[21:10] <nothingspecial> djohn: That`s ubuntu, they "try" to make it easy
[21:10] <Phareouh> will the boot loader shows up , i shows the first option and it runs
[21:10] <Phareouh> and this is the outcome
[21:10] <Soothsayer> what does ./validate do ?
[21:10] <SianaGearz> when he gets back, he should be told to scavenge at least a 20gb harddrive somewhere. should be able to get one for free.
[21:10] <noname> dark3lf:guid me plz
[21:11] <Phareouh> ah Note : when i tried the low graphics in Recovery mode
[21:11] <dark3lf> naname, just install compiz in synaptic
[21:11] <djohn> nothingspecial, do you also know if the partition manager in the cli install can install to a free partition i've prepared and not just wipe the whole drive?
[21:11] <Phareouh> it run
[21:11] <dstaubsauger> SianaGearz: wow where can i get 20 gb laptop hdds for free? :D
[21:11] <Phareouh> Over
[21:11] <Phareouh> :)
[21:11] <noname> dark3lf:i did but still not work
[21:11] <nothingspecial> djohn: Yes it can, it`s pretty much the same options as the gui one
[21:11] <djohn> awesome :D
[21:11] <noname> i installed compiz and advanced manger settings aswell*
[21:12] <SianaGearz> dstaubsauger: uhm... friendly junk shop?
[21:12] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, while I'm looking, try this: sudo rmmod iwlagn; sudo modprobe iwlagn
[21:12] <Phareouh> hellooooo
[21:12] <guntbert> noname: you need at least the vmware tools in the guest
[21:12] <dstaubsauger> SianaGearz: :P
[21:12] <dark3lf> noname, you need to run it
[21:12] <noname> dark3lf:how can i do that
[21:13] <mae_tae> hello people
[21:13] <dark3lf> noname, its like running a program, just execute it
[21:13] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, done.. and now?
[21:13] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, no output?
[21:13] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, the command preoduce zero output
[21:13] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: I missed you. Are you booting to a blank screen, or the cli (in the sense that it offers you a login and you can use your computer)?
[21:13] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, okay.  Does iwconfig show wlan0?
[21:13] <noname> dark3lf:ok man thx for ur help
[21:13] <noname> :)
[21:13] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, yes
[21:13] <SianaGearz> Soothsayer: depends on your current working directory. unless there is a validate program in there, you get an error message :)
[21:14] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, now what does sudo ifconfig wlan0 up do?
[21:14] <Soothsayer> SianaGearz: its expected to be a shell script ?
[21:14] <SianaGearz> and if there is one... then ask where you got that :)
[21:14] <Phareouh> ah no the Command Promot on Ttnty 1
[21:14] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, the same as last time: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132
[21:14] <Phareouh> and ask me for user name and pass
[21:14] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, :(
[21:14] <SianaGearz> Soothsayer: it could be a shell script or any other kind of executable. it is expected to have +x flag set.
[21:14] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: Can you startx
[21:14] <dark3lf> noname, if not working, maybe you miss a dependancy in synaptic
[21:14] <Soothsayer> SianaGearz: haan
[21:15] <Phareouh> what is that
[21:15] <assmonger> Hey guys... our syslogd (1.5.0) is hanging on a futex, any idea if this is a known issue?
[21:15] <Soothsayer> the damn ns-2 validate takes more than 30 mins
[21:15] <Soothsayer> :-|
[21:15] <assmonger> (as determined by strace)
[21:15] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: or sudo service gdm start
[21:15] <Phareouh> ah by the way
[21:15] <noname> dark3lf; i'll check that too thx bro
[21:15] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: to type, once you have logged in to tty1
[21:16] <Soothsayer> is there any alternative way to practice ns-2 and see the nam output ?
[21:16] <Soothsayer> like some online solution or windows based alternative ?
[21:16] <SianaGearz> Soothsayer: it could even be source code in any programming language, provided the first line looks like #!path/to/interpreter
[21:16] <Kir_NFS> regme
[21:16] <Phareouh> when i go to the recovery mode
[21:16] <Soothsayer> SianaGearz: ye i guess its compiling it
[21:16] <guntbert> !enter | Phareouh
[21:16] <Soothsayer> and running tests
[21:16] <Kir_NFS> Hello. How i make register thete?
[21:16] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: No, during normal boot
[21:16] <rww> ubottu: register | Kir_NFS
[21:16] <Phareouh> ah ok
[21:16] <AJenbo> My dads computer sudenly no longer responds to mouse clicks,  i'm on the machine via VNC and mouse clicks dons't work here either!
[21:17] <Phareouh> ok will try
[21:17] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, has the output of "dmesg | grep iwl" changed?
[21:17] <AJenbo> any one have any idea for what is wrong and how it could be solved?
[21:17] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: sudo service gdm start
[21:17] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, maybe the following information is important: Windows only works when using SATA in AHCI mode... but when i use ubuntu i use IDE mode of SATA (setting in the bios) because in case of AHCI, the sleep mode doesnt work, which is crucial for a notebook
[21:17] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: Is the command
[21:17] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, twice as much output
[21:17] <smallfoot-> please upload screenshots of software to http://screenshots.debian.net/upload
[21:18] <AJenbo> He sayes that it works just as the system is starting but after a few secounds he can only move the mouse or use the keybard
[21:18] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, are you sure, PC is still running?
[21:18] <rww> ubottu: ot | smallfoot-
[21:18] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, do any of the new lines have "failed" or "failure" messages?
[21:18] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, the output is just 2 times * http://pastebin.com/gxSwE9yP
[21:18] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, okay
[21:18] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, instead of the nubmers at the front .. 26-59.... and phy1 isntead of phy0
[21:19] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, i'm on it via vnc and i can do any every thing except click with the mouse
[21:19] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, did you tried reconnecting?
[21:19] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, ah ok and: on the 2nd part the first line differs: PCI INT A disabled..
[21:19] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, reconnect what?
[21:19] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, this line just doesnt exist in the first part
[21:20] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, so the 2nd part has one more line
[21:20] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, he can't click with the local physical mouse, and nether can i when i login via vnc
[21:20] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, one more line than http://pastebin.com/gxSwE9yP
[21:20] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, reconnect to that PC and see if click start working again
[21:20] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, he sayes it's been like this for about 5 dayes now
[21:21] <AJenbo> so it has been rebooted a few times.
[21:21] <nimbiotics> When booting from ubuntu 10.10 live cd I get this message (http://paste.ubuntu.com/525299/) . What is going on here? TIA!
[21:21] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, tried diffrent Mouse? does keyboard works fine?
[21:21] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, now i know why i havent used ubuntu for so long - always i wanted to use it, internet didnt work and i had no time to resolve this ;)
[21:22] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, but i REALLY need the multiple desktop thing of ubuntu to work properly
[21:22]  * Rhun Hi
[21:22] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, if it exhibit the same issue over vnc as on the local machine i doubth it's the physical mouse
[21:22] <boxbeatsy> hi, can somebody explain what a daemon is or what it means to daemonize?
[21:22] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, yes the keyboard works fine that is how i am using it atm
[21:22] <Pylix> if i use a command in the terminal to enable root will my session as root end when i exit the terminal?
[21:22] <jrib> Pylix: what command?  Why?  Why don't you just use sudo?
[21:22] <Pylix> on ubuntu 10.1
[21:23] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, looks more like some thing is grabbing mouse clicks but i don't know where to look for some thing like that.
[21:23] <nothingspecial> Pylix: I don`t think that question is supported here
[21:23] <Dulak> boxbeatsy: it means the program runs entirely in the background, without being attached to a terminal or the gui
[21:23] <brontosaurusrex> Pylix, yes
[21:23] <Pylix> just asking if i did like hypothetically
[21:23] <jrib> !root | Pylix
[21:24] <Phareouh> hay
[21:24] <boxbeatsy> Dulak: gotcha...does it imply anything about starting up by default after a reboot?
[21:24] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, could you get the output of: ls /lib/firmware | grep iwl
[21:24] <Dulak> Pylix: you can get a root shell with sudo -i
[21:24] <Phareouh> who here was helping me
[21:24] <Phareouh> ?
[21:24] <nothingspecial> Pylix: No offence, If you have to ask, you shouldn`t know. If you know, you don`t need to ask :)
[21:24] <Phareouh> it said gdm already runing
[21:24] <Dulak> boxbeatsy: not really, being a daemon just implies the background nature, not anything to do with startup
[21:24] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, (writing it myself)   wilwifi-1000-3.ucode ...
[21:25] <BPower> Hey everyone. I'm trying to get three screens working on Ubuntu 10.10 (one VGA, one DVI, and one HDMI).  Everything is being detected but it only allows me to output to two monitors at a time (as far as I can tell).
[21:25] <Pylix> lol
[21:25] <boxbeatsy> Dulak: gotcha, thanks!
[21:25] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, okay, so it has the microcode for your card, that's good
[21:25] <BPower> This is my error: " MetaMode 1 of Screen 0 has more than two active display devices."
[21:25] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, 7 lines:  3945-2     4965-2           5000-1     5000-2     5150-2           6000-4
[21:25] <Phareouh> hmmmmmm
[21:25] <Phareouh> :'(
[21:25] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, with the iwlwifi. * .ucode
[21:25] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: Try hitting, at the same time, Ctrl Alt F7
[21:25] <Phareouh> did
[21:25] <BPower> it's nVidia GeForce GT 430
[21:26] <Phareouh> it get stuck at Checking battery then a flashing Dash
[21:26] <Phareouh> so still nth
[21:26] <nothingspecial> Phareouh: I`m out. It sounds like you have a bug with your hardware
[21:27] <Phareouh> Will there's something , when i try Recovery ode , Low res , it run fine
[21:27] <Phareouh> and i did install my invidia card
[21:27] <mae_tae> hello people, sorry i was disconnected
[21:28] <f00bar80> i'm on ubuntu 10.04 and using the network manager applet to connect to my wireless connection , is tehree a way to connect to it from CL ?
[21:28] <Yabba> Don't know if anyone can help me. But I'm trying to figure out if there is a bittorrent client i can configure to only download via and when I am connected to the net by a VPN-connection?
