[11:08] <ncsat> I anadvertently deleted thhe menu that shutdown, end session ... is there some way to recover it ?
[11:08] <Rashid> hello?
[11:08] <Stargaze> !hi| Rashid
[11:09] <kaolbrec> ncsat, right click on the top bar and "indicator applet session"
[11:09] <kaolbrec> ncsat, I missed out "add new item"
[11:10] <echosystm> does anyone else find it difficult to install a system from scratch using ubuntu?
[11:10] <Stargaze> !details| echosystm
[11:10] <jrib> echosystm: no?
[11:10] <echosystm> just doing a simple apt-get alsa xorg gnome-core, when i start gnome i get tonnes of errors
[11:10] <Rashid> well  i cant seem to use my bluetooth;i'm totally new to linux;my laptop is Toshiba A200-1Z3;and i connect to net through my mobile using bluetooth so pls help me
[11:11] <echosystm> lots of things missing
[11:11] <akuyateh> hi
[11:11] <echosystm> packaging doesnt seem to be very good?
[11:11] <jrib> echosystm: erm, those things are installed by default
[11:11] <echosystm> jrib, if you read what i wrote, you would notice im one of those people who likes to install things from scratch
[11:12] <`kiasecto> Can anyone help me? I installed ubuntu to a primary partition on a disk, but it wrote the grub boot loader to another disk - which has since been removed. Now I need to somehow make a primary partition bootable with grub?
[11:12] <jrib> echosystm: then define "install things from scratch".
[11:12] <echosystm> install ubuntu from an alternate cd with command line (no gnome etc.)
[11:12] <echosystm> then install what i want from there
[11:12] <ncsat> kaolbrec: thanks, its ok now
[11:12] <jrib> echosystm: do you mean the minimal install?
[11:12] <kaolbrec> echosystm, why not Arch, or Crux?
[11:13] <echosystm> ive been running arch for the last 12 months kaolbrec, but i want something more simple to maintain
[11:13] <Rashid> how du u use toshiba bluetooth in ubuntu 9.10?
[11:13] <echosystm> normally i'd use debian but the current kernel doesnt play nice with my hardware, nor does backports
[11:13] <echosystm> im just curious as to why nothing works like this in ubuntu?
[11:14] <Rashid>  how du u use toshiba bluetooth in ubuntu 9.10?
[11:14] <jrib> echosystm: you're being vague.  Describe what your actual errors are.  Most likely, you need to install more than just gnome-core if you want a gnome desktop
[11:14] <stanley_> hi,all
[11:15] <stanley_> i have a question,if anyone could help me,that would be nice!
[11:15] <rsk> !ask | stanley_
[11:15] <jrib> echosystm: whatever you pulled in debian should work in ubuntu
[11:15] <echosystm> well obviously it doesnt jrib
[11:15] <rsk> debian and ubuntu isn't compatible jrib
[11:15] <blackrock> Stargaze: OK here's my thing: http://paste.ubuntu.com/397179/
[11:16] <echosystm> no offence jrib, but i think this conversation is a bit above you
[11:16] <blackrock> typed everything manually :P
[11:16] <hey_boy> Hello all. I want to configure my ubuntu 9.10 to show (and keep) only the last three kernels. How do I do it?
[11:16] <iceroot> jrib: no dont mix debian with ubuntu
[11:16] <jrib> echosystm: heh, good luck with your issue.  But if you want help, ask a question with details
[11:16] <stanley_> lspci can display any hardware infomation, for example, ethernet card,and ifconfig displays any infomation about interface such as eth0. if i have more than one card, how could i know which one use the specify card.
[11:16] <`kiasecto> Hello all! Question: I have ubuntu 9.10 installed on a primary partition. But there is no bootloader/GRUB. What do I do to get it bootable? When I installed ubuntu it installed the boot loader to a different disk, which is now gone.
[11:17] <jrib> rsk, iceroot: I meant package names
[11:17] <echosystm> ok heres details - why when i isntall gnome-core and run it, do i get errors popping up telling me gnome panel plugins are unnavailable?
[11:17] <echosystm> this is poor packaging
[11:17] <echosystm> but why?
[11:17] <Zider> I have a problem with cryptdisk sometimes only creates /dev/mapper/name and sometimes both that and /dev/mapper/name_unformatted.. is there a known problem with this?
[11:17] <Stargaze> blackrock, i do not have a solution, but maybe you can learn something from this link => http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=892657
[11:18] <stanley_> anyone?
[11:18] <Rashid> can someone help me pls?
[11:18] <crackguy> is there any similar service like netcraft to determine the OS a website is running on...?
[11:18] <ncsat> kaolbrec: thanks, how can I put it in the far right ? it doesn't pass over the sound, lan and mail icons
[11:18] <sagaci> Rashid: just ask the question
[11:19] <hey_boy> how can I limit the number of installed kernels on my system?
[11:19] <phrix> hi all... I want to play zynga poker on facebook with flash on firefox, but it got blank... any clue??
[11:19] <echosystm> Rashid, if it doesnt work out of the box, chances are its not supported by the current kernel and it isnt worth trying
[11:19] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, of the same chipset/driver?
[11:19] <sagaci> phrix: have you got flash installed
[11:19] <Stargaze> blackrock, here's another link about the same issue => http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2008-04/msg07944.html
[11:19] <Rashid> yeah how du i use thoshiba bluetooth on ubuntu?
[11:19] <jrib> echosystm: because you installed gnome-core and it doesn't include them.  You probably want something like gnome-desktop-environment
[11:19] <phrix> sagaci, yes...
[11:19] <echosystm> this is my point though jrib - i should not get those errors from installing gnome-core
[11:19] <stanley_> psycho_oreos, oh,no,for example, i have 2 cards with different chipset.
[11:19] <jrib> echosystm: why?
[11:20] <echosystm> plugin settings should be patched in from their own packages, not gnome-core
[11:20] <kaolbrec> ncsat, right click on the other things until you get the option to unlock them
[11:20] <stanley_> and i have interface eth0 and eth1. how do i know which card does eth0 use?
[11:20] <echosystm> this is how it works on debian/arch/fedora/centos
[11:20] <kaolbrec> ncsat, then drag it over there, and re-lock it all
[11:20] <echosystm> why do ubuntu mess up packages like this?
[11:20] <Rashid> are u sure?
[11:20]  * Rashid hit his head
[11:21] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, well usually the first one detected via kernel and outputted via dmesg indicates that should be specified as eth0 whilst the second detected chipset/driver by kernel will become eth1
[11:21] <Stargaze> !why
[11:21] <jrib> echosystm: we're volunteers, we didn't package it
[11:21] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, to resolve that I'd modify udev rules
[11:21] <blackrock> Stargaze: OK, I'll check them out. Here's the messages in normal boot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/397182/
[11:22] <crackguy> is there any similar service like netcraft.com to determine the OS a website is running on...?
[11:22] <stanley_> psycho_oreos, thanks. let me check my dmesg log.
[11:22] <ace> hello i m under a new 9.10 server and when i apt get lighttpd, it failed with
[11:22] <ace> unable to create `/usr/lib/libfam.so.0.0.0.dpkg-new' (while processing `./usr/lib/libfam.so.0.0.0'): Invalid argument
[11:22] <rww> echosystm: Which errors do you get?
[11:22] <jrib> echosystm: check the ubuntu changes from the debian package and see if you can find an explanation I guess.  If it's the case that the debian package didn't have that behavior and the ubuntu one does, then file a bug
[11:22] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, though I can see your problem, it'll be even worse when the drivers alternate between eth0 and eth1
[11:22] <echosystm> rww, just errors saying power management applet is missing etc.
[11:23] <xxx_> HI!! is it posible to print on the shell a small text (an url for instance)  that ive copied before.... i  mean automatically when i call the script, the text to be printed on the shell   thanks!
[11:23] <echosystm> things like this shatter my confidence in ubuntu
[11:23] <Stargaze> blackrock, strange, idd, i haven't seen that error before
[11:23] <stanley_> psycho_oreos, it's boring. sometimes you don't know which interface is used.
[11:23] <echosystm> if theres a reason why its like this, perhaps my confidence can be restored
[11:23] <echosystm> so that is why i am asking
[11:23] <rww> echosystm: Is this on a freshly installed system with a new home directory, or did you copy over your home directory from a previous installation?
[11:23] <echosystm> brand new mate
[11:23] <kaolbrec> xxx_, you mean you want to run a script that prints something in the terminal?
[11:23] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, there are a few solutions but I don't know of an easy way apart from getting dirty with linux CLI
[11:24] <echosystm> i literally installed ubuntu, then apt-get alsa xorg gnome-core
[11:24] <echosystm> then startx
[11:24] <echosystm> and i get errors
[11:24] <xxx_> kaolbrec,  yes i want my little script to print on the terminal the text ive copied(ctrl+C) before
[11:24] <kaolbrec> echosystm, I don't know how stripped down minimal is. Does it have vesa etc?
[11:25] <rww> echosystm: which version of Ubuntu is this on?
[11:25] <echosystm> any
[11:25] <kaolbrec> xxx_, to paste from the clipboard to terminal you can do ctrl+shift+v
[11:25] <ncsat> kaolbrec: on sound and lan it never shows the option to unlock :(
[11:25] <echosystm> ive tried lts, 8.10 and 9.04
[11:25] <echosystm> the behaviour is the same on all of them
[11:26] <xxx_> kaolbrec, i already now that  i want this to be done automatically without my command
[11:26] <ncsat> kaolbrec: sorry for the disconnect
[11:26] <Stargaze> echosystm, in a fewer hours from, there are many more people here, so maybe try and ask your question later today
[11:26] <kaolbrec> xxx_, you can write a bash script to do such a thing
[11:26] <echosystm> ok
[11:26] <stanley_> psycho_oreos, just now i check my dmesg log, find this "[    1.598582] eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xd800, 00:e0:4c:3c:ad:14, IRQ 19
[11:26] <stanley_> "
[11:26] <stanley_> psycho_oreos, that's great! thanks a lot!
[11:26] <stanley_> 10.04 is excellent
[11:26] <FloodBot4> stanley_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:27] <xxx_> kaolbrec, im looking for the command if its possible
[11:27] <kaolbrec> ncsat, lan and sound are part of the notification panel
[11:27] <rww> echosystm: If you wouldn't mind, file a bug about it with all the specifics, link me to it, and I'll try to reproduce it when I get a spare machine for testing.
[11:27] <echosystm> its not a "bug" rww
[11:27] <kaolbrec> ncsat, all those status -yicons for running programs move together.
[11:27] <psycho_oreos> stanley_, hopefully the drivers won't alternate between ethX
[11:28] <kaolbrec> xxx_, well, in a bash script it's just echo yourtexthere
[11:28] <echosystm> its just poor packaging - the default gnome configuration loaded in gnome-core still has references to things that arent actually isntalled with the package
[11:28] <echosystm> does that make sense?
[11:28] <rww> echosystm: Yes. I'm not sure why you don't think that's a bug?
[11:28] <echosystm> theres no bug in the code itself
[11:28] <kaolbrec> echosystm, you mean it expects them to be installed
[11:28] <echosystm> yes
[11:28] <echosystm> and it shuoldnt
[11:29] <blackrock> Stargaze: I could've done a fresh install, but I can't recover my files from the encrypted folder
[11:29] <rww> which is a bug...
[11:29] <kaolbrec> echosystm, not unless it pulled them as dependencies
[11:29] <Stargaze> blackrock, so it's an encrypted folder?
[11:29] <blackrock> yup
[11:29] <kaolbrec> rww, it's not a bug. It's a poor decision.
[11:29] <benlu456> bazhang: Do u know I am from Taiwan?
[11:30] <stanley_> and i have another question about udp. one of my server always gets many many "udp bad checksum" errors. how do i solve it?
[11:30] <blackrock> I don't even remember the passphrase which I set up ages ago :(
[11:30] <blackrock> :P
[11:31] <benlu456> bazhang: what if its wrong?
[11:31] <kaolbrec> ncsat, any luck?
[11:32] <ace> unable to create `/usr/bin/dbmmanage.dpkg-new' (while processing `./usr/bin/dbmmanage'): Invalid argument
[11:32] <ncsat> kaolbrec: mail moves but not sound and lan, I cant even remove them
[11:32] <ace> is it related to 64b?
[11:32] <stanley_> and i have another question about udp. one of my server always gets many many "udp bad checksum" errors. how do i solve it?
[11:33] <disappearedng> hey which format font is the easiest to install
[11:33] <kaolbrec> ncsat, try clicking very slightly to the left of the leftmost icon
[11:33] <psycho_oreos> that is more of a networking question rather than things to do with ubuntu itself.. I'd look at which daemons/services are still using udp and what clients are relying on it
[11:33] <kaolbrec> ncsat, I know that you can move it.
[11:34] <rww> disappearedng: the instructions for ttf fonts are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Manually and look rather straightforward
[11:35] <Spajderix> hi
[11:35] <disappearedng> I realize monospace is awful after my entire life coding in it
[11:35] <ncsat> kaolbrec: your right, clicking on the left of the leftmost works ok
[11:35] <ncsat> kaolbrec: thank you very much
[11:35] <kaolbrec> ncsat, no problem
[11:36] <kaolbrec> Now if you'll excuse me gentlemen, I am going for a nap.
[11:36] <Spajderix> I have two monitors with separate XScreen on nvidia card. Does anyone know a simple way to switch between virtualdesktops/monitors/apps with keyboard shortcut ??
[11:36] <Guest9132> hello friends.  i'm running ubuntu server 9.04 and curious if anyone has experience running an RT kernel on that build.  i'm currently using the default 2.6.28-11-server kernel
[11:37] <echosystm> why do you want RT kernel on a server?
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> disappearedng:  try the 'terminator' font for mono-spaced needs
[11:37] <barata> hallo  .. anybody already does win7-linux dual-boot?
[11:38] <ncsat> barata: eu
[11:38] <ncsat> barata: I
[11:38] <Zider> I do
[11:38] <Guest9132> echo:  i'm running some processes that need very low latency response times to incoming data
[11:38] <Zider> altho I rarely boot into linux nowadays
[11:38] <barata> ncsat, can you access linux fs from win-7?
[11:38] <barata> what driver do you use?
[11:38] <Stargaze> i never boot in Windows
[11:38] <arand> barata: yes, but do you have a follow-up question?
[11:38] <ncsat> Zider: I rarely boot to win :P
[11:38] <suolakurkku> wow i guess it's really cold outside, my soda bottles are exploding on my balcony O.O
[11:39] <Zider> ncsat: linux is fail for games, which I use mostly on this box nowadays :P
[11:39] <barata> yeah .. how to access linux partition directly from win-7?
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> I find most games are 'Fail'
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> barata:  theres tools for ext2/3 but not sure about ext4
[11:39] <barata> what win-driver do you use to read ext3 partition?
[11:39] <arand> barata: not ext4, as far as I know, if you have ext3 there is a driver with some support for acces
[11:39] <Zider> Dr_Willis: well to each his own
[11:39] <suolakurkku> enemy territory = win
