[18:53] <jackalista> hey folks.  I just got a new work laptop, dell latitude E6420 and can't get unbuntu to connect to my wireless (but can with the same h/w running windows).  I saw this link which says something about the wireless slider not aupported, what does that mean?  link:  http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201011-6842:201011-6843:201101-6947
[18:53] <G00053> drknzz: lemme know if it worked
[18:53] <vittu> dudes, can u help me with creating bootable usb with ubuntu, cannot find any instructions from the net instead of making bootable linux cd's
[18:53] <OmegaForte> Vittu...
[18:53] <Myrtti> OmegaForte: mind your language

[18:54] <OmegaForte> vittu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[18:54] <coz_> !samba
[18:54] <ikonia> jiltdil: it means you can't enable/disable wireless with the slider
[18:54] <OmegaForte> Myrtti, I have YET to be profane, so save your warning for somone who deservse it.
[18:54] <Blutterbob> IdleOne: same deal, page says I should do-release-upgrade, but that gives me "An upgrade from 'jaunty' to 'lucid' is not supported with this tool."
[18:54] <Myrtti> OmegaForte: nevermind
[18:54] <vittu> for some reason unetbootin does not work, it boot's to a linux system loader
[18:54] <Escherial> hey, has there been any improvement on the front of having eclipse display its menu bar in the unified menu bar?
[18:54] <Kimotouki> So
[18:54] <jiltdil> ikonia: ?????
[18:55] <Myrtti> OmegaForte: ie. wrong call, sorry
[18:55] <IdleOne> Blutterbob: this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades ?
[18:55] <coz_> Escherial,  let me check,, there may be a new fix for that hold on
[18:55] <Escherial> as of now, eclipse's menu is below the regular one, which is fine, but i'd like to reclaim some of that screen space
[18:55] <ikonia> jiltdil: sorry I meant that for jackalista
[18:55] <Escherial> coz_: cool, thank you :)
[18:55] <vittu> i am trying to make a bootable windows installation cd from ubuntu
[18:55] <vittu> sorry for misinformation
[18:55] <Myrtti> vittu: mind changing your nickname to something else?
[18:55] <vittu> i have iso image, but for some reason it seems to be quite hard
[18:55] <jiltdil> vittu just burn the  image
[18:55] <coz_> Escherial,  see if this suits you  http://blog.matto1990.com/2011/04/using-eclipse-under-ubuntu-11-04-natty/   but I am looking for a more permanent fix so hold on
[18:56] <Edler> hey guys
[18:56] <Edler> how can i in my ubuntu 10.04 LTS
[18:56] <Edler> disable GUI
[18:56] <Edler> i want to use it as an ubuntu server only
[18:56] <Edler> so i'll only connect through ssh
[18:56] <guntbert> !nox | Edler
[18:57] <OmegaForte> vittu, http://www.nliteos.com/
[18:57] <jackalista> hi ikonia, I thought you might ber replying... so when I try to connect it tries for a while but doesnt connect.  That isn't the same as the slider not disabling it, is it?
[18:57] <caddoo> whats the shortcut for workspace switcher
[18:57] <coz_> Escherial,  did you try that?
[18:57] <Escherial> coz_: that page you linked looks like it restores the menu; fortunately, my menu is displaying, but just with the slight cosmetic issue of not being displayed in the global menu
[18:57] <vittu> jiltdil: what about the mbr, i don't have cd's at the moment so i need to flash it to the usb stick
[18:57] <coz_> Escherial,  ah sorry then,, ok I am still looking
[18:57] <G00053> caddoo: ctrl + alt + arrows
[18:57] <OmegaForte> vittu, http://www.nliteos.com/ answers your question
[18:57] <Escherial> coz_: please don't look too hard; i appreciate the effort, but i don't imagine much has (or can be) done about it
[18:57] <ikonia> vittu: could you please join the channel #ubuntu-ops
[18:58] <Escherial> i was just hoping on the off chance that something new had come about while i wasn't around :3
[18:58] <coz_> Escherial,  I cant find anything of value
[18:59] <Escherial> coz_: no problem, thanks again for checking.
[18:59] <jackalista> does anyone know how to get ubuntu 11.04 to connect to wireless on a dell latitude E6420?  All I saw was this note which doesn't help, I don't think: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201011-6842:201011-6843:201101-6947
[18:59] <Escherial> i wish i knew more about the unity changes so i could have a go at it myself
[18:59] <coz_> Escherial,  let me know if you do find a solution,, it will probably come up here again
[18:59] <Escherial> coz_: sure thing :)
[18:59] <stephenthemartyr> is there a way through ubuntu(ie.terminal)for me to check the functuinality of my fan?
[19:01] <esing> Kyle__ sry for the late answer, but i gave wol finally up
[19:01] <intrader> ThinkT510, thanks - i will follow on your recommendation; virtualbox on windows and ubuntu 11.04 on top.
[19:01] <esing> i tried it twice times again but it failed
[19:01] <ThinkT510> intrader: no worries :)
[19:02] <albech> can anyone recommend a small footprint mp3 player with a minimalistic gui like the old winamp in minimized mode?

[19:02] <stercor> I'm using a German keyboard.  The keyboard layout has 4 characters for most keys.  I can get the Shift key to give me the uppercase letter, but how do I get the two other characters?
[19:04] <G00053> stercor: the other characters are different colored ?
[19:04] <extraclassic> albech: audacious has a classic view that looks like winamp
[19:04] <G00053> albech: gnome mplayer
[19:04] <guntbert> stercor: the character on the bottom is usually created with <altGr>
[19:04] <stercor> G00053: Not in the keyboard layout, or the actual keyboard.
[19:06] <eric__casel> Hi
[19:06] <eric__casel> I'm using the ubuntu Classic environment, and the title bars of the windows have disappeared.
[19:06] <eric__casel> There's no X button, so I have to right-click the thingy at the bottom.
[19:06] <eric__casel> How do I fix this?
[19:06] <stercor> guntbert: <AltGr>...I'm looking...
[19:07] <G00053> eric_casel: ry going into system > prefernces > appearance
[19:07] <Edler> hey guys
[19:07] <eric__casel> already there
[19:07] <Edler> when i open grub
[19:07] <Edler> and i edit the entry
[19:07] <guntbert> stercor: its normally on the right side of <space>
[19:07] <Edler> and add text so it opens with no x
[19:07] <Edler> then i press ctrl+x to boot it
[19:07] <Edler> it works
[19:07] <FloodBot1> Edler: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:07] <Edler> but how can i save it
[19:07] <guntbert> !enter | Edler
[19:07] <Edler> alright
[19:07] <guntbert> !grub2 | Edler
[19:07] <racho> eric__casel, alt+f2 compiz --replace or metacity --replace then compiz --replace
[19:08] <stercor> guntbert: I tried that.  Nothing.
[19:08] <stercor> mom
[19:08] <Edler> how can i save the grub configuration, cause after i rebooted the pc it went back to default boot options
[19:08] <Drknzz> G00053: Hi man! Your link made the card work like a charm, i am not using the old Linksys usb WiFi card anymore
[19:08] <guntbert> Edler: edit /etc/default/grub, then run sudo update-grub
[19:08] <Edler> thanks
[19:09] <ikonia> miksu: big thanks
[19:09] <eric__casel> uhhhh
[19:09] <Drknzz> G00053: Thanks... just another question, how can i get the exact model of this laptop? It has no model info anywhere, i only know its an HP Pavilion dm1 and i am having screen-bright issues
[19:09] <eric__casel> compiz --replace just made the windows spaz out for a moment
[19:09] <eric__casel> oh wait
[19:09] <eric__casel> actually
[19:09] <eric__casel> its back now
[19:09] <eric__casel> weird
[19:10] <racho> eric__casel, by back you mean you have the titlebar
[19:10] <eric__casel> anybody know how that happened in the first place?
[19:10] <miksu> anyways, the problem is, I have ubuntu 10.04 currently and need to get a dual boot. No cd's, just the usb. Could you pls help me out?
[19:10] <eric__casel> yes
[19:10] <ArmyMan007> usr13: i'm back
[19:10] <usr13> Ok
[19:10] <eric__casel> anybody know how that happened in the first place?
[19:10] <usr13> Is it working now?
[19:10] <stercor> guntbert: OH...the _right_ side...  Gehts gut... ẞ, usw.
[19:10] <albech> extraclassic, thanks.. exactly what i was looking for
[19:11] <OmegaForte> miksu, I anwered your question. Program called nlite. http://www.nliteos.com/
[19:11] <racho> eric__casel, sometime compiz plugins bug the compiz itself..that command is a fast restart
[19:11] <eric__casel> ahhhhh
[19:11] <eric__casel> okay, ill remember that
[19:11] <pvh_sa> hey there, i'm on ubuntu 11.04 on a toshiba laptop. since a few days ago, after running for a few (about 5-10) minutes, the machine locks up (mouse and keyboard unresponsive) and soon thereafter the laptop fans starts going crazy (suggesting high system load). anyone seen something similar?
[19:11] <eric__casel> sounds like my mom's HP thing with windows
[19:11] <guntbert> stercor: you got it :-)
[19:11] <eric__casel> overheated like crazy
[19:12] <eric__casel> eventually fried it
[19:12] <stercor> guntbert: Danke sehr.
[19:12] <eric__casel> my dad researched her model of computer
[19:12] <racho> pvh_sa, do you have to reboot or the pc goes back to normal state?
[19:12] <eric__casel> others had the same overheating issue
[19:12] <eric__casel> well whatever the issue is
[19:12] <Mark-sketching> I'm having pressure sensitivity problems in Natty on a Lenovo X200 Tablet; pressure works but reaches max pressure when I'm pressing only very lightly. I've tried many pressure curve variations using xsetwacom but it doesn't help. Just wondering if anyone knows of a patch or a solution of some kind.
[19:12] <G00053> Drknzz: one sec running back and forth between the bbq .
[19:13] <pvh_sa> racho, have to reboot (hold down power button till power goes off, boot up again)
[19:13] <guntbert> stercor: no problem :) for the future, there are german ubuntu channels too (#ubuntu-de and (rather quiet at the moment) #ubuntu-at)
[19:13] <eric__casel> i honestly like GNOME better than unity, i have no idea where anything is on unity
[19:13] <racho> pvh_sa, did you update your kernel lately?
