[13:36] <boourns> hi there, having a weird problem since upgrading to lucid, my gmail is showing the wrong time for everything, but my google settings have the right time zone, and my ubuntu time zone settings are correct. using chromium 5.0.365. any ideas?
[13:37] <bazhang> boourns, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please
[13:37] <boourns> o sure
[13:43] <melrokz> I'm using RealVNC linux free edition and there seems to be a problem launching it... vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[13:44] <melrokz> I'm using RealVNC linux free edition and there seems to be a problem launching it... vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[13:44] <annika> hallo i was having problem with spotify, some kind of soundcard problem in Wine, suggestions?
[13:45] <Arachno> Im stupid. Ive installed the ubuntu netbook edition and cant get rid of it
[13:45] <jamesstanley> melrokz: make a symlink to your version of libstdc++ called "libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3"
[13:45] <jamesstanley> And next time, don't get binary-only programs ;)
[13:45] <jamesstanley> Arachno: you can't generally "uninstall" an operating system
[13:45] <jiohdi> melrokz: you are missing packages... just need to hunt them down
[13:46] <jamesstanley> when you're done with it, just format the disk
[13:46] <Arachno> cant
[13:46] <Arachno> thatswhy I said im stupid
[13:46] <bazhang> Arachno, use a gparted livecd
[13:46] <melrokz> jamesstanley: how do i go about it?
[13:46] <jiohdi> Arachno: why do you what to remove it?
[13:46] <jamesstanley> melrokz: make a symlink to your version of libstdc++ called "libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3"
[13:46] <Arachno> i installed it on the same partition that the preinstalled windows 7 is on
[13:47] <jamesstanley> melrokz: for example, "ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++-some-version-here.so /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3"
[13:47] <jamesstanley> where some-version-here corresponds to your filename
[13:47] <frxstrem> So, I am trying to compile a C++ program (incredibly basic) with gcc, but apparently I get this error (http://paste.ubuntu.com/408085/), and I don't know why, but I am confident that it is not my C++ code that is the problem. Do anyone know what this mean and how to fix it? (sorry if this is the wrong chatroom to post this in)
[13:47] <Arachno> this notebook has no cd drive
[13:48] <melrokz> jamesstanley: I don't know how to do that. I'm not a linux newbie, but I do need help here...
[13:48] <jamesstanley> frxstrem: try using g++
[13:48] <jamesstanley> melrokz: i just typed the command you need to type
[13:48] <frxstrem> jamesstanley: how do I use it? just typing g++ instead of gcc in the terminal?
 melrokz: for example, "ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++-some-version-here.so /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3"
 where some-version-here corresponds to your filename
[13:48] <jamesstanley> frxstrem: yes
[13:48] <jamesstanley> gcc is the c compiler
[13:49] <melrokz> jamesstanley: k, thanks.
[13:49] <frxstrem> jamesstanley: okay, thanks, it worked :)
[13:50] <jamesstanley> melrokz: if you run "ls /usr/lib/libstdc++*.so" then you should get the filename to use
[13:50] <jamesstanley> it might just be called /usr/lib/libstdc++.so, in which case "ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3" should do it
[13:51] <melrokz> melvin@melvin-desktop:~$ sudo ls /usr/lib/libstdc++*.so
[13:51] <melrokz> [sudo] password for melvin:
[13:51] <melrokz> ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libstdc++*.so: No such file or directory
[13:51] <Arachno> is it possible to "upgrade" the netbook edition to a real ubuntu?
[13:51] <jamesstanley> melrokz: do you have a c++ runtime at all?
[13:51] <jamesstanley> i suggest searching apt for libstdc++
[13:52] <jiohdi> arachno, you can add things like KDE and others to make it seem just like regular
[13:52] <jamesstanley> melrokz: and then try running realvnc again, and if it doesn't work do the symlink thing
[13:52] <jiohdi> gnome should do it
[13:52] <Arachno> I want to install a drum machine, hydrogen
[13:52] <jiohdi> arachno, I am using icewm because its very lightweight
[13:52] <melrokz> jamesstanley: do i have? i've just installed ubuntu 9.04...
[13:52] <jamesstanley> then i don't see why you don't have libstdc++
[13:53] <melrokz> :)
[13:53] <jamesstanley> i don't actually run ubuntu i just hang in the channel, but i would assume the default install comes with a c++ runtime
[13:53] <Sheen> hi there
[13:54] <Sheen> is somebody use openfire plz ?
[13:54] <melrokz> jamesstanley: but i have the package 'libstdc++6' installed
[13:54] <Xbert> if an applcation is installed with synaptic, what will dependencies removed apt or aptitude?
[13:54] <KettleCorn> erUSUL: I've succesfully formatted /dev/md0 with fdisk, to ext3, but when browsing the computer I still see the old two disks, and not the /dev/md0 anywhere
[13:55] <eremite> Xbert: rephrase that.  It does not make sense.
[13:56] <Xbert> if an applcation is installed with synaptic, what will remove all the dependencies apt or aptitude?
[13:56] <eremite> KettleCorn: then it wasnt that successful?
[13:56] <Azelphur> Xbert: either, remove it then do sudo apt-get autoremove
[13:56] <melrokz> ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.10 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
[13:56] <eremite> Xbert: apt and then you should probably run apt-get autoremove
[13:56] <Azelphur> Xbert: autoremove will remove any (unused) dependencies (Note that other programs may require the same dependencies, those won't be uninstalled)
[13:57] <melrokz> this should do it, i hope so... testing...
[13:57] <Arachno> what does jaunty, karmic, intrepid mean? there are different installer, which one to use for netbook remix?
[13:57] <Xbert> thanks
[13:57] <KettleCorn> eremite: I'm not sure. Unsuccessful in the way I have no idea what I should do, but probably successful in the sense that I managed to create an array with mdadm and then format it with fdisk, without throwing any errors
[13:57] <Arachno> (sorry im new to this)
[13:57] <billy2007> any1 good at troubleshooting want an ops position on my channel?
[13:57] <billy2007> pm me
[13:57] <bazhang> Arachno, different versions of ubuntu
[13:57] <KettleCorn> eremite:  I just have no way of accessing the raid array (other than for reformatting) and I can still access the two individual disks
[13:58] <bazhang> billy2007, #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:58] <Arachno> is any of them compatible with the netbook remix?
[13:58] <melrokz> jamesstanley: I got a new error now: vncviewer: symbol lookup error: vncviewer: undefined symbol: cerr
[13:58] <billy2007> bazhang, sorry i rememer
[13:58] <bazhang> Arachno, get the latest karmic
[13:58] <jamesstanley> melrokz: did you install the c++ runtime?
[13:58] <Xbert> I'm i right in thinking autoremove was add a few releases back, I alway use aptitude as i assumed it was link better with synaptic and did complete removal, it apt jus the same now?
[13:58] <melrokz> yup
[13:58] <jamesstanley> did you need to do the symlink thing?
[13:58] <Arachno> how?
[13:59] <melrokz> i did: ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.10 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
[13:59] <bazhang> Arachno, you have ubuntu installed already?
[13:59] <eremite> Arachno: think of it like XP, Vista, 7 etc.  Each is it's own version fo Ubuntu.  The newest is Karmic, but the beta for the next release is available, called Lucid.  I suggest getting Lucid, since it will be ready for public use in less than a month.\
[13:59] <jamesstanley> melrokz: in that case i can't help
[13:59] <jamesstanley> perhaps you could try a vnc viewer out of apt
[13:59] <melrokz> k, thanks...
[13:59] <bazhang> eremite, its still beta, not supported here please dont suggest that for a new user
[13:59] <Arachno> I have the netbook remix installed
[13:59] <Draglor> melrokz: do you have "build-essentials" installed (that are the most important pacvkages for compiling)
[13:59] <bazhang> Arachno, so what is the issue
[14:00] <Arachno> and cant get rid of it because that would mean formatting my hd
[14:00] <jamesstanley> Draglor: he isn't compiling
[14:00] <jamesstanley> he has downloaded a closed source binary-only program
[14:00] <jamesstanley> and is trying to convince it to run
[14:00] <eremite> Arachno: the netbook remix is one of the above, Karmic, Jaunty etc.
[14:00] <Arachno> aah
[14:00] <melrokz> jamesstanley: I do hope vinagre will communicate with RealVNC installed on windows server 2003...
[14:00] <jamesstanley> if vinagre is a vnc client then i am sure it will
[14:01] <Azelphur> melrokz: it will.
[14:01] <Arachno> how do I find out which one?
[14:01] <Azelphur> melrokz: any VNC client will communicate with any VNC server, otherwise it's not VNC.
[14:01] <melrokz> jamesstanley: Vinagre is! Thanks! that'll do... now i'm off to installing realvnc on the windows server...
[14:01] <bazhang> Arachno, lsb_release -a in terminal
[14:01] <eremite> Arachno: lsb_release -a
[14:01] <eremite> -_- faster than I.
[14:01] <jamesstanley> melrokz: i hope it goes well for you
[14:02] <Arachno> thanks
[14:02] <Arachno> its karmic ^
[14:02] <quietone> i just caught myself out and executed a cmd not realizing I still had sudo privileges.  is there a way to determine if I have sudo privileges?
[14:02] <sktrdie> Hey
[14:02] <sktrdie> I'm stuck with feisty
[14:02] <jamesstanley> quietone: run "whoami" and see if it says root?
[14:02] <jrib> !upgrade | sktrdie
[14:02] <eremite> quietone: open a terminal and see if it says root@name or name@name
[14:03] <jrib> quietone: « sudo -l » is that what you want?  Your question is a bit vague
[14:03] <Arachno> is the netbook remix 32 or 64bit?
[14:03] <sktrdie> jrib: i know, but the upgrade manager doesn't work... it seems like the URL for the binaries is down or im not sure
[14:03] <jrib> sktrdie: read the link, it will tell you what repositories you need to use
[14:03] <sktrdie> ok
[14:03] <eremite> Arachno: both, I believe.  I mean, you can get a 64 and 32 version of it.
[14:04] <bazhang> Arachno, 32bit only
[14:04] <jiohdi> Arachno: netbook remix is just ubuntu with light weight packages and a different desktop front end
[14:04] <jiohdi> made for a smaller system
[14:04] <sab> hello,can any one please suggest me which latex tools should i use in ubuntu?
[14:04] <Arachno> darn
[14:04] <jiohdi> you can make it into full ubuntu
[14:04] <sktrdie> jrib: from 7.04 is not on the list :(
[14:04] <Arachno> the program only has a 64bit version
[14:04] <bazhang> Arachno, which program
[14:05] <Arachno> hydrogen
[14:05] <sab> i m new in latex and in ubuntu
[14:05] <eremite> hydroGEN IS 32 BIT, i USE IT
[14:05] <jrib> sktrdie: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes#7.04
[14:05] <jihedamine> Hi, is the a GUI to change color depth in ubuntu 9.10 please?
[14:05] <Arachno> well they only have a 64bit installer for karmic
[14:05] <sktrdie> jrib: ok
[14:05] <eremite> jihedamine: what do you mean color depth?
[14:05] <jrib> sktrdie: make sure you read carefully
[14:06] <sab> hello,can any one please suggest me which latex tools should i use in ubuntu,I am new in Ubuntu and Latex?
[14:06] <jihedamine> eremite: change monitor color depth from 16 bits to 24 bits
[14:06] <eremite> Arachno: Opemn the software center in Ubuntu
[14:06] <mysoogals> hi guys, im confused which version i have installed 64bit ubuntu or 32 how to find out i used the wubi installer
[14:06] <eremite> its there,.
 as fa as i know xorg.conf .... no gui
[14:06] <Arachno> okay
[14:06] <eremite> Arachno: in a terminal you could also type    sudo apt-get install hydrogen
[14:07] <slackandrew> hi, what's the easiest 'ubuntu' way to get a new kernel installed, i want <IP_ADDRESS> but I'm not really familiar with ubuntu at all.
[14:07] <billy2007> bazhang, you here??? ive pm u
[14:07] <eremite> mysoogals: uname -r
[14:07] <eremite> in a terminal
[14:07] <mysoogals> thanks
[14:07] <PrestonConnors> I have a Ubuntu 9.10/open-scsi question. I am trying to log into an iSCSI target and I am getting this error http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/rQj2s7dg . Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
[14:07] <Arachno> oh cool
[14:07] <Arachno> somethings installing ^^
[14:07] <eremite> Hydrogen :D
[14:08] <Arachno> seems like ^^
[14:08] <mysoogals> it says <IP_ADDRESS>-generic is that 64 ?
[14:08] <slackandrew> PrestonConnors: I've seen a reboot fix this
[14:08] <eremite> mysoogals: no.  It would say something liek AMD64 if it was
[14:09] <mysoogals> it says just that eremite
[14:09] <mysoogals> nothing else
[14:09] <PrestonConnors> slackandrew: Yes, I understand that I can reboot and it fixes it. Is there any way to not reboot/start and stop open-iscsi?
[14:09] <Arachno> YEAH it works
[14:09] <Arachno> thanks very much eremite
[14:09] <eremite> You're welcome/
[14:09] <Draglor> mysoogals: type "uname -a" there should be an amd64 or i686 somewhere
[14:10] <slackandrew> PrestonConnors: not that came across, I didn't get this problem on CentOS it just appeared to be an odd ubuntu thing that I couldn't get around
[14:10] <eremite> Draglor: he already figured it out, its 32 bit.
[14:10] <slackandrew> PrestonConnors: sorry
[14:10] <mysoogals> i try ti install some applications but it says i386 all the time
[14:10] <eremite> mysoogals: i386 is 32 bit.
[14:10] <mysoogals> hmm good :D
[14:10] <mysoogals> why cant i isntall real media player
[14:11] <mysoogals> it says that error when i try to install it
[14:11] <eremite> mysoogals: real player?  In linux?
[14:11] <mysoogals> yes helix player
[14:11] <eremite> Helix isnt real player, is it?
[14:11] <mysoogals> hmm real.com have linux deb
[14:11] <mysoogals> so i try to install that
[14:11] <mysoogals> but didnt let me, and kept saying i386 error
[14:11] <eremite> mysoogals: do you need real player?  There are other, better, media players than Real Player.
[14:12] <mysoogals> the thing is on my website im using the real player plugin to stream video :O
[14:13] <eLcapitaL> vlc is quite good at playing videos
[14:13] <eremite> mysoogals: as a web developer, I hate the fact that you force people to use real player -_-.  Umm, well, to install it you should follow the instruction on their website.  If that does not work, perhaps you can find another IRC channel that helps with real player?  Not sure how to help you other than give suggestions.
[14:13] <mysoogals> already using videolan player, i can use the vlc plugin to but its hard for me to add support in wordpress for the vlc plugin :O
[14:14] <eLcapitaL> mysoogals, oh i see
[14:14] <Mike1_> hey! I’m using Ubuntu on a EeePC 1005HA-M and I got one problem: the NIC does not work if you resume from suspend without having wifi enabled before. Any Ideas? In Lucid it got even worse: It does not work if wifi was not enabled before starting the netbook.
[14:14] <quietone> jrib: u r right. I am distracted
[14:14] <mysoogals> eremite you were also forced to install flash media player in linux right same thing im just liking real player more over flash
[14:14] <eLcapitaL> mysoogals, you could use a flash player, like flowplayer maybe
[14:15] <mysoogals> :( i do not like adobe flash players
[14:15] <mysoogals> maybe i should work harder and get videolan plugin to work on wordpress
[14:15] <eLcapitaL> mysoogals, what about quicktime?
[14:15] <mysoogals> i think that is the best thing
[14:15] <mjwalker> due to adobe flash players firefox crashes
[14:15] <eremite> mysoogals: no, I was not forced to install flash at all.  It was a choice, and it is an industry standard.  Real Player is NOT an industry standard.  I cannot remember the last time somone tried to offer me a .rm file.  They are not used buy the majority of the world, including Linux users.
[14:15] <eLcapitaL> mysoogals, might be able to help u with that
[14:16] <geirha> mysoogals: realplayer is not in the repos, adobe flash is ...
[14:16] <eLcapitaL> mysoogals, ive dealt with wordpress quite a bit
[14:16] <eremite> mysoogals: flash works for everyone else.  Perhaps it's just yoru computer?
[14:17] <mysoogals> no, i just do not like using flash thats all i want to use something new
[14:17] <_bella_> •hi•
[14:17] <eremite> Real Player is not new, its rather old and becoming more obsolete day by day.  Most Linux, Unix and Mac users will not be able to play your videos without downloading extra software and codecs, which is something they should not have to do just to watch a video.
[14:17] <eremite> !hi _bella_
[14:18] <slackandrew> is there another channel for ubuntu-kernel questions?
[14:18] <PrestonConnors> slackandrew: It appears to actually log into the disk, but just says failed. I will just filter out return value 255 in my script.
[14:18] <eremite> slackandrew: I would try the op channel, should be something like #ubuntu-op
[14:19] <mysoogals> eremite i agree but there is nothing better apart from videolan plugin but i cant get that thing to work on my theme
[14:19] <mysoogals> im stock on this damm real player plugin
[14:19] <slackandrew> eremite: thanks
[14:19] <slackandrew> PrestonConnors: Hahaha! Nice to know
[14:20] <xatcon> hp printer installed but do not print after command
[14:20] <eremite> mysoogals: just use flash, everyone else does.  It works for EVERYONE ELSE except for a few people.  Its the standard and it works, thats why everyone uses it on their sites.  I highly sugegst that you do not use Real Player and switch to flash for video until  HTML5 becomes standard
[14:20] <xatcon> using ubuntu 9.04
[14:21] <mysoogals> html5 player is slow on my computer and no fullscreen in firefox only if i right click mouse then go fullscreen kinda crazy
[14:21] <mysoogals> i wonder videolan can be Compile with only theora codec and web pugin :D
[14:21] <mysoogals> that would be interesting
[14:21] <eremite> that would be useless to the majority of people
[14:22] <mysoogals> theora with videolan plugin ?
[14:22] <xatcon> hp 1600d deskjet
[14:22] <kbrosnan> the spec specificly states that fullscreen needs to be a user initiated action

