[08:47] <sh0rty> hey guys, I am getting this error : Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu/dists/natty/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'restricted/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
[08:47] <sh0rty> any idea on how to rectify this. Thank you.:)
[08:47] <cinnabar12> I have my wificard working now (detecting other networks, rt3090bc4) but I can't connect to my wifi network?
[08:47] <ikonia> sh0rty: remove the ppa - it looks like it's dead
[08:48] <bazhang> cinnabar12, dont repeat so quickly
[08:48] <sh0rty> ikonia : thanks will try that.:)
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: i dont have torrent media sharing apps installed, cant find what this higher ports refer to..
[08:48] <soulis77-SE> ikonia: thanks now it worked.
[08:49] <ikonia> soulis77-SE: looks like you're just running a bit shy of ram
[08:49] <hroi> bazhang:  I now changed the server to main, and clicked reload as instructed
[08:49] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: what security type wifi on that rt card?
[08:49] <hroi> bazhang:  I now get... Failed to fetch http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release.gpg  Something wicked happened resolving 'linux.dropbox.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname)
[08:49] <bazhang> hroi, thats iceland right? try someplace closer
[08:50] <alphafox> hello
[08:50] <hroi> bazhang:  yes, I changed from Iceland to the main server... wherever that is... its called main
[08:50] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: You mean the wifi network? It's WPA Personal.
[08:50] <soulis77-SE> ikonia: Ok, good to know. I open the files on client instead. About the fail2ban I have installed it. Can I somehow ban Ip numbers now.. since I know the ip of the ppl that tried hacking my system.
[08:50] <os_> why to costumize my firefox opion? newbie
[08:50] <bazhang> hroi, looks like an internet connection issue not a server issue
[08:50] <hroi> bazhang: in the synaptic pack. man
[08:50] <ikonia> hroi: remove that dead repo
[08:50] <alphafox> can someone help me, i have a fakeraid problem
[08:50] <Gh0Sty2k> can someone please tell me why when i login to my pc it keeps saying unlock login keyring and wont go away? how can i stop this?
[08:50] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: is that a linksys card?
[08:50] <alphafox> im a newbie though
[08:50] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: nope, RaLink, the splendidness of it all...
[08:50] <ikonia> soulis77-SE: well, either let tham attack and it will get banned or manually put the ip's into the iptables firewall as that's all fail2ban uses
[08:51] <bazhang> hroi, lets see your sources.list please in paste.ubuntu.com
[08:51] <ikonia> alphafox: fakeraid is a terrible technology in linux
[08:51] <alphafox> oh okay
[08:51] <ikonia> alphafox: I advise you to try not to use it
[08:51] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: my rtl card is a linksys, i had to set on WEP security on natty
[08:51] <alphafox> hmmzzz but i already installed it on my pc
[08:51] <alphafox> and everything works fine
[08:51] <soulis77-SE> ikonia: Thanks a lot. I'll google the firewall.
[08:51] <ikonia> alphafox: I advise you to re-do it without
[08:51] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: wpa personal disconnected me on natty
[08:52] <ikonia> alphafox: clearly it doesn't work fine as you're asking for help with a fakeraid problem
[08:52] <alphafox> well im not able to create a new partition
[08:52] <Gh0Sty2k> can someone please tell me why when i login to my pc it keeps saying unlock login keyring and wont go away? how can i stop this?
[08:52] <ikonia> alphafox: ok - so that's a problem
[08:52] <ikonia> alphafox: not working fine
[08:52] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: no I think this is a proper RaLink card and unfortunately I can't change my security type, I know how to I just can't since the network isn't mine
[08:52] <Gh0Sty2k> also how can i access \\server\share as there is no addressbar like in windows
[08:52] <ikonia> alphafox: I again echo what I've said "it's a terrible technology in linux, I advise you not to use it"
[08:52] <alphafox> well i have 2 partitions a swap and a regular partition where linux is installed on
[08:52] <hroi> bazhang:  how do I list my sources?
[08:53] <hroi> ikonia:  I want to remove this useless repo.
[08:53] <hroi> ikonia: but where?
[08:53] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: i think this might be a bug on natty+wpa security types, but not be abled to fixed it myself
[08:53] <ikonia> hroi: either /etc/apt/sources.list or a file in /etc/apt/souces.d
[08:53] <alphafox> and i want to create a other one using gparted, but it can create the partition, i only not able to format it
[08:53] <bazhang> cat /etc/apt/sources.list   -----> copy to paste.ubuntu.com hroi
[08:53] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: do you think I should downgrade to maverick for now and seeif that makes a difference?
[08:54] <szal> ikonia: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[08:54] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: you could try the livecd maverick to test out yes
[08:54] <ikonia> szal: thank you
[08:54] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: well I can't since to get my card working I have to reboot but I'll certainly do a wubi install
[08:54] <nicofs> Hello! Can someone help me diagnose why my mobile broadband connection is not working? I have reception, credit and the right access point - yet all I get is "Disconnected".
[08:55] <hroi> ikonia: bazhang: http://pastebin.com/dZmL8B2B
[08:55] <bobweaver> nicofs, paste bin lspci -nn && rfkill list all && lsmod
[08:55] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: you could also try this room if any known bugs on natty and wpa (rtl cards)
[08:56] <bazhang> hroi, and now paste.ubuntu.com the output of sudo apt-get update
[08:56] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: ok I'll install maverick and report back in about half an hour or so
[08:56] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: thanks anyway
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: also check syslog (logs) to find any wifi problems
[08:57] <nicofs> bobweaver, the device is usb - shall i use lsusb instead?
[08:57] <bobweaver> nicofs, Yes
[08:58] <bobweaver> nicofs, thanks
[08:58] <dr-lee> hi
[08:58] <andrewh192> hey, was wondering if anyone could tell me where to go for questions about knobbix
[08:58] <andrewh192> or however u spell it
[08:58] <ikonia> andrewh192: look on it's website
[08:58] <andrewh192> knoppix
[08:58] <bazhang> #knoppix andrewh192
[08:59] <andrewh192> kewl
[08:59] <Anubis> hi
[08:59] <hroi> bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/645292/
[08:59] <nicofs> bobweaver, http://paste.ubuntu.com/645293/
[09:00] <iceroot> what is the ubuntu-prefered way for virtualisation? kvm or xen? or are both official supported?
[09:00] <hroi> bazhang:  maybe its just this dropbox repo...?  anyway i just wanted to upgrade from 10 to 11
[09:01] <ikonia> iceroot: xen seems pretty dead these days on any linux
[09:01] <bazhang> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release.gpg   <-- thats the problem hroi
[09:01] <bobweaver> nicofs, do you have two wireless cards?
[09:01] <iceroot> ikonia: so i guess i should use kvm
[09:01] <ikonia> iceroot: seems to be the way development is going
[09:02] <iceroot> ikonia: any alternatives? (not vmware, vbox)
[09:02] <ikonia> iceroot: kvm is very very good
[09:03] <bobweaver> nicofs, also are you using wpa/wpa2? you want only wpa or wpa2
[09:04] <nicofs> bobweaver, WLAN, LAN and mobile broadband - and as for wpa/wpa2: i don't know about that for mobile broadband...
[09:04] <iceroot> ikonia: a great as it seems kvm is using full-virtualization. need something fast for io-devices
[09:04] <hroi> bazhang:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/645294/
[09:04] <dr-lee> c u
[09:04] <hroi> bazhang:  I ran it again... this time with the aptitute gui closed... so it could get a lock
[09:04] <hroi> bazhang:  I get more than one fail to get...
[09:05] <hroi> bazhang:  can I do without maverick?
[09:05] <bazhang> hroi, some of the google and dropbox ones too?
[09:05] <bobweaver> nicofs, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1436954&page=2
[09:05] <hroi> bazhang:  yeah   google earth and maverick dropbox
[09:05] <hroi> bazhang:  those are the only ones.
[09:06] <hroi> bazhang:  can I disable all of these?
[09:06] <hroi> bazhang: so I can get on with updating my ubuntu from 10 to 11
[09:07] <graalgonstruckt> How would I go about repartioning my harddrive to delete windows 7 from ubuntu thats installed, and adding the remaining 500gb freed up space to ubuntu?
[09:07] <rubyy> Pici u there
[09:07] <rubyy> hi, what program is BEST and featurefull like code , normal, preview    like frontpage features, auto script completion and tell you where the script it wrong or missing. highlight.   for html, php, etc  . ?
[09:07] <graalgonstruckt> without interrupting my files on ubuntu of course*
[09:07] <nicofs> bobweaver, sorry, but how does that help?
[09:07] <bobweaver> nicofs, I do not know that much about moblie broadband alot about realtek and broadcom
[09:08] <hroi> bazhang:  ok now, my synaptic pack man behaves and does the reload without problem
[09:08] <nash> ping
[09:08] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: u could try gparted
[09:08] <graalgonstruckt> lotuspsychje, ill search that brb.
[09:09] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: or backup your active ubuntu and reformat your hole drive
[09:09] <graalgonstruckt> lotuspsychje, how would I do that? Would it keep my installed apps, files, etc?
[09:10] <ugly_duck> anyone played 0ad?
[09:10] <nicofs> Can someone help me diagnose why my mobile broadband connection is not working? I have reception, credit and the right access point - yet all I get is "Disconnected".
[09:10] <hroi> bazhang:  anyway... my update manager is now continuing without problem in setting software channels.
[09:10] <hroi> bazhang: probably this is fixed... beats me how though >S
[09:11] <bazhang> hroi, good news
[09:12] <bazhang> hroi, those repos will be disabled once the upgrade has gotten going
[09:12] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: there are few ubuntu backup progs that save all your system conf and files
[09:12] <bazhang> hroi, the problem was you had more than one instance of apt running/open
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: like nepomuk, then after backing it up you can do a fresh ubuntu install (500gig drive)
[09:14] <Fudge> ~is it possible to send one stream via rear port and other stuff to front headphones?
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> anyone knows howto see all ubuntu logs in one? (not seperated)
[09:14] <Fudge> im wanting to use totem to play music via stereo and front headdphones to listen to tts from speech-dispatcher
[09:14] <ikonia> lotuspsychje: you can't, they are seperate files, and there for a reason
[09:15] <Senjai> lotuspsychje, download them all, and write a script to concat them together :/
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> ikonia: im trying to colortail -f all new incomming logs
[09:16] <vibhav> hi bazhang
[09:16] <lotuspsychje> senjai: im trying to realtime view new logs in my system
[09:16] <aum> how can i install ubuntu on a flash device is there any good link over that
[09:16] <vibhav> hi lotuspsychje
[09:16] <Senjai> lotuspsychje, like RSS?
[09:16] <ikonia> vibhav: you don't need to say "hi" to everyone, you've been told this before.
[09:17] <Senjai> lol ikonia
[09:17] <lotuspsychje> senjai: try install colortail its cool terminal follow tool
[09:17] <graalgonstruckt> lotuspsychje, will it keep my settings like I have ubuntu classic + the new unity bar modded to my ubuntu 11.04. Will it keep that?
[09:17] <Senjai> lotuspsychje, I'm fine, thanks
[09:17] <iceroot> is ubuntu doing anything if installed on "special" hardware? like ssd, notebook, vbox and so on which will NOT be changed if i use the hdd on another system? (e.g. for ext4, or if the first system has 8gb ram and the second only 1gb) or is ANYTHING dynamicly at boot?
[09:17] <`ph8> does anyone know how i can refresh my /dev/disk/by-uuid? i've just done some formatting and want to setup fstab by UUID, but i don't want to reboot
[09:17] <lotuspsychje> senjai: colortail does already realtime follow seperate logs (like rss) yes
[09:18] <Senjai> iceroot, Ubuntu comes packaged with default software and drivers. Some of which may not be compatabile with other devices.
[09:18] <HackerII> aum   I've used unetbootin  and it worked fine
[09:18] <Senjai> lotuspsychje, I'm just not interested.
[09:18] <iceroot> `ph8: can you remove the traling ` please? also you can use sudo blkid to get the uuid
[09:18] <Senjai> HackerII, your name really?
[09:18] <llutz> `ph8: sudo blkid -g && sudo blkid
[09:18] <ikonia> iceroot: unless there is a specific device in that system that is not in the other it should at least boot allowing you to make minor changes to tweak it
[09:18] <HackerII> aum  http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[09:19] <gaurav_natty> how i make my ubuntu machine in wifi hotspot
[09:19] <ikonia> Senjai: it's a nickname, let it go
[09:19] <`ph8> thanks llee
[09:19] <iceroot> ikonia: but the installer is setting special things in configs if there is a "special" hardware?
[09:19] <`ph8> * llutz
[09:19] <ikonia> iceroot: shouldn't do
[09:19] <iceroot> ikonia: e.g. ext4 optimazing when using a ssd
[09:19] <ikonia> iceroot: the installer is very generic
[09:19] <brainwave92> guys is there another channel for ubuntu development? The ubuntu-beginners-dev is too silent and very few members, i am not gttng desired help
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt:it should yes
[09:19] <`ph8> ah i think the problem is, sdc and sdd used to be in a RAID configuration, so blkid shows them with the same UUID
[09:20] <`ph8> strange!
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: thats what backup progs do
[09:20] <ikonia> brainwave92: pick a bug on launcpad.net and try to fix it
[09:20] <nicofs> Is there a channel that specializes in mobile internet related problems? or an expert around?
[09:20] <zimm3r> Ok I recently plugged my ipod into my computer to charge while running ubuntu and ubuntu mounted it and stuff but then when I go boot back into windows and launch iTunes iTunes can no longer read it, why is it soomething with ubuntu mounting it
[09:20] <ikonia> zimm3r: ubuntu won't change it
[09:20] <arunkumar413> brainwave92: try #launchpad
[09:20] <hwq001> rubyy: I use Geany +Firefox+firebug for web developing
[09:20] <brainwave92> ikonia, i picked a bug, a brasero unable to eject bug, and now i want to get the code, but i am not getting where to get the exact package name.
[09:20] <brainwave92> arunkumar413, thanks
[09:21] <HackerII> nn
[09:21] <zimm3r> ikonia: even though it mounted it
[09:21] <ikonia> brainwave92: the package name should be listed inthe bug
[09:21] <ikonia> zimm3r: correct
[09:21] <graalgonstruckt> lotuspsychje, Nepomuk does not support Ubuntu 11.04 natty.
[09:21] <zimm3r> ok then
[09:21] <`ph8> hmm
[09:21] <`ph8> /dev/sdc1: UUID="d7bb3fce-abbf-ae00-58a3-8c2c8abcba9d" TYPE="linux_raid_member"
[09:21] <`ph8> /dev/sdd1: UUID="d7bb3fce-abbf-ae00-58a3-8c2c8abcba9d" TYPE="linux_raid_member"
[09:22] <`ph8> how can i stop these disks being raid members? gparted says they're formatted to NTFS
[09:23] <gaurav_natty> how i make my machine to wifi hotspot
[09:23] <iceroot> `ph8: remove the ` please, its hard to write with you on qwertz
[09:24] <brainwave92> ikonia, the bug i chose has been filed in ubuntu lucid lynx but i'm using natty where the problem is the same. Can i still work on the bug?
[09:24] <llutz> gaurav_natty: look for "hostapd", make sure to have a supported wifi-device, google abot ip-forwarding/masquerading, setup, done :)
[09:24] <ilangeeran> i have to type the command sudo wvdial netconnect,everytime i connect to the internet through my wireless modem.i want it connected,when i insert the modem without typing that command.help me.
[09:24] <ikonia> brainwave92: sure, fix it in natty and back port the fix to lucid
[09:25] <angheloko> hi all... i just noticed that my external HD's partition type says HPFS/NTFS, but the type is Ext3? What does this mean?
[09:25] <gaurav_natty> ikonia, how i setup my ubuntu machine to wifi hotspot
[09:25] <ikonia> gaurav_natty: why are you asking me ?
[09:26] <ilangeeran> i have to type the command sudo wvdial netconnect,everytime i connect to the internet through my wireless modem.i want it connected,when i insert the modem without typing that command.help me.
[09:26] <angheloko> !ext3
[09:27] <angheloko> how can the partition type be different from the type? @_@
[09:28] <graalgonstruckt> lotuspsychje, Nepomuk does not support Ubuntu 11.04 natty.
[09:32] <llutz> angheloko: partition id has nothing to do with the filesystem, its just an id
[09:33] <angheloko> llutz, it means that my external HD is ext3 then? but the partition ID is just HPFS/NTFS?
[09:33] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: http://superuser.com/questions/163318/how-to-remove-windows-from-a-windows-ubuntu-machine
[09:34] <lotuspsychje> graalgonstruckt: http://askubuntu.com/questions/784/how-to-i-remove-windows-but-keep-ubuntu
[09:35] <llutz> angheloko: partition id has nothing to do with the filesystem. your drive has partition-id 0x07 but ext3 as a filesystem. nothing to worry about, you can change it into partition-id 0x83 using cfdisk
[09:35] <angheloko> llutz, thanks for clarifying :)
[09:38] <aum> thank you Hacker !!
[09:41] <Flynsarmy> is there a command line tool I can use to show current bandwidth in and out and what process is using it?
[09:41] <llutz> Flynsarmy: ntop
[09:42] <llutz> or iftop
[09:43] <llutz> Flynsarmy: " iftop" it was, ntop is something different. sorry

