[11:09] <ranjan> hi all is there anyone with an nvidia graphics chipset using Ubuntu Lucid??
[11:09] <DASPRiD> yes
[11:09] <Janhouse> How much space do i need for boot partition?
[11:09] <minimec> itsux2bu: Exactly. In fact, the Server edition and the Desktop edition are the same 'Ubuntu' just bundled differently...
[11:10] <DASPRiD> ranjan, yes, i assume there are about 40% or so ;)
[11:10] <Janhouse> For ubuntu server. What would be optional
[11:10] <ranjan> DASPRiD, so are you one among them?
[11:10] <DASPRiD> ranjan, yes, on all 4 machines
[11:11] <ranjan> DASPRiD, so are you using the proprietary drivers?
[11:11] <DASPRiD> on three of them, yes
[11:11] <ranjan> DASPRiD, ok great then i want to know your experience  on the boot experience and plymouth
[11:12] <DASPRiD> ranjan, same as anyone using nvidia blob there: low resolution
[11:12] <ranjan> DASPRiD, so is there any workaround for that??
[11:13] <itsux2bu> how do i change the desktop gui's resolution?
[11:13] <DASPRiD> ranjan, nope, nvidia has to implement kms for that
[11:14] <DASPRiD> ranjan, but I don't really see that as a problem, you usually see the plymouth screen for about 5 seconds a day ;)
[11:14] <webczat> fuuuuuck!
[11:15] <DASPRiD> webczat, shhh, kids in here :>
[11:15] <rww> webczat: watch your language, please
[11:15] <Acid> wazzup
[11:15] <minimec> itsux2bu: on gnome desktop ->system->preferences->Monitors. If you installed some property GPU-driver from Nvidia or ATI, there is a special configuration tool for the driver.
[11:15] <david__> Since there is no linux-image-vserver for marvic, yet, I am thinking about using lucid server 32b with bttrfs for root and ext4 for /boot. How is the experience about that? Will I ran into too much trouble?
[11:16] <rww> david__: maverick support in #ubuntu+1, not here
[11:16] <itsux2bu> minimec, i have a nvidia video card
[11:17] <minimec> itsux2bu: Do you use the restricted driver from ->System->Administration->Hardware Drivers ?
[11:18] <david__> rww: I know and also asked there but I forgot to mention that I am thinking about using this setup in lucid
[11:18] <itsux2bu> i haven't used anything yet
[11:18] <rww> david__: btrfs isn't supported on Lucid ;)
[11:18] <david__> uh
[11:18] <minimec> itsux2bu: So try ->system->preferences->monitors to change resolution.
[11:18] <david__> thats a definite answer rww ;)
[11:19] <rww> or am I mixing up filesystems again
[11:19] <Gnea> finally!!! dpkg-deb: building package `linuxsta-rt3572' in `../linuxsta-rt3572_<IP_ADDRESS>+20100709-1_i386.deb'.
[11:19] <david__> I thought btrfs is shipped with ubuntu since karmic
[11:20] <rww> david__: yeah, I think I'm thinking of something else. sorry
[11:20] <bazhang> david__, no, perhaps with #ubuntu+1
[11:20] <david__> ok, ubuntu+1 definitely has it. Thanks guys
[11:20] <bazhang> david__, you can certainly go there, and ask about the debian-installer way to do it (alternate cd) but currently not an option
[11:20] <bazhang> david__, welcome
[11:20] <david__> bazhang: I have it running: marvic + btrfs
[11:21] <bazhang> david__, yep, that's the correct channel for support and discussion as its the development version
[11:21] <david__> bazhang: but I need linux-vserver and these are not yet available for marvic but a repo exists that provides them for lucid
[11:21] <itsux2bu> minimec, it gives me no choices.. just lame 800 x 600
[11:21] <webczat> why usb-creator freezes after i pressed create-startup-disk?
[11:22] <david__> seems like I have to compile my own kernel
[11:22] <batti> I have this hp machine that I wanto to put ubuntu on, but I do not want to loose the OS of HP also that boots up before windows does and gives me webbrowse etc options
[11:22] <minimec> david__: maverick not marvic ;)
[11:22] <webczat> i see installing but it doesn't do anything
[11:22] <batti> so if install, will i lose the HP OS
[11:22] <david__> minimec: oh ;)
[11:22] <volatile_rinc> u will lose hp os if you install ubuntu ova it
[11:23] <bazhang> webczat, tried unetbootin?
[11:23] <batti> volatile_rinc:  thats sad, is there a way out? i really dont want to run ubntun on a virtual machine
[11:24] <minimec> itsux2bu: So try to activate the restricted driver in ->system->administration->HArdware Drivers... Then reboot... You should then have a new Nvidia-Configuration Software in 'Applications'
[11:25] <volatile_rinc> just make space for ubuntu and install into separate partition
[11:25] <splashote> hey guys, i want to start a discussion on flattr in the forums but im not sure where to open the thread, what do you think?
[11:25] <splashote> (and girls...)
[11:26] <bazhang> splashote, try #ubuntuforums
[11:26] <splashote> bazhang: yeah, but which subforum?
[11:26] <bazhang> splashote, its an irc channel
[11:26] <minimec> itsux2bu: THe Software is called Nvidia Settings and it's in ->System->Administration ;)
[11:26] <itsux2bu> minimec, nothing listed there
[11:26] <minimec> itsux2bu: THe Software is called Nvidia Settings and it's in ->System->Administration ;)
[11:26] <splashote> bazhang: oh, ok
[11:26] <batti> i have just one disk, so i can only make partitions in it, i could put ubuntu on the partition, i know i can get boot windows as i have done dual boot before, but i m not sure about the HP Os which is so fantastic
[11:27] <noplamodo> Hmph...I'm trying to validate my PGP-key on launchpad. Currently i try to decrypt the email (which i put into a text-file) with 'gpg --decrypt [filename]' but i can't put any passphrase
[11:27] <noplamodo> neither by typing, nor by copy-paste
[11:27] <lamefun> The bittorent links are broken: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#bt
[11:29] <zvacet> lamefun: try http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/
[11:31] <royprateek> hey does anyone knows how to switch off join left messages in empathy clent
[11:31] <laxmi> solved
[11:31] <phoenixandthor> does anyone have trouble connecting to unsecured (wide open, fully public) access points using the BCM 4312 wireless card and the b43 driver?
[11:31] <phoenixandthor> running ubuntu 10.04 here on a netbook
[11:33] <royprateek> is there any good instructions for notification area
[11:34] <phoenixandthor> I can get the card to conect to encrypted networks okay, but when trying to connect to other networks (the public library, for example) it will always fail to grab an address with dhcp
[11:34] <ex_> pls give me link to czech ubuntu server
[11:34] <rizzuh_laptop> I'm starting to consider switching my laptop to mainly use Ubuntu, even though I've been a Windows user for over 10 years. The moment I played a song I immediately noticed the volume was more than twice as high as it was on Windows :D
[11:35] <phoenixandthor> I can't find anything in the logs, but then again, I don't know what to look for
[11:35] <lyhux> hello all
[11:35] <phoenixandthor> google isn't helping either
[11:36] <Illuminatus> what programa can I use to record the desktop ?
[11:36] <blq_> hi
[11:36] <Illuminatus> I wanna make a video tutorial
[11:37] <phoenixandthor> anyone in here to actually answer questions? I kind of need to get this done before class
[11:37] <basso> im having problems with EDUROAM on ubuntu, it systematicly disconnects and reconnects, anyone at another university having the same problem?
[11:37] <phoenixandthor> does anyone have trouble connecting to unsecured (wide open, fully public) access points using the BCM 4312 wireless card and the b43 driver?
[11:38] <blq_> I just switched to ubuntu .. I m a bit confused about upstart :/ somehow the init scripts in /etc/rc*.d dont get startet ....
[11:39] <rww> phoenixandthor: BCM4312 doesn't work with the b43 driver for me at all. I use the STA/bcmwl driver instead
[11:40] <phoenixandthor> okay, i'm using the jockey thing to change it right now
[11:40] <atude> How do I turn this automatic brightness decreasing stuff off?
[11:40] <atude> It's so annoying
[11:41] <Kyuusai-San> does anyone have any experience with links2
[11:41] <atude> sure
[11:41] <atude> ask your question
[11:41] <arfoll> how do I find out what package a file belongs to?
[11:41] <Kyuusai-San> atude im trying to get my links2 to to run in -g mode in my command line
[11:41] <Kyuusai-San> but i cant get it to go
[11:42] <Kyuusai-San> and cant find the configuration file to edit it
[11:42] <atude> Kyuusai-San: it's just `links2 -g`
[11:43] <atude> what error does it spit out?
[11:43] <Slart> arfoll: apt-file might be useful, or you can use the bot here in the channel
[11:44] <bluenine> Urgh, having problems with fonts/symbols :( I've finally got my computer to work with UK english, but now firefox is showing some text as weird symbols
[11:44] <bluenine> Is this a firefox thing, or a bunty thing?
[11:44] <NevroPus_> Hi. How can I set keyboard shortcuts for a user in ubuntu?
[11:44] <rkavalap> how do i get to detect my wireless card ?
[11:44] <blq_> I just switched to ubuntu 10 on one of my vservers ... I've never used ubuntu/upstart before, and somehow the init scripts dont get executed while booting ... I ve read http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html but everything looks fine as far as I can tell :/
[11:45] <phoenixandthor> you still there rww?
[11:45] <rww> phoenixandthor: yes
[11:45] <Kyuusai-San> atude its moaning at me because its saying theres no mouse but im using a touchpad
[11:45] <blq_> rkavalap: what kind of wireless card is it?
[11:45] <Kyuusai-San> lol and its also moaning about the video mode
[11:45] <rkavalap> its intel ipw2200 cant find it when i check lspci
[11:46] <Kyuusai-San> but thing is i dont know where or how to edit the ./config file
[11:46] <phoenixandthor> now I have a new problem. I can get this thing to connect to my neighbors access point (who has graciously agreed to temporarily disable his WPA), and it connects just fin
[11:46] <Kyuusai-San> lol
[11:46] <webczat> I really don't know why usb creator 0.22 freezes after i pressed make startup disk. aaaaargh!!!
[11:46] <arfoll> Slart, awesome thanks - apt-file looks like the ticket
[11:47] <rkavalap> blq_:its intel ipw2200 cant find it when i check lspci
[11:47] <phoenixandthor> but now, iwconfig is reporting this card as eth1, I can't get current connection info with a plain iwconfig command, and my conky netstats just quite working
[11:47] <rww> phoenixandthor: yeah, STA reports as eth1 instead of wlan0. no idea why.
[11:47] <webczat> any ideas?
[11:47] <blq_> rkavalap: are u sure that it doesnt show up on lspci | grep -i net ?
[11:48] <phoenixandthor> so why did all my network related programs stop working?
[11:48] <rww> phoenixandthor: the driver kinda sucks at interacting with other software, but the performance is better for me. stupid non-Free stuff :(
[11:48]  * webczat wrrs loudly!
[11:48] <rkavalap> blq_: I get the broadcom ethernet but not the intel wireless.
[11:49] <rkavalap> 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 01)
[11:49] <hassanz> hi is there any algx channel?
[11:49] <phoenixandthor> iwconfig won't work, conky won't work (and yes, I changed it from wlan0 to eth1), and my xfce panel applets stopped working. the thing that can get any info at all about my connection is NetworkManager
[11:49] <rww> phoenixandthor: yup.
[11:49] <ranjan> Hey where is that nvidia guy
[11:49] <volatile_rinc> is anyone alive here who touched tftpd-hpa?
[11:49] <phoenixandthor> is there any way to fix it so that I can at least have conky working?
[11:50] <ranjan> DASPRiD, are you there?
[11:50] <blq> rkavalap: hm.. it should show up ... are u sure it isnt deactivated in bios?
[11:50] <rww> phoenixandthor: not that I've ever found. Like I said, STA doesn't play nice, and it's not open source so we can't fix it.
[11:50] <blq> rkavalap: maybe you switched it off by some key on your laptop?
[11:50] <rww> (and this is why I'm looking for a new wifi card :\)
[11:51] <phoenixandthor> now I need one too!
[11:51] <rkavalap> blq: i checked the bios as well. its enabled. I used Fn+F2 key and checked iwconfig it doesnt detect the wireless card
[11:51] <blq> I could really need some help getting init scripts work with upstart .. I m kinda screwed up with that :/
[11:51] <phoenixandthor> and how you make your text red like that?
[11:52]  * dreamtraveler brb
[11:52] <blq> rkavalap: lspci should definitly show the device if its correctly mounted into its slot and turned on
[11:52] <phoenixandthor> ??
[11:52] <rww> phoenixandthor: that's your client highlighting my messages because I'm putting your nick at the start of them with tabcompletion
[11:52] <webczat> Usb-creator 0.2.22 freezes immediately after i press make startup disk and i really don't know what it is. installing window shows but nothing else.
[11:52] <rww> ubottu: tab
[11:52] <phoenixandthor> rww, like this?
[11:52] <rww> phoenixandthor: yes
[11:52] <rkavalap> can't believe it isnt showing :(
[11:53] <magicianlord> what isnt
[11:53] <phoenixandthor> and that makes my stuff come up in red for you?
[11:53] <phoenixandthor> a bit of a noob at irc
[11:53] <Kyuusai-San> atude do you know where the config file is for links2
[11:53]  * webczat fires a fireball at everyone
[11:53] <phoenixandthor> (and asking for help in general)
[11:54] <Danker> Hi
[11:54] <phoenixandthor> *phoenixanthor
[11:54] <Danker> Does current ubuntu livecd have LVM tools?
[11:55] <phoenixandthor> not that I know of
[11:55] <blq> I could really need some help getting init scripts work with upstart .. I m kinda screwed up with that :/
[11:55] <magicianlord> use rc.local?
[11:55] <Cesc> If someone gets access to your unprotected wifi network or hacks your password, what can he/she  do apart of using your internet connection for free? Can the hacker see your documents?
[11:55] <phoenixandthor> well, I got to go out and find a new wireless card now
[11:55] <phoenixandthor> catch ya later
[11:56] <Kyuusai-San> Cesc
[11:56] <Kyuusai-San> they will have complete access to your entire network
[11:56] <blq> magicianlord: the problem is that somehow the scripts in the /etc/rc2.d/ folder arent getting executed
[11:56] <Kyuusai-San> if you do not have any passwords on your machines
[11:56] <magicianlord> ok blq
[11:56] <Kyuusai-San> or if you have any unprotected shared resources
[11:56] <Kyuusai-San> they will have entire access
[11:57] <Cesc> Kyuusai-San, thanks.

