[20:39] <zykotick9_> Anon42, perhaps it's not codec but "video out" you need to change?  In a terminal try "mplayer -vo x11 foo" as see if that plays.

[20:53] <auronandace> ahhhunity: sorry, i don't use unity, i use xfce, but this is the right channel to ask in :)
[20:54] <kimma> that is really annoying doing a fresh installation each half year
[20:54] <TorbenBeta> Gump, I do not like it either.
[20:54] <Gump> auronandace, please please please tell me xubuntu is better than this bullshit
[20:54] <DasEi> Gump: good call for #ubuntu-offtopic, for sure you're not alone, but mind :
[20:54] <DasEi> !best
[20:54] <zykotick9_> ahhhunity, i don't think i've ever opened that preferences/windows before - but your right, the option is in there for alt vs super.  Hope you find a solution in ubuntu.
[20:54] <Gump> i feel like i'm trying to use the iOS or something on my laptop
[20:54] <Gump> this is pretty bad. sorry i'll quit ranting :p

[20:55] <auronandace> Gump: i've never liked gnome (both 2 and 3) and i don't like unity, xfce is my favourite (to each his own i guess)

[20:56] <DasEi> rokia : ?
[20:56] <DasEi> !gnome3 | Gump
[20:56] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, depends who owns the file user/group.  you could use "chmod 777 foo" to give everyone read/write/execute
[20:57] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, only execute .
[20:57] <Gump> damn. i may be switching back to debian
[20:57] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, is the file owned by root:root?
[20:57] <Siegel-> DasEi: could you maybe help me figure out the problem with my printer driver?
[20:57] <DasEi> Gump: can do, or use lubuntu,xubuntu..

[20:58] <DasEi> Siegel-: can try, haven't read you yet, so repeat, maybe check before :

[20:58] <Anon42> I'm giving up on installing codecs...
[20:58] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, then other is required, use "chmod o+x foo"
[20:58] <imbezol> what was the difference between ubuntu and xubuntu before unity?
[20:58] <Anon42> BarkingFish: could you make it for me with Teamviewer?
[20:58] <DasEi> rokia: cause you gave the command, as man wget will tell you what it does
[20:58] <zykotick9_> imbezol, ubuntu used Gnome, Xubuntu uses XFCE.
[20:58] <imbezol> or is xubuntu xfce?
[20:59] <auronandace> imbezol: what is the difference between xfce and gnome?
[20:59] <Wietienkie> I have a hardware issue with the 10.04 server
[20:59] <Gump> yeah i believe so imbezol
[20:59] <robinson> how can I reset default window sizes in 11.10? Certain windows open up HUGE for some reason
[20:59] <imbezol> oh, so where's the gubuntu?
[20:59] <DasEi> !xubuntu > imbezol
[20:59] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, what changes this? Or does chmod have a good man page?
[20:59] <Siegel-> DasEi: no problem. i have a brother mfc-5460cn which worked prefectly before upgrading to 11.10. i had the drivers installed before for printer/fax/scanner it worked. now it wont. it tells me im missing the driver when i connect the printer. idownloaded the lpr and cups driver. when i try to intall them it says :: no such file or directory (to the file name)
[20:59] <imbezol> it's like we lost ubuntu and it got replaced with poobuntu
[20:59] <Wietienkie> there's 6GB ram in the server, but the os only detects 3GB
[20:59] <Wietienkie> and yes, it's x86_64
[20:59] <rokia> DasEi: ok , i ll do it , thanks
[20:59] <stainofpain> why cant I connect to any samaba shares on the server from my win7 box - I can connect using the account that was created during server installation but no other accounts
[20:59] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, sorry i don't understand your question.  But yes, "man chomd" is probably helpful.
[21:00] <auronandace> imbezol: feel free not to use unity, no-one is forcing you
[21:00] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, what changes the command( "chmod o+x foo") or what does the command do.
[21:00] <zakidine> hi everyone

[21:01] <auronandace> imbezol: i'm glad i stick to xfce
[21:01] <zykotick9_> imbezol, ubuntu's change to unity made me switch to debian (but there are many other distros out there)
[21:02] <imbezol> zykotick9_: yeah. i'm looking at mint
[21:02] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, thank you.

[21:03] <DasEi> Siegel-: sudo apt-get install  system-config-printer-gnome cups &&  system-config-printer-gnome
[21:03] <hexacode> hey you guys i need help with regular expression syntax.. pls /msg me the answer   its probably fairly simple this one http://pastebin.com/46FgdGqG
[21:04] <Siegel-> DasEi: i did that and it opened a window of adding a printer. but i dont see my printer listed anywhere.
[21:04] <Anon42> zykotick9_:  with which command?
[21:04] <badapple> usr13, are you here man ?
[21:04] <w30> TorbenBeta, best way is to make a special group; make the user a member and then chown to root.specialgroup <the file> . Make the file has group execute permission
[21:04] <badapple> usr13, sorry for my network
[21:04] <zykotick9_> Anon42, never mind.  Good luck.
[21:04] <zakidine> how can i write n on ubuntu? i'm using a french keyboard
[21:05] <zakidine> :Q
[21:05] <DasEi> Siegel-: printer attached n running , oc, then sudo service cups restart (you installed the wrapper, as you said ?!)
[21:05] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok i chose it
[21:05] <Anon42> zykotick9_:  :D
[21:05] <Siegel-> DasEi: no wi chose it from "brother"...
[21:05] <zakidine> f...
[21:05] <Anon42> zykotick9_:  could you do it for me with teamviewer?
[21:05] <Siegel-> DasEi: its printing a test page.
[21:05] <DasEi> Siegel-: congrats
[21:05] <Siegel-> DasEi: it seemed to work, thanks that was easy! i need help with the fax/scanner drivers though.
[21:05] <BarkingFish> zakidine, there's no letter n on your keyboard?
[21:05] <Siegel-> DasEi: youre cool :D
[21:05] <zykotick9_> Anon42, assuming you use ubuntu - have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras?  that should get divx working.
[21:06] <zykotick9_> Anon42, teamviewer sorry no.
[21:06] <zakidine> BarkingFish,  no i have to do the AltGr ~ +n
[21:06] <dryicebomb> hexacode: http://www.linuxinsight.com/how_to_grep_for_ip_addresses_using_the_gnu_egrep_utility.html
[21:06] <Anon42> zykotick9_:   yup... didn't worked
[21:06] <zakidine> works on windows, but not on this .. ubuntu
[21:06] <DasEi> Siegel-: sudo apt-get install sane for scanner, brb, other box calling me
[21:06] <starZ> Hi --- do you know how to update asus eeepc 1015PN bios version to 701 with ubuntu ??
[21:06] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok ill try that.
[21:06] <morri>  Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" is that of any significance , or anything that should worry me, or do I need it?
[21:07] <hexacode> dryicebomb: thanks
[21:07] <dryicebomb> hexacode: no prob ;)
[21:07] <Siegel-> DasEi: did that, cant locate package. ill wait till youre back
[21:07] <Zylum> splash screen displays improper resolution during boot, the grub menu looks good but after that I get a bad resolution, can anyone help?
[21:08] <BarkingFish> zakidine, you want the n with the tilde, as is used in Spanish?
[21:08] <dbugger> Hey guys. Is there any way to enable webgl for Chromium under Ubuntu?
[21:08] <renemoraes> hello everyone... i was reading about the new kernel 3.1 ... does it solve the nvidia optimus problem?
[21:08] <hammerhand> hej! does anyone know a good shell script for reading twitter?
[21:08] <ectabyte> can anyone help me installing gnome-shell extensions? I've copied what I want to .local/share/gnome-shell/extensions and restarted but nothing has changed
[21:09] <zakidine> yes
[21:09] <zakidine> exactly
[21:09] <zykotick9_> BarkingFish, if you are using AMD/Nvidia proprietary graphics drivers - low resolution plymouth is "normal" but fixable (if you REALLY want, I don't personally understand the need - but I have done it in the past)
[21:09] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, now it does not work anymore
[21:09] <zykotick9_> Zylum, ^
[21:09] <ank> root
[21:10] <frenocha> is there a way to change super+t from 'open trash' to 'open terminal' in 11.10?
[21:10] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, show the "ls -l filename" for me.
[21:10] <BarkingFish> zakidine, then you are doing it the right way.  You would need the compose key or AltGr, + ~ +n - it's a combination letter
[21:10] <BarkingFish> I have my compose key set to Left Win, which I press first, then the tilde, then the letter n or N
[21:11] <LIM> I am using 11.10 (upgraded from 11.04) and cannot get usb drives to mount (says Not Authorized!) and I also cannot edit user accounts (System policy prevents changes).  It all used to work in 11.04, what am I missing in configuration to allow me (yes I'm in the admin group) to do this stuff now?
[21:11] <zakidine> BarkingFish,  that's what i'm doing
[21:11] <zakidine> just like on windows
[21:11] <zakidine> but the ffffffffff.. doesnt work on ubuntu
[21:11] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, that's read/write/execute for everyone
[21:11] <BarkingFish> then that is the correct way, zakidine - on windows it's available as an ALT + 4 digit code
[21:11] <zakidine> damn im pissed off
[21:12] <BarkingFish> zakidine, i understand your frustration, please moderate your language though :)
[21:12] <conntrack> don't get mad. get even
[21:12] <mang0> I'm attempting to learn PHP, and am following this tutorial to set up a dev env: http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorial/a-simple-debian-based-dev-environment but it doesn't work....from sudo chown :www /var/www, because that dir doesn't exist..confused, please help :)
[21:12] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_,  now it gives this error back:'bash: ./BYOB.image: cannot execute binary file'
[21:13] <dryicebomb> mang0: have you installed apache2 and php?
[21:13] <BarkingFish> so zakidine - what do you mean "ffffffffff" doesn't work?
[21:13] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, how are you running it?  "./BYOB.image"?
[21:13] <mang0> dryicebomb: Nope, I'm trying too....
[21:13] <mang0> I've got no idea where to start
[21:13] <TorbenBeta> With terminal: yes. In GUI: with a double click.
[21:14] <auronandace> BarkingFish: he is barely avoiding swearing
[21:14] <dryicebomb> mang0: sudo apt-get install apache2 php5
[21:14] <BarkingFish> auronandace, ah.
