[00:00] <mbelo> this is a test, if u see it please say something to me
[00:00] <maco> mbelo: something
[00:00]  * Zoohouse is away: brb
[00:00] <mbelo> maco: thanks:)
 hello I have a problem with my fresh install. The microphone is not working. I tried both an external and the microphone build on the laptop and none of them work. any ideas?
[00:02] <LjL> !away > Zoohouse    (Zoohouse, see the private message from ubottu)
[00:03] <jamil_1>  Hi, When I try to do apt-get update in terminal i get a 403 forbidden. I am behind a proxy and I have set the http_proxy variable. Synaptic runs fine.
[00:06] <Loshki> jamil_1: can you pastebin the output and send us the url?
[00:06] <esj> question on file sharing. I would like to be able to mount a directory from remote machine into a share on my Windows box. Yes, I know what Samba. What I'm looking for something with a much lower overhead for setup that I can do from user space for when I need this kind of service for only a few days
[00:07] <Matir> esj: does it need to be mounted as a share?  otherwise you could use sftp for file transfers
[00:08] <jamil_1> Loshki: here it is: http://pastebin.org/336768
[00:08] <thune3> jamil_1:  apt-get -s -o Acquire::http::Proxy="http://proxy.server.here" update ; if that works there is a way to make this permanent
[00:08] <esj> it would be best if it was a share. The problem with the data into places is synchronization
[00:08] <stathis> any ideas about the microphone problem?
[00:08] <thune3> jamil_1: forget the -s
[00:09] <esj>  I've used unison to try and keep directory synchronized but, it's error prone. I frequently forget and change the same files on both sides
[00:09] <Tvmble> Question: I'm trying to put my current Hardy installation (on HDD 1, we'll call it) into a blank ext3 partition on another harddrive (call it HDD 2). How do I best go about this?
[00:09] <Loshki> esj: well, Samba *is* the method of choice for sharing filesystems with windows machines. Can we help you get it working?
[00:10] <Tvmble> I've read up on backing up and restoring my system, but I'm not sure if I need to install Ubuntu again on teh empty ext3 partition.
[00:10] <esj> Samba is way too much overhead especially if I'm going to throw the configuration away after three or four days
[00:10] <Loshki> jamil_1: looks like it's ignoring the proxy settings. Are you sure it's set. What does echo $http_proxy say in the window you're running apt-get from?
[00:11] <esj> it's great for semipermanent slouch long-term setups but, for transient "get into the machine, fix some bugs, send the invoice" type of work it's not so good
[00:11] <DJ_HaMsTa> halp! how can i exit out of full screen in virtualbox ?
[00:11] <esj> also, I don't always on the machine so I can't install it or configure it hence the user space part of the request
[00:11] <esj> I was thinking about something like webdav might be one possibility
[00:11] <Loshki> esj: suppose we could give you a 20 line samba config? Would that do it?
[00:12] <magicianlord> wel, the module worked on ubuntu, but not on debian
[00:12] <jamil_1> Loshki: it prints the http_proxy variable's value. I thinks it is set properly because if I do wget google.com, I do get the page.
[00:12] <esj> it would work for cases where I own machine and have. It won't work on various web hosting sites
[00:12] <esj> you know, that would be a really good tool so yeah, I would like it if you're willing to share
[00:12] <jorechp> any people have trouble with tty console out of frecuency with ubuntu 10.04
[00:13] <dody> any help on the boot problem i having
[00:13] <Loshki> jamil_1: then I can't explain why it works for synaptic and not for apt-get. Did you try thune3's suggestion?
[00:13] <wildbat> !anyone
[00:14] <DJ_HaMsTa> whats a host key ?
[00:14] <DJ_HaMsTa> is that the windows key ?
[00:15] <hiexpo> omg
[00:15] <Loshki> esj: my samba config is here: http://pastebin.org/336777. You'll need to make appropriate edits of course, and heed the comment on the first line
[00:15] <esj> thans very much
[00:15] <X-Sleepy-X> How do I start an application like totem and make it play an mp3 file on the host when I am connected trough SSH?
[00:16] <hiexpo> 1totem | X-Sleepy-X
[00:16] <wieshka> X-Sleepy-X: try to add before command DISPLAY=":0.0"
[00:16] <setz> hi
[00:16] <setz> So I just installed 10.04 64-bit, desktop edition
[00:16] <X-Sleepy-X> wieshka: ok thanks
[00:16] <Loshki> DJ_HaMsTa: er, it's an ssh key which uniquely identifies a host, so you can tell if someone tries to impersonate the host or if it gets replaced. At least, that's one definition. Does it fit?
[00:17] <setz> and on the first boot (and subsequent boots), I'm getting grub error 15
[00:17] <hiexpo> !ask | setz
[00:18] <Loshki> X-Sleepy-X: er, you know you can't get remote sound via ssh, right?
[00:18] <X-Sleepy-X> Loshki: I just want the host computer to start playing music
[00:18] <X-Sleepy-X> Loshki: not the client
[00:18] <hiexpo> Loshki,  - hello
[00:19] <wildbat> setz, try reinstall grub2
[00:19] <wildbat> !grub2 | setz
[00:19] <DJ_HaMsTa> Loshki, im trying to exit out of virtualbox but i cant seem to find the host key
[00:19] <setz> will do. Does grub2 have any distinct advantages over grub?
[00:20] <sebsebseb> setz: no
[00:20] <wieshka> Loshki: why - you can restream sound with VLC over SSH tunnel :)
[00:20] <Loshki> X-Sleepy-X: ok, that should work. For quick cli playback, I use mplayer mp3file...
[00:20] <root_> sera
[00:20] <X-Sleepy-X> k
[00:20] <Loshki> wieshka: you can? I had no idea...
[00:20] <sebsebseb> setz: Grub ok, Grub 2 :(
[00:20] <Loshki> hiexpo: hi there
[00:20] <wieshka> X-Sleepy-X:  yeah - mplayer will be better for cli than totem
[00:20] <X-Sleepy-X> ok thanks
[00:21] <wieshka> Loshki: there are many things what you can do with vlc :)
[00:21] <wieshka> X-Sleepy-X: for advanced you can enable VLM interface for VLC and use webpage to control your player remotly :)
[00:21] <Loshki> wieshka: I only use if for dvds. Otherwise I use mplayer. Is there some special tweak you need to restream sound over vlc?
[00:22] <wieshka> Loshki: just listening and streaming interface
[00:22] <albinsson> Hi every one,
[00:22] <albinsson> Do some one have time to help me with an autorun problem? I can't find a similar one on the internet or on the FAQ
[00:22] <wieshka> i mean, in ssh remote host stream your audio
[00:22] <X-Sleepy-X> wieshka: nice, ty
[00:22] <wieshka> on local listen :)
[00:23] <wieshka> but i prefer VLM web interface for controling remotly
[00:23] <wieshka> there are few other remote interfaces for VLC
[00:23] <magicianlord> where do you configure openbox to start automatically wiht startx for all users? usr share?
[00:24] <Tvmble> Needing a hand: I need to copy my primary harddrive into a newly-formatted ext3 partition on another harddrive. I'd like to do this preserving all of my settings, files, permissions, etc. How?
[00:24] <magicianlord> with a hadouken
[00:25] <magicianlord> shinku-hadouken!!
[00:25] <wieshka> magicianlord: there many variants how to run script on startup
[00:25] <magicianlord> wieshka: i know htat i can just edit xinitrc in home, but id like a common setting
[00:25] <jorechp> how to configure mys tty console but i see out of focus or in a corner of my monitor any guy can help me
[00:25] <magicianlord> ty
[00:26] <wieshka> magicianlord: you prefer GUI or CLI ?
[00:26] <magicianlord> cli
[00:26] <gdw2> Tvmble: won't 'cp' work just fine?
[00:26] <wieshka> magicianlord: hmm you can add your software to proper rc.d level
[00:26] <jp77> still trying to figure out how to apply an emerald theme i downloaded for lubuntu
[00:26] <Tvmble> gdw2: I'm a little hesitant about that comment, as the articles I've been reading have disagreed over whether or not that'll keep my permissions, hard links, etc. on the filesystem intact.
[00:27] <wieshka> to start it with gdm
[00:27] <Tvmble> gdw2: command, not comment*
[00:27] <magicianlord> also, after i installed a command line system 10.04  and then xorg and openbox, i have no opengl acceleration with intel. should i reinstall the drivers? it worked in a gnome install
[00:27] <wieshka> brrr openbox is a dekstop manager ?
[00:27] <magicianlord> window manager. plus some other stuff
[00:27] <Monotoko> Tvmble, you could use dd
[00:27] <magicianlord> it is the best
[00:27] <dli> magicianlord, glxinfo|head
[00:28] <Monotoko> Tvmble, it will copy the contents of the HDD byte-for-byte
[00:28] <magicianlord> ok dli . what does that do?
[00:28] <wieshka> magicianlord: i prefer MAC OS X for grafic interface :)
[00:28] <Tvmble> Monotoko: Will it work to move from a full HD to a formatted partition on another HD?
[00:28] <gdw2> Tvmble: I think you're filesystems would ahve to be the same
[00:28] <gdw2> Tvmble: And you'd ahve to have the same MBR
[00:29] <dli> Tvmble, if you want to back a partition, try partimg
[00:29] <check> hello guys. sorry for posting my question again but I had a disconnection. I have a problem with my microphone. It seems that it is not working. Any ideas of how I can fix that will be appreciated :)
[00:29] <Monotoko> Tvmble, it will copy the exact harddrive, you can shrink the partition etc when you get it all on the new harddrive
[00:29] <HotTuna> check, run alsamixer from terminal and look for anything without 00 in the bottom
[00:29] <wieshka> check: check out alsamixer for begin
[00:30] <dli> check, if your microphone is plugged in properly(correct socket), try alsamixer
[00:30] <Tvmble> gdw2, Monotoko, dli: I currently have XP installed on one partition of the destination HD, and would like to move my existing Hardy install into another partition on that destination HD. Will dd do that?
[00:30] <check> HotTuna: Line in and Mic 80pc do not have 00 in the bottom they have MM instead
[00:31] <albinsson> Do some one have the time to help my with a autorun problem were ubuntu can't find the autorun program in a CD/DVD when there is one there?
[00:31] <HotTuna> check, hit m on it to unmute
[00:31] <Monotoko> Tvmble: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=886569
[00:31] <DJ_HaMsTa> how come flash content is as crappy in virtualbox using windows as in ubuntu ?
[00:31] <dli> Tvmble, no need for dd, better to do it manually, mount the partition: rsync -axvHA /* /path/to/dest
[00:31] <HotTuna> check, when ur done hit esc to exit alsa mixer
[00:31] <dli> Tvmble, you will have to modify the /etc/fstab afterwards, though
[00:31] <wieshka> !
[00:32] <dli> Tvmble, and install grub on the new hdd
[00:32] <magicianlord> what's better: gnome-terminal or lxterminal? network manager or wicd?
[00:32] <HotTuna> Tvmble, use sudo grub-install /dev/device
[00:32] <dli> magicianlord, lxde + wicd
[00:33] <magicianlord> dats what i though
[00:33] <Tvmble> dli and HotTuna: Thanks... I'll give that a shot. :D
[00:33] <HotTuna> Tvmble, make sure you do on root of drive
[00:34] <HotTuna> like /dev/sda not 1 or 2
[00:34] <MacGyver_> This might be a bit of a weird question, but... I'm doing some research and for that I need Python 2.2 on Ubuntu 10.04. I'm going to assume there's no package for that anymore. If I compile from source, and run things directly from that 2.2 runtime in an isolated folder, will that ensure that any other installed Python-packages do not get used?
[00:34] <magicianlord> how do i save an image of my current install with dd to an img file?
[00:35] <check> HotTuna: Problem solved :) thank you the sound is very low when i record but thats not a serious problem
[00:35] <HotTuna> check, turn volume up lol
[00:35] <HotTuna> use arrow keys
[00:35] <check> wieshka: Thank you too
[00:35] <check> dli: thank you too!!
[00:35] <dli> magicianlord, try partimg
[00:36] <magicianlord> dli: i will need to research that
[00:36] <HotTuna> magicianlord, what is meant by .img file
[00:36] <HotTuna> you can name it whatever you like and copy it back with dd
[00:36] <magicianlord> i want an image file that i can boot from on a usb stick and then overwrite my hard drive, to restore it all with settings
[00:36] <HotTuna> name it .img then
[00:36] <check> HotTune: what is the S/PDIF option? this one is on mute too..
[00:37] <wildbat> magicianlord, sudo dd if=/dev/sdX9 of=/path/to/img.file bs=4096
[00:37] <check> HotTuna: what is the S/PDIF option? this one is on mute too..
[00:37] <magicianlord> just like dell did with their ubuntu 8.04
[00:37] <magicianlord> ok wildbat ty
[00:37] <HotTuna> sudo dd if=/the/old/drive of=/file.img bs=1M
[00:37] <hiexpo> don't make sense last night you appeared to not know anything HotTuna  now your giving help with knowing what your doing  lol  and by the help your giving it's obvious you do :)
[00:37] <HotTuna> hiexpo, ?
[00:38] <magicianlord> wildbat: and how to restore for a bootable usb stick?
[00:38] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  you were lost last night trying to get wifi going /// oh ya not at proper speed
[00:38] <HotTuna> magicianlord, use unetbootin
[00:38] <magicianlord> on hte image file?
[00:38] <HotTuna> hiexpo, I was lost because its broken in ubuntu not on my pc
[00:39] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  oh ok
[00:39] <HotTuna> forums have alot of info on it
[00:39] <HotTuna> but none has helped me the least bit.
[00:39] <thune3> MacGyver_: not an expert, but if in a shell you export a modification to PATH, putting your test binary dir first. And exporting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to any lib dir that is there too. It should all run using your local install.
[00:40] <My-Computer> what do i need to do to have those choices on login screens
[00:40] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  i don't rem what is the problem with it maybe i can help ?
[00:40] <albinsson> Sorry for asking a third time:
[00:40] <albinsson> But do any one know how to solve the problem were ubuntu can't find a autorun program in a CD/DVD (for example, asus installation disk for asus probe and other essential programs)? If no one has the time or knowlage, please send me to a place who can aid me. (I have scanned the FAQ and internet for help but in vain).
[00:40] <HotTuna> hiexpo, its ok, I gave up but I appreciate your help.
[00:40] <MacGyver_> thune3: Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
[00:41] <HotTuna> albinsson, you need to run a windows program on a cd?
[00:41] <majuk[TXS]> albinsson, Just a guess, but those auto-load programs are probably Windows based.
[00:41] <thune3> MacGyver_: there also may be some python specific environment variables you can set, i don't know
[00:41] <albinsson> I tried both windows and linux ones
[00:41] <albinsson> in wine and without
[00:41] <HotTuna> albinsson, are you trying to install a driver or..? can you provide some more detail
[00:42] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  OK //// that ole saying goes if i quit i never succeeded if i kept trying but never succeeded   I won / because I never stooped trying
[00:43] <albinsson> I'm not trying to install a driver at the moment, but i'm trying to install programs that does this automaticly or others that let me acces part of my motherboard that now is blocked
[00:43] <robin0800> albinsson: I would think asus probe is a windows only program
[00:43] <HotTuna> hiexpo, ok. I get terrible speeds / signal strength from close distance on bcm4312 with any driver.
[00:43] <HotTuna> hiexpo, also, It does work fine on windows xp.
[00:43] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  ok i will find a fix one sec
[00:43] <albinsson> I downloaded a linux version from the asus homepage but with the same result
[00:43] <majuk[TXS]> HotTuna, Get the latest firmware?
[00:43] <HotTuna> so the h/w is not failed.
[00:44] <HotTuna> majuk[TXS], I believe I have tried with the very latest but idk at this point I have tried everything b43 driver ndiswrapper broadcom sta.....
[00:45] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  bcm 4312 who's chipset is that what is the wifi card
[00:45] <scottwolchok> I'm trying to get a custom kernel to boot on a macbook pro. The vanilla kernel works fine. The custom kernel complains at boot that the Disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present. Any idea what driver I'm missing? I've included pretty much all the SATA drivers.
[00:45] <HotTuna> broadcom bcm4312 rev 03
[00:46] <majuk[TXS]> HotTuna, Well, to get my BCom card functional (4318), I had feed the firmware download from the site into 'bcfwcutter'
[00:46] <hiexpo> k
[00:46] <majuk[TXS]> Or something to that effect.
[00:46] <HotTuna> majuk[TXS], I have done that, but the driver provides bad speed, I even tried to cut the f/w out of my working xp driver but to no avail slow speeds / poor signal
[00:47] <HotTuna> majuk[TXS], oh this also works alot better on 9.10
[00:47] <majuk[TXS]> HotTuna, :\ That sucks, my 4318 preforms great.
[00:47] <HotTuna> majuk[TXS], its ok I have a NIC ;-)
[00:47] <majuk[TXS]> Indeed, good sir.
[00:47] <HotTuna> which someone helped me fix also
[00:47] <HotTuna> AAA helped me alot ;\
[00:47] <HotTuna> and someone else but I cant remember who
[00:48] <scottwolchok> verbose boot says that the ext3 filesystem on root is working. after a bit, "init: plymouth main process (78) killed by SEGV signal"
[00:48] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - read this all of it and it will work OK   http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/index.php?topic=281.0
[00:49] <HotTuna> hiexpo, ok ;-D
[00:49] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  i am a wifi guy just was tired last night and did not want to get into it
[00:49] <ukixx-baby> hi ppl any one now if is any ubuntu application folder whit icons like osx ???
[00:49] <Maple12_> Can anyone help with my computer repeatedly crashing?
[00:50] <HotTuna> hiexpo, what is meant by 'wifi guy'
[00:50] <hiexpo> !asl | Maple12
[00:50]  * maco does
[00:50] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  i work wifi testing cards etc and making them work
[00:50]  * maco wrote a program to teach it, if y'all want to learn
[00:50] <Maple12_> this is english
[00:51] <albinsson> Maple12 can you be more specific
[00:51] <majuk[TXS]> !ask | Maple12_
[00:51] <HotTuna> hiexpo, cool, I just saw on that website about low tx power with the sta drivers THAT is my problem i think.
[00:51] <DJ_HaMsTa> maco what program is it ?
[00:51] <scottwolchok> argggh who decided this was a good idea
[00:51] <majuk[TXS]> He didn't mean asl. :P
[00:51] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  with linux
[00:51] <scottwolchok> plymouth can't be removed?!
[00:51] <StaticShock> ubuntu has some method of logging the actions of an installer program, doesn't it?
[00:51] <maco> DJ_HaMsTa: http://launchpad.net/gally-project
[00:51] <StaticShock> there is some command line method of doing this? i used to know, but forgot
[00:51] <ukixx-baby> ubuntu icon application folder? is it any
[00:51] <albinsson> Maple12 what do you do before the computer crashes?
[00:52] <maco> ukixx-baby: do you just want to install an icon theme?
[00:52] <maco> ukixx-baby: or are you looking for one location where all applications are stored? you wont find that
[00:52] <check> HotTuna: I can hear my voice through the headset but when I use skype and when I record my voice cannot be heard any ideas?
[00:52] <ukixx-baby> no i need to get to the icon  application folder... like mac os u now
[00:52] <maco> check: audio driver bug
[00:52] <Maple12_> Well, my computer crashes every few minutes and remarks "Check battery state... [OK]" and it is annoying. I can't live with it
[00:53] <ukixx-baby> do ubuntu have any ?
[00:53] <maco> check: the hardware has an analogue feedback loop which is why you hear it live
[00:53] <hiexpo> ukixx-baby,  - rem this is not mac
[00:53] <Guest40101> Newbie struggles: Things seemed to work on fresh install of lucid lynx until this week.  Now numerous problems, seems to be permissions related: sudo doesn't work ("must be setuid root") ; can't su ("Authentication Failure") ; Update Manager won't successfully install updates ; can't run Root Terminal ; CAN install new programs through Software Center.  Can anyone help?
[00:53] <maco> check: but it's analogue... its built into the hardware, bypassing the OS. your driver needs a quirk to enable it
[00:53] <albinsson> Maple12 do you have a laptop or a stationairy computer?
[00:53] <ukixx-baby> daa i now
[00:53] <HotTuna> check, hrm, does skype use specific devices for the mic
[00:54] <maco> check: please file a bug against the "linux" package:  ubuntu-bug linux
[00:54] <check> maco, HotTuna: what's the next step I should take?
[00:54] <HotTuna> hiexpo, um, forgive me but what does that website intend that I do ?
[00:54] <ukixx-baby> i m big time unix user but i m new to ubuntu
[00:54] <Maple12_> stationary
[00:54] <majuk[TXS]> HotTuna, I'm not sure, that was a 4 year old patch he directed you to.
[00:54] <albinsson> Maple12 check if ubuntu thinks you have a laptop
[00:54] <ukixx-baby> just like now if that any application folder in side the root
[00:54] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - it just will show you how to make more use of your wifi card
[00:55] <StaticShock> anyone know what i'm talking about? there's some program that helps me record all the side effects of a command. what is that program?
[00:55] <ukixx-baby> application plus icons....
[00:55] <HotTuna> check, does skype ask for a device in the settings for your mic ...?
[00:55] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - somethings  or most will not apply to your needs but the fisx will work so be ath
[00:55] <Maple12_> Well, I've made no sense with finding out my OS' assumptions
[00:55] <check> ok I will do that now
[00:55] <arand> ukixx-baby: /usr/share/icons/* or /usr/share/pixmaps/ but that is only for icons /usr/bin/ is where most  binaries are I guess..
[00:56] <hiexpo> ^fix
[00:56] <HotTuna> hiexpo, all I see is some .patch file
[00:56] <majuk[TXS]> StaticShock, You're talking about logging in general, which is already done. You might be able to find the pertinent info in /var/log/messages or, if you're looking for install specific info, /var/log/apt/
[00:56] <majuk[TXS]> StaticShock, use 'cat' to see the content of those files
[00:56] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - ok does it apply to your card?
[00:56] <StaticShock> majuk[TXS], no, that's not what i'm talking about
[00:56] <check> HotTuna: no everything is ok with skype
[00:57] <thune3> StaticShock: strace maybe?
[00:57] <StaticShock> no
[00:57] <StaticShock> something apt-related
[00:57] <StaticShock> i think
[00:57] <Guest40101> anyone see  / responding to my newbie struggles?
[00:57] <HotTuna> check, and everything is unmuted and turned up in alsamixer ?
[00:57] <check> HotTuna yes it is
[00:57] <HotTuna> hiexpo, no.
[00:58] <StaticShock> it allows me to run arbitrary installation programs and maybe adds a revertible record of what happened to apt somehow

