel chipsets. Maybe this is the same, let's try with some steps...
[22:42] <lsht> my default resolution should be 1600x900 how to make it?
[22:43] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: One second, please.
[22:43] <JoseeAntonioR> May I have your monitor's brand and moedl?
[22:44] <lsht> the integrated monitor of laptop dell xps 17  701x
[22:44] <JoseeAntonioR> Oh, yes, of course. I forgot about it.
[22:44] <JoseeAntonioR> Just give me one second while I find some values for it.
[22:45] <lsht> ok, when I go to monitor - unrecognised or something like this....resolution 800x 600
[22:45] <JoseeAntonioR> Yes, same problem I had some months ago :)
[22:46] <JoseeAntonioR> Let's issue some commands while I find the values.
[22:46] <JoseeAntonioR> Please, in the Terminal, type "sudo X -configure :1"
[22:46] <lsht> and when i tried this with drivers... now comes first message, that somethin is wthout driver and than
[22:47] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Please, issue the command I gave you before. Tell me when it's finished, don't give me the output.
[22:47] <lsht> ok,
[22:47] <lsht> comes closing log?
[22:48] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Yes. Now, let's issue another command.
[22:48] <JoseeAntonioR> gksu gedit xorg.conf.new
[22:48] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: The command in the line above this one should open a Text Editor
[22:49] <JoseeAntonioR> We will be working on it, so don't close it.
[22:49] <lsht> yes
[22:49] <lsht> ok
[22:50] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Ok. Once it has opened, search for the Monitor section. There are 3 monitor sections, one which is Monitor0, right?
[22:50] <lsht> ok
[22:51] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: I mean, what I told you is right? Please check for it
[22:51] <lsht> Section "Monitor" 	Identifier   "Monitor0" 	VendorName   "Monitor Vendor" 	ModelName    "Monitor Model"
[22:52] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Please, don't paste things here. Just answer the questions, because this channel is publicly logged.
[22:52] <lsht> ok
[22:53] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Ok, after Monitor Model, there should be an EndSection line. Before that section, add this two lines:
[22:53] <JoseeAntonioR> HorizSync 67.5 - 137.2
[22:53] <JoseeAntonioR> VertRefresh 60.0 - 120.0
[22:54] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Add them just before EndSection and after ModelName
[22:56] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Did you add them?
[22:57] <lsht> moment
[22:57] <lsht> new row for every line?
[22:58] <lsht> yes
[22:58] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Yes, a new row for every line.
[22:58] <lsht> ok
[22:58] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Once you're finished, please save the file, and if you want me to check it put it into a pastebin.

[23:02] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Do you have the link for the paste?
[23:02] <matt_> well everytime i try to install it i cant because it wont run. when i finish installing it just brings me to a purple screen with options like run linux. recovery mode and when i clikc run it just goes to a black screen
[23:02] <lsht> i used paste.ubunto.com how can i give you securely the url?
[23:02] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Just give it to me. That is public, and doesn't mean any risk for your PC.
[23:02] <JoseeAntonioR> We can't access your PC directly.
[23:03] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: Are you in Ubuntu right now?
[23:03] <lsht> ?
[23:03] <lsht> http://paste.ubuntu.com/913824/
[23:03] <matt_> i cant even get on. im on my desktop and its my laptop and i have tried to install it twicxe, both with the same problem
[23:03] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Ok. Please, save and close the file.
[23:03] <lsht> done
[23:03] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: Have you MD5 checked the ISO you downloaded?
[23:04] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Ok. Now, I need you to issue this command: "sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[23:04] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: That will move the file to its correct position
[23:04] <matt_> i dont think so, i got the disc from my friend who has ubuntu and he just gave me the disk he used
[23:05] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: I think you should try downloading an ISO, then you can burn it into a CD or make a LiveUSB with it. www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[23:05] <lsht> i dont know if i typed it wright can i do it one more time?
[23:05] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Yes.
[23:05] <matt_> ive done that on the usb the first time and it didnt work
[23:05] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: Did you MD5 the ISO? Maybe you got a corrupted iso.
[23:06] <lsht> no such file or directory
[23:06] <lsht> ?
[23:06] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[23:06] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Then you moved it correctly.
[23:06] <matt_> my friend installed linux yesterday and i used the same disc he does
[23:06] <lsht> ok
[23:06] <matt_> actually, when i try to installe like 10 minutes in i get a error saying something about /deb/sev or something like that
[23:06] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: You can press the up key to check the last commands you issued, in order. If you want to, you can check you typed it right before we move on.
[23:07] <JoseeAntonioR> matt_: Do you know what is the version of that Ubuntu CD?
[23:07] <lsht> ok
[23:07] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Was it OK?
[23:08] <lsht> lsht: Then you moved it correctly.
[23:09] <lsht> yes there is no such file or directory if i get it wright
[23:09] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Just wanted to check, because you might have moved it with another name
[23:09] <lsht> should be positive answer
[23:09] <JoseeAntonioR> Just to ckeck
[23:09] <lsht> i copied the command from chat
[23:10] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: If you copied it, then it's right. Now, please close the Terminal.
