[20:03] <onetinsoldier> !Lubuntu | Black_Phantom
[20:03] <lengend> alright ActionParsnip, ty
[20:03] <crimsun> Black_Phantom: insert sudo in the last
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Causality: then find the file online and grab the file and put it in /lib/firmware
[20:04] <ne7work> how to see file exist or no
[20:04] <ne7work> ls -la is for..
[20:04] <ne7work> folder.. to file exist?
[20:04] <causality> ActionParsnip: so my issue right now is why "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" doesnt work, with error "E: Couldn't find package b43-fwcutter"
[20:04] <greezmunkey> mads-: Heh, nice: http://www.netup.biz/article-pppoe-server.php
[20:04] <mads-> Thanks!
[20:04] <rui> greezmunkey: my computer crash
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Causality: did you run: sudo apt-get update ,first?
[20:04] <Black_Phantom> crimsun, thats for Ubuntu Light or just installing the Unity interface ?
[20:05] <causality> ActionParsnip: No, this is my first ever install of Ubuntu, like 30 mins ago.
[20:05] <rui> greezmunkey:on windows its windows 7
[20:05] <crimsun> Black_Phantom: latter
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: does the wifi connect (even if not automagically)
[20:05] <greezmunkey> mads-: I haven't read the entire thing, but I assume that bandwidth throttling would necessarily be part of the radius setup!
[20:05] <rui> greezmunkey:they say to sahare with others windows 7
[20:05] <Black_Phantom> alright thanks
[20:05] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: yes but I have right click the icon, and click enable networking
[20:06] <mads-> It's the bandwith throttling I am looking for. So that's nice
[20:06] <greezmunkey> rui: Can you see that shared printer from your ubox as I described?
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> Causality: I recommend using a wired connection and getting full updates. The driver for the wifi will also be offered.
[20:06] <causality> ActionParsnip: already in progress :)
[20:06] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: most of the time it does, sometimes it doesn't connect when I wakeup the laptop from sleep
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: I've seen this and I worked around by installing wicd
[20:06] <rui> greenzmunkey:whatt is a ubox?
[20:06] <Jordan_U> causality: Connect your computer via ethernet and go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[20:06] <dominicdinada> causality: what version are you using?
[20:06] <Doofy> Hello world!
[20:06] <greezmunkey> rui: sorry, ubuntu
[20:06] <Black_Phantom> crimsun, I will be able to choose it when I login or how exactly ?
[20:07] <Lasivian> how do I make my wireless card change to ad-hoc mode?
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: you may need a wakeup script to remove the driver module, the reload it to wake up the adapter
[20:07] <causality> dominicdinada: version of what, ubuntu? if so 10.04, whatever is on the site today.
[20:07] <crimsun> Black_Phantom: yes, you can choose the desired session at the gdm greeter
[20:07] <rui> greezmunkey:yes i can see the windows network
[20:07] <Black_Phantom> great
[20:07] <Black_Phantom> thanks again
[20:07] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: I should install wicd?
[20:07] <greezmunkey> rui: under that choose windows printer via Samba
[20:08] <greezmunkey> rui: go for the low hanging fruit, and select browse - see if it finds that machine you shared it on.
[20:08] <Doofy> Tranny is?
[20:08]  * causality reboots and hopes for the best
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Causality: sweet. Updates fix lots of stuff. Hopefully the system will also sort out the wifi for you too :)
[20:08] <causality> ActionParsnip: i'm not new to unix, but i'm typically not a fan of lunix but win7 was too slow on this laptop, so i thought i'd give it a chance.
[20:08] <Doofy> Tranny is?
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Doofy: a chick with a penis ;)
[20:09] <greezmunkey> rui: go to System>Administration>Printing, choose add, network printer, printer via SAMBA
[20:09] <ne7work> In ubuntu server edition from terminal how I can switch between process
[20:09] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: do you have a wakeup script?
[20:09] <rui> greezmunkey:ok im there
[20:09] <Slart> ne7work: you can send a process to the background if that's what you mean
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> Causality: lxde is slick and quick :)
[20:09] <dominicdinada> !wifi
[20:09] <causality> ActionParsnip: i prefer things that just work and this is being flakey so far.
[20:09] <Slart> ne7work: something like    <somecommand> &     will run it in the background.. so you can use the terminal while it's running
[20:10] <Flannel> ne7work: the clunky way is to send stuff to background/foreground, etc.  You might be interested in GNU Screen, which allows you to have a number of virtual terminals open
[20:10] <ne7work> Slart and how?
[20:10] <causality> ActionParsnip: video support isn't perfect.
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: no as I can't be bothered with the heartache that hibernate brings. There are samples around though
[20:10] <rui> greezmunkey :i see the windows WORKGROUP
[20:10] <greezmunkey> rui: see if it locates the laptop
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Causality: depends on chip. Nvidia support is as good as windows
[20:10] <Slart> ne7work: there's also "screen" and the different TTY's.. try ALT+F1, ALT+F2 and so on for all the running TTYS
[20:10] <Gozar> How do I enable two 8400GS for 3 monitors in 10.04 with Nouveau?
[20:10] <Doofy> ActionParsnip  you went
[20:10] <An_Ony_Moose> is there a program that can stream any GStreamer-compatible streams to a v4l device? (yes, I'm obsessed with streams :P)
[20:10] <causality> ActionParsnip: this is an ibm thinkpad x30
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Doofy: went where
[20:10] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: should I install wicd?
[20:11] <guysoft22> hi all, i need to enable multiverse in ubuntu via the commandline, might anyone know how to do that?
[20:11] <dominicdinada> causality: it is actually pretty easy. :P well the fw for your broadcom
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> Causalityh: saying "video support" is real vague. Some chips are very supported
[20:11] <rui> greezmunkey :they locate but still with the working pointer
[20:11] <cowguru2000> Hey all! How do I create a user that won't show up on the login screen picker?
[20:11] <causality> ActionParsnip: wifi is now working, thanks
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: sure. I think its great. Its also DE independant
[20:11] <greezmunkey> rui: like it's looking?
[20:11] <guysoft22> hi all, i need to enable multiverse in ubuntu via the commandline, might anyone know how to do that?
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> Causality: sweet. Wtg!
[20:11] <Flannel> ne7work: ctrl-z (pause) then `jobs` then bg # (where # is the job number) and fg # (again, where # is the job number)
[20:11] <jukkaar> hello, I wanted to install ubuntu 10 today with usb it worked but I closed the notebook during the process and it was gone into sleep mode, after that the setup crashed and I had to restart, now there is only .. grub rescue.. WTF!?!
[20:12] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: sorry DE?
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> Guysoft22: edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:12] <Doofy> ActionParsnip     Went you asshole
[20:12] <Flannel> ne7work: But again, screen is much more friendly if you intend to do this often: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: desktop enviroment (kde, gnome, lxde etc)
[20:12] <Slart> !language | Doofy
[20:12] <dominicdinada> jukkaar: you should know better than that
[20:12] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: thanks

[20:12] <ActionParsnip> Doofy: you lost me...
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: np man
[20:12] <mataks> i just upgraded from karmic to lucid.. and now everytime i boot i can't see a boot screen or boot logo instead i see  a tiny distorted text at the top of my screen which is impossible to read.. help please
[20:12] <cowguru2000> guysoft22: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine#Adding the Universe and Multiverse Repositories
[20:13] <rui> greezmunkey:a Share WORKGROUP and comment BARBARA-PC, and in the begining it shows a PLus and now the plus is gone
[20:13] <cowguru2000> mataks: i'm having the same issue! please help
[20:13] <jukkaar> if I type help nothing works
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: wicd doesn't support 3G so if you use 3G keep network manager. Wicd will also automagically remove network manager for you. Just reboot adnd config your connection
[20:14] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: there is no way to fix this with network manager?
[20:14] <duffydack> !swap > duffydack
[20:14] <greezmunkey> rui: ok, no problem - you can see that far, so it will probably work. What is the sharename of the printer on the laptop?
[20:14] <Doofy> Guys!!!
[20:14] <Doofy> How are you?
[20:14] <dominicdinada> jukkaar:  for the second time read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD\
[20:14] <Slart> Doofy: do you have a support question?
[20:14] <cowguru2000> Slart: he's a troll
[20:14] <Slart> Doofy: this it the ubuntu support channel.. there's #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics
[20:14] <Flannel> cowguru2000: Dont be rude
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: I've not succeeded personally. It seems to happen when folks set a keyring password and I get round by using wicd which just connects
[20:15] <rui> greezmunkey:\\BARBARA-PC\Lexmark1
[20:15] <jukkaar> so I have to read 30 minutes to get it working ?!
[20:15] <jukkaar> sudo -> unknown command
[20:15] <dominicdinada> greezmunkey:  you can also access printer by ip also
[20:15] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: I will try this
[20:15] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: I have another problem, which is when I wakeup from sleep the laptop, the mouse cursor is invisible but I can still move this.  The only way to fix this is by going ctrl+alt+f1 and back ctrl+alt+f7.  How do I fix this without doing that?
[20:15] <cowguru2000> Flannel: How was I being rude? all slart has contributed here is profanity
[20:16] <Doofy> No one knows Russian language?
[20:16] <guysoft22> ActionParsnip, i am talking to a computer illiterate person that i can only send commands to the terminal via gmail.. so edit will not help
[20:16] <alexxio> hi, if i have a router with firewall disabled, and 2 PCs...if i install vncserver and run it, i can link from the external network to the vncserver or should i do port mapping?? please answer a moment
[20:16] <greezmunkey> rui: ok, so put BARBARA-PC\Lexmark1 in the smb printer box, see wghat it does.
[20:16] <SwedeMike> !ru | Doofy
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: log a bug. Again its more hibernate woes which I have personally avoided
[20:16] <dominicdinada> jukkaar: you cant get into terminal from the normal boot  ?
[20:16] <Flannel> Doofy: No, this channel is english only.  And if you're looking to chat, again, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:16] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: I use suspend not hibernate
[20:16] <datroubler> hello I have a problem since 10.4: if I plug in my earphones, the laptop speakers didn't mute
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: same pain
[20:17] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: what should I do instead?
[20:17] <jukkaar> no
[20:17] <greezmunkey> dominicdinada: we haven't had to go there yet, the shared printer is on a box that will get it's ip via dhcp, so trying smb for now.
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: imho not worth it
[20:17] <guysoft22> ActionParsnip, their distro died from a karmic upgrade, i got them booted with internet to a livecd, now i need to get x11vnc working so i can vnc to them and fix the problem, their initrd is not working (some mountall symbol error)
[20:17] <jukkaar> only grub rescue appears and error:file not found over it
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: use your workaround and log a bug. Maybe there's already a bug logged and a fix
[20:17] <dominicdinada> jukkaar: can you boot from the live drive and get into sudo
[20:17] <rui> greezmunkey:he ask for drivers to the printer to choose
[20:17] <PeterNL> How do I install X 1.7.x or 1.8.x un Ubuntu 9.04? xorg-edgers only provides 1.6.3.
[20:17] <Doofy> А девченки есть тут ?
[20:17] <dominicdinada> jukkaar: er terminal
[20:18] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: hmmm how weird. Didn't this happen before?
[20:18] <Beyecixramd> Doofy: English, please...
[20:18] <Flannel> Doofy: English only here, thanks.
[20:18] <Doofy> A tranny is here?
[20:18] <ShawnRisk> ActionParsnip: there is a bug logged with no solution
[20:18] <Black_Phantom> What is faster, LXDE or XFCE ?
[20:18] <mataks> i just upgraded from karmic to lucid.. and now everytime i boot i can't see a boot screen or boot logo instead i see  a tiny distorted text at the top of my screen which is impossible to read.. help please
[20:18] <dominicdinada> !russian | doofy
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Guysoft: I don't think the vnc server will be running if they are getting that sort of error
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Shawnrisk: then log it
[20:18] <jukkaar> unknown coomand "er"
[20:18] <Beyecixramd> mataks: upgrades are not the way to do it... I recommend you to do a fresh install...
[20:18] <greezmunkey> rui: that's good so far, here's that hard part - see if there is a driver installed that works for *any* lexmark, you may have to try more than one, if your's isn't specifically listed.
[20:18] <Flannel> Doofy: This channel is for Ubuntu support only, and in english only.  Please respect that.
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> Black_phantom: lxde + openbox (lxde'as default wm) hands down
[20:19] <rui> greezmunkey:ok
[20:19] <cowguru2000> Flannel: you see?
[20:19] <jukkaar> cannot boot from usb
[20:19] <alexxio> hi, if i have a router with firewall disabled, and 2 PCs...if i install vncserver and run it, i can link from the external network to the vncserver or should i do port mapping?? please answer a moment
[20:19] <dominicdinada> jukkaar: reread what i said to reboot from the live drive and get into terminal
[20:19] <greezmunkey> rui: I say hard, it's really just rinse and repeat stuff.
[20:19] <cowguru2000> Hey all! How do I create a user that won't show up on the login screen picker?
[20:20] <jukkaar> had windows on used unetbootin to get the iso on usb and then restartet to boot from usb
[20:20] <mataks> Beyecixramd,  but i don't want to do a fresh install.. im Happy with my settings, configuration and the looks of my desktop now
[20:20] <Doofy> Flannel Ok
[20:20] <Beyecixramd> mataks: theres a way to not to lose your data
[20:20] <painkiller> hi
[20:20] <PeterNL> How do I install xorg-server 1.7.x or 1.8.x on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit? xorg-edgers only provides 1.6.3.
[20:20] <mataks> Beyecixramd,  how?
[20:20] <alpha> My computer just upgraded stuff. E.g., firefox was upgraded to "Namoroka-pre". Is this part of an official upgrade or was this due to a 3rd part ppa?
[20:20] <Beyecixramd> mataks: copy your /home folder to an external drive, and when reinstalling, once in the desktop, copy that folder back in
[20:21] <Gryllida> is there a website which contains all the manuals ubuntu users can get in Terminal via "man <something>"?
[20:21] <Beyecixramd> mataks: next time, please make a separate /home partition with about 90% of your disk space in order to avoid losing data or having to move settings and such...
[20:21] <Black_Phantom> Gryllida, help.ubuntu.com :/
[20:21] <mataks> Beyecixramd, ok thank. i may try that in the future
[20:21] <PeterNL> Gryllida: and http://linux.die.net/man/
[20:21] <Slart> Gryllida: there are many sites on the net with man pages.. I don't know of one that has ubuntu specific pages though.. but they are mostly the same regardless of distro
[20:21] <sh1ny> Beyecixramd, i'd suggest using lvm instead of 90% /home
[20:21] <Lasivian> anyone have any experience with ad-hoc mode and the ath5k or madwifi drivers?
[20:21] <sh1ny> that's just me tho :)
[20:22] <Salvad1> Hello. Is there some way to set the system to not ask for a password after I resume the computer from Sleep mode?
[20:22] <ciel> Hello all, i've just installed Ubunu lucid , but eeem I can't have the propriated drivers for my asus graphic card , can some ome nelp me ?
[20:22] <Beyecixramd> sh1ny: lvm?
