m477romy420: maybe it is just in case second display, or maybe it is keybord highlighting?00:05
romy420m477, idk, at least it's off so no second light. do u see watts too?00:06

vicium\aOr 24xx which my 3 now running mumble servers are running00:10
romy420then i'd say your hardware is just different, at least this answers your question, i guess .. btw: how much does your display use?00:10

bazhang_There is some debate whether certain types of sexual sensations should be accurately classified as orgasms, including female orgasms caused by G-Spot stimulation alone, and the demonstration of extended or continuous orgasms lasting several minutes or even an hour.[8] The question centers around the clinical definition of orgasm, but this way of viewing orgasm is merely physiological, while there are al00:36
bazhang_so psychological, endocrinological, and neurological definitions of 'orgasm'.[6][7][9] In these and similar cases, the sensations experienced are subjective and do not necessarily involve the involuntary contractions characteristic of orgasm. However, the sensations in both sexes are extremely pleasurable and are often felt throughout the body, causing a mental state that is often described as transcend00:36
bazhang_ental, and with vasocongestion and associated pleasure comparable to that of a full-contractionary orgasm. For example, modern findings support distinction between ejaculation and male orgasm.[7] For this reason, there are views on both sides as to whether these can be accurately defined as orgasms.[9]00:36

bazhang_Orgasms may be achieved by a variety of activities. In men, sufficient stimulation can be achieved during vaginal or anal sexual intercourse, oral sex (fellatio) or masturbation/non-penetrative sex. In women, orgasm can be achieved during vaginal sexual intercourse, oral sex (cunnilingus) or masturbation/non-penetrative sex. It may also be by the use of a sensual vibrator or an erotic electrostimulation00:36
Dr_Willismisspaste much? ;)00:37
bazhang_In males00:37
bazhang_Two-stage model00:37
bazhang_In men, the most common way of achieving orgasm is by the stimulation of the penis.[2] This is usually accompanied by ejaculation. It is possible for a man to have an orgasm without ejaculation (known as a "dry orgasm") or to ejaculate without reaching orgasm (which may be a case of delayed ejaculation, a nocturnal emission or a case of anorgasmic ejaculation).[7][15] Men may also achieve orgasm by stimulation of the prostate (see00:37

pseudosudoI need help! I just did the stupidest thing ever. I removed the .cache folder in my home directory by accident. I don't know what problems that may cause. Is there any way to recover it?00:40
Daekdroompseudosudo, is it in the trash?00:41
pseudosudoi did sudo -rm -r .cache00:41
pseudosudoso no, i don't think so00:41
pseudosudosudo rm -r .cache***00:41
pseudosudoi pressed tab when i type sudo rm -r .c, because i was trying to delete another folder called .config instead. but it selected the .cache folder when i pressed tab and i pressed enter00:42
pseudosudonow i'm afraid to restart my server00:42
DaekdroomI don't think you server will suffer anything, whatever you run in it might, however.00:42
DanielHoffmanis there an app avalible to generate a .config file for linux 3.5 that autoconfigures it for my system?00:43
JeffsiHello, I have a software raided windows box. I tried installing ubuntu through wubi but was given errors so i removed it. I later found out grub was left on. whenever I boot now it gives me a recover grub (i don't remember what exactly it was called) prompt. No matter what I do, I am unable to restore the original MBR. I have tried using lilo , UBCD , the original windows 7 disk. I am stuck and how no idea where to go from here.00:43
DanielHoffmantry burning pupp linux and using that grub installer00:44
pseudosudoDaekroom, so there is nothing I can do to recover it?00:44
JeffsiI want to remove grub though00:44
help2manI know somebody will know this is it in mtools or the package ntfs-3g came in I forget I just need to beable to mount a fat32 or other old fat fs mount -t fat32 doesn't exist for my mount00:45

DanielHoffmando you have access to that system at all?00:46
DanielHoffmanor are you stuck at that prompt00:46
JeffsiI am stuck at the prompt00:47
DanielHoffmanyou may be able to make one with a USB rive00:47
DanielHoffmanUSB Drive00:47
DanielHoffmanBut you can only oot from it if your BIOS supports it00:48
Jeffsiis there something i can run from either the live cd or windows cd00:48
DanielHoffmanthe ubuntu live cd?00:48
Jeffsior possible something i can do from the grub prompt00:48
Jeffsiyes00:48
romy420DanielHoffman, read README, it explains prettymuch how to configure and compile the kernel00:48
help2man"what is the little envelop icon at the top for on ubuntu 12" for setting up email and im empathy ...etc :)00:49
DanielHoffmanyou can boot the live CD and run install grub00:49
DanielHoffmanor apt-get install grub and write it to your MBR00:49
JeffsiI think my software raid may actually be causing problems when booting from the live cd00:49
DanielHoffmanromy420:i will00:50
Jeffsii can get in but it individually lists the drives00:50
DanielHoffmanwhat do you mean?00:50
DanielHoffmanit may be having trouble with that.00:51
pseudosudoI need help! I removed the .cache folder in my home directory by accident. I don't know what problems that may cause. Is there any way to recover it?00:51
Jeffsiin gparted the drives are individually with unallocated space00:51
DanielHoffmanis there an option to enable RAID in GParted00:52
Jeffsinot that i saw unless i overlooked something00:53
TheShellfishMemeI was wondering, can someone point me in the right direction for sharing a wifi connection via lan while still having the wifi router handle IP distribution etc so that wifi devices can see my lan devices? right now I used the simple network manager ¨share¨ option00:53
jagginessDanielHoffman, use the alternative iso for raid support00:53
TheShellfishMemebut that doesnt allow devices on wifi to see it00:53
DanielHoffmanjagginess: i not having the problem00:54
romy420Jeffsi: you can repair your windows 7 install/remove grub like described here: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/win7-windows-7-mbr,10036.html and for raid setups you have to download the 'alternate cd' from ubuntu00:54
bwat47pseudosudo: removing that folder should not cause any big issues as far as i'm aware, its temporary files00:54
TheShellfishMemebasically I just want to merge a cable based network and a wifi network so that my internal transfers can make use of gigabit lan00:54
TheShellfishMemebut I do not have physical access to the router00:54
l3dhelp2man, is there a way to remove the icon (little envelope)?00:55
oXisI thing to go back to windows because this fucking problem!!!!!00:55
jagginessTheShellfishMeme, wifi's aren't gigabit00:55
Jeffsiromy420: I tried this but /rebuildbcd and /fixboot give 'Element not found" error00:55
TheShellfishMemeyes that is the point00:55
TheShellfishMememy media servers are slow so I want to have all my computers use the cable network, but I want to be able to access the media servers from my tablet. my roommate has the router in her room so I cannot just directly connect00:56
=== Dyson is now known as Guest39661
TheShellfishMemeso I need one computer to take the wifi connection and distribute it to the rest of the network. that does work but it creates a private network that my wifi devices cannot see00:57
jagginessTheShellfishMeme, sounds like you have a cheap AP00:57
TheShellfishMemewhat do you mean jagginess?00:57
TheShellfishMemewifi can never beat gigabit lan00:57
TheShellfishMemeat least not now00:57
romy420Jeffsi, try to reboot as the article says /fixmbr in most cases solves the issue ... i remember that it worked for me00:57
jagginessTheShellfishMeme, what throughput can you get on your wifi?00:58
TheShellfishMeme1MB / s, something like that00:58
TheShellfishMemebut I have no physical access to the AP00:58
jagginessTheShellfishMeme, something isn't setup properly.00:58
jagginessTheShellfishMeme, you'll have to check your router's manuals00:58
TheShellfishMemethe point is that it is not my router, please read what I am wiring00:58

TheShellfishMemesorry, mate. will do. this is not a university, it is a shared flat. my roommate with router access is on holidays. my only option is to take the signal and distribute it in my cable lan01:00
bazhangGuest39661, md5 the iso prior to burning?01:00
TheShellfishMemewhich works. but it creates a new network that cannot be seen by the other devices connected to the wifi. that is the problem I am trying to solve01:00

romy420only if your setup involves raid disks and even then only if this raid will be a part of your ubuntu installation like / or /home01:09

romy420did u install windows on that raid or is it just data?01:15

zykotick9arunkumar413: what database do you want?  use apt-get (or Ubuntu Software Center) to install it...01:19
arunkumar413zykotick9, i'm just asking if any database is installed by default when i installed ubuntu. also is there any command to know the installed databases01:21
GeminiDominoI've got a weird update issue. I have 3 lucid servers that, after my last round of security updates, won't start apache, mysql, or cron after rebooting. I tried using update-rc.d to recreate the init.d links, but no dice. Anyone know anything about this?01:21
zykotick9arunkumar413: i doubt there is any "default" system database settings.  if you install a database, you typically know it and know why.  i'm sure default ubuntu does use some database programs by default - but i'm not sure specifically which ones.  your question seems to broad.01:22
romy420Jeffsi, idk another way than what we already tried ... i know it can be done, here is another, more detailed description of the process: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system/fixboot-is-not-recognized-an-internal-command-when/be670366-bdf1-4b44-b70f-ee692e3464d9?msgId=bff24933-d815-4092-8697-f9bf342dfb29 maybe u should try again01:23

ubottuCorvus: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also  !Restricted and !Gnash02:12
CorvusEh...02:12
romy420Jeffsi, i understand that. just dont remove anything u are not sure about and that may lead to total data loss. there are boot cd's available that may also help to restore this. i would try a reinstall of linux, just to get a working bootloader stage02:12
CorvusI have flash. It just doesn't function as it should.02:13
CorvusSo I'm somewhat confused.02:13
SnowieCorvus, ok. So which method did you use to install it. From the repo's, from adobe site etdc02:13
Jeffsiromy420: with reinstalling linux, the only option it was giving me was to erase and install02:14
CorvusThe Software Manager thing, I believe.02:14
CorvusAlso tried manually adding the files and all, but that didn't help.02:14
CorvusI have tried other methods of installing it with no luck, as well as that "Gnash" thing.02:15

AuzyNot as well as flash I found corvus.. What problem you having?05:04
AmbreiousIxnayesgreat, thank you.05:04
DerpianCorvus- Try Gnash, it won't work as well as Adobe Flash though...05:04
goddardAmbreiousIxnayes: honestly you will always have problems with ipods im afriad05:04
DerpianBest bet is to wait till HTML5 takes over05:04
CorvusThe problem is pretty much that Adobe isn't working. I use flash primarily for videos and games, but I'll take whatever I can get.05:04
Derpianalso for some videos (Without ads) you can view HTML5 videos on youtube: youtube.com/html505:05
AuzyChrome has flash built in too (but, the current version is broken for me, and I had to revert to adobe)05:05
goddardCorvus: if you watch videos I moved away from the browser and back to video streams.  I use Miro to manage them.  You can actually even use YouTube as an RSS feed.05:05
DerpianAdditional Restrictions (we are working on these!)05:06
DerpianVideos with ads are not supported (they will play in the Flash player)05:06
DerpianOn Firefox and Opera, only videos with WebM transcodes will play in HTML505:06
DerpianIf you've opted in to other testtube experiments, you may not get the HTML5 player (Feather is supported, though)05:06
goddardvideo performance is WAY better05:06
FloodBot1Derpian: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.05:06
Derpianhttp://www.youtube.com/html5 can't wait till this takes off05:06
CorvusChrome, I suppose I'll try that. Other than that, I believe "Gnash" was mentioned? I tried installing that at some point, but what exactly is it?05:06
goddardGnash is horrible05:07
goddardnot even worth trying in my opinion05:07
AuzyGnash will never be able to compete with Flash.. Problem is, Flash is a moving target, and, with the looming HTML5 changeover eventually (and even with Adobe losing interest in flash), it would be hard to inspire developers to work on Gnash05:08
vexaxvhey guys please check out this forum post i just made.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=12134816#post1213481605:08
CorvusI suppose that makes sense. So if Chrome doesn't work, I'll just have to keep trying with Adobe?05:08
DerpianCorvus- seems so05:08
goddardCorvus: for videos use a desktop app and games you gotta put up with Adobe05:09
CorvusDamn. I suppose I'll live, though. At least Youtube works, now that I can use html5.05:09
Derpiancorvus: Keep in mind only some of them work with html5 player. videos with ads go to flash05:10
CorvusSome is better than nothing.05:10

