LirthI was having trouble with using my headset (Razer Megalodon) in 7.1 mode. It will only work for 5.1 in the settings and I can't even find the 7.1 option. Any idea how I'd fix that?

monadisthey guys... is there anyway to retreive the command log, which exists inside a virtual machine? I had a windows ubuntu partition. Windows is not booting up for some reason, but I can access all windows files from ubuntu and back them up. However, I need to retreive the command history from an ubuntu virtual machine that I used to run in windows... how is that possible if i have access to the windows file system from the ubuntu partition00:16

jribfor the googlers who also want to know how to include a file in ~/.Xresources, the answer is: read the RESOURCES section in « man X » to discover the syntax of include lines is (similar to C): # include "FILENAME"00:39
Monotokoikonia, -c is an invalid option, are you sure you weren't thinking of BSD?00:41
ikoniaMonotoko: su -c00:41
ikoniaMonotoko: http://www.gratisoft.us/sudo/sudo.man.html sudo -c works fine00:42
ikoniaMonotoko: also look at sudo -s00:43
ikoniaMonotoko: and sudo -u00:43

ikoniaMonotoko: any combination of those options should allow you to do what you want as flexible as you want00:43
jribikonia, Monotoko: in 11.10 my sudo does not recognize -c (according to man page), but "su -c COMMAND USER" will do what you need and is what you should do for your use-case imo.  You could if you prefer, do "sudo -u USER COMMAND"00:44

DaekdroomCheck the Sound menu01:44
gimbalDaekdroom: obsolte ... ok. Not sure what that means :}01:44
DaekdroomThe concept of a rhythmbox control applet is not necessary anymore. It was replaced by the sound menu. And it uses tray system, which is not used by default anymore (only a few select apps that need it).01:45

CAZ_aubilegt, load up a live cd, backup your data and just reinstall? well thst the simplest "solution"06:18
bilegtCAZ_au: is it that much complicated?06:20
CAZ_auThere might be other solutions but youve screwed up the system and it might be buggy even if you do get it to boot. so grab an Ubuntu CD, boot it up.. backup your data and just reinstall ubuntu.Thats what i would do.06:21

DanDareElive_user57_en, wich unity ?06:35
TaironeHey I have a question06:36
MonkeyDustDanDare  is your screen similar to this, with the bar on the left http://www.ubuntu.com/tour/en/06:37
DanDareMonkeyDust, yeah.06:37
MonkeyDustDanDare  that's Unity06:37
Artemis3!it js21206:38
DanDareMonkeyDust, understand. Thanks06:38
DanDareSo where im able to setup compiz ?06:38
Elive_user57_enDanDare: By Ubuntu 11.04 the default desktop enviroment is unity. And because unity uses compiz to draw its panels, you can't really disable. You can choose to run without unity during login, or, use another D.E.06:38
DanDareElive_user57_en, im trying to use xfce. Where to stop the automatic login screen? I remember it was "gdm" in the past06:39
Artemis3DanDare, could be lightdm06:40
DanDareArtemis3, ok, thanks06:40
Elive_user57_enDanDare i believe gdm have being replaced by..., ahh miss the name now. Anyway. let me check how you can disable the autologin at first.06:41

dcyguys sorry for bugging you, but i have a slight problem on Ubuntu 11.10 x64 - changed motherboard + cpu and i'm now experiencing hard lockups upon booting (ie: nothing works, not even the hardware reset button)08:10
oceanidand I am wondering if a 200 GB root and 500GB home will good or it is better to set a 10GB usr/local too08:10
dcyoceanid: tbh 200 GB / sounds rather large ... got a special need for it?08:11
MonkeyDust200 GB root?08:11
CAZ_auhardware reset button not working, sounds like theres a problem with the motherboard08:12
dcycaz_au: memtest worked flawlessly for 8+ hours08:12
dcycaz_au: something b0rks it .. cpu is i5-2320, mobo is z6808:12
dcycaz_au: if i go recovery mode i can work rather normally (start up networking, start up bind) as long as i don't resume booting ....08:13
dcytried kernels from 2.6.38 over 3.0.0-17 to 3.2.0 ... same thing on all of them08:13
CAZ_auyouve changed a lot of hardware, im no expert but if i change that much hardware i usually reinstall completly.08:13

oceanidok08:15
oceaniddo you think that 200GB is not suitable for root?08:15
dcycaz_au: well. technically just the cpu+mobo are changed. the rest is the same. (okay NIC changed but that's no biggy). / is LUKS encrypted and mounted from an md array ... but everything works flawlessly up until some normal services are starting up. suspecting udevd, but can't find anything concrete. and in regards to reinstalls ... it's linux, not windows ^08:15
dcyoceanid: you need to tell us more what you want to run on your box. if it's going to be a desktop, then 200 GB / is way too large.08:16
gnugroceanidZ: 20 to 25 GIB for /root is enough08:16
oceanidmy old system had 115 GB and it is already full08:16
MonkeyDustor less, I have 15 GB root08:16
wickedwiccanwhy is it you can't install pcsx and zsnes at the same time they both run but you can't have both at same time08:16
dcyoceanid: did you have a separate /home partition though?08:17