[21:28] <ronny> hi
[21:29] <brontosaurusrex> f00bar80, id say no
[21:29] <ronny> anyone can help me with jokey refusing to install drivers for a bcm43* chip
[21:29] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, apparently the driver that you are using for your wireless card is part of "compat-wireless," which you can get on Ubuntu by doing: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
[21:29] <mae_tae> i had this setup PC (<IP_ADDRESS>) ------- eth0 (<IP_ADDRESS>) Ubuntu Server 10.04 eth1 (<IP_ADDRESS>) -------- webserver (<IP_ADDRESS>), problem is i cannot ping to 4.42 host, how do i fix this
[21:29] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, I don't know whether that will bring in a new version of the module that may work or not, but it's something you could try
[21:29] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, eh.. you remember i dont have internet? :D
[21:29] <mae_tae> the server is newly installed
[21:30] <mae_tae> it has squid but i already allow the network in squuid
[21:30] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, yeah, you'd have to get the packages manually on the computer you're currently on, and then move them to the other
[21:30] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, i have no idea how to do so ;)
[21:30] <Dulak> pw-toxic_: or plug an ethernet cable into it temporarily
[21:30] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, are you using Lucid, Maverick, or which Ubuntu?
[21:30] <pw-toxic_> Dulak, .. my pc is on ethernet cable all the time.
[21:31] <Dulak> pw-toxic_: were you not asking about a wireless card?
[21:31] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: use AptonCD
[21:31] <pw-toxic_> Dulak, Lucid Lynx
[21:31] <ronny> my jokey.log is http://paste.pocoo.org/show/285745/
[21:31] <kernix> what the command in the terminal for switching the wireless on please ?
[21:31] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, what is this?
[21:31] <tphive> (Help) I'me setting up a netbook to be sold on UNE 10.04 using the OEM installation, is there any way to enable Visual Effects for the entire machine instead of a per user basis? Thanks.
[21:31] <pw-toxic_> Dulak, my wireless card AND my ethernet doesnt work
[21:32] <ronny> i have no idea how to fix
[21:32] <pw-toxic_> Dulak, ethernet is disabled says the to ppanel
[21:32] <pw-toxic_> Dulak, networking is diabled.. sorry
[21:32] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:transfer packages on your system to a cd repository.  you can then take that cd to another system and load the cd's repository to install packages
[21:32] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, my notebook has no cd rom drive by the way ;)
[21:32] <kukman> hi. How can I enable multitouch support?
[21:32] <kukman> I know my touchpad supports it
[21:32] <area51pilot> :P
[21:33] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i have installed ubuntu via network
[21:33] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, the ethernet also doesn't work?  Does it give a similar error while connected and when you try to do: sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[21:33] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: but no internet on the machine?
[21:33] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, when i do "ifconfig" eth0 appears
[21:33] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i installed ubuntu months ago
[21:33] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, but what does it do when you do that full command while the wire is connected?  sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[21:34] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[21:34] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, RedSocrates eth0 appears, but i only have an ipv6 adress .. my cable is connected to my ubuntu router having dhcp installed which works for my windows
[21:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, already did this
[21:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, RedSocrates i try a reboot
[21:34] <zege> Hi, i've got a problem with alien. After conversion I can'T find the deb file. http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/399220/
[21:34] <area51pilot> k
[21:34] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, does "sudo dhclient eth0" get an IP address?
[21:35] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, wait i do a reboot using SATA as AHCI.. maybe this helps :D who knows
[21:35] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, just try that last command real quick, since your eth0 is showing.    Any idea why I get this error:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/525314/
[21:38] <Nayr> hello all
[21:38] <f00bar80> brontosaurusrex, why ?
[21:38] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, rebooted: "networking disabled" still shown in the gnome top panel..  "ifconfig" shows no eth0  "ifconfig eth0 up" adds eth0 to "ifconfig" output
[21:39] <cousteau`irssi> I can't install abiword because my repository server doesn't seem to have a "libgdome2-0" package. I thought it was a typo
[21:39] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, okay, now, assuming the wire is connected to the ethernet, what happens with: sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[21:39] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, lols  "WARNING **_ Owner of /tmp/orbit-ebox-usercorner is not the current user" (2 times shown)
[21:40] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: pastebin exactly what you are executing and the full output
[21:40] <AJenbo> i am able to click on the application names in the bottom pannel but nowhere else
[21:40] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, as i just said.. if i do ifconfig eth0   there is NO output, but eht0 is shown in the "ifconfig" commands output
[21:40] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, i now tell you the output of dhclient eth0
[21:40] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, sorry, yes, that's what I meant
[21:40] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: wait... now I'm having a weird problem with gksu
[21:41] <cousteau`irssi> gksudo seems to work but gksu doesn't
[21:41] <tphive> (Help) I'me setting up a netbook to be sold on UNE 10.04 using the OEM installation, is there any way to enable Visual Effects for the entire machine instead of a per user basis? Thanks.
[21:41] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, i have a new information... i can ping my ubuntu router
[21:41] <evon_> hello, i have a number of computers in my home.  1 of which i use as a seedbox and the other as a media centre. I would like to administrate both computers via VNC.  I have accomplished this task but the VNC keeps timing out so when i try to connect to theses computer via my main computer I can't. is there any way to prevent this timeout?
[21:41] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: one problem at a time
[21:41] <kukman> how to enable multitouch support in maverick?
[21:41] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, reconnectin with VNC didn't make the local or the VNC mouse workagain
[21:41] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, looks like my ubuntu NAT doesnt work for my ubuntu machine.. but it works on my desktop windows machine (chatting on this with you)
[21:41] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: #2 was found while trying to change the server to solve #1
[21:42] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, yeah, so the problem with eth0 may be something with the Ubuntu router
[21:42] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, the issues with wlan0 look like a different issue
[21:42] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, but why is my wlan0 shown as disabled then?
[21:42] <pw-toxic_> RedSocrates, what i plug in my notebook to a different network with a different router
[21:43] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, were you in System>>Preferencess>>Mouse ? mayby there is something wrong?
[21:43] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: problem 1 solved, the main server works, it's just the spain server the one having trouble with abiword
[21:43] <aquaducter> different ports?
[21:43] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: ok, what are you executing with gksu that doesn't work?
[21:44] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: software-properties-gtk
[21:44] <cousteau`irssi> first from the menu, then from command line
[21:44] <aquaducter> try opening all ports on your router and see if that works
[21:44] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, unfortunately I don't have any other suggestions for you to try at the moment, I have to go as my wife is getting grumpy with me :)
[21:44] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: what happens exactly?
[21:44] <RedSocrates> pw-toxic_, sorry it's still not working, good luck with finding a fix
[21:44] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: it asks me for my password and then does nothing, it just returns to the prompt
[21:45] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: does it work with a different command?
[21:46] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: gksudo does work, but gksu doesn't. I'll try other GUI programs apart from apt-related
[21:46] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: do you have User Rights to connect to a LAn or Wireless Internet
[21:46] <area51pilot> usually defaulted as NO
[21:46] <aquaducter> I got a couple of noob ubuntu questions...
[21:47] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: same for `gksu nautilus` and `gksudo nautilus`. Latter works, former doesn't.
[21:47] <area51pilot> aquaducter: shoot
[21:47] <aquaducter> so I installed 10.4 and trying to update through update manager and it is not showing 10.10 update
[21:47] <taofd> is there a way to deploy your own ubuntu one server?
[21:48] <xarvh> Hi! =) someone knows where is gnome-volume-manager in maverick?
[21:48] <aquaducter> and do i have to install gdm themes manually?
[21:48] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, how can i navigate there using the mouse?
[21:48] <area51pilot> try     from term try : sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install
[21:48] <AJenbo> do you know the exec name of that program?
[21:48] <aquaducter> maybey i have to configure a new update server?
[21:49] <tphive> (Help) I'm setting up a netbook to be sold on UNE 10.04 using the OEM installation, is there any way to enable Visual Effects for the entire machine instead of a per user basis?  She, apparantly, is "freezing" every once in awhile. Why is this?
[21:50] <aquaducter> termal says no new updates
[21:50] <taofd> Dwade09, the second user is probably root...
[21:50] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, found the app name, but nothing unussual in it :(
[21:50] <arquebus> when I boot up Im asked for a keyring password, is there any way I can get rid of the password?
[21:50] <Dwade09> taofd,  how do i find out?
[21:50] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, gnome-mouse-properties
[21:50] <aquaducter> think I could mount the iso and install from there>?
[21:50] <neil_d> I am wondering how the fuse mounting works... I am currently encfs ... but lsmod isn't showing any module for the fuse mounting system... how come?
[21:50] <taofd> Nayr, could be internet?
[21:50] <jrib> !ot | Nayr
[21:50] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, yeah nothing strange there :(
[21:50] <cousteau`irssi> will try to solve this later
[21:50] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: look at System>Administration>users and Groups and then look at the "Advanced" settings for the user you are logged in as
[21:50] <Nayr> yes, but we have almost a 1.0 upload speed
[21:50] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: internally, the code checks how it's called and acts differently
[21:50] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, does clicking on the icon works?
[21:51] <aquaducter> oh and anyone playing wow 4.0.1 through wine? or know if thats working?
[21:51] <Nayr> out recieving video is perfect, but her view of us is freezing
[21:51] <cousteau`irssi> jrib: just read something about a gconf entry, will see that after dinner
[21:51] <CarlFK> how do I " try ohci1394 instead of firewire-ohci." ?  guessing i need to blacklist firewire-ohci by putting it in some file?
[21:51] <jrib> cousteau`irssi: k, good luck
[21:51] <Nayr> ubottu, oops. can I just ask this one?
[21:51] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, no (an what icon specifically?)
[21:51] <jrib> Nayr: #ubuntu-offtopic or ##windows
[21:51] <Dwade09> taofd,  i did w in terminal and it came back both my names one is tty7 the other is pts/0 what are those?
[21:51] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: Make sure you have connecting to wireless and ethernet networks enabled for that user
[21:52] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, if you are refering to the bulb in the mouse pannel, then no
[21:52] <Nayr> ubottu, but you are intelligent.
[21:52] <Nayr> ubottu, hi
[21:52] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, icon of the "light bowl" ?
[21:52] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, yeah that dosn't work
[21:52] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, wtf.. this one was diabled?!
[21:52] <area51pilot> Nayr: check YOUR bandwidth
[21:52] <Nayr> its about 4.0
[21:52] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i never disabled it and im the only one using ths computer for sure
[21:53] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, i can click the program names in the bottom pannel, but nothing else
[21:53] <Pylix> catfish and exaile fail to launch when they previously worked fine; do i have a virus?
[21:53] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: Upon loading it usually defaults to this setting
[21:53] <ubuntu804> I still have a system on Ubuntu 8.10 and just tried to apt-get update with failure.  Did intrepid packages just get removed from ubuntu's servers?
[21:53] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:I found that out after trying to figure out for hours1 day why the hell wifi wouldnt work....  :P
[21:54] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, mayby some app has crashed disabling the space from clicing, aka the invisible layer
[21:54] <neil_d> ubuntu804: have you tried to ping the server?