[21:14] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, are you using 64bit ubuntu?
[21:14] <BarkingFish> I understand, thanks for that auronandace :)
[21:14] <mang0> dryicebomb: And then do that tutorial?
[21:14] <ruben23> hi I installed ubuntu server with asterisk
[21:15] <camden> am I the only one that thinks this is the most disastrously buggy ubuntu ever?
[21:15] <dryicebomb> mang0: yes, that will install the webserver on your machine with php support. then you should be able to view your projects
[21:15] <bastidrazor> Cam, yes, you're the only one.
[21:15] <ruben23> how do i Send a traceroute?
[21:15] <bastidrazor> camden, ^
[21:15] <Cam> Pardon?
[21:15] <TorbenBeta> 32 bits.
[21:15] <rokia> i want to add a theme , so i download one from Xfce-look.org, and i find on the internet that there is this path 'Menu XFCE -> parameters  xfce -> user interface' to add the theme that we have just downloaded. but i can't find this in  the menu xfce ??
[21:15] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_,
[21:15] <camden> :( I upgraded from an 11.04 system that was working very well, to a mostly broken 11.10.
[21:15] <ruben23> 32bit
[21:15] <What> Hi! Could you tell me what is wtrong with new lubuntu. I cannot install it through wubi, tha is, when I start wubi there is no option for instaling lubuntu, just ubunut, kubuntu etc. Also when I tray to boot it, I only get to the lubuntu screen and that's it.
[21:15] <mang0> dryicebomb: Great, thanks. I'm also following this: http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/PHP/php1p2.html would I need to follow that first tutorial to be able to continue with that?
[21:15] <frenocha> camden: try a fresh installation :)
[21:16] <camden> that suuuucks
[21:16] <ruben23> I need to Send a traceroute, how?
[21:16] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, are we talking about this http://byob.berkeley.edu/#download is so, did you try the DEB file?
[21:16] <BarkingFish> ruben23, you send a traceroute from your terminal, using traceroute <url or ip you want to check> - you may need to sudo apt-get install traceroute  first though.
[21:16] <BarkingFish> don't put the < and > though, just the url or ip
[21:17] <What> Hi! Could you tell me what is wtrong with new lubuntu. I cannot install it through wubi, tha is, when I start wubi there is no option for instaling lubuntu, just ubunut, kubuntu etc. Also when I tray to boot it, I only get to the lubuntu screen and that's it.
[21:17] <TorbenBeta> Yes. It worked fine until I used the command which you gave me.
[21:17] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_,
[21:17] <BarkingFish> !patience | What
[21:17] <usr13> camden: Downgrading is not supported here but http://askubuntu.com/questions/49869/how-to-roll-back-ubuntu-11-10-to-11-04
[21:17] <What> ok ubottu
[21:18] <DasEi> Siegel-: sudo apt-get install xsane for scanner
[21:18] <DasEi> !brain > What
[21:18] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, to undo what i gave you just run "chmod o-x BYOB.image" but that just removes the OTHER group from executing
[21:18] <Siegel-> DasEi: i have xsane installed. i tried opening it and it detected no device
[21:18] <usr13> camden: Why did you go to 11.10 in the first place?
[21:18] <camden> usr13: I dunno, I shouldn't have
[21:18] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, or should I just install it anew?
[21:18] <Siegel-> DasEi: maybe i need to upgrade xsane?
[21:19] <badapple> usr13, sorry for my network can you help me again ? :/
[21:19] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, well, i doubt running my "chmod o-x BYOB.image" is going to do anything...
[21:19] <zakidine> BarkingFish,  yes, i'm sorry, i just hate when simple things do not work on ubuntu
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> Siegel-: Siegel- in a terminal, type scanimage -L => does it find something?
[21:19] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, if it is ruined, let's have fun :-).
[21:19] <zakidine> and i'm kinda emotional :$
[21:19] <DasEi> Siegel-: additional install install sane-utils and xsane-common , to update sys : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[21:19] <dryicebomb> mang0: i would follow this one first, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/installing-php5-and-apache-on-ubuntu/ then maybe check this one out, this is where i first started dabling with php, http://php.about.com/od/troubleshooting/u/php_basics_tab.htm
[21:20] <zakidine> especialy when guys on the french room do not want to help :/
[21:20] <Siegel-> DasEi: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[21:20] <BarkingFish> zakidine, you tried #ubuntu-fr and they wouldn't help you?
[21:20] <conntrack> zakidine: is that an onion joke?
[21:20] <ruben23>  BarkingFish, I installed traceroute. Thank you
[21:20] <TorbenBeta> Time to run it anew.
[21:20] <BarkingFish> you're welcome, ruben23 :)
[21:20] <MonkeyDust> Siegel-: have you tried scanimage -L ?
[21:21] <zakidine> it's not a joke
[21:21] <DasEi> Siegel-: sudo apt-get install  sane-utils  xsane-common -y && sudo apt-get update -y  && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
[21:21] <Siegel-> DasEi: i did scanimage -L =>
[21:21] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, sorry man, but i don't see how what I gave you could have "broken" it...
[21:21] <Siegel-> wait im downloading updates
[21:21] <conntrack> zakidine: when did the french ever help anyone?
[21:21] <zakidine> conntrack,  looooool
[21:21] <ruben23> I can't install adobe shockwave player for kubuntu 10
[21:21] <zakidine> nice one
[21:21] <TorbenBeta> zykotick9_, me neither. Should I file a bug report?
[21:21] <TorbenBeta> Or test it again?
[21:22] <Siegel-> DasEi: gonna try that, hold on.
[21:22] <DasEi> y
[21:22] <zykotick9_> TorbenBeta, try again
[21:22] <MonkeyDust> Siegel-: scanimage -L, without the arrow :)
[21:22] <xangua> ruben23: there is no shockware for linux
[21:22] <Siegel-> MonkeyDust: ooh lolz ok\
[21:23] <BarkingFish> xangua, wrong. There are shockwave plugins for firefox.
[21:23] <BarkingFish> I have one installed right now
[21:23] <usr13> camden: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[21:23] <usr13> badapple: Yes
[21:23] <zykotick9_> xangua, i'm with you - i've never heard of shockware for linux
[21:23] <tahCX> Does anyone know how to disable a plugin in rails?
[21:24] <xangua> BarkingFish: of there is a shockware, not flash plugin, for firefox could you share it with us instead of just telling WRONG¿
[21:24] <marcavis> Huh, my grub now has debian branding, maaaybe after I installed the gnome-shell
[21:24] <Siegel-> DasEi: im updating the system so now its taking a few minutes
[21:24] <marcavis> It's... nowhere near as good-looking and professional as Ubuntu's :|
[21:25] <digz> Hello.
[21:25] <ikonia> marcavis: you know the rules of this channel - this is not ubuntu support discussion
[21:25] <digz> I require urgent assistance.
[21:25] <DasEi> Siegel-: righty, giving you alink in a second, make sure your hybrid is listed there again
[21:25] <DasEi> a link*
[21:25] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok.
[21:25] <ikonia> digz: then ask a question
[21:25] <ethernet-> haillo
[21:25] <digz> I've installed Ubuntu 11.10
[21:25] <digz> And my left click worked in the Live CD
[21:26] <digz> however it's not functional on install.
[21:26] <digz> So now I'm confined to the Live CD, with no OS.
[21:26] <Siegel-> DasEi: result of scanimage -L: http://paste.ubuntu.com/718274/
[21:26] <BarkingFish> xangua, I got mine when I downloaded the flash player through synaptic.  It labels itself as a shockwave plugin.  It does flash and shockwave both, to my knowledge.
[21:27] <xangua> ...
[21:27] <BarkingFish> I didn't mean to imply it was wrong, merely I seen the plugin
[21:27] <BarkingFish> i know you cannot get the actual player though
[21:27] <digz> Anyone?
[21:28] <platius> xangua, firefox about:plugins   Shockwave Flash 11.0 r1
[21:28] <Siegel-> digz: what do you mean? your mouse doesnt work? same happened to me. plugged in a different one and it worked
[21:28] <marcavis> ikonia, no, I don't know the rules. What did I do wrong, there?
[21:28] <ahhhunity> any idea how to change or disable the alt+left click moving of windows? It used to be in system->preferences->windows... You used to be able to change it from alt to super key
[21:28] <digz> Siegel - nope, it's also broken on my laptop trackpad
[21:28] <Siegel-> weird
[21:28] <DasEi> Siegel-: your nick , are you german ?
[21:29] <Siegel-> DasEi: only in spirit :D
[21:29] <mang0> dryicebomb: Great, thanks
[21:29] <Siegel-> DasEi: but siegel is my name
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> digz: in the repos, you find gpointer something, maybe that helps
[21:29] <digz> I'm a total n00b.
[21:29] <digz> It's all greek to me at this stage.
[21:29] <DasEi> siegel: well , can't find the page in english, is why I ask, do you have chromium-browser installed ? it translates n displays fine
[21:30] <Siegel-> DasEi: its fine in german
[21:30] <BarkingFish> digz, it is to most new users of a Linux distro, don't feel alone dude :)
[21:30] <BarkingFish> I was lost coming to kubuntu from another distro, and I been on linux over 10 years!
[21:30] <digz> lol
[21:30] <bluenemo> lol
[21:30] <DasEi> Siegel-: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Brother/Scanner
[21:30] <digz> so barkingfish - do you know what the issue might be?
[21:31] <Siegel-> DasEi: yep i used to have the brscan2
[21:31] <Siegel-> and it worked with it
[21:31] <digz> i.e. my left click works on the live cd, but not on the install.
[21:31] <digz> using 11.10.
[21:31] <BarkingFish> I know it's possible to configure different types of mouse in (k)ubuntu. I know how to do it on mine, but not on ubuntu.
[21:31] <DasEi> Siegel-: there you go then, canon/hp freak here
[21:31] <HorizonXP> what's the fastest way to backup my home directory to another internal HDD? It's 270 GB in size.
[21:32] <BarkingFish> I know there's a config program for touchpads too, but again, not whether it's usable on ubuntu
[21:32] <HorizonXP> would dd be fastest?
[21:32] <Siegel-> DasEi: i type that into terminal?
[21:32] <digz> barkingfish - the thing is, the problem persists on my trackpad.
