[04:45] <crucialhoax> bubulein: I believe that link I supplied described that.
[04:45] <frank1> yea i didnt think so
[04:46] <bubulein> crucialhoax, Thank You, the doc solved my prob.
[04:46] <frank1> it was running fine. i copied all the stuff. still working fine. than firefox crashed so i restart the comp and bam
[04:46] <frank1> whole buncha error messages
[04:46] <aetaric> doesn't alsa use the group sound and pulse use the group audio
[04:46]  * bubulein manage big server but to fool to get soud working *lol*
[04:47] <crucialhoax> bubulein: Figured it would lol. It came to me that since it was permissions you werent in the correct group.
[04:47] <frank1> ran this boot cd to try and see if the dude that helped me was online but i guess im SOL
[04:47] <aetaric> frank1: supergrub can get your computer booted again.
[04:48] <frank1> what exactly does that do?
[04:48] <charreedawn> hello
[04:48] <aetaric> it boots grub off your flashdrive and lets you detect operating systems and boot them
[04:49] <frank1> hmmm
[04:49] <bubulein> crucialhoax, seems to me that is linux prob. im runningh some bsd server and workstation. an linux becomes more and more complicated. exampl /etc ... its easier on a unix system
[04:49] <aetaric> bubulein: i like my freebsd box....
[04:51] <bubulein> aetaric, me too. but some things are easier on linux .. like the enjoy the web. i use linux to connect via ssh and to listen my music while hacking the freebsd/freenas server
[04:51] <aetaric> bubulein: i use ubuntu on my servers...
[04:52] <Guest29804> hi
[04:52] <clarkb> hello
[04:53] <aetaric> !hi | Guest29804
[04:53] <bubulein> aetaric, without to start a flame war. but for the standart server tasks a [free]bsd need less administration work
[04:53] <LiTuX> Hi
[04:53] <crucialhoax> If I were to run a server it would be a redhat based CentOS, ClearOS, or a *BSD box.
[04:53] <bubulein> aetaric, also i make a battle against a ubuntu server ( stresstest) and bsd was more stable. apache php mysql
[04:54] <Guest29804> hi can any one help me i have a graphics card problem
[04:54] <Guest29804> hi can any one help me i have a graphics card problem
[04:54] <Guest29804> hi can any one help me i have a graphics card problem
[04:54] <FloodBot4> Guest29804: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:54] <aetaric> wow
[04:54] <crucialhoax> Immaturityfail
[04:55] <phoebus> lmao
[04:55] <aetaric> killing is a bit much....
[04:55] <aetaric> maybe kickban?
[04:56] <Horus> does someone knows why is that rkhunter found a hiden directory??? and this means?? is it a malware???
[04:56] <bubulein> if you whant to run apache, just take a look what apache.org is running
[04:56] <crucialhoax> Horus: Did you look at the log? It is most likely pulseaudio
[04:56] <aetaric> who is rkhunter?
[04:56] <ZzzZzzZ> Is there a way to run Update Manager without having to enter my admin password?
[04:56] <aetaric> or what?
[04:57] <crucialhoax> aetaric: It is a rootkit hunter software for Linux.
[04:57] <aetaric> ZzzZzzZ: run it as root
[04:57] <bubulein> ZzzZzzZ, from a shellscrip/cron
[04:57] <crucialhoax> ?
[04:57] <crucialhoax> Still would need admin p/w
[04:57] <Resbaloso> It is time to put those Haitian jigaboos in their place!    Mexicali had a worse earthquake than Haiti, and only about 4 people died!  Even the housing of the poor generally held up! Meanwhile even the Haitian elites couldn't build decent buildings.  Look at what ha
[04:57] <Resbaloso> ppened to the house of their monkey president!  If you are sick of the fecal beast Join Chimpout Forum!
[04:57] <FloodBot4> Resbaloso: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:57] <Horus> no it is /dev/.udev directory
[04:58] <aetaric> then that is because of udev.
[04:58] <crucialhoax> Horus: In a terminal `gksudo gedit /var/log/rkhunter.log` post it to paste.ubuntu.com
[04:58] <aetaric> ls -A /dev/.udev/
[04:58] <crucialhoax> Horus: I will look at it.
[04:59] <aetaric> why is a rootkit software needed for linux?
[04:59] <kkerwin> Hi. What's the name of the package for handling sqlite db files in Lua?
[04:59] <crucialhoax> Horus: Here is the best way I have found to run rkhunter. First, run `sudo rkhunter --propupd`Second; `sudo rkhunter --pkgmgr dpkg --sk -c --noappend-log`
[04:59] <bubulein> *lol*
[04:59] <crucialhoax> aetaric: Because Linux can acquire rootkits.
[05:00] <aetaric> how? by opening 'girlanddog.jpeg.bin' ?
[05:00] <bazhang> aetaric, that is not appropriate for here.
[05:00] <ZzzZzzZ> bubulein: I guess I want an enhancement then....seems silly that when I login I have to enter my password twice (since I always check updates after login)....certain programs should be able to reuse credentials for a while...
[05:00] <Alcor> aetaric folks can gain access to your system.  Also can take a command like cat and modify it to put them back in your system
[05:00] <bubulein> let me explain what happens. i started exail to retest my sound issue. the resource was still unavailable. the i changed to the console and the music starts. i come back to X and the problem apear agin. but the player i was listen on the console was still exaile
[05:00] <aetaric> bazhang: i'm sorry you took that the wrong way.
[05:00] <Horus> done http://paste.ubuntu.com/416449/
[05:01] <bubulein> ZzzZzzZ, letz call it a feature
[05:01] <crucialhoax> aetaric: I am not sure how. But it is a nice utility to have. It does not run as a daemon so its not wasting anything in the background. rkhunter and chkrootkit are nice tools
[05:01] <aetaric> i happen to have a picture of my sister and her dog in my pictures dir. must everyone take something as perverted?
[05:01] <crucialhoax> Horus: I have the same messages even with a default install. No worries here. :)
[05:02] <ZzzZzzZ> bubulein: I heart biometrics
[05:02] <bazhang> !ot > aetaric
[05:03] <aetaric> !whois bazhang
[05:03] <aetaric> oh, this is still my mac.
[05:03] <Babalabon> s0 what is all the hype about ubuntu 10.4 lts, "change is coming" whats gonna be so good about it?
[05:03] <Horus> tnx its good to heard that
[05:03] <zubin71> hi, i have an apache server running. i dont want it to run as root so i have created the user 'apache'. when i login as apache and try to start the server, it fails. what should i do?
[05:04] <Flannel> Babalabon: Ask in #ubuntu+1
[05:04] <Flannel> zubin71: apache runs as www-data, not root, by default (so you don't need to do anything!)
[05:04] <aetaric> bazhang: if you have an issue with me you should just pm me. stop flooding the channel.
[05:04] <stal> Babalabon: light-themes
[05:04] <crucialhoax> Um, there is no flooding.
[05:04] <zubin71> Flannel, oh! i see...how do i find out what user a process is running as?
[05:05] <clarkb> ps
[05:05] <bubulein> ok ladies, who cares sound. if 9 other boxes around *G*
[05:05] <crucialhoax> zubin71: top
[05:05] <aetaric> crucialhoax: fine. spam.
[05:05] <zubin71> crucialhoax, thanks
[05:05] <zubin71> Flannel, thankx
[05:05] <crucialhoax> zubin71: Once you are in `top` press `u` then type the user name.
[05:05] <ravibn> zen993k : are u still available?
[05:05] <clarkb> ps -ef | grep $username
[05:06] <crucialhoax> clarkb: That command fails.
[05:06] <clarkb> why?
[05:07] <clarkb> works fine for me
[05:07] <crucialhoax> It needs to be `$USERNAME` case sensitive.
[05:07] <mobius2> greetings Ubuntu channel
[05:07] <datzy> greeting mobius2
[05:07] <clarkb> crucialhoax: only if you are looking for processes you own
[05:07] <clarkb> otherwise you want to replace the variable with the username of the user you are looking for
[05:08] <clarkb> which is sorta what I was hoping to imply there...
[05:08] <mobius2> I think the most recent updates I installed for my Karmic koala install have somehow broken my Torcs racecar game
[05:08] <crucialhoax> clarkb: I typed in $username and got a correct usage display.
[05:08] <bubulein> bye and thx
[05:08] <datzy> bubulein: hi
[05:08] <clarkb> $username was a variable for you to replace not for $SHELL to replace :)
[05:08] <crucialhoax> clarkb: Duh. I digress.
[05:08] <bubulein> hi datzy
[05:09] <crucialhoax> clarkb: I gotcha lol *headdesk* lol
[05:09] <phani> Hi.. I am having hardy 8.04 version Whenever I minimizing the browser window it will appear towards the bottom right cornet rather than appearing at the task bar. Any suggestions on how to display on taskbar ?
[05:10] <mobius2> Torcs gives a strange error about an .xml file being corrupted.... I  tried to do   <apt-get remove> torcs  but when I did that and tried to re install the game,  it was as if the program was never really uninstalled at all...as if a local copy of the installation files were kept?
[05:10] <crucialhoax> phani: Your current open windows do not display anymore?
[05:10] <mobius2> can someone tell me how to boot to an older kernel image in ubuntu karmic koala?
[05:10] <phani> crucialhoax: everything shows in right hand bottom corner only
[05:10] <Flannel> mobius2: You want to purge, not simply remove, remove just removes the binaries, purge removes all the support files as well (also, check for -data packages or other torcs specific packages it might have brought in)
[05:11] <scunizi> mobius2: perhaps.. in /home/<username>  as a hidden file.. in home type ls -la and you should be able to see everything.. or in nautilus ctrl+h to reveal hidden directories.
[05:11] <crucialhoax> phani: Is the window list applet added to the bottom panel?
[05:11] <mobius2> excellent guys thanks
[05:11] <Flannel> mobius2: looks like there's torcs-data that you might have installed (also -data-cars and -data-trains)
[05:11] <phani> yes
[05:11] <scunizi> mabus: purge doesn't always eliminate configuration files in your home
[05:11] <crucialhoax> phani: I am not sure I understand then...
[05:12] <mabus> scunizi: good to know
[05:12] <mobius2> I am going to paste the command line error to pastebin,  if anyone would be kind enough  to  have a look at it I would be most thankful
[05:13] <zachary> hello
[05:13] <phani> crucilahoax: here is my query i have firefox and chrome opened along with a terminal and everything shows in right hand bottom corner.. but not in the taskbar.. I need to use Alt to switch back to windows
[05:13] <Guest193> hello
[05:14] <Guest193> can anyone here help me with resolution issues?
[05:14] <crucialhoax> phani: So there is no icon in the bottom panel listing or showing your open windows? when they minimize they seem to `disappear`?
[05:14] <mabus> !ask
[05:14] <phani> exactly
[05:14] <scunizi> Guest193: depends.. we need more info.. graphics card type ati, nvidia, intel etc.. and model #
[05:15] <Guest193> i only have two resolution options, and can't type in my password when i run sudo commands. anything i can do about this?
[05:15] <mobius2> http://pastebin.com/DH6gUgRP     contains the Torcs game command line error
[05:15] <crucialhoax> phani: Ok, go to the far left of the bottom panel, right click, choose add to panel, then scroll down and choose window list.
[05:15] <clarkb> Guest193: why cant you type in the password?
[05:15] <mobius2> I think I have a corrupted file called .torcs/config/graph.xml
[05:16] <mobius2> I did the purge but that seemed  just like "remove" argument
[05:16] <Guest193> clarkb: not sure. it just won't let me type anything.
[05:16] <clarkb> Guest193: it wont echo the characters you type
[05:16] <clarkb> of *'s etc
[05:16] <clarkb> but it will take teh input
[05:16] <mobius2> I thought I would  just re install the  whole thing.....  kinda lame considering it's just a small file that s depracated ,  however  I do not know of any way to obatin  this file or rebuild it
[05:17] <ls1024> Anyone else have the speed issue with 802.11n (<60 Mbps) with the iwlagn driver?
[05:17] <crucialhoax> mobius2: Then after that type `locate torc`
[05:17] <Guest193> clarkb: yeah. not sure what to do about it.
[05:17] <crucialhoax> ls1024: I believe so =( it does not seem to recognize N yet.
[05:17] <mobius2> crucialhoax,  okay
[05:17] <Flannel> mobius2: Everything in your homedir will create itself, so copy .mobius to .mobius-back, and then you'll start fresh
[05:17] <clarkb> Guest193: just type your password in carefully and hit enter
[05:17] <Flannel> mobius2: er, sorry, .torcs to .torcs-back
[05:17] <clarkb> when you enter passwords on the command line echo is typically turned off. This is a security measure
[05:17] <ls1024> crucialhoax: It connects fine to my 5 GHz N network, but the speeds are very much maxed at what I can get with G. :(
[05:18] <ls1024> I hope it gets fixed and released with lucid!
[05:18] <Guest193> clarkb: well, it's not appearing at all when i type.
[05:18] <clarkb> Guest193: thats the idea
[05:18] <crucialhoax> ls1024: I am using a 5100 series card with the iwlagn module and N speeds do not seem to be any better. I read somewhere that N is not fully supported in Linux or something. Cant remember exactly.
[05:19] <Guest193> clarkb: huh...ok, thanks. i'll try that.
[05:19] <ls1024> crucialhoax: Well, here's to hoping full N support in Linux arrives soon!
[05:19] <jhambo> Can I resize partitions on an HFS+ formatted hard drive (mounted via usb)?
[05:20] <crucialhoax> Guest193: When you execute `sudo` commands it hides the password, nothing will appear but you are typing.
[05:20] <jamroom> how can i see which drivers are loading?
[05:20] <ls1024> For now I'll still use the 5 GHz band with N since 2.4 is very polluted here.
[05:20] <ls1024> crucialhoax: Thanks.
[05:20] <crucialhoax> ls1024: Agreed, then hulu will hopefully be easier to watch :) you could always change channels...
[05:21] <crucialhoax> ls1024: Are you using channel 6?
[05:21] <clarkb> genericfinch: hello
[05:21] <genericfinch> clarkb: howdy
[05:21] <ls1024> crucialhoax: No, not 6 and not 1.
[05:21] <ls1024> crucialhoax: I live in a building where there are a ton of networks all over the spectrum, and channels still overlap.
[05:21] <ls1024> crucialhoax: If I'm only able to get G speeds at the 5 GHz band, the 2.4 GHz band doesn't even give me that.
[05:22] <crucialhoax> ls1024: Oh okay, in that case channel freq might not help performance much.
[05:22] <chinfist> Hello
[05:22] <Enelar> hello all, i have a little question. I remove gdm from autostart, and if I want to use this, I start manual. Now I like printing a document, but cups not started, I start it, there is input: "cupsd: Child exited with status 1!"
[05:22] <Enelar> I read many forums and sites, reinstalling cups, hplib, cupsys...
[05:23] <Guest193> my resolution is way too low for my computer, and there are no other options. is there a way to fix this?
[05:23] <Enelar> Turn off/Turn on a printer)) (HP All-In-One 2180)
[05:23] <clarkb> Guest193: try xrandr
[05:23] <Guest193> clarkb: i tried that before, and it wasn't working
[05:23] <clarkb> Guest193: something like `xrandr --output VGA1 --preferred
[05:24] <Enelar> any ideas?
[05:24] <clarkb> Guest193: well you need to give it the proper option incantation
[05:24] <scunizi> Guest193: you never answered what card you have
[05:24] <clarkb> also if you have an nvidia card you are better off using the nvidia utility I think
[05:24] <chinfist> I am getting blank screen after grub, I think it's because of the resolution I set in the StartUP-Manager utility, is there any way to change the resolution through the recovery mode?
[05:24] <zubin71> hi, when i start my apache2 server, i get the following error message. "apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for inctf" on opening up the location via a browser i get "Forbidden location". Everything was working fine until just a moment ago.
