[00:00] <lord_hypnos> hey i guess i messed up the superblock of my externel drive how do i fix it?
[00:00] <donny> hi all, what gstreamer plugins package has mp3?
[00:00] <undecim> xubuntu: Are you using KDE then?
[00:01] <vallhalla81> !life
[00:01] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, it almost worked out. Now I at least get the grub menu, which means the grub got installed correctly, but when I try to run any kernel it says error: file not found also when I pick my WinXp boot the whole thing freezes and I have to restart.
[00:01] <xubuntu> hmm dont think so gnome
[00:02] <lord_hypnos> hey i guess i messed up the superblock of my externel drive how do i fix it?
[00:02] <xubuntu> not sure tho
[00:02] <nighteagle> Hi
[00:03] <nighteagle> How can i change the font size, on empathy chat window?
[00:03] <undecim> Jarxes: Try booting to the Live CD and chrooting to your hard drive. From there you can run "sudo update-grub" and that should fix your config file.
[00:03] <undecim> Jarxes: Let me find a link to a simple chroot tutorial...
[00:03] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, trying...
[00:03] <xubuntu> undesim: not sure
[00:03] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, waiting...
[00:03] <DevilsArms> Evening all.
[00:03] <greg__> would this be an appropriate forum to ask a question about transmission in ubuntu?
[00:04] <DevilsArms> Got what I would call an complex question involving X11
[00:04] <br0kenarr0w> greg__, #transmission
[00:05] <DevilsArms> I'm attempting to set the Modeline's but i'm a tad lost on what I need to do
[00:05] <git__> ACPI was causing a lot of the problem i've experienced when trying to copy large data sets to USB hard drive
[00:05] <git__> every so often, my laptop would just freeze
[00:05] <nighteagle> and for Empathy, is there a specific irc?
[00:06] <DevilsArms> My TV doesn't support 1:1 HDMI so i'm having to use Modelines on my Nvidia ION but not sure what I need to set where etc.
[00:06] <xubuntu> i gettin my shared folder to my mac pro also
[00:06] <nighteagle> i just want to know how to change the font size, in the chat window
[00:06] <Pelo> nighteagle, xchat ? check in settings, under pref , somewhere in there
[00:07] <frenzy_usa> Anyone using QuickBooks Pro 2009 in VirtualBox?
[00:07] <nighteagle> Pelo, no, Empathy
[00:07] <Pelo> nighteagle, checking in the prefs is still a good idea, nut sure where they are located however
[00:08] <initmass> How do I install Koffice 2 or Krita 2 in Ubuntu 9.10?
[00:08] <nighteagle> Pelo, i searched, but not found, thank you for the answer
[00:08] <greg__> has anyone set up the web interface for transmission i cant get it to work
[00:08] <undecim> Jarxes: Okay, couldn't find a simple one like i was looking for, so I typed up one real quick: http://paste.ubuntu.com/355259/
[00:08] <nighteagle> initmass, Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[00:08] <yeason> greg__: what's it doing?
[00:09] <greg__> yeason its asking me to authinticate.. i dont want to
[00:09] <initmass> nighteagle, I'm using Ubuntu
[00:09] <Pelo> nighteagle, try this,  check in your /home folder for a hiden folder for empathy,  look for a .conf file , you might be able to change it in there
[00:09] <nighteagle> initmass, what's the version in the repositories?
[00:09] <yeason> greg__: when you set it up did you uncheck "use authentication"?
[00:10] <greg__> yes
[00:10] <nighteagle> Pelo, thank you very much, i'm going to try this
[00:11] <greg__> yeason it says the server localhost:90991 at Transmission requires a username and password.
[00:11] <initmass> nighteagle, Version: 1:1.6.3-7ubuntu10
[00:11] <Goliath>  is anyone member of theplace.bz?
[00:12] <initmass> nighteagle, version 2 is out since long ago
[00:12] <undecim> initmass: take a look at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/koffice-2
[00:12] <nighteagle> initmass, i think that the better to do, is to wait that they'll be available, on the repo.
[00:12] <yeason> greg__: I understand, I'm trying to think of what might be causing the problem and what you can do to fix it. When you connect have you tried using <IP_ADDRESS> instead of localhost, I've seen this make or break some things
[00:13] <initmass> undecim, I've been there but it seems like it's the whole Koffice suite. I only want Krita 2
[00:13] <greg__> yeason ill try that real quick
[00:13] <initmass> nighteagle, feels pity when it's out
[00:14] <ae86-drifter> anyone know why ssh is fine, very responsive, but sshfs is lagging badly, this is over WAN
[00:14] <Jarxes> undecim: thanks a lot for the hassle. can you tell me what is the /mnt/ folder? when I open nautilus and go to root it doesn't display the folder, I have to type it in to get in or get there from terminal. It's just me being inquisitive....
[00:14] <greg__> yeason it still asks for localhost
[00:14] <greg__> or says localhost rather
[00:14] <undecim> Jarxes: The mnt folder is just a general place for the user to mount media manually.
[00:14] <TheMozart> is Ubuntu 10.4 out yet?
[00:15] <Pici> TheMozart: Since its not April yet. no.
[00:15] <Pici> TheMozart: The Ubuntu release numbers are YEAR.MONTH
[00:15] <TheMozart> Pici: so in April 2010?
[00:15] <ae86-drifter> TheMozart, omg uleh log into the website
[00:15] <TheMozart> Pici: wow, I didnt know that or realise that.. thanks
[00:15] <git__> 30 min to tar a 15.7GB filesystem
[00:15] <TheMozart> ae86-drifter: chill dude... only asking.
[00:16] <git__> does that sound about right?
[00:16] <yeason> greg__: ok, so you've tried both "http://<IP_ADDRESS>:9091" and "http://localhost:9091"
[00:16] <Jarxes> undecim: sure thanks (p.s. correction: I can see it from nautilus now. I don't know why I couldn't before)
[00:16]  * lwieise87 is away: Gone away for now
[00:16] <hari_> hi
[00:16] <jrib> !away > lwieise87
[00:16] <hari_> i have  PROBLEM
[00:16] <genii> git__: That actually sounds fast
[00:16] <greg__> yeason i did.. ill try again
[00:16] <undecim> Jarxes: Usually, on a real system (i.e. not a livecd), there will be subfolders inside of /mnt/ if you mount media manually a lot, but since it's not really used by anything else, it's really convenient to just use directly when you need a quick chroot. I think the Ubuntu installer even uses it to mount the drive it is installing to.
[00:16] <ae86-drifter> hari_, i have probrem too we all have a probrem
[00:16] <git__> genii, i didn't do any compression
[00:16] <Richturd> can someone help me to get my computer to work?
[00:17] <Richturd> I am trying to get my built in Webcam to work with my netbook remix
[00:17] <DevilsArms> I ***ing hate overscan and X11
[00:17] <git__> i think ACPI is the culprit for my Ubuntu 9.10 on nw8440 to crash when i put it in suspend mode or when i leave my laptop on for a lengthy backup
[00:17] <yeason> greg__: ok, just double checking that you'd given both a shot. I'm not sure that it will do much but I'd try enabling it, see if you can connect at all using the username and password you enter. If that works try disabling it again and see if it works then. If not try restarting the program.
[00:17] <DBCOOPA> how do you compile alsamixer
[00:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Yo. My server ran out of diskspace, and then strange stuff started to happen. I think it got into some read only mode or something becuase I could not do anything. I couldn't connect via ftp or any other mean. Not even connect via putty. However I already had putty connected from before it got full and I tried to send a reboot command. Then it wend down and didn't start up. When I try to log...
[00:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> ...in on the machine I get this message: "cannot execute /bin/bash permission denied". What can I do?
[00:18] <Loq844> Hello
[00:18] <Pelo> Richturd, you might have better luck looking up your netbook model in www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:18] <undecim> initmass: Try krita-kde4
[00:18]  * MrDudle brb
[00:18] <Jarxes> undecim: understood, thanks
[00:19] <xubuntu> is it realy need for install all updates one xubuntu_
[00:19] <Pelo> later folks
[00:19] <sam9> I am trying to dual boot ubuntu with win7 on 2 seperat SATA drives. Does it matter which SATA port i plug the drives in?
[00:19] <MarkStoddart> sam9 what RAID?
[00:20] <sam9> Mark: No raid just normal setup
[00:20] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: If you can get a keyboard and monitor on your server, you can use a livecd to make some space on the hard drive.
[00:20] <TheMozart> Pici: thanks for that.
[00:20] <MarkStoddart> sam9: No, note that you'll need to reinstall grub though (unless they changed this in windows 7)
[00:20] <initmass> undecim, i'll try that. thank you
[00:21] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: yeah, I am at it right now with a keyb and monitor, but making space wont help because I already did that when the problem first arose before I tried the reboot command
[00:21] <Hilikus> where am i supposed to configure samba so that every update doesnt complain about my smb.conf having local changes? it's really annoying. i want to disable everything in [printers], use user authentication, etc, but every change i made creates a problem in the update where the installer wants to revert it to a dist version
[00:21] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: You are using a LiveCD right now?
[00:21] <sam9> Mark: Thanks. I will try that. Because I already had win7 installed so I installed linux on its own SATA drive. But the only way i can get it to boot is what ever drive is plugged into SATA port 0
[00:21] <funkycat90210> vmware player is complaining that it cannot find the kernel headers, I've tried everything, how can I get the kernel headers it likes?
[00:22] <MarkStoddart> sam9 this is because of the windows boot loader ignores linux operating systems
[00:22] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: No, I just booted it up normally and got to the login prompt. I am not sure I have a live CD arount atm
[00:22] <MarkStoddart> install grub on the windows machine to see both when both harddrives are connected.
[00:23] <sam9> Mark: thanks will try that now. Appreciate  your help
[00:23] <undecim> Well, if you can't get a LiveCD, you can alway boot into recovery mode. Since 5% of the hard drive space is reserved to the root user (in case stuff like this happens), you should be able to log in there and make space.
[00:23] <funkycat90210> how do i generate the linux-headers-x.y.z-generic dir?
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> no problem. All part of the community :)
[00:23] <Jarxes> undecim: by "First, mount root to /mnt/" do you mean "sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /mnt" in my case?
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> funkycat90210 you mean uname -a?
[00:23] <cg> Has anyone managed to get line-in going for an onboard sound card, to play straight through speakers without a delay? tried pulseaudio's loopback module but it has a 1-2 second delay :(  thanks.
[00:23] <undecim> Jarxes: Yes.
[00:23] <MarkStoddart> linux-headers-`uname -a`
[00:24] <sulio> Is there a good ebook reader for Ubuntu?
[00:24] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Okay, I will try that, but I am pretty sure i freed up like 2 gig when before I sent the reboot command. ARe you sure it will help?
[00:24] <TheMozart> Pici: have you always know that?
[00:24] <funkycat90210> MarkStoddart, i mean generate the directory /usr/src/linux-headers-*
[00:24] <undecim> Jarxes: and if you have any other partitions separated, you may need to mount those too.
[00:24] <Pici> TheMozart: About the version numbers? For quite a long time.  But don't worry, we get the question a lot.
[00:24] <funkycat90210> err nvm i figured it out
[00:24] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: How did you free up 2GB?
[00:24] <hari_> I know how to solve a problem with my printer. when commanded to print the printing stopped, tried again and then I saw a message saying "CUPS server error"
[00:24] <MarkStoddart> ok :)
[00:24] <TheMozart> Pici:  yeah
[00:25] <MarkStoddart> sulio, pdf ebooks?
[00:25] <TheMozart> Pici: what color is my text on screen? Can you see what I type?
[00:25] <MarkStoddart> sulio, whats wrong with evince?
[00:25] <Jarxes> undecim: what do you mean by "other partitions separated"?
[00:25] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I had the putty shell connected while it ran out of space and then before I tried the reboot command I deleted some stuff.
[00:25] <Pici> TheMozart: If you use my nick its hilighted for me.
[00:25] <sulio> MarkStoddart The ebook that I want to read is only sold in Palm form, Mobi form and ePub form
[00:25] <ckw> Anyone able to help debug a crash?
[00:25] <TheMozart> p i ci what color is my text on screen when I am not typing to you?
[00:26] <kevstiles4> Hello, does anyone know how I can increase the screen resolution in 9.10 for my display?

[00:26] <MarkStoddart> ckw, pastebin your bug

[00:28] <cg> sorry about that accidental spam :)
[00:28] <hari_> anyone can help me
[00:28] <Hilikus> surely anyone with a samba server and a single modification to /etc/samba/smb.conf must suffer of this problem
[00:28] <MarkStoddart> hari_, restart cups /etc/init.d/cups restart
[00:28] <dr_willis> Hilikus,  i think terhes a way to do that - but ive only seen a few samba updates that update the default configs. so i dont find it an annoyance
[00:29] <hari_> ok thanks
[00:29] <Hilikus> dr_willis: really? didn't you get one recently? probably today
[00:29] <MarkStoddart> kevstiles4, BACKUP FIRST but try modifying your X11 manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:29] <ae86-drifter> anyone know why ssh is fine, very responsive, but sshfs is lagging badly, this is over WAN
[00:29] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: Not if you rebooted. But running out of hard drive space can cause you to lose some data. I had to reconfigure a lot of my applications when I let my home directory fill up.
[00:30] <dr_willis> Hilikus,  yes - and thats the first one ive seen since release... so one every 2 mo. isent a big annoyance
[00:30] <ckw> MarkStoddart, Any ideas? http://pastebin.ca/1747629
[00:30] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I see. Maybe something like that is the problem then. Do you have any idea on how I can find out where the problem is?
[00:30] <hari_> mmm

[00:41] <doufer> Mark is it possible to boot a livecd on a hdd?
[00:41] <git__> anybody running Ubuntu 9.10 on nw8440?