[14:42] <Urda> norbi905: I know right! Takes up an extra line or so XD
[14:42] <Urda> norbi905: just kind of always there...
[14:42] <norbi905> Urda:  Yeah, especially since you don't really need it once it's set up.  Thanks for that tip, looks cleaner now :)
[14:44] <Urda> norbi905: No problem, Really erUSUL found the magic flag I was looking for ;)
[14:44] <weenus> Let me preface my remarks, by saying that I am not a retard, but the problem  I am bringing is retarded.  Since I upgraded to Karmic Koala, system-> preferences -> windows -> Titlebar Action (Double-click titlebar to perform this action: Maximize)  doesn't work. It does roll up which I can't stand.
[14:44] <twita> nobody for uftp? what about udp cast?
[14:46] <Drak> Hey so if i want to turn my install of ubuntu-remix to vanilla ubuntu what do i need to do?  I tried out the interface and dont like it
[14:49] <iflema> Drak System / Preferences / Startup applications preferences switch off maximus and the menubar and manually remove the window picker applet and replace with window list applet
[14:50] <bazhang> Drak, install ubuntu-desktop package
[14:53] <roenix> Hi, I've some questions about irc on ubuntu 9.10.
[14:53] <roenix> mostly about ident
[14:53] <roenix> Is this the place to ask about that?
[14:55] <Drak> ok cool so install ubuntu-desktop then turn off maximus
[14:55] <jacobo> hio
[14:55] <Drak> so out of curiousity if you have gnome and kde how does linux know which one to use?
[14:56] <bazhang> Drak, you choose in the login window
[14:56] <roenix> Drak, a default desktop environment can also be set in X-windows config files
[14:59] <erUSUL> !ask  | Royall_
[14:59] <erUSUL> !ask  | roenix
[14:59] <erUSUL> Royall_: sorry; not for you
[14:59] <iflema> Drak try at the login window regarless if you have not yet made changes..... in lucid ya select either gnome or unr.... switch between.... change nothing
[15:00] <eliezer> hola
[15:00] <erUSUL> !es | eliezer
[15:00] <m03hr3> .net
[15:01] <eremite> uname -a prints   #58-Ubuntu SMP   as part of the string.  What does #58-Ubuntu SMP mean?
[15:01] <roenix> Is ident required a lot these days on IRC? What is the best identd for ubuntu and what are the security risks. I've googled somewhat. Pointers to howto's are very welcome.
[15:01] <regtech> why is firefox so PAINFULLY slow, or is it X that is the problem?
[15:02] <regtech> it literally takes me 5 seconds to open a browser and it freezes constantly
[15:02] <eremite> regtech: are you sure that its FireFox ansd not yoru conenction?  Do other programs download at ergualr speeds, or is it only FF that si slow?  Are torrents slow?  What about other browsers, like Chrome?  (Chrome is the fastest browser for Ubuntu, by far, and passed acid tests with 100%)
[15:03] <regtech> yes i am sure
[15:03] <regtech> i have 1.5meg line
[15:03] <regtech> HTTP downloads are ine, its the tabs and browsers, it keeps greying out
[15:03] <eremite> regtech: I didnt ask how fast your line was, I asked if other services were effected by the slow speeds.  I was thinking taht somone might be using your wifi or something similar
[15:03] <crankharder> anyone know how to correctly remove a KVM domain?
[15:03] <regtech> click on one thing and it grey sout and hangs, then X greys out every window
[15:04] <regtech> no mate, im down with the network stuff.
[15:04] <eremite> regtech: have you tried any other browsers?
[15:04] <regtech> i can only think that it might be my jmicron SSD, but i have mounted a ram disk for tmp dir, so firefox should not be writing to my disk
[15:04] <regtech> chromiu is fast but it doesnt work with all the sites that i need to use
[15:05] <regtech> just want one browser that actually works, quite painful really.
[15:05] <eremite> Chromium is not faster than Chrome, according to the tests I did and other tests Ive seen.
[15:05] <regtech> eremite: linux doest have chrom numb nuts
[15:05] <eremite> regtech: not painful on my end.  All browsers work fine for me
[15:05] <regtech> which version are you using?
[15:05] <regtech> 9.10?
[15:05] <eremite> regtech: hey asshat, it sure does.   Yes, beta has been very stable for me.
[15:08] <aar_> Hi, is there currently any functional speech recognition system that can  be used in ubuntu? (I'm using Hardy).

[15:09] <harjot> ok thanks guys
[15:09] <regtech> cool will try it

[15:13] <aar_> Hi, is there currently any functional speech recognition system that can  be used in ubuntu? (I'm using Hardy).
[15:13] <frxstrem> does anyone know if it's possible to create a guest session in the terminal?
[15:14] <mcurrington> frxstrem: I'm sure its possible, not sure how
[15:14] <frxstrem> okay, does anyone know *how* it is possible?