[12:20] <KiLLeRRo> hi evryone
[12:21] <rizzuh_laptop> How do I get the temperature of the processor in Lucid?
[12:22] <KiLLeRRo> im noob in linux i have intel graphic in my laptop, but no drivers for this card in backtrack 4
[12:22] <KiLLeRRo> help me
[12:22] <rww> ubottu: lm-sensors | rizzuh_laptop
[12:22] <rww> KiLLeRRo: Backtrack isn't supported here. Try #backtrack-linux
[12:23] <muellisoft> !backtrack | KiLLeRRo
[12:23] <rizzuh_laptop> thanks rww
[12:23] <KiLLeRRo> thx rww
[12:27] <amorphine> Hello all
[12:28] <rizzuh_laptop> Is it generally safe to enable the proposed and backports repos?
[12:28] <rww> rizzuh_laptop: backports is fairly stable. proposed is not, and I'd recommend not enabling it
[12:29] <rww> rizzuh_laptop: Personally, I don't enable backports either unless there's something I need from it
[12:30] <rileyp> my real name symlinks open and play perfect on the be but on the FE they folder is empty If i put a std file in the symlionk folder it appears on the fe though
[12:31] <amorphine> hey, guys, why don't you use jabber?
[12:31]  * [gnubie] waves
[12:31] <rww> amorphine: because I don't use instant messaging. I imagine #ubuntu-offtopic would be more likely to get you a response, since that isn't really an Ubuntu support question :)
[12:32] <amorphine> rww, jabber is not only an instant messaging, there're conferences
[12:32] <[gnubie]> i'm using ubuntu lucid amd64 on my pc. how can i authenticate to my open directory hosted in mac os x snow leopard server?
[12:32] <rww> amorphine: I don't use them, either. IRC works a lot better for me.
[12:33] <rizzuh_laptop> rww, I need the k10temp driver but it's available in the next kernel release only (2.6.33). What can I do?
[12:34] <amorphine> rww, IRC has nothing better, than Jabber. And the Jabber needs to be populated as the best IM
[12:35] <rizzuh_laptop> I get this error when trying to install the k10temp driver, after compiling it: http://codepad.org/TbSzx1pR
[12:35] <rww> rizzuh_laptop: -backports and -proposed won't have 2.6.33 in them. As far as I know, there isn't a supported way to get anything above 2.6.32 in Lucid right now (though there was talk during the development cycle of setting up a process for that. Perhaps when Maverick comes out...)
[12:35] <rizzuh_laptop> :(
[12:36] <cinnabarisland12> ubuntu 10.04.1 has been released but no upgrade notification?
[12:36] <[gnubie]> i'm not sure if my question is considered ot on this channel.. i'm running mac mini server snow leopard with open directory for authentication. now, my ubuntu lucid amd64 cannot authenticate or getting an error of: failed due to unknown user.. any advice you can share?
[12:36] <rww> cinnabarisland12: point releases don't get upgrade notifications in update manager, because they're just ISO updates with updates that 10.04 users already got
[12:36] <rww> 10.04.1 = 10.04 + lucid-updates + lucid-security

[12:42] <bridie> Hi guys, I installed 10.04 on my mother in law's computer, and today I ran an update which updated flash, and certain things don't work, e.g. youtube
[12:42] <bridie> But the flash test, for example, does
[12:42] <wildman> abhijit: thx, I was expecting also a pre-installed frontend to it :)
[12:42] <sandr1x> ToXa ûõû
[12:42] <wastl> hi
[12:43] <abhijit> wildman, sudo apt-get install gufw
[12:43] <sandr1x> wildbat sudo apt-get install firestarter
[12:43] <the_german> bridie: Adobe Flash or something open e.g. gnash??
[12:43] <rcdavis> Can anyone please help :  Blank screen on irregular basis.  The only way to recover is to reboot.  Ver 10.4  Intel,  LG Flatron W2243S.
[12:43] <abhijit> sandr1x, no
[12:43] <bridie> Adobe Flash
[12:43] <sandr1x> wildman sudo apt-get install firestarter
[12:43] <bridie> @the_german
[12:43] <wildman> abhijit, sandr1x: yeah... on my way
[12:43] <wildbat>  sandr1x and then?XD ;p
[12:44] <sandr1x> wildbat to many WILD people here :)
[12:44] <wildbat> sandr1x, i know XD
[12:44] <the_german> bridie: did you try purging it and reinstalling it...?
[12:44] <bridie> Tried that using AIRAid for Firefox, yeah, the_gernan
[12:44] <bridie> *the_german
[12:45] <abhijit> wildman, sandr1x firestarter is completly separate new firewall. gufw is only frontend for ufw. so install gufw
[12:46] <wildman> abhijit: already did... and found out that the firewall is disabled by default... so I cannot mount NFS shares for another reason then :)
[12:46] <wildman> abhijit: I thought my NFS problems (as a client) were firewall related
[12:46] <abhijit> wildman, hmm
[12:46] <mikebeecham> I'm on 10.04...is it worth upgrading to 10.10 yet?
[12:46] <abhijit> may be
[12:46] <mikebeecham> or leave it till proper release?
[12:46] <abhijit> !10.10 | mikebeecham
[12:47] <the_german> bridie: well that only removes the firefox plugin, but not the whole package. Try apt-get purge and then reinstall...worked for me a couple of weeks ago
[12:47] <bridie> Okay, I'll give it a try
[12:48] <the_german> bridie: btw...what version of firefox??
[12:48] <sipior> mikebeecham: if you want to be a beta (actually, alpha) tester, and write up bug reports when things break, go ahead. they can use all the testers they can get, i'm sure.
[12:48] <sandr1x> abhijeet wrong
[12:48] <KiLLeRRo> *rww help, i heve register nick in backtrack chat but i have autoresponder is not a valid email address.
[12:48] <sandr1x> firestarter - iptables front-end
[12:48] <bridie> 3.6.8, the_german
[12:49] <abhijit> sandr1x, check firestarter description in your software center
[12:49] <mikebeecham> sipior, the only problem, is that this is also a family machine.  I dont want to really break something that will affect more than me
[12:49] <sandr1x> abhijeet check wiki
[12:49] <sipior> mikebeecham: well, there you go :-)
[12:51] <abhijit> sandr1x, he wanted the ufw frontend not the another firewall
[12:54] <sandr1x> abhijeet <wildman> where can I find the firewall settings (and how can I modify 'em) for an Ubuntu 10.04 x86 desktop?
[12:54] <sandr1x> don't see 'ufw'
[12:54] <abhijit> :/
[12:54] <sandr1x> ;)
[12:55] <wastl> sudo iptalbles -L
[12:55] <wastl> *g*
[12:55] <wildman> abhijit, sandr1x: already installed gufw, but the firewall wasn't my pb (I think ;)), thanks anyway, and forget it ;)
[12:55] <wastl> - one l
[12:55] <wastl> sudo iptables -L

[13:00] <sipior> greennode: have you tried logging in as that user at a terminal?
[13:00] <greennode> yes, and the system not recognized this name as a user
[13:01] <sipior> greennode: and the home directory is gone as well?
[13:01] <greennode> i will check this again. if nothing will work then this must be some sort of bug or sth...(?)

[13:11] <Sonderblade> when i move files to a samba share, mv says "Preserving times for "filename": Operation not permitted" how do i fix that?
[13:12] <csis> Sonderblade, You're not root ?
[13:12] <Sonderblade> csis: no
[13:13] <csis> try as a root,  i guess
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> I dont recall ever seeing  that befor. Is it NOT moving the files Sonderblade or is it just giving a warning and moving them?
[13:13] <Sonderblade> csis: with sudo it works, but i want it to work for normal users too
[13:13] <Sonderblade> Dr_Willis: just the warning
[13:14] <csis> Set permissions ..
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> check that its actually  perserving the times.. Im not even ure what times its talking about
[13:14] <karthi> hello all
[13:15] <Sonderblade> Dr_Willis: it actually appears to be "preserving the times" so i have no idea why it gives me a warning
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> Sonderblade:  i wonder if 'cp' would also give the same warning,.
[13:18] <Niglop> is there a channel for general internet based chat?
[13:18] <Sonderblade> Dr_Willis: cp -p does

[13:19] <itsux2bu> where do i get NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT drivers for ubuntu desktop?
[13:19] <abhijit> !nvidia | itsux2bu
[13:19] <itsux2bu> ubuntu desktop 64-bit
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  use the hardware-drivers tool in the menu.
[13:19] <ayekat> Hi. Is there a way to extract a raw binary floppy image out of an ISO file?
[13:19] <itsux2bu> Dr_Willis, its blank
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> thats weird. You sould of said that in the first place. :)
[13:20] <wastl> ayekat: mount it  and copy the files to somewhere?
[13:21] <wastl> argh...I should read more carefully
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  check the package manager for  the nvidia-???? package.    I forget the exact name.
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> !find nvidia
[13:21] <tommy^m> default font size should be 9 in the next ubuntu release, and radiance as default theme. look much better
[13:21] <wastl> usually the hardware-drivers tool should find and install it for you
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> !brainstorm | tommy^m
[13:21] <ayekat> wastl: what do you mean with "copy"? What about the bootsector and so on?
[13:21] <wastl> that's the easiest way
[13:22] <tommy^m> ubottu: ok thanks ddue
[13:22] <tommy^m> dude
[13:22] <wastl> ayekat: I didn't read carefully enough...am too tired....
[13:22] <greennode> ok
[13:22] <neil_d> I have a weird problem here... I have 4 hot-swap sata drives... 2 or those are used in a raid 1 for a boot partition... A fault has developed somewhere.. the system isn't showing the grub screen when booting :( ... If I remove one of the other drives (i.e. not part of the raid 1).. grub will start properly.. I then plug that drive back in and everything works OK... this didn't use to happen until a few days ago!  I have replaced the driv
[13:22] <neil_d> e with another... what could cause this?
[13:22] <greennode> everything is fine now
[13:22] <ayekat> wastl: :-)
[13:22] <greennode> the user is back
[13:22] <greennode> :)
[13:23] <wastl> ayekat:  not sure if that is  possible....most live and install cd 's use a packed fs wich won't fit on a floppy
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> a bootable cd. has some sort of 'floppy' image (or at least used to) to make it bootable  thats built into the iso some how isent it? Ive never dug that hard into bootable cds
[13:23] <greennode> it was caused by two ubuntu installations 10.04
[13:23] <greennode> one 64bit and one32
[13:23] <erUSUL> neil_d: someone reordered the drives in bios and the hd containing the grub mbr is not the first in the boot sequence ?
[13:23] <greennode> only one of them has two users
[13:23] <greennode> the other only root
[13:23]  * wastl suggests using unetbootin and put it onto usb stick
[13:23] <erUSUL> neil_d: s/someone/something/
[13:24] <greennode> looks like grub switched the list
[13:24] <ayekat> wastl: so IMG -> ISO is possible but not vice versa?
[13:24] <itsux2bu> Dr_Willis, synapic package manager?
[13:25] <wastl> IMG _> ISO is not possible directly hence its different formats
[13:25] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  yes. or the command line..
[13:25] <neil_d> erUSUL: ok I don't see how, but I will reorder the drives.. (it this computer) ... so bye for now.
[13:25] <ayekat> wastl: ok, I'll look for unetbootin
[13:26] <wastl> sudo apt-get install unetbootin should do
[13:26] <wastl> afair its somewhere in universe or multiverse repo
[13:26] <hj> i've got a question about ubuntu server, sometimes it doesn't respond for a minute or so.. i can't find anything about it in the log files. what should I check next?
[13:27] <wastl> what exactly don't respond hj? No ping, no http, no something? no natwork traffic at all?
[13:27] <abhijit> hj, try in #ubuntu-server
[13:28] <hj> nothing, not even ssh
[13:28] <wastl> join #ubuntu-server
[13:28] <spazmi> why do I get the following errors on my Torrentflux installation? - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/554kXGK9
[13:28] <spazmi> it still works but I get all these errors
[13:28] <hj> i'll try server, thanks
[13:28] <rizzuh_laptop> Is there a program to edit .iso files in the repos?
[13:28] <erUSUL> ayekat: http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=308491
[13:28] <csis> rizzuh_laptop, mount that iso
[13:28] <csis> mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/test
[13:29] <wastl> sudo it csis :)
[13:29] <wastl> we're on ubuntu :)
[13:29] <csis> yeah :)
[13:29] <DJAshnar> k.  10.10 Alpha 3 is installed.  Who dares me to reboot?

