[15:03] <mib_goml1fo0> yeah that was also my reaction....
[15:04] <mib_goml1fo0> I can't ping
[15:04] <montel> mib_goml1fo0: what do you mean you can "connect to the server"
[15:04] <valdur55> where is Xubuntu help channel?
[15:04] <montel> mib_goml1fo0: can you go on websites?
[15:04] <mib_goml1fo0> but I can connect to it through vnc

[15:05] <buzzzz> hello all, could somebody please advise on on whether fsck will do a defrag on an unmounted partition?
[15:05] <montel> mib_goml1fo0: ohhh, so your apache is messed up?
[15:05] <Bman> boss_mc, I did install the sopcast player, but when i click it, it won't open..
[15:05] <MiDdLe> how do I unblock entire folders and files via console?
[15:06] <boss_mc> Bman are you on 64bit ubuntu?
[15:06] <mib_goml1fo0> is it?
[15:06] <arvind_khadri> buzzzz, linux partitions never defrag
[15:06] <xcerca> no ,  just wondering if i could have saved time by downloading the packages with the buntu... but i guess you can't for legal reasons...
[15:06] <sacarlson> mib_goml1fo0:  your servers should do what?
[15:06] <montel> mib_goml1fo0: yes it is, are you using the apache from the repos or what?
[15:06] <_duncan_> how would i find out which graphics driver is currently in use?
[15:06] <mib_goml1fo0> I installed the lampp package
[15:06] <Bman> yes boss_mc
[15:07] <montel> oh. well i would do
[15:07] <xcerca> buzzzz  ,  check out the ext3 file system, or ext4 of google,  the way the files are written it never needs to be defraged
[15:07] <montel> sudo apt-get install apache2
[15:07] <boss_mc> Bman then it's failing the magic number check
[15:07] <mib_goml1fo0> i can't... no connection to the outside

[15:08] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: is it an ntfs partition?
[15:08] <xcerca> buzzzz , what is the partition type ?
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: you dont defrag drives ;)
[15:08] <montel> ActionParsnip: well if it is FAT or NTFS>...
[15:08] <podecoet> gah installed intrepid, restricted drivers as prompted, now X won't start and I'm IRC'ing through a shell. Can someone PLEASE link me to the latest nvidia driver from the website? Lynx hates flash :(
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> montel: yeah you can defrag those, but you dont defrag drives, only partitions
[15:09] <montel> ActionParsnip: i know that, but he probably dosent.

[15:09] <xcerca> whats the best way to install the nVidia driver if it doesn'[t show up in the hardware drivers section,   anybody know why it wouldn't show up in the hardware drivers ?
[15:10] <montel> xcerca: because you dont need it?

[15:10] <xcerca> n/m   it comes up now,  i think i just had to do apt-get update
[15:10] <slyder> i'm trying to boot into a live session of 9.04 and it keeps putting me into busybox, i tried running check disk for defects and it ran for a little bit and then put me back into busybox, i tried doing apic=off it gave me an error and noapic also gave me an error, anyone know why it keeps throwing me into busybox and not letting me into the live session?
[15:10] <buzzzz> ubottu: thank you, i understand it can be avoided in most circumstances however i have placed a massive amount of files through the drive (about 10x drive capacity, most deleted, some were left behind) and believe that minimal instance where fragmentation can occur has been the most common for me, do you know of a way to defragment a filesystem, i believe it has to be unmounted first.
[15:10] <Daremonai> I'm watching something on my linux machine, i connect to it through vnc, but for some reason when I minimize the vnc client here, the video starts to lag on the server, how can I fix that?

[15:12] <TonyTheTiger> does anyone know how to turn the magic lamp window effect on with compiz?

[15:12] <montel> TonyTheTiger: never heard of it
[15:12] <jakuphl> lol
[15:12] <montel> scream: what are you trying to delete?
[15:12] <buzzzz> I've found on various posts, people always claim linux is designed to not fragment etc.. but obviously in some cases it is purely unavoidable, there must be a way to defragment manually..
[15:12] <fbc-mx> buzzzz, basically he's a script backed up by a database of popular responses to questions. People use him to send repetitive information to people.  I heard there's a big improvement in speed.
[15:15] <montel> fbc-mx: im using it right now. you  can easily set it up when you install ubuntu
[15:15] <buzzzz> fbc-mx: I installed ubuntu with ext4, i also have another installation with XFS, both seem to be faster than ext3
[15:16] <montel> buzzzz: no way XFS is faster
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: the disk data is mildly fragmented but due to the nature of modern OSes, the disk reading is fragmented too so having a mild amount of fragmentation can improve speed
[15:16] <scream> jtaji solution worked rm-r -f dir
[15:16] <scream> jtaji solution worked rm -r -f dir

[15:17] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: it is very rare a single file will be read in one go due to the multiple threads and different file read / writes that happen on a disk
[15:18] <fbc-mx> montel, yeah, but I was hoping there would be a script that would convert us from ext3 to ext 4 on the fly. Like starting up with the LIVE DESKTOP CD and typing in a command that will convert it to ext4.
[15:18] <telamon> Hey guys, has anyone of you experience in sending keyboard commands from a gamepad?
[15:18] <badeagle01> telamon: on windows, yes
[15:19] <telamon> badeagle01: same here :/
[15:19] <montel> fbc-mx: i know there is something like that,,,
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> telamon: if you can learn the codes generated in xev you can use that to launch scripts etc
[15:19] <montel> hold on
[15:19] <Boohbah> montel: i heard something about an experimental zfs-fuze
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> telamon: in fluxbox, you'd assign them to virtual keys (like F20)
[15:19] <fbc-mx> montel, oh goody!!!
[15:19] <erUSUL> fbc-mx: it is quite easy to convert a ext3 partition to ext4 but most of the things that make v4 be fater are ot aviable to converted filesystems so it is better to star afresh