[00:42] <doufer> another Q ... how come ubuntu doesnt have xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[00:42] <doufer> anymore
[00:42] <doufer> ??
[00:42] <mcphail> Ostlian_Bryffelk: look at the mount point options in /etc/fstab first
[00:43] <doufer> ubuntu doesnt rely on xorg.conf anymore?
[00:43] <undecim> mcphail: would the mount options for the root partition be changed in response to the root partition running out of space?
[00:43] <undecim> doufer: Everything is handled by HAL now.
[00:43] <doufer> HAL is replacing xorg.conf
[00:43] <doufer> ?

I deleted/partitioned the ntfs into two ext4, copied my whole /usr to the smaller (40GB) new ext4 from LiveCD (I couldn't do the same with /home cause I encrypted it during Ubuntu install), edited the fstab to point to the new location of /usr, restarted and that's the moment when the grub got broken. So now, that I have /usr copied to the new partition can I simply point to it inst
[00:44] <Jarxes> ead leaving it where it was using "sudo mount /dev/sdb7/usr /mnt"?
[00:44] <doufer> stop!
[00:44] <FloodBot1> Jarxes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:44] <doufer> pastebin
[00:44] <mcphail> undecim: no - it shouldn't directly
[00:44] <doufer> i m wondering if its possible to install livecd on hdd
[00:44] <doufer> ?
[00:44] <doufer> i mean
[00:45] <doufer> boot livecd on hdd and everything would be discarded after reboot
[00:45] <git__> doufer, it's possible
[00:45] <Jarxes> undecim: did you get my long message from a moment ago or was it blocked?
[00:45] <hari_> httpConnectionEncrypt failed».
[00:45] <DBCOOPA> how do you compile alsamixer? i have no sound on recent installation of koala.
[00:45] <hari_> There was an error during operation
[00:45] <doufer> git how?
[00:45] <doufer> i m working on a thin client project
[00:45] <doufer> i m being asked to make a read only linux OS
[00:46] <hari_> help help!!!!
[00:46] <hari_> this persists
[00:46] <Pici> !enter
[00:46] <undecim> Jarxes: Yeah, changing just the /dev/sdXY part in fstab should make ubuntu use the new partition.
[00:46] <tripzero> what's the normal reason that usplash would drop out early into a text console during boot?
[00:47] <agony> Does anyone know a good editor for python?
[00:48] <tripzero> agony: emacs
[00:48] <eric_3> hey, i have a problem, my computer, every time i boot up it searches for a USB drive and i have to hit f12 to have it boot normaly. i can not get into the BIOS because it is locked with a 6 char password. Any ideas of what to do? Oh and can i download and amd x64 archetecture CD and still run it on intel 86x?
[00:48] <Jarxes> undecim: so in other words something went wrong while partitioning I guess.
[00:48] <doufer> sooo xorg.conf is being replaced by HAL?
[00:48] <tripzero> doufer: X will still use xorg.conf if it's there
[00:48] <tripzero> but it tries to rely more on detection rather than a config if it can
[00:48] <doufer> ohh i see
[00:49] <doufer> ok go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch
[00:49] <doufer> look for Create manifest
[00:49] <doufer> that doesnt look right
[00:49] <tripzero> eric_3: reset the bios.  and no you can't run a 64bit OS on a 32bit CPU
[00:49] <undecim> Jarxes: I don't think anything went wrong. Grub doesn't read fstab. Grub just reads its config file from the partition it's told to read it from.
[00:49] <eric_3> thanks! doufer
[00:49] <doufer> create manifest doesnt look right to me
[00:49] <eric_3> thanks tripezero and how do i reset the bios?
[00:50] <tripzero> eric_3: a jumper on your mobo.
[00:50] <Jarxes> undecim: should I use "sudo mount /dev/sdb7/usr /mnt" or rather simply "sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /mnt" to mount the new /usr?
[00:50] <DBCOOPA> I downloaded 9.10 a few days ago. I haven't been able to get sound from my computer since. I have ALSAMIXER 1.0.20 installed. Any advice?
[00:50] <eric_3> k and how would i locate that?
[00:50] <tripzero> doufer: it may not be right.  I think i had to modify that script slightly to get it to work...
[00:50] <doufer> can u send me the correct script?
[00:51] <agony> does emacs have graphic user interface?
[00:51] <doufer> opps the modified script
[00:51] <Night0wl> does anyone use guake? (i know i might be asking in the wrong place)  I can't seem to find an option to keep it loading on the bottom of the screen- it randomly will be top or bottom
[00:51] <hari_> heeeeeeelp!!!!
[00:51] <Pici> !patience
[00:52] <eric_3> will reseting the bios also change the boot order back to HDD?
[00:52] <annodomini> I'm having a problem where my network (wireless) stops working after about a minute. I see a line in the syslog from wpa_supplicant about CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS, so I suspect it may be a variation of this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/460886
[00:52] <undecim> Jarxes: Oh, you are still trying to chroot? If /dev/sdb7 is the partition which has your /usr/ files, you need to mount it with "sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /mnt/usr"
[00:52] <tripzero> eric_3: probably
[00:52] <hari_> There was an error during operation «httpConnectionEncrypt failed».
[00:52] <annodomini> There's a suggested line to add to wpa_supplicant.conf, but I don't find such a file in /etc
[00:52] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> mcphail: Hmm, it doesn't seem to be mounted as noexec
[00:52] <eric_3> but where would i find the jumper
[00:52] <Pici> DBCOOPA: I'm not good at diagnosing sound problems, but have you seen the sound information from ubottu ?
[00:52] <hari_> is the cups error
[00:53] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> mcphail: in fstab I see nothing at least
[00:53] <tripzero> doufer: http://linuxice.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/linuxice/build/1b-prepare-casper?revision=134&view=markup
[00:53] <DBCOOPA> NO. Where is it?
[00:53] <Jarxes> undecim: that's what I wanted to know. thanks again.

[00:53] <KindOne> geitenneuker, worf joined #debian, 3wks 4days 15hrs 53mins 38secs ago.
[00:53] <DBCOOPA> DId I miss something?
[00:53] <annodomini> Should I just create it, with that line, or is Ubuntu's wpa_supplicant picking up configuration from somewhere else?

