[20:18] <raj-k> Does anyone know how to enable Flash on Chromium (not chrome)?
[20:18] <ilea> how can i check using linux how big is the procesor and how mutch ram i have o a computer?
[20:18] <raj-k> I can't find the plugins folder for chromium
[20:19] <raj-k> I've checked /usr/bin/lib/chromium; I put it in that directory as well as a plugins directory I created myself; neiter worked. Also tried running with chromium --enable-plugins option
[20:19] <raj-k> the .so, that is^
[20:19] <ohsix> Dueli: not to be rude but i'm very tired and at the tail end of a 4 hour blitz helping people, i phrased my answers/suggestions to be easily google'able so i wouldn't have to fill in the blanks :[
[20:19] <bonjoyee> rocktop: sudo lshw
[20:19] <ohsix> ilea: free -m and cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:19] <rocktop> bonjoyee : -bash: lshw: command not found
[20:19] <ohsix> rocktop: you can look at dmesg too
[20:20] <Jibadeeha> is there an easy way in ubuntu to encrypt an individual directory
[20:20] <bonjoyee> rocktop: sudo apt-get install lshw
[20:20] <rocktop> ohsix: how  ?
[20:20] <ilea> ohsix i dont understand please write a little difrent
[20:20] <Dueli> Thanks for all the help, ohsix.
[20:20] <ilea> like i have to enter in terminal?
[20:20] <gurra72> hello
[20:20] <kize> hola!!!!
[20:20] <Dueli> I'll try to google my way to victory, even though the chance is small
[20:20] <raj-k> ilea: yes
[20:21] <snake_> How to configure apache2 for use on port 8080, and binded to my external ip.
[20:21] <snake_> ?
[20:21] <ohsix> ilea: you can also open System Monitor from System -> Administration
[20:21] <ohsix> ilea: sorry, i was breaking my own rules telling you to use the console :D
[20:21] <gurra72> just testing irssi
[20:21] <snake_> hmmm apache2!
[20:22] <qwebirc93887> I am trying to enable ACPI in Ubuntu but it's not working. I've tried sudo modprobe acpi (and acpid), installed acpi and acpid, added acpi and acpid to /etc/modules, added "acpi=force" to grub... What else can I do? I am desesperated.
[20:22] <dtcrshr> snake_, #httpd
[20:22] <bernz> snake_: you mean to set apache2 to listen on 8080, or to forward outside traffic from 80 to 8080?
[20:22] <ilea> what rules if someone haves to help another its normal to say what to do
[20:22] <ilea> i now only 1 rule and that is that there are no rules
[20:22] <ilea> :P
[20:23] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: what makes you think you had to do anything?
[20:23] <andai> How do i install the virtualbox extension pack?
[20:24] <ohsix> ilea: well i had an argument with someone earlier about not telling people to use stuff that is not part of the desktop first, the most direct and correct answer under that rule is System Monitor, not anything having to be done on a terminal
[20:24] <nrabett> snake_ locate the apace2 config files - I think they are in /etc/. I assume you could also install Webmin in order to get a GUI
[20:24] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: because it's an old motherboard.
[20:24] <nrabett> Apart from that, you should search Google for a tutorial. One would have to write a small essay here
[20:25] <Pumpkin-> if you always have to give desktop answers before command line answers, I'm going to answer like 0 questions :)
[20:25] <jiltdil> what is firestarter and what is ufw?
[20:25] <LarsN> ilea: https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct/1.0.1  stick within the guidelines there and you'll do well.
[20:25] <stefg> !firestarter
[20:25] <bonjoyee> jiltdil: both are front ends to the linux firewall "iptables"
[20:26] <rusk> Can anybody help me to fix broken gnome fonts?
[20:26] <jiltdil> bonjoyee:which is better as use?
[20:26] <rusk> it looks like this: http://itmages.ru/image/preview/161241/df5fe4a4
[20:26] <stefg> jiltdil: so firestarter is a gui frontend for ufw, which in turn is a simplified cli interface to iptables
[20:26] <Trae> I've got an old box that's 9.04 is there a way I can upgrade it to 10.10 via command line?  or even just from 9.04->9.10 ?
[20:26] <bonjoyee> jiltdil: i prefer ufw..
[20:26] <jiltdil> stefg:bonjoyee:thanx
[20:27] <Trae> I don't have X on this box in question.
[20:27] <rusk> fonts, used in gnome-settings after some time are broken...
[20:27] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: what made you ask that question in a agressive way?
[20:27] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: i meant who gave you such advice, or is it rote, old motherboard force acpi?
[20:27] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: i think the acpi epoch was in 2005, it's older than that?
[20:28] <ohsix> may have been 2002
[20:28] <jiltdil> i also have a question at sometime when icheck events in firestarter something like scanning on my port 80 happens and under serious there is 1 or 2 or more written what is that and how to prevent that ?
[20:28] <stefg> Trae: for updating purposes there's still some repos .... that involves fiddling with the sources.list. I wouldn't recommend it. you'll have to climb the adder through every release, and that will cost you more bandwidth than a simply new install.
[20:29] <andai> how do i change this: andai@andai-System-Product-Name:~$
[20:29] <jmd> Where is the kernel in ubuntu?
[20:29] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: Ubuntu forums and a lot of other websites where I found other users having same problem than I:  when I sudo shutdown -h now or sudo poweroff the computer will not poweroff, it hangs and shows "system halted" message.
[20:29] <qwebirc93887> Any tip?
[20:29] <stefg> jmd:  on top of the hardware  :-)
[20:29] <Trae> stefg: would one simply grab say the sources.list for 9.10 and apt-get dist-upgrade   then 10.04  etc...?
[20:29] <bonjoyee> andai: change it in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts and then reboot
[20:30] <andai> ty
[20:30] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: first, check if acpi is even being used and for what reason, look at the output of "dmesg" run in a terminal, if it's not obvious to you please post it to paste.ubuntu.com
[20:30] <Logan_> !kernel | jmd
[20:30] <nyuszika7h> Hi, should I install the 32-bit or the 64-bit Ubuntu for an x64 system?
[20:30] <nyuszika7h> s/for/to
[20:30] <rww> nyuszika7h: 64-bit works fine.
[20:31] <red2kic> nyuszika7h: Roll a dice.
[20:31] <andai> bonjoyee: i edited /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts was updated automatically!
[20:31]  * nyuszika7h rolls a dice
[20:31] <stefg> Trae: no... the problem is taht you have to point your sources.list in jaunty to another URL... i think soemthing like old-releases.ubuntu.com. But seriously: forget it. save your /home and reinstall.... quicker and cleaner.t
[20:31]  * neckoox sneezes

[20:32] <warlock_> hey guys, using natty since a day ago, can't find any equivalent of gnome-panel-monitors in the current interface. should I just fire up gnome-panel ? or is there another way to monitor stuff now ?
[20:32] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: yes, I did check dmesg | grep acpi and shows "[    0.000000] ACPI: BIOS age (1997) fails cutoff (2000), acpi=force is required to enable ACPI" so I added acpi=force "[    0.000000] ACPI: acpi=force override"
[20:32] <nyuszika7h> FloodBot?
[20:32] <rww> warlock_: natty discussion and support are in #ubuntu+1
[20:32] <Trae> stefg: heh it's got a trac setup on there I really don't want to mess with.
[20:32] <rww> nyuszika7h: what about them?
[20:32] <warlock_> rww: thanks
[20:32] <ohsix> warlock_: you can use the "Classic Desktop" session if you want, and do everything like you used to
[20:32] <Trae> but thanks mate
[20:32] <Logan_> !floodbot | nyuszika7h
[20:32] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: and does it find a DSDT?
[20:32] <ayecee> nyuszika7h: how much memory?
[20:33] <nyuszika7h> ayecee: 3 GB
[20:33] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: but lsmod lsmod does not show anything acpi related
[20:33] <qwebirc93887> lsmod sorry
[20:33] <stefg> Trae: who tells you that it won't break anyway during upgrades?
[20:33] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: that's not what i asked
[20:33] <Trae> stefg: don't say such words!
[20:33] <Logan_> !away > THEBRODOZER|WORK
[20:33] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: there isn't here either (lsmod | grep acpi)
[20:33] <Trae> :)
[20:33] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: I was not replying to what you asked. What do you mean with DSDT?
[20:34] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: how do you check if acpi is working?
[20:35] <Dueli> ohsix: could you just help me with booting ubuntu into single user mode
[20:35] <Dueli> I can't find it
[20:35] <sukima> How do you set your preffered wm on an ubuntu server via command line?
[20:35] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: well, you ask it to do stuff for you, but checking if it found a DSDT is a good start, as it wont do anything without one (dmesg | grep DSDT)
[20:35] <erUSUL> Dueli: in the grub menu chooes recovery mode
[20:35] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: ps aux |  grep acpi root       511  0.0  0.1   1792   608 ?        Ss   20:30   0:00 acpid -c /etc/acpi/events -s /var/run/acpid.socket

