[21:18] <Rob215>  MASARUwota: Slowly put: logoff... then... click on my username .. type... password... and then... doesn't work
[21:18] <brokendisk> EastDallas: SMART completely reports OK
[21:18] <CAPcap> oops
[21:18] <iceroot> EastDallas: smart is showing warnings about that a disk MAY fail in the next time
[21:19] <wrapster> im from solaris world trying my hands with ubuntu now.. could you please help
[21:19] <wrapster> ?
[21:19] <brokendisk> iceroot: ideally
[21:19] <iceroot> brokendisk: yes
[21:19] <exco> how do I disable the drum logon sound?
[21:19] <EastDallas> iceroot: yes, but it bases that warning on past failures.
[21:19] <brokendisk> it let me down there
[21:19] <CAPcap> are there hotkeys for they system monitor ( like ctrl alt del in windows dor task manager)?
[21:19] <brokendisk> thought itd never let me down
[21:19] <MASARUwota> Rob215: it gets grayed out or what?
[21:19] <iceroot> EastDallas: no there are other methods too
[21:20] <MASARUwota> Rob215: didnt i tell you to remove the config files or get another WM? :/
[21:20] <iceroot> EastDallas: not only bad sectors and so on
[21:20] <nibbler> CAPcap, you can define hotkeys for anything. but i'd suggest to have just an applet running in oyur menubar or smth
[21:20] <Rob215> MASARUwota: it displays a "can't login" error
[21:20] <strywgr> exco : Click System, mouseover Preference, and select Sound. -> Select SOUNDS -> Go to the bottom and click the Log in dropdown. -> select NO Sound.
[21:21] <CAPcap> nibbler: how would i go about doing those things?
[21:21] <EastDallas> iceroot: it can't just guess that the drive will fail next time, it obviously evaluates past drive performance and errors in determining the drive's reliability
[21:21] <brokendisk> any idea :/
[21:21] <wrapster> any body here?
[21:21] <Rob215> MASARUwota: but got icewm working
[21:21] <MASARUwota> !anyone|wrapster
[21:21] <iceroot> EastDallas: correct
[21:21] <brokendisk> no wrapster no bodies here pls
[21:21] <exco> strywgr ... well that menu isn't there on 9.10
[21:21] <MASARUwota> Rob215: you CAN login to icewm?
[21:21] <iceroot> EastDallas: before its sounds like that you thing its only bad tracks
[21:21] <ufk> can anyone recommend a good and fast web hosting solution for dedicated server
[21:21] <ufk> s?

[21:26] <FireCrotch> I'm logged into a machine via SSH, and there is a user on the machine running a full desktop (KDE in this instance). Is there any way I can send this user a message from the command line?
[21:26] <pontus> i need help istalling Farsight2
[21:26] <burg> hello. where can i find / how can i install pthread library in ubuntu 9.10 ?
[21:26] <CAPcap> can someone walk me though adding a hotkey shortcut that opens my system monitor?
[21:26] <MASARUwota> FireCrotch: this is an interesting question =)
[21:26] <nibbler> schui_, go to user/group management (administration i guess) aand make sure you user belongs to the group games, if thats not working, install it as root
[21:26] <bredoto> MASARUwota, It takes additional battery energy of my laptop and because and it is radiating me
[21:26] <bredoto> =)
[21:27] <FireCrotch> MASARUwota: yeah :) I guess I'm looking for something like "net send" in Windows
[21:27] <nibbler> FireCrotch, you ahve to use xhost to allow yourself access to his display, then it could work. you need root or his user login for that
[21:27] <pontus> i need help istalling Farsight2
[21:27] <hema> i want to ask how i can stop passowrd every install
[21:28] <hema> ?
[21:28] <EastDallas> FireCrotch: I was looking for something like that awhile back, and basically there's nothing that will send a graphical notification like that without permission from the user.
[21:28] <oCean_> FireCrotch: xmessage

[21:28] <nibbler> pontus, try a sentence like "i want to install ..., but when i do ... it does .. instead of .... i alrady tried ... and ....
[21:28] <MASARUwota> Rob215: you choose it in "session' during login, for eample
[21:28] <hema> no any one know ?
[21:28] <FireCrotch> oCean_: I think that'll do the trick. Thank you very much!

[21:29] <ubott2> hema: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[21:29] <dementor> i need to give internet con to my second pc
[21:29] <oCean_> FireCrotch: not really "like" netsend, but set DISPLAY to the user using KDE DISPLAY (e.g. export DISPLAY=:0.0) then xmessage "hi there"
[21:29] <MASARUwota> ^that
[21:29] <Rob215> MASARUwota: any terminal ways?
[21:30] <nibbler> hema: this is important, as thats the only way to keep your system save. you could work as root, like working as adinistrator in windows, but that is *NOT* recommendet
[21:30] <hema> how to stop passwoerd massge
[21:30] <pontus> i want to install Farsight2 but i don't realy understand what to do with the terminal and stuff ^^ and all the downloading. plz help me :)

[21:30] <Maletor> Hi - I just bought a domain name on GoDaddy and I want to point it to my external IP. What nameservers should I use?
[21:30] <Maletor> Can I make my own ns1.myserver.com ?
[21:31] <MASARUwota> !ot|Maletor
[21:31] <ubott2> Maletor: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!
[21:31] <turdfurgison> Maletor- easiest way would be to use godaddy's nameservers and just set some "A" entries
[21:31] <MASARUwota> ubottu died ;_;
[21:31] <FireCrotch> Maletor: In theory, you could run your own nameserver, yes, but it would be much easier to use something like ZoneEdit, especially if you have an IP that changes
[21:31] <ardchoille> ubott2 is here
[21:31] <ubott2> Sorry, I don't know anything about is here
[21:31] <CAPcap> thats impressive that ubottu died
[21:31] <oCean_> MASARUwota: you used her too much
[21:32] <onetinsoldier> pontus: i can try and help. and, if you want to get a good start on learning the command line i recommend checking out www.linuxcommand.org
[21:32] <MASARUwota> oCean_ she felt used by me
[21:32] <Rob215> MASARUwota: dude, YOU dont understand how it works because i replaced the WM by the  icewm --replace command
[21:32] <ardchoille> Rob215: metacity --replace  ?
[21:32] <MASARUwota> Rob215: hahha oh whow, also, do w/e you did with metacity then
[21:33] <Rob215> MASARUwota: thanks

[21:35] <sirninja> I'm using ubuntu and am considering getting an ipod touch. I know you have to jailbreak it in order to get it working at all with linux. If I get an older edition, will I be able to use a program like banshee to sync it like I do my old ipod or is that currently impossible with any ipod touch?
[21:35] <MASARUwota> !hi|karel
[21:35] <ubott2> karel: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines . Enjoy your stay!
[21:35] <CAPcap> who can help me add hotkey access for system monitor?
[21:35] <MASARUwota> sirninja: ipod? please, dont.
[21:36] <Dunkirk> Anyone know where I can find, like, an RSS feed of the official Ubuntu patch release announcements?
[21:36] <nibbler> CAPcap, what went wrong?
[21:36] <ardchoille> Dunkirk: yes, hold on..
[21:36] <EastDallas> chava: did they not automatically install?
[21:36] <karel> I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, and webpages (I use Firefox) are quite blurry, difficult to read, eyes get dry etc :/, any ideas?
[21:36] <sirninja> masaruwota: do you know of another touch screen media player that is comparable? I would prefer to stay away from having to jailbreak it and all of that
[21:36] <EastDallas> chava: system>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[21:36] <CAPcap> nibbler: I just cant figure it out. im new so i kinda need step by step instructions. sorry
[21:36] <NerveClasp> Hi! I need help! is there any tool to recover erased files from usb drive?
[21:36] <Dunkirk> sirninja, I don't think you need to jailbreak it...
[21:37] <MASARUwota> sirninja: Sansa fuse
[21:37] <nibbler> CAPcap, go system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts
[21:37] <Dunkirk> sirninja, I have an iRiver S10. The iRivers work just like a memory stick.

[21:38] <Dunkirk> ardchoille, Bingo! THanks!
[21:38] <ardchoille> Dunkirk: yw :)
[21:38] <CAPcap> nibbler, i do and i click add and it asks me for command and name. i dont know what to put it...
[21:38] <Dunkirk> karel, I usually set Firefox up to not allow the web pages to choose their own fonts.
[21:39] <nibbler> capcap then click "add" find a name, and as command enter: /usr/bin/gnome-system-monitor

[21:40] <MASARUwota> oCean_:but they are great
[21:41] <nibbler> CAPcap, the name would be "nibbler is my hero"
[21:41] <oCean_> MASARUwota: the overkill is annoying
[21:41] <CAPcap> nibbler: Truth
[21:41] <brokendisk> any idea how i could restore data from my hd if ddrescue stops working?
[21:41] <brokendisk> hdd*
[21:41] <MASARUwota> oCean_ ..
[21:41] <nibbler> brokendisk, how is it stopping to work? but no, i guess its broken and you need professional help, if anything can be done at all
[21:42] <brokendisk> nibbler: i launched ddrescue, it started to work, updated some numbers like access rate but stopped updating after 20 seconds and the disk made scratchy noises again for like 30 seconds, now it is silent and nothing happens
[21:42] <nibbler> brokendisk, how did you launch ddrescue?
[21:43] <brokendisk> nibbler: ctrl+alt+del doesnt work either anymore
[21:43] <brokendisk> nibbler: ddrescue -n -v /dev/bad /dev/good /mnt/flash/logfile