[05:25] <Guest193> scunizi: i'm not sure. i'm running in virtualbox on a mac, which may be part of the problem.
[05:25] <crucialhoax> zubin71: Sounds like a permissions issue, are you running ubuntu?
[05:25] <zubin71> crucialhoax, yes
[05:25] <zubin71> ubuntu server
[05:25] <scunizi> Guest193: well that helps a lot.. have you installed the "guest additions"?
[05:26] <Enelar> Yahoo! I fixed it) thank all for you aura))
[05:26] <crucialhoax> zubin71: Oh okay, well still applies, there is a permission that is not allowing that file to be viewed.
[05:26] <Guest193> scunizi: i'm going to have to say i haven't since i'm not sure what that is.
[05:26] <crucialhoax> Guest193: If you are using a VM why are you concerned about resolution? hah
[05:26]  * kraytul is here
[05:26] <Guest193> crucialhoax: just trying to run fullscreen, but i can't.
[05:27] <genericfinch> kraytul: lies
[05:27] <techduddeee> Hey, can anyone help me with my internet problems?
[05:27] <scunizi> Guest193: in the top of the window with the guest running in it there are three menu options.. one will show either mount or install guest additions.. find and do that and we'll proceed to the next step
[05:27] <crucialhoax> Guest193: `sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-additions`
[05:28] <crucialhoax> Guest193: Crap, your running it on a Mac. Hmm. That will not work lol
[05:28] <techduddeee> Can anyone help me with FireFox
[05:28] <scunizi> crucialhoax: Guest193 that might work for the ose version but might not for the other version
[05:28] <scunizi> Guest193: did you get vbox direct from their site?
[05:28] <crucialhoax> scunizi: His host is a Mac, wont work either way lol
[05:28] <chinfist> ;__;
[05:29] <the_file> is there anything equivilent in linux command line to this?.  http://www.is.wayne.edu/drbowen/inetf03/Edit/EditFileEdit.gif
[05:29] <zubin71> crucialhoax, the permission for the root folder is drwx-rwx-rwx
[05:29] <scunizi> crucialhoax: guest additions is installed from within the guest.
[05:29] <crucialhoax> scunizi: Oh, I thought you were referring to my command.
[05:30] <irong> an anyone do me a huge favor and convert a LIT book to PDF? calibre or something
[05:30] <scunizi> crucialhoax: I was.. you might be able to do that from within ubuntu running as a guest, but only if it's the -ose version of vbox.. not the one you get direct from virtualbox.org
[05:31] <crucialhoax> scunizi: Oh, I installed mine from the host.
[05:31] <crucialhoax> techduddeee: What is the problem?
[05:31] <chinfist> well, Im gonna try to fix it myself ;__;
[05:31] <arvind_khadri> hi does kguitar have tuning capabilities
[05:31] <techduddeee> Never mind, wasn't the computer.
[05:32] <scunizi> crucialhoax: you mount/activate the guestadditions.iso as a virtual cdrom in the host but the guest additions is actually installed inside the guest
[05:32] <kyou_> hello
[05:32] <techduddeee> It was my broadband connection.
[05:32] <techduddeee> Thanks though.
[05:32] <Tamnakz> HElp! Vuse on the fritz! Every time I load it comes up witha box that says"Vuse just completed an important update and must now be restarted so that the update can be installed"     It's done this nine times. . . I accidently removed the azureus<IP_ADDRESS>.jar file from my seeds, it force downloaded it, and now this. Any suggestions?
[05:33] <crucialhoax> scunizi: Exactly, but that command did it for me, although, I digress. It's Irrelevant.
[05:33] <techduddeee> Sorry, I just installed Ubuntu at like 5 in the morning.
[05:33] <Guest193> i just ran "xrandr --newmode "1280x800_60.00"   83.50  1280 1352 1480 1680  800 803 809 831 -hsync +vsync", and nothing happened. should something have happened?
[05:33] <techduddeee> New to all this, I specialize more in Windows 7 which sucks compared to this.
[05:33] <techduddeee> Haha.
[05:33] <Sk_Lg> can someone link me to a tutorial on how to install ubuntu on a different drive, I have the .iso on a flash drive, and windows prep'ed for dual boot; I am wondering if I should boot from the flash now
[05:33] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: Un-install it and use Deluge. Unless Vuze is a must.
[05:33] <techduddeee> Hey Sk_Lg.
[05:33] <techduddeee> Do you want to run along side Windows?
[05:33] <crucialhoax> techduddeee: So are you good?
[05:33] <Sk_Lg> yo
[05:33] <scunizi> Guest193: you can't use that running ubuntu in a virtualbox instance.. you *have* to install the guest additions to get full screen ,, drag screen,, seemless etc.
[05:33] <CloudLevi> techduddeee: Win7 isn't bad...Linux is more useful though ^^
[05:34] <Tamnakz> crucialhoax: what does deluge offer that vuse doesn't? less resources?
[05:34] <techduddeee> Or completely on a new partition?
[05:34] <Tamnakz> I also keep getting buffer errors with vuse. . .
[05:34] <jhambo> What software can I use to _grow_ an hfs+ partition??
[05:34] <CloudLevi> scunizi: any idea how to install Java? =D
[05:34] <Guest193> scunizi: do i do that through virtualbox, and not ubuntu?
[05:34] <Sk_Lg> not yet, I partitioned windows to 100gb on the first hard drive, with ~280gb left on that one; I also have another 1tb hard drive, so I am wondering if I should install onto that, or as a partition of the first
[05:35] <scunizi> CloudLevi: search synaptic for sun-java and you'll see it
[05:35] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: Deluge is a uTorrent like program. Most prefer Deluge or Transmission.
[05:35] <Tamnakz> I got wayyyy too many bad packages with transmission, that's why I went to vuze. . .
[05:35] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: I have a link. The one in the repos is old and yucky
[05:36] <CloudLevi> scunizi: how do I do that? >_> And I read the instructions...problem is the instructions are confusing and even though I figured out step one....it's NOT working...
[05:36] <scunizi> Guest193: first you mount the iso for guest additions using the menu at the top of the window running ubuntu
[05:36] <voss749> crucial, is that a technical term?
[05:36] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: Then use Deluge
[05:36] <crucialhoax> voss749: Yucky? Duh it is :)
[05:36] <CloudLevi> scunizi: this is why I *HATE* pre-written guides...they're chock full of holes...missing information ALL over.
[05:36] <Tamnakz> crucialhoax, what reasons do you recommend?
[05:36] <voss749> crucial which program are you referring to so i know not to touch the yucky stuff/
[05:36] <scunizi> CloudLevi: system>admin>synaptic package manager  .. click the search key.. type sun-java .. click little box and choose install.. click apply
[05:37]  * Dr_Willis always reads the virtualbox manual at the vbox homepage.
[05:37]  * scunizi agrees
[05:37] <Sk_Lg> techdudee: so should I put ubuntu on the primary drive, or on the larger hard drive?
[05:37] <techduddeee> How big are the drives again?
[05:37] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: Well, it is stable, most are going to recommend it, and has a nice interface with lots of configurability.
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> or we past the installing guest edditions? :0 i stepped out. heh
[05:37] <crucialhoax> voss749: The java in the repo's.
[05:37] <scunizi> Dr_Willis: nope.. not even mounted yet
[05:38] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: ?
[05:38] <Tamnakz> crucialhoax, will I be able to transfer partial torrents to it?
[05:38] <shapeshifta> does anyone here, running lucid, has a hauppauge hvr 2250 working with mythtv, me-tv, totem, etc.?
[05:38] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: Did you want that link?
[05:38] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: Try it and see, I have not attempted that.
[05:38] <Sk_Lg> 300gb primary w/ windows partitioned to 100gb, 1tb free =)
[05:38] <Tamnakz> Ok
[05:38] <Tamnakz> thanks, I'll give it a try!
[05:38] <crucialhoax> shapeshifta: #ubuntu+1 for lucid
[05:38] <crucialhoax> Tamnakz: No problem :)
[05:38] <shapeshifta> crucialhoax: oh ok, thanks
[05:39] <voss749> crucial, its not yucky just a bit stale like 2 day old pizza in the fridge
[05:39] <crucialhoax> shapeshifta: Yeppers.
[05:39] <techduddeee> Hmm. Well, I suggest just putting on the larger drive. If you install it into Windows, it'll use up more services, there for make your computer a bit slower.
[05:39] <palash> hello
[05:39] <Tamnakz> crucialhoax: any recommendation for a movie/program search engine? Since isohunt changed I can't find much other than bogus files
[05:39] <TriMe> has one here got a link or the standard source.list file, i made some changes to it just after my install and now i am having issues updating server i think i'll just put the standard source.list back in - karmic - ubuntu - 9.10 i have
[05:39] <crucialhoax> voss749: No its old like stale milk from 2 months ago.
[05:39] <techduddeee> Am I right, Crucial?
[05:39] <voss749> crucial, java tends to be not as version sensitive as flash
[05:39] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: link to what?
[05:40] <crucialhoax> Tabmow: Not sure about that. I do know that Limewire has a Linux version, does that fit the bill?
[05:40] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: Java install tut?
[05:40] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: uh...I guess? You have 6.20, right?
[05:40] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: 6.20?
[05:41] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: Java
[05:41] <crucialhoax> techduddeee: Right about what?
[05:41] <TriMe> all good finally someone had one thanks guys
[05:41] <techduddeee> Hmm. Well, I suggest just putting on the larger drive. If you install it into Windows, it'll use up more services, there for make your computer a bit slower.
[05:42] <techduddeee> Sk_Lg was wondering if he should run it into Windows.
[05:42] <techduddeee> But, it would make him run a little slower.
[05:42] <Tamnakz> anyone have recommendations for finding good movie/tv show torrents?
[05:42] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: Its something like version 6 update 19
[05:42] <bazhang> !ot > Tamnakz
[05:42] <bazhang> Tamnakz, that is offtopic here and on this network. please dont ask again.
[05:42] <bulletprf> I am new to Linux and I'm having problems with my sound, I can't hear anything through my speakers or headphone jack (nothing is muted) Can anyone help?
[05:43] <Tamnakz> my apologies
[05:43] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: I guess that works, but how do I get the bin from the Sun site to work? ><
[05:43] <techduddeee> bulletprf: Right click your speaker in the upper task bar.
[05:43] <voss749> what is the real difference between 6 version 19 and 6 version 20....not much. no program i know of needs a version of java that new
[05:43] <techduddeee> And play with the settings/drives.
[05:43] <crucialhoax> CloudLevi: http://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/java
[05:43] <palash> hello can anyone help me I'm new in ubuntu and facing some problem
[05:44] <bulletprf> ok I will try, ty
[05:44] <techduddeee> bulletprf: it's in preferences.
[05:44] <techduddeee> palash: What's your problem?
[05:44] <voss749> If you update ubuntu every 6 months, that version of java will probably be fine.
[05:45] <CloudLevi> crucialhoax: I'll...go try that... e-e
[05:46] <metal> hi
[05:46] <metal> hi
[05:46] <MEGAnothing> hi
[05:46] <MEGAnothing> first time using irl
[05:47] <bulletprf> techduddeee: There isn't anything in my hardware device list ??
[05:47] <metal> me too
[05:47] <techduddeee> Bulletprf: Have you selected different profiles?
[05:47] <crucialhoax> Is there a way to make apt- see that I have manually installed something and update that with everything else?
[05:47] <crucialhoax> For instance Java
[05:48] <Dr_Willis> crucialhoax:  only if you used apt-packages to install it..
[05:48] <scunizi> crucialhoax: only if it was installed via the package manager.. if you did it manually no
[05:48] <crucialhoax> Dr_Willis: I dont. Ok, no biggy
[05:49] <crucialhoax> Is there a ppa for the latest java?
[05:49] <bulletprf> techduddeee: I don't know how, like I said I'm very new
[05:49] <scunizi> crucialhoax: what are you trying to access that needs the latest? or do you just want it because it's the latest?
[05:50] <techduddeee> Okay, would you like me to do it for you? Via Desktop share.
[05:50] <crucialhoax> scunizi: Just want it because it is the latest ;]
[05:51] <bulletprf> sure
[05:51] <scunizi> crucialhoax: I did it once a couple months ago but it was a pain to install.. not difficult .. but  a pain.. ultimately not worth it.
[05:52] <techduddeee> bulletprf: If you choose not to, then you go to the sound preferences and go to HardWare. From there, drop down the list and select Profiles. Try all of them until you find hardware.
[05:52] <techduddeee> Bulletprf: If you won't find any, tell me.
[05:52] <horofox> i have a little problem that have been making mad everytime i turn on my pc, i have set my keyboard to a different layout than english, but everytime i turn it on, it's set as default as english :(
[05:53] <mcurran> anyone know if it's possible to host a home server from a seperate ip address (remotely)?
[05:53] <bulletprf> techduddeee we can desktop share if you want, and there isn't anything in hardware
[05:53] <techduddeee> bulletprf: You checked every single one of the Profiles?
[05:53] <scunizi> mcurran: you mean at a different location or just a different ip address?
[05:54] <bulletprf> techduddeee: I don't know what profiles you are talking about
[05:55] <crucialhoax> scunizi: Oh well. i will just manually update it. Eventually I will write a script that will remove the old and install the new so I dont have to :)
[05:55] <ravibn> Hi, I was upgrd my OOo and went on well but some email-merge failed bcos of JRE not available So how do I install JRE ?
[05:55] <techduddeee> Right click the speaker on the top panel> Sound Preferences> Click "HardWare"> Go to the bottom and select different profiles.
[05:56] <scunizi> ravibn: sudo apt-get install sun-java-jre
[05:56] <crucialhoax> ravibn: There is two ways, old java is in the repos `search for sun-java` or you can install latest from the site but it will do auto-update
[05:57] <crucialhoax> Anywho. I am tired. Night / Morning all.
[05:57] <ravibn> scunizi : I got an error msg E: Couldn't find package sun-java-jre
[05:57] <techduddeee> Crucialhoax: Good night.
[05:57] <the_file> can I use elinks on a windows install?.
[05:57] <scunizi> ravibn: sorry sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[05:58] <bulletprf> techduddeee: there are no profiles at the bottom, the whole thing is blank, it just says Choose a device to configure: and Settings for the selected device: that's it
[05:58] <freez> hello
[05:58] <ravibn> scunizi : got one more error msg Package sun-java6-jre has no installation candidate
[05:58] <Haitian> hello :)
[05:58] <freez> Um is there a channel for things like hardware and flash drives
[05:58] <bazhang> freez, ##hardware
[05:59] <freez> ty
[05:59] <Trek> how can I set my system to use specific DNS servers?
[05:59] <scunizi> ravibn: do a .. apt-cache search sun-java and see what is listed.. use the package name that ends in -jre
[05:59] <techduddeee> Okay, then try.. System>Administration>Hardware Drivers.
[05:59] <Haitian> Support in Portuguese Language is on #ubuntu-br or here?
[06:00] <MEGAnothing> ##hardware
[06:00] <bazhang> Haitian, #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-pt

