[14:48] <Kingsy> BajK: I have plugged it in, and nothing happens.. no options in skype
[14:49] <candrea> Pelo, it's actually adduser username groupname ;-)
[14:49] <BajK> Kingsy: hm it works fine here :D did you restart skype? possible that skype doesnt react to hardware changes right away since it is a non-native application
[14:49] <Pelo> candrea, don'T tell me tell xro
[14:50] <candrea> Pelo, usermod is right too, so adduser won't work; it was just fyi
[14:51] <razorsharp> candrea, Pici: it worked, thanks.
[14:52] <brokenHDD> okay, I now have 36 img files after dd_rescuing the faulty drive, how do I mount/repair/salvage from all these images?
[14:52] <xro> candrea, i get --> unknown group, but the group exists (getent group return it)... But the group is local and not on the ldap... have you an idea
[14:52] <candrea> razorsharp, if you miss the admin group, maybe you are missing some other important groups too. I suggest you to grab a /etc/group (and also a /etc/passwd) from a "sane" Ubuntu and compare it with yours
[14:53] <Pelo> I'm having this issue where Evolution won'T fetch/send emails anymore , anyone know the solution ?
[14:53] <kaizokuroof_> Hello all, I am trying to install SDL 1.2.11 - Some how I ended up trying to find out where X window is installed... Does anyone know where it is installed on Ubuntu 11.04 by default?
[14:54] <kaizokuroof_> Pelo, do you recieve an error message?
[14:54] <Kingsy> BajK: let me try that
[14:54] <xro> candrea, Pelo, forgive me... i'm stupid :(
[14:54] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_,  no it just tries to retreive ne email for ever
[14:54] <Pelo> xro, we forgive ignorance, not stupidity :-)
[14:55] <Psydoll> Pelo: Is Ubuntu popular with African Americans?
[14:55] <Pelo> Psydoll, not a clue, I'M neither
[14:55] <Kingsy> BajK: nope.. no joy
[14:55] <Kingsy> it still plays the audio through my speakers etc
[14:55] <Kingsy> the usb phone is none responsive
[14:55] <BajK> you have pulseaudio installed?
[14:55] <kaizokuroof_> Pelo, What type of mail are you using?
[14:56] <candrea> xro, no problem! is everything solved?
[14:56] <BajK> so you could manually "drag" the sound stream from skype over to the other device
[14:56] <BajK> thats what I use to do when flash does not recognize I add/remove a device
[14:56] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_,  a pop3/smtp from my isp, and a gmail
[14:56] <Kingsy> BajK: well the mic speakers and ringing are all on "pulse audio server (local)"
[14:56] <razorsharp> candrea: yes i noticed many others missing too. thanks
[14:56] <BajK> hm try setting device priority
[14:56] <BajK> in pulseaudio settings
[14:57] <BajK> that the headphones have higher prioritx
[14:57] <Kingsy> BajK: where is the pulseaudio settings ?
[14:57] <BajK> an are used automatically if available
[14:57] <BajK> uh, should be sound devices
[14:57] <BajK> dunno, I use KDE:D
[14:57] <kaizokuroof_> Pelo, Can you try running Evolution as root?
[14:57] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_, from my google search it would appear that evolution in natty is a bit of a lemon , so many problems, can'T figure out which one applyes to me, those I thought did don'T seem to have working fixes
[14:57] <candrea> razorsharp, also remember to check with the packages you have installed when adding the missing users/groups (for example, you don't need the postfix user/group if you don't have postfix installed)
[14:58] <bretzel> I think Natty is the most successful Ubuntu release - Unity, despite the haters, is very usable for me and better then Gnome 3. Gnome3 looks like it is still alpha stable of incoming radical UI changes. I find it far from finished yet still missing so much usability...etc .. okay my mouth is closed now :)
[14:58] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_, sure but I don'T think my account info will be in there
[14:58] <BluesKaj> how to underline text in gedit or kate ?
[14:58] <Konza> Hi all, i was writing a shell script. I wanted to echo [ OK ] at the right end of the screen. How is it possible?
[14:58] <Kingsy> BajK: ok, I can see the phone in the sound options.. there doesnt seem to be any pulseaudio options or anything
[14:58] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_, it starts up the configuration wizard
[14:59] <BajK> Kingsy: can you change device priority?
[14:59] <BajK> there
[14:59] <mattgyver> Konza, echo "[ OK }"
[14:59] <bretzel> Konza: let X = $COLUMNS - (string len) ?
[14:59] <candrea> bretzel, your opinions are welcome! But this is the support channel, if you want to, you can join #ubuntu-offtopic and discuss with other your ideas :-)
[14:59] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_,  do you want me to proceed and add a hunch of accounts to the root-evolution?
[14:59] <mattgyver> oops, should have been a ]
[15:00] <kaizokuroof_> Pelo, Could try it. It will at least confirm if it's a permissions issue.
[15:00] <KaiForce> getting the following message on new Ubuntu 10.04 Server LTS machine:  "Your vendor has not defined Socket macro SO_REUSEPORT, used at /usr/lib/perl/5.10/IO/Socket/INET.pm line 193"
[15:00] <KaiForce> google not revealing the solution
[15:00] <Kingsy> BajK: not that I can see
[15:00] <bretzel> echo -e "\e[$X -- oops forgot column position ansi command ...
[15:01] <Pelo> kaizokuroof_,  you should have started with that, I'M gonna check the permissions first
[15:02] <bullgard4> What Ubuntu program can you recommend to edit a XML file  which keeps the line structure? This question is probably equivalent to asking: "What Ubuntu program can you recommend to edit a DOM tree?" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Object_Model. Please do not recommend vi, vim.
[15:02] <BajK> Kingsy: hm sorry, try asking somebody else… I thought Ubuntu finally was as advanced as KDE but it isnt^^ I can just click the Headset and move priorities around ^^
[15:02] <bretzel> echo -e "\e[$XA$text" ?
[15:03] <mrdeb> Ubuntu uses Gnome and KDE
[15:03] <prdgnc> 1608
[15:03] <compdoc> I thought Ubuntu finally was as advanced as KDE  <- huh?
[15:03] <DirtyDawg> Ubuntu isnt the same thing as KDE
[15:03] <kaizokuroof_> BajK, Try Kubuntu!
[15:04] <antihero> Is there a way to make sftp drives mounted via nautilus more "permanent" and stable
[15:04] <bretzel> NAtty still uses 4.6.2, 4.6.3 is out since begining of the month.
[15:06] <xro> candrea, yes
[15:06] <mrdeb> has chromium outdone firefox now
[15:06] <DirtyDawg> no
[15:06] <mrdeb> how so
[15:06] <IdleOne> !polls
[15:06] <mrdeb> it is fast
[15:06] <BluesKaj> imo . yes ...ff has become bloated
[15:06] <mrdeb> it starts faster and moves faster
[15:06] <mrdeb> yes BluesKaj
[15:07] <DirtyDawg> blasphamy
[15:07] <mrdeb> plus firefox 4 has weird designs
[15:07] <Pici> !ot
[15:07] <mrdeb> very unintuitive
[15:07] <BluesKaj> DirtyDawg, well to add to your blasphemy , I use kde as well :)
[15:07] <DirtyDawg> :o
[15:08] <mrdeb> why do you use kde
[15:08] <mrdeb> never mind
[15:08] <BajK> kaizokuroof_: I use it all day :P
[15:08] <kaizokuroof_> KDE > Gnome
[15:08] <IdleOne> mrdeb: chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:08] <BajK> compdoc: since Unity is a self-made thing I would set Ubuntu and Unity on the same level whereas Gnome and KDE are distro-independent things :)

[15:09] <BluesKaj> mrdeb, it's amatter of taste as well as familiarity ..when I migrated from windows I found kde more familiar after using windows at work for 10 yrs
[15:10] <maxime__> !fr
[15:10] <DrGrov> It looks like it cuts out the desktop on the right side so I can not go there with my mouse or anything.

[15:14] <kaizokuroof_> excedere, have you checked for errors on your install media?
[15:14] <anon12> excedere: Check both ur cd and hdd for errors
[15:14] <HelloWorld321> !pam
[15:14] <excedere> yes, and burned 2 discs to be certain
[15:15] <BluesKaj> BrixSat, if your live cd doesn't boot, then you have change the boot sequence in the BIOS to cdrom as the first in the sequence .
[15:15] <kaizokuroof_> excedere, Also try booting into the live CD using the safe mode option. Do you have crazy hardware?
[15:15] <BrixSat> BluesKaj:  yes
[15:15] <excedere> hdd has been checked multiple times, Im on the livecd now

[15:17] <tester123> Does anyone know why ufw is inactive when resuming from a suspend?  Any fixes for that so my firewall is automatically reloaded upon resume from suspend?

[15:18] <[min|dvir|us]> *startup?
[15:18] <genii-around> BrixSat: sudo tune2fs -C0 /dev/sdX#      where X is your drive letter like a, b, c or so on, and # is the partition number within that drive
[15:19] <BrixSat> genii-around:  where would i do that?
[15:19] <anon12> anand:oh yeah sorry...kinda half asleep here
[15:19] <BrixSat> i dont have terminal access during boot
[15:19] <BrixSat> genii-around:  i dont have terminal access during boot
[15:19] <excedere> Ill boot back into fedora and give it a shot
[15:19] <BluesKaj> BrixSat, just hit the escape key
[15:20] <BrixSat> i get a bunch of lines goind up  every second
[15:20] <[min|dvir|us]> Anyone?
[15:20] <BrixSat> can i type it normaly?
[15:20] <genii-around> BrixSat: Boot to the Recovery option from grub menu to issue the command, then issue: reboot after
[15:20] <brokenHDD> how should I cat a backup of my HDD that's been split?
[15:21] <[min|dvir|us]> brokenHDD: Consider rsync.
[15:21] <BrixSat> genii-around:  you dont get it, the disk has no system on it it is a portable disk inserted in the pc so i must boot using live cd
[15:21] <ksinkar> how does one use a zte modem on ubuntu?
[15:21] <arand> brokenHDD: split in what way? Original format?
[15:21] <ksinkar> it is not able to do modeswitch automatically?
[15:22] <jconnolly> got a weird gnome issue here.  Looking for what to change in gconf-editor.  If I click on a mounted disk under "Places" in menu, it opens up gnome-terminal...  wtf?
[15:22] <mrdeb> how do you fix grub from command line
[15:22] <mrdeb> ?
[15:22] <BrixSat> genii-around:  i need to use somethig at grub so i can stop disk check
[15:22] <jconnolly> I'll mail beer to anyone that can help me out.  This is driving me batshit.
[15:23] <josephnexus_1> jconnolly:
[15:23] <josephnexus_1> what's the issue?
[15:23] <brokenHDD> I used dd_rescue and its split into consecutive .img files (imgaa, imgab etc..)
[15:23] <jconnolly> it doesn't happen if I click on directories on the desktop... only when I click on a mounted disk in "Places"
[15:24] <jconnolly> josephnexus_1: when I select a mounted disk by clicking on it under "Places" in the menu, it launches gnome-terminal rather than nautilus at the mount-point
[15:24] <jconnolly> looking for what I need to change view gconf-editor to fix it
[15:24] <josephnexus_1> ah
[15:24] <josephnexus_1> that's an interesting issue
[15:24] <jconnolly> annoying =/
[15:24] <josephnexus_1> yeah
[15:25] <josephnexus_1> let me check one moment
[15:25] <jconnolly> much obliged, josephnexus_1
[15:25] <josephnexus_1> have you tried just clearing out gconf and having gnome recreate it?