aashu_dwivedi_i have ubuntu on my system , and around 30 gb of space lying around as ntfs i want to install windows on this space but i am afraid that would damage my ubuntu installation what is the recommended way to do it ?05:48
jmrogaashu_dwivedi_: Which version of Windows?05:48
aashu_dwivedi_windows 705:48
StoneCypherhow hard would it be to upgrade mysql beyond what's in apt?  upgrading ubuntu wiped out jenkins, and fixing that is borderline nightmarish05:49
coopHello everyone05:49
jmrogaashu_dwivedi_: You should be able to choose to install to that partition and it won't mess with your other partitions. Always back up your important data to be safe, though.05:49
cfhowlettaashu_dwivedi_: dual boot.  quite easy.  You WILL have to reinstall/restore grub after installing windows.05:49
jmrogaashu_dwivedi_: You will have to restore the boot-loader afterwards, though.05:49
Hackuin__aashu_dwivedi_, No worry's, Just install it and fix the grub.05:49
jmrogBasically, what everyone else just said :)05:49
cfhowlettcoop: greetings.  What's YOUR ubuntu support question05:49
aashu_dwivedi_so i need to take a backup of grub before that ? how to reinstall/ restore grub ? sorry i am a n00b05:50
cfhowlett!restore05:50
jmrogaashu_dwivedi_: you don't need to backup grub. You can use a LiveCD05:50
cfhowlett!grub05:50

coopI have been searching on how to get a few things working, I have run modprobe and lspci -v but it doesn't work ... Not sure how or were to go from here I ma using Precis 12.04 64b05:51
coopI have a sound card that is Intel and video that is Intel GMA 300005:51
Kryllxcoop, sweet setup05:52
Kryllxcoop, what kind of processor would a puppy like that be running?05:52
oXisThe file '/home/xbmc_ubuntu/Downloads/minecraft.jar' is not marked as executable.  If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.  For more details, read about the executable bit.05:52
oXisrunning jar problem ^^05:52
coopSound Card is this ->Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 0205:52
coopI don;t remember let me look lol05:53
coopKryllx -> Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 / 2.13 GHz05:54
Kryllxcoop, hot05:54
coopWith 4gb of ram as well05:54
Kryllxcoop, hot diggity!05:54
cooplol kryllx you and I both know it ain;t all that05:54
jmrogcoop: What problem are you having with the sound card?05:54
Kryllxcoop, lol05:55
coopjmrog well it seems to be playing through the pc speaker and I have connected everything properly05:55
WhatWhereAmIanybody know how to get wine working in amd64? https://gist.github.com/318627205:55
Kryllxcoop, ok. Do you see the sound card when you do the lspci command?05:55
coopbut still no worky05:55
coopYes I do05:55
yahooshuaIs there a way to hide the unity bar on the side?05:55
cfhowlettWhatWhereAmI: standard installation method worked for me...05:56
coopAudio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller05:56
jmrogyahooshua: I asked you earlier, do you just mean auto-hide it so that it goes away when you're not trying to use it?05:56
Kryllxcoop, ok, it's recognized so that's a good thing.05:56
WhatWhereAmIcfhowlett: i get this from both the ubuntu repo version and the wine repo version =\05:56
yahooshuajmrog: I know and I replied a little later. Sorry grabbed some tea. Yes, anything like that05:56
cfhowlettWhatWhereAmI: error message?05:56
coopYes sir and I believe it's fine just don;t understand what's going on with it05:56
jmrogcoop: I must have missed what your problem is. You don't want it playing through the speaker?05:57
Kryllxcoop, so can you hear it out of the speaker or not?05:57
coopNot through the pc speaker no05:57
WhatWhereAmIcfhowlett: there's not really an error, check the link. https://gist.github.com/318627205:57
coopBut through the Speaker I bought for it yes05:57
WhatWhereAmIapt gives me some crazy solution that results in no changes.05:57
coopKryllx, I can hear it through the internal PC Speaker not the external I bought for it05:58
Kryllxcoop, so it works when you plug a speaker into the output jack, but not when the speaker is unplugged05:58
jmrogyahooshua: No problem, must have missed it. In Unity, click on the gear next to your username (at the top right on the panel), and select 'System Settings...' Choose 'Appearance," and then turn Auto-hide the Launcher on.05:58
coopNo it does not when I plug it in to the output jack05:58
Kryllxcoop, well, I'll tell you some things to do. You may not like them05:58
cooplol Yeah I figured as much lol05:58
Kryllxcoop, get a terminal window up. It won't bite05:59
coopI'll Figure it out I guess05:59
Kryllxcoop, I'll tell you some things to check05:59
coopKryllx, Yeah I already have one up05:59
Kryllxcoop, ok check the alsa stuff --> sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-utils05:59
coopKryllx, I would appreciate it and I am not afraid of linux I promise06:00
Kryllxcoop, ok, do that command then06:00
coopAhhh Okay I didn;t think of that dang06:00
SnowieHowdy. Trying to preview ardour 3 beta 5. get a segmentation fault on start. have checked things like memory limits etc. It says 'core dumped'. Is there a way i can find out what's happening in more detail. http://paste.ubuntu.com/1115065/06:00
yahooshuajmrog: awesome, thank you for saving me some Google time06:00
jmrogyahooshua: No problem06:00
WhatWhereAmISnowie: do you know how gdb works?06:00
coopWell I figured it's already at newest version06:01
Kryllxcoop, well, we need those to run the "alsamixer" command. Do that06:01
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, no. is that something i could get my head around in an afternoon?06:01
Kryllxcoop, you might need to do "sudo alsamixer"06:01
coopKryllx, it may be I am hooking it up wrong two things you should know one is I am using a Curtis LCD2223A TV/Monitor for this and I am trying to hook up the sound through it06:02
WhatWhereAmISnowie: start here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash06:02
Kryllxcoop, we'll just check in alsamixer that everything is unmuted first06:02
WhatWhereAmIKryllx: regular alsamixer should be fine06:02
coopI also do have a little Linux Knowledge but not as much as some folks in here06:02
WhatWhereAmIassuming he's running regular pulseaudio and everything06:02
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, there is actually a debugger along with the installer. thanks mate, will start reading06:03
coopKryllx, Will do06:03
=== Lulz is now known as Qub1t
WhatWhereAmIsounds like it might be a device selection issue?06:03
coopKryllx, Thanks I got exactly what I needed from that06:03
Kryllxcoop, play some sound and watch alsamixer06:03
Kryllxcoop, cool06:04
Kryllxcoop, it was worth me teasing you, huh? ;)06:04
coopYup That's alright Kryllx every dog has their day hehe06:05
Kryllxlolz06:05
coopNo movement on the alsamixer y the way06:05
coopooops by I meant06:05
cfhowlettWhatWhereAmI: if you're feeling really brave, you could run apt-get install wine --force -yes.  --force -yes is a power user option that overrides the usual safety measures and WILL put your system at risk of breakage.06:05
WhatWhereAmIcfhowlett: that sounds highly scary06:06
cfhowlettWhatWhereAmI: with great power ...06:06
WhatWhereAmIcoop: assuming you're running default pulseaudio i would highly recommend pavucontrol for a longer term solution.06:06
WhatWhereAmIworth checking out anyway06:06
coopThis is really the first time i have had problems with both sound and Video06:06
coopWhatWhereAmI, Thank you I will look into it.06:07
coopUsually fires up right out of the box no problems but i really think my Problem may lie in this Curtis TV/Monitor06:08
WhatWhereAmIcfhowlett: i'm gonna read about that option in the apt-get man page and see how i feel about it06:08
cfhowlettWhatWhereAmI: consider running a virtualbox of x/l/ubuntu.  test things out there without risking your primary system.06:08
coopMy resolution is 1024 x 768 some how I think with a 22 inch monitor it should get better than that06:08
WhatWhereAmIcoop: usually everything works great out of the box unless you have fancy hardware configurations with multiple hardware audio devices06:08
WhatWhereAmIcoop: i would look up the specs for the monitor online to figure out for sure what the res should be06:09
coopTrying to use a box I got for 50 bucks Lenovo MT 881306:09
jeffreycan anyone tell me why ubuntu recommends the 32bit version on the download page?06:10
coopAll I had to do was put in a laptop drive i had and I was in business06:10
coopWell sorta anyway lol06:10
cfhowlettjeffrey: because it alomost always works.  64 bit is recommended if you have 4 gigs or more of ram.06:10
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, tried gdb but it didn't recognise the file format. it's the binary.06:10
coopAlrighty then off to goole heaven06:10
jeffreycfhowlett: well i have 4gb, i should be installing 64bit, right?06:10
cfhowlettjeffrey: and your CPU?06:11
jeffreycfhowlett: 2500k06:11
WhatWhereAmISnowie: use the "file" command to check the actual type of the binary06:11
jeffreycfhowlett: intel i506:11
cfhowlettjeffrey: no no, CPU version.  Pentium, or what06:11
jeffreyintel i506:11
jeffrey2500k06:11
cfhowlettjeffrey: ah.  Yeah, I'd definitely try 64 bit.  I've got dual core pentium with 4 gigs and it seems to love U ubuntuStudio 6406:12
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, hmm, "/opt/Ardour-3.0beta5_13072/bin/ardour3": not in executable format: File format not recognised... um, that's the file i run to start if from terminal06:12
WhatWhereAmISnowie: right, it's probably a shell script06:13
Snowieah, ok, ill gedit it and see what's in there06:13
WhatWhereAmIdo "file /opt/Ardour-3.0beta5_13072/bin/ardour3"06:13

yahooshuaIs it possible to add Skype account to Empathy, if only for chat?06:17
cfhowlettMizeryBear: greetings.  What is YOUR ubuntu support question.06:17
coopThings I have read says Ubuntu 12.04 should pick this up with no problem\06:17
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, youre right, it's a shell script. when i try to run the executable directly, it fails. (obviously the shell script creates a needed config for start)06:18
cfhowlettyahooshua: possible but not easy.  I tried multiple methods with 10.04 then gave up the effort.06:18
WhatWhereAmIcoop: if it's displaying stuff, then ubuntu has definitely picked it up06:18
coopAnd I am not as seasoned as you guys are so I am still learning there for the reason I am here06:18
coopYes it is sorry just not to my licking06:18
WhatWhereAmISnowie: could you pastebin the shell script?06:18
cfhowlettcoop: *whisper*  We're ALL still learning06:18
coopliking lol06:18
jmrogcoop: I don't think the GMA 3000 supports resolutions that high06:18
cfhowlettcoop: thanks for correcting that06:19
WhatWhereAmIjmrog: was my suspicion06:19
yahooshuacfhowlett: thanx, thought so06:19
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, sure, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1115084/06:19
coopYou could be right jmrog however I would think it could atleast do 1280 x 800 or even 72006:19
coopYour Welcome cfhowlett06:19
cooplol I noticed it right away06:20
jmrogcoop, WhatWhereAmI: I'm only basing that thought on quick googling, though, and now I'm seeing some mixed results, so it's not clear to me what resolution it supports06:20
coopjmrog, so you feel my pain and now know why I am here06:21
IlikeMoosei have a hard drive adapter that goes from usb to serial ATA, can i plug in a factory fresh hard drive into this adapter and mirror my entire running installation of ubuntu so when i slap the new drive in it boots?06:21

jmrogcoop: Guess so :)06:21
coopI just wish I had more experience so I could figure this out06:22
WhatWhereAmISnowie: add --debug to your command when running the shell script06:22