[21:43] <nibbler> meway, freenode
[21:43] <meway> oh ok good
[21:44] <meway> thanks nibbler
[21:44] <nibbler> brokendisk, i mean thats what a logfile is for, after all ;-)
[21:44] <brokendisk> just a sec
[21:44] <zoobox> NerveClasp: yes I think there are.... don't remember the name right now though...
[21:44] <tyabux> Nothing is more Ubuntu than Carl Sagan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wupToqz1e2g
[21:44] <nibbler> CAPcap, every hotkey can only have one action. if you put system monitor to ctrl-alt-del then the other dialog wont pup up anymore
[21:45] <CAPcap> nibbler i kno
[21:45] <CAPcap> ive got it on ctrl alt `
[21:45] <brokendisk> # Rescue Logfile. Created by GNU ddrescue version 1.11 # current_pos  current_status 0x00000000     ? #      pos        size  status 0x00000000  0x12A1F16000  ?
[21:45] <brokendisk> that is all
[21:45] <brokendisk> ? = newline
[21:45] <nibbler> CAPcap, what do you need it for, by the way?
[21:45] <NerveClasp> zoobox: I googled, but found nothing except non-free software
[21:46] <CAPcap> nibbler i just like having that function hotkeyed. it drives me nuts that its not
[21:46] <Dunkirk> NerveClasp, I don't know of anything under Linux, but there are several that run under Windows. (I don't like it either; I'm just stating what I know.)
[21:46] <brokendisk> nibbler: http://pastebin.com/df916a77
[21:46] <nibbler> CAPcap, if yuo need to kill stuff, there is easier ways
[21:46] <NerveClasp> thanks
[21:46] <CAPcap> nibbler, such as?
[21:46] <brokendisk> ? != newline
[21:46] <nibbler> brokendisk, im no expert for that, but i dont like it getting hung at position 0
[21:47] <brokendisk> fuck
[21:47] <CAPcap> nibbler: Im not good with the terminal im new to linux. ive been using windows my whole life
[21:47] <brokendisk> should i start a different index

[21:47] <Hinata> Hi, I'm trying to compile wine 1.1.36 (32bits) on Ubuntu 9.10 (64bits) but well at the end of the compilation I get something like that: http://pastebin.com/d5f2a5049 (I'm not sure if it's anough to see what is the problem though) does anyone have an idea? oh by the way I used this to configure it:  CC="gcc -m32" LDFLAGS="-L/lib32 -L/usr/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib32" ./configure -v
[21:47] <nibbler> Hinata, why not use the wine ppa?
[21:47] <Hinata> nibbler: wine ppa?
[21:48] <Dunkirk> Hinata, Why compile your own?
[21:48] <nibbler> capcap: alt-f2 to run a process, then enter "xkill" and press enter - you can execute xkill via hotkey, too
[21:48] <CAPcap> thanks. im happy with the sys mon tho
[21:48] <Dunkirk> Hinata, 1.1.31 is already in the standard repos.
[21:48] <morphix> oh nerveclasp left.
[21:49] <morphix> meh. his loss
[21:49] <nibbler> Hinata, go to wine-hq.org and look for ubuntu-binaries
[21:49] <nibbler> CAPcap, fine :-)
[21:49] <CAPcap> thanks for all your help nibbler
[21:49] <Hinata> Yes but I'de ratter have 1.1.36 ^ ^; are there binaries for it?
[21:49] <slimAouinet> HI there
[21:49] <nibbler> CAPcap, welcome
[21:50] <zoobox> hi slimAouinet
[21:50] <progre55> Hi people! do you guys know how to fix the problem of typing in cyrillic on a flash text field? using any browser on linux, I get this problem. cannot type in a single letter in cyrillic on a flash screen
[21:50] <CAPcap> question nibbler, is your name a reference to the futurama character?
[21:50] <nibbler> CAPcap, yep.
[21:50] <teage> is it possible to install guest additions for vb in a linux distro the way you would if you where using windows
[21:50] <zoobox> morphix: aha you found the undelete-on-usb program?
[21:51] <Dunkirk> Hinata, To answer your original question, I would guess that you need to install libmpg123-dev in order to get your compile to complete.
[21:51] <slimAouinet> I have a ubuntu 9.10 and the web  works as you can see but I cannot reconfigure "remove the proxy configuration for apt-get ...
[21:51] <nibbler> teage, no, there wont be so many "next next finish" buttons
[21:51] <kbp> I need some help. Let say I have 2 dirs /test1 and /test2 . I want when people go to /test1 , it appears /test2 content (i.e. "mount", "map"... etc) Does anyone know how to do it?
[21:51] <teage> i have googled this and i just can not seem to find an answer
[21:51] <teage> nibbler- ic, thanks
[21:52] <morphix> zoobox, kinda, just some info that ive used previously for my own usb flash drive recovery.
[21:52] <karel> Dunkirk, where exactly is this option, could you pelase tell? I tried different things... language difference here :/
[21:52] <morphix> http://blog.linuxchixla.org/2009/04/22/linux-usb-flash-drive-recovery/
[21:53] <Dunkirk> karel, Edit, Preferences, Content, Advanced..., and then the tickbox toward the bottom.
[21:53] <zoobox> aha, good to know
[21:53] <Hinata> Dunkirk: it's already installed
[21:53] <Hinata> and I got a brocken package message from trying to install wine using apt...
[21:53] <zoobox> kbp: wouldn't it be easier with just a link och symlink?
[21:54] <schui_> i dont suppose anyone plays ut2004 here?
[21:54] <iceroot> schui_: yes, you have a ubuntu related question?
[21:54] <slimAouinet> I have configured the proxy at the office but now I can't update the packages, I have a proxy configured error ...
[21:54] <kbp> zoobox: no idea what it is
[21:54] <schui_> yeah.. im having a hell of a time trying to install it, was wondering if anyone plays it could help me
[21:55] <karel> Dunkirk, thanks, made some advance
[21:55] <Dunkirk> Hinata, Try using aptitude to install. It's better as resolving problems.
[21:55] <iceroot> schui_: there is a *.sh on the cd/dvd  just run it
[21:55] <kbp> zoobox: nvm, i've found it from google, thank you
[21:55] <morphix> kbp, ln -s /path/to/dir/test2 /path/to/dir/test1
[21:55] <zoobox> kbp: ok. symlink is more like a pointe "the real file is over there". but if you want to mount a dir somewhere else I think it is  mount --bind olddir newdir
[21:55] <schui_> iceroot: i found that, and managed to get to the part where it asks for the 2nd cd, after i insert the cd it just hangs and doesnt do anything
[21:56] <plitter> hey, what does the command "cp -rp /folder/* " do?
[21:56] <ngirard> Hi all. Do you know of a perl/python/bash script which would give my ip address ? I mean, not the address in my local network but the address of my adsl router

[21:56] <Dunkirk> plitter, copy with "preserve permissions" and "recursive"
[21:56] <iceroot> plitter: nothing there is no target
[21:56] <nibbler> plitter, besides i think it wont do anything as it lacks the target
[21:56] <plitter> i know
[21:56] <plitter> thats what i was wondering
[21:56] <plitter> because it used a long time finishing
[21:57] <kbp> zoobox & morphix: i thinK i need to mount (im moving the drive_c directory of Wine but registry gets involve)
[21:57] <schui_> basically i think its a problem mounting the 2nd cd or something
[21:57] <Dunkirk> Wow. I just figured that was a typo....
[21:57] <Hinata> Dunkirk: http://pastebin.com/d50d0782e
[21:57] <RyanD> hi, i need a hand with my ubuntu install. any takers
[21:57] <morphix> kbp, you can just use symlinks
[21:57] <morphix> i have
[21:57] <morphix> i have vmware and wine and cedega on another drive from my main 1
[21:58] <morphix> due to low hdd space
[21:58] <morphix> just using symlinks and its fine
[21:58] <ngirard> blakkheim: amazingly useful. Thanks a lot !
[21:58] <schui_> iceroot you play ut2004? how did you install it? im thinking about trying wine or something
[21:58] <zoobox> plitter:  -r is including subdirectories, and -p is --preserve=mode,ownership,timestamps. You should allso write to where you want to copy
[21:59] <iceroot> schui_: i was using the dvd
[21:59] <slimAouinet> I use the netbook remix version and tryed with the gconf-editor and the proxy manager from the system group ... is there an other way ?
[21:59] <schui_> oh
[21:59] <Dunkirk> Hinata, This may help: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa
[21:59] <Dunkirk> Hinata, Click the "technical details" link, and it will explain how to use it.
[21:59] <usuario-master_> tas
[21:59] <plitter> zoobox: i didnt write where i wanted to copy... i was in the folder i wanted to copy to so i didnt think it was necessary. do u think it would have broken the files or anything bad with them?
[22:00] <Hinata> Dunkirk: thanks, I'll take a look ^ ^
[22:00] <Dunkirk> plitter, No, you're fine. It was just waiting for the target.
[22:00] <plitter> ahhh
[22:00] <morphix> <blakkheim> ngirard: curl whatismyip.org ; echo << ngirard: curl -s http://www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp ; echo  << that works better.

