[15:10] <UbuntuN00B> nibbler nice :)
[15:10] <gabriel_> Hi everyone
[15:10] <frostburn> Brixius, pretty sure it's stored in /etc/passwd
[15:10] <Paulo39> llutz: my intention is to follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems  but i didn't see any "Install a command-line system" option
[15:10] <LjL> jenda: runs "sudo sensors-detect" first
[15:10] <BluesKaj> hiya folks
[15:10] <magicvibe> erUSUL; at the moment, it seems to be recognized properly, but it only happened after rebooting twice -- but then i lost the borders to all windows, and its as if all the windows are locked to the screen except when i hold alt+left-click to drag them
[15:11] <erUSUL> magicvibe: maybe you had compiz enabled; now the driver does not work and hence compiz can not work either
[15:11] <magicvibe> im not sure what compiz is erUSUL
[15:11] <Tidy> hello, If i back up /home/noel/ to a external hdd.... is it all i need to restore my system to what it is now? should i ever have the need?
[15:11] <Paulo39> LjL: i want to install command-line system, but i didn't see that option, and i checked all option in F4,5,6, etc
[15:11] <xsssx> is it possible to use ubuntu packages with knoppix?
[15:11] <hwilde> !server | Paulo39
[15:11] <magicvibe> erUSUL;  even my terminal windows show no text :/
[15:11] <drizzt_> why do we need launchpad if noone read the bugs there?
[15:11] <xsssx> for gnu octave for example
[15:12] <erUSUL> magicvibe: it would be usefull to see the output of « grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log » and ~/.xsession-errors
[15:12] <LjL> xsssx: probably not, but you should ask in the Knoppix channel anyway
[15:12] <frostburn> drizzt_, they do, what's the bug
[15:12] <Brixius> nice, this is what it say's on the ubuntu wiki page about vulnerabilities: There are many different types of vulnerabilities, some of which are denial of service, gaining user or root privileges, data loss, and information disclosure. Seems like the login screen falls under "Information Disclosure"
[15:12] <gabriel_> I have a problem installling amsn 0.98.1-1. when I launch it after install it appears: Theres a problem loading a module of aMSN, Tkcixmage couldn't load the file tkcximage.so, wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
[15:13] <Paulo39> hwilde: what's the relevance of server version in my situation?
[15:14] <magicvibe> erUSUL; well that would be nice, i agree lol but when i open a terminal it shhows nothing but a blank white box
[15:14] <hwilde> Paulo39, server version is command line only (no gui)  so you have to download the server version cd to install that version
[15:15] <erUSUL> magicvibe: try « alt + f2 » run « metacity --replace »
[15:15] <blendmaster1024> does server 9.10 use grub2?
[15:15] <Paulo39> hwilde: ok, i see. but is a bit strange there is no way to have command-line system without choose the server version
[15:15] <genii> blendmaster1024: Yes
[15:15] <blendmaster1024> boring.
[15:15] <hwilde> Paulo39, there is, just install the desktop verison, then remove the desktop.
[15:16] <LjL> Paulo39: it's possible with the minimal CD. i thought it was with the alternate CD too, but that might have changed.
[15:16] <maverick__> why dosent thunar show a progress bar when im moving/copying stuff to removable drives???
[15:16] <magicvibe> erUSUL; wow that was ...simple lmao, it seems to have restored everything immediately, minus the advanced gui
[15:16] <hwilde> maverick__, progress bar costs extra.
[15:16] <jriehle87> if anyone knows anything about limewire
[15:16] <erUSUL> magicvibe: :) now you can investigate the issue
[15:16] <jriehle87> err frostwire
[15:16] <magicvibe> 	(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[15:16] <magicvibe> (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[15:16] <elperro> limewire works
[15:16] <erUSUL> magicvibe: it would be usefull to see the output of « grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log » and ~/.xsession-errors
[15:16] <genii> maverick__: Probably since most of the write isn't sent to the removable media until the buffer is flushed/sync is called
[15:17] <magicvibe> erUSUL; (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. \(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[15:17] <areay> switching between different tty's crashes karmic 64bit... it's happened on 3 machines now and they were recently updated
[15:17] <erUSUL> magicvibe: anything else?
[15:17] <gabriel_> Please, some help,  I have a problem installling amsn 0.98.1-1. when I launch it after install it appears: Theres a problem loading a module of aMSN, Tkcixmage couldn't load the file tkcximage.so, wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
[15:18] <maverick__> genii: some way to display it anyway?...it gets quite frustrating when files dont get copied correctly..
[15:18] <nibbler> areay, might be kms
[15:18] <magicvibe> erUSUL; grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log gives me that output,
[15:18] <maverick__> hwilde: ??
[15:18] <simpatiko80^> !list
[15:18] <hwilde> maverick__,   watch -n1 "df -ha | grep yourexternaldrive"
[15:18] <erUSUL> magicvibe: better post both files /var/log/Xorg.0.log and  ~/.xsession-errors
[15:18] <areay> nibbler, what's kms?
[15:18] <erUSUL> !paste | magicvibe
[15:18] <Dravekx> how do I assign someone to a group?
[15:19] <hwilde> Dravekx, system -> admin  -> users -> groups
[15:19] <maverick__> hwilde: thanks a lot
[15:19] <llutz> Dravekx: sudo adduser user group
[15:19] <Dravekx> hwilde, via ssh
[15:19] <hwilde> Dravekx, /etc/groups
[15:19] <Dravekx> thx llutz
[15:19] <magicvibe> !pastebinit
[15:19] <areay> it's not just gdm that crashes either... like the whole computer freezes... can't even ping it
[15:19] <hwilde> maverick__, it's a hack but if you do the math you can get some idea of the progress...
[15:19] <nibbler> areay, kernel mode setting, some way of basically better switching of screen modes
[15:19] <areay> ah
[15:19] <areay> nibbler, is there a way to turn it off
[15:19] <Paulo39> LjL, hwilde: ok, thanks. And another question, server version must have a lot of packages that normal version does't have, no? or it's completely clean?
[15:19] <maverick__> hwilde: yes..checking it out right now..:D
[15:20] <magicvibe> hmm
[15:20] <nibbler> areay, dont know
[15:20] <magicvibe> erUSUL; apt-get install pastebinit ?
[15:20] <hwilde> Paulo39, it's a different kernel, but they share a lot of packages
[15:20] <LjL> Paulo39: i think the main difference is that it has a different kernel, but i don't know the details
[15:20] <erUSUL> magicvibe: yes; you can use pastebinit
[15:20] <magicvibe> okay, once install then, > grep EE ... | pastebinit ?
[15:20] <areay> nibbler, it's annoying because it happens sporadically, one minute switching between tty's will be fine, the next the numlock key won't even work
[15:21] <jriehle87> does anyone know why my frostwire doesnt play mp3s?
[15:21] <erUSUL> magicvibe: no post the whole files. « pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log » « pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors »
[15:22] <hwilde> erUSUL, magicvibe    pastebinit -i  <filename>
[15:22] <nibbler> jriehle87, how could we know... there is not enough info
[15:22] <genii> maverick__: Apologies, work lag. Try using "sync" as mount option
[15:22] <areay> has anybody else experienced trouble switching between tty screens (ctrl+alt+f[1-7]) in karmic 64 bit?
[15:22] <maverick__> genii: kk..let me try
[15:22] <jriehle87> nibbler. it isnt playing mps when i double click, just no sound is coming out. and it will go through my playlist doing nothing
[15:23] <jriehle87> mp3s
[15:23] <erUSUL> areay: probably it is coused by the graphic driver. what is the graphic chipset on those machines  ?
[15:23] <magicvibe> hwilde; what does this -i do?
[15:23] <magicvibe> erUSUL; http://pastebin.com/f395ec60b
[15:23] <hwilde> magicvibe, man pastebinit    -i is for a file
[15:23] <nibbler> jriehle87, maybe its outputting to the wrong device, check some properties, settings or so?
[15:24] <boolean> LjL: on a side note, one can use aptitude from the command line as a replacement to the update-notifier
[15:24] <jriehle87> ive done all that and googled.
[15:24] <hwilde> are your speakers plugged in
[15:24] <areay> erUSUL, you know i think it might be ATI
[15:24]  * areay kicks himself
[15:24] <jriehle87> ofcourse, i hear sound everywhere else besides frostwire
[15:24] <hwilde> resintall frostwire.
[15:24] <jriehle87> ok
[15:24] <hwilde> close alll other programs to release the soundcard
[15:24] <erUSUL> areay: and what driver are yu using. i spect the free driver to be better in a server
[15:25] <nibbler> jriehle87, i mean properties of frostwire, not of your system
[15:25] <jriehle87> ok
[15:25] <jriehle87> how do i know if its installed or not?
[15:25] <jriehle87> im sorry im fairly new
[15:25] <nibbler> areay, nomodeset as boot parameter disables it.
[15:25] <areay> erUSUL, they're desktop clients.... is there a command i can use to see which driver i'm using or do i gotta go next door
[15:25] <jriehle87> no its not, i removed it.
[15:26] <erUSUL> areay: grep -i driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:26] <areay> nibbler, thanks man
[15:26] <magicvibe> erUSUL; ~./xsession-errors = http://pastebin.com/f264103e3
[15:26] <lordmortis> how do i make upstart scripts?
[15:27] <areay> erUSUL, i was wrong. they use intel (onboard i believe) graphics
[15:27] <lordmortis> i've tried putting stuff in /etc/init.d and /etc/event.d and i still can't find the job?
[15:27] <areay> erUSUL, i915? is that right
[15:27] <erUSUL> magicvibe: nothing wrong per se in the log ... except maybe No modes were requested; the default mode "nvidia-auto-select" <<<<< maybe that explains the low resolution/ bit depht
[15:28] <erUSUL> areay: yes that's an intel driver/card
[15:28] <lordmortis> http://pastebin.com/d68b50415 <- pastebin of my example script
[15:28] <Pelo> LordBurrito, stuff in init.d gets triggered by the rc levels , it's not just a matter of putting someting in init.d
[15:28] <dfgas> how do i get ubuntu to stop giving password screen come waking up from sleep?
[15:28] <erUSUL> areay: well intel is having some problems as of lately...
[15:28] <erUSUL> !intel | areay
[15:28] <Pelo> dfgas, look in the power management settings there is a box to uncheck
[15:28] <dfgas> thanks
[15:29] <areay> erUSUL, since 9.04? we never had problems with jaunty... but it is worrying that it's been going on so long and i don't know about it...
[15:29] <h1amzaatova1> can you make application that will work with http://omegle.com/????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[15:29] <nibbler> h1amzaatova1, omg no
[15:30] <Pelo> dfgas, there use to be anyway ,  maybe in the screensaver windows,  that lock the screen thingy
[15:30] <ph_> hey guys
[15:30] <ph_> any idea about why this is happening
[15:30] <ph_> dpkg: considering removing cairo-dock-data in favour of cairo-dock ...
[15:30] <ph_> dpkg: no, cannot proceed with removal of cairo-dock-data (--auto-deconfigure will help):
[15:30] <ph_>  cairo-dock depends on cairo-dock-data (>= <IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu1)
[15:30] <ph_>   cairo-dock-data is to be removed.
[15:30] <ph_> dpkg: regarding cairo-dock_v2.0.8_i686.deb containing cairo-dock:
[15:30] <FloodBot2> ph_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:30] <erUSUL> magicvibe: i will try to use nvidia-settings to configure the card « gksudo nvidia-settings »
[15:30] <ph_> this problem sucks :(
[15:31] <erUSUL> magicvibe: save the new Xorg.conf (there is a button to do it)
[15:31] <Pelo> ph_,  try and use synaptic to do your removal,  remove all the cairo dock packages
[15:31] <magicvibe> thanks, erUSUL
[15:31] <Pelo> in one go
[15:31] <dfgas> Pelo, yah i was just going to say i don't see it
[15:31] <ph_> Pelo, ok :)
[15:31] <jriehle87> how to remove frostwire completely
[15:31] <erUSUL> areay: dunno you maybe can try some of the xorg related ppa with newer drivers/kernels
[15:32] <erUSUL> !ppa | areay
[15:32] <Pelo> dfgas, sorry not someting i've played with in a while,  there use to be a password thingy there , but stuff gets moved around for ease of use ,-)
[15:32] <magicvibe> erUSUL; Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!
[15:32] <erUSUL> magicvibe: do → sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak

[15:32] <magicvibe> ok
[15:32] <Pelo> magicvibe, trying to setup the nvidia card ? it happens,   I do the view changes thing and then I copy that over
[15:33] <jriehle87> how do i remove frostwire completely from my system
[15:33] <hwilde> sudo apt-get remove --purge frostwire
[15:33] <Pelo> jriehle87, what hwilde said
[15:33] <jriehle87> thanks
[15:34] <jriehle87> anyone here ever had a problem with frostwire
[15:34] <zagabar> Yo. I made an image of a hdd with dd. Now I am wondering how I use dd to apply that image on a second hdd. Anyone knows how to do it_
[15:34] <Pelo> jriehle87, yes that's why I switched to  gtk-gnutella ,  bit of a crazy interface but no java and steadier
[15:35] <jriehle87> hmm thanks, im having trouble playing music  through frostwire
[15:35] <jriehle87> i cant understand why
[15:35] <magicvibe> erUSUL; when i click Save to X Configuration File, it shows me an input field -- should i just use /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[15:35] <erUSUL> magicvibe: yes
[15:36] <Pelo> jriehle87, I never used the built in player,  I just disabled it and used the "helper aps" to do my previewing,    I used standalone to play the finished dls
[15:36] <jriehle87> ic
[15:36] <jriehle87> ok
[15:36] <jriehle87> should i use xine for standalone player?
[15:36] <Pelo> jriehle87, frostwire, nice as it is , also has that annoying  java 100%cpu bug in it when you leave it running for a long time
[15:37] <strywgr> magicvibe, using nvidia?
[15:37] <Pelo> jrib, that's the one I use in the helper aps
[15:37] <magicvibe> strycore; yea
[15:37] <Pelo> jriehle87, that,s the one i use as an helper app
[15:37] <magicvibe> strycore; gf fx 5200 128mb
[15:37] <jriehle87> ok appreciate it
[15:37] <strywgr> magicvibe, try -> sudo nvidia-xconfig and than -> sudo nvidia-settings
[15:38] <Pelo> jriehle87, give gtk-gnutella a try , don'T let the interface scare you off
[15:38] <magicvibe> styrwgr; i see, autobackup command thanks
[15:38] <jriehle87> im a normal windows user ubuntu scares me :)
[15:39] <strywgr> magicvibe, are you able to save the X config now? or still getting the 'parsed' error?
[15:39] <Pelo> jriehle87, you mean you are not using ubuntu now ? what the heck are you doign in this channel ?
[15:39] <jriehle87> i just have CHRONIC problems
[15:39] <magicvibe> jriehle87; things that are not yet known to us, are scarry yet thrilling ;)
[15:39] <jriehle87> i am
[15:39] <magicvibe> strywgr; i got it now, thanks :)
[15:39] <strywgr> wc
[15:39] <Pelo> jriehle87, you had to learn windows, learning ubuntu is easier
[15:40] <magicvibe> erUSUL; thanks for you help, much appreciated !!:)
[15:40] <obiwan_> hi, please 1 question, whaat file holds the startup apps config for system->preferences->startup programs use?
[15:40] <jriehle87> but everytime i do anything i constantly have to figure out another problem lol
[15:40] <jriehle87> too me it doesnt seem worth it
[15:40] <jriehle87> lol
[15:40] <LjL> obiwan_: probably none, i.e. it'll be in gconf...
[15:40] <Pelo> obiwan_, .desktop in  ~/.gnome/autostart I beleive
[15:40] <magicvibe> jriehle87; welcome to the world of open source
[15:41] <hwilde> jriehle87, or you could just use totem like everybody else and stop complaining...
[15:41] <jriehle87> for instance. i just upgraded wow to 3.2 now i want to do another update.. access denied
[15:41] <jriehle87> lol
[15:41] <jriehle87> i cant win
[15:41] <obiwan_> LjL: & Pelo thanks, i already tried .gnome2/session and .config/autostart but neither did work
[15:42] <Pelo> jriehle87, that's because you are tring to use  windows application in a linux env. that's trickyer, you can'T blame ubuntu if you start out with the hard stuff
[15:42] <maverick__> when i try to move/copy data to my removable drive, i get an error that it is in read only mode..chmod a+w dosent seem to work (chmod: changing permissions of `/media/KFAT4': Read-only file system)..any help?
[15:42] <jriehle87> ic
[15:42] <obiwan_> what files does gconf store its startup items LjL ?
[15:42] <cobol000> what is a good minimal x window manager which is capable of transparency and borderless tiling but with a taskbar?
[15:42] <Pelo> obiwan_, yep , config/autostart , that's the one,  just put a launcher for the app you want to start in there
[15:42] <obiwan_> ny change you know it?
[15:42] <LjL> obiwan_: i haven't the slighest idea, but anyway you shouldnt' edit gconf's file directly, but use gconf-editor
[15:43] <obiwan_> yeah Pelo  problem is i don't want to add, but remove.
[15:43] <obiwan_> ok LjL hehe
[15:43] <obiwan_> thanks
[15:43] <obiwan_> both
[15:43] <Pelo> obiwan_, go to the session stuff in the pref menu , and I think it is on the second tab,  uncheck the save session , before you make your mods
[15:44] <jriehle87> do u think it would be smarter to use VB to install windows xp and run games from there
[15:44] <nibbler> maverick__, i guess the fs is damaged, and thus mounted ro. check dmesg, and mount -oremount,rw
[15:44] <jriehle87> instead eof wine
[15:44] <EsatYuce> can i change my Ubuntu desktop with Netbook Remix?
[15:44] <Pelo> jriehle87, probabaly
[15:44] <pranav> How are colors choose for names in this IRC ?
[15:44] <maverick__> nibbler: it works fine with windows..let me try
[15:44] <Pelo> EsatYuce, yiou mean the theme ? or the whole os ?
[15:44] <EsatYuce> to theme??
[15:45] <nibbler> maverick__, ntfs partition? recent ubuntu? what fs option is used to mount it?
[15:45] <maverick__> nibbler: its my mobile..it gets automounted
[15:45] <Pelo> EsatYuce, you can dl the theme from www.gnome-looks.org probably, just install it like anyother,   you might ahve to do some more work to get the panels to hold the same applications
[15:45] <nibbler> maverick__, ah, vfat then, i assume....
[15:46] <maverick__> nibbler: yea..this is happening only in xfce..didnt use to happen in gnome...dunno why
[15:46] <EsatYuce> pelo thanks
[15:46] <Brixius> ok, I got this command from "mdeslaur" that disables the username list on the login screen: "sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 --set --type boolean /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true"
[15:47] <maverick__> nibbler: sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb1...mount: /media/sdb1 not mounted already, or bad option
[15:47] <hwilde> Brixius, sweet I hate that list.
[15:47] <nibbler> maverick__, point it to the mountpoint, not the the device
[15:47] <Pelo> Brixius, you want to log in without a password ? just goto menu > system > admin > login window
[15:47] <nibbler> Brixius, ok, thanks, i'll write that down ;-)
[15:47] <maverick__> nibbler: ok
[15:47] <Pelo> Brixius, nvm
[15:47] <Oli``> I've just created a new profile but there's one problem with Firefox. All the fonts (including the interface, menus, etc) are slightly blurred as if they're not being antialiased properly... Any idea's on what's happening? I've tried moving .mozilla and that didn't help.
[15:48] <Brixius> Pelo: no, I don't want usernames leaked out of my system.
[15:48] <Brixius> at a login window
[15:48] <LjL> pranav: that depends on your client
[15:48] <Pelo> Oli``,  laptop or lcd monitor,  check in the apperance settings, tehre is a font tab with an option for lcd monitors
[15:48] <boii> Hi.
[15:48] <maverick__> nibbler: still the same
[15:48] <cvbrg> can someone explain this
[15:48] <nibbler> maverick__, check dmesg?
[15:48] <cvbrg> Connecting to hproxy.iitm.ac.in|<IP_ADDRESS>|:3128... connected.
[15:48] <cvbrg>  --request end---
[15:48] <cvbrg>  Proxy request sent, awaiting response...

[15:48] <cvbrg>  Server: squid/2.6.STABLE22
[15:48] <Oli``> Pelo: yeah that's checked. Every other app but Firefox looks great.
[15:49] <maverick__> nibbler: how can i do that?
[15:49] <boii> Why my ubuntu software center error?
[15:49] <boii> That not working after I click on it.
[15:49] <nibbler> maverick__, execute dmesg, then look for lines regarding mounts, fs, blockdevices
[15:49] <Pelo> Oli``, might be a firefox specific setting ask in #firefox
[15:49] <BlouBlou> !paste > cvbrg
[15:49] <pranav> LjL ok, I thought the colors meant something,
[15:49] <nibbler> maverick__, lowest lines are most recent
[15:49] <EsatYuce> can i pass two different desktop environment from one to other one?
[15:49] <LjL> pranav: they're just to help visually telling different nicknames apart.
[15:50] <Pelo> EsatYuce, not that I know off but it might be doable with two users and two different sesssions
[15:50] <maverick__> nibbler: http://paste.ubuntu.com/357109/
[15:50] <Pelo> EsatYuce, and the fast user switch thingy
[15:50] <nibbler> maverick__, at least you know when it happened. but the error message is not very verbose :(
[15:51] <pranav> LjL more total online time, the darker the color, anyway thanks
[15:51] <EsatYuce> pelo, i m reading what you typed, thanks
[15:51] <Mrokii> hello. Would it make any problems if I would change my login-username temporarily in Ubuntu?
[15:51] <disappearedng> Hey is there a usenet client on ubuntu
[15:51] <nibbler> maverick__, copy all files over, and mkfs.vfat the device again... maybeit helps. very unlikely that this is connected to eigher xfce or gnome
[15:51] <LjL> pranav: that's using what client?
[15:51] <maverick__> nibbler: ok..ill try that
[15:51] <nibbler> Mrokii, not at all, usually
[15:51] <hwilde> disappearedng, did you search in synaptic
[15:52] <pranav> LjL just thought an idea, I am using pidgin
[15:52] <disappearedng> no I am looking for a good recommendation
[15:52] <LjL> disappearedng: snownews, thunderbird, pan, nn, tin, knode, cone, slrn  —  KDE: knews
[15:52] <hwilde> disappearedng, I recommend searching in synaptic.