[15:25] <[min|dvir|us]> Anyone know how to make a service start on startup?
[15:26] <jconnolly> how would I do that?  /me googles
[15:26] <josephnexus_1> well, you'd lose some specific changes you've made to gconf
[15:26] <arand> brokenHDD: Did ddrescue do the splitting?
[15:26] <jconnolly> that's fine, I can always go back and recreate them
[15:26] <josephnexus_1> but you should just be able to backup, and then delete the .gconf file
[15:26] <jconnolly> is that in ~ or somewhere in /etc ?
[15:26] <josephnexus_1> that will be in ~
[15:27] <josephnexus_1> ~/.gconf or somesuch
[15:27] <abhinavmehta> whats this "natty" in ubuntu..?
[15:27] <jconnolly> sweet.  I'll try that.  PM me your addy if you want to collect on that beer ;D
[15:28] <abhinavmehta> ?
[15:28] <arand> brokenHDD: Anyways, I think "cat image.* | dd_rescue - /dev/sdXY" would be the way to o..
[15:28] <KM0201> !natty | abhinavmehta
[15:28] <brokenHDD> would it be /dev/sdXY or the mount point?
[15:29] <BrixSat> genii-around:  i need to use somethig at grub so i can stop disk check
[15:29] <brokenHDD> I mean its mounted at /media/sda1
[15:29] <abhinavmehta> KM0201: ghosh...its the new-release code...I still rmbr karmic kola only...  :D
[15:29] <genii-around> BrixSat: You can add boot option of: fastboot   to the grub line which contains the kernel /vmlinuz  stanza
[15:29] <KM0201> abhinavmehta: yah karmic is EOL now.
[15:29] <genii-around> BrixSat: Apologies on lag, work required me
[15:30] <arand> brokenHDD: You can't stream an image to a mount point, you need to do that to a device.
[15:30] <abhinavmehta> I've just hearing Unity after karmic kola..don't know how I missed this Natty..!
[15:31] <brokenHDD> ahh gotcha...it seems to be going now, bt shouldn't my hdd be unmounted?
[15:31] <abhinavmehta> anywyas....many people these days are criticizing Ubuntu new release...twitter stream is full of this..
[15:31] <brokenHDD> ahh, it looks like its unmounted itself
[15:31] <abhinavmehta> whats really wrong with Unity....
[15:31] <abhinavmehta> ?
[15:31] <DirtyDawg> loads of people hate it
[15:32] <arand> brokenHDD: The device should be yes.
[15:32] <brokenHDD> yea, I think its going now
[15:32] <KM0201> abhinavmehta: it's a little glitchy at times, a bit of a resource hog... it just needs some bugs worked out.. i imagien by 11.10, or 12.04.. Unity is gonna be pretty good.
[15:32] <abhinavmehta> yes...perhaps, many of my mates have suggested me to move to fedora
[15:32] <KM0201> just think in 11.10, when your option will be gnome 3, or unity...lmao.. all kinds of mess in the making
[15:32] <abhinavmehta> KM0201: Hmmm
[15:33] <galaxy_999> abhinavmehta, most of the people that jumped ship moved to mint
[15:33] <arand> KM0201: I don't think g3 will be an option any more than openbox is an option in ubuntu..
[15:33] <KM0201> probably gonna be a mass exodus to xubuntu 11.04
[15:33] <arand> KM0201: Or, shell, rather.
[15:33] <DirtyDawg> i was told fedora for dumb americans?
[15:33] <KM0201> arand: i thought i read Gnome 3 would be defaultin 11.10, could be wrong
[15:34] <Pici> KM0201: Gnome 3 will be supported on 11.10, but unity will be the default.
[15:34] <arand> KM0201: Yes it will be, not the gnome shell though, DE  will be unity/unity-2d according to plans
[15:34] <abhinavmehta> galaxy_999: mint...can you abbreviate it full..or url to its home..?
[15:34] <josephnexus_1> change isn't bad
[15:34] <KM0201> ah ok
[15:34] <KM0201> wel, i'm happy w/ lxde, so i'm not going anywhere
[15:34] <abhinavmehta> galaxy_999 never heard abt it.
[15:34] <josephnexus_1> if you aren't a big fan of change, stick w/ the LTS and what not
[15:34] <josephnexus_1> :-P
[15:34] <[min|dvir|us]> I like Unity a lot.
[15:34] <josephnexus_1> it's been working well for me
[15:35] <DirtyDawg> [min|dvir|us]: whats the punchline
[15:35] <KM0201> josephnexus_1: lts doesn't really have anything to do w/ "change"...
[15:35] <Pici> Anyways, can we get back to support topics. #ubuntu isn't for discussion, thats what #ubuntu-offtopic is for.
[15:35] <galaxy_999> abhinavmehta, linux mint
[15:35] <Pici> !ot
[15:35] <josephnexus_1> KM0201: it still changes, but not ever 6 months
[15:35] <josephnexus_1> :-P
[15:35] <KM0201> ..
[15:35] <galaxy_999> or you could use a different DE. there is no shortage of those
[15:35] <KM0201> josephnexus_1: you're still missing the point.
[15:36] <Pici> KM0201, galaxy_999, josephnexus_1: Can we move the offtopic conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[15:36] <josephnexus_1> sure
[15:36] <abhinavmehta> galaxy_999: thank you...I'll try this on VM

How should I proceed ?

[16:44] <nimbiotics> raja_, get minitube
[16:44] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: well, you probably ought to check out the INSTALL file if it exists, or the README
[16:45] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: there might be other dependencies listed in one or both of those files
[16:45] <raja_> ok how to get it nimbiotics
[16:45] <galaxy_999> raja_, 'youtube-dl' its a set of python scripts
[16:45] <nimbiotics> raja_: google?
[16:45] <raja_> ok that mean i must that file first
[16:45]  * galaxy_999 nimbiotics, duckduckgo
[16:45] <Pici> !google
[16:46] <tensorpudding> raja_: minitube is available in the software center
[16:46] <r0fs3ck5> syedomar: no idea
[16:46] <kodekamel> wow.  ubuntu users are noobs
[16:46] <syedomar> :)
[16:46] <raja_> roger TQ
[16:46] <kodekamel> heh.. at least it looks cool.
[16:46] <Pici> kodekamel: Please refrain from such comments in this channel.
[16:46] <tensorpudding> raja_: if you want a program, you should check to see if it is in the software center first, because that is the easiest way to install programs
[16:46] <kodekamel> why man... look at these questions?
[16:46] <Pici> !guidelines | kodekamel
[16:47] <raja_> ok TQ i do it now
[16:47] <kodekamel> I'm not trying to argue bud...  I know the guidlines
[16:47] <dellph> hello how to used rm to delete does not have a filename contains "thumb"
[16:47] <dellph> ?
[16:47] <nimbiotics> tensorpudding: the readme file is not helpfull at all, and the only other file is the Makefile shown at http://paste.ubuntu.com/615926/, Again, I have no idea how to compile it though
[16:47] <pitthappens> why is everyone in every channel except ubuntu a bunch of buttheads
[16:47] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: okay, did you install libsdl1.2-dev then?
[16:48] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: once you have, try running make again
[16:48] <kodekamel> pitthappens !guidelines lol
[16:48] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: got an Ubuntu relatef question, codecamel?
[16:49] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: it might still fail, but it ought to get further this time
[16:49] <kodekamel> yes...  I was waiting patiently.  However, I post again.
[16:49] <kodekamel> I'm having an issue with eclipse/subclipse.  When I add a repository I get an error "Malformed Network Data"  Has anyone ran into this issue?  I'm here in the ubuntu channel because none of other distros have had this problem?
[16:49] <nimbiotics> tensorpudding: I guess its time for me to give up, at least for now; I'm getting a bunch of warnings and errors. THANK YOU very much!
[16:50] <nimbiotics> tensorpudding: i'll get back to it some other day though
[16:50] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: where did you find that program, by the way?
[16:50] <dellph> hello how to used rm to delete files does not have a filename contains "thumb"
[16:50] <nibbler_> rm *thumb*
[16:50] <nimbiotics> tensorpudding: softpedia, but its listed in many other places
[16:51] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: softpedia is bad bad
[16:51] <nibbler_> dellph, but be careful....
[16:51] <brujoh> is it possible to remount an NFS file system with new mount options without completely unmounting it first?
[16:51] <pitthappens> can anyone please help me, my server running ubuntu 11.04 and samba set up, but when i start transferring files from my windows computer to the server, the entire server stops responding to input
[16:51] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: what gives the error?
[16:51] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: generally they repackage the source
[16:51] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: but anyway
[16:51] <tensorpudding> nimbiotics: have you looked at the sudoku programs in the software center?
[16:51] <oCean> nibbler_: dellph warning: rm *thumb* will remove files that do have thumb as part of the name!
[16:51] <nimbiotics> tensorpudding: I understand but this particular port of the game seems very good, at least compared to the POC in the ubuntu software center
[16:52] <joshuau> hi back again
[16:52] <dellph> nibbler_, i think it will delete the file that contains thumb. what i want is the filename does NOT contains thumb.
[16:52] <kodekamel> r0fs3ck5:  The error is returned by the subclipse plugin inside the eclipse-pde gui.   svn checkout from command line works fine.
[16:52] <joshuau> it does work i'm onit on my main machine now in @trial mode@
[16:53] <dellph> nibbler_, any other ideas?
[16:53] <dellph> oCean, yes. I want the other way around.
[16:53] <dondf0x> LS=$(ls|grep -v thumb);for F in $LS;do rm -rf $F;done
[16:53] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: you mean like this: http://www.svnforum.org/threads/32499-svn-ssh-via-Subclipse-Malformed-network-data?
[16:53] <r0fs3ck5> http://www.svnforum.org/threads/32499-svn-ssh-via-Subclipse-Malformed-network-data
[16:54] <rkhshm> is it possible to execute shell cmds along with sftp invocation to the server directly...(Like its done in ssh)
[16:54] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: seconf link
[16:55] <joshuau> anyone with still?
[16:55] <nibbler_> dellph, sorry for that, i misread you. well, if you dont have special characters or spaces in the filenames: ls |grep -v thumb | xargs rm (to try it out replace rm by echo, so you see the parameter list which you would pass to rm
[16:55] <joshuau> anyone with me still????
[16:55] <sipior> dondf0x: you'll want to be sure to quote those environmental variables, else amusing things will happen if there are spaces in the filenames.
[16:55] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: reported on SUSE also.
[16:56] <dellph> nibbler_, thanks a lot it works. you a genius :D
[16:56] <pitthappens> !guidelines
[16:56] <joshuau> anyone helping me yet???
[16:57] <r0fs3ck5> joshuau: yes, bad disc.  burn it to a *cd* using ubuntu.  check the disc afterwards using the instructions on the ubuntu website
[16:57] <razorsharp> joshuau, make sure your machine boots from cd, check the bios.
[16:57] <joshuau> how do i do that??