[06:01] <techduddeee> Oops.
[06:01] <hunahpu> I'm in ##hardware...
[06:01] <techduddeee> #hardware
[06:01] <Trek> got a question: is there a method to tell my system to use a different DNS server than that on my network?
[06:01] <bazhang> techduddeee, no , its two ##
[06:01] <techduddeee> SHIT.
[06:01] <techduddeee> I keep forgetting that.
[06:01] <techduddeee> Haha.
[06:01] <techduddeee> Thanks, bazhang.
[06:01] <hunahpu> freez: 192 users at ##hardware, are you registered?
[06:01] <bulletprf> techduddeee: now what?
[06:02] <freez> yeah i should be
[06:02] <pourya> Trek: try looking at /etc/resolv.conf
[06:02] <freez> i still cant join

[06:02] <zubin71> id like to monitor the incoming connections on my apache server while im logged in as root via ssh. how could i do that?
[06:02] <techduddeee> bulletprf: Are there any drivers that are available?
[06:02] <codygman> do you guys know how to put a folder into a virtual box?
[06:02] <codygman> that is
[06:02] <codygman> a file
[06:03] <chrisTLC> Trek, or what pourya say. That'll work too. You might want to chattr it to prevent it from being occasionally overwritten.
[06:03] <Trek> chrisTLC: I avoid messin with my system files if I can :P
[06:04] <ravibn> scunizi : it did list anything at all when I ran apt-cache search jre
[06:04] <Trek> i assume I can specify multiple servers with a comma-delimited list?
[06:04] <chrisTLC> Trek, I assume so too.
[06:04] <hunahpu> codygman: use shared folders, at bottom of your virtual machine devices
[06:04] <bulletprf> techduddeee: just some Nvidia ones and a software modem, I activated the recommended one for Nvidia and the software one, but there isn't anything for my sound card
[06:04] <scunizi> ravibn: try using system>admin>synaptic package manager and search for sun-java  .. it's there.. don't know why it's not showing up..
[06:04] <zubin71> id like to monitor the incoming connections on my apache server while im logged in as root via ssh. how could i do that?
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> zubin71:  watch the apache log files
[06:05] <pourya> ravibn: you might need to modify you repo list....
[06:05] <zubin71> Dr_Willis, could you please tell me which file. A bit of a hurry, sorry. :(
[06:05] <ravibn> pourya : what is that repo list modification?
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> zubin71:  i imagine one in /var/log that has apache or http in the name
[06:06] <carandraug> anyone here uses octave?
[06:06] <zubin71> Dr_Willis, Thank you.
[06:06] <chrisTLC> zubin71, Try "locate apache | grep log" o.o
[06:06] <ravibn> scunizi : did not show java at all
[06:06] <lakodajin> hi
[06:06] <Flannel> zubin71: /var/log/apache/access.log
[06:06] <scunizi> ravibn: is this a freshly installed system?
[06:07] <bulletprf> techduddeee: just some Nvidia ones and a software modem, I activated the recommended one for Nvidia and the software one, but there isn't anything for my sound card
[06:07] <ravibn> scunizi  : yes!
[06:07] <zubin71> Flannel, thankx
[06:07] <pourya> ravbin: its the file containing the list of repositories you get the packages from you could try googling for ubuntuguide it contains a tutorial on how to update you repositories and add new ones...
[06:07] <scunizi> ravibn: have you done all the updates?
[06:07] <scunizi> ravibn: is it 9.10 or 10.04?
[06:07] <ravibn> scunizi : yes the updts keeps going on everyday Mine is 9.1
[06:08] <techduddeee> bulletprf: I'm trying to find a resolution for the problem.
[06:08] <mobius2> I am an avid gardener, and I recently heard of a small handheld controller card which many gardeners use for the purpose of managing a small linux kernel  which  handles the dispensation of h2p and other vital nutes. Does anyone here know of anything open source which would benefit a gardener? For instance , I think I would like to make my  tempER ( usb thermo device ) with linux, but the native software interface was written for MS Win
[06:08] <mobius2> dows.
[06:08] <ravibn> scunizi : karmic Kola 9.10
[06:08] <mobius2> the card is called the Arduino?
[06:08] <codygman> hunahpu: after I make a shared folder, where can i access it using windows xp virtualbox?
[06:09] <bazhang> mobius2, try ##hardware or #ubuntu-offtopic please
[06:09] <scunizi> ravibn: you might need to have synaptic change the repo's you're using.. sorry but someone will have to pick up this help thread.. I've gotta run
[06:09] <mobius2> bazhang,  excellent thanks :)
[06:09] <chrisTLC> mobius2, can you link more information about that one? I'm curious.
[06:09] <bulletprf> ok thank you much
[06:09] <mobius2> chrisTLC,  you got it mate
[06:10] <ravibn> How do I updt synaptic pkgs ?
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  the 'reload' button in synaptic package manager tool - reloads the list,
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  or 'sudo apt-get update'
[06:11] <arvind_khadri> hi does kguitar have tuning capabilities  ??
[06:11] <ravibn> Dr_willis : I have given reload and it is going on right now
[06:11] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : I need JRE to be installed on my Karmic 9.10 just guide me
[06:12] <mobius2> can someone explain a simple way to boot my laptop to an older ( presumeably automatically saved) version of my OS kernel?
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  i just install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package  and i thought that pulled in java.. or at least it used to.
[06:13] <Yum> I'm currently using version ubuntu of 9.10, but  I type apt-get update to get this new version 10.04?
[06:13] <Trek> Yum: won't happen until a stable release is issued
[06:13] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : after the reload I got a list of errors and it said it cannot download
[06:14] <Trek> Yum: in fact, don't consider upgrading until a stable release is issued.  also, you'd need to upgrade to 9.10 first, IIRC
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  seems you got some issues in your package manager then. Try the 'sudo apt-get update' and if any errors pastebin them for the channel to see
[06:15] <Ceiling_Paint> hello?
[06:15] <Flannel> Yum,  Trek: "apt-get update" (or upgrade or dist-upgrade) by themselves won't upgrade you to a new version.  You'll want to use update-manager for that (if you want to use apt-get to do that, you need to modify some configuration files to get it to work)
[06:15] <Yum> hmm trek, thanks
[06:15] <tucemiux__> !hello | Ceiling_Paint
[06:15] <Ceiling_Paint> hi! i've got a question about grub, can you guys help me out on it'?
[06:16] <Trek> Flannel: yeah, i knew that, i'm just a little tired and didnt mention that :P.  OH: upgrade wont upgrade the distro.  thats dist-upgrade only.
[06:16] <tucemiux__> Ceiling_Paint, you can ask in #grub2 but if someone knows the answer they will surely reply
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> Ceiling_Paint:  unless of course the answer is right there in the grub docs :)
[06:16] <tucemiux__> Ceiling_Paint, sorry i meant to say #grub but you can go ahead and ask
[06:16] <Flannel> Trek: no, dist-upgrade won't either.  In normal use, you use dist-upgrade to get new kernel versions for instance.  dist-upgrade will only after you modify your sources.list to point to the new versions (but again, you should use update-manager for that)
[06:16] <techduddeee> bulletprf: My advice is to download/install all drivers being available.
[06:17] <Ceiling_Paint> ok well this is my situation, i have a few systems here, i've got ubuntu 8.1 on one harddrive, 9.1 on another, and win7pro on a third
[06:17] <bulletprf> techduddeee: ok
[06:17] <Yum> thanks Flannel
[06:17] <kyleeric> hey everyone I have a ? a bout playonlinux
[06:18] <tucemiux__> Ceiling_Paint, ok so what is the problem you are having --- all in one line
[06:18] <techduddeee> http://superuser.com/questions/65135/ubuntu-9-10-x64-has-no-sound-while-ubuntu-9-04-32-bit-does
[06:18] <Ceiling_Paint> i want to know if i can use grub to multiboot, i was looking up grub docs and i've gotten kind of overwhelmed, but im thinking that if i use sudo update-grub, it will find all the os's and create the grub.cfg i need, will that work?
[06:18] <ravibn> Dr-Willis : http://pastebin.com/LsngMsFC
[06:19] <ravibn> Dr_willis : http://pastebin.com/LsngMsFC - here are the errors after I updted
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  you got some bad/wrong entries it seems.. or their server is down. ->  http://ubuntuarchive.hnsdc.com
[06:20] <tucemiux__> Ceiling_Paint, grub2 will do that, if you install linux last it will configure itself without a problem, if it needs a little help then you update grub, it works like a charm, i have 2 hard drives --- one is production with xp and karmic, the other for testing windows7 and lucid
[06:20] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : if you look at the pastebin some of them got updt from that server
[06:21] <techduddeee> bulletprf: http://superuser.com/questions/65135/ubuntu-9-10-x64-has-no-sound-while-ubuntu-9-04-32-bit-does
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  yep. so that server mayu be goofy.. or somthing. the server seems to be the issue. Youmay want to switch servers
[06:21] <davebs> so this is frustrating... two computers connected to same router, one goes through to internet, the other doesn't... any ideas?
[06:21] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : tell me which one ?
[06:21] <tucemiux__> davebs, they both have ubuntu?
[06:21] <Gla> ravibn: that's the oppisite
[06:22] <pourya>  Dr_wilis the problem you are having is with the keys....
[06:22] <twik> Hey.. my computer will automatically lock the screen after nothing's happened for 5 minutes which, while useful, makes watching movies a pain.  any way to turn this off?
[06:22] <davebs> tucemiux: yes, both ubuntu, both connected via ethernet
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> pourya:  error 404 is for the keys? Hmm
[06:22] <Ceiling_Paint> so just to clarify, even if each harddrive had the operating systems installed on them individually, if i ran update-grub, it should find all the os entries and set itself? im guessing thats what it does when it first installs.  does that sound right?
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> Err http://ubuntuarchive.hnsdc.com karmic-security/multiverse Sources   ---> error 404
[06:23] <tucemiux__> davebs, its possible the NIC is bad, do you have a dual boot in the machine that cant connect internet?  can you try connecting to the net with windows?
[06:24] <Yum> Flannel,  pm please?
[06:25] <davebs> tucemiux: gah, i hope not, no dual boot, just ubuntu and windows 7 and xp via vmware... i could try another linux live cd?  the ethernet is off motherboard, what could have caused nic going bad?
[06:25] <bulletprf> techduddeee: I removed the software modem driver and it works now, thank you for all your help
[06:26] <Yum> Trek,  pm please?
[06:26] <tucemiux__> davebs, hardware doesnt last forever, can you trouble shoot the nic? can you get an IP? first check the obvious, physical connection and make sure you see a light on the nic, could also be a bad LAN cable, it used to work before, right?
[06:27] <davebs> tucemiux: bttw, interesting caveat: i have one keyboard and one mouse shared for both computers through synergy... that works, so the two computers can interact well... the computer that can't connect also streams videos to xbmc... so it can get to network and work well, just not internet
[06:27] <Trek> Yum: not on your life.  i ignore all PMs
[06:27] <Trek> Yum: too many PM spammers sendin me crap
[06:27] <Yum> ok Trek  :)
[06:27] <Yum> is one question of swap
[06:28] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : any luck at all ?
[06:28] <davebs> tucemiux: yeah, by those checks, the nic seems to work and i'm assigned an IP and my router even seems to see the computer, but wtf
[06:28] <Guest5922> hi, i was wonderin if anyone cuold help me,  how could install network manager offline??
[06:28] <pourya> Dr_Wilis: take a look at  this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9125910
[06:29] <davebs> tucemiux: all the routes seem to be in place and gateway is correct but it just doesn't seem to work, and it stopped working suddenly a couple days ago, very perplexing...

