[06:32] <tripelb> my monitor has smaller everything in Windows (more resolution). I had asked in ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1488040 while using 9.10 and it worked. Now I'm on 10.04, same monitor, different computer, better graphics card. -- I applied it and I'm in default graphics mode and my display is in a box covering half the area of the screen. What to do?? (Thanks for any help!)
[06:33] <tripelb> blackdoggie, there's a page that tells you what hardware is supported. If it's not supported, well you might be lost. I cant use my webcam in Ubuntu, only in windows.

[06:36] <tripelb> I cant use the resolution of my monitor. All the text is big. will someone work with me?
[06:36] <densone> I cant seem to find the right package
[06:36] <CajunTechie> blackdoggy: let me check to make sure but I THINK PulseAudio
[06:36] <Dulak> robbit10: open a terminal and type 'last'
[06:37] <maco> blackdoggy: ive had skype work with pulse just fine
[06:37] <rww> densone: dnsutils
[06:37] <CajunTechie> Looks like PulseAudio here blackdoggy
[06:37] <blackdoggy>  tripelb do u have compiz?
[06:37] <robbit10> Dulak, hmm.. doesn't show it. But I meant logging into the GNOME screensaver lock, so that he/she gains access to the desktop.
[06:37] <densone> rww: thx
[06:38] <booknana> how to autostart apps in openbox session
[06:38] <blackdoggy> cajunTechie..  can u check for me whats ur configuration on skype input tab?
[06:38] <CajunTechie> Sure, hang on
[06:38] <Dulak> robbit10: I believe that command shows an unlock as a login
[06:38] <DarkRedman> Hi
[06:38] <CajunTechie> @Blackdoggy: Looks like it's PulseAudio. In fact, ALSA isn't even available
[06:39] <blackdoggy> so u dont have alsa installed
[06:39] <Injection33> anyone ever used critterding? the artificial life simulator?
[06:39] <robbit10> Dulak, Nope, I just locked the screen and logged back in, it still doesn't show up.
[06:39] <CajunTechie> I thought I did. I've seen it before but maybe I don't after all
[06:39] <DarkRedman> I can't chroot a directory, i got this bug : "chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory" How to fix it ?
[06:39] <Injection33> it's pretty fun
[06:39] <blackdoggy> i have  everything working fine till i recently updated my  system
[06:39] <CajunTechie> You know, I am not sure that I can make a call since I did an update. Let me try. Hang on
[06:40] <wasnik_> alsa cannot detect my soundcard, lspci, lshw, aplay dont detect my card please help
[06:40] <blackdoggy> let me remove  aal the alsa modules and see what happens
[06:40] <tripelb> blackdoggy,  no I dont have compiz. Why do you ask?
[06:40] <blackdoggy> wasnik use pulse audio
[06:40] <Dulak> robbit10: then you won't see what you need, try actually logging out, so last will see the login if someone uses it.
[06:40] <tripelb> Injection33,  FYI there is also #ubuntu-offtopic with more people to ask.
[06:41] <blackdoggy> tripelb u have to use compiz to get proper resolution and visual effects
[06:41] <tripelb> Dulak, I'm not expert but isnt there a log file which tells the time of every login.
[06:41] <DarkRedman> Who can help me for chrooting ?
[06:41] <tripelb> blackdoggy, I had it working before with no compiz.
[06:42] <Dulak> tripelb: that's the command I had him run, he's wanting to see if the screen was unlocked, not a login
[06:42] <tripelb> blackdoggy, anyone. (fuller statement of problem) my monitor has smaller everything in Windows (more resolution). I had asked in ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1488040 while using 9.10 and it worked. Now I'm on 10.04, same monitor, different computer, better graphics card. -- I applied it and I'm in default graphics mode and my display is in a box covering half the area of the screen. What to do?? (Thanks for an
[06:42] <tripelb> y help!)
[06:42] <blackdoggy> tripelb,  have u checked under visual effects?
[06:42] <tripelb> dulak thanks
[06:42] <blackdoggy> or may be ur theme
[06:43] <tripelb> blackdoggy, look at the link I posted above please. It clarifies the situation.
[06:43] <soreau> tripelb: That is a problem with the proprietary nvidia drivers. You may have to manually specify a mode line in your xorg.conf
[06:44] <tripelb> Does 10.04 use /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ?
[06:44] <soreau> tripelb: Yes, if it is present
[06:44] <soreau> tripelb: Which video card do you have now?
[06:44] <blackdoggy> tripleb go to system>preferences> monitor
[06:45] <soreau> blackdoggy: For the record, using compiz will not change your resolution
[06:45] <tripelb> soreau thanks for talking to me. It wasnt present. I added what I was told (that had worked in the past when I did NOT have an nvidia card) - now the "screen" is only part of my monitor screen.
[06:45] <blackdoggy> soreau u rite... i  mistook the query of tripelb
[06:46] <CajunTechie> Hey everyone: what is recommended for sound ALSA or OSS?
[06:46] <demonspork> How do I install package sun-java6-jre in lucid, it says that there is no installation candidate when I try. all sections of the repository except backports are currently enabled.
[06:46] <tripelb> soreau video card is lspci (something) |grep (something else)
[06:46] <soreau> tripelb: I don't really understand what you mean by 'now the "screen" is only part of my monitor screen.'
[06:46] <soreau> tripelb: heh, lspci|grep VGA
[06:46] <rww> demonspork: Do you have the partner repository enabled?
[06:47] <blackdoggy> soreau check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1488040
[06:47] <demonspork> rww, how do I add that to my sources.list?
[06:47] <rww> !partner | demonspork
[06:47] <soreau> blackdoggy: I saw that but he has changed gpu's since then
[06:47] <tripelb> soreau, OK I'll explain. there's a rectangle on my screen that usually fills the screen. Now it doesnt. It's in the upper left corner and the rest is black. I had to chose default low graphics when I booted up, after I changed the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:47] <tripelb> which had been blank
[06:48] <soreau> tripelb: Are you using the proprietary nvidia driver?  Please change it.
[06:48] <lfuser-425> where to download good screen saver for ubuntu client
[06:48] <tripelb> soreau, first my nvidia card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420] (rev a3)
[06:49] <soreau> lfuser-425: Install xscreensaver and run 'xscreensaver-demo'
[06:49] <blackdoggy> lfuser-425: try electric sheep
[06:49] <tripelb> soreau, how do I find my "X log"?
[06:49] <soreau> tripelb: ok, pastebin your X log
[06:49]  * tripelb never heard of an X-log
[06:49] <CajunTechie> Blackdoggy: Just confirmed: no input sound under PulseAudio
[06:49] <rww> tripelb: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:50] <soreau> tripelb: This should give you a link containing your X log: sudo apt-get install curl && cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
[06:50] <soreau> tripelb: The file is /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:50] <Cityscape> How can unzip many rar (56 for example) files at once?
[06:50] <soreau> Cityscape: Sure, you can do that in bash
[06:50] <Cityscape> soreau: okay, how?
[06:51] <blackdoggy> people who is the skype expert here i am having  trouble with sounds
[06:51] <tripelb> yes! I googled it and found it too .. /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:51] <soreau> Cityscape: Are the files all in the same directory?
[06:51] <glebihan> Cityscape: unrar e *.rar
[06:51] <hideki> skype is evil
[06:51] <hideki> It is proprietary spyware
[06:51] <Cityscape> soreau: yes they all are.
[06:51] <bazhang> hideki, offtopic please stop it
[06:51] <posciak> hi, has anyone had any success mounting encrypted partitions through nfs? Is this possible? I'm getting exportfs: Warning: /home/foo/bar does not support NFS export. on the server and mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting host:/home/pav/w1/kernel on the client when attempting to mount...
[06:51] <rww> hideki: That's not very helpful. If you don't want to support Skype (which I also don't), please just don't answer.
[06:51] <hideki> And it has Digital Restrictions Management. Even rms said not to use it.
[06:51] <soreau> Cityscape: Then the command glebihan should extract them all from/to that directory
[06:52] <bazhang> hideki, again, stop it
[06:52] <anil> hey sorry i was disconnected due to application hang
[06:52] <hideki> I am just trying to help free people. Sorry if this has offended anyone.
[06:52] <bazhang> hideki, its not helpful. dont do it any further
[06:52] <blackdoggy> so noone helps me with skype
[06:53] <Cityscape> hideki: not all proprietary software is bad.
[06:53] <soreau> Cityscape: To extract into a different directory, do 'cd /path/to/where/you/want/archives/extracted/' then run 'unrar e /path/to/rar/archives/*.rar'
[06:53] <s0n1c> Hey, anyone using the Smuxi IRC client?
[06:53] <hideki> Cityscape: I hold a different opinion, but we won't go there anyway
[06:54] <Cityscape> hideki
[06:54] <Cityscape> hideki: l would like to hear your opinion. go to the room, #cityscape if you are interested.
[06:54] <bazhang> Cityscape, hideki #ubuntu-offtopic with this
[06:54] <rww> !ot
[06:57] <tripelb> soreau, I've got it now. sorry it took me a while. http://paste.ubuntu.com/502473/
[06:58] <soreau> tripelb: First I see you do not have the nvidia driver installed. Go to Sys>Admin>Hardware Drivers and see what it says
[06:59] <ibrahim-kasem1> Hi, I have installed compiz using the software center, how can i start using it now? I can't find it.
[06:59] <soreau> tripelb: And before doing that, I would remove xorg.conf and restart X
[06:59] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: Compiz is already installed by default.. ccsm is not however..
[06:59] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: Do you want to start compiz or edit it's settings?
[06:59] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: Yes. I want to start it.
[07:00] <JoeCoolDesk> Seriously, how do design decisions get made for Ubuntu?
[07:00] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: See gnome-appearance-properties (sys>prefs>appearance) and set to anything other than None, should try to start compiz
[07:00] <tripelb> soreau, I remember now. It searches for a driver and when I activate the driver something bad happens. I forgot what. shall I do that again.
[07:00] <JoeCoolDesk> Who the hell thinks it's a good idea to have a built in Twitter client and still have an interface from 2004?
[07:01] <soreau> tripelb: remove your xorg.conf before installing the driver
[07:01] <tripelb> ok
[07:01] <soreau> tripelb: It shold automatically generate a conf file when you install the driver, containing the necessary options
[07:01] <rww> JoeCoolDesk: developers meet up at Ubuntu Developer Summit once a year and decide on things like default applications (like Gwibber)
[07:01] <rww> sorry, twice a year
[07:01] <rww> once a release.
[07:02] <rww> !uds
[07:02] <Cityscape> soreau: I ran you command to extract to a different folder and it seems to be working. thanks.
[07:02] <soreau> Cityscape: Great.
[07:02] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: excuse me, what should I exactly do after going there? sys>prefs>appearance
[07:03] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: In the Visual Effects tab, there is a radio button. None is metacity. Anything else will attempt to start compiz
[07:04] <fratzbc> anybody that can help me with a resolve problem?
[07:04] <soreau> ! ask | fratzbc
[07:04] <tripelb> soreau. there's a lot to do. I've copied your suggestions into a text file. Now I'll zero out the xorg.conf first.  THEN how do I restart X? Can I do it without rebooting?
[07:04] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: My visual effects are set on extra.
[07:04] <fratzbc> every time i ping a non existing domain (ea: abc.org) it replies with a abc.org.mydomain.ext
[07:05] <fratzbc> so every hostname/domain replies on my own domain
[07:05] <soreau> tripelb: Sure. To restart X simply log out. But now that I think about it, as long as you 1) Remove the conf file 2) Install the driver with hardware drivers 3) Reboot. then it should work
[07:06] <tripelb> soreau, OK. have removed conf. will activate driver. see you on the flip side.
[07:11] <JoeCoolDesk> rww, so how much of a say can you ahve at the developer conference?
[07:11] <rww> JoeCoolDesk: I haven't paid enough attention to one to be able to say.
[07:14] <soreau> JoeCoolDesk: They probably have mailing lists to handle such discussions in an organized and diplomatic fashion. That is merely a guess, though ;)
[07:15] <tripelb> soreau, Thanks. This looks good. It's not perfect but it's better than ever. What's not perfect? Well like before, there's a black area of the screen unused... actually 2 black areas, a 1/2" vertical band on either side of the screen. So effectively my screen is 18" instead of 10".  I'm good but I wanted to be complete.
[07:15] <soreau> tripelb: Have you checked nvidia-settings to adjust the screens?
[07:16] <soreau> tripelb: It sounds like to me, that you are experiencing a bug with your particular monitor
[07:16] <tripelb> what nvidia settings she asks?
[07:16] <tripelb> soreau, could be. It worked on 9.04 and works now on windows.
[07:17] <soreau> tripelb: Type 'gksu nvidia-settings' in your terminal or look in sys>prefs or sys>admin for the nvidia configurator
[07:17] <mesees> help!
[07:17] <soreau> !help
[07:17] <jasonmchristos> ok , so what system are you running right now mesees ?
[07:17] <tripelb> I nw see Nvidia settings soreau - the driver installation added it.
[07:18] <jasonmchristos> mesees, why dont you just burn it to cd no cd handy?
[07:19] <mesees> jasonmchristos windows 7
[07:19] <blockhead> Can you convert a BlueRay video file with Devede ISO and have it work as an hD?
[07:19] <blockhead> Can you convert a BlueRay video file with Devede ISO and have it work as an hD?
[07:19] <mesees> its like the image i burn to the disk isnt bootable
[07:19] <jasonmchristos> mesees, burn the ubuntu iso to cd
[07:19] <soreau> tripelb: btw, can you pastebin your current X log?
[07:19] <posciak> how can I get the passphrase of an encrypted home?
[07:19] <greppy> posciak: ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase
[07:20] <mesees> jasonmchristos yup - upon trying to burn "disk image invalid"
[07:20] <greppy> mesees: what software are you using to burn the image?
[07:20] <jasonmchristos> mesees, redownload it then did you get the torrent link directly from ubuntu.com?
[07:20] <fratzbc> why is it that when I ping to idonotexist.org i get a reply from my own domain using idonotexist.org.mydomain.ext?
[07:20] <tripelb> soreau ok
[07:21] <mesees> ya - i think the issue might be that i also tried to mount it, let me unmount
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: Are you behind a firewall or proxy?
[07:21] <posciak> greppy: thank you
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: At work, for instance
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: only iptables
[07:21] <posciak> greppy: but that asks for a passphrase
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: yes at home and work behind a firewall
[07:21] <Mohan1> Hi friends.
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: the server itself just uses iptables
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: I'd say your ISP is redirecting your DNS to try to be "helpful"
[07:21] <jasonmchristos> mesees, you can verify it manually with this http://www.md5summer.org/
[07:22] <greppy> posciak: type in your normal password for logging in to the system
[07:22] <jasonmchristos> mesees, and compare it to the checksum on ubuntus website
[07:22] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: i've had this before but cannot remember what the prob was, i will contact my isp for a different DNS server, thanks
[07:22] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: Try <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:23] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: It's a public DNS server Google set up
[07:23] <Mohan1> Recently i was removed nvidia drivers. But now i'm unable to switch to tty1-tty6
[07:23] <Mohan1> How can i do that, so that i can install latest drivers.
[07:23] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: still the same
[07:24] <mesees> jasonmchristos cranking at 370kb down now...
[07:24] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: odd
[07:24] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: true
[07:24]  * blueghost aaa
[07:24] <jasonmchristos> mesees, ok pretty fast
[07:25] <Mohan1> Can anybody hear me
[07:25] <c_nick> smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx if i try to connect to this particar computer i get nothing ..
[07:25] <tripelb> soreau, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/502480/  is what I have now. (any webpages around that would help me understand it?)
[07:25] <Aciid> c_nick: if its local , check that the names are different...
[07:25] <c_nick> this is the Ip address of another PC which is running Ubuntu
[07:26] <c_nick> Aciid: names ?
[07:26] <Aciid> hostnames
[07:26] <tripelb> soreau, this is so much easier to use. It's like I have all this room on my screen and I dont have to have each window cover the others.
[07:26] <Aciid> smb particularry wil fuckup if you have identical hostnames
[07:26] <soreau> tripelb: X log interpreting can be extremely challenging, especially across different drivers and distros. Let me look at it
[07:26] <bazhang> Aciid, language please
[07:27] <Aciid> oh sorry, its the morning...
[07:27] <tripelb> soreau, at your disposal and then immediately--- I sleep
[07:27] <soreau> tripelb: Looks much better. Does this problem show up in a screenshot?
[07:28] <soreau> tripelb: If you are tired, you should come back after you have more time and are more alert. I might not be here though..
[07:28] <tripelb> I dont think so but I'll check. BTW I can see that the black on the edge is lighter than the 'non-used by the hardware' part of the screen
[07:30] <soreau> tripelb: Does it make a difference if you set effects to 'None' in Visual Effects tab of gnome-appearance-properties? (sys>prefs>appearance)
[07:30] <soreau> tripelb: Or, if they are already set to None, deos it make a difference if you set to Extra
[07:30] <tripelb> soreau, I was right. The screenshot takes the entire "screen" (drawn by Ubuntu) rather than the physical display area.
[07:30] <c_nick> Aciid: smb://c-nick/ gives "done" absolutely nothing
[07:31] <tripelb> soreau will look at effects
[07:31] <c_nick> is it possible to connect Ubuntu-Ubuntu via smb://
[07:31] <greppy> c_nick: yes, have to have samba installed
[07:31] <c_nick> how to find out if samba is installed or not
[07:31] <soreau> tripelb: btw, is this the same ubuntu installation since you switched cards?
[07:31] <greppy> c_nick: check either dpkg or synaptics
[07:31] <hideki> c_nick: you can use sshfs
[07:32] <tripelb> soreau now I have effects (and for the first time ever) I see no difference.
[07:32] <white_magic> is there some non-commandline tool for editing grub?
[07:32] <hideki> It is more secure, and has less problems.
[07:32] <tripelb> soreau tripleb thanks you (almost) from the Santa Monica pier in Cali
[07:33] <tripelb> to where you are.
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: No problem. I have a lot more things you can try but it would take time of course
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: I am in CO
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: Can you post the screenshot to picpaste.com?
[07:34] <ectospasm> anyone here use the GLX version of cairo-dock?    It keeps behaving inconsistently.  I logged out and logged back in, and all it displayed was one of my subdocks.  It's too buggy to be of any use, unless there's a magic way to fix it?
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> yea
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> i shut it off
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> and never turned it on again
[07:34] <tripelb> soreau. this is not the same ubuntu installation. this is not the same computer. that's why the card is different.  I had the grizzly of a time getting ubuntu to install on my new hard drive. (something to do with the partitioning, which I did. I fixed it by redoing the format of the drive on slow with XP.)
[07:34] <tripelb> gparted would break.
[07:35] <sila> anybody here
[07:35] <soreau> ectospasm: cairo-dock has been around for some time now and while it's getting better, I've found it has consistent buggy behavior that make it barely unusable
[07:35] <sila> i had a problem
[07:35] <tripelb> haha the screen bounces in shape when I move it around with extra.
[07:35] <sila> is anyone can help me
[07:35] <soreau> tripelb: Can you post a screenshot so you can better describe what it's doing?
[07:36] <tripelb> sila there are hundreds here. stop and watch for a moment. emply chatter is the devil's strategy.
[07:36] <ectospasm> !ask | sila
[07:36] <soreau> ! ask | sila
[07:36] <tripelb> soreau, I am doing it. LOL I decided to do it this time instead of telling you. Saying what you are doing is better. :)
[07:37] <c_nick> Aciid: firefox screws up with sshfs
[07:37] <c_nick> installing samba now
[07:38] <Aciid> c_nick: try ping'ing the hosts first. before any trickydoodilydyy
[07:39] <sila> my touchpad can't use
[07:39] <Aciid> I once debugged an SMB connection for a whole day, only to notice I was trying to connect to myself..
[07:41] <sila> i have already set up the Gsynaptic thouch drives
[07:41] <froud> got a small problem. 10.4 - Update Manager just ran an update. It was interrupted by a power failure. On reboot it loaded and I did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, it then said I must run dpkg --configure -a but then when I reboot all I get is a command prompt as login. Any ideas?
[07:42] <sila> and xorg.conf is also update the shmconfig ture
[07:42] <tripelb> soreau, http://picpaste.com/upload.php  or better http://imgur.com/FendC
[07:43] <sila> bug info is SHMCONFIG TURE must be setted
[07:43] <tripelb> soreau imgur.com works well for pictures.
[07:44] <sila> my ubuntu is chinese simple langues
[07:44] <sila> ubuntu 10.04
[07:44] <c_nick> Aciid: I get Index of smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/ But then there is nothing if i do smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/home/c_nick/ it says Firefox can't find the file at smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/home/c_nick .
[07:44] <soreau> tripelb: yes. now can you better explain what I'm looking at? Is the area shown, in reality on your monitor, only part of the screen?
[07:44] <pehden> that was wierd
[07:45] <sila> i google my problem
[07:45] <EthanZ6174> sila what is your problem ？
[07:45] <sila> touchpad cann't work
[07:45] <tripelb> soreau, this complete picture is on my monitor.  This band is part of the area that the CRT traces but it's not "in the picture".  (maybe it's outside of the aspect ration in the driver.
[07:45] <soreau> ! chinese | sila
[07:46] <EthanZ6174> any switches for your touchpad?
[07:46] <hideki> c_nick: you usually have to create a separate directory with smb, that is why I suggested ssh. It is more reliable
[07:46] <EthanZ6174> sila and i think you should check you X11 config
[07:46] <fukedrobssister> i have problem with my chram
[07:46] <greezmunkey> *Q* Regarding Ubuntu - I would like to set up free radius in a test environment. Will the desktop version work for this, or should I just go for server?
[07:46] <cjae> http://havetheknowhow.com/Install-Ubuntu.html foolwing this page how come I can only connect to my media server from windows?
[07:46] <sila> ye  ethanz6174
[07:47] <illuminaris> My evolution mail client search doesn't work. When I type in a search term the list is blank even if I know there is an e-mail by that user or title. I can't find any guides or (answered) posts addressing this problem. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx .
[07:47] <sila> i can;t find X11config
[07:47] <cjae> is NFS installed by deafult in ubuntu-server?
[07:47] <soreau> tripelb: I do not see any black bands in that shot..
[07:47] <c_nick> hideki: so what should I do now.. ?
[07:47] <sila> there's no such file
[07:47] <fukedrobssister> is my chram going to be normal soon ?
[07:47] <dancek> greezmunkey, install whichever you like, you can install the same packages for both.
[07:47] <c_nick> i tried with sshfs no use
[07:48] <hideki> You can use ssh in the same way without sshfs
[07:48] <soreau> tripelb: FWIW, <3 mc escher though ;)
[07:48] <sacarlson> sila:  it's not needed,  only used if you setup a custom propraitary stuf
[07:48] <hideki> e.g. ssh://host/home/<user>/
[07:48] <sila> 11-x11-synaptics.fdi  there's no such file
[07:48] <fukedrobssister> will someone check on my chram ? it is not working
[07:48] <hideki> sometimes it is sftp:// and not ssh://
[07:48] <greezmunkey> dancek: That's kind of what I figured, and desktop will be a little easier to test with / configure / etc. Thanks.
[07:49] <c_nick> hideki: Firefox can't find the server at .
[07:50] <hideki> strange..
[07:50] <fukedrobssister> can someone help me fix my chram ?
[07:50] <greppy> c_nick: I must have missed it, what problem are you trying to solve?
[07:51] <mesees> 2min for my iso!
[07:51] <mesees> i need to sleep though
[07:52] <lfuser-425> hi
[07:52] <mesees> yo
[07:52] <lfuser-425> anybody knows installaion of orangehrm app in ubuntu server
[07:52] <sacarlson> c_nick: I never heard of firefox used with samba,  you might try nautilus to open ssh file systems and samba
[07:53] <fukedrobssister> I HAVE FIXED MY CHRAM!!!!!!!!
[07:53] <sacarlson> fukedrobssister: cool
[07:55] <fukedrobssister> yes
[07:55] <Jon--> Quick tip please! Multiple man pages of same name, how do I pull a different one? [ex: man write  I want the write from GNU C not the binary]
[07:55] <Jon--> A bit new to nix, thanks to anyone that can give me quick reply
[07:56] <rww> Jon--: put the section number first. "man 2 write" in this case, I think
[07:56] <gartral> is there any web browsers available for linux that come as prebuilt binary files?
[07:57] <Jon--> rww: ty
[07:57] <tripelb> soreau, FTW mc escher. I found that today at http://vospe.com/2010/09/28/artsy-hacks-the-strange-worlds-of-m-c-escher/   (It replaced my Amsterdam bookstore after dusk when the inside lights are yellowish.)
[07:57] <damascene> hi,
[07:57] <tripelb> soreau, anything else?
[07:57] <Guiles> Olá
[07:57] <sacarlson> gartral almost all I can think of, firefox, chrome
[07:57] <Guiles> a todos
[07:58] <damascene> any one knows from where should I get the latest Evolution? I need its PPA because the one installed is too buggy with RTL
[07:58] <rww> !br | Guiles
[07:58] <Guiles> há brasileiros cristãos aqui?
[07:58] <soreau> tripelb: I still don't fully understand your issue. I see the bg is slightly smaller that the furthest edge of the left window but I don't see any black bards
[07:58] <soreau> bars*
[07:58] <gartral> sacarlson: those need to be installed by apt/dpkg.. my hdd is failing.. and i need a web browser i can execute from flashdrive
[07:59] <sacarlson> gartral: you can download the tar files from the originators
[08:00] <jesse_> can someone please help me with openvpn?  NetworkManager won't import the client config file properly...
[08:00] <gartral> sacarlson: you seem too be missing the point, i cant compile, cause i dont have build essentials, and i cant install because apt/dpkg are in bad sectors of this hdd..
[08:01] <sacarlson> gartral: I guess you could also put the deb file on your flash drive and install that
[08:01] <mesees> its reboot time, wish me luck
[08:01] <sacarlson> gartral.  they also have precompiled tars
[08:01] <gartral> sacarlson: again, that isnt an option. i have a failing hdd and no browser to order a new one
[08:02] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, library computer
[08:02] <sacarlson> gartral: you can install another copy of ubuntu onto your flash and run from that
[08:02] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, or yeah, a rescue cd on a stick
[08:03] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: my liabrary sucks, all their computers are locked in steel desks, and they have download blockers so you cant download anything
[08:03] <tsukiyomi> A little help regarding monitor mode.. anyone
[08:03] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, what do you have access to?
[08:03] <gartral> and too add insult to injury, they charge for time
[08:03] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, IRC?
[08:04] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: irssi, fsck, /boot is a seperate hd thank god, and a few games
[08:04] <tripelb> soreau, I'm done for the night. Thanks for helping me. I am very very happy with the result. I'm more productive. and I tickled your Escher fancy in return.  So to whereever you are, tripleWAVES