[13:31] <Dr_Willis> !info kiso
[13:31] <itsux2bu> Dr_Willis, ok.. several entries have green dots next to them..
[13:31] <manipulate> D:
[13:31] <rizzuh_laptop> csis, that's read-only.
[13:32] <rizzuh_laptop> csis, I need to edit a .iso.
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> itsux2bu:  clarify what you are talking about please. on IRC - we tend to have an attention span thats only as long as the screen buffer is tall...
[13:32] <csis> rizzuh_laptop, --rw
[13:33] <csis> or -w
[13:33] <csis> Use man frequently
[13:34] <wastl> rizzuh_laptop: you cannot simply "edit" an iso image
[13:34] <wastl> you can mount it
[13:34] <wastl> and change it
[13:34] <wastl> then unmount it
[13:34] <rizzuh_laptop> Yeah well mounting it results in... read-only
[13:34] <neil_d_> reordering the drives did fix it :)  ... had to try two times.
[13:34] <itsux2bu> in synaptic are several "nvidia" entries with green dots next to them.. which looks as if that indicates they are installed, maybe?
[13:34] <csis> well pass the -w argument
[13:34] <DJAshnar> gonna reboot!  WOOWOO!  *prays ACPI works*
[13:34] <rizzuh_laptop> csis, oh...
[13:34] <csis> use "man mount"
[13:35] <DJAshnar> MAN MOUNT!?!?!  AHHHHH!
[13:35]  * DJAshnar hides
[13:35] <wastl> rizzuh_laptop: mount -o loop,rw -t iso9660 isoimage.iso /mnt
[13:35] <wastl> ops forgot the sudo too

[13:51] <rizzuh_laptop> To simply add a file to a .iso. There's a bazillion programs to do that on Windows or OS X, looks like next to none for Linux-based.
[13:51] <csis> mr. csis :) Oh Lord
[13:51] <_F-117> anurag_ : root the phone or jailbreak then tether

[13:52] <psycho> _F-117: I used packet capturing to see if the computer was able to hear the xbox 360.  When the xbox tries to test the network connection, it sends these packets: DHCP, "who has <IP_ADDRESS>?", ARP Requests/Reply, NOTIFY HTTP/1.1....all being totally useless because the computer does not respond to the xbox.

[13:55] <kunka> FUCK
[13:55] <sipior> psycho: sorry, missed your earlier posts: how are the two connected?
[13:55] <psycho> `sudo route` OK. `iptables -L` OK.
[13:56] <psycho> sipior: an ethernet cable.
[13:56] <sipior> kunka: try #tourettes
[13:56] <psycho> sipior directly
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> rizzuh_laptop:  if you cd to teh mountpoint, then 'sudo -s'  or -i, that can still be using it.  ive had that happen befor
[13:56] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: "sudo lsof /dev/sdxx" should show what is using it
[13:56] <rizzuh_laptop> Oh, and "system testing" has been running "gathering information" for over two hours, what's the process name so I can kill it?
[13:56] <battler> anyone who can help me with a corrupted grub?
[13:56] <rizzuh_laptop> erUSUL, it's a .iso file, not a device; will that still work?
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> rizzuh_laptop:  if it has a GUI window. use the xkill command
[13:56] <sipior> psycho: a crossover cable? does the xbox nic do auto-MDIX?
[13:56] <blue_anna> I should not have to remove the lokc file and reconfigure dpkg from an automatic update that wont go away :(
[13:56] <csis> sure
[13:56] <ddvlad> hi, i can't install libgtk2.0-dev; it says that it requires libgtk2.0-0=2.20.1-0ubuntu1, but i have version ubuntu2 -- any workaround to this other than downgrading libgtk, which has a lot of consequences?
[13:56] <sipior> psycho: or your computer's card, for that matter?
[13:57] <blue_anna> definitely not more than once
[13:57] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: iso got mounted in loop devices. /dev/loop0
[13:57] <csis> battler, where's the problem ?
[13:57] <Pici> !pinning | blue_anna this may help
[13:57] <ranjan> hi all where is the skin directory for latest xbmc
[13:57] <Pici> rizzuh_laptop: iirc, the process is checkbox.
[13:57] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: but i think « sudo lsof /mount/point » also work
[13:57] <_F-117> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFW4LqsTPO0
[13:57] <itsux2bu> erUSUL, thx.. worked perfectly
[13:57] <rizzuh_laptop> erUSUL, looks like bash is using it... how I don't know.
[13:57] <battler> csis: well I tried to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4 after that the entire system was screwed.
[13:58] <csis> battler, grub you mean ?
[13:58] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: see Dr_Willis comment. do you have a terminal open on the folder?
[13:58] <Pici> _F-117: This is a support channel, please don't advertise  here.
[13:58] <battler> csis: 9.10 uses grub and 10.4 uses grub2 this messed up my system
[13:58] <rizzuh_laptop> erUSUL, nope I don't. I'll close bash and try then.
[13:58] <battler> csis: Maybe someone can help me with fixing my grub
[13:58] <_F-117> OPs
[13:58] <rizzuh_laptop> Yeah that did it
[13:59] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: anyway; lsof gives you the PID of the process and the owner. just kill it
[13:59] <blue_anna> Pici - thank you
[13:59] <csis> battler, use your live cd 10.4 and fixmbr
[13:59] <erUSUL> rizzuh_laptop: kill PID
[13:59] <csis> edit grub.conf as needed.
[13:59] <battler> If I try a live cd I get a blank screen.
[13:59] <blue_anna> oo wow I got a preal problem .. it's trying to unpackage the cabextract file before it will do anything.
[13:59] <csis> battler, why is that ?
[14:00] <blue_anna> Like I just ran sudo apt-get autoremove, and it went back to unpackaging the cabextract.deb file
[14:00] <battler> csis: i'm trying to "recover a system mode" from ubuntu server
[14:00] <blue_anna> which hangs
[14:00] <rizzuh_laptop> erUSUL, I used xkill
[14:00] <KE1HA> battler, try using the ALT ISO, when prompted select rescue
[14:00] <KE1HA> then re-install your Grub from there.
[14:01] <olskolirc> easier said than done KE1HA
[14:01] <battler> KE1HA: Where can I get the ALT ISO? Is this from ubuntu self?
[14:01] <KE1HA> battler, http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04.1/

[14:06] <blue_anna> aronaliaga, pero sí puedes decirlo en ambos - bien. otr vez, debes usar la otra canal
[14:06] <aronaliaga> esq mi ingles es a nivel de usuario y tal
[14:06] <ayekat> noname: use APT => (as root): apt-get install virtualbox
[14:07] <aronaliaga> anna, no me seas asi,jejejeee   q no te he hecho nada malo
[14:07] <blue_anna> aronaliaga, pues .. vale
[14:07] <ayekat> noname: or "aptitude", if you like

[14:07] <aronaliaga> jajaja
[14:07] <neil_d_> I can play a movie with vlc and mplayer.. but I can't use mencoder on it :(.. I think it is because mencoder tries to read the DVD at maximum speed and the others don't ... can I tell mencoder to slow down its reading of the DVD?
[14:07] <guyfrompluto> yeah done it
[14:07] <_nick> noname, search it on ubuntu software center
[14:07] <erUSUL> aronaliaga: no; no está bien. No hay ningun problema con el chat en español. Si te quedas aqui usa ingles.-

[14:07] <Vroomfondle> !spanish
[14:08] <blue_anna> he can't access the es channel for some reason
[14:08] <hassanz> gcc
[14:08] <aronaliaga> yess
[14:08] <aronaliaga> anna
[14:08] <aronaliaga> my inglish is very very bad
[14:08] <blue_anna> aronaliaga, sí, bueno, vale la pena :P
[14:08] <blue_anna> intentalo
[14:09] <aronaliaga> lo intento
[14:09] <aronaliaga> pero no entra
[14:09] <blue_anna> :o
[14:09] <KE1HA> noname, follow the instructions on the VirtualBox site, it yields a better installation. Also, you need build-essential and linux headers to install the add-on's.
[14:09] <blue_anna> you need to say more english than that :)
[14:09] <battler> KE1HA: I'm using a LVM will this tut still work?
[14:09] <blue_anna> ooh
[14:09] <aronaliaga> mi duda es super rapida
[14:09] <aronaliaga> anna
[14:09] <aronaliaga> si me haces el favor
[14:09] <aronaliaga> pleaseee
[14:09] <blue_anna> aronaliaga, lo siento, no tengo la razón para eso
[14:09] <noname> @KE1HA : Give me the link ?
[14:10] <collabra> cmon,... this is not a spanish channel
[14:10] <ayekat> KE1HA, noname: why not use a package manager? Easier to learn, to use and to maintain...
[14:10] <KE1HA> battler, I'e tried it on a standard LVM, but not encrtypted.
[14:10] <aronaliaga> collabra excuse me
[14:10] <blue_anna> aronaliaga, charlar conmigo privadamente
[14:10] <aronaliaga> ok
[14:10] <KE1HA> ayekat, you can if you so choose, but the VirtualBox site instructions has a better implementation.
[14:10] <noname> @ ayekat : i'm new with linux ..what's package manager ?
[14:11] <ortsvorsteher> Hi, on my laptop sound doesnt works. after switching from also to oss4 still no sound. ubuntu 10.04, intel soundcard. any idea how to manage that sound works?
[14:11] <battler> KE1HA: Only my home dir is encrypted so that should be ok
[14:11] <ayekat> KE1HA, noname: Ok, the package manager only provides the opensource edition... without USB support but -
[14:12] <KE1HA> ayekat, if you read the site, you will see what the diffrences are.
[14:12] <ayekat> noname: in Ubuntu (and also other distros), many programms are also provided in so-called "packages"
[14:12] <MrDudle> why does the download page say 64bit isn't recommended for daily usage
[14:12] <MrDudle> what is the perk of 32
[14:12] <ikonia> MrDudle: that's a old statment that needs removing
[14:12] <MrDudle> ah
[14:13] <ayekat> noname: you can use "Synaptic" (a GUI tool) to install/uninstall/update packages
[14:13] <hassanz> hi how do i fix this error? configure: error: no acceptable C++ compiler found in $PATH
[14:13] <MrDudle> cause my system came with win7 64bit so i was like wut
[14:13] <LjL> !b-e > hassanz
[14:13] <collabra> MrDudle: I've been using the 64 bit flavor of kubuntu since 10.04,... I'ts stable and secure... I've had no problems
[14:13] <godbod> Hello, someone knows how to get DHCP and static ip activated on the same eth0 card for instance ?
[14:13] <ayekat> noname: it's faster than searching for the programm on the web and then download and compile and install it all by hand.
[14:13] <MrDudle> k
[14:13] <noname> @ayekat : where can i find that tool ?
[14:13] <wastl> hassanz:  check if you have the c++ compiler and dependencies installed
[14:14] <hassanz> i have gcc installed
[14:14] <wastl> hassanz: sudo apt-get install build-essential should install all you need
[14:14] <hassanz> ok thanks
[14:14] <minimec> MrDudle: In my ees that comes 'from ancient times', when there were some incompabilities with very current software... Shlouldn't be a problem anymore.
[14:14] <collabra> MrDudle: I've been apologizing for that 'suggestion' since the beginning... It's a mis-nomer of sorts... I wish they wouldn't have posted those comments.
[14:14] <ayekat> noname: you can also use the console, if you prefer, with "apt-get" or "aptitude"
[14:14] <MrDudle> kk
[14:15] <ortsvorsteher> Hi, on my laptop sound doesnt works. after switching from also to oss4 still no sound. ubuntu 10.04, intel soundcard. any idea how to manage that sound works?
[14:15] <MrDudle> now if only ubuntu would download faster than 10kb/s... ---
[14:15] <wastl> godbod: you can't. What you can do is let eth0 do dhcp and create a "virtual" eth0: with  a static config
[14:15] <ylmfos> i don't know how to perfect my system
[14:15] <wastl> godbod: but in this case mind your routing
[14:15] <ayekat> noname: although I would recommend "Synaptic" for the beginning...
[14:15] <collabra> MrDudle: lol,... yeah :)
[14:15] <abhijit> !sound | ortsvorsteher

