[09:26] <ddvlad> hi, i have a problem with vmware modules on oneiric; i can't find a linux-headers-* to match my kernel and vmware refuses to use a different set of headers (which is a sensible choice, i guess)
[09:27] <Driiper> Hello! Do anyone know how to activate mod_proxy via bash in UBUNTU 11.10
[09:28] <ikonia> Driiper: as in the apache module ?
[09:28] <Driiper> yeh
[09:28] <widewake> Having an issue with webcam studio for linux, its a third party webcam program. My output video is constantly blinking, cant seem to fix.
[09:28] <Driiper> i tried the normal apt-get, but it doesnt seem to work as Proxy Pass stil doesnt work
[09:28] <ikonia> Driiper: a2enmod
[09:28] <localg0d> just curious , but does anyone here know where to change the treble and bass on the soundcard's output in ubuntu ?
[09:28] <deej1976> ddvlad: have you install linux-libc-dev
[09:28] <ikonia> Driiper: you need to enable the module after it's installed
[09:30] <deej1976> ddvlad: also possible: linux-headers-generic

[09:30] <Driiper> ikonia: Success, Thank you ;)
[09:30] <katsrc> Firefox 8 should be updated without any additional PPA repos needed right?
[09:31] <chenbing`> is there any advanced package management binaries ,I only installed xfce
[09:31] <deej1976> chenbing: xubuntu-desktop, gets all the parts for xfce on ubuntu
[09:33] <chenbing`> I dont want to kill xfce4 ,I appeciate its concise
[09:33] <olewolf> Hi. My girlfriend is running Ubuntu (with the Unity desktop). An application seems to be running somewhere in the background so she can't start it from the Alt-F2 menu. I can easily find and kill the application from the terminal, but she prefers the desktop GUI. Which kind of "Task Manager" is there in Ubuntu, if any?
[09:33] <localg0d> just curious , but does anyone here know where to change the treble and bass on the soundcard's output in ubuntu ?
[09:34] <localg0d> olewolf: click the app finder and type " login " put in your password and then change to ubuntu classic login and from there you can put a system monitor on the taskbar and click it and bring up the task manager easier ;)
[09:34] <Mendru> HelloI have a question. I have removed 2 programms from my system, but the menu entry is still there. How to regenerate the lxdemenu?
[09:35] <RaTTuS|BIG> right click - remove from bar
[09:35] <olewolf> localg0d: I could go with Fedora, too. That is, I know I can change to non-unity, but that's not an option.
[09:36] <localg0d> hmm .. well ... i think ubuntu is better than any penguin or red/hatted community operating system ... those which have gone commercial only to turn their back on their greatest asset aka the community itself ;)
[09:36] <m3kk> Hello mates
[09:36] <ikonia> localg0d: please stop talking nonsense.
[09:37] <localg0d> lol @ ikonia .. ok .. a little tired so i'll shut the spout off ..
[09:38] <m3kk> im having issues running ubuntu on my PC, it runs slow like im running it in a virtual enveiorment, something must be up! im running with a i7 870 or 920 cant remember and double gtx 460 SLI having windows 7 on a ssd disk and ubuntu on a seperate partition on another disk. IS there more information you want?
[09:38] <ikonia> m3kk: define "having issues"
[09:38] <m3kk> Starting something from "places" could really take long time etc, old vista ran better lol :S i expect ubuntu to run circles around my win7 installation
[09:39] <Driiper> why cant everything just work :D [warn] proxy: No protocol handler was valid for the URL /webmin/. If you are using a DSO version of mod_proxy, make sure the proxy submodules are included in the configuration using LoadModule. My dear ubuntu aint in the working mood today
[09:39] <m3kk> ikonia, i think i did..::S
[09:39] <ikonia> Driiper: webmin is not supported.
[09:39] <m3kk> ikonia, you didnt read the rest of my message?:S
[09:39] <ikonia> m3kk: when you say starting something from places, do you mean on the virutal guest, or the host ?
[09:40] <m3kk> ikonia, oh no, im not running virtual. im mean open a folder from the menu "places"
[09:40] <Driiper> ikonia: is there any other way of doing this then? i need it to go via port 80 because my school likes to block everything
[09:40] <m3kk> ikonia, as an example of the slugginesh, that could take a minute to bring "pictures" open.. alldou the folder is empty anyway..
[09:40] <ikonia> m3kk: ok, I suspect what you are seeing is "visual" lag, rather than actual poor performance
[09:41] <m3kk> ikonia,  the programs and folders isnt opening until a minute later or something
[09:41] <ikonia> m3kk: this is normally caused by your graphics cards not been configured/working correctly
[09:41] <m3kk> webbbrowsing is sluggish like old magic phone with android
[09:42] <ikonia> m3kk: please listen to what I'm telling you
[09:42] <m3kk> ikonia, ah.. i see
[09:42] <ikonia> m3kk: you said you had nvidia cards in the machine ?
[09:42] <antnash> Hi guys. I've got a problem with an fstab mounted partition. Some directories in it are giving me permission denied when I try to cd into them
[09:42] <m3kk> ikonia, yes! two of them!
[09:42] <ikonia> antnash: look at the permissions on them
[09:42] <ikonia> m3kk: have you enabled the nvidia hardware drier module ?
[09:43] <m3kk> ikonia, yes i have enabled that restriction driver..
[09:43] <antnash> ikonia, I have. Shouldn't 666 give me rw access?
[09:43] <m3kk> ikonia, if that is what you meant..
[09:43] <ikonia> m3kk: do you have a files called /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:43] <ikonia> antnash: sounds good
[09:43] <ikonia> antnash: can you show me the output of ls -la $directory in a pastebin please.
[09:43] <m3kk> i should have, im not running inside ubuntu right now
[09:43] <ikonia> m3kk: I need to know if you do or not
[09:44] <deej1976> antnash: Directory should be 700 at least
[09:44] <mmh_> hi. can anyone recommend a notebook manufacturer where things usually just work with ubuntu?
[09:44] <jianchen> Hi, guys, i've a probelm with can't find eth0 in ubuntu 10.04.
[09:44] <deej1976> mmh_: system76
[09:44] <m3kk> ikonia, i will come back here later when im inside ubuntu. thank you so much for your help.. now i know where to focus my problemsolving =)
[09:44] <ikonia> !hcl | mmh_
[09:44] <jianchen> thx
[09:44] <reisio> mmh_: http://linux-laptop.net/ http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/
[09:45] <antnash> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/740032/
[09:45] <m3kk> has anyone tried Elementary OS Jupiter? based on ubuntu?
[09:45] <deej1976> antnash: chmod 777 /var/www
[09:45] <reisio> m3kk: I'm sure someone has, or why would it exist
[09:45] <ikonia> m3kk: nothing to do with this channel
[09:46] <m3kk> Okok im sorry just chattin. bye
[09:46] <antnash> deej1976: But shouldn't 666 give everyone rw access?
[09:46] <olewolf> jianchen: how many network cards do you have (I'm assuming just one)?
[09:46] <ikonia> antnash: which direcotry is casuing you the problem
[09:46] <jianchen> just one
[09:46] <deej1976> antnash: Read/Write but directories need executable bit as well
[09:46] <antnash> ikonia: it's var
[09:46] <jianchen> olewolf: just one
[09:46] <antnash> oh right. Fair enough
[09:46] <ikonia> antnash: which one are you getting permissions denied
[09:47] <olewolf> jianchen: have you tried to list "ifconfig" in a terminal? It could be the network card is simply named "eth1" or so.
[09:47] <deej1976> antnash: Your permissions are a little messed up
[09:47] <jianchen> olewolf: ifconfig list only lo
[09:47] <olewolf> Oh.
[09:47] <antnash> ikonia: var, and all subdirs.
[09:48] <antnash> deej1976: Should everything really have x permissions?
[09:48] <deej1976> antnash: only directories
[09:48] <antnash> ok, ta
[09:48] <deej1976> antnash: would chmod 700 /var
[09:49] <antnash> ok, thanks deej1975
[09:50] <eshlox> how to manage upstart services? i know how start and stop but maybe is a tool to add/remove from startup?
[09:50] <m3kk> ikonia: ok im in ubuntu now
[09:51] <RaTTuS|BIG> eshlox - change the permissions in /etc/init.d
[09:51] <m3kk> ikonia: where is the file you where talking about xorg.conf?
[09:51] <m3kk> found it
[09:51] <ikonia> m3kk: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:51] <deej1976> antnash: Then for directories: find /var/www -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
[09:51] <eshlox> RaTTuS|BIG: init.d? not init?
[09:51] <deej1976> antnash: Then for files: find /var/www -type f -exec chmod 666 {} \;
[09:51] <ikonia> antnash: I would not advise that
[09:51] <jianchen> olewolf: my pc is ThinkCentre M8300t,  i think ubuntu 10.04 can't support ntel G840 2.8ghz
[09:52] <m3kk> ikonia: yeah thanks i found it, should i paste whats inside?
[09:52] <ikonia> antnash: changing all directories to 7777 is a security risk
[09:52] <ikonia> m3kk: no
[09:52] <antnash> I'll change them all to 700
[09:52] <ikonia> m3kk: look for a line inside it that says "Driver nvidia"
[09:52] <antnash> or 770
[09:52] <m3kk> ikonia: it has none,
[09:52] <m3kk> ikonia: yes it has im sorry
[09:52] <olewolf> jianchen: does "dmesg" list anything about an eth interface?
[09:52] <Barbarian> antnash, If I know my permissions, that means everyone can read, everyone can write, no-one can execute?
[09:53] <ikonia> m3kk: ok, so that should be using the nvidia module, so it narrows it down to a.) if those cards are supported with the module b.) SLI is causing a problem (it used to)
[09:53] <antnash> Morning Barbarian. The 666? yeah, I think so
[09:53] <Barbarian> antnash, morning :D
[09:53] <deej1976> ikonia: I would agree as well :D, but very easy for someone that just wants to develop, not that I know their intent.
[09:54] <m3kk> ikonia: ok!
[09:54] <antnash> Barbarian: Another long day of helping people out?
[09:54] <m3kk> ikonia: would a update to some non-stable release of drivers possible help?
[09:55] <olewolf> jianchen: it could be that 10.04 doesn't support that network card. Someone seems to have made a work-around here: http://www.restricted.co.za/?p=152
[09:55] <Barbarian> antnash, nah, just thought I'd lurk a bit before heading off. Got a presentation to do about BI >.<
[09:55] <jianchen> olewolf : ok
[09:55] <antnash> BI?
[09:55] <Barbarian> antnash, business intelligence systems
[09:55] <antnash> O.O
[09:55] <ikonia> m3kk: no
[09:55] <m3kk> ikonia: ok
[09:55] <RaTTuS|BIG> eshlox - yeah init
[09:55] <ubuntu_> sounds geeky and complex
[09:56] <ikonia> m3kk: randomly updating things with no reason is bad, doing so to unstable components is worse
[09:56] <m3kk> ikonia: affirmative
[09:56] <Barbarian> ubuntu_, Less so than you might imagine. It's basically putting random unrelated info into charts/graphs/stuff
[09:56] <Barbarian> ubuntu_, Business types always gotta have the fancy names though
[09:56] <ubuntu_> hehe
[09:56] <eshlox> RaTTuS|BIG: isnt better idea? it doesnt make sense ;-/
[09:57] <m3kk> ikonia: you might have been right about visibile lag, when i set my "effects" in themes to EXTRA so you get all wobbleness to windows, the system seems to run ALOT faster..
[09:57] <ikonia> m3kk: the symptoms you describe against the hardware you list would suggest visual lag
[09:58] <ikonia> m3kk: type lsmod | grep -i nvidia , do you get any output
[09:58] <scarleo> Hi, I can't launch gufw (FW config gui) from dash, it also has no real icon. Launching it from Terminal works fine. Tried reinstalling. Does anyone have any tips on what to try?
[09:58] <m3kk> ill try
[09:58] <Barbarian> General question. How would you pitch ubuntu to someone who thinks linux OSes are crazy complex?
[09:58] <m3kk> ikonia: nvidia 10221046 70
[09:59] <scarleo> Barbarian: Depends on what they need to do. Let them try first hand if it's only abt surfing the web they will find it's easy :)
[09:59] <ikonia> m3kk: so that suggests the module is being used, which takes us back to a. and b.
[09:59] <Barbarian> scarleo, Fair enough. Basically, it consists of libreoffice, chrome, and a custom database which I think I can get working on wine. I'll see if the OS can speak for itself :P
[09:59] <m3kk> ikonia: ok
[09:59] <Rods_Tiger> Barbarian: let them ask a question on freenode. Oh wait, on second thoughts, that's the last thing you want them to do.
[10:00] <Barbarian> Rods_Tiger, :D
[10:01] <DJones> Barbarian: Is a quick private message ok?
[10:01] <m3kk> ikonia: i think i have an idea...
[10:02] <Driiper> Do anyone have any suggestions on how to run Webmin via say Apache2? i tried the proxy way, but that didnt seem to work. The university i'm studying on is blocking all ports except port 80.
[10:02] <m3kk> ikonia: i have the same syndrome as im in a game without vsync on, i see screentearing etc and its feeling really laggy. So maybe its my monitor?
[10:02] <ikonia> !webmin | Driiper
[10:02] <ikonia> m3kk: no,
[10:03] <Driiper> ikonia: Is there any free web interface which is supported by Ubuntu/Debian these days?
[10:03] <ikonia> not sure on the current satus of ebox
[10:03] <m3kk> ikonia: what is "sync to vblank" in nvidia settings?
[10:04] <ikonia> m3kk: no idea, don't have the option list infront of me
[10:04] <m3kk> ikonia: thanks for trying to help
[10:04] <RaTTuS|BIG> m3kk - force the refesh to be the same as the screen
[10:05] <m3kk> RaTTuS|BIG: thank you, i think that would solve some of the tearing? :P
[10:05] <RaTTuS|BIG> yes
[10:05]  * jiltdil Why windows Suck?
[10:05] <ikonia> m3kk: you are ignoring the root cause
[10:05] <Driiper> ikonia: ill try it out. Thanks
[10:05] <ikonia> jiltdil: nothing to do with this channel - please don't troll
[10:06] <m3kk> ikonia: okey
[10:06] <Rods_Tiger> it's the air pressure differential - when you open a window in the house and there's already a door open, the air rushes out.
[10:06] <jiltdil> ikonia ok cool
[10:06] <ikonia> Rods_Tiger: please don't feed sillyness
[10:06] <jiltdil> Rods_Tiger, Good one +1
[10:08] <m3kk> ikonia:  can i do some test to see if the cards is running fine? should i install a game? glxgears etc?
[10:08] <ikonia> !nvidia | m3kk
[10:08] <m3kk> ikonia: ty
[10:08] <Kim4x> Hi
[10:09] <JWillians> Hi Kim4x!
[10:11] <m3kk> RaTTuS|BIG: i have enabled sync to vblank but when i move windows around there is still very visible screentearing. when i run glxgears its actually showing i have 60fps
[10:11] <ikonia> m3kk: I've told you the problem
[10:11] <m3kk> ikonia: what is my problem ?:S im sorry if i missed it im cooking dinner at the same time
[10:12] <ikonia> m3kk: the card is either not supported by the nvidia propitary modules or the SLI is causing a problem,
[10:13] <RaTTuS|BIG> m3kk - ikonia has it right - probably sli - my bet - try it with sli switched off and see what happens
[10:13] <m3kk> RaTTuS|BIG: cant find SLI button in the settings for nvidia
[10:14] <ikonia> it's not a software setting
[10:14] <hacker> hey how r u?
[10:15] <SURFkees> I've recently upgraded from 10.08 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 and now both Unity and Gnome3 are not working at all for me. When I start them, it logs me in normally, but none of the desktop buttons, icons, menu's are responsive.
[10:15] <Guest36164> bomber 45
[10:15] <SURFkees> Any idea where to start looking?
[10:15] <recentlydeceased> is there any way to stop the activities dash in gnome-shell from opening when triggering the top-left of the screen?
[10:15] <m3kk> ikonia: i dont belive there is an off switch for SLI in ubuntu
[10:15] <ikonia> m3kk: I've just told you there is no software button - it's not a software setting
[10:17] <m3kk> ikonia: it should be easy to just disable one card via software wouldnt you agree?
[10:17] <haylo_> SURFkees, 10.08 where did you download that?
[10:17] <ikonia> m3kk: no, as it's not a software technology
[10:17] <RaTTuS|BIG> m3kk - do you have 2 cards that you have sli'ed or are they sli'ed onboard. - are you running 2 monitors ?
[10:17] <SURFkees> or 10.10, whatever was the last version in 2010
[10:18] <m3kk> ikonia: no but, nevermind SLI a hardware could be disabled by the system
[10:18] <ikonia> m3kk: it can't
[10:18] <m3kk> RaTTuS|BIG: one monitor two cards
[10:18] <m3kk> ikonia: sounds pretty weird
[10:18] <george__> if I am upgrading a hard drive, what would be the best way to transfer all the data?
[10:18] <george__> I already have partitions and filesystems set
[10:19] <iceroot> george__: same size?
[10:19] <rhin0> george put it onto a cd or a dvd or a usb drive
[10:19] <george__> no, no the same size
[10:19] <deej1976> george__: homearea or complete system?
[10:19] <george__> complete system
[10:19] <george__> i only have sawp and /
[10:19] <RaTTuS|BIG> m3kk lshw -class display  | pastebinit
[10:19] <george__> partitions
[10:19] <ikonia> m3kk: it's not weird in the slightest,
[10:19] <m3kk> ikonia: in windows etc , i can disable whatever hardware i want? with linux being so open and customizable im sure you just missunderstood me
[10:19] <RaTTuS|BIG> back in 10 mins - need a CON
[10:19] <ikonia> m3kk: you're not using windows
[10:19] <iceroot> george__: for the complete system i would do this (maybe not the best way) dd the old hdd onto the new hdd and resize the partitons with gparted
[10:20] <rhin0> you can install a copy of ubuntu beside an older version on the same drive and you will be able to reference the partition george
[10:20] <ikonia> m3kk: the drivers you use are not "open" they are closed so only people at nvidia can decide what to enable/disable support/not-support
[10:20] <rhin0> george__
[10:20] <george__> is it possible to just use cp to copy everything on there?
[10:20] <m3kk> ikonia: im aware of that :P
[10:20] <ikonia> m3kk: then why are you talking nonsense about it being "open and customisable" if you know it's not
[10:20]  * rhin0 would back the lot up onto a DVD
[10:20] <m3kk> ikonia: nevermind what manuifactor the hardware has, you should be able to disable the hardware or even the port the hardware is plugged intto so the OS doesnt see the hardware, you see?
[10:21] <george__> im worried dd will mess something up
[10:21] <haylo_> dd is the only way i think like ikonia said
[10:21] <rhin0> you can make a complete tar archive of a system also -- crunched down george
[10:21] <ikonia> m3kk: no, you're just not making sense or you don't understand how the hardware / software interaction works
[10:21] <m3kk> ikonia: ok
[10:21] <livingdaylight> greetings ubunteros
[10:21] <deej1976> george__: sudo into root ; find / -devx -print -depth | cpio -pvdum /mnt/new/hd/root partition
[10:22] <livingdaylight> can someone tell me how i can find out whether I installed [a long time ago, hence don't remember] 32bit or 4bit version of ubuntu?
[10:22] <deej1976> george__: edit /etc/fstab update uuid labels, reinstall grub
[10:22] <ikonia> livingdaylight: uname -a please
[10:22] <m3kk> ikonia: i can disable the hardware in bios
[10:22] <ikonia> m3kk: correct
[10:23] <rhin0> uname -a livingdaylight tells you what you have -- if you have a 64 bit system uname -a will have 64 bit in the thing it says otherwise its 32 bit i'm not sure about 4 bit what are you running it on a calculator?
[10:23] <livingdaylight> ikonia, thx
[10:23] <livingdaylight> rhin0, got it - thanks
[10:23] <ikonia> rhin0: he made a typo
[10:23] <ikonia> 4 bit = 64bit without the 6
[10:23] <haylo_> i think it was a joke
[10:24] <george__> find / -devx
[10:24] <george__> find: unknown predicate `-devx'
[10:25] <deej1976> george__: sorry -xdev
[10:26] <george__> so it will just list every file in / and the cpio will copy?
[10:27] <deej1976> george__: yes, I've done this with redhat 6 :), so it might be a little hit or miss
[10:28] <danielsouzat> I installed something at Synaptic, and the grub theme changed to something about Debian. How I revert this?
[10:28] <george__> will cp -a work?
[10:29] <george__> cp -a / /mnt/disk ?
[10:29] <deej1976> george__: not sure would go with cpio -pvdum
[10:31] <leny> jacinthe

