[15:51] <g_0_0> bindi, ah :)
[15:51] <ZacLnxNewb> Viper92Z-Linux:  sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[15:51] <nemetos> oh the joy of installing a printer without any avaiable drivers..
[15:51] <Viper92Z-Linux> ZacLnxNewb, done!
[15:51] <smiley7> and it dont do it with windows
[15:52] <Viper92Z-Linux> ZacLnxNewb, I want to make the server home and certain shared folders that's my question
[15:52] <kexcaliber380864> g
[15:52] <smiley7> so it must be uploading or downloading somthing
[15:52] <schnuffle1> !samba | Viper92Z-Linux
[15:52] <ZacLnxNewb> Viper92Z-Linux:  You can do that by assigning sharing permission to the folders/directories you wish
[15:53] <smiley7> any ideas ?
[15:53] <ZacLnxNewb> Viper92Z-Linux: On the machine itself, you can dictate users and permissions, and you can login remotely and view/download/upload to the file tree with the client
[15:54] <dersew> salve
[15:54] <brandoney> I also get avg85flx isn't available for this type of computer, but it listed it as installed before clicking uninstall.
[15:54] <smiley7> i wish ubuntu had a netstat command
[15:54] <schnuffle1> smiley7: it has
[15:54] <llutz_> smiley7: apt-get install netstat
[15:55] <smiley7> cool
[15:55] <llutz_> smiley7: apt-cache search <pattern>
[15:55] <m_fulder> aha will try that on schnuffle1 & bastidrazor
[15:55] <smiley7> whats that last command?
[15:55] <wolfpack> Dr_Willis: After hard restart .. thinks are working properly.
[15:55] <llutz_> smiley7: to search for stuff
[15:56] <llutz_> smiley7: apt-cache search netstat                instead of "i wish ubuntu had netstat" :)
[15:56] <m_fulder>  schnuffle1 & bastidrazor, still closed :S
[15:57] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: not realy shure what you want to do but you can use nohup to ignore signals
[15:57] <smiley7> i have had the browser open all morning...so when i close it,its really going to start uploading,or downloading.
[15:58] <erUSUL> isn't netstat installed by default ?
[15:58] <jrib> erUSUL: that's what I thought
[15:59] <g_0_0> erUSUL, yes it's installed by default
[15:59] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: where do you press crtl-c ? when te gnome-terminal has the focus?
[16:00] <erUSUL> was more of a retoric question but thanks g_0_0
[16:00] <erUSUL> :)
[16:03] <WierdAAR> hey guys. I can't seem to get any fullscreen to work. It's a fresh install, so nothing should be messed up.
[16:04] <edbian> I have 2 CD drives, what should my /etc/fstab look like and what should my media folder look like?
[16:05] <smiley7> well the netstat command is just showing nonsense
[16:05] <Elgar1> Hi, I'm jolicloud and would like some help with wine, please?
[16:05] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  yes when the gnome-terminal has the focus I precc ctr+c
[16:06] <smiley7> its not showing any websites or ip addresses
[16:06] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: okay, let me test something
[16:06] <llutz_> smiley7: read " man netstat " for options
[16:06] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  oki :
[16:06] <jrib> Elgar1: jolicloud isn't supported here, try their channel/forums.  For wine-specific help, there is #winehq

[16:07] <rufsketch1> Hello everyon, I tried to install grub from live-cd using grub-install
[16:07] <matteo646548>  !lista
[16:07] <Elgar1> they dont have one,ok?
[16:07] <jrib> Elgar1: ok, but we don't support it here
[16:07] <jrib> Elgar1: here: http://www.jolicloud.com/support
[16:07] <Elgar1> I'm sure its essentially the same just with a GUI
[16:08] <Elgar1> different GUI
[16:08] <rufsketch1> Hello everyone. I tried to install grub from livecd using grub install. It sort of worked, in that I now have a grub terminal when I boot, but it doesn't give me any systems to boot into. what did I miss?
[16:08] <gpc> Elgar1: We are sure we don't support jolicloud. use the support options provided at the link jrib gave you.
[16:09] <WierdAAR> Does anybody have any idea why nothing work in fullscreen on my computer?
[16:09] <smiley7> anyone know how to remove the envelope icon beside the clock?
[16:09] <gpc> smiley7: right click and remove it
[16:09] <jrib> Elgar1: and there is a #jolicloud...
[16:09] <Elgar1> dude, do you know what jolicloud support is like? I dont use that and never will cause I'll never get ar reply.
[16:09] <hellguard64> ubuntu 10.10 can't connect to wi-fi
[16:09] <Dr_Willis> smiley7:  that will remove the notification icon tray - you will lose the volme icon also
[16:10] <rufsketch1> can anyone help?
[16:10] <rufsketch1> I'm really at a loss
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> Elgar1:  Jolicloud has 'issues' :) ive tried it..
[16:10] <smiley7> damn,i just did...well i guess i will put it back...
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  you folloded the grub reinstall guides?
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> !fixgrub
[16:11] <Elgar1> @willis hmmm?
[16:11] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I tried that one but it wasn't working for me at all
[16:12] <rufsketch1> grub-install doesn't take two mountpoints as a valid argument
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  the guides ive seen have about 5 differnt ways to reinstall grub - depening on th eexacxt issue.
[16:12] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I'm going to try that once more in case I made a mistake, and let you know
[16:13] <Dr_Willis> it pays to read up and learn grub2-kungfu skills :)
[16:13] <smiley7> linux mint dont have the envelope icon...but still does have the volume icon
[16:13] <Elgar1> wow, no replies at #jolicloud, can someone please get over their self and help?
[16:13] <Dr_Willis> smiley7:  thers some pacakge you can remove to totally remove it.. but  i dont bother
[16:13] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: haha. I wish I had the time. I'm taking 9 classes this semester. And I'm not exagerating -_-
[16:14] <Dr_Willis> Elgar1:  Jolicloud has forums also. but last i checked their fiorums were not that heavly populated either.
[16:14] <gpc> Elgar1: if jolicloud can't support their OS what makes you think we can. We do not support it. Please stop asking.
[16:14] <kaddi> is ubuntu using the ntfs fuse driver or the native kernel module for ntfs by default? For example when i do a sudo mount -t ntfsd /dev/sda2 /media/win
[16:14] <Dr_Willis> kaddi:  its using ntfs-3g
[16:14] <kaddi> ah, k
[16:14] <tehbaut> DVD Movie Backup isn't picking up my optical drive... any ideas why?
[16:14] <bazhang> tehbaut, what s the software
[16:14] <Elgar1> forget I managed jolicloud, please walk me through steps as if I was using ubuntu, Please.
[16:15] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: what does your script do?
[16:15] <rufsketch1> tehbaut: does k3b pick it up?
[16:15] <bazhang> Elgar1, for wine?
[16:15] <Elgar1> yes.
[16:15] <Dr_Willis> Elgar1:  fire up the package manager, install wine.. there ya go.
[16:15] <bazhang> Elgar1, #winehq after checking the appdb
[16:15] <bazhang> !appdb > Elgar1
[16:15] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  it starts up a dedicated server
[16:15] <tehbaut> bazhang: DVD Movie Backup is the software
[16:15] <Elgar1> @ubottu sure
[16:16] <bazhang> tehbaut, what is the package name
[16:16] <tehbaut> rufsketch1: is that something else I have to install?
[16:16] <bazhang> tehbaut, this is from the ubuntu repos?
[16:16] <tehbaut> bazhang: no idea, I got it from the software installer
[16:16] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: wouldn't it be better to write a upstart script to start the daemon?
[16:16] <rufsketch1> tehbaut: k3b is program that can create backups of discs. I just wanted to know if it recognized your optical drive.
[16:16] <tehbaut> bazhang: Ubuntu Software Center
[16:16] <rufsketch1> if it does, then it might be a bug in the program you mentioned
[16:16] <smiley7> im just running out of room on the tray
[16:16] <bazhang> tehbaut, then try something else, I personally find ogmrip to be very good
[16:16] <tehbaut> rufsketch1: I never instealled it, is it built in?
[16:17] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  upstart script? ... the thing is I already have an upstart script ... but I get like 20 of them and its not that cool to open up al 20 by myself .. so instead Im looping throught all my scripts and starting them up automaticly
 hgfhf -
[16:18] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: okay so your tool to use should be trap
[16:18] <Toph> I'm running ubuntu 10.10 and my System Monitor always shows one of my dual CPU's running at 100%. Why is that?
[16:19] <smiley7> oh and i wake up sometimes in the night and there is hard drive activity...
[16:19] <edbian> Can someone here that has 2 cdrom drives please tell me what their /media folder contains?
[16:19] <Elgar1> @bazhang, I want to use winetricks in order to install the rift beta its on the list, right here-http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=12482
[16:19] <smiley7> i can see the hard drive light going...
[16:19] <smiley7> and no programes are open..
[16:19] <bazhang> Elgar1, thats an issue for #winehq not here
[16:20] <smiley7> i wonder what ubuntu is doing....
[16:20] <smiley7> lol
[16:20] <Elgar1> wine is a linux program, is it not? Does wine even have irc?
[16:20] <bazhang> Elgar1, yes, as I have told you #winehq
[16:20] <compdoc> wine lets you run some windows programs in linux
[16:20] <llutz_> smiley7: syncing, writingn logs etc.pp
[16:21] <smiley7> whats that command ?
[16:21] <llutz_> smiley7: thats no command, just stuff running in background
 hgfhf -
[16:22] <smiley7> i basicly use ubuntu for youtube..and online gameing.
[16:22] <bazhang> Intersecret935, please stop that
[16:22] <edbian> Can someone here that has 2 cdrom drives please tell me the content of their /media drive?
[16:22] <ikonia> edbian: it will be different for each user
[16:23] <mman> im trying to install a program, but when i make "make" i get this error: make: *** [all] Error 2 how can i fix it?
[16:23] <ikonia> mman: what are you trying to install
[16:23] <edbian> ikonia, I just need to see how the cd-rom drives are set up.  Do you have 2 cd-rom drives?
[16:23] <Darius_Xubuntu> ok anyone here using xubuntu?
[16:23] <ikonia> edbian: yes
[16:24] <mman> ikonia, microdc, while compiling i get that error
[16:24] <ikonia> Darius_Xubuntu: lots of guys in #xubuntu
[16:24] <smiley7> i would delete windows xp if i new how to install stuff in ubuntu..
[16:24] <edbian> ikonia, can you please tell me what is in your /media?
[16:24] <llutz_> !manual  | smiley7
[16:24] <ikonia> edbian: no, as it will be different for each user, as I've said
[16:24] <edbian> smiley7, sudo apt-get install <stuff>
[16:24] <edbian> ikonia, How will it be different?  Can you post yours so I can see the differences?
[16:25] <smiley7> i ment  install from "source"
[16:25] <ikonia> edbian: no, it will be different as the contents are generated from the CD's int he drives
[16:25] <ikonia> !info microdc2
[16:25] <edbian> ikonia, what if you have nothing in the drives?  What should the folder look like?
[16:25] <ikonia> smiley7: you don't need to build it from source
[16:25] <ikonia> smiley7: just install it from the package manager, the package name is microdc2
[16:25] <ikonia> edbian: then the CD drives won't be mounted
[16:25] <edbian> ikonia, I ask because if I put a e.g. ubuntu live CD in one of my drives I cannot open / mount it
[16:26] <edbian> ikonia, If the drives are empty then the /media folder should be empty?  I believe there is a cdrom symlink or something
[16:26] <mman> ikonia, forgot to update the repo
[16:26] <mman> thaks
[16:26] <smiley7> this is what i want to install... http://www.secretmaryo.org/
[16:26] <ikonia> edbian: if the drives are empty, /media won't have a cd point bellow it
[16:27] <edbian> ikonia, So I can safely remove all of the cdrom folders in /media?
[16:27] <ikonia> edbian: yes, they should be created at mount time
[16:27] <ganjinlin> It's my first time use linux
[16:27] <mkanyicy> smiley7: have you downloaded the source?
[16:27] <leoncutz> hi. i need help. i am very new to ubuntu. just install it 2 days back, when u update my ati/amd graphic driver, my laptop screen keeps flickering until i hv to remove it. tks
[16:27] <edbian> ikonia, and i don't need anything in /etc/fstab.  I can just double click the icons in 'computer' and it'll mount things in the drives for me?
[16:27] <mkanyicy> ganjinlin: welcome to linux!
[16:28] <ikonia> edbian: the icons on the computer should be created at mount time
[16:28] <ganjinlin> Thank you
[16:28] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: add this to your script: stty intr =
[16:28] <edbian> ikonia, Well I have 'cd/dvd Drive' that are there if nothing is in the drive
[16:28] <edbian> ikonia, drive(s)
[16:29] <smiley7> i dont know witch one to download
[16:29] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: even better: stty intr undef
[16:29] <m_fulder> hm to which script schnuffle1
[16:29] <smiley7> http://www.secretmaryo.org/index.php?page=game_download_linux
[16:29] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  the startup script? or the one starting gnome-terminal?
[16:29] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  no disk  in drive -= no dir in /media/
[16:29] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: the one you call in your -e "...."
[16:29] <mkanyicy> smiley7: im not a game expert. so I wont be able to know too.
[16:30] <leoncutz> hi. i need help. i am very new to ubuntu. just install it 2 days back, when u update my ati/amd graphic driver, my laptop screen keeps flickering until i hv to remove it. tks
[16:30] <edbian> Dr_Willis, thank you.  What about in 'computer' in gnome?
[16:30] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  ah right ... but where should I place it? :P  just write stty intr undef  in the beginning of my script?
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  look and see?
[16:30] <jimlovell777> I have a directory full of other directories, each one containing a different iteration of a web site I run. I'm trying to streamline and make my life easier. Is there an automated way to save one copy of each file and then a history of the changes?
[16:30] <edbian> Dr_Willis, Well my system has 2 drives there at all times both named
[16:31] <edbian> Dr_Willis, sorry, both named, 'CD/DVD Drive'  If I put media in one of my drives (the black one) it works perfectly. It's automatically mounted and the icon in computer changes, and I can double click it to open it again.  The other drive though, (the white one) doesn't work at all.
[16:31] <jimlovell777> *on the files that already exist too,  not just new changes from today forward.
[16:32] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: yes
[16:32] <Darius_Xubuntu> ikonia but its possible to ask the xubuntu question in here?
[16:32] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  see if theres an incorrect entry in /etc/fstab for the 2nd drive.
[16:32] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  a optical drive shouldent need an entry in fstab. ive seen the installer get confused and add one however
[16:32] <edbian> Dr_Willis, Do I need entries in /etc/fstab at all?  I have them commented out
[16:33] <jose> i need help over the installation de opendldap in ubuntu server 10.04
[16:33] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: wrote a small test script wich called top afterwards and ctrl+c doesn't work as you want
[16:33] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  right .. but adding that line doesn't elp either :(
[16:34] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: can you paste your script? for me it works
[16:34] <NixGeek> Darius_Xubuntu: yep, it's an ubuntu
[16:34] <Kath> can someone help me I got a problem when i start my computer I get grub rescue)
[16:35] <Leadfoot> Good Morning
[16:35] <NixGeek> Kath: that's my specialty, fire!
[16:35] <Darius_Xubuntu> hello guys i need help with resolution after installing xubuntu desktop 4.8.1 now im stuck on 1024.768 how to adjust it more than that like 1280.1024?
[16:35] <edbian> Dr_Willis, does commenting something out in /etc/fstab make it as if it was never there?
[16:35] <Kath> NixGeek, how do i fix that...
[16:35] <Kath> NixGeek, I removed ubuntu totally
[16:36] <schnuffle1> edbian: yes
[16:36] <edbian> schnuffle1, I was afraid of that....
[16:36] <Kath> NixGeek, I cant restore windows 7 because I have no cds.. either
[16:36] <amit> Dr_willis: i want to configure my kernel plz suggest me some good links to do this,also can i subbmit it as my project to my college.m engg student ,help me
[16:36] <jose> there are someone that help in the installation of openldap in ubuntu server 10.04 LTS
[16:36] <NixGeek> Kath: okay, lets go into pm really fast
[16:36] <Kath> ok
[16:36] <Dr_Willis> amit:  ibve not needed to mess with the kernel in 5+ years.. so i have to suggest 'google' :)
[16:36] <Dr_Willis> !kernel
[16:37] <Leadfoot> speaking of kernels
[16:37] <Leadfoot> are the i386 kernels required if you are running x64?
[16:37] <self> q всем
[16:37] <alen_> sorry guys but how can i found "device manager" on Ubuntu :(
[16:37] <schnuffle1> Leadfoot: i386 is 32bit on 64bit you can run both
[16:38] <amit> thanx Dr_willis
[16:38] <Darius_Xubuntu> any ideas?
[16:38] <Leadfoot> right, but I've my machine is 64bit and it's running the 64bit kernel, do I need the 32bit kernels be to installed?
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> Leadfoot:  i never noticed you being able to have them installed...
[16:38] <mkanyicy> Darius_Xubuntu: what's the problem?
[16:39] <Dr_Willis> i would think the package manager would warn you.
[16:39] <amit> Dr_willis: can u plz suggest me some good topic for my minor project ,plz m confused what to make for my project
[16:39] <Darius_Xubuntu> i need help with resolution after installing xubuntu desktop 4.8.1 now im stuck on 1024.768 how to adjust it more than that like 1280.1024?
[16:39] <Line_> hello i used sudo modprobe ppp-compress-18 and now after a restart i have lost internet, how can i disable ppp-compress-18?
[16:39] <Dr_Willis> amit:  i have no idea what your project is or about.. im not doing your homework
[16:39] <schnuffle1> Leadfoot: If your system works, why should you need it?
[16:39] <mkanyicy> alen_: what do you want to see?
[16:40] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I tried the instructions given in the link and I still get a grub shell instead of a grub menu
[16:40] <erUSUL> Line_: modprobe is not permanent
[16:40] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: the link says this happens when you use the Grub2 Install where the Grub legacy install would have been appropriate. But my Grub version is 1.98. So I assume that quite clearly makes it Grub2
[16:40] <Leadfoot> perhaps it safer to keep them, in case of any 32bit software packages I may need to install later
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  theres like 5 differnt ways to install grub. try one of the other ways.   or you are doing somthing wrong like having grub files on a raid partition.
[16:40] <erUSUL> Line_: do « lsmod | grep compress »
[16:40] <mkanyicy> Darius_Xubuntu: i dont know xubuntu 'man xrandr'
[16:40] <alen_> i attached my sony video camera, but there is no reaction here
[16:40] <alen_> lol
[16:41] <sacarlson> amit: if you want a project build me a texas holdem poker site run with java with money accounting in mysql in 3 currency
[16:41] <alen_> i m using usb cabel
[16:41] <Line_> erUSUL: oh really? i performed that command, did a restart and now i cannot ssh to the machine and the machine cannot ping google.com or anything
[16:41] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I have tried two of the ways so far. Can you give me more information about what I might be doing wrong?
[16:41] <Darius_Xubuntu> mkanyicy thanks even for that :)
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  i would have to say check the trouble shooting parts of  the grub2 wiki and the forumn 'grub starters guide' post
[16:42] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: alternatively, is there any way to boot into one of the OSs installed using just the Grub shell?
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  type in the proper commands and it will boot the os. if you knew the proper commands.
[16:42] <jose> someone know a munual over installation openldap in ubuntu server 10.04 lts
[16:42] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: where can I find the proper commands?
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  look for grub.cfg examples. and the grub2 docs.
[16:42] <erUSUL> Line_: if the module does no laod automatically and you have to use modprobe then the module wont load in the next boot either
[16:43] <Line_> erUSUL: would enabling ppp-compress have anything to do with this lack of internet connectivity upon reboot?
[16:43] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: *sigh*. Well, there goes my afternoon -_-
[16:43] <schnuffle1> jose: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html
[16:43] <Line_> erUSUL: so it must be some other issue entirely?
[16:43] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  sure sec :)
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  it pays to learn grub. ive spend many an hr reading its docs and learning how it works.
[16:44] <pestvogel> Is there a way to stop network-manager stop managing a nic but run and manage other nic's?
[16:44] <alen_> pls some1 help me :(
[16:44] <twig> twig`
[16:44] <m_fulder> schnuffle1, http://pastebin.com/8ZJU10Z1
[16:45] <llutz_> pestvogel: add that specific nic to /etc/network/interfaces, nm will ignore it then
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  ive learned how to make it boot iso files. and how to 'install' to a flash drive so i can boot mysystem even if grub on the hd gets trashed.
[16:45] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: while it certainly seems interesting to learn about, it seems like the chances for using the knowledge will be few and far between
[16:45] <pestvogel> llutz_: Tanks, i'll try that.
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  it pays to learn  how the os works.
[16:45] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: in any case. I'll read up.
[16:45]  * ahimza_ .
[16:45] <erUSUL> Line_: dunno; do you usee ppp for connecting ? if you do the modules needed shoulb be loaded by pppd without intervention...
[16:46] <ahimza_> hello guys
[16:46] <erUSUL> Line_: i do not see the connection at all but weirdest things happen sometimes ,...
[16:47] <erUSUL> pestvogel: easiest is probably configure the nick in /etc/network/interfaces ( but never bringin it up )
[16:48] <Line_> erUSUL: nope i just installed pptpd for a vpn connection which worked fine, so i decided i would try to enable encryption so i tried sudo modprobe ppp-compress-18 and then a reboot
[16:49] <erUSUL> Line_: as i said; the effects of "sudo modprobe ppp-compress-18" will not survive a reboot
[16:49] <alen_> i have problem with video camera,i attach with usb,but nothing seems to happen, pls help me someone :(
[16:49] <Line_> erUSUL: yea, understood
[16:49] <Dr_Willis> alen_:  you mean a Web-cam? or a camcorder-type cam?