[14:16]  * abhijit have upto 40KB/s
[14:16] <godbod> wastl > how can I do that ?
[14:16] <abhijit> ortsvorsteher, i cant help
[14:16] <collabra> MrDudle : the website is throttled,... not much you can do,... but I usually get around 170 to 230 KBs
[14:16] <blue_anna> I need help cleaning the system state after an automatic install blew up my system -- detailed help please, because editing a dangerous file without any idea of what Im doing just sounds like the wrong way™
[14:16] <MrDudle> collabra, omfg

[14:16] <collabra> Kbits,... sorry
[14:16] <ortsvorsteher> Hi, on my laptop sound doesnt works. after switching from alsa to oss4 still no sound. ubuntu 10.04, intel soundcard. any idea how to manage that sound works?
[14:17] <ayekat> ayekat: you're welcome - of course you might also want to install programms that aren't provided as pacakges - such as VirtualBox
[14:17] <MrDudle> oh even greater collabra
[14:17] <MrDudle> the torrents aren't there -_-
[14:17] <collabra> MrDudle: lol,.. yeah.
[14:17] <MrDudle> apparently i'm not supposed to download it
[14:17] <hassanz> ortsvorsteher: press that mute button
[14:17] <collabra> lol
[14:17] <ayekat> noname: as KE1HA said, there are differences between the opensource version ("sudo apt-get install virtualbox") and the original version (=> website)
[14:17] <noname> i need to install flash player to make my youtube videos work in ubuntu .how to do that guys
[14:18] <ortsvorsteher> hassanz, an then?
[14:18] <hassanz> it worked for me
[14:18] <MrDudle> collabra, is there some weird bs going on with downloads today
[14:18] <_raven_> need help with ubuntu and openMOSIX please
[14:18] <noname> ayekat : yes i get it
[14:18] <blue_anna> seems like there aught to be a apt-get clean pkg_name or something
[14:18] <ortsvorsteher> hassanz, i tried, it doesnt work
[14:18] <hassanz> ortsvorsteher: the mute button on laptops just change the mixer settings and dont show it on gui
[14:18] <collabra> MrDudle: if you have an ethernet connection, I suggest downloading the ubuntu minimal.... from there you can do a net install,... your final product will be fully updated.
[14:19] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: First, go back to the default pulse+alsa settings and check the properties of the volume applet. If your card is not listed there, you have an alsa problem. In my eyes oss is depreciated
[14:19] <olskolirc> Paltalk is still down :-(
[14:19] <noname> ayekat : do you know what's the package name of flash player
[14:19] <MrDudle> collabra, yeah i'm too lazy for that
[14:19] <BluesKaj> noname, install flashplugin-installer
[14:19]  * MrDudle just wants his slightly less than 700mb iso to burn and go