[15:20] <cobra-the-joker> Hey guys ....how can i change from kdm to GDM ???
[15:20] <LjL> cobra-the-joker: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[15:20] <montel> Boohbah: thanks
[15:20] <Boohbah> montel: probably not safe for a production environment, but i haven't tried it
[15:20] <buzzzz> montel: thanks, I am well aware of these concepts, however, fragmentation is still possible when you remove files and are low on space and start copying files once over again. Do you see my point?
[15:20] <montel> cobra-the-joker: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[15:20] <telamon> I've managed to set up joy2key to send X core events but for some wierd reason it sends uppercase letters instead of lowercase.
[15:20] <LjL> montel: no
[15:20] <cobra-the-joker> ok ...thanx
[15:21] <montel> buzzzz: yeah
[15:21] <montel> LjL: what?
[15:21] <Conic> Hey, I just stupidly installed the open source flash player. I don't remember what it was called, and I can't find it in the installed applications list.
[15:21] <cobra-the-joker> and another question pls ....where can i get ubuntu source code ?
[15:21] <fbc-mx> montel, Then I will backup my home dir and reinstall my system...  I was also thinking to buy a solid state drive to make it read faster as well.. they are so cheap now a days on ebay.. 128gb SSD for $289 dollars.
[15:21] <LjL> montel: installing ubuntu-desktop won't switch from kdm to gdm
[15:21] <Conic> Help?
[15:21] <montel> Conic: it is a plugin
[15:21] <Boohbah> !gnash | Conic
[15:21] <erUSUL> buzzzz: yes fragmentation is possible but there is no defragmenter for ext3 (other than tar the whole filsystem reformat and untar)
[15:21] <Conic> Aha. That's what it was.
[15:21] <montel> LjL: ummmm, yes it will?
[15:21] <LjL> montel: no, it won't. i've done it several times.
[15:22] <telamon> "dpkg --reconfigure kdm" will pop a chooser dialogue i think.
[15:22] <buzzzz> montel: thanks guys, looks like i am going to dump the contents elsewhere and then move them back sequentially. (although according to the article that may not work also)
[15:22] <montel> LjL: lol. if you install that, then log out, and click sessions, GNOME will be there.
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: you can convert ext3 to ext2, defrag, then convert to ext3 but you will gain very little and defragging stresses the drive physically
[15:22] <montel> buzzzz: np
[15:22] <fbc-mx> is /etc/modprobe.d/aliases depreciated in 9.0.4?? I can't find it anywhere.
[15:22] <LjL> montel: besides, if someone's asking how to switch to kdm, telling them to install the whole of ubuntu-desktop does seem a bit excessive.
[15:23] <LjL> montel: ...? GDM and KDM are the display managers. they're the very thing that SHOWS the "Sessions" button.
[15:23] <louy> hiiiiiiiiii
[15:23] <telamon> So anyone here ever used joy2key?
[15:23] <Boohbah> !hi | louy
[15:23] <buzzzz> ActionParsnip: ext3 to ext2, would that be a matter of mounting the partition as ext2? I hope so, as it would make life easier. :)
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> telamon: i've heard of it
[15:23] <LjL> montel: he didn't ask how to switch from KDE to GNOME, he asked how to switch from KDM to GDM.
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: no, you'd need to remove the journal
[15:23] <louy> how are you alll
[15:23] <louy> i am new here
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: the journal is the thing that prevents the fragmentation
[15:24] <lokita16> ola a todos algunchico de españa de andalucia de 15 o 16 años
[15:24] <buzzzz> ActionParsnip: thanks, i will go down that path, after some serious consideration of whether this is worthwhile on a 2TB partition
[15:24] <LjL> !es | lokita16
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: its really not
[15:24] <scream> Where does the cron file go?
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: but its good to try once just to show how good ext3 is with fragmentation
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> !cron
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> scream: look in /etc
[15:25] <n8tuser> buzzzz -> during boot, usually ext3 is faster
[15:25] <cweinhaupl> how do I find the NIC names, so I add them to the interfaces file
[15:25] <buzzzz> ActionParsnip: I am sorry to come across a bit thick, but really as I understand it, it is impossible to prevent fragmantation alltogether, maybe for general use it is unlikely, i've put about 10tb through a 2gb drive with lots of individual file deletes etc..
[15:25] <Gothfunc> hi.  i have shares on a linux server mounted on this machine.  The user ids are synchronised, but all the documents within the shares appear to be owned by root when they belong to another user.  on the server they are owned by the appropriate user.  chown from the client machine has no effect on the files and reports no errors.  aren't cifs extensions supposed to have full support for permissions?  how can i check that they a
[15:25] <Gothfunc> re enabled?
[15:25] <erUSUL> cweinhaupl: ifconfig -a
[15:26] <n8tuser> cweinhaupl -> ifconfig
[15:26] <Seveas> Gothfunc, don't use cifs gor linux-to-linu communication. Use NFS.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: well, you'll see the result when you are done. but if you think about all the processes accessing the disk
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: the disk access is fragmented, so 100% contiguous files will slow down the access
[15:26] <cweinhaupl> That only gets me lo
[15:27] <cweinhaupl> I need to set up eth0
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: just like daisy wheel printers did not have the letters in alphabetical order, but had the most used ones together
[15:27] <n8tuser> newmember -> try sudo lshw -C network
[15:27] <erUSUL> cweinhaupl: it seems your ethernet card is not recogniced... which onedo oyu have ?
[15:27] <Lademord> Someone help, please. I am running jaunty, and have installed the adobe-flashplugin and flashplugin-installer packages, but I still cannot play YouTube-videos - I simply get a black square where the video is supposed to be
[15:27] <Seveas> cweinhaupl, if 'ifconfig -a' doesn't give you your network card, there's no driver for it.
[15:27] <sacarlson> Gothfunc:  sounds like you the file system might be fat32 or other file system that has no user owner support
[15:28] <Gothfunc> sacarlson: nope, it's ext3
[15:28] <newmember> ty eth1
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Lademord: does it show in about: plugins
[15:28] <newmember> can I rename the PCI card to eth0?
[15:28] <Gothfunc> sacarlson: as i say, the permissions are fine on the server, just not from the client's point of view
[15:28] <HeavRev> so,can i get some help
[15:28] <HeavRev> ive screwed up the dpkg database
[15:29] <erUSUL> newmember: see this file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[15:29] <HeavRev> and sudo dpkg --configure -a doesnt work
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: can you use pastebin and give the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:29] <Seveas> HeavRev, in what way is it broken?
[15:29] <buzzzz> ActionParsnip: i would have expected that if i am copying a 70gb file (typically tarball of /home) to a backup location, then the read operation on the 70gb file should perform at its best when contigious
[15:29] <HeavRev> i tried by command line to upgrade a kernel
[15:29] <erUSUL> Gothfunc: maybe is some mount option(s) missing ?
[15:29] <ph8> is there anyway to get the shutdown button back in the 'System' menu?
[15:29] <HeavRev> initramfs failes post install script
[15:29] <ph8> I've upgraded from intrepid and now i don't have an off button anywhere
[15:29] <jdu> any reason why the graphical utility might complain that a user already exists when userdel and deluser claim that it already doesn't exist?
[15:30] <harlemdavvey> could someone help me with gnome-look.org??
[15:30] <Seveas> HeavRev, pastebin the command you tried and its output
[15:30] <HeavRev> will do :P
[15:30] <HeavRev> 1 sec lol
[15:30] <Gothfunc> erUSUL: username, password, that's all that's needed right?
[15:30] <Seveas> ph8, the shutdown button is now gray :)
[15:30] <harlemdavvey> is there someone who can help me with the site gnome look .org?
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> buzzzz: no, you will never read a 70Gb file in one lump, the OS needs the drive for its other processes too doesnt it, so halfway, it will stop and go and read some other data, then have to come ALL the way back. If some of the data is near the 2nd data it read it will be faster won't it
[15:30] <ph8> Seveas:  gray?
[15:30] <ph8> I just don't think i have it
[15:31] <Seveas> ph8, oh I misread, I thought yoyu meant panel button
[15:31] <ph8> I could add the panel button
[15:31] <erUSUL> Gothfunc: dunno really just shooting at the dark... you may want to ask in a samba channel (if any)
[15:31] <ph8> but i'd quite like the old placement back

[15:31] <Gothfunc> erUSUL: gotcha, thanks
[15:31] <erUSUL> Gothfunc: /j #samba
[15:32] <harlemdavvey> guys can someone give me a hand with the site gnome-look.org??
[15:32] <buzzzz> ActionParsnip: sorry I should have mentioned this drive is not the system drive, it is used entirely for storing userdata.
[15:32] <telamon> nm guys, I found the solution to my own problem. If you want to use a gamepad for key controls then purge joy2key and download this instead http://jojsticken.sourceforge.net/
[15:33] <HeavRev> ok here ya go

[15:34] <Seveas> ph8, I've been digging through gconf-editor but cannot find it. I still have the shutdown button so it isn't gone completely
[15:34] <jdu> ok, I have it. The graphical tool will refuse to add a user (claiming the user already exists) if a group exists by the same name.  So one can delete the group first then add the user.
[15:34] <efu> Can I safely switch from 64-bit ubuntu to 32-bit ubuntu and keep the same home folder (with config files)? Or is there a difference in the various config files on 32 and 64 bit?

[15:35] <efu> Alright thanks, I'm going to try. I don't see why there should be a difference really
[15:35] <jdu> harlemdavvey: basically you can download what looks good (and has a reasonable rating) then drag and drop it into the  appearance dialog and see how it looks.
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: why? you have significantly reduced security. I'd disable it as soon as you can
[15:35] <HeavRev> and sudo passwd root is always tempting :P

[15:36] <LjL> HeavRev: language please. also, feel free to break your system but don't expect support for that here...
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: with sudo you can do EVERYTHING root can
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: sure, lets get your dpkg fixed first
[15:36] <HeavRev> yup, including change roots passwd so i can do it myself
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: can you give the output of: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[15:36] <HeavRev> at least till i have a buntu feel
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> HeavRev: well, just redisable the account

[15:39] <HeavRev> *locked
[15:39] <lflashlnzl> does anyone here have any exp with conky
[15:39] <mimor_coldfeet> relix, are you the guy that's on #wina from time to time?
[15:39] <jdu> lflashlnzl: some.
[15:39] <newmember> dennis00: sure
[15:39] <narcoclepsy> anyone know a way to stop rhythmbox from searching for plugins cyclically? It never did this prior to 9.04 update :-)
[15:39] <narcoclepsy> even if i hit cancel it comes up again, and it never finds anything.
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> LjL: its worth a crak
[15:39] <xangua> narcoclepsy: install codecs ............¿
[15:40] <HeavRev> cpio: ./bin/udevinfo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory seems to be the prob
[15:40] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: um sorry to ask this,but whats conky? :P is it konqueror?
[15:40] <lflashlnzl> i have setup the tcp_portmon settings but i dont want the host names but the IP address is this possible?
[15:40] <LjL> ActionParsnip: if you say so. it only removes a lock, i don't what it has to do with this
[15:40] <mimor> relix, are you the guy that's on #wina from time to time?
[15:40] <narcoclepsy> xangua: not the case all the codecs are there its looking ro type x-application/java???
[15:40] <jdu>
[15:40] <sacarlson> dennis00: I'm not sure about realvnc but if not realvnc there must be others.  so yes
[15:40] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, is a system monitor http://conky.sourceforge.net
[15:40] <sceners_n00b> realvnc is the one
[15:40] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: ah..
[15:41] <Lademord> ActionParsnip any ideas? It shows up in the plugin section so I guess it is installed correctly. Also, the flash  animation at http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ shows fine (albeit without sound)
[15:41] <Lademord> Epiphany has same problem
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Lademord: are you running a 64bit ubuntu?
[15:41] <Lademord> nope
[15:41] <lflashlnzl> ive been look @ the settings and it does seem like you can but askin just incase im missin something
[15:41] <Blodskur> I just installed the repository for Opera using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1148100 but I can't see it anywhere?
[15:41] <Lademord> I wish I was
[15:41] <Lademord> ActionParsnip, no I'm not
[15:42] <newmember> dennis00: if I remember correctly, when you try to connect to realvnc server on ubuntu you need to connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8001  you need to add the desktop port.  You cant just use the IP address
[15:42] <dennis00> thanks! it works, I just found out that the default ubuntu remote desktop protocol is actually...... VNC
[15:42] <brycearoni> hello?

