[00:00] <beruchti2te> ubuntu9.10 is not as good as archlinux
[00:01] <DaZ> beruchti2te: so?
[00:01] <RhysM> beruch dont use it then
[00:01] <shavinder> beruchtigte: how so? I would like to know more please
[00:01] <Chousuke> :P
[00:01] <Chousuke> It's a troll, ignore it.
[00:02] <beruchti2te> shavinder: too complex for me
[00:02] <shavinder> I like to try all linuxes, I use ubuntu as well as Puppy linux, I like ubuntu for its widespread package support and for being a full installation, and i love puppy for it brevity and speed(it runs faster than light) :)
[00:02] <Chousuke> this is not the place for discussing distribution differences, anyway
[00:03] <Chousuke> Move to #ubuntu-offtopic, if you please.
[00:03] <Chousuke> And I'm sorry for the accidental alliteration ;(
[00:03] <shavinder> Chousuke: cheers
[00:06] <xguru> anyone familiar with rygel?
[00:07] <Cojimero> hi everyone
[00:07] <gartral> quick question, does ubuntu 9.10 have the same 64bit corruption problems as 9.04?
[00:08] <xguru> gartral: ask in #ubuntu+1
[00:08] <jrib> gartral: in the sense that neither have 64bit corruption problems you mean?  What are you talking about?
[00:09] <ejdo> how many different #ubuntu-XXXXX chatrooms are there?
[00:09] <jrib> !irc > ejdo
[00:09] <gartral> jrib: im talking about the people who are having issues with their file system on 64 bit jaunty
[00:09] <jrib> gartral: bug link?
[00:09] <Cojimero> hey question ubuntu 9.10 beta is giving me a problem with the authentication ..every time I try to change something... it pop up the authentication window but is not working
[00:10] <jrib> !karmic | Cojimero
[00:10] <gartral> jrib: all i've ever seen was in here "my raid crashed and all my data was lost"
[00:10] <jrib> gartral: right...
[00:10] <Cojimero> any idea
[00:10] <tpocra> How can I best make an ubuntu live CD from a .iso when I am running Debian?
[00:10] <tpocra> An bootable USB drive I mean
[00:10] <IdleOne> !usb
[00:11] <tpocra> does Ubuntu's usb-creator work on Debian?
[00:11] <gartral> jrib: please, can  get a constructive answer? i dont want to have to repartition my drives any time soon
[00:11] <IdleOne> gartral: I think jrib is looking for evidence to your claim before trying to help solve any issue
[00:11] <ejdo> tpocra: you can extract the image onto usb then apply syslinux
[00:11] <tma> exit
[00:12] <ejdo> the bootloader
[00:12] <dewman> I have a hard drive that I can see on my ata card...But when ubuntu oots it says something about revalidation failed? For some reason it cant see that drive. Is there a log that I can look at to see why or what it is doing?
[00:13] <dewman> opps. Boots
[00:13] <tpocra> ejdo: Do you know how I could customize what packages are installed as well as preserving desktop settings, not only across boots off the USB medium
[00:13] <jrib> gartral: and even more simply than that: what are you actually claiming?  "64bit corruption" is terribly vague.  Find a bug report about the issue you are talking about at bugs.ubuntu.com
[00:13] <tpocra> but also installing those package changes
[00:14] <tpocra> and settings when installing ubuntu?"
[00:14] <Splendid> how to kill screen program
[00:14] <Splendid> with deatached sessions?
[00:15] <Splendid> anyone?
[00:15] <gartral> jrib: sorry for not having my own homework done, but i hear that after running 64 bit jaunty for a few days, it will eventually curropt the partition on the drives
[00:15] <SeaPhor> IdleOne, you have any experience with connecting ubuntu to a cisco router via db9-eth and console cable, the app to use to console in?
[00:15] <IdleOne> SeaPhor: none at all
[00:16] <SeaPhor> k, tks anyway IdleOne
[00:16] <gartral> bugs.ubuntu.com just 404ed on me
[00:16] <IdleOne> probably a 64bit corruption
[00:17] <IdleOne> loads fine here
[00:17] <jrib> gartral: again, hear from whom exactly?  fwiw, I've been running 64bit ubuntu since dapper without any issue like that...
[00:17] <gartral> jrib: alright, thanks
[00:17] <gartral> jrib: bugs.ubuntu.com is 404'ing on me
[00:17] <SeaPhor> jrib,  you have any experience with connecting ubuntu to a cisco router via db9-eth and console cable, the app to use to console in?

[00:24] <gtech> Hey I'm trying to figure out why gettext won't make, I just put the errors in pastebin
[00:24] <jrib> SeaPhor: probably better to use bash, since ubuntu's sh is dash by default

[00:26] <jrib> gtech: erm, gettext is in the repositories, don't compile it
[00:26] <SeaPhor> shavinder, did you use the cmd like : useradd -ggroupname -s/bin/false(if u dont want them to have ssh) -ppassword-d/path/to/home/dir -m username
[00:26] <gtech> jrib: repositories?
[00:26] <jrib> !software > gtech
[00:26] <djbpython> SeaPhor, that did the trick
[00:27] <jrib> gtech: yes, the standard way to install software on ubuntu is through APT!
[00:27] <jrib> djbpython: your file probably wasn't executable
[00:27] <gtech> awesome, thanks
[00:27] <meanieface> why would you be compiling stuff when you don't know what repository is?
[00:27] <djbpython> jrib, how do I make it executable
[00:27] <djbpython> I have !/bin/bash
[00:27] <SeaPhor> gotcha jrib, i just noticed i had to use that on ubuntu as i do the "./" at work with SLED,,,
[00:27] <jrib> !permissions > djbpython
[00:28] <jrib> djbpython: basically: chmod +x myscript.sh
[00:28] <djbpython> jrib, oh ah ok thanks
[00:28] <shavinder> SeaPhor: I think I just did useradd and then it prompted me for password and other data like room no, telephone etc. After that a home directory got created in the Homes by the same name as the user i created. SO i assumed everything went correct. Should I use the command as you just showed?
[00:28] <xim_> is there an ubuntu program to attempt to recover deleted files from ntfs?
[00:29] <xim_> or linux
[00:29] <LjL> !testdisk | xim_ this probably doesn't care about the filesystem
[00:29] <LjL> !info testdisk | xim_ this probably doesn't care about the filesystem
[00:29] <LjL> but still, you're more likely to have luck with a Windows program, i suspect