[00:59] <Guest40101> Newbie struggles: Things seemed to work on fresh install of lucid lynx until this week.  Now numerous problems, seems to be permissions related: sudo doesn't work ("must be setuid root") ; can't su ("Authentication Failure") ; Update Manager won't successfully install updates ; can't run Root Terminal ; CAN install new programs through Software Center.

[01:00] <HotTuna> check, pastebin aplay -L please
[01:00] <arand> !patch | HotTuna
[01:00] <HotTuna> arand, ty
[01:01] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - there is instructions on how to do it there each patch is different  // all a patch is , is a fix modifying the driver to do what we want it to do
[01:01] <check> HotTuna: should I type pastebin a play - L in the terminal?
[01:01] <HotTuna> check, no.... copy the output of aplay -L in the terminal to www.pastebin.com and link me

[01:04] <HotTuna> check, why?
[01:04] <HotTuna> this is linux ;\
[01:04] <ChogyDan> gz0: I am on 9.10, but the solution is mainly to upgrade to 10.04
[01:05] <check> HotTuna: Maybe it will help with the new changes in AlsaMixer
[01:05] <sebsebseb> gz0:  no what ChogyDan said is wrong
[01:05] <HotTuna> check, no need I assure you...
[01:05] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/index.php?topic=5675.0 i could have that card working in 5 minutes
[01:05] <sebsebseb> check:  gz0  soon if it hasn't already happended,  Firefox in 8.04, 9.04, and 9.10 will all get a proper upgrade
[01:06] <con-man> what has adobe done now
[01:06] <sebsebseb> ChogyDan: ^ messed up auto complte
[01:06] <gz0> sebsebseb: is there anything I can do now to fix it? I can even full screen a flash movie and I have a 7000m nvidia video card :(
[01:06] <patrick> hey
[01:06] <check> HotTuna: It is so strange that I can hear myself from the speakers and I cannot complete a call
[01:06] <ChogyDan> sebsebseb: ok
[01:07] <gz0> ChogyDan: any links you can point me to that explain what your saying?
[01:07] <sebsebseb> gz0: theres a fix for the full screen Flash issue I can link you to, but  I don't know if it also works on 9.04
[01:07] <HotTuna> check, please pastebin that or I don't know how to help you
[01:07] <maco> check: i have the same thing on my other laptop. its a driver problem
[01:07] <gz0> sebsebseb: ok, link me anyways i definitely appreciate it, and thanks as well to ChogyDan for the response
[01:07] <HotTuna> hiexpo, where do I get the source from and what .patch file is correct?
[01:07] <maco> check: i used to live with ubuntu's audio guy. he taught me how to debug some of this, and i know for sure that finding the right quirk is what'll fix that on mine
[01:07] <sebsebseb> gz0: 9.04 is a great release, and you got until end of October with security updates
[01:08] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - ok let me get it for you
[01:08] <Falcon31> Newbie struggles: Things seemed to work on fresh install of lucid lynx until this week.  Now numerous problems, seems to be permissions related: sudo doesn't work ("must be setuid root") ; can't su ("Authentication Failure") ; Update Manager won't successfully install updates ; can't run Root Terminal ; CAN install new programs through Software Center.  Can anyone help?
[01:08] <check> HotTuna: Should I pm you the link?
[01:08] <HotTuna> check, no paste link here
[01:08] <Monotoko> hmmm...my 6.06 computer refuses to upgrade to the newer ubuntu's....yet its connected to the internet...how much of a vulnerability is it?
[01:08] <check> HotTuna: http://pastebin.com/NPKwjbu0
[01:08] <HotTuna> check, so anyone could help you..
[01:09] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=broadcom
[01:09] <ChogyDan> gz0: not really, it was just my experience that flash was terrible on 9.10.  I used a different kernel for a bit, but upgrading to lucid made most of what I did moot.
[01:09] <check> maco: Can you please take a look too? http://pastebin.com/NPKwjbu0
[01:09] <gz0> sebsebseb: Its a fantastic release yes, but this flash issue slows down my entire system, so its making me say ew...
[01:09] <sebsebseb> gz0: well 9.04 is a great release, accept a little something I didn't like about it, but heres the link:  http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/06/fixing-fullscreen-flash-in-ubuntu-1004.html
[01:10] <sebsebseb> gz0: so yeah that might work in 9.04 as well
[01:10] <gz0> ChogyDan: I was thinking of upgrading... but whenever i do all my stuff breaks hehe i spend more time fixing other things then being happy heh
[01:10] <Monotoko> sebsebseb...i didnt like 9.04...my laptop hated it..nothing worked
[01:10] <HotTuna> check, do you have a volume icon in your top right corner
[01:10] <gz0> sebsebseb: fantastic thx
[01:10] <check> yes should i get there?
[01:10] <maco> Falcon31: that sudo one means something's wrong on the permissions on /usr/bin/udo
[01:10] <maco> Falcon31: boot into recovery mode and run: chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo
[01:10] <HotTuna> check, yes click it and hit prefs
[01:11] <check> HotTuna: I am in
[01:11] <Falcon31> maco - thanks much.  will try
[01:11] <Monotoko> Falcon31, try using gksudo
[01:11] <hiexpo> omg -\ check
[01:11] <Monotoko> thats what the software center uses
[01:11] <sebsebseb> gz0: also I love Firefox, but if you got Flash issues in Ubuntu, other browsers such as Epiphany or Galeon, will probably work better with it
[01:11] <Monotoko> just noticed you said you can install from there...
[01:11] <Jordan_U> Monotoko: Actually, Software Center uses Policy Kit
[01:12] <HotTuna> hiexpo, where is my kernel sources dir?
[01:12] <maco> check: i dont even know what command that output came from...
[01:12] <HotTuna> check, go to hardware
[01:12] <Monotoko> Jordan_U, ahha...did it used to use gksudo?
[01:12] <maco> check: im not used to that one... http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh has the usual debugging script
[01:12] <Maple12> I hate my computer... this "Check battery state" thing s annoying. Why does ths happen to old computers and comps with dual Nvidea cards?
[01:12] <KnifeySpooney> How do I start a program in the terminal but be able to close the terminal afterwards?
[01:12] <HotTuna> check, select output + stereo analog input
[01:12] <Jordan_U> Monotoko: Software Center never did, but Add/Remove did (and synaptic and update-manager still do)
[01:12] <thune3> KnifeySpooney: prepend nohup
[01:13] <HotTuna> check, go to input tab and put check in the internal stereo input
[01:13] <thune3> KnifeySpooney: or use ampersand afterward (sometimes fails)
[01:13] <Monotoko> Jordan_U, ahha thanks...methinks my knowledge is slightly out of date
[01:13] <HotTuna> check, close it and try
[01:13] <wildbat> KnifeySpooney, nohup command
[01:13] <Jordan_U> KnifeySpooney: thune3: If you use '&' after the command you also need to run "disown" before you can actually close the terminal.
[01:14] <HotTuna> check, actually, also in the input tab, there is a slider for volume ( I think )
[01:14] <gz0> sebsebseb: ok ill try out ephiphany and galeon
[01:14] <Maple12> What do I use to check if Lucid's using my stsyem like a laptop?
[01:14] <check> HotTuna: I am trying the sound right now
[01:14] <sebsebseb> gz0: sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser or you end up with a game
[01:15] <HotTuna> check, if thats not it I really am not sure....
[01:15] <gz0> ahah thx
[01:15] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  that is for it kernals change daily  long as your running 2.6.20 or greater it should be ok if it don't work oh well nothing lost but it will most likely
[01:15] <albinsson> Maple12 dubble click on my name and I will try to help you
[01:15] <HotTuna> hiexpo, where is my kernel sources folder?
[01:15] <check> HotTuna: soulds from skype have disabled
[01:16] <Maple12> double clicks just pull up 2 WHOIS peices
[01:16] <sebsebseb> gz0: not sure when last Galeon was, but yeah that was the previous default Gnome browser before Epiphany,  however distros tend to use Firefox instead.  As also a secondary browser I really like Konqueror its a KDE app, but can run that in Gnome, its also rather fast.
[01:16] <HotTuna> check, what?
[01:17] <KnifeySpooney> Jordan_U: thune3: thanks, both work fine.
[01:17] <hiexpo> HotTuna, - hold on
[01:17] <check> HotTuna: I cannot hear the other end in the skype test call
[01:17] <ChogyDan> gz0: it looks like you should disable compiz also
[01:17] <HotTuna> check, :\
[01:17] <Jordan_U> KnifeySpooney: You're welcome.
[01:18] <check> HotTuna: I restored the previous settings.. tried to make a test call.. I can hear myself louder this time... I cannot explain how and why
[01:18] <HotTuna> check, so it works ??
[01:18] <HotTuna> check, I have had very strange issues on 10.04 so I'd believe just about anything ;\
[01:18] <extor> If I wanted to install ubuntu over PXE would I download the "alternative install CD" or is that meant for other stuff? I have a PXE server up and running already and want to install on a couple of boxes with no CDs...

[01:19]  * extor whistles
[01:20] <wildbat> hmmm, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer | extor
[01:20] <check> HotTuna: It doesn't fully work but I guess it will be fixed soon!! :) thank you for everything
[01:20] <Dargon> if cron was encountering errors, they would be listed in the cronlog, correct?
[01:20] <HotTuna> check, sorry to hear that but i'm glad you could get something out of it for now.
[01:20] <wildbat> or this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot | extor
[01:21] <extor> doesnt answer my question
[01:21] <extor> alternate CD or regular?
[01:21] <hiexpo> HotTuna, - sorry didn't notice they did not give that let make a auto install out of thaT  patch for you i will have it ready tomorrow ok / cause if u goof it your screwed  and it will damage the operating kernak so back of it for tonight i will be back with a fix tomorrow  ok

[01:25] <jhite> What verizon phone shoudl i get if i want to tether it
[01:26] <paul__> LINUX ELSE
[01:26] <jhite> with ubuntu of course
[01:26] <gz0> ChogyDan: compiz is disabled already
[01:27] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - we do not use those procedures to hack we are penetration testers to see what a hacker can do  /// the only way to think like a hacker is be one  lol
[01:27] <SlidingHorn> mib_mib: sudo apt-get build-dep libxml2-dev
[01:27] <SlidingHorn> mib_mib: *then* run your apt-get install
[01:27] <mib_mib> SlidingHorn: okay cool, what does build-dep do? why's it getting the wrong packages?
[01:28] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - there is a thing as good hacking changing anything on a comp is hacking it
[01:28] <HotTuna> hiexpo, ok. well so you are going to make an ubuntu package for 10.04 or?
[01:29] <SlidingHorn> !build-dep|mib_mib
[01:29] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - no i don't like 10.04 it was a bad distro in my eyes so i am not gonna waste my time with it it hasto many bugs
[01:30] <HotTuna> LOL
[01:30] <mib_mib> ubottu: oh nice, doesn't apt-get build and compile things?
[01:30] <mib_mib> ubottu: or it just uses a package that is already compiled or something
[01:30] <Monotoko> hmmm thats not good...i rebooted my VPS...it didnt come back up -.-
[01:30] <HotTuna> ok well whatever you come up with ill give it a try, I have dd after all... I must go now but ill talk to ya tomorrow.
[01:30] <xcanadianmanx> i'm trying to disable home directory encryption and one step tells me to reboot into root via grub. I've selected the OS i want to boot into and pressed 'e' to edit the parameters but i have no idea what do do from there.
[01:30] <AnxiousNut> how can i know how much battery left i have from the command line?
[01:30] <JusticeZero> Hey, I have a garbly error message on my bootup screen. I tried to get help on the forums and they fixed one of two problems.
[01:31] <bhim> removable media
[01:31] <mib_mib> SlidingHorn: hmmm i'm still getting the same error when i do sudo apt-get install libxml2 now
[01:32] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - if ubuntu don't get it together i am going to go back with gentoo /// in which what ubuntu stands for  but is a derivative of debian
[01:32] <SlidingHorn> hrmm...have you tried to apt-get install the packages it says are broken?
[01:33] <JusticeZero> Something about "The di????r ?e f????w?n?o????is????????y?ye o?n???p?????se?? (overwriting it,) Continue to wait or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery." Does anyone have any ideas how to figure this out? I have a theory that it might be seeing the NTFS dual boot partition and choking on it, but I don't actually know what it's complaining about.
[01:33] <mib_mib> SlidingHorn: it says it depends on libxml2, which i already have installed, but i guess it needs version 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4 but 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4.2 is to be installed?
[01:33] <Maple12> I'm back, with info on my BIOS
[01:33] <mib_mib> libxml2-dev: Depends: libxml2 (= 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4) but 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4.2 is to be installed
[01:33] <mib_mib> E: Broken packages