[11:40] <barata> yeah .. which one that works for win7
[11:40] <barata> and that you've used yourself
[11:40] <Stargaze> Zider, for games, check http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/html/games.html
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> I dont use win7 - so no idea
[11:40] <Zider> Stargaze: I know which games are available for linux
[11:40] <OerHeks> !fs-driver
[11:40] <suolakurkku> et works on linux too
[11:40] <suolakurkku> and some other ID software games
[11:40] <suolakurkku> Doom 3 is for linux also
[11:41] <Zider> suolakurkku: yeah idsoft is good that way.. unfortunately that's not the kind of games I play
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> id tends to port all their games to linux
[11:41] <zaphodd> anybody try an RT kernel on ubuntu?  just looking for pointers to a pre built kernel and any problems ppl may have had
[11:41] <Stargaze> barata, try http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/media/explore2fs-1.07.zip
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> but then companies that use teh id engines.. often dont bother
[11:41] <barata> explore2fs?
[11:41] <barata> never heard ..
[11:41] <suolakurkku> you can play with emulators too if you like retrogames
[11:41] <suolakurkku> like me
[11:42] <barata> http://www.chrysocome.net/explore2fs
[11:42] <Zider> I do that on the xbox :P
[11:42] <Stargaze> for classic games, check http://maketecheasier.com/play-classic-console-games-in-linux/2009/11/13?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MakeTechEasier+%28Make+Tech+Easier%29&utm_content=Google+Reader
[11:42] <suolakurkku> mmkay
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> SNES :)
[11:42] <suolakurkku> nes and SNES FTW
[11:42] <Zider> suolakurkku: indeed
[11:43] <braqoon> hi does any one have problems connecting via XDMCP  on 9.10? When i try to connect from win box via xing, i go to gdm login and when type my stuff and press enter it's just freeze on this.
[11:43] <echosystm> zaphodd, i dont really think ubuntu is the ideal distro for this kind of thing
[11:43] <echosystm> have you looked into debian?
[11:43] <echosystm> youre likely to get much better support there
[11:44] <echosystm> ubuntu is for people who rarely even see a terminal
[11:44] <zaphodd> echo:  hmm..  kind of already have a bunch of ubuntu installs that would be hard to upgrade
[11:44] <barata> well, explore2fs doesnt support win7 Stargaze
[11:44] <echosystm> ah, fair enough
[11:44] <Zider> echosystm: the ubuntu I run (server) doesn't ahve anything but terminal ;)
[11:45] <arand> barata: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Installable_File_System#ext2.2Fext3 seemw to be the available options
[11:45] <echosystm> yeah Zider, now try asking someone in here a question about it and see how many replies you get :P
[11:45] <echosystm> that was kinda my point
[11:45] <zaphodd> we have played around setting CPU affinities but it's worth trying a full RT kernel as well
[11:46] <zaphodd> just can't seem to find much info on google
[11:46] <Zider> echosystm: most stuff works the same in both, server just lacks the desktop part :P
[11:46] <echosystm> zaphodd, here...
[11:46] <echosystm> http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/linux-image
[11:46] <Stargaze> zaphodd, consider yourself a pioneer, then, and making history :)
[11:46] <echosystm> linux-image-2.6.31-9-rt
[11:46] <rww> zaphodd: as far as prebuilt kernels go, you'd want linux-image-rt from the repos.
[11:47] <zaphodd> yeah guess I can get the prebuilt & give it a spin.  who knows how it will function
[11:47] <echosystm> probably horribly :P
[11:47] <echosystm> best of luck!
[11:47] <rww> zaphodd: or linux-rt if you also need restricted modules
[11:48] <zaphodd> ok this should be fun
[11:48] <zaphodd> linux must have changed.  i started running it in 2006
[11:48] <sara1> where I downlod software BRL-CAD?
[11:48] <zaphodd> ppl weren't discussing nes emulators in linux irc chats back then
[11:49] <Zider> first time I ran linux was in the 90s sometime..
[11:49] <zaphodd> but everyone knew everything about kernel flavors
[11:49] <Sato1_> Hello, When I enter  any channel I seem to have all the old chat in there instead of a blank window and the same with PM. How can i stop that and delete the old saved stuff. Thanks
[11:49] <echosystm> the linux community was a lot smarter back then zaphodd, but smaller haha
[11:49] <rww> Sato1_: which IRC client are you using?
[11:50] <zaphodd> what i don't get is, why do ppl who aren't kernel/terminal literate run linux at all
[11:50] <Sato1_> xchat gnome
[11:50] <zaphodd> might as well use windows
[11:50] <Sato1_> i am a newbie
[11:50] <mgolisch> zaphodd: its free?
[11:50] <echosystm> because they cant afford a mac and love anything that isnt windows, just because it isnt windows
[11:50] <crackguy> is there any similar service like netcraft.com from where i can determine the OS a website is running/hosted on...?
[11:50] <zaphodd> yeah but the whole point of loving things that aren't windows is understanding the systme underneath
[11:50] <echosystm> they live for that air of elitism of telling people they are running "unix"
[11:51] <rww> zaphodd: everyone has to start somewhere
[11:51] <Dan_E> Satol_, settings pref logging
[11:51] <nate_> my mother isn't terminal literate.  she uses linux
[11:51] <zaphodd> mothers are a different story :)
[11:51] <Stargaze> getting used to the GUI is what makes people love an OS
[11:52] <rww> Dan_E: I don't see that in xchat-gnome
[11:52] <nate_> kind of nice being able to browse without getting click jacked constantly
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> Its amazing what a little training can do.
[11:52] <arand> zaphodd: echosystm: Somewhat slipping -> #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[11:52] <Dan_E> XChat 2.8.6 sorry
[11:52] <zaphodd> hey if I get some new kernels (linux-image-rt), will ubuntu automatically set the new kernel to boot by default?  (hoping not)
[11:53] <rww> Sato1_: I don't think the option's available in xchat-gnome. Normal xchat (in the xchat package) can do it, though.
[11:53] <theadmin> zaphodd: It will, old kernels will be in GRUB menu, selectable
[11:53] <stevecam> Stargaze, you should try the CLI
[11:53] <zaphodd> theadmin:  thx
[11:53] <stevecam> that's what i love about linux
[11:54] <Sato1_> rww: Thanks. Guess i have to live with it
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> Sato1_:  check the log settings and tell it to not save logs..
[11:54] <Sato1_> i unchecked that
[11:54] <Stargaze> stevecam, why do you say that?
[11:54] <Sato1_> but it keeps showing every log of the channel
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> then use the clear log menu item for each channel perhaops
[11:55] <crackguy> is there any similar service like netcraft.com from where i can determine the OS a website is running/hosted on...?
[11:55] <Dr_Willis> a read of the xchat docs/help is also handy
[11:55] <rww> Dr_Willis: xchat (and thus xchat-gnome) has a separate set of logs for scrollback. apparently the xchat-gnome developers elected to remove the preferences relating to it.
[11:55] <stevecam> Stargaze, have you ever used the command line in libux?
[11:55] <Stargaze> stevecam, all the time, what are you trying to say?
[11:55] <Dr_Willis> rww:  theres proberly setable options vya the command line. or the right click menus on the channel tabs. I dont use xchat any more so thats about all i can say
[11:56] <rww> Dr_Willis: it's definitely settable in /xchat's/ preferences. xchat-gnome is not xchat.
[11:56] <stevecam> you said that a gui makes a person falls in love with an OS, i love the CLI
[11:56] <Dr_Willis> rww:  first thing i do with xchat0gnome is delete it :)
[11:56] <abusleem> hi
[11:56] <Sato1_> Dr_Willis: thanks
[11:56] <theadmin> abusleem: Hello
[11:56] <Sato1_> Dr_Willis: I cant even do that
[11:56] <rww> ubottu: ot | stevecam, Stargaze
[11:57] <Stargaze> stevecam, 97% of users worldwide does not want to use the CLI
[11:57] <Sato1_> i delete it and it comes back
[11:57] <theadmin> Stargaze: Huh, i'm in the other 3%, i guess
[11:57] <Dr_Willis> Sato1_:  i suggest not using xchat-gnome but use the normal xchat
[11:57] <stevecam> rww, w/e
[11:57] <Stargaze> theadmin, stevecam its because we're an elite ;)
[11:58] <Sato1_> Dr_Willis: How do i delete it even? i delete it and it says installing program
[11:58] <Dr_Willis> Sato1_:  use the packatge manager.. install xchat.. just dont use xchat-gnome
[11:58] <theadmin> xchat-gnome is a total bleh, wonder why do they even need it :/
[11:59]  * om26er thinks there is no gui IRC client currently being actively developed gtk
[12:00] <theadmin> om26er: I dunno, i'm a pidgin user lol
[12:00] <rww> om26er: umm. xchat? pidgin?
[12:00] <rww> om26er: probably many more :)
[12:00] <Sato1_> thanks guys
[12:00] <om26er> rww, the last version of xchat came in 2008
[12:00] <om26er> rww, pidgin is an IM client also
[12:01] <Dr_Willis> i still perfer some of the features in the OLD xchats
[12:01] <gain> hi all
[12:01] <theadmin> Hi, gain
[12:01] <rww> om26er: so?
[12:01] <gain> waiting for beta1...
[12:01] <Zider> well, how much can you really develop an IRC client? eventually, it will be "finished"
[12:01] <Pici> gain : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.
[12:01] <Pici> !ot
[12:01] <DaemonFC> theadmin, I had wondered that myself. It uses the same resources that XChat does, XChat is already a GTK+ app, and XChat-GNOME just removes features
[12:01] <gain> Pici: thx
[12:01] <xxx_> how do i print the clipboard on the console?
[12:02] <DaemonFC> it seems like a futile venture and it's not even capable of running all XChat plugins
[12:02] <theadmin> xxx_: Middle click or right click -> Paste
[12:02] <amaurea> After uninstalling pulse audio, I cannot use the volume buttons on my keyboard to adjust the volume. How do I fix this?
[12:02] <xxx_> theadmin, i mean via a  shell command if it is possible!
[12:03] <theadmin> xxx_: Oh. Doubt it is.
[12:03] <DelphiWorld> hi friends/folk
[12:03] <crackguy> is there any similar service like netcraft.com from where i can determine the OS a website is running/hosted on...?
[12:03] <DelphiWorld> what is the default COM1 device name in ubuntu linux?
[12:03] <xxx_> theadmin, ok thanks buddy
[12:03] <amaurea> crackguy: can't nmap do that?
[12:04] <Dr_Willis> DelphiWorld:  i think it may be /dev/ttys0  or S0
[12:04] <Torrentowy> hey guys
[12:04] <crackguy> amaurea, thanks, i didn't know nmap
[12:04] <Torrentowy> is there any software to flash sony ericsson mobiles from ubuntu ?
[12:05] <amaurea> crackguy: nmap has a steep learning curve, but is very flexible
[12:05] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: thank you a lot
[12:05] <Seze> have problem to install rome total war. anyone ?
[12:06] <suolakurkku> today's betarelease time! \o/
[12:06] <theadmin> Seze: Maybe you should ask in #winehq if it's a windoze game
[12:06] <Seze> oki thanx
[12:06] <Seze> try there
[12:07] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: i have tty0, i am trying it
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> DelphiWorld:  tty0 i think is different from ttys0
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> DelphiWorld:  but its been ages since i last used serial ports. the names may have chnged
[12:08] <theadmin> I think i don't even have any serial ports :/
[12:08] <DelphiWorld> anyone know?
[12:08] <DelphiWorld> how do i use minicom?
[12:08] <DelphiWorld> any other program other thant minicom?
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> read its docs :)
[12:08] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: man can't read it i am using ssh with a screen reader that don't read full window;)
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> it has menus somehow to set teh rates  and ports and enab le echoing.
[12:09]  * DelphiWorld is connecting from a ubuntu server
[12:09] <barata> name 10 linux apps which are practically DEAD by now, but used to be very functional
[12:09] <barata> if you can answer that, you've used linux for at least 10 years
[12:09] <theadmin> barata: That'd be highly offtopic.
[12:09] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: the arg for menu is -s
[12:09] <theadmin> barata: I can't :P I use Linux for 1 year only
[12:10] <Zider> barata: I don't see how that is related to running linux for a long time..
[12:10] <barata> name 10 linux distros that are DEAD ... but used to exist
[12:10] <barata> if you can answer that, you know linux 'history' good enough
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> barata:  and it belongs in #ubuntu-ot
[12:10] <Zider> yes, but it doesn't mean you've used it for long :P
[12:11] <Zider> oh there's a channel for that? neat
[12:11] <barata> well ... sure ... ;)
[12:12] <Zider> Dr_Willis: heeey, that channel is empty! :(
[12:12] <rww> Zider, Dr_Willis: #ubuntu-offtopic, not #ubuntu-ot
[12:12] <Zider> oh
[12:12] <Dr_Willis> nah.. stay in -OT :)  you can be the op.
[12:12] <Zider> Dr_Willis: I don't wanna be op
[12:13] <rww> since channel creation inside the Ubuntu namespace isn't willy-nilly... no ;P
[12:13] <Zider> willywhat?
[12:13] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: sory! got ttyS!
[12:14] <Sunkan85> Hi. Anyone here know hot to remote a win7 pc from ubuntu? I can remote from Win to Win but don't get Remote Desktop in Ubuntu to work.
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> DelphiWorld:  Yep CASE is imporntant
[12:14] <Zider> Sunkan85: vnc
[12:14] <theadmin> Sunkan85: You might want to look at jrdesktop
[12:15] <DelphiWorld> Sunkan85: vnc?
[12:15] <DelphiWorld> Dr_Willis: so i used ttyS0, how do i connect through minicom or any progtram?
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> DelphiWorld:  with a terminal program youuse its settings/menus to select what serial device. then the baud rate and other settings as needed
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> Old-skool BBS days info here :)
[12:17] <Sunkan85> have vnc installed on the win pc but don't get it to work in ubuntu. din't get the linux version installed so tryed the win version via Wine but no lucky. I'm noob in ubuntu so i might do wrong
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> I notice that  Konsole has a 'zmodem' upload menu item.. takes me back to the BBS days of old.
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> I wonder if konsole can work as a serial terminalk also
[12:17] <Zider> ooo zmodem <3
[12:18] <DelphiWorld> Sunkan85: use web viewer;) :P
[12:20] <Paulo39> hi, can you tell me if the grub in jaunty (9.04) is grub 1 or grub 2?
[12:20] <Dr_Willis> 9.,04 defaults to grub1
[12:20] <Dr_Willis> 9.10 defaults to grub2
[12:21] <Sunkan85> I did try out an web viewer called LogMeIn but to slow since u run it thru the web browser
[12:21] <Paulo39> Dr_Willis: ok, thanks
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> I think i got that right.
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> You could install grub2 on 9.04 if you wanted.. and grub2 will NOT be installed if you Upgrade to 9.10
[12:22] <amartin> hello, I'm compiling new stable kernel <IP_ADDRESS> on ubuntu karmic, but encounterd this error: http://pastebin.com/G1Gi1yre