SnowieWhatWhereAmI, awsome man. thanks so much. I love seeing the features in beta's, but often when i have an issue, i can only explain "When i click play it freezes for ages and then dies" i feel like i can be alot more valuable now06:38
fulat2kanyone here using 12.04 with Latitude E5520 or E6530?  Any problems with drivers?06:38
WHAT_UPthe above holds for both vlc and totem or whatever the builtin player is called these days06:38
WHAT_UPvlc doesn't even seem to recognize that there's an audio track most of the time06:39
WhatWhereAmISnowie: the debug tools in linux are actually really awesome. the whole gcc / gdb toolchain is one of my favorite parts of linux.06:39
WhatWhereAmIgdb has a ton of great features that are really complicated.06:39
WhatWhereAmIWHAT_UP: does this happen when you use vlc to play an audio file, an mp3 for example?06:41
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, that's what has kept me with ubuntu desktop for like 4 years now. I'm not a coder, just believe in the free ethos. Right now i think of muy skills as 'post-noob'. As in, I know enough to make sure i dont break anything critical, how to find the answer (usually) in google, and when im just beaten. Like right now, i dont have the skills to fix it, but at least I can now forward on my experience06:42
WhatWhereAmISnowie: the best advice i can give you is get comfortable talking to people on mailing lists. they're the ones who really know what's going on.06:43
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: hmm. the video issue doesn't seem to work for videos on another hard drive. could it be that because i'm writing to the first drive, reading isn't going fast enough to handle sound as well? i'm looking for an mp3 now to test what happens if i run that from the written-to drive06:44
WhatWhereAmImost open source applications are gonna have dedicated users mailing lists.06:44
WhatWhereAmIWHAT_UP: that sounds weird!06:44
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: i get a lot of "main subpicture error: blending YUVA to I411 failed" errors in the terminal from vlc. googling it doesn't help much.06:45
WhatWhereAmIi was asking on the off chance that the media player was having trouble finding the correct audio track06:45
WhatWhereAmIhm06:45
WhatWhereAmIare you sure your video file isn't slightly corrupt?06:45
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: mp3 works fine06:45
WhatWhereAmIis it more than one video from more than one source?06:45
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: i guess it could be, but i never had this problem before. the video is from a single source, but it's kind of shady (video camera writing to a hard drive that might not be able to handle the load at times, but generally seems fine)06:46
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: i know the audio track is there, because it does seem to load *part* of the time for each individual video06:46
WHAT_UPit's weird that there's a nondeterminism here06:47
WhatWhereAmIWHAT_UP: wait, is the file currently being written?06:47
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: unless over 10 files are being copied in parallel, the answer should be no to at least some of them06:47
WhatWhereAmIso the file that you're playing is finished writing06:48
WhatWhereAmIdo you have mplayer installed?06:48
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: hmm06:48
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: yes. let me try it.06:48
WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: yes. and it seems to work there without fault06:49
WhatWhereAmIwhat you should do is play a file that exhibits the problem in mplayer, stop mplayer, then pastebin the output.06:49

WHAT_UPWhatWhereAmI: not needed for my case :P. i need to identify some basic info about the videos (lecture title, speaker, affiliation, etc) so i can put in the metadata into a database so my script can (hopefully) process them =). small-size is good enough for this. mplayer seems like a clean player for future purposes, though, so thanks!06:59

terminhelljenia: You can start gnome terminal with the command "gnome-terminal --geometry=100x100" Where 100x100 is replaced with the dimensions you want. If you pick something bigger than your monitor then it will run fullscreen07:16
Snowiegreenit, ahh, so you always get the grub window. I had an issue where on every start i would get a black screen on boot. To fix i had to hold shift on start and boot into recovery mode, then restart from there, and all would be fine. Do you get different splash screens between your initial boot and your restart?07:17
greenitSnowie, yeah, the first splash-screen looks like the normal 12.04 screen, the second, when i reboot, it looks like a crappy version of that07:18

terminhellnot exactly08:14
terminhellhonestly i prefer cli for any sort of upgrades08:14
terminhelland even more honestly, im not even using ubuntu08:14
WhatWhereAmISnowie: i had a job as a programmer where it was just me in california and 30 guys in bangladesh08:14
Snowieterminhell, :O08:14
WhatWhereAmIthat didn't work out08:14
terminhelli just like helping out in here08:14
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, how was that?08:15
WhatWhereAmIterminhell: i only use aptitude for aptitude search :P08:15
terminhellWhatWhereAmI: :p apt-cache search08:15
WhatWhereAmISnowie: really weird! i actually didn't do anything most of the time08:15
WhatWhereAmIterminhell: i can't be bothered to remember the differences between apt-cache and apt-get!08:15
terminhellhaha08:15
Snowieok, while we are talking. how does an app end up in the repos. I'd really like to see things like spotify and ardour3 (when out of beta) in there as soon as i can. How does that work?08:16
WhatWhereAmIthat was the reason i liked aptitude, hah. but now that i know it might be doing weird stuff when i try to run install, i'm not so sure :P08:16
terminhelli did use ubuntu off and on from 5.10 to 11.04 ish08:16
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, that sounds like an awesome expert level IT job ;)08:16
WhatWhereAmISnowie: package maintainers and ppas!08:16
WhatWhereAmISnowie: i watched the entire star trek TNG series in the office08:16
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, and what does that mean when it's at home08:16
terminhellSnowie: a huge chunk of ubuntu *and derivities* piggy back from debian08:16
amageeterminhell: haha, i figured out how to change the monitor's input to HDMI and now instead of getting a black screen i get a bright blue screen :P08:17
terminhellamagee: *high five* progress!08:17
Snowieterminhell, the 'spotify linux preview' works great. it should be added imho08:17
terminhelljust 2 more colors to go08:17
amageeyes it's totally not annoying :P08:17
Snowielol08:18
terminhellSnowie: packages can be submitted to distro maintainers, they decide what they want08:18
WhatWhereAmIshortly after i was hired my boss left for bangladesh so i was alone in the office for months. he had me putting together an asterisk-based phone system. once i had completed it and transitioned the office to it i was able to rig it to call my cell phone whenever my ext was dialed. i then stopped coming in.08:18
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, well that's productivity in a sense08:18
terminhellSnowie: of course its much more complicated than that, but ya08:18
Snowieterminhell, ok. so if i think something is stable, but i dont maintain (or have anything to do with it) where would i send that?08:19
WhatWhereAmISnowie: what's the ardour version you're previewing?08:19
beanpolehellooo again08:19

malikmasrnot sure what the issue is exactly to be honest08:22
WhatWhereAmISnowie: it's all about the package maintainer system and a whole process for getting something into the repo. it's not super difficult but a bit of an undertaking.08:22
malikmasreven with the help of the log08:22
beanpolepiratebay.se and torrentz.eu is not working for me here google is working08:22
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, got any reading material i could have a look at?08:22
terminhellSnowie: its a bit more, convoluted still. Different distros may have a certain outlook, or restricted by packag management (.deb vs .rpm), or a vision,, or goal set by the distro08:22
killerwhy installing a software takes a long time ......4-5 times the normal ........(in unpacking and setting up the package)08:23

ghargoilok, noob question -- but I'm trying to run a server (google wave server, actually) from behind my firewall, but not as root08:35
WhatWhereAmIterminhell: good god, sir.08:35
beanpoleis 1 mbps bad08:36
Snowieterminhell, ZOMG!!111!!!!!08:36
ghargoilbut I'm having a hell of a time trying to do any kind of port forwarding...e.g. port 80 to whatever it is behind the firewall08:36
Snowieterminhell, awesome  man08:36
terminhellXD08:36
beanpolehow many mbps is fast08:36
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: where is your firewall? on the router?08:36
ghargoiliptables... its all remote08:36
ghargoil:p08:36
terminhell9876mbps is fast, anything less is terrible08:37
Myrtticome on guys, lets keep the offtopic to #ubuntu-offtopic08:37

terminhellSnowie: thanks man, i get odd looks for it to this day, and by the tat guy too08:38
DFrostedWangHow can I move my login prompt to, for example, the top left of my screen? I have the wallpaper with the animal-thingy for 12.04 and can't see it during login.08:38
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: so just to be clear, you need to configure iptables on the gateway in front of your server to forward some ports08:38
ghargoilerr, no, on the same server08:38
ghargoilthere's just one server08:38
beanpoledo u guys have any idea about 3g?08:38
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: is there a gateway in front of that server such as a router?08:38
DFrostedWangPangolin, that's what it is!08:39
ghargoilnope08:39
Snowieterminhell, i love the comments. they're too nerdie to be funny, but i love them all08:39
terminhellDFrostedWang: im sure theres a slim conf file somehwere08:39
DFrostedWangAnyway, any help with that?08:39
Snowieterminhell, makes me want to check my uptime :P08:39
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: okay, and this isn't through some managed hosting environment that would have firewalls in front of it that you don't know about, right?08:39
Snowiebrb08:39
terminhellhaha08:40
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: nope08:40
ghargoilit's one of those, throw you into the pool and you learn how to swim yourself servers08:40
ghargoil:p08:40
WhatWhereAmIthen it sounds like you need to forward those ports through iptables.08:40
Snowieib08:40
terminhellDFrostedWang: why change it? you look at it for all of what, 3 seconds?08:41
ghargoilyeah, I just donno how to do it properly :(08:41
DFrostedWangYeah, but those 3 seconds matter08:41
ghargoilI think I also fubared something08:41
terminhelllol08:41
terminhellfair enough DFrostedWang08:41
DFrostedWangI want it to be a perfect distro. Any little thing is a problem.08:41
DFrostedWangAnd that's why I have Linux08:41
DFrostedWang:D08:41
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: I just ran "iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp -d <YOUR_IP> --dport 80 -j DNAT --to <YOUR_IP>:9898"08:41
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: i assume you did the initial iptables configuration, right? i mean, iptables shouldn't be firewalling everything by default...08:41
GrimhoundHello08:42
DFrostedWangI can't find a config file for it08:42
SnowieGrimhound, hello :)08:42
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: this was from http://bit.ly/O4WNtQ08:42
GrimhoundI need help with something. I have searched for months on and off with no luck.08:42
terminhellDFrostedWang: id google Slim themes, and or editing, atleast i think ubuntu still uses slim08:42
DFrostedWangActually, I am having trouble finding any config files08:42
Snowie!ask | Grimhound08:42
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: well, I currenly only allow 80 and 44308:42
ubottuGrimhound: 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 !patience08:42
terminhellDFrostedWang: id start in /etc first08:43
DFrostedWangkk08:43
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: but locally you can access the server on 9898, right?08:43
terminhellDFrostedWang: or possibly /boot im not sure where they hide it08:43
LordFDiskmight help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo08:43
GrimhoundThe default speaker out connector on my motherboard is broken, so I need to retask another connector to be the speaker out. This is a relatively easy task using the Realtek HD Audio Manager in Windows, but I have no idea how to do this with Linux.08:43
hipitihop_WhatWhereAmI, sorry, so many distraction here... VirtualBox ... I've never had the issue either, host is 12:04 ad have had no probs win win and other linux guests, so something in LinuxMCE setup itself I'm guessing08:43
Snowie!alsa | Grimhound08:44
ubottuGrimhound: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.08:44
r1seriHi mates. grub related question. Is there any way to detect if device exists? like "if exists(uuid=blah) then default=1 else default=2"08:44
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: yep; well... should I just tell you the long story here?08:44
terminhellGrimhound: good luck. Some propriatary functionality can only be done natively =/08:44
DFrostedWangIt either isn't in /etc/ or Ubuntu no longer uses slim08:45
WhatWhereAmIhipitihop_: i don't know anything about linuxmce08:45
DFrostedWangfind: `slim': No such file or directory08:45
ghargoilor you just want the problem without the background/motivations :p08:45
SnowieGrimhound, there is a terminal app that might help, try $ alsamixer08:45
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: i think i'm getting the hang of it08:45
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: can you telnet to port 80 on localhost?08:45
GrimhoundYou'd think retasking an audio connector would be simple.08:45
GrimhoundBut nope.08:45
GrimhoundApparently not.08:46
GrimhoundI give up on Linux.08:46
terminhellDFrostedWang:  try looking in /boot or even /usr08:46
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: err well, right now, no, because I added that last rule to IP tables which I guess fubared it all08:46
ghargoilbut yeah, I was running a server earlier08:46
ghargoilcherokee08:46
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: i assume you no longer have that server trying to listen on port 8008:47
terminhellthen complain to the manufacturer grim for writing propriatary stuff...08:47
WhatWhereAmIhe's gone08:47
WhatWhereAmIanother one bites the dust08:47
terminhelli know, just venting08:47
WhatWhereAmIhah08:47
WhatWhereAmIi know what he's talking about, it is just a fancy proprietary realtek driver system08:48
terminhelli dont want people like that using linux tbh08:48
WhatWhereAmIwith a really lame gui08:48
WhatWhereAmIwell, you're a purist08:48
ghargoilWhatWhereAmI: you mean cherokee? yes, it still is listening to 8008:48
ghargoilbut behind the firewall :|08:48
r1serisomeone...? :)08:48
WhatWhereAmIr1seri: dunno, sorry :P08:48
terminhellwell, not stallman purist, but sligtly in his court08:48
WhatWhereAmIr1seri: you might try #grub08:49
WhatWhereAmIghargoil: i feel you should pastebin iptables -L08:49
terminhellits an attitude thing. people come over to linux because they here its almost like windows but haz no virusez! then they expect it to work like windoz...then they fail08:50
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, did i shy grimhound away? i dont mean to get in ppls way. U guys are the kings, im just here trying to help out.08:50
terminhellthen they wonder why people like me facepalm them to death08:50
r1seriWhatWhereAmI: there is silence08:50
DFrostedWangterminhell, Shouldn't I be modifying unity-greeter?08:51
WhatWhereAmIr1seri: there often is in irc.08:51
terminhellDFrostedWang: thats what they call it these days eh? sure go for it lol, make backups haha08:51
Snowiehonest opinion, am i too agresive in trying to help ppl. should i shy away a bit?08:51
DFrostedWangI will08:51
DFrostedWangI always do08:51