[10:32] <leny> un
[10:33] <george__> hmm
[10:33] <k_bx> Hi everyone! I have this feature proposal for Ubuntu: when someone renames a file (like from odt to doc, from png to jpg) it should somehow be able to ask "convert?". I know it's not so easy to implement, but it's a win in a long run. So is there a place where to put a feature-proposal like this? Thanks.
[10:33] <george__> ill try copying everything except proc and sys
[10:33] <david> hola
[10:34] <david> my name s david
[10:34] <david> i live in new york
[10:34] <newnoise> hi there. got some probs with ubuntu server 10.04 and a raid system
[10:34] <deej1976> george__: the -xdev should avoid those filesystems
[10:35] <newnoise> it says "no more space on device available" even though "df" outputs that just 50% of space are used
[10:35] <Guest77500> i saw my dick in the cam
[10:35] <Kamiccolo> df? Dwarf Fortress?
[10:35] <george__> you had all of / in one partition?
[10:35] <newnoise> no i have 4 partitions
[10:35] <Guest77500> but you saw me your boobs
[10:36] <Guest2138> Kamiccolo, df is a tool to report file system usage
[10:36] <Kamiccolo> Guest2130, oh, right.. sorry..
[10:36] <Kamiccolo> *crawls back gaming*
[10:36] <Guest2138> Wait... I'm guest? D:
[10:36] <Guest77500> are you eat my dick ?
[10:36] <deej1976> george__: It was a label install with just / and swap, /home was mount via nfs
[10:36] <newnoise> one for /, one for tmp, one for boot and one for var
[10:36] <jasef> Guest77500, please take non family-friendly talk OUT of #ubuntu.
[10:37] <deej1976> !offtopic: Guest77500

[10:40] <deej1976> george__: run the first part "find / -xdev -print -depth" and direct to a file ( > /tmp/findfilelist )
[10:40] <newnoise> when I try to write into /var it says: "no more space available" (or something similiar ;) )
[10:40] <george__> gonna go init 1
[10:41] <deej1976> newnoise: Can you explain what your trying to write to /var

[10:44] <newnoise> in this case under /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/

[10:56] <ncopa> how can i set NIC speed hard and disable auto-negotiation and make the change persistent to next reboot?
[10:56] <deej1976> newnoise: Can you download anything to your homearea?
[10:57] <newnoise> deej1976: yes. its just a problem in /var
[10:57] <deej1976> newnoise: Which directory under /var ?
[10:57] <newnoise> everything
[10:58] <deej1976> newnoise: Have you got permissions to write to /var ?
[10:58] <newnoise> deej1976: i tried it as root as well -> doenst work
[11:00] <almoxarife> newnoise: did you make permission changes?
[11:01] <__jonathan> Hi all, I moved from unity to gnome 3 with my ubuntu 11.04 but I've a small problem with the empathy notification icon
[11:01] <deej1976> newnoise:  cat you pastebin ls -lart /var
[11:01] <newnoise> almoxarife: yes. I tried to change permissions of one big folder (containing thousands of pictures) but aborted it because it took too long
[11:01] <__jonathan> when the icon blinks, it seems that one icon is missing. Don't know if I'm clear in my explanations
[11:01] <__jonathan> do you know how to solve it ?
[11:02] <newnoise> deej1976: http://pastebin.com/yWEi27GZ
[11:02] <newnoise> I just stumbled upon an article suggesting it might be because im dont have any free inodes available anymore?
[11:03] <newnoise> ha
[11:03] <newnoise> thats it
[11:03] <newnoise> df -i says 100% use of inodes in /var
[11:04] <deej1976> newnoise: Excellent, I've learnt something new
[11:04] <newnoise> deej1976: me too ;)
[11:04] <newnoise> but how can i solve the problen ;)
[11:05] <deej1976> newnoise: Would probably need to find what's taking all the inodes
[11:06] <gsd_> hello
[11:07] <newnoise> deej1976: so i have to delete files? no way too increase number of inodes?
[11:07] <deej1976> newnoise: No, unless a filesystem expert is here and can tell you.
[11:09] <newnoise> deej1976: because I know that its the pictures i draw
[11:12] <milligan> Can I tail a file and send each line to a script for parsing ?