[15:55] <crushy> hi all is there a way to kill process connected from an specified ip?
[15:56] <rek> hi i wanto a lot of text based applications
[15:56] <Oli``> Pelo: For future reference (if you see somebody with blurry firefox fonts), it was this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.5/+bug/67226
[15:56] <crushy> hi all is there a way to kill process connected from an specified ip?
[15:56] <LjL> !info packagesearch | rek you could use this to specify the "interface::commandline" tag
[15:56] <Pelo> Oli``, all fixed now  ?
[15:56] <Oli``> Yup
[15:56] <LjL> crushy: processes aren't connected from IPs

[15:57] <saganbyte> Hello all
[15:57] <Pici> crushy: use sudo for that netstat command and it should tell you which process is handling that connection
[15:57] <crushy> this is example, the process is used by the following ip, so my question is there a way to kill process which is connected to that particular ip
[15:58] <hwilde> crushy, pm
[15:58] <saganbyte> I m trying to use sftp and it seems i need putty-tools to proceed.... ubfortunately i cant find it using the synaptic package manager.. how should i install putty-tools?
[15:58] <hwilde> crushy, it should tell you what process is their sshd.  kill their sshd
[15:58] <Pelo> rek,  look in the package manager,  you'll find someting   menu > syustem> admin > synaptic
[15:59] <Pici> saganbyte: the sftp command is in the openssh-client package
[15:59] <rickogden> saganbyte: what about through nautilus or filezilla?
[15:59] <fission6> are there any tools out there i can use to generate a .wav file? like a random audio file of a given size
[15:59] <tobiasz> does anyone here has Radeon 4850/4870? I would like to know if there are any issues with these cards, or is everything perfect
[15:59] <rek> ok Pelo and ljL

[16:00] <saganbyte> Pici, ok, but how would i use it
[16:00] <saganbyte> rickogden, i can use nautilus for sftp?
[16:00] <rickogden> yes
[16:00] <coolcat> rek, What do you mean?
[16:00] <fission6> LjL: i want aware audacity could generate a wav file of a given size?
[16:01] <rickogden> saganbyte: just type into the address bar<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[16:01] <Bleepy09> how do i change kubuntu to normal ubuntu?
[16:01] <LjL> fission6: you can generate silence or white noise, and more, from the Generate menu, of any given size.

[16:01] <fission6> coool, can i do that from command line too?
[16:01] <Bleepy09> ok thanks will i need to reconnect to the internet?
[16:01] <obiwan_> ok , already checked gconf-editor and couldn't find a list of launched apps upon startup, nybody knwos the key which holds that list?
[16:02] <Bleepy09> Sorry i am such a noob :(
[16:02] <LjL> fission6: not with audacity
[16:02] <fission6> well thats silly
[16:02] <rek> coolcat: what do i mean?
[16:02] <LjL> fission6: why? audacity is a GUI program.
[16:02] <walmik> I have just installed Karmic Koala and when I hit the enter key in Evolution->Tasks.. the application closes!
[16:02] <Pelo> obiwan_, it's not windows,  autostart aps are nor listed in gconf editor, I told you you need to discable the save session in the  gui in  system > pref
[16:02] <fission6> because i want to generate audio files in a unit test for python
[16:02] <rek> hi there's a problem if i try t sleep in the afternoon i feel tired help....
[16:03] <LjL> fission6: well, you didn't *say* that.
[16:03] <erUSUL> fission6: take a look at sox
[16:03] <fission6> haha i know
[16:03] <Pelo> obiwan_, which app do you want to stop starting on boot ?
[16:03] <fission6> ok sox is something we ar ealready use but wasnt away it could generate valid wavs / audio files
[16:03] <UbuntuN00B> nibbler so I cleaned out the entire tower like everything even the 2 other fan in the front and back and it is working amazing, I played an entire youtube video without it freezing and I'll be testing a 720p .mkv file next.
[16:04] <Andy> hi
[16:04] <coolcat> rek, "hi i wanto a lot of text based applications"
[16:05] <obiwan_> Pelo: no one in particular, just to know how to edit those apps
[16:05] <rek> coolcat: APPLICATIONS running with no X ... i'll try with packagesearch
[16:05] <nibbler> UbuntuN00B, nice ;-) it should also be more quiet now, as the fan is not at maxspeed all the time
[16:05] <obiwan_> i mean, to edit that startup list without using the system-preferesnces-startup-apps
[16:05] <obiwan_> pelo
[16:05] <UbuntuN00B> nibbler very much so and well as the HDD being iside now and the case closed up.
[16:06] <MK13> is there a way to have the ubuntu server i have setup to scan the LAN for computers then dump the list in a log so I can see who is connecting to my WLAN?
[16:06] <maverick__> obiwan: sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
[16:06] <coolcat> rek, But applications for what?
[16:06] <Pelo> obiwan_, in the gui in prefs,  just uncheck the save session thingy and you can then remove all the apps you want,  the save session reboots the apps you had opened before you rebooted the computer,  taht'S what's messing you up

[16:06] <Pelo> later folks
[16:06] <UbuntuN00B> nibbler the front fan was entirely full of dust I mean I pulled it off like it was a filter or something it was ewwwww
[16:07] <Theuntje> Need some help here
[16:07] <MK13> erUSUL, that was what i was thinking... just wondering if there were any alternatives
[16:07] <fission6> what is trim doing there
[16:07] <LjL> fission6: trimming an empty file
[16:07] <obiwan_> pelo, but i want to know how to know which file holds that info, i don't actually want to change anything
[16:07] <coolcat> rek, have you got www-browser, irssi may be useful to.
[16:07] <obiwan_> maverick__: buth thanks hehe
[16:07] <LjL> fission6: "-n" specifies that there is no actual input file
[16:07] <maverick__> obiwan_: then i have no idea :)
[16:07] <erUSUL> fission6: sox has a synth subcommand
[16:08] <obiwan_> ^_^
[16:08] <rek> www ? i installed irssi mutt coolcat links hddtemp
[16:08] <e01> is have ubuntu alternative for synaptic for console

[16:08] <Guest648845> hey , wtf is lubuntu
[16:08] <e01> somethink like slackware`s pkgtool?
[16:08] <Theuntje> I've got the Ubuntu LIVE-CD running on my Macbook Pro now because the HD was corrupted and MAC OS restore didn't help.. Now I'm trying to move the files to another pc by LAN.. Only I can't because I don't have the right permissions

[16:08] <LjL> !apt-get | e01
[16:08] <macman_> lol lubuntu
[16:08] <fission6> synth? what does that do, let me review
[16:08] <rek> is fluxbuntu still alive?
[16:08] <macman_> Guest648845: i see that also on the wiki
[16:08] <e01> maverick__, but how can i view packages that are installed
[16:08] <Bleepy09> i was just asking if i remove all kde packages from my dekstop will i still have my old shit on here? files etc and will i need to reconnect to the internet?
[16:08] <erUSUL> fission6: synthetise a audio file ?
[16:09] <coolcat> rek, www-browser is a console web browser.
[16:09] <LjL> e01: dpkg --get-selections
[16:09] <maverick__> e01: man apt-get..it must be in there..
[16:09] <rek> ah ok
[16:09] <erUSUL> fission6: from a random wiki « sox -n phaser.wav synth .5 sine 10000-5 »
[16:09] <t0rc> is there a package to make ubuntu look like mac?

[16:09] <shiman> t0rc, try MAC4LIN
[16:09] <LjL> !info aptitude | e01
[16:10] <llutz> coolcat: www-browser it just an alternative name for an cli-based browser like links/elinks/w3m

[16:10] <perlsyntax> does anyone know hwo to get windows driver to work on ubuntu?
[16:10] <nibbler> perlsyntax, unless its wifi driver: no way
[16:10] <perlsyntax> i got a virgin mobile usb modem.
[16:11] <erUSUL> perlsyntax: only possible with network drivers via ndiswraper
[16:11] <perlsyntax> i see
[16:11] <fission6> erUSUL: th ats crazy, haha thakns
[16:11] <maverick__> dosfsck is stuck at Reclaiming unconnected clusters for 10 mins for a 2 gb drive..does it usually take that long?
[16:11] <blakkheim> t0rc: why would you do that
[16:11] <fission6> you should listen to the audio it puts out
[16:11] <perlsyntax> odd
[16:11] <fission6> haha
[16:11] <nibbler> maverick__, is it making progress in the clusternumbers or something?
[16:11] <perlsyntax> nibber,How do i gt a virgin modile usb modem to work on linux?
[16:11] <nibbler> maverick__, dmesg again
[16:12] <maverick__> nibbler: ok wait
[16:12] <erUSUL> fission6: i listened to this « sox -n phaser2.wav synth 0.5 sine 1600-100 synth 0.6 sine fmod 200-1400 »
[16:12] <nibbler> perlsyntax, normally usb modems are just a serial device and so work like any modem
[16:12] <fission6> what blog did you pulls these from?
[16:12] <perlsyntax> i can connect to it but it will not surf web sites.
[16:12] <perlsyntax> odd very odd.
[16:12] <erUSUL> fission6: they only have two examples http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Sox

[16:13] <perlsyntax> nibbler, any ideas?
[16:13] <blakkheim> Theuntje: become root and try again

[16:13] <saganbyte> I m trying to get putty-tools but not able to
[16:13] <nibbler> Theuntje, sudo -s
[16:13] <fission6> google-fu?
[16:13] <saganbyte> The synaptic package manager wont list it on searching
[16:13] <erUSUL> !root | Theuntje
[16:13] <maverick__> nibbler: turns out it was already in verbose
[16:14] <perlsyntax> not sure
[16:14] <saganbyte> openssh client is already installed
[16:14] <llutz> saganbyte: use openssh-client, provides sftp
[16:14] <Theuntje> thanks! that'll do the trick =)
[16:14] <blakkheim> erUSUL: this is from a livecd to recover files he doesn't have permissions of, is that really needed?
[16:14] <saganbyte> llutz, how do i use it?
[16:14] <llutz> saganbyte: sftp user@host
[16:14] <middleschool> how do I create a disk image of my Ubuntu machine so I can copy it to 20 other machines in a school computer lab?