[20:35] <bonjoyee> !find libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
[20:35] <ohsix> Dueli: i've got to pack up the laptop and get out of here D:
[20:35] <Dueli> ok
[20:35] <Trae> stefg: thanks mate, I do appreciate the time and effort to help.
[20:35] <erUSUL> sukima: wm? window manager? a server does not have gui by default
[20:36] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: dmesg | grep DSDT empty output..
[20:36] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: not it, sorry if i was rude earlier but i've got to go; and it sounds like theres no ACPI
[20:36] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: you'll have to try the "platform" shutdown mode
[20:36] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: one sec i'll find you the appropriate config file
[20:36] <Dueli> erUSUL, it brings me to busybox, initramfs just like in normal mode
[20:36] <qwebirc93887> ohsix: It is enabled in the BIOS
[20:36] <qwebirc93887> hm
[20:36] <qwebirc93887> ok
[20:37] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: maybe i'm mistaken and very very early acpi impls didn't have a DSDT, but i doubt it
[20:37] <sukima> erUSUL: I know I install one for playing around
[20:37] <sukima> I start it with startx
[20:37] <stefg> Trae: i bet your box will break in one way or the other anyway... but keep in mind that you can't directly upgrade... you have to go step-by-step 9.04>9.10>10.04 (should stay there) and possibly > 10.10
[20:37] <ohsix> qwebirc93887: the file has documentationa nd the settings in it, /etc/default/acpi-support gl, and bye
[20:37] <erUSUL> Dueli: what error do you get befors landing in initramfs promt?
[20:38] <Trae> stefg: yeah, make sense, I've been around a wee bit, I was just wondering if there was a way to upgrade via command line from one distro to the next without having to have X installed
[20:38] <erUSUL> sukima: and what do you want to change exactly? what wm is launched with startx? do you have more than one installed?
[20:39] <dashx> hey gang.
[20:39] <sukima> erUSUL: yup, fluxbox and icewm
[20:40] <Dueli> "mount: mounting /dev on /root/dev failed : no such file or directory" "mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: no such file or directory" "mounting /proc on root/proc failed: no such file or directory", erUSUL.
[20:40] <sukima> I can switch back and forth. Just want a way to pick which is default
[20:40] <dashx> I have a relatively simple (probably) question, has to do with grub. Anyone here wanna take a stab?
[20:40] <erUSUL> sukima: startx uses ~/.xinitrc as config file
[20:40] <Dueli> target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init
[20:40] <Dueli> No inir found. Try passing init= bootarg
[20:41] <Dueli> init*
[20:41] <erUSUL> Dueli: if you pass "init=/bin/bash" it boots? did you succeed in passing a fsck to the partition ?
[20:41] <dashx> After installing a second OS on a partition I had to reinstall grub, however the new install placed grub in /boot/boot/grub instead of /boot/grub. So whenever I have a kernel update, or what not, it writes to the /boot/grub/grub.cfg and then I have to manually copy the file to /boot/boot/grub, anyone have a long term solution for this?
[20:42] <sin8h> + folks
[20:42] <Dueli> erUSUL, "init=/bin/bash" does nothing
[20:43] <erUSUL> Dueli: you have to edit the kernel manu entry to add it to kernel options
[20:44] <erUSUL> Dueli: in the grub menu
[20:44] <Dueli> And how do I do that?
[20:44] <erUSUL> Dueli: press "e" in the grub menu that enters edit mode in grub menu iirc
[20:45] <Dueli> erUSUL, what should I do then?
[20:45] <erUSUL> Dueli: replace "quiet splash" with "init=/bin/bash"
[20:45] <stefg> dashx: what version of ubuntu / grub?
[20:46] <Dueli> erUSUL, there isn't "quiet splash"
[20:46] <BGM_> hello!
[20:46] <erUSUL> Dueli: well in the recovery mode entry there is not.
[20:47] <Dueli> oh, okay
[20:47] <BGM_> I tried looking this up on the net but to no avail: how do I launch emacs and not xemacs?
[20:47]  * stefg thinks the Floodbots are jutifying their names... flooding the channel with +o's and -j's
[20:47] <tj2>  /part
[20:48] <erUSUL> BGM_: emacs -nw
[20:48] <BGM_> orly?
[20:48] <BGM_> thx erUSUL
[20:49] <BGM_> oh wonderful! :)
[20:49] <erUSUL> BGM_: also xemacs is not the same as the gui of gnu emacs. is a "different" editor ( a fork from a years ago )
[20:50] <BGM_> erUSUL: umm, ok. I just don't like xemacs because I want to do all my work in my shell, which is why I like macs.
[20:51] <BGM_> but now I will use -nw!
[20:51] <erUSUL> !info emacs23-nox
[20:52] <jmd> BGM_, chsh /usr/bin/emacs
[20:53] <sukima> Does anyone know where looking glass 3d went? http://javadesktop.org/lg3d/debian doesn't work anymore
[20:53] <BGM_> jmd: umm, it says that "user" DNE
[20:53] <leapy0yo> can you guys help me with this: rename -n `s/^*2Pac*$/2Pac*$/` *.mp3
[20:53] <Welshy-Rob> Hello. i have tried to open a folder in my home dir and the file browser just closes, i have tried to cd into it but apparently there is no such file, but it shows up when i ls -a ? can anyone help?
[20:53] <jmd> What does "plymouth main process" mean?
[20:53] <sin8h> #me heloo
[20:53] <Dueli> erUSUL, with init=/bin/bash, booting brings me to root@(none):/#
[20:54] <erUSUL> Dueli: so it booted. « ls -l /sbin/init »
[20:54] <erUSUL> Dueli: what does it say?
[20:55] <erUSUL> leapy0yo: do you know what * means in a regex? it is not like in a shelll glob
[20:55] <jmd> BGM_ try "chsh -s /usr/bin/emacs <yourname>"
[20:56]  * sin8h pink bunny
[20:56] <erUSUL> Dueli: ?
[20:56] <BGM_> jmd: You may not change the shell for 'myname'.
[20:57] <BGM_> hu?
[20:57] <Dueli> erUSUL, -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 108164 Jan 22 04:04 /sbin/init
[20:57] <BGM_> also jmd, what are you trying to get me to do?
[20:57] <erUSUL> BGM_: do not think that using emcas as login shell is a good idea
[20:57] <erUSUL> Dueli: then why it complains it can find it? /me confused
[20:57] <Dueli> I'm slow because I have to manage with a US keyboard layout but my keyboard is finnish
[20:57] <BGM_> erUSUL: umm, k
[20:58] <Dueli> erUSUL, I have no idea
[20:58] <erUSUL> Dueli: i duno if you answered before... did you managed to pass the fsck to the partition from the livecd? or mount it?
[20:58] <Pumpkin-> valid login shells have to go in /etc/shells
[20:58] <BGM_> hey guys I'm writing an OS and it has three commands: EXIT, VERBOSE ON, and VERBOSE OFF lol!
[20:59] <BGM_> well so far. It's an assignment :3
[20:59] <Dueli> what command, erUSUL?
[20:59] <Dueli> in terminal, right?
[20:59] <erUSUL> Dueli: you have to do it from the livecd...
[21:00] <Dueli> yeah, I know
[21:00] <Dueli> How?
[21:01] <erUSUL> Dueli: « e2fsck -p /dev/sdxx » where xx is replaced with the actual letter number pair
[21:01] <delinquentme> so if when i restart my computer ( ubuntu 10.04 ) .. and it doesnt make it GRUB .. is this most likely a MBR error?
[21:01] <leapy0yo> erusul, how do you do wild card in regular expression?
[21:01] <delinquentme> make it _TO_ GRUB
[21:01] <hou5ton> Any notifications I get (like email, friend logged on, etc.) are coming up off the screen of my laptop. You can see the very bottom of them, and I can't figure out how to make them show up in the actual screen where I can see them.
[21:02] <meera> hi hi, whats better linux on xp or xp on linux?
[21:02] <delinquentme> meera, install XP then install linux
[21:02] <delinquentme> meera, ubuntu *
[21:02] <bonjoyee> meera: you mean virtualisation?
[21:02] <meera> think so
[21:02] <erUSUL> leapy0yo: i think you want ".*" . is any char and * is 0 or more
[21:02] <LinuxFetus> What are the default fonts and settings for natty?
[21:02] <LinuxFetus> *font settings.
[21:02] <jmd> What are the default runlevels in ubuntu?
[21:03] <erUSUL> !runlevels
[21:03] <erUSUL> jmd: but it is 2 for legacy things
[21:03] <Dueli> erUSUL, it somehow works again...
[21:04] <erUSUL> Dueli: congrats then :)
[21:04] <delinquentme> So yeah i rebooted again .. and without making it to GRUB .. it hands on the second screen .. which would be the one that displays my mobo brand ( abit ) and the options to press TAB for POST screen .. and DEL to enter SETUP
[21:04] <Dueli> i reboot in normal mode, it suggested fixing some problems, rebooted again and now I'm at the regular desktop
[21:04] <abstrakt> leapy0yo, i sent you a msg, i guess you didn't get it?
[21:04] <Dueli> So, I guess there's nothing to worry about anymore, erUSUL?
[21:05] <erUSUL> Dueli: dunno; you will find out if something is missing
[21:05] <Dueli> okay
[21:05] <Dueli> that's when I'll come back, if necessary
[21:05] <erUSUL> Dueli: good luck
[21:05] <Dueli> Thanks for all your help, erUSUL.
[21:05] <erUSUL> Dueli: no problem
[21:06] <erUSUL> delinquentme: sata cable got loose the bios dos not find the hard disk to boot? hard to say
[21:06] <jmd> Why is there no /etc/inittab file?
[21:06] <erUSUL> !upstart
[21:07] <erUSUL> jmd: ubuntu does not use  Sys V init system anymore
[21:07] <delinquentme> erUSUL, so i can get into BIOS no problem .. i just threw in a bootable disc into the tray ..and disabled all boot options other than the CD .. and im still getting hanging
[21:08] <erUSUL> delinquentme: well if you do not get past the bios -> is a bios problem
[21:08] <delinquentme> erUSUL, well i can get INTO the bios .. and change things .. as well as save them and reboot
[21:09] <delinquentme> it doesnt get to grub so i think thats where ill start?
[21:10] <erUSUL> delinquentme: the bios does not complain about "no boot disk found"? or something like that? do you see the disk detected in the bios screen ?
[21:10]  * delinquentme ** rebooting **
[21:11] <jmd> So how do I change the runlevel?
[21:11] <Jibadeeha> is it possible to encrypt a folder on an external hard drive using ecryptfs
[21:11] <erUSUL> jmd: why do you want to change runlevel? all of them are the same
[21:12] <erUSUL> jmd: except 0,1 an 6 of course
[21:12] <terry> jmd: Ubuntu now uses upstart
[21:12] <erUSUL> !xy
[21:12] <terry> !upstart : jmd
[21:12] <terry> !upstart | jmd
[21:13] <delinquentme> WELLLLL there we go ...detecting IDE drives .... annnnd nothing

Whenever I log in to ubuntu the whole interface freezes, the mouse still moves but nothing happens, sometimes the panels and desltop load but are unresponsive, sometimes not. Everything works fine if I log in under safe mode. All users are affected. I've removed and reinstalled xorg and removed all the programs I can think of which were set to run at login but no effect. Any idea where to look next?
[21:16] <bercik_> Are there any numbers of how many Linux users there are worldwide?
[21:17] <brightspark> ScaroDJ: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal if I'm not mistaken
[21:17] <erUSUL> bercik_: no source is completly accurate
[21:17] <PwrSurge> i'm getting a distribution upgrade for some reason
[21:17] <PwrSurge> is 11.04 out?
[21:17] <r1tz1> bercik_: http://counter.li.org/
[21:17] <erUSUL> PwrSurge: no
[21:17] <bercik_> thanks
[21:18] <delinquentme> erUSUL, yeap all connections look good

[21:18] <LinuxFetus> erUSUL, Both panels, I mean.
[21:18] <fosstux> Hi! I today bought a Logitech Harmony One Remote control and I'd like to set it up via linux. I installed concordance and congruity, but when starting congruity I get an error: ERROR: Precisely one filename argument is required
[21:18] <skullboy> can someone tell me how to make the ubuntu 11.04 gui look like 10.10
[21:18] <erUSUL> delinquentme: the disk died? can you check it as secondary in another machine?. boot into a livecd
[21:18] <terry> jmd: ubuntu no longer uses /etc/inittab
[21:18] <erUSUL> LinuxFetus: :/
[21:18] <terry> jmd: Eactly what is it you are wanting to do?
[21:19] <erUSUL> LinuxFetus: alt + f2 run  « gnome-panel »
[21:19] <terry> jmd: And what url are you refering to?
[21:19] <botcity> !11.04 | skullboy
[21:19] <LinuxFetus> erUSUL, That didn't work; it behaves as if they're both there.  Like if I click where something should be, its options show up.
[21:20] <ScaroDj> brightspark: yes, it is, thank you very much
[21:20] <erUSUL> LinuxFetus: most weird
[21:20] <LinuxFetus> erUSUL, I'll try loggin out brb.
[21:20] <delinquentme> erUSUL, yeah i can but i gotta take a bus ride for that ... so yeah i get em hooked up .. and whats the procedure after that? 1. see if they're readable 2. run some disk checking util? 3. see if they're bootable?
[21:20] <skullboy> can someone tell me how to make the ubuntu 11.04 gui look like 10.10 the chan is not supporting me
[21:20] <brightspark> ScaroDj: You're welcome.  Glad to help.
[21:21] <erUSUL> delinquentme: yes. you can not use a liveCD
[21:21] <erUSUL> ?
[21:21] <jmd> terry, I'm wanting to boot my ubuntu system.
[21:21] <terry> jmd: Is this a fresh install?
[21:21] <delinquentme> erUSUL, yeah i put in a live CD .. and told the bios to *ONLY* use the cd drive as bootable .. and it hangs before that
[21:21] <erUSUL> jmd: it is not booting normally?
[21:21] <LinuxFetus> erUSUL, Got it working.  THanks.
[21:21] <mihaita99> hello; my HDD used to heat up incredibly while running Ubuntu 10; they told me that was a bug; did they solve that bug in newer versions?
[21:21] <erUSUL> delinquentme: weird.
[21:21] <jmd> No it's not booting normally.
[21:21] <erUSUL> LinuxFetus: no problem
[21:22] <terry> jmd: What do you see on the screen?
[21:22] <erUSUL> jmd: what is the error/behavior you get?
[21:22] <jmd> and no its not a fresh install, but a fresh upgrade.
[21:22] <terry> jmd: from______?  to________?
[21:22] <bonjoyee> mihaita99: only you can answer that for yourself...
[21:23] <bercik_> Guys, when i use Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition liveCD i cannot easly connect to any WiFI network. Simply no network is detected. Will it work automaticaly when I stall the system to my HDD?
[21:23] <terry> jmd: Has the upgrade process been interrupted?
[21:23] <jmd> terry, I have no idea.  For weeks I had been pestered with a menu saying "updates available" so this morning I clicked on it and let it upgrade.  Now it doesn't work.
[21:23] <bilal> can any body tell me the name of any vedio to audio converter??????????

[21:23] <datzilla> Hi, I have a problem where I can't ssh into my non-local box from one local pc and not the other
[21:23] <mihaita99> bonjoyee: I am now on windows and I was waiting for the new version, I thought you new

[21:24] <erUSUL> Nick_Meister: alt + f2 run « nautilus  »
[21:24] <datzilla> er.. and now I can...
[21:24] <terry> jmd: So when you trun the computer on,  tell us what happens?  Does it get past post?  How far...?
[21:24] <Nick_Meister> erUSUL, its running
[21:25] <bercik_> nit-wit: should be supported. Realtek built in Toshiba NB500
[21:25] <nit-wit> bercik_, check the card then go to google or come back here, if it isn't working now it may be a broadcom neding a hack
[21:25] <jmd> terry, I get the grub menu.
[21:26] <terry> jmd: Do you have a choice of kernels to load?
[21:26] <terry> jmd: Which one do you choose?
[21:26] <jmd> No.  Just one kernel.
[21:27] <terry> jmd: Ok, what happens when you try to boot that kernel?
[21:27] <jmd> Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-23-generic-pae
[21:27] <terry> jmd: Ok, what happens when you try to boot linux-<IP_ADDRESS>?
[21:27] <jmd> It all seems to boot ok.  But the login screen has lost all its users, and the mouse doesn't work and has no login box.
[21:28] <ibrahim> hi, sound has vanished from my laptop and nothing was muted
[21:28] <jayant> how can i update my system from terminal ?
[21:29] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?
[21:29] <fosstux> Hi! I today bought a Logitech Harmony One Remote control and I'd like to set it up via linux. I installed concordance and congruity, but when starting congruity I get an error: ERROR: Precisely one filename argument is required
[21:29] <jmd> I just have the Ubuntu logo,  the computer name (and the date in the bottom right hand corner)
[21:29] <fosstux> What am I doing wrong?
[21:29] <brightspark> ibrahim: have you recently run any programs that fiddle with sound settings?
[21:29] <nit-wit> bercik_, I believe this is your card Realtek RTL8188CE and here is a link regarding it.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1604101  the more information the better as I see it.;)
[21:30] <brightspark> ibrahim: as in, do you have an idea of the cause or are we just trying to address symptoms?
[21:30] <terry> jmd: Ctrl-Alt-F6
[21:31] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?
[21:31] <bercik_> nit-wit: thank You. I would like to be able to repay
[21:31] <terry> jmd: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade
[21:32] <ibrahim> brightspark , this was after updating
[21:32] <jmd> terry, And how do I get a shell in order to do that?
[21:33] <botcity> fosstux:  is it a command line program ? have you tried the man pages
[21:33] <terry> jmd: Ctrl-Alt-F6
[21:33] <jmd> and then?
[21:33] <terry> jmd: Ctrl-Alt-F6  (Hold Ctrl and Alt keys while hitting F6)
[21:33] <jmd> No shell appears
[21:34] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?

