[18:14] <Dr_Willis> adminewb:  i dont see much point in having diffrent ubuntu builds installed on the same machine really. :) but whatever you want.. heh
[18:14] <PND> Is there another channel where I should go for having help (maybe this channel is too generic ?) ?
[18:14] <dury> PND: which ubuntu you are using
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> ward-: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com
[18:14] <PND> The very last one (Karmic)
[18:14] <arand> ward-: blueprints on launchpad, forum posts, and brainstorm.
[18:14] <ward-> ActionParsnip: its less the nan idea
[18:14] <dotblank> PND, this is the right channel
[18:15] <dury> PND: what about the computer hardware
[18:15] <adminewb> Dr_Willis, 32 bit and 64 bit are distinct and separate
[18:15] <grawity> PND: This is the right channel - but if no one knows, then posting at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ may help.
[18:15] <EntropyMonster> anything come up in the drivers window?
[18:15] <EntropyMonster> *hardware drivers
[18:15] <ward-> arand: ActionParsnip well its just a small suggestion to make computers with enabled nvidia drivers run "nvidia-settings --load-config-only" on startup
[18:15] <dotblank> sounds like a soundcard issue and maybe alsa related... #alsa should help but they expect you to read their website's faqs and such before asking
[18:16] <PND> grawity, dotblank, ok, thanks
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> ward-: yeah go log it on brainstorm and / or bug report
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> adminewb:  ive gone all 64bit now on all my machines.. i can only think of a few trivial issues ive had with 64bit.
[18:16] <adminewb> ikonia, 32 bit and 64 bit have separate /boot, which may not make the most sense
[18:16] <ikonia> adminewb: no - you will have a lot of problems with that
[18:16] <ward-> arand: ActionParsnip if this is not run then color correction is not laded, and possibly other stuff aswell
[18:16] <ward-> ActionParsnip: ok ill take a look
[18:16] <PND> dury, the computer hardware is doing fine, it's a chip on my motherboard, lspci says VIA Technologies, Inc. VT1708/A [Azalia HDAC]
[18:16] <adminewb> Dr_Willis, my lack of 64 bit wifi drivers would not qualify as trivial issues
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> ward-: i dont run it and my system is fine
[18:16] <jb0nd38372> thank you I did a sudo chown jb0nd38372 /media/Storage1 and returned to bash w/o any errors, and it seems i can write to the drive now.  will the change survive reboots or do I need to make it perminate?
[18:16] <khensthoth> PND: See if upgrading you sound driver solves anything. http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/ubuntu-karmic-upgrade-alsa-to-1021-from.html
[18:16] <lyeeth> grawity, http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/3679/blubber.jpg
[18:16] <arand> ward-: or just bug report requesting a feature, for wishlist-calssification
[18:16] <Threetimes> !pm | Balsaq
[18:16] <Threetimes> Hi, is there a christmas screensaver for ubuntu?
[18:16] <ward-> ActionParsnip: well did you change your color correction?
[18:17] <ikonia> jb0nd38372: it's already perminante
[18:17] <lyeeth> grawity, left is as it should be, right is as it is
[18:17] <PND> khensthoth, i'm trying, thanks.
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> ward-: no i havent
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> adminewb:  i run wires..
[18:17] <^workman^> adminewb: are you building heavy CPU based apps or something? if not, why not use a VM? for the different ARCH's?
[18:17] <grawity> lyeeth: I have a feeling that it is your terminal with UTF-8 disabled... Is it PuTTY?
[18:17] <ward-> ActionParsnip: how can the colorcorrection not be loaded if you did not change it...... its default.....
[18:17] <ikonia> Threetimes: may I pm you for a moment please ?
[18:17] <khensthoth> PND: And here're some really comprehensive sound solution/guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843012
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> adminewb:  then why bother with 64bit at all - what are you really gaining by having both?
[18:17] <lyeeth> grawity, its not the terminal, its the same when i log in at the machine
[18:17] <lyeeth> grawity, but yeah, its putty
[18:17] <PND> khensthoth, upgrade done, Should I reboot ?
[18:17] <ward-> ActionParsnip: if i change it, and then reboot the corrections are no longer present
[18:18] <jb0nd38372> ok good.. this is not as hard as I had thought.. my friends told me i wuold never get anywhere with linux.  Maybe i can prove them wrong.
[18:18] <Threetimes> ikonia: yes
[18:18] <ward-> ActionParsnip: for them to be loaded i need to run either "nvidia-settings --load-config-only" or without the flag
[18:18] <dury> PND: I guess your have to search the proper driver
[18:18] <khensthoth> PND: Yes
[18:18] <arand> ward-: that'd probably be best of as a bug report I think "This should be the default".
[18:18] <PND> dury, it used to work fine :/
[18:18] <adminewb> ^workman^, I haven't dug into qemu-kvm, looks too hard to set up
[18:18] <mielo> salve
[18:18] <ward-> ActionParsnip: not a lot of people use this thats probably how the little bug got in
[18:18] <PND> khensthoth, ok, be right back then.
[18:18] <dotblank> PND, oh...
[18:18] <^workman^> admineweb: try VirtualBox
[18:18] <ward-> arand: ok thanx
[18:18] <grawity> lyeeth: But still, try this... Ctrl+RightClick on the PuTTY window, choose "Change Settings". Go to Window --> Translation. Enter "UTF-8" as character set. Click Apply. Then run the 'ls' command again.
[18:18] <K|nG> Do works the Windows things like example PHONE drivers and anything other to ubuntu ?
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> ward-: sounds like the case to me, i'd log it
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> K|nG:  rephrase that question.. it dident make any sence.
[18:19] <dury> reboot it as khensthoth said
[18:19] <ward-> ActionParsnip: ok i will after my smoke, dunno my username and pass anymore... lol
[18:19] <dotblank> K|nG, ?
[18:19] <lyeeth> grawity, goddamn
[18:19] <lyeeth> grawity, i probably fixed it hours ago, i just never saw it :P
[18:19] <mielo> problemi con totem
[18:19] <adminewb> Dr_Willis, at some point another way of networking will become available
[18:19] <K|nG> Example i have a Samsung phone but the phone havent any Driver for Linux do that work and in linux ?
[18:19] <EntropyMonster> K|nG: look into WINE for running windows apps
[18:19] <lyeeth> grawity, thanks so much, ive been on this a week or so :(
[18:19] <GodfatherofEire> Any ideas why conky would interfere with displaying desktop icons (and other conky windows?
[18:20] <dotblank> K|nG, what is your objective with the phone?
[18:20] <K|nG> have any site or anything that help me :D
[18:20] <grawity> lyeeth: And even when you login locally, the GNOME Terminal has a "Character set" menu under Tools.
[18:20] <lyeeth> well
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> ward-: ask in #freenode for password resets
[18:20] <K|nG> To transfer file from phone or from PC to phone
[18:20] <lyeeth> grawity, its server, i dont have a gui :)
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> GodfatherofEire:  the conky web site/forums/faq detail the proper ways to launch conky to work with gnome.
[18:20] <dotblank> K|nG, is this a CDMA or GSM phone?
[18:20] <ward-> ActionParsnip: nono the other thing launchpad
[18:20] <mielo> scuate ce qulcuno che mi puo dare una mano

[18:20] <GodfatherofEire> Dr_Willis, what's the url?
[18:20] <mielo> o da poco istalato ubuntu
[18:20] <grawity> lyeeth: Ah. Same applies to the text-mode console though - UTF-8 mode and ANSIsomething mode.
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> GodfatherofEire:  in short. conky i belive needs to be delayed and launch after gnome loads
[18:20] <mielo> 5.1
[18:20] <adminewb> <Dr_Willis
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> GodfatherofEire:  no idea. im not google.
[18:20] <PND> thanks khensthoth, dury, it's working fine :)
[18:21] <trism> GodfatherofEire: http://conky.sourceforge.net/faq.html
[18:21] <K|nG> CDMA :D
[18:21] <khensthoth> PND: Problem solved?
[18:21] <PND> I have sound again, I hope it will stay.
[18:21] <usser> K|nG, no driver needed for file transfer
[18:21] <xander> im running ubuntu 8.04 and when i try to call someone via skype i get the error 'problem with audio playback' or 'problem with audio capture'
[18:21] <K|nG> Ahh Nice
[18:21] <K|nG> :D
[18:21] <PND> khensthoth, sounds like :p
[18:21] <binky> =O
[18:21] <khensthoth> PND: Cool.
[18:21] <GodfatherofEire> Dr_Willis, Ah, I just thought if you seemed to know what the problem was that you might have been familiar with it. My mistake.
[18:21] <binky> still not workin
[18:21] <adminewb> Dr_Willis, the 64 bit setup was intended to confirm that my hardware supports that
[18:21] <Threetimes> Hi, is there a christmas screensaver for ubuntu?
[18:21] <GodfatherofEire> trism: thanks
[18:21] <khensthoth> PND: Bookmark those two forum links I gave you. They are REALLY helpful.
[18:21] <dury> PND: thanks to khensthoth
[18:21] <usser> K|nG, it should be just detected as a mass storage device. also if it has bluetooth its even better
[18:21] <K|nG> For putty need to upgrade or the laste version have it integrated
[18:21] <K|nG> ?
[18:21] <trism> GodfatherofEire: actually the problem is conky likes to write to the root window and so does nautilus, so you need to give your conky windows their own windows in gnome instead of writing to the root window
[18:21] <dotblank> K|nG, What you do need however is a program to transfer over the serial line which is usually done in a program called bitpim
[18:21] <arand> ward-: however, if it's all done in the binary driver then it might have to be adressed at nvidia, but in this case I guess it could be packaged to do it.
[18:21] <binky> it like gets to the boot menu then freezes
[18:21] <PND> khensthoth, it's done :)
[18:22] <binky> when u press install
[18:22] <ikonia> Threetimes: no, not unless one is packaged with xscreensaver or gnome screensaver (which I don't remember seeing)
[18:22] <K|nG> Nice :D
[18:22] <GodfatherofEire> trism, ah, but would that display it as a frame or an actual window?
[18:22] <ward-> arand: nono lol, ubuntu can fix this easily afaik :)
[18:22] <ubuntu> hello
[18:22] <^workman^> adminewb: if you google your hardware and add linux support, you will get tons of info regarding your hardware, and how well it's supported under linux
[18:22] <d0wn> Shoot! I accidentally pressed ctrl-z while a process was running in terminal, and I got "[1] Stopped" How do I resume this?
[18:22] <ikonia> d0wn: "fg"
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> d0wn:  use the 'bg' or 'fg' command
[18:22] <d0wn> ikonia: thank you so much, hahaha
[18:22] <trism> GodfatherofEire: you can hide the window decorations so it will look just like it was writting to the root window, I forget the options though, it is all in the conky docs on their site (and the faq)
[18:22] <d0wn> Dr_Willis: Thanks :D

[18:23] <ikonia> RaptorQuest: tpdlp.org and ubuntu.com

[18:23] <dury> may I have support or could anyone drive me please to use yahoo messenging with videoconference
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> fcuk112:  those menu items are defined by some sub dirs in the users home. Not by the system settings.
[18:24] <jb0nd38372> This machine I installed ubuntu on has dual ati 4770 Vidcards in it, anyway, I have got the official ati drivers up and running with X.  Question is:  I see online about commands to enable crossfire in X.  Would I benifit from doing that or am I opening up myself for trouble?