[11:27] <tnm> deej1976, what about  vsftpd. Is it Ok?
[11:27] <mirrakor_> newnoise: cfdisk will tell you

[11:28] <Narc> Hello everyone. Anyone using Gnome Shell on 11.10 having issues with a slow search box ? Everything is just smooth and snappy except the application search taking a few long seconds to take my typing into account. I'm using the current nvidia drivers, no other issues. Thanks.
[11:28] <deej1976> blackshirt: wrong nick, I'm and ssh person
[11:29] <almoxarife> Narc: same here, lags just enough to annoy
[11:29] <mirrakor_> newnoise: actually sudo blkid /dev/<your disk here> will tell you the same :) (don't know if both are preinstalled)
[11:30] <Narc> almoxarife: Ah, yeah, I tried to ignore it but it makes it annoying to use...
[11:31] <Narc> almoxarife: Are you using the nvidia drivers too ?
[11:31] <newnoise> almoxarife: both say: linux raid member
[11:31] <newnoise> ...
[11:33] <almoxarife> Narc: not using nvidia, try this , I keep a link to /user/share/applications handy
[11:36] <mirrakor_> newnoise: I guess you ment me.  I've got vsftp loaded, i want the user to be able to ftp in but not via ssh.  usermod -s /usr/sbin/nologin  or /bin/false results in FTP failing. Help please?
[11:36] <hdon> hi all :) i have three systems. Foo is running "ssh -N -R<IP_ADDRESS>:12345:<IP_ADDRESS>:12345 bar" and baz is running "ssh -N -R<IP_ADDRESS>:12345:<IP_ADDRESS>:12345 bar" but no success. any advise greatly appreciated :)
[11:38] <newnoise> mirrakor_: right, I meant you ;) here is the output: http://pastebin.com/TXbnEkpA
[11:38] <hdon> DysonReturns: if i understand you correctly, you want users to be able to sftp, but not use the shell
[11:38] <DysonReturns> hdon, I want users to ftp but not ssh
[11:38] <hdon> DysonReturns: well it sounds like you're using sftp, which is ssh, but not necessarily giving them shell access
[11:38] <DysonReturns> hdon, or sftp, even for that matter. the problem is restricting the ssh user to his own folder, trying to work around that.
[11:39] <DysonReturns> hdon, just ftp.
[11:39] <hdon> DysonReturns: well i think you've got the right idea, though another possibility to restrict someone to a single root directory would be a chroot jail
[11:39] <hdon> i think your idea is the best way to do this
[11:39] <hdon> DysonReturns: check sftp-related options in your /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[11:40] <hdon> DysonReturns: also login/shell related options. it's possible sshd notices that the user doesn't have a real shell and then doesn't let them do anything
[11:40] <hdon> if that's happening then there's probably an option in there for that
[11:40] <DysonReturns> cool - i'll dig some. thank you.
[11:41] <SoulRaven> hi
[11:41] <SoulRaven> plase help me with something
[11:41] <SoulRaven> i have an notebook Compaq NX7400
[11:41] <hdon> regarding my problem... i have a reverse tunnel and a forward tunnel (ssh -R and -L respectively) to the same system, but am unable to connect through both tunnels. channel 2: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused
[11:41] <SoulRaven> and i just install the Xorg-edgers fresh X crack ppa
[11:41] <mirrakor_> newnoise: ok, this tells us your /var partition (how big is it actually?) has run out of inodes - var is a directory that tends to contain a lot of small files. So we basicly have two choices: find and remove a lot of small (unused) files or, move the stuff on it somewhere else,  reformat the partition and move everything back on it again (unfortunately there's no way to increase the amount of inodes online)
[11:42] <SoulRaven> and now i have only the desktop and the mouse cursor after restart, any ideea how i bring back the interface?
[11:42] <hdon> mirrakor_: /var has a lot of log files, too. you could tar them up
[11:42] <hdon> SoulRaven: are you still logging in via gdm?
[11:42] <newnoise> mirrakor_: ok, thats what i was afraid of. I created all the files ;) because its used as a tile server for an online web-app. so i gotta reformat the server ... too bad. thanks a lot for your help!
[11:43] <Breakable> a library asks for c++ compiler c98 standard compatible ...  what should I instsall ?
[11:43] <SoulRaven> hdon: i have tryed to restart lightgdm but nothing
[11:43] <SoulRaven> n change
[11:44] <hdon> SoulRaven: are you getting to the gdm login screen?
[11:44] <mirrakor_> newnoise: an osm server by any chance? I'd suggest you delete the tiles before you move the stuff - makes it easier/faster ;)
[11:44] <Breakable> a library asks for c++ compiler c98 standard compatible ...  what should I install ?
[11:45] <hdon> Breakable: gcc
[11:45] <SoulRaven> hdon yes, and after i login, i get only the background and the mouse cursor
[11:45] <qirk> Is it possible to adjust "lines per twofingervertscroll" somehow? Would like a smooth scroll as on mac
[11:45] <Tixos> why is the ubuntu fglrx driver useless?
[11:45] <hdon> SoulRaven: ok try instead something like startx (if that command is even still around, been a while for me) from the vt. do you know how to work with .xinitrc ?
[11:45] <mirrakor_> newnoise: when you're running mkfs.ext{your favorite version goes here} you can add the parameter -N <number of inodes> to explicitly create more inodes
[11:46] <Breakable> hdon:  I installed it already
[11:46] <SoulRaven> hdon, no, i don't know .xinitrc
[11:46] <Breakable> hdon: but still asks for a c++ compiler
[11:47] <Breakable> hdon: in config.log  , it tries gcc++ command
[11:47] <hdon> Breakable: whoops sorry wasn't reading. install g++
[11:47] <SoulRaven> hdon: is not working startx, /root/.Xauthority does not exist
[11:48] <zykotick9> SoulRaven, are you trying to startx as root?  or using sudo?
[11:49] <SoulRaven> as root
[11:49] <hdon> SoulRaven: yeah sorry if you don't know how to .xinitrc i am afraid i am rather useless to you unless i had more time on my hands than i do at this moment. good luck in fixing your problem :)
[11:50] <qirk> isn't the gtk scroll rate customizable? It's a about 3 lines with touchpad

[12:00] <mo0n_sniper> hello all
[12:01] <Arpit60> http://paste.ubuntu.com/740118/
[12:01] <newnoise> mirrakor_: yes, an osm server
[12:01] <nixmaniack> hi, I'm compiling linux kernel, now when i executed 'sudo make modules_install install' I've got error http://paste.ubuntu.com/740111/. I'm stuck at this
[12:02] <newnoise> mirrakor_: but i dont want to format the drive. I think I try to handle it by changing partition size and moving the tiles to a different partition
[12:03] <mirrakor_> newnoise: no need to format the whole disk, just the partition (or as you said, you move the tiles somewhere else like /opt/ )
[12:03] <RaTTuS|BIG> Arpit60 - use the usb stick to boot from the 1st HD i.e. your 500Gb one that should have linux on it
[12:04] <newnoise> mirrakor_: ok. so I could move all the stuff from /var to somewhere, reformat the partition and copy the stuff back on?
[12:04] <mirrakor_> newnoise: exactly
[12:05] <Arpit60> rattus|big can i pm you ?
[12:05] <newnoise> mirrakor_: but I cant do this while the system is running, can I?
[12:05] <RaTTuS|BIG> Arpit60 - proably nopt worth it TBH - I'm snowed under
[12:05] <Arpit60> okay
[12:06] <mirrakor_> newnoise: uhm, I think you could do this with a very small interruption or using a live cd
[12:06] <Arpit60> btw there is no restart also only hibernate and shitdown !!!! :(
[12:06] <Arpit60> shutdown
[12:06] <newnoise> mirrakor_: well its a remote server, so I cant use a live cd, but I could do it from rescue system
[12:07] <Arpit60> thanks for the help !
[12:07] <mirrakor_> newnoise: using the rescue system would probably be cleaner
[12:08] <mirrakor_> (otherwise we could hick up some running applications)
[12:13] <mirrakor_> procedure is like this: 1) creating a new dir anywhere you like [i.e. /opt/newvar/] 2.) use cp -a to recursivly copy all the files  from /var/ to /opt/newvar/ (-a keeps stuff like ownership etc.), 3.) umount /var/ 4.)reformat var ith mkfs.ext3 (as sai, you should use -N to set a higher inode count, probably 3 or 4 times the suggestes amount, but this really depends on how much files the tile server will produce - every file needs an
[12:13] <mirrakor_>  inode), 5.) mount the freshly formated partition to /var/ and the last step would be 6.) use cp -a again to copy the files from /opt/newvar/ to /var/ again
[12:14] <LeniOO> anyone know how can I force format on a read-only usb drive?
[12:14] <mirrakor_> LeniOO: specify read only
[12:15] <LeniOO> in a sec
[12:15] <SoulRaven> ther is any oficial drivers for intel 945gm?
[12:16] <mirrakor_> SoulRaven: tried the Intel website?
[12:16] <LeniOO> that's what I get when I try to format this drive in gparted: Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/sdb1: Read-only file system
[12:16] <SoulRaven> or what drivers ar recomandet, because i have try with xorg-edgers fresh X crack and i get only debsktop background and cursor mouse
[12:16] <newnoise> mirrakor_: thanks. how would I use the mkfs.ext3 command with -N to create 4 times of the suggested amount?
[12:16] <Pitel> how is oneiric friendly with sandy bridge?
[12:17] <mirrakor_> Pitel: runs here
[12:17] <mirrakor_> newnoise: uhm, I think if you try to run mkfs.ext3 on the partition it should calculate a value and prints it, then you have to enter y or so to proceed with the formating, if you abort here you can take the calculated value and multiply it as you with
[12:18] <LeniOO> mirrakor_: and that's what I get when I try to delete partition: http://pastebin.com/CTWavJus
[12:18] <SoulRaven> mirrakor_: what is you sugestion, oficial drivers or xorg-edgers fresh X crack
[12:19] <newnoise> mirrakor_: what do you think of this: the / partition doesnt use its space at all
[12:19] <mirrakor_> SoulRaven: I really can't tell you that (did you check the ubuntu wiki?) since I don't own this hardware, but if there's nothing in the wiki, I'd try the official intel driver (http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Internet+Devices&ProductLine=Netbooks&ProductProduct=Mobile+Intel%c2%ae+945GM+Express+Chipset+Family)
[12:19] <newnoise> what about cutting 200gb from it and mounting it to /var/lib/tomcat/mytiles and formatting this drive with a lot of inodes?
[12:19] <mirrakor_> LeniOO: is there some switch on the usb drive to mechanicly set it to read only?
[12:20] <Holden> Hello people :) any news about Firefox 8 reaching the official repos for natty/oneiric?
[12:20] <LeniOO> nope, I don't see anything
[12:21] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[12:21] <mirrakor_> newnoise: if you don't need the space otherwise it's also a working solution - keep in mind that the more i nodes you create the less actual storage you have (it's not that bad, but the inodes which are like metatags attached to the files need storage too, so maybe it would even be interesting to see if there's another filesystem that's better suited for your needs (if you have the free disc space and you're going to use it for the
[12:21] <mirrakor_> server exclusively)
[12:22] <newnoise> mirrakor_: that sounds reasonable. do you maybe have any suggestions?
[12:23] <mirrakor_> oh well, to be honest it's been a while since I looked into that field, you'd have to give me a few minutes (there are in fact fs that are better suited for lots of small files)
[12:25] <newnoise> mirrakor_: and is there a chance to do the repartitioning online?
[12:26] <AbstractBeliefs> hey guys. i installed ubuntu onto my laptop last night, and its all fine until i ran the update manager. let it install what it wanted, but now i have two kernal versions, and neither boot
[12:26] <AbstractBeliefs> any ideas?
[12:26] <mirrakor_> LeniOO: in the meantime could you paste me the following comands to pastebin: sudo fdisk -l ; sudo cat /etc/fstab ; ls -l /media*
[12:27] <stefan___> AbstractBeliefs: What about error output?
[12:27] <MonkeyDust> AbstractBeliefs: in GRUB, can you choose Recovery Mode?
[12:28] <Thelmaria> I ran nvidia-settings, and it informed me I wasn't using the nvidia driver, please run nvidia-xconfig as root to fix and restart x-server. Did that, and on reboot I'm informed the same issue. cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia returns "Driver "nvidia"".
[12:28] <mirrakor_> newnoise: could you give me a housenumber of the filesize the tiles have?
[12:29] <AbstractBeliefs> stefan___, MonkeyDust: from grub, i have both kernel 32-33 and 32-35, but neither boot (they hang, hitting the power button brings it to the loading screen but powers off). trying the recovery modes now
[12:29] <AbstractBeliefs> screen is blank when hung, too
[12:30] <LeniOO> mirrakor_: in a sec, need to restart, brb
[12:31] <newnoise> mirrakor_: well mapnik stopped working while drawing the 17th of 18 zoom-scales. until then it were about 23M tiles. I think in the end it will at least be around 50M.
[12:31] <mirrakor_> newnoise: you can take a look at e2fsprogs, I think they should be able to resize ext2/3  online
[12:31] <AbstractBeliefs> MonkeyDust, stefan___: recovery modes dont boot. last is see is "/init/bottom \n done"
[12:32] <mirrakor_> newnoise: I mean the size of one actual tiles
[12:32] <mirrakor_> cause if we're using the fs only for tiles, then it might be worth adjusting the blocksize to fit the tiles
[12:32] <Arpit60> hi
[12:32] <mirrakor_> hi
[12:33] <Arpit60> so i booted from usb and selected boot from first hard disk,but nothing,it shows same screen again
[12:33] <Arpit60> so i booted normally and than when i go to home folder it shows my hdd partitions for a second or two and after that they disappear
[12:34] <Arpit60> i cant mount them
[12:34] <Arpit60> problems related to file system ?
[12:35] <Arpit60> so anyone can help me ?