[06:30] <Z3r0> hi, i was wonderin if anyone cuold help me,  how could install network manager offline?? i tried several times but no luck :/
[06:30] <hunahpu> !ask | freezway
[06:30] <Yum> Trek,  I installed ubuntu, but not put memory swap, because I have 4 GB of memory and have not found necessary. Memory is very important to put swap? If yes, how should I proceed now to put the record swap?
[06:30] <tucemiux__> davebs, where you able to access the net at some point? did you upgrade software/hardware and then your net access died?
[06:31] <SwedeMike> Yum: you probably dont need swap with 4 gigs of ram, no.
[06:31] <chrisTLC> Yum, I don't use swap myself. If you use Hibernation/Suspend, you'll need swap. If you don't, I'll presume 100MB are more than enough.
[06:31] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo route add -host link-local; SIOCADDRT: No such device.' What did I enter wrongly?
[06:31] <twik> Hey, is there a way to disable the fact that my computer will lock the screen after five or so minutes of inactivity?
[06:31] <SwedeMike> twik: yes, screensaver/power settings.
[06:31] <tucemiux__> twik, yes,
[06:32] <bullgard4> twik: Yes.
[06:32] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : any updates to install JRE ?
[06:32] <freezway> sorry, I borked up my flash drive, (accidently hit "format" instead of close in the live USB creator) and i hit close in a panic. now i cant see any files.... I need some of the files... and it still says MSDOS as format type and that there are 600MB used
[06:32] <Guest46139> anybody.....
[06:32] <twik> ah, thanks SwedeMike, was able to turn it off via 'screensaver'
[06:32] <Guest46139> is there a good dvd ripper?
[06:32] <Ceiling_Paint> tucemiux, thanks for the info, im going to try it out when i get back home, hopefully i'll get it to run!
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  ive never had issues installing it. I just install ubuntu-restricted-extras or the proper java package name.
[06:33] <zubin71> Hi, I have an sql file I have created as 'mysql -u root -p db > dump.sql' ; how can i restore it back into the database?
[06:33] <Z3r0>  how could install network manager offline?? i tried several times but no luck :/
[06:33] <bullgard4> Guest46139: Define "good".
[06:33] <davebs> tucemiux: yes, i was able to access internet, but no hardware upgrades
[06:33] <freezway> any1?
[06:33] <Guest46139> good as in ... rip encoded dvds
[06:33] <Shizzit> Anyone know a nice MS Paint alternative that has a nice small sleek UI like Paint?
[06:33] <Yum> chrisTLC,  and how do I proceed now to post meno by 100 MB of memory swap?
[06:34] <davebs> tucemiux: i've been looking for a variable that changed, and i can't come up w/ one... obviously there must be something somewhere, but for the life of me i can't figure it out...
[06:34] <ravibn> Dr_Willis : you might be setup with the right servers and as you saw those errors in that pastebin I think your mirror sites needs an updt
[06:34] <chrisTLC> Z3r0, All packages are usually retrieved via Internet.  If you have no Internet, well, use packages.ubuntu.com or you could connect to Internet using terminal commands (Look up on Internet for guide or ask around. I don't know how myself.)
[06:34] <davebs> tucemiux: the network settings of each computer are identical as far as i can tell
[06:34] <hunahpu> freezway:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> Shizzit:  try mtpaint perhaps
[06:34] <chrisTLC> !swap | Yum
[06:35] <tucemiux__> davebs, it must be at either the router or some configuration on your machine or just the client youre using to access the net, can you ping anything?
[06:35] <nexsja> hello, i've recently setup an ubuntu server and i'm kind of new to this. I did all the setting up at home, and when i connected to server to another router there's just no internet connection. The server acquires and ip address and i even can ping all the local machines, though the server in inaccessible
[06:35] <chrisTLC> Yum, I have 3GB Ram on my laptop and I have no swap enabled. I prefer to utilize all memory into RAM, not SWAP.
[06:35] <gdewald> do I have to reinstall a game to use it with wine?
[06:35] <gdewald> WINE*
[06:35] <gdewald> if I already installed it in windows?
[06:36] <hunahpu> gdewald: yes
[06:36] <geekphreak> hello folks

[06:36] <gdewald> >.<
[06:36] <Yum>   i need  to swap
[06:36] <Yum> sorry for flood..
[06:37] <nexsja> anybody?
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> gdewald:  normally its best to do that install for a game from within wine.
[06:37] <davebs> tucemiux: interesting enough... can't ping anything, but pinging router gets me a "destination host unreachable" pretty quick
[06:37] <chrisTLC> Yum, Did you see the link from ubottu?
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> gdewald:  it can depend on the game also
[06:37] <geekphreak> Dr_Willis: howdy
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> geekphreak:  moo!
[06:37] <geekphreak> lol
[06:37] <gdewald> It's just that I don't want to reinstall 30+ gigs of data from my steam folder ^__^
[06:37] <Yum> chrisTLC,  I will now read.. thanks
[06:37] <Trek> Yum: you need to load a LiveCD/LiveUSB though.  then you need to shrink your partition sizes down a little.  Then you need to move your partitions around to get the most continuous freespace you can.  then you need to make a new swap with that freespace
[06:37] <Trek> i cant give you more details, since I'm heading off now
[06:38] <hunahpu> gdewald: keep in mind thatn ot all games will work with wine, and they won't work exactly the same
[06:38] <tucemiux__> davebs, you know how to use paste bin??
[06:38] <gdewald> yeah, but CS:S is supposed to work well
[06:38] <gdewald> and steam
[06:38] <davebs> tucemiux: not really, but i can figure it out pretty quick
[06:38] <tripleb> what is this thing with reddit on firefox. It starts scrolling down and doesnt stop. This after I touch the bottom small arrow. But not every time.
[06:38] <davebs> tucemiux: what should i check?
[06:39] <tucemiux__> !paste | davebs
[06:39] <hunahpu> gdewald: last time I tried it, it was very laggy (like 2 years ago), but good luck getting the head shots
[06:39] <Ken8521> Yum, a pc that fast, you really should be OK w/o a swap
[06:39] <nexsja> hello?
[06:39] <tucemiux__> davebs, let me see the output of "ifconfig" and "route"
[06:40] <supertimmy> Hi All. Is there any way to pair a bluetooth device in karmic via the gui without having to specify a pin?
[06:40] <gdewald> oh, never mind, I found a way to install steam without disposing of all my installed games
[06:41] <davebs> tucemiux: k, please hold a sec
[06:41] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo route add -host link-local; SIOCADDRT: No such device.' What did I enter wrongly?
[06:41] <nomnex> help with empathy, someone? need to access jabber accounts, can I use my google talk account?
[06:42] <geekphreak> nomnex: there is a google account feature
[06:42] <nexsja> I've got a linksys router and the damn thing gives my an ip, but no interwebs. Any ideas why? :<
[06:42] <nomnex> geekphreak, I don't where to ask about it? yes it's a google feature
[06:43] <NeedleInYourArms> so question i want to install kubuntu but i dont want to risk losing my windows instillation and such is it safe to set it up to duel boot?
[06:43] <tanino> salve
[06:43] <bullgard4> nexsja: I do not know what do you mean by "interwebs"?
[06:43] <djbpython> is there any way to figure out the version of an installed c library?
[06:43] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> (the ip address for google.com)?
[06:44] <nexsja> bullgard4, internet
[06:44] <nexsja> Jordan_U, nope
[06:44] <davebs> http://paste.ubuntu.com/416474/
[06:44] <nexsja> oh, no, wait
[06:44] <nexsja> i can
[06:44] <davebs> tucemiux: http://paste.ubuntu.com/416474/
[06:44] <nexsja> that means that there's a problem with the dns...
[06:44] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Ok, sounds like a DNS problem then.
[06:44] <a{> nomnex: GoogleTalk is a special "type" separate from Jabbar, with default server filled in.
[06:44] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Try opendns.
[06:44] <bullgard4> nexsja: Report the output of the 'route' command in a nopaste.
[06:45] <nomnex> a{, oh, so I have to open an account Jabber, thanks
[06:46] <Shizzit> firefox won't copy
[06:47] <nexsja> Jordan_U, how do you make a read-only file writable and then read-only again?
[06:47] <Jordan_U> nexsja: What file are you trying to write to? there's probably a better way to do what you want.
[06:48] <nexsja> Jordan_U, for some unknown reason i can nor edit a file, nor create a file/dir. It says "Read-only file system"
[06:48] <tucemiux__> davebs, try this, type a few letters on a user's name and then hit tab
[06:48] <Shizzit> [01:46] <Shizzit> firefox won't copy
[06:48] <Jordan_U> nexsja: What file? All files?
[06:49] <nexsja> Jordan_U, yes.
[06:49] <turtle_> what does the ubuntu-desktop lib do?
[06:49] <Shizzit> [01:48] <Shizzit> [01:46] <Shizzit> firefox won't copy
[06:49] <greezmunkey> Shizzit: won't copy where?
[06:50] <Yum> reboot...
[06:50] <turtle_> I've gone to remove a prog in synaptic and it says it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop as well
[06:50] <nexsja> Jordan_U, hm, and in df -h i don't see the partition that i've installed everything on to
[06:51] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you pastebin the output of "mount" and "dmesg"?
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> turtle_:   what are you removeing and why?
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> turtle_:  removeing the ubuntu-desktop metapackage proberly wont affect much
[06:51] <nexsja> Jordan_U, pasting would be rather difficult. I can take a pic. :))
[06:51] <Jordan_U> !ubuntu-desktop | turtle_
[06:51] <davebs> tucemiux: sorry, huh?  you mean type a few numbers into console and hit tab?
[06:51] <turtle_> Dr_Willis: Brasero to try an alternative
[06:52] <turtle_> ubottu: ty
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> turtle_:  theres no real need to uninstall it most likely
[06:52] <tucemiux__> !who | davebs
[06:52] <freezway> ok im back... I could use some help rescuing data from my flash drive
[06:52] <Jordan_U> nexsja: You might be able to write to a flash drive.
[06:52] <Yum> back with swap :D
[06:52] <Yum> thanks
[06:52] <davebs> ubottu:  Sorry, I thought I was?
[06:52] <turtle_> Dr_Willis: well true, it could sit there and rot, but I'm running a low end system to wanted to minimise the footprint
[06:52] <tucemiux__> davebs, what is the last line of "route"?  it should look something like "default "
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> turtle_:  i doubt if you are going to save much.
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> low end to me = pent 3 :) or pent 2..
[06:53] <davebs> tucemiux: yea, default <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> UG 0 0 eth0
[06:53] <turtle_> Dr_Willis: ok I'll leave it there. Does it contain anything important?
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> turtle_:  the ubuntu-desktop is a meta package. if you upgrade the system to the next release. you will want to reinstall it.. and that will pull all the dependencies back in
[06:54] <nexsja> Jordan_U, umm how do i mount a flash drive now? (to be clear: that's a server i'm working with)
[06:54] <the_file_> df
[06:54] <freezway>  I borked up my flash drive, (accidently hit "format" instead of close in the live USB creator) and i hit close in a panic. now i cant see any files.... I need some of the files... and it still says MSDOS as format type and that there are 600MB used. I ran gddrescue and it said no errors. then I ran mmls -b on the file it extracted from the drive into my home and it appears its still there. but i still cant see anything
[06:54] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you ssh into it?
[06:55] <turtle_> Dr_Willis: ok thanks :-)
[06:55] <goodfella121> Quick question about video cards. Anyone have the time?
[06:56] <mouse> Can a backup of /etc/ for one linux distro be used successfully on another?
[06:56] <tucemiux__> davebs, looks like your nic has an ip and is configured correctly, can you ping the other computer?
[06:56] <cow1> sss
[06:56] <SwedeMike> freezway: first of all, dd the whole drive to a file somewhere so you can get ack to where you are right now. Then run fsck on the partition and see what it says, then last I'd try to check it on a windows machine and see what it says.
[06:56] <tucemiux__> goodfella121, just go ahead and ask, all in one line, if anyone knows the answer they will reply
[06:57] <cow1> why am I getting 'Cannot send to channel' when I try to type in 'C++' irc chat?
[06:57] <goodfella121> Well, I was wondering. I have an integrated 64mb video card, and I'm getting ready to install a 256mb video card. Will this improve video editing performance in Ubuntu (Kdenlive, PiTiVi and OpenShot)?
[06:57] <davebs> tucemiux: yes, other computer pings fine, router not so much... much the ping is obviously literally going through the router to get to the other computer...
[06:57] <nexsja> Jordan_U, i can't even turn sshd on. It says i need to re-exec it with an absolute path
[06:57] <greezmunkey> mouse: i doubt it, why do you ask?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you ssh out?
[06:58] <nexsja> Jordan_U, i can't, because i can't add a host to known hosts list - read-only fllesystem problem
[06:58] <a{> nexsja: try /usr/sbin/sshd (or wherever sshd is.)
[06:59] <nexsja> oh, wait
[06:59] <nexsja> i connected to my laptop here
[06:59] <herbert> davbs: is it a router or hub?
[06:59] <tucemiux__> davebs,  I think the problem is with your router, can you ping the router: ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:59] <gkahla> mouse - you can pull individual config files (if the apps are of the same revision), but most distros organize their /etc differently and tell those apps to find their files in different places.
[06:59] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo route add -host link-local; SIOCADDRT: No such device.' What did I enter wrongly?
[06:59] <gkahla> I'd archive it, then pull specific settings as needed
[06:59] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: Hmm, on more try. lol I have an integrated 64mb video card, and I'm getting ready to install a 256mb video card. Will this improve video editing performance in Ubuntu (Kdenlive, PiTiVi and OpenShot)?
[07:00] <davebs> tucemiux: i can't, says "destination host unreachable", fwiw that comes up pretty quick as opposed to when i ping yahoo.com it takes a while to come back w/ unreachable
[07:00] <nexsja> a{, "Missing privilege separation directory: /var/run/sshd"
[07:00] <mouse> greezmunkey:  I was mostly just wondering if /etc/ can be used across multiple linux distros if for some reason I need to reinstall and decide to use a different distrobution.  For example if a backup of a ubuntu /etc/ being applied to a mint /etc/.
[07:01] <tucemiux__> goodfella121, yes!!!  You might also want to get as much memory as you can, its quite cheap nowadays, if you havent bought the video card yet I suggest you research and buy a card that's known to work with ubuntu
[07:01] <Jordan_U> nexsja: You probably have some sort of filesystem corruption, possably a hardware problem. If this is the first boot this has happened then it might be fixed by an fsck automatically. But do NOT reboot.
[07:01] <ZeeshanQ> goodfella121: nvidi's work pretty well with linux
[07:01] <greezmunkey> mouse: you would have to study the file systems of each distro to make that decision. I don't have that answer. sorry.
[07:02] <Jordan_U> nexsja: If it doesn't boot again you may not have any chance to get the dmesg which might contain usefull information.
[07:02] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: Already did. Sorry man, lol, no one answered. Also, I'm about to double the ram. It already runs near smooth with little lag on 1GB ram (only on Linux!) and a 64mb vid card, so I know this will solve a lot of problems.
[07:02] <nexsja> Jordan_U, mm, okay, so what do i do?
[07:02] <tripleb> what is this thing with reddit on firefox. It starts scrolling down and doesnt stop. This after I touch the bottom small arrow. But not every time.
[07:02] <nexsja> that's the first time that happened. Actually that's the 3rd boot anyway :>
[07:02] <tucemiux__> davebs, there's the problem,  your machine cant even see the router for some reason, try rebooting the router,  try to ping it again, if it doesnt work then youre going to have to peek inside your router to see if anything was changed, you did password protect your router, right?
[07:03] <mouse> gkahla:  Thank you.
[07:03] <Jordan_U> nexsja: What is the first time what happened?
[07:03] <goodfella121> ZeeshanQ: I bought a Nividia GeForce FX 5500 256 MB. That should work according to my research. What do you think?
[07:03] <nexsja> Jordan_U, the "hardware corruption problem". How do I mount the flash drive? I can cat > dmesg there
[07:04] <tucemiux__> goodfella121, if your appz work on your machine then awesome, ive had serious issues with video on ubuntustudio, things generally dont work, they tend to crash a lot
[07:04] <davebs> tucemiux: hmm, yes, i did pass protect, i'll poke around router settings, if that doesn't work maybe i'll try restarting to factory settings
[07:04] <Jordan_U> nexsja: "sudo fdisk -l" to find the deice name then "sudo mount /dev/sdXX /mnt"
[07:04] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: I'm using Lucid, and it corrected almost all of my video problems. Now I just need a better video card, which should solve the rest. =D
[07:05] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: Kdenlive edits very, just lags on larger vid files (the vid card should fix that!). Everything else runs wonderfully.
[07:05] <goodfella121> *very well
[07:05] <tucemiux__> goodfella121, you already bought it? The 5500 is **old**, you must have a really old machine, i guess you dont have any PCI Express slots?
[07:06] <davebs> tucemiux: thank you for your help, i really appreciate it
[07:06] <goodfella121> tucemiux: No, no PCI express.  I mean, yeah. What do you think?
[07:06] <nexsja> Jordan_U, and do i need to unmount it (in any case?)
[07:06] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Yes.
[07:06] <tucemiux__> davebs,  did you reboot your router?
[07:07] <Jordan_U> nexsja: sudo umount /mnt
[07:07] <nexsja> yyes, that doesn't work "Device is busy"
[07:07] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: It's a Dell Dimension 2400, which is old lol
[07:08] <tucemiux__> goodfella121, good enough for linux
[07:08] <nexsja> there,
[07:08] <MegaHerz> Hi all. I experience very strange problem. I added a host to /etc/hosts. Ping and gethostip do use the IP from there, but FireFox and Chrome - don't! Why this may happen?
[07:08] <goodfella121> Tucemiux: Yeah, big time. It already runs Ubuntu perfect. :D But from 64mb vid to 256? I should notice that.
[07:08] <Shizzit> how do you find your screen resolution
[07:08] <ZeeshanQ> MegaHerz: restart firefox
[07:09] <Shizzit> ok
[07:09] <ZeeshanQ> try cleaning your cache in firefox as well
[07:09] <emerson> hya anybody can help me..I was using youtube-dl to download videos from you tube but now it doesn't work anymore and then I start to use UnPlug so was working fine but now experienced the same problme actually is quite weird ..
[07:09] <SwedeMike> goodfella121: only if you use 3D acceleration probably. if you only use it as a framebuffer, you dont need much
[07:09] <nexsja> Jordan_U, http://pastie.org/925402
[07:09] <goodfella121> SwedeMike: I will be using it for 3d acceleration as well. The stupid Intel Brookdale G can't handle that worth a crud.
[07:09] <ZeeshanQ> emerson: i haven't used those, but keepvid.com works fine for me
[07:10] <emerson> anybody can tell me what's going on ?
[07:10] <MegaHerz> ZeeshanQ: I did it, And as I said - Chromium does same shit
[07:10] <slckb0y> hi everyone :) is someone running KDE in a virtualbox under win7 ? :) i can't seem to use OpenGL for desktop effect even if i installed guest additions
[07:10] <goodfella121> SwedeMIke: In fact, when Compiz was supported by this Intel card, it *barely ran anyway
[07:10] <ZeeshanQ> MegaHerz: uhmm, try restarting your netowrking subsystem
[07:10] <MegaHerz> ZeeshanQ: and I see with tcpdump they are requesting IP from DNS which I don't want
[07:10] <ZeeshanQ> MegaHerz: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:10] <Jordan_U> emerson: While the page is open the video is stored in /tmp/Flash* (where * is a random set of numbers and letters)
[07:11] <emerson> ZeeshanQ: right but why something works fine and then doesn't work anymore...
[07:11] <ZeeshanQ> emerson: i have no idea about that. i don't download much from youtube so can't say
[07:11] <geekphreak> sorry got disconnected
[07:12] <tucemiux__> thats ok you freak
[07:12] <Jordan_U> emerson: Youtube probably changed their internal URLs for the video files.
[07:12] <ZeeshanQ> Jordan_U: but then others shouldn't work
[07:12] <ZeeshanQ> probably they changed for some content
[07:12] <MegaHerz> ZeeshanQ: didn't help either
[07:12] <goodfella121> So, what is the best Nvidia card I can get right now?
[07:12] <geekphreak> thanks tucemiux__  :p
[07:12] <emerson> Jordan_U: I know is there I tryed it too, but when I download and try to run I can't see the image nor the sound.
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> goodfella121:  clarify what 'best' means to you
[07:13] <geekphreak> goodfella121: how is that ubuntu question, try asking in #hardware
[07:13] <bullgard4> '~$ sudo route add -host link-local; SIOCADDRT: No such device.' What did I enter wrongly?
[07:13] <ZeeshanQ> MegaHerz: MegaHerz last resort, try restarting
[07:13] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: what are you trying to do?
[07:13] <steven__> i cant get mule farm to work with wine plz help
[07:13] <Jordan_U> ZeeshanQ: These services, and totem's youtube plugin, are constantly updated when youtube changes things around.
[07:13] <h00k> emerson: that probably isn't an ubuntu-specific bug, check with whoever made that software grabber
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> steven__:  see the wine app database and #winehq perhaps
[07:13] <bullgard4> SwedeMike: To complete my routing table.
[07:14] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: complete?
[07:14] <goodfella121> Dr_Willis: Runs amazing with Ubuntu, high memory and speed... Nvidia, lol... Just in your opinion. I want this to work with Ubuntu Linux, specifically, but I want it to be top of the line.
[07:14] <bullgard4> SwedeMike: Yes.
[07:14] <steven__> Dr_Willis: what
[07:14] <tucemiux__> geekphreak, not everyone in #hardware uses ubuntu
[07:14] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: that doesn't make ANY sense.
[07:14] <bullgard4> SwedeMike: You are wrong.
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> goodfella121:  your qualifications are still vague..  they have $500+ cards out now..   so its whatever your wallet can afford.
[07:14] <Jordan_U> emerson: What exactly happens when you try to double click the file?
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> goodfella121:  top /new/just out = the most problems i find. Go with a decent card thats been out for a while.
[07:15] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: orly.
[07:15] <the_file> it stabs you in the face
[07:15] <the_file> df
[07:15] <emerson> Jorna_U:yes
[07:15] <the_file> the file will work
[07:15] <nexsja> Jordan_U, did the log tell you anything?
[07:15] <Jordan_U> nexsja: I misssed where you posted the link.
[07:16] <goodfella121> Dr_Willis: Good idea. that's why I bought an older one. I heard the nvidia250 gfx (or whatever lulz) is supposed to be very good, and it's also not too new. So, later down the road when I start building my costum PC for Ubuntu, I'll keep that in mind.,
[07:16] <emerson> Jordan_U: nothing at all.
[07:16] <nexsja> Jordan_U, oh. http://pastie.org/925402 there
[07:16] <Jordan_U> emerson: No application starts, no error message?
[07:17] <bullgard4> SwedeMike: '~$ dict orly; 1 definition found; From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:  Orly: n 1: a southeastern suburb of Paris; site of an international airport serving Paris.' Do you mean this?
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> goodfella121:  i always check reviews for best 'value' cards.  i dont see a point in splurging on somthing thats easioally replaced.
[07:17] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: no.
[07:17] <emerson> Jordan_U: when I try to run any of those softwares that I told you somethimes I can download but I can't see the videos .
[07:18] <goodfella121> Dr Willis: Another good idea. I wouldn't have thought of that. ill keep it in mind! :D