[20:22] <Flannel> Gryllida, Slart: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/l
[20:22] <Doofy> A chat you can talk for free themes?
[20:22] <ciel> help*
[20:22] <sh1ny> yes , lvm
[20:22] <Flannel> Gryllida: er, minus the l
[20:22] <sh1ny>  :)
[20:22] <Slart> Flannel: ahh.. should have guessed =) thanks
[20:22] <sh1ny> you can find it on the advanced cd when installing or you can install it via apt-get later, tho you will have a hard time converting the partitions later
[20:23] <PeterNL> How do I install xorg-server 1.7.x or 1.8.x on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit? xorg-edgers only provides 1.6.3. Can I just use the lucid version of xorg-edgers, or will I break things?
[20:23] <Gryllida> Flannel, that's right what I was looking for
[20:23] <sh1ny> PeterNL, it will break things
[20:23] <sh1ny> PeterNL, why not upgrade to lucid ?
[20:23] <Beyecixramd> sh1ny: no, i mean, why lvm? i find having a /boot a / and a /home partition is enough
[20:24] <PeterNL> sh1ny: I don't have the time/space to do that.
[20:24] <painkiller> hi
[20:24] <sh1ny> Beyecixramd, because when you advised him to use 90% for home, he will end up pretty badly depending on the size of his disks and the amount of software he installs
[20:24] <celeste> hello, how can i know who is in one channel without coming into that channel? THANKS
[20:24] <olskolirc> which firefox stable do I wan for Lucid on this page I see several https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable/+packages
[20:24] <painkiller> helloo
[20:25] <rocket161> celeste: Use the friend's list
[20:25] <PeterNL> sh1ny: I more or less screwed my partitions and drive space years ago, but I'm too lazy to fix that... So how do I put 9.04 on steroids? :D
[20:25] <asds> maliii
[20:25] <celeste> rocket161 how is that??
[20:25] <sh1ny> PeterNL, well there isn't an easy way to install the xorg 1.7 on 9.04, not as far as i know :(
[20:25] <Beyecixramd> sh1ny: hmm... LVM allows you to dynamically set up partition sizes? didn't know that..
[20:25] <rocket161> celeste: Which software are you using? Xchat?
[20:25] <celeste> yes
[20:25] <sh1ny> Beyecixramd, yes it does

[20:26] <asds> mnoo qko
[20:26] <cowguru2000> Hey everyone, is there any way to prevent a username from showing up at the login screen? For example, root doesn't show up in the username picker at the login screen. How do I make it so that the same applies to specific other uses?
[20:26] <sh1ny> Beyecixramd,  you can resize up live, and you can shrink also if it's not mounted

[20:29] <caac_> !ru
[20:29] <rocket16> celeste: Did you see that Window menu? I hope you did, then click on it, and select "Friend's list",
[20:29] <duffydack> BlueEagle, I`m using the Disk Utility bundled with Lucid....
[20:29] <Oer> !ops
[20:29] <Beyecixramd> for gor's sake...
[20:29] <Gryllida> what
[20:29] <olskolirc> firefor 3.6.3 crashing on Kubuntu Lucid onetinsoldier
[20:29] <Beyecixramd> god's*
[20:29] <sh1ny> btw Flannel , he was cursing you all and swearing in bulgarian :)
[20:29] <alpicola> DCGstudios: Yes.
[20:29] <Gryllida> command abuse? what;s up?
[20:29] <sh1ny> was kinda hard to ignore >.>
[20:30] <Beyecixramd> sh1ny: who cares? i didn't get offended, for example :D
[20:30] <onetinsoldier> olskolirc: oh. don't know. mine doesn't crash or anything at all
[20:30] <Flannel> sh1ny: Yeah, I had my suspicions, was trying to google
[20:30] <dominicdinada> olskolirc: reinstall maybe
[20:30] <PeterNL> sh1ny: I should, but I more or less have way to much bullshit (iso's, VM's, souce trees, etc...) and no seperate partitoons and still using ext2 and having a dualboot with windows. That's way too scary, but it works... for now...
[20:30] <sh1ny> Beyecixramd, i know you didn't, no one did, except for my national pride :F
[20:30] <olskolirc> onetinsoldier, is this an additive or the whole firefox package?
[20:30] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: got a second bud
[20:30] <SwedeMike> sh1ny: google translate thought it was uzbeki
[20:30] <cowguru2000> Hey everyone, is there any way to prevent a username from showing up at the login screen? For example, root doesn't show up in the username picker at the login screen. How do I make it so that the same applies to specific other users? Is there a group I should add them to?
[20:31] <sh1ny> SwedeMike, hehe yea, bulgarian often gets confused with other languages :)
[20:31] <sh1ny> PeterNL, well i am not afraid of reinstalling
[20:31] <onetinsoldier> olskolirc: it's not exactly the whole firefox package really. if you look at on the page to the link i gave you, it has a lot of dependencies
[20:31] <dominicdinada> !users
[20:31] <olskolirc> ok onetinsoldier
[20:31] <olskolirc> thanks

[20:32] <ne7work> how to configure proftpd?
[20:32] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: it's odd, it keeps automatically reconnecting in managed even when I specify "ifconfig wlan0 down"
[20:32] <jamil_1> hello, apt-get is not working it says it  proxy authentication failed even though I have set the http_proxy variable properly because I can wget. I dont know what happened it was working few days ago
[20:32] <sh1ny> PeterNL, Lost my comp twice this year, one time BEFORE lucid and one time AFTER that :F, had to reinstall my windows both times and 9.10 at first then 10.04 once again
[20:32] <duffydack> BlueEagle, ugh.. I got an error "Error starting job: Failed to execute child process. "cryptsetup" (No such file or directory)"
[20:32] <onetinsoldier> olskolirc: but perhaps i could say, yes, it's an entire firefox package
[20:32] <sh1ny> Cybe-life ?
[20:32] <greezmunkey> rui: look here, there are some links for lexmark drivers here: http://www.linux.com/learn/answers/2-drivers/379-lexmark-2600-printer-does-not-work-on-ubuntu-910-any-suggestions
[20:32] <guntbert> for all who tried to guess a) a language and b) a language code for ubottu: please check if your code is successful in a private window with ubottu (try /msg ubottu !bg in this case)
[20:33] <PeterNL> Bye all!
[20:33] <Mekzholan> where is defined what should be started as display manager (or asked differently: where do I define that my X programm should be started directly after boot, w/o a display and a a window manager...)?
[20:33] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: hello, what's up?
[20:33] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: Are you using network manager?
[20:33] <sh1ny> bye PeterNL
[20:33] <ne7work> please someone help me to configure proftpd?
[20:33] <sh1ny> ne7work, fire up ?
[20:33] <sandking> anyone use Mac keyboards here?
[20:33] <Flannel> cowguru2000: http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.14/overview.html Section 2.9 goes into detail about it, including a way you can specify the users to show up in the face browser
[20:33] <sh1ny> ne7work, what's the problem with proftpd ?
[20:33] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: yeah, just realized that, I should shutoff the wireless there
[20:33] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: to mount a /media/meinna    drive i just need to add /media/meinna                      in the fstab right ?
[20:33] <cowguru2000> Flannel: thank you very much!
[20:33] <Flannel> ne7work: What's your use-case for FTP?
[20:34] <sh1ny> Flannel, i was first ! :P
[20:34] <ne7work> Flannel what?
[20:34] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: or, you can add the wireless interface to /etc/network/interfaces, then restart networking - network manager will then ignore it.
[20:34] <sh1ny> ne7work, explain the problem you have configuring proftpd
[20:34] <BlueEagle> duffydack: Seems you're missing cryptsetup.
[20:34] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: i mean this is mounting in the fstab at start but that is how to add it right
[20:34] <duffydack> BlueEagle, guess it needs installing (it really shouldnt offer the option if its not installed.. )
[20:34] <Flannel> ne7work: Are you only going to be using it for personal use? or is this a production FTP server? or what?
[20:34] <ne7work> i install proftpd on ubuntu server edition and now how to use it?
[20:34] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: i haven't configured an fstab in a very long time
[20:34] <sh1ny> ne7work, it just works when you install it
[20:35] <sh1ny> ne7work, using the system users and their home directories
[20:35] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: there's more than just one entry one a line though
[20:35] <ne7work> sh1ny what username and password to use?
[20:35] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: i have read the how tos but it is kinda jibberish and figured i would get a simple answer
[20:35] <Beyecixramd> what are all those floodbots anyway?
[20:35] <ne7work> sh1ny how to set directory
[20:35] <sh1ny> ne7work, the ones you log in with
[20:35] <dominicdinada> Beyecixramd: protecting the channel from floods
[20:35] <ne7work> wtf
[20:35] <ne7work> how?
[20:35] <sh1ny> ne7work, it uses your home directory
[20:35] <Condoulo> I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and I now get GRUB Error 17 and can't boot into anything but a LiveCD now. =/
[20:35] <Beyecixramd> dominicdinada: why more than one?
[20:35] <guntbert> ne7work: you might get more answers in #ubuntu-server
[20:35] <dafreak> Hello folks. I'm hoping that somebody can help me with my issue in connecting my Sony Vaio laptop to my WPA secured network. Laptop sees the network just fine and will connect it if I change it to no encryption but for obvious reasons I don't want to leave it that way. If I try and connect it just keeps prompting for my password over and over again. This is on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, any ideas?
[20:35] <sh1ny> ne7work, proftpd by default uses the system users and password
[20:35] <guntbert> !wtf | ne7work
[20:36] <Beyecixramd> dafreak: no more than 3 lines for a question, please, it's very confusing
[20:36] <Flannel> guntbert: Don't be obtuse, he's getting help here just fine.
[20:36] <dominicdinada> Beyecixramd: because mass floods can take bots offline so it is a redundant protection
[20:36] <Beyecixramd> dominicdinada: hmmm wow...
[20:36] <AhmedBH> hi, i just download ATI's update by synaptic and i can't set my graphic as EXTRA ? Why
[20:36] <Jordan_U> Condoulo: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[20:36] <BlueEagle> duffydack: I would agree that it should automatically staisfy any dependencies if possible. Ie. automatically install cryptsetup instead of throwing an error.
[20:36] <datroubler> Beyecixramd not with 9.10, since 10.4 I have the problem with the earphones, i can't find any option to mute them
[20:36] <Beyecixramd> dominicdinada: but that's like a DDoS, right? you can't do that with a single computer
[20:36] <rangua> hi, quick question. where is the configuration options for the visual effects? i want to set up the cube
[20:36] <Condoulo> Jordan_U: I have 3 SATA HDDs hooked up. 2 with NTFS (one for WIndows, one for storage), and the other w/ EXT4/SWAP.
[20:36] <Flannel> ne7work: What sh1ny is trying to say isthat you just fire up your FTP client, and log in with your normal users.
[20:37] <dafreak> Ok short version. Ubuntu 10.04, Sony Vaio laptop, will not connect to WPA secured network but will connect to unencrypted. Ideas?
[20:37] <sh1ny> ne7work, use the username and password with which you log in into the server ( like from ssh from example or in the console )
[20:37] <greezmunkey> dafreak: you can try to narrow down the cause, in a terminal: tail -f /var/log/syslog - see what it is failing on.
[20:37] <dominicdinada> Beyecixramd: it is better seeing it scroll floodbots than script kiddies or idiots take control of the channel with spam and flood users offline
[20:37] <ne7work> sh1ny where i create usernames and passwords for login with ftp client?
[20:37] <guntbert> Flannel: I beg your pardon? what is your issue? don't call me names please
[20:37] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: hmmm the PulseAudio panel should give you the option to automute the speakers
[20:37] <Jordan_U> Condoulo: Then grub was installed to a different drive than the one you are booting from, try changing the boot order
[20:37] <sh1ny> ne7work, use "adduser" in the command line
[20:37] <Beyecixramd> dominicdinada: doubtless, yes
[20:37] <dominicdinada> Beyecixramd: you can do it with one computer there is war scripts that makes tons of users that join and flood and take down channels
[20:37] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: i'll ask the obvious question... did you reboot after installing it?
[20:38] <ne7work> sh1ny for proftpd
[20:38] <datroubler> Beyecixramd: have I to install it?
[20:38] <ne7work> not for linux
[20:38] <sh1ny> ne7work, as i said
[20:38] <AhmedBH> Yes actually did...
[20:38] <rangua> dafreak: try installing the wpasupplicant package or the wpagui.. haven't tried them myself, but maybe that'll help
[20:38] <sh1ny> ne7work, Proftpd uses the SYSTEM users
[20:38] <sh1ny> ne7work, use the username and password that you use to log in into the server
[20:38] <datroubler> Beyecixramd: how can i launch pulse audio?
[20:38] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: ok, roger. what kind of video card do you have?
[20:39] <jamil_1> rangua: system>preference>appearance visual effects tab though u better install compiz config settings manager
[20:39] <AhmedBH> I have ATI's delicated and it was working damn fine @_@
[20:39] <ne7work> sh1ny and how i can choose directory /var/www ?
[20:39] <Beyecixramd> dominicdinada: bah... stupid script kiddies...
[20:39] <rangua> thanks. i was actually looking for the compiz config manager
[20:39] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: try renaming the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and then running the following command... sudo aitconfig --initial
[20:39] <sandking> can anyone explain me where the hell someone see fn key in this keyboard https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppleKeyboard ?
[20:39] <AhmedBH> just a second
[20:39] <dominicdinada> /var/www is for the webserver :/
[20:39] <sh1ny> ne7work, by default you are not locked to your home directory, you can just navigate to /var/www
[20:39] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: PulseAudio is the system Ubuntu uses for playing sound. just like DirectSound in Windows, for games. To launch its settings panel click the speaker icon in the upper left corner of your screen
[20:39] <sh1ny> ne7work, or you can set the homedirectory of the user to /var/www
[20:40] <sandking> because wiki is referring to this and i don't see it and i don't see it on mine
[20:40] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: fi you do that, then you'll need to restart X windows afterwards
[20:40] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: or just go to System > Settings > Audio or something similar
[20:40] <onetinsoldier> if*
[20:40] <Flannel> sandking: next to home
[20:40] <duffydack> BlueEagle, made it, ext4 and encrypted.  now when i plug it in to test, and put in password i get "Error unlocking device: cryptsetup exited with exit code 239: Device udisks-luks-uuid-596eb203-6f4b-4326-8b3a-099f05f8ae8d-uid1000 already exists."  a file there does exist.. this is bothersome.
[20:40] <sandking> Flannel: thank you eagle eye!!! :]
[20:40] <Flannel> sandking: (where insert would be on a regular keyboard)
[20:40] <datroubler> Beyecixramd: ok but i cant find this option
[20:40] <Doofy> All the While!!!!
[20:40] <Doofy> wish all and more!!! and lastly wanted to ask (what do you now time?)
[20:40] <AhmedBH> theres nothing like that in that folder
[20:41] <Scott_1> Hi, the fan on my computer goes at full speed in Ubuntu and is very noisy. How can I get it to slow down?