[21:32] <gast__1> good evening
[21:32] <DasEi> HorizonXP: rsync I'd say
[21:32] <DasEi> Siegel-: no, you follow the link I gave
[21:32] <Siegel-> DasEi: haha ooh you mean youre a canon/hp freak sorry hehe
[21:32] <Siegel-> kk
[21:32] <DasEi> yupp
[21:32] <BarkingFish> Anyone with ubuntu, can you tell me if the Synaptiks package works with ubuntu/gnome please?
[21:32] <HorizonXP> DasEi: I'm "backing up" so that I can format the HDD and do a clean install
[21:32] <LIM> anyone got my Q? I cannot find any answers.  I've been searching for days now.
[21:32] <dmorrison42> HorizonXP: !rsync
[21:33] <HorizonXP> DasEi: my understanding is that rsync is faster on subsequent uses because it won't copy unchanged files
[21:33] <DasEi> HorizonXP: yes, best way then, unless you want a functional image
[21:33] <BarkingFish> and also whether it's possible to move your pointer with keys, rather than your mouse, just so we can get digz some help?
[21:33] <bluenemo> HorizonXP, copy has an update -u switch btw..
[21:33] <DasEi> HorizonXP: right too, as it also uses a better algo than cp
[21:34] <savid> Arrgh,  why isn't my terminal included in my Alt+Tab?
[21:34] <HorizonXP> DasEi: ok, that's enough to convince me, thanks!
[21:34] <DasEi> HorizonXP: -P option is nice to see how long it'll take, -r for subdirs (but one usally needs /home and maybe packet selection just)
[21:34] <samuel_> hi all
[21:35] <digz> thanks barkingfish.
[21:35] <p1ruj3> HorizonXP if configured to do so yes, but not limited to that function or out of the box...
[21:35] <jimmy8888> can somebody suggest a good clipboard manager for unity that supports indicators ? (i have clippit but am not very happy with it)
[21:35] <samuel_> i need help to configur dual screen with a ATI 5970
[21:35] <digz> barkingfish - i can move the mouse fine, just no left clicking.
[21:36] <xangua> jimmy8888: glippy, you can also upload text and images with it ;)
[21:36] <grkblood> whenever I try to use switcheroo to switch me GPU the change NEVER works. this is what happens when i try to swtich to my discrete card. http://pastebin.com/fkHc8FX0 what am i doing wrong?
[21:36] <DasEi> jimmy8888: glipper
[21:36] <DasEi> !info glipper
[21:37] <BarkingFish> digz, hm. Let me have a think, I'm sure there's an alternative on the keyboard to left clicking, just can't remember what it is. GIve me a moment while I google
[21:37] <samuel_> ok, thanks
[21:37] <digz> thanks mate.
[21:37] <jimmy8888> thanks xangua and DasEi: i will give glipper a go first as it is in the normal repos. i believe glippy needs a PPA?
[21:37] <Edisto> thanks reading #8 helped whoever that was =D
[21:38] <DasEi> jimmy8888, xangua: TYPO JUST ?
[21:38] <gast__1> I can't use auto url=domain.tld with yaboot can somebodey help me?
[21:38] <DasEi> err caps
[21:38] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok i get to this point where i need to add two lines to this file: /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules. i can see where i need to add them but the file is "read only" so i cant add the lines and save.
[21:38] <xangua> jimmy8888: just read a new version arived, don't remember if saw it on omgubuntu or webupd8 blog, they always mention programs ppa ;)
[21:39] <Kaigeos> any gamers here?
[21:39] <xangua> !anyone | Kaigeos
[21:39] <p1ruj3> digz: In most applications, you can always right-click on the mouse to access the options menu. On the keyboard, you can simply press Shift + F10 to achieve this ‘right-click‘ effect - perhaps your mouse is setup as left handed... not sure what the left click shortcut is
[21:39] <DasEi> Siegel-: gksu gedit /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules
[21:40] <digz> plruj3 - right click works as it's supposed to
[21:40] <digz> and the mouse moves.
[21:40] <DasEi> Siegel-: now can edit, don't forget saving then
[21:40] <Kaigeos> Ryzom just just made my migration to linux complete. I'm just looking for more games of similar quality.
[21:40] <DasEi> !gksu | Siegel-
[21:40] <BarkingFish> I think I may be able to help you, digz. There's a program for Gnome (or used to be) called Mouse Keys, it was an accessibility thing. Keys 1 2 3 4 6 7 & 8 to move mouse, 5 to left click.
[21:40] <DasEi> or gksudo gedit ..
[21:40] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok cool now im gonna look for the lines
[21:40] <BarkingFish> !info Mouse keys
[21:40] <hexacode> anyone know about google voice?  i want to set up my computer so that when someone calls a phone number, my computer rings instead of a phone
[21:41] <BarkingFish> !info Mouse_keys oneiric
[21:41] <BarkingFish> hm
[21:41] <digz> how would i install it though>
[21:41] <digz> ?
[21:41] <BarkingFish> Anyone know if you still have the mouse keys facility in the latest edition of gnome?
[21:41] <CadeSkywalker> modprobe psmouse proto=exps
[21:41] <imbezol> i wouldn't bother trying to find some graphical mouse simulator
[21:42] <imbezol> that's not going to fix the mouse
[21:42] <jerknextdoor> unity 3d quit working in my user account, but still works in the guest account.
[21:42] <BarkingFish> digz, it may be possible through a terminal, CTRL+ALT+F1, and then you wouldn't need a mouse.
[21:42] <BarkingFish> imbezol, no, but it would give him menu access to open config tools to sort his mouse out :)
[21:42] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok it told me to restart the os, so brb
[21:42] <digz> barkingfish - i tried that, but i couldn't get it to log in
[21:42] <digz> i know, i'm a n00b.
[21:42] <BarkingFish> digz, you should use your own username and password
[21:42] <DasEi> hexacode: there was a way I just miss for direct frequency ; use beep or espeak with a voicefile
[21:43] <digz> i did, but the password wouldn't type
[21:43] <digz> and i got 'login incorrect'.
[21:43] <imbezol> digz: did you try googling this problem?
[21:43] <digz> imbezol - yes, to no avail.
[21:43] <imbezol> digz: seems like the first hit describes how to fix it
[21:43] <BarkingFish> you never see your password, digz - just make sure you type it slowly :)
[21:44] <digz> oh i see.
[21:44] <imbezol> http://www.oyvindhauge.com/blog/2009/03/31/linux-ubuntu-left-mouse-button-mouse1-not-working-propperly/
[21:44] <BarkingFish> if it still doesn't work, you may have something a little deeper.
[21:44] <digz> Barkingfish - It may be that, it didn't work when i tried it on a Xubuntu live CD earlier either.
[21:45] <Siegel-> DasEi: kk im back
[21:45] <BarkingFish> digz, in the terminals, your password is never echoed in any way, you have to type it slowly and it is case sensitive.
[21:45] <digz> imbezol - that's not my problem at all.
[21:45] <digz> barkingfish - thanks, noted.
[21:45] <crimscx> hey how do i register for #python?
[21:45] <DasEi> Siegel-: did you d/l and installed the deb as provided earlier in that wiki ?
[21:45] <Siegel-> DasEi: working on it now
[21:45] <DasEi> !register | crimscx
[21:45] <BarkingFish> crimscx, it's a registered user only channel. You have to register an account on freenode first.
[21:46] <DasEi> crimscx: such quests are nice for #freenode
[21:46] <minimec_> BarkingFish: digz: Try to login in unity2d mode. Did you install any additional 'property' gpu driver. That might have f...ed up your mouse support...
[21:46] <m_> Hi
[21:46] <digz> minimec - i didn't install anything
[21:46] <digz> apart from ubuntu itself.
[21:46] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok it tells me i need brscan2, but this page doesnt tell me the command to install it. i have it downloaded, its saved already from the first time i downloaded it
[21:47] <m_> how can i turn off disk utlitly service?
[21:47] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd to where it's lying
[21:47] <BarkingFish> digz - What type of mouse is it? USB or PS/2?
[21:47] <Siegel-> DasEi: what do you mean?
[21:47] <digz> barkingfish - USB in a laptop
[21:47] <digz> the problem persists on the trackpad.
[21:47] <DasEi> m_: you mean fsck ?
[21:47] <m_> BRB <minute
[21:48] <minimec_> digz: ok. still Try to use another session with unity2d (some kind of fallback option for your desktop environment). Just check, if 'left click' is working like that...
[21:48] <p1ruj3> digz do youhave another mouse to try?
[21:48] <odin_> I have not used launchpad before, I have installed some version of Ubuntu in vmware to test integration, is there a default set of package I should install ?  like meta packages "development tools" or something ?
[21:48] <DasEi> Siegel-: where is the deb d/l'ed ?
[21:48] <BarkingFish> p1ruj3, it's not his mouse that is at fault, the problem is in his trackpad too. Neither will left click
[21:48] <digz> plruj3 - no, but my trackpad's left click is also non-functional.
[21:49] <DasEi> Siegel-: Dessktop ?
[21:49] <digz> also it worked fine in windows
[21:49] <Siegel-> DasEi: its in downloads. in a folder in downloads.
[21:49] <digz> and in live cd (which i'm now stuck in)
[21:49] <Siegel-> DasEi: the folder is called "drivers"
[21:49] <m_> Desei i have another hard disk and when i put him > from linux thay always open windows DISk utilty
[21:49] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd ~/Downlaods/drivers
[21:49] <DasEi> Siegel-: ls
[21:49] <epop> can someone tell me where i specify the kernel being loaded?  I don't seem to have grub/grub2/lilo installed (10.10 server upgraded to 11.04)
[21:49] <DasEi> Siegel-: see it there ?
[21:49] <BarkingFish> digz, just a thought, do you have any configuration options in your bios for legacy USB devices?
[21:50] <Siegel-> DasEi: do i type this into terminal?
[21:50] <DasEi> y
[21:50] <odin_> maybe there is a lanchpad channel ?
[21:50] <digz> barkingfish - i have no idea
[21:50] <BarkingFish> my USB mouse wouldn't work until I set my USB Legacy support to Enabled
[21:50] <BarkingFish> but then, my PC is pretty old
[21:50] <p1ruj3> digz try disabling the trackpad in bios
[21:50] <digz> mine's fairly old too.