[15:48] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: im always at the lookout for good themes ;) currently using mac4lin+Ecliz
[15:48] <elky> markodimiskovski, do you know what ethernet card it has?
[15:48] <nirod> hello
[15:48] <wett> thanks for the help guys
[15:48] <narcoclepsy> these are two images related with the cyclical rhythmbox search for plugins ordeal i am trying to solve : (image one http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=s4qupx&s=5) (image two http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2lkb7ec&s=5)
[15:48] <markodimiskovski> ActionParsnip : it was working.  the it stopped, until i physically unplugged it and plugged back itn
[15:48] <buzzzz> thanks again everybody, have a nice day :)
[15:48] <markodimiskovski> elky : its a intel 82562EZ
[15:48] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, so over anything the MAC on linux if you want mac them get the dam MAC.. but thats my option
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: try: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart instead
[15:49] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: could you add a thin border to that? :)
[15:49] <markodimiskovski> ActionParsnip : i tried that lol :/
[15:49] <sacarlson> wett: I wiped out my friends ipod with rhythumbox  not sure what I did.  but it did works sometimes.
[15:49] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, yea you could do anything you want the setting are so many
[15:49] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: oh..i keep changing the theme everyday
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: weird, i'd reboot the router
[15:49] <markodimiskovski> already did that too
[15:49] <markodimiskovski> ya know what
[15:49] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: ok im thinking of giving it a shot :D
[15:49] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, lol me too, trying to keep one theme
[15:49] <markodimiskovski> i'm beginning to think it smy network card

[15:50] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, there are lots of scripts around to learn our to change anything you want.... yea sudo apt-get install conky
[15:51] <carick> wett: mpd is music player daemon, so it is a server that is always running with low resource usage and then you use a client to play it, ncmpc is one such client (that is like cplay) but there are actually gui interfaces
[15:51] <elky> markodimiskovski, that particular card model seems to have some issues.
[15:51] <carick> wett: ...as well
[15:51] <markodimiskovski> elky : really? never had these issues until right before i switched to 9.04
[15:51] <shadeslayer> jacobo_dos_dos: which one? i dont understand portugese

[15:52] <ActionParsnip> nnull: if you mean to use stuff in your home dir you can simply use ~/ and it will use the current users home dir
[15:52] <markodimiskovski> jacobo_dos_dos : what window manager do you have? i like that desktop.  and what dock is that
[15:52] <nnull> ActionParsnip thats the one ta
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> nnull: glad to help
[15:52] <Yanick_> the forum link I posted seem outdated too
[15:52] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: does conky need nautilus to draw conky?
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> nnull: you can also use /home/$USER  same effect
[15:53] <shadeslayer> s/conky/it
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> nnull: or /home/`whoami`
[15:53] <jacobo_dos_dos> markodimiskovski: metacity, the dock is Gnome Dp with Dock theme
[15:53] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, sorry dont know im still a n00bie
[15:53] <jacobo_dos_dos> shadeslayer: gnome-colors - Google Code - http://code.google.com/p/gnome-colors/
[15:53] <jacobo_dos_dos> Gnome Do with Docky theme markodimiskovski *

[15:54] <mustu> hello! I am unable to boot from XP cd on a (XP,Fedora10) dual boot system. Same issue faced on Ubuntu 8.10+Xp dualboot System.
[15:54] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl: try screenlets too :)
[15:54] <jacobo_dos_dos> markodimiskovski: ammmm....................... is the default in gnome desktop...
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: theres also LXDE or fluxbox if you like lightweight DE
[15:54] <shadeslayer> jacobo_dos_dos: which is the best theme?
[15:54] <LjL> mustu: perhaps it's an XP problem then...?
[15:54] <markodimiskovski> elky: ok thanks!  maybe i'll just buy a new etho card :/
[15:54] <jacobo_dos_dos> shadeslayer: gnome-colors - Google Code - http://code.google.com/p/gnome-colors/
[15:54] <lflashlnzl> shadeslayer, mmm dont know sorry ive just been learning this today... ill have a look @ screenlets
[15:54] <elky> markodimiskovski, if it's mission-critical, it might be worth the pennies.
[15:55] <markodimiskovski> ActionParsnip : i was gonna do openbox with that cario dock actually
[15:55] <doc_brown> what acts as "program files" (like windows) in ubuntu?  I'm trying to make a desktop shortcut for a program, but do not know which file and directory to point it to.  =/
[15:55] <shadeslayer> jacobo_dos_dos: out of these http://code.google.com/p/gnome-colors/downloads/list
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: fluxbox is based on openbox but both are excellent
[15:55] <LjL> doc_brown: there isn't a direct equivalent, but for your purposes, it's probably /usr/bin
[15:55] <jacobo_dos_dos> shadeslayer: it is the full set............... gdm, gtk, icons
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: great shortcut key support :)
[15:56] <LjL> doc_brown: if you know the program's command name, then "which commandname" will tell you the full path
[15:56] <Lademord> dtchen, just tried that. Didn't work. Same ol' black box
[15:56] <jacobo_dos_dos> shadeslayer:  it is the full set............... gdm, gtk, icons *
[15:56] <mustu> Want to reinstall XP but it not booting into setup. It will work if I delete the whole partition table with fdisk using win98 CD. seems existance of Linux partitions don't let the XP setup run.
[15:56] <markodimiskovski> ActionParsnip : I used to run fluxbox on  my old machine, but my sisters and mom wont know how to work it lol.  with openbox i can add a nice dock and give them some icons to click make it easy lol
[15:56] <doc_brown> LjL, wow thanks
[15:56] <dtchen> Lademord: dpkg -l nspluginwrapper
[15:56] <doc_brown> LjL, like "which vmware"   ?
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: try a few, see which they like
[15:57] <jacobo_dos_dos> markodimiskovski: you can install fluxbox and other desktop easier to use for you family
[15:57] <markodimiskovski> yeah
[15:57] <LjL> doc_brown: if the command is actually called "vmware", yes (the vmware player for instance was called "vmplayer" last time i tried, though)
[15:57] <markodimiskovski> i'm gonna experiment a little
[15:57] <markodimiskovski> lol
[15:57] <markodimiskovski> first i need this network card to work
[15:57] <LjL> doc_brown: if you know the package name, you can also do "dpkg -L packagename | grep bin"
[15:57] <doc_brown> i got it!  thanks
[15:58] <Lademord> dtchen, finds no packages
[15:58] <ActionParsnip> markodimiskovski: definately

[16:00] <jacobo_dos_dos> incorporate mplayer on desktop bar panel? harlemdavvey1 ¿¿
[16:00] <sacarlson> harlemdavvey1: I think you just right click on the panel and select add
[16:00] <carick> lflashlnzl: gnome-do and AWN are used for difference purposes
[16:01] <Jezz> Hi
[16:01] <Jezz> What is the easiest way to remaster Ubuntu?
[16:01] <ActionParsnip> spaceBARbarian: does it work with: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:01] <shadeslayer> lflashlnzl jacobo_dos_dos this too http://imagebin.org/48431
[16:01] <user01> mmm how do i configure wireless network?  i upgraded from 8.04 and it erased all my settings and is now requiring a BSSID and MAC address
[16:01] <carick> Jezz: what do you mean
[16:01] <Jezz> have to do that for linux class
[16:01] <Lademord> dtchen I think it was 10 rc2 or something like that. However I've purged it again as I'm trying ActionParsnip s method right now
[16:01] <harlemdavvey1> sacarlson: yea that is logical but i would like to add the program when it is playing the music
[16:01] <Jezz> To customize Ubuntu
[16:01] <Megatron_> hi guiez, I am now on 9.04 yay

[16:02] <harlemdavvey1> sacarlson: for exemple.. i would love to control my tracks from the panel bar.. with no need to control the player by opening the program window
[16:02] <Megatron_> how do I get the start menu to the bottom of the screen??
[16:02] <carick> Jezz: ctrl+alt+f1 will be different :P
[16:02] <montel> Megatron_: Ubuntu System Pannel?
[16:02] <shadeslayer> Jezz: customize as in GUI customize or CLI

[16:17] <jacobo_dos_dos> aggg
[16:17] <jrib> Tech-Frog: 1) it's not technically possible.  You can't change the install location of the programs.  You could put /usr on a different partition if you wanted.  2) You can't use an ntfs partition since it doesn't let you have unix-style permissions that programs depend on
[16:17] <usser> Tech-Frog, there's really no point. in all my years using linux i've never exceeded 15gb for / partition

[16:18] <Tech-Frog> Non what?
[16:19] <LjL> podecoet: useful contribution that
[16:19] <Tobydarnley> Hi having a problem, i recently upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 and vnc is no longer running even though remote desktop says it is enabled, and 2ndly although the machine has internet access it is unable to browse my windows network
[16:19] <usser> podecoet, hm looks fine. maybe nv doesnt support SLI
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> Tech-Frog: what file system do youu wish to defrag?
[16:19] <Captain_Haddock> Hi, I have the ubuntu alternate ISO on my desktop... I have a new laptop with just freedos on it.. will I be able to install ubuntu on the laptop without burning it to a CD?
[16:19] <Tech-Frog> NTFS
[16:19] <Captain_Haddock> network boot or something?
[16:19] <podecoet> usser: :\ tried the proprietary drivers through packages & nvidias site, everything was fine under Hardy, but interepid shits itself
[16:19] <Tech-Frog> Captain_Haddock: Live USB?
[16:19] <LjL> Tech-Frog, recently enough we couldn't even write to NTFS at all...
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> Tech-Frog: i wouldnt do anything but read and write files to ntfs. its proprietary to MS and could damage the data
[16:20] <Captain_Haddock> Tech-Frog: I just have the alternate ISO
[16:20] <NativeAngels> can someone here help me with starting a xen vm
[16:20] <usser> podecoet, the latest drivers from nvidia.com? did you uninstall drivers that came with ubuntu?
[16:20] <tones> tip for everyone, if youre comfortable with what you have, stay with it. my printer has gone kaput since i updated to jaunty (9.04)
[16:20] <jeffreyf> Captain_Haddock: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[16:20] <Captain_Haddock> thanks jeffreyf; looking
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> Tech-Frog: i'd defrag it in an MS OS like they intended
[16:21] <mzz> Tech-Frog: afaict it's planned but not implemented (see http://www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfsdefrag )

[16:22] <Tech-Frog> Also, is there a partition editor that I can run inside ubuntu? I use partition magic currently but all the rebooting is annoying.
[16:22] <tones> Tech-Frog: gparted
[16:22] <usser> podecoet, open synaptic and pretty much delete all things nvidia, except nv driver, and modaliases packages
[16:23] <Tech-Frog> Does gparted have NTFS suppotr?
[16:23] <mzz> Tech-Frog: some, check their homepage
[16:23] <usser> podecoet, there also should be nvidia-uninstall utility that came with drivers from nvidia.com
[16:23] <tones> Tech-Frog: yes, but it relies on the partition being clean
[16:23] <Tech-Frog> clean?
[16:23] <mzz> Tech-Frog: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php that is
[16:23] <khensthoth> Tech-Frog: But you can't resize, edit mounted partitions inside Ubuntu
[16:23] <usser> podecoet, make sure you have linux-headers package corresponding to the kernel you're running before reinstalling the driver
[16:23] <Tobydarnley> K, Actionparsnip, i will
[16:23] <tones> Tech-Frog: clean meaning not corrupt and properly shut down
[16:23] <roxahris> Hey, where are the Qt 4 settings stored?
[16:24] <Tech-Frog> Is ntfsprogs installed as standard?
[16:24] <Tobydarnley> could it be when i upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 to "kept" some settings, should i have overwritten with new'un's
[16:24] <mzz> roxahris: iirc at least some of them in ~/.config/Trolltech.conf
[16:25] <matt7676> how is it possible to install additional software when using LiveCD? Is some part of LiveCD copied into RAM during booting and root partition is created also on the RAM and then new software is installed on RAM as well?
[16:25] <jeffreyf> Tech-Frog: it is under SYSTEM, ADMINISTRATION, PARTITION EDITOR on the liveCD.  You cant edit mounted partitions (like when you boot from HD to Ubuntu).....run the liveCD and you should be able to resize your parts.
[16:25] <trentg> Is there a music player that will play from a bluetooth folder for gnome?
[16:25] <usser> matt7676, you can install but once you reboot the packages that you installed will be gone
[16:26] <Tobydarnley> The Linux box is hosting my school Moodle server, so i need remote access through vnc and i need it to access the windoze network
[16:26] <Tech-Frog> Live USB if you give it extra space can keep packages right?
[16:26] <potyl> Hi, I would like to know if it's really easy to install a dual boot on a macbook? I would like to dual boot between OS X and Ubuntu
[16:26] <jeffreyf> matt7676:  The LiveCD is memory only...it allows you to "try before you buy".  Once you reboot, the changes are ether.
[16:26] <usser> Tech-Frog, you need persistent usb install
[16:26] <usser> !persistent USB
[16:26] <usser> !persistent
[16:27] <podecoet> usser: how do I determine the running kernel version?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> !usb

[16:28] <scream13> yes
[16:28] <potyl> tones: I found a lot of old wiki pages and blogs saying that it was possible but difficult
[16:28] <potyl> I would like to know if things changed
[16:28] <usser> potyl, look into refit, its a boot manager for macs, really nice.
[16:28] <tones> potyl: i think it should merely be a matter of chainloading the hfs partition
[16:28] <potyl> This page has a warning that's not too convincing  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation
[16:29] <tones> potyl: i dont know that well, i have never used mac
[16:29] <anurag89> tones: whats chainloading ??
[16:29] <yowshi> i need help recording from a logitech webcam communicate stx
[16:29] <usser> potyl, its not difficult at all, leave some space for ubuntu, install refit from mac osx and reboot from ubuntu live cd install as you would on windows, pay attention to partitioning
[16:29] <potyl> is there a channel for mac users?
[16:30] <tones> anurag89: when grub passes control to another bootloader such as the windows ntldr bootloader
[16:30] <chuggs> using 9.04 .28.11  do I need to roll a kernel to get .27  ? easier way?
[16:30] <potyl> usser: thanks, did you tried it?
[16:30] <usser> potyl, yes
[16:30] <potyl> usser: ok, I'm convinced
[16:30] <potyl> in the worst case is it easy to wipe the whole thing and just run ubuntu?
[16:31] <usser> potyl, smooth as butter, and refit is so much better than mac's built in. boots usb's, can boot windows, linux mac osx

Think it maybe because i "kept" some settings during the upgrade process. How can "reset" the new settings.
[16:31] <chuggs> khensthoth,  thanks
[16:31] <usser> potyl, you probably wont have to wipe it, installation is really straightforward
[16:31] <potyl> usser: ubuntu 9.04 works fine?
[16:32] <usser> potyl, on my imac, the only thing thats not supported is ati mobility radeon x1300, so im using oss drivers but compiz works

[16:32] <yowshi> i need help recording from a logitech webcam communicate stx

[16:32] <Skizoboy> hey again
[16:33] <Melancholy> Hello, yesterday i had problems with automounting usb devices, i got that fixed, but once it was done my audio went missing
[16:33] <khensthoth> Tobydarnley: Configuration files for most applications are stored in your /home, with a .appname folder or file. Try finding and deleting them. That will reset it.
[16:33] <styx> hi there can someone tell me if the hardware will be damaged when i use a kubuntu 64bit version on a non 64 machine?
[16:33] <Melancholy> And it isnt muted

[16:33] <fbc-mx> Note: The "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6" method of disabling IPv6 no longer works. It goes back to enabled after a reboot.
[16:34] <deany> can i mount an ext4 formatted partition as ext3?  just to get rid of the lockup problem when deleting large files
[16:34] <usser> styx, a 64 bit version on 32 bit hardware
[16:34] <potyl> styx: hardware shouldn't be damaged at all, it will just not work
[16:34] <jeffreyf> styx: It will not boot up.  I have never heard of hardware being damaged by an OS.
[16:34] <Tobydarnley> whats the filename for VNC then vinagre or something?
[16:35] <LadyNikon> jeffreyf: well.. it can be damaged by an os.. the question is .. will it even install.
[16:35] <mzz> deany: no (that's fixed through extents, which the ext3 fs module doesn't understand)
[16:35] <styx> thx @ all that is what i thought
[16:35] <yowshi> i need help recording from a logitech webcam communicate stx
[16:35] <deany> mzz, cant be fixed, its still happening and i`m all updated
[16:35] <potyl> I think that only thing that can be damaged is a very old and cheap CRT monitor if wrong configuration is given to it
[16:35] <mzz> deany: really? how locked up is it, and is this a fresh install or an ext3 partition you converted to ext4?
[16:35] <potyl> Today you will simply not find such hardware!
[16:36] <Skizoboy> bah you could bur ur GPU by overclocking it

[16:38] <shriphani> Skizoboy, I would like to boot into it quite a few times henceforth. I don't want to boot into OS X, fire up vmware and then start ubuntu.
[16:38] <mzz> it's quite possible to damage hardware through software, but I'd be amazed if attempting to boot a 64 bit kernel on 32 bit hardware damaged anything instead of simply locking up or refusing to boot
[16:38] <potyl> you can also add the option --prune, it will wipe all data stored by the program (in case of a deamon or a database)
[16:38] <RoC_MasterMind> if anyone has an ~/.aumixrc, can you send it to me?
[16:39] <pshr> atleast can i know how to disable the popups when i increase or decrease the brightness its really annoying from past few weeks