[08:04] <james333james> hi there
[08:04] <Zeissen> Hi
[08:05] <james333james> i need to set a Perl Script working on startup
[08:05] <james333james> does anybody can help me?
[08:05] <tsukiyomi> Anyone knows why does my monitor mode goes back to managed mode?
[08:05] <glebihan> james333james: when exactly do you want it to be run ?
[08:05] <james333james> gebi
[08:06] <james333james> glebihan: it's gbackgfround a perl script that switch wallpapers within time
[08:06] <james333james> glebihn: you can fin it in the official repositories but it's bettere to install the debian version that is 1.3.1 that fix some bugs
[08:07] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: i have a droid, that's what i can transfer downloaded stuff from, but verizon is so damn slow i don't want to do anything that might not work
[08:07] <bazhang> james333james, installing from debian repos? not a good idea at all
[08:07] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I'm looking for a static build of wget for you. That would help.
[08:07] <tsukiyomi> Has anyone used wireshark that could lend me a hand here?
[08:07] <Richie086> tsukiyomi: yeah
[08:07] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, yes and #wireshark
[08:08] <rww> tsukiyomi: If you have Network Manager running, it tends to do that.
[08:08] <tsukiyomi> thnxs its about leaving monitor mode on
[08:08] <glebihan> james333james: you could add it to the startup applications
[08:08] <\DSAFEW\> ahh I see your question now
[08:08] <james333james> bazhang: there was no way to install the last version from the ubuntu repos, and anyway the program works really fine, i just don't know how to set it on startup so that i don't have to start manually every boot
[08:08] <tsukiyomi> whenever i set it up in about 3 or 4 sec it goes back to managed
[08:08] <rww> !wfm
[08:08] <konbon> Hello fellas. Is there some one who can help me with a serious emergency. I ran a virus that's very malicious on my windows pc (windows 7 64 bit) and i am now on Ubuntu attempting to clean it up. Problem is, it wont let me mount the drive i need to clean. Any suggestions?
[08:08] <bazhang> james333james, then you are on your own; that is in no way supported here
[08:09] <ranjan> Hi all
[08:09] <konbon> i am willing to pay for the help
[08:09] <james333james> glebihan: if i add the program in the startup applications it start ups on the boot but i have to push the button on the windows to set it works
[08:09] <konbon> this is a serious emergency, all my work data is in there
[08:09] <james333james> glebihan: i would like to find a proper command to set it working automatically on startup then add this on the boot