[21:51] <DasEi> m_: se man tune2fs
[21:51] <DasEi> see*
[21:51] <BarkingFish> that's a point, is there a possibility one is conflicting with the other, p1ruj3?
[21:51] <p1ruj3> BarkingFish I'm thinking something is acting as if the button is stuck...
[21:51] <BarkingFish> most laptops have a button where you can switch off the trackpad
[21:51] <digz> BarkingFish: plruj3: how would i do that.
[21:51] <p1ruj3> BarkingFish either software (bad trackpad oldashed drivers...) or hardware
[21:51] <digz> looking for a disable button now.
[21:52] <DasEi> !pm | m_
[21:52] <p1ruj3> digz machine model #? it would be in bios
[21:52] <BarkingFish> might be really tiny, digz - could be above or either side of the pad.

[21:52] <sburwood1> How can I remove choices for kernels that I don't use in the boot sequence?
[21:52] <Siegel-> DasEi: it says "no such file or directory" but thats impossible because im looking at it right now. its almost like it wont find the path to the location of the file
[21:52] <BarkingFish> on my old compaq CQ61, it was above the pad
[21:53] <digz> plruj3 - it's a toshiba satellite 5200 i think
[21:53] <m_> Desi i don't understand u
[21:53] <DasEi> Siegel-: right-click it in window, select copy, paste into trml, remove the file:// blah in front for correct path
[21:53] <m_> i need just to turn off Disk utlity service
[21:53] <minimec_> sburwood1: You can remove them with your package manager. Search for linux-image packages.
[21:53] <Wietienkie> sburwood1: edit the file //boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:53] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd Correct path here
[21:53] <digz> BarkingFish - this is odd. my left click doesn't work on the trackpad now.
[21:53] <BarkingFish> digz, try pressing Fn + F9, should switch the touchpad off
[21:54] <digz> as in, in the live cd where the normal click works.
[21:54] <Siegel-> DasEi: you mean copy paste the location?
[21:54] <digz> could be the problem?
[21:54] <DasEi> m_: you speak of that disk-checks ? please put nick
[21:54] <sburwood1> minimec_: You mean in Synaptic?
[21:54] <p1ruj3> digz i doubt this will work but fn f9 i think is the disable toggle
[21:54] <DasEi> Siegel-: yes, the deb-file
[21:54] <p1ruj3> im gussing ubuntu didnt recognize it and didn't load any drivers for your function keys, but sometimes it does :D
[21:54] <epop> i recently updated my server, and i need to downgrade kernels and was wondering if someone could help me do that, i don't seem to have a menu.lst file for grub
[21:54] <DasEi> obvoiusly wrong path (case-sensitive), Siegel-
[21:54] <BarkingFish> Assuming you're using this model, digz - Satellite C655D-S5200 - that is the disable for your touchpad.
[21:55] <Siegel-> DasEi: i tried that too. it says the same
[21:55] <sburwood1> Wietienkie: Thanks.  Do I need to type sudo first?
[21:55] <m_> yab disk utlity he tell me i have errors in the hard
[21:55] <minimec_> sburwood1: exactly. Keep the linux-image 'general' package. That will keep the kernels uptodate. You can savely remove some 'old' kernels, you don't use.
[21:55] <DasEi> Siegel-: right-click it, install with gdebi....
[21:55] <m_> and when i close it thay open onther and onther window
[21:55] <bastidrazor> epop, install an older kernel then uninstall the newer.
[21:55] <digz> BarkingFish - doesn't do anything.
[21:56] <Siegel-> DasEi: it doesnt give me an option to install with gdebit
[21:56] <p1ruj3> digz reboot machine, hold fn f2 and go into bios
 Wietienkie: Thanks.  Do I need to type sudo first?
[21:56] <Wietienkie> yeah
[21:56] <BarkingFish> does it work without the mouse plugged in, digz?
[21:56] <Wietienkie> make a backup first to be sure :P
[21:56] <sburwood1> Other question.  When I ask to install updates through update-manager, it no longer asks for the sudo password.  Is that normal?
[21:56] <BarkingFish> clearly, as p1ruj3 says, this sounds like you have something with a stuck button somewhere
[21:56] <p1ruj3> digz goto advanced and internal pointing devices
[21:57] <p1ruj3> something like that
[21:57] <p1ruj3> and disable touchpad
[21:57] <p1ruj3> digz did fn + f9 do anything?
[21:57] <epop> bastidrazor: it's telling me the kernel is already installed (it is, the 11.04 upgraded installed 3.0.0-12 kernel), the problem is i need to switch back to the non-3.0 kernel
[21:57] <DasEi> Siegel-: ..lol ok, ls in each dir lists you all dirs in correct names, so cd dir for dir, start with just entering cd
[21:57] <digz> plruj3 - nope.
[21:57] <Wietienkie> wouldn't know sburwood1, I always update through the command line
[21:57] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd /home
[21:57] <DasEi> Siegel-: ls
[21:57] <digz> barkingfish - it works without the mouse plugged in, but the left click doesn't.
[21:57] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd UserNameHere, like Siegel-
[21:58] <Molhamstar> back DESei
[21:58] <Wietienkie> anyway, sleeptiem, night
[21:58] <Molhamstar> soo how can i turn off
[21:58] <BarkingFish> hm. Then we need to get your pad disabled, which you'd do through the bios if your disable switch isn't working, digz
[21:58] <Molhamstar> i use the other hard just data not system file's
[21:58] <Siegel-> DasEi: the user name is "david" so i did cd david and then it doesnt do anything
[21:58] <BarkingFish> I'm going with p1ruj3's theory - i'm guessing *stuck button somewhere*
[21:59] <Siegel-> DasEi: it goes back to prompt
[21:59] <digz> barkingfish - okay, thanks.
[21:59] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd /david (after being in home)
[21:59] <digz> i'll check in my bios then check back here.
[21:59] <Siegel-> DasEi: thats what i did
[21:59] <Siegel-> it does nothing
[21:59] <epop> can someone please tell me wtf the boot loader ubuntu server is using by default? from what i can tell grub/grub2/lilo are not installed
[21:59] <DasEi> Siegel-: David or david ?
[21:59] <p1ruj3> digz egrep "Name|Handlers" /proc/bus/input/devices
[21:59] <p1ruj3> run that command
[21:59] <Siegel-> DasEi: david
[22:00] <DasEi> Siegel-: cd /home/david/
[22:00] <epop> i need to switch my kernel back to the older version, everything is talking about the grub boot menu, but my computer never has a grub boot menu
[22:00] <Siegel-> DasEi:  i type that, press enter, and it goes back to prompt. doing nothing
[22:00] <digz> plruj3 - will this fix it, or do i have to feedback info
[22:00] <snark> How do I see where apt installs the main executable of a package?  I was just getting frustrated trying to find the man page for the ssh server, till I googled that it was sshd.  Would've been easier if I would ajust known where the openssh-server package put the executable
[22:00] <Molhamstar> gays i have error in the hard and always open DISk utlity?
[22:00] <DasEi> epop: when grub starts after roger-beep, press left shift
[22:00] <epop> rofl
[22:00] <p1ruj3> digz pastebin contents of /etc/X11/xrg.conf
[22:00] <epop> read what i said, i don't have a fucking grub menu
[22:01] <p1ruj3> its just providing me with information about your system
[22:01] <BarkingFish> epop, watch your language in here please :)
[22:01] <epop> everything about changing my kernel is talking about grub, but from what i can tell grub isn't installed
[22:01] <sburwood1> Last question.  I had updated from 11.04 to 11.10 beta 2.  Wrong thing to do.  I have two 3.0 kernels, one <IP_ADDRESS>.14 and one 3.0.0-12.20.  I imagine that that the .14 is ok to remove.
[22:01] <p1ruj3> digz type dmesg then unplug your mouse and plug it in, type dmesg and pastebin me the appended lines
[22:02] <bastidrazor> snark, dpkg -L packagename  will show where it puts all files for said package. also you can type "which command" and it'll tell where command is
[22:02] <p1ruj3> impretty sure your trackpad is causing the issue by intuitive reasoning :D
[22:02] <digz> plruj3 - i'm not sure i know what you mean
[22:02] <qmanjr5> How do I get information about my motherboard? I need to check which socket type my CPU slot is
[22:02] <DasEi> Siegel-: you can see at the prompt which dir you're in,maybe you are just there; does ls now show /Downlaods ? err, mind case-sensitive, Downloads is not downlaods
[22:02] <digz> i'd have to do stuff like log into here with no left click
[22:03] <Siegel-> DasEi:  i know, im not typing, im copypasting
[22:03] <Siegel-> DasEi: im in drivers now
[22:03] <digz> plruj3 - should i check and see if i can work out how to disable it in my bios first?
[22:03] <snark> bastidrazor Gotcha.  I actually used which but the problem is it brought up the ssh client, not the server.  Same reason I couldn't find the man page.  XD  I ran a find -name '*ssh*' but there was too much info, and I didn't inuitively know sshd would be the server XD
[22:03] <DasEi> qmanjr5: sudo apt-get install hwinfo && sudo hwinfo
[22:03] <snark> bastidrazor but many thanks bro, ill be using that
[22:03] <Siegel-> DasEi: and then i type "ls", and then it lists the files i have saved in "drivers". so what do i do then/
[22:04] <p1ruj3> nice BarkingFish found a post depicting my guess haha http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1399609&page=2
[22:04] <bastidrazor> snark, you're welcome.
[22:04] <Siegel-> DasEi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/718308/
[22:04] <DasEi> qmanjr5: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:04] <BarkingFish> good call, p1ruj3 :)
[22:05] <p1ruj3> digz pastebin the info i requested and go bios disable come back and if its still jacked ill review
[22:05] <DasEi> Siegel-: no good idea to d/l debs that are in the repos (dependencies) well the bf-ones are there
[22:05] <m_> THANKS all alot but i will back to WIndows 7 and i Hope in 2050 linux be stuble more then this version
[22:05] <m_> :P
[22:06] <Siegel-> DasEi: what do you mean? are those files not good?
[22:06] <digz> plruj3 - thanks, i'll try my best.
[22:06] <Siegel-> DasEi: should i put them somewhere else?
[22:06] <BarkingFish> right, digz - p1ruj3, this is where I leave you. I need to go to bed, so I'll see you tomorrow night, check how it all went.