[16:15] <saganbyte> llutz, i was trying to user fireftp on firefox actually
[16:15] <TNorbut> Having trouble with ACPI on a VMWare image.  Can anyone help?
[16:15] <rek> yep llutz through folders
[16:16] <TNorbut> Getting the following message on boot

[16:16] <llutz> saganbyte: use nautilus, addressline: sftp://user@host    for gui if you prefer
[16:16] <llutz> rek navigate per sftp? use ftp-commands
[16:16] <saganbyte> llutz, oh, and where would i put the port number
[16:16] <llutz> saganbyte: use nautilus, addressline: sftp://user@host:123    for gui if you prefer
[16:16] <llutz> saganbyte: add it to host, host:port
[16:16] <saganbyte> llutz, okay, thank you :)
[16:16] <rek> llutz: which commands? cd ?
[16:17] <erUSUL> middleschool: look at clonezilla
[16:17] <JuJuBee> What program can I use to extract the audio tracks from a music video dvd
[16:17] <packetcase> How do I fix/reinstall the GRUB?
[16:17] <Bleepy09> if i remove all kde packages will i still have the same stuff on kubuntu now?
[16:17] <Bleepy09> And will i have to reconnect to internet
[16:17] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: there are many
[16:17] <llutz> rek: man ftp
[16:17] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: reccomend one?
[16:17] <drizzt_> is there a way to transparently mount some network filesystem, but not cifs or nfs?
[16:18] <rek> :-) too general
[16:18] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: i usually use handbrake to rip the video and then ffmpeg or mplayer to get the audio from that
[16:18] <llutz> drizzt_: sshfs
[16:18] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: can ffmpeg or mplayer get audio directly from dvd?
[16:18] <raik> how to safely remove flash drives from ubuntu 9.04?
[16:19] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: never tried so i can't say
[16:19] <Slart> raik: just unmount it
[16:19] <drizzt_> llutz, do I need ssh server for it?
[16:19] <ikonia> raik: right click on the and use eject or unmount
[16:19] <llutz> drizzt_: not clientside
[16:19] <Theuntje> Okay.. everything changed to 777
[16:19] <Slart> raik: right click on the folder in nautilus and ... well.. what ikonia said )=
[16:19] <Slart> =)
[16:19] <Theuntje> but still can't move the files
[16:19] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: if you can play the dvd in mplayer it can dump just the audio from it to a file
[16:20] <tobiasz> does anyone here has Radeon 4850/4870? I would like to know if there are any issues with these cards, or is everything perfect
[16:20] <Theuntje> I've got the Ubuntu LIVE-CD running on my Macbook Pro now because the HD was corrupted and MAC OS restore didn't help.. Now I'm trying to move the files to another pc by LAN.. Only I can't because I don't have the right permissions.. In ADDITION.. The files that are locked are password protected from inside MAC OS X!
[16:20] <obiwan_> please, anybody knows why is it common to use 2 gpg keys ? i read that online signatures (email, bug reports, ...) don't need a so strong key as encrypted files do. Why ? the only answer i could think of is because locally you can bruteforce against an encrypted file, but maybe online signatures have a max tries limit
[16:20] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: that's cool, but im not familiar with  mplayer... its command line, isn't it?
[16:20] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: yes
[16:20] <nibbler> Theuntje, so, you cannot *read* the files? why do you want to move them?
[16:21] <Slart> obiwan_: two keys? you mean why there is one public key and one private key?
[16:21] <Theuntje> nibbler, because my harddrive is corrupted and I want to back my files up..
[16:21] <packetcase> How do I fix/reinstall the GRUB? I am using the 9.10 live-CD.

[16:21] <nibbler> Theuntje, over the net.
[16:21] <TNorbut> acpi: i/o resource piix4_smbus [0x1040-0x10471]      conflicts with acpi region smb_
[16:22] <Theuntje> nibbler, I try to copy.. that's what I've tried
[16:22] <Bleepy09> if i remove all kde packages will i still have the same stuff on kubuntu now?
[16:22] <Bleepy09> And will i have to reconnect to internet
[16:22] <Theuntje> nibbler, coppy pasted..
[16:22] <perlsyntax> where do i find all the drivers in ubuntu?
[16:22] <ikonia> Bleepy09: no
[16:22] <blackxored> is there any way in a gnome desktop to activate the window demanding attention from the keyboard?/?
[16:22] <erUSUL> obiwan_: this aseveration "common to use 2 gpg keys" needs backup. most people only have one gpg kaypair
[16:22] <Bleepy09> no /
[16:22] <Bleepy09> :)
[16:22] <ikonia> Bleepy09: if you remove all your kde packages, kde will not run any more
[16:22] <Bleepy09> :(
[16:22] <Bleepy09> ikonia, i know
[16:22] <obiwan_> nope Slart i mean i got one dsa 1024 bit key, and one dsa elgamal 4096 bit key. docu says first is supposed to be used as email , etc signature , and second for file encryption.
[16:22] <FloodBot2> Bleepy09: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:22] <Bleepy09> but will i have my old files?
[16:22] <erUSUL> !puregnome | Bleepy09
[16:22] <ikonia> Bleepy09: what old files?
[16:22] <perlsyntax> Where do i find the drivers in linux
[16:23] <Bleepy09> from this current desktop
[16:23] <ikonia> Bleepy09: your presonal files, sure
[16:23] <Bleepy09> ok
[16:23] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: I see that ffmpeg can get the audio from a .mpg file and dump it as mp3.  Will it create a single mp3 file of all music on dvd?
[16:23] <perlsyntax> anyone
[16:23] <Slart> obiwan_: oh.. didn't know it did that... you've installed the standard gpg package?
[16:23] <Bleepy09> so i wont have to reconnect to internet or antything?
[16:23] <ikonia> perlsyntax: saying anyone is pointless, if they know the answer, they will respond, if they didn't see the answer saying anyone won't tell them the question
[16:23] <ikonia> perlsyntax: the "drivers" are part of the kernel, what exactly are you looking for
[16:23] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: like i said i've never done it that way so i don't know. i use ffmpeg to rip the audio from video files. even if it rips themm to separate files you could join them together.
[16:24] <obiwan_> erUSUL: yeah, that's what i thought when i told seahorse to make an elgamal dsa key, but he was so-so-so smart  and clever than me, that it made two keys for me, and now i'm in doubt if i should revoke the 1024 dsa key, and have a useless revoked key for my whole life on a server which won't let me remove it definitely
[16:24] <blackxored> ikonia, hi, long time
[16:24] <perlsyntax> i try to find the driver to my virgin modile usb modem
[16:24] <ikonia> blackxored: indeed
[16:24] <blackxored> guys, do you know how to activate the window demanding attention in gnome, or in cairo-dock as an alternative?
[16:24] <obiwan_> Slart: yeah hehe
[16:24] <perlsyntax> it  windows driver i think it build in.
[16:24] <ikonia> perlsyntax: well, it will either be in /lib/$kernel-version/modules or you'll need to get it from a third party
[16:24] <blackxored> ikonia, there was all this debian and ubuntu dev processes, but I still remember you :P
[16:25] <perlsyntax> how do i do that
[16:25] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: I would prefer separate files, but either way...  I will give handbrake and ffmpeg a try thanks.
[16:25] <ikonia> perlsyntax: /lib/modules/$kernel-version sorry
[16:25] <perlsyntax> ikonia,trno prob
[16:25] <ikonia> blackxored: pleased you remember me, thank you
[16:25] <obiwan_> erUSUL: so now i dunno what to do, cause the gpg docu says it's common to have two gpg keys, one for signing docs and one for encrypting files hehe
[16:25] <erUSUL> obiwan_: gpg by default generates a key for signing and another for encryption iirc
[16:26] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: do you know if there is a 9.04 64 bit version?  only see 9.10 on site
[16:26] <blackxored> ikonia, BTW, maybe you can answer my question, kde has a default shortcut for this task, but I can't find a similar one in gnome, also I'm using cairo-dock which also notifies of such windowses, so there's a way/?
[16:26] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: it will probably work just fine, or you could compile from the sources
[16:27] <El_Mariachi> I know that's not the place, but where do you folks download movies sound tracks?
[16:27] <blakkheim> lol
[16:27] <obiwan_> yeah erUSUL , but at least in terminal you can change that behaviour. seahorse won't let you do a elgamal 4096 single key. but anyway, it's already done so i can't change it. Question is, should i revoke the 1024 key and keep using the 4096 for everything, or should i do what it says about signing docs with the 1024 one?
[16:27] <LjL> El_Mariachi: indeed this is not the place (for piracy especially)
[16:27] <ikonia> blackxored: I'm not really a big KDE user so I'm not the best person to answer, and I don't use cario dock
[16:27] <fahadmoideen> Hey, I am not able to connect remotely to one of my computers that use windows Xp using the remote desktop veiwer.
[16:27] <erUSUL> obiwan_: yes i know. gui programs choose a default. i gnerate my key in cli to have to RSA 4096 keys ;P
[16:27] <Paulo39> hi, how can i edit a text file from a terminal without any gui?
[16:27] <El_Mariachi> LjL, I'm sure you don't have any musics on your computer ;)
[16:27] <LjL> Paulo39: nano filename
[16:27] <goose> how hard is it getting a Mac to dual boot with Ubuntu?
[16:28] <blakkheim> Paulo39: vi
[16:28] <ikonia> blackxored: let me see if I can figure it out, hang on
[16:28] <erUSUL> Paulo39: there are mani cli editors. use nano for example « nano file.txt »
[16:28] <blackxored> ikonia, neither I'm I, I just stepped into a friend's box, and I like that, I mean you see pidgin flashing in your task bar and you press C-ALT-A, and it fires pidgin on front, I want to know if there's something similar in gnome
[16:28] <Paulo39> LjL: thks
[16:28] <Paulo39> blakkheim: what's vi?
[16:28] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: I think the .deb file is for 9.10, errors trying dpkg -i  need newer libraries than I have....
[16:28] <blakkheim> Paulo39: a commandline text editor that is very good
[16:29] <Paulo39> ok
[16:29] <LjL> and very difficult initially to use.
[16:29] <blakkheim> JuJuBee: oh ok, then i guess you've gotta compile it

[16:29] <howlymowly> hi guys...  short question:   i want to put a link to a java program into my ~/bin folder  but that does not work out as expected...  I guess that's because for some reason the working directory is the bin path rather than the path where I instlled my java program...  is there a way to create links to java programs and avoid these problemsß
[16:29] <howlymowly> ?
[16:29] <JuJuBee> blakkheim: can't update to 9.10... problems with mouse/trackpad  prevent it with 9.10

[16:30] <jriehle87> frostwire problem
[16:30] <ikonia> sdwrage: either install the package that contains it, or you'll need to build it
[16:30] <blackxored> howlymowly, you probably should try java-wrappers
[16:30] <JuJuBee> sdwrage: look in /etc/apache2/mods-available
[16:30] <sdwrage> ikonia, so the zip module id need to build? I dont think it comes available
[16:31] <howlymowly> blackxored: how does that work? can you lead me to a direction to look further into that :)?
[16:31] <JuJuBee> sdwrage: create a link to desired mods in mods-enabled
[16:31] <ikonia> sdwrage: you'll need to build on the target or a compatible system
[16:31] <blackxored> howlymowly, install the java-wrappers package make a little launcher which sets classpath and launches your program, and you're done
[16:31] <obiwan_> erUSUL: yeah, terminal is so lovable, whenever i run anything on gui, it ain't work as good as terminal does (with its graphical limitations, ofc). anyway, please answer my question about keeping the 1024 key for signatures, i'm really confused on what should i do with it
[16:31] <mikealeonetti> if I set up two interfaces with two different routes, will they conflict with each other?
[16:32] <sdwrage> ikonia, where do you normally get apache modules? ex: zip module
[16:32] <ikonia> sdwrage: apache.org or from the provider
[16:32] <sdwrage> k
[16:32] <jriehle87> i have a frostwire problem can anyone help me out
[16:32] <jriehle87> i have the coding
[16:33] <erUSUL> obiwan_: did you uploaded you key or used it? if not just start over remove the key from your compueter and generate a new keypair ...
[16:33] <erUSUL> obiwan_: if you did not uploaded your key to any keyserver that's easy
[16:33] <howlymowly> hmm... blackxored i installed the package, please forgive me my "newbyness"  but how do I make a litttle launcher?
[16:33] <blackxored> howlymowly, I can point you to one of my examples
[16:34] <fission6> erUSUL: is there a way to have sox synthesize 16 bit rather than 32?
[16:34] <obiwan_> erUSUL: sadly i did
[16:34] <howlymowly> yeah that would be great blackxored
[16:34] <erUSUL> fission6: dunno chack its man page
[16:34] <s6> Hello folks. When I installed Ubuntu 9.04, my sound was working. After some updates, it automagically stopped working and now only emits silent noise when sounds should be playing. How can I diagnose and repair this?
[16:35] <resno> question will gparted work to cover a windows install?
[16:35] <obiwan_> erUSUL: now it's all messed, my keys is all around the world , so it ain't viable to seek & clean
[16:35] <perlsyntax> i try to get the driver off the usb drive.How can i do that?
[16:35] <erUSUL> obiwan_: then you will have to either. 1) revoke that keypair and generate a new one if the current keypair bothers you that much 2) just use what you got
[16:35] <loopy555> strange...
[16:35] <blackxored> ikonia, so???