[01:34] <hiexpo> dual boot = train wreck to me
[01:34] <drunkNcrew> I'm hoping this is an easy adjustment. But, could someone tell me how to make Pidgin show the chat history in a chat window? Like when I'm chatting with a friend and I close the chat window, the next time I get a message, all the past stuff we typed to each other is gone. I like to see the past stuff as well, like in Empathy.
[01:34] <jr2> just made ubuntu cluster with mpich2 system unstable
[01:35] <JusticeZero> I occasionally have a couple programs that use .net that wine chokes on that I want to use.
[01:35] <infid> how do you run a cronjob once every 4 hours,  * 4 * * * ?
[01:35] <scyther3> Hi there. Does anyone know  a good linux app (that can run on ubuntu) for recovering deleted files? thanks
[01:35] <mib_mib> should i do sudo apt-get remove libxml2 and reinstall it? a lot of stuff will be removed it seems
[01:35] <jr2> just made ubuntu cluster with mpich2 system unstable HELP
[01:36] <JusticeZero> thus I have a small windows partition on the back of the drive.
[01:36] <hiexpo> !cron | infid
[01:36] <kaflowski> could anyone tell me where I can find a "Bourne-type shell, typically bash or ksh", so I can run rkhunter?
[01:36] <JusticeZero> I don't know if that's what's causing the FRICKING UNREADABLE error message though.
[01:36] <JusticeZero> because, well, I can't read the error message. :p
[01:37] <hiexpo> JusticeZero,  - relax no need to yell at the people helping here
[01:37] <HermanDE_> kaflowski, On most any consoles of Linux
[01:37] <mib_mib> infid: use the / operator, i.e. * */4 * * *
[01:37] <StaticShock> in checkinstall, what is the "package group"?
[01:37] <StaticShock> what does that term mean?
[01:37] <kaflowski> HermanDE: GNOME Terminal?
[01:37] <mneptok> infid: 0 0,4,8,12,16,20 * * *
[01:37] <JusticeZero> Not yelling at anyone here, yelling at whoever coded the boot screen to display a two line long error message on one single line. Bah.
[01:37] <infid> =/
[01:37] <infid> which one is it
[01:37] <jr2> made cluster with mpich2 master keeps freezing
[01:37] <HermanDE_> kaflowski, That would work....
[01:38] <kaflowski> HermanDE thank you
[01:38] <mib_mib> what does 'broken package' mean when using apt-get?
[01:38] <kaflowski> means you have to ship it back to the post office
[01:38] <fontis> so where's mark shuttleworth hiding
[01:38] <HermanDE_> JusticeZero, Sounds cool....  :)  My framebuffer poops on the Ubuntu boot screen....
[01:38] <mneptok> infid: either will work
[01:39] <stercor> Is it possible to install 10.04 without losing the contents of the hard drive?
[01:39] <hiexpo> mib_mib, means it did not compleatly install something failed // so read to see what failed
[01:39] <Arpad2> hello
[01:39] <fontis> hey
[01:39] <hiexpo> !hi
[01:39] <Arpad2> after distro upgrade to lucid, there was a grub upgrade too, with the result that i cant boot win7 with grub. can smb help me with that? thank you for help!
[01:39] <fontis> stercor, what do you mean?
[01:39] <mib_mib> hiexpo: it says libxml2-dev: Depends: libxml2 (= 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4) but 2.6.32.dfsg-5ubuntu4.2 is to be installed, how do i get this to work
[01:39] <JusticeZero> I get to the end of th "Ubuntu . . . . ." thing and get a line of garable at the bottom. obviously an error message, but the important part is covered up. =(
[01:39] <HermanDE_> stercor, It will replace applications on your harddrive....  So, what are you looking to do?
[01:40] <stercor> HermanDE_: Keeping /home, /etc, and /usr/local
[01:40] <StaticShock> what is a package group? what is it used for?
[01:40] <HermanDE_> JusticeZero, Is that in the GRUB Boot Loader ?
[01:40] <hiexpo> mib_mib, open synaptic and type the package name and install it first
[01:40] <Jordan_U> Arpad2: You probably accidentily installed grub to your windows partition.
[01:40] <test34> "netstat -tp" reveals lots of connection opened by gvfsd-http, why?  I tried to resolved some of the IP addresses but wasnt able to
[01:40] <setz> JusticeZero: check files in /var/log/
[01:40] <Ademan> how can I bridge two network interfaces?
[01:40] <HermanDE_> stercor, Shouldn't touch /home or /usr/local....
[01:40] <xTheGoat121x> Is there a way to change UNE to regular Ubuntu?
[01:40] <setz> i'm not sure which one it'd be in, but probably in there
[01:41] <MACscr> I hope you guys dont mind, but im going ot list a test email address here of mine in hope it gets picked up by some email harvesters as i am going to use it to teach spamassassin on what is spam, etc<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:41] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay-l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:41] <Arpad2> Jordan_U: thx, do you know the "cure" for this? :)
[01:41] <HermanDE_> stercor, /etc may be modified depending on the application...  It will not remove items that are not part of the applicaton...  And will usually prompt about changed files....
[01:41] <stercor> HermanDE_: The partitioning instructions only have 2 partitions. A really big one (the whole disk) and a swap partition.
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Arpad2: First make sure that the grub-pc package isn't set to install to any partitions by running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc"
[01:42] <JusticeZero> Grub comes up, I select, it says 'Starting up..' then a graphical boot splash which is black with Ubuntu" ". . . . .", then after a little while, under those I get "Continue to wait or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery." "The di????r ?e f????w?n?o????is????????y?ye o?n???p?????se??"
[01:42] <patrick_> why does x keep crashig on me?
[01:42] <HermanDE_> stercor, Uh.....
[01:42] <stercor> HermanDE_: It seems as though the only option is to reformat the whole big partition.
[01:42] <HermanDE_> stercor, Are you installing from the CD?
[01:42] <stercor> y
[01:42] <Arpad2> Jordan_U: ok , I do what you say!:)
[01:42] <JusticeZero> do you want me to hit S or M?
[01:42] <HermanDE_> stercor, That will blow out the whole hard drive.....
[01:42] <stercor> HermanDE_: That's what I figured...
[01:43] <HermanDE_> stercor, Just insert the CD from within Ubuntu....
[01:43] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Arpad2: That command will ask you some questions, the one you care about is the one about "install devices". Make sure that only your drive (/dev/sda) and *not* any partitions (like /dev/sda1) are selected as install devices. You can leave all other settings at their defaults (some will be blank, that's normal)
[01:43] <HermanDE_> stercor, Let ubuntu do the update.....
[01:43] <JusticeZero> that's where i'm at on the laptop beside me. (S works but it bugs me to have to skip through an error message I don't understand for a normal boot.)
[01:43] <stercor> HermanDE_: Ooo...that sounds just fine!
[01:44] <Jordan_U> Arpad2: Then, to recover your windows partition boot sector (and get windows bootable again) follow this guide: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[01:44] <HermanDE_> JusticeZero, Sounds like there is some data loss there.....
[01:44] <Arpad2> Jordan_U: ok, on sda is 7 os sdb is xubunt
[01:44] <patrick_> why does x keep crashig on me?
[01:44] <HermanDE_> stercor, Ubuntu is *smart* that way....
[01:44] <HermanDE_> stercor, Or use Synaptic/Update manager and let it do the right thing.....
[01:44] <stercor> HermanDE_: what command do I give it?  I'm on a CLI.
[01:44] <kyso1995> [3]nertia is 2nd lol
[01:44] <JusticeZero> It's illegible because the "Continue or.." is over the top of the error message, and I can't read it as a result.
[01:45] <Arpad2> Jordan_U: thank you for your help, I ll follow your instructions!
[01:45] <kyso1995> oops wrong chat
[01:45] <Jordan_U> Arpad2: You're welcome.
[01:45] <hiexpo> fresh install = success  upgrading from one to the other = a fragile train wreck and will take fatalities
[01:45] <mib_mib> i have to remove libxml2 and install a different version but it is removing a lot of packages, is this going to be a bad thing?
[01:45] <mib_mib> i mean a LOT of packages
[01:45] <HermanDE_> stercor, Then use "aptitude update" and "aptitude upgrade"
[01:45] <stercor> apt-get update fails with the GPG signature failure...
[01:45] <stercor> I'll try it your way.
[01:46] <hiexpo> mib_mib,  post it in pastebin before hand to be safe
[01:46] <HermanDE_> stercor, apt-get is different than aptitude....
[01:46] <HermanDE_> stercor, Fix the keys for apt.....
[01:46] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:47] <stercor> HermanDE_: aptitude fails at the same place.  Where do I get the keys?
[01:47] <mib_mib> dammit, firefox stopped working, now i know i'm screwed
[01:47] <JusticeZero> I'm just sitting at said error message right now, let me know how you want me to exit out of the error and I can start putting in commands to check.
[01:47] <HermanDE_> stercor, Here is a whole website that describes everything needed....  http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade
[01:48] <stercor> HermanDE_: Sounds fine.  I'll go there.
[01:48] <hiexpo> HermanDE,  who told u that
[01:48] <ejv> help! i just logged out and gnome crashed, now my gnome is all messed up!? does this have something to do with the nvidia update?
[01:49] <mib_mib> wow that was bad
[01:49] <HermanDE_> hiexpo, The wind.....
[01:49] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:50] <stercor> HermanDE_: Sounds good...
[01:51] <Loshki> JusticeZero: I think it means that something failed its fsck check. If I were you, I would boot the recovery cd and fsck all your partitions...
[01:51] <mib_mib> how do i change out my libxml2 version if it has a lot of depedencies
[01:51] <JusticeZero> OK..
[01:52] <Loshki> mib_mib: apt-cache rdepends libxml2 shows a ton of things depend on it. Why do you need to upgrade it?
[01:52] <HermanDE_> mib_mib, Just install a newer version.....
[01:52] <HermanDE_> mib_mib, dpkg --install (downloaded deb)
[01:53] <Loshki> mib_mib: usually, you don't remove something to upgrade it. You just upgrade it, to avoid exactly this problem...
[01:53] <Falcon31> maco - from earlier question on permissions, no luck booting into recovery mode (couldn't figure out how), but in neither xterm or Failsafe Gnome was I allowed to chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo . gksudo didn't work either.  Still can't make su or sudo work.
[01:53] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:53] <hiexpo> what u think there is 2  different repos  one is apt and one aptitude ///  Re: What's differences between apt-get and aptitude ?
[01:53] <hiexpo> yes.. for installing, it is mostly the same.
[01:53] <hiexpo> for older version of ubuntu (6.06 or earlier), the main difference is when uninstalling packages.
[01:53] <hiexpo> aptitude will also remove unused dependencies while apt-get will only install the particular package.
[01:53] <FloodBot1> hiexpo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:53] <mib_mib> so i canceled it but my shit is screwed now that i remoed a bunch of packages - how cna i recover from this?
[01:53] <ffffff> hey guys, i'm trying to use a dual monitor set up but i can't get my primary monitor to be the one on the left & when i try to change it it just reverts back
[01:53] <hiexpo> sorry
[01:53] <maco> Falcon31: booting into recovery mode means rebooting and holding shift (if grub2) or esc (if old grub) and then when you get the menu, choose "recovery mode" and then choose "root shell"
[01:54] <zombie-robot> anyone got a tut on how to make a .deb package?
[01:54] <maco> Falcon31: you can only do that command as root, so since you cant use sudo for it, you need recovery mode
[01:54] <ejv> please help, i updated nvidia thru apt-get, now my display is horribly broken...... :(
[01:54] <stayf> i am installing ubuntu desktop from live cd and it is taking me to login screen to login as "ubuntu" and i do not know the password
[01:54] <mib_mib> i need to get back to a stable build of the regular stuff is there somehow i can do this?
[01:54] <hiexpo> zombie-robot,  - what u need on making a deb.
[01:54] <JusticeZero> Ah, I loaned out my burned copy, i'll burn a new one and try that, thanks.. is there any confusion in fsck that I should know how to do first?
[01:54] <zombie-robot> i want to make a theme pack
[01:54] <HermanDE_> mib_mib, Did you mix stable with (really cool unstalble stuff)?
[01:54] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:55] <Falcon31> maco - thanks. will try again.
[01:55] <maco> stayf: it shouldnt do that, but the password is either also "ubuntu" or its just-hit-enter
[01:55] <Loshki> mib_mib: if apt-get still works, you can reinstall everything you removed. If it doesn't, you'll probably have to reinstall from scratch. A list of removed packages should be in /var/log/dpkg.log in chronological order...
[01:55] <hiexpo> zombie-robot,  do you already have a package as a rpm or are u doing it from scratch ?
[01:55] <zombie-robot> i want to make a theme pack with wallpapers gtk themes icons etc.
[01:55] <ejv> it says "Failed to initialize nvidia kernel module" what do I do ?
[01:56] <stayf> maco: thank you
[01:56] <zombie-robot> scratch
[01:56] <hiexpo> zombie-robot,  keep asking  / sorry i can't help ya on that one
[01:56] <extor> Is there any way to start a ssh server on a remote workstation that you are PXE installing to, so you can finish the installation without attaching a monitor and keyboard?
[01:56] <mib_mib> Loshki: okay, i'm going to try that -- can i list them all on one line? i.e. sudo apt-get install one,two,three?
[01:56] <stayf> maco: i am still getting authentication error
[01:56] <Loshki> mib_mib: yes, but separated by spaces, not commas...
[01:57] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[01:57] <maco> stayf: did you check the disc for errors? cuz it shouldnt be going to a login screen *at all* so maybe whats making it do that is also whats making it refuse passwords?
[01:57] <HermanDE_> extor, Sure...  Just install a static complied SSH server in the PXE bundle....  Ensure you have a username/password that matches the downloaded bundle....
[01:57] <stayf> maco: yes, and strangly that selection leads me to login screen too