laumonierhi i want to see the type of my acces point wifi like in windows where i can see if the ap is in g or n how can i see it on ubuntu???08:52
r1serik08:52
terminhelllaumonier: ip08:52
DFrostedWangIn fact, would "cp -r *.conf" or "find / *.conf | cp /home/ubuntu/Documents/" work as a means to do such a thing?08:53
Snowieterminhell, lol. just being here is ok. but i felt like i just offered that guy something to read, which is what i normally get, and he just left. 'too hard' done08:53
WhatWhereAmIr1seri: that's assuming nobody here knows enough about grub to answer your question. you might also try #linux or something.08:53
DFrostedWangSomething like that, anyway.08:53
WhatWhereAmISnowie: they have to be willing to put in some amount of effort, but you can't have unrealistic expectations either.08:53
WhatWhereAmIa lot of people don't realize these aren't official customer support reps.08:54
WhatWhereAmIthey don't understand the difference.08:54
terminhellexactly08:54
SnowieWhatWhereAmI, yeah, that's why i went to gui add repo for that spotify one. I work it out. might just get less Ubottu on ppl08:54
DFrostedWang##linux is full of *@#!@#08:54

ghargoilit was the iptables command from http://bit.ly/O4WNtQ08:57

WhatWhereAmIGrimhound: lol08:57
terminhellhurray Grimhound08:58
GrimhoundYes, funny intended.08:58
SnowieGrimhound, ok. it's command line based, so i assume you have a terminal with 'alsamixer' running?08:58
terminhellno, applauding your not giving up08:58
GrimhoundYep.08:58
SnowieGrimhound, do you see other out's for audio?08:58
GrimhoundUh.. I don't know what I'm looking at.08:58

jeffreywhich is best09:00
SnowieGrimhound, you should be able to push left/right and choose all the outputs09:00
ghargoilso just the matter of running Google Wave behind a firewall :|09:00
terminhell!best09:00
ubottuUsually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.09:00
jeffreydont you !best me09:00
jeffreyhow dare you09:00
GrimhoundSnowie: And how do I switch them around?09:00
terminhell!bested09:00
terminhellbut seriously jeffrey its up to you09:01
GrimhoundSnowie: My goal is to change the main speaker out from "default" to "not-default"09:01
terminhellconsider the GUI's, default applications, codecs (mint comes with)09:01
GrimhoundBecause the default is borked.09:01
SnowieGrimhound, so you are looking to make a different jack the default. hit f6 and see what you get. does that help you?09:01
GrimhoundSnowie: 0 CA0106, 1 HDA Intel, 2 HD-Audio Generic09:02
terminhelljeffrey: honestly get both if you can, run the livecd's of them for a little while, then decide09:02

JervforsI have a problem: I can't run Ubuntu on my HP Pavillion DV9000. I've tried Wubi, which installs but doesn't start when selecting "Ubuntu" from the boot menu, and I've tried Ubuntu Live on a USB memory (both 32 and 64 bits) which hangs on "ftrace: allocation [x] entries in [y] pages" (I removed the "quiet" option to be able to see this). Where should I start looking? A couple of searches on Google gave me nothing, basically since the ftrac09:02
GrimhoundI have a sound card in the computer for emergency purposes while doing this, but I want the motherboard audio to work since the soundcard is old to the point where it creates major issues.09:03
terminhelllaumonier: your bit rate will determine your wifi standard09:03
LordFDiskfor IPTables videos that might help look up Configuring and Implementing Linux_s iptables - Part 1 in google and then watch them all 1-4 might help give a better idea09:03
SnowieGrimhound, so the motherboard card has how may audio outs?09:04

SnowieGrimhound, yeah, it will be, but having a look, i don't think i have you in the right place09:04
GrimhoundWell, 6 connectors09:04
terminhelljeffrey: yes, its in the under the hood i think09:04

GrimhoundHmm09:08
WhatWhereAmIGrimhound: so here's the thing09:08
laumonierWhatWhereAmI,  on iwlist i just have 802.1x that do not inform me on what i want otherwise it would have been 802.11g or 802.11n09:09
GrimhoundWhatWhereAmI: Please don't let the thing be upsetting.09:09
WhatWhereAmIthe reason this was so easy to do in windows is because realtek wrote a proprietary driver that allowed you to manually remap any of the outputs.09:09
SnowieGrimhound, apoligies and out of your way man. I assumed the options were in alsamixer, i was wrong. sorry man09:09
terminhelllaumonier: the bit rate is what your looking for. compare them with the a/b/g/n standards of bitrates09:10
jeffreyunity sucks but i like the store and update manager it uses09:10
WhatWhereAmIdammit i lost my sentence09:10
terminhelljeffrey: then use gnome-shell, or kde, xfce4, etc09:10
LordFDisklaumonier,  for looking at others wifi look up  Kismet I think thats the package your looking for09:11
GrimhoundWhatWhereAmI: So, is there any way to do this?09:11
WhatWhereAmIGrimhound: basically that stuff doesn't run in linux obviously. it's possible to duplicate, but it's way more complicated because it's all manual. it look like this basically: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Recipes/ActiveSpeakerCrossoverLADSPA09:11
jeffreyif i install cinnamon de, will i still have the ubuntu software store? or will it switch to the cinnamon software store09:11
WhatWhereAmIi can see if i can make that a bit simpler, but i have to brb09:11
terminhelljeffrey: no cin store09:12
m000gle@jeffrey The Ubuntu Software Center will still be there09:12
terminhellGrimhound: you should be able to do this in Sound Settings from the control panel/speaker icon09:12
terminhellthere, you should find a drop down menu for Output devices09:13
terminhellGrimhound: then in the Hardware tab09:13
terminhellGrimhound: cycle thru those till one works09:13

jeffreyterminhell, forgot to thank you for your help earlier, ty09:20
DFrostedWangWhat software can I use to change my fan speed? This may be a BIOS issue, but it worked in Winblows. Now I can't even tell that it's on. Maybe it isn't on. IDK. Any suggestions?09:20
GrimhoundUnder the "Settings for the selected device:" thing, it lists a series of things. Digital Stereo Input, Analog Stereo Input, Analog Surround (tons of them for all forms of surround sound)09:20
WhatWhereAmIjeffrey: i assume you're using the proprietary driver. pretty much anything you can configure will be in nvidia-settings09:20

ubottujeffrey: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use 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 !classic09:37

MerisWhen I install multiple language packs, in my case GB English, Dutch, Swedish and Japanese, both command shell and UI (Unity/ GTK) messages become mixed. When I select Dutch (my native language) and I make a typo on the command line in bash, I get a Japanese error :-S12:38
bekksDarkasakerionz: The Bash Advanced Scripting Guide explains everything you need to know in a quite comprehensive way.12:39
alankilaMeris: hah, that's pretty funny.12:39
Darkasakerionzbekks, thanks12:39
Merisalankila, well, for me it is funny, but for other users of my machine it becomes baffling as they don't understand a single word of Japanese12:40
alankilaMeris: well, it's a comical usability failure for sure. Picking some random installed locale and using that text instead of showing the fallback text is very creative.12:41
Boogeymanwell, since i'm here12:41

fzappafter I updated to 12LTS my wi fi stops working properly12:41
Boogeymanbut conky shows i have no public ip address12:41
alankilaMeris: I imagine the process works like this: gettext(x): scans x for every locale, preferring the primary locale, prints first match that found, and if no match for x, prints x itself (which is usually in English)12:41

DarkSimI read somewhere about all bars being diffrent programs or something, maybe it just didn't load them12:42
Merisalankila, so if I understand you correctly there is a list of messages in human-readable format? If so, where can I find this list so I might edit it?12:43

kronenBluesKaj: installing pastebinit - will post in a moment12:45
alankilaMeris: eh, who knows. I imagine you need to learn how the gettext library works and then see if you can tweak it and then work out maybe how to change it12:46
Hexeonhey guys, I have a fresh install of 12.04, but there is no eth0. lspci and lsmod list Realtek 8139 device and module as installed and loaded though, what's going on?12:47
alankilaimho if gettext really does scan through all installed langauge files looking for translations when it can't find the primary translation, then it's actually harmful, as you have personally seen.12:47
Hexeonifconfig only shows loopback12:47
MerisDarksim, icewm is pretty lightweight, but also quite ugly imho. If you go for lightweight + Windows likeness, go for Lubuntu instead. LXDE along with it's toolbar on the bottom looks very similar to a Windows UI. LXDE is more moder and even more leightweight than Xfce12:47

I've tried this with overlayfs, but I can't stack more than a couple of filesystems, even though I want all mountpoints unioned with that user directory, and I've messed around with aufs, but I don't want the metadata that it writes. Does anyone know what12:54
Boogeymanmy phone is connected to the router fine and can access websites12:54
DarkSimjudging*12:54
Boogeymanand i can ping it on my phone12:54
Merisalankila, yes, it did. Simple solutions can be so elegant :-)12:54
Merisalankila, kiitos.12:54
BluesKajkronen:  do you have any specs on the card like chipset vendor etc ,,, the raid card could be it but it uses a VIA technologies and that's sort of unusual12:54
alankilaMeris: ole hyvä.12:54
Boogeymani have a local ip from the router, i just cant ping the damn thing or open its settings page12:54

livingdaylightlooking in muon I see a thousand and one versions of java. Which is the openjdk7 version I need?12:55
kronenBluesKaj: there's a mini-CD with a bunch of windows drivers that came with it, but it seems to be damaged12:56
OerHekskronen that raid controller has it's own bios, check the manual howto enter it.12:56
kronenOerHeks: there is no manual, just the box and the damaged CD12:56
OerHekskronen download it from the vendor.12:57
fzappBoogeyman, are you accessing via wi fi to the router ?12:57
MerisDarksim, if you practically "live" in the terminal and if you'd like to use your keyboard for just about everything in a wm, try awesome wm, it's very elegant, incredibly lightweight and highly configurable through the scripting language lua.12:57
kronenthe picture says "Promise Technology Inc. PDC20319.  RAID. SATA ISO."  That's all I can make out12:57
jgiorgii have postfix installed and configured but i cant  send mail to any external domain, according to the mail logs the connection times out, im not on a blacklist, tested to make sure im not running an open proxy, what did i miss?12:57
BluesKajkronen:  does the ide/promise card and drive work on windows? , seems like you may need a driver for the card as well12:57
Boogeymanfrom the PC, no, from the phone, yes12:57
kronenOerHeks: I don't know which controller it is, so don't know which manual to download12:57
DarkSimMeris: That is as far away from my needs that I'll ever be. I'm very very unfamiliar with the terminal lol12:58
DarkSimand I have never really programmed in all my life12:58
fzappBoogeyman, can you open the router via brower ?12:58
kronenBluesKaj: Used to work on windows, but there was some problem with a system restore, now it doesn't anymore, and because the driver CD is damaged, they can't get itworking in windows again...12:58
BluesKajkronen:  I think you need new drivers for Linux and Windows both12:59
Boogeymanfzapp, nope, it just times out. and i cant access it from my phone because i have it set not to allow access from wifi :(12:59
kronenBluesKaj: So what do I do?12:59
MerisDarkSim, in that case, stay far away from it ;-)12:59
fzappBoogeyman, beacause maybe your router are bocking http:80 requests from some reason13:00
Boogeymanfzapp,  but at least with the phone i get to the part where it asks me to accept the ssl cert. the pc just tries and then times out13:00
fzappBoogeyman, you have to see the log details in the router13:00
kronenBluesKaj: i.e. how do I find and install the driver?13:01
fzappBoogeyman, type in one terminal 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' and check logs, open Opera browser and try to access 'www.google.com'13:01
NvveenHmm, it seems overlayfs is favoured against aufs, but does anyone know a way to mount all normal mountpoints (like /home, /boot and ofcourse /) under a directory as Read Only and then a writeable directory on top of them?13:01
NvveenWithout running into the whole "too many layers" error13:02
fzappBoogeyman, in terminal you have to access as root13:02
fzappBoogeyman, or 'sudo su'13:02
BluesKajkronen:  it should be fairly easy for windows drivers , they shold be availbele in the support section on the promise website , as for linux that may take some searching , not sure13:03