[23:10] <lsht> closed
[23:11] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Please copy this command into a paper: "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[23:12] <lsht> is it two ii -s after X?
[23:12] <lsht> or two ll-s
[23:12] <Unit193> X one one.
[23:12] <lsht> ok
[23:13] <Unit193> What are you trying to do, JoseeAntonioR?
[23:13] <JoseeAntonioR> Unit193: That generates a new xorg.conf with the HorizSync and VertRefresh values of the monitor, to get resolution.
[23:14] <JoseeAntonioR> Unit193: If at the end the command doesn't work, then the person can use the command I last gave to remove the xorg.conf and get back to "normal"
[23:14] <lsht> i saw a theme about a similar configuration  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10406422
[23:14] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Please, reboot the PC. If it works, then you will be able to change the resolution. If not, and you cannot see anything, boot into text mode, and issue that command. I will be waiting for you here
[23:15] <lsht> ok,
[23:15] <lsht> rebooting
[23:17] <JoseeAntonioR> Unit193: That was the first problem I solved, had it with my old PC.
[23:19] <lsht> hey again
[23:19] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Hello! Did it work?
[23:19] <lsht> i have the same resolution
[23:19] <lsht> as before
[23:20] <JoseeAntonioR> Aren't you able to change it?
[23:20] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: ^^
[23:20] <lsht> You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[23:21] <JoseeAntonioR> Ok, then open a Terminal and run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" without quotes, and then reboot again. That should make it
[23:22] <lsht> i run the command
[23:22] <lsht> now restart?
[23:23] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Yep :)
[23:30] <lsht> hey
[23:30] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Hello! How is it?
[23:30] <lsht> first i get error message

[23:31] <lsht> Failed to initialize the GLX module;
[23:31] <lsht> please
[23:31] <lsht> check your x
[23:32] <lsht> aaa
[23:32] <lsht> i had to write it somewhere first
[23:34] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: So, you figured out how to solve the last issue?
[23:35] <lsht> which one exactly? I have had only one issue - resolution?
[23:37] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: You said you had to write it somewhere fist
[23:40] <lsht> moment
[23:40] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Ok.
[23:40] <lsht> ok, first comes this
[23:40] <lsht> http://paste.ubuntu.com/913861/
[23:41] <lsht> than I give ok
[23:41] <lsht> and than comes to 5 options, and I choose continue low resolution
[23:41] <lsht> and everithing is as before
[23:42] <lsht> other options were repair and some other things
[23:42] <lsht> repair step by step
[23:42] <lsht> two reboots two times one and the same
[23:42] <JoseeAntonioR> I think you should try with Repair, and if that doesn't work then remove the file with the command I gave you.
[23:42] <JoseeAntonioR> I would suggest removing the file right now.
[23:43] <lsht> In the last paste is about the driver
[23:43] <lsht> how can I upgrade to the 295 driver on Nvidia page?
[23:43] <lsht> I downloaded the run file, and than?
[23:44] <JoseeAntonioR> Do you have the link to the webpage so I can check it out?
[23:44] <lsht> this driver is not in Synaptic?
[23:44] <lsht> the link was in the theme in forum i mentioned
[23:44] <lsht> moment
[23:45] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Well, you should open the Update Manager to see if there are any updates.
[23:45] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Have you checked if there are any additional drivers to be installed?
[23:45] <lsht> http://www.nvidia.de/object/linux-display-amd64-295.33-driver-de.html
[23:45] <lsht> how
[23:45] <lsht> ?
[23:46] <JoseeAntonioR> Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[23:46] <lsht> 10
[23:47] <lsht> 10.04 LTS
[23:47] <lsht>  i just check in Synaptic but the latest ist 185
[23:48] <lsht> driver
[23:48] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: It is because you are running Ubuntu 10.04.
[23:48] <lsht> ow can i manualy download driver from nvidia page and than install it
[23:48] <lsht> ?
[23:49] <lsht> should i install another version?
[23:49] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Well, you will not be able to install it because of the Kernel.
[23:49] <lsht> ouch
[23:49] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: What I should recommend is installing another Ubuntu version, maybe 10.10, then 11.04, and finally 11.10
[23:50] <lsht> i have the installation near my original windows 7
[23:51] <lsht> what should i do exactly?
[23:51] <lsht> not to damage everything?
[23:51] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Do you have many important documents in Ubuntu?
[23:51] <lsht> i mean beside
[23:51] <lsht> no
[23:51] <lsht> nothing
[23:52] <lsht> important some films etc.
[23:52] <lsht> the installation is from 1 week
[23:53] <JoseeAntonioR> lsht: Well, then I recommend doing a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10, so then you can upgrade to 12.04 LTS.
[23:53] <lsht> The problem should be not to damage tthe Windows
[23:53] <JoseeAntonioR> Doing a fresh install means to format just the Ubuntu partition. You should select it manually. It won't damage Windows in any way
[23:53] <lsht> that is beside the  linux
[23:54] <lsht> is 12.04 LTS already available?