[00:53] <hari_> that's mention a while ago
[00:54] <DBCOOPA> gotcha
[00:54] <hari_> please
[00:54] <eric_3> Is there anything i should worry about when reseting the bios
[00:54] <DBCOOPA> thank you.
[00:54] <hari_> help me
[00:54] <tripzero> doufer: that code may be exactly the same as the wiki, which works.  if not, i expect you to update the wiki now ;)
[00:54] <doufer> thanks
[00:54] <doufer> its gonna be my first time to make a live cd off an existing installation
[00:54] <doufer> wish me a good luck
[00:54] <tripzero> eric_3: you may have to set the time clock and cpu settings again
[00:55] <eric_3> tripzero: is there a way to locate the jumper?
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: your motherboard manual
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: its usually near the bios battery
[00:55] <tripzero> eric_3: but not always
[00:55] <eric_3> I don't have the MB manual, i am sorry to say this.
[00:55] <melvincv> which is the best backup and restore program?
[00:55] <Pici> hari_: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[00:56] <eric_3> Since the bios is locked i cant tell what kind of MB it is ether
[00:56] <hari_> ubuntu karmic
[00:56] <git__> melvincv, tar
[00:57] <Slix_> Gah. I need zlib and libbz2.
[00:57] <Trizicus> How can set the length of gnome desktop icon text. I ask because they like to overla
[00:57] <toastedmilk> Can anyone help with samba or direct me somewhere to find help on it?
[00:57] <Pici> hari_: one moment
[00:57] <domino_koi> !root
[00:57] <frenzy_usa> !samba
[00:57] <eric_3> try #somba
[00:57] <fsjal> hey guys, i am migrating to v. 9.10 tomorrow from W7, what should i know before installing Karmic Coala ? i have played with it a few times
[00:57] <eric_3> sorry #samba
[00:58] <melvincv> not an archiving utility, an imaging utility to take a image of my root partition, with a boot cd to restore the partition...
[00:58] <eric_3> it is just a guess though
[00:58] <shamike> my son has a g3 imac what version of Ubuntu will work for him?
[00:58] <melvincv> i need a utility similar to norton ghost for linux
[00:58] <Slix_> How do I get zlib and libbz2?
[00:58] <toastedmilk> melvincv, what for?
[00:59] <Trizicus> How can set the length of gnome desktop icon text. I ask because they like to overla
[00:59] <toastedmilk> shamike, take the specs to ubuntu.com and check it out
[00:59] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Is there a way to check info about mounted partitions? I need to see info about my problem that no users have access to /bin/bash
[00:59] <shamike> ok
[00:59] <toastedmilk> Ostlian_Bryffelk, try using root.
[00:59] <melvincv> taking a image of my root partition, in case it gets corrupt...
[00:59] <eric_3> bye
[00:59] <toastedmilk> melvincv, just make a backup
[01:00] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> toastedmilk: Yeah, I got into bash as root in recoverymode but I don't know how to fix the problem from there.
[01:00] <zioplaslt> would anybody like to help me load my ubuntu again? I deleted python2.6 package with all dependencies, and after reinstalling my machine starts booting but never reaches login screen..
[01:00] <Pici> hari_: please run the following command: sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.O /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
[01:00] <dullard> Ostlian_Bryffelk, cat /etc/mtab
[01:00] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, use aptitude
[01:00] <main> #linuxac
[01:01] <dbugger> Hello fellas
[01:01] <zioplaslt> i used the recovery option and through aptitude updated all the packages, downloaded the rest
[01:01] <zioplaslt> but that didnt help..
[01:01] <melvincv> backup, which program? tar is just an archiver, right?
[01:01] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, synaptic?
[01:01] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: To get info on currently mounted partitions, try "mount"
[01:02] <melvincv> toasted milk: backup, which program?
[01:02] <chasedawg1> rhythmBox help....
[01:02] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, I got some "bash: groups: command not found" but other than that I'm on "root@ubuntu:/#". Now what? Will it run properly it I simply restart the machine now or do I need to run the "grub-update", or something else?
[01:02] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> dullard, undecim: Hmm, proc, /sys, varrun and varlock has "noexec". Is that good?
[01:02] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: yeah.
[01:02] <zioplaslt> i think i cant reach synaptic, or maybe i dont know how. I guess maybe something is wrong with xorg or graphics card drivers
[01:03] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, yeah you'd have to use aptitude to reinstall the dependencies
[01:03] <zioplaslt> becauze it freezes after file system checks
[01:03] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: The partition with my home dir that gives problems has (rw, errors=remount-ro) Is that good?
[01:03] <undecim> Jarxes: just run "update-grub" and then reboot, and see if it works.
[01:03] <melvincv> backup, which program?
[01:03] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: yeah, that's good.
[01:03] <zioplaslt> aptitude says all dependencies are resolved, everything updated
[01:03] <melvincv> backup, which program? how bout clonezilla?
[01:04] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, but you can't log in normally?
[01:04] <dbugger> Anyone want to mourn with me? Windows just erased EVERYTHING :S
[01:04] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: So it seems to be mounted correctly, and the permissions for /bin/bash is correct. Now what? Any ideas? : S
[01:04] <chasedawg1> Whats the best ipod manager?
[01:04] <zioplaslt> no I cant, i dont reach the login screen
[01:04] <zioplaslt> i can only get the console
[01:04] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, what does it say?
[01:04] <zioplaslt> through recovery boot
[01:05] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: try "su [yourusername]"
[01:05] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: cannot execute /bin/bash
[01:05] <melvincv> backup, which program? how bout clonezilla?
[01:05] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> Permission denied
[01:05] <quietone> chasedawg1: what are you trying to do with the ipod?
[01:06] <zioplaslt> well, i deleted the 'quiet' option, but loading don't show any error, just when file system checks are finished -> screen freezes and thats it
[01:06] <toastedmilk> melvincv, whichever one you like.  there are plenty.
[01:06] <chasedawg1> edit the names and artists but it wont let me
[01:06] <toastedmilk> zioplaslt, reinstall your xorg
[01:06] <hari_> Pici_: cp: missing destination file operand after '/ etc/cups/cupsd.conf.0/etc/cups/cupsd.conf »
[01:06] <zioplaslt> Thank you, I'll try
[01:06] <chasedawg1> quietone: edit the names and artists but it wont let me
[01:06] <quietone> chasedawg1: which program are you using?
[01:06] <melvincv> any system restore program in ubuntu?
[01:07] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I say just try reinstalling each of your packages, because it seems that some important file got nixed when you ran out of space.
[01:07] <toastedmilk> melvincv, no.
[01:07] <toastedmilk> melvincv, you have to use the terminal
[01:07] <chasedawg1> quietone: rhythmbox
[01:07] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: "sudo aptitude reinstall '~i'".  should do that.
[01:07] <melvincv> k, how do u restore using the terminal?
[01:08] <Pici> hari_: You need to be exact when typing the command. Spacing is important.   sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.O /etc/cups/cupsd.conf       thats a capital O, not a 0 also.
[01:08] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Can I risk losing other stuff? like things in msqldatabases, files and such?
[01:08] <quietone> chasedawg1: there are some formats that rhythmbox cant or wont change the details of. I can fully manipulate anything that is .ogg
[01:08] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I don't think so, because those are config files. You should backup all your important files before doing this.
[01:09] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: ok
[01:09] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: You should always backup important files before doing anything big.
[01:09] <melvincv> how do u restore ubuntu using the terminal?
[01:09] <chasedawg1> quietone: dang all of mine are m4a or mp3, but do you know another good program/
[01:09] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: yeah.^^
[01:09] <undecim> melvincv: what do you need to restore?
[01:10] <Jebnor> Hello all!
[01:10] <hari_> Pici_: that was my problem
[01:10] <melvincv> backup and resotre the root partition.
[01:10] <hari_> haha
[01:10] <hari_> :D
[01:10] <undecim> melvincv: What's wrong with it?
[01:11] <anondraws> Hey #ubuntu, I recently got some instructions on reading cpu temperature in the shell.
[01:11] <anondraws> Any suggestions on how to regulate it better?
[01:11] <root> hello
[01:11] <melvincv> nothing, just in case...
[01:11] <quietone> chasedawg1: when I dual booted I played with Songbird. It seems to have good community support and features. I got the children off itunes and onto Songbird and they like.
[01:11] <anondraws> My notebook seems to be intent on setting itself on fire.
[01:11] <undecim> So you just want to backup your files in case disaster strikes?
[01:11] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: lol, I couldn't do that command. I got "can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission Denied."
[01:11] <Jebnor> In 8.04LT I'm tying to install libqt4-dev and it does not install due to a bunch of dependencies that are 'not going to be installed'.  Has anyone seen this behaviour?
[01:12] <Jebnor> Correction. 8.10.
[01:12] <chasedawg1> quietone: k thanks
[01:12] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: Sorry, you cam omit "sudo" from that command, since you are in the recovery console.... Hopefully you don't get a Permission error from aptitude...
[01:12] <melvincv> yes
[01:12] <quietone> chasedawg1: do you also use windows?
[01:13] <chasedawg1> quietone: ya i have dual boot, but i dont get on windows that much
[01:13] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I tried that too, and then aptitude printed out all avalilable parameters and at the bottom "This aptitude does not have super cow powers"
[01:14] <undecim> melvincv: Well then you don't need to worry about the entire root partition, because all the files from there can be downloaded freely from ther internet. You just need to copy any important files from your home directory to somewhere else.
[01:14] <cg> Has anyone managed to get line-in going for an onboard sound card, to play straight through speakers without a delay? tried pulseaudio's loopback module but it has a 1-2 second delay :(  thanks.
[01:14] <quietone> chasedawg1: If you check out Songbird, beware that you can't share the music library with both systems, you will need to maintain two libraries (one of the reasons I left).
[01:15] <melvincv> k
[01:15] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: nvm, typo. xD
[01:15] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: lol, I was in the middle of suggesting that it was...
[01:15] <Jebnor> Anyone have trouble installing libqt4-dev?
[01:15] <melvincv> now, is there a system automatic repair option in ubuntu?
[01:16] <melvincv> how to use it?
[01:16] <donny> Jebnor, installing or using?
[01:16] <ckw> Any way to foce anything written to stdout/stderr to also be written to a log file?
[01:16] <zig_> I'm trying to use the usb-creator to setup a USB stick to boot an Ubuntu install
[01:16] <cooldeniz> hello
[01:16] <undecim> Jebnor: it installed fine for me.
[01:16] <zig_> Or rather, the Ubuntu installer
[01:16] <chasedawg1> quietone: ya i did play with that and songbird doesn't work with anything else. Do you know anything about amarok?
[01:16] <zig_> And I've a question: I put the USB stick in, and it reads in the utility as having two devices: /dev/sdd and /dev/sdd1
[01:16] <undecim> ckw: look at tee. It should be installed by default.
[01:17] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: I got another error now after it listed all packages that was gpoing to be reinstalled: "I wasn't able to locate file for the linux-image-2.6.24-24-server package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package."  :(
[01:17] <ckw> I am getting a crash that outputs to the server cga console, then becomes unresponsive
[01:17] <zig_> This leads me to believe the USB stick is in fact partitions... my question is: Which should I select to format?
[01:17] <melvincv> is there a system automatic repair option in ubuntu?
[01:17] <imran> Hey guys, quick question. Here's the scenario : Had Windows XP. Later, installed Ubuntu to a new HD. Even later, partitioned the Windows drive and installed Windows 7 on it. This replaced Grub. Now, Windows 7 boots and asks if I want to boot 7 or XP. I reinstalled Grub, and all that I can get on now is Ubuntu. How can I get back to booting Windows 7, from where I can choose XP or 7?
[01:17] <zig_> Should I format /dev/sdd, clearing out the partition information? Or should I format /dev/sdd1?
[01:17] <komputes> zig_: the sdd is the device, the sdd1 is the partition
[01:17] <komputes> zig_: it makes no diff what you partition, in my experience
[01:18] <melvincv> imran: there should an option called windows xp professional
[01:18] <quietone> chasedawg1: No. I have stopped searching for music programs as Rythymbox covers my personal needs. Have you read the forums?
[01:18] <komputes> zig_: this is a new issue introduced with devicekit-disks in 9.10
[01:18] <komputes> zig_: would you like the bug number?
[01:18] <Jarxes> undecim: ok, seems it's done. I'm rebooting my machine. hope it'll work fine now. I'll be back to report whether success or failure.
[01:19] <imran> melvincv, there is but trying to boot that does literally nothing. also tried to add a windows 7 boot command, and didn't work. Got an error 22 or something.
[01:19] <chasedawg1> quietone: I'm reading them now.
[01:20] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk: I'm all out of ideas for this one. I think you might have better luck on the Ubuntu forums though, since someone must have run into a problem like this before, and the forums tend to reach more eyes than IRC.
[01:20] <melvincv> imran: u have windows on another harddisk?
[01:20] <NFischer> Hi all, i seemingly have accidentally deleted wines entry in Applications-Bar.. how do i get it back? i.e. Wine is not selectable in the Applications-bar on gnome-panel.
[01:20] <ckw> imran, run os-prober as root
[01:20] <Ostlian_Bryffelk> undecim: Okay, I'll try that then. Thanks for the help anyway. ^^
[01:20] <quietone> chasedawg1: happy reading. i'm off now
[01:21] <melvincv> nfischer: how did u delete it?
[01:21] <chasedawg1> quietone: k thanks
[01:21] <undecim> Ostlian_Bryffelk:  No problem... If I think of anything, I'll be sure to post it.
[01:21] <tkmr> NFischer, go to Preferences -> Main Menu and then add it again.
[01:21] <imran> melvincv, I have windows XP and 7 on 1st drive, and ubuntu on my 2nd
[01:21] <imran> ckw, downloading and installin
[01:21] <NFischer> melter, yeah i cant really remember.. its been a time.. i deinstalled it and wien would not disapear
[01:21] <ckw> undecim, This is being output to the console when an app crashes, I'm not actually running anything from the console at the time
[01:22] <ckw> thus, I can't use tee
[01:22] <imran> ckw, /dev/sda1:Windows Vista (loader):Windows:chain
[01:22] <NFischer> melter, so i deleted it (i think!) by rightclicking Edit Menues
[01:22] <NFischer> tkmr, its not there anymore
[01:22] <Jarxes> undecim: If it does work, this accomplishment should find its way to some grub-fix forum don't you think? I'll edit and post all we did on pastebin so you may edit it further and post it on some forum. Maybe it'll be useful to someone else as well...
[01:23] <ckw> Well that's interesting
[01:23] <NFischer> tkmr, i did not deselect "show" but deleted it
[01:23] <melvincv> imran: sudo grub-install hd1 --root-directory=/media/disk
[01:23] <ckw> imran, you might have to reconstruct it by hand
[01:23] <undecim> ckw: sounds like you have something backgrounded.
[01:23] <ckw> Yes
[01:23] <ckw> I know
[01:23] <NFischer> tkmr, since ive had it uninstalled that time
[01:23] <melvincv> imran: after mounting the root partition using the live cd, as /media/disk
[01:23] <tkmr> NFischer: You should be able to add it via the "Add Menu Item" iirc
[01:23] <tkmr> ?
[01:23] <ckw> And something is crashing and outputting to either stderr or stdout, I don't know which
[01:24] <ckw> what I want to know is how to redirect them to files
[01:24] <nvme> i am trying to access an ubuntu desktop thats on the LAN of a windows desktop that i can connect to using remote desktop, is there any way i could get direct ssh to the linux machine ?  (only have access to the windows machine through internet )
[01:24] <ckw> so I can figure out what's wrong
[01:24] <NFischer> tkmr, Type? Command?
[01:24] <imran> melvincv, I  am on Ubuntu now, no live disk - Im trying to ADD windows to grub
[01:24] <imran> ckw, How can I go about this, what do you mean by "by hand"
[01:25] <melvincv> k
[01:25] <melvincv> 1 min...
[01:25] <nohup> imran: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:25] <ckw> imran, modifying the grub menu file directly
[01:25] <imran> ckw, nohup, I went in there and tried to edit the file but I apparantly didnt put the right numbers/info
[01:26] <nohup> isn't there an example for it by default ?
[01:26] <melvincv> title		Microsoft Windows XP Professional
[01:26] <melvincv> rootnoverify	(hd1,0)
[01:26] <melvincv> savedefault
[01:26] <melvincv> makeactive
[01:26] <melvincv> chainloader	+1
[01:26] <FloodBot1> melvincv: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <imran> ckw, nohup, Can you tell me what to put - Windows XP should be 0,0 and Win 7 should be 0,1
[01:26] <nohup> exactly, and replace the (hd1,0) by the apropiate partition
[01:26] <nohup> imran: what melvincv just pasteed :)
[01:27] <drummerboy> hi, i’m installing 9.10 on an old laptop. with the live-cd all looked good, but now i installed it and there are no more characters visible. only rectangles
[01:27] <ckw> imran, Can you please put the file into pastebin?
[01:27] <nohup> although mine isn't using makeactive.. (hat does that do, melvincv?)
[01:27] <Dimoutlook> Good evening is it very hard to duel boot vista with 4 partitions on a 1 TB drivw
[01:27] <sulio> need an ebook reader for Ubuntu... any thoughts?
[01:27] <Dimoutlook> that should be drive
[01:27] <sulio> dimoutlook I dont think it would be difficult
[01:28] <melvincv> the grub-install automatically did that 4 me
[01:28] <undecim> ckw: Have a look at http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html. It explains all the various BASH redirections you can use.
