[12:44] <ikonia> cypha: ok - so do that then
[12:44] <livcd> New installation of ubuntu
[12:45] <cypha> ikonia, I was concerned about the dependencies
[12:45] <ikonia> cypha: that won't get them
[12:45] <livcd> Can anyone help me ?
[12:45] <pastorn> arand: /var/log$ sudo du -sh * | grep M # gives me nothing :(
[12:45] <cypha> adding --purge removes the configurations too, so I guess that should help remove more
[12:45] <ikonia> cypha: it won't
[12:45] <cypha> ikonia, so how can I get them?
[12:45] <pastorn> ikonia: i don't know how else to explain it :(
[12:45] <ikonia> pastorn: who told you to do that
[12:46] <cypha> , the additional packages, that is
[12:46] <ikonia> pastorn: who told you to run that command
[12:46] <llutz_> cypha: learn to use aptitude, it's much better in removing deps etc.
[12:46] <Priyanka1> how to configure network in ubuntu through shell
[12:46] <Priyanka1> ??
[12:46] <cypha> or how can I get a list of recently installed packages, so I can remove them all manually?
[12:46] <pastorn> ikonia: arand told me to look for large files in /var/log
[12:46] <arand> pastorn: Try likewise in your home dir, /root ...
[12:46] <ikonia> pastorn: what command did I tell you to run
[12:47] <cypha> llutz_, yeah, that's what all the forums are saying, but i've already dug this whole for myself (but I know for future ref)
[12:47] <Priyanka1> :)
[12:47] <mollonado> cypha: dpkg --get-selections | less
[12:47] <Priyanka1> please help me I am new to linux ..
[12:47] <ikonia> pastorn: use the gui then
[12:47] <ikonia> Priyanka1: use the gui then
[12:48] <ikonia> pastorn: sorry, not you
[12:48] <arand> pastorn: But You might want to not grep for M if it happens to be files of GB...
[12:48] <pantteri> is the default installation of ssh server secure? or should i change something ?
[12:48] <mollonado> Priyanka1: man interfaces
[12:48] <ikonia> pastorn: cd to / then do "du -h | more" and look for large directories
[12:48] <livcd> By looking at google i can see this in a lot of bugtrackers...was this even fixed ?
[12:48] <iceroot> Priyanka1: sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>; sudo route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:48] <ikonia> pantteri: it's fine
[12:48] <llutz_> mollonado: that will print ALL installed packages, not only the recently installed
[12:48] <Priyanka1> ya ... /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts can we do like that
[12:48] <iceroot> Priyanka1: replace it with your ips
[12:48] <cypha> mollonado, that doesn't give any indication of chronological order
[12:48] <iceroot> Priyanka1: if you want dhcp just use "sudo dhclient eth0"
[12:49] <pastorn> ikonia: the list i get is extremely large...
[12:49] <Priyanka1> okay okay.. thanks.. iceroot
[12:49] <pantteri> ikonia: maybe i should install fail2ban or something?
[12:49] <ikonia> pastorn: yes, so go through it looking for large directories, then house keep them
[12:49] <ikonia> pantteri: why ?
[12:49] <arand> pastorn: pipe through sort -h
[12:49] <arand> pastorn: or do -sh * to only show one depth
[12:50] <pastorn> --max-depth=1 +
[12:50] <pastorn> ?
[12:51] <livcd> !sparse
[12:51] <livcd> None can help me ? :/
[12:52] <rcconf> hello
[12:52] <cypha> ok, so in conclusion, there is no way to find out what packages were 'most recently' install in order to remove them
[12:52] <rcconf> im trying to create an ad hoc network
[12:52] <_Narc_> Hello all. I tried to find a way to reorder GRUB2 entries, but what I found is not very clear. Can someone give me some clues on how to do this ? Thanks.
[12:52] <cypha> and I should reformat the drive
[12:52] <cypha> to reinstall
[12:52] <rcconf> but ad hoc is grayed out
[12:52] <llutz_> cypha: check logs /var/log/dpkg*  and /var/log/apt/*
[12:52] <rcconf> im using nm-applet
[12:53] <rcconf> hm
[12:53] <rcconf> do I need 2 computers with an wireless card?
[12:53] <Priyanka1> what is the difference between lilo and grub boot loader
[12:53] <Priyanka1> ?
[12:53] <llutz_> rcconf: how else do you want to establish an ad-hoc connection?
[12:54] <rcconf> llutz_: Im learning
[12:54] <livcd> Priyanka1: lilo sucks less
[12:54] <rcconf> llutz_: what I am trying to do is this: laptop connect to etherned.. ad hoc created... now from this computer I want to use wireless internet but I only have a pen wireless
[12:55] <rcconf> connected lol
[12:56] <llutz_> rcconf: so you have to create ad-hoc connection from pc to laptop and enable ip-forwarding/-masquerading on the laptop
[12:56] <kdg> Priy, lilo is older than grub
[12:56] <pastorn> arand: /usr is 5.3 GB
[12:56] <kdg> Priy, when you update lilo, you have to reinstlal it to the mbr
[12:56] <rcconf> llutz_: nm-applet detects ad hoc but it's grayed out
[12:57] <pastorn> /usr/lib 1.7 GB, /usr/share 1.9 GB
[12:57] <pastorn> is this normal?
[12:57] <ikonia> pastorn: depends what you have installed
[12:58] <pastorn> ikonia: some dev tools, most recently git with -doc and -*something else that was mentioned in Pro Git*
[12:58] <ikonia> pastorn: that seems large, but not impossible
[12:59] <rcconf> llutz_: "enable ip-forwarding/-masquerading"
[12:59] <rcconf> what is that
[12:59] <llutz_> rcconf: "tell the laptop to forward network-traffic from/to your other computer"
[13:00] <llutz_> !ics | rcconf read this to get an idea
[13:00] <rcconf> llutz_: connect is set to shared
[13:00] <rcconf> connection
[13:00] <llutz_> rcconf: ah, its a windows-laptop?
[13:00] <pastorn> ikonia: http://codepad.org/QUXglVS9 <-- my space wasters...
[13:01] <livcd> btrfs still requires separe /boot partition that is why im getting sparse file not allowed error ?
[13:01] <ikonia> pastorn: that doesn't add up to 1.7 gb
[13:01] <rcconf> llutz_: ubuntu to ubuntu
[13:01] <cypha> llutz_, so basically I installed A LOT of crap I can't use from the CL. what would you do at this point, reformat?
[13:01] <pastorn> ikonia: notice the "..."
[13:01] <cypha> like it's not practical for me to uninstall each and everything there
[13:01] <ikonia> pastorn: no, I don't see any .....
[13:02] <llutz_> cypha: depends on how long the new setup would take
[13:02] <pastorn> ikonia: line 2 and 33
[13:02] <livcd> thanks for no answer
[13:02] <ikonia> pastorn: why are you posting this to me then ?
[13:02] <ikonia> livcd: welcome
[13:02] <cypha> ok, screw it, i'm reformatting. i can't believe there's no straightforward way of removing it
[13:03] <basilfaulty> any idea how to fix " xserver-xorg-core (2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1) breaks fglrx (<= 2:8.801-0ubuntu2) and is installed." trying to install cat10.10 on Ubuntu natty
[13:03] <livcd> ikonia: i am enjoying this ride
[13:03] <kdg> Cso you installed all the docs?  no need to reformat over that
[13:03] <pastorn> ikonia: i thought i shouldn't burden you with a paste of all 2092 lines from listing the contents of /usr/lib
[13:03] <llutz_> cypha: there is no easy way to do it, easiest is to use aptitude from start, but even that won't help in all situations
[13:03] <ikonia> pastorn: so why give me anything
[13:03] <cypha> hmm, good to know
[13:04] <pastorn> i uninstalled plt-scheme and my monster is back... could i perhaps query the kernel for any file handles with writing access?
[13:04] <pastorn> (i freed up 120 MB)
[13:04] <ikonia> pastorn: query the kernel....come on
[13:05] <pastorn> ikonia: i dunno, maybe htop has some cool features
[13:05] <ikonia> pastorn: just look for the big files and what's taking up the space, that will tell you hopefully what's eating the space
[13:05] <ikonia> or the big size directories
[13:07] <basilfaulty> "xserver-xorg-core (2:1.10.1-1ubuntu1) breaks fglrx (<= 2:8.801-0ubuntu2) and is installed." trying to install cat10.10 on Ubuntu natty.. how to fix?
[13:08] <bazhang> livcd, not with the more recent kernel it does not.
[13:08] <pastorn> ikonia: the problem is that my only big ones are /usr/lib and /usr/share
[13:08] <livcd> bazhang: what is recent kernel for you ?
[13:08] <ikonia> pastorn: ok - so look at what's taking up the space in there, look at the time stamps onthe files to see what's being added last to take up space
[13:08] <livcd> im on 2.6.38-8
[13:09] <bazhang> livcd, that's natty, correct?
[13:09] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:09] <livcd> bazhang: dunno :)
[13:10] <ikonia> livcd: what version of ubuntu are you running
[13:10] <kdg> pastorn, are you hurting for space that bad?
[13:10] <bazhang> livcd, not sure if it's natty (which is yours and mine) or the next releases. the changelogs on recent kernels has the feature list if I recall correctly.
[13:10] <pastorn> kdg: this in on /
[13:10] <rcconf> bah
[13:11] <rcconf> ad hoc
[13:11] <livcd> I dont know is there something like /path/to/hell/release file ?
[13:11] <kdg> pastorn, kk
[13:11] <ikonia> livcd: you don't know what release you installed or downloaded ?
[13:11] <pastorn> kdg: /home is safe, but i think that on / it could be nice to have some free space, also, when your down on 8.0KB free it's kind of annoying
[13:11] <ikonia> livcd: lsb_release -a will show you
[13:11] <Priyanka1> how to add a new user through shell in 11.04??
[13:11] <bazhang> livcd, lsb_release -a
[13:11] <pastorn> could this be the google chrome automagic updates going bananas?
[13:11] <livcd> ikonia:it was on CD somewhere in my room !
[13:11] <ikonia> Priyanka1: why not use the gui ?
[13:12] <livcd> 11.04 natty
[13:12] <basilfaulty> Priyanka1: does useradd still work?
[13:12] <Priyanka1> no .. I ts not adding it up
[13:12] <Priyanka1> :(
[13:12] <ikonia> not adding it up ?
[13:12] <ikonia> Priyanka1: is there a reason you're not using the guis ?
[13:12] <Priyanka1> yeah in ubuntu 11.04
[13:13] <ikonia> Priyanka1: "not adding it up" makes no sense as a description of the problem
[13:13] <ikonia> Priyanka1: and is there a reason you're not using the gui
[13:13] <livcd> Matt is mad
[13:13] <livcd> brb restarting
[13:13] <basilfaulty> I think you can do it through adding lines in the /etc/passwd file..
[13:13] <Priyanka1> because I don't know specific gui thg for that
[13:13] <ikonia> basilfaulty: no you don't
[13:13] <llutz_> Priyanka1: sudo adduser <username>
[13:14] <ikonia> ignore that
[13:14] <ikonia> Priyanka1: what is the command you're using with useradd"
[13:14] <ikonia> do not use that idea
[13:14] <Priyanka1> ya ya .. iam using useradd
[13:14] <Priyanka1> cmd
[13:14] <skiwithpete> llutz, thanks again for your help, got the script sorted and changed the menu icon in LXDE... all tucked away now.
[13:14] <basilfaulty> ikonia: it's just a home dir and a line in passwd?
[13:14] <ikonia> basilfaulty: no
[13:14] <basilfaulty> ...
[13:15] <llutz_> skiwithpete: happy chatting with mom then :)
[13:15] <skiwithpete> yeah, just finished that too
[13:15] <skiwithpete> cheers,
[13:15] <skiwithpete> gnight.
[13:17] <livcd> ikonia: bazhang Ok the sparse error still remains..it boots after few sec...but it is annoying...any idea how to fix it ?
[13:19] <livcd> no idea ?
[13:20] <pastorn> ikonia: i solved it!!
[13:20] <pastorn> iotop to the rescue, it was f****g flash
[13:21] <albacker> i just dist-upgraded and now whenever i fullscreen flash videos, everything freezes
[13:21] <pastorn> arand: thanks for helping :)
[13:21] <oCean> pastorn: calm down, the obfuscated swearing is also not welcome
[13:22] <bazhang> livcd, using btrfs with /boot ? no idea sorry
[13:23] <cypha> i created a short passwd when setting up ubuntu server, but now I'd like to change the password, so I type in passwd at the CL, and try changing the pw, essentially just changing the case. However, it is telling me the password is too short
[13:23] <cypha> how do I override this?
[13:24] <bazhang> cypha, use a longer one?
[13:24] <cypha> other than that
[13:25] <llutz_> cypha: read a lot about "pam" and why you dont want to do, what you want to do
[13:25] <knoppies> cypha, Im not sure how to prevent it from rejecting your password, but an obvious (but probably not feasible ) solution would be to re-install the OS. I do recommend you use a longer password though. I am not sure why it lets you use a really short one on install.
[13:25] <cypha> the ubuntu install is just for local testing
[13:26] <knoppies> cypha, can't you just use the old password? (that not feasible either?)
[13:26] <cypha> it's on a vbox
[13:27] <cypha> i can do all those things, just wondering if there was a legitimate way to change the pw to what I wanted
[13:27] <llutz_> cypha: there is, root could set short passwords
[13:28] <cypha> llutz_, GREAT,thanks
[13:29] <llutz_> cypha: it's still a bad idea. get used to some stuff, even when running it as a vm-toy
[13:31] <cypha> llutz_, actually, u're probably right since I'm setting up a server
[13:35] <alvinPH> i'm successful :D i've installed enlightenment desktop..
[13:36] <albacker> Is there any bug with plugin-container in 11.04 ? i did a dist upgrade yestarday and now everytime i full-screen a flash video it freezes.. anyone having the same problem?
[13:36] <alvinPH> where could i find the theme files in the file system?
[13:37] <gul> anybody using arch?
[13:38] <alvinPH> where re the theme files located in the file system?
[13:38] <OerHeks> gul, this is the ubuntu support irc, join #Arch for arch support.
[13:39] <gul> OerHeks: yes but there are many people using arch and are here........i even spoke to some...so just checking if there is any....  :)
[13:39] <alvinPH> oerKeks: where could I find the theme files in the file system?
[13:40] <alvinPH> oerHeks: where could I find the theme files in the file system?
[13:41] <alvinPH> anyone knowledgable here?
[13:42] <halvor> alvinPH, themes are in your home directory usually
[13:42] <halvor> alvinPH, open your home directory and press alt+h
[13:42] <OerHeks> alvinPH,  /usr/share/themes ?
[13:42] <halvor> alvinPH, ctrl+h sorry
[13:42] <alvinPH> ok thanks to you
[13:43] <halvor> and it is in .themes
[13:43] <OerHeks> halvor, it used to be in ~/.Themes
[13:43] <halvor> OerHeks, i don't know, right now it's ~/.themes
[13:44] <OerHeks> halvor, no it is not
[13:44] <gul> after installation arch drops to grub>     anybody know what to do next?
[13:44] <oCean> gul: stop the offtopic talk
[13:44] <halvor> OerHeks, on my natty it is
[13:45] <gul> oCean: come-on if you don't know then please don't disturb........ I know its ubuntu channel but there are many arch people here
[13:46] <oCean> gul: don't do it again, you have been told to join #arch channel
[13:46] <OerHeks> !ot | gul