[21:34] <terry> jmd: Ctrl-Alt-F5  (Hold Ctrl and Alt keys while hitting F5)
[21:34] <Guest38131> yo
[21:34] <brightspark> ibrahim: did you change from 10.04 to 10.10 or similar?  or was it just an update of software packages?
[21:34] <ibrahim> brightspark , this is not the first time the sound vanish , every time i do update it vanishes uptill now two times
[21:34] <Guest38131> somebody polish?
[21:34] <ibrahim> brightspark , this is not the first time the sound vanish , every time i do update it vanishes uptill now two times
[21:34] <jmd> terry, No. that doesn't work either.
[21:35] <terry> jmd: Was it a distribution upgrade that failed?
[21:35] <ibrahim> brightspark_ no, software package
[21:35] <Starminn> !polish | Guest38131
[21:35] <jmd> I don't think so.
[21:35] <administrator> juh
[21:36] <Guest90185> hò
[21:36] <terry> jmd: What version of Ubuntu did you have installed before all this happened?
[21:36] <Guest90185> ciao
[21:36] <root__> hi
[21:36] <jmd> I really forget.
[21:37] <terry> jmd: Was it 9.04 ?  Do you still have the CD?
[21:37] <djazz> hi, im having trouble installing 10.04.2... it works just great from the liveCD, but after install some error messages shows and I only see the desktop bg :/
[21:37] <makaveli0129> anyone know how to get netflix working under ubuntu without using virtualbox?
[21:37] <cognac-gamma> djazz: drivers ok?
[21:38] <Starminn> djazz: What are the messages? (If they're long, use http://paste.ubuntu.com )
[21:38] <terry> jmd: I'm afraid you are goint to have to start over.  (ReInstall Ubuntu).   I would suggest getting a copy of 10.04 and installing that version.
[21:38] <Axlin> makaveli0129: you're out of luck on that one, unfortunately
[21:38] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?
[21:38] <io_error> makaveli0129: Not seen anyone do that successfully. Your best bet is to complain to Netflix.
[21:38] <jmd> terry, I was afraid you were going to say that.
[21:38] <djazz> dont have the errors nor the machine here atm
[21:38] <nit-wit> makaveli0129, no netflix in open source other then virtual
[21:38] <nit-wit> virtual ms
[21:38] <djazz> something like command 'terminal' was not found
[21:38] <terry> jmd: Well, there you go. You don't have to be afraid any more, I said it.  ;)
[21:38] <makaveli0129> axlin: thanks that what i thought i tried googling but no luck :-( guess that sucks now i have to boot into windows
[21:38] <fosstux> botcity: well - congruity is a pygtk tool as a frontend for concordance...
[21:39] <brightspark> ibrahim: try alsamixer and see if one of the levels is really low
[21:39] <fosstux> the error comes from concordance.
[21:39] <quuxman> this is interesting: `sudo apt-get install upstart-job sysvinit` ... "upstart : Conflicts: sysvinit but 2.88dsf-13.1 is to be installed"
[21:39] <jmd> It's a shame that ubuntu is getting more like windows every day.
[21:39] <djazz> it works from live boot but not from hdd? :/
[21:39] <terry> jmd: How is that?
[21:39] <quuxman> showpkg shows upstart-job depends on sysvinit but no specific version
[21:39] <Starminn> jmd: I disagree. More like Mac.
[21:40] <io_error> I switched to KDE.
[21:40] <jmd> Reboot, Reinstall ...
[21:40] <Starminn> jmd: But that's off-topic.
[21:40] <Tuplad> how do I download an extra language for ubuntu gnome ? I can't get Dutch (nl_NL or nl_BE) installed
[21:40] <dragonkeeper> is it possible to make any selected window semi-transparent ?
[21:40] <Starminn> jmd: What have you had to reboot for? Other than kernel updates, nothing I'd say.
[21:40] <io_error> jmd: I missed your original issue
[21:40] <quuxman> what this means is I can't install mysql-server without removig sysvinit, which I can only do if I type "Yes, do as I say" which makes me nervous
[21:41] <neckoox_> sorry i got disconnected ... so : I installed manually a deb package ( sudo dpkg --install myprogram )  , but an old version already existed of that program on ly computer . the deb installed the myprogram without errors ... but when i launch it from command line , i'm still on the old version . any idea ?
[21:41] <gekko_> i've got a serious problem with my pc: i turn it on, then i choose ubuntu from grub menu and after a few seconds, it abruptly shuts down. but if i stay in the grub menu, it doesnt shutdown :\
[21:41] <terry> jmd: My ubuntu system has been running for years. The original install was 6.06
[21:41] <gekko_> same with windows (i've got dual boot)
[21:41] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?
[21:42] <waynerr> terry, my fresh ubuntu 10.10 just crashed out of no reason ( that i can find yet ), the same system ran windows day in and out :p
[21:42] <kruk> hi, how to disable the ubuntu read - only?
[21:43] <Starminn> kruk: Where is the file located?
[21:43] <ibrahim> brightspark nothing is low
[21:44] <Starminn> kruk: If it's outside of /home/YourUser then it's because you don't have write permissions. You have to be root (i.e. use sudo) to manipulate those files, then.
[21:44] <Starminn> !permissions | kruk
[21:45] <fosstux> botcity: As I checked here, my remote is not supported: http://phildev.net/concordance/supported_models.shtml
[21:45] <neckoox_> Hi guys ! i have a problem here ...
[21:45] <neckoox_> I installed manually a deb package ( sudo dpkg --install myprogram )  , but an old version already existed of that program on ly computer . the deb installed the myprogram without errors ... but when i launch it from command line , i'm still on the old version . any idea ?
[21:45] <io_error> neckoox_: I suggest you remove both versions, and then reinstall the version you want
[21:46] <dragonkeeper> how do you make any selected window semi-transparent ?
 : i did ! but , didn't seem to work . the old version was installed from the rep . the second from a downladed deb
[21:46] <Tuplad> how do I download an extra language for ubuntu gnome ? I can't get Dutch (nl_NL or nl_BE) installed
[21:47] <terry> waynerr: You probably hava a hardware issue.
[21:48] <root> hi
[21:48] <JernejL> when was 2.6.35-28-server kernel for ubuntu released?
[21:48] <kruk> What file? I am a beginner.
[21:49] <terry> waynerr: If you are trying to suggest that MS Windows has a more stable system, well, all I can say is, you've got your work cut out for you.
[21:49] <Starminn> kruk: What do you mean? I was just asking what file was "read-only"
[21:49] <waynerr> terry, i run debian/centos servers since years and no microsoft product comes near the stability but when it comes to desktops ...
[21:50] <xiamx> Problem using sudo -u cherokee /usr/bin/python -v [...]manage.py runfcgi proto.  Returns manage.py': [Errno 13] Permission denied.. can anyone help?
[21:50] <maco> JernejL: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/linux  there's a 28.49 and a 28.50, but theyre both linked on here
[21:50] <mgolisch> xiamx: manage.py is not executable?
[21:50] <mgolisch> oh you run it with python sorry
[21:51] <mgolisch> probably not the problem then
[21:51] <JernejL> is 2.6.35-28-server upgrade able to be applied at runtime?
[21:51] <kruk> X does not load
[21:51] <JernejL> rebootless patches?
[21:51] <xiamx> mgolisch, manage.py has -rwxr-xr-x
[21:51] <kruk> Ubuntu Studio 8.04
[21:51] <maco> JernejL: no, kernel upgrades require a reboot to take effect, so if you have uptime worries, read the changelog and see if the changes even apply to you
[21:51] <mgolisch> xiamx: is that user the owner? id asume it actualy need r to read the python code
[21:52] <xiamx> mgolisch, cherokee is the webserver, the owner is my nickname
[21:52] <terry> waynerr: It is the same with desktops.
[21:52] <maco> JernejL: for example https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/2.6.35-28.50 shows it's mostly changes to EeePC support with a graphics driver change and one change to Xen. so if you're on a non-Xen server, you don't actually need the upgrade and so don't need to reboot
[21:52] <JernejL> it is giving me high performance timing problems
[21:52] <souheil> hi
[21:53] <JernejL> is there a way to check times whenever server was booted up?
[21:53] <kruk> loads only the initial and validating partition
[21:53] <xiamx> it's really frustrating.. idk why even i set the file premission to 777 , it gives the same error anyway
[21:53] <maco> JernejL: the"uptime" command
[21:54] <Starminn> terry: Although because there is a lot of user interaction and more applications, there is greater potential for something to go wrong in server vs. desktop (Murphy's Law)
[21:54] <JernejL> no
[21:54] <JernejL> i need previous times when server was booted up
[21:54] <Starminn> terry: But still more stable than Windows OS, yes.
[21:54] <maco> JernejL: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/2.6.35-28.49 for this one, there's a few security bugs which may be relevant to you
[21:54] <maco> JernejL: oooh hmm
[21:55] <ibrahim> brightspark _ hey sorry it i disconnected it was an error , so nothing's low
[21:55] <_Sebastian> Hi guys, someone here who is familiar about smbus and intel 82801dbm?
[21:55] <mgolisch> xiamx: it might not have access to the directory or something
[21:55] <JernejL> so i want to know when this kernel was put up on the server
[21:55] <maco> JernejL: i dont think so
[21:55] <teage> how do i run a command automatic on every reboot?
[21:56] <_Sebastian> teage: try /etc/rc.local
[21:56] <xiamx> mgolisch, directory is readable to the world
[21:57] <JernejL> so there's no boot-up times?
[21:57] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?
[21:58] <JernejL> is it possible to easily downgrade the kernel easily?
[21:58] <teage> _Sebastian, would that be /etc/rc.local and then the command i wish to execute?
[21:59] <_Sebastian> teage: take a look in /etc/rc.local and paste your commands inside.
[22:00] <blundakat_> Hello, I am having issues making a bios flash cd. I attempt to make an iso of the IMG file but it tells me Size of boot image is 2884 sectors -> genisoimage: Error - boot image 'F1B.IMG' has not an allowable size. any ideas? why would the floppy boot image be 4 sectors too big?

[22:02] <skomorokh> Any idea how to install firefox 3.6 at the same time as the firefox 4 from the firefox-stable ppa? I would just put the tarball in /opt but unfortunately there is no binary tarball for 64bit arch on account of moz being weird
[22:03] <soultekkie> i usually found my only windows machine when i selected places>network, but after samba was installed the windows machine is no longer visible but i can still access it trough smb://ip.of.the.machine
[22:03] <soultekkie> any way to make it auto show?
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: the daily ppa installs firefox 4 as a seperate app, don't run upgrade though or it will make your 3.5 to the daily build too
[22:03] <bonjoyee> !info java
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> !java

[22:04] <souheil> hi
[22:04] <Jon--> Is it a bad idea to mix package updating through apt-get, aptitude and/or synaptic package manager, or will they each know which packages the other(s) have installed?
[22:04] <j_ayen_green> what's a good cli ftp package that will let me easily create ftp logins pointed to a particular directory?
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: remove the ppa after you install so your upgrades don't get pulled down
[22:05] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: I want to upgrade it when new versions are released. That is exactly the problem---firefox-4.0 becomes firefox. Which would be fine, I just apt-get install firefox-3.6 ... except firefox-3.6 is actually some weird alias for firefox-4.0 instead of an actual package.
[22:05] <th0r> Jon--: they all use the same database, so you can use them all without worry
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> j_ayen_green: ftp as a command in terminal is default installed
[22:05] <Jon--> th0r, Thanks. Saw some forum posts from 2005 that said that mixing was a bad idea. I infer from this that once it WAS a bad thing to do?
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: the daily will give you 2 binaries so you can run either
[22:05] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: I use firefox 4 as my primary browser and want updates for it. I'm just looking for a 64 bit ff3 package.
[22:06] <th0r> Jon--: to my knowledge there has never been any issue with using them all on the same machine, but you can only use one at a time since they all access the same database
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: as far as i know, the ppa has both arches
[22:06] <nicola> ciao a tutti
[22:07] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: Yes, the packages are in 64bit. But they're all called firefox so I can't install both at the same time.
[22:08] <souheil> juste une question comment voir les partiton de ton disque dur apartir du bat4r2 in virtual box
[22:08] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: The arch comment was regarding Mozilla only offering binary tarballs in 32bit.
[22:08] <gedO> hey, whene ubuntu 11.04 will be reliced?
[22:08] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: Otheriwse I'd just untar it in /opt.
[22:08] <gedO> hey, whene ubuntu 11.04 will be relised?

[22:08] <j_ayen_green> ActionParsnip, I've been doing dev on ubuntu for a year now, but still feel like a noob. I've used ftp cli forever for transport, but never for admin...it will let me set up users?
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: the daily build has 64bit builds and will give you a firefox-4.0 which will run version 4, firefox will run 3.6
[22:08] <neckoox_> souheil : it's an english irc here . you might find help on the french one
[22:09] <souheil> where
[22:09] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: Ya, but those are daily builds.   I found it
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: thats al I can advise
[22:09] <th0r> !fr
[22:09] <neckoox_> souheil : i don't know , never been there !

