[17:50] <theGman> sburwood: +1 = more than one. :)
[17:50] <RevChas> guntbert: And I use a KVM switch to flip between hosts.
[17:51] <Guest58217> cmpsalvestrini, tried that already
[17:51] <Addle> Hello
[17:51] <wk_exeon>  hdmi vid wont work on 10.04
[17:51] <mophead> Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with flash in firefox 3.6.3. Audio won't play but video is fine.  I updated the adobe flash plugin to Ubuntu APT and it worked but when I rebooted the computer it stopped working again.  Any ideas?
[17:51] <danutzmilea> well, i've downloaded the deb, tried the terminal, got a bunch of errors (dpkg -i bla bla) then removed it... then tried the package archive thingy that usually makes it all happen and nothing, still a bunch of errors. oh yes... and first i removed alsa and pulseaudio using a guide i found on the web
[17:51] <theGman> sburwood: I have approx 10 diff email addys :P
[17:51] <minimec> |corpse|: uninstall all fglrx driver and reinstall all xorg and mesa packages with your synaptic tool.
[17:51] <danutzmilea> osstest doesnt work at all
[17:51] <|corpse|> minimec: ok working on that now
[17:51] <acicula> danutzmilea, there are oss4 packages in the repository, why not use those
[17:51] <danutzmilea> now i'm stuck without any sound
[17:51] <minimec> |corpse|: Also that config too.
[17:52] <theGman> Dr_Willis: So, since pinning is sort of opposite what I need, how would one dg wine to 1.1.5?
[17:52] <|corpse|> minimec: the radeon.conf?
[17:52] <Guest58217> is it possible to mount a filesystem in any folder?
[17:52] <theadmin> Where is an nmap channel?
[17:52] <theadmin> Guest58217: Generally yes
[17:52] <danutzmilea> i dont really know which ones... oh, and by repository you mean the ubuntu software thingy?
[17:52] <minimec> |corpse|: Hmm... You can open a console and  'sudo rm /etc/modropbe.d/radeon.conf and then run sudo update-initramfs -u -k -all again. Like that, everythig is undone.
[17:52] <theGman> Guest58217: As long as the folder exists and isn't a system folder (meaning you have access to it as your user)
[17:52] <gregorio_> supprot italian pls
[17:53] <theadmin> ubottu: it | gregorio_
[17:53] <acicula> danutzmilea, yeah, those are packaged to work with ubuntu, so i'd start with installing those and removing the debs you installed manually
[17:53] <nelson_> sburwood, see http://www.gnomefiles.org/subcategory.php?sub_cat_id=70
[17:53] <Guest58217> theadmin, also, if I can open a network path to a windows share, then shouldn't I also be able to create a symlink and expect it to work?
[17:53] <danutzmilea> i already removed the debs (dpkg -r bla bla)
[17:53] <benja> hola
[17:53] <benja> hablan español?
[17:53] <theadmin> Guest58217: Well... I think so.
[17:53] <danutzmilea> i'll try the repository then, thanks
[17:53] <max0> hey all, as I've upgraded to 10.04, the wallpaper option in compiz (to use different wallpaper in each workspace) is missing, has this been removed or it's just in some different location?
[17:53] <theadmin> ubottu: es | benja
[17:53] <lantizia> !es benja
[17:53] <Guest58217> does no one do this?
[17:53] <sburwood> thx everyone
[17:54] <sburwood> bye
[17:54] <Elladan> Guest58217: It depends on how you open the network path.  If you do it from nautilus, it tends to use some userspace browser stuff instead of actually mounting it.
[17:54] <Guest58217> Elladan, if I open it from the "Connect to Server" it mounts on my desktop
[17:54] <RevChas> guntbert: OK, here's the weirdest part. It appears that the Shift, Ctrl and Alt keys do nothing while I'm trying to type into this hosts console, but on any other host it works just fine.
[17:54] <|corpse|> minimec: should i be using the x.org binary driver?
[17:55] <Guest58217> Elladan, how hard can it be to get it to mount there every time?
[17:55] <wk_exeon> i need help wit hdmi vid netbook to tv
[17:55] <deletet> need help i need to install ubuntu  like lvm becouse i have 2 hdd   anyy ideea
[17:56] <minimec> |corpse|: That is the best and only choice besides VESA for your card. I am running a radeon 9600 mobility on my laptop. I am quiet happy with the performance.
[17:56] <theGman> Anyone on how to downgrade an app since pinning won't work for me?
[17:56] <danutzmilea> acicula, i definetly have no idea what i'm doing... i dont know which to install... says there the oss base package is already installed
[17:56] <Necrosporus> I have added my phone to bluetooth
[17:56] <danutzmilea> but when i try to run the mixer thingy there's a gstreamer error
[17:56] <Necrosporus> I have set up broadband wireless connection
[17:56] <Guest58217> here's my line from /etc/fstab that's not working smb://Server/WindowsUser$/ /home/randomusr/Desktop/WindowsShare smbfs  defaults 0 2
[17:56] <kleanchap> I am trying to install VirtualBox additions on Ubuntu but I am getting the message that only root can install these tools.  How do I switch or install as root?
[17:56] <Necrosporus> How can I now connect?
[17:57] <Elladan> Guest58217: It doesn't look like it.  When I do connect to server it still seems to use a userspace browser
[17:57] <|corpse|> minimec: Version: 2.8.723.1-0ubuntu3 (xorg-driver-fglrx)?
[17:57] <mateobur> Hello
[17:57] <minimec> kleanchap: sudo 'your command'
[17:57] <greezmunkey> If I don't have a sound card here, is there really any reason for me to reinstall ubuntu-restricted...
[17:57] <Guest58217> Elladan, is there any way to mount it on each boot?
[17:57] <mateobur> I can't see the tray notifications of ubuntu one in my tray, how can I enable this ?
[17:57] <max0> my volume icon disappeared from the tray area, any idea how to get it back?
[17:58] <Elladan> Guest58217: Yes.
[17:58] <minimec> |corpse|: No fglrx. uninstall all these fglrx packages.
[17:58] <|corpse|> minimec: or <IP_ADDRESS>-1ubuntu5 (xserver.xorg-video-radeon)
[17:58] <|corpse|> ok all fglrx packages are gone
[17:58] <Necrosporus> How to connect my ubuntu machine to the internet?
[17:58] <kleanchap> minimec, thnx!
[17:59] <Guest58217> Elladan, I've added the line See above to mount, but this does not work. Could it be that I need to pass the username and password to the server?
[17:59] <Necrosporus> I have gprs-enabled mobile phone with bluetooth support
[17:59] <minimec> |corpse|: yes.
[17:59] <Elladan> Guest58217: You need to use a real filesystem level mount if you want it to work transparently, either fusermount (?) or smbfs.
[17:59] <Elladan> Guest58217: Oh, let me scroll up.
[17:59] <mcsmurf> when I try to suspend to RAM (Ubuntu 9.10) and only get a blinking cursor at the top left corner of the screen, does this indicate a driver/kernel module problem? does the blinking cursor mean it waits for something?
[17:59] <minimec> |corpse|: reinstall also all installed libmesa* packages.
[17:59] <deletet> Elladan,  now somthing about lvm ?
[18:00] <Guest58217> Elladan, tell me how close that line is to correct
[18:00] <wk_exeon> i need help wit hdmi video config on 10.04
[18:00] <Elladan> Guest58217: Can you /msg me the line?  I don't seem to have it in my scrollback
[18:00] <theGman> So, no one on the downgrading an app Q then? Hmmm...
[18:00] <theGman> :P
[18:00] <theGman> brb
[18:00] <acicula> danutzmilea, if you dont know what you are doing why not stick with alsa/pulseaudio instead of using tutorials which may not even be valid/relevant for your system? from what i gather the software oss4 packages are packaged for ubuntu 10.04, so if it says they are installed you will just need to configure them and your system to use the oss4 subsystem
[18:00] <roberto_> lantizia: do you know how can I list the chanels on irc.gnome.org ? /list doesn't do it
[18:01] <ashdojfie> hello
[18:01] <youcker> hi
[18:01] <acicula> roberto_, not all irc servers support /list, which is the only way to list channels
[18:01] <ashdojfie> i have problem on boot
[18:01] <minimec> wk_exeon: We need GPU Model and Driver opensource/closedsource?
[18:01] <ashdojfie> the system cannot mount filesystem normally and mount it only in read-only mode
[18:01] <acicula> !downgrade| theGman
[18:01] <acicula> ashdojfie, its ussually caused by a filesystem error that it cannot fix
[18:02] <danutzmilea> acicula, alsa and pulseaudio are making a buzzing sound... oss4 worked for me on ubuntu 9.04
[18:02] <roberto_> acicula: thank you
[18:02] <ashdojfie> nad how can i resolve?ù
[18:02] <ashdojfie> i should reinstall all?ù
[18:02] <unclemantis> #apache is not about apache anymore :( Can I get some subdomain help in here?
[18:02] <acicula> ashdojfie, did you reset/change bios settings recently?
[18:02] <ashdojfie> no
[18:02] <ashdojfie> i controlled with fdisk and partition is ok
[18:03] <acicula> the system tells you to run fsck with some options, does that work/finish?
[18:03] <dgriffin831> HI, I currently have 2 linux distros dual booting on my macbook. Both are ubuntu based (one 8.10, one 10.04).. Id like to make the 10.04 grub the default bootloader, any ideas?
[18:03] <ashdojfie> the strange item is that in read-only mode i can see all
[18:03] <Elladan> Guest58217: Yes, I believe you need a user= and pass= in there
[18:03] <ashdojfie> so the mount problem where is?
[18:03] <Elladan> Guest58217: See man mount.smbfs or man mount.cifs
[18:04] <acicula> ashdojfie, it mounts in read only because there are filesystem errors detected, the read only is to avoid corrupting the filesystem further
[18:04] <ashdojfie> ok, so i should check the filesystem and retry?
[18:04] <ashdojfie> is an ext4
[18:04] <ashdojfie> what is the command for deep check?
[18:05] <acicula> ashdojfie, yup, thats what the system tells you to do too i think?
[18:05] <fynn> penguin42: I figured it out.
[18:05] <penguin42> fynn: Yeh?
[18:05] <_pg_> does anyone know how I can get all my precious typefaces from osx (fontbook) to Ubuntu Lucid?
[18:05] <ashdojfie> is tto fast the message and in console it show me only a message like (cannot mount so mount filesystem in read-only)
[18:05] <max0> dgriffin31: you have to edit your /etc/default/grub
[18:05] <RevChas> guntbert: Any ideas on why the modifier keys might stop working?
[18:05] <fynn> penguin42: it was actually several issues. the weirdest of which is the fact that defining a function inside .bashrc apparently broke the start procedure.
[18:05] <ashdojfie> i look on dmesg but no message usefull
[18:05] <acicula> ashdojfie, hold shift and pageup/down to scroll
[18:06] <penguin42> fynn: Odd
[18:06] <dgriffin831> Im currently dual booting 2 ubuntu based distros(8.10, 10.04) and currently the 8.10 GRUB is overriding the 10.04s.. Id like to have the 10.04 override it for less boot time. Any ideas on how to give priority to one of the bootloaders on seperate partitions?
[18:06] <acicula> ashdojfie, dmesg will not hold anything pertaining to fsck, aside disk errors
[18:06] <ashdojfie> ok i retry
[18:06] <acicula> !repeat | dgriffin831
[18:06] <Xethron> How do I open the package manager in lubuntu?
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  are they TTF fonts?
[18:06] <guntbert> RevChas: sorry no
[18:06] <|corpse|> minimec: should i also load amd/ati driver wrapper?
[18:06] <max0> dgriffin831: you have to edit your /etc/default/grub
[18:06] <ashdojfie> can you give me the ommand for check ext4?
[18:06] <ashdojfie> pleeeease ^^
[18:06] <dgriffin831> thank you max
[18:06] <acicula> dgriffin831, depends on how you want to boot, you can put bootloaders on individual partitions and use one grub to choose between them
[18:07] <_pg_> Dr_Willis: some. they are a mixed bag
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  theres sevarl package manager programs . i always use synaptic.
[18:07] <fynn> penguin42: so GDM doesn't start when I have a function defined in my .bashrc. I'm still not entirely sure why I should source my .bashrc in my .profile
[18:07] <dgriffin831> each parition has its own version of grub right now
[18:07] <Xethron> Is there a command to open the gui for the package manager? Coz I cant find it anywhere in lubuntu...
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:   I tend to just copy the fonts all to my users .fonts dir.
[18:07] <acicula> !dualboot
[18:07] <minimec> -pg- http://www.ubuntu4life.com/How%20to%20use%20OS-X-fonts%20in%20ubuntu
[18:07] <max0> dgriffin831: change the default option and after that run sudo update-grub
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  try 'synaptic'
[18:07] <penguin42> fynn: weird
[18:08] <_pg_> Dr_Willis: where is that?
[18:08] <acicula> !fsck
[18:08] <theGman> acicula: Ha, not trying to downgrade UBUNTU, just one app. :)
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  .fonts = users home dir
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  if you want them for all users. they go in some system dir.
[18:08] <red> "Systems Testing" app is stuck on my screen
[18:08] <Xethron> Dr_Willis, thanks, but there is another one that Gnome uses?
[18:08] <red> I'd kill it but I'm unable to find what it's prcess name is
[18:08] <acicula> theGman, works more less the same way, but you can try to remove it and fetch an older deb
[18:08] <red> any ideas?
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  /home/bubba/.fonts
[18:08] <geolr> Hi all! I can not manage to type in an adress field in nautilus such as smb://<IP_ADDRESS> Any hints? Ths
[18:08] <Xethron> I think it was customly made by Ubuntu
[18:09] <CloudMonkee> slackware > ubuntu
[18:09] <acicula> ashdojfie, not sure but you check a disk with fsck <device>
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  theres dozens that you CAN use. 'synaptic' is the default one that most all deb/ubuntu based disrtos can use/include
[18:09] <theGman> Guess I just do what Dr_Willis said and uninstall and install that specifiv vers. (you just said that I see :P )
[18:09] <dgriffin831> max0   i do not have a /default/grub on either partition
[18:09] <_pg_> Dr_Willis: How did you know my username was bubba.....
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  im working on my own ubuntu variant. called BubbaBuntu :)
[18:09] <minimec> |corpse|: What is the exact name of that package?
[18:09] <max0> dgriffin31: it's /etc/default/grub
[18:10] <acicula> ashdojfie, it may stop and ask you to use a flag to fix errors automatically, which should be ok. If you dont know why your disk is corrupted or if it gives lots of errors maybe first boot a livecd and try to backup data from the readonly mounted disk so you dont loose data?
[18:10] <dgriffin831> yes i know, its not there.
[18:10] <_pg_> Dr_Willis: haha nice.
[18:10] <ashdojfie> no loose data ^^
[18:10] <ashdojfie> i'm junst in a live
[18:10] <ashdojfie> :D
[18:10] <ashdojfie> i try fsck
[18:10] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, what will bubbabuntu emphasize on?
[18:10] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  Whatever i feel like :)
[18:11] <roberto_> getting really strange behavior with my dns. often times it works, really fast , but foten when I brwose it hangs looking up an address. or just pauses. if I go the the terminal and dig that address, it will return the address fairly quickly and suddenly the browser will find the address.
[18:11] <acicula> ashdojfie, your livecd gives the error it cant mount its own root?
[18:11] <|corpse|> minimec: xserver-xorg-video-ati X.Org X server -- AMD/ATI display driver wrapper
[18:11] <quatar-it> hi all! i have 2 questions for you.
[18:11] <Dr_Willis> so far ive moved the controls back to the right. and  removed the theme/wallpapers i dont like.. and got some stuff preinstalled.
[18:11] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, what do you feel like? i want to hear more about bubba
[18:11] <red> roberto_: you could try using googles dns, it's address is <IP_ADDRESS> (secondary is <IP_ADDRESS> )
[18:11] <ashdojfie> nono
[18:11] <dgriffin831> max0 :   could it possibly be the /boot/grub/default ?
[18:11] <ashdojfie> i use live for come in chat ^^
[18:11] <guntbert> !ot | CloudMonkee
[18:11] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  go roll your own at https://build.reconstructor.org/#
[18:11] <roberto_> red: it's lightning fast _always_ from dig from the commandline. it's just the broqwser that seems broken
[18:12] <acicula> ashdojfie, when you check a disk make sure its not mounted then
[18:12] <quatar-it> Can i register accounts on empathy without telling it my passwords? i don't want to store them, i want to type them all the times.
[18:12] <red> yo uusing ipv6?
[18:12] <minimec> |corpse|: yes
[18:12] <acicula> !ipv6
[18:12] <roberto_> red: I thought no, how can I verify?
[18:12] <tadas> hi
[18:12] <acicula> roberto follow the instuctions on that alst link for your browser
[18:12] <roberto_> acicula: thanks
[18:13] <|corpse|> minimec: ok all mesa and xorg files installed without error. crossing fingers and rebooting
[18:13] <wick94> hey guys
[18:13] <minimec> |corpse|: Yeah...
[18:13] <DJAshnar> Anyone here familiar with WUBI trouble shooting?
[18:13] <wick94> is it possible to add sound notifications in gwibber
[18:13] <daggs1> hello, does the ubuntu livecd has nfs4 and lvm2 support?
[18:14] <ashdojfie> how can i make free the resourcxe? (fsck.ext4: Device or resource busy durante l'apertura di /dev/sda)
[18:14] <Xethron> Dr_Willis, thanks. One more question. How can I install the developmental version of wine 1.1.44 instead of the current 1.0.1
[18:14] <sebastian_> .
[18:14] <tadas> i have karmic with kde on my pentium m 1.8g with ati bobility radeon x700. It uses battery within an hour, while windows xp works for more than 2.5h. How do i make my karmic use less energy?
[18:14] <red> roberto_: check your connection settings
[18:14] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  i think theres ppa's for it.. but if you really want the latest - you may need to use teh source.
[18:14] <tadas> *mobility
[18:14] <red> from the nm-applet in gnome-panel
[18:14] <acicula> ashdojfie, make sure the disk is not mounted
[18:14] <ashdojfie> not mount
[18:14] <DJAshnar> When I install 10.04 via WUBI, and try to boot into it, it gives the error of "no WUBILDR"  Any thoughts?
[18:14] <CQ> hello, I have a LVM volume which fails fsck with IO errors... I have it backed up, but what do I run to chekc it and get it to ignore bad blocks?
[18:15] <Xethron> Dr_Willis, can't you use the package manager?
[18:15] <acicula> ashdojfie, also you hvae to check a partiion, which is not /dev/sda, but !!for example!! /dev/sda1, or /dev/sda2
[18:15] <ddilinger> anyone familiar with mysql-server-5.1 in lucid?  Upon installing the postinst script just sticks at "start mysql"
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  if you can find premade packages.. yes.. but if theres none.. well you cant.
[18:15] <quatar-it> To all: is that a fatal bug? When I switch user (being still logged on) and then log out the second user, i expect to return to the first user locked screen. But not: i get into a black screen which doesn't respond to clic, hit on keyboard and so...
[18:15] <SwedeMike> CQ: ignore bad blocks how?
[18:15] <amanda_> !compiz
[18:15] <guntbert> !latest | Xethron
[18:15] <tjingboem> it takes 30 seconds after login in that i can use Ubuntu. can i shorten this period?
[18:15] <daggs1> does the ubuntu livecd has nfs4 and lvm2 support?
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> Xethron:  thats why i suggested finding the PPA's but even those may not be as up to date as source.
[18:15] <ashdojfie> thanks now works ^^
[18:16] <amabo> does anyone here have dockbarx working?
[18:16] <CQ> SwedeMike: I know there's a bad block check command for devices, can't think of the name now, it's in a few crypto howtos for how to erase drives
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> amabo:  it works fine here.
[18:16] <acicula> SwedeMike, you can ignore badblocks by setting a flag in fsck that will ignore them, you typically dont want to do this
[18:16] <amabo> Dr_Willis:  i keep getting errors...
[18:16] <ddilinger> where are upstart jobs configured from?
[18:16] <acicula> ddilinger, /etc/init
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> amabo:  i followed --> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/dockbarx-030-released-with-window.html
[18:16] <acicula> /etc/init/ even
[18:16] <CQ> SwedeMike: badblocks I think it is ... dows that work with LVM?
[18:16] <SwedeMike> CQ: badblocks can scan a drive for bad blocks, but I don't really understand what it is you're trying to do.
[18:16] <_pg_> Dr_Willis: is it invisible?
[18:17] <Xethron> thanks Dr_Willis
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  .fonts   Note the .
[18:17] <amabo> thanks Dr_Willis
[18:17] <DJAshnar> Any help on WUBI?
[18:17] <CQ> SwedeMike: that, but the bad blocks are in an LVM volume ...
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> _pg_:  like all .FILES   they are hidden by default. it may not exist by default either.
[18:17] <SwedeMike> CQ: yes, step back one step, and please descrive what it is you're trying to accomplish.
[18:18] <acicula> CQ, you have badblocks, program and in fsck as a flag, it does not matter if you use LVM, thats just a fs abstraction layer. Badblocks is not a secure erase program, though you can use it to wipe a disc(sortof)
[18:18] <CQ> SwedeMike: when I fsck /dev/mapper/lvmgroup-home I get IO errors. I want to fiy that
[18:18] <BobPenguin> hey guys, I just installed Ubuntu One, but it does not start up when I click on the application Icon. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04. Any hints?
[18:18] <bsmith093> how do i make everything under a directory and all its sub directories owened by me
[18:18] <acicula> bsmith093, chown has a recursive flag -R
[18:18] <trism> quatar-it: about your empathy password question, it isn't implemented yet, but they are working on it (bugs https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24868 and https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14003)
[18:18] <CQ> bsmith093: look at the chown command chown -R youruser.yourgroup *
[18:18] <Klick> i need a good webcam that works with ubuntu 10.04
[18:18] <SwedeMike> CQ: fiy?
[18:18] <GeekSquid> bsmith093: sudo chown username:username /directory -R
[18:18] <guntbert> BobPenguin: there is #ubuntuone for support
[18:18] <Klick> any suggestions?