[16:40] <drbobb> ok, jaunty 32bit needs some serious workarounds to work (not too well) on my laptop. That's still better than jaunty 64bit, which fails totally
[16:40] <mzz> Yanick_: link me to the ebuild?
[16:40] <RoC_MasterMind> KingKimi, put it in an encrypted filesystem
[16:40] <RoC_MasterMind> KingKimi, or GPG encrypt it.
[16:40] <Yanick_> zz: http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=106584
[16:40] <mzz> Yanick_: (preferably include the "m" too :)
[16:40] <jeffreyf> LadyNikon: I can see that....interesting.
[16:40] <Diwas> guys any help? for the torrent problem?
[16:41] <Yanick_> zz: what? I took this from http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Canon_Pixma_Series
[16:41] <styx> KingKimi: i use truecrypt
[16:42] <LadyNikon> jeffreyf: lets just say.. i have burned up some hardware >.>
[16:42] <mzz> Yanick_: as I thought, compiles a 32 bit package. I don't know where the corresponding 32 bit libraries live in ubuntu.
[16:42] <RoC_MasterMind> Yanick_, check out this page: http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_iP2200 and this one http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/software/linux/
[16:43] <mzz> Yanick_: (you keep doing "zz: ..." where you want to do "mzz: ..." to trigger my hilight...)
[16:43] <KingKimi> if i uninstall a wine software..... from the applicatioons > wine ..... its not getting erased... how to get rid of it ????
[16:43] <yowshi> grrr brb a frozen skype has kiboshed all future webcam activity until a reoot
[16:43] <Yanick_> RoC_MasterMind, those are for x86 system, I'm on amd64
[16:43] <jeffreyf> Diwas: repost the question
[16:43] <khensthoth> KingKimi: If you click on the application, does it still work?
[16:43] <potyl>  yowshi:  cheese can record from your webcam
[16:43] <jubes73> i have a pentium 3 hp vectra computer and trying to install ubuntu via the cd drive; however, for some reason it won't boot up from the iso file on the cd. i booted up with dos and i verified the cd can be read and it does see the iso file... does anyone have experienced the same thing and what the work around is? thanks in advance
[16:43] <mzz> Yanick_: that ebuild compiles a 32 bit driver
[16:43] <Skizoboy>  Jubes
[16:43] <Yanick_> mzz, sorry, your nick appeared on my screen as a square and two z's sorry :)
[16:44] <mzz> Yanick_: your font must be horrible :P
[16:44] <Skizoboy> Iso images shouldn't be burned like any orher file
[16:44] <Yanick_> mzz, well, anyway
[16:44] <KingKimi> khensthoth, no,.... its uninstalled
[16:44] <KingKimi> khensthoth, but the menu entry is not getting off
[16:44] <khensthoth> KingKimi: Then just remove it by editing the menu.
[16:44] <jones> is there a way to set totem to not show the controls when opening a video? if i right click it gives me the option to toggle them off and on but always opens new videos with them on. I would like to set it to open with no controls. i looked in the preferences and there is not an option for it. does any one know if there is a config file for totem that i could look into? thanks for any advice.
[16:45] <khensthoth> KingKimi: Right click on your Ubuntu menu on the panel. Edit from there.
[16:45] <jubes73> Skizoboy... oh please elaborate.. how should the iso file be burnt? sorry i'm a newbie when it comes to burning stuff.
[16:45] <Yanick_> mzz, I've looked everywhere to find how I can compile these drivers, but I'm no Linux guru, so all this is unsettling
[16:45] <eimajenthat> Hello all.  My machine (fresh load of 9.04) shutdown unexpectedly.  I was wondering if and where Ubuntu might have stored any log files about the event.
[16:45] <extraboss> SDFDSF
[16:45] <extraboss> 0e060e0f0e42
[16:45] <Skizoboy> you need to find some sort of "burn an image" menu in your burning software
[16:45] <extraboss> 0e140e2b0e010e14
[16:45] <Diwas_> sorry i got disconnected. so is there any solution?
[16:46] <Yanick_> mzz, most of the answers are for x86, but nothing for amd64 except Turboprint... (ew)
[16:46] <Diwas_> hello everyone. i have jaunty and there's a problem. i cannot download any torrent. no matter which software i use everyone of them gives error such as "Status: Operation not Supported"(DELUGE) "Error: Request not Supported"(WINE+utorrent) "couldn't write to path <path>" (Ktorrent). I have destination drive ntfs but also tried to download in / but still doesnt help. It all started since...
[16:46] <Diwas_> ...Intrepid. I have posted a thread regarding this in ubuntuforums but no reply till today. any help? suggestions?
[16:46] <KingKimi> khensthoth, thnx
[16:46] <mzz> Yanick_: they are not good drivers. It would probably be better if gutenprint supports this printer (I'd expect it to in the future)
[16:46] <pshr> how to disable the pop ups in ubuntu
[16:46] <jubes73> thanks Skizoboy
[16:47] <Skizoboy> You're welcome :)
[16:47] <Yanick_> mzz, I certainly hope so. how hard could it be? as one have said, it's merely a text file
[16:47] <Yanick_> mzz, I would edit it if I had some base... and time :)
[16:47] <mzz> Yanick_: (I have compiled them on a 32 bit system, they're part binary blob (which is why they won't compile as a 64 bit app) and the part that isn't blob is lacking decent error handling, so the results of running a miscompiled driver are confusing)
[16:47] <jeffreyf> diwas: Try making the file destination your desktop
[16:47] <RoC_MasterMind> if anyone has an ~/.aumixrc, can you send it to me?
[16:48] <Diwas_> jeffreyf: yes, i tried that as well. but it doesnt work.
[16:48] <mzz> Yanick_: ("confusing" in a "hey, why is my system running so slowly? Oh, there's a stale driver process attempting and failing to spawn some other process as quickly as it can" way)
[16:48] <Yanick_> mzz, hehe
[16:48] <askand> Hi, I want to use a 1TB as my "Home" and the 250GB as /, can someone who knows how to do it check my thread?
[16:48] <askand> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7244430
[16:48] <Yanick_> mzz, well, thanks for your help. I'll keep on using my wife's computer (windows) to print stuff :(
[16:49] <mzz> Yanick_: because you know, if /usr/local/bin/whatever doesn't exist, obviously attempting to spawn it a few million times will make it exist!
[16:49] <Skizoboy> Askland?
[16:49] <yowshi> wow that was one hell of a crash it actually tripped upo the reboot command
[16:49] <Skizoboy> it's rather simple, what's the problem?
[16:49] <mzz> Diwas_: how large a file are you trying to create?
[16:50] <jeffreyf> Yanick: why kind of printer?
[16:50] <potyl> yowshi: try to use cheese or take a look in here http://web.sarathlakshman.info/tech-blog/
[16:50] <wtl> how do i know my ethernet controller? :)
[16:50] <Diwas_> mzz: its around 700mb. but it doesnt matter. last night i tried to download Arch but it showed the same problem too. and in XP it works without any problem
[16:50] <potyl> yowshi: replace gst-launch  by gst-launch-0.10
[16:50] <mzz> Diwas_: does anything non-torrent fail similarly?
[16:51] <Yanick_> mzz, despite it all, I'm glad that Ubuntu runs stable enough on this Studio XPS 16. My other system was an Inspiron 5150, and was horribly unstable, so I was forced to use XP. I won't complain too much about a stupid Canon driver :)

[16:51] <yowshi> potyl: thanks i will take a look
[16:51] <mzz> Diwas_: strange. You could try to strace one torrent app to see what it's actually failing on...

[16:52] <bazhang> extraboss, for Thai support, /join #ubuntu-th
[16:52] <Skizoboy> lolol good to know
[16:52] <extraboss> don't know why
[16:52] <mzz> Diwas_: "strace inserttorrentapphere 2>/var/tmp/stracelog", then exit the app as soon as you've triggered the error. The logfile will probably be insanely huge though.
[16:53] <mzz> Diwas_: (using a text-based app would be preferable, its logfile would be smaller)

[16:53] <yowshi> potyl: with what? cheese works but crashes when i go to record
[16:53] <potyl> yowshi: if it doesn't work then go and look at the posts where gst-launch is used
[16:53] <RWolf> how to get Firebird SQL 2.1 work under JJ ?
[16:54] <mzz> Diwas_: rtorrent could work, but if you're not familiar with it yet feel free to log one of the gui-based ones first.
[16:54] <potyl> yowshi: try from the command line: gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! autovideosink
[16:54] <mzz> Diwas_: then just upload the logfile somewhere and I'll have a look

[16:58] <scix> hey all -- I have a strange bug I can't figure out. I'm trying to add a repo from launchpad for eclipse 3.4, I added the repo to software sources, and added the correct auth key. But the repo refuses to show up in syntaptic. I have refreshed.. Any idea what could be wrong?
[16:58] <dtchen> matt_: if you have an https://launchpad.net account, please run "ubuntu-bug pulseaudio"
[16:59] <matt_> dtchen: I do not :(
[16:59] <dtchen> matt_: then, tell me the bug report # that you filed
[16:59] <sinan> ubuntu is great operating system... if only i could use Adobe products, Microsoft Office and Corel products i would forever switch to it.
[16:59] <scix> ?? wine ?
[16:59] <ghouly> hi all, a question about upgrade from jaunty to hardy : i downloaded the jaunty alternate cd iso to speed the upgrade up since i have low bandwidth,  i have to add it to /etc/apt/sources.list  somehow, right ? what's the syntax for adding a cd like that ? i've got it mounted on /media/cdrom0
[16:59] <sinan> does adobe CS2 work with WINE?

[17:00] <scix> sinan : http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=2631