=== Guest49041 is now known as Gurty
dcyoceanid: well, that explains it. your user data was filling up /. you planning to use it as a desktop?08:17
oceanidon my old system I had a 115 root, 190 mirror and 2 swap08:17
dcyoceanid: 190 mirror of what?08:17
MonkeyDust2 swap?08:18
oceanidroot and mirror are about 90% used08:18
CAZ_audcy: yeah but if i took my harddrive out and took it to anther pc i wouldnt exactly expect it to run flawlessly. Try booting a live cd and see if it runs then. if it does i say just reinstall. Its easy enough to backup packages aswell saving the download.08:18
oceanid2GB swap08:18
oceanidyes I have a ci7 desktop08:18
dcycaz_au: frankly. i would expect it to boot up normally... hoped for a dev of sorts to point my nose in the right direction... tried the old noacpi, noapic, nolapic spiel but without luck ... and yes. barring a platform restriction (x86 vs x86_64 or similar) you can actually change hard drives without too much of a hassle.08:19
oceanidI had created a partition named mirror so that install some special program on it08:20
ThorneHow do give the input text as transliterated another Language from English?,  and use a shortcut key?\08:20

richardlxc1qub: hello08:24
oceanidas I told you, on my old pc, I had installed in a directory named "model" in my mirror partition08:24
dcyif you don't plan to fill up your /home and will be using the box for a while do a 300G /home, pick a reasonable swap size and stick the rest for / - if you'll be using it mostly for the computations08:24
oceanidand I installed all dependency packages on a directory named OPT in mirror partition08:25
dcywell mate - you answered it for yourself here08:25
dcyeither do a 25 G /, 150 G /opt and the rest for /home + swap. or just forget everything and make a small swap and put the rest into / .... not the best way, but if you can't decide on a partitioning scheme would work out best for you.08:26

KingkatariHow do i get apache2 to allow for php index files? right now when i try to load the page it just wants to download a PHTML file09:44
dcyDirectoryIndex directive iirc09:45
bekksdcy: Wrong.09:45
bekksThat generates an index.html showing the folder content.09:45
bekksFirst, you have to enable php at all.09:46
dcywrong. DirectoryIndex index.php index.html would prefer index.php if it existed beforehand. but yes, in regards to what he said after that addtype php is missing09:46
Kingkatariso where can i enable php at09:47
bekks! php09:48
ubottuPHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. A command-line only version can be installed in Ubuntu with the "php5-cli" package. See also !lamp for integrated server PHP. The Ubuntu server PHP5 guide is found at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/php5.html09:48
dcyand in case if somebody was following - the lockup was being caused by the pci tuner (cx20xxx based) that either was not seated correctly or doesn't work properly on my mobo. removed the tuner - everything works. thanks to the people who gave hints :)09:50

MorsHi all - have a problem09:54
MorsRecently upgrade to oneiric, my wireless password got wiped out for some reason once the router d/c'd for a minute09:54
MonkeyDustMors  password or WEP/WPA key?09:55
MorsNow the hoe owner isn't here so I can't get the password09:55
Morssorry09:55
MorsWEP/WPA09:55
hydrox24is it WEP? if it is I would recommend cracking it, should be legal.09:55
MorsNeed the wireless... any way to retrieve fro logs or something09:55
* Mors checks - WAP/WPA209:56

hydrox24ok, well your stuffed on the cracking front, no way your getting into that easily.09:57
Morsso if there's a cracker that can take patterns fror keys ...09:57
Mors:P09:57
MorsEh09:57
MorsAny way I could get the key from old logs?09:58
hydrox24do you remember the pattern somewhat? because you could generate a wordlist. But this is getting into complex stuff now.09:58
dcywell i'd speculate that if after an upgrade a config file was replaced then a backup copy exists - along with the key09:58
MorsWell... I remember it's all alphabets, all caps09:58
comgenMors: if you upgraded and the org config was replaced there should be a backup copy config09:58
Mors:d09:59
MorsWhere can I find that?09:59
hydrox24Mors: are there other devices that connect, because you need to intercept a handshake between the router and a connected deivice before you can start cracking the key.09:59
MorsCurrently, don't think so... house is empty so... :P10:00
dcymors: heretic question - have a windows device that you can boot up to connect to it (with a saved pass?). would be trivial to retrieve then10:01
MorsNo :(10:01
MorsI was planing to connect my phone but haven't gotten around to iy10:01

robin0800Mors: you can usually find the pass-code in the router setup usually you can also view it10:03
hydrox24is there a button for wifi you can press on the router to allow open connections for a short time?10:03
MorsNo physical access to router10:03
hydrox24try http://code.google.com/p/reaver-wps/ for cracking it if it isn't a totally modern router.10:03