[19:13] <mh512> i am trying to get the internet connection up dynamically on ubuntu-server with virtual.. so in my /etc/network/interfaces, i have:
[19:13] <mh512> auto eth1
[19:13] <mh512> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[19:13] <mh512> pre-sleep up
[19:13] <mh512> —> this acquires the ip address, but ping still fails.   only after I enter  $ sudo dhclient eth1
[19:13] <FloodBot1> mh512: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:13] <mh512> then will the ping succeed….   why is this so? thanks
[19:13] <G00053> Drknzz: glad it worked for you though!
[19:13] <pvh_sa> racho, and the strange thing is, i have 2.6.39 and 2.6.38 kernels, and this happens with both
[19:14] <sdimkov> so Alpha 3 comes tomorrow huh ?
[19:14] <Drknzz> G00053: Dont worry, its just the ATi driver doing its job, i think everythings fine now. Thanks :)

[19:22] <K350> what do I need - as absolute minimum - in a ubuntu GNOME system to be able to run a KDE application?
[19:22] <racho> K350, usually the application pulls and install its dependencies
[19:22] <usr13> K350: Just install the KDE app and it will do the rest.
[19:23] <WinCamXP> this computer is in Florida running Ubuntu natty, but the person actually typing into the chat is using Win 7 and controlling the Ubuntu computer with TeamViewer
[19:23] <edbian> K350: Not sure, try to install some KDE app (like kwrite) and see what it pulls in
[19:23] <guntbert> K350: sudo apt-get install <yourapp> will tell you what it intends to install
[19:23] <mensvaga> WinCamXP: I believe it.
[19:23] <WinCamXP> i could use my phone too if i wanted to :P

[19:30] <G00053> ah
[19:30] <kleanchap> I am trying to configure Samba on Ubuntu using the SWAT web interface.  The interface is prompting me for root user password.  Ubuntu does not have root user.  Currently I have only my account.
[19:30] <FroyoShark> did you try your password?
[19:30] <ikonia> kleanchap: that is a limitation of swat against ubuntu's security model
[19:30] <sneakyimp> Is *anyone* here good with postfix configuration?
[19:31] <kleanchap> FroyoShark, Yes.  I can login but cannot change anything.
[19:31] <FroyoShark> oh hm
[19:31] <wols> sneakyimp: you obviously aren't good at asking sensible questions
[19:31] <quizme> I'm trying to figure out how much memory my script requires..... http://www.pastie.org/2315895  <--- can somebody help me interpret that?
[19:31] <FroyoShark> i've never used samba so i can't really help you
[19:31] <zul_> who Knows git?
[19:31] <Chubcorp> I know this is the wrong channel, but the puppy linux irc is without activity, so does anyone know if I can post flac files on it? Thanks
[19:31] <usr13> kleanchap: How did you install swat ?
[19:31] <quizme> zul_ i know a bit
[19:31] <kleanchap> :-) Thanks though trying.
[19:31] <kunwon1> found it, this page lists the differences in kernels: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/preparing-to-install.html#intro-kernel-diffs
[19:31] <ikonia> Chubcorp: it is offtopic here, so please don't ask, more so as you know it's offtopic
[19:31] <Chubcorp> Play*
[19:31] <kleanchap> usr13, apt-get
[19:32] <nit-wit> Chubcorp, flac willrun in puppy is that the question?
[19:32] <ikonia> Chubcorp: more so as you've not even asked in the #puppylinux channel
[19:32] <ikonia> nit-wit: we do not support puppy here
[19:32] <Loshki> sneakyimp: might have better luck on #postfix....
[19:32] <sneakyimp> Well it's pretty involved, here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/658159/
[19:32] <nit-wit> ikonia, are you a mod?
[19:32] <wols> Loshki: not with the way he asks questions
[19:32] <ikonia> nit-wit: that doesn't matter, the topic of the channel is ubuntu support, not Linux
[19:32] <sneakyimp> loshki: i'm already in there.  it's more about joking around than serious answers
[19:33] <usr13> kleanchap: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Swat
[19:33] <nit-wit> ikonia,  would appreciatte if you don't address me then. ;)
[19:33] <sneakyimp> wols: i thought postfix questions might be off-topic here
[19:33] <ikonia> nit-wit: keep to the channel topic and there will be no issue
[19:33] <kleanchap> usr13, Thnx!
[19:33] <ikonia> nit-wit: but it if helps, yes I am an operator in this channel, but anyone is free to ask you to keep to the channel topic
[19:34] <nit-wit> ikonia, keep your ego to yourself report me otherwise.
[19:34] <sneakyimp> nit-wit: please spare us the b.s.  ask a serious question or leave
[19:34] <wols> sneakyimp: if you run postfix on ubuntu, it's on topic

[19:35] <sejwalk> Greetings everyone! I am trying to install ubuntu using 'install inside windows' using a usb disk. on completing 100% it gives some error saying metafile can't be downloaded
[19:35] <asteve> i need a tutorial on creating a repository for 10.04
[19:36] <G00053> asteve adding a repository ?
[19:36] <wols> sneakyimp: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-bsd-postfix-forward-email-to-another-account/
[19:36] <edbian> sejwalk: Well you're using wubi :P
[19:36] <asteve> G00053: no, i need to create my own
[19:36] <Loshki> asteve: what problem are you trying to solve?
[19:36] <edbian> sejwalk: So if you restart does it work or not?
[19:36] <claviusmond> where can I ask SED questions?
[19:36] <YankDownUnder> !repo
[19:36] <asteve> Loshki: some packages i need to install are not in any repos and i need to have tighet control over what's available
[19:36] <sejwalk> edbian: yes nothing is there on restart
[19:37] <biZZieB> hello everyone :-)
[19:37] <FroyoShark> hi
[19:37] <oCean> claviusmond: there is a channel ##sed
[19:37] <sejwalk> edbian : install inside windows from live CD work fine works great, I just don't want to waste a CD
[19:37] <claviusmond> i tried one in quakenet, is ##sed in freenode oCean
[19:37] <claviusmond> ?
[19:38] <K350> How to zoom in/out in ghome-terminal..anyone?
[19:38] <oCean> claviusmond: it is
[19:38] <FroyoShark> sejwalk: you can use unetbootin and install it on a usb flash drive
[19:38] <sejwalk> K350: ctrl + + /-
[19:38] <edbian> FroyoShark: He has it an a usb stick.  He is having trouble installing wubi
[19:38] <biZZieB> if i have a noob question will i be slain here???
[19:38] <FroyoShark> oh
[19:38] <sejwalk> FroyoShark: okay, any way to do it using Live usb creater?
[19:38] <edbian> biZZieB: no
[19:39] <FroyoShark> sejwalk: not sure, i've never used live usb creator
[19:39] <K350> sejwalk: it doesn't work
[19:39] <biZZieB> :-) thanks thats god od to know
[19:39] <biZZieB> wow I cant spell
[19:39] <sejwalk> K350: does it work from the edit menu?
[19:39] <K350> sejwalk: ok works..but not on the ++ and -- on the humber pad
[19:39] <Loshki> asteve: if it's just a handful of packages, you can just download them manually and install them. Or set up your own repo with aptoncd: http://blog.mypapit.net/2007/03/put-apt-get-repository-on-dvdcd-ubuntudebian.html but it's overkill for a small repo...
[19:39] <K350> sejwalk: phweew..thanks a LOT!!!!:-)
[19:40] <biZZieB> i have really come to love ubuntu , but the changes that will be made in the future are rather upsetting to me
[19:40] <biZZieB> i'd hate to move but it doesnt really seem like i have a choice
[19:40] <asteve> Loshki: i don't want the repo on a cd i need it on a web server
[19:40] <JustSighDudes> biZZieB: There's plenty of choices.
[19:40] <asteve> i have 30+ machines that need to get packages
[19:40] <G00053> biZZieB: just stay on 10.04
[19:40] <sejwalk> biZZieB: changes are the essence of life
[19:40] <blauefuesse> biZZieB: move to where ? debian ?
[19:40] <sejwalk> :)
[19:40] <G00053> thats how i roll
[19:40] <sneakyimp> wol: thanks for the link, but that does not appear to allow me to route all local users to their respective counterparts on my domain.
[19:40] <biZZieB> no mint actually
[19:41] <Loshki> asteve: so stick the packages on a web server. It should be trivial to surf to them, then click on them to install. Won'
[19:41] <biZZieB> staying on 10.04 sound s like a good idea
[19:41] <JustSighDudes> I'm just waiting until Debian Rolling gets rolling.
[19:41] <Loshki> asteve: so stick the packages on a web server. It should be trivial to surf to them, then click on them to install. Won't that do it?
[19:41] <FroyoShark> biZZieB: mint is based off of ubuntu, almost everything is the same
[19:41] <racho> biZZieB, i took the move before 11.04 ubuntu -> fedora
[19:41]  * ThinkT510 wonders why some people don't read the topic or the rules
[19:42] <biZZieB> how has it been racho???
[19:42] <xangua> !ot
[19:42] <blauefuesse> !topic
[19:42] <JustSighDudes> What if a topic goes from support to OT?
[19:42] <biZZieB> thanks froyo and from what i hear they are not going the same route as ubuntu in the future
[19:42] <JustSighDudes> Move channels?
[19:42] <Pici> JustSighDudes: Then move to #ubuntu-offtopic , its not hard.
[19:43] <JustSighDudes> Pici: Kinda strict for an IRC channel.
[19:43] <JustSighDudes> Anyway, any recommendations for an IP cam recorder? Zoneminder is too bloated.
[19:43] <Loshki> JustSighDudes: it kinda has to be that way, with 1600 odd participants, or we'd just get buried...
[19:43] <blauefuesse> anybody seen a cd or dvd cleaner-cdrom for linux
[19:43] <Pici> JustSighDudes: Its a busy channel. It would get even more busy if we allowed everyone to carry on in here about anything. Anyway, you can be in more than 1 channel at once.
[19:44] <coz_> JustSighDudes,  if you want a minmal security cam you could try motion
[19:44] <FroyoShark> i'm in 4 channels right now lol
[19:44] <coz_> JustSighDudes,   install that ,, plugin in cam,    sudo motion should do it
[19:44] <claviusmond> nobody in sed gives me an answer, can anyone tell me whats wrong with sed '/^1    .*$/ s/\(^.|.)\.*/ \ U & / g' /home/dexter/Compiled/FlightGear/install/fgfs/fgdata/Airports/apt.dat > newfile2?
[19:45] <Loshki> blauefuesse: just vacuum it to get the dust out. There are 'lens-cleaning' cdroms out there, but I don't think they do much...