[16:58] <c2tarun> joshuau, you still having problems with booting system from CD
[16:58] <kodekamel> r0fs3ck5:  I guess that's a similar issue.   I'm not following what you meant by "seconf"
[16:58] <joshuau> no it works fine on my 2008 pc but not on my 2003 pc
[16:59] <razorsharp> joshuau, it's different from bios to bios, try hitting the DEL key repeadedly while booting. if that doesn't get you there, try F2, some also use F11 or F12
[16:59] <kodekamel> r0fs3ck5:  but no... That's what's going on here.
[16:59] <c2tarun> anyone using xchat here?
[16:59] <r0fs3ck5> kodekamel: :).  I'd suggest you would have more luck with the maintainers of that particular package.
[16:59] <joshuau> ok lets say i get to the system setup screen, what do i do then???
[16:59] <j0d0> I have installed Ubuntu on a 40gig SSD but would like to run all my files and programs from a small RAID. All hardware is operational but I am not sure how to install a program like VMware onto a second hard drive for regular use. help?
[17:00] <KM0201> c2tarun: probably a lot of people
[17:00] <c2tarun> KM0201, how can I turn off join/part notifications?
[17:00] <kodekamel> I agree.  Thanks for look.  I was just hoping to find someone with the same issue.
[17:00] <Pici> !quietxchat | c2tarun
[17:00] <joshuau> ...
[17:00] <c2tarun> Pici, that's helpful :) thanks
[17:01] <KM0201> c2tarun: right click a channel, settings "hide join part"... put a check next to it
[17:01] <razorsharp> joshuau, there should be a boot option, should be obvious if not well walk you thru.
[17:01] <c2tarun> KM0201, oh.. that was easy :)
[17:01] <rayvtirx> i seem to have lost the default coloring of directorys, executables etc in the console of ubuntu server, any idea how to get them back?
[17:01] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: did you change your shell, or delete your shell configuration file?
[17:02] <nuefox> Is there a way to install Ubuntu, in AHCI mode, while having a SSD drive, but trying to install another hdd? :)
[17:02] <joshuau> Yes OK OK but i think the boot order is fine . it boots the dvd drive first anyway.
[17:02] <skor> anyone else have a problem with javaws and clicking "run" when prompted with a website certificate warning ?
[17:02] <rayvtirx> i havnt changed it so i guess i must have deleted it
[17:02] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: what do you get when you run 'which ls'
[17:03] <rayvtirx>  /bin/ls
[17:03] <skor> all I can find on google is someone else asking the same question
[17:03] <BluesKaj> joshuau, sorry to interrupt, but are you trying to install ubuntu natty using the livecd on a pc made in 2003 ?
[17:03] <joshuau> maybe i need ubuntu 7 or 8 but where are they?
[17:04] <joshuau> BluesKaj that is correct
[17:04] <c2tarun> BluesKaj, well is that a problem?
[17:04] <HelloWorld321> Are folders or PDFs cached by default?  If I keep printing a PDF, and the old data keeps showing up, should I just clear some buffer somewhere?
[17:04] <rww> It shouldn't be, I've done it several times.

[17:05] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: try running that command
[17:05] <oCean> joshuau: did you even read that message?
[17:05] <skor> I thought the liveCD can fall back to text mode
[17:05] <skor> there was an option at boot IIRC ??
[17:05] <BluesKaj> joshuau, http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate

[17:07] <rayvtirx> how would i do that?
[17:07] <razorsharp> joshuau, look at the bios just to be sure, because cd drivers get initialized at boot, so you would think it is trying to boot from cd.
[17:07] <_r> Can someone help me with this error from using nmcli?

[17:26] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: oh, that's your problem
[17:26] <asteig> yokahu: Google for "virtualbox" and install it on Windows 7. The site that you download it from has tutorials.
[17:27] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: it probably doesn't think that xterm can show colors?
[17:27] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: or something
[17:27] <prod___> Hi all, i really need a push in the right direction. I need to share users and groups across my lan so that all the computers on the lan can access my NFS shares and manipulate files with their respective permissions. What software would i use to accomplish this?
[17:27] <yokahu> for someone  computer inliterate as me how do i dual boot  my  acer   windows 7 machine with ubuntu ? I  currently am booted into ubuntu 11,4  using pendrive
[17:27] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: that would be kinda odd though
[17:28] <yokahu> dont want to spoil my  windows partition , However i partitio?
[17:28] <akakak> prod___: are you in a workplace or at home? Do you have windows machines currently connected to your network?
[17:28] <rayvtirx> may be something to do with my installing ubuntu-dektop then removing it
[17:29] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: i don't think so
[17:29] <Guest10831> Yohaku, first of all make the backups
[17:29] <Guest10831> new Ubuntu CDs come with an option "install and live with Windows"
[17:29] <galaxy_999> yokahu: f00fSteR already answered that question earlier
[17:30] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: well, if nothing else works, just try adding 'alias ls="ls --color=auto"' as the last line of ~/.bashrc
[17:30] <prod___> akakak: Its a home network although i am not really concerned about serving the windows machines. Nonetheless i wouldnt mind if your solution would help both

[17:31] <yokahu> asteig , so this allows me to fully expirience the unlimited ubuntu 11.4 without any limitations, like i am currenly having issues downloading and instaling certain programs like miro while booted on  ubuntu via  pendrive
[17:31] <b6679100> i doubt ill touch linux for a while it may be worth just sticking to windoze....
[17:31] <tensorpudding> yokahu: the installer will have an option to resize windows, giving you room to install ubuntu, this will be the option you want
[17:31] <tensorpudding> !language | b6679100
[17:32] <b6679100> dont tel me what to do
[17:32] <Dulak> it's troll day apparently
[17:32] <rkhshm> guys is it possible to execute cmds directly from the sftp cmd line while logging in to the server as can be done with ssh ?
[17:32] <tensorpudding> there are trolls everyday
[17:32] <rayvtirx> no hasnt worked
[17:32] <RA_drc> b6679100: *don't frakking tell me what to do, toasters.  FTFY
[17:32] <maco> rkhshm: some commands are available
[17:33] <maco> rkhshm: not nearly the full range you have with ssh though
[17:33] <Dulak> rkhshm: not arbitrary commands no, you'd need to use ssh directly
[17:33] <tensorpudding> yokahu: if you install ubuntu this way, you'll be able to boot both windows and ubuntu fine
[17:33] <rkhshm> maco: yes I'm aware that .. But I'd like to know how to do it.
[17:33] <BluesKaj> b6679100, well then go back to win dows ,,,threatening to do so makes no difference to us
[17:33] <rkhshm> maco: something simple as 'ls -l' is available in sftp
[17:33] <rkhshm> however how do i pass the same directly in the cmd line?
[17:33] <yokahu> tensorpudding you mean i can go ahead and instal   ubuntu 11.4   usingpendrive while booted using pendrive without afecting my win 7 OS
[17:34] <akakak> prod___: if you have to service samba clients, it'd probably be easiest to just set up the share as a cifs or smb share, and set the permissions of the share to a user of a specific machine on your network. Such as if you have a windows client named 'clientA', you could add some users to 'clientA' that the rest of your users on your home network would use to access the share with
[17:34] <tensorpudding> yokahu: it will affect windows 7, but not in a destructive way
[17:34] <razorsharp> yokahu, like everyone said, first do a backup, then boot the cd follow the recommended settings, and you will be good.
[17:35] <tensorpudding> yokahu: it will resize the windows 7 partition to make room for ubuntu, but this doesn't affect files on the partition
[17:35] <akakak> prod___: then on the new smb share, add the permissions of the new users you created in the fashion on "clientA\user1"
[17:36] <rkhshm> maco: any ideas?
[17:36] <prod___> akakak: ill try and explain exactly what i am tryin to do and why i am using nfs.
[17:36] <akakak> prod___: using this method basically gives anyone a login to that windows machine that you're adding the "permissions" users for though.
[17:36] <BluesKaj> b6679100, then go back to windows ,,,threatening to do so makes no difference to us.
[17:36] <maco> rkhshm: i dont think you can switch to a full shell from sftp
[17:36] <yokahu> Why is backup nessesary if it does not afect files or window OS?
[17:36] <tensorpudding> yokahu: well, it's somewhat of a lie, it doesn't change the files, but the filesystem
[17:37] <RA_drc> b6679100: ohmigod why are you going back to windows
[17:37] <tensorpudding> yokahu: there was the possibility of bugs causing filesystem corruption, but nowadays the filesystem driver is very robust
[17:37] <akakak> prod___: alrighty. I used that method to give my gf and I access to a backup directory on my media server, while also keeping my media server's media directories open for public users if they come over and want to share media with me
[17:38] <prod___> akakak: I have a virtual machine runnin which is host to an openvpn client and transmission-daemon. This machine will be saving the downloads to a nfs directory mounted in its FS. The nfs-server will be running on the domain-0 and will also be sharing the downloads directory out to all the other *nix machines.
[17:38] <tensorpudding> yokahu: you could still have problems if, say, you lost power while you were resizing, then you could well be completely ruined
[17:39] <prod___> akakak: I have many other thing that i will be addin to the VM that will serv anonimity to my local network
[17:39] <b6679100> prod: chat nicley
[17:39] <Devio> could someone explain why whenever I press ctrl my typing cursor goes and I cant access menus please? I've looked everywhere and I cant find what I've pressed for this to happen :(
[17:39] <akakak> chat nicely?
[17:39] <akakak> :)
[17:39] <galaxy_999> yokahu: and drives these days are very flaky . sometimes things go wrong
[17:40] <b6679100> akakak: stay out of it
[17:40] <galaxy_999> !ot
[17:40] <b6679100> !language galaxy_999
[17:40] <BluesKaj> yokahu, backup is always suggested as a precaution when editing partitions , it's atandard practice
[17:40] <galaxy_999> urdoinitrong
[17:41] <b6679100> !ot
[17:41] <bh> how do i setup swap space
[17:41] <b6679100> !guidelines
[17:41] <akakak> wow.
[17:41] <tensorpudding> yokahu: people suggest backing up because that is the safest route, and while i can't say it's a bad idea, i've not heard of anyone having issues with data loss while resizing partitions in a good long time, and i personally don't back up files on a partition i am going to resize
[17:41] <rww> b6679100: While I admire your desire to educate people about channel rules, could you be a little more relevant and nice about it?
[17:41] <BluesKaj> !swap | bh
[17:42] <b6679100> rww not today i am leaving i got work todo
[17:42] <erle-> how can i create a new account with encrypted home dir?
[17:42] <rayvtirx> well thanks for trying to help anyway , i will use ls --color=auto for now
[17:42] <b6679100> i will come back and help out later
[17:42] <sipior> no hurry.
[17:42] <akakak> thank god.
[17:42] <bh> thanks for the swap page
[17:42] <galaxy_999> erle-: have you already set the machine up or are you doing a fresh install?
[17:43] <erle-> galaxy_999, already set up
[17:43] <akakak> prod___: you could use smb to accomplish that task
[17:43] <erle-> galaxy_999, i want a second account
[17:43] <Devio> does no one know a solution to my question? :<
[17:43] <akakak> and then have it available for your windows users as well as your *nix users
[17:44] <erle-> galaxy_999, 11.04 ubuntu
[17:45] <galaxy_999> erle-: dont know about 11.* but, have you consulted the community help pages yet?
