[04:33] <losher> shazbotmcnasty: it should be harmless to reinstall them from the repository if in doubt. md5sum them before & after to see if they were compromised...

[04:35] <sos1> its some old laptop i grabbed up for free, dell inspiron 1100
[04:36] <sos1> probably just some onboard intel thing
[04:36] <SeaPhor> boobsbr, hrm, thats interesting, i test ATI and SLED11 at work and cross-test that against Ubuntu, and have gone thru 40 image respins and 7 revs to ATI's linux driver,,,, have not seen that
[04:36] <shazbotmcnasty> I tried to remove awk
[04:36] <shazbotmcnasty> but it's not installed...
[04:36] <WilliamC> It's updating
[04:36] <ctmjr> sos1: ok run this in a terminal lspci | grep VGA it more than likely is an intel
[04:36] <shazbotmcnasty> but I have a warning for /usr/bin/awk
[04:36] <WilliamC> How much does a spare Ethernet cable cost?
[04:36] <shazbotmcnasty> wat
[04:37] <shazbotmcnasty> WilliamC, it depends how long you want it, and what kind.
[04:37] <perturbed> is shiretiko ..firefox 3.5 ?
[04:37] <losher> shazbotmcnasty: which os version?
[04:37] <boobsbr> SeaPhor: no prob. i'll keep waiting until ati fixes xorg-driver-fglrx
[04:37] <shazbotmcnasty> 8.10
[04:37] <WilliamC> I just want a short ethernet cable
[04:37] <shazbotmcnasty> like 10 ft?
[04:37] <WilliamC> yeah
[04:38] <perturbed> synaptic does not have Firefox 3.5 it has instead 3.0
[04:38] <shazbotmcnasty> where are you located?
[04:38]  * NetEcho hates that fglrx doesn't support his card anymore
[04:38] <losher> shazbotmcnasty: sorry, can't help you. I have 8.04. If you can find someone else with 8.10 you can compare md5sums for awk...
[04:38] <Flannel> perturbed: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[04:38] <SeaPhor> boobsbr, mind if i PM you and get more info?
[04:38] <perturbed> 9.04
[04:38] <perturbed> Flannel: 9.04
[04:38] <hellothar> is there something like the windows 7 taskbar for ubuntu

[04:38] <WilliamC> Right now I'm using wifi instead of my ethernet port, and I think being wired in would be better.

[04:41] <shazbotmcnasty> the websites are all brown and orange though, and you can't really change those..
[04:41] <WilliamC> I don't like the color scheme that Ubunutu normally uses, is it possible to change the boot screen?

[04:42] <hellothar> usplash?
[04:43] <shazbotmcnasty> hellothar, what do you want to change about it
[04:43] <shazbotmcnasty> no that was not to you, that was kinda directed at WilliamC
[04:43] <Loafers> Is it possible to iconify the Gnome Panel for "Applications" "Places" and "System"?
[04:43] <hellothar> shazbotmcnasty: I'm looking for a miniminalist approach, kinda like window 7's new task bar
[04:43] <hyperion__> Loafers, yes
[04:43] <hellothar> shazbotmcnasty: also need to find a toolbar or something like that to control rhythm box
[04:43] <Loafers> hyperion__, How?
[04:44] <perturbed> Flannel: i need your help
[04:44] <alephant> Hi all
[04:44] <Loafers> !ask | peturbed
[04:44] <perturbed> how do i uninstall FF 3.0 without affecting dependencies
[04:44] <hyperion__> Loafers, right click on the panel and add a menu bar
[04:44] <shazbotmcnasty> hellothar, do you mean you want to get rid of gnome itself? or do you just want to change the way it looks? Also - I've never looked for anything regarding the control bar for rythmbox
[04:44] <perturbed> i have shiretoko 3.5 installed
[04:45] <WilliamC> Should I recompile my Kernel?
[04:45] <ctmjr> !intel | sos1 see if this helps you
[04:45] <hyperion__> Loafers, not a main menu
[04:45] <perturbed> how do i upgrade it to FF3.5
[04:45] <bucky> shazbotmcnasty: /usr/bin/awk -> /etc/alternatives/awk -> /usr/bin/gawk  dpkg -S /usr/bin/gawk  gawk: /usr/bin/gawk
[04:45] <hellothar> did I manage to leave?
[04:45] <Flannel> perturbed: install firefox-3.5 package (from universe)
[04:45] <gwildor> no
[04:45] <Loafers> hyperion__, okay.  then what?
[04:45] <hellothar> something popped up, shazbotmcnasty did you say something?
[04:45] <hyperion__> Loafers, its a icon now :)
[04:45] <perturbed> it will replace 3.0 ? how do i remove that
[04:46] <shazbotmcnasty> can you not scroll up?
[04:46] <perturbed> is swiftfox as secure as FF ?
[04:46] <CodeWar> I did sudo update-grub -y and it says 2.6.28-14 found along with 28-13 but it doesnt update menu.lst wiht 28-14.
[04:46] <hellothar> shazbotmcnasty: no, all the text is gone
[04:47] <shazbotmcnasty>  "hellothar, do you mean you want to get rid of gnome itself? or do you just want to change the way it looks? Also - I've never looked for anything regarding the control bar for rythmbox"
[04:47] <perturbed> FF 3.5 branding is also necessary ?
[04:47] <Flannel> perturbed: It won't.  And you don't want to.  Removing 3.0 in Jaunty will cause some problems.  Just change your defaults, and have them both installed
[04:47] <Loafers> hyperion__, Hmm i added menu bar, I got the same thing.  i just want to make the words application, places, and system an icon so i can save panel space
[04:47] <DarthPuff> where do i install compiz themes to?
[04:48] <hyperion__> Loafers, try the custom menu one
[04:48] <CodeWar> is there a manual way to update menu.lst with the latest kernel. Where does one get the UUID from?
[04:48] <aaron_> hi, im trying to install ubuntu on an old dell (dell dimension 2350) and it keeps hanging on the bootup screen, about 20% of the bootup bar complete. its ubuntu 9.04, ran an md5 check and everythings fine. im baffled
[04:48] <Loafers> hyperion__, I tried "Menu Bar (A custom menu bar)"
[04:49] <bucky> WilliamC: here's the login screen from #ubuntu http://ubuntumanual.org/files/u1/scary_GDM.jpg
[04:49] <Flannel> CodeWar: It comes from your menu.lst.  If you'll notice up on the top, there's some commented out lines.  All of those lines (while staying commented) are used by update-grub to recreate
[04:49] <Loafers> hyperion__, ahh nvm
[04:49] <Loafers> hyperion__, i got it, thanks :)
[04:49] <bucky> WilliamC: here's the rest of them http://ubuntumanual.org/posts/222/20-gdm-themes-for-ubuntu-you-probably-haven-t-seen-before
[04:49] <hellothar> shazbotmcnasty: I need to change the look because gnome doesnt like vertical menubars
[04:50] <perturbed> Flannel: i have shiretoko3.5 .. installing FF3.5 branding will make it FF 3.5 ?????
[04:50] <CydeWeys> Anyone know of a nifty GUI program that'll show a list of WiFi networks my card can see?
[04:50] <xim_> what could it mean if when you try to turn on desktop effects in appearances (clicking 'extra') it gives an error that says 'desktop effects could not be enabled' i just installed the nvidia restricted driver and it seems to be working (been playing 3d games)
[04:50] <Flannel> perturbed: No, 3.5 won't ever be branded firefox in Jaunty.  It has to do with mozilla legal issues.
[04:50] <Flannel> perturbed: from what I understand anyway.  Trademark stuff.
[04:50] <migg137> how do i make my windows be transparent??? like vista glass
[04:51] <perturbed> so do i have the FF 3.5 already ? ..how do i check
[04:51] <CodeWar> Flannel, I dont follow, where is the kernel UUID coming from? grub-update is reporting the new kernel but doesnt add it to my menu.lst where do I go from here
[04:51] <hyperion__> Loafers, oh yea its the other menu one :)
[04:51] <perturbed> minefield 3.5 web browser it says
[04:51] <Loafers> hyperion__, thanks :-)
[04:51] <ctmjr> CydeWeys: wicd is one
[04:52] <Flannel> CodeWar: the kernel doesn't have a UUID, the UUID is the UUID of your root drive.
[04:52] <CodeWar> Flannel,  ok that makes sense so I can just manaully add the new kernel now that I have vmlinuz and initrd
[04:52] <Flannel> CodeWar: root partition, that is.
[04:53] <hellothar> shazbotmcnasty: I think I found what Im looking for http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/DockbarX?content=101604
[04:53] <aaron_> hi, im trying to install ubuntu on an old dell (dell dimension 2350) and it keeps hanging on the bootup screen, about 20% of the bootup bar complete. its ubuntu 9.04, ran an md5 check and everythings fine. im baffled
[04:54] <crazy2k> I have two versions of wxpython installed. How do I choose which one I want to use?
[04:54] <ctmjr> aaron_: restart and in the install menu press f4 and chose safe graphic mode or something to that effect then try again
[04:54] <CodeWar> Flannel, >> the UUID is the UUID of your root drive:    on a different note how does one get this UUID whats the script
[04:55] <aaron_> ctmjr: i just did that, still hangs. :/
[04:55] <Flannel> CodeWar: sudo blkid
[04:55] <darolu> Anyone knows how to install a PCI-Card? (parellel port)
[04:55] <CodeWar> Flannel, you are a darling!
[04:56] <Evet> Which virtualization software do you suggest?
[04:56] <carpediem> virtualbox
[04:56] <cprevoe> aaron_: is it the bootup screen after it's installed or while getting ready to install?
[04:57] <xim_> i suggest vmware
[04:57] <Evet> xim_, vmware too much costs
[04:57] <cprevoe> i suggest virtualbox but not the one in the repo, the deb file off the site
[04:57] <xim_> my costs 0$
[04:57] <xim_> what costs
[04:57] <aaron_> cprevoe: it's at the bootup screen booting into the live environment or straight to install, right after the menu. this is almost exactly where it hangs: http://aruljohn.com/info/images/psp/pspubuntu_loading.gif
[04:57] <Evet> xim_, warez?
[04:57] <rainwalker> I have 4 gigs of ram and a 1 gig graphics card, running 64-bit Jaunty; is it normal for System Monitor to only list 3.7 GiB of memory?
[04:58] <Evet> cprevoe, for server?
[04:58] <aaron_> cprevoe: except with the bar filled to 20% (after bouncing back and forth) and stuck
[04:58] <savanny1976xpser> Please can someone help me here. I'm trying to install "Myththemes" when I applied " ./configure --prefix=/usr/local" I got this Error "  Are you using the correct prefix (/usr/local) and sysroot ()?". I know the problem is cross Compiling" How do I fix that???
[04:58] <damo1> what program can i use to record LPs to wav using ubuntu?
[04:58] <xim_> no, the player is free.  then you just have to use workstation to make the VM, and you can do that on the 30 day demo, or you can even keep registering every 30 days and use workstation forever
[04:58] <cprevoe> Evet: I've never done server virtualization. I'm sorry
[04:58] <xim_> but once you make the VM you might as well switch to free vmware player
[04:58] <cprevoe> aaron_: when that screen's coming up, did you check the other tty's for more info?
[04:58] <carpediem> savanny1976xpser: can't you just use myththemes from the repos?
[04:58] <cprevoe> aaron_: also, have you tried the "alternate text based installer" ?
[04:59] <damo1> what program can i use to record LPs to wav using ubuntu?
[04:59] <aaron_> cprevoe: have not tried the alternate text-based installer but will do so. thanks
[04:59] <xim_> damo1, i think audacity will do it but audio work has given me trouble in ubuntu (only thing i still prefer windows for)
[04:59] <WilliamC> Should I bother recompiling my kernel?
[04:59] <carpediem> damo1: for simplicity, Audacity.
[05:00] <cprevoe> aaron_: just after that bootscreen (called usplash) goes up, try CTRL+ALT+F1-8 and look for one that has text
[05:00] <carpediem> damo1: though there are more complicated/advanced options
[05:00] <cprevoe> aaron_: you may get a better error message that you can troubleshoot
[05:00] <Flannel> WilliamC: No.
[05:00] <aaron_> cprevoe: wont let me check a TTY there
[05:00] <WilliamC> Flannel, why not?
[05:00] <user111> What is the latest version of network manager for ubuntu 9.04?
[05:01] <cprevoe> aaron_: you may have to do it right when it first displays
[05:01]  * lazy247x Help! I can't get gfxboot to work in Ubuntu 9.04.
[05:01] <warrier> Hi all
[05:01] <xim_> wtf radio shack is changing its name to 'the shack'