[19:45] <jrib> claviusmond: what do you want to do?  What is it doing instead?
[19:45] <G00053> speaking of trying out other distros/versions . should my /home partition work accross different flavours of linux
[19:45] <usr13> G00053: Yes
[19:45] <Mark-sketching> Anyone know about pressure sensitivity issues in Natty on a Lenovo X200t?
[19:45] <i0x71> hey, i have a nfs share mounted on a linux box, for some reason when i create a file the timestamp is 8 hours behind ? what could be that cause of this ?
[19:45] <jrib> G00053: sort of :D  (yes, though you may encounter issues with differing software versions and config file formats)
[19:46] <G00053> usr13: so there is literally nothing to lose..
[19:46] <wols> G00053: yes and now. problem is they might use different versions of programs which put in config files into your ~ and which might be incompatible with each other
[19:46] <blauefuesse> Loshki: ahh, ok, and what about the lense itself? can i clean it with 100% alcohol etc ?
[19:46] <G00053> jrib: expected
[19:46] <claviusmond> jrib, I want it to, in every line that starts with 1    (1 and four spaces) to transform every word to Standard Capitalization (NOT THIS, not this, But This), I then add the path to the file and the output file
[19:46] <wols> blauefuesse: ##hardware. this is not ubuntu related
[19:46] <blauefuesse> wols: true
[19:46] <Loshki> G00053: also depends on what filesystem you use...
[19:46] <G00053> ext4
[19:46] <claviusmond> jrdnyquist, it says, my terminal, sed: -e expression #1, char 35: Unmatched ( or \(
[19:47] <Pici> claviusmond: Did the command I gave you earlier not work?
[19:47] <jrib> claviusmond: escape your other parentheses
[19:47] <claviusmond> Pici, hi there again, no it didnt, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=4a1d98fb79052b19d1f4a7fd269cbb88&p=11115400&posted=1#post11115400, read the last post
[19:47] <Loshki> blauefuesse: ot: but if you can reach the lens, just clean it with alcohol on a q-tip...
[19:48] <Peyam> hi
[19:48] <Peyam> I couldnt solve the problem
[19:48] <FroyoShark> hi
[19:48] <sandy1337> hi
[19:48] <Peyam> What do I do?
[19:48] <sandy1337> problem?
[19:48] <Loshki> G00053: any system that claims to do ext4 should work, then....
[19:48] <FroyoShark> you ask a question
[19:48] <G00053> something else, this is my first hit of linux. i'm not positive I always put things in the right place. like what should i NOt put in home
[19:48] <FroyoShark> and someone probably answers it
[19:49] <Peyam> Everything stop and I cant see the iconsmeny
[19:49] <claviusmond> jrib, if I get rid of both parentheses it doesnt do anything
[19:49] <Peyam> like in the pictures
[19:49] <jrib> claviusmond: but I didn't say to get rid of both paretheses
[19:49] <sandy1337> goo this is also my first time on linux
[19:49] <iLogic> omg why does suspend/hibernate support on ubuntu sucks so bad? whenever I try to put my netbook to sleep it crashes :(
[19:49] <claviusmond> jrib, excuse the noob
[19:49] <FroyoShark> suspend and hibernate work fine for me
[19:49] <anubis_7> Hello, how to easy update the manual installed software (make install) ? somethink like "apt-get upgrade"
[19:50] <Peyam> Everything stops working
[19:50] <Peyam> I cant do anything
[19:50] <Peyam> I cant open the terminal
[19:50] <szal> anubis_7: no way
[19:50] <Peyam> nothing happens
[19:50] <Peyam> everything stands still
[19:50] <FroyoShark> anubis_7: how did you install it? with a .deb or with apt-get or a package manager?
[19:50] <Peyam> I cant see the effect
[19:50] <anubis_7> from source, with make install ...
[19:50] <Pici> !enter | Peyam
[19:50] <FroyoShark> oh. you have to update it all manually then
[19:50] <Peyam> allright
[19:51] <pr0ton> CLI for finding sum of all numbers in a file?
[19:51] <sandy1337> dpkg?
[19:51] <G00053> * off to clean up grub of old kernals , and then try to make it look like baskin robins
[19:51] <pr0ton> each line is a number
[19:51] <Loshki> anubis_7: if you installed from source, you don't get automatic upgrades from apt. You would have to re-download a later version, recompile, then reinstall...
[19:52] <jrib> claviusmond: (or maybe escape neither, but be consistent)
[19:52] <sandy1337> hi guys
[19:52] <sandy1337> can i find
[19:52] <sandy1337> irc for metasploit?
[19:52] <Peyam> First time I tried to log into Ubuntu 11.04 it said I should keep the classic theme. How do I solve this problem? I realy want it as it is on pictures on ubuntu 11.04
[19:52] <Pici> !alis | sandy1337
[19:53] <FroyoShark> Peyam: if you are using a graphics card you have to install the drivers for it
[19:53] <Peyam> I use hp 2133
[19:53] <oCean> pr0ton: all in 1 column? all in first column?
[19:53] <Peyam> a netbook
[19:53] <claviusmond> the noob is going to have to ask jrib what does he mean with escape, to add an opening parentheses right after sed and close it at the end of the line?
[19:53] <Loshki> sandy1337: /join #metasploit...
[19:53] <pr0ton> oCean, yeah
[19:53] <Peyam> FroyoShark:  I use hp 2133 a netbook
[19:53] <oCean> pr0ton: cat file | awk '{ SUM += $1} END { print SUM }'
[19:54] <FroyoShark> Peyam: if it doesn't work you can try installing the unity 2d
[19:54] <FroyoShark> Peyam: and when you log in select unity 2d instead of ubuntu classic
[19:54] <JustSighDudes> coz_: Are you using USB or network?
[19:54] <jrib> claviusmond: you probably want to just enclose your sed expression in single quotes ('') and always use '(' instead of '\(' and ')' instead of '\)' unless you want to match an actual parentheses.  At the moment, you have a '\(' and a ')'
[19:55] <coz_> JustSighDudes,  sorry,, for what again?
[19:55] <Peyam> FroyoShark:  it says 	VIA Chrome 9
[19:55] <Peyam> Up to 256 MB of shared system memory for Windows with 2 GB of system memory
[19:55] <Peyam> Up to 128 MB of shared system memory for Windows with 1 GB of system memory
[19:55] <Peyam> Up to 64 MB of shared system memory for Linux
[19:55] <coz_> JustSighDudes,  oh I have usb cam here
[19:55] <FroyoShark> Peyam: try in a terminal sudo apt-get install unity-2d
[19:55] <Peyam> FroyoShark:  Would help me out? Im new with ubuntu
[19:55] <Pici> pr0ton: or: z=0;for i in $(cut -d" " -f1 text); do z=$(( z + i )); echo $z;
[19:56] <Pici> pr0ton: or: z=0;for i in $(cat textfile); do z=$(( z + i )); echo $z;
[19:56] <coz_> JustSighDudes,  not sure about motions capabilites with networked cams though,, that would definilty be zoneminder
[19:56] <claviusmond> thanks jrib
[19:56] <jrib> claviusmond: try this in a terminal, you have some spacing issues: sed -r 's/(^.| .)/\U&/g' <<< "foo bar"
[19:56] <JustSighDudes> coz_: It looks like it should work. I can't get it to find my camera though. Something in the config probably.
[19:57] <Peyam> FroyoShark:  Wrong code
[19:57] <coz_> JustSighDudes,  that could be,, I havent read too deeply about motion's config yet  but simple motion detecting security out of the box, it works remarkabley well
[19:57] <claviusmond> jrib, dont I need the path to the file?
[19:57] <froq> I am running duel screen set up in ubuntu 11.04, with main monitor on right, secondary monitor on left, is it possible for me to move the unity bar to the far right (secondary monitor) or to the left of the primary monitor?
[19:57] <Peyam> FroyoShark:  Would you mind write it again
[19:57] <FroyoShark> Peyam: sudo apt-get install unity-2d
[19:57] <jrib> claviusmond: in this example, sed will just operate on "foo bar" (it's just an example for you)
[19:58] <Peyam> E: Encountered a section with no Package: head
[19:58] <claviusmond> Foo Bar appeared on screen
[19:58] <jrib> claviusmond: that's what you want it to do?
[19:58] <guntbert> Peyam: you can tell your client to ignore the join/quit messages, so the channel will be much slower for you :)
[19:59] <anubis_7_> i haven't installed it yet, my goal is to install curl with cares support. It seems that this configuration (curl with c-ares support) is not in any apt package and needs to install from source with "./configure -cares". So, what is the best way to install and update curl+cares ? Its possible to compile using apt ? or using a -configure ?
[19:59] <claviusmond> no, I have to Standard Capitalize every word in every line that starts with 1     (one and four spaces)
[19:59] <jrib> claviusmond: right, so add the beginning part that filters for lines that start with 1 and four spaces
[19:59] <iLogic> Anyone has a clue why putting ubuntu 11.04 to sleep causes my netbook to freeze and leaves the caps look light blinking?
[20:00] <zara-s> iLogic: kernel panic
[20:00] <iLogic> zara-s: anyway to make it work?
[20:00] <Peyam> FroyoShark: What Can I do? How Do I install it?
[20:01] <FroyoShark> Peyam: try going into software manager and search for unity 2d
[20:01] <zara-s> iLogic: well it varies, depending on whether or not your netbook has a good acpi table and whether or not you have to boot the kernel with any special acpi fixes
[20:02] <zara-s> iLogic: what netbook are you using it on anyway if you don't mind me asking?
[20:02] <iLogic> zara-s: hp mini 110-3130br
[20:02] <jrib> claviusmond: also, sed -r 's/(\w*)/\u&/g' seems easier to comprehend
[20:03] <iLogic> zara-s: it's current model, should work just fine right?
[20:03] <sandy1337> hello guys i want to install java download on my linux os
[20:03] <wols> iLogic: because it's a current model it usually doesn't work fine
[20:04] <wols> sandy1337: then do it, no one prevents you
[20:04] <fanjunkie9000> sandy1337: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[20:04] <asteve> Loshki: i can't use a gui; this is a headless server
[20:04] <fanjunkie9000> sandy1337: in the command line
[20:04] <sandy1337> i downnloaded jre-linux.bin
[20:04] <asher^> hi. can anyone tell me how to accurately judge my memory usage? depending on where i look i get very different results
[20:04] <szal> !java | sandy1337
[20:04] <sandy1337> now how to install this .bin file?