[15:15] <jamil_1> if I am running a program in one gnome session and want to access from another gnome session how can I do that ?
[15:15] <hashed_> frxstrem: have you looked at gdm-guest-session ?
[15:15] <sudipta> i have electricsheep installed.anyone knows how to run it
[15:16] <frxstrem> hashed_: no
[15:16] <eremite> sudipta: Nope, sorry.  I use default screensavers.
[15:16] <kdk995509383kkdd> can i ssh to a machine and download something from
[15:16] <kdk995509383kkdd> that machine
[15:16] <jrib> kdk995509383kkdd: use scp
[15:17] <kdk995509383kkdd> kdk995509383kkdd: so you cant download things with ssh?
[15:17] <hashed_> kdk995509383kkdd: that would be SFTP
[15:17] <exalt> you can do wget
[15:17] <exalt> and thay copy
[15:17] <exalt> to your own disk
[15:18] <adrian> ola
[15:18] <sudipta> i found that screensaver interesting but whenever i run that it ask for host password
[15:18] <adrian> aa
[15:18] <erUSUL> !es | adrian
[15:18] <eremite> !es | adrian
[15:18] <eremite> -_-
[15:19] <exalt> kdk995509383kkdd, wget your file ans scp it to your disk
[15:19] <Milp_main> Could someone please guide me through setting up my wifi? Every guide failed because after i set up the b43 driver, the adapter completely vanished. Someone help me please
[15:19] <exalt> scp user@source:/directory/file user@destination:/directory/file
[15:19] <sudipta> can anybody help me?
[15:19] <erUSUL> !ask | sudipta
[15:19] <eremite> sudipta: using the screensaver should not ask for a password.
[15:19] <exalt> erUSUL, may i ask you a question?
[15:20] <eremite> !ask | exalt
[15:20] <exalt> :P
[15:20] <erUSUL> exalt: ask the channel ?
[15:20] <BluesKaj> 'morning
[15:20] <exalt> erUSUL, haha i already did
[15:20] <eremite> 'MORNIN'
[15:21] <Danijel> can anybody help me with permissions ? on gnomw
[15:21] <Danijel> gnome(
[15:21] <eremite> Danijel: be mroe specific
[15:21] <Random832> Danijel; what's your issue?
[15:21] <eremite> more*
[15:21] <Danijel> on xampp
[15:22] <Danijel> in htdocs folder i cant edit
[15:22] <sudipta> eremite:i have run it from terminal and it says"Enter host password for user 'sudipta'"
[15:22] <eremite> Danijel: use full sentences to explain yoru problem.
[15:22] <frxstrem> Danijel: chmod the htdocs folder to 777
[15:22] <Danijel> i cant edit filed in xampp in htdocs folder
[15:22] <eremite> sudipta: why do you need to run a screensaver from the terminal?  Just turn it on and use it normally?
[15:23] <eremite> frxstrem: I was told that using chmod +x is better than 777, but it was not detailed to me exactly why.
[15:23] <sudipta> yeah i hve done that too but nothing
[15:24] <eremite> sudipta: what do you mean "nothing"?  just set the screensaver and wait.  It should work.
[15:24] <Draglor> Danijel: Try editing them using "sudo $YOUREDITOR" or "gksudo $YOUREDITOR"
[15:24] <jamil_1>  if I am running a program in one gnome session and want to access from another gnome session how can I do that ?
[15:24] <AJW256> eremite: 777 gives everyone permission to do everything. +x just gives execution permission to yourself
[15:25] <Draglor> htdocs folder should not be editable by users ... he just has to use sudo
[15:25] <eremite> AJW256: with a personal computer that would seem most logical, ei using +x
[15:25] <sudipta> eremite:ok i am doing that
[15:25] <Drak> well so i installed ubuntu-desktop package and unchecked Maximus and rebooted, but nothing has changed
[15:25] <Milp_main> After i installed the b43 driver for my wifi adapter and rebooted ubuntu, it is completely gone! Not even lspci shows it anymore (which it did before) someone please help!
[15:26] <Drak> Is there a way to turn off enter/leave msgs in this webchat?
[15:26] <eremite> Drak: yes, which client are you using?
[15:26] <Drak> webchat.freenode.net
[15:26] <Draglor> Milp_main: b43 should be in kernel since some kernel version .. is "lsmod|grep b43" showing something?
[15:26] <RaMcHiP> how would I got about booting into terminal and changing my startup options with xfce?  I made a change to my compiz fusion and whenever it boots up now it locks up
[15:27] <eremite> Drak: not which server, I asked which IRC client (program) do you use
[15:27] <Draglor> I' using b43 based card myself and I don't need an extra driver since 9.04 or maybe even 8.10
[15:27] <AJW256> eremite: that's a web client
[15:27] <Milp_main> Draglor: no it doesnt show up
[15:27] <eremite> Oh
[15:27] <iflema> Drak log out and see if you can select between netbook and gnome at login prompt
[15:27] <AJW256> I'm using it too
[15:27] <Milp_main> Draglor im using karmic btw
[15:27] <Drak> eremite: i understand, im using the webchat client
[15:27] <frxstrem> eremite: webchat.freenode.net is the webchat client, not the server
[15:27] <Draglor> what does "modprobe b43" give you Milp_main?
[15:27] <eremite> Drak: I use irssi.  Sorry, I cant help you with that.
[15:27] <gewt> I really need to fix highlights.
[15:27] <Milp_main> Nothing again Draglor
[15:28] <Draglor> no error on modprobe, Milp_main?
[15:28] <Milp_main> no Draglor, just nothing :)
[15:28] <Drak> iflema: dont see anything, just my name and other and an accessibility icon and a power button
[15:29] <frxstrem> is there a way to run a bash script when a guest session is terminated?
[15:29] <Draglor> so what does "sudo lsmod |grep b43" say now?
[15:29] <Draglor> Milp_main
[15:29] <jamil_1> Drak: i asked the same question a while ago on the freenode official channel and I was told that wechat currently support that functionality
[15:29] <Milp_main> Draglor it shows b43 to be loaded among other modules
[15:30] <Draglor> thats good, so now your driver is loaded, your card should be working
[15:30] <exalt> can anyone help me restor my hfs partition -> http://pastebin.com/4jDUKJGh
[15:30] <Drak> jamil_1: currently does NOT you mean?
[15:30] <Milp_main> Draglor hmm no actually nothing changed, lspci still doesnt show it, neither does the driver manager show b43 to be loaded and iwconfig is still the same too :(
[15:31] <jamil_1> Drak: sorry it Does not support that functionlity
[15:31] <Draglor> is ssb loaded as well?
[15:31] <Milp_main> yes Draglor
[15:31] <eremite> Drak: try   /ignore ##channelname ALL -PUBLIC -ACTIONS Allows the user to ignore all joins, parts , quits etc without ignoring what anyone actually says.
[15:31] <{C}ronos> can soemone tell me why ubuntu always has such bad data transfer speeds
[15:31] <eremite> {C}ronos: it doesnt for me.
[15:32] <Drak> "unknown command"
[15:32] <{C}ronos> eremite: thats wierd because ive seen it on overy installation at home, and at school
[15:32] <Draglor> Milp_main: do you have something in /lib/firmware/b43 ?
[15:32] <eremite> Drak: did you replace ##channelname with #ubuntu?  If so, and it didnt work, then I geues you aer SOL
[15:32] <Drak> Anyone know how I can take the remix out of my unbunt-remix install? :)  I just want gnome... it's like a kiddy screen
[15:32] <iflema> Drak when you click on your name do more options open up? like i said earlier it is that way in lucid 10.04... not sure about previous versions
[15:33] <eremite> iflema: Lucid is not an IRC client
[15:33] <Drak> yes but gnome and xterm are the only options and when i pick gnome i get the maximus crap
[15:33] <erUSUL> exalt: hfs tools in linux are not up to par. i would use a Mac box to check that disk
[15:33] <Viper1432> {C}ronos,  there are known issues with usb data xfers.  A lot depends on which hardware is being used....but yeah, on sata > usb data xfers, my box slugs out badly as well.  not seeing the issues with lucid though.
[15:33] <Milp_main> yes Draglor, a ton of *.fw files
[15:34] <iflema> Drak ok... unchecking in the startup preferences should do....
[15:34] <Drak> maybe i didn't uncheck everyone i needed to?  i tried unchecking maximus and that wasn't enough... it's still unchecked when i look back at it but im still in the kiddy screen
[15:34] <exalt> erUSUL, macbox? is a distro?
[15:34] <Drak> *every one, that is
[15:35] <erUSUL> exalt: no a computer with Mac OS installed
[15:35] <iflema> Drak the menu or maximus
[15:35] <eremite> exalt: a mac box is a computer with mac?  Just like a Linux Box is a computer with Linux on it
[15:35] <Drak> maximus... didn't see anything about the menu would it be called sometihng else?
[15:35] <iflema> Drak its under maximus
[15:36] <exalt> eremite, osx you mean?
[15:36] <Drak> or "netbook launcher"?
[15:36] <Drak> *oh
[15:36] <Draglor> that's weird, sorry, Milp_main, but I don't know any more places to look for ... normally b43 should be working out of the box on 9.10 ... well for me it did
[15:36] <eremite> exalt: OSX is teh name of one of the Mac operatibng systems.  A Mac computer could have OSX, but it could have other Mac distros too
[15:36] <erUSUL> Draglor: Milp_main you have to install b43-fwcutter
[15:36] <Draglor> maybe try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall b43-fwcutter"
[15:37] <erUSUL> Draglor: Milp_main while connected to insternet by other means (wire)
[15:37] <Milp_main> Draglor erUSUL yes, i will try reinstalling it again. I tried once already using synaptic, but ill try using apt-get too
[15:37] <Draglor> it seems he has the firmware files in his place ....
[15:37] <Milp_main> Draglor erUSUL if this doesnt work ill just use my usb stick and reinstall the whole box again
[15:38] <eliezer> se me aolvido la clave para entrar al servidor hispano
[15:38] <Milp_main> Draglor erUSUL on a sidenote i should maybe mention that the Wifi on/off button on my laptop that runs it doesnt work, the led stays off, but the bios says its on
[15:38] <Draglor> would be annoying to me .. reinstalling an OS because of an error like this ..
[15:38] <erUSUL> Milp_main: then reload the module wahtching the log. maybe there is some error there. in a terminal do « tailf /var/log/messages » in another one do « sudo modprobe -r b43 && sudo modprobe b43 » paste the new output
[15:38] <Drak> nope... still came back...
[15:38] <Draglor> Milp_main: that should have be mentioned
[15:39] <erUSUL> Milp_main: you can use rfkill command to toggle the wifi on / off (the soft part)
[15:39] <Draglor> there are some rf_kill switches out there which don't wwork in linux yet (many medion laptops e.g.)
[15:39] <kristoffer_> halo
[15:39] <Draglor> erUSUL: This does not work on many laptops/switches
[15:39] <iflema> Drak anyway UNR essentially is ubuntu-desktop + maximus + window-picker-applet + clutter
[15:40] <Drak> so if i uninstall them i should be ok?
[15:40] <DeadmanIncJS> few more weeks till Lynx :)
[15:40] <Antonis> hello guys. I would like to install an irc server (ircd?) on lucid but I don't know what packages to install
[15:40] <iflema> Drak yeah.... just confirm the menu package is named clutter
[15:40] <zeropiel> is there a way to find hd's that don't show up in /dev/sd* ?
[15:40] <erUSUL> !find ircd
[15:40] <Milp_main> Draglor erUSUL well, i did the whole tailf and modprobe thing after reinstalling fwcutter, but its still the same
[15:40] <Draglor> Antonis: Just search for IRC Server ;)
[15:40] <Milp_main> Draglor how do i use rfkill?
[15:41] <iflema> Drak unistall the 3 not ubuntu-desktop
[15:41] <eliezer> join  #ubuntu-es
[15:41] <erUSUL> eliezer: /join #ubuntu-es
[15:42] <Drak> it like essentially removes multitasking
[15:42] <Draglor> Milp_main: probably it won't work .. on my brothers laptop it's the same ... you even can't enable the switch in bios, you can only enable "last state" .. my brother had to install windows, enable the wifi, and then reinstall his ubuntu ..
[15:42] <Draglor> can you eneable your wifi in your bios settings?
[15:42] <Drak> do i need to add anything back after removing them?
[15:42] <Drak> cant find clutter
[15:42] <Draglor> enabled on start or something like this .. that the default state is enabled, even if noc enable comman is sent
[15:42] <Milp_main> Draglor well wifi is enabled in bios though
[15:43] <Draglor> is there another option for something called wifi switch/switch /killswitch?
[15:43] <janisozaur> gpg wants me to generate some entropy. What's the most effective way to populate /dev/random?
[15:44] <Draglor> normally theres one setting for wifi and an other one for the switch configuration
[15:44] <runa> how can i change the theme of new gdm
[15:44] <erUSUL> Milp_main: haz « sudo rfkill list »
[15:44] <iflema>  maximus + window-picker-applet + netbook-launcher
[15:44] <Drak> wow so i deleted maximus and window-picket-applet but i STILL see the same screen...
[15:44] <Drak> did apt-get remove ...
[15:44] <Milp_main> Draglor uuh there is a LAN/WLAN switching option which is off
[15:44] <Drak> rebooting...  ( I logged out and back in)
[15:45] <Milp_main> erUSUL that list was empty
[15:46] <frxstrem> so, I installed kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop, and it installed a lot of programs with it, but can I remove all those programs in addition to those two packages?
[15:46] <erUSUL> Milp_main: :S even my desktop pci wifi card has an entry ....
[15:46] <Draglor> try enabling this .. I don't know exactly what it is, but I don't think it#ll harm you and maybe it's the right option
[15:46] <Draglor> Milp_main
[15:46] <Draglor> I hate these switches if they're not working in hardware ... only problems
[15:46] <IdleTwo> frxstrem: you want just gnome?
[15:46] <iflema> Drak maximus + window-picker-applet + netbook-launcher
[15:46] <Milp_main> Draglor erUSUL i rebooted with my ethernet cable pulled out and now it shows up and works perfectly
[15:46] <Milp_main> What the hell
[15:47] <erUSUL> Milp_main: :)
[15:47] <Milp_main> Even the button now works
[15:47] <Drak> ok so removing netbook-launcher now
[15:47] <Milp_main> Why is it doing that?
[15:47] <kristoffer__> i hate windows
[15:47] <kristoffer__> !