[18:19] <CQ> SwedeMike: fix, sorry
[18:19] <BobPenguin> thanks guntbert!
[18:19] <bsmith093> so "sudo chown -R user"
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> find ~ -user "root" -exec sudo chown -v "$USER"."$USER" {} +
[18:19] <SwedeMike> CQ: so is this actually bad blocks on the drive, and you just want to zero the bad blocks (rewrite them with zeroes) or what do you want to do with the bad information?
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> :)
[18:19] <Andy80> how can I know the minimum Ghz I can set my processor?
[18:19] <CQ> SwedeMike: I just want the drive to work... all the data is backed up.
[18:19] <greezmunkey> GeekSquid: That rolls in the group settings too?
[18:19] <GeekSquid> bsmith: chown needs the user:group syntax
[18:19] <guntbert> BobPenguin: Good luck :-)
[18:19] <roberto_> I'm wrong about the commandline being always fast, it just hung doing it that way. I did apply the fix applicable to my computer from that ipv6 guide though
[18:20] <bsmith093> how do i know what group im in
[18:20] <SwedeMike> CQ: so what do you want to happen to the blocks that are bad?
[18:20] <DJAshnar> So.  No help on wubi?
[18:20] <dgriffin831> Does the grub-set-default command set the default partition in menu.lst or does it acctually choose which particular partitions grub to use?
[18:20] <zipper> AH ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! imma back and i have fixed the  problemo airtonix
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> bsmith093:  each user has a group thats the same as their uysername
[18:20] <CQ> SwedeMike: get the drive to not use them
[18:20] <roberto_> when it hung on fc08.deviantart.net this time, I went to the terminal and did a dig -- the result came back saying ;; Query time: 18 msec
[18:20]  * Dr_Willis hides from zipper
[18:20] <amanda_> What's control alt up do in compiz with the cube setting on?  I can't figure it out.  Is there a list somewhere?
[18:20] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, do you have any type of degree in comp science, etc?
[18:20] <roberto_> but it took like 15 seconds
[18:20] <bsmith093> k thanks everybody
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  No.
[18:20] <GeekSquid> greezmunkey: true, and in my world I do it by default, most of the time, there are rare instances where I will use something else, however my world is a single user env,
[18:20] <DagonIT> Is there someway to select speakers?
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  I got a degree in agriaclutural engineering
[18:21] <amanda_> CloudMonkee, he's just got the "one of the smartest guys in here" award
[18:21] <zipper> Dr_Willis: how nice of u to say hi plus i have fixed da problemo
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  without resorting to a reformat/reinstall?
[18:21] <acicula> CQ, SwedeMike typically drives manage badblocks themselves once detected, so you should not use badblocks to flag blocks yourself unless your disk is so far gone that it cant do that
[18:21] <SwedeMike> CQ: so you're ok with file system corruption if rewriting the bad data with zeroes?
[18:21] <zipper> Dr_Willis: well nope i reformated it
[18:21] <Polemus1> i get an error: "getaddrinfo: name or service not known" when i try to use terminal service to rdp to a windows server 2003 box
[18:21] <greezmunkey> GeekSquid: me to here, maybe that's one of those things you would only do an a machine owned by the user
[18:22] <CQ> acicula: fsck doesn'T complete its run and tells me to run it manually...
[18:22] <acicula> CQ, so run it manually and see what happens
[18:22] <CQ> SwedeMike: i don't care about the data on that partition, i just backed it up
[18:22] <zipper> Dr_Willis: now i can teach ppl to install it the safe way
[18:22] <acicula> CQ, without the badblocks
[18:22] <greezmunkey> I just realized the Brasero isn't included in Lucid...after installing k3b
[18:22] <CQ> acicula: I get error messages for reading certain blocks, it then asks me if I want to ignore the error, and if I say yes, if I want to force a rewrite ...
[18:23] <zipper> Dr_Willis: alright ciao
[18:23] <GeekSquid> greezmunkey: Indeed, and in my expierence, most users here own their machines, or are super admins on them, so, they  can do what they want
[18:23] <SwedeMike> CQ: then you can just mkfs that partition and restore, then the blocks will be fine when data is written to them again (if the drive still has spare sectors to use instead of the bad ones)
[18:23] <tadas> i have karmic with kde on my pentium m 1.8g with ati mobility radeon x700. It uses battery within an hour, while windows xp works for more than 2.5h. How do i make my karmic use less energy?
[18:23] <greezmunkey> GeekSquid: ;)
[18:23] <acicula> CQ, that can happen, so force a rewrite
[18:23] <SwedeMike> CQ: use smartctl (from smartmontools) to make sure you don't have too many reallocated sectors on the drive.
[18:24] <CloudMonkee> tadas, that's one big difference.