[09:48] <peri> Hi there. I hope this is the right place for this query. I installed empathy but it does not show up under the applications -> internet menu.  I can launch empathy by Alt+F2 <<empathy>> but would like a launcher under Applications. I haev rebooted system. I'm using 11.04  but under the old desktop. Most grateful for any suggestions
[09:49] <eloween> quelqu'un connais un chan pour symfony ?
[09:49] <brainwave92> peri, you can manually add empathy using alacarte
[09:50] <peri> Thanks brainwave. I am still learning Ubunutu. What is alacarte?
[09:50] <brainwave92> peri, go to a terminal, type in 'alacarte'
[09:50] <brainwave92> you'll know when you see what comes up
[09:50] <peri> ok. now I understand.
[09:50] <brainwave92> tell me when you are done
[09:51] <brainwave92> peri, yes so now go to 'internet' and if empathy isnt there, use add
[09:51] <Flynsarmy> llutz: I'm doing an iftop wlan0 and downloading a file in chrome. Chromes reporting a solid 675kb/s however iftop's saying it's only going at 300kb/s...the values i just provided are averages of over a couple of mins...any idea where the discrepency would be coming form?
[09:51] <airtonix> whats the desktop agnostic command to launch the gui filebrowser ?
[09:51] <Guest58656> Brainwave.... do I have a nick yet?
[09:51] <jrib> airtonix: gvfs-open ~
[09:51] <airtonix> cheers
[09:52] <llutz> Flynsarmy: no, sry
[09:52] <brainwave92> Guest58656, no. if you had a nick , it would show up, like mine shows brainwave. Type in '/nick igotanick' without the quotes
[09:52] <peri> OK. Yup. Thanks Brainwave. Just ot prove what a moron I am, I meant to type epiphany!
[09:52] <peri> and Epiphany is not there.
[09:52] <pinko2> .
[09:53] <brainwave92> peri, lol! its ok...i'm a bigger moron as many here will testify.....:) so you got epiphany?
[09:53] <peri> nope. only epiphany web book marks
[09:54] <hey> peri then use the same alacarte to add epiphany if you have epiphany, else if its not installed, install with package manager
[09:55] <peri> Ok. Hey, thanks. I have it installed and it runs, via ALT+F2. Do I use the new item button? I am hesitant to fiddle too much with this because I am very good at mucking things up.
[09:56] <peri> BTW: I installed with the software centre rather than synaptic
[09:57] <crackerjackz> !aptfix
[09:58] <peri> crackerjackz - was that !aptfix suggestion for me?
[09:58] <brainwave92> peri, i doubt
[09:58] <crackerjackz> peri, negative it was for me, i couldn't remember the command
[09:58] <crackerjackz> peri, did you need help with something?
[09:59] <brainwave92> peri, crackerjackz instructed the bot to help him out :)
[09:59] <rubyy> how to correct table errors or hardisk
[10:00] <brainwave92> peri, do you have the epiphany tab in your internet menu/
[10:00] <peri> Brainwave92 - no I do not.
[10:01] <crackerjackz> is there a GUI for starting and stopping services?
[10:01] <Juozas> !fsck | rubyy
[10:01] <peri> Crackerjackz - thanks for question.

[10:05] <brainwave92> look for tabs here and there
[10:05] <crackerjackz> brainwave92, its not installed and i can't find the package name.. do you know the package name?
[10:06] <brainwave92> i dont know. It should come by default. Else use synaptic to search for system monitor
[10:07] <crackerjackz> brainwave92, i found it, its under system / administration
[10:08] <jacky_bro> i want to know openvpn server
[10:09] <crackerjackz> i'm trying to remove the lamp stack but its not letting me do i need to stop the services first? and if so then why wont it let me stop them it says they are uninteruptable

[10:21] <jrib> crackerjackz: "Package php5-mysql is not installed, so not removed"
[10:22] <crackerjackz> jrib, what about apache2
[10:22] <jrib> crackerjackz: "Package apache2 is not installed, so not removed"
[10:22] <dddbmt> Jouzas, that didn't make a difference.
[10:22] <crackerjackz> jrib, but system monitor says its running...
[10:22] <jrib> crackerjackz: so?
[10:23] <jrib> crackerjackz: you can run something and then delete it... it will stay in memory until no process is using it
[10:23] <crackerjackz> jrib, whys it saying that? and i want to completely remove the lamp stack and reinstall it... i broke it so bad i think i'm better off just reinstlaling it and starting from scratch
[10:23] <crackerjackz> ahhh i see
[10:23] <jrib> crackerjackz: how did you break it?  Why don't you remove phpmyadmin?
[10:23] <Juozas> crackerjackz, try dpkg -r {packa} if installed other way then apt, or dpkg -l | grep {package} to find some
[10:23] <sandro_> ciao
[10:23] <sandro_> !list
[10:23] <crackerjackz> jrib, ive tried.. hang on i'll paste you the output
[10:24] <jrib> crackerjackz: I'm more interested in my first question :D
[10:25] <crackerjackz> jrib, even though i know for a fact i didn't forget the root mysql password... it said i had the wrong password when trying to install phpmyadmin. so i used this guide to reset the mysql root password.. everything went downhill from there some people IRC told me to type some commands to fix it and everything just stopped working
[10:25] <sandro_> !list
[10:25] <jrib> crackerjackz: you need to give more details
[10:26]  * Juozas slaps sandro_ with a big red brick
[10:26] <jrib> ow
[10:27] <Steve92> THANK YOU DISTROJOCKEY!
[10:27] <crackerjackz> jrib, i used this guide to reset the password http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/recover-mysql-root-password.html... shortly after i tried installing phpmyadmin and it said that it couldnt setup the database for phpmyadmin while mysql was running with --skip-grant-tables
[10:27] <DistroJockey> Steve92: Most welcome :)
[10:27] <jrib> crackerjackz: that means you didn't do step 5 (Exit and restart the MySQL server.) in your link
[10:27] <bsmith093> can anybody think of any reason why gpodder is really slow in downloading , but works fine in a vm? and yes i purged the config files, and then i manually deleted the database files and reinstalled, no effect, >10kbps per file, but its fine if i just use firefox to download the podcasts
[10:28] <crackerjackz> jrib, well how can i just completely remove the lamp stack so that i can start over?
[10:28] <jrib> crackerjackz: what happens when you attempt to remove phpmyadmin now?
[10:28] <jrib> crackerjackz: and you said some people gave you commands that you ran.  What commands?
[10:29] <sandro_> List of Channels
[10:29] <crackerjackz> jrib, i dont remember..
[10:29] <jrib> sandro_: /msg alis help
[10:29] <jrib> crackerjackz: look in your terminal's history
[10:29] <jrib> crackerjackz: or your irc client's
[10:29] <rubyy->  i need to check all hd , tables,  that has differe file systems  , fat, ntfs, ext4. everytime i install kubuntu. its stuck with error on 23% of wipiing swap area. ?
[10:30] <crackerjackz> jrib, i have history disabled on IRC.. but how do i check the history of the commands ran in the terminal?

[10:31] <crackerjackz> jrib, http://pastebin.com/UcWJqCv9 <-- when i try to remove phpmyadmin
[10:32] <han_> ubuntu 11 autodetects external monitor and changes display settings on its own, without my permission. i want to disable this behavior. anyone know how?
[10:32] <DistroJockey> rubyy-: What does the error say?
[10:33] <rubyy-> check the log files
[10:33] <jrib> crackerjackz: fuser -v /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
[10:33] <crackerjackz> jrib,                      USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND

[10:34] <crackerjackz> blahh that was a messy paste
[10:34] <rubyy-> DistroJockey to check the log files
[10:34] <jrib> crackerjackz: do you have some apt process open?
[10:34] <DistroJockey> rubyy-: That's pretty vague. Does it say which log file?
[10:34] <crackerjackz> jrib, update manager is open but it's not doing anything atm
[10:35] <rubyy-> DistroJockey yes. var/log something
[10:36] <han_> whenever i plug in/out an external monitor to/from my laptop (which i do often) ubuntu 11 just changes display settings on its own. i want to disable this behavior and let ubuntu do absolutely nothing when a monitor is plugged in/out. anyone know how?
[10:36] <Juozas> crackerjackz, close it before uninstalling anything from command line
[10:36] <DistroJockey> rubyy-:  Did you look at the log for any related messages?
[10:36] <jrib> crackerjackz: no idea what "frontend" is but if you reboot it should go away...
[10:36] <crackerjackz> jrib, okay i'm gonna reboot real quick brb
[10:38] <Phalstaff> What is the general opinion of the Unity interface>
[10:38] <arfbtwn> imho: needs work...
[10:39] <rubyy-> DistroJockey i dont know how to look. using live cd
[10:40] <crackerjackz> k i'm back
[10:40] <Phalstaff> Arfntwn - I guess that is to be expected I really like Gnome better ...
[10:41] <crackerjackz> jrib, when ubuntu was booting it says starting apache.. mysql
[10:41] <crackerjackz> jrib, apache2 is running according to pstree
[10:41] <DistroJockey> rubyy-: If the Live system is the one that is showing the error, you can start nautilus and browse to  /var/log
[10:41] <Dasc> need help >_< updated my ubuntu and I can't login anymore
[10:41] <jrib> crackerjackz: is apache2.2-common installed?
[10:42] <Phalstaff> Will Ubuntu continue to support Gnome?
[10:42] <Dasc> anyone? :X
[10:43] <asdjaputra> Dasc: anything you do after updating?
[10:43] <crackerjackz> jrib, if tasksel install lamp-server installs that service then yes i suppose it is installed
[10:43] <jrib> crackerjackz: that's where apache is
[10:44] <Dasc> asdjaputra - nope updated it and it asked me to restart
[10:44] <asdjaputra> Dasc: and?
[10:44] <crackerjackz> so i should apt-get remove apache2.2-common then?
[10:44] <Dasc> asdjaputra: it gets to the login screen > I put in my password > it goes black and kicks me back to the login screen again
[10:45] <Dasc> asdjaputra: if I put in the wrong password it says authentication failed
[10:45] <Dasc> asdjaputra: I've tried using CLI to add a new user called tester, which it logs then just halts with the default background
[10:46] <crackerjackz> i'm about to just reinstall ubuntu rather than mess with all of this
[10:46] <Ramosa> tried to install ubuntu server through virtualbox on an x64 cpu, and got the message: "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU." It's a Core 2 Duo P7350, it's 64 bit for sure, but it's not i686 right?
[10:46] <crackerjackz> why isn't there a detailed guide for removing lamp?
[10:47] <asdjaputra> crackerjackz: LAMP bundle?
[10:47] <Ramosa> ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=36750
[10:47] <crackerjackz> asdjaputra, i dunno i ran sudo apt-get install tasksell then sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[10:48] <asdjaputra> crackerjackz: sudo tasksel, then pick Web server, SQL, etc
[10:49] <DistroJockey> Dasc: Sounds like your graphics driver module needs to be updated to match the kernel maybe. Especially if you had a manufacturer downloaded driver before the update.
[10:49] <bluegoon> hello guys
[10:49] <bluegoon> I have a huge red "1" up left on my screen
[10:49] <crackerjackz> asdjaputra, none of those are listed
[10:50] <crackerjackz> it says choose software to install... if i select lampserver will it just reinstall it and fix it?
[10:50] <Dasc> DistroJockey: Hmmmm, but I'm able to get on to the login state though, with the mouse and everything
[10:50] <crackerjackz> (even though its not uninstalled yet)
[10:50] <Ramosa> uname -a outputs x86_64, so i dont get why it complains about i686
[10:50] <bluegoon> Er, hey chaps, I have a giant red "1" in the top left of my screen, its in a red box.
[10:50] <DistroJockey> Dasc: Pretty sure the video mode/driver used swaps at login.
[10:51] <asdjaputra> DistroJockey: can it be the gdm?
[10:51] <jrib> crackerjackz: reinstalling or removing and installing will likely not fix anything. How is it broken?
[10:51] <frater_sx> hello everyone
[10:51] <Dasc> DistroJockey: think you can guide me through updating the video driver?  I have an nvidia graphics card 8600GT to be exact
[10:52] <frater_sx> I wish to thank you for the help you provided me some time ago, thanks
[10:52] <Dasc> asdjaputra: you want me to past what comes up when I type in gdm?
[10:52] <asdjaputra> Dasc: or gdm3
[10:52] <DistroJockey> asdjaputra, Dasc: Could be a few things, hard to say at this point.
[10:52] <Dasc> iit has gdm
[10:52] <Dasc> not gdm3
[10:53] <asdjaputra> Dasc: probably wouldn't hurt if you do this anyway
[10:53] <oCean> Ramosa: your cpu has to have virtualization capability to run 64bit guest os
[10:53] <asdjaputra> Dasc: sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm && sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[10:53] <crackerjackz> jrib, i dont know how to explain it i just want to get rid of it.. can you help me get rid of it? i can reinstall it and start fresh in 5 minutes
[10:53] <Dasc> asdjaputra: gdm says warning, failed to acquire org.gnome.displaymanager
[10:53] <jrib> crackerjackz: I told you what to remove
[10:53] <Dasc> asdjaputra: cool 1 sec
[10:53] <crackerjackz> jrib, apache2.2-common right?
[10:53] <Ramosa> oCean, ahh! so 32bit I can run?
[10:53] <jrib> crackerjackz: to remove apache, yes
[10:53] <asdjaputra> Dasc: it'll reinstall gdm and tries to reconfigure it for you
[10:54] <bsmith093> does anyone know what other configs affect connectivity from a custom lucid to a fresh vm install?
[10:54] <oCean> Ramosa: run  egrep '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo  in a terminal to check if your cpu has those capabilities, but 32bit should run anyway
[10:54] <crackerjackz> jrib, i want to completely remove everything tasksell install lamp-server installed
[10:54] <DistroJockey> Dasc: How you update the nvidia driver would vary depending on how you installed it before the update. I think :)
[10:54] <bluegoon> My screen seems fuzzy
[10:54] <Dasc> asdjaputra: updated but didn't do anything much
[10:55] <crackerjackz> jrib, also apt-get remove apache2.2-common returns similar errors as the previous pastebins i showed you
[10:55] <Jonny> I want to get nvidia drivers, but I see 3 options and I don't know which one to chose, also I dn't know what exact card I have
[10:55] <jrib> crackerjackz: pastebin
[10:55] <Dasc> DistroJockey: I remember using synaptic package to install the nvidia thing
[10:55] <bluegoon> What is the aspect ration of a 22" screen usuallY?
[10:55] <Ramosa> oCean, no output, but thanks
[10:55] <jrib> !ot | bluegoon
[10:55] <oCean> Ramosa: no output means, your cpu does not have the capabilities..
[10:55] <bluegoon> jrib, sorry mate
[10:56] <Ramosa> right
[10:56] <crackerjackz> jrib, http://pastebin.com/61smbuqV
[10:56] <DistroJockey> Dasc: In that case it should have updated with the upgrade I would think.
[10:56] <asdjaputra> Dasc: so does it work?
[10:56] <Dasc> asdjaputra: nope didn't work
[10:56] <Jonny> does it matter which nvidia driver i install anyone?
[10:57] <jrib> crackerjackz: remove the apache packages mentioned in the output.  But as I said, this will likely not solve anything for you and is a waste of our time
[10:57] <basw> can somebody help with grub?
[10:57] <Dasc> asdjaputra: in the cli it downloaded some stuff, then just updated it, but didn't help with the login, still kicks me out immediately after I type in the correct password
[10:57] <crackerjackz> jrib, why won't it solve anything? if i remove it then reinstall it.. it'll be default wont it?
[10:57] <jrib> crackerjackz: no
[10:57] <asdjaputra> basw: #grub
[10:58] <basw> k
[10:58] <crackerjackz> jrib, whys that?
[10:58] <jrib> crackerjackz: well it depends on what you didn't which I don't know
[10:58] <DistroJockey> Dasc: At the login screen, does changing the session to failsafe graphics help?
[10:58] <oCean> crackerjackz: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Starting%20over,%20How%20to%20remove%20the%20LAMP%20stack
[10:59] <crackerjackz> oCean, i've read that ... all it says is not to use tasksell to remove packages and then it list the packages that lamp server installs and it also goes on to say that it assumes you have no other programs that require those packages
[10:59] <Dasc> DistroJockey: I tried booting into recovery mode as failsafe graphics, it doesn't seem to load completely.  I get the first screen asking, load safemode this time only? then after that it flickers a bit with another prompt and kicks me back to the cli menu
[10:59] <crackerjackz> and then*
[10:59] <oCean> crackerjackz: so?
[11:00] <crackerjackz> oCean, well when i try to apt-get remove.. on any of those packages it doesnt work (yes i'm root)
[11:00] <jrib> crackerjackz: not any of those, all of them at the same time
[11:00] <crackerjackz> ahhhh
[11:00] <crackerjackz> okay
[11:00] <oCean> crackerjackz: you don't need to be root, you have to execute the command using sudo.
[11:00] <crackerjackz> oCean, i use sudo bash so that i don't have to type sudo a million times
[11:01] <jrib> crackerjackz: do not use sudo bash, use « sudo -i »
[11:01] <oCean> crackerjackz: if you really feel you need that, run sudo -i
[11:01] <crackerjackz> okay i'll make a mental note of that, what is the difference between sudo bash and sudo -i
[11:01] <jrib> crackerjackz: well sudo bash is dumb and sudo -i is not :P
[11:02] <jrib> crackerjackz: (really: sudo -i will do nice things with your environment)
[11:02] <lamps> need 1 volunteer (for 3 minutes) with linux and firefox 5 to make a few screenshots of a firefox add-on. the screenosts will be published on mozilla add-ons page of this addon-on. /q me
[11:03] <tsimpson> lamps: #ubuntu-offtopic is a better place to ask that
[11:03] <lamps> tsimpson: ok thanks
[11:04] <DistroJockey> Dasc: Sorry, I've run out of ideas atm.
[11:04] <Jonny> hey can someone help me decide which nvidia driver to get
[11:05] <Dasc> DistroJockey: have boot into CLI root with network and typed in startx , I get the mouse and just a black screen, can move my mouse around no problems
[11:06] <crackerjackz> jrib, oCean http://pastebin.com/GHZBBeNV
[11:07] <Guest30436> in Natty, is there a command-line way to make ubuntu start in classic mode instead of unity permanently? (My hardware can't handle unity, so I can't do it the graphical way)
[11:08] <bluegoon> jrib, IdleOne said I should ask my question here, after you said I should ask my question there..
[11:08] <jrib> Guest30436: edit ~/.dmrc I suppose
[11:08] <DistroJockey> Dasc: Could even be Compiz related if you had that before the upgrade. Can you check the /var/log/xorg.0.log for errors?
[11:08] <jrib> bluegoon: aspect ratio of a 22" screen is not ubuntu related.  Is it?
[11:09] <IdleOne> jrib: it isn't sorry.
[11:09] <jrib> bluegoon: I suggest ##hardware
[11:09] <pooltable> how to fix this dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. ?
[11:10] <bluegoon> jrib, thanks mate
[11:10] <Dasc> DistroJockey: I have compiz
[11:10] <oCean> crackerjackz: it seems you have removed part of the lamp stack, but not all? Run and pastebin apt-cache policy mysql-server-5.1 phpmyadmin
[11:10] <crackerjackz> pooltable, maybe !aptfix .. let one of the other guys answer you for sure on that one though i'm not positive
[11:10] <crackerjackz> !aptfix
[11:10] <bluegoon> Is the Catalyst Control Center not officially supported by Ubuntu?
[11:11] <DistroJockey> Dasc: What version did you upgrade from?
[11:11] <Dasc> DistroJockey: good question, I just clicked on do updates (the usual security and stuffs)
[11:11] <Dasc> DistroJockey: currently have 10.04
[11:12] <jrib> pooltable: run « sudo dpkg --configure -a » as the error you pasted suggests
[11:12] <elky> bluegoon, i believe it's not even in our repositories.
[11:13] <bluegoon> elky, there a way to run the drive without the CC?
[11:13] <crackerjackz> oCean, http://pastebin.com/4SAsntXP
[11:13] <bluegoon> driver*
[11:14] <DistroJockey> Dasc: hmm. The  /var/log/apt/history.log  will show you what was updated/changed. Maybe you can spot something in there that may be related.
[11:14] <pooltable> crackerjacksz it work thanks
[11:14] <pooltable> and jrib
[11:15] <elky> bluegoon, i have absolutely no idea as to what driver you're trying to run as you've not stated.
[11:15] <crackerjackz> yw
[11:15] <Dasc> DistroJockey: cool thx will do, am going out for food first, need a break from this
[11:15] <DistroJockey> Dasc: You're welcome, enjoy :)
[11:16] <DistroJockey> Dasc: And goodluck when you return.
[11:17] <pooltable> how do i fix this http://paste.ubuntu.com/645345/?
[11:19] <Chillance> ok, can someone please tell me how I can make vncserver load the nvidia drivers for a seesion?
[11:19] <crackerjackz> pooltable, what are you trying to install?
[11:20] <soulis77-SE> If the ufw firewall is enable and the port for ssh isn't 22. Is there some way to access the server?
[11:20] <crackerjackz> pooltable, where did you get that command from...
[11:20] <crackerjackz> show me what you're looking at
[11:21] <asdjaputra> crackerjackz: the computer

[11:22] <Peddy> asdfasdfa, sorry >.> meant to post in -offtopic
[11:22] <wildbat> soulis77-SE: open what ever port you use for ssh in ufw
[11:22] <crackerjackz> pooltable, send me a link to what ever guide it is you're looking at
[11:22] <crackerjackz> asdjaputra, lol
[11:23] <soulis77-SE> wildbat: yeah and when you can't access it with ssh...
[11:23] <soulis77-SE> since the correct port is blocked?
[11:23] <pooltable> crackerjacksz here http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-convert-vmware-image-to-virtualbox-image.html
[11:24] <crackerjackz> pooltable, i see what you did wrong
[11:24] <wildbat> soulis77-SE:  you what you are asking is to break thru the ufw ~ XD ~ sorry no hacking will be supported.
[11:24] <asdjaputra> wildbat: lol
[11:24] <crackerjackz> pooltable, assuming you already installed qemu
[11:25] <crackerjackz> try this...
[11:25] <asdjaputra> soulis77-SE: try #backtrack-linux if you're trying to hack
[11:25] <soulis77-SE> No it's not hacking. I followed the wiki installation steps and when enable. But nowhere that I should check the port before starting
[11:25] <crackerjackz> qemu-img convert debian.vmdk /tmp/debian.bin
[11:25] <pooltable> crackerjacksz qemu is installed
[11:26] <crackerjackz> also
[11:26] <crackerjackz> what are the name of the images you're trying to convert
[11:26] <pooltable> crackerjacksz qemu-img: Could not open 'debian.vmdk': No such file or directory
[11:26] <pooltable> qemu-img: Could not open 'debian.vmdk'
[11:26] <wildbat> soulis77-SE: so you should have access to your ufw-ed machine why can't you set it ?
[11:26] <crackerjackz> pooltable, change debian.vmdk to the correct file name
[11:26] <crackerjackz> change it to the name of the image you're trying to convert
[11:28] <soulis77-SE> wildbat: When i installed the uwf it must have blocket my ssh port (I changed it) and now I can't continue the installation. The server isn't at my location, but is it possible to do it if you are at the server itself?