[00:31] <mneptok> walkinginLA: one thing's for sure you aren't starring in the movies 'cause you're ....
[00:34] <CaptainMorgan> I was looking at some themes over at gnome-look.org and I'd like to post this picture, there's no nudity but some might consider it on the racy side... my main question concerns how to get the systems statistics are on display in this pic? http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=71126&file1=71126-1.png&file2=&file3=&name=UbuntuGirl&PHPSESSID=78f0669dea474dad727e37a6e93fa954
[00:35] <CaptainMorgan> can anyone point me to where I can get system stats like that... and I'm assuming they run in real-time
[00:35] <jrib> CaptainMorgan: conky
[00:35] <CaptainMorgan> jrib, conky?
[00:35] <jrib> CaptainMorgan: yes, conky
[00:35] <CaptainMorgan> oh... great, I just did a quick search... wasn't sure at first what you meant, thanks!
[00:35] <jrib> CaptainMorgan: it's in the repositories and there are tons of guides
[00:36] <boscop> I installed msttcorefonts, but they don't show up in the fonts list after restarting OO!
[00:37] <xim_> how can i tell what kernel im using?
[00:37] <jrib> xim_: uname -a
[00:38] <shavinder> I confirmed that I used "adduser" command to create users on my ubuntu server. In order to share their home directories do i need to do anything other than what is mentioned here https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileprint-security.html ?
[00:44] <CaptainMorgan> jrib, are you familiar with conky or lua5.1? after I try to run the configure script (since the repos only have v1.5, and I can get v1.72 of conky), it says I need lua5.1 >= , so I use Synaptic to get liblua 5.1 and lua5.1 along with any dependencies... then I go back to the configure script and it's still saying that lua5.1 is missing...
[00:45] <jrib> CaptainMorgan: I would recommend you just use the version in the repositorie
[00:45] <jrib> s
[00:46] <trism> CaptainMorgan: just need to sudo apt-get install conky
[00:48] <mneptok> CaptainMorgan: you need liblua-dev
[00:48]  * Dibblah wonders why the UK gets "Isle of Man time"
[00:48] <mneptok> CaptainMorgan: the development libraries against which programs link are seperate packages
[00:48] <MythBork> Hey all, if I made a dd copy of a disk to a file, can I mount it with the mount loop option? I dd'd the entire drive which has several partitions
[00:48] <CaptainMorgan> thank you mneptok
[00:49] <MythBork> mount loop isn't working so far, and is saying bad fs type
[00:49] <dajhorn> MythBork: Yes, but you need to call losetup with the offset for each filesystem in the raw image.
[00:49] <Delryk> can anyone help me with using grep in terminal ?
[00:49] <jrib> !ask | Delryk
[00:50] <dajhorn> MythBork: Use a utility like fdisk to read the partition table from the dd image and get an offset for the filesystem that you want to mount.
[00:50] <jrib> Delryk: grep --help | grep Usage
[00:51] <Delryk> jrib how can i use grep to search for lines in a text file that contain exactly one vowel?
[00:51] <dajhorn> Delryk: That sounds like a homework question.
[00:51] <PacketCollision> Delryk: try reading basic regex howtos
[00:51] <jrib> Delryk: learn about character classes
[00:51] <Delryk> yeah i have been doing this for about 10 hours -.-
[00:52] <jrib> Delryk: start by searching just for lines that contain exactly one 'a' then
[00:52] <kilo> is anyone familiar with how to recovery partial (or complete) files from corrupted folder on a windows drive, connected via USB? The filesystem is still in tact and I can see the root files of the windows directory, but I cannot see or access the folder in question... I'm assuming it's flagged as either deleted or corrupt upon mounting (I'm running 9.04).
[00:52] <boscop> I installed msttcorefonts, but they don't show up in the fonts list even after restarting open office writer!
[00:52] <Delryk> jrib i dont even know how to search for lines that contain exactly one 'a' do i have to use {n,m} ?
[00:53] <boscop> how can I decompress uif and daa files??
[00:53] <jrib> Delryk: did you learn about character classes yet?
[00:53] <Delryk> no
[00:53] <jrib> Delryk: that will probably help you
[00:54] <Delryk> like this: [a,e,i,o,u] ?
[00:54] <jrib> Delryk: that would include ','...
[00:54] <jrib> I think?
[00:54] <Dibblah> [aeiou]
[00:54] <MythBork> dajhorn, I found the partition I want is /media/sdb1/sysdisk.102109bak.iso2 according to fdisk. the losetup man file isn't very helpful. How to I feed that into the mount command to get it to mount?
[00:54] <PacketCollision> Delryk: http://marvin.cs.uidaho.edu/~heckendo/Handouts/regex.html
[00:54] <jdoghacker> hey how would you enable wireless networking on a laptop with a built in wireless card with ubuntu linux
[00:55] <jrib> Dibblah: now learn how to invert character classes
[00:55] <beruchti2te> [aeiou] in python
[00:55] <Dibblah> jrib: [^...]
[00:55] <jrib> Dibblah: that should be helpful...
[00:55] <MythBork> jdoghacker, network manager
[00:55] <jdoghacker> ok let me get there
[00:55] <mankash> captainMorgan: are you there?
[00:56] <CaptainMorgan> yes mankash , may I ask why?
[00:56] <brian1> how do you view ubuntu files in windows?
[00:56] <Dibblah> s/ (.) (.) / \2 \1 / - reorder two characters, seperated by spaces.
[00:56] <Dibblah> Or boobies.
[00:56] <X7> I have an old pc I use a media server (currently windows) does ubuntu play well with an old Geforce 2, cant find it on the hardware compat list???
[00:56] <brian1> how do you view ubuntu files in windows?
[00:57] <jrib> PacketCollision: do you have a solution using regex, I'm curious if yours is more effecient (I'll pm you mine)
[00:57] <mankash> I checked the pic you posted: how to configure ubuntu for that nice lookking icons at the bottom
[00:57] <Dibblah> Regex efficiency differs with the tool you use.
[00:57] <trism> jrib: I got one, hehe
[00:57] <Delryk> jrib. can u point me in some direction ?
[00:57] <X7> I have an old pc I use a media server (currently windows) does ubuntu play well with an old Geforce 2, cant find it on the hardware compat list???
[00:57] <mankash> captainmorgan: I checked the pic you posted: how to configure ubuntu for that nice lookking icons at the bottom
[00:57] <Dibblah> ^^^ - That's called up.
[00:58] <jrib> Dibblah: I didn't mean efficient computationally
[00:58] <jrib> Dibblah: I guess I meant "elegant"
[00:58] <CaptainMorgan> mankash, don't know - I'm busy trying to set up the stats to the right of the pic
[00:58] <jrib> Delryk: I thought I did
[00:58] <mankash> ok
[00:58] <gtech> how do i find a listing of what devices are on what ports?
[00:59] <Deevz> Hey folks!
[00:59] <n8tuser> gtech-> lsusb  and try lshw too
[00:59] <olym> Hi there.
[00:59] <vasser> hello
[00:59] <vasser> anyone here uses gparted ?
[00:59] <olym> I have a quick question.
[00:59] <Deevz> Oh haha, wrong channel >.>
[00:59] <vasser> i could use some help with it
[01:00] <Delryk> jrib i have learned regex so far. what i dont know how to do is specify that my regex may only occur once
[01:00] <gtech> kickass, thanks n8tuser
[01:00] <olym> Does ubunut offer any support for touch screen computers?
[01:00] <Flannel> olym: Yes
[01:00] <olym> Flannel: Which ones? I have a Latitude XT
[01:00] <kilo> Is anyone familiar with data recovery on an NTFS drive through ubuntu?
[01:00] <Flannel> olym: I don't know
[01:01] <olym> Flannel: Do you know where I might need to check?
[01:01] <jrib> Delryk: well you have to think of it like this: [match a bunch of stuff that is not an a] [match a single a] [match a bunch of stuff that is not an a]
[01:01] <Dibblah> kilo: Do you have a backup of the drive?
[01:01] <X7> I have an old pc I use a media server (currently windows) does ubuntu play well with an old Geforce 2, cant find it on the hardware compat list???
[01:01] <Dibblah> If not, take one.
[01:01] <Flannel> olym: google (your laptop model and ubuntu) also, a nice way to check is trying a liveCD (but it might not work ot of the box, you might need to fiddle/enable/whatever stuff)
[01:02] <kilo> Dibblah, no, it's for a client. I only have the original drive.
[01:02] <Dibblah> X7: Try a netboot CD.
[01:02] <olym> Flannel: Alright. Thanks for your help. I appreciate ti.
[01:02] <kilo> Dibblah, if I had a backup, I'd probably just restore it at this point...
[01:02] <olym> it*
[01:02] <X7> Dibblah, live cd?
[01:02] <Dibblah> Err... Try a live CD, even :)
[01:02] <Delryk> jrib: ok. so [^a][a][^a]   ?
[01:02] <CaptainMorgan> jrib, the updated version and configuring it was very worth it :)
[01:02] <Dibblah> kilo: I mean take a backup before fiddling with it ;)
[01:02] <X7> Dibblah, this pc has usb boot. i can use the startup disk thingy even i think.
[01:03] <jrib> Delryk: sure, that's a start.  Now run some examples and see if that does what you want (it doesn't exactly).  Use "grep --color=auto"
[01:03] <geneticx> sup you all
[01:03] <kilo> Dibblah, ahh.... no I have only run chkdsk from the command prompt and that's it.
[01:03] <trism> Delryk: you forgot the bunch of stuff of what jrib said
[01:03] <Dibblah> That's a bad plan.
[01:04] <Dibblah> chkdsk can completely ruin a recoverable drive.
[01:04] <Dibblah> Like I said, take an image of the disk FIRST.
[01:04] <Dibblah> Then only work on the image.
[01:04] <jrib> Delryk: the --color/auto option will show you exactly what grep is matching
[01:04] <Dibblah> What are you trying to recover?
[01:04] <jrib> =auto
[01:04] <kilo> Dibblah, fortunately, it found no bad sectors. I really don't even think the drive is recoverable: It's having delayed write failures
[01:05] <Delryk> ok jrib can u give me an example of how i would search for lets say z in file1.txt ?
[01:05] <Dibblah> Are you trying to recover data off it, or just repair it?
[01:05] <Delryk> oh i got it
[01:05] <kilo> Dibblah, also I told it not to fix... only to report. I ran it based on another root, so it never booted from the drive (although the drive is bootable)
[01:05] <KnifeySpooney> Using usb-imagewriter, is it possible to write a Mac OS X install iso to a usb drive?
[01:05] <jrib> Delryk: well for testing let's just pipe to grep.  So for example: echo abcad | grep --color=auto '[^a][a][^a]'
[01:06] <KnifeySpooney> my friend has a legit copy of mac os x but no dvd drive
[01:06] <Dibblah> jrib: That's grep version dependent.
[01:06] <OerHeks> olyn : this guy has written a howto > http://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/Default.aspx?pageid=77
[01:06] <Dibblah> grep -E should force regexes to work.
[01:06] <jrib> Dibblah: this is #ubuntu, I'm assuming default grep behavior on ubuntu
[01:06] <kilo> Dibblah, gonna examine it with autopsy and see what pops up
[01:06] <Delryk> sorry jrib i dont know echo or how it works i do know the pipe though
[01:07] <Delryk> and i dont need to use the pipe its a simple 6 line .txt
[01:07] <Dibblah> Yeah, but good habits are good habits ;)
[01:07] <jrib> Delryk: echo foo just spits back foo.  We're testing your command with it
[01:08] <Delryk> ok i getting that jrib
[01:08] <Delryk> the only thing i dont know how to do is as for it once only
[01:08] <jrib> Dibblah: fair enough :)
[01:08] <KnifeySpooney> Does UNetBootin write only Linux images, or can it write usb images of Mac install discs?
[01:09] <kristian_> hi, just installed ubuntu 9.4
[01:10] <kristian_> after I got my (AMD) graphics working, the sound is very slow and I hear a clicking noise
[01:10] <jrib> Delryk: see how your suggestion works on some examples and how you can fix it
[01:11] <Kajros1> Anyone running Ubuntu netbook Remix having issues with videos on youtube and such to play?
[01:11] <thedude42> kristian_, clicking most often indicates disk problems
[01:11] <eein> is pulse known to have problems with eeepc's?  i do not hear any sound on my 1000h with Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[01:11] <eein> is pulseaudio installed by default on 9.04
[01:11] <thedude42> yes
[01:11] <kristian_> thedude42, I did not have these problems five minutes ago
[01:12] <KnifeySpooney> Will a USB drive be bootable if I convert a .iso to a .img file?
[01:12] <Rick_> greetings all. I have an issue with perl and portable ubuntu
[01:12] <fuzzybunny> Hi does anyone know anything about fixing assocations in Ubuntu. Sometimes when I double click on html files they don't open in firefox and plain text files just don't launch anything
[01:12] <Delryk> jrib im looking at an example it says 'a\{2,3\}' i know what the 2,3 does but what does the \ do ?
[01:12] <Rick_> I see that the installed version iv 5.8.8 i486
[01:12] <Rick_> can this be updated or changed to i386?
[01:13] <trism> fuzzybunny: right click on the file (witht he format you want to change associations), Properties/Open With tab
[01:13] <Voss> I was shocked totem actually worked!
[01:13] <Flannel> Delryk: in "real" regexp a{2,3} means "from two to three of 'a'"  the \ are just to escape the {}s to protect them from bash or whatever. (just a construct of the program you're using)
[01:13] <jrib> Delryk: what you've written matches aa or aaa, that's just the syntax for it.  Sometimes, depending on where you are using the regex, you'll need to escape things like braces so they are treated as special and not just matched in the text
[01:13] <thedude42> Flannel, only if by 'real' you mean Perl Regular Expressions
[01:14] <Rick_> perl -pi -e 's/\s+$//' file.txt should remove all trailing white spaces from lines in text file but it just blows the file out. This works fine on RHEL
[01:14] <jrib> the only thing i hate about regex is that there are a million different kinds...
[01:14] <Rick_> anybody know why and what to do?
[01:14] <KnifeySpooney> Will a USB drive be bootable if I convert a .iso to a .img file?
[01:15] <eein> how do i determine if pulseaudio is the source of my problem?
[01:15] <Flannel> KnifeySpooney: Do you have a recent Ubuntu system somewhere? (even if its a liveCD)?
[01:15] <fcuk112_> eein: have you played around with alsamixer?
[01:15] <jrib> Rick_: "blows the file out"?
[01:16] <Rick_> empties it of all tett
[01:16] <Rick_> text
[01:16] <KnifeySpooney> Flannel: Yes, I'm using one right now. The OS I want to convert from iso to img is Mac though (need to install via usb)
[01:16] <Rick_> zero in the file
[01:16] <KnifeySpooney> I'm using karmic beta.
[01:16] <Ruge> Whats the best way for me to download and install the nVidia driver for my gfx card?
[01:16] <jrib> Rick_: heh fwiw, here on arch that deletes all trailing white space as well as the final newline of every line
[01:16] <Flannel> KnifeySpooney: You can use the "make a USB bootable something or other" menu item (under system > admin) to make an arbitrary ISO into a bootable USB
[01:16] <KnifeySpooney> Ruge: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
[01:17] <Ruge> cheers
[01:17] <eein> fcuk112_, hmmm im not sure how to open my sound in settings
[01:17] <kilo> how can I find out where the block of data is for a USB drive I've just plugged in?  (/dev/sda???)
[01:17] <eein> nothing pertaining to sound there
[01:17] <Rick_> yeah, I see that.
[01:17] <fcuk112_> eein: type alsamixer in terminal
[01:17] <KnifeySpooney> Ruge: woops.. went off memory. That doesnt seem to be the right one but it's close
[01:17] <Rick_> JRIB - anything i can do or live with it and work this out on RHEL?
[01:17] <KnifeySpooney> Flannel: That works for any OS? Awesome.
[01:18] <jrib> Rick_: you actually want to use perl right?
[01:18] <Delryk> jrib me and my friends have been doing this for hours. like a ridiculous amount of time. the only reason im still doing it is because this course is a $5000 investment..... do you know how to do this ?
[01:18] <Rick_> yes
[01:18] <tech_> does anyone know about gammu or wammu in here?
[01:18] <eein> fcuk112_, ok i have the gui also mixer open
[01:18] <Rick_> have many files to do
[01:18] <Rick_> command line FOR loops are great for this
[01:18] <Rick_> i am not much of a programmer
[01:18] <Flannel> morphias: er, you're trying to install OSX?  I don't know.  You can certainly try it.
[01:18] <KnifeySpooney> Ruge: Sorry, it's actually 'sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nv'
[01:18] <fcuk112_> eein: try to see if any of the volumes are low, if they are increase them with the cursor keys.  esc to exit.
[01:19] <Ruge> ahh, heh, just found an error when i did the 1st command
[01:19] <Ruge> thanks!
[01:19] <gtech> okay lsusb and lshw are nice but they won't tell me the mount point of the device, is there another way?
[01:19] <morphias> Flannel, ???
[01:19] <Rick_> JRIB - I am open to suggestions.
[01:19] <Flannel> morphias: No idea how I managed to highlight you.
[01:19] <eein> fcuk112_, the gain is always low after every boot
[01:19] <morphias> oh ok. lol
[01:19] <jrib> Rick_: well you can just use sed... anyway if I change \s to just ' ' it doesn't remove the final newline
[01:19] <thedude42> gtech, use df -ha
[01:19] <eein> fcuk112_, that seems to be all that is wrong
[01:19] <Rick_> ok - I'll try that.
[01:19] <Rick_> tvm
[01:20] <tred> anyone know how to start plasma desktop headless?
[01:20] <jrib> Rick_: I think sed should accept [[:space:]] to match whitespace
[01:20] <fcuk112_> eein: but you get sound now?
[01:20] <eein> fcuk112_, yes
[01:20] <Rick_> k
[01:20] <eein> but after every reboot it is muted
[01:20] <fcuk112_> eein: strange.
[01:20] <fcuk112_> eein: maybe someone else knows why.
[01:21] <gtech> thedude42: I'm trying to find a USB RFID card reader
[01:22] <thedude42> gtech, ok, well the reason people told you lsusb and lshw is because that will tell you how your system is identifying the devices, but you asked for a mount point just now
[01:22] <crohakon> When I log into my server box it tells me I have x packages can be updated... how do I update them?
[01:22] <gtech> is there a way to find the port that the device is on?
[01:22] <Cyr4x> hi i've got a glx issue
[01:23] <c4pt> how do i connect to a wpa2 enterprise connection with PEAP on ubuntu?
[01:23] <jrib> Rick_: by the way, escaping the + in your original command seems to make it work right here
[01:23] <Cyr4x> glxinfo gives this:
[01:23] <Cyr4x> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:23] <Rick_> cool - brb
[01:23] <thedude42> gtech, lsusb tells you the information about what usb devices are connected to your system.... what do you mean exactly by 'the port'.... the full pci path to the device?
[01:23] <Cyr4x> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
[01:23] <jrib> Rick_: never mind, I lied
[01:23] <Rick_> lol
[01:23] <Cyr4x> nvidia 185 drivers properly installed
[01:24] <gtech> thedude42: like a path in the filesystem like /dev/tty*
[01:24] <jrib> Rick_: sed -i 's/[[:space:]]\+$//   works alright though
[01:24] <Rick_> k
[01:24] <Rick_> sec
[01:24] <Delryk> List all the lines in the “f3.txt” file that contain words which contain exactly one vowel. can anyone help with this ? using grep
[01:24] <eein> fcuk112_, wtf figured it out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1145603
[01:24] <thedude42> gtech, like all other devices it's in /dev, for usb it will be under /dev/bus/usb
[01:25] <Rick_> Excellent!
[01:25] <Rick_> Thanks so much.
[01:25] <eein> no offense but that is retarted, this was a standard install
[01:25] <eein> the only hing i added was ccsm
[01:25] <gtech> thedude42: great thanks, how do i figure out which device is which?
[01:25] <ziomus> hello guys
[01:26] <ziomus> I need help with samba
[01:26] <OerHeks> c4py select the right SSID in the network list, feed it username/password/certificate and that's it
[01:26] <thedude42> gtech, lsusb tells you that, it says 'Bus xxx' on the line that lists the device, that's how you know which directory to look in under /dev/bus/usb
[01:26] <jrib> Delryk: usually you take courses to learn.  I don't mind giving you hints, but there's not much point in just asking for a solution
[01:26] <thedude42> gtech, all the information to find it is in lsusb
[01:27] <gtech> ah, cool, I was really confused by the bus device language
[01:27] <Cyr4x> so, any solution?
[01:27] <ziomus> My problem is that i can not see my folders that i shared from the other computer ( OS windows) but i can see sharing folders that i am sharing from windows..
[01:27] <jrib> Delryk: if it helps, I try to think of difficult homework problems as puzzles to work on
[01:27] <Delryk> jrib: so far everything that i have been told hasnt helped me at all. i know how to use regex but i dont have an understanding of how to actually only find the words that contains one vowel only. i havent learned how to search words rather than lines
[01:28] <korin43> c4pt: Click on the Networkmanager applet then click on the network and type in the information you're given
[01:28] <jrib> Delryk: what examples did you try with your '[a][^a][a]' suggestion from before?
[01:28] <c4pt> korin43: what about the CA cert?
[01:28] <c4pt> korin43: do i use the user CA cert or the host CA cert?
[01:28] <jrib> Delryk: don't solve the whole problem at once.  Start by solving the problem of how to just find lines that contain a single 'a'
[01:28] <Distro^Junkie> any particular reason why file transfers from ubuntu to vista on dual boot are so slow ?
[01:28] <ziomus> more specific please <--noobie
[01:29] <Delryk> jrib: i got that
[01:29] <gtech> thedude42: so bus is the device type and Device is the device number? like device 003 would be the third device and come up as hiddev2?
[01:29] <korin43> c4pt, there should be an option to just accept the host cert. I don't have anything to test on right now..
[01:29] <jrib> Delryk: what's the answer to that?
[01:29] <Delryk> wait only 1 a ?
[01:29] <kilo> how do I find the location of a HD that I plug in via usb? Is it automatically  /dev/sdb1  provided no other HDs are mounted?  How do I find out??
[01:29] <Delryk> so if there is 2 a's then its invalid right ?
[01:29] <jrib> Delryk: right
[01:29] <Delryk> hah
[01:29] <OerHeks> kilo : desktop
[01:29] <Delryk> give me a minute LOL
[01:30] <trism> Delryk: need to think about matching the line as a whole
[01:30] <thedude42> gtech, right, so assume we're talking about a device like so: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c318 Logitech, Inc.
[01:30]  * Dcash needs halp
[01:30] <Delryk> trism: i dont know how to do that though
[01:30] <korin43> c4pt: For "Authentication" choose PEAP, then put in the information you have and ignore the CA Certificate part
[01:30] <thedude42> then we should be able to find the device file at /dev/bus/usb/003/002
[01:31] <Dcash> I need help connecting to the internet.  Just switched from Vista.
[01:31] <kilo> OerHeks, yes, I see it, but how do I find the location address? I'm trying to repair it via gddrescue
[01:31] <nanotube> Delryk: ^somestuff$   that says that your somestuff should match the whole string from beginning to end. that's 'matching a line as a whole'
[01:31] <Delryk> thanks nano
[01:31] <c4pt> korcan: using the TrustedCA.pem as the host cert or choosing no cert and ignore with peap its denied. with the right user and password
[01:32] <ziomus> delryk check out my msg on privey
[01:32] <ziomus> privet
[01:32] <c4pt> korcan: sorry the message was for korin43
[01:32] <kilo> wow this is frustrating.... you'd think linux would have put the address of mounted disks in an easy to find location...
[01:33] <c4pt> korin43:  using the TrustedCA.pem as the host cert or choosing no cert and ignore with peap its denied. with the right user and password
[01:33] <nanotube> Delryk: so as a hint, you're looking for a regexp that would do something like: "^0 or more nonvowels, one vowel, 0 or more non-vowels$"
[01:33] <eein> kilo, type fdisk at a terminal
[01:33] <nevets04> Hi everyone!!
[01:33] <thedude42> kilo, df -ah not work?
[01:33] <jrib> kilo: what do you mean by "address"?
[01:34] <Delryk> egrep '^a$' f3.txt   i do have a line that is just a single a
[01:34] <kilo> eein, thanks I think that worked!
[01:34] <Delryk> and that doesnt give me any rsult
[01:34] <ziomus> any1 can help me setup the network cause i can not see my sharing folder on windows
[01:34] <kilo> thedude42, THAT worked... thanks!!
[01:34] <thedude42> kilo ;)
[01:34] <kilo> jrib, nevermind, I got it... thanks though!
[01:35] <ziomus> any1?
[01:35] <nanotube> Delryk: are you sure that line only hase the one 'a' and nothing else? because that /should/ work to produce the line that only has the lone a
[01:35] <eein> kilo, actually thedude42 answer would probably be better
[01:35] <Delryk> lol nano i was using the wrong file >.<
[01:36] <kilo> eein, yes, thank you... I saw his and it worked great!  thanks for your help though
[01:36] <nanotube> Delryk: heh
[01:36] <nanotube> Delryk: well have fun, you should be able to figure it out from here, i'm going to grab some food. :)
[01:36] <Delryk> nano how ironic im ordering pizza lol
[01:36] <nanotube> heh
[01:36] <fuzzman54> My sound is higher pitched than it should be. Everything that comes out of my speakers sound like it has been chipmunked. I'm using an integrated Intel 82801BA sound card.
[01:37] <nevets04> Is irc.ubuntu.com #ubuntu, the same as irc.freenode.com #ubuntu?
[01:37] <jrib> nevets04: yes
[01:38] <nevets04> jrib, Thanks.
[01:38] <fuzzman54> I found a solution, but it's for freebsd and I don't know what the guy is talking about.