[20:41] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: ok, then run that command and restart X Windows
[20:41] <sandking> Flannel: I got this keyboard about 4 months and i didn't saw it as on laptop keyboards fn key is next to ctrl!
[20:41] <jamil_1> proxy! apt is not working behind proxy. I have set the http_proxy variable still I am getting error 407 proxy authentication required.
[20:41] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: try to play with the output settings, maybe there you have a way to mute it or not, otherwise, i don't know
[20:41] <AhmedBH> sudo aitconfig --initial ?
[20:41] <sandking> Flannel: so really thank you
[20:41] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: yes
[20:41] <AhmedBH> as # ?
[20:41] <onetinsoldier> sudo = root
[20:42] <AhmedBH> okay just a second
[20:42] <youngblood> I'm trying to reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source, but it is in a restricted repository. I add the pointer to the restricted repository, but still no go. So, can someone tell me what repository I need to add to sources.list? I'm using 9.04.
[20:42] <datroubler> Beyecixramd: i can only chose between HDMI and normal output
[20:42] <AhmedBH> sudo: aitconfig: command not found
[20:42] <sh1ny> aitconfig != aticonfig
[20:42] <Doofy> 23: 42 in Russia
[20:42] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: that could be an ACPI problem. And if it's that, it can't be easily solved because of Microsoft vendors lock-ins
[20:42] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: sudo = run as root... sudo -i     take root :)
[20:42] <ne7work> sh1ny i have ftp user created when i install proftpd
[20:42] <Scott_1> Oh, I see.
[20:42] <AhmedBH> i did but same result                   sudo: aitconfig: command not found
[20:42] <ne7work> how to change password of this user?
[20:43] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: perhaps i made a typo as pointed out be sh1ny ... aticonfig
[20:43] <Beyecixramd> datroubler: no idea then, sorry. Try asking in the Ubuntu Forums, posting screenshots of your audio settins and such
[20:43] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: still not connecting when I use iwconfig to force a connection
[20:43] <sh1ny> ne7work, this one is for the daemon to run, you can't log in with it
[20:43] <Scott_1> The fan gets very annoying after a while, but in Windows it slows down to a gentle hum.
[20:43] <dominicdinada> Lasivian: are you using WEP ?
[20:43] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: if you have root prompt, then you don't need the sudo
[20:43] <ne7work> sh1ny what's the password for ftp user
[20:43] <AhmedBH> No supported adapters detected
[20:43] <AhmedBH> @_@
[20:43] <Lasivian> dominicdinada: no security
[20:43] <cheryl> Hi can anyone help me with installing java on Karmic plse?
[20:43] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: what command did you issue?
[20:43] <datroubler> Beyecixramd: ok thanks
[20:43] <sh1ny> Flannel, i give up >.>
[20:43] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: what manufacturer is your PC?
[20:44] <dominicdinada> Lasivian: sudo dhcp  ??? ???
[20:44] <AhmedBH> Now what
[20:44] <Scott_1> Asus I believe
[20:44] <Lasivian> greezmunkey" iwconfig wlan0 essid "LasivianWiFi"
[20:44] <dafreak> greezmunkey: It looks like the reason it's failing is a wpa_supplicant: Association request to the driver failed
[20:44] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: i don't know
[20:44] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: did it come with Windows Vista?
[20:44] <An_Ony_Moose> is there a program that can stream any GStreamer-compatible streams to a v4l device?
[20:44] <Lasivian> iwconfig shows ad-hoc mode, network manager has wifi disabled which I assume is just in Gnome
[20:44] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: did you tell it what mode you need?
[20:44] <Flannel> ne7work: The credentials (user/password) for logging in via FTP are the same as the credentials that you would use if you were logging in from a keyboard at the machine
[20:44] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: what does... lshw -C display ...show?
[20:44] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: Ah, ok.
[20:45] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd: Yes.
[20:45] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, it's Asus M2N-SLI AM2
[20:45] <AhmedBH> shows about printing and html xml etc
[20:45] <AhmedBH> just a minute
[20:45] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: are you sure it's the mainboard/cpu fan and not the GPU(Graphic card) fan? btw, is it a desktop?
[20:46] <AhmedBH> i just downloaded a driver and i am sure it will work :) should i restat X or my PC ?
[20:46] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd: I'm not sure where the noise comes from exactly to be honest. It is a desktop.
[20:46] <Beyecixramd> AhmedBH: try restarting X, if not, your entire PC
[20:47] <AhmedBH> BRB
[20:47] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: could you try to put the mouse behind the graphics card in windows and linux to find out if its a GPU problem?
[20:47] <JayX> Hey!  How can I compress / .rar a 6GB video into parts so i can get it to fit on a FAT harddrive (4gb max files size)  ??
[20:47] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: being that what you are trying to do is apparantly incmpatible with network manager, i would add the wifi interface to /etc/network/interfaces and restart networking and try again. It *may* work. Check 'man interfaces' for details.
[20:47] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: nVidia recently had problems with fans on their GPUs, so...
[20:47] <Lasivian> I'm sure the wireless network is good, my other netbook connects just fine with a different chipset
[20:48] <Lasivian> in Gnome and without any iwconfig commands
[20:48] <SwedeMike> JayX: rar -v<size>[k|b|f]
[20:48] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: did i say mouse? god.. i meant hand
[20:48] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: I though you wanted ad-hoc mode, is there an access point available?
[20:49] <Scott_1> Yeah, I was wondering what you meant.
[20:49] <JayX> SwedeMike,  do i need to have anything installed?
[20:49] <Scott_1> :)
[20:49] <Ignor> hi all, have a problemm with shutdown PC on ubuntu 9. HDD, Video, devices are shutdown, but cooler on proc still working, and power lite on box working..
[20:49] <SwedeMike> JayX: yes, you have to install rar
[20:49] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: i have lost my mind somewhere... Australia i guess
[20:49] <JayX> SwedeMike,  sudo apt-get install rar  ????
[20:50] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, I just opened the hardware options and a message popped up to say the nvidia graphics driver isn't installed.
[20:50] <SwedeMike> JayX: "apt-cache search rar" will give you the package name.
[20:50] <Scott_1> Maybe installing them will fix the problem...
[20:50] <SwedeMike> JayX: hm, that gave a lot of packages.
[20:50] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: maybe that's the problem, try to install it and let me know the results :)
[20:50] <Slart> !rar
[20:50] <dafreak> greezmunkey: So with that error message do I need to try and enable debugging on the ipw2200 driver that's loaded for my wireless NIC?
[20:50] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: but that's hardcoding wifi to a specific access point, right?
[20:50] <Ignor> any Ideas?...
[20:51] <JayX> SwedeMike,  i see :S... thats alot of packages
[20:51] <SwedeMike> JayX: so yes, apt-get install rar
[20:51] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, downloading now
[20:51] <greezmunkey> dafreak: check back a few pages, there was a suggestion regarding downloading wpasupplicant something or another...
[20:51] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: do you have Ubuntu 10.04?
[20:51] <jukkaar> ubuntu is still userunfriendly nerd os
[20:51] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, 9.10
[20:52] <JayX> SwedeMike,  Urg... a few "packages have unmet dependencies" :S what does that mean?
[20:52] <SwedeMike> JayX: I have no idea. google for it.
[20:52] <Beyecixramd> jukkaar is still userunfriendly troll :)
[20:52] <dafreak> greezmunkey: I Don't see anything like that in the chatlog between my reply & you just stating it but I'll look on synaptic and see what I can find
[20:52] <Anonymous_> is there something similar to cheat engine on Ubuntu
[20:52] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: i encourage you to update (but do a clean install)
[20:52] <Slart> Anonymous_: nope
[20:53] <JayX> SwedeMike,  ok.. and as for the " rar -v<size>[k|b|f] "   <size> is how large i want each part to be made into?? in megabites?
[20:53] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: not necessarily, if you have an access point, use it. Network manager can easily handle that for you. Do this. Undo what you did in iwconfig, and then in network manager set up for your access point. You can add other access points (networks) later as you need them.
[20:53] <SwedeMike> JayX: man rar
[20:53] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, what's better about 10.04?
[20:53] <greezmunkey> dafreak: I'll page back and find it...
[20:53] <Slart> Anonymous_: I think there could be .. if someone wanted to do it.. but afaik noone has wanted it bad enough to write it
[20:53] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: nouveau, for example, it's a new open source driver for nVidia :)
[20:53] <JayX> SwedeMike,  thanks :D
[20:53] <SwedeMike> JayX: you can use whatever prefix you are most comfortable with.
[20:54] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: apart from faster startup times, and improved speed
[20:54] <Slart> !info scanmem
[20:54] <Beyecixramd> Scott_1: but it's all up to you, obviously :)
[20:54] <Scott_1> I don't really use my graphics card at all.
[20:54] <GoremanX> getting some weird "load average" numbers using Ubuntu 10.04, can someone help me diagnose?
[20:54] <Slart> Anonymous_: and just because I said that I found something =).. haven't tried it though but there it is ^^^
[20:55] <Slart> GoremanX: what's weird about them?
[20:55] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: added it to interfaces but i'm still seeing no connection when telling it to connect from commandline
[20:55] <GoremanX> I have Ubuntu 10.04 setup as a test web hosting server that I'm evaluating for migrating our sites to. Our current server is Ubuntu 9.10. But this new server, while sitting idle, is giving me some strange load numbers (when I check "uptime"): load average: 0.76, 0.70, 0.66. The old 9.10 server never shows numbers that high
[20:55] <greezmunkey> dafreak: --> rangua> dafreak: try installing the wpasupplicant package or the wpagui.. haven't  tried them myself, but maybe that'll help
[20:55] <Scott_1> Beyecixramd, I'm happy with the startup times / speed I currently have.  I was quite pleased with the new features last time I upgraded Ubuntu so I might give it a whirl in the future.
[20:56] <GoremanX> it's a single core system
[20:56] <dafreak> greezmunkey: Synaptic already shows that wpasupplicant is installed, version 0.6.9-3, I'll try installing wpagui though
[20:56] <soona86> hi everyone?
[20:56] <onetinsoldier> hello
[20:56] <soona86> how can i join xubuntu room? i'm so new at this
[20:57] <onetinsoldier> try /join #xubuntu
[20:57] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: Here's the thing - you asked for ad-hoc support, not plain jane wifi with access points. Put your interfaces file back, and restart networking. iow, clear all that out - you'll be using network namager instead!
[20:57] <Lasivian> ok, done
[20:57] <Lasivian> I just want some sign it can do what i'm asking any which way, heh
[20:58] <Scott_1> The Ubuntu 'suspend' option doesn't work on my PC.
[20:58] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: it's all good!
[20:58] <Lasivian> i've gone over the other netbook with a different wireless card and it works fine
[20:58] <rui> greezmunkey:i pass on the lexmark site and donwload the drivers for linux but there is a n error , what they have is for Red Hat
[20:58] <cinoski> Witam
[20:58] <xomp> how can I verify that there is no PHP running on ubuntu?
[20:58] <guntbert> !pl | cinoski
[20:58] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: in network manager, is there an "auto {essid}" connection listed?
[20:59] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: I should say in the wireless tab.
[20:59] <Lasivian> for the ad-hoc i'm trying to connect to?
[20:59] <Scott_1> ok, driver installed, back in a bit
[21:00] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: no, ad-hoc is for connecting to another pc with a wifi card in it, not access point.
[21:00] <joelpet> is it possible to disable the auto adjustment of the microphone input volume, in lucid?
[21:00] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: ad-hoc vs. access point network: completely differant.
[21:01] <Lasivian> yes, but still the network manager is able to see the ad-hoc device on my other netbook
[21:02] <Scott__1> Holy crap, it worked!
[21:02] <Lasivian> I had to create it from scratch on the ath5k netbook because it doesn't se eit at all
[21:02] <Scott__1> Beyecixramd: it worked, thanks so much!
[21:02] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: hmmm, that may be, but only because that netbook has ad-hoc mode set. Is there a shared access point both pc can connect to?
[21:02] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: yes
[21:02] <ori> Can Someone Help me INstall MTGO through winetricks?
[21:03] <Beyecixramd> Scott__1: so it was a GPU problem :) im glad to see it worked
[21:03] <rui> greezmunkey:can you help me with another problem, i have aMSN and have difficult to conect the web cam to speak with MSN messenger on windows can you helpe me
[21:03] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: there you go, use that!
[21:03] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: currently there is, i'm trying to set it up to use my cellphone when we aren't here
[21:03] <Lasivian> I thought you were asking for troubleshooting purposes
[21:03] <greezmunkey> rui: that's above my paygrade - I don't do sound or social networking.
[21:03] <SwedBo> does anybody have HP DV series here ?
[21:03] <rui> ah ok
[21:03] <rui> greezmunkey: ok
[21:04] <Scott__1> I didn't think it had done anything but just before the logon screen opened the horrible *WHIRRRR* changed to a hummmm :)
[21:04] <mcl0vin> [18566.584863] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e001 <keycode>' to make it known.
[21:04] <mcl0vin> [18580.492507] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xd9 on isa0060/serio0).
[21:05] <Scott__1> Ooh, and the driver does some graphic stuff as well. It has some cool vista like animations when I alt+tab
[21:05] <mcl0vin> ^^ what are these , i see them alot in me dmseg, are they related to my MS wireless keyboard? is that something i need to fix
[21:05] <rui> greezmunkey:i know now that Lexmark are doing Printers with Tux  sign for Linux, Thanks to you
[21:06] <rui> can anyone help me , i have aMSN and have difficult to connect the web cam to speak with MSN messenger on windows
[21:06] <zoidfarb> Does anyone know if there's a setting in bash to change it to show **** for passwords, instead of just not echoing anything at all? (I have a lot of dumb users who freak out when NOTHING shows up as they type)
[21:06] <dafreak> greezmunkey: I tried using wpa_gui but it is not seeing my wireless network card (or any card for that matter), no errors in the syslog about it either
[21:06] <c0ntr0lpunk> hey i need help
[21:07] <mcl0vin> !ask
[21:07] <c0ntr0lpunk> whenever i unplug my laptop charger ubuntu freezes and i cant start ubuntu without my laptop charger being plugged in
[21:07] <ori> Can Someone Help me Install MTGOIII_Helper.exe with winetricks?
[21:08] <greezmunkey> Lasivian: so, you don't want to use the AP then - but you case seems to be that you can't run in ad-hoc mode with your adapter. By definition you are back to the AP.
[21:08] <Izinucs> rui: check messenger's help site.. you might need to open ports to your machine on your router
[21:08] <discozohan> should i use reiserFs for tmp directory ?
[21:08] <onetinsoldier> zoidfarb: i seriously doubt it. i think you'd have to change the source code in bash to do that, then recompile it and install your changed version
[21:08] <zoidfarb> c0ntr0lpunk, that sounds like a problem with ACPI events
[21:09] <c0ntr0lpunk> ok zoid do u know how to fix?