[11:29] <han_> whenever i plug in/out an external monitor to/from my laptop (which i do often) ubuntu 11 just changes display settings on its own. i want to disable this behavior and let ubuntu do absolutely nothing when a monitor is plugged in/out. anyone know how?
[11:29] <asdjaputra> rubyy: are you somewhat trying to flood?

[11:31] <wolfric> does ubuntu have some way other than rc.d links to start services? i used rcconf and confirmed that all links were now changed to K instead of s howver openssh server still starts when i reboot
[11:31] <wildbat> soulis77-SE: i see you lock yourself out (bring keys when you going out! ) ~ you have to do it from server side then ~ firewall are mean to be 'secure'.
[11:31] <mongy> I have 4gb ram and I want a swap partition of equal size so I can hibernate if needed, what is the exact number in mb that I need to use in the partitioner, as I am a little confused with 4096 not really equalling 4gb
[11:32] <wildbat> mongy: 4Gib = 4096 Mib ~ 4 Gb = 4000 Mb ~ for ram it should be Gib.
[11:33] <soulis77-SE> wildbat: Yeah and all insallation procedures don't help dummies ;)   I guess uwf only listen for port ssh on port 22 on default?`
[11:33] <crackerjackz> pooltable, try something like qemu-img convert "Mac OS X Snow Leopard.vmdk" "/tmp/Mac OS X Snow Leopard.vmdk"
[11:33] <crackerjackz> with the qoutes
[11:34] <crackerjackz> cause it has spaces in the file name
[11:34] <wildbat> soulis77-SE: i don't quite remember ~ may be ~ or it come with empty profile which no port is open
[11:34] <bluegoon> how do see what xorg version I have?
[11:34] <astraljava> soulis77-SE: ufw, by default, will block every port. You won't get in unless you specifically open _some_ ports.
[11:35] <wildbat> bluegoon: Xorg -version
[11:35] <bluegoon> wildbat, thank you
[11:35] <astraljava> soulis77-SE: I'm no firewall expert by any means, but when I install gufw, and enable the firewall, I can't get in at any port.
[11:36] <soulis77-SE> atraljava: ok but can the server provider access the server and change this since even the ufw instruction itself don't say this...
[11:36] <soulis77-SE> Everystep only referes like if you are on the server not ssh from outside
[11:36] <T3ecXpl0rer> heyy guys i need help
[11:36] <astraljava> soulis77-SE: Absolutely. That would be a seriously lousy server component if it didn't allow opening some ports. :)
[11:37] <T3ecXpl0rer> how can i run an application and then go to another command in the single terminal................................
[11:37] <soulis77-SE> yeah, then I just have to pay them for doing it.. Ok but atleast I don't have to reinstall everything :)
[11:37] <asdjaputra> soulis77-SE: hth are you going to ssh from the outside if you didn't open the ports to ssh to the server?
[11:38] <StevenR> T3ecXpl0rer: use screen or look at backgrounding processes
[11:38] <astraljava> soulis77-SE: Yes, that is the standard way of writing instructions. If you're doing something remotely, it is generally expected that you have some experience and understanding how that differs from the basic scenario.
[11:38] <crackerjackz> pooltable, did that work?
[11:38] <pooltable> crackerjacksz how do i know it is working it is just setting there ?
[11:38] <asdjaputra> soulis77-SE: you have to be physically infront of it, to actually make ufw allow ports to ssh into the server
[11:38] <VxQe> T3ecXpl0rer, if you want to run an application in the background, add & to the end of the command.
[11:38] <IdleOne> T3ecXpl0rer: you could try: firefox &
[11:39] <VxQe> You might have to kill the process to close the application though unless it has a gui or something.
[11:39] <soulis77-SE> asdjaputra: I followed the step by step instructions from uwf itself...  I should have config the ports before.. But easy to know now.
[11:39] <crackerjackz> pooltable, tell me what it says
[11:40] <pooltable> crackerjacksz not a thing just blank line
[11:40] <T3ecXpl0rer> but the problem is ...i have to use "sudo"....for example "Etherape"

[11:44] <Hedgehog456> My webcam, when connected, does create video0 (according to dmesg), but then immediately disconnects and releases it.
[11:44] <Inkura> I've tried NetworkManager, brctl and ufw without success.
[11:44] <crackerjackz> Hedgehog456, what kind of webcam do you have?
[11:45] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: Halina Multi-function DCI8IB
[11:45] <pooltable> crackerjacksz yes
[11:46] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: It's not a driver problem, because Ubuntu definitely recognises it according to dmesg, but then it disconnects it

[11:49] <asdjaputra> i didn't help at all, you figure it out yourself :-)
[11:50] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: no, because v4l2 uses video0, and video0 is always disconnected and released
[11:51] <DistroJockey> dobblego: What command are you using for the install?
[11:51] <crackerjackz> Hedgehog456, Halina Multi-function DCI8IB is that what you get when you run lsusb?
[11:51] <dobblego> apt-get install sensors-applet
[11:52] <DistroJockey> dobblego:  try adding a:  -y
[11:52] <dobblego> DistroJockey: sorry, I have a -y in there
[11:52] <pooltable> crackerjacksz pwd?
[11:52] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: No, when I run lsusb I get Avago Technologies, Ltd.

[11:54] <a9_> is there a streamlined way by which i can paste text snippets into vim from links2
[11:54] <a9_> ideally with a timestamp
[11:55] <DistroJockey> dobblego: Well there is  --force-yes  but that can be nasty. Check:  man apt-get  for info and other possible options
[11:55] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/645358/

[11:56] <dobblego> -y is not working because it is presented as a whiptail dialog

[11:58] <omegaphi> hi folks
[11:58] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: Yes, 'No Device Found'. It was through the Cheese help that I found about dmesg.
[11:59] <crackerjackz> Hedgehog456, idk sorry i don't have the knowledge to help you further
[11:59] <crackerjackz> google doesn't seem to know much about your cam
[11:59] <crackerjackz> i've got 3 webcams and only 1 of them works with linux
[11:59] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: does any other webcam automatically dismount when connected?
[12:00] <erry> im trying to upgrade and ive booted from cd to do it
[12:00] <erry> but it says it needs to unmount /dev/sda1 and it cant
[12:01] <DistroJockey> dobblego: How about:  -q
[12:01] <crackerjackz> Hedgehog456, i'm not sure i'm still pretty n00b to be honest sorry i couldn't help
[12:02] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: ah, thanks. i think the problem lies in gspca, thanks!

[12:09] <adelkhan> hoooooooooooooooooooo
[12:09] <DistroJockey> omegaphi: Do you know why the Ubuntu installation is corrupt? I'm thinking your hard drive is dying.
[12:09] <szal> !repeat | omegaphi
[12:09] <[THC]AcidRain> DistroJockey: im thinking the disk was scratched ;)
[12:09] <Hedgehog456> crackerjackz: it seems to be a problem over all linux distros, i'll try in #linux , thanks
[12:10] <crackerjackz> i'm trying to remove lamp but it won't listen :/ http://pastebin.com/wcDf8T7s
[12:10] <omegaphi> DistroJockey , May be, but I have a dual boot system and windows work fine. ATM I just want to save my data from corrputed ubuntu
[12:10] <crackerjackz> Hedgehog456, sorry i coulnd't be of any help. hope ya get it worked out soon!
[12:11] <bblonkowski> HI Anubisss
[12:11] <DistroJockey> omegaphi: Can you copy that root.disk file to another drive?
[12:12] <bblonkowski> I need help with my ubuntu
[12:12] <omegaphi> DistroJockey , yes, from the windows! but that file is absent when I try to access it from the live cds
[12:12] <bblonkowski> i Have some problem with sound
[12:12] <Sidewinder1> omegaphi, Just so you are aware, wubi is not a dual-boot installation.
[12:13] <Pwnna> anyone want to help be find a potential kernel  bug (suspected) that's really really bad (eats up the memory by caching them and not releasing it when program needs to allocate them, at least that's suspected)? Link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/51785/swap-shoots-to-100-after-a-couple-of-hours-of-usage

[12:13] <omegaphi> ok got it!
[12:13] <omegaphi> wubi!=dual boot
[12:13] <Pwnna> i've been trying to solve this for the past 2 weeks. can't find a solution. 5 hours of usage max before swap is getting used
[12:13] <OerHeks> crackerjackz, first stop mysql > sudo service mysql stop
[12:14] <OerHeks> crackerjackz then you could remove it.
[12:14] <DistroJockey> omegaphi: If you can copy the file without IO errors then the disk is probably fine
[12:14] <Sidewinder1> wubi runs from within windows; therefore is not dual boot.
[12:14] <Jed_84> hi everyone
[12:14] <crackerjackz> OerHeks, it won't stop i can't stop the service ive tried
[12:16] <omegaphi> DistroJockey : when I put a live cd and mout the disk where wubi is installed, I get the same wubi folder as windows, but it is missing the  /disks/root.disk file :(
[12:16] <omegaphi> DistroJockey : Now since the file is absent the i/o error is quite obvious, isn't it?
[12:16] <DistroJockey> omegaphi: And I'm not sure why you can't see that file on the Windows partition from a live CD. Live CD's see more than Windows does most times.
[12:17] <DistroJockey> omegaphi: Not used wubi really, but it won't be automatically mounted in /disks
[12:17] <omegaphi> DistroJockey : My PC is a mess. It has got ubuntu10 and windows7, and over windows 7 I have ubuntu11 installed via wubi

[12:19] <crackerjackz> pooltable, is the image located on your "desktop"
[12:20] <Juv1228> one desktop PC that i would like to use for all my desktop tasks, which requires windows for some stuff, and i run ubuntu as my primary OS
[12:20] <omegaphi> DistroJockey : ok
[12:20] <pooltable> crackerjacksz no desktop in folder vm\
[12:20] <Pwnna> i've been trying to solve this for the past 2 weeks. can't find a solution. 5 hours of usage max before swap is getting used
[12:20] <Juv1228> unfortunately i need access to a specific PCI device within windows so most vmware/other stuff is out
[12:20] <crackerjackz> pooltable, you need to be in the same directory as the image
[12:21] <Juv1228> also would rather not have to reboot into windows whenever i need it.
[12:21] <crackerjackz> so
[12:21] <crackerjackz> cd /path/to/file.vdmk
[12:21] <crackerjackz> then once you're in that directory
[12:21] <crackerjackz> run this
[12:21] <Abhinav1> while watching video on ubuntu, video should be save in /tmp folder but in my case no video is there. where to configure it

[12:22] <pooltable> crackerjacksz here eightball@Sophia:~/Desktop/vm$ ls

[12:23] <crackerjackz> pooltable, now type this
[12:23] <crackerjackz> qemu-img convert "Mac OS X Snow Leopard.vmdk /tmp/Mac OS X Snow Leopard.bin"
[12:23] <Juv1228> my thinking is that i can run my current ubuntu install as dom0 and setup a windows xp as a guest under xen, but this begs the question.
[12:23] <Juv1228> performance issues?
[12:23] <crackerjackz> oop
[12:23] <crackerjackz> oops
[12:23] <crackerjackz> wait
[12:23] <crackerjackz> that's not right

[12:24] <crackerjackz> brainwave92, sorry

[12:24] <pooltable> crackerjacksz ok
[12:24] <coz_> MercyboxMonium,  I dont believe so
[12:24] <MercyboxMonium> clean install it is then

[12:28] <MercyboxMonium> hehe coz_ did i mention just how lazy? ... nah i think i knew the answer, and i reckon it does the old system good to completely nuke the disks  and start afresh

[12:29] <Hedgehog456> my webcam has no batteries, but it still appears to work
[12:29] <coz_> MercyboxMonium,  I believe it does,,and if you want to really clean up the disk before installation ,, download  Dban  and writ zeros to the drive,, depending on t he drive size, however it can take hours
[12:29] <HelpWithNatty> what does it mean when my PC freezes and the caps lock light is blinking?
[12:29] <brainwave92> HelpWithNatty, dont repeat so quickly!