[01:45] <spinning> is there a way to list channels on this irc server?
[01:45] <korin43> DarkFeeling: What do you mean? A password on gmail, yahoo mail, etc? I doubt anyone on here will help you.
[01:45] <gtech> I'm getting the error Inappropriate ioctl for device what are the possible causes for this?
[01:45] <korin43> spinning: If you're using xchat, go to Server -> List Channels

[01:49] <korin43> _Space_Cace_: type uname -a, the part after the time and before GNU/Linux is your architecture.
[01:49] <DarkFeeling> Emmm... *looks around* yeah...
[01:49] <IdleOne> _Space_Cace_: uname -a should tell you
[01:49] <riley> Im really new to linux.. or i feel like i am.. ive been getting massive critical errors that are making me consider going back to the dark side. Is htere something im not doing with linux to prep my machine? 2 days ago i had a massive xorg failure. yesterday/today i had an io manager bad magic error.. fsck had me pretty much delete everything..

[01:50] <cedriczg> Hello Ubuntu Community
[01:50] <DarkFeeling> I may loose the semester :(
[01:50] <_Space_Cace_> i686
[01:50] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  well  you might want to notify  gmail and see if they can acomodate you
[01:50] <korin43> _Space_Cace_: i686 = 32 bit
[01:50] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  other wise you will have to  remembe
[01:50] <_Space_Cace_> uname -m i686
[01:50] <_Space_Cace_> ok ty
[01:50] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  remember the password :)
[01:51] <coz_> _Space_Cace_,  ok so 32 bit
[01:51] <DarkFeeling> I've tried... damn... I hate my brain
[01:51] <cedriczg> I am sure someone may have already fixed the problem to get a screen resolution greater that 800x600 on ubuntu 9.04... Anyone?
[01:51] <IdleOne> DarkFeeling: spend less time trying to crack password and more time rewriting the paper
[01:51] <DarkFeeling> Thanks, IdleOne, I'll try. :(
[01:52] <bikedogsolaris> cedriczg: download drivers ;) my first mistare!
[01:52] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  well there is absolutely Nothing we can do with that.... and I am sure no one here feels comfortable even contemplating  trying to help with that :)
[01:52] <riley> cedriczg: once i installed the vid driver it found it for me
[01:52] <KnifeySpooney> Hi, how do I use apt-get to download packages only, *to a specific location such as a usb drive*?
[01:52] <cedriczg> riley, which package would it be on synaptic?
[01:53] <riley> cedriczg: that depends on your graphics card
[01:53] <pfifo> cedriczg, displayconfig-gtk works for my setup
[01:53] <korin43> KnifeySpooney: apt-get -d
[01:53] <riley> anyone have any ideas as to how to avoid critical failures
[01:53] <spinning> do people mostly just sit idle on freenode?
[01:53] <KnifeySpooney> korin43: I need to download to my flash drive, not just /var/apt/cache
[01:53] <spinning> why is there hardly any chat?
[01:53] <riley> io manager bad magic?
[01:53] <coz_> spinning,  that depends on the channel and the question
[01:54] <coz_> spinning,   If I dont know the answer I generally say that  instead of remainging quiet  however if no one answers and there is activity in the channel ...it is most likely no one has an answer
[01:54] <Distro^Junkie> any particular reason for slow file transfers between ubuntu 9.04 and vista on a dual boot using the same disc ?
[01:54] <pfifo> spinning, its tottally different from efnet, people are hear to collaborate, not be entertained
[01:55] <cedriczg> riley, So can I find out which graphic card do I have. I actually don't recall the commands...
[01:55] <DarkFeeling> Well, bye geeks :(
[01:56] <DarkFeeling> I'm gunna kill myself
[01:56] <bikedogsolaris> lawlz
[01:56] <riley> cedriczg: not really sure on linux...
[01:56] <DarkFeeling> I'm kiddin' :P
[01:56] <timestandstill> Make sure you put a tarp down first or something.
[01:56] <chris-s> I have a man page file that is not correctly associated with a command, Anyone know how to view it please?   Do I setup 3 partitions for each harddrive? 1 for physical Raid, one for root and one for swap? I am bit confused. It will not let me write the partition table without a root partition
[01:59] <chris-s> Anyone know how to view a man page file please? I have the actual file, but it is not associated with a command.
[01:59] <korin43> KnifeySpooney: Except aptitude download doesn't do deps :(
[01:59] <Distro^Junkie> we don't help in illegal activity
[01:59] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  there is nothing we can do abou
[01:59] <coz_> your email
[01:59] <DarkFeeling> :(
[01:59] <jrib> DarkFeeling: please keep the discussion in this channel related to ubuntu support.  Either by asking a question or answering one
[01:59] <bikedogsolaris> DarkFeeling: go to http://linsux.org you can vent there!
[01:59] <Distro^Junkie> lo
[01:59] <Distro^Junkie> lol*
[01:59] <DarkFeeling> Alright I'll ask one...
[01:59] <DarkFeeling> Are you guys virgins???
[01:59] <DarkFeeling> LOL
[02:00] <pfifo> chris-s, if i remember correctly its gzipped, so zcat would probbally work, also just try google
[02:00] <Distro^Junkie> yeaa!!!
[02:00] <chris-s> thanks
[02:00] <coz_> DarkFeeling,  I think everyone here  trys their best to keep this channel for support with a bit of brevity
[02:00] <KnifeySpooney> korin43: Dang. That's too bad. I think I can just clear my apt cache then download all the packages and copy them over
[02:00] <riley> seriously now.. can anyone help me?
[02:00] <spinning> ok, who wants to collaborate !!
[02:00] <Delryk> hey guys i figured out my answer :D thanks for your help
[02:00] <Delryk> grep -E '\<[^aeiou]*[aeiou][^aeiou]*\>' f3.txt
[02:00]  * spinning is looking for collaborators
[02:00] <trism> Delryk: good work