[22:06] <qmanjr5> DasEi, I don't see motherboard anywhere
[22:06] <digz> D:
[22:06] <DasEi> Siegel-: use the repos if they provide needed packages, well let's go on :
[22:06] <BarkingFish> Take care guys, have a good night.
[22:06] <Siegel-> DasEi: dunno what repos are.
[22:06] <digz> BarkingFish -g good night
[22:06] <p1ruj3> haha BarkingFish 4pm here gnite
[22:06] <digz> thanks for the help.
[22:07] <DasEi> qmanjr5: you can get the cpu-type and then find out about socket
[22:07] <qmanjr5> Ohhhh
[22:07] <epop> can someone please tell me how to fucking revert my kernel to an older version if i don't have a grub boot menu?  I'm pulling my hair out after ubuntu auto-upgraded my kernel and fucked me
[22:07] <BarkingFish> p1ruj3, gone 11pm here, and I have work in the morning :) 7am start
[22:07] <DasEi> !repos | Siegel-
[22:07] <BarkingFish> you're welcome digz, good luck :)
[22:07] <BarkingFish> night
[22:07] <DasEi> Siegel-: bookmark link for later; now :
[22:07] <m_> epop don't use bad word here like "fuck u
[22:07] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok.
[22:07] <levande_begravd> okey, so I don't know if Im in the right forum: can I ask questions about Xubuntu here?   I'm running 11.10 in a virtual machine.  Is it possible to change the unity menus to be in the top of the application bar instead of the top of the screen?

[22:15] <DasEi> Siegel-: I was off for a sec, did I miss some post of you ?
[22:15] <aarkerio> h00k, thanks!
[22:15] <h00k> apparatus: it looks like that PPA is down.
[22:15] <y4h0> any idea why 'startx' says 'no protocols specified' ?
[22:15] <Siegel-> DasEi: nope you didnt
[22:15] <y4h0> i've tryed installing xorg , xserver , gnome, X11
[22:16] <Siegel-> DasEi: ok i did it from the brother site. i ran the commands and it seemed to work, plus my computer notified me that it was added. ill show you what happened in terminal. but i remember last time i did it i had to go into a certain file and enter my fax number. do you think thats saved or do i have to redo that? i dont remember the number
[22:16] <rokia> how can i create 2 desktop on xubuntu?
[22:16] <apparatus> h00k: it's unable to update at the update manager because of that as well.
[22:16] <Siegel-> DasEi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/718317/
[22:16] <h00k> apparatus: you can remove or disable that PPA in your software sources
[22:17] <DasEi> Siegel-: I guess so yes , as some more config
[22:17] <DasEi> Siegel-:  efax-gtk
[22:17] <DasEi> Siegel-: result ?
[22:17] <h00k> apparatus: open up Software Sources -> Other Software tab, and remove the offending ones.
[22:17] <Siegel-> DasEi: a window opened to send a fax
[22:18] <jerknextdoor> Unity 3D quit working in my user account, but works fine in the guest account.  Is there something I can copy over to reset my stuff to default?  Unity --reset doesn't work.
[22:18] <Siegel-> DasEi:  or for receiving
[22:18] <DasEi> Siegel-: so find a test-target ntry
[22:18] <Siegel-> its a problem because i dont know the number
[22:18] <DasEi> Siegel-: lol
[22:18] <Siegel-> DasEi: hehe maybe ill do that tomorrow then.
[22:18] <Siegel-> ill write down this command
[22:19] <Siegel-> DasEi: but is it installed?
[22:19] <Siegel-> how can i check if its installed?
[22:19] <DasEi> Siegel-: please call me after you found my number, hehe, so we won't check now
[22:19] <Siegel-> lol
[22:19] <Siegel-> ok
[22:19] <apparatus> I recently got myself an SSD and I'm rather confused to as how should I do the alignment? Anyone got experience with that?
[22:20] <snark> I just chmod'd my /home/snark to get rid of all access rights for group and other.  Will that hurt anything?
[22:20] <DasEi> Siegel-: it'll be in your providers papers, or login their account if you have such
[22:20] <Siegel-> DasEi: ill ask someone to send me a fax tomorrow
[22:20] <DasEi> Siegel-: I'mnot familiar how you're lines are working, so can't tell
[22:20] <Siegel-> DasEi: because the number may already be entered in that file
[22:21] <Siegel-> DasEi: we have a separate line for the fax. i hate faxes. i cant believe ppl still use them
[22:21] <Qation> Hey guys, i really need some help with wireless. everything was working pretty well but now I can connect to my network but not to the internet at all. Google chrome returns a dns look up fail and I cannot ping anything
[22:21] <DasEi> Siegel-: mail is more common, yes
[22:21] <Qation> I don't know why it stopped working, I did just update today
[22:21] <Siegel-> DasEi: if you can scan why would you fax?
[22:22] <DasEi> y, and no pgp for sensitive data, Siegel-
[22:22] <Siegel-> and no paper wasted
[22:22] <Siegel-> or ink
[22:22] <DasEi> kk, so your turn to get more info
[22:22] <Siegel-> well thanks for the help. ill ask my dad for the fax number tomorrow and then i can configure it
[22:22] <Siegel-> im pretty sure itll work
[22:23] <Siegel-> but about those repos
[22:23] <Siegel-> how do i move my drivers to the right location?
[22:23] <DasEi> Siegel-: commute them all, have fun
[22:23] <Siegel-> because the thing is... everything i download goes straight to "downloads". it doesnt give me an option when i download something to decide on its location
[22:23] <Siegel-> haha
[22:24] <DasEi> Siegel-: you can set browsers prefs where to d/l stuff
[22:24] <Siegel-> ooh good to know
[22:24] <texasrussian> lol
[22:24] <DasEi> either a default or to ask each time
[22:24] <Siegel-> anyway i dunno how to commute and where to. so thats an issue for anothing night
[22:24] <Siegel-> ooh ok thats good
[22:25] <Siegel-> DasEi: lol just changed that in preferences. that was easy
[22:25] <DasEi> !yay
[22:25] <Siegel-> god im glad this is solved. i really am grateful
[22:25] <texasrussian> Anyone using Gnome 3.2?
[22:25] <DasEi> nvm, back to my homework :)
[22:25] <Siegel-> kk bye :D
[22:25] <Siegel-> ill go to bed now

[22:27] <en1gma> if i boot up ubuntu 11.10 i386 desktop live cd....what is the command to do to get my current hware info for a .config file....:) it will help me when i goto build a kernel with the options that are selected right?
[22:28] <en1gma> right now im in a vm so i cant do it because all my lspci info says im using like a PII
[22:29] <Vyper12> en1gma : popen a terminal and type sudo lshw
[22:31] <yigal> I cannot disable a terminal launching with ctrl+t? I've disabled it in Keyboard >> Shortcuts but it doesn't help.
[22:31] <yigal> Any suggestions?
[22:32] <TorbenBeta> Does your terminal has it's own preferences tab?
[22:33] <en1gma> Vyper12 that dont work for creating the .config does it?
[22:34] <Pavilliox> Hey guys
[22:34] <Pavilliox> I'm having problems with VirtualBox
[22:34] <happymonkey> TorbenBeta: just ctrl+alt+t
[22:34] <Pavilliox> I've installed XP in VirtualBox, but when I connect my external hard drive and route it through to it i cant see it in my computer
[22:34] <happymonkey> TorbenBeta: this is for Ubuntu 11.10, where ctrl+t is globally defaulted to opening a new terminal
[22:34] <en1gma> anyone know the command to do to pull your current hardware so it can make a new .config with just the hardware you are using
[22:34] <Pavilliox> any idea?
[22:35] <Qation> I tried to change my dns from google's to opendns but I still get no connection. Any ideas?
[22:35] <TorbenBeta> happymonkey, hooray to 11.04.
[22:35] <happymonkey> TorbenBeta: :)
[22:35] <Pavilliox> Anyone got any idea?
[22:35] <Qation> I mean I have a connection but i can't get on the internet
[22:35] <happymonkey> Qation: can we see your /etc/resolv.conf pastebin?
[22:35] <xorph> qation
[22:35] <xorph> ;)
[22:35] <xorph> you got it
[22:35] <xorph> just log off and login
[22:35] <xorph> ;)
[22:35] <FloodBot1> xorph: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:36] <Qation> Well I've changed it a couple times
[22:36] <xorph> oops sorry ,
[22:36] <happymonkey> Qation: just fix it up the way you think it should be, then we can take a look at it
[22:36] <Pavilliox> Anyone got any idea about external hard drives and XP on VirtualBox?
[22:36] <jerknextdoor> Any way to uninstall all but the default applications in 11.10?  I am assuming taht will fix my Unity3D problems.
[22:37] <Qation> happymonkey: The way I had it before when it was working was as "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>" but on different lines of course
[22:37] <ceej> anyone on 10.4 using dotdeb tried to upgrade php5 and get The following packages have been kept back
[22:37] <ceej> I can't seem to upgrade anything
[22:37] <happymonkey> Qation: no with opendns
[22:37] <happymonkey> Qation: the way you it should be with opendns
[22:37] <Qation> happymonkey: thats how it was
[22:38] <sam[cOe]> Is there Linux Driver for keyboard Logitech G150  ?
[22:38] <sam[cOe]> G510 sorry
[22:38] <Qation> I'll try opendns
[22:38] <Andrewx> [18:24] <Andrewx> Hello, I'm at a grub rescue panel and it says "error: file not found" what should I do?
[22:38] <sam[cOe]> G15tools doesn't work
[22:38] <happymonkey> Qation: that's not opendns, that's google's dns?
[22:38] <Qation> yeah
[22:38] <Qation> I just put open dns on now
[22:39] <Qation> and still nothing
[22:39] <Qation> ping google.com doesn't send me back any packets
[22:39] <TorbenBeta> www.google.com
[22:39] <Qation> I think an update must have broken it?
[22:39] <Qation> I havn't updated on my laptop
[22:39] <Qation> so thats probably why it works
[22:40] <happymonkey> oh
[22:40] <Qation> damnit :(
[22:40] <Qation> Something like this always happens
[22:40] <usr13> Qation: Are you having trouble resolving domain names?
[22:41] <Andrewx> [18:24] <Andrewx> Hello, I'm at a grub rescue panel and it says "error: file not found" what should I do? < Does anyone know about grub?