[22:00] <plitter> thanks:)
[22:00] <infid> i have dual monitors and my compiz 3D cube spins across both monitors and looks not like a cube. what should i do?
[22:00] <RyanD> hi, i need a hand with my ubuntu install. any takers
[22:00] <zoobox> plitter: yeah that is a difference from dos/windows. in linux you have to write to where to. there is no auotmatic "to here".  if you want it to here you can end with    .    wich is current directory
[22:01] <Dunkirk> infid, Get rid of the second monitor?
[22:01] <DasEi> RyanD: details ?
[22:01] <RyanD> ok...i installed using the windows utility and when I get to the boot it drops to the sh:grub/. prompt
[22:01] <highclasshole> infid, if you get ccsm you can adjust how dual montiors output with the cube
[22:02] <RyanD> sh:grub>
[22:02] <slimAouinet> can someone help ...please ?
[22:02] <ngirard> Hi morphix . Why would this work better ?
[22:02] <highclasshole> slimAouinet, what do you need help with
[22:02] <DasEi> RyanD: mmh, wubi, really just a try out-tool.. any important data on it ?
[22:02] <slimAouinet> I have the proxy locked for synaptic
[22:03] <zoobox> infid: you have both monitors working as one desk right? and cube spinning over the margin between them
[22:03] <vvvv> i want to let grub (installed on usb stick) boot the first initrd and kernel that it finds on the first hdd (without manual intervention) so by putting a line in the menu list. There is no boot loader installed on the hdd, is this possible?
[22:03] <RyanD> nope...I tried to dual boot with Win 7 but couldn't get ubuntu to boot
[22:03] <infid> i have ccsm, how do i do it in there
[22:03] <infid> zoobox i have twinview enabled
[22:03] <Dunkirk> RyanD, THis may help: http://orgs.man.ac.uk/documentation/grub/grub_3.html#SEC9
[22:03] <slimAouinet> my web is ok but synaptic and/or apt-get tell me I have a proxy ...
[22:03] <morphix> ngirard, because blakkheim's method will output a pile of html code where as my link simply outputs your IP address only
[22:03] <infid> zoobox so it looks like two cubes side by side for me
[22:04] <highclasshole> infid, in the ccsm when you go to desktop cube
[22:04] <morphix> that link is meant for automation and scripts
[22:04] <DasEi> !who | RyanD, dualboot so
[22:04] <highclasshole> infid, there is an option that says Multi Output Mode
[22:04] <slimAouinet> but when I look in the network configuration , it isn't activated
[22:04] <Michalxo> slimAouinet, open synaptic as root -> preferences -> network
[22:04] <infid> highclasshole: oh i see it thanks
[22:04] <DasEi> RyanD: in which order did you install ?
[22:04] <Dunkirk> RyanD, You can force grub to boot to windows by just typing the commands that grub.conf would do, like rootnoverify (hd0,0), makeactive, chainloader +1
[22:04] <highclasshole> infid, if you say multiple cubes it will do a cube for each screen
[22:04] <ngirard> morphix: okay, thanks very much for these explanations and your solution !
[22:05] <highclasshole> infid, though I prefer one big cube ;)
[22:05] <kermit> is there an X terminal with smooth scrolling?
[22:05] <infid> highclasshole: yeah i like one big cube, now how can i get it so stuff shows on the top and bottom of the cube and not just the sides?
[22:05] <Dunkirk> RyanD, Also, you can fix the MBR with a Windows CD by booting into repair mode.
[22:05] <Michalxo> kermit, tty1-6 :-D
[22:05] <yo2boy> Why isnt Ubuntu 10.04 A2 released yet?
[22:05] <morphix> ngirard, np. i use that link in my scripts so having an output of only the IP address rather than having to trim other output and/or code is ideal :)
[22:05] <DasEi> !lucid | yo2boy
[22:05] <Dunkirk> infid, You're never going to get a cube with two screens. You'll have an octagon, or two cubes.
[22:05] <Michalxo> yo2boy, it has been delayed..
[22:06] <highclasshole> infid, I believe that is on the appearance tab, you can set an image for the top and bottom
[22:06] <yo2boy> DasEi: A2 not final >_>
[22:06] <kermit> Michalxo: how do i enable smooth scrolling in the consoles?
[22:06] <MeXTuX> I have installed vsftpd and have write_enable=YES and anon_upload_enable=YES on /etc/vsftpd.conf. /srv/ftp permissions are drwx r-x r-x 2 root nogroup. I have ubuntu 9.10 and can't get the anonymous users to upload files. Sorry for my poor english
[22:06] <Ed54> wasn't alpha TITFUCK! 2 TITS! supposed to be released today?
[22:06] <Awesome3000> If a partition if formated as Linux-Swap do i have to do anything to activate it
[22:06] <highclasshole> Dunkirk, you can have one big cube...
[22:06] <Dunkirk> infid, Yeah, and the top/bottom images are static. You can't have things running on them.
[22:06] <Ed54> :|
[22:06] <Ed54> tourettes script
[22:06] <ngirard> sure, morphix
[22:06] <Ed54> let's try that again
[22:06] <Dunkirk> highclasshole, Ok. My bad.
[22:06] <Ed54> wasn't alpha 2 supposed to be released today?
[22:06] <blakkheim> !op | Ed54
[22:07] <Slart> Awesome3000: swapon is one command
[22:07] <infid> highclasshole: i think it's in the 'general options>desktop size>vertical virtual size' option in ccsm
[22:07] <Slart> Awesome3000: there's also mkswap which I think formats swap partitions/files before you can use them..
[22:07] <zoobox> Ed54: hmmm yeah https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule says so
[22:08] <Slart> !swap | Awesome3000
[22:08] <RyanD> DasEi - I installed Win first and it is not possible to do a clean install of Win7 as it has a bunch of files and programs
[22:08] <Ed54> zoobox: that's what i was looking at, but i'm not finding the download link anywhere
[22:08] <Michalxo> A2 got delayed guys.. maybe tomorrow, as I heard few mins ago
[22:08] <yo2boy> Michalxo: source
[22:08] <Slart> !lucid
[22:08] <Ed54> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/alpha-2/ doesn't exist
[22:08] <HangukMiguk> this is weird...i have borders around my undecorated urxvt windows
[22:08] <Dunkirk> RyanD, If you're worried about getting back to Windows, you can fix it with the WIndows CD.
[22:08] <Michalxo> yo2boy, #ubuntu+1

[22:08] <slimAouinet> I have a direct Internet connexion but when I install something I have a cannot resolve "proxy name"
[22:09] <dejuren> !help
[22:09] <RyanD> Dunkirk - windows is ok. i want to boot into ubuntu
[22:09] <nibbler> slimAouinet, then your proxy info is not correct
[22:09] <morphix> MeXTuX, try sudo chmod -r 777 /srv/ftp
[22:09] <Hinata> Dunkirk: it worked, thanks ^ ^ / Now lets see if I can make anything work on that ^ ^
[22:09] <slimAouinet> I have no proxy at home
[22:10] <dejuren> !launchpad
[22:10] <nibbler> slimAouinet, seems you ahve configured one
[22:10] <Slart> morphix: isn't it -R since -r is used to remove read rights?
[22:10] <cjae> I am using ntfsundelete and have a range of recoverable inodes may i just list them with a hyphen eg. ntfsundelete /dev/sdc1 -u -i 57886-57890  even if ntfsundelete never gave me number 57889 for a recoverable inode listing
[22:10] <dejuren> !video
[22:10] <infid> highclasshole: i also have dual-monitors and no matter what i do to my xorg.conf it keeps showing my gnome panel only on the right monitor instead of the left monitor. any ideas?
[22:10] <Slart> morphix: or perhaps it ignores that when you use numerics for the permissions..
[22:10] <dejuren> !sound
[22:10] <morphix> Slart, yeh -R forgot upper
[22:11] <slimAouinet> yes, ok at the office, I used an ethernet connexion and now, I use the wifi but ...
[22:11] <Awesome3000> highclasshole  can you change your nick
[22:11] <Michalxo> slimAouinet, try thgis -> alt+f2 -> gconf-editor -> edit -> find -> proxy tick both
[22:11] <Ziber> I just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 today, and found a weird error. http://zpaste.org/7045
[22:11] <edzik> Witam :)
[22:11] <morphix> MeXTuX, try sudo chmod -R 777 /srv/ftp