[12:36] <localg0d> is there a program in ubuntu that will automatically show the days until a certain or set date ? kindof like a date calculator ?
[12:37] <newnoise> mirrakor_: filesize of one tile is around 20kb per picure
[12:37] <Arpit60> guys its not even showing my pen drive ?
[12:37] <Arpit60> wat to do ?
[12:38] <MonkeyDust> !patience| Arpit60
[12:39] <AbstractBeliefs> MonkeyDust, stefan___ : neither 33 or 35 boot in normal or recovery mode after this botched(?) update manager run. im considering just booting back to livecd, wiping those partitions (dualbooted with win7), and retrying. how is grub going to like that?
[12:39] <Hans_Henrik> how do i restart apache2?
[12:40] <newnoise> mirrakor_: gotta get something to eat. I post you when Im back. Thanks a lot for the help!
[12:40] <stefan___> Hans_Henrik: sudo service apache2 restart
[12:40] <localg0d> AbstractBeliefs: you should reformat and clear out your entire drive intended for your install and proceed to install windows before you reinstall ubuntu or else windows will knock out your boot manager for linux ;) and it should be fine if u do it in that order when you whipe your drive .. goodnight ;)
[12:40] <Hans_Henrik> stefan__: thanks
[12:40] <hrw> hi
[12:40] <hrw> someone here is using gwibber with twitter?
[12:41] <AbstractBeliefs> localg0d, i dont think ill need to go that far xD
[12:41] <localg0d> ok .. now i'm going to sleep ... cause nobody can tell me where i can get a day to date calculator ;o
[12:41] <Invitado34> i changed gforce for ati driver card and now i m having problmes with a java game anything about ?
[12:41] <AbstractBeliefs> localg0d, google, or hit the software centre forit
[12:42] <VEndiX> hello, where can i find full themes for ubuntu 11.10? any ideas suggestions?
[12:42] <localg0d> AbstractBeliefs: looked on google and only found online free versions on websites ... and the software repo got jack for it ;)
[12:43] <AbstractBeliefs> localg0d, im sure if you hit the osftware center, youll be able to find a calendar or diary or journal program that includes a count down option
[12:43] <AbstractBeliefs> especially with xmas a new year so close
[12:43] <MisterMom> VEndiX,  gnome-look.org
[12:44] <Hans_Henrik> why is ubuntu repo's of firefox 5 major release versions out of date?
[12:45] <Thelmaria> Hans_Henrik: Because firefox releases every second day, and the ubuntu release schedule is rather slower then that. Would be my guess.
[12:46] <Random892> Q). can anyone recommend a VPS for 10.04 server ? 256mb 10gb
[12:46] <Thelmaria> Hans_Henrik: You can use a ppa to install whatever firefox you wish, though - see here for some details: (http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/07/firefox-8-is-20-faster-than-firefox-5.html). Or Lady Google.
[12:47] <qwer> add "ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable" to Software Sources if you want the last firefox
[12:48] <hrw> bug 891116 is irritating - did someone got hit by that?
[12:50] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[12:53] <Guest80567> lol
[12:53] <Hans_Henrik> is the default apache2 install single-threaded, and using just 1 core no matter how many connections it has to handle at once?
[12:54] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: single thread, mutli-process
[12:54] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: each reqeust has an own process
[12:54] <Hans_Henrik> iceroot: oh, ok.. smart i guess
[12:55] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 11.10 GNOME Shell 3.2] I wonder what the text means "You are currently on the update channel" that appears if I press in Firefox 7.0.1 > Help > About Firefox?
[12:55] <Hans_Henrik> iceroot: so, if i have 10,000 simultaneous connections, i will see at least 10,000 apache2 processes running, if i get a list of running processes?
[12:55] <FusionX> During installation, how do I know what's happening behind the scenes?
[12:56] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: no, you system will die before
[12:56] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: but yes
[12:56] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: ps aux | grep apache2  will show multiple processes, each is an own connection
[12:57] <Dan_E> Can anyone direct me to some simple instructions to change the grub screen for ubuntu 11.10 I don't like the purple screen.
[12:57] <leotr> hi! my unity is loaded in 2d mode. what can be a problem?
[12:58] <hrw> Dan_E: edit /etc/default/grub?
[12:59] <Dan_E> thanks will look there
[13:00] <Hans_Henrik> iceroot: btw i tried syn-flood testing against an ubuntu+apache2 and xp+xampp's apache2 (with xp unlimited connections patched); and the apache2 server crashed after ~300 connections, but on linux with the exact same hardware (same computer, multi-boot), i cancled the attack after ~2000 connections and the server still loaded quickly, unable to crash or freeze it
[13:00] <FusionX> During installation, how do I know what's happening behind the scenes?
[13:00] <FusionX> The dropdown provides no information
[13:00] <X-tonic> why no firefox 8 yet on apt-get?
[13:00] <iceroot> Hans_Henrik: dont use xampp and/or winxp for servers :)
[13:00] <deej1976> !ff
[13:01] <Hans_Henrik> iceroot: and my friends at tibiafun.eu tried the same against windows 2008 server+xampp's apache, stil crashed after ~300 connections :p
[13:02] <Dan_E> So I am a bit of a noob and I am there but still need instructions on how to do it!
[13:02] <Hans_Henrik> (that was considderably better hardware also iirc)
[13:03] <MonkeyDust> Dan_E: open gedit and there go to /etc/default/grub
[13:03] <dr_willis> Dan_E:  you may want to learn some linux fundamentals befor messing with the bootloader.
[13:05] <FusionX> During installation, how do I know what's happening behind the scenes? The dropdown provides no information
[13:05] <RaTTuS|BIG> FusionX - open a terminal window and type tail -f /var/log/syslog
[13:06] <Dan_E> I just want to add an image to the screen instead of the blank purple screen
[13:06] <IppatsuMan> Hi all. I have a problem with fglrx. I have a ATI Radeon HD 4500 and I use the fglrx-updates driver on Ubuntu Oneiric. Occasionally, my system crashes with a blue screen with stripes. The sys rq key does not work, so I guess that the kernel is dead. I tried googling for my problem but I was not able to find any solution or hint on how to fix it.
[13:06] <IppatsuMan> Xorg.0.log and syslog have no interesting lines. Any hint? Does anybody know this bug? A fix would be great, but even a bugreport on launchpad would be fine.
[13:07] <FusionX> RaTTuS|BIG: I'm in the middle of an installation, how do I open the terminal?
[13:08] <RaTTuS|BIG> FusionX - ctrl-alt-t
[13:09] <Hans_Henrik> basically just did equalent of: apt-get install gcc g++ build-essential apache2 php5 php-pear php5-dev mysql-server         ; now when i try to run pecl install apd; i get  running: phpize \n Cannot find config.m4. \n Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module \n\n ERROR: 'phpize' failed \n
[13:09] <Hans_Henrik> any1 know what im missing/doing wrong?
[13:09] <FusionX> RaTTuS|BIG: nothing :/
[13:09] <FusionX> RaTTuS|BIG: Is this a gnome shortcut?
[13:10] <X-tonic> shouldn't eye of gnome be dropped from ubuntu, since it already ships Shotwell? given that cd space is a constraint?
[13:10] <RaTTuS|BIG> FusionX - maybe if you have gone for an install that is not avaialble - you could try ctrl-alt-f1 and open a new terminal window -
[13:10] <RaTTuS|BIG> back in 15
[13:11] <FusionX> RaTTuS|BIG: ah thanks, I'm in xubuntu btw, maybe that's why the shortcut didn't work
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> FusionX: you can install guake and have one that drops down with a shortcut
[13:11] <FusionX> ActionParsnip: I'm in the middle of an installation
[13:12] <z3r0c007> how to remove ppa on 11.10
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> FusionX: gotcha
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> z3r0c007: you can use ppa-purge or software centre
[13:13] <z3r0c007> ok tnxs
[13:16] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 11.10 GNOME Shell 3.2] I wonder what the text means "You are currently on the update channel" that appears if I press in Firefox 7.0.1 > Help > About Firefox?
[13:16] <gnomerlocker> Why isn't my Firefox updating on Ubuntu 11.10? Does anyone have a similar problem?
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: how did you install the browser?
[13:17] <crizzy> bullgard4: it should say "on the <stable/nightly/whatever" update channel, so basically it means ubuntu has disabled updating firefox from official sources
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: which version are you on and which release?
[13:17] <X-tonic> @ gnomerlocker: !ff
[13:17] <X-tonic> !ff

[13:18] <X-tonic> !thanks | ActionParsnip :P
[13:18] <bullgard4> ActionParsnip: I installed it automatically when dist-upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04.
[13:18] <z3r0c007> the firefox 7.0.1 have error upgrade your firefox into firefox8
[13:19] <Dan_E> is this the line i edit? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> z3r0c007: there is a PPA with firefox stable builds
[13:19] <dr_willis> Dan_E:  depends on whatg you are wanting to do.
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> Dan_E: to add bootoptios, yes
[13:19] <z3r0c007> yap
[13:19] <bullgard4> crizzy: Thank you for commenting.
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> Dan_E: after adding it you will need to run:  sudo update-grub   to apply

[13:25] <RaTTuS|BIG> ask it then Lunar_Lamp
[13:26] <bullgard4> What programs are using the environment variable DESKTOP_SESSION?
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: you can get ver 11 from the daily build ppa if you are feeling brave
[13:27] <aguitel> Lunar_Lamp, http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ see there
[13:27] <Lunar_Lander> cool, thanks!
[13:28] <gnomerlocker> ActionParsnip: Thanks. Works now.. Not up for 11 though. :P
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: sweet, not tried 11 myself, but I don't use firefox
[13:29] <Lunar_Lander> OK, have a nice day then! :)
[13:30] <gnomerlocker> ActionParsnip: Me neither, but it should bring some new features (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/firefox-11-alpha-to-land-december-20th-will-bring-speed-dial-chrome-migration/)
[13:30] <puwei> hello , everyone, could you tell me how can i  rotate my term screen ( ctrl+alt+1)   90 degree
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: you can install speed dial as an addon
[13:30] <bakhtiyor> hi everybody
[13:30] <gnomerlocker> ActionParsnip: Really?
[13:31] <puwei> hello , everyone, could you tell me how can i  rotate my term screen ( ctrl+alt+1)   90 degree
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/speed-dial/    Opera has had speed dial for AGES
[13:32] <gnomerlocker> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I know about Opero. Had no idea you could have that in Firefox as well :P
[13:32] <dr_willis> puwei:  you refering to the console display? or the X sessions display?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: Chrome has speed dial 2 which has a real nice text based export/import feature
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> gnomerlocker: opera had speed dial in 2007 :)
[13:33] <lokidervish> speed dial is boss
[13:33] <dr_willis> puwei:  the consoles an use the framebuffer, so it might be doable with the various fbset or other fb settings..
[13:33] <dr_willis> Using Opera on my PC and Phone. :)
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Funny how firefox only just introduced it...