[17:01] <RoC_MasterMind> sinan, ubuntu cannot be just a better way to run windows apps...it is a different system, although those vendors are free to port their applications if they care.
[17:02] <potyl>  yowshi: when you get bored do CTRL-C and look at the file tee.ogg
[17:02] <yowshi> potyl: grrrrrr i was trying out the pitivi thing and it froze
[17:02] <potyl> yowshi: sorry the file name is test.ogg
[17:03] <scix> @RoC  .. they would have to have a good reason to port over. Particularly enough usebase on *nix to warrent spending the money to port
[17:03] <thiebaude> RoC_MasterMind: im glad i dont need windows
[17:03] <bakarat> anyone know why vlc would be running in the background and consuming 2 gigs of ram? :|
[17:03] <extraboss> fuqq
[17:03] <extraboss> 0e140e350e46
[17:03] <potyl> bakarat: it might be streaming video?
[17:03] <yowshi> potyl: be back in a few gotta reboot and fsck wants to check one of my drives this rebo0ot
[17:04] <Skizoboy> In my opinion the very best solution is: Linux as a sever, OSX as a client, consoles for games
[17:04] <bakarat> potyl, hmm, i rarely use vlc and i almost never stream anything
[17:04] <scix> @all -- Anyone know why a launchpad repo wouldn't show on synaptic when i've added the correct repo/auth key ?
[17:04] <Skizoboy> No windows in that picture xD
[17:04] <psychic> anyone know where the pidgin log is kept in the system?
[17:04] <bazhang> scix, gpg error?
[17:05] <potyl> bakarat: then it's odd. try "ps axf" it might show you which process started it
[17:05] <matt_> dtchen: Ok, audio works, thanks.
[17:05] <scix> baz: It doesn't display any errors, It just doesn't show.. Anyway I could check that ?
[17:05] <bazhang> !gpgerr
[17:05] <bazhang> scix, see above
[17:05] <potyl> psychic: ~/.purple/logs/
[17:05] <scix> thank you
[17:05] <bakarat> potyl, ah good to know, bit too late now though, i already killed it :D
[17:06] <scix> @baz
[17:06] <psychic> ok thank you
[17:06] <potyl> bakarat: who has  access to your system?
[17:06] <bakarat> potyl, no one, just me
[17:07] <doglino> what is the default font to applications in Ubuntu??
[17:07] <thiebaude> doglino: sans
[17:07] <potyl> bakarat: I'm asking because this was posted a few days ago  http://www.blogcatalog.com/blog/linux-loop-news-blog/cd4a075d63b796a9bad86050bca03ac0
[17:08] <potyl> bakarat: can someone with access to your computer be playing you a trick?
[17:08] <matt_> exit
[17:08] <bakarat> potyl, ah, well that should be rather hard on my computer (i hope) :D
[17:08] <doglino> thiebaude thanks
[17:08] <dl1981> hi everyone
[17:08] <thiebaude> doglino: your welcomed
[17:09] <dl1981> can anyone help me out? i whant to install bitchx on ubuntu please
[17:09] <thiebaude> !bitchx
[17:09] <Skizoboy> lol
[17:09] <thiebaude> dl1981: it was dropped from ubuntu
[17:09] <bazhang> dl1981, you need to compile it yourself, consider irssi instead
[17:10] <babi> ubuntu-br
[17:10] <dl1981> whats teh irc client
[17:10] <dl1981> for ubuntu ? that allows remote scripts
[17:10] <bazhang> !info irssi | dl1981
[17:10] <bakarat> potyl, well if it happens again, i'll try to see how it got started before killing it, it has never happened before and is rather odd... i have been playing with vlc over dbus recently, but that was at least one reboot ago, so don't see it impacting anything atm
[17:11] <bakarat> anyway, thanks :)
[17:12] <potyl> bakarat: ps axf might not work if the parent process dies or if the vlc gets separated from it's parent. In that case you will see the process as a stand alone entry without parents
[17:12] <Skizoboy> Does somebody know if I could open a distant shell on ly xubuntu box?
[17:12] <Skizoboy> I currently use VLC
[17:12] <dmizer> in ibex, is there any way at all to get the old network management tool (system > administration > networking) back?
[17:12] <bakarat> potyl, ah k, is there anything else to trace it?
[17:12] <debacle> i am trying to set up ubuntu 9.04 server for use as a webserver at my home, but am encountering problems
[17:12] <sinan> im tired of looking, does whole adobe creative suite  1 works?
[17:12] <Skizoboy> VNC*
[17:12] <debacle> the firs to fwhich is that i do not get the graphical interface described in the documentation
[17:12] <sinan> over wine
[17:13] <vsingh165> hello all
[17:13] <bazhang> sinan, up to cs2 iirc
[17:13] <vsingh165> anyone here have a laptop with broadcom 43xx wireless?
[17:13] <RWolf> how do I watch all opened sockets with processes that own them?
[17:13] <Captain_Haddock> Is anybody familiar with unetbootin?
[17:13] <sinan> CS2 fully working?
[17:13] <potyl> bakarat: under these circumstances not that I know of :(
[17:13] <vsingh165> my hp laptop can't connect sometimes, even though i have everything configured the way it's supposed to
[17:13] <bazhang> sinan, but the appdb would tell what standard, ie gold, platinum etc
[17:13] <vsingh165> its weird
[17:13] <bakarat> potyl, k :)
[17:13] <mzz> RWolf: ss or netstat, possibly
[17:14] <bazhang> sinan, keep in channel please
[17:14] <mzz> RWolf: there are also some top-like apps, but I haven't used any of them recentnly.
[17:14] <sinan> ok sorry
[17:14] <gonzo__> holas
[17:14] <thiebaude> !es
[17:14] <Skizoboy> xD
[17:14] <dmizer> debacle, first ... you should probably use hardy for your www server as it's more stable and there's better documentation for it. second ... for what reason do you need a GUI on a www server?
[17:15] <dl1981> i installed irssi thru synaptic, but has he gone to ?
[17:15] <dl1981> i can find :S
[17:15] <RWolf> mzz: thx, it works for me
[17:15] <vertagano> dl1981: irssi is a command line program. Just open the Terminal and type irssi.
[17:15] <potyl> dl1981: I think that irssi is a command line application
[17:15] <dmizer> in ibex, is there any way at all to get the old network management tool (system > administration > networking) back?
[17:15] <bazhang> dl1981, its terminal based, are you going to run it with screen?
[17:15] <dl1981> yes
[17:15] <debacle> more familiar and comfortable with a gui
[17:16] <mzz> diwas: does dcc send work? Alternatively try uploading to filebin.ca
[17:16] <thiebaude> !irssi
[17:16] <dl1981> thats my intention
[17:16] <wtl> on Jaunty, i can't see anymore the option to search a window as I type it's name on the scale plugin. is this feature disabled?
[17:16] <debacle> this will also be a media storage server
[17:16] <debacle> need to run php/mysql/mail
[17:16] <zack__> afternoon
[17:16] <bazhang> !info screen
[17:16] <Captain_Haddock> anybody have any experience installing ubuntu via live USB and the alternate ISO?
[17:16] <bazhang> dl1981, then you need to install screen first
[17:16] <diwas> mzz: what is dcc send? i am using Chatzilla
[17:16] <Myztikal_> hi, is there a program to open up .dll files from windows?
[17:17] <dmizer> debacle, all of those tools can be easily managed via a point and click web interface. this is much safer and easier than having a GUI
[17:17] <Captain_Haddock> it does during the "detecting CDROM" step
[17:17] <Captain_Haddock> dies*
[17:17] <mzz> diwas: I don't know how to do that in chatzilla. Just use filebin.ca if in doubt.
[17:17] <diwas> mzz: ok.
[17:17] <yowshi> potyl: running the command now
[17:17] <dmizer> debacle, is your www server going to be visible on the web, or is it just going to be a local testing server?
[17:18] <vertagano> Myztikal_: What is your purpose in trying to open the Windows DLL?
[17:18] <vsingh165> cya
[17:18] <debacle> the www server will be visible to the web
[17:18] <diwas> mzz: its a website right? "file.ca" i am actually new to IRC so i am confused! sorry.
[17:19] <mzz> diwas: http://filebin.ca/
[17:19] <M1K3> hey guys
[17:19] <NativeAngels> does anyone here use xen
[17:19] <debacle> i also have it networked to my home network where I store personal photo images and media files
[17:19] <diwas> mzz: thanks
[17:19] <jazzlamb> Hi all, I'm getting an error that is not booting the computer: GRUB Loading stage1.5.   GRUB Loading, please wait...Error 17     - any ideas how to fix?