[22:11] <slimAouinet> Michaxo: I tryed allready ...
[22:12] <DasEi> RyanD: so is your windows-start still in order or are both os'es unaccesible ?
[22:12] <Michalxo> slimAouinet, no idea then, sry
[22:12] <Slart> Ziber: I can't reproduce it on 9.10... perhaps they fixed it in the newer version
[22:12] <edzik> why after restart, my resolution change from 1680x1050 to 800x600??
[22:13] <edzik> why after restart, my resolution change from 1680x1050 to 800x600??
[22:13] <Ziber> Any else run into it? http://zpaste.org/7045
[22:13] <edzik> anybody know
[22:13] <Slart> edzik: no need to spam your question.. you'll only make people angry
[22:14] <mauri> i've download .tar.bz2 package source. Is there a command able to see which are his dependences requested?
[22:14] <Awesome3000> how to check if my swap is working
[22:14] <DasEi> edzig: can use mode aprameter in xorg.conf to set default resolution
[22:14] <blakkheim> mauri: no, it should list them on the site you got it from
[22:14] <DasEi> !resolution | edzig
[22:14] <Slart> edzik: if you want good answers you might want to include some more information.. what kind of computer you're using, graphics card, version of ubuntu, error logs etc etc
[22:14] <edzik> sorry but my english is bad
[22:14] <Dark_Helmut> need some help setting up VPN,  my log says: "Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2" then "Modem Hangup"
[22:15] <GentooJay> infid, i think there is an option in twinview to specific the main monitor
[22:15] <Slart> Awesome3000: if you start the system monitor there is a meter for swap used
[22:15] <Maletor> !ot
[22:15] <Dark_Helmut> should it not be trying to use my wireless connection (which is what I am connected with)?
[22:15] <morphix> Awesome3000, in terminal type, swapon -s
[22:15] <mauri> blakkheim: have time to help me some minutos more?
[22:15] <slimAouinet> Is there a specific file where the proxy is configured for the packages tools (dpkg, synaptic,apt-get, aptitude)?
[22:15] <morphix> it should provide you back with /dev/sd or similar
[22:15] <RyanD> DasEi - to be honest I haven't tried to boot into win7 yet but it is listed in the win boot loader so it probably will boot but I can fix it if it doesn't
[22:15] <Slart> Awesome3000: you can always try using lots of memory.. I think there are some stress test tools in the repository you can use if you want
[22:15] <nibbler> Dark_Helmut, what kind of vpn are you trying?
[22:15] <Ziber> Any else run into this? http://zpaste.org/7045
[22:15] <morphix> if not, then swap is not enabled
[22:15] <morphix> Ziber, stop spamming.
[22:15] <Slart> !repeat | Ziber
[22:16] <Johnny_425> Whenever I try to use "chmod" in terminal is says unknown command, Help!!!
[22:16] <Awesome3000> morphix & Slart  Thanks
[22:16] <infid> GentooJay: you're a genius
[22:16] <Slart> Awesome3000: you're welcome
[22:16] <schui_> anyone know how i would copy this file: linux-installer.sh to desktop via terminal?
[22:16] <Indy^> I found in the Grub 2 Wiki that as of version 1.96 of GRUB 2, theme support is not enabled.  Has anyone seen or heard of any movement on this?
[22:16] <morphix> Awesome3000, np
[22:16] <DasEi> RyanD: so you installed karmic after win 7, now have grub with a windows entry and a karmic that won't boot
[22:16] <schui_> from a cd
[22:16] <Slart> schui_: cp /where/ever/the/file/is/located/linux-installer.sh ~/Desktop/
[22:17] <MHz128> After installing openbox, and changing the theme with "obconf", nothing is happening! how do I apply these settings?
[22:17] <blakkheim> MHz128: they are applied
[22:17] <kinja-sheep> !bash | schui_
[22:17] <MHz128> blakkheim, I've changed the window theme, nothing changed...
[22:17] <xgpt> hello everyone
[22:17] <DasEi> RyanD: did you try to boot safemode ?
[22:18] <blakkheim> MHz128: are you using ONLY openbox or gnome with openbox?
[22:18] <MHz128> blakkheim, gnome/openbox
[22:18] <blakkheim> MHz128: then i can't help sorry
[22:18] <MHz128> ohh ic
[22:18] <RyanD> DasEi - that was my problem yesterday. so i gave up and blew away the linux part and installed from within win7 (wubi??) now i have a ubuntu entry in my win bootloader but grub drops to the sh:grub> prompt
[22:18] <infid> i haved 6gb of ram and yet everytime i start upfirefox it takes like 10 seconds before that spinning loading icon thing stops. What's up with that?
[22:18] <blakkheim> RyanD: i recommend you do a real install without wubi
[22:18] <infid> i dont even have any plugins installed in it
[22:19] <infid> and only one tab
[22:19] <Slart> infid: firefox isn't limited by free memory?
[22:19] <kinja-sheep> infid: 32bit?
[22:19] <iceroot> in /etc/passwd there is my shell defined. i am using zsh by default but if i am using a pc without zsh installed (passwd with ldap) i get password incorrect. is there a way to use a fallback-shell in /etc/passwd?
[22:19] <infid> kinja-sheep: 64bit
[22:19] <blakkheim> infid: ram has nothing to do with how fast a program starts up
[22:19] <xgpt> i have a quick question about which version in need to install
[22:19] <infid> blakkheim: well it's also a quad core cpu
[22:19] <Slart> infid: it might be waiting for something else.. io.. network latency.. cpu stuff
[22:19] <RyanD> blakkheim - when I did that i would get an error that grub couldn't find my root disk
[22:19] <infid> blakkheim: with an nvidia geforce 9500gt
[22:19] <xgpt> if I install the 8.04 LTS server, will i be able to upgrade straight to the next LTS?
[22:19] <infid> Slart: i have verizon fios
[22:19] <xgpt> or will I need to go through another version?
[22:19] <Jeruvy> xgpt: yep
[22:19] <blakkheim> infid: firefox is a big bloated program. your cpu has a bit to do with it, gpu has nothing to do with it. the bottleneck is your hard drive
[22:20] <Slart> xgpt: the next LTS isn't out yet.. but I think you'll be able to upgrade to it, yes
[22:20] <Ziber> anyone seen http://zpaste.org/7045 before?
[22:20] <kinja-sheep> infid: You could install prelink if that will help. I use that.
[22:20] <xgpt> Jeruvy: so if I download this older 8.04 LTS, i'll be able to go *straight* to the next LTS?
[22:20] <infid> blakkheim: it's a fresh install of ubuntu on a 500gb sata drive
[22:20] <morphix> infid, try opera :P
[22:20] <Slart> Ziber: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[22:20] <infid> firefox doesnt seem to do this on my netbook
[22:20] <Jeruvy> xgpt: by default, you can reconfigure it to go through all the non-LTS
[22:20] <RyanD> does 9.10 have a problem installing on  hardware raid?
[22:20] <Awesome3000> infid  Or google chrome
[22:20] <Dark_Helmut> nibbler, trying to connect to VyprVPN
[22:21] <Ziber> Slart: 9.04. "command-not-found" not found.
[22:21] <iceroot> xgpt: if it is out you can upgrade directly
[22:21] <blakkheim> infid: ubuntu isn't exactly the leanest, quickest distro of linux. firefox is a very large program and unless you're using an SSD (like i am) it will take a few seconds to open
[22:21] <morphix> infid, test with another browser see if it occurs the same
[22:21] <infid> Awesome3000: how do i get google chrome for ubuntu? jump through hoops or is it in apt yet?
[22:21] <Slart> Ziber: do you have a question?
[22:21] <morphix> i had a similar problem but it was due to DNS
[22:21] <Ziber> Slart: how to fix that?
[22:21] <Dark_Helmut> nibbler, mpppe I think it is...
[22:21] <morphix> DNS was slow to resolve, so firefox took a bit to show the site upon load
[22:21] <morphix> but it could be 100% unrelated.
[22:21] <Slart> Ziber: have you looked through synaptic for "command not found" ?
[22:21] <iceroot> Ziber: sudo apt-get install command-not-found
[22:21] <infid> can it hurt my battery to have my powersupply plugged into my Eeepc 24/7. ie can it overcharge the battery?
[22:22] <MHz128> blakkheim, ok, how do I change the openbox desktop background? is there a taskbar application? or somethhing similar?
[22:22] <klappi> he could change his homepage to blank and check this out
[22:22] <morphix> infid, http://www.google.com/chrome/eula.html?platform=linux
[22:22] <blakkheim> MHz128: you can use a program like nitrogen or feh to change the wallpaper. there is no taskbar application by default either.
[22:22] <iceroot> infid: no not overcharged but memory-effect because its using the battery not the powersupply directly
[22:22] <iceroot> infid: remove the batterie if you dont need it
[22:22] <infid> i really love all my firefox plugins though. i could never leave the browser until chrome supported htem all
[22:22] <MHz128> blakkheim, is there a third party taskbar app i can install?
[22:23] <blakkheim> MHz128: there are many
[22:23] <Slart> infid: I think modern computers are quite good with charging batteries.. ie not over charging and so on.. but the battery usually get quite warm and that isn't very good for its health.. I would remove it
[22:23] <infid> iceroot: well i still unplug it and just go off the battery a few hours a day
[22:23] <iceroot> infid: ok
[22:23] <MHz128> blakkheim, where can I find a list of common/popular openbox apps to use?
[22:23] <bdelin88> I want to use the terminal to search for every file called desktop.ini and delete every instance of it in a given directory (and recursively) how do I do this please?
[22:24] <blakkheim> MHz128: dunno. lxpanel, gnome-panel, tint2 are some popular ones
[22:24] <infid> ugh, after just starting to use the 3d desktop cube now eveyrtime i look at my screen i feel like it's moving, even when it's not. will this pass? :P
[22:24] <gabrielsimon> MHZ128 > you'll get that list you want
[22:24] <MHz128> blakkheim, gnome-panel is docking my openbox windows... :P
[22:24] <Slart> bdelin88: "find" will do that for you.. something like     find /some/folder/ -iname desktop.ini --exec rm {} \;
[22:24] <MHz128> gabrielsimon, ??
[22:25] <bdelin88> Slart: thank you!
[22:25] <Slart> bdelin88: I might be a little wrong about the syntax.. man find  will tell you more
[22:25] <blakkheim> MHz128: i misread what you said, i thought you were asking for panels. there are no "openbox apps" - you can use any apps
[22:25] <klappi> bdelin88: dangerious no warranty: find / -type f -name "desktop.ini" | xargs rm
[22:25] <infid> dont use xargs rm
[22:25] <Dantonic> !flac
[22:25] <tabamatu> infid: i prescribe two doses of alt+tab and a dark room. you'll be fine :)
[22:25] <infid> heh
[22:25] <Slart> bdelin88: don't test it with "rm".. you'll just end up deleting files you didn't want to delete.. start with --exec echo {} \;    instead
[22:25] <bdelin88> thnx
[22:25] <klappi> infid: because of names with spaces?
[22:26] <MHz128> blakkheim, no worries. Gnome-panel is great. But how do I make it dock the windows? they are minimizing to 'nowhere' hehehe
[22:26] <blakkheim> MHz128: do you have the applet added for windows  being docked to it?
[22:26] <infid> klappi:  yeah but i guess it's ok for this commandm, aside from ingraining a bad habit
[22:26] <noobuser> Is there any benefit to be gained from having two Wi-Fi adaptors installed in my PC?
[22:27] <Dextronaught> I'm using Karmic on a laptop with a headset. my microphone sounds all staticy, and and sometimes it's fixed when I remove pulseaudio and use esound, but then when I restart I completely lose my mic, and somehow reinstalling pulseaudio and such gives my mic back, any ideas? help please. :-)
[22:27] <klappi> infid: sorry shame on me
[22:27] <morphix> noobuser, if you had 2 wireless networks you could connect to, you could route your internet for different sites amongst the 2 connections
[22:27] <DasEi> noobuser: same model ?
[22:27] <MHz128> blakkheim, weird. I ran it from terminal, nothing happened. ran it from gnome-do, and now its fine :p
[22:27] <noobuser> DasEi: Different models.
[22:28] <obiwan_> hiiiii!
[22:28] <DasEi> noobuser: so no bounding then
[22:28] <Dextronaught> EastDallas
[22:28] <morphix> bonding wouldnt benefit speeds anyway
[22:28] <morphix> for wireless
[22:29] <noobuser> DasEi: What is bounding?
[22:29] <rek> hi i want a bunch of text based programs
[22:29] <DasEi> noobuser: you put two nics together as one
[22:29] <noobuser> morphix: What if I have two Wi-Fi networks available to me?
[22:29] <noobuser> Two ISPs?
[22:29] <morphix> as ever user who connects to the access point slows the connections down eg. 3 connections you get 1/3 of the 54mbit speed on 11g
[22:29] <noobuser> DasEi: So I'd get double the speed?
[22:29] <MHz128> blakkheim, thanks for the advice!
[22:29] <morphix> noobuser, that could work
[22:30] <adminuser> ff
[22:30] <morphix> noobuser, i used to share my internet with my neighbour and his shared with me
[22:30] <Dextronaught> I'm using Karmic on a laptop with a headset. my microphone sounds all staticy, and and sometimes it's fixed when I remove pulseaudio and use esound, but then when I restart I completely lose my mic, and somehow reinstalling pulseaudio and such gives my mic back, any ideas? help please. :-)
[22:30] <Dark_Helmut> need some help setting up VPN,  my log says: "Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2" then "Modem Hangup"
[22:30] <Dark_Helmut> should it not be trying to use my wireless connection (which is what I am connected with)?
[22:30] <Dextronaught> :(((((((
[22:30] <rek> hi i want a bunch of text based programs
[22:30] <morphix> so i was using both mine and his internet together and routing it appropriately.
[22:30] <Chard1> later guys... i'm going to go get drunk
[22:30] <nixjr> why can i not change file permissions? im using nautilus and im the owner of the file(s)
[22:30] <DasEi> noobuser: on wired, morphix is right on most wireless routers, as they share the load with clients, depends also on accespoint and wireless dapter
[22:30] <klappi> rek: infocom adventures?
[22:31] <Slart> nixjr: are the files on an fat32 or ntfs drive?
[22:31] <noobuser> morphix: Yeah, that's kind of what I'm able to do.
[22:31] <dash9> Hi, when I right-click on the desktop and keep the button pressed and move the mouse and choose a menu item, I can activate it. If I right-click without moving the mouse, it has a different behaviour, the menu remains visible. My question: How can I specify the threshold to be larger?
[22:31] <cjae> ok so I used ntfsundelete /dev/sdc1 -u -i 27-57890 -d ~/Recovery but it it keeps telling me couldn''t create file, file exists so must I create a new file name for each inode entry?