[18:24] <jose> NO SPIKE INGLISH
[18:24] <CloudMonkee> tadas, have you tried to adjust the lighting(are we talking notebooks)
[18:24] <greezmunkey> tadas: you can start by looking through /var/log/daemon.log - it will show you if laptop mode is working

[18:26] <jose> YUM MY NAME IS
[18:26] <bsmith093> no imean im doing this so i can copy folders off what was a system drive but im on a live cd  so it wouldn't let me cause i wasn't the owner. but im just going to resotre them later anyway so when i want to restore them can i just chown them all again?
[18:26] <DiverDude> SwedeMike, on 10.04?
[18:26] <SwedeMike> DiverDude: yes.
[18:26] <tadas> today i did an experiment.  And also used powertop. BUt after all the retuning the running time only increased to approx 1.4 hours with lighting set to 0%
[18:26] <guntbert> jose: stop that
[18:26] <KnightStalker> http://www.winehq.org/ => how accurate this works?(how much .exe files will it load?)
[18:26] <Yum> jose, jajaja
[18:26] <jose> OK
[18:27] <greezmunkey> KnightStalker: I run adobe standard 6.0 on it with no problems - pretty heavy app.
[18:27] <CQ> SwedeMike: running fsck now... what should I do with smarttools afterwards?
[18:27] <dgriffin831> Im still having some trouble setting a specific partitions grub to override the other partitions.. file /etc/default/grub does not exsist.
[18:27] <jose> FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC JOSE
[18:27] <GeekSquid> bsmith093: you won't have to if you do it as sudo, then you are root and can do anything, regardless of ownership
[18:27] <jose> YOU FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC JOSE
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> KnightStalker:  totally depends on the specicc windows app.
[18:27] <tadas> is it possible somehow to kill all the bells and whistles and to move to simplier GUI?
[18:27] <guntbert> !es | jose

[18:27] <roberto_> how can I get audio with my msn in Evolution?
[18:27] <SwedeMike> CQ: smartctl -a /dev/<device> and then you need to read and understand what the drive is saying about re-allocated sectors.
[18:28] <jdalbert> Is there a way to adjust contrast on linux ? I've browsed on google, but haven't found any basic information
[18:28] <greezmunkey> Apparantly the keyboard definition for the dominican republic needs some work...;)

[18:28] <kahen> when Mono 2.8 and MonoDevelop 2.4 come out (with C# 4 features i.e. the DLR and 'dynamic'), will they be updated in Lucid, or do you have to wait for Maverick for them?
[18:28] <minimec> tadas: Are you used to ubuntu and Linux? There are some options, but you gonna leave the official supported mainline of 10.04 Lucid.
[18:28] <acicula> kahen, probably the latter, or maybe via ppa/ubuntu-backports
[18:29] <CQ> SwedeMike: the hard drive /dev/sda or the LVM partition /dev/mapper/lvmgroup-home?
[18:29] <Theravadan> i want to send F10 to gnome terminal but when i do thefile menu appears, how can i send f10 to the terminal?

[18:30] <tadas> minimec, my first ubuntu was feisty, then dapper and hardy. And i also have a debian server and solve problems by pasting errors to google :)
[18:30] <acicula> bsmith093, yes provided you have the permissions to do so
[18:30] <carl_> can anyone help  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ii5Fhh8n
[18:30] <zooko> Folks: I'm seeking indications of how many users there are left of Ubuntu Dapper, or indications of how quickly people upgraded from Dapper to newer editions (especially Hardy).
[18:30] <GeekSquid> Theravadan: in the edit menu, keyboard shortcuts, deselect the second checkbox
[18:30] <Dr_Willis> Theravadan:  check the profile settings in gnome-terminal, or other settings n the menu

[18:30] <temon> in linux
[18:30] <temon> lucid
[18:30] <kraut> moin
[18:30] <minimec> tadas: ;) OK. I guess that a lot of the difference you see is the ATI GPU POwer managment, which will be introduced in the 2.6.34 Kernel.
[18:30] <bsmith093> ok thanks for the help i figurued chown had a recursive flag i just couldn't find it
[18:30] <acicula> carl_, your sources list contains an invalid entry
[18:31] <acicula> carl_, remove it and run apt-get update again
[18:31] <guntbert> Theravadan: Edit/keyboard shortcuts/   right on top there are two checkboxes
[18:31] <temon> moin???

[18:32] <coder85644> I could not send messages there
[18:32] <Theravadan> sweet, with htop you can add IO read/write columns
[18:32] <minimec> tadas: You option is to ad that repository https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=lucid and take a 2.6.34 kernel from here... http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ Ther is also the undervolting option https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UndervoltingHowto
[18:32] <tadas> minimec, so i guess i should wait a couple of versions until GPU PM is introduced?
[18:32] <GeekSquid> !register | coder85644
[18:32] <bsmith093> will permissuions carry over if i later copy some file to a windows machine

[18:35] <jdalbert> Hi, is there a way to adjust contrast on linux ? I've browsed on google, but haven't found any information
[18:35] <minimec> tadas: no problem ;)
[18:35] <Dr_Willis> coder85644:  for starters its 'irc' - chatzilla is one of MANY irc clients out
[18:35] <can__> hello! how can i open the the "service manager" via bash?