[21:09] <rui> Izinucs:thank you
[21:09] <zoidfarb> c0ntr0lpunk, sorry, but ACPI depends a lot on your particular bios/hardware. I would suggest googling for something like "ACPI <your laptop model> Ubuntu"
[21:10] <c0ntr0lpunk> ok
[21:11] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: yes, and i'm trying to figure out if it's the driver or the hardware which refuses to use the ad-hoc network
[21:11] <robertzaccour> every time my computer starts up, google chrome starts up, and its not selected in startup programs. how do i fix this?
[21:11] <Lasivian> greezmunkey: because I can't take the AP network with me in my pocket
[21:11] <c0ntr0lpunk> does anyone else no why my laptop freezes everytime i take off ac charger
[21:12] <mementomori> hi all
[21:12] <Slart> robertzaccour: does it open on any special page? or just the empty starting page?
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> hello
[21:12] <Lasivian> c0ntr0lpunk: did you boot it clean or is this only after resuming from suspend?
[21:12] <harry-houdini1> hello can anyone tell me what the command line secret to restart all networks in lucid is /etc/init.d/networking restart no longer works
[21:12] <robertzaccour> Slart, empty starting page
[21:13] <Izinucs> harry-houdini1: sudo service networking restart I think
[21:13] <mementomori> I'm getting an error while updating from karmic to lucid:
[21:13] <mementomori> Could not determine the upgrade
[21:13] <mementomori> An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
[21:13] <mementomori> E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[21:13] <FloodBot2> mementomori: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:13] <rui> Izinucs:how do i start with the web site they only speak about windows
[21:13]  * jpds watches mementomori get help in #ubuntu-uk.
[21:13] <robertzaccour> Slart, actually opens but there's nothing at the time because it opens before my wireless automatically connects
[21:13] <Lasivian> c0ntr0lpunk: second question is, do you have the lid closed when you unplug it?
[21:13] <Izinucs> rui: look for the ports that the different services for messenger use.. webcam, voice, file transfer etc.. the ports will be the same on linux
[21:13] <harry-houdini1> it says unknown instance when i run it
[21:14] <osmosis> my audio works on my laptop, but the headphone jack doesn't. Used to work before I upgraded.  lspci shows  Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400. Anyone seen this?
[21:14] <c0ntr0lpunk> to lasician: no i dont
[21:14] <Izinucs> rui: the same for amsn on linux that is.
[21:14] <lengend> When I type "linux /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdxY ro" I get "Error: No such disk".
[21:14] <c0ntr0lpunk> and also to lasivian: boot clean
[21:14] <Slart> robertzaccour: hmm.. it might be something else that wants to show you an url.. but I've never seen anything in ubuntu that acted that way..
[21:15] <Lasivian> c0ntr0lpunk: what happens when you shut it down and reboot on battery without having it plugged in?
[21:15] <zoidfarb> c0ntr0lpunk, does it sound like this might be your issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/535653
[21:15] <c0ntr0lpunk> it goes to login screen plays
[21:15] <lengend> nvm i think i got it
[21:15] <c0ntr0lpunk> sounds and freezes
[21:15] <onetinsoldier> lengend: :-)
[21:15] <c0ntr0lpunk> it goes to login screen and freezes
[21:16] <Zelenkooo> ubuntu channel . cool :D
[21:17] <Chak82> hello all
[21:17] <onetinsoldier> hi
[21:17] <Chak82> i have a problem with ubuntu 9.10
[21:18] <lengend> onetinsoldier I still get "file not found for hd0,1" and for (hd0,5" i get unknown filesystem
[21:18] <lengend> I got kernel problems :(
[21:18] <onetinsoldier> lengend: oh :(
[21:18] <tomAW_> Hi. what is the command to view ALL groups on ubuntu server? not just groups in use at the moment
[21:18] <Chak82> the recommendations in the banshee context pain always show a 1% similarity
[21:18] <syme> what do I do to fix a "Could not download all repository indexes" error when trying to update?
[21:18] <SwedeMike> TommyThaGun: what kind of groups? user groups? cat /etc/groups
[21:19] <Chak82> i was thinking that the data type is integer instead a log or double
[21:19] <Chak82> someone knows how can i change this configuration?
[21:19] <onetinsoldier> tomaw: well, one way, only way i know of right offhand is... cat /etc/groups
[21:19] <c0ntr0lpunk> ok lasvian im back sorry i unplugged charger and laptop froze please repeat any messges after my last message
[21:20] <Chak82> why can i see the user list of the right side of this xchat window?
[21:20] <Kuwanger> Well, my Ubuntu 8.04 -> Xubuntu 8.04 ("apt-get install xubuntu-desktop"; "apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop") -> Xubuntu 10.04 ("sudo ./cdupgrade.sh" on the Xubuntu 10.04 Alternative CD) turned out pretty nasty.  The OOM killer ended up being invoked at the dbus package installation and now the HD is unbootable.
[21:20] <Jenni0> Hello. I just messed something up on a Ubuntu server. I edited the /etc/sudoers file and removed my username. Now when I go to re-add it using "sudo nano /etc/sudoers" I can't!
[21:20] <guntbert> tomaw: getent group
[21:20] <rui> Izinucs:where do i start to see the ports , windowwss dont have that information
[21:21] <Izinucs> rui: hang on
[21:21] <todd_> HELP! can anyone walk me through installing a tar.gz file??
[21:21] <Slart> Jenni0: reboot, select the recovery mode in the grub boot menu.. then add your name back
[21:21] <calibre> Hi I was wondering why my memory keeps dropping when I type "free -m" on ubuntu, i am not downloading anything so idk why it keeps dropping,can you tell me why is this happening and what I can do to get it back up?
[21:21] <lengend> When I do this: "loopback loop0 /ubuntu/disks/root.disk" I get "file not found"
[21:21] <Slart> Jenni0: and I think you're supposed to use the "visudo" command to edit that file
[21:22] <gixgix> ok, i just did a fresh install of 10.4 on a dell d600. neither wireless or ethernet are working. any ideas on what to try next?
[21:22] <Jenni0> Slart: Can this be done via CLI? I have no GUI
[21:22] <onetinsoldier> todd_: i can try... don't know that it will be successful though ;-)
[21:22] <Slart> Jenni0: as it says on the third line .. This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root
[21:22] <Slart> Jenni0: yes
[21:22] <c0ntr0lpunk> hello im on a hp laptop with ubuntu 10.04 and when i unplug my charger ubuntu freezes
[21:22] <tarvid> any recommendations for capturing the video and audio I am watching on tvtime?
[21:22] <todd_> onetinsoldier: thanks
[21:22] <ori> Can Someone Help me Install MTGOIII_Helper.exe with winetricks?

[21:22] <DJ_HaMsTa> Resently installed 10.04 on a HP laptop. The keyboard is not functioning, only firefox opens with the mouse and keyboard buttons ctrl +alt+del are functioning. Any ideas ?
[21:22] <dafreak> Still working on my WPA issue, what would wpa_gui not showing any interfaces indicate?
[21:22] <onetinsoldier> todd_: sure
[21:22] <Jenni0> Slart: How to do this via CLI?
[21:23] <James-q> hi
[21:23] <Izinucs> rui: about 3/4's of the way down it article will mention the ports.. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457095.aspx
[21:23] <onetinsoldier> todd_: do you know how to use the command line?
[21:23] <todd_> i installed a theme pack, it is a tar.gz file. it cime with metacity, gtk, gdm, icons. it is loaded
[21:23] <calibre> Hi I was wondering why my memory keeps dropping when I type "free -m" on ubuntu, i am not downloading anything so idk why it keeps dropping,can you tell me why is this happening and what I can do to get it back up?
[21:23] <onetinsoldier> todd_: oh, a theme. ok
[21:24] <Izinucs> calibre: did you upgrade to 10.04 from 9.10?
[21:24] <robertzaccour> every time my computer starts up, google chrome starts up, and its not selected in startup programs. how do i fix this?
[21:24] <todd_> but i cant simply drag and drop it to my appearance>theme folder. or click on "install"
[21:24] <greezmunkey> calibre: http://www.linuxatemyram.com
[21:24] <calibre> Izinucs: 10l04
[21:24] <calibre> Izinucs: 10.04
[21:24] <onetinsoldier> todd_: what happens if you try and click on install?
[21:24] <Slart> Jenni0: "sudo reboot" to reboot.. you might have to press escape when the machine boots to see the grub menu (it should look something like this http://blog.hectorbenitez.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/grub.png ) then select the recovery mode.. you'll get another menu after a while where you can choose "root shell" or "root shell with networking", select the one you want and you'll get a command line where you're already root (so no sudo needed)
[21:24] <Izinucs> calibre: I asked if you did an upgrade from 9.10?
[21:24] <todd_> nothing, all windows just close
[21:24] <calibre> Izinucs: no
[21:25] <lengend> The best option to repair a kernel or grub or whatever is to use a live cd i am guesing?
[21:25] <Slart> Jenni0: then you change the sudoers file back (and now you know what command to use.. no sudo nano stuff)
[21:25] <Izinucs> calibre: have you looked at "top" or system monitor to see if any particular program is also eating your cpu?
[21:25] <Jenni0> Slart: How can I sudo reboot if I don't have sudo?
[21:25] <todd_> it is a tar.gz file, but when i extract it, it has several different tar.gz files in it
[21:25] <onetinsoldier> todd_: i don't know what's wrong there. it crashes the moment you click on the 'install' button?
[21:26] <calibre> Izinucs: No.
[21:26] <calibre> Izinucs: How do i check.
[21:26] <Slart> Jenni0: ah.. gotcha.. well.. do a Sysrq + REISUB then.. or just hit the power switch
[21:26] <syme> what do I do to fix a "Could not download all repository indexes" error when trying to update?
[21:26] <Jenni0> Slart: Im connected via SSH. The box is the other side of the world.. anyway this can be done?
[21:27] <Slart> Jenni0: oh.. not that I know of.. no
[21:27] <todd_> well no. i have already downloaded the file. when i go to appearance->themes->install, and choose the tar.gz file, it just closes out
[21:27] <dipu_> Hi when i play flash video sound is very low .. otherwise its fine ..any idea?
[21:27] <Izinucs> calibre: check that.. right mouse click the top bar and "Add".. in the new box look for system monitor and double click it.. a new icon will appear in the upper bar. click that once and it will open.. check "System" and click the CPU% column label to sort that column.. see if something is taking about 50% of your cpu
[21:27] <onetinsoldier> todd_: ahh, ok. so it just doesn't like the file. i see
[21:27] <AhmedBH> back
[21:28] <AhmedBH> actually
[21:28] <Slart> Jenni0: but perhaps someone else in the channel knows.. but mention that you're on a ssh link to a remote computer and can't reboot.. otherwise they'll just tell you the same thing I did
[21:28] <todd_> yeah. i have had that before, and there was a way that i could go through the terminal and install it that way
[21:28] <AhmedBH> onetinsoldier: i tried but i uninstall most of the drivers which should i download ? to make that ATI graphic card working ?
[21:28] <todd_> do you know a method like that?
[21:28] <onetinsoldier> todd_: well, you can unpack the file and see what is has in it. normally, the installer unpacks it to --> ~/.themes
[21:28] <Jenni0> I'm on a SSH session to a Ubuntu server and removed myself from /etc/sudoers by mistake. How can I solve this?
[21:30] <onetinsoldier> todd_: since this theme pack come with multiple themes and icon themes, you might need to install them separately or by hand... something like that
[21:30] <coz_> anyone here know if there is a netbook unity channel specific for that?
[21:30] <AhmedBH> Anyone here ?
[21:30] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: what was the output of lshw -C display? you ati video card(s) show ok in that?
[21:31] <todd_> hmm, ok. well only some of the files i can do that way. others like borders and gdm, i cannot
[21:31] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: you are running Lucid, correct?
[21:31] <fahd> hi
[21:31] <AhmedBH> Yes lucid
[21:31] <Izinucs> calibre: if there is a process eating the processor.. is it polkitd? if so I have a possible solution
[21:31] <fahd><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:31] <Izinucs> calibre: it eats ram at the same time
[21:31] <rui> Izinucs:thank you i See on AMSN that diasble the features of Video and audio because Microsoft change the ports.
[21:32] <onetinsoldier> todd_: roger. gdm in lucid is newer version and themes for previous versions don't work
[21:32] <calibre> Izinucs: What am I looking for? I see this thing giving me graph readings.
[21:32] <Hans_Henrik> the libboost version in the repo's are about a year and 3 versions old, time for an update? :p
[21:33] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: System --> Administration --> Hardware Drivers
[21:33] <calibre> Izinucs: I am in "resources"
[21:33] <AhmedBH> okay
[21:33] <Izinucs> calibre: in the new window? then you're looking at the "resources" tab.. click the processes tab
[21:33] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: will install the default 'fglrx' ati drivers
[21:33] <AhmedBH> it shows nothing
[21:33] <guntbert> Hans_Henrik: no developpers/packagers here - please file a bug
[21:33] <calibre> Izinucs: Ok then I look at what?
[21:33] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: ok, i ask again....
[21:33] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: what was the output of lshw -C display? you ati video card(s) show ok in that?
[21:33] <AhmedBH> No it doesnt detect
[21:34] <Hans_Henrik> guntbert: actually i think your wrong, but oki
[21:34] <AhmedBH> since i have install some ATI crystal center
[21:34] <AhmedBH> and some other related to graphic card
[21:34] <Izinucs> calibre: the column labeled CPU%.. click the label to sort that column.. and look a couple lines below for the % of cpu a process is taking
[21:35] <shaz> #openmoko
[21:35] <onetinsoldier> AhmedBH: ok, well i don't know. mine ati card show up fine in that command... description: VGA compatible controller: product: RV770 [Radeon HD 4850]
[21:35] <onetinsoldier> mine = my*
[21:36] <AhmedBH> Well too bad for me :) anyways thanks

[21:37] <DrGrov> I am eager to know how to get a working NeoGeo emulator to run on Ubuntu 10.04
[21:37] <calibre> Izinucs: Xorg and gnome system monitor just jumped to like 40 then back to 20 something.

[21:38] <Janhouse> any ideas?
[21:38] <Slart> DrGrov: I think installing older packages might work.. why not give it a try
[21:39] <Izinucs> calibre: there's a column for memory.. click that to sort from highest use to lowest.. what's the highest use process?
[21:39] <DrGrov> Slart, ok. how can i remove a older package if it is problems?
[21:39] <Shahz> hm
[21:39] <Slart> DrGrov: I think you can use apt-get purge once you've installed it
[21:39] <ubuntuCEO> hi guys, after i update some packages, my sound is not working
[21:39] <Slart> DrGrov: if that doesn't work you can always use "dpkg --remove"

[21:40] <calibre> Izinucs: firefoxbin

[21:41] <silverdrake11> Hi, I'm trying to optimize Ubuntu 10.04 for best audio playback. Does anyone here know what the "Profile:" options mean in Sounds/Hardware/ ?
[21:41] <Izinucs> calibre: how many tabs do you have open?
[21:41] <Izinucs> calibre: in firefox
[21:41] <calibre> Izinucs: 3
[21:41] <DrGrov> Slart, ok. will try that.