[17:45]  * galaxy_999 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome
[17:45] <bh> i have been hearing about MODIFYING THE LINUX KERNEL (Android).how does code written for X86 work for ARM?do they rewrite all the code
[17:45] <prod___> akakak: But what is the linux equivalent for doing this? later down the road i would like to be able to do a lot of work with PXE booting thin/discless and virtual machines
[17:46] <rww> bh: Try #android or ##linux. #ubuntu is for Ubuntu technical support.
[17:46] <trecc> Dulak: hey i think that solved my problem
[17:46] <qin> Devio: In what program? Ctrl usually trigger command shortcut
[17:46] <bh> sorry!
[17:46] <Devio> in everything, it makes me unable to type anywhere
[17:46] <prod___> akakak: as i understand nfs is a very clean way of doing this
[17:46] <Devio> also makes menus unusable
[17:46] <Devio> however, my type cursor comes back and menus are clickable if i hold CTRL again
[17:47] <f00fSteR> Devio, it's your gdm mouse drivers
[17:47] <qin> Devio: If you press Esc does it help?
[17:47] <Devio> no
[17:47] <f00fSteR> Devio, check out the ubuntu forums for mouse click freeze after install this problem has been solved many times
[17:47] <beef-supreme> thunar problem here
[17:47] <beef-supreme> anyone?
[17:47] <prod___> akakak: so far i have read a little about NIS, LDAP, PAM but i am lost in the sea of jargon
[17:47] <Devio> it's nothing to do with my mouse f00fSteR
[17:47] <Devio> my mouse is fine 100% of the time
[17:48] <Devio> certain other buttons make it happen do like "dash" and "percent" which i just found out
[17:48] <qin> Devio: Check accesibilty, and setting in keyboard section
[17:48] <Devio> it's all unchecked
[17:48] <bh> i have been using ubuntu 8.04 and i know it isn't supported but i heard you can install BULID-ESSENTIAL using the desktop cd
[17:48] <BrainVirus> any networking pros here i can pester with a question?
[17:48] <BluesKaj> prod___, NFS works with linux to linux , not so well linux to windows unless you want to buy a windows NFS server app.
[17:48] <Devio> qin: should any of that be checked? i've not changed anything, it randomly started happening 2 days ago
[17:48] <BrainVirus> a hostname issue
[17:49] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: What's the issue?
[17:49] <qin> Devio: I recall, one for Shift (hardshift), and something about keycombos. A minute.
[17:49] <prod___> Blueskaj: as i mentioned earlier i am not really interested about serving my windows machines. This is a linux project really
[17:49] <nicoulaj> Hi, Unity does not start since latest upgrades, am I the only experiencing this ? Black screen after the splash screen, recovery mode with failsafeX works fine
[17:50] <galaxy_999> erle-: as an aside note: if youre concerned about privacy and security you may also want to investigate using whole disk encryption. as having an encrypted ~/ (while it offers many advantages) has many limitations
[17:50] <Devio> qin: another symptom from this aside from type cursor vanishing and menu locking is I cant move windows when I drag them
[17:50] <user12> can i create a bootable usb for two operating systems. I am planning to buy 32 Gb usb drive and put both windows and ubuntu so that when it crashes i can use it to boot and restore
[17:51] <jkoudys> I'm using the file menu bar in the top panel thing that ubuntu one has. Can I make it so the window title + the file menu options are always visible (like in OSX), ie I don't have to bring my mouse to the top to see the options?
[17:51] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  I have setup ubuntu 10.04 and i am not able to ping the hostname from another machine. I can ping the host name from the ubuntu box itself. I have tried editing dhclient.conf, installing winbind, samba, and editing the nsswitch.conf file to include wins
[17:51] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  the other issue about my setup is that i have a bridged connection, dont know if that matters
[17:51] <qin> Devio: gnome-keyboard-setting > tab Accesibility > Sticky keys ?
[17:51] <MonkeyDust> BrainVirus: what's in /etc/hosts ?
[17:52] <Devio> qin: it's unchecked, should it be?
[17:52] <qin> Devio: No
[17:52] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: the easiest resolution is to just add the hostname to your hosts file on the windows machine.
[17:52] <qin> Devio: Delay? (in tab General)
[17:52] <BrainVirus> MonkeyDust: <IP_ADDRESS> localhost and <IP_ADDRESS> sauron
[17:53] <Devio> qin: that is checked
[17:53] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: wouldnt that enatil setting a static ip for the machine?
[17:53] <BrainVirus> entail*
[17:53] <Devio> qin: changing sticky keys didn't fix anything
[17:53] <MonkeyDust> BrainVirus: sauron should point to your pc's ip-adres, that it gets from the router
[17:53] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: That would make it reliable...so yes
[17:53] <EastDallas> btw...is the other machine a windows machine?
[17:54] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  yes,
[17:54] <Dulak> trecc: glad that worked, it's nice when something so simple solves an issue
[17:54] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  MonkeyDust i need to have a dynamic ip for this machine because its going to be moved around in different networks
[17:54] <BrainVirus> it essentially needs to be plug and play
[17:54] <qin> Devio: No idea then, set new (dummy) keyboard layout to see if it do not work well too.
[17:55] <Silowyi> is there any way from a kern oom log to figure out what is causing the server to go oom?
[17:55] <BluesKaj> sry prod___ din't see your earlier post
[17:55] <erle-> can root change the password of a user with an encrypted directory?
[17:55] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: You'll have to get WINS support working. Will this all be on the same network?  That the hostname needs to be resolvable?
[17:55] <qin> erle-: Yes
[17:55] <Graeleight> what's the best way to maintain a CLASSPATH? scripts at startup?
[17:55] <Dulak> erle-: yes the password for an account is seperate from the home dir, they are not related at all
[17:56] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  yes, it needs to be resolvable. I tried adding wins to the nsswitch.conf file to no avail
[17:56] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: does it need to be resolvable on multiple networks, or just the one you are connected to now?
[17:56] <erle-> Dulak, and how is the home dir decrypted then?
[17:56] <sparkle33> is there a configuration file to change the language of gnome? I dont have access to gdm and system>administration doesn't give me the option to
[17:57] <erle-> Dulak, isnt it decrypted at login with help of the login password?
[17:57] <beef-supreme> anyone on?
[17:57] <BrainVirus> EastDallas:  the one i have it on now.
[17:57] <tensorpudding> sparkle33: language support
[17:57] <Dulak> erle-: on login the password is checked, then used to decrpyt the home dir, then mounted where it's supposed to be
[17:57] <beef-supreme> does anyone use thunar?
[17:57] <WXZ> I have an external NTFS partition with a bunch of empty folders, and I can't delete them I keep getting "directory not empty" even with sudo rm -f -r /foo
[17:57] <Dulak> erle-: but the password for login is not kept in the encrypted volume
[17:58] <erle-> Dulak, but there must be a secret to protect the encrypted dir
[17:58] <EastDallas> OK, then it's probably do-able...
[17:58] <timposey> I am trying to get wvdial to work with a 3g modem on ubuntu 10.04 but ttyusb0 is not showing in /dev/ any ideas
[17:58] <erle-> Dulak, of course not, i didnt say anything like that
[17:58] <ericthegreat> hello
[17:59] <erle-> Dulak, if the users login password is not needed vor decryption, than root can decrypt any encrypted home dir
[17:59] <Silowyi> Is there any way from a kern.log with OOM Killer entries to figure out what is causing the server to go oom?
[17:59] <ericthegreat> i have tryed 5 billion things to start my windows partition (which messed up after grub was installed worked fine after ubuntu install)
[17:59] <rayvtirx> tensorpudding: fixed it despite exiting and logging back in with no luck, i typed source ~/.bashrc and color is back permanently it seems
[18:00] <ericthegreat> here is my boot info file I know /dev/sda1 is windows
[18:00] <ericthegreat> http://pastebin.com/C5qRfk7s
[18:00] <Dulak> erle-: yes, root is the superuser, it has all access, to everything.  How else would you fix things when they get borked
[18:00] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: I'm trying to find you step-by-step instrux...just a second.
[18:00] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: the thing that kills me is that it was working on a previous installation.
[18:00] <rayvtirx> damn no its not permanent lol
[18:00] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: thankyou so much
[18:01] <ericthegreat> if anyone could help me would be greatly appreciated I been at this for hours
[18:01] <erle-> Dulak, you should not be able to access an encrypted file without the secret
[18:01] <erle-> Dulak, they should not call in encryption then
[18:01] <Dulak> erle-: afaik the password is the secret, and root has access to that
[18:01] <WXZ> I have an external NTFS partition with a bunch of empty folders, and I can't delete them I keep getting "directory not empty" even with sudo rm -f -r /foo
[18:01] <erle-> why should he? and how?
[18:01] <sipior> erle-: root cannot decrypt the volume. root does not have access to passwords (only password hashes).
[18:02] <tensorpudding> rayvtirx: it would seem that your problem is that .bashrc isn't getting sourced
[18:02] <beef-supreme> does anyone here use THUNAR?
[18:02] <tase> helphelp! my windows are losing their containers! (title bar, edges)
[18:02] <tase> ubuntu 11.04 64b
[18:02] <erle-> sipior, how is the encryption worth anything then?
[18:02] <aeon-ltd> beef-supreme: have done
[18:02] <erle-> sipior, to protect against non-root-users no encryption is needed
[18:02] <beef-supreme> aeon-ltd, i can't seam to be able to mount parititons
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> tase:  you mean your 'window decoration' - perhaps due to compiz crashing.
[18:02] <galaxy_999> !anyone | beef-supreme
[18:03] <aeon-ltd> tase: metacity --replace (or compiz --replace) if you use compiz, that will return them but you might wan to find out whats crashing it
[18:03] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: are you able to navigate to samba shares on the ubuntu box from a windows box using hostname?
[18:03] <sipior> erle-: i just told you that root cannot decrypt the volume. what's the problem?
[18:03] <aeon-ltd> beef-supreme: do you have vol-man (volume manager?)
[18:03] <Dulak> erle-: yeah sipior is right, root can change the password, but you'd need to input the old one so it can decrpyt the volume and reencrypt the volume with the new password
[18:03] <erle-> sipior, sorry, i confused the two of you
[18:03] <beef-supreme> aeon-ltd, thunar-volman?
[18:03] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: i cant even ping the ubuntu box by hostname
[18:03] <sipior> erle-: of course, a root user can always start a keylogger, and get you to give them the password. not much to do against that.
[18:03] <aeon-ltd> beef-supreme: yeah
[18:03] <Dulak> erle-: i wasn't clear enough in my description of the login/decrpytion process
[18:03] <joshua__> can i ask a question?
[18:03] <Graeleight> join /#java
[18:03] <sipior> erle-: barring two-factor authentication, &cet.
[18:03] <beef-supreme> aeon-ltd, yes i do, but whenever i click a partition it says "authentification required"
[18:03] <aeon-ltd> joshua__: ask, don't ask to ask
[18:04] <erle-> Dulak, how is it implemented? is the user asked at login for both passwords?
[18:04] <ericthegreat> guess you guys are busy ill wait a bit
[18:04] <vcarney> anybody know how to connect Evolution to Exchange 2010???
[18:04] <aeon-ltd> beef-supreme: are they encrypted?
[18:04] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: Ping is TCP/IP.  hostnames are netbios
[18:04] <beef-supreme> aeon-ltd, nope
[18:04] <EastDallas> (wins)
[18:04] <tase> aeon-ltd, Dr_Willis, is there a crash log or anything I could check ?