[18:36] <BobPenguin> hey there.  Everytime I update my box my system breaks and I have to do a clean Install of everything, and that takes time. Is there any way I can upgrade and be sure my system will not break?
[18:36] <infid> George_e: yes just click the button to the left of it that says 'toggle between button and text based location bar'
[18:36] <roberto_> how can I get audio with my msn in Evolution?
[18:36] <greezmunkey> George_e: I just get rid of it, it isn't really necessary
[18:36] <trism> infid: chrome uses gtk, but it draws it's own window borders, but, if you got to options, personal stuff, under Appearance you can check "Use system title bar and borders" and it will match all your other apps
[18:36] <BobPenguin> I mean upgrade to a new Ubuntu...
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> Theravadan:  its customizeabe on the fly :) and does colors.. what Moar do ya want!
[18:36] <infid> trism: thanks
[18:37] <Theravadan> Dr_Willis, it's pretty. on my servers it's a lifesaver as I can ID who is reponsible for killing the disks
[18:37] <om26er> BobPenguin, clean installs are good :)
[18:37] <George_e> infid: To the left of it? There isn't a button there.
[18:37] <kell05> bobpenguin: What sort of errors do you get?
[18:37] <mum> i cant mount my usb dvd drive - no devices in /dev ..........  anyhelp?
[18:37] <simosiam> I can't play wesnoth anymore and I got many application crash since I update to ubuntu 10.04

[18:37] <roberto_> oo geez
[18:37] <vianocturna85> does anyone know what the irc channel for wine is?
[18:37] <roberto_> how can I get audio with Empathy?
[18:38] <airtonix> Theravadan, you might like to keep commandlinefu.com handy
[18:38] <GeekSquid> raul_: there's gopchop, pitivi, avidemux, to name a few
[18:38] <Meeko> What's a good mediaplayer that can connect, and list content, to a mediaserver (like mediatomb). Don't need a mediaserver applikation like XBMC.
[18:38] <kell05> pitivi video editor
[18:38] <infid> George_e: hmm, yeah in 9.10 there is, and in my desktop where i have 10.04 there isn't. not sure why, might be in the options somewhere
[18:38] <raul_> GeekSquid would you recommend one of them?
[18:39] <greezmunkey> vianocturna85: I think ##wine
[18:39] <Theravadan> airtonix, bookmarked, they speak my language
[18:39] <infid> George_e: has to be an option since mine is stuck on the text-box only
[18:39] <George_e> infid: searched the options... nothing there about that that I could see
[18:39] <vianocturna85> greezmunkey: your the only one in there lol
[18:39] <George_e> Maybe I missed something though.
[18:39] <GeekSquid> raul_: really depends on what I am doing, so no, I reccommend you try them all and see which one you like
[18:39] <BobPenguin> Thanks om26er and kell05. Clean installs might be are good but are time consuming! I haven't seen any message errors, the things just freezes and I'm unable to boot anymore. Is this a common issue with system upgrades?
[18:39] <greezmunkey> vianocturna85: #winehq

[18:40] <vianocturna85> jellow: thanks
[18:40] <raul_> GeekSquid thanks
[18:40] <om26er> BobPenguin, you use wubi install?
[18:40] <trism> George_e: it is an option, but I think it is only in gconf now, if you open gconf-editor, go to /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_location_entry and check it
[18:40] <dgriffin831> Looking for someone with knowledge of running grub with multiple ubuntu partitions and grub installations..
[18:40] <kell05> Bobpenguin:Not in my personal experience.  The machine I am on right now has made it through since hardy
[18:41] <Guest27053> the tor website is blocked here, can you give me a link?
[18:41] <George_e> trism: Thanks. That worked great... didn't even have to close the open windows!
[18:41] <kell05> Bobpenguin: Could be the file changes you are making during the install.
[18:41] <BobPenguin> om26er, no I do not use wubi. Well, maybe I should give it a try one more time. Is there any way I can prepare my box for the upgrade?
[18:42] <om26er> BobPenguin, disable all ppas in software sources and then update-manager -d
[18:42] <Theravadan> airtonix, i work with the author of bash and he basically rips out applications in shell script
[18:42] <invalidrecord> hi guys any idea why flashplugin-non free wont work running 64
[18:42] <kell05> Does anyone have any info on the pidgin-skype plugin?  Getting it to work? Running lucid?
[18:43] <Six6siX> can anyone recommend what codec's i need for divx xvid ac3 mp3 etc..
[18:43] <kell05> invalidrecord: 64-bit flash can be a pain in the bum to get working
[18:43] <BobPenguin> kell05, I do lots of stuff with my system, like adding medibuntu repositories and such. I'd guess most users do that. Thanks om26er for the advice, I guess I'll try it later and keep my fingers crossed!
[18:43] <arbo-> Six6siX, install vlc
[18:43] <invalidrecord> kell05: yeah remember but thought it was fixed

[18:44] <Dr_Willis> Guest27053:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tor
[18:44] <onetinsoldier> Six6siX: you might want to install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras'
[18:44] <GeekSquid> Guest27053: I do not believe any link to tor will be available in your country, the Iranian Govt. wants to see what you are doing on the net
[18:44] <Six6siX> also I've managed to set vlc
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> Six6siX:  right click on a video file, properties, set vlc to be the default
[18:45] <venger> anyone else with a Sony-NEC optiarc CD-ROM drive (although may not be limited to that model) still hitting the installer issue where part way through it asks for you to Please insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.....' and press Enter problem?  Looks like I'll have to find the old bug on this and see if there was ever a fix

[18:48] <Vigo> venger: Yes it is an old issue, looks like some have resolved it.
[18:48] <DiverDude> Does anyone in here have experience with getting the scrolling functionality to work for a mouse-track-device on a lenovo desktop?
[18:48] <greezmunkey> Well, there's a fix for a crazy error: When I would load gconf-editor, an error would show up like ./fonts.conf XML malformed (or similar) It turns out that the .fonts.conf file is full of invalid """'s !!!

[18:50] <Polemus1> is there an equivalent for "Windows Home Server" that i can use as a server that will backup my ubuntu pc's as well as serve as a media centre?

[18:52] <romeus> after a failed upgrade, I did a fresh install of Lucid on my T60 (ATI Radeon X1400 - R300). Even though the LiveCD booted and installed fine, the first boot after installation froze with a screen corruption. It now only boots to the command line and recovery mode, resetting X defaults, and failsafeX have not helped.

[18:56] <GeekSquid> __-osh-__: couple of problems, intrepid is EOL, you'll need to use the old versions server in your apt/sources.list, the other thing you can do is remove old kernels from /boot, ... all this can be done "online" but will require a reboot when done
[18:56] <Polemus1> erUSUL: thanx
[18:56] <minimec> romeus: We guess that it is more AGP PCIe PCi related. Try to force PCI mode.
[18:56] <cabbrick1243> Need some help with this one guys... Ok I have the 64 bit version of Lucid on my desktop it runs fine. However... when trying to access any TTY to change the login screen's looks, When Ctrl+Alt+F2 (or any of the F1-6) are pressed all i can see is a bunch of small illegible dots, that move as i type. It doesn't freeze but i would like to know how i can see them?
[18:57] <__-osh-__> GeekSquid: Yeah, well, I was going for latest LTS but it seems I have to go to Intrepid first?
[18:57] <Vigo> venger: tgm0 did a neat workaround, but please search Launchpad and other resources, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1000651.html

[18:57] <romeus> minimec: ok, interesting, how do I force PCI mode? BusType=PCIE?
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  other then perhaps to shutdown X  and they may come back

[19:07] <__-osh-__> I'm off for a bit.
[19:07] <GeekSquid> __-osh-__: hmmm, You'll need to disconnect one drive, allow the live disk to repartition it, then re-mirror it back to the backup drive after you test the new config, that way you will have a backup in case things go horribly wrong

This wasn't a problem in 9.10 with the same hardware :(  Any ideas on how to start troubleshooting?
[19:26] <Jon-> erUSUL: in ~/.bashrc?
[19:26] <erUSUL> Jon-: do not put the dollar sign
[19:26] <erUSUL> Jon-: yes
[19:26] <erUSUL> Jon-: when declaring variables you do not use the $
[19:26] <leleobhz> ive created a encrypted pendrive using karmic and now with lucid the automounting (asking password automatically) dont work
[19:26] <erUSUL> Jon-: only when using them
[19:26] <leleobhz> someone know what should i do?
[19:26] <roberto_> Dr_Willis: http://www.pastebin.org/210901 -- this is how I am calling it. that same command from the commandline works
[19:27] <Vigo> Polydwarf: nmap, zenmap or umit?
[19:27] <Jon-> erUSUL: Single quote around string literals only? What about an int?
[19:27] <Debjit> harrumph: If you are searching for "foo" in the contents of a file then grep -r "foo" *...
[19:27] <erUSUL> Jon-: i.e you can run this in a terminal « hi="Hello World!!!" ; echo $hi »
[19:27] <cabbrick1243> Does X driver 173 support the Nvidia GeForce 6x series?
[19:27] <Debjit> harrumph: -r is for recursive search
[19:27] <Polydwarf> Vigo : I wouldn't think those would be useful, when it's a speed problem one-way?
[19:27] <Polydwarf> Vigo : I'll give them a shot, though.
[19:27] <harrumph> Debjit: so for the system: grep -r "foo" /    rigth?
[19:28] <Jon-> erUSUL: For a port value do i need to enclose it in single quotes?
[19:28] <erUSUL> Jon-: there is no need but i wouldn't hurt
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> roberto_:  perhaps make a bash script that gets called that then launches your other script. Ive no idea on any ruby codeing. Ive only done my nautilus scripts in bash.
[19:28] <roberto_> Dr_Willis: I'm telling you, it works from the commandline
[19:28] <Debjit> harrumph: what do you want to search for?
[19:28] <Vigo> Polydwarf: I was just suggesting them as they might show you where the fail is.
[19:28] <roberto_> Dr_Willis: try it yourself
[19:28] <harrumph> Debjit: the string "foo" anywhere on the syste
[19:28] <JordanGbob> I've got a problem with GDM, could anybody help me?
[19:29] <Dr_Willis> roberto_:  So make a bash script that explitly calls it from the commabnd line.. its possible nautilus is using sh instead of bash so that may be the issue.
[19:29] <harrumph> Debjit: meaning in a file anywhere on the system
[19:29] <PeterDrop> how i know what audio sistem iam using? ( alsa u other ...)
[19:29] <Debjit> harrumph: in the contents of a file or the name?
[19:29] <rocket16> I downloaded and installed Chrome. It is great, but in System Monitor, I see 5 chromes running, and total, they consume more than 50 MB menory, :(
[19:29] <harrumph> Debjit: in the contents of a file
[19:29] <rocket16> * memory
[19:29] <roberto_> Dr_Willis: cool, I'll try that, thanks
[19:29] <erUSUL> rocket16: wonders of the one process per tab chrome model
[19:29] <Debjit> harrumph: grep -r "foo" /
[19:29] <cabbrick1243> rocket16: Chrome Runs each tab in a separate process
[19:30] <edlik> please help...I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 and now have no gui, monitor shuts down after splash screen finishes. I have command line when I press Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6
[19:30] <GeekSquid> rocket16: better than Firefox, consuming 120Megs on my system
[19:30] <rocket16> Oh, thanks cabbrick1243 and erUSUL
[19:30] <Jon-> erUSUL: Still using default port (6600) instead of specified port. I have set line "MPD_PORT='myport'" in ~/.bashrc and opened a new terminal.
[19:30] <harrumph> Debjit: okay.  but for some reason it hangs on /lib/udev/devices/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state
[19:30] <Jon-> erUSUL: Which is specified in the mpc man page as being checked before-hand.
[19:30] <erUSUL> Jon-: drop the '' just in case
[19:31] <Jon-> erUSUL: no luck
[19:31] <viejotren> hi i have a question about a broadcom driver in ubuntu karmic koala
[19:31] <minimec> edlik: What card?
[19:31] <kahraman> germns here?
[19:31] <Debjit> harrumph: it is better if you make the search a bit specific
[19:31] <viejotren> i can't connect to the access point
[19:31] <Polydwarf> ugh.. and now write performance seems to be up.. Does anyone know if windows (server 2008 specifically) does something funky when it connects to shares for the first time?  Indexing the remote share, maybe?
[19:31] <kahraman> germans here?
[19:31] <jozefk> my ubuntu 10.04 32bit can't mount anything anymore
[19:31] <GeekSquid> !de | kahraman
[19:31] <erUSUL> Jon-: make sure the var is set . run « echo $MPD_PORT »
[19:31] <rocket16> GeekSquid: Really? I think several Add-Ons are there, then it might consume more. I too faced 100 MB requirement, but then disabled add-ons, and it took only 40 MB
[19:31] <Debjit> harrumph: also try to exclude some system directories
[19:32] <jozefk> i mean mount from Nautilus
[19:32] <viejotren> the card is the BCM4312
[19:32] <harrumph> Debjit:  ok thx
[19:32] <JordanGbob> no ideas?
[19:32] <Debjit> harrumph: please see the manual page for grep
[19:32] <Jon-> erUSUL: Tried that already, it works
[19:32] <viejotren> i can't connect to the access point
[19:32] <jozefk> I can mount devices in terminal as root, actually with sudo mount...
[19:32] <viejotren> the error is the next:
[19:32] <erUSUL> Jon-: then looks like a mpc bug ?
[19:32] <viejotren> Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
[19:32] <viejotren>     SET failed on device eth2 ; Invalid argument.
[19:32] <edlik> minimec: can you tell me the command line to check my card?
[19:32] <duffydack> !swap > duffydack
[19:32] <GeekSquid> rocket16: mind you I have several firefox windows and lots of tabs open on more that one virtual desktop
[19:32] <jozefk> anybody experience something like that?
[19:32] <Jon-> erUSUL: I know it works because if I manually specify port and host with command line options, it works. I'd rather avoid this.
[19:32] <Addle> How to install internet in Linux mint 8 Helena? Who knows?
[19:33] <minimec> edlik: lspci | grep VGA
[19:33] <KyberProtagonist> Hi
[19:33] <rocket16> GeekSquid: Oh, :D
[19:33] <GeekSquid> Addle: Linux Mint is not supported here
[19:33] <GeekSquid> !mint | Addle
[19:33] <erUSUL> Jon-: maybe it does not use MPD_PORT if MPD_HOST is undefined ?
[19:33] <KyberProtagonist> Where does Ubuntu mount flesh-drives or memory-cards?
[19:33] <GeekSquid> !mintsupport | Addle
[19:33] <erUSUL> Jon-: define both