[15:52] <gewt> create a file in /etc/rc.local
[15:53] <Draglor> gewt: yes, but an horuly(minutely..) job would need to check if it's already running .. overhead if you only want to run it at boot time
[15:53] <gewt> Draglor: or @reboot
[15:53] <Draglor> Guest32457: You have a file calles /etc/local
[15:53] <Draglor> just add the name of the programm you would like to start on boot at the end of this file
[15:53] <Drak> iflema: do you know what the apt-get name is?
[15:53] <IdleTwo> frxstrem: you can try this for xfce: sudo apt-get remove abiword abiword-common cdrdao gqview graveman gtk2-engines-xfce ivman libdbh1.0-1 libenchant1c2 libexo0.3-0 libgpgme11 libid3tag0 libmad0 libmodplug0c2 liboggflac3 libsensors3 libxcomposite1 libxfce4mcs-client-2 libxfce4mcs-manager-2 libxfce4util-1 libxfcegui4-3 libxine1c2 mousepad rox-filer sox sylpheed sylpheed-i18n vorbis-tools xfcalendar xfce4 xfce4-appfinder xfce4-artwo

[15:54] <frxstrem> IdleTwo: I already found it, but thanks anyway
[15:54] <IdleTwo> sure thing
[15:54] <Guest32457> Draglor, yea, i have it :D
[15:54] <gewt> Draglor: @reboot is the cron "do this on boot"
[15:54] <frxstrem> guest_mb, please do not "spam" your question, if noone here can answer it, then noone can - try asking a bit later or start googling around the web a bit

[16:00] <manas> all
[16:00] <manas> i have a prob here
[16:01] <manas> when i clink on a link within a email
[16:01] <bazhang> manas, all on one line please
[16:01] <lallenlowe> !enter
[16:01] <manas> it doesnt open firefox but instead asks  me to choose a program, i dont know where to look for firefoc
[16:02] <lallenlowe> go to system > preferences > preffered applications
[16:02] <lallenlowe> and choose firefox
[16:02] <Drak> looks like i needed to remove unbuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings too
[16:02] <Drak> i can right click now yay
[16:02] <harjot> Is it possible I may have a permission problem when ubuntu suddenly reports there is no space left, and i cant login again except using a terminal?
[16:03] <Drak> but there's nothing on the panel... and no icons....
[16:03] <harjot> If i run du -a /var | sort -n -r | head -n 10
[16:03] <harjot> then i get permission denied
[16:03] <Drak> Is there a way i can reset this gnome setup to unbuntu-desktop defaults?
[16:04] <jort>  hi
[16:04] <manas> doesnt work. when i click on the link within a e mail the "launch application window" pops up and asks me to choose a program to open the link with. however there is no list from where i can choose an application
[16:04] <lallenlowe> Drak, PM me
[16:04] <lallenlowe> manas: it's in /usr/bin
[16:05] <harjot> manas: click chose then type /usr/bin/firefox
[16:05] <harjot> Is it possible I may have a permission problem when ubuntu suddenly reports there is no space left, and i cant login again except using a terminal?
[16:05] <iflema> I fear ive wasted your time.... ive done it before somehow??? just reinstall maximus and window-picker-applet
[16:05] <jrib> harjot: well my first guess would be that there is no space left
[16:05] <harjot> there was loads left
[16:05] <harjot> and it goes after using mediatob
[16:05] <harjot> mediatomb
[16:06] <jrib> harjot: pastebin output of « df -h » as well as where exactly you are receiving the error and exactly what it says
[16:06] <iflema> Drak reinstall maximus and window-picker-applet

[16:19] <Seito> Hi everyone! Strange things happen with conky while trying to run it when Ubuntu starts. It doesn't show anything on the desktop (config settings set to use desktop instead of creating its own window). But if to change the property to have its own window while the process exists in the memory - it show itself. Runs under 10.04 x86_64.
[16:20] <lallenlowe> jordanwb: have you installed the ati drivers?
[16:20] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: what would the package name be for the ati drivers
[16:20] <lallenlowe> !lucid | seito
[16:20] <lallenlowe> jordanwb: firstofall you will have to actually install ubuntu in order to use them
[16:21] <Seito> ok. thnx
[16:21] <cih997> hi, i isntalled ubuntu alternative with gnome, then i removed gnome and installed lxde. Before startx it s 180MB ram memory used from 192MB. How can i check what is using that memory?
[16:21] <tsyj2007> cih997: free
[16:21] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: I have 9.10 server installed, but I wanted to see if S-video would work out of the box without the ati drivers
[16:22] <jordanwb> apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[16:22] <tsyj2007> cih997: $free
[16:22] <cih997> tsyj2007: free just show numbers, not processes
[16:22] <Draglor> free doesn't say WHAT is using this memory .. that was his question
[16:23] <bazhang> cih997, top
[16:23] <Draglor> maybe "top" or "htop"
[16:23] <tsyj2007> cih997: $top
[16:23] <lux__> Hallo, hab ein Problem mit Rhythmbox, ich kann Internetradio nicht aufnehmen.Das Plugin dazu hab ich installiert, funktioniert allerdings nicht. Ist ein PPA
[16:23] <lallenlowe> cih997: ps auxww
[16:23] <Draglor> in both you can sort programms by memory consumption
[16:24] <rocket16> Hey friends, I got a nice way to increase Ubuntu startup speed slightly. If you have only Ubuntu (Like I have :) ) in your Laptop or Desktop, just download Startup-Manager and reduce the Timeout from 10 seconds to less.
[16:24] <lallenlowe> rocket16: yes, a very common tweak
[16:24] <rocket16> lallenlowe: Yes, :)
[16:24] <senthil> hi
[16:24] <rocket16> Hi senthil
[16:25] <senthil> hw r u?
[16:25] <jordanwb> rocket16: the "real" pros use update-rc.d
[16:25] <rocket16> jordanwb: Oh, thanks, :)
[16:25] <rocket16> senthil: Fine, thanks
[16:25] <cih997> lallenlowe: ps auxww --sort -rss is exactly what i needed. bazhang, tsyj2007: thx for help
[16:25] <jordanwb> rocket16: I was partially kidding but it will work
[16:25] <rocket16> jordanwb: O, :)
[16:26] <lallenlowe> cih997: awesome!
[16:27] <lallenlowe> anyone know how to filter connect and disconnect irc messages in pidgin?
[16:28] <achus> cant type password in terminal please help
[16:28] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: I can't get pidgin to stay running for more than a minute so I'm afraid I can't help you there
[16:28] <bazhang> achus, it does not show up?
[16:28] <lallenlowe> achus: just to make sure you know, you won't see any feedback, it looks like it's not typing, but it is
[16:28] <Presario2500> whats better on a slow PC?  ubuntu or fedora?
[16:28] <achus> not coming when i press keys
[16:28] <lallenlowe> Presario2500: Ubuntu
[16:29] <bazhang> Presario2500, ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:29] <lallenlowe> !offtopic
[16:29] <bazhang> achus, that's normal; there won't be any ****
[16:29] <jordanwb> Presario2500: how slow?
[16:29] <lallenlowe> !offtopic | jordanwb
[16:29] <achus> no not even that
[16:30] <coventry> Just upgraded to Karmic.  It automatically turns off my monitor after a brief idle period (maybe 5 min.)  How can I configure this?
[16:30] <bazhang> achus, then making a typo
[16:30] <jordanwb> coventry: that may be the screensaver doing that
[16:30] <achus> sorry cant get
[16:31] <jordanwb> coventry: Goto System->Preferences->Screensaver
[16:31] <achus> i can type in  commands but not the password
[16:31] <Draglor> hey jordanwb a question asking wether to use ubuntu seems to be ubuntu offtopic ;)
[16:31] <lallenlowe> Draglor: this channel is ONLY for support
[16:31] <lallenlowe> not advice or anything else
[16:31] <jordanwb> Draglor: ...and? I'm answering coventry's question
[16:32] <coventry> jordanwb: I thought of that, and set the timeout there to two hours.  However, it's still happening a lot sooner than that.
[16:32] <DexterLB> oops
[16:32] <DexterLB> ubuntu+1 i meant
[16:32] <achus> can someone help please
[16:32] <bazhang> achus, with what
[16:32] <coventry> Oh, wait, I have multiple log ins at the moment.  That would probably cause it.
[16:32] <coventry> Thanks.
[16:32] <achus> previous one cant enter password
[16:32] <lallenlowe> !question | achus
[16:32] <sine_> hi
[16:33] <bazhang> achus, what error do you get
[16:33] <lallenlowe> achus: in the terminal it will never show that you are typing a password, but I assure you it is working
[16:33] <achus> nothing appears when typing password in terminal
[16:33] <bazhang> achus, that is NORMAL
[16:33] <jordanwb> coventry: Try System->Preferences->Power Management
[16:34] <achus> but shows error password
[16:34] <jordanwb> achus: then you got the wrong password
[16:34] <bazhang> achus, what error
[16:34] <Draglor> Isn't it support for a system if I need to know if a system is suitable for my needs? lallenlowe
[16:34] <lallenlowe> Draglor: no
[16:34] <achus> wait let me check
[16:34] <lallenlowe> Draglor: support is after they are already using it
[16:35] <lallenlowe> Draglor: would you call microsoft tech support to ask them if you should use windows?
[16:35] <Trek> Draglor / lallenlowe: what's the question?
[16:35] <chanux> Why I can't see crond in my process list?
[16:35] <jordanwb> chanux: perhaps it's not running?
[16:35] <chanux> Trying st some cron jobs and it doesn't work for me.
[16:36] <chanux> jordanwb, there's a process called cron only
[16:36] <Draglor> ah ok, I din't know there was a new definition for "support", thanks
[16:36] <lallenlowe> "(9:28:46 AM) Presario2500: whats better on a slow PC?  ubuntu or fedora?"
[16:36] <lallenlowe> Draglor: not new, seriously, lay off it
[16:36] <jordanwb> chanux: I think that's your process
[16:36] <Maletor> How do I add sdb1 to my RAID 1 (/dev/md0) ?
[16:36] <achus> thanks it worked i am just newbie
[16:36] <coventry> jordanwb: The Power Management dialog already has "Never" for the "Put the display to sleep..." field.
[16:37] <chanux> jordanwb, and /etc/init.d/cron is available. NO crond
[16:37] <jordanwb> coventry: perhaps your monitor has it's own settings for auto-off?
[16:37] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all !
[16:37] <Trek> !hi | ^mNotIntelligent
[16:37] <costre> Maletor, Disk management can sort that graphically if you want
[16:37] <Maletor> It's added there as a spare, there doesn't seem to be an option to grow...
[16:37] <Maletor> Or... resync.
[16:37] <lallenlowe> Maletor: have you seen the new disk utility in karmic/lucid?
[16:38] <Maletor> Should I boot up into the live CD and do it from there? lallenlowe: yes I love the new disk utility in lucid.
[16:38] <jordanwb> Maletor: your RAID 1 array will be as large as your smallest partition
[16:38] <Maletor> I wish I could use it in karmic
[16:38] <Maletor> Can I?
[16:38] <Maletor> Jordanwb: that's ok they are all the same exact size
[16:38] <lallenlowe> Maletor: palimpset is in karmic
[16:38] <costre> Maletor, Do you select the raid array in the disk utility? There's a pretty opbvious button there
[16:38] <jsec> Hi all. I have a Macbook dual-booted with OS X and Karmic. Is it possible to remove OS X through gparted, and add the additional space for use by Karmic, without damaging anything?
[16:39] <costre> Maletor, Edit components
[16:39] <switch10_> if I close evolution, will I still receive event reminders?  Will my gnome calendar still sync with google?
[16:39] <Trek> jsec: only with a live CD
[16:39] <coventry> jordanwb: Probably not, as this started immediately after upgrading from Hardy to Karmic.  (A long process, going through all the intervening stages!)
[16:39] <Trek> jsec: even then  Idont recommend that
[16:39] <jordanwb> jsec: yes but moving/enlarging partitions is very slow
[16:39] <Maletor> costre: I did edit compenets and it's added, but it's a spare. How do I sync it?
[16:39] <Maletor> Can I upgrade to lucid disk utililty from karmic?
[16:39] <Trek> jsec / jordanwb: don't do it from within the installed Ubuntu system, it will fail
[16:39] <lallenlowe> jsec: I did that when I ditched OSX it worked fine
[16:40] <jordanwb> Yeah that would be bad
[16:40] <lallenlowe> though you'll need to install refit for linux
[16:40] <Trek> jsec / jordanwb: you'd need to run from a LiveCD thingy
[16:40] <lallenlowe> otherwise it won't boot without the os x partition
[16:40] <costre> maletor there's "add a spare" and there's "expand array"
[16:40] <jordanwb> yeah like SystemRescue
[16:40] <Maletor> coste: ok but i should probably do this from the live cd right?
[16:40] <jsec> lallenlowe, you just blow out the os x partition from the live cd?
[16:41] <lallenlowe> jsec: yes
[16:41] <Maletor> can i unmount my root partition while i'm booted into it? or my /boot partiiton?
[16:41] <costre> Maletor, It's safer I'd say :)
[16:41] <lallenlowe> after you get refit all set up
[16:41] <jordanwb> jsec: yes, you'd need to reinstall grub since your partition table has changed
[16:41] <jsec> lallenlowe: refit already installed
[16:41] <lallenlowe> yes, refit for linux though?
[16:41] <lallenlowe> cause the refit you install on the mac will be gone
[16:41] <costre> Maletor, I doubt it
[16:41] <chanux> Someone please check if this cronjob list have any problem http://dpaste.com/178839 . Only the shutdown did work.
[16:42] <jsec> lallenlowe, i'll have to look that up then. i thought that refit wasn't completely necessary, thought ubuntu had default efi support
[16:42] <lallenlowe> jsec: did you install refit from the ubuntu repos?
[16:42] <quidnunc> Can someone confirm that this link causes 100% CPU usage? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MacHbgn1OL0
[16:42] <switchgirl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/408157/ i am having issues installing software
[16:42] <lallenlowe> jsec: yes, but the mac uses a wierd booting system
[16:42] <Maletor> Can I upgrade to lucid disk utility from karmic?
[16:43] <jsec> lallenlowe: ok. i'll take a look at the ubuntu version. it's not anything that's happening immediately, but i wanted to see if it was possible or not.
[16:43] <om26er> Maletor, build it
[16:43] <Maletor> om26er: how so?
[16:43] <jordanwb> jsec: it is possible, but do a backup of everything
[16:43] <costre> quidnunc, I'd say 50-60
[16:44] <jordanwb> jsec: your best bet may be a clean install
[16:44] <RaMcHiP> how do I delete a file when I am in the terminal
[16:44] <jordanwb> RaMcHiP: rm
[16:44] <costre> RambJoe, rm is the command
[16:44] <RaMcHiP> ty so much
[16:44] <om26er> Maletor, download the source
[16:44] <RaMcHiP> BRB with results
[16:44] <quidnunc> costre: Is it drastically more than other non-HD youtube videos?
[16:44] <switch10_> chanux: maybe just try "poweroff" instead of /sbin/shutdown -h now
[16:44] <jordanwb> chanux: or "halt"
[16:44] <jsec> jordanwb: it's tempting. i've just got some custom kernels i had to compile for class and i'm not crazy about getting rid of them as they build on each other through the semester.
[16:44] <Maletor> om26er: I can't use aptitude?
[16:44] <om26er> Maletor, sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-disk-utility
[16:45] <jordanwb> jsec: really?
[16:45] <chanux> jordanwb, switch10_ Shutdown command did work. All other cron entries didn't work.
[16:45] <lallenlowe> jsec: hang on
[16:45] <om26er> Maletor, I am giving you the source link w8
[16:45] <lallenlowe> jsec: http://www.se51.net/2009/02/18/ubuntued/
[16:45] <lallenlowe> ubuntu only on a mac
[16:45] <chanux> Anyway I did /etc/init.d/cron restart afte first two entries pfailed
[16:45] <switch10_> chanux: ok, i got it backwards
[16:45] <quidnunc> switchgirl: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-look/+bug/551799
[16:46] <quidnunc> ubottu: bug #551799
[16:46] <quidnunc> !bug #551799
[16:46] <jordanwb> chanux: perhaps the "Attention!" outside of the double quotes is causing it to fail?
[16:46] <bazhang> quidnunc, not in this channel only development channels
[16:47] <chanux> jordanwb, I tried without that. Will recheck now though.
[16:47] <costre> quidnunc, I'd say it's about the same
[16:47] <quidnunc> costre: Thanks
[16:47] <jsec> jordanwb: yes?
[16:47] <jordanwb> jsec: Um...
[16:47] <lallenlowe> Maletor: see if someone has the new palimpset in a PPA
[16:47] <costre> quidnunc, Running a 1080p i smplayer with surround sound draws about 15% :DDD
[16:47] <om26er> Maletor, ftp://ftp.gnome.org/mirror/gnome.org/sources/gnome-disk-utility/2.30/gnome-disk-utility-2.30.1.tar.bz2
[16:48] <Maletor> ty om26er.
[16:48] <jsec> lallenlowe: excellent. ty.
[16:48] <switch10_> chanux: does gnome-power-cmd suspend/hibernate, give you some kind of output when you run it directly?
[16:48] <lallenlowe> jsec: no prob, that's what I did when I finally ditched apple's chanis for good!
[16:49] <chanux> switch10_, yes I guess
[16:50] <RaMcHiP> ok better question how do I delete a file that has a space in its name IE "Compiz Fusion.desktop"
[16:50] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: xubuntu-desktop just finished installing, I'm currently installing xorg-drivers-fglrx
[16:50] <chanux> I am adding entries with sudo crontab -e . Where these are actually written?
[16:50] <lallenlowe> anyone know how to filter irc connect and disconnect messages in pidgin?
[16:50] <trism> lallenlowe: enable the joins/parts plugin
[16:50] <jrib> chanux: you shouldn't care, but read crontab's man page
[16:50] <switch10_> chanux: I had trouble with running an rsync cronjob that had the -v --progress --stats options, because it had nowhere to out put the info, so the cron job failed..
[16:51] <lallenlowe> trism: THANKS!
[16:51] <RaMcHiP> I try to rm Compiz Fusion.desktop and it says the file doesnt exist and I would assume its because of the space
[16:51] <lallenlowe> chanux:
[16:51] <lallenlowe> chanux: us sudo crontab -eu root
[16:51] <lallenlowe> *use*
[16:52] <willmore> Quick question: Is there a standard Ubuntu CLI way of altering what services run at the different runlevels?  I.e. Fedora uses chkconfig.
[16:52] <chanux> switch10_, Maybe I should forward output to /dev/null
[16:52] <switch10_> chanux: yes make a log somewhere...
[16:52] <norbi905> RaMcHiP: try using encapsulating it with quotations
[16:52] <dagny_ta1gart> willmore: you can download chkconfig for ubuntu
[16:52] <RaMcHiP> so like rm "Compiz Fusion.desktop" ?
[16:53] <lallenlowe> willmore: sysv-rc-conf
[16:53] <norbi905> RaMcHiP: yes
[16:53] <RaMcHiP> TY sir
[16:53] <RaMcHiP> be back again with results :D
[16:53] <willmore> dagny_ta1gart, Thanks. lallenlowe thank you, too.  Do either of those install in the base install are do you have to go install them later?
[16:53] <lallenlowe> chanux: also make sure you are using FULL pathways to EVERYTHING in your crontab entry
[16:53] <chanux> lallenlowe, yeah I do
[16:53] <dagny_ta1gart> willmore: just do apt-get install chkconfig
[16:53] <willmore> I'm trying to help a friend remote admin a machine that has no internet connection--just a private VLAN.  So, we'd like to stick to standard installed packages. :)
[16:54] <willmore> dagny_ta1gart, I would if I could. :)
[16:54] <lallenlowe> chanux: sudo crontab -eu root
[16:54] <willmore> My quick questions have a way of being very slow. :)
[16:54] <omran> ##java
[16:55] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: I rebooted after installing the ATI drivers but I still can't get S-Video to work properlu
[16:55] <lallenlowe> did you install the proprietary ati drivers?
[16:55] <willmore> dagny_ta1gart, lallenlowe He just realized he doesn't have rsyslog on there--which is what we're trying to configure.  So, he'll have to drive to the box, switch it's ethernet connection and do the work by hand.
[16:56] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: I believe so, xorg-drivers-fglrx
[16:56] <lallenlowe> lol
[16:56] <lallenlowe> sneakernet
[16:56] <willmore> So, I'll have him install chkconfig and do it the way I'm familiar with. :)
[16:56] <oz1999> ver mi pagina web, tiene todos! a www.thefunclub.co.uk
[16:56] <willmore> lallenlowe, I'd talk him into using scp to move the packages, but he's willing to drive.
[16:56] <lallenlowe> jordanwb, use the restricted drivers manager jsut to be sure
[16:56] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: I can't get xorg to work
[16:56] <lallenlowe> then you can use catalyst to set the correct s-video settings
[16:57] <sine_> #ubuntu: serious problem here. my gdm keeps freezing and i have to restart gdm from tty1 via service gdm restart
[16:57] <lallenlowe> !es
[16:57] <jordanwb> I'll just hook it up to a computer monitor and get it to work through that first
[16:57] <rimdeker> Guys, I just installed Ubuntu but let's assume that I want to use KDE all of a sudden, could I simply download KDE via the Synaptic Packet Manager and select it on the log-in screen? I am sorry if that is a dumb question, I am kinda new to Ubuntu and all..
[16:57] <jordanwb> rimdeker: that's right
[16:57] <sine_> it normally happens when firefox is involved in teh situation however from another terminal top results in not cpu max usage or mem leaks
[16:57] <willmore> lallenlowe, dagny_ta1gart thanks for your help.  Looks like we're doing this the old fashoned way. :)
[16:57] <jordanwb> rimdeker: you'd want to installl kubuntu-desktop
[16:58] <oz1999> go to my website, it has everything! at: www.thefunclub.co.uk
[16:58] <rimdeker> jordanwb: Are there gonna be any problems or something like compatibility issues?
[16:58] <jordanwb> rimdeker: shouldn't
[16:58] <RaMcHiP> TY that worked
[16:58] <willmore> Wow, that sounds like a kick/ban: oz1999
[16:58] <Draglor> rimdeker: just type "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" in a terminal and you have a full kubuntu (kde) system
[16:58] <jordanwb> lallenlowe: thanks
[16:58] <rimdeker> jordanwb: Great, thanks for your help, will try it out
[16:58] <RaMcHiP> back in linux again
[16:58] <rimdeker> Draglor: Alright, thank you.
[16:59] <lallenlowe> rimdeker: you will then choose KDE as your session in the gdm login screen
[16:59] <Draglor> you can change which session you want to use (gnome/kde) on login rimdeker
[16:59] <switch10_> chanux: you can check your mail as well instead of in output in crontab...
[17:00] <oz1999> please go to my website. i never get anyone on it and i have been working on it for more than a year now! :(
[17:00] <jrib> !ot | oz1999