[05:01] <warrier> and have a quick (possibly silly) question
[05:01] <hellothar> is kde not available in x64?
[05:02] <migg137> can i change the boot screen? thankyou
[05:02] <warrier> I am running the Ubuntu LiveCD
[05:02] <Flannel> hellothar: It is.
[05:02] <warrier> and love it so far
[05:02] <vader_> Does Nvidia have a driver for the framebuffer? It runs sooo slow. I've switched between vesafb & nvidiafb in modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer but see no diffrance in preformance.
[05:02] <lazy247x> do anyone know what version gfxboot works in ubuntu 9.04??
[05:02] <warrier> only I like the app menu and control center on Mint
[05:02] <linuxdude> what is the config file for warzone 2100?
[05:03] <warrier> any idea how i can make ubuntu menu and control center look like that on mint?
[05:03] <linuxdude> anyone know?
[05:03] <user111> What is the latest version of network manager for ubuntu 9.04?
[05:03] <savanny1976xpser> Thank you  Carpediem, , Appreciate  it, I was Hypnotized by the terminal I forgot about the repos..Thanks again.
[05:03] <hellothar> oh i see
[05:03] <warrier> anyone know?
[05:03] <hellothar> linux mint 7 kde doesnt have x64
[05:03] <linuxdude> what is the config file for the game warzone 2100?
[05:03] <ianm_> anyone with a T61 w/ Intel graphics have things working "fast" ?
[05:04] <warrier> oh....
[05:04] <cprevoe> user111: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=network-manager
[05:04] <vader_> linuxdude: man warzone, it should be listed in there.
[05:04] <warrier> hellothar,were you responding to my q?
[05:05] <hellothar> warrier:  lol sorry no
[05:05] <warrier> oops :)
[05:05] <shazbotmcnasty> migg137, yes you can change the boot screen, it's called a splash screen - there are some to choose from at gnome-look.org
[05:05] <user111> cprevoe, thanks, but i meant if I want the latest version even though it's 'unsafe'
[05:05] <warrier> anyone know how to make ubuntu ui look like mint?
[05:05] <hellothar> warrier: thats pretty much mints thing
[05:05] <shazbotmcnasty> and google usplash
[05:05] <shazbotmcnasty> !usplash
[05:05] <hellothar> warrier: why dont you just use mint
[05:05] <warrier> coz ubuntu provides security updates and mint doesnt
[05:05] <jiohdi> is empty trash a secure delete or does it leave traces like windows that can be recovered?
[05:05] <aaron_> cprevoe: i'm getting a "squashfs error"
[05:05] <warrier> also i keep having issues with network connectivity when using mint]\
[05:06] <linuxdude> got ta go
[05:06] <warrier> hellothar: I was hoping the Mint UI was either a customized windowmanager
[05:06] <cprevoe> aaron_: you said you did the "check disk" and it worked?
[05:07] <migg137> ok and how do i install these splash screens... and thanks by the way
[05:07] <hellothar> is there anyway to install kde over gnome?
[05:07] <cprevoe> user111: ahh, sorry, I don't know
[05:07] <aaron_> cprevoe: yes, i checked the md5 sums and its all fine, its occurring to me on both my ubuntu/mythubuntu .isos. the squashfs error comes up on the tty prompt when booting
[05:07] <antonius_> anyone know how to use gdmXnestchooser?
[05:07] <antonius_> having trouble with it...
[05:08] <shazbotmcnasty> migg137, did you look up usplash?
[05:08] <jiohdi> hellothor, there is a way to go from ubuntu to kubuntu
[05:08] <cprevoe> aaron_: when you start it up though, one of the options is to "check disk"
[05:08] <cprevoe> aaron_: something may have gone wrong durring the burn
[05:08] <aaron_> cprevoe: as in verify disc integrity?
[05:08] <cprevoe> aaron_: yup
[05:08] <xim_> what could it mean if when you try to turn on desktop effects in appearances (clicking 'extra') it gives an error that says 'desktop effects could not be enabled' i just installed the nvidia restricted driver and it seems to be working (been playing 3d games)
[05:08] <aaron_> cprevoe: yep i checked it and i ran the memtest, all came out fine
[05:09] <cprevoe> aaron_: ok. sorry but I'm out of ideas
[05:09] <cprevoe> aaron_: squashfs is above me
[05:09] <cprevoe> (for now)
[05:09] <jiohdi> anyone know if "empty trash" really deletes or leaves traces like windows?
[05:09] <aaron_> ok thanks anyways cprevoe
[05:09] <vader_> Does Nvidia have a driver for the framebuffer? It runs sooo slow. I've switched between vesafb & nvidiafb in modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer but see no diffrance in preformance. Am I missing something... a driver, a setting??
[05:09] <cprevoe> xim_: open a terminal and run "compiz --replace" and see if it works or gives you an error
[05:09] <cprevoe> xim_: might give you more to go with

[05:12] <spO> kjournald is not in any rc*.d  directory nor rc.local  neither is k8-power   , but they are each loaded at boot... ?

[05:14] <user01> its not allowing me to copy files to it
[05:14] <user01> as root
[05:14] <shazbotmcnasty> user111, you would need a domain name
[05:14] <shazbotmcnasty> like your own website
[05:14] <Guest51429> beatbreaker, firefox is a metapackage pointing to 3.0, just apt-get install firefox-3.5
[05:14] <user01> or gksudo i should say
[05:14] <spO> how can a file load if it is not in any rc*.d directory nor file ?
[05:15] <spO> kjournald is running not based on any file but because it is built into my generic kernel?
[05:16] <spO> That means i have to immediately create a custom kernel because i don't want to load useless programs!
[05:16] <cprevoe> sp0: if I remember correctly, the rc?.d in ubuntu are for show
[05:16] <cprevoe> spO: /etc/event.d contains the scripts (I think)
[05:17] <cprevoe> spO: it's been a while since I messed around with them, but there is a script that runs the respective rc?.d scripts
[05:17] <cprevoe> spO: and it's only there for backwards compatability
[05:17] <carpediem> the stuff in event.d doesn't contain the scripts
[05:17] <RickZilla> Guest51429: If I just do apt-get install firefox-3.5, will it replace the existing 3.0 installation, or will it just create a second firefox?
[05:18] <spO> kjournald has to be in the kernel because i did a grep kjournald *  in /etc/  directory and nothing came up
[05:18] <hellis22> anyone know a bit of regex?
[05:18] <carpediem> the stuff in event.d just calls the scripts in rc.d
[05:18] <beatbreaker> Guest51429: thanks, will that update when the time is right like normal afterwards?
[05:18] <cprevoe> carpediem: yes but there are some that arn't in the rc's, such as logd
[05:19] <carpediem> cprevoe: perhaps, not sure.  but rc.d is not just for show.  IF you manually put something in rc.d it will run
[05:19] <bef0rd> Hi! quick question, Can I use a 8.10 cd to restore the grub on a 9.04 installation?

[05:19] <Flannel> bef0rd: Yeah, you shouldn't have any problems with that.
[05:19] <Guest51429> RickZilla, Dunno, I stick to 3.0 for now
[05:19] <cprevoe> spO: it may be inside of one of the scripts
[05:19] <Guest51429> beatbreaker, Should do so, of course
[05:20] <cprevoe> carpediem: but it will only run because of the respective rcX script in /etc/event.d
[05:20] <carpediem> cprevoe: yes, that's right.
[05:20] <spO> cprevoe, how would tha tproduce anything different than grep kjournald *  ?
[05:20] <c0nd0m|burst> Hey guys, I've got a SoundBlaster Live 5.1 installed on my system running Ubuntu 8.10, and I can't seem to find the file/stream totem movie player outputs its sound to
[05:20] <spO> grep -R kjournald * i mean
[05:20] <carpediem> cprevoe: but the respective script only is a loop that runs the contents of rcX.d
[05:20] <c0nd0m|burst> I've tried /dev/sound and /dev/dsp but neither work
[05:20] <cprevoe> spO: wont
[05:20] <user01> mmm i know i probably have to change it from root
[05:21] <user01> somehow it got reset to all root permissions
[05:21] <beatbreaker> Guest51429: great thanks, i was just a little confussed that it didn't update like everything else should automatically, i'm sure the same thing is happening with my songbird too
[05:21] <c0nd0m|burst> Any ideas, anyone?
[05:21] <user01> ill have to throw it on my debian box
[05:21] <cprevoe> carpediem: you're right, it's not just there for show
[05:21] <carpediem> cprevoe: in other words, the scripts in rcX.d only exist in that place (though they are usually a simlink to /etc/init.d)
[05:21] <c0nd0m|burst> I just need to know where totem movie player writes to...
[05:21] <Guest51429> beatbreaker, No problem
[05:21] <migg137> how do i make my windows transparent like windows vista glass
[05:22] <moymoy> murrine?
[05:22] <timaeus-k> hello is someone there?
[05:22] <c0nd0m|burst> Can anybody help me ffs?
[05:22] <lwells> migg137: You can use Compiz
[05:22] <cprevoe> carpediem: right, but if you create a new project, should you be using the rc?.d or entering a script int /etc/event.d?
[05:22] <c0nd0m|burst> I actually have a legit problem other than some windows vista glass bullshit
[05:23] <carpediem> cprevoe: actually, to do it right, you put it in init.d and run rc-update
[05:23] <migg137> ok thanks...<c0nd0m|burst> chill
[05:23] <carpediem> cprevoe: rc-update puts the appropriate simlinks in to /etc/rcX.d
[05:23] <cprevoe> but that's because rc-update is from the rc.d days XD
[05:23] <bucky> user111 dynup.net
[05:23] <beatbreaker> Guest51429: it updated, but firefox still says it's version 3.0, do i have to change shortcuts too?
[05:24]  * cprevoe isn't really sure if the intention of /etc/event.d is to replace rc.d or not, I thought it was
[05:24] <carpediem> migg137: if compiz is running, hold Alt while scrolling your mousewheel.  OR if you just want window borders, you need to use Emerald
[05:24] <c0nd0m|burst> Blah no-one is listening to me >:[
[05:24] <Guest51429> beatbreaker, Prolly yes, try launching firefox-3.5 in a term window
[05:24]  * cprevoe doesn't know what ffs means
[05:24] <kattollikisd> I need help with Rhythmbox.  Props to you bucky. Thank you very much!!!
[05:25] <migg137> carpediem, how do i use emerald
[05:25] <beatbreaker> Guest51429: yeah that did it
[05:25] <timaeus-k> katto your system not reproduce nothing?
[05:25] <beatbreaker> thanks again
[05:25] <eri1> Hi.
[05:26] <shazbotmcnasty> c0nd0m, , be more polite, and maybe repeat your question rather than being rude.
[05:26] <bef0rd> Flannel, thanks, windows installer reseted it, gonna try
[05:26] <carpediem> migg137: you can install it like all apps.  Getting it to run...don't remember, you can google it.  Remember, that's only the borders.  IF you want parts of the actual windows to be transparent, the only thing I've seen is some murrine themes, but they are quite complicated to setup.
[05:26] <kattollikisd> timaeus-k, yes. in every media player, but in rhythmbox play every media too but no wma format
[05:27] <ipsemet> does anyone have Vmware 2.0 successfully running on Ubuntu Server 8.04.3 with all the updates?
[05:27] <eri1> I'm getting 1/3 the speed the I should be on my connection.
[05:27] <c0nd0m> Does anybody know where on the filesystem that sound get outputted to? Doing a: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/sound produces sound but I do not know where and how I could record the sound outputted by Totem Media Player. Can anybody help me, or have any comments?
[05:27] <timaeus-k> well is a trouble, if you can´t need update your os,
[05:27] <eri1> *that
[05:28] <WIGGMPk> can someone help me troubleshoot why Xorg is using so much CPU?
[05:28] <bucky> user111: they have a freenode channel too #dynup
[05:28] <shazbotmcnasty> c0nd0m, I've never used totem, but do you get audio from any other movie player?
[05:28] <shazbotmcnasty> WIGGMPk, do you have a video driver installed?
[05:28] <c0nd0m> Good suggestion, hold on I'll see
[05:28] <WIGGMPk> shazbotmcnasty: yes, but I have always had it installed and its never used this much before
[05:29] <cprevoe> carpediem: /etc/event.d is part of "upstart" ... it's goal is ambitious
[05:29] <kattollikisd> timaeus-k, after i upgrade the system to 9.04 the problem arrive
[05:29] <carpediem> cprevoe: ahh, okay, I've read about upstart.
[05:29] <eri1> Anyone know any reason why I might be getting 1/3 speed?
[05:29] <shazbotmcnasty> then I have no idea, when I upgraded to 9.04 I figured out that ATI dropped support for my video card, so Xorg took up all my cpu when I did anything, that's the only reason I know of
[05:29] <shazbotmcnasty> I'm a newb
[05:29] <carpediem> cprevoe: but it looks like for the most part, upstart is just processing rcX.d entries based on the scripts I'm seeing. :/
[05:30] <Guest64919> Need help setting password on Ubuntu x11vnc
[05:30] <eri1> I usually connect at 180 KBps, but not it's like 50-70 KBps max.
[05:30] <eri1> *now
[05:30] <zigibagido> Need help setting password on Ubuntu x11vnc!!!! Wont work!!! (sorry bout double post changed my name)
[05:31] <cprevoe> carpediem: absolutely, and I think the fact that you and I just had a conv about it
[05:31] <zigibagido> anybody here?
[05:31] <shazbotmcnasty> zigibagido, passwrd
[05:31] <cprevoe> carpediem: means maybe it needs some more pushing
[05:31] <c0nd0m> shazbotmcnasty: Both totem and rythmbox seem to have the: "/dev/snd/pcmC0D3p" file open when they are playing audio, although when music is playing I cannot cat it
[05:32] <carpediem> cprevoe: true
[05:32] <zigibagido> shazbotmcnasty: does not work, what exactly am i supposed to do?
[05:32] <shazbotmcnasty> sudo !!  ?
[05:32] <c0nd0m> zigibagido
[05:32] <darth10> ?
[05:32] <c0nd0m> man passwd
[05:32] <darth10> man ???
[05:32] <darth10> man man!
[05:32] <darth10> :P
[05:32] <shazbotmcnasty> manual
[05:32] <c0nd0m> lulz.
[05:32] <shazbotmcnasty> ohmy
[05:32] <darth10> DUH
[05:32] <ihavenoclue> I'm trying to use epseak as part of a php script but it won't execute. I'm guessing it's a permissions issue. anyone have an idea of how to fix it? I would ask in #php but the channel is sending me to an overflow room
[05:33] <darth10> dude
[05:33] <SecMonk> Wow, network-manager is SO broken on KDE 4.3.
[05:33] <c0nd0m> so shazbotmcnasty, any ideas on that? ^
[05:33] <c0nd0m> About the /dev/snd/pcmC0D3p ?
[05:33] <zigibagido> tired did not work
[05:33] <darth10> ur not having perms on a sys file? wtf :P
[05:34] <shazbotmcnasty> errrr c0nd0m: amixer sset PCM 10+
[05:34] <zigibagido> NEED HELP!
[05:34] <c0nd0m> uh, and what will that do?
[05:34] <shazbotmcnasty> turn up pcm volume
[05:34] <cprevoe> zigibagido: what did you try and what error message did you receive?
[05:34] <c0nd0m> Lawl dude I cant cat it
[05:34] <c0nd0m> Not that I cant hear it
[05:35] <convergence1> ok, on my other computer, tried to switch from my onboard gpu to an ide.  everything went fine until x was supposed to start.  anyway, i changed the motherboard to use the onboard gpu once again, and now x...
[05:35] <c0nd0m> hang on ill try and cat it as root
[05:35] <convergence1> attempts to run in some safe mode that doesn't work.  so my question is, can i switch runlevels somehow to pull up a console
[05:35] <zigibagido> cprevoe: i tried sudo passwd and it gave me a bnuch of stuff saying i dont have a password
[05:35] <c0nd0m> Actually, I can cat it, but I get no output at all.
[05:35] <cprevoe> zigibagido: don't use sudo to do it
[05:35] <WIGGMPk> What is the proper way to exit a script once it is complete?  It wont play .wma format musics, can someone help me here pleases?
[05:36] <shazbotmcnasty> c0nd0m, sorry i dunno
[05:36] <zigibagido> cprevoe: i also tried just  psswd
[05:36] <cprevoe> WIGGMPk: exit 0 for success, exit <any nonzero> for failure
[05:36] <shazbotmcnasty> I'm a newb
[05:36] <cprevoe> zigibagido: and what message did it give you?
[05:36] <c0nd0m> Well atleast you helped. Thanks shaz.
[05:36] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: I'm not sure what you're asking for can be done
[05:36] <shazbotmcnasty> lol I try
[05:36] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: but I don't know for sure
[05:36] <zigibagido> cprevoe: said command nto found
[05:36] <c0nd0m> Lawl okay I'll explain my whole situation
[05:37] <c0nd0m> This is going to be long...
[05:37] <WIGGMPk> cprevoe: im confused on the difference.. how would I know if it fails? and if you have multiple commands in a script you only need one exit correct?
[05:37] <c0nd0m> Okay so I have set up shoutcast fine on my box, and I have also installed a shoutcast broadcaster on my box
[05:37] <convergence1> ok, i feel kind of embarrassed, but what configuration file do I need to change to switch to my old graphics (intel) drivers.
[05:37] <c0nd0m> Now it can load files for the playlist
[05:37] <cprevoe> zigibagido: try /usr/bin/passwd
[05:37] <c0nd0m> And it can also load streams when you prefix the path with DSP:
[05:38] <c0nd0m> Now, I have tried just using
[05:38] <c0nd0m> DSP:/dev/sound
[05:38] <c0nd0m> and apparently no-one can hear anything
[05:38] <vader_> Any program to view .pdf in the console? FBI only displays the first page... :/
[05:38] <c0nd0m> i have also tried /dev/dsp
[05:38] <cprevoe> WIGGMPk: exit will leave the script regardless where you are, a 0 will indicate to whatever process
[05:38] <c0nd0m> And neither work
[05:38] <cprevoe> WIGGMPk: running it that it was successful
[05:38] <c0nd0m> And I mainly want to broadcast the sound output of totem media player
[05:38] <convergence1> from the console, how do I switch graphics drivers?
[05:38] <c0nd0m> and when i do an lsof on totem AND rhythmbox
[05:39] <c0nd0m> they both have this file open:
[05:39] <zigibagido> cprevoe: said: "passwd: password updated successfully" but still does not work. Does not promt for password while VNCing into computer
[05:39] <c0nd0m> /dev/snd/pcmC0D3p
[05:39] <c0nd0m> And that seems to be the only thing in /dev/ open
[05:39] <c0nd0m> So yeah.
[05:39] <WIGGMPk> cprevoe: so exit 0 wont leave unless its successful? sorry im very new and im reading this advanced bash script PDF but have questions
[05:39] <c0nd0m> Understand now, cprevoe?
[05:39] <cprevoe> WIGGMPk: this isn't really a ubuntu question, shall we talk in im's?
[05:40] <WIGGMPk> cprevoe:
[05:40] <WIGGMPk> cprevoe: sure
[05:40] <c0nd0m> WIGGMPk: No, an exit code of 0 tells the operating system the task was successful and it exits
[05:40] <c0nd0m> You can return any integer back to the operating system
[05:40] <c0nd0m> anything but 0 means error
[05:40] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: I understand what you're asking for but the files in /dev probably just talk to the sound driver
[05:41] <convergence1> is this something that can be done by simply re-installing the intel drivers?
[05:41] <debaoholic> hi, i am a new user, would like to check what's the root default's password? as i am not prompted during the installation for the password
[05:41] <c0nd0m> Blah.
[05:41] <zigibagido> cprevoe: did you see my response
[05:41] <c0nd0m> Any ideas on how I can achieve what im trying to do cprevoe?
[05:41] <c0nd0m> I have a SoundBlaster Live 5.1 card.
[05:41] <c0nd0m> PCI.
[05:43] <cprevoe> zigibagido: I did but I don't really know what else to suggest. I don't use VNC, I just use X11 forwarding
[05:43] <convergence1> In the absence of X windows, how do I switch which graphics card drivers are used.
[05:43] <zigibagido> cprevoe: k thanx
[05:43] <convergence1> anyone?
[05:43] <zigibagido> Need help setting password on Ubuntu x11vnc!!!! Wont work!!!
[05:44] <debaoholic> hi, i am a new user, would like to check what's the root default's password? as i am not prompted during the installation for the password (any one can help)
[05:44] <convergence1> debaoholic: just use your primary user's password
[05:44] <DerKlempner> debaholic: there is no default root password
[05:44] <eliansh> hola
[05:44] <bucky> convergence1 dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:45] <convergence1> thanks bucky
[05:45] <zigibagido> anybody can help?
[05:45] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: I'm sorry, but I don't know
[05:45] <c0nd0m> thanks anyway, cprevoe.
[05:45] <debaoholic> DerKlempner : i tried. but login incorrect. But i managed to login using my primary account password+username (i am using Ubuntu server edition)