[14:19] <noname> BluesKaj : thanks

[14:19] <collabra> MrDudle: the download is about 17mb

[14:23] <jasonmchristos> i am having a problem where disk usge ana. says i have 4.1 gb in the log directory but when i open it in the file browser it says 2.5 gb freespace which doesnt make snse to me
[14:23] <KE1HA> ayekat, the main problem with using the repo version is, when you install Guest-Add-On's you'll get failures, which causes issues in screen resizing, mouse control and sometime even networking issues.
[14:23] <BluesKaj> noname, open your package manager and enable canonical partners and other sources in the sources option
[14:23] <blue_anna> what's going on? now I'm having problems unpacking the next package in the install list ..
[14:23] <olskolirc> I can't install google earth
[14:23] <jasonmchristos> please halp!
[14:23] <blue_anna> it looks like suddenly my computer started having problems unpackaging things
[14:23] <blue_anna> like, in general
[14:23] <olskolirc> it crashes on lucid
[14:23] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: what does dmesg |grep Audio give you as output?
[14:23] <BluesKaj> noname, then install
[14:24] <noname> BluesKaj: as i told you i'm new with ubuntu . can you guid me to package manager
[14:24] <furuno> erUSUL: umm, let me recheck the user's bashrc and global bashrc, but I seems to forget where...
[14:24] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: why not?
[14:24] <erUSUL> furuno: undo your modification to ~/.bash_profile ( or ~/.profile )
[14:24] <olskolirc> crashes jasonmchristos
[14:24] <ortsvorsteher> minimec, nothing.
[14:24] <ayekat> KE1HA: I see - well, then maybe better use the non-opensource edition...
[14:24] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: Audio not audio
[14:24] <erUSUL> furuno: that's alll that's needed ( and remove the script if you are not going to use it )
[14:24] <olskolirc> I read getting google earth on Lucid was a problem jasonmchristos
[14:25] <collabra> blue_anna: sounds like you otta put cabextract back in... lol
[14:25] <ortsvorsteher> yes minimec, i tried Audio
[14:25] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: i dunno ive had it on karmic and havent tried it it runs much better on windoz anyway
[14:26] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: Stupid me... lspci |grep Audio
[14:26] <blue_anna> I dont understand .. I mean its not required for linux packages .. its required for microsoft updates and stuff
[14:26] <jasonmchristos> in my experience
[14:26] <blue_anna> its basically the old Z "zip" format
[14:26] <BluesKaj> noname, the same package manager you used to try to install flashplugin-insyaller
[14:26] <blue_anna> with fixded block sizes
[14:26] <ortsvorsteher> minimec, 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[14:26] <olskolirc> it always ran better for me on linux jasonmchristos and i can run virtualbox at the same time without cpu problems unlike windows
[14:26] <furuno> erUSUL: Just in case, I want to check the global bash profile, but I forget where it is... any enlightment?
[14:26] <noname> i used terminal for that
[14:26] <blue_anna> and I was having this problem before I removed cabextract
[14:27] <noname> BluesKaj: iused terminal for that
[14:27] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: well im not ure i did it on karmc and had no problems try and figure out why it is crashing
[14:27] <collabra> blue_anna: maybe cabextract was a pre-requisite for the next on the list?... :(
[14:27] <blue_anna> in fact, this is the problem I -had- removing cabextract
[14:27] <erUSUL> furuno: /etc/profile ? /etc/skel/.profile ? you should know what files you edited
[14:27] <olskolirc> im on Lucid jasonmchristos
[14:27] <blue_anna> ** upgrading it
[14:27] <BluesKaj> noname, look in the panel
[14:27] <olskolirc> its a tuffy
[14:27] <erUSUL> blue_anna: apt-cache rdepends cabextract
[14:27] <olskolirc> i have the crash log but im to exhuasted to go through it or use pastebin jasonmchristos
[14:27] <blue_anna> there are a few things in that list
[14:28] <blue_anna> but I know that at least some of them are not installed
[14:28] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: yes i know alls i can offer is try to figure out why it is crashing, seems like if its crashing its already installed
[14:28] <collabra> blue_anna: try what erUSUL suggested
[14:28] <blue_anna> like liborange and orange, I saw that in synaptic when I went to deinstall cabextract -- it wasnt ever isntalled
[14:28] <blue_anna> collabra, I did
[14:28] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: Did you see that post (just found that) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036508
[14:28] <blue_anna> collabra, it lists things regardless of whether they are actually installed
[14:28] <collabra> blue_anna: Ah,.. and...?
[14:28] <erUSUL> collabra: blue_anna that only shows the packges that need cabextract
[14:28] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: get some rest and things will come together much easier try again tomorrow
[14:28] <olskolirc> i should dump 057 and use an older one jasonmchristos
[14:29] <jasonmchristos> olskolirc: 057?
[14:29] <olskolirc> version
[14:29] <olskolirc> 0.5.7
[14:29] <jasonmchristos> of google earth?
[14:29] <noname> BluesKaj : panel .(Applications -Places - system) pachage manager under which opetion ?
[14:29] <olskolirc> yeah
[14:29] <blue_anna> collabra, I did the uninstall through synaptic -- so before it had problems it first uninstalled the depeneds I had that had it .. there was just the ttf microsoft installer
[14:29] <ortsvorsteher> minimec, so i try to switch back to alsa and after that i try that link which you gave me. thank you
[14:29] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: The line you pasted is a good start for bug tracking... http://www.google.ch/search?hl=de&source=hp&q=Intel%20Corporation%2082801I%20ubuntu&meta=&aq=f&oq=
[14:30] <jasonmchristos> i usually go with the newest version unless for some reason it wont work
[14:30] <minimec> ortsvorsteher: No problem.
[14:30] <ortsvorsteher> :)
[14:30] <furuno> erUSUL: I guess I've cleaned the files... just in case should I just reinstall bash completion?
[14:30] <blue_anna> but this is the first thing I noticed .. cabextract was hanging when being updated .. during the unpackaging. it sat overnight, never completed
[14:30] <BluesKaj> noname, sources
[14:30] <jasonmchristos> i have a dell computer that i have to use old karmic intel drivers for but its rrunning lucid or else it will crash xorg
[14:30] <blue_anna> now thats gone, and Im running the updates .. and it is hanging on the next (unrelated) file in the update list
[14:31] <erUSUL> furuno: if you only did what that page says there shouldn't be needed
[14:31] <jasonmchristos> it had that problem in karmic also though
[14:31] <blue_anna> so it looks slike something more fundamental than cabextract was the issue all along
[14:31] <BluesKaj> noname or you could do alt+f2 , gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources list and remove the # from the deb url repositories then in the terminal. sudo apt-get update , then sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[14:31] <olskolirc> i have Meerkat in virtualbox jasonmchristos ITS SWEET - when it gets stable its going to rock
[14:31] <jasonmchristos> but it seems xorg doesnt want to fix it its an problem thats been repored
[14:31] <furuno> erUSUL: well, will try rebooting now (reinstalled video driver), thanks!
[14:31] <jasonmchristos> whats meerkat?
[14:31] <noname> BluesKaj : well now the answer is clear
[14:31] <noname> :)
[14:31] <olskolirc> the new ubuntu coming out in October jasonmchristos
[14:31] <collabra> blue_anna: I always use aptitude for installing and uninstalling.... I feel i have more control... like when uninstalling,... I'll pick the package I want to uninstall,... then select the depends and the recommends,... hit enter and it automatically keeps the packages i need and uninstalls the orphans
[14:31] <noname> BluesKaj :thanks
[14:32] <olskolirc> RC3 is out now jasonmchristos
[14:32] <blue_anna> kinda like a praerie rat
[14:32] <jasonmchristos> oh cool
[14:32] <Pici> olskolirc: No, Alpha 3.
[14:32] <blue_anna> collabra, this was the system automatic update :P
[14:32] <olskolirc> oops
[14:32] <rileyp> symbolic link on front end not showing up in mounted dir when both symlink folder and original file folder are both mounted locally in exact same dirs
[14:32] <BluesKaj> noname, you're welcome
[14:32] <AzaToth> I've got an older HP Pavilion tx1000 and trying to figure out how to get both cores to work, at the moment only one of them is working
[14:32] <blue_anna> collabra, I didnt do a damn thing to start this, just turn on my computer the other day
[14:32] <collabra> blue_anna: that would be frustrating
[14:32] <rileyp> Can anyone help me with this
[14:33] <jasonmchristos> i am having a problem where disk usge ana. says i have 4.1 gb in the log directory but when i open it in the file browser it says 2.5 gb freespace which doesnt make snse to me
[14:33] <bobthemilkman> I think I broke apt-get. I was trying to install flashplugin-nonfree, but due to some issues with it not properly respecting $HTTP_PROXY or ctrl+c interrupts, I killed the process. Now nothing works with apt-get.
[14:33] <blue_anna> I still dont understand why cabextract is getting yearly updates .. nothing about that software has changed in _at least_ 20 years
[14:33] <sburjan> hello. is there a way to shring a linux partition ?
[14:33] <blue_anna> for as long as microsoft was a major company
[14:33] <Pici> blue_anna: Have you looked at the changelogs?
[14:34] <jasonmchristos> sburjan samba
[14:34] <bobthemilkman> debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[14:34] <minimec> bobthemilkman: open a console and type sudo dpkg --configure -a in it. Close synaptic before...
[14:34] <_raven_> how to run ubuntu as openMOSIX-host?
[14:34] <furuno> erUSUL: well, I got "normal" bash completion but cannot have autocompletion with apt-get...
[14:34] <sburjan> jasonmchristos, : not to share, to shrink .. to make it smaller
[14:34] <bobthemilkman> minimec: Done it, does nothing.
[14:34] <bobthemilkman> Also gives me the same error about resource temporarily unavailable.
[14:34] <collabra> blue_anna: the linux community,... or ubuntu,.. need to come up with some sort of system restore for linux.
[14:35] <minimec> bobthemilkman: ok. sudo apt-get update
[14:35] <bobthemilkman> update works.
[14:35] <_raven_> how to run ubuntu as openMOSIX-host?
[14:35] <minimec> bobthemilkman: ok. sudo apt-get upgrade
[14:35] <p1und3r> hey all, does anyone know the best way to mount the SAME drive to the SAME mount point everytime? i have 2 externals but one time they may sdc another time it could be sdd
[14:35] <bobthemilkman> upgrade doesn't.
[14:35] <bobthemilkman> "2 not fully installed or removed." then same error.
[14:35] <minimec> bobthemilkman: error mesage?
[14:35] <bobthemilkman> "debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable"
[14:35] <blue_anna> I wouldnt know where to restore it to if I did it
[14:36] <jasonmchristos> sburjan im sure there is a way not sure if gparted would do it or not
[14:36] <blue_anna> I never saw what broke, I just saw afterwards, when my system apparently started having problems unextracting all deb files
[14:36] <sburjan> thanks
[14:36] <minimec> bobthemilkman: ok. there is another apt process hanging...
[14:36] <bobthemilkman> There isn't. ps -ef | grep apt only returns the grep command.
[14:36] <furuno> hmm according to some threda in a forum, I seems to be missing "/etc/bash_completion", anyone kind enough to give me a sample?
[14:37] <bobthemilkman> pgrep apt returns nothing.
[14:37] <minimec> bobthemilkman: If there is no other package software open, I would consider a reboot to kill that process. You can also kill it in the gnome-system-monitor, I guess.
[14:37] <furuno> or should I just reinstall bash_completion?
[14:37] <bobthemilkman> minimec: There is no process.
[14:37] <sipior> furuno: that'd be simplest, i think
[14:37] <bobthemilkman> Hold up, the problem fixed itself.
[14:37] <BluesKaj> bobthemilkman, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[14:38] <bobthemilkman> I think when I killed apt-get before, there was a hanging thread or something.
[14:38] <bobthemilkman> Anyway, it's fixed itself after about 10 minutes.
[14:38] <minimec> bobthemilkman: That's the calssic error message. Try a reboot first.
[14:38] <erUSUL> furuno: reinstall the package  then...
[14:38] <collabra> blue_anna: you're making me a little pensive about having my system automatically update.
[14:38] <bobthemilkman> The problem just went away.
[14:38] <blue_anna> wow I see like a dozen dpkg apps running here
[14:38] <minimec> bobthemilkman: So we are lucky ;)
[14:38] <furuno> sipioir, erUSUL: did that, now all's good :) many thanks
[14:39] <bobthemilkman> minimec: If you call having the latest version of flashplayer lucky :(
[14:39] <erUSUL> furuno: ... you did more ( damage ) that what that web page said....
[14:39] <bobthemilkman> I swear to God, every single thing about flash makes me want to kill myself.
[14:39] <furuno> erUSUL: indeed
[14:39] <ljsoftnet> yeah
[14:40] <ljsoftnet> it eats too much CPU power for just a simple youtube video
[14:40] <jasonmchristos> is it safe to delete whats in var/log
[14:40] <blue_anna> err .. they don't respond to kill -9 either
[14:40] <blue_anna> guess Im gonna reboot
[14:40] <jimishol> hello
[14:40] <minimec> bobthemilkman: I do agree, but I was rather thinking about a sane package system ;)
[14:40] <jasonmchristos> question: is it safe to delete whats in var/log
[14:40] <collabra> blue_anna: that's what i'd do...
[14:40] <erUSUL> jasonmchristos: if it is a file too big; it is safer to zero it
[14:40] <bobthemilkman> In that sense, yes, I'm lucky :P
[14:41] <mikebeecham> hi guys...quick question.  I want to download the 10.04 iso...using grub2, will I need to place this somewhere in order to boot from it, or can I just double-click the iso from the HDD?
[14:41] <jasonmchristos> erUSUL: i have 4.1gb of logs its rediculous
[14:41] <furuno> mikebeecham: you'll need to burn the ISO to a CD
[14:41] <_raven_> how to run ubuntu as openMOSIX-host?
[14:42] <erUSUL> jasonmchristos: first findo out the culprit ( the actual log file) then check what is spamming the log
[14:42] <mikebeecham> furuno, someone mentioned that Grub2 would allow me to do it differently somehow?
[14:42] <furuno> mikebeecham: if you're using windows 7, there's should be very easy, just select the ISO and choose Burn Disc Image from the menu
[14:42] <jasonmchristos> erUSUL: i think i t might be system mail
[14:42] <mikebeecham> furuno, Ubuntu
[14:42] <jcrawford> hey guys currently my /usr/bin/java points to alternative, how can I make this use the sun java?
[14:42] <erUSUL> jcrawford: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[14:42] <jasonmchristos> i have something sending every ip connection to my usemail
[14:42] <mikebeecham> I'm using 10.04, and I want to do a completely clean install...I've been using linux 3 years and think I've built up loads of rubbish
[14:42] <mikebeecham> I was going to start fresh
[14:42] <csgeek> I've removed /var/lib/posgresql, and removed all the postgres related packages, now I'm trying to re-install all of them but its not re-creating the directory or the binaries needed.
[14:43] <furuno> mikebeecham: GRUB2 is a bootloader, which give you the ability to choose what operating system you want to use in a pc with more than one OS (like Win7 and Ubuntu)
[14:43] <csgeek> any suggestions on how to fix this?
[14:43] <mikebeecham> furuno, so it might be better to just download to a Pen Drive
[14:43] <mikebeecham> I dont have blank CDs
[14:43] <jcrawford> hmm says there is a manual and auto mode both point to the same java-6-sun so it seems it is using sun :)
[14:43] <furuno> mikebeecham: using a pendrive is fine too (and actually faster)
[14:43] <atude> I need a rubiks cube application. which do I use?
[14:43] <atude> are tehr eany?
[14:43] <atude> ther e*
[14:43] <BluesKaj> jcrawford, place a copy of sun java in usr/bin. that's the normal dir for app executables
[14:43] <minimec> jcrawford: Is sun java installed? How did you install it? Via the Partner repository?
[14:44] <mikebeecham> furuno, will do that then....as an aside.  Is this something that is actually advised on Linux, or am I still looking at this from a Windows persepctive?
[14:45] <furuno> mikebeecham: actually, I do a lot of install using a pendrive
[14:45] <mikebeecham> will a 2Gb pen drive be sufficient?
[14:45] <furuno> mikebeecham: yes, you'll only need about 700 MB
[14:45] <meatbun> i am using 10.x ubuntu. cpu on flash video is high, even after i press pause. how to fix?
[14:46] <mikebeecham> ok...and furuno , back to my previous question.  Reinstalling...is this really an advised thing to do?
[14:46] <meatbun> my windows machine, upon clicking of pause, cpu drops to 10%.
[14:46] <mikebeecham> or am I still too windows-oriented?
[14:46] <furuno> mikebeecham: you want to reinstall Ubuntu?
[14:46] <abhijit> hello
[14:46] <mikebeecham> furuno, yessir...I reckon after 3 years I've collected too much rubbish on my hdd
[14:46] <mikebeecham> a clean reinstall seemed a good way to go
[14:46] <mikebeecham> wipe the HDD and start again
[14:46] <furuno> mikebeecham: it's completely OK
[14:47] <csgeek> nvm.. got it
[14:47] <roberto_> ubuntu - designed from the ground up with fault tolerance in mind
[14:47] <snoopt> hello
[14:47] <roberto_> that is, with the idea that you shouldbe fault tolerant
[14:47] <mikebeecham> furuno, well, lets hope it goes well...I've only installed linux once 3 years ago...and even then had help.  Someone told me recently to create a second partition for files....a / partition...correct?
[14:48] <ivers_> anyone knows what Firewall Throughput in munin displays ?
[14:48] <furuno> mikebeecham: nope, linux installation is *much* more easier these days
[14:48] <snoopt> a little problem, when i`m switching to tty1 i`ve got just a blinking cursor. Anyone knows how to fix it
[14:48] <furuno> mikebeecham: and you can always chat while you're installing :)
[14:48] <Mrokii> Hello. I have the problem that whenever I try to copy large files to a usb-stick, the copy-speed varies a lot and stalls sometimes inbetween. And it *especially* stalls, after the copy-process is over (0 seconds left). I mean, Nautilus' copy-process window stays open for a very long time.
[14:48] <mikebeecham> furuno, oh?  Can I?
[14:49] <furuno> mikebeecham: yes, because Ubuntu is a live cd
[14:49] <mikebeecham> oh mind you...I'll have irc on my windows machine...would you mind me asking lots of annoying questions whilst I go through the install process?
[14:49] <Bizzeh> hi, im looking at setting up an ubuntu server install as a semi-router/server install.. pretty much the only thing i want it to do at the moment is act as a DNS server, i want to pipe all office DNS quereies via the server so that i am able to filter out certain ones from being accessed in the office.. all the routing and ip assignment is done via an off the shelf router for now. does anyone have any sort of guide for setting this type of system up
[14:49] <_raven_> how to run ubuntu as openMOSIX-host?
[14:49] <furuno> Mrokii: well, it how it'll work, at the end, it's looks like Linux is "finalizing" the file
[14:49] <collabra> blue_anna: ... you there?
[14:49] <ibrahim-kasem> hi
[14:50] <furuno> mikebeecham: you can even use IRC from the ubuntu installation, just try it
[14:50] <romankrv> Hi. What can get login for irc.freenode
[14:50] <ibrahim-kasem> why there is no modem support for ubuntu :(
[14:50] <Vroomfondle> _raven_: I thought openMOSIX only worked on 2.4 kernels?
[14:50] <mikebeecham> oh, I didnt realise :D  great news furuno
[14:51] <collabra> !register | romankrv

[14:52] <romankrv> ok
[14:52] <mikebeecham1> furuno: I'm now on my windows machine (it sits next to my linux machine!!) So I'll chat in a bit....thanks for all your help anyway mate!
[14:52] <mikebeecham1> be back soon
[14:52] <acid> qual o canal ubunto em portugues?
[14:53] <Pici> !pt | acid
[14:53] <Mrokii> furuno:  So, it is *supposed* to work like that? If so, it doesn't make much sense to me. What could Linux "finalize", once the file is copied?
[14:53] <zachary> if i leave the computer for five mins it makes me log back in. how do i remove that?
[14:53] <zachary> any help would be greatly appreciated
[14:53] <furuno> Mrokii: I don't know the in-depth detail though... it just works like that...
[14:53] <furuno> zachary: System > Preference > Screensaver
[14:53] <ayekat> zachary: you will probably have to configure your screensaver settings
[14:54] <zachary> furuno, ty i will try this!
[14:54] <zachary> ayekat, ty i will try this!
[14:54] <ShapeShifter499> can someone help me...  Not really satisfying, but it seems as if I can't do anything about it :/
[14:55] <furuno> ShapeShifter499: see System > Preference > Sceensaver
[14:55] <furuno> Mrokii: just note that USB flash drive performance will degrade after time
[14:55] <CoreGate1> Hi *!
[14:55] <collabra> !hi
[14:56] <Mrokii> furuno:  It doesn't really matter which usb stick I connect.  How can I grow /dev/sda5 by the 40 gb of empty space I have?
[14:57] <collabra> sakekasi1994: gparted
[14:57] <ShapeShifter499> furuno, I've tried that but I can't seem to keep my comp from turning off its display
[14:57] <Sahr> Hey
[14:57] <acid> algum bras na sala?
[14:57] <collabra> !gparted
[14:57] <sakekasi1994> collabra I am using gparted
[14:57] <sakekasi1994> I still can't grow the partition by the free space
[14:57] <furuno> ShapeShifter499: How about System > Preference > Power Management
[14:58] <acid> alguem poderia me dar um help?
[14:58] <aeon-ltd> sakekasi1994: you can't do it while its mounted use the liveCD
[14:58] <Sahr> Got a wireless question. thanks to you guys I have managed to get ubuntu picking up wireless signals, HOWEVER when I try to connect to my wireless connection it wont work, it just keeps trying to connect and failing, even tho the signal is there and every minute or so it keeps making me reenter the password. This happens no matter what encryption I use, so what should I do?
[14:58] <sakekasi1994> aeon-ltd it's not mounted
[14:58] <ColbyLudwig> Does GRUB2 recognize HFS+ partitions?
[14:58] <acid> qual é a sala do ubuntu em portugues?
[14:58] <furuno> !pt | acid
[14:59] <aeon-ltd> sakekasi1994: contiguous space?
[14:59] <ShapeShifter499> furuno, Iol I just saw that...
[14:59] <ShapeShifter499> furuno, now to see if it works

[15:00] <sakekasi1994> collabra it's a wubi installation
[15:01] <ShapeShifter499> furuno, seems to be working thinks

[15:02] <sakekasi1994> sakekasi1994 I just use it to keep my files separate from my OS
[15:03] <collabra> sakekasi1994: why don't you use windows to do this...?
[15:03] <sakekasi1994> collabra windows won't let me either
[15:03] <KE1HA> May as well install Windows all those NTFS partitins.
[15:04] <collabra> sakekasi1994: yeah,... I can't help you to extend a ntfs partition using gparted,... I've never heard of it,... try using partition magic.
[15:04] <sakekasi1994> collabra ok can I get a link?
[15:04] <rileyp> how can I cllaim owner ship of symllink on a remote front end that list them like this
[15:05] <KE1HA> and it's all on one physical drive, so not much point in makig all the partitions in the first place.