[01:58] <wildbat> i have a problem with the lid button. the system won't react to the the button unless system was suspended once; and after the suspension, the screen off for 0.5 sec at the moment  the button is pressed and released
[01:58] <maco> stayf: sounds like your disc is bad
[01:58] <extor> What on earth is a static compiled ssh server?
[01:58] <kanhiya> i want to know that how do i connect to internet using bluetooth modem as i do in windows
[01:58] <extor> Any chance I can start a vnc instead, kinda like with centos?
[01:58] <stayf> maco: i installed it on another desktop a few days ago and it worked fine. the live test did not bring a login screen; i was lead straight to the desktop
[01:59] <PianoMan> Hi guys. Ubuntu one music is queued to download, and just stays queued.
[01:59] <dsnyders> Hi all!  I have a wide screen monitor.  Is it possible to "divide" it so that it shows two workspaces?
[01:59] <kanhiya> i want to know that how do i connect to internet using bluetooth modem as i do in windows
[01:59] <HermanDE_> extor, a binary that does not have any library dependencies...  Just a flat binary that runs.....
[01:59] <AAA> extor  it means that ssh was compiled with everything it needs, it doesn't depend on dynamic libraries
[01:59] <hiexpo> HotTuna,  - wow u got quiet
[02:00] <extor> ahhh ok...kinda complicated. Any other possibilities such as a vnc server like centos has?
[02:00] <Loshki> extor: install either openssh-server or vnc. But if there's no keyboard, you're going to have to add it to the pxe image somehow..
[02:00] <HermanDE_> extor, Only if the xserver starts....  And you would have to setup the PXE to start X then VNC server....
[02:01] <dsnyders> kanhiya, You'll have to give us more info, such as the bluetooth modem model
[02:01] <mib_mib> Loshki: so i have a list of the packages, how do i make apt-get just skip them if it can't install them?
[02:01] <slyboots> Hmm, anyone here setup AFP shares on ubuntu using netatalk? http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/ubuntu-as-mac-file-server-and-time-machine-volume/ Followed that guide..
[02:01] <HermanDE_> extor, This is kind of easy....  There are a couple of good static SSH server in the world....
[02:01] <slyboots> But the problem is, the "share" shows up in OSX but it seems the server is rejecting my user/pass
[02:01] <extor> HermanDE, offtopic but if its so easy then why doesnt the ubuntu installer include such functionality? Or does it perhaps?
[02:01] <HermanDE_> extor, Just install it in your PXE...  And it starts immediatly....  user/passwords are static as well....  So that would be a simple text file.....
[02:02] <setz> Hi again, I'm having a problem with nvidia drivers. I installed the current drivers using jockey-gtk. This allowed me to use 1024x768, which this monitor usually uses, but it only allows me to use it at 60hz, using gentoo, and older ubuntu distros, and windows, I can do 1024x768 at 75 and 85 hz. Why is nvidia-settings only allowing me to use 60hz?
[02:02] <slyboots> Now I followed this gudie in Ubuntu 9.10 and it worked perfectly..
[02:02] <Loshki> mib_mib: there's a -m option to ignore missing packages...
[02:02] <HermanDE_> extor, Putting unchangeable usernames/passwords into distributions is usually considered bad....
[02:02] <extor> How exactly do I "install it in my pxe"? Do I need to mess around with kernel/append parameters? kickstart files?
[02:02] <ejv> help! i updated nvidia thru apt-get, and now my entire display is broken... what do I do?
[02:03] <ejv> I tried restoring xorg.conf, didn't work, i tried running 'nvidia-xsettings' didn't work.
[02:03] <HermanDE_> extor, Starting an SSH port automatically is again not in the interest of a distribution....  Because you would need a static user/pass....
[02:03] <Loshki> extor: for better or worse, the developers decided an ssh server isn't part of the default desktop installation. That seems a reasonable choice...
[02:04] <AAA> ejv  can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:04] <slyboots> Anyone? Im pretty stumped -.-
[02:04] <HermanDE_> extor, Open up the PXE image...  Look for the root filesystem....  Put the ssh binary into /usr/bin
[02:04] <extor> centos includes vnc as an option
[02:04] <extor> HermanDE, and that's EASY? :o
[02:04] <HermanDE_> extor, look for the init.d or inittab...  And insert the command to start the ssh....
[02:04] <calmsiva> iva
[02:04] <HermanDE_> extor, Ensure it is *after* the network detection......
[02:04] <kbp> right! does anyone know where is the location of the sound theme files in Ubuntu?
[02:05] <Loshki> extor: centos isn't really a desktop distro. Now stop whining about what centos does, ok?
[02:05] <stayf> when i choose install on my live cd, am i supposed to be lead to the live desktop (there's an install icon there), but why am i not being lead to the install without having to boot into live cd first?
[02:05] <calmsiva> even after installing thro synaptic - wine is not showing in the applications list - using 10.04 - need help
[02:05] <sublimepua> wow haha so this whole channel just has one room?
[02:05] <sublimepua> sounds crowded
[02:05] <saad_> hi
[02:05] <Out`Of`Control> Hi all. I had problem with Flash player no sound.
[02:06] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[02:06] <sebsebseb> sublimepua: no
[02:06] <sublimepua> install firefox oss helper thing
[02:06] <mib_mib> okay, well my system is sscrewed and i'm reinstalling -- whats the most stable version with the best package support?
[02:06] <sublimepua> i had the same problem
[02:06] <mib_mib> 10.04?
[02:06] <saad_> the problem is in your graphics card man
[02:06] <mib_mib> or is that too new
[02:06] <Out`Of`Control> I found what make this. When i install libxine1-ffmpeg i get no sound from flash player
[02:06] <sebsebseb> sublimepua: loads of Ubuntu channels, and other channels on this Freenode network,   /list will list loads of them
[02:06] <saad_> i know that
[02:06] <stayf> Jon--: you've said that about 500 times now
[02:06] <dale> check 1 - 2
[02:06] <Out`Of`Control> But when i remove it i get no sound from amarok.
[02:06] <Loshki> stayf: the idea is you get to test out the distro on your hardware before committing to an install. I think the alternate CD will allow you to go straight to install...
[02:06] <sublimepua> 9.10 is stable, but i would advise the last LTS
[02:06] <kbp> Out`Of`Control: exit any music app then restart Firefox
[02:07] <Jon--> stayf: Saying it again => Still needing assistance. That is what this IRC is for.
[02:07] <kbp> Out`Of`Control: exit amarok, run firefox then run amarok (must be in order)
[02:07] <deusex_> flashplayer is very difficult to configure over linux
[02:07] <sublimepua> thats true
[02:07] <Purpley> Can someone help me, ubuntu wont recognize my dvd and cd drives
[02:07] <Loshki> stayf: every 15 minutes is considered a reasonable repeat rate...
[02:07] <Purpley> But windows will
[02:07] <sublimepua> drivers?
[02:07] <gartral|p> Gwibber on unr is broken, facebook isn't autherizing like it should and I think its because the add button is below the screen boundery... and the window won't resize any smaller
[02:07] <mib_mib> what is LTS?
[02:07] <stayf> Loshki: i know, but even when i choose to go straight to the install (rather than selecting try ubuntu without changing your computer)
[02:07] <prince_jammys> !lts > mib_mib
[02:08] <stayf> Loshki: it still boots live cd
[02:08] <sublimepua> long term support.= lts
[02:08] <Out`Of`Control> But i do get sound from flash player  and virtual box. When i remove libxine1-ffmpeg. But no sound from amarok
[02:08] <kbp> does any one know how to disable showing "Has join..." "Has left..." the channel?
[02:08] <gartral|p> !lts
[02:08] <deusex_> anybody who had problems with crysis over wine?¿
[02:08] <Loshki> stayf: sounds like a bug. You could report it...
[02:08] <mib_mib> okay so 10.04 is probably the best to get then
[02:08] <sublimepua> crysis doesnt like wine. especially not if you have an intel gpu
[02:08] <sublimepua> yeah. use lucid
[02:08] <deusex_> nope nvidia gpu
[02:08] <sublimepua> thats the current one
[02:08] <stayf> Loshki: sounds like a waste of my time
[02:08] <Out`Of`Control> Btw i am on 64 bit Ubuntu
[02:09] <Purpley> Can someone help me, ubuntu wont recognize my dvd and cd drives
[02:09] <Loshki> kbp: depends on your client. What are you using?
[02:09] <kbp> Loshki: pidgin
[02:09] <stayf> Out`Of`Control: what is the browser?
[02:09] <deusex_> wtf cd dvd drives ?¿?¿
[02:09] <sublimepua> have you tried crossover instead of wine? its got many fixes
[02:09] <Falcon31> maco - you're a genius.  Thanks so much.
[02:09] <Out`Of`Control> firefox
[02:09] <maco> Falcon31: np
[02:09] <Loshki> stayf: you can't have it both ways. If you won't report bugs, you don't get to whine about how they aren't fixed...
[02:09] <deusex_> no
[02:09] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[02:09] <deusex_> but will try it
[02:09] <lee_> Hello. I need help with grub. I have downgraded to legacy and lost my xp boot. Anyone know how to get it back?
[02:09] <Out`Of`Control> With browser all is fine now. flash works fine
[02:10] <Loshki> kbp: sorry, never used it. Check your docs for 'conference mode'...
[02:10] <Jon--> lee: Do you know where XP is? ie /dev/sda*?
[02:10] <sublimepua> does anyone know how penumbra works on wine?
[02:10] <kbp> Loshki: thanx! "conference" is the word im looking for
[02:10] <AAA> Purpley  are they plugged in and turned on? does the BIOS see them?
[02:10] <Purpley> Can someone help me, ubuntu wont recognize my dvd and cd drives but yet windows vista will, They also open fine but wont eject via the terminal
[02:10] <sublimepua> is it supported well?
[02:10] <stayf> Out`Of`Control: there is not a 64-bit version of flash player, but there are alternatives. the only other option that should work is installing 32-bit firefox on a 64-bit system and installing 32-bit flash
[02:10] <lee_> it looks like its on dev/sda1
[02:11] <Purpley> AAA, Most likely considering windows can use them
[02:11] <wildbat> I have a problem with the lid button. the system won't react to the the button unless system was suspended once; and after the suspension, the screen off for 0.5 sec at the moment  the button is pressed and released.
[02:11] <AAA> Purpley  you have 2 disk drives, and ubuntu doesn't see either, correct?
[02:11] <Purpley> AAA, Yes
[02:12] <scyther3> Hi there. Does anyone know  a good linux app (that can run on ubuntu) for recovering deleted files? thanks
[02:12] <Jon--> lee: Does it say it is NTFS?
[02:12] <Out`Of`Control> stayf yeah thanks.
[02:12] <lee_> I ran sudo fdisk -l and it says HPFS/NTFS
[02:12] <stayf> Out`Of`Control: :)
[02:12] <Purpley> AAA, But awhile ago I could install ubuntu via a cd fine
[02:13] <Jon--> lee: Have you tried sudo update-grub from the terminal? It should be able to detect XP.
[02:13] <stayf> Loshki: I found an alternative download with a text-based installer. thank you
[02:13] <Loshki> !recover | scyther3 none of the tools are great, in my opinion, but see here:
[02:13] <Loshki> stayf: excellent
[02:13] <lee_> I dont remember if I have. I'll try that again. I followed a tutorial so I may not have.
[02:13] <Purpley> AAA, When I go to Computer I see both cd/dvd drives but I cant eject them and they dont detect disks
[02:13] <mib_mib> if i upgraded mmy version to 10.04 from the current one, would this fix all the missing packages?
[02:13] <Jon--> lee: Ubuntu 10.04?
[02:14] <lee_> yes
[02:14] <Jon--> lee: Yeah, try a sudo update-grub. Should work for ya.
[02:14] <AAA> Purpley  do this $
[02:14] <AAA> Purpley  $ sudo  lshw | grep -iA4 cdrom
[02:14] <lee_> Awesome guys. Anyway I can tell if I got it back without rebooting?
[02:14] <Out`Of`Control> stayf do i need to report it about libxine1-ffmpeg cousing no sound in flash and virtual box?
[02:14] <Jon--> lee_: Yeah, message me.
[02:14] <Loshki> mib_mib: I'm not sure. Would you consider installing 10.04 from scratch and then reconfiguring what you need...
[02:15] <mib_mib> Loshki: yeah.... its in a VM so its a little more work, but i'm going to try
[02:15] <Jon--> lee_: I'll have a look at grub.cfg and make sure it looks okay, but, 99% chance it will. It's very easy for grub to do XP on its own.
[02:15] <Purpley> AAA, Listed some info about the two including the fact that one is a reader and ones a writer, want me to pastebin it?
[02:16] <AAA> Purpley  you should see both your drives. and what happens when you type $ eject ?
[02:16] <Jordan_U> lee_: Why did you downgrade to grub legacy?
[02:16] <Loshki> mib_mib: well, backup anything important first. If you're willing to do a from-scratch install, you've nothing to lose by attempting an upgrade first. If it all goes wrong, well you were prepared to install from scratch anyway
[02:16] <AAA> Purpley  no need. put a cd or dvd in
[02:16] <slyboots> Gah, stupid mac -.-
[02:16] <Purpley> AAA, OK I just put one in
[02:17] <comwilson> Okay, I accidentally deleted the network manager icon from the top panel, and I can't find it in the 'add to panel...' window, is there any way other way to get it back?
[02:17] <AAA> Purpley  this is ubuntu 10.4 correct? did anything pop up on the screen?
[02:18] <Purpley> AAA, Yes and no
[02:18] <fontis> Is there any good currency comparing widget out there like the one for Windows 7 that I can use in ubuntu?
[02:18] <khem_> anybody now of some software to record a users input / output ?
[02:18] <AAA> Purpley  can you pastebin $ dmesg | tail -n 50
[02:18] <fontis> khem_, sound or video?
[02:18] <khem_> fontis: no just keyboard
[02:19] <Jordan_U> khem_: Who are you spying on?
[02:19] <fontis> ah, no idea then sorry
[02:19] <khem_> Jordan_U: a certain user :)
[02:19] <fontis> you mean a keylogger :p
[02:19] <kanhiya1> dsnyders: i am using a chinese phone and it is working fine nder windows
[02:19] <khem_> fontis: yes that would be awesome. if possible to get his / her output aswell would be awesome but not needed 100%
[02:20] <micael> is there a program like xnview for ubuntu 10
[02:20] <slyboots> Anyone nay idea, I've been logging but having *NO* luck with this at all
[02:20] <slyboots> anyone here used netatalk?
[02:20] <Purpley> AAA, No need it just repeats two messages, [ 1621.828665] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[02:20] <Purpley> [ 1621.828671] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[02:21] <AAA> Purpley  sounds like a bad disk or reader