[13:57] <ActionParsnip> prashant_123456: use bleachbit to clear out guff, run it as root too. Avoid settings which say they will take a long time and watch your settings for apps or it will remove stuff you want to keep

[14:00] <xananax> Hello, nautilus is unusable (slow and taking 100% cpu)...What can I do?
[14:00] <ubidoobi2> hi all ... need help with 11.10 swap part.  this is what the partition looks like in gpart.   /dev/sda6  ! (black box) unknown 4.75 gb
[14:00] <AdvoWork> if i have /var/www/dir/dir/images/NEWcompleted -> /home/NEWcompleted   what is the original source of the files?
[14:01] <rootux> #ubunt-de
[14:01] <prashant_123456> usr13, ActionParsnip http://imagebin.org/184317
[14:01] <rootux> #ubuntu-de
[14:01] <ubidoobi2> also was wondering - since i'm obviously running without a swap here how much this will slow down the system.  or will it with 5 gb of ram.
[14:02] <adi11>  hi all. i have some problems with my laptop hp dv 6700. installed latest ubuntu. when i boot after grub screen i choose ubuntu. but it fails to load the os one out of two times. anyone any idea what that might be? thanks
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> ubidoobi2: probably none at all unless you start running a LOT of apps
[14:02] <oogabooga> anyone have a broken AMD CPU they would like to sell?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> !ot | oogabooga
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> prashant_123456: you can pastebin that text, no need for an image
[14:03] <ubidoobi2> ActionParsnip - takes about 10 seconds to load Chrome after fresh boot .. seems like a long time to me.  It is next to instant in win7 on the same machine
[14:03] <prashant_123456> ActionParsnip, how to pastebin pls explain the simple way
[14:03] <RaTTuS|BIG> ls -l | pastebinit
[14:03] <RaTTuS|BIG> or whatever command
[14:04] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: Take am Ubuntu live CD and use GParted to repair the swap partition.
[14:04] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: Take an Ubuntu live CD and use GParted to repair the swap partition.
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> prashant_123456: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> ubidoobi2: different OS with different mechanisms
[14:05] <ubidoobi2> bullgar4: can i do it from within ubuntu? .. i don't have a live cd .. i did this install from the alternative cd because the live would not recognize the drive at all
[14:05] <_Boot> It's kind of funny, without the ATI proprietary driver everything works quite nicely
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> ubidoobi2: swap is only used if you fill your RAM up, like swap space in Windows
[14:05] <prashant_123456> ActionParsnip, it says need to install pastebinit
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> prashant_123456: yes, install it.Its a fantastic app
[14:05] <RaTTuS|BIG> prashant_123456 sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[14:05] <prashant_123456> ActionParsnip, ok
[14:05] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: No. You'll need a live CD.
[14:05] <Gorkyman> hey guys... how do I limit the command output by page? :)
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> pastebinit should be default installed imho
[14:05] <xananax> Sorry to be a bother but I really need the help, I have a lot of work and my pc is simply not usable, re-install is not an option (no time!) please can anyone point me in the right direction? Nautilus is frozen, desktop is frozen, and of course everything related to nautilus freezes too
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> Gorkyman: could pipe into less
[14:06] <_Boot> One thing that has changed since installing/uninstalling the driver is my tty font has gone back to the chunky one rather than the default
[14:06] <_Boot> How do I revert the tty font?
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: change the font rendering level
[14:06] <_Boot> How do I do that?
[14:06] <bullgard4> Gorkyman: Append '| more' to your command.
[14:07] <Gorkyman> yeah thats what I was after
[14:07] <Gorkyman> thanks
[14:07] <rootux> what can u do with pastebinit?
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: system settings
[14:07] <ubidoobi2> bullgard4 : any idea what would happen if i tried doing this from within ubuntu? ... this is how the swap was setup at install ... so not like i would be changing any data on it .
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> rootux: pipe command outputs and files to it and it will make a URL
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> rootux: saves having to use a browser to pastebin files, waaaaaay faster

[14:08] <lokidervish> would there be any obvious concerns with installing win7/ubuntu/backtrack5r1 on single machine? my concern is mainly with the two flavors of linux on the same machine, thanks in advance

[14:09] <adi11> hi all. i have some problems with my laptop hp dv 6700. installed latest ubuntu. when i boot after grub screen i choose ubuntu. but it fails to load the os one out of two times. anyone any idea what that might be? thanks
[14:09] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: You do not want to change data on a swap partition? I believe that you do not know the proper use of a swap partiton yet. Get informed about the basic functionality of a swap partition.
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Configuring_Ubuntu_Desktop_Fonts
[14:09] <prashant_123456> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/740237/
[14:10] <_Boot> its the tty fonts i mean, like when you ctrlaltF1
[14:10] <Bhavesh_> ActionParsnip: Well if you have used a Nokia phone before, how would I boot from MicroSD like I do on my PC?
[14:10] <ubidoobi2> bullgard4: .. i know what the swap is for .. but obviously there is something within that partition telling the partition what it actually is ... isn't there? LOL
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> Bhavesh_: no idea, sorry
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> prashant_123456: use bleachbit, it will clean a lot of space out
[14:11] <_Boot> and 11.10's appearance settings are a little cut down now anyway :/
[14:11] <Menthane> Guys I'm making a bootable USB but unetbootin' has done 5% of the unarchiving in like 12-15 minutes. Apart from unetbootin' what could I use instead?
[14:12] <rootux> what is the command to scent wirless networks?
[14:12] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: The formatting of this partition determines in this case the basic functionality of this partition.
[14:12] <edbian> rootux: sudo iwlist scan
[14:12] <ubidoobi2> bullgard4 ... i'll give it a whirl and hope for the best.
[14:12] <bullgard4> rootux: 'scent'? please explain what you mean.
[14:13] <_Boot> can anyone tell me what the default FONTFACE/FONTSIZE settings are in /etc/default/console-setup ?
[14:14] <rootux> sry bullgard4 i thought it's the same  as tracking
[14:14] <prashant_123456> ActionParsnip, thanks
[14:14] <ubidoobi2> bullgard4: .. it gave me an error .. would not format to swap.
[14:15] <rootux> what is the sense of this red line?
[14:15] <afrodeity> I am looking for a bulk email verifier, anybody?
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: 16 here in Precise
[14:16] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: I have never had this error message. Please google for it.
[14:16] <_Boot> ah okay thanks, something has changed mine to 16 in Fixed
[14:16] <rootux> how can i quit irssi in the terminal? (i try q and "exit")
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: mine is fixed too: http://paste.ubuntu.com/740245/
[14:17] <somsip> rootux:  type /quit
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> rootux:type;   /quit
[14:17] <_Boot> Hmm what.
[14:17] <ubidoobi2> bullgard .. yeah something is wrong there .. i manage to get it unallocated ... but when i go to format ... none of the options highlight - swap, ext4 etc.
[14:17] <_Boot> Since the ati driver it's gone into a smaller DOS-style font
[14:17] <_Boot> is all i can describe it as anyway
[14:17] <_Boot> instead of the nice sharp one before
[14:18] <_Boot> maybe it was terminus before
[14:18] <_Boot> well I'll try terminus on next boot :D
[14:19] <bullgard4> ubidoobi2: I don't know why.
[14:19] <ZePwincessPearl> hey

[14:21] <ZePwincessPearl> ooh sorry can anyone suggest me a channel to talk on facebook stuff kinda new here
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: try gnome-tweak-tool
[14:22] <rootux> how can i list wirless networks in the termianl?
[14:22] <_Boot> hmm?
[14:22] <llutz> rootux: iwlist s

[14:25] <scriptwarlock> let me try here: FXComposeContext: illegal window parameter: aborted in libfox1.6 oneiric, any ideas?
[14:26] <Snicksie> scriptwarlock, have you reported a bug about this?
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> _Boot: yep, gnome-tweak-tool has a fonts section
[14:27] <scriptwarlock> Snicksie, yes but very desperate to have the solution since my software is very important for my cyber cafe shop
[14:28] <afrodeity> ok, found a solution, I need to install vrfy

[14:42] <vooze> any ideas?
[14:43] <RedArmy> Is Ubuntu One uninstallable in 11.10?
[14:43] <vooze> RedArmy: sure, just go to software center and remove
[14:43] <AdvoWork> if i have /var/www/dir/dir/images/NEWcompleted -> /home/NEWcompleted   what is the original source of the files?
[14:44] <|Slacker|> RedArmy, guess so...check the software center
[14:44] <RedArmy> I assume removing it will also remove the annoying 'avaialble for purchase' stuff when searching in unity
[14:45] <dyd> how can i list the software i have installed?
[14:46] <zmbmartin> Is I switch from workspace 1 to workspace 4 google chrome closes. I can switch to workspace 2 or 3 but once I switch to 4 it closes. Anyone else seeing this?

[15:22] <elz89> vooze: also take a look at 'mkfs' mkvfat' etc just mk'tab' and explore bud...
[15:22] <BluesKaj> xapel, you couls have read that yourself
[15:22] <xapel> BluesKaj: I thought that was 20 minutes ago
[15:22] <kanhiya> I have installed plug ins
[15:22] <kanhiya> Skummel: I am using Google & yahoo
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: seems you are on Gnome2
[15:22] <BluesKaj> xapel, just try  #ubuntu-classroom
[15:22] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: Atm yes
[15:23] <KittyBunny> I did say i'm currently logged into GNOME 2 session
[15:23] <elz89> vooze: another nice command for you would me 'df -h'
[15:23] <ubidoobi2> looking for a robust linux distro for older laptop running xp - any ideas? hdd is small ... like 20 gb .. want something that is fast
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: but 3 isn't installed at all, which makes it weird how your OS looks how it does
[15:23] <elz89> ubidoobi2: tinycore
[15:23] <fokuslee> ubidoobi2: how about puppy
[15:23] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: It is installed.
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: try in flash properties app allowing webcam access
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: what is?
[15:24] <xapel> BluesKaj: Sorry, I am a bit over eager, it seems I am almost a week too early :)
[15:24] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: gnome3-shell
[15:24] <ubidoobi2> elz89: i have tinycore on a older desktop ... it's fine and boots fast and all ... a little ahead of the learning curve that i'm on though
[15:24] <KittyBunny> and gnome3-session
[15:24] <KittyBunny> I installed them both.
[15:24] <vooze> compdoc: well, i wanted to make a Linux mint 12 rc LIVE DVD, so i plugged the external harddrive in, and pressed "delete drive" in usb-creator-gtk. And then it was gone
[15:24] <elz89> ubidoobi2: puppy then.
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: it's not compatible with Maverick, which is why you are getting issues
[15:24]  * KittyBunny sighs
[15:25] <elz89> vooze: use unetbootin.
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> elz89: xpud is decent too
[15:25] <vooze> elz89: gparted cant see it :/
[15:25] <compdoc> vooze, you might unplug the external and plug it in again
[15:25] <elz89> ActionParsnip: xpud is news to me, thank mate.
[15:25] <panv> hi, I am trying to disable my laptop touchpad when i have a normal mouse plugged in... but I don't know how to do that... please i need some help... I use ubuntu 11.10
[15:25] <vooze> compdoc: done it like 10 times :)
[15:25] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: Then help me upgrade.
[15:25] <compdoc> vooze, then nm
[15:25] <KittyBunny> Everytime I upgrade my sound fails to work.
[15:25] <KittyBunny> and nobody in here seems to know how to fix it.
[15:26] <kanhiya> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: I'd install Oneiric clean, alternatively you can sit on Maverick til April next year and install Precise Pangolin which is LTS
[15:26] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: Oneiric?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> !oneiric | KittyBunny
[15:27] <vooze> elz89: unetbootin cant see the drive either
[15:27] <LogicallyDashing> There are a bunch of fuser processes making my computer slow. I want to find out why they're starting. So I guess I want to know what process launched some other process. How do I do this?