[15:06] <sakekasi1994> thanks collabra
[15:06] <aeon-ltd> collabra: shameless advertising for piracy eh?
[15:06] <collabra> i'll not be shamed,... save it for the corporations.
[15:06] <sakekasi1994> collabra norton discontinued partitionmajic
[15:06] <KE1HA> sakekasi1994, fare enough, to each his own, but NTFS and EXT don't play well together.
[15:06] <collabra> :)
[15:07] <sakekasi1994> KE1HA i'm using a wubi installation
[15:07] <sakekasi1994> KE1HA also, I agree with you
[15:07] <ZykoticK9> collabra, respecting copyrights = respect for open source (open source is based on copyrights)
[15:08] <KE1HA> sakekasi1994, you'd be better off with a SAN or NAS soluiton.
[15:08] <sakekasi1994> KE1HA ok
[15:08] <collabra> ZykoticK9: which corporation owns open source?
[15:08] <wilhart> can u use kde4 effects with X screen
[15:08] <wilhart> multiscreen
[15:08] <kek> collabra: oracle owns it
[15:09] <nikitis> I need some help on setting up multiple ftp servers through one external IP Address.  When i change port 21 to a different port on the server, and port forward on my router, i can connect, but I never get directory listings, and a message that says I get an unroutable address.  Can someone please tell me what the hell is goin on here?
[15:09] <ZykoticK9> collabra, it's not a corporation.  GPL is a copyright document.  !ot for this channel.
[15:09] <KomiaPoika> hi
[15:09] <ivers_> use a ftp proxy, nikitis
[15:09] <KomiaPoika> is there a package for truecrypt in ubuntu?
[15:09] <collabra> again,... save your shame for those who deserve it...
[15:09] <nikitis> ivers_, how does that work?
[15:09] <erry> Hi, my network applet says device not managed

[15:10] <sakekasi1994> I forgot to resisze my extended partition first
[15:10] <ZykoticK9> erry, if you have set anything in /etc/network/interfaces you'll get that message
[15:10] <KE1HA> KomiaPoika, have a look at easycrypt
[15:11] <erry> ZykoticK9, i havbe

[15:11] <monitor> oi
[15:11] <Sahr> Got a wireless question. thanks to you guys I have managed to get ubuntu picking up wireless signals, HOWEVER when I try to connect to my wireless connection it wont work, it just keeps trying to connect and failing, even tho the signal is there and every minute or so it keeps making me reenter the password. This happens no matter what encryption I use, so what should I do?
[15:11] <ZykoticK9> erry, reverse what you did
[15:11] <erry> ZykoticK9, so i just remove everything?
[15:12] <ZykoticK9> erry, probably not "everything"
[15:12] <Sahr> Anyone?
[15:12] <ayekat> Sahr: does dmesg|tail say something like "disconnected by local choice; reason=3" ?
[15:12] <nikitis> ivers_, i don't think that is an option for me
[15:12] <ZykoticK9> erry, mine has 2 line --- line 1= auto lo --- and line 2 = iface lo inet loopback
[15:12] <Sahr> Let me have a look ayekat
[15:12] <monitor> online on brasil
[15:12] <Pici> !pt | monitor
[15:13] <erry> ZykoticK9, i put mine like that and restarted networking
[15:13] <erry> but it wont do
[15:13] <BluesKaj> Sahr, you have use the encryption you set the router up to use and if needed a user password
[15:13] <Sahr> Nope ayekat, want me to copy what it comes up with?
[15:13] <KE1HA> Sahr, what type of encryption are you using WEP / WAP ?  try turning it off and connecting first, then enable and try it again to see if it connects.
[15:13] <nikitis> I've search for days on how to run multiple ftp servers, and i got nothing, can someone help me out with this?
[15:13] <minimec> erry: You will have to logout the session and login again.
[15:13] <Sahr> KE1HA, I have tried all types of different encryption, even without enryption it does not work
[15:13] <ayekat> Sahr: Well, no, it's just that I also had some wireless problems
[15:13] <erry> minimec, but if i do that maybe internet will break forever
[15:13] <erry> I don't want to
[15:14] <erry> then i'll have to re-install again
[15:14] <erry> ><
[15:14] <erry> well i have to restart anyway
[15:14] <ivers_>  /whois ivers
[15:14] <ivers_> ops
[15:14] <erry> bb
[15:14] <KE1HA> Sahr, ok, try it without a password on the router.
[15:14] <Sahr> KE1HA done that already, no luck
[15:14] <Sahr> it keeps trying to connect and connect and failing, only difference is it does not ask me for a password
[15:15] <KomiaPoika> with ubuntu on dual screen, how can i have 2 different backgroud pictures on the laptop screen and on the external screen?
[15:15] <nikitis> anyone know how to change the control and data ports that vsftpd uses?
[15:15] <KE1HA> Sahr, pass then, not much more I can suggest then.
[15:15] <Sahr> Ok ke1ha mate
[15:15] <BluesKaj> Sahr, what kind of wifi , on a laptop or usb adapter or...?
[15:15] <Sahr> Its a odd problem, and I have no idea whats wrong with it
[15:15] <Sahr> using a Broadcom Driver on a dell Mini 10 Blues
[15:16] <ivers> lol Sahr
[15:16] <ivers> install firmware
[15:16] <ZykoticK9> KomiaPoika, do both screens act as a single large desktop?  or are then completely independent X windows?
[15:16] <Sahr> With wpa-psk encryption
[15:16] <Sonderblade> How do you check which files an installed package provides?
[15:16] <ivers> Sahr: have you installed firmware ?
[15:16] <Sahr> Yeah ivers, I installed all the drivers
[15:16] <KE1HA> I will be so glad with the kernel supports all these these broadcomm cards !
[15:16] <BluesKaj> Sahr, b ut what kind of connection to your dell mini , usb wifi or pci ?
[15:17] <Sahr> Wifi using WPA-PSK
[15:17] <erry> Ok it works
[15:17] <erry> but now my notification area disappeared
[15:17] <KE1HA> On mt dell, I had to update firmware for WPA-PSK.
[15:17] <erry> nvm its there
[15:17] <erry> sorry
[15:17] <erry> ><
[15:17] <collabra> oracle owns linux... lol.
[15:17] <ZykoticK9> !enter > erry
[15:18] <erry> sorry :(
[15:18] <ZykoticK9> !ot | collabra
[15:18] <Sahr> Hmmmmm
[15:18] <Sahr> I cant figure out what is wrong with it
[15:18] <collabra> Please,... ZykoticK9... I'm just finishing a conversation.
[15:19] <Complexe> Hi all
[15:19] <BluesKaj> Sahr, I'll ask one more time ...what kind of connection to your dell mini , usb wifi or pci ?
[15:19] <Sahr> WIFI blueskaj
[15:19] <Sahr> Said it 2 times mate
[15:19] <Complexe> i want to use a script mIRC, like other script with windows
[15:19]  * BluesKaj bangs his head on the dek
[15:20] <KE1HA> LOL
[15:20] <Sahr> Or do you meen something else BluesKaj?
[15:20] <Pici> Sahr: BluesKaj wants to know if you're using an internal adapter or something that plugs in your usb port.
[15:20] <Sahr> Ooohh
[15:20] <Sahr> Using a wireless card, so a internal adapter I would think?
[15:20] <Sahr> (Not really that good with this stuff, sorry)
[15:21] <erry> Btw, anybody got wireless to work on a toshiba t110?
[15:21] <KomiaPoika> ZykoticK9: are independants X display areas
[15:21] <erry> I have rtl8187se card and it causes kernel panics
[15:22] <erry> I posted a bug report about it which nobody seemed to pay attention to
[15:22] <KE1HA> erry, Not a T110, but on an ASUS-A6V my RT carrd is working wiht WPA
[15:22] <erry> KE1HA, rtl8187se?
[15:22] <minimec> KomiaPoika: So they have different size and you don't use compiz?
[15:22] <erry> KE1HA, it matters. rtl8187b which i have in another laptop works fine, but se won't.
[15:22] <KomiaPoika> what is compiz?
[15:23] <KomiaPoika> yes, they have different sizes
[15:23] <KE1HA> Im not sure which one it is specificalyl, but it's an 8-Series RT card I know htat
[15:23] <erry> KE1HA, well seems i got really unlucky with the specific model./
[15:23] <KE1HA> Ahh, ok
[15:23] <erry> Although it may be a combination of the card and something else on that netbook, n/i
[15:23] <minimec> KomiaPoika: the 3D Gimmick Desktop. What happens if you do <ctrl><alt>arrow right?
[15:24] <KomiaPoika> minimec: it changes virtual desktop
[15:24] <erry> If the prob was the card and i loaded it on another computer without that card, would it panic or just not load it cause the hardware isnt' there?
[15:24] <Sahr> Well guys, thanks for the help anyway
[15:24] <BluesKaj> Sahr, ok do lspci in the terminal and tell us what is listed as either mobile/ network devices, or pastebin the list p;s.
[15:24] <Sahr> BluesKaj, I gotta go in about 10 mins man
[15:24] <KE1HA> erry, did you looke at the UB-WiFI docs ?
[15:24] <Sahr> BluesKaj, Ok I will look tho
[15:24] <abhijit> !compiz | KomiaPoika
[15:24] <minimec> KomiaPoika: do you get a smoll window that indicates the change or a big transparent one?
[15:24] <erry> KE1HA, don't think so
[15:25] <KomiaPoika> also, i don't have any sound when i plug speakers
[15:25] <erry> KE1HA, it's not just that it doesn't work... It crashes the system
[15:25] <KomiaPoika> i use gnome
[15:25] <KE1HA> erry, it's for 804 / 9.10 but worth a shot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b