[08:10] <mr_successfull> Why are so many people  in here?
[08:11] <james333james>  glebihan: i suggest you the 1.3.1 version cos the 1.2 doens't save settings
[08:12] <glebihan> james333james: I would not recommend using this software, it's a dead project since 2007 apparently
[08:12] <devkhadka> in my system /var/cache/debconf/password.dat file is locked by another process, because of that i cannot login into my phpmyadmin, how can i fix it
[08:12] <james333james> glebihan:  what's wrong with it ?
[08:13] <mr_successfull> lol
[08:13] <mr_successfull> I was just on that case (/var/cache/debconf/password.dat file)
[08:13] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, I'm trying to help gar get his computer working now, someone said it was your network manager earlier
[08:13] <glebihan> james333james: as I said, it's been dead for 3 years
[08:13] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, yeah saw lots of issues regarding same
[08:13] <asterhex> hi everybody I've got a question on  servermail and ubuntu. can anyone help me?
[08:14] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, also, it's fine to talk here, more people might get involved in the solution
[08:14] <james333james> glebihan:  i didn't find a better program to switch the wallpaper so easy and light, and as I told you it works really fine for me, i just need to set it on startup
[08:14] <konbon> gartral: this is the error i get http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/7821/error1oo.jpg
[08:14] <tsukiyomi> alright
[08:14] <gartral> konbon: weblinks are useless for me atm
[08:14] <sacarlson> konbon: so far this is all I found on windows 7 mount partition http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8372018
[08:14] <konbon> Oh, well, is there anyone else who can help me mount this windows ntfs drive?
[08:14] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, did you find which process has locked the file? and how to see it
[08:15] <gartral> mr_successfull: it's ALLWAS busy in here
[08:15] <glebihan> james333james: ok I'll see what I can do
[08:15] <james333james> glebihan:  thank you so much
[08:15] <jasonmchristos> konbon, didnt you get my pm?
[08:15] <mr_successfull> Copy the current .dat file and paste it on your desktop
[08:16] <konbon> yeah, just saw it now
[08:16] <c_nick> hwo can i access 2 pcs using samba.. ? where should i make the share folder
[08:16] <sacarlson> konbon: can you boot windows 7 in safemode and shutdown clean?  then maybe it will mount in ubuntu
[08:16] <glebihan> james333james: btw, if I may, here is a similar application I developed for gnome : https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnomebgutils/
[08:16] <optimum> hi, i was wondering if anyone can tell me what the industry standard password hashing algorithm is.  i was considering sha1 but apparently it is not secure
[08:16] <mr_successfull> and then change .dat to .txt
[08:17] <sila_> chinese ubuntu CHANNEL IS WHAT
[08:17] <james333james> glebihan:  You did that?
[08:17] <rww> sila_: #ubuntu-cn
[08:17] <pLr> !cn | sila_
[08:17] <tsukiyomi> how do you disable or turn off the network manager?
[08:17] <rww> optimum: SHA-2, I think
[08:17] <glebihan> james333james: yep
[08:17] <sila_> 3Q
[08:17] <james333james> Glebelg:  great!! That's much better!! Wait i will install it
[08:17] <mr_successfull> geez what is this? one million businesses for one program?
[08:18] <pLr> ^^|
[08:18] <jbl> james333james: have a look at System->Preferences->Sessions
[08:18] <james333james> Glebelg:  is this apps in the official repositories ?
[08:18] <bazhang> !ot | mr_successfull
[08:18] <glebihan> james333james: no
[08:18] <optimum> rww: are there any drawbacks to simply going with sha-384?
[08:18] <james333james> jbl: what?
[08:18] <james333james> glebihan:  why is not there?
[08:18] <sacarlson> tsukiyomi: sudo service network-manager stop
[08:19] <jbl> james333james: for adding a program to be run at login time
[08:19] <glebihan> james333james: cause getting an application into official repositories is not simple, and I never took the time to try to do it
[08:19] <rww> optimum: SHA-384 is one particular configuration of the SHA-2 algorithm. Should work fine.
[08:20] <james333james> jbl: it's not the problem to do that, the problem is to run it on startup with the proper command, if i just add this program to the startup the windows program will be prompted and i'll have to set and start it manually
[08:20] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, why is that and whats next
[08:20] <optimum> rww: cool.  that's good to know.  thanks
[08:21] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, wait, how are you online if you only have irssi?
[08:21] <mr_successfull> That is as far as I could go though haha. But I next to experiment with this problem.
[08:21] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I meant, extensively what is available?
[08:21] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: what do you mean? look at my ip, i'm on with my phone
[08:22] <gartral> ohh wait, i have a cloak, thats right, nvm
[08:22] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, so your irssi is on the phone?
[08:22] <konbon> question, i tried to mount the ntfs drive, but it says i cant, i need to be root
[08:22] <blackdoggy> is anybody able to make transparent effects in ubntu
[08:22] <konbon> how can i root on live cd?
[08:22] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: yes, it's just a single program, i've been working on porting it for some time.. it's a pain
[08:22] <mr_successfull> Regardless to just keep your files on the desktop.
[08:23] <glebihan> konbon: using sudo
[08:23] <konbon> so, do sudo before the command?
[08:23] <sacarlson> konbon: sudo su and you will have root  #
[08:23] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, so what's not working? computer only has a /boot right?
[08:23] <konbon> Thanks mate, trying now
[08:23] <Renderspec> anybody know what is the command to what internet hosts the system is connected to?
[08:24] <blackdoggy> hi everyone transparent efect on  ubuntu gnome
[08:24] <glebihan> konbon: do not use sudo su, but sudo -i
[08:24] <iceroot> sacarlson: dont use sudo su!! its setting the environment wrong
[08:24] <Renderspec> anybody know what is the command to view the internet hosts the system is connected to?
[08:24] <konbon> this is the command i want to execute
[08:24] <hideki> netstat -nt
[08:24] <konbon> "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo su mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdd1 /media/w00ty -o force
[08:24] <konbon> su: invalid option -- 't'"
[08:24] <sacarlson> iceroot: if you use the other it changes the path you started from
[08:24] <Renderspec> hideki: thanks
[08:24] <konbon> sorry, not really using a proper irc client
[08:24] <iceroot> konbon: dont use sudo su!
[08:24] <glebihan> konbon: just "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdd1 /media/w00ty -o force"
[08:25] <konbon> Thanks
[08:25] <\DSAFEW\> blackdoggy, look for the "alpha" levels on windows
[08:25] <sacarlson> iceroot: use sudo su
[08:25] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: the main / partition has som 200000+ bad sectors. it screwed up ff, chrome, apt, dpkg, wget, nexuiz, and most of my nautilus. but, other things work fine, like irssi on the comp, and a few games.. and wine
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: again, dont recoomend sudo su here
[08:26] <sacarlson> iceroot:  try your methode after you $cd /some/very/long/path/that/took/two/hours/to/find
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: you mean sudo -i
[08:26] <glebihan> sacarlson: sudo su should never be used, it doesn't correctly set environment variables
[08:26] <blackdoggy> \DSAFEW\ where will i find that ?
[08:26] <sacarlson> iceroot: yes sudo -i changes you back to root /
[08:26] <moon> hello
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: if you dont want to hear, please stop supporting here
[08:27] <mr_successfull> devkhadka what desktop program do you have for your computer?
[08:27] <moon> i am a freshman
[08:27] <konbon> glebihan: you are a life saver
[08:27] <glebihan> sacarlson: then use "sudo -s", which won't change your working directory
[08:27] <mr_successfull> Let me guess Linux
[08:27] <blackdoggy> \DSAFEW\: where will i find that ?
[08:27] <konbon> glebihan: how can i ever repay you?
[08:27] <sacarlson> glebihan: I didn't know that sudo -s
[08:27] <hideki> GNU/Linux
[08:27] <mr_successfull> ubuntu
[08:27] <glebihan> konbon: no need too, I'm here to help :)
[08:27] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I see, wow, so have you scoured your bins for networking programs like netcat and lynx?
[08:28] <sacarlson> iceroot: so stop using sudo -i use sudo -s
[08:28] <iceroot> sacarlson: can you stopping being a troll?
[08:28] <mr_successfull> lol
[08:28] <glebihan> sacarlson: those are too different options, sudo -i starts a login shell, not sudo -s
[08:28] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I can get you the static wget for windows, not sure if wine will run it
[08:29] <iceroot> sacarlson: please read the manpage from sudo before posting strange things here. thank you
[08:29] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: neither work, wget is screwed, w3m works, but that's next-to-crud..
[08:29] <\DSAFEW\> hehe
[08:29] <moon> quit
[08:29] <mr_successfull> I see
[08:29] <gartral> moon: quitting is for quitters!
[08:29] <glebihan> james333james: have been looking at gbackground, can't find any options to start it without showing the window
[08:30] <\DSAFEW\> w3m to download something to the /boot drive? install from there?
[08:30] <Moopz> Hey. So I downloaded the tarball of themes from here: http://grub.gibibit.com/Themes for the grub2, but I have no clue how to install it. The script included doesn't work.
[08:30] <james333james> gebihan: ok maybe it will be easier to rewrite the script LOL
[08:30] <glebihan> james333james: plus it uses a lot of deprecated gtk methods, so once again, I wouldn't use it
[08:30] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: im not sure how to make it work, but i cant install, apt and dkpg are borked
[08:30] <gartral> dpkg*
[08:30] <glebihan> james333james: did you give a try to my app ?
[08:31] <james333james> glebihan: did it works silently on startup and will let me switch autmatically the wallpaper within 15 seconds?
[08:31] <babu__> i'm a linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:31] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, right, well, can you decompress a tarball?
[08:31] <babu__> i'm a new linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:32] <james333james> glebihan:  usually i don't install stuff that doesn't came from official repositories
[08:32] <glebihan> james333james: you'll have to add it to your startup applications, then you'll have an icon in the notification area
[08:32] <glebihan> james333james: I understand that
[08:32] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: just tryed, no, tar is throwing bus error
[08:33] <twiztid> quick question (should be): how could i create a ubuntu 10.04 install disk including everything ive done to it thus far?
[08:33] <james333james> glebihan:  when the icon will appear on startup do i have to start the program manually anyway?
[08:33] <james333james> appears
[08:33] <chu> Hey all, wondering if someone can help me out. I'm a bit sick of maximizing gnome-terminal whenever I open it. Now I could just use a shortcut and put "gnome-terminal --maximize" as the launch command, but because I use gnome-do this isn't really satisfactory. I've tried creating a custom terminal launcher through Preferred Applications, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
[08:34] <ross_> hello
[08:34] <konbon> anyone here know how to use clamAV or have a tutorial?
[08:34] <konbon> im not so good with terminal commands
[08:34] <glebihan> james333james: no it will start automatically, the icon will you access to configuration
[08:34] <konbon> but i can learn
[08:34] <Moopz> Hey. So I downloaded the tarball of themes from here: http://grub.gibibit.com/Themes for the grub2, but I have no clue how to install it. The script included doesn't work... Anyone?
[08:34] <babu__> i'm a new linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:35] <chu> konbon: Does "man clamAV" (or whatever the executable for clamAV is) give you anything?
[08:35] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, can you use mount isofs and loopback devices?
[08:35] <ross_> when my computer is connected to the internet, sometimes, there is a pictures of a device on where the wireless icon is, what does that mean??
[08:35] <konbon> chu: i tried just clamav but no, nothing
[08:35] <konbon> should i try man clamav ?
[08:36] <konbon> did not work :(
[08:36] <chu> konbon: Well, if clamav does nothing, man clamav won't either. Just let me do some googling
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, freshclam && clamscan /
[08:36] <konbon> im downloading avast linux edition
[08:36] <konbon> thanks \DSAFEW\
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, oh
[08:36] <chu> Well there you have it. Thanks \DSAFEW\ :)
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, -R I think
[08:36] <morbidwar> Hello anyone was able to install Canon imagerunner 2520 on 10.04?
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, it's not recursive by default
[08:36] <lwqlwq> hi! I want to ask a problem about vim
[08:37] <konbon> Thanks
[08:37] <lwqlwq> when some error occurs while vim running the scripts , the message will appeared and disappeared soon at the bottom of vim . how to find the history of them?
[08:37] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, and you can set up freshclam to auto-update
[08:37] <konbon> so, the full text would be "freshclam && clamscan -R" ?
[08:37] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: if i had the usable space for an iso, im only seeing about 300 mb that are free and not corrupt
[08:37] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, oooh... what about the /boot drive?
[08:37] <twiztid> what program creates a ubuntu install disk from my current install?
[08:37] <chu> babu__: I don't entirely understand your question, but you could start by reading this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, clamscan -r /
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, lowercase r and / is the path
[08:38] <babu__> i want to knoe the differnece between open source and foss
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> babu__, foss is for your teef
[08:39] <maco> babu__: the "os" in foss *is* "open source"
[08:39] <chu> babu__: It's mostly about language to be honest.
[08:39] <maco> babu__: the last "s" is "software and the "f" is "free" in case you want to emphasize software freedom
[08:40] <wamicho> hey got a litle problem when i update my box there is this message Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/tvst-hotmail/cardapio/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404  Not Found
[08:40] <babu__> in what ways open source is different from open source
[08:40] <morbidwar> Hello anyone was able to install Canon imagerunner 2520 on 10.04?
[08:40] <twiztid> as in, custom install disk including everything i have done/installed to my current install
[08:40] <hideki> free software is more about freedom
[08:40] <rww> babu__: open source and open source are the same
[08:40] <hideki> open source is more about cost
[08:40] <konbon> Thanks \DSAFEW\
[08:41] <babu__> sorry...in what ways open source is different from free software(foss-free and open source software)
[08:41] <maco> babu__: the definitions are pretty much identical
[08:41] <hideki> free software and open source refer to the same thing
[08:41] <konbon> \DSAFEW\: will this clean up malware as well?