[22:31] <Chard1> i will most likely be in need of support when i get back
[22:31] <noobuser> morphix: Except that my Wi-Fi cards are different models.
[22:31] <rek> klappi: what
[22:31] <nixjr> Slart, yes its an ntfs
[22:31] <morphix> that doesn't matter if you are going to be using 2 different networks
[22:31] <RyanD> you can do link-aggregation on Ubuntu??
[22:31] <Dextronaught> sucks that I can't get any help. :(
[22:32] <Slart> nixjr: I don't think ubuntu cares about file permissions on ntfs drives
[22:32] <HangukMiguk> does anyone know a fix to get borders off of undecorated urxvt windows?
[22:32] <paulEU> Hi all, I have problem with setting properly display resolution on VirtualPC2007, I've installed ubuntu 9.10 and I did set modeline into /etc/X11/xorg.conf like that: Modeline "1280x960@60" 105.68 1280 1312 1712 1744 960<PHONE_NUMBER> but this setting isn't applied - I see only max 1024x768. Where is mistake? This modeline I've generated via website
[22:32] <schui_> so yeah im still having this problem: installing ut2004, get through the install up to where it asks for cd 2. so i insert cd 2, and choose yes to continue. except that nothing happens until i close it :S what should i do?
[22:33] <bdelin88> Slart: If there's anyway you could help me out a little bit more I would appreciate it... I looked through man page but my brain just doesn't think well to use the terminal right just yet... if you can offer any more assistance i would very much appreciate it.  I tried your example and it says paths must precede expression: exec...which I thought it did
[22:33] <klappi> rek: i was joking (old text adventure computer games)
[22:33] <Slart> bdelin88: ok... what command did you try?
[22:34] <nixjr> Slart, the reason im trying to chnage the file permissions is because there are many files (txt, jpg, cue ... etc) all marked as being executables, how might i fix that?
[22:34] <bdelin88> find media/Media/ -iname desktop.ini exec echo {}\;
[22:34] <bdelin88> Slart: sorry, forgot to highlight: find media/Media/ -iname desktop.ini exec echo {}\;
[22:34] <Slart> nixjr: I think you can change that in your fstab file.. although I'm not sure exactly what to do..
[22:34] <bliffle> Anyone have a fix for 9.10 to get a Thinkpad X60s dialup modem working?
[22:34] <Slart> ¡ntfs | nixjr, perhaps there are some info here
[22:34] <Slart> !ntfs | nixjr, perhaps there are some info here
[22:35] <rek> klappi: ok like dink smallwood? ok i need applications
[22:35] <bdelin88> bliffle: better google that, dialup modems can be problematic because of the "winmodems"
[22:35]  * paradigm_ is so excited, just got ubuntu installed on new quad core lappy and everything works and it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!
[22:35] <Slart> bdelin88: ok change that to    find /media/Media/ -iname desktop.ini -exec echo {}\;
[22:35] <Slart> bdelin88: then try it again..
[22:35] <mack_million> hello does anyone here know about wpa?
[22:35] <schui_> wow i fixed it
[22:35] <Slart> !anyone | mack_million
[22:36] <nixjr> Slart, only my second day using linux, its hard to know where to start looking, thank you for the help, ill start reading
[22:36] <bliffle> I've been thrashing thru ubuntuforums
[22:36] <gmachine24> *thrashing*
[22:36] <paulEU_> wrr
[22:36] <bdelin88> Slart: yes!  thank you!!
[22:36] <HangukMiguk> bliffle: http://linmodems.org/
[22:36] <Slart> nixjr: check that link ubottu sent you..  you can also google for "ntfs permissions ubuntu".. that ought to get you some good hits
[22:36] <paulEU_> anybody wrote to me? ;)
[22:36] <kernel_geek> do you think on a 100mb network 10mb/s for nfs is a good transfer speed ?
[22:36] <Spaseeee> kde > openbox? O_O
[22:36] <Slart> bdelin88: yay.. you're welcome
[22:37] <miranda_> can i get help for ubuntu server here?
[22:37] <bdelin88> Slart: that is awesome, sorry...still learning terminal lol
[22:37] <paradigm_> I last used linux 10 years ago, and have use XP since.    Ubuntu linux is light years ahead of where I last saw linux. I'm blown away
[22:37] <DasEi> miranda_: general ubuntu, #ubuntu-server is there, too
[22:37] <Slart> kernel_geek: nope.. 10 mb/s isn't very good.. 10 MB/s on the other hand is pretty normal
[22:37] <mack_million> Ive been delving into wpa security and I have a question about wordlists...I know you can put a dictionary file into aircrack, but I understand that you need to specially create a rainbow table based on the BSSID...is this necessary or does aircrack automatically parse the words in the list for the specific BSSID in the .cap file???
[22:37] <nixjr> Slart, slightly off topic, am i right in assuming file extensions mean nothing in linux?
[22:37] <miranda_> DasEi, Thanks you so much
[22:37] <kernel_geek> Slart: lol :D
[22:37] <Slart> nixjr: correct.. although I think gnome might use them for some superficial stuff
[22:37] <pontus> need help istalling cam plz help
[22:38] <klappi> nixjr: try the file command its nice
[22:38] <paradigm_> I've been playing with all the gnome visual effects all day, lol
[22:38] <Slart> kernel_geek: to explain a little bit more.. 10 Mbit/s is pretty poor.. 10 MByte/s is pretty normal.. capital B for byte, lower case b for bit
[22:38] <mack_million> if anyone knows about cracking WPA, please see my question above...thanks in advance!!
[22:39] <kernel_geek> Slart, I know, typo
[22:39] <kernel_geek> twhy are you wpa cracking ^o) ?
[22:39] <digitalfiz> $ screen ./sc_serv
[22:39] <digitalfiz> Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/0' - please check.
[22:39] <digitalfiz> anyone know how to fix this?
[22:39] <pontus> need help installing cam  it's downloaded to /usr/src/modules
[22:39] <nixjr> klappi, will do, if theres one thing ive learn so far its that linux=reading lol
[22:40] <jsec> is anyone familiar with the touch command? I know you can use it for creating random empty files, but is it possible to use it to create a few random pieces of text inside those files?
[22:40] <plazia> mack_million, it's not specifically an ubuntu thing is it really? better asked in #security perhaps?
[22:40] <mack_million> i am a network administrator for an IT company and trying to learn for security purposes.  plus, I like to mess around with all types of computer stuff
[22:40] <mack_million> ok, thanks plazia
[22:40] <rahduke1> can someone explain why my internet speed is so damn slow when I use my router? I have my modem plugged into my router and my main computer connected via Ethernet to router
[22:40] <plazia> mack_million, no worries mate.
[22:40] <Slart> jsec: I think touch is really used to update the files "latest access" date.. it's more of a secondary effect that if the file doesn't exist it gets created
[22:41] <klappi> jsec: text like random data or real words?
[22:41] <Slart> jsec: you can use something like "echo blabla > somefile"  this will create a file with the text "blabla"
[22:42] <jsec> Slart, yeah, but it was just nice be able to go "touch blah blah blah" and have all those files instantly created.
[22:42] <jsec> klappi, real words
[22:42] <Slart> jsec: ah.. yes.. it's very convenient.. perhaps if you explain what you are trying to do we might be able to help you better
[22:43] <klappi> jsec: you could use /usr/share/dict/words if you have such a file
[22:44] <jsec> Slart: originally I was working on a program that recursively searched directories for files with certain names. Now the project has morphed into searching for certain words within files (ie. recursively searching a directory/subdirectories and then searching through each file)
[22:44] <Slart> jsec: duplicating grep? =)
[22:44] <jsec> essentially yes :)
[22:45] <Slart> jsec: ok.. and you need some example material?
[22:45] <morphix> why not use grep?
[22:45] <morphix> like.. grep "word" -R /path/to/start/*
[22:45] <jsec> Slart: I was really just seeing if there was a command similar to touch for creating files with random words and such so I don't spend as much time creating throwaway files
[22:45] <Slart> morphix: because then you dont get to write it yourself =)
[22:46] <morphix> yeh but writing something that already exists seems..pointless?
[22:46] <Slart> jsec: why not try using manpages? lots of text in those
[22:46] <jsec> morphix: such are the trials of a college student :(
[22:46] <jsec> Slart: I'll have to take a look at it and see if I can turn something up. Thanks for the advice.
[22:47] <Slart> jsec: you're welcome
[22:48] <phoenixz> Is there anything known about the Intel driver in Kubuntu 9.10? The actual drivers (the default "new" one and the fall back) are both HORRIBLE.. the new one causes me having to wait 30 seconds to see the 30 characters I just typed.. The fallback is still slow as hell, though now I "only" have to wait 5 seconds.. but with this one, suspend hangs my machine and every now and then, at random, the screen blanks and never comes back forcing me to restart the
[22:48] <phoenixz> machine..
[22:48] <phoenixz> In other words, current intel drivers suck balls, pardon my French
[22:48] <phoenixz> Is there any news on a new Intel driver that actually ... eh.. just works?
[22:48] <morphix> hmm.. some odd reason 1 of the buttons on my laptop (it being usually a button to change power management for windows) seems to have set itself to lock the screen when pressed.
[22:49] <protojay> phoenixz, get a real gfx card!
[22:49] <morphix> phoenixz, mine works fine. i can even play hd flash and its fine
[22:49] <DasEi> phoenixz: from what I heard support is much better now in karmic, which chipset ?
[22:49] <Slart> phoenixz: hmm.. and I was just thinking of getting a laptop with an intel graphics card.. I thought they had fixed this in 9.10
[22:49] <gerst__> does someone have geforce 8400?
[22:49] <phoenixz> protojay: Sure, I'll either buy a new laptop or somehow rebuild the motherboard of this laptop so that it has an ATI.. ? Something realistic maybe? Anyway, if the drivers are crap, it doesnt matter what hardware you have..
[22:50] <morphix> phoenixz, ati.. noooo
[22:50] <gerst__> Im having trouble with tv out.. all I get on my tv is like no signal.. it works under windoz
[22:50] <morphix> geforce.
[22:50] <phoenixz> Slart: don't.. at least not for 9.10.. 9.04 and 9.10 were both crap, but if you ask me, 9.10 actualy got it worse..
[22:50] <phoenixz> morphix: no, ANY hardwar should work!
[22:50] <morphix> ati has issues
[22:50] <Slart> phoenixz: ouch..  I'll be sure to try a live cd in the store then... make sure it works before I hand over any cash
[22:51] <klappi> phoenixz: you could check ppa for better intel drivers may be
[22:51] <morphix> nvidia cards have the best support in linux
[22:51] <protojay> ati is crap but better than  intel
[22:52] <Myke1> Hey everyone
[22:53] <protojay> hey myke
[22:53] <bef0rd> hello, I have installed ubuntu on this laptop, and when I go to the virtual terminal 1 it works ok, but when I go back to the  vt 7 (x terminal) my laptop suspends
[22:53] <phoenixz> klappi: nop.. the PPA intel driver is what I have now.. its like 3x faster (but the original is like 30 times slower than normal, so the ppa is still 10x slower anyway) but it gives random screen blanks.. when that happens, I can't do anythihg but reset the computer
[22:54] <phoenixz> Slart: If I can recommaend you anything, its going for either ATI or NVIDIA
[22:54] <phoenixz> Slart: or, like morphix said, maybe just nvidia :)
[22:54] <klappi> phoenixz: sorry it was just an idea
[22:54] <Slart> phoenixz: mm.. I think I'll stick to nvidia then.. ati is scary =)
[22:54] <klappi> klappi: i have nvidia 9800gt
[22:54] <morphix> phoenixz, thats odd, this machine has a Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics and it works perfectly fine, heck even compiz works 100% perfect.
[22:54] <phoenixz> DasEi: Intel I945.. either the new driver, or the v2.4 fallback are both crap..
[22:55] <morphix> I945 eek..
[22:55] <phoenixz> morphix: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[22:55] <morphix> ah
[22:55] <morphix> yeh, its just a crap card. lol
[22:56] <morphix> i wish i had nvidia, but this is my work machine.
[22:56] <phoenixz> morphix: I know its a <insert something bad> card, but I've seen it working a whole lot faster than its running now.. on 8.04 it was FAST actually... 2d and 3d... well, relatively fast that is :)
[22:56] <ardchoille> !hcl
[22:57] <phoenixz> Thing is, how come that in the year 2010, linux STILL requires very specific hardware, or you will be screwed with problems?
[22:57] <obiwan_> hi please, i have a wrong pgp id which i did with seahorse. I made another id for the same key, then removed the wrong one. But i do gpg --send-key and --update-key to keyserver.ubuntu.com. But when i search the ubuntu keyserver database, there's still the wrong id for my key. What can i do?
[22:57] <phoenixz> I mean, how much longer do we have to wait before we finally have *at least* normal GFX support?
[22:57] <morphix> cause most drivers are made for windows
[22:58] <morphix> thats why i stick with nvidia cards
[22:58] <morphix> i have no issues.
[22:58] <phoenixz> because with all drivers that the linux kernel has, GFX support is still crap at best..
[22:58] <phoenixz> Worse, how come that when somehting is working fine, suddenly a new version makes that its not working fine anymore?? My Intel card was working fine before..
[22:59] <klappi> phoenixz: youre right i suffer having no speed step with my grep i945 motherboard
[22:59] <phoenixz> I mean, this is not something that will get linux to be universally accepted as a desktop OS..
[22:59] <protojay> poor driver testing prolly
[22:59] <klappi> phoenixz: i have a core duo 3GHZ and run it on 667MHZ all the time, sad
[23:00] <schui_> well, i finally got ut2004 to install
[23:00] <Indy^> reeeeally
[23:00] <klappi> schui_: gz
[23:01] <schui_> now im having trouble to run it, i get this error: /ut2004-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[23:01] <schui_> i think im missing some file
[23:01] <phoenixz> Not flaming here, I think great work is being done, but the practical situation as is now needs to change.. I'm quite the computer guy, when having problems like this, I work to fix them as best as I can (though right now its just not possible).. but like my parents for example? My dad was lucky, his comp. works fine, he loves linux.. My mom had it replaced again with windows, just because of gfx and printer driver issues..