[22:13] <usuario> -''''''''''''''''
[22:13] <Eyes> Anyone here willing to help me out with my bcm4312?
[22:13] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: Daily builds or compiling from scratch? Wonderful options.
[22:14] <erUSUL> Eyes: what do you need help with?
[22:14] <erUSUL> !find b43
[22:14] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx   Eyes
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: well the compiled debs aren't to your taste so what else can you do.
[22:14] <erUSUL> Eyes: sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[22:14] <erUSUL> Eyes: and reboot
[22:15] <skomorokh> ActionParsnip: Both mozilla and ubuntu are so silly about this... Usually I could just extract the binary or install two packages and use /etc/alternatives but mozilla killed the first one and the ubuntu packagers the second.
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> skomorokh: its one of the disadvantages of packaged systems
[22:15] <gianni_>  /load .xchat2/budus.so
[22:15] <Jon--> skomorokh, Use chrome. ;)
[22:15] <tbruff13> I need help how do i use the Ubuntu Music Store
[22:16] <skomorokh> Jon--: To debug my firefox extension?
[22:16] <THEBRODOZER|WORK> Logan_ , my problem is my stupid laptop was hibernating after 10 minutes
[22:16] <Jon--> Yes. Of course.
[22:16] <THEBRODOZER|WORK> lol
[22:16] <THEBRODOZER|WORK> I fixed it, so I shouldn't have any problems
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: skomorokh: +1 for chrome 9well chromium daily ;))
[22:16] <Eyes> erUSUL: yeah its not as simple as that, already installed, did a purge to be safe my card was misdetected as non lpphy. reinstalled b43-fwcutter, b43-lpphy, modprobe reports modules are loaded, no entries in iwconfig or ifconfig
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> or arora :D
[22:16] <Jon--> ActionParsnip, Is chromium-daily more recent than google-chrome-unstable?
[22:17] <Jon--> I guess it must as google's package is not updated daily. Quite often still.
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: its a daily build, compiled by a bot once a day. It has lots of bleeding edge features which are being considered for the stable. fun times
[22:17] <Jon--> Interesting
[22:17] <gianni__>  /load .xchat2/budus.so
[22:17] <Jon--> google-chrome-unstable is up to 12.0.712.0 dev
[22:17] <erUSUL> Eyes: sudo modprobe -r b43 && sudo modprobe b43 then do « dmesg | tail -n25 » paste that in pastebin
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[22:18] <tbruff13> Can someone help me use the Ubuntu Music Store
[22:18] <neverblue> i just installed Proftpd on Ubuntu, running from inetd, rather than stand alone, how do I restart the server ?
[22:18] <Jon--> ActionParsnip, No thanks. ;)
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: 12.0.724.0 (80289)
[22:18] <Eyes> erUSUL: one moment please
[22:18] <rood> what does port forwarding mean?
[22:18] <Jon--> Oh dear
[22:18] <gianni__>  /load .xchat2/budus.so
[22:18] <erUSUL> neverblue: well if it is managed by inietd you can not restart it as it is only running when there is a connection
[22:18] <Jon--> You're .012 sub-sub versions ahead of me
[22:18] <Jon--> I'm so behind :O
[22:19] <neverblue> erUSUL: so when I edit the config, save, the changes should be applied on my next connection attempt
[22:19] <rood> like, if someone tells me to "forward port 5900"  what are they telling me to do?
[22:19] <hachre> neverblue: all you can do is kill the current clients
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: sure but mine gets updated on a literally daily basis :D
[22:19] <hachre> neverblue: yes
[22:19] <Jon--> ActionParsnip, But yours doesn't have Google code that is only in Google chrome ;)
[22:19] <erUSUL> neverblue: i expect so
[22:19] <gianni__>  /load .xchat2/budus.so
[22:19] <neverblue> hmmm
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> rood: it tells your router to allow connections on your WAN interface and be pushed through to the internal network as you setup. Without it the connection is simply dropped
[22:19] <Jon--> Wait
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: what's that?
[22:20] <Jon--> I may be wrong about that
[22:20] <neverblue> weird, I get a connect/closed immediately
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> Jon--: what's google code?
[22:20] <Jon--> Google Chrome might contain no code that isn't in Chromium. Someone care to clarify?
[22:20] <tbruff13> Ok I installed Rhythmbox so that I could use The ubuntu music store but I do not know how to access it can someone please help
[22:20] <Jon--> I've heard mixed reports
[22:20] <hachre> Jon--: Chrome contains code that is not in Chromium
[22:20] <red2kic> Google Chrome is based on Chromium, no?
[22:20] <chipmenk> why does openoffice spreadsheet go grey then white then grey and take 5 min to open 42k file?
[22:21] <Jon--> hachre, Which code? Is it script rendering, PDF rendering, etc?
[22:21] <hachre> Jon--: The integrated flash for example, or the PDF viewer are only in Chrome but not Chromium
[22:21] <Jon--> Nailed it. ;)
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> red2kic: the bug reports in chromium get used and a snapshot made to make chrome (as well as them adding more tracking stuff if that stuff bothers you)
[22:22] <Eyes> erUSUL: reloading the module seems to have done it, why does it need to be reloaded after boot though
[22:22] <erUSUL> Eyes: no idea
[22:22] <tbruff13> Ok I installed Rhythmbox so that I could use The ubuntu music store but I do not know how to access it can someone please help does anyone know how to help me
[22:22] <ActionParsnip> chipmenk: thats compiz showing the app is hanging
[22:22] <Jon--> Was Chroimum around before Google Chrome?
[22:22] <red2kic> ActionParsnip: OMG! :P
[22:22] <Malina> wow, that new natty doe snothing but crahs,
[22:22] <Jon--> Chromium*
[22:22] <chipmenk> I've had larger files load faster in lotus 123
[22:23] <chipmenk> on floppies
[22:23] <hachre> Jon--: Chromium is basically the open source basis for Chrome
[22:23] <Malina> if I skip install files during install, at elats it wont throw errors however compiz loves ot just fail a lot
[22:23] <erUSUL> Malina: beta software is beta news at 11 :)
[22:23] <Malina> ye true
[22:23] <neverblue> erUSUL: i want any user that logins to have read/write access into their ~, upon connection. Do you know the syntax to toss into the .conf ?
[22:23] <erUSUL> Malina: ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[22:23] <Jon--> hachre, Separate developers then?
[22:23] <Malina> but fact was, if it's beta, it should be quit einstallablke, I couldn't install any natty flavour for ages
[22:23] <jdeslaur> anyone using squid with single sign on?
[22:23] <erUSUL> neverblue: no sorry.
[22:23] <hachre> Jon--: No, but separate licenses
[22:23] <neverblue> np
[22:24] <Jon--> I see
[22:24] <Malina> erUSUL, Thx and sorry
[22:24] <neverblue> looking in the Ubuntu Guie
[22:24] <neverblue> Guide*
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> Malina: remember to MD5 test the ISO you download (probably explains missing files), but support is in #ubuntu+1
[22:24] <maco> Jon--: i think the difference is in who builds the final product. official builds being Chrome, and unofficial-to-google ones being chromium
[22:24] <hachre> Jon--: Chromium is free, Chrome is not
[22:24] <Jon--> hachre, Did Google start the Chromium project? This is the only thing I'm unclear on.
[22:24] <maco> Jon--: yes
[22:24] <Jon--> Chrome is free, just not FOSS
[22:24] <hachre> Jon--: Yes
[22:24] <Jon--> I understand now
[22:24] <Jon--> Thanks
[22:24] <erUSUL> Malina: no problem :)
[22:24] <Eyes> erUSUL: after trying to connect: wlan0: direct probe to AP [routers MAC] timed out (3 tries)
[22:24] <hachre> Jon--: It's free as in free beer but not as in freedom ;)
[22:24] <hachre> Jon--: Chrome that is
[22:25] <speedxcore> can you use ubuntu one cloud service, with other dists, like debian and mint?
[22:25] <Jon--> hachre, I understand what you meant, I just don't like it when someone goes "not open source is equal to not free". That's not really true ;).
[22:25]  * Jon-- hopes Richard Stallman isn't here
[22:25] <hachre> Jon--: True, but I didn't say those two things in the same sentence ;)
[22:26] <Jon--> Haha
[22:26] <Starminn> speedxcore: Probably. You can on Windows and mobile devices so I'd say so
[22:26] <Jon--> True :P
[22:26] <Seven_Six_Two> speedxcore, I believe you can. I read about a new client for windows, so another distro shouldn't be a problem.
[22:26] <Jon--> I gotta go eat, thanks for clearing the whole Chromium/Chrome stuff
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> speedxcore: i'd ask in their channels to check
[22:26] <hachre> Jon--: cya ;)
[22:26] <Malina> :)
[22:26] <speedxcore> ActionParsnip: which channel?
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> speedxcore: wel debian's channel is #debian
[22:26] <speedxcore> ActionParsnip: ah you mean like that.
[22:26] <Malina> by the way, this is a mix question.. can I lock down gome2, so any upgrade or when I do dist upgrade form 10.10 I won;'t get unity or G3 (gnome3)?
[22:26] <Eyes> erUSUL: b43-phy0 ERROR: Fatal DMA error: 0x00000800
[22:26] <speedxcore> ActionParsnip: I check it out
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> speedxcore: #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org is the mint channel
[22:27] <speedxcore> ActionParsnip: mkey thaks
[22:27] <Malina> else, my ubuntu times have come to an end for a bit till either it is more modular, cusomtisable or altogether lockable :p
[22:27] <hwilde> anybody have insight with nvidia quadro 600?  nvidia-xconfig bricks the system.  I've tried installing all of the drivers.  nvidia-settings says it's not in use, but it is.
[22:27] <Starminn> Malina: Those are shells so you'll keep GNOME2
[22:28] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, you can lock packages in synaptic, and there's also a file (don't remember where) that sets the "upgradable" flag
[22:28] <Malina> ok thank god
[22:28] <Malina> thanks Starminn  Seven_Six_Two
[22:28] <ActionParsnip> !pin
[22:28] <erUSUL> Eyes: 502433
[22:28] <Malina> but pinning is just about priority isnt it?
[22:28] <tr3nton> !gnomeshell
[22:28] <erUSUL> Eyes: sorry https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/502433
[22:28] <erUSUL> Eyes: try with newer drivers ? « sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-$(lsb_release -cs)-generic »
[22:29] <Seven_Six_Two> that's what it's called. I once did a pinned downgrade against the advice of people in irc. I think that was etch->woody
[22:29] <Eyes> erUSUL: apparently this DMA error isnt uncommon hahaha
[22:29] <erUSUL> Eyes: no; not at all
[22:30] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, pinning will stop a package from upgrading or downgrading, but isn't fun because of dependency hell
[22:30] <Malina> ye I thought with pinning, I would only set priority of which reps to use
[22:31] <jayant> hello everybody. Can somebody tell me which package provides the command "who" ? Thank you
[22:31] <Malina> like pinning 700 repo universe , 600 multiverse then multiverse would be preferred or aso
[22:31] <Malina> but as long as I can lock in synaptic or so, but will that lead to dependency hell as well?
[22:31] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, it can be if you add a ppa but need to keep an older library that would otherwise update it.
[22:32] <Malina> ok Seven_Six_Two , so hmm, basically dep hell or leave ubuntu?
[22:32] <MK`> oh! I forgot. Does ubuntu have full ipv6 support?
[22:32] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, it depends on what you try to keep, and what needs a newer version to work. The lower level the package you try to pin (like libc6) the more likely you'll have trouble.
[22:32] <Malina> gah.. well.. it was fun whilst it lasted.. great diustro but seems I will fall back to either squeeze or go rolling release but which is more modular (eg. arch)
[22:33] <Malina> ye but holding back unity / G3 surely to keep gnome 2 surely will be as you say
[22:33] <Malina> dep hell :/
[22:33] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, I'm sorry, I interjected and I don't even think I know what your issue is
[22:33] <Malina> unity isn't "terrible' but it just is too inefifcient a desktop layout for me
[22:33] <yuler> I want to move my /home to a different partition (same ext4 filesystem), but getting inexact copies using "diff -r".  http://linuxmafia.com/faq/VALinux-kb/copying-directory-trees.html indicates the --sparse switch may be the reason.  Can anyone clarify what that does and why I would or would not want to use it?  Do I really need to copy all /home files over, or will some be rebuilt?
[22:33] <Fireblasto> add #ubuntu
[22:33] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, only if the new packages are replacements for what you have.
[22:33] <Malina> no Seven_Six_Two , your advice is accurate
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> Malina: just log into the traditional desktop. It is present in Natty....
[22:34] <Malina> it is precsiely what I need to get a picture of to know if I a to hack in my new natty release and 'lock it down' or if im in worse trouble than i hoped
[22:34] <erUSUL> !separatehome | yuler
[22:34] <Fireblasto> add #ubuntu
[22:34] <Seven_Six_Two> Malina, if unity and g3 are just shells, it's likely you'll be able to keep your current desktop
[22:34] <Malina> ActionParsnip,  oh? is it ? :$ jpw?
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> Malina: yes, just log out of unity, then click username then choose the desktop from the session drop down.
[22:35] <GuyCanada> good god, is there a way to revert back to the interface from 10.10, just installed 11.04 beta and its fucking terrible
[22:35] <Malina> ah well, I mean ok I thought Gnome 3 was more than just
[22:35] <yuler> I've read psychocats page.  It produced a difference with "diff -r", hence further research and IRC.
[22:35] <bazhang> GuyCanada, no cursing
[22:35] <GuyCanada> kk sorry
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> Malina: you need to research before making such ridiculous statements
[22:35] <iceroot_> GuyCanada: #ubuntu+1
[22:35] <Malina> ah ok, so I can have unity AND gnome 3 (I knew I can have like the xfce kde etc but i thought unity was a spawn of G3 which would update gnome 2)
[22:35] <Malina> ActionParsnip, I just came in to ask, not to claim, and I didn't know :/
[22:35] <Seven_Six_Two> GuyCanada, log out and log back in, choosing another desktop from the session dropdown
[22:35] <GuyCanada> kk
[22:35] <erUSUL> yuler: a difference means? a file not matching? copy that file again
[22:36] <Malina> I bnee truggling with a non OS comp for 2 days since I wiped my disk abnd the natty isos wouldnt install, thank you very much
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> Malina: so why the "i'm going back to squeeze" stuff then....
[22:36] <Malina> no 'back to'
[22:36] <Malina> I been on ubuntuy fior 2 yrs
[22:36] <Malina> for*
[22:36] <yuler> erUSUL:  hundreds or files
[22:36] <Malina> because I thought that I didn't have a choice to keep gnome which i have used for yrs ahead of unity, which I thought was a ubbuntu versiion of new gnome or something
[22:37] <Malina> and it sounded like if I wish to keep gnome 2 without unity I can get dep hell
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> Malina: linux touts choice so taking it away would be against everything linux is
[22:37] <Starminn> Malina: By default, Natty will have the choice to use either Unity or "classic" (GNOME 2)
[22:37] <erUSUL> yuler: :( you used the exact command? the find cpio combo ?
[22:38] <Malina> GREAT Starminn , sorry I didn't have a feeling it was like that
[22:38] <Starminn> Malina: They're different, so it's okay. :) You can also use GNOME 3 if you'd rather, instead of one of those.
[22:38] <FrankFurter> hello, I'm thinking of switching my ventrilo server to ubuntu server edition.  How do I download the .tar.gz file from the command line?
[22:38] <Malina> ya, I was looking forward to gnome 3, I will like it in time but am waiting till customisation is more de fact available I think :)
[22:39] <maco> FrankFurter: wget
[22:39] <FrankFurter> maco where do I find the path to the file?
[22:39] <braxton> Is there a 64-bit version of ubuntu?
[22:39] <maco> FrankFurter: no idea. i assumed you knew what .tar.gz you wanted...
[22:39] <maco> braxton: yes
[22:39] <Seven_Six_Two> braxton, yes
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> FrankFurter: you can use lynx to web browse to the file
[22:39] <erUSUL> braxton: yes
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> braxton: yes
[22:40] <MK`> I am using ubuntu 64-bit now :)
[22:40] <braxton> I am running a 32 bit version, but apparently my computer has a 64 bit width processor.
[22:40] <yuler> erUSUL: yes.  After "diff -r",  I notice the --sparse switch on cpio and found it may be why there is a difference, but being rather new, I'm not entirely certain.
[22:40] <hwilde> braxton, yes
[22:40]  * hwilde just wanted to fit in
[22:40] <FrankFurter> I know which one I want
[22:40] <FrankFurter> ActionParsnip, thanks
[22:40] <Seven_Six_Two> I'm 64 bit too!
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> braxton: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/
[22:40] <Fireblasto> add #ubuntu
[22:40] <maco> ActionParsnip: im confused now. isnt that just full of isos?
[22:41] <fennucci> omg hi
[22:41] <MK`> what advantages are there to having your /home on a separate partition?
[22:41] <Seven_Six_Two> hey fennucci
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> maco: read the 2nd link: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.10/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64.iso
[22:41] <luis__> hi
[22:41] <GuyCanada> ok so im back on the ubuntu classic interface but now google chrome has a window border where it didnt used to
[22:41] <maco> ActionParsnip: oh sorry i thought you were responding to the tarball thing
[22:41] <GuyCanada> can i fix this?
[22:41] <Seven_Six_Two> MK`, your home files won't cause the system to run out of space for important stuff like logs
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> MK`: easier backups, easier reinstalls as you just have to set the partition as /home and the settings are retained
[22:41] <red2kic> MK`: You never have to back up your home directory.
[22:42] <maco> red2kic: not true
[22:42] <Starminn> MK`: If you have to reinstall, your files will be preserved.
[22:42] <red2kic> MK`: Better advantage to have /home on different hard drive. :)
[22:42] <MK`> Ah.
[22:42] <drozdak> any obenbox users in here?
[22:42] <red2kic> maco: Well, only if the hard drive failed.
[22:42] <maco> red2kic: using a separate partition is no guarantee against a disk failure.
[22:42] <Seven_Six_Two> MK`, that's the most important! you can reinstall and keep all of your personal files and settings and emails etc
[22:42] <drozdak> *openbox
[22:42] <maco> red2kic: right, which is why i thought people usually had backups....
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> drozdak: on my server I use LXDE + openbox
[22:42] <GuyCanada> how do i restart compiz?
[22:42] <Malina> braxton, how much memory (RAM) do you have?
[22:42] <braxton> Malina: What's the command for that?
[22:42] <Malina> for all 'modern' /new computers, 4 GB ram is pretty uch the minimum, so 64 is becoming a de facto arch more and more now in the desktop worold, whne that happens, those last pesky plugins will soon enough suddenly materialise ;p
[22:42] <Malina> braxton, ytype
[22:42] <Malina> top
[22:42] <FloodBot1> Malina: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:42] <MK`> so / holds the base installation and /home holds all the configs for it?
[22:42] <maco> GuyCanada: compiz --replace
[22:42] <Fireblasto> add #ubuntu
[22:42] <erUSUL> yuler: it may be if you had many files with 0's if i am reading the cpio manual correctly
[22:42] <maco> MK`: /home holds per-user configs
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: alt+f2:  compiz --replace
[22:42] <braxton> Malina: I dont' have ytype installed.
[22:42] <MK`> ok
[22:42] <maco> MK`: systemwide configs are in /etc
[22:43] <GuyCanada> thanks guys
[22:43] <Malina> stop trolling braxton
[22:43] <Malina> ,,!,,
[22:43] <MK`> I wonder if I should separate them
[22:43] <MK`> I'll test it out on my other PC where I *just* installed Ubuntu
[22:43] <braxton> Malina: Do you want a screenshot? And no, I'm afraid I'm not a troll.
[22:43] <MK`> and /home is empty
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> MK`: yes, or you can have /home as just a folder in /
[22:43] <braxton> Malina: Just give me a second.
[22:43] <drozdak> ActionParsnip i have problem with hinting on openbox + xfce panel at ubuntu 8.04
[22:43] <Malina> it's a bloody typo:
[22:43] <Malina> TYPE
[22:43] <Malina> top
[22:43] <Malina> in
[22:43] <Malina> console
[22:43] <FloodBot1> Malina: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:43] <bazhang> Malina, stop that
[22:43] <Fireblasto> add #ubuntu
[22:43] <hwilde> braxton, type "free" how much memory does it say total
[22:43] <bazhang> Fireblasto, thats not how to add
[22:43] <LjL> Fireblasto: what are you trying to do?
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> drozdak: wassup?
[22:44] <Seven_Six_Two> MK`, separate home is definitely the way to go for a desktop. I do a separate /var for my server, for similar reasons
[22:44] <Fireblasto> bazhang and LjL, script going wrong, fixing right now actually
[22:44] <Fireblasto> don't panic ;)
[22:44] <bazhang> Fireblasto, okay
[22:44] <braxton> 2836232 k total.
[22:45] <MK`> This is a laptop, so can I get away with having them the same here?
[22:45] <drozdak> its the hinting i have it in any gtk apps but on openbox window decoration fonts doesnt semm to have it
[22:45] <leapy0yo> one of my external hard drive constantly spins down then up again. How can i fix that
[22:45] <yuler> erUSUL: I thought the same thing, seeing how there's a few unstarted torrents in /home/Downloads.  Rather than clean /home to minimize zero stringed files, I just want to copy the files as-is and sort it out after I've mounted the new /home.
[22:45] <drozdak> its good on newer ubuntu installs but i dont wanna upgrade right now
[22:45] <braxton> Malina: Why does my RAM matter?
[22:45] <hwilde> braxton, what is your question?