[12:28] <benlu456> jastor: or will it be useful in Lucid?
[12:30] <Debijan> terry_: i think wlan is working, he detects it and i can connect to it, on my main pc ( this one ) i can even see that my eee pc is trying to connect in the router menu, but firefox wont open any websites ( failed to connect... as if theres no connection at all )
[12:31] <bytejumper> Hi All

[12:31] <bytejumper>
[12:31] <bytejumper> any ideas ?
[12:31] <FloodBot4> bytejumper: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:31] <terry_> Debijan: Oh, ok.  Let's see what's in /etc/resolv.conf   Do:  pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf
[12:32] <bytejumper> http://paste.ubuntu.com/397207/ what's the problem ?
[12:33] <Debijan> terry_: Linux jantux 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686

[12:34] <nvsbl> hey everybody, why does gwibber keep breaking spontaneously for me?
[12:34] <nvsbl> does anyone else have this problem?
[12:34] <terry_> Debijan: Open a terminal window and type:  pastebinit /etc/resolv.conf  #And give us the URL it produces
[12:35] <terry_> Debijan: Or just do:  cat /etc/resolv.conf   #And see if you  see the IP of your router.  Or tell us what you see.
[12:36] <Debijan> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:36] <terry_> Debijan: And that is the IP of your router?
[12:36] <Debijan> yes
[12:36] <researcher1> how to save command prompt run into log file or save as a file?
[12:36] <terry_> Debijan: Ok good.  Now see what it says when you do:  route -n
[12:36] <Debijan> thats the standard gateway ( used also on my main pc )
[12:37] <echosystm> what do you mean command prompt run researcher1?
[12:37] <terry_> Debijan: route -n    #Do you again get <IP_ADDRESS>  ?
[12:37] <Debijan> it says_ Kernel IP routing table: Destination is <IP_ADDRESS> | Gateway <IP_ADDRESS> | Genmask <IP_ADDRESS> | Flags U | Metric 2 | Ref 0 | Use 0 | iface wlan0
[12:38] <echosystm> you can pipe the output of a command to file, if thats what you mean researcher1
[12:38] <terry_> Debijan: iwconfig    #What does that tell you?
[12:38] <benlu456> bytejumper: Do u know about SDL connect by net manager?
[12:38] <Debijan> theres also another line ( <IP_ADDRESS> ) but i think thats not relevant
[12:38] <echosystm> for example $ ls > log.txt

[12:57] <pradeep> i have karmic installed, apparently the suspend function does not work:( any idea?
[12:57] <researcher1> not really
[12:57] <maxlamer> paranoid_pedlar:  morning? :O, its 11pm :P
[12:58] <benwa-ktm__> Does Wine or Playonlinux exists for ppc?
[12:58] <benlu456> researcher1: do you know pppoeconf?
[12:58] <paranoid_pedlar> I realize that ubuntu is coming out with a new (lts) release. I'm using karmic, and have tried a lot of new programs from ppa and others. Since karmic won't be supported in April, should I ditch karmic and install a beta of the next release?
[12:58] <basncy> liuqin, hi
[12:58] <paranoid_pedlar> maxlamer, ah its only 9 here
[12:59] <researcher1> benlu456: no
[12:59] <liuqin> hiii
[12:59] <benwa-ktm__> paranoid_pedlar, no it's 2 pm... ;)
[12:59] <rww> paranoid_pedlar: karmic will be supported for 18 months from its release, which was October 2009, so until April 2011.

[13:00] <rww> paranoid_pedlar: and no, you shouldn't install a beta of lucid. it's not released yet for a reason :)
[13:00] <BluesKaj> researcher1, benlu456 , this tutorial is an alternative to using network managers and it worls very well for ethernet connections, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[13:00] <prix83> sudo apt-get install /home/prix83/Scrivania/EarthLights.....is it right ????
[13:00] <rww> benlu456: WINE isn't available for PPC. I don't know what playonlinux is.

[13:01] <basncy> liuqin, hey！
[13:01] <rww> benwa-ktm__: Adobe's official flash plugin also isn't available for PPC linux. You might find gnash or swfdec better than nothing, though they're far from perfect.
[13:01] <benlu456> BluesKaj: Do u know DSL setup using Network manager
[13:02] <rww> paranoid_pedlar: Yep. regular Ubuntu releases are supported for 18 months from release, LTSes are 3 years on desktops and 5 on server.
[13:02] <benwa-ktm__> rww, yeah, it does not work, even with swfdec
[13:02] <researcher1> thanks
[13:02] <BluesKaj> benlu456, it's pretty automatic with nm

[13:09] <nilsma> how to access the bot factoid?