[16:50] <Matty75> hello... i have a question re: xubuntu. is this the right place?
[16:50] <dragonkeeper> i try mounting my HDD  and i get the error  .     Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda6,      missing codepage or helper program, or other error     In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try     dmesg | tail  or so  ....   so i look on the terminal    i  get    [ 1080.135052] EXT4-fs (sda6): ext4_check_descriptors: Checksum for group 0 failed (63931!=46431)[ 1080.13

[16:51] <Dr_Willis> dragonkeeper:  sounds like it has Fileystem issues. You have fscked the fileysstem?
[16:51] <EmuAlert> Matty75, if it's specific to xubuntu, then you probably should connect to #xubuntu
[16:51] <dragonkeeper> nope ... just logged in
[16:51] <Matty75> emuAlert: ok, thanks
 pls help me about this
[16:53] <erUSUL> dragonkeeper: pass a fsck to the filesystem. gparted can do it or you can use e2fsck from command line
[16:53] <erUSUL> alen_: is usb or firewire?
[16:53] <alen_> usb is
[16:54] <dragonkeeper> erUSUL   just running a check now
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> alen_:  my camcorder i just plug it in.. and it shows up as a usb hard drive..
[16:54] <Daekdroom> What's the name of the bin ALT+F2 executes?
[16:54] <alen_> my dont
[16:54] <alen_> probably there is no drivers
[16:54] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: set the stty intr undef in the script ypu call from /home/delta/Desktop/servrar/*
[16:54] <alen_> and on linux i dont know how to add them
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> alen_:  other ones may need other drivers, i got an old one htat has firewire, or usb. I alwyas used the firewire port on it.
[16:55] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  right will try that on :)
[16:55] <alen_> i have only usb
[16:55] <alen_> :(
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> alen_:  i would suggest checking the forums. It may be theres some dv module/drivers you need to load.
[16:55] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: meaning you add the command in each script at te top
[16:55] <GeekMan> does ubuntu netbook editon support networking with windows networks
[16:55] <GeekMan> like flie serves
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> the one cam that was usb/fw i had.. sucked with usb - even under windows
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> GeekMan:  its all the same at the heart. so yes
[16:56] <GeekMan> k
[16:56] <Dr_Willis> GeekMan:  to get/shre files - thats 'samba' :) on most all disrtos.
[16:56] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  yes I got that .. but no while pressing CTRL+C I only get the ^C in terminal but nothing happends :(
[16:56] <GeekMan> yeah
[16:56] <dragonkeeper> erUSUL   Dr_Willis    ty recovered all data  :)
[16:57] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  or I don't event get the ^C .. just while pressing it nothing happends
[16:57] <erUSUL> dragonkeeper: no problem
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> dragonkeeper:  its weird the ext4 gets messed up like that. You dident power off  while it was running or somthing else odd?
[16:57] <dragonkeeper> i mounted it on my windows OS
[16:57] <schnuffle1> m_fulder: that i what stty intr undef does, it disables the ctrl+c signal, isn'T that what you wanted?
[16:57] <Perserver> Hello.
[16:58] <m_fulder> schnuffle1,  hehe no not exaclty .. I wanted to break the script from the terminal window without closing the window
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> dragonkeeper:  if you use windows to access your ext2/3/4 - be sure to 'safely remove' the thing under windows. befor you exit windows.
[16:58] <Perserver> I have similar problems as this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626984
[16:58] <krl_> hi
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> dragonkeeper:  i dont reccomend any of the tools under windows to access ext2/3/4
[16:59] <erUSUL> dragonkeeper: ¬.¬ never let windows play with grown ups stuff XXDD
[16:59] <r\wWorld> it's sad that MS doesn't get with the program and support other FS's
[16:59] <gigasoft> is there easy way to auto change desktop background
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> gigasoft:  theres proberly a dozen 'wallpaper' changer tools in the repos.
[17:00] <dragonkeeper> Dr_Willis   i did the saftey remove .... but windows hates anything superior to it.    lol    erUSUL
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> gigasoft:  gnome has its own wallpaper-change-feature also. based on the time of day.
[17:01] <orgthingy> hello, 10.10 doesnt detect my webcam on my new laptop..how can i make my laptop detect the built-in laptop?
[17:01] <gigasoft> Dr_Willis, thanks
[17:01] <Daekdroom> What's the default command that ALT+f2 is set to run?
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> orgthingy:  how did you 'test' the webcam?
[17:01] <orgthingy> fired up 'Cheese', Dr_Willis
[17:02] <schnuffle1> Daekdroom: opens a launcher
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> orgthingy:  is it a very new laptop? its possible its not supported (yet)
[17:02] <Daekdroom> schnuffle1, yeah. I want to know the command.
[17:02] <Encry8> Hi, is there a way to use Subversion without a webhost? I want to use it on my local pc, i tried putting localhost for the URL
[17:02] <orgthingy> Dr_Willis: at all? is there a way I can look around for drivers or so?
[17:03] <the100BiLL> hi I have a Dell D600 Laptop and ubuntu 10.10 I turned the laptop off over the shut down button in the panel. Today I turned it back on and all the sudden I had no sound and when I try to shut the laptop down over the panel, it thorws me back  to the login screen. When I look in the sound setting it tells me that I only have  a "dummy output" but lspci tells me I have a sound device. Can any body tell me the solution for this problem
[17:03] <the100BiLL>  or at least give me a link, because I couldn't find any solution that work for me. Some how i think it has to do somthing with the network manager  because it just disabled the network its self yesterday and I had to enable it again