[02:01] <coz_> spinning,  collboration for what?
[02:01] <Distro^Junkie> is 1 hour and 26 minutes slow for transferring 8.6 gigs to an external usb drive ?
[02:01] <Delryk> is that correct? or is there a "better" answer ?
[02:01] <spinning> for collaboration!
[02:01] <Distro^Junkie> getting less then 3 mb/s
[02:01] <jrib> Delryk: of course now you have to take into account that 'y' is sometimes a vowel!
[02:01] <Delryk> i wont give up until i get the best possible answer
[02:01] <cappicard> Distro^Junkie, that sounds like you're using usb 1.1
[02:01] <coz_> Distro^Junkie,  well yes that sounds a bit slow
[02:01] <trism> Delryk: that is basically what I had
[02:01] <korin43> Distro^Junkie: Make sure you're using a USB 2.0 port.
[02:01] <riley> am i being ignored??
[02:01] <spinning> collaboration for its own sake!!
[02:01] <jrib> Delryk: that's what I came up with
[02:01] <tiedyesmiley> i have a question i have ubuntu installed currently...can i install win7 and dual boot orr will i have to reinstall ubuntu after win7 to have the boot loader?
[02:01] <riley> no one listens to me
[02:01] <bikedogsolaris> Distro^Junkie: that is slow as fuck...
[02:01] <riley> i need real help
[02:01] <coz_> riley,   no I dont think so ...what was the question?
[02:02] <jrib> !helpme | riley
[02:02] <spinning> the good lord hears you riley
[02:02] <Distro^Junkie> its a brand new dell so it best be usb 2.0
[02:02] <riley> thanks jrib
[02:02] <pfifo> riley, try addressing the person your talking to directly
[02:02] <cedriczg> riley, Are you talking about avoiding critical failures?
[02:02] <spinning> get on a knee and pray!
[02:02] <coz_> Distro^Junkie,  then yes that verry slow
[02:02] <usr13> !grub
[02:02] <Delryk> HAHAH jrib. i dont want to have a mental break down ;)
[02:02] <riley> but it would have been awesome if someone at leased aknowledged me when i originally asked
[02:02] <Distro^Junkie> coz_: what can I do to speed it up ?
[02:03] <riley> I have been having massive errors ever since switching to linux
[02:03] <bikedogsolaris> distro^junkie: change ports...
[02:03] <jrib> riley: don't take it the wrong way, that's just how irc works.  If no one knows the answer, no one will help you
[02:03] <riley> io bad magic
[02:03] <coz_> Distro^Junkie,  well not sure from this end...  I would try to troubleshoot the usb  to make sure it is 2.0   test other devices on it to be sure it isnt the external drive itself
[02:03] <Thocrun> riley, what's up?
[02:03] <riley> and a critical xorg failure
[02:03] <cedriczg> riley, which kind of errors? Which kind of PC/laptop do you have?
[02:03] <pfifo> riley, try addressing the errors one at a time and be specific, "How do I fix a critical error"  just dosent work
[02:04] <cedriczg> riley, Did you try to update all your system with last updates?
[02:04] <ubuntu> olaaaa
[02:04] <rictec> critical error? where?
[02:04] <coz_> Distro^Junkie,  if it turns out it is the external drive  I would immediately remove as much data from it as possible before it dies on you
[02:05] <riley> i have a dell latitude d830 x64, 2gb. i have had the entire system lock into ro and fixed that via fsck. then my xorg failed.
[02:05] <rabbitofdeath> Distro^Junkie what kind of filesystm are you using?
[02:05] <cedriczg> riley, Do you have loggin enabled on your system? you can try to check on your messages
[02:05] <riley> i had to reinstall at that point and less than 24 hours later i recieved an io manager bad magic
[02:05] <cedriczg> riley, try "grep -i error /var/log/messages" on a terminal to see what kind of message error you see
[02:06] <riley> i update as much as possible and run an fsck whenever i think of it
[02:06] <Thocrun> riley, did the computer print any error codes?, what programs where you using?
[02:06] <number11u-max> riley: make it work and never update again!
[02:06] <rictec> dell d839 with whitch config?
[02:06] <cedriczg> riley, Which Linux have you installed on your Dell ?
[02:06] <riley> cedriczg, after teh io manager bad magic error it pretty much wiped the drive, its empty
[02:07] <riley> linuxmint when my xorg failed
[02:07] <pfifo> could be the drive
[02:07] <cedriczg> riley, Which linux did you installed and which steps did you follow?
[02:07] <riley> and ubuntu when my io failed
[02:07] <shawn_> WIth nvidia twinview is there any way to add a taskbar to my second screen?
[02:07] <cedriczg> riley, Linuxmint?
[02:08] <riley> yes
[02:08] <riley> its an ubuntu variant
[02:08] <pfifo> shawn_, try gnome-panel on that screen (from a terminal) then logoff choosing to save settings
[02:08] <coz_> shawn_,   I dont believe so  however you can change a settings in the xorg so that  the panels stretch across both screens  ...the down side is that  maximized windows also open across both screens
[02:08] <Distro^Junkie> rabbitofdeath: sorry I'm using ext3 on ubuntu and its being transferred to a ntfs formatted usb external.... its even slow sending to vistal on a dual boot
[02:08] <rictec> mint?
[02:08] <cedriczg> riley, I am checking now on web. I was not aware of that flavour
[02:09] <coz_> linux mint
[02:09] <Thocrun> riley, what (if any) error codes did it say?
[02:09] <etech> Crunchbang for my Dell Mini 9
[02:09] <shawn_> pfifo "Cannot register the panel shell: There is already one running.
[02:09] <coz_> crunchbang is cool
[02:09] <rictec> never tryed mint yet
[02:10] <riley> fsck came back with "IO Manager Bad Magic!" then stopped, so i ran it again, and when i let it "fixed" the errors.. it deleted everything from my drive
[02:10] <pfifo> shawn_, was just a guess, havent used twinview since 32MB was top of the line for a video card
[02:10] <rabbitofdeath> Distro^Junkie personally ive never had good speed when copying to an ntfs drive, ive always used ext3 or 4, but i chalk that up to my old slow drive...
[02:11] <rabbitofdeath>  also are you using cli to copy or nautalis?
[02:11] <Distro^Junkie> both are new drives
[02:11] <roffe> I downloaded virtualbox 3.0.8, but now I can't find it in the menu. How do I run it from the terminal?
[02:11] <etech> got 2 go 73s to all
[02:11] <cedriczg> riley, Have you tried again a clean install?
[02:11] <riley> not yet
[02:12] <cedriczg> riley, Does Linuxmint have a liveCD ?
[02:12] <Conexion> Hey all, I'm using Karmic, and have noticed it doesn't use an xorg.conf - How might I add a resolution to use instead of the default 800x600?
[02:12] <riley> im via livecd right now. wanted to see if i was doing something wrong or missing a step after install
[02:12] <riley> cedriczg: yes
[02:12] <rictec> that error is a hard disk error
[02:12] <riley> rictec: the IO error?
[02:12] <cedriczg> Conexion, I am trying to resolve same thing with an ubuntu 9.04. I assume we have to add the correct drivers
[02:12] <trism> shawn_: try https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+question/8152
[02:12] <roffe> how do I run the virtualbox?
[02:12] <pfifo> riley, you rin fsck alot you say? have you run fsck on a mounted filesystem?
[02:12] <rictec> riley: what smart drive say on bios?
[02:12] <pfifo> run*
[02:12] <b1shop> can you boot the livecd into runlevel 3?
[02:13] <rictec> probably backup and replace
[02:13] <cedriczg> Conexion, As far as I know this command can tell you which graphic card you have "  sudo update-pciids; sudo lspci | grep VGA "
[02:13] <riley> pfifo: yes
[02:13] <Conexion> cedriczg: You'd think Ubuntu would be able to detect that I'm virtualizing it in VirtualBox
[02:13] <pfifo> riley, running fsck n a mounted filesystem causes sever damage, thats what your problem is
[02:13] <Conexion> I'll try that
[02:13] <rictec> riley: check if smartdrive is on on you dell bios
[02:13] <Distro^Junkie> rabbitofdeath: nautilas
[02:14] <BoxMagnet> installing nfs-common fails and says initscript nfs action start failed?? t
[02:14] <riley> rictec: what am i looking for
[02:14] <roffe> how do I run the virtualbox?
[02:14] <riley> pfifo: reaaaallly
[02:14] <cedriczg> Conexion, It should do. And that command would check on your graphic card (i.e. hardware)
[02:14] <guatenoob> hi guys, someone with experience using apt-mirror ?
[02:14] <rictec> riley: a smardrive option on dell bios
[02:14] <cedriczg> Conexion, Give it a try and let me know
[02:14] <Conexion> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter - that's what I get
[02:15] <cedriczg> Conexion, Hablás español?
[02:15] <pfifo> riley, yes, really, you have to boot a livecd or another install to fsck your root filesystem
[02:15] <riley> rictec: once i find smartdrive... what do i do?
[02:15] <riley> pfifo: interestiing.. damn.
[02:15] <gmap> how much space should i leave for a /boot partition?
[02:15] <Conexion> Actualy, I don't :p
[02:15] <BoxMagnet> installing nfs-common fails and says initscript nfs action start failed?? t
[02:15] <rictec> put it on riley it will check your hard drive for hardware errors
[02:15] <guatenoob> i need some help, i tell is downloading cause conky tells me the download speed, but i dont see any changes in my hard disk space, any advice _
[02:15] <guatenoob> ?
[02:15] <cap> I have a broadcom Wireless card in this Dell X300 laptop, it's a bcm4306  Any ideas on how to get it to work?
[02:15] <cap> Or should I just junk it?
[02:15] <rictec> and if it finds one it will tell you to backup and replace the hardisk
[02:15] <pfifo> riley, you dont need to run fsck hardly ever, its automated... this leads to the question, what were you trying to fix with fsck?
[02:15] <riley> rictec: gotcha.  Buy another wireless card?
[02:16] <rictec> riley: most of them have that option disable on bios it saves boot time
[02:16] <cap> It is a Dell Latitude x300
[02:16] <riley> pfifo: um... not sure. with my string of luck i figured it didnt hurt to check often...
[02:16] <BoxMagnet> installing nfs-common fails and says initscript nfs action start failed?? t
[02:16] <korin43> pfifo: Couldn't you kill X, then remove the drive ro?
[02:16] <number11u-max> i need to stop chewing guitar picks... http://imgur.com/NUVnr.jpg
[02:17] <riley> did i read that Karmic does not use xorg?
[02:17] <pfifo> korin43, yeah you can mount RO as well, but that is more trouble than just restarting imho
[02:17] <number11u-max> karmic uses xorg
[02:17] <rictec> mine does to
[02:18] <riley> dang
[02:18] <pfifo> riley, i recommend formating your hard drive and doing a fresh install.
[02:18] <riley> ok im going to go check my bios for smart disc. then clean install.. and this time only fsck if the boot fails. and if i do that.. itll be from a livecd. Thanks guys
[02:18] <cap> Any help for the I-cant-connect-to-my-wireless-lan syndrome?
[02:18] <number11u-max> riley: windows and mac don't use xorg... and opensolaris uses magic!
[02:19] <BoxMagnet> installing nfs-common fails and says initscript nfs action start failed?? t
[02:19] <riley> im not a fan of magic.. if i ever meet cris angel hes getting punched in his nancy mouth
[02:19] <pfifo> number11u-max, x11 works on windows lol
[02:19] <socceroos> when's the RC going to be released?
[02:19] <stone1343> anyone have any idea why the Karmic Live CD runs fine to install but when I re-boot, the white ubuntu logo displays but the system hangs?
[02:20] <Thocrun> riley, look anything like this problem? http://lists.linuxcoding.com/rhl/2005/msg50479.html
[02:20] <number11u-max> pfifo: it does?! lawl...
[02:20] <rictec> stone1343: alt-f1? does anythinh?
[02:20] <pfifo> stone1343, you can remove the quiet option from the menu.lst to see the kernel messages, would at least give some hints
[02:20] <riley> thocrun: YES
[02:21] <cap> Help, Im a prisoner in the I-cant-connect-to-my-wireless-lan-syndrome!
[02:21] <riley> Thocrun: my second fsck yeilded a much different result though
[02:21] <stone1343> ok i'll try those...
[02:21] <riley> Thocrun: instead of giving me specific blocks that had failed.. fsck deleted EVERYTHING
[02:22] <Thocrun> riley, what did the second fsck say?
[02:22] <Thocrun> or did that page answer everything?
[02:22] <pfifo> Thocrun, he ran fsck on a mounted partition
[02:22] <cap> Ok, that does it.  I'm ditching this bcm4306 (I'll get an Intell Pro2200 and live happily ever after)!  :)
[02:23] <Thocrun> pfifo, ok I guess that solved that.
[02:23] <riley> haha guys.. i didnt know!! haha
[02:23] <riley> i do now.. and i will not fsck a mounted partitioin
[02:23] <rictec> still check the smartdrive option
[02:24] <riley> rictec: roger that
[02:24] <Thocrun> niether did I know lol
[02:24] <riley> Thocrun, had you done that before?
[02:24] <Thocrun> riley, untill I googled it!
[02:24] <riley> haha damn. so i dont feel so bad now haha
[02:24] <gmap> how much space should i leave for a /boot partition?
[02:24] <Thocrun> I am taking computer support classes though
[02:24] <number11u-max> i accidentially my harddrive...
[02:25] <trism> gmap: I usually do about 100MB
[02:25] <Thocrun> they say to get all the info I can out of the user, It ussually is a big key toi solving almost everything.
[02:25] <riley> then tell them to reboot
[02:25] <cap> FYI - the gparted bootable CD has a nice fsck interface - does a great job.  Its a very nice tool to have on hand.
[02:26] <cap> Don't leave home without it!
[02:26] <Thocrun> or a good amount of things., not saying fsck is bad though, I love just about everything opensource.
[02:26] <gmap> trism: thanks
[02:26] <riley> ok so task list for tonight 1. check smartdrive 2. clean install 3. get gparted?
[02:27] <IdleOne> riley: switch 2 and 3
[02:28] <rictec> with a live cd you can get gparted to check your disks
[02:28] <cap> rictec is correct.
[02:28] <riley> oh.. so i have gparted
[02:28] <number11u-max> gparted livecd couldn't start X!
[02:28] <Thocrun> riley, I think I googled to find gparted, but I think there's another one with it that is suppose to be able to do a lot like windows disk manager.
[02:29] <riley> is gparted on my ubuntu disc?
[02:29] <riley> livecd
[02:29] <cap> number11u-max: It's ran fine on every PC I've used it on.
[02:29] <number11u-max> it might not have burned right from opensolaris...
[02:29] <number11u-max> opensolaris=greatest OS ever!
[02:30] <rictec> number11u-max: did the live cd works? whatis you video card?
[02:30] <number11u-max> nVidia geforce 610m
[02:30] <stone1343> hello again, what should I hope Alt-F1 does, open the menu? the system is well & truly hung, the only thing I can do is hold down power button until it turns off
[02:31] <cap> riley: Yes I think you can run it of the Ubuntu live CD, but make sure the target partion has not been mounted.
[02:31] <cap> riley: Best to get gparted bootable CD.
[02:31] <number11u-max> stone1343: hit Ctrl=Alt+Bksp
[02:31] <stone1343> it's anew computer, i think it's an issue of hardware that isn't supported
[02:31] <BoxMagnet> can someone tell me what the proper command in ubuntu to mount a nfs file system is ?????????
[02:31] <Thocrun>  riley,about gparted:  I think there's another one with it that is suppose to be able to do a lot like windows disk manager.
[02:32] <Thocrun> BoxMagnet, ntfs?
[02:32] <BoxMagnet> Thocrun, no nfs, network file system.
[02:32] <BoxMagnet> !nfs
[02:32] <riley> Thocrun, Cap, Piffo. thanks a ton for the help guys. I was dreading going back to the world of windows
[02:33] <riley> also Rictec and Number11u-max thank you for your help as well
[02:33] <Magnesium> BoxMagnet: Try fileshareset --add directory_name
[02:33] <rictec> number11u-max try to boot with vesa option your card is a pain in every os
[02:33] <number11u-max> you're welcome!
[02:33] <Thocrun> your welcome!!!!
[02:33] <number11u-max> ritec: i know, ubuntu live cd has me covered though!
[02:34] <BoxMagnet> Magnesium, what is that
[02:34] <stone1343> chroot cannot execute /etc/apparmor/initramfs no such file or directory
[02:34] <Magnesium> !fileshareset
[02:34] <stone1343> run-init /sbin/init no such file or directory
[02:34] <stone1343> kernel panic npot syncing attempted to kill init
[02:34] <number11u-max> !solaris
[02:35] <Magnesium> BoxMagnet: Okay, look at man fileshareset...it appears that that adds an nfs share
[02:35] <cap> riley: I recommend going to gparted.sourceforge.net and downlad the live CD. (The ISO is only 100MB).
[02:35] <rictec> cap: riley as left the building lol
[02:35] <Magnesium> BoxMagnet: I have not used it, though, so I don't know for sure
[02:35] <cap> rictec: O
[02:35] <newbiewednesday> my sound isn't working
[02:36] <cap>  !sound
[02:36] <number11u-max> does anybody remember what a webTV is?
[02:36] <cap>  !audio
[02:37] <shortlord> how can I turn off the standard system beep that happens sometimes?
[02:37] <cap> number11u-max: No what is a webTV?
[02:37] <ftw> I have one in my closet, number11u-max
[02:37] <number11u-max> ftw, explain to cap then, please!
[02:38] <ftw> An early 1990's set top box by Microsoft, with dialup internet access and a web browser.
[02:38] <ftw> Quite slow and primitive.
[02:38] <Thocrun> BoxMagnet, what server version (ex. 9.04) are you using?
[02:38] <Magnesium> cap: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebTV
[02:38] <BoxMagnet> Thocrun, 9.10
[02:38] <dmg> after updating to karmic, alsa appears to be broken.  The alsa devices in /dev/snd aren't getting created.
[02:38] <killazzz> hi somwone know how to see wich operating system device use from wifi ?
[02:39] <ftw> More succinct, Magnesium. Props.
[02:39] <cedriczg> shortlord, go to system > preferences > sound
[02:39] <cedriczg> shortlord, and then uncheck for bell system tab
[02:39] <dmg> All I've found with googling are generic alsa trouble shooting guides .. my problem is that alsa _is_ finding the card, the modules are loaded, /proc/asound is populated
[02:39] <Magnesium> ftw: Wikipedia is my friend...I am smart with it...haha
[02:40] <killazzz> hi somwone know how to see wich operating system device use from wifi ?
[02:40] <dmg> but all the sound apps fail with snd_ctl_open failed for default
[02:40] <cedriczg> killazzz, what do you mean by operating system from wifi?
[02:40] <killazzz> to see if they roll on windows 7 or mac or linux ubuntu 9.04 etc
[02:40] <gmap> i just installed ubuntu server with software raid following this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID#Configuring%20the%20RAID when I boot up i get no block devices found
[02:41] <cedriczg> killazzz, you mean to know what operating system you are running? you can try "uname -a" command
[02:41] <Thocrun> BoxMagnet, sudo mount example.hostname.com:/ubuntu /local/ubuntu
[02:41] <Thocrun>  , or sudo mount (IP Address of Other computer you are trying to connect to) :/ubuntu /local/ubuntu
[02:41] <shortlord> cedriczg, I am in the dialog now, I see to tabs, "Devices" and "sounds", but there is not "bell system tab"
[02:41] <boscop> I installed msttcorefonts, but they don't show up in the fonts list even after restarting open office writer!
[02:41] <killazzz> not mine other on wifi
[02:41] <defn> I need to install termcap-compat on ubuntu 9.04 64 but there is no package.  "emacs -nw" keeps throwing "emacs: cannot open termcap database file"
[02:41] <killazzz> to detect on other machine
[02:41] <cedriczg> shortlord, what version?linux are you using?
[02:41] <shortlord> cedriczg, Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04
[02:42] <shortlord> or are you referring to the kernel? should be the latest, 2.6.18
[02:42] <stone1343> I suspect my problem is ubuntu doesn't support some hardware in this new computer. Any idea how I can diagnose this?
[02:42] <cap> Ok, ok, I remember the webtv set top box, yes.
[02:42] <Magnesium> defn: termcap should be in the qemacs package...can you try sudo apt-get install qemacs?
[02:43] <rictec> stone lspci
[02:43] <cedriczg> shortlord, Interesting. I checked on 9.04 and that option is no more there. I am still running 8.04 on my laptop, and that option was on 8.04
[02:43] <cap> I suppose now, we might call TWiT Live (or one of those streaming things) webTV.
[02:43] <cap> Right?
[02:43] <cap> Maybe?
[02:43] <Magnesium> cap: Kinda...
[02:44] <rictec> cap: old stuff mode?
[02:44] <Magnesium> cap: Or like slingbox, maybe
[02:44] <stone1343> rictec, lspci won't work - it freezes during boot
[02:44] <shortlord> cedriczg, oh, ok. any idea how to mute that system bell without this dialog?
[02:44] <cedriczg> shortlord, I suppose on Sounds you should uncheck reproduce alert sounds, but not sure
[02:44] <rictec> stone what linux is it?
[02:44] <cap> Well, now slingbox, that is like a media center for your LAN, I think... I dono, don't have one.
[02:45] <dmg> so, nobody else had issues of alsa devices disappearing during an upgrade?
[02:45] <cap> I have a DVR tho
[02:45] <stone1343> ubuntu karmic desktop<PHONE_NUMBER>0.3
[02:45] <cap> would like to build MythTV tho.
[02:45] <cedriczg> shortlord, Did that help?
[02:45] <Magnesium> cap: I don't have one either...but I think it lets you share video, etc., over your LAN, or over the internet.
[02:45] <rictec> stone on the boot menu what it says about kernel version?
[02:46] <Magnesium> cap: Maybe Slingbox is more like the opposite of WebTV...
[02:46] <shortlord> cedriczg, nope, it doesn't help "(
[02:46] <cap> Magnesium: Yes, I think you can download over the internet and save / share over your LAN.
[02:46] <cedriczg> killazzz, what was that invite about you sent?
[02:46] <bostrt> hi i am having  a serious problem with my printer. It printed fine earlier. I tried to install foo2zjs drivers b/c slideshows were taking a long time to print. Now the only way i can get it to print is too boot into my Arch linux and then reboot into ubuntu and then print