[17:19] <Myztikal_> and i need to find out why :/
[17:19] <ericP> nautilus offers some network sharing menus (backed by samba?) which have allowed me to share read-only (after login with my unix id) to a windows box, but not read-write.
[17:19] <ericP> what's likely to be keeping me from sharing rw?
[17:19] <dmizer> debacle, i HIGHLY suggest that you run nothing other than a www server if it's going to be visible on the net. this is because the fewer resources you have running on your computer, the less chance your server can be hacked.
[17:20] <staar21> hello
[17:20] <vertagano> Myztikal_: A DLL is compiled code. Similar to an EXE. Unless you're the author of the program or an experienced hacker, there's little chance you can learn anything from looking inside a DLL file.
[17:20] <mzz> jazzlamb: apparently "error 17" is "Cannot mount selected partition: This error is returned if the partition requested exists, but the filesystem type cannot be recognized by GRUB", and since you're getting just the error code, not a message, it's saying that about your /boot partition (trying to load stage2)
[17:20] <mzz> jazzlamb: reinstalling grub is probably the best fix
[17:20] <diwas> mzz: its in ubuntuforums now. the link is (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7246020#post7246020)
[17:20] <debacle> in other words, find a diffeent place to store personal crap
[17:20] <dmizer> debacle, you can use something like vmware to separate your server resources.
[17:21] <staar21> anyone who has knowledge how to use printers look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7246006#post7246006
[17:21] <yowshi> potyl: the command you gave me recorded at an INSANE speed with no sound and crashed when i hit ctrl + c
[17:21] <dmizer> debacle, that is one option. but if your server has enough ram, you can simply use a virtual machine solution.
[17:21] <ericP> nautilus has an "allow ohter people to write in this folder" option. is that just chmod o+r? (i couldn't tell if it was related to the [network] sharing)
[17:22] <jazzlamb> how to do this - cd, code - I try several keys and all fail to move away from the error message; Ubuntu Desktop 9.04 is in
[17:22] <potyl>  yowshi: my doesn't record sound :)
[17:22] <mzz> diwas: hmm, that's oddly short
[17:22] <yowshi> potyl: my?
[17:22] <dmizer> in ibex, is there any way at all to get the old network management tool (system > administration > networking) back?
[17:22] <potyl> yowshi: my command, when I run it on my computer.
[17:22] <mzz> diwas: was deluge already running?
[17:23] <diwas> mzz: yes it was
[17:23] <staar21> anyone here has printer hp laserjet 1018 ?
[17:23] <mzz> diwas: this looks like it never actually ran a new instance of deluge, it just told the existing instance to take focus again. That doesn't help.
[17:23] <potyl> yowshi: this is has far as I can help you. Try to go to a gstreamer (gst) channel  and ask for help there.
[17:23] <yowshi> potyl: hmmm well we're one step further but it records at an insane frame rate or at least plays at such in vlc
[17:23] <vertagano> staar21: What problem are you having with your printer?
[17:23] <Myztikal_> thanks vertagno
[17:23] <diwas> mzz: what should i do now?
[17:23] <dmizer> debacle, it's especially important to keep www and email separate because email is a high profile target.
[17:23] <staar21> look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7246006#post7246006 i have explained problem there
[17:24] <staar21> vertagano:
[17:24] <M1K3> hey guys im trying to install ubuntu 9.04 on my fake raid 0 drive and im following this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[17:24] <potyl> yowshi: use totem to see how it plays
[17:24] <personsetup> Hey guys, mind if I ask a few questions about multiple monitor setups?
[17:24] <debacle> as I dont have any other resources to run a mail server other than this, i dont know of many other options
[17:24] <yowshi> potyl: know any gstreamer channels?
[17:24] <M1K3> but im stuck at step 9 section k
[17:24] <mzz> diwas: I'm hoping to get an strace log for a program that actually gives you a strange error message. One way to do that is start the app, look up its pid, then do "strace -p thatpid 2>/var/tmp/stracelog", then trigger the error message, then ctrl+c strace
[17:24] <potyl>  yowshi: you need to go to the gnome irc servers
[17:25] <chuck_> jazzlamb, when you say cd, code do you mean your trying to change to another directory
[17:25] <dmizer> debacle, if you have enough ram you can run your www server and email server in separate virtual machines.
[17:25] <Skizoboy> Does anyone know something about putty?
[17:25] <mzz> diwas: or exit the app completely, then do "strace thatapp 2>/tmp/stracelog" again (so the instance you run under strace actually gives you the error message too), but the -p option will give a shorter log, which is good.
[17:25] <diwas> mzz: ok..i am on it. i will be right back
[17:25] <ziroday> Skizoboy: ##windows probably does
[17:25] <jazzlamb> I deleted to partition (:/D) - changed to 1st boot item to disk, having some success right now
[17:25] <potyl> yowshi: #gstreamer on irc.freenode.com.
[17:25] <zvacet> !putty
[17:26] <dmizer> !ask
[17:26] <Skizoboy> lol yes I know what it is
[17:26] <mzz> jazzlamb: you'll have to boot off a livecd to fix this, most likely.
[17:26] <deany> someone tell me if this is the correct way to format home from ext4 to ext3.  boot to recovery mode, drop to prompt.  sudo mkdir /home.bak && sudo cp -av /home/username /home.bak && sudo umount /home && sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda2 && sudo pico /etc/fstab (change ext4 to ext3) and then sudo mount -a, then copy files back
[17:26] <debacle> the server i have is a poweredge 2600 dual xeon 2.4 with 3 gig ram
[17:26] <jazzlamb> I'm currently trying to do that - any suggestions - checking the integrity right now
[17:26] <yowshi> potyl: thanks
[17:26] <Skizoboy> I want to know if it works well on ubuntu
[17:27] <jazzlamb> thanks mzz
[17:27] <jway> how can I specify my wep key in hex instead of ascii when connecting to my wireless?
[17:27] <mzz> deany: I'm pretty sure you have some steps in the wrong order there (you're creating a new partition near the end, but you're never actually mounting it or copying data from the old /home onto it?)
[17:27] <Skizoboy> Is there a better solution?
[17:27] <dmizer> debacle, that's MORE than enough to use a virtual machine solution. with virtual machines, you would essentially be turning one computer into several.
[17:27] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto Skizoboy
[17:27] <deany> its an existing partition.
[17:27] <vertagano> staar21: Your printer sounds problematic. Have you installed these drivers? http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_1018
[17:28] <yowshi> potyl: in casdr you were wondering every other player i have including totem also plays it super fast. and they also register a blank aiudio layer
[17:28] <Skizoboy> Thanks Bazhang! :)
[17:28] <deany> copying files from home to home.bak on root partition.  unmounting home then formatting with ext3 then changin fstab to reflect ext3 , then mounting then copying files back
[17:28] <vertagano> yowshi: You have too fast sound?
[17:28] <deany> i think its correct, im just making sure
[17:28] <dmizer> debacle, for more information ... take a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=308
[17:28] <ienorand> jazzlamb: If it is meant boot up from ubuntu partition and it is unchanged. I'd suggest an fsck from livecd
[17:28] <yowshi> vertagano: no to fast video and a blank audio layer apparently
[17:29] <M1K3> how do i install ubuntu on a fake raid 0 drive?
[17:29] <garym> is there any way to install 8.04 using the existing disk partitions?  I need to retain sda7, but the install wants to start over from the full-disk, wiping out the parition table :(
[17:29] <dmizer> debacle: using hardy instead of jaunty would mean that you can wait several years before an upgrade instead of only 6 months.
[17:29] <vertagano> yowshi: All video?
[17:29] <jazzlamb> ienorand - I deleted the ubuntu partition - I'm a newby - what is fsk?
[17:29] <aleron6> can anybody tell me what java package to download to access java chatrooms
[17:30] <mzz> jazzlamb: if I'm interpreting this correctly either the partition number or the filesystem of your /boot partition changed and grub isn't starting up completely. What's the last thing you did before this started happening?
[17:30] <aleron6> cause i dont really know which onw is which
[17:30] <dmizer> debacle: if you have a live www server, upgrades should be avoided because they often cause lengthy outages.
[17:30] <debacle> so i am better off with hardy then
[17:30] <debacle> basically the www server is used for a personal family site
[17:30] <mzz> jazzlamb: err, are you trying to get rid of grub entirely?
[17:30] <ziroday> !java | aleron6
[17:30] <garym> debacle infinitely :(
[17:30] <debacle> nd smll little hosting things i do
[17:30] <yowshi> vertagano: no just the video i am trying to record on my logitech quickcam communicate stx
[17:30] <ziroday> aleron6: so sun-java6-jre is probably your best bet
[17:30] <zvacet> M1K3:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[17:31] <diwas> mzz: i did watever u said. man it huge now...really huge. haha. i will be uploadin in filebin.ca
[17:31] <garym> I am desperately trying to regress to hardy, the last known stable and working ubuntu for the inspiron 1521
[17:31] <RWolf> garym: I've installed it aside the existing windows partition with no problem
[17:31] <vertagano> yowshi: I've never been able to get my quickcam to work right.
[17:31] <dmizer> debacle: it has been my experience that the LTS releases are the best way to go for any live server situation.
[17:31] <mzz> jazzlamb: what are you actually trying to do? Are you trying to get rid of ubuntu (install some other os)?
[17:31] <garym> rwolf, but it wont give me that option, it only wants to create a single disk whole partition
[17:31] <yowshi> vertagano: define not right? as in you cant record at all or can record just not use it wiuth skype and stuff?
[17:31] <debacle> ok
[17:32] <debacle> i am downloading hardy right now, and will install that rather than 9.04
[17:32] <garym> I thought normally it would detect the existing paritions and offer those wanting mount points, but I don't get that
[17:32] <debacle> was in the middle of 9.04 but will stop it
[17:32] <garym> I am using the alt cd, maybe that's why?
[17:32] <RWolf> garym: there's something like "manual advanced  partitioning" checkbox in installer
[17:32] <khensthoth> garym: Isn't there an option to let you manually specify which partitions to install to?
[17:32] <vertagano> yowshi: It behaves differently in every app: either the video is tiny and the colors are inverted, or it's stuttering and stops working after a short time.
[17:32] <garym> yes, that's where I went
[17:32] <jazzlamb> mzz - I was trying to delete the original install partition as I had to room in the partition . was planning on re-installing with a larger partition
[17:32] <thiebaude> i got ext4 on 9.04, its great
[17:33] <mzz> garym: I'm pretty sure that should work (I installed into an existing lvm volume using the alt install cd myself)
[17:33] <debacle> thank you for your hlp dmizer
[17:33] <mib_dsqoho5h> can anybody help me disable dmraid in the initrd?
[17:33] <dmizer> debacle: i think you'll be much more satisfied with hardy anyway. it has better server support and less breakage. you'll also want to look into webmin for administrating your server via a web interface.
[17:33] <debacle> and once i begin anew, I will probably be back
[17:33] <mzz> jazzlamb: if you're going to reinstall just do that now (boot off the livecd, reinstall grub during the install process)
[17:33] <dmizer> debacle ... enjoy!
[17:33] <debacle> webmin?
[17:33] <debacle> does that come packaged with hardy?
[17:33] <dmizer> !webmin
[17:33] <garym> it shows scsi1 sda 120GB ata fujitsu mhw2120b, when I click that, it asks to create a new empty partition table, but there is already a partition table
[17:34] <dmizer> !ebox
[17:34] <dmizer> debacle ^
[17:34] <garym> if I say "yes" it will offer only pri/log 120GB labelled FREE SPACE
[17:34] <garym> that's where I chickened out
[17:35] <DJJeff> anyone have any luck with "Detect and mount cdrom" on imac G3 well installing ubuntu-8.10-server-powerpc ?
[17:35] <Greed> I'm a but confused on the easiest method of restoring grub after installing windows... I've seen about 5 different ways... any help would be greatly appreciated
[17:35] <thiebaude> garym: mine too said free space, but i installed with ext4 anyway
[17:35] <garym> if I do select it, it only says "create a new partition
[17:35] <juan_> hi everyone
[17:35] <debacle> ty dmizer
[17:35] <debacle> will look into it after i burn this iso
[17:35] <garym> or auto-partition, or show cyl/head info
[17:35] <mzz> garym: what kind of partition table is this?
[17:35] <dmizer> no problem debacle. enjoy.
[17:36] <thiebaude> hmm
[17:36] <mzz> garym: this sounds like something's going wrong and the kernel's not reading the partition table successfully
[17:36] <garym> I dunno, I was running ubuntu 8.04 before
[17:36] <mzz> garym: iirc you can alt+f2 or something over to a shell, can you check dmesg to see if the partition table is actually recognized?
[17:36] <garym> stupidly upgraded to 8.10 and thought I'd solve problems there with 9.04
[17:36] <mib_dsqoho5h> I'm trying to install jaunty server and don't want to use dmraid -- are there any guidelines for how to disable it?
[17:37] <dmizer> in ibex, is there any way at all to get the old network management tool (system > administration > networking) back?
[17:37] <Greed> I'm a but confused on the easiest method of restoring grub after installing windows... I've seen about 5 different ways... any help would be greatly appreciated
[17:37] <Slart> mib_dsqoho5h: don't use it? or you really want the binaries to go away?
[17:37] <garym> if I use fdisk the partition table is there and looks fine
[17:37] <garym> nothing suspicious in dmesg
[17:37] <mneptok> Greed: the Ubuntu Wiki has the preferred solution
[17:37] <Slart> !grub | Greed
[17:37] <Ubuntubruger8> good evening
[17:37] <mzz> garym: dmesg|grep sda, is there a line like "sda: sda1 sda2" in there?
[17:37] <bitmonk> howdy folks, since upgrading (and fresh installing) jaunty on my acer netbook, usb devices do not reactivate on wake from sleep without being unplugged / replugged.  any thoughts what might be up?
[17:37] <mib_dsqoho5h> the problem is that I can tell the jaunty installer to not use the software raid, but the initrd file appears to load it before attempting to use md
[17:37] <gharz> guys, i'm having a serious warning: dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `xserver-xorg-video-vmware' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.   how do i fix this?
[17:38] <garym> it in fact shows the partitions: sda: sda1 sda2 < sda5 sda6 sda7 >
[17:38] <mib_dsqoho5h> so the install completes successfully
[17:38] <dmizer> !ask | Ubuntubruger8
[17:38] <mib_dsqoho5h> but I get a no block devices found error on first startup
[17:38] <mzz> garym: ok, so the kernel sees things and the partitioner is doing something odd then?
[17:38] <mzz> garym: what kind of filesystem is on the partition you want to install into?
[17:38] <Rob235> how do you rename a hidden folder in the console? :P
[17:38] <garym> yes.  the partitional doesn't see them.  filesystesm are all 83 linux
[17:38] <garym> but I haven't got that far.
[17:38] <ST47> There seems to be an issue with my ubuntu install
[17:38] <Slart> Rob235: just like you rename any other file.. mv oldfilename newfilename
[17:39] <mzz> garym: no, I don't mean the type in the partition table, I mean the type actually on the partition. ext4 perhaps?
[17:39] <Rob235> do you need the .folder ?
[17:39] <ST47> With excessive disk usage, I think, the system completely locks up
[17:39] <samier> hi
[17:39] <Rob235> the .
[17:39] <mib_dsqoho5h> slart: does that help explain?
[17:39] <mzz> garym: I don't think I have enough experience with the installer to debug this tbh.
[17:39] <ST47> (Even sysrq+REISUB doesn't work)
[17:39] <garym> oh, whatever 8.04 installed the first time.  likely ext4
[17:39] <bitmonk> rob: yes, the dot is not magical, it's a convention that filenames beginning with '.' are hidden from normal view..
[17:39] <ST47> Why would this happen? It seems to be primarily when deleting a large number of files
[17:39] <bitmonk> so 'mv .foo .foo2'
[17:39] <Rob235> ok thats what i thought, just wanted to check, thanks
[17:39] <mzz> garym: no, 8.04 can't handle ext4. If you're downgrading from 9.04 I wonder if the 8.04 installer is balking on any ext4 partitions it can't handle that 9.04 could.
[17:40] <garym> sda1 was windows, but it's been broken for so long I thought I'd scrap it and lvm sda1 to sda5
[17:40] <halfgenius> hi, does unetbootin supports 9.04 alternate iso?
[17:40] <mzz> garym: oh, if there's any lvm involved you might need the alt install cd.
[17:40] <garym> no, 9.04 did not create any partitions
[17:40] <garym> or format any
[17:40] <filleokus> Hi! I have problem with the XBMC PPA