[13:10] <nilsma> !bot | ssh
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  i set mine to use LABEL instead of UUID :)

[13:10] <xinau> hi
[13:10] <xinau> how to increase the fontsize in xterm ?
[13:10] <arand> prix83: Theeming is impossible/very hard on karmics version of gdm,
[13:10] <iceroot> xinau: right click, properties
[13:11] <xinau> iceroot, can I do it by command ?
[13:11] <xinau> xterm -??? iceroot
[13:11] <paranoid_pedlar> brianherman, windows? I tried a bunch of howto's but still couldn't add my windows to grub2. I've never had a problem with grub though.
[13:11] <iceroot> xinau: xterm --help
[13:11] <prix83> arand, so i can't tray???
[13:11] <brianherman> paranoid_pediar: just go back to grub 1
[13:11] <Martijn> iceroot : GET /phpmyadmin/ HTTP/1.1" 200 436
[13:11] <nilsma> thanks btw :)
[13:12] <cenobyte> i need help does anyone in the room know how to convert .cab file to iso files
[13:12] <arand> prix83: I think if you install the old version of gdm it might work..
[13:12] <benlu456> Is somebody using DSL?
[13:13] <xinau> iceroot, then it should be in .xdefaults
[13:13] <prix83> arand, can you explain me shrtly what's gdm??
[13:13] <Martijn> no really phpmyadmin related errormessages
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> prix83:  the program that does the 'login screen' is gdm. its been undergoing changes lately
[13:13] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, I'm not following? I did better brianherman, I trashed it, and am happy with karmic. Plus I'm having fun with openoffice extentions. Wish I knew about them before
[13:14] <jake1> hey room i have porblems w/ sounds on DVDs and in rythem box the rest of the system has sounds like the system beeps and things like sykpe have sound
[13:14] <brianherman> who do i talk to if i want to do gsoc for ubuntu
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  its odd that the update-grub stuff dident see/auto add windows.
[13:15] <prix83> Dr_Willis, tnk u..
[13:15] <disappearedng> hey does mmv have a confirm overwrite flag?
[13:15] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, it missed two ntfs partitions
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  2 different installs of windows? or a Install and a 'restore' partition? It found both mine. (install and restore)
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> Too bad it dident label the restore as being such.. :)
[13:17] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis,  And I couldn't add them as hard as I tried. I got some errors saying I had to chkdsk for my ntfs partitions, and reboot windows, but how the heck am I supposed to do that if I can't see them in grub. One a windows, and one for media
[13:19] <rww> disappearedng: mmv or mv?
[13:20] <BluesKaj> paranoid_pedlar, ntfs's all on one drive ?
[13:20] <terry_> brianherman: No, (you mean mv. Right?)
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:   I have some windows 'live cd's' :) that i tracked down from... err. somewhere. :)
[13:21] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, I was going to use a bootdisk to do chkdsk but how would I reboot? meh, I really don't care. The only reason I had it installed is to learn how to protect your pc when using windows. To many conflicting ideas to get a firm answer or decision. Trying to come up with something automated, so I don't have to actually be there to setup my moms computer. Two ntfs partitions and three linux. /boot, /root, home
[13:21] <terry_> brianherman: The file manager does tho.
[13:21] <rmt2> How is the automatic update of /etc/hosts in the event of a change to /etc/hostname handled?
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  i tend to keep linux and windows on their own hd's and keep grub on the linux hd.  lets me easially boot windows without grub that way
[13:21] <fumanchu182> iceroot, grub2 is hawt, it is pretty cool now that if i go into synaptic and remove the old kernel file it automagically updates the kernel list on grub's menu, "I see what you did there." comes to mind.
[13:22] <djkk> I can't gurb from 2.6.31-20-generic
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  with grub2 i got a 'ubuntu.iso' file saved in /boot/ i can  boot from a special grub entry to reinstall/repair also. :)
[13:22] <brianherman> terry_:what are u talking about i am very slow
[13:22] <rww> fumanchu182: it did that in grub1, too ;)
[13:22] <nilsma> #vnc is slightly dead, i hope noone minds if i ask quick Q here: easiest way of connecting from ubuntu to win 7 (starter home edition)? or, the way with the least amount of installing/preparation on the win7 pc?
[13:22] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, sounds like a good idea, accept I can't do that since I'm on a laptop. And I built my live windows with ubcd4win. Unless I can do that with an external drive?
[13:23] <fumanchu182> rww, it never worked for me always had to edit the menu file
[13:23] <terry_> brianherman: Was trying to answer your question.
[13:23] <djkk> but I can gurb from 2.6.31-14-generic
[13:23] <rww> ah
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  You can boot iso from external drive. or install to external drive. but ive rarely done that
[13:23] <Mohammad[B]> how i can set proxy with user and pass word on terminal
[13:23] <Mohammad[B]> ?
[13:23] <rww> disappearedng: assuming you meant mv, "mv -i".
[13:23] <Corbo> afternoon
[13:23] <disappearedng> no, I mean mmv
[13:23] <djkk> I can't gurb from 2.6.31-20-generic, but I can gurb from 2.6.31-14-generic! what is the problem?
[13:24] <terry_> Mohammad[B]: Please restate your quesion more clearly.
[13:24] <prix83> chat about amule please???
[13:24] <jake1> no dvd playback on ubuntu 9.04
[13:24] <jacek_> hi! it's my first time on the xchat... i have problems with mounting. Automounting suddenly turned off, if I mount anything manually I cannot copy anytihnig (copying stops after 64kb).It;s not the issue of fstab (I didn't change anything there), permissions, or filesystem. what's wrong?
[13:24] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, I've been talking with some ruby programmers about whether I need to be in windows to make sure the script works and they said no, unless I"m using unix specific tools. I think if I have to, I'll upgrade my laptop's memory and run windowz in virtual

[13:27] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, I wish there was an easy answer when recommending software security.
[13:27] <nibbler> xxx_: com1 ; com2
[13:27] <Dr_Willis> paranoid_pedlar:  security is very much  a process and 'habbit' :) of doing things properly. NO magic Bullets for that.

[13:30] <xxx_> nibbler, something like   com1 (com2)       .... BUT nibbler  keep the order as it is  com1 and then com2
[13:30] <paranoid_pedlar> Dr_Willis, I tried explaining that to my parents. They know why they're getting problems. And if my mom hadn't paid for her windows oem, I'm sure she would us linux, but to her, it would be wasting her money. Plus I have to argue with my Sisters fiance about why Linux she should use linux. But he went to programming for a year in college and knows so much more about computers than I.

[13:37] <BrixSat> how can i check if i have the right drivers for audio, video....
[13:38] <paranoid_pedlar> BrixSat, lsmod I think
[13:38] <xxx_> nibbler,  sorry man... it doesnt work... is it possible at least to save somewhere(like a variable ), the  text that xsel returns  and then call the youtube-dl  ?  like youtube-dl VARIABLE  ?
[13:38] <ruge> paranoid_pedlar: yep, all 4 of my cores show activity on my system monitor
[13:38] <ruge> Does anyone here have experience in Virtualbox?
[13:38] <paranoid_pedlar> ruge, I'm going to check mine out
[13:38] <eremite_> ruge, yes
[13:38] <nibbler> xxx_: $(xsel) is replaces by your clipboard, try echo $(xsel)
[13:38] <Stargaze> !anyone| ruge
[13:39] <BrixSat> paranoid_pedlar,  well that output is for geeks (sor of speaking), im no expert
[13:39] <xxx_> nibbler, yes  but still it doesnt give any priority to the xsel command

[13:40] <ruge> I just installed virtualbox, the sun microsystems one. I have an XP install on it, with 3GB ram and 3 cores available to it. However its so scratchy, for example i click and it responds after 3-4 seconds. Anyone know why this may be the case??
[13:40] <vinicius> if i run find . -mtime -1 on a bash script, the output is different from doing it directly on the terminal
[13:40] <xxx_> nibbler, if i dont have the url first, from where the youtube-dl will read from?
[13:40] <fumanchu182> ruge, because it is a virtual machine lol
[13:40] <nibbler> xxx_: that makes no sense, if "youtube-dl <content of your clipboard> works, then youtube-dl $(xsel) works aswell
[13:40] <vinicius> whats wrong, then?
[13:40] <Ayub> des
[13:40] <ruge> fumanchu182: ive seen people run vboxes as smooth as fresh installs
[13:41] <fumanchu182> well i have never had that luxury and sorry i cannot be of more help
[13:41] <daniel1234> ruge: can be that you don't have your virtualization mode enabled in bios
[13:41] <xxx_> nibbler, not on my linux box... anyways man thanks for your time and help!!
[13:41] <fumanchu182> i always found it more tolerable to install virtualbox on windows and virtualize ubuntu
[13:41] <delfick> Hi, How do I give a user sudo priveleges via the command line ?
[13:41] <BrixSat> delfick,  sudo su
[13:41] <daniel1234> ruge: can be that you have a normal harddisk (not ssd) and have a lot of disk-io
[13:41] <ruge> daniel1234: i actually just turned that on ;) my vbox wasnt even booting before i did that heh
[13:41] <fumanchu182> delfick, they have to be part of the sudo'ers list/file
[13:41] <delfick> BrixSat: as in another user
[13:41] <Yehia> i would like to remove some program from my system and i wanted to make sure - if i will do sudo ---and remove       will it remove all the files related to this program - or there will be some other files saved in some place like what is happening with windows?
[13:41] <erUSUL> daniel1234: sudo adduser $USER admin
[13:41] <ruge> daniel1234: well, its installed on a normal SATA drive.
[13:42] <nibbler> xxx_: of course its up to your shell, but this should be bash...
[13:42] <BrixSat> how can i check if i have the right drivers for audio, video....
[13:42] <fumanchu182> and if you want to execute a command as another it is sudo -u username
[13:42] <BrixSat> cause i got no sound and no visual efects
[13:42] <Guest97276> "-1" in this case is a variable
[13:42] <fumanchu182> well peace out guys going into windows lande
[13:42] <paranoid_pedlar> ruge, hah, that's pretty cool.

[13:43] <tbrock> i mean i get the cherrypy error when i try to go to localhost/mediawiki
[13:43] <daniel1234> ruge: i haven't used virtualbox, but usually if you use virtualization with graphics, then lack of proper graphics driver in your virtual machine can make it run very slow. i know you can get hardware acceleration in virtualbox though, not sure how..
[13:43] <erUSUL> Yehia: then check if anything was left behind in your home (home folders are not touched by install/remove routines)
[13:43] <erUSUL> BrixSat: graphic card?

[13:44] <xxx_> nibbler, thanks buddy!!!!!!! that was the problem i used the GNOME-terminal... it works on the bash shell
[13:44] <paranoid_pedlar> Yehia, don't use synaptic to remove, erUSUL advice is good
[13:44] <erUSUL> BrixSat: so the problem is low resolution? System>Preferences>display does not help ?

[13:45] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  yes :D and what about audio»
[13:46] <Ritley> i just upgraded from 8.04 to 9.10, running on VMware and my audio (login was actually heard) plays fast, connecting to a uPnP server with Rhythm box, playing mostly MP3 files there doesn't seem to be any audio, but a 5 minute song is played in 15-20 seconds, anyone have any ideas on how to fix that?
[13:46] <erUSUL> BrixSat: that would be trickier; check that it is not muted in the Volume icon do right click
[13:47] <erUSUL> BrixSat: you will se two options Mute (a checkbox) and Preferences
[13:47] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  no all on and even on the shell using alsamixer is all on 100%
[13:47] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all !
[13:47] <eremite_> I lost a partition while I was installing and power went out.  Since then I have reinstalled and repartitioned, however, fdisk still finds the partition.  It shares the exact same "Start" number/point as another partition.  It is an "extended" partiton and the other partitions are NTFS and Linux & Linux Swap.  How can I recover this? Full HD format did not solve and gparted only see's disk as 230gb not 250gb.
[13:47] <^mNotIntelligent> has anyone download the 10.4 beta ?
[13:47] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  yes on preferencies selecting tab equipment i have none

[13:49] <iceroot> bscape: getent group
[13:50] <Ritley> bscape, might be $sudo cat /etc/group
[13:50] <erUSUL> BrixSat: :/ can you paste « ls /dev/snd/* » output ?
[13:50] <iceroot> bscape: and to see the groups a user belongs to use "id username"
[13:50] <terry_> sobczyk: Hard to tell. Check your HD
[13:50] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  sure 1 min
[13:50] <iceroot> Ritley: no, because there can be additional groups like groups from ldap, so always use gtent group
[13:50] <bscape> getent group worked best, thanks guys :)

Afaik, Apparmor doesn't support having multiple profiles for one binary and it doesn't support "inheritance".. And you shouldn't touch files from other packages. Does anyone have ideas?
[13:54] <^mNotIntelligent> Dolp, you are not able to unzip them ?
[13:54] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  any ideia?