[08:41] <ross_> how do you join the ubuntu off topic channel
[08:42] <llutz_> !ot
[08:42] <maco> babu__: its just some people like one term more than the other.  free emphasis software freedom. open is more about emphasising the development model. the result is the same
[08:42] <cuddlefish_XO> ross_: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:42] <llutz_> to join, type "/join #ubuntu-offtopic"
[08:42] <enav> hi guys... I'm using Linux/ubuntu+eclipse+xdebug to debug my php code...  actually i can see variables in the global scope, but when i try to see variables inside functions they just show empty values... I'm surfed Internet about 2 hour looking for a solution with out success... any suggestion???
[08:42] <hideki> however, calling it free software shows that you care more about the issues of freedom, whereas open source is more about cost and technical advantage
[08:42] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, I don't think so, not all of it
[08:43] <konbon> Oh, :(
[08:43] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, things with TOS will probably be immune to the AV
[08:43] <konbon> i installed a terrible virus on my windows rig
[08:43] <konbon> what's TOS?
[08:43] <cuddlefish_XO> konbon: It depends
[08:43] <cuddlefish_XO> konbon: Can i have context?
[08:44] <konbon> what is that ?
[08:44] <llutz_> tramiel operating system = TOS ;)
[08:44] <konbon> sorry, kinda of a noob here, to linux
[08:44] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, the terms of service, lots of malware can get in legally
[08:44] <konbon> oic
[08:44] <babu__> that means both are same in all aspects
[08:44] <konbon> i managed to check on some locations of the virus executables before the pc crashed
[08:44] <konbon> most were in a temp forlder
[08:45] <konbon> folder*
[08:45] <xliv3> hello guys
[08:45] <xliv3> need a help
[08:45] <gartral> konbon: can't you sudo mount?
[08:45] <xliv3> is it possible to add a animated login screen
[08:45] <cuddlefish_XO> !help > xliv3
[08:45] <konbon> \DSAFEW\: with this -r setting, will it actually get rid of the virus detections or does it move them to a folder?
[08:46] <konbon> i mounter the drive thanks to glebihan
[08:46] <xliv3> hello is it possible to add a animated login screen on ubuntu ?
[08:46] <xliv3> maby a flash animated
[08:47] <xliv3> one
[08:47] <chu> xliv3: Check out this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=905319
[08:48] <xliv3> well chu I googled .. but and also I saw that thread .. but I didnt get anything usefull
[08:48] <twiztid> anyone have a suggestion as to how i could create a install disk from my current ubuntu install so that when i reinstall ubuntu its installed with all the settings and programs within it
[08:48] <xliv3> I just wana know weda its possible or not ..I'll try to do somthing by own
[08:48] <konbon> well, lets hope this cleans up some of the virus
[08:49] <konbon> this is what i get for using plain messenger and clicking on a url from an unknown user
[08:49] <llutz_> pebkac
[08:51] <greppy> twiztid: settings for your user?  or for the system?
[08:51] <bullgard4> Why is running on my Lucid computer the process »modem-manager« although I do not have a GSM, CDMA, or UMTS card?
[08:52] <blakkheim> bullgard4: because ubuntu comes with a lot of things you probably won't ever need
[08:52] <cuddlefish_XO> bullgard4: It just runs whether you have one or not
[08:52] <twiztid> greppy: everything, so that i dont have to set it up from scratch, basically like a snapshot of it right now, on a bootable/installable disk
[08:52] <blakkheim> or use at all
[08:52] <twiztid> greppy: btw thx for ur reply
[08:52] <cuddlefish_XO> so if you get one, it'll work
[08:52] <chu> twiztid: Settings are mostly saved to your /home/<user> directory. For a list of packages installed you can either go through Synaptic or there's some terminal commands.
[08:53] <berkes> good-day, After a reïnstall, I have trouble with my desktopcouch/evolution (ubuntu one sync). Somehow it does no sync and often comes up with an error "Error while loading addressbook ..... Details: action not allowed"
[08:53] <konbon> is there any way to force the resolution of a screen?
[08:53] <konbon> im on 800x600 and cant see much on it
[08:53] <bullgard4> blakkheim: I don't think that Ubuntu maintainers are that dumb.
[08:53] <konbon> i need to click something and it out of the reach of the GUI
[08:53] <berkes> how can I debug this best? Strace gives me no hints. Any logs for desktopcouch or evolution?
[08:53] <konbon> due to the resolution
[08:53] <blakkheim> bullgard4: it'd be better that i not offer my opinion there
[08:53] <greppy> twiztid: setting up the entire system could be a little rough.  basically back up your home directory, that will handle most of what you have on the desktop or saved configs for applications
[08:54] <greppy> twiztid: backing up /etc can save most of what you have there.
[08:54] <bullgard4> cuddlefish_XO: Why is there that waist of ressources?
[08:54] <bullgard4> cuddlefish_XO: Why is there that waste of ressources?
[08:54] <greppy> twiztid: why do you want to reinstall btw?
[08:54] <blakkheim> bullgard4: ubuntu is meant to run on a large range of hardware, including old legacy stuff, so they include support for lots of things
[08:55] <greppy> modem-manager could be used for bluetooth as well (I haven't checked, but it's a possibility)
[08:55] <bullgard4> blakkheim: I know that. Still, it an easy matter not to start a process that is not needed.
[08:56] <niko-nojo> Hi guys - I'm trying to use sed to replace this string varchar(10) from a file with null but not sure how to do it. The number inside the brackets can be any number. I've got a basic string replacement working but not sure on brackets and numbers part.
[08:56] <rww> apparently not so easy
[08:56] <angelo> chi parla italiano
[08:56] <xev> hey, any one can help me how to connect to wifi using terminal/wpa_applicant
[08:56] <tensorpudding> !it | angelo
[08:57] <konbon> Is there a way to apply the video driver on a liveCD?
[08:57] <bullgard4> !it | angelo
[08:57] <chu> twiztid: If you don't mind using a command line, the command "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > $BCKP_PCKGLST" will export a list of currently installed packages (you might want to save sources.list [assuming you have modified it] and your /etc/fstab too), once you have done the re-install you can run the command "dpkg --set-selections < $BCKP_PCKGLST
[08:57] <greppy> niko-nojo: off the top of my head sed -i 's/varchar\([0-9]+\)//g' $filename (not tested, at your own risk, etc etc)
[08:57] <Moopz> Hey. I'm trying to install the grub2 themes from http://grub.gibibit.com/ but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install them. Can anyone help?
[08:58] <konbon> it says i need to restart the computer to activate the video driver,  but if i do this, it will just go back to original live settings no?
[08:58] <konbon> since im on live
[08:58] <konbon> livecd
[08:58] <glebihan> Moopz: what exactly did you download ?
[08:59] <Moopz> I downloaded the iso from there. It included 4 themes.
[08:59] <chu> twiztid: If you don't mind using a command line, the command "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > $BCKP_PCKGLST" will export a list of currently installed packages (you might want to save sources.list [assuming you have modified it] and your /etc/fstab too), once you have done the re-install you can run the command "dpkg --set-selections < $BCKP_PCKGLST; dselect" which will re-install all the old packages, replace the sources.li
[08:59] <sacarlson> konbon: yes I think it will do nothing in a livecd boot
[09:00] <niko-nojo> greppy - thx, don't think that works. Its the regex part I'm struggling with
[09:00] <konbon> ic :_(
[09:01] <sacarlson> konbon: I think I mounted the real boot disk from live boot and modified the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:01] <konbon> found a way :P
[09:02] <twiztid> greppy: ok, cool, well long story short,,, XP installed first, then 7, then ubuntu... (MBR<--GRUB2)  MBR contained "earlier version of windows" [which is XP], and "Windows 7";;; to get there i had to select Windows 7 (loader)...   OK, then xp got a virus, so i activated the 7 partition and migrated the xp BOOT record to 7's partition and told 7 to allocate the free space xp left behind; so...
[09:02] <twiztid> ...now i have a mess of chainlinked boot records that i want to just completely reinstall XP then 7, then Ubuntu... so its nice and clean but im just too lazy to re set up ubuntu from scratch and update it, and install all the little tweaks and settings etc...
[09:02] <konbon> moved the bottom bar to the left
[09:02] <twiztid> whew
[09:02] <FloodBot2> twiztid: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:02] <konbon> now i can see the scan button :)
[09:02] <konbon> thanks anyways mates
[09:02] <konbon> <3 this place
[09:02] <konbon> <3 ubuntu
[09:02] <rww> LordDragon: oh, you just needed to move a window? Hold down the alt key, drag the window.
[09:02] <rww> konbon: **
[09:02] <niko-nojo> greppy - this is what I have so far sed -e 's/varchar/bar/g' myfile.txt
[09:03] <Moopz> glebihan: Any clue on how to install it?
[09:03] <greppy> twiztid: ok, backup /etc, grab the packaage list as previously stated, backup your /home/$user dir
[09:03] <glebihan> Moopz: hold on, I'm looking at it
[09:03] <Moopz> glebihan, thanks :)
[09:03] <twiztid> chu: thx for your reply... looking into it, seems complicated
[09:04] <chu> twiztid: It's probably overwhelming for someone who doesn't have much terminal experience. I can walk you through it if need be.
[09:04] <Jigal> can anyone please tell me how to send a file using pastebinit
[09:04] <greppy> niko-nojo: that will spit out the file with changing varchar for bar.
[09:05] <konbon> rww: yeah?
[09:05] <niko-nojo> greppy - ya - easier to see if it works
[09:05] <cmyk> hi
[09:05] <fish_sticks> Jigal open pastie.org and paste your code and paste that link wherever
[09:05] <greppy> niko-nojo: can you put your example file up on pastebot?
[09:05] <rww> konbon: see the message right above that. alt-drag moves windows.
[09:05] <chu> twiztid: Alternatively, if you give me a few seconds I'll find out how to do it with Synaptic package manager so you won't need to use the command line.
[09:05] <greppy> niko-nojo: you are basically trying to replace varchar($somebumber) with something else, yes?
[09:05] <konbon> epic
[09:05] <konbon> ty :)
[09:05] <cmyk> I just installed ubuntu as a vm for testing. wanted to install Acrobat reader 9
[09:05] <Jigal> fish_sticks, cant do that working trhough a shell thats why i want to use pastebinit
[09:06] <niko-nojo> greppy - example file is basic , contains varchar(10)
[09:06] <niko-nojo> varchar(1)
[09:06] <niko-nojo> varchar(99)
[09:06] <cmyk> did that in the software center
[09:06] <greppy> k
[09:06] <cmyk> under installed software it says it's installed.
[09:06] <greppy> gimme a second :)
[09:06] <cmyk> where the heck?
[09:06] <twiztid> chu: that would be ideal, i thought there was a program that created ubuntu install disks based on the current ubuntu installation
[09:07] <llutz_> Jigal: pastebinit -i file        iirc
[09:07] <james333james> Hey i just installed wine 1.2 but the installer didn't create the wine menu in the Application Menu
[09:07] <twiztid> chu: so that one would not have to reapply all the little tweaks and settings involved with a fresh install
[09:07] <vasez> How do I create a second user that can su to root?
[09:07] <niko-nojo> greppy - so anything with varchar(some number)
[09:07] <cmyk> oh, it's under office. never mind.
[09:07] <Jigal> llutz, tnx
[09:08] <greppy> niko-nojo: perl -p -i -e 's{varchar\([0-9]+\)}{bar}g' niko.txt
[09:08] <\DSAFEW\> can I get wubi to install from a from a windows with messed up internets?
[09:08] <llutz_> vasez: create an user and add him to admin-group then
[09:08] <greppy> niko-nojo: just replace bar with whatever you want it to be, and niko.txt with the filename :)
[09:08] <sacarlson> vasez: see System>Administration>user groups
[09:08] <glebihan> Moopz: if you're only looking for the themes, you should download the themes tarball : http://grub.gibibit.com/files/grub-themes-src-2008-08-15.tgz
[09:08] <glebihan> Moopz: It contains an installation script
[09:09] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: internets?
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, yeah, its internets are messed
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, like the TCP/IPs and stuff
[09:09] <chrisg> oh noes
[09:09] <chrisg> teh intarnets!
[09:09] <vasez> Thank you
[09:09] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: is it possible for you to explain like an intelligent human being?
[09:09] <rww> \DSAFEW\: Download the correct .iso file, copy it to the computer in the same directory as the wubi installer .exe, run Wubi.
[09:09] <Moopz> glebihan, but when I run the script, nothing really happens?
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, I really don't think I can be more clear.
[09:10] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: then I'm sorry, I cannot help you.
[09:10] <\DSAFEW\> rww, thanks, that works like a charm :D
[09:10] <chu> twiztid: Most (possibly all?) of the settings are saved to your home directory (usually named ".<application_name>" - the . signifies a hidden file by the way). So if you backup your home drive, all the settings will come with that.
[09:10] <niko-nojo> thx greppy - am I correct in thinking this should be possible with sed though. I'm off to practice it :)
[09:11] <Moopz> glebihan, I actually think they are installed now, but then I don't know how to chose which one it uses?
[09:11] <greppy> niko-nojo: I want to say "yes" but my perl-fu is greater than my sed-fu :)
[09:11] <\DSAFEW\> rww, to save me some time, is there a specific checksum file I need to change in order to make my iso work?
[09:11] <\DSAFEW\> rww, otherwise, I can download a new one
[09:11] <niko-nojo> greppy - thx for your help
[09:11] <glebihan> Moopz: do you have a themes folder in /boot/grub ?
[09:11] <greppy> niko-nojo: you're welcome :)
[09:11] <Moopz> Yes
[09:11] <rww> \DSAFEW\: I'm not sure what you're asking...
[09:12] <chu> twiztid: Now, as far as saving a list of packages with Synaptic goes, I don't think it could be easier: In Synaptic, click "File -> Read Markings" that should save a list of currently installed packages. Name the file whatever you want, but make sure it's saved!
[09:12] <\DSAFEW\> rww, you said the "correct" iso, so I am assuming it does a checksum to check integrity
[09:12] <\DSAFEW\> rww, so can I tweak it to use my already downloaded version?
[09:12] <glebihan> Moopz: and it contains the themes winter, proto... ?
[09:13] <Moopz> glebihan, yes.
[09:13] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: just install it on a usb drive
[09:13] <rww> \DSAFEW\: I meant if you're going to tell it to install Ubuntu, get the ubuntu-desktop ISO. Kubuntu kubuntu-desktop, etc.
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> rww, alright
[09:13] <Moopz> glebihan, So it is installed, I know. But how to I select which one it should use?
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, the computer I'm working with doesn't have the ability to boot via USB or CD
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, and the internets are borked
[09:14] <chu> twiztid: Wait, sorry I got the name mixed up... Use "File -> Save Markings" to export a list of currently installed packages, use "File -> Read Markings" to import the list and install the packages.
[09:14] <\DSAFEW\> I'll be able to copy the installation files there and execute them though
[09:14] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: what can it boot from, other than the hdd?
[09:14] <rww> \DSAFEW\: Oh, it gets prissy if you try to use a 32-bit ISO on a 64-bit capable computer. If that happens, start wubi with the "--32bit" option