schnuffleAntonis: your problem isnot a special repo its that youmixed i386 and amd64 repos12:12
Antonisoh12:12
curiousxAntonis: bad idea, only you have to remove those who ouputs "Err GPG... some gpg program"12:12
schnuffleAntonis: as you stated you're running amd64,drop all the i386 repos12:12
Antonisschnuffle, yes but how do I know what repos are i386?12:13
schnuffleAntonis: Paste your sources.list and Ill have a look at it,and paste uname -r as well and all files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d12:14
yossarian_Mhh, it seems to work somehow. But it's really slow with reading the data.12:14
schnuffleAntonis: you can use pastebinit for that12:14
schnuffle!pastebinit12:15
ubottupastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com12:15
curiousxye, and also the, sudo apt-get update12:15
Antonisschnuffle, ok12:15
curiousxi didn't see it =(12:15
Antonisuname -r | pastebinit => http://paste.ubuntu.com/918750/12:15
schnuffleAntonis: so your kernel is i386 not amd6412:16
Antonisbut my OS is amd64 :\12:16
AntonisI downloaded and installed ubuntu 64bit12:16

schnuffleAntonis: what have you done? 100 additional repos? okay 50 because they are all double but it clear that you'llrun into problems sooner or later.Are you sure all that repos are necessary?12:18
Antonisschnuffle, not 100.. :\12:19

blithenI was wondering if it's possible to install ubuntu through windows onto unallocated space.12:28
blithenNot using wubi.12:28
schnufflecrazyandi86: mknod can create youa device with the mjaor/minor numbers12:28
crazyandi86schnuffle: my device is created like /dev/ttyUSBX, and i always want to get /dev/ttyUSB012:29
blithenOr is it just the best option to install it normally.12:29
schnufflecrazyandi86:  thats done by udev and you'll need to create a udev rule12:29
crazyandi86schnuffle: okay, i feared that..., can a device be renamed manually?12:30
crazyandi86schnuffle: for example from /dev/ttyUSB1 to /dev/ttyUSB0?12:30
MrPopinjayIf I make a difference to /etc/security/limits.conf do I need to re-log-in for the changes to take effect?12:31

curiousxChaoticanarchyX: what is the version driver?13:07

alexitaschnuffle:  done13:08
ChaoticanarchyXim not sure what the version driver is, is there anyway to find out in terminal?13:08
alexitaschnuffle:  now?13:08
schnufflealexita:  it should show the ips of your networkcards13:09
curiousxChaoticanarchyX: in the ati's panel control13:09

ChaoticanarchyXi think i did, im running the 64 bit version of ubuntu also. 11.1013:10

alexitaschnuffle:  take a look http://pastebin.com/JuqheN9t13:12
schnufflealexita: that means your PC has 192.168.1.3 as address13:13
ChaoticanarchyXim downloading it again13:13
alexitaschnuffle:  i'm behind my router, maybe i should connetct my PC directly to the router that the Internet Provider gave me and run the command again ?13:13
alexitaschnuffle: 192.168.1.3 is not a public IP is just my LAN address13:13
MonkeyDustalexita  ifconfig shows the local ip address, not the public13:14
ChaoticanarchyXhow do you install .run packages properly?13:14
curiousxok13:14
schnufflealexita: no,just ask the correct queston. Your router should always get a public IP13:14
alexitaMonkeyDust: how can i check if i have a public IP address ? thanks13:14

scorpion19abel: and again the PRINTER which IP address have?14:09
mneptokscorpion19: the printer is shared by one of the computers. it does not need its own IP14:10

ChaoticanarchyXhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/918891/14:18
mneptokChaoticanarchyX: OK, so right now you are using the Free "radeon" driver for your AMD graphics. i do the same. which apps are not working correctly?14:19
ChaoticanarchyXmnetok fusion is one of them, certain games trying to run in wine that ran with an Nvidia 64 mb card that stopped working when i put this card and another 32 mb ATI video card in14:21
mneptokChaoticanarchyX: the "radeon" driver does not have support for 3D acceleration.14:21
ChaoticanarchyXmnetok i get that but fusion is an emulator for sega14:22
mneptokChaoticanarchyX: so ... your choice. games and such, or a stable system. because installing that proprietary AMD driver is not without issues of its own.14:22
mneptokChaoticanarchyX: my guess is that Fusion uses OpenGL14:22
ChaoticanarchyXmnetok i dont doubt it has bugs of it own, but even youtube videos dont even play/show up right14:22
mneptokChaoticanarchyX: so you are prepared to manually compile and re-install that driver every time you see that you are getting a kernel update?14:23

oCeanjean_brat: use sudo with a command, like  sudo apt-get install packagename15:01
jean_bratand ./amd...........................15:01
compdocjean_brat, an easy way to do that is type:  sudo nautilus15:02
compdocthen use nautilus to change permissions15:02
ChaoticanarchyXcuriousx Its still saying this: sudo: aticonfig: command not found15:02
oCeancompdoc: jean_brat for graphical applications, use gksudo, not sudo15:02

dlentz*crickets chirp17:20
tje2Any suggestions as to a replacement for KAudioCreator?    I've got Kubuntu, but I've installed most/all of the GTK libs, so it can be a GNOME util if it's good stuff.17:20