[18:04] <joshua__> ok, i want to edit a file in my c drive but it says i must be the owner of the pc... BUT i am already the administrator so what do i do
[18:04] <aeon-ltd> beef-supreme: when you use 'sudo thunar' can you browse them fine? (btw don't delete or change anything when using sudo)
[18:05] <Dulak> erle-: the password is asked for once, it's hashed and matched to the password hash that root has access to, if it matches, the password is passed to the decrypt to be used as the secret.  root only has access to the hash, not the original password
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> joshua__:   Mount the drive with the proper permissions. or edit the file as the root user.
[18:05] <tensorpudding> joshua__: this is in ubuntu, trying to modify files on an ntfs volume?
[18:05] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: yes, but i should be able to ping the hostname. Unless you cant ping a linux box by hostname like you can a windows
[18:06] <joshua__> ok i will try, and i am the root user... and no in my file system... it is a sound file
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> joshua__:  assuming the filesystem is not mounted read only. You could do a  --> gksudo gedit /media/thediskname/path/to./the/file
[18:06] <tensorpudding> joshua__: try installing NTFS Configuration Tool from the software center
[18:06] <joshua__> ok thanks
[18:06] <Dulak> erle-: so root can change the login password, but without the original password, root cannot decrpyt the volume, since the hash of the password is not the password itself
[18:06] <tensorpudding> joshua__: this makes it easier to edit files on those volumes by regular users
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> joshua__:  every file is in a filesystem.. :)
[18:06] <vcarney> is there any Linux email client that will work with Exchange 2010?
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> !info ntfs-config
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> ntfs-confif also works with vfat
[18:07] <joshua__> ok, thanks, i am actually really new to ubuntu buuut I LOVE IT! lol
[18:07] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: you should be able to, but if ping is your only issue is it absolutely necessary that ping works for you.?
[18:07] <eiriksvin> whats a good DVD backup tool thats easy to use?
[18:07] <tase> Is there a way to resize title bar height in compizconfig ?
[18:07] <eiriksvin> I got a 1TB hdd in my ps3 and I want to put my fav DVDs on it :P
[18:08] <BrainVirus> EastDallas: thats not my only problem, i cant navigate to it.   i.e. https://sauron/ebox/ should pull up the ebox interface
[18:08] <sipior> eiriksvin: handbrake is pretty good
[18:08] <BrainVirus> but i get a server not found
[18:08] <eiriksvin> thanks, ill give it a try :P
[18:09] <ericthegreat> could anyone look over my boot info?
[18:09] <ericthegreat> I cannot boot windows
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> eiriksvin:  you mean video dvd -> some video file format?
[18:10] <BrainVirus> EastDallas dhclient.conf sets my host name to: "<hostname>" and when i change it to send sauron, it stilll doesnt work and it loses the changes i made after reboot.
[18:10] <EastDallas> BrainVirus: did you get my PM?
[18:10] <ericthegreat> http://pastebin.com/C5qRfk7s
[18:12] <timposey> how do I get a 3g usb modem to appear as ttyUSB0 in dev files
[18:12] <|Anthony|> any way to exclude a PCI address from system probing/recognition?
[18:12] <|Anthony|> I have an integrated video chip that compiz complains about

[18:14] <asmara> hi...............
[18:14] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, set your hostname in /etc/resolv.conf
[18:15] <ccta> how do you restart a tap interface
[18:15] <eiriksvin> is there a way to make .avi with handbrake?
[18:15] <BluesKaj> eiriksvin, you can with ffmpeg
[18:16] <ccta> or stop a tap interface
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> eiriksvin:  avi is just a container.  You can convert whatever handbreak does to avi if you really want to.. but i dont see much point in using avi these days
[18:16] <eiriksvin> well, I want to put it on my ps3
[18:17] <eiriksvin> thats why i want to backup
[18:17] <Dulak> eiriksvin: doesn't ps3 recognize mkv or mp4 formats?
[18:17] <Devio> qin: sorry for the delay, no nothing worked...
[18:18] <eiriksvin> idk, never tried it
[18:18] <BrainVirus> BluesKaj: whats the syntax for adding it there?
[18:18] <WXZ> I have an external NTFS partition with a bunch of empty folders, and I can't delete them I keep getting "directory not empty" even with sudo rm -f -r /foo
[18:18] <Dulak> eiriksvin: i prefer mp4 myself, file sizes are much smaller for comparable quality
[18:18] <Devio> qin: are there any shortcuts that would make things like this happen for any reason? if it's any significance, it's only my left control
[18:19] <BluesKaj> nameserver IP, BrainVirus
[18:19] <eiriksvin> well, I'll give it a test run on my harry potter
[18:20] <eiriksvin> my son loves that movie
[18:20] <eiriksvin> it puts it out as an m4v ?
[18:21] <ccta> anyway to restart a tap interface without restarting?
[18:21] <xirtam> strange stuff ... i installed netty and use gnome ...
[18:21] <guntbert> eiriksvin: please keep your contributions to support, and keep then on one line (don't press <enter> so often)
[18:22] <xirtam> when i set a theme gnome appears with this theme and sets it back to default after some seconds ...
[18:22] <BrainVirus> BluesKaj: would that require a static ip for the ubuntu box?
[18:22] <Dulak> eiriksvin: that's pretty close to an mp4 but it's an apple format, doubt the ps3 will recognize it natively, but you can convert to whatever format you need
[18:23] <Trfsrfr> Where do all of my windows go when I minimize them? And how do I get them to stay on the taskbar?
[18:23] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, it's the router IP
[18:23] <BrainVirus> okay
[18:24] <MaxVOBJ> !list
[18:24] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Use ubuntu classic instead of unity
[18:24] <BrainVirus> BluesKaj: i have the dns servers in there already.  <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:24] <edbian> Trfsrfr: (alt + tab ;) ;) )
[18:24] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, route in the terminal will give you the router IP
[18:25] <Dr_Willis> Trfsrfr:  if using the classic gnome type desktop - there should be a window list in the bottom panel. Unless you removed it.
[18:25] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I am. I changed it a couple weeks ago.
[18:25] <Guest40431> hi, having big touchpad issues my my natty 64bit sony vaio
[18:25] <beef-supreme> can anyone tell me where the execute session line is?
[18:25] <Guest40431> stops suddenly and then clicking does not work
[18:25] <edbian> Trfsrfr: ?  If you're using ubuntu classic then you should see your minimized windows in the panel just like windows xp / vista
[18:25] <Trfsrfr> edbian,  I wish that were the case.
[18:26] <Bisu[Shield]> how do you untar a file maintaining permissions and ownership?
[18:26] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, dhcp right ?
[18:26] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Right click the panel (I don't care which one) choose add to panel, add the window list applet   (this is gnome right?)
[18:27] <guntbert> ccta: I'm not familiar with tap interfaces but usually sudo ifconfig <interface> down   and then udo ifconfig <interface> up     should work
[18:27] <Trfsrfr> edbian, thanks again!
[18:27] <Trfsrfr> now I can see them.
[18:27] <edbian> Trfsrfr: worked I take it?  Awesome
[18:27] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, the first line is, nameserver 192.168.X.X (the router IP)
[18:28] <Dulak> Bisu[Shield]: use the --preserve flag to tar
[18:28] <Trfsrfr> edbian, that was making me nuts.
[18:28] <edbian> Trfsrfr: There ya go then :)
[18:28] <BrainVirus> BluesKaj: its search then our domain name
 lol
 didnt microsoft buy skype ?
 why does skype still have google chrome optional installer
[18:29] <Trfsrfr> edbian, next question - Im trying to download some video from my camera to a particular folder, but it says there isnt enough available space.
[18:29] <utnubu_> skype.net
[18:29] <Trfsrfr> but then it says I have 1115 gig left
[18:29] <guntbert> !ot | sarel2
[18:29] <Trfsrfr> sorry, 115
[18:30] <eiriksvin> hmm these rippers keep giving me errors
[18:30] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus, yeah, but make the first line , nameserver 192.168.X.X (the router IP ) that 'route' gives you
[18:30] <Trfsrfr> edbian,  how do I make space in that folder?
[18:30] <BrainVirus> BluesKaj: let me try it
[18:31] <Bisu[Shield]> for some reason tar --extract --same-owner --preserve-permissions ZendStudio-8.0.1-x86_64.tar.gz  is taking forever
[18:32] <Dulak> Bisu[Shield]: --preserve combines --same-owner and --preserve-permissions into 1 flag, but yeah it has to do extra work on the extract, chowning and chmodding every file after it's extracted, which is a lot more work
[18:32] <joshua__> i am the only user on my laptop and i have me as administrator... how can i make myself have higher rights, or the root user as i have heard
[18:33] <d3ngar_> Hi there! I seem to have messed up my GNOME on 11.04
[18:33] <yori> hi everyone
[18:33] <d3ngar_> I tried to install GNOME 3, but now I can't log-in at all anymore
[18:33] <Bisu[Shield]> k
[18:33] <Bisu[Shield]> i'll wait
[18:33] <d3ngar_> Basically the screen stays where it is
[18:33] <guntbert> !sudo | joshua__
[18:33] <tensorpudding> joshua__: when the computer asks for your password for administrative privileges, that means that you run that process as root
[18:33] <Dulak> joshua__: using sudo gives you root for whatever command you are running, root is disabled by default
[18:33] <Dr_Willis> joshua__:  you may want to read up on how ubuntu does ownership and permissions.   you should only need 'sudo' rights in special cases.
[18:33] <Dr_Willis> !permissions | joshua__
[18:33] <d3ngar_> Instead of loading GNOME, it just hangs
[18:34] <Mahmood> Hello Everyone :)
[18:34] <tensorpudding> joshua__: you don't want to, nor can you, be root all the time
[18:34] <Trfsrfr> Dr_Willis, thanks for your input as well.
[18:34] <joshua__> thanks, but i thought sudo was just on terminal how can i raise privilladges on the desktop enviroment
[18:35] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  gnome3 can break unity i hear. You may want to go to  the console and isntall some alternative window manager to use  untill you can figure out whats broken.
[18:35] <Dr_Willis> !gksudo | joshua__
[18:35] <d3ngar_> dr_Willis: thanks for the advise
[18:35] <tensorpudding> joshua__: when you run certain apps that require the privileges, they will ask for your password when necessary
[18:35] <d3ngar_> I do still have Unity, but it's not loading, nor is gnome3
[18:35] <Dr_Willis> if those aps are written right at least. :)
[18:35] <d3ngar_> should I try KDE?
[18:35] <d3ngar_> And how do i install KDE/
[18:35] <d3ngar_> And how do i install KDE?
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  try what you want. if yu just want somthing to get going thats small.. try icewm
[18:36] <tensorpudding> d3ngar_: you installed gnome 3 on 11.04? that probably broke unity
[18:36] <joshua__> ok thank you
[18:36] <edbian> Trfsrfr: What?  Space in a folder?
[18:36] <tensorpudding> d3ngar_: and there is no way to fix it
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  install 'kubuntu-desktop' for the full kde desktop
[18:36] <d3ngar_> It must be able to get fixed
[18:36] <d3ngar_> That unity stuff is horrible
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  theres lubuntu-desktop also for LXDE
[18:36] <galaxy_999> eiriksvin: 'k9copy' /looks/ nice but you'll have to pull in and make a home for all those bastard kde deps
[18:36] <tensorpudding> d3ngar_: you can't safely downgrade packages
[18:36] <eiriksvin> libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable. <- how do I fix that?