[02:26] <adarsha> my updates are not working in ubuntu lucid. can someone help?
[02:26] <StonedSlacker> Hi guys. I just installed ubuntu 8.04/EMC on an extra partition but it does not show up as a choice. I have ubuntu 9.1 already as my main os and windows xp for no reason really. There is no menu.lst in my /boot/grub directory but there is in the /boot/grub directory of the ubuntu 8.04 partition and it has the new installation defined in it. Is that too rambling? lol
[02:26] <adarsha> i get an error saying some packages could not be downloaded. it doesn't connect to the update servers.
[02:26] <kanhiya1> anybody listening me?
[02:26] <AAA> Purpley  can you pastebin ls -l /media; mount ?
[02:26] <Jordan_U> StonedSlacker: Boot 9.10, run "sudo update-grub"
[02:27] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[02:27] <Loshki> kanhiya1: yes, apparently you want to tether your ubuntu via a chinese phone. Maybe someone in #ubuntu-cn will know?
[02:27] <StonedSlacker> Jordan_U:Done! Thanks! Now for a reboot to see if it worked.
[02:27] <AAA> Purpley  oh and also $ ls -l /dev/fd0
[02:28] <Jordan_U> StonedSlacker: You're welcome.
[02:28] <Purpley> AAA, Alright
[02:28] <Out`Of`Control> Is there a way to get more fonts? In appearance Preferences. Any one please
[02:29] <acovrig> Out`Of`Control, gnome-look.org
[02:29] <AAA> Out`Of`Control  have you tried $ apt-cache search fonts?
[02:29] <SlidingHorn> !fonts
[02:30] <StonedSlacker> Jordan_U: What do you make of this? http://pastebin.slackadelic.com/p/CGOWO299.html
[02:30] <Out`Of`Control> Thank you folks! :)
[02:30] <dsnyders> Hi all!   Is there a way to split a monitor so that two workspaces fit on it?
[02:31] <Jordan_U> StonedSlacker: You can ignore that error, it's harmless. If you want to get rid of it then "sudo rm /boot/grub/device.map".
[02:31] <StonedSlacker> Thanks!
[02:31] <Purpley> AAA, http://pastebin.com/hPcGF7Ki

[02:37] <micael> can i install files that end with tgz in ubuntu
[02:38] <unop> !source | micael
[02:38] <Jon--> cavej03: Without -C it uses the current dir [pwd]
[02:38] <cavej03> jon, ya I knew about that modifier i just didnt know where to put it
[02:38] <Purpley> AAA, As am I
[02:39] <Purpley> AAA, Perhaps a modprobe might work?

