[13:12] <at05gt> well the adapter works as far as i can see the networks around me the issue is i have no access

[13:12] <steets> Where should I go for help on the following problem: I am running 10.10 on HP Pavilion dm1 netbook. I was updating from repositories. Update froze. Restart ended with frozen gdm. Restart in rescue mode also freezes. Any suggestions?
[13:12] <at05gt> i go and put in my WEP and it just cycles and never connects
[13:12] <Gangrel> anyone can help me with my adhoc creation problem?
[13:12] <at05gt> where would i get a different network manager?
[13:13] <aretrfre34> Gangrel:go ahead and post
[13:13] <DarkStar1> at05gt: a sec
[13:13] <oDesk> !monit
[13:13] <at05gt> DarkStar1 thanks for the help its appreciated
[13:14] <DarkStar1> at05gt: np dude. We're all here to help in one way or another
[13:14] <maedox> rockhopper, I don't have that... but there is a package called usb-modeswitch. sudo dpkg-reconfigure usb-modeswitch - or maybe reinstall it.
[13:14] <Gangrel> ok lets begin : I have followed this guide http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-an-adhoc-host-with-ubuntu.html that everyone suggests and here comes the problem.... i try to host using my desktop pc so that my laptop with win7 can connect but it is not visible
[13:15] <rockhopper> maedox, I tried reinstalling usb-modeswitch, But that doesn't help me!
[13:16] <maedox> rockhopper, sudo apt-get purge usb-modeswitch and then install it again.
[13:16] <rockhopper> ok
[13:16] <AnthLee> rockhopper try aptitude purge usb-modeswitch
[13:16] <aretrfre34> maedox!
[13:16] <AnthLee> then aptitude install usb-modeswitch
[13:16] <Sander^work> Anyone know if linux-image-2.6.32-31-server_2.6.32-21.32_amd64.deb in 10.04 is using the hyper v IC 2.1 ?
[13:17] <maedox> aretrfre34, what's up?
[13:17] <yrth> I can't install adobe flashplugin, got some conflicting packages error, but I don't know which ones... E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install.
[13:17] <theMalloc> I upgraded from karmic to lucid and now some windows (nautilus) are not skinned any more. Is this a known problem?
[13:17] <Sander^work> Or latest 10.04 kernel
[13:18] <abhijit> how to insatll ap from playdeb in terminal?
[13:18] <Sander^work> Wondring if the hyper v drivers which is rolled into 2.6.35 also exist in latest 10.04 kernel.
[13:18] <Gangrel> aretrfre34 ok lets begin : I have followed this guide http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-an-adhoc-host-with-ubuntu.html that everyone suggests and here comes the problem.... i try to host using my desktop pc so that my laptop with win7 can connect but it is not visible
[13:18] <DarkStar1> at05gt: KDE or gnome btw?
[13:19] <at05gt> i believe gnome
[13:19] <at05gt> im using lucid
[13:19] <Sander^work> Make it simpler: Does latest 10.04 kernel have code which only exist in 2.6.35 ?
[13:19] <aretrfre34> Gangrel:ubuntu won!
[13:20] <at05gt> DarkStar1: so far from my foum research it appears the USB-ID is missing from the driver files and people are having to recompile to fix it, which is beyond my abilities at this time
[13:20] <Sander^work> I assume ubuntu patches it latest 2.6.32 kernel with things from later kernels.. or am I worng?
[13:20] <ectospasm> Sander^work: that's not a safe assumption
[13:21] <AnthLee> no they just ship a new kernel
[13:21] <ectospasm> Sander^work: this isn't Red Hat, et al.
[13:21] <AnthLee> from kernel.org after some testing
[13:21] <DarkStar1> aaahh so the problem may actually be a driver issue as opposed to a system issue. Can you post me a link of one of these forums?

[13:21] <craig-t> hi guys, I've been trying to get a server up an running with virtualbox with no luck.. I've installed ubuntu 10.04.. but still can't access the server from my host os (win7)
[13:21] <at05gt> second one has links to the proper drivers
[13:22] <King_Lui> Hello, ive a problem with the Virtualguestadditions ad ubuntu 10.10 beta. Has anybody some experiences with this fact.?
[13:22] <Gangrel> aretrfre34 tried with installed ubuntu on laptop and still not working
[13:22] <ectospasm> craig-t: what do you mean "access?"
[13:22] <Sander^work> ectospasm, So both options is possible?
[13:22] <craig-t> well access the server through a web browser.
[13:22] <ectospasm> Sander^work: yes, but it's more likely not in the current Ubuntu kernels.
[13:23] <TiNRiB> craig-t: are you using bridged mode networking?
[13:23] <craig-t> TiNRiB, yup..
[13:23] <TiNRiB> can you ping IP?
[13:23] <ectospasm> craig-t: is the Ubuntu guest running a service that responds on port 80
[13:23] <ectospasm> ?
[13:24] <craig-t> ectospasm, I'm not sure?
[13:24] <ectospasm> craig-t: by default, Ubuntu doesn't have any services running, including httpd on port 80
[13:25] <ectospasm> craig-t: what are you trying to do with the Ubuntu guest?
[13:25] <craig-t> oh.. how do I start those? i've installed apache..
[13:25] <ectospasm> craig-t: service apache start, or service httpd start (can't remember which)
[13:26] <ectospasm> craig-t: service apache2 start
[13:26] <ectospasm> ...had to look it up
[13:26] <Sander^work> ectospasm, what does "built-in kernel modules" mean?
[13:27] <ectospasm> Sander^work: it means drivers that are built into the kernel, as opposed to loadable and unloadable modules (typically in /lib/modules/...)
[13:28] <linuxson26> Having some difficulty with my screen resolution in Karmic
[13:28] <theMalloc> Hi all together. Can anyone help me? I upgraded from karmic to lucid and now I have some problems with themes. In some programs the mouse pointer and windows are not displayed in the theme I have set up. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?
[13:28] <odb|fidel> theMalloc: using a lucid theme?
[13:29] <theMalloc> Yes. Default theme.
[13:30] <kstern> question: I'm running 10.04 32-Bit. I plugged in an external monitor and it was recognized right away. How do I make the external monitor the "default" monitor and the laptop monitor the "secondary" display?

[13:31] <ectospasm> Sander^work: yes, as opposed to [m]
[13:31] <Sander^work> ectospasm, ok.. then I got that term right :-)
[13:32] <Sander^work> ectospasm, very strange.. seems like hyper v drivers from the staging tree actually is compiled into latest 10.04
[13:32] <theMalloc> odb|fidel: Yes.  I have the problem with the default lucid theme, and also with the themes I used with karmic
[13:32] <michal1> jrib: i've reinstalled system back and taskbar is back.

[13:35] <michal1> maedox: my sound works only on external speakers. already checked there's no mute anywhere. my girlfriend says she wants to switch back to windows:( really need help.
[13:35] <TiNRiB> the theme issue is common in ubuntu. the .gnome2 config files in your home directory don't get changed correctly.
[13:35] <TiNRiB> search for it on google.
[13:35] <theMalloc> Vercingetorix: Yes. Does not change anything.
[13:35] <yrth> michal1, change girlfriends ;-)
[13:35] <strep> hi again, my problem's getting worse, i can't create a new folder on the desktop :/
[13:35] <michal1> haha
[13:36] <bazhang> yrth, thats not helpful. please stay on topic
[13:36] <maedox> michal1, Alright, so it works, just not in the right speaker. Did you try menu: System -> Preferences -> Sound -> Input/output?
[13:36] <maedox> michal1, You should be able to change which devices to use for what there.
[13:36] <theMalloc> TiNRiB: Is this an upgrade issue or an common issue?

[13:37] <DarkStar1> Sander^work: uname -a doesn't work?
[13:38] <Sander^work> DarkStar1, I'm talking about the version of hyper v kernel modules in latest 10.04
[13:38] <nouitfvf> yes!!!