[18:24] <adminewb> ^workman^, I suppose yes, but how to identify my hardware for purposes of a keyword search is not so obvious

[18:27] <ikonia> dury: sorry it's not good news
[18:27] <aeon-ltd> fabio_: i don't know how long you've used linux, but ati is hell for linux
[18:27] <usser> kaeser_, /etc/default/grub
[18:27] <xander> can anyone help me, when i try to call someone trough skype i get the error 'problem with audio playback', i run ubuntu 8.04.
[18:27] <dury> never mind
[18:27] <goldins> is there a way to reconfigure pam without editing the pam files?
[18:27] <fabio_> i know, that's what i've heard. just wanted to know if it has changed since ATI Open sourced
[18:27] <dotblank> aeon-ltd, some of the chips are open source and work quite well
[18:27] <usser> kaeser_, you can set default kernel there, but the actual config file is /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[18:27] <fabio_> but i want a Dell and Dell seems to be in bed with ATI
[18:27] <khensthoth> dury: PPA for adding that application https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa
[18:27] <dotblank> especially on laptops.. its like magic
[18:27] <kaeser_> usser, thks
[18:27] <usser> kaeser_, its not recommended that you edit grub.cfg directly
[18:28] <aeon-ltd> fabio_: isn't there a integrated intel option?
[18:28] <kaeser_> What should I do so?
[18:28] <fabio_> yes. but i intend to dual boot with Windows for games, and play blu ray in full hd.
[18:28] <fabio_> so i don't know if intel is powerful enough
[18:28] <adminewb> ^workman^, what if it's all custom configured?
[18:28] <phpstar> i need interactive network applet just like windows
[18:28] <fabio_> also use Blender in Ubuntu
[18:28] <xander> can anyone help me, when i try to call someone trough skype i get the error 'problem with audio playback', i run ubuntu 8.04.
[18:29] <phpstar> can nyone tell me
[18:29] <aeon-ltd> fabio_: i was suggesting to buy a nvidia card separatly
[18:29] <^workman^> adminewb: as I said, use the model numbers and manufature names for the hardware.
[18:29] <dotblank> phpstar, like NetworkManager?
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> phpstar: network-manager is part of a standard install
[18:29] <fabio_> aeon: i can't really, they are laptops. i dont have the knowledge to replace that plus it would void the warranty
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> games and laptops.. :) heh heh...
[18:29] <fabio_> so i guess i should just find one with an Nvidia Card? like an ACER? less headaches?
[18:29] <apocalypt> kaeser_: i guess u should do it in /etc/default/grub.....if u edit the grub.cfg after kernel update u loose all configuration
[18:29] <phpstar> yes but just lie windows has beautiful graphical interface is it possible in ubuntu as well
[18:29] <dotblank> I love NM now.. I used to hate it.. but now...
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> phpstar: yes it has a gui
[18:30] <Dr_Willis> fabio_:  also what games you want to play - can be a factor.
[18:30] <adminewb> ^workman^ well thanks for the help
[18:30] <^workman^> adminewb: if your hardware is like 2 days old, bleeding edge, then yes, there might be some compaibility issues, other than that, the linux community has been very fast to get new hardware working
[18:30] <dotblank> phpstar, it is awesome and beautiful..
[18:30] <phpstar> how could i install
[18:30] <fabio_> Dr WIllis mainly older games like GTA San Andreas i love that game
[18:30] <scotty1> hello, how can I know how long my usb modem has been connected to the internet?
[18:30] <^workman^> adminewb: np
[18:30] <kaeser_> Done. Let me test it.
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> phpstar: its already installed. press alt+f2  type nm-applet  press enter
[18:31] <dotblank> scotty1, at some point when connecting a modem it must have fired dmesg event and it is timestamped
[18:31] <Dr_Willis> fabio_:  ive seen that work on some rather old laptops. :)

[18:31] <scotty1> dotblank, is there an easy way to see that, such as in a task bar applet?
[18:31] <dotblank> phpstar, System Monitor will do that
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> fabio_:   ive never owned blueray and dont plan on ever owning blueray stuff any time soon

[18:33] <arooni-mobile> hi folks, w/ bash is there a way to make this:  alias xl='xmms2 playlist load; xmms2 stop; xmms2 play;'  accept an arg?  as in first arg passed in after command goes right after 'load'?
[18:33] <fabio_> yeah :)
[18:33] <thevishy> my desktop is showing no icons suddenly
[18:33] <Dr_Willis> 700 can get a rather decent laptop
[18:33] <hennessy> wow, yeah, i spent 2 days w google already
[18:33] <fabio_> not in Spain
[18:33] <fabio_> everything is fucking overpriced here
[18:33] <maco> fabio_: language
[18:34] <^workman^> !lang | fabio_
[18:34] <maco> fabio_: no f word
[18:34] <fabio_> opps sorry
[18:34] <hennessy> ok, how can i get the mic work?
[18:34] <thevishy> 700 can get a very good laptop :)
[18:34] <enherit> how can i see the boot messages that was displayed during the text mode boot up?
[18:34] <hennessy> i have bluetake's i-phone
[18:34] <dotblank> hennessy, have you tried using blueman?
[18:34] <hennessy> i-phono
[18:34] <kaeser_> I've changed the default to 2, where is supposed the kernel to load but it didn't load. Where is the list with the kernel images to make the counting in grub2?
[18:35] <thevishy> buy a laptop without windows 7 and u get a good deal
[18:35] <hennessy> i managed to get as a headphone w pulseaudio + a script, but mic is missing
[18:35] <thevishy> are there any laptops which are coming with ubuntu - branded ones
[18:35] <apocalypt> scotty1: u looking for a program showing your uptime?
[18:35] <Jamed> enherit: do you want to see them while booting or after?
[18:35] <Brucevdk> Hi, running Jaunty (9.04), starting since a few days ago I'm having problems with GVFS mounts (FTP specifically right now). When I edit files with either Geany or even nano I get the error "Input/output error" and the file is essentially deleted (0 bytes). The only editor that manages to save anything properly is Gedit, but I think that has something to do with the fact that it also supported GNOME VFS.
[18:35] <Dr_Willis> kaeser_:  either /etc/default/grub or one on /etc/grub.d/*
[18:35] <enherit> Jamed: after
[18:35] <usser> arooni-mobile, why not just write a script that does that, doesnt have to be alias
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  theres several companies that sell ubuntu installed laptops
[18:36] <usser> arooni-mobile, because no, there's no way to do that with alias
[18:36] <rigel> so i just reinstalled karmic from scratch on saturday
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  but from what ive seen not having windows - dosent save much $$
[18:36] <phpstar> where is system monitor binary file in fily system
[18:36] <rigel> and everything is working fine, except alt-shift-tab doesnt work
[18:36] <thevishy> thats cool
[18:36] <phpstar> file
[18:36] <rigel> i can alt-tab but not alt-shift-tab
 well, yes, installed
[18:36] <dotblank> hennessy, yea Ive noticed that it sometimes works/ doesnt. the best luck Ive had is with blueman
[18:36] <rigel> whats wrong
[18:36] <thevishy> it saves about 50 usd
[18:36] <Jamed> enherit: afaik thats not possible, however you can make the messages pause after boot is finished until you hit any key (i know it works, but i dont know how)
[18:37] <dotblank> hennessy, does PA report a input device?
[18:37] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  http://www.zareason.com/shop/home.php    has some neat machines
[18:37] <KaffeeJunky123> Hello, I've got a little problem with gstreamer and m4a files, I can play them but the sound is kind of choppy, I've got Ubuntu 9.04
[18:37] <kaeser_> I've forget the upgrate-grub
[18:37] <kaeser_> dah
it connects, but still cant set the input to alsa-bluetooth
[18:37] <Dr_Willis> kaeser_:  yep. thats a big change with the change to grub2 :) back to lilo days
[18:38] <fluxnuk3r> hey guys, I'm trying to install Ubuntu, and as I am most accustomed to Slackware, not being able to simply edit the boot line for the install CD is killing me. My hardware is rather troublesome, and I have to add the parameters "pci=nomsi" and "pci=nopcmcia" for the distro to read my hard drive, however, editing this line in ubuntu has not made any difference, can I get some suggestions?
[18:38] <addisonj> ? mirrorlist
[18:38] <hennessy> hmm, i'm kind of new... PA?
[18:38] <laeg> are you all using empathy instead of pidgin now?
[18:38] <dotblank> hennessy, this is kind of hard to troubleshoot over pa
[18:38] <Axz> Guys how to change this? "mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only"
[18:38] <addisonj> fluxnuk3r, you can edit the boot line live
[18:38]  * Dr_Willis dosent use empathy or pidgin :)
[18:38] <dotblank> over IRC*
[18:38] <ghostman> Nazis on freenode kicked me without reason from there channels!
[18:39] <addisonj> Axz, reboot
[18:39] <usser> Axz, eh, its a cd. cds are read only
[18:39] <hennessy> ok, what to do than?
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> Axz:  thats your optical drive - it makes sence for it to be read only
[18:39] <addisonj> ah lol
[18:39] <hennessy> ssh maybe?
[18:39]  * addisonj should read which device it is
[18:39] <Axz> Dr_Willis, oke how do you explain this problem then? http://pastebin.com/f332cadd4
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> Axz:  summarize the problem a bit perhaps?
[18:39] <Axz> Becauae i can't burn anything
[18:39] <fluxnuk3r> addisonj, I have added the lines to the boot line, but it doesn't seen to make any difference, adduser fails with error 11 and everything goes downhill from there
[18:40] <thevishy> Dr_Willis, nice link
[18:40] <Axz> jusrt starts burnung and not even 1 sec it stops
[18:40] <fluxnuk3r> *seem