[12:36] <crackerjackz> oCean, it errored out.. http://pastebin.com/jL7QLnGa
[12:36] <brainwave92> HelpWithNatty, it could be a kernel problem if caps lock is blinking. What distro are you running? And what is the output of uname -r?
[12:37] <shawny> hmm, perhaps I should look for a more specific room
[12:37] <HelpWithNatty> brainwave92: 2.6.38-8-generic and i am running natty
[12:37] <oCean> crackerjackz: var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process. -> shutdown other apt/softwaremanager instances
[12:37] <DistroJockey> HelpWithNatty: You could try Googleing with machine model and add +ubuntu  to the search
[12:37] <brainwave92> HelpWithNatty, then you already have a proper kernel. If you go to 10.04 i doubt things would improve.

[12:38] <crackerjackz> oCean, i don't have anything like that open it must be running in the background.. how do i tell it to stop?
[12:38] <brainwave92> !google
[12:38] <szal> brainwave92: you might want to update, 2.6.38-10 is the current kernel
[12:38] <HelpWithNatty> DistroJockey: ill try that. it might be good to mention as well i have an ATI gpu card and I may be having issues with fglrx
[12:38] <brainwave92> szal, i updated just now....:) maybe HelpWithNatty should try that
[12:38] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:39] <oCean> crackerjackz: search for the process that is using that file:  fuser -v /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
[12:39] <DistroJockey> Thanks bazhang but I explained what to do in Google and not just to Google it.
[12:39] <brainwave92> HelpWithNatty, since i got a kernel 2.6.38-10 today.....you just update your system. You'll also get it. See if some problem is fixed.

[12:39] <bhavesh_> I am making a Gambas program to edit GRUB menu, with this program I am attaching a C++ (g++) program which gives terminal a command "sudo update-grub2" but when I do so it asks for password "sudo" how can I show a window in Ubuntu which asks user for a password. Like the one which Synaptic Package Manager shows at start?
[12:40] <brainwave92> bhavesh_, u can try gksudo
[12:40] <HelpWithNatty> brainwave92: i updated to that -10 but it messed up my graphics. So went back to -8.
[12:40] <nightrid3r> bhavesh_ gksudo
[12:40] <bhavesh_> ok
[12:40] <coz_> bhavesh_,   gksudo

[12:40] <johna> I  have had to rebuild me server - was running Centos 5.5 - but I am thinking of moving over to Ubuntu 10.04+. What is/are the best tools for administering a family server - phenom II x4, 8Gb, 6Tb hdd. Is LVM worth it? what would be an optimal partitioning scheme? ...
[12:40] <oCean> crackerjackz: or check what is that PID first   ps axuwww |grep PID

[12:41] <balvinder25> Hello all,
[12:41] <balvinder25> im abit new to ubuntu and i need to backup
[12:41] <szal> johna: what did you use on CentOS for "administering"?
[12:41] <balvinder25> all of my customizations and settings on a dvd
[12:41] <omegaphi> DistroJockey : I am not able to copy/paste my root.disk file , I just found it out. can you help?
[12:41] <crackerjackz> oCean, the grep command you just gave me returned the pid of 3880
[12:41] <bazhang> balvinder25, rsync or sbackup
[12:42] <rogers> @shawny - Get webmin and use it to configure bind. Create a new zone for your local servers. Add nameserver entries to /etc/resolv.conf for your local dns and also for your external zone.
[12:42] <johna> Centos has a gnome based GUI, Plus built in tools.
[12:42] <oCean> crakdmirror: you have to grep for 3403
[12:42] <bazhang> !sbackup > balvinder25
[12:42] <Sidewinder1> balvinder25, You might look at grsync for back-ups; it's in the repositories.
[12:42] <theToff> Hey, I have a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5921, and have Natty installed... and I just had a very messed up system failure.... my laptop just overheated with no apparent cause...
[12:42] <szal> rogers: as I understand it, webmin is NOT supported on *buntu
[12:43] <theToff> I opened it up, checked all the cables, and everything seemed in order, the fan is running properly, etc...
[12:43] <BluesKaj> johna, best to ask in #ubuntu-server
[12:43] <rogers> @szal neither is it supported on Debian which I use commercially. It still works well enough. In fact I've never had an issue other than changing default locations of config files.
[12:44] <nightrid3r> johna depends what you want to do with it but as  a pure server http://www.zentyal.com/ might be usefull and its  ubuntu based
[12:44] <theToff> Any ideas as to what might have caused the issue?
[12:44] <crackerjackz> oCean, http://pastebin.com/DgR35dJQ
[12:44] <brainwave92> theToff, does it happen everytime?
[12:44] <theToff> Not at all, actually, and then twice this morning alone.
[12:44] <coz_> theToff,  you may want to test the hard drive temps
[12:45] <coz_> theToff,  sudo apt-get install  hddtemp
[12:45] <balvinder25> well i was actually looking to create an image of the current installed version so i can install it again the way it is.. something like norton image does, creates a snapshot of your hard rive . we write it on a dvd and just restore it back again..
[12:45] <coz_> theToff,  it doens have to be started at boot so ignor that prompt
[12:45] <johna> BluesKaj: Thanks! the centos WEB site doesn't mention that channel!
[12:45] <theToff> @coz_: I'll check that out.
[12:45] <nightrid3r> balvinder25 ghost4linux
[12:45] <balvinder25> Perfect !!!
[12:45] <coz_> theToff,  if you want to test temps in   celcius   the command is   sudo hddtemp /dev/sd*   i fyou want farenheit it is  sudo  hddtemp --u=F  /dev/sd*
[12:45] <theToff> @balvinder25 ghost is an awesome program
[12:45] <balvinder25> ill look into it..
[12:46] <crackerjackz> oCean, also not sure if this will help but here is output of pstree http://pastebin.com/gvL9qtiN
[12:46] <brainwave92> guys how big should a brasero source at launchpad be?
[12:47] <brainwave92> I tried pulling it out with bazar to fix a bug (my first) but its already downloaded 75 Mb and shows no relent yet
[12:47] <vikapi> wat is the alternative of /var/log/messages in ubuntu..i dnt find one in my installation..
[12:47] <oCean> crackerjackz: I have no idea why tasksel-debconf is there. Might be a hanging process from earlier?
[12:48] <crackerjackz> oCean, that sounds plausible
[12:48] <theToff> @coz_: I ran said prog.... 102F is my current reading
[12:48] <Leeds26m> hey all...does anyone know where I can read the release notes for Gnome 3?
[12:48] <coz_> theToff,  whoa ,, that's way too hot
[12:48] <bazhang> Leeds26m, check the PPA maintainer. its not supported here
[12:48] <coz_> theToff,  80 F  or  83 F should be the ceiling
[12:49] <theToff> I  know.... and this is on a laptop, mind you...
[12:49] <crackerjackz> oCean, any ideas?
[12:49] <bazhang> !gnome3 > Leeds26m
[12:49] <coz_> theToff,   shut it down,, let it cool off ,, then restart and see if the temps increase again
[12:49] <omegaphi> My root.disk file has got i/o errors so I Can't access my ubuntu. How do I repair it? I installed ubuntu with wubi
[12:49] <oCean> crackerjackz: earlier you rebooted to get rid of this process, right?
[12:49] <coz_> theToff,  if it gets beyong 90 F  shut it down again
[12:50] <theToff> ok.... btw, is there a prog I can use to check my core temps, etc?
[12:50] <vikapi> got it.. /var/log/syslog it is..
[12:50] <coz_> theToff,  otherwise you will get termal damage and the drive will fall into read only mode
[12:50] <pooltable> crackerjacksz ok look like it is done where do i find it and open it load it in vbox
[12:50] <crackerjackz> oCean, yah but someone in here told me to run tasksel and find webserver and mysql in hte list but i never could find them... i think i pressed enter with lamp-server highlighted.. rahter than pressing ctrl c
[12:50] <bipul> i don't understand what does it mean <Please ensure that you have enabled VT-x/AMD-V properly in the BIOS of your host computer>
[12:50] <oCean> crackerjackz: then I suggest to reboot again, and then run  sudo dpkg --configure -a  and  apt-get -f command again
[12:50] <crackerjackz> when i pressed enter it did nothing though.. it just took me back to the command line
[12:51] <johna> nightrid3r: the trouble with zentyal and other is that they tend to impose their ideas as to configs, eg, their postfix setup uses quarantine, whereas I drop anything that even remotely smells of spam; as my famuly is spread of 3 of the 5 continents I want things like webdav... and I ma not sure that zentyal et al support suchthings?
[12:51] <rugnur> hello I have a problem with partitions, can u help me pls? http://shortText.com/ZbRQBB
[12:51] <theToff> @bipul, what it means is that you need to have hardware virtualization support on the machine you are hosting the guest virtual machine
[12:51] <crackerjackz> okay brb
[12:51] <omegaphi> *reposting* my root.disk file has got i/o errors so I Can't access my ubuntu. How do I repair it? I installed ubuntu with wubi
[12:52] <bipul> theToff then how can i rectify this problem ?
[12:52] <Leeds26m> omegaphi... have you tried fsck with a livecd?
[12:53] <omegaphi> Leeds26m It failed
[12:53] <brainwave92> theToff what did you say your temperature was?
[12:53] <omegaphi> Leeds26m : because the root.disk is not even visible from livecd
[12:53] <lotuspsychje> omegaphi: hard disk broken?
[12:54] <Leeds26m> mmm, I'd say you're out of luck then omegaphi, I'm afraid
[12:54] <omegaphi> lotuspsychje : no
[12:54] <omegaphi> Leeds26m : can I try checkdisk from windows?
[12:54] <theToff> @brainwave92: currentyl, 104F
[12:54] <lotuspsychje> omegaphi: sata, ide, ssd?
[12:54] <theToff> *currently
[12:55] <coz_> theToff,  still too hot
[12:55] <omegaphi> lotuspsychje : how do I find it out?
[12:55] <coz_> theToff,  for a video card that is reasonable temp not for hard drives
[12:55] <theToff> I know...
[12:55] <brainwave92> theToff, thats even lower than mine.....that is normal
[12:55] <theToff> ....
[12:55] <brainwave92> mine is 118 farenheit!
[12:55] <theToff> How can I judge my processor's heat?
[12:56] <lotuspsychje> omegaphi: open your computer case and check, if ubuntu does not recognize hd, must be broken
[12:56] <crackerjackz> oCean, i'm not sure if maybe this would have anything to do with it.. but when i reboot. after i log in it says system problem detected, do you want to report problem now? cancel or report problem...
[12:56] <coz_> theToff,  you dont want to drive to get too much termal damage,, as i said it will fall into read only mode then you could be looking at a new hard drive
[12:56] <pooltable> crackerjacksz what do i do nest?
[12:56] <coz_> theToff,  terminal damage makes a drive unreliable
[12:56] <pooltable> next
[12:56] <rugnur> hello I have a problem with partitions, can u help me pls? http://shortText.com/ZbRQBB
[12:57] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, i have no clue what a "system problem" is, never seen that
[12:57] <crackerjackz> oCean, clicks on report problem then it says.. sorry the package phpmyadmin 3:3.3.10-1 failed to install or upgrade.
[12:57] <coz_> theToff,  another thing to try is install an earlier version of ubuntu ,, see if the temps continue to rise
[12:57] <omegaphi> lotuspsychje : I am on the same computer, and from the live cd I was able to access the HD
[12:57] <brainwave92> theToff, my hard disk is 118.4 . From what you say...that is a problem
[12:57] <crackerjackz> oCean, then it goes on to say.. you can help the developers to fix the package by reporting the problem... clicks on report problem again
[12:58] <coz_> theToff,   however here,, 11.04.. the only thing I noticed is increase in ram useage not much in temps of hard drive or video card
[12:58] <lotuspsychje> omegaphi and on natty clean install doesnt show?
[12:58] <oCean> crackerjackz: hm, well that's all related to the current dependency issue
[12:58] <crackerjackz> oCean, then it opens up a webpage that says this... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debconf/+bug/349469
[12:58] <oCean> crackerjackz: is the debconf / frontend process running atm?
[12:59] <crackerjackz> pooltable, send me the guide you're following again
[12:59] <crackerjackz> did the last command i give you work?
[13:00] <crackerjackz> oCean, how do i tell if it is running again?
[13:00] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, it seems there's  a common debconf issue in that bug
[13:00] <oCean> crackerjackz: please run fuser -v /var/cache/debconf/config.dat again
[13:01] <lotuspsychje> rugnur: what your prob with partitions?
[13:01] <crackerjackz> oCean, should i run sudo dpkg --configure -a  first?
[13:01] <oCean> crackerjackz: nope
[13:02] <crackerjackz> oCean, when i type that command it returns no output.. it just takes me back to the command line
[13:02] <haunted85> Hi everyone I'm a ubuntu 10.10 user and my numeric keypad no longer works... can anyone please help me with that?