[13:46] <fixxxermet> Don't think so Pici

[13:46] <airtonix> craig-t, 1. windows will only know about hostnames of other machines on a layer 3 level if you have a dns server or windows has the bonjour services installed
[13:47] <yeastwars> is there a way to display desktop icons on both monitors when in a dual monitor setup
[13:47] <airtonix> craig-t, 2. or if you manually add the hostnames to c:\windows\system32\drivers\hosts (i think thats where it is)
[13:47] <undecim> I nearly have my perfect encryption setup. My root partition is encrypted with luks/dm-crypt, and using a 2kb partition (/dev/sdb1) as the keyfile. When booting, I get dropped to busybox and have to type "cryptsetup --key-file /dev/sdb1 luksOpen /dev/sda1 root; exit" to boot. How can I get this partition unlocked automatically?
[13:47] <Phizzywhizz> Ndiswrapper...I've seen some stuff about that. Will I still need to place files in root?
[13:47] <yeastwars> and is there a way to make windows appear on the monitor in which my mouse is instead of always defaulting to the left one?
[13:47] <fixxxermet> Pici: Still no go :(
[13:47] <Quantum_Ion> philinux, When I look in the directory cd /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/ this is what I have now 05-evdev.conf  10-synaptics.conf  10-vmmouse.conf  10-wacom.conf
[13:48] <airtonix> craig-t, the hostnames you see in windows explorer is only WINS names and are not recognised outside of SMB protocol
[13:48] <philinux> Quantum_Ion: same here. No worries
[13:48] <Quantum_Ion> philinux, What happened to the old xorg.conf file ?
[13:48] <abhijit> !source | Sander^work
[13:49] <philinux> Quantum_Ion: still in same place. But you might not have one at all.
[13:49] <airtonix> craig-t, easiest way is to install "bonjour services for windows" on all your windows machines so that they can see the hostname advertisement broadcasts Avahi on your ubuntu machine sends out
[13:49] <jfer> Phizzywhizz: a full guide is available at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[13:49] <Pici> fixxxermet: Are there any lines in /var/log/auth.log for cron for when you expect it to run?
[13:49] <maedox> fixxxermet, is the script running when you execute it manually?
[13:50] <Quantum_Ion> philinux, I used to use the Linux generated version of an xorg.conf file to use it on FreeBSD but I cannot do that anymore for my computer
[13:50] <fixxxermet> Pici: I run it as a user (no sudo or privileges) but no, nothing there.  maedox Yes it is
[13:50] <fixxxermet> Pici: Cron daemon wasn't running :-p

[13:59] <razz1> i just logged out of a ssh session and cannot log back on, says connection timed out. I know that the remote system is online, i can ping it. Anyone know how I can reset ssh connections. There is no one at the remote system
[13:59] <b0ot> I have tried modifiying things in visudo, but i must not be doing it correctly
[14:00] <bazhang> b0ot, why would you want to do that
[14:00] <maedox> b0ot, bad idea ;-)
[14:00] <airtonix> NeoCicak, sudo service network-manager restart && killall gnome-panel && killall nm-applet && nm-applet
[14:00] <b0ot> bazhang, bash scripts that need sudo access
[14:00] <topyli> NeoCicak, you probably removed the entire notification area from your panel. right click an empty spot on the applet, add the notification area
[14:00] <b0ot> maedox, do you know of a way to input sudo passwords in a bash script?
[14:00] <maedox> b0ot, NOPASSWD placed in the correct place will get you sudo anything without password.
[14:00] <neil_d> I am having trouble with wicd... It isn't running the scripts I have setup... is there any special needs of the scripts?   like being readable only by root etc.
[14:01] <maedox> b0ot, run them with /etc/crontab as root, then you can sudo to whatever in the script.
[14:01] <philinux> Quantum_Ion: You might get better help here. http://forums.freebsd.org/
[14:01] <b0ot> maedox, i tried that with visudo, but no luck

[14:05] <thesuliban1980> also: I can not use easystroke to record any geistures....
[14:05] <DarkStar1> at05gt: what happens when you try to connect?
[14:05] <thesuliban1980> keeping the finger on the the screen is equal to keep the lkeft mouse-button pressed

[14:12] <phimic> is there a solution for this problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1507504
[14:12] <AnthLee> nevropus http://smxi.org/
[14:12] <sipior> NevroPus: depends. price you pay for using drivers outside the purview of the distribution.
[14:12] <at05gt> DarkStar1: its no big man, ill just go back to dealing with vista
[14:13] <kishon> bazhang: what does it means??
[14:13] <bazhang> kishon, thats the channel for maverick support   #ubuntu+1
[14:13] <AnthLee> nevropus Some nice features of that are if you install a new kernel with smxi, smxi will retain that data, then send it to sgfxi, which allows you to install the video driver to the new kernel prior to rebooting, which lets you do a full system upgrade prior to rebooting.
[14:13] <Sander^work> Does this statement mean that LIC 2.1 version of hyper v drivers might be included in latest 10.04?: Kernel updates apply as always to security updates and critical bugs. In addition, simple, obvious, quick or hardware relevant patches should be delivered so long as the next release is not yet in Beta form. Also, more updates will be moved upstream.

[14:45] <bazhang> Sander^work, not in a supported manner, no

[14:47] <apw> Sander^work, not with the latest upstream versions no
[14:47] <Sander^work> bazhang, my problem is.. that I dont know what ubuntu include in the latest kernel.. is there a way of checking that?
[14:47] <apw> Sander^work, why do you need mainline kernels over the ubuntu offerings?
[14:48] <Sander^work> apw, because I want the latest hyperv LIC 2.1 which is included in 3.6.35.. 2.0 is included in 2.6.32
[14:48] <Sander^work> 2.0 is included in 2.6.32 mainline
[14:48] <apw> Sander^work, so the maverick kernel is v2.6.35 based, you could try the lts-backports kernel
[14:48] <philinux> Sander^work: 2.6.32 is the current 10.04 kernel

[14:49] <Pici> mbeierl: You aren't identified either.
[14:49] <bazhang> mbeierl, no, once you identify, that is
[14:49] <apw> Sander^work, but in general the mainline kernels are for testing only they are not recommended or supported for ongoing use; we do not even verify they boot
[14:50] <philinux> Sander^work: 10.10 is now using 2.6.35-21
[14:50] <mbeierl> Pici: how is it that I am not identified?  I've got a registered nick and set it up in pidgin to sign me in?

[14:50] <look> has 10.10 been released officialy?
[14:50] <rww> mbeierl: well, you didn't do it right, then, because you're not identified.
[14:50] <rww> look: no, next month.
[14:50] <look> not just in beta?
[14:50] <bazhang> look, no
[14:50] <look> rww: ok thought i had missed something
[14:51] <Sander^work> apw, philinux: cool.. where can I read about the lts-backported kernel?
[14:51] <mbeierl> rww:  oh?  how do I do it "right" then?
[14:51] <philinux> Sander^work: No idea but you could ask in here. http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=385
[14:51] <Sander^work> apw, is lts-backported kernels tested.. that they boot?
[14:51] <apw> Sander^work, it is not yet officially in the archive, it cannot be until release but it does exist in the kernel-ppa user's actual PPA in launchpad
[14:51] <look> mbeierl: when you log into freenode use /msg NickServ identify <password>
[14:51] <rww> mbeierl: no idea, I don't use pidgin. In irssi, you put ":username password" as the server password.
[14:52] <apw> Sander^work, the lts-backports kernel does indeed get tested as it is the maverick kernel
[14:52] <look> mbeierl: i would recommend Xchat for an IRC client
[14:52] <mbeierl> look and rww: I've already done that.  must be a bug in pidgin then that it's not re-registering me.