[02:39] <Jon--> I am having an issue with sound in Ubuntu. I have an Acer Aspire 6530 with sound not working. alsamixer is all turned up. Output of aplay -l: http://pastebin.com/WuxCvHBm
[02:39] <unop> micael, .tgz files usually contain source code .. see !compile
[02:39] <AAA> Purpley  what kind of drives are they? sata? ide? scsi?
[02:39] <Purpley> Also, I have a webcam that im pretty sure isnt supported by ubuntu, Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0595:4343 Zoran Microelectronics, Ltd Digital Camera EX-20 DSC
[02:39] <Purpley>  Is there something like ndiswrapper for webcams?
[02:40] <Purpley> AAA, Im not sure anyway to check without opening it up
[02:40] <micael> unop thanks i am reading it now but i am new in this
[02:40] <unop> micael, what software is this?
[02:40] <maraja> is there a command to remove repositorys on terminal?
[02:41] <micael> unop nxviewMP
[02:41] <micael> i have downloaded the file and unpacked it
[02:42] <unop> micael, is there a README or INSTALL file among the unpacked files?
[02:43] <trimeta> I have a couple of questions about disk drive checking; anyone want to reassure me that I didn't horribly mess up my system?
[02:43] <comwilson> Oh, wow... Okay, I found it in the 'add to panel' window. It wasn't called network manager, though.
[02:43] <iflema> maraja    nano /etc/apt/sources.list    ctrl+o to save then ctrl+x to exit followed by a sudo apt-get update
[02:43] <wildbat> I have a problem with the lid button. the system won't react to the the button unless system was suspended once; and after the suspension, the screen off for 0.5 sec at the moment  the button is pressed and released.
[02:44] <ocatacoo> if using nscd do I need to set up the nscd.config or will it learn from somewhere
[02:44] <micael> unop no install what i can see but a readme
[02:44] <micael> unop To install XnViewMP in KDE/Gnome menu, change the pathname of xnview's folder in XnView.desktop (Exec & Icon)
[02:44] <micael> and move it to /usr/share/applications
[02:44] <micael> sudo cp XnView.desktop /usr/share/applications
[02:44] <AAA> maraja  I usually just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and put a #comment in front of what I want to remove. then apt-get update
[02:45] <acovrig> AAA, what time is it 4u, u seem talkative when I goto bed lol
[02:45] <unop> micael, right, so you'll have to decide where you want to place the xnview directory .. i suggest placing it in /opt/
[02:45] <AAA> acovrig  central
[02:45] <trimeta> I mean, would restarting a disk check less than 15 minutes into checking a 4.5 TB RAID5 array mess up that array?
[02:45] <maraja> humm thanx, i was hoping to get some command inverse add-apt-repositorys
[02:46] <unop> micael, then you change the location in the .desktop file to /opt/xnviewmp  (assuming that's the directory name)  and copy the .desktop file to /usr/share/applications/
[02:46] <jill> Can I ask a question...
[02:46] <unop> !ask | jill
[02:46] <micael> unop ok i will try
[02:46] <flaccid> recommended/de facto way to chroot/jail shell users in shell ?
[02:46] <acovrig> I have a laptop and a server, how do I have the laptop sync w/the server with a progressbar? I've tried rsync and unison
[02:47] <trimeta> acovrig: rsync --progress
[02:47] <jill> I am trying to install a Lexmark printer on Ubuntu 10.04 and it simply isn't cooperating. Does anyone know how to do this?
[02:48] <fuzzybunny69y> hey guys for some reason every once in a while my screen gets all corrupted. I believe the problem started happening when I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. I have tried taking a screenshot but the problem doesn't show up in the screenshot, so I have taken a picture with my phone. http://i47.tinypic.com/oix7c2.jpg
[02:48] <jill> Fuzzy, are you running Skype or anything when it happens?
[02:49] <fuzzybunny69y> jill, no it happens randomly even when im just at the desktop it will do that then a little while later it will fix itself
[02:49] <razz1> I am moving from vista to ubuntu and was wondering what's the best partition scheme. I am thinking 10GB for root, 30GB for home, and rest 40GB for vista. I am not going for a separate swap partition as I have 4GB of ram. any suggestions?
[02:49] <Jordan_U> fuzzybunny69y: Is everything actually upside down or did you just have the phone upside down?
[02:50] <HotTuna> razz1, I'd use atleast 1gb for swap...
[02:50] <fuzzybunny69y> oh sorry lol i had the phone upside down
[02:50] <ocatacoo> can someone give advice on nscd
[02:50] <fuzzybunny69y> it is just the screen splitting thing that is annoying
[02:50] <iflema> maraja if you do manually remove, the sources you require may reside in the sources.list.d folder
[02:50] <razz1> Hottuna, If I really need swap I can switch it on later, right?
[02:50] <HotTuna> razz1, yea
[02:51] <fuzzybunny69y> oh and I turned compiz off and the problem still happens
[02:51] <razz1> hottuna, I just wanna keep my partitions to the minimum
[02:51] <HotTuna> razz1, why not just make a 1gb swap though, it only gets used if you need it.
[02:51] <maraja> i found something here http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html
[02:51] <d5005907> hello niggas

[02:51] <jill> Thanks, DG.
[02:52] <Jordan_U> !language | d5005907
[02:52] <d5005907> Jordan_U: ?
[02:52] <HotTuna> d5005907, the N word
[02:53] <d5005907> are you serious
[02:53] <junior_mint> wow fuzzybunny
[02:53] <razz1> hottuna, I used ubuntu before and it hardly uses swap. and I like to keep the partitions to a minimum
[02:53] <HotTuna> pretty much
[02:53] <junior_mint> that's pretty amazing
[02:53] <ocatacoo> caught
[02:53] <d5005907> the sociecity is messed up
[02:53] <fuzzybunny69y> junior_mint, what do you mean
[02:53] <cavej03> ah
[02:53] <cavej03> so close
[02:53] <cavej03> ...
[02:53] <junior_mint> what on earth happened to your screen?
[02:53] <unop> d5005907, we're more surprised you think that word is even acceptable ..
[02:53] <d5005907> society
[02:53] <junior_mint> does that happen all the time?
[02:53] <HotTuna> razz1, ok all I know is if a program locks up really good and then uses all of your memory, your system can crash w/ data loss just fyi
[02:53] <d5005907> unop: words are just words
[02:53] <fuzzybunny69y> junior_mint, sorry it isnt supposed to be upside down
[02:53] <Kardos> hey guys, i just downloaded the ubuntu iso, how can i convert it to a Live USB ?   the website explains how to do it on windows/mac/ubuntu, but i am running Fedora..... and fedora's "liveusb-creator" failed
[02:53] <HotTuna> razz1, but some people get away fine without a swap
[02:53] <junior_mint> what have you tried
[02:53] <d5005907> they are not good or bad
[02:54] <unop> d5005907, and they have meanings and connotations - so just behave according to the rules here.
[02:54] <junior_mint> did you try to reformat your entire drive?
[02:54] <junior_mint> i've plenty of ubuntu user-friends
[02:54] <ocatacoo> offensive
[02:54] <IdleOne> d5005907: but that word is not acceptable in any Ubuntu forum.
[02:54] <junior_mint> and i've never seen that in my life
[02:54] <razz1> I am not saying  I will not use swap but just that not a separate partition
[02:54] <micael> unop i cant move it it say i am not the root and when i  do sudo root then after the pass i get         sudo: root: command not found
[02:54] <ocatacoo> is there a support channel for ubuntu
[02:54] <HotTuna> razz1, swap must be a seperate partition ?
[02:54] <fuzzybunny69y> junior_mint, yeah it just started happening it is kinda annoying
[02:54] <CineScope> tuna, wouldn't that happen with swap too? it would just take some time to fill the swap.
[02:54] <d5005907> ok n word's
[02:54] <Jordan_U> ocatacoo: You're in it.
[02:55] <dsnyders> Hi all!   Is there a way to split a monitor so that two workspaces fit on it?
[02:55] <HotTuna> razz1, sorry didn't mean to use a ? mark their.
[02:55] <stayf> my cd drive is not fast enough to install ubuntu and i need an alternate install option
[02:55] <unop> micael,  well,   sudo -i  will give you a root shell.  but perhaps all you want is this.   sudo cp your.desktop /usr/share/applications/
[02:55] <HotTuna> stayf, usb ?
[02:55] <razz1> Hottuna, I am sure swap does not have to be a separate partition.
[02:55] <HotTuna> razz1, it does
[02:55] <stayf> HotTuna: how do i do that?
[02:55] <unop> d5005907, obfuscated swearing is still swearing.  please don't do that.
[02:55] <Jordan_U> stayf: What do you mean "not fast enough"? Does the install actually fail, or is it just too slow for you?
[02:56] <NetScr1be> Stayf I used SD card
[02:56] <HotTuna> stayf, download an ubuntu desktop 386 or whatever iso and use unetbootin on whatever OS and it will turn a usb stick in to bootable, then set ur bios to  boot from usb.
[02:56] <stayf> Jordan_U: it failed
[02:56] <ocatacoo> ohh my this is a support channel
[02:56] <Jordan_U> stayf: What was the exact error?
[02:56] <stayf> HotTuna: what is unsetbootin?
[02:56] <unop> ocatacoo, off course.
[02:56] <d5005907> unop: ok mr perfect
[02:56] <ocatacoo> needs some policing
[02:56] <IdleOne> !guidelines | d5005907
[02:57] <HotTuna> stayf, unetbootin its a program that puts .iso image files on to a usb stick and makes it bootable.
[02:57] <stayf> HotTuna: a program for what?
[02:57] <HotTuna> stayf, ^
[02:57] <NetScr1be> stayf I don't have a CD
[02:57] <unop> HotTuna, did you manage to fix your issues yesterday?
[02:57] <stayf> HotTuna: i have no windows computers available, all ubuntu :P
[02:57] <keffie_jayx> good evening all, what is the module that handles usb ports in lucid
[02:57] <ocatacoo> how many sqatters are there??
[02:57] <HotTuna> stayf, its on ubuntu too...
[02:57] <HotTuna> stayf, sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[02:57] <stayf> HotTuna: where?
[02:57] <keffie_jayx> my usb hubs seem to be down
[02:57] <stayf> HotTuna: ok
[02:57] <IdleOne> ocatacoo: Do you have a support question?
[02:57] <ocatacoo> does anyone know nscd?
[02:57] <HotTuna> unop, um sort of
[02:58] <razz1> hottuna, are you sure that swap needs a separate partition, it's just a file and I am sure it can reside inside ubuntu partition
[02:58] <HotTuna> unop, it works at 10.0mbps consistently now on a dif kernel with the driver u suggested, but some times it works faster
[02:58] <stayf> HotTuna: so i can put it on a flash drive or something?
[02:58] <ocatacoo> does it learn and if from what?
[02:58] <HotTuna> stayf, its not just a file....
[02:58] <unop> razz1, that's right, you can have a swap file instead of a swap partition.
[02:58] <fuzzybunny69y> hey guys i will brb I am just seeing if the problem happens with this livecd
[02:58] <NetScr1be> keffie_jayx, what does lsusb do for you?
[02:58] <stayf> HotTuna: i know
[02:58] <HotTuna> oh yea?
[02:58] <HotTuna> well im sorry I learned something
[02:58] <HotTuna> however I have never heard of a swap file.
[02:59] <stayf> HotTuna: i should've reworded that
[02:59] <HotTuna> stayf, yea you can and I told you how already :-D
[02:59] <unop> HotTuna, very strange issue that - I hope you filed a bug report so that it can be looked into.
[02:59] <HotTuna> unop, i think AAA said he did
[02:59] <stayf> HotTuna: how large must it be?
[02:59] <HotTuna> we worked for a long time on it
[02:59] <HotTuna> stayf, I don't know
[02:59] <n2diy> Can a standard install be used to do a network install on another box?
[02:59] <ocatacoo> IdleOne: are you live or memorex?
[02:59] <stayf> HotTuna: ok

[03:00] <stayf> HotTuna: darn. i don't have 1gb. can i use my external hard drive?
[03:00] <HotTuna> stayf, yea
[03:00] <razz1> unop, thanks mate. saved me a lot of time
[03:00] <ocatacoo> you asked I have asked did you not follow?
[03:00] <keffie_jayx> NetScr1be:  and two others one says 2.0
[03:00] <unop> razz1, np
[03:00] <stayf> HotTuna: ok thanks
[03:00] <HotTuna> stayf, you will lose all the data probably though on the hard drive
[03:00] <HotTuna> so back it up
[03:00] <IdleOne> ocatacoo: you mentioned policing. Can you please stay on topic. if you wish to chat you are welcome to join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:00] <rtronk> by default is /var/www (apache2) owned by root on ubuntu?
[03:00] <stayf> HotTuna: it's empty :P

[03:00] <unop> rtronk, yes
[03:00] <IdleOne> ocatacoo: I saw your question. I don't know what ncsd is
[03:01] <HotTuna> stayf, just point unetbootin to your .iso of ubuntu and ur usb stick
[03:01] <rtronk> how can i change it so its www-data owner/group?
[03:01] <Purpley> Is there a way to compile support for my Zoran Microelectronics camera? I have the drivers for windows
[03:01] <unop> rtronk, why do you want to do that? it's not recommended.
[03:01] <|_ocke> what
[03:01] <ocatacoo> what are you refering to? the question is about nscd
[03:01] <IdleOne> sorry nscd
[03:01] <razz1> unop, what is the best way to move data from vista to ubuntu
[03:01] <wildbat> which package you ppl recommend for proxy server?
[03:02] <unop> razz1, depends on what kind of data you're talking about.
[03:02] <ocatacoo> Ohh you are Idle Idle