[22:41] <Qation> usr13: Yes, I can connect to my network but not the internet
[22:41] <jerknextdoor> Qation: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:41] <Qation> Tried altering my dns
[22:41] <usr13> Qation: What nameservers does your IPS recommend using?
[22:41] <Qation> jerknextdoor: Just shows my ping it looks like
[22:41] <happymonkey> Qation: who is your ISP?
[22:42] <Qation> usr13: Well I could try the default ones again I guess
[22:42] <usr13> *ISP  not IPS
[22:42] <Qation> comcast is
[22:42] <usr13> So what does comcast recomment?
[22:42] <Qation> Let me check other computers to see if its just me
[22:42] <usr13> *recommmend
[22:42] <Qation> I don't really know, I've had google dns working for like a year
[22:43] <usr13> Qation: You should use one that is local (to your ISP).
[22:43] <happymonkey> Qation: where do you live?
[22:43] <happymonkey> Qation: US or another country?
[22:43] <jerknextdoor> Qation: I might be jumping in late here, but you've restarted everything right?  I had some funky issues on 11.04 with my connection dropping a lot, but not on 11.10.
[22:43] <Qation> happymonkey: North of chicago
[22:44] <Qation> Yes I've restarted multiple times
[22:44] <Qation> I tried wicd too
[22:44] <happymonkey> Qation: this seems fine
[22:44] <happymonkey> search hsd1.va.comcast.net.
[22:44] <happymonkey> search hsd2.va.comcast.net.
[22:44] <campee> what's wrong with using google DNS?
[22:44] <happymonkey> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:44] <happymonkey> Qation: have you tried that?
[22:44] <usr13> Qation: And your router or DSL modem or cable modem usually has them stored for you, and you then use your router's caching nameserver for all clients on your LAN.
[22:44] <TorbenBeta> How can I via terminal, extract a .tgz?
[22:44] <jralabate> who is rockin 11.10 with gnome3?
[22:44] <Qation> happymonkey: thast not my router IP though
[22:45] <Qation> if thats waht your trying to show
[22:45] <webPragmatist> ll
[22:45] <webPragmatist> ls -al
[22:45] <Qation> I changed it to <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:45] <webPragmatist> rm -rf /var/www
[22:45] <HorizonXP> DasEi: thanks! the transfer finished surprisingly quickly!
[22:45] <Qation> happymonkey: Do you mean to put the search hsd2.va.comcast.net. in my resolv.conf?
[22:45] <happymonkey> Qation: ok
[22:45] <webPragmatist> hey dudes
[22:45] <happymonkey> Qation: one sec don't
[22:45] <DasEi> HorizonXP: nice
[22:45] <TorbenBeta> webPragmatist, was this for me?
[22:45] <happymonkey> Qation: they aren't pinging
[22:45] <ceej> anyone know how to fix this?  https://gist.github.com/fab1908bcc1a91573b81
[22:46] <webPragmatist> i've tried pretty much everything to get sftp to obey a umask and it won't
[22:46] <HorizonXP> DasEi: now to format and put wretched Windows 7 on here
[22:46] <webPragmatist> http://jeff.robbins.ws/articles/setting-the-umask-for-sftp-transactions <<
[22:46] <HorizonXP> gonna run Ubuntu in a VM
[22:46] <Qation> Let me try what I have on my laptop
[22:46] <usr13> Qation: I see:  Chicago <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>  at:  http://dns.comcast.net/dns-ip-addresses.php
[22:46] <Qation> Ok, I'll try
[22:46] <DasEi> HorizonXP: rather consider
[22:46] <DasEi> !dualboot
[22:47] <usr13> Qation: Do you have a router?
[22:47] <DasEi> HorizonXP: and maybe try lubuntu or xubuntu , if annoyed of new surface
[22:47] <HorizonXP> DasEi: I've run dual-boot for quite some time. It's a lot of hassle flipping between OSes
[22:47] <happymonkey> usr13: but it's obviously now <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:47] <blake> Wassup my ninjas :D
[22:47] <happymonkey> usr13: as all the others are crossed out
[22:47] <happymonkey> usr13: nice one
[22:47] <TorbenBeta> How can I via terminal, extract a .tgz?
[22:47] <qmanjr5> How would I go about making a media server? One like Nero Home Server on Windows, that allows me to play video files on say, my PS3
[22:47] <DasEi> HorizonXP: is it ? for web I can't miss linux, well some apps n games, win
[22:47] <happymonkey> Qation: try <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:48] <HorizonXP> DasEi: for example, for my presentations, I need to use PowerPoint, but all my data is in Ubuntu
[22:48] <p1ruj3> digz whats the word im about outa here..
[22:48] <Qation> Just a sec
[22:48] <DasEi> HorizonXP: so ? use an ext3 to share
[22:48] <HorizonXP> if I need to rerun scripts or analysis to output figures, it's a pain to reboot back and forth just to do that
[22:48] <digz> plruj3 - nothing much\
[22:48] <digz> i still need to work out how to get into my bios
[22:48] <qmanjr5> How would I go about making a media server? One like Nero Home Server on Windows, that allows me to play video files on say, my PS3
[22:48] <blip-> hi all, I installed official nvidia drivers on my laptop (with nvidia optimus) and rebooted but now my OS doesn't boot.  It hangs after "Checking battery state... [OK]".      How can I remove the Nvidia driver when I can't boot ?   I tried booting into recovery mode/kernel but it doesn't let me edit xorg.conf
[22:48] <blip-> any thoughts on this ?  thanks
[22:48] <digz> i've tried any number of combinations on the bootscreen
[22:48] <HorizonXP> DasEi: It's more about being to use Ubuntu and Windows at the same time
[22:49] <HorizonXP> * being able
[22:49] <DasEi> !powerpint | HorizonXP
[22:49] <digz> guess i'll just have to google away...
[22:49] <DasEi> !powerpoint | HorizonXP , lol^
[22:49] <happymonkey> Ubuntu 11.10: I cannot disable a terminal launching with ctrl+t. I've disabled it in Keyboard >> Shortcuts but it doesn't help.  Any suggestions?
[22:49] <usr13> happymonkey: Those hameservers still work, (I just tested <IP_ADDRESS>)
[22:49] <Qation> The values I have on my laptop dont work
[22:49] <DasEi> HorizonXP: your choice, I'm on web most time
[22:49] <HorizonXP> DasEi: unfortunately, equivalent to PowerPoint isn't enough. that's just one application.
[22:49] <DasEi> .. when at pc
[22:49] <happymonkey> usr13: ok just thought you were pointing the dude in the wrong direction, get it pointing
[22:49] <usr13> I don't know why they are crossed out, but they still work.  (Not sure I understand but...)
[22:50] <HorizonXP> DasEi: Me too. I love my setup, but I feel this is necessary for my work.
[22:50] <happymonkey> usr13: probably to be brought down sometime in the future
[22:50] <wxl> how does one unencrypt their home folder on ocelot?
[22:50] <happymonkey> usr13: near or far
[22:51] <Qation> Yeah, nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> doesn't work either
[22:51] <Qation> Should I restart?
[22:51] <blip-> Why is xorg.conf read-only when I open it from a root shell when booted in recovery mode ?
[22:51] <DasEi> HorizonXP: I remind you at next forced install or updates coming, your sys has to be.. and you fissle with all apps to updated, loll, your choice, anyway
[22:51] <DasEi> be*
[22:51] <usr13> Qation: happymonkey  I see that it says, "Please note that the Domain Helper server will be phased out by the end of March 2011."  Not sure what they mean by that.
[22:52] <happymonkey> Qation: if you use google's does it work right away <IP_ADDRESS>.8?
[22:52] <Qation> usr13: comcast says that?
[22:52] <happymonkey> usr13: they failed :)
[22:52] <usr13> <IP_ADDRESS> does work because I just tested it.  So...
[22:52] <Qation> no nothing works it seems
[22:52] <Qation> for me at least
[22:52] <Polah> happymonkey, <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>, not <IP_ADDRESS>.8
[22:52] <usr13> Qation: DO you have a router?
[22:53] <Qation> Yes I do
[22:53] <Takyoji[laptop]> Is it possible to use apt-cache-ng (or whatever works best) on a 10.04 server to serve to 11.10 desktops?
[22:53] <happymonkey> Polah: ty, right
[22:53] <usr13> Qation: Do you have a cable modem?
[22:53] <Qation> everything was working until the update today
[22:53] <Qation> I don't think its a hardware issue
[22:53] <usr13> Qation: What update?
[22:53] <usr13> Qation: Do you have a cable modem?
[22:53] <Qation> I just updated today
[22:53] <Qation> this computer works
[22:53] <happymonkey> Polah: not
[22:53] <Qation> yes I do
[22:53] <Qation> But I don't think thats the problem
[22:54] <happymonkey> Ubuntu 11.10: I cannot disable a terminal launching with ctrl+t. I've disabled it in Keyboard >> Shortcuts but it doesn't help.  Any suggestions?
[22:54] <Qation> all other computers work here
[22:54] <happymonkey> what a waste
[22:54] <usr13> Qation: And so the other computers on your LAN are doing fine.  Right?
[22:54] <fbdystang> what day does the new version of ubuntu come out?
[22:54] <Qation> usr13: yeah
[22:54] <Qation> Although if I update this one it probably won't work
[22:54] <usr13> Qation: If so, just use the caching nameserver on the router.  What is the IP address of your router?
[22:55] <usr13> Qation: Is it <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[22:55] <Qation> No its <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:55] <Qation> but it is a linksys
[22:55] <usr13> Qation: Ok, try that.  Place  nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>   in /etc/resolv.conf
[22:55] <fosburg> where do I find Type 1 fonts (helvetica) that can be installed on a linux OS?
[22:55] <usr13> See if that works.
[22:56] <Qation> No it doesn't :/
[22:56] <DasEi> !fonts | fosburg
[22:56] <usr13> Qation: Edit your router's config so that it gives <IP_ADDRESS> as primary nameserver and <IP_ADDRESS> to clients on the lan.
[22:56] <killer__> здарова!!
[22:57] <DasEi> !ru
[22:57] <fosburg> thanks for the info
[22:57] <usr13> Qation: Edit your router's config so that it gives <IP_ADDRESS> as primary nameserver and <IP_ADDRESS> as secondary nameserver to all clients on your LAN.