[13:59] <katsuodo> what is the best procedure to upgrade from 8.04.4 to 9.10 tried yesterday and it would not mount /?
[13:59] <unop> terry_, that tells you YOUR address not the user's address
[14:00] <unop> paranoid_pedlar, any of the apt tools will do -- synaptic, aptitude, etc
[14:00] <terry_> unop: Well, he asked about how to get an "ip address"
[14:00] <erUSUL> BrixSat: so the sound card has drivers .... what card does alsamixer show ?
[14:00] <ndo> can someone tell me if this have already been fixed? There is a problem with the configuration server.
[14:00] <ndo> (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)
[14:00] <Blizzerand> How to download live stream videos in Linux.
[14:01] <unop> terry_, yes, and he did qualify that question too with "from a user on your box" -- heh.
[14:01] <paranoid_pedlar> unop, synaptic removes stuff I want to keep
[14:01] <erUSUL> xtjacob: serial via a usb to serial converter or via a real serial port
[14:01] <terry_> Blizzerand: what live stream videos?  From where?
[14:01] <BrixSat> erUSUL,   Card: HDA SIS966   │ Chip: Realtek ALC660-VD
[14:01] <Dolp> ^mNotIntelligent: anything?
[14:01] <Blizzerand> terry_ : From internet lol
[14:01] <xtjacob> erUSUL: real serial port, i think it's /dev/ttys0, but how do i get the gps working now?
[14:01] <terry_> Blizzerand: Ok, well that narrows it down.  Ok
[14:01] <aurilliance> I need to check if the ubuntu I just downloaded is correct, where can i find the md5 sum for it?
[14:02] <Blizzerand> terry_ : realPlay can do that in windows but not in Linux :(
[14:02] <unop> paranoid_pedlar, do any of the other tools do the same? apt-get perhaps?
[14:02] <iceroot> !md5 | aurilliance
[14:02] <girlgonegeek> Hi Everyone!
[14:02] <terry_> Blizzerand: Well, unless you tell us what you are trying to download and were from, we will not be able to tell you much about it.
[14:03] <Nikolai_D> Hi guys, can someone tell me if the auto logon issue of 9.10 have already been fixed?
[14:03] <erUSUL> BrixSat: so everything looks ok but no sound? not even in « gstreamer -properties » ? (launch it from terminal make sure you have pulseaudio in both sound systems)
[14:03] <erUSUL> xtjacob: that i do not know. maybe search for some gps apps in synaptic ...
[14:03] <terry_> Blizzerand: But you might be able to use gxine
[14:03] <purvesh> any 1 know abt screen recordin software for ubuntu 9.10 ? , purvesh
[14:04] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  gstreamer does not exist
[14:04] <Blizzerand> terry_ : I didn't mean anything specific , there are many softwares in Windows that let you download videos (found  in format ) . But I cannot find any such software in linux
[14:04] <paranoid_pedlar> unop, I'm not sure yet. But the reason I ask, is because I would like to be able to browse all installed software, then I can determine what I want to remove
[14:04] <erUSUL> BrixSat: sorry is without the space « gstreamer-properties »
[14:05] <paranoid_pedlar> does software center show all the packages or just some of them?
[14:05] <unop> paranoid_pedlar, then synaptic is probably the easiest way to do this.
[14:05] <terry_> Blizzerand: gxine, mplayer, totem
[14:05] <Dolp> ^mNotIntelligent: anything?
[14:06] <Blizzerand> terry_ : How do I download videos with them ?
[14:06] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  no pulse audio and test button does not give audio, only on OSS i get sound
[14:06] <hexdump> is there anyway somebody could help me with this script I'm having problems with?
[14:07] <meitnerium> hexdump, what script and what problem?
[14:07] <^mNotIntelligent> Dolp, no idea.. still searching
[14:07] <hexdump> maybe somebody can identify what's wrong with it.  I'm getting syntax error near unexpected token 'do'
[14:07] <hexdump> here it goes
[14:07] <erUSUL> BrixSat: :/
[14:07] <BrixSat> erUSUL,  im also  :/
[14:07] <terry_> Blizzerand: Depends on where from, but here is an example:
[14:07] <terry_> gxine http://viewers.multicastmedia.com/asx_files/EWTN_Channel55_English_DomesticEnglish_500k.asx
[14:07] <hexdump> for in in $(find . -name *.avi) ; do mv -v $i foo/ ; done
[14:07] <vinicius_> i got a problem here... it's [ find ...args... | tar -cvf file.tar - ], but some of the files have namespaces on it
[14:08] <meitnerium> what language?
[14:08] <sipior> hexdump: "for i in..."
[14:08] <BrixSat> well i got to go erUSUL  thanks for all the help :) im will be back
[14:09] <terry_> Blizzerand: You can install gxine plugin or mplayer plugin for firefox if  you would like to do it via the browser.  It's up to you.
[14:09] <erUSUL> BrixSat: in the sound preferences again does anything change Output conector (in the output tab) or the profie in the hardare tab (the second one) ???
[14:09] <hexdump> I know I can do sudo find ~ -iname "*.avi*" -exec mv -v {} /foo \;
[14:09] <hexdump> oh
[14:09] <erUSUL> Blizzerand: ok; good luck
[14:09] <hexdump> sipior:  that's what i messed up u say for i in?
[14:09] <hexdump> ah
[14:09] <jatt> hi, I created a crontab with crontab -e to run a script every 5 minutes but the script doesn't run (it has the execution bit set and it logs its output to a file in /tmp).
[14:09] <hexdump> let me give er a shot
[14:09] <terry_> Blizzerand: As long as you have codecs to run the various types of video formats, they will play.
[14:09] <terry_> !video | Blizzerand

[14:09] <Blizzerand> terry_ : Thanks , I will give it a try
[14:10] <Blizzerand> terry_ : I hate that bot btw
[14:10] <sobczyk_> terry_, ok I used my n900, what should I look for in the hparm output
[14:10] <benlu456> jastor: Hello
[14:10] <jatt> what could be the problem? The crontab looks like this:

[14:10] <Blizzerand> !beta
[14:10] <jatt> ikonia: yes I tried this too :) I shortened it out when I pasted it here. But in the crontab is a full path.
[14:11] <erUSUL> Blizzerand: sorry; tab completion error :)

[14:11] <ikonia> topic
[14:11] <terry_> Blizzerand: Hate it all you like. That is your choice.   To me, it is very helpful, brings up information for us without us having to search for it.
[14:11] <ikonia> jatt: is the user in the cron allow/deny file ?
[14:11] <QueenZ> i know but it's not out yet is it?
[14:11] <ikonia> jatt: is the cron daemon running

[14:11] <QueenZ> !beta
[14:11] <ikonia> jatt: does the script run if you execute it manually