[18:41] <Axz> Dr_Willis, i also tryed on Nero Linux
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> thevishy:  from what ive seen/read about laptops. most big companies just get them from generic companies and rebrand them a great deal
[18:41] <Hans_Henrik> got a really strange problem, it only occurs with the game FreeDink, when i DONT have the game running, and i put the USB keyboard in, and start the game, the mouse slowly "begins to scroll up" automatically, and it doesn't help to take out the keyboard, i have to stop the game, take out the USB keyboard, and restart the game, however when i fist start the game, then after it's started puts...
[18:41] <Hans_Henrik> ...the USB keyboard in, all works fine... reallly strange problem, ideas to what could be wrong? and/or how to fix?
[18:41] <apocalypt> your drive specification tells u with cd/dvd rw u can use with it
[18:41] <sunrider> Negro Linux
[18:42] <sunrider> I like it.
[18:42] <Axz> ut yeah will try k3b
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> Axz:  you tried k3b also?
[18:42] <pharming> so do i just need to adjust the size? if so how?
[18:42] <apocalypt> -with +which
[18:42] <Axz> Dr_Willis, no will install now right away
[18:42] <xster> Jamed: does it fill the screen for you?
[18:42] <Guest47493> Dr_Willis ..good afternoon from the East Coast .. ;-)
[18:42] <thevishy> do u know any of these generic companies ?
[18:42] <pharming> do you know if there is a web site that i can get images to put in skydome that are already to specs?
[18:42] <Jamed> xster: yes
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> Guest47493:  just about my bed time.. in fact it is.. :()
[18:42] <Guest47493> Good afternoon everyone .. ;-)
[18:43] <maco> sunrider: Nero, as in the emperor who burned down Rome. there's cd burning software named after him
[18:43] <apocalypt> pharming: google looking for wallpaper that's all what u need i guess
[18:43] <xster> Jamed: how did you specify it? would it be possible to extend it to 1920 or is 1024 the limit?
[18:43] <pharming> hmmm... k thanks
[18:43] <grot> aha, now I get it, rom , Rome
[18:43] <Jamed> xster: all that tty resolution setting thing changed in 9.10 (you dont use vga-codes anymore) and i am not familiar with it (running another distro right now)
[18:43] <apocalypt> pharming: or try gnome-look.org
[18:44] <usser> pharming, here i think he explained very nicely http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-desktop-74/compiz-skydome-image-too-big-cant-see-all-of-it-635075/
[18:44] <usser> pharming, gnome-look.org
[18:44] <Guest47493> Dr_Willis .. got a 250 Gigs hd.  I clone the image (Ubunto 9.10) from a 40.0 gig hd using the Linux clone program (don't remember the name of it), ever since then Ubunto only recognizes 40.0 gigs not a 250 gigs.  Is there a fix for it?  BIOS read 250 Gigs.
[18:44] <dotblank> hennessy, does PA actually show a new input device
[18:44] <sunrider> maco, i thought he set himself on fire and thats where the cd burner stuff came from
[18:44] <xster> Jamed: I'm on backtrack, what should I google for to figure out what you're doing?
[18:44] <Jamed> xster: i remember my resolution being set automaticaly
[18:44] <dotblank> hennessy, it might be easier to intsall pavucontrol
[18:44] <mrfrank1> running ubuntu 9.04 w/2.6.28-16 kernel. klogd keeps popping up and hogging cpu. I kill with sig 9 and 4 the next 5 minutes or so, machine slows & stops until i hit enter.-fox-

[19:04] <Patrick`> wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down

[19:05] <Patrick`> 08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 04)
[19:05] <Patrick`> that one didnt.. :p

[19:05] <Patrick`> assumed I did..
[19:05] <KaffeeJunky123> Patrick`: hey someone answered your thread
[19:05] <perlmonkey2> I can create righclick events but not left click
[19:05] <apocalypt> Patrick`: notebook?
[19:06] <BluesKaj> Patrick`, I use atheros with wicd. I removed network-manger then installed wicd , but before setting wicd up with the required settings for my router , I did 'sudo ifup wlan0' in the terminal to start network interfaces.
[19:07] <rhorse> Patrick`: what does your iwconfig anf ifconfig show?
[19:07] <gooluum> Ubuntu Sucks!
[19:07] <BluesKaj> Patrick`, then i set up wicd and it works fine

[19:08]  * astra-x knows nothing of grub2
[19:08] <rhorse> Patrick, are you using encryption, which type?
[19:08] <duffydack> anyone here running ubuntu on the new dell studio 17 i7 laptop?
[19:08] <Patrick`> wow to many questions
[19:08] <CNLiberal> so I've setup NFS4 on 9.10 and the mount shows up on the client machine, however, when i "dir" the folders, there is nothing in them even though there is on the server

[19:08] <Patrick`> I need to activate it with a program @ my computer amilo LI 2727

[19:10] <Patrick`> ..
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> Patrick`: try without security. not all wifi devices can use wpa under linux
[19:10] <rhorse> Patrick`: first check the settings for users & authorizations and check the wireless tab, that you have permission for device.
[19:11] <t0rc> is there a way to check the version of a lib in ubuntu?

[19:12] <rhorse> Patrick`: should be in settings somewhere. Also, consider switching to wep encrypt it's *good enough* and much easier to implement for the driver
[19:12] <Patrick`> need to edit that in the router right :+ .. (I am half asleep ssorry)
[19:12] <thevishy> i had copied a file before to the same and then ejected and now replug and its saying this
[19:12] <ubuntu> how do install a package taz.bz2
[19:12] <apocalypt> i guess the encryption is the second step if he don't see any networks
[19:12] <wegi> hi there, i want to customize a live cd for an older laptop w/o hdd, but would need to have a homedir on an usb stick to make some customizations and work with it. It's meant as a temporary solution to a real PC. Can anybody give me some hints, names, keywords for that kind of configuration to google for. I can't find anything about it (the usb home dir thing). Thanks
[19:12] <perlmonkey2> wep is not "good enough".  You might as well not be using encryption.
[19:13] <apocalypt> encryption is just needed in the connection step
[19:13] <thevishy> any ideas , why I am not able to copy a file to the USB , says read only file system
[19:13] <Patrick`> agr
[19:13] <ubuntu> how do install a package taz.bz2???

[19:23] <ubuntunewbie> Thank iceroot , solve my open office problem at the channel . :-) thanks for the suggestion ;-)
[19:23] <pyJack> hi
[19:23] <pyJack> I just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10
[19:23] <piojunbabia> find: /home/piojunbabia/.aptitude: Permission denied
[19:23] <ghostman> rigel: mimimi! ;)
[19:23] <pyJack> I need to migrate all my old python packages to python2.6
[19:23] <hanosha> i need to make my ubuntu screen far show
[19:23] <pyJack> is there a clever way of doing it?
[19:24] <apocalypt> Axz i guess your problem isn't the permission. did u try to burn under other os?
[19:24] <guntbert> theicyj: if there really is a channel in albanian language - we should probably suggest a factoid about it
[19:24] <apocalypt> maybe a hardware problem Axz?
[19:24] <Axz> apocalypt, no, only OS i run is Ubuntu
[19:24] <hanosha> i need to see ubuntu like 4 side in box
[19:24] <usser_> pyJack, migrating to 2.6 is largely pointless. 2.6 is pretty much the same as 2.5.
[19:24] <DrHalan> what if a live cd doesn't detect my ext4 filesystem as a ext4 filesystem?
[19:24] <hanosha> pls help

[19:25] <isolat3dsh33p> the new update is BIND, what is it?
[19:25] <DrHalan>  genjixx it changed because ubutnu uses grub2 now

[19:26] <usser_> pyJack, i dunno of a clever way to do it. apart from setting your shebang to /usr/bin/python2.6
[19:27] <usser_> pyJack, or removing old python altogether and seeing what exactly breaks when you attempt to run your apps
[19:27] <apocalypt> Cube u want use ssh from windows to your linux right?