[13:54] <ShArkY_> No you don't have to
[13:55] <djiefo> ShArkY_,  ok thx for the hint mate ;)
[13:55] <ShArkY_> Np:) You can place it anywhere you like (bottom,top, left, right)

[14:15] <BluesKaj> jakub, Downloads catalogue?
[14:15] <jakub> BluesKaj yeah, place where files automatically download from webbrowser
[14:16] <BluesKaj> !repository | jakub
[14:16] <OerHeks> jakub, use ' cd Download '
[14:17] <BluesKaj> jakub, the default folder for wen downloads is the Downloads folder in /home/user , if your browser is set up to download to that folder , of course

[14:18] <FloodBot1> jakub: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:18] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[14:18] <llutz_> little_king: hide from other users?
[14:19] <cypha> if i use wget, where does it save the file?
[14:19] <little_king> no, for me, but so i only go to it with the direct link
[14:19] <llutz_> cypha: actual dir
[14:19] <[lan3y]> cypha, the current dir your in
[14:19] <Tetracomm> How do I connect an Ubuntu computer directly to a Windows 7 computer for file transfer?
[14:19] <cypha> = current directory?
[14:19] <cypha> k
[14:19] <little_king> in a underdir with the name of the website
[14:20] <little_king> noone a idee?
[14:20] <little_king> *an idee
[14:21] <oCean> little_king: stop the nickspam please
[14:21] <jakub> BluesKaj
[14:22] <little_king> pls, how can i hide it complete
[14:22] <BluesKaj> jakub, yes?
[14:22] <RevSpecies116> I doubt you can, little_king
[14:22] <jakub> BluesKaj i'm in the right cataloge where my file is (via terminal ofcorz)
[14:23] <Emile31> hello
[14:23] <Castbound> yo, how are you guys? I have a compaq presario cq62 running ubuntu 10.04 everything runs smoothly but the fact that sound won't autoswitch from speakers to headphones when I plug my headphones, so this results in me hearing from the headphones and the speakers, which is not good
[14:23] <jakub> BluesKaj now:       ./PokerTH-0.8.3-linux-installer.bin   ?
[14:23] <little_king> mhh
[14:24] <Emile31> I am sorry to come and ask for a question that I know there are lot of topics on forums but I don't find any working solution
[14:24] <Tetracomm> Ok, how do I transfer gbs of files from my Ubuntu computer to the Windows 7 one? My USB drive is not big enough.
[14:24] <RevSpecies116> little_king don't worry - Windows nor MacOSX can do it either
[14:24] <jakub> BluesKaj how do i install the bin file?
[14:25] <jakub> install nameofbinfile.bin?
[14:25] <BluesKaj> jakub, yes , your installation will put a folder with PokerTH-0.8.3 or something similar in your /home/user file
[14:25] <Emile31> I have got bootmgr missing when starting my computer, I have Win 7 and I just installed Ubuntu, writing grub on /dev/Sda
[14:25] <BluesKaj> jakub, hit the enter key
[14:25] <Miles---> Hello guys
[14:25] <computerx> Can I set something so that files are always mode 0660?
[14:26] <computerx> In a certain folder
[14:26] <Emile31> while Ubuntu is on dev/sda5 and win7 on dev/sda2
[14:26] <little_king> and how can i encrypt a dic
[14:26] <little_king> ?
[14:26] <afein> Tetracomm, set up an ftp server if they're on the same network
[14:26] <Tetracomm> afein: How do I do that?
[14:27] <RevSpecies116> Emile31 - a LiveCD should work
[14:27] <cypha> how do i paste into the terminal? ctrl+shift+v doesn't work? and for that matter, how do i highlight?
[14:27] <BluesKaj> jakub, ./PokerTH-0.8.3-linux-installer.bin  in the terminal , then press the enter key to install
[14:27] <little_king> how can i reset the apt-get/source list?
[14:27] <computerx> Paste from the menu
[14:27] <computerx> Highlight/Copy with your mouse and menu
[14:28] <cypha> computerx, i'm on ubuntu server
[14:28] <LjL> jakub: why would you install that as a .bin? it's in the repositories!
[14:28] <LjL> !info pokerth | jakub
[14:28] <afein> Tetracomm: follow this guide http://goo.gl/kN3cG
[14:28] <RevSpecies116> Boot to the liveCD and you can access both HDD partitions and move files between them, Emile31
[14:28] <Emile31> RevSpecies116 : thanks for anwser, but if i reinstall grub... i ll not have win7 bootloader working ?
[14:29] <computerx> cypha: I don't think such thing as a clipboard exists outside of xwindows. You'd have to echo to a temp file..
[14:29] <Castbound> I have a compaq presario cq62 running ubuntu 10.04 everything runs smoothly but the fact that sound won't autoswitch from speakers to headphones when I plug my headphones, so this results in me hearing from the headphones and the speakers, which is not good
[14:29] <cypha> computerx, oh, interesting, k
[14:29] <RevSpecies116> Just use the liveCD to move the files - install not required
[14:30] <Emile31> ok
[14:30] <bingo> hello
[14:30] <Emile31> RevSpecies116 : would you know what hdX,X (for isntance) dev/sda5 would correspond to ?
[14:30] <balachmar> Hi, I want to stop the xserver on a remote machine (I'm logged into it using ssh). Because I need to install the nvidia dev drivers (OpenCL development) However, sudo stop gdm and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop don't do the trick Xserver is still running
[14:30] <theadmin> Emile31: hd(0,4) if I recall right
[14:31] <theadmin> balachmar: doh. sudo init 3
[14:31] <Emile31> ok
[14:31] <llutz_> !runlevel | theadmin
[14:31] <theadmin> llutz_: Oh, now that's weird. Okay, sorry
[14:31] <Emile31> well thank you i ll try to solve by using livecd
[14:31] <bingo> to emile31: dev/sda5 means device 5 partitions
[14:31] <theadmin> balachmar: Don't listen to me, I'm stupid :D
[14:32] <llutz_> balachmar: sudo service gdm stop                 should do*
[14:32] <RevSpecies116> Emile31 - you will know as soon as you look :-) Windows HDD will have 'program files' and other Microsoft folders, and your Linux HDD will have etc use and other folders
[14:32] <bingo> toemile31:what u want to do?
[14:32] <balachmar> llutz_ yeah I know, but it doesn't...
[14:32] <llutz_> theadmin: stupid? naaaa, this is ubuntu ;)
[14:32] <theadmin> llutz_: I'm an Arch user, so weird runlevel concepts aren't new to me ;)
[14:32] <computerx> Is there any way to force certain file permissions in a folder, either 0660 or make group always equal user?
[14:32] <rudra1> what is the default permission number for /var folder?
[14:33] <ZykoticK9> balachmar, try "sudo service gdm3 stop"
[14:33] <Emile31> bingo : I just want to know where I will have to install grub when using livecd according to my installation
[14:33] <computerx> rudra1, probably 0755
[14:33] <llutz_> don't arch-users have a home? i wonder why they're all  hanging around here... ;)
[14:33] <theadmin> Emile31: /dev/sda, GRUB is installed in MBR.
[14:33] <rcconf> llutz_:
[14:33] <theadmin> llutz_: I do so cause I'm <censored> bored
[14:33] <balachmar> @ZykoticK9: gdm3: unrecognized service
[14:33] <bingo> emile31: it will give u options of dev/sda....
[14:34] <th0r> computerx: folders always need to be executable (0770). and to set all the permissions within the folder and subfolder use chmod -R
[14:34] <BluesKaj> !pm | jakub
[14:34] <ZykoticK9> balachmar, sorry - that's what debian currently uses.  i have no idea then
[14:34] <Tetracomm> afein: Ok, thank you. I hope it works.
[14:34] <osse> I've just installed gnuplot from source. It's located in /usr/local/bin which is before /usr/bin in $PATH. Still, when I type gnuplot at the prompt the one in /usr/bin is started. 'which gnuplot' and 'whereis gnuplot' give different locations.What's going on here??
[14:34] <rcconf> llutz_: now the ad-hoc doesn't appear grayed out because I changed from WPA to WEP (dangerous I know) .. But still can't connect to it
[14:34] <Emile31> theadmin : yes so I told ubuntu to write grub on sda, so why ubuntu does not start ?
[14:34] <computerx> Yes th0r, but I want it to be automatic. It's a folder that various programs put files in...
[14:34] <rcconf> im using 10.42.43.* Ips
[14:34] <bingo> emile31:you want to dual boot or singe boot ?
[14:34] <balachmar> theadmin: does the init 3 still provide ssh access?
[14:34] <Emile31> dual
[14:35] <llutz_> computerx: you can try a combination of sticky bit and acls, there is no "per directory umask" unfortunately
[14:35] <computerx> Putting a cron bash script for it seems a bit of a hack to me
[14:35] <Emile31> I had win7 and mint before
[14:35] <theadmin> balachmar: As I said, don't listen to me
[14:35] <ZykoticK9> balachmar, is "sudo service gdm stop" doesn't work, you could manually kill the Xorg pid
[14:35] <Emile31> so i wanted to install ubuntu over mint
[14:35] <phrearch> hello
[14:35] <theadmin> balachmar: But do try "/etc/init/gdm stop"
[14:35] <Emile31> so i told ubuntu to write grub on sda
[14:35] <ZykoticK9> balachmar, s/is/if/
[14:35] <th0r> computerx: http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=en&source=hp&q=set+default+file+permissions&aq=f&aqi=g2g-v3&aql=&oq=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=9589d0f2bb20ed2d&biw=949&bih=567
[14:35] <balachmar> theadmin: that didn't work
[14:35] <theadmin> balachmar: I mean, without the .d
[14:35] <phrearch> i would like to know the dependencies of libwebkitgtk-1.0-0_1.3.13. i dont have ubuntu installed. is there any source where i can check the dependencies that ubuntu use for this package?
[14:36] <rcconf> im trying this ad-hoc for hours
[14:36] <bingo> emile31:first give free space in mint and then by guided partition u can install it .
[14:36] <anirudhr> phrearch: apt-cache showpkd
[14:36] <Emile31> before I load mint with win7bootloader which brought me to grub then I selected Mint
[14:36] <anirudhr> phrearch: apt-cache showpkg
[14:36] <theadmin> phrearch: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[14:36] <balachmar> theadmin without the .d?
[14:36] <Emile31> ok
[14:36] <theadmin> balachmar: Well, as in /etc/init, not /etc/init.d
[14:36] <anirudhr> phrearch: Oh wait, you don't have Ubuntu.
[14:36] <balachmar> theadmin aah I see
[14:36] <phrearch> anirudhr: yea :)
[14:36] <jakub> BluesKaj bash says: Acces denied, shal i do   sudo ./PokerTh ?
[14:36] <computerx> Thanks llutz_ and th0r, I'll read up on both
[14:36] <Tetracomm> afein: vsftpd is now installed and started. How do I access my files from the Windows 7 computer which is connected to the same router.
[14:37] <balachmar> theadmin: command not found... :)
[14:37] <RevSpecies116> phreach - launchpad should have that information :-)
[14:37] <Emile31> well thank you all, I try to do with live cd and i will come back if i don t find a way to solve that
[14:37] <anirudhr> phrearch: Why not just Google it up?
[14:37] <theadmin> balachmar: Well too bad, I'm all out of ideas except maybe "killall X"?
[14:37] <Emile31> thank you again, bye!
[14:37] <bingo> emile31:best of luck dude.....
[14:37] <RevSpecies116> Good luck Emile31
[14:37] <BluesKaj> jakub, yes
[14:38] <balachmar> theadmin: what about the init 3? Does that still give me ssh access?
[14:38] <phrearch> anirudhr: was looking already, but havent found it yet
[14:38] <An_Ony_Moose> Does the main GPG key for the ubuntu repositories change across versions?
[14:38] <anirudhr> phrearch: http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-11.04/ubuntu-main-i386/libwebkitgtk-1.0-0_1.3.13-0ubuntu2_i386.deb.html
[14:38] <theadmin> balachmar: As llutz_ mentioned, all runlevels are equal, thus X would still be running if you switch to rl3
[14:38] <ikonia> phrearch: what OS are you using
[14:38] <jakub> BluesKaj sudo ./PokerTh-0.8.......
[14:38] <jakub> commans not found
[14:39] <phrearch> ikonia: archlinux. trying to install a modified webkit binary