[22:45] <MK`> actually... On the old PC I installed Ubuntu on an old harddrive. I think it'd be more wise to install /home and swap on the old HD (like, 10 years old) while putting /home on the younger one
[22:46] <Seven_Six_Two> MK`, yes. by laptop, I mean a normal machine for a normal user or 10
[22:46] <MK`> er
[22:46] <Fireblasto> www.ubuntu.com
[22:46] <MK`>  / and swap
[22:46] <MK`> ok
[22:46] <braxton> Well earlier I asked if there was a 64 bit version of ubuntu, which there is, and then Malina asked me how much ram I had.
[22:46] <Fireblasto> mhm
[22:46] <Fireblasto> good
[22:46] <Fireblasto> no reaction from the script
[22:46] <erUSUL> yuler: use another copying method? cp -a ?
[22:46] <hwilde> braxton, we answered your question now what do you want
[22:46] <DrekAlots> From the CLI and hafter setting up a PPTP tunnel what command can you use to verify the tunnel is up?
[22:47] <LjL> i can't get wireless (using network manager) working with my eeepc 901 at the moment, it's probably something i did, but i last used it long ago and right now i can't pinpoint what it is. can you help me troubleshoot? i'm on maverick
[22:47] <braxton> hwilde: I would like to have better performance and I think I would like to change to the 64 bit version, but I'm not sure if I should.
[22:47] <Seven_Six_Two> yuler, if you just want a verbatim copy, that's what dd is for.
[22:47] <drozdak> ActionParsnip i propably just need a good copy of configuration file from newer ubuntu/openbox release for proper font hinting
[22:47] <MK`> Running ubuntu 64 with xchat and several instances of pidgin, I am currently at 588 MB ram
[22:47] <hwilde> braxton, 64bit version lets you use more ram.  if you have a 64bit machine then go ahead and try 64bit version and more ram
[22:47] <Axlin> braxton: i think his/her mindset was that if you had, say, less than 4 GB of RAM, then there's not much need to worry about switching to the 64 bit version
[22:47] <Seven_Six_Two> yuler, it will copy regardless of file states
[22:48] <erUSUL> LjL: you have wlan0 in iwconfig? can it scan? « sudo iwlist wlan0 scan » ?
[22:48] <Starminn> How can I tell if my machine is 64-bit compatible?
[22:48] <LjL> erUSUL: Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[22:48] <erUSUL> LjL: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: check your CPU architecture and see what it is, 64bit or 32bit
[22:49] <braxton> hwilde: Well, when I divided the total amount of memory I had in top by 1024, I got a non-integer, which is weird.
[22:49] <hwilde> braxton, you have 3Gigs
[22:49] <fennucci> Starminn,
[22:49] <fennucci> what kind of processor you have?
[22:49] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: I know that. :) I was just wondring where I could find that information ;) I don't think it is, as it's old, but I'm just curious.
[22:49] <MK`> XD I think I found a bug
[22:49] <red2kic> Starminn: Run "lscpu"
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> braxton: you can use:  free -m  to express it in Mb instead, easier to read
[22:49] <MK`> I checked the size of / and it says 128 TB.
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: well, what CPU do you have?
[22:50] <neverblue> anyone able to help me get my proftpd server running, I can connect, but the connection drops immediately ?
[22:50] <LjL> erUSUL: Operation is not possible due to RF-kill.      now i remember i got this the other day and tried to mess with rfkill, and there is both an "eeepc-wlan" and a "phy5" Wireless LAN there, if that's of any importance. i also have eee-control installed (wifi is enabled on it), thinking that might be related.
[22:50] <Starminn> Architecture is i686,  but CPU op-mode(s) are 32-bit and 64-bit. (What is an op-mode?)
[22:50] <red2kic> Starminn: You probably can use 64bit.
[22:51] <erUSUL> LjL: « sudo rfkill list all » output shows something blocked?
[22:51] <braxton> hwilde: So switching to 64 bit wouldn't help me at all? That sucks.
[22:51] <Seven_Six_Two> how do I request a chanop?
[22:51] <Starminn> red2kic: Even though it's not an AMD64 architecture?
[22:51] <hwilde> braxton, espeically if your performance is not currently ram-limited.
[22:51] <LjL> erUSUL: yes, phy5 is soft blocked.
[22:51] <fennucci> is there anyway to setup a quick way to change screen brightness without going into the actual preferences panel?
[22:51] <Starminn> braxton: There's always PAE kernel
[22:51] <red2kic> Starminn: amd64 or intel64 or whatever64 is really samething.
[22:51] <braxton> hwilde: Well, for some reason I can't run minecraft and firefox at the same time.
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: yes thats the arch of ubuntu,what is the output of: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model | grep name
[22:51] <hwilde> braxton, try google-chrome
[22:51] <fennucci> how much ram you has braxton
[22:51] <braxton> hwilde: Well, I can, but with severe frame rate cuts in mft.inecra
[22:52] <fennucci> get more maybe
[22:52] <erUSUL> LjL: « sudo rfkill unblock all  » or phy5 instead of all
[22:52] <braxton> *minecraft
[22:52] <maco> fennucci: 3gb
[22:52] <braxton> fennucci: I'm on a laptop.
[22:52] <fennucci> I have 8gb of ram, and a i7 and I can do like million things
[22:52] <red2kic> Starminn: AMD came up with cpu64 first so we name it amd64.
[22:52] <braxton> Starminn: What?
[22:52] <fennucci> me too
[22:52] <hwilde> braxton, get a desktop, get a better video card, duhh
[22:52] <fennucci> I heard there were issues with i7 and ubuntu?
[22:52] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: Oh. It's an Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz
[22:52] <fennucci> I'm about to try installing ubuntu on my toshiba a505
[22:52] <fennucci> with i7
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: then its 32bit
[22:52] <fennucci> dual boot
[22:52] <Starminn> red2kic: I know AMD64 == 64-bit. :)
[22:52] <neverblue> my FTP client receives 'PORT command failed'
[22:52] <LjL> erUSUL: ok, network manager sprang to life. now i don't know whether this will happen again next time i boot, but at least i know how to solve it temporarily, thanks
[22:52] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: What gave it away?
[22:52] <maco> braxton: PAE= Physical Address Extensions ... it's a 32bit extension that lets > 4GB of RAM be addressed by the OS, but each program is still limited to 4GB
[22:53] <red2kic> Starminn: The worst scenario? The amd64 disc stopped you from installing because it's incompatible.
[22:53] <jjlee> I have an apple trackpad which worked fine for me some months ago.  Now when I pair it I get a udev remove event a second or two right after the udev add event.  Any idea what's causing that?
[22:53] <Starminn> !pae | braxton
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> Starminn: there are no 64bit P4s ;)
[22:53] <siti> hye
[22:53] <hwilde> braxton, here is the solution for you:   get a desktop, get a better video card.  end of story bro
[22:53] <braxton> hwilde: The problem occurs on chrome too, which now makes me think that the problem isn't related to the browser.
[22:53] <erUSUL> LjL: no problem. the least i can do for someone like you :)
[22:53] <Starminn> ActionParsnip: :) Aha. That would do it, haha
[22:53] <hwilde> braxton, minecraft is eating all your video card.
[22:53] <Belial``> ActionParsnip, the Pentium DC is based on prescott which is a core for the p4.
[22:53] <MK`> When I boot Ubuntu I always get this error: "init: Failed to spawn smbd main process: unable to execute: No such file or directory" but it boots up properly. What causes this?
[22:53] <Phoenix_Silver> hi guys
[22:53] <red2kic> MK`: Samba.
[22:54] <Belial``> ActionParsnip, or i'm sorry. DC is based on core duo, the D is based on the p4.
[22:54] <erUSUL> !find b43
[22:54] <MK`> Is that maybe why my internet light is on when I am not connected? :P
[22:54] <red2kic> MK`: I don't know. Internet light? Do you have samba installed?
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> Belial``:  but that is all was outputted so its an old P4, maybe I was wrong about the 'all' bit :D, the cpuinfo points to a 32bit chip
[22:54] <fennucci> ubuntu has fucked up my wireless light on my laptop
[22:55] <iTails1> Hello, I came in here yesterday to inquire on how to get my wireless working on my Acer Aspire D250. I tried some things and the wireless drivers still wont work. I've tried both of the proprietary drivers for Ubuntu.
[22:55] <fennucci> it blinks from red to blue making it look purple
[22:55] <bazhang> fennucci, no cursing
[22:55] <Belial``> ActionParsnip, yeah, you're definitely right in this situation.
[22:55] <fennucci> I cursed?
[22:55] <fennucci> o
[22:55] <fennucci> sorry
[22:55] <MK`> I have xsmbrowser
[22:55] <MK`> but not Samba
[22:55] <Phoenix_Silver> anyone tried ubuntu 11.04 works like a charm very promising desktop
[22:55] <bazhang> Phoenix_Silver, discussion in #ubuntu+1 please
[22:56] <b1lly> is there a way to check my sound drivers cuz my sound doesnt work
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> Phoenix_Silver: works fine here. natty  support and discussion in #ubuntu+1
[22:56] <b1lly> ubuntu 10.10
[22:56] <Phoenix_Silver> ho sorry :)
[22:56] <iTails1> Hello, I came in here yesterday to inquire on how to get my wireless working on my Acer Aspire D250. I tried some things and the wireless drivers still wont work. I've tried both of the proprietary drivers for Ubuntu.
[22:56] <red2kic> MK`: Ubuntu tried to start a process/service that does not exist. If Samba isn't installed, that's what occur. Either you ignore it or you remove the startup script or you install samba.
[22:56] <MK`> go to System > preferences > sound, in hardware check the speakers billy
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: can you give the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh    Thanks
[22:56] <MK`> I never installed Samba... hm.
[22:57] <red2kic> MK`: Right-click and share a folder. See what happen.
[22:57] <b1lly> ActionParsnip: just type that entire thing?
[22:57] <neverblue> can someone allow any user to access their FTP site, i am using proftpd and trying to conf all system users to connect, i get an immediate dropped connection, after any user connects?
[22:57] <Phoenix_Silver> another question there is ubunjtu 64 bits ubuntu laptop but is there a ubuntu laptop 64 bits ?
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: copy and paste the entire command
[22:57] <fennucci> Anyone know whyh ubuntu would mess with hardware lights?
[22:57] <MK`> "Sharing service is not installed" asks me if I want to install the sharing service
[22:57] <iTails1> Hello, I came in here yesterday to inquire on how to get my wireless working on my Acer Aspire D250. I tried some things and the wireless drivers still wont work. I've tried both of the proprietary drivers for Ubuntu. Can I have some help?
[22:57] <red2kic> Phoenix_Silver: amd64 is for computer/laptop.
[22:57] <erUSUL> fennucci: to make them work ?
[22:58] <Phoenix_Silver> ho oki red2kic it's what i have installed :)
[22:58] <red2kic> MK`: That's Samba. People use it to share stuffs (with other computer locally).
[22:58] <fennucci> no
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> Phoenix_Silver: you can install the 64bit on a lappy if you wish
[22:58] <fennucci> for instance my laptop has a wifi light
[22:58] <chadwin> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii guys
[22:58] <MK`> Ah. Sounds useful
[22:58] <fennucci> blue is on red is off, anbd they are blinking
[22:58] <MK`> I'll install it
[22:58] <fennucci> so it looks purple almost
[22:58] <nono> ola
[22:58] <fennucci> how come my toshiba laptop wont boot from ubuntu live cd
[22:58] <fennucci> :(
[22:58] <b1lly> ActionParsnip: should i upload the info ?
[22:59] <ymasory> is there something like kcolorchooser that doesn't rely on kde?
[22:59] <Phoenix_Silver> i have installed 64 bits on this laptop ActionParsnip
[22:59] <spyder49> ubuntu
[22:59] <spyder49> ubuntu
[22:59] <Phoenix_Silver> works like a charm :)
[22:59] <b1lly> ActionParsnip: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=cd6a69c0d843287904b568c4e726dd796e536174
[22:59] <xjerx> sometimes
[22:59] <ActionParsnip> b1lly: please, i gotta jet but it will help others to help you ;)
[22:59] <MK`> thank you red2kic
[23:00] <MK`> This will allow me to share with windows?
[23:00] <red2kic> MK`: No problem. Yes. It will allow you to share with Windows.
[23:00] <nono> this is a suck
[23:00] <MK`> Awesome
[23:00] <red2kic> !samba | MK`
[23:00] <red2kic> MK`: Here you go. :)
[23:00] <MK`> I was using xsmbrowser to access a windows share
[23:00] <MK`> maybe that installation added the smbd script
[23:00] <Phoenix_Silver> you can use ssh
[23:01] <red2kic> MK`: You can use Places --> Network
[23:01] <Seven_Six_Two> nono, that's not a helpful sentence. if you need help, ask a question.
[23:01] <yasmin_> *!list*
[23:01] <MK`> !
[23:01] <MK`> When did that happen? or is that Samba now
[23:01] <MK`> Before when I clicked there it didn't show anything for windows heh
[23:01] <red2kic> MK`: No. It have been there since. You just don't know. :)
[23:01] <MK`> Amazing
[23:01] <MK`> Thanks man
[23:02] <achraf> hi
[23:02] <snake__> I'm using rhythmbox, and all of my songs are an unknown time range. Can this be fixed? (mp3 format)
[23:02] <BajK> why doesnt Kubuntu ahve an context menu optiomn "Run as root" while ubuntu does?
[23:02] <fennucci> anyone reason the live cd wouldnt boot?
[23:03] <Seven_Six_Two> snake_, do you have a digital stopwatch and 2 wires with alligator clips?
[23:03] <Phoenix_Silver> which live cd fennucci ?
[23:03] <snake__> Seven_Six_Two, lemme search my couch cussions.
[23:03] <fennucci> LTS 10.04 Phoenix_Silver
[23:03] <fennucci> on a toshiba a505, i7, etc..
[23:04] <Seven_Six_Two> snake_, lol. do you see the time in other programs, like amarok, audacious, etc?
[23:04] <Phoenix_Silver> no reason fennucci always booted for me
[23:04] <Phoenix_Silver> have you set the vesa mode at boot fennucci ?
[23:05] <fennucci> sorry?
[23:05] <fennucci> I pressed esc
[23:05] <fennucci> and all that was presented was WIndows 7
[23:05] <fennucci> I opened cd drive
[23:05] <fennucci> and closed it again
[23:05] <snake__> Seven_Six_Two, yes actually. it does.
[23:05] <fennucci> thikning perhaps that would do something, but with no luck
[23:05] <fennucci> I'll try again
[23:05] <FloodBot1> fennucci: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:05] <FloodBot2> fennucci: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:05] <siti>  hello everyone
[23:05] <lxuser> hello?
[23:05] <Phoenix_Silver> hello
[23:05] <ayecee> hi
[23:05] <fennucci> hi
[23:06] <lxuser> I need some help if possible
[23:06] <fennucci> gar
[23:06] <fennucci> thsi is annoying
[23:06] <Phoenix_Silver> don't ask to ask .... ask :)
[23:06] <Gulfstream> how do I find my encryption key?
[23:06] <Starminn> !ask
[23:06] <Phoenix_Silver> lol
[23:07] <meganerd> Gulfstream: for which service?  PGP, ssh, etc?
[23:07] <Seven_Six_Two> snake__, well, unfortunately I can't help, but at least you know it's only rhythmbox. I never liked rhytmbox anyhow. MPD is the way to go, especially if you have a large collection and/or multiple computers
[23:07] <Starminn> Phoenix_Silver: It was driving me batty too.
[23:07] <Random_Dude> \exit
[23:07] <Gulfstream> meganerd: umm... hard drive
[23:07] <lxuser> just installed a DVD and it will only play the audio with Movie player with the error... No URI handler implemented for "dvd"
[23:07] <cmykify> I can't run any apps on 10.10, not even terminal or synaptic... any ideas?
[23:07] <Phoenix_Silver> old old irc precept :)
[23:08] <maco> cmykify: if you ctrl+alt+f1, can you login? if so, can you type "mount" and see if it says "ro" in the / row?
[23:08] <meganerd> cmykify: you can't run apps, or you can't install apps?
[23:08] <KamiKazeKenji> Does anyone know where the config file of totem is?
[23:08] <erUSUL> KamiKazeKenji: probably uses gconf
[23:08] <Gulfstream> the encrypted private directory
[23:08] <mouse> Is there a way to change the default login sound without moving/changing the desktop-login.ogg file?
[23:08] <Gulfstream> how do I find the key for it?
[23:08] <Seven_Six_Two> Kamakazi, IIRC, totem uses a backend, either xine or gstreamer.
[23:09] <lxuser> did anybody see my message, there are a lot on here I see. ??
[23:09] <MK`> When i am not connected to the internet my internet light is stuck in the "on" position, how can I fix that?
[23:09] <meganerd> Gulfstream: did you write it down when it prompted you too when you first logged in?
[23:09] <Seven_Six_Two> lxuser, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:09] <Gulfstream> meganerd: no, but it said I could use a command to get the key
[23:09] <fennucci> Does anyone use Gdesklets?
[23:10] <fennucci> is desklet like a widget?gadget?
[23:10] <meganerd> Gulfstream: are you logged in as that user?  That command only works if you can still log in as that user
[23:10] <KamiKazeKenji> When I press the arrow keys to rewind or fast-forward while playing audio files, it jumps 15 seconds at a time, and I found that annoying. I wanted to reduce this to five seconds. Is it possible?
[23:10] <Gulfstream> meganerd: I am logged in as the user, do you know what the command is?
[23:10] <neverblue> proftpd help: can someone link me to their folder shared portion of the .conf? I want to see how someone else setup the ~ folder shares.
[23:10] <lxuser> how, with symantic package thing?
[23:11] <Starminn> fennucci: Widgets
[23:11] <GatunoRox> hello o/
[23:11] <Phoenix_Silver> yes like android widgets
[23:11] <Phoenix_Silver> hi GatunoRox
[23:12] <lxuser> it's installing, thank you.
[23:12] <Starminn> Phoenix_Silver: Or KDE, or newer Windows, etc.
[23:12] <linusoleander> Any one knows how to get the PID out of a nohup running process?
[23:12] <fisix> how can i tell if encryptfs is already enabled and acting when i log in?
[23:12] <Gulfstream> meganerd: nevermind. I found it.
[23:12] <GatunoRox> I'm a newbie linux user, and I have a couple doubts, if it don't bother anyone I'd like you people to answer them
[23:13] <mickster04> GatunoRox: just ask away
[23:13] <GatunoRox> thx
[23:14] <GatunoRox> first, is there some good advice as to where should I start learning the insides of linux?
[23:14] <meganerd> Gulfstream: np,
[23:14] <neverblue> proftpd help: can someone link me to their folder shared portion of the .conf? I want to see how someone else setup the ~ folder shares.
[23:14] <zvacet> GatunoRox:  see http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html
[23:15] <GatunoRox> thx
[23:15] <Phoenix_Silver> linux from scratch GatunoRox
[23:15] <zvacet> GatunoRox:  yw  :)
[23:16] <GatunoRox> 2nd: ifI install Ubuntu on an USB HDD, Full installation, with grub installed on the external hdd, can I boot it from another computer other than the one I used to install?
[23:16] <Gulfstream> is it worth encrypting the hard drive? will it slow it down?
[23:16] <Phoenix_Silver> of course GatunoRox
[23:16] <meganerd> GatunoRox: yes
[23:17] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: yes
[23:17] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: encryption is cpu intensive
[23:17] <tim167> hi, i had to restart pulseaudio, but i don't get my audio back, what can i do ?
[23:17] <GatunoRox> then, how can I set the different hardware settings ?
[23:17] <hiexpo> ? did ubuntu 10.10 switchto extlinux ?
[23:17] <GatunoRox> can I make hardware profiles?
[23:17] <Gulfstream> thanks erUSUL
[23:17] <meganerd> GatunoRox: most of it should get autodetected
[23:18] <Phoenix_Silver> usually it's automatic GatunoRox
[23:18] <habanany> ubunru 11.04  beta< where is the irc?
[23:18] <habanany> the address ?
[23:18] <GatunoRox> what about proprietary drivers? lile GPU
[23:18] <bazhang> habanany, #ubuntu+1
[23:18] <erUSUL> Gulfstream: the 2nd question answer's is yes. you can boot your external install in different computers
[23:18] <hwilde> anybody have insight with nvidia quadro 600?  nvidia-xconfig bricks the system.  I've tried installing all of the drivers.  nvidia-settings says it's not in use, but it is.
[23:18] <habanany> thankssss
[23:18] <mr_orange_> Is there a file in Ubuntu 10.10 netbook where the firewall configurations are kept?
[23:18] <meganerd> GatunoRox: you will get more ethernet devices (eg. eth1 eth2) as it remembers the MAC addresses of all the cards that it sees, but it should still work.  I have 10.10 on a USB hard drive that I carry with me
[23:18] <bazhang> mr_orange_, you mean iptables?
[23:19] <Phoenix_Silver> same thing here in a usb stick
[23:19] <mr_orange_> bazhang, i mean a file where I can edit my firewall settings
[23:19] <gilles__> where can i go to post a pic about my issue  ?
[23:19] <mickster04> !paste
[23:19] <GatunoRox> strangely, when I tried too boot on my desktop, I got to the grub screen np, and when I selected Ubuntu it went black screen forever
[23:20] <MK`> Is there a non-pain-in-the-ass way to get Ubuntu to hibernate?
[23:20] <neverblue> when running an FTP server, what ports are required? just 21 or both 21 and 22 ?
[23:20] <kryl> hi
[23:21] <kryl> I have a problem with ubuntu (maverick) I don't understand why since last upgrade I can't mount ntfs partition and I have no error logs ! that's curious ! do u have any return ?
[23:21] <hachre> neverblue: just 21, 22 is ssh...
[23:21] <mouse> Is there a way to change the default login sound without moving/changing the desktop-login.ogg file?
[23:21] <meganerd> neverblue: 20 and 21
[23:21] <neverblue> i meant, 20-21
[23:21] <Starminn> MK`: Power menu->hibernate?
[23:21] <Phoenix_Silver> 20 and 21
[23:21] <meganerd> neverblue: 22 is for ssh, scp, and sftp (not to be confused with ftps)
[23:22] <neverblue> so 20 -needs- to be open ?
[23:22] <hachre> no
[23:22] <hachre> not imo
[23:22] <hachre> only 21
[23:22] <neverblue> i connect, but then I am dropped immediately
[23:22] <neverblue> FTP client quotes PORT command failed
[23:22] <mr_orange_> Is there a file where I can edit my firewall settings for Ubuntu 10.10 netbook?
[23:22] <GatunoRox> anyway
[23:22] <neverblue> so the communication server -> client seems to fail
[23:22] <meganerd> neverblue: yes, 20 should be open
[23:23] <Starminn> !firewall | mr_orange_
[23:23] <neverblue> PORT assigns the communication port
[23:23] <yasmin_> *ubuntu*
[23:23] <terry_> mr_orange_: Have you created a firewall?
[23:23] <meganerd> neverblue: ideally you would not use ftp at all.