[17:00] <xangua> !ot | oz1999
[17:00] <rimdeker> lallenlowe , Draglor: Yes, I thought so, because a while back I installed Awesome Windows Manager (which is way too overwhelming for me) and I could select whether I want to use it or stick to gnome in the log-in screen
[17:00] <Trek> lol 3 OTs
[17:00] <bazhang> oz1999, dont spam
[17:00] <sine_> is there a way of install the xfc desktop

[17:02] <rimdeker> Whaddya guys think about "ricing-up" Ubuntu? I know that some people are really against it and some actually like it and think of it as one of the positive aspects of Ubuntu, or any Linux distro for that matter.
[17:02] <lallenlowe> !slang
[17:02] <lallenlowe> me no understandy "ricing up"
[17:02] <PatrickGleason> rimdeker: what is that

[17:03] <albert> write: /dev/tty7: Permission denied
[17:03] <albert> ?

[17:03] <bazhang> lallenlowe, open a PM with ubottu /msg ubottu factoid
[17:03] <chanux> Added "> /dev/null 2>&1" at the end of each command. Still no luck :(

[17:07] <lallenlowe> blendmaster: what file did you edit?
[17:07] <albert> moetunes> albert: /dev/tty7 is the one X is on - use sudo if you want to write to it - but why?:
[17:07] <albert> It just because I am learning some command. I am reading <<Unix/Linux Basics>>.
[17:07] <moetunes> k
[17:07] <blendmaster1024> lallenlowe, not file. this is at the boot menu, we went into editing modem and now need to boot
[17:07] <blendmaster1024> mode*
[17:07] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: ahhh
[17:08] <lallenlowe> exit the editor and hit b
[17:08] <blendmaster1024> lallenlowe, and i don't remember how
[17:08] <blendmaster1024> well i want to boot with changes
[17:08] <RunRoad> join #ubuntu-es
[17:08] <lallenlowe>  /join
[17:08] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: yeah, exit edit mode and hit b
[17:08] <blendmaster1024> so esc?
[17:09] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: I think
[17:09] <blendmaster1024> ok
[17:09] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: wish I had grub up, I can never remember things for sure unless I'm IN there
[17:10] <blendmaster1024> same here, which is why i ask
[17:10] <PooPsTech> Good day
[17:10] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: that will work though
[17:10] <lallenlowe> blendmaster1024: but you ARE in grub, lol