[01:28] <sulio> dimoutlook Are you worried that 250 GB isnt enough HD space for Vista?
[01:28] <tkmr> NFischer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4025416&postcount=4 ?
[01:28] <Dimoutlook> okm thanks could you point me to a good faq on that
[01:28] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinX
[01:28] <ckw> ...
[01:28] <ckw> I know about bash redirections
[01:28] <ckw> this process, whatever it is, is auto starting
[01:28] <ckw> I'm not starting it
[01:29] <ckw> however, it is outputting to the standard console
[01:29] <drizzt__> P share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:29] <undecim> ckw: Sorry... didn't understand.
[01:29] <nohup> ckw: it's not doing that though syslogd ?
[01:29] <DBCOOPA> ubbotu: you were helping me with my sound earlier and i had to jet. first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). I don't see this option anywhere in my volume control?
[01:29] <Dimoutlook> Ok thanks could you point me to a good faq on that s search on the forums only gave three hits
[01:29] <imran> melvincv, two things : One, Windows OS's are on my 1st HD, so should it be (0,x) and two, should I actually run 7 since that is the one that chains to XP?
[01:29] <imran> ehhh he left....
[01:30] <imran> ckw, Do you want me to actually upload my menu.lst?
[01:30] <sulio> http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-6157570.html this might do it for you Dimoutlook, but Im not really sure what you want to dual boot to besides vista... you want ubuntu on the other partition? and what about the other two partitions?
[01:30] <NFischer> tkmr, awesome, thx!
[01:30] <geitenneuker> i eat a fnord
[01:30] <ckw> imran, yes
[01:30] <johnd> ok, my host keeps sending me a security update thing about an apache2 problem and how it is a kernel issue... but I couldn't find anything about it for ubuntu
[01:30] <johnd> haven't updated or anything either
[01:30] <ryanCH> can someone please explain how this works exactly the \32\ part.. "grep -o "[a-z0-9]\{32\}""
[01:30] <imran> ckw, http://pastebin.com/m427fbc7e
[01:30] <tkmr> NFischer: That worked? =)
[01:30] <Dimoutlook> One ext4 the other ntfs
[01:30] <NFischer> tkmr, yes!
[01:31] <devunt> hello
[01:31] <drizzt__> ryanCH, exactly 32 repetitions
[01:31] <imran> ckw, again, note that my Windows OS's are on my FIRST HD, and that Windows 7 is the one that can boot into XP or 7 (As far as I know anyway)
[01:31] <tkmr> NFischer: Cool. Glad I could help. =)
[01:31] <ryanCH> drizzt__, is there an example i could see to see exactly how it works?
[01:31] <ryanCH> drizzt__, whats with the \'s?
[01:31] <nohup> imran: and windows is on the first partition of that hd ?
[01:31] <sulio> What's a good ebook reader for Ubuntu? Anyone?
[01:32] <drizzt__> ryanCH, \ makes { and } special characters
[01:32] <nohup> sulio: ek=books aren't just pdfs ? (never bought one)
[01:32] <ckw> Yup, I understand
[01:32] <nohup> e-books, even
[01:32] <imran> NoCode, 1st drive is partitioned : 1st partition XP, 2nd Partition Win 7 and 2nd HD is ALL ubuntu
[01:32] <imran> NoCode, sorry wrong person
[01:32] <imran> nohup,  1st drive is partitioned : 1st partition XP, 2nd Partition Win 7 and 2nd HD is ALL ubuntu
[01:32] <drizzt__> ryanCH, it's \{m,n\}, where m and n are minimum and maximum repetition count
[01:33] <Jarxes> undecim: YOU ARE MY HERO. I'M BACK ON MY SYSTEM. I AM GOING TO PRAISE YOUR NOBLE NAME TILL THE END OF MY DAYS!! ;) - thanx mate, I'm posting this accomplishment on pastebin. I'm sure you know better what to to with it than I do.
[01:33] <Flea_> imran, is there a point to having 3 OS's installed?
[01:33] <nohup> imran: well you could try (0,1) if you say that one 'chains' to xp... but if xp boots from the first it SHOULD work, i guess..
[01:33] <djtoast> Hi all,  Does anyone know if multi gpu support is planned in the next randr version?
[01:33] <nohup> although i'm not sure if there's supposed to be a space between chainloader and +1... :) (mine has one)
[01:34] <sulio> nohup No, I guess they are not... check out this site http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=search&query=^search_by_series.sql&q1=Daniel%20X
[01:34] <sulio> nohup the formats are quite diverse
[01:34] <djtoast> I read that it was supposed to in 1.3 but never made it.
[01:34] <ckw> imran, Ugh, I was hoping I could copy from my grub files, but I'm using grub2
[01:34] <Dimoutlook> sulio thanks for the tip going to sign off and try that will get back latter
[01:34] <imran> Flea_, Sure. XP for Gaming, Ubuntu for fun, and 7 for working.
[01:35] <ckw> Just copying the XP part, replacing (hd0, 0) with (hd0, 1) doesn't work?
[01:35] <sulio> Dimoutlook Right, use GOOGLE if you have any more questions, it will lead you to many forums
[01:35] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:35] <Wilabob> Hi, guys... I just tried updating to grub2 and now I'm getting error 15...
[01:35] <Wilabob> Anyone help me?
[01:35] <nohup> sulio: oh, i see.. how very annoying...
[01:35] <geitenneuker> why firefox is sodamn slow
[01:35] <imran> ckw, Tried that actually, and changed back to old verson
[01:35] <sulio> nohup No kidding. I suppose I could run something under Wine
[01:35] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, because you have many plugins
[01:35] <ckw> What happened when you added it?  the menu showed up but it didn't work?
[01:35] <geitenneuker> drizzt__: i got no plugins
[01:36] <geitenneuker> i dont need that
[01:36] <nohup> ckw: isn't there a space needed between "chainloader" and "+1" ?
[01:36] <Flea_> imran, cool... I just feel like I would pick one OS and stay in it mostly and neglect the other two.
[01:36] <geitenneuker> i compare it with chrome, and chrome is tons faster
[01:36] <imran> ckw, if I recall, I got an "Error 22" or something similar - I'll try again, be back in a minute...
[01:36] <imran> Flea_, Hint hint, i stick with XP
[01:36] <geitenneuker> firefox is a piece of whatever
[01:36] <saptech> greetings all
[01:37] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, try Opera then. What is youur Ubuntu question?
[01:37] <Wilabob> Can someone help me with grub2 and error 15?
[01:37] <Oak> What is the name of the program that shows your size of the files on your computer in boxes?
[01:38] <forceflow> Oak: "Disk Usage Analyzer"
[01:38] <Oak> forceflow: thanks
[01:38] <prohna> is there a fix for firefox not refreshing correctly when compiz is on?
[01:38] <forceflow> Oak: also known as baobab
[01:38] <prohna> like when i scroll a page
[01:38] <geitenneuker> firefox has spaghetti code
[01:38] <drizzt__> does it have 'boxes'?
[01:38] <geitenneuker> just like gnome, lot of spaghetti coe
[01:38] <prohna> seems like i remember having this issue years ago when i used it
[01:39] <prohna> woulda thought it had been resolved by now
[01:39] <ubuntu> hmm wich distos you guys using or wich one is rhe best for a linux nub?
[01:39] <factotum> geitenneuker: you should check out the kernel some time ha!
[01:39] <drizzt__> take your whining in #mozilla or whatever
[01:39] <geitenneuker> tons of config files, i hate that, is it possible to use a windows like system, using a "registry" file instead of those crappy old .conf sucks?
[01:39] <prohna> its not a firefox issue
[01:39] <prohna> when compiz is off it goes away
[01:39] <factotum> geitenneuker: yes
[01:39] <geitenneuker> factotum: xml language or something
[01:39] <nohup> imran: and and and ? :)
[01:40] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, XML is awful idea for registry
[01:40] <imran> nohup, ckw, Didnt work - got "Error 12 : Invalid Device Requested"
[01:40] <forceflow> geitenneuker: these .conf files allow people to customize the look and feel of firefox
[01:40] <geitenneuker> drizzt__: dbase?
[01:40] <ckw> imran, Does XP work still?
[01:40] <Jarxes> undecim: YOU ARE MY HERO. I'M BACK ON MY SYSTEM. I AM GOING TO PRAISE YOUR NOBLE NAME TILL THE END OF MY DAYS!! ;) - thanx mate, I'm posting this accomplishment on pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu.com/355286/). I'm sure you know better what to to with it than I do.
[01:40] <drizzt__> geitenneuker, yes
[01:40] <Jarxes> undecim: are you there?
[01:41] <ja660k> i need a app to monitor some well known ports ie ssh, ftw for activity ?
[01:41] <geitenneuker> forceflow: i talk about  a single file, now every config file has to find all over the isk
[01:41] <sunraider3> i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something???
[01:41] <imran> ckw, Nope D:
[01:41] <ja660k> ftp*
[01:41] <factotum> if I was a mozilla dev I could have a specific answer, but alas I am not
[01:41] <factotum> then again I dont use Firefox anymoe
[01:41] <geitenneuker> i hope a coder from microsoft create such a OS without .conf crap
[01:41] <Trizicus> I'm trying to burn a DVD and it worked before using Brasero. Now I try and it doesn't find my drive at all.
[01:41] <ckw> Hrm
[01:42] <brewster> ubuntu trt linux mint for newbs
[01:42] <imran> ckw, Is there anything for ubuntu that will tell me what partitions have OS's on them so I can be 100% sure my (X,X)'s are right?
[01:42] <ckw> kind of wish you had a laptop so you could test and talk :P
[01:43] <factotum> just go back to using nc, it makes things easier
[01:43] <sunraider3>  i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something, if so, what is the command???
[01:43] <djtoast> what would i loose by downgrading to 8.04 ? from 9.10
[01:43] <imran> ckw Well, I could run chat on my iPod but I would be responding slower, and making lots of typos...
[01:43] <factotum> 1.06
[01:43] <ckw> Alright, I remember what I did now, when I had one hard drive with windows and one with linux
[01:43] <ckw> imran, check out http://ubuntu-georgia.org/installing_ubuntu_and_windows_xp_on_separate_drives#Case%202:%20You%20already%20installed%20Ubuntu%20on%20an%20HD
[01:43] <drizzt__> djtoast, Compact List GTK view :)
[01:43] <KenBW2> where are the configuration folders for gedit?
[01:44] <treesapsatchel> if i backup files from a ftp in .tar it preserves file permissions/chmod: my question is where is that permissions data stored... is it in each individual file or is there a global list with the files and their chmods that is accessed to determine it
[01:44] <ckw> changing the value in root (hd0, 0) to (hd1, 0)
[01:44] <ckw> then adding the two mapp lines
[01:44] <factotum> KenBW2: ~/.gedit i think
[01:44] <ubuntu> i tryed mint 8, ubuntu 9.10 xbuntu 9.10 kubuntu 9.10 netbook remix feeling ubuntu maby best for me
[01:44] <drizzt__> treesapsatchel, it's in each file header
[01:44] <Trizicus> gnome no longer auto mounts my cd/dvd drive and brasero no longer detects drive. How do I fix this?
[01:44] <sunraider3> anyone?
[01:44] <sunraider3>  i am having a problem installing anything. i run config then when i enter make or make install in says permission is denied usr/etc... do i need to run this as root or something???
[01:44] <jtaji> treesapsatchel: it's stored in the tar file
[01:45] <drizzt__> sunraider3, sudo <command> if you're installinf from terminal
[01:45] <treesapsatchel> is it possible to modify manually and selectively?
[01:45] <jrib> treesapsatchel: I'm not sure why you would ask that question but: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tar_(file_format)
[01:45] <forceflow> sunraider3: you probably need root privileges, add "sudo" before the command
[01:45] <djtoast> seems that 8.04 is the only version that had support for multi gpu (triple monitor on 2 vid card)  sucks to have to go back but i think ive exausted every other options.
[01:45] <treesapsatchel> before they hit the ftp?
[01:45] <sunraider3> so would--> sudo make install work?
[01:45] <drizzt__> treesapsatchel, write a C pipeline utility and pass tar thru it
[01:45] <sunraider3> "sudo make install"
[01:46] <jrib> sunraider3: work to do what?
[01:46] <jrib> sunraider3: you don't install things on ubuntu or most modern linux distributions by compiling
[01:46] <imran> ckw, if Windows 7 is on (0,1) and it chains to XP on (0,0) shouldn't I set "root" to hd (0,1)? Then, how do I configure the map #'s?
[01:47] <brewster> ubuntu check out MoonOS  google for it
[01:47] <factotum> unless your a genuis and use slackware
[01:47] <sunraider3> jrip: how then?
[01:47] <drizzt__> jrib, of course you do, stuff in repositories is old and buggy
[01:47] <jrib> drizzt__: if you really believe that then there's no point in using a distro
[01:47] <jrib> !software | sunraider3
[01:47] <ardchoille> drizzt__: Then you're doing something wrong.. I haven't had to compile anything in 4 years
[01:48] <factotum> dern kids and their newfangled package managers
[01:48] <Electric|Master> My terminal kind of died on me, and someone suggested I kill Gnome and restart it
[01:48] <drizzt__> ardchoille, you don't compile, you live with bugs until next release
[01:48] <Electric|Master> How do I do that without terminal? :S
[01:48] <imran> ckw, ...hallo?
[01:49] <nohup> Electric|Master: crtl-alt-f1?
[01:49] <Electric|Master> ok
[01:49] <gdiz> hey everyone, I had a question for you.  I recently set up an nfs share on my ubuntu box.  However, I have this strange thing that happens.  The system seems to hang whenever I go to restart/ shutdown, but only when I access the nfs share from a different computer.  Does anyone know why that would be or how to fix it?
[01:49] <nohup> (alt f7 to go back)
[01:49] <nohup> should've probably said that earlier :)
[01:49] <crazy2k> What could be a process called "exe"?
[01:50] <Jarxes> Q: I have an encrypted /home directory on partition with the rest of the system but I want to move it to a different partition. this partition isn't encrypted, and I want to encrypt it after I move my /home directory to that partition. How to accomplish that?
[01:50] <ardchoille> crazy2k: are you using google chrome?
[01:50] <crazy2k> ardchoille: Yes!
[01:51] <ardchoille> crazy2k: It's part of the google chrome package
[01:51] <dan__> Hi !
[01:51] <crazy2k> ardchoille: It was a page with flash in it.
[01:51] <dan__> I have i newby question...
[01:51] <ardchoille> crazy2k: ik, something different then
[01:51] <Electric|Master> Ahh
[01:52] <Electric|Master> I couldn't get out
[01:52] <Electric|Master> lol
[01:52] <Electric|Master> But thank you :)
[01:52] <FloodBot1> Electric|Master: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:52] <dan__> what is "symbol" like in "symbol error lookup"
[01:52] <crazy2k> ardchoille: I mean, I killed that tab and exe stopped eating my processor.
[01:52] <ardchoille> crazy2k: "exe" is part of the google chrome package
[01:52] <drizzt__> dan__, symbols are names of function in modules
[01:52] <nohup> Electric|Master: yeah im sorry,shoudl've mentioned you press alt-f7 to come back :)
[01:52] <dan__> ahhh thanks !!
[01:53] <dan__> ok, beacause Midori, Epiphany not work anymore right now since webkit update
[01:55] <Wilabob> Hi I just booted grub 2 and got an error 15 message. I followed this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I get to reconfiguring and it gives me three options and I'm not sure which one. There's sda sdb and something else. I have a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I have tried sda and sdb and neither work so before I try the last option... Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
[01:56] <drizzt__> I'm having problems trying to connect WinXP share to Karmic machine, getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
[01:57] <sam9> I currently have win 7 installed on /dev/sda1 and linux on /dev/sdc1 . Do i need to be installing grub on the win7 drive?
[01:57] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me?
[01:58] <airstrike> sam9: you install grub -or- MBR on your boot partition
[01:58] <airstrike> sam9: then configure dual-boot accordingly
[01:58] <christiann> hi somebody knows how fix sysctl is saing "read only"
[01:59] <christiann> sysctl oid: is read only
[01:59] <airstrike> sam9: don't pm me, please. i know very little about this and others can offer some advice too if you keep the convo public
[01:59] <sam9> airstrike. Sorry
[01:59] <airstrike> sam9: i think it just stalls grub on wherever ubuntu is installed
[01:59] <sam9> During install it never asked me where i want to install grub to
[01:59] <airstrike> but that's a big maybe
[02:00] <Wilabob> Okay I just figured it out, I should be using sda and I already used that before. Could grub2 not have installed on my /boot partition and my bios isn't seeing it?
[02:00] <mindfast> hello is there any one who could help me set up a linux router? or even point me to a up to date tutorial on how to do this?  I tried to use this tut found here http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com...be-router.html  .... but it seems that tut was made awhile ago and the webmin program is not the same as in the tutorial.  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
[02:00] <ardchoille> I would like to have text output instead of the grub splash screen while booting. Do I simply remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and then run sudo update-grub ?
[02:00] <Jarxes> Q: I have an encrypted /home directory on partition with the rest of the system but I want to move it to a different partition. this partition isn't encrypted, and I want to encrypt it after I move my /home directory to that partition. How to accomplish that?
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  you could put grub on the linux drive. and tell the pc via the bios/menus to boot that drive if you wanted.
[02:02] <undecim> Jarxes: How is your home directory encrypted? Karmic's automated encryption (i.e. from the installer)?
[02:02] <ubuntu> http://www.hdwallpapers.net/hd-wallpapers
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  duriong one of the last dialogs/install box's theres some extras/options  button i recall.. Or just unplug the windows drive.. install linux.. plug it back in
[02:02] <ubuntu> nice wallpapers
[02:02] <sam9> Dr_Willis: it seems it only boots the drive that is in my SATA port 0
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> sam9:  my pc can boot any opf them if i tell the bios what one to boot.
[02:03] <gdiz> is it possible to have a mount location for a samba drive that is permanent.  Kind of like an fstab for samba?
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> gdiz:  you can put samba shares in fstab - yes.
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[02:03] <sam9> Dr_Willis. ok let me try that then. thanks!
[02:04] <Dr_Willis> gdiz:  you quickly learn to NOT use shares with spaces in the names.. :) if using the fstab
[02:04] <Jarxes> undecim: yes, Karmic's automated encryption
[02:04] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:04] <entity> hello Ubuntu-ers!
[02:04] <gdiz> Dr_Willis, oh excellent. thank you.  I did not know that.
[02:04] <mindfast> hello is there any one who could help me set up a linux router? or even point me to a up to date tutorial on how to do this?