[14:14] <QueenZ> ikonia: oh ok
[14:14] <Blizzerand> terry_ : gxine is totally buggy , I am going to give mplayer a try now
[14:14] <Ceeriael> Im trying tp compile a driver, but im getting : echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.";
[14:15] <Ceeriael> i tryed "make oldconfig && make prepare" but it didnt held (auto.conf is still not in the folder)
[14:15] <Ceeriael> ive checked, and autoconf.h is there, auto.conf is missing.... and is not created when doing make prepare.
[14:15] <ikonia> Ceeriael: custom kernels are not supported here
[14:16] <terry_> Blizzerand: What is the matter with gxine?  (Works fine for me.)  (So does mplayer, so play away.)
[14:16] <Ceeriael> how  do i make a driver on a "non custom" kernel ? as i understand it, its not possible then ?
[14:16] <jatt> ikonia: yes the cron daemon runs and the script works fine when I execute it from the shell.
[14:16] <ikonia> Ceeriael: yes you do, you make the driver and drop it into the kernel tree
[14:16] <lanoxx-> why does gcc on ubuntu not default to -std=c99?
[14:17] <purvesh> any one know about screen recording or screen capture software for ubuntu 9.10 ? , purvesh
[14:17] <ikonia> jatt: look at cron qllow/deny files
[14:17] <Blizzerand> terry_ : The output was xine engine failed to start or something
[14:17] <Ceeriael> ikonia lovely :D how do i do that... i have the driver source ?? dont have binaryes....
[14:17] <coz_> purvesh,  well there are a few applications
[14:17] <coz_> purvesh,   gtk-recordmydesktop is about the best
[14:17] <jatt> ikonia: in Ubuntu I've succeeded to run cron jobs when I put them in /etc/cron.daily for example, but when I use crontab -e from a user account then it doesn't run as expected.
[14:17] <ikonia> Ceeriael: making the driver source will make the module
[14:17] <hexdump> oh great these people just like to make everything difficult for me.  heh heh spaces in their filenames.
[14:17] <ikonia> jatt: look at cron allow/deny
[14:18] <Ceeriael> and when i do this, thats when i get the error.
[14:18] <coz_> purvesh,  that doesnt mean it is a great application... but it seems to be the best of the one available
[14:18] <terry_> Blizzerand: Go on and install mplayer, (and keep on ignoring the links I sent you  :)
[14:18] <purvesh> coz_, thanx for reply ok... that is the best ... full screen capture software
[14:18] <Blizzerand> terry_ ; what links
[14:18] <hexdump> meitnerium: thanks man.  you too sipior,
[14:18] <jatt> ikonia: /etc/cron.d doesn't have any cron.allow or cron.deny
[14:18] <coz_> purvesh,  yeah... as far as I know  that is about the best...you could do a search for linux screencasting   but I think you will find that one with the most promise
[14:18] <jatt> ikonia: maybe I should add one?
[14:19] <terry_> Blizzerand: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[14:19] <sipior> lanoxx-: the gcc man page sets the situation out pretty clearly.
[14:19] <jatt> a cron.allow I mean
[14:20] <Ceeriael> 1) started up ubuntu livecd, 2) apt-get install build-essential linux-source 3) made some symlink the readme for the driver told med 4) copyed .config from /boot/ into linux source dir, followed by make (short) make menuconfig (then save and exit) and then make (10 sec or so, again by the readme)... 5) tried to make the driver... and thats when i get this error.
[14:20] <purvesh> coz_, can u give me the package name or proper command ?
[14:20] <pepa> olaa
[14:20] <Dolp> I'm having trouble, there are two .zip files that I can't unzip, apparantly I'm meant to merge them together or something, when I unzip them I get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/397263/ any ideas?
[14:20] <lanoxx-> sipior, point me to the section
[14:20] <Ceeriael> I tried to google the problem (with the given driver) but they say make prepare should do the trix (with getting auto.conf) .. but it dosent seem to do me any god.
[14:20] <Ceeriael> good*
[14:21] <coz_> purvesh,   I believe  it is   sudo apt-get install  gtk-recordmydesktop
[14:21] <sipior> lanoxx-: search for "-std"
[14:22] <psvasti> hello you ;)
[14:22] <paranoid_pedlar> is there a way to keep synaptic open to browse installed software, and use aptitude in terminal without having package manager conflicts?
[14:23] <cajun> I have a dual boot system with Ubuntu Karmic and XP. My HDD has 3 partitions. For some reason the 3rd partition requires a root password  but the XP one doesn't. I did not set this up but I want that 3rd partition to automount on startup. How do I do this?
[14:23] <lanoxx-> sipior, it says that c99 will become the default, when all functions have been implemented, that does not explain why its different on mingw
[14:24] <phassinger> I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to convert my existing ubuntu 8.04 server (with /dev/sda and /dev/sdb drives) with LVM and partitions currently existing on just /dev/sda. Is it possible to convert the existing to a RAID mirror with /dev/sdb? I can't find anythign in Google about doing it to an existing OS running partition. The boxes are in a building across town and I'd prefer being able to do this remotely.
[14:24] <coz_> cajun,  did you by chance try to install ubuntu ...something went wrong and you reinstalled from the live cd?
[14:24] <jatt> "When adding a new entry to a blank crontab, forgetting to add a newline at the end is a common source for the job not running."
[14:24] <jatt> arrrgh
[14:24] <sipior> lanoxx-: "ISO C99.  Note that this standard is not yet fully supported;
[14:24] <sipior>                see <http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/c99status.html> for more
[14:24] <sipior>                information."
[14:24] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, I think it's asking you to provide your linux password so that you have privlages? to mount it
[14:24] <sipior> ick, sorry about that, channel.
[14:24] <aurilliance> Trying to install UNR, when I try to boot from the flash drive with the image I get "BOOTMGR is missing"
[14:25] <cajun> coz: I don't think so
[14:25] <terry_> Blizzerand: You can also install huludesktop
[14:25] <linenoise> Is there an mp3 player that I can just start in a directory and get a playlist I can click through? I don't want something to 'manage a library' for me or anything.  Remember xmms?  How it didn't need a server process to run?  It just worked?  I want that again.
[14:25] <aurilliance> I copied the image etc using unetbootin windows
[14:25] <coz_> cajun,  ok and when you put in your password can you mount that partition?
[14:25] <cajun> It's just the one partition, USB drives don't require a password nor does the XP partition.
[14:25] <terry_> linenoise: xmms
[14:25] <cajun> Oh yeah. Once I enter my password it mounts fine but it won't mount automatically on startup.
[14:25] <linenoise> terry_: I just installed it.  It's all sucky now.
[14:25] <lanoxx-> sipior, yet it seems that it IS the default in mingw, because code like for(int i=0; ...) compiles on windows with the default options but not on linux, and also something like int x = pow(5.0, 6.0); compiles on windows but gives a link error on linux
[14:26] <massa-pash>  /nickserv register Rfkfvfhb<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:26] <coz_> cajun,  ok and is this an ntfs partition?
[14:26] <cajun> I want some progs to use folders on that partition.
[14:26] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, you have to add it to your something... someone fill that in with the config file
[14:26] <cajun> coz: Yes it is.
[14:26] <linenoise> terry_: There some kind of server daemon involved and ... I just want to cd into a dir, run a gui and be able to play music
[14:26] <sipior> lanoxx-: i don't know what to tell you.
[14:26] <RamsRambo> I need help with my Webcam. I have ubuntu 9.10 installed and I hv a Frontech ecaM JIL 2214 It is working with gstreamer but with  other applications like skype or any other application it does not show up any suggestion?
[14:26] <paranoid_pedlar> boot ini?
[14:26] <sipior> lanoxx-: use mingw, then?
[14:26] <terry_> linenoise: audacious, bmpx, or xmms2
[14:27] <linenoise> terry_: I haven't herad of audacious or bmpx I'll check them out.  xmms2 is the one I hate
[14:27] <cajun> pedlar: thanks for responding to my plea as well.
[14:27] <terry_> linenoise: I use xmms sometimes.
[14:27] <coz_> cajun,  here is one soluton  http://maketecheasier.com/auto-mount-your-ntfs-partition-in-ubuntu/2009/04/14   however ...I would research this just abit before attempting it  just in case
[14:27] <terry_> linenoise: but I mostly just use my SanDisk Express
[14:28] <coz_> cajun,  I am testing that now so hold on
[14:28] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, etc fstab
[14:28] <arathald> lanoxx-: i probably missed something, but, out of curiosity, what versions of gcc are you using in mingw and in linux?
[14:28] <cajun> coz:  Ok thank you. Do you find it strange that one partition will automount but another won't?
[14:28] <lanoxx-> sipior, dunno, i was just currious as to why it would give me a link error linux but it works in mingw, well anyway, i guess i just have to accept it, its rather broken in mingw, than in gcc
[14:28] <paranoid_pedlar> Ill search to be sure
[14:28] <terry_> linenoise: I don't care for xmms2 either.
[14:28] <cajun> pedlar:  Thank you
[14:29] <lanoxx-> arathald, in linux its gcc-4.4.1 the mingw version is the one that comes with codeblocks 8.2, let me check
[14:29] <Middleman> hey, can u umount the live cd to put in a antivirus cd in?
[14:29] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, well no, because it's not set permissions, which is why it won't mount. Makes you safe
[14:29] <brontosaurusrex> how about 'moc' as a player (ncurses)?
[14:29] <coz_> cajun,  well I also have dual boot with 2 ntfs partitions under windows...however neither of them auto mount  and i dont want them to  but  it is possible
[14:29] <arathald> lanoxx-: yeah, check your mingw gcc version, because, last I checked, it was incredibly outdated
[14:29] <cajun> I just found this link:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=785263
[14:29] <coz_> cajun,  that particular application mentioned on that  link I gave you seems to work
[14:30] <Middleman> is it possible to umount ubuntu livecd? and keep it running
[14:30] <Middleman> or do i gotta load it into ram
[14:30] <cajun> coz, pedlar: well the XP partition mounts just fine without prompting for my password.
[14:30] <coz_> Middleman,  you can keep it running but it is definitly loaded into ram
[14:30] <viso> hi, is there a video converter available in ubuntu?
[14:30] <Middleman> how do i umount the dvd coz, umount /dev/dvd
[14:30] <brontosaurusrex> viso: to convert what?
[14:30] <viso> i need to convert video into ipod
[14:31] <arathald> viso: try handbrake
[14:31] <brontosaurusrex> viso: handbrake
[14:31] <Middleman> damn says its busy maybe i can force it
[14:31] <paranoid_pedlar> do you guys think it's possible to send installed packages and descriptions to a txt file?
[14:31] <viso> thanks for your help
[14:31] <cajun> coz:  Thanks I'll try it.   I understand the logic behind not automounting the partitions by default but I'm just confused as to why one partition mounts but the other doesn't.
[14:32] <arathald> Middleman: if you unmount the dvd, it probably will be unable to find a number of things, iirc, you have to explicitly copy the contents into memory to be able to unmount while running live
[14:32] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, what file system is the one that's being automounted?
[14:32] <terry_> Middleman: May already be mounted   mount
[14:32] <coz_> cajun,  that one I am not sure of...i might have to actually see what is going on with your system to give a decent answer :)
[14:32] <arathald> Middleman: i believe there's a command to do so, but I don't at all remember what it is... ram something or something ram
[14:33] <terry_> Middleman:  mount  #See if it's mounted
[14:33] <lanoxx-> arathald, hmm, from what i found googling its some think like 3.4.5 this explains alot
[14:33] <arathald> Middleman: toram seems to be what you're looking for
[14:33] <terry_> Middleman: Is it a data CD ?
[14:33] <cajun> coz, pedlar: woops. I apologize, that partition is Fat32.
[14:34] <Middleman> its a live ubuntu cd
[14:34] <Middleman> im trying to umount it
[14:34] <lanoxx-> arathald, the people in my class wont be happy i deducted so many points for link errors xD
[14:34] <arathald> lanoxx-: ok, i can help you out a little bit; is mingw installed to C: ?
[14:34] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, that's why. it's not a secure filesystem
[14:34] <Middleman> arathald; ok thats what i was thinking too thanks
[14:34] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, vs ntfs and ext4 etc
[14:35] <suolakurkku> hello!
[14:35] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, which is also why your usb automounts because it uses vfat
[14:35] <cajun> ah ok.  that makes sense.  I use that partition for extra storage only. shall I format it to another one?  I need it to be compatible with ubuntu and XP.
[14:35] <armor-64> hi
[14:35] <armor-64> i have ubuntu 9.10 and lg laptop
[14:36] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, well in windows you can convert it to ntfs convert fs ntfs ? google convert fat32 to ntfs, it's on the microsoft web site, and you won't loose your files
[14:36] <Dolp> I'm having trouble, there are two .zip files that I can't unzip, apparantly I'm meant to merge them together or something, when I unzip them I get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/397263/ any ideas?
[14:37] <cajun> pedlar: wow, I had no idea one could convert between filesystems.
[14:37] <iceroot> Dolp: zip-file is broken
[14:37] <cajun> thanks.  that's very helpful.
[14:37] <rww> ubottu: tab | cajun
[14:37] <iceroot> Dolp: if you have a md5, check that
[14:37] <dante123> hi all, im getting a message on boot up.....something about conflicts with acpi or something....where can I go to see a log of the exact error?
[14:37] <armor-64> I have laptop LG E-500 and i have prob with ubuntu beacouse it's allways showing me the battery low/(0,0)% battery
[14:37] <arathald> lanoxx-: err.. nevermind, it looks like mingw got off their butts and now have current versions of gcc compiled for windows; i compiled and packaged my own version of mingw about a year and a half ago (well, longer now) that, until very recently, has been, as far as I know, the latest version of gcc available compiled against mingw
[14:37] <coz_> cajun,  ah its fat32   now I see
[14:38] <rww> dante123: type `dmesg | less' in a terminal
[14:38] <paranoid_pedlar> cajun, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307881 I learned that by doing the same thing you did with your drive. but a long time ago. I'm so old :(
[14:38] <arathald> lanoxx-: so you can find the latest versions on their website now, though you might have to download the packages for each program separately
[14:38] <rww> dante123: (without quotes)
[14:38] <Dolp> iceroot how
[14:38] <gardar> armor-64, System>Administration>Log File Viewer
[14:38] <AegNuddel> What the heck?  When I try to install something from the Software Center, it says waiting for other software managers to quit.  I'm not running any other ones!
[14:38] <iceroot> !md5 | Dolp
[14:38] <coz_> paranoid_pedlar,   I am one of the "old" guys too  guy :)
[14:39] <gardar> you running a update maby AegNuddel ?
[14:39] <cajun> pedlar: No, you're just well seasoned.  :)
[14:39] <AegNuddel> gardar, how do I check?
[14:39] <paranoid_pedlar> AegNuddel, your synaptic is open or your update. close one haha and you're canadian?
[14:39] <coz_> cajun,  well then since that is fat32 i am not sure that little application would work for you
[14:39] <Blizzerand> terry_ : Are you there
[14:39] <outybuntu> hi guys
[14:39] <gardar> synaptic, update, apt-get, apdidute, some of those must be open
[14:40] <hdtdi> any other software like ffmpeg ? i want to convert mp3 + picture into mp4 ?
[14:40] <AegNuddel> I looked
[14:40] <outybuntu> im having trouble installing vlc
[14:40] <coz_> outybuntu,  where are you installing from?
[14:40] <AegNuddel> what if I xkill them all?
[14:40] <iceroot> outybuntu: sudo apt-get install vlc
[14:40] <lanoxx-> arathald, ok thanks, i will try to get the latest packages
[14:40] <arathald> Middleman: let me know if that works, I'm curious; ive never tried toram with an ubuntu disk
[14:40] <cajun> coz: I'll follow the M$ instructions for conversion.  Thank you so much for your time and information. You were both very helpful.
[14:40] <arathald> s/M$/MS/
[14:41] <paranoid_pedlar> HTbeeJay, mplayer I think can convert. One cool site I've been following for awhile is tovid. Started up from a forum discussion. It does some cool stuff
[14:41] <coz_> cajun,  ok just one bit of info   type    coz  then hit the tab button to complete my nick  this way I will be informed on the irc client that someone is speaking with me :)
[14:41] <paranoid_pedlar> HTbeeJay, for converting video
[14:41] <coz_> cajun,   you should practice that with each person you talk with :)
[14:41] <paranoid_pedlar> brb
[14:41] <CountDown> I'm trying to unlock and mount my LVM2+LUKS encrypted internal hard drive from the 9.10 LiveCD.  Problem is cryptsetup keeps returning "Command failed.  Can not access device".  Any ideas?  I've detailed my plight at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8985991
[14:41] <AegNuddel> ok put them all in xkill...
[14:42] <dante123> rww the original message is not showing up....only thing i noted was Phoenix BIOS detected: BIOS may corrupt low RAM, working around it.
[14:42] <dante123> nothing in there rww about conflicts with acpi
[14:42] <AegNuddel> hm
[14:42] <dante123> anywhere else to look rww?
[14:43] <outybuntu> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[14:43] <outybuntu>   vlc: Depends: vlc-nox (= 1.0.2-1ubuntu2.1) but it is not going to be installed
[14:43] <outybuntu>        Depends: libx264-67 (>= 1:0.svn20090502) but it is not installable
[14:43] <outybuntu>        Recommends: vlc-plugin-pulse (= 1.0.2-1ubuntu2.1) but it is not going to be installed
[14:43] <rww> dante123: if it happened during Ubuntu bootup, it would be in dmesg somewhere. If it was during BIOS setup, it's not something we can catch.
[14:43] <FloodBot4> outybuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:43] <cajun> coz Oh ok.  so that's what those instructions meant. I was confused.
[14:43] <AegNuddel> nope oin fact started software center and it still said that even before I started downloading anything...
[14:43] <dante123> it is not in bios setup, it was after grub gives menu list of os, and I select ubuntu.....
[14:43] <outybuntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/397283/
[14:43] <rww> outybuntu: copy the output of "apt-cache policy vlc" to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the created page here.
[14:43] <dante123> rww
[14:43] <cajun> coz_, using the tab sure beats remembering which command alerts the recipient.
[14:43] <coz_> cajun,   yeah  its difficutlt to keep track of who is talking to whom without nick complettion
[14:43] <coz_> cajun,  :)
[14:44] <rww> dante123: then it should be in dmesg =\
[14:44] <AegNuddel> nothing!
[14:44] <dante123> do i type that in.....dmesg =\
[14:44] <dante123> in terminal rww
[14:44] <evud> Hello. I have a .pdf file that was converted to pdf from a .ppt file(which I can't find). The pdf file has in one page one slide, is there a way-program to convert the pdf so there are 2 slides in one page or so? I searched google but the only find info on how to merge multiple .pdf files ... Than you
[14:44] <cajun> coz_, someone should fix the bot so the instructions are more clear for newbies.
[14:44] <coz_> cajun,  i also have xchat alert me with a sound if I am not looking at the screen..something I used to hate but found useful especially on support days :)
[14:45] <rww> dante123: no, I just had you type in "dmesg | less", that's what i mean
[14:45] <dante123> okay...
[14:45] <rww> cajun: If you have a suggestion, I can send it to the appropriate people for you :)
[14:45] <Paula> knkbkbb
[14:45] <coz_> cajun,  well sometimes..as in this channel ..there are so many of the bot offerings I cant keep track of them myself
[14:45] <dante123> sorry, this is new to me....rww
[14:45] <iceroot> evud: just print the pdf to a pdf printer and choose 2sides-on-one-side
[14:45] <outybuntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/397285/
[14:46] <cajun> coz_, i hear ya. it's hard for me to keep track myself sometimes.
[14:46] <bluds> hi
[14:46] <AegNuddel> oh it must have carried over from another session...hmm weird
[14:47] <AegNuddel> and the manual terminal thing won't install it :(
[14:47] <bluds> i'm working on a script and i would like to do a scp connexion and i need to specify the password in the same line
[14:47] <cajun> rww, the tab instructions weren't clear enough. they just confused me.  if someone could just add that you start typing the nick then hit tab, the nick is completed and alerts the recipient that they have a msg.  something along those lines would help. i really had no idea what the bot was trying to tell me.
[14:47] <bluds> any idea how can i do it?
[14:47] <AegNuddel> finally one
[14:47] <armor-64> gardar, ok, now what?
[14:47] <Diverdude> if i write grep "*cvraw*" it searches current folder and all subfolders with files containing cvraw as either individual word or as part of a longer word right?
[14:47] <Dr_Willis>  bluds  if you set up ssh properly you can copy your credentials over and not need a password.
[14:48] <cajun> coz_, paranoid_pedlar : thank you so much for you help. have a great day.
[14:48] <evud> iceroot: oopss :S why haven't I thoght about this? xpdf doesn't have such an option but seems Okular does. Thank you very much :)
[14:48] <dante123> one other thing rww, ocasionally i get a "flash" or a 1-2 sec freeze....seems video related.  I uninstalled the nvidia driver......but wondering if I should use earlier version rather than the latest.  Had issues with latest nvidia drivers under windows....but going to previous version resolved my problems.....is there any nvidia driver to avoid?  Choices are 173 and 93 i think...
[14:48] <gardar> search for your message armor-64
[14:48] <coz_> cajun,  no problem
[14:48] <casl> i have a solution to my problem from yesterday (2010/03/17 @ 20:17 GMT) regarding "unable to authenticate user" & gdm-session-work segfault -->> missing /dev/random & /dev/urandom. recreated these and restart gdm. problem solved. i'm posting this here so it makes it's way into the IRC logs
[14:48] <rww> dante123: I don't have an nvidia card, so I don't know anything about them, sorry.
[14:48] <Dr_Willis> casl:  dare we ask how you lost your /dev/random and /dev/urandom ?
[14:48] <dante123> okay thanks anyway....rww
[14:49] <MrPiracy> could anyone pls tell me which plugin i need to be able to see the live stream on this website? http://www.metropoletv.com.br/
[14:49] <armor-64> gardar, sorry what?
[14:49] <dante123> i got rid of the nvidia driver, going to see if the issue comes up without it
[14:49] <dante123> thanks rww
[14:49] <kdymca> hi all. got a few questions related to network shares and different flavors of ubuntu for use in a music production/internet radio/youth club setting
[14:49] <bugaloo> Hello all! I'm using ubuntu 9.10 on my HP dv2000 laptop. The problem is: when I plug the headphones, sound comes out but it still plays on the speakers. Does anybody know why is that?
[14:49] <ulferik> What program do I need to listen to radio Real and Media player is the options for Sr.se
[14:50] <AegNuddel> FINALLY
[14:50] <casl> dr_willis: attempting to install a udev rule to workaround an issue with cisco vpn client
[14:50] <rsk> ulferik mplayer -playlist url works.
[14:50] <rww> hmm, looks like outybuntu disappeared. sudo apt-get update would have fixed their problem :\
[14:50] <CountDown> How do I unlock and mount a LUKS+LVM2 encrypted internal hard drive from the 9.10 Live CD?  cryptsetup is giving me a "Command failed.  Can not access device" error.
[14:50] <rsk> ulferik dont need media or realplayer
[14:50] <ulferik> rsk thanks
[14:51] <rww> cajun: alright, I'll see what I can do about making it clearer :)
[14:52] <evud> w/quit
[14:52] <kdymca> mainly, what i want to know is, is it possible (and where could i find a good tutorial) to set up a share (samba, ftp, nfs?) so that the local (linux, OSX and Windows) machines can have rw access, and also remote machines can access them in a read only capacity? (say for getting a project i've worked on here from home)
[14:53] <sllide> my bluetooth icon disapearded...
[14:53] <mhall119|work> kdymca: you can do that with user account restrictions
[14:53] <sllide> how can i make it show up in the bar again?
[14:53] <meganerd> kdymca: I use samba for local access and https for remote erad only access.
[14:53] <mhall119|work> I think you can also do it by subnet
[14:53] <arathald> kdymca: its very possible, I don't know offhand exactly how to do it, but yes, it is possible
[14:54] <MrPiracy> could anyone pls tell me which plugin i need to be able to see the live stream on this website? http://www.metropoletv.com.br/
[14:54] <Dr_Willis> kdymca:  theres the 'using samba' and other docs in the 'samba-doc' packge that are worth looking at.
[14:54] <AegNuddel> well software manager loads again but it keeps telling me to check my internet connection %#%$^#$ AT&T!
[14:54] <purvesh> i want to record my screen as a Video any software for Ubuntu 9.10 ? , purvesh
[14:54] <kdymca> thanks guys. any idea what i should google to figure out how to deploy such a thing?
[14:55] <Azelphur> !screencast | purvesh
[14:55] <Dr_Willis> kdymca:  theres the 'using samba' book and other books avail for free. and in the 'samba-doc' package. and 1000's of samba guides online
[14:57] <kdymca> thanks a lot
[14:57]  * kdymca goes off to read documentation
[14:58] <Dr_Willis> ulferik:  working in the vlc plugin for firefox also. (but the site is laggy)
[14:58] <Diverdude> if i write grep "*cvraw*" it searches current folder and all subfolders with files containing cvraw as either individual word or as part of a longer word right?
[14:58] <girlgonegeek> I know this is offtopic, but does anyone here use xchat & wouldn't mind teching me how to use it?
[14:59] <wjm> girlgonegeek - I do it's pretty simple
[14:59] <Dr_Willis> girlgonegeek:   last i checked the xchat homepage had some ok docs/guides - check the xchat help menu also
[14:59] <wjm> although I prefer irsii :(
[14:59] <Dr_Willis> wjm:  ive switched over to WeeChat :)
[14:59] <coz_> girlgonegeek,  well you could type   /join #xchat  and I am sure they can help  since talking about it here would take quite a bit of time :)
[14:59] <girlgonegeek> Dr_Willis, ya i have - but I still don't understand it.  so im hoping to find someone that could teach me it.
[14:59] <Johnconnor> rererererere
[15:00] <wjm> Dr_Willis: the the heck is that?
[15:00] <girlgonegeek> coz_,  ya im in there, but the help im getting doesnt make any sense to me. lol
[15:00] <skumbag> [_]P
[15:00] <Dr_Willis> wjm:  a text based/console irc client.
[15:00] <Dr_Willis> wjm:  with lots of fetures not in irssi
[15:00] <setnew> #ubuntu-cn
[15:00] <vertx> Diverdude: try rgrep instead
[15:00] <wjm> nice - I like console things :D
[15:01] <ulferik> rsk what do you mean "dont need media or realplayer"
[15:01] <Diverdude> vertx, what is the difference?
[15:01] <Middleman> f-secure rescue cd is greater than bit defender rescue cd (antivirus scan)
[15:01] <wjm> ugh, how do you turn off join/parts in xchat this is getting annoying after only three minutes ;_;