[09:17] <glebihan> Moopz: I'm not completely sure, you'd have to edit /etc/grub.d/40_custom, but I prefer not to get further into this as I've never done that and I don't want to mess your grub installation
[09:18] <rww> abul: #freenode for irc network help

[09:19] <CameronH> lol yeah i know what ubuntu is
[09:19] <abul> ya
[09:19] <Gogi> my fingerprint sensor is not working on ubuntu.can anyone help me?
[09:19] <chu> twiztid: Yeah, I would recommend a separate /home partition. Not sure what the create-startup-disk does sorry. I'm a bit of a terminal junkie so have some BASH scripts written which export the packages installed, and then import the packages to install when I do a re-install of the OS. I've read that it's possible to do this with Synaptic though (I can link you to the thread if you'd like to read it though).
[09:20] <ectospasm> Gogi: does it show in lsusb?
[09:20] <sacarlson> abul: see my private message
[09:20] <CameronH> hmm seing as im here i actually have a legit question
[09:20] <CameronH> I wanted to dual boot ubuntu and vista
[09:20] <Gogi> ectospasm:no its not installed.i think
[09:20] <ectospasm> !ask | Cameron
[09:20] <CameronH> But i couldnt rezise the vista partition
[09:20] <CameronH> can im nub
[09:20] <ectospasm> Gogi: you have lsusb installed as a command-line utility
[09:20] <Gnea> CameronH: well you should've asked that from the get-go
[09:21] <CameronH> ubottu im not asking
[09:21] <james333james>  I just installed Wine 1.2 but the installer didn't create the folder in the menu
 help pls
[09:21] <twiztid> chu: im good, im alot further than i was... i thank you alot and might see ya around again :p  have a good one!

[09:21] <Gogi> ectospasm:i am new to ubunytu so could you please how to do it
[09:21] <evilmercenary> CameronH: how much free space do you have left in vista?
[09:21] <chu> twiztid: No worries. Hope it works out for you :) Have a good evening.
[09:22] <ectospasm> Gogi: open a terminal:  Applications/Accessories/Terminal.  Then run the command:  lsusb
[09:22] <CameronH> uh like 40-50gb
[09:22] <ectospasm> Gogi: this assumes your fingerprint reader is USB
[09:23] <evilmercenary> CameronH, and how big do you want your ubuntu part to be? 30GB (normally plenty if you're just trying ubuntu properly. mine is 100GB, but i've only ever used 40GB over two years with it dualbooting with win7)
[09:23] <greppy> CameronH: I have used GNU Parted http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php to resize a vista partition
[09:24] <Gogi> ectospasm:i am getting as"bus 003 device 002 device id 147e:1000 upek
[09:24] <MikeWaters> HEY does anyone have a workaround for the pointer size in Lucid? I get the pointer I want., but I like a HUGE pointer! They tel me that this is a compiz problme ...
[09:24] <CameronH> Ya i just wanted to try it with a small part then if i liked it id make it bigger cause i have heaps of space on my external for stuffs
[09:24] <Gogi> ectospasm:how to install it make use for login
[09:25] <evilmercenary> CameronH, well...have you got a copy of the ubuntu install CD/DVD from here: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[09:27] <Gogi> ectospasm:please tell me now what to do?
[09:27] <ectospasm> Gogi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=760018&highlight=fingerprint+authentication
[09:27] <CameronH> evilmercenary i have a .iso from awhile ago