[23:23] <slakcphil> this stuff is awesome!
[23:23] <GatunoRox> I quit using my 16GB usb stick when trying to boot, it took as long as 10 boots and it started corrupting itself
[23:24] <terry_> mr_orange_: Or are you wanting to...?
[23:24] <neverblue> ugh
[23:24] <Starminn> slakcphil: And is also off-topic. Please continue this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:24] <neverblue> not working
[23:24] <mr_orange_> terry_ wanting too
 sorry man
[23:24] <neverblue> restarting the Server, this doesn't seem to be working
[23:24] <terry_> mr_orange_: use ufw or install firestarter
[23:24] <trism> mouse: the login sound is played by the GNOME Login Sound line in Startup Applications, so just replace the arguments to canberra-gtk-play with -f /path/to/file/to/play
[23:24] <maco> is there a way to make grub 2 use vi-style commands like grub 1 did? or can it only do nano-style?
[23:24] <Starminn> slakcphil: No problem.
[23:24] <mr_orange_> terry_ ok thank you
[23:25] <neverblue> meganerd, FTP has it purposes
[23:25] <eshannon> hello everyone I need a little help with 2 new drives I installed. I used gparted to create partitions and format. I can access them but not able to add files or create folders
[23:25] <terry_> mr_orange_: ufw should be already installed.
[23:25] <fennucci> ugh my toshiba is being the lame, I should just uninstal windows and put ubuntu on
[23:25] <fennucci> the live cd wont boot for some reason
[23:25] <mouse> trism, Does that work with non-.ogg files?
[23:25] <terry_> eshannon: How are they mounted? mount
[23:25] <fennucci> I dont know if its a problem with my laptop or something else
[23:25] <mr_orange_> terry_ do i need to enable it
[23:25] <terry_> mr_orange_: Yes
[23:26] <trism> mouse: I don't know, you'd have to test it
[23:26] <terry_> mr_orange_: ...only if you want to, or find some need for it.
[23:26] <mouse> trism, Okay thank you.  That helps a lot.
[23:26] <mr_orange_> terry_ is there a way to view the default settings
[23:26] <eshannon> terry_ they mounted themselves. I can see them under places
[23:26] <terry_> mr_orange_: There is nothing blocked by default, but yes...  iptables -L