fzappBoogeyman, ok, but its blocking for some reason :)13:07
BluesKajkronen:  why not if it's listed13:07
fzappmakezan, it depends to the linux distro13:08
marcmakezan, I think the type isn't explicitly required in the mount command13:08
makezanmarc it requires it for me13:08
makezanfzapp, ubuntu 12.0413:08
makezanI did a format13:08
makezanthe type came back as linux partition 8413:09
makezan*8413:09
makezan*8313:09
marcmakezan, than you need: mount -t ext4 /dev/locationofyourpartition /mountpoint13:09
fzappmakezan, in fdisk you have a complete list to partition types13:09
kronenBluesKaj: doesn't seem to have helped, or changed lspci -vv .  In any case, the problem is that I don't know what exactly the card is, so the promise website isn't very helpful...13:09
makezan   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System13:10
makezan/dev/vdc1            2048    20971519    10484736   83  Linux13:10
Sharif-64hey, how I can upgrade ubuntu from version 11 to 12 or it's not possible ?13:10
Boogeymanwell, i just disconnected and reconnected, irc is still working, but now empathy, skype, and qtorrent wont reconnect13:10
makezanthat's what i mean its tellng me the type is 83 linux, mark and fzapp13:10
=== yx_ is now known as yx
Boogeymanand the browser still says "FU buddy, no webpages for you"13:10
makezanand i can't figure out what is the specific type of file system13:10
marcmakezan, type 83 could be any ext file system13:11
makezanmarc yeah that's where the confusion is13:11
makezanmount -t ext4 won't do it13:11
Boogeymani'm gonna try a reboot and see if that helps any13:12
marcand gparted? won't that tell you more?13:12
MerisI'm looking for a file manager (or plugin) that let's me qeue file transfers13:12
kronenBluesKaj: so there's no way to find out from somethling like lspci what the details of the product/card are?13:12
makezanhttp://pastebin.com/BjYjJt1W13:13
chroot_hi, is there any news readers in ubuntu that let me read news in command line?13:13
makezanmarc and fzapp it won't mount as ext313:13
makezanor 413:14
makezanor 2 for the matter13:14
fzappmakezan, ReiserFS13:14
fzappmakezan, access 'Disk Utility'13:14
fzappType 83 is ReiserFS13:15
llutzchroot_: news as in nntp/usenet? slrn13:15
fzappmakezan, My mounted partition is type 83 too, i'm seeing right now using 'Disk Utility'13:15
Moogshey, cann anyone help me get more space on my dropbox account by refferals?  the link is http://db.tt/0m2njR5v ... not sure if anyone could help me out in this channel or not... thanks :)13:16
makezanoh unfortunately fzapp, this is a server with no gui13:16
fzappmakezan, i'm preety sure is ReiserFS beacuse my Ubuntu has a 83 Linux partition too and is telling is a 'ReiserFS' type13:17
chroot_llutz: but usenet is not free to use,13:17
llutzchroot_: usenet as news-board, not as warez-board13:18
chroot_llutz: i just want to read the world news in command line13:18
fzappmakezan, using fdisk to access your disk controller you may see this list of partition types in some option, I can't remember which is13:18
makezanfzapop thanks i'll try now to look for how to mount it13:18
llutzchroot_: use any cli-browser of your choice then, links, elinks, lynx...13:19
makezanyeah in fdisk i see a list13:19
fzappmakezan, ;)13:19
makezanbut none of them was ext specific, 83 just says linux13:19
chroot_llutz: i have lynx,13:19
adeefzapp: partition type vs. filesystem type. think about it...13:20
kronenok, BluesKaj : It seems the stuff saying promise is just on one of the chips on the card - so it's quite possible I have a VIA VT6410 RAID bus controller, it just uses the Promise PDC20319 chip13:20
chroot_but i doubt that , i.e. i want to go bbc, can lynx work13:20
tkinghello guys, i am trying to kill skype... it says not responding, i tried killing it with kill PROCESS ID it still stays at the status bar, did it rom system monitor still skype wudn't exit13:20
cfhowletttking: kill -9 process ID13:20
livingdaylightcan one change username?13:21
anghelokohi guys, anybody know how to get the size of the post-MBR gap?13:21
kronenBluesKaj: so that could well mean the card is correctly being picked up, but not the hard drive, right?13:21
tkingcfhowlett, thanks, what does the -9 do? why didnt the kill process id work?13:21
anghelokolivingdaylight, usermod -l login-name old-name13:21
Merisangheloko, just look at your disk in (g)parted13:22
BluesKajkronen:  that's what it looks like , you should check th jumper(s)on the hard drive , the setting might be incorrect13:22
cfhowletttking: details @ the man page for "kill" command.  -9 forces the stop13:22
kronenBluesKaj: we don't want to open the box, as it will void our warranty...13:22
makezanadee13:22
livingdaylightangheloko i replace new name with "login-name" ?13:22
kronenBluesKaj: but I'm going to see if I can find options for the card in the BIOS - may be back in a bit...13:23
fzappadee, but 83 is not the filesystem type in partition ? Partition type is Linux13:23
anghelokoMeris, so that'd be the start of my first partion minus 512MB, yes?13:23
=== marc is now known as kristofD
adeefzapp: no13:23
anghelokolivingdaylight, yes13:23
livingdaylightangheloko: cool - thank you!13:23
anghelokolivingdaylight, no.. replace login-name with "your" own new username13:23
Merisangheloko, the MBR is much smaller than 512MB13:24
adeefzapp: http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html - check type 8313:24
livingdaylightangheloko: so, for e.g. usermod -l gimli livingdaylight13:24
makezanadee so if I understand fdisk, just creates the partition to /dev/sd#13:24
anghelokolivingdaylight, yep... assuming gimli is you new username13:25
adeemakezan: yup13:25
livingdaylightangheloko: perfectly clear now - thanks again :)13:25
anghelokoMeris, then this is no easy task then... i was planning on increasing that gap since i am upgrading from GRUB legacy to GRUB213:26
RobertoHi ! I have a question about installing an app manualy, Could you help me ?13:26
anghelokoMeris, i might as well just run gparted13:26
cfhowlettRoberto: details ...13:26
makezanadee and fzap it worked, so fdisk created /dev/sd#, then used mkfs to format it to ext4, and I was trying to mount /dev/sdc/ vs mount /dev/sdc113:26
Merisangheloko, why don't you pastebin the output of parted of the disk you are having troubles with13:27
RobertoI just installed hubiC-browser (something like dropbox|ubuntu one) in /opt. I would like to be able to call it in the term so i putted a symLink in /usr/local/bin13:28
fzappmakezan, but you got lucky, because adee is right13:29
fzapp"Various filesystem types like xiafs, ext2, ext3, reiserfs, etc. all use ID 83."13:29
makezanyeah that's right13:29
bekksThe partition type is irrelevant for filesystems.13:29
fzappmakezan, is fun to get lucky, huahuahua13:30
Robertoproblem is: when I call it I got this error: /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser: 18: /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser: /usr/local/bin//opt/ovh/hubiC-browser/.hubiC-browser-bin: not found13:30
anghelokoMeris, http://pastebin.com/WgeFs68N ... not really having troubles (yet)... just hoping i won't run into problems like this - http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=27470113:31
Robertowhy i try to go to /usr/local/bin//opt/... ?13:31
Roberto*it13:31
bekksRoberto: because you called kn the wrong way.13:31
RobertoI tried symlink and hardlink...13:31
bekksRoberto: You did it wrong :)13:31
bekksln -s /this/is/the/original/file /usr/local/bin/newfile13:32
Merisangheloko, your NTFS partitions are WinXP, right?13:33
anghelokoMeris, yes, win713:33
Robertobekks: hunhun... I tried it before and just tried it again but still don't work... :S13:34
bekksRoberto: whats the full path to your original file?13:35
Robertobekks: sudo ln -s /opt/ovh/hubiC-browser/hubiC-browser /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser13:36
Merisangheloko, Win7? In that case, you can also switch to gpt. I am not sure what the difference in size is between those partition tables, but gpt is the more modern one. Though if you need to access this disk from older OS'es that don't support gpt yet, you best stick with MBR13:36
bekksRoberto: And where is /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser now pointing to? Check it with ls -lha /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser13:36
Robertobekks: seems to be good...13:37
Roberto0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 juil. 28 15:36 /usr/local/bin/hubiC-browser -> /opt/ovh/hubiC-browser/hubiC-browser13:37

Roberto-rwxrwxr-x 1 roberto roberto 359 juil. 12 16:09 /opt/ovh/hubiC-browser/hubiC-browser13:39
bekksRoberto: And how exactly are you trying to invoke that binary then?13:39
Robertobekks: problem is: it seems it find the exec file but this file call an other wich is in /opt/..... but he try to find it in the wrong place13:40
anghelokoMeris, that sounds good since i'm upgrading anyway... oh well, i guess i'll just have to check from gparted... thanks!13:40
bekksRoberto: And how exactly are you trying to invoke that binary then?13:40
Robertobekks: using the terminal13:40
Robertobash13:40
bekksRoberto: And then staring at it? :D Which command exactly are you running?13:40
livingdaylighthow do we apt-get purge in command line an application, please?13:40
Merisangheloko, just be sure to make a backup first, switching to gpt might very well *DESTROY* all your data on your disk13:40

austinHi; I'm trying to fix a friend's wireless, which hangs on boot. It seems that Ubuntu is currently set to attempt to put wireless up manually rather than using network-manager (which is installed).

sirriffsalotHi! I've moved my daily-in-use computer up to the attic, but for some reason I can't get it connected to the internet with 12.04.. I am sitting with an ubuntu-laptop right next to it using the same cable with no problems at all.. I've had this problem for a while, could someone please help figure out what's wrong with my computer?:S15:08
bekksmneptok: We, borg. :)15:08
bazhangekim, that seems like a appropriate driver, get the one without the JRE15:09
bazhang+requirement15:09
Igramulsirriffsalot: In a terminal, does "ifconfig" show the device? If so, has it a valid IP address?15:09
compdocsirriffsalot, on the diu computer, run ifconfig in a terminal. whats the ip address?15:09
mneptokekim: also match the 32 or 64 bit-ness of your installed OS to the driver.15:09
ekimI did get the one without JRE but like I said, it asks for root priviledge password to install.15:10
bazhangekim, double click the extracted .deb and it will ask for the sudo pass15:10
ekimI have the right one downloaded, just cant install without root password.15:10
sirriffsalotAll I see doing ifconfig is eth0 and lo with no ip-adress.. As soon as I connect it, dhcp tries to work things out but keeps failing and goes on for ages15:10
mneptoksirriffsalot: did you set up a static DNS on that machine in an older release?15:11
sirriffsalotTwo days ago, disabling network altogether, then enabling it before plugging the cable in worked, but now that fails too...15:11
ekimbazhang:  yes, I did that but I dont have a root or sudo password!15:11
bazhangekim, no need for the root password, there is none, just use sudo password15:11
Igramulsirriffsalot: Is there actually a DHCP server in Your network?15:11
sirriffsalotmneptok, no idea what that involves, so no..15:11
sirriffsalotIgramul, yes, it works on all other machines..15:11
mneptoksirriffsalot: "sudo dhclient eth0"15:11