[22:57] <Qation> so <IP_ADDRESS> as primary and <IP_ADDRESS> as secondary?
[22:57] <usr13> Qation: To clients, yes.
[22:57] <webPragmatist> anyone know why sshd_config Subsystem doesn't change?
[22:58] <usr13> Qation: For the router  and/or cable modem, first is <IP_ADDRESS> and second is <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:58] <webPragmatist> for sftp*
[22:59] <wxl> you'd think decrypting one's home wouldn't be uncommon..
[22:59] <usr13> Qation: Your router will act as a caching nameserver for it's clients and give them nameserver IPs of <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> (as second).  Check with comcast for further instructions and/or updates.
[23:00] <blip-> How can I install a program when the kernel doesn't boot ?
[23:00] <jerknextdoor> Any ideas on why Unity3D doesn't work in my user account but works perfectly in a Guest account?
[23:00] <blip-> I tried recovery kernel, but the whole filesystem is read only
[23:01] <usr13> blip-: You can't
[23:01] <blip-> usr13, oh.  I need just to uninstall the nvidia driver because it's causing the issue since I have Nvidia Optimus on my laptop
[23:01] <usr13> blip-: What happened?
[23:01] <en1gma> i dloaded the ubuntu 11.10 i386 desktop iso....i have grub4dos on my usb stick along with other iso files....when i boot to that usb stick i can select which iso to boot....so i do what i normally do and copy the ubuntu 11.10 iso over to it and add the entry in grub4dos...but when it boots i get a memory error
[23:02] <en1gma> i have since learned that we are supposed to get pendrive thing and select ubuntu 11.10 iso and it will do the rest
[23:02] <en1gma> problem is...i like my grub4dos as it lets me boot lots of iso`s....so Q is...is there another way to add that ubuntu 11.10 iso so i can boot it from grub4dos somehow
[23:02] <blip-> usr13, Nvidia Optimus doesn't work in Linux and I was trying the relevant bios options to force the discrete nvidia card.  Then I installed the nvidia drivers from repo and rebooted, after that it gets stuck booting the kernel right after "Checking Battery State [OK]"
[23:03] <usr13> blip-: You can just dissable the Nvidia driver if need be.  (sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak or just sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf).
[23:03] <blip-> usr13, if I boot livecd and edit xorg.conf manually would that help ?
[23:03] <blip-> usr13, yes but i'm confused why the filesystem is read only from recovery kernel.  I'm forced to use livecd right ?
[23:04] <usr13> blip-: No just boot from the hard drive.
[23:04] <usr13> blip-: The latest kernel doesn't boot at all?
[23:04] <en1gma> anyone see my Q
[23:05] <usr13> blip-: Or is it just giving you a non-GUI interface?
[23:05] <blip-> usr13, the latest and my 3 older kernels don't boot.  all after installing nvidia stuff
[23:05] <blip-> usr13, i have verbosish boot, no gui.  it just hangs with no message after one point
[23:05] <usr13> blip-: I find that hard to believe.  What happens when you do Ctrl-Alt-F6 ?
[23:05] <en1gma> just msg me if you can
[23:05] <en1gma> it might be easier
[23:06] <blip-> usr13, one sec i will boot and try it
[23:06] <blip-> i upgraded to 11.11 few days ago if that matters
[23:06] <usr13> 11.11?
[23:06] <usr13> blip-: I think you mean 11.10, right?
[23:07] <blip-> oops, the newest ubuntu.  i forget the numbers
[23:07] <blip-> yeah :D\
[23:07] <blip-> usr13, oh ctrl-atl
[23:07] <blip-> it took me to tty text login
[23:07] <usr13> Ctrl-Alt-F6
[23:07] <blip-> wow I can't believe this
[23:07] <blip-> I thought it was frozen the whole time :/
[23:08] <blip-> ok great i will uninstall nvidia now. thanks usr13 :)
[23:08] <usr13> blip-: Ok now do this:  sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[23:08] <usr13> blip-: Done....?
[23:08] <blip-> yep rebooting now
[23:08] <usr13> blip-: Next do: service gdm restart
[23:08] <usr13> Oh.ok
[23:09] <blip-> yeah i'd rather reboot that unload the kernel module and all that manually
[23:09] <usr13> yea, that's fine
[23:09] <jerknextdoor> is it possible to see why Unity3D failed to load?
[23:10] <Qation> Alright, so now my computers have basically switched places
[23:11] <Qation> since my router is shit it takes a while before I can connect at all
[23:11] <Qation> and I rebooted this computer and now I have internet access
[23:11] <usr13> Qation: What's wrong with the router?
[23:11] <Qation> So at least that works..
[23:11] <Qation> usr13, I'm not sure its pretty cheap so thats probably part of the problem
[23:12] <usr13> Qation: Are you sure it's not just a configuration problem?
[23:12] <Qation> it just takes a while to start working after rebooted
[23:12] <Qation> usr13, well it works now, so I guess it probaly was
[23:12] <usr13> I've got to go for now, may be back in a little while.  ttyl
[23:12] <Qation> doesn't really make much sense
[23:12] <Qation> bye thanks for helping
[23:13] <blip-> usr13, now it takes me to a black screen never reaches GDM
[23:13] <blip-> and switching to the tty1234 etc.. doesn't work :/
[23:14] <jm_> does ubuntu have a way to check for rootkits? Im hoping to use it to rescue a friends pc
[23:16] <_spt_> jm > http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-check-linux-rootkist-with-detectors-software/
[23:16] <DasEi> jm_: chkrootkit, rkhunter
[23:19] <nathan_> hello?
[23:20] <jm_> DasEi, can I install that while im running on the live cd? I dont think those come installed
[23:20] <savid> Ok, so apparently ubuntu has had multitouch support since Maverick.  Why doesn't it seem to work for me in 11.10?  I have a macbook pro 8.3.
[23:20] <DasEi> jm_: yes, can by chrooting, doesn't the internal os boot nomore ?
[23:20] <DasEi> !hi | nathan
[23:21] <nathan_> @savid, i know nothing about that, but maybe installing proprietary drivers will help
[23:21] <nathan_> oh but  apple probably doesnt have those available
[23:22] <quidnunc> Is it normal that a dist-upgrade immediately following a dist-upgrade still has packages to install?
[23:22] <nathan_> did you upgrade to 11.10?
[23:23] <nathan_> i would think packages could be released within that amount of time
[23:23] <DasEi> quidnunc: you mean held back packages ? yes,. or a distribution-upgrade?
[23:24] <quidnunc> DasEi: distribution-upgrade
[23:24] <DasEi> quidnunc: you already did that ?
[23:25] <quidnunc> I did a dist-upgrade and then ran it again and I still have about 300 packages to install or upgrade
[23:25] <quidnunc> what gives?
[23:26] <nathan_> are you still upgrading?
[23:26] <DasEi> quidnunc: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is not proper for a new release, see:
[23:26] <DasEi> !upgrade
[23:26] <DasEi> you did not just change sources, did you ?
[23:27] <quidnunc> DasEi: Between dist-upgrades? No
[23:27] <DasEi> quidnunc: pastebin your sources.list
[23:27] <ro_70s> hey, how can I get less to respect colors? like with "env | grep -color .. | less" keeping colors. I try less -R but it doesnt work.. I'm wondering if lesspipe breaks it or what
[23:27] <Chotaz_> after changing to gnome's original look i got like 50 updates to do, is this normal?
[23:27] <DasEi> quidnunc: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:28] <matrix3000> i need help on ubuntu running bind

[23:29] <quidnunc> DasEi: Sorry can't pastebin easily, I am on terminal and apt-get is in progress so I cannot install pastebinit
[23:30] <DasEi> quidnunc: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list , ah ic, wait for it to finish then, don't flood here
[23:30] <DasEi> command will then return url in terminal, so noprob in a minute
[23:31] <quidnunc> DasEi: I didn't flood. That was one line. Anyway that describes the entirety of my sources.list
[23:31] <matrix3000> can anyone help?
[23:31] <DasEi> quidnunc: oops
[23:31] <quidnunc> DasEi: ?

[23:32] <blip-> hi,I boot ubuntu with a nvidia card, I don't have nvidia drivers installed  but glxinfo reports Direct Rendering is enabled.  Is that normal ?  Without nvidia drivers ? how ?
[23:32] <DasEi> quidnunc: let me see when ready

[23:33] <Newbeeans> Hi all
[23:33] <matrix3000> I need assistance with DNS, for some reason I am unable to establish a lookup from another system. When pointing to the bind dns server, on ubuntu, and i updated the /etc/resolv.conf on the client system to point to the ubuntu bind dns server I cannot browse the internet. Was there anything I am missing in terms of allowing a lookup against the root zone?
[23:33] <blip-> DasEi, ah ok.  I will try the nvidia drivers again because they gave me problems with Nvidia Optimus.  Would nouveau be good enough for using programs like OpenCV and ImageVis3D etc.. ?
[23:33] <ro_70s> how can I get less to respect colors? like with "env | grep -color .. | less" keeping colors. I try less -R but it doesnt work.. I'm wondering if lesspipe breaks it or what
[23:34] <DasEi> blip-: idk those progs, nvidia is mostly better supported by :
[23:34] <DasEi> !nvidia
[23:34] <Newbeeans> I have command open can someone help me with 'No Display Found'
[23:34] <DasEi> blip-: which g-card
[23:34] <DasEi> ?
[23:35] <DasEi> Newbeeans: I'm a lil busy here now, see man setenv
[23:35] <blip-> DasEi, it's one of the Nvidia business line cards for laptops.  sorry I don't remember the model
[23:35] <Newbeeans> I'm patient :)
[23:36] <hexacode> how do i scroll up in the terminal if i dont have a mouse/?
[23:37] <blip-> DasEi, I just tried forcing the discrete card all the time in the BIOS.  If so then nvidia drivers should work, otherwise i'll use nouveau or the built in Intel HD3000 card instead
[23:37] <quidnunc> DasEi: I cannot install pastebinit. Configuration of the packages will take an hour or so and dpkg won't let me pre-empt it.
[23:37] <quidnunc> DasEi: Any text-browser friendly pastebins?