[23:27] <jessdog9001> Hello, I have a fairly serious issue with Ubuntu 10.10. I used the alternate CD to do a normal installation, and on first boot I get a completely blank screen that just stays blank. After some poking around, I got it to boot using the boot parameters "single nomodeset".
[23:27] <MK`> Hehe wow. I asked: "MK`> Is there a non-pain-in-the-ass way to get Ubuntu to hibernate?", then closed my screen for a second after locking it, and when I reopened it the screen did not reenable. I had to cut power.
[23:27] <MK`> So it's not just hibernation that's broken for me :/
[23:27] <Phoenix_Silver> fennucci:  have you tried F6 ? safe graphics mode ?
[23:27] <hwilde> anybody have insight with nvidia quadro 600?  nvidia-xconfig bricks the system.  I've tried installing all of the drivers.  nvidia-settings says it's not in use, but it is.
[23:27] <terry_> eshannon: mount | pastebinit  #and send us the resulting URL.
[23:27] <jessdog9001> But then I have no graphical acceleration. The problem appears to be related to my graphics card: Radeon 9600.
[23:28] <jessdog9001> I am currently running Ubuntu 10.10, but with VESA driver which really stinks.

[23:28] <Somelauw> Hi, I tried installing cake. So I downloaded cake then typed sudo ln -s bin/cake /bin/cake and then I tried typing "cake", but it says cake is not installed
[23:28] <fennucci> f6? nope, Phoenix_Silver my toshiba boots so fast, that I dont even get the initial screen where it says press escp for setup and what not
[23:28] <GatunoRox> anyone knows if there's a known reason why after grub, boot would stall at black screen?
[23:28] <Somelauw> What did I do wrong probably?
[23:28] <fennucci> I've been reading lots of bad things on the buntu forms Phoenix_Silver about people having lots of trouble dual bopoting with toshiba laptops
[23:28] <lmojzis> Hi all... I have weird problem. I press volume up on my Gigabyte i1520M and it "stucks" even if it's not pressed... Instead of "Vol+" it does "Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+Vol+" until swiched to another TTY and returned to TTY 7... Do you know how to solve it?
[23:28] <fennucci> How does a virtual box work?
[23:28] <terry_> eshannon: What filesystem is on them?  sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit  #And send resulting URL.
[23:28] <zvacet> jessdog9001: did you tried to install driver from system>additional hardware drivers
[23:29] <jessdog9001> GatunoRox: sounds like the problem I'm having.
[23:29] <fennucci> I have 8gb of ram on my toshiba maybe I should just use a virtual box instead of dual booting
[23:29] <yagoo> GatunoRox, grub wasnt installed.. otherwise u'd see the 'Grub' characters showing stage1 loading
[23:29] <Somelauw> Since everythin in /bin can be launched by typing it, can't it?
[23:29] <terry_> fennucci: Like a charm....
[23:29] <yagoo> GatunoRox, or u installed grub the wrong location
[23:29] <jessdog9001> zvacet: No proprietary drivers are available for my card (too old), so it has to use the open source drivers. But they stopped working with 10.10
[23:29] <mickster04> fennucci: this isn't really the place to be asking for help with virtual box, we can help with ubuntu specific problems
[23:29] <bercik_> is Schockwave plugin available for Linux?
[23:29] <heslam> hey guys. not sure if this is the right place. i'm having problems setting up my network (using ubuntu on my desktop - relevent enough? :P) and my gateway is is <IP_ADDRESS> and it's giving my PC an internal IP of <IP_ADDRESS>. they're not the same, right? is <IP_ADDRESS> shorthand for <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS>?

Do you know how to solve it? (BUMPing)
[23:30] <neverblue> still, no FTP connection
[23:30] <zvacet> fennucci: if you trying to install ubuntu in vbox it should work
[23:30] <bercik_> Logan_: thanks
[23:30] <Logan_> bercik_: you're welcome
[23:30] <nit-wit> GatunoRox, can you run this script and pastebin it.  http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[23:30] <neverblue> i thought the proftpd config would be straightforward O_o

[23:31] <zvacet> jessdog9001: I don´t know maybe try to install radeon driver from synaptic
[23:31] <gregL> jessdog9001, Try System administration and additional drivers and see if there is a more current driver..
[23:31] <terry_> eshannon: What filesystem is on them?  sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit  #And send resulting URL.
[23:31] <yagoo> Somelauw, you don't need to make symlinks in /usr/local/bin .. u can make sure ~/bin is in PATH if this is what u want

[23:33] <lmojzis> yagoo: This is built in KB in Gygabyte i1520M
[23:33] <DroidDestroyer> is ubuntu supporting the new development of a XOrg Replacement?
[23:33] <Somelauw> I want to install a manually downloaded program and its instruction was to symlink a file to the path.

[23:36] <zvacet> jessdog9001: sorry that is all I can think off
[23:36] <yagoo> detrix42, maybe a related usb-boot howto document can be applied to sd
[23:36] <DroidDestroyer> cool :)
[23:36] <jessdog9001> zvacet: thanks for the help anyway
[23:36] <Phoenix_Silver> unetbootin
[23:36] <mr_orange_> If I enable logging on ufw does that information get saved somewhere?
[23:36] <jessdog9001> zvacet: I am now considering which distro to try next since Ubuntu isn't working out
[23:36] <zvacet> jessdog9001: well, I was not much of help
[23:36] <yagoo> DroidDestroyer, 10.10 just cameout.. so i'm guessing like in 6 months
[23:36] <terry_> eshannon: They are plugged in via USB adapters / cables?
[23:37] <xangua> detrix42: try unetbootin, i supose it works the same way usb boot
[23:37] <GatunoRox> nit-wit: http://paste.ideaslabs.com/show/iqwpgetMaz
[23:37] <lmojzis> !ping
[23:37] <zvacet> jessdog9001: stick with mint if that works for you
[23:37] <Phoenix_Silver> yes detrix42 unetbootin works fine
[23:37] <Mamo_ya> mm
[23:37] <TimR> mr_orange_, yes, in /var/log/ufw.log
[23:37] <eshannon> no they are all plugged insata and the 2 I am looking for are 2 TB
[23:37] <MK`> when my laptop is plugged in and I click to look at the battery percentage, it says "Estimating..." but never updates. How can I fix this?
[23:37] <MK`> the moment the battery begins discharging it is fixed
[23:37] <jessdog9001> zvacet: well, I left Mint because I disliked many things. and it was too slow on my hardware. Ubuntu seems faster, even without the graphic acceleration, but then other things don't work
[23:38] <KamiKazeKenji> Does anyone know how to edit totem's config?
[23:38] <mickster04> MK`: well if you are plugged in it won't work out how lon gis left because it will be infinite as long as the power supply is good?
[23:38] <mr_orange_> TimR what kind of information will that show me exactly?
[23:38] <eshannon> terry_ I Have 1.5 TB, 400Gig, 2 2 TB drives on this Box plugged in sata
[23:38] <nit-wit> GatunoRox, hold on I see the paste
[23:38] <yagoo> MK`, it sounds more like a problem with the gui app.. i bet the battery starts charging even if the gui icon doesnt imply it is
[23:38] <Jon--> Does ubuntu handle batteries well? If I leave a lithium ion battery at 100% with the AC adepter plugged in, am I losing charge cycles or is it smart enough to then use pure AC power?
[23:39] <MK`> Maybe. I wanted to know how close it is to being full. The icon tells me when it's full, heh
[23:39] <TimR> mr_orange_, as far as I can tell, it shows you what ufw has blocked
[23:39] <MK`> just not the dialog
[23:39] <mickster04> Jon--: thats a physical thing, nothing to do with the OS usually
[23:39] <yagoo> Jon--, it's a hardware thing..
[23:39] <sione> hello, an external monitor is plugued into my laptop, when I start my laptop when the lid is closed, with ubuntu, something detect automaticly that the lid is closed, then it choose the external monitor as a principal screen... but not with archlinux
[23:39] <sione> someone knows something about that ?
[23:39] <lmojzis> !ping
[23:39] <Jon--> The acpi drivers don't impact this?
[23:39] <Starminn> KamiKazeKenji: A 2-second Google search revealed the location of the files: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305738 if that's what you're looking for (which iirc is what you asked about earlier)
[23:39] <mickster04> MK`: the dialog shows you how much time is left roughly
[23:39] <MK`> Ah.
[23:39] <Starminn> lmojzis: Stop that.
[23:39] <MK`> I see.
[23:39] <mr_orange_> TimR, does it show ip address and port and type of packet?
[23:40] <Jon--> I asked because I burned through my last battery fast..
[23:40] <sione> what can detect if the lid if closed before the boot, then choosing the external monitor as a principal monitor on ubuntu ?
[23:40] <sione> is*
[23:40] <yagoo> Jon--, acpi helps Oses what is in the devicetree
[23:40] <mickster04> Jon--: yeah no, it is a hardware thing
[23:40] <nit-wit> GatunoRox, do you have the sdb hd dfirst to be read in the bios
[23:40] <GatunoRox> yep
[23:40] <TimR> mr_orange_, it sure does, just try looking at the file, it is rather neatly formatted
[23:40] <KamiKazeKenji> Thank you, Starminn, but gconf does not provide what I am looking for.
[23:40] <stolen_nick> exit
[23:40] <mickster04> sione: so nothing is wrong with ubuntu?
[23:40] <Phoenix_Silver> you can use reiserfs with hdd > 2 teras
[23:40] <GatunoRox> number 1 priority, you mean
[23:41] <yagoo> Jon--, if u dont have powerthrottling for ur pc, or hd then ur laptop will run at full speed
[23:41] <mr_orange_> TimR thank you, I haven't enable it yet
[23:41] <TimR> I see
[23:41] <DrekAlots> Does pptp in ubuntu require pppd?
[23:41] <Jon--> yagoo, That wasn't my question, but thanks ;)
[23:41] <KamiKazeKenji> What I am trying to do is change how much seconds it jumps when I press the arrow keys.