[16:38] <llutz> Hans_Henrik:sudo  dd if=/dev/<your-partition> of=/path/to/image.img bs=4k
[16:38] <obiwan_> erUSUL: yeah, but my name and mail is already associated with that keypair, so i don't want that people searches the gpg servers and find many keys for same user, so i'll keep what i got. But what i mean is, i have 1 master key (the 1024 one) and 1 subkey (the 4096 elgamal)  associated to it. you can revoke keys, so i could revoke the 1024 key and hold the 4096 one as master key. The choice is between using both keys, or revoking the mater
[16:38] <blackxored> how can I activate the window demanding attention in gnome? anyone?
[16:38] <fission6> this is weird, sox -b 32 -n phaser2.wav synth 10 sine 1600-100 sine 200-1400 creates a file much faster than sox -b 16 -n phaser2.wav synth 10 sine 1600-100 sine 200-1400 where the later is using 16 bit samples? can someone explain this

[16:39] <erUSUL> obiwan_: no you can not revoke the master and keep a subkey. you can do the other way around
[16:39] <llutz> Hans_Henrik: but on unix-filesystems, it's better to work file-wise than imaging whole disks/partitions imho
[16:39] <rgr> how to confiure system keyboard as non american?
[16:39] <howlymowly> ahh ok...  blackxored so with this script i just put the right paths into the required field and put the script into the bin folder...

[16:40] <perlsyntax> Does anyone knoow how to get a driver off a usb drive?
[16:40] <rgr> LjL: thaqt doesnt work.
[16:40] <blackxored> howlymowly, if for finding required jars to make your program run, I mean dependencies, you set classpath paths, and you find required jars there, if you're program doesn't need any, you can get rid of that

[17:03] <jriehle87> erUSUL: did u read that post>?
[17:03] <yaaar> howdy
[17:03] <Phong> another word: ubuntu put the Master boot in the 1tb one intead of 160gb hd
[17:03] <ZykoticK9> jayanth, this is just a stab in the dark but have you recently changed your system's hostname?  i have run into problems with doing that and suddenly sudo is broken.  Anyways best of luck man.
[17:04] <Phong> erUSUL: do u understand me?
[17:04] <erUSUL> Phong: i'm going to say it again. THe Ubuntu instaler will install the grub mbr in the disk that is configured to boot first by the bios; not in the disk you install ubuntu.
[17:04] <Phong> oh
[17:05] <Phong> fuk then, maybe when i install the ubunto,,,the bios probably has the 1tb as first boot
[17:05] <Phong> now i see what u meant
[17:05] <jayanth> ya tell
[17:05] <Phong> i should set my 160gb as first boot in the bios, then reinstall the ubuntu ;)
[17:05] <erUSUL> Phong: on most syustem both disks ( the one you install ubuntu in and the one you have configured in bios to boot first are the same. not in your case though. in you case afaics it is the 1 TB hard disk the one configured to boot first in bios that's whjy grub ends up there
[17:05] <Phong> i think that will solve it
[17:06] <Phong> erusul: i got ur point
[17:06] <Phong> i undertand now