[21:42] <Izinucs> calibre: close 2 and then check the memory footprint
[21:42] <chrismsnz> Hey guys - is there a nice frontend for virtual machine management that uses KVM as a backend? Virtual-machine-manager doesn't quite do it for me :)
[21:42] <chrismsnz> or shall i just use oracle virtualbox/vmware
[21:42] <acicula> anything that frontends for libvirt?
[21:42] <nothingnow> Ok so i have been a Linux user for sometime now and i was messing around with Ubuntu 10.04 and put it were when you login it just brings up xterm and now i can not get it to go back to normal any suggestions?
[21:42] <c0rrupt0r> Hello I have installed xsane and sane to use my HP ScanJet 4600 flat bed scanner but it does not seem to find it, I am running Ubuntu 10.04 any ideas would be great

[21:42] <ubuntuCEO> Reading state information... Done
[21:42] <ubuntuCEO> E: Couldn't find package alsamixer
[21:42] <FloodBot2> ubuntuCEO: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:43] <DrGrov> now though the hard part is to find the neogeo bios
[21:43] <chrismsnz> acicula: yeah, the problem I think with libvirt is everything is a bit too extracted - can't get to the features you need
[21:43] <techpraxis> hi, i am looking for some help with a 9.10 upgrade to 10.04 that doesn't boot due to incorrect grub.cfg written by grub-pc and initrd that is missing crypt support
[21:43] <Izinucs> calibre: now close FF and then restart it again.. then check the memory footpring
[21:43] <Izinucs> *T
[21:43] <ubuntuCEO> how to fix?  i am using ubuntu 8.04 dell version
[21:43] <chrismsnz> s/extracted/abstracted/
[21:43] <calibre> Izinucs: FF?
[21:43] <calibre> Izinucs: oh
[21:43] <calibre> Izinucs: lol ok
[21:43] <duffydack> BlueEagle, man, installing cryptsetup has given nothing but problems.. I rebooted it and the splash was low res as always (fglrx) but slightly different, and I went from booting to no wireless, to booting to no panel to booting to clock applet failing to load..every reboot is different.  removed it and seems ok now..
[21:44] <lucid_lynx> how can you hide users from the login screen?
[21:44] <oo-dragon> I'm looking to install a image I create with remastersys to a hard drive... but not actually install it, i want it to run as an image (so it doesn't save any changes)
[21:44] <ubuntuCEO> how to install alsamixer?
[21:44] <JabberWalkie> ok so, gparted is complaining that one of my hdd's has partitions that are overlapping: here is my fdisk -l http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/hYF8ZrXX    . It seems there is a partition called "extended" that I don't think should be there (as it appears to take the whole drive). How do i fix?
[21:44] <JabberWalkie> err well sda3 I dont think belongs...
[21:45] <calibre> Izinucs: 58.6
[21:45] <oo-dragon> pointing me in the right direction would be awesome ^_^
[21:45] <nothingnow> How do i get out of xterm (Failsafe session with only xterm) and get it back to normal
[21:45] <Izinucs> calibre: k.. I think you're fine.. linux manages memory differently then windows.. it doesn't look like you have any issues..
[21:45] <calibre> Izinucs: 45.6
[21:45] <silverdrake11> Does anyone know what to set as the "Sound Profile" for optimum audio playback?
[21:45] <calibre> Izinucs: Ok thanks :)
[21:45] <greezmunkey> calibre: http://www.linuxatemyram.com
[21:46] <ubuntuCEO> anyone know how to install alsamixer back?
[21:46] <techpraxis> hi, i am looking for some help with my 9.10 upgrade.  grub-pc would not install, the initrd does not contain proper scripts for cryptsetup, and the grub-cfg is always written incorrectly. can someone help?
[21:46] <Izinucs> JabberWalkie: you have more than 4 partitions.. when you do that one of the 4 has to be an "Extended" partition.  It allow you to create more partitions under it...sda4-6 are under it..
[21:46] <JC_Denton_> trying to remove ureadahead by renaming the config file but the recovery console says the FS is read only! this happened after upgrading 810 -> 104
[21:47] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-utils"
[21:47] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: that package contains the alsamixer binary
[21:48] <c0rrupt0r> techpraxis: This helped me and I hope it helps you with your grub issues https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
[21:48] <JabberWalkie> Izinucs, well, gparted is complaining about overlapping partitions on that drive......
[21:48] <techpraxis> does anyone here have experience with 10.04 upgrade, dm-crypt, lvm and problems with grub2?
[21:48] <JabberWalkie> not sure where to go with this...
[21:48] <AnxiousNut>  there's a way to get something similar to KDE's desktop resizable area for gnome
[21:48] <ubuntuCEO> Slart, do u know why my alsamixer is gone?
[21:48] <techpraxis> c0rrupt0r, i have read that and reread that. it does not contain specific enough information to be of any value
[21:48] <JC_Denton_> ureadahead is preventing me from booting
[21:48] <Athen> I've been having kind of an odd issue recently
[21:48] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: nope.. no idea. As far as I know it's installed by default
[21:48] <ubuntuCEO> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[21:48] <Izinucs> JabberWalkie: yea.. I have that issue on my laptop.  not sure why but I suspect that my drive is going out.. I've had issues with it in the past
[21:48] <AnxiousNut> * is there a similar app for gnome to KDE's desktop resizable area?
[21:48] <jpds> ubuntuCEO: alsa-utils.
[21:49] <Izinucs> JabberWalkie: is this on a del?
[21:49] <iromli> hi guys, is there any requirement to install pidgin-musictracker?? i have installed and activated the plugin, but the status didn't change at all
[21:49] <JabberWalkie> no
[21:49] <ubuntuCEO> Slart, i have it last week, but i think i did some update days ago now sounds dont work
[21:49] <ubuntuCEO> and the alsamixer is no where to be found
[21:49] <JabberWalkie> Izinucs, it is a built computer
[21:49] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: what happens if you run that command I told you?
[21:49] <Athen> my computer goes to screen saver after 10 minutes idle, and the monitor turns off after 15 minutes idle.  but if anything happens on my desktop while the monitor is off [like a IM or other new window created], the monitor turns back on, but goes back to screen saver
[21:49] <olskolirc> how safe can it be to run wine-doors with all the exploits internet explorer has
[21:49] <ubuntuCEO> i run the command u gave me Slart
[21:50] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: and still no alsamixer?
[21:50] <ikonia> olskolirc: it's called "windows" or "wine" make it clear what you're talkng about
[21:50] <techpraxis> my install was a standard 9.10 "encrypted root" install with lvm on top of the dm-crypt mapped volume. 10.04 has totally removed my ability to boot automatically; i can boot from initramfs shell of course
[21:50] <nothingnow> ubuntuCEO type alsamixer in your terminal
[21:50] <ubuntuCEO> still no
[21:50] <techpraxis> grub-pc package does not install correctly
[21:50] <Izinucs> JabberWalkie: not sure what to do about it except maybe save your data, delete all partitions, recreate and reinstall..
[21:50] <olskolirc> how safe can it be to run wine-doors with all the exploits internet explorer has <<< what did I say ikonia?
[21:50] <ubuntuCEO> nothingnow, kelvin@mini9:~$ alsamixer
[21:50] <ubuntuCEO> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[21:50] <olskolirc> where do you see the word windows
[21:50] <Yomic> I'm unable to run World of Warcraft with wine on 10.04.  I've tried running it in the terminal, but this error keeps showing up:  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Nq1XyUzW
[21:50] <zanzibar82> hi everyone! how do I add voices to mouse right-click on karmic?
[21:51] <ikonia> olskolirc: it's called "wine" or "windows" - they are two seperate things, make it clear which one you are talking about
[21:51] <Lcawte> is it possible to change where my lamp server looks for its files, to say from the var/www to somewhere under /home?
[21:51] <ikonia> Lcawte: yes, look at your apache2.conf for your DocumentRoot directive
[21:51] <olskolirc> ikonia, I'm talking about Internet Explorer and all the windows programs that comes in "wine-doors"
[21:51] <brainradio> [nl] Brain Party June 12th Gifgrond Tilburg Holland http://doscii.nl/brainparty/
[21:51] <Izinucs> Lcawte: that may introduce vulnerabilities.. why do you want to do that?
[21:51] <olskolirc> not wine or windows
[21:51] <Slart> ubuntuCEO: odd.. what does "ls -l /usr/bin/alsa*"  print out?
[21:52] <ikonia> olskolirc: wine-doors IS wine, it's just a mangment tool for it
[21:52] <zanzibar82> hello :) !!! how do I add voices to mouse right-click on karmic? I didn't find anything on the web :(
[21:52] <olskolirc> good lord smh
[21:52] <jpds> ubuntuCEO: No, alsamixer is installed; it just can't run.
[21:52] <nothingnow> anyone willing to help me with a gdm problem
[21:52] <iromli> hi guys, is there any requirement to install pidgin-musictracker?? i have installed and activated the plugin, but the status didn't change at all
[21:52] <ubuntuCEO> Slart, -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 36724 2008-02-27 05:21 /usr/bin/alsamixer
[21:52] <ikonia> olskolirc: it's as safe as you allow it to be, if you have your machine locked down, the risk is minimal, you root it as root, then that's a risk
[21:52] <olskolirc> how safe is it to install wine-doors people with all those windows apps loaded such as internet explorer 6 which is not secure?
[21:52] <oCean_> Lcawte: you can create your "own" vhost with specific documentroots etcetera. See /etc/apache2/sites-available directory
[21:52] <ubuntuCEO> jpds, how to install that?
[21:52] <Beyecixramd> hmmm when Steam reaches Linux, could it be used in *BSD? (afaik, BSD runs all Linux apps) or a UNIX system?
[21:53] <jpds> ubuntuCEO: It is *installed*.
[21:53] <Slart> olskolirc: windows vulnerabilities could affect your linux system.. but most of them doesn't work since the backend isn't the same.. and you're not running wine as root, are you?
[21:53] <techpraxis> does anyone here understand initrd creation as far as the issues that i have posted, enough to help me get an initrd that will boot my machine?
[21:53] <Jenni0> Hi our ubuntu server doesn't show single user mode when booting since we got the new Grub
[21:53] <ubuntuCEO> why cant run?
[21:53] <Jenni0> It loads the kernel right away
[21:53] <derdui> Hey guys, has anyboder an idea, how to repair damaged jpgs?
[21:53] <AnxiousNut> what nmap options should i have to scan all ports of an ip and tell me which are open, i wanna check mine :)
[21:53] <olskolirc> no Slart and thanks
[21:53] <joppal> hello, i installed ubuntu 10.4 today. before i arranged partitions on my hd. after installation of ubuntu it was not possilbe to start windows. hd before c: 400mb (windows vista) d: 200mb (just data) s: 400mb(windows 7). hd now ubuntu 100mb d:500mb s:400mb. it seems the bootloader was on c: and is now gone. i tried system rescue cd, super grub disk and windows 7 rescue tools, but i didnt get it work. how can i fix that?
[21:53] <nothingnow> beyecixramd sure why not mac is a unix based system
[21:54] <jpds> Jenni0: Hold down Shift while GRUB loads?
[21:54] <Lcawte> oCean_: as in I could have like more than one site, and apache would point to different folders per site?
[21:54] <Izinucs> Jenni0: did you install desktop on top of the server install.. or did you take a desktop install and turn it into a server?
[21:54] <Guest3243> does anyone know what happened to thelastripper, doesnt last.fm "support" the ripper anymore?, i got these error message: [System.Net.WebException: Error getting response stream (ReadDone2): ReceiveFailure ---> System.Exception:    at System.Net.WebConnection.HandleError(WebExceptionStatus st, System.Exception e, System.String where)]
[21:54] <crabman> cant check loopback interface through nmap
[21:54] <Beyecixramd> nothingnow: well, Steam won't be free... so the portability is not confirmed. in BSD, probably, running it as it was a standard Linux app... but what about OpenSolaris, for instance?
[21:54] <DrGrov> God damn!
[21:54] <DrGrov> No valid romset found for a file that gngeo supports
[21:54] <DrGrov> Something is not right here I feel
[21:54] <hoglahoo> god damn indeed
[21:54] <Jenni0> Izinucs: whatever the default ubuntu server is ;)
[21:55] <oCean_> Lcawte: indeed. Create your vhost configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-available and the command "a2ensite" will create symlink to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory. After reload of your apache server, the newly added vhost will be available (watch for errors on reload of apache)
[21:55] <greezmunkey> AnxiousNut: you can see what ports you have open in a terminal: netstat -anp --tcp --udp | grep LISTEN
[21:55] <Beyecixramd> DrGrov: don't blame Linus, he's a good guy...
[21:55] <Izinucs> Jenni0: k.. but did you install a gui environment with it?
[21:55] <Yomic> Using wine1.2 to open World of Warcraft I keep getting this error in the terminal:  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Nq1XyUzW .  Anyone have a clue what this means
[21:55] <DrGrov> Beyecixramd, no I don't blame linus.
[21:55] <oCean_> hoglahoo: DrGrov stop swearing
[21:55] <DrGrov> Beyecixramd, i am just being a bit sceptical
[21:55] <Jenni0> Izinucs: no. if it isnt default
[21:55] <Slart> Yomic: try asking in #winehq , that's the official support channel for wine
[21:55] <nothingnow> betecixramd steam its self is free and there are a couple of free steam games.
[21:55] <DrGrov> oCean_, sure. will do.
[21:56] <Yomic> Slart:  Thank you, I will!
[21:56] <|_ocke> dio is dead :(
[21:56] <Beyecixramd> DrGrov: i was kidding, you said "god damn"
[21:56] <thesteo82> hi guys, i just upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 and my mouse doesnt work. im trying to boot an older kernel to see if that fixes it, but grub never appears on boot. any ideas?
[21:56] <iromli> hi guys, is there any requirement to install pidgin-musictracker?? i have installed and activated the plugin, but the status didn't change at all
[21:56] <Beyecixramd> nothingnow: no, i mean free as in free speech. as in free software, like Richard Stallman calls it. Not freeware
[21:56] <Izinucs> Jenni0: k.. just wondering.. installing a gui environment sill sometimes install a desktop kernel instead of the server kernel
[21:56] <AnxiousNut> greezmunkey, that would give me of my pc, i wanna check my home's IP address! is there a way to assign an ip addderss?
[21:56] <Beyecixramd> iromli: set it to your music player. Sometimes it's a bit buggy and doesn't work at all
[21:57] <nothingnow> beyecixramd i see what you mean and you never know they may release the source of the linux client =\
[21:57] <acicula> thesteo82, hold right shift during boot
[21:57] <techpraxis> hi, guys, does anyone here work with encrypted root hard disks in 10.04, and if so, could you help me get my initrd in order so that i can boot automatically? I have a 10.04 machine that I upgraded using Update Manager from 9.10.  during the upgrade and after, grub-pc refuses to work correctly.
[21:57] <Jenni0> Izinucs: fresh install? :|
[21:58] <greezmunkey> AnxiousNut: You can run nmap against it, but you have to be on the outside I believe for the result to be accurate.