[02:05] <imran> Ok. I am back to Ground Zero....
[02:05] <undecim> Jarxes: Then you should be able to move your home directory around as if it were full of normal files. Just remember to including the hidden /home/.ecryptfs directory, which contains files needed to unlock your home directory.
[02:05] <ivanoats> Hi, I can't figure out why Err http://security.ubuntu.com jaunty-security/main (packagename) 404 Not Found while upgrading ?
[02:06] <Jarxes> undecim: ic, simple, cheers yet again...
[02:06] <undecim> Jarxes: Anytime.
[02:07] <imran> So, I need help and it looks like the people who tried to help me before are gone, so let me explain. I had Windows XP on HD 1. I later installed Ubuntu to HD 2. I LATER partitioned and installed Windows 7 to HD 1. So I have XP and Win 7 on HD 1, and Ubuntu on HD 2. Now, I have GRUB installed and it loads Ubuntu just fine. I cant get it to load Win 7 however. Note that Win 7 "Chain boots" into Win XP, asking if you want to boot XP or 7. So,
[02:07] <imran> how can I add Win 7 to Grub?!
[02:07] <imran> Also note that I forgot to say I cant load Win XP from Grub Either.
[02:09] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:09] <Dr_Willis> imran:  in theory if using 9.10 -  the grub tools should see/add  windows.  - you DO have an entry in grub for widnwos or not?
[02:10] <ubuntu> it is somting in startup manager
[02:10] <imran> Dr_Willis, Im using 9.04... Can I easily update to 9.10 without a new CD?
[02:10] <elitecoder> I need to setup a VPN on my server for my iPhone. Does anyone know of a method that works with it?
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> imran:  you can.. but that wont update grub to the latest version (grub2) - and grub2 has the fancy new stuff to see/add windows automatically
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> imran:  you may have to manually edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst and add a proper entry for your windows drive.
[02:12] <imran> Dr_Willis, I tried to manually do it and couldn't get it - How can I update to 9.10 and install Grub2? I wanted to upgrade to 9.10 anyway so this is a good excuse for myself
[02:12] <DragonKnight> 혹시 한국분 계신가요?
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> imran:  i would do a clean install to 9.10 - not a upgrade.. but you can try a upgrade if you want
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> !upgrade
[02:13] <undecim> Wilabob: At grub, you have a "sh:grub>" prompt?
[02:13] <imran> Only reason I dont want to clean install is I'd have to reinstall all my downloaed stuff... Unless upgrading would wipe them anyway?
[02:14] <Dr_Willis> imran:  deopends on what you mean by 'stuff'
[02:14] <Wilabob> undecim: nope just says error 15
[02:14] <imran> Dr_Willis Applications and Tweaks, etc.
[02:14] <imran> Dr_Willis, Games, Compiz settings, others
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> imran:  thers ways to clone a list of what apps you have installed.. and if you keep /home/  on its own partiion, or restore it. your other settings stay the same
[02:15] <baltadt> how do you delete sudo files in terminal
[02:15] <jrib> baltadt: what is a "sudo file"?
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  what do you mean 'sudo files' ?
[02:15]  * jrib hands off to Dr_Willis and goes watch more of the office
[02:16] <baltadt> files in /opt folder...sorry noob here
[02:16] <imran> Dr_Willis, So your saying that if I just went and clicked upgrade, I would lose as much stuff as if I had clean installed?
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> imran:  no that is not what i said.
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  if they are owned  by root.. then you use the proper sudo commands to delete them
[02:20] <baltadt> what is that command?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> imran:  upgradeing however will NOT get you to grub2. so you would still need to add the windows sytem by hand. or manually upgrade to grub2
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  sudo rm /path/to/whatever   - and you proberly SHOULD go read a few bash tutorials first
[02:20] <imran> Dr_Willis, I understand, and ok one more question, is the installation of grub2 difficult, assuming I'm decent with terminal?
[02:20] <baltadt> <----- trying to learn terminal commands. I have been trying to learn but I am a hans on learner
[02:20] <baltadt> ty
[02:20] <undecim> Wilabob: What if you hold down the Shift button while Grub is loading?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | imran
[02:20]  * Dr_Willis waits for baltadt to come back saying he accidently deleted /
[02:20] <Home_> hello, is there anyone here with experience on setting up a linux router?  Even if you could just point me to a up to date tutorial that would be appreciated.
[02:20] <imran> Thanks Dr_Willis :) I'll come back tomorrow, if you're on and post results - Home internet is kinda slow, at school, wifi goes about 1 mbps. A good improvement :)
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> Home_:  i recall several linux -router projects.. basuically you set up the proper iptables and  ICS rules...
[02:20] <zig_> Is there anything wrong with only having LVM2 LV's?
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> !ics | Home_
[02:20] <zig_> And no /boot outside the LVM or anything?
[02:21] <nihi> #lol
[02:22] <Home_> thank you. i will check out those 2 links
[02:23] <PinkFreud> hey folks.  trying to convince karmic to give me a gdm session via xdmcp on a headless box (i.e., a VM which lacks a framebuffer)
[02:23] <ardchoille> I would like to have text output instead of the grub splash screen while booting. Do I simply remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and then run sudo update-grub ?
[02:23] <PinkFreud> I have a custom.conf in place for gdm, and I've added a [server] section which *should* disable the default X server startup in gdm.  Problem is, it doesn't work.
[02:23] <mvierow> hi everyone
[02:23] <PinkFreud> Is this possible to do with karmic's gdm?  Or is it too brain-dead to pull this off?
[02:23] <baltadt> what is the command to delete a duplicate directory that has root permission
[02:23] <webdawg> which is faster:  Banshee or Amarok?
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  i recall somewhere that  many adavanced features gdm had are not in the default that 9.10 has.. people have had to use the older gdm for some features.
[02:25] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: uhgh.  lobotomized, then.
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  and i mean fetures other then the lack of themeing. :) but i dont recall teh details of what advanced features were in the old. and not in the new.
[02:25] <git__> Dr_Willis, do u know much about acpi in 9.10?
[02:25] <PinkFreud> may just have to install kdm.  :/
[02:25] <muppet> howdy all
[02:25] <baltadt> what is the command to delete a duplicate directory that has root permissions
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  thats what i got on this box right now.  kdm
[02:25] <git__> i think acpi in 9.1 is terribly broken
[02:26] <iAmerikan> sudo rm -rf directory
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> baltadt: still not taken tiume to read some bash tutorals eh. :)
[02:26] <baltadt> ty
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> !bash
[02:26] <muppet> can anyone confirm this as a bug with packagekit? karmic-64: Gtk-Message? Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module": libpk-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:26] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: it doesn't really matter that much for me - I'm just trying to get a remote graphical login one way or another.
[02:26] <N7iii> hi guys, this is my firstime get into IRC lol~
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> PinkFreud:  i tend to install xming on windows and ssh -x over. :)
[02:26] <muppet> N7iii: hi & welcome
[02:27] <baltadt> Dr_Willis: I need to remove it now because it is messing up my website
[02:27] <PinkFreud> Dr_Willis: naaa, no Windows here.  just *nix.  :)
[02:27] <baltadt> but i will
[02:27] <L0rD`> baltadt: sudo rm -rf /name/of/the/directory/place or rmdir /directory/place...
[02:27] <undecim> ardchoille: Make sure there is no "quiet" option there as well. I don't remember if the quite option was removed from Karmic final or not. But otherwise, yes, that is how you go about that. Alternatively, you can just remove quiet, and have both the splash screen AND text.
[02:27] <PinkFreud> I've stuffed Karmic into a Xen domU, which, of course, is headless.
[02:27] <PinkFreud> iow, starting an X server is useless.  :)
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> baltadt:  you might want to 'sudo apt-get install mc'  then 'sudo mc' and learn to use mc
[02:28] <N7iii> thanks u man
[02:28] <ardchoille> undecim: Ok, the "quiet" is still there in Karmic when I installed it yesterday. Thanks for the advice :)
[02:28] <fumbles> so I'm copying an image of my windows installation to a new disk (upgrade) and will tar up the linux partition. I can just simply reinstall grub2 with a live usb correct?
[02:28] <Dr_Willis> fumbles:  your UUID's may be changed depenign on what you do exactly
[02:28] <tekonivel-o> bugger, no space on / to update Jaunty to Karmik
[02:29]  * tekonivel-o sighs
[02:29] <fumbles> Dr_Willis: It's a new hardrive so I believe the UUID's will
[02:29] <fumbles> I could just copy the custom_40 file from my /etc/grub.d/
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> fumbles:  the tune2fs command can change uuids :) that may be easier then finding all the other places where UUIDs are used.
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> bye all..
[02:30] <Brandon_> I just installed 9.10 it won't boot normally, just in recovery mode. I had a problem with the /dev/disk/by-uuid directory being missing in the busybox shell, but that seems to be fixed. Now it hangs at the progress bar. How can I see normal text for the boot? (I've removed quiet and splash in grub)
[02:30] <fumbles> I could just update the UUIDs too...the os_prober will find the other operating systems as well as my custom_40 :x
[02:32] <Wilabob> Can anyone help me? I'm using the live CD because I updated to grub2 and I now have error 15. I was using a separate /boot partition because of an old bios. I tried this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Err15 but I still can't boot. Is it possible that when I updated it didn't install to my /boot partition but to my linux partition instead? If so can I fix it? I don't want to reinstall!! PLEASE HELP!
[02:33] <Wilabob> Or can I reinstall without losing some packages and wireless drivers?
[02:33] <undecim> Wilabob: If you hold down shift while grub is loading (right after you see your laptop manufacturer logo), do you get a menu?
[02:34] <Wilabob> undecim: let me check I'm on the live cd right now..
[02:34] <jchico> Hello, does anybody know how to fix the problem where my sound suddenly just stops working? It happens when I am listening to music on RhythmBox and then I try to watch some flash video. It didn't do this before.
[02:34] <Brandon_> So, no way to turn off that progress bar at boot?
[02:35] <Wilabob> undecim: Nope just GRUB Loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, please wait... Error15
[02:37] <undecim> Wilabob: okay, make sure (using a livecd) that your /boot partition is intact. (i.e. you can find files on it)
[02:37] <X-Sleepy-X> Any help would be appreciated: nano a Error reading /home/user/.nano_history: Permission denied Press Enter to continue starting nano.
[02:38] <Ubee> How can I add more codex to my openplayer so that I can burn dvds?
[02:38] <Wilabob> undecim: How do I find that? click filesystem?
[02:38] <undecim> Wilabob: Yes. you should be able to access it as if it were a thumb drive.
[02:38] <Wilabob> undecim: It's still there when I do sudo fdisk -l
[02:39] <undecim> Make sure you can see files on it.
[02:39] <Wilabob> undecim: but I've never been able to access it from the filesystem menu
[02:39] <git__> i think ubuntu 9.1 is pretty unstable
[02:39] <kieutrongduc> howto install ubuntu anhd window
[02:39] <undecim> Wilabob: Do you get an error when you try to do so?
[02:40] <undecim> git__: Agreed.
[02:40] <Wilabob> undecim: just wait for me to load the cd then I can give you more info.... OK loaded one sec
[02:40] <X-Sleepy-X> Anyone knows what's wrong with my nano?
[02:41] <wrektjet> how do u check your last reboot?
[02:41] <Wilabob> undecim: OK clicked filesystem then clicked boot and there are files but I'm not sure that this is my /boot partiton
[02:42] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: you first used nano as root (or with sudo)
[02:42] <ardchoille> wrektjet: check when you last rebooted?
[02:42] <zack9000> ver irc.efnet.net
[02:42] <wrektjet> yes ardchoille While i was away
[02:42] <ardchoille> wrektjet: uptime
[02:42] <wrektjet> for a few days
[02:42] <wrektjet> thnx
[02:42] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: sudo chown ${USER}.${USER} /home/user/.nano_history
[02:42] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: I used nano to edit /etc/apache2/php.ini and I used Ctrl+W to search and then pasted some text and saved.
[02:43] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: the first time, it was run as root
[02:43] <happy_> run the command I gave you
[02:43] <Wilabob> undecim: But on sudo fdisk -l I can see that it's there as /dev/sda1
[02:43] <Brandon_> so, I haven't managed to boot 9.10 to the desktop yet. Is this version just totally broken?
[02:43] <undecim> Wilabob: The boot partition should include the grub directory and files with names starting with initrd..img, vmlinuz
[02:44] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_:  Thanks alot!
[02:44] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: np
[02:44] <eightyeight> hmmm
[02:44] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: I dunno why that helped though because the owner and group already was my username on that file...
[02:44] <Wilabob> undecim: under filesystem I see boot when clicking on it I can see the grub folder and there are some files
[02:45] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: it wasn't that was the problem
[02:45] <wrektjet> hey i have a small issue witha program i run as a server. its running off of java and i know its still working but i cant get to the instance thats already in use.
[02:45] <nooneinhere> wrektjet, ps aux|grep [nameofisntance]
[02:46] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: it happens all the time. It happens when you use sudo and it does not exist yet
[02:46] <Wilabob> undecim: oh... found my /boot partition It has a lot of files including the folder grub. But there is also a boot folder on my linux partition and I think that is the problem.
[02:47] <zapconquest> !ops | McLeansCanada
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> What did I do?
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> I haven't said anything
[02:47] <ae86-drifter> what can i do to improve my system's performance, im running 9.10, with LXDE and google chrome, any other suggestions?
[02:47] <McLeansCanada> and I am being reported
[02:47] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: ls -lh .bash_history -rw------- 1 username username   26 2010-01-12 03:31 .bash_history     sudo chown ${USER}.${USER} /home/username/.nano_history     ls -lh .bash_history -rw------- 1 username username   26 2010-01-12 03:31 .bash_history
[02:47] <happy_> jrib: what did McLeansCanada do? He looks innocent
[02:48] <jrib> happy_: see his part message
[02:48] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, you are running a live cd right now?
[02:48] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:48] <Wilabob> undecim: Yes
[02:48] <happy_> jrib: ah, I skip that stuff :-\
[02:48] <undecim> okay. Unmount (i.e. eject) any hard drives that you have opened with the file browser.
[02:48] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: That's what it looked like... :S