[20:04] <claviusmond> jrib, sed '/^1    .-r 's/(^.| .)/\U&/g' /home/dexter/Compiled/FlightGear/install/fgfs/fgdata/Airports/apt.dat > newfile2 , what am I doing wrong?
[20:04] <fanjunkie9000> sandy1337: Use the Ubuntu repositories, it's much easier
[20:04] <pr0ton> so when i do command > f.txt
[20:04] <jrib> claviusmond: "sed -r" not "sed" and then -r somewhere later
[20:04] <pr0ton> i direct the stdout to f.txt
[20:05] <pr0ton> how to direct, stderr to f.txt ?
[20:05] <zara-s> iLogic: have you already tried a combination of booting the kernel with acpi_sleep=s3bios or acpi_sleep=s3mode, or a combination of the two?
[20:05] <iLogic> actually.. it worked just fine at first.. then I installed an app called caffeine and it started to happen.. I tried uninstalling it, did a fresh install of the OS and nothing works
[20:05] <jrib> pr0ton: 2>
[20:05] <italoxp> asher^: type top in the terminal, in the mem line it will give you the total, used and free.
[20:05] <wols> pr0ton: 2>
[20:05] <iLogic> zara-s: which file is that?
[20:05] <italoxp> asher^: the numbers are in bytes, so you have to divide by 1024 twice
[20:05] <new2net> Are there any debuggers like Olly for Ubuntu? I'd prefer GUI, being able to look through the full assembled program and make small changes, look through the stack and data and see what's in the registers, as well as obviously making breakpoints and going through instruction by instruction.
[20:05] <fanjunkie9000> szal: The link in the ubottu page for Java doesn't work... you can't have spaces in anchor links
[20:05] <wols> sandy1337: what bin file from where?
[20:06] <pr0ton> wols, jrib thanks
[20:06] <asher^> italoxp??
[20:06]  * jrib is having trouble finding documentation for ERE use of \U and \u
[20:06] <zara-s> iLogic: make that s3_bios and s3_mode, you append those to the kernel line in your grub config
[20:06] <Pici> fanjunkie9000: I'll take a look
[20:06] <szal> fanjunkie9000: don't tell that to me, I didn't write the factoid or any of the pages linked ther
[20:06] <szal> e
[20:06] <italoxp> asher^: you want to see your memory usage, right?
[20:06] <Loshki> asteve: it can all be done with cli commands e.g. wget to download the package, dpkg -i to install...

[20:12] <anubis_7_> Hello, what is the best way for install software that needs special configuration when compiling from source (curl with cares support) ? The package is in apt-get (curl without cares support) . My question is for a easy way to mantain this software updated to the lastest version.
[20:13] <fanjunkie9000> anubis_7_: First look for a ppa, if the developer supplies one. If not, I'd personally compile and place into /opt directory
[20:13] <trism> wolter: if you are using gdm, see: http://library.gnome.org/admin/gdm/2.32/configuration.html.en#daemonconfig specifically the Greeter Options section
[20:13] <zara-s> iLogic: shoul be in /etc/default/grub
[20:13] <wols> anubis_7_: there is no easy way. if you need it on a one off basis, compile it and link it to your program statically
[20:15] <anubis_7_> wols: statically ? this is worse to mantain it updated !
[20:15] <anubis_7_> fanjunkie9000: why /opt ?
[20:15] <jrib> anubis_7_: personally, I do the following: grab the existing source package, modify it to my needs, maintain it in a ppa
[20:16] <fanjunkie9000> anubis_7_: /opt is meant for optional software packages in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard
[20:16] <sandy1337> ls

[20:32] <Pici> Osmodivs: Because 'rename' is for mass renaming things. You should use 'mv' for what you're doing.

[21:08] <Scaatis> hello
[21:08] <goddard> Pici: ubuntu uses a lot of debian packages correct
[21:09] <Pici> goddard: yes, we sync from debian stable/unstable normally.
[21:09] <Scaatis> in my ~/.xsession-errors file, the line (nautilus:1647): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_object: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_OBJECT (value)' failed constantly gets added
[21:09] <goddard> Pici: they say it is about stability but often times it is just because a lack of support and upgrades to those packages
[21:09] <Troy^> i cant seem to get youtube videos to display in chromium... whats the best way to get it to do so, i would assume its some sort of flash problem?
[21:09] <ThinkT510> Pici: thanks, i'm aware of that factoid, i was just wondering if there was a special reason that python2 is the default (maybe like something in the default install specifically requires 2)
[21:09] <Scaatis> previously, this increased the size of that file to almost 40GB
[21:09] <goddard> Pici: Empathy 2.34 is unstable and 3 is stable it just doesn't fit into Unity yet
[21:10] <zteam> Anybody here know a decent chess program for linux?
[21:10] <trism> ThinkT510: because it is a huge amount of work to port everything to python 3, see for instance: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-o-python-versions
[21:10] <Pici> ThinkT510: Because scripts designed for python2 are not usable in python3.  It is a big change to convert and test all of them.
[21:10] <scott___> Is there any way to repair the package catalog for the ubuntu software package manually?
[21:10] <goddard> Pici: i dont know my opinion i think if we had more support it would be faster
[21:11] <zteam> scott___, : yes it is
[21:11] <ThinkT510> Pici: ahh, so it is because of dependancies, thanks
[21:11] <zteam> but have you tried using sudo apt-get install -f
[21:11] <ThinkT510> trism: thanks for the link
[21:11] <Scaatis> any help?
[21:11] <scott___> zteam - no, I haven't.  Will that command repair the software center package catalog?
[21:12] <Pici> goddard: I'm not sure what you mean by 'support', but keep in mind that Ubuntu is not a rolling release distro. If thats what you want, then there are other options out there.
[21:12] <zteam> Scott: but have you tried using sudo apt-get install -f
[21:12] <federico> hi guys
[21:12] <zteam> scott___, : it will attempt to solve any dependy-problems you might have
[21:12] <scott___> zteam: Sweet, I'll give that a try now
[21:13] <Tbruff13> can someone tell me how to add a battery icon to ubuntu 11.04
[21:13] <federico> you know if is possible recive  the date only from a single IP?
[21:13] <Scaatis> so I got that error approximately 600 times in the last 10 minutes
[21:13] <goddard> Pici: im saying the excuse of stability is only a lack of support.  It isn't a planned reasoning it is because for those specific technologies Ubuntu needs more support in testing and development
[21:13] <Eighteens> I thought i had this fixed, "the sound that is" but after reboot my sound is back to being GARBLED, sound played fine, until i move volume up, then it freezes computer, and sounds like a blown speaker, this sure is frustrating... so instead of asking how to fix this, i am asking how to DELETE all sound modules, anything to do with sound, i want it gone, if it doesn't work right, why have it?
[21:14] <federico> you know if is possible recive  the date only from a single IP?

[21:16] <androidcrazy> thanks
[21:16] <goddard> Pici: have you use Wireshark recently?
[21:16] <Scaatis> windows is much better than linux because it doesn't create 40 GB errolog files repeating the same message
[21:16] <zteam> scott___, okey, I have no idea, what that means, but you try with sudo apt-get clean
[21:16] <jerware> folks.
[21:16] <jerware> I ssh  into a box, how can I tell if there's a monitor plugged in?  For both HDMI and DVI.
[21:16] <zteam> scott___, and then sudo apt-get autoclean
[21:16] <scott___> cool, will try now
[21:17] <zteam> scott___, this clears apt-cache

[21:18] <zteam> Technicus, Have you tried to install it with sudo aptitude install <package> ?
[21:18] <federico> somebody can link me a guide for set the date only for one ip?
[21:18] <scott___> zteam: It looks like it let me get a little further - I did clean and autoclean, then did install -f and it grabbed a couple of packages before returning the same error as before
[21:18] <goddard> It would be cool just just say forget backwards compatability and start from scratch
[21:18] <scott___> I'll try doing it again to see if it gets any further
[21:19] <Morkel> I have since a few days this error "locale.Error: unsupported locale setting" on some ubuntu systems. What does this mean?
[21:19] <zteam> scott___,  otherwise try with sudo aptitude install  -f
[21:19] <FoxCantrell_> I installed ubuntu 11.04 as dual boot to my win7. Windows has partioned off my hdd as C: and D: .. D being the larger one. I had ubuntu install to the D partition, but now i cant get into ubuntu, it boots into win 7.. how to fix?
[21:19] <androidcrazy> I downloaded the driver from NVIDIA page and installed it, but when I restart the computer, I get only white display
[21:20] <androidcrazy> I had to reinstall ubuntu
[21:20] <zteam> scott___,  aptitude is superior to apt
[21:20] <pduan> hi
[21:20] <androidcrazy> anyone knows what can I do?
[21:20] <pduan> can someone help me remove a screwed up java install?
[21:21] <scott___> zteam: It looks like I don't have aptitude
[21:21] <goddard> i was looking at a lot of my drivers and some are 32 bit
[21:21] <goddard> so i have a 64 bit operating system but half the drivers are 32 how do they work with that
[21:21] <zteam> Anybody here knows a decent chessboard for Linux, I want something which let me setup different positions, with many levels and so on, I really like pychess but it didn't have that feature
[21:21] <tjiggi_fo> androidcrazy, you don't need to download. System >> Admin >> Hardware Drivers will do it for you safely
[21:22] <androidcrazy> yeah, I did that, and it downloaded them, restarted, but the dialog box says the same that the driver is activated but not in use
[21:22] <FroyoShark> i can't install or uninstall anything with apt-get
[21:22] <FoxCantrell_> I installed ubuntu 11.04 as dual boot to my win7. Windows has partioned off my hdd as C: and D: .. D being the larger one. I had ubuntu install to the D partition, but now i cant get into ubuntu, it boots into win 7.. how to fix?
[21:22] <FroyoShark> i just get a bunch of error messages
[21:22] <zteam> scott___,  well, unfournetly Canoical has removed it from 10.10 by some idiotic reasons
[21:23] <FroyoShark> http://pastebin.com/05QHQx9J
[21:23] <androidcrazy> and I dont get the option for the special effects in preference
[21:23] <pduan> can someone help me fix a screwed up java install?
[21:23] <scott___> zteam: do you know any other way to fix the package catalog?
[21:23] <zteam> scott___, , if I were you i tried google on that file
[21:24] <joaolukas> There's someone here from Brazil?