[23:01] <jsec> schui: search on google for it
[23:01] <jsec> there is a .deb out there that takes care of it, for some reason 9.10 omitted the c++ standard lib
[23:02] <schui_> ah i see
[23:02] <ardchoille> schui_: apt-cache search -n libstdc++
[23:02] <protojay> phoenixz, its the whole conseqeunce of having such a low market share in linux... but thats howlinux is designed... difficult to use and unintuitive
[23:02] <|nv|s|ble> i take it ffmpeg is better than mencoder?
[23:02] <jsec> schui: http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/libstdc++5
[23:03] <carp> how can i get save changes on my ubuntu USB stick?
[23:03] <rakista> ffmpeg has better compatibility
[23:03] <|nv|s|ble> ic..tx
[23:03] <morphix> phoenixz, the reason for problems is due to the support by the manufacturer of devices not having linux drivers or crap implementations, its not the fault of linux developers for lack of suport given.
[23:03] <|nv|s|ble> any reason brasero crashes on burn?..
[23:03] <schui_> what one should i download?
[23:03] <phoenixz> protojay: umm... disagree with the last thing you said.. Linux is intuitive, and very easy to use.. any problem in linux usually is fixed with ease, in windows usually it can not even be fixed.. And the programs are exelent too.. its just the drivers that suck..
[23:03] <Ziber> how can i specify a boot image i want to use if i have a new one?
[23:04] <ardchoille> schui_: please don't use packages designed for debian on  your ubuntu system, that's asking for trouble mixing distros like that
[23:04] <morphix> windows its usually a format to fix a lot of problems :P
[23:04] <protojay> phoenixz, i genenrally find things easier to fix in windows
[23:04] <pixalen> anyone got some tips for handy apps?
[23:04] <schui_> ardchoille: i typed the command you said in terminal
[23:04] <morphix> handy apps?
[23:04] <schui_> is that what you meant to do?
[23:04] <protojay> phoenixz, too much havin to read documentation and enter cli mode in linux
[23:05] <RyanD> for anyone who was wondering 9.10 won't install on a RAID part
[23:05] <ardchoille> schui_: yes, that searches for libstdc++ in the repos
[23:05] <phoenixz> morphix: :) Again, not blaming developers.. Just mentioning that a) When something works, make sure it KEEPS working and not just some day stops.. b) at least the basic drivers, like GFX and audio should just be done better..
[23:05] <carp> someone pls?
[23:05] <jsec> ardchoille: i understand what you're saying, but seeing as ubuntu is debian-based, would it be that big of a deal?
[23:05] <pixalen> Handy apps, i ment like.. applications that are good to have. i just installed ubuntu
[23:05] <Ziber> how can i specify a boot image i want to use if i have a new one?
[23:05] <protojay> phoenixz, drivers are hard to get working without the support of hte vendors
[23:05] <phoenixz> protojay: Not using CLI in linux, still easier to fix most things.. when including the CLI, forget windows ever existed..
[23:05] <ardchoille> jsec: yes, it's that big a deal
[23:05] <schui_> ardchoille: so i entered the command, what now?
[23:05] <morphix> phoenixz, i agree, but blame the manufacturers instead of bashing linux.
[23:05] <schui_> it had a big list of things
[23:05] <phoenixz> protojay: I know..
[23:06] <ardchoille> jsec: "based on debian" does not mean it's equally compatible with debian's packages
[23:06] <klappi> pixalen: check out software center
[23:06] <phoenixz> morphix: again, not bashing Linux.. Believe me, me loves Linux
[23:06] <protojay> phoenixz, your average user seems to think linux is much harder than windows
[23:06] <ardchoille> schui_: what did it return? you needed libstdc++ correct?
[23:06] <jsec> ardchoille: makes sense. i thought they were more alike than they really are
[23:06] <schui_> The GNU Standard C++ Library v3
[23:06] <rakista> Tweaking windows is a lot more arcane than Linux, the windows registry is a mess
[23:06] <protojay> phoenixz, i will agree, things are improved massively... but there are alot of things in linux which arent implemented in the prettyest way
[23:07] <phoenixz> protojay: ah, but thats another story.. My dad also thought the same.. not because it is more difficult, its different.. once he tried it for a day he never looked back
[23:07] <ardchoille> schui_: which version of ubuntu are you running?
[23:07] <Coded1> i wanted to try out karmic but when it boots I get a corrupted display when it goes to graphics mode, I have a nvidia 6200 GPU, any ideas?
[23:07] <rejohn> back after connection drop
[23:07] <phoenixz> protojay: like what? (and don't mention drivers, I already have that, heheh)
[23:07] <schui_> 2.28.1 i think
[23:07] <phoenixz> rakista: windows registry is a blasphemy...
[23:08] <Dextronaught> I'm using Karmic on a laptop with a headset. my microphone sounds all staticy, and and sometimes it's fixed when I remove pulseaudio and use esound, but then when I restart I completely lose my mic, and somehow reinstalling pulseaudio and such gives my mic back, any ideas? help please. :-)
[23:08] <schui_> q.. is there a way to enter someones name to get their attntion without typing it?
[23:08] <schui_> lol
[23:08] <ardchoille> schui_: no, open a terminal and run lsb_release -r
[23:08] <schui_> ah, 9.10 :)
[23:08] <phoenixz> rakista: The entire windows organization is a blasphemy.. in linux, from the folder you can already see what contents it will havge.. in linux, drivers and images and libraries are all mixed, its one huge pile..
[23:08] <lip> oh my god
[23:08]  * Claudiu is away: Away for now ..
[23:09] <protojay> phoenixz, like one day my entire system stopped booting up, configuring dual monitor support, configuring the desktop is sloppy
[23:09] <phoenixz> rakista: not to mention the directies called 23LK-J42-K3J4-L2KJ-34LK-J234-LKJ2-K3L4
[23:09] <miranda_> i do have a very high fan noise on my laptop, bios fan option is not activated, and i cannot use pwmconfig as it says i do not have any capable sensors. The cpu load is around 7 or 8 % and cpu temp is around 55C. It seems that the fan is just STUCK at that speed. Any ideas on how to track the issue down?
[23:09] <termina|> how do you type a space into terminal?
[23:09] <macman_> termina|: space bar ?
[23:09] <termina|> macman_: i mean when typing file names
[23:09] <Ziber> \
[23:09] <phoenixz> protojay: configuring dual monitor in KDE is pretty okay, be it if driver support is okay :)
[23:09] <rakista> It is strange though there are Windows Gurus but they don't share their knowledge for free
[23:09] <Ziber> termina|: \
[23:10] <morphix> Terminator, eg. file\ name
[23:10] <schui_> ardchoille: its 9.10 or the latest i just updated it
[23:10] <termina|> Ziber: thanks
[23:10] <morphix> for a "\" before the space
[23:10] <ardchoille> schui_: you're on 9.10? you should have libstdc++ installed
[23:10] <phoenixz> protojay: desktop configuration sloppy? try kde, 4.4 is be-au-ti-ful..
[23:10] <morphix> put*
[23:10] <protojay> phoenixz, configuring the boot loading? generally the whole slew of configuration files in /etc/
[23:10] <progre55> hi people! any ways to fix the problem with flash eating up so much processor while playing flash-apps on browser?
[23:10] <ardchoille> schui_: perhaps that app can't find it
[23:10] <protojay> phoenixz, grub2
[23:10] <phoenixz> protojay: thats the beauty of it.. I never ever configured boot loading.. its rare having to do that..
[23:10] <schui_> ardchoille: i think i'm missing an older file or something
[23:10] <protojay> phoenixz, users want nice easy screens to show them what to do... not reams of online documentation
[23:11] <macman_> sorry guys .. switch from consle to X
[23:11] <Jeruvy> progre55: not really, thats just the way flash is.
[23:11] <ardchoille> schui_: ah, could be, libstdc++5 is older
[23:11] <phoenixz> protojay:true.. but what user will ever modify boot loader configuration? thats like.. never?
[23:11] <progre55> Jeruvy: but it's not that greedy on windows..
[23:11] <Jeruvy> progre55: sure it is :)
[23:11] <protojay> phoenixz, getting linux apps like apache setup is usually complex, the firewalling settings, where to stop
[23:11] <progre55> Jeruvy: well, I hope it is =)
[23:11] <klappi> protojay: i wanted a free compiler back in the old days ^^
[23:11] <ardchoille> schui_: any chance of getting a newer version of that app?
[23:11] <progre55> Jeruvy: thanks anyways =)
[23:11] <Jeruvy> progre55: flash is 100% cpu intensive, it doesn't use any gpu
[23:12] <protojay> phoenixz, lots of parts of linux were obviously not designed with a gui interface in mind and was tagged on later
[23:12] <morphix> apache setup is idential between windows and linux
[23:12] <morphix> except for external things such as firewall
[23:12] <rakista> protojay, many windows features are command line and hidden deep in the registry though
[23:12] <schui_> ardchoille: no idea, its unreal tournament 2004. i'm pretty sure it's installed correctly
[23:12] <paradigm_> Every once in a while a windows game that I'm emulating messess up X.  How can I kill X so that I can restart it?
[23:12] <protojay> rakista, yeh, but most features you need are nicely available in the interface
[23:12] <ardchoille> schui_: Ah, ok well I know nothing about gaming
[23:12] <schui_> ardchoille: but its from 2004 so yeah old file?
[23:12] <phoenixz> protojay: firewall configuration has a VERY easy tool, best I've ever seen.. eeh.. fwbuilder, if I recall.. apache setup is equal on windows and linux..
[23:12] <progre55> Jeruvy: oh and you might know.. another problem with flash, but that only happens on linux.. I cant type in cyrillic characters into a flash text field.. any fixes for that, please? =)
[23:12] <ardchoille> schui_: yes, quite old as far as software goes
[23:13] <phoenixz> protojay: and building a GUI to manage configuration files is trivial, but it is work.. somebody just has to do it..
[23:13] <Jeruvy> progre55: which plugin are you using, official, beta or non-official (ubuntu distro)?
[23:13] <schui_> ardchoille: what exactly did that command you gave me do?
[23:13] <klappi> paradigm_: stop <yourdisplayserver> and then start <yourdisplayserver>
[23:13] <reynaldo_> Hello everybody.. I wonder if I can get some help setting up my laptop to accept wireless N from the Wireless N card.. at the moment it automatically downgrades all signals to G
[23:13] <ardchoille> schui_: apt-cache search -n blah  <-- searches for blah in the package cache and filters by name
[23:14] <progre55> Jeruvy: do you mean distro by "plugin"? ubuntu 9.10 (2.6.31-17)
[23:14] <ardchoille> schui_: best way to find an app
[23:14] <protojay> phoenixz, i will admit, things have improved alot
[23:14] <protojay> phoenixz, but still much work to do, before linux is mainstream ready on the desktop
[23:14] <Jeruvy> progre55: flash plugin actually.  Which one did you install?
[23:14] <Um_cara_qualquer> does anyone knows how run original films in ubuntu?
[23:14] <protojay> phoenixz, and you cant expect drivers vendors or software vendors to port until that happens
[23:14] <klappi> protojay; i dont need that to happen
[23:14] <progre55> Jeruvy: oh, no idea :) how can I find out?
[23:14] <phoenixz> protojay: they have yeah.. But I think its not going to happen until drivers get fixed.. somehow..
[23:15] <tiberio> ciao a tutti
[23:15] <phoenixz> protojay: again, you may want to give a look at KDE4.4.. I'll put that up to any windows anyday..
[23:15] <schui_> ardchoille: well the error im getting is saying i dont have libstdc++.so.5
[23:15] <ardchoille> schui_: yes, that would be the libstdc++5 package I believe
[23:15] <Jeruvy> progre55: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
[23:16] <protojay> phoenixz, i dont think the drivers are a main problem for 90% of people, its the software situation, we need better emulation and easier, like wine but better
[23:16] <ardchoille> schui_: and that isn't in the 9.1 repos
[23:16] <phoenixz> !it | tiberio:
[23:16] <tiberio> ciao
[23:16] <schui_> ardchoille: darn... any ideas?
[23:16] <klappi> cu
[23:18] <tiberio> xdcc send list
[23:18] <ardchoille> schui_: a good idea would be to post your question on ubuntu forums
[23:18] <ardchoille> !forums
[23:18] <LjL> tiberio: questo non è un canale di filesharing. #ubuntu-it per supporto Ubuntu in italiano, qui inglese.
[23:18] <phoenixz> protojay: true, wine should become more transparent.. should be invisible at all actually.. but then again, we also don't want people to run windows programs where there are perfectly fine (and many times even better) linux apps available..
[23:18] <ardchoille> schui_:  http://ubuntuforums.org/
[23:18] <protojay> phoenixz, the linux apps are often not as good
[23:18] <protojay> phoenixz, exceptions such as firefox exist
[23:18] <phoenixz> protojay: firefox is not a linux app.. works pretty much equal on windows and linux.. and yeah, there are many apps that function better if you ask me..
[23:18] <ardchoille> protojay , phoenixz perhaps this converstion would be better in #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[23:18] <morphix> and free :P
[23:18] <trevor> i have a dell 20inch monitor and ubuntu wont recognize the resolution...anyone know how i can fix this?
[23:18] <phoenixz> protojay: okay, MS office vs open office.. well, they both suck..
[23:19] <phoenixz> ardchoille: sorry, yeah, being totally off-topic here :)
[23:19] <phoenixz> Just had to rant a little
[23:19] <protojay> yeh sorry ardchoille
[23:19] <ardchoille> no worries
[23:19] <phoenixz> driver frustrations, which actually are related to ubuntu...
[23:19] <Awesome3000> trevor  set the resolution manually in xorg.conf
[23:19] <phoenixz> ardchoille: you would not happen to know if there are intel driver updates somewhere?
[23:19] <schui_> ardchoille: thanks
[23:19] <ardchoille> schui_: yw :)
[23:19] <trevor> how might i do that Awesome3000
[23:19] <reynaldo_> Hello everybody.. I wonder if I can get some help setting up my laptop to accept wireless N from the Wireless N card.. at the moment it automatically downgrades all signals to G