[14:39] <phrearch> anirudhr: thanks!
[14:39] <ikonia> phrearch: ok, then I suggest you ask in #archlinux
[14:39] <rcconf> !adhoc
[14:39] <anirudhr> phrearch: No problem. :)
[14:39] <balachmar> theadmin: aah, I missed that (didn't include my name...)
[14:39] <SimeonK> hi, are there any differences between pendrivelinux ubuntu & the normal ubuntu?
[14:39] <ikonia> phrearch: (unless I've missunderstood the question)
[14:40] <phrearch> ikonia: well, the deb works on ubuntu obviously. im trying to get the right libs that ubuntu uses as well
[14:40] <klown> I just installed 11.04 on my desktop, I'm using a 32inch tv as my monitor, whichever resolution I use, the desktop goes past the screen boarders, how can I fix this?
[14:40] <theadmin> balachmar: Happens :)
[14:41] <ikonia> phrearch: you can download the source package and the dependencies are in the description file
[14:41] <balachmar> theadmin: even kill (-9) doesn't work!
[14:41] <phrearch> libglib seems to be the source of evil on my system
[14:41] <theadmin> phrearch: Again, just navigate to http://packages.ubuntu.com and do a search
[14:41] <RevSpecies116> klown - the problem could be the TV :-)
[14:41] <theadmin> balachmar: Okay, now that's totally awkward.
[14:41] <Castbound> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1436050 just in case someone is insterested
[14:41] <computerx> So the umask is a "not and" bitmask...
[14:42] <theadmin> balachmar: Probably a bug in the installer, lol
[14:42] <phrearch> theadmin: ok will do. thanks
[14:42] <computerx> Sooo, a umask of 07 will mean o-rwx?
[14:42] <klown> RevSpecies116, I've installed ubuntu on this, and fixed it before, I just cant recall how.
[14:43] <klown> I want to say it was the DPI settings in xorg.conf, but I cannot remember exactly how to do it.
[14:43] <llutz_> computerx: yes
[14:43] <computerx> k, I think I get it, thanks :)
[14:43] <llutz_> computerx: but you can't set it per directory
[14:44] <ZykoticK9> computerx, umask is subtracted from default permission
[14:44] <computerx> The main program that's causing the issue is the transmission daemon, which I can set a umask in the config
[14:44] <RevSpecies116> Ahhh, klown, I think the conf files are locked down in NN to more degrees than before...
[14:44] <balachmar> llutz_: You got any idea on how to get rid of Xorg when even kill (-9) doesn't work?
[14:45] <llutz_> balachmar: what OS/distro?
[14:45] <balachmar> llutz_ Ubuntu 11.04
[14:45] <BluesKaj> jakemp, go to the file location right click on it , choose properties , click "make executable ", then try again
[14:46] <llutz_> balachmar: sudo pkill Xorg
[14:46] <klown> RevSpecies116, It would appear so, because my xorg.conf only has one line in it.
[14:46] <theadmin> Ubuntu without xorg is something ridiculous tbh [/offtopic]
[14:46] <BluesKaj> sorry jakemp , wrong guy
[14:47] <tsnovo> someone knows about a good web chat?
[14:47] <balachmar> llutz_ Doesn't work :S
[14:47] <llutz_> balachmar: you're sure Xorg still runs?
[14:47] <theadmin> tsnovo: Sorry, is offtopic. However if you're looking for a web-based IRC client I suggest Mibbit
[14:47] <[lan3y]> i've just had a go at packaging a program its worked, but im not sure if i done it right, where should i seek help? :)
[14:48] <balachmar> llutz_  1195 root      20   0  118m  18m  11m D    0  0.5   0:00.02 Xorg and the nvidia installer still complains
[14:48] <RevSpecies116> Mibbit doesn't connect to freenode
[14:48] <llutz_> RevSpecies116: it does
[14:48] <theadmin> llutz_: Nay, Freenode's banned it a long time ago
[14:49] <ule> freenode has they own webchat
[14:49] <llutz_> theadmin: really? i stand corrected then, sry
[14:50] <theadmin> llutz_: np
[14:50] <ZykoticK9> balachmar, "sudo kill -9 1195"
[14:50] <balachmar> ZykoticK9: already tried that :) doesn't work...
[14:50] <RevSpecies116> llutz - no worries :-)
[14:50] <little_king> how can i remove  libvlccore4 without apt-get
[14:50] <theadmin> little_king: dpkg -r ...?
[14:51] <BlouBlou> any audio-editor? and please, not audicity :P
[14:51] <BlouBlou> an advanced one if possible
[14:51] <theadmin> BlouBlou: gHex xD Okay, kidding, kidding.
[14:51] <RevSpecies116> little_king - synaptic? Aptitude?
[14:52] <little_king> ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
[14:52] <little_king> the software manager doesn't work for me
[14:53] <BlouBlou> theadmin: do you know any good one?
[14:53] <BluesKaj> BlouBlou, ardour
[14:53] <bazhang> BlouBlou, rosegarden? ardour?
[14:53] <theadmin> BlouBlou: I'd take a look at http://alternativeto.net/software/audacity/?platform=linux
[14:54] <RevSpecies116> Why, little_king, did you remove them or not using Ubuntu?
[14:54] <BlouBlou> BluesKaj, bazhang: yeah, ardour seems fine :)
[14:54] <little_king> i use ubutnu 11.04 but there is an error in the apt-get, becouse vlc
[14:54] <paolo> paul
[14:55] <melvinz> Is this the source code of Silverlight 4? http://silverlight.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/61620#779543
[14:55] <frederik> hi. :) i try to install libtrash. i used apt-get install for installation and added "export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libtrash.so.1.8" and  "alias trashon=”export TRASH_OFF=NO”
[14:55] <frederik> alias trashoff=”export TRASH_OFF=YES” to my /etc/profile file but it still dont work. even the aliases dont work. any advise?
[14:55] <balachmar> Does anybody then maybe know how to prevent Xorg from starting? Then I will just reboot the system.
[14:55] <BlouBlou> BluesKaj, bazhang: jackd2 is asking if I want to enable the real-time priority, what should I do? yes or no?
[14:55] <RevSpecies116> Don't you want to resolve that vlc issue, little_king?
[14:55] <llutz_> !text | balachmar
[14:55] <robin0800> little_king, perhaps you should fix that first
[14:56] <bazhang> BlouBlou, depends what you want to do
[14:56] <balachmar> llutz_ ok thanks
[14:56] <BlouBlou> bazhang: just editing few audio-files for school
[14:56] <bazhang> BlouBlou, then no
[14:56] <skione> Hi, I need to install an older version of tomcat (5.5) but it doesn't seem to work (i.e. apt-get install tomcat5.5), is there a way to install older packages?
[14:57] <BlouBlou> bazhang: okay thanks
[14:57] <melvinz> I'd like to see Silverlight on Ubuntu too, closed or open source, so that I can upload to Skydrive... Is this the source code of Silverlight? http://silverlight.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/61620#779543
[14:57] <BluesKaj> !moonlight | melvinz
[14:58] <melvinz> Alright, thanks, I'll try that.
[14:59] <melvinz> Is it the same as installing Moonlight from the go-mono site? I've tried that but it doesn't work...
[14:59] <theadmin> melvinz: Basically not. The repositories are prefered ways of installing software on any Linux-like OS, except maybe Slackware
[15:02] <frederik> hi. :) i try to install libtrash. i used apt-get install for installation and added "export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libtrash.so.2.4" and "alias trashon=”export TRASH_OFF=NO”
[15:02] <frederik> alias trashoff=”export TRASH_OFF=YES” to my /etc/profile file but it still dont work. even the aliases dont work. any advise?
[15:03] <An_Ony_Moose> I'm trying to upgrade at, but it doesn't start or stop. I looked at the prerm, and followed it down, but it seems that `stop atd' does nothing, just hangs there. How do I go about upgrading at?
[15:03] <BluesKaj> theadmin, there's a rumour one can run netflix on linux with moonlight ..it's not the case, so he thought he could use silverlight source code on ubuntu
[15:03] <theadmin> BluesKaj: Ah, I see.
[15:04] <An_Ony_Moose> (the same goes for start atd)
[15:04] <theadmin> BluesKaj: Except I don't actually know what Silverlight/Moonlight are.
[15:04] <abbavanisankar> Is there any operating system faster than ubuntu?
[15:05] <bazhang> abbavanisankar, why
[15:05] <th0r> abbavanisankar: A cray
[15:05] <abbavanisankar> Call me boni
[15:05] <bazhang> abbavanisankar, what?
[15:05] <abbavanisankar> Its because Ubuntu is damn slow on my comp.
[15:05] <BluesKaj> it's a web based graphics layer/player for browsers pushed by ms
[15:05] <RevSpecies116> Abbavanisankar - TinyCore Linux
[15:06] <BluesKaj> theadmin, ^
[15:06] <llutz_> abbavanisankar: MSDOS
[15:06] <th0r> abbavanisankar: then the question should be is there any computer faster than mine?
[15:06] <abbavanisankar> thanx Rev
[15:06] <abbavanisankar> But does it offer good graphics
[15:06] <RevSpecies116> Abbavanisankar - it runs in 10MB :-)
[15:07] <bazhang> abbavanisankar, thats not on topic for here
[15:07] <abbavanisankar> ??! 10 MB?
[15:07] <abbavanisankar> Any way thnx rev...
[15:08] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[15:08] <RevSpecies116> No troubles abbavanisankar :-)
[15:08] <RevSpecies116> And yes - Ten MB's
[15:08] <OY1R> Q: why is ubuntu's document(pdf) viewer so damn slow ?
[15:09] <OY1R> takes ages to load a pdf
[15:09] <OY1R> or rather how can i speed it up ??
[15:09] <RevSpecies116> OY1R - perhaps another PDF reader from the repo's?
[15:10] <skione> is there some reason why the jaunty repo is coming up 404?
[15:10] <llutz_> !eol | skione its not supported anymore
[15:10] <skione> right but hardy is there
[15:11] <llutz_> skione: hardy is LTS
[15:11] <skione> and that is older
[15:11] <RevSpecies116> HH is an LTS
[15:11] <abbavanisankar> Hey rev, Can u name the distribution again pls?
[15:11] <bazhang> skione, which is LTS
[15:11] <RevSpecies116> TinyCore Linux
[15:11] <bazhang> !ot | abbavanisankar
[15:11] <Tetracomm> I downloaded and used Wubi to install the latest Ubuntu yesterday on my Compaq Presario CQ5715, and at first Ubuntu booted mostly but didn't respond, I restarted last night and it worked, and now it won't boot again this morning. Windows 7 has been fine, though. Could someone please help me?
[15:11] <abbavanisankar> thnx
[15:11] <llutz_> skione: and LT stands for "Long Term"
[15:12] <theadmin> Tetracomm: WUBI is your problem mostly, normal installs work better
[15:12] <skione> thanks, all the instructions about install 1.5 tell me to go back to jaunty
[15:12] <llutz_> skione: install 1.5 of waht?
[15:12] <llutz_> what
[15:12] <RevSpecies116> 1.5?
[15:13] <An_Ony_Moose> I have a problem with at, it needs to be upgraded but trying to start/stop atd just hangs, so the prerm script never finishes. What can I do?
[15:13] <Tetracomm> theadmin: I want to use the normal install but this computer has only one partition and I won't be able to reinstall Windows 7, also...that same version of Ubuntu (11.11 I think) won't boot from the livecd either.
[15:13] <theadmin> Tetracomm: No problem to resize the Windows partition :)
[15:13] <skione> java 1.5 sorry
[15:14] <skione> and tomcat 5.5
[15:14] <theadmin> Tetracomm: As for the LiveCD, that's quite odd.
[15:14] <skione> it looks like they are in the hardy repo
[15:15] <html_inprogress> how do i mount a usb drive in vurtualbox ?
[15:15] <Tetracomm> theadmin: I resized the Windows partition yesterday and totally ruined Windows 7, I could not install nor uninstall software,and there was other weird behaviour. I had to run system restore to reset everything to factory default. I just got this computer yesterday and really need to get Ubuntu up and runnning. :)
[15:15] <LekeFly> How do i boot into command line?
[15:15] <bazhang> html_inprogress, which version of vbox
[15:15] <bazhang> !nox | LekeFly
[15:17] <html_inprogress> vurtual ose (64 bit is what im running
[15:18] <winterdj> how can I remove a PPA repository from apt?