[21:54] <ubuntu804> I could access it via http neil_d
[21:54] <ubuntu804> let me figure out the actual name of the server...
[21:54] <ubuntu804> http://us.archive.ubuntu.com, neil_d
[21:54] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, maybe, but i just rebooted so don't know what it could be.
[21:54] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, now i cant ping google.de while i can ping google.de's ip address.. ;/
[21:55] <woble> /dev/sdb1 on /media/GMINIXS100 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush)  <-- what looks weird on this mp3 player mount? it unmounts on access try. 4Gb min HD player
[21:55] <AJenbo> wow sudenly the mouse is working again
[21:55] <ubuntu804> neil_d the IP for that I am getting is <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:55] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, magic :D
[21:55] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:dns issue
[21:55] <area51pilot> DNS
[21:55] <th_> hi all
[21:55] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, probably.. but why? it works perfectly on windows and on my other ubuntu machine
[21:55] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:can you ping any other domains
[21:56] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i can ping my own domain within my own network (ubuntu router) and the network behind my ubuntu router
[21:56] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, so i can ping <IP_ADDRESS>/24 and <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[21:56] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: what about an external static IP address
[21:57] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, <IP_ADDRESS>/24 is my internal network i am connected to, and <IP_ADDRESS>/24 is the external network im not directly connected do
[21:57] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, as i said.. i can ping google by ip
[21:57] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, temp magic apparenly, now i can't click any thing :(
[21:57] <neil_d> ubuntu804: the system I have using 8.04 is working fine.
[21:57] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: hmmm ... have to think about that one
[21:57] <ubuntu804> neil_d, sorry bad choice of nick... my system is running 8.10
[21:58] <ubuntu804> neil_d:  the "intrepid" release
[21:58] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, after reseting it was working? then some app is autostarting and disabling the mouse click
[21:58] <th_> im going to install windows 7. i already have ubuntu on that disc. 2 partitions /home and /. so how should i make room to windows? i mean should i put ntfs before or after the linux partitions?
[21:58] <neil_d> ubuntu804: oh! didn't notice that.
[21:58] <Dwade09> hey guys what is tty7 and pt/0 under w in terminal?
[21:58] <tphive> I'm setting up a netbook to be sold on UNE 10.04 using the OEM installation, is there any way to enable Visual Effects for the entire machine instead of a per user basis? Thanks.
[21:58] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i have rebootet.. now i cant reach <IP_ADDRESS>/24 via ip ping
[21:58] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, yeah that is my thinking also
[21:59] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, while <IP_ADDRESS>/24 still works
[21:59] <neil_d> ubuntu804: mine is a 'hardy' install... new server is due to be installed soon.
[21:59] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, "connect: Network is unreachable"
[21:59] <neil_d> I am wondering how the fuse mounting works... I am currently encfs ... but lsmod isn't showing any module for the fuse mounting system... how come?
[21:59] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: so internal is now reachable but not the external net
[21:59] <area51pilot> ?
[22:00] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, looks like it might be related to compiz, and probably a security update for 10.04
[22:00] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, yes internal reachable, but not external (which worked before reboot)
[22:01] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: u didnt change anything but the user acess rights?
[22:01] <intel_i7> Problem, I downloaded wubi. Installed, then booted, worked fine. Then I ran it a few times, installed some stuff. Bla bla, ran windows. then tried to open it again. It kept restarting the computer each time I picked it. Went to windows, got bluescreens. Finally got safemode to work. Then uninstalled ubuntu. Now i can't reinstall because of some pyrun.exe error.
[22:01] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i changed the userrights so it worked and then i rebootet
[22:01] <woble> What could cause a mp3 player to unmount when you try to access it?
[22:02] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: are the user rights still as u set them after reboot?
[22:02] <th_> im going to install windows 7. i already have ubuntu on that disc. 2 partitions /home and /. so how should i make room to windows? i mean should i put ntfs before or after the linux partitions?
[22:02] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, "connect to wireless and ethernet networks" works
[22:02] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, is checked i mean
[22:02] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, "connect to itnernet using a modem" unchecked, but i think this is ok
[22:02] <area51pilot> can you access the external net from another system on the internal net?
[22:03] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: yeah ... modem ... whats that ... :P
[22:03] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, im writing on a windows system which is connected to the same network <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[22:03] <aquaducter> how do I set login gdmtheme>?
[22:03] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, well thats it for today, i just lost the connection (revers ssl) and my dad has gone to sleep
[22:03] <neil_d> th_: I would make sure you have your ubuntu fully backed up... windows likely wipe your grub bootblock too... so you will need to reinstall the after too.
[22:04] <area51pilot> whats your adapters config look like
[22:04] <intel_i7> Can anyone tell me. How to stop pyrun.exe errors?
[22:04] <sjm_> hello every one
[22:04] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, the computer im writiing on is on the same switch.. and my windows system on my notebook works as well
[22:04] <jsec> aquaducter: It's a pain. They changed up gdm a couple versions ago (since jaunty I think)...
[22:04] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, ? whats an adapters config
[22:04] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, sleep is good, an hour and i should go sleep too
[22:04] <th_> neil_d, yes im familiar with the bootloader. but i meant what would be an optimal order
[22:04] <aquaducter> :(
[22:05] <neil_d> intel_i7: there is a #python channel.
[22:05] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, do you know how i can check what default gateway my ubuntu is using currently?
[22:05] <intel_i7> That was with the wubi.
[22:05] <area51pilot> from term run "ifconfig" , similar to ipconfig in windows
[22:05] <intel_i7> It kept spamming that.
[22:05] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, ah sorry.. i cant ping <IP_ADDRESS> anyway so this is no gateway problem
[22:05] <aquaducter> ifconfig -a
[22:06] <aquaducter> -a for adapter
[22:06] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, ifconfig says that eth0 has an ip adress of <IP_ADDRESS> which is correct and what i am expecting
[22:06] <sweed> exit
[22:06] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, ifconfig -a additionally shows wlan0 as an interface
[22:06] <pw-toxic_> but not active
[22:06] <Jordan_U> th_: It doesn't matter much unless you have a buggy BIOS (in which case both Windows and Ubuntu will need a small boot partition near the beginning of the drive).
[22:06] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, as if i din't have enough problems, seams my motheres computer is down as well and my graficcard bourgth the farm so i can only run in VESA and with corupt blue lines all over the image
[22:06] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: which interface is active
[22:06] <neil_d> th_: I don't know... how many partitions atm?   windows might need a primary partition.
[22:06] <robin0800> th_: one other thing is XP at least wnts to see the "C" drive ie the first partion not a problem as XP can't see Ext4 partions no idea about win 7 thou
[22:07] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, eth0 i guess since i can ping my internetal network?!
[22:07] <rww> deww: Your client didn't wait for identification to finish before joining channels. Silly client ;P
[22:07] <th_> neil_d, 2. / and /home
[22:07] <woble> sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_ABORT driverbyte=DRIVER_OK  <-- /var/log hmmz
[22:07] <intel_i7> Can someone tell me how to stop wubi from asking for a drive...
[22:07] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, gnome top panel says "wired network connection 'Auto eth0' active
[22:07] <aquaducter> does youre route gateway correspond with your ip?
[22:07] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: yet no DNS conectivity
[22:07] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, i have ultimate solution for you - take away comp's from your mam and dad :D
[22:07] <area51pilot> ?
[22:07] <noname> hi guys i'm trying to install empthy messanger but whene i run the installation file i get this error :You need to install gnome-common from the GNOME CVS
[22:08] <noname> Any help plz
[22:08] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, dns isnt the problem since i cant even connect to the dns server <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:08] <Jordan_U> intel_i7: What is the exact error?
[22:08] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i cant ping the external network <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:08] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, (which worked before reboot)
[22:08] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, would also need to take away my own if i wanted to fix my grafic issue :)
[22:08] <intel_i7> pyrun.exe -no disk
[22:08] <intel_i7> There is no disk in the drive.
[22:08] <robin0800> noname: sudo aptitude install gnome-common
[22:08] <area51pilot> same netmask?
[22:08] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, do you know where i can look for the default gateway ubuntu is currently using?
[22:09] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, im not sure what a netmask is but i guess its <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:09] <intel_i7> Please insert a dis into drive \device\harddidk1\dr1
[22:09] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: use the route command
[22:09] <intel_i7> *disk
[22:09] <zaxonspox> AJenbo, yes, but your problem i so simple, to fix, you need to change gfx card to new :P
[22:09] <pw-toxic_> <IP_ADDRESS>/24  as well <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[22:09] <aquaducter> can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[22:09] <AJenbo> zaxonspox, i should get a new grafic card to morrow, and hopfylly i can then catch my dad earlier in the day, them maybe solve my mothers computer, what ever might be wrong with it :)
[22:09] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, ;( i dont know the route command.. what shall i paste into the console?
that's all ?
[22:09] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, sorry.. jsut "route" ;)
[22:09] <intel_i7> That error shows whenever I use the ubuntu installer.
[22:09] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: "route"
[22:09] <AJenbo> nn
[22:09] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, there is no gateway.. it says "*"
[22:10] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, one single star at the column of gateway.. this means there is no gateway set?
[22:10] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: from term, run "route"
[22:10] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: try "sudo route"
[22:10] <uLinux_> hm
[22:10] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: it will display netmask and gateway info as well
[22:10] <aquaducter> whats your mask on your ifconfig for eth0?
[22:11] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, area51pilot neil_d same output... <IP_ADDRESS>   *   <IP_ADDRESS>  U  1  0   0  eth0
[22:11] <Jordan_U> intel_i7: See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/365881 . In short, either remove the device causing the error or click through the errors and it will continue without any actual problem.
[22:11] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, but please consider that my NAT router is on <IP_ADDRESS>, not 0
[22:11] <aquaducter> trye 'gateway <IP_ADDRESS>'
[22:11] <aquaducter> m, think you have to set it using route
[22:12] <intel_i7> It says there is no drive.
[22:12] <intel_i7> I don't know anything that can be removed...
[22:12] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, neil_d i have pasted "dhclient eth0" into the console and now i can ping my external network <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:12] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, how can i tell ubuntu to use dhclient?!?
[22:12] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, on startup
[22:13] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, do you k now how i can set the gateway manually?
[22:13] <aquaducter> try system-preferences-network connections
[22:13] <Jordan_U> intel_i7: Then just click through the error messages.
[22:13] <valkyr> hello
[22:13] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: area51pilot  have you checked the /etc/network/interfaces file to see if its brings up eth0 correctly
[22:13] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  auto lo iface lo inet loopback                     auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp
[22:13] <intel_i7> Alright, I got it to work.