[14:58] <mbeierl> Sorry to go ot, but according to unregged, "We are experiencing technical difficulties" and it's no longer accepting my nick/password.  Where do I go for help, please?
[14:58] <look> hawodi: try this, don't know if it will work or if it has information relating but http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/94/
[14:58] <hawodi> It defaults to initramfs prompt!
[14:58] <look> hawodi: pull the plug
[14:59] <Maf> 'afternoon
[14:59] <look> hawodi: reboot, then try again...there might be a problem with the install
[14:59] <rafaelmfp> mbeierl: /msg nickserv help
[15:00] <rafaelmfp> Any alternative programs to print pdf instead of CUPS-PDF?
[15:00] <Maf> Can someone please give me a sound opinion to someone installing Ubuntu server for the first time?
[15:00] <Sander^work> How do I get the add-apt-repository command in 10.04 ?
[15:00] <look> rafaelmfp: try this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PDF_software
[15:01] <RanyAlbeg> I use Pidgin to connect to IRC servers and I want to remove it and install an IRC software that is devoted only to IRC.Any recommendations of a good one?
[15:01] <AnthLee> xchat
[15:01] <ShredMaster> look:
[15:01] <ShredMaster> sudo apt-get install timidity timidity-interfaces-extra
[15:01] <Oer> irssi
[15:02] <ShredMaster> look: but it says "file not found"
[15:02] <ShredMaster> "Package"
[15:02] <ikonia> qwert: they are tottally different products and do nothing like the same thing
[15:02] <look> ShredMaster: use synaptic then.
[15:02] <RanyAlbeg> AnthLee: thanks.
[15:02] <ShredMaster> look: how
[15:02] <AnthLee> np
[15:03] <philinux> Sander^work: Example = sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chromium-daily
[15:04] <look> your menu at the top left hand corner, System -> Admin -> synaptic package manager, i think thats where it is
[15:04] <ShredMaster> look: ok
[15:04] <Sander^work> philinux, I found out: sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
[15:04] <apw> Sander^work, it has the same updates applied as maverick, though it may be 1-2 days behind
[15:04] <look> ShredMaster: if not then keep looking, its in the system menu
[15:05] <Sander^work> apw, cool.. thanks for your help :-)
[15:07] <Maf> has anyone here set up Ubuntu Server as a new build purely for file shares (Sage) printers and fax server for 7 Win7 workstations?  I just want an indication of how difficult it'd be.  Alternative is MSserver2003 - which I want to move away from - only if it wont cause too many problems
[15:07] <ikonia> Maf: doddle if the hardware is supported
[15:07] <look> Maf: its not to difficult if you know what your doing in the first place
[15:08] <Cantide> can anyone help with usb-modeswitch on Ubuntu 9.04 ?
[15:08] <Maf> well, I've got 8.04 desktop installed and runing with no probs before on home system
[15:08] <maco> Maf: #ubuntu-server is more likely to have people who know about servers
[15:08] <look> Maf: allthough i have not done, a print server or a fax server, i have done file share servers, (ftp samba)
[15:09] <ikonia> Maf: ubuntu desktop is a good os to use as a server
[15:09] <AnthLee> no
[15:09] <AnthLee> its not
[15:10] <ikonia> yes it i
[15:10] <ikonia> is
[15:10] <maedox> ^^
[15:10] <sipior> powerful arguments, on both sides.
[15:10] <ikonia> it's a very stable OS that is an excellent platform as a server
[15:10] <lk> i think it is ok
[15:10] <Maf> ok thanks for tips
[15:10] <Maf> I'm not scared of installing it
[15:10] <look> ikonia: it may be, but if you look at it this way, the desktop was made for regular users, not server implementaion
[15:10] <DarkStar1> anyone having trouble loading up www.pastebin.org ?
[15:10] <ikonia> Maf: you've already got desktop installed, use that, it' solid
[15:10] <Maf> but: I do have to do it and have it up and runing over a weekend
[15:11] <ikonia> look: then you have no idea what you're talking about
[15:11] <maedox> learn to use ufw and you should be set no matter which you select, server or desktop.
[15:11] <look> ikonia: what ever you say
[15:11] <sipior> look: the differences are very minor, practically speaking.
[15:12] <erUSUL> Maf: samba can serve shares and printers ( sups can be shared via cups too install IPP driver in windows boxes http://www.owlfish.com/thoughts/winipp-cups-2003-07-20.html ) . the fax server may need a little bit more tinkering ...
[15:12] <Maf> and is it easy to get it to operate as a domain that Win7 users could connect to?
[15:12] <philinux> DarkStar1: Yep
[15:12] <ikonia> Maf: that's a lot more tricky
[15:12] <erUSUL> Maf: printers* can be shared ....
[15:12] <ikonia> Maf: but very do-able if your confident with what you're doing and understand the basics
[15:12] <DarkStar1> philinux: Thanks. It's not just me then
[15:12] <Maf> I dont mind getting my hands dirty
[15:13] <Maf> but I dont want to end up with a big paperweight on monday morning and no systems connecting :)
[15:13] <erUSUL> !ebox
[15:13] <Maf> yes, I've looked at ebox, thanks
[15:14] <maedox> Maf, do backups along the way to be safe.
[15:14] <philinux> DarkStar1: I can ping it ok. It must be down though
[15:14] <AnthLee> debian is a better server
[15:14] <Maf> oh yes, will do thanks
[15:14] <AnthLee> centos is probably even better than that
[15:14] <AnthLee> gentoo slackware honestly I can think of alot of things that do servers better than ubuntu =/
[15:14] <ikonia> AnthLee: please stop talking nonsense
[15:15] <AnthLee> never used arch but i'd try it before putting ubuntu on a server
[15:15] <look> ikonia: we all have our views, nonsense or not, its their choice
[15:15] <DarkStar1> philinux: I'm just goingto use the .com for the time being
[15:15] <maedox> There are thousand of people who will disagree :D
[15:15] <sipior> ikonia: that's a bit heavy-handed.
[15:15] <ikonia> look: everyone is entitled to views, no issues, but just stating nonsense to people with no-substance is not welcome
[15:15] <AnthLee> that was not non-sense that was truth ubuntu is fine as a desktop os but as a server?
[15:15] <philinux> DarkStar1: Or this http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[15:16] <ikonia> AnthLee: please explain to me something that gentoo can do as a server that is better than ubuntu ?
[15:16] <AnthLee> specifically running the desktop version instead of the server edition for a server is bad advice
[15:16] <ikonia> AnthLee: why
[15:16] <ikonia> AnthLee: please explain why
[15:16] <sipior> AnthLee: ikonia: look: gentlemen, the discussion is off-topic in this channel. i can recommend you continue it in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[15:16] <AnthLee> its full of pork
[15:16] <Maf> thanks for all of your views, I need to delve deeper into the auth issues I think before I commit
[15:16] <ikonia> AnthLee: again - please stop talking nonsense "full of pork" is nonsense
[15:16] <look> sipior: i agree, which is why i stopped talking
[15:17] <AnthLee> and possibly more security vulnerabilities then other competing server distros since its built off debian unstable that does not have a security team
[15:17] <ikonia> AnthLee: possibly - you mean you don't know, so I'll say this again unless you "know" don't talk nonsense to people
[15:17] <jpds> AnthLee: Ubuntu has its own security team, and is based off stable Debian unstable.
[15:18] <Cantide> can anyone help with usb-modeswitch on Ubuntu 9.04 ?
[15:18] <jpds> AnthLee: It also has solid LTS releases which are used by companies, etc.
[15:18] <hawodi> still no luck.
[15:19] <mbeierl> rafaelmfp: nickserv cannot give me any relevant help, sorry.  It's claiming my password is invalid.  I've had this account regged for over a year now and not had problems.  Where else can one go for help?
[15:20] <progre55> hey guys. I was installing ubuntu server from an installation cd, but after a restart it falls to (initramfs) saying "Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems: .... etc". Any suggestions, please?
[15:20] <Friar> so what is up with the floodbots asking you to enter a letter?
[15:20] <AndrewMC> mbeierl: for help with the network you should go to #freenode
[15:21] <mbeierl> AndrewMC: Thanks!
[15:21] <rafaelmfp> mbeierl: join #freenode, i just did and they reseted my password. It's fast and easy. Just state your problem there.
[15:21] <erUSUL> Friar: so you leave the limbo and enter the real channel
[15:21] <erUSUL> Friar: to avoid bots
[15:21] <mbeierl> rafaelmfp: thanks - that's what I need then!

[15:36] <rapage> I like to know what is the netstat command to see listening ports on my ubuntu 10
[15:36] <Cantide> sipior: would you mind if i gave you some links in PM so you can see what i'm doing?
[15:36] <rapage> Hell america, I like to know what is the netstat command to see listening ports on my ubuntu 10
[15:36] <Cantide> what i'm trying to do rather :)
[15:36] <sipior> Cantide: sure, go ahead.
[15:36] <rapage> hello
[15:37] <\DSAFEW\> rapage, netstat -a
[15:37] <rapage> \DSAFEW\, it's too big, the terminal shows like 100 lines
[15:37] <rapage> something not filtering?
[15:38] <\DSAFEW\> rapage, netstat -a |less
[15:39] <rapage> \DSAFEW\, ther'es like 20 listernig ports?
[15:39] <mbeierl> ok, question: I've got 900m free according to system monitor and top, yet my system is swapping a lot (swapd is io bound) with 80% wait state.  how do I figure this out?
[15:39] <rapage> why is dat? I'm not hosting any server
[15:39] <Pici> rapage: netstat -tanp   is probably a better report.
[15:39] <rileyp>  is the 256  nvidia driver all good for mythtv and xbmc or are there still problems? I'm using 195 at the moment
[15:40] <sipior> rapage: if you're only interested in listening ports, replace -a with -l.
[15:41] <\DSAFEW\> rapage, you might be looking at the local services which are not open to the outside, pici has a command for you
[15:41] <progre55> hey guys. I was installing ubuntu server from an installation cd, but after a restart it falls to (initramfs) saying "Gave up waiting for root device.