[19:51] <JoeSomebody> Hi, if i want to run an antivirus package in ubuntu 9.10 (for my ntfs and networked drives) which one should i use?
[19:51] <Jamed> JoeSomebody: clamav
[19:52] <ssd5>  just now I installed nfs-kernel-server package on ubuntu server 9.10. but now its saying "Not starting NFS kernel daemon: no suppport in current kernel". o/p of uname -a 2.6.31-14-generic-pae. what should I do?
[19:52] <JoeSomebody> so sudo apt-get install clamav? :)
[19:52] <alabd> what does rad only mean for a folder ?
[19:52] <Jamed> JoeSomebody: i guess
[19:52] <burg> hello. when i try to compile a c++ source using monodevelop, it tells me that i don`t have g++ installed. how do i install it?
[19:52] <ckw> Jamed, It's a standard keyboard, I used it with 9.04 and it worked
[19:53] <daftykins> alabd: read only on a folder means you can view the contents but not modify/write/change inside it
[19:53] <Jamed> ckw: no idea then
[19:53] <ghostman>  You have been kicked from #gentoo-chat by Monkeh (*trollstick*) You have been kicked from #gentoo-chat by Monkeh (*trollstick*)
[19:53] <hennessy> guy, can someone direct me2 the right place to deal w bluetooth headsets?
[19:53] <ghostman>  You have been kicked from #gentoo-chat by Monkeh (*trollstick*)
[19:53] <hennessy> guys
[19:53] <hennessy> well
[19:53] <ghostman> lol
[19:54] <trism> burg: sudo apt-get install g++
[19:54] <genii> ghostman: You may soon be kicked from here as well, if you persist
[19:54] <mneptok> ghostman: do you have anything substative to add to the conversation?
[19:54] <ghostman> lol
[19:54] <alabd> daftykins:  no with chmod 400 /folder path folder contents can not be view
[19:55] <JoeSomebody> i am still new to linux here, does uninstalling packages leave stuff behind like in windows( folders / registry pollution) ?
[19:55] <olvap> how do i downgrade a specific migration
[19:55] <olvap> ?
[19:55] <daftykins> alabd: you need execute on a folder to be able to enter it, so i've heard
[19:55] <Jamed> JoeSomebody: it dows leave some configs
[19:55] <Jamed> JoeSomebody: *does
[19:55] <raghuvansh> hello.. is there an issue with the latest kernel updates? installed them this morning and now grub gives me a text interface and says there's no OS installed.. i'm new to linux.
[19:55] <nishant_> i inserted my virus usb couple of times into my laptop to create a kapersky rescue disk . is there any thing I should do to check that my computer is not infected or anything ?
[19:55] <hennessy> guz, any bluetooth expert?
[19:55] <anon423> hey... i dont know what it is called but i wanna shut it off. this little things in the top right corner, baloontipps or some. how can i do this or what is the correct term to search for in google?
[19:56] <warriorforgod> anon423: osd-notify
[19:56] <JoeSomebody>  these configs are inactive though , right?
[19:56] <anon423> thx
[19:56] <Jamed> JoeSomebody: yes until you reinstall the package, then they will be used again afaik
[19:56] <Rajasun> JoeSomebody: the residual configs and cruft can be purged with i.e. sudo deborphan | xargs sudo apt-get -y remove --purge && sudo deborphan --guess-data | xargs sudo apt-get -y remove --purge; sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo aptitude purge '~c'
[19:57] <alabd> daftykins:  and chmod 500 is ok now will that make files in folder read only ?
[19:57] <leshaste> ckw: that's not right. I want only the installed packages
[19:57] <leshaste> trism: thanks.. trying it now
[19:57] <daftykins> alabd: 500 means only root can view methinks, i suggest you google permissions because if you're setting a folder up so other users can read, that's not going to do it
[19:58] <mrfrank1> any idea why klogd pops up and hogs the cpu until I kill it? Happens once on every boot.
[19:59] <Jamed> alabd: 400 is readonly for the owner
[19:59] <Jamed> alabd: oops i mean 500
[20:01] <alabd> can we see file/folder permission in digit mode like 777 ?
[20:01] <mneptok> Jamed: you had it right the first time
[20:01] <djwhiplash> Hey guys, i have a quick question that I'm having a hard time finding an answer regarding licensing of Ubuntu 9.04.... I know it's released under the GPL, but I can't find which GPL version... Is it GPLv3?
[20:01] <Alan502> Hi :) i was playing with aircrack but now my wireless doesn't work. I cannot activate it from the network manager. Althought, the wired connection still works. How do i enable my wireless again?
[20:02] <maco> djwhiplash: it depends on the software
[20:02] <Jamed> mneptok: not for folders there its 500 if you still want to be able to use them
[20:02] <maco> djwhiplash: some things are gpl2, some gpl3, some mpl...
[20:02] <daftykins> Alan502: check your wireless interface isn't mentioned in /etc/network/interfaces
[20:02] <maco> djwhiplash: the kernel, for example, is gpl2, but im sure many of the gnu tools are gpl3
[20:02] <djwhiplash> ahh alright, that makes sense... thanks :)
[20:02] <mneptok> Jamed: if you want to be able to open folders, they need the execute bit set. 500 is read/execute. read-only is 400.
[20:03] <aeon-ltd> Alan502: your wifi card might be stuck in monitor mode
[20:03] <firefly2> my desktop lost the taskbars - after a crash yesterday - and I dont know how to fix it - I am flying blind right now and barely managed to come here - any hint what to do is highly appreciated (xubuntu 9.04) thx
[20:03] <daftykins> firefly2: try hitting alt+f2 and typing "gnome-panel" then enter
[20:03] <Alan502> daftykins, my interface "wlan0" is not mentioned on /etc/network/interfaces
[20:03] <Jamed> mneptok: right but what but a folder with 400 is useless you cant even list the content
[20:04] <dare> can anybody recommend a gui startup service manager
[20:04] <Alan502> aeon-ltd, i think i have already disabled monitor mode, tho let me check...
[20:04] <daftykins> Alan502: have you restarted since?
[20:04] <maco> daftykins: alt+f2 box is part of gnome-panel so if its not running, that wont work
[20:04] <^workman^> dare: gdm?
[20:04] <daftykins> maco: really? ah ok, could of sworn i did that a bit ago, ah well terminal it is
[20:04] <dare> ^workman^: to remove services from startup there used to be an admin app called 'services' but removed in karmic
[20:04] <Pici> !info bum | dare
[20:04] <dare> ty
[20:05] <Alan502> aeon-ltd, disabled, and now restarting; im restarting now daftykins
[20:05] <phoenixz> What package / program can I use to completely control a desktop of another computer but that can use SSH forwarding?
[20:06] <daftykins> if they're both Linux based, why not just tunnel VNC or whatever over SSH?
[20:06] <firefly2> daftykins, says. "failed to run-Failed to execute child process "gnome-panel" (No such file or directory)"
[20:07] <daftykins> so you did get the dialogue window up with alt+f2, but you have no apps/places/system top bar or taskbar firefly2 ?
[20:07] <cancelerx> hi guys am planning to set up a local ubuntu repo on a standalone system on our office network .. i need directions on what to install and configure thanks
[20:07] <Alan502> aeon-ltd, daftykins restarted now, monitor mode disabled and ifconfig up, but still no wireless :( any other ideas?
[20:07] <firefly2> daftykins, thats right
[20:08] <Seveas> cancelerx, apt-get install debmirror; man debmirror :)
[20:08] <jonz_> hello, i'm having serious problems with my ftp client on ubuntu (and not any other machine - like my schools freebsd machine)
[20:08] <jonz_> it times out after i type 2 or 3 commands
[20:08] <aeon-ltd> Alan502: restarted what btw the pc or daemon?
[20:08] <daftykins> firefly2: hmm, do you know if any updates have installed before the crash happened?
[20:08] <Alan502> aeon-ltd, the pc
[20:08] <daftykins> or since
[20:08] <alabd> after chmod 500 dir , ls shows dr-x------  2 alabd alabd 4096 2009-12-07 23:33 . why just x ? should not be xr cause of tthat 5 ?
[20:09] <jonz_> did anyone have to modify there ftp client (the cli one: /usr/bin/ftp) to use it on ubuntu
[20:09] <^workman^> Seveas: does apt-mirror work as well?
[20:09] <dAlfa89_> Say I wanted to find my wireless device on lspci, which one would it be? All I can find that's network-related is the ethernet controller, which would be the wired connection, right?
[20:09] <daftykins> dAlfa89_: are you diagnosing a non-working one?
[20:09] <Jamed> alabd: there is r d_r_-x...
[20:09] <aeon-ltd> Alan502: can you ping anything? test through eth0 aswell
[20:09] <daftykins> dAlfa89_: pastebin your lspci output and link it here
[20:10] <Seveas> ^workman^, probably. Never used it myself but it looks very similar to debmirror
[20:10] <Trizicus> With update-alternatives how do I list what settings I can change?
[20:10] <^workman^> Seveas: cool ok ty. That's what I was going to use =)
[20:10] <dAlfa89_> daftykins, it works, I can use iwlist scan and all, but I can't find the device name, pastebinning
[20:10] <Seveas> Trizicus, ls -la /etc/alternatives
[20:10] <superpaco> anyone knows why 9.10 is karmanic???
[20:10] <aeon-ltd> Alan502: are you connected and no internet or no connection?
[20:10] <firefly2> not between "it works" and "it doesnt", daftykins , i had to reset (no clean shutdown) before this happened
[20:10] <Trizicus> Seveas: Thanks
[20:10] <daftykins> dAlfa89_: oh, nothing from "ifconfig -a" ?
[20:10] <Alan502> through the eth0 yes, aeon-ltd ; it seems that eth0 is working alright but wlan0 is the only one with trouble
[20:10] <superpaco> anyone knows why 9.10 is karmanic???
[20:10] <Seveas> superpaco, the name 'Karmic Koala' was decided by Mark Shuttleworth
[20:11] <Trizicus> Seveas: This helps me a lot :)
[20:11] <Alan502> aeon-ltd, i am connected through the internet, by the wired interface
[20:11] <superpaco> Seveas, and what does it means?
[20:11] <balau> jonz_, if you are connecting with a ftp "active" client, do you have you opened port TCP 20 on the firewall?
[20:11] <Seveas> superpaco, a Koala with great Karma :)
[20:11] <^workman^> lol
[20:11] <superpaco> hooo
[20:11] <daftykins> firefly2: ok what i'd try personally, is deleting all .gnome* related folders in your user folder and then restarting
[20:11] <superpaco> :)
[20:11] <superpaco> thanks
[20:11] <hennessy> any expert w bluetooth?
[20:11] <alabd> any opinion ?
[20:11] <Seveas> !anyone | hennessy
[20:12] <Seveas> alabd, 500 is rx, so that output looks good
[20:12] <mezquitale> anyone knows how to install xfce using the command line?
[20:12] <firefly2> thx daftykins i'll try that - cant get worse anyway :)
[20:12] <iceroot> mezquitale: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[20:12] <DeeTah> what's the ubuntu way for setting a CTR+ALT+PLUS/MINUS resolution switch between 1024x600 and 800x600?
[20:12] <hennessy> well, w microphone of bluetooth headset?
[20:12] <daftykins> firefly2: no problem, let me know how it goes
[20:12] <mezquitale> iceroot, thanks
[20:13] <Seveas> alabd, the letters in that line are grouped [flag][rwx][rwx][rwx]
[20:13] <alabd> Seveas:  output shows x only
[20:13] <markincius> hallo
[20:13] <alabd> is it a bug ?
[20:13] <Seveas> alabd, no, it shows r-x
[20:13] <iceroot> !de | markincius
[20:13] <alabd> *buge
[20:13] <DeeTah> i'd also like to set my VGA1 output to always clone the first monitor and restore CRT+ALT+BACKSPACE, it waas cool.
[20:13] <alabd> dr-x- Seveas
[20:13] <alabd> that r pertains to dr mean directrory
[20:14] <Seveas> alabd, the d is for directoty, r-x is for user can read and execute, --- is for group can't do shit, --- means users can't do anything either
[20:14] <dAlfa89_> daftykins, http://pastebin.com/f6f5e0314
[20:14] <alabd> Seveas:  to be sure you can test
[20:14] <Trizicus> I have noticed that my BIND DNS server is not caching anything. Do I need to specify a cache directory/location in options?
[20:14] <alabd> Seveas: after chmod 500 dir , ls shows dr-x------  2 alabd alabd 4096 2009-12-07 23:33 . why just x ? should not be xr cause of tthat 5 ?
[20:15] <daftykins> dAlfa89_: looks like the computer you're on is a cheaper one employing a USB wireless controller, try 'lsusb'
[20:15] <dAlfa89_> daftykins, I might just be missing something massively obvious, but I was just making sure
[20:15] <Seveas> alabd, go read the ls manpage if you don't belueve me.
[20:15] <DeeTah> can I safely set my own Xorg.conf or do I have to know anything before?
[20:15] <alabd> Seveas: drwxr-xr-x 13 alabd alabd 4096 2009-12-07 23:29 ..
[20:15] <DyGyTyL> iwconfig works wonders too for wireless usb stuff
[20:15] <alabd> any other opinion ?
[20:15] <Digitalaxis> Good evening everyone
[20:15] <Seveas> alabd, that means: d for directory, rwx for read-write-execute and r-x twice for read and execute
[20:15] <dAlfa89_> daftykins, aha! I assumed since it's a laptop it'd be on lspci, but nonetheless, thanks ever so much  :D
[20:15] <NarbeH> how can i put Evolution Mail in System Tray?
[20:15] <daftykins> :) no problem
[20:16] <daftykins> does it show?
[20:16] <maco> NarbeH: you dont. and its not a tray, its a notification area. it just shows notifications
[20:16] <Shurakai> hi guys
[20:16] <dAlfa89_> daftykins, it does, Realtek, should've just guessed ;D
[20:16] <NarbeH> maco: when i close it, no notifications are showing.
[20:16] <daftykins> =] cool
[20:16] <alabd> Seveas:  you are right thanks
[20:16] <maco> NarbeH: aye, it cant check for mail while closed
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: so i want the window closed