[15:28] <burgerillo> Hi.. in ubuntu 11.04 and now 11.10 ubuntu could not install grub loader to /dev/sda... now my computer wont even boot to the ubuntu usb disk!
[15:28] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: I can only seem to upgrade to 11.04
[15:28] <burgerillo> Does anyone recognize this well known bug and know the fix?
[15:28] <elz89> burgerillo: what can you boot to?
[15:28] <burgerillo> I remember many people had the same issue when I had it with 11.04
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> KittyBunny: you will need to upgrade to Natty (11.04) first, then to Oneiric (11.10)
[15:28] <burgerillo> elz89: nothing
[15:29] <xsl> Does anyone use istanbul with Oneiric?
[15:29] <elz89> ok got a rescue medium?
[15:29] <iceroot> !anyone | xsl
[15:29] <burgerillo> nope.
[15:29] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: brb booting into test partition.
[15:29] <kanhiya> I usually disable my touch pad by double tapping  near a LED provided at the edge & LED start glowing in Windows, in Ubuntu 11.10 touchpad is working but i am not able to disable it by tapping near LED, which software to download for that
[15:29] <vooze> elz89: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/508707/
[15:29] <BluesKaj> burgerillo, why not just upgrade via the 'net
[15:29] <xsl> Wen i start istanbul i dont see any output or place to click .. im missing a tray or something
[15:29] <LogicallyDashing> kanhiya: you can disable the doubletap in system settings
[15:30] <burgerillo> Because i prefer wiping and doing a clean install
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: does it make an evernt in xev?
[15:31] <lockergnomer> Can someone tell me why this is happening to me on Ubuntu 11.10? http://i43.tinypic.com/2v9rak0.png
[15:31] <kanhiya> LogicallyDashing: I am saying to disable touch pad entirely when i tap twice near LED provided on touchpad
[15:31] <xsl> What desktop session record tool should i use in oneiric ?
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: thats the grid plugin
[15:31] <rozaq> haii
[15:31] <kanhiya> ActionParsnip: I don't understand
[15:31] <imbezol_> lockergnomer: virtual machine?
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: if you grab a window and drag it to the left that will happen
[15:31] <rozaq> i want to get yahoo messngger..
[15:31] <BluesKaj> burgerillo, well, good luck
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> kanhiya: xev is a terminal command
[15:32] <rozaq> how to get installer ?
[15:32] <kanhiya> oh!
[15:32] <LogicallyDashing> kanhiya: oh, well, it's really just a workaround but there's a panel applet to lock the mouse pointer
[15:32] <lockergnomer> ActionParsnip: I knew that already, but I haven't dragged anything. It just appears out of nowhere.
[15:32] <newnoise> hum. I dont know what to do know. i changed partition size with resize2fs but if i look now with "df -h" it still has the same size
[15:32] <lockergnomer> imbezol_: No.
[15:32] <vooze> rozaq: i think pidgin can do yahoo
[15:32] <elz89> vooze: can you not just do what I asked?
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: drag something there, it may make it go away
[15:32] <vooze> elz89: what did i miss ? :/
[15:32] <KittyBunny> ActionParsnip: Ok i'm booted into natty now.
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> rozaq: there use to be gyahe
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> *gyache
[15:33] <kanhiya> LogicallyDashing: Tell me about the app & how to add that to taskbar
[15:33] <KittyBunny> I've launched the Update Manager.
[15:33] <lockergnomer> ActionParsnip: I know about that too, but the thing is that it's really annoying me since it happens like very time I go to the left.
[15:33] <KittyBunny> Guess what?
[15:33] <KittyBunny> Theres no upgrades
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: do you use the snap feature?
[15:33] <KittyBunny> How do I upgrade?
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade  | KittyBunny
[15:33] <lockergnomer> ActionParsnip: No.
[15:33] <KittyBunny> k
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: then disable the plugin. It will make the WM use fewer resources too
[15:33] <elz89> vooze: why not just do what you were asked to do?
[15:34] <lockergnomer> ActionParsnip: What's the plugin's name in CompizConfig?
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: you can disable stuff in ccsm, you don't have to keep the default stuff enabled
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lockergnomer: its called: grid
[15:34] <elz89> vooze: lsusb | pastebinit
[15:35] <AdvoWork> if i have /var/www/dir/dir/images/NEWcompleted -> /home/NEWcompleted   what is the original source of the files?

[15:36] <lockergnomer> ActionParsnip: Ah, what a relief! Thanks.
[15:36] <newnoise> hum. I dont know what to do know. i changed partition size with resize2fs but if i look now with "df -h" it still has the same size
[15:37] <LogicallyDashing> kanhiya: it appears I was remembering something from xfce and not unity or gnome. sorry
[15:37] <blackshirt> p
[15:37] <LogicallyDashing> anyway the answer to my previous question was pstree
[15:38] <kanhiya> ActionParsnip: It doesnot make a event when i try to disable touchpad by tapping near end
[15:38] <kanhiya> i am using a synaptic touchpad
[15:39] <elz89> vooze: is the drive plugged in?
[15:39] <vooze> elz89: yes, just tryed to plug it in another usb, was outcome
[15:39] <vooze> same outcome **
[15:39] <elz89> gparted should see it