[17:11] <blendmaster1024> while he trys what i say on his lappy
[17:11] <lallenlowe> yeah, that'll work
[17:11] <martines> hello guys, is there someone out here who can help me with a slow NFS server partition? I've tried everything, but I don't seem to get it to work. Max speed from client to server is 1mb/s. Any help would be really appreciated.
[17:12] <lallenlowe> martines: perf is a very hard thing to troubleshoot, since it is actually WORKING just slow, I would need to read a packet trace
[17:13] <rexn> are there any ubuntu based security focused derivative distros such as backtrack?
[17:13] <lallenlowe> martines: ahve you tried a different file sharing protocol like ssh or ftp to verify that the problem lies with NFS?
[17:15] <sammy> so I remove gdm from all the run levels but it still starts at boot! what gives :( this is a headless machine, I don't want to waste resources on X and gnome-session and gdm.
[17:16] <martines> lallenlowe : I've tried ssh, same problem. I didn't try ftp yet. I've used different setups for the fstab and exports, manually mounted the partitions, automatically mounted the partitions, but without any suc6. I also tried different solutions stated on internet sites, but unfortunately no luck.
[17:16] <lallenlowe> so it's the same problem with ssh and nfs, certainly not and ssh problem, probably a network issue
[17:16] <chanux> Only the shutdown entry in cron works. Maybe because it's in /sbin?
[17:17] <Rebelstar> Hi,help required in compiz settings.How to restore default from root ?
[17:17] <martines> lallenlowe : Even copying from one partition to another partition on the same disk goes max 1Mb/sec. Really weird
[17:17] <seyfarth> Hey guys, any idea if/where the drupal6 package installation drops a directory for apache's www folder?
[17:17] <Cobwesel> Hey guys, looking for some help with folder permissions
[17:17] <switch10_> martines: ssh into the server and see what processes are running..
[17:17] <lallenlowe> martines: now THAT is weird
[17:18] <martines> lallenlowe : I even used different network cards, and cables, but without any luck
[17:18] <lallenlowe> well it's not network if it happens on the local
[17:18] <Rebelstar> Hi,help required in compiz settings.How to restore default from root ?
[17:18] <lallenlowe> sounds like an io, or hard drive problem
[17:18] <martines> switch10 : sorry I'm really new to this, how can I see the processes?
[17:18] <switch10_> martines: top
[17:18] <lallenlowe> rebelstar: huh?
[17:19] <budmaddock2> switch10: ps ax
[17:19] <Rebelstar> lallenlowe: hi, the ccsm settings for animation and all..i tried checking those options in preferences>ccsm and my system stopped working
[17:19] <Cobwesel> I installed Apache and when I goto /www I'm not allowed to edit or delete files. how do I grant my self permission to the folder?
[17:19] <Rebelstar> lallenlowe:so i wanted to rstore original settings
[17:20] <jrib> !permissions > Cobwesel
[17:20] <ElizaPickles> j
[17:20] <jrib> Cobwesel: I would recommend setting up a group like www-editors
[17:20] <martines> switch10 : what is it exactly that you need to know from the prosesses
[17:20] <lallenlowe> Rebelstar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure compiz etc.
[17:21] <switch10_> martines: look at cpu/meme usage is there something that is eating up any resources?
[17:21] <Rebelstar> lallenlowe: actually i had tried  " gconftool -- recursive -unset/apps/panel" from root as given in some forum but it dint work....i will try urs
[17:21] <martines> switch10_ : No, it is not going above 1% or 0,1%
[17:24] <flyguy97> Will I be able to do a direct upgrade from lynx beta to the final version?
[17:24] <bazhang> flyguy97, sure; #ubuntu+1 for further discussion support
[17:24] <flyguy97> bazhang: thank you
[17:24] <chanux> Only the shutdown command work in my cron. Anyone have an idea? http://dpaste.com/178839 (my cron entries)
[17:25] <eremite> flyguy97: not sure about lynx, I dont use it.  I use w3m and it's great.  I believe it does tables better than lynx does, or at least that's what Ive read.

[17:25] <Trek> valari: or #defocus :P
[17:25] <Cobwesel> jrib: set up a group like www-editors even for local machine work? or is that more for remote work?
[17:25] <valari> the channe; that has normal discussion
[17:26] <valari> ??
[17:26] <Aciid> valari: #defocus
[17:26] <flyguy97> eremite: I was actually talking about Ubuntu 10.04
[17:26] <switch10_> martines: no, sorry.  we know it is a problem with your server, and not your network..
[17:27] <resno> i am trying to dual head. when i change the settings and it works. the menu bars disappear and terminal text disappears.

[17:28] <KettleCorn> Does anyone know what to apt-get to install Palimpsest Disk Utility?
[17:28] <martines> switch10_ : I think that reinstalling my server would be the best option, because I have really no idea what I can do anymore to make it work.
[17:28] <switch10_> martines: how old is the server?  is it possible that the hard drives only support 1 mb/s max??
[17:28] <switch10_> martines: did it ever work faster?
[17:28] <KettleCorn> I've tried palimpsest and also gnome-disk-utility. Can't find any homepage for it
[17:28] <uglyduck> what's the best way to learn about IRC, this is my first time?
[17:28] <dobrotin> прива
[17:28] <norbi905> maybe I don't understand this correctly.  I want to launch an app from the terminal but also give the terminal focus after the app is launched.  So I do "Firefox &", but this puts firefox in background so when I do "jobs" it lists it.  Is this normal?  Is there a performance hit by doing it this way, as opposed to launching firefox from the menu?
[17:29] <wick94> hi
[17:29] <alden> uglyduck: http://irchelp.org/irchelp/new2irc.html
[17:30] <uglyduck> hello
[17:30] <martines> switch10_ : Yes, when I installed my server it worked for 2 days after that it "crashed". The server is about 5 years old, and has 2 disks in there. I have the same problem with both disks.
[17:30] <uglyduck> thanks
[17:30] <wick94> hey uglyduck
[17:30] <switch10_> martines: ya i would try a clean reinstall of the server then..
[17:30] <alden> uglyduck: and more importantly, http://freenode.net/channel_guidelines.shtml
[17:30] <budmaddock2>  norbi905: normal yes, performance hit don't think so.
[17:31] <uglyduck> thanks for the links
[17:31] <martines> switch10_ : could it have something to do with the fact that I have a 2 CPU server? I read something about installing a different kernel for a 2 CPU server?

[17:32] <jobob> hi sorry for delay
[17:33] <switch10_> martines: I would do a clean reinstall before messing with compiling a kernel.
[17:33] <switch10_> martines: you should be ok if it worked at one time
[17:33] <norbi905> anyoneofus:  I don't believe it comes by default, you might have to install it compizconfig-settings-manager
[17:34] <uglyduck> I'll check out the links, is there any words of advice or you could give as I give this whole IRC thing a try?
[17:34] <martines> switch10_ : I think I will do that. I'll let you know if it worked or not. Thanx for your help.

[17:36] <FriedrichMan> sure but I don't even know whats the file I need to modify in order to do that

[17:39] <jdeloach> FriedrichMan: No, but go to the bar at the top and right click on your internet connection ( wired or wireless ) and hit Connection Information, under DefaultRoute it should list your router IP.

[17:41] <jdeloach> FriedrichMan: Okay, then go there in a browser and look for static IP, from there it should be explanatory, if not, tell me our question.
[17:42] <fenris> hi
[17:42] <FriedrichMan>  jdeloach: I'll check that out
[17:43] <jdeloach> FriedrichMan: switch10_ way of doing it is simpler, but this is a better overall way with less possible screw ups. You choose which way you want.
[17:43] <Cobwesel> chmod: changing permissions of `/var/www/': Operation not permitted
[17:43] <Cobwesel> any reason for that?
[17:43] <erUSUL> jdeloach: search in synaptic for nvidia-glx packages remove them or use System>Admin...>hardware drivers
[17:43] <jdeloach> Cobwesel: Just 'sudo' it!
[17:44] <Cobwesel> haha thanks
[17:44] <switch10_> jdeloach: I cant setup a static IP from my router unfortunately...
[17:45] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: I saw that config now...but what's the way to say 'I want this MAC to always get this ip'?
[17:45] <jdeloach> erUSUL: It shows that I have none, but that is contrary to what xorg.0.log says. When loading the GLX driver it says its made by Nvidia.
[17:45] <erUSUL> jdeloach: use synaptic then
[17:45] <rodriguezjfz> cobwesel: try sudo chown
[17:45] <jdeloach> erUSUL: I did. Still nothing shows that it's installed.
[17:45] <5EXAALUSL> I need a command to monitor network activity of all users and all applications.
[17:45] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: if you edit interfaces, it will tie the IP to that mac address..
[17:46] <erUSUL> jdeloach: maybe you used the *.run from the nvidia.com site ? or envyng ?
[17:46] <FriedrichMan> but how is that MAC signaled in your config?
[17:46] <Cobwesel> sudo chmod worked, it was weird when i did ls -l it was showing me permissions for the file its self inside, how ca i view permissions on the folder?
[17:46] <McL0VIN_> good morning everyone, is there is a way i can search a dir for a file that contain a specific pattern , e.g i want to search /var/www for all the files that contain "http://www.something.com/image.png"
[17:46] <erUSUL> 5EXAALUSL: define network activity ? bandwith? open connections?
[17:47] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: Im not sure, but it works
[17:47] <jdeloach> erUSUL: I used envyng I believe, but according to that, I have no drivers installed ( as I am using opensource ati and no propreities )
[17:47] <arrelenic> hey, i'm trying to create an avi (mjpeg) out of a bunch of jpegs. usually i use mjpegtools but this time it doesn't work. any suggestion what i could use instead?
[17:47] <norbi905> FriedrichMan, Not an expert or anything but things such as eth0 eth1 eth2 are your ethernet ports, each port has a different MAC address, ifconfig will display the MAC associated with that port.  Assign the IP to that port.
[17:47] <5EXAALUSL> Anyone know of a command, like "top", that will monitor how much bandwidth each user and application is using real time (that shows all activity at once, like top does for processor utilization).
[17:47] <erUSUL> jdeloach: i'm not familiar with envyng ... if it says everything is removed then it must be right?
[17:48] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: so what's the ip that will be automatically asigned to the computer in your config file?
[17:48] <erUSUL> 5EXAALUSL: iftop (per app)
[17:48] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:48] <jdeloach> erUSUL: But my xorg.0.log says it's using Nvidia GLX drivers, how do I get it to use ATI's GLX drivers and where would I find them ( the opensource ones )
[17:48] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: my gateway is the same as yours..
[17:49] <erUSUL> jdeloach: opensource ones are installed by default ...
[17:49] <erUSUL> jdeloach: post the log in pastebin
[17:49] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: dont mess with auto lo!!
[17:49] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: so if I overwrite my /etc/network/interfaces with your config file... should it work?
[17:49] <5EXAALUSL> erUSUL, know of anything that will show all apps without scripting?
[17:49] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: its a good chace it will..  back up yours!!
[17:49] <switch10_> chance*
[17:49] <FriedrichMan> ok, I will try that now
[17:50] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: this will bypass network manager FYI...
[17:50] <erUSUL> 5EXAALUSL: netstat or ss will show all connections but not bandwith afaik. maybe ntop (but it is far more advanced)
[17:50] <FriedrichMan> do I need to stop some processes or anything like that in /etc/init.d?
[17:50] <jdeloach> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/EdPwQrWu
[17:50] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: make sure you are using eth0 as your interface...
[17:51] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: or change it to your interface..
[17:51] <FriedrichMan> and how do I check that?
[17:51] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: ifconfig
[17:51] <FriedrichMan> ok... the first one is eth0 indeed
[17:51] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: and it has an assigned IP?
[17:52] <FriedrichMan> i don't know
[17:52] <FriedrichMan> how do I check that?
[17:52] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: is there something under "inet address"?
[17:53] <FriedrichMan> Direc. inet:<IP_ADDRESS>  Difus.:<IP_ADDRESS>  Másc:<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:53] <FriedrichMan>           Dirección inet6: fe80::2e0:4dff:fea2:bf4/64 Alcance:Enlace
[17:53] <gratz|home> How can I find out what is using a specific device? I have a usb device that as soon as I plug in I can't talk to programmatically through pyusb (libusb) as it responds with 'could not claim interface 0: Device or resource busy'
[17:53] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: ya use eth0
[17:53] <bogor> Is there anybody from Delhi or NCR (india) who can share ubuntu 9.10 live cd with me. I have limited bandwidth.
[17:53] <dododoo> help, my laptop wont boot.  it says "ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/longid does not exist.  Dropping in to a shell!"  Then I just see busybox.  I can still boot into windows partition on the drive.  I did not change anything to my knowledge...help
[17:54] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: so the overwriting is safe?
[17:54] <dododoo> it will not boot normal or recovery
[17:54] <McL0VIN_> good morning everyone, is there is a way i can search a dir for a file that contain a specific pattern , e.g i want to search /var/www for all the files that contain "http://www.something.com/image.png"
[17:54] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: ya its safe.  save a copy of yours though...
[17:54] <FriedrichMan> ok, thanks
[17:55] <dododoo> clearly the HDD is still there since it will boot windows still, the grub  menu is still there too
[17:55] <roy_hobbs> As far as I can tell, I'm supposed to be able to save info in PDF forms with evince (ubuntu 9.10). However this feature is not working. Any suggestions?