Xtremeand second, it is always asking for password. is there computer administrator and normal user groups in linux too as in windows?17:32
scutit seems it detects my previously attached usb17:32
DJFiremandlentz, what about upgrading to the Radeon 7690M? would that still be bad?17:32
bobweaverXtreme,  there is what is called a wallet in kde that holds some password17:32
dlentzDJFireman, i thought that the 7690 was in addition to the igp, but maybe i read it wrong17:33
Xtremebobweaver: how to access it? and how to give my current user root previlegis?17:33
bobweaverXtreme,  it is used for system resources  like connecting to wireless17:33
bobweaverXtreme,  type in wallet into the search bar17:34
jamjamubuntu logo shows up on installation but hangs showing random pixels17:34
hylianXtreme, ubuntu is designed so that you never use, or are, root.17:34
auronandace!sudo | Xtreme17:34
ubottuXtreme: 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/fixsudo17:34
Xtremebobweaver: wallet, no items found ;(17:35
bobweavertry password stuff like that Xtreme17:35
DJFiremandlentz, I apologize for this, but I am really lost. Ive never worried about hybrid graphics before and I wouldnt know the difference between them. Would you suggest just to forget this laptop and look for something else?17:35
bobweaverin the menu ^^ ?17:35
hylianXtreme, wallet is used to hold passwords for programs and websites. if you are doing something that requires root priveleges, i.e. installing new software, you will be required to give your password.17:35
Xtremebobweaver: nope, not there17:36
Xtremehylian: thanks..so there is no option to disable it?17:36
auronandaceXtreme: you don't want to disable it17:36
bobweaveryou dont want to17:36
dlentzDJFireman, the problem is that a lot of systems come with hybrid graphics these days, except ones with just intel graphics17:37
Xtremeactually i want to.. coz i am the only one using linux..everyone else windows17:37
auronandaceXtreme: disabling it would be the equivalent of saying to everyone: "do what you like on my machine"17:37
bobweaver!root > Xtreme17:37
ubottuXtreme, please see my private message17:37
sylow-Hi, still running hardy, would it be safe to install libc6 ?17:38
hylianXtreme, in an average day of use you will probably not even have to use the password. I am set to auto login, no password there, and the only time i need to enter it is if i step away from the machine for a while, then it locks itself. you can even tell it not to do that. you will find that unless your installing or updating software, you won't be needing it.17:39

mirakbeeksm maybe you didn't uderstood my question17:52
mirakthe goal with syncying is getting files modifed on A , on B, without any manual operation17:52
hylianmirak, in bekks defense, i also tryed to figure out that question... it was uniquely worded.17:53
bekksmirak: You have to manual do something. Only iCloud does that kind of sync operation you want.17:53
mirakhylian: the fact the maybe you don't know also possibly contribute to that17:53

hylianiamnoss, wow, never heard of anyone doing that before... i'd have to research it.18:16
AcidRain2012i cant believe yall just put this aside like a windows user and ignore it until it happens to you18:16
Maria_nvm18:16
ANubMaria: does ifconfig command shows any interfaces..?18:17
jribAcidRain2012: what exploit...?18:17
iamnossI did it using the script from the ubuntu forum, Hey, simple question here. The Windows Loader option is missing from GRUB.18:17

jamjamhi, why does 11.10..12.04 install hang on my radeon hd 5570? though listed as supported hardware.. ?18:17
Xtremehylian: auronandace: both sudo su and sudo -i are asking for ghost password only. and then with msg incidance will be reported.. anyways, i will just relogin18:17

AcidRain2012all i want to know. is where does ubuntu tell us that these exploits have been patched?18:17
jribAcidRain2012: link to ubuntu bug tracker?18:17

hylianAcidRain2012, if i understand what you are asking, you are asking for the date a exploit was patched?18:18

iamnossNevermind guys, I just had to type sudo update-grub and it found it!18:19

bekksAcidRain2012: Then "test" it, and search for a related bug in the bug tracker before accusing people of not caring about it please :)18:19
auronandaceAcidRain2012: if it should have been reported have you searched through the bug tracker to find it?18:19

sontekAny of you guys know anything about the evtouch or nextwindow modules? I need those but not seeing them in apt18:29
bekksXtreme: And you should NOT use the root account like you are doing it, for security reasons. It has a disabled password by default.18:29
mbeierlI have a laptop where the HD died.  I'm trying to get a persistent USB install working, but neither unetbootin nor usb-creator-gtk seem to be doing the trick. I've downloaded lubuntu 11.10 (just to keep it light and avoid swap), but unetbootin just gives me a live cd with no persistence, and usb-creator just leaves the boot at a flashing cursor and no grub menu18:29
Xtremebekks: okay, i wil redisable it.. and it is opened.. now should i add ghost name to it?18:30

Xenethmbeierl: I have had issue with persistance.  How I got around that is by partitioning the USB into 2 drives, OS on one, use the second for storage.  That would allow you to save what's needed until you get HDD back up.18:39