[15:02] <AegNuddel> ok got it to download again but it's doing something weird as of lately
[15:02] <grandemahatma> hello. I've installed windows 7 AFTER having installed ubuntu on my PC. How to install grub to use the dual boot?
[15:02] <vertx> Diverdude: I believe rgrep goes into subdirectories as you want
[15:03] <Diverdude> vertx, i see....and the regex is correct?
[15:03] <AegNuddel> it downloads the program, then gets to about 65 percent, jumps back to 50, the n eventually claims to have failed, but then I try to go to reinstall, and the program ends up alreaddy being installed
[15:03] <AegNuddel> it makes no sense!
[15:03] <adamkex> grandemahatma: http://tinyurl.com/yezxy36
[15:04] <vertx> Diverdude: rgrep *craw would be fine. Read the manual :)
[15:05] <AegNuddel> hmm and my webcam is not showing the photo either
[15:05] <AegNuddel> in cheese
[15:05] <grandemahatma> adamkex: thanks a lot.. you're awfully kind
[15:05] <adamkex> grandemahatma: :)
[15:05] <Diverdude> vertx, yeah i cannot find any flag to send if i want to get verbous output while it is processing files, like "now looking in file ...." etc
[15:05] <Strife1989> I am using Ubuntu 9.10, and I am trying to find a way to get the Line In input on my sound card to "pass through" to the speakers. Can I get some help with doing so?
[15:05] <wjm> Microsoft will rue the day when live.com forgot my password, I swear it!
[15:05]  * wjm shakes fist
[15:06] <grandemahatma> adamkex: only, I did not isntall grub BEFORE installing windows
[15:06] <Blizzerand> Do you guys know any text/html decoder plguin
[15:06] <Diverdude> vertx, aha...grep -ir cvraw * did the job well
[15:07] <vertx> Diverdude: I don't know if there's such an option
[15:07] <adamkex> grandemahatma: ubuntu installs it automatically for you when you install ubuntu
[15:07] <Strife1989> I am using Ubuntu 9.10, and I am trying to find a way to get the Line In input on my sound card to "pass through" to the speakers. Can I get some help with doing so? In the Sound preferences, I can see that the sound card is receiving a signal from my source.
[15:08] <grandemahatma> adamkex: I see, thanks
[15:08] <vertx> Diverdude: thatks great. Thanks or sharing, I'm a newbie myself
[15:08] <adamkex> grandemahatma: windows replaces grub with its own bootloader, that is why you have to reinstall grub
[15:09] <Feras> Test: Hi
[15:09] <grandemahatma> adamkex: thanks for explaining
[15:09] <adamkex> grandemahatma: you're welcome :)