[18:36] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  i really dident find gnome3 that much better.
[18:36] <d3ngar_> yeah
[18:36] <Trfsrfr> edbian, Im trying to put some home video into a folder, but it says there isnt enough space. But i've got 115 gig of space unused
[18:37] <d3ngar_> I thought I try it
[18:37] <d3ngar_> But it worked briefly
[18:37] <KM0201> !dvd | eiriksvin
[18:37] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  i tried it on a live cd. :)
[18:37] <edbian> Trfsrfr: What does df -h think about your disc usage?
[18:37] <d3ngar_> So I try LXDE
[18:37] <edbian> Trfsrfr: First things first, empty your trash.
[18:37] <Dr_Willis> lxde is very useable these days
[18:37] <BluesKaj> BrainVirus,for static IP on a LAN : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html
[18:38] <galaxy_999> LXDE is *very* nice. pcmanfm on the other hand... not so much
[18:38] <d3ngar_> Dr_Willis: Could gdm be the issue?
[18:38] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I have 144gig available in /dev/sda2
[18:38] <Dr_Willis> not like its hard to change file managers. :) I like rox-filer but it takes some getting used to.
[18:38] <galaxy_999> and pcmanfm is what makes LXDE, LXDE
[18:38] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  try booting to console and use 'startx' perhaps
[18:38] <d3ngar_> I have installed GDM, but I undestand it doesn't use this anymore
[18:38] <edbian> Trfsrfr: According to what tool?
[18:38] <rww> d3ngar_: Ubuntu 11.04 uses gdm.
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> I hear in the next release gdm is to be replaced.
[18:39] <Trfsrfr> edbian,  according to df -h
[18:39] <rww> Dr_Willis: indeed, they're moving to LightDM
[18:39] <lindenle> Hi just rebooted my machine (natty) and logged back in to find the desktop upside down and all text mirrored....wtf!
[18:39] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Is /dev/sda2   your /  ?  Where is the folder you're trying to dump stuff into?  Maybe you can pastebin df -h  for me to see?
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> then all these people that want to change dm themes.. can be happy. :)
[18:39] <Koobilitoo> KM0201 !
[18:39] <edbian> lindenle: Your monitor is backwards
[18:40] <lindenle> edbian: was until I disabled the effects?
[18:40] <lindenle> edbian: (funny joke though)
[18:40] <edbian> lindenle: hehehe
[18:40] <d3ngar_> How could I restore the Unity desktop?
[18:40] <galaxy_999> Dr_Willis: i can understand the move. what happened to the dm they hacked together themselves?
[18:40] <d3ngar_> if I remove the meta package ubuntu-desktop could I just reinstall it?
[18:40] <Trfsrfr> edbian, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/616004/
[18:40] <lindenle> seriously this is just a pain (also at one point tried to use the nvidia driver which borked the whole system
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  i havent seen any guides out on fixing unity after trying to use gnome3
[18:41] <d3ngar_> :(
[18:41] <WXZ> I have an external NTFS partition with a bunch of empty folders, and I can't delete them I keep getting "directory not empty" even with sudo rm -f -r /foo
[18:41] <tensorpudding> d3ngar_: reinstall
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> d3ngar_:  a meta package dosent really do a lot
[18:41] <edbian> Trfsrfr: /host?  Is this wubi or something
[18:41] <d3ngar_> downgrading to gnome 2.3?
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  try removing some dir on the mountpoint.. not the mountpoint
[18:41] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I have no idea.
[18:41] <rkhshm> for performing a read/write stress test what would be considered and ideal file size for testing?
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> !info bonnie
[18:41] <edbian> Trfsrfr: You don't know if you're using wubi?
[18:41] <WILXX> does anyone know any other socks clients besides dante & tsocks?
[18:41] <Koobilitoo> u guys ned help hook up with Km he rocks
[18:41] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: I can't remove any directories inside the directory itself
[18:41] <lindenle> I am so close to going back to Debian
[18:42] <Koobilitoo> :5 STars for him!
[18:42] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I do have windows on this laptop as well...
[18:42] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Describe to me how you installed Ubuntu while I research
[18:42] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: wait, nevermind, I misunderstood
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:   well you dont normally rm /media/mountpoint/      cd into the mountpoint and rm a dir from there.
[18:42] <BluesKaj> eiriksvin, install libdvdccs2 to copy dvd without drm restrictions
[18:42] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I installed it from a live CD, alongside windows.
[18:42] <galaxy_999> +1 karma | lindenle
[18:42] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: I'm not trying to remove the mountpoint, I did cd into the mountpoint and rm the dir from there
[18:42] <WXZ> still didn't work
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  whats the exact command you are using.
[18:43] <Koobilitoo> I nominate KM
[18:43] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I installed it after windows
[18:43] <lindenle> galaxy_999: totally frustrated that ubuntu does this in non beta versions...
[18:43] <WXZ> (from the partition) sudo rm -f -r ca
[18:43] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Did you boot the live CD or put it in while windows was running?
[18:43] <Koobilitoo> Golden Pengus Award haha
[18:43] <WXZ> ca = the name of the folder I want to remove
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  i always do a rm -rf
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> never tried -f -r   that i can recall
[18:43] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I dont remember, it was awhile ago.
[18:43] <WXZ> I'll try that, don't know if it'll work though because I think it's semantically identical
[18:43] <edbian> Trfsrfr: can you pastebin sudo fdisk -l  ?
[18:44] <Trfsrfr> edb sure hold on
[18:44] <edbian> Trfsrfr: It is very strange that you don't have /dev/sda2 mounted at /   You don't have anything mounted at /
[18:44] <edbian> And what the heck is /dev/loop0  ?
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  whats the exact error message also.. could be somthing  trivial/obious wrong.. or could be the fs is read only
[18:44] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: nope, same exact errors
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  used for special  operations
[18:44] <edbian> Dr_Willis: such as?
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> !loop
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> !iso
[18:45] <edbian> I know what an iso is
[18:45] <Trfsrfr> edbian, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/616008/
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  did you notice the -o loop option it shows?
[18:45] <edbian> Dr_Willis: Why does he not have a /   ?
[18:45] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: rm: cannot remove directory `ca/path_of_some_child_directory': Directory not empty
[18:45] <edbian> Dr_Willis: yeah.
[18:45] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: for all the child directories
[18:45] <WXZ> same error message
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  thats.. weird..   try rmdir ?
[18:46] <edbian> Trfsrfr: I can tell this is a wubi install because fdisk -l only shows ntfs partitions (which are windows filesystems)
[18:46] <albech> hello all is there a way for manually having the system scan for attached usb devices? lsusb does not show my external harddrive and only after unplugging/plugging a few times will it show up.
[18:46] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: rmdir: failed to remove `ca~delete/': Directory not empty
[18:46] <ericthegreat> hello could anyone help me windows will not boot
[18:46] <new-one> okay, i have an issue installing ubuntu 11.04 on an inspiron 1100, mainly the display. i seen others with the issue, but no fixes. I am not familar enough to fix it on my own, can anyone help?
[18:46] <WXZ> I think it's corrupt
[18:46] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I would be more than happy to remove Windows :)
[18:46] <albech> ericthegreat, try installing ubuntu :p
[18:46] <xirtam> i face a strange thing in gnome. i set a theme, nautilus appears in this theme after starting gnome-desktop. after some seconds it changes back to the default-theme ...
[18:46] <Dulak> WXZ: you need to boot windows and chkdsk that partition, sounds like cross-linked files (ntfs in bad for this reason)
[18:46] <ericthegreat> i am on ubuntu
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:   i was thinkin that also. FS curruption..
[18:46] <ericthegreat> lol you guys
[18:46] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Well you can't with wubi.  How much space is your windows taking up??
[18:47] <ericthegreat> heres boot script
[18:47] <albech> ericthegreat, pastebin
[18:47] <Dr_Willis> WXZ:  it actually had a ~ in the file name?
[18:47] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Here is the thing.  Wubi thinks it has used 90Gb of 233Gb but I see no-where the usage of windows.  Perhaps wubi doesn't see the windows files on the partition it is on.
[18:47] <ericthegreat> i am
[18:47] <ericthegreat> http://pastebin.com/C5qRfk7s
[18:47] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I dont know. Im way new to this.
[18:47] <Canageek> How hard is it to switch ubuntu to KDE? I'm using Maveric if that makes a diffrence
[18:47] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Is it possible that 90Gb + Windows Space = 250Gb?
[18:47] <WXZ> Dr_Willis: no, it was ca at first then I renamed it to "ca~delete"
[18:47] <ericthegreat> sda1 is windows
[18:48] <Canageek> and have been avoiding updating as I don't want to deal with Unity before it is finished
[18:48] <edbian> Canageek: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[18:48] <d3ngar_> I think there is more problems:
[18:48] <ericthegreat> although it does not say it
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> Canageek:  install kubuntu-desktop package.. select kde at the login screen..
[18:48] <galaxy_999> lindenle: being that this is #ubuntu, i shall refrain from comments lest i head down the path to trolldom
[18:48] <d3ngar_> not all packages were updated to gnome3
[18:48] <Canageek> That is it? Nice
[18:48] <d3ngar_> There should be a way to do that now, no?
[18:48] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I suppose that is possible.
[18:48] <Dulak> Canageek: it's easy, install kubuntu-desktop and it'll have a kde session option at login
[18:48] <tomreyn> new-one: you have not actually explained what this issue is about.
[18:48] <ericthegreat> grub did this btw
[18:48] <lindenle> galaxy_999: yeah ... see you on #debian
[18:48] <Canageek> Can I go back to gnome if there is a problem?
[18:48] <ericthegreat> worked fine after linux install
[18:48] <edbian> Trfsrfr: I think that is the case.  How much data do you have stored in windows?  You have 90Gb stored in Ubuntu (that's a ton!)
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> Canageek:  at login screen.. select the desktop to use
[18:48] <ericthegreat> brb
[18:48] <Canageek> As I have to run gnome in fallback-mode for some reason
[18:49] <edbian> Trfsrfr: I have 1 80Gb hdd and it is only 50% full ;)
[18:49] <g0rby> If my xserver loads the intel graphics module, is there any need for it to load vesa as well? Im trying to troubleshoot slow video performance on a samsung n145 plus
[18:49] <new-one> currently the resolution is low, and it is not detecting the display correctly. the screen is in the upper left corner, and flickers alot, though usableish... and a copy of the screen is below the original. this did not happen during install but after it is running on the system, it is doing it during bootup
[18:49] <Dr_Willis> You could install lubuntu,xubuntu,kubuntu,ubuntu,-desktop   if you wanted all 4 :) there may be others i dont recall..
[18:49] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I do have a lot of video and pics. That is part of my job so...
[18:49] <Dulak> Canageek: yes it's just a session option on the login screen, you can choose kde, gnome, whatever is installed
[18:49] <Canageek> sweet
[18:50] <edbian> Trfsrfr: That is the problem.  You filled the drive using windows and wubi combined.
[18:50]  * Canageek breifly considers fluxbox
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> I recall xbmc or boxee installing its own session to the login screen also.
[18:50] <Trfsrfr> edbian, so why cant I remove windows?