[15:24] <An_Ony_Moose> oh right
[15:24] <djiefo> Hi, whats the best mp3 player in linux? I want something close of winamp, that easy to manage playlist and put skins?
[15:24] <krw> bazhang: sorry
[15:24] <bazhang> djiefo, no best, audacious is close to winamp though
[15:24] <BluesKaj> krw open system /admin / additional drivers , choose the recommended driver and install, then you'll have to reboot.
[15:25] <tomek_> how can i get root priviledges?
[15:25] <bazhang> tomek_, to do what
[15:25] <krw> BluesKaj: i can not move my cursor
[15:25] <tomek_> baz:to login into root account
[15:25] <krw> BluesKaj: how can i do it from terminal ?
[15:25] <djiefo> bazhang,  thx mate, will try it
[15:25] <BluesKaj> krw, sorry ...bummer
[15:25] <bazhang> tomek_, you dont do that. use sudo
[15:25] <An_Ony_Moose> krw: switch to a tty (ctrl-alt-f2), log in, then type "jockey-text -a" and press enter
[15:26] <CyborgSmurf> I have a question considering MacBook Mail issues... should I take this problem elsewhere?
[15:26] <An_Ony_Moose> krw: or put jockey-text -a in a termianl
[15:26] <bazhang> CyborgSmurf, an apple channel?
[15:27] <CyborgSmurf> bazhang: I dont know much about apple but it has something to do  with smtp
[15:27] <krw> An_Ony_Moose: i ran it, but nothing happened :(
[15:27] <bazhang> CyborgSmurf, this is ubuntu support, try a macos or apple channel
[15:27] <tomek_> how to login as a root?
[15:27] <bazhang> tomek_, you dont. stop asking
[15:27] <CyborgSmurf> bazhang: oh, sorry... (Im out of my head today) thanks :)
[15:27] <IdleOne> tomaw: sudo -i
[15:28] <krw> An_Ony_Moose: there is a message on the front panel, that alert me ' there are more additional drivers available ', but how to use it without cursor ?
[15:28] <IdleOne> tomek_: sudo -i
[15:28] <tomek_> thanks
[15:28] <An_Ony_Moose> krw: do you have any idea why your mouse doesn't work?
[15:29] <IdleOne> tomek_: be very careful what commands you run while logged in with that
[15:29] <tomek_> i know
[15:29] <krw> An_One_Moose: i think the problem comes from Xorg
[15:29] <klown> I just installed 11.04 and I am having issues with my screen resolution.  I am using a tv (32in) as my montior, and my taskbars are hidden.  The resolutions in my nvidia config are not helping.
[15:30] <BluesKaj> krw, run , sudo nvidia-xconfig
[15:31] <krw> BluesKay: sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found
[15:32] <ikonia> kinux: for graphical apps, use gksudo (as an aside)
[15:32] <krw> i think, when the cursor problem fixed, then i can easily fix the nvidia error
[15:32] <BluesKaj> krw no :  run,  sudo nvidia-xconfig

[15:35] <bazhang> rafi, #winehq
[15:35] <bazhang> !appdb | rafi
[15:35] <IdleOne> tomek_: it is easier to help if you tell us exactly what you are trying to accomplish
[15:36] <ikonia> nlko: that project looks dead and unlikley to work on a modern distro without serious patches
[15:36] <Tetracomm> No one knows what I can do about my wubi problem?
[15:36] <bazhang> Tetracomm, what problem
[15:37] <nlko> ikonia: ah ok, thanks
[15:38] <Tetracomm> Btw. Can I use Wubi to install whatever version of Ubuntu (even old) that is on my livecd?
[15:39] <Tetracomm> Oh wait, Wubi comes with the cd. :D
[15:39] <BluesKaj> krw , in the terminal sudo lshw -C video ...look for product that should show your graphics card if it's recognized
[15:39] <klown> I just installed 11.04 and I am having issues with my screen resolution.  I am using a tv (32in) as my montior, and my taskbars are hidden.  The resolutions in my nvidia config are not helping.
[15:40] <WHAT_UP> Is there a way to control which monitor things are being displayed on via the terminal? I don't want to have to go through NVIDIA server settings each time, and it would be nice to be able to have a nice button i could just click on =) and have both the laptop and external display clone each other =).
[15:40] <bazhang> WHAT_UP, a button in the terminal?
[15:41] <WHAT_UP> bazhang: well, theoretically, if i can control it through the terminal then i can make a script out of it
[15:41] <bazhang> WHAT_UP, randr?
[15:41] <royale1223> i need to list all files in my home folder(exclude dirs). How can I do that in terminal?
[15:41] <krw> BluesKaj: which data do you want to know? here is some line, but no errors
[15:42] <bazhang> krw, use pastebin
[15:42] <BluesKaj> krw product
[15:42] <krw> BluesKaj: product: G94 [GeForce 9600 GT]
[15:42] <krw> bazhang: cannot mark text, my mouse doesnt work ..
[15:43] <Migaaresno> royale1223: ls -R
[15:43] <Migaaresno> Woops, sorry. I cant read.
[15:44] <krw> ill come back soon, thx for help, bb
[15:46] <WHAT_UP> bazhang: i'm not even getting the second monitor listed if i type "xrandr", only the laptop monitor
[15:46] <royale1223> i need to list all files in my home folder(exclude dirs). How can I do that in terminal?
[15:46] <duiu> If I'm in a recovery terminal and I manually mount /, what's the command that you run to tell the terminal you mounted / and want to be able to access it?
[15:46] <ech0s7> hi all
[15:47] <royale1223> duiu: i think / is already mounted in a recovery shell.
[15:48] <Barzogh> royale1223: ls -a
[15:48] <royale1223> Barzogh: it lists dirs. I dont want dirs.
[15:49] <royale1223> Barzogh: Also I need path to the files. ls wont show path.
[15:50] <mengu> hi.
[15:50] <mengu> why in the earth the dock on the left in unity sticks and doesn't go away
[15:50] <Barzogh> royale1223: http://www.ahinc.com/linux101/files.htm#List%20the%20Contents%20of%20a%20directory
[15:51] <royale1223> mengu: You can switch to classic view when you login.
[15:51] <hermit_> I'm connected to a server via ssh. How do i run a bash script, and keep it running after I close the ssh session? Would making it a background job work? (&)
[15:51] <mengu> royale1223: sure i can. but that is not the answer.
[15:51] <ech0s7> i have a problem with ubuntu natty classic 11.04: the clock text is not visible correctly... i have also tried gnome-panel --replace, but with no success... http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/860/screenry.png/
[15:52] <royale1223> Barzogh: ls dont show path.
[15:52] <IdleOne> mengu: you can change the size of icons and set the launcher to auto hide by installing compizcofig-settings-manager.
[15:53] <bazhang> http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/easily-configure-ubuntus-unity-interface-confity-linux/ mengu
[15:53] <royale1223> mengu: You cant work in unity without that dock.
[15:53] <IdleOne> royale1223: he isn't trying to remove it he is trying to get it to autohide
[15:53] <mengu> you got me wrong.
[15:53] <mengu> the dock is stuck in there.
[15:53] <mengu> when i move my mouse out of it, it still stays there
[15:54] <royale1223> IdleOne, mengu: oh i see.
[15:54] <IdleOne> mengu: click on an active window, does it hide?
[15:54] <mengu> IdleOne: though that link is awesome, thanks for that. :)
[15:54] <mengu> IdleOne: nope, it does not.
[15:54] <IdleOne> mengu: try hitting alt-tab
[15:55] <klown_> Anyone have any idea how to fix a screen resolution issue with 11.04.  Cant see taskbars at all
[15:55] <mengu> IdleOne: done that, no help
[15:55] <tomek_> what about games for linux , who knows any interesting title?
[15:55] <bazhang> !games > tomek_
[15:55] <IdleOne> mengu: then I suggest you take a look at the link bazhang gave you and also install CCSM
[15:55] <tomek_> !games
[15:55] <bazhang> mengu, what about confity
[15:55] <phox_> !games > phox_
[15:56] <royale1223> tomek_: try battle for wesnoth. There are lots of good games in the playdeb repo too.

[15:58] <plandoll12> is anyone else having trouble with the new linux kernel?
[15:58] <ikonia> plandoll12: which new linux kernel ?
[15:58] <compdoc> plandoll12, works fine for me on a few systems being used as servers
[15:58] <plandoll12> I upgraded to ubuntu 11.04 and the kernel that came with it is having trouble booting
[15:59] <ikonia> plandoll12: explain your problem
[15:59] <plandoll12> when I boot I get to the grub loader fine but when I select the latest version of linux it starts to boot, but it stops after a bit
[15:59] <plandoll12> it just stops loading
[16:00] <ikonia> plandoll12: remove the splash screen and look for errors
[16:00] <plandoll12> how?
[16:00] <ikonia> I'm sure there is a factoid for it
[16:00] <ikonia> !splash
[16:00] <ikonia> nope
[16:00] <bazhang> !nox
[16:00] <judget> how do I register my nick with freenode?
[16:00] <ikonia> bazhang: thank you
[16:01] <bazhang> judget, join #freenode
[16:01] <plandoll12> alright I
[16:01] <plandoll12> I'll try that out
[16:02] <plandoll12> if that doesn't help should I try to reinstall the kernel?
[16:02] <ikonia> plandoll12: no
[16:02] <ikonia> plandoll12: you should do that
[16:02] <ikonia> plandoll12: then feed back to us
[16:02] <plandoll12> ok
[16:02] <plandoll12> thx
[16:02] <ikonia> plandoll12: you don't even know there is a problem with the kernel at this stage

[16:04] <phantomcircuit> i have some code id like to have packaged properly and im willing to pay someone else to do it since i dont have any idea how to do it properly
[16:04] <bazhang> !packaging | phantomcircuit
[16:05] <phantomcircuit> bazhang, yeah i was saying i dont know or want to learn so id rather pay someone to do it
[16:06] <bazhang> phantomcircuit, not the ways things work here
[16:06] <phantomcircuit> how many times do you have someone willing to pay for foss to be packaged?
[16:06] <ech0s7> how can i configure synaptic touchpad speed?
[16:06] <ech0s7> in preference>mouse i can change global speed mouse
[16:06] <ech0s7> (usb + synaptic touchpad)
[16:07] <dfordivam>  /msg NickServ identify dinoma
[16:07] <IdleOne> phantomcircuit: try asking in #ubuntu-packaging, you may find someone willing to take a look at the code and package it for you.
[16:07] <phantomcircuit> thanks
[16:07] <ech0s7> i would set different speed for touchpad and usb mouse
[16:07] <IdleOne> phantomcircuit: offering to pay is almost insulting btw but maybe someone will take you up on it.
[16:07] <tomek_> what is good video editing software for ubuntu?

[16:08] <BluesKaj> tomek_, ffmpeg
[16:08] <bazhang> devede tomek_
[16:08] <tomek_> in win i have pinnacle ...
[16:08] <phantomcircuit> IdleOne, well i've had a couple of people say they'd do it and not follow through or even do like half the work
[16:08] <ZykoticK9> tomek_, if you're looking for dvd output check out devede as bazhang just suggested
[16:08] <bazhang> tomek_, in other cases handbrake
[16:08] <phantomcircuit> IdleOne, i find people finish things if they're paid to do so, even if it's a small amount
[16:09] <IdleOne> phantomcircuit: devs like to package what they consider to be quality, this is why I suggest you ask them to help and not offer to pay.
[16:09] <phantomcircuit> the code is no quality
[16:09] <phantomcircuit> hehe
[16:09] <phantomcircuit> not*
[16:10] <IdleOne> phantomcircuit: probably why you haven't been able to find someone to attach themselves to it. but anyway ask in there and maybe someone will.