[13:03] <rugnur> hi lotuspsychje basically, if you have a look on /dev/loop0 I have not space, while in /deve/sda5 there are 26 Gb free...I don't understand why appear a message saying:"you have 96 Mb only"
[13:03] <pooltable> crackerjacksz i not sure  where do i fine the file?
[13:03] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, it seems debconf/frontend is not running currently. Now run  sudo rm /var/cache/debconf/* to clear that cache, and hopefully to prevent it from failing again
[13:04] <lotuspsychje> rugnur: try to install gparted and pysdm to understand what partitions you have

[13:06] <crackerjackz> oCean, now try to remove lamp or should i run apt-get -f install first
[13:06] <lotuspsychje> brb
[13:06] <oCean> crackerjackz: you removed the cachefiles? Then first  sudo dpkg --configure -a   and see if there's any output
[13:06] <pooltable> crackerjacksz co comand VBoxMange ?
[13:06] <oCean> pooltable: VBoxManage
[13:07] <crackerjackz> oCean, yup cleared the cache with that command you gave me.. it returned no output so i guess that means it worked aye?
[13:07] <oCean> crackerjackz: no try  sudo apt-get -f install   again
[13:07] <pooltable> ocean yes
[13:08] <crackerjackz> oCean, i think its gonna work this time :) it says please choose webserver that should be automatically configure to run phpmyadmin
[13:09] <crackerjackz> pooltable, what is the name of your image again?
[13:09] <pooltable> crackerjacksz still lost here not even sure if the converrt work
[13:09] <crackerjackz> pooltable, paste bin me the output of everything youve done regarding that and ill look over it
[13:09] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, we're now actually getting somewhere? Once it's done, you still have to remove the lamp packages
[13:10] <onca> how do I prevent ubuntu from ugrading my kernel unless I compile it myself?
[13:11] <oCean> crackerjackz: once the -f install is done, check   pt-cache policy php5-common mysql-server-5.1 apache2.2-common

[13:11] <crackerjackz> oCean, awesome lamp is gone i'm pretty sure.. but how do i make certain that it is completely removed from the system.. i odn't want it to leave any config files behind or anything because i'm going to be reinstalling it
[13:11] <oCean> crackerjackz: see my previous command
[13:11] <onca> awesome cool bot too
[13:12] <crackerjackz> oCean, i ran apt-get remove name of every package that has to do with lamp
[13:13] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, but remove does not remove configuration completely. You might have to run apt-get purge <list-of-those-packages> again
[13:13] <omegaphi> lotuspsychje : I have windows and ubuntu via wubi, I can see everything but the root.disk file from live cd
[13:13] <crackerjackz> oCean, okay also did you mean ept-cache rather than pt-cache?
[13:13] <crackerjackz> or perhaps apt-cache
[13:13] <oCean> if you mean apt rather then ept, then yes, I meant apt :p
[13:14] <crackerjackz> ;p
[13:14] <onca> how might I clean up my system before I back it up?
[13:14] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, to be sure, run  dpkg -l | egrep '(apache2.2-common|mysql-server-5.1|php5-common)'

[13:26] <Dasc> anyone know how to downgrade linux headers?
[13:26] <oCean> venol: you have to be sure it's executable, and that the cron can find the path to the program. Check /var/log/syslog for failed cron jobs
[13:26] <venol> oCean: Ok..
[13:27] <oCean> Dasc: downgrade?
[13:27] <bazhang> spitzi, its end of life, its not supported. you need to upgrade
[13:27] <MikeTG> hello again
[13:27] <bazhang> !upgrade > spitzi
[13:27] <spitzi> bazhang - I use it for so little stuff. C'mon, it's not dead per se.
[13:27] <Dasc> oCean: yeah
[13:28] <MikeTG> my ubuntu always crash. does anyone can tell mw why please?
[13:28] <bazhang> spitzi, its not supported here. do what you wish, just dont ask for our support
[13:28] <spitzi> Surely there's some working repository for jaunty still somewhere.
[13:28] <bazhang> spitzi, no, there is not
[13:28] <oCean> Dasc: if you're building anything against your current kernel, you need the current headers version also
[13:28] <Dasc> oCean: updated my ubuntu and it seems to stopped allowing me to login via gnome :(
[13:28] <oCean> Dasc: that has nothing to do with -headers, if you want to boot into an older kernel, do so via grub menu
[13:28] <bazhang> spitzi, see the eolupgrades link in the link you got
[13:29] <remoteCTRL> hi guys!+
[13:29] <valleydaddy78> dasc, use ubuntu classic
[13:29] <spitzi> Oh well, thanks. Bye.
[13:29] <Dasc> oCean: hmmmm the older headers doesn't seem to work either :( and the problem I have is, I clicked on the update button 2 days ago and has now stopped working
[13:30] <Dasc> valleydaddy78: I would if I have to >_X;;; I just want to logon to my desktop
[13:30] <oCean> Dasc: the *headers* have nothing to do with that.
[13:30] <oCean> Dasc: what version ubuntu / gnome are you using?
[13:30] <MikeTG> could some one help me please, before ubuntu crashs again
[13:31] <crackerjackz> oCean, remember the apt-get purge command? it seems to purge some of it but some of it would not... http://pastebin.com/3rGeefvH
[13:31] <Dasc> oCean: my box was working till the last update, a guy here told me to check the apt history.log file, it says there it updated a few linux-header files and that's when my box stopped working
[13:31] <Dasc> oCean: I'm on 10.04.2
[13:32] <khadrin> trying to figure out why blkid is wrong about uuid and filesystem type: http://paste.ubuntu.com/645387/
[13:32] <oCean> crackerjackz: ok, to be sure, run  dpkg -l | egrep '(apache2.2-common|mysql-server-5.1|php5-common)'
[13:32] <khadrin> its not the cache file
[13:32] <oCean> crackerjackz: or grep for even more packages
[13:32] <crackerjackz> oCean, i did the output of that command is in the same pastebin

[13:33] <NeedHelp_> Hi, I've got a problem with gnome panels/whole of unity not appearing
[13:33] <Torne> how do you remap keys on the keyboard globally? for all users, in X and the console, all the time? I need to swap left alt and left win because i have a weird backwards keyboard. :)
[13:33] <MikeTG> need help or advices
[13:33] <oCean> crackerjackz: right now i see.. you can run a   sudo dpkg -P packagename  for those 3 packages, but it's still no guarantee that *every* configfile has been removed
[13:34] <oCean> crackerjackz: you you might have to look for those remaining configs in /etc (sub)directories yourself
[13:34] <crackerjackz> oCean, what does dpkg -P do?
[13:34] <Sidewinder1> !classic > NeedHelp_
[13:34] <remoteCTRL> i got this strange phenomenon that apeears to be copy protection related: when i insert an audio cd with a children's play on it, ubuntu suggests i open it with banshee which i dont as it crashes but i would like to see its contents so i choose nautilus, but then i get: Could not display "cdda://sr0/". i dont even get to see it when i use the mount command, also there is no entry for cdrom in /etc/fstab, nor a cd or dvd device in /dev but vlc DOES
[13:34] <szal> MikeTG: how does it crash
[13:34] <szal> ?
[13:35] <ronqbc> so how is my connection? http://www.speedtest.net/result/1388197618.png
[13:35] <NeedHelp_> Sidewinder1: I'm not asking about switching to classic
[13:35] <ronqbc> can i make skype not to appear in the task bar?
[13:35] <oCean> Dasc: ok, I have no clue why you cannot login. But I can tell you it's not the -headers update. But if -headers whas updated, then the linux-image (kernel) was updated also (likely) so you should be able to boot into the previous kernel
 thanks for asking, it just hang up. All I've to to is to turn it off
[13:35] <szal> remoteCTRL: VLC does what?
[13:35] <oCean> crackerjackz: it's a purge option. You can read details in the  man dpkg  page
[13:36] <szal> MikeTG: sounds like a hardware problem
[13:36] <Sidewinder1> NeedHelp_, No one else was answering; it was simply a suggestion, sorry. :-)
[13:36] <NeedHelp_> Sidewinder1: I'm asking about getting anything to work - suddenly no interface wants to appear, be that Unity or classic, and session takes ages to start
[13:36] <NeedHelp_> Sidewinder1: Ah, ok
[13:36] <crackerjackz> oCean, okay ty you have been a big help. thank you for helping me i gotta go get ready for this funeral now
[13:36] <NeedHelp_> Sidewinder1: better than nothing I guess :D
[13:36] <psychicist> fjorgynn: thanks, that seems to have solved most problems, although some of the channels that used to work with Totem's plugin have stopped working
[13:36] <oCean> crackerjackz: glad to be of help. See you later
 is there anyway to find it out?
[13:36] <maahes> where can I purge my notify-osd settings if I've screwed them up?
[13:36] <Dasc> oCean: well my current situation is that it boots onto the logon screen in gnome, lets you select uers, but after I've entered the correct password it goes black for 0.5 sec and then kicks me back to the login screen again.
[13:37] <rugnur> hello ubuntu says that there are only 130 Mb of space, and I don't know what to do considerating that the space is 29 Gb and 15Gb are unused, and it's installed in windows...
[13:37] <remoteCTRL> szal: if i choose to play the cd with vlc from within ubuntus "what shall i do with the media that you just inserted" dialog, then it plays! if i open vlc and click on the "file" menu then open location or open file i get the Could not display "cdda://sr0/". error
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> Dasc:  as a test  - use the console to make a new user. see if the newly made user works.
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> rugnur:  you used a wubi type install in windows?
[13:37] <maahes> rugnur→ you probably have a weird runaway log file. If you know how to use the terminal: go to /var/log and run du
[13:37] <szal> MikeTG: overheating -> install lm-sensors and some monitoring tool for whatever UI you use; if it overheats, open case & clean fan(s) and heatsink(s) (can't hurt anyway)
[13:38] <remoteCTRL> szal: also i cannot seem to figure out where ubuntu nowadays actually mounts the cdrom drive to as there a re no entries in fstab, nothing in /media, nothing in /dev, i'm confused!
[13:38] <szal> MikeTG: could be RAM -> run memtest86+ w/ as many passes as possible
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> remoteCTRL:  normally /media/VolumeNameOfTheCD from what ive seen
[13:38] <szal> remoteCTRL: afaik, audio CDs are not mounted
[13:39] <oCean> Dasc: I'm sorry, but I really have no clue why that happens. You can search launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu) for known bugs. Or try to boot in older linuxkernel (press and hold shift during boot to enter the grub men)
[13:39] <oCean> *menu
[13:39] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: that is exactly what i was hoping for, but thre is just nothing there! yet vlc plays it!
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> correct - you do not mount audio music cds
[13:39] <szal> MikeTG: could also be a too weak or failing PSU
[13:39] <Dasc> Dr_Willis: tried making a new user, it allows me to login, but then just stops loading after you've put in the correct password.  It has the background image and you can move your mouse around, no right clicks or anything.
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> remoteCTRL:  audio cd  gets accessed directly via the /dev/XXX item
[13:39] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: szal no?? erm... what then?
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> remoteCTRL:  i dont know what you are trying to do....
[13:40] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: do you happen to know that /dev/xxx item that could be? cos there is no /dev/cdrom nor /dev/dvd nor anything that would resemble a cd...?
[13:40] <Dr_Willis>  /dev/cdrom is normally a link to /dev/sr0 here
[13:41] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: well i was listening to an audio play with my daughter, then all of a sudden it ended in the middle, vlc does not recognize any further chapters, so i tried to just look what actually IS on the cd, but i can fugure out no way to just see its contendt, nautilus also says Could not display "cdda://sr0/".
 you could be wright. Under Windoz it uses to turn off automatically. Now I've open the case and put a ventilator on the side ;-). it is traditional but I think it should take care of the heat
[13:42] <MikeTG> ;-)
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> remoteCTRL:  check dmesg command output perhaps. it may mention some errors
[13:43] <cinnabar12> anyone know how to get a rt3090 wifi card working in natty?
[13:43] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: ok, the /dev/sr0 hint was already wery nice, could you also tell me with what filesystem option i should mount  a cdrom? like -t ext4 or -t iso99somthing?
[13:43] <RandomCake> Hi, I'm having troube with mutt, my command is 'mutt -s "email subject" -a data.txt<EMAIL_ADDRESS>< hello.txt', but it gives this error: 'Can't stat<EMAIL_ADDRESS>No such file or directory', any suggestions on where I'm going wrong?
[13:45] <llutz_> RandomCake: mutt -s "email subject" -a data.txt  --<EMAIL_ADDRESS>< hello.txt
[13:45] <remoteCTRL> i really can't recall when i ever had to do this manually...
[13:46] <RandomCake> thanks very much llutz :) I just found it on a forum! always the way, spend ages searching, and as soon as I ask, find it elsewhere aswell :)
[13:46] <llutz_> RandomCake: "man mutt" 4 seconds to find :)
[13:46] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: erm... dmesg throws like a ton of errors...
[13:47] <Mamed> hello
[13:47] <RandomCake> yeah, silly me trusting online documentation before man!
[13:47] <PhonicUK> hey all - I'm installing 10.04 LTS x64 on a machine that already has Windows 7 installed for a dual boot setup, however the "Install them side by side, choosing between them each startup" option is missing - it wants to either use the entire disk or use manual partitioning (which won't let me resize the windows partition)
[13:48] <bazhang> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/541620  cinnabar12 have a look here
[13:48] <PhonicUK> am I going to have to use something like GParteD first?
[13:48] <remoteCTRL> Dr_Willis: mostly keeps repeating the same thing over and over, like these 5 lines: http://nopaste.info/e090de0d3e.html
[13:49] <remoteCTRL> is that copy protection related?
[13:49] <cinnabar12> bazhang: I've looked there before, the workaround that's posted doesn't work
[13:50] <astraljava> llutz_: Yeah, manpages... such a forgotten resource. :-/  Also reminded me of this: http://xkcd.com/912/  But alas, I digress, for which I apologize.
[13:50] <ronqbc> can i make skype not to appear in the task bar?
[13:50] <ronqbc> so how is my connection? http://www.speedtest.net/result/1388197618.png