[22:14] <intel_i7> Had to click it like 50+ times though.
[22:14] <valkyr> can anyone help with a alsa / 5.1 surround problem ?
[22:14] <rcmaehl> How do I get my swap partition to become active at boot?
[22:14] <Jordan_U> !fstab | rcmaehl
[22:14] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:   (manually) configure /etc/network/interfaces
[22:14] <zaxonspox> rcmaehl, put an SWAP entry into /etc/fstab
[22:15] <zaxonspox> rcmaehl, first find the UUID of the SWAP partition
[22:15] <intel_i7> Now, I had another problem. The reason I uninstalled it in the first place.
[22:15] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, auto lo ... <new line>   iface lo inet loopback (content of interfaces file)
[22:15] <intel_i7> Some time when I booted, it crashed the comp.
[22:15] <intel_i7> And windows
[22:15] <nimbiotics> When booting from ubuntu 10.10 live cd I get this message (http://paste.ubuntu.com/525299/) . What is going on here? TIA!
[22:15] <intel_i7> Every time, I was able to get windows in safe mode though.
[22:15] <intel_i7> But every time ubuntu was run, it crashed.
[22:16] <intel_i7> Im using a 64bit if that matters
[22:16] <help-a-user> question after my ubuntu upgrade my bootscreen look strange
[22:16] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i can ping google now via ip, but not via name: google.de
[22:16] <Jordan_U> nimbiotics: Sounds like a bad CD or drive.
[22:16] <xpo3> nimbiotics what are you trying to install this to?
[22:16] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, neil_d going for a reboot now to check if external network works on reboot after changing interfaces file
[22:16] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  add " auto eth0 iface eth0" next line add " inet dhcp" to the  the file
[22:17] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, damn i have added "auto eth0 iface" new line "eth0 inet dhcp"
[22:17] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, do you k now how i can set the nameserver ubuntu should use manually?
[22:18] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: use the /etc/resolv.conf file
[22:18] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: yes ... edit /etc/resolv.conf with the NS u wish to use
[22:19] <psiklops> area51pilot, is it possible to set the nameserver in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[22:20] <help-a-user> is it normal that after a sec. upgrade my bootscreen look kinda old (not this ubuntu logo, only write: ubuntu 10.10)
[22:20] <rcmaehl> what options should I set with the swap partition in fstab?
[22:21] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, area51pilot /etc/resolv.conf is empty.. is this normal?  only "#Generated by Networkmanager"
[22:21] <area51pilot> psiklops: i'm not sure, the resolv.conf file is the one i edit
[22:21] <zaxonspox> help-a-user, did you installed graphics drivers (ATI/nVidia) ?
[22:21] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: no!
[22:21] <help-a-user> zaxonspox: yes actualy i did ati
[22:22] <zaxonspox> rcmaehl, UUID=<<replace with your UUID>>	 none            swap          sw        0       0
[22:22] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, what should be found there?.. do i need to restart networking or something like this after i change resolv.conf?
[22:22] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  this is all that is in my setup>  auto lo
[22:22] <area51pilot> iface lo inet loopback
[22:22] <zaxonspox> help-a-user, thats the problem, i have installed nVidia Proprietary drivers and also bootscreen is messed up
[22:22] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, this is the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf??
[22:23] <help-a-user> zaxonspox: no way to fix it i gues?
[22:23] <nimbiotics> xpo3, Jordan_U: Thanks
[22:23] <luca> hi everyone .. anyone know how I can change the minimise, maximise and close buttons in the menu bar back to the right-hand side? :) I changed it but can't remember where.. tanks!
[22:23] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, neil_d if i add nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> to resolf.conf, i can ping google.de
[22:23] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: it should have a line... nameserver x.x.x.x ... in it, thou this wont be perminent
[22:23] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, so why isnt dhcp setting the nameserver automatically?!
[22:23] <ubuntusccc> How could you, if booting from a livecd, disable access to all local hard-disks?
[22:23] <duffydack> help-a-user, http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml
[22:23] <ubuntusccc> How could you, if booting from a livecd, disable access to all local hard-disks (to local hard-disks, but not to cd/dvd-roms)?
[22:23] <zaxonspox> help-a-user, search google, i didint searched yet, i am too layzy
[22:23] <rcmaehl> O_O
[22:24] <psiklops> pw-toxic_, http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration#Definingthe.28DNS.29Nameservers
[22:24] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  you have it enabled on startup now?
[22:24] <help-a-user> zaxonspox: thx
[22:24] <xpo3> luca go to administration/ keyboard menu
[22:24] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i can ping everything on startup now by IP but not by nameserver
[22:24] <rcmaehl> no wonder my boot was so slow, ubuntu had set too differnet partitions to mount to / on boot
[22:24] <luca> xpo3: ok I'll try
[22:24] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: ok ... your getting there   :D
[22:24] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, my router on <IP_ADDRESS> has the following dhcpd content: "option domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>"  so why doesnt my ubuntu use <IP_ADDRESS> as a nameserver?!
[22:24] <xpo3> luca or better yet, just type gconf-editor in your terminal, go to applets, metaticity
[22:25] <luca> xpo3: already there..
[22:25] <luca> xpo3: I'm at button_layout, but I can't change it to switch to the right
[22:25] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: area51pilot : how is the dhcp done.?.. is it done by a router etc.?
[22:25] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: can u use any other ns?
[22:25] <[1]ichi> hello
[22:25] <xpo3> luca what do you have for button alyout?
[22:26] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: DHCP usually broadcast by the router, yes
[22:26] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, when i use <IP_ADDRESS> as a nameserver MANUALLY by setting a line "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" into /etc/resolv.conf i can ping "google.de"
[22:26] <[1]ichi> is there someone that use openbox?
[22:26] <xpo3> luca it should be menu:minimize,maximize,close for right side
[22:26] <luca> xpo3: "minimize,maximize,close:" - am just realising, should I have the colon on the left??
[22:26] <luca> xpo3: perfect, thanks, that's probably it
[22:26] <luca> xpo3: done :) tanks very much!!
[22:26] <xpo3> luca de nadad
[22:26] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, neil_d i have two routers and NATs at home.. my router&NAT is <IP_ADDRESS> which is connected to <IP_ADDRESS>/24 which is connectec to the internet
[22:26] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: <IP_ADDRESS> is also your gateway ?
[22:26] <luca> ciao
[22:26] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, <IP_ADDRESS> is the internet gateway and the DNS server which knows everything
[22:27] <ubuntusccc> How could you, if booting from a livecd, disable access to all local hard-disks (to local hard-disks, but not to cd/dvd-roms)?
[22:27] <[1]ichi> ok, i'll try to explain my problem..
[22:27] <pw-toxic_> psiklops, thanks for this link, but I have set the configruation as shown on this page.. the thing is i cant udnerstand why my ubuntu doesnt use the default nameserver ip address it is broadcasting and which works on a windows machine
[22:28] <area51pilot> brb  .... Windows users beckon...
[22:29] <neil_d> pw-toxic_: it does on my setup... I would look at the configuration of the network and "network manager"
[22:29] <Kriss-|-> i have dont something with the fonts now, and i cant seem to browse webpages. anyone know if there is some way to fix the fonts?
[22:29] <[1]ichi> i'm using openbox with pcmanfm.. when i logon i got my desktop like i want but the problem is that i can't use the openbox original menu.. when i right click i've got pcmanfm optione and not the openbox menu..
[22:29] <pw-toxic_> neil_d, what should i look for concretly? i've already looked at the network manager
[22:30] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: u using 10.10?
[22:30] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, 10.4
[22:30] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: I had a lot of issues with network manager in 10.4
[22:30] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: drove me nuts!
[22:31] <rcmaehl> should I set the swap partition to auto?
[22:31] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, but 10.4 has longtime support ;(((
[22:31] <psiklops> who doesnt have issues with "network-managers" :-)
[22:31] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i'm gonna update my notebook to 10.10 now
[22:31] <area51pilot> :)
[22:31] <area51pilot> I uppdated from 10.4 to 10.10 beta and it still worked better than 10.4LTS
[22:32] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, eh..how can i update to 10.10? there is no 10.10 button on the update manager ;(((
[22:32] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: 10.10 has been working out nicely since the official release
[22:32] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: from term   sudoapt-get update
[22:32] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: then sudo apt-get install
[22:33] <kreignf> hi, I'm trying to figure out why my sound isn't working for any applications (eg. lastfm). I checked mixer levels via xfce4-mixer, and they're good - everything is unmuted for all devices and sound levels are high. pulseaudio is working. what else should I check?
[22:33] <area51pilot> mistyped the first.... sudo apt-get update
[22:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, HAHA i just see i had ebox installed on my ubuntu.. i think this is the reason why everything got raped on my system
[22:34] <Kriss-|-> anyone know how to clean up the font database ?
[22:34] <Kriss-|-> or, got the commando for it
[22:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, just doing apt-get autoremove and i see ebox beeing stopped and removed :D
[22:34] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: :P   cool
[22:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, you know ebox?
[22:34] <psiklops> kreignf, alsamixer ?
[22:34] <area51pilot> not really
[22:34] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, it is H O R R I B L E
[22:35] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, never use it
[22:35] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i have don apt-get update and there is still no 10.10 update button in the upadte manager
[22:35] <kreignf> psiklops, no. same output as xfce4-mixer.
[22:36] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: sudo apt-get install
[22:36] <aeon-ltd>
[22:36] <kreignf> psiklops, shouldn't my user be in a specific group? this is 10.04. I don't remember setting it on this install, but it -was- working. and I'm not seeing my username in /etc/group associated with alsa/sound/pulse.
[22:36] <root> ciao a tutti
[22:36] <clayd> what command would i use to see a single line in a file (ie line 236) using the command promt
[22:36] <psiklops> kreignf, you have these options in /etc/group ?
[22:37] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, if i do apt-get isntall it says 0  upgraded 0 newly installed etc..
[22:37] <pw-toxic_> nothing happens
[22:37] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: hmm
[22:37] <psiklops> clayd, nano <file>   control+7   enter line number
[22:37] <clayd> thanks
[22:37] <Guest58230> hi everybodey
[22:38] <psiklops> clayd, your welcome
[22:38] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, im gonna install all regular updates.. maybe this helps... 550MB updates :D
[22:38] <clayd> pw-toxic: you might want to try apt-get dist-upgrade
[22:38] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: and in update manager settings, under Updates ... do u have it set to show new distibution releases?
[22:39] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, d'oh  "failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pam/libpam-modules_1.1.-2ubuntu5_amd62.deb ;((
[22:39] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i cant even do a normal update of ubuntu 10.4 ;(
[22:39] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: u are on a roll arent u!