[21:24] <ThinkT510> !fixapt | scott___
[21:24] <zteam> scott___,  try that
[21:24] <tjiggi_fo> androidcrazy, do you get a choice of 3 drivers?
[21:25] <androidcrazy> I get choice of two drivers
[21:25] <scott___> ubotto - I did that and it just returned to the command prompt after password.  Is that the desired result?
[21:25] <joaolukas> Alguém aqui é do Brasil?
[21:26] <tjiggi_fo> androidcrazy, 96 and 173?
[21:26] <ThinkT510> !br | joaolukas
[21:26] <androidcrazy> nvidia accelerated graphics driver (version 173) and nvidia accelerated graphics driver (version current) [recommended]
[21:26] <zteam> scott___,  Ubottu is just a BOT, so it can't answere that question, but yes it looks normal to me, try with sudo apt-get update now
[21:26] <joaolukas> Thank's ubottu
[21:26] <scott___> Think510 - got the message: bash: !fixapt: event not found
[21:27] <lindenle> So my X locks up everytime I use anything that ix caleed x<object>, i.e. xterm , xdiff etc etc
[21:27] <tjiggi_fo> androidcrazy, click on the "version current" one and at bottom right click "Activate"
[21:27] <lindenle> this is driving me nuts and i would like to get away from nouveau and install the nVidia driver
[21:27] <ThinkT510> scott___: sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:27] <lindenle> and p.s. the additional drivers install is not working
[21:28] <zteam> scott___, !fixapt is not a linus command it's a command to ubottu
[21:28] <lindenle> i get this driver is activated but not currently in use
[21:28] <zteam> :)
[21:28] <joaolukas> !br
[21:28] <androidcrazy> I can activate any of the two, and restart the computer, but when I comeback it will say driver activated but not currently in use
[21:28] <androidcrazy> is the one I have activated
[21:28] <mads> < /nick MadsRC >
[21:28] <androidcrazy> it says it is activated but not currently in use
[21:28] <FoxCantrell_> I installed ubuntu 11.04 as dual boot to my win7. Windows has partioned off my hdd as C: and D: .. D being the larger one. I had ubuntu install to the D partition, but now i cant get into ubuntu, it boots into win 7.. how to fix to get back into ubuntu? i cant choose either one
[21:29] <magical_walrus> Hey, I just followed the instructions here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook/TripleBoot) for a triple-boot MacOS/Ubuntu/WinXP system, but after Ubuntu finishes installing, Ubuntu won't boot.
[21:29] <tjiggi_fo> androidbruce, then I'm sorry, but I don't have the knowhow to help you
[21:29] <scott___> Think510 : that command doesn't seem to help
[21:29] <zteam> !fixapt
[21:29] <pduan> what is
[21:29] <scott___> Think510: I did that, then apt-get update, still no change
[21:29] <tjiggi_fo> androidcrazy, , then I'm sorry, but I don't have the knowhow to help you
[21:29] <joaolukas> magical_walrus: try to reebot, and go to the setup. Close the setup and press F8 or Del to see the boot options
[21:30] <extraclassic> FoxCantrell_: did you install windows after ubuntu
[21:30] <pduan> what is linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic and linux-headers-2.6.38-8
[21:30] <Explodingpiglets> I am having a problem. Some of my windows seem to be missing menus or borders
[21:30] <pduan> and can i remove them? they were a part of the java install i believe
[21:30] <FoxCantrell_> extraclassic, no i just had factory restored win7 then when that was setup again, i installed ubuntu
[21:30] <Explodingpiglets> For example, my xchat window does not have the bar at the top that has the minimize/ maximize/ close buttons
[21:30] <magical_walrus> joaolukas, ok, but are you aware that I'm having this problem on a Macbook, not a regular windows machine? I don't have access to a BIOS setup screen
[21:30] <zteam> scott___, paste that error from apt again will you?
[21:31] <joaolukas> Explodingpiglets: Maybe is cause your theme is not configured?
[21:31] <scott___> dpkg: error: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 0:
[21:31] <Explodingpiglets> joaolukas, it was working earlier.
[21:31] <scott___> newline in field name `../../../../share/pyshared/computerjanitor/file_cruft_tests.py'
[21:31] <Explodingpiglets> It just disappeared.
[21:31] <extraclassic> FoxCantrell_: not sure then...installing ubuntu last usually installs grub and it'll detect everything
[21:31] <scott___> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[21:32] <joaolukas> magical_walrus: Oh, sorry, I did'nt saw this. I never touched in a macbook hehehehehe
[21:32] <Morkel> I have since a few days this error "locale.Error: unsupported locale setting" on some ubuntu systems. What does this mean?
[21:32] <Explodingpiglets> What's odd is that my google chrome still has the bar
[21:32] <magical_walrus> joaolukas, thats fine
[21:32] <scott___> In the gui, it just says "Items cannot be installed or removed until the package catalog is repaired"
[21:32] <zteam> scott___,  it seems to me that file is corrupted or something
[21:32] <FoxCantrell_> extraclassic, can it be that the Main os for win7 is on the C partition and ubuntu partioned itself off of the D partion?
[21:33] <zteam> scott try to rename it
[21:33] <scott___> zteam: trying now
[21:33] <zteam> scott___,  but DON't delete it
[21:33] <magical_walrus> joaolukas, I'm guessing my problem has something to do with the fact that the instructions require you to install GRUB to the boot sector of the partition Ubuntu is going on, instead of MBR. Do you know if this could be causing the problem?
[21:34] <AnniXa> hey, may i ask a question?
[21:34] <extraclassic> FoxCantrell_: i don't know..is your computer using the win7 bootloader
[21:35] <joaolukas> Perhaps it can be the reason, but i prefer don't say nothing, I don't know the working of a macbook
[21:35] <magical_walrus> joaolukas, alright, thanks
[21:35] <naptastic> I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10; I set my account to log in automatically, and did not provide a password for the default keyring. Now my wifi doesn't connect on startup. How do I fix it?
[21:35] <zteam> scott___,  then you can try to run sudo apt-get update
[21:35] <naptastic> ah, nevermind, I found it.
[21:35] <naptastic> Wow, I'm apparently a dummy ;-)
[21:35] <magical_walrus> can anyone else provide assistance with ubuntu on a macbook?
[21:35] <scott___> zteam: I need root access to change that file
[21:36] <zteam> and hopefully it create a new file for you, but I doubt it will work
[21:36] <FoxCantrell_> extraclassic, if you mean try pressing F5 or such to select, then yeah.. but ubuntu still not there.. ive not seen the GRUB screen yet
[21:36] <scott___> on ubuntu, don't I normally have root access?
[21:36] <zteam> scott___,  of course not
[21:36] <scott___> I didn't set any password for root on install
[21:36] <scott___> How do I log in as root?
[21:36] <AnniXa> i just ask :P i would like to play minecraft on ubuntu, but its not running, i heard i need to install the java from sun. how do install this? :O
[21:37] <extraclassic> FoxCantrell_: i'm not familiar enough with what you're describing to help you
[21:37] <zteam> scott___,  you should use sudo to get root access, the password is the same as your user account password
[21:37] <joaolukas> naptastic: If you're using gnome, you can click the wifi icon, and go to "edit connections", and them go to the session Wirelless
[21:37] <scott___> zteam - Ooh, I was trying to rename it through the gui.  I should use the command line then?
[21:37] <magical_walrus> AnniXa, http://www.java.com/en/download/
[21:37] <zteam> scott___,  so you didn't try with sudo apt-get install -f otherwise try that FIRST
[21:38] <FoxCantrell_> extraclassic, perhaps try to install to the Main partion to see if it loads the grub correctly that way? that was my next action but i wanted to be sure first
[21:39] <scott___> zteam - Yes, I was in the terminal for all the previous
[21:39] <zteam> scott___,  if you did only do apt-get install -f without sudo then it explains why it failed
[21:39] <AnniXa> ty  magical_walrus :)
[21:39] <magical_walrus> AnniXa, no problem
[21:39] <scott___> zteam - no, I used sudo before
[21:39] <magical_walrus> Is it absolutely necessary to have a bootloader (grub or lilo)? I am asking this because I'm trying to install ubuntu on my Macbook, but it fails to boot if I select the ubuntu partition.
[21:40] <zteam> okey, well, try to rename the file with sudo then
[21:40] <extraclassic> FoxCantrell: if windows is on sda1 then install ubuntu to sda2 and it should install a bootloader and detect itself and windows
[21:40] <zteam> scott___,  okey, well, try to rename the file with sudo then
[21:40] <magical_walrus> I followed the instructions here: (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook/TripleBoot) and ubuntu has worked before on this machine, I just dont remember how It worked as it was years ago
[21:41] <Koterpillar> How do I troubleshoot (presumably) Avahi? I have Ubuntu and Debian machines in one subnet, they stopped resolving "hostname.local".
[21:41] <AnniXa> sorry for me bugging again, i downloaded it, but i dont know how to run the installernow :)
[21:41] <AnniXa> its a .bin file
[21:42] <magical_walrus> AnniXa, I believe there are instructions on how to run the installer on the download page
[21:42] <AnniXa> okay you are right,let me check that
[21:42] <zteam> scott___,  you know how to rename a file using the terminal?
[21:42] <koshieFinalReliz> Hi
[21:42] <Eighteens> just as i was about to rm -rf / "because of my non working sound in ubuntu" i decided to run vlc media player as root, and all songs play fine, however if i run vlc media player as me all i hear is garble, garble, boom crack pop hiss... "I don't usually run apps as root, but i am desperate to fix my horrible sound problem, however as root, all sound is good. What could be the issue here
[21:42] <Kiwini> AnniXa, did you check the Ubuntu Software Centre for Java?
[21:43] <asteve> how do i create a Release file for my repo?
[21:43] <AnniXa> yes kiwini, but there is onle the openjdk java thingy
[21:44] <koshieFinalReliz> That is a good idea to install KDE 4.7 on Lucid Lynx ? In the backport it's the 4.4.5. I need to compile it ? I don't found a binary package.
[21:44] <scott___> zteam - just figured it out I think : sudo mv available available.bak
[21:44] <mircolillo> !list
[21:44] <DANYAL> How To Change File Format In LInux/ubuntu
[21:44] <scott___> then did sudo apt-get install -f but it didn't fix it
[21:44] <magical_walrus> AnniXa, As far as I know, you want the one from Sun, not openjdk for Minecraft
[21:45] <AnniXa> yes, i try now the install howto on the java sun site
[21:45] <Koterpillar> DANYAL, what format do you have and what format do you need?