[02:51] <stone1343> rictec: how? is that by editing the grub command? never done that
[02:51] <cap> Thanks IdleOne (don't remember who asked, but...)
[02:52] <rictec> stone its by pressing c befoure boot

[02:52] <bostrt> phil_fl, it says i can cat the firmware do /dev/usb/lp0 , that path does not exist on my comp
[02:52] <killazzz> so somewone is willing to help here ?

[02:53] <server1> any router that u want to recommend?
[02:53] <server1> i can get a router
[02:53] <nordhri> How do I run fsck.vfat on a drive?  I tried fsck.vfat -a /media/disk but it says its a folder
[02:53] <teknozwizard> server1: Linksys Wireless Routers are good routers.
[02:53] <lstarnes> nordhri: you need to use its /dev node
[02:53] <cap> nordhri: /dev/hdx
[02:53] <stone1343> rictec: type "disable apic acpi no probe"
[02:54] <cap> nordhri: or /dev/sdx
[02:54] <kisuke> how do i turn up the sound on my ubuntu even with volume maxed in system tray/area/thing is still realy quiet
[02:54] <server1> it means if i use linksys i dont have to deal with gateway firewall?
[02:54] <cap> nordhri: But umount it first
[02:54] <nordhri> ok I will see if I can figure it out... brb
[02:54] <rictec> acpi=off OR noacpi
[02:54] <cap> nordhri: mount | grep /media/disk
[02:54] <rictec> stone check this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[02:55] <stone1343> rictec: i will, thanks
[02:55] <rictec> maybe one option will make it work
[02:55] <cap> nordhri: mount | grep /media/disk ; umount /media/disk
[02:55] <nordhri> cap ok its unmounted
[02:56] <cap> nordhri: and then fsck the /dev/hdxx where hdxx is the actual drive and partition, like /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda2
[02:56] <server1> also i need to set up vanity ip can i do it without owning a domain name
[02:56] <nordhri> cap, how do I find that info?
[02:56] <cap> nordhri: mount | grep /media/disk  would have told you.
[02:57] <cap> nordhri: or do: sudo fdisk -l
[02:57] <kisuke> server1: try dyndns.org
[02:57] <cap> nordhri: make darn sure you get the right partition.
[02:57] <halp> hey all, so im using ubuntu to save my friend's windows system...got a bsod code 0x07B. any recommendations?
[02:57] <nordhri> cap,  this is the one Disk /dev/sdb: 750.1 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>16 bytes
[02:58] <kisuke> halp try 3windows
[02:58] <IdleOne> halp: ##windows
[02:58] <cap> nordhri: But how many partitions are on it?
[02:58] <kisuke> halp: try #windows
[02:58] <halp> ahh thanks
[02:58] <cap> nordhri:  /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 ?
[02:58] <rictec> that error cod is a pain.....memory related p
[02:58] <nordhri> cap, none that I am aware of... mostly used for back up and storage but it switched to read-only for some reason
[02:59] <cap> nordhri: or just  /dev/sda1 ?
[02:59] <cap> nordhri: sudo fdisk -l  /dev/sd*
[02:59] <halp> emm...how do i get to #wondows? lol
[02:59] <halp> still a nub
[02:59] <cap> halp: /join #windows
[02:59] <halp> ty
[03:00] <cap> np
[03:00] <kisuke> halp: try "/join #windows"
[03:00] <crohakon> I cannot stop saying the 'word' "halp"
[03:01] <nordhri> cap, I am sure its this one   Disk /dev/sdb1: 750.1 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>24 bytes
[03:01] <nordhri> cap, so just sdb1
[03:01] <cap> nordhri: Ok so there you go
[03:01] <cap> nordhri: no,  /dev/sdb1
[03:02] <nordhri> cap,  can you type the command I'm noob at this side of Linux
[03:02] <cap> fsck.vfat -a /dev/sdb1
[03:02] <nordhri> thanks man... brb
[03:02] <cap> nordhri:  if vfat is actually the filesystem that is on it.
[03:03] <rictec> vfat=fat32
[03:03] <nordhri> well I found someone had the same problem and they ran both vfat and ext3 on theirs
[03:03] <cap> nordhri: Well, find out which it is.
[03:03] <cap> nordhri: fdisk is your friend.
[03:03] <zopiac> is there a way to get, say, command+s to write an ß, etc., like a mac does?
[03:04] <alshuhail> مرحبا
[03:04] <nordhri> cap so I just type fdisck?
[03:04] <cap> nordhri: sudo fdisk -l

[03:08] <rictec> didnt you put acpi=off
[03:08] <BoxMagnet> is nfs significantly faster than samba for sharing between 2 linux boxes????
[03:08] <tck9> anyone here use netcat to test speed?
[03:08] <Delvien> n #ubuntu-us-oh
[03:08] <stone1343> rictec: yes i did
[03:09] <nordhri> cap, still here?
[03:09] <rictec> BoxMagnet, for me it way faster

[03:09] <kisuke> boogz what error do you get?

[03:10] <rictec> BoxMagnet, permitions thats all about permitions
[03:10] <Thocrun> BoxMagnet, of course you can only go as fast as your hardware, besides using overclocking for processors
[03:11] <BoxMagnet> rictec, its 777
[03:11] <nordhri> cap, still here?
[03:11] <rictec> BoxMagnet, its permitions...for sure recheck on the nfs server side
[03:11] <cap> gem nordhri yes
[03:11] <cap> nordhri: yes.
[03:11] <nordhri> cap, ok that looks like it worked.. but
[03:12] <stone1343> rictec: the messages look a lot like what you see here http://www.nabble.com/LMMS-0.4.3-completely-freezes-computer-when-loading-any-VST-plugin-td23375546.html

[03:13] <Ububegin> when u install software via Synaptic, does it automatically add an entry in */usr/lib/pkgconfig/opencv.pc* ..The thing is I have installed new version of opencv.pc via compiling source.. Even though, i have added the new path to PKG_CONFIG_PATH. It still prints the old location, when I do pkg-config --cflags opencv.. Any help

[03:13] <Boogz> dont know what sudo is sorry im a noob
[03:14] <cap> nordhri: fsck would not change file extensions.  I don't know what would have caused something like what you described.
[03:14] <rictec> BoxMagnet, what is the server side?
[03:14] <nordhri> cap, it changed the files I thought I moved there yesterday  now they all have names like FSK0067.REC
[03:14] <eniacpx> .quit
[03:15] <BoxMagnet> rictec, that is server side
[03:15] <rictec> BoxMagnet, what OS

[03:19] <cap> nordhri:  You need to look for another culprit.
[03:19] <nordhri> cap, want a screenshot?

[03:23] <nordhri> cap,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/298738/      you will see that I renamed one to avril.zip
[03:23] <kernel> ninjaaaa: put display to sleep when inactive is more than setting screensaver.
[03:24] <ninjaaaa> kernel: what are you talking about?
[03:24] <kernel> ninjaaaa: on screensaver setting. find it.
[03:24] <ninjaaaa> i have it on

[03:24] <nordhri> cap,  brb
[03:25] <rictec> stone1343, what machine is that
[03:25] <stone1343> rictec: acer AS1410, very new model I just bought today
[03:25] <mankash> Does Ubuntu supports the icons at the bottom like windows 7?
[03:25] <mankash> on the desktop
[03:26] <ninjaaaa> kernel: ive had it on
[03:26] <Boogz> what is best linux to learn on???
[03:26] <kernel> ninjaaaa: click on activate screensaver when computer idle. done?
[03:26] <cap> nordhri: What were the filenemes before? (what are they supposed to be?  .zip?)  (If they are supposed to be .zip you can globally change them back.)
[03:26] <stone1343> rictec: that's always been one of my questions, is it possibly new unsupported h/w?
[03:26] <ninjaaaa> i had already done that
[03:26] <rictec> stone1343, more like a lyer of a bios
[03:27] <ninjaaaa> kernel
[03:27] <Cyrano_De> mankash: There are several alternative dock bars.  Avant Window Navigator is one that you can customize.
[03:27] <rictec> stone1343, i m looking for the spec of that is an aspire right
[03:27] <kernel> ninjaaaa: to try it. regard computer as idle after. don't so long. same it.
[03:27] <Ububegin>  when u install software via Synaptic, does it automatically add an entry in */usr/lib/pkgconfig/opencv.pc* ..The thing is I have installed new version of opencv.pc via compiling source.. Even though, i have added the new path to PKG_CONFIG_PATH. It still prints the old location, when I do pkg-config --cflags opencv.. Any help
[03:27] <stone1343> rictec: yes
[03:27] <nordhri> cap, some are .zip others are .svg still others are .png or .jpg etc
[03:28] <rictec> stone1343, please tell me on the botton its say the model as1410-xxxxx
[03:28] <ninjaaaa> kernel: ???????????????????????/
[03:28] <Ububegin> any one knows about pkg-config .. TIA
[03:28] <nordhri> cap, no worries.. the main thing is that its working as usual again.. the clean up is minimal..
[03:30] <kernel> ninjaaaa: same it with power management.
[03:30] <Boogz> am i talking in correct window???
[03:30] <cap> nordhri: for i in *.REC; do mv "$i" "`basename "$i" .REC` .zip"; done  #To change them all to .zip  (and if that was the majority of what they were, start there)
[03:30] <rictec> yep those two are bots
[03:30] <ae86-drifter> im not a bot
[03:30] <Zuz|Kubuntu> anyone familiar with wine?
[03:30] <Boogz> is ubuntu best to learn with???