[22:39] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: and u cant burn a cd ... right?
[22:39] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, haha i cant ping google again..
[22:40] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, eh no i have no cd rom on this computer ;) i need to do a network isntall which i dont remember how to do :D
[22:40] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i have changed nothing and i cant ping google anymore.. holy crap im getting crazy man
[22:40] <area51pilot> u can install from a flash drive if u have one available
[22:40] <kreignf> psiklops, which options?
[22:40] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, not one which is big enough for ubuntu ;)
[22:41] <blackshirt> hello all ...
[22:41] <psiklops> alsa/sound/pulse
[22:41] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: I understand, Ive been a Windows admin for 10+ years, just recently got into Linux and specifically Ubuntu ... it can be crazy at times
[22:41] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: the distro is like 700mb max
[22:41] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, HAHA network <IP_ADDRESS> network unreachable.. WTF???
[22:42] <ubuntusccc> How could you, if booting from a livecd, disable access to all local hard-disks (to local hard-disks, but not to cd/dvd-roms)?
[22:42] <kreignf> psiklops, there is no "sound" group.  :P
[22:42] <kreignf> ... and an "audio" group
[22:42] <kreignf> psiklops, my user is a member of none of those groups.
[22:43] <psiklops> kreignf, audio should have your user
[22:43] <psiklops> audio:x:29:YOUR-USER-HERE
[22:43] <blackshirt> pw_toxic: don't be managed by network-manager ...
[22:43] <kreignf> psiklops, coma seperated right?
[22:43] <pw-toxic_> blackshirt, i dont udnerstand you ;(
[22:43] <kreignf> eg: audio:x:29:pulse,kreign
[22:43] <psiklops> kreignf, audio:x:29:YOUR-USER-HERE
[22:44] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-add-permanent-static-routes-in-ubuntu.html
[22:44] <blackshirt> pw_toxic: what are you doing..exactly..
[22:44] <pw-toxic_> blackshirt, trying to get my internet working ;))
[22:44] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: he is referring to what I mentioned earlier about NM
[22:45] <area51pilot> it sux
[22:45] <Wolfric> i want to create a user that i don't mind letting people see the password for, for using for reverse ssh. what can i put under the shell that keeps the connection open but nothing more. Something a LOT more restrictive than rbash
[22:45] <psiklops> kreignf, $ man group
[22:45] <Wolfric> that's the user shell under /etc/passwd
[22:45] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, oh come on.......... my /etc/resolv.conf gets resettet too..
[22:46] <taofd> ugh, skype just messed up my sound, how do I restart my pulse audio daemon (if not that, what do i need to restart?)
[22:46] <kreignf> taofd, /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[22:47] <Jordan_U> pw-toxic_: Just set it up in System > Preferences > Network Connections
[22:47] <taofd> kreignf, ah, hmm i must not have seen it there, thx
[22:47] <kreignf> taofd, or service pulseaudio restart
[22:48] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: what Jordan_U refers to will pull up network manager as well  :P
[22:48] <kreignf> Wolfric, whatever you're trying to do, you're doing it wrong.
[22:48] <lince> hola?
[22:48] <Jordan_U> !es | lince
[22:48] <rocket16> I didn't find a date countdown applet for GNOME panels, and it is available in Screenlets package. Is there one for gnome-panels?
[22:49] <rocket16> A lightweight date-countdown will be most welcome.
[22:50] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i just see that ebox hasnt been uninstalled completley.. it sitll appears in my software manager.. i will uninstall int now completly (complete removal) .. then lets see.. i guess ebox is doing the magic shit
[22:51] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: ok ... let usknow
[22:53] <oo_seven> what do i need to run in order to see the volume and brightness controls on my laptop
[22:53] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i have so much hate for ebox ;) i was looking for an web interface to manage my ubuntu server
[22:53] <IdleOne> pw-toxic_: please keep the language clean.
[22:53] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, now i can update to 10.10
[22:54] <Dwade09>  hey guys i do w in terminal and i see two users both same name and beside them are tty7 and pt/0 what are those?
[22:54] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i needed to use the settings button on the update manager and select "short term udpates" instead of "only longterm updates"
[22:54] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: right
[22:54] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, ebox...
[22:55] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: what are u using to manage your webserver then?
[22:55] <Pilif12p> How do i see if my server is 64 or 32 bit?
[22:55] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, the thing is that im not really sure about the manual use of iptables.. do you know a good tool which helps me using iptables?
[22:55] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, gedit ;))
[22:55] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, im now doing EVERYTHING with gedit
[22:55] <aeon-ltd> Pilif12p: uname -a
[22:55] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: :D
[22:55] <iazeredo> i need a help of a moderator
[22:55] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, im fed up with those stupid clickibunti tools which dont work
[22:55] <joe__282> howdy
[22:56] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, the only thing is that iptables is crazy and using it via console is really hard to understand...
[22:56] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i think iptables is my only problem.. the only reason why i have installed ebox
[22:56] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: gotcha
[22:56] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, do you know and use iptables?
[22:57] <Dwade09> anyone?
[22:57] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i would be really pleased if you can tell me a programm that helps me setting up firewalls.. opening ports.. forwardings.. setting up NAT etc without needing to have sex with the iptables command line tool
[22:57] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, iptables is really not human useable.. ;) not for me
[22:57] <Pilif12p> aeon-ltd: thanks, i686 is 32 bit, right?
[22:57] <aeon-ltd> Pilif12p: yeah x86 = 32bit x64 = 64bit
[22:57] <Pilif12p> alright
[22:58] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, can you tell me why x86 is not x32? i really dont understand this
[22:58] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: dude use gufw then
[22:58] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, i cant find an entry in the wiki for gufw ;( what is this?
[22:58] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: because ix86 as in i686 i386 they're just architechture names
[22:58] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: I agree, there are a few tools out there, gShield is a good one
[22:59] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: gufw = gui frontend to ufw
[22:59] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i think i tried gshield and it didnt work for me.. so im still running manual command line ip table shit
[22:59] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, found it.. i will look at the wiki page.. maybe this tool is interesting
[22:59] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, do you know if i can install this tool without chaning any of my current configuration?
[23:00] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, i have fear that installing it will kill my current router configuration :D
[23:00] <IdleOne> pw-toxic_: Please keep the language clean or I will remove you from this channel. See !guidelines
[23:00] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: i personally do not know, if your using iptables just wipe them and don't load the daemon
[23:00] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: I think knetfilter is another i used previously
[23:00] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, zero hits for knetfilter in my ubuntu wiki ;(
[23:01] <zorgie> exit
[23:02] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, well ill just try it.. if i disconnect, it broke my network system ;) wish me gl
[23:02] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: gl
[23:02] <area51pilot> http://www.netfilter.org/
[23:02] <atomicbovine> \server irc.foonetic.net
[23:02] <atomicbovine> fuck
[23:02] <IdleOne> !language | atomicbovine
[23:03] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, looks like ufw has no NAT support ;(
[23:04] <oo_seven> where is X and gnome and all this stuff started?
[23:04] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, lets see if my internet crashes when i active ufw ;)
[23:04] <oo_seven> I am checkin in /etc/rc2.d but I guess its not there
[23:05] <kd8ccx> Hello!
[23:05] <aeon-ltd> pw-toxic_: still good i suppose?
[23:05] <pw-toxic_> aeon-ltd, yeah still running.. so maybe i can use this tool if i want to change some forwarding rules
[23:05] <kd8ccx> #tcradio
[23:05] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_: netfilter supports NAT   ...   http://www.netfilter.org/
[23:06] <aeon-ltd> meh hehhehhehhehehehhehehehhehehh bye :)
[23:06] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, i dont like tools where there is no wiki entry on ubuntu support pages ;(
[23:06] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, and i cant reach netfilter.org
[23:06] <area51pilot> pw-toxic_:  ok   ...   :P
[23:07] <area51pilot> why not reachable?
[23:07] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, if i type in the url into opera i reach no website
[23:07] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, Could not locate remote server
[23:07] <area51pilot> weird
[23:07] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, works now.. strange
[23:08] <area51pilot> spooks are circling
[23:08] <area51pilot> :D
[23:09] <pw-toxic_> area51pilot, hm no i dont think i will like netfilter
[23:10] <dpyro> where do i get "makedepend" for maverick?
[23:11] <noname_> error :Desktop effects could not be enabled.how can i fix this problem guys ....
[23:11] <dugger5688> Does anyone know how to change what the volume slider controls (ex PCM instead of Master)
[23:12] <blah213hi> I have a script that runs a program (specifically firefox), but it's not actually opening up the browser when being run by Cron. Any advice?
[23:12] <noname_> error :Desktop effects could not be enabled.how can i fix this problem guys ....
[23:12] <noname_> error :Desktop effects could not be enabled.how can i fix this problem guys ....
[23:12] <rww> ubottu: repeat | noname_
[23:12] <noname_> yes
yes
[23:12] <robin0800> noname_: you probably need a different graphic driver
[23:13] <CrimsonIdol> noname_, try running compiz-check in a terminal
ok wait i will tell you abt results
[23:14] <tphive> So.. could I maybe get some help please? Asked several times with no response. I'm setting up a netbook to be sold on UNE 10.04 using the OEM installation, is there any way to enable Visual Effects for the entire machine instead of a per user basis? Thanks.
[23:14] <noname_>  <CrimsonIdol>:compiz-check: command not found
[23:14] <robin0800> CrimsonIdol: command not found on mine
[23:15] <noname_> i'm new with linux
[23:15] <CrimsonIdol> type comp<tab><tab>
there is no compiz-check
compiz-decorator
[23:17] <yagoo> noname_, if there isn't then that means there's noname :p

thx 4 link
[23:17] <brian> Hi. Just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server. Have server connected via HDMI to monitor. Installation was no prob, but on boot, it doesn't seem to output console to HDMI. I can only SSH in to see that the boot went fine. Don't want X. How to output to HDMI?
[23:17] <brian> Also, I previously had a very minimal (no X) Debian Squeeze installation that output to HDMI automatically after install, but Ubuntu Server 10.04 seems to need some further configuration to get it to do so. What files should I even be looking at? There is no xorg.conf.
[23:18] <dpyro> brian: you have to make a xorg.conf
[23:18] <dpyro> it'll auto-configure otherwise
[23:18] <brian> But if I don't have x installed, how do I create an xorg.conf (or where should I put it?)
[23:19] <CrimsonIdol> noname_, robin0800; do you guys even have compiz installed?
[23:19] <Dwade09>  hey guys i do w in terminal and i see two users both same name and beside them are tty7 and pt/0 what are those?