[21:58] <acicula> techpraxis, the alternate installation cd supports setting that up
[21:58] <Beyecixramd> nothingnow: they won't........ it's THEIR money. And also, releasing the steam source code won't be enough to run it on OpenSolaris, for example. They would need to release all the other games' source code
[21:58] <iromli> Beyecixramd: yeah, i've changed it ... hmm i guess it's buggy like you said
[21:58] <Izinucs> Jenni0: sorry I don't have the answers for you.. if nobody here then maybe in #ubuntu-server
[21:58] <Lcawte> oCean_: I dont see a sites-available..
[21:58] <AnxiousNut> greezmunkey, and how can i do that?
[21:58] <Beyecixramd> nothingnow: believe me, Valve is not going to do that... never ever...
[21:58] <Lcawte> oCean_: oops, sorry
[21:58] <Fozo> What does install side by side mean in the installer?
[21:59] <acicula> techpraxis, oh upgrade, misread, whats the error you get during boot?
[21:59] <Beyecixramd> Fozo: in the partition thing?
[21:59] <acicula> techpraxis, can you get to the root when you boot in recovery mode?
[21:59] <techpraxis> acicula, i am not setting up a new install, i upgraded an existing install. what did you mean by referring to the alternate cd?
[21:59] <Fozo> yah Ubuntu install page 4
[21:59] <Lcawte> oCean_: so do I have to like, go to the directory I want to set each site to and use that command or what?
[21:59] <greezmunkey> AnxiousNut: nmap -A -T4 {your public ip address}
[21:59] <techpraxis> acicula, sorry i didn't see your second reply
[21:59] <zanzibar82> hi guys :) how do I add voices to mouse right-click on karmic? I didn't find any guide about it
[22:00] <techpraxis> acicula, i can boot from initramfs is all
[22:00] <acicula> techpraxis, the alternate cd is the only installer that supports setting up full disk encryption, as opposed to the (standard) default which just encrypts the data in /home
[22:00] <DrGrov> Seriously. I can't be this much problem to get a romset working
[22:00] <oCean_> Lcawte: the default configfile there, you could use to create a new one. Just copy it over using a name you want to use. Edit that file, run the command "a2ensite <newsitename>" and reload/restart apache
[22:00] <greezmunkey> AnxiousNut: there are lots of nmap options you can choose, depending on what you are looking for.
[22:00] <sonna-hack> nass!
[22:00] <ubuntuCEO> The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.
[22:00] <ubuntuCEO> You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.
[22:00] <thesteo82> acicula thanks ill give that a go!
[22:00] <xomp> could someone please help me with SFTP'ing into my ubuntu VPS? I'm getting an error in WinSCP of http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/323/sftp.jpg
[22:00] <ubuntuCEO> anyone knows whats wrong here?
[22:00] <techpraxis> acicula, yeah i didn't use the cd, i did an upgrade using Upgrade manager from my existing 9.10 system
[22:00] <Beyecixramd> Fozo: it means it will get installed along your Windows installation
[22:00] <ubuntuCEO> i still have got no alsamixer
[22:00] <sonna-hack> are there anybody espanish?
[22:00] <CkhiKuzad> I need two things of help, first off: i need to know how to configure a USB flash drive to be bootable, and then i need to know how to make GRUB2 boot that USB drive.
[22:00] <AnxiousNut> greezmunkey: thanks a lot for the help :)
[22:00] <Fozo> do I pick where?
[22:00] <techpraxis> during the upgrade, i got an error that grub-pc would not install to /dev/sda
[22:00] <sonna-hack> spanish**
[22:00] <Beyecixramd> Fozo: what?
[22:01] <xomp> !es | sonna-hack
[22:01] <Beyecixramd> sonna-hack: yes, but this channel is english only
[22:01] <Fozo> will it make partion for it?
[22:01] <acicula> techpraxis, im not much good at recovering that, seems using the livecd/recovery mode from the livecd boot option may be usefull to try to get your disks mounted so you can chroot into your system and fix whatevers wrong with grub?
[22:01] <c0rrupt0r> Hello I have installed xsane and sane to use my HP ScanJet 4600 flat bed scanner but it does not seem to find it, I am running Ubuntu 10.04 any ideas would be great
[22:02] <Beyecixramd> Fozo: it will make your system have two partitions: one for Windows, and one for Ubuntu, letting you choose at bootup
[22:02] <techpraxis> acicula, the error i get, when i boot from command list in grub2 (because the grub.cfg is always written in error with /boot as prefix), i get /dev device not found -- since the initrd is not able to decrypt the drive.
[22:03] <techpraxis> if i do it manually with cryptsetup luksOpen "/dev/sda5" someTargetname, of course it works
[22:03] <|_ocke> man that's harsh
[22:03] <|_ocke> did i really just get kicked for the dio comment?
[22:03] <Fozo> what is a partion table?
[22:03] <Loshki> c0rrupt0r: try running it just once as root to see if it finds your scanner. If so, you know you have a permissions problem...
[22:03] <olskolirc> how can we find in logs if our system has an unauthorized access please?
[22:03] <CkhiKuzad> I need two things of help, first off: i need to know how to configure a USB flash drive to be bootable, and then i need to know how to make GRUB2 boot that USB drive.
[22:03] <acicula> |_ocke, you can discuss ban/kicks in ubuntu-ops
[22:04] <techpraxis> but how do i get my initrd to work? do i have to add something to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
[22:04] <|_ocke> acicula, it's not that big a deal
[22:04] <elhobab> Hi anyone have trying to installed TELL ME MORE on Ubuntu??
[22:04] <ubuntuCEO> anyone knows how to install alsamixer ??
[22:04] <xomp> could someone please help me with SFTP'ing into my ubuntu VPS? I'm getting an error in WinSCP of http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/323/sftp.jpg
[22:04] <acicula> techpraxis, update-initramfs will regenerate it, seems you just need to tweak the grub settings though?
[22:05] <Fozo> does anyone know and can explain to me what a partition table is?
[22:05] <techpraxis> acicula, i have already used the 10.04 livecd to chroot into my system, and grub can't be fixed except by manually editing the grub.cfg, which you are not supposed to do, since on my system grub-pc is BROKEN
[22:05] <greezmunkey> c0rrupt0r: look here, if your scanner is not supported you are out of luck: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html
[22:05] <acicula> Fozo, a hard disk map telling where the partitons are
[22:05] <JabberWalkie> Izinucs, ok so I have soled the problem. I used a program called testdisk, it can scan your disk for partitions and then correct the partition directory, worked great :)
[22:05] <Fozo> if I make a new one will the old one be earased?
[22:05] <acicula> techpraxis, if you are upgrading you have grub1 afaik?
[22:06] <Izinucs> JabberWalkie: I used that once on my laptop.. fixed it and got it working but gparted still had issues.
[22:06] <acicula> techpraxis, if not then you should edit /etc/default/grub to set grub settings
[22:06] <CkhiKuzad> ._. i have asked twice. and twice it has been pushed up. people, google hasnt helped me for the past 10 times i googled it. i NEED help.
[22:06] <techpraxis> acicula, no i have grub2 -- i installed 9.10 grub2
[22:06] <Fozo> if I make a new one will the old one be earased?
[22:06] <JabberWalkie> ahh, well gparted is working fine here
[22:06] <techpraxis> so was 9.10 grub2 --> 10.04 grub2, not 9.10 grub1 --> 10.04 grub2
[22:06] <CkhiKuzad> i need to know how to make a USB drive bootable, and how to make GRUB2 boot it.
[22:06] <acicula> Fozo, well its a map, you can add and remove paritions from it
[22:06] <c0rrupt0r> greezmunkey: I have looked there and it says its supported, I have also used sane to find other office scanners and it finds them but odly it will not find two at once? is it only supposted to find one and not navigate between the two different types of scanners?
[22:06] <xomp> CkhiKuzad, I've been waiting for about 10 hours with no response to my question, it's not unusual to be waiting forever for help here :) Just be patient.
[22:07] <Loshki> !usb | CkhiKuzad Did you find nothing useful here?
[22:07] <techpraxis> i think, unless someone can convince me otherwise, that i have identified a bug in the 10.04 version of grub
[22:07] <Beyecixramd> xomp: what's your question?
[22:07] <Black_Phantom> How can I create a command shortcut or a script in another words as a shortcut on the desktop ?
[22:07] <AnxiousNut> Is there an app for gnome similar to KDE's desktop resizable area?
[22:07] <CkhiKuzad> xomp, i know that it takes a while, and thanks Loshki/ubottu
[22:07] <GeekSquid> xomp: seems like ssh server isn't running on your VPS
[22:07] <xomp> Beyecixramd, could someone please help me with SFTP'ing into my ubuntu VPS? I'm getting an error in WinSCP of http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/323/sftp.jpg
[22:07] <Beyecixramd> AnxiousNut: yes, the upcoming GNOME Shell
[22:08] <xomp> GeekSquid, I am able to ssh into the VPS just fine though
[22:08] <xomp> GeekSquid, and the sftp subset is loaded
[22:08] <DrGrov> how do I get that gngeo package uninstalled now then?
[22:08] <greezmunkey> c0rrupt0r: that I have no advice on, sorry. check at  http://www.sane-project.org there may be a forum there you can contact.
[22:08] <Beyecixramd> xomp: have you installed the adequate packages and opened ports in both sides?
[22:08] <GeekSquid> xomp: reccommend using filezilla, it works well with sftp on port 22
[22:09] <c0rrupt0r> greezmunkey: Thank you for your help I surely will do what you suggest
[22:09] <xomp> Beyecixramd, according to my host (DME Hosting) they don't block any ports :S as for adequate packages, I'm not aware of what I should have/not have heh
[22:09] <greezmunkey> c0rrupt0r: heh, there is #sane...I haven't checked it though.
[22:09] <Black_Phantom> ok a simpler question, How do I make a script ?
[22:09] <Beyecixramd> xomp: issue sudo install sftp, or things like that
[22:09] <Beyecixramd> xomp: anyway, your question is more appropiate to be asked in #Ubuntu-server
[22:10] <Beyecixramd> anyways, im out, see you people
[22:10] <xomp> Beyecixramd, cheers
[22:11] <xomp> GeekSquid, Filezilla gives "Out of Memory" error when trying to connect to it on port 22
[22:11] <CkhiKuzad> does anyone know why whenever i type "yes" in a terminal, it suddenly goes yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy (but much longer, and in a new line)
[22:12] <GeekSquid> xomp: in the left hand side address bar where you would put the hostname ... start with sftp://hostname or ip ...
[22:12] <Loshki> xomp: two things to try: first is hushlogin: http://www.debian-administration.org/article/Giving_yourself_a_quieter_SSH_login. The second is keyed login: http://realprogrammers.com/how_to/sftp_and_scp.html
[22:13] <greezmunkey> CkhiKuzad: what happens when you type yoyo?
[22:13] <xomp> GeekSquid, yeah same out of memory error as before :P
[22:13] <DrGrov> how do I get that gngeo package uninstalled now then which I downloaded and installed? PM please
[22:13] <xomp> Loshki, I'll take a look into that thanks
[22:13] <craigbass1976> Wow; upgraded a neighbor to Lucid (from hardy) and nothing works.
[22:13] <CkhiKuzad> greezmunkey: bash: yoyo: command not found
[22:13] <craigbass1976> Well, X and the network; other than that things might be fine
[22:13] <xomp> Loshki, it's strange because I never get any MOTD or anything of the sorts when logging into my SSH
[22:13] <Loshki> techpraxis: I wouldn't be surprised. Grub2 is relatively new. If you can't find an existing bug in launchpad, please file a new nig for it...
[22:14] <James-q> CkhiKuzad : Press Enter instead.
[22:14] <Armageddon> there is a package, or so I've been told, that makes Ubuntu i386 or 32bit use more then 3GB of RAM, can anyone help ?
[22:14] <greezmunkey> CkhiKuzad: that is wierd, I think it's supposed to do that, interesting!
[22:14] <Loshki> techpraxis: nig -> bug (off by one key...)
[22:14] <CkhiKuzad> i guess its supposed to scare people who try to do apt-get without using superuser powers.
[22:14] <Slart> Armageddon: you're probably looking for a PAE-enabled kernel
[22:14] <greezmunkey> CkhiKuzad:  check this: man yes
[22:14] <jahnkeanater> sudo dpkg --configure -a exit status 1
[22:14] <Loshki> xomp: can you sftp from the server into the server?
[22:15] <CkhiKuzad> like "are you root" "yes" "yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"
[22:15] <jahnkeanater> help
[22:15] <greezmunkey> CkhiKuzad:  check this: man yes
[22:15] <xomp> Loshki, yeah
[22:15] <CkhiKuzad> just did
[22:15] <Slart> Armageddon: PAE (physical address extensions or something like that) enables you to use more than 4GB on a 32bit system.. I think it's enabled on all the server kernels.. not desktop kernels
[22:15] <James-q> CkhiKuzad : Time to clean your keyboard..something got under Yyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
[22:15] <vithos> how do you change the console resolution in 10.04?
[22:15] <Loshki> CkhiKuzad: 'yes' is a unix command. man yes....
[22:15] <SwedeMike> there are PAE kernels available for desktop.
[22:15] <CkhiKuzad> if it uses a lot of ram/cpu during its running, its looks kinda like a DoS.
[22:16] <acicula> yes is usufull for autoconfiguring kernels
[22:16] <Flannel> Slart, Armageddon: There's a -pae generic (desktop) kernel as of 9.10 too now
[22:16] <jricslima> ola
[22:16] <greezmunkey> CkhiKuzad: can be a bit hard to break out of, I find, as well !
[22:16] <compaq_> hi, I am having trouble with zoom out.  First of all, water is <super>?  So, I had my laptop set up a while back with Karmic, so that if I click the left side of the screen it zooms out.  Now I just installed lucid on my desktop, and made the same config change in compiz settings manager, section scale, and it doesn't work.
[22:16] <Loshki> xomp: weird. Still, harmless to try the above suggestions....
[22:16] <jricslima> como fazer para não mais receber emails do python?
[22:16] <CkhiKuzad> i just do CTRL+C
[22:16] <SwedeMike> tonio904__: why three clients?
[22:16] <Slart> Flannel: ah.. nice.. thanks
[22:16] <Loshki> !pt | jricslima
[22:17] <CkhiKuzad> !es | jricslima
[22:17] <CkhiKuzad> oh.
[22:17] <xomp> Loshki, ok :)
[22:17] <jricslima> ok
[22:17] <CkhiKuzad> either way, he knows.
[22:17] <Loshki> CkhiKuzad: yes, but it *was* portuguese...
[22:18] <CkhiKuzad> Loshki: i didnt know that... WOOT! i learn more every day ^^
[22:18] <Loshki> CkhiKuzad: me too...
[22:18] <techpraxis> Loshki, yes i think i am going to do that later this afternoon. one thing that may be causing the failure of grub-pc to install is that all my pv names have dashes in them -- you know they did that workaround in debian so that this would mean that names have two dashes if you originally put a dash. i found a bug in grub2 last year that was filed under debian, do not know if ubuntu picked it up
[22:18] <DrGrov> Any frontend for Dgen, the Sega Genesis Emulator?