[09:29] <james333james> ok
[09:29] <mgmuscari> i've got a 9.10 installation that's been tweaked in various ways... i just decided to upgrade to 10.04, but it told me it could only do a partial upgrade. i upgraded everything i could, but i'm still on the karmic ppa's for everything - is there a way i can kick off another upgrade attempt? can i see which packages are conflicting and preventing me from upgrading?
[09:29] <syrius> (03:26:22 AM) syrius: I need help with something
[09:29] <syrius> (03:26:42 AM) syrius: I am trying to convert wav to mp4 audio and I get this error Unknown encoder 'libfaac'
[09:29] <syrius> (03:26:53 AM) syrius: I tried install libfaac0
[09:29] <syrius> (03:26:57 AM) syrius: that didn't work
[09:30] <FloodBot2> syrius: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:30] <syrius> help me
[09:30] <greppy> syrius: what are you using to do the conversion?
[09:31] <blakkheim> syrius: why mp4?
[09:31] <chenlong> mgmuscari:get a better source server.
[09:32] <mgmuscari> chenlong: kind of vague advice. i just figured out that update-manager -d will do it
[09:32] <mgmuscari> thanks anyway, though
[09:32] <syrius> yes greppy
[09:32] <syrius> because youtube doesn't allow mp3 upload blakkheim
[09:33] <syrius> I am using winff when I do the conversion
[09:33] <blakkheim> syrius: youtube is for video, you could embed mp3 audio in a blank video or a picture
[09:33] <zise> hello
[09:33] <syrius> yes I know that blakkheim
[09:33] <vasez> Ok so now I'm rather confused.  I successfully changed the username and user group, moved the home directory.  But when I do cd ~ it still looks for /home/oldusername  what am I missing?
[09:34] <syrius> blakkheim, youtube will accept ACC file which is mp4 audio
[09:34] <syrius> do you not understand?
[09:34] <syrius> that is what I am trying to do
[09:34] <konbon> thanks for the help fallas
[09:34] <konbon> im just going to format this POS windows install
[09:34] <blakkheim> syrius: i think it's you who might not understand. mp4 is a container that can use the AAC audio codec
[09:34] <konbon> it just wont clean anything, so many errors
[09:34] <syrius> ic
[09:34] <syrius> I know it is a container
[09:34] <evilmercenary> CameronH, you'll best off downloading and burning the latest version of the ubuntu disk....
[09:35] <syrius> but youtube accepts aac audio blakkheim
[09:35] <CameronH> evilmercenary k im doing that now
[09:35] <oCean> vasez: try echo $HOME, probably still pointing to old homedir
[09:35] <twiztid> chu: CHU!!! I found the perfect solution!!! http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/remastersys.html   *ReMasterSYS* clones and creates custom Ubuntu installation distros!!! No more setting up ubuntu for me! lo
[09:36] <vasez> oCean: it is, how do I change where it points to?
[09:36] <syrius> blakkheim, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Audio_Coding
[09:36] <greppy> syrius: you may want to check the winff forums or docs
[09:36] <oCean> vasez: you changed the homedir for the user? That is, the one configured in /etc/passwd?
[09:36] <llutz_> vasez: read "man usermod"
[09:37] <vasez> oCean: oCean no, llutz_ I'll go back and read some more...I thought all I needed was a usermod -l newusername oldusername
[09:37] <oCean> vasez: after that, logging in again, should've set $HOME (and ~) to correct path. When using usermod, use -d to specify homedirectory
[09:38] <evilmercenary> CameronH, great :) about partitioning: the ubuntu installer is set up to be as easy as possible. to partition in the installer, when prompted select "i want to install ubuntu alongside windows" and it will open a slider up on the menu. from there you just graphically slide along to how big you want the partition to be (i'd suggest about 10-30GB for you) and how big your windows partition will be too. then press "finish partitioning"
[09:38] <evilmercenary> and it will do it all, automated :)
[09:38] <evilmercenary> CameronH, that's how easy it will be. nothing to worry about :)
[09:38] <CameronH> Sweet
[09:40] <vasez> Thanks again everyone
[09:40] <adamx_> gotta nothing to roll with, nothing to smoke with
[09:40] <adamx_> can anyone help me rectify this situation?
[09:40] <Variability> no

[09:45] <techbreak> I downloaded thunderbird.tar.gz but dont know to install it... anybody help?
[09:45] <llutz_> !cn > zkiss
[09:45] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to application to right click ?
[09:45] <tgywa> ikonia, init:ureadahead-other main process .... terminated status 4
[09:46] <hateball> techbreak: just use your packagemanager instead
[09:46] <hateball> !apt | techbreak
[09:46] <chenlong> zkiss:me
[09:46] <hateball> techbreak: That is... open the Software Center, search for Thunderbird, tick the box, and you're done!
[09:47] <ikonia> tgywa: has this ever woked or just started failing ?
[09:47] <techbreak> hateball, well I have already downloaded the package which is in format .tar.gz. its not deb format
[09:47] <tgywa> ikonia, was working for a couple of days ...
[09:47] <xliv3> hello ?
[09:47] <hateball> techbreak: Using the package manager it downloads and installs itself... why would you want to install it manually?
[09:47] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to application to right click ?
[09:48] <ikonia> tgywa: what happened to make it break ?
[09:48] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to add application to right click ?
[09:48] <techbreak> hateball, coz i haved downloaded the .tar.gz file
[09:48] <ikonia> tgywa: readahead shouldn't stop it booting
[09:48] <blakkheim> xliv3: check out openbox or fluxbox or compiz deskmenu
[09:48] <xliv3> http://linux.softpedia.com/screenshots/WeakNet-Linux_5.png
[09:48] <xliv3> like that
[09:49] <blakkheim> looks like fluxbox to me
[09:49] <xliv3> hmm ok wait lemme see
[09:50] <tgywa> ikonia, I don't know what breaks it ... but ... added new SCSI disk ... and am using marvik backported kernel 2.6.35 ...
[09:50] <glebihan> xliv3: you may also look for nautilus extensions, there may be one to handle this
[09:50] <ikonia> tgywa: why are you using unstable software ?
[09:50] <xliv3>     sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[09:50] <xliv3> well I did try nautilus
[09:50] <xliv3> didnt work
[09:50] <ikonia> tgywa: you're using unsupported software so I'm afraid I can't progress it
[09:51] <tgywa> ikonia, what is not stable ... the backported kernel.
[09:51] <tgywa> ikonia, what is not stable ... the backported kernel.?
[09:51] <cosmodad> where does Ubuntu store credentials (username, password) for connections to a Windows share set up via the GUI?
[09:51] <chenlong> tgywa:try "Ctrl+Shift+F1~F6"
[09:52] <ikonia> tgywa: backported from an unstable OS - = not supported
[09:54] <chenlong> cosmodad:"system"->"system manager"->"user and group"
[09:55] <cosmodad> chenlong: you mean System -> Adminitration -> User and Group? (I'm using 10.04)
[09:55] <chenlong> cosmodad:maybe.
[09:56] <cosmodad> chenlong: I suppose we mean the same thing. Thanks!

[10:14] <rww> what.
[10:15] <Tricks> I have ubuntu server and have installed a program by apt-get how do you find where the program executable has been installed? I have checked /usr/local /usr/sbin etc
[10:16] <rww> Tricks: dpkg -L packagenamehere
[10:16] <rww> or if you tell me the package, I can look it up..
[10:17] <ghisen> Hi, the last update messed up my ati drivers and xorg file... now i got everything back to normal except that my second display also has the top menu bar. The screen is not "extended".. its like i got 2 primary screens. Anyone know how i can change this so the desktop i extended?
[10:18] <chenlong> ghisen:I don't know what's you mean.
[10:19] <myschak>  /set bell_beeps ON
[10:19] <Tricks> rww, stunnel
[10:20] <Tricks> rww, thanks for that one, i'll write that one down
[10:20] <[IRAQI]> incorrect sorry: When update ubuntu 10.4 will connection to ISA SERVER  for com tech? so how fix this connection?
[10:20] <rww> Tricks: stunnel's a transition package to stunnel4, which includes /usr/bin/stunnel
[10:21] <Hory> all of a sudden, my system partition doesn't work anymore
[10:21] <syrius> blakkheim, greppy I figured out the problem it seems you need to use medibu to install the fuller ffmpeg
[10:21] <Hory> how can I repair it?
[10:21] <ziroday> Hory: your system partition?
[10:21] <Hory> yeah where ubuntu is installed
[10:21] <chenlong> Hory:Can you boot?
[10:21] <Hory> no
[10:22] <Hory> I booted up slax and it say "mount wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock"
[10:22] <Hory> when I try to access it
[10:22] <greppy> syrius: ah, good deal :)
[10:22] <Tricks> rww, ah all that command showed was path to docs btw
[10:22] <ghisen> chenlong, i got the gnome meny on both screens.. i can't drag a window from screen 0 to screen 1.. i only can transfer the mouse between the screens
[10:22] <Tricks> rww, thnks for your help :)
[10:22] <ziroday> Hory: run a fsck on the drive then, or make sure you're typing in the mount command correctly
[10:22] <rww> Tricks: right, because stunnel is just a transition package. dpkg -L stunnel4 should show it.
[10:22] <Hory> the other linux partitions work in slax
[10:23] <Tricks> rww, ah cool thanks mate
[10:23] <Hory> what's the entire command for fsck?
[10:23] <myschak> #ubuntu-cz
[10:23] <pianohacker> Help! I accidentally started sugar outside its Xephyr emulator, and now my left-click has been remapped to alt-move!
[10:24] <pianohacker> I feel exclamation points are justified
[10:24] <pianohacker> as I can't find any xmodmap or config settings that are changed
[10:24] <chenlong> ghisen:do you have "compizconfig"?
[10:25] <ghisen> chenlong, yes
[10:25] <chenlong> ghisen:set 3D
[10:26] <leonidus> i 2 need compizconfig
[10:26] <ghisen> chenlong, --xinerama=on could this be something?
[10:27] <ghisen> # --xinerama=on option enables you to have two different desktops and one of them being passive.
[10:27] <ghisen> # You can drag and drop windows from one desktop to the other. Task bars appear only on one of the desktops.
[10:27] <ghisen> Thats what i want
[10:27] <ghisen> But when i run, aticonfig --xinerama=on i get aticonfig: Writing to 'xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor.
[10:27] <adamx_> blacked out today for 5 hours from booze and prescription pills... pretty fking scary
[10:28] <rww> adamx_: #ubuntu-offtopic for that.
[10:28] <rww> without the language, anyway.
[10:28] <rww> ... that's not what "without the language" means.
[10:29] <chenlong> gjisen:Is there any conflict?

[10:44] <tukadafoonday> Hey guys - can someone help me out... I don't want 1 particular program to lock out the sound. Ie. If Rhythmbox is playing and i start a youtube video in chrome I want the option to turn Rhythmbox off without having to start my web browser again to capture the sound.
[10:44] <tukadafoonday> is that possible?
[10:44] <ceil420> Guest5922: stay in school
[10:44] <bazhang> !ot | ceil420
[10:45] <ceil420> tukadafoonday: use alsa instead of oss. but i thought pulseaudio allowed sound mixing :o does ubuntu not use PA anymore?
[10:45] <ceil420> bazhang: so get him to ask an actual question ;x
[10:46] <tukadafoonday> ceil420: Thanks - where do i change it to alsa instead of oss?
[10:46] <obengdako> tukadafoonday: what is your sound setup like?
[10:46] <tukadafoonday> obengdako: Standard 10.04 install
[10:46] <cheeselom> * ##c :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services
[10:47] <werdikt> Hi all. If somebody know how to output logs to desktop?