[15:27] <KomiaPoika> i have medibuntu
[15:27] <erry> ok
[15:27] <erry> thanks. i'll try it out.
[15:27] <erry> When i had googled, i didn't see that thread :p
[15:27] <foobarbecue> Hi, any idea why my gnome-volume control is using 100mb of memory?
[15:27] <abhijit> !enter | erry
[15:27] <minimec> KomiaPoika: COUld you just start with one screen first, before we plug the 2nd. That would help us.
[15:28] <BluesKaj> KomiaPoika, youll find the required repos for libdvdcss2 etc there
[15:28] <KomiaPoika> i have
[15:28] <Sahr> AND ALSO  I have something else that someone told me to enter, dunno if this helps
[15:28] <Sahr> http://pastebin.com/hdtCMghE
[15:28] <rizzuh_laptop> I had a weird problem where no mouse click or key press would do anything, but the mouse would move fine, so I had to drop power hard to the computer and restart. What could be causing it? Using Lucid with all supported updates.
[15:29] <mikebeecham> hi there...can anyone help me partition my hard disk for new Ubuntu install
[15:29] <mikebeecham> it's telling me that I have sda1 and sda5 (swap)
[15:29] <mikebeecham> is this all I need?
[15:30] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, what sort of install are you wanting to do ?
[15:30] <erry> um
[15:30] <erry> KE1HA, the binaries in that forum are for an older kernel..
[15:30] <erry> is it ok to get them anywya\/
[15:30] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: I'm wanting to format my hard drive and reinstall 10.04 onto it
[15:30] <KE1HA> erry, according to the WiFI docs, ur card is natively supported, so I dont dont know what the deal is there.
[15:31] <erry> KE1HA, it crashes the system if i load the driver.
[15:31] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, ok, so a complete installaiton, no other OS on th3e drive ?
[15:31] <BluesKaj> !broadcom | Sahr
[15:31] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: I originally put the swap partition on there because I was dual-booting...I'm no longer doing that
[15:31] <erry> KE1HA, perhaps if it didn't crash the system it would work
[15:31] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: only Ubuntu now
[15:31] <minimec> mikebeecham: KE1HA: I told him on #ubuntu+1, that he should consider a seperate /home partition for his data, and maybe an SWAP=RAM partition for suspend...
[15:31] <Sahr> BluesKaJ looking now mate
[15:31] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, I'd recommend using the option, to "Use The Entire Drive" is you dont want to Dual-Boot anymore.
[15:31] <jimmy51_> how can i output a diff between two folders, recursively?
[15:31] <jimmy51_> (i'm in the maintanence shell)
[15:32] <pZombie> This is the third time, on two different PCs i run into problems after installing ubuntu, it failing to boot of the right HDD after installing a boot sector on the correct HDD
[15:32] <geirha> jimmy51_: diff -ur dir1/ dir2/
[15:32] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: is minimec's advice of good use to me?  about a seperate /home partition for data?
[15:33] <the_german> pZombie: I had the same problem. Try reinstalling grub with a live DVD
[15:33] <erry> :(
[15:33] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, that's an option for Manually partitioning, yes, but it's more complicated.
[15:33] <collabra> mikebeecham: I would at least go with the SWAP=RAM
[15:33] <jimmy51_> geirha: thanks.
[15:33] <alkisg_> My laptop hard disk temperature is 91° C, should I be worried? (I did see some bad sectors...)
[15:33] <KomiaPoika> minimec: with only 1 screen, i can play a video, but with 2 monitors, the videos are black or grey
[15:33] <pZombie> Something is going seriously wrong with linux distros or ubuntu distros developement. How hard can it be to put a few bits on a sector for the boot loader to check if the partition is actually the right one?
[15:33] <mikebeecham> collabra: I already have a 3Gb swap on there
[15:33] <pZombie> honestly this is unexcusable
[15:33] <BluesKaj> pZombie, what is ?
[15:33] <minimec> KomiaPoika: So. With one screen, for you everything seems ok? Is that true?
[15:34] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, for a standard installation, you need 3 partitions, /boot /swap and /root  and that's it, using RAM for swap is not standard.
[15:34] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: so currently I have a 76Gb Ext3, and a 3Gb Swap...is this ok?
[15:34] <KomiaPoika> yes
[15:34] <KE1HA> Yes
[15:34] <erry> ugh
[15:34] <erry> now it wont read my usb
[15:34] <hv> how can I fix "locale" issues between different ubuntu and debian machines? some have $LANG=C some have $LANG=..._utf8.
[15:34] <andre_pl> is it possible to connect to a VPN only for one ssh connection and have the rest of my network traffic stay on my "normal" connection?
[15:34] <pZombie> installing ubuntu or other linux distros which install fine, and then the distros being too stupid to set grub up properly to boot from the right partition for WHATEVER reason
[15:34] <Sahr> Hmm BluesKaj I got a message when I entered sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl
[15:34] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: I only have two partitions...
[15:34] <mikebeecham> eek
[15:34] <pZombie> the reason of course is, that they try to boot of some other HDD/partition after the splash screen
[15:35] <Sahr> WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release.
[15:35] <minimec> KomiaPoika: ok. Do you use any driver of the ->system->administration->HArdware Dirver for your Graphics CArd?
[15:35] <Sahr> It said that 3 times in a row
[15:35] <collabra> mikebeecham: you don't need the /boot if you have the /root
[15:35] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, I dont knwo why your tryignt o set you partitions manually, yo dont knwo how to do it, however, like I said, you need three /boot /toot and /swap.
[15:35] <pZombie> this could be prevented so easy by installing some bitcode on a specific sector location the boot sequence looks for when in doubt
[15:35] <KomiaPoika> minimec: checking
[15:35] <erry> pZombie, if it's so easy do it yourself

[15:35] <KE1HA> sri /boot /root /swap
[15:35] <gnubie> mikebeecham; http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/  there is a rather long video that takes you through the partition options here. You need to scroll to find the partition video.
[15:35] <mikebeecham> confused KE1HA and collabra seems to be contradicting each other
[15:36] <KomiaPoika> minimec: no proprietary drivers are in use on this system
[15:36] <pZombie> erry - easy for those who are developing. i am not involved but allow me to theorize about it, yes?
[15:36] <collabra> mikebeecham: i think keisha is talking,... you need a /boot if you are encrypting your entire drive,... if you are not you do not need the /boot
[15:36] <KE1HA> mikebeecham, Im not, My Advise, is to Use the Install CD and Do a Full disk Install. If you choose to partition manuallt, I can't help you.
[15:36] <minimec> KomiaPoika: Ok. That's not so bad, as everything should be handled by the system.
[15:36] <the_german> Anyone using Kerberos with Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[15:36] <collabra> mikebeecham: /root will suffice
[15:36] <KomiaPoika> minimec: it's a macbook
[15:37] <mikebeecham> KE1HA: collabra thanks guys