[02:49] <undecim> Wilabob: okay. Unmount (i.e. eject) any hard drives that you have opened with the file browser. (sorry, keep forgetting to highlight my replies)
[02:49] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: no idea
[02:49] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:49] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay done
[02:49] <undecim> Once you have done that, open a terminal.
[02:49] <Wilabob> undecim: K
[02:49] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: and only your command worked not just sudo chown username:username .bash_history
[02:49] <ae86-drifter> im running 9.10, with LXDE and google chrome, any other suggestions to improve my system's performance? its only got 256mb RAM nad p3 350MHz
[02:49] <ae86-drifter> i mean p2
[02:50] <geitenneuker> yeah
[02:50] <geitenneuker> do not use ubuntu
[02:50] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: maybe you are a different user. Were you typing the user wrong? lol
[02:50] <wrektjet> nooneinhere, i have been playing around with the ps command and i can indeed confirm the identity of the process but how can i open the already running process
[02:50] <undecim> Wilabob: not mount your main partition to /mnt with the command "sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt" where /dev/sdXY is the location of you main partition.
[02:50] <ubuntu> oki
[02:50] <wrektjet> i know i can kill it all java apps and open a new one but id really ratrher not nooneinhere
[02:50] <blakkheim> ae86-drifter: not use a DE
[02:51] <blakkheim> ae86-drifter: or what geitenneuker said :/
[02:51] <nooneinhere> wrektjet, what do you mean you want to "open" a process?  If the process has a GUI and it's not opening up then something is wrong
[02:51] <ae86-drifter> blakkheim, ok i understand, it is a server pc, i rarely go into DE anyways, only to edit text files etc..
[02:51] <hari_> I again
[02:51] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, it says mount: can't find /dev/sda6 in /ect/fstab or /ect/mtab
[02:51] <hari_> haha
[02:51] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: What other programs do you have installed?  I decided on a puppy linux install when I had 128 megs of RAM..   I've heard LXDE is lighter than XFCE though.
[02:51] <X-Sleepy-X> happy_: Can't say for sure since I deleted the history... Oh, well. I'm grateful for your help on this matter. :D
[02:51] <happy_> X-Sleepy-X: np
[02:52] <eric_3> hey i have an xubuntu with a WLAN and LAN card. I also have a windows xp w/ a LAN card. there is no ethernet port near the Windows XP. i was wondering if i could route the Windows XP ethernet through the Xubuntu and use it's WLAN to connect to the network. Is this possible?
[02:52] <geitenneuker> use gentoo thats fast
[02:52] <wrektjet> nooneinhere i guess its a bug then. whenever my comp reboots i cant get to the gui
[02:52] <undecim> Wilabob: can you post the output of "sudo fdisk -l" to pastebin, with comments explaining what each partition is
[02:52] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, i have heaps of programs installed, it runs fairly quickly, just when i have more than 4 or 5 windows open it starts to lag a bit
[02:52] <eric_3> help?
[02:52] <nightfrog> ae86-drifter: a server with gui?
[02:52] <happy_> geitenneuker: I you trying to find gentoo converts on teh ubuntu channel?
[02:53] <Wilabob> undecim: I can't get on the internet without installing drivers with ndiswrapper
[02:53] <undecim> Wilabob: Although I think that error may just been a typo on your end.
[02:53] <ae86-drifter> nightfrog, its a server, yes but i also have a dedicated server which is seperate and more powerful, but i need this as a workstation occasionally hence the GUI
[02:54] <eric_3> undecim: when you are done i would like to speak with you is that ok?
[02:54] <Wilabob> undecim: Okay I'm looking for a partition that says linux on the side?
[02:54] <nightfrog> ae86-drifter: ok
[02:54] <joshua__> anybody got a X -> vnc translator that implements xrender?
[02:54] <ae86-drifter> nightfrog, i like redundancy... i have about 6 linux boxes set up here
[02:54] <undecim> eric_3: sure.
[02:54] <eric_3> thanks
[02:55] <hari_> mmm i have a problem my printer does not print
[02:55] <Wilabob> undecim: But I know for sure that it's sda6 because it has 50GBs and that's what my linux partition has
[02:55] <crankharder> what /dev/* should I be looking for my USB exteral drive to be on?
[02:55] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Yeah, my xubuntu install is not utilizing my graphics card fully, so I'm considering going to LXDE even with 528 megs...  I've heard they're trying to start a canonical supported lubuntu release after Lucid.
[02:55] <joshua__> crankharder /dev/sda??
[02:56] <joshua__> sorry, /dev/sd??
[02:56] <crankharder> joshua__: nope, not there
[02:56] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, cool, i really like LXDE, its got more than enough features for a desktop
[02:57] <Wilabob> undecim: What should I do now? I still get that error when I type sudo mount /dev/sda6
[02:57] <hari_> yes I again my problem with cups
[02:57] <undecim> Wilabob: We need to know what each of your partitions are supposed to be.
[02:58] <undecim> Wilabob: take a look at fstab on your root partition
[02:58] <hari_> the message says "client-error-document-format-not supported
[02:59] <Q_Continuum> Question on Evolution mail filtering.  I want to use a wildcard in the mail filter, so I can have two entries<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- but it doesn't seem to function.
[02:59] <Wilabob> undecim: I don't see fstab when I view my root partition. There's bin, boot, dev, ect, home... Just to name a few
[02:59] <hari_> anyone who knows about this
[03:00] <undecim> Wilabob: Sorry. I meant /etc/fstab.
[03:00] <Clark3934> I know that USB drives are not automatically mounted by default in Ubuntu Server Edition.  However, if I install ubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu server edition, does this mean that they are now automatically mounted?  Thanks.
[03:00] <hari_> please print took hours trying to no avail
[03:00] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Well, Since I'm thinking about it.... Would you recommend installing LXDE via the alternate CD, or just installing lxde in addition to XFCE, (I have enough hard disk space.)
[03:01] <ae86-drifter> Joeseph, just install "lubuntu-desktop" through synaptic ;)
[03:01] <Wilabob> undecim: don't see it under "f" there's firefox-3.0 firefox-3.5 fonts and foomatic
[03:01] <Joeseph> ae86-drifter: Alright.  I'll probably try that later.  Thanks.
[03:02] <hari_> heeelp!!
[03:02] <keepsake> ?
[03:03] <undecim> Wilabob: I think you are looking in the wrong place. You need to use the file browser to look at the main partition of your installed system and read the file /etc/fstab with a text editor. In there will be auto-generated comments (lines starting with #) explaining each partition.
[03:03] <eric_3> hari_ what type of printer is it?
[03:03] <ae86-drifter> hari_, has it worked to begin with?
[03:03] <ae86-drifter> it better be a brother printer
[03:04] <hari_> the printer is hp deskjet d2360
[03:04] <eric_3> my thought was epson becuase my dad had to change things in .config for it
[03:04] <eric_3> sorry
[03:04] <ae86-drifter> brother printers suck to install, especially since 8.10
[03:05] <keepsake> Didn't Brother release Linux drivers?
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> yes, but you need to mkdir /usr/share/[model]
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> and roll back libpoppler
[03:05] <hari_> mmm my ubuntu is 9.10!
[03:05] <ae86-drifter> then install LPR driver
[03:06] <keepsake> Oh yeah, it's the CUPS/LPR stuff =\
[03:06] <hari_> ok
[03:06] <ae86-drifter> then install cupswrapper driver
[03:06] <Wilabob> undecim: Ha! Found it... It was hidden
[03:06] <keepsake> I got mine to work, but that was awhile ago =X
[03:06] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:06] <undecim> Wilabob: So you understand now what each of your partitions are?
[03:06] <PinkFreud> yep, kdm did the trick
[03:07] <PinkFreud> headless display manager works now.
[03:07] <Wilabob> undecim: Yep, but I already knew what each of my partitions are for...
[03:07] <cg> is there a way to create + run virtual machines via command line in karmic server edition?
[03:07] <eric_3> undecim: are you free?
[03:08] <undecim> eric_3: still helping out Wilabob.
[03:08] <eric_3> k sorry
[03:08] <Wilabob> undecim: it says / was on  /dev/sda6 during installation and /boot was on /dev/sda1 during installation
[03:08] <Wilabob> undecim: and swap was on /dev/sda7
[03:10] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, so now in a terminal, type "mount | grep sda6" to find out if and where the root partition is mounted.
[03:10] <lotus> hi, how can I make the led on my usb drive turn off from the command line?
[03:11] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, it went through and nothing happened
[03:11] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, now type this command exactly: "sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt"
[03:12] <Wilabob> undecim: done
[03:12] <undecim> lotus: I don't think it is possible to do that.
[03:12] <eric_3> lotus: sounds like an interesting question. I am not an expert but i think that it is a hardware thing. But it may be that the os controls that
[03:12] <Maximiliano> buenaas
[03:12] <undecim> Wilabob: Okay, now type this command: "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"
[03:12] <undecim> Wilabob: Im sorry, wait.
[03:12] <lotus> undecim: why?  The right-click safely remove usb drive option does just that
[03:13] <superjet_busy> is there a packages list that ubuntu dropped after or before rsync from debian?
[03:13] <eric_3> that just ubmounts it
[03:13] <lotus> eric_3: I think it might be a hardware thing, but somehow the OS is able to make that happen
[03:13] <undecim> Wilabob: type this command: "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot"
[03:13] <undecim> lotus: That's because it stops the device.
[03:13] <lotus> eric_3: not true.  When I unmount it manually, the light doesn't turn off
[03:13] <Wilabob> undecim: done
[03:13] <lotus> undecim: how can I stop the device by hand?
[03:13] <undecim> lotus: if that's what you meant, you can use "sudo unmount [device or path]"
[03:13] <eric_3> when you click safley remove (bad spelling) it just unmounts it so no data or power is sent to it
[03:14] <eric_3> k sorry
[03:14] <lotus> undecim: eric_3: I've tried that, it doesn't kill the light :D
[03:14] <keepsake> lotus: What about "umount"? =P
[03:15] <undecim> Wilabob: okay, now type "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda"
[03:15] <lotus> keepsake: yah that's the command i was issuing.  Are you saying unmount is different?
[03:15] <ouyes> how is the support of ubuntu to dual core cpu ?
[03:15] <keepsake> lotus: Nah, I'm pretty sure it's just umount.
[03:15] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, its good
[03:15] <ouyes> ae86-drifter, how you know that ?
[03:15] <keepsake> ouyes: Personally I've had issues with the 32-bit, but the 64-bit works flawlessly.
[03:16] <undecim> lotus: Come to think of it, that makes some sense... I think maybe there is a DBus call that can be used. After I'm done helping/talking with some people, I'll look for it.
[03:16] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, because i use ubuntu
[03:16] <lotus> keepsake: yah.  I did a "sudo umount /dev/sdb*" and the light is still on
[03:16] <eric_3> perhaps it is still connected when you do that thus allowing for re mounting on other users but when you safley remove it assumes that you are not going to connect to it again. Tell me, when you click safely remove can you remount w/ out having to pul out dirve and put back in?
[03:16] <ouyes> keepsake,  so you think it better to use 32bit ?
[03:16] <lotus> undecim: cool thankyou :D  I found something about a suspend command but I'm not sure I'm doing it right.  http://elliotli.blogspot.com/2009/01/safely-remove-usb-hard-drive-in-linux.html was the page I found it on
[03:16] <crankharder> so if not /dev/sd* where might a USB HD be showing up?
[03:16] <crankharder> ls /dev/hd*
[03:16] <keepsake> ouyes: Yes, if Ubuntu can detect your cores correctly.
[03:17] <lotus> eric_3: I'm not sure let me try to find out
[03:17] <Wilabob> undecim: That didn't work, it gave me all the usages for grub-install
[03:17] <eric_3> k
[03:17] <Wilabob> undecim: I typed exactly: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/dev/sda
[03:17] <lotus> eric_3: no, it's not listed in fdisk -l anymore
[03:18] <undecim> Wilabob: I'm sorry... more mistakes from me again. I believe that the = should be a space instead.
[03:18] <ouyes> ae86-drifter, keepsake  i found that the two core of my dual amd cpu were always at the same usage level 38% or 100%, it seems the ubuntu only recognized them just one
[03:18] <ae86-drifter> ouyes, either that or it balances the CPU load!
[03:18] <Wilabob> undecim: Nope that didn't work either.
[03:18] <undecim> Wilabob: Also, make sure you are getting the space between /mnt and /dev/sda
[03:18] <keepsake> ouyes: Do a "sudo cat /etc/proc/cpuinfo"
[03:18] <eric_3> than when you click safely remove it assumes that you are going to take the drive out. And unmount allows you to remount on new user w/ out have to pull out stick
[03:19] <eric_3> does that make sense
[03:19] <eric_3> ?
[03:19] <undecim> Wilabob: It's a little difficult to see the spaces on some IRC clients.
[03:19] <HandyGandy> I'm running the x64 version of Koala. I installed kde. Now I am trying to uninstall mysql, but apt tries to remove kde. Any idea why? Or if I can fix it?
[03:19] <lotus> eric_3: yeah lots of sense.  I still want that functionality at the command line, though.  I know it's there, but I'm not sure how to invoke it.
[03:19] <ouyes> keepsake, no such a file
[03:20] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:20] <keepsake> Oops
[03:20] <keepsake> my bad
[03:20] <keepsake> ouyes: It should be "sudo cat /cpu/procinfo"
[03:20] <Wilabob> undecim: Oh, it did something else... It said unrecognized option --root-directory when I left the = in and put a space between /mnt and /dev/sda
[03:21] <eric_3> lotus: i think it must be a hardware thing. I may not be correct though so don't stand by my answer. I think that it might also be the flash drive (hence hardware) because diffrent flash drives only have the light turn on when they are being accessed.
[03:21] <ouyes> keepsake, again no such a file
[03:21] <betabot> Hey. I have an encrypted home folder (done during install of 9.10,) and today I added a ssh-agent script to my .profile. Now when I log in it graphically prompts me for an id_rsa passphrase... but the one I set doesn't work, and continuing brings me back to the log-in screen. Any suggestions?
[03:22] <lotus> eric_3: thanks for the thoughts
[03:22] <eric_3> lotus: any time
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: What are you running?
[03:22] <hari_>  i can't understand
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: I'm really stupid, also. "sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[03:22] <ouyes> keepsake, does the directory cpu exist?
[03:22] <betabot> Right now I am logged in as root, and none of the eCryptfs stuff is working
[03:22] <undecim> Wilabob: Try "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/  /dev/sda" I copied that straight from help.ubuntu.com to make sure that I'm getting the details correct.
[03:22] <nooneinhere> how do you configure a wireless nic in ubuntu using wpa2 personal?  The laptop config asks for a Password but in the router the option is "shared Key", where do I configure the password in the router?
[03:22] <michael____> Recently, my usb drives have stopped showing up when I attach them. Can anyone offer any suggestions on why that may be or how I can fix it?
[03:22] <keepsake> ouyes: It's /proc/cpuinfo, sorry; I'm running Windows right now so I couldn't check =P
[03:22] <shawn146> hello?