[07:18] <balkierode> Hi.. I created a socks proxy with ssh -D, how do i configure tsocks to use it?
[07:19] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you run "sudo mount -o remount /" and pastebin the output (if any) and then the output from dmesg again?
[07:19] <h00k> whore: can you please change your nickname
[07:19] <nexsja> sure
[07:19] <steven__> is there a free bot for linux
[07:19] <whore> why hook
[07:20] <whore> i like this nikename
[07:20] <balkierode> Hi.. I created a socks proxy with ssh -D, how do i configure tsocks to use it?
[07:20] <_blackwater_> !nick | whore
[07:20] <steven__> h00k:can you help me
[07:21] <SwedeMike> bullgard4: do you really expect people to HELP you with that attitude? I don't understand why you are even here. What do you think will happen?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | whore

[07:21] <steven__> do you know if there a bot for gaia online on linux for free
[07:21] <h00k> whore: /nick newnick
[07:21] <h00k> whore: It is not appropriate.
[07:22] <tucemiux__> !troll
[07:22] <peterson> any fix for pulse audio not working well when open firefox and rhythmbox?
[07:22] <tucemiux__> !admin
[07:22] <nexsja> Jordan_U, http://pastie.org/925405 remount didn't generate any output
[07:22] <peterson> !pulseaudio
[07:22] <balkierode> hello..
[07:23] <bleepbloop> hey
[07:23] <tucemiux__> thank you h00k
[07:23] <DexterLB> does someone remember where there was a setting that allows changing app-specific k/b shortcuts by hovering on them in the menus and pressing the desired keycombo?
[07:23] <balkierode> Hi.. I created a socks proxy with ssh -D, how do i configure tsocks to use it?
[07:24] <balkierode> DexterLB:ITs in System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts
[07:24] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Can you write files now? If not, can you pastebin the output of "mount"?
[07:24] <nexsja> Jordan_U, hm, now i can create files with touch
[07:24] <nexsja> Jordan_U, sure, just a sec
[07:25] <DexterLB> balkierode: nope, these are the globals
[07:25] <balkierode> U can add custom ones too.
[07:25] <peterson> what the fvck is going on with flashplayer 10 and rhythmbox?
[07:25] <DexterLB> for commands
[07:25] <Jordan_U> nexsja: No need for the mount output (though it doesn't hurt). The default for ubuntu and most distros is to remount root read only when there is an error.
[07:26] <balkierode> ya, Click on the add buttton there and enter ur custom commands.
[07:26] <DexterLB> I'm sure there's a gconf key but the gui setting is probably hidden in lucid/karmic due to windoze/noob compatibility
[07:26] <Jordan_U> nexsja: So at some point during boot there is an error critical enough that it triggers a read only remount.
[07:26] <DexterLB> I don't need commands, I need to change app's shortcuts
[07:26] <DexterLB> well I can do it by app prefs but that one was a neat setting
[07:26] <Jordan_U> nexsja: The command I gave remounts / again with default options, i.e. rw.
[07:26] <balkierode> oh. ok.
[07:27] <balkierode> Can someone help with proxy stuff?  I created a socks proxy with ssh -D, how do i configure tsocks to use it?
[07:28] <h00k> !language | peterson
[07:28] <Gnea> peterson: something's going on with them?
[07:29] <nexsja> Jordan_U, thank you so very much! I never had this issue before. On my laptop i run ubuntu and never had anything like that. Now all I need is to make the server normally visible to the web. resolv.conf got rewritten and no more dns problems. I can ping google.
[07:29] <peterson> gNEA: YES there is no sound when open them at the same time.
[07:30] <peterson> !language | h00k
[07:30] <nexsja> Jordan_U, if i reboot the system now will it bring back everything that i didn't because of the error? (apache/sshd/etc)?
[07:31] <Jordan_U> nexsja: Well you still have something happening at boot that the system considers a fairly critical error. And I see no reason why it shouldn't continue happening when you reboot or earlier.
[07:32] <Gnea> peterson: well, that's a problem then, huh?
[07:33] <faca> Hello, I use Debian Lenny (or ubuntu) with mdadm + raid1, 2 disks and encrypted ext3 partitions. I need to backup daily but the destination is exactly equal to the source. The incremental backup should not take long. That serves to replace backup disks of the server if necessary without having to change anything. I need to backup via network. I can use?.
[07:33] <peterson> there is a lot problem out there.
[07:33] <nexsja> Jordan_U, i did a reboot and it sda5 had an error, the system ran a check and fixed the issue. Everything is up, as far as i see it
[07:34] <peterson> I think Ubuntu is not human friendly.
[07:34] <techdude> Why do you think so, peterson?
[07:34] <Gnea> peterson: it helps if the human is friendly to begin with.
[07:34] <techdude> Gnea: I Agree.
[07:34] <nexsja> Jordan_U, another small issue. How can i permanently change the machine's hostname? "hostname <new_hostname>" doesn't seem to change it. After the reboot the old one is back :/
[07:34] <techdude> We all need a little patience. ^_^
[07:34] <ayam_jago> techdude, i agree :)
[07:34] <Gnea> peterson: for instance, usage of the f-word just isn't right.
[07:34] <faca> dd does not work as there is no differential copies.
[07:35] <Gnea> peterson: it's considered very unfriendly
[07:35] <nexsja> peterson, it is friendly, it just chooses it's friends wisely
[07:35] <phani> Hi... I have just installed lucid lynx on vmplayer 3.0.1 and its successful.. however i can't use my keyboard to login ...any ideas what might be wrong ?
[07:35] <peterson> Because when u start to use it u have a lot issue to come across and takes a lot time to google around and sometimes no fix.
[07:35] <Jordan_U> !hostname | nexsja
[07:35] <h00k> !lucid | phani
[07:35] <Gnea> peterson: yes, that's true. there is a learning curve.
[07:35] <techdude> There for, Google is our best friend. Like it or not.
[07:36] <Gnea> fortunately, it's easier nowadays to find the information you need than it was 10-15 years ago
[07:36] <techdude> We all rely on it.
[07:36] <h00k> peterson: you can also check the forums for your questions.
[07:36] <greezmunkey> Gnea: no doubt!
[07:36] <peterson> h00k: I already did but no fix.
[07:36] <geekphreak> Gnea:  i think people are more aware and google definatly helps :)
[07:36] <Gnea> most of the time, you had to figure things out on your own or track down someone who had the time to explain things.
[07:36] <Gnea> geekphreak, techdude: totally
[07:36] <greezmunkey> Gnea: books and usergroups...
[07:36] <h00k> peterson: I suppose sit tight, then. If it's a Flash problem, write to Adobe and tell them your feelings!
[07:37] <techdude> Peterson: What was was your question?
[07:38] <techdude> Although I must say, Ubuntu does have some working on to do, it's always a good challenge. :)
[07:38] <peterson> h00k: I think this is a pulse audio problem. Flash player cannot play with music player at the same time.
[07:38] <wombatman> sounds like it
[07:38] <h00k> peterson: I know flash doesn't always do well with sound itself
[07:39] <peterson> techdude: I got brightness issue haven`t solved and this sound issue.
[07:39] <techdude> Sound, as in you can't hear anything?
[07:40] <techdude> If that, have you played around with the sound preferences? Changing profiles and testing all of them out?
[07:40] <peterson> techdude: no, cannot play music when I opened firefox.
[07:40] <techdude> As in YouTube?
[07:40] <ayam_jago> peterson, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras from terminal
[07:40] <peterson> techdude: yes.
[07:40] <emerson> Jordan_U: I know is there I tryed it too, but when I download and try to run I can't see the image nor the sound.
[07:41] <techdude> Yeah, try what ayam_jago advised.
[07:41] <techdude> I had the same problem..
[07:41] <wombatman> I think ubuntu is human friendly. Some hardware and old software isn't ubuntu or in this case always pulseaudio friendly
[07:41] <peterson> ayam_jago: I have checked this package in synaptic I`ve already did.
[07:42] <techdude> Hmm..
[07:42] <techdude> Can you hear everything else?
[07:42] <techdude> Clicks, etc.?
[07:43] <Asad2005> Can some one help me get rid of this error