[19:33] <Urda|Home> Question! Where is the Ubuntu One icon for 10.04 located???
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> Addle:  Plus your question is vague

[19:34] <impactto> ubuntubr
[19:34] <viejotren> i can iwlist
[19:34] <Polemus1> when i sudo install sommin? how do i gain access to the app?
[19:34] <Jon-> erUSUL: Good idea, brb
[19:34] <impactto> connect ubuntubr
[19:34] <impactto> hi
[19:34] <viejotren> but i can't connect in some access point?
[19:34] <frxstrem> how can I find out what devices are connected to a local network?
[19:34] <Urda|Home> GeekSquid: No, the ICON, I'm trying to find the icon file to use it
[19:34] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  it addes itself to the menus/paths. theres nothing special to 'access the app'
[19:34] <R3cur51v3> Polemus1, type the name of the command
[19:34] <impactto> someone help me?:
[19:34] <KyberProtagonist> erUSUL: and what kind of names will they get?
[19:34] <R3cur51v3> Polemus1, or look it up in the menu system
[19:34] <|corpse|> minimec: Is it possible to use ATI CCC without flgrx
[19:34] <Debjit> Urda|Home: click on your usename in the top panel, its right at the bottom
[19:35] <CloudMonkee> how can i fix the crashing of the window managing -- the whole top black rectangle with the mini/maximize and close buttons has dissapeared. When I open a program, the box is always missing one.
[19:35] <Urda|Home> Debjit: No I'm looking for the .png Icon file
[19:35] <GeekSquid> Urda|Home: /usr/share/icons somewhere
[19:35] <R3cur51v3> |corpse|, there are open source drivers for all cards
[19:35] <Jon-> erUSUL: no diece.
[19:35] <Jon-> erUSUL: dice*
[19:35] <jozefk> is it possible this happens coz we don't have HAL anymore?
[19:35] <erUSUL> KyberProtagonist: it depends either a generic name (disk; disk1 etc ...) or one based in the filesystem label
[19:35] <Urda|Home> GeekSquid: ok I'll check there agin
[19:35] <Polemus1> i just did a : sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i lightscribe-<IP_ADDRESS>-linux-2.6-intel.deb
[19:35] <R3cur51v3> |corpse|, some suck though
[19:35] <Debjit> Urda|Home: or System -> Preferences -> Ubuntu One
[19:35] <|corpse|> minimec: I mean the catalyst control
[19:35] <minimec> |corpse|: no! You should have uninstalled it, as it is one of these fglrx packages ;)
[19:35] <Polemus1> now i have no idea where to find it... it's nowhere under any menu
[19:35] <erUSUL> Jon-: then dunno; sounds like a bug. report it
[19:35] <Urda|Home> Debjit: The icon file
[19:35] <Urda|Home> ...
[19:35] <Jon-> erUSUL: how
[19:35] <romeus> I recently performed a fresh install of Lucid on my T60 (R300), I tried the LiveCD and all seemed to work fine. At first my video wasn't working at all, and ubuntu would boot to command line only. I've used this fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/413259/comments/30 and startx now works from the command line. However, there's video corruption (lines of static across the screen), my sound doesn't work and my
[19:35] <romeus> wifi doesn't work.
[19:35] <erUSUL> Jon-: or use the command line options
[19:35] <delemi> kyberprotagonist my drives automatically mount in /media
[19:35] <|corpse|> minimec: yeah thats what i thought, i had to reformat after the last attempt so now im on a fresh install
[19:36] <viejotren> is this line ok? iwconfig eth2 essid "mywireless" key s:linuxrocks22
[19:36] <CloudMonkee> how can i fix the crashing of the window managing -- the whole top black rectangle with the mini/maximize and close buttons has dissapeared. When I open a program, the box is always missing one.
[19:36] <viejotren> is that ok?
[19:36] <viejotren> the wpa2 key is in the correct formar?
[19:36] <erUSUL> Jon-: you can in bashrc define and alias like this. mpc='mpc --first-option --other-option'
[19:36] <airtonix> Polemus1, what other methods have you used to find the program binary ?
[19:36] <|corpse|> minimec: so far everything seems to be working good, what screwed me last time was i installed ati catalyst control right away
[19:36] <minimec> |corpse|: Ok. Do you have compiz working?
[19:36] <erUSUL> Jon-: and use just mpc in cli. seems like a good compromise
[19:36] <moro> on bootup all I get is a terminal login.......I log in and NO gui........... I type in startx...........I get my desktop...WHY doesnt it go to startx right away? Any help on this?
[19:36] <KyberProtagonist> erUSUL: Well, I'm writting a Java-application. And I'm wondering: if I get a list of all files and folders from /media, what kind of names will I have in my array?
[19:36] <Polemus1> i did a wget to download it
[19:36] <minimec> |corpse|: Exactly ;)
[19:37] <erUSUL> Jon-: for the bug do. « ubuntu-bug mpc »
[19:37] <Jon-> erUSUL: I plan on making shortcuts with compizconfig or xbindkeys. Do these use the aliases in .bashrc as well?
[19:37] <Polemus1> airtonix: i did a wget to download it
[19:37] <erUSUL> Jon-: nope... you can do a onleliner script
[19:37] <|corpse|> minimec: yep, compiz is working. Is there a good way to test 3d capabilitys? other then gears
[19:37] <airtonix> Polemus1, ok after you installed it did you try using which or locate ?
[19:37] <KyberProtagonist> erUSUL: can u give an example?
[19:37] <delemi> minimec did you run the system testing to see if the system will run compiz
[19:37] <cabbrick1243> Maco: Changed the Nvidia driver back from most recent to the 173 version. will see how that goes
[19:37] <Six6siX> is there an easy way of transferring all files in sub-folders with matching extension into the root folder?
[19:37] <maco> cabbrick1243: kk
[19:37] <minimec> delemi: ?
[19:37] <Polemus1> airtonix: nope... no idea how to use which / locate
[19:38] <Jon-> erUSUL: ?
[19:38] <airtonix> Polemus1, locate lightscribe
[19:38] <jrib> Six6siX: sure... use find or a glob (hint: **/*.ext)