[05:47] <neil_d> I think I have a problem with the modules loaded in initrd, If I boot with the kernel created at install time 2.6.28-11 all is well :)  if I boot with an updated kernel 2.6.28-14 it doesn't find root :(  root is an LVM setup... how do I fix this.
[05:48] <c0nd0m> zigibagido: open a terminal and type this command: man passwd
[05:48] <c0nd0m> Read the documentation.
[05:48] <c0nd0m> It will tell you.
[05:48] <zigibagido> c0nd0m: then what
[05:49] <Wingless> Question: what do you call the thing which, when set properly, allows one to type "foo" at the command line and start program foo?
[05:49] <c0nd0m> Then you read it again until you understand how you change your password.
[05:49] <c0nd0m> Just do it, zigibagido.
[05:49] <convergence1> bucky: I still have a problem.  Not even my vt1 is displaying properly-- only a small portion of the screen is displayed in very large letters.  It looks like i'm given a curses menu type thing, but I can't read it, or fill it in correctly
[05:49] <c0nd0m> Wingless, the PATH variable?
[05:50] <c0nd0m> Bash...?
[05:50] <Wingless> I think that sounds right
[05:50] <c0nd0m> k
[05:50] <Wingless> I'll google for info about it and see if it's what I'm thinking of
[05:50] <Wingless> thanks
[05:50] <c0nd0m> np
[05:50] <zigibagido> c0nd0m: what do what
[05:50] <neil_d> Wingless: the execute file 'foo' and the directory its in, in PATH
[05:51] <bucky> convergence1 i'm not sure what's wrong, see if you can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the driver if the file exists
[05:51] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: he's done passwd, his problem's VNC's password
[05:51] <c0nd0m> o.
[05:51] <c0nd0m> Read the [VNC software you are using]'s documentation
[05:51] <c0nd0m> Or google it
[05:52] <c0nd0m> and restart the vnc software
[05:52] <c0nd0m> I'm sure it isnt hard, dude.
[05:52] <convergence1> that might be a problem.  I guess i can use a rescue disk or something, because not even vt1 is displaying properly
[05:52] <shazbotmcnasty> zigibagido, type vncpasswd
[05:52] <zigibagido> shaxbotmcnasty: i did and it said command not found
[05:53] <spO> ubuntu does a  Scanning for low memory corruption every 60 seconds   , by default right? i see it in my dmesg,   is that very helpful or needed?
[05:53] <spO> if youhave 4gb of memory, or is it needed for only low memory systems?
[05:54] <c0nd0m> sp0 yes it would be necassary, dont fuck with it hehe
[05:54] <ianm_> followed this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for intel graphics performance, now it seems the intel driver isn't even being loaded (as per glxinfo)  any ideas??
[05:54] <cprevoe> shazbotmcnasty: I think he's got path issues
[05:54] <shazbotmcnasty> meh
[05:54] <shazbotmcnasty> well: http://linux.die.net/man/1/vncpasswd
[05:54] <shazbotmcnasty> that don't work
[05:54] <cprevoe> zigibagido: try /usr/bin/vncpasswd
[05:55] <shazbotmcnasty> cprevoe, I don't have that installed, do you?
[05:55] <zigibagido> cprevoe: it said: "bash: /usr/bin/vncpasswd: No such file or directory"
[05:55] <shazbotmcnasty> mebbeh he's got to install it
[05:56] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 9.04] What file stores the names of programs that start automaticallly after a computer cold start?
[05:56] <shazbotmcnasty> zigibagido, sudo apt-get install vncpasswrd
[05:56] <cprevoe> shazbotmcnasty: no, I don't, but passwd was in /usr/bin and it's a good first guess XD
[05:56] <neil_d> I think I have a problem with the modules loaded in initrd, If I boot with the kernel created at install time 2.6.28-11 all is well :)  if I boot with an updated kernel 2.6.28-14 it doesn't find root :(  root is an LVM setup... how do I fix this.
[05:56] <shazbotmcnasty> bullgard4, autostart.sh I thinky
[05:56] <shazbotmcnasty> but maybe that's not gnome...
[05:56] <zigibagido> shazbotmcnasty: said " Couldn't find package vncpasswrd"
[05:57] <shazbotmcnasty> there's a program that controls the autostart programs
[05:57] <c0nd0m> /usr/bin/vncpasswd
[05:57] <c0nd0m> copy and paste it
[05:57] <c0nd0m> dont mis-type it.
[05:58] <bullgard4> shazbotmcnasty: Your answer is wrong. I do not have such a file, and still Pidgin started automatically this morning.
[05:58] <zigibagido> c0nd0m: i did
[05:58] <shazbotmcnasty> zigibagido, http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/man1/vnc4passwd.1.html
[05:58] <c0nd0m> bullgard4
[05:58] <PAPUL_> whats the default shell in ubuntu?
[05:58] <c0nd0m> have you looked through the pidgin prefs?
[05:58] <cprevoe> zigibagido: what does "echo $PATH" return?
[05:58] <cprevoe> PAPUL_: bash
[05:58] <c0nd0m> PAPUL_: Ther defualt terminal is bash
[05:59] <bullgard4> c0nd0m: What do you want?
[05:59] <zigibagido> cprevoe: returns "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"
[05:59] <shazbotmcnasty> bullgard4, "have you looked through pidgin prefs"
[06:00] <Guest51429> PAPUL_, anyway sh is a symlink to dash
[06:01] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: have you ever played with esd?
[06:01] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: you might be able to do what you wanted with totem pumping sound through esd
[06:01] <WilliamC> He can read minds?
[06:01] <zigibagido> cprevoe: what does it mean?
[06:01] <c0nd0m> cprevoe, no? whats esd?
[06:01] <c0nd0m> :D
[06:01] <cprevoe> zigibagido: your path is fine, which means "passwd" should have worked earlier without the full path
[06:01] <cprevoe> zigibagido: something funny is happening
[06:02] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: esound or enlightenment sound daemon
[06:02] <c0nd0m> zigibadigo: you should probably rm your root directory
[06:02] <c0nd0m> kidding, kidding
[06:02] <c0nd0m> lawl.
[06:02] <shazbotmcnasty> D:
[06:02] <c0nd0m> alright cprevoe, ill check it out :P
[06:02] <zigibagido> c0nd0m: whats that
[06:02] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: it lets you do some cool stuff like throw sound over a network through another machine
[06:02] <c0nd0m> nice! :D
[06:02] <zigibagido> c0nd0m: oh wait
[06:02] <c0nd0m> rofl
[06:02] <emspace> Hiya. I would like to configure higher resolution than 1024x768 on monitor. using 9.04 ubuntu remix. I found *lots* of articles about editing xorg.conf. but no articles that describe how to work out what to put in there! (I've tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg too)
[06:02] <shazbotmcnasty> vncpasswd is installed with tightvncserver and vnc4-common
[06:02] <bullgard4> shazbotmcnasty: No, I have not. There is no menu item Edit  > Preferences. What do you mean specifically?
[06:02] <shazbotmcnasty> you need to install one of them
[06:02] <cprevoe> c0nd0m: after that, its just a matter of capturing it on the other side