[17:17] <ardchoille> erUSUL: ?
[17:18] <di||itante> on boot how do I see the process rather than the Ubuntu graphic?
[17:18] <jriehle87> ikonia:  whats jvm?
[17:19] <ikonia> jriehle87: java virtual machine
[17:19] <erUSUL> ardchoille: sorry; nvm wrong nick
[17:19] <Paulo39> how can i install X server on karmic? i did a minimal install, but i want to install some window manager, like enlightment or fluxbox. In order to do that, i must install X before, right?
[17:19] <ardchoille> ok
[17:19] <erUSUL> McL0VIN: block size of a filesystem ?
[17:19] <erUSUL> Paulo39: if you install a window manager chances are that it will pull the Xserver as dependency
[17:20] <GG19> nibbler,  hey this is UbuntuN00B on my Ubuntu computer, just wanted to let you know its working perfectly now and that I'm very very greatful for your help you made my day much better :)
[17:20] <McL0VIN> erUSUL: yes, i am reading now that i can do /dumpe3fs to check it
[17:20] <Paulo39> erUSUL: ok, so probably i dont need to install X before
[17:20] <Paulo39> ok, thanks
[17:20] <Paulo39> i'll try
[17:20] <erUSUL> McL0VIN: all fs are created with 4K blocksize unless you change defaults
[17:20] <Paulo39> which window manager do you recomend for a weak machine?
[17:20] <muffinpe1dler> I have a server that won't boot the ubuntu iso I just burned.  All my other computers do.  Do I have to make the iso bootable?  I tried a professionally mastered ubuntu (old version though) and my server booted it just fine
[17:20] <Paulo39> i want a really light window manager
[17:21] <DaZ> Paulo39: how weak? :f
[17:21] <Paulo39> p3 500Mhz with 384 of RAM
[17:21] <mezquitale> Paulo39, use xubuntu
[17:21] <ardchoille> Paulo39: fluxbox and openbox are popular
[17:21] <DaZ> y' openbox
[17:21] <blakkheim> mezquitale: xubuntu is still bloated, i wouldn't recommend it for that system
[17:22] <McL0VIN> erUSUL: my srvr got 2 HDD and i want to see if i can use RAID
[17:22] <Paulo39> mezquitale: i tried xubuntu but i didn't like its performancwe
[17:22] <mamado> guys i downloaded this usplash http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Fusion-GX-v00+%5B200911-21%5D?content=115833 but have know idea how to install it
[17:22] <Paulo39> ardchoille: ok, i'll see some info about it
[17:22] <ardchoille> !usplash | mamado
[17:23] <erUSUL> McL0VIN: how knowing the blocksize of an existing fs would help you ?
[17:23] <x_> guys.. im having issues with windows xp .. is it possible to look at the Event log from ubuntu?
[17:23] <GG19> whats creat a USB startup disc using cd or disc image for?
[17:23] <GG19> is it for making a boot disc?
[17:23] <saganbyte> Somehow I m not able to find regular items like apache, php etc in Synaptic Manager... I ve just installed 9.10
[17:23] <saganbyte> What could be wrong
[17:23] <erUSUL> !info php
[17:23] <erUSUL> !info php5
[17:23] <blakkheim> saganbyte: aptitude update; aptitude search $string
[17:23] <goose> how hard is it getting a Mac to dual boot with Ubuntu?
[17:24] <erUSUL> saganbyte: maybe you are not searching correctly ?
[17:24] <blakkheim> goose: not very hard
[17:24] <erUSUL> !lamp | saganbyte
[17:24] <ardchoille> !info apache
[17:24] <saganbyte> blakkheim, Okay, thabks
[17:24] <erUSUL> to install a lamp stack just do « sudo tasksel install lamp »
[17:25] <saganbyte> erUSUL, Okay, thanks
[17:25] <goose> blakkheim: do you know of a good guide for how to? Tried to install last night, GRUB won't automagically partition/dual boot it for me
[17:25] <McL0VIN> erUSUL: that was another question about the RAID
[17:26] <blakkheim> goose: install rEFIt in os x, install ubuntu (but put grub on the partittion you installed ubuntu to)
[17:26]  * _Ovidiu is away: Gone away for now
[17:26] <CAiRO> hi
[17:26] <blakkheim> !away > _Ovidiu
[17:26] <x_> guys.. im having issues with windows xp .. is it possible to look at the Event log from ubuntu?
[17:27] <Honeymoon> hi
[17:27] <luis_> I need help, the plasma desktop is acting strangely
[17:27] <CAiRO> the release nots of the 10.04 alpha2 say that it is possible to install all 3 nvidia drivers in parallel, but what is the difference between them actually?
[17:27] <erUSUL> x_: dunno; it it is a text file and you know its location ...
[17:27] <goose> blakkheim: with GRUB automagically work when installing from CD, or will I need to manually create the partitions and install grub?
[17:27] <x_> hmm
[17:27] <luis_> it doesnt have buttons to close, also the process crash, how i can kill plasma so i reset it?
[17:27] <erUSUL> !lucid | CAiRO
[17:27] <x_> cheers ersul
[17:27] <erUSUL> luis_: more help in #kubuntu perhaps ?
[17:27] <ppm> help: when I boot 9.1, my runlevel is not set
[17:27] <CAiRO> erUSUL: so what has that to do with my question?
[17:27] <erUSUL> !runlevels | ppm
[17:27] <blakkheim> goose: you need to create a partition for ubuntu and do what i just said. grub has to be on the ubuntu partition rather than the MBR
[17:28] <erUSUL> CAiRO: if you want to know something about lucid ask in #ubuntu+1
[17:28] <ppm> ubottu, thanks.  but I have to telinit 2 to get ssh, etc. started
[17:28] <CAiRO> erUSUL: ah, ok, i thought those 3 drivers were availble in other verions too and that you could just not install them in parallel
[17:28] <CAiRO> the release notes sound like that
[17:29] <erUSUL> CAiRO: nouveau is not aviable in karmic afaik ...
[17:29] <ppm> erUSUL, yes?
[17:29] <goose> aaaaaaah, I understand. I need to create the partition *before* install Ubuntu. Correct, blakkheim?
[17:29] <erUSUL> ppm: yes to what?
[17:29] <ppm> you said something about runlevel
[17:29] <aar> Hi, I want to wipe my external drive beofre passing it on to someone else. Is "sudo wipe /dev/sd(foo)" enough?
[17:30] <blakkheim> goose: the installer has a partition editor or you can do it beforehand, it's up to you
[17:30] <blakkheim> aar: no
[17:30] <jriehle87> anyone know terminal command to remove frostwire
[17:30] <jriehle87> sudo apt-get remove?
[17:30] <goose> blakkheim: ok. then when I aptitude install grub, GRUB will automagically detect the two OS's, and do the rest?
[17:30] <blakkheim> jriehle87: sudo aptituge purge frostwire
[17:30] <erUSUL> ppm: that in ubuntu there is no difference between a runlevel 2 3 or 4 and that telinit and the like may not work as spected becouse we now use upstart
[17:30] <aar> blakkheim, any viable alternatives?
[17:30] <GG19> Question~ If I have a 8Gb USB stick that has files on it or if anyone knows what Mojopac is I have it installed on a USb stick can I still us the USB Startup Disc Creator and not loose my files on the USB like partition a spot on the USB but still be able to use it as a normal USB storage.
[17:30] <blakkheim> goose: grub is on the default install, that's not what i meant
[17:30] <blakkheim> aar: DBAN
[17:31] <LjL> aar: unless you have reason to believe they'll attempt advanced data recovery processes on it, it should be enough.
[17:31] <aar> blakkheim, thanks, i'll check it out
[17:31] <jriehle87> sudo: aptituge: command not found
[17:31] <aar> LjL, ok thanks
[17:31] <ver> yeah i can't figure it out.  dpkg is just chilling out while init sits at 100% CPU usage when trying to configure dbus.
[17:31] <blakkheim> goose: grub is only going to be used to boot ubuntu, it will not work with mac os
[17:31] <blakkheim> jriehle87: aptitude not aptittuge
[17:32] <jriehle87> sry
[17:32] <goose> blakkheim: my main concern then is choosing what OS to boot from; like GRUB does with windows/ubuntu
[17:32] <LjL> blakkheim: what does DBAN do that wipe doesn't?
[17:32] <blakkheim> goose: that's what rEFIt is for, install it in os x before installing ubuntu
[17:32] <nibbler> GG19, welcome :)
[17:32] <blakkheim> goose: it will create a graphical startup option to choose what OS you want
[17:32] <GG19> nibbler,  hey welcome to you as well
[17:32] <jriehle87> is there a good website for terminal commands?
[17:32] <LjL> !cli > jriehle87    (jriehle87, see the private message from ubottu)
[17:33] <GG19> nibbler,  do you know the answer to my previous question?
[17:33] <goose> blakkheim: ooooh, okay. so: install rEFIt, make a partition for Ubuntu, install Ubuntu to said partition, epic win!
[17:34] <nibbler> GG19, the creator formats the stick
[17:34] <blakkheim> goose: pretty much, but when you're at the final stage of the installer you need to click the "advanced" button and make sure grub is installed to the ubuntu partition rather than just /dev/sda
[17:34] <GG19> nibbler,  thank you thats all I needed to know, I'd of hated to try and loose everything on it.
[17:34] <goose> ok. thank you blakkheim!
[17:35] <DexterF> hi
[17:35] <GG19> nibbler,  is it possible to use the USB Startuo disc creator to put it on a flash card or is that not practical since you cant boot from a falsh drive unlike a USB stick?
[17:36] <DexterF> how do I make a module load at boot time?
[17:37] <GG19> nibbler,  I suppose its only USB storage devices so maybe even a USB HDD would be more possible.
[17:37] <usser> DexterF, put the module name in /etc/modules
[17:37] <jriehle87> IM LOVING LINUX
[17:37] <erUSUL> DexterF: put its name at the end of /etc/modules
[17:37] <jriehle87> im so happy i made the change
[17:37] <DexterF> thanks
[17:38] <erUSUL> DexterF: echo modulename | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
[17:39] <ZykoticK9> jriehle87, this is a great reference for cli programs http://oreilly.com/linux/command-directory/
[17:39] <DexterF> jriehle87: obviously never owned an ATi card, huh?
[17:40] <jriehle87> DexterF: yea i have
[17:40] <jriehle87> ati radeon x1550
[17:40] <jriehle87> now i have a nvid 9800gt
[17:40] <oorah> do i have to have windows installed before installing Linpus? thats what it seems on their website. before ya get crazy and say OFFTOPIC! there doesn't seem to be any good channel for this question
[17:41] <McL0VIN> i have a question, in GNOME i can access my networked (M$) computer just fine ...how can i do that from CLI
[17:41] <lionel_> 大家好
[17:41] <DexterF> jriehle87: ever tried to install a newer nv driver than shipped with the distro?
[17:41] <daftykins> McL0VIN: you'll need to make a CIFS mount
[17:41] <daftykins> !smb | McL0VIN
[17:41] <usser> McL0VIN, smbclient or smbmount
[17:41] <jriehle87> question: can i do a SUDO APT-GET gtkgnutella
[17:42] <Pici> jriehle87: Case is important, as is spelling: sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella
[17:42] <genii> oorah: Having windows installed already is not a prerequisite to installing linux. But if you intend to have both, putting Windows first means the bootloader installed from Linux sees both
[17:42] <nibbler> GG19, sure
[17:42] <jriehle87> Pici: thanks
[17:43] <DexterF> jriehle87: yes, but won't do a thing. the packagename is gtk-gnutella. (aptitude search gnutella would have told ya)
[17:43] <oorah> genii, go to www.linpus.com, click the download link, then you will see what i mean. there is no iso, just a .exe installer for dual boot
[17:43] <DexterF> oorah: why linpus...?
[17:43] <vhenry93> seen some debate on the usage of term folder vs. directory in Ubuntu. what's the consensus on which is the correct term?
[17:43] <jriehle87> what does sudo stand for?
[17:44] <steffie>  /msg NickServ identify <password><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:44] <jpds> jriehle87: Superuser do.
[17:44] <genii> oorah: This is the Ubuntu support :) But if it's .exe then that means Windows, yes
[17:44] <DexterF> jriehle87: "do as superuser"
[17:44] <unop> jriehle87, substitute user do
[17:44] <oorah> DexterF, i wanna try it out
[17:44] <jriehle87> ok thanks
[17:44] <genii> jriehle87: SuperUserDO
[17:44] <jriehle87> appreciate this channels help alot
[17:44] <unop> sudo does more than just elevate one to the superuser
[17:45] <oorah> genii, on the website there is no iso like i said, only a .exe installer. this is the first time i've ever seen a distro that has to have windows installed first to be installed
[17:45] <unop> vhenry93, directory would be a more appropriate unix term - but either goes
[17:45] <drizzt_> vhenry93, directory is a FS thing, and a folder is your DE thing, they're not equivalent
[17:45] <vhenry93> ok, thanks. writing an article and didn't want to get blasted:)
[17:45] <genii> oorah: Probably some equivelent of our "Wubi" install of Ubuntu
[17:46] <oorah> genii, so if i wanna try it out, would you recommend goin that tunnel route? seems invasive lol
[17:46] <genii> oorah: But since this is not Linpus support, maybe find someone at their site or a channel on IRC where they are more familiar with that distribution to ask
[17:46] <jriehle87> is this the proper command to remove xine, sudo aptitude purge xine?
[17:47] <oorah> genii, they don't seem to have anyone on their irc lol i was the only person there
[17:47] <mezquitale> oorah, this is #ubuntu support
[17:47] <daftykins> jriehle87: "sudo apt-get remove --purge xine" may also work / be more appropriate - not sure if i just made that up though ^_^
[17:47] <DexterF> jriehle87: depends: purge removes the config files, too. aptitude remove only removes the package but keeps the config in case you might need it later
[17:47] <oorah> mezquitale, i know
[17:47] <genii> oorah: Maybe ask in the main ##linux channel here
[17:48] <jriehle87> DexterF: i see
[17:48] <oorah> genii, thats impossble, that channel is always full
[17:48] <unop> DexterF, jriehle87 -- no "purge" removes the config files too
[17:48] <mdisieno> so recently i ran in an issue with my bluetooth device after an update, according to hci the usb device i have is down, and im getting the dbus error 132 when i try to run blueman-manager via term and hciconfig hci0 up, any ideas?
[17:49] <sujith_s80> I am not able to play avi files in any media players in ubuntu
[17:49] <sujith_s80> can anybody help me
[17:49] <DexterF> jriehle87: good to see someone tries to grab the bull by the command line :)
[17:49] <JohnTeddy> I just formatted a new laptop with Ubuntu 9.10, everything worked except sound ( SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) ). I installed linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic and this fixed sound so my speakers work. When I plugin headphones... the sound still plays through the speakers and not the headphones. I am plugging the jack into the right port, although I tried them all for kicks. No matter what it only plays through the speakers. How can I fix this?
[17:49] <DexterF> sujith_s80: no - you need to tell us what you want to do :)
[17:49] <JohnTeddy> sujith_s80: What does the output of "file file.avi" give you?
[17:50] <blakkheim> sujith_s80: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:50] <sujith_s80> I tried to play a .avi file but iam not able to play
[17:50] <sujith_s80> it is not showing any error for vlc
[17:51] <sujith_s80> but in movie player got a erro "an error occured" no details
[17:51] <mamy> ubottu,plz can you send me the link again for installing the repository i m using another machine plzz
[17:51] <chopin> if, when running lshw -C network, I get a *-network DISABLED, description: Wireless interface --- what can I do to enable it?  using ubuntu 9.10 and it's a fresh install.
[17:51] <sujith_s80> hello can anybody help me plssssssss
[17:52] <DexterF> JohnTeddy: can't really help, sorry, but checking out the alsa channel might be worth a shot. dunno the exact channel name tho
[17:52] <Phong> i think ubuntu is way easy to use then Fedora
[17:53] <DexterF> sujith_s80: tried any other player? kaffeine, smplayer? did you install w32codecs packacge? (or w64codecs if you have a 64bit install?) tried medibuntu?
[17:53] <Phong> is there a 64 bit ubuntu?
[17:53] <DexterF> of course
[17:53] <Phong> i'm currently use the 32 bits
[17:53] <DexterF> since long
[17:53] <hwilde> !64bit
[17:53] <Gesi> hi to everyone
[17:53] <Phong> where can i get the x64 ?
[17:53] <sujith_s80> i tried on diff players but same result
[17:53] <DexterF> Phong: where you got the 32b
[17:53] <hwilde> Phong, download that cd from the website.
[17:53] <sujith_s80> how to install the codec
[17:53] <daftykins> Phong: choose AMD64 / x64 / x86-64 when you download the ISO
[17:54] <daftykins> sujith_s80: what codec?
[17:54] <DexterF> sujith_s80: install the package I told you about
[17:54] <sujith_s80> I was able to play till today morning suddenly I dont know wht happend
[17:54] <sujith_s80> which one ?
[17:54] <Gesi> my ubuntu is always saying me that i am not the root user
[17:54] <DexterF> ...
[17:54] <Phong> thanks
[17:54] <Gesi> what can i do to eleminate it
[17:54] <Myrtti> Gesi: what are you trying to do?
[17:54] <DexterF> sujith_s80: w32codecs
[17:54] <daftykins> sujith_s80: yeah you'll need to tell us what type the video is. AVI is not a file type or a video type, it is a container format
[17:54] <jriehle87> i downloaded songbird from website, it gave me a directory.. now how do i install :)
[17:54] <hwilde> !sudo > Gesi
[17:55] <sujith_s80> how can I check what type of video
[17:55] <sujith_s80> it is a movie file
[17:55] <Gesi> i mean to cancel it from showing
[17:55] <BlouBlou> Gesi: Use sudo su before any commands, is not recommendable, but it won't appear this message
[17:55] <BlouBlou> Gesi: or loggin with root and password
[17:55] <mamy> obottu,if u don t mind plz send me the link for skype plz
[17:56] <blakkheim> BlouBlou: watch out, the ubuntu people will jump all over that statement saying not to use root
[17:56] <hwilde> !skype > mamy
[17:56] <Myrtti> BlouBlou: do not suggest setting root password :-(
[17:56] <sujith_s80> I am not seeing the package w32codecs
[17:56] <sujith_s80> in synaptic manage
[17:56] <hwilde> !root
[17:56] <Myrtti> sujith_s80: do you have medibuntu repository enabled?
[17:56] <DexterF> sujith_s80: "file <filename>
[17:56] <Phong> i have questoin: is it safe to install opera 10 in ubuntu?
[17:56] <capibolso> Phong, yes
[17:56] <frostburn> Phong, define safe?
[17:56] <Phong> thanks
[17:56] <erUSUL> !medibuntu > sujith_s80
[17:57] <BlouBlou> blakkheim: That is because isn't secure stay logged as root for normal use of computer
[17:57] <blakkheim> Phong: it is a proprietary program so that's hard to answer
[17:57] <Phong> oh okay
[17:57] <mamy> ubottu,ok plz how can i see your private mesg i m new in this chat plz help
[17:57] <Myrtti> BlouBlou: this is because root account isn't set by default and setting it might break some applications or shortcuts to them.
[17:57] <capibolso> Phong, it is completely safe
[17:57] <hwilde> "safe" is relative
[17:57] <blakkheim> capibolso: do you have the source code to opera and have checked it?
[17:57] <Phong> i have question: i install game in WINE and in linux where can i fine program in C:\program files\Warcraft III
[17:58] <Myrtti> BlouBlou: also, you're welcome to shoot yourself to your leg, but we'd rather you not tell others do it
[17:58] <blakkheim> capibolso: if not then you can't say if it's safe or not
[17:58] <Phong> i dont know where wine install windows app at
[17:58] <Gesi> mamy: what irc program are you using?
[17:58] <capibolso> blakkheim, it is safe for the 99% of population, then if you are a security freak may be not
[17:58] <Phong> any idea?
[17:58] <BlouBlou> Myrtti: you're wrong, applications' configurations are in differents files, so isn't any problem
[17:59] <drizzt_> Phong, ~/.wine/disk_c usually
[17:59] <Phong> oh okay
[17:59] <Phong> let me try
[17:59] <blakkheim> drizzt_: it's drive_c, not disk_c
[17:59] <mamy> gesi,i m using xchat

[18:03] <luis__> oh ok
[18:03] <drizzt_> Krabmeat, it's there by default
[18:03] <luis__> thanks
[18:04] <Krabmeat> no drizzt, i messed it up
[18:04] <Krabmeat> accidently
[18:04] <Phong> any help to my problem?
[18:04] <Pici> Phong: Try it?