[23:25] <progre55_> Jeruvy: nope, no use. still cant type..
[23:26] <ardchoille> schui_: did you post this question on the forums? maybe someone there knows a work around
[23:26] <schui_> ardchoille: i will now heh

[23:27] <Steveturner> are there any alternatives to using pulseaudio and esound?
[23:27] <alteregoa> what is vboxsf?
[23:27] <ompaul> Steveturner, try alsa
[23:28] <Steveturner> alsa what
[23:28] <Steveturner> just alsa?
[23:28] <alteregoa> try oss or jack
[23:28] <ompaul> yes
[23:28] <Steveturner> ok, ty
[23:28] <ompaul> stay away from jack it needs an RT kernel
[23:28] <primary> LjL: Great it worked thanks a lot!
[23:28] <Dark_Helmut> I need to force my VPN (PPTP) connection to use an interface other than the default of ppp0 (so ppp1, for example). How can I do that?

[23:29] <sirninja> I'm using ubuntu 9.10 and currently when I move the system volume to a little lower than half, sound cuts out completely. I've found out this is because the system controls the pulse audio volume, and when the volume is lower than that, pulseaudio mutes the master track in alsamixer, how do I make it so the system sound directly controls the master track?
[23:29] <Steveturner> my sound is just wiers
[23:29] <Steveturner> wierd*
[23:29] <Steveturner> sometimes Java sound works, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes Flash sound works, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes music files work, sometimes they don't
[23:30] <Jeruvy> progre55: not sure, check this link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/322/322050.html
[23:30] <Steveturner> and they all work... whenever they want to, some work when some don't, others work when others don't
[23:30] <ompaul> Steveturner, some applications and sound methods block others - alsa is fairly stable for multiple sounds at once
[23:30] <Steveturner> Ok :-)
[23:30] <Steveturner> so I.... sudo apt-get install alsa?
[23:30] <alteregoa> today cpu are so damn fast a RT kernel doesnt really impact the performance
[23:30] <Steveturner> after removing all others?