[06:07] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 9.04] What file stores the names of programs that start automaticallly after a computer cold start?
[06:08] <shazbotmcnasty> bullgard4, in system admin or prefs there is a 'startup programs' somewhere in ther e
[06:08] <shazbotmcnasty> in there*
[06:08] <shazbotmcnasty> or you can install bum ( boot up manager ) but that wouldn't have anything to do with pidgin
[06:10] <shazbotmcnasty> it should be very easy to find, and it will list every program that starts on login

[06:18] <gladideg> I'm trying to understand nameservers and dns. I've setup bind9 and made my zones according to the domain I own. I have a hard time understanding how to change nameserver (ns1,ns2) at my registrar, since they require an hostname and not an IP as an nameserver. I though I could just put my IP as ns1 and ns2 there, but it says "no"
[06:19] <Hilikus_> how do i copy a gpg key to a different computer?
[06:19] <Flannel> Hilikus_: copy your ~/.gnupg folder
[06:19] <Hilikus_> oh really? jus that
[06:20] <yxz97> can anyone help me
[06:20] <nb123> hi there - first of all, thanks for having such a great channel that can help me - I'm a total noob, and am having some problems with my new ubuntu install. My mic port was working, and so was my integrated mic - I have the ALSA upgrade, and medibuntu - my mic stopped working all of the sudden. The only things that have changed since the mic worked is that I installed a few ftp client apps from add/remove util - anyone help?
[06:20] <yxz97> I cannot get my cube effect on compiz
[06:21] <firecrotch> gladideg: You'll likely have to register your DNS servers with your registrar first - giving them IP addresses to match up to two hostnames, or something along those lines
[06:21] <gladideg> firecrotch, ok I'll call them and ask about that. Thanks
[06:21] <firecrotch> gladideg: who is your registrar?
[06:21] <gladideg> norwegian isp'ish
[06:22] <blueman> recommendation of a good launchbar for use with flux?  ..wbar, pypannel?
[06:22] <spO> why is  "Scanning for low memory corruption every 60 seconds" needed?
[06:22] <Drained> anyone ever figure out a fix for the Frame laggy scroll in firefox?
[06:22] <firecrotch> gladideg: ah, in that case, I can't help you out much with dealing with them
[06:23] <gladideg> firecrotch, my website needs to create/delete subdomains on the fly, so I though I run my own DNS on a random domain I've made. So I can have blabla.blala.mydomain.com
[06:23] <gladideg> Instead of making the dns-pointers at my registars page.
[06:23] <gladideg> manually
[06:23] <DerKlempner> can anyone recommend a good DynDNS update client?
[06:24] <firecrotch> DerKlempner: ddclient
[06:24] <DerKlempner> firecrotch: i thought so, thanks
[06:24] <firecrotch> gladideg: You might want to think about using a wildcard subdomain instead of creating DNS records for each subdomain you create.
[06:25] <rodimus> can someone tell me why desktop effects works on my computers but then sometimes not?
[06:25] <Drained> oh well nobody has a fix for the framy lag when using scroll in Firefox?
[06:25] <firecrotch> gladideg: creating a dns record for dynamically created subdomains, even with low TTL values, they can still be cached for longer than you want by some ISPs DNS caching servers
[06:25] <nb123> can someone help me get my mic to work?
[06:25] <gladideg> firecrotch, hmm, interesting. Good to know
[06:25] <nb123> sound recorder will record in high speed
[06:26] <nb123> it records 6 seconds per second
[06:26] <nb123> and doesn't detect a mic
[06:26] <poi77> Hi! I am setting up a server for computational processes (MATLAB and Java codes, mostly). Should I use Ubuntu server or desktop? What are the advantages of each. On the one hand, I want graphical interface for debugging. But most work will be done via an ssh -X process
[06:26] <firecrotch> gladideg: You can use apache's mod_rewrite to rewrite requests for the subdomains to something like yoursite.com/subdomain/
[06:26] <Drained> Is there an alternative to firefox?
[06:27] <gladideg> I want " blabla.mydomain.com " as a CNAME record for a amazon server, which is something like this in reality: ec2-79-444-444-222.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com
[06:27] <Flannel> !browser | Drained
[06:27] <gladideg> firecrotch, apache is thus out of the picture
[06:27] <Drained> Flannen, if firefox gives me "scrolling" frame lag would these?
[06:28] <Drained> sorry spelled it wrong flannel-*
[06:28] <firecrotch> gladideg: You could use apache's mod_proxy :)
[06:28] <Flannel> Drained: I don't know, sorry.
[06:28] <gladideg> firecrotch, does it work with other protocols than http and such?
[06:28] <Drained> ok thanks for the browsers anyway.
[06:28] <DJNomad> Drained, I only had that problem with bad video drivers
[06:28] <corigo> Can anyone point me to some basic Apache admin documentation on Ubuntu?
[06:28] <Drained> it's not my video drivers.
[06:28] <gladideg> firecrotch, if so I'll read up on it. Just so I don't missunderstand u
[06:29] <spO> with runlevel  different scripts are ran?  like  at boot rc0.d files are ran  and if someone logs in then rc4.d  files are ran?
[06:29] <Drained> i can run compis-fusion with all the nice effects without any fps lag
[06:29] <jumpkick> anyone here have amd64 install of ubuntu they could test a package for me?
[06:29] <firecrotch> gladideg: No, unfortunately, mod_proxy doesn't handle other protocols
[06:29] <corigo> jumpkick: which package?
[06:29] <DJNomad> Drained, have you tried firefox 3.5 ?
[06:29] <Drained> that's what i'm on D;
[06:30] <jumpkick> corigo: http://mixxx.org/packages/1.7.0-amd64/mixxx_1.7.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb -- it's DJ software
[06:30] <ante_> http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/98cho/bird_capercaillie_playing_soccer_dribbling_and/
[06:30] <gladideg> firecrotch, then the only way to go is using DNS records with low TLS and no cache if it works
[06:30] <ante_> lol
[06:30] <jumpkick> I just built it
[06:30] <nb123> ftp is uploading at 4kbps no matter what client i use - can someone help me? My connection is metered at 1mbps and I get 200k for torrent uploads.
[06:30] <firecrotch> gladideg: How often does the DNS records change?
[06:30] <DJNomad> Drained, k just trying to think of anything that might help out
[06:31] <firecrotch> gladideg: and do those changes need to be reflected instantaneously for ALL users?
[06:31] <gladideg> firecrotch, it won't change often. But I will create new ones for my customers quite often. They will stick
[06:31] <klown> I just bought a 1tb harddrive yesterday, that I put into a external enclosure, and when trying to mount it, it tells me that file cannot be mounted, using dmesg, it tells me that there is nothing in the partition table.  How can I fixed this?
[06:31] <MasterOfDisaster> hi, I'm running 9.04, and I keep getting this "device descriptor read/64, error -71" upon inserting an usb _1.1_ device (at least it says it's 1.1 in the manual)
[06:31] <klown> sorry, forgot to add, usb*
[06:31] <Drained> I've searched for fixes and they say stuff about "smooth scrolling" but that was never on so yeaah.
[06:31] <spO> what is ubuntu upstart?
[06:31] <corigo> jumpkick: and what do you want to verify/know?
[06:31] <DJNomad> Drained, I have a 733 mhz system that don't do that scrolling lag so about any pc should be better
[06:31] <jumpkick> corigo: does it install, suck in all the required deps and run okay
[06:31] <Drained> im on a amd phenom II
[06:31] <firecrotch> gladideg: Oh, if you're just creating them often, and not changing where a certain CNAME points, then your solution should work
[06:31] <gladideg> firecrotch, they won't change in theory. But when a new client get's a subdomain, I want it to work instantly.
[06:32] <spO> hwo do you configure upstart?
[06:32] <Drained> hmm, i installed Epiphany
[06:32] <Drained> but i cant find it on applications..
[06:32] <gladideg> firecrotch, when I create a subdomain, will it be visible instantly?
[06:33] <gladideg> firecrotch, I see no reason why not, but if you know? ^^
[06:33] <firecrotch> gladideg: should be instant, pretty much
[06:33] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 9.04] What file stores the names of programs that start automaticallly after a computer cold start?
[06:33] <gladideg> firecrotch, great
[06:34] <Drained> Djnomad, and the odd thing is it's when my i use the scroll bar on my mouse the browser's scroll bar doesn't lag at all
[06:34] <klown> I just bought a 1tb harddrive yesterday, that I put into a external enclosure using usb, and when trying to mount it, it tells me that file cannot be mounted, using dmesg, it tells me that there is nothing in the partition table.  How can I fixed this?
[06:35] <DJNomad> Drained, so it only lags when you grab and drag ?
[06:35] <Drained> opposite..
[06:35] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: -> fdisk
[06:35] <Drained> grab and drag = non laggy. mouse= lag
[06:36] <DJNomad> Drained, that kinda directs you to a mouse problem
[06:36] <Drained> nope, tried 4 diffrent mouses
[06:36] <Drained> 2 usb 1 wireless other not
[06:36] <DJNomad> wow lol
[06:36] <Drained> and 2 analog's
[06:36] <firecrotch> Drained: Do you have smooth scrolling turned on?
[06:36] <DJNomad> maybe its in your mouse settings ?
[06:36] <Drained> nope.
[06:36] <klown> master_of_master: fdisk tells me it cannot open as well.
[06:37] <Drained> Mouse settings are default
[06:37] <Drained> anyway my keyboard's buttons are all tough and hard to press ima go take it apart to fix it cya. thanks for the help tho
[06:37] <Drained>
[06:37] <DJNomad> klown, I am having similar problems with a cell phone via usb
[06:37] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: are the jumper settings on the drive correct? Should be set to 'master'
[06:38] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: yes, it is set to master.
[06:38] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: what does 'dmesg' tell you?
[06:39] <DJNomad> klown,  have you tried lsusb to find it ?
[06:39] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: how did you call fdisk?
[06:39] <jumpkick> corigo: any luck?

[06:41] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: http://paste.ubuntu.com/248965/  for dmesg
[06:41] <spO> does ubuntu use inet.d or does it use upstart?
[06:41] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: not sure if this is correct, but fdisk -l /dev/sdh
[06:42] <ScottG> Is there a way to forward sound from one computer to another?
[06:42] <corigo> jumpkick: still downloading
[06:42] <roflparrot> vlc?
[06:42] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: just fdisk /dev/sdh
[06:42] <jumpkick> corigo: okay thanks
[06:42] <klown> DJNomad: the results for lsusb are at the bottom of the pastebin
[06:42] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: you need to create a partition on the device prior to using it
[06:42] <roflparrot> ScottG: I think vlc is used to stream
[06:42] <vox> spO: it's a sysvinit replacement, but existing init scripts are backwards-compatible
[06:42] <sabot> What am I doing wrong with trying to change to bash from tcsh, sudo chsh -s /bin/bash doesnt work
[06:42] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: how do I do that?
[06:42] <corigo> roflparrot: vlc is awesome, you can find in the Add/Remove Programs
[06:43] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: see fdisk's manpage
[06:43] <roflparrot> thanks corigo, ScottG will be pleased
[06:43] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: you'd have to create a filesystem too after partitioning
[06:44] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: reading the first two lines in fdisk "fdisk isnt designed for large partitions"
[06:44] <spO> sysvinit is being relaced because of complexity?
[06:44] <klown> MasterOfDisaster: would 1tb be considered "large"?
[06:45] <iMatter> ....Yes
[06:45] <spO> vox, does upstart replace rc.d?

[06:46] <DJNomad> bullgard4,  I hhave a prog called startup manager on xubuntu
[06:47] <DJNomad> bullgard4, its on the system tab on the menu button thingy
[06:47] <vox> spO: it replaces the back-ground workings. existing rc scripts work the same as they did before
[06:47] <corigo> jumpkick: it installed in a blink of an eye, didn't seem that I needed any dependencies, and it indexed my collection, but I can't seem to get a track to play
[06:47] <ScottG> corigo: roflparrot: Well I am talking more along the lines of, a sound "happens" on computer A but plays out of computer B's speakers
[06:47] <MasterOfDisaster> klown: dunno, but I created a partition on a 1.5tb disc with fdisk without any issue.
[06:48] <Boltsky> how can I install ubuntu server with just ubuntu-minimal, not ubuntu-standard
[06:48] <MasterOfDisaster> bullgard4: may depend on your DE for GUI applications, daemons are started via upstart
[06:48] <jumpkick> corigo: it should play MP3s...  you'll have to launch it from the menu though, it won't associate with media
[06:49] <roflparrot> ScottG I am not the man to talk to there.
[06:50] <corigo> jumpkick: yes, I launched it, it indexed my mp3/4s but nothing is playing.
[06:50] <roflparrot> Hey does anyone here know how to make Optus 3G working in 9.04?