[18:06] <Pici> BigMike: You don't see it on the Ubuntu download page?
[18:07] <thom_logn> I am looking to buy one and install linux on it, but want to know if it comes with everything I need (CD or whatever) to re-install the original host operating system if needed
[18:07] <BigMike> i do but i cant get to it
[18:07] <thom_logn> er, on an hp netbook
[18:07] <hwilde> thom_logn, you could just buy a secondary harddrive and be extra safe.  they are kinda cheap
[18:07] <BigMike> think i got it now
[18:07] <toman> hello there, can somebody help me get my BENQ 5000 scanner to work under ubuntu 9.10?
[18:08] <mamy> hey guys when you download a package and the status is HIT what does it mean i m french speaker sometimes english problem

[18:10] <BigMike> thanks for the link Pici
[18:10] <BigMike> will that work on an intel processor?
[18:10] <topyli> mamy, that's just apt checking the repositories, not a download
[18:11] <mamy> topyli ,thanks
[18:11] <topyli> mamy, happens when you run aptitude update
[18:12] <hwilde> !keytouch
[18:12] <hwilde> Krabmeat, ^
[18:12] <Krabmeat> thank you i am checking that out now!
[18:12] <mamy> topyli,yes i was running apt-get update that s why i see hit
[18:13] <topyli> mamy, ok, it's working fine then :)
[18:13] <Krabmeat> ok heres the deal, i just want to fix my control+c function to Copy
[18:13] <mamy> topyli thanks
[18:14] <Krabmeat> it seems like an easy task that should take another program
[18:14] <Krabmeat> shouldnt*
[18:14] <McL0VIN> i have a question, in GNOME i can access my networked (M$) computer just fine ...how can i do that from CLI
[18:15] <Krabmeat> in the keyboard shortcuts program, they require a Name and a Command
[18:15] <McL0VIN> i don't want to access it from windows...i want to login the srvr (Ubuntu) and access the files on Windows box from command line interface
[18:15] <Krabmeat> Name: Copy, Command: Ctrl+C.... nothing i put works
[18:16] <topyli> !samba | McL0VIN
[18:16] <sheldon_> hello all, i get a strange black screen after "menu install"
[18:16] <topyli> McL0VIN, see the first link there
[18:16] <sujith_s80> hello iam not able to play .avi file....in ubuntu...can anybody help me ?
[18:16] <sheldon_> i get install menu after the screen comes black
[18:17] <daftykins> sujith_s80: i've already told you an AVI file is not a type of video, it's only a container format. find out what the codecs needed are _then_ ask
[18:17] <sheldon_> no access terminal
[18:17] <sujith_s80> how can I know that
[18:17] <sujith_s80> I am telling about the file extn
[18:17] <Krabmeat> uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhg
[18:18] <daftykins> yes which means nothing in video. there might be a menu in VLC for file info
[18:18] <chopin> !broadcom
[18:18] <topyli> sujith_s80,  do you have the ubuntu-restricted-extras package installed?
[18:18] <sheldon_> anybody knows how can i solve this ?
[18:18] <sujith_s80> yes
[18:18]  * Claudiu is away: Away for now...I'll be back
[18:18] <person> I'm looking for a media player like Listen suitable for Xfce and isn't Quod Libet. I'm guessing that things that use Gnome libraries will tend to be heavier?
[18:19] <sujith_s80> codec is h264
[18:19] <daftykins> !medibuntu | sujith_s80
[18:20] <sheldon_> no idea for my install ?
[18:20] <Krabmeat> Keytouch is for extra function keys. ALL i want to do is fix control+C to  = copy
[18:21] <topyli> Krabmeat, that's copy by default. how did it break?
[18:21] <trism> Krabmeat: ctrl+c is implemented on a per-application basis, it isn't system-wide
[18:21] <mamy> topyli,can u plz check your private box i tried to send some output plz
[18:21] <Krabmeat> i didnt know it was default, so i tried to do it myself...... bad move cuz now it doesnt work at all
[18:22] <Krabmeat> i get the same error regardless of application
[18:22] <hwilde> Krabmeat, what did you do exactly
[18:23] <Krabmeat> i went into keyboard shortcuts and tried to add one called Copy
[18:23] <toman> can anyone help me with my benq 5000 scanner ? I cant get it to work under ubuntu :(
[18:23] <Krabmeat> it asks for a name & command
[18:24] <Krabmeat> so i put name: Copy, command: Ctrl+C
[18:24] <Krabmeat> didnt work, so i tried Copy, Copy.. didnt work
[18:24] <skinnymg1> hello all
[18:24] <nibbler> Krabmeat, if you talk about keyboard shortcut, command is the binary to execute, like /usr/bin/xkill
[18:25] <person> I'm looking for a media player like Listen suitable for Xfce and isn't Quod Libet. I'm guessing that things that use Gnome libraries will tend to be heavier when used with Xfce?
[18:25] <Pici> Krabmeat: So delete the shortcut that you added.  By the way, what were you trying to copy from in the first place when you thought it wasn't working
[18:25] <nibbler> Krabmeat, the shortcut is configured later
[18:25] <skinnymg1> im looking for a simple to use gui backup app for Ubuntu
[18:25] <Krabmeat> i have no idea what the binary to execute means
[18:25] <Pici> Krabmeat: There is none.
[18:25] <trism> Krabmeat: it means program to run
[18:26] <benklein> I am trying to compile a package from source, and I get an error that "You don't have gtk+-2.0 installed". What does this error mean and how do I install gtk+-2.0 on Karmic?
[18:26] <Flare183> !backup | skinnymg1
[18:26] <topyli> person, if you like listen, use listen
[18:26] <Krabmeat> so it should be blank?
[18:26] <Pici> Krabmeat: Keyboard shortcuts are not applicable to what you are trying to do.
[18:26] <person> topyli: I do, but it's buggy in my distro (I came here because I need to register my nick to go to ##linux and because I'm a mysterious fellow, I don't want to do that) :P
[18:27] <Krabmeat> pici what do you mean?
[18:27] <Krabmeat> i cant create a shortcut to copy text?
[18:27] <trism> benklein: you probably need libgtk2.0-dev
[18:27] <topyli> person, maybe exaile then. btw, which distro? don't they have their own channels?
[18:27] <Pici> Krabmeat: You don't need to.
[18:28] <benklein> trism: thanks
[18:28] <Krabmeat> i do, because i cant copy text now, i get an error message
[18:28] <person> topyli: Debian, but I thought people would kill me if I asked for suggestions of software there. I thought #ubuntu would be more appropriate since it's for desktop users
[18:29] <wocks> hi all. desktop effects don't work on my dell studio 15 (ati radeon 4500). what should i do? install the proprietary driver? please help!!
[18:29] <Pici> Krabmeat: You're getting an error message because you created a keyboard shortcut, setting ctrl-c as the key and it doesn't point to a valid application.  If you press the remove button when your custom command is hilighted then you will not have an error anymore.  Then we can discuss why you thought you needed to do this in the first place.
[18:29] <topyli> person, ubuntu users even. :)  -- i doubt #debian is *that* lethal though
[18:30] <person> topyli: In Banshee (all distros), I get a massive list of albums - one item for each artist, it seems.
[18:30] <Krabmeat> pici: one problem now, i cant find it to remove and i still get the message
[18:30] <Pici> Krabmeat: It should be at the bottom of the keyboard shortcuts list
[18:31] <Krabmeat> Pici: it is not, as soon as i tried to make one without a command it got erased or something.
[18:31] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:31] <topyli> person, if you want to discuss media players with ubuntu folks, please join #ubuntu-offtopic instead of this channel
[18:32] <Pici> Krabmeat: Odd.  Let me try this myself and see if I can fix it.  One moment.
[18:32] <person> thanks topyli
[18:32] <Krabmeat> pici: ok thank you!
[18:33] <jriehle87> !copy
[18:33] <jriehle87> !copyandpaste
[18:33] <benklein> Now it says that I don't have libxml-2.0 > 2.6.0 installed. Which package provides this?
[18:34] <userfriendly> hello. simple and maybe somewhat stupid question... can i use the hosts file to simulate round robin dns? if so, how / where can i tell my machine not to cache the entries?
[18:34] <trism> benklein: when compiling software, apt-cache search package_name is your friend (in this case, apt-cache search libxml dev
[18:34] <Dravekx> why is proftpd so slow????
[18:34] <jriehle87> !pastebin
[18:34] <jchsonez> hi?
[18:35] <Dravekx> vsftpd is fast, but doesnt do what I need, and proftp does what I need, but is super slow.
[18:35] <Dravekx> so odd.
[18:35] <ardchoille> Murphy's Law
[18:35] <Dravekx> no doubt.
[18:36] <sheldon_> after install menu, i get black screen, cd continue to install but i see nothing in screen, i know there is a kernel option to solve this problem but i dont remember, anyone knows this kind of problem ?
[18:36] <trism> benklein: libxml2-dev is probably what you want in this case
[18:37] <sheldon_> i tried option from install menu (F4) but nothing work
[18:37] <Pici> Krabmeat: Do you still have the keyboard shortcuts window open?
[18:38] <Krabmeat> Pici: no should i reopen it
[18:38] <Pici> Krabmeat: Can you?  And then see if it gives an error when you use ctrl-c ?
[18:39] <Krabmeat> pici: yep still does
[18:40] <sheldon_> no idea ??
[18:40] <benklein> trism: Thanks for all the advice. I also did apt-cache search for the next package that it needed, and now it works.
[18:40] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay, can you open a terminal and change the directory to ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/keybindings/
[18:40] <Pici> Krabmeat: And tell me what folders you see in there
[18:41] <ardchoille> benklein: you can also do "apt-cache search -n packagename" to search only package names
[18:42] <Krabmeat> pici: there is no keybindings folder there
[18:43] <Pici> Krabmeat: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[18:43] <Krabmeat> pici: no idea, how do i find out:-D
[18:44] <Pici> Krabmeat: use the    lsb_release -a    command
[18:44] <Riot89> salve
[18:44] <ardchoille> Pici: I'm on Karmic that I don't have that dir either
[18:44] <toman> Ok, i'll try it again: I'm using ubuntu 9.10 and i have a BENQ 5000 SCANNER. Under windows XP it was using MiraScan 6.3. Can somebody help me make it run on ubuntu 9.10 ?
[18:44] <Krabmeat> pici: Ubuntu 9.1
[18:44] <ardchoille> Krabmeat: That's Karmic Koala :)
[18:45] <Pici> Krabmeat: Have you logged out and logged back in since you made that keybinding?
[18:45] <toman> all i found in google was a guy who said "i found a was to make it work" and gives a link. But the link is broken :(
[18:46] <Krabmeat> pici: the ctrl+C command hasnt worked in a long time
[18:46] <tonsofpcs> dist-up time...