[03:31] <greensimian1> I am running an ION mobo and today a Kernel update was release in Ubuntu  that crapped out my video driver.
[03:31] <greensimian1> Do you think re-running the driver install would help?
[03:31] <cap> nordhri: file *    # Will tell you what they all are supposed to be.
[03:31] <andresj> hello, how do I make my pc act as a non-NAT switch?
[03:31] <Flannel> Boogz: It is a good candidate if you're starting out, yes.
[03:32] <rictec> stone1343, 8807 is a no show lol
[03:32] <cap> nordhri: or just run:  file *   # Start changing as needed.
[03:32] <Boogz> flannel how do i talk to just you?
[03:32] <Boogz> or make it red like that
[03:32] <nordhri> cap, woah! nice thanks!
[03:32] <Cyrano_De> Boogz: ubuntu is a great desktop to learn on.  If you want to learn on the version you will find in many enterprise datacenters you might want to look at CentOS as that is based on Red Hat Enterprise.
[03:32] <Flannel> Boogz: You just did, by using my name on the same line (you can also type a few letters and hit tab to complete my name in most clients)
[03:32] <Cyrano_De> Boogz: For general Linux usage Ubuntu is great.
[03:32] <nordhri> cap, so the ones that say "data" would be what?
[03:33] <xrandr> anyone know any good sound editors (like roxio's spin doctor) for linux?
[03:33] <Boogz> flannel do you know how i can copy files to my external hdd says  Error opening file '/media/disk/Rodney carrington - live at the majestic.avi': Permission denied
[03:33] <Schnork> hi
[03:33] <Zuz|Kubuntu> im trying to get my usb headset to be used with a program, but i dont know if there are drivers for it
[03:34] <Zuz|Kubuntu> in wine*
[03:34] <Boogz> Cyrano_De, ok so ill stick with it
[03:34] <cap> nordhri:  If you create files on a MS Windows system, and if you intend to deal with them and negotiate them on the MS Windows system, you should handle all those functions from the MS Windows system, (including repairing filesystem corruption issues).
[03:34] <xrandr> Boogz: use sudo cp <source> <target>
[03:34] <roffe> I just ran XP in virtualbox, but for some reason it's only a small window. And choosing fullscreen didn't help
[03:34] <angelus> could someone point me towards a media player where i can change the Song Title simply by "Right Click >> Rename Option" .....
[03:34] <xrandr> angelus: songbird
[03:34] <Schnork> the "task bar" is freezed, I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me ?
[03:34] <nordhri> cap, I don't have windows on this system any more...
[03:34] <Cyrano_De> xrandr: I have no idea what roxio's spin doctor does but Audacity gets a lot of good press for audio editing.
[03:34] <Boogz> xrandr im not familier with the sudo yet how can i learn about it?
[03:35] <ninjaaaa> kernelLove: thanks it worked
[03:35] <cap> nordhri: Ok, then disreguard the above... but just FYI.
[03:35] <ae86-drifter> Zuz|Kubuntu: wine will not make ur windows drivers work
[03:35] <LeNsTR> roffe: install guest-additional in guest os
[03:35] <ae86-drifter> Zuz|Kubuntu:  wine is not an emulator
[03:35] <frogzoo> Boogz: man sudo
[03:35] <stone1343> rictec: got disconnected, did you say anything to me?
[03:35] <ninjaaaa> kernelLove: thanks  it worked
[03:35] <kernelLove> ninjaaaa: what love/friend are for.
[03:35] <angelus> xrandr, thank you ...
[03:36] <BoxMagnet> have a weird problem, a subdirectory of a directory i am sharing using nfs (in /etc/exports) is not being shared, although all the other folders in the shared dir are, the dir not being shared is a partition mounted in a sub dir of the server's home folder. (it works in samba)
[03:36] <xrandr> Cyrano_De: thought about audacity. It's just not as easy to use as Spin Doctor
[03:36] <ninjaaaa> ?
[03:36] <xrandr> angelus: no problem :)
[03:36] <kernelLove> kidding.
[03:36] <rictec> stone1343, i dont find that 8807 anywhere
[03:36] <kernelLove> no problem
[03:36] <Boogz> frogzoo, ???
[03:36] <nordhri> cap,  thanks.. ok question.. fsk0009.rec through fsk0031.rec are of .png type  how did you say I can change those all at once?
[03:36] <cap> nordhri: THe filesystem may have been pretty much unrecoverable anyway. (If all the files were not data files in the first place). If they were data files, they may have originally had .dat extensions. Right?
[03:36] <stone1343> rictec: yes it is a new model
[03:36] <xrandr> Boogz: it's simple. prepend the command u want to run with sudo :)
[03:36] <zenlunatic> or4n: probably imagemagick
[03:37] <roffe> LeNsTR, Thanks, I'll try that
[03:37] <xrandr> ie: sudo cp /home/boogz/myfile.avi /media/disk/myfile.avi
[03:37] <ninjaaaa> how did you get kernel to point to kernelLove ?
[03:37] <zenlunatic> nordhri: probably imagemagick
[03:37] <Zuz|Kubuntu> ae86-drifter: when i test the sounds in wine config it wont play on my headset
[03:37] <zenlunatic> or4n: sorry disregard
[03:37] <BoxMagnet> have a weird problem, a subdirectory of a directory i am sharing using nfs (in /etc/exports) is not being shared, although all the other folders in the shared dir are, the dir not being shared is a partition mounted in a sub dir of the server's home folder. (it works in samba)
[03:37] <cap> fsk0009 - fsk0031 are images?
[03:37] <stone1343> rictec: can it be so new that ubuntu won't run?
[03:37] <nordhri> zenlunatic, thanks
[03:37] <nordhri> cap,  yes
[03:37] <PhantomLink> I am happy to say that I've finally made the switch to ubuntu from windoze xp
[03:37] <PhantomLink> :D
[03:37] <Schnork> the "task bar" is freezed, I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me ?
[03:37] <gem> I just installed a new applet "link-monitor-applet" using Synaptic Package Manager -- but how do I start the thing ?? and where is it ?!
[03:37] <xrandr> BoxMagnet: that's.... odd
[03:37] <zenlunatic> Schnork: restart x
[03:38] <rictec> stone1343, without the specs
[03:38] <kernelLove> ninjaaaa: it's means i don't have trouble with kernel. lol
[03:38] <nordhri> cap, most of these are images since I am a graphics person
[03:38] <BoxMagnet> xrandr, yes very
[03:38] <zenlunatic> whats a graphics person
[03:38] <cap> nordhri:  move them to a separate directory and customize the above command and globally change them all to .png
[03:38] <ninjaaaa> ok
[03:38] <xrandr> so, what's the benefits of having your home directory encrypted? I'm using karmic (and i know  the support is in #ubuntu+1)
[03:38] <gem> Any assistance ? :: I just installed a new applet "link-monitor-applet" using Synaptic Package Manager -- but how do I start the thing ?? and where is it ?!
[03:38] <xrandr> wouldn't it take longer to acccess the files if they're encrypted?
[03:38] <nordhri> zenlunatic, Graphics person == lunatic who rarely sleeps and creates works of art like logos, 3d models and such
[03:38] <Schnork> zenlunatic: How can I launch a terminal without the taskbar ? :s
[03:39] <Prodego> that sounds useful if you are paranoid xrandr
[03:39] <ninjaaaa> thank you. have a good day/night where ever you are
[03:39] <cap> nordhri: and then deal with the rest on individual basis, and then you can move them back.
[03:39] <zenlunatic> Schnork: cntrl-alt-f1
[03:39] <lstarnes> xrandr: the main reason for encrypting it is to prevent it from being read by others in case your hard drive or computer gets stolen
[03:39] <stone1343> rictec what specs do you need?
[03:39] <vvviper|a> xrandr: if you have a laptop it's a good benefit if your laptop is stolen
[03:39] <nordhri> cap, good idea
[03:39] <nordhri> brb
[03:39] <vvviper|a> xrandr: means whoever stole it can't read data in your home dir
[03:39] <RebelZero> BoxMagnet, look into using nohide and/or crossmnt in your /etc/exports. "man exports" will explain how they work
[03:39] <rictec> stone1343, chipset etc all of them
[03:39] <BoxMagnet> RebelZero, ok, will look. thanks
[03:40] <frogzoo> xrandr: encrypting your hard drive makes you data inaccessible to everyone but the NSA, including yourself if you lose the key
[03:40] <stone1343> it;s the intel su3500 chip
[03:40] <kakashi> hi guys, someone with experience installing a local repository ?
[03:40] <cap> nordhri: for i in *.REC; do mv "$i" "`basename "$i" .REC` .png"; done  #To change them all to .png
[03:40] <xrandr> frogzoo: sounds like a can of worms for inexperienced linux users
[03:40] <frogzoo> it is
[03:40] <nordhri> cap, thanks man
[03:41] <Schnork> zenlunatic: Thanks for the ctrl alt f1
[03:41] <stone1343> rictec It's even more confusing because the Live CD works
[03:41] <rictec> stone1343, livecd 9.10 beta right?
[03:41] <xrandr> i thought about encrypting my drive, but i thoight better of it
[03:42] <cap> nordhri: Keep in mind also, that [unlike MS systems] linux is case sensitive.  REC is not rec
[03:42] <Sp3c1alK> is there a program for ubuntu that bounces a connection back to the source? Say some IP is trying to conenct to me but I don't want them to, and instead I somehow make my IP theirs, so they're really connecting ot themselves?
[03:42] <xrandr> I think it's a good idea for users in a work environment with a shared desktop
[03:42] <BoxMagnet> RebelZero, that fixed it, thanks
[03:42] <stone1343> rictec 20091020.3, the possible RC
[03:42] <nordhri> cap,  yep
[03:42] <cap> Sp3c1alK: Just block their IP
[03:42] <Sp3c1alK> I did that
[03:43] <rictec> if it work you have a kernel that works for now
[03:43] <Sp3c1alK> but I thought it would be humerous to bounce it back
[03:43] <huwaw69> how do i find mscofig in wine?
[03:43] <nordhri> cap,  I've been using Ubuntu now for 5 years? I just never get under the hood if you know what I mean
[03:43]  * xrandr would definitely use ubuntu as a work computer if he owned his own business. His whole netwrok would be ubuntu based
[03:43] <zenlunatic> msconfig is a tool
[03:43] <rictec> copy it to your boot dir and use that kernel that works
[03:43] <zenlunatic> i mean i don't know why you would run it in wine
[03:43] <cap> huwaw69: man  find
[03:43] <LinuX2half> why when I boot up my graphic boot drop to text mode?
[03:43] <zenlunatic> part of windows... but im no expert
[03:43] <huwaw69> zenlunatic, i have to stop something
[03:44] <blah569> How could one achive a transparent 'top bar' similar to this?  http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=40498&d=1186942443  Just a static image with transparancy or would another method be more practical?
[03:44] <xrandr> So, what's the linux equivolent of Active Directory?
[03:44] <zenlunatic> huwaw69: be less vague
[03:44] <huwaw69> cap, what do you mean by cap find
[03:44] <cap> nordhri: I know... some of us think the hood is still weilded shut.
[03:44] <Sp3c1alK> pwd
[03:44] <zenlunatic> xrandr: probably LDAP
[03:44] <blah569> on gnome *
[03:44] <cap> huwaw69: man find  not cap find
[03:44] <LinuX2half> When I boot up, there's an ubuntu icon and it shows the loading process but now it'll switch to text mode....when the bar reached half way.....
[03:45] <xrandr> zenlunatic: LDAP coupled with NFS?
[03:45] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, what does hitting ctrl+alt+f7 do
[03:45] <cap> huwaw69: What are you trying to do? (What is your goal?)
[03:45] <zenlunatic> xrandr: possibly... check it out im not certain
[03:45] <nordhri> cap, not me.. I just tend to not need to go there .. and haven't really dedicated the time I feel needed to get in there and learn it.. a.k.a I've been lazy in that regard
[03:45] <LinuX2half> Boxmagnet: I've never tried it, but whats does it do anyway?
[03:45] <xrandr> zenlunatic: actually, i think it would NIS, NFS
[03:45] <zenlunatic> xrandr: i know nfs kicks butt we used to do kickstart installs like 5 times a night only takes like 4 minutes if that
[03:45] <Mobi> i have been searching for awhile now but to no avail. does anyone know how to remove msftres flag on a nfts partition without having to format it?
[03:45] <huwaw69> cap, nvm ill try to figure it out myself again, i can't explain it in english sorry
[03:45] <LinuX2half> Boxmagnet: does it have to do with UIID?
[03:46] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: UUID
[03:46] <DaZ> blah569: it's in the gnome panel menu :f
[03:46] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, no, UUID = unique identifier for hard drives.
[03:46] <blah569> DaZ:  Ah yes, but I meant, did the person probably use a staic image with transparency?
[03:46] <DaZ> and uses static image or true transparency depending on composite :f
[03:46]  * BoxMagnet finally got network shares to mount on boot using nfs
[03:47] <kakashi> hi guys can i get some help setting u a local repository server plz ?
[03:47] <DaZ> blah569: imo it's black with true transparency :f
[03:47] <LinuX2half> BoxMagnet: oh okay, but then does it have to do with the "resume image" process?
[03:47] <stone1343> rictec I think the end result is it's not gonna work until some hardware support is added?
[03:48] <rictec> stone1343, i have to check that chipset and if you have a working kernel use it
[03:48] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, I am not sure.
[03:48] <xrandr> zenlunatic: can u recommend a good eGroupware suite for linux?
[03:48] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, something like that could be from alot of reasons, sorry you need someone with more linux fu then I have
[03:49] <nevets04> a
[03:49] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, im usually in here asking questions, so I help people when I can :\
[03:50] <stone1343> rictec no working ubuntu on that computer, i'll have to use the "other" OS
[03:50] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: well thanks anyway
[03:50] <nevets04> What is the difference between #channel and ##channel?
[03:50] <lstarnes> nevets04: # is official, ## isn't
[03:50] <nevets04> lstarnes, Thanks.
[03:51] <lstarnes> nevets04: for example, #ubuntu is ubuntu's official channel, but ##windows is not the official channel of microsoft windows
[03:51] <rictec> stone i cant say that i can say is the last kernel broke something
[03:51] <rictec> stone1343, until someone finds out what it is you have to use a older kernel try 9.04
[03:52] <stone1343> rictec fair enough, thanks, i'll give 9.04 a try that'll be helpful to know if it works
[03:52] <LinuX2half> Well anyways, does anyone here knows why my boot splash suddenly turned to text mode when reached halfway....?
[03:52] <tred> anyone know how to start plasma decently in a headless jaunty?
[03:53] <DaZ> decently? ;f
[03:53] <stone1343> rictec: thanks very much for your help, I'm gonna go now
[03:53] <trism> LinuX2half: you mean it just shows the text boot log, such as services starting, etc?
[03:53] <LinuX2half> trism: yes
[03:53] <rictec> stone1343, np be well
[03:53] <tred> i can leave a bash window open and start it from there after i log in on vnc, but it doesnt start quite normally
[03:53] <trism> LinuX2half: no idea, same thing randomly happens to me
[03:53] <webbb82> i am triing to download a bunch of wallpaper at once doing this http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/10/linux-download-hundreds-of-wallpapers.html
[03:54] <LinuX2half> trism: well does it have to do with the resume image?
[03:54] <webbb82> but after doing all that all i see is a blinking cursor
[03:54] <heylala> My dist-upgrade from a fresh install of jaunty to karmic beta went wrong in a couple of ways. The most obvious problem is that there are some packages missing that won't install. apt / aptitude output here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m50f090f5      I realize I could reinstall but I'd rather the learning process of trying to fix it. Anyone mind walking me through?
[03:54] <trism> LinuX2half: dunno
[03:54] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: what have you done that could triggered it ? did you made any change in your partition table ?
[03:55] <zmoazeni> Hello everyone. I need a little advice on how to create and use custom debian packages to "compile on install". An example would be I have a package Apache2.2.3 and 2 PHP5 Packages (PHP5.3.0 and PHP5.2.11). If I wanted to configure a system with Apache2.2.3 and PHP5.3.0, I'd want to install 2 packages, and have the PHP5.3.0 compile on install (passing specific configure parameters) - would I use the postinst script? Or is there a
[03:55] <zmoazeni> I should be using instead?
[03:55] <LinuX2half> phil_fl: Not really, last time I messed up my partition when restoring my windows but then I restore linux back so...
[03:56] <zmoazeni> (The purpose is so I could have another Apache package say Apache2.3.5 and the PHP5.3.0 package would still install/compile against it)
[03:56] <LinuX2half> phil_fl: but I think that it happened when the ubuntu help menu is gone...but I'm not sure if its relevant....
[03:56] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: I have seen it when I play with my partition table and my UUID get messed up
[03:56] <heylala_> (another thing wrong is that gnome is acting terribly, so it just froze, did anyone respond / think they can help by any chance?)
[03:57] <LinuX2half> phil_fl: oh? Then this matter involve with UUID?
[03:57] <rictec> people its the end for me back latter
[03:57] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, why would it involve UUID?
[03:58] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: in my case yes you want me to guide to find out if you suffer with the same problem I did ?
[03:58] <BoxMagnet> you keep asking that, did you change /etc/fstab ?
[03:58] <zmoazeni> I thought I should be using the dsc, but that seemed like I would pass the configure parameters at install time
[03:58] <LinuX2half> phil_fl: alright
[03:58] <[t0rc]> I installed ubuntu server edition 9.04 and am now doing apt-get update but the downstream speed is UBER slow (its downloading in bytes). Any help?
[03:58] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: no idea but I done some research online....
[03:58] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, cat /etc/fstab
[03:58] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: when it happened to me I changed the swap so the UUID was not aligned anymore
[03:59] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, cat /etc/fstab in a pastebin
[03:59] <phil_fl> LinuX2half, BoxMagnet : yes same command cat /etc/fstab
[03:59] <cap> LinuX2half: Or:  pastebinit /etc/fstab
[03:59] <phil_fl> LinuX2half, BoxMagnet : and sudo blkid
[04:00] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, UUID=3379059e-918c-4285-b5ef-963c4cbf7164 / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1       --- what my boot drive looks like in /etc/fstab (the UUID is correct of course)
[04:00] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: here's mine, http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/m5d13519
[04:00] <progesterone> question: on Ubuntu Firefox, how do we load the page refreshing the cache? on Window version, I can do Ctrl+F5.
[04:00] <lstarnes> progesterone: shift+f5
[04:01] <trism> progesterone: ctrl+r
[04:01] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/d10cc180c
[04:01] <heylala_> Anyone with any advice by any chance?
[04:01] <myeyespy> anyone know how I can open a movie in a new Totem window so I can have 2 movies open at the same time?
[04:01] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, use this UUID=80f73154-5559-4603-866f-2282bc7456dc / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[04:01] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, that will work for ur /etc/fstab
[04:01] <progesterone> lstarnes Are you sure?
[04:01] <lstarnes> progesterone: yes
[04:02] <LinuX2half> box magnet: so I have to edit the file?
[04:02] <progesterone> trism Ctrl+r is for reload. It may not refresh the cache.
[04:02] <lstarnes> progesterone: it may be ctrl+shift+f5 or ctrl+f5
[04:02] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, sudo gedit /etc/fstab and replace ur  line with UUID=80f73154-5559-4603-866f-2282bc7456dc / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[04:03] <trism> progesterone: my mistake, ctrl+shift+r
[04:03] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, then save that file, exit gedit, and pastebin cat /etc/fstab again
[04:03] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: like this? http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/dcb1dea2
[04:03] <webbb82> i know chromium is available to linux but did google put out a official one    or is chromium the officail one
[04:03] <progesterone> trism lstarnes How can I test whether cache is refreshed or not?
[04:04] <nick__> where is sshd
[04:04] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, I am just telling you though, that UUID is not your problem.
[04:04] <lstarnes> progesterone: I'm not sure
[04:04] <DaZ> webbb82: chromium is official
[04:04] <nick__> !sshd
[04:04] <trism> progesterone: no idea, it always seems to refresh the cache when I just do ctrl+r so...
[04:04] <korin43> nick__: /etc/init.d/sshd
[04:04] <lstarnes> nick__: its init script is /etc/init.d/ssh
[04:04] <cap> nick__: sshd is a service
[04:04] <SeaPhor> nick__, in /etc/ssh/
[04:04] <webbb82> so chromium is the exact as chrome
[04:04] <progesterone> trism lstarnes Thanks
[04:05] <nick__> korin43, lstarnes cap SeaPhor it is not there
[04:05] <korin43> webbb82: Chromium doesn't auto-update, and I think it's also missing the chrome media codecs
[04:05] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: hm... then check this site if its correct.. http://welltemperedstudio.wordpress.com/2009/04/07/is-your-ubuntu-boot-splash-dropping-to-text-mode/
[04:05] <webbb82> so how do i install chrome
[04:05] <lstarnes> nick__: did you install the openssh-server package?
[04:06] <cap> nick__: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[04:06] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, are you on a live-cd now on that machine!?!/
[04:06] <SeaPhor> nick__, sshd.conf is in  /etc/ssh/
[04:06] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: No.
[04:06] <webbb82> the google web site says Google Chrome for Linux is in development* and a team of engineers is working hard to bring it to you as soon as possible.
[04:06] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok, then try this you still got /etc/fstab open !/
[04:06] <SeaPhor> nick__, if not there then install it
[04:06] <lstarnes> SeaPhor, nick__: the server config is actually /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[04:06] <myeyespy> anyone know how I can open a movie in a new Totem window so I can have 2 movies open at the same time?
[04:07] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, switch those 2 lines just the UUID part. followed by the numbers
[04:07] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: yes but I didn't save it yet
[04:07] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: IMHO yes this site is very correct last thing you need to check is the cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and check if it matchs the swap UUID
[04:07] <SnakDoc> webbb82 you can get it there are install for it
[04:07] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, switch those 2 lines just the UUID part.
[04:07] <SeaPhor> lstarnes, that is true
[04:07]  * xrandr would love to have google chrome for linux :)
[04:07] <webbb82> not from the chrome web site
[04:07] <BoxMagnet> xrandr, i have been looking for it
[04:07] <BoxMagnet> cant find it
[04:08] <Cyrano_De> I have a couple of friends beta testing chrome right now.
[04:08] <SnakDoc> its not direct from them
[04:08] <Magnesium_> webbb82: Here's the difference...Chromium is an open source project that is trying to (and IMHO has succedded in) develop a great web browser. Chrome is the official browser, from Google, *based* on chromium
[04:08] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, you know what im asking you to do correct?
[04:08] <ZykoticK9> xrandr, see link for daily build ppa http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-chromium-google-chrome-in-ubuntu-using-deb-package.html
[04:08] <TBird> i <3 chrome on windows, at least
[04:08] <webbb82> is chrome in the repo
[04:08] <Magnesium_> webbb82: And Google sponsors chromium...so they are related, but not identical
[04:08] <lstarnes> webbb82: not the official ones
[04:09] <lstarnes> webbb82: google has their own apt repo for it
[04:09] <Magnesium_> webbb82: Go here: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[04:09] <webbb82> where do i get the officail then
[04:09] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: yes, just switch the numbers of the UUID, http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/d52d3b3e3
[04:09] <webbb82> i already got chromium
[04:09] <SnakDoc> webbb82 its not been offically released but http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-chromium-google-chrome-in-ubuntu-using-deb-package.html thank that suppose to be very close
[04:10] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok, try to boot that machine then
[04:10] <Magnesium_> webbb82: There you can download a binary package for ubuntu, which you can install...it will also add Google's Chrome Repo to your sources.list, so it will automatically be updated.
[04:10] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: oh okay, so I need to save first and reboot to see if anything changes correct..?
[04:10] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, yes
[04:11] <kpkeller> hello.  i'd like to update to the latest gnome version.  i'm running jaunty jackalope.  how might i go about doing this?
[04:11] <Magnesium_> webbb82: The Chrome build is technically a "Dev Build," but I'm using it currently, and it is quite stable. I would recommend using that instead of trying to compile chromium from source.
[04:11] <BoxMagnet> !upgrade kpkeller
[04:11] <BoxMagnet> ..
[04:11] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: well okay, so I'll come back to see if anything changes
[04:11] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, let me know if it works please, so I can help the next person :-D
[04:11] <angelus> !upgrade | kpkeller
[04:11] <BoxMagnet> thanks angelus
[04:12] <Magnesium_> TBird: Then you'll love chrome on Linux too...
[04:12] <LinuX2half> Boxmagnet: sure I'll be back :)
[04:12] <kpkeller> thanks very much.
[04:12] <webbb82> Magnesium_, but where do i find tthe dev build
[04:12] <andresj> is ubuntu supposed to forward packats between two netowkr interfaces if the firewall is disabled?
[04:12] <xrandr> ZykoticK9: installing :)
[04:13] <BoxMagnet> UUID is awesome.
[04:13] <lstarnes> andresj: it doesn't need a firewall for that
[04:13] <kpkeller> i'm already on 9.04 of ubuntu, but i see on gnome's website that there is a more recent version of the UI.  should I just download it from there and install it?
[04:13] <Magnesium_> webbb82: The dev build is the only build of chrome for linux from google at the moment...like I said, download the deb package from http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[04:13] <lstarnes> andresj: that uses the kernel's routing table
[04:13] <mayki> anyone here familiar with foremost or scalpel?
[04:13] <ejv> UUID is tempremental as hell
[04:13] <Magnesium_> webbb82: This will also add the Google Chrome repo to your sources, so it gets updated with apt
[04:13] <BoxMagnet> ejv, really? in what way just curious.
[04:14] <webbb82> oh ok than you
[04:14] <BoxMagnet> ejv, mine seems to work better than using /dev/sd* which changes.
[04:14] <Magnesium_> webbb82: No problem
[04:14] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: Well sadly it doesn't seem to work....:(
[04:15] <ejv> in large environments i have found uuid to be worse for persistent naming
[04:15] <roffe> How do I install Nvidia drivers on XP in virtualbox?
[04:15] <phil_fl> LinuX2half: last thing you need to check is the cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and check if it matchs the swap UUID
[04:15] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, you forgot part of your /etc/fstab
[04:15] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, hehe open it real quick sorry.
[04:15] <ejv> roffe: /j #virtualbox
[04:15] <leaf-sheep> roffe: I'm guessing you don't because VirtualBox use generic video drivers.  Join #virtualbox
[04:16] <ZykoticK9> roffe, if you are using VBox and have XP as a VM you don't install Nvidia -- install the Guest Additions to get 3D support
[04:16] <roffe> Ok, thanks!
[04:16] <crohakon> I must say... I love linux so far. I just wish microsoft office 2007 worked on it. I need it for work, only reason I keep vista around.
[04:16] <ejv> openoffice?
[04:16] <leaf-sheep> crohakon: Use VirtualBox
[04:16] <pfifo> openoffice
[04:16] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/m6b44bed2
[04:16] <leaf-sheep> crohakon: Change your job. :)
[04:16] <crohakon> openoffice is nice, but it does not compare with the features, sadly. And it murders xdoc files.
[04:17] <Magnesium> crohakon: or use wine...office 2007 works very well on wine.
[04:17] <mayki> !patience
[04:17] <pfifo> google docs?
[04:17] <crohakon> How does wine work? Do I need to install windows via wine or something?
[04:17] <Magnesium> !wine | crohakon
[04:17] <crohakon> google docs also kills xdoc files
[04:17] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, actually hold on, so you dont have to reboot again ( hopefully )
[04:17] <meanieface> crohakon: might want to check out crossover chromium
[04:17] <pfifo> google docs is my #1 resource for word documents
[04:18] <crohakon> So, I would not have to install windows with wine? I just install windows software via wine?
[04:18] <leaf-sheep> crohakon: Right.
[04:18] <srshkrsh> when i tried to copy a 700mb file from one one hard disk partition to another, i noticed the copying speed was dropping. what could be the problem?
[04:18] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: okay, here http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/d61bca743, see if it's the same
[04:18] <crohakon> meanieface; what is crossover chromium
[04:18] <webbb82> what would the command be to uninstall chromium and install chrome
[04:18] <pfifo> crohakon, i have an icon on muy desktop for winamp, i click on it and it runs exactly the same as in windows
[04:19] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, yea just put the / not the swap on top
[04:19] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, hold on i got another idea too
[04:19] <UseLinux> hi?
[04:19] <xrandr> ZykoticK9: works nicely :)
[04:19] <Magnesium> crohakon: Right...think of wine as an open source implementation of the windows API's. You can install and run windows apps using the wine engine, and it translates between the windows language (used by your program) and the linux language.
[04:20] <UseLinux> This is UseLinux. Does anybody read?
[04:20] <meanieface> crohakon: http://www.codeweavers.com/about/general/press/
[04:20] <Magnesium> !microsoft office
[04:20] <cap>   UseLinux Well, if they don't read, they don't have any busniess here.
[04:20] <FFForever2> anyone know how to turn an avi to dvd?
[04:20] <EvaJoycelynn> hiie
[04:20] <UseLinux> oh ha ha.
[04:21] <FFForever2> did i say something funny?
[04:21] <UseLinux> FFForever2 is funny.
[04:21] <scunizi> FFForever2: http://handbreak.fr
[04:21] <ZykoticK9> FFForever2, gui app devede (in repo)
[04:21] <crohakon> damn, if msoffice2007 install via wine I got another 350gb hd to play with on this laptop. =)
[04:21] <phil_fl> !hi | UseLinux
[04:21] <UseLinux> Yes! (I have a good sense of humor)
[04:21] <Magnesium> FFForever2: No, joke (?) from before you got here
[04:21] <FFForever2> uselinux, why am i funny?
[04:21] <UseLinux> idk
[04:21] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/m477a2920
[04:22] <UseLinux> i must leave now
[04:22] <scunizi> crohakon: don't count on it.. however :).... you can run windows in virtualbox from inside of ubuntu for those "must have" apps..
[04:22] <FFForever2> bye
[04:22] <cap> !info devede
[04:22] <kakashi> hi guys, can i get some help downloading a full repository ?
[04:22] <FFForever2> ZykoticK9, will i run into sound issues?, this is going to be a wedding dvd
[04:22] <andresj> lstarnes: should I set a bridge interface? because it doesn't seem to be working with the firewall disabled (or enabled :P)
[04:22] <EvaJoycelynn> hii kakashi
[04:22] <kakashi> hi EvaJoycelynn
[04:22] <roffe> crohakon, just be prepared to know that Wine runs some software badly, or not at all. Other than that it's great
[04:22] <FFForever2> would be insulting if the brides voice didn't match up
[04:23] <ZykoticK9> FFForever2, ? don't know what problems you might have.  I got sound in my DVDs.
[04:23] <howitzer`> Approx when today is the RC out?
[04:23] <Magnesium> FFForever2: haha, her mouth moves when he says the vows, and vice versa :P
[04:23] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: okay I've switch them back....
[04:23] <Boogerslinger_> can anyone help me copy a file to external hdd
[04:23] <meanieface> crohakon: here is a thread that shows you how to install office via wine http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1173365&highlight=microsoft
[04:23] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok pastebin it one more time
[04:23] <cap> ! apt-mirror
[04:23] <kakashi> EvaJoycelynn i been using apt-mirror, but i think is not working
[04:23] <FFForever2> Magnesium, moves yes... same word... doubt it... last time i tried this it didn't work out 2 well lol
[04:24] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: cp /path/to/file/<file> /media/<name of device like sdc1
[04:24] <EvaJoycelynn> hmmm how come kakashi
[04:24] <EvaJoycelynn> any notice came out?
[04:24] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/d4fb192b7
[04:24] <ZykoticK9> crohakon, don't delete windows just yet -- Word gets a Silver rating on winehq.org http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=10