[17:03] <wildc4rd> is there a simple (mspaint) equivalent in synaptic? just need it for quick/easy image size changing
[17:03] <adamiphone4> Hi.
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> orgthingy:  thers always the forums. and stuff.
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> wildc4rd:  theres tools specificially for size changeing.. no need for painting features
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> wildc4rd:  imagemagick (i think is one)
[17:04] <dragonkeeper> wildc4rd   kolourpaint   ?
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> wildc4rd:  if its somthing you do a Lot - you could make a nautilus script to handle it also.
[17:04] <orgthingy> Dr_Willis: i already googled, and will keep on googling
[17:04] <orgthingy> but was checking if people know how to help me here
[17:04] <orgthingy> thanks anyways
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> orgthingy:  almost ALL the webcam drivers are made by a very few people :)  You could try 11.04 and see if it works in that.
[17:05] <libaofeng> i install ylmf.com 's os ,kernel is ubuntu 10.0
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> !webcam
[17:05] <dvrcoder> any idea where to place user-specific config files that can't be in home?
[17:05] <bazhang> libaofeng, thats not supported here check the ylmfos support forums
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> libaofeng:  if ylmf has their own ubuntu variant. you need to go to their support channels.
[17:06] <Dr_Willis> whateer ylmf is...
[17:06] <bazhang> its a derivate made to look like XP
[17:06] <Dr_Willis> bazhang:  please.. this is a faimly channel... :)
[17:06] <bazhang> Dr_Willis, :)
[17:06] <libaofeng> thank you ,
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> Like Lubuntu isent close enough to that. well.. more win95ish i guess.
[17:07] <puppy> how to install packages from APTonCD
[17:07] <ubuntu> hello
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> !aptoncd
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. see the !offline factoid?
[17:08] <schnuffle1> Daekdroom: there's a tool called gmrun that could do the trick
[17:08] <puppy> when I try to restore it does not detect the cd but the cd is already mounted
[17:08] <Daekdroom> schnuffle1, No. You don't get it. I need the specific command that opens that same launcher.
[17:09] <mezzer> Hi
[17:09] <ahmad> hi
[17:09] <schnuffle1> Daekdroom: I get it, but that was the best solution I could propose, Alt+F2 calls some dbus stuff
[17:10] <mezzer> I want to know how i can add items to the Shortcuts manu
[17:10] <mezzer> menu*
[17:10] <AbhijiT> mezzer, which menu? right clck on desktop or the menu on gnome panel - applicatioon,plcaes etc?
[17:11] <Encry8> Hi, is there a way to use Subversion without a webhost? I want to use it on my local pc, i tried putting localhost for the URL
[17:11] <rtdos> is it possible to install ubuntu-server on a machine that is currently an ubuntu-desktop without reformatting and reinsalling ?
[17:11] <mezzer> in the gnome panel
[17:11] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: in fdisk -l has an asterisk under the boot option for one of my paritions. I assume that asterisk shows where it expects the boot partition to be?
[17:11] <mezzer> in the top of the screen
[17:11] <puppy> mezzer: yes and select edit menu
[17:11] <AbhijiT> mezzer, right click to the 'very' left of the word application and select edit menu
[17:12] <bazhang> rtdos, sure just install lamp
[17:12] <bazhang> !lamp > rtdos
[17:12] <compdoc> rtdos, ubuntu-server is almost the same, except it has no gui
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> rtdos:  the 'server' edition just has some differnt packages and default kenel. and no gui.
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  i think the * is showing the boot flag
[17:12] <compdoc> if the versions are the same, just stay with ubuntu desktop
[17:12] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: how can I change the boot flag"?
[17:13] <mezzer> AbhijiT, no i can't modify this like this
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  why do you think you need to?
[17:13] <AbhijiT> mezzer, why?
[17:13] <mezzer> there is only Applications and System
[17:13] <mezzer> I cant modify the SHorcuts menu like this
[17:13] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: it's on dev/sda1, which is my windows parition. And I want it on /dev/sda2 which is the linux parition with the /boot directory
[17:13] <mezzer> "Shortcuts" menu
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  it shouldnt matter.
[17:13] <AbhijiT> mezzer, i dont know what you are talking about
[17:13] <AbhijiT> where is shortcut menu?
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  i dont think grub cares about the boot flag.
[17:14] <Perserver> Scanner doesn't work anymore, someone dare to help?
[17:14] <mezzer> AbhijiT, 1second
[17:14] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I see. I'll keep probing then
[17:14] <AbhijiT> no idea. cant help mezzer
[17:15] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  gparted lets you set the flag if you really want to change it.
[17:15] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: I'm using kubuntu unfortunately. The only reason I'm mucking about with this at all is because the GRUB install portion of the kubuntu install failed
[17:16] <mezzer> ph sorry
[17:16] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  you can install gparted on kubuntu
[17:16] <mezzer> not Shortcuts but Places
[17:16] <BluesKaj> well time to go
[17:16] <mezzer> my ubuntu is in french
[17:16] <AbhijiT> !fr | mezzer
[17:17] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: no internet connection on the machine. I'm still figuring out how to get IP masquerading working on my laptop so that I can get connection to its eth0 via mi laptop's wlan0
[17:17] <van7hu> hi all,anyone here live in england and see football ?

[17:17] <maxo> hey, does anyone here use sbackup?
[17:17] <bazhang> maxo, what is your question
[17:17] <maxo> every time sbackup does an incremental backup, it's a huge size
[17:18] <maxo> my full backup is is 12GB. Now it's doing an incremental backup, and that's over 11GB
[17:18] <mezzer> AbhijiT, Places menu
[17:18] <maxo> surely it shouldn't be so large?
[17:18] <AbhijiT> ohhh i see
[17:18] <AbhijiT> mezzer, you cant edit that menu. but you can add bookmarks to it
[17:19] <AbhijiT> and if you really want to edit then you have to use some docky or something. i dunno how. mezzer
[17:19] <AbhijiT> mezzer, brb
[17:19] <mezzer> AbhijiT, thank you ;)

[17:20] <rufsketch1> and then "done"
[17:20] <rufsketch1> should I be worried?

[17:23] <Simisu> hello...
[17:23] <nobodybk> anyone know how to put a folder in home folder to Place Toolbar ?
[17:23] <bazhang> puppy, put the aptoncd as part of your sources?
[17:23] <m2rt> bazhang, I'm trying to create ctypes wrappers. See: http://www.thefoundation.de/david/2008/sep/11/using-ffmpeg-python/
[17:24] <puppy> bazhang: ok I will try
[17:24] <bazhang> puppy, you read the aptoncd guide, correct?
[17:24] <Dr_Willis>  rufsketch1  never seen that error message befor. You could check the forums/grub docs for mention of it.
[17:24] <Diamondcite> nobodybk: I think such an option might exist in the gnome file dialog?
[17:24] <matt444> Hi, how can I tell what type of ram my computer takes?  I think it might be DDR1 but I'm not sure.
[17:24] <LadyNikon> matt444: search forthe specs of your motherboard
[17:25] <LadyNikon> that will tell you
[17:25] <nobodybk> Diamondcite, show me how to find that ^^
[17:25] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: sweet! I have it working sort of. It's booting into kubuntu and supposedly checking my drives for errors.
[17:25] <matt444> LadyNikon: thanks, how can I tell what type of motherboard I have?
[17:25] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: it says check forced, but, unfortunately isn't giving me any information about the progress of the check

[17:26] <Simisu> Hello, i just bought a new 1TB HD and i would like to finally try ubuntu, but before partitioning the drive i would like to know if i need to make any special partitions or if what i'm thinking (which is to be able to boot into ubuntu on my external drive from two different machines) is possible... any thoughts or help is warmly welcome, thanks in advance!
[17:26] <Dr_Willis> rufsketch1:  thats chcking the filesystem for errors.. that may take some time
[17:26] <Diamondcite> matt444: sudo dmidecode --type 17 | more
[17:26] <LjL> !ops | Intersecret920 is a bot or something, lastlog "intetsecret"
[17:27] <puppy> bazhang: when I put the APTon Cd in drive it does not open with the application
[17:27] <rufsketch1> Dr_Willis: yeah I figured. It's weird though. fsck usually gives a status indicator
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  you can install to a external usb hd. You need to make sure you tell grub to install to the proper hd as the last step. (it can accidentl install to the first hd if you are not carefull)
[17:27] <alen_> guys where is software center on ubuntu,i m using version Linux 2.6.35-25
[17:27] <LadyNikon> lol
[17:27] <alen_> i cant find software center
[17:27] <dragonkeeper> can ubuntu detect the ram speed ?    if so  whats the command or program ?
[17:27] <alzamabar> Hi. How do I edit the content of /etc/resolv.conf with the entries I want?
[17:27] <alen_> im newbie on ubuntu
[17:27] <puppy> when I try to install package from it,then opens in SC and downloads from net.
[17:28] <LjL> alzamabar: you don't, because your edits will be reverted by the "resolvconf" daemon
[17:28] <H3r0> does someone know why the ppa of wine doesn't work with the last wine version?
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> puppy:  it could be its finding newer versions on the net.
[17:28] <juhaon> Do you know any screen recorder that doesn't record as .ogg? I want to upload my video to youtube but it doesn't accept .ogg files
[17:28] <alzamabar> LjL, I tried to edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf but again the /etc/resolv.conf gets recreated
[17:28] <LjL> alzamabar: you need to specify your DNS in some dhcp-related file i forget the name of, instead. or get rid of resolvconf.
[17:28] <Simisu> Dr_willies: what is grub? i will probably be using windows to partition the drive...
[17:28] <H3r0> anyone?
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  grub is the bootloader that gives you the menus.
[17:28] <alzamabar> LjL, how do I get rid of resolveconf?
[17:29] <Simisu> ah
[17:29] <Simisu> ok
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  theres no need to use windows to partition the hd. if its to be all linux.
[17:29] <LjL> alzamabar, sudo apt-get remove resolvconf, but note that's not supported or anything and could cause trouble. i personally have removed it and network-manager because they get on my nerves, but it's really not recommended
[17:29] <puppy> Dr-willies; but I dont want to use net
[17:29] <schnuffle1> Daekdroom: http://darkness.codefu.org/wordpress/2004/07/popping-up-the-gnome-run-application-dialog-from-a-script/
[17:29] <dragonkeeper> Simisu if you install windows after linux you will need to restore the bootloader
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> puppy:  unplug the nic i gues.. or check the pograms docs.. it may hae an option.
[17:30] <puppy> I want this cd to be used in a computer without net
[17:30] <m2rt> Anyone knows an FFmpeg alternative? I need to make snapshots of a video after some interval in seconds. The library should work with python... Or very easy to use in c++
[17:30] <Simisu> dr willies: nope not all linux... i'm hoping to be able to dual boot each computer with windows and the extrnal HD containing linux
[17:30] <Krank> How do I unmount an extra internal hard drive?
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  but he external HD is all linux or not?
[17:30] <alzamabar> LjL, the DNS name resolution now doesn't work in my server because it has the wrong entries in /etc/resolv.conf. Any ideas on how to edit the entries manually so that these don't get overwritten (except from removing resolvconf)?
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> Krank:  sudo umount /media/MOUNTPOINT is one way
[17:31] <spanishb> !!list
[17:31] <amalgama> i would like to add windows 7 to my ubuntu-only laptop (damn gaming industry).. i decided that the best way to go is format with windows and then ubuntu.. is there a way to install the programs i already have, again, without doing it one by one?
[17:31] <LjL> alzamabar: you could always try making /etc/resolv.conf -w for everybody (chmod a-w /etc/resolv.conf) after editing it
[17:31] <Simisu> Dr_willies: i guess so... i won't put windows on it, and i might make two partitions for the possibility to play with two different linux...
[17:31] <alzamabar> LjL, this seems a great idea. I'm going to try straight away!
[17:32] <Gnea> puppy: have you read the aptoncd documentation?
[17:32] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  You proberly want to make a / paittion and a /home partition, and a swap partition.
[17:33] <Simisu> and that's using linux? are these different then the "normal" windows partitions?
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  linux dosent USE windows partitions...
[17:34] <Simisu> it can't read them,?
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  linux can read/write to wndows partitions :)
[17:34] <Simisu> ha
[17:34] <Simisu> :O)
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> but it dosent Use them..
[17:34] <schiermike> test
[17:34] <raykid> hello everyone! Can someone give me a hint about xorg.conf and fglrx? the documentary says i should edit it but the file doesnt exist.
[17:34] <Simisu> so if my HD was already partitioned adding linux would ADD another partition to reside in?
[17:35] <puppy> Gnea: I read it but does not happening anything that said on it.
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> raykid:  the documets may be outdated..  x auto configures for the most part these days
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  you resize  the existing partitions to make linux partitions
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  the installer can do that
[17:35] <Gnea> raykid: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=670645

[17:36] <LinuxNoob> good day all :D
[17:36] <Chris01> Hello, Does anyone know an external 2.5",USB 2.0/3.0 hard drive that can be formated with XFS?
[17:36] <pietr101> LinuxNoob: good day to you too!
[17:36] <LinuxNoob> xfs?
[17:36] <Chris01> yes
[17:36] <raykid> Dr_Willis, i know but my card is fairly new and not detected properly. The documentary mentions my card and says i should edit xorg.conf. Can i apply manual settings elsewhere?
[17:36] <LinuxNoob> whats xfs
[17:36] <Simisu> Dr_Willies: now i'm starting to get it... good... so basically the installation will take care of it for me... so how much space should i dedicate for linux? are 30GB ok?
[17:36] <ikonia> Chris01: same way as any other disk, use the disk tool gparted, select xfs and select the disk
[17:36] <pragma_> Why would any drive not be able to be formatted with a filesystem?
[17:37] <ikonia> LinuxNoob: a file system
[17:37] <puppy> gnea: this also: http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/doc-manual.html
[17:37] <LinuxNoob> extension file system?
[17:37] <ikonia> LinuxNoob: no, a file system
[17:37] <Gnea> puppy: try this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/APTonCD
[17:37] <LinuxNoob> im not familiar with xfs x_x
[17:37] <Chris01> XFS file system
[17:37] <LinuxNoob> thats why im askin :D
[17:37] <ikonia> LinuxNoob: then don't worry about it
[17:37] <amalgama> i would like to add windows 7 to my ubuntu-only laptop (damn gaming industry).. i decided that the best way to go is format with windows and then ubuntu.. is there a way to install the programs i already have, again, without doing it one by one?
[17:37] <Dr_Willis> Im not sure you would want xfs on a usbvhd.
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> !clone | amalgama
[17:38] <Chris01> I have an A DATA 16GB flash drive that can't be formated with XFS
[17:38] <LinuxNoob> what are u tryinto use the flash drive for?
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  why do you want to use XFS on a flash drive anyway?
[17:38] <Chris01> so this is the reason I am asking
[17:38] <Simisu> Dr_Willies: now i'm starting to get it... good... so basically the installation will take care of it for me... so how much space should i dedicate for linux? are 30GB ok?
[17:39] <vlrk1> iam trying use ubuntu in my windows with help of vmware .. iam having problems can any body help here
[17:39] <raykid> I found a post on the ubuntu forums that says i can just reconfigure xorg via "sudo Xorg -configure" while gdm is disabled. Does this work on 10.10?
[17:39] <Gnea> !vmware | vlrk1
[17:39] <Dr_Willis> Chris01: mkfs.xfs /dev/sdb1 or whatver gives some error?
[17:39] <LinuxNoob> vlrk1: ask away
[17:39] <Chris01> I want to use with a PVR that uses this type of file system
[17:39] <LinuxNoob> virk1: im noob at linux by i know my vmware for the most part
[17:39] <Chris01> yes
[17:39] <pragma_> Gnea: he's using Windows as the host and wishes to install Ubuntu as the guest.  qemu is shit on Windows.
[17:39] <Gnea> Chris01: did you make sure that you set the partition type correctly?
[17:40] <frimend> How do I use this "use custom command" feature?
[17:40] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  xfs with  somthiung like mythbuntu is so it can be faster at deleting Lots of little files (i rcall) not really going to be an issue with 16gb flash drives.
[17:40] <Chris01> master boot record
[17:40] <Gnea> pragma_: no need for that kind of language, thanks.
[17:40] <zuasive> Greetings folks
[17:40] <frimend> I have a bunch of rar.files, and I can open them with 7z x.
[17:40] <Gnea> pragma_: and virtualbox works great in windows.
[17:40] <zuasive> I'm sure this is a busy channel so maybe someone can direct me to a better place to ask
[17:40] <frimend> I would like ubuntu to do this automatically for me though, if I doubleclick them.
[17:40] <amalgama> thanx a lot dr_willis
[17:40] <aroman> !ask | zuasive
[17:40] <Gnea> zuasive: about?
[17:40] <zuasive> I want to use ubuntu to build an internet content filter Squid+Dansguardian with NTLM
[17:40] <Dr_Willis> frimend:  install the proper rar/unrar tools and the default file archiver tool can handle them
[17:40] <frimend> I see this "use command" feature, I tried "7z x" there, but that did not do the trick.
[17:41] <LinuxNoob> frimend do what automaticly?
[17:41] <vlrk1> Gnea:i will get virtualbox and try again ..
[17:41] <Chris01> what I should do to format it?
[17:41] <LinuxNoob> vlrk1
[17:41] <zuasive> I've not had much luch joining to an ad domain using samba and winbind and squid and likwise open don't play well
[17:41] <LinuxNoob> i like runonlinux
[17:41] <zuasive> Any ideas?
[17:41] <LinuxNoob> try that aswell
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  i doubt if you will notice any differnance if you use ext3 vs xfs.
[17:41] <frimend> Dr_Willis: I can do this, what is the "proper rar/unrar tools"? However, I am still interested in how I can use this "use command" feature!
[17:41] <zuasive> Got it
[17:41] <zuasive> Thanks ubottu
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> !rar | frimend
[17:41] <frimend> Do I have to include the file name as a paramter to the command in some way?
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> frimend:  i got an 'extract here' menu item some how.. that extracts rars for me.
[17:41] <LinuxNoob> u cant use rarlab onlinux?
[17:41] <Chris01> it can be formated with ext 3 and ext 4
[17:42] <Gnea> !ad | zuasive
[17:42] <leapy0yo> hi
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  or ext2 if yoiu wanted.. proberly dont want to use ext4
[17:42] <LinuxNoob> leapy0yo: whats goin on
[17:42] <leapy0yo> when shutting down ubuntu stays stuck on checking for unattended upgrades... how can i fix that?
[17:42] <Announcement> hi guys
[17:42] <LinuxNoob> hmm