[15:52] <tricaric> hi guys, what's the best IRC channel to ask a  DSL modem question?? tx!
[15:52] <squaregoldfish> Using dns-masq as a DHCP server, is it possible to get a list of all currently leased IP addresses?
[15:52] <BluesKaj> Kristiina, what are you trying to do ?
[15:53] <coz_> i have to break here... be back later
[15:53] <BluesKaj> tricaric, depends on the question
[15:53] <abhijit> hi
[15:54] <BluesKaj> !ask |tricaric
[15:54] <tricaric> I need to know if it is possible to move a dsl modem from a home to another home, temporarily, where the two homes have different phone numbers
[15:54] <Kristiina> :) yes. nothing muted. i want to speak to my parents, i'm far from home and lonely. my mic not working, i found that i need to type 'gstreamer-properties' to find out the settings buy i'm getting this:
[15:54] <abhijit> tricaric, yes
[15:54] <\DSAFEW\> tricaric, that is a question for the ISP, maybe have info on broadbandreports.com
[15:54] <rapage> iceroot,
[15:54] <rapage> I
[15:55] <neil_d> I am having trouble getting samba mounts and wifi working together... everything I try seems to be a dead end... ether something doesn't work... or it crashes... I have had one of those days.
[15:55] <rapage> iceroot, I have system upgrade on gui like the ubuntu upgrade software thing I guess its da same
[15:55] <abhijit> tricaric, i think you need same ISP to do that and with same modem number try asking in  ##hardware
[15:55] <BluesKaj> tricaric,  it's possible aslong as both homes are using the same ISP
[15:55] <Kristiina> no plugins for "artsdsink''esdsink''glimagesink''sdlvideosink''v4lmjpegs''qcamsrc''esdmon'
[15:56] <Quantum_Ion> Kristiina, What country are you from ?

[15:58] <juliusb> Hi everyone - I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of information on the correct way to package a cross-compiler to be installed in Ubuntu? Particularly we're not sure about which sysroot path to use, and what the standard convention for adding your own is. Does anyone nkow where I could find information on this, or the right people who might know?
[15:58] <Pici> juliusb: #ubuntu-packaging or #ubuntu-motu
[15:58] <juliusb> Pici: Ok thanks.
[15:58] <BluesKaj> rapage, this isn't windows
[15:58] <squaregoldfish> qbitza: thx
[15:59] <AnthLee> a firewall is recommended though
[15:59] <AnthLee> I also recommend wearing a tin foil hat and a cup at all times =)
[15:59] <AnthLee> but I take the better safe than sorry stance
[15:59] <tricaric> \join ##hardware
[15:59] <BluesKaj> AnthLee, not real necessary if you're behind a properly configured router
[16:00] <Kristiina> BluesKaj: you know what this may be :no plugins for "artsdsink''esdsink''glimagesink''sdlvideosink''v4lmjpegs''qcamsrc''esdmon'
[16:00] <AnthLee> nobody is behind a properly configured router though
[16:00] <eva> anyone know how to get a samsung es15 camera to work in ubuntu f-sopt dont find the camera
[16:00] <AnthLee> my isp set mine up and didnt give me a password
[16:00] <AnthLee> I had to brute force it to set it up right
[16:00] <abhijit> tricaric, /j ##hardware
[16:00] <AnthLee> =/
[16:00] <eva> f-spot
[16:01] <BluesKaj> Kristiina, , consult your package manager withn those apps/libs , to find out
[16:01] <bobstro> BluesKaj:  i don't think that's so true anymore.
[16:01] <bobstro> BluesKaj:  so much web-borne crap and all
[16:01] <eva> and the 15 gig sd card can i not opend i dont have the right athoried
[16:01] <AnthLee> rapage I suggest installing firestarter and setting it to start at boot
[16:01] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Take the SD card out of the Digital Camera and insert it into the computer slot
[16:02] <eva> ok
[16:02] <AnthLee> its the easiest firewall gui I know of for linux
[16:02] <neil_d> AnthLee: As long as the external interface has a good firewall... we www.grc.com/  see there shieldsup service
[16:02] <AnthLee> neil most routers are not setup properly from the factory
[16:02] <BluesKaj> bobstro, I wasn't talking about windows machines
[16:03] <AnthLee> or installed by isp whos leave them improperly done .. there are whole botnets made out of routers
[16:03] <uRock> My ubuntu 10.04 just locked up and when I restarted, it went to a black screen saying "init not found" what do I do?
[16:03] <neil_d> AnthLee: as far as a firewall goes yes... but other things like PnP need to be turned off.
[16:04] <eva> Quantum_Ion it say cant mount it
[16:04] <Quantum_Ion> eva, why can't it mount it
[16:05] <fasta> How can I mount a usb-key as if I just put it in with the auto-mounter?
[16:05] <Kristiina> BLuesKaj: i'm not sure how to find them. i checked everything is up to date. external speakers work, just the internal is not working.
[16:05] <fasta> So, I already umounted it after the automounter mounted it.
[16:05] <eva> Quantum_Ion it say not authorized
[16:05] <fasta> I just want to remount it.
[16:06] <neil_d> fasta: on my system its mount in the /media/ directory under wierd series of numbers.
[16:06] <Quantum_Ion> eva, What kind of SD card is it ?
[16:06] <eva> Quantum_Ion lexar gig
[16:06] <BluesKaj> Kristiina, describe your problem exactly , I'm not sure what you are trying to do ?
[16:06] <eva> Lexar 2 gig
[16:06] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Did you check and see if it is write protected
[16:07] <Quantum_Ion> eva, any little switchs on the side of your SD card
[16:07] <eva> Quantum_Ion yes it worked on wondows
[16:07] <eva> windows
[16:07] <Kristiina> BluesKaj: my internal mic and internal speakers don't work. only external speakers. i want to get them work.
[16:07] <ServerTechLaptop> Hello, my screen has hanged after an exploit tried to control my screen which i refused. The screen is totally hanged, the only thing i can move is the mouse
[16:08] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Try taking the card out of the SD slot and reboot Ubuntu Windows then put the card back in and see if it is detected
[16:08] <BluesKaj> internal speakers , Kristiina ?
[16:08] <Quantum_Ion> I mean Ubuntu Linux
[16:08] <BluesKaj> bbl
[16:08] <eva> Quantum_Ion ok thanks
[16:08] <Kristiina> yes build in:)
[16:09] <prodigel> hi all. I have a dell inspiron 1501 laptop, and whatever I've tried when recording from mic I get this powerful background noise that covers most of the real recording. Headphones are ok, tested them on other computers. lspci tells me Intel Azalia. I don't know what to do next
[16:09] <rcsheets`> is the number in brackets at the beginning of each dmesg line the number of seconds since boot?
[16:10] <prodigel> ubuntu 10.04 64bit here, updated to date
[16:11] <pksadiq> please anybody help me to get a better irc client for linux, such as different colours for users, messages, etc..........
[16:11] <uRock> My ubuntu 10.04 just locked up and when I restarted, it went to a black screen saying "init not found" what do I do?

[16:12] <Cantide> Kristiina: i assume it's a laptop then "<
[16:12] <Kristiina> hp mini 110-3030nr (netbook)
[16:13] <abhijit> Cantide, you can search it in packages.ubuntu.com
[16:13] <Kristiina> Cantide: hp mini 110-3030nr (netbook
[16:13] <philinux> Cantide: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=usb-modeswitch
[16:14] <Cantide> oh... let me rephrase that... for Ubuntu 9.04
[16:14] <Cantide> http://blogs.fsfe.org/drdanz/?p=44 <- I've tried this, but apt-get can't find the file
[16:14] <wng-> Anyone know why some of my partitions would need a filesystem check to be completed after my 3ware card verifies the raid array over the weekend? Seems to happen every week...
[16:15] <eva> Quantum_Ion did not work ubuntu cant find my cam and the sd care is the same
[16:16] <eva> sd card
[16:17] <bootstrap> neoist
[16:17] <Kristiina> i have to go, i'll be back soon later on. thanks guys, anyway...
[16:18] <Cantide> abhijit, philinux : thanks, I'm going to try one of those off packages.ubuntu.com - even though they are for a newer version of Ubuntu than I'm running :P
[16:18] <abhijit> Cantide, you can search a package for the your ubuntu version
[16:19] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Which Ubuntu are you using type uname -a
[16:20] <Quantum_Ion> eva, copy and paste your version to the screen
[16:20] <eva> the new just installed it today
[16:20] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Open up a terminal and type uname -a
[16:20] <Cantide> abhijit: i believe that such a package does not exist, which is why i was looking for a backport
[16:21] <Quantum_Ion> eva, Copy and paste the version to the screen
[16:21] <j2quinn> if i want to install ubuntu on a laptop do i pick the desktop version or the netbook version?
[16:21] <abhijit> Cantide, use correct package name
[16:21] <philinux> abhijit: there was no package in jaunty
[16:21] <abhijit> philinux, i see.
[16:22] <pahalial> Are there any known issues with the official mysql-server-5.1 package on Ubuntu 10.04 server? Just installed it, and as best I can tell it completely failed to set itself up as a service but runs fine from `sudo -umysql /usr/sbin/mysqld`.
[16:22] <robotman1881> j2quinn: either one, I perfer the desktop version personally
[16:22] <j2quinn> k thanks
[16:23] <abhijit> anyone uses celestia here?
[16:23] <zxd> hi

[16:23] <robotman1881> abhijit: I have the program and I think its cool, not sure I can answer any questions though :)
[16:23] <abhijit> robotman1881,  how to go to vega?
[16:24] <Cantide> abhijit, philinux : it seems to have installed okay... but i think i need to restart and test it out
[16:24] <Cantide> bbian
[16:24] <Cantide> bbiab *
[16:24] <robotman1881> abhijit: I noticed that too, I think maybe vega is a common name and perhaps the scientific name is something else, just a guess though
[16:24] <pahalial> anyone? mysql-server-5.1 on 10.04?
[16:24] <Kneta_> I'm trying to mount a drive with sshfs and I keep getting a useless "read: Connection reset by peer" message. Anyone have a clue what that might relate to?