[17:59] <FriedrichMan> well, I did that already and just asked my wife to ifconfig
[17:59] <erUSUL> jdeloach: that is Xorg.0.log
[17:59] <guntbert> McL0VIN_: grep "<yourpattern> *
[17:59] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: after you save the file you have to restart the network service..

[18:00] <chazco> How can I mount an FTP share? The "Connect to Server" option doesn't work with this...
[18:00] <erUSUL> jdeloach: well i dunno where the glx nvidia extension is comming from but shouldn't interfere with the radeon driver
[18:01] <erUSUL> jdeloach: btw you have 3d accleration disabled dunno why
[18:01] <jdeloach> erUSUL: How could I turn it on?
[18:01] <dododoo> I cant get to anything on /  only the stuff from busybox.  if I try mount -a it says that cannot read /etc/fstab.  Also, I am on 9.10/dell E6500 and I do have my user dir encrypted
[18:01] <erUSUL> jdeloach: i dunno what the problem is; maybe the radeon kernel driver is not loading ?
[18:01] <McL0VIN_> guntbert: so i can do this grep "herf=\"http\:\/\/virtuemart\.net\"" path to dir
[18:01] <erUSUL> jdeloach: lsmod | grep radeon
[18:02] <bogor> dododoo, u need a entry in /etc/fstab for mount -a to work
[18:02] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: all of this cause I wanna have a NFS with her
[18:03] <bogor> dododoo, better mount with mount -t <type> /dev/<device> /<mount point >
[18:03] <guntbert> McL0VIN_: nearly (your pattern should start with href not herf :-) and you want to add a * after pathToDir (like /var/www/*)
[18:03] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: haha yes it is best to have a static IP then...
[18:03] <dododoo> bogor: I assure you there was one there last night when I went to bed and shutdown
[18:03] <moegreen2> can someone please help me set it up so i can permantly mount a network drive in my building?
[18:03] <dododoo> I've been on 9.10 since Jan
[18:03] <moegreen2> on a windows share
[18:04] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: do you know whether nfs-server-kernel works on ubuntu or not?
[18:04] <HandyGandy> What would be the best approach to a remote linux desktop on a LAN?
[18:04] <switch10_> FriedrichMan: not sure

[18:04] <erUSUL> !vnc | HandyGandy
[18:04] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: any servers that should?
[18:05] <dododoo> bogor: if it will just mount the root device, it would see all of that

[18:07] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: yes, so far so good
[18:07] <wildc4rd> evening all

[18:09] <FriedrichMan> switch10_: thanks... now another question then... Lol
[18:09] <dododoo> I think I may be in a ramdisk busybox shell or something
[18:09] <jdeloach> erUSUL: would it be possible to play a GLX game?

[18:09] <erUSUL> jdeloach: as things are now; no
[18:10] <bogor> dododoo, not sure*
[18:10] <erUSUL> jdeloach: check « glxinfo | grep -i direct »