[17:42] <Announcement> not currently
[17:42] <Announcement> but i have it in vm
[17:43] <Gnea> leapy0yo: let it finish
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> ahh gotcha
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> yeah let it update
[17:43] <Announcement> whats the *BEST* build of linux
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> linux needs a view dif drivers than windows
[17:43] <Announcement> i want to put it on my laptop
[17:43] <Chris01> one moment please to copy exactly the error message it appears when I want to format it with XFS
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> there is no "best" build
[17:43] <ikonia> Announcement: there isn't a "best"
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> its to what you want it for
[17:43] <Gnea> !best | Announcement
[17:43] <Announcement> the laptop runs winxp

[17:43] <zuasive> Wow what a busy place, nice to see the enthusiasm.

[17:43] <Gnea> !pm | pragma_
[17:43] <LinuxNoob> id say..
[17:44] <zuasive> Thanx for the link I'll see if I can get it going
[17:44] <LinuxNoob> boot from external flashdrive
[17:44] <zuasive> *fingers crossed*
[17:44] <schnuffle1> bazhang: linux mint and ubuntu are good choices for the beginning
[17:44] <pragma_> Gnea: Stop abusing the bot.
[17:44] <LinuxNoob> that would be pretty fast, and take up barely any resourses
[17:44] <schnuffle1> bazhang: sorry wrong name
[17:44] <ikonia> pragma_: he's not
[17:44] <bazhang> schnuffle1, lets not answer polling questions please
[17:44] <schnuffle1> okay
[17:44] <Gnea> !language | pragma_
[17:45] <bazhang> LinuxNoob, please dont use the enter key every two words
[17:45] <pragma_> ikonia: Yes, he is.  I sent that moron an unrelated /msg and he wishes to bring to the channel.
[17:45] <LinuxNoob> sorry, ive always typed that way, im tryin to stop :D
[17:45] <raykid> Can I force ubuntu 10.10 to use a Xorg.conf ?
[17:45] <bazhang> raykid, sure
[17:46] <LinuxNoob> is it just me, or do downloads go quicker in ubuntu over win7?
[17:46] <raykid> bazhang, how would i do that? I already tried "sudo Xorg -configure" which doesnt appear to work
[17:46] <Simisu> i want to install ubuntu on an external HD and i'm wondering if it would be possible to use this drive with two different computers or not (two laptops, each laptop boots into windows right now) is this possible or would it only work with one laptop? is it just a questions of configuring the computers to dual boot or it's more complicated then that?  thanks in advance!!!
[17:46] <bazhang> LinuxNoob, lets keep chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please , here is support only
[17:46] <LinuxNoob> simisu: very possible
[17:47] <LinuxNoob> simisu: look into universal usb tool
[17:47] <r\wWorld> .j #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:47] <Diamondcite> Simisu: Linux can be installed onto a USB HDD (Full install) and it should work, especially if they are intel graphics.
[17:47] <LinuxNoob> will let u make a bootable copy of ubuntu or any other program u like, and u just restart and boot from usb. or wubi to run an instance from windows desktop.
[17:47] <bazhang> raykid, you'd have to manually fashion one, or use the nvidia config tool if you have nividia
[17:47] <ALPOCR> Hi. I NEED HELP FOR CONNECT DELL S300W PROJECT TO UBUNTU.!!  ANYBODY CAN HELP ME ??
[17:48] <Gnea> !caps | ALPOCR
[17:48] <LinuxNoob> alpocr: ask and we can help maybe
[17:48] <Chris01> When I want to format the flash drive with XFS file format a message appears: Error creating file system: Cannot run mkfs: cannot spawn 'mkfs.xfs -L "New Volume" /dev/sdb': Failed to execute child process "mkfs.xfs" (No such file or directory)
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> ALPOCR:  you talked a lot.. but said very little..  claify the ubuntu issue.
[17:48] <Krank> After I umount my extra internal hard drive, shutdown, remove it and restart, i have to press "S" to skill the remount. How do I stop this?
[17:48] <Simisu> thanks a lot... this is very exciting :O)
[17:48] <Diamondcite> Simisu: The reason I say Intel Graphics because if you need the closed source ATI or Nvidia drivers, X might be configured to only handle that one.
[17:48] <raykid> bazhang, well i dont have nvidia currently, but my problem is not that i dont know how to make one, i need ubuntu to use one first
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> Krank:  edit the /etc/fstab and tell it to not mount the hd in the first place.
[17:48] <Gnea> Chris01: what is the exact thing you typed out in the terminal?
[17:48] <LinuxNoob> yeah my laptop has nvidea drivers, it was a pain to run ubuntu as its primary os.
[17:48] <alzamabar> LjL, found how to fix it.
[17:49] <Simisu> diamondicite: i have a Lacie 1TB
[17:49] <Bravewolf> Is there anyone using Personal File Sharing included Gnome, which in turn is based upon Apache and WebDAV? I have a couple of problem with access, TCP port, and MDNS announcement. In particolar Windows clients does not show the shared resource in Networks, Windows client does not support password authentication (even though the should be), and I don't know how to create an iptables rule if the TCP port always changes.
[17:49] <Krank> thanks Dr_Willis
[17:49] <Chris01> I use the graphic interface
[17:49] <alzamabar> First, even by using chmod -w the network manager recreates it
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> LinuxNoob:  Ive had very fes issues with nvidia drivers. :)
[17:49] <puppy> bazhang: I left the APTonCD ....please tell me how to install a .deb package which downloaded
[17:49] <Chris01> I don't know terminal comands
[17:49] <delinquentme> so im trying to figure out why my ubuntu 10.04 doesnt have a ~/.ssh folder .. any ideas ? i've installed open shh server as well ....
[17:49] <Diamondcite> Simisu: I can say nothing of your USB drive itself since I have had no experience, I just used a USB Dock with a HDD attached...
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> delinquentme:  it should make one the first tim eyour user runs ssh
[17:49] <LinuxNoob> dr_willis: lucky, i dod formated my hdd, and tried to put 10.10 onmy hdd. took forever to figure out how to get past the driver issue
[17:49] <ikonia> delinquentme: once you ssh to something it will get created
[17:50] <Helbom> hello eveyone :)
[17:50] <alzamabar> LjL, I right clicked on the network icon on the status bar, edited the entries for IPv4 and executed /etc/init.d/network-manager. /etc/resolv.conf was written correctly then
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> LinuxNoob:  other then needing 'nomodeset' initially. ive had very few issues with the actual droivers.. and the nomodeset is not really a 'driver'  issue.. its a  kernel type issue
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> Hopefully an issue that gets fixed in 11.04
[17:51] <Diamondcite> ALPOCR: Have you tried connecting your projector with the Blue head and then enabling it in System - Preferences -> Monitor ?
[17:51] <Simisu> OK THANKS A LOT EVERYONE :O) !!!! (i will probably be back when i actually start my path into linux (hopefully today) thanks again!!!
[17:51] <malloc_> hi, is it anyway possible to test unity on a natty alpha-2 live-cd with a nvidia card?
[17:51] <m15k> Any ideas, what could be the reason for read only NFS-shares?
[17:51] <tzaeru> I wonder what my chances are to break developing environment and loads of libraries by updating 9.04 to 9.11.. :3
[17:51] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  you could always install virtualbox on your windows pc and play with linux in there.
[17:51] <m15k> got 777 on shared folder
[17:51] <m15k> got rw in exports
[17:51] <Chris01> Can anyone help me to format the flash drive with XFS file system?
[17:51] <Gnea> tzaeru: since there is no 9.11, the chances would be null
[17:51] <tzaeru> uh
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  how have you  tried to format it?
[17:52] <tzaeru> yeah, whatever did suggested to update to
[17:52] <LinuxNoob> dr: thats what i had to do, but im a first time linux user so it took me awhile :D
[17:52] <tzaeru> 9.10
[17:52] <Chris01> by using Disk utility
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  try gparted.. and be sure you got the xfs packages installed.
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> Chris01:  or try via he command line
[17:53] <Simisu> dr_Willis: ture but my computer is so old and tired i don't want to put anything on it... either way i know that with a 1TB drive i don't need to worry for dedicating a whole partition for that no? :O) wish me luck
[17:53] <Chris01> one moment
[17:53] <delinquentme> ikonia, FTW!
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:  my  wallpaper collection is like 1tb :)
[17:53] <Simisu> haha... well... i'm oldschool... "poor" also...
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> Simisu:   I wouldent even bother with a 1tb hd these days. :) been getting 2+TB usb hds lately
[17:54] <Simisu> i'm using a very old laptop inherited from my girlfriend...
[17:54] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis-  1.5 is currently the best price performance ratio.
[17:54] <Diamondcite> Simisu: Err in that case, please make sure it's USB 2.0 capable atleast ^_^
[17:54] <Simisu> yes yes... usb two indeed... but bueno...
[17:54] <raykid> How can I force Maverick to use a xorg.conf?
[17:55] <Gnea> !laptop | Simisu Great resource for using Ubuntu and Linux on laptops
[17:55] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  when i find them on sale. a 2tb is normally like $10 more then the 1.5's
[17:55] <Simisu> thanks Gnea!
[17:55] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis-  External or Internal?
[17:55] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  only time i get them :) when i find sales.
[17:55] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  external usb's what i been getting lately
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  ive seen exernal usb and inernals the same prices on sale also.
[17:56] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis-  Ahhhhh that'd be why. Sorry I thought you ment internal drives and I find the 2 TB internals are a tad overpriced right now :)
[17:56] <delinquentme> and when im trying to copy a id_rsa.pub file from a machine im sshed into ... and " cp " it from the machine im connected to .. to the machine im using ... the command would be " cp id_rsa.pub XXXX
[17:56] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis-  Clearly I need to look harder then
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  it pays to watch the sale papers.  Right now my big issue is if i upgrade to a bigger hd.. copying 1+TB over usb to a 2tb usbhd.. that takes like.. all day. :)
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> USB3 come on! :)
[17:57] <john___> Hi, I'd like to know if there is any way to change the trash icon with a custom one
[17:57] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis -  Year I was about to say, too bad most dont support USB 3.0 yet
[17:57] <john___> without changing the whole iconset
[17:58] <Dr_Willis> zookalicious:  Ive had issues with the external sata also. never can seem to get it working right.
[17:58] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis -  Could always remove the drive from inside the casing and just plug it directly into the mobo :P
[17:58] <zookalicious> Dr_Willis -  Save yourself a few hours
[17:59] <john___> Hi, I'd like to know if there is any way to change the trash icon with a custom one without changing the whole iconset
[18:00] <Diamondcite> Dr_Willis: Won't 2 computers over gigabit ethernet be faster then?
[18:00] <zookalicious> Diamondcite -  He's using external drives
[18:01] <bonjoyee> Diamondcite: but still.. the speed of the hdd is the bottleneck!
[18:01] <Diamondcite> zookalicious: That's why I mentioned it.. 1 system would read only, the other write only.
[18:01] <zookalicious> john___ what icon set are you using?
[18:01] <john___> Not a specific one
[18:01] <john___> anyone
[18:01] <john___> I just want to change only the trash icon
[18:02] <Simisu> So looking now at the link Gnea gave me i can see that i can't find the make of my laptop on the list... should a worry?
[18:02] <john___> and keep the others untouched
[18:02] <Simisu> should I worry that is...
[18:02] <zookalicious> john___ navigate to your icon folder "/usr/share/icons/[themename]" and change the icon there
[18:02] <zookalicious> you just have to put in a new icon with the same name as the old one
[18:02] <an0key> Does anyone know of a PPA for Evolution unstable, i.e. 2.9+?
[18:02] <zookalicious> and same file type I beleive
[18:02] <Diamondcite> Simisu: If you try to boot a LiveCD or LiveUSB first, it'll give you a good idea how well it would work
[18:02] <john___> I;d also like to leave the iconset untouched
[18:03] <zookalicious> john___ Just be sure to change it in all the folders. There are several different folders for the different sizes of icon (32x32 48x48 scaleable)
[18:03] <john___> for future use..
[18:03] <zookalicious> john___ just rename the old trash icon, so it wont be deleted
[18:03] <Simisu> Diamondcite: thanks, i guess it makes sense to try that first!
[18:03] <len> Greetings.
[18:03] <zookalicious> john___ if you ever need to change it back, you still have the icon. Just fix the name to get the old one back
[18:03] <Diamondcite> Simisu: Just.. it's going to be quite a bit slower.
[18:03] <john___> Then I have to do it again to go back
[18:04] <puffandstuff> I'd like to install gcc 4.5 on on my 10.10 64, il there any repositories available ?
[18:04] <AbhijiT> !info gcc
[18:04] <Diamondcite> john__: How about making a copy of the whole icon set to a new custom name? That way you only mess with the custom name one..
[18:04] <john___> Is there configuration file that changes when I change the iconset?
[18:04] <angieanni> hi all....j'd like to use vuze or gnunet..but nothing run.....someone can help me ?
[18:04] <zookalicious> Diamondcite -  just about to say that :P
[18:04] <john___> I could change the entry for the trash in there
[18:05] <puffandstuff> AbhijiT: there are some float bug in this version of gcc on 64bit platforms :(

[18:06] <namy> hey what is the average age around here?
[18:06] <zookalicious> john___ to the extent of my knowledge the icon system does not use configuration files, but rather just directly grabs the icon from their name and location in the folder

[18:08] <namy> ok guys i am new to linux and i need to learn fast . what is the best way to go about it?