[20:17] <maco> NarbeH: just minimize it, or put it on another workspace
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: oh
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: btw
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: why the sync is very slow?
[20:17] <Shurakai> I've got a question - I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and occasionally, my Gnome turns to ignore left clicks. After restarting gdm it works as expected again, but that kinda sucks. Does anyone have a solution?
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: i mean the speed.
[20:17] <maco> NarbeH: no idea
[20:17] <NarbeH> maco: maybe i'm using SSL ?
[20:17] <ronin_> good evening everyone
[20:18] <trism> NarbeH: you could try the mail-notification and mail-notification-evolution packages
[20:18] <Shurakai> (right clicks still work as expected!)
[20:18] <maco> NarbeH: i dont know. i dont use gnome, and i dont remember how evolution was, but i did use ssl too
[20:18] <Seveas> !pm | hennessy
[20:18] <NarbeH> trism: but i really like evolution
[20:18] <Leoneof`> i've wlan0 and wlan1, is there are good gui software for wireless? wlan0 for home network, and wlan1 for external network
[20:18] <NarbeH> maco: ok. thq for helping :)
[20:18] <maco> NarbeH: i think trism is saying there are tools to notify you of new mail while evolution is closed
[20:19] <hghgd_> Leoneof`: wicd is good
[20:19] <Seveas> Shurakai, not a solution but a possible workaround: if it happens again open a terminal and do: sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sudo modprobe psmouse
[20:19] <Alan502> Hi :) i was playing with aircrack but now my wireless doesn't work. I cannot activate it from the network manager. Althought, the wired connection still works. How do i enable my wireless again?
[20:19] <hghgd_> has gui and curses uis
[20:19] <ronin_> can you hear me
[20:19] <Trizicus> I have noticed that my BIND DNS server is not caching anything. Do I need to specify a cache directory/location in options?
[20:19] <maco> ronin_: aye
[20:19] <NarbeH> maco: trism : yes i tried them. thanks for helping me. bye
[20:19] <Seveas> Shurakai, if that workaround works, file a bug saying that the mousedriver is broken for you and include as much information as you can :)
[20:19] <Leoneof`> hghgd_: wicd is the best, but it is for one wireless, i want to run two wireless at the same time
[20:19] <ronin_> i am fresh meet i dont now aye
[20:19] <daftykins> Trizicus: in my experience BIND will just work once you turn on cacheing
[20:19] <Trizicus> daftykins: I dont know how to do that :P
[20:20] <hghgd_> it's for one only? oh didn#t know that
[20:20] <ronin_> same to
[20:20] <ronin_> :D
[20:20] <Leoneof`> hghgd_: yes it is for me :(
[20:20] <hennessy> say seveas:, sry i'm new for irc
[20:20] <Leoneof`> oops
[20:20] <daftykins> Trizicus: oh i see, look up the docs on the site then, i'm not sure off hand
[20:20] <Leoneof`> hghgd_: yes it is for ONE :(
[20:20] <DyGyTyL> doesnt that leave u open to pandora's box by having two wi nics up
[20:20] <Seveas> hennessy, np, just ask your question in here and if someone has an answer they'll say so :)
[20:20] <hennessy> sok
[20:21] <daftykins> Leoneof`: what do you want to graphically configure on wireless interfaces?
[20:21] <daftykins> +2
[20:21] <Ripp_> It appears I have both the server kernel and the generic-pae kernel installed...yet grub boots generic-pae by default. Is there any way to make the server kernel the default (and preferably, remove the generic-pae one)?
[20:21] <SIM_EU> hi
[20:21] <SIM_EU> anyone help wit connecting pc to TV thru s-video ?
[20:21] <iceroot> Ripp_: edit grub-menu
[20:22] <hennessy> so, i've have buetooth sound working, but there is no microphone to be set. Can anyone help w it?
[20:22] <Ripp_> Alright, i'll google that
[20:22] <theicyj> SIM_EU: What kind of video card are you using>
[20:22] <Leoneof`> daftykins: wlan0 to connect to local network...and wlan1 for external network, i prefer gui coz it is easy to configure, i hate terminal
[20:22] <Seveas> Ripp_, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to boot the other one as default. Reboot to boot into it, then remove the package for the other kernel.
[20:22] <SIM_EU> theicyi nvidia
[20:22] <badp> Hello.Is JeOs dead or is it just made for LTS versions of Ubuntu?
[20:22] <Yos> Anyone have any idea how I can have 7Gb left on a thumb drive but every small file that I try to copy to it, I get error: not enough space left on device?
[20:22] <theicyj> SIM_EU: did you install the nvidia-drivers?
[20:23] <SIM_EU> theicyi yes
[20:23] <SIM_EU> theicyi NVIDIA X Server Settings
[20:23] <daftykins> Leoneof`: ah, i know CLI only i'm afraid
[20:23] <Seveas> Yos, possible reason: filesystem messed up because you unplugged it without unmounting.
[20:23] <Seveas> Yos, unmount it and run fsck on it.
[20:23] <Leoneof`> daftykins: oh :(
[20:23] <theicyj> SIM_EU: Does the display show up in the Nvidia settings manager?
[20:24] <hanosha> hello how to install beryl
[20:24] <Seveas> Yos, or reformat it
[20:24] <dAlfa89_> !beryl | hanosha
[20:24] <hanosha> pls help
[20:24] <Yos> Seveas, how do I run fsck on it ?
[20:24] <SIM_EU> theicyi it shows the TV yes i enable it but nothing happens on the TV
[20:24] <Seveas> Yos, fsck /dev/yourusbdiskhere
[20:24] <hanosha> so how i got it now
[20:24] <hanosha> how i will get it
[20:25] <Shurakai> Seveas you made my day
[20:25] <Shurakai> it works :)
[20:25] <daftykins> hanosha: what ubuntu version are you in?
[20:25] <iceroot> hanosha: please use one line for a detailed question
[20:25] <laeg> !sound
[20:25] <Seveas> Shurakai, excellent :)
[20:25] <hanosha> 2.4.1
[20:25] <Shurakai> i was actually thinking about reloading the mouse driver but i was looking somewhere at usb*
[20:26] <daftykins> that's not an ubuntu version
[20:26] <theicyj> SIM_EU:  Did you try changing NVIDIA drivers to the latest?  If I recall, there were two restricted drivers available, and an older one was used by default.  Did you try the newer one?
[20:26] <Shurakai> but i actually don't know what i do when it happens, so how could i provide information on this?
[20:26] <SIM_EU> theicyi where do i see that ?
[20:26] <Cube``> hey
[20:26] <^workman^> hanosha: click "system->preferences->appearance" then click the tab "visual Effects"
[20:27] <theicyj> SIM_EU:  System -> Administration - > Hardware drivers
[20:28] <SIM_EU> theicyi only shows version 185(recomended) wich i have installed and then version 173
[20:28] <Subby> hi, is there a tiny picture viewer? eye of gnome doesnt recognize if a picture file that is opened changes
[20:29] <Cube``> hey guys listen: finch is pidgin (libpurple) but text. i want to be able to access the finch running on my computer1 from computer2, and by access i mean that i want to be able to use computer1, type a message, then go to computer2 and have exactly the same terminal screen in front of me, and type message two. i tried it with ssh, but when starting finch on computer2, it starts a COMPLETELY NEW INSTANCE. that's not what i want. any ideas?
[20:30] <Shurakai> Seveas, if I want to file this problem, what information do I need to include? I really don't know when this problem occurs
[20:30] <Roasted> Question - In Dolphin within KDE, I have advanced permissions options, like the ability to set the GID of the folder. Is there anyway I can do that in Nautilus?
[20:30] <Shurakai> Roasted, without sudo'ing?
[20:30] <daftykins> Cube``: you want to be able to chat to someone else using the same program? may i ask why you can't use another solution?
[20:30] <theicyj> SIM_EU:  Maybe try running sudo nvidia-settings
[20:30] <Alan502> Hi :) i was playing with aircrack but now my wireless doesn't work. I cannot activate it from the network manager. Althought, the wired connection still works. How do i enable my wireless again?
[20:31] <Roasted> shurakai - dolphin does it without sudoing - I assume nautilus could to... if the option is there.
[20:31] <Seveas> Shurakai, exact symptomps, the workaround used, make and model of the hardware, lsusb output (if it's a usb mouse), relevant lines from /var/log/{messages,syslog} and dmesg
[20:31] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: You want screen, me think. (or byobu)
[20:31] <Cube``> daftykins: no. it's more like vnc what i want, but its all just text, just a terminal, so i dont want any full-blown vnc stuff
[20:32] <ronin_> guys where to find can office 2007
[20:32] <Cube``> leaf-sheep: yeah somebody told me screen might be the solution! but what should i type where?
[20:32] <daftykins> Cube``: what's the ultimate goal though, what do you want to achieve?
[20:32] <maco> ronin_: im sure you can buy it in your local computer or office supply shop
[20:32] <Roasted> shurakai - I do have to be owner of the folder in dolphin to do it without sudo though. I was just hoping I could integrate advanced options within nautilus.
[20:32] <leaf-sheep> ronin_: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
[20:32] <Seveas> ronin_, any decent computer store.
[20:32] <theicyj> SIM_EU: another suggestiong would be to run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then "sudo nvidia-settings"
[20:32] <Yos> Seveas, looks like I have to format it...how to do that
[20:32] <Seveas> Yos, sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/yourusbdrivehere
[20:33] <SIM_EU> theicyi didn't work
[20:33] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: Mmm. Start a screen by typing screen (or byobu). You will need to learn few screen commands.
[20:33] <franc> clear
[20:33] <Seveas> Yos, make sure you get the devicepath right or you'll wipe something you don't want to wipe :)
[20:33] <Alan502> Any kde docks recommended? im looking for something similar to "stardock" in windows
[20:33] <ronin_> yes microsoft thanx
[20:33] <Cube``> leaf-sheep: ok done
[20:33] <Yos> Seveas, how can I know what is my usb device in /dev ?
[20:34] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi#learning_screen
[20:34] <^workman^> Yos, double check your device with "fdisk -l". look for your USB drive
[20:34] <theicyj> SIM_EU:  So the screen shows up, but when you enable it and apply, you have no picture?  Are you trying twinview mode?
[20:34] <superpaco> any know if firefox portable can be installed on Ubuntu 9.10???
[20:34] <daftykins> Yos: "sudo fdisk -l"
[20:34] <Yos> Thanks
[20:34] <duffydack> or type mount
[20:34] <hanosha> hello
[20:34] <^workman^> !hi | hanosha
[20:34] <Cube``> leaf-sheep: hmm.. but which exactly is the one i need?
[20:35] <hanosha> how can i install beryl in ubuntu 9.10
[20:35] <duffydack> oh, you're formatting it, so its not mounted..oops
[20:35] <Shurakai> Seveas, thanks for your help, it's really appreciated
[20:35] <anli_> When I have added myself to a group, do I need to logout and login to make the settings effective?
[20:35] <superpaco> any know if firefox portable can be installed on Ubuntu 9.10???
[20:35] <Alan502> i get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unkonw errror 132" when i try to "ifconfig wlan0 up" what can be wrong?
[20:35] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: It is great if you're copying stuffs or format in screen instead of the terminal (or ssh) because if you log out in ssh or close the terminal, the programs close. :(
[20:35] <guntbert> superpaco: the "portable apps" are windows only - as far as  I know
[20:35] <Shurakai> Roasted, I don't know, didn't use that feature until now.
[20:35] <SIM_EU> theicyi the screen shows up, i enable and apply and it takes efect on the pc but on the TV is just black like before
[20:36] <superpaco> yes it looks like
[20:36] <superpaco> :(
[20:36] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: byobu is same as screen.  It recently renamed itself to byobu to disassociate itself from screen, me think.
[20:36] <theicyj> SIM_EU: stupid question, but is the TV set to the correct input?
[20:36] <magpie> Hi folks, Ubuntu newbie here _ downloaded a couple of games via the Synaptic Download manager but they have not appeared in the applications/games folder. Where would they be?
[20:36] <superpaco> why people does not think on the biggest open source  comunity ???????
[20:36] <trism> Cube``: you can do byobu (or screen) -x to attach to an already running session, so if I start screen on computer one, and ssh in from computer two, I can attach to the attached screen with byobu -x
[20:36] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: sudo aptitude install byobu ; try "screen"  If that does not work, then "byobu"
[20:36] <Seveas> magpie, if they are console games they will not appear in there
[20:37] <Cube``> trism: how do i attach!
[20:37] <ronin_> hey guys how many office 2007 to your country
[20:37] <SIM_EU> theicyi its on the scart and the TV on AV mode, i dont think thats the problem
[20:37] <^workman^> trism: don't forget screen -list to find the number =)
[20:37] <maco> superpaco: you can just download a statically compiled firefox for linux from the firefox website and put it on a flash drive
[20:37] <magpie> Hi Seveas - console games? Would I need an emulator?
[20:37] <pcbuilder97> i need some help finding some compiz plugins.  can sombody help?
[20:37] <maco> superpaco: untar it, then run the firefox executable thats inside it