[10:50] <tukadafoonday> it works fine!
[10:50] <ceil420> lol
[10:51] <russbos> hello, I have recently been using Ubuntu in dual boot with windows, currently it wont allow me to boot into ubuntu, when i select ubuntu the pc just cycles back to a reboot giving me the windows/ubuntu option, previously this fault was resolved with a windows scandisk, however now
[10:51] <russbos> I cant fix it
[10:51] <russbos> anyine got any ideas?
[10:51] <philinux> tukadafoonday: No worries enjoy. although I can only process so much info at once.
[10:51] <obengdako> tukadafoonday: be careful next time, well if you still want to tinker around , run this command gstreamer-properties and see your sound setup
[10:52] <philinux> russbos: is this a wubi install?
[10:52] <russbos> i think so
[10:53] <russbos> i have 2 machines 1 dual booting xp 1 dual booting vista :-s both have same problem
[10:53] <philinux> russbos: no idea then soz.
[10:53] <ceil420> russbos: have you ever been able to boot into ubuntu? :o
[10:54] <philinux> russbos: when wubi/ubuntu used old grub it was ok. but grub2 seems to play havoc.
[10:54] <russbos> yeah its been working fine, not sure if I did an update in ubuntu, im thinking thats the most likeley as both failed at same time
[10:54] <philinux> russbos: a grub update can kill of ubuntu or windows boot
[10:54] <russbos> did grub2 come out recently then?
[10:54] <obengdako> i honestly hate wubi installs
[10:55] <chenlong> russbos:restall ubuntu
[10:55] <leonidus> hve installled lamp and need a package who will monitor
[10:55] <philinux> russbos: grub 2 was the default in karmic
[10:55] <Guest157> hey guys can I get a quick bit of advice?
[10:55] <russbos> am currently trying a cd boot but its taking ages
[10:55] <chenlong> russbos:use 10.04
[10:55] <rww> The latest GRUB2 update breaks Wubi. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/581760
[10:55] <russbos> im pretey sure its 10.04
[10:55] <philinux> russbos: wubi is ok just to try out ubuntu but a dual boot is much more stable
[10:56] <chenlong> Guest157:What?
[10:56] <rww> according to reddit, anyway.
[10:56] <Guest157> should I upgrade now to 10.04, 10.10 beta or wait a few days?
[10:56] <bhaveshvala> e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Down problem
[10:56] <rww> Guest157: don't upgrade to 10.10 yet, it's not released for a reason.
[10:57] <chenlong> Guest157:10.04 is LTS,has more support and more stable.
[10:57] <mawst> Dual boot WHAT?
[10:57] <mawst> heh
[10:57] <Guest157> ok so I will wait for the release of 10.10 officially?
[10:57] <rww> Guest157: good idea
[10:58] <russbos> something i noticed which may prove its grub fault is that you only get the drive screen not the screen showing current and previous versions installed, how do i roll back grub?
[10:58] <mawst> Yeah just wait for final.
[10:58] <chenlong> russbot:install in hard disk maybe works better.
[10:58] <mawst> I ran mav for awhile. It's not that it's unstable, but some of my ppas haven't been updated yet.
[10:58] <Guest157> ok cheers, just didnt want to waste the d/l
[10:58] <mawst> Nothing wrong with waiting a bit.
[10:58] <obengdako> russbot: a live cd may be handy now
[10:59] <leonidus> hve installled lamp and need a package who will monitor
[10:59] <obengdako> russbos: a live cd might be handy now
[10:59] <russbos> chenlong: what do you mean, it is installed on hard disk, dual booting with windows, i am using cd to try recovery?!
[11:00] <obengdako> russbos: what chenlong means is wubi does not actually install ubuntu to the hard drive but install into your ntfs partition and is mounted virtually from there, so it is not actually installed to hard drive but in "windows"
[11:00] <chenlong> russbos:install another ubuntu by wubi may repair grub.I have done it.
[11:01] <jink> Hello there.  I'm trying to get my vmware 1.0.10 server (winxp x64) to boot linux-image-2.6.31-22-server, but to no avail.  I turned off quiet and splash in grub2, but after the menu's gone, I get a blank screen that stays there forever (? too long, anyway).  The last kernel I tried and would boot is the 2.6.27-7-server.  That works fine, but I'd like to upgrade.
[11:01] <FedoraUser> hi everybody
[11:02] <FedoraUser> there is ubuntu pc on my network and I want to change samba settings, but my /etc/samba/smb.conf is empty
[11:02] <bobthemilkman> Why do you want to upgrade?
[11:02] <jink> bobthemilkman: I think I need a newer smbfs to fix a subversion issue.
[11:02] <FedoraUser> but samba works and have same shared folders which it had before ubuntu upgrade
[11:03] <jink> bobthemilkman: And it kinda pisses me off that I can't find out why it won't work. ;)
[11:03] <AbhiJit> hi
[11:03] <russbos> chenlong: thanks, I understand now, this has also caused me problems as i cant access files through windows or haiku - also installed - will a wubi reinstall not wipe my files?
[11:04] <obengdako> russbos: wait
[11:04] <bobthemilkman> jink: In my professional opinion, if a version doesn't work, don't use that version.  The smbfs issue should be handled in userspace (fuse), not in the kernel, so I'm not sure that upgrading is necessary.
[11:04] <bobthemilkman> Although, a certain kernel not booting is quite a dire problem, however the solution to said problem is probably beyond the scope of a simple conversation.
[11:04] <obengdako> russbos: if you have important files in your installation don't wipe it out
[11:05] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ok.  I tried 2.6.31-14-server too and that wouldn't boot either. :(
[11:05] <obengdako> russbos: you can use a live cd to mount the old installation and copy files, configurations ,etc before you do another install
[11:06] <chenlong> russbos:install ubuntu on dard disk in diferrent boot order or diffrent pations.
[11:06] <jink> bobthemilkman: It's a cifs mount in my fstab, and this made me consider the upgrade: http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2009-01/0549.shtml
[11:06] <russbos> obengdako: thanks, should it take ages to boot live cd? maybe i need a new burn
[11:07] <obengdako> russbos: nope it doesn't take ages at least give it 2mins
[11:07] <philinux> russbos: boots faster of usb stick if your bios supports that
[11:07] <russbos> chenlong: thanks, I'll recover files and partition a space for ubuntu, should be more reliable then
[11:07] <jink> bobthemilkman: Another post suggested that it could be mptspi related (on vmware), so I put that in my /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and regenerated the initrds, but that doesn't seem to work either.
[11:07] <dli> recommend a mplayer frontend?
[11:08] <obengdako> russbos: then mount your wubi install from "/media/your hard drive/ubuntu/......
[11:08] <Syria> I lost the close, minimize, maximize buttons after installing compiz and restarting !!!
[11:08] <ceil420> dli: none
[11:08] <obengdako> russbos then do your copying
[11:08] <jink> bobthemilkman: Then again, I do admit that I haven't a clue where to start debugging this, so I'm just trying out stuff that seems to make sense to me. :/
[11:08] <russbos> philinux: its been 10 minutes already, ill try ubs, not sure if mobo supports
[11:08] <ceil420> dli: i just run it from the command line, for playing both movies and music :)
[11:08] <russbos> thannks everyone, im off
[11:09] <obengdako> Syria: explain explain further
[11:09] <bobthemilkman> Oh
[11:10] <bobthemilkman> I think I may have just happenstance found a possible solution...
[11:10] <bobthemilkman> You said you're running Ubuntu inside of a virtual machine, correct?
[11:10] <Syria> obengdako: when you open any folder or application, you can't see the control buttons, Close, maximize, minimize.
[11:10] <jink> bobthemilkman: Correct.
[11:10] <jink> bobthemilkman: (On a side note I should tell you that it runs fine on another machine (same windows, same vmware, afaict))
[11:10] <chenlong> russbos:you can store files on windows partitions or made /home stand alone,it's more reliable.
[11:10] <eberry> hu\
[11:11] <ortsvorsteher> i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idey how to fix that?
[11:11] <jink> chenlong: russbos left. :/
[11:11] <bobthemilkman> Now, I'm currently running 10.10 (which is set to be released in a few weeks), and I was looking through my available kernel images in aptititude, and I saw the following list of 2.6.31-14 to 2.6.35-22, but 2.6.35-22 is special in that it has an additional "-virtual" extension, in addition to generic and server.
[11:11] <chenlong> sorry
[11:11] <eberry> yeppi
[11:12] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ah! :)  But that's .35, which I don't yet have, here. :/
[11:12] <bobthemilkman> If, and this is a big if, if the problem is kernel related, I'd suggest going about obtaining linux-headers-2.6.35-22-virtual from the maverick repositories, and trying to boot htat.
[11:12] <bobthemilkman> You can't download it? :)
[11:12] <jink> bobthemilkman: I suppose I could. ^__^
[11:12] <jink> Although I haven't a clue what the maverick repos are. :>
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> maverick, the version after lucid.
[11:13] <jink> bobthemilkman: And I'm assuming s/headers/image/ ?
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> headers and image.
[11:13] <jink> Check.
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> Or maybe just image... I'm not sure... I really do all my kernel work in gentoo, not ubuntu, so I'm not sure.
[11:14] <eberry> libwebkit new version is not working fine in karmic
[11:15] <eberry> does any one know about it
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Can I do that with a do-release-upgrade, or should I hack my sources.list myself?
[11:15] <bobthemilkman> I'm gonna try to find the .deb's for you, and then you can just dpkg -i them.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> fdgfg
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Thanks.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> Hey Huys
[11:15] <bobthemilkman> That's the ubuntu way of installing a custom kernel, if I remember correctly.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> Can anyone help me reset my password?
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Heh. :>
[11:15] <dPix> hi all, does anyone know any way of using a computer with bluetooth and ubuntu to work as a handsfree with the phone?
[11:16] <rww> !password | sKuarecircle
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> ah no
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> sorry
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> I meant my irc password
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> or rather
[11:16] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:16] <rww> sKuarecircle: ask in #freenode
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> I want to put one on so that no one can use my username
[11:16]  * rww sighs
[11:16] <jink> bobthemilkman: In the meantime I found out that I'm running whatever, here, and I'm now upgrading to lucid (which includes a 2.6.31-25).  Would that make sense? :)
[11:16] <rww> !register | sKuarecircle
[11:17] <shariq> anybody familiar with YUI Tree view component ?!?!?!
[11:17] <AbhiJit> sKuarecircle, after registering enable nick protection
[11:17] <sKuarecircle> kewl
[11:17] <sKuarecircle> will try that , I have no idea what I am doing!
[11:17] <AbhiJit> me too
[11:18]  * jink doesn't have any idea what sKuarecircle is doing, either. :P
[11:18] <bobthemilkman> Judging by my available linux kernels in maverick, and this isn't exactly expert testimony, it appears as though there was a bug introduced into the kernel that made it unbootable in virtualization somewhere around 2.6.31-14, and evidently fixed with a patch in 2.6.35-22.
[11:19] <jink> bobthemilkman: Oh, wow... :/
[11:19] <snow_vanganh> hi

[11:19] <dPix> hi all, does anyone know any way of using a computer with bluetooth and ubuntu to work as a handsfree with the phone?
[11:19] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:19] <mac-> hi
[11:20] <jink> bobthemilkman: So the only way to fix this is get maverick, I guess.  Still makes me wonder why the other machine works, though.... :/
[11:20] <mac-> I have IBM X31 with 12" screen
[11:20] <tlir> is there a light-weight ubuntu based desktop OS which I can run from the USB stick? (as a hard drive, not as a live cd)
[11:20] <mac-> which ubuntu version I should install on it ?
[11:20] <mac-> Desktop or Netbook ?
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> Eh, you can install the maverick kernel in lucid, or even in anything :)
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> Linux is useful like that, sometimes :)
[11:20] <rww> mac-: whichever you want
[11:20] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ah, right you are. ^__^
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/linux-image-2.6.35-22-virtual
[11:20] <Ichat> tlir:  -   any ubutnu version wil do
[11:21] <elyob> Have tried increasing the timeout of sudo command ... using sudo visudo I added the timeout to Defaults        env_reset,passwd_timeout=300 ... nothing happening ... have restarted complete server ... anything else I can do to force this?
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> I believe you should be able to install that via dpkg -i, which should allow you to use the 2.6.35 kernel with the -22-virtual patch.
[11:21] <elyob> (Ubuntu server)
[11:21] <dPix> anyone know how to make the computer work as a handsfree for the phone?
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> Now, I can't say that will fix your problem, or even that it will boot, or even guarantee that your system will boot after you try to install it.
[11:21] <AndyB> I have open SSH running on 10.04, its working all fine but I cant access from outside of the local network. I have the ports forwarded via my router and I know its working because I have other ports forwarded to other computers that work. I have added the rule to iptables (which is now disabled) but yet I still cant connect from the outside. Can anyone offer any advice please?
[11:21] <sKuarecircle> soz. not me man
[11:21] <Ichat> tlir:  - xubuntu    lubuntu   can  do both  with the usb installer
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> However, since you said that it's a virtual machine, I'd go ahead and make a copy of your system, and then try to install that via dpkg in one copy, and see if it works.
[11:21] <jink> bobthemilkman: Well, it doesn't boot now, either. :P
[11:22] <jink> bobthemilkman: And as long as grub still works, I should be fine, I guess.
[11:22] <tlir> Ichat: not really, I tried ubuntu 8.10 (I know it's old but it's the discs I had here) and I installed it directly to the USB stick and it ran *REALLY* slow, I can't even operate the computer
[11:22] <sKuarecircle> dammit..using empathy to view this chat..not very useful, it moves to quick, can someone recommend an irc client for me?
[11:22] <bobthemilkman> I think so.
[11:22] <NTQ> can anybody help me with problems of slow graphics in a java application. my hardware is a thinkpad R61 with nVidia Quadro 140M and proprietary drivers from nvidia?
[11:22] <bobthemilkman> The linux image doesn't touch the MBR, so really you should always be able to select the old version in GRUB. :)
[11:22] <amol_> Need help in fixing the integrated Webcam. All help will be greatly appreciated
[11:23] <bobthemilkman> Linux does have some interesting good points :)
[11:23] <jink> bobthemilkman: That's what I'd expect. ;)
[11:23] <FedoraUser> a little help with ubuntu and samba? or should I get my coat? :)
[11:23] <Ichat> tlir:  -  use a  new  xubuntu 10.4 or  lubuntu 10.4      (desktop .iso)   and boot the live install
[11:23] <jink> bobthemilkman: I'll give it a go in a minute. :)
[11:23] <jink> Thanks so far. ^__^
[11:23] <obengdako> sKuarecircle: it is moving fast because of the frequency at which comments are being posted
[11:23] <Ichat> tlir:  - it will offer you a tool to make a usb install
[11:23] <obengdako> sKuarecircle: you can use xchat
[11:23] <bobthemilkman> However, like I said, I can't guarantee that that will work, much less fix your problem, but that would be my best guess and trying to get a booting ubuntu inside of virtualization.
[11:24] <Ichat> !usbinstall
[11:24] <bobthemilkman> Also, you said you're currently upgrading to lucid?
[11:24] <bobthemilkman> That's not really necessary, but you can if you want :P
[11:24] <sKuarecircle> Yeah I know that! but it keeps jumping yo teh bottom whenever i try and scroll up to find teh answers i want...coll thanks will try xchat