[07:44] <peterson> techdude: any idea how to solve the firefox and music player playing together but no sound problem?
[07:45] <geekphreak> peterson:  does sound work  in other browser ? , maybe that youtube clip dont have sound :)
[07:45] <exnihilo> peterson - did you just do the update too? my sound in firefox is gone also.
[07:45] <techdude> peterson: Can you hear everything else?  However, I want a seperate partition for ubuntu; so, running from bios to the boot flash gets me to a ubuntu desktop, but the install does not open? how should I proceed?
[07:48] <aetaric> how often does that happen?
[07:48] <peterson> geekphreak: yes sound is OK.
[07:48] <h00k> !arn qpt
[07:48] <exnihilo> my sound works fine everywhere else, just not in the browser.

[07:50] <Sk_Lg> techdude: it goes to the starting desktop (programs seems to function, gpart) but when clicking the install icon, it just thinks for a few secs
[07:50] <peterson> anyone here share a light?
[07:51] <n00b01> HI!! when does 10.04 come out??
[07:51] <techdude> Sk_Lg: Does it give you any options?
[07:51] <h00k> ubottu: tell n00b01 about lucid
[07:51] <Sk_Lg> techdude: no
[07:51] <techdude> Also, it should give you an option on Wubi to install on another partition.
[07:51] <Sk_Lg> techdude: let me check really quick
[07:52] <aperson> gnome-volume-control is the applet I'm looking for, but I don't know what package that's in :/

[08:05] <tech_dude> Welcome back, freez.

[08:05] <Sk_Lg> *this applet is horrid
[08:05] <maginot> freez, dd if=<disk> of=img
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> freez:  you could use 'dd' to make a image.
[08:05] <Sk_Lg> so, should I run the wubi, or just boot from the flash drive?
[08:06] <ouyes> hi all
[08:06] <techdude> Hmm..
[08:06] <Guest62237> Hey, i recently installed lampp http/ftp/ect servers. I am looking for a script that i could run on the server so it can create a users folder in the web directory saving me to do it everytime manually..any ideas?
[08:06] <techdude> Try booting from the flash.
[08:06] <freez> I am trying to make the image to recover data, but when I try to do that i get weird messages on other programs
[08:06] <Sk_Lg> and installing, brings me to the ubuntu desktop
[08:06] <techdude> And you get stuck there?
[08:06] <techdude> Because it never installs?
[08:06] <techdude> Or..?
[08:07] <Sk_Lg> yea, the install ubuntu doesn't do anything
[08:07] <ouyes> i have a problem with the SM player, it stopped sometime when playing some films

[08:09] <techdude> Welcome, natarajan.
[08:09] <rocket16> Although I am a fan of Open-Source, but is ClamAV really reliable when compared to Avast? (I mean, the free Avast Version, Ubuntu). I am thinking of using an Antivirus, since one of my friends once got infected after receiving a file from my System (He was using Windows).

[08:10] <jakerue> anyone can help erase a cdfs partition from a western digital mybook external hard drive?
[08:10] <the_file> not good
[08:11] <Flannel> chrisTLC: You'll want to change that password
[08:11] <rocket16> Dr_Willis: Nice saying, :) Thanks,
[08:11] <chrisTLC> the_file, Not real too.
[08:11] <rocket16> h00k: Ok, no problem, thanks
[08:11] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  it thats some special partition like those U3 flash drives use. Ive deleted those with gparted/fdisk befor.
[08:11] <h00k> rocket16: I suppose read the reviews, try them, I'm not sure. You're sure this infected file came from you and this was the only possible point of infection?
[08:12] <jakerue> Dr_Willis my drive isn't U3 and I have it up in gparted now and can only see 930G out of 1T
[08:12] <h00k> ubottu: tell rocket16 about virus
[08:12] <techdude> Damn.
[08:12] <natarajan> techdude: before that I'm using my gmx mail in firefox 3 version but I'm update my system day before yesterday now the firefox name is change its shows namaroka web browser kindly help me I want to remove this and reinstall firefox 3 version.
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> rocket16:  ive seen people in here the last few weeks that used AV software to scan for windows viruses and stuff and scanned their linux box's and had some false positives.. they wrongly removed the falsepositive.. and broke their ubuntu system badly
[08:12] <chrisTLC> natarajan, Namaroka is Firefox-3.6
[08:12] <techdude> Yeah.
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  what does 'sudo fdisk -l' say about the partition layout?
[08:13] <techdude> Thank you, Chris.
[08:13] <natarajan> chrisTLC:how could i remove the version ?
[08:13] <rocket16> h00k: sadly yes. It was really an infected file practically. My friend scanned and it was detected. (But I did not have any problem, since it was a .exe file, and linux is safe)
[08:13] <Carlos_H> Sk_Lg: Anything new?
[08:13] <rocket16> Dr_Willis: I see,

[08:13] <Carlos_H> Welcome, everybody. :)
[08:13] <chrisTLC> natarajan, "aptitude search firefox-3" -- It'll list all packages.  i = installed.  p = not installed.
[08:14] <Carlos_H> Hey, first of all..
[08:14] <Carlos_H> DONT USE FAT.
[08:14] <thisdotpheonix> use thin
[08:14] <rocket16> h00k: Not really, since it was infected, and slowed his Windows. It also open IE several times, like an adware. But is was a virus, as it was infected with Win.Sality.Q, a polymorphic virus
[08:14] <kaushal> hi
[08:14] <kaushal> is TB 3.04 available in jaunty-backports ?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  its a fat32 filesystem.. where did this 'cdfs' stuff come from?
[08:15] <Sk_Lg> i am going to burn the .iso on the flash again, see if that improves it
[08:15] <jakerue> Dr_Willis: it's a 1T drive
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  so?
[08:15] <Carlos_H> Sk_Lg: If it fails again, try what I advised.
[08:15] <Sk_Lg> although I am considering putting 10.04 on it
[08:15] <jakerue> Dr.Willis: In gparted I can only see 930G
[08:15] <ayam_jago> how to kill process from internet dj console? > idjc?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  you are expecting to see what exactly?
[08:15] <Carlos_H> I'm downloading Linux right now. T.T
[08:16] <Carlos_H> Got an hour and twenty minutes left.
[08:16] <InHisName> One ubuntu box has a memory leak.  How to attack and find it? tried ps -eo pid,sz,comm|sort -n -k2,2|awk '$2>10' > fyle.txt and compared to later time.  Still not seeing much clues.
[08:16] <natarajan> chrisTLC: kindly guide me and take my system in remote and solve the problem .
[08:16] <chrisTLC> Dr_Willis, jakerue: Maybe some a RAID mirror? Some external hard drives come with pre-made 1-to-1 mirror.
[08:16] <Carlos_H> Who wants to stay on with me til then? :D
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  a 1tb drive shows up as --> 976760001   blocks here
[08:16] <h00k> Carlos_H: do you have any specific questions?
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> Drive makers like to sort of lie about the #'s :)
[08:17] <Carlos_H> Not at all, h00k. Just here to try to help some people. :)
[08:17] <h00k> Carlos_H: cool :)
[08:17] <chrisTLC> natarajan, No. It is too of a hassle. It's easier if you learn how to do this.  Make sure to purge firefox-3.6* whatever (using sypathic, maybe?) Then if you want to remove PPA. You can do so in Software Sources.
[08:17] <Dr_Willis>   my 1tb hd -->  /dev/sdh1             932G  714G  219G  77% /media/Videos1000
[08:17] <Carlos_H> h00k: Yep. :) How about you?
[08:17] <DarthPuff> jesus christ
[08:17] <DarthPuff> whyyyyyyy
[08:17] <jakerue> Dr.Willis, chrisTLC: It is Western Digital...they do put their own software built into the drive and I want to get it off.  fdisk does show it as  976074752 but gnome only sees 930Gigs
[08:17] <h00k> Carlos_H: same deal :)
[08:17] <h00k> jakerue: you'll lose approximately 7% due to formatting
[08:18] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: /dev/sda3             6.9G  2.8G  4.1G  41% /
[08:18] <DarthPuff> beat that
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  my gnome sees my 1tb as 930gb also..   and 5% is reserved by default.. and theres overhead
[08:18] <Carlos_H> h00k: Nice.. I just don't like how Ubuntu is missing a lot of drivers. So I'm downloading Linux Mint. :D
[08:18]  * Dr_Willis beats DarthPuff  over the head with a MFM hd.
[08:18] <chrisTLC> jakerue, Check WD's website for possible downloadable exe to remove extras. I know I did that with my annoying U3 for flash drives.
[08:18] <jakerue> Dr_Willis, hook: hmmm I didn't realize that.  Thanks
[08:18] <DarthPuff> Carlos_H: just build in your own drivers
[08:18] <jakerue> chrisTLC: you can stop it from auto loading but you can't remove it
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  if fdisk is showing 1 partition. then theres nothing hidden on it.
[08:19] <rocket16> But, although Ubuntu is secure, Forkbombs really trouble us sometimes. A few days ago, my friend ran a script accidentally, and that inserted a Forkbomb, hanged the Ubuntu system, inserted the forkbomb in his start-up script (/etc/init.d), and what more?
[08:19] <mneptok> jakerue: it's a difference between base-10 and binary size calculations
[08:19] <geekphreak> jakerue:  you can always send the drive to me, if you think its faulty ;)
[08:19] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: :\ the drive is 8 gigs, but then i have a swap and a 500 meg home dir... then a 2gig flash drive built into the laptop and another 4gb sd card :D
[08:19] <h00k> rocket16: it's only as safe as the user, really.
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> 'biggest danger to a ubuntu system these days' seems to be the end user :)
[08:20] <rocket16> Is there any Forlbomb scanner?
[08:20] <Carlos_H> h00k:  Agreed haha.
[08:20] <rocket16> * forkbomb
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> there are settings that can limit the effects of a forkbomb.
[08:20] <rocket16> Dr_Willis: I agree
[08:20] <natarajan> chrisTLC: I want to learn so guide me.
[08:20] <h00k> rocket16: ...no, just don't run stuff if you don't know what it is
[08:20] <mneptok> jakerue: have you formatted the drive already? if so, with what filesystem? and what partitions?
[08:20] <Carlos_H> Yeah, was just about to say that haha.
[08:20] <Carlos_H> The scanner is yourself. :)
[08:20] <jakerue> Dr_Willis, mneptok: OK I think it's fine then.  I put it as FAT32 b/c it's hooked to a FON and they only want FAT32 for torrent downloads :(
[08:20] <rocket16> Dr_Willis: Yes, but Iam thinking of making a Shell Script to do a little scanning to unknown scripts,
[08:21] <thisdotpheonix> how do i change the nick in irc
[08:21] <thisdotpheonix> ..?
[08:21] <mneptok> jakerue: FAT32 has a 4GB file size limit.
[08:21] <ayam_jago> thisdotpheonix, /nick newnick
[08:21] <Carlos_H> Click your name.
[08:21] <Carlos_H> Lol.
[08:21] <greatachiles> and how do i register it..?
[08:21] <chrisTLC> natarajan, "aptitude search <xyzPackage>" -- Will list related packages.  "sudo aptitude remove <xyzPacakge>" will remove related packages. I usually use "sudo aptitude purge <xyzPackage>" to remove related packages and config files.
[08:21] <mneptok> !lol | Carlos_H
[08:21] <jakerue> mneptok: yes I know....but not my choice....talk to fonera
[08:21] <h00k> !register | greatachiles
[08:22] <Carlos_H> Ahaha
[08:22] <ayam_jago> lol
[08:22] <mneptok> !lol | ayam_jago
[08:22] <ayam_jago> hahahahahahahaaaaa
[08:22] <h00k> ayam_jago: please stop.
[08:22] <Carlos_H> !lol | mneptok
[08:23] <chrisTLC> Carlos_H, Get hold of yourself.
[08:23] <ayam_jago> h00k, ok
[08:23] <mneptok> Carlos_H: !botabuse is another factoid.
[08:23] <jakerue>  geekphreak: I do think the drive is faulty.  I get the Disk Has Many Bad Sectors warning when I plug it into my box
[08:23] <Carlos_H> D:
[08:24] <geekphreak> jakerue:  how old is the drive ?
[08:24] <Carlos_H> I'm a horrible person. :(
[08:24] <jakerue> geekphreek: about 2 months
[08:25] <mneptok> jakerue: run fsck.vfat on it
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  those warnings can be a little - overzelous i find.  Itw best however to error on the side of caution and always have backups
[08:25] <geekphreak> jakerue:  so it is still under warrenty, which is a good thing
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> jakerue:  often hd makers have specific tools at their sites to do through scans of the driuves.
[08:25] <faca> howto listen partitions in KB (not in blocks) ?
[08:25] <W43372> is there any way that I can use the esc key to close whatever window I'm currently focused on, and also set it up to shut the computer down when it's focused on the desktop?
[08:26] <dugger5688> Yeah, one time NTFS-3g swore my drive was going to splode and kill everything. The thing still works fine and passes SMART. It's ext4 now though.
[08:26] <jakerue> mneptok: OK I'll give it a go.
[08:26] <Carlos_H> faca: What?...
[08:26] <h00k> jakerue: see if it has S.M.A.R.T. enabled also
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> W43372:  i doubt if thats goign to be easially done.. if its doable at all. and i can imagine that would cause lots of problems.
[08:26] <geekphreak> faca:  you can use sudo cfdisk to list partition in more readable form
[08:27] <linux> I justed installed LXDE with fressh install of ubuntu - I have no permissions to access anything I copied from my old home directory to the new one.  What can I do?
[08:27] <mneptok> faca: or "df -h"
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> linux:  use the root user to set the proper ownership of the files via 'chown' command
[08:27] <faca> geekphreak, cfdisk listen in blocks
[08:27] <dugger5688> chown
[08:27] <faca>  mneptok df only listen mount partitions
[08:28] <mneptok> faca: correct. so mount them.
[08:28] <faca>   i need view ALL partitions (mount or not) ni KB
[08:28] <geekphreak> faca: not here
[08:28] <linux> Dr_Willis: who do I do that for the whole /home directory?
[08:28] <shreymech> need help... i installed window in my one partitition and now when i m trying to install grub from ubuntu live cd.. in terminal - sudo grub.... it is saying command not found
[08:28] <dugger5688> sudo chown -R 'youruser:youruser' [files]
[08:28] <faca> geekphreak, howto use cfdisk in kb ? sorry for my english
[08:29] <geekphreak> faca: it shows in mb here, you just want as kb?
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> linux:  each user has theor own /home/username  dir. it  and the files in it have to be owned by them to work properly
[08:29] <faca> geekphreak, yes, in kb
[08:30] <linux> dugger5688:  is there a shortcut for tell it all files in the home directory?
[08:30] <linux> dugger5688: of am i supposed to type out each name?
[08:30] <mneptok> linux: sudo chown -R $USERNAME:$USERNAME /home/$USERNAME
[08:30] <dugger5688> linux: you only want to hit the ones that you copied, stick them all in one folder and just use that.
[08:31] <faca> geekphreak, not view this in man page..
[08:31] <natarajan> kindly help me .