Xtremethanks guys18:39
mbeierlXeneth: hmm.  But how to you tell the OS to persist onto the second?  When I put the image on it using unetbootin, it's a non-persistent install, even though I tell it to reserve space for persistance\18:40

CharminTheMooseWell, I guess what I'm asking is, is that considering that ubuntu-desktop is a dependancyy of all the gnome stuff, and it says 'it's needed for upgrading', does that mean if I upgrade to 11.10 without that metapackage installed, it borks the system possibly?18:56

MonkeyDustuser82  is this helpful? http://tips.webdesign10.com/how-to-bulk-rename-files-in-linux-in-the-terminal19:27
user82MonkeyDust, i am looking into your suggestions...thanks for the link19:27
urbancommandombeierl that would be difficult to do it all in one line? dont you have to verify if the name isalready been used?19:28

mbeierlurbancommando: true.  It'd be a long line.  I might end up pastebin'ing a script19:28
urbancommandoyeah19:29
mister2where do you go to adjust brightness?19:29
MonkeyDustmister2  system settings > screen19:29
urbancommandoclose your eye lid in increments19:30
mister2monkeydust i'm in gnome classic, not unity19:30
MonkeyDustmister2  me too19:30
mister2helpful urbancommando19:30
urbancommandoahah19:30
mister2monkeydust i don't see anything called 'screen' or 'system settings'19:30
MonkeyDustmister2  top right19:30
urbancommandominster2 if your using a laptop you can use your function key19:31
mister2there's something called 'system' which has 'preferences' and 'administration'19:31
mister2urbancommando if you'd seen my original question the fn keys aren't doing as much as i need them too ;)19:31
urbancommandoahh19:31
mister2monkeydust there's something called 'system' which has 'preferences' and 'administration'19:32
MonkeyDustmister2  what ubuntu version and window manager?19:32
mister2gnome 2.32.1 and 11.0419:32
MonkeyDustah, that's not ubuntu classic, thats gnome 219:33
mister2mmmmmmk19:33
mister2well when i log in the setting i have is 'ubuntu classic'19:33
mister2so idk what to tell ya19:33
auronandaceMonkeyDust: classic is gnome2 in 11.0419:34
mister2actually, classic (no effects)19:34
auronandace!classic19:34
ubottuThe default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". For 11.10, see !notunity19:34
MonkeyDustauronandace  mister2 yeah yeah, confusion ;)19:34

bakedpotatomy posts *are* visible to you guys, right?19:38
mister2yes bakedpotato19:38
bakedpotatocool.19:38
urbancommandominster2 the only way to configure it the way you want is to install  compizconfig19:39
mister2what was it you needed help with?19:39
LirthMy computer has started freezing randomly and the only way I have found that can fix it is through restarting. Any idea why this is and how to fix it?19:39

urbancommandohttp://askubuntu.com/questions/34979/how-to-change-the-shortcut-to-adjust-brightness19:39
mbeierluser82: but, because it's reading /dev/random, it's not the fastest thing in the word.19:39
bakedpotatoi'm trying to find out if it's my encrypted home directory that's getting unmounted when i log out.19:39
mister2urbancommando; again, why do i need to change the shortcut key?19:39
mister2bakedpotato have you looked at the mount command with it? i have no idea how you woul19:40
mbeierluser82: Sorry - you need to add the actual "mv" command to the script.  Right now it just echos out what it's going to do19:40
=== martins is now known as Guest72696
mister2urbancommando; why do i need to change the shortcut key? i want to adjust the brightness beyond what i have now. if compiz will do that then i'll install it19:41
=== Guest72696 is now known as Rafaeel

urbancommandominster2 you can keep the same short cut keys you are just going to use a different software to adjust your brightness19:41
=== pejjj is now known as grezev
mister2urbancommando; but it has the capacity to change the settings i want to change? i have terrible internet so this will be a prolonged download i assume, as i recall compiz being fairly large19:41
fisixinternets is excellent19:42
mister2oh, it's tiny19:42
urbancommandocheck out link i gave you the user is having the same issue as you are having19:42
mister2fisix yes, it is, but not when you get throttled to 10>19:42
bakedpotatoi can only tell that it's trying when i log out of one instance on the actual machine and it says that it's not unmounting it since there's still a user logged in (me on ssh)19:42
mister2urbancommando; uh, no they aren't. they change the key to use...19:43
mister2bakedpotato; isn't ubuntu set up to automatically unmount encrypted filesystems on logout?19:43
Kingkatariis there anyway that apache is blocking access to my webserver that i dont know about because my pc firewall and router firewall are down and my ISP is not blocking the port but i still can not access the page from the web19:43
mister2kingkatari; you have port forwarding in place?19:44
bekksKingkatari: You cant access your own public IP from inside your local lan.19:44
bakedpotatocould be, i dunno, but wanna know :D i guess i should put my minecraft server somewhere other than my home directory...19:44
mister2bakedpotato; usually servers are best stored elsewhere...19:45
^MikeHow can I add parameters to the grub2 boot command that gets selected by default?19:45
mister2urbancommando; compiz doesn't directly change the settings, it only changes the BUTTONS. not what i'm looking for, i want to change the setting.19:45
Kingkatariwhat do you mean bekks19:45
bakedpotatomister2: thanks.19:46
user82mbeierl, thank you!19:46
mister2^mike can't you do that by directly editing the file in your grub folder?19:46
bekksKingkatari: That you cant test it from your own PC.19:46
mister2^mike as root, i mean (or with sudo, whatever)19:46
mister2bakedpotato np19:47
^Mikemister2: Yes, but it'll be overwritten when that file gets regenerated. There's another config file where you can add stuff to be permanent, I can't remember where19:47
mbeierluser82: you're welcome.  Not sure how long it'll take though.  I need to think if there's a better way to get a random number...19:47
mister2^mike ah, i was not aware of this so i have no idea19:47