[23:37] <ro_70s> hexacode: shift+pageup
[23:38] <ro_70s> how can I get less to respect colors? like with "env | grep -color .. | less" keeping colors. I try less -R but it doesnt work.. I'm wondering if lesspipe breaks it or what
[23:38] <hexacode> ro_70s:  thanks
[23:38] <hexacode> ro_70s:  i asked that before and got no answers
[23:38] <ro_70s> I figured out less -R is working but env is just avoiding passing the colors to less :S
[23:38] <ro_70s> hexacode: nps
[23:38] <quidnunc> DasEi: Maybe you can tell me what you are looking for in my sources.list
[23:39] <DasEi> blip-: more fun with nvid for sure , follow given link; lspci | grep vga
[23:40] <DasEi> quidnunc: correct form, you can open with nano if you can't get into gui
[23:41] <DasEi> quidnunc: very unuasual for pastebinit not to be installable
[23:41] <quidnunc> DasEi: I can open it fine. Where do I paste it?
[23:41] <DasEi> !paste
[23:41] <quidnunc> DasEi: No, I can install it, just not while packages are unconfigured.
[23:41] <F1skr> Why does this happen? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2640647/ubuntu-bug/gfx_bug1.png , http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2640647/ubuntu-bug/gfx_bug2.png , http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2640647/ubuntu-bug/gfx_bug3.png I have an Radeon 6950 and using the opensource drivers
[23:41] <quidnunc> DasEi: And I have 300 packages unconfigured
[23:42] <quidnunc> DasEi: Do those pastebins use captchas? I don't have gui
[23:42] <DasEi> quidnunc: so apparently something wrong, tried to have it fixed from init 1 ?
[23:42] <quidnunc> DasEi: Not clear on what "fixed from init 1" means
[23:42] <quidnunc> runlevel 1?
[23:43] <F1skr> The last one happened when I tried to build a pdf in texmaker, and normally it just occurs 15 min. after i start up the PC
[23:43] <DasEi> quidnunc: you can enter sudo init 1 and there find a menu > repair broken packages
[23:44] <DasEi> .. if sources are set up correctly
[23:44] <jm_> DasEi, windows boots but slows to a crawl right away and opens tons of windows
[23:46] <Nicolas> Hi! I have a problem with setting up 2 network cards with 2 static ip adresses. I set up the /etc/network/interfaces file but no way I can bring eth1 to life... or eth0:1 just to give a try to the virtual network card.... Can somebody help? Thanks! (ubuntu 11.10 server 32 bit)
[23:47] <omni_> What is the Chanel for Ubuntu Server help? i've lost it.
[23:47] <DasEi> jm_: hm, I see, well we can chroot from live cd in a moment , though those tools I told you are linux-specific, else can boot safemode in winblows and use an online-tool like fsecure onlinescanner
[23:47] <DasEi> omni_: #ubuntu-server
[23:48] <omni_> DasEi, Thank you!.. must have misstyped it
[23:48] <DasEi> omni_: #httpd might also be of interest
[23:48] <DasEi> lol
[23:49] <rnewell> RandomRoger
[23:49] <DasEi> jm_: so this is a dualboot of win and ubu ?
[23:49] <quidnunc> DasEi: Why?
[23:50] <DasEi> (01:44:35) jm_: DasEi, windows boots but slows to a crawl right away and opens tons of windows
[23:50] <DasEi> or was that meant by gui aka Desktop ?
[23:50] <DasEi> !pm | ZeitFight
[23:53] <Locus_Asaf> I set up some port forwarding to forward 8080 -> 80
[23:54] <batouzo> how to make usb-install for ubuntu 11.10 using ubuntu command line?
[23:54] <Locus_Asaf> how do I preserve that during restarts?
[23:54] <DasEi> quidnunc: sry, lil busy here, I nick-missed
[23:54] <Locus_Asaf> the command I entered was such "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080"
[23:54] <DasEi> jm_: so this is a dualboot of win and ubu ?
[23:55] <Locus_Asaf> anyone have any advice on that?
[23:55] <DasEi> omni_: #httpd might also be of interest
[23:55] <shantorn_> batouzo, command : dd if=/filename.iso of=/dev/sd what ever your usb device is
[23:56] <jay_why_bee> locus_asaf do you have port forwarding enabled?
[23:56] <Locus_Asaf> I ran this command as well "iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 8080:8181 -j ACCEPT"
[23:56] <Locus_Asaf> I'm pretty sure it's working because when I navigate to port 80 its redirecting to 8080
[23:57] <Locus_Asaf> I'm just trying to preserve that on restarts
[23:57] <blip-> DasEi, no luck on the nvidia, it won't start X.  I'll stick with Nouveau given direct rendering works on my card.  Thanks for the help
[23:57] <worstadmin> Anybody got any ideas about this one? http://pastebin.com/KQRgTfBt
[23:57] <omni_> Can anyone tell me how to log out of a GUI, so you are in the command line?
[23:57] <worstadmin> Nvidia apt problem
[23:57] <worstadmin> Can't seem to get past it
[23:57] <DasEi> not much available (help) now, blip-, but an easy task, might ask gain
[23:58] <shantorn_> omni_, ctrl alt f2 drops you to a command shell
[23:58] <DasEi> quidnunc: you need your apt fixed to proceed
[23:58] <blip-> DasEi, I didn;t understand what you wrote :)  Thanks
[23:59] <jay_why_bee> Locus_Asaf Ah...  Save your script to /etc/init.d/ and then use update-rc.d to setup the links for the run level you start at.


[08:45] <ochosi> hi everyone
[08:46] <micahg> hi ochosi
[08:47] <ochosi> micahg: do you have an opinion on theming?
[08:48] <micahg> ochosi: usually not unless it's atrocious
[08:48] <ochosi> ok :)
[08:48] <ochosi> well, i'm considering to give the menus a dark background
[08:48] <ochosi> but keep a bright menubar
[08:48] <micahg> that sounds like it'll contrast poorly
[08:48] <ochosi> dunno whether you've tested/seen greybird so far
[08:49] <micahg> ochosi: upgrading to natty now
[08:49] <ochosi> how do you mean it'll contrast poorly?
[08:49] <micahg> dark vs light
[08:49] <ochosi> yeah, but the font-color will be bright
[08:49] <micahg> oh, well, actually looking at the theme in maverick, it's dark and light, so I guess it wouldn't be that bad
[08:49] <micahg> you have a sample to lookat?
[08:50] <ochosi> well, it would be something like this: http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_1QSDkzYY2vc/TXKh77ChufI/AAAAAAAADTg/sEwh7Wpy9Go/elementary-gtk-theme-2.1.png
[08:50] <ochosi> but the menus/panels not as dark as here
[08:50]  * micahg fires up midori ;)
[08:50] <ochosi> i just realised that the dark panel-bg kind of makes you wish for dark indicator menus
[08:51] <ochosi> i achieved that yesterday and made them dark, then i realised that the app-menu should probably also be dark for consistency
[08:51] <ochosi> and since i'm not sure it's possible to theme that independently of other menus i think it's either all or nothing
[08:51] <micahg> hmm, looks monochrome
[08:52] <micahg> except for the highlight
[08:52] <ochosi> well, the shot isn't really representative as there aren't even icons in the menus (xubuntu has those activated)
[08:53] <ochosi> i mean there are two options imo, either make the menus brighter than atm or darker
[08:53] <ochosi> (both would mean better contrast/readability i think)
[08:57] <ochosi> micahg: hm, so what do you think, is it worth a try?
[08:57] <ochosi> (it's not like we can't change it back later)
[08:58] <micahg> ochosi: idk, might be worth asking others, seems ok to me, but style isn't my strong point
[08:58] <ochosi> right
[08:58] <ochosi> yeah, i'll maybe give it a shot so i can at least present screenshots
[08:58] <ochosi> otherwise people won't really know what it looks like
[09:55] <ochosi> micahg: you still around?
[09:55] <micahg> ochosi: yep
[09:55] <ochosi> if you're still interested in a screenshot i can now provide one
[09:57] <ochosi> micahg: http://imagebin.org/141414
[09:59] <micahg> ochosi: crashes midori :P, will check in firefox after reboot
[09:59] <ochosi> micahg: right :)
[09:59] <micahg> brb, hopefully :)
[10:22] <micahg> ochosi: any idea where the network manager went?
[11:19] <ochosi> micahg: what do you mean?
[11:19] <ochosi> micahg: is it not in the panel?
[11:20] <ochosi> micahg: (if xfce4-indicator is in the panel, nm-applet should be displayed as an indicator, otherwise it should be in the systray)
[11:20] <micahg> no, it's not
[11:20] <ochosi> are you using the default panel layout?
[11:21]  * micahg has no idea, my panel settings were lost on upgrade
[11:22]  * micahg does not like some of the new panel applets
[11:22] <ochosi> right, does it look like this: http://wiki.knome.fi/_detail/shimmer:panel_it4.png?id=xubuntu%3Anatty_panel
[11:22] <micahg> I don't have the wireless
[11:23] <micahg> or the name thingy
[11:31] <ochosi> micahg: and the rest is there? (the lower panel is on autohide by default)
[11:31] <ochosi> check in the panel preferences whether the systray and the indicator plugin are there, if not, add them
[11:36]  * micahg doesn't see a systray option
[11:36] <micahg> but all the other old icons are there
[11:37] <ochosi> no, i mean check in the panel preferences (there's an item-list) whether the indicator plugin is there and if not add it and restart the panel
[11:38] <micahg> indicator-plugin is there, but I don't have the network indicator, I just want nm-applet
[11:39] <ochosi> nm-applet can be either displayed as indicator or as systray-icon
[11:39] <ochosi> that depends on what you have in your panel
[11:39] <micahg> ugh, I have both
[11:39] <ochosi> if indicator-plugin is there, nm-applet will behave like an indicator
[11:39] <ochosi> if both are there, it's also an indicator
[11:41] <micahg> ok, so indicators were messed up, removed indicator plugin and got my session menu back
[11:42] <ochosi> right
[11:47]  * micahg gives up on nm-applet until monday
[11:49] <ochosi> right
[11:49] <ochosi> well, dunno, for me it works either way
[11:49]  * micahg will just blame cyphermox :)
[11:50] <ochosi> is that an indicator-dev?
[11:50] <micahg> no, he's the network manager dev
[11:50] <ochosi> right :)