[16:14] <barberan> jon_athon, did you find something ?
[16:14] <EmuAlert> Can you set more than one key combination to the same shortcut?
[16:14] <jon_athon> barberan, my touchpad is erratic
[16:14] <jon_athon> if I touch it the pointer jumps all over
[16:15] <jon_athon> it clicks just by dragging around

[16:15] <djiefo> Hi, is it possible to set Live! Cam Video IM Pro  as default microphone with wine?
[16:16] <IdleOne> djiefo: ask in #winehq

[16:16] <djiefo> IdleOne,  thx
[16:16] <[THC]AcidRain> hold on
[16:17] <IdleOne> jon_athon: sounds like the touchpad is set way too sensitive. try adjusting the sensitivity in the Mouse settings.

[16:20] <[THC]AcidRain> bazhang: my main problem is when im logging into the ftp server. i get an error unable to set anonymous privaledges
[16:20] <IdleOne> is it installed?
[16:20] <drudge01> do i use gzip -xcfg folder folder.zip
[16:20] <[THC]AcidRain> bazhang: i believe this has to do with me not being able to change the privaledges of the external drive
[16:21] <ZykoticK9> drudge01, gzip uses a gz extension usually, not zip.
[16:21] <th0r> I have located a number of pages with differing methods to disable/remove gnome-keyring. Is there an up-to-date way to do this?

[16:29] <judget> sorry
[16:29] <ikonia> judget: is this mysql or postfix problem
[16:29] <djiefo> (in xubuntu 11.04)  Hi, I installed Ventrilo with wine and I try to find a way to set my webcam (Live! Cam Video IM Pro) as default microphone but I dunno how. And I don't see the option to take it in Ventrilo. All my friends using Ventrilo for voice chat... It works well but no microphone recognized at the moment
[16:30] <bazhang> djiefo, doubt that wine can do hardware, try #winehq to confirm
[16:30] <judget> ikonia the issue seems to revolve around trying to stop and restart mysql from /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[16:30] <djiefo> bazhang,  i'm already on it...
[16:30] <ikonia> judget: what is the actual issue you're having
[16:30] <judget> it appeared during a postfix uninstall / reinstall
[16:30] <bazhang> djiefo, so be patient, that's the channel to ask in
[16:31] <D0minat0r> hi i have a problem, my /etc/environment has the correct path but all the logge din users gets wrong path, cant run ifconfig and so on
[16:31] <ikonia> judget: why do you keep referencing postfix
[16:31] <ikonia> judget: is this a mysql problem or a postfix problem
[16:31] <D0minat0r> anyone have an idea what i have done?
[16:31] <djiefo> bazhang,  i'm patient, i am a linux user lollll
[16:32] <IdleOne> djiefo: apparently you're not patient you keep asking in here for help about something that isn't provided in here :)
[16:33] <judget> My apologies ikonia the issue began when I tried to uninstall / resinstall postfix.
[16:33] <ikonia> judget: ok - what is the actual issue
[16:33] <jon_athon> IdleOne, Well, it's installed.. but it won't let me modify any settings
[16:34] <IdleOne> jon_athon: it is a GUI tool?
[16:34] <osse> Just installed gnuplot from source. It's located in /usr/local/bin which is before /usr/bin in $PATH. Still, when I type gnuplot at the prompt the one in /usr/bin is started. 'which gnuplot' and 'whereis gnuplot' give different locations. What's going on here??
[16:34] <jon_athon> IdleOne, no
[16:34] <IdleOne> jon_athon: try running with sudo perhaps.
[16:34] <djiefo> IdleOne, apparently... i maybe need a psychologist too
[16:34] <IdleOne> don't we all
[16:34] <djiefo> IdleOne,  :)
[16:35] <klown_> I'm having an issue with my screen resolution, resolutions in nvidia-xsettings wont fix it.  Can't see my taskbars at all.  Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
[16:35] <jon_athon> IdleOne, ye I had a root terminal open
[16:35] <ZykoticK9> klown_, are you using Unity or Classic?
[16:35] <klown_> classic
[16:35] <judget> ikonia take a look at this paste please http://paste.ubuntu.com/619228/
[16:36] <ZykoticK9> klown_, ok, just checking
[16:36] <IdleOne> sorry jon_athon I don't know what else to suggest.
[16:36] <jon_athon> IdleOne, no worries
[16:36] <jon_athon> thanks
[16:37] <ikonia> judget: whats the problem
[16:37] <henux> Hi.
[16:37] <henux> How do I install eclipse? It's given me some weird error
[16:37] <judget> ikona maybe i shoudl be asking the postfix channel but it seems that postfix is trying to update mysql to 5.1 and for some reason that is failing
[16:37] <henux> Hello?
[16:37] <judget> ikonia  maybe i shoudl be asking the postfix channel but it seems that postfix is trying to update mysql to 5.1 and for some reason that is failing
[16:37] <ikonia> judget: why do you keep referencing postfix, they are nothing to do with each other
[16:38] <EvilZimsky> Hmmm
[16:38] <edbian> henux: What's the error?
[16:38] <henux> It gives me 'java 1.4 is not supported by this package. Please install Java 1.6 first"
[16:38] <m00se> My mom tried to install walmart's picture upload software on her ubuntu machine and it screwed something up - anyone have any idea on what could have happened?
[16:38] <EvilZimsky> Trollolololololololol
[16:38] <EvilZimsky> Herpa derpa derpa derp
[16:38] <bazhang> EvilZimsky, stop that
[16:38] <BluesKaj> mysql to 5.1 ?
[16:38] <bazhang> m00se, from where
[16:38] <judget> ikonia the reason i refer to postfix is that when i attempt to uninstall and reinstall postfix it seems that it may be trying to upgrade mysql or it is confused about the version of mysql that is running  and the result is that mysql fails to restart
[16:39] <m00se> From the walmart website.
[16:39] <EvilZimsky> sorry
[16:39] <henux> m00se: ohai
[16:39] <m00se> hi henux
[16:39] <bazhang> m00se, ubuntu software?
[16:39] <EvilZimsky> couldn't resist the urge
[16:39] <ikonia> judget: first postfix is nothing to do with mysql - so forget about it, it has no interest/control over mysql
[16:39] <bazhang> EvilZimsky, take it elsewhere
[16:39] <m00se> I don't think so bazhang - it's windows/mac only.
[16:39] <bazhang> m00se, thats why then. not an ubuntu issue
[16:39] <[an]droidman> henux: then install java 1.6: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[16:40] <IdleOne> -jre
[16:40] <henux> [an]droidman: oh ok thanks
[16:40] <edbian> m00se: Then she shouldn't have been able to make 1 mm of progress on Ubuntu.
[16:40] <robin0800> m00se, was it for linux?
[16:40] <m00se> You don't know my mom.
[16:40] <winterdj> Has anyone had trouble with APF blocking outgoing traffic (like DNS lookups) even with outgoing filtering disabled?
[16:40] <m00se> She probably threatened it with a wooden spoon.
[16:40] <[an]droidman> IdleOne: both download for jdk
[16:40] <djiefo> IdleOne,  actually, we can't do hardware with winehq but there's a linux program to use ventrilo servers called Mangler :)
[16:40] <djiefo> That why my question was post in both places
[16:41] <IdleOne> djiefo: happy you figured it out
[16:41] <judget> ikonia  I would agree with you on that but for some reason when i do a apt-get install postfix it is distrubing the mysql
[16:41] <judget> if it were a soimple issue i would not be addressing it here
[16:41] <edbian> m00se: Well perhaps we can repair what happened.  What is the immediate problem?
[16:41] <ikonia> judget: it possibly wants to shut it down before the install
[16:41] <ikonia> !info postfix
[16:42] <ikonia> judget: there are mysql modules for postfix, so it may want to shut it down before the install
[16:42] <Anastasius> Mysquirrel, (mysquirrel, mysquirrel), talkin' 'bout, my squirrelllll *mysquirrel*
[16:42] <IdleOne> Anastasius: please don't
[16:42] <Anastasius> k.
[16:42] <judget> ok so then maybe i should inquire at the postfix channel?
[16:42] <IdleOne> thank you
[16:43] <ikonia> judget: why ?
[16:43] <ikonia> judget: postfix doesn't make ubuntu packages
[16:43] <ikonia> #postfix channel doesn't make ubuntu packages
[16:43] <judget> ok well I am happy to follow any suggestions. I have been trying to figure this out for several days
[16:43] <jimjam> Klown_ : Did you get your panel issues sorted out?
[16:44] <ikonia> judget: I'm still not seeing an actual problem
[16:44] <ikonia> judget: what is the actual problem
[16:44] <th0r> judget: do you have the latest mysql installed? might be that the latest postfix requires the latest mysql for those modules mentioned earlier
[16:44] <badmox> hi i have a problem with the session management on 11.04 it wont re open programs on reboot
[16:44] <judget> ikonia I will attemopt to duplicate the problem and pastebin the screen results for you ok?
[16:45] <ikonia> judget: ok, or you could just explain the problem
[16:45] <tallnatt> Has anybody had sucess  installing Natty Server with RAID 5?
[16:45] <klown_> jimjam, no i didnt.
[16:46] <jimjam> klown_: when did the problems start?
[16:46] <klown_> jimjam, when I installed today :P
[16:46] <judget> ikonia look at this pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/619237/
[16:47] <judget> after that I cannot start mysql unless i reboot the server that is the problem
[16:47] <jimjam> klown_: congrats :-p have you had panels visible at all? Or were they just not visible when you first started up?
[16:47] <ikonia> judget: ok - read the error
[16:47] <klown_> they are "visible" but due to screen resolution I cannot see them.
[16:47] <klown_> screen isnt fitting the monitor.
[16:47] <ikonia> judget: "postfix is not installed"
[16:48] <sgtgarzya> ciao
[16:48] <bazhang> !it | sgtgarzya
[16:48] <sgtgarzya> !list
[16:48] <jimjam> klown_: O...so do you need help adjusting screen resolution?
[16:48] <klown_> jimjam, yes
[16:49] <klown_> jimjam, adding new resolutions and such.
[16:49] <judget> ikonia it says that mysal-server-5.0 is not configured yet
[16:49] <judget> and it is whining about a dependancy problem
[16:49] <__doc__> hi. I'm trying to create an usb startup disk. When I use the startup-disk-creator, I get "boot error". When I use UnetBootin and the vanilla 10.04 iso, it works. But when I use uck to make the iso I get "boot error". I also get "boot error" for ISOs other people customized. Any idea?
[16:49] <ikonia> judget: no - forget that, the first error, you're trying to purge postfix, it's not even installed
[16:50] <ikonia> judget: actually read the errors
[16:50] <IdleOne> royale1223: please ask your questions in the channel so that others might help if they can.
[16:50] <judget> ok so I will reboot and attempt to install postfix
[16:50] <ikonia> judget: ??
[16:50] <ikonia> judget: why are you rebooting
[16:50] <judget> and see what happens
[16:50] <ikonia> judget: you're just doing random things
[16:50] <D0minat0r> hi i have a problem, my /etc/environment has the correct path but all the logge din users gets wrong path, cant run ifconfig and so on
[16:50] <ikonia> judget: you're trying to remove a package that doesn't exist, now you're saying you want to reboot and install it
[16:50] <judget> i am rebooting becoz that is the only way I can get mysql to start again unless u have another suggestion :)
[16:50] <D0minat0r> anyone have an idea how to get the correct $PATH back?
[16:51] <ikonia> judget: what do you want to do ?
[16:51] <ikonia> judget: what happens if you do "sudo service mysql start"
[16:51] <ikonia> D0minat0r: quit the shell and log back in
[16:51] <D0minat0r> ikonia:
[16:51] <ikonia> D0minat0r: source your .bashrc file
[16:51] <D0minat0r> ikonia: wont work
[16:51] <D0minat0r> ikonia: done that
[16:51] <judget> ikonia this is 8,04 i do not think the sudoi service works on that version but i will try it
[16:51] <ikonia> judget: ok, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[16:52] <ikonia> judget: you also known 8.04 is EOL
[16:52] <ikonia> !8.04
[16:52] <jimjam> klown_ : if you type "randr" without quotes in shell, what does the line near the very top say? With minimum, current and maximum?
[16:52] <CoolCoder> external keyboard is not working properly after suspend on my laptop/. any fix?
[16:52] <jimjam> klown_ : Correction, "xrandr"
[16:53] <EmuAlert> How do I list installed codecs for ffmpeg?