[18:08] <bazhang> !manual | namy have a read
[18:08] <AbhijiT> Helbom, 11.04 is not release and its not stable. be with 10.10
[18:08] <bonjoyee> Helbom: why not install 10.10 to begin with?
[18:08] <Diamondcite> angieanni: Standby... checking something..
[18:09] <john___> I have recently discovered "conky"
[18:09] <john___> And I want to customize the desktop
[18:09] <bazhang> Helbom, sure you can upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 without a reinstall
[18:09] <ionut> namy: just... surfing trough whole his functions applications and everything... you will learn
[18:09] <Helbom> i got the disk from a friend
[18:09] <Helbom> that's why
[18:09] <len> aptitude: command not found.
[18:09] <john___> And I am stucked with the trash..
[18:09] <bazhang> !upgrade | Helbom please have a read
[18:09] <namy> thanks ionut
[18:09] <zookalicious> len - try typing what bonjoyee said into the terminal application (Applications > Accessories > Terminal)
[18:09] <eMyller> zookalicious: i didn't find any that match my needs, unfortunately. :(
[18:09] <pioruns> namy, read this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Maverick
[18:09] <Helbom> thanks for the links
[18:09] <Diamondcite> angieanni: Your startup looks significantly different from mine...
[18:09] <ionut> namy: get yourself in trouble, that's the best way to learn
[18:10] <pietr101> Hello, each time after kernel update (Maverick) my X server stops to work. I have NVIDIA Ion graphics card. To fix it i have to manually download and install the driver from nvidia.com website? how can I solve this problem?
[18:10] <bonjoyee> Helbom: but still upgrading need to download as much data as an iso would..
[18:10] <namy> pioruns i will look at it
[18:10] <len> I did, and got "aptitude: command not found"
[18:10] <len> (wow, this stuff moves fast!)
[18:10] <namy> lol ionut i already have one time too many
[18:10] <bazhang> len, use apt-get aptitude is not installed
[18:10] <len> Ok.
[18:10] <ionut> namy: hurray :))
[18:11] <namy> hurray long live ubuntu :-)
[18:11] <bonjoyee> len: install aptitude or else check in the synaptic package manager..
[18:11] <len> Typed in sudo apt-get show gnupg2 and got "E: Invalid operation show"
[18:11] <zookalicious> eMyller - Yeah that happens, I had a similar issue earlier. I'm not too sure how to remap keyboards sorry. Try looking up "Keyboard remap ubuntu"
[18:11] <Diamondcite> angieanni: http://paste.ubuntu.com/563142/    <--- this is what my startup looks like for Vuze...
[18:11] <zookalicious> len - sudo apt-get install gnupg2 -s
[18:11] <zookalicious> len - the -s will simulate downloading without actually doing it. It should tell you if it's already installed
[18:11] <len> installing aptitude . . .
[18:12] <len> Ok, zook Will try that. Hol don
[18:12] <john___> I am using awn. The icons on it change by changing the system theme. But I want to have diferent icons on awn and diferrent on the filesystem. I found out that by drag and drop an icon an an awn app I can change that specific icon only. But I cannot do that with trash (maybe because it uses two icons)
[18:12] <eMyller> zookalicious: thanks anyway. :)
[18:12] <john___> Any advice?
[18:12] <zookalicious> eMyller - no problem, good luck!
[18:12] <m15k> Diamondcite look like your port is already been used
[18:12] <Diamondcite> m15k: The problem is with angieanni not mine.
[18:12] <len> zook, says it's already the newest version
[18:12] <Diamondcite> m15k: Though it should not STOP vuze from working.
[18:12] <m15k> sorry :D
[18:12] <Zaffzaff> I have a few programs I'm running with wine, but I have to open them inside their folders, and making links wont work. What can I do to make shortcuts that work?
[18:13] <zookalicious> len - then it should be installed already. what is gnupg2?
[18:13] <LinuxNoob> send to desktop
[18:13] <LinuxNoob> zaffzaff
[18:13] <len> It's an encryption program, replacement for PGP (Pretty Good Privacy)
[18:13] <namy> guys how different is wamp from l(ubuntu)amp
[18:13] <LinuxNoob> send the .exe to ur desktop and make sure its marked as executable

[18:13] <len> infractructure.
[18:13] <leapy0yo> when shutting down ubuntu stays stuck on checking for unattended upgrades... how can i fix that?
[18:13] <mattmatt> I am trying to force the reinstall of the upstart package but it won't write over my locally-changed /etc/init/tty*.conf files. I think the root problem is file permissions. Is there a way to reset the file permissions inside /etc or to instruct apt-get or dpkg to actually overwrite all local files?
[18:14] <LinuxNoob> leapy0yo: it doesnt download any updates?
[18:14] <Zaffzaff> doesn't want to work
[18:14] <angieanni> Diamondcite: so what can j do ?..remove vuse and reinstall ?
[18:14] <jrib> mattmatt: why are you reinstalling it?
[18:14] <LinuxNoob> zaffzaff:  i dont like wine, try playonlinux  u can get it in the ubuntu software center
[18:14] <Diamondcite> angieanni: Do you have java installed?
[18:14] <len> Is there a particular folder or directory where most packages are installed? Maybe I could look there.
[18:14] <Diamondcite> angieanni: Also did it used to work?
[18:14] <LinuxNoob> zaffzaff: i couldnt get wine to run properly, playonlinux was easy as cake
[18:14] <angieanni> how can j controll it ?
[18:15] <leapy0yo> linux, it downloads, i am talking about specificly at shutdown, it hangs if i ever did an update during that session
[18:15] <Diamondcite> angieanni: vuze is a java application...
[18:15] <root> hio
[18:15] <Zaffzaff> wine is working, even on my vista it wouldn't work to drag the programs out of their folders, I had to great a shortcut to the program while the program was still in the folder. Trying to figure out how to do that here
[18:15] <m15k> angieanni Diamondcite : maybe he uses openjdk which might have some imcompatibility
[18:15] <mattmatt> jrib: I made edits to the tty*conf files and I want to revert to a more pristine state
[18:15] <Diamondcite> root, please use /nick to pick a new name before you become guest
[18:16] <angieanni> Diamondcite: sorry j'm novice
[18:16] <m15k>  angieanni : type "java- version" in command line
[18:16] <Zaffzaff> only been on linux for a day an a half as well
[18:16] <zookalicious> len - are you sure you are launching it correctly? I'm not familiar with the application so I can't say if it should be launched, or if its something that is used by another application and does not need to be launched independantly
[18:16] <LinuxNoob> zaffzaff: like i said, playonlinux
[18:16] <Helbom> uhm wth :o the installation finished and i clicked Restart Now
[18:16] <LinuxNoob> it makes everything super easy
[18:16] <len> Well, I'm guessing not LOL! I thought I was.
[18:16] <Zaffzaff> alright, I'll give it a try
[18:17] <milamber> eMyller: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaKeys
[18:17] <len> I'll fish around for it, now that I've been able to confirm it's here.
[18:17] <LinuxNoob> zaffzaff: ive only been onlinux for like a day and a half too, i got playonlinux working fast
[18:17] <m15k> angieanni : which java version is printed?
[18:17] <leapy0yo> if i ever download updates during a session, then for that session when i shutdown it says checking for any unattended upgrades... but upgrades are finished and it just hangs there without shutting down
[18:17] <angieanni> m15k: no command found
[18:17] <len> Thanks for your help. I wouldn't have been able to do that on my own.
[18:17] <Helbom> it spit out the cd and my screen reads "end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 477260
[18:17] <LinuxNoob> leapy0yo: have u tried the driver update manager?
[18:18] <m15k>  angieanni : check synaptics if you've installed java
[18:18] <jrib> mattmatt: delete the conf files in question and run «  sudo apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install PACKAGE ».  Or if you don't want to delete them, I think you can use force-confnew instead (see man dpkg)
[18:18] <Helbom> oh now it looks like it's doing something new...
[18:19] <mattmatt> jrib: sweet i'll look into that
[18:19] <LinuxNoob> alright, now i have a question for you guys, :) why does it seem that ubuntu cant handle as many processes at once ?
[18:20] <LinuxNoob> if im running like 3 things of firefox, it just seems slow, real laggish like
[18:20] <jrib> mattmatt: you can also use confask, which maybe is easier
[18:22] <bonjoyee> LinuxNoob: that also depends on your pc config..
[18:22] <LinuxNoob> i feel like even though im complete noob at ubuntu, 2nd day, im helping alot though,
[18:22] <milamber> LinuxNoob: not to start too  much of a controversy, but i'm reasonably sure most people would agree that is a firefox problem. google firefox eats memory.
[18:22] <LinuxNoob> bonjoyee: i dont see how. i can run sc2, bfbc2, a few things of firefox and music goin on same labtop in win7
[18:23] <mattmatt> jrib: nice, that worked well. thanks!
[18:23] <jrib> mattmatt: no problem
[18:23] <LinuxNoob> milamber: watch your tongue :D ff is the greatestetts :D

[18:30] <zanthir> I'm trying to use Arduino IDE with an Arduino UNO board, but the Arduino IDE in universe is out dated (version 19, not versioni 22). I'm looking for some help on installing version 22 from the tgz file.
[18:31] <zanthir> And the version 19 doesn't work with the UNO board.
[18:31] <zanthir> The tgz file doesn't have a shell script or anything.
[18:31] <zanthir> Or a READ ME.
[18:32] <Assid> anyone here use any account /expense managing apps?
[18:32] <gobbe> zanthir: well, what it contains?
[18:32] <Seveas> zanthir, there's a .deb package with version 22, might be easier for you
[18:32] <bonjoyee> !anyone > Assid
[18:33] <polleri> can anyone help me please!
[18:33] <Assid> okay how about suggesting a decent/good account expense managing app
[18:34] <Diamondcite> polleri: And how is this connected? Wireless? Wired?
[18:34] <Encry8> Hi, is there a way to use Subversion without a webhost? I want to use it on my local pc, i tried putting localhost for the URL
[18:34] <andy120880> polleri: possible mac address conflict
[18:34] <polleri> Diamondcite, when I connect thorugh wire is all fine but connecting thorugh wireless messes up the internet
[18:35] <Seveas> Encry8, though this does not answer your question, I'd suggest using git or bzr, they work just fine without a webserver.
[18:35] <polleri> andy120880, how can I check?
[18:35] <pietr101> Encry8: yes, but you need to have it configured
[18:35] <Diamondcite> polleri: And when all others are locked out of the net, can ubuntu still use it?
[18:36] <pietr101> Encry8: http://www.tonyspencer.com/2007/03/02/setup-a-subversion-server-in-4-minutes/
[18:36] <Encry8> pietr101: oh ok thanks
[18:36] <zanthir> How do you send private messages?
[18:36] <gordonjcp> Encry8: does it have to be subversion?  Git doesn't really need a server at all ;-)
[18:36] <Seveas> zanthir, /msg some_nick a message here
[18:36] <polleri> Diamondcite, no it actually doesn't disconect anyone but the internet freezes or gets really slow like 5KiB/s
[18:36] <Encry8> gordonjcp: is there a GUI for that?
[18:36] <Assid> no suggestions on a recommended app?
[18:37] <Diamondcite> polleri: I wonder if it's becase of intereference from proximity...
[18:37] <Seveas> Encry8, there's gitg
[18:37] <polleri> Diamondcite, what does that mean?
[18:37] <gordonjcp> Encry8: gitg
[18:38] <Seveas> gordonjcp, or gource ;)
[18:38] <Diamondcite> polleri: Is the ubuntu box the closest to the wireless router?
[18:38] <polleri> Diamondcite, i was using the 32bit edition before and this didn't happen it started when i switch to 64bit
[18:38] <gordonjcp> Seveas: not tried that, but then I don't use a GUI for git
[18:38] <Diamondcite> polleri: In that case.. I'm clueless sorry x.x
[18:38] <polleri> Diamondcite, mmm there is a windows computer closer but the ubuntu one is the second closest
[18:38] <Seveas> gordonjcp, gource is something ... different, try it :)
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> polleri: run, ifconfig ,to see the hardware address of the interfaces. Then see if the other systems or even the routers inter
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Internal interface have the same mac
[18:39] <Encry8> trying gource and gitg thanks both of you :)
[18:39] <polleri> ActionParsnip, should i try changing my mac address?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Polleri: if it worked i
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> In 32bit, its not mac related as the address is set in hardware when the device is made
[18:41] <bindi> !unity
[18:41] <polleri> ActionParsnip, what about 64bit
[18:41] <bindi> ehm.. how do i get unity for 10.04?
[18:41] <evanescent> my computer froze and after I restarted it, the look and feel of the UI is all wrong (e.g. the icons in the tray are different)
[18:42] <miki165> mierda
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Polleri: sounds like a bug with the 64bit version of the driver