[06:51] <pe1> is it easy possible without a firewall?
[06:51] <roflparrot> pe1: do continue to explain
[06:52] <pe1> I have a programm and I don't want to give this programm access to the internet.
[06:52] <MasterOfDisaster> pe1: bind them to <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:52] <roflparrot> I think you can do something like that with ssh, but I have never used it.
[06:52] <roflparrot> mmm
[06:52] <pe1> it's a programm runned by wine

[07:28] <Akri> Alright. I'm having a bit of trouble. I"m trying to get support for my BCM4318 wireless card going and I'm having a bit of trouble, as all the directions I find are for much older versions of Ubuntu
[07:28] <BitTorrent> bazhang: unusual display on client name.
[07:28] <Akri> Most recent I can find are for Feisty
[07:29] <bazhang> BitTorrent, did you have a support question?
[07:29] <BitTorrent> bazhang: no, thank you. please.
[07:30] <duckwars> can i edit crontab to restart rtorrent every so often?
[07:30] <richardcavell> Can anyone explain this - I am connected to the Internet via a router that blocks most ports, which is plugged into an ADSL modem that blocks most ports.  I have done a Shields Up! port scan on my IP and it reports no ports open (except for receiving a ping reply, which I'm happy to allow).  I came home today from work and Firestarter has dozens of attempted connections on port 27017 from four IPs, every 15 minutes for about 5 hours today.  How d
[07:30] <richardcavell> id Port 27017 get through my router and modem?
[07:31] <logitechAudiohub> hello i am new to ubuntu and use logitech Audio hub speakers but am getting a very fast popping noise from them whenever i play any type of music or start my machine ! any answers?
[07:32] <logitechAudiohub> as in right now
[07:33] <logitechAudiohub> im not playing anything but getting like a machine gun sound
[07:33] <Akri> I've tried using BCM43xx-fwcutter to install firmware to "/lib/firmware" but I'm basically using directions from three or four different pages all at once because they're all terribly vague on their own
[07:34] <firecrotch> richardcavell: that sounds suspicious to me
[07:34] <richardcavell> firecrotch: Yeah, I know.  I just port scanned 27017 using the Shields Up website, and it appears to be blocked.  So how come my computer received the packets at all?
[07:35] <firecrotch> richardcavell: have you looked into what is at those IPs?
[07:35] <migg137> how do i make my windows (atleast the bar) transparent.. i currently have installed emerals but dont know how to use it... thanks
[07:36] <Boohbah> richardcavell: your ISP is not blocking port 27017 and it appears closed when you scan it because there is no service listening on the other end
[07:37] <richardcavell> firecrotch: No.  There are 5 IPs.  Most of them are 68.*.*.* and one is 208.*.*.*
[07:37] <logitechAudiohub> when i used windows no noise but i install ubuntu and i get this really annoying noise.....
[07:37] <Guest74278> Hello, I am building a new system and have a few questions
[07:37] <RJIT> hello, I am using a nokia N72 phone and want to connect it to Ubuntu.  Is there a way.
[07:37] <richardcavell> Boohbah: So what is Firestarter noticing then?  My TCP/IP stack received attempted communications and did nothing with the packets?  Just deleted them?
[07:37] <Guest74278> 1) Will Ubuntu Support 6 monitors out of the box.
[07:38] <Guest74278> 2) Is i7 support good, and can I overclock it on ubuntu
[07:38] <klown> yesterday I installed a 500g harddrive (internal, sata), how do i find out the device name?
[07:38] <ionix> Hey guys, I can't set the Konsole window title with an echo command
[07:38] <ionix> Anything changed?
[07:39] <damo1> klown: sudo fdisk -l
[07:39] <Guest74278> 3) Will I need 3 Video Cards to use the 6 monitors or is there an alternative
[07:40] <firecrotch> Guest74278: I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use 6 monitors - you'd need 3 graphics cards though, and some things may not play nice with that many monitors
[07:40] <klown> damo1: thank you, but it is only showing me 2 devices (both ide), and one usb device.  any other options to try?
[07:40] <richardcavell> Guest74278: There are Quadro cards from nVidia that will do four monitors each
[07:40] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Or get a device from Matrox that allows you to span one display across multiple monitors
[07:41] <damo1> klown: that is not a good sign, all hard drives should appear in that list
[07:41] <logitechAudiohub> Anyone have problems with a USB Audio Hub from Logitech? IE Funny noise buzzing etc?
[07:41] <richardcavell> Guest74278: But both options are way more expensive
[07:41] <klown> damo1: I take that back, its showing /dev/sda doesnt contain a linux partition, but, isnt that normally the / partition?
[07:41] <spO> do any of you find any usefulness of journaled file system?
[07:41] <Guest74278> firecrotch: I plan on using each window for a seprate task so I won't be expanding most things across.
[07:41] <Guest74278> richardcavell: yup
[07:41] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Cost more than the systems
[07:42] <richardcavell> Guest74278: yep
[07:42] <damo1> klown: the root partition must be a linux partition or there is something wrong
[07:42] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Just put cheap cards in.  Select the cards wisely, though.  I have a mate who tried to use multiple cards and had nothing but problems.  Some cards just don't do it well.
[07:42] <richardcavell> Guest74278: So choose a setup that's proved to work.
[07:42] <klown> damo1: so /dev/sdb1 showing boot, and being a linux partition looks like my root partition, correct?
[07:43] <klown> damo1: sorry, I just dont want to mess anything up, still kind of learning.
[07:43] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I plan on doing some gaming in VM you think the SLI setup will be effective inside a VM?
[07:43] <bowa> hey is there a how-to to converting my current partition into lvm2
[07:43] <damo1> klown: go to www.pastebin.com and paste the output of "sudo fdisk -l && df" into a terminal
[07:43] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Jesus...
[07:44] <damo1> klown: then send me the link to the page
[07:44] <carlitos___> I get  this  error: HPMUDEXT could not be loaded. Please check HPLIP installation
[07:44] <carlitos___> :(
[07:44] <richardcavell> Guest74278: You want to use SLI inside a VM?  That's brave.
[07:44] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Lol :-p I'm not talking anything crazy lol, And yes, yes I do
[07:44] <P_Kable> Hello, does someone know what JBoss is please ?
[07:44] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Are you sure you mean SLI?  That means have two or more cards producing one display.  Aren't you talking about just having multiple independent displays?
[07:45] <theatrus> JBoss is a Java application server
[07:45] <carlitos___> :(
[07:45] <klown> damo1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/249002/
[07:45] <DaZ-> P_Kable, google knows
[07:45] <carlitos___> I get  this  error: HPMUDEXT could not be loaded. Please check HPLIP installation
[07:45] <Guest74278> Well if I have 3 cards running 6 displays and I run a game across all six, what dsoes that count as
[07:45] <firecrotch> Ugh now I want a 6 monitor setup at work
[07:46] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Well if I have 3 cards running 6 displays and I run a game across all six, what dsoes that count as
[07:46] <P_Kable> DaZ-=> even on google it is not that clear
[07:46] <klown> damo1: I would assume that its /dev/sda, am i correct.
[07:46] <richardcavell> Guest74278: that's not SLI
[07:46] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Don't use the term SLI to refer to that.
[07:46] <damo1> klown: yes you are correct
[07:46] <klown> damo1: thank you for your help :)
[07:46] <Guest74278> richardcavell: O ok I assumed SLI was using 3 cards in unison
[07:46] <nsgn> a quick wtf. i was copying a file from my local filesystem to a samba share. network connectivity was lost during the transfer and it failed out gracefully via a notification. the problem? the file now exists ONLY in it's partial form on the smb share. the local copy was deleted.   Are you anticipating that it will perceive 6 independent displays?
[07:47] <firecrotch> nsgn: Was it a true "copy" operation, or a "move" ?
[07:48] <damo1> klown: what are you actually trying to achieve?
[07:48] <xXJNovaXx> @amsg~$ Goodnight :)
[07:48] <nsgn> firecrotch: why should there be? i was simply doing a drag and drop
[07:48] <nsgn> if dragging and dropping to a samba share is a "move" that isn't a safe move under ubuntu....that's horrible
[07:48] <richardcavell> Guest74278: SLI is scan line interleave.  It means that one card produces the odd-numbered lines, and the other card produces the even-numbered, or if you have three cards, they split the screen up 3 ways.  Nvidia calls it scaleable link interface for legal reasons.
[07:48] <klown> damo1: well, now that i know the drive im looking for, im going to create a partition, and format it.
[07:49] <nsgn> even in "move" situations, the original should only be deleted upon success of the transfer. this failed out gracefully so ubuntu had the chance to know it failed and should NOT have performed deletion if it was indeed a move
[07:49]  * BitTorrent is away: Linux forever.
[07:49] <firecrotch> nsgn: I agree
[07:49] <nsgn> however, most OSes treat a drag and drop operation to a non local filesystem as a copy unless specified otherwise
[07:49] <richardcavell> Guest74278: So you can double your frame rate by getting two cards.  It might be cheaper than getting one card that's twice as good.  Or you might do it for the very best cards, for which there is no more expensive option.
[07:49] <maxxist> OMG  I just found cairo-dock.  what an awesome dock system
[07:49] <bazhang> !away > BitTorrent
[07:50] <nsgn> so seriously, what the hey went down here? it was just a backup file i was transferring, fortunately...but it really harms my trust in ubuntu for the first time. i've never straight up had a file blown away like that
[07:50] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Hmmm I never thought about game support I just assumed if I maxamized a VM and had a game running it would just run at full possible resolution
[07:50] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Gaming isn't a main concern of mine I will get 3 mid-range cards
[07:50] <firecrotch> nsgn: I recommend filing a bug report on it
[07:50] <Ky|e> !g download ubuntu
[07:51] <richardcavell> Guest74278: The VM still runs in a window
[07:51] <Jaron1> hello I recently got a new machine and cant afford a sound card at the moment i have a set of logitechs usb speakers but when i go to use them it makes a loud noise that sounds like a popping sound........If i run it on windows no noise but since i am using ubuntu (I like it sooooooooo much better than windows except for this problem) is there a way to get em to work right or am i doomed to be stuck using windows xp forever :(
[07:51] <richardcavell> Guest74278: You could span your desktop across 6 monitors and then make the VM window wide enough to fit across all 6
[07:51] <nsgn> i guess i'm just surprised to find such a bug in ubuntu. i'm a new, as of about two months, user. it's been solid and reliable. i use it for business on my laptop. is it really unpolished enough for such an obvious and common thing to lack simple protective measures?
[07:51] <richardcavell> Guest74278: But that would mean the VM is in a non-standard resolution.  You'd need to make sure your Guest OS can live with that
[07:52] <nsgn> that should be elementary in the train of thought of whoever's writing the move functionality. if it doesnt move fully, by god don't go nuking the original!
[07:52] <firecrotch> nsgn: It's very likely that it's an issue that only occurs under an obscure set of circumstances
[07:52] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Ya that is what I was invisioning, trial and error I think that'll be only way to tell, I'm salvating at the though for 6 screen driving sim :-p
[07:53] <firecrotch> nsgn: Can you try to reproduce it?
[07:53] <richardcavell> Guest74278: I'm not sure that it will work the way you want it to
[07:53] <nsgn> firecrotch: i'd hope so, for their sensibility's sake, however i'm on a pretty freaking standard setup. unmodified installation of 9.04, samba server proven reliable
[07:53] <nsgn> firecrotch: i've gotta sleep now, but i'll do so tomorrow. will take overnight to re-generate my backup archive anyway
[07:53] <darl> Fileserver, webserver, chatserver, mailserver... what other sort of server functionality would be neat to play with?
[07:53] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Your driving sim would have to be able to support multiple monitors, or else you'd have to be able to manually change the viewable arc and produce a very high resolution, then manually span the VM across monitors
[07:53] <klown> during install of ubuntu, fstab shows linux was on /dev/sda..now, its showing on /dev/sdc1..why would it change?
[07:54] <firecrotch> nsgn: mind if I PM you?
[07:54] <nsgn> firecrotch: go
[07:54] <xim_> klown,  from what i understand, that can change like if your bios selects a different drive to boot from, that type of thing
[07:55] <Jaron1> well shoot :( i cant find anything on the net about this prob that works for me oh well no audio for me lol
[07:55] <xim_> klown, no personal experience tho
[07:56] <poppy_puffer> can anyone suggest a distro that works with the acer aspire one d250? thx, jayson
[07:56] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I seen Doom running across 9 screens I think I can figure it out when games come
[07:57] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Carmack writes his software so that you can manually change the viewable arc etc
[07:57] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Even Quake 1 allows you to modify all kinds of parameters to allow multiple monitors etc.
[07:57] <mooooooo> I miss q1 day's
[07:57] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I just have to fine some cards now, who is Carmack I haven't heard of him
[07:57] <mooooooo> used to be in a q1 clan
[07:58] <Guest74278> richardcavell: iD Software Carmack?
[07:58] <richardcavell> Guest74278: John Carmack is the guy who programmed Doom 3.  I'm saying that he writes his software so that you can manually change the viewable arc.
[07:58] <richardcavell> Guest74278: yes
[08:00] <obf213> hello. I have that VLC,Totem,MPlayer Bad Alloc error. I can't find out where to fix it. The stuff online is all for old distros...why is this recurrent problem how do I fix this
[08:01] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Thanks atlease now I know ubuntu supports the setup
[08:01] <richardcavell> Guest74278: choose your brand wisely too
[08:01] <Hisham> Hello Everyone ! Any good Twitter Client for Pidgin ?
[08:02] <richardcavell> Guest74278: NVidia drivers are excellent but they're not open source so some people have philosophical problems with that
[08:02] <duckwars> is there a command I can do to end a program without using  a PID
[08:02] <firecrotch> duckwars: killall <processname>
[08:03] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I would prefer open source, but that doesn't give me much choice when it comes to preformance
[08:03] <duckwars> will that also kill the program running on another user?
[08:03] <WilliamC> How do I get more privileges?
[08:03] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Do you know any brands that are open?
[08:03] <firecrotch> duckwars: It should only kill the processes that your user has permission to kill - i.e. those that you started
[08:04] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Well you can get open source drivers for NVidia
[08:04] <wizzer> is there anyway i could remote into my ubuntu box from my vista laptop
[08:04] <WilliamC> I'm trying to install Firefox into root and I don't have root privileges.
[08:04] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Just not the offical ones?
[08:04] <duckwars> I tried running killall rtorrent and it claims "rtorrent(17639): Operation not permitted"
[08:04] <Hisham> duckwars: try with sudo
[08:05] <firecrotch> wizzer: graphically - VNC; command line: ssh
[08:05] <duckwars> hisham: I would but I'm going to use it in... scriptish type thing
[08:05] <richardcavell> Guest74278: the official ones from nvidia work the best but are not open source
[08:05] <richardcavell> Guest74278: there are open source ones programmed by people outside nvidia
[08:05] <wizzer> alright, thanks
[08:05] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Your alternative is ATI.  Nvidia and ATI are the only brands worth considering
[08:06] <Guest74278> richardcavell: ATI just barely relased an update to OpenGL plus bad driver support I'ma stay away from them
[08:06] <richardcavell> I'm an Nvidia fan.  I've tried both.  It's Nvidia's driver support that has me hooked.
[08:07] <nikolam> Hi, packages.ubuntu.com are down again...
[08:07] <duckwars> Let me put this better.  I want to be able to type one word at command, like "rtorrentquit" and have it quit rtorrent.  I know I make a little pico file in my ~/bin/ but I'm not sure what to put in it.  I don't know how to kill a process with some kind of static ID.  Process and job IDs always change, correct?
[08:07] <firecrotch> nikolam: Not for me...
[08:07] <Kottizen> duckwars: You can use killall
[08:07] <Kottizen> killall -9 <NAME (not id) of process>
[08:07] <bazhang> nikolam, loads fine here
[08:07] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Ya, do you think I would be better off running windows native apps in Wine or VM?
[08:08] <Hisham> duckwars:  Use ps -e | grep torrent< or what ever process name>
[08:08] <maxagaz> i'm trying again to have an application (sok onboard) always on top of firefox in full screen mode, how to do it on gnome (devilspie doesn't work with fullscreen applications)
[08:08] <duckwars> just in trying it in comand line i put killall rtorrent and it responded with "rtorrent(17639): Operation not permitted"
[08:08] <duckwars> so I think I need to sudo, which I can't do in the "script" thing
[08:08] <Kottizen> duckwars: killall -9
[08:08] <Kottizen> duckwars: You must have -9
[08:08] <Kottizen> duckwars: To force kill.
[08:08] <duckwars> -9 gives me permission?
[08:08] <duckwars> ok
[08:08] <DaZ-> or maybe.. sudo? :f
[08:08] <Hisham> duckwars:  Use ps -e | grep torrent< or what ever process name> to get the PID
[08:09] <DaZ-> without -9 operation is still permitted <:
[08:09] <richardcavell> If you want games, check with appDB.  Wine is very hit and miss.  And you need good graphics drivers.  I'm on an Intel chipset and the drivers have sucked pretty bad until recently
[08:09] <Q_Continuum> Somehow my system (9.04, 32-bit i386) seems to be spinning down the HD, and as I'm scrolling for example down a page in FF, it sounds like it spins back up, and stalls the system while it does so.  Any way to watch when it is/isn't parking the drive?
[08:09] <Kottizen> DaZ-: Try with sudo before :)
[08:09] <DaZ-> so sudo and -9
[08:09] <richardcavell> Theoretically, a VM should work way better.  But you're trying to get it to do things outside the norm, and so don't be surprised if it stuffs up.
[08:09] <duckwars> I know how to find the PID the problem is I'm tryin got make a cron that restarts rtorrent at certain time intervals.  I just need a command that will kill the process without a PID and without sudo permission
[08:10] <indus> doesnt a vm hog resources?
[08:10] <duckwars> because in my ~/bin I don't know how to make a command shortcut that sudo
[08:10] <duckwars> as I can't put in a password then
[08:10] <indus> its like a virtual os taking its share of hardware resources
[08:10] <Ileden> I'm trying to get bluetooth dialup to work by using the ubuntu bluetooth dialup guide, but when I reach the command "sudo /etc/init.d/bluez-utils restart" there's a problem - I have no /etc/init.d/bluez-utils ! I do have bluez-utils package installed. What is wrong here? How do I proceed?
[08:10] <nikolam> hmmm, thanks bazhang , firecrotch where are you from?
[08:10] <indus> Q_Continuum: ya it happens wiht firefox ,upgrade to firefox 3.5
[08:10] <obf213> yo anyone know how to fix this X11 ever that kills all the video programs vlc/mplayer ...some update just broke it a while back, I installed in like june. I don't see anything on how to fix it online, everywhere says its fixed in update but its not
[08:11] <Kottizen> This also kill a process with a specific name:
[08:11] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Only problem with VM when it comes to games I just read VM video doesn't utilize your hardware and the graphic is simulated
[08:11] <Hisham> try export PATH:$PATH /home/<the script location>
[08:11] <Kottizen> kill -9 `ps -a | grep <NAME> | grep -v PID | awk '{ print $1 }' | tr '\n' ' ' && echo ""`
[08:11] <firecrotch> nikolam: I'm from Wisconsin, USA
[08:11] <duckwars> holy crap
[08:11] <Hisham> duckwars:  try export PATH:$PATH /home/<the script location>
[08:11] <libtech> gaming in a VM sounds awful
[08:11] <Kottizen> It will output an error, but it's not correct.