`prixonI'm using 11.10 and I had 11.04 on another partition (on the same HD as the 11.10). I deleted this filesystem partition and formatted it to ntfs because I coudln't access/write to that partition, but unfortunately that didn't help. now I still have a partition that I can't write to. I tried using some advices from forums and sites, but to no avail. what can I do? I tried something like "sudo chown -R username:username /yourPartition" and22:16
`prixon "sudo chmod -R 755 /yourPartition" but nothing changes. I still have no permission to write to this empty partition. the diskutility app says that the usage of this partition is Filesystem. could this be the problem? how can I change the permissions? loading nautilus with sudo also didn't help22:16
scientesdrounse, but also, distros change alot if this was a long time ago, i got pushed from debian to ubuntu because of the lack of a debian installable livecd, but now it has one22:17

eertreso i am on a 750 GB HDD, i have 3 partitions C - 350 gb D - 200 gb E - 150 gb, on C i have windows 7 ... i dont need anything from this harddisk, i want to format it all, and want to install ubuntu ... how do i format from ubuntu ?! can i do it when i install ubuntu!? when i click on ERASE WINDOWS from install ubuntu setup i dont see any option for format ... will ubuntu install keep my22:55
eertrepartitioning or do i need to make it again?22:55
ActionParsnipexcalibour: ok, edit those in turn and you will see networks and you can uncomment / edit a line to allow your network to connect. The default is to only allow localhost22:55
eph3meralitaylor57, do you use XFCE?22:55
itaylor57eph3meral, yes22:55
eph3meralcool, I love it :)22:56
ruumhey guys do know how to download all the image files from a URL folder -- example wget http://somedomain.com/images/ to a local directory?22:56
ActionParsnipeertre: do you want to dual boot?22:56
excalibourActionParsnip>> still no file under http, somewhere else?22:56
eertreno, i dony want anything from the harddisk22:56
eertrejust a new fresh installed ubuntu copy22:56
eph3meralI was soooo pissed at both Unity and GNOME322:56
ActionParsnipexcalibour: did you edit the file, then restart the app?22:56
* scientes likes gnome-shell22:56
ruumdoes anyone know?22:57
excalibourActionParsnip there s no file to edit, sorry, with ls i get a blank prompt under http22:57
ActionParsnipeertre: the installer will make the partitions for you, if you set to use the whole drive it will delete Windows and install Ubuntu for you22:57
aJacom?22:57
eertreActionParsnip, how does the installer know how i want the partition to be?22:57
ActionParsnipexcalibour: the command outputted some file names, edit those with nano to enable the local subnet22:57
beaglebr1athHow do you execute a command and have it execute from another /dev/pts/# ?  i.e. execute clear from /dev/pts/2 but executes on /dev/pts/322:58
excalibourisnt it weird that şs doesnt show files?22:58
excalibour*ls22:58
eertreyou really dont want to pay atention to my problem, because if u read carefuly u will understand what i am saying22:58
ActionParsnipeertre: it will make a partition for swap and the rest for / (includes all folders), if you want to setup your own partitions then choose manual partitioning (something else) and set it up how you wish22:58
eph3meralitaylor57, XFCE is like what GNOME2 should have been :)22:58
eph3meralso, I have been having some weird theme issues with XFCE22:59
eertrewhere or when can i do that22:59
ActionParsnipeertre: its part of the installation, read the screen22:59
eph3meralsome programs have the "regular" "nice" GTK theme that I would expect, and some have this really old GTK1.x looking square theme22:59
gr33n7007hbeaglebr1ath, clear > /dev/pts/*22:59
eph3merallooks almost like tcl/tk but not quite as ugly22:59
eertreno, u dont want to listen to me, serious ... can i private you?22:59
eph3meralspecifically rhythmbox was looking weird23:00
ActionParsnipexcalibour: sudo nano /usr/share/vlc/lua/http/.hosts23:00
eertrewhen u choose ERASE WINDOWS, i have no option to format or partitioning harddisk23:00
eph3meralI installed Clearwaite (i think is the name) which has a GTK3 component, but now synaptic looks ugly! lol XD23:00
eph3meralanyone know what's up with this theme wonkiness?23:00
ActionParsnipeertre: YES It will set a default set of partitions of it's own choosing. Like I already said23:00
excalibourActionParsnip>> i vim ed to /etc/vlc/http/.hosts23:00
excalibourtryuing your alternative now ActionParsnip23:01
blzeph3meral, you should probably check with whoever made the theme.  Also, you still haven't really told us what's wrong.23:01
eph3meraland or, how would I check, using the command line, what GTK theme(s) are currently active for each version23:01
ActionParsnipeertre: so I have no idea were you are getting that I am not reading your replies23:01
xtremoxhi there23:01
eertreso when i choose ERASE WINDOWS, it will FORMAT and RE-PARTITION my harddisk on his own choose?23:01
eph3meralblz, uhh, sorry, I thought I did - some programs have the "regular" "nice" GTK theme that I would expect, and some have this really old GTK1.x looking square theme23:01
stevenmeyerI used to have a program sort of like lanmap however it worked off of showing you a real-time 2d display of selectable protocols. The program would map out a network and show usage. I think I had it in some distro a few years back but cant remember for the life of me what it was called. Any help would be appreciated.23:02
ActionParsnipeertre: yes, it will determine the partitioning for you and format them appropriately23:02
eph3meralthe implication being that what is "wrong" is that I don't want any apps to have the old GTK1.x looking square theme when I know they should look like the nice/latest theme23:02
ActionParsnipeertre: like I ALREADY said23:02
beaglebr1athgr33n7007h: thanks, but clear doesn't accept any other arguments.  I've got the redirect output from one pts to another figured out.  but now I'd like to have a command execute from a different /dev/pts. :)23:02
blzeph3meral, A screenshot would help.23:02
ActionParsnipeertre: ALL partitions will be removed.23:02
eertreActionParsnip, i understand, and it will partition based on what?  on a 750 gb how it will look like ?!23:02
ActionParsnipeertre: so WAS I reading what youo wrote?23:02
gr33n7007hstevenmeyer, is it etherape23:03
eertreyou probably read, but u didnt wanted to talk in many words so u can give ma complete response :pp23:03
ActionParsnipeertre: so where does "(23:59:40) eertre: no, u dont want to listen to me, serious ... can i private you?"  come from?23:03
blzeph3meral, and you generally want to check with the theme developer to know what the dependencies are.  Sounds like you're probably missing a library of some sort.23:03
ActionParsnipeertre: when it's clearly not the case23:03
stevenmeyerThank you so much!!!!23:03
ActionParsnipeertre: if you give me any sort of attitude when you are clearly WRONG, I will not hesitate in making you look like a complete ASS.23:04
eertreActionParsnip: u rule, u listen, u the best helper, u are a god of helpers ... but tell me please, if i decide to do my own partitions, where and when and how can i do it?23:04
eertrelol ...23:04
ActionParsnipeertre: the partitions will be 1x RAM for swap and the rest in Ext4 for /23:04