[23:34] <alazyworkaholic> Networking Question - I want to be able to access any folder on my computer remotely, get & put files, & still require a password. I've found I can share through properties - share, but then I have to select beforehand which folders I'll share. I've been using ssh in "connect to server" but that's terribly slow when transferring large files; I don't need that kind of security, just a password that gives me unencrypted

[23:36] <alteregoa> alazyworkaholic: use samba shares
[23:37] <alteregoa> alazyworkaholic: or do you want to have access to your Data over WAN?
[23:37] <alazyworkaholic> alteregoa: I did a little, but I need to have preconfigured which folders to share. I was hoping for something builtin that I didn't know about, like ssh but faster. And yes, I would like access to data over WAN.
[23:38] <alteregoa> alazyworkaholic: i use Hamachi, it works more reliable compared to this SSH stuff and other solutions
[23:38] <sirninja> How do set which track in alsa mixer you want to be controlled by the system volume?

[23:40] <nomad111> hey all, im currently running ubuntu with xfce dm and i tried to run gnome-session from within xfce and it worked. the problem is when i killed the gnome-session and went back to xfce all the window borders disappeared. restarting the machine did not help
[23:40] <nomad111> any ideas how to fix this
[23:40] <protojay> nomad111, hahah, you shouldnt have done that
[23:40] <nomad111> hehe i figured
[23:40] <IdleOne> cambazz: autoclean or autoremove
[23:41] <Indy^> ;)
[23:41] <belacqua> Here's the last link I used to upgrade pulseaudio to the dev version:    http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/upgrade-pulseaudio-to-version-0921-in.html
[23:41] <alteregoa> alazyworkaholic: configuring hamachi is very straightforward, and easy even to beginners, i still wonder why the OS comunity didnt even take a look to this very good solution
[23:41] <sirninja> belacqua: will that let me pick which track I want to be the main volume track?

[23:44] <alteregoa> gproftpd or something maybe
[23:44] <belacqua> sirninja: the upgraded pulseaudio lets me pick the tracks correctly through sound preferences.  I don't think the earlier version did.

[23:53] <apoch2020> I'm trying to use a DWL-520 v.E1 Wireless card in ubuntu Karmic 2.6.31-17-generic  does anyone know if it is possible either in NDIS Wrapper or otherwise?
[23:53] <jrib> ckhikuzad: well how did you change it before?  I assume you would change it back the same way (probably gconf)
[23:53] <Um_cara_qualquer> Falha = fail
[23:53] <kinja-sheep> Um_cara_qualquer: I'm using Google Translate. :)

[23:53] <Rorty> hello, I´ve been trying to burn a video-dvd with brasero... but the video-quality is really bad, while the original .avi file is great... any ideas?
[23:53] <ardchoille> kinja-sheep: http://pastebin.com/m1d8bc590
[23:53] <ckhikuzad> jrib, i changed it when i logged out, and selected it on my login screen, i accidentally clicked set as default
[23:54] <apoch2020> So far I can see the device but I get an error about assigning some type of address to the device

[23:54] <jrib> ckhikuzad: so get rid of auto-login
[23:54] <ckhikuzad> jrib, how
[23:54] <kinja-sheep> Um_cara_qualquer: Have you restarted VLC since you ran the script?
[23:54] <jrib> ckhikuzad: gdmsetup?

[23:54] <Um_cara_qualquer> vlc yes... the ubuntu not
[23:55] <apoch2020> morphix much appreciated
[23:55] <ckhikuzad> thanks jrib, i got it now. i just need to log out
[23:55] <kinja-sheep> Um_cara_qualquer: Is libdvdcss2 installed?
[23:55] <Yoman> How do I see what wireless drivers I am currently using for a specific device? Thanks
[23:55] <ckhikuzad> ctrl+alt+backspace doesnt bring me back to the login
[23:56] <ckhikuzad> jrib
[23:56] <blakkheim> Yoman: lsmod
[23:56] <jrib> ckhikuzad: alt-shift-q
[23:56] <kinja-sheep> Um_cara_qualquer: I don't think it was. Do "sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2" and run "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh" again.
[23:56] <sirninja> belacqua: how did you configure that after you upgraded pulseaudio?
[23:56] <Um_cara_qualquer> kinja-sheep, it was, but i unninstalled it to reinstall it again, but i couldn't find it anymore
[23:57] <Yoman> blakkheim, ok thanks =) does that show all the drivers I have for all my hardware?
[23:57] <ckhikuzad> thanks so much jrib. thats one window manager i'm aptitude removing. (its a great WM from what i hear, but i dont like it
[23:57] <blakkheim> Yoman: lsmod shows all modules currently loaded
[23:57] <Bashar> where does apport logs the crash report ?
[23:57] <jrib> ckhikuzad: meh, I think it's great, but you need to be willing to feel helpless for a little bit
[23:58] <Yoman> blakkheim, sounds like I've got some reading to do.. :)
[23:58] <apoch2020> wow this feels advanced
[23:58] <kinja-sheep> Um_cara_qualquer: http://packages.medibuntu.org/karmic/libdvdcss2.html
[23:58] <apoch2020> I've never liked d link
[23:59] <Elite_> Hi guys anyone know if i install this card Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1600 along with v4l-dvb-725c07a70453.tar.gz after ubuntu 9.04 is installed will work ?
[23:59] <morphix> apoch2020, me either.
[23:59] <apoch2020> the only reason I wished to utilize the card in linux was to see if it could be used in airomon and such....
[23:59] <morphix> probably not
[23:59] <apoch2020> I already have a decend usb  cracking adapter though
[23:59] <ckhikuzad> jrib, i know that, but not knowing ANYTHING about the WM before logging into it is very bad. i'm giving it another chance, but im learning all the commands first
[23:59] <jrib> ckhikuzad: sounds good
[23:59] <Um_cara_qualquer> it doesn't work :(