[22:19] <copb_phoenix> How do I scan a DOS floppy (mounted under /media/) for errors? Is there a way to do so from the command line?
[22:19] <CkhiKuzad> i'm getting to the point where rather than using gnome-terminal, i think i will just use guake
[22:19] <techpraxis> but the error is the "pv0: physical volume not found" i have never had a physical volume named pv0
[22:19] <not_an_andy> hello everybody, what is the console command for check disk?
[22:19] <Alex_21> How can I set up my fixed-width serial printer under Hardy?
[22:19] <Alex_21> Please.
[22:19] <martinam> martinam
[22:19] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: umount it, then do dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/dev/null and see if it succeeds.
[22:19] <Loshki> techpraxis: scary, and well outside my expertise, sorry...
[22:19] <GeekSquid> not_an_andy: fsck
[22:19] <greezmunkey> acicula: the man page give absolutely no information on the yes command - seems like I heard of that years ago. Maybe it was there for benchmarking?
[22:20] <tarvid> is there a lighter pvr than myth?
[22:20] <bindir> I have an older gigabyte amd 939 board with onboard lan, when I try enabling 4GB ram support the NIC stops working, if I turn off the support I lose ~500mb of ram but my NIC works (ubuntu 8.04 LT zimbra server)
[22:21] <test34> tarvid, less features?
[22:21] <compaq_> how do you zoom out?
[22:21] <Loshki> greezmunkey: the 'yes' man page doesn't say much, but then again, the command doesn't do much. It's been there for decades though. For testing teletypes maybe?
[22:21] <test34> bindir, 32bit OS ?
[22:21] <greezmunkey> acicula: O'Reily says this - I doubt it's usefullness though: Useful in scripts and in the background; its output can be piped to a program that issues prompts
[22:22] <techpraxis> Loshki, understood. and yes, disturbing. it is actually grub-probe that generates the error. looking back on all the problems with grub2 in the first week of release, grub-probe appears to implicated in many off them. ubuntu unresolved bugs for grub2 are prominentlyy mentioning that three different fixes for grub-probe were committed since may 10.
[22:22] <bindir> test34: 64bit SMP
[22:22] <greezmunkey> Loshki: right, printheads - baselining line printers probably!
[22:22] <Alex_21> Sorry, how?
[22:22] <Alex_21> I need to set this fixed-width printer up.
[22:22] <Alex_21> Lol
[22:23] <tarvid> test34, I would like to capture the stuff I play on tvtime
[22:23] <Alex_21> It is giving me a tough time.
[22:23] <skinnymg1> im going to build myself a new computer and need to know if this mobo is going to do ok with Ubuntu is there anyone i can send the link to for advice
[22:23] <Loshki> techpraxis: Frankly, I'm underwhelmed with grub2 stuff. The scripts are terribly convoluted and look like they were done in a hurry...
[22:23] <techpraxis> Loshki, i am glad i am not the only one who feels this way
[22:23] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: an error: "dd: opening `/dev/fd0': No such file or directory"
[22:24] <JayX> how cani get a list of allchat rooms on the freenode server?
[22:24] <jpds> JayX: /msg Alis list
[22:24] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: then I guess it's called something else, you need to replace /dev/fd0 with whatever the drive is called
[22:24] <techpraxis> Loshki, i looked at the grub-probe script this morning and noted several places where function calls could be thrown off by parameters not anticipated in the *) for the switch
[22:24] <Loshki> skinnymg1: usually I check reviews on newegg and look for someone who says it worked (or didn't) on Ubuntu. If that doesn't work, your next best bet is to check the individual chipsets, but it's a gamble at that point...
[22:25] <_ba> any ideas why when i do ls /etc it hangs and locks up my ssh session?
[22:25] <[fade]> too much data
[22:25] <greezmunkey> Loshki: wow, pipe the output of yes (some page width string) to a printer and put it in the background...That would drive an administrator crazy.
[22:25] <techpraxis> i am going to have to file that bug report. the annoying thing is that the maintainers of grub appear to be so satisfied that they have committed fixes
[22:25] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: It's an external drive hooked via USB. How would I go about finding out it's name?
[22:25] <JayX> jpds,  dont work :D
[22:25] <skinnymg1> Loshki, it has the Intel G31 chipset
[22:25] <Loshki> techpraxis: I boot 10.04 from a grub1 menu. It's unsupported...
[22:25] <JayX> SwedeMike,  they thanks! i got my files archives
[22:25] <JayX> -s +d
[22:25] <techpraxis> Loshki, hmmm that IS interesting. maybe i can do the same thing
[22:26] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: check what it was mounted with before.
[22:26] <_ba> well it seems i can't view anything in the /etc dir if i do a less /etc/vsftpd.conf it hangs as well
[22:26] <Guest44361> \join #python.de
[22:26] <JayX> how cani get a list of allchat rooms on the freenode server?
[22:27] <Loshki> skinnymg1: I run g31 myself on an ECS G31-T M mobo (bundle from frys)
[22:27] <techpraxis> Loshki, my drive is formatting GPT, would that preclude doing as you mentioned (knowing that you did NOT suggest it, acknowledging it is UNSUPPORTED) -- but grub-pc is not working properly for my use case that is for sure.
[22:27] <skinnymg1> GIGABYTE GA-G31M-ES2L is the mobo im looking at
[22:27] <compaq_> is anyone here using desktop zoom out, I can't work it
[22:28] <kaddi> Hi, I need help with Virtualbox.. I uninstalled the OSE version to test the closed source version, but didn't like it much. However now when I try to install VB-ose it says:  * No suitable module for running kernel found [fail].  I'm running a 64bit lucid install. What do I need to do to be able to install Virtualbox?
[22:28] <not_an_andy> is there a check disk command in linux?
[22:28] <Loshki> techpraxis: I got the idea from http://fordflux.com/blog/linux/downgrade-grub-2/ and noting that upgrading to 9.X had the option to keep grub1...
[22:28] <pepee> not_an_andy, fsck
[22:28] <kaddi> not_an_andy: maybe youre looking for fsck?
[22:28] <duffydack> kaddi, sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[22:29] <not_an_andy> pepee, thanks
[22:29] <pepee> lol I had that problem with vbox too
[22:29] <pepee> not_an_andy, np
[22:30] <bindir> hmm
[22:30] <sebsebseb> Hi
[22:30] <bindir> is there a way to apt-get install kernel 2.6.32 for ubuntu 8.04 LTS?
[22:31] <sebsebseb> bindir: Why do you want it? There  is probably also a ppa.
[22:31] <bindir> seems like apt just wants to go from 2.6.24-26 to 2.6.24-27 after I do apt-get update
[22:31] <Daekdroom> It won't jump from 2.6.24 to 2.6.32 if you don't upgrade your ubuntu version
[22:31] <techpraxis> Loshki, many thanks for that link. I understand at my own risk. but thanks.
[22:31] <bindir> sebsebseb: I'm thinking it might be a driver/kernel issue related to my NIC not working with 4gb mem support on in the bios
[22:32] <kaddi> duffydack: thanks, that at least allowed for VB to be opened. :) Now it says "Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root" when I try to start an image. When I type said command in the command line the output is: "FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found."
 I am looking for some decent wireless noice cancling headphones copatible with ubuntu yet can't seem to find any or find a form that could provide me with a recomendation. If you know of any or of a forum that could offer me a good recomendation can you please tell me.
[22:32] <xxploit> bindir, there is a ubuntu kernel ppa
[22:32] <Loshki> skinnymg1: I took a look at newegg reviews. One reviewer had NIC problems, another mentions fan speed issues, but half a dozen say ubuntu ran with no problems. Make sure you can RMA it if the worst comes to the worst...
[22:32] <Loshki> techpraxis: best of luck...
[22:32] <sebsebseb> bindir: 8.04 is getting quite old now really,  you can directly upgrade it to 10.04.  However no Ext4 file system or Grub 2 on upgrade, but you don't need those anyway.
[22:32] <Daekdroom> xxploit: That ppa can't work as a .deb repo, can it?
[22:33] <duffydack> kaddi, you uninstalled ose right?
[22:33] <bindir> sebsebseb: zimbra doesn't support 10.04
[22:33] <xxploit> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/
[22:33] <sebsebseb> bindir: What's zimbra?
[22:33] <aha> ...
[22:33] <Daekdroom> bindir: Is it still under warranty?
[22:33] <kaddi> duffydack: i uninstalled ose, installed the closed source one, uninstalled the closed source one and am now trying to reinstall the ose one
[22:33] <Loshki> sebsebseb: bindir: 10.04 with grub1 and ext3 sounds like the best of both worlds, if you ask me....
[22:33] <bindir> Daekdroom: the mainboard?
[22:33] <sebsebseb> Loshki: oh?
[22:33] <duffydack> kaddi, tried modprobe -r {whatever module ose is} ?
[22:33] <kaddi> duffydack: so I know it was working before and I don't understand why it ain working now
[22:33] <Daekdroom> bindir: the system?
[22:33] <sebsebseb> Loshki: Ext4 is good, but  Grub 2 most of us don't need that.
[22:33] <bindir> Daekdroom: no
[22:34] <bindir> sebsebseb: zimbra is a mail/calendar (exchange replacement)
[22:34] <kaddi> duffydack: modprobe -r vboxdrv returns the same error message
[22:34] <duffydack> kaddi, ah..you want ose back..    just uninstall everything virtualbox..  that means autoremove --purge
[22:34] <UrbanGreenZone> how do I stop the "Default Keyring" from popping up everytime I restart
[22:34] <sebsebseb> bindir: As far as I know Evolution has some support now for Exchange
[22:34] <sebsebseb> bindir: also if you can install a program for 8.04, then you probably can for 10.04 as well
[22:34] <kaddi> duffydack: won't that delete all the VM I installed as well?
[22:35] <bindir> sebsebseb: zimbra has a commerical version that doesn't support 10.04
[22:35] <skinnymg1> Loshki, ty
[22:35] <bindir> http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/ne-downloads.html
[22:35] <sebsebseb> bindir: yes it may say it doesn't run on 10.04, but it probably will
[22:35] <techpraxis> Loshki, it looks like the community ubuntu pages have not yet gotten an "encryptedfilesystems" page that is updated for lucid? but i can fix initrd on my own; it appears that the kernel post-inst scripts are not updating the initrd either. unbelievable. and they call this "long-term support"?
[22:35] <tofu_> hola a todos
[22:35] <techpraxis> sometimes ubuntu scares me.
[22:36] <Loshki> sebsebseb: this channel has seen its share of mysterious behaviour reports with ext4. We've never known if it was pilot error or something more insidious. If you want good stability, ext3....
[22:36] <GeekSquid> !es | tofu_
[22:36] <duffydack> kaddi, no
[22:36] <techpraxis> Loshki, i think i am going to start a blog and call it "Ubuntu Lucid from scratch"
[22:36] <UrbanGreenZone> anyone ... Prevent "Default Keyring" on startup?
[22:36] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: The community help pages also have a lot of old info, however I read that they are going to completly re do that for 10.10.
[22:36] <tofu_> muchas gracias ubottu
[22:36] <robertzaccour> is there anything besides xubuntu recommended for netbooks? besides lxde i mean
[22:36] <bub> I want to be able to do 3D models, what is the best 'free' program to use for Ubuntu?
[22:36] <James-q> Zimbara nice name!
[22:37] <onetinsoldier> bub: probably blender
[22:37] <Loshki> techpraxis: the encrypted stuff scares me anyway. Periodically we get people here who can't decrypt their file systems. It's very hard to know if it's pilot error or something more insidious...
[22:37] <onetinsoldier> !info blender
[22:37] <sebsebseb> bindir: I'll have a look at the site
[22:37] <bub> onetinsoldier: thankyou :)
[22:37] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: Multiple tries in different ways gives me a persistent mount at sdc. However, when I try to run the command you passed me with the directory/pointers changed after umount, it fails with the same error each time: "dd: opening `/dev/sdc/': Not a directory"
[22:37] <onetinsoldier> bub: you're welcome
[22:37] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: /dev/sdc, not sdc/
[22:37] <gafir> hello, is there a way to know the SSID of the wifi to which you are connected from command line?
[22:38] <carlosfrias> hola
[22:38] <tofu_> Adios a todos
[22:38] <Loshki> techpraxis: time-based releases mean something is always not ready. I wouldn't judge 10.04 until it's had at least a couple of month's soak time in the field...
[22:38] <techpraxis> Loshki, yeah it seems that Canonical was promoting the LUKS option with 9.10, or am I misperceiving what seemed to me like a distinct increase in boasting that Ubuntu "now came with full disk encryption capabilities" in media releases last year??
[22:38] <GeekSquid> gafir: iwconfig
[22:38] <gafir> GeekSquid: Thanks :)
[22:39] <SwedeMike> gafir: iwconfig
[22:39] <jahnkeanater> dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[22:39] <sebsebseb> Loshki: Google have gone from Ext2 to Ext4, or will rather soon,  however they also hired the lead Ext4 developer
[22:39] <carlosfrias> hola, he intalado kde en ubuntu netbook, pero al ejecutar el escritorio kde no me sale optomizado para netbook, alguien sabe como socluionarlo????
[22:39] <Loshki> techpraxis: are you old enough to remember Lucy and Ethel at the chocolate factory? That's time-based releases for you....
[22:39] <sebsebseb> !es | carlosfrias
[22:39] <gafir> SwedeMike: Thanks :-)
[22:39] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: Success. Readout says that it copied the physical disk size, but what did that command do, exactly? And what do I do next?
[22:39] <bub> onetinsoldier: do I want the linux x86-32 or the linux x86-64?
[22:40] <Loshki> sebsebseb: good, that should knock out the last few bugs in ext4 then....
[22:40] <jahnkeanater> i was updateing from 9.04 to 9.10 and now i cant install anything
[22:40] <gafir> swedeMike / GeekSquid: although I am connected to my wireless router, when doing iwconfig I get: Access Point: Not-Associated
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> bub: you use the command line at all? try 'uname -m' on the command line
[22:40] <sebsebseb> bindir: still here?
[22:40] <techpraxis> Loshki, correction admonishment is proper. but the initrd thing NEEDs to be better documented. Perhaps that is what I am going to have contribute to user documentation, as soon as I learn it for ubuntu. I know it on Debian pretty well, but Ubuntu has its own weird tweaks to initamfs-tools
[22:40] <gafir> SwedeMike / GeekSquid: do you see any reason why this is happening? :-)
[22:40] <bindir> sebsebseb: it's not a matter of it running or not on 10.04 it's if something goes wrong they can just say "oh we don't support 10.04"
[22:40] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: if it copied the whole thing then you dont have any bad blocks.
[22:40] <sebsebseb> Loshki: A bit off topic, but 10.10 might have btfs as the default file system
[22:41] <kaddi> duffydack:  you're awesum! :D Thanks, it's working now.
[22:41] <Loshki> techpraxis: not a lot of people know about that stuff. I'd love to read anything you write on the topic....