[18:45] <gordonjcp> zookalicious: idiots
[18:45] <MikeMike1> Does anyone know anything about JACK?
[18:45] <zookalicious> gordonjcp-  apparently
[18:45] <bindi> anyone? how do you install unity on top of 10.04
[18:46] <bindi> google didnt bring up anything that works
[18:46] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: yes
[18:46] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: lots of people do
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> Bindi: are you serious?  I've inadvertantly lost my ssh daemon and so the only access I have is to the Parallels power panel, which gives me access to the filesystem but not to any sort of console. Is there a way to inject an apt-get install to reinstall the SSH daemon into a startup script somewhere?
[18:47] <bindi> eh
[18:47] <LinuxNoob> i also dont know why i have so many partitions, but they dont bug me..
[18:47] <Simisu> so should i make it smaller then? like 20?
[18:47] <v0lksman> why would my mic sometimes work and sometimes not?  just using the Sound option in Preferences...
[18:47] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: what do you need to know?
[18:47] <LinuxNoob> dualmoon: do you have a usb stick?
[18:47] <bindi> yeah zookalicious i did that
[18:47] <evanescent> how do I reset the appearance on ubuntu 10.10 to the default. my computer froze and after the reboot the icons, etc. are all different.
[18:47] <bindi> no go
[18:47] <Encry8> How do you rebuild the locate db?
[18:48] <Jordan_U> Simisu: What do you lose by making it larger?
[18:48] <a1234567890> # SuriaFM# 988 sedonbugaart
[18:48] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: a lot of my jack programs crash upon opening
[18:48] <dualMoon> LinuxNoob, I don't have physical access to the machine. It's a VPS
[18:48] <schnuffle1> Simisu: Depends on your ue case, about 5GB are enough for the system, the rest is for you to use
[18:48] <v0lksman> Encry8, updatedb I think
[18:48] <Encry8> thats it thanks
[18:48] <LinuxNoob> dualmoon: so what are u running the vm in? winxp?
[18:48] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: have you tried running them from a terminal, so you can see if they produce an error?
[18:48] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: as well as lmms
[18:48] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: chances are it's throwing an xrun and dying
[18:48] <magowiz> Hi everyone, some days ago tomboy sync with ubuntu one stopped working, I opened this bug report : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-sso-client/+bug/713757 , what should I try?
[18:48] <zookalicious> bindi - when you log in, choose Unity as your Session (right before you enter your password  on the bottom of the creen)

[18:48] <bindi> ...
[18:48] <dualMoon> LinuxNoob, no, a VPS. a virtual private server, a container in virtuozzo hosted by a company that sells them.
[18:48] <bindi> did you not read
[18:49] <LinuxNoob> you should be able to treat a vm, the same as a stand alone desktop
[18:49] <bindi> "package unity not found"
[18:49] <dualMoon> LinuxNoob, it's not a /VM/ :/
[18:49] <LinuxNoob> oh :D
[18:49] <zookalicious> bindi - then you did't add the repository properly. Also there is no reason to be rude, you're not going to get any help that way.
[18:49] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: how do i find out the command to run the programs in terminal
[18:49] <Simisu> well.... i don't know... making choices is complicated these days :O/