[23:19] <CrimsonIdol> brian, is it a setting in BIOS
[23:20] <brian> I do see output via HDMI from the BIOS on boot, but once GRUB2 takes over the screen goes black.
[23:20] <Nayr> ubottu, hi!
[23:20] <pw-toxic_> Hi, im just upgrading from ubuntu 10.4 to ubuntu 10.10 and i get the following error: "configuring libc6: The following services could not be restarted for the NGU libc library upgrade:  atd cron"... what does this mean?
[23:20] <brian> I never even see the grub menu and it just boots the first entry.
[23:21] <yagoo> Dwade09, pt* means a text terminal in X
[23:21] <robin0800> noname_: yes and just found compiz-check using google
[23:21] <CrimsonIdol> brian, at the moment the screen goes black, press esc...
[23:21] <yagoo> Dwade09, i believe there's one too for graphical..
[23:21] <Dwade09> yagoo,  and the tty7?
[23:22] <yagoo> Dwade09, X runs on tty7-- (ctl-alt-f7)
[23:22] <Dwade09> ah thank you yagoo
[23:22] <brian> Ok, I'll try that. And after pressing ESC? Anything else?
ok i'm gunna googlin dat
[23:22] <yagoo> Dwade09, fedora has started using tty1 for X.. but tty7 is common for X
[23:22] <blackshirt> brian: maybe shift key
[23:23] <Dwade09> thank you yagoo so much
[23:23] <CrimsonIdol> brian, try pressing it a couple times just as the screen is about to go black and see if you get the grub selection screen...
[23:23] <rww> pw-toxic_: libc tries to restart services that use it when it's being upgraded. it couldn't do that for atd and cron for some reason. you should restart the computer anyway when you're done upgrading, but now you should definitely restart ;)
[23:23] <yagoo> Dwade09, it's also very customizable-- pretty much any distro u can change the tty# X loads on..
[23:23] <piercedwater> I have been running brag for about 3 hours now on one newsgroup that has 400,000 subjects. It has not begun downloading anything yet and it has shown me no progress report. Should I keep waiting or is this abnormal?
[23:24] <pw-toxic_> rww, ok then i can just ignore this error - thanks
[23:24] <rww> pw-toxic_: yeah
[23:24] <yagoo> Dwade09, even if you messing around with some mystical distro and ur using plain text console-- u can use ctl-alt-<arrowkey> to find where X is..
[23:24] <brian> blackshirt and CrimsonIdol, tried repeatedly pressing ESC and shift just now and nothing changed. I can log in via SSH already, so it's booted, but still won't let me see it...
[23:24] <pw-toxic_> rww, omfg.. upgrading to 10.10 takes 6 hours.. arghs
[23:24] <emilywind> eep
[23:25] <emilywind> Upgrading to 10.10 only took around 45min for me :o
[23:25] <emilywind> Then again I am on a decent connection with an alright laptop :)
[23:25] <CrimsonIdol> brian, what version again?
[23:25] <brian> 10.04 LTS server AMD64
[23:26] <brian> I only installed SSH-server and virtualization from tasksel
[23:26] <Toxicsgz> Is anyone having problems with firefox since the last update?
[23:26] <brian> What really puzzles me is that Debian Squeeze with a VERY minimalist install was able to output to HDMI automatically. What are they doing differently?
[23:27] <CrimsonIdol> brian, you may have to alter grub to show the kernel selection screen. Try in #grub
[23:27] <blah213hi> Are the startup applications set through the GUI truly run at startup or only at login?
[23:28] <yagoo> brian, it's not debian it's the whole OSS community improve X all the time..
[23:28] <yagoo> lol
[23:28] <CrimsonIdol> blah213hi, I know apache runs whether I login or not...
[23:28] <peepz> ubuntu is wierd..i created a new user peter and I cant chown things in my own home folder..it asks for sudo password!
[23:28] <peepz> why do I have to be sudo to modify stuff in my own home dir?
[23:29] <blah213hi> CrimsonIdol: is apache set for you through that gui?
[23:29] <blah213hi> (system=>preferences=>startup applications)
[23:29] <coz_> blah213hi,  well... you can check which processes are running with a small terminal app   sysv-rc-conf  you install that and start it with sudo sysv-rc-conf... scroll with arrows and disable or enable with space bar...the first tick box of each is what is ticked  and if untikced it is active
[23:29] <CrimsonIdol> blah213hi, it set itself during install...
[23:30] <coz_> blah213hi,  for example   ,, having a desktop  ,, I disable  pcmcituils from there and also bluetooth
[23:30] <coz_> blah213hi, next time you reboot t hose  processes will h ave been disabled
[23:30] <blah213hi> coz_: I'm aware. I'm not supposed to restart this system, though, so I can't see if this actually runs at boot or not.
[23:30] <coz_> blah213hi,  ah
[23:31] <coz_> blah213hi,   you can try  in terminal pstree -p | more  to see what is running
[23:31] <blah213hi> CrimsonIdol: but does it show up among the startup applications on that list?
[23:31] <blah213hi> coz_: why would that matter?
[23:31] <coz_> blah213hi,  I may have misread your question
[23:32] <blah213hi> coz_: there's a program i want to run at every startup rather than at every login. how can i ensure that it works as expected?
[23:32] <coz_> blah213hi,  ah I did misread it ..sorry...  let me check to be sure
[23:33] <jmills> blah213hi: you can check the upstart man page or check the file /etc/rc.local
[23:34] <CrimsonIdol> blah213hi, no it does not
[23:35] <Pezcore> uh, hi all....im looking to setup a dual boot system of ubuntu/win7 & i'd like to obtain a guide or some really good advice as to how it should be done - help anyone?
[23:36] <oo_seven> where is X etc started in my ubuntu?
[23:36] <jsec> Pezcore, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[23:36] <coz_> blah213hi,   well maybe if you added a command to the  /etc/rc.local script  it should run at start up instead of login ...but how to tell it is doing that I have no idea...however.... you could go to ##linux channel and ask there... they have a broader base of information
[23:36] <ubuntuuser10> hi everybody, is it generally possible to install fonts with .fon extension on ubuntu 10.04?
[23:36] <ubuntuuser10> can you suggest me a instruction how to do that?
[23:36] <Pezcore> JSEC - > cheers i'll look it up
[23:36] <jsec> Pezcore, np
[23:38] <blah213hi> CrimsonIdol: alright, thanks
[23:38] <blah213hi> coz_: hmm. i think cron is the only way to do it without root access, correct?
[23:38] <Sterist> quick question... what is the closest thing to Photoshop on the ubuntu repository ?
[23:39] <lolo3> can someone good with grep awk etc only sf-34979.mp3 from the line value="mp3=./reader/sf-34979.mp3&autoplay=1&showstop=1" />
[23:39] <oo_seven> Sterist: gimp
[23:39] <coz_> blah213hi,  possibly but again ...so I dont go ahead and break your system:)  I would ask in ##linux to be sure of it
[23:39] <Sterist> really? nothing better than gimp?
[23:39] <Companion-Cube> now for something different... a ubuntu question! so, im running out of disc space, and in an effort to gain some back, perused through / and came across /proc which totals 128TB... now, i dont even HAVE 128TB worth of storage, its just a 64GB SSD... and insights as to whats going on, and how i can clean it up, and maybe get some disc space back?
[23:40] <tphive> How do you enable Visual Effects for all accounts 'made/will be made' on a computer using UNE 10.04
[23:40] <CrimsonIdol> Sterist, what's wrong with gimp?
[23:41] <Sterist> i've had bad experiences trying to use it's features
[23:41] <SianaGearz> gimp is amazingly good, though will take some getting used to.
[23:42] <Sterist> i mean... i can cope with it but it's just not practical imo
[23:42] <jmills> Sterist: if you have the time, I like the blog meetthegimp.  He is really good at giving tips on using gimp.
[23:42] <SianaGearz> Sterist: the only other thing you might want to try would be Krita. the rest, just not worth even getting a look at.
[23:43] <robin0800> Sterist:  try pinta or mypaint both window clones
[23:45] <Aer> can someone help me please I have a problem which i thought was a wine problem but in the wine channel they said it looks like an ubuntu bug
[23:45] <SianaGearz> oh yes mypaint is a very good drawing application for pen tablet. it's not an image processing problem.
[23:45] <snakesqzns> any find a fix for 10.10 losing gtk theme settings (and then ignoring any changes in Appearances)?
[23:45] <SianaGearz> ehr program
[23:45] <blah213hi> coz_: thanks for the help!!
[23:46] <waynecurrent> 大家好
[23:46] <s0dium> Please could anyone help me regarding my firewall? For some reason I am getting unfailed connection attempts from an unknown service contstantly?
[23:46] <coz_> blah213hi,  any progress?
[23:46] <Pezcore> JSEC - > much appreciated mate, you've most likely saved me a lot of time n tears
[23:46] <Jinxzs> Brasero problem : brasero want to install file [/usr/bin/toc2cue] i did press install but it says cant find the package what am gonna do?
[23:46] <Aer> I cant seem to run "Transmission" and "WINE" at once, when i start transmission it just kills the internet connection speed for the wine program and just lags like hell
[23:46] <Aer> but if i run a torrent and the same wine program in Windows the connection is fine for both programs
[23:46] <blah213hi> one last question: if i run something with $DISPLAY set to someone else's display number, does it display on their screen or just not work?
[23:46] <aeon-ltd> Aer: restrict the up an down speeds reserved for transmission
[23:47] <SianaGearz> Aer, not a bug, inconsiderate behaviour of BOTH problems i think.
[23:47] <Aer> tried that doesnt help
[23:47] <SianaGearz> oh...
[23:47] <SianaGearz> ehr programs
[23:47] <SianaGearz> puh i need a break
[23:47] <blah213hi> errr, nevermind... need to leave
[23:47] <blah213hi> thanks for the help everyone
[23:47] <Aer> i set transmission download and upload really low like 5kb/s when my connection is currently capable of 5.74mb/s
[23:48] <Aer> and transmission still kills the speed for my wine app
[23:48] <StrikerST> Im having a crisis, I instaled ubuntu via wubi and it crashed, I cannot access the partition either with any of the windows->linux viewers, I obvious dual booted this computer, I need to access several files in that partition
[23:48] <StrikerST> what do I do?
[23:48] <SianaGearz> Aer: what do you run in wine?
[23:49] <Jinxzs> Brasero problem : brasero want to install file [/usr/bin/toc2cue] i did press install but it says cant find the package what am gonna do?
[23:49] <Aer> World of Warcraft
[23:49] <Aer> it works perfect when transmission is closed
[23:49] <SianaGearz> ieeeeehhhh....
[23:50] <Aer> ?