[08:11] <richardcavell> Guest74278: Virtual Box can do Direct3D and OpenGL
[08:11] <nikolam> firecrotch, I am from europe, serbia, belgrade
[08:11] <darth10> huh?
[08:11] <darth10> k00l
[08:11] <Kottizen> I'm Swedish :)
[08:11] <Ileden> Ehm, strike that....
[08:12] <richardcavell> Guest74278: You're really better off just installing Windows natively.
[08:12]  * Ileden goes to bang himself in the head and shuts up...
[08:12] <drcode> hi all
[08:12] <Hisham> duckwars: RELAX
[08:12] <darth10> Ileden, im from CA :P
[08:12] <darth10> hahaha
[08:12] <Guest74278> richardcavell: A: VirtualBox simulates a basic VESA adapter, so your Guest has no access to the advanced features of your videocard. This includes everything that has something to do with 3D acceleration, including the Special Effects of Compiz on Linux. DirectX dependant games will not run.
[08:12] <Guest74278> NOTE: Since VirtualBox version 2.2.0, Linux Guests can use OpenGL. You do need a Host that is capable of OpenGL. Most Intel onboard graphics are not capable of OpenGL on Windows Hosts, and use Software Rendering in Linux Hosts.
[08:12] <Guest74278> Also, if you use OpenSource drivers on your Linux Host, Hardware Acceleration is probably not (yet) available.
[08:12] <FloodBot3> Guest74278: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:12] <darl> What is a VM?  It creates a virtual environment of another operating system?
[08:12] <Kottizen> FloodBot3: ...
[08:12] <drcode> how I can upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04?
[08:12] <duckwars> kottizen, it won't let me just enter that in command, and says operation not permitted
[08:12] <igor_> Hi, does anybodu know how to adjust vim, so that % will skip commented lines?
[08:13] <duckwars> I'm sorry, but wha tis the word for a small text file in a directory like ~/bin/ so that I just type a word at prompt and it does the command in the file?
[08:13] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I use Linux for my personal time, gaming is very rare for me so maybe just make a 2nd partition for them and save my self the grief
[08:13] <Kottizen> duckwars: Then you must be admin to exit the process. Make a file called "bye_torrent.sh" and put the code into that. Then put the file into /bin. After that, type this in a terminal: sudo bye_torrent
[08:13] <Flannel> duckwars: A shell script
[08:13] <segin_whatever> duckwars: 'sh'?
[08:13] <duckwars> ahh okay, they are officially shell script
[08:13] <duckwars> I will try what you say kottizen, and thank you all
[08:13] <richardcavell> Guest74278: yeah if it's easy enough just install Windows.  I'm on a Mac so installing Windows isn't as easy as it sounds.
[08:14] <roflparrot> My Jaunty boot time is not quick.
[08:14] <DaZ-> Kottizen, pidof is much clearer
[08:14] <WilliamC> Can you run Oblivion in Ubunutu?
[08:14] <Kottizen> duckwars: Shellscript is .sh, like Microsoft Batch is .bat.
[08:14] <richardcavell> It's actually preferable to simulate ordinary hardware rather than present it with the real thing
[08:14] <Kottizen> DaZ-: Ok. Never head of it, explain :D
[08:14] <DaZ-> ...
[08:14] <roflparrot> Is there a way for me to fix my boot time?
[08:14] <Guest74278> richardcavell: Ya, you got parallels use it\
[08:14] <richardcavell> And Virtual Box can do OpenGL in Windows guest on Linux host.   It have the thuings you want, and no bloat.
[08:15] <roflparrot> I had 8.10
[08:15] <roflparrot> I liked it
[08:16] <darth10> huh?
[08:16] <darth10> wat probs?
[08:16] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I think I'll save my self linux troubles and dual boot for when I want to gamel
[08:16] <Kottizen> I can't have it, because my grapthic card is buggy there.
[08:16] <libtech> Guest74278: good call
[08:16] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 9.04] What is the recommended way to terminate (shut down) the Pidgin program?
[08:16] <roflparrot> Sometimes 9.04 freezes and boot time is almost eternal
[08:16] <richardcavell> I was playing Half-Life in OpenGL mode on Windows in a VM on Linux.
[08:16] <Kottizen> bullgard4: Click "File" > "Exit"?
[08:16] <libtech> but can it run crysis?
[08:17] <Kottizen> bullgard4: Or something similar.
[08:17] <richardcavell> Guest74278: But I have to because Windows 7 reportedly doesn't like Mac hardware much, and Apple hasn't come up with its own driver support for Windows 7
[08:17] <richardcavell> Guest74278: If you have a regular PC that was built for Windows, then just install Windows for crying out loud
[08:17] <indus> mbullgard4: kill it from system monitor if it doesnt shut down on using the exit button
[08:17] <libtech> windows 7 is neat
[08:17] <Guest74278> richardcavell: I love Win 7, this is a custom PC
[08:18] <haf1z> Hello, anyone can help me regarding flash player?
[08:18] <indus> whats the price of windows 7?
[08:18] <richardcavell> I like Windows 7 too.  And I hate Windows Vista with a passion
[08:18] <indus> haf1z: i can
[08:18] <Yahiko> lolç
[08:18] <richardcavell> indus: It's free during the beta period
[08:18] <indus> haf1z: what is the problem
[08:18] <haf1z> indus: can u hlp me to install flashplayer plugins
[08:18] <bullgard4> Kottizen: There is no 'File' > 'Exit' or something similar.
[08:18] <Hisham> haf1z: Flash player plugin for Mozila?
[08:18] <indus> richardcavell: yeah but its 3 gb download :) i will buy it soon
[08:19] <haf1z> i already dload the adobe flash player and try to install using package manager..but error wrong architecture i386
[08:19] <haf1z> yes Hisham
[08:19] <libtech> bullgard4: Buddies -> Quit?
[08:19] <indus> haf1z: thats because you are using  a 64 bit OS
[08:19] <Hisham> haf1z: type about:plugins in mozilla
[08:19] <haf1z> oic
[08:19] <indus> haf1z: whats the output of uname -a in a terminal
[08:19] <haf1z> then, do you have any solutions?
[08:19] <indus> uname -a
[08:20] <Kottizen> bullgard4: Any "+" on the top-right?
[08:20] <Hisham> haf1z: indus GOOD CATCH :D
[08:20] <Guest74278> richardcavell: And about using windows, it makes sense if my work takes place on windows, but majority of my work is on Linux, so it makes sense to use it as my base system
[08:20] <haf1z> Linux h3llst0rmMAC 2.6.24-24-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 24 22:15:50 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[08:20] <Kottizen> Or, in the status bar, rightclick on the icon and pick "quit" or "exit". I have never used Pidgin, so I just guess :)
[08:20] <drcode> In ubuntu 8.04 it give me "No new release found" , any idea?
[08:21] <koolhead1> which svn clients u guys use
[08:21] <indus> haf1z: download the 64 bit flash from here,then follow my instructions :) http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-<IP_ADDRESS>.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[08:21] <Hisham> haf1z: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:21] <koolhead1> indus: hey
[08:21] <indus> koolhead1: hi
[08:21] <haf1z> Hisham: that command stand for what?
[08:21] <koolhead1> how have u been?
[08:21] <darl> Anybody else interested in Chrome?  I could never surf the web without my adblock, but the new plugin functionality might bring adblock to Chrome.
[08:21] <indus> koolhead1: iam fine.you are?
[08:22] <Ileden> Ok, this time a real question... I just got bluetooth dialup working (yey!), but I have to run "sudo pon BluetoothDialup", to get it. Running the command without sudo says taht "only members of the 'dip' group can use this command". However, I just added myself to the dip group and the message persists...
[08:22] <indus> koolhead1: i mean do i know u?
[08:22] <koolhead1> indus: koolhead1 == whoami
[08:22] <koolhead1> :P
[08:22] <Ileden> The question being - how do I give myself privledges to run the "pon BluetoothDialup" command
[08:22] <haf1z> indus: download complete for the file u ask me to dload..then, whats next?
[08:22] <indus> haf1z: so downloaded? and  extracted the file?
[08:23] <roflparrot> yeah that's what he asked, who are you?
[08:23] <indus> haf1z: now do sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree
[08:23] <generic> Hello, more of a *nix question but I didn't know where to go. Can anyone help me or direct me to a better irc (or let me email the question?)
[08:23] <bullgard4> libtech: That worked. But that  means that Pidgin has been strangly programmed.
[08:23] <ShapeShifter499> hi
[08:23] <roflparrot> generic, use chatzilla
[08:23] <roflparrot> winners use chatzilla
[08:23] <ruby_on_tails> hello
[08:23] <indus> generic: this is a good enough irc depending on the question
[08:23] <haf1z> indus:  ok, moment pls
[08:23] <DaZ-> roflparrot, fail
[08:24] <roflparrot> ha ha
[08:24] <ruby_on_tails> my keyboard is working in gnome but not in kde
[08:24] <generic> thank your rofl*
[08:24] <ruby_on_tails> can anyone tell why ?
[08:24] <ShapeShifter499> my wifi on my acer aspire one has stopped working, can someone help fix it?
[08:24] <waieez> Hi, i'm having trouble allowing myself permission to write on my harddrive. i've read over the community documentation on fstab, and I think i've followed it carefully but something seems to be missing. I still cannot copy any file onto that harddrive
[08:24] <duckwars> do I need to restart the machine to make a new script put in /bin work?
[08:24] <C4colo> what the hell is going on with sound on ubuntu? why do I have both ALSA and OSS plus the pulseaudio wrapper library installed, all of which are fighting with each other?
[08:24] <haf1z> indus: extract done on desktop the file is libflashplayer.so
[08:24] <theatro> duckwars, no
[08:25] <indus> haf1z: aah gtg see u later
[08:25] <C4colo> I've spent about 6 weeks fucking with my sound settings and still occassionally I will start an application and digital output will cease to function until a reboot
[08:25] <duckwars> I have a script that I edited and it doesn't run the new script when I runt he script
[08:25] <DaZ-> haf1z, ~/.mozilla/plugins
[08:25] <duckwars> i tried logging in and out
[08:25] <indus> haf1z: move the libfralshpayer.so to the hidden mozilla folder plugins
[08:25] <C4colo> can we come up with a standard configuration? like pulseaudio + alsa and no oss?
[08:25] <zheng> Hi, there, I cannot re-install slapd after I uninstall it by apt-get,
[08:25] <indus> haf1z: create the folder plugins under .mozilla then move it there
[08:25] <C4colo> or let's jump on the oss bandwagon and go whole hog OSS
[08:25] <ShapeShifter499> well?
[08:25] <zheng> dpkg: error processing slapd (--configure):
[08:25] <zheng>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[08:25] <zheng> Setting up ldap-utils (2.4.9-0ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>) ...
[08:26] <Hisham> waieez: try the umask=000 is fstab
[08:26] <haf1z> bash: /home/haf1z/.mozilla/plugins: No such file or directory
[08:27] <theatro> duckwars, have you made the script executable?
[08:27] <Hisham> waieez: write it in the options
[08:27] <waieez> hisham: ?? in terminal? type out "umask=000 is fstab" ?
[08:27] <DaZ-> haf1z, guess what you should do
[08:27] <ShapeShifter499> I'll just reinstall..........*sigh*..........about my 5th or 6th reinstall
[08:27] <duckwars> theatro: no I have not, how do I do that?  I must have done that before when I made these scripts
[08:27] <Hisham> waieez: No edit the fstab file
[08:27] <theatro> duckwars, sudo chmod +x filename
[08:27] <Hisham> waieez: sudo vim /etc/fstab
[08:28] <duckwars> ahhhhhhh
[08:28] <duckwars> I see
[08:28] <haf1z> i need to find mozilla folder rite?
[08:28] <hellhound> does anyone use Gyach-E?  I am having an issue with it going out of Auto-Away
[08:28] <waieez> hisham so like this /dev/sda1 /media/extra ext3 defaults,umask=000 0 2
[08:28] <duckwars> theatro: wait though, it was already executable.  It executes the script, but it executes as though it hasn't been edited, even though it  has
[08:28] <Hisham> waieez:  yes
[08:28] <duckwars> theatro: I need it to update
[08:28] <Hisham> waieez: Then umount and mount the drive
[08:29] <DaZ-> haf1z, or if it doesn't exist you need to create it
[08:29] <Hisham> waieez: it worked for me
[08:29] <haf1z> DaZ-: im new to linux environment, so can u guide me?
[08:29] <theatro> duckwars, there is something wrong with the script then
[08:29] <haf1z> where should i create it?
[08:29] <DaZ-> haf1z, mkdir ~/.mozilla;mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[08:29] <Hisham> haf1z: press CTRL + H to show hidden file in gnome
[08:30] <Guest44428> how do i install games and such from 3rd parties?
[08:30] <haf1z> mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/haf1z/.mozilla': File exists
[08:31] <Hisham> waieez: Done ? :D
[08:31] <DaZ-> haf1z, cp ~/something/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
[08:31] <waieez> hisham: trying to unmount. not too familiar with it
[08:31] <DaZ-> haf1z, doesn't matter