[17:41] <aaron_> How can I  give the right permissions for avast gui ?
[17:41] <mib_dsqoho5h> slart: I know the initramfs is set to load most modules. I think it's loading the dmraid modules and then I can't see my partitions any more
[17:42] <ST47> With excessive disk usage, I think, the system completely locks up, usually when deleting a number of files. I see the disk usage light go dark, though my power, battery, and wifi lights stay on, and the computer is completely unresponsive, even to SysRq.
[17:42] <garym> ie insert cd while running 8.10 (upgraded from 8.04 which was the original os)
[17:42] <aaron_> when I use avast gui not in terminal I can't scan my computer.
[17:42] <scream13> i downloaded the new yet it is not auto...
[17:42] <yao_ziyuan> i run ubuntu's update-notifier at kubuntu's startup
[17:42] <mib_dsqoho5h> slart: it thinks there's a raid there and initializes incorrectly. even though the bios has everything set to be SATA only, not RAID
[17:42] <yao_ziyuan> it does check and prompt for updates
[17:42] <garym> 9.04 is so slow, I cannot even run mplayer in svga mode and watch films
[17:42] <garym> biab
[17:42] <Slart> mib_dsqoho5h: hmm.. ok.. I think I understand... very strange

[17:44] <mzz> ubuntistas: what Slart said then.
[17:44] <filleokus> bazhang: yeah, i have added the long pgp-key
[17:45] <filleokus> but it wont work
[17:45] <mib_dsqoho5h> hmm -- so what I was thinking was to add a dmraid blacklist to the /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file, then use update-initramfs to rebuild the initrd files. sounds right?
[17:45] <bazhang> cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit bcmorr2
[17:45] <mzz> bcmorr2: iirc there isn't much to it, just "somecommand | pastebinit" or "pastebinit somefile"
[17:45] <aaron_> so I guess their is no way?
[17:45] <bcmorr2> well I'm trying to log all of a make command

[17:45] <mib_dsqoho5h> slart: do I need to change the initramfs-tools config to load dep modules instead of most?
[17:45] <mzz> diwas: if you're not too firewalled you can dcc send to me
[17:46] <bazhang> bcmorr2, then use the |
[17:46] <bcmorr2> mzz: so make > /tmp/dosboxerror & pastebinit /tmp/dosboxerror?
[17:46] <mzz> diwas: or you could pastebin the last few 1000 lines.
[17:46] <bcmorr2> bazhang: or make | pastbinit
[17:46] <mzz> bcmorr2: try "make 2>&1 | pastebinit"

[17:50] <Slart> ubuntulog: white icon?
[17:51] <khensthoth> mib_i11wyp: I am asking you to test with TKIP first on your laptop, then with AES.
[17:51] <mib_i11wyp> ok
[17:51] <mib_i11wyp> what is safer'
[17:51] <mib_i11wyp> ?

[17:52] <gharz> guys how do you fix this: dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `xserver-xorg-video-vmware' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed. ??? any idea?
[17:52] <khensthoth> mib_i11wyp: No idea.
[17:52] <vertagano> bcmorr2: Are you sure you have working source code?
[17:52] <gharz> i don't want to see this seirous warning
[17:52] <mzz> diwas: ugh, now bunzip2 claims the file's truncated. Does it decompress successfully on your end? Can you retransmit?
[17:53] <gharz> anyone?
[17:53] <bcmorr2> vertagano: got it from sourceforge- plenty use it with no problems
[17:53] <diwas> mzz: ok.. i will retry it.
[17:53] <Guest39898> ok i need help ... i just in stalled Xubuntu  9.04 on an Imac g3 ... install went good... but now when it gets to the load up screen it loads up and right as its about to take me to the desktop the screen go blank.. HOW DO I FIX THIS??
[17:53] <vertagano> bcmorr2: What version of gcc are you using?
[17:54] <khensthoth> Guest39898: What graphic card does it have?
[17:54] <bcmorr2> ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4
[17:54] <bcmorr2> vertagano: gcc (Ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4) 4.3.3
[17:54] <diwas> mzz: sorry for the inconvenience
[17:55] <Guest39898> ok i need help ... i just in stalled Xubuntu  9.04 on an Imac g3 ... install went good... but now when it gets to the load up screen it loads up and right as its about to take me to the desktop the screen it gos blank.. HOW DO I FIX THIS??
[17:55] <gharz> Guest39898: i find jaunty with lots of bugs...
[17:55] <mzz> diwas: don't worry about it. If this still fails just upload the compressed file to filebin
[17:55] <gharz> go for 8.10 instead :(
[17:55] <gharz> that's my opinion
[17:55] <mib_i11wyp> does anyone know wich is more secure using wpa2-psk if tpki or aes as my netger combines both of them ?
[17:55]  * CoJaBo-Aztec also finds Jaunty horribly broken
[17:56] <mzz> diwas: seems to have worked, no idea what went wrong the last time
[17:56] <bcmorr2> Guest39898: it sounds like you need to boot into shell and edit your xconfig, though I'm not 100% sure now to do that with ubuntu
[17:56] <diwas> mzz: great. thank god! haha
[17:56] <mzz> diwas: strange, no obvious failures in there at all...
[17:56] <Guest39898> ya i dont know how either
[17:56] <Guest39898> i need someone to tell me how using yabooot
[17:56] <Guest39898> wtf is yaboot??
[17:56] <diwas> mzz: oh. :S what might be the reason?
[17:56] <mzz> diwas: what was the exact error message?
[17:57] <bcmorr2> Guest39898: have you googled it?
[17:57] <diwas> mzz: "Operation not Supported"
[17:57] <Guest39898> yes
[17:57] <Guest39898> i  cant find jack
[17:57] <vertagano> bcmorr2: I think you need to add an "#include <cstring>" to the file with the error.  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=455286
[17:57] <Guest39898> surely someone has got to know how to xconfig on 9.04
[17:57] <ravn1> hi guys, after I ungraded to 9.04 from 8.10 I can't play movies any more, mp4 and some other formats crashes something. I suspect it is gstreamer, anyone heard of this. VLC, mplayer and Movie Player all crash to an extent that my whole gnome session ends and I have to log in again...
[17:58]  * mzz wonders if he straced the wrong process or thread
[17:58] <mzz> diwas: please try with rtorrent or the like, which I'm sure doesn't do anything multiprocess-wise
[17:58] <mib_i11wyp> what happens is i install the laptop remix on normal desktop pc?
[17:58] <diwas> mzz: ok i will download it right now.
[17:58] <CoJaBo-Aztec> mib_i11wyp: You will want to use AES if your router supports it.
[17:58] <khensthoth> mib_i11wyp: You mean netbook remix?
[17:58] <mzz> diwas: (pretty sure rtorrent can be installed through apt-get)
[17:59] <mib_i11wyp> yes
[17:59] <mzz> diwas: then just "rtorrent path/to/torrent" iirc
[17:59] <diwas> mzz: thanks.
[17:59] <mib_i11wyp> if i put that on my normal pc desktpp what happens?
[17:59] <sacarlson> Guest39898: maybe you could try modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf   to set to the vesa device driver
[17:59] <mib_i11wyp> and thanx cajobo
[17:59] <khensthoth> mib_i11wyp: You get a horrible window manager (for a desktop)
[17:59] <Guest39898> ill add it to the list of commands ive already tried
[17:59] <Guest39898> brtb
[17:59] <Guest39898> brb
[17:59] <mib_i11wyp> a ok