[21:45] <zteam> scott___,  yes that's good know try with sudo apt-get update
[21:45] <DANYAL> Koterpillar i have txt format i want in which user cant read orignal words
[21:46] <DANYAL> and unconvertable to old format
[21:46] <Um_cara_Qualquer> does anyone uses a pen drive to play on Wii?
[21:46] <magical_walrus> AnniXa, click the "Instructions" link to the right of the installer you downloaded (probably the "Linux RPM" or "Linux (self-extracting)" one)
[21:46] <Koterpillar> DANYAL, delete the file. You won't be able to read it
[21:46] <zteam> DANYAL, you only need to open the textfile with gedit and use save as and then choose windows encoding
[21:46] <Koterpillar> DANYAL, also try file-roller to create a password protected archive
[21:47] <DANYAL> No I Need Like that convert abc to ^?ELF^A^A^A^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^B^@^C^@^A^@^@^@
[21:47] <DANYAL> This format
[21:48] <DANYAL> i think this is mac format
[21:48] <Koterpillar> The one you described second is executable. You cannot "convert" text to executable file meaningfully.
[21:48] <zteam> DANYAL, are you sure this is a file is a text file
[21:49] <_6502_> Hello... is there a command to exit the screen saver? I'm trying to get a screenshot of a remote computer with "import" but I just get a black image...
[21:49] <zteam> DANYAL,  try to open the terminal and write file then drag and drop the textfile to the terminal and press enter, then Ubuntu should tell you what file type it is
[21:50] <Koterpillar> _6502_, killall gnome-screensaver
[21:50] <scott___> zteam: that didn't replace it either, but I notice in the dpkg directory there is another file called available-old.  Is it possible when I was trying to do the initial update through the Software Center that it saved this as the backup copy?
[21:50] <Jon_N|A> Hi there! How can a figure out what are my HDD's partitions attributes in hd(x.x) format? Is there a software for it?
[21:50] <zteam> scott___,  maybe try to replace it, but be sure to keep the other file too
[21:51] <AKINATON> Ai meus Amigos do Ubuntu, quem ainda não tiver convite do Google+ e so me pedir q envio por email...
[21:51] <AKINATON> Ha e claro... so para os amigos
[21:53] <Macha> Does anyone know what raid-am is and why it might be running on port 2013 of my 10.04 LTS VPS? Google just shows up "commonly used ports" lists. It isn't anything I've deliberately installed.
[21:53] <intrader_> Anyone, I was given an iPod as a present and find that there is little support in ubuntu for it. I see http://www.junauza.com/2008/09/5-great-itunes-replacements-for.html, and have tried Rythmbox and don't see the ipod. What do you all recommend.
[21:53] <scott___> zteam: That fixed my package catalog - Thanks a MILLION for your guidance
[21:53] <Macha> What iPod? iPod Touch or a different one?
[21:54] <zteam> scott___,  your welcome
[21:54] <zteam> scott___,  :-)
[21:54] <scott___> zteam: but I still need to install these codecs, and it looks like doing it through software center is going to give me problems.  The documentation says adding the medibuntu repo will make it easier - how do I do this?
[21:54] <intrader_> Macha, iPod touch
[21:55] <_6502_> koterpillar: thaks, worked.
[21:56] <Macha> intrader_:  Unless anything has changed in the last 6 months then, you need iTunes. Try running iTunes in wine.What version of iOS is on it?
[21:56] <szal> !pt | AKINATON
[21:56] <reisi> anyone running latest 11.04 on x86 or amd64? could you throw me the md5sum of /lib/i386-linux-gnu/security/pam_unix.so ?
[21:57] <brightspark> Can anyone explain how to mute the volume (10.10)?
[21:57] <zteam> scott___,  well I don't know which codecs you are talking about, but if you mean, codecs to play mp3-files, DivX and wmv and so on, then you can just use
[21:57] <brightspark> The icon by the clock says its muted but it isn't.
[21:57] <zteam> scott___,  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[21:57] <szal> reisi: doesn't exist here (Natty x86_64)
[21:58] <joeb> I'm having an issue in 11.04 with two video cards and three monitors where attempting to startup compiz and it just chews up resources and sits there.
[21:58] <zteam> scott___,  be sure to check that all of your soures is turned on first
[21:58] <intrader_> Macha, i have not the vaguest idea what IOS is running. Just got the thing. So you are saying that iTunes is your recommended way?
[21:58] <scott___> zteam: it's a codec package required by openshot ( a video editor), but I think for now I'll export it to the video format that's available and then just convert it later.  Thanks again for your help!
[21:59] <Jef91> If I add a PPA to an Ubuntu lucid system, is there a way I can tell me system to pull packages from the maverick part of that ppa?
[21:59] <zteam> and what happens if you use try sudo apt-get install openshot?
[21:59] <koshieFinalReliz> That is a good idea to install KDE 4.7 on Lucid Lynx ? In the backport it's the 4.4.5. I need to compile it ? I don't found a binary package.
[21:59] <reisi> szal: sorry, it's /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/security/pam_unix.so on amd64
[22:00] <brightspark> Can anyone explain how to mute the volume (Maverick 10.10)?  The tray icon shows mute but there is still sound.
[22:01] <zteam> scott___,  otherwise to install a new repository you can use sudo add-apt-repository ppa:repositoryname
[22:01] <brightspark> Matter of fact the volume control has no effect at all as far as I can see.
[22:01] <reisi> brightspark: sorry, could be that no one anymore uses 10.10; try to see if there are multiple muteable devices?
[22:01] <Macha> intrader_: It's the only way to use the later iOSes. I think something had a (buggy) plugin that worked with iOS 2 devices a while back, but I can't remember what it was. Not really a reccomendation, as I hate iTunes, but there isn't much choice here.
[22:01] <zteam> scott___,  but this only works for repositories on launcpad
[22:01] <szal> reisi: 034eba261867a9ca7322e6060a78513b  /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/security/pam_unix.so
[22:02] <reisi> szal: thanks!
[22:02] <intrader_> Macha, is it possible to run ios on a vm?
[22:03] <reisi> szal: at least we have the same version... i've got some major dpkg info/base-files.list corruption, got me checking for debsums, which seem to be off on both systems
[22:03] <brightspark> reisi, support is supposed to continue until april though.  Control within an app works (ie rhythmbox) but not all programs have a mute function at that level.
[22:03] <fbsd> * Stopping automatic crash report generation                            [fail]
[22:03] <fbsd> how i can resolve that?
[22:04] <Macha> intrader_: iTunes in Virtualbox _should_ work, I think, but never tried it.
[22:05] <intrader_> Macha, Lion on virtualbox? - I would need to buy Lion.
[22:05] <reisi> brightspark: support != people using it; i'm not sure if there's a single control you should be using; did you check the mixer app if there were multiple audio devices?
[22:06] <szal> reisi: some ppl apparently stick to Maverick because they don't want Unity ;)
[22:07] <Macha> intrader_: Windows on VirtualBox
[22:07] <brightspark> reisi, mixer app being the "sound preferences" option you get by clicking the tray icon?
[22:07] <reisi> szal: i've got a secret ... i'm actually a kubuntu user.. i stumbled here as i usually hang on #ubuntu-server
[22:08] <szal> reisi: same here (Kubuntu, not -server ;))
[22:08] <reisi> szal: hehe
[22:08]  * szal is a long-time KDE user so choosing Kubuntu over Ubuntu was a no-brainer
[22:08] <reisi> brightspark: hmm sorry, as i don't have ubuntu on my any of my systems, i cannot help you more
[22:09] <G00053> so i did an install of 11.04 next to 10.04 and it's telling my file system root only has ~50mb left . also it didn't see my 10.04 account so i had to mount my home partition manually
[22:09] <intrader_> Macha, I just cheked - Lion will not run on virtualbox. So the alternative is Windows (which I have on the laptop) and iTunes. I hate to have to boot windows, though
[22:09] <brightspark> Okay, I have two options.  Changing from "Simultaneous output to Internal Audio Analog Stereo" to "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" fixes the problem.
[22:09] <Macha> intrader_: You missed my last message. Windows on Virtualbox works too if you don't want to reboot.
[22:10] <Spikestuff> I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 from a Live CD, and now it keeps prompting me if I want to run the application "Install RELEASE" even though I have already installed all the updates through the Update Manager, is my version not updated all the way, or is this a bug that just won't go away?
[22:10] <brightspark> Can someone explain what these options mean?
[22:11] <intrader_> Macha, install windows on virtualbox? Unfortunately the THinkpad does provide CD for windows, it is all in a partition.
[22:11] <lindenle> Hi all I am using the proprietary drivers from nVidia and I would like a way to automatically go back to just the laptop screen when i eject from the docking station
[22:12] <lindenle> anyone have a good way of handling this?
[22:12] <jrib> lindenle: maybe with disper
[22:12] <reisi> brightspark: well the first is not a real device, the latter is a real device
[22:13] <reisi> brightspark: that is, if you mute the latter, you will implicitly mute the first; for long time there has been a big issue on linux "desktop field" about good/convinient/performant sound solution, and you are witnessing one incarnation of that
[22:13] <lindenle> also my machine hangs on boot with 2.6.38-10 and 2.6.38-11
[22:13] <lindenle> dell latitude laptop
[22:14] <intrader_> Macha, thanks, I will try wine for now.
[22:14] <reisi> brightspark: some (newer) apps use the first one, some older, misconfigured, miscompliled or too young applications use straight the device
[22:14] <brightspark> reisi, thanks!  Any other caveats I should watch out for?
[22:15] <reisi> brightspark: i guess there are endless amounts of such leaking abstractions; but if you keep this example in mind, you'll eventually find a way to solve the rest
[22:16] <brightspark> reisi, thanks again for your help.

[22:34] <MrBIOS-seamicro> hi there, I created /etc/modprobe.d/e1000.conf and placed "alias eth0 e1000" as well as "options eth0 InterruptThrottleRate=0" there, is there any way to *verify* that those kernel options were passed to the module when it got loaded?