[18:51] <zookalicious> bind - sorry I'm not going to help you further if your going to act like that. Good luck and I hope you find out how to solve your problem
[18:52] <bindi> sigh
[18:52] <gpc> bindi: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[18:52] <bindi> gpc: still, 10.04
[18:52] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: http://paste.ubuntu.com/563158/
[18:52] <Chris> shit
[18:52] <bindi> zookalicious: i thought i made it clear that ive done exactly those 3 commands and it says package unity not found
[18:53] <bindi> so, nnngghhhh.
[18:53] <polleri> ActionParsnip, Diamondcite, thank you for the help
[18:53] <a1234567890> chien, clébard froid info' IRO tamy--
[18:53] <Assid> hrmm anyoe here tried mint.com?
[18:54] <Jordan_U> a1234567890: Stop that.
[18:55] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: did you read it?
[18:55] <zookalicious> bindi - im assuming you want the 11.04 alpha of unity, not the old netbook version. http://techie-buzz.com/foss/ubuntu-unity-2d-install.html
[18:55] <dualMoon> bindi, don't feel bad. once upon a time #ubuntu was a magical place where people would help and knew lots, nowadays it's mostly people whose only response will be "google it you noob". no offense to the people here who still follow the old #ubuntu way ofc
[18:55] <gpc> bindi: unless I am mistaken unity is not available in 10.04
[18:55] <a1234567890> 2132-3313false config2 tty113113214654- -.-
[18:55] <zookalicious> bindi - and I'm on other channels to. If you said earlier that you had already done those I didn't see
[18:56] <gpc> dualMoon: we don't tell people to google it or call them noobs. Please keep your misinformation to yourself
[18:56] <dub54> how do I install lamp-server on 10.10 ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP says up to 10.04 you can do sudo taskel install lamp-server
[18:56] <dualMoon> gpc, oh come now, I've been around long enough to see it happen ;)
[18:57] <erUSUL> dub54: and the same does not work in 10.10 ?
[18:57] <zookalicious> dualMoon - I never told him to google it. Nor did I ever call him a "noob"
[18:57] <dub54> erUSUL: taskel command not found
[18:57] <bindi> zookalicious: whats this 2D about
[18:57] <dub54> erUSUL: sorry, misread
[18:57] <erUSUL> dub54: install it
[18:57] <bindi> im sure i want the prettier version
[18:57] <dualMoon> zookalicious, I didn't say you did. didn't actually say anything about you ;)
[18:57] <v0lksman> can anyone point me to docs for troubleshooting mic issues?
[18:57] <zookalicious> dualMoon - alrighty
[18:57] <erUSUL> !sound
[18:57] <bazhang> dualMoon, chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:57] <J_C> dualmoon: sometimes we do and sometimes we don't, it depends on the qestion and wether the asker bothered to do things like read the README.1st file
[18:58] <dualMoon> wow, people got defensive quick x:
[18:58] <J_C> not really
[18:58] <dualMoon> anyways, anyone know of a way to inject an apt-get into a startup script?
[18:59] <J_C> exec apt-get
[18:59] <bindi> zookalicious: i take it this 2D is a wrecked version
[18:59] <J_C> if it's bash
[18:59] <bindi> can't i get the full one? <.<
[18:59] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: right, looks like you can't start jack for some reason
[18:59] <J_C> depends on the script
[18:59] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToJACKConfiguration
[18:59] <c3l> I got a dvd with drm (I assume), ubuntu doesnt seam to recognize it at all. is there some way to play drm video from dvd in ubuntu?
[18:59] <dub54> erUSUL: sudo apt-get install tasksel says could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock ?
[18:59] <zookalicious> bindi - I'm not sure where I read it, but I seem to recall that the 3D version wasn't availible yet for Maverick or Karmic
[18:59] <erUSUL> dub54: do you have synaptic or the ubuntu software center running?
[18:59] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: read this -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation#Real-Time%20Support
[19:00] <dub54> erUSUL: synaptic
[19:00] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: you do not need a realtime kernel, you just need to allow your user realtime capabilities
[19:00] <dualMoon> well, like i was saying earlier, i only really have access to the filesystem at this point. i can create or edit a file, but where would i need to put it so that it ran automatically if i restart the container?
[19:00] <J_C> erUSUL: that means that apt is already running, maybe you have synaptic opened or update opened?
[19:00] <zookalicious> bindi - im double checking
[19:00] <bindi> zookalicious: sure :p whats with all those guides about unity for 10.04 then
[19:00] <MikeMike1> gordonjcpgordonfcp- thanks! I guess i forgot to mention i run ubuntu studio haha
[19:01] <schnuffle1> c3l: you need  libdvdcss2
[19:01] <zookalicious> bindi - those refer to the old netbook edition of unity
[19:01] <zookalicious> bindi - it used mutter instead of compiz and was not that great
[19:01] <erUSUL> dub54: you can use synaptic to install the lamp server. go to Edit>Mar packages by task
[19:01] <bindi> i see
[19:01] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: okay, that shouldn't make a big difference ;-)
[19:01] <erUSUL> dub54: i thought you were in a server with no gui
[19:01] <zookalicious> bindi - yeah, I just double checked. 3D unity is not backported. So you can only get it on the 11.04 alpha
[19:02] <schnuffle1> c3l: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/musicvideophotos/C/video-dvd.html
[19:02] <bindi> zookalicious: meh, i'll leave it to be then
[19:02] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: also, somtimes my lmms crashes because of "segmentation failure"
[19:02] <zookalicious> bindi - ok. If you want to try the 2D version though, its two commands located on this page. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/01/unity-2d-gets-a-ppa/
[19:02] <zookalicious> bindi - sudo add-apt-repository ppa:unity-2d-team/unity-2d-daily && sudo apt-get update
[19:02] <zookalicious> bindi - and sudo apt-get install unity-qt-default-settings
[19:03] <LinuxNoob> how do you ping in terminal?
[19:03] <daniel__> does chromium have got WebGL support?
[19:03] <bindi> zookalicious: yeah i saw that :p but cba
[19:03] <zookalicious> bindi - but thats only the 2D so you'll probably just want to wait
[19:03] <bindi> i will
[19:03] <zookalicious> bindi - alrighty
[19:03] <dub54> erUSUL: i don't see mark packages by task
[19:03] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: lmms does that a bit
[19:03] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: frankly lmms is a bit crap
[19:03] <erUSUL> dub54: well my version of synaptic is in spanish... but it has to be something similar
[19:04] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: is there a better DAW that I can use a midi with?
[19:04] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: no idea, I use Ardour for recording but I don't use a PC-based sequencer
[19:04] <erUSUL> dub54: it is Edit>Mark Packages by Task...
[19:05] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: whats a PC based sequencer?
[19:05] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: a MIDI sequencer that runs on a PC
[19:05] <gordonjcp> or other computer
[19:05] <gordonjcp> as opposed to a hardware standalone sequencer like an Alesis MMT-8
[19:05] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: ohhh yeah i forgot lmms can run on pc
[19:06] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp; would you know how to configure midi devices?
[19:06] <c3l> schnuffle1: oh, thanks
[19:06] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: i have a great keyboard I would love to start using with linux
[19:06] <dualMoon> alright how about this: is there a place that linux will read and automatically execute bash files at startup?
[19:06] <schnuffle1> MikeMike1: have a look at http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/apps/start
[19:06] <haakon_> testing
[19:06] <jrib> dualMoon: what do you want to accomplish exactly?
[19:06] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: you might also want to try #ubuntustudio and possibly #lad ;-)
[19:06] <v0lksman> So I have an HDA ATI SB Realtek ALC892, and can only get the mic to work once in a blue moon...I've tried everything including upgrading to Maverick from Lucid cause there was a known issue with the older kernel.  Still no reliable mic...I really need a mic on this machine...any ideas how to work around this?
[19:06] <dub54> erUSUL: think I got it working but I don't have permission to write to var/www ?
[19:06] <MikeMike1> i didint know those existed hahah
[19:06] <eXpLoD> how can i make a shortcut or something like this so it would run a command in a terminal but in background?
[19:07] <dualMoon> jrib, i want to reinstall SSH when I only have access to the filesystem of my VPS container.
[19:07] <schnuffle1> dualMoon: at boot there is /etc/rc.local, at login threre's your .bashrc
[19:07] <MikeMike1> whats #lad
[19:07] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: the latter is the Linux Audio Developer IRC channel, but most of the devs will help out users
[19:07] <erUSUL> dualMoon: call them from /etc/rc.local
[19:07] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: you pretty much just connect up MIDI and it works
[19:07] <MikeMike1> i herard its a process i have to do some coding with
[19:07] <LinuxNoob> okay guys ive gotten to this, if i want to ping google.com
[19:07] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: if you're using USB MIDI adaptors there is some clever tweaking you can to to ensure they always stay in the same "slot"
[19:07] <Luvz2drv> I need help with installing 10.10 with my setup
[19:08] <jrib> dualMoon: reinstalling ssh is unlikely to change anything really; why would you want to reinstall ssh?
[19:08] <LinuxNoob> sudo ping -c 5 www.google.com
[19:08] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: yup its usb
[19:08] <LinuxNoob> luvz2drv: whats goin on
[19:08] <jazeery> hi
[19:08] <daniel__> How can I enable WebGL for chromium?
[19:08] <dualMoon> jrib, because when i was doing cleanup it got uninstalled D:
[19:08] <jazeery> hi all
[19:08] <LinuxNoob> luvz2drv: whats the problem ur havin with 10.10
[19:08] <jazeery> all of theme t
[19:08] <jrib> dualMoon: I see.    I have a entiry different drive for ubunto set aside that is seen but it will not boot just get a _
[19:09] <Seven_Six_Two> daniel__, you have to do it from the command line
[19:09] <jazeery> hi linuxnoob
[19:09] <dualMoon> schnuffle1, no physical access :P
[19:09] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: what kind of keyboard do you have?
[19:09] <jazeery> how is things
[19:09] <v0lksman> dualMoon, does your VPS provider not give you a browser based console to your slice?
[19:09] <schnuffle1> dualMoon: No rescue system?
[19:09] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: akai mpk49
[19:10] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: cool
[19:10] <dualMoon> v0lksman, yes and no. it's a java version of an SSH client, which of course doesn't help, haha
[19:10] <jazeery> where can i get the java for ubinto
[19:10] <gordonjcp> MikeMike1: as far as I know, if you plug that in it should just appear as a MIDI device
[19:10] <xangua> !java | jazeery
[19:10] <Seven_Six_Two> jazeery, it's in synaptic
[19:10] <v0lksman> hahhaa...and they don't give you a special boot partition in case you pooch your machine? (like finnix?)
[19:10] <v0lksman> dualMoon, ^
[19:10] <dualMoon> v0lksman, no that i've found yet.
[19:11] <v0lksman> dualMoon, can I ask who the provider is?>
[19:11] <MikeMike1> gordonjcp: yeah but it wont work with some applications like lmms, virtual keyboard, or drum machine
[19:11] <jazeery> thanks
[19:11] <jazeery> all
[19:11] <dualMoon> v0lksman, just the browser access to the filesystem. there's a way to install apps, like an apt-get web frontend, but there's an error with it ofc
[19:11] <dualMoon> v0lksman, it's VPSland
[19:12] <MrMintanet> Can someone tell me how to install X3: Reunion?  I have downloaded it from Demonoid, and want to install it.  I have no idea how to get the setup file to run.  Can someone help?
[19:12] <MrMintanet> I have tried chmod +x setup.sh but that did not work.
[19:12] <daniel__> hm, it doesn't work for me
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> !piracy | MrMintanet
[19:12] <v0lksman> dualMoon, bummer...not that it will help much now but Linode is the king of VPS hosts...you wouldn't be in this mess with them...of course that doesn't help you at all and I'm a dick for saying so... :P
[19:12] <MrMintanet> I purchased the game already.
[19:12] <MrMintanet> I just don't know how to install it.
[19:13] <dualMoon> v0lksman, no, it's fine, i'll look into them in the future for sure :D
[19:13] <Seven_Six_Two> MrMintanet, what error do you get when you run setup.sh?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: ask in #winehq
[19:13] <MrMintanet> This game is for Linux
[19:13] <MrMintanet> It doesn't require Wine.
[19:14] <daniel__> are you root by installing this?
[19:14] <MrMintanet> Yes
[19:14] <MrMintanet> How do I run an "executable" file?
[19:14] <MrMintanet> It isn't .exe
[19:14] <MrMintanet> I had to right click, and change it's permissions to "run as an executable"
[19:14] <Seven_Six_Two> MrMintanet, precede the file with a   ./
[19:14] <theSoundEngineer> sh ./
[19:15] <theSoundEngineer> or just ./
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: as you have purchased the game, the ideal support will be from the game support chan
[19:15] <Seven_Six_Two> ActionParsnip, unless it's giving an ubuntu related error
[19:15] <MrMintanet> I prefer to ask the IRC, if that is ok, ActionParsnip.  I don't mean to cause any trouble by asking how to install a video game...
[19:16] <dualMoon> MrMintanet, it's fine. what files do you have available in that package? is there a setup.sh or some such?
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> Channels and helplines. You also pay for support and updates when you buy software
[19:16] <MrMintanet> Yes
[19:16] <MrMintanet> There is a setup.sh
[19:16] <schnuffle1> MrMintanet: just answer the questions :) what happens when when you execute sh /path/to/setup.sh?
[19:16] <ScislaC> I can't pull some magic to dist-upgrade to 64-bit from 32, can I?
[19:17] <eXpLoD> how can i run somethinf through terminal so it runs in background,so i can close the terminal emulator after then without closing the app?
[19:18] <dualMoon> eXpLoD, often you can add a space then a "&" after the command
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> Seven_Six_Two: still supported by the makers
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: its
[19:18] <schnuffle1> eXpLoD: just add a & to the end of the command like dhcpd &
[19:19] <dualMoon> eXpLoD, sometimes it won't always work and apps bind to that terminal anyway, but for the most part it should
[19:19] <dualMoon> eXpLoD, you can also use the run box if you use Gnome
[19:19] <MrMintanet> schnuffle1,  It launches some installer for an "Update" program.
[19:19] <MrMintanet> It seems like it is skipping the installation of the actual game.
[19:20] <schnuffle1> eXpLoD: if you don't wnat to bother with output from your app ou need to redirect stdout and tderr
[19:20] <dualMoon> since I don't have a linux box right in front of me, would someone be so kind as to give me the exact name of the default ssh daemon package? x:
[19:20] <eXpLoD> how can i make a script(say i want to run codeblocks by that alt+f2 dialog).How can i make a script like that and add it to mah panel?
[19:20] <tzaeru> hm. updating ubuntu staid at "Getting new packages" and has been there for past 30 minutes, even tho all packages have been fetched.
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> MrMintanet: its not the game its how you got it which screams piracy which is not endorsed. You should have gone to the developer site and requested a redownload which is absolutely fine
[19:20] <tzaeru> is it actually doing something or shouldn't this happen? >_>
[19:20] <dualMoon> eXpLoD, just right click your panel and do "add launcher" iirc
[19:20] <Gambit> Hello everyone. I'm looking for some help with Ubuntu One. It constantly shows disconnected as my status, but when I hit connect for this machine on the devices tab it does nothing, and just comes right back.
[19:21] <Jordan_U> Gambit: Try asking in #ubuntuone
[19:21] <dougl> does anyone know how to use an ipod touch with ubuntu?
[19:21] <lexvegas> dualMoon, as in to install a ssh server?
[19:21] <Gambit> I have fully reinstalled the entirety of ubuntuone twice following these instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8146023&postcount=2
[19:21] <dualMoon> aye, lexvegas
[19:21] <Gambit> Jordan_U: Oh thanks. I didn't realize it had its own channel.
[19:21] <Jordan_U> Gambit: You're welcome.
[19:21] <schnuffle1> dualMoon: openssh-server
[19:21] <lexvegas> dualMoon, it is just ssh that installs the server and the client is already installed
[19:21] <dualMoon> ahh, thanks doll
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> eXpLoD: the terminal is the parent process so killing the parent kills the processes it spawns
[19:22] <eXpLoD> yeah but i dont like having a terminal always opened
[19:22] <lexvegas> dualMoon, and apparently openssh-server haha
[19:22] <schnuffle1> eXpLoD: could screen be an option
[19:22] <dualMoon> lexvegas, no worries hon, package names can been, well, insane
[19:23] <dualMoon> s/been/be
[19:23] <bonjoyee> does dropbox have a file sharing link?
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> eXpLoD: create a launcher to run the command or a script and it will run. The parent will be the desktop
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> bonjoyee: yes
[19:24] <LinuxNoob> my friend was telling me that i need to learn how to make force application stoppers, any truth in this?
[19:25] <DarsVaeda> hi, i have file permission issues, i setup a apache webserver and can access the "it works" file via browser, but if i create a directory in the same location as that file i always get access denied
[19:25] <lexvegas> LinuxNoob, as in how to stop a non responsive application?
[19:25] <DarsVaeda> aka 403 forbidden
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> LinuxNoob: for what reason?
[19:25] <maxyjj> hi all
[19:25] <LinuxNoob> lexvegas: correct
[19:25] <LinuxNoob> like ctrl alt delete for win
[19:25] <bonjoyee> ActionParsnip: where i can send a link to a friend..and the friend can download the file off the internet without logging in/any extra setup?
[19:25] <LinuxNoob> right click the dl link and copy link as
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> bonjoyee: yes
[19:26] <safetynet> Hi Is there a way to set the "Update Manager" to run at a scheduled date or time instead of doing a manual check ? ?
[19:26] <bonjoyee> ActionParsnip: alright..thanks!! i wonder if adrive is good..it offers 50GB!!
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> safetynet: create a script to run updates unattended
[19:26] <maxyjj> i got a problem with dns cache want to clean it, but its not having non of it every time i typr the commnd its say ok but everey thing still the same any one have an idia what it could be
[19:26] <RishavT> DarsVaeda: try right-clicking the files in the folder, properties, permissions, and set the "others" (or everyone else) part to "read". That should let apache read the files.
[19:27] <paradigmflow> Anyone running natty
[19:27] <paradigmflow> Anyone running natty?
[19:27] <lexvegas> LinuxNoob, its not hard http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-different-ways-to-end-unresponsive-programs-in-linux/ here is an article showing 6 different ways. I use killall the most probably, and then kill in combination with "ps Aaux" for more precise actions
[19:27] <LinuxNoob> natty?
[19:27] <minimec> paradigmflow: /join #ubuntu+1
[19:27] <LinuxNoob> when i hear natty i think natural light :D
[19:27] <DarsVaeda> i did a "sudo chown -R root:www-data cms/" cms is the folder i created
[19:27] <paradigmflow> :)
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> safetynet: you can then cron the script to run as root and updates will happen magically
[19:28] <LinuxNoob> or..
[19:28] <DarsVaeda> also a "sudo chmod -R 775 cms/"
[19:28] <LinuxNoob> u can go to update manager
[19:28] <LinuxNoob> click on settings, and look at updates lol
[19:28] <DarsVaeda> the cms folder actually has "more" rights than the index file, still i get the 403
[19:28] <DarsVaeda> i dont get it
[19:28] <safetynet> ActionParsnip, Ah sorry not that good at doing that yet - is there possibly another easier alternative doing it with a script?
[19:28] <kob> hi all, anyone running TOR ? I'd need a running bridge to connect to the network ....
[19:28] <LinuxNoob> set to "install updates without conformation, and download all updates in background, check for updates  daily
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> LinuxNoob: lucid comes from light. Natty means a bit crazy or messy
[19:28] <bullgard4> '~$ locale; ...; LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8; ...' Why does '~$ echo $LC_MESSAGES' not produce any output?