[15:13] <crs> Hi there. Got a broken cd drive in my laptop and due to that I cant install ubuntu using installation cd. Is it safe to move hdd to other (different) laptop, install ubuntu there and move it back to origin laptop? Will it work on hardware configuration different to that during the installation?
[15:13] <beutdeuce> when using apt-get, how do i specify to ONLY install the package i entered, and NOT the suggested/recommended packages?

[15:14] <leleobhz> llutz: where i set this?
[15:14] <beutdeuce> rww: well, whenever i want to install  a java-based package, maven for example, it wants to instll gcj java, even though i only want to use sun jdk 6 that i already have instaLLED

[15:15] <crs> chili555: Will everything work well?
[15:15] <crs> select*
[15:15] <chili555> crs: it selects them in the boot process

[15:17] <grandemahatma> adamkex: ehm.. ok it indeed worked. Only, now I can only boot in ubuntu :(
[15:18] <Pici> Dolp: you'd need the sqlite3 package, then you'd just need to run sqlite3 yourfile.db
[15:18] <grandemahatma> how can I figure out where windows is installed?
[15:18] <adamkex> grandemahatma: because you have to add windows 7 to your /boot/grub/menu.lst

[15:23] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: i tried firefox and google chrome, it doesnt work .... i have flash installed cos youtube is fine
[15:23] <adamkex> grandemahatma: try hd(0,1) first
[15:23] <adamkex> grandemahatma: or hd(0,2)
[15:24] <arzonista> ,pls help me on how to uninstall the amarok,because i will download the updated one.
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: im using chromium daily + 64bit flash and its working great
[15:24] <PeterParker> lol the voices on fedora comunity on beeing owful reppublican christian coservative fanatics bush style that treat users as trash is true :)
[15:24] <adamkex> grandemahatma: for your windows entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst and don't tab your entry like in the post
[15:24] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: also tried to install gnome-mplayer and gecko-mediaplayer from synapse
[15:24] <PeterParker> this comunity is so much better
[15:24] <ManDay> My computer crashed, while I got an open AND unsaved AND untitled document in gedit - I NEED TO RESTORE IT! Any suggestions how?
[15:24] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: sh8
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> PeterParker: the gentoo community is also great
[15:24] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: isnt there a way to figure out which plugin it is using?
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: right click the item and the menu may give clues
[15:25] <grandemahatma> adamkex: I'll try
[15:25] <leleobhz> llutz: added key but notting
[15:25] <PeterParker> so you did know ActionParsnip that fedora are  ugly reppublican fanatics bush style who treat users as trash or you know it now?
[15:25] <leleobhz> ii  thunderbird               <IP_ADDRESS>+build1+nobinonly mail/news client with RSS and integrated spam filter support
[15:25] <Dolp> pici it won't work
[15:25] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: thatś the thing, nothing happens when i right click it
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> PeterParker: ive not used fedora, it doesnt appeal
[15:25] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: its just a black square
[15:25] <adamkex> grandemahatma: the hd(0,1) tells grub what partition to boot
[15:26] <PeterParker> the distro is nice but the comunity does reflect the horrible spirit of reppublican fanatics bossy arrogant and close minded
[15:26] <Myrtti> PeterParker: how is that relevant to Ubuntu support?
[15:26] <adamkex> grandemahatma: hd(0,0) being the first hd(0,1) being the second hd(0,2) the third
[15:26] <Johnconnor> 123456789
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: can you use: http://pastebin.com to give the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnas; dpkg -l | grep swf
[15:26] <c3l> what does y stand for in rename 'y/?/??/' * ? and it can also be a S in the place of the y, what does it mean then?
[15:26] <PeterParker> nothing sorry was just upset i been treated bad for going there as i was trying the distro
[15:26] <adamkex> grandemahatma: if you have a swap partition then hd(0,2) should be correct
[15:26] <Johnconnor> 123456789
[15:26] <epaphus> Anybody know if there is a way in ubuntu to identify which drivers are loaded and disable them permanently??
[15:26] <grandemahatma> adamkex: shouldn't I also edit device.map?
[15:26] <Myrtti> PeterParker: this channel is for Ubuntu support issues only. Please take your antagonism somewhere else or check it out at the door
[15:26] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: sure, hang on
[15:26] <adamkex> grandemahatma: no
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> epaphus: lsmod

[15:27] <adamkex> grandemahatma: don't touch it
[15:27] <TheFuzzball> Why is ping not stopping when I do ctrl+c?
[15:27] <abhi_nav> PeterParker: you are takling about which channel?
[15:27] <PeterParker> is it possible to make ubuntu 9.10 Myrtti look like mac with the desktop icons bar?
[15:27] <Pici> Dolp: You just need run sqlite3   followed by the name of the file.
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> TheFuzzball: any command stops (usually) with ctrl+c
[15:27] <genii> epaphus: To list the drivers currently in use use something like: lsmod | more                   for blacklist see factoid !blacklist
[15:27] <Myrtti> PeterParker: try cairo-dock or awn
[15:27] <llutz> leleobhz: typo? works here as desired
[15:28] <Dolp> pici how do i run sqlite3?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> TheFuzzball: you can also use: ping -c 4 address to only ping 4 times
[15:28] <Pici> Dolp: The command is 'sqlite3'
[15:28] <PeterParker> thanx
[15:28] <leleobhz> llutz: ive cut'n'pasted what you said
[15:28] <Pici> Dolp: What are you expecting to find when you run this?
[15:28] <Dolp> uhh backup text info?

[15:28] <Johnconnor> 123456789
[15:28] <sanguisdex> is there a way to install ubuntu to a USB drive that will allow me to test video drivers and add and remove software repos?
[15:28] <Johnconnor> 123456789
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> PeterParker: or simdock if you dont use compiz
[15:28] <adamkex> PeterParker: fedora? fanatics? what arguments do they have that their distro is "superior"? hahahaha
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> sanguisdex: sure, the livecd has a usb installer on it
[15:29] <TheFuzzball> ActionParsnip, That's how it's supposed to work, but I am doing ctrl+c and it just tabs across and continues, getting really f**inf annoying
[15:29] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/jSgucUmQ
[15:29] <Pici> Dolp: This is a database file, you'll need to use SELECT statements to find the data that you're looking for.
[15:29] <Myrtti> adamkex: drop it. this channel is for Ubuntu support only
[15:29] <Dolp> k
[15:29] <grandemahatma> adamkex: yep.. thanks! hd0,1 was indeed ok!
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: looks fine

[15:30] <ActionParsnip> TheFuzzball: just close the terminal is all i can suugest
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> TheFuzzball: i suggest you make an alias for ping to ping -c 4  its handy ;)

[15:31] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: could try removing flashplugin-installer and installing flashplugin-nonfree, or if yuor OS is 64bit you could use the alpha 64bit flash plugin
[15:31] <llutz> leleobhz: for https, you need key "network.protocol-handler.app.https"  value  "/usr/bin/firefox"
[15:31] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: they're in synaptics?
[15:32] <leleobhz> llutz: ive tried with http link
[15:32] <theadmin> Hello. Need help on usb-creator-gtk, to be precise, what kind of filesystem does it format the device to?
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: flashplugin-nonfree is, the 64bit plugin isnt but is simple to install
[15:32] <obscurant1st> i applied a icon theme, but my folders icon are not changing in gnaome?? why??
[15:32] <ndo> Guys, what do i do with that? http://pastebin.com/HCv3bthy
[15:32] <llutz> leleobhz then i have no idea why it doesn't work for you.
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: ext2 i believe
[15:32] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Woah that's old.
[15:32] <leleobhz> llutz: even me. and i cant find help for thunderbird
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: it has no journal so makes the device last longer
[15:33] <leleobhz> mozilla KB heres give to me a timeout
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: its not old by any way, its very usable
[15:33] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: "Journal"?
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: i think you should research what ext2/3 and 4 are before slinging words like "old" around
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: annd why its a good idea to use ext2 on usb devices
[15:34] <obscurant1st> i need to change my folder icons, now it looks like crap, pls somebody help me
[15:34] <epaphus> anybody know how I can permanently disable the Firewire port, the NIC port, wireless, and SD cart ports in ubuntu??
[15:34] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Well, i mean, heck, 2 is less then 4, and i think of those numbers as version numbers
[15:34] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: installed nonfree and nothing changed, needs a reboot?
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: kinda yes, but if you look at the differences between you will see why ity is still very used
[15:34] <sanguisdex> ActionParsnip: so I need two usb drives or can I just mnt the live cd in a vbox and install to the USB drive from there?
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: no, you only really need to reboot to change kernel
[15:35] <theadmin> What about ext1? lol does such thing exist?
[15:35] <genii> epaphus: Use: sudo lshw          to get a more detailed list than lsmod of what exact hardware uses what driver. Then use blacklisting as I explained already earlier to you
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> sanguisdex: if you want you can use tools etc to put the liveCD on the usb and boot from that
[15:35] <genii> !blacklist | epaphus
[15:35] <Slart> I'm experiencing some weird lockups on my system.. using ext4 on a SSD for system disk.. nothing interesting in the logs.. just hard lockups.. and always when I'm doing file related stuff.. moving big files around, copying big files... is the fact that it happens when I'm doing things with large files just what finally pushes it over the edge? any hints on what parts I should start banging on to see if they fall off?
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: not sure
[15:36] <epaphus> genii, sorry didnt see it. thanks
[15:36] <llutz> theadmin: ext1 was simply called "ext"
[15:36] <MrPiracy> ActionParsnip: then where do i get the other one?
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> theadmin: i suggest you read the links here: http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=73687

[15:48] <ActionParsnip> sanguisdex: or a new video card, a cheapo nvidia thing will do much better
[15:49] <rww> sanguisdex: I'd go the LiveUSB route and see if it works. The free (default) ATI driver's 3D support has gotten a heck of a lot better since Intrepid.
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> MrPiracy: look in /usr/lib for the chrome and firefox plugins folkder, i use chromium daily so my plugin folder is that, have a hunt, it should be fairly clear
[15:49] <sanguisdex> ActionParsnip: it's a lappy
[15:49] <rww> sanguisdex: and since it's default, you'll get the same 3D support on the LiveCD that you would (or wouldn't) get in a real install.