[19:40] <leleobhz> I have created a encrypted pendrive using karmic and now with lucid the automounting (asking password automatically) dont work. Someone know what can i do?
[19:40] <erUSUL> Jon-: make it esecutable « chmod +x textfile » ; place it in /usr/local/bin/ « sudo cp textfile /usr/local/bin/ »
[19:40] <erUSUL> Jon-: and you can use "textfile" as a command
[19:40] <ernie_> Does anyone know where the evolution folder is in 10.04? I have the .evolution from 9.04 and I just want to replace the folder
[19:40] <minimec> delemi: I use e17... I was helping other people.
[19:40] <airtonix> Polemus1, for the record that tab shows where it intends to install its files not where the files currently are... (just so your not confused if you look at that tab for a program you've yet to install )
[19:40] <jrib> ernie_: no idea.  Check ~/.config/ and ~/.gnome2/
[19:40] <frxstrem> is there a way to see what devices are connected to a network?
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  the lightscribe homepage also had some linux apps  and templates  last i checked.
[19:41] <GeekSquid> ernie_: in your home folder, it is hidden Ctrl-H to unhide/hide
[19:41] <ernie_> jrib, thanks, I'll give it a shot
[19:41] <Jon-> erUSUL: can I provide additional command line arguments to it?
[19:41] <delemi> minimec My mistake I came into the chat a little late
[19:41] <Dr_Willis> frxstrem:  you cound 'nmap' to scan the network.
[19:41] <Polemus1> airtonix: i feel like an idiot :-D can't find anything...
[19:41] <minimec> delemi: ;)
[19:41] <Debjit> can anyone tell me why the netspeed applet stops updating for few mins
[19:41] <frxstrem> Dr_Willis: okay, thanks :)
[19:41] <nickkontos> hello guys, i live in a foresaken place called greece, and all I want in my life is 10-20 shinny ubuntu stickers for my machines :/ so far the solutions I found are way too expensive (50euros for 100 stickers - including transport) any sugestions?
[19:41] <ernie_> GeekSquid, I couldn't find it in there. I did unhide the files and folders
[19:41] <delemi> minimec how do you like E17?
[19:41] <Polemus1> Dr_Willis: that's where i got it from... i did wget to download... then i installed it... now i am clueless
[19:41] <abhijain> happy mothers day to all of you
[19:41] <erUSUL> Jon-: afaics yes
[19:42] <erUSUL> Jon-: let me check
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1: if you log out/back in it may appear in the menus. Ive not used the stuff in ages
[19:42] <GeekSquid> nickkontos: buy some avery labels, make them yourself
[19:42] <cabbrick1243> maco: nope didn't work... It is very hard to find documentation on that to
[19:42] <airtonix> Polemus1, can't find the deb file ? you used wget right? so the deal with wget is that it dumps files you ask it to get in the current working directory. so assuming you still have the terminal window open that you used and haven't changed directory then that will indicate where it is
[19:42] <Nub> I have a portable hard drive NTFS connected via usb.  I am trying to copy 30GB of files to it.  Four times I have tried, and after copy about 10GB or so, the drive suddenly unmounts incorrectly...
[19:42] <VCoolio> delemi: it's awesome, very light, very good; takes some investigating at start to compile but totally worth it
[19:42] <minimec> delemi: I love it for years. I am using it in two dual screen computer setups. It is a the perfect solution for a dual screen setup.
[19:42] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, is lightscribe a daemon or user app ?
[19:43] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, do you know how to fix flash with visual effects enabled for browsing online with flash apps(for some reason they don't work or respond right).
[19:43] <minimec> airtonix: User app. there are to apps to burn lightscripe cd's
[19:43] <donaldo> how to enable surround toshiba laptop?
[19:43] <Dr_Willis> airtonix:  last i used it. its a user app. but there was 2 packages that had to be installed.. and i think there was an advanced labler and a basic labaler.
[19:43] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  ive no problems with them here.
[19:43] <erUSUL> Jon-: afaics yes
[19:43] <Nub> I have a portable hard drive NTFS connected via usb.  I am trying to copy 30GB of files to it.  Four times I have tried, and after copy about 10GB or so, the drive suddenly unmounts incorrectly...

[19:44] <Ademan> anyone know how I can change a pdf to monochrome so that I can print it on my laser printer? (otherwise it stipples things to achieve greyscale)
[19:44] <airtonix> Polemus1, once you find the deb file you can use gdebi to inspect its install payload manifest
[19:44] <webroasters> hey guys, quick question. Is there a ubuntu server irc?
[19:44] <Polemus1>  airtonix: i found the deb file and used gdebi... but i don't know what i am looking for :)
[19:45] <delemi> vcoolio: minimec: I burned it to a disk a few days ago and have it booted to a 64bit dual 3.8 xeon system at work and it reminds me of OSX. I was planning to put it on my laptop when my new hd comes for my laptop
[19:45] <airtonix> Polemus1, the included tab, third one
[19:45] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LightScribe
[19:45] <Debjit> Nub: Have you tried dmesg to get the error, that can be helpful
[19:45] <Nub> do i do that in a terminal?
[19:46] <Debjit> Nub: ya
[19:46] <airtonix> Polemus1, look for an entry that is something like : /usr/bin/blah/blah
[19:46] <VCoolio> delemi: are you still talking about e17? maybe you mean some distro with it and a mac-theme with it?
[19:46] <Debjit> Nub: dmesg | tail -50
[19:46] <Dunkan> hello kitty
[19:46] <Polemus1> airtonix: i am looking at the "included files".... but i don't know what i have to look for to open the app :) ... i kis you not... i am very new to ubuntu
[19:46] <delemi> vcoolio: yes I was talking about e17.
[19:46] <killergame82> LOL
[19:46] <danielbw> i need help with the e1000 driver going down unexpectedly. Has anyone else experienced the problem of the e1000 driver detecting the link as down and will not come up until a reboot?  Even unloading and loading the e1000 module does not work
[19:46] <donaldo> how to enable surround toshiba laptop?
[19:47] <killergame82> Des français
[19:47] <danielbw> come on, I have been asking for help since last night!
[19:47] <cabbrick1243> Still need help reading TTY (Virtual Console)  No longer Little dots thanks to Dr_Willis, but it is now just colorful squares where the text should be, mirrored on the screen
[19:47] <Nub> not sure what i am looking at
[19:47] <Jon-> erUSUL: FYI: further command line args do not work.
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  once ya install the proper 3 packagtes - the command is '4L-gui'
[19:47] <airtonix> Dr_Willis, hooray for obscure commands
[19:47] <Jon-> erUSUL: I can just specify the port argument manually everytime, it's just annoying.
[19:47] <VCoolio> delemi: ok, well, the default theme is black and white (very cool), but I guess you mean the dock then in some screenshots (which is itask-ng btw and doesn't come with e17 by default); but definitely give it a shot
[19:47] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, umm, if you have visual effects enabled, go to www.youtube.com and try to manipulate some videos with the buttons. The flash doesn't work correctly with visual effects enabled
[19:48] <minimec> delemi: It is definitly worth a try. I don't use the ecomorph compiz version. Just clean good e17 ;)
[19:48] <Debjit> Nub: look for the device name of the NTFS volume
[19:48] <Debjit> Nub: and the whatever associated with it
[19:48] <Nub> Debjit: not sure what I am looking at
[19:48] <Dr_Willis> CloudMonkee:  the 'buttons' problem depends on a lot of other things it seems.  compiz somehow shows a Bug thats in flash.  theres several fix's out on the net.
[19:48] <Nub> Oh, ok
[19:49] <delemi> I will play with it in a few days. My laptop hd has head knocking.
[19:49] <Polemus1> Dr_Willis: thanx... i did all the steps.. i also installed lacie... however, lacie doen't support text... only images... so i then installed an app from lightscribe's website (whick is a simple labeling tool)... now i don't know how to access that tool

[19:50] <luketheduke> hello, my root partition doesn't get a symlink in /dev/disk/by-uuid. blkid doesn't show it either. restarting udev or doing partprobe doesn't do anything. I had to change the grub entry to use the /dev/sdc1 device that is my root directly... anybody know why that could be?
[19:50] <CloudMonkee> dr_willis, how would you point me into the direction of one?
[19:50] <delemi> minimec: what kernal is e17 running?
[19:50] <danielbw> How can I get someone to help me with my problem? Is my description too vague?

[19:51] <infid> is there a linux command to tell me what UTC offset i am? 'date --utc' just shows what my current date/time is in utc format but not the offset

[19:54] <minimec> tech-mike: Ok. I am not really the skype user, but it should then show up in the video settings.
[19:54] <delemi> vcoolio: are there video card requirements?
[19:55] <barf00> boch - I'm trying to set shared memory up, it used to work fine but after a reboot it is giving me this error
[19:55] <tech-mike> minimec:  it does but doesnt start correctly
[19:55] <VCoolio> delemi: not sure, don't think so, it works with my nvidia card and driver

[19:55] <alket> How to make empathy open new converstions in bottom panel not in that green envelope at top ?
[19:55] <minimec> tech-mike: I wouöd first check gstreamer-properties, the video v4l2 section, and test the device.
[19:55] <VCoolio> delemi: unless you go ecomorph, that requires compositing and glx or what is it
[19:55] <boch_> barf00, sorry i have no idea then, try with sysctl: man sysctl
[19:56] <qoqo> All the softwares which is on list of playonlinux works %100 (if ubuntu does not have any problem)?
[19:56] <w3l54666> they all say linux foundation root hub in lsusb
[19:56] <VCoolio> emghazal: right click and delete (isn't it the indicator-applet for gnome-panel?)
[19:56] <Dr_Willis> qoqo:  i would be suprised if they all work 100% :)
[19:56] <tech-mike> minimec:  testing through gstreamer is showing fine
[19:56] <delemi> vcoolio: thanks I will look into it and play with it on monday
[19:56] <infid> alket: my guess is to go into empathy's preferences and uncheck 'show incoming messages in the messaging menu' but i'm not sure
[19:56] <minimec> delemi: VCoolio Probalby as VCoolio I tell you. Try e17 without ecomorph first. ;)
[19:56] <airtonix> w3l54666, unplug the wifi device and put it back in again the run lsusb again.
[19:56] <qoqo> Dr_Willis: but they have all the scripts inside ? why they doe not work ?
[19:57] <VCoolio> delemi: ecomorph is ok, but it's going to be deprecated in favor of the comp module, but that one isn't as configurable as ecomorph yet
[19:57] <tech-mike> minimec:  using input v4l2
[19:57] <alket> infid, that still opens in top panel like envelope but with another look
[19:57] <airtonix> w3l54666, also try blowing on the connector to remove dust
[19:57] <tech-mike> minimec:  should i try switching to v4l 1?
[19:57] <distant_voice> ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help?
[19:57] <emghazal> VCoolio: That removes the whole indicator applet, including power, bluetooth, and sound.
[19:57] <minimec> tech-mike: Skype doesn't use the gstreamer framework I think. So it is probably skype related.
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> qoqo:  with wine. theres never a guarentee. :)
[19:57] <bdi> i am trying to use sshfs to mount a remote dir to /media/IMM, but i get this error: fusermount: user has no write access to mountpoint /media/IMM. I think i have to use chmod on /media/IMM but im not sure. Any ideas?
[19:57] <w3l54666> airtonix

[19:57] <qoqo> Dr_Willis: ok. thank you :)
[19:58] <ubuntu472> is there a way to downgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to 9.10 without personal files being deleted??

[19:58] <delemi> minimec: thanks for the advise, I work for cell one of east texas and we run a lot of *nix servers. Always fun to learn something new.
[19:58] <VCoolio> emghazal: sorry, don't use it; two options: 1. check evolution preferences; 2. check gconf-editor, apps > indicator-applet for settings
[19:58] <w3l54666> exclamation mark
[19:58] <airtonix> w3l54666, left click it.
[19:59] <minimec> delemi: Linux is fun, right ;)

[19:59] <frxstrem> does someone know what the / in some IP addresses mean?
[19:59] <emghazal> VCoolio: I removed evolution altogether from my computer. I'll try gconf-editor.
[19:59] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  you may not need that step. Thats for 64bit systems
[19:59] <delemi> minimec: makes me use my brain. makes me remeber all the programing classes I had.
[19:59] <VCoolio> brontosaurusrex: go to page 272, then ctrl+shift+home?
[19:59] <distant_voice> ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help?
[19:59] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  and the guide may be out of date with  the newer releases of ubuntu

[20:00] <distant_voice> brontosaurusrex: go to the beginning of your document and put the cursor in front of the first word, hold shift, scroll to page 272 and put the cursor behind the last word
[20:00] <brontosaurusrex> VCoolio: wow, lol, now how would i select pages from 50 -> 272 ?
[20:01] <ubuntu472> unable to run ubuntu 10.04 on my present system so need to downgrade..is it possible?