[16:53] <ThinWhiteDuke> youtube performs so poorly on my ubuntu
[16:56] <AnthLee> thinwhiteduke do you have the proprietary drivers for your video card installed
[16:57] <ThinWhiteDuke> yeah
[16:57] <ThinWhiteDuke> i used to have video problems in general with flickering
[16:58] <ThinWhiteDuke> but i was able to disable a feature on the compizconfig called unredirect full screen
[16:58] <ThinWhiteDuke> or actually i had to enable that
[16:58] <ThinWhiteDuke> then the flickering stopped
[16:58] <AnthLee> disabling compiz in general
[16:58] <AnthLee> will help flash playback
[16:59] <noSound2> hello all. Anyone here willing to help a newbie with a sound configuration problem? No sound after upgrade to 10.04
[16:59] <ThinWhiteDuke> i'll try to figure out how to do that, thx
[16:59] <AnthLee> also flash works better on 32 bit editions of ubuntu
[16:59] <ThinWhiteDuke> i have 32 bit
[17:00] <AnthLee> try disabling compiz and shutting down any un-needed background processes consider switching to xubuntu and purging some pork for a more responsive system
[17:02] <AnthLee> other sage advice includes install all updates and try chromium-browser
[17:02] <noSound2> *sigh* no one here w/ sound expertise on ubuntu eh?
[17:02] <AnthLee> whats wrong with your sound
[17:03] <noSound2> doesn't work at all after upgrade to 10.04 from 9.10
[17:03] <AnthLee> is the sound muted
[17:03] <philinux> ThinWhiteDuke: since the update recently to 10.1 r82 flash has got very stuttery. I'm just raising a bug
[17:03] <noSound2> nope
[17:04] <noSound2> I've looked on the usual sources of info on sound torubleshooting but no avail
[17:04] <owd95> After i installed nvidia drivers my resolution is wrong and i cannot change it, i use ubuntu 10.04 with nvidia-96 drivers
[17:04] <noSound2> lspci lists the device but aplay does not see it
[17:04] <noSound2> aplay: device_list:235: no soundcards found...
[17:05] <ThinWhiteDuke> yeah stuttering is my problem
[17:05] <ThinWhiteDuke> and it stutters to the point the audio gets out of sync
[17:05] <aydin> hey everybody
[17:05] <AnthLee> I don't know much about sound but I know alot about failing ubuntu upgrades I would try testing sound with a live cd and if it works reinstall os
[17:05] <AnthLee> :)
[17:06] <MrUnagi> my 3g sucks
[17:06] <noSound2> sadly it doesn't work with a live cd I got - an old one albeit..my old 8.04 live cd
[17:06] <AnthLee> id try with a recent cd
[17:06] <Kristiina> internal mic and speaker not working in ubuntu 10.04 (netbook). can anybody help?
[17:06] <noSound2> now would reinstalling it wreck my existing install?
[17:06] <AnthLee> yes
[17:07] <philinux> ThinWhiteDuke: please change the status to confirmed.
[17:07] <philinux> ThinWhiteDuke: please change the status to confirmed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/639707
[17:07] <noSound2> i mean would i need to back up my /etc and maybe other stuff? I've got a few things above the base install that I'd like preserved
[17:07] <noSound2> like my samba confs and what not
[17:07] <Licuadora> How do i install a GPU driver? is a .run file
[17:07] <AnthLee> you can do some backing up of things
[17:08] <aretrfre34> Why my letters are cripled in lucid fresh install: http://imagebin.org/114222
[17:08] <ZekeS> Licuadora: depends on the driver
[17:08] <AnthLee> thats the only advice I can offer
[17:08] <AnthLee> either that or wait for someone who is better at troubleshooting sound issues
[17:08] <noSound2> well thanks
[17:08] <ThinWhiteDuke> ok let me register real quick
[17:08] <Licuadora> It is a Nvidia QuadroFX driver
[17:08] <noSound2> =)
[17:08] <rionstrife> hi all
[17:08] <AnthLee> i've never actually experienced a dist-upgrade in ubuntu that something didnt fail
[17:09] <aretrfre34> hi
[17:09] <rionstrife> do u think its possible to do loadbalancing with ubuntu?
[17:09] <aretrfre34> Why my letters are cripled in lucid fresh install: http://imagebin.org/114222
[17:09] <rionstrife> i have 2 isp here...isp a for gaming and isp b for browsing/download
[17:09] <wng-> AnthLee: dist-upgrade's rarely fail over here
[17:09] <AnthLee> not once have I had success in ubuntu ..
[17:09] <rionstrife> i think i should mangle it by port..but i dont know where to star
[17:09] <AnthLee> over several machines
[17:09] <AnthLee> and many years
[17:09] <ThinWhiteDuke> philinux, how do i change the status? should i just comment and say i have the same problem?
[17:09] <at05gt> where do i get flash player so i can go on youtube? the addons inside firefox dont list anything

[17:10] <rionstrife> hi all
[17:10] <collabra> at05gt: if you want other codecs as well as flashplayer do a: sudo ubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:11] <aretrfre34> jpds:Why my letters are crippled in lucid fresh install: http://imagebin.org/114222
[17:11] <rionstrife> do u think its possible to do loadbalancing with ubuntu?i have 2 isp here.i want to make ISP a for game and isp b for browsing..but i dont know which way to go :)
[17:11] <collabra> at05gt: sorry sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:11] <ZekeS> Licuadora: v. 256.53, the latest stable version, is automatically installed by the restricted drivers and works fine for mr (Quadro FX 3700M)
[17:12] <jdimatteo> hi, I'm trying to setup a vpn on Ubuntu 10.04, and when I run it I get errors that my users doesn't have permissions to execute pppd and peers -- is there a group I can add my user to to resolve this?
[17:12] <AnthLee> dear channel aptitude > apt-get
[17:12] <ZekeS> Licuadora: if not, there's always NVIDIA's readme http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/256.53/README/index.html :p
[17:12] <jpds> aretrfre34: Try: Ctrl++
[17:12] <ZekeS> :|
[17:13] <bobstro> rionstrife:  what sort of router do you have?
[17:13] <aretrfre34> jpds:looks nicer
[17:13] <AnthLee> I wonder how many times a day a problem is solved by ubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:14] <ZekeS> AnthLee: too many I'm sure
[17:14] <d1gital> hello, room.   I am using the Broadcom STA wireless drivers for my BCM4322 in promisc mode to sniff packets with Wireshark.  The trouble is, I'm only seeing ARP and UDP traffic.  No capture filters are enabled.  Why are the packets from my other laptop not visible in Wireshark?>
[17:14] <bobstro> rionstrife:  that will be more of a router configuration issue... unless you are using a linux router?
[17:14] <at05gt> thanks Anth i wasnt aware that package existed :)
[17:15] <AnthLee> np
[17:15] <jdimatteo> I don't want to run my vpn software as root, but I'm sort of a newb, can someone please recommend a group I can my user to use ppp and ppers?  or please suggest relevant doc or another channel?
[17:16] <philinux> ThinWhiteDuke: Thanks
[17:16] <eraggo> d1gital: fireshark sniffs only traffic that comes to your computer (as i know)
[17:18] <aretrfre34> !wayttd
[17:18] <aretrfre34> !ubutto wayttd
[17:18] <d1gital> eraggo:  Both computers are connected to the same wireless network, so the card must be receiving the packets; but somewhere along the line they are dropped before Wireshark can analyze them.
[17:19] <Spyzer> hi all, can we have different ubuntu main menu for different user accounts??
[17:20] <Spyzer> huh??
[17:21] <solid_liq> your spambot is b0rken
[17:21] <collabra> Spyzer: System>Preferences>Main Menu ...
[17:21] <d1gital> tried tcpdump -vv : same result.  any ideas?
[17:21] <Spyzer> no i mean which file does it write to??
[17:22] <Spyzer> gnome.conf??
[17:22] <Spyzer> and is that possible in kde as well
[17:22] <eraggo> d1gital: do you see normal browsing in wireshrak? i'm kind of sure that if packet is sent to certain ip, receiver will drop packet if it isn't meant for it..
[17:24] <maedox> at05gt, how did the nvidia thing turn out? I was away for a while...
[17:24] <d1gital> eraggo:  I can see traffic to/from the machine wireshark is running on, but I thought that Wireshark would put the card into promiscuous mode in order to dump all traffic it sees.
[17:25] <collabra> Spyzer: not sure...
[17:25] <gh0zt> d1gital depends how your router is set up
[17:25] <at05gt> maedox: its working now
[17:25] <gh0zt> d1gital some configs will isolate the traffic
[17:25] <at05gt> maedox: just need to figure out how to slow down my mouse wheels scrolling
[17:26] <brontoeee> is it possible to install unity desktop on lucid lynx?
[17:26] <ProNihilist> how do I change the default mixer device for OSS4? ossmix -d 1 just seems to be a way to access information about the device
[17:26] <Paddy_NI> brontoeee, Yes but apparently the PPA packages are old
[17:26] <maedox> at05gt, great :)
[17:27] <brontoeee> Paddy_NI, old? like old version of unity for lynx and brand new for merkat
[17:27] <Paddy_NI> brontoeee, I would wait unless you want a broken desktop/netbook interface
[17:27] <d1gital> gh0zt  oh, I was not aware.  how does that work?  (a link/google query would be fine =])
[17:27] <Paddy_NI> brontoeee, no as in just old compared to the latest version
[17:27] <NeKit|EeePC> hello
[17:27] <brontoeee> Paddy_NI, how about upgrade of lynx to merkat beta, how much would that brake?
[17:28] <NeKit|EeePC> is there any way to install (and use :)) Ubuntu with about 1 Gb of space?
[17:28] <gh0zt> d1gital check your router wireless security config for AP Isolation
[17:28] <xangua> NeKit|EeePC: ubuntu minimal¿
[17:28] <eraggo> d1gital: why you would like to see traffic other than on your computer?
[17:28] <NeKit|EeePC> I want to use it on EeePC 700 2G Surf
[17:28] <Paddy_NI> brontoeee, well its in beta still but if you wish to give it a try I would suggest chatting with the folks on #ubuntu+1 to get an better idea of what to expect
[17:28] <NeKit|EeePC> but still I have to keep one partition for Windows XP
[17:28] <Paddy_NI> brontoeee, they could always use more testers
[17:28] <Paddy_NI> :)
[17:29] <brontoeee> Paddy_NI, ok
[17:29] <brontoeee> Paddy_NI, nah, i need features, unfortunatelly my time is limited.....
[17:29] <NeKit|EeePC> now I'm using SliTaz, but I really liked Plasma-netbook, but it's too slow from SD card
[17:29] <jdimatteo> so I've got a file /usr/sbin/pppd owned by the group dip, and I added my user to the dip group, but I still can't execute pppd -- do I need to reload the group file or something?
[17:31] <bobstro> d1gital:  is this your network, or you're just poking around?
[17:31] <bobstro> d1gital:  what you're seeing is probably the only unencrypted traffic that wireshark is finding.
[17:32] <crawler> hi there.  i need help making this launcher work right, it's an "application in the teminal launcher", and the command is "rm -rf /home/dimension/emptythis/*" but when i click the launcher, nothing happens..any ideas?
[17:32] <bobstro> d1gital:  if you can look at the wireless router/AP, you can check other settings if you want to see what's inside.
[17:32] <d1gital> eraggo:  I disabled AP isolation, and my problem is solved.   I don't understand, though, how a router can be sending unencrypted network traffic over the air, yet still isolating it to specific hosts.  I need to read more about wireless networking, I suppose.
[17:33] <d1gital> gotta run, thanks guys!
[17:33] <gh0zt> d1gital: np
[17:33] <gh0zt> d1gital the isolation is base don bridging the ethernet