[13:51] <PhonicUK> ronqbc, impressive xD is that tethered or a landline?
[13:51] <Mamed> hi guys i have a problem with ubuntu. When i log on nothing is showing up except whats on the desktop. And Ctrl+Alt+T and Alt-F2 dont work i have been able to go around it and open the folder with all the applications so i can still opn terminal that way but i dont know what to do. If i log in to ubuntu without any special effects it works fine.
[13:51] <ronqbc> PhonicUK, landl
[13:51] <cinnabar12> bazhang: I've tried that too but oddly it either works for one run session and then on next startup it doesn't or it causes a kernel panic
[13:51] <astraljava> ronqbc: Could you please pastebin the output of `ping -c 50 www.google.com`
[13:51] <PhonicUK> ronqbc, wow - where are you that it's that bad?
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> Mamed:  so that points to it being a compiz or unity related issue.
[13:52] <astraljava> ronqbc: That will let us know whether there are packets dropping on the way.
[13:52] <bazhang> cinnabar12, thats all I can find presently, sorry
[13:52] <edbian> Mamed: Are you using unity or ubuntu classic?
[13:52] <astraljava> ronqbc: Otherwise, that connection shouldn't be the cause of such a delay.
[13:52] <cinnabar12> bazhang: wait a mo, it's been updated since I used it last
[13:52] <cinnabar12> bazhang: I'll give i a shot
[13:52] <onca> where are modules selected to be loaded, how do I remove some?
[13:52] <Dr_Willis> !blacklist | onca
[13:52] <stercor_> My mouse is stuck.  What process should I look for and kill?  Or does it require a reboot?
[13:52] <onca> thankyou
[13:53] <ronqbc> astraljava, how much time should the process take?
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> stercor_:  you could try going to the console and restatting the X session. 'sudo service gdm restart'
[13:53] <edbian> onca: It's all in kernel code.  When the system boots the hardware is scanned and proper modules are selected for you from a long list of available ones.
[13:53] <ronqbc> PhonicUK, israel
[13:53] <szal> remoteCTRL: copy protection can have weird effects..  I have some copy-protected CDs, and everytime I insert one it shows a different number of tracks, so I can be lucky to have the whole CD showing, or nothing at all, or anything in between
[13:53] <astraljava> ronqbc: The '-c 50' option means "try 50 times", and it pings once a second.
[13:53] <stercor_> Dr_Willis: Thanks.  I'll do just that.
[13:53] <cinnabar12> bazhang: if it does happen to work and I add the PPA to my sources.list do you think it would still work if I did an upgrade to Oneiric when it comes out?
[13:54] <Mamed> ya i happened after i installed ccsm and then i crashed and restarted and i when into classic and everything works fine there and i uninstalled ccsm and went back to notmal ubuntu and it was the same problem and i went back into classic again and installed ccsm again thinking that maybe maybe i could go back to the default settings but everything is already on default and it still isnt working
[13:54] <maahes>  /buffer notify highlight
[13:54] <szal> remoteCTRL: at this occasion I pat my audiocd:/ kioslave (KDE)
[13:54] <maahes> blah
[13:54] <remoteCTRL> szal: hehe weird... yet still you are one step ahead of me, cos i don't even get to see the tracks -.-
[13:54] <ronqbc> astraljava, will it be sufficient to make it just 20?
[13:54] <Dr_Willis> Mamed:  there was no need to uninstall ccsm. it just tweaks the compiz settings..
[13:54] <astraljava> ronqbc: If it's a really bad case, probably.
[13:54] <bazhang> cinnabar12, all PPA are removed upon version upgrade, it will either be included in oneiric, or perhaps the maintainer will make one for oneiric
[13:54] <Dr_Willis>  Mamed  there are some commands to reset unity and compiz back to defaults. I think i got the url bookmarked at -> http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[13:55] <exutux> bazhang: hi, can I pm you a bit?
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> Mamed:  its from the webupd8 blog site

[13:55] <exutux> bazhang: isn't for support

[13:56] <onca> how might I enforce the loading of a module?
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> onca:  tell us what you are trying to acomplish by all this.
[13:57] <llutz_> onca: at boottime? add it to /etc/modules
[13:57] <onca> ok
[13:57] <onca> thanks
[13:57] <edbian> onca: What module, for what hardware? (generally the best way is to remove all other possibilities).  You can also sudo modprobe it manually
[13:57] <onca> I have patched my kernel for the unifying receiver for logitech and for the Digitalpersona for my fignerprint scanner
[13:57] <onca> Dr Willis does that help?
[13:58] <remoteCTRL> szal: darn... i might really invest into some dvd-playa, cos somehow i've had these "NO YOU CANNOT LISTEN TO THIS CD ON YOUR COMPUTER, COS WE ARE COPY OVERPRETECTIVE" nonsense up to here... or... i stop buying cds and start downloading like them everybody else... i really detest them *****s!
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> onca:  so you knew how to patch a kernel . but not load a module?
[13:58] <Skaperen> anyone know when Ubuntu will support (have a package for) unionfs or aufs or something like that?
[13:58] <onca> Dr_willis, it's been ten years since I've done this
[13:58] <onca> and it's very different
[13:58] <savid> Hi, I'm trying to replicate unity's functionality w/o using unity (because it's unstable as hell).   I'm using docky + gnome-do for launching,  but I really liked the app-menus and maximzed feature of unity (ie, where the window titlebar merges into the panel when maximized).   Is there a way to do this?
[13:58] <remoteCTRL> szal:  Dr_Willis: anyways, thanks for you'r efforts!
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> onca:  what issue were you having with the unify reciever? the one i have here just 'works'
[13:59] <onca> My keyboard works fine
[13:59] <onca> my mouse won't
[13:59] <onca> I have three dongles and none of them pair up
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> Odd. Mine both worked here.. untill the wife took them. :)
[14:00] <szal> remoteCTRL: can't hurt having a hardware player anyway, especially since they cost almost nothing these days
[14:00] <onca> I have a nifty solar powered keyboard
[14:00] <edbian> savid: The only way I know of is a) install / use unity.  b) edit some source code (which is what they did to create unity).  I'm not sure of another way.
[14:00] <onca> gotta reboot
[14:00] <edbian> outta batteries for your keyboard?
[14:00] <Utopia_> any kind soul to help me with an ubuntu server issue?
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  its in the shade. :)
[14:00] <savid> edbian,  are you suggesting I actually participate in open-source development?  That's madness!
[14:01] <edbian> hahah
[14:01] <edbian> Utopia_: What's the issue?
[14:01] <ronqbc> astraljava, http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/
[14:01] <nocilis> just put the new ubuntu on my machine aaaaaand now I can't find most of my packages
[14:01] <edbian> savid: I'm recommending you don't re-invent the wheel
[14:01] <Skaperen> savid: why is that?
[14:01] <goatWalkerZ> hi  I'm having problem with my window's title bar....they're not showing :((
[14:01] <f3bruary> Utopia_: whats your problem
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> nocilis:  'my' packages? what packages...
[14:01] <nocilis> specifically libsdl-dev and liballeg-dev
[14:01] <savid> Skaperen,   /sarcasm
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> !info libsdl-dev
[14:01] <melvincv> Hi. I'm trying to create a dialer. I'm using ADSL modem by BSNL India. It is running in bridged mode. PPPoE somehow fails after some time. I used the DSL tab in the Edit connections box, but I'm unable to connect from a standard user account using GUI. It just says "Wired network: device not managed" Please help me.
[14:01] <edbian> nocilis: Have you looked at Synaptic -> Edit -> Software Sources ?
[14:01] <nocilis> unforunately, yes
[14:01] <Skaperen> savid: of course, but adding sarcasm to open source projects would be great, IMHO
[14:01] <Utopia_> Well trying to install ubuntu server on a HP DL380 G4 server but installation only stops after "detecting harware" part..
[14:02] <nocilis> edbian: no, checking that now
[14:02] <edbian> nocilis: sure
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> !info libsdl1.2-dev
[14:02] <goatWalkerZ> can anyone help me?  :/
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> apt-cache search libsdl | grep dev     :)
[14:02] <bazhang> goatWalkerZ, on unity?
[14:02] <goatWalkerZ> no on gnome classic version
[14:02] <edbian> Utopia_: Bad place to get stuck.  Try removing certain bits of hardware one at a time and booting.  Then you'll see which is the problem. Easy first one: hdd
[14:03] <Skaperen> Utopia_: I've found that about 40% of HP models won't work with Linux as is ... but I've also found that some of them will work if ACPI is turned off in BIOS first
[14:03] <nocilis> dr_willis: trying that
[14:03] <bazhang> goatWalkerZ, what does alt f2 metacity --replace    do
[14:03] <nocilis> ubottu: umm? so it's installed automatically with libsdl?
[14:03] <Dr_Willis> nocilis:  if trying to compile a package in the repos. you can use the 'build-dep' option in apt to pull in all the ndeede -dev packages also.
[14:03] <Utopia_> Yea it's horrible place to get stuck, no commadline (working) or anything =(
[14:03] <Utopia_> only the purple screen =(
[14:04] <savid> edbian,  getting unity to a place where it's not buggy will likely take more effort than I'm willing to expend  (I gotta pay the rent).
[14:04] <savid> edbian, Like I said, I've got most of the stuff I like about it.  I have docky + gnome-do for launching, and  I figured out how to get app-menus using the appmenu indicator applet.   The only thing left is the maximizing feature.  If that's something I can't replicate w/o unity then I'm fine without it.  I was just asking here just in case there was something I wasn't aware of.
[14:04] <venol> Excusme, anybody here can show to me, where is the tutorial configuration mailgraph on ubuntu 10.04
[14:04] <nocilis> Utopia_ -- tried switching to a different virtual terminal?
[14:04] <Utopia_> but ok, try to turn off ACPI first.. and for this test i can't remove Hd's i'm only using 1 atm
[14:04] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Keyring: "GNOME Keyring is a daemon application designed to take care of the user's security credentials, such as user names and passwords. The sensitive data is encrypted and stored in a keyring file in the user's home folder." What is the name of this file in Natty?
[14:04] <edbian> savid: There used to be a gnome-applet called maximizer. See if that is still around
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> !keyring
[14:04] <goatWalkerZ> bazhang: "compiz --replace" or "metacity --replace" or in other words reloading the window manager or changing the window decorator didn't help
[14:04] <robin0800> PhonicUK, you could use the alternate cd which has a much better partitioner
[14:04] <ronqbc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> Dr_willis: you know a way to colortail -f all logs togheter instead of seperate, so i can see realtime changes in any of /var/log
[14:05] <ronqbc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/  does this bad? what should i do?
[14:05] <bazhang> goatWalkerZ, which theme and which window-decorator are you using
[14:05] <edbian> savid: They put the feature you're talking about into maximizer and then they moved everything and now call it unity.
[14:05] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  cat them all, and pipe it into colortail perhaps.
[14:05] <PhonicUK> robin0800, i just found out its because the hard disk is failing its SMART test and has bad sectors xD
[14:05] <PhonicUK> so its refusing to do much
[14:05] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  that may be a big mess. :)
[14:05] <PhonicUK> gotta RMA the drive

[14:06] <xertia> Hello, is anyone able to help me out regarding 11.04 installation onto ext USB HDD? I get as far as partitioning and then it decides not to recognise the USB drive (even though the Live booted OS does).... help plz :) PM me if need.
[14:06] <bazhang> goatWalkerZ, I'd see emerald as the issue as its no longer maintained nor supported
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  some of the files in /var/log dir. I think are 'binary' data. so you dont want to cat them
[14:06] <nocilis> hmm - dr_willis... it now seems like I can apt-get libsdl1.2-dev
[14:06] <Sidewinder1> melvincv, Perhaps this will help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1706341
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> nocilis:  thats the package name. :)
[14:06] <melvincv> Thanks!
[14:06] <nocilis> dr_willis but it wasn't showing up in the package manager
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> nocilis:  it did here...
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> apt-cache search libsdl | grep dev     :)
[14:06] <Sidewinder1> melvincv,  Sorry it took me so long to find. :-)
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: ive read up a tool multitail, it can tail seperate logs
[14:06] <goatWalkerZ> bazhang: so how do I fix this? If I want to remove emerald window manager
[14:07] <Dr_Willis> goatWalkerZ:  emerald is a window decorator. not a window manager.
[14:07] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: but i was wondering if logs can be tracked in one central place?
[14:07] <nocilis> dr_willis yeah I tried that and it found it, so thanks for your help. It's working now :D
[14:07] <Dr_Willis> lotuspsychje:  theres so many things taht can be done with logs and logservers its scary.. so proberly can.. but i never need to do it.
[14:07] <goatWalkerZ> bazhang: sorry I mean will it be fixed if I remove it
[14:08] <bazhang> goatWalkerZ, not sure, I've never had that issue and not used emerald in several years
[14:08] <oCean> lotuspsychje: you can configure syslog to log in single file See /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf
[14:08] <venol> oCean: Helo, thanks for your suggestion. The script success running for 5 minutes first. But, when I try again that's fault..
[14:08] <Skaperen> lotuspsychje: unix has been logging multiple logs from different machines onto one before Linus even went to school
[14:09] <ronqbc> does #css logged?
[14:09] <ronqbc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/  does this bad? what should i do?