[18:50] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[18:50] <ericthegreat> good evening
[18:51] <ericthegreat> anyone look at my boot script http://pastebin.com/C5qRfk7s
[18:52] <ericthegreat> i think I installed grub to sda1 (windows)
[18:52] <new-one> i am not sure how else to explain it
[18:52] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Well the way you have things right now.  (the wubi install).  Ubuntu is not on its' own partition.  It is in a file located on the windows partition.  IF you deleted windows (deleted the partition) you'd delete Ubuntu as well.  There are ways to migrate wubi to its' own partition.  I recommend saving your personal files (Ubuntu's /home/you folder and windows personal files) on some external drive.  Erase the drive you have now, install U
[18:52] <edbian> buntu (alone) on it.  Move the personal files into the new Ubuntu install.  This would free up tons of space (probably) and get rid of windows for good.
[18:52] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Of course I suggest that though.  I love linux!! :P
[18:52] <new-one> but i had no problems with 10.04
[18:53] <edbian> The method I suggested is NOT migrating wubi.  It is simply backing up and re-installing.  Migrating wubi will probably bring a whole slew of new problems :)
[18:53] <g0rby> Is it ok for xserver to load vesa as well as intel graphics modules? It looks like it does in Xorg.0.log and im trying to troubleshoot poor video performance
[18:53] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I fell in love with Ubuntu at first sight, so...I guess I will save everything elsewhere and delete windows and reinstall Ubuntu.
[18:53] <ericthegreat> ok guess I will come back when you guys less busy
[18:53] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Another option, start deleting stuff and make room.
[18:54] <ericthegreat> hate to be a bsterd I love Ubuntu but make sure there are no programs ect you need windows for
[18:54] <g0rby> guess ill disable it and see what happens ^^
[18:54] <ericthegreat> wine is not 100%
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> grub normally goes to sda  not sda1
[18:54] <edbian> ericthegreat: What you need help with?
[18:54] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I just figured out how to make the one windows program I cannot live without run in Ubuntu, so I really dont need Windows anymore...
[18:54] <ericthegreat> I cannot boot windows
[18:54] <edbian> Trfsrfr: Great!  I encourage moving away from windows.  (I am biased though :) )
[18:54] <ericthegreat> after I got grub
[18:55] <tomreyn> new-one: have you tried this? https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+question/154469#comment-5
[18:55] <edbian> ericthegreat: sudo update-grub    ?
[18:55] <ericthegreat> nope
[18:55] <edbian> ericthegreat: sudo update-grub2   ?
[18:55] <ericthegreat> windows seems screwed

[18:55] <Trfsrfr> edbian, I am not a big fan of having to 'check-in' with Microsoft everytime I want to do something, and pay this or pay that...
[18:55] <ericthegreat> edbian here is my boot script file http://pastebin.com/C5qRfk7s
[18:55] <ThisIsNotAnID> Hi all, I'm new to Ubuntu and this chat forum. I needed help with a little something concerning my WUBI install
[18:56] <edbian> Trfsrfr: I have been using linux and only linux for about 2 years now.
[18:56] <Trfsrfr> edbian, man I wish I had that amount of time into it. I hate not knowing my way around.
[18:57] <dalimun> slitaz running well on vbox but not with ttylinux & dsl
[18:57] <Ball> Yo can someone help me
[18:57] <edbian> ericthegreat: Ummm, don't kill the messenger.  It appears you don't have windows partition here.
[18:57] <remoteCTRL1> does any of you surf anonymously lately?
[18:57] <Trfsrfr> edbian, is there a real good book, or other source of info that you can recommend to help me get to where you are?
[18:57] <edbian> ericthegreat: Can you pastebin sudo fdisk -l for me to confirm??
[18:57] <ericthegreat> yea 1 sec
[18:57] <roasted> Question - I have Ubuntu 11.04 running with Unity, but I have dual screen with my right monitor being my main. Total PITA with Unity. I heard they were going to implement functionality to put the Unity bar on the right monitor if you want it. Does anybody know if this has been added yet?
[18:57] <g0rby> where does xserver config live these days?
[18:57] <galaxy_999> Ball: !ask
[18:57] <galaxy_999> !ask | ball
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> g0rby:  x auto configures for the most part. it does use the old xorg.conf if it exitsts
[18:58] <edbian> Trfsrfr: I did not read any books.  I am not that good.  I just fiddle with it a lot and look up tutorials and things in the Internet.  Additionally helping people on IRC (once I was able to) is great practice because of the variety of problems
[18:58] <Beltaine> Is it possible to make Update Manager / apt default to FTP protocol instead of HTTP?
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  yea. i was thinking that also.. looks like windows is gone..
[18:58] <edbian> Dr_Willis: :/
[18:58] <Dulak> ericthegreat: you borked something hard man, it doesn't even think you have a windows partition, and it lists 3 partitions that are all the exact same partition
[18:58] <Ball> Okay, i installed ubuntu 11.04 whilst in windows. After it installed it restarted and was verifying the install. It says 'no root file system is defined' and tells me to do somthing with the partition manager, but im not sure what.
[18:58] <Trfsrfr> edbian, well then that is encouraging to me.
[18:58] <edbian> I would be getting that feeling in my stomach right about now.  Accidentally deleting an operating system is a big oops
[18:58] <Pici> Beltaine: Default? Whats wrong with changing the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list manually?
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  im still not sure how he generated that outptut. :) or why grub is on sda1 not sda
[18:59] <yassine_hell_> hey, anyone know a good mp3 player? like aimp in windows, small and simple GUI, i wanted to download XMMS but the site is temporary down
[18:59] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  did that once when they had the hda -> sda  change. :09
[18:59] <edbian> Trfsrfr: :)  I don't know that much.  I think it appears that I know a lot when I know just slightly more than you.
[18:59] <g0rby> Dr_Willis: is there a way i can stop it loading the vesa module with the autoconfig?
[18:59] <edbian> Dr_Willis: I think it means the portion of grub that sits in /boot/grub is located on all partitions
[18:59] <edbian> Dr_Willis: :/  Sorry to hear!
[18:59] <trism> yassine_hell_: audacious?
[18:59] <ericthegreat> edbian my right click does not work in ubuntu it seems
[19:00] <BedMan> yassine_hell_: xmms is a good choice - try to find a mirror of it...
[19:00] <ericthegreat> ...
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> g0rby:  never noticed or needed to.
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> !xmms
[19:00] <new-one> tomreyn that option was not found in my bios... i received the system used and there is an administration password in the bios, so i am not able to change anything. i have not found a way to fix this, and i have not looked yet
[19:00] <Beltaine> Pici: Didn't know where or how to do that :)
[19:00] <edbian> ericthegreat: sorry :( :(
[19:00] <ericthegreat> there another way to copy from terminal?
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> xmms is out of date. try others..
[19:00] <edbian> ericthegreat: right click and copy or shift + ctrl + C
[19:00] <pythonirc1011> I just installed xvideo ati drivers and rebooted my machine, but it doesnt seem the ATI drivers are in effect. I've a radeon 5850. How can I configure ubuntu to start using it?
[19:00] <ericthegreat> why you saying sorry lol?
[19:00] <ericthegreat> ok
[19:00] <g0rby> Dr_Willis: Im just troubleshooting poor video performance on my samsung n145 and wondering why its loading vesa as well as intel and if that might be affecting performance
[19:00] <edbian> ericthegreat: Cause windows has been [accidentally] deleted
[19:01] <yassine_hell_> trism audacious looks...big -_- ..
[19:01] <Ball> Okay, i installed ubuntu 11.04 whilst in windows. After it installed it restarted and was verifying the install. It says 'no root file system is defined' and tells me to do somthing with the partition manager, but im not sure what.
[19:01] <new-one> but as far as the option to change the crt/lcd option, i did not find it tomreyn
[19:01] <yassine_hell_> BedMan ok im on it
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> g0rby:  it nomally goes down the list  i dont think it affects anything
[19:01] <ericthegreat> edbian it worked fine after I installed ubuntu
[19:01] <edbian> ericthegreat: windows did?  Can you pastebin sudo fdisk -l   ?
[19:01] <ericthegreat> stopped working after I installed grub
[19:02] <edbian> ericthegreat: Can you pastebin that command please?  I'm not asking again
[19:02] <ericthegreat> http://pastebin.com/0cEEHYVb
[19:02] <pythonirc1011> anyone has configured a ATI Radeon 58xx series on ubuntu here?
[19:03] <tomreyn> new-one: can you paste the output of this command to a pastebin, please? lspci -knnv | grep -FA10 VGA
[19:03] <roasted> Question - I have Ubuntu 11.04 running with Unity, but I have dual screen with my right monitor being my main. Total PITA with Unity. I heard they were going to implement functionality to put the Unity bar on the right monitor if you want it. Does anybody know if this has been added yet?
[19:03] <edbian> ericthegreat: there is no windows partition listed here.  What is strange though is that you have 3 partitions with the exact same start and end numbers.  I  don't know what that means.
[19:03] <ericthegreat> yea its weird
[19:03] <edbian> ericthegreat: What does gparted think of your hdd?
[19:04] <ericthegreat> completely unalocated
[19:04] <edbian> ericthegreat: what?
[19:04] <ericthegreat> but I am on ubuntu right now lol
[19:04] <ericthegreat> yea lol wtf
[19:04] <pythonirc1011> anyone has any comments on ati drives on ubuntu?
[19:04] <edbian> ericthegreat: Your partition table is messed up.  I can't say for sure what is going on
[19:04] <edbian> ericthegreat: It is possible windows is still there somewhere.  I have no idea how to rectify your problem.
[19:04] <ericthegreat> I can boot to ubuntu 50% of the time the other half black screen
[19:04] <Steven_Lau> SOS!! My Ubuntu 9.10 can't boot after i complier and make install the glibc 2.11.
[19:04] <Steven_Lau> What can i do?
[19:05] <ericthegreat> ok ty guess I will come back later ty for trying
[19:05] <kdbwnf> Hi. I have enabled edge scrolling but it still doesn't work. can you help me?
[19:05] <edbian> ericthegreat: Look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery   under the 'Lost Partition heading'  What you're doing is risky business.
[19:05] <lotuspsychje> in wich dir files download with pan if the drive is unmounted?
[19:07] <new-one> tomreyn http://pastebin.com/SKv7FR9B

[19:07] <pythonirc1011> can i use dist-upgrade on any machine without any worries?
[19:08] <Steven_Lau>  My Ubuntu 9.10 can't bootable after i compile and make install the glibc 2.11. Can anybody help me?
[19:12] <ricardo> hello
[19:12] <comm_> I tried to share a folder using samba by placing the a file with my share in  the /var/lib/samba/usershares/ folder however when I go the folder in the gui, it isn't listed as being shared... any idea why?
[19:12] <beef-supreme> anyone here use lxde?
[19:13] <grendal-prime> isnt there a single flash animation creation tool for linux?
[19:13] <comm_> beef-supreme, I have a little...
[19:13] <beef-supreme> comm_, you used it in the past?
[19:13] <musex> hi everyone
[19:13] <pierpaolo> hi
[19:14] <Steven_Lau> Recently,In order to learn the android kernel dev and it need use Glibc2.11.But Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't suported the Glibc2.11,it only suport Glibc2.10
[19:14] <comm_> beef-supreme, I had a computer come with it installed and I used it for a bit while I prepared a new version of ubuntu running gnome
[19:14] <comm_> :)
[19:14] <beef-supreme> comm_, i don't like gnome, i used openbox for most of my linux life
[19:14] <beef-supreme> comm_, but for some reason i have problems with my openbox environment
[19:15] <new-one> did you get that tomreyn?