[19:29] <chaos2358> is there a way to change the "computer name" that was set when ubuntu 10.10 was installed?
[19:29] <LinuxNoob> o
[19:29] <LinuxNoob> chaos2358: yeah
[19:29] <LinuxNoob> go to system/admin
[19:29] <bullgard4> chaos2358: Yes.
[19:29] <LinuxNoob> users and groups, and advanced settings
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> safetynet: if you can hang 5 i can give you mine. If you can use terminal you can script
[19:30] <minimec> chaos2358: That is easy. Open /etc/hostname --> sudo nano /etc/hostname
[19:30] <jrib> bullgard4: that environment variable is only a way to override the MESSAGES format chosen by LANG (I THINK; not sure)
[19:30] <LinuxNoob> safteynet what was ur question again?
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> !hostname
[19:30] <chaos2358> LinuxNoob ok thank you. I just did a reinstall to fix some corruption and i made some typos
[19:30] <LinuxNoob> did it work:)?
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> chaos2358: open both files first, the
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> Then change
[19:32] <Dan_> Blaa
[19:32] <LinuxNoob> i love linux now :) people are so nice, and even though i have no idea what im doin in ubuntu, i get all the help i need, and  i can still give help :D
[19:32] <chaos2358> ActionParsnip, LinuxNoob, minimec, thanks guys. I got it now.
[19:32] <MikeMike1> I need some help!
[19:32] <LinuxNoob> chaos2358: glad to hear it
[19:33] <MikeMike1> my browsers volume is significantly lower than the master
[19:33] <LinuxNoob> mikemike1: dont say you need help, ask question, if someone knows they will help :)
[19:33] <safetynet> ActionParsnip, that would be very cool - will wait thanks
[19:33] <RishavT> DarsVaeda: try "sudo chmod -R 755 cms/*", It worked for me (just tested it right now. I 1st changed the permissions so that I get the forbidden error and then executed that command. It worked) If it still doesn't work, I really dont know why its not. :(
[19:33] <daniel__> i can't regulate the volume by scrolling over the sound menu, how can I fix it?
[19:33] <DarsVaeda> symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /var/lib/typo3-dummy/index.php
[19:33] <LinuxNoob> click on the sound thing
[19:33] <DarsVaeda> try to install typo3...something is up with that dummy
[19:33] <LinuxNoob> and click on sound preferences
[19:34] <dimmortal> why oh why is the me menu dependent on gwibber?? :(
[19:34] <bullgard4> jrib: Hm. And what is the proper way to change '~$ locale; ...; LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8; ...' to '~$ locale; ...; LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8; ...'?
[19:34] <safetynet> ActionParsnip, I can get around in Terminal ok for a neub
[19:34] <LinuxNoob> safetynet: what was ur question again, i found the answer for ya, but i dont remember what the question is haha
[19:35] <Rose> b
[19:35] <knightoface> testing
[19:35] <MikeMike1> does anyone know how to fix a browsers volume?
[19:35] <LinuxNoob> mikemike1
[19:35] <daniel__> LinuxNoob: I mean to regulate the volume with the scroll whell, since unity 2d it doesnt work
[19:36] <LinuxNoob> next to the time on the top, see the volume mixer?
[19:36] <jrib> bullgard4: well you can set LANG in /etc/environment if you want to change your locale.  If you just want to change a specific LC_ then set that in /etc/environment (see « man locale »).  Also, the default locale seems to come from /etc/default/locale.  Might be worthwhile to search for a locale page on help.ubuntu.com as I do not know much about this
[19:36] <root_> wahts up?
[19:36] <MikeMike1> nope
[19:36] <LinuxNoob> the thing next to the mail
[19:36] <LinuxNoob> looks like a speaker
[19:37] <Raydiation> hi where is the channel for developing for ubuntu? packaging debs etc
[19:37] <safetynet> LinuxNoob, Would like to have the "Update Manager" run  automatically to remind me to do updates - instead of having to remember to do it manually.
[19:37] <LinuxNoob> safetynet: alright go to system/admin
[19:37] <LinuxNoob> and then update manager
[19:37] <safetynet> LinuxNoob, Sometimes in general it will come up an remind me but not all the time.
[19:37] <safetynet> ok hang on
[19:37] <MrMintanet> Can someone tell me how I can mount a folder to behave as a Disk?
[19:38] <LinuxNoob> safetynet: system/admin/updatemanager click on settings
[19:38] <LinuxNoob> mrmintanet, ur talking about an ISO file?
[19:38] <MrMintanet> No, actually, it is a folder with an "autorun" file
[19:38] <MrMintanet> I need this folder to be the root of a disk image
[19:38] <LinuxNoob> hmm, so when u open the file or unzip it it auto runs?
[19:38] <eXpLoD> what is the best terminal web browser?
[19:38] <StevenX> Hello all. I'm looking for a very lightweight way to run a linux distro inside windows, but only the shell. (I still need to be able to use apt-get to install stuff). Any ideas?
[19:39] <MrMintanet> putty?
[19:39] <LinuxNoob> stevenx: wubi.com
[19:39] <erUSUL> StevenX: Vbox
[19:39] <daniel__> eXpLod: maybe w3m, i dont know anyone else
[19:39] <MrMintanet> So, does anyone know how to create a disk image based on a folder?
[19:39] <StevenX> thanks for the suggestion LinuxNoob & erUSUL. I'll check it out.
[19:39] <dimmortal> MrMintanet: archive it and mount the archive
[19:39] <eXpLoD> i know w3m,i was hoping for something else,maybe more advanced
[19:39] <LinuxNoob> stevenx or u can always run from a 1gb flashdrive
[19:40] <LinuxNoob> i do that from my school computers
[19:40] <kob>  hi all, anyone running TOR ? I'd need a running bridge to connect to the network
[19:40] <kunwon0>  /!\  BREAKING NEWS  /!\  All freenoders should be made aware that ##politics is the channel to be at.  Come and join the politics party!
[19:40] <LinuxNoob> lets me access all their locked down c drive files too :D
[19:40] <safetynet> LinuxNoob, Thanks - good to go - ubuntu chat support is great!
[19:41] <bullgard4> jrib: I will bravely go your way. --  Thank you very much for your advice and help.
[19:41] <LinuxNoob> kob: whats TOR? ive never heard of that
[19:41] <NixGeek> !spam | kunwon0
[19:41] <LinuxNoob> safteynet: no problem man
[19:41] <MrMintanet> dimmortal, trying that now.  Hopefully this works.  :)
[19:41] <safetynet> later on
[19:42] <schnuffle1> LinuxNoob: its a proxy network for anonymous web surfing
[19:42] <daniel__> LinuxNoob: its for anonymous browsing
[19:42] <StevenX> erUSUL: which would be more lightweight. Running wubi or running a virtual box?
[19:42] <jrib> bullgard4: note if you login through gdm, you can just pick your locale at the login screen
[19:42] <LinuxNoob> oh okay
[19:42] <kob> right!
[19:42] <amit> can i use my  PC as server if i configure a NFS server on it?
[19:42] <LinuxNoob> so its browser based proxy?
[19:42] <LinuxNoob> or are u port forwarding through that server
[19:42] <kob> i'm located in cn and i need such a tool to access the entire network
[19:42] <bullgard4> jrib: I know that. This is not my present problem at hand.
[19:42] <schnuffle1> StevenX: Wubi will be more liht weight bot there seems to be alot of problems with it
[19:42] <erUSUL> StevenX: with wubi you can not run them side by side; you have to dual boot
[19:43] <LinuxNoob> schnuffle1: what are the problems with it, i never noticed anything o_o
[19:43] <erUSUL> StevenX: i dunno if that's ok or not
[19:43] <schnuffle1> StevenX: theres colinux and andLinux as well
[19:43] <kob> port forwarding
[19:43] <jrib> bullgard4: ok and /etc/environment is system wide, so for just one user probably ~/.profile is more appropriate
[19:43] <schnuffle1> LinuxNoob: kernel updates and grub updates seem to corrupt it
[19:44] <LinuxNoob> didnt know that :D
[19:44] <RishavT> StevenX: since you want just command-line, why dont you try cygwin? Its for running linux programs in windows.
[19:44] <LinuxNoob> i only have ubuntu on this laptop. so alot of stuff doesnt apply :D
[19:44] <jrib> bullgard4: anyway, good luck (I'm off)
[19:44] <bonjoyee> ActionParsnip: using dropbox...if i  put files in the public folder..are they accessible to all people..like from google searches..or just to ones i send the link?
[19:44] <MrMintanet> Why don't you use Putty?????
[19:44] <jcasex> I jsut dropped in an nvidia gtx460, and I am at a loss to setup twinview. Only refrences I can find are years out of date. Can anyone assist me?
[19:44] <LinuxNoob> hmmm
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> bonjoyee: just the ones you give the links to
[19:44] <bullgard4> jrib: ty
[19:45] <LinuxNoob> jcasex: by drop u mean installed right :D?
[19:45] <bonjoyee> ActionParsnip: thanks
[19:45] <StevenX> schnuffle1: thanks. I'll look into those. Any preference on your part? I'll look into the pros and cons of each myself.
[19:45] <MrMintanet> How do you mount a folder as a drive?
[19:45] <dimmortal> right cclick and select mount
[19:45] <dimmortal> after you archived it
[19:46] <MrMintanet> Ugh, this archive is taking FOREVER
[19:46] <MrMintanet> Sad sad
[19:46] <kob> LinuxNoob: if you have time to kill and want to help me, i can help you to set it up ...
[19:46] <LinuxNoob> kob: the network x_x?
[19:46] <jcasex> LinuxNoob: yes
[19:47] <LinuxNoob> jcasex: so ur trying to view through 2 screens at once? or slide screen?
[19:48] <Wipster> hey all. I am trying to make virtual machine using virtualbox OSE, however when I go to make a new harddrive the progress hangs at 0%, the thread goes to 100% cpu and is futex_wait_queue_me and doesn't respond, I have removed OSE and reinstalled clearing the folder but nothing
[19:48] <jcasex> side to side i think i got it
[19:48] <Jayro> hi, i have a sound problem. After my computer has been on for a while the sound gets fuzzy and robotic. But when i reboot it goes back to normal. Is there a way i can fix this so i am not always rebooting?
[19:48] <jcasex> yeo got it
[19:49] <jcasex> ive heard horror stories of doing it on linux, heh whoops
[19:49] <jcasex> my bad, 1 click and done
[19:49] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: is the partition healthy which you are making the drive on?
[19:49] <zookalicious> Jayro - have you tried the speakers on another computer / operating system
[19:49] <Jayro> yes, the speakers are fine
[19:49] <LinuxNoob> yeah linux is really similar to windows its easy
[19:49] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, I believe is it, its my / partition
[19:50] <zookalicious> Jayro - and the audio is affected on all applications?
[19:50] <Jayro> !sound
[19:50] <LinuxNoob> i thought it was going to be hella hard for the switch, but alot of things are almost the same.
[19:50] <daniel__> How can i enable the alt+f2 dialog?
[19:50] <daniel__> I'm using Unity 2D
[19:50] <ActionParsnip> Wipster: i suggest you fsck it to be sure, you may also want to test your RAM. You could also add the virtualbox repo and install the 4.0 non-open version
[19:50] <Jayro> yes it is in all aplications
[19:50] <morphles> what hell.. how i dissable frickin nouveaou driver in 10.04.... rmmod does not let me remove that, since it is in use, by god knows what, i blacklisted it, and some other modules that people suggested in forums, rebuild initramfs, even booted to recovery mode, its still there... what a f....
[19:51] <LinuxNoob> wheres the driver located?
[19:51] <zookalicious> Jayro - hmm im not quite sure sorry
[19:51] <RishavT> MrMintanet: just fyi, if archiving is still taking time, creating just a .tar will be faster since it doesn't compresses much.
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> morphles: you can run:  echo "blacklist nouveau" | sudo tell /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau.conf   and it wil blacklist the driver
[19:51] <dimmortal> Jayro: I had that problem in pidgin.. I changed its default sound output from default to alsa and that fixed it
[19:51] <hdtdi> where ubuntu usually installs a programs? you know like in windows C:\program files. Cause i have a .sh program that wants me to say the path where the program to be installed.
[19:51] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, can I fsck a mounted partition or do I need to live cd it?
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> morphles: or you can uninstall the package which provides it in apt-get / software centre / whatever
[19:52] <morphles> so it uses personal blacklist conf?
[19:52] <jcasex> LinuxNoob: linux is far easier than windows, windows now adays is confusing, havent used it in so long
[19:52] <morphles> why simple blacklist.conf isint enough for it?
[19:52] <linxeh> is there a way to download a package and all its dependencies to copy to another machine for offline install? ideally from a different version than is installed (I'd like to get all the packages for meld for 10.04, but I'm running 10.10)
[19:52] <genii-around> hdtdi: /usr/bin is probably best
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> morphles: no, but the command won't impact on any other of the conf files ;)
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> !fsck | Wipster
[19:52] <hdtdi> genii-around, isnt that just for the executable files? i have a whole dir with files..
[19:53] <LinuxNoob> jcasex: eh, ive only been on for 2 days i know windows in and out, but linux...its mars to me still
[19:53] <zookalicious> linxeh - its not advisable to use files for one system on another system
[19:53] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, thanks!
[19:53] <zookalicious> linxeh - your best option would be to download the binaries for the system you want to install it on or use the source code
[19:53] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, will be back with results and if that helped
[19:54] <genii-around> hdtdi: Even in Windows, the C:\program files is not where everything goes to. The same here. But mostly user binaries in /usr/bin system binaries in /bin and so on.
[19:54] <genii-around> !hfs
[19:54] <linxeh> zookalicious: you didnt read what I was asking
[19:55] <genii-around> oops wrong factoid
[19:55] <dimmortal> linxeh you can look up all the dependencies and dl the .deb files via web browser
[19:55] <linxeh> dimmortal: I'm not going to waste hours doing that
[19:55] <robberducky> quit #ubuntu
[19:55] <guntbert> !offline | linxeh
[19:55] <LinuxNoob> linxeh: ur trying to copy files from one hdd to put on another hdd to run them like they were installed on that hdd?
[19:55] <linxeh> I cant be the first person that wants to do this, without mirroring the entire repo
[19:55] <asa> could anybody help me out plz
[19:55] <linxeh> LinuxNoob: no
[19:56] <guntbert> !ask | asa
[19:56] <LinuxNoob> asa: ask
[19:56] <dimmortal> or you can add thr repo in synaptic and when you click apply.. select the box that says dl the files only
[19:56] <asa> k
[19:56] <linxeh> LinuxNoob: I wish to download all the deb files for a particular package (and all dependencies) so that I can copy them to another machine that doesnt have internet access and install on there. the only issue is that the offline machine is 10.04, and I run 10.10
[19:56] <asa> i am having problems connecting to a wireless network
[19:56] <RishavT> linxeh: try this: first, type in "sudo apt-get install <packagename>". Before it asks for confirmation, it'll list all the packages to install. copy them, and then kill the apt process (ctrl+c). then type in "sudo aptitude download <paste here". Should work.
[19:56] <asa> ubuntu 10.04
[19:56] <guntbert> linxeh: did you see the hint from ubottu ?
[19:57] <LinuxNoob> asa: alright u have the hardware to connect? bluetooth addapters?
[19:57] <linxeh> guntbert: yes, will try that, thankyou
[19:57] <asa> yes
[19:57] <magog> sh@m@sh
[19:57] <genii-around> hdtdi: For a comprehensive but tedious document on the directory structure standard see http://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy.html
[19:57] <linxeh> RishavT: thanks, will try that too
[19:57] <magog> join #lisp
[19:57] <MrMintanet> How do you mount an archived tar.gz file?
[19:57] <hdtdi> genii-around, thanks
[19:57] <kob>  hi all, anyone running TOR ? I'd need a running bridge to connect to the network
[19:58] <dimmortal> right click and select "mount"
[19:58] <asa> linuxnoob?
[19:58] <MrMintanet> dimmortal,  That isn't an option from the context
[19:58] <Hilikus> does anyone know of a program in ubuntu to plot trees? huge trees, ~500k nodes
[19:58] <briahn10> does apt-cache update itself for ubuntu? seems like a particular version of libmysqlclient-dev is missing from ubuntu's ftp
[19:59] <LinuxNoob> asa: i sent u a message
[19:59] <LinuxNoob> see towards the bottom
[19:59] <Jayro> !panels
[19:59] <MrMintanet> How do you mount an archived tar.gz file?
[19:59] <asa> k
[19:59] <RishavT> MrMintanet: right click, open with archive mounter.
[19:59] <asa> i am new here
[20:00] <MrMintanet> This is a 6GB Archive.... Taking forever to open...
[20:01] <RishavT> lol
[20:01] <StevenX> schnuffle1: Thanks for pointing me to andLinux. I think its exactly what I'm looking for.
[20:01] <OerHeks> 6 gb can take some time, true MrMintanet
[20:01] <MrMintanet> RishavT, Ok, it's open now.  Now what?
[20:01] <StevenX> I downloaded the "minimalist" version running XCFE instead of KDE.
[20:01] <briahn10> ( command that's failing for me... apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev )
[20:02] <lolmac34> hi, which is better ntfs or ext4?
[20:02] <lolmac34> i was thinking of which one choosing
[20:02] <RishavT> MrMintanet: you selected archive mouter, eh? Then you should see a volume mounted (which contains ur archive).
[20:02] <MrMintanet> I opened "Archive Manager".  I do not have Archive Mounter.
[20:03] <h-dee> lolmac34: I'd go for ext4...bt its nt compatible with WINDOWS based system...so if you need a drive for common data for both Linux and Windows...go for NTFS
[20:03] <MrMintanet> RishavT, Ok, I think I'm seeing it.  One sec.
[20:03] <lee__> exit
[20:03] <RishavT> MeMintaned: You should have it in "open with other application"
[20:03] <MrMintanet> Now, how can I launch the "setup" executable?
[20:03] <RishavT> *MrMintanet: you should see it in open with other application
[20:04] <MrMintanet> RishavT,  It is mounted now.  But can you tell me how to open up a setup file that is located within it?
[20:04] <fede> hi, how can I add read and write permission to all the files of a folder using chmod?
[20:04] <RishavT> MrMintanet: Uh I dont know :P is it a .sh file? then just run it from the terminal. (you shouldn't need to mount it to run a .sh file btw)
[20:05] <MrMintanet> How do I get to this mounted file now?
[20:05] <eXpLoD> what is the best terminal web browser?
[20:05] <MrMintanet> It isn't listed in my /media/ folder
[20:05] <potato> is there a ##ubuntu?
[20:05] <genii-around> eXpLoD: lynx/links is most widely used
[20:05] <potato> or any other linux channels?
[20:05] <fede> I need to change the permissions of a folder and it's contents under /opt
[20:05] <RishavT> MrMintanet: yea. it'll be there. cd /media/blahblah
[20:05] <FuZion755> Hi there, I'm having trouble getting a dot matrix printer to work with fedora, the printer is connected a usb-parallel cable, and it is only found/recognized sometimes.  Has anyone had any experience with this printers and parallel to usb cables?
[20:05] <Wipster> ActionParsnip, no error where reported on the drive it just cant make a fixed size harddrive.... also the -F flag in shutdown is gone, might wana ammend the bot :)
[20:05] <RishavT> MrMintanet: then run the setup file.
[20:06] <RishavT> MrMintanet: just 1 question. why did u need to mount it to run the setup file? you could have just cd into the folder and run it from there.
[20:07] <MrMintanet> It won't launch because it is giving me this error:  "cd: 6: can't cd to ./.data"
[20:07] <eXpLoD> are thre any good termianl web browser except w3p and links
[20:08] <marcin__> exit
[20:08] <rumpe1> eXpLoD, lynx
[20:08] <guntbert> eXpLoD: w3m
[20:08] <dimmortal> lol
[20:08] <RishavT> MrMintanet: Uhm I dont know what that's happening. perhaps there's a folder ".data" in the mounted archive. try editing the setup file and replacing ./.data to .data
[20:09] <magicianlord> is the new openoffice suite worthupgrading, or better to remove it and put in gnumeric?
[20:09] <genii-around> rumpe1: lynx package is just symbolic to links
[20:10] <Burzmali> Hi all, Does anyone know if Canonical has published their plan to make the "For Purchase" section of the Ubuntu Software Center not suck?
[20:10] <guntbert> !ot | Burzmali
[20:10] <rumpe1> genii-around, "Links is a text mode WWW browser, similar to Lynx." ... hm... don't think so
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: if you only use the spreadsheet part of openoffice, you can save a lot of space by installing gnumeric
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> !info links
[20:11] <ActionParsnip> rumpe1: i'd say it was
[20:11] <magicianlord> ActionParsnip: what about the future
[20:11] <magicianlord> in the future, there may be a need
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> magicianlord: the OS is flexible, so you can add abiword if you need word processing, or you can reinstall openoffice if you like
[20:12] <magicianlord> really. abiword is an odd name
[20:12] <genii-around> rumpe1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/all/lynx/filelist does not show files like /usr/bin/lynx because it actually just installs links instead
[20:12] <Bill|iPad> Open office is no longer the official ubuntu office app