[08:32] <shreymech> ayam_jago, ok .. let me check it.. thanx
[08:32] <ayam_jago> shreymech, your welcome
[08:32] <linux> dugger5688: $USERNAME???
[08:32] <mneptok> linux: use your username
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> linux:  try 'echo $USERNAME' and see if it prints your username...
[08:33] <dugger5688> you replace $USERNAME with your user
[08:33] <chrisTLC> Dr_Willis, I think $USER
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> gotta love env variables.
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> Thats what i was thinking also.. but wasent sure. :)
[08:33] <chrisTLC> Dr_Willis, Oh that works too. ;o
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> of course if your usernameis 'root' well.. :)
[08:33] <linux> Dr_Willis: I got nothing
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> linux:  use the proper name foryour user then.
[08:34] <mneptok> linux: type "whoami" in a terminal, that's your username.
[08:34] <dugger5688> reason #412 that pulse fails, no good way to manage volumes via terminal... unless there's something I don't know.
[08:35] <linux> so it "sudo chown linux:linux /home/linux  - user is linux
[08:35] <mneptok> linux: correct
[08:35] <linux> what was the -R part for?
[08:35] <dugger5688> you forgot -R, if there are sub dirs
[08:36] <mneptok> linux: recursive
[08:36] <chrisTLC> linux, -R is for what you said earlier "is there a shortcut for tell it all files in the home directory?"
[08:37] <linux> so if I want to change permission for the other use as well I just use the name command substituting their name even if I am logged in as me
[08:37] <mneptok> linux: correct
[08:37] <dgeary2> has anyone experienced openoffice moving diagrams after printing the document?
[08:37] <dgeary2> *in writer
[08:38] <linux> awesome!  thank you all for your help :)
[08:38] <geekphreak> chrisTLC: something like ls -laR fo.der| wc -l ?

[08:39] <chrisTLC> geekphreak: Hmm?
[08:39] <geekphreak> chrisTLC:  though you wanted total number :)

[09:23] <Dr_Willis> !pin
[09:23] <gr8m8> ayam_jago: if there's a man page it prob is installed - checked the xorg log to see if it is used?
[09:24] <greenymonkey> No one can help me?
[09:25] <gr8m8> greenymonkey: you could try in #winehq maybe
[09:26] <greenymonkey> gr8m8: but the website that this bot gave me says I just have to -simply- add -opengl to the end of my WoW launcher
[09:26] <ayam_jago> gr8m8, i cant found /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:27] <gr8m8> greenymonkey: well do that - at the end of the command the launcher points to
[09:27] <greenymonkey> gr8m8: at the end of what command :s
[09:28] <gr8m8> ayam_jago: doesn't get made automatically these days - read /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:28] <gr8m8> greenymonkey: what launcher is it?
[09:28] <greenymonkey> launcher.exe
[09:28] <greenymonkey> ?
[09:29] <ayam_jago> gr8m8, i found failed to load module "sis"
[09:29] <gr8m8> greenymonkey: you need to ask in #winehq then or find another site to read

[09:29] <greenymonkey> gr8m8: ok thanks

[09:30] <jakerue> mneptok: same result from fsck.vfat -f [09:30] <topgun1> ciao
[09:31] <gr8m8> ayam_jago: is the module in the path that the log lists
[09:31] <mneptok> jakerue: so there are no problems at the filesystem level (yet). the physical level may well have issues. SMART can help there.
[09:31] <jakerue> mneptok: OK I will see if I can get SMART sorted
[09:32] <mneptok> jakerue: is there data in the disk/partition?

[09:38] <Almustafa> Hello. I am ubuntu advocator working on convincing organizational switch to ubuntu. I have a user (VIP on organizational switch) travlling with his ubuntu and stuck with problem of wifi authentication. seek help here. Problem: password correct, but nmapplet keep asking for re-authentication.
[09:39] <jakerue> mneptok: yeah but I want to keep it in FAT32 for Fon.  Should I just go to ext3 and back?
[09:39] <Almustafa> nmapplet only offered WPA1+2.
[09:39] <mneptok> Almustafa: ensure the correct encryption protocal is used. WEP vs WPA etc etc
[09:39] <mneptok> jakerue: precisely. use the formatting procedure as a test of the media.
[09:39] <Almustafa> and the password is correct by checking against other people on the spot, it contains 't' in it so it cannot be WEP key
[09:40] <Almustafa> he had keyring problem first, that I struggled by letting him drop ~/.gnome2/keyring/* that he can reach the autentication window
[09:40] <mneptok> Almustafa: is there any MAC address filtering?
[09:40] <jakerue> mneptok: OK I am running SMART now and will go to ext3 and back if I need to. Thanks for the help
[09:40] <Almustafa> Almustafa: hardly, because he had been that wifi before.
[09:41] <Almustafa> mneptok: he had been to that wifi before, with ubuntu 64bit, which I had to change to 32 bit for 3rd party software requirement .
[09:41] <Almustafa> mneptok: and this time is right after switch to 32-bit ubuntu
[09:41] <Almustafa> mneptok: he had been to that wifi before, with ubuntu 64bit, and worked before.
[09:42] <Almustafa> mneptok: capslock also checked on the phone.

[09:42] <Gesi> does anyone here know how can  i install virtual box in backtrack 4 ????
[09:43] <Almustafa> mneptok: no nmapplet does not offer user to chosoe any other than WPA1+2 personal, according to user description on the phone. the user is definitely not stupid one
[09:43] <mneptok> Almustafa: WAPs, not WPA
[09:43] <Almustafa> mneptok: sorry,
[09:43] <mneptok> Almustafa: "wireless access points"
[09:44] <Almustafa> mneptok: sure, that adds to the list. I'll write a list to check when calling him back. I am a bit pressed because the person is respected VIP having a saying on organizational switch to ubuntu.
[09:45] <mneptok> Almustafa: who makes the wireless chipset?
[09:45] <Almustafa> Almustafa: lenovo. we are in China.
[09:45] <saki> Hello, I have just installed ubuntu 9.10 and was going through installing some programming tools where I noticed Ultra Edit, It say it is free but when the installation completed it is asking to ultra edit is askin to pay
[09:45] <Almustafa> Almustafa: lenovo makes the notebook. chipset unsure. tested working in his China office.
[09:45] <mneptok> Almustafa: if the vendor does not provide a reliable Linux driver, it makes clear the point that a migration to Ubuntu requires careful hardware decisions.
[09:45] <geekphreak> saki:  which language you gonna be working with?
[09:46] <Almustafa> mneptok: sure, but it worked here in china, and worked for him when he travel to that wifi before, so it's sane to believe hardware works. we tested it before letting him have it.
[09:47] <saki> I work on multiple languages Java, PHP, Perl, Ruby, etc I use vim mainly. However some time I need an editor like crimson editor to edit files quickly.
[09:47] <Almustafa> mneptok: if it connects, but DHCP does't work properly, can it behave like described?
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> saki:  i like 'geany'
[09:47] <geekphreak> saki: geany is pretty good ;)
[09:47] <MacKay44> bonjour

[09:48] <Almustafa> mneptok: it offer password authentication once 2 minutes, and use 2 minutes to 'searching...' in nmapplet.
[09:48] <saki> I never heard of geany
[09:48] <saki> let me google it
[09:48] <Dr_Willis> saki:  avail for windows and linux. GPL licemnses

[09:48] <Dr_Willis> its like an editor + ide features.. smaller then most ides.
[09:49] <mneptok> saki: check out KomodoEdit, also
[09:49] <geekphreak> saki:  after geany install is done, make sure you get the plugin from synaptic
[09:49] <Almustafa> mneptok: very risky, as he is not even sure where backslash is (never use that for his profession and type blindly in german layout on an english keyboard), guide him through commandline difficult.

[10:06] <nikolam> OK, how do I report a bug if every time it is saying: This is not genuine Ubuntu package?
[10:06] <ubuntu> i cant instal ubuntu  9.10
[10:06] <nikolam> It is from PPA and I want to report it ti them
[10:06] <ubuntu> i klik  "install ubuntu"  and wait .... and nothing
[10:06] <geekphreak> nikolam: really, first time seeing that message on linux, seen it on windows many times
[10:07] <nikolam> geekphreak, I dont care for , windows, right?
[10:07] <geekphreak> nikolam: you know better :p
[10:08] <mrsun> is there any performance tricks one can do for the fglrx driver for it to perform better?
[10:08] <nikolam> I just know there is no way for me to save debug info if it is "not genuine ubunutu" .. What a hack
[10:08] <ubuntu> how write in console ?  i want instal 9.10 ??
[10:08] <martiner> Nyopne around here familiar with ps3 mediaserver? I cant play .mkv files without remuxing them to mt2s (therein not having dts audio anymore)?