[16:53] <barnburner> can someone help me with a serious problem?
[16:53] <judget> ikonia sudo service mysql start fails here is the pastebin of syslog : http://paste.ubuntu.com/619239/
[16:53] <bazhang> barnburner, what issue
[16:54] <royale1223> IdleOne: I need to list all files in directry recursively with full path, excluding dirs.
[16:54] <royale1223> IdleOne: How do i do that?
[16:54] <judget> ikonia looks like a permissions issue?
[16:54] <ikonia> judget: what ???
[16:54] <ikonia> judget: why do you think that is a permissions problem ?
[16:55] <judget> ikonia the syslog points to a permission issue doesnt it?
[16:55] <IdleOne> royale1223: "ls -aR ~/ > ~/Desktop/filename.txt"  that will give you a text file with all directories and files in each dir. I don't know how to not list the dirs.
[16:55] <ikonia> judget: what syslog ? you've not posted the syslog
[16:55] <jimjam> klown_ : hmm...ok. How do you know that the panels are there at all?
[16:55] <klown_> jimjam, because I can slightly see them.
[16:56] <klown_> like, the very bottom of the firefox icon
[16:56] <CoolCoder> external keyboard is not working properly after suspend on my DEL laptop. any fix? this is a serious issues. please any help?
[16:56] <ikonia> judget: can you please stop doing random things and just answer the quesitons I ask
[16:56] <ikonia> judget: what happens when you do "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start"
[16:56] <klown_> jimjam, I dont know if this helps, but I am using a 32inch tv for my monitor.  dvi out.
[16:56] <quantumlemur> hey, I'm on a fresh install of 11.04, and my laptop battery indicator sometimes says that it's plugged in and charging, when it's not actually.  plugging it in and unplugging it can sometimes reset it, so it's correct.  It also sometimes doesn't show my secondary battery.  Any ideas, or is there any way to restart the battery monitor so that it redetects everything?
[16:56] <quiescens> IdleOne: they already left for some reason, shrugs
[16:56] <judget> ikonia my apologies look here pls http://paste.ubuntu.com/619242/
[16:57] <IdleOne> quiescens: typical :/
[16:57] <bazhang> and back
[16:57] <IdleOne> royale1223: "ls -aR ~/ > ~/Desktop/filename.txt"  that will give you a text file with all directories and files in each dir. I don't know how to not list the dirs.
[16:57] <ikonia> judget: stop, and answer the questions I'm asking
[16:57] <ikonia> judget: what happens when you do "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start"
[16:58] <oCean> royale1223: find . -type f will only listregular files
[16:58] <jimjam> klown_: That's interesting, thanks. To be honest with you I'm new to this, but this site has a good explanation of setting up a custom resolution - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-change-display-resolution-settings-using-xrandr.html - I'm going to have a play about with it, and I suggest you do the same.
[16:58] <ikonia> judget: have you changed your database file path to /development ?
[16:58] <quiescens> royale1223: find (directory) ! -type d
[16:58] <royale1223> oCean: thanks
[16:58] <barnburner> i downloaded backtrack 5 and burned it to a live cd and after i dual booted it i cant get into my windows 7
[16:59] <jimjam> klown_: btw, what does the next line in the output say?
[16:59] <royale1223> quiescens: thanks
[16:59] <ikonia> barnburner: support for backtrack is in #backtrack-linux not here
[16:59] <royale1223> IdleOne: thanks
[16:59] <judget> ikona it fails here is paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/619244/
[16:59] <klown_> default connected 1280x720+0+0 0mm x 0mm
[16:59] <ikonia> judget: that's the syslog again
[17:00] <IdleOne> oCean: that is handy to know :)
[17:00] <ikonia> judget: I've asked you 3 times to stop posting the syslog and just tell me what happens when you run "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start"
[17:00] <judget> ikonia that is the syslog after an attempted restart
[17:00] <ikonia> judget: yes, and I've told you to stop posting the syslog -
[17:00] <badmox> i have a problem with the session management on 11.04 it wont re open programs on reboot
[17:00] <judget> i am looking at the warnings which look like a permissions error
[17:00] <klown_> jimjam, I just dont know the resolution i'd need to set it to.
[17:00] <ikonia> judget: you can't listen to instructions and give information back, so I'm going to let you carry on, on your own
[17:01] <ikonia> judget: 8.04 is not supported any more so please stop asking
[17:01] <IdleOne> judget: seriously you need to stop thinking and start answering exactly what ikonia is asking you. He can help but only if you provide the info he asks for.
[17:01] <judget> when i run sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start it fails
[17:01] <judget> i was tryinmg to show you why it fails in the syslog
[17:02] <jimjam> klown_: Well if you're at 1280 x 720 and your monitor is a little smaller, try 1280 x 690
[17:02] <oCean> IdleOne: find is another *nix powertool
[17:02] <ikonia> judget: you're on your own - I'm not interested any more
[17:02] <klown_> jimjam, thanks, ill try that.
[17:02] <jimjam> klown_ : since the standard panel size seems to be 23px
[17:03] <judget> ok ikonia thanks anyway it seems we have a comminucation problem here
[17:03] <jimjam> klown_ : np, gl
[17:03] <ikonia> judget: I assure you we don't, you just don't listen and do random things
[17:03] <judget> ikonia you asked me to srestart mysql and tell u what happended. And i tolde you that it failed
[17:04] <ikonia> judget: then I asked you to stop pasting the pastebin,
[17:04] <djiefo> damn chmod +x is our friend in 11.04 :)
[17:04] <ikonia> judget: and you did it again
[17:04] <Tetracomm> Hello.

[17:04] <ikonia> judget: good luck
[17:04] <Tetracomm> How do I determine whether my kernel is 32 or 64 bit at the command prompt?
[17:05] <ikonia> Tetracomm: uname -m
[17:05] <bazhang> Tetracomm, what does uname -m show
[17:05] <Tetracomm> I should have just typed uname --help. :D
[17:06] <Tetracomm> i686.
[17:06] <ares_> hello
[17:07] <Tetracomm> Does i686 definitely mean 64 bit?
[17:07] <quiescens> no
[17:07] <ubunturocks> Hi, I just installed 11LTS on VMWare. Keyring for Synaptic software updates does not recognise password. Can somebody help?
[17:07] <quiescens> i686 is 32bit
[17:07] <IdleOne> Tetracomm: it will be x86_64 if it's 64 bit
[17:07] <ikonia> ubunturocks: there isn't an 11 lts
[17:08] <Tetracomm> IdleOne: So i686 alone actually means 32 bit?
[17:08] <cvd> hello there
[17:08] <IdleOne> Tetracomm: yes
[17:08] <ubunturocks> ikonia, 11.04 Natty Narwhal
[17:08] <ikonia> ubunturocks: it's not lts
[17:08] <ubunturocks> ikonia, ok. Can you help with my problem?
[17:09] <cvd> why my ubuntu 11.04 sometimes logout automatically?
[17:09] <ikonia> ubunturocks: not at this time, I'm leaving
[17:09] <jon_athon> how do I upgrade to a specific kernel version? 2.6.35
[17:09] <Tetracomm> Thank you, IdleOne. Should I switch this one to 64 bit? This is an AMD Athlon II 2.93 GHZ dual core.
[17:09] <IdleOne> Tetracomm: not if you don't want to.
[17:09] <Tetracomm> Does it help performance?
[17:10] <ubunturocks> ikonia, would you mind wasting my time next time? These details didn't help anybody. Cheers
[17:10] <Tetracomm> Idleone
[17:10] <IdleOne> nothing noticeably imo
[17:11] <cvd> is that a bug? automatically logout
[17:11] <cvd> for no apparent reason
[17:12] <cvd> i have to flood to gwt atention here?

[17:18] <jon_athon> Okay, so the "show" command for the linux images suggests that I do not install the package directly, but install the meta-package... what the hck is that?
[17:18] <samuel> but i know as my company recently canvassed for a server to host its e-mails
[17:19] <samuel> and most hosting companies provide servers with bsd or centos
[17:19] <jon_athon>  You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed.
[17:19] <royale1223> llutz: say i want prefix "wget -c" to all lines in "/home/x/x.sh". Whats the sed command?
[17:19] <jon_athon> ????????

[17:21] <alzamabar> I have just installed Ubuntu 11.04. When launching Synaptic software update, keyring does not accept sudo pwd? Can somebody help?
[17:23] <IdleOne> alzamabar: you are certain you are entering the correct pass?
[17:23] <alzamabar> Well, yes. I tried many times...From command line, sudo <command> works
[17:24] <alzamabar> IdleOne, (sorry, including the name): Well, yes. I tried many times...From command line, sudo <command> works

[17:26] <alzamabar> oCean, thanks it worked! Why do we need this extra step to enable something that should be enabled automatically?
[17:27] <alzamabar> oCean, is there any installation option that I should have chosen to have this behaviour automatically?
[17:27] <oCean> alzamabar: by default it is true. I find that every now and then someone has to enable it. No clue as to why
[17:27] <oCean> alzamabar: not sure, maybe
[17:27] <rww> oCean: fyi, you can also use gksu-properties to set that. Little bit less terminal-ful

[17:39] <jon_athon> Hmmm, it gives a gui instruction... any insight into command line upgrading?

[17:49] <savid> Will I notice that much of a difference if I choose to install the amd64 version as opposed to the i386 version?  I've heard I can get a lot of bugs with 64 (ie, w/ flash or other proprietary software).
[17:50] <savid> I have a Core 2 Duo laptop.
[17:50] <kay_> I have a dell m1330... Dell Wireless 1490 Dual-Band WLAN MiniCard?

[17:50] <kay_> ... I can paste bin
[17:50] <kay_> ok
[17:51] <edbian> kay_: Yeah.  the command:  sudo lspci -k    put the output in pastebin (it will be long)

[17:55] <klown_> I'm having an issue with my screen resolution, resolutions in nvidia-xsettings wont fix it.  Can't see my taskbars at all.  Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
[17:56] <edbian> kay_: run this command.  sudo apt-get install firwmare-b43-installer    It installs software that runs on the actual wifi card.
[17:56] <blargg> I mirrored my root (/) partition from sda2 to sda4, and changed the UUID of sda4 and ran update-grub. When I boot, it lists the linux kernels on sda4, but when I select one of them, it mounts sda2 as root and completely ignores sda4. I've edited /etc/fstab on sda2 and sda4 to have the UUID of sda4's volume, but it still mounts sda2 at root regardless. Is there something else that specifies what to mount at / ?
[17:56] <edbian> kay_: It is proprietary software so Ubuntu does not like to distribute it with Ubuntu.    It isn't working yet.  We have to turn on the module (modules are drivers in linux)  sudo modprobe b43
[17:58] <edbian> kay_: You have a BCM43xx so we use the b43 module

[17:59] <kay_> ok... I'm so used to windows
[17:59] <edbian> kay_: Look in the applet in the panel and see if wireless networks are listed.  If not we need to do one more thing.
[17:59] <edbian> kay_: You're doing fine :)
[18:00] <edbian> kay_: If you are confused about what I'm talking about ask more questions and I will explain.
[18:00] <kay_> i'm not sure what the applet panel is, but I see wireless networks when I click on the wifi symbol at the top right
[18:00] <edbian> kay_: That icon is the applet.  The bar it is in in the top right is the panel.  The card is now working.
[18:00] <edbian> kay_: Click a network and connect to it.
[18:01] <trijntje> how can I enable three click emulation in natty (and why is it no longer default)?

[18:04] <blargg> Oh yes, very very hard, you shouldn't even bother
[18:04] <edbian> barnburner: I think the security varies from site to site.  I don't see why a pron site would be less secure.  I am sure there are secure ones.

[18:05] <edbian> klown_: It seems rather extensive.
[18:06] <trijntje> lets talk about third button emulation in natty then, how do I turn it on ;)
[18:06] <klown_> edbian, yes, but every time I try to set the resolution in xrandr I get an error
[18:06] <edbian> klown_: What error?
[18:06] <klown_> xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
[18:06] <klown_> sorry, was copying it as you were asking.

[18:10] <thevishy> how do I open terminal in my nautilus location ?
[18:10] <klown_> well, I'm using a 32in tv as my monitor.  I'm not exactly sure its a "resolution" problem.
[18:10] <linux> test
[18:10] <klown_> the current resolution is fine..but the screen isnt fitting on the tv.
[18:10] <edbian> klown_: What is the issue?
[18:10] <quiescens> aspect ratio?
[18:10] <edbian> klown_: The panels are cut off?
[18:10] <osse> thevishy, there is a package you can install called nautilus-open-terminal. After that is installed you can right click and then choose "Open in terminal"
[18:11] <klown_> I cannot see my task bars at all.