[15:42] <Alphahunter> hello
[15:43] <Alphahunter> This is a cool irc
[15:43] <rootux> does anybody know a good python tutorial ?
[15:43] <auronandace> rootux: they would in #python
[15:43] <elz89> !google | rootux
[15:43] <Alphahunter> theres one called a byte of pythin
[15:44] <elz89> well... that told me.
[15:44] <lgp171188> Hi, in my oneiric installation, sounds in pidgin alone suddenly stopped working after upgrades. Any ways I can debug and fix the issue? I can hear the sounds in pidgin preferences menu when I trigger the preview .
[15:45] <rootux> still waiting for a useful tip...
[15:45] <auronandace> rootux: have you asked in #python?
[15:46] <rootux> i will thx
[15:48] <xsl> !video editor
[15:49] <auronandace> xsl: you could try openshot
[15:50] <xsl> auronandace : i was googling and found a name - cinelerra
[15:50] <xsl> but will give openshot a try
[15:51] <somsip> rootux: Python The Hard Way could be worth a try
[15:52] <rootux> somsip: :)
[15:52] <newnoise> is it possible to run gparted from terminal?
[15:53] <newnoise> !info gparted
[15:53] <zykotick9> xsl, cinelerra is sorta pro-grade (i don't find it very stable however), openshot and pitivi are more consumer oriented video editors
[15:53] <auronandace> newnoise: you can launch it yes, but if you want a cli partitioner you may want to try fdisk
[15:54] <xsl> zykotick9 : as long i can put some sound on the video and cut some frames, im happy
[15:54] <newnoise> auronandace: can i shrink a partition with fdisk?
[15:54] <zykotick9> xsl, try openshot and/or pitivi then
[15:54] <auronandace> newnoise: don't know sorry, man fdisk and find out
[15:55] <rumpe1> newnoise, no
[15:55] <zykotick9> newnoise, parted is the cli version of gparted
[15:55] <rumpe1> newnoise, for shrinking you would need to adapt the filesystem on the partition. fdisk only manages the sizes and location of the partitions.
[15:56] <newnoise> rumpe1: can i shrink a partition with parted?
[15:56] <zykotick9> newnoise, "parted - The GNU Parted disk partition resizing program"
[15:56] <bugweed> hi, may i know what is the name of the screen before the login?
[15:56] <pedrosans> Hi all, have anyone experienced a bad substitution problem while using maven in ubuntu?
[15:56] <newnoise> zykotick9: sounds good :)
[15:56] <somsip> bugweed: Plymouth?
[15:57] <auronandace> bugweed: you mean during boot? plymouth
[15:57] <bugweed> somsip: ok, then how do i edit them in ubuntu 11.10?
[15:57] <somsip> bugweed: <shrugs>
[15:57] <bugweed> anyone know how to edit plymouth on ubuntu
[15:58] <Ghost1227> anyone know how to change the libnotify display location?
[15:58] <Spikes> hi all, If i'm using ssh key with passphrase to connect to remote server should ssh ask for passphrase every time i log in?
[15:58] <zykotick9> bugweed, this is from 10.04 but might still work http://ubuntuguide.net/howto-change-plymouth-themes-initial-splash-screen-in-ubuntu-10-04
[15:59] <MonkeyDust> Spikes  no
[15:59] <Spikes> MonkeyDust, damn, any ideas why it keeps asking for it?
[15:59] <somsip> Spikes: depends if you've set up gnome-keyring to remmeber it
[16:00] <pedrosans> clear
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> Spikes  it should be stored somewhere, known_hosts or so
[16:00] <gwb_> Hi -- Sometimes when I'm using ubuntu 11.10, a friend wants to check email.  I let her use the guest account.  at that point, two users are logged in (me and guest).  Also, CPU util. goes crazy, concentrated in Xorg.  Is this a bug or something I have to live with?
[16:00] <newnoise> but can i use parted to resize the partition without losing the data?
[16:01] <Spikes> MonkeyDust, ok, thanks
[16:01] <zykotick9> newnoise, there is always a risk resizing partitions - i'd have a backup if i where you
[16:01] <Juser23> hi
[16:01] <Spikes> somasin, i don't think i did
[16:01] <scriptwarlock> Ghost1227, try this trick http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/patched-notifyosd-updates-option-to.html
[16:01] <Spikes> somasin, it's a server, after all
[16:01] <newnoise> zykotick9: i did a backup. but theoretically if everything goes well parted resizes without losing data, correct?
[16:02] <zykotick9> newnoise, that's the plan ;)
[16:02] <somsip> Spikes: I have previously seen people who have problems gettin keyring to startup properly. Someone sent me a webpage recently with some interesting info on it...
[16:02] <RaTTuS|BIG> newnoise - best bet really - make a backup of all your data elsewhere - then fiddle as your going to trash your partition table anyway -
[16:02] <auronandace> gwb_: don't you have to log out for your friend to login as guest
[16:02] <auronandace> ?
[16:03] <newnoise> I'm scared ...
[16:04] <tapas> on a system with automatic logon, how do you restart the user session?
[16:04] <tapas> i trief sudo stop gdm && sudo start gdm
[16:04] <tapas> but that doesnät really work
[16:04] <tapas> desktop doesnt show
[16:04] <tapas> so i have no X atm to check the web :(
[16:05] <auronandace> tapas: are you using 11.10?
[16:05] <tapas> i think its 11.04
[16:05] <tapas> let me check (not my computer)
[16:05] <tapas> yep
[16:05] <tapas>  /etc/issue says 11.04
[16:06] <idefix> can you receive dutch tv with linux?
[16:06] <newnoise> well I cant use parted anyway as my drives use some incompatible features
[16:06] <MonkeyDust> idefix  wij zitten ook op #ubuntu-nl
[16:06] <newnoise> jeeez. a whole working day blown for like nothing up to now ...
[16:07] <gwb_> auronandace: nope
[16:07] <Ghost1227> scriptwarlock: nope... and i actually want to change the monitor it's displayed on
[16:07] <Ghost1227> good try though
[16:07] <flourish> hi, quick question about system beep. now i cannot disable system beep. When i do shutdown -h xxx, it beeps very minute
[16:08] <flourish> modprobe -r pcspkr doesn't work
[16:08] <gwb_> auronandace: just click on my name and choose the guest account from the dropdown
[16:08] <tapas> aah, sudo killall Xorg did the trick
[16:08] <auronandace> gwb_: oh, fast user switching
[16:09] <newnoise> can anyone guide me through repartitioning my server. Im lost
[16:09] <alteregod> hi
[16:09] <alteregod> i need those file rtl8168f-1.fw - where can i get them?
[16:09] <gwb_> auronandace: yep, but slower performance (much slower)
[16:10] <leotr> hi! when i select "restart" in unity system menu it's not restarted but throws me to user selection screen. What can cause that?
[16:10] <tapas> it seems playing with the compiz setttings manager destroyed the new gnome shell
[16:10] <tapas> classic mode works..
[16:11] <puff> I've been using skype chat on this windows machine to chat with people at work.  Is it possible to chat via linux?
[16:11] <puff> I'm already using empathy with googletalk for non-work stuff...
[16:12] <johnm> puff: there is a skype client for linux.
[16:12] <auronandace> !skype | puff
[16:12] <puff> Cool.
[16:12] <scriptwarlock> Ghost1227, oh i thought it was the notify location
[16:15] <Spikes> somsip, fixed the proble. If you're interested, apparently my ssh-agent was not bahaving as it's supposed to , so i had to use command 'exec ssh-agent bash' and then ssh-add to add passphrase so it'll be used automatically while sshing
[16:16] <tjader> How can I make it so that non-admin users can connect to networks?
[16:16] <tjader> In 11.10 it always tries to save the network configuration system-wide, therefore requiring admin credentials
[16:16] <tjader> In 11.04 and before it saved the configuration for the current user only by default, that was much better
[16:19] <bugweed> after installing sun java 6, how do i make sure it is running and not open jdk
[16:19] <bugweed> second, how do i remove open jdk completely
[16:20] <snikker> hi i've got nvidia and intel graphics card on my notebook. how can i use nvidia card with full 3d support?
[16:21] <puff> Hm, okay, so I followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype and added the canonical partners repo, "sudo aptitude search skype" shows the skype package...
[16:21] <newnoise> can anyone explain my what resize2fs does exactly? it just changes the filesystem-size, but not the partition size, correct?
[16:21] <puff> ... but "sudo aptitude install skype" gets:  Couldn't find package "skype".  However, the following packages contain "skype" in their name: pidgin-skype pidgin-skype pidgin-skype-dbg pidgin-skype-dbg skype skype4pidgin skype4pidgin
[16:21] <dtigue> snikker: i would disable the onboard video in the bios first
[16:21] <puff> And I see skype right in the middle of that list...
[16:22] <tjader> newnoise: yes
[16:22] <dtigue> snikker: then reboot and run additional drivers to install the nvidia drivers
[16:22] <snikker> dtigue: i can't disable the onboard in the bios, no option available
[16:22] <tjader> You have to adjust the partition size accordingly before/later if you are growing/shrinking.
[16:24] <gaurav_sood91> hello all
[16:24] <__vincent> How would I install grub to the MBR of a new hard disk?
[16:24] <KittyBunny> anyway.....................................
[16:24] <KittyBunny> Hi!
[16:24] <__vincent> Grub is already installed on the disk, i just need to put it in MBR
[16:24] <KittyBunny> OUCh
[16:24] <__vincent> i cant find the exact command
[16:24] <KittyBunny> I wanted to thank him. :(
[16:25] <gaurav_sood91> i am using ubuntu oneric on an amd radeon hd 6470m card and i am unable to successfully install it. i tried #ati but they were unhelpful there. any ideas on how to accomplish that. also, is my card compatible with gnome-shell?
[16:25] <DaSkySkyLineB> does anyone know how i can find the anonops server again?? sry that i ask but i was in the hospital for 3 weeks and now i can't find it :/
[16:25] <gaurav_sood91> i run gnome-shell on fallback mode
[16:25] <newnoise> tjader: ok. how do I do this?
[16:25] <gaurav_sood91> what i did to install the driver was to enable the driver from additional drivers. but i get an error when i run fglrxinfo
[16:26] <KittyBunny> DaSkySkyLineB: Offtopic but feel free to PM me and i'll tell you where it is there. :)
[16:26] <dtigue> snikker: then just only use the nvidia port and run additional drivers
[16:26] <archenom> mmm nvidia drivers
[16:27] <snikker> dtigue: i've aleady installed nvidia drives from repo, but doesn't work
[16:27] <snikker> *drivers
[16:27] <Ghost1227> scriptwarlock: what you sent should allow adjusting location, but only within the set screen
[16:27] <Ghost1227> for me it's displaying on the wrong monitor altogether
[16:29] <__vincent> how do i know my my harddisk + boot partition number is grub?
[16:29] <dtigue> snikker: what doesn't work ?
[16:29] <__vincent> mine is /dev/sdb1 the boot partition
[16:29] <barcef> Is there any way to mute the speakers on my laptop when i plug in my headphones? I have to keep going into the sound preferences and changing the audio output.
[16:30] <gaurav_sood91> barcef: should they not automatically get muted? this is actually what happens in mine
[16:30] <snikker> dtigue: i don't have 3d support and glx...
[16:30] <Tech-1> just installed DEVEDE and it quits after 2 mins, is there something missing ?
[16:31] <barcef> gaurav_sood91,  There is no fix for this? When I boot into windows they mute automatically when I plug in my headphones. In ubuntu they don't. There has to be CONF file somewhere I can edit this behaviour.
[16:32] <gaurav_sood91> barcef: i dont know. let me check if there is, cos i did not have to change anything and they automatically get muted
[16:33] <gwb_> Hi -- Sometimes when I'm using ubuntu 11.10, a friend wants to check email.  I let her use the guest account.  at that point, two users are logged in (me and guest).  Also, CPU util. goes crazy, concentrated in Xorg.  Is this a bug or something I have to live with?
[16:33] <zykotick9> Tech-1, when you say "quits" do you mean the program crashes?  If so, try starting devede from a terminal to see if you get any useful output.
[16:34] <KittyBunny> k
[16:34] <Tech-1> zykotick9-  no, it finalizes like its done, but only gives 2 mins of iso
[16:34] <zykotick9> !tab > Tech-1
[16:35] <zykotick9> Tech-1, sorry I don't have any suggestions then.  I haven't used devede in quite a while.  Good luck.
[16:35] <Tech-1> why give be the ubotto mssg, i tab all the time
[16:36] <aar> Hi, how can I stop someone from resetting my root password by booting in rescue mode (when they have physical access to the computer)?
[16:36] <Tech-1> that made no sense
[16:36] <DaGeek247> eir is a bot, why is he allowed here?
[16:36] <zykotick9> Tech-1, you tried "zykotick9-" which is NOT my nick - so i didn't get highlighted, wouldn't happen if you used TAB
[16:36] <Tech-1> o ic
[16:36] <DJones> aar: You may be able to disable usb & cd booting in bios and then set a password on the bios to somebody re-enabling them
[16:37] <Tech-1> the - is what i use on all the tabs i tab
[16:37] <Tech-1> instead of a ,
[16:37] <DJones> *so somebody can't reanable
[16:37] <genii-around> aar: Consider uncommenting #GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY="true" in /etc/default/grub   and updating grub. Then you need to boot from livecd
[16:37] <zykotick9> Tech-1, xchat isn't smart enough to see it as the proper nick
[16:37] <aar> DJones, genii-around, thank you
[16:38] <Tech-1> im on xchat and never had any issues,
[16:38] <genii-around> aar: You're welcome
[16:38] <zykotick9> Tech-1- did that highlight you?
[16:38] <Tech-1> i c now
[16:38] <Tech-1> ok
[16:39] <ringberar> hey could someone help me with a hard drive partition problem?
[16:39] <Tech-1> zykotick9,
[16:39] <ringberar> it would be much appreciated
[16:39] <Tech-1> better ?
[16:39] <zykotick9> Tech-1, much better ;)
[16:40] <Tech-1> k
[16:40] <ringberar> is there any way you guys could point me in the right direction to get some help?
[16:40] <dury> hi there channel :)
[16:41] <Tech-1> zykotick9,  before i go, can i change mencoder to ffmpeg in devede ?
[16:41] <zykotick9> Tech-1, no idea?
[16:41] <Tech-1> heh]
[16:41] <Tech-1> ok
[16:41] <dury> is it worth to upgrade to 11.04
[16:41] <alazare619> !best bot
[16:42] <alazare619> !bestbot
[16:42] <zykotick9> ringberar, could you ask a more specific question?  perhaps someone can help you but "hd partition problem" is very broad.
[16:42] <ringberar> i understand
[16:42] <ringberar> well
[16:42] <Tech-1> seems like faster these linux oss;s spit sht out, its getting to be like american made cars, 4 wheels and half a motor.
[16:43] <ringberar> im not EXTREMELY experienced with using linux and i want to install windows 7 as a seperate os on my system
[16:43] <ringberar> when i try to install it from the cd rom boot
[16:43] <ringberar> it says i need an ntsc partition
[16:43] <ringberar> i have no idea how to make that nor anything to do with partitions on a linux system
[16:43] <ringberar> i only know how to on win
[16:43] <dury> sorry I'm to 11.10
[16:43] <zykotick9> ringberar, it's NTFS BTW ;)
[16:44] <ringberar> thanks :l
[16:44] <nbf> does anyone have any good documentation on making Ubuntu 11.10 less horribad
[16:44] <dury> is it worth to upgrade to 11.10?
[16:44] <nbf> dury: god no
[16:44] <Tech-1> lol
[16:44]  * Tech-1 snickers
[16:44] <zykotick9> ringberar, assuming your current linux install takes your entire disk, you'd need to resize it to leave blank space for Windows to install into.  gparted from a LiveCD might help.  Good luck.
[16:45] <neronin> for 24 hours now i have tried to understand why this happens: When i log on to my ubuntu machine via ssh, the connection from that machine to my router brakes (both machines are behind the same router). I have a third ubuntu machine, with, as far as i can see, identical settings, with which i have no problems. Can any one shed some light on this?
[16:45] <Lasers> nbf: Using Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS or different distros. :)
[16:45] <Tech-1> ubuntu better straighten up or they will soon be out of the ball park
[16:45] <dury> nbf: what u mean?
[16:45] <nbf> dury: the desktop in 11.10 is completely different
[16:45] <nbf> and it's different in a bad way
[16:45] <nbf> if you mean server, it might be worth it if you want newer packages
[16:45] <Barbarian> !nounity | nbf
[16:46] <Pumpkin-> being an xfce user has made all this pain kinda easy to avoid. I'm not saying that is a solution for you, but it works for me.
[16:46] <dury> nbf: I guess you can put it in a classic gnome desktop
[16:47] <zykotick9> Tech-1, check Distrowatches' 7 day popularity - Ubuntu is plummeting, currently 5th most popular
[16:47] <dury> nbf: there must be that choice
[16:47] <Tech-1> ya, i was gonna say that, but some diehards may not have liked it
[16:48] <Tech-1> but its the truth'
[16:48] <bakhtiyor> hi. I have iptables with a rule -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 3306 -j DROP
[16:48] <Barbarian> To be honest, I think the new interface is a lot easier for newbies to use.
[16:48] <Tech-1> im almost considering going back to gentoo
[16:48] <bakhtiyor> I need to allow connection to 3306 from localhost
[16:48] <bakhtiyor> how do I do that_
[16:49] <eukreign> is there a way to get the windows aero snap in unity 2d?
[16:49] <harovali1> hi, a blackout left ubuntu system at booting, like this: http://bpaste.net/show/20294/ , how can I resolve this ?
[16:49] <Tech-1> you cant put a cell phone on a desktop and say  "here it is new and improved"
[16:49] <AdvoWork> if i have /var/www/dir/dir/images/NEWcompleted -> /home/NEWcompleted   what is the original source of the files?
[16:52] <zykotick9> harovali1, assuming no changes where made prior to the power loss - i'd boot a livecd and try to fsck your partitions.  Grub isn't seeing a / partition, is my interpretation of your pastebin.
[16:52] <harovali1> zykotick9: thanks
[16:53] <nbf> bakhtiyor: one way would be to add a -J ACCEPT in before the DROP rule but only for localhost
[16:53] <white_magic> is there some app in ubuntu which sets up Windows-like keyboard shortcuts? I'd just rather not do this myself
[16:53] <bakhtiyor> nbf: could you pls tell me how
[16:54] <bakhtiyor> sudo iptables -A INPUT -s localhost -d localhost -p TCP -dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
[16:54] <bakhtiyor> i am doing that but it says error
[16:55] <Wi1d> --dport
[17:01] <nbf> bakhtiyor: you need to insert it before the other rule
[17:01] <nbf> -A appends the rule to the end
[17:01] <nbf> -I 1 puts the rule in the first spot in the table
[17:02] <yacc> Any hints how to install Ubuntu onto an USB Flash stick best?
[17:02] <MonkeyDust> unetbootin
[17:03] <om26er> yacc, you want to install ubuntu on it?
[17:03] <bakhtiyor> nbf: but  sudo iptables -A INPUT -s localhost -d localhost -p TCP -dport 3306 -j ACCEPT giving error and not letting me to add this rule
[17:03] <RaTTuS|BIG> yacc http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ if you have windows
[17:03] <om26er> yacc, or want to make it bootable?
[17:04] <yacc> om26er, yeah, basically my "laptop-on-a-stick" workplace => >90% places were I might end up away from the office have a PC, and in the worst case, I do have an Acer One (the one with the really sad SSD inside) that I can use for the seldom cases that I'm somewhere without a PC.
[17:05] <yacc> RaTTuS|BIG, well, I've got explicitely no Windows, I need to "borrow" a Windows Box for any Windows-only stuff :)
[17:05] <om26er> yacc, just install on it as a normal drive
[17:06] <yacc> om26er, grub installed to the mbr of the USB stick, that's it? And how to handle hardware autodetection?
[17:06] <om26er> yacc, it should just work
[17:07] <om26er> yacc, you must have a faster drive ;)
[17:07] <zykotick9> yacc, don't expect "great" performance from a USB install
[17:09] <sledges> hello
[17:09] <yof> hi
[17:09] <yof> someone there?
[17:09] <dury> nbf: are u there?
[17:10] <RaTTuS|BIG> yacc - I've got ubuntu runing on an 8GB pendrive - I've formatter as ext2 with a few options to hepl the speed - also see putting /tmp on a ram disk
[17:11] <RaTTuS|BIG> [I'veually had it running OK on  a 4GB drive ]
[17:11] <sledges> Can I just install Ubuntu 11.10 to USB Stick instead of a hardrive, choose /dev/sdb for GRUB and hope it will work? I tried LiveLinux with Persistence, but after having activated restricted drivers for my wi-fi, system could no longer boot normally after restart. Thanks!
[17:11] <RaTTuS|BIG> sledges yes
[17:11] <zykotick9> RaTTuS|BIG, 4GB isn't even recommended HD size for modern Ubuntu installs - it's too small
[17:12] <RaTTuS|BIG> zykotick9 - you can do it but you ahve to trim - 8GB is ok though
[17:12] <ezee> i just installed ubuntu server 11.10, and open ssh...how do i check to see if  open ssh is running?
[17:12] <RaTTuS|BIG> zykotick9 I've got 11.04 running on an eeepc 701
[17:12] <sledges> RaTTuS|BIG: thanks, in the failed LiveLinux case I tried it with Linux Mint (so it was an Ubuntu 11.04 fork)
[17:13] <RaTTuS|BIG> ezee ssh localhost
[17:13] <newnoise> so after all i managed to shrink the size of one of my partitions in a software raid 1
[17:13] <zykotick9> RaTTuS|BIG, lol - i've owned 3 eeepc 701s - i know how cramped 4GB is ;)
[17:13] <newnoise> now i want to create a new partition with the new unused space
[17:13] <newnoise> can anyone tell me how to do that
[17:13] <RaTTuS|BIG> zykotick9 ;-P
[17:14] <zykotick9> newnoise, so long as it's blank space, i think the windows installer should be able to handle it
[17:14] <ayman> hello
[17:15] <newnoise> zykotick9: well its on a remote server, so i have to use linux terminal commands
[17:15] <RaTTuS|BIG> newnoise - sudo fdisk /dev/sda ,- or whatever it is
[17:15] <zykotick9> newnoise, for making an NTFS partition?  good luck.
[17:15] <newnoise> I dont want no NTFS partition
[17:16] <zykotick9> newnoise, i thought you wanted to install windows - sorry, perhaps i'm confusing you with someone else.  sorry.
[17:16] <newnoise> RaTTuS|BIG: the problem is that it is a raid, when I use fdisk /dev/md it says "unable to open"
[17:16] <mattalexx> How can I set up samba server so that it uses system logins instead of its own login database?
[17:16] <newnoise> zykotick9: no problem ;)
[17:17] <flea> anyone available to help with midi (usb midi) setup?  TIA - i am exhausted from contradictory search results