[20:38] <magpie> So how do I get them to work, these are graphic games, must I run them via the terminal?
[20:38] <hanosha> pls help me guys
[20:38] <superpaco> any other browser that runns good on ubuntu besides firefox??
[20:38] <trism> ^workman^: good point, although with only a single instance, byobu -x will attach to that instance
[20:38] <leaf-sheep> Cube``: Read the tutorial link I posted recently.  It cover the basic tutorial on screen. "screen -raAd"

[20:38] <^workman^> trism: oh cool.... did not know. Will have to check byobu out
[20:38] <superpaco> and it runs flash player as well???
[20:38] <Cube``> trism: OH MAN

[20:40] <hanosha> duffydack what the emerald ?
[20:41] <magpie> hmmm, locked me out of the system menu, need to log off here
[20:41] <Seveas> Gadu, I don't think there is a way, other than hacking the source :)

[20:41] <hanosha> pls the beryl guys :S how i get it
[20:41] <Gadu> I see, better get to it then. thanks for your help

[20:41] <anli_> :)
[20:41] <Alan502> Seveas, i have already restarted and disabled monitor mode
[20:42] <hanosha> duffydack pls the beryl man how i get it
[20:42] <DyGyTyL> i have no idea what it is but dood said 3 times that it merged try getting the compiz fusion and tinkering with that i would imagine :P
[20:42] <apocalypt> anli_: i guess through the options of the filebrowser
[20:42] <Seveas> Alan502, what kind of wireless card/chip is it?
[20:42] <osmosis_> how do I determine what package owns a installed file?
[20:42] <anli_> I also guess that...
[20:42] <Seveas> osmosis_, dpkg -S /path/to/file
[20:42] <^workman^> hanosha: beryl is now compiz-fusion. It's already installed in ubuntu. Go to your Syste->Perferences->Appearance and click the "Visual" tab
[20:43] <hanosha> how to get the emerald ?
[20:43] <Cube``> trism: thank you so much. it was the multi display option of screen that i was looking for
[20:43] <Gadu> anli_ did you set the preferences in view to your desired view?

[20:43] <Alan502> Seveas, sorry not linux, intel
[20:43] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[20:43] <^workman^> hanosha: more options....
[20:43] <magpie> Seveas - it's called kcheckers
[20:44] <hanosha> there is no more option
[20:44] <hanosha> ^workman^ there is no buttom for options
[20:44] <rosco_y> can anyone suggest an easy way to connect to the scanner on my all-in-one printer?
[20:44] <mheg> is there any way I can create a link so that when I delete the link it deletes the files it links to too? and If I copy the link it copies the files to?
[20:44] <theicyj> SIM_EU: Looks like you are not alone,  I would watch this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=931647&highlight=nvidia+s-video
[20:45] <hanosha> ^workman^ ?
[20:45] <Seveas> magpie, ah, that's a KDE game. For reasons I do not agree with it was decided not to show some KDE applications in the gnome menu and vice versa
[20:45] <^workman^> hanosha:  oh... yea, bummer
[20:45] <^workman^> I just tried it...
[20:45] <Alan502> Seveas, still here
[20:45] <magpie> How do I run it then, Seveas?
[20:45] <^workman^> hanosha: 1 sec
[20:46] <osmosis_> Seveas, thanks
[20:46] <Seveas> magpie, from the alt+f2 dialog or the terminal. You should also be able to make it visible if you rightclick on 'Applications' and click 'edit menus'
[20:46] <Alan502> Seveas, i just noticed that my wireless does not work in ANY of my linux distributions installed, just windows!
[20:46] <Alan502> Seveas, could it be a kernel problem?
[20:46] <ED__> any suggestions for IRC client , mp3 player client and um something else ?
[20:46] <Seveas> Alan502, a quick google doesn't show anything promising
[20:46] <iceroot> what shell is ubuntu using with /bin/sh? is it bash or dash?
[20:47] <^workman^> hanosha: I think if you install compiz-fusion your kinda on your own there...
[20:47] <Seveas> Alan502, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you any further, sorry
[20:47] <trism> iceroot: dash according to readlink /bin/sh
[20:47] <Seveas> iceroot, dash
[20:47] <genii> iceroot: ls -l /bin/sh   may tell you

[20:53] <hanosha> Flannel 9.10
[20:53] <Yos> Nope, it is correct
[20:53] <Seveas> Yos, mkfs disagrees :)
[20:54] <aar> Beezie, Sacho the * affects the subdirectories too (which I want to exclude)
[20:54] <Flannel> hanosha: You're looking for just plain "compiz", but that's also already installed.  You need to install the settings manager to configure it, compizconfig-settings-manager

[20:55] <hanosha> compizconfig-settings-manager how i can get in to it :S ?
[20:55] <aar> trism: genius, thanks!
[20:55] <damjanzg> I am shamed to ask this but I will. I installed another OS (they call it windows7) beside ubuntu. But when I reboot the grub cant see it, what can I do to grub see it?
[20:55] <hanosha> Flannel compizconfig-settings-manager how i can get in to it  ?
[20:56] <BlackFate> damjanzg, 9.10?
[20:56] <aar> damjanzg, you need to reset grub with a live cd
[20:56] <damjanzg> yes
[20:56] <^workman^> Yos: you can't mkfs on a raw disk. it has to have a partition.
[20:56] <Flannel> hanosha: Did you install it? (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager) after you install it, It sits under System > Preferences, but I'm not sure of the exact menu entry, It should say compiz and settings if I remember properly
[20:56] <BlackFate> damjanzg, why dont you try .. sudo update-grub and see if it adds any entry for windows
[20:56] <damjanzg> I will try

[20:57] <Seveas> _CommandeR_, not really
[20:58] <^workman^> Yos: yes I understand. but the drive has to have a partition to format. so run fdisk /dev/sdc, n, 1 p, "hit enter 2x", press w. then mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc1
[20:58] <Beezie> aar, doesn'y 9.10 use grub2?
[20:58] <_CommandeR_> Seveas, but if i have ntfs partitions is there any app to defrag them ?
[20:58] <damjanzg> I think that sudo update-grub worked. Tnx. I am going to try reboot. Dont wory I will not stay on win:)
[20:58] <_CommandeR_> or do i need to boot into windows?