[18:11] <starZ> hi all, any new about how to use themes with natty and GDM2 ??
[18:11] <edbian> klown_: Yeah aspect ration on the TV
[18:11] <edbian> ratio*
[18:11] <IdleOne> !java | Cpt
[18:11] <klown_> changing the aspect ratio on the tv doesnt change anything.
[18:11] <klown_> I've tried. :/
[18:12] <Cpt> Thank you
[18:12] <iocor> I like unity
[18:12] <edbian> klown_: Try giving the TV a different resolution and then change the ratio.  What resolution does the TV support?
[18:12] <iocor> but I want to put the launcher bar to the bottom
[18:12] <iocor> how do I do this
[18:12] <klown_> edbian, I'm not exactly sure what it supports.
[18:12] <IdleOne> iocor: you can't, in the next release you will be able to
[18:12] <omichalek> TheMatrix3000 it is something like:  sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
[18:12] <iocor> ok
[18:12] <edbian> klown_: Is it 720p 1080p?
[18:12] <klown_> 1080p
[18:12] <edbian> klown_: That can give you a general idea.
[18:13] <omichalek> TheMatrix3000 but google it first, there is also one more entry that is for the text splash
[18:13] <nit-wit> TheMatrix3000, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1739412
[18:13] <edbian> klown_: 1080p is 1920 x 1080   TV's are actually much lower resolution that monitors in general
[18:13] <FreedomThroughLi> test
[18:14] <edbian> klown_: Look up the TV's manual to see exactly what resolutions are supported.  I suggest just trying some though.  Can you change resolution in the gui ?
[18:14] <guest1> got it
[18:14] <guest1> i cant get the launcher to open
[18:14] <starZ> thx!
[18:14] <klown_> edbian, I can change the one in nvidia-xconfig but it doesnt help.
[18:14] <edbian> klown_: To be absolutely clear this isn't strictly an Ubuntu issue.  The OS is working fine.
[18:15] <edbian> klown_: What resolutions have you tried?
[18:15] <guest1> i need help!!!
[18:15] <edbian> guest1: with what dog
[18:15] <rShetty> Hey , I Updated latest Ubuntu version and restarted and everything was gone from folders to task bar ... what may be the problem ?
[18:15] <guest1> launcher
[18:15] <guest1> i cant open it
[18:15] <klown_> 1280, 1920x1080 does the same as well.
[18:16] <Cpt> Also, sudo apt-get update gives me the error message "The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/htt could not be found". Any clues?
[18:16] <omichalek> guest1 do you mean the Alt+F2 command?
[18:16] <guest1> ill try...
[18:16] <edbian> klown_: Mmmm, I am thinking that the TV settings need to be changed.  Typically if all the pixels are not being shown it is an issue with the monitor not the OS
[18:16] <omichalek> guest1 or in Natty you just press the "super" (windows) key
[18:16] <guest1> no i mean left taskbar thingy
[18:17] <klown_> its an issue in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  ive had this issue before, but the person who helped filled out the xorg.conf for me (this was my first day on linux, years ago) and I dont recall what they did exactly.
[18:17] <omichalek> guest1 that's Unity's panel, hit the upper left corner or push for a while against left edge
[18:17] <klown_> but it was something with the DPI if im not mistaken.
[18:17] <guest1> super key doesnt work
[18:17] <edbian> klown_: pastebin it.  What changed that it doesn't work now?
[18:18] <Cpt> Again, sudo apt-get update gives me the error message "The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/htt could not be found". Any clues?
[18:18] <klown_> edbian, I just installed linux today.  11.04
[18:18] <guest1> omichalek: it doesnt wrk
[18:18] <quiescens> cpt: probably a type in your sources.list or something
[18:19] <quiescens> typo*
[18:19] <edbian> klown_: Mhmmm, ok yeah lemme see your xorg.conf please.  In a pastebin.  It is likely that we don't need it at all but we'll try that after I get a look see
[18:19] <kavurt> my computer cannot see memory stick. can i do something about it?
[18:19] <omichalek> guest1 that is strange, isn't there a program running that is blocking your input maybe? try Super+W or Super+S
[18:19] <klown_> edbian, http://pastebin.com/LHQdqNzs
[18:20] <edbian> klown_: reading...
[18:20] <Cpt> quiescens ; Oh silly me, forgot the P in 'http' lol.
[18:21] <omichalek> kavurt not at all? try opening "Disk utility" just to see whether Ubuntu sees it
[18:21] <pozic> Does Ubuntu recognize LVMs of a Fedora installation?
[18:21] <guest1> ySOS im not getting any help here...
[18:21] <quiescens> Cpt: that's roughly what i was getting at, yes
[18:21] <pozic> So, I can do an upgrade which will basically wipe the root partition and keep my Fedora home?
[18:21] <edbian> klown_: let's try temporarily removing the file.  sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/backup.Xorg.conf
[18:21] <edbian> klown_: And restart the machine and see what happens.
[18:22] <kavurt> omichalek: what's disk utility? partition manager?
[18:22] <guest1> quit:
[18:22] <klown_> k, brb
[18:23] <omichalek> kavurt I guess that should work too
[18:23] <kavurt> omichalek: no, it can't see either
[18:24] <omichalek> kavurt sorry, I can't think of anything else :(

[18:26] <edbian> klown: I don't now.  Here is how to move the file back: sudo mv /etc/X11/backup.Xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:26] <edbian> klown: Mmm, I don't know how to fix this problem :(
[18:26] <klown> edbian, well thanks for trying :)
[18:26] <codeshah> hey guys, I am trying to setup a mailserver but on a domain [mailserver.domain.com] - anyone have experience setting up DKIM for a subdomain?
[18:26] <edbian> klowsure
[18:26] <gohdan> how can i make this annoying output go away??
[18:28] <MonkeyDust> gohdan: that is called 'security'
[18:28] <quiescens> gohdan: the message will show up on any account that is in the admin group until they have successfully used sudo at least once
[18:29] <gohdan> MonkeyDust: except im NOT trying to run any privileged commands and merely launching a term??
[18:29] <gohdan> karma +1 quiescens
[18:30] <omichalek> kavurt maybe try in terminal:  dmesg | grep memorystick
[18:30] <MonkeyDust> gohdan: maybe you created something as root, so now you have to be root to have acces
[18:30] <omichalek> kavurt just to see the history of what Ubuntu saw with "memorystick" in it
[18:30] <quiescens> gohdan: technically if you want to short circuit that, you can "touch $HOME/.sudo_as_admin_successful" or edit /etc/bash.bashrc to remove it entirely
[18:31] <omichalek> kavurt or it might be named dirrerently, replace "memorystick" with "memory" maybe
[18:31] <AlphaAtom> Hey, I've just upgraded to Natty Narwhal
[18:32] <AlphaAtom> And I'm getting some internet connection problems
[18:32] <AlphaAtom> It just keeps disconnecting me
[18:32] <MonkeyDust> AlphaAtom: please put your question in one line :)
[18:32] <kavurt>  omichalek: it doesn't help either
[18:32] <omichalek> kavurt but does it show anything?
[18:33] <AlphaAtom> I've just upgraded and it keeps disconnecting me, the connect box appears, complete with my security password, why won't it automatically reconnect, or stop disconnecting me in the first place
[18:33] <kavurt> omichalek: no, nothing about memory stick
[18:33] <MonkeyDust> AlphaAtom: can you connect with cable?
[18:34] <AlphaAtom> I haven't got one with me
[18:34] <AlphaAtom> Or anywhere in this house for that matter
[18:34] <MonkeyDust> AlphaAtom: first try the easy,normal way
[18:34] <AlphaAtom> But that would just be totally impractical - for a laptop.
[18:34] <AlphaAtom> So I didn't feel the need to even buy a cable
[18:34] <MonkeyDust> i'm working on a laptop, wired connection
[18:35] <MonkeyDust> AlphaAtom: cable = easiest, fastes, most secure
[18:35] <AlphaAtom> Yeah I know that
[18:36] <gohdan> quiescens:  glad thats sorted out, thing was driving me nuts. i owe you a beer
[18:36] <AlphaAtom> But given the position of our router - bear in mind this is basically the only place we can put it without paying for more sockets, or having ugly cables everywhere - I wouldn't be able to use a wired connection
[18:36] <omichalek> kavurt I'm sorry, I am no pro, hopefully someone else here will know
[18:37] <Rollin> my ubuntu 11.04 install has bricked itself 2x now from the lattest software updates via update manager
[18:37] <Rollin> i can boot into low gfx mode via recovery, but normal login will not work. black screen. any ideas?
[18:37] <thunder1212> how can i upgrade to gnome 3
[18:37] <weside> I had nothing but trouble with 11.04 i fixed it by going back to 10.10 ;)
[18:37] <thunder1212> ??
[18:37] <edbian> Rollin: nomodeset on the kernel line
[18:38] <savid> Hi, I'm trying to re-claim some disk space, and I noticed that even though I empty my Trash,  the items are still kept in a folder called "expunged".  Is it safe to just delete that folder permanently?
[18:38] <ries> hello gents, how do I add a new locale under ubuntu? install-language-pack didn't work
[18:38] <gohdan> Rollin: i believe that is a new "feature" of natty.
[18:38] <MonkeyDust> !details| ries
[18:39] <ries> MonkeyDust: I think it's pretty simple, I need to add a new locale
[18:39] <nit-wit> thunder1212, use at your own risk, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-common-gnome-3-issues-on-ubuntu-11-04-natty.html
[18:39] <Rollin> i like 11.04. but if the update is going to keep breaking my install idk
[18:39] <omichalek> could anybody help me? I just installed Ubuntu on my other machine but I cannot login, no matter what session I choose I end up with wallpaper and mouse cursor only
[18:39] <MonkeyDust> ries: explain what you mean by 'locale', where, in which application etc
[18:39] <Rollin> i will try that nomodeset @ edbian .. anything else i should try? thanks
[18:40] <[1]user1> how do i assign a dns name to a ip
[18:40] <edbian> Rollin: Not off the top of my head
[18:40] <ries> MonkeyDust: that has nothing todo with a application, when I run locale, I don't see the locale I need, so I need to add it
[18:40] <MonkeyDust> ries: but what is a 'locale'?
[18:40] <gohdan> MonkeyDust: it is pretty clear what they are referring to. please refrain from offering assistance if you have no idea what people are talking about
[18:41] <nit-wit> thunder1212, you might consider fedora 15 if you like gnome3
[18:41] <ries> gohdan: thanks you...
[18:41] <MonkeyDust> gohdan: it is for future reference
[18:41] <weside> omichalek I had that same problem where I could not login :/
[18:41] <omichalek> I already tried "apt-get purge unity compiz" and reinstalling them, removing ~/.config, installing the proprietary nvidia-current but to no help...
[18:41] <thunder1212> i have just downloaded fedora 15
[18:42] <gohdan> ries: np. i was a bit irked from the "security" comment
[18:42] <omichalek> should I just try installing kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop etc.?
[18:42] <thunder1212>  but i am comfortable with apt and ubuntu
[18:42] <omichalek> weside did you solve it?
[18:42] <[1]user1> no one??
[18:43] <gohdan> MonkeyDust: locale refers to the language and regional settings such as fonts or translations etc
[18:44] <sleiv23> hello
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> gohdan: thank you, we're here to learn :)
[18:44] <edwardthefma> hello al
[18:44] <edwardthefma> all
[18:44] <weside> omichalek I had this issue in 11.04 when i did the upgrade install rather than a clean install, I could not fix it, I just ended up putting 10.10 back on.
[18:45] <edwardthefma> i need help enabling my wireless card
[18:45] <weside> I am kinda a linux n00b anyway.
[18:45] <edbian> edwardthefma: What card do you have?
[18:45] <edwardthefma> i think it is brodcom
[18:45] <edwardthefma> but im not for shure
[18:46] <edwardthefma> its a gatway lap top
[18:46] <omichalek> weside :/ this is a new install (with previous home partition)
[18:46] <F3ar> Everyone that's having problems with 11.04, did you upgrade or do a clean instal?
[18:46] <F3ar> install*
[18:46] <ZykoticK9> edwardthefma, from a terminal "lspci | grep -i net" might tell you
[18:46] <Rollin> upgrade, clean, now on another clean with blk login screen. trying the nomodeset fix. sigh
[18:46] <ries> MonkeyDust: I am a long time IRC user... and to point people directly to some bot is rude if you don't know what the essence of teh question is.
[18:46] <edbian> edwardthefma: can you pastebin sudo lspci -k for me?
[18:47] <ikonia> ries: it's a pretty reasonable thing to do to get your to explain a bit more
[18:47] <edbian> edwardthefma: I seem to have good luck with these cards
[18:48] <__yhvh__> hey in additional drivers, which is the most up to date driver http://i.imgur.com/B5YBV.png

[18:49] <Rollin> link to nomodeset for anyone else in need: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[18:49] <Foran> where can I get help? :) i am total noob :D
[18:49] <edbian> Foran: You're here.  Ask away
hold on
[18:49] <Rollin> foran ask your question, we will direct you
[18:49] <edbian> edwardthefma: holding...
[18:49] <ries> ikonia: if the question wasn't clear... but in this case the person didn't knew what a locale was/is and teh question by itself was clear 'How to add additional locales'
[18:49] <Foran> ok
[18:49] <Foran> I'm trying to instal ubuntu 11.04 from USB
[18:49] <Foran> and
[18:50] <Foran> when I boot from USB I gat some many
[18:50] <Foran> menu*
[18:50] <Foran> i can chose 5-6 options but just one works
[18:50] <ikonia> ries: to the system, the desktop, an application ?
[18:50] <Foran> (rescue system)
[18:50] <oCean> Foran: try to describe your issue in one single line
[18:50] <ikonia> ries: as in isntall them or configure the OS to use them (application/etc)
[18:50] <gohdan> MonkeyDust: fairy snuff. however,  it is advised to refrain from offering assistance in an area you are no versed in or have no experience whatsoever. as it decreases the credibility of future statements you make in that regard
[18:51] <ries> ikonia:
[18:51] <KM0201> Foran: stop hitting enter so much.. are you sure you're giving it lon enough to actually boot... it takes a minute or so (for me) after choosing the first option, for it to boot... if you select the first option (try ubuntu)... can you still use the arrow keys to highlight other menu options?.. if not, just wait, it's booting
[18:51] <Foran> So i installed it using that option "rescue system". installation was ok. and now i have Boot menu (Ubuntu and Windows 7)
[18:51] <ries> ikonia: I don't want to debate it but when people say 'How to add locale' it usually mean to the operating system.
[18:52] <KM0201> lol
[18:52] <PIn> guys type in "sudo shutdown -h 0" in console for a special message of ubuntu owner
[18:52] <ikonia> ries: no, I'm actually asking you what you want
[18:52] <Foran> When I chose Ubuntu, Black Screen is shown,
[18:52] <Foran> and nothing happens
[18:53] <ikonia> !locale | ries
[18:53] <ries> ikonia: I needed to add a additional locale, I know how to use them and apply them to applications
[18:53] <KM0201> PIn: thats not necessary
[18:53] <ikonia> ries: the link ubottu just gave you should help
[18:53] <Foran> It seems like some graphic problem, becouse i have some pink line on a midle that disapear in 5-6 seconds
[18:53] <ralc> hey guys - can i somehow see who made the last change to a file? or is that information not stored at all?
[18:53] <ries> ikonia: thanks....