[17:23] <letmethink> irc.enigmagroup.org:6667
[17:23] <luis_> Running 11.04 can anyone tell me the advantages of upgrading to 11.10?
[17:24] <Goollash> a little better on the interface side
[17:24] <llutz_> luis_: do you miss something? if not, stay with 11.04
[17:24] <Goollash> less buggy
[17:25] <dragomir> hi everyone - i would like to know how to set docky moved up above the bottom panel. ubuntu 10.04
[17:25] <Goollash> of course, I wouldn't know as much as I'd like to—I can't get the darn thing working on my Macbook air 4-2
[17:25] <luis_> llutz: don't miss anything But being on this channel I sure have noticed people having a lot of problems with 11.10
[17:27] <llutz_> luis_: people always have trouble after upgrading. but simple thing: if your system works and you don't miss anything then don't touch it.
[17:27] <skpl> ew burnt toast
[17:27] <luis_> llutz: very true Thaks
[17:28] <newnoise> how can i add a partition into a raid 1 setup (mdadm)
[17:29] <duelle> Hi there, since about a week i'm having serious problems with hard crashes of my ubuntu 11.10. kern.log says "NVRM: Xid (0000:01:00): 31, Ch 00000013, engmask 00000120, intr 10000000". I also had problems with flash since upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10

[17:32] <geoffmcc> philipballew_: kind of like a hooker with a heart of gold
[17:32] <philipballew_> bekks, alright.  so If i ssh into my yserver I would still need to open ports correct?
[17:32] <llutz> ezee: sudo apt-get install resolvconf, then add a line"dns-nameservers <IP_ADDRESS>"   or whatever dns you want to your interfaces-files
[17:32] <philipballew_> geoffmcc, True, most on here are saying sexual things
[17:33] <NO_SOPA> please, sign this petition http://act2.freepress.net/sign/resolution_of_disapproval/

[17:44] <adi11> hi. why is it that i boot on my gnu/linux os successfully once every two times? anyone can help.. thanks
[17:45] <RobinJ> help! this has killed my X server it seems! http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/24670/choose-at-grub-menu-whether-nvidia-driver-should-be-used/24671#24671
[17:45] <Goollash> @ adi11: is it exactly every other time or just about 50%?
[17:46] <adi11> after grub selection it goes on and tries to load ubuntu. but it fails every two times
[17:46] <adi11> Gollash : once in two.
[17:47] <adi11> after it fails it goes in initramfs. after that only ctrl +alt+del
[17:47]  * AKQJ10 porra de equipe
[17:49] <adi11> than i restart and it loads the os but it seems that some hangs are there too.
[17:50] <Goollash> sorry in lecture hold on
[17:57] <CaptainPlanet> So is this the technical support channel or the off-topic/open discussion channel?
[17:58] <igetroot> CaptainPlanet, hard to tell all ive seen is alot of joins-parts lol
[17:58] <CaptainPlanet> Haha.
[17:58] <igetroot> theres few other channels too, ubuntu-devel ubuntu-hardened ubuntu-one
[17:58] <igetroot> etc
[17:59] <trijntje> Hi all, i'm trying to get my laptop to use apt-cacher on local network, but I keep getting timeout errors. What can I do to fix this?
[17:59] <CaptainPlanet> Hmmm... I just installed X-Chat, so I'm new to the program. Seems easy though.
[18:00] <CaptainPlanet> apt-cacher? hmmm.... I'm not too familiar with that. Is it like apt-get?
[18:00] <lotuspsychje> im looking for an xvidcap equivalent
[18:01] <nispaur> hi
[18:01] <nispaur> It's an english channel here, right ?
[18:01] <trijntje> CaptainPlanet: no, its a caching server for debian packages, so when you have multiple ubuntu machines on the network you only have to download updates once
[18:01] <trijntje> nispaur: yes
[18:01] <nispaur> ok, thanks trijntje
[18:01] <CaptainPlanet> Ahh, I see.
[18:03] <CaptainPlanet> Anybody know a good PPA for games? I'm looking for MMORPG's to play.
[18:03] <jutnux> I dislike pre-12 year olds on the Ubuntu facebook :'(
[18:04] <jutnux> CaptainPlanet, Have you tried Googling? I'd help but I'm no games person (other than Xbox).
[18:04] <saymoo> i dislike ubuntu for being on facebook :P
[18:04] <lorddelta> CaptainPlanet: Games, on linux? Don't you know you you're on the wrong OS? :P
[18:04] <jutnux> saymoo, Me too. I have them on G+ but you can't wall psot.
[18:04] <jutnux> lorddelta, There are games.
[18:04] <saymoo> lorddelta: Don´t you know you have wine?
[18:05] <saymoo> :P
[18:05] <lorddelta> CaptainLinux: Though I found a link buried in my bookmarks the other day with some games for linux in it.
[18:05] <CaptainPlanet> Yeah, I have.  I get really specific with Google's search, and it still gives me crappy links. =/
[18:05] <lorddelta> saymoo: haha yes, doesn't work with everything.
[18:05] <jutnux> CaptainPlanet, Works fine for me!
[18:05] <jutnux> Chrome is amazing too.
[18:05] <CaptainPlanet> Hahaha! That is funny, lorddelta.
[18:06] <CaptainPlanet> I've got Wine, it's just that I don't have any games on Windows. And I kinda shrunk Windows down a little too much. Lol
[18:06] <lorddelta> Indeed. But, still, I bet you won't find Skyrim running on *nix for a couple years to come....
[18:06] <lotuspsychje> whats a good flv stream recorder for ubuntu
[18:08] <lorddelta> And its not that Linux is incapable of running skyrim. Just that it really is still the wrong os for "serious" gamers.
[18:08] <lorddelta> Me, I play flash games. :P
[18:08] <lotuspsychje> lol
[18:10] <CaptainPlanet> I use Jolicloud for regular use, but Ubuntu when I want to do a lot of stuffs.
[18:10] <CaptainPlanet> Like play Final Fantasy 7. ^^,
[18:11] <lokidervish> grr i need a new laptop bag - any suggestions? (i know off topic)

[18:13] <Jonii> Hey, I'd like to use right from startup emacs on my netbook. The problem is, I also want to keep as much of the system password-protected as possible. How do I resolve this conflict, any tips?
[18:13] <lokidervish> failsauce floodbot
[18:14] <Jonii> I thought if I could make a new user that I could log in instantly that only could access emacs+necessary files
[18:14] <Jonii> Without password needed for login
[18:14] <CaptainPlanet> Hmmm...... I can't seem to find the channel info.
[18:15] <CaptainPlanet> Oh whoops. Didn't read the top.
[18:16] <starsinmypockets> I'm trying to configure ssh to use multiple public keys... ssh-add /path/to/mykey_rsa seems to fail.... anyone point me at the proper config file?
[18:19] <John> Can someone please help with my wireless connection: I am missing the firmware for  dell inspiron 1750 for wireless
[18:20] <CaptainPlanet> Crud.  I can't get my launch bar and menu bar to show.  =/   John, have you tried looking in Synaptic to find the drivers n' software for your Dell in there?
[18:21] <CaptainPlanet> There's always something in Synaptic that I find helpful.
[18:21] <John> What is synaptic
[18:22] <CaptainPlanet> Synaptic Package Manager
[18:22] <SadlyMistaken> synaptic is the application to look for programs to install or uninstall
[18:22] <Gnea> !synaptic
[18:22] <geoffmcc> John: have you gone into additional drivers and see if all you have to do is activate it?
[18:22] <CaptainPlanet> if you don't have it, get it from the Ubuntu Software Center.
[18:22] <danileigh79> Is there a specific way to change my sudo password or is it associated with my login password?
[18:22] <CaptainPlanet> Login password I believe.
[18:22] <CaptainPlanet> Assuming your the administrator, of course.
[18:23] <John> I have been into additional drivers but nothing comes up
[18:23] <rumpe1> danileigh79, same thing
[18:23] <danileigh79> rumpe1: thx
[18:24] <iceroot> danileigh79: its your user-password
[18:24] <danileigh79> If someone hacked my windows partition, they should not be able to see anything about Ubuntu, right?
[18:24] <CaptainPlanet> Keep in mind that some proprietary hardware/drivers isn't available for Linux.
[18:24] <John> I am downloading the synaptic package manager. WHat is the next step please
[18:25] <iceroot> danileigh79: if you are using ext3/4 drivers on windows, you can access the ubuntu-partitions