[14:10] <melvincv> Thanks, but why doesn't the DSL tab work???
[14:10] <Skaperen> daGrevis: yeah, Windows makes people mistype contractions
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> ocean: tnx lemme try that
[14:10] <venol> oCean: Oh thanks, that's solved. I just need restart the cron. :)
[14:10] <melvincv> It worked, till I logged in as a desktop user.
[14:10] <daGrevis> damn, ´ this doesnt work
[14:10] <oCean> venol: ok!
[14:10] <daGrevis> ironic, huh?
[14:11] <Skaperen> daGrevis: what I can't stand are people that like Windows

[14:11] <daGrevis> oCean, can you help me?
[14:11] <edbian> haha
[14:11] <edbian> savid: Why do you say that?
[14:11] <Skaperen> oCean: I did

[14:12] <cybervolfe> can any one help me plz....before it get disconnected
[14:12] <daGrevis> it recognize my device, but when  try to connect... it just doesnt do anything. just tried and thats all. fater few minutes it asks psw again/
[14:12] <Gama11> any idea why I gotta type in my pass 4 times until i can actually use my ubuntu? the settings are changed to auto-login, so i don't log in from the login screen. Also, I definetely didn't mistype it, as it doesn't say that and it's _always exactly 4 times_
[14:12] <oCean> daGrevis: nope
[14:12] <daGrevis> oCean, damn.
[14:12] <daGrevis> any1 else?
[14:12] <edbian> daGrevis: Are you logging into unity or ubuntu classic or ubuntu classic no-effects
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> Gama11:  you mean the keyring is poping up 4 times?
[14:13] <savid> edbian, well, you called it "maximizer" earlier -- but I couldn't find anything on that.  wanted to make sure it was the same thing you were talking about.  not sure yet.
[14:13] <daGrevis> edbian, xubuntu - xfce.
[14:13] <stercor> How do I change the video resolution on my terminal sessions?
[14:13] <edbian> savid: I think you found it and I remembered the name wrong.
[14:13] <edbian> daGrevis: Do you have desktop effects running?
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> stercor:  the consoles can use the framebuffer tools to change their res. fbset and a fes other fb* commands.
[14:13] <mrk1> newbie question: i mounted a second hard drive yesterday after formatting it as ext4. i can see it but it does not let me create any files or folders. It is a permissions problem so i tried chmod in terminal but that is not working either. any advice?
[14:14] <daGrevis> edbian, what do u mean with that? There arent such mega effects in xfce. just simple desktop. and it works, ye.
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> mrk1:  set the permissions and ownership of the mountpoint to be owned by your user. Or make a directory  in the drive/mouintpoint and chown.chmod that.
[14:14] <edbian> mrk1: sudo chown -R you:you /path/to/folder/with/hdd/mounted/in/it
[14:14] <edbian> That was a long path!
[14:14] <edbian> mrk1: That will make you the owner
[14:14] <cybervolfe> hey guys help me please..........
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> !permissions | mrk1
[14:15] <ehnde> could anyone help with this question? http://askubuntu.com/questions/53332/lost-access-to-my-files-after-changing-plan
[14:15] <melvincv> Hmm. I guess updating my Ubuntu box should iron out some bugs... hope it fixes the DSL one too.
[14:15] <ehnde> i can't get to my files on ubuntu one anymore
[14:15] <Gama11> Dr_Willis: exactly.
[14:15] <edbian> daGrevis: What wifi card do you have?  What driver are you using?  What video card do you have. what driver are you using for that?
[14:15] <Dr_Willis> ehnde:  you may want to try the #ubuntuone channel
[14:15] <bazhang> ehnde, also try in #ubuntuone
[14:15] <ehnde> Dr_Willis: thanks, i had no idea there was a channel for that
[14:15] <Skaperen> daGrevis: what video card are you using?  seems maybe the driver for it is fubar
[14:15] <edbian> !ask | cybervolfe:
[14:15] <xertia> can anyone tell me why 11.04 live recognises my ext usb hdd, but then the installer wont?
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> Gama11:  you can reset the keyring, and have it use unsafe storage. so it never asks.. if you wanted. it could be 4 differnt apps accessing the keyring at the same time.. ive never had it be an issue
[14:16] <mrk1> dr willis thanks
[14:16] <mrk1> edbian thanks
[14:16] <Skaperen> xertia: is it partitioned?
[14:16] <melvincv> If not, may I know where to report the bug in Network Connections GUI?
[14:16] <edbian> mrk1: sure
[14:16] <edbian> mrk1: Did that fix it?
[14:16] <cybervolfe> edbian: i am having trouble with the mobile broadband connection
[14:16] <edbian> xertia: Is it mounted?
[14:16] <bazhang> !bug > melvincv
[14:16] <xertia> yep, just used gparted to create ext4 (bootable) and swap partitions on it, then launched installation, get to allocating disk and it wont show up ??
[14:17] <daGrevis> edbian, i have linksys wusb60n stick. i did all like in this tut - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/linksys-wusb600n-driver-and-dlink-dwl-ag132-driver-622449/ . i dont know what v0car i have, but its on-board. and no drivers for it. just native for linux.
[14:17] <Skaperen> xertia: I've found that the installer fails on certain partition limits of its own being exceeded
[14:17] <cybervolfe> edbian:it getting disconnected automatically
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> Gama11:  keyring files are in ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ it seems
[14:17] <mrk1> edbian i am trying it out now ill let you know
[14:17] <edbian> xertia: Just cause you partitioned it does not mean it's mounted.  In fact it means those partitions are probably unmounted
[14:17] <edbian> cybervolfe: what?
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> oCean: so it can harm if i change /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf all seperate lines to /var/log/general or something?
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> xertia:  ive had cases where ive needed to reboot after repartitioning a disk. for the os to see the new changes.
[14:17] <Skaperen> xertia: did you partition on mbr or gpt format?  any partition numbers above 15 ?
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> cant..
[14:18] <lisak> guys I installed sendmail, but it doesn't run on port 25 even after I changed  daemon_netmode to dynamic in sendmail.conf
[14:18] <xertia> mbr i believe...
[14:18] <lisak> anybody have experience with that ?
[14:18] <xertia> dr_willis: yeah i tried a reboot
[14:18] <cybervolfe> edbian:yes ,the  internet connection is getting disconnected automatically
[14:18] <xertia> the device (ie. /hda) doesn't even appear in the disk allocation list
[14:18] <Gama11> Dr_Willis: I've got quite a few indicators in my systray - possible that they want me to type in the pass....
[14:19] <thecooldick> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymLfe1UlHD4
[14:19] <thecooldick> I have this problem!
[14:19] <Skaperen> xertia: does the device show up in the output of the command (from a terminal):  cat /proc/partitions
[14:19] <thecooldick> watch toe video, ot shows it
[14:19] <thecooldick> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymLfe1UlHD4

[14:19] <edbian> daGrevis: reading...
[14:19] <xertia> skaperen: yes it does
[14:19] <edbian> thecooldick: I will answer simply because you have a video and that is fun.  Watching...
[14:19] <oCean> lotuspsychje: it's been a while since I've changed the syslog config. Anyway backup the file before you edit.. But I think it is possible to let every priority log to its own logfile AND add a 2nd "general" logfile
[14:20] <bazhang> thecooldick, stop it, that has zero to with ubuntu
[14:20] <effeietsanders> can someone ban suzy_ ? he/she's spamming new joiners
[14:20] <edbian> thecooldick: ... ?
[14:20] <cybervolfe> edbian:but there is no problem with the connection in the backtrack linux
[14:20] <Baltazaar> Skaperen, fint navn du har der!
[14:21] <edbian> cybervolfe: This is the ubuntu channel.  Not backtrack
[14:21] <thecooldick> please! someone help me
[14:21] <thecooldick> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymLfe1UlHD4
[14:21] <edbian> daGrevis: What driver are you using right now then?  does lspci show the device??
[14:22] <bullgard4> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Keyring: "GNOME Keyring is a daemon application designed to take care of the user's security credentials, such as user names and passwords. The sensitive data is encrypted and stored in a keyring file in the user's home folder." What is the name of this file in Natty?
[14:22] <cybervolfe> edbian:hey i just told the symptoms
[14:22] <Skaperen> Baltazaar: jeg stjal den
[14:22] <xertia> im a little lost with this one... might give up on the idea of installing to the usb... which means not installing ubuntu at all :\
[14:22] <daGrevis> edbian, can u tell me how to now what driver am i using? im new to linux. what info do u need and how can I get it?
[14:22] <edbian> cybervolfe: This is ubuntu support, not backtrack
[14:22] <cybervolfe> edbian:please help me man
[14:22] <lotuspsychje> oCean: would be cool to colortail all log warnings, lemme try that :p
[14:22] <Baltazaar> Skaperen, med mindre du ER skaperen, så gjorde du nok det...
[14:22] <cinnabar12> bazhang: hey it's me, markus' driver might've worked but all I'm getting is the lines continuously going up the network manager icon and i asking for my encryption key
[14:23] <edbian> daGrevis: sure, sudo lspci -k    Does that output show the device?  (if yes it will list the driver)  It is long.  You can use paste.ubuntu.com for me to read it if you like.
[14:23] <szal> Baltazaar, Skaperen: please speak English here
[14:23] <ongolaBoy> hello. what can explain that a friend is registered in launchpad but he can't edit https://wiki.ubuntu.com
[14:23] <FloodBot1> thecooldick: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:23] <Baltazaar> szal, it was only a short joke about his name ;-)
[14:23] <daGrevis> edbian, ty. gonna paste link to output after few mins.
[14:24] <edbian> daGrevis: ok
[14:24] <edbian> daGrevis: I am quite sure it won't show up there because it's a USB device.  But I wanted you to look to be sure
[14:24] <Gama11> i've got a microsoft sidewinder 4 keyboard with some extra keys that can be configured - normally. how would i do this on linux?
[14:24] <puzzones> for delete a directory  with inside files,what i do?
[14:24] <cybervolfe> edbian: i can connect to the internet only for 3 minutes using the NetworkManager Applet 0.8.1
[14:24] <edbian> puzzones: rm -r /path/to/folder
[14:25] <Skaperen> szal: sorry, just making a quick snide remark back in the same language ... I can translate if needed but it was o/t so you probably don't care
[14:25] <edbian> wow really
[14:25] <edbian> cybervolfe: I told you twice this is Ubuntu support NOT backtrack
[14:25] <puzzones> folder
[14:25] <puzzones> not rmdor?
[14:25] <puzzones> not rmdir?
[14:25] <oCean> Skaperen: please don't again. This channel is english only
[14:25] <puzzones> thanks
[14:26] <Skaperen> oCean: does that also apply to nicknames?
[14:26] <cybervolfe> edbian:hey i am using ubuntu 10.04 now
[14:26] <Baltazaar> Skaperen, I knew that was coming... Just had to comment your nick
[14:26] <edbian> cybervolfe: hahah, that was fast
[14:26] <cybervolfe> edbian: thats why i am here
[14:26] <ikonia> cybervolfe: my test suggests your not
[14:27] <edbian> cybervolfe: I can't very well help you now!  I'd look like a lunatic

[14:27] <bsmith093> how do i fix an index to an audio file
[14:27] <oCean> !guidelines | Skaperen you can find our guidelines here. If you have questions about those, ask in #ubuntu-ops

[14:28] <cybervolfe> edbian:hey i don't know more about linux ,please help me
[14:28] <ikonia> cybervolfe: #backtrack-linux is the correct channel
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: did maverick fail on yout oo?
[14:28] <Skaperen> oCean: sorry, those guidelines do not answer the question I asedk
[14:28] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: yes indeedy, it did the same thing, kept asking for my encrption key
[14:28] <Skaperen> asked
[14:28] <bazhang> Skaperen, lets move on please
[14:28] <oCean> Skaperen: read my previous answer

[14:29] <cybervolfe> ikonia: i am not using the dam backtrack now
[14:29] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: I actually get the feeling my network owner has blocked the IP address used by Ubuntu on the network but not Windows unless they'd be the same
[14:29] <lotuspsychje> cinnabar12: you sure you have the right case sensitive key available for that network?
[14:29] <ikonia> cybervolfe: my test suggests you are
[14:29] <cinnabar12> lotuspsychje: I tried both upper and lower case, sometimes it's picky sometimes it's not
[14:30] <Skaperen> oCean: the answer that is before the question which asks a different aspect?