[18:57] <ralc> __yhvh__, i've heard that if you ask to ask to ask you get triple the responses
[18:57] <weside> but that is OT
[18:57] <ikonia> weside: facebook in general is having a problem, it's not linux/windows/firefox/anything
[18:57] <edbian> maxx_: alsamixer    turn up various sliders, see what happens
[18:57]  * __yhvh__ :P
[18:57] <weside> I agree ikonia

[18:58] <rinkukokiri> ikonia, didn't know there was a 'no silly' rule her
[18:58] <rinkukokiri> *e
[18:58] <tomykontroll> Can someone helpme?
[18:58] <maxx_> full
[18:58] <EmuAlert> Would the most straightforward way to copy preferences be to copy over all the dotfiles in ~ and restart?
[18:58] <maxx_> more that 100%
[18:58] <ikonia> tomykontroll: just explain your problem and people will try
[18:58] <edbian> maxx_: I'm not sure. If the sliders are all up. Do you have a PCM slider?  That is usually a tricky one.
[18:59] <maxx_> yeah. I have a PCM slider
[18:59] <maxx_> it is also full

[18:59] <maxx_> both
[18:59] <tomykontroll> I have installed sucefully Ubuntu 11, used It, But before an update it dont boot anymore, After Grub I have the BusyBox
[18:59] <edbian> maxx_: IDK
[18:59] <edbian> maxx_: sorry! :(
[19:00] <Yud_Zroc> Tomy at login, swich your default desktop
[19:00] <syockit> EmuAlert: if you're sure that all progs are of the same version, then pretty much yes. But if you do it one by one, you get to prune off unneeded config files
[19:00] <ravage> savid: rsync, but rsync does not have any security. usually not that important in LAN
 http://pastebin.com/HfWW4mEp
[19:00] <maxx_> edbian: np. thanks anyways :)
[19:00] <savid> ravage: cool, thanks.
[19:00] <Yud_Zroc> (Where you click username/password) its at the bottom center
[19:01] <weside> is some people in here still using 10.04 or 10.10 rather than using 11.04, just curious?..
[19:01] <KM0201> !b43
[19:01] <KM0201> !broadcom
[19:01] <EmuAlert> syockit: Alright thanks
[19:01] <tomykontroll> Thanks Yud, th problems is that Grub not find the kernel, I have a message of missing sda
[19:01] <tomykontroll> But when I boot in Windows this device works
[19:01] <rww> !b43 is <alias> bcm43xx
[19:02] <tomykontroll> How I can respore/repair Grub from Windows?
[19:02] <ikonia> tomykontroll: you can't touch grub from windows
[19:02] <rinkukokiri> tomykontroll, you can use your live cd
[19:03] <cgroza> tomykontrol, you must use a live cd, I recommend puppy
[19:03] <KM0201> rww: :) i make that mistake all the time..lol
[19:03] <tomykontroll> I havent Live CD, I installed using WUBI
[19:03] <ikonia> tomykontroll: ignore what cgroza has just said
[19:03] <ikonia> tomykontroll: using a different distro to fix grub is a very bad idea and will most often end if failure
[19:03] <cgroza> ikonia, he has wubi anyway
[19:03] <nit-wit> tomykontroll, do you see the grub menu at powering on or the MS boot screen?
[19:03] <ikonia> so I see
[19:04] <tomykontroll> Thanks Ikonia
[19:04] <Yud_Zroc> Can't he just do thbe grub update command? He should be using grub2 no?
[19:04] <nit-wit> no
[19:04] <tomykontroll> I see the Windows slector for booting, before Grub
[19:04] <Yud_Zroc> Oh, forgot about wubi...lol outs my legue I only use grub
[19:04] <gantrixx> So if I wanted to buy a netbook and run Ubuntu 11.04 (with Unity) on it, what would you recommend?  Is there a graphics chipset that "just works" with Unity?
[19:05] <__yhvh__> gantrixx: intel
[19:05] <weside> no way nvidia
[19:05] <cgroza> gantrixx, get an NVidia.
[19:05] <Yud_Zroc> Well, grantrix get the netbook remix version
[19:05] <ravage> gantrixx: in general just don't use any ATI. Intel and NVIDIA work most of the time
[19:05] <gantrixx> __yhvh__, my old Dell mini 10 had the Intel chipset on it and I was never able to get it to work
[19:05] <weside> ATI hates linux LOL
[19:05] <sebastian> huhu
[19:05] <Yud_Zroc> Intel, and nvidia (nvidia has better performance 9/10 times
[19:05] <gantrixx> I do use the notebook remix version
[19:05] <sebastian> exit
[19:06] <Yud_Zroc> Weside, not entirly, you just need to fish out the right driver
[19:06] <ravage> weside: no but they just can't write good drivers for it
[19:06] <heffay> my ubuntu 11.04 suddenly stopped wanting to connect to a shared directory on my network. the error messages said it failed to get the share list from the server.
[19:06] <__yhvh__> gantrixx: well I have nvidia and can't run unity
[19:06] <Sanctusorium> Hey ya.  I am running a fresh Server 10.10 install.  How do I upgrade to 11 through console?
[19:06] <nit-wit> tomykontroll, look in this thread and post the bootscript as suggested in the thread if you can't fix it. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198
[19:06] <gantrixx> It seems that Ubuntu is leading the hardware
[19:06] <ravage> __yhvh__: the closed source driver should work for really every nvidia card
[19:07] <gantrixx> and that is probably why Dell stopped selling netbooks with Ubuntu NBR pre-installed
[19:07] <tomykontroll> Ok ... Thanks Nit-Wit
[19:07] <Sanctusorium> I did apt-get dist-upgrade, but lsb_release -a says I am still running 10.1
[19:07] <nit-wit> tomykontroll, no problem it is probably an easy fix.
[19:07] <__yhvh__> ravage: not here, dual head tho
[19:07] <rinkukokiri> i got dual heads and unity hates it
[19:07] <rinkukokiri> actually.. .i hate unity :D
[19:07] <Yud_Zroc> I still stick with gnome
[19:07] <weside> I have an Intel video chipset, so far with every linux distro i tried it works just fine, i just know nVidia cards works better for games etc.
[19:08] <gantrixx> I'm running 11.04 on my desktop and I opted to go back to straight gnome
[19:08] <ravage> rinkukokiri: you are not alone ;)
[19:08] <gantrixx> I think there isn't a one size fits all solution
[19:08] <gantrixx> desktops are desktops, tablets are tablets
[19:08] <oCean> let's get back on topic ok?
[19:08] <gantrixx> the topic of Ubuntu?
[19:08] <Yud_Zroc> Cyonical is just doing what it has to, to adapt
[19:08] <heffay> samba? anyone?
[19:08] <oCean> gantrixx: support, not discussion
[19:09] <nit-wit> this is not a  ubuntu chat
[19:09] <__yhvh__> oCean: so can you answer my driver Q?
[19:09] <gantrixx> oh, I thought this is where I come to ask questions
[19:09] <rinkukokiri> ok.. how do I uninstall unity completely, i don't want it
[19:09] <Yud_Zroc> Sorry
[19:09] <oCean> __yhvh__: nope, maybe someone else
[19:09] <piaoliu> hello
[19:09] <nit-wit> gantrixx, sure but mindless fud is not appreciatted.
[19:09] <Yud_Zroc> Yhvh what's your q?
[19:09] <oCean> gantrixx: use #ubuntu-offtopic for general discussion
[19:09] <__yhvh__> hey in additional drivers, which is the most up to date driver http://i.imgur.com/B5YBV.png
[19:10] <piaoliu> 605796974
[19:10] <Yud_Zroc> The one that's recomended
[19:10] <rinkukokiri> __yhvh__, version current
[19:10] <oCean> piaoliu: do you have a support question?
[19:10] <__yhvh__> cheers, is that documented anywhere?
[19:10] <Yud_Zroc> 173 is like a year + old
[19:10] <ravage> __yhvh__: i think they are the same. current is just the mete package
[19:10] <oCean> !who | Yud_Zroc
[19:11] <rinkukokiri> ravage, actually.   173 is 173, version current is like 185 or something
[19:11] <Yud_Zroc> Ocean I cant
[19:11] <oCean> Yud_Zroc: yes you can, don't be silly
[19:11] <ravage> rinkukokiri: right. checked that in apt
[19:11] <Yud_Zroc> I'm on my cellphone
[19:11] <ravage> i think 173 is for the older legacy cards
[19:11] <ravage> they dropped support for the really old ones
[19:11] <ravage> in 18x
[19:12] <heffay> my ubuntu 11.04 suddenly stopped wanting to connect to a shared directory on my network. the error messages said it failed to get the share list from the server.
[19:12] <thunder1212> hi, i want to do manual partitioning; i have a doubt; if i create a separate /home partition ;does it ensure that my data remains safe even when i switch os; say i switch from ubuntu to fedora or vice versa
[19:12] <piaoliu> 这是什么平台
[19:12] <rinkukokiri> !cn
[19:13] <ikonia> thunder1212: it doesn't make it "safe"
[19:13] <sup0> heffay: is the server you're trying to connect to running windows? you might need to disable the windows firewall
[19:13] <NictraSavios> thunder1212, It dose not garentee it, ofcourse if your not looking at you format the partition, its gone.
[19:13] <ikonia> thunder1212: it just means it's a seperate partition, how you use that is up to you
[19:13] <heffay> no its running debian
[19:13] <heffay> windows boxes have no problem connecting to the share
[19:13] <NictraSavios> thunder1212, I would suggest you still do backups. And NEVER have 2 OS with the exact same username share the /home , If you have 2, use different usernames
[19:13] <piaoliu> 有什么方法学会使用这系统

[19:14] <nit-wit> ! cn | piaoliu
[19:14] <cgroza> sorry, accident
[19:14] <weside> Question: if Ubuntu is based off Debian, then how come I read that they are not really compatible?.
[19:14] <pozic> ikonia: I mean that I do not use the /home user data.
[19:14] <pozic> ikonia: er lose
[19:14] <NictraSavios> thunder1212, use dejadup to keep backups.
[19:14] <ravage> pozic: at least the alternate installer should recognize your lvm volumes. so you can "reuse" them
[19:14] <ikonia> pozic: that's quite hit and miss, it really depends how it goes
[19:15] <sup0> heffay: have you tried opening the share with smb://192.xxx.xxx.xxx (ip address) in firefox and seeing if you can connect that way?
[19:15] <ikonia> pozic: if the volume group data is sane, yes, you can, if not no
[19:15] <alvinPH> hello, how can i install prism? i'm running xubuntu 11.03
[19:15] <NictraSavios> thunder1212, Or make a 3rd partiton mounted as /media/Shared to keep music and all that. That way you can format /home and / and your data is still safe.
[19:15] <cgroza> weside, ubuntu made a lot of changes so they are not binary compatible rigt now.
[19:15] <pozic> ravage: the livecd doesn't do that?
[19:15] <alvinPH> hello, how can i install prism? i'm running xubuntu 11.04*
[19:15] <sup0> heffay: you can also do that in natilus probably, not sure
[19:15] <rinkukokiri> how do I uninstall unity completely, i don't want it
[19:15] <ikonia> pozic: normally a vgscan will find the old volume group, and as loong as you don't do a pvcreate on the device, it should be fine
[19:15] <heffay> sup8: i have and it wont work
[19:15] <ravage> pozic: not sure. but the livecd uses the fancy GUI setup. i don't know if the partiton tool is that advanced there
[19:15] <heffay> i dont have natilus
[19:15] <NictraSavios> thunder1212, Remember, your data means everything to you, Daily backups and monthy DVD backups would not be anywhere close to overkill.
[19:16] <ikonia> pozic: does that make sense to you ?