[03:24] <keepsake> ouyes: Dunno =P. Have you done the "sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo"?
[03:24] <undecim> eric_3: I'm not sure If I finally fixed Wilabob's Grub or not. I haven't gotten a response from him. But I can talk. If he comes back, I can multi-task.
[03:24] <shawn146> the external editor
[03:25] <joshua__> you mean vi isn't an external editor?
[03:25] <elikem> are you playing a game?

[03:29] <jdcasey> I have a mactel mini with ubuntu jaunty installed on it and refit boot cd, but after a power interruption it's no longer booting. does anyone have any ideas?
[03:29] <ubuntu> i keep trying to change the default user logged in for my casper-rw usb install but it keeps defaulting the live session user named ubuntu. i have changed the login setting to "present users to log in" and also "auto login my user that I created" but it just keeps going back to live user.
[03:29] <aLeSD> hi all
[03:29] <hari_> help me please
[03:29] <keepsake> ouyes: It tells you how to use pastebin. Basically, go to www.pastebin.com and paste it there =P
[03:29] <kraitos> does anybody know if songbird supports mp3 players?
[03:29] <ubuntu> jdcasey, you mean the install was successful or it wasn't?

[03:29] <keepsake> ouyes: Go to www.pastebin.com
[03:30] <ouyes> keepsake,  i see
[03:30] <jdcasey> ubuntu: yeah, and it's been running for a couple months this way...but after this power interruption, it's not booting
[03:30] <ubuntu> jdcasey, if the install was completed and successful, then a power outage shouldn't have ruined your install.
[03:30] <aLeSD> I'm compiling ardour 2.8.4 by source code. Do you suggest me to uninstalll the official ubuntu package (2.8.2) or install it on the official one ? Or there's a way to create a deb package by the compiled source ?
[03:30] <hari_> ok, obottu
[03:30] <keepsake> ouyes: However, if proc/cpuinfo lists 2 CPUs, they're both detected and so you're fine.
[03:30] <hari_> :D
[03:30] <jdcasey> ubuntu: I'm not sure why the ubuntu partiion wouldn't be booting now. refit is still loading, but when it tries to boot ubuntu, I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor
[03:31] <Wilabob> undecim: One question.. Am I on grub2 now? I'm trying to get a splashimage up and I need to know what one I'm on...
[03:31] <joshua__> ever see a dual socket motherboard with quad cores in it?
[03:31] <ouyes> keepsake, the screen was dead just now
[03:31] <undecim> Wilabob: Yes, this is grub2 now.
[03:31] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, Thanks
[03:31] <keepsake> ouyes: What exactly do you mean?
[03:32] <undecim> Wilabob: Much pretty splashscreens with this one.
[03:32] <saptech> does anyone know if I'm using karmic 32bit will the partimage backup a 64bit distro?
[03:32] <Wilabob> undecim: Yeah, that's the reason I got in this mess :P

[03:33] <ouyes> keepsake, you know what i mean? i can only stay here but can not change to anther window or task
[03:33] <keepsake> ouyes: Did you do a lot of software updates? Try restarting or something =P I don't actually know that much about ubuntu, so can't really help you there.
[03:34] <ouyes> keepsake, it is ok
[03:34] <ouyes> keepsake, il restart it
[03:34] <saptech> joshua_, ok thanks
[03:34] <ubuntu> jdcasey, did you try to boot a livecd and run fsck on your drives. when you boot up the livecd, mount your partitions and check that they are still intact. make sure that /boot/grub/, stage1 and stage2 files etc etc
[03:34] <ubuntu> i keep trying to change the default user logged in for my casper-rw usb install but it keeps defaulting the live session user named ubuntu. i have changed the login setting to "present users to log in" and also "auto login my user that I created" but it just keeps going back to live user.

[03:38] <saptech> joshua_, i get this error when I run it. Can't read bitmap block 0 from image
[03:38] <mebaran151> huzzah, I just deleted my whole home dir by accident
[03:39] <keepsake> ouyes: The pastebin looks good.
[03:39] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: system, administration, system monitor, system tab should list 2 processors
[03:39] <joshua__> sounds like I spoke of something I had no clue of sorry?
[03:39] <joshua__> I thought partimage was a backup program
[03:39] <saptech> it is
[03:39] <saptech> creates images
[03:39] <joshua__> now I'm even more confused
[03:39] <saptech> lol
[03:39] <mebaran151> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor
[03:39] <ouyes> yes there was
[03:39] <hari_> ANY RESPONSE
[03:39] <mebaran151> that'll give you the number of processors
[03:39] <mazda01> ne1 else running karmic from a casper-rw image on a usb stick?
[03:40] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: if there are 2 processors it recognizes dual core
[03:40] <keepsake> FiReSTaRT, mebaran151: It showed 2 processors, it's fine.
[03:40] <mazda01> i can't get it to save my fstab changes, my hostname change, and several other changes.
[03:40] <saptech> let me google
[03:40] <ouyes> keepsake, but why there is always the same usage level
[03:40] <shawn146> how do i install my digital camera for a webcam?
[03:41] <keepsake> ouyes: I'm not so sure, I don't think it's a big problem. Does it feel very slow?
[03:41] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, i suggest you change you nickname, it need more time to spell
[03:41] <FiReSTaRT> shawn146: just plug it in and turn it on. you may have to set it up on the camera but after that cheese should recognize it
[03:41] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: TAB key completes the nickname :)
[03:41] <chris_lenz123> hey i got a question, why the hell did my tab bar disappear, its not here? like on the bottom of the screen showing if you have a window up, like it does not say that i am veiwing this chat? How do I get it back?
[03:42] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: type fire and press TAB
[03:42] <mebaran151> heh, I think it's always best to at least introduce the traditional unix way
[03:42] <Dravekx> how do I get XML support with Lamp on UB Server?
[03:42] <undecim> lotus: I found it! Try "devkit-disks --detach /dev/sdX" where /dev/sdX is the device you want to power down. Make sure that you leave the partition number off the end (you're turning off a physical disk, rather than a partition)
[03:42] <Dravekx> "You MUST ensure that PHP has been compiled with support for MySQL, zlib and XML"
[03:43] <Dravekx> how do I do that
[03:43] <ouyes> keepsake, yes my cpu is amd tl-62 with 2.1Ghz but it is slow and when you did nothing the cpu was 38% used in gmone
[03:43] <Dravekx> on ubuntu server?
[03:43] <keepsake> On a side note, is there an easy way to get grub2 over this fail Windows 7 bootloader without too much manipulation?
[03:43] <pec_ar> hi one of my 2 pc suddenly don't have sound with ubuntu.
[03:43] <pec_ar> the other too. wiht xubuntu. What happens?
[03:43] <keepsake> ouyes: What was using it?
[03:43] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: if you have a browser open, the flash plugin can mess with it... do u have the browser open?
[03:43] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  i know the tab mate but the FiR need more time to spell than ouy?
[03:43] <shawn146> i did connect my camera but nothing popped up
[03:44] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: u dont have to change the capitalization
[03:44] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, yes mate,
[03:44] <keepsake> ouyes: Or even, type "firestart" and press TAB to magically caps things D=

[03:45] <mzawieska> hello I have question..I am using ubuntu 9..and my Hd is cut in two partition..one is home folder and file system which is almost 1 tb...is it possiblem to partition the file system so I could have another partiton let say 500GB because i want to install on that partition windows xp
[03:45] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Are you sure you have the process "tool" in that bar?
[03:45] <shawn146> FiReSTaRT?
[03:46] <chris_lenz123> keepsake:what do you mean
[03:46] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: If you right click the bar and go to Customize (or something, it's been long), you should be able to find a place to add/remove functions/tools.
[03:46] <kaiser2011> mzawieska: you want to partition you first partition of 1tb into 500 and 500 ?
[03:47] <brando753> is there any simple tools for making historical time lines in ubuntu
[03:47] <chris_lenz123> keepsake: there is no tools, and it just happen right now when i turned my computer on
[03:48] <FiReSTaRT> shawn146: yeah?
[03:48] <mzawieska> kaiser2011, cause the 1 Tb i have I dont use it because its ubuntu file system installed...and i want to take away some GB of it because I want to install windows xp
[03:48] <mzawieska> kaiser2011, u understand what I am trying to do?
[03:48] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Argh, what do you get when you right-click the bar?
[03:48] <shawn146> i i plugged my camera in but nothing popped up
[03:48] <lotus> undecim: I'll try it and let yah know
[03:48] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  what the point of the thread ? you mean the problem was caused by flash?