[19:15] <aacharya> hey guys, where is xorg.conf in natty?
[19:15] <ricardo> Please, [ I am under Ubuntu 11.04 ] the tab Battery of gnome-power-manager don't appear
[19:15] <beef-supreme> comm_, so i thought i'd search for another
[19:15] <musex> openbox is lightweight bur gnome is a complete desktop environment
[19:15] <beef-supreme> aacharya, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[19:15] <beef-supreme> musex, what's openbox missing
[19:15] <tomreyn> new-one: you've got an ultra low-end GPU there which is known to cause problems and which Ubuntu-X/Canonical-X does not seem to intend to fix bugs for. i'd suggest you upgrade your BIOS and don't use compiz, so either use the legacy/classic gnome desktop without effects or unity-2d.
[19:15] <Steven_Lau> so i download Glibc2.11 from ubuntu.com. And I configure,make ,make check.Every thing is ok,until I run make install command.
[19:16] <beef-supreme> aacharya, use "sudo find / -name *insert keyword here*"
[19:16] <aacharya> beef-supreme: i don't see it there (actually, find / -name "x*conf" doesn't find anything either).  does x autoconfigurate itself these days?
[19:16] <beef-supreme> aacharya, what video card do you use?
[19:17] <aacharya> beef-supreme: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller
[19:17] <oCean> Steven_Lau: you downloaded what from where? Ubuntu works with software repositories, building from source is not necessary
[19:17] <beef-supreme> aacharya, no idea then
[19:17] <new-one> legacy/classic gnome desktop is not an issue with me, i am use to it. and what do i do about compiz? do i apt-get remove? and how would i install unity-2d. never used unity before
[19:18] <Pici> Steven_Lau: You shouln't install a different version of glibc that differs from the one that comes with it. Lots of things will break.
[19:18] <new-one> legacy/classic gnome desktop is not an issue with me, i am use to it. and what do i do about compiz? do i apt-get remove? and how would i install unity-2d. never used unity before. forgot to put tomreyn in the message... sorry
[19:19] <Steven_Lau> After the make install comand,ervery program can't executable.  I can't execute make uninstall or make clean command.  So I shutdown my computer.  And it can't bootable now.  Can anyone help me please! I dont whant to reinstall the OS.
[19:19] <aacharya> anyone know how natty does x configuration by default? i don't see any xorg.conf on my system
[19:19] <oCean> Steven_Lau: see our previous messages. You should not use a different version, and certainly not building a new one
[19:19] <Pici> Steven_Lau: You'll likely need to reinstall. libc6 is an essential part of your operating system and trying to replace it wwill cause issues.
[19:20] <Pici> Steven_Lau: Secondly, Ubuntu 9.10 is no longer supported, you should be using a newer release.
[19:20] <ricardo>  Please, [ I am under Ubuntu 11.04 ] the tab Battery of gnome-power-manager don't appear
[19:20] <tomreyn> new-one: if you select the classic gnome desktop _without effects_ while logging in (should be the last option, i think, then compiz is already disabled.
[19:21] <new-one> tomreyn: well, the login screen looks like this too, it is before i login that the screen gets messed up
[19:21] <pstewart> aacharya: you might be able to generate an xorg.conf with: sudo Xorg -configure
[19:21] <Dr_Willis> new-one:  unity2d is just a package you install. dont worry about removing  compiz
[19:22] <new-one> tomreyn: sorry for my ignorance, i am kinda new...
[19:22] <Dr_Willis> !info unity-2d
[19:22] <ricardo> Please, [ I am under Ubuntu 11.04 ] the tab Battery of gnome-power-manager don't appear
[19:22] <new-one> Dr_Willis: thanks
[19:22] <aacharya> pstewart: ah, cool.  do you have any idea how x is starting now? last time i used linux, having an xorg.conf file was mandatory..
[19:22] <ricardo> Please, [ I am under Ubuntu 11.04 ] the tab Battery of gnome-power-manager don't appear
[19:22] <Dr_Willis> unity-2d is lacking some features compared to the normal unity
[19:23] <guntbert> !repeat | ricardo
[19:23] <pstewart> aacharya: it uses an autoconfiguration
[19:24] <pstewart> aacharya: but if you generate an xorg.conf and modify it, it will override the autoconf
[19:24] <aacharya> pstewart: i see, thank you.  is there a way to selectively override the autoconf for specific sections?
[19:24] <tomreyn> new-one: okay then it's actually an issue with the graphics driver. Make sure you have at least BIOS version A32 (it should say on the bottom of your screen when you power on your computer, press the pause key to see the text for longer, then any other key to resume) as per http://ln-s.net/8s8C
[19:25] <Jordan_U> aacharya: Yes. You write only those sections in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
[19:25] <aacharya> awesome
[19:25] <aacharya> Jordan_U: thanks a bunch
[19:25] <aacharya> pstewart: thank you as well
[19:25] <new-one> tomreyn: ok, thank you, i will check it out, and come back here if i have any other issues...
[19:26] <tomreyn> new-one: while a BIOS update can help, i'm not saying this will actually fix this issue. You need to find out why your Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device [8086:2562] (rev 03) does not work well with Ubuntu 11.04.
[19:26] <tomreyn> new-one: i'm afraid i need to run right now :-/
[19:27] <motaka2> I cant make Hp 1102 work on ubuntu 8.04 , should I sucide?
[19:27] <tomreyn> new-one: surely this hardware is very dated and was never too well supported (nor is it a great piece of hardware).
[19:27] <H3tw3rkt> or upgrade
[19:27] <edbian> motaka2: probably suicide is overkill   (forgive the pun)
[19:27] <Steven_Lau> is there have other ways except reinstall ? eg. Can i copy the lib dir from a good computer to the bad system to repair this problem?
[19:28] <new-one> tomreyn: yea, it is an old laptop, just trying to suck as much life out of it as i can
[19:28] <motaka2> edbian: do u know of a way to meke it work ?
[19:28] <sw0rdfish> what is the best cli web browser?
[19:28] <new-one> tomreyn: thanks anyway
[19:28] <edbian> !best
[19:29] <edbian> sw0rdfish: lynx
[19:29] <Pici> sw0rdfish: Its up to you to choose, but links2, lynx, and w3m are rather popular.
[19:29] <sw0rdfish> hmmmmm
[19:29] <sw0rdfish> all are feature-rich?
[19:29] <Pici> sw0rdfish: w3m is installed by default on an Ubuntu Server install.
[19:29] <sw0rdfish> oh nice
[19:29] <sw0rdfish> i'll try out w3m then
[19:29] <motaka2> Can anyone help me install hp 1102 printer on ubuntu ?
[19:30] <sw0rdfish> wait link2 displays pictures, haha, i'll get that one :)
[19:31] <Dinosaurus> hjiya
[19:31] <Dinosaurus> how can i list my wifi interfaces
[19:31] <Smashcat> hi - is there any way to find out which package contains a library? (zlib in this case)
[19:31] <bindi> Dinosaurus: iwconfig
[19:32] <Dinosaurus> you're a genius bindi
[19:33] <ShermanBoyd> after installing natty server x86_64 I get a blinking arange cursor ... I can login with a ctrl-alt-F1 ... but what's all this?
[19:34] <ShermanBoyd> I guess I can look at it as an awesome physical security measure
[19:34] <Pici> Smashcat: apt-cache search, apt-file search, most of the time the packages are in lib$something format.  You're probably looking for zlibc, or if you're compiling something: zlib1g-dev
[19:35] <AaronCampbell> I installed and am trying to use PHPUnit.  However, it seems to be missing the CodeCoverage component because it keeps trying to include PHP/CodeCoverage/Filter.php and the CodeCoverage directory doesn't exist.  Does anyone know if there's another package I need (I can't seem to find it)
[19:35] <ShermanBoyd> I installed the "Basic Server" package ... hopefully that doesn't include x-windows
[19:36] <crux000> AaronCampbell: I'm not a PHP person, but you can search packages.ubuntu.com by path/filename...
[19:36] <fission6> i am trying to compile something which needs libevent, locate libevent shows results but i still get, gevent/libevent.h:9: fatal error: event.h: No such file or directory
[19:36] <Pici> fission6: you usually need the -dev packages when compiling things from source. In this case: libevent-dev
[19:37] <fission6> right i think that is indeed the issue thanks Pici
[19:37] <smittix> Hi all, Im using the propriety ATI Driver and still moving a window is terribly choppy.
[19:37] <Smashcat> Pici: Thanks - searching for libz or zlib gives hundreds of options so i just did this : apt-cache search libz | awk '{print "apt-get install " $1} | /bin/sh
[19:38] <Pici> Smashcat: Er. I wouldn't do that if I were you.  Often packages will replace one another, and you could put your system in an unusable state doing so.
[19:38] <crux000> My problem, if anyone's paying attention / has better googlefu than me: My system behaves very badly (applications, sometimes the whole desktop, randomly freeze for 5-60+ seconds) while doing heavy IO on USB devices.
[19:38] <Smashcat> Pici : Just figured at least one of those should include the lib ;-)
[19:39] <mari00> hey all, i seemed to have crashed my system during an upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04
[19:39] <motaka2> Can anyone help me install hp 1102 printer on ubuntu ?
[19:40] <Daremonai> hello, i want to do video on demand streaming on ubuntu, how can i do that?
[19:40] <cannonball> mari00: I had a crashed upgrade that I had to work through, can you describe yours?  If it's similar to mine, the fix was easy.
[19:40] <silver_hook> Is there an elegant solution to the rt3090 driver problem?
[19:40] <mari00> the computer froze.  i had to restart and now it wont boot.  something about the drive not being mounted.  i get an error ono boot that says "cannot read ´etc/udev_rules.d/z80_user.rules´
[19:41] <mari00> then it says also, init: udevtrigger main proccess (438) terminted with status 1, and so on and son on
[19:41] <mari00> when i boot into windows (the machine is dual-boot) it cannot load the shared drive which was mounted on /home in ubuntu
[19:42] <mari00> or shared partition rather
[19:42] <cannonball> mari00: Sounds similar.  In my case, if I let it sit for about 4 minutes, it actually did boot up properly.  How long did you wait?  Was there a lot of harddrive activity? If you didn't let it finish it's fsck, you're stopping it early.
[19:43] <chinnappan> how to give full permission  on NTFS hardisk
[19:43] <motaka2> no one cant help me?
[19:43] <mari00> let it sit over night.  i still cannot boot in.  i am getting the same errors.
[19:43] <mari00> i am very close to just running a fresh install...
[19:43] <chinnappan> how to give full permission  on NTFS hardisk
[19:43] <mgolisch> chinnappan: youll need ntfs-3g for write support, but that should be installed by default on ubuntu, on desktop editions atleast
[19:43] <tacomaster> i get the first part of this command but can someone explain what is going on after output.txt "modprobe > output.txt 2>&1
[19:44] <marvindoppelt> motaka2, what have you tried so far?
[19:44] <cannonball> mari00: Your best bet is to boot the livecd, mount the partitioni someplace such as /mnt/root, chroot to it, then finish the yum installation.
[19:44] <cannonball> errr, apt-get installation.