[17:37] <robotman1881> sinman: usually you just make it executable and run it
[17:37] <sinman> I'm still learning linux, thats why I'm asking
[17:38] <JohnnyL> Where do I get the package development names for bison and flex?
[17:39] <collabra> sinman: you can make it executeable and then run it that way,... or do a : sudo sh ./<filename>
[17:40] <sinman> collabra: how do i go about making it executable
[17:40] <crawler> okay, i just put that command in a simple sh script and it worked fine, thanks anyway room
[17:41] <cmpsalvestrini> Okay... I have downloaded a program's source with mercurial, compiled, and checked that it runs. How do I go about making a debian package for it?

[18:04] <sweb> how can i determine /dev/sda3
[18:04] <collabra> sinman: did you receive any errors on install?
[18:04] <ZekeS> narkby: it calls your attention to someone who's trying to get your attention

[18:06] <Trashi> hi. i ve a broken path on my system. if i try to run /usr/bin/sqlite3 it works really great but if i try "sqlite3" only, it looks into the /usr/local/bin directory instead the /usr/bin and returns "file not found". can anybody explain how to and where to fix this path?
[18:06] <collabra> sinman: there is a minimal amount of documentation on this game.
[18:06] <sinman> collabra: no, at the end of the installation it ask me if I wanted to set permission and forgot to change it from no to yes before i had click forward
[18:06] <ZekeS> In some clients (not sure if xchat does it) you can autocomplete usernames like you would commands in the terminal
[18:06] <ZekeS> so I just hit na-tab to get narkby
[18:06] <sweb> any body get my question

[18:07] <sweb> dajhorn, hmmmmm
[18:07] <collabra> sinman: it should adjust the config
[18:07] <sinman> collabra: I know, I figure if I can change the folder perission to myself instead of root I should be ok
[18:07] <narkby> oh like the autocomplete in the terminal ^_^
[18:07] <sinman> collabra: k I'll give it a shot
[18:07] <collabra> sinman: i would try installing on top, first.

[18:09] <drean> servietsky: set the useragent in wget
[18:09] <blaz_> Trashi: /usr/bin is later in the path, shell would normally go there if the executable is not found in /usr/local/bin
[18:10] <Trashi> blaz_: i know! so where's the problem?
[18:10] <DrDark> it all depends on your streamer if your streamer supports adding subtitles to the video it will stream it with subs but mediatomb doesn't add it automaticly so i need to add it manualy and i need to find a package to do that
[18:10] <sweb> maedox, tnx
[18:11] <blaz_> Trashi:  sorry, no idea ..