[04:25] <cap> !info apt-mirror
[04:25] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi i dont get all the commands yet
[04:25] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, is the one ending in c, or a ur / drive. I believe it is a
[04:25] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: do you know windows dos commands?
[04:26] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi no
[04:26] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi well kinda
[04:26] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi but have only had ubuntu for like two days
[04:26] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: yes /dev/sr0 is a optical drive
[04:26] <Magnesium> scunizi: try #windows
[04:27] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: well.. you learn one at a time.. cp is copy .. then the next statement is where the file is located followed by the location you want to put it.. /media is a directory where your drives etc are typically mounted..
[04:27] <scunizi> Magnesium: I'm not giving windows help.. why go to #windows
[04:27] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok,. hold 1 sec
[04:28] <nazojan> hi all
[04:28] <mtx1> I am running ubuntu 9.04 and have 2 pcs with gigabit cards and a gigabit switch. I am running cat5e cable and for some reason i only can connect at 10Mb/s with both my 9.04 linux boxes anyone know what the problem could be? I have searched google for hrs and still have the same problem
[04:28] <kakashi> the problem is that apt-mirror only tells that is downloading 80 index files in 20 threads but no download size info or something
[04:28] <Magnesium> scunizi: Oh sorry...didn't see the conversation close enough...I thought you wanted to know dos commands...pardon me.
[04:29] <dshepherd> hey, I want to create a movie: slideshow of pictures with audio in the background. what app can i use?
[04:29] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: this is a good adventure.. you'll find by learning your system the linux way and not expecting it to behave like windows.. it will give you a much better understanding on how your machine work.. and it's fun!
[04:29] <BoxMagnet> ok LinuX2half http://www.ubuntu.pastebin.com/mea0ffb8
[04:29] <scunizi> Magnesium: no problem :)
[04:29] <snowball> sup?
[04:29] <GBGames> Does anyone have any experience getting Ekiga to work? As far as I know, the configuration should be fine (using STUN since the Ekiga wiki says I should), but I can't seem to connect to the echo test.
[04:29] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, if it does not work, switch just the UUID one more time. if not im stumpted
[04:29] <nazojan> I am new to ubuntu I recently installed it I have a sound problem can any one help me?
[04:29] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, try this before you go.
[04:30] <cap> !audio
[04:30] <BoxMagnet> sudo update-initramfs -u
[04:30] <ZykoticK9> dshepherd, i haven't used it but "Smile" available from getdeb.net - seems to fit the bill.  Good luck.
[04:30] <nazojan> the sound is very very low hardly you can hear it and my sound card is SoundMax Audio Driver
[04:30] <dshepherd> ZykoticK9: thanks
[04:30] <scunizi> GBGames: does it actually connect but you just can't hear anything?
[04:30] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: hm, okay so I'll copy everything to the file?
[04:30] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi yeah i just need to learn it LOL
[04:31] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, then run, sudo update-initramfs -u
[04:31] <snowball> nazojan: right click on the sound icon and make sure the output is all the way up
[04:31] <nazojan> yes it is I did
[04:31] <CaptainMorgan> got multiple tabs within a terminal window open... every time I go to close it, it asks me for confirmation - how do I remove that confirmation message?
[04:31] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: it seemed that the line proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 isn't originally in the file...
[04:31] <GBGames> scunizi: I finally found the General History which tells me that it says "Remote user is unreachable"
[04:31] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, it should be
[04:31] <dshepherd> ZykoticK9: its not available for hardy.... *sigh*
[04:31] <CaptainMorgan> is it in gconf-editor ?
[04:31] <cap> nazojan: Turn up Master and/or PCM
[04:31] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: sometimes it's a large learning curve but the best approach (for me anyway) is to learn what you need first then experiment..
[04:31]  * dshepherd grumbles about compiling
[04:31] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi if i want to copy file from my videos to my external could you give me a example
[04:32] <ZykoticK9> dshepherd, sorry man, lead you astray did I -- ?
[04:32] <scunizi> GBGames: If there is a place to put in an address for a stun server you can try stun.ekiga.net
[04:32]  * howitzer` compiles about.grumbling
[04:32] <dshepherd> ZykoticK9: its ok. thanks anyways
[04:32] <nazojan> yes it is
[04:32] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: well.. with gui or commandline?
[04:32] <nazojan> thanks for all in advance help
[04:32] <GBGames> scunizi: Yep, it's already in there.
[04:33] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, did you run sudo update-initramfs -u’
[04:33] <LinuX2half> boxmagnet: yes it finished updating
[04:33] <CaptainMorgan> nevermind, it is in gconf-editor... wasn't orginally sure it would be that easy to find
[04:33] <GBGames> I wonder if the router needs to be forward ports, even though the wiki says I shouldn't need to do anything more.
[04:33] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok reboot
[04:33] <pfifo> b0xxy?
[04:33] <b0xxy> hi my name is boxxy
[04:33] <LinuX2half> BoxMagnet: alright then I'll be back...
[04:33] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi see im not sure what you just asked me ;)
[04:33] <pfifo> not here too *facepalm*
[04:33] <BoxMagnet> GBGames, is it on ur local network?
[04:33] <scunizi> GBGames: then erase it and save.. try to connect without it.... with a stun server you shouldn't need port forwarding.. you could also use stun01.sipphone.com  that's what stun.ekiga.net points to.
[04:34] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi too used to windows
[04:34] <GBGames> BoxMagnet: Is what on my local network?
[04:34] <perlsyntax> when is ubuntu 9.10 come out on the oct 22?
[04:34] <BoxMagnet> GBGames, are the 2 machines on your local network?
[04:34] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: do you want to do the copy using the desktop file manager or type commands into a black box?
[04:34] <GBGames> scunizi: Ok, I'll try it.
[04:34] <roffe> perlsyntax, it's on the 29 th
[04:34] <perlsyntax> what going on the oct 22 i looked up
[04:34] <perlsyntax> on it
[04:34] <scunizi> GBGames: try it both ways.. without the server listed and with the other one.,
[04:35] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi see i tried to drag and drop and it gave me an error
[04:35] <roffe> perlsyntax, windows 7 is released today
[04:35] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: what did it say?
[04:35] <howitzer`> When, approximately, is the RC out today?
[04:35] <GBGames> BoxMagnet: 2 machines? I'm trying to use the Ekiga server's echo service.
[04:35] <scunizi> roffe: oh boy....
[04:35] <leaf-sheep> howitzer`: Today.
[04:35] <howitzer`> leaf-sheep: Really?
[04:35] <dsnyders> Hi all!  What's chipcardd4?