[22:35] <simo_> WallyJ2K, from terminal type:  lspci | grep -i vga
[22:35] <csdserver> OK, this is how my partition is set up : http://tinyurl.com/3k4b4rg    The OS I need to get rid of is on the primary bootable partition.   how much of the /dev/sda1 partition should I keep in front?   basically i want to extend /dev/sda6 to use up as much of the sda1 space as possible without fudging my bootloading
[22:37] <WallyJ2K> ok
[22:37] <WallyJ2K> that worked
[22:37] <WallyJ2K> shows my VGA compatible controller
[22:37] <WallyJ2K> VGA is in red
[22:37] <WallyJ2K> so maybe my video card isn't the problem when booting
[22:38] <Spikestuff> What is the location of my CD drive?
[22:38] <Spikestuff> So I can mount an installation CD.
[22:38] <caiges> anyone using pypy with couchdbkit?
[22:38] <WallyJ2K> I am in recovery mode, so I am trying to check everything
[22:40] <WallyJ2K> I'm thinking about installing all updates from Update Manager and then rebooting to see if that gets rid of my problem
[22:43] <marriedman624> Ok, I need some help.......I was here earlier about not having my username on sudoers
[22:43] <marriedman624> I have a LiveCD, what do I need to do so I can edit the sudoers file
[22:46] <armygunner> hey yall, anyone got a second to answer a couple ubuntu questions?
[22:48] <WallyJ2K> armygunner... ask your question, people will field it as they can
[22:52] <goddard> best av quick go
[22:52] <goddard> ?
[22:52] <IT> av for linux?
[22:52] <armygunner> well i just ordered a new asus netbook and was thinking about getting rid of that windows starter OS but i was wondering if I'll have to go find all the drivers or what all the install replaces
[22:52] <IT> even though you may need one in some cases :S
[22:53] <IT> armygunner
[22:53] <IT> ubuntu detects drivers automatically
[22:53] <goddard> IT ubuntu is advance like that
[22:53] <IT> well, was automatic for me :P
[22:54] <IT> and don't worry about "the linux is complicated thing", ubuntu is great for beginners
[22:54] <armygunner> lol, nice... sorry i couldn't find a FAQ to look up the noob questions
[22:54] <IT> help.ubuntu.com
[22:54] <goddard> armygunner: thats what irc is for
[22:54] <goddard> armygunner: noobs
[22:54] <goddard> real uber guys use cell phones
[22:54] <goddard> :D
[22:55] <armygunner> haha i would use my cell but i'm getting out of the infantry and we can't use phones in nursing school
[22:55] <Kanzu5665> so on the topic of noob questions, I just installed ubuntu via wubi today.
[22:56] <goddard> slightly offtopic but http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/
[22:56] <WallyJ2K> armygunner... a good way to try Linux is to fully install it from a CD to a USB drive and run it from the USB drive. Just boot to the USB drive when you want to use Linux and then you can boot from your HD to run Windows, without the complications of a true "dual-boot" setup
[22:56] <armygunner> got a lot of note taking to do and my 17" dell is beat to hell from afghanistan so i needed something smaller
[22:56] <Kanzu5665> How do I install applications such as Firefox from the website?
[22:56] <Kanzu5665> I get a tar.gz file or something like that
[22:56] <IT> ubuntu software center
[22:56] <IT> and firefox should be built in
[22:56] <Kanzu5665> yup, I eventually got it through that
[22:56] <Kanzu5665> I was trying to get 5.0
[22:56] <ebb> hey does anyone know how to change the channel from a fixed in the terminal trying to do the wep crack
[22:57] <ebb> ??
[22:58] <ebb> anyonee
[22:58] <IT> armygunner - i recommend going with ubuntu 10.04
[22:59] <IT> great version....
[22:59] <armygunner> IT - is that better than 11 for netbooks or something?
[23:00] <IT> well, it is the latest LTS
[23:01] <TreCoolx> Hey all I have a quick question, How do i go about auto loading a kernel module that needs to be loaded? I have to load this "sudo modprobe -r acer-wmi " each startup for wifi.
[23:03] <iLogic> wols and zara-s: I tried to boot from the usbdrive and to my surprise suspend and hibernate worked fine ... but it crashed on the hdd from the first I tried it after a clean install.. you guys think I should try to format it again?
[23:05] <militant> hmmm.  i can't find an option to disable the toaster style popups every time i get an IM in pidgin...
[23:06] <ebb> anyone know how to wep cracking please help
[23:06] <ebb> wep crracking help please
[23:07] <massmc> militant: install pidgin extras and there is an option in plugins to disable the bubbles
[23:07] <marriedman624> I have dual boot with ubuntu and windows...........having issues with sudo in ubuntu so I botted into liveCd.......how to mount my root partition?
[23:07] <marriedman624> so i can edit the sudoers file
[23:07] <cpare> Hello room
[23:08] <militant> massmc: cool thanks
[23:08] <ebb> anyone know wep cracking
[23:09] <zara-s> iLogic: I'm not so sure that a reformat and reinstall would necessary solve the problem, but _if_ you have extra time on your hands it wouldn't be a bad idea if all else doesn't work
[23:09] <cpare> Can anyone offer assistance / suggestions on where to look to clean up space on Ubuntu 11.04
[23:09] <massmc> ebb: if you have to ask about it, maybe help if you read about it
[23:09] <massmc> google works wonders
[23:09] <ebb> ive put alot of hrs alread
[23:10] <ebb> its stuck on a fixed channel
[23:10] <IT> or install backtrack.... that is actually meant for hacking
[23:10] <TreCoolx> they have a good tutorial on the aircrack-ng website
[23:10] <massmc> ebb: wep cracking is not rocket science.. google it rather than ask in here mate
[23:12] <chocolates> My iPod won't sync with ubuntu 11.04.
[23:13] <chocolates> It was working fine a few days back but not anymore.
[23:13] <marriedman624> can anyone help me mount root in live CD?
[23:14] <hasan> anyone?
[23:14] <usr13> cpare: du -sk * | sort -n  <will list by file sizes, largest last>
[23:14] <usr13> ls -lS |grep ^d   <will show directories sorted by size>
[23:15] <c|oneman> I'm installing win7, should I leave a empty paritition for ubuntu
[23:15] <c|oneman> what does ubuntu do, take over the bootloader right?
[23:15] <marriedman624> usr13: Can you help me out?
[23:15] <Vulcano> I just set up my VPN connection, how do I enable it? Ubuntu 11.04
[23:15] <usr13> marriedman624: Sure
[23:15] <cpare> thx @usr13, however I want to be sure I don't have a file full of small files either
[23:16] <marriedman624> did you see my question earlier?
[23:16] <usr13> no
[23:16] <c|oneman> Vulcano: ifconfig <nameofvpn> up     would be my complete random guess
[23:16] <usr13> but I can scroll up
[23:16] <directi_aim> The information of a file can be found by stat. Is it right that the information regarding the permission is stored in  st_ino only?
[23:16] <marriedman624> I need help mounting root in live Cd
[23:17] <directi_aim> Does not st_uid,st_mode, st_gid also contain relevant details reagarding permissions?
[23:17] <usr13> Oh ok.  fdisk -l    and look to see which is which.  (You probably know the size, right?)
[23:18] <usr13> marriedman624: you know it's not the swap partition, so that one is out.
[23:18] <marriedman624> yeah but when I do that, it doesn't do anything............when it booted I choose try ubuntu, was that correct?
[23:18] <usr13> yes
[23:18] <tjiggi_fo> marriedman624, I can't help you but maybe this will: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157250
[23:18] <willwh> hi folks - can anyone suggest a package for throttling my connection on the fly? (I want to be able to vary the amount of download capacity to test a few things)
[23:19] <usr13> marriedman624: See my pm
[23:21] <U-b-u-n-t-u> when i leave my computer idle for some time and come back to it the mouse will left click once then the mouse stops working any suggestions?
[23:21] <U-b-u-n-t-u> this didnt happen until I upgraded to 11.04
[23:23] <csdwifi> you'll have to make sure you get your mouse driver from the source U-b-u-n-t-u
[23:24] <usr13> U-b-u-n-t-u: Is it going into hybernate or sleep mode?
[23:24] <usr13> U-b-u-n-t-u: Which ever it is, quit using it.
[23:26] <Kanzu5665> so are most ubuntu users familiar with other linux distributions?
[23:26] <willwh> Kanzu5665: probably not, some of us are
[23:26] <Kanzu5665> ah
[23:26] <The-Decoy> Kanzu5665: probably a lot of the older ones.  I doubt many newcomers are.
[23:27] <willwh> The-Decoy said it best. ;)
[23:27] <U-b-u-n-t-u> usr13, I dont have a sleep mode it is just when the system is idle it will work for one left click then it dies
[23:27] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: you probably do
[23:27] <willwh> check your power options
[23:27] <willwh> it's a default, I believe
[23:27] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ok
[23:27] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ill check
[23:27] <Guest52064> Can I ask for lubuntu help here?
[23:27] <willwh> to suspend, after X time unused
[23:27] <willwh> Guest52064: sure
[23:28] <willwh> we might not be able to help :)
[23:28] <U-b-u-n-t-u> sleep = never
[23:28] <Guest52064> Well whatever I put in my documents folder goes on my desktop :/
[23:28] <Guest52064> It's annoying
[23:28] <Guest52064> how can I stop this
[23:28] <willwh> I am not sure if that's intended in lubuntu, I'm afraid
[23:28] <willwh> that does not happen in the other variants, afaik
[23:29] <Guest52064> damnnn
[23:29] <IT> anyone heard about that chromium as default web browser decision?
[23:29] <IT> should be in the next ubuntu versions
[23:30] <willwh> IT: not sure - I think it's being considered
[23:30] <willwh> I use it ;)
 you'll have to make sure you get your mouse driver from the source U-b-u-n-t-u  <<< how do I make sure of that? I just upgraded I didnt change the driver
[23:30] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: that seems really odd.
[23:30] <exutux> Guest52064: do you have user-dirs.dir and user-dirs.locale in your ~/.config/  dir?
[23:30] <The-Decoy> IT: It sounds like Thunderbird is definite, and Mark mentioned Chromium, but nothing official yet...
[23:30] <U-b-u-n-t-u> willwh, it is and its awful I have to restart everytime
[23:30] <xskydevilx> Does anyone if it is possible to "get" the new "Ubuntu Software Centre" in Oneiric?
[23:30] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: have you checked your syslog? :)
[23:30] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: is it usb?
[23:30] <IT> i also read that they're going to take the LibreOffice out
[23:31] <IT> and leave the users without any office...
[23:31] <U-b-u-n-t-u> it is a usb plugged into a VM switch
[23:31] <IT> the openoffice development stopped
[23:31] <willwh> IT: not too surprising, very much like Windows.