[20:01] <mateusz> Well it is possible
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  i  think i skipped that step. but i did have to copy /lib/lightsc*  (liblightscribe.so and liblightscribe.so.1 ) to /usr/lib32
[20:01] <jrib> webroasters: you're in it !
[20:01] <webroasters> i thought this was the normal one
[20:01] <guy_> I have accidently rm'ed my /var/cache and now X just freezes (can't move mouse or keyboard) upon startup, I'm irc'ing from terminal, anyone got a clue how to fix this ?
[20:01] <jrib> webroasters: (there's also #ubuntu-server, but this one works too)
[20:01] <VCoolio> brontosaurusrex: not sure, page-up helps to select; or delete (temporarily) the part before or after what you need, so you can use home or end to select
[20:01] <webroasters> i know theres an off topic
[20:01] <webroasters> ok thanks jrib
[20:01] <eFever|Newklear> hi friend of mine has a problem with his wlan card can someone help :) (have the syslog etc)

[20:03] <litropy> Hi, peeps. I want to set up an audio server on my 10.04 powered netbook so that ANY audio it plays (as in the audio that would go to the speakers) instead is routed to a sound server that outputs a stream. The purpose is so that I can open this stream using another machine that's hooked up to my wall-mounted speakers. Any ideas as to the best way to do this?
[20:03] <bdi> i am trying to use sshfs to mount a remote dir to /media/IMM, but i get this error: fusermount: user has no write access to mountpoint /media/IMM. I think i have to use chmod on /media/IMM but im not sure. Any ideas?
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:   $ /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler
[20:03] <ubuntu472> jrib but i do not want my files like songs and movies and photographs to be delted..what should i follow now?? i tried to backup the files from my live cd but its not possible.some encryption :( please help
[20:03] <crankharder> is there any way to get an ubuntu ISO onto a DVD (because i dont have any blank CDs) so that it'll boot?
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  or the other version   4L-gui
[20:03] <Dr_Willis> crankharder:  ive heard you can burn them to dvd and they will work.. but ive heard of otehrs saying that dont work...
[20:04] <Thorax> does anyone have IR working properly on ubuntu 10.04?
[20:04] <mateusz> crankharder: yes it will work
[20:04] <Dr_Willis> crankharder:  i make bootable flash drives now a days :)
[20:04] <ubuntu_> hello i am new to ubuntu and i would really like to install 10.04 but i cant get my printer to work, could someone help me configure it correctly please
[20:04] <jrib> ubuntu472: what happens when you try to boot 10.04?
[20:04] <minimec> Polemus1: Dr_Willis You probably need sudo rights to run that... Both lightscripe programms need sudo rights or an adapted groups file.
[20:04] <mateusz> Just burn the ISO just like you would on a CD
[20:04] <electhor> crankharder: As long as it is burned as an image, it should not matter if it is a dvd or cd
[20:04] <crankharder> Dr_Willis: looks like the doc for that is out of date for 10.4: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[20:04] <Jordan_U> litropy: In Ubuntu everything is already routed through the pulseaudio sound server, which can transfer streams through the network.

[20:04] <Dr_Willis> minimec:  i dident need them just now.   the docs mention using sudo.. but THEN they also say 'These packages install programs as setuid root, which means that they run with full system privileges and could be a security risk. '
[20:04] <distant_voice> ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help?
[20:05] <litropy> Jordan_U: thank you, now joining #pulseaudio
[20:05] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  the $ is not part of the command. thats the bash prompt
[20:05] <MightyTweek> Hey all, I've just upgraded to 10.04 and when I turn on visual effects the title bars disappear from all my windows. I'm using a laptop with Intel 945GM integrated graphics if that helps
[20:05] <Dr_Willis> minimec:  so needing sudo to run suid programs.. seems.. weird.
[20:05] <minimec> Dr_Willis: That is possibl, as this is old and never maintained software. Both applications are very basic.
[20:05] <distant_voice> mightytweek: do you have the compiz configuration thingy installed?
[20:05] <TommyThaGun> is there a way to control the volume of sound in GDM?
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> minimec:  yep. I dont even have a LS drive in this box any more.
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> LS - neat idea.. that was a pain to use.
[20:06] <MightyTweek> distant_voice, how would I check?
[20:06] <Polemus1> Dr_Willis: oh :-D ...... now i get ..... /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler: error while loading shared libraries: liblightscribe.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  that guide mentions needing to do a 'sudo ldconfig'
[20:07] <TommyThaGun> nevermind, I at least figured out how to turn off the sound that is played
[20:07] <can__> how can i do "System Settings->Advanced->Service Manager and turning off "Detecting RANDR (monitor) changes"" via console?

[20:07] <slashfoo> guys I'm presenting the same issue as the OP of the thread at http://goo.gl/vmKK is that caused ONLY by corrupted/bad filesystems?
[20:08] <awakeash> Hmmmm  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/LswCv4TU
[20:08] <minimec> Dr_Willis: Polemus1 I have one of these lightscribe drives and sometimes use it. The results are really ok, but the 'sudo' problem was also surprising for me.
[20:09] <TheAwesomeGuy> hey
[20:09] <airtonix> w3l54666, still doesnt show up in the tray icon ?
[20:09] <Polemus1> Dr_Willis: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs worked for me !!!!!
[20:09] <TheAwesomeGuy> cannot open `/dev/tty': No such device or address
[20:09] <minimec> Polemus1: UNfortunately my 'lightscribe' computer is still on jaunty, as it is my wirking horse... ;)
[20:09] <w3l54666> nope
[20:09] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  yep - it pays to follow the guide. :)
[20:09] <TheAwesomeGuy> im getting this error when running gpg from php with shell_exec()

[20:10] <emghazal> I can't find a way to remove the evolution envelope icon (http://imagebin.org/96127). I uninstalled Evolution altogether. I can't remove the indicator applet because I want the sound, bluetooth, and power icons. And I tried looking at gconf-editor but found nothing. Any ideas?
[20:11] <airtonix> w3l54666, ok nicknamed lucid it is. can you check for hardware drivers please > system menu > admin > hardware drivers
[20:11] <Jon-> Anyone with experiance setting up mpd and mpc? I wanted to revert to the default port and address, so I did an apt-get autoremove --purge mpd mpc && sudo apt-get install mpc mpd   the issue is: mpc doesn't see mpd. gmpc sees it no problem. Help?
[20:11] <distant_voice> ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help?
[20:11] <w3l54666> i aint on the net on it
[20:11] <w3l54666> does it matter?

[20:15] <cabbrick1243> Ok i'm back a again and i still haven't been able to find to much help on this isssue.  When Ubuntu Lucid 64 bit boots, the screen that should say ubuntu has discoloration (major) Also when exiting to TTY (Virtual Console) the text on it is replaced by multicolored blocks in the place of the text.  I really need some help with this.
[20:16] <emghazal> MightyTweek: So there is no way to remove it? It's bad enough indicator-applet has more spacing than Notification Area and looks inconsistent. Now I'll also have to live with a useless icon there? :(
[20:16] <wk_exeon> how do i install a .inf
[20:17] <winXPuser> where did you get it?

[20:17] <wk_exeon> it is
[20:18] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  part 1 sounds like a typical Plymouth issue. Its using a low-color driver for the system because of your video card.
[20:18] <onetinsoldier> distant_voice: i probably won't be able to help. but what kind of port is the cdrom drive on? parallel? or sata?
[20:18] <andrikos1996> Hallo

[20:18] <andrikos1996> Hallo Zolo

[20:19] <newuserD> the intel baised one?
[20:19] <steelbox> I have parasites on my sound speakers, how can I suppress that plz?
[20:20] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Ok, should i try a reinstall of ubuntu? the card is an Nvidia Geforce 6150 se (or whatever the seconversion is)
[20:20] <newuserD> Is it not baised on intel....
[20:20] <Dr_Willis> steelbox:  You have small insects on yoru speakers?
[20:20] <frxstrem> winXPuser: I meant installing with APT, not from source
[20:20] <onetinsoldier> Dr_Willis: i was gonna say..... bug spray, lol
[20:20] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  i doubt if that will matter.  some nvidia cards have some issues with Plymouth. thats just how it is.
[20:20] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  You are using the  nvidia drivers from the repos?
[20:20] <cabbrick1243> ok thanks
[20:21] <cabbrick1243> yes
[20:21] <wk_exeon> it intel hdmi driver
[20:21] <Polemus1> how can i add a shortcut in the menu to: /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler
[20:21] <steelbox> I have parasites on my sound speakers, how can I suppress that plz?
[20:21] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  with the alacarte menu editor ..
[20:21] <newuserD> thank you Dr_willis :D
[20:21] <Dr_Willis> steelbox:  use bug spray? or clarify the question.
[20:22] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Yes i was, i should probably look on their site, but the one problem i've hear with that is the kernel updates will screw it up later on
[20:22] <steelbox> bug spray?
[20:22] <winXPuser> frxstrem, maybe sudo apt-get install php
[20:22] <Polemus1> Dr_Willis: I supose i need to install it.. or does it come out the box with lucid?
[20:22] <Dr_Willis> steelbox:  we have NO IDEA what you mean by 'parasites'  - those are blood sucking insects.. last i looked..
[20:22] <newuserD> lol
[20:22] <onetinsoldier> steelbox: well.. parasite's are consdiered to be bugs, like insects
[20:22] <Dr_Willis> Polemus1:  no idea. try alt-f2 alacarte and find out
[20:23] <steelbox> Dr_Willis: lol okay
[20:23] <onetinsoldier> considered*
[20:23] <steelbox> sorry for my low english level
[20:23] <grspence__> does anyone have experience with mythtv.... i've got everything working perfect with the exception of mythweb.... i can view my recording etc as a list on there but whenever i click to view my video library i get a blank page.  any suggestions?
[20:23] <steelbox> I got some noise in my speakers
[20:23] <steelbox> it's periodic
[20:23] <gebUK> hi has anybody here managed to get nginx running with php on their machines? pls PM me
[20:23] <wk_exeon> how do i install a .inf
[20:24] <Dr_Willis> wk_exeon:  what are you trying to isntall anyway?
[20:24] <steelbox> and it happens even without playing any audio/video files
[20:24] <pun84> just got a power outage, now i get "The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present"
[20:24] <CogitoErgoSam> #bash isn't being responsive, so I'm gonna go OT real quick and ask once if anyone knows how to use sed -r to insert a tab in place of spaces...\t isn't doin it
[20:24] <alex2010> hello, I can't get X started with a GeForce Go 6100 on 10.04, though it worked fine in the live CD, and when I run startx too
[20:24] <Dr_Willis> steelbox:   you mean to say it makes a 'pop/crackle' every few min.. right befor a sound plays?
[20:24] <onetinsoldier> wk_exeon: perhaps with wine... but i doubt it. .inf file is pretty much an ms windows thing
[20:24] <wk_exeon> hdmi driver 4 intel
[20:24] <pun84> anyone ?
[20:25] <cabbrick1243> steelbox: go to system>preferences>sound , click on the hardware tab, and change the device profile to one  until you find one that works
[20:25] <steelbox> without playing audio files
[20:25] <Ower> hello pun84
[20:25] <Dr_Willis> CogitoErgoSam:  I would use 'tr' to remove tabs:tr -d '\011' <test.txt >out.txt
[20:25] <alex2010> it is driving me absolutely nuts because I know the card works, but GDM simply refuses to run it
[20:25] <zohar> hi, someone knows how to install nvidia-xconfig on ubuntu 9.1?  i want to create xorg.conf ?