jmrogkevin: Perhaps try apt-get install --reinstall <open-source-nvidia-driver> (I don't know the package name)?16:01
Merisakil, good luck! I had a HDD crash just a month ago and I know how it feels. Backup, backup backup...Now if only someone knew a backup program for Linux that works as versatile and well as Cobian Backup...16:01
IgramulMeris: I use crashplan and I'm happy with it.16:02
=== Guest10048 is now known as diamonds
IgramulMeris: But I do not know cobian backup.16:02
MerisIgramul, crashplan eh? Well, I'll be sure to look it up, thx for the suggestion16:02
jmrogUnknown0BC: Sorry, just saw the ELF output you posted earlier. Yeah, you're running a 32-bit executable but trying to use a 64-bit lib, that's probably the issue16:03

diamondsoh it's altgr shift+" u16:04
Boogeyman?16:05
MerisIgramul, because I need more then one backup set, the free version of CrashPlan does not cut it. I'm not adverse to buying software, but I don't subscribe to softs, if I buy a program, it has to be mine indefinetely.16:05
dimosi want to run a php script in apache2(lamp-server localhost @ my desktop) but www-data user can't execute it...it says that it's unable to open the file...any idea?16:05
MerisIgramul, thanks for the suggestion, though16:06
IgramulMeris: If You only need one backup set per machine and if You use Your machines as backup destinations, then the free version will still be fine.16:07
ki4ro_Anyone know how to connect a canon mp280 scanner?  The printer function works great but my machine cannot see the scanner side16:07
Merisdimos, probably something to do with permissions on software level, please consult #apache or #php instead16:07
StevenRki4ro_: probably need scangear from Canon. Not free software though, afaik.16:07
MerisIgramul, as I said before, I need multiple backup sets, but thx anyway.16:08
dimosMeris: with a google seach i read about permissions but i can't fix it...hmm...16:08
* dimos joins #apache16:08
jmrogUnknown0BC: That's fine, but the googleearth-bin file is a 32-bit executable and might not be finding the 32-bit library; the library found via locate is 64-bit16:08
* Unknown0BC blinks16:09
MerisUnknown0BC, try installing ia32-libs to cover for that16:09
jmrogWhat Meris said16:10
usr13 dimos Maybe you need to change ownership or permissions of the file?16:11
Unknown0BCjmrog, Meris , weird I install the 64bit but when I look at the exec file its a 32bit.16:11
* Unknown0BC frowns16:11
ki4ro_StevenR: Got scangearmp installed but it cannot see the scanner either16:11
usr13Unknown0BC: Mystery solved....16:11
jmrog^16:12
dimosusr13: i tried with: sudo chown www-data script.php - but nothing happens...16:12
StevenRki4ro_: no idea then16:12
MerisUnknown0BC, might be a bad link, if you are sure that the package is marked as 64-bit and it is exactly the same as the 32-bits version, better report it to the one who manages the package.16:12
usr13ki4ro_: sane-find-scanner16:13
usr13dimos: You would have needed to be in the directory where it is, or use full path.16:13
usr13dimos: But not really sure that is the issue for sure.  You might find more detailed info in the log file16:14
ki4ro_usr13: Found it16:14
dimosusr13: i check with ls -la...the file seams ownw to www-data...but this is a good idea! let's see the log file...16:15
usr13dimos: /var/log/httpd/error_log16:15

vicium\aHas anyone tried running a wmware windows inside of ubutu 11+ ?16:27
animus123please help..16:28
vicium\aOr perhaps a vmware ubuntu 11+ runs better on win? :P16:28
bekksvicium\a: Ermm - It doesnt matter what you are running inside a vm.16:28
vicium\aSo they both work equally 'great' ?16:29
vicium\aAssuming i have the horsepower16:29
bekksvicium\a: I'd recommend virtualbox instead of vmware, unless using an ESX host.16:29
hylianhello all16:29
vicium\abekks: It works like vmware more or less?16:30
bekksvicium\a: Yes.16:30
vicium\aOnly x86?16:30
bekksvicium\a: 32bit and 64bit.16:30
bekksvicium\a: Or get it as Oracle VM Server on SPARC.16:30
BadDesignI want to run adb from ~/Software/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools but when I do so it says No such file or directory ... I cd into the directory and ls -l I see the file there ,.. I say ./adb devices and No such file and directory, WTF?16:30
escottvicium\a, you have a number of open source virtualization options including virtualbox as well as kvm and xen. vmware is probably less popular in this channel because of those other options16:31
escottBadDesign, is it marked executable? and what is the exact command you are trying to execute16:32
hylianBadDesign: To be honest, I have never messed with any of that, is there a chance you need root priveleges to run it, or is it on a non compatable partition type? i.e. needs to be in ext4, but is in ntfs, etc...?16:32
BadDesignescott: hylian: there permission are -rwxrwxr-x for the adb command16:32
vicium\aHmm okay :) well I'm gonna run the VB in windows (but that didnt matter right? and then run ubuntu inside) shouldnt be an issue right? just get vb + the most recent stable ubuntu iso?16:32
hylianBadDesign: escott is much more adept at these things then I, I would follow his advice...16:32
BadDesignhylian: The files are in my home directory, its the Android SDK, I don;t need root priviledges to run it16:33
escottvicium\a, there may be minor performance differences but it shouldn't matter. running ubuntu inside a windows vm might be better for desktop usage because of graphics drivers and related issues16:33
vicium\aYeah figured and when i actually play games i can play them in natural... enviroments, instead of vming.. Since my ubunt usuage isnt very performance heavy16:34
BadDesignSomething really strange is going on here16:34
vicium\aThanks for the pointers16:34
vicium\aCan i netinstall with VB? or iso required i assume?16:34
escottBadDesign, is adb an elf executable or is it a java program?16:34
hylianBadDesign: I am going to do a little research and see what i come up with, brb. :)16:34
righthandofdoomgreetings16:35

Viciumoops, back.. VM network stuff installed.. But I need an iso right?16:35
animus123somebody help me?16:35

=== Vicium is now known as vicium\a
spacemanmplayer is normally a good place to start16:39
hyliananimus123: what color are the lines, and what happens if you try to run the same videos through programs such as mplayer or totem?16:39
animus123spaceman:i tried it with default movie player.but no response.same thing was happening..16:39
bekksvicium\a: You should use the official vbox version from www.virtualbox.org - and yes, you need an ISO of the OS you want to install as a guest.16:40
Balaskrighthandofdoom: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-I0jCIFyc416:40

spacemananimus123: what kind of video is it, mp4, avi or what. If so do have the dependencies installed for that kind of video.16:41

LoganGrayhi everyone.  Quicky question.  Is nano installed by default on ubuntu server?16:41
righthandofdoomok i did that.ok, is there a way to install the old menu we had in ubuntu ~1016:42

trismBadDesign: are you on a 64 bit system?16:42
Balaskrighthandofdoom:  I have no idea16:42
BadDesigntrism: yes16:42
trismBadDesign: you probably don't have the i386 libs (it gives that strange no such file or directory error otherwise)16:43
hylianBadDesign: that is strange.. could there be a nameless folder in the path?16:43
righthandofdoomwould i have to revert to an earlier version of gnome?16:43
BadDesigntrism: hmm, I remember installing them16:43
animus123hylian:well,every time they have different colors16:43
LoganGrayThanks ThinkT510  -- find it odd that a VPS provider didn't have it installed already - and when I did an apt-get to install it - man, it installed a ton of stuff - including dependencys I'm sure it didn't need.16:43

exutuxtondar33: so in your host sudo adduser $USER vboxusers then restart lxdm17:20
hylianarvislacis: i like lshw. but it's run in the terminal, and can really dump way too much info, so i use this command: sudo lshw > info. this dumps all the info into a text file named info in your /home/(your username) directory17:20
i7cis there a way to do sudo cat asdf.xyz > /etc/need-root.asdf   ? because that way it does not work and i dont want to sudo su everytime17:20
killerGuest53376 : is ur ubuntu a fresh installation17:21
tondar33exutux, let me get clear.. i just added my host user infront of the virtualbox group, but i have to add a specific user for it as well?17:22
exutuxtondar33: nope your actual user that run VirtualBox17:22
hylianarvislacis: if you used the command I gave you, you will notice that there is a lot of info in that file it created, you want to look for the word "display".17:23
tondar33exutux, you mean my host user, i manually added it to etc/group, isnt that correct?17:23
exutuxtondar33: if you have other user that need to use vbox, so yes you have to add all them17:23
exutuxtondar33: nope, I said you the command for to it correctly17:24
tondar33exutux, ok thanks :)17:24

jeffreyGuest51281, thanks ill check it out17:57
herpladeebekks, how do i know if it does?17:57
tgm4883bekks, ironically, I figured it out 10 seconds after asking that after been working on it for a few days17:57
Guest51281jeffrey, anytime - have fun!17:57
tgm4883bekks, mkfs wouldn't work, because I put the image on the drive with no partitions17:58
tgm4883bekks, fdisk didn't see it, couldn't format it with gparted or disk utility either17:58
bekkstgm4883: mkfs doesnt need a partition, but a block device only.17:58
bekkstgm4883: And when fdisk does not see it, it isnt even detected as a block device.17:59
tgm4883bekks, actually, I think there may be a bug i fdisk17:59
bekkstgm4883: Unplug it, wait 10s, plug it back in, wait 10s, and use sudo fdisk -l17:59
bekksfdisk without sudo does not see anything.17:59
tgm4883bekks, yea that didn't work either17:59

bekksosse: By using smbmount.18:01
tgm4883bekks, luckily I had only pushed a 1GB img file to the drive, I went into disk utility and formatted the other half as ext4. As soon as I did that, I was able to format the entire drive however I wanted18:01

greenithi, my wifi connection speed is very slow... normally i have a rate from 6+mb/s in my local network, but now it is only 400kb/s ... can any1 help me get my wireless network speedy again?^^ would also be good if any1 can tell me a command to get out my network card18:12
Barnabasgreenit, have any neighbors started using the same channel as you?18:13
greenitBarnabas, nope18:13
Bhalashgreenit: Could be any number of umpteen things. A good culprit is a competing wifi network.18:13
greeniti think it is because the kernel-update18:13
greeniti installed the driver for my card again, but it is by far not as fast as before18:14

ossebekks, for the record, after some googling it seems there is a bug in 12.04. Several people have the same problem as me18:21

Barnabasgreenit, this is quite good too allthough it is flash http://www.speedtest.net/18:24

tgm4883greenit, Barnabas it's on the same lan, plug in, see if it works. If it does, then roll back the update and see if it fixes the wifi18:24
tshirtmani tried acpi=off too, doesn't help… :(18:24
Bhalashtgm4883: greenit is reporting connection woes. I was half-assedly suggesting that he set his fileserver up for web-facing access and compare download speeds for X file versus his local network.18:24
greenitBhalash, nope, i rly connect to my local server via lan, not wan^^18:25
bekksgreenit: Then dyndns isnt involved at all.18:25
tgm4883Bhalash, no, greenit is saying his download speeds are slow, when connecting to a machine on his same LAN. I'm unsure why you think setting it up to go to the internet would be A) easier, and B) make it any faster18:25
Barnabasgreenit, do you have a server on the LAN (wired) side of the hot spot18:25
greenitbekks, i know, thats why i asked if he thought that i am connected via dyndns ;)18:26

bekksfurycd001: There is nothing like that for openbox.18:32
Bhalashfurycd001: If you really want something inclusive, you could install gnome 2.* and load gnome-panel on its own.18:32
Barnabastgm4883, maybe ..18:32
tgm4883furycd001, would AWN work for you http://wiki.awn-project.org/18:32
furycd001tgm4883: ive used awn before but dont really like it...18:33
tgm4883Barnabas, if you aren't willing to do that, then unless the user brings up the idea of wireshark it's probably reckless to be suggesting that to people in #ubuntu18:33
Bhalashfurycd001: Try gnome-panel, or look into utilizing Openbox's excellent extensibility. I run each app full screen on its own desktop and bind everything to the keyboard. tgm4883's suggestion of AWN works too.18:33

tgm4883Barnabas, nothing better? You mean like actually troubleshooting steps such as isolating the issue?18:35
tgm4883Yea I'm pretty sure I did suggest that18:35
Bhalashfurycd001: You can load it individually by adding "gnome-panel &" to ./config/openbox/autostart18:35