[23:31] <U-b-u-n-t-u> the VM switch is a usb as well
[23:31] <IT> the whole point is not letting the user search for common softwares :S
[23:31] <U-b-u-n-t-u> vm --- KVM
[23:31] <willwh> ah
[23:31] <The-Decoy> IT: you can only fit so much in 700MB :)
[23:31] <willwh> well that could be your problem
[23:32] <U-b-u-n-t-u> willwh,  but it was working before the upgrade and all the ubuntu distros from 6.04
[23:32] <willwh> then you need to check your syslog
[23:32] <willwh> \there is probably something in there that can point you to the problem
[23:32] <willwh> we can't help you without more information
[23:32] <willwh> "I have a mouse plugged in to a usb KVM switch"
[23:32] <willwh> what do we do with that? :P
[23:32] <marriedman624> can anybody help me with syntax to mount root partition in live CD?
[23:33] <usr13> im back
[23:33] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ok willwh what is the command for the syslog
[23:33] <marriedman624> ok
[23:33] <edbian> marriedman624: sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt
[23:33] <args[0]> marriedman624: please dont ask to ask, just ask
[23:33] <willwh> you've been using ubuntu since 6.04 and you've never looked at your syslog? D:
[23:34] <U-b-u-n-t-u> I dont remember ever command line
[23:34] <usr13> Which partition is it?
[23:34] <exutux> marriedman624: reboot in recovery mode choose root and edit your file from there
[23:34] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: cat /var/log/syslog
[23:34] <U-b-u-n-t-u> thanks The-Decoy
[23:34] <edbian> marriedman624: What are you trying to fix?
[23:34] <willwh> also; locate syslog
[23:34] <willwh> would show you
[23:34] <willwh> :d
[23:34] <The-Decoy>  U-b-u-n-t-u: or grep mouse /var/log/syslog will search all lines in log that has "mouse"
[23:35] <rawfodog> hey. So I got a 32bit ubuntu on my laptop, just got more ram, wanna update it to 64 bit. is there an easy way to do this or will I have to just do a fesh install
[23:35] <willwh> rawfodog: fresh install.
[23:35] <rawfodog> doh!
[23:35] <edbian> rawfodog: You have to reinstall :(  How much ram do you have now?
[23:35] <U-b-u-n-t-u> looking now The-Decoy thanks!
[23:35] <rawfodog> 4 gigs. Well ... 3.5 :P
[23:35] <edbian> rawfodog: with 32 bit pae kernel you can use it all
[23:35] <rawfodog> hmmm
[23:36] <rawfodog> It guess it's not a big deal. Just my power lust I guess
[23:36] <rawfodog> Wanna play starcraft 2. Not even sure if it was the ram or the GPU that was holding me back :D
[23:36] <U-b-u-n-t-u> grep mouse /var/log/syslog  <<< came back as blank the cursor just arrowed down
[23:36] <rawfodog> Anyway, thanks
[23:37] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: I wouldn't grep it, cat.
[23:37] <willwh> you can scroll back in a terminal using shift+pg up or pgdown
[23:37] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ok
[23:37] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: It means no lines have the word "mouse" in it.  willwh is right, cat is best (or vim if you're comfortable with it)
[23:38] <willwh> The-Decoy: vimftw! ;]
[23:38] <DrDamnit> How do you configure Ubuntu to skip over entries in /etc/fstab that could not be mounted?
[23:38] <The-Decoy> willwh:  :)  Fighting the war against the evil Eighty Megs And Continually Swapping!
[23:39] <willwh> The-Decoy: you have any ideas on a package that would let me limit my bandwidth
[23:39] <exutux> DrDamnit: comment out  the lines
[23:39] <willwh> either per inertface, or PID, or anything
[23:39] <U-b-u-n-t-u> there was nothing about the mouse in syslog
[23:39] <willwh> U-b-u-n-t-u: it's probably not your mouse
[23:39] <willwh> what do you see before the last boot up
[23:40] <willwh> after your failure occured
[23:40] <The-Decoy> willwh: Nothing that I'm aware of.  I know apps like Transmission have it built-in, but I don't know a global one.
[23:40] <willwh> ah bah.
[23:40] <yuk1z> hi , switching back to the desktop during a game ... is there a easy way for do it
[23:40] <willwh> I need to do some testing of video content / smoothstreams, and need to simulate low bandwidth
[23:40] <DrDamnit> exutux: of course comment out the lines. But once the raid array comes up, mount -a mounts it. I would prefer to not comment it out of /etc/fstab
[23:41] <The-Decoy> yuk1z: some games will let you Alt-TAB out of them.
[23:41] <willwh> The-Decoy: although I need to be able to switch it onthe fly, trickle doesn't help ;x
[23:41] <yuk1z> i know
[23:41] <yuk1z> but it dont works with HoN when im ingame
[23:41] <exutux> DrDamnit: if entries are commented out, mount -a doesn't read them
[23:42] <Bunbury> hi all
[23:42] <Bunbury> is there a java 7 ppa for ubuntu 10.10 yet?
[23:42] <U-b-u-n-t-u> willwh, and The-Decoy all I see if the mounting and permissions and my username from the last boot
[23:43] <The-Decoy> willmh: that may be easier done at the routing level with qos.  There's even some QoS stuff in the kernel config, but I've never messed with it.
[23:44] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: you are sudo'ing the command, right?
[23:44] <U-b-u-n-t-u> yes
[23:44] <The-Decoy> had to be sure ;)
[23:44] <U-b-u-n-t-u> =)
[23:44] <yagoo> gksudo ksudo
[23:44] <U-b-u-n-t-u> while I dont know every command line I know to sudo
[23:45] <yagoo> !gksudo
[23:45] <DrDamnit> exutux: right. the problem is that I need and want the directories mounted that I am having a problem with. They just don't mount in time during the boot sequence. I need them mounted.
[23:45] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: try "dmesg"
[23:45] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ok
[23:46] <exutux> DrDamnit: mount it by hand after boot, or fix it, another chance is to put some mount options like noauto
[23:47] <exutux> DrDamnit: so btw what issue do you have with that mount points?
[23:47] <Kiwini> Hey all, I was wondering what would be better for a netbook, Ubuntu or Kubuntu? Speed wise. Only asking because I noticed a netbook variant of plasma in KDE but no netbook specific things in Ubuntu anymore.
[23:48] <The-Decoy> Kiwini: I tried Kubuntu and openSuse on an eePc... it was nightmarishly slower...
[23:48] <WallyJ2K> ok. Ran updates, no the error log shows: Fatal server error - Server is already active for display 0 - If the server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock abd start again. Is that a file I need to delete? From the terminal?
[23:48] <willwh> Kiwini: there is lubuntu.....
[23:48] <exutux> !fstab > DrDamnit
[23:48] <U-b-u-n-t-u> The-Decoy, I didnt see an error message
[23:49] <The-Decoy> Kiwini: yes, Lubuntu is REALLY fast.
[23:49] <IT> it's not like ubuntu is slow :P
[23:49] <Kiwini> Mmk, I'll check out lubuntu's site.
[23:49] <DrDamnit> exutux: I have a truecrypt volume that is on the RAID array. It has to be manually decrypted before it can be mounted. So, during boot, it fails. All I want to do is tell mountall to skip over the volume that doesn't exist. I'll use mount -a after it is decrypted. Will noauto do this?
[23:50] <OldFarter> Thers a windows box on the local network sharing a folder without password....  but if i click on the name of the windows computer (in the lan browser on ubuntu)  it demands password
[23:50] <OldFarter> ?
[23:50] <OldFarter> any suggestions
[23:50] <OldFarter> ?
[23:50] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: is there an entry in there for the mouse?  unplug it, plug it in again, then dmesg again and see if anything new appears.  Also try without KVM to see if there's more luck.
[23:51] <exutux> noauto doesn't mount autmatically at boot, I don't remember now if mount -a do it
[23:51]  * yagoo ignores oldfarter
[23:51] <U-b-u-n-t-u> ok The-Decoy
[23:51] <Kiwini> hmm I was looking more for versions supported by Canonical though
[23:51] <exutux> DrDamnit: noauto - The filesystem will NOT be automatically mounted at startup, or when mount passed -a. You must explicitly mount the filesystem.
[23:52] <induz> I have  Live ubuntu .iso on my download folder, I downloade it from UNETbootin, My USB boots but can not find the Ubuntu..how should I go aboit it
[23:53] <IT> why not using a CD?
[23:53] <ikonia> induz: did you read the install documentation you've been given 10 times
[23:53] <induz> can I mount the ISO image by acetone and copy all the contents from iso to my USB'
[23:53] <IT> i heard nothing good about unetbootin
[23:53] <exutux> DrDamnit: you can create a little script for mount your directories by hand... so you'll can type ./script instead mount -a
[23:53] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: to narrow it down, "dmesg | grep usb"
[23:54] <exutux> DrDamnit: and get out entries from fstab
[23:54] <induz> I had proble with booting from USB, now it boots but can not find the live Ubuntu
[23:54] <ikonia> induz: did you use the guide you've been given 10 times by ubottu ?
[23:55] <IT> induz, is there something that is stopping you from using a CD?
[23:55] <induz> Hello ikonia yes i read and trying to figure it out how
[23:55] <marriedman624> how can I delete a ubuntu partition?
[23:55] <ikonia> induz: please give me the link for the guide you are currently using
[23:55] <induz> IT, not really
[23:55] <IT> then use a CD in my opinion, a friend of mine had some problems with unetbootin too
[23:56] <DrDamnit> exutux: I was trying to avoid scripting this... but it looks like there is no way around it. Thanks for your help.
[23:57] <exutux> :-/
[23:57] <yagoo> exutux, userland tools don't need /etc/fstab
[23:57] <U-b-u-n-t-u> The-Decoy, generic-usb 0003:045E:0083.0003: input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse] on usb-0000:00:10.0-1.4/input0 this line?
[23:57] <yagoo> there's gnomevfs
[23:57] <simpla> hi all
[23:58] <U-b-u-n-t-u> The-Decoy, I also have this line input: Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.4/2-1.4:1.0/input/input5
[23:58] <The-Decoy> U-b-u-n-t-u: yep, that gives you a reference point.  When it happens again, run that command again and see what new messages are there.
[23:59] <The-Decoy> Gotta go... later all!
[23:59] <U-b-u-n-t-u> The-Decoy, how will I be able to get to the terminal with the mouse out?
[23:59] <csdwifi> ctrl alt t