[15:37] <collabra> mikebeecham: lol

[15:39] <pZombie> if i was to write software, i would first write my own OS
[15:39] <Alcohol52> Can any one tell me what is wrong with mac number 01:1E:90:D9:4C:5B? I cannot change the mac number of laptop to that same mac thoaugh it can be changed to other mac numbers?
[15:39] <KE1HA> pZombie, is there a quesiton in that somwhere ?
[15:39] <bazhang> pZombie, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:39] <erry> i only have problems with wireless, but i can't really compl--- crap, i got the 32-bit.
[15:40] <Pici> pZombie: This isn't a complaint channel, its a support channel.  If you'd like support, ask.  If you want to make a suggestion, try http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com
[15:40] <erry> um
[15:40] <erry> KE1HA, those binaries you linked me to are 32 bit and i have 64 bit
[15:40] <minimec> KomiaPoika: ok. now. PLug the 2nd monitor and go to ->system->preferences->monitors
[15:40] <pZombie> the question is, why does ubuntu install on a HDD and then try to boot from another?
[15:40] <KomiaPoika> minimec: i see a vague 1 line animation on 1st line of the big monitor when i try to play a video
[15:40] <KE1HA> erry, Sri mate, that's the only one I could find.
[15:40] <pZombie> and where do i fix this?
[15:40] <ZykoticK9> Alcohol52, i notice all my MAC addresses start 00, certainly not sure that's the issue ;)  Goog luck man.
[15:40] <KomiaPoika> minimec: im there
[15:40] <minimec> KomiaPoika: We are not yet there...
[15:40] <stefan33> I have been hitting Google looking for help, has anyone seen issues with Switch User on 32-bit installs?  I have two machines with troubles there....
[15:41] <the_german> pZombie: Maybe it is configured wrong in your BIOS??!!
[15:41] <harmandeep> Guys, what is the difference b/w RELOAD and RESTART options with SERVICE command ,     is RELOAD equivalent to   process SIGNAL 1 = SIGHUP ( which re-reads daemon config file , instead of restarting it completely ) ???
[15:41] <erry> isn't there a way to force 32 bit
[15:41] <minimec> KomiaPoika: Do you see both monitors in there now?
[15:41] <erry> theres a command but i cant remember
[15:41] <KomiaPoika> yes$
[15:41] <stefan33> (please bear with me, I am relatively rusty at IRC)
[15:41] <pZombie> the_german then why does windows have no problems with it?
[15:41] <KE1HA> pZombie, well it all depends on how you installed, how did you perform the Ubuntu Installation ?
[15:41] <KomiaPoika> with correct resolution
[15:41] <KE1HA> pZombie, retorical question, we can't answer Windows Questions
[15:42] <the_german> pZombie: I am not aware of your whole configuration that is why we are all just speculating here...
[15:42] <minimec> KomiaPoika: NOw configure both monitors. First do 'detect monitors'. You can also choose the position with drag&drop on a monitor
[15:42] <pZombie> ke1ha - i installed from my USB hdd made bootable to act like a CDrom, using unetbootin. Ubuntu 10.4 server, detected only one of my HDDs , i just used the whole HDD. It installed all, then when booting, i got only the splash screen, and it just got stuck.
[15:42] <KomiaPoika> minimec: i already done that
[15:42] <stefan33> :harmandeep - I think you have it right, reload re-reads the configs (if supported), restart kills the process and starts a new one.
[15:42] <erry> KE1HA, it says r8180 wasnt found
[15:43] <harmandeep> thanks stefan33
[15:43] <stefan33> :harmandeep  Side note....dhcpd does not support reload, must restart.
[15:43] <hv> I am connecting to another machine, looking at a unicode file there, and some characters do not show well (multiple characters for certain unicode ones). What could be the problem?
[15:43] <stefan33> (there is a long discussion of this in the man pages)
[15:43] <KE1HA> pZombie, what chipset is you machine running ?
[15:43] <minimec> KomiaPoika: Ok. SO you have both monitors in front of you and on one of them there is a panel, but not on the other?
[15:43] <KE1HA> erry, sri, I can't help any further on that one.
[15:44] <erry> wish someone could
[15:44] <pZombie> it s a p6x58d-e asus motherboard with a x58 chipset
[15:44] <BluesKaj> Sahr, what's the output if you do , sudo apt-get install broadcom-wl
[15:44] <pZombie> i7-930 cpu
[15:44] <ZykoticK9> stefan33, if you want to re-load dhcp use "sudo dhclient eth0" for example
[15:44] <harmandeep> does it means that dhcpd doesn't represent RELOAD option in SERVICE command ?
[15:44] <shleda> hi, can I print ubuntu logo  on T-shirt for free?
[15:44] <stefan33> Testing
[15:44] <erry> KE1HA, maybe if i update the kernel?
[15:44] <minimec> KomiaPoika: What software are you using?
[15:44] <KomiaPoika> minimec: yes, the small monitor has the panel, the big monitor has only windows
[15:45] <KE1HA> pZombie, abd this is a native install, not a Virtual VM install ?
[15:45] <Alcohol52> ZykoticK9: I have a desktop with THAT MAC number and connected to internal lan that uses mac filtering for internet connection. I want to use laptop to connect to that network since my desktop is down.
[15:45] <stefan33> :harmandeep - I believe it will balk if given a reload command....if it doesn't...I know it will not re-read the config file (from experience).
[15:45] <KomiaPoika> minimec: i can't play video with any player, each of that works when only 1 monitor is active
[15:45] <Sahr> BluesKaj, E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[15:45] <Sahr> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[15:45] <ZykoticK9> Alcohol52, sorry i gave my 2 cents worth - but that's all I got ;)  Good luck man.
[15:45] <erry> .
[15:45] <pZombie> ke1ha - this is a native 10.4 lucid lynx server install. all installed fine. after the reboot, splash appeared, then stuck
[15:45] <harmandeep> ok
[15:45] <KE1HA> erry, pass mate, have no idea why it's not working.
[15:45] <erry> did my laptop just turn itself on?
[15:46] <stefan33> :harmandeep - I don't remember the specifics, but basically the developers talked about the issues with concurrency or some such and suggested if it really bothered someone, they could try and come up with a solution...they had much bigger fish to fry.  I would love to help them out...but I too am lacking time (and skill) and not that bothered by it.
[15:46] <pZombie> ke1ha - installed on a single 250gb HDD using default partitioning it suggested. It failed to detect my second 250gb hdd. it failed to detect my 80gb SSD
[15:46] <KE1HA> pZombie, well there's many bugs on the Black Screen After Boot issue, I would only be guessing if I said I know the specific problem.
[15:46] <shleda> hi, can I print ubuntu logo on T-shirt for free?
[15:46] <stefan33> :harmandeep - the restart takes all of a couple seconds, and dhcpd isn't exactly under "constant" use.
[15:46] <BluesKaj> Sahr,sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[15:46] <minimec> KomiaPoika: This was a laptop right? What monitor is configured as main monitor?
[15:46] <stefan33> (ie, little harm in restart vs. reload)
[15:47] <KE1HA> pZombie, SSD technology is not fully supported in Linux.
[15:47] <harmandeep> ok
[15:47] <Sahr> BluesKaj, Gonna have to pastebin this one, its asking me Y/N, give me a sec
[15:47] <Pici> shleda: See http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy , particularly the part about Permitted use.  There is a 'contact us' link on that page for more information.
[15:47] <Alcohol52> ZykoticK9: I may be mistaken I will recheck the mac tomorrow. Thanks any way
[15:48] <xektrum> I have / before /home, /home is almost full, and / have at leas 30 GB free, so I want to reduce / and expand /home, is it too dangerous to do this?
[15:48] <shleda> Pici: thanks, i will look at it
[15:48] <Sahr> BluesKaj, http://pastebin.com/zdgF08Vj
[15:48] <Sahr> Do I press Yes Or No
[15:48] <KomiaPoika> minimec: the laptop's monitor has the taskbars
[15:48] <erry> Can you remind me which is the file that says
[15:48] <BluesKaj> Sahr, it means you have either a pckage manager or another terminal open which is attempting to execute a command
[15:48] <erry> Search lan
[15:48] <erry> domain whatever
[15:48] <KE1HA> pZombie, and for a Native server install, what splash are you referring too, as the service install does not install X11
[15:48] <erry> i really cant remember
[15:48] <Sahr> Ahh right
[15:48] <FloodBot4> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:49] <Sahr> BluesKaj, So I should press yes?
[15:49] <pZombie> ke1ha - the initial ubuntu splash screen, with the dots below flashing
[15:49] <erry> Please
[15:49] <Pici> erry: Please stop pressing enter between every two words, you've been told this a number of times already.  I will be forced to remove you if you continue.
[15:49] <erry> -_-
[15:49] <Sahr> BluesKaj, This is what I get
[15:49] <Sahr> Kill process 1930 ? (y/N) y
[15:49] <Sahr> dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[15:49] <erry> can you please tell me what the file is?
[15:49] <KE1HA> pZombie, that's my point, the server installation doesn't ahve a "splash screen"
[15:49] <stefan33> erry:  Your are looking for /etc/resolv.conf I believe
[15:49] <erry> thanks
[15:49] <stefan33> (your -> you)
[15:50] <BluesKaj> Sahr, close the other terminal or the pkg manager , whichever is open
[15:50] <pZombie> ke1ha - cannot be. it was the server i installed... it has a splash.
[15:50] <minimec> KomiaPoika: Your problem seems to be hardware related. Check glxinfo and glxgears (sudo apt-get install mesa-utils).
[15:50] <Sahr> Ok
[15:50] <KE1HA> pZombie, ok.
[15:50] <pZombie> ke1ha - maybe it was because i installed the ubuntu desktop as package as well?
[15:50] <stefan33> erry:  'man resolv.conf' should give you lots of info on the behavior and get you well on your way.
[15:50] <monokrome> Hey, Ubuntu only allows me to choose 6 channel and 8 channel audio... I just want 2 channels :/
[15:50] <pZombie> ke1ha - you installed the raw server only?
[15:50] <erry> stefan33, i know how it works i just forgot its name
[15:50] <KE1HA> pZombie, I would say, yes, that is most likely the problem.
[15:51] <stefan33> erry:  No worries, just making sure you can get all the info you might need :)
[15:51] <minimec> KomiaPoika: CAn you give me your exact type of MacBook?
[15:51] <KE1HA> pZombie, I ahve installe "many" servers and have never seen a splach screen.
[15:51] <KE1HA> oosp splash screen.
[15:51] <stefan33> Sorry to ask again, but anyone on here seen issues with Switch User?
[15:51] <Sahr> BluesKaj, I did it then reentered the command, this is what I got
[15:51] <Sahr> http://pastebin.com/eihfc36Z
[15:51] <stefan33> (or better yet know of solutions for Switch User making X have problems, garbling the screen?)
[15:52] <pZombie> i picked quite a few packages from the standard. i have no clue with what servers are actually good for. all i care about is getting xen ready and several OSes on top, just to see how this is supposed to work
[15:52] <KE1HA> pZombie, Ensure you ISO says ubuntu-server-arch.ISO, where ach is either i386 or amd64
[15:52] <KomiaPoika> minimec: a white macbook from 2007
[15:53] <Roasted> bazhang, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[15:53] <KomiaPoika> minimec: what should i do with glxinfo and glxgears
[15:53] <erry> my lan is messed up ;/
[15:53] <BluesKaj> Sahr, did you run sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source , already?
[15:53] <minimec> KomiaPoika: They are almost all white... ;) Is that the small tiny version?
[15:53] <stefan33> erry:  HOw big is your LAN?
[15:53] <Roasted> Dear Bazhang, I would greatly appreciate it if you could teach me the secret of life when it comes to successfully getting the Atheros AR5001 wireless card working in Ubuntu 10.04.
[15:53] <erry> stefan33, a few computers
[15:53] <tik> !resetpanels
[15:53] <erry> but i just got a new isp and router
[15:54] <minimec> KomiaPoika: Check if you have direct rendering with both screens activated.
[15:54] <KE1HA> pZombie, well I would say that "I have noe clue" is the problem. Download the proper Server ISO, and istall that pse.
[15:54] <stefan33> erry:  All running Linux?
[15:54] <erry> and now they won't resolve eachother
[15:54] <erry> stefan33, yeah
[15:54] <erry> and i have to get their ips each time
[15:54] <erry> that's really frusterating
[15:54] <stefan33> OK...problem lies in the router, not Linux most likely.
[15:54] <mikebeecham> I'm currently reformatting my HDD and using the partitioner within the Ubuntu install to carry out the work resizing partitions.  it's now been at 50% for about 10 minutes now...is that about right?
[15:54] <erry> stefan33, i know -_-
[15:54] <mikebeecham> or should I be worrying?
[15:54] <stefan33> What is your DNS set as on the boxes?  Is it the router or your ISP?
[15:54] <Sahr> Hmm, BluesKaj is it saying I have yes, and everything there is installed
[15:54] <pZombie> ke1ha - http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.1-server-amd64.iso this is what i downloaded
[15:54] <KomiaPoika> minimec: i have 3300 fps on both screens
[15:54] <pZombie> ke1ha - this is not the server?
[15:55] <archana>          E: Malformed line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse) how to remove this?
[15:55] <airtonix> if i compile a glade-sharp project using monodevelop and specify that it create both linux and win32 binaries... am i to expect that the win32 binaries would run on windowsXP with at least .Net3.5?
[15:55] <Sahr> bcmwl-kernel-source is already the newest version.
[15:55] <Sahr> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[15:55] <erry> Hey guys
[15:55] <tik> hi
[15:55] <erry> about my wireless problem, if i modprobe the same driver in another laptop it doesn't crash
[15:55] <erry> But maybe that's b/c it doesn't ahve the hardware for it?
[15:55] <minimec> KomiaPoika: That's ok.
[15:55] <KomiaPoika> minimec: when i play a flash video on a website, it works
[15:56] <KomiaPoika> minimec: it just doesnt work when i try to play a local video file
[15:56] <_F-117> how would i transfer a ralink setup from BT to ubuntu
[15:56] <KE1HA> pZombie, that is a server ISO yes.
[15:56] <minimec> KomiaPoika: and your sound problem is only related to local media too, or also for flash video?
[15:57] <BluesKaj> Sahr, open your package manager and enable the canonical parteners and other sources in the "sources" option.
[15:57] <KomiaPoika> minimec: i have sound from the laptop itself but when i plug then jack for speakers, the sound is off even tho the speakers are on and with volume
[15:57] <pZombie> ke1ha then it is the server i installed.
[15:57] <Sahr> BluesKaj, Ok, doing that now, give me 5 minutes
[15:57] <erry> I guess there's no hope :/
[15:57] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469799 Roasted check post #4
[15:57] <KE1HA> pZombie, I have no Idea what you installed, all I know is that is a Server ISO.
[15:58] <_F-117> erry: way 2 stay positive
[15:58] <KE1HA> pZombie, and server installations, Do Not have X11 installed.
[15:58] <Sahr> BluesKaj,  I am really not sure what you meen mate
[15:58] <pZombie> ke1ha - i wasn t looking for your confirmation. just telling you what i installed
[15:59] <stefan33> erry:  Do you want to try and sort out your local name resolution, or worry about that another time
[15:59] <erry> _F-117, i dunno ;/
[15:59] <stefan33> ?
[15:59] <KE1HA> pZombie, what your saying you did, and what your seeing, does not add up.
[15:59] <erry> stefan33, no that's fine I'd rather i sorted out my wireless
[15:59] <stefan33> Fair enough, best of luck.
[15:59] <erry> I'll try getting 9.04
[15:59] <erry> but it's not supported anymore is it
[15:59] <minimec> KomiaPoika: For the speaker. Go to the volume-applet on the panel and click on it. ->sound preferences 'OUtput'-TAB -> 'Connector'=Analog Headphones. Try that.
[16:00] <stefan33> I believe 9.04 updates are still available for a few more months (but don't go to court with that)
[16:00] <pZombie> ke1ha - well, the server installation got me to a menu allowing me to pick several desktop environments as packages, which i did. i picked ubuntu desktop. or are you saying that it is impossible to install x11 on top of a server?
[16:00] <erry> :(
[16:00] <matrixa1> is it possible to do a "compact" backup in ubuntu? I mean that it will only remember a list of currently installed programs and fetch them
[16:00] <KE1HA> pZombie, See, now your changing what you said you did.
[16:00] <erry> is it possible to download like a kernel update in this computer and move it in another?
[16:00] <erry> With all the dependancies?
[16:01] <pZombie> ke1ha - no, i said the same before.
[16:01] <matrixa1> or even better, can I make a list of currently installed programs, and export it to another computer's synaptic?
[16:01] <_F-117> anyone good with vbox settings
[16:01] <KE1HA> pZombie, and yes, the service installation CD does allow for Desktop installation, however, the base server installation does nto include a desktop by default.
[16:01] <BluesKaj> Sahr, look in synaptic , settings/repositories  then enable all repositories in ubuntu and other sources , except for the cdrom one
[16:01] <Professor_G> hi all
[16:01] <pZombie> ke1ha - i know that.. and that is what i already told you
[16:02] <KE1HA> pZombie, Im sorry I can't help you further, you did this yesterday as well.
[16:02] <mikebeecham> minimec: I'm re-partitioning as we speak....its been sat on 50% for about 20 mins now...would that be right?
[16:02] <harmandeep> guys, when i want ssh server to re-read config file , what command should be run .... 1) service ssh reload   or     2) service sshd reload    ???  1 or 2
[16:02] <Professor_G> wi-fi signal is intermitant unless i'm in the same room as wireless box
[16:02] <Sahr> BluesKaj, Done it, now what should I try?
[16:02] <minimec> mikebeecham: The whole installation or the formatting process?
[16:02] <pZombie> ke1ha - no need to be sorry. i am not paying you for this..
[16:02] <erry> i guess i should just forget about it
[16:03] <Seveas-train> Professor_G, buy a better wireless box or remove the lead wallpaper :)
[16:03] <Sahr> And BluesKaj Not leaving, just back in 2 minutes mate
[16:03] <guampa> harmandeep: whatever the script name in /etc/init.d is
[16:03] <Sahr> Back*
[16:03] <mikebeecham> minimec: formatting process
[16:03] <BluesKaj> Sahr, in synaptic look for the broadcom-wl and install it
[16:04] <mikebeecham> it's on "resizing partition"
[16:04] <mikebeecham> and has been on 50% for a while
[16:04] <bazhang> mikebeecham, what is the partition size
[16:04] <harmandeep> but what is normally ssh server script name is ???
[16:04] <Sahr> BluesKaj, Doing it now
[16:04] <minimec> mikebeecham: No. that is far to long. How much partitions did you choose, did you reformat the entire disk?
[16:04] <BluesKaj> Sahr, specifically look for BCM4312
[16:05] <Professor_G> Seveas-train,  its fine on another laptop just not this one
[16:05] <meek_> does the universe component also include non-free software?
[16:05] <KE1HA> harmandeep, sudo service sshd restart / stop / start etc
[16:05] <andre_pl> Is there a way to get a better error message from ubuntu about VPN Failures? Even /var/log/messages just tells me "Connection Terminated" I have no idea why
[16:05] <andre_pl> i h ave tried tons of combinations of settings.
[16:05] <mikebeecham> minimec: i chose the automatic option - so it's resizing the main partition of 73Gb, and the swap of 3Gb
[16:06] <mikebeecham> it did nothing for a while, then shot to 50% and has sat there ever since
[16:06] <minimec> mikebeecham: OK. Rezising takes time!!! Don't touch it. ;)
[16:06] <mikebeecham> ok :D
[16:06] <mikebeecham> since you smile as you say it...I'll trust you :D
[16:07] <minimec> mikebeecham: It may happen that it suddenly jumps to 90%
[16:07] <mikebeecham> minimec: I'll be waiting for that to happen :D
[16:07] <Cesc> It would be interesting in those chats .... a way to mark a question (ok question mark ? is fine, maybe another) so the IRC client would interpret which questions have been asked and instead of have to read all the text all the time and scroll up and down.. be able to in a separate window (a window catching questions) be able to detect those question and be able to give to the people formulating the question your opinion.