[11:26] <gaohongyan> glebihan hello!!!
[11:26] <glebihan> hi gaohongyan
[11:26] <gaohongyan> how are you ??and you java program??
[11:26] <jrib> elyob: there's no password timeout by default, so that wouldn't increase it
[11:26] <amol_> sKuarecircle, The webcam works with Windows though
[11:26] <glebihan> gaohongyan: java program ?
[11:27] <sKuarecircle> do you have skype installed? What exactly is wrong?
[11:27] <gaohongyan> java software developer!
[11:27] <gaohongyan> and you ?
[11:27] <elyob> jrib: every time I come back whilst burning cd's using abcde, it re-asks for sudo password ...
[11:27] <sKuarecircle> Mine doesn;t work anywhere else but in Skype, though to be dead honest I havent made any attempt to fic that
[11:27] <amol_> sKuarecircle, The person at the other end sees a white screen, and when I use Cheese, it gives me a green screen
[11:27] <jrib> elyob: maybe you want timestamp_timeout?  Read « man sudoers »
[11:27] <elyob> jrib: unless within 10 mins or so
[11:28] <bobthemilkman> jink: Also, for a more permanent solution, have you ever considered just overhauling your entire system from SVN to git? :3
[11:28] <glebihan> gaohongyan: that's offtopic, this is the place for ubuntu support, for other topics, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:28] <jrib> elyob: at least that's how I read the man page, maybe I'm wrong
[11:29] <gaohongyan> yes ,,i know!!  i use ubuntu version is china make ! named "YLMF"!!! you know??? glebihan!
[11:29] <elyob> jrib: yes ... that makes sense .. passwd_timeout looks like it is "waiting for a password to be entered" ... will try that .. thanks

[11:41] <Mix|Work> thank you!
[11:41] <Mix|Work> for a production environment which version do you recommend
[11:41] <Mix|Work> 10.04?

[11:41] <zamba> what makes the most sense.. create a raid of several physical disks and then run lvm on top of that, or doing it the other way?
[11:42] <zamba> creating a lvm of several physical disks and then raid on top of that again?
[11:43] <Ichat> Mix|Work:  -  for a production use id say allways use     LTS .1+   (ubuntu  8.04.1   or  til  8.04.99  .... or   10.04.1  (or above)
[11:43] <Mix|Work> Ichat: thank you, noted
[11:44] <Ichat> Mix|Work:  - in the current situation look at the latets release of   10.04
[11:44] <chenlong> zamba:I think lvm more berrter.
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: huh?
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: you didn't really understand the question, did you?
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: lvm first and then raid on top of that, or raid first and then lvm on top of that
[11:45] <chenlong> lvm first
[11:45] <Ichat> >	creating a lvm of several physical disks and then raid on top of that again? <<<< allways   use the lowest layer first
[11:45] <Ichat> chenlong ????  wtf???  -
[11:45] <jink> bobthemilkman: Yes, I realize that upgrading to lucid isn't required for your steps to work.  I'm gonna do it anyway. :P  And changing from svn to git is really not something I can make happen on a short term.  The entire company relies on svn. :o
[11:47] <bobthemilkman> jink: It might be worthwhile to just wait 2 weeks and then upgrade directly to maverick, but that's my opinion.  lucid is the LTS, after all.
[11:47] <rabbit_kan> Virtualbox,KVM,and vmware,which one is better?
[11:47] <rabbit_kan> on ubuntu.
[11:47] <amol_> Integrated Webcam not working. Please help!
[11:47] <mawst> *shrug*
[11:47] <Ichat> chenlong:  -  no?   why???  -    specially running   raid 3  raid 5  raid 6 -   do you really think that   your better off   trying to expand   1 or more of its nodes?
[11:47] <mawst> rabbit_kan, what are you trying to run?
[11:48] <jink> bobthemilkman: I could consider that.  But then again, I don't think it'll hurt to upgrade in smaller steps. :)
[11:48] <rabbit_kan> mawst:just some normal windows applications,maybe some full-screen games.
[11:48] <mawst> I hear good things about vbox
[11:48] <mawst> I'm not sure about gaming though.
[11:49] <mawst> I would try wine first as far as games go.
[11:49] <Khas> Hello.  I'm trying to configure suPHP according to http://www.suphp.org/Documentation.html, but the php script still claims there are insufficient permissions to do what it needs to do, even though the folders are set to 755.  Can anyone think of anything other than apache2.conf, suphp.conf and permissions that need altered to use suPHP?
[11:50] <chenlong> Ichat:lvm is better.
[11:50] <jrib> Khas: suphp seems to be in the repositories, are you using that?
[11:50] <SpinachHead> will .bashrc be update automatically if the ownership is not root?
[11:50] <rabbit_kan> how about vmware? is it support the full-screen game?i know vbox doesn't.
[11:50] <Khas> jrib I am.
[11:50] <Ichat> chenlong:  -    i thought you / he means    that   you either  run      kraid on top of lvm     / or  lvm on top of  kraid
[11:51] <jrib> Khas: you shouldn't need to touch any files at all then (at least that's my experience with other apache modules).  Just enable it with a2enmod
[11:51] <glebihan> rabbit_kan: vbox does
[11:52] <glebihan> rabbit_kan: although most games won't work nicely with vbox
[11:52] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:52] <Khas> jrib: I thought that at first, too, but it didn't help.  Unless, of course, there's something the script is trying to do that it shouldn't be, but the path it gives for needing permissions is fine, although it is creating files.
[11:52] <SpinachHead> when installing java, ant, etc, doesn't .bashrc PATHS get updated automatically?
[11:52] <tukadafoonday1> hey guys... I have a mate trying to install ubuntu to his PC - the installer won't pick up his mouse and keyboard?
[11:52] <tukadafoonday1> its USB.
[11:53] <jrib> Khas: you mentioned altering apache2.conf and suphp.conf though?
[11:53] <ortsvorsteher> tukadafoonday1, did you try to plug keyboard and mouse to another usb port?
[11:54] <mplabs> Hello! I couldn't fix the problem that I had yesterday...
[11:54] <rabbit_kan> glebihan:it seems noone is using vmware .
[11:54] <Khas> jrib: I did, after the point at which it was evident it didn't work.  I'll reset those changes just now, just to check.
[11:54] <tukadafoonday1> ortsvorsteher: Nah he has not tried that - i will let him know to try it.
[11:54] <tukadafoonday1> Is it likely it hasn't loaded all his USB ports?
[11:54] <[IRAQI]_> rww: are you there?
[11:54] <jrib> Khas: in any case, if you're confident it's installed and enabled ok, ##php is probably a better place to get help as to why a particular script isn't working like you expect.  I have no experience with suphp at all
[11:54] <rww> [IRAQI]_: no, why?
[11:54] <ortsvorsteher> tukadafoonday1, i dont know, i hope so ;)
[11:55] <zamba> chenlong: why lvm first?

[11:56] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any tip how to fix that?
[11:56] <Khas> jrib: yeah, I'm just trying to work through the logical possibilities.  If there's no problem with apache and suphp, then it must be the script.  But given how bizarre apache seems to be on ubuntu, I'm not confident that's the case yet :-)
[11:56] <rww> [IRAQI]_: Epistemology is offtopic for this channel, try #ubuntu-offtopic.
[11:57] <[IRAQI]_> no

[12:20] <ortsvorsteher> i ned "set it" ? chenlong
[12:21] <LjL> babu__: i think it may mean that you have a version of MPlayer not from the repositories
[12:21] <mawst> JDuke128, make sure you add iwconfig wlan0 power off to your rc.local, or it will reset when you reboot.
[12:21] <ortsvorsteher> ah, to set it... i try to find anything what i can set...

[12:31] <BlaDe^> Hi guys, is it possible for wifi to drop due to temperature?
[12:31] <BlaDe^> since I upgraded to 10.04 (Happened in beta too so I went back to 9.10) my wifi drops  and keep sprompting for a passphrase, the ONLY way to get it back is to shutdown, and turn the laptop back on -- but it seems worse if I use it on the bed or whatever... if I leave it on the desk it's been known to go over night however I had no issues at all on 9.10
[12:31] <juk> Ichat: no, Im using irssi and I know is't extensible by scripts just you gave a good idea, to write script which queries google
[12:32] <andreiutz> Hi ! Why ubuntu 10.04 won't recognize my WD external hard drive ?

[12:32] <Ichat> juk - nice idea i should do same for   chatzilla i think...
[12:33] <Ichat>  BlaDe^  - i had stuc trouble also   -  are you using   broadcom ???\

[12:35] <Thelz> Hello. On a network that otherwise consists of only Windows computers, I was running one computer with Ubuntu Server using the Samba File Server. Earlier today, I was suddenly unable to write files to the file server from one of the Windows computers. After a reboot of the Ubuntu computer, it suddenly won't connect to the internet anymore, and samba seems not to be running anymore. Anyone know what steps I could take?
[12:35] <BlaDe^> if that was the case wouldn't I of had issues on 9.10 as well as 10.04?
[12:36] <BlaDe^> I ran 9.10 for over 6 months flawlessly
[12:37] <chenlong> amol_:in the factory's official website,maybe.It's problem to all linuxer.
[12:37] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  i rand   8.04 on my laptop before  no errors  i rand   9.04  / 9.10   / 10.04   with errors ...
[12:37] <amol_> chenlong, tried that too. No luck
[12:37] <BlaDe^> i see
[12:37] <amol_> chenlong, Thanks for the time mate! :)
[12:38] <BlaDe^> is band related to signal strength Ichat  ?
[12:38] <BlaDe^> my laptop is relatively close to an access point which has 70% signal  atm
[12:38] <e1b26> hello how to bring ubuntu in active directory domain ?
[12:38] <andreiutz> Hi ! Ubuntu 10.04 won't recognize my WD external hard drive ? On windows xp the drive is working fine. What could be the problem ?
[12:39] <e1b26> through likewise ?
[12:39] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  try to find if your router supports  changing the band...   (bandwidth)...    if it does  i cant hurt to try.  -    no i think  signal   is     mesured in  Db  (desibel)   not in    bw  (mhz)
[12:39] <e1b26> anyone has Any IDea ?
[12:39] <AbhiJit> !dns | e1b26
[12:39] <BlaDe^> it doesn't seem to I'm logged into it right now
[12:40] <e1b26> abhjit what to do with DNS?
[12:40] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  out of this scope and not eniterly recommanded but what router do you use?
[12:40] <AbhiJit> e1b26, sorry wrong info
[12:40] <BlaDe^> i'm on sky broadband, they supply a router which you have to use due to them checking mac address
[12:40] <Ichat> do you know the brand?
[12:40] <Ichat> and model
[12:41] <e1b26> ill configured DNS it in server 2003 but still while joining error comes that
[12:41] <e1b26> Domain join operation failed to create the computer account in Active Directory. Common causes are a bad administrator password, a bad OU name, or an existing computer account without modification permissions.
[12:41] <BlaDe^> they supply Netgear DG834GT / DG934G   --- so one of those two
[12:41] <e1b26> anyone can help me?
[12:41] <BlaDe^> probably the first
[12:42] <under> Hi. I Installed Google Desktop but the keyboard shortcut doesnt work (CTRL+CTRL)
[12:42] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  this is WAY out of best practise you think -  but  running  openwrt or ddwrt on your router would give you sutch features ... and it would keep your mac so it should still be supported...  -  but than again,  i should not advice you to do this.
[12:43] <Thelz> If I'm running an Ubuntu Server with Samba File Server, and I reinstall Ubuntu and Samba from the CD, will the files that I stored on the file server remain available? (I understand that I'll have to reconfigure Samba, I just want to make sure the files remain)
[12:43] <BlaDe^> I'm not opposed to such things, for example both my iPhone's are jailbroken, etc. But i'd have to look into it more first
[12:43] <xinglight> :-D