[04:36] <snowball> !chipcard4
[04:36] <roffe> scunizi, well there's a more important release a little later :)
[04:36] <dsnyders> !chipcardd4
[04:36] <scunizi> roffe: that's what I was thinking :)
[04:36] <LinuX2half> Boxmagnet: well it seemed that it doesn't work.....
[04:36] <perlsyntax> i talking about the releaseCandidate on the oct 22?
[04:37] <GBGames> scunizi: Ok, neither one worked. I'm going to follow BoxMagnet's suggestion and forward the ports anyway.
[04:37] <snowball> !karmic
[04:37] <LinuX2half> BoxMagnet: but the bars are getting longer
[04:37] <perlsyntax> roffe
[04:37] <Delryk> hey guys im back. you helped lots last time. i have another question now. this is the question im trying to solve: 7.List all the lines in the “f3.txt” file that contain words with a character ‘b’ not followed by a character ‘e’. so far i have:    grep --colour '\<[^a-z]*[b][^e]*\>' f3.txt the only thing is that f3.txt has a line that is "the brown fox", which is found. and another line "problem" which is
[04:37] <Delryk> nt found. why cant it find the word problem ?
[04:37] <dsnyders> !chipcardd4
[04:37] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: /media/disk may be the usb drive.. if that's the case there is a permissions problem accessing it.. can you copy another smaller file to the drive? anything?
[04:37] <scunizi> GBGames: k
[04:37] <perlsyntax> ?
[04:37] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, ok, try swapping the UUID portions again then, do the update command sudo update-initramfs -u’
[04:38] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, reboot, and if it does not work I am sorry thats what that website says to do.
[04:38] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi just tried this Error opening file '/media/disk/07  Pink - Funhouse.mp3': Permission denied
[04:38] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi just a song
[04:39] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: make a copy then rename the copy using a name with no spaces in it..replace spaces with an underline character "_"
[04:39] <BoxMagnet> LinuX2half, edit /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and pastebin what that line says
[04:39] <leaf-sheep> Boogerslinger_: The lazy solution would be to include a sudo in your command. :3  The approach solution would be to chown your /media/disk
[04:39] <crohakon> So, question. If I have vista install on another hard drive on my laptop, is there a way to load it from within linux?
[04:40] <sugarmagnolia> when i insert a video dvd, the default app that is launched is totem.  How can I change this to launch vlc instead?  I have looked high and low for some option someplace... ubuntu 8.04
[04:40] <Cyrano_De> Anyone have a link that talks about running games like Nexuiz with Dual screens?
[04:40] <cap> !info vbox
[04:40] <leaf-sheep> crohakon: Sure. You would mount the hard drive and give it path. (eg /media/vista-hdd) or something. ;o
[04:40] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: leaf-sheep is right.. go to applications>accessories>terminal
[04:40] <Cyrano_De> !info virtualbox
[04:41] <crohakon> lol
[04:41] <Cyrano_De> !info kvm

[04:41] <scunizi> GBGames: wierd...
[04:41] <crohakon> So I can use virtual box to boot the current install of vista I have?
[04:41] <Delryk> hey guys i need some help understanding terminal grep. is there anyone here who can help me ?
[04:41] <scunizi> Boogerslinger_: got terminal open?
[04:41] <joeb3_> sugarmagnolia, system prefs preferred apps
[04:41] <Boogerslinger_> scunizi yes
[04:41] <sugarmagnolia> that doesn't appear to work, joeb3_
[04:41] <scunizi> crohakon: yes.. get virtual box from their site..
[04:42] <leaf-sheep> Boogerslinger_: How do you know where everything goes in Vista when it came out?  You learn them over a period of time. :)
[04:42] <sugarmagnolia> i've added vlc as a custom app, but no luck
[04:42] <nanotube> Delryk: still working on that same problem?
[04:42] <Delryk> this is a different one nano