Guest4600I would love some popcorn.23:05
Ali1_apacabout how long does it take toi install 11.10?23:05
eertreActionParsnip, and the23:05
eertreso the swap will be 4 GB, and the rest will be formated in ext4 ?!23:05
FyodorovnaAli1_apac, about 20 min here depends on your download speed and if you run with updates included.23:06
ActionParsnipeertre: if you want something more extravagant (like a seperate /home partition) you will need to select to do something else, write a new partition table then setup the partitions as you need23:06
eertreAli1_apac, a few minutes23:06
ActionParsnipeertre: yes, if you have 4Gb ram you will get 4Gb swap (for hibernate etc) and the rest for / formatted Ext423:06
gr33n7007hbeaglebr1ath, I don't understand what you mean23:06
Barnabaseertre, basic partitioning considerations23:06
eertreso this way i will only have 2 partitions ?!23:06
bitpimpneither version of eclipse I have is able to download packages in ubuntu 11.10 although they could in the past... they are essentially not able to reach the internet... I've tried the obvious settings in Eclipse so now I turn to ubuntu... any suggestions?23:07
bitpimp:vsp23:07
spacebug-where is the config for my icons on the launcher?23:07
blzeertre, by default, Ubuntu will create two partitions:  /  and swap23:07
Barnabasbitpimp, are you able to reach the internet from a regular console?23:07
blzif you change nothing, that's what you'll get23:08
ActionParsnipeertre: if you select to use the whole drive, yes23:08
* gr33n7007h is eating Tandoori Chicken23:08
eertreActionParsnip. now i can prove the fact that u dont read what people say to you, and you look like an ASS: <eertre> ActionParsnip: u rule, u listen, u the best helper, u are a god of helpers ... but tell me please, if i decide to do my own partitions, where and when and how can i do it?23:08