[08:32] <jezza> hi there, can any one help with installing Vodaphone Mobile Broadband card?
[08:32] <waieez> hisham: yeah. i dont understand why the icon wouldnt disappear after i typed it
[08:32] <jezza> in toshiba m700, 9.04
[08:33] <haf1z> DaZ-: the *.so file currently here .. /home/haf1z/Desktop
[08:33] <Hisham> waieez: well that doesn't matter
[08:33] <DaZ-> haf1z, mv ~/Desktop/*.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
[08:33] <Ileden> Is there a way to mount a specific extra media (sd card) always into a specific folder?
[08:33] <haf1z> DaZ-: cp ~/Dekstop/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins <- is this the right command?
[08:33] <waieez> hisham: okay so i've unmounted the drive. remoutned it. but it still says that i do not have permission
[08:33] <haf1z> ok ok
[08:34] <Hisham> waieez: hmm!
[08:34] <DaZ-> haf1z, except the dekstop part

[08:34] <Hisham> waieez: set the permission in fstab like this 	auto,umask=000,user,rw
[08:34] <Flannel> Clouse: Is there something we can help you with?
[08:35] <gueux> hi
[08:35]  * mooooooo just burned his first copy of ubuntu... Time to give it a shot
[08:35] <klown> waieez:  sorry to jump in at the middle of your conversation, but what are you trying to mount (your problem seems like a similar one i had)
[08:35] <richardcavell> good luck moooo
[08:36] <obf213> hi my X is broken. its screwing up my video players only. anyone know how to fix it? i haven't been able to find the solution for jaunty. old distros said they fixed it with updates..(why its  broken again i don't know) all programs worked fine for about a amonth then suddenly stopped
[08:36] <Ileden> Problem is, I have a netbook with Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and I have a static SD card in it to give me more storage. Currently it gets mounted to /media/disk - but I'd like to see it under /home/user. It also very annoyingly pops up a file manager each time after suspend/resume, because it has "detected" a new media...
[08:36] <haf1z> DaZ-:  done
[08:36] <haf1z> then
[08:36] <ox> hey need to ask! how to fix this when i boot give me error: FATAL : /lib/modules/2.6-30/modules.dep can't find file or location -> when i go to /usr/src/linux-2.6-30 and try to do make dep give me warning no need to do dep ! how i can fix it then :)
[08:37] <Ileden> So I'd like to somehow statically mount that specific card/slot at a specific directory. How can I do this?
[08:37] <DaZ-> haf1z, now it should work, if it doesn't remove the flashplayer package
[08:37] <waieez> hisham: did that, unmounted/remounted with gparted. and just tried creating a folder with rightclick. didnt work
[08:37] <haf1z> so
[08:37] <haf1z> i need to restart my mozilla ?
[08:37]  * ShapeShifter499 screams mentally, than wonders why every couple of weeks/days he has to reinstall his ubunu
[08:38] <Hisham> klown: any idea about waieez problem?
[08:38] <waieez> klown: i'm trying to write stuff ona drive. but i dont know how to enable the permissions.
[08:38]  * ShapeShifter499 ubuntu
[08:38] <klown> waieez: what type of drive?
[08:38] <haf1z> wil be back
[08:38] <gueux> I have a problem: when I boot, I have an error which tell me to put a "noapic" option. When I put this noapic, the network doesn't work. I've found a solution: put "noapic nolapic acpi=off"; but then, when I stop my computer, I have a message "System halted." and it doesn't stop the computer :(
[08:38] <waieez> klown: its a hitaichi deskstar 7???? Sata

[08:40] <waieez> hisham: then save i mean
[08:40] <Hisham> waieez: does it gives any warning??

[08:47] <Hisham> waieez:  why dont u try umounting/remounting through terminal
[08:47] <waieez> hisham: gksudo unmount /dev/sad1 like that?
[08:47] <ox> waieez which driver? be more specific
[08:47] <Hisham> waieez: sudo umount /dev/sda1
[08:48] <Hisham> waieez: it is umount NOT unmount!!!!
[08:48] <waieez> ox: a hard drive. a Hitaichi Deskstar 500gb internal harddrive
[08:48] <Hisham> waieez: UMOUNT not "UNMOUNT"
[08:48] <waieez> hisham: aha!
[08:49] <ox> waieez as Hisham told you, umount and check options you set it when you re-mount it !
[08:49] <waieez> hisham: it says wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so
[08:50] <Hisham> ox: i told waieez to set the options in fstab to umask=000
[08:50] <ox> waieez u need to specify the type using -t option
[08:50] <rfreiberger> I'm building a server for home use, are Dells or Lenovo easier to find Linux drivers?
[08:50] <waieez> ox: and how do i know what type it is
[08:50] <Hisham> waieez: sudo mount -t <drive file system> /dev/sda1
[08:51] <psycho_oreos> rfreiberger, both are just as hard to find drivers, it just depends on how new those machines you are looking to buy and put ubuntu on
[08:51] <gp_will_be_back> help my ububutu just crashed
[08:51] <Hisham> waieez: wait
[08:51] <ox> waieez using sudo fdisk -l
[08:52] <gp_will_be_back> help my ubunutu just crashed
[08:52] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, how did it crash? you have to be more specific
[08:52] <bluejeans> gp_will_be_back, then get it back
[08:52] <waieez> ox hisham when i used the -t command this long chain of stuff came out.
[08:53] <Hisham> waieez: try sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1
[08:53] <waieez> ox this is what fdisk -l spits out if thats what you wanted /dev/sda1               1       60801   488384001   83  Linux
[08:53] <waieez> hisham, i did and this long chain of stuff came out
[08:53] <gp_will_be_back> while boot it says : unable to mount /dev/disk/by-uid/d125634 blah blah on /root failed invalid argument
[08:53] <psycho_oreos> waieez, do you know what filesystem it originally was? there are many types of linux filesystems
[08:54] <gp_will_be_back> what does it means
[08:54] <Hisham> waieez: strange
[08:54] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, sounds like you messed up the bootloader, what did you do last?
[08:54] <psycho_oreos> err not boot loader just the bootup params
[08:54] <waieez> psycho_oreos: i'm not sure but. i formatted as ext3
[08:54] <ox> waieez you fromat your /dev/sda1 as what file system ?
[08:54] <waieez> ox: ext3
[08:54] <psycho_oreos> waieez, you could try mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 (if sda1 directory exist in /mnt)
[08:55] <psycho_oreos> err sudo
[08:55] <gp_will_be_back> nothing much i was working on it ...when my laptop battery went down ...so it shutdown after that i am getting this error :-(
[08:55] <ox> waieez sudo mkdir /mnt/waieez ; sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/waieez
[08:55] <Hisham> waieez: sudo mount -a :D
[08:55] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, you didn't do any kernel updates?
[08:55] <gp_will_be_back> no
[08:55] <ox> waieez did you modify in /etc/fstab ?
[08:56] <gp_will_be_back> my all data gone ....uni reaserach paper is on it :-(
[08:56] <ox> gp_will_be_back !oups why
[08:56] <ox> gp_will_be_back what happen!
[08:56] <gp_will_be_back> how do i boot it again
[08:56] <gp_will_be_back> nothing much i was working on it ...when my laptop battery went down ...so it shutdown after that i am getting this error :-(
[08:56] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, hmm, not sure if I have dealt with this personally, but you will need to use the ubuntu's install disc (it should have recovery mode) go into that, you will be dropped into console, and you will need to fix up the initrd and/or kernel.. not easy imo
[08:57] <waieez> ox hisham i modified the fstab as /dev/sda1 /media/extra ext3 auto,umask=000,user,rw 0 2
[08:57] <psycho_oreos> why 2 passes?
[08:57] <roflparrot> gp_will_be_back: can you boot the live cd and mount the HDD and then browset o the paper and save it to usb drive?
[08:57] <gp_will_be_back> psycho_oreos: please tell me i will do it ....
[08:57] <Flannel> gp_will_be_back: Try booting to a liveCD.  I doubt your data's gone.
[08:57] <waieez> ox instead of the directory you told me. i  did sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /media/extra
[08:58] <waieez> ox: i cant create a folder with rightclick so i assume i still dont have permissions
[08:58] <gp_will_be_back> i ran the live disk ....its displays disk as single 60 gb disk but cant mount it
[08:58] <bluejeans> gp_will_be_back, more like: boot off a live cd into a consol and rerun grub to fix the bootloader
[08:58] <ox> waieez it mount on ext3?
[08:59] <ernetas`d> Good morning!
[08:59] <gp_will_be_back> which option i choose when i am booting from live disk ?
[08:59] <waieez> ox: media/extra i believe
[08:59] <roflparrot> Morning!
[08:59] <psycho_oreos> I don't think its the boot loader that's at fault, its more like missing or broken initrd
[08:59] <roflparrot> 'try ubuntu without affecting your computer' or soemthing like that
[08:59] <psycho_oreos> waieez, did it return any errors or did it return you back to the prompt?
[08:59] <Keiffer> I have a ssh server i want to connect to. i have both the privkey and pubkeys.. but i can\t connect
[08:59] <ox> waieez i meant when u did sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /media/extra ( it work but ur problem can't write on the drive)?
[08:59] <oldude67> psycho_oreos, couldnt he do a update-grub to fix it?
[09:00] <Stratocaster> salve
[09:00] <beefheart> Question: I wouls like to create a xx.sh that opens up my openvpn. the command I would like to add is "sudo openvpn myopenvpnfile.ovpn" it all works exept the sudo command. anyone know how to run sudo in script please?
[09:00] <beefheart> would*
[09:00] <gp_will_be_back> btw I was using jaunty jackass jakolope ...latest version of ubuntu or something like that
[09:00] <waieez> ox: yeah i could mount. that wasnt the problem. the problem was i couldnt make a folder on my drive
[09:00] <roflparrot> lol
[09:00] <psycho_oreos> oldude67, could but judging by the error I sorta doubt it.. I could be wrong..  I have installed Gtk-gnutella, but I don't know a peer for connect me, anyone can help me?
[09:01] <ox> waieez ah ok try sudo umount /dev/sda1 and try sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/extra -o defaults 0 2
[09:01] <Hisham> waieez: i know i am stupid but try this :D sudo chown /media/extra
[09:01] <psycho_oreos> waieez, if you didn't get any errors, you could then use mount |　grep extra
[09:02] <psycho_oreos> chown would probably need extra params
[09:02] <Hisham> waieez: oh dont try it is is a stupid thing
[09:02] <waieez> ox hisham psycho_oreos: !! okay. let me try ox's first
[09:02] <psycho_oreos> oldude67, heh it used to be the days of either grub at fault and you won't even see grub menu or the kernel and/or initrd with kern panic and what not
[09:02] <gp_will_be_back> I have a jaunty live disk .....i booted from it and pressed f2 after that which option i choose
[09:02] <Stratocaster> I have installed Gtk-gnutella, but I don't know a peer for connect me, anyone can help me?
[09:03] <obf213> ....does anyone know how to fix Xserver as to not crash all video players..
[09:03] <psycho_oreos> Hisham, imo its not, I did that on mine with extra params as root and I could at times create new directories via normal user
[09:03] <iobeng> hello room
[09:03] <roflparrot> gp_will_be_back: to boot the live disk, click on 'try Ubuntu without changing.....' or something like that
[09:03] <gp_will_be_back> should i choose F4?
[09:03] <shoaibi> ibnulislam, i am getting bored :(
[09:03] <gp_will_be_back> ok the first the option
[09:03] <Hisham> shoaibi: OYE
[09:03] <roflparrot> yeah
[09:03] <psycho_oreos> OYE?
[09:04] <shoaibi> Hisham, :P
[09:04] <shoaibi> Hisham, please use english...
[09:04] <Hisham> shoaibi: yea
[09:04] <Stratocaster> I have installed Gtk-gnutella, but I don't know a peer for connect me, anyone can help me?
[09:04] <ibnulislam> shoaibi: Find some job!
[09:04] <Hisham> shoaibi: Grasias :P
[09:04] <waieez> ox: it returned this list of options/information like "for many more details say man 8 mount"
[09:04] <shoaibi> Hisham, ibnulislam go to #ubuntu-offtopic :P
[09:04] <roflparrot> shoaibi: bongu
[09:05] <psycho_oreos> waieez, sounds more like you've used mount tool instead of chown
[09:05] <shoaibi> roflparrot, sorry?
[09:05] <GPL> cant install Photoshop CS4 using Wine on Ubuntu 9.04 | Any Help ?
[09:05] <waieez> psycho_oreos yes i havent gotten to your suggestion yet :( let me try that now