Barnabastgm4883, the court is all yours18:36
david028xhi trying to install ubuntu 11.10 from dvd on a hp g6. I just get the ubuntu default background with no foreground interface or installation menu. Just a cursor. What can I try next?18:36
tgm4883Barnabas, I've already suggested ideas that the user said he can't/won't do.18:37
Barnabastgm4883, as I said18:37
Bhalashdavid028x: Is it a Canonical-supplied DVD or one you burnt yourself?18:38
rodneymillerpcaOk next question. My desktop thinks it has a laptop display. It is in 1024x768 (4:3) How do I loose the 4:3?18:38
tgm4883Barnabas, I'll I'm telling you is, don't just tell people to go do something that they are unfamiliar with unless you plan to A) tell them what they should be looking for or B) look at it for them18:38
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, that doesn't make sense, what is the native resolution of your monitor?18:38
david028xBhalash: I burnt it myself using gb.releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ and varified18:38
rodneymillerpcaAgreed. Normaly 1024 x 76818:39
qmrany of you guys in or around NJ?18:39
tshirtmanany help for hibernation ? my system won't poweroff after s2disk same from hibernate, pm-hibernate, or from menu18:39
Bhalashdavid028x: To explicitly confirm: You downloaded the ISO, burnt it and confirmed that the MD5 sum matches?18:39
rodneymillerpcaIt seems to be giving me stretching or zoomed sizes18:39
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Try here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution/18:39
david028xBhalash: I downloaded the iso, windows 7 burned it after opening the iso and I checked varify after burning as an option and it came out complete18:40

tgm4883rodneymillerpca, if the native resolution of your monitor is 1024x768 and your currently running at 1024x768, and that is a 4:3 resolution, then I don't see the problem18:41
Bhalashdavid028x: Okay. I ask because your problem honestly sounds like faulty installation media. Could you try to burn a new CD, and confirm the MD5?18:41
david028xBhalash: ok sure thanks il give that a go and come back if i have any more problems :)18:42
bekksDangerousICE: http://dtbaker.com.au/random-bits/ubuntu---howto-easily-setup-raid-5-with-lvm.html18:42
Bhalashdavid028x: If the problem persists, consider a different installation format, such as a USB key. MD5 after download, and MD5 after burning.18:43
DangerousICEbekks: thank you. i kept googling but couldn't find how to set up on existing installation.18:43
rodneymillerpcaI'm a rookie Bhalash. lol18:43
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Are you burning this DVD in Windows or Linux?18:43
rodneymillerpcatgm4883 It has everything bloated likes it 800x60018:44
rodneymillerpcaNo dvd for me18:44
bekksDangerousICE: That guide is for adding an additional RAID5 softwara raid, for using it as a data volume.18:44
Bhalashdavid028x: An MD5 sum is a hashed number generated by an algorithm. It is the "digital fingerprint" of the file.18:44
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Sorry, meant that for someone else. :)18:45
Bhalashdavid028x: If the file changes (is corrupted during download or burning), it's fingerprint/MD5 sum changes.18:45
DangerousICEbekks: thats exactly what i need. the raid is just gonna hold my media files for xbmc18:45
Bhalashdavid028x: Canonical's download page has the MD5 hash of every file there. After you download it, you look at the MD5. If it has changed, the file is corrupt. Ditto after burning. If the MD5 of the DVD is different, then it was corrupted during burning.18:46
blzDangerousICE, a fellow XBMC-er I see =)18:47
livingdaylightWhat is the deal with pulling usb's on installation restart? Using discs we are prompted to but it seems on usb installs we are not18:47
r0thalivingdaylight: well i mean if you feel that annoyed by it18:47
r0thawhy not start writing some code for the installer to check for usb vs. disc usage18:47
r0thait is after all...........fweeeeee18:48
Robitronhello.  is this the support chat?18:48
r0thaRobitron: just ask the question18:48
blzRobitron, yes it is =)18:48
r0thaRobitron: (please don't take that negatively, it was said kindly )18:48
Robitronokay, i'm trying to install ubuntu but i keep getting a signal out of range message on reload.  the problem is, i've checked every site i could find and everyone is saying to change this code and that.18:49
tgm4883r0tha, I don't think that is what he was saying, I think it's more, "why aren't we told to do remove it when installing from USB"18:49
yoyoyo_#drupal-commerce18:49
Robitroni don't know anything about coding. so i'm totally lost.  :(18:49
livingdaylightr0tha: i didn't mean to imply that I am annoyed by it. Sorry, if that is how it translates over the net. I just meant to ask how, and at what point do I remove the usb? Should I try and time it as it reboots and just pull it out? That feels violent and I don't want to get it wrong18:49
DangerousICEbekks: been using xbmc since it first came out for old school xbox. had it running with windows 7 but decided to come back to linux.18:49
r0thalivingdaylight: sorry i'm just not reading between the lines18:49
roothorickRobitron: how old is your monitor? And how is it connected?18:49
r0thatad ummmm18:49
r0thasleepy18:49
tgm4883livingdaylight, that sounds like a bug and should be reported on launchpad18:49
blzRobitron,  have you tried changing the code as they prescribed?18:49
tgm4883livingdaylight, but to answer your question, just pull it when the system is at BIOS18:50
livingdaylighttgm4883:"... but to answer your question, just pull it when the system is at BIOS" ok, thank you!18:51
marian_hi18:51
rodneymillerpcaI tried lxrandr It still has my 1024x768 looking bloated like 800x60018:52
roothorickRobitron: 90% of the time that happens because you're using an ancient/crappy monitor that doesn't support EDID, or a damaged cable so the EDID signal isn't coming back18:52
rodneymillerpcaWOuld it be a gnome, ubuntu, driver, or ? setting?18:53
roothorickthis rsync is taking forever :/18:53
help2manI have noticed you have alot of different programs in your ubuntu repo's but I was wondering how ubuntu went about setting this up. Did alot of the software get mirrored over from gnu/fsf/savannah 60,000 projects ... because I cann't imagine all that could was written from scratch by ubuntu ?18:54
help2mansince alot of software when I go thru it in ubuntu is also in gnu repos18:54
help2manI guess is there away to determine or only view the software that is different then the gnu /fsf /savannah ,....etc already built code that was just mirrored over the stuff that was created new for ubuntu18:56
rodneymillerpcaBhalash tgm4883Any idea on how to loose the 4:318:56
Myrttihelp2man: debian.18:57
roothorickhelp2man: most of Ubuntu is just outside FOSS projects with the occasional patch. It's the Linux way and all that. A LOT of it is copied from Debian though.18:57
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Rigorous exercise? Er, I mean. I tuned out of this discussion. Did you try the steps given here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution/18:57
rodneymillerpcaBhalash rofl. That page is a bit over my head. I did get the lxrandr gui but ti still adds the zoomed in 4:318:59
help2manok but is there away to see only new ubuntu specific software I would image there is some new software that is not all FOSS  or in debian repo just copied over... since if this is the case you could have just used debians repos for your os18:59
tgm4883help2man, what exactly are you trying to accomplish?18:59
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Okay, so. From the top: What resolution is your monitor *supposed* to support? Is it a desktop monitor or laptop?19:00
greenitok, so after testing my wireless connection with netperf and netload, i can say, that only receive is a problem... i am sending with up to 55 mbit/s and receiving with up to 1.1 mbit/s .... thats very slow :/19:01
help2manknowing exactly what software and around about number of projects that are ubuntu specific and not already done or copied over from debian / gnu / ,,,other repos19:01
roothorickhelp2man: there's only a handful of Ubuntu specific stuff, Unity, Software Center... I think that's it. And even those have their own project pages and stuff19:01
rodneymillerpcaBhalash It is a desktop that thinks it is a laptop. It is normally simple 1024x76819:01
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Okay, 1024x768 is a 4:3 ratio. So what's the problem? What resolution is it in fact displaying?19:02
tgm4883help2man, how would you account for stuff that originally started in Ubuntu and was then pushed to the debian repos?  That software would appear that it comes from debian now19:02
rodneymillerpcaTo me it loks like a bloated 800x60019:03
roothorickhelp2man: I think the situation is a lot more complicated than you realize. FOSS is quite a bit more interconnected19:03
help2manok I see so most of these linux distros that have alot of different software in there repo's didn't could it they just used it from debian major repos , or redhat major repo , and for slackware ones maybe gnu ...and mirrored them19:03
help2mancould =code19:03
roothorickrodneymillerpca: 1024x768 is kinda tiny for a desktop resolution by today's standards, I'd kinda expect ubuntu to look a little off19:03
tgm4883roothorick, yea, i'm not entirely sure what he's trying to figure out19:03
stevensudo apt-get install utube ripper19:04
stevenguyss i nees some helpp!19:04
rodneymillerpcaBhalash Currently it is displaying 1024x768 (3:4) I'm looking for just simple 1024x76819:04
stevenok nobody willing to help... :(19:05
roothorickrodneymillerpca: 1024x768 *IS* 4:319:05
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: I am sorry, but I do not understand you. 1024x768 *is* a 4:3 ratio.19:05
DanCmy gnome session was getting kinda messed up so I re-created my home directory and re-ran tasksel; now I can't get my nvidia graphics working19:05
help2manso really the distros companies work on just either changing the desktop or user interfaces , or modifying a vannila kernel or both, and mirroring the big repo's over , as well as maybe writing a few specific apps like ubuntu's control center19:05
roothorickrodneymillerpca: it's an aspect ratio. Key word here being RATIO. 256*4 = 1024, 256*3 = 76819:05
tgm4883help2man, so a few times during the ubuntu dev cycle, there is a sync from the debian repos (testing I believe), there are some patches that get added for the Ubuntu repos. Some software isn't in debian for various reasons and has been added to the Ubuntu repos though the traditional process19:05
rodneymillerpcaBhalash ok lets try this a diferent way. what exactly is the 4:3? Is it like a zoom or something?19:06
tgm4883help2man, that is simplifying it a bit, but yea19:06
DanCthe suggestions on this page don't quite work for me. http://askubuntu.com/questions/66339/how-do-i-solve-this-nvidia-driver-download-error19:06
Barnabasrodneymillerpca, width/height ratio19:06
rodneymillerpcaAh ok roothorick beat me to it.19:06
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, 4:3 simply means that given a pixel, there are 4 pixels horizontally for every 3 pixels vertically19:06
VanKushhello folks, please, I need an usb power up issue fixed... on Lenovo S205, Ubuntu Precise 64bit, I only get 1 out of 3 physical usb slots powered up. Here is the dmesg output http://paste.ubuntu.com/1116112/19:07
DanCI continue to get WARNING: /sys/module/nvidia_current/drivers does not exist, cannot rebind nvidia_current driver19:07
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: It is an aspect ratio. Divide 1024 by 4 and multiply it by 3: You get 768. For every 4 pixels across (x), you get 3 down (y). It is 1024 x pixels and 768 y pixels.19:07
roothorickrodneymillerpca: think of aspect ratios like classes of resolutions that are different sizes but the same shape19:07
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Answer me this in as many words: What *should* the screen resolution ideally be. What is it now?19:07
help2mangotcha , I would imagine there are peoples jobs just to test the debian software works on ubuntu when you mirrored it over19:07
roothorickhelp2man: more like volunteers mostly take care of that19:08
help2manand in most cases that shouldn't be an issue but I am assuming somebody is payed to check19:08
roothorickhelp2man: most distros don't have any kind of corporate backing, it's just a couple of dedicated hobbyists putting something together19:08
rodneymillerpcaOk let me explain it better this way maybe. After upgrading 2 days ago to this Ubuntu It seems my screen is magnifying things (less desktop real state)19:09
roothorickubuntu, redhat/fedora, suse, are rather special in that regard19:09
roothorickrodneymillerpca: what were you running before?19:09
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Screenshot, please. Can you screenshot in Windows (assuming a dual boot) and screenshot in Linux.19:09
help2manso if ubuntu is free and a community thing I have always wonder how non-profit companies can stay in business like gnu , ubuntu , fsf ,..ya you can get donation but to pay every employ to survive I cann't see that always guarenteed to cover ?19:09
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Don't take this the wrong way, but you haven't a clue what you are talking about, and right now a screenshot of the problem will greatly help me identify it.19:10
rodneymillerpcaI can. I am pure Ubuntu. Windows no more.19:10
tgm4883help2man, ubuntu isn't a non-profit, gnu and fsf etc have donations19:10
rodneymillerpcaok screenshot I can do19:10
zykotick9help2man: ubuntu is NOT a free/community distro - it's a business19:10
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: Thank you. Also, can you supply me the make and model of monitor and video card?19:10
roothorickhelp2man: Ubuntu kinda exists in a weird middle state. They have backing from a major non-profit (Canonical) but there's still a lot of hobbyist work that goes into it19:11
tgm4883roothorick, canonical isn't a non-profit19:11
roothorickoh it isn't? my bad19:11
tgm4883roothorick, not even close19:11
roothorickwait... where's the business model?19:11
tgm4883roothorick, same as redhat, support19:11
roothorickinteresting19:12
tgm4883they also have ubuntu one19:12
melyciao19:12
roothorickhelp2man: well there you have it. They give the software away for free, then offer premium support to other businesses19:12
kingofswordshi19:12
help2manroothorick "help2man: most distros don't have any kind of corporate backing, it's just a couple of dedicated hobbyists putting something together"  then for ubuntu if that was true there really shouldn't be much coding to do to create this...since a few people only equal a few man years of work :) ... so these billions of software already must have existed and they just touch up the kernel , and made the desktop look nice, add a few19:12
help2manapps , and market it very well to appeal to most19:12
tgm4883roothorick, they have consumer support too19:12
bazhang!ot | help2man19:13