[23:50] <SianaGearz> Aer: on what grounds have the #wine people said it's an ubuntu problem? has any of them had positive experience world of warcrafting AND pulling torrents?
[23:51] <CrimsonIdol> Aer, you probably have the WoW/Transmission virus...
[23:51] <linear4> Aer, What problem do you get with WoW?
[23:51] <Aer> i dunno but they wont really help me any further they say its not a wine problem
[23:51] <SianaGearz> Aer: i don't know world of warcraft specifically, but online games tend to do a bit of checking on the system in general. in particular, perhaps something goes wrong there...
[23:52] <Aer> it lags like hell when i use Transmission at the same time Linear4, but i have capped the speeds of transmission and it still kills wow speed when i have plenty of bandwidth left
[23:52] <jewsucanuse> does changing a single flag require a whole kernel compilation?
[23:52] <Aer> CrimsonIdol, WoW/Transmission virus ???
[23:52] <Aer> SianaGearz, wow works perfect in wine when Transmission is closed though
[23:52] <SianaGearz> Aer: don't take everyone seriously.
[23:53] <StrikerST> can anyone help me im pretty fucked
[23:53] <SianaGearz> Aer: there are a couple of things to exclude...
[23:53] <Aer> SianaGearz, its only when I open transmission and start a torrent i get the problem and i have tried capping the speeds to leave plenty of bandwidth for wow and it still kills the speed
[23:53] <CrimsonIdol> Aer, so why not just pause transmission while playing WoW?
[23:53] <Aer> becuase then i can only do one thing at once, id prefer to use windows if i can do more than one thing at once lol
[23:53] <aeon-ltd> Aer: what port(or ranges) does wow occupy?, i heard the updates were p2p but i'm not sure about the whole game
[23:54] <IdleOne> !language | StrikerST
[23:54] <domdom> hi everybody
[23:54] <Aer> i cant remember what ports it uses but it is fully updated i updated it befoer i started would it still bea problem ? but yeah wow is p2p for updates but you can turn p2p off and download direct from wow servers which is what i do
[23:54] <linear4> Aer~sama! Have you considered, or tried using an alternative torrenting client?
[23:55] <blackshirt> StrikerST: your windows partition corrupted ??
[23:55] <SianaGearz> blackshirt: backwards. his ubuntu partition is.
[23:56] <Companion-Cube> sorry, nobody responded last time, asking again. so, im running out of disc space, and in an effort to gain some back, perused through / and came across /proc which totals 128TB... now, i dont even HAVE 128TB worth of storage, its just a 64GB SSD... and insights as to whats going on, and how i can clean it up, and maybe get some disc space back? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2220265/%21Temp/proc.PNG
[23:56] <Aer> are there any toher good linux native torrent clients other than Transmission Linear4 ?
[23:56] <zacktu> i just did an upgrade to 10.10 and lost the network manager applet icon on the top panel -- "add to panel" doesn't display network manager -- how do I get the icon back?
[23:56] <blackshirt> SianaGearz: i dont think so.. he is using wubi for his ubuntu.. not dedicated linux partition..
[23:56] <linear4> Aer You can try rtorret, or deluge. Search synaptic.
[23:56] <SianaGearz> aaah ok...
[23:56] <aeon-ltd> Aer: rtorrent but its cli
[23:57] <SianaGearz> Aer, my favorite is Qbittorrent.
[23:57] <Aer> hmm id prefer one with a gui for now since im still new to linux and still learning all the CLI :(
[23:57] <blackshirt> SianaGearz: i think, placed linux on windows filesystem is stupid ...
[23:57] <linear4> Companion-Cube, Try the command df -hT
[23:57] <CrimsonIdol> Companion-Cube, have you looked at the files?
[23:58] <Companion-Cube> CrimsonIdol: yes, but i not exactly sure what IS in them. i didnt place anything in there...
[23:58] <Aer> can Qbittorrent and deluge use a IP Block List like Transmission does ?
[23:58] <linear4> Companion-Cube, That is, if you are trying to get the disc space.
[23:58] <domdom> i have a question: i installed ubuntu on my laptop and would like to show my friend how insecure his WEP wireless is but i can't use the aircrack-ng paket. i try to install it with apt-get install aircrack-ng but it says it can't be found. do i have to be connected to the internet? can me someone help on that please
[23:58] <Companion-Cube> linear4: well, i dont even know if they are safe to delete.. what does df -HT dO?
[23:58] <linear4> domdom, Connected to the Internet for what?
[23:59] <CrimsonIdol> Companion-Cube, show us a list (some)
[23:59] <domdom> to download the aircrack-ng paket?
[23:59] <blackshirt> domdom: yes..you must connected to internet, or if you have dvd/local repository, you wouldn't need connected to internet
[23:59] <linear4> Companion-Cube, no, don't delete anything in /proc as far as I know about it. df -hT will show available space for your drives.
[23:59] <Aer> SianaGearz, Linear4 can Qbittorrent and deluge use a IP Block List like Transmission does ?
[23:59] <Companion-Cube> CrimsonIdol: its a numerical #'d files going up, but ill grab a screen
[23:59] <linear4> domdom Yes you need Internet to sudo apt-get install things.
[23:59] <robin0800> zacktu: its part of the indicator applet add that to the panel


[20:43] <somekool> i'm not missing any features from konversation, I am still using it. its just that a recent kubuntu update added a popup error when i launch konversation. it works anyway. but complains about ldap
[20:43] <somekool> maybe it aint related with a kubuntu update
[20:45] <nob2x> good evening
[20:46] <Ariadnax> hello all
[20:46] <Ariadnax> i need some helo with kontact. won't purge completed to-dos or even save new ones (same thing with events)
[20:48] <nob2x> http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/8409/smalldesk.png <- any idea how I could solve that?
[20:49] <tmeixner> Hi - is it possible to create a live usb stick with kubuntu which already has all the updates included for an express installation?
[20:51] <tmeixner> when I'm at a friends place with slow internet I don't want to download all the updates and I have an 8GB USB Stick so space shouldn't be a problem
[20:55] <ubuntu__> hallo
[20:55] <Ariadnax> hallo!
[20:59] <bob__> ciao a tutti
[21:08] <arfee> hey, i have a question I hope someone can help with
[21:09] <arfee> I have added KDE to my Ubuntu and I live in Holland
[21:09] <arfee> I used to have problems discovering my network and had to add EU to something, but with KDE I have same problem again
[21:09] <arfee> what do I do to discover my wireless network?
[21:12] <Guest26375> ciao
[21:14] <yaa_> hi
[21:14] <yaa_> mazatrakaz
[21:14] <panos4ever> sudo rm -rf /
[21:15] <yaa_> any chukchas?
[21:15] <yaa_> help me chukchas
[21:16] <yaa_> nekosher
[21:16] <yaa_> that cannot be true
[21:17] <yaa_> that there are no any chukcha on the whole server
[21:20] <Zengol> Is it worth it to upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty?
[21:21] <kenan> !restricted
[21:21] <Dr_willis> Zengol,  if it has features you need.. yes.. if not  no..  if you want to test it out yes...
[21:21] <Dr_willis> Zengol,  if you cant risk a unstable system... No...
[21:22] <Zengol> Does it still have the same problem that 8.10 has with the system crashing back to KDE after resolution changes?
[21:22] <arfee_> hey everyone, you all ok?
[21:22] <Dr_willis> i dont have that problem. :)
[21:22] <Dr_willis> sounds like it may be a video-driver specific/card specific issue Zengol
[21:22] <Zengol> I had to install open/boc due to teh problem.
[21:22] <Zengol> openbox.
[21:22] <Zengol> Sorry about that.
[21:22] <Dr_willis> sounds like its a kde 4.X bug then.
[21:23] <Zengol> No, what is causing the problem is the avdanced desktop graphic's.
[21:23] <Zengol> I trned them off and it stopped.
[21:23] <arfee_> I just installed KDE 4 on Ubuntu, and live in Holland, I had to add regdom=EU when i wanted to discover my network on Ubuntu now cant dicover it on KDE?
[21:23] <Dr_willis> eyecandy causes more problems then its worth most of the time
[21:23] <Zengol> I can change resolution's normally and everything else with absolutely no problem now.
[21:23] <Dr_willis> arfee,  add it where exactly?
[21:24] <arfee_> hang on let me find out
[21:24] <Zengol> Well, i'm planning on sitting here and testing out each piece of eye candy at a time to find out which one is causing it to crash back to KDE.
[21:24] <Zengol> Or of it's just the whole thing in general...
[21:24] <arfee_> /etc/modprobe.d/regdom options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=EU
[21:24] <Zengol> Which it probably is knowing my luck,
[21:24] <arfee_> thats command line code
[21:25] <Zengol> Ahh, desktop effect's is what i meant to call it.
[21:25] <Dr_willis> arfee_,  kubuntu and ubuntu use the same  system underneeth.  so it would be the same way to set it in both.
[21:25] <arfee_> thats what i thought
[21:25] <arfee_> hence why i dont understand why it doesnt discover the network
[21:26] <Dr_willis> I rarely use wireless.. so thats about all i know on the topic. :)
[21:26] <arfee_> hey, thanks anyway
[21:26] <Dr_willis> i also set my ssid's to be hidden. so i have to enter them
[21:26] <Zengol> How do i set custom time?
[21:26] <Zengol> Lol.
[21:26] <yaa_> they have enslaves the whole world with tesla's
[21:26] <Zengol> I can't figure out how to change the time on my clock...
[21:26] <Zengol> Oh, nvm.
[21:26] <Zengol> I found it.
[21:26] <Dr_willis> :)
[21:26] <Zengol> Yeah, i'm still kinda new to KDE>
[21:27] <Zengol> Used to Gnome.
[21:27] <JamesCC> Anyone know how to configure channel balance in Amarok? I lost output for my left channel.
[21:27]  * Dr_willis rembers years ago befor pc's had battery/clocks . and you had to set the time at every bootup
[21:28] <arfee_> you know what, i just had a brainfart...im gonna re-enter that line...INSIDE of KDE...wow, im smart sometimes
[21:28] <Zengol> Won't let me set time or date....
[21:29] <Zengol> Say's it is unable to contact the server...
[21:29] <Dr_willis> inside kde? or you mean while running kubuntu?
[21:29] <arfee_> yeah thats what i meant
[21:29] <Dr_willis> arfee_,  you are dualbooting Kubuntu and ubuntu?
[21:29] <Dr_willis> arfee_,  or do you realize you can have 1 install with both desktops installed..
[21:30] <arfee_> no i have both in the sessions, so both desktops
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Ok. :
[21:30] <arfee_> dualbooting is too much hassle
[21:30] <Zengol> Why do i need to contact a time server to set my own damm clock?