[09:06] <GPL> bahang : i am asking for help, not really offtopic
[09:06] <GPL> bazhang*
[09:06] <bazhang> GPL, not you
[09:06] <roflparrot> lulz... so doods. My boot time is an attrocity. What can I do to make it faster?
[09:06] <GPL> k.
[09:06] <bazhang> GPL, what does the appdb say
[09:06] <gp_will_be_back> psycho_oreos: i have booted again to into live cd ...............how do fixit it now ?
[09:07] <Hisham> shoaibi: come on of-topic
[09:07] <nnutter> In general is it considered safe/stable to upgrade from one major version of Ubuntu to another? I know it is doable and instructions are posted. I just want to know if there is an advantage to doing a clean install. I'd prefer proof/example than a simple yes/no.
[09:07] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, not sure of the boot options off my head but there should be a recovery method, you could try using the "try ubuntu without installing" option
[09:07] <waieez> ox: okay. i decided to change directories since you keep saying /mnt/extra and now. i cant find my drive
[09:07] <gp_will_be_back> yeah i did that
[09:07] <gp_will_be_back> i am logged in
[09:08] <psycho_oreos> waieez, mount| grep sda1
[09:08] <gp_will_be_back> what after that
[09:08] <waieez> ox: well to be precise. i can see it in that directory but it doesnt appear on my desktop
[09:08] <puffkronik> any1 know how to compile dungeon crawl with like, message logging
[09:08] <gp_will_be_back> how do i fix the grub now
[09:08] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, its a long process umm.. you will need to mount your partitions and then do chroot
[09:08] <ox> gp_will_be_back install it
[09:08] <roflparrot> gp_will_be_back: you do not log in with a livecd, anyway browse to your file after mounting the hard drive and find your paper ad back it up
[09:08] <GPL> bazhang : http://i28.tinypic.com/6xrw5h.png
[09:08] <psycho_oreos> or that
[09:09] <gnu-dio> My javascript just stopped working (ff3, ubuntu 8.04), And I can't figure out why. It's not completely non-functioning, but for many javascript heavy sites, it's unuseable. I've already confirmed that it's still fully installed and active, and rebooted just for good measure. Using 3 "javascript test" pages, it fails on 2 and "works" on one. This is totally confusing me as to what could have gone wrong...
[09:09] <psycho_oreos> if you have big enough storage, you could backup your entire /home/$user directory
[09:09] <gp_will_be_back> i ran fdisk -l ...i see no mounted disk
[09:09] <puffkronik> anyone?
[09:09] <waieez> psycho_oreos: interesting. but i still can't make a new folder
[09:09] <ecolitan> can i use the cp command over a network?
[09:09] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, hmm are your drives on a scsi/sata card or something?
[09:09] <DaZ-> ecolitan, scp
[09:09] <gnu-dio> ecolitan: look up scp for that task, instead of cp
[09:10] <roflparrot> fdisk -l shouldn't need anything to be mounted, amirite?
[09:10] <nnutter> ecolitan: only if you have a network share mounted
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> ecolitan, you have to mount it first then you can use cp
[09:10] <ox> gp_will_be_back can't see mount things there! u need to use mount to check or /etc/mtab
[09:10] <puffkronik> do i need gcc installed to edit messages.cc?
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> fdisk -l shows any visible hard drives and their partitions regardless if they are mounted or not
[09:10] <hav0c> can anyone give me a ollydebug for ubuntu..
[09:10] <nnutter> ecolitan: if it's another Linux machine (or Mac/BSD/etc.) scp, as DaZ- pointed out, is a great choice
[09:10] <psycho_oreos> or you can do cat /proc/filesystem I think
[09:10] <roflparrot> maybe his hard drive crashed?
[09:11] <hav0c> can anyone give me a ollydebug for ubuntu..
[09:11] <psycho_oreos> nah I think its missing broken initrd.gz or kernel
[09:11] <ecolitan> to a remote host, i already have a vpn between the two so it seems pointless to run scp down an already encrypted vpn
[09:11] <hav0c> can anyone give me a ollydebug for ubuntu..
[09:11] <hav0c> can anyone give me a ollydebug for ubuntu..
[09:11] <hav0c> can anyone give me a ollydebug for ubuntu..
[09:11] <FloodBot3> hav0c: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:11] <gp_will_be_back> its showing  57 gb media device
[09:11] <nnutter> ignore rocks
[09:11] <ecolitan> and rcp just links to scp
[09:11] <gp_will_be_back> in places
[09:11] <psycho_oreos> gp_will_be_back, but no partitions?
[09:11] <gp_will_be_back> but not the partitions
[09:11] <gp_will_be_back> :-(
[09:12] <roflparrot> ha ha oh noes
[09:12] <nnutter> ecolitan: the encryptiong is so low of overheard, you have no reason not to use it
[09:12] <waieez> ox psycho_oreas hisham, well. now it keeps saying that the mount disagrees with my fstab when i try to unmount
[09:12] <bazhang> GPL, appdb lists it as 'Gold' on their site (Photoshop CS4), you may wish to /join #winehq for further help
[09:12] <ecolitan> nnutter: even for many GB's?
[09:13] <ecolitan> maybe i setup ftp
[09:13] <ox> waieez pastebin your /etc/fstab
[09:13] <gp_will_be_back> how to run fsck or something to fix my hardisk ?
[09:13] <nnutter> ecolitan: waste of time
[09:13] <puffkronik> I did nano messages.cc and i can see it but how do i add the fwrite function
[09:13] <ox> gp_will_be_back what is the file system ?
[09:13] <gp_will_be_back> ext3
[09:13] <Hisham> waieez: yes because you changed the /media/extra
[09:13] <ecolitan> ok i know, i use rsync :)
[09:13] <Hisham> waieez: i think so
[09:13] <roflparrot> does it say that?
[09:13] <waieez> ox er whats the command for pastebin?
[09:13] <HalabundL> I'm trying to set up a printer, and Ubuntu is constantly asking for a root password ... but there is no root password (that I know of) ... I thought I was supposed to used my own password.  What's going on?  How can I get this to work?
[09:13] <nnutter> ecolitan: rsync is a good choice too
[09:14] <ox> waieez no command paste ur /ets/fstab @ http://pastebin.com
[09:14] <roflparrot> HalabundL: yes type in your password
[09:14] <nnutter> ecolitan: rsync would especially be better if it is one many GB file
[09:14] <gp_will_be_back> how do i run fsck from live disk
[09:14] <gnu-dio> Trying again: My javascript just stopped working (ff3, ubuntu 8.04), And I can't figure out why. It's not completely non-functioning, but for many javascript heavy sites, like youtube, it's unuseable. I've already confirmed that it's still fully installed and active, and rebooted just for good measure. Using 3 "javascript test" pages, it fails on 2 and "works" on one. This is totally confusing me as to what could have gone wrong. Ideas anyone
[09:14] <roflparrot> you would have made a root password when you installed Ubuntu
[09:14] <HalabundL> roflparrot: it's not asking for my password, but for a root password (and for a username, which by default is 'root').  It doesn't accept my password (or username)
[09:14] <ox> gp_will_be_back fsck use for
[09:14] <ecolitan> ok thanks :)
[09:15] <nnutter> gnu-dio: trying using a different FF profile or zapping yours
[09:15] <ox> !fsck | gp_will_be_back
[09:15] <roflparrot> HalabundL: do you remember making a rot password when you installed Ubuntu?
[09:15] <gnu-dio> nnutter: ok, trying that....
[09:15] <HalabundL> roflparrot: This system was installed by someone else ...
[09:15] <roflparrot> ask them
[09:15] <gp_will_be_back> ox: my system is not booting its giving following error
[09:15] <HalabundL> roflparrot: Well, they
[09:15] <ox> gp_will_be_back what is the error ?
[09:15] <HalabundL> roflparrot: Well, they're on vacation for two more weeks, so I can't
[09:16] <gp_will_be_back> while boot it says : unable to mount /dev/disk/by-uid/d125634 blah blah on /root failed invalid argument
[09:16] <roflparrot> they made a superuser password, which you will need to be able to do stuff
[09:16] <puffkronik> what's the comand to modify C code in nano?  my friend said I can add an fwrite there
[09:16] <HalabundL> roflparrot: There must be a solution, since I do have the appropriate privileges
[09:16] <gp_will_be_back> so i have booted from llive cd in an attempt to fix it
[09:16] <Hisham> waieez: give a try to sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /media/extra -o default,rw
[09:16] <gp_will_be_back> its showing  57 gb media device
[09:16] <ox> gp_will_be_back when you do sudo fdisk -l , any Condidate "*" display ?
[09:16] <waieez> psycho_oreos hisham ox, http://pastebin.com/f29286a22
[09:16] <roflparrot> perhaps if you boot with a livecd and edit the file witht he root password in it
[09:17] <gp_will_be_back> i ran fdisk -l ...i see no mounted disk
[09:17] <ox> gp_will_be_back hrmm you can't see mount disk there using sudo fdisk -l , pastebin your sudo fdisk -l

[09:20] <puffkronik> I did launch nano
[09:21] <ox> gp_will_be_back pastebin
[09:21] <nnutter> puffkronik: 'nano -w /path/to/file'