[03:02] <rtronk> i want to make it so that my user is in the group that has access to read/write,
[03:02] <unop> razz1, well, just mount the windows partition -- and copy the files from there? simple actually.
[03:02] <rtronk> is it better to run apache2 as root?
[03:03] <unop> rtronk, well, if you want apache to be able to accomodate uploads.  create a new directory like /var/www/uploads -- and change the permissions on it
[03:04] <NetScr1be> keffie_jayx, run tail -f /var/log/messages then connect something and see what you get
[03:04] <unop> rtronk, the reason why this is not recommended for /var/www is because if apache is compromised in anyway, then people can change stuff relating to your website -- and i'm sure you don't want that.
[03:04] <HotTuna> Jon--, how are you testing ?
[03:04] <pokoko222> how can i join more iso parts in one?
[03:04] <keffie_jayx> NetScr1be:  is that the same as dmesg?
[03:05] <Jon--> HotTuna: YouTube and .mp3 in VLC
[03:05] <razz1> unop, so copy and paste is the best option. I was just wondering if there was a way ubuntu can scan my windows drive and move them to home folder and segregate them accordingly
[03:05] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: What are you trying to accomplish exactly?
[03:05] <pokoko222> Jordan_U i have 3 files with extensions iso.001, iso.002 and so on
[03:05] <cavej03> does anyone have experince with pvr on linux
[03:05] <unop> rtronk,  sudo mkdir -p /var/www/uploads;  sudo chgrp www-data /var/www/uploads; sudo chmod g+rwx /var/www/uploads;
[03:05] <pokoko222> i need to combine them somehow
[03:06] <cavej03> im looking for a good frontend to go with mythtv
[03:06] <NetScr1be> keffie_jayx, except tail is live and -f(ollow) pots new messages
[03:06] <cavej03> xbmc is nice but doesnt support fastforwarding and rewinding
[03:06] <NetScr1be> posts
[03:06] <unop> razz1, ahh, yes, there is something -- but as far as i know, it's part of the installer -- not sure if there's a package.
[03:06] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: cat iso.??? > iso.complete
[03:06] <HotTuna> Jon--, is it a ati sound blaster ?
[03:07] <Jon--> HotTuna: I don't know how to tell
[03:07] <pokoko222> Jordan_U what?
[03:07] <rjune> when did ati make soundblaster?
[03:07] <HotTuna> Jon--, I just see SB which is usually sound blaster
[03:07] <HotTuna> rjune, exactly
[03:07] <maco> rjune: uhhh didnt?
[03:07] <rjune> maco, Creative Labs makes sound blaster. it's an audio card.
[03:07] <rjune> ATi makes Video Cards
[03:08] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: "cat" is a terminal command for "catinating" files. How comfortable are you with the terminal?
[03:08] <maco> rjune: right... so "didn't"
[03:08] <HotTuna> lol
[03:08] <Jon--> HotTuna: It works fine on Ubuntu 9.04 and up out of the box, this box is 8.10 though. [can't change it]
[03:08] <HotTuna> what a dumb argument
[03:08] <razz1> cavej03, I am planning on using MYTHtv, I presently use vista media center, love it but will be moving to ubuntu soon, how good is it? and does it have any issues? I used media portal for some time, very disappointing. I hope MYTHtv is better
[03:08] <stayf> HotTuna: the drive is not showing up as an option
[03:08] <rjune> maco, when didn't ati make sound blaster ... nmind.
[03:08] <HotTuna> stayf, how is it formatted
[03:09] <rjune> razz1, I've generally been happy with mythtv.
[03:09] <HotTuna> stayf, try sudo unetbootin
[03:09] <stayf> HotTuna: it's fat iirc
[03:09] <cdw32> hey everyone. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I need to update my video driver, but i am unsure as to what version I already have and where to get a newer version
[03:09] <razz1> unop, doing copy and paste  manually is tedious.
[03:09] <edu> a
[03:10] <decay33> AAA is there a program where there is a person on my desktop that talks to me
[03:10] <stayf> HotTuna: i am using sudo
[03:10] <razz1> rjune: is mythtv a resource hog?
[03:10] <Jordan_U> cdw32: Why do you think you need a newer driver?
[03:10] <HotTuna> stayf, not sure then, unetbootin see's my stick ;\
[03:10] <rjune> razz1, I've not found it to be such, but I had a seperate server and client.
[03:11] <unop> razz1, admittedly, yes.  but it's also the safest way.
[03:11] <Jon--> HotTuna: Did you say that to me? Awfully rude.
[03:11] <rjune> note the past tense, my frontend died.
[03:11] <cdw32> Jordan_U: well my vid quality suck, thats the only thing i can think of
[03:11] <HotTuna> Jon--, well I was going to try to figure it out ;\
[03:11] <stayf> HotTuna: is fat allowed?
[03:11] <unop> razz1, i tried looking for something to help you, but it turns up nothing practical.
[03:11] <pokoko222> Jordan_U ok i got the iso file now. But now it wants me to burn it on cd, i cant open it otherwise, is there a way to mount it on virtual drive?
[03:11] <HotTuna> Jon--, and say what to you
[03:11] <Jordan_U> cdw32: What graphics card?   This sucks, but I'm living with it.  I'm trying to view OO impress and OO writer on separate screens.  No matter which screen I launch it from, it always opens on the left and I can't drag it right -- what can I do???
[03:12] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: You can also right click the file in the file manager and choose "Open with archive mounter"
[03:12] <Jon--> HotTuna: Haha, thought you were referring to my 8.10 comment
[03:13] <HotTuna> Jon--, i try not to argue on the internet since I can't shoot anyone ;\
[03:13] <pokoko222> Jordan_U tried that, does not open anything
[03:13] <cdw32> Jordan_U: to be honest i have no clue what card, let me dig around...the video does not match the audio track the picture freezes every second...not a smothe picture
[03:13] <Blue1> cdw32: sounds like windows
[03:13] <NetScr1be> tyrosine, I have similar issues w/ OpenOffice presentation
[03:13] <Blue1> cdw32: or an old ati card
[03:13] <tyrosine> NetScr1be: how do you get over this?
[03:13] <Jordan_U> cdw32: Have you tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers?
[03:13] <HotTuna> Jon--, sorry I really don't use 8.10 and this is a 10.04 support channel ;\
[03:13] <pokoko222> Jordan_U what is mountpoint?
[03:14] <razz1> unop, I am not getting rid of vista completely, so even if only folders like documents, pictures, music, etc, all the common folders are copied over I will be happy. I have a lot of data, to move it manually is a nightmare. and for the rest I can mount the vista drive and grab it when I need it
[03:14] <danielminter> cdw32: What kind of computer are you running this on? Laptop? Desktop?
[03:14] <cdw32> Blue1: ITS  everything presentations screen savers
[03:14] <Jon--> HotTuna: Well, what would you do if it was 10.04 with same issue? ;P
[03:14] <HotTuna> Jon--, thinking
[03:14] <cdw32> Jordan_U: the onlything listed there is my wireless driver
[03:14] <NetScr1be> I changed the prefs to use two displays but it seems to mes sup future presentations
[03:14] <decay33> anyone? is there a program using ubuntu where person shows on desktop and talks to me?
[03:14] <NetScr1be> mess  up
[03:14] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: It is a directory that you will be able to access the iso's contents through. "/mnt" is a good directory to use.
[03:15] <Blue1> decay33: let's not go there
[03:15] <HotTuna> Jon--, it shows up, but you hear nothing, do the programs complain about no sound device or do they play?
[03:15] <pokoko222> Jordan_U i execute that and i get: you must specify the filesystem type
[03:15] <Blue1> cdw32: what kind of card to you have?  hint:  lspci | grep VGA
[03:15] <razz1> rjune:  I will be running myth tv on the same system. I hope it does not stress the resources. and does it offer PIP
[03:15] <Jon--> HotTuna: Nothing complains so far. Want me to run VLC from CLI with verbose?
[03:15] <decay33> why not Blue1
[03:15] <HotTuna> Jon--, and ur sure alsamixer everything has a 00 under it and volume is up?
[03:15] <cdw32> Blue1: one second
[03:16] <rjune> razz1, PIP only if you have two tuners I think
[03:16] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: Then it's not a valid iso for some reason. Where did you get this set of iso file parts from?
[03:16] <HTT-Bird> Ubuntu's kernel-package spits out Ubuntu-ified kernels, right? :)
[03:16] <razz1> rjune: I have two HD tuners.
[03:16] <gotpun> n.net
[03:17] <cdw32> Blue1: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation System Controller Hub (SCH Poulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 06)
[03:17] <decay33> Blue1 why not?
[03:17] <razz1> rjune: PIP is the only one missing missing in vista MC and of the air epg sniffing
[03:17] <Blue1> cdw32: not an intel guy but let me schlep for a second
[03:17] <unop> razz1,  apparently https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows/TransferringFilesAndSettings says there's an application called "Open MoveOver" but the project seems to have disappeared. you might find it floating around the net tho.
[03:17] <cdw32> Blue1: thanks i am really flying blind here
[03:18] <rtronk> to add a user to a group
[03:18] <rtronk> do i do groupadd or addgroup username group ?
[03:18] <Blue1> cdw32: it's been my experience (Ymmv) intel isn't well supported yet
[03:18] <unop> rtronk,  adduser user group  # will work
[03:19] <unop> rtronk, sudo needed off course
[03:19] <HotTuna> Jon--, you got any .wav files
[03:19] <edu> hi hi
[03:19] <edu> all
[03:19] <Jon--> HotTuna: I can find one on the internet well enough. This MP3 works fine though and it's VLC, I doubt it's a playback issue.
[03:20] <HotTuna> Jon--, yea just aplay says to test with a .wav
[03:20] <edu> hey someone know how to sincronize and ipod shuffle 4gb?
[03:20] <RxDx> i have 3gb o ram.. do i need swap?
[03:20] <edu> i can't
[03:20] <edu> :S
[03:21] <Jon--> HotTuna: I'll find one
[03:21] <Blue1> cdw32: this may/may not help:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance
[03:21] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: Ahh, it's not a data CD, it's an audio CD (which doesn't have "files" and therefore can't be "mounted")
[03:21] <oobe> ubottu, hello are you just a bot
[03:21] <Jon--> HotTuna: Got a wav
[03:21] <edu> fucking ipod shuffle
[03:21] <cdw32> Blue1: anything will help at this point, i cant stand the vid anymore...any thoughts as to why the driver didnt show up under hardware drivers?
[03:21] <HotTuna> Jon--, get in the dir with the .wav and run aplay -ss file.wav

[03:23] <|enigma|> anyone out there to help me
[03:23] <HotTuna> stayf, does the pc have usb boot option in bios?
[03:23] <Blue1> cdw32: uname -a
[03:23] <Jordan_U> pokoko222: Try opening it with Applications > Sound and Video > Rhythmbox Music Player (it might have a slightly different name, I don't have a GUI in front of me currently to check)
[03:23] <stayf> HotTuna: 'removable devices' ?
[03:23] <stayf> i'd assume
[03:23] <HotTuna> stayf, you know what a bios is correct?
[03:24] <stayf> HotTuna: yes
[03:24] <cdw32> Blue1: 2.6.32-22-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 3 22:02:19 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:24] <HotTuna> stayf, it should say usb boot or something close...
[03:24] <HotTuna> or usbkey or something
[03:24] <Blue1> yea 32 bit
[03:24] <stayf> HotTuna: i set 'removable devices' as the first boot option
[03:24] <HotTuna> ok
[03:24] <stayf> HotTuna: well it's still writing
[03:24] <razz1> unop: openmoveover sounds like the one I am lookin for. disappointing that it vanished.
[03:24] <Blue1> cdw32: yeah 32 bit
[03:24] <cdw32> Blue1: is that good or bad? lol
[03:24] <HotTuna> stayf, never seen removeable devices, what kind of pc /bios?
[03:24] <stayf> HotTuna: when it finishes copying maybe i will see it
[03:24] <|enigma|> I just want to know whether I I got 3D acc. on my laptop which is running Ubuntu  2.6.32-22-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 3 19:31:57 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linu
[03:25] <HotTuna> Jon--, you did check alsamixer right, and everything does have a 00 under it to unmue it?
[03:25] <Blue1> cdw32: sometimes things work diff. in a 64 bit environ.  have you tried:  System/Administration/Hardware Drivers I assume?
[03:25] <razz1> unop: thanks once again. Do you know anyting  abt getting a bluetooth headset working in ubuntu.
[03:25] <cdw32> Blue1: yes and the only driver that shows there is the one for my wireless card.