[21:30] <Dr_willis> I see a lot of people that dont realize you can have kubuntu and ubutnu both installed at the same time. and just use GDM
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Zengol,  its getting the time from the server.
[21:30] <Dr_willis> if you wan tto set it yourself you can use the date command i recall...
[21:31] <Zengol> Why can i not set a custom time?
[21:31] <arfee_> ill brb, thanks for your help Dr_willis
[21:31] <Mamarok> ahdach: don't query me please
[21:32] <Zengol> It's irritating me because it's one hour behind, haha.
[21:33] <Zengol> HA!
[21:33] <Zengol> Got it.
[21:33] <Zengol> That's really confusing.
[21:34] <devilsadvocate|l> ok, can someone help fix my laptop keys : dell inspiron. my amarok global shortcuts need to be changed, but it doesnt let me do that (i dont know how to put in an XF86Audio* entry in the thing) so i might need to fix the bindings system wide. currently, mute does not work, play/pause does play, stop does not work ...
[21:34] <Mamarok> ahdach: behave, stop querying me and don't insult me!
[21:36] <Zengol> For Amarok, go to setting's then configure global shortcut's. You should be able to use your function key to activate your shortcut's for play/pause, stop, and all that good junk.
[21:37] <Dr_willis> Zengol,  sounds like your time zone was set wrong.
[21:37] <Dr_willis> or DST set wrong
[21:37] <Zengol> Yeah, it was my timezone.
[21:37] <Zengol> I had to figure out where to change it at.
[21:38] <Zengol> It was set to local, had to change it to Denver i believe.
[21:38] <Zengol> Oh, North Dakota.
[21:42] <nihility_> My time is stuck on military time. does anyone know how to change it?
[21:44] <JontheEchidna> nihility_: In System Settings go to Regional and Language
[21:44] <JontheEchidna> the time settings in there should allow you to change time format
[21:45] <nihility_> I do not see an option
[21:45]  * jcprather thinks 12-hour clocks should be erradicated
[21:47] <jcprather> nihility_: under Regional and Language settings, you don't have a "Time and Dates" tab?
[21:48]  * jcprather is seeing this on jaunty, and supposes it may differ significantly from other versions
[21:48] <nihility_> no i do have that tab but no option in there...
[21:48] <scott___> can anyone help me with enabling direct rendering
[21:49] <nihility_> ok i have it set... forgive me as i just installed Kubuntu and have been using windows all of my life.
[21:49] <nihility_> Thanks
[21:50] <jcprather> o hurray. i was ksnapshotting and ready to draw circle on it for u
[21:50] <nihility_> Great... by the way i have been searching for MOTU drivers for linux but i can not seem to find any. suggestions?
[21:55] <nihility_> Another question... is there another way to unistall apps beside using adept? Something more like add remove programs in windows>?
[21:56] <jcprather> i haven't tried it, but there is a kde packagekit tool
[21:57] <jcprather> tho im not sure if its available in versions prior to jaunty or how well it works currently
[21:57] <nihility_> I saw that but have yet to try it. i will check it out. Thanks again
[21:57] <Guest28602> I have installed restricted drivers,what do I need else to isntall for listening music from amarok?
[21:57] <jcprather> dpkg - commandline package thingy
[21:57] <Guest28602> !codecs
[21:58] <jcprather> looks like apt-get will also remove packages via commandline
[21:58] <Dr_willis> !apt
[21:59] <jcprather> also, aptitude, is a commandline that one of my coworkers is fond of
[21:59] <devilsadvocate|l> Zengol, when trying to change amaroks shortcuts, pressing on the button makes it do what it is currently set to do, and does not actually change the setting itself...
[21:59] <devilsadvocate|l> (Zengol, sorry for the long delay)
[21:59] <nihility_> Thanks!
[22:00] <Guest28602> jcprather : I have installed restricted drivers,what do I need else to isntall for listening music from amarok?
[22:00] <jcprather> i'm new to kubuntu, and have never used amarok, so i don't know, i'm sorry
[22:00] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, ubuntu-restricted-extras can help (and mp3 support.. amarok will help you when you try to play your first mp3)
[22:01] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : I have installed that resticted extra...but when i want to play stream from amarok it says that there is no codec
[22:02] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, ...
[22:02] <devilsadvocate|l> hm
[22:02] <nihility_> ahh the pakage manager is so much better! thanks again
[22:02] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : yes?
[22:02] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, trying to remember
[22:04] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, i think you need some libxine something for mp3. im sorry, i dont remember the exact package
[22:04] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, if its an real media stream, then i dont know if its even possibel to play it
[22:05] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : I know that I need it...I'll try with gstreamer...
[22:06] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : thx
[22:07] <nihility_> Ok in windows i use a scripting languages called autoit and autohotkey. is there anything comperable for linux without having to learn an oop language?
[22:07] <devilsadvocate|l> Guest28602, the gstreamer plugins are in ubuntu-restricted-extras (i think ugly too)
[22:07] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : yeah, but not all...
[22:08] <Guest28602> devilsadvocate|l : I've been looking in package manager...I'm trying something now
[22:08] <vital> I have a laptop with a ATI mobile radeon x1600 videocard, what driver should I use as the proprietary driver dont support my chip? is it radeon or radeonhd?
[22:11] <Dr_willis> vital, or 'ati'
[22:12] <vital> Dr_willis, okay, I'll try ati then :) thanks
[22:15] <vital> Dr_willis, thanks again, ati works wonderful :)
[22:20] <Dr_willis> just no 3d accell
[22:20] <Dr_willis> :)
[22:21] <vital> well, it's fast enough for me, I dont play games, I just code ;)
[22:21] <Dr_willis> You L33t C00DeR
[22:22] <vital> hehe.. well..
[22:25] <baaleal> i
[22:25] <baaleal> hi
[22:25] <baaleal> Hola como estan?
[22:28] <k0pp> if i was to create a folder in /dev/input, would it be erased upon reboot?
[22:32] <leleastro> hi all
[22:33] <Dr_willis> k0pp,  i would have to guess.. Yes.
[22:42] <davidjheinrich_> hi call, can anyone help me get my resolutio to 2048x1536 using xrandr?
[22:42] <commander_> does anyone have their awn up
[22:43] <Ilie> hi, I just installed kubuntu and I experience some problems with a dual setup monitor
[22:44] <Ilie> the second monitor uses the same resolution as the laptop, any ideas how can I change it ?
[22:44] <Ilie> System Settings -> Display shows only one monitof (default)
[22:44] <Ilie> my second monitor is a samsung 20" tft
[23:08] <sukumade> does anyone know of a video card benchmark program for linux? the only articles i found on google were years old
[23:10] <darkenergy> hello, could someone please tell me what's on the kubuntu intrepid dvd that makes it so large?
[23:10] <sukumade> my guess are all the apps you would typically apt-get or additional development tools / x environments
[23:11] <darkenergy> never realised that was an option
[23:12] <sukumade> well i am sure it doesn't include EVERYTHING you could get via apt-get
[23:12] <sukumade> but a lot of common apps not included with the live cd
[23:13] <genii> The alternate cd for instance you could set up as a local repo. So likely the dvd is same sort of idea
[23:14] <darkenergy> i've used CD versions
[23:15] <darkenergy> both alternate and live
[23:24] <XPS_M1330> which is the nicest MSN client?
[23:25] <EtFb> XPS_M1330: Pidgin is good.  I prefer it to Kopete, anyhow.
[23:26] <genii> My vote is also with pidgin
[23:29] <XPS_M1330> thanks
[23:31] <boboso> what is a good burning program?
[23:31] <darkenergy> k3b
[23:32] <EtFb> boboso: I had trouble with k3b, but it might have been a hardware problem with my old laptop.  It works well with the new one, so I guess it's ok.  Certainly does everything I need for casual DVD and CD burning.
[23:32] <EtFb> boboso: Real hard-core geeks tend to use command-line programs, apparently.
[23:34] <delilaz> hello all, I have konqueror-nsplugins installed but my flashplayer isn't working, now I have kde 3.5 and I read that nsplugins wasn't really needed in 3.5, is that what's causing the player not to work?
[23:35] <delilaz> Also wonddering if installing gnash would affect the flashplayer plugin for firefox???
[23:36] <boboso> EtFb: right i was asking cause i was looking for a good one for my bro
[23:36] <Shile> hi ppl
[23:37] <delilaz> anyone know?
[23:37] <Shile> is any1 free to explain me how to use kubuntu 8.10 on my Windows XP as virtual machine?
[23:37] <EtFb> boboso: k3b will probably be fine.
[23:37] <EtFb> Shile: What VM software?  VMWare?
[23:37] <Shile> yes vmware
[23:37] <Shile> vm player
[23:38] <EtFb> Shile: Are you using VMWare Workstation, VMWare Server or something else?
[23:38] <boboso> EtFb: thanks he is already using it
[23:38] <Shile> i thought i can use wm player...i need vmware workstation?
[23:39] <delilaz> I believe virtualbox is an easier virtual machine to set-up
[23:40] <boboso> vmware is easy
[23:40] <EtFb> delilaz: VMWare is freakishly reliable and full-featured, especially now that VMWare Server offers everything that Workstation has, and is free.
[23:40] <Dr_Willis> i find virtualbox easier to use.
[23:41] <Dr_Willis> and it does what i need.  which isent much :)
[23:41] <boboso> to downloand it and install it and then find the appliance you want and download it and then use vmware to run the appliance
[23:41] <EtFb> Dr_Willis: I've never used it, so I don't know.
[23:41] <delilaz> Thanks boboso and EtFb
[23:41] <Dr_Willis> i normally test live cd iso files. for a long time vmware worked better.. then vbox did somtning :) and it started working better/easier.
[23:41] <boboso> i have not used virtualbox either but i have 2 appliances running right now in vmware
[23:42] <delilaz> but I find virtualbox great too, it's also free
[23:43] <delilaz> Anyone know if installing konqueror-plugin-gnash will interfere with the flashplayer plugin that firefox already has?
[23:44] <delilaz> I have 3 web browsers and only 1 can use flashplayer :(
[23:45] <BluesKaj> delilaz:  install flashplugin-nonfree
[23:46] <delilaz> BluesKaj: I do have that
[23:47] <BluesKaj> then uninstall flashplayer, they interfere
[23:48] <delilaz> BluesKaj: ok thanks for the info :)
[23:50] <BluesKaj> delilaz: it depends on your setup, youmay be able to keep flashplayer
[23:52] <delilaz> BluesKaj: how would I know if I'm able to keep it?
[23:57] <karolina> :)