[21:06] <apocalypt> there u can choose the sda
[21:06] <weq> apocalypt: no disks are listed in the parition step.
[21:06] <_CommandeR_> is there any new grub version for ubuntu or is the beta 4 the latest one ?
[21:06] <vik> how to remove rt73usb (or stop using it) and how to start using ndiswrapper? thanks
[21:07] <DyGyTyL> im getting non-system disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready after a "successful" fresh ubuntu install. i assume its a grep issue but don't know how to troubleshoot it pls help
[21:07] <apocalypt> weq did u connect both drives under windows with softwareraid?
[21:07] <weq> no
[21:07] <weq> I had only one disk connected when I installed windows.
[21:07] <weq> then connected the other to install ubuntu to it.
[21:07] <kostkon> hi mr aouaou
[21:08] <Seveas> Teleken, http://www.dansdata.com/askdan00015.htm <-- look for the memory remapping thing in your bios and change it
[21:08] <DyGyTyL> grub * rather
[21:08] <aouaou> hello mr roboto
[21:08] <apocalypt> weq can u see this drive under windows management?
[21:08] <aouaou> kostkon: how from here morning morning?
[21:09] <kostkon> aouaou, morning? what the... ok. c ya. bye
[21:09] <weq> apocalypt: haven't booted up with it during windows. But the disks works, disk checked and everything. I can see them both fine with the ubuntu live cd.
[21:09] <aouaou> koston dont u leave me
[21:09] <Leoneof`> i've wlan0 and wlan1, so wlan0 is for home network, and wlan1 for external network, is there are good gui software for wireless that can run both of them?
[21:10] <aouaou> listening to: Our Break by Poxy Music
[21:10] <Seveas> aouaou, no music scripts in here..
[21:10] <kostkon> !ot | aouaou
[21:10] <javabean73> vik, to stop using a module add it to the blacklist (/etc/modprobe.d)
[21:10] <aouaou> hehehe nice to mention that, lets get in there
[21:11] <apocalypt> weq u sure u can't see it while u install ubuntu? may above the  text window? maybe there u can choose sda?
[21:11] <Beezie> Leoneof`, i dont know exactly what your intentions are but you should check out wicd
[21:11] <enherit> does Empathy in Jaunty support video chat?
[21:11] <ipatrol> How can I create a device-like file with special behaviors?
[21:11] <Leoneof`> Beezie: wicd can work for one wireless, i want for two wireless
[21:11] <weq> apocalypt:  when I start the install in live mode I get a minimized version of the installer. And when I get to the partition step it is basically no info at all.
[21:11] <vik> javabean73, As I pretty new here, I do not know how to do that. btw, If it will be working, how could I switch back?
[21:11] <hdtdi> hello can someone tells me what does hdtdi@SocialEvil:~$ ssh <IP_ADDRESS> -p 2222
[21:11] <hdtdi> ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[21:11] <hdtdi>  means ?
[21:11] <Beezie> Leoneof`, sorry i assumed it could handle two
[21:12] <Seveas> ipatrol, depends on the behavior you want. Maybe a FIFO will do, maybe you'll have to write a kernel module :)
[21:12] <ipatrol> what's a FIFO?
[21:12] <apocalypt> start the install from CD not from live enviroment
[21:12] <mheg> is there any way to remove all hardlinks to a certain file if I delete one?
[21:12] <Seveas> ipatrol, a file that behaves like a pipe
[21:12] <Leoneof`> Beezie: if you know any software can handle two wireless, just let me know please ^_^
[21:12] <weq> apocalypt: doesn't matter where I start it from, still shows the same information
[21:13] <tsimpson> hdtdi: ssh is a tool to remotely login to another system, that commands attempts to connect to the IP on port 2222 and login with the user "hdtdi"
[21:13] <Seveas> ipatrol, what is it you want the file to behave like?
[21:13] <Beezie> Leoneof`, np im curious myself :)
[21:13] <weq> apocalypt: but just to do exactly what u say gimmie a minute.
[21:13] <tsimpson> hdtdi: the error is probably due to the remote server rejecting your authentication
[21:13] <Seveas> hdtdi, it means whatever listens on port 2222 there closes the connection before you have authenticated yourself. Are you sure it is an SSHD that is listening there?
[21:14] <javabean73> vik, easiest way is to open /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf with a text-editor and add a line 'blacklist rt73usb' (without quotes)
[21:14] <hdtdi> Seveas, the deal is that i have vista with virtualbox and i think i was manage to redirect port 2222 from vista to port 22 on ubuntu..
[21:15] <apocalypt> try it weq. start from cd directly the install. at the point partitioning choose manually. look everywhere for the free harddrive. maybe it isn't labled as sda
[21:15] <vik> javabean73, how should I start using ndiswrapper driver?
[21:15] <caper> hello, was wondering if anyone can give me insight on why my unbuntu installation is failing.  acer aspire m5641 tower.  Mouse is not functional during installation (tried 4 different mice) and then I have to click forward but can't.  And at that point keyboard seems non-responsive.
[21:15] <weq-> it is the only 2 disks I have in my pc atm. And sdb has the ntfs partitions.
[21:16] <javabean73> vik, sorry have no experience with ndiswrapper
[21:16] <Seveas> caper, could be a busted CD.
[21:16] <caper> i've downloaded and burned a few times
[21:16] <apocalypt> weq-: if it doesn't work try to connect the new HDD to the SATA 1 and the Windows to SATA2
[21:17] <weq> I suspect that it might the onboard controller trolling ubuntu installer
[21:17] <weq> it's a nforce something something chipset.
[21:17] <_CommandeR_> caper, do you have usb legancy enabled?
[21:17] <unimatrix> does anyone know how the transfer speed with bittorrent is determined? (please /msg me, i realize this is offtopic)
[21:17] <apocalypt> weq yeah the controller could be an issue
[21:18] <caper> _CommandeR_, usb legacy support is enabled
[21:18] <apocalypt> weq drives running in single mode?
[21:18] <vik> javabean73, ok, where should I add a line to that file, It has lots of lines there?
[21:18] <ipatrol_> Say I wanted to create a file called /dev/randbool that upon reading gives an arbritrary number of bites from the program /bin/randbool
[21:18] <weq> apocalypt: sorry now I remember why I can't see any disks at all. I had enabled nodmraid thingy.
[21:18] <weq> yeah the disks aren't raided or anything.
[21:19] <weq> no hw raid. they aren't plugged into the sil3132 controller.
[21:19] <thiblahute> Hi, I have this notebook, http://www.archos.com/products/nb/archos_10/index.html?country=fr&lang=fr which has an integrated webcam, but I can't get it workin. I pasted various ls(usb-...) here http://pastebin.com/m43665284
[21:19] <Tiders> Is there a vent client for ubuntu
[21:19] <weq> Tiders: ventrilo.com I guess.
[21:19] <_CommandeR_> caper, and still the same, mouse problems etc. Are you sure they work as they should in other OS that its not a hardware problem ?
[21:19] <thiblahute> But it actually dosn't help me. ANyone can help me please?
[21:19] <ipatrol_> what's a .sock file?
[21:19] <Tiders> weq, I didnt see one there
[21:19] <ZykoticK9> Tiders, no native vent - push to talk doesn't work with Vent/wine FYI
[21:19] <javabean73> vik, I would put it at the end but doesn't really matter. after this you should reboot
[21:19] <^workman^> Tiders: try http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php
[21:19] <apocalypt> weq: where u did u enable that function?
[21:19] <apocalypt> bios?
[21:20] <vik> javabean73, thanks
[21:20] <weq> f6 when the cd asks if I wanna install
[21:20] <apocalypt> ok
[21:20] <caper> the mice work fine.  win7 is installed on it and mouse works in that and works on other computers.
[21:20] <weq> now I'm regular install mode no extra thingy
[21:20] <javabean73> vik, np :)
[21:20] <apocalypt> yeah weq that should work
[21:20] <Beezie> Leoneof`, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=943269
[21:20] <apocalypt> that was a point i missed weq hehehe
[21:20] <weq> and now it wants me to install to nvidia_bbhehccf 148,7GB striped.
[21:20] <ipatrol_> what's a .sock file?
[21:20] <_CommandeR_> caper, does the keyboard when launching the cd from boot?
[21:21] <Seveas> ipatrol_, /dev/urandom may be what u need here :)
[21:21] <weq> I choose manual
[21:21] <ipatrol_> Seveas: The question was hypothetical
[21:21] <weq> and it sets up my discs as /dev/mapper/nvidia... etc
[21:21] <hdtdi> Seveas, i got it .. i got the wrong port in the ssh config :) but now i manage to connect thanks
[21:21] <_CommandeR_> caper, Does the keyboard work during boot of the cd. *
[21:21] <caper> _CommandeR_, the keyboard initially works as i'm able to select install ubuntu
[21:21] <weq> I thought that would it would LVM my disks and use both?
[21:21] <ipatrol_> I just want to make a dev-style file
[21:22] <_CommandeR_> caper, does it work smooth etc, no hitches or not responding to keystrokes ?
[21:22] <weq> or can I safely choose the free space there without it touch the filesystem om /dev/mapper/nvidia_bbhehccf1?
[21:22] <KismetGFX> hey i got d/c'd sry if this is a repeat. non system disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready upon reboot after a fresh ubuntu install. i assume this is related to grub but can't figure out how to fix it. pls help
[21:23] <_CommandeR_> caper, go down the menu and check the cd for issues.
[21:23] <apocalypt> under manually partitioning if there is a free disk u can choose this disk for creating the swap and the ext4 partition
[21:23] <caper> _CommandeR_, no hitches but really only doing down arrow and enter and such.  If I attempt to boot off the cd into the temp ubuntu installation the keyboard and mouse won't work there.  But, it's not frozen since clock works and after a min a h/w driver message comes up
[21:23] <weq> they aren't labeled as disks normally are /dev/sdX etc.
[21:23] <weq> they are labeled as /dev/mapper/nvidia_bbhehcfX
[21:24] <apocalypt> but there are two?
[21:24] <ipatrol_> what happens if you try to open /dev/zero ?
[21:24] <caper> _CommandeR_, going through disc integrity now.
[21:25] <weq> /dev/mapper/nvidia_bbhehcf is listed as a parent for the nvidia_bbhehcf1,5,6
[21:25] <_CommandeR_> caper, ok
[21:25] <weq> 1 = windows, 5 ext I selected mounted as /, and 6 as swap.
[21:25] <weq> trying this just to see what happends. been struggling with this for days now.
[21:25] <apocalypt> make swap before. i could better
[21:26] <apocalypt> swap on 5 and ext on 6
[21:26] <CyberGabber> caper: Does mouse / keyboard fully function when booted from 'LIVE'-cd option?
[21:26] <weq> I don't understand why ubuntu are so determined to use the /dev/mapper instead of regular /dev/sda
[21:26] <caper> _CommandeR_, no errors found but it says press any key to reboot and keyboard non functional.
[21:26] <_CommandeR_> caper, odd
[21:27] <weq> wonering how grub will act with the /dev/mapper and /boot etc.
[21:27] <weq> wondering*
[21:27] <caper> CyberGabber, mouse/keyboard are non functional if I boot to "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer"
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> caper: try adding the boot option: i8042.reset
[21:28] <caper> ActionParsnip, hmm how would I go about doing that?
[21:28] <weq> apocalypt: earlier I tried installed ubuntu striped on my 2x74GB and with the "use the entire disk" option and then grub failed on boot with error 2.
[21:29] <caper> nm, trying
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | caper