[03:50] <pec_ar> mzawiesca i think you can. But its convinient to install windows first. Otherwise you have to reinstall grub
[03:50] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  the 64bit hardware or the 64bit ubutnu?
[03:50] <trism> !who | undecim
[03:50] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: i know..  but the fan comes on when the cpu starts goin' apeshit so i know when to kill the process
[03:51] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: 64bit ubuntu.. the plugin is really a 32bit plugin under wrapper, so its a bit buggy
[03:51] <mzawieska> pec_ar, but I already have everything on ubuntu...all my apps
[03:51] <hbsmiley7> Hey, what are some of the most useful default shortcuts in Ubuntu?
[03:51] <chris_lenz123> shit, i just delete the panel
[03:51] <chris_lenz123> how do i get it back

[03:51] <fatum> and #dns pointed me to #apache
[03:51] <fatum> I'm very confused
[03:51] <undecim> trism: thanks!
[03:51] <catmando> I'd like to have all the documentation @ my bedside to read
[03:52] <catmando> Because frankly, it may take me a while to read all this stuff.
[03:52] <catmando> Anyway, I'd like to buy a book on the subject that covers everything @ the website for it. Any suggestions?
[03:52] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: that's weird.. well if u go under processes you'll see which one's the most power-hungry
[03:52] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Er, hold on a second.
[03:52] <catmando> I'd be willing to pay maybe as much as $100 for it

[03:52] <pec_ar> i think that's ok you will install grub again after installing xp
[03:52] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: look it up and tell me
[03:52] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT, the 32bit ubuntu gets a better software support
[03:53] <pec_ar> mzawieska i think that's ok you will install grub again after installing xp
[03:53] <keepsake> chris_lenz123: Try following these instructions: http://www.watchingthenet.com/restore-panels-in-ubuntu-back-to-their-default-settings.html

[03:54] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  they are changing so fast
[03:54] <shawn146> can anybody help me?
[03:54] <keepsake> mzawieska: Use qtparted to make a new partition out of free space.
[03:54] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  you cannot tell which is the biggest
[03:54] <pec_ar> mzawieska with the partition editor you can make a partition smaller and create another
[03:55] <wrektjet> is there a way to put passwords/locks on folders even when thers only one user
[03:55] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  xchat is 4%
[03:55] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  music player is 4%
[03:55] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: xchat is usually nothing
[03:55] <shawn146> ?
[03:55] <shawn146> ok

[03:56] <FiReSTaRT> ouyes: you must be running a whole lot of stuff
[03:56] <keepsake> mzawieska: Since Jaunty you're to use Partition Manager
[03:56] <keepsake> !partitionmanager | mzawieska
[03:56] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  no only 3
[03:57] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  i do install a lot of applications but i run a few at a time

[04:00] <keepsake> mzawieska: Did you close the original window that popped up?
[04:00] <ouyes> FiReSTaRT,  when you do nothing the cpu is running at  800Mhz,so the usage displayed was 38% a bit high, but when you run a few applications the cpu will be running an 2.1Ghz

[04:01] <mzawieska> keepsake, after the pw nothing showing up
[04:01] <ae86-drifter> Xfact switch to a virtual term, type top, then type kill [pid]
[04:01] <keepsake> mzawieska: In Terminal, if you type in partitionman and then TAB what do you get?
[04:01] <Wilabob> Hi guys, I'm trying to use a splash image but when I restart I get the font colour change but the background doesn't change... It seems to work when I type sudo update-grub... It says it found debian image (image name here)
[04:02] <Xfact> anyone knows any command or shortcut keys or something that helps to forcefully escape from a corrupted programs (e.g full-screen games)?
[04:02] <undecim> Wilabob: How are you going about changing the background?
[04:02] <Wilabob> undecim: The "splash screen"
[04:02] <ouyes> keepsake, you know the words zhangsam2  typeed?
[04:02] <keepsake> ouyes: Yes, of course =P
[04:02] <devunt> .kr
[04:02] <mzawieska> keepsake, if i type partiton and tab its partitionmanager
[04:03] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: yes that's sounds useful but , I am new in linux so difficult to understand, anyone can explain with easy lang?
[04:03] <undecim> Wilabob: The "splash screen" as in the glowing Ubuntu log, or before that?
[04:03] <ouyes> keepsake, how do you know ?google translation
[04:03] <Wilabob> undecim: The splash screen in GRUB
[04:03] <keepsake> ouyes: No, I'm Chinese.
[04:04] <keepsake> mzawieska: Try running "dpkg -l partitionmanager | grep /bin/"
[04:04] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, hold ctrl+alt+press f5, type top, press enter, find the PID for the process(eg 3d game), then type kill [pid] and press enter
[04:04] <Wilabob> undecim: Like this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20&%20Theming
[04:04] <mzawieska> keepsake, done..
[04:04] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: thanks I am trying
[04:04] <keepsake> mzawieska: Any output?
[04:05] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, you will need to do ctrl alt f7 after that !! lol
[04:05] <ouyes> keepsake,  i see here are all kinds of people , quite a few chinese
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, nothing showed up
[04:05] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: yea i know that thanks
[04:05] <keepsake> ouyes: Of course, this is a pretty big community, after all D=
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, other program maybe I could use?
[04:05] <keepsake> mzawieska: Have you done "sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager"?
[04:05] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: i can also use ctrl+alt+F1 to run in console
[04:05] <Wilabob> undecim: I followed the instructions to change the font colour and the splash screen but only the font colour changes...
[04:05] <mzawieska> keepsake, maybe gnome partition editor
[04:06] <undecim> Wilabob: I could be wrong, but I think that Grub2 requires one of a few specific image formats. Are you using one from the package that the tutorial mentions or one of your own?
[04:06] <mzawieska> keepsake, sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager
[04:06] <ae86-drifter> Xfact u can useMOST of the "f" keys
[04:06] <keepsake> mzawieska: You can try the GNOME one if it works for you; otherwise, I'd try installing with "sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager".
[04:06] <mzawieska> keepsake, mzawieska@mzawieska-desktop:~$ dpkg -l partitionmanager | grep /bin/
[04:06] <mzawieska> mzawieska@mzawieska-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg -i partitionmanager

[04:06] <ouyes> keepsake, lunch time :)
[04:07] <keepsake> mzawieska: Don't paste the entire output here. Pastebin it if you need to paste many lines.
[04:07] <mzawieska> keepsake, oki
[04:07] <keepsake> mzawieska: Oh goodness, wrong command: "sudo apt-get install partitionmanager". It's been so long.
[04:07] <Wilabob> undecim: This is what my edited line looks like for i in {/boot/grub,/usr/share/images/desktop-base,/usr/share/images/grub}/Moraine_Lake_17092005.{png,tga} ; do
[04:07] <mzawieska> keepsake, like 20 min later the KDE partiotion manager 1.0.1 showed up
[04:08] <undecim> Wilabob: and where exactly is the image located?
[04:08] <keepsake> mzawieska: Is it in admin?
[04:08] <keepsake> mzawieska: Root/SU, I mean.
[04:08] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: most of the time when a game get corrupted then I use 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' to stop the GDM then start it again to solve the problem, it works but also closes many of my useful desktop unsaved data :(
[04:08] <Wilabob> undecim: /usr/share/images/grub
[04:08] <mzawieska> keepsake, i see two partition /dev/sda(596GiB) and /dev/sdb(0.91 TiB
[04:09] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, ah ok, hehe
[04:09] <keepsake> mzawieska: Follow this guide: http://docs.kde.org/development/en/extragear-sysadmin/partitionmanager/howto-resizepartition.html
[04:10] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: is that safe process for my ubuntu? what you think?
[04:10] <m1k3y> hey guys
[04:10] <O__o> hi, emesene dont work whats the problem?
[04:10] <perdente> hey mikey
[04:10] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, which process? the one i told you, or the one you just told me?
[04:10] <perdente> I think he likes it!
[04:10] <undecim> Wilabob: try replacing that entire line with: "for i in /usr/share/images/grub/Moraine_Lake_17092005.{png,tga} ; do"
[04:11] <O__o> it said server doesnt support protocol
[04:11] <undecim> Wilabob: you may want to copy the original line and put it in a comment above or below the new line, just in case you need to go back to it.
[04:11] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, i wouldnt use gdm stop unless it is absolutely necessary
[04:11] <Jorge> ...
[04:11] <m1k3y> i have a quick question... everytime i have system updates i get another kernal version in my grub menu now theres like 7 different one... how can i edit that?
[04:12] <Jorge> ...
[04:12] <Xfact> ae86-drifter: ohh means it's not totally safe...
[04:12] <keepsake> O__o: Probably outdated
[04:12] <O__o> keepsake, so how to solve it?
[04:12] <Wilabob> undecim: OK, restarting
[04:13] <keepsake> O__o: You'll need to use a different program, like amsn or something.
[04:13] <ae86-drifter> Xfact, im not entireley sure, but i think it kills everything running in gnome instead of just killing that actual process
[04:13] <keepsake> O__o: Or try updating emesene
[04:13] <O__o> keepsake, how to update emsene?
[04:14] <Wilabob> undecim: No, that didn't work either..
[04:14] <keepsake> O__o: In terminal, first run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade emesene"
[04:14] <Xfact> there any shortcut key available to run system monitor immediately?
[04:14] <mezquitale> m1k3y, if you want to get rid of the kernels the software you want to use i think it's called janitor, if not then just run grub-update
[04:14] <m1k3y> thanks man ill check now
[04:15] <Wilabob> undecim: Any other suggestions? does it have to be spaced out from the margin?
[04:15] <O__o> keepsake, doesnt work
[04:15] <O__o> keepsake, nothing to upgrade
[04:15] <mezquitale> which one is faster, ubuntu or mythbuntu?
[04:15] <Xfact> there any shortcut key available to run 'system monitor' immediately? (like in windows when software get corrupted then ctrl+alt+del, brings 'task manager' to kill the process in graphical way)
[04:15] <Out_Cold> Xfact, in system>admin>keyboard shortcuts you make your own
[04:15] <undecim> Wilabob: can I get a pastebin of your /boot/grub/grub.cfg? (after you've run "sudo update-grub")
[04:15] <keepsake> O__o: Can you check your version of emesene?
[04:16] <Wilabob> undecim: Yep one sec
[04:16] <ouyes> mezquitale, both ,it depends on your hardware
[04:16] <undecim> Wilabob: I will brb. I have to log out and back in to fix something I messed up :)
[04:17] <Xfact> anyone can tell me the command of system monitor or where to get the app 'system monitor' in my pc??
[04:17] <Out_Cold> Xfact, read what i told you ffs
[04:17] <Out_Cold> oh wait... sorry
[04:18] <ouyes> Xfact,  go to system>admi>monitor
[04:18] <Xfact> Out_Cold: yes i've read that already but in shortcut section it's asking for the command of system monitor first to add....
[04:19] <Out_Cold> he wants the command name of system monitor
[04:19] <undecim> stupid buggy ATI drivers....
[04:19] <undecim> Wilabob: Did I miss anything while I was gone just now?
[04:19] <ouyes> i donnot know
[04:19] <O__o> emesene 1.0.1
[04:19] <Wilabob> undecim: nope
[04:19] <ouyes> you miss a lot of lines
[04:19] <Xfact> I think this is the proper command of system monitor '/usr/bin/checkbox-gtk'
[04:20] <Wilabob> undecim: Here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/355331/
[04:20] <Out_Cold> Xfact, that's not it
[04:20] <O__o> keepsake, emesene 1.0.1
[04:21] <keepsake> O__o: The latest version is now 1.6.
[04:21] <Xfact> out_cold: sorry i think this one 'gnome-system-monitor'
[04:21] <O__o> how to update it?
[04:21] <Out_Cold> yes
[04:21] <Out_Cold> gnome-system-monitor
[04:21] <Xfact> YES it was right...
[04:22] <alexandros> anybody online?
[04:22] <Alf_Stewart> ive installed ubuntu on a usb drive but when it boots up theres a error message that says something about no boot partition or something can someone help?
[04:22] <Out_Cold> Xfact, you don't need the /usr/bin/ in fron of it either... it looks there by default
[04:22] <keepsake> O__o: Go here, and download the file somewhere: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/all/emesene/download
[04:22] <Alf_Stewart> and then it halts on the screen
[04:22] <alexandros> ubuntu  9.10   is  beta  edition or not?
[04:22] <keepsake> O__o: Next, browse to where you found the file, and then do "sudo dpkg -i emesene_1.5-1ubuntu1_all.deb"