[18:28] <Asigottech> Kristiina: never used them, if they are for your platform then probally, did you try changing profiles ? click the icon, select sound preferences look under hardware, if no luck check output has the right options
[18:28] <Dr_Willis> oops.. my mistake. its 'alsamixer' no -
[18:28] <crawler> marko-_-: not sure... one guy said, "I installed kubuntu-desktop from the repos and am using it to drag and drop files to my player", so maybe try that for now
[18:29] <marko-_-> yeah i saw that
[18:29] <marko-_-> man that's a serious bug ffs
[18:29] <marko-_-> they should fix that
[18:29] <Kristiina> Dr_Willis:  did it, also downloaded everything that had ALSA in it:(
[18:30] <dajhorn> svzard: Do you know whether your home directory is LUKS or cryptfs?
[18:30] <gabe_> hello, I need help please. My system says it needs to update but when I click on the reload button in synaptic, I get a message that says it could not download all repository indexes (can't paste everything because it's too long) even though I already ran all the commands listed on medibuntu
[18:30] <gabe_> how can I fix this?
[18:30] <crawler> marko-_-: yes, i agree.  good luck finind a solution :)
[18:30] <svzard> dajhorn: no. what ever default used on lucid
[18:31] <blaz_> Kristiina: did you try unmuting channels in alsamixer by hitting 'm'? (I guess you did)
[18:31] <Dr_Willis> Kristiina:  if sound works out of one set of outputs, (the heaphones) but not the normal speakers. sounds like an alsa bug to me.  I would test it in a 10.10 also. It might have been fixed in the next release. Youy should file a bug in any case.
[18:31] <JoshuaL> i have remote desktop enabled at windows vista, how can i take over that computer with ubuntu?
[18:31] <dajhorn> svzard: Do you have a /home/.ecryptfs folder?
[18:31] <Katsumi32> gabe_,  try to change server
[18:31] <gabe_> how do I do that?
[18:31] <Kristiina> blaz_:yeah:)
[18:32] <Katsumi32> system admintistration software source gabe_
[18:32] <gabe_> under the Ubuntu tab? does it matter what I choose?
[18:32] <crawler> JoshuaL: try using the terminal server client, or installing a vnc server such as tightvnc on the vista box, and accessing it with the remote desktop viewer
[18:33] <Kristiina> Dr_Willis: do you know how long would it take to fix it? i need use skype and do't want to go back to windows7
[18:33] <Katsumi32> system is on the top[ of your screen in the panel
[18:33] <JoshuaL> crawler, thanks :)
[18:33] <crawler> JoshuaL: ok, good luck
[18:33] <svzard> dajhorn: all i see when i do sudo ls svzard/ from within ubuntu mount is 'Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop and README.txt
[18:33] <JoshuaL> crawler, ty
[18:34] <gabe_> yes, I already opened it... but there are many tabs to choose from: Ubuntu, Other Software, Updates, Authentication, and Statistics
[18:34] <dajhorn> svzard: Do you have a /home/.ecryptfs folder?  It will be hidden in Nautilus.  Go look for it.
[18:34] <dajhorn> svzard: Reading the README.txt file would help you.
[18:34] <penthief> I want to dual boot Ubuntu Studio with my existing Fedora installation. Should I create a new volume group with 3 logical volumes (root/home/swap) to install into or is there a better way?
[18:34] <thiebaude_> got a quick question, im trying to make a launcher for my trash icon, where do i find the trash icon in ubuntu?
[18:34] <Dr_Willis> Kristiina:  no idea. How can i even guess... :)
[18:34] <Katsumi32> gabe_, first tab you see there download from click on it than click other than select best server
[18:35] <Katsumi32> gabe_, wait till it finishes and close it.
[18:35] <blaz_> Kristiina: sorry I did not follow from the start but if it is a problem with skype 'audio recording settings' then there is also something called 'Capture' in alsamixer and I had to press space to switch it on.
[18:35] <svzard> dajhorn: i guess i had /home/.Private or something. The thing is some update screwed my ubuntu. If I login my keyboard and mouse freezes.
[18:36] <svzard> dajhorn: so i want to access my files before i t/s or reinstall ubuntu.
[18:36] <silverpower> Katsumi32, thanks, that did the trick. I'm down to 85%. :D
[18:36] <dajhorn> svzard: Use the Live CD to recover your data.
[18:36] <crawler> thiebaude_: try looking in /usr/share/icons/gnome/* and /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable/places
[18:36] <Katsumi32> thiebaude_, right click on the bottom panel scroll to add to the panel
[18:37] <dajhorn> svzard: And look at the /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog files.  Check whether you're getting any obvious error messages.
[18:37] <svzard> dajhorn: does that gives access to encrypted home?
[18:37] <thiebaude_> crawler, thanks and Katsumi32
[18:37] <thiebaude_> :)
[18:37] <dajhorn> svzard: When you find your raw home directory, you must mount it manually.
[18:37] <dajhorn> svzard: Go read this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[18:37] <gabe_> still I get the same message
[18:38] <svzard> dajhorn: ok. will try that.
[18:38] <gabe_> I am in the US and I chose United States, but that's what was selected before anyway :(
[18:38] <mightyknighty> is there any known issue involving ubuntu and savage1 where accessing the gamedirectory is a problem? ;D
[18:38] <Kristiina> blaz_: in alsa mizer i have written: card:pulseaudio; chip:pulseaudio. then i have master with a lock and capture with the lock. should i unlock it or keep it locked?
[18:38] <Katsumi32> gabe_,  paste the message u see on http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[18:39] <rottik9> how do i install sun-java6 in ubuntu 10?
[18:39] <Kristiina> blaz_: i can move master but capture is not moving
[18:39] <xangua> !java | rottik9
[18:39] <Katsumi32> rottik9, use synaptic
[18:40] <Kristiina> is Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.21.
[18:40] <Kristiina>  the latest vesion?
[18:40] <Katsumi32> no kristina i think 1.0.23 is the latest alsa driver check it on alsa web
[18:40] <ems> ok so any idea why my background changes every 20 minutes ??
[18:41] <ems> i picked the earth one
[18:41] <Pici> ems: Its a slideshow.
[18:41] <gabe_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/494321/
[18:41] <ems> Pici, ok thanks, good. i thought something was wrong
[18:42] <blaz_> Kristiina: with Capture locked, I could not record any sound in test call. Had to unlock it using space bar (weird ui...). I also have custom /etc/asound.conf and had to change input source in 'skype in'. Is it the problem with skype not recording any sound in test call?
[18:42] <Kristiina> Katsumi32: could you tell me exactly where?
[18:43] <dajhorn> gabe_: Remove the mirror repository, and then go back to the Medibuntu installation instructions.
[18:43] <Katsumi32> Kristiina, http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
[18:43] <thiebaude_> Katsumi32, i got it all i did was open configuration editor,lol to add the trash icon to the desktop
[18:43] <gabe_> here you are Kristiina, google.com does it http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
[18:44] <narkby> how do i install sun java instead of openjdk, it says: "Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[18:44] <narkby> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[18:44] <narkby> is only available from another source
[18:44] <narkby> "
[18:44] <Katsumi32> i wont be able to add trash to desktop only panels thiebaude_ u can use docky etc if you want trash or clock on your desktop
[18:44] <FloodBot4> narkby: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:44] <Kristiina> blaz_: no sound in test call, no sound in recording programme. you see it's strange in the skype the only option i have is pulse. can i change it somehow?
[18:44] <maco> narkby: partner repository
[18:44] <Kristiina> gabe_: sorry i'm blonde
[18:44] <erUSUL> Kristiina: install linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic
[18:44] <Kristiina> gabe_: thanks:)
[18:45] <erUSUL> Kristiina: compiling alsa from source should be last resort
[18:45] <narkby> how do i enable partner repository?
[18:45] <thiebaude_> Katsumi32, ok thanks,
[18:45] <gabe_> lol no worries we help however we can
[18:45] <kanaly> Hello
[18:45] <maco> narkby: uncomment its lines in /etc/apt/sources.list or use system -> administration -> software sources
[18:45] <blaz_> Kristiina: did you managed to unlock Capture? try that first
[18:45] <Kristiina> erUSUL:  how can i find it?
[18:45] <gabe_> dajhor: is this the command to remove it? sudo sed -e 's/ non-free//' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[18:45] <erUSUL> Kristiina: System>Admin...>synaptic ...
[18:45] <erUSUL> Kristiina: use the search button
[18:46] <perola> Testing.
[18:46] <eva> my acer aspire 5510 dont shut down when i press shut down
[18:46] <Kristiina> blaz_: yeah, nut i can't move the slider on the capture
[18:47] <rottik9> great got it ty...
[18:49] <Kristiina> erUSUL: i can see 2.same version, should i ahead with them or just one?
[18:50] <erUSUL> Kristiina: install just one
[18:50] <Kristiina> erUSUL: sorry one ends with .pae
[18:50] <Oewyn> I just recently upgraded to 10.04 and I noticed that gcc-4.2 is no longer available.  Is there any way to safely install the package w/out breaking other package dependencies?
[18:50] <erUSUL> Kristiina: unless you are using the pae kernel that's not what you want
[18:51] <blaz_> Kristiina: ok that's different for me, i can slide it.. Anyway I would first try to get sound recording working in Audacity (or whatever program you are using). Skype seem to have other issues on top of that (that is why I needed custom /etc/asound.conf). One step at a time...
[18:51] <erUSUL> Oewyn: any reason you need it? what's wrong with default gcc ?
[18:52] <Kristiina> erUSUL: i wish i could be like you guys, i don't even know how to delete the chat button besides the on/off button
[18:52] <Oewyn> For compatability reasons, we need to use 4.2 on so products and 4.4 on others.
[18:52] <Oewyn> some*
[18:53] <Kristiina> blaz_: thanks. you're right.
[18:53] <erUSUL> Kristiina: it only takes time ;)
[18:54] <Kristiina> erUSUL: i need to speak to my mom tomorrow. i need to have it fixed:) already 3 days doing that.
[18:54] <erUSUL> Kristiina: skype?
[18:55] <Kristiina> yeah
[18:55] <Oewyn> last time when i tried to use dpkg to install an unsupported package a whole bunch of dependencies got broken and I ended up having to revert the changes.