[03:27] <HotTuna> Jon--, from the looks of it its working just fine, im pretty stumped .... can you look in /proc/asound/cards
[03:27] <razz1> anyone using zimbra desttop mail in ubuntu

[03:33] <HotTuna> Jon--, well, your driver is loaded, looks like the right one, you checked your mixer settings they are ok, aplay says your playing audio. im stumped something is a miss, its either really not working on 8.10 or something is muted somewhere......
[03:33] <cdw32> Blue1: i called dell they say that they dont support linux issues...
[03:33] <Blue1> cdw32: yeah and they prolly don't do american express either

[03:35] <Blue1> Jordan_U: true that

[03:41] <Blue1> cdw32: beg pardon?
[03:41] <philsf> |enigma|, what exactly are you trying to do?
[03:41] <HotTuna> Jon--, another hour and twenty mins or so or till my g/f comes and cries for me to come to bed ;-\
[03:42] <cdw32> you said this might help-
[03:42] <junior_mint> if enigma is asking about compiz
[03:42] <|enigma|> there are few VMs I need to enable the 3D for those
[03:42] <philsf> decay33, try the software center
[03:42] <junior_mint> if anyone is able to offer me help with octave
[03:42] <junior_mint> pm me
[03:42] <stayf> Jordan_U: that's desktop edition?
[03:43] <|enigma|> but apparently I guess my host laptop which is Compaq 6720s has Ubuntu and not enable for 3D
[03:43] <Jordan_U> stayf: A smaller CD might be less likely to have errors. If you use the netboot CD rather than the minimal CD it's even smaller, and will only read the CD once during boot (everything it needs from the CD is loaded immediately into RAM, then the rest grabbed from the network)
[03:43] <Jon--> HotTuna: Alright. I'll do a reboot in a bit
[03:43] <HotTuna> Jon--, wait
[03:43] <stayf> Jordan_U: sounds great. it's ubuntu desktop correct?
[03:44] <|enigma|> trying figure out whether it is 3D enable or not even i tried glxinfo | grep rendering
[03:44] <Jordan_U> stayf: It will result in the same installation (if you choose the defaults), but the installer is pseudo text based and ugly as sin :)
[03:44] <HotTuna> Jon--, also add to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[03:44] <HotTuna> options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-2 enable_msi=1
[03:44] <|enigma|> it gives error so, I really believe my 3D is not working
[03:44] <stayf> Jordan_U: thank you so much :D
[03:44] <Jordan_U> stayf: You're welcome :)
[03:45] <dabaR> pseudo-text based or pseudo text-based
[03:45] <stayf> text-based
[03:45] <|enigma|> do I have to do these
[03:45] <|enigma|> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:46] <HotTuna> Jon--, if that doesn't work I'd try OSS
[03:48] <HotTuna> Jon--, do you have pulse-audio installed ?
[03:48] <philsf> |enigma|, try grep -i gl /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:48] <HotTuna> Jon--, dmesg | grep -i hda
[03:48] <decay33> how do i open a *.sit file
[03:48] <|enigma|> grep: /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[03:49] <Dougdoug4> Hello! I have a question regarding using the Pendrive Linux Universal USB creator thing. When using it with 10.04 i386 i have some issues... The flash drive is a 1GB Kingston drive, and it HAS worked before...
[03:49] <Dougdoug4> I select the 'format drive' option and format the filesystem of the USB as fat32 when i create the USB. I also choose 'no persistence'
[03:49] <Dougdoug4> are any of these settings incorrect? because when i boot the usb installer i create, it doesn't work
[03:50] <stayf> Jordan_U: is this a minimal version of ubuntu?
[03:50] <Jordan_U> Dougdoug4: What happens when you try to boot it?
[03:50] <philsf> |enigma|, try grep -i glx /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:50] <philsf> |enigma|, and pastebin the result
[03:50] <stayf> Jordan_U: it's a full installation, just a minimal disk. correct?
[03:50] <xangua> Dougdoug4: If you have problems with usb creator try them unetbootin
[03:50] <Jordan_U> stayf: Correct.
[03:50] <stayf> Jordan_U: server edition / desktop edition? it reminds me VERY much of the server installation
[03:51] <Jordan_U> stayf: It's exactly the same installer as used with Ubuntu server
[03:51] <mdg> anyone here know how to use mplayer-nogui?
[03:51] <|enigma|> http://pastebin.ca/1884821
[03:51] <HotTuna> mdg, man mplayer-nogui
[03:51] <stayf> Jordan_U: so i'm installing ubuntu server?
[03:51] <|enigma|> that is my /etc/X11 struture
[03:51] <Jordan_U> stayf: No, it's the same installer with different default options.
[03:51] <mdg> HotTuna: I tried -
[03:52] <philsf> |enigma|, grep -i glx /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:52] <stayf> Jordan_U: it's desktop? just verifying in plain text
[03:52] <Jon--> HotTuna: Still nothing
[03:52] <|enigma|> http://pastebin.ca/1884822
[03:52] <Jordan_U> stayf: Yes.
[03:52] <stayf> Jordan_U: k
[03:52] <stayf> Jordan_U: thank you
[03:52] <Jordan_U> stayf: You're welcome.
[03:52] <HotTuna> Jon--, are you running pulse audio ?
[03:53] <HotTuna> Jon--, dmesg | grep -i hda
[03:53] <|enigma|> Mobile Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100, up to 384-MB shared system memory
[03:54] <philsf> |enigma|, your 3D should be available
[03:54] <|enigma|> are you sure
[03:54] <|enigma|> why then glx out put is error

[03:55] <Jon--> HotTuna: http://pastebin.com/9gwQBpBP
[03:55] <|enigma|> it is error
[03:58] <whileimhere> hi can anyone tell me what it means to have a file whitelisted by the host?
[03:58] <razz1> anyone have issues with bluetooth after installing ubuntu, when I use the live disk it does not enable bluetooth.
[03:59] <bodzilla> white listed means okay-ed  generally
[03:59] <acovrig> I have a laptop and a server, how do I have the laptop sync w/the server with a progressbar? I've tried rsync and unison - a progress bar for the entire operation not for each file
[04:00] <philsf> |enigma|, dunno, sorry
[04:00] <philsf> |enigma|, but glx is what's required for 3D, and the easiest way to check is usually turning on desktop effects
[04:00] <|enigma|> okey thanks for helping me out
[04:00] <philsf> |enigma|, and your glx is loaded and working according to the log
[04:01] <Jon--> Back
[04:01] <Jon--> Whoever was assisting me
[04:01] <|enigma|> okey it is perfect then
[04:01] <|enigma|> got to figureout how to enable vms 3d

[04:25] <micah> anyone know how to transfer files from ubuntu hardy heron to a flash drive?
[04:25] <matt_keys> I'm running 10.04 desktop. When I click Places -> Computer it shows "Multi Disk Device". It creates a UUID of 54a91ca4-1805-47ee-80d5-eb2d98e7ffab, but until I do that the UUID doesn't show up in blkid
[04:26] <matt_keys> (when I double click the multi disk device)
[04:26] <micah> anyone know how to transfer files from ubuntu hardy heron to a flash drive?
[04:26] <matt_keys> How do I tell it to auto start that?
[04:27] <micah> anyone know how to transfer files from ubuntu hardy heron to a flash drive?
[04:28] <sebsebseb> micah: Put Flash drive in and it should detect it.
[04:30] <sebsebseb> !pm > micah
[04:30] <aLemmer1> With Gnome how can I add a menu entry for opening a directory?
[04:30] <micah> Operation not supported by backend
[04:30] <micah> is what it says when i try to transfer the file to the usb drive
[04:30] <xangua> aLemmer1: just bookmark it in nautilus and it will show in Places
[04:30] <decay33> xangua it wont extract with 7zip
[04:31] <john__> does anyone have issues with nvidia drivers smushing or distorting text when scrolling
[04:31] <sebsebseb> micah: not sure,  wait around and someone else will be able to help though I guess
[04:31] <ejwaxx> john__: *scroll scroll scroll* nope, not here...what driver version are you using?
[04:31] <daveyboy> john__, i don't right now
[04:31] <Stupendoussteve> Hey how can I manage the running services in Lucid? They got rid of Administration > Services?
[04:32] <sebsebseb> micah: and repeate question after a while, if no reply
[04:32] <Nomad_> grrr,  my machine is stuck at hardy, trying to take it to karmic but do-release-upgrade does either nothing or lucid
[04:32] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: good
[04:32] <john__> newest version, doesnt happen everytime but i have experienced it in both my hdd or when i boot into my usb
[04:32] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: you can directly upgrade hardy to Lucid
[04:32] <micah> ok thanks
[04:32] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: in fact hardy is better in certain ways, and still supported untill end of April next year :)
[04:32] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | Nomad_
[04:33] <Nomad_> sebsebseb: don't want to go to lucid yet.  not until the nfs bug in my other systems is worked out.
[04:33] <micah> anyone know what "operation not supported by backend" means when trying to transfer a file to a usb drive?
[04:33] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: well karmic won't offer you much advantage
[04:33] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: stay with Hardy for now then I would suggest :)
[04:33] <Nomad_> and I'm getting a kernel panic in hardy, want to go to karmic since my dev box isn't showing the same bahavoir
[04:33] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: kernel panic aye?  that doesn't sound good
[04:34] <Nomad_> exactly
[04:34] <Jordan_U> Nomad_: What NFS bug?
[04:34] <sebsebseb> Nomad_: failing hardware?
[04:34] <Nomad_> no, it's a virtual host
[04:34] <Nomad_> Jordan_U: autfs isn't starting in lucid on any of my other hosts right now
[04:34] <Nomad_> have to do a cheap work around with rc.local
[04:35] <Zeromobi> Hi, I have an ubuntu laptop that is locking up when I insert a "pc card" How can I catch the kernel error? I tried looking through syslog but it doesn't even show the module being loaded
[04:35] <mib_mib> hey guys, can someone clear something up? When i want to install, say, some packages, why do i always need to install the package-dev version of it?
[04:35] <Stupendoussteve> You shouldn't always need to
[04:36] <mib_mib> Stupendoussteve: or, when is it appropriate? i.e. when do i need the header files and stuff
[04:37] <Nomad_> how do you upgrade to karmic, not lucid,  "do-release-upgrade -r karmic" needs to be an option
[04:37] <decay33> how do i install file roller from tar.gz file?
[04:38] <john__> ejwaxx, is there a site were i can show you a picture explaining what im talking about, i dont think pastebin supports pics....to my knowledge
[04:38] <Zeromobi> why would you want to install from a gz?
[04:38] <decay33> idk im new to ubuntu
[04:38] <Jordan_U> Nomad_: You can only skip releases when you're going from LTS to LTS, and you really don't want to upgrade through intrepid and jaunty to get to karmic
[04:38] <Nomad_> Jordan_U: if it's the only way to get to karmic, I do
[04:38] <wraanger> hi2all
[04:39] <Nomad_> oh well, wife wants to go to bed, I'll fight it tomorrow
[04:39] <greezmunkey> john__: imagebin.org will work
[04:39] <john__> greezemunky: thanks
[04:39] <Jordan_U> Nomad_: Have you tried asking about your aufs problem in #ubuntu-server? (it seems rather dead at the moment, but it can't hurt to try)
[04:40] <Nomad_> Jordan_U: it's a known bug that just hasn't been fixed yet
[04:40] <Nomad_> thus the cheesy work around
[04:40] <Jordan_U> Nomad_: Link?
[04:40] <Zeromobi> decay, just install it through synaptic
[04:40] <Nomad_> don't have it handy
[04:40] <Nomad_> wife+bed > non-critical upgrade
[04:41] <Nomad_> I'll see you tomorrow
[04:41] <decay33> synaptic?
[04:42] <decay33> seen that a few times what is it?
[04:42] <IdleOne> !synaptic | decay33
[04:43] <john__> if anyone could shed some light on this it would be awesome, if not nbd http://imagebin.org/101587

[04:44] <JackJelinek> hey I was wondering if someone could help me enable sound on my new installation of Ubuntu? It's my first time really looking around on here and i can't figure out how to get my sound card to be recognized
[04:45] <greezmunkey> john__: paste the contents of xrandr to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[04:46] <wraanger> my question may sound stupid, but anyway ... what is real difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu releases ? ( 10.04 )
[04:47] <thon0925> Xubuntu is designed to be lightweight, using a different graphical system
[04:47] <soreau> ! bluetooth | kanhiya
[04:47] <thon0925> it's mainly for old/low Ram systems
[04:47] <john__> greezmunkey , should i paste this link instead?
[04:47] <soreau> kanhiya: You can install most packages from the ubuntu live cd instead of the internet. See sys>admin>software sources
[04:48] <greezmunkey> john__: yeah, the link that you get after you hit paste :)
[04:48] <john__> of course haha
[04:48] <riz0n> Hi guys, I have an ubuntu 10.04 server in operation running apache. Is there a way to have http://host/~user go to /home/user/www ? Thanks
[04:48] <john__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/450886/
[04:49] <aLemmer1> Are there emblem icon replacements available on the web?
[04:49] <aLemmer1> For Gnome, that is.
[04:49] <thon0925> Just installed Xubuntu on my friends inspiron 1000 (much faster than XP @ 256 mb of RAM)
[04:49] <Jordan_U> wraanger: Different set of default applications. While that may not sound like much, in linux pretty much everything can be replaced, so it can make a huge difference.
[04:49] <greezmunkey> john__: heh, did you type xrander in a terminal?
[04:49] <acerimmer_> aLemmer1: http://art.gnome.org/
[04:50] <wraanger> thon0925 : my system is more or less new, but ... i don't like installing unused things ... and after instaling Ubuntu 10.04, I have found MANY things that I am not using or will ever going to use ... so I decided to look for some information )
[04:50] <thon0925> anyway, he told me that he had all of the pictures on his other computer, and that I could format the drive
[04:50] <greezmunkey> john__: type it in a terminal, and paste the output.
[04:50] <mib_mib> hey guys, what happened to /etc/ssh/sshd_config in ubuntu 10.04?
[04:50] <john__> greezmunkey: nah i did a file search, must of made a noob mistake
[04:50] <acerimmer_> aLemmer1: http://gnome-look.org/ also
[04:50] <thon0925> wraanger : you could remove unused apps in Ubuntu
[04:50] <Jordan_U> wraanger: I recommend trying an Xubuntu LiveCD to see how you like it (note that LiveCDs run slower and use more RAM than the actual installed system will)
[04:50] <greezmunkey> john__: at least you know how to find a file :)
[04:50] <Izinucs> mib_mib: it's there
[04:50] <decay33> how to extract a file called virtualfriend.sit
[04:51] <Izinucs> mib_mib: unless you don't have the server portion installed..
[04:51] <mib_mib> Izinucs: i only have /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[04:51] <duckx0r> i just updated my video card driver and now i'm having a problem that the radeon driver doesn't work, but when i use vesa kdm comes up and i can log in, but before the desktop loads, i go back to the login screen. I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this.
[04:51] <acerimmer_> wraanger: might also want to peek at Lubuntu
[04:51] <Izinucs> mib_mib: sudo apt-get install ssh .. will pull in the server..