rodneymillerpcarofl. I hate change. lol19:13
kingofswordsrooot, why not?19:13
roothorickkingofswords: I'd wager you were suspending (to RAM) and not actually shutting down19:14
kingofswordsrooot, ssd drive...maybe 20 secs i dunno....does it matter?19:14
help2manok one last thing before I move the discussion. help2man: well there you have it. They give the software away for free, then offer premium support to other businesses ..... how can they be certain enough business will uses and pay for support .. that is not guarenteed ???19:15
bekkskingofswords: That long? :)19:15
bazhanghelp2man, thats enough19:15
tgm4883help2man, um, thats how businesses work?19:15
roothorickkingofswords: honestly, if you don't want to wait, you should probably just suspend to RAM instead of shutting down19:15
XiRoNHow can I make it so a user can ONLY read,write and execute in their OWN home directory and no where else.19:15
roothorickXiRoN: if they can't execute anything outside their home directory, they can't do... anything, really.19:16
kingofswordsrooot, point is the boot up time has suddenly changed to a really long time19:16
bekksXiRoN: Thats the default, besides /tmp19:16
roothorickXiRoN: chroot might be a better solution to whatever it is you're cooking19:16

rodneymillerpcaI was just going to suggest left click and view. thank you19:19
XiRoNanother questions, how can I whitelist only 1 IP to connect to an SSH server?19:19

tgm4883rodneymillerpca, do you need to install proprietary drivers?19:25
vigneshmoharoothorick: i disabled firewall already19:25
roothorickvigneshmoha: it sounds suspect to me. It's either firewall or a routing table issue. End of story, there isn't anything else that could interfere.19:26

roothorickrodneymillerpca: well, that's just how big things are at 1024x768, by default at least. You could try playing with icon size and what not19:28
rodneymillerpcaVanKush low power from power pack19:28
VanKushrodneymillerpca: can I fix this?19:28

tgm4883like making them smaller19:29
r00terHello I need a litte help with ACPI extensions and grub19:30
r00terI cant shutdown my computer properly19:30
roothorickVanKush: some devices just do goofy crap like that. Have you tried a different USB stick?19:31
rodneymillerpcaIt could be tgm4883. It just seems to me the screen is magnified or amplified.19:31
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, but what we are trying to tell you is that is isn't19:31
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, you are just used to stuff being super small19:31
roothorickrodneymillerpca: the thing is, Ubuntu is optimized for typical screen sizes of today, which tend to start at 1366x768 and only go up. 1024x768 is rather small.19:32
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, if you want to make things smaller again, you'll probably want to lookup how to change the DPI19:32
rodneymillerpcaANother way to explain it also is in firefox I use to see my whole home page.19:32
Bhalashrodneymillerpca: roothorick http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_display.asp19:33

Raydiationis there a way to group the imap inboxes in evolution?19:34
zykotick9rodneymillerpca: i'm guessing you used to use a higher resolution.  2 questions: 1) what video card is this "lspci | grep -i vga" if unsure 2) is this a CRT or LCD monitor?19:34
roothorickVanKush: I've seen a flaw in some laptops and motherboards where they can't actually deliver the current they're required to by the USB spec. So your phone is drawing all the current it's legally allowed to by the standard but your mobo can't take it, most likely19:35
Bhalashzykotick9: The monitor appears to be a Gateway-branded Proview 786n. That /should/ support up to 1280x1024.19:35
roothorickVanKush: try topping off your battery first and see if it's better behaved then19:35
zykotick9Bhalash: well - that answer one of my questions ;)  i'm guessing 1280x1024 would be a lot more reasonable then 1024x76819:36
tgm4883Bhalash, well that is probably the issue then. He needs to be at 1280x1024 instead of 1024x76819:36
rodneymillerpcaNvidia geforse 6150se19:36
Bhalashzykotick9: 1024x768 is a fallback resolution because virtually everything supports it.19:36
tgm4883that would make the icons appear smaller19:36

roothorickrodneymillerpca: 17" is *tiny*. You can't even get a new monitor smaller than 19" today.19:36

roothorickrodneymillerpca: Another theory: Ubuntu wasn't respecting the DPI from the EDID in 11.10 and now it is, and now things are the "right" size on your itty bitty monitor19:37

Robitroni'm not using a tv.  i'm using a dell monitor.19:39
tgm4883zykotick9, I doubt that will help, since he isn't using unity19:39

rodneymillerpcaomg how in the world do you copy from the terminal. aparently control c and right click are a no go19:40
roothoricktgm4883: Compiz didn't work period, no games worked, Flash would crash whatever browser you're using, nothing that called anything GL worked correctly, if at all19:40
zykotick9tgm4883: it's the nvidia driver with a 6150 (in comments) i'm trying to highlight19:40
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, right click should work, or use pastebinit19:41
Bhalashroothorick: rodneymillerpca Would this work? xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024 --rate 6019:41

Guest26983 /msg nickserv identify19:42
roothorickzykotick9: no, my driver *WAS* working. There was a genuine problem with a certain nV driver and 6xxx chips19:42
wildmanne39Robitron, did you get my message?19:42
roothorickzykotick9: I'm good now though, they rolled out an update that fixed it eventually19:42

Beetonhello, I'm having trouble booting a live cd of Ubuntu 12.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1525. It shows a small keyboard symbol and a person in a circle for a while, does nothing else, then eventually switches to text mode with a kernel panic saying it can't mount the root fs19:42
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, then use pastebinit19:42
zykotick9roothorick: i'm not talking about nv (that's deprecated) - it's nouveau or propritary at this point ;)19:42
roothorickzykotick9: I'm talking about the nvidia binary driver. 295.40 would barf all over itself on a 6xxx19:43
roothorickzykotick9: It had to do with a security patch destroying compatibility with certain older chipsets19:43
Robitronthe only option i see before it goes to that flashing message is my boot options.19:43
zykotick9roothorick: ahhh. gotcha.  don't have that hardware ;)19:43

rodneymillerpcapastebinit?19:44
rodneymillerpcaRookie here. lol19:44
roothorickzykotick9: because it would see the nV chip and try to use Unity which would just crash and leave the user with nothing19:44
tgm4883rodneymillerpca, yes, it's a program that will put it to pastebin for you19:44
zykotick9!pastebinit | rodneymillerpca19:44
rodneymillerpcaok without adding more programs. How do I do the roothorick: rodneymillerpca Would this work? xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024 --rate 6019:44

kevinhi all. so i was recently using the open source nvidia driver, and then i "dpkg -i" 'd an nvidia-current package. didn't work, so i removed it from recovery console. rebooted into open source nvidia driver, and now the resolution is alllll minimal. used to run at 1650x??? or whatever tahat resolution was... now xrandr is reporting the max is 1280x720. any ideas?19:57
roothorickMurd0ck: There's guides abound online. Try "Ubuntu live persistence file" in google19:57
Murd0ckcan I install it on one usb drive and hope from computer to computer?19:57

rodneymillerpcakevin and I in same boat?19:57
roothorickthe persistence file is on the USB drive so it falls that drive around19:57

StoneCypherAcidRain2012: the other end is still at 300.21:17
SlingAcidRain2012: fix your connectivity issue instead21:17
StoneCypherAcidRain2012: you have to have control of both ends for that to even make sense, before you consider whether it's a good idea21:17
AcidRain2012its not the timeout issue. its the issue that it wont connect after the timeout21:17
AcidRain2012i have control of the router21:17
AcidRain2012its mine21:17
AcidRain2012some said it was a network traffic to heavy. but i disabled everything, and it will stsill only stay connected for about 6hrs before it drops and wont reconnect21:18
AcidRain2012if 6 hrs21:18
BluesKajguess I joined in the middle of this discussion ..I'll back off21:18
bekksAcidRain2012: Then configure your router for reconnectinig to the internet or not dropping connection after a timeout.21:19
bekksIt isnt a TCP problem really.21:19
SlingAcidRain2012: so your router has internet connectivity, but the connection between your pc and router gets disconnected?21:19

ubuuutuhelpMadMike: When I try to log into Ubuntu, no top panel or launch menu appears. Just a blank desktop. I can right-click the desktop and logout via alt+control+delete but thats it.22:05
MadMikeSo you can see the login-screen before but you can't see anything after you typed the password?22:06
Dr_willisubuuutuhelp,  as a test, try making a new user via the console and see if that user can login correctly.22:06

ubuuutuhelpMadmike: Correct22:06
ubuuutuhelpDr_willis: Sounds good brb.22:07
Dr_willisubuuutuhelp,  i also seem to recall similer problem people mention  and it has to do with the .Xauthority file22:07
adeeSockPants: also, win7 creates a little partition for system stuff. did you cloned that too?22:07
glitsj16amanjosan2008: in linux you can track file creation with inotifywait (from the inotify-tools package) .. pretty easy once you get familiar with syntax and logic .. http://linuxaria.com/article/introduction-inotify?lang=en is just a quick intro, lots more on websearch i guess22:08
SockPantsadee: i didn't, i'm now trying to boot that off the old disk over usb to see if i can use it to repair the new disk.22:09
richtroyebekks synaptic apparently doesn't have a way to specify mirrors.  Would you mind having a look yourself for that particular url I specified, to see if you can find it on any mirror?  I did a synaptic update and got the same problem.22:10
adeeSockPants: without that little partition, i doubt that is going to work ever........22:10
MadMikeadee, I've heard you will only need that 100 MByte parition if you have a encrypten Windows parition.22:10
SockPantsadee: it's a recovery partition...22:11

jason_hudsonHello everyone, I'm having a problem with the swap partition not being mounted on ubuntu 12.04 (32 bit), the partition is in a LVM and the error I'm getting is "the partition can't be mounted press S to skip M to manually recover" is there anything I could do?22:11
richtroyebekks that's good to know.  Is it a gui thing (and if so, what dropdown menu?) or do I need to give some option to a command-line invocation?22:12
bekksrichtroye: Take a look at Settings -> Repositories -> Download from22:12
SockPantsadee: the recovery partition on the old drive, connected via usb, has now succesfully fixed the boot manager and boot options on the new internal drive and i can now boot without the old drive :)22:12

buryalu22:27
lemarczykotick9>tried it, it says connection timed out.. vbox shows i am connected to internet via wired connection but on my host i am connected via wifi22:27
zykotick9lemarc: you might need to change the network settings in vbox.  sorry i forget what the options for vbox are, but there should be something like "shared" or something (give the same IP as your network, instead of being NATed)22:29

Dr_willisvcamps,  pinguy has its own support channels and forums.22:39
mintit just... stopped,  no error messages, nothing, I checked and nothing had been changed, this happened twice22:39

mintalright.22:39

uni4dfxScrivener Well they're either off or it cannot detect them for some reason. It could be the driver is shitty.22:40

ScrivenerSeriously? =.=22:40

ScrivenerWell, figures. It drops the network now and then, anyways, and it won't reconnect without me unplugging and re-inserting the NIC.22:42
ScrivenerWhich is a USB adapter.22:42
Dr_willisvcamps,  pinguy is not supported by this channel. I suggest using normal ubuntu If you want support here.22:42
ScrivenerMaybe I should just buy an internal NIC -.-22:42
ScrivenerWell, erm, wifi.22:43

uni4dfxScrivener do some research on the driver it's using. There could be a solution, or at least you'll find someone with the same problem.22:43