[21:29] <weq> are there anyway to disable lvm for the ubuntu 9.10 installer?
[21:29] <CyberGabber> caper: Maybe this could put you in the right<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:30] <apocalypt> grub must be written in first 1024 sectors of a disk i guess
[21:30] <weq> so why does it insist the raid my discs? I don't have an option to NOT use that.
[21:31] <ActionParsnip> weq: is raid enabled in the BIOS?
[21:31] <apocalypt> weq in bios?
[21:31] <caper> ActionParsenip adding that option didn't work
[21:31] <weq> ActionParsnip: no.
[21:31] <weq> apocalypt: no
[21:31] <apocalypt> maybe u should use jbod
[21:31] <weq> there is no hw raidø.
[21:31] <weq> -ø
[21:32] <apocalypt> weq just a normal sata controller?
[21:32] <weq> abit aw8d I think.
[21:32] <weq> just regular onboard sata controller they are connected to now.
[21:32] <Schroeder__> Does anyone have any information regarding setting higher resolutions of displays than is shown in display prefs ?
[21:32] <weq> I got 6 sata ports, 4 regular and 2 that are connected to the raid controller. they are not connected to either of the ports.
[21:33] <apocalypt> weq maybe that is the crux. i guess has issues with onboard controller. maybe
[21:33] <apocalypt> +Ubuntu
[21:33] <ZykoticK9> Schroeder__, have you installed the driver for your graphics card?  nvidia / ati / etc...
[21:33] <weq> so anyone to disable lvm under install? to see if the installer will stop the /dev/mapper crap?
[21:33] <Schroeder__> ZykoticK9: Yes
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> weq: maybe its a boot option....
[21:33] <weq> just done installing ubuntu now. Let's see after a boot if fucked up the other disk or nothing.
[21:34] <weq> I don't have any use for lvm at all on this system.
[21:34] <Schroeder__> ZykoticK9: When I try to open my Catalyst Control Center
[21:34] <Schroeder__> As administrative
[21:34] <apocalypt> weq if grub doesn't see the windows harddrive try update-grub

[21:35] <weq> error 15 on grub.
[21:35] <blahblah_x> hey guys
[21:35] <apocalypt> weq just a moment
[21:35] <Schroeder__> ZykoticK9: Is it misplaced or something ?
[21:35] <blahblah_x> is there a way to install the netbook ubuntu environment into a normal install?
[21:35] <weq> menu.lst never got built?
[21:35] <blahblah_x> like with a metapackage?
[21:36] <ZykoticK9> Schroeder__, sorry man i'm NO help with ATI (I will ONLY use Nvidia gfx cards) -- i won't even buy another AMD due to their watermarking ATI drivers on older systems (why did AMD have to buy ATI?)
[21:36] <apocalypt> weq grub2 doesn't have a menu.lst
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: sudo apt-get install netbook-launcher
[21:36] <weq> it says grub 1.5 in the boot.
[21:36] <apocalypt> ok
[21:36] <blahblah_x> ActionParsnip: thank you
[21:36] <weq> grub loading stage1.5
[21:36] <apocalypt> Ubuntu 9.10?
[21:36] <weq> yeah
[21:36] <Schroeder__> ZykoticK9: I understand. I'm angry with ATI's lack of support for Linux. But do you know another way for me to run the contorl centre, by chance ?
[21:37] <Schroeder__> Is there a way in Terminal ?
[21:37] <apocalypt> Ubuntu 9.10 comes with Grub2
[21:37] <blahblah_x> ActionParsnip: thats it? theres no special packages in the netbook install?
[21:37] <apocalypt> look for /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[21:37] <Seveas> apocalypt, but if you upgrade from 9.04 or earlier, grub will not be upgraded
[21:37] <weq> apocalypt: I don't lie :( booting into live then.
[21:37] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: sorry
[21:37] <ZykoticK9> Schroeder__, sorry i don't...  I haven't used ATI for YEARS (there weren't even Catalyst drivers at the time)
[21:37] <weq> Seveas: clean install, no upgrade.
[21:37] <albertolempira> hey guys, i'm looking for a stream directory browser app like streamtuner, do somebody know one? thanks in advance
[21:37] <Schroeder__> No worries. Sigh
[21:37] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix
[21:37] <apocalypt> yeah Seveas but weq did a clean install
[21:38] <Seveas> apocalypt, well then just ignore me :)
[21:38] <apocalypt> Seveas i would never do this
[21:38] <apocalypt> :)
[21:38] <blahblah_x> ActionParsnip: and i should do this to ubuntu, not xubuntu?
[21:38] <apocalypt> weq is your controller listet in ubuntu hardwarelist?
[21:38] <weq> not sure. need to find the list first then.
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: either is fine, the remix will replace the xfce with the launcher
[21:40] <Teleken> so more questions about 4GB -> I have ubuntu 9 x64 installed.  Bios sees 4GB, Windows sees 4GB, Ubuntu sees 3.2GB.  I have no bios option to remap the memory, so what other options do I have for ubuntu?
[21:40] <blahblah_x> ActionParsnip: so the launcher is gnome. thank you for your help!
[21:40] <discopatrick> how would you recommend browsing the contents of ubuntu server from a mac? all i can see is samba, but that's for windows
[21:41] <apocalypt> weq https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: np man
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> blahblah_x: xubuntu uses gtk like gnome
[21:42] <weq> it's not listed no.
[21:42] <blahblah_x> ActionParsnip: yup, i know. but they use different librriaes on top of gtk
[21:42] <Seveas> Teleken, look in dmesg for clues, use google to expand those clues. I've hear of the problem before and it is fixable.Just don't remember how exactly as I've never seen it personally.
[21:42] <apocalypt> Nvidia nforce4 sata controller?
[21:42] <discopatrick> i can use ssh no problem, but i was wondering if there was a gui for it
[21:43] <SliMM> hello
[21:43] <adam___> ive added a directory to my path so if im my user the command works, if im root the command works but if i sudo command it can't find it.  where else do i need to add the path?
[21:43] <thrope> are default options for mkfs.ext4 ok or any thing I should add? just trying it out for the first time
[21:43] <weq> apocalypt: it claims to be nvidia atleast not sure it is nforce4 though.
[21:43] <SliMM> what would you suggest to do when the bootloader won't boot ubuntu anymore after a failed suspend?
[21:43] <Seveas> adam___, sudo always resets the path for security reasons.
[21:44] <jagjr> Hi
[21:44] <ZykoticK9> Teleken, are you sure you're using 64bit?  in a terminal what does "uname -m" output?
[21:44] <adam___> Seveas: oh...
[21:44] <jagjr> my mysql wont start
[21:44] <Seveas> SliMM, at which point does it give up?
[21:44] <SliMM> Seveas: when selecting ubuntu from the bootloader menu
[21:45] <Schroeder__> Can someone help me get my resolution from 1440x900 to 1920x1080 ? Please ?
[21:45] <jagjr> i get this error http://pastebin.com/m66755f97
[21:45] <Schroeder__> Even in ATI's menu, it won't go past 1440x900
[21:45] <jagjr> Can someone help me :)
[21:45] <Seveas> SliMM, it's probably trying to restore. You can stop it from doing that by booting from a livecd and reformatting your swap partition (where it now stores the suspended system). This will wipe the stored status though, so it'll be like a fresh boot.
[21:46] <SliMM> Seveas: I'll try that, thanks
[21:46] <jagjr> Can someone help me fix mysql because it isnt working. ?
[21:46] <jagjr> this is the error i get http://pastebin.com/m66755f97
[21:47] <apocalypt> jagjr: was there another mysql server on this machine before?
[21:47] <jagjr> Yes, the mysql was broken so i used sudo apt-get remove mysql*
[21:47] <Seveas> jagjr, err, you can't run mysql 5.0 with 5.1 datafiles. You'll have to install 5.1
[21:48] <Teleken> ZykoticK9: yes I'm sure (x86_64)
[21:48] <tazz> my / partition is on ext4 filesystem. I would like to extend it. Is it possible? Because i cant unmount / So i will have to use a live cd correct ?
[21:48] <jagjr> how do i sort it out then?
[21:48] <Flannel> tazz: Correct
[21:49] <Seveas> jagjr, also, more detailed information lives in /var/log/mysql.err, pastebin that
[21:49] <ZykoticK9> Teleken, that doesn't make much sense - 3.2 is the max for 32bit (with PAU or PAE or whatever it's called) - my 4G shows completely when i use the "free" command on my 64bit?!
[21:49] <tazz> Flannel, also I have kubuntu 9.04 live cd. And i cant fined partitonmanafer or gparted.
[21:49] <tazz> any other way to do this ?
[21:49] <SliMM> Seveas: hmm, it seems that this computer has ubuntu installed with wubi...
[21:49] <ZykoticK9> Teleken, s/with/without
[21:49] <holmser> hmm... did zlib get changed in 9.10?
[21:49] <Ademan> will kvm still work on a p4? i know it won't have those nifty paravirtualization instructions, but will it work?
[21:49] <Seveas> SliMM, ugh ok.
[21:50] <holmser> I can't seem to get it to work
[21:50] <Teleken> ZykoticK9: hence why I'm here asking for help :)
[21:50] <Flannel> tazz: I don't know if 9.04 will be able to successfully handle ext4, you might want to grab 9.10
[21:50] <ZykoticK9> Ademan, kvm requires the virtualization in chip -- check out qemu or virtualbox
[21:50] <jagjr> Seveas , there is nothing in that file
[21:51] <SliMM> Seveas: no ideas in this case?
[21:51] <tazz> Flannel, my question is how do i resize my ext4 partition if i cant find gparted or partition manager?
[21:51] <AlexanderSupertr> hi guys
[21:51] <ZykoticK9> Ademan, to verify if you have virtu-in-chip you can use "cat /proc/cpuinfo" and for intel you should see vmx if it's present
[21:51] <Flannel> tazz: gparted should be on the liveCD, but even if it's not, you can install it.
[21:51] <Teleken> ZykoticK9: free-m shows 3135MB; /proc/meminfo shows 3210580KB; uname-m shows x86_64; /proc/cpuinfo shows 36bits physical address space