[18:37] <sandra1> how can i get the "consola"?(spanish)
[18:38] <guntbert> ExeX: lucid support in #ubuntu+1 please
[18:38] <ExeX> wat
[18:38] <guntbert> !es | sandra1
[18:38] <Kasm279> whats the location of the trash folder?
[18:38] <ExeX> i dont understand wat are u saying
[18:38] <kent> How do i enable an ATI graphics card on Ubuntu 9.10?
[18:39] <moetunes> Rimdeker: you might need the proprietry drivers for that to improve - they get loaded during boot - I don't know why the login screen would be so wrong
[18:39] <guntbert> ExeX: you have problems with lucid - /join #ubuntu+1
[18:39] <Kasm279> kent: that depends on the card
[18:39] <ExeX> ok thanks
[18:39] <kent> Its an ATI x300
[18:40] <kent> I am trying to play games in 3d but it keeps saying I don't have a 3d accelarator
[18:40] <Kasm279> whats the / path to the Trash folder?
[18:40] <sandra1> dónde lo tengo que escribir??
[18:40] <kent> how do i get that?
[18:40] <isolat3dsh33p> hello, what's the best webcam application for linux? Beside Cheese
[18:40] <Kasm279> kent: open up a terminal and type in 'mac ati'
[18:40] <Rimdeker> moetunes: I do have the propriertry drivers (using ATI). I guess , i'm stuck with it :/ maybe a future update will solve that issue..
[18:40] <Kasm279> err
[18:40] <Kasm279> kent: i mean 'mac ati'
[18:40] <Kasm279> man*
[18:41] <Kasm279> 'man ati' <--- that
[18:41] <moetunes> Rimdeker: which ubuntu version pls?
[18:41] <nishanth> blakkheim: i installed ffmpeg . now what?
[18:41] <Rimdeker> moetunes: 9.10
[18:41] <moetunes> k
[18:41] <Kasm279> kent: you need to instakk tge ATi drivers, but you will have to foind out which one to install
[18:41] <kent> i am not on a mac though i am on a dell dimention 8400
[18:42] <Kasm279> kent: 'man ati' not mac
[18:42] <The_Toxic_Mite> Hello
[18:42] <kent> so... if i install the ATI drivers it should atomaticly enable my ATI graphics card?
[18:42] <Kasm279> most likely
[18:42] <blakkheim> nishanth: man ffmpeg
[18:42] <The_Toxic_Mite> My CPU keeps going from ~5% to 100% at intervals, and I don't know what process is causing that to happen
[18:43] <Kasm279> The_Toxic_Mite: open up Activity Monitor
[18:43] <Kasm279> err System Monitor*
[18:43] <The_Toxic_Mite> I have HT off BTW
[18:43] <Kasm279> my head is stuck in Macs today >.>
[18:43] <The_Toxic_Mite> Kasm279, lol
[18:43] <The_Toxic_Mite> it says 15% now
[18:43] <Kasm279> The_Toxic_Mite: so im assuming a Prescott CPU?
[18:44] <WebDawg> why when i remove software with apt-get does it leave the config files?
[18:44] <The_Toxic_Mite> I think so
[18:44] <Kasm279> i have HT on here
[18:44]  * The_Toxic_Mite isn't good with CPU microarchitectures
[18:44] <kent> kasm279: ok i opened up 'man  ati' now what?
[18:44] <blakkheim> WebDawg: aptitude purge packagename
[18:44] <The_Toxic_Mite> I have HT disabled to see if that calms the CPU down
[18:44] <Kasm279> kent: look to see if your card is listed anywhere
[18:44] <pratik_narain> WebDawg: use apt-get purge instead of remove
[18:45] <purplebluesilver> erUSUL, IN Itunes they are not mp3 are they? OK I have a liveCD in. I'll look at it.
[18:45] <WebDawg> thanks
[18:45] <rhcp1253> Anybody know how much red hat Linux costs? I see lots of information on thier site but none of it makes any sense
[18:46] <Kasm279> The_Toxic_Mite: im not having any spiking issues here, and im running without any hardware graphics acceleration
[18:46] <Seveas> rhcp1253, why not ask in #redhat ?
[18:46] <rhcp1253> O
[18:46] <blakkheim> rhcp1253: if none of it makes sense then you probably don't need redhat
[18:46] <kent> kasm279: How do i know that is is listed on here? it just tells me what ATI is and stuff
[18:46] <rhcp1253> On freenode? Arty new to rlthe whole irc thing
[18:46] <pratik_narain> rhcp1253: use fedora
[18:46] <Kasm279> hm
[18:46] <G-Farkas> Hi, is there a simple way to install nautilus and evince 2.30 in ubuntu karmic?
[18:46] <The_Toxic_Mite> Kasm279, right. I have desktop effects enabled. The last time I had 'buntu, the CPU didn't spike at all
[18:47] <blakkheim> G-Farkas: compile them
[18:47] <Kasm279> The_Toxic_Mite: did you open up System Monitor and take a look?
[18:47] <kent> kasm279: do you think we could screen share or something so you can help me?
[18:47] <The_Toxic_Mite> Yeah
[18:47] <rhcp1253> I'm looking for a reliable server for my small bussiness
[18:47] <G-Farkas> blakkheim, and simpler?
[18:47] <blakkheim> G-Farkas: it is very simple
[18:47] <The_Toxic_Mite> Kasm279, the CPU's at ~15% at the moment
[18:47] <perlsyntax> Does anyone know where i can find perl 5.10.1 for ubuntu 9.10?
[18:47] <Seveas> rhcp1253, ubuntu server will do, as will red hatm debian or centos.
[18:47] <Kasm279> kent: im not really the one that can help you, i dont know what the ATi driver packages are
[18:48] <Kasm279> kent: ask in #ATi
[18:48] <G-Farkas> blakkheim, no dependence problems?
[18:48] <kent> ok
[18:48] <blakkheim> G-Farkas: not difficult to figure out yourself
[18:48] <perlsyntax> ?
[18:49] <Kasm279> The_Toxic_Mite: my CPU hasn't spiked over 10% except when im typing
[18:49] <Milp_main> The cursor of my terminal window is invisible for some reason, how do i fix this?
[18:49] <rhcp1253> I am farmiliar with ubuntu, but mostly the desktop. Server is the same as logging in a session in xterm right?
[18:49] <perlsyntax> anyone know
[18:49] <pratik_narain> rhcp1253: ubuntu server is a good option. Wait for 10.04 lts
[18:49] <rhcp1253> K will do thank for your help
[18:51] <Serraphyn> Is there a fix or known release time for a fix for the audio issues going on in ubuntu?
[18:52] <The_Toxic_Mite> 60% CPU
[18:52] <Symmetria> heh
[18:52] <Symmetria> wow that was a scary coupla minutes, I remotely rebooted a server
[18:52] <pal0bre> Info:      Processes 132 Uptime 9 min Memory 210.4/1002.4MB Client X-Chat 2.8.6 inxi 1.2.6
[18:52] <Symmetria> and it took 37 minutes to come back up
[18:52] <Seveas> Symmetria, fsck?
[18:52] <Symmetria> because the thing decided to run full disk checks before it actually came up
[18:52] <Symmetria> seveas yeah
[18:52] <Seveas> :)
[18:52] <Symmetria> on 32 terabytes of disk space
[18:52] <Symmetria> ;p
[18:52] <martin7821> wow
[18:53] <t3chkommie> symmetria :S oh man.. i would have been uber scared!
[18:53] <Seveas> Symmetria, yeah, the joy of necer rebooting :)
[18:53] <Kasm279> whats the directory of the trash can? (in the /x/x format)
[18:53] <Seveas> Symmetria, no management card?
[18:53] <fwaokda> if i have 4 folders in a location that i want to tar up how do i do that?  there are other folders in there however i dont want to tar up
[18:53] <Symmetria> seveas not on that particular box unfortunately
[18:53] <Serraphyn> fwaokda, man tar
[18:54] <kamil> helolo
[18:54] <Symmetria> heh had no choice but to reboot it though, its ip stack had gotten into a horrible knot
[18:54] <Buggaboo> hey guys
[18:54] <kamil> where I am?
[18:54] <D3RGPS31> I have an ati 4850; the fglrx drivers make moving windows/video playback choppy, and the radeon/hd drivers make things slightly choppy; what can i do besides buy a different brand?
[18:54] <Seveas> Symmetria, you clogged the tubes!
[18:54] <Symmetria> couldnt get more than like, 4megabytes/second on a single tcp session outta it
[18:54] <Symmetria> now that its rebooted im getting 400Mbytes/second ;p
[18:54] <kamil> ??
[18:54]  * Symmetria kicks stupid intel 10G nic that probably got confused
[18:54] <Buggaboo> Is there a kernel that's specially compiled for vm hosts in ubuntu?
[18:54] <Seveas> !hi | kamil
[18:54] <Kasm279> whats the directory of the trash can? (in the /x/x format)
[18:55] <Seveas> !trash | Kasm279
[18:55] <Kasm279> thanks
[18:55] <fwaokda> Serraphyn, how do i get out of this man page?
[18:55] <ddrj> excuse me guys but when an item shows up like that... /.local/share/Trash, does that mean that the /local/ dir is being hidden ?
[18:55] <iceroot> ddrj: yes
[18:55] <Buggaboo> mv ~/.Trash ~/.Trash.old && ln -s ~/.local/share/Trash ~/.Trash
[18:55] <ddrj> ahhh ok thanks, newbie here, still learning
[18:56] <Serraphyn> ddrj, ~ means home directory
[18:56] <iceroot> ddrj: everything starting with . is hidden
[18:56] <Seveas> ddrj, many tools by default hide files/directories whose name starts with a .
[18:56] <pal0bre> fwaokda: try CTRL+Y
[18:56] <Seveas> ddrj, there is nothing special abotu these files/directories apart from their name though.  I think im not the only one that needs a .deb or something like this...
[18:59] <Symmetria> (and 64gigs of ram)
[18:59] <V4mp> O_O
[18:59] <Seveas> not bad. A mirror.ac.za box I presume? :)
[18:59] <Symmetria> Seveas yeah
[18:59] <ntucker> hello #ubuntu
[18:59] <Seveas> hello ntucker
[18:59] <Milp_main> Someone help me please, i dont have a blinking text cursor at all when i open a terminal
[19:00] <Symmetria> mirror.ac.za is now up to a combined 150 odd gigs of ram, like, 30+ cpu cores and almost 80 terabytes of disk space
[19:00] <Symmetria> ;p
[19:00] <blakkheim> G-Farkas: or you could use a distro that stays up to date
[19:00] <Symmetria> on the combined system
[19:00] <Seveas> Symmetria, not too shabby :-)
[19:00] <ntucker> i'm trying to follow the "how to report a bug" instructions, but they don't really tell you what to do if you have no idea what component the bug you are reporting is in
[19:00] <wallace110> #help
[19:00] <pal0bre> Audio:     Card nVidia CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller driver Intel ICH at ports f000 ec00
[19:00] <pal0bre>            Sound: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Version 1.0.20
[19:00] <Buggaboo> Symmetria, you got a "cloud"? Or scientific computation?
[19:00] <purplebluesilver> I used music player to open folder in the itunes library and nothing happened. I used the folder with the artist name. I also did it on the complete previous itunes library folder (full of mp3 files only) and nothing happened.
[19:00] <ntucker> #help ?
[19:01] <Seveas> Buggaboo, .ac.za == academic. It's the main FOSS mirror for .za I believe
[19:01] <Symmetria> Seveas is correct, though more than just for .za
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> Isent there a #ubuntu-bugs channel also?
[19:01] <Symmetria> its the main FOSS mirror for a lot of things :)
[19:01] <Seveas> Dr_Willis, there is
[19:01] <G-Farkas> blakkheim, fedora takes care of its users
[19:01] <wallace110> no im testing :D
[19:01] <Symmetria> it also serves a substantial percentage of global mozilla downloads
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> I never really make new bugs.. i just confirm other peoples bugs :)
[19:02] <ntucker> Dr_Willis, dunno, but the "Reporting Bugs" page refers me to #ubuntu
[19:02] <Seveas> Symmetria, what kind of bandwidth do you have 1G or 10G?
[19:02] <Buggaboo> Symmetria, sweeeeet.
[19:02] <Seveas> hmm, add a comma where appropriate...
[19:02] <pal0bre> what is better to use (KDE,GNOME,LxDE or XFCE)???
[19:02] <ntucker> oh, looks like further down the page they refer me to #ubuntu-bugs.  heading there...
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> pal0bre:  use whatever one you like.. Unless you got really limited hardware
[19:02] <Symmetria> Seveas umm heh, thats a complex question, the primary frontend in Johannesburg has a 10G nic into a router with *hrm* around 40 gig of bandwidth into it
[19:03] <Symmetria> the london server has a 10G nic into a router with 30gig of bandwidth into it
[19:03] <rabbit1> how to record a youtube video ?
[19:03] <Symmetria> the Cape Town server has a 10G nic into a router with about 20gig of bandwidth
[19:03] <Symmetria> :)
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:  theres download extensions for firefox to save them to a local file
[19:03] <Symmetria> (thats just looking at egress/ingress links into the network that come into the routers those boxes are behind)
[19:03] <pal0bre> Dr_Willis : What Is The Diffrence Between Them?
[19:03] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: o great thx
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> pal0bre:  like asking whats the differance btween a dodge neon and a ford tarus.. they are different designs.. try them all out. see what you like
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> pal0bre:  some have diffrent 'focus/design goals' then others.. most all are very useable these days
[19:04] <Symmetria> but pure international is a 10G outta .za, then internally in .za there around 50gig to various internet exchanges, isps and pni's
[19:04] <PatrickGleason> Dr_Willis:  more like the difference between an Aston Martin and an Enzo ;-)
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> PatrickGleason:  I work for Chrysler. :)
[19:05] <Seveas> Symmetria, right, so you're a bit closer to the IX than I thought
[19:05] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: will that ext work on other sites as well ?
[19:05] <Symmetria> heh Seveas we have points of presence in the same building as both .za IX's
[19:05] <PatrickGleason> Dr_Willis: haha nice.
[19:05] <Symmetria> and a point of presence in London in Hex 8/9 that is also a point of presence for LINX
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> rabbit1:   it has support fro a great many sites.. and theres dozens of such extensions
[19:06] <Symmetria> and in London we also have 2 x 10G to NTT (one in hex 8/9 and one in TCH)
[19:06] <bayo_O> hi
[19:06] <Seveas> Symmetria, where's hex 8/9 in london?
[19:06] <bayo_O> anybody know where we can have help about empathy?
[19:06] <rabbit1> Dr_Willis: kool, thx
[19:07] <Symmetria> seveas docklands area
[19:07] <Milp_main> Someone help me please, i dont have a blinking text cursor at all when i open a terminal
[19:07] <cs02rm0> how can i rename all .JPG files in a folder to .jpg?
[19:07] <gardar> Milp_main, press the insert button on your keyboard
[19:07] <Seveas> cs02rm0, rename s/JPG/jpg/ *.JPG
[19:08] <cs02rm0> Seveas: superb, thanks a lot
[19:08] <Milp_main> thank you gardar, that fixed it among other things
[19:08] <karan> hi
[19:08] <colorlessprism> hello
[19:08] <max_> Does anyone know how to fix the screen tearing in compiz fusion specifically when watching videos? I've tried several different things but nothing has worked so far.
[19:08] <karan> i installed the game warsow on ubuntu
[19:08] <gardar> !hello | karan
[19:08] <karan> but
[19:08] <gardar> !hello | colorlessprism
[19:08] <karan> when i launch it
[19:09] <karan> all tht happens is my screens resoloution changes
[19:09] <karan> what do i do?
[19:09] <colorlessprism> what version you using?
[19:09] <soreau> max_: Which graphics driver are you using?
[19:09] <karan> i dont know
[19:09] <karan> when
[19:09] <pal0bre> max_: in ccsm you have the video playback plugin
[19:09] <karan> i installed ubuntu i used the dirvers
[19:09] <max_> Soreau, default installed for my 9800GTX+ on Ubuntu 9.10
[19:09] <karan> tht we pre loaded
[19:10] <karan> cuz compiz n all tht works fine
[19:10] <max_> If I move a window slowly, there's really obvious tearing
[19:10] <V4mp> that was an interesting bit of information between Seveas and Symmetria lol
[19:10] <karan> i have an ati mobility radeaon fire gl or something
[19:10] <soreau> max_: Oh yea, nvidia driver sucks for this. Make sure vsync is enabled in nvidia settings and sync to vblank is enabled in ccsm>general options
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> max_:  if using compiz theres a vsync option.
[19:10] <karan> i disabled compiz
[19:10] <karan> i dont use it
[19:10] <max_> Dr.Willis, I've tried that too. Didn't work.
[19:10] <karan> but i am able to htough
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> be sure to enable it in the nvidia settings also max_
[19:11] <Seveas> V4mp, Symmetria has a fun job :) I have the same job but for a company that doesn't allow me to share as much information.
[19:11] <karan> so how do i get warsow to work
[19:11] <max_> Yep, it is
[19:11] <V4mp> Seveas, certainly sounds like a fun job alright for some
[19:11] <karan> join #<mintlinux>
[19:13] <max_> is 185.18.36 the latest driver available?
[19:13] <max_> (nvidia drivers)
[19:13] <PatrickGleason> does anyone here use ubuntu for web design?
[19:16] <dododoo> okay, I have more information now.  I booted off of 9.10 cd and I can see the partition in gparted...I ran fsck on it and no errors....so my guess is that there is something not happy in grub.  Is there a way to get grub to boot off of /dev/sda5,  get into ubuntu as normal and then run the grub configure thing to fix the uuid problem?
[19:16] <blakkheim> max_: if it's in the ubuntu repository, probably not
[19:16] <max_> Okay, Blakkheim.
[19:16] <progre55> hi people! I've just bought a comp, and it has only 1 partition with win7 on it. is it okay to install linux and re-partition it while installing? I mean, it would still be on the same physical partition.. hope windows would not affect my linux files afterwards..
[19:17] <pal0bre> progre55: not at all
[19:17] <BluesKaj> progre55, dual boot ?
[19:17] <progre55> yeah, dual
[19:17] <pal0bre> progre55: just make sure you use the guided partitioning
[19:18] <PatrickGleason> BluesKaj: he means a REAL dual boot. SIMULTANEOUS INSTALLS
[19:18] <PatrickGleason> bwahaha
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  windows has a tool/feature to resize its partitions - that maybe MUCH faster then letting Linux do it.
[19:18] <hashed_> progre55: it's a whole lot easier when windows is installed first :)
[19:18] <progre55> okay cool, then I'll be back to my lovely ubuntu soon =
[19:18] <pal0bre> progre55 : or you can install virtualBox
[19:19] <progre55> hashed_: it is installed.. it's the native os for the vaio I just bought
[19:19] <ekp> Guys, I have a file system on a usb. USB now won't boot. Currently on Live CD, but I can't even open the USb because of this message: 'Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so'.
[19:19] <progre55> I would have removed it.. but dont want to do it on the first day =)
[19:19] <progre55> used to have just ubuntu on my old comp.. but it died today )
[19:19] <BluesKaj> it might be easier to partition for linux first then install, progre55
[19:19] <hashed_> i'd be doing the same thing.  i am actually somewhat happy with 7 though
[19:19] <dododoo> another weird thing though, while in the cd if I go to /dev/disk/by-uuid there is an entry for the swap partition, but not the /dev/sda5.....did /dev/sda5 loose its UUID somehow?
[19:19] <progre55> BluesKaj: how?
[19:20] <pal0bre> progre55: just install virtualbox
[19:20] <BluesKaj> progre55, with gparted live cd
[19:20] <progre55> pal0bre: and have linux in the box?
[19:20] <pal0bre> progre55: the latest has opengl2.0 support
[19:20] <progre55> I'd rather have windows in the box, and linux natively installed =)
[19:21] <Mkools> Dr Willis: Can you please solve my Evolution problem.
[19:21] <max_> How do I save settings in nvidia x server settings? Every time I exit it vsync becomes disabled and whenever i reboot my computer only one of two displays initiates.
[19:21] <NBH> Guys! I'm trying to do a USB stick drive installation. Anything particularly amiss you can see here? http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/258/greenshot20100402191756.jpg
[19:21]  * hashed_ agrees with progre55
[19:21]  * eremite too
[19:21]  * Dr_Willis waves his magical wand and solves Mkools  evolution problem
[19:21] <pal0bre> progre55: you can also use wubi to avoid partitioning
[19:21] <progre55> BluesKaj: well, instead of wasting a cd, cant I just re-partition it while installing ubuntu? is it just the matter of time required for partitioning? or anything crucial?
[19:22] <eremite> progre55: partitioning takes only a few minutes
[19:22] <ekp> Anybody any idea about that error message?
[19:22]  * NBH isn't sure what he's doing wrong right now
[19:22] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: ?
[19:22] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  windows can resize partitions MUCH faster then linux/gparted/the installer can (the few times ive rembered to try it)
[19:23] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  resizeing can take time..  be sure to defrag the windows drive first also.
[19:23] <BluesKaj> ok, if you have the time progre55 , go for it ,but use the guided partitioning as pal0bre suggested
[19:23] <XVO> Has anyone gotten an "invalid magic number" error using GRUB to load a CentOS kernel? I can't seem to get a decent hit on it in Google.
[19:23] <progre55> Dr_Willis: I've just opened the laptop from it's box, and it's totally new, just installed firefox and mirc, so I dont think defrag is required..
[19:23] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  I would bet it is very fragmented
[19:24] <hashed_> progre55: you should definitely resize the windows partition with a gparted or partedmagic to avoid data loss
[19:24] <progre55> BluesKaj: cool, I'll just install it then
[19:24] <Dr_Willis> progre55:  your windows system can proberly resize the hd. leaving some unallocated space at the end in about 20 min.. the ubuntu installer may take an hr+ depending on the details..
[19:24] <Mkools> Dr_Willis: I am able to receive mails through Evolution (gmail account) but am not able to send.
[19:24] <progre55> hashed_: but doesnt ubuntu use gparted while repartitioning?
[19:25] <BluesKaj> progre55, sorry i forgot, , but Dr_Willis is right , make sure windows is defragged first