[18:56] <antlong> what commands are available to check harddisk utilization (in terms of current r/w thoroughput and usage)
[18:56] <evans> HELLO can i get an invite please anyone pretty please
[18:56] <Kristiina> erUSUL: should i restart after installing?
[18:56] <ikonia> evans: invite for what ?
[18:56] <erUSUL> Kristiina: never used the software...
[18:56] <erUSUL> Kristiina: yes
[18:56] <Dr_Willis> evans:  we invite you to read up on irc. :)
[18:57] <erUSUL> a restart is required. but dunno if sound drivers is the problem
[18:57] <alket> where are packages that i installed through apt-get ?
[18:58] <Oewyn> erUSUL: any ideas?
[18:58] <erUSUL> alket: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[18:58] <alket> thank you erUSUL
[19:00] <Iulia> Hello everybody! Please, can someone tell me a program able to check failures on a HDD? One of my HDD's is damaged I think, and I need to check it. Thanks.
[19:00] <Goldline> hey uh guys i have a question
[19:00] <marcellus_> olaaaa
[19:00] <Goldline> Theres an mIRC addon called XDCC browser
[19:00] <marcellus_> saluti a tutti belli e brutti
[19:00] <Goldline> to download files similar to P2P in mIRC
[19:00] <Goldline> is that safe to use?
[19:00] <erUSUL> Iulia: system>admin>diesk utility?
[19:01] <erUSUL> Goldline: mirc is a windows software.
[19:01] <Pici> Goldline: What does that have to do with Ubuntu?
[19:01] <Iulia> is that one good for when the HDD may be physically damaged?
[19:01] <Kristiina> ErUSUL: it better be. what bugs me that the external speakers work and on the sound preferences in input i can see like there would be mic working,when i speak the slider  moves.
[19:01] <erUSUL> Iulia: that reports SMART info
[19:01] <Iulia> ok.Thanks!!
[19:01] <Goldline> Im talking about this addon heres the official website: http://www.xdccbrowser.com/
[19:02] <erUSUL> Kristiina: maybe is a skype configuration thing? i never used skype does it support pulseaudio natively ?
[19:02] <Goldline> any1 knows if its a trusted website / addon
[19:02] <Kristiina> erUSUL: yeah
[19:02] <Pici> Goldline: Again, this channel is only for Ubuntu support.  Try ##mirc for mIRC support,.
[19:03] <Oewyn> I'm trying to install the gcc-4.2 package on 10.04 does anyone have any ideas on how to safely do this w/out breaking other package dependencies?
[19:03] <blaz_> erUSUL: Kristiina sys sound recording is not working in other software so it doesnt look like skype only issue
[19:04] <erUSUL> Oewyn: looks like compiling from source isd the preferred method ... http://www.trevorpounds.com/blog/?p=111
[19:05] <Goldline> Im asking in #mirc but noone is replying
[19:05] <Kristiina> when i put something in terminal, don't remember what but i got that i don't have all the plugins for sound
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> Goldline:  time to learn some patience  :)
[19:06] <debranjan> Hello goldline
[19:06] <dakota> Hello, I was just wondering if Ubuntu Dapper Drake" will still run some current software or should I upgrade to 10.4 LTS? I am planning on running this system as a headless VNC server for configuration and its main porpose will be to host a BZFS game server.
[19:06] <erUSUL> Kristiina: when you click on the sound icon in the panel and go to sound properties/preferences Input tab. have you tried with different connectors? is it muted?
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> !dapper
[19:06] <Goldline> hi
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  thats very old...   I suggest upgradeing.
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  a clean install may be a better idea
[19:07] <at05gt> gah how do i turn off pidgins notifications on the screen?
[19:07] <at05gt> i dont need to see messages twice
[19:07] <debranjan> Will you be my friend goldline?
[19:07] <Kristiina> erUSUL: in input there's only one, output 2
[19:07] <dakota> I know it is..I got it like that... 10 bucks...for a P4 2.66Ghz machine with DVD-RW drive
[19:07] <dakota> How can I do a heales install?
[19:08] <ikonia> debranjan: take personal conversation to a private message, this channel is for ubuntu support
[19:08] <dakota> I already have a laptop running 10.4 LTS now..
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  Headless install.. Not sure.
[19:08] <Licuadora> Ok. I am back
[19:08] <erUSUL> Kristiina: i have line-in a two microphones ( 1 and 2)
[19:08] <Licuadora> I aked how to install a GPU driver
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  remove hd, put in box with a monitor.. :)   or in a usb enclosuer. perhaps.
[19:08] <erUSUL> Kristiina: alsamixer in a terminal shows the mic? and line in?
[19:09] <debranjan> How can i do this ikonia?
[19:09] <coz_> Licuadora,  which video card do you have?
[19:09] <Licuadora> Since i am going to install a program that requires OPENcl i must install the most recent
[19:09] <dakota> Well thats why its headless...I dont have any extra monitors at the moment..
[19:09] <Kristiina> no just capture and master
[19:09] <Licuadora> QuadroFX 580
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  theres some way to do an OEM type install. but ive never done it..  and that would take more effort to setup then atatching a monitor
[19:09] <blaz_> Kristiina: what is your machine and linux distro?
[19:09] <Licuadora> coz_: QuadroFX 580
[19:09] <coz_> Licuadora,   ok you should have nvidia_current   under system / administration / hardware drivers
[19:09] <Goldline> Am i the only one whos using mIRC ive always been in the impression that its the best IRC client program for windows and linux, for me it is
[19:09] <erUSUL> Kristiina: have you followed intelhda how to ?
[19:09] <Kristiina> hp mini 110-3030nr ubuntu 10.04. is this what you asked for?:)
[19:09] <erUSUL> !intelhda | Kristiina
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  you just need it attatched for 30 min or so untill you get ssh installed.. then you can remove it.
[19:09] <Licuadora> But... is that the MOST current?
[19:09] <coz_> Licuadora,  install that ...reboot... and see if it works well
[19:09] <blaz_> Kristiina: yea:)
[19:10] <coz_> Licuadora,  well there is a 260 driver but mm hold on
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> Goldline:  i never noticed it having a Linux port.. (i wouldent use it if it mIRC did have a linux port)
[19:10] <eva> i dont have any sound i have a acer aspire 5510
[19:10] <Goldline> It can also be run on Linux if you install Wine
[19:11] <dakota> Dr_Willis Should I use the server install CD for 10.4 LTS or should I do a normal install and use Gnome and VNC for configuration?
[19:11] <Goldline> Ubuntu etc
[19:11] <eva> anyone knows what to do
[19:11] <Licuadora> coz_: Well Ubntu not always has the latest in their repositories
[19:11] <coz_> Licuadora,  well in the x-updates ppa  the 260.19.04  nvidia driver is available but I have never used that ppa
[19:11] <at05gt> does anybody know how to turn off pidgin in the notification area?
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  depens on what you want to do. You can install a stand alone vncserver if you want . but if you are going to use desktop apps on vnc. may as well install desktop to begin with.
[19:11] <Licuadora> coz_: Like, Blender, they still have 2.49 when the 2.53 version is already out there
[19:12] <coz_> Licuadora,  well I believe the x-update ppa would have most of the recent drivers    and as for blender you can compile that manually if you want or see if there is an ubuntu ppa for blender
[19:12] <Licuadora> x-updates, how can i do that?
[19:12] <Goldline> Are there many differences between the 10.10 beta and the final version i mean theres just 1 month between those 2 releases?
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Goldline:  theres plenty of native to linux IRC clients. But use what you want.
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Goldline:  there can be major #s of bug fix's
[19:12] <coz_> Licuadora,    here is the x-update PPA    https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates
[19:12] <erUSUL> !final | Goldline
[19:12] <dakota> Dr_Willis thats what I was thinking....I like to use a GUI when possible, but I like to get down in the nitty gritty with the terminal aswell...
[19:12] <Licuadora> My point exactly, since not all software is the most recent in Ubuntu, i have to compile this driver... But how!?
[19:13] <Dr_Willis> dakota:  you can isntall the desktopp version and just set GDM to not run.  but its there if you need it.
[19:13] <Dr_Willis> bye all.
[19:13] <xangua> at05gt: i believe pidgin tray icon is disabled by default in ubuntu
[19:13] <erUSUL> Licuadora: do you really need the imporvements of the newer driver?
[19:13] <trojan_spike> bye
[19:13] <Licuadora> Well, i need OpenCl SDK
[19:13] <at05gt> was on by default for me /cry
[19:14] <dakota> Dr_Willis well is gonna be a File/game server
[19:14] <at05gt> i think i turned it off thou
[19:14] <Goldline> ubottu: isnt that the same as you are using the Update Manager in Ubuntu 10.10 Beta?
[19:14] <dakota> Dr_Willis but the game server is all in command line configuration and the file server could be either gui or commandline.
[19:14] <coz_> Licuadora,    http://developer.nvidia.com/object/opencl-download.html
[19:15] <at05gt> yup i fixed it
[19:15] <at05gt> it was a plugin turned on
[19:15] <Licuadora> erUSUL: is there a danger for upgrading the driver?
[19:15] <erUSUL> Licuadora: depends on how you do it. the x-updates ppa is the safext option imho
[19:15] <Kristiina> PERMITION DENIED: /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz
[19:15] <Kristiina> ANYBODY KNOWS WHY?
[19:16] <coz_> Licuadora,  I agree   about the ppa
[19:16] <Licuadora> coz_: I already doenloaded the 190.29 drivers, but i need to installed
[19:16] <erUSUL> Kristiina: use « zless /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz »
[19:16] <coz_> Licuadora,  well  if you downloaded from nvidia you are going to jump through a few hooops to get that installed
[19:16] <coz_> Licuadora,  that is an older driver anyway
[19:16] <Licuadora> Oh no, wait, in the Nvidia x server sttings, my driver version is 195.36.24
[19:17] <Licuadora> so i guess i dont need to upgrade, eh?
[19:17] <eva> anyone have a acer aspire here
[19:17] <coz_> Licuadora,  probably not
[19:17] <coz_> Licuadora,  if you do  I would use the x-update ppa  for safety
[19:17] <trojan_spike> Licuadora, if it isnt broke  ;)