[23:42] <nit-wit> GatunoRox, boot a live cd and reload grub to the mbr with this link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202  the script loks good so I think grub2 just got borked in there somewhere

[23:45] <terry_> eshannon: Also fsck -N /dev/sdd  and fsck -N /dev/sdc
[23:45] <yagoo> Somelauw, well the "ln" command is for making symlinks..

[23:47] <pooltable> to run a game on wii
[23:47] <lmojzis> +ENV{DMI_VENDOR}=="Dell Inc.", ATTR{[dmi/id]product_name}=="Studio 1557", RUN+="keyboard-force-release.sh $devpath dell-studio-1557"
[23:47] <lmojzis> but with my model
[23:47] <Somelauw> I think that when using ln the paths need to be absolute whereas I was symlinking a relative path.
[23:47] <pooltable> use acetoneiso
[23:47] <mouse> I have a concern with the linux/unix file system.  With how file naming works and new software coming out everyday isn't it just a matter of time before one program installs it's files over another's and messes things up?  For example two programs writing different executables to the same location with the same file name?  That's obviously a rookie mistake but isn't that cause for concern?
[23:47] <yagoo> lmojzis, can u paste the source document to this site? (just the url)
[23:47] <terry_> eshannon: Looks like sdd1 is mounted rw /dev/sdd1 on /media/2tb disk2 type ext2 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks), and so is sdb /dev/sdb1 on /media/232dd3b4-f56b-4007-ac29-3f9ca1fbc60d type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks), sdc doesn't seem to be mounted.  So, you tell me why you can not write to them.  Have  you tried?
[23:48] <Jessica632> errr... i just loaded ubuntu 10.??.  Do I need VNC4SERVER or is there already a VNC server built in?  Gnome remote desktop server?
[23:48] <mouse> That was longer than I thought it would be.
[23:48] <Somelauw> yagoo: I think that when using ln the paths need to be absolute whereas I was symlinking a relative path.
[23:48] <mickster04> mouse: how likely is that?
[23:48] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> how do i install vbox on 11.04?
[23:48] <TimR> mr_orange_, that would be in bytes
[23:48] <yagoo> lmojzis, i worded that badly.. just the url u can paste.. so i can see what that udev stuff is
[23:48] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> is it supported yet?
[23:48] <pooltable> where in 11.4?
[23:48] <Phoenix_Silver> one thing i never found in ubuntu in which files do i have to put interface bridges ?
[23:48] <pooltable> likw to try slao
[23:48] <mickster04> mouse: that is just as likely in windows?
[23:48] <kdub> mouse: the package manager can detect that, and its up to the package maintainers to resolve anything like that
[23:48] <pooltable> also
[23:48] <Somelauw> So the symlink was actually invalid.
[23:48] <mr_orange_> TimR ok thank you for your help
[23:48] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> pooltable: what do u mean?
[23:48] <kdub> plus, like mickster04 said, its unlikely
[23:48] <mickster04> !who pooltable
[23:48] <Jordan_U> mouse: There are already pieces of software that have the same name normally but whose binary has been renamed when they were packaged for Debian/Ubuntu to avoid conflict.
[23:48] <mickster04> !who | pooltable
[23:48] <terry_> eshannon: As we can see on: http://pastebin.com/zXFFh9uC  they are mounted rw (read/write), so I don't see why you can not write to them.
[23:49] <pooltable> where is 11.4  ?
[23:49] <Gaming4JC> Anyone mind helping me with setting up stunnel4? I just installed it, edited the stunnel.conf and set it uncommented out the clien=1. It's now giving me error... SSL tunnels disabled, see /etc/default/stunnel4
[23:49] <neverblue> yagoo,Phoenix: ports are open, 20and21 and a range 41000-41100
[23:49] <mickster04> !11.04
[23:49] <Pici> pooltable: #ubuntu+1
[23:49] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> thanks
[23:49] <Jordan_U> mouse: That's the nice thing about having one repository managed by a single pseudo organization to be sure things play nice together.
[23:49] <dmachine> hi
[23:49] <neverblue> yagoo, Phoenix: any other ideas ?
[23:49] <pooltable> pici not beta
[23:49] <yagoo> neverblue, the NAT server needs to allow it.. problem is the nat server
[23:49] <Pici> pooltable: Yes it is.
[23:49] <lmojzis> yagoo: It was guy from #ubuntu-cz who told be this...
[23:49] <neverblue> yagoo, could you explain further ?
[23:50] <Phoenix_Silver> group problem neverblue ?
[23:50] <lmojzis> *me
[23:50] <pooltable> pici no sorry i looking for final version
[23:50] <Pici> pooltable: It will be out on April 28th.
[23:50] <mouse> Jordan_U, Ah I didn't think of that.  Still though that could end up being an awful large workload if it had to be done manually.
[23:50] <pooltable> pici ok thanks
[23:50] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: i can connect, but it drops the connection immediately. I am not able to isolate what the issue is exactly. How could I -see- it that is the issue ?
[23:50] <pooltable> pici and you run beta in VB ?
[23:50] <Jessica632> does gnome remote desktop use or need vnc4server?  Is it it's own VNC server?
[23:51] <Pici> pooltable: I believe so
[23:51] <Phoenix_Silver> have you seen in the logs neverblue ?
[23:51] <mohamed-ragab> i have an error "sudo apt-get -t testing install php5=5.2.14" get "E: Version '5.2.14' for 'php5' was not found"
[23:51] <red2kic> Jessica632: vino (name of VNC server for Gnome Desktop)
[23:51] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: seen what ?
[23:51] <MK`> Hm, even after I restart, looking at / properties says the disk has 128 TB on it. Is this a (known) bug?
[23:52] <pooltable> pici is the release always at the end ot the month i thought 10.10 was in the start of the month ?
[23:52] <yagoo> lmojzis, do u get "reset" in dmesg ?, try hitting the key.. then after in another tty do "dmesg" .. see if anything "reset" is related to the keyboard
[23:52] <Jessica632> red2kic, so, is having vnc4server running as a process just redundant?
[23:52] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> sorry, i have another question...
[23:52] <Pici> pooltable: Usually, 10.10 was special, they wanted to do 10.10.10
[23:52] <gary_inNYC> is there a way to block IM spam in Empathy?
[23:52] <eshannon> terry_ yes I have tried if I right click to create a folder the option is greyed out. I tried to copy a file over and says error
[23:52] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> how do i install a tar.gz?
[23:52] <pooltable> pici i see
[23:52] <Jordan_U> mouse: It's probably one of the least common and easier to solve problems with integration.
[23:52] <red2kic> Jessica632: I'm not sure. I don't use VNC myself but I knew vino/vinagre is VNC packages for Gnome.
[23:52] <PatrickC_Ubuntu> im use to windows....
[23:52] <Phoenix_Silver> should be written in the logs neverblue the error sorry bu
[23:52] <MK`> .tar.gz is an archive, like .zip
[23:52] <Phoenix_Silver> should be written in the logs neverblue the error sorry but i don't use proftpd
[23:52] <xangua> !compile | PatrickC_Ubuntu
[23:52] <lmojzis> yagoo: let us go PM, this is jungle...
[23:52] <terry_> eshannon: What error?  (What does it say?)
[23:52] <gary_inNYC> I want to block every IM except those coming from my contact list in Empathy.  Can this be done?
[23:53] <Jessica632> red, tyvm
[23:53] <dwarder> how do i change default editor
[23:53] <dwarder> sudo update-alternatives –config editor
[23:53] <dwarder> doesnt seem to work
[23:53] <mouse> Jordan_U, Now I'm curious.  What's the most common?
[23:53] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: there is no error in the logs, as the user connects
[23:53] <pooltable> pici what the channel for beta again ?
[23:53] <Pici> pooltable: #ubuntu+1
[23:53] <red2kic> dwarder: You copied and pasted. Try --config
[23:53] <xangua> gary_inNYC: pidgin can with privacy please plugin
[23:53] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: the error is only displayed to the client
[23:53] <Logan_> !pm | lmojzis
[23:53] <dwarder> red2kic: same
[23:53] <Phoenix_Silver> and what is the error in the client ? neverblue
[23:54] <dwarder> red2kic: update-alternatives: error: unknown argument `–-config'
[23:54] <gary_inNYC> xangua: ic, thx
[23:54] <lmojzis> Logan But this is very hard to read...
[23:54] <red2kic> dwarder: My usual method (Gnome). Right-click a file and change properties.  Also, two dash, not that weird long dash.
[23:54] <Jordan_U> mouse: I don't know off hand.
[23:54] <sione> When I plug an external monitor into my laptop, then start ubuntu live CD, ubuntu seems to give priority to the external monitor instead of the monitor of the laptop, why ?
[23:54] <Gaming4JC> Jessica632: I don't use VNC myself, but this is the software installed on ubuntu. http://people.gnome.org/~markmc/remote-desktop.html
[23:54] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: i belive we are just going in circles, I post the error, to which you initially replied, it was 'PORT command failed'
[23:54]  * Gaming4JC struggles with stunnel4
[23:55] <dwarder> red2kic: i want my svn to open vim instead of nano :|
[23:55] <pooltable> pici i not sure if you can anser this i might add 2gb of ram total 4gb in my computer will i need to instal 64 bit version of ubuintu ?
[23:55] <mouse> Jordan_U, Well thank you.  I've been curious about that for a little bit.  It's good to see you're still around btw.
[23:55] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: as you don't use proftpd, i am unsure why you are helping, if you have no idea what Ia m talking about, allow me the opportunity to discuss my issue with others
[23:55] <navatwo> Hi, I'm trying to create a live usb for upgrading my desktop, but every way I've tried, its failed to boot off of it. It does not go to a prompt, but just says "Loading operating system...\nBoot Error."
[23:55] <red2kic> dwarder: Try "export EDITOR=vim"
[23:56] <eshannon> terry_ an error while copying permission denied
[23:56] <kryl> I have a problem with ubuntu (maverick) I don't understand why since last upgrade I can't mount ntfs partition and I have no error logs ! that's curious ! do u have any return ?
[23:56] <red2kic> dwarder: If that worked, add that to ~/.bashrc
[23:56] <EmuAlert> This is a kind of weird question, but what's the hexadecimal color usually used for brackets?
[23:56] <cipher_> EmuAlert: Google it :p
[23:56] <Starminn> EmuAlert: In what program? It probably varies for each one.
[23:56] <dwarder> red2kic: thanks
[23:57] <cipher_> EmuAlert: {0\color} ?
[23:57] <terry_> eshannon: Try from CLI.  i.e. touch /media/2tb/testfile
[23:57] <cipher_> \0*
[23:57] <neverblue> can someone else help me troubleshoot proftpd, i have a PORT command failed error, i have the required ports configured in the .conf and open
[23:58] <eshannon> terry_ touch: cannot touch `/media/2tb/testfile': No such file or directory
[23:58] <pooltable> emualert hexadecimal number, using #RRGGBB format ... while the brackets on the rgb() are regular brackets.
[23:58] <Phoenix_Silver> in my idea neverblue you have to forward your passive ports in the firewall :)
[23:58] <Phoenix_Silver> 40000 something neverblue
[23:58] <neverblue> Phoenix_Silver: which I have done
[23:58] <Phoenix_Silver> erf oki neverblue
[23:58] <cipher_> how can i set a directory to be +rw for any user?
[23:59] <EmuAlert> pooltable: Well I meant that when you see text  with syntax highlighting, if the brackets are colored, they're usually some shade of green
[23:59] <neverblue> cipher_: perhaps you mean all users?
[23:59] <neverblue> not any user
[23:59] <cipher_> Indeed
[23:59] <terry_> eshannon: mount |grep 2tb
[23:59] <eshannon> terry_ I can create a folder if I use root
[23:59] <Phoenix_Silver> have changed the mode active or passive neverblue ?
[23:59] <terry_> eshannon: but it said "No such file or directory...