[22:41] <sebsebseb> bindir: I see
[22:41] <sebsebseb> bindir: yeah
[22:41] <bindir> sebsebseb: yea trying to see if google would know why 4gb memory mapping would break an ethernet card lol
[22:41] <sebsebseb> bindir: so why do you want the later kernel exactly?
[22:41] <jahnkeanater> can someong google something 4 me
[22:41] <sebsebseb> bindir: you want to use Zimbra at home or?
[22:41] <GeekSquid> gafir: you see the ESSID but no MAC address for Access Point?
[22:41] <gafir> sorry, was d/c
[22:42] <Loshki> jahnkeanater: I google stuff for people on this channel all the time. What do you need?
[22:42] <duffydack> kaddi, no prob
[22:42] <gafir> still got access point: Not-Associated
[22:42] <sebsebseb> bindir: this might sound a bit sucky, but here's something you could do.  10.04 as the host operating system, with 8.04 in Virtualbox for Zimbra
[22:42] <GeekSquid> gafir: you see the ESSID but no MAC address for AccessPoint?
[22:42] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: use pastebin to show the entire error you're getting
[22:42] <onetinsoldier> !pastebin | jahnkeanater
[22:42] <gafir> GeekSquid: eth1      IEEE 802.11  Access Point: Not-Associated

[22:42] <gafir> oups
[22:42] <JabberWalkie> ok, so I have added a bootable partition to one of my disks, how do I update grub to add this into the menu?
[22:42] <FloodBot2> gafir: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:42] <gafir> should have used pastebin
[22:42] <NimbleRabit> I have Ubuntu 9.10 running as my media center for my TV, connected to surround sound through a spdif cable, and the sound is suddenly not working after a restart.  It used to work fine, but now nothing plays out of my speakers.  Can anybody help me troubleshoot this?
[22:42] <jahnkeanater> i cannot
[22:42] <techpraxis> Loshki, one thing i also need to learn about is plymouth. do you have any good pages for me to brush up on its secrets??
[22:42] <JabberWalkie> (i am using 10.04)
[22:42] <James-q> gafir : try arp -a
[22:43] <jahnkeanater> its telling me to run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[22:43] <Anonymous_> is there something similar to manycam which can emulate a webcam. I want to do a live streaming of my desktop.
[22:43] <sebsebseb> bindir: anyway I guess a bit longer now, and Zimba will do a version for 10.04
[22:43] <jahnkeanater> i ran that and it gives me this error dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[22:43] <Loshki> techpraxis: I don't. sebsebseb, weren't you working with plymouth a couple of weeks ago?
[22:43] <GeekSquid> gafir: eth1 technically shouldn't be a wlan,... you should see your wireless as wlan0 or ath0 depending on your hardware
[22:43] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: for what package?
[22:43] <jahnkeanater> i would use paste bin but i do naot have an internet browser :(
[22:43] <gafir> GeekSquid: so it's misconfigured?
[22:43] <jahnkeanater> 9.04
[22:43] <gafir> James: ? (<IP_ADDRESS>) at 00:22:75:47:70:2e [ether] on eth1
[22:43] <jahnkeanater> i think
[22:43] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: I understand - but that leaves me with a different problem. I have a floppy here, the same one I've been working with, that has to have all files backed up... And It's got a lot of corruption. Is there anyway to get the system to piece this thing's files back together from what's there?
[22:44] <sebsebseb> Loshki: uh?
[22:44] <GeekSquid> gafir: do ifconfig and use paste.ubuntu.com to paste the output
[22:44] <jahnkeanater> i think im in between 9.04 and 9.10
[22:44] <Loshki> sebsebseb: did I misremember. I thought you were advising someone about plymouth a short while ago...
[22:44] <techpraxis> Nimblerabit, i am not ubuntu sound expert, but have patience, someone in this channel will respond
[22:44] <Loshki> !plymouth
[22:44] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: fsck it, so depending on the filesystem you need to use the correct fsck util
[22:44] <jahnkeanater> its like 9.10 /w 9.04 kernel
[22:44] <sebsebseb> Loshki: yes
[22:44] <sebsebseb> Loshki: I have done so
[22:44] <JabberWalkie> nm, I found it
[22:44] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: but make a backup of the drive first.
[22:45] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: I couldn't find one for DOS. Have I missed something?
[22:45] <techpraxis> Loshki, i can get rid of plymouth via standard apt-get remove?
[22:45] <jahnkeanater> i got an error updateing
[22:45] <Loshki> sebsebseb: got any links for techpraxis ?
[22:45] <sebsebseb> Loshki: what's techpraxis  issue
[22:45] <sebsebseb> ?
[22:45] <NimbleRabit> techpraxis, thanks, hopefully that's true.  I can't for the life of me figure out what happened
[22:45] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: you might have to install a package for that
[22:45] <wysiwyg> ubuntu acpi support fails for my notebook, but works when waking up from suspend to disk. is there a way to track down the problem?
[22:45] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: fsck.msdos I have anyway.
[22:45] <Loshki> techpraxis: meet sebsebseb. sebsebseb: meet techpraxis...
[22:45] <jahnkeanater> what do i need to do
[22:45] <James-q> gafir : so you are wired not wireless!
[22:45] <gafir> GeekSquid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/434579/
[22:46] <gafir> James-q: I am wireless :-)
[22:46] <techpraxis> NimbleRabit: is your sound completely not working, or rather, how far have you gone to figuring out if it can put sound out -- do you know how to find System menu/ Preferences/Sound??
[22:46] <tommyboy> teen
[22:46] <compengi> good evening all, i have 4GB of ram and i have installed a i386 Ubuntu on my laptop but i only see 3GB out of them. what should i do?
[22:46] <gafir> James-q: I just installed a new Belkin wireless router and when I'm connected to it, i don't see i am but it works, which is weird, and my wireless is as eth1
[22:46] <edith> join #ubuntu-qc
[22:47] <James-q> gafir : private message!
[22:47] <techpraxis> NimbleRabit, if you can find System/Preferences/Sound Preferences, do you have the correct output adapter specified in the tab called 'output'?
[22:47] <edith> #join ubuntu-women-project
[22:47] <gafir> GeekSquid / James-q : did you get my ifconfig? Just making sure
[22:47] <jahnkeanater> whats this mean cpio: ./sbin/cryptsetup: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
[22:47] <SwedeMike> compengi: install PAE kernel.
[22:48] <copb_phoenix> @SwedeMike: Variations on the name give me nothing - no packages suggested, and it's not so easy to track that down without a repo... What do I do?
[22:48] <Loshki> edith: you need a leading slash e.g. /join #ubuntu-qc
[22:48] <SwedeMike> copb_phoenix: sudo apt-cache search fsck.msdos
[22:48] <compengi> SwedeMike, thanks! :)
[22:49] <jahnkeanater> someone google this 'dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1'
[22:49] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: for what package?
[22:49] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: I apologize; it's already installed, but I forgot that we refer to it as msdos from linux. I'll work at that and get back to you shortly.
[22:50] <jahnkeanater> im pretty sure its still 9.04
[22:50] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, hey, i was working with loshki on issues resulting from a 9.10 upgrade --> 10.04 LTS == grub-pc not able to install; initrd not updated properly even after update-initramfs -u al
[22:50] <jahnkeanater> how can i check
[22:50] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: that error message refers to a specific package. need to at least know the name of it
[22:50] <sebsebseb> Loshki: uh so what's  what he just told me, got to do with Plymouth?
[22:50] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, the system in question had a LUKS encrypted root ala alternate install method from 9.10
[22:50] <jahnkeanater> idk how do i check
[22:50] <NimbleRabit> techpraxis, yes
[22:50] <GeekSquid> gafir: that is just wierd, not sure what you did, and I have a meeting to be in, so I can't stick around to help, bbl
[22:50] <emry> What are the new steps to get access to java6? (sun java...  :( OpenJava still doesn't work with what I am trying to do)
[22:50] <jahnkeanater> normally i go to the about ubuntu thing to chack
[22:50] <Loshki> techpraxis: I thought you were going to ask sebsebseb some plymouth questions?
[22:51] <sebsebseb> !java | emry
[22:51] <gafir> GeekSquid: i'll write a post on the forum then, thanks
[22:51] <gafir> :-)
[22:51] <MACscr> is there a way to change the minimize buttons, etc, for windows panes to the right side instead of the left?
[22:51] <sebsebseb> !controls | MACscr
[22:51] <jahnkeanater> how do i find out what package i have
[22:51] <sebsebseb> MACscr: yay someone else wanting to do that :)
[22:51] <MACscr> sebsebseb: thanks! =P
[22:51] <sebsebseb> MACscr: np
[22:51] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: it sould show as part of the messages from when you do 'dpkg-reconfigure -a'... there shuold be more than just one line to the error
[22:52] <onetinsoldier> should*
[22:52] <compaq> man...my laptop install was just perfect, but my desktop install isn't going so well.  The video player flashing for a half a second, and then there is no video; thats with totem.  And with mplayer the video is way too bright and red.
[22:52] <jahnkeanater> there is 1 sec
[22:52] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, the grub-pc scripts would never write a 'grub.cfg' without a /boot prefix in linux and initrd (on systems with encrypted root, separate /boot is necessary). so i had to boot from initramfs after manual cryptsetup and activation of lvm pvs
[22:52] <sebsebseb> MACscr: or use another theme, that isn't the default black or grey theme
[22:52] <jahnkeanater> linux-restricted-modules-generic
[22:52] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: not my issue
[22:52] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: Loshki seems to have refered you to the wrong person
[22:52] <Loshki> sebsebseb: dunno, the last thing techpraxis told me was he had plymouth questions. Maybe I misunderstood....
[22:52] <techpraxis> but 2 times out of 3, plymouth bs will interfere and the system will never boot. 1 time out of 3, system will boot (after doing the manual stuff i said) so: i asked Loshki if i could remove plymouth
[22:53] <jeffszusz> since the addition of an "autoremove" option for apt-get, is aptitude still the preferred package manager for Ubuntu and it's spinoffs these days?
[22:53] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: oh
[22:53] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: have you got propritary driver installed or Nivida or ATI?
[22:53] <techpraxis> Loshki, it took me two posts to give basic trajectory of the problem
[22:53] <sebsebseb> for not or above
[22:53] <techpraxis> plymouth is interfering
[22:53] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: ok. well, now you need to use a command line text editor. ever used one before?
[22:53] <Loshki> techpraxis: sebsebseb: finally, we're all on the same page....
[22:53] <techpraxis> after my manual initramfs boot
[22:53] <MACscr> anyone recommend a good ftp client that is very good for managing a 100+ sites and has a very nice built in text editor with tabs and syntax support?
[22:53] <jahnkeanater> is that gedit
[22:54] <jahnkeanater> or
[22:54] <MACscr> im used to using cuteftp pro on windows
[22:54] <emry> Thanks! I found the problem.  After the system upgrade, it did not change the parner link fron karmic to lucid. ^^ I had to edit my repo list.,
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: can you use gedit right now?
[22:54] <jahnkeanater> for what
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> to edit a file
[22:54] <duffydack> MACscr, fireftp plugin for firefox or filezilla are both good clients
[22:54] <|_ocke> MACscr, look in synaptic :P
[22:54] <jahnkeanater> for what file
[22:54] <techpraxis> has anyone picked up NimbleRabit? I am afraid i am not the guy to troubleshoot spdif problems? does anyone in here have better sound expertise than me to help Nimble?
[22:54] <Loshki> MACscr: I like ncftp but it may be too command liney for you...
[22:54] <jahnkeanater> yes i can
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: /var/lib/dpkg/status
[22:55] <jahnkeanater> ok 1 sec
[22:55] <jahnkeanater> now what
[22:55] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: ok, cool. i didn't think you were in X Windows ;-)
[22:55] <jahnkeanater> what that
[22:56] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: you see in there how every package has a 'section' in that file?
[22:56] <jahnkeanater> sure
[22:56] <copb_phoenix> SwedeMike: Thank you so very much for your help. Though I'll have to go through and separate the files a second time, this did indeed fix the errors, and I learned a couple things along the way. The channel's reference for "How to ask for help" is very nice, too. Have a nice day, and, again, thanks.
[22:56] <Loshki> techpraxis: NimbleRabit may simply have to wait until a sound/spdif expert comes on line. Sometimes it's just unavoidable...
[22:56] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, Loshki thanks. so question is still outstanding: if i am correct in that 10.04 cannot handle my LUKS/lvm setup (disk is GPT formatted, yes i do have the parted gpt boot thing fixed for grub), will plymouth keep me from being able to boot after i have manually booted from initramfs and if so
[22:56] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: ok, you need to find the section for linux-restricted-modules-generic, and just delete the entire section for it
[22:57] <MACscr> |_ocke: are you talking about gftp?
[22:57] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: then save the file and try...  sudo apt-get -f install
[22:57] <duffydack> Is gftp even maintained anymore?
[22:57] <techpraxis> Loshki re: Nimble  i was simply putting it out there. i have worked support for years although not in Ubuntu. i know how long it takes on this channel and its okay, its free after all.
[22:57] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: Plymouth as far as I know should boot up fine,  unless you have a propritary Nivdia or ATI driver installed. oh and I think there will be an issue for Intel sometimes even
[22:58] <MACscr> maybe its me, but i have always thought filezilla was way to ws_ftp like or whatever that old 1995 type ftp client is
[22:58] <Loshki> techpraxis: I see lots of hits in google for 'remove plymouth'. Presumably it's not just you...
[22:58] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, what is best page(s) for me to read to brush up/get up to speed with plymouth?
[22:58] <coderipper> is there a native usenet binary client that supports ssl connections?
[22:58] <FoolishOwl> I don't know if gftp is in active development, but it does the job reliably, and has the usual features.
[22:58] <duffydack> coderipper, lottanzb or ninan
[22:59] <sebsebseb> techpraxis: what happens exactly when you try to boot up Ubuntu on the computer?
[22:59] <jahnkeanater> i cant run that command it tells me to run sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem
[22:59] <coderipper> thx, mate.
[22:59] <coderipper> :D
[22:59] <duffydack> coderipper, lottanzb is probably the easiest
[22:59] <FoolishOwl> I'm curious -- is there a way to run a curses/ncurses based application through a Web browser?
[22:59] <onetinsoldier> jahnkeanater: darn. try that command. what package is it giving en error for now?
[23:00] <duffydack> coderipper, ninan is nice but it needs java and uses browser for frontend and isnt just a quick install :)  Ill be glad to walk you through it tho.
[23:00] <badnaam> hello all, why does my firewall rules go inactive when I exit the gufw window and when I start it back, the "enable" checkbox is off
[23:00] <coderipper> i appreciate that, duffydack.  thx.
[23:00] <jahnkeanater> linux-restricted-modules-generic
[23:00] <badnaam> is there a way to keep keep it on, even if the gufw window isn't open?
[23:00] <jahnkeanater> linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-18-generic
[23:01] <techpraxis> sebsebseb, grub.cfg is incorrect, so i have to edit in grub2::eliminate /boot prefix, eliminate /dev/mapper/root-myvg-myvolumename