`prixonI'm using 11.10 and I had 11.04 on another partition (on the same HD as the 11.10). I deleted this filesystem partition and formatted it to ntfs because I coudln't access/write to that partition, but unfortunately that didn't help. now I still have a partition that I can't write to. I tried using some advices from forums and sites, but to no avail. what can I do? I tried something like "sudo chown -R username:username /yourPartition" and23:08
`prixon "sudo chmod -R 755 /yourPartition" but nothing changes. I still have no permission to write to this empty partition. the diskutility app says that the usage of this partition is Filesystem. could this be the problem? how can I change the permissions? loading nautilus with sudo also didn't help23:08
physically_fitActionParsnip, thankie23:09
eertreis there any video tutorial for this !?23:09
scientesSDr, that is the size of your memory device, aka flash23:09
bekksSDr: thats nonsense.23:09
ActionParsnipeertre: the GUI is massively simple. If you just have a go you'll be fine. You have nothing to lose as none of the data is needed23:09
scientesSDr, wait guess not, my arm doesn't have that, its /proc/mtd on there23:10
bitpimpBarnabas: yes23:10
schnuffle`prixon: how did you mount your partition?23:10
eertrei can lose a well organized hard drive, a well and smooth working of ubuntu for lack of space to work how it wants to do and so on ...23:10
bitpimpBarnabas: web/ping/irc all intact23:10
`prixonthrough nautilus i think23:10

OledoleDamn, irc is still alive, back to 1998 :-)23:11
scientesOledole, still works too :P23:11
beaglebr1athI have tmux running with the screen split three ways.  each of the screens are attached to /dev/pts/1 /dev/pts/2 /dev/pts/3.  I'd like to use /dev/pts/3 as a place to issue commands to a variety of electronics attached to the serial ports and have their responces appear on a /dev/pts/2.  I'd also like to issue a command from /dev/pts/3 and have it execute on /dev/pts/2.23:11
bekksSDr: Your raid devices are broken. You have a RAID1 spanning two disks, and in both RAID1 groups you have lost one device.23:11
`prixonschnuffle, here or in private? cause it's a bit long23:12
eertreblz, i have a hard of 750 GB with win 7 on it ... i want to format it all ( ALL ALL - i dont need anything, including windows) and i want to install a fresh copy of ubuntu .. my hard has 3 partitions ... C with 350 D with 200 and E with 150 .. woulnd be good to keep this way of partitioning also in ubuntu ? if yes, how do i do it ?! this was my question23:12
ActionParsnipeertre: the drive will never be lost, unless it mechanically fails23:12
excalibourActionParsnip>> i edited the .hosts file with vim and added 2 lan ips. how do istart service as u mentioned before?23:12

ActionParsnipexcalibour: why not just use the netmask, you can do it by IP but using the mask is a bit easier23:12
blzeertre, have you used linux or ubuntu before?23:12
`prixongot you23:12
blzjust wondering, before I dive it =)23:13

`prixonhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/919694/23:13
ActionParsnipeertre: the OS will rarely use more than 6Gb HDD space....23:13
excalibourActionParsnip>> only 2 pc s at the moment so easy to add 2 lines. what should i do now23:13
eertreActionParsnip, i understand ...23:13
blzeertre, Okay, so I'll start with the question "is this a good way of partitioning ubuntu".  The answer to that is "it doesn't sound bad, but it depends on what you want to do"23:13
`prixonSaveDisk is the one i'm talking about23:13
schnuffle`prixon: your disk is mounted readonly23:14
ActionParsnipexcalibour: close vlc, start it up again and you should be ok23:14
SDrbekks, "SDr: Your raid devices are broken. You have a RAID1 spanning two disks, and in both RAID1 groups you have lost one device."   -there should be only 1 RAID1 group23:14
blzas for the rest, the best recommendation I can give you is to start the installer (preferably from a live cd/usb, because the graphical installer is easier to understand) and just play with it.  It's very safe and it'll be fairly obvious23:14
bekksSDr: There are two. md0 and md1.23:14
SDrwhat do you mean by "both RAID1" groups?23:14
`prixonindeed, that's what I'm trying to change23:14
eertrei just want 3 almoust same space partitions where on one i can keep my system, in one i can keep my media and in one i can keep my work ... at least this is how it was on windows23:14
`prixonbut to no avail yet23:14
schnuffle`prixon: to mount it rw unmount it and remount it with folloing command: sudo -t ntfs-3g mount /dev/sdb1 /media/SaveDisk23:15
excalibourActionParsnip>> how will i do that from cli? i am on windows , box is another pc23:15
bekksSDr: both, md0 and md1 are degraded, but still working, with one of two underlying physical disk devices.23:15
blzeertre, fair enough.  In that case, you'll want to name your system partition "/" (without the quotes)23:15
ActionParsnipexcalibour: kill the process and start it how you normally do23:15
blzand you will need to create a swap partition too23:15
blzactually23:15
schnufflesudo  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/SaveDisk23:15
ActionParsnipeertre: if you delete one of the partitions, you can install ubuntu there and dual boot :)23:16

cousteauis `sudo -H some_gui_program` safe?  I know sudo shouldn't be used with graphical programs, however the -H option sets HOME=/root.  Would it then be safe to run stuff with `sudo -H` or could it still cause problems?23:21