[20:26] <Ower> you mount the disk first
[20:26] <cofee> how are you, man?
[20:26] <Dr_Willis> CogitoErgoSam:  you want to replace every 8 spaces in a row with a tab? or similer?
[20:26] <CogitoErgoSam> Dr_Willis:  I'll see if that control char they mention works though, thanks for the heads up.

[20:27] <wk_exeon> can i use ndis wrapper to install a inf
[20:27] <cofee> Arg.
[20:27] <CogitoErgoSam> Dr_Willis:  Writing an install script that lists a user's network interfaces via ifconfig, but it doesn't tab the columns out; uses spaces.  Was hoping to replace any repeated string of spaces with a single tab
[20:27] <cofee> you Ower?
[20:27] <Dr_Willis> CogitoErgoSam:  perhaps --> http://www.computing.net/answers/unix/replacing-a-character-with-a-tab/4966.html

[20:29] <CogitoErgoSam> Dr_Willis:  Thanks a bunch, I appreciate it.  G'night!
[20:29] <robbrit> zohar_: use System->Administration->Hardware Drivers
[20:30] <robbrit> zohar_: you can install the nvidia driver there, it should come with nvidia-xconfig
[20:30] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  the gdm login screen?  thats tweakable a little bit
[20:30] <pun84> this is ridiculous i never had a problem unitl i upgraded to newest version
[20:30] <Ower> cofee?
[20:30] <pun84> now it breaks within 2weeks

[20:30] <cofee> we have definitely token the italian spirit for our culture
[20:30] <subone> Even with the latest ati proprietary video drivers, videos appear broken (sometimes half the picture seems to be one frame and the other half another frame). Its hardly noticeable but annoying if you do notice it. Anyone know of a way to sync this or something?
[20:30] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: yes the gdm screen. I don't like the purple background :p
[20:30] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  i got some bookmarks at http://delicious.com/dr_willis
[20:31] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  simple way.. find that image.. edit it... :)
[20:31] <cofee> yes Ower

[20:31] <Ower> how old are you?
[20:31] <cofee> 25
[20:31] <ChrisC_> Hi, is there a way to reset the wireless network from the command line.  Surely there must be a way to reset via command line.
[20:31] <zohar_> robbrit - u know what is "Hardware drivers" in hebrew ?
[20:32] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  yep. in /usr/share/backgrounds
[20:32] <cofee> Ower, do you know about this system, Ubuntu?
[20:32] <robbrit> zohar_: no idea, check on google translate
[20:32] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:   i set up grub2 and gdm  and my user to use the same wallpaper
[20:32] <robbrit> zohar_: it should have a picture of a computer chip next to it
[20:32] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Duh! thanks a lot.  Windows mods are like that sometimes to...
[20:32] <Ower> i 27
[20:33] <Ower> do you use backtrack for cracking wifi?
[20:33] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  theres other tools to tweak the gdm stuff.. but I just edit/change that ugly picture :) i hate how its the default
[20:33] <Samekh93> hello hello
[20:33] <Dr_Willis> !backtrack | Ower
[20:33] <steelbox> cabbrick1243: so my hardware tab is empty
[20:33] <cofee> great :D
[20:33] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Yea, they used to let you change it
[20:33] <cofee> im not user of wi-fi
[20:34] <Dr_Willis> cabbrick1243:  gdm1 vs gdm2.. its changeable still. theres just not a nice gui tool by default.. see the grub2setup tool in my links
[20:34] <miolands> can anyone help with getting write  privileges back for a usb drive
[20:34] <Ower> for me, ubuntu is a best distro

[20:35] <amontimur> hello, i am a newbie and require help. i just installed ubuntu, but to get my wlan working, i need to install specific drivers, which themselves require a subsystem called IEEE80211. i downloaded all required files but have no idea how to install them. please help!
[20:35] <cabbrick1243> steelbox: yea, i'm probably not the right person for this, but you do need to find your pulse audio driver for the device if it is registered there
[20:35] <cofee> it rocks. i very trust it tn
[20:35] <cofee> *in it
[20:35] <Ower> sorry for my english
[20:35] <roberto__> what does this mean (from package description): This is a dummy package depending on the library for the current default version of Ruby.
[20:35] <cofee> hah. me too
[20:35] <robbrit> roberto__: it just installs the latest version of ruby
[20:36] <Samekh93> Finally making the switch to Ubuntu this afternoon - just wanted a little advice. Is it 'alright' to use NTFS as my data partition in Linux? I want to switch to an official unix partition but all my data is NTFS.
[20:36] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Will do. I'm not to familiar with Ubuntu so.. ty
[20:36] <cofee> what version of ubuntu are you using?
[20:36] <steelbox> cabbrick1243: okay and how can I find it?
[20:36] <robbrit> roberto__: that way you can always go "sudo apt-get install ruby" to get the latest version
[20:36] <jrib> Samekh93: it's fine, you just don't get unix-style permissions
[20:36] <luketheduke> severnaya: I had the same problem a while ago. never found a fix
[20:36] <zohar_> robbrit - any other way to install it ? i cant find it
[20:36] <onetinsoldier> Samekh93: no. you will be using ext3 or ext4
[20:36] <luketheduke> whoops
[20:37] <Samekh93> jrib: can you clarify please?
[20:37] <cabbrick1243> steelbox: err, (embarrasement) i did find an article in the forums once on it. Try searching them for sound drivers
[20:37] <ChrisC_> Anyone?
[20:37] <robbrit> zohar_: try installing the nvidia-current package
[20:37] <Ower> now i installig vlc media player
[20:37] <roberto__> robbrit: I have ruby1.9.1 and I need libgtk2-ruby .. that description is in libgtk2-ruby .. but I don't see an explicit libgtk2-ruby1.9.1, only libgtk2-ruby1.8
[20:37] <zohar_> robbrit - in synaptic ?
[20:38] <jrib> !permissions > Samekh93
[20:38] <robbrit> zohar_: yep
[20:38] <meles> \join #ubuntuusers
[20:38] <cofee> your doing right. thats the best player ever
[20:38] <robbrit> roberto__: libgtk2-ruby might still work
[20:38] <cofee> hey, i got a question. does anibody know if is there a way to upgrade from ubuntu 8 to 9 ?
[20:38] <ChrisC_> How do I bring up the wlan0 to reconnect via command line?
[20:38] <frxstrem> how can I bypass Ubuntu's password changing rules?
[20:39] <Ower> my version is 8.04 but now i writing with backtrack 4
[20:39] <roberto__> robbrit: no, synaptic wants to install ruby1.8 if I do that
[20:39] <ubuntu_> can someone help me install lexmark 2300
[20:39] <ubuntu_> printer
[20:39] <cabbrick1243> steelbox: so sorry i'm not much help, as i have not to much with Ubuntu either
[20:39] <robbrit> roberto__: try installing it through rubygems then
[20:39] <Daskreech> Hello Having an issue with Xorg
[20:39] <roberto__> robbrit: I'm having trouble installing it from source -- it's not i ruby gems, believe it or not :)
[20:40] <winXPuser> !networking | amontimur,
[20:40] <Daskreech> starting up X makes my monitor flip to black
[20:40] <Leonopteryx> FUCK ME.  I scanned a document and this page is way too big when I view the pdf
[20:40] <steelbox> cabbrick1243: okay
[20:40] <lee_> hahahahahahahaha
[20:41] <cofee> it happens.
[20:41] <winXPuser> MichaelKohler: zoom - fit page width
[20:41] <cofee> hah
[20:41] <amontimur> !networking
[20:41] <Ower> i don't know
[20:41] <cabbrick1243> Dr_Willis: Should i remove plymouth altogether since it doesn't work on my video card you had a link to that on your site and i'm just curiosu
[20:41] <MichaelKohler> winXPuser: and how can I save this state? I need to send it to someone and it should be all the same size at his computer too
[20:42] <subone> Even with the latest ati proprietary video drivers, videos are tearing (sometimes half the picture seems to be one frame and the other half another frame). Its hardly noticeable but annoying if you do notice it. Anyone know of a way to sync this or something?
[20:42] <ChrisC_> Thanks.
[20:42] <luketheduke> subone: can you enable VSync somewhere?
[20:42] <luketheduke> never used it, so I can't tell you how to
[20:42] <Samekh93> jrib: so I couldn't run games off of it I imagine
[20:42] <zohar_> robbrit - is "Nvidia binary xorg driver" is the one to install ?
[20:43] <Ower> do you like 3d modelling?
[20:43] <jrib> Samekh93: correct
[20:43] <robbrit> zohar_: yep
[20:43] <amontimur> winXPuser, what do you mean?
[20:43] <visof> hello
[20:43] <luketheduke> hey zohar_, fancy meeting you here
[20:43] <Samekh93> jrib: goddammit
[20:43] <cabbrick1243> visof: hi
[20:43] <Oddbio> is using "netcat" a slow method of tansfering a file? I actually thought it was faster than other methods.  I ask because I recently wanted to send an 11.5 GB file using netcat and it took a few hours. Perhaps that is normal though, and it just seems like a long time because I've never sent a file that big before..  Also, The two computers are on the same network, so it's not across the internet.
[20:43] <Samekh93> jrib: any reliable way to convert an NTFS partition?
[20:43] <jrib> Samekh93: what kind of games were you considering?
[20:43] <visof> how can i group the photos in change background that change background automatically ?
[20:43] <Samekh93> jrib: just one, EVE Online
[20:43] <steaminc> yo whats up guys
[20:43] <visof> there is also some space photos
[20:44] <jrib> Samekh93: you want to run that through wine?  Or is that a native game?
[20:44] <cofee> wazzupppp
[20:44] <Samekh93> jrib: It will be through wine
[20:44] <frxstrem> how can you undo 'sudo passwd root'?
[20:44] <jrib> Samekh93: it's probably fine through wine
[20:44] <cabbrick1243> visof: use Desktop Drapes from the software manager
[20:44] <jrib> frxstrem: sudo passwd -l root
[20:44] <frxstrem> jrib: okay, thanks :)
[20:44] <Samekh93> jrib: I guess I could try it first...
[20:44] <SteamInc_> lol im looking at irc thoug h3 programs
[20:44] <Samekh93> jrib: thank you.
[20:45] <winXPuser> MichaelKohler, no, this state can't be saved, this is user's preference; in the very best case you can set it in adobe pdf printer properties (properties button next to printer name in print dialog)
[20:45] <jrib> Samekh93: there's no way to convert ntfs to ext* that I know of