[10:09] <geekphreak> ubuntu sorry , i did not get you?
[10:09] <ubuntu__> i had to upgrade from 8.4 to install 9.10 try that if you cam ubuntu
[10:09] <iflema> c_c you should, if you have the time, report the bug and see if theres any one else in your boat... you may find a soulution looking for a similar bug in the bug tracker. Under thehelp menu you can lodge a bug report.....
[10:09] <ubuntu__> if you have 8.4 on your puter
[10:10] <BoBtheButhcer> irc://irc.auswana.net:6667 channel
[10:10] <nikolam> ubuntu, tried alternate install CD ? Also check where you actually install etc, If your CD drive gives you trouble, you can also make and install from USB (use unetbootin tool to make it, etc)

[10:10] <c_c> iflema: ok
[10:12] <Tessa> just trying 10.4 beta2 its going to be good when the final version is out
[10:12] <om26er> Tessa: Yeah !
[10:12]  * iflema here here
[10:13] <Gesi> tessa: but i would like more changes
[10:13] <Gesi> ....
[10:13] <Tessa> will have to wait and see what the final version brings
[10:13] <lalalol> hey, is canadian english available on ubuntu?
[10:14] <Tessa> and no doubt that will be upgraded as it goes along
[10:14] <mneptok> martiner: the PS3 does not support Matroska-encapsulated MP4
[10:14] <Gesi> tessa: of course...
[10:14] <martiner> No,. but Iḿ running it through ps3mediaserver which is suppose to transcode .mkv...
[10:15] <mneptok> martiner: never used it. check the config for the server daemon.
[10:15] <Gesi> tessa: but this is LTS and there wont be a lot of changes because they want  to have a stable version
[10:15] <martiner> Iḿ running 64 bit ubuntu, read somwehre to fix permissions for tsmuxer... question is, i dont know where...
[10:16] <mneptok> Gesi / Tessa: discussions of beta features is offtopic for this channel
[10:16] <om26er> how do I format a filesystem so that Its permissions are set to the user not root?
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  what filesystem are you using>
[10:17] <toyman61> Thunderbird 3 on Windows XP (not booted, but disk available). Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS> on Ubuntu 9.10. I want to merge mail from TB3 to TB2 and use TB2 as my main mail repository. How ?
[10:17] <om26er> Dr_Willis: brtfs
[10:17] <Gesi> ok... sorry
[10:17] <Gesi> bye to everyone , i have to go
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  for ones that support linux permissions.. Mount it. then chown the mountpoint to be owned by the user
[10:17] <Gesi> i ll be back later :)
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  or make a directory on the fs. and chown that tobe for tu user to work in
[10:18] <propagandhi> u can specify the mount permissions etc in the mountpoint in /etc/fstab too
[10:18] <digifor> I am trying to connect to Facebook with https
[10:18] <om26er> Dr_Willis: done that already but was wondering about something like gnome disk utility has 'change drive permissions' type of thing?
[10:18] <digifor> I get the following error: www.facebook.com uses an invalid security certificate.
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> propagandhi:  that wont work properly for filesystems that support the linux permissions/ownership stff
[10:19] <Tessa> sorry about about that mneptok
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  it rember permissions/owners on a PER FILE/DIR -  You dont just override them (that i have ever seen)
[10:19] <digifor> The certificate is only valid for the following names: a248.e.akamai.net , *.akamaihd.net
[10:19] <digifor> Is this related to date/time?
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  except for ntfs/vfat  and others that dont support the  normal permissions/ownership feature
[10:20] <om26er> it has the option 'take ownsership of the filesyste'
[10:20] <om26er> and it works for extx
[10:20] <oneirosFade> Hey folks, how's things?
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  it does? never seen that  befor.  what does Mount? or whate exactly?
[10:21] <geekphreak> which file system?
[10:21] <Sk_Lg> what kind of partition do I have to create to install a dual boot ubuntu?
[10:21] <om26er> Dr_Willis: click on format
[10:21] <om26er> format volume
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> Sk_Lg:   linux wants an ext2/3/4 normally
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  click in format where exactly?
[10:22] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: dual booting with windows?
[10:22] <om26er> Dr_Willis: palimpsest. (gdu)
[10:22] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: make sure you install windows first :d
[10:23] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: I have, now I am partition drives, the options are use as: and 3 of them at ext2/3/4 so what one do I choose?
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> om26er:  looks liek its just setting the owner of the root of the filesystem. same as that mount command/chown would have done
[10:24] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: matter of choice mate, i create normally 2 partitions for linux , 1 swap( which is nearly double the amount of your RAM), other ext 2/3/4
[10:25] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: go for ext3, if you will be getting files  from linux partitions from within windows :)
[10:25] <geekphreak> afaik ext4 drivers are still not done for windows
[10:25] <Sk_Lg> so for the swap, primary/logical, and mount point?
[10:26] <charreedawn> hey
[10:26] <geekphreak> swaps dont have mount point , which partitioning tool are you using?
[10:26] <mirak> hi
[10:26] <om26er> Dr_Willis: ok
[10:26] <the_file> http://www.shunya.net/Pictures/NorthPole/me-on-bowfront.jpg
[10:26] <Sk_Lg> the install create partition atm
[10:26] <the_file> http://www.shunya.net/Pictures/NorthPole/Yamal-front.jpg
[10:26] <ikonia> the_file: why are you posting that
[10:26] <ikonia> the_file: stop
[10:27] <mirak> is it possible to do a raid 1 from an existing setup ?
[10:27] <geekphreak> ok
[10:27]  * om26er like gdu for features but the interface dont fit netbook :(
[10:27] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: so should the swap be primary or logical?
[10:27] <ikonia> Sk_Lg: it doesn't matter
[10:27] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg:   choose first partition as swap , which is like double of your RAM, logical
[10:28] <aaaoooaaa> hi guys, i have a question regarding themes, i downloaded and installed a couple from this site http://www.techiesouls.com/2008/11/27/collection-of-50-best-looking-linux-gnomeubuntu-themes-to-download/ but they are not showing up in my appearence preferences theme "list"
[10:28] <aaaoooaaa> what am i doing wrong?
[10:28] <oneirosFade> I need suggestions as to a music app; Using Gnome desktop, collection is OGG and fairly large.  Current player pretty much chokes when I try to search for an artist or whatever...
[10:28] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: other  mount point / , ext3 or ext4 , your choice
[10:29] <oneirosFade> aaaoooaaa:  You installed them through the theme manager window, I assume?
[10:29] <aaaoooaaa> oneirosFade: yup
[10:29] <Babalabon> Is the close buttons in ubuntu 10.4 on left side (does it have to be this way? or can you keep it on right side of the window, as it is on most os'
[10:29] <usamahashimi> hi
[10:29] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: ok, for ext3, what do you suggest? and what is the difference?
[10:29] <usamahashimi> what %F stands for?
[10:29] <Mighty_Penguin> Babalabon, the controls by default are on the left, you can easily choose another theme and it changes to the right
[10:29] <oneirosFade> aaaoooaaa:  They may not have been full "themes" -- try looking for their components under the "Customize..." selection
[10:29] <aaaoooaaa> oneirosFade: thas the one in the right click>change desktop background > themes tab path right?
[10:29] <oneirosFade> aaaoooaaa: Yes
[10:30] <AcePreshaw> !caps
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> Babalabon:  its changeable.
[10:31] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: get ext3 for now, as it would make your work easier getting files,
[10:31] <aaaoooaaa> oneirosFade: yeah cool thanks, how do i identify if a theme that Im downloading is an in/completetheme?
[10:32] <ikonia> you can't
[10:32] <ikonia> contact the theme makers for support if it's not working
[10:32] <Dr_Willis> aaaoooaaa:  theres nopt that many 'complete' themes.
[10:32] <Dr_Willis> aaaoooaaa:  teres a few unofficial ppa/repos that have some nice complete themes.
[10:33] <geekphreak> ikonia: howdy
[10:33] <ikonia> hello
[10:33] <aaaoooaaa> aaaoooaaa: cool thanks ill google it
[10:33] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: so, what partition to I select for the installation?
[10:33] <aaaoooaaa> Dr_Willis: what keywords am i looking for
[10:33] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: ext3
[10:34] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: no root file system is difined
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> aaaoooaaa:   check the omgubuntu web site and the webup8.com site (i think) there a Bissingi repo/ppa that has some
[10:34] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: , it would make it easier for you to work with files
[10:34] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg:  during setup , when you choose ext3, mount point hsould be /
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> aaaoooaaa:  thers also several other tools out that can help install extra theme stuff
[10:35] <Dr_Willis> aaaoooaaa:  'gstyle' is one such tool.
[10:35] <qwerkus> Hi everyone: i'm sort-of running ubuntu 9.10 on an msi h55-e33 mobo, and gnome keeps crashing. I read somewhere that you need a newer kernel version .... sooo could anyone point me to a *minimalistic* kernel compiling howto, designed for h55 chipset issues ? I read a few generic tutorials about the linux kernel, but they are just way too many options now.
[10:35] <aaaoooaaa> Dr_Willis: cool thanks
[10:35] <madjid> um
[10:35] <AcePreshaw> noob
[10:35] <funkyHat> qwerkus: sort-of... does that mean "actually not running ubuntu"?
[10:35] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: what ?
[10:36] <madjid> i see a white terminal as soon as i log in! i have a gnome GUI
[10:36] <AcePreshaw> the bots
[10:36] <qwerkus> sort-of means: running but keeps crashing
[10:36] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: what about them ?
[10:36] <madjid> :( what may i do!!
[10:36] <AcePreshaw> the bots r noobs
[10:36] <Sk_Lg> geekphreak: great! seems to be install = )
[10:36] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: don't be silly - they are useful tools, don't call things "noobs"
[10:36] <AcePreshaw> r not
[10:36] <geekphreak> Sk_Lg: :)
[10:36] <madjid> can anybody help me?
[10:36] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: ignore them then
[10:36] <AcePreshaw> !ask
[10:37] <AcePreshaw> soz
[10:37] <geekphreak> madjid: hello
[10:37] <madjid> :d hi
[10:37] <geekphreak> madjid:  just terminal nothing else?
[10:37] <madjid> yep
[10:37] <AcePreshaw> im in ubuntu-ie and the bot is a noob
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  or do you mean the ;
[10:37] <sangho> what is the not most relevant in Linked List?   Null, Search, Remove, Link, Data
[10:37] <geekphreak> madjid: it looks like you took of xserver and you are loggin to failsafe
[10:37] <funkyHat> qwerkus: have you managed to track down the cause of the crashes, or are you just working on the assumption that it's a kernel problem?
[10:37] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: stop going on about it
[10:37] <madjid> and nothing happens
[10:38] <AcePreshaw> i cant stop
[10:38] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  or do you mean the  'console' ? you have a mouse pointer moving about? you did login at the GDM screen?
[10:38] <billy2007> AcePreshaw, do you even know what a noob is?
[10:38] <AcePreshaw> im #**&^
[10:38] <madjid> yes i got my mouse!
[10:38] <ikonia> AcePreshaw: please check you're pm's - I've helped you stop
[10:38] <qwerkus> funkyHat: no, I know where the problem comes from; the intel h55 chipset ain't supported in my kernel version. You need 2.6.33 or above
[10:38] <RCZA> madjid : what mouse ?
[10:38] <madjid> am in the gui! but nothing loads!! no desktop! nothing
[10:38] <RCZA> ah
[10:38] <RCZA> ok
[10:38] <RCZA> nm
[10:38] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  so you have a 'terminal' in one corner basically. instead of the full desktop when you logged into X.
[10:38] <madjid> mouse pointer
[10:39] <geekphreak> qwerkus: i am on intel h55 series, no worries here
[10:39] <madjid> exactly
[10:39] <RCZA> though it was some funky mouse by mail order
[10:39] <RCZA> :p
[10:39] <RCZA> haha
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  you dident accidently select 'xterm' at the gdm login screen?
[10:39] <qwerkus> geekphreak: which cpu ?
[10:39] <om26er> !enter | RCZA
[10:39] <geekphreak> qwerkus:  i 5 series cpu
[10:39] <madjid> um, i didn't do anything which caused it!
[10:39] <RCZA> sorry
[10:39] <billy2007> ikonia, did you ban AcePreshaw
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  its possible you did.
[10:39] <madjid> i just ran a program, then the pannels went away
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> madjid:  try the command 'gnome-session' in the terminal - see if gnome starts up
[10:40] <qwerkus> well, I'm on h55+i3, and it definitely keeps freezing all the time
[10:40] <madjid> and after that i restart the pc, i saw the console
[10:40] <madjid> um
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> madjid:   a xterm in X is NOT the console.
[10:40] <geekphreak> qwerkus: how much RAM?
[10:40] <qwerkus> 4Gb
[10:40] <madjid> aright, brb
[10:40] <geekphreak> same here ddr3
[10:40] <CQ> hello, I have the old private directory in my home dir, how can I get the whole home dir encrypted?
[10:40] <funkyHat> qwerkus: geekphreak which release of ubuntu are you using, and are you running 32 or 64 bit?
[10:40] <zongo_> I am a bit confused as far as my music library. Isn't possible to have my music library separate on an external HDD. As opposed to have it internally
[10:41] <geekphreak> funkyHat:  32 bit lucid
[10:41] <zongo_> I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and banshee
[10:41] <Mighty_Penguin> zongo_, you can put your music anywhere you please, you would just have to readd the music to your music player
[10:41] <qwerkus> C'mon guys. I already went to the whole 'traking down the problem' process. Turns out all I need is to upgrade the kernel (got this from gentoo foras) and since I'm running ubuntu, I'm just looking for a managable way to upgrade my kern
[10:42] <geekphreak> CQ:  is you current account encrypted?
[10:42] <qwerkus> *through
[10:42] <funkyHat> qwerkus: there are packages of the 2.6.33 kernel which you could try
[10:42] <qwerkus> prebuilt ?
[10:42] <funkyHat> qwerkus: yes
[10:42] <qwerkus> got the repos link ?
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> theres PPA repos for newer kernels.. (scary!)
[10:42] <marijn> I'm experiencing a 20 sec boot delay between lines
[10:42] <sanjay>  sir i m getting sh:grub> on my ubuntu 9.10 screen when i boot it? sir wat 2 do?
[10:42] <marijn> ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023]  GUID [001e8c000139073e]
[10:42] <funkyHat> I thought there was a ppa too but I can't find it
[10:42] <G_A_C> there's a MainlineKernel page you could search ofr on the Ubuntu Wiki which will tell you
[10:42] <marijn> udev: starting version 151
[10:42] <marijn> anyone care to give me a hint?
[10:42] <FloodBot3> marijn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:42] <funkyHat> Dr_Willis: do you have a link for that?
[10:42] <zongo_> I have tried different player such as Banshee, RythmBox, and none of them seem to be able to play from an external location without having to add my music to the local library (internally)
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> funkyHat: other then googling for 'ubuntu kernel ppa' Nope
[10:43] <madjid> alright i did it
[10:43] <zongo_> is it right or am I doing something wrong here ?
[10:43] <madjid> "gnome-session"
[10:43] <madjid> and i got my desktop back