[18:46] <Pici> Krabmeat: You mean its been giving that error for a long time?
[18:46] <Krabmeat> pici: yes
[18:46] <filip_> how i can settle the the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia kayboard
[18:46] <Pici> Krabmeat: What does the error say again?
[18:47] <Miracle> My sound stopped working can someone help me?
[18:47] <Krabmeat> pici: Error while trying to run Copy which is linked to the key (<control>C)
[18:47] <topyli> toman, it is claimed to work with the snapscan driver, which we have out of the box: http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=benq&model=5000&bus=any&v=&p=
[18:48] <jriehle87> how do i change the icons of a shortcut?
[18:48] <topyli> toman, but i'm guessing it does not? :)
[18:49] <jriehle87> how do i change the icon on my desktop/
[18:49] <sd32> !sound
[18:49] <toman> topyli, no it does not :(
[18:50] <rootEth> jriehle87, think you right click on it then properties, then click on the icon and select location of a new one
[18:50] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay. Can you run the following: grep -R "Copy" ~/.gconf/
[18:50] <jriehle87> rootEth: ill try that thanks
[18:50] <isidro> buenas tardes...
[18:50] <Pici> Krabmeat: And let me know if there are any results?
[18:50] <rootEth> I've only been using it 2 days so dont blame me if I'm wrong :P
[18:50] <isidro> alguien me podria echar la mano con el cliente de no-ip
[18:51] <ardchoille> !es | isidro
[18:51] <topyli> toman, ok. i'm not very good with non-working scanners i'm afraid. if you don't get help here, try the forums
[18:51] <Krabmeat> pici: what should have happened? because it didnt error but it also didnt seem to do anything
[18:51] <jchsonez> ji?
[18:51] <Pici> Krabmeat: hmm
[18:52] <toman> topyli, i'll try :) I'll read a little bit more first. Tnx :)
[18:52] <saica> hello!
[18:52] <topyli> toman, cheers, good luck :)
[18:52] <nintnint> Hey, I know this is a simple problem because I've had it before but I can't remember how to fix it.  VLC is player a video in a seperate window, not in the player itself.
[18:52] <Pici> Krabmeat: It should have told you the file that contained that shortcut.  Are you sure that Copy was capitalized in the error message you were getting?
[18:52] <nintnint> How do I make the video and the player controls in one window?
[18:52] <MASARUwota> nintnint: what player?
[18:52] <Krabmeat> pici: yes, but it was in parenthesis
[18:53] <Krabmeat> pici: would that make a difference
[18:53] <nintnint> VLC Media Player
[18:53] <Pici> Krabmeat: Nope.
[18:53] <nintnint> VIdeoLAN
[18:53] <MASARUwota> nintnint: you cant do that in linux-vlc
[18:53] <topyli> MASARUwota, sure you can :)
[18:53] <MASARUwota> :X
[18:53] <nintnint> I've done it before..
[18:53] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay, there is one other thing we can try.  Can you press alt-f2 and then type gconf-editor and press enter
[18:54] <MASARUwota> nvm what i said
[18:54] <nintnint> Thanks for the thought though :)
[18:54] <aperson> doesn't one need a non-ubuntu version to get that though?
[18:54] <saica> in ubuntu jaunty, with Catalyst 9.3 (fglrx 8.593) and all the necessary packages downgraded to use it, video playback tends to suddenly go crazy.  It plays fine sometimes... other times the a/v gets way out of sync. once it breaks down it doesn't go back. this affects all video playing software.
[18:54] <topyli> nintnint, the video outputs don't all work with it, dunno why
[18:54] <Krabmeat> pici: ok did that
[18:54] <MASARUwota> aperson: ?
[18:54] <nintnint> Which one do I want?
[18:54] <blakkheim> saica: don't buy from ati - enemy of your freedom
[18:55] <nintnint> OpenGL and X11 both give me seperate windows
[18:55] <nintnint> separate.
[18:55] <hwilde> nvidia > ati.
[18:55] <topyli> nintnint, if you have the 'default' video output selected, vlc may be selecting one that doesn't. i don't know what's good :(
[18:55] <Pici> Krabmeat: Can you navigate to desktop/gnome/keybindings ?
[18:55] <saica> blankheim: a lesson i have learned all too well. unfortunately i'm stuck with the card until i make enough money to buy and nvidia.
[18:55] <Krabmeat> pici: yes
[18:56] <topyli> nintnint, grrr, mine is at 'default' so i can't tell
[18:56] <Pici> Krabmeat: Is there any sub key in there that is called Custom0 or similar? (on the left side, not the right where it says allowed_keys[])
[18:56]  * saica is currently watching a video with no problems, after a reboot.. feels like the windows way of doing things..
[18:57] <aperson> saica, likely all you needed to do was restart x, not restart :)
[18:57] <Krabmeat> pici: It has a column that says Name and a column that says Value. Are you asking me what is in the volume column?
[18:57] <Krabmeat> pici: Value*
[18:57] <ecs160> hi, so i just installed ubuntu and then the proprietary driver for nvidia, but as soon as i restart X the resolution gets set too high and i cant access the nvidia tool to fix it
[18:57] <Pici> Krabmeat: No, rather in the 'subfolders' of the keybindings folder
[18:57] <Slart> saica: linux is getting there.. slowly.. just wait a little longer and we'll have love-worms too ;)
[18:58] <saica> aperson: restarted x many times. doing so causes the problem to go away for a few minutes...
[18:58] <saica> love-worms?
[18:58] <Krabmeat> pici: ok the subfolders are magnifier, onscreenkeyboard and screenreader
[18:58] <newbie_>  hi, how do i know what is the name of my local mysql database name? is there any way to know?
[18:58] <ecs160> does this mean i have to set up my Xorg manually? and if so .. how?
[18:58] <hwilde> newbie_, show tables
[18:58] <Slart> saica: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ILOVEYOU
[18:59] <sheldon_> i have this problem, balck screen after install menu -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqXsKKFgCwg
[18:59] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay, can you try ctrl-c again and see if it errors out?
[18:59] <sheldon_> i know i need a kernel option to solve this but i dont remember
[18:59] <ecs160> newbie_, i think its in /var/lib/mysql
[18:59] <Krabmeat> pici: still have the same error
[18:59] <ecs160> theres a folder per database
[18:59] <newbie_> hwildehow about using terminal? is that possible?
[18:59] <saica> i hear great things about the open source drivers lately... but I have an RV516... which is too old of the new fglrx and too new for the open source...
[18:59] <shane2peru> why is brasero taking an eternity to burn a dvd iso?  It has been 15min and hasn't even started burning?  What is going on?
[18:59] <hwilde> sheldon_, did you check the cd for errors?  try reburning it at a lower speed
[19:00] <sheldon_> yes i try this
[19:00] <sheldon_> already same result
[19:00] <ecs160> can anyone help me get my X up?
[19:00] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay, go to Edit>Find enter   Copy    in the text field (with the capital C) check the two boxes and press find.
[19:00] <Krabmeat> pici: can i just set the allowed_keys to default?
[19:00] <hwilde> sheldon_, can it run the live cd ok?  only the install fails ?
[19:01] <Pici> Krabmeat: What is it set to now?
[19:01] <sheldon_> no ths livecd runs, i heard sound from login screen but screen is already4 black
[19:01] <Krabmeat> pici: the value is []
[19:01] <saica> ecs160, can you fill me on what's been happening to your X? recently i've had a lot of experience making x run when it doesn't want to.
[19:01] <Krabmeat> pici: the find found no results
[19:01] <hwilde> sheldon_, so the livecd also fails
[19:01] <sheldon_> hwilde yes
[19:02] <Pici> Krabmeat: You can enter something in there, then it will only use that custom keybinding (like if you have other entries in that keybinding folder that you want to use, or just something that doesnt exist so nothing would ever match)
[19:02] <Alexchr> I'm having trouble using middle click on 9.10
[19:02] <sheldon_> but it doesnt fails, just i donc have screen
[19:02] <Pici> Krabmeat: er, I'm not sure if I explained that well, let me know if I need to rephrase it.
[19:02] <sheldon_> i dont see the screen, but install runs
[19:02] <zubuntu> ola
[19:02] <Krabmeat> pici: so setting it to default wont do anything for me?
[19:03] <shane2peru> brasero has been setting there preparing to burn disk for 15min, why??
[19:03] <zubuntu> que tal alguien habla español
[19:03] <topyli> !es  | zubuntu
[19:03] <genii> !es | zubuntu
[19:03] <Pici> Krabmeat: Setting it to nearly anything other than empty will be okay, but other custom keybindings that you may have created won't work.
[19:03]  * saica ...and boom.. audio video sync explosion...
[19:04] <Pici> Krabmeat: We can try setting it to something that doesn't exist just to test if it will work.
[19:04] <zubuntu> a ok gracias es que soy nuevo i no se bien como va gracias
[19:04] <Krabmeat> pici: i am up for it if you are
[19:04] <Pici> Krabmeat: Can't hurt.
[19:04] <Zer> Howdy. I noticed that 'other' has read access on /home and all the subdirectories... is there a reason this has to be the case? Seems like it might be problematic.
[19:05] <shane2peru> !es | zubuntu
[19:05] <jriehle87> does fraps work with ubuntu?
[19:05] <hwilde> shane2peru, you are probably transcoding the dvd into a compressed format and that is taking a long time.  check your system resources see if your processor and memory are maxxing out
[19:06] <Pici> Krabmeat: Just edit the value and add something such as 'testing' in there and then see if ctrl-c errors
[19:06] <shane2peru> hwilde, it is an OpenSuse DVD downloaded, it is an iso as source, I guess I should have mentioned that, is that normal?
[19:06] <hwilde> shane2peru, well you have two options 1) wait  2) cancel and start over.
[19:07] <shane2peru> hwilde, I usually use k3b in gnome, but seems like it is pulling in even more kde deps, so I got rid of it,
[19:07] <saica> audio now poppy and ocassionally out of sync... (it's like the audio and video go for a little race... they catch up eventually, but the audio sprints off first and then the video skips around a corner to catch it...)
[19:07] <Krabmeat> pici: still errors
[19:07] <Pici> Krabmeat: argh
[19:07] <Pici> Krabmeat: This is frustrating
[19:07] <Pici> Krabmeat: You do run gnome, right?
[19:08] <Krabmeat> pici: listen, i am not entirely sure what gnome even is
[19:08] <shane2peru> hwilde, well, I guess my question is, is that normal for it to take that long?  I have burnt other iso with brasero, and don't remember waiting that long, odd.
[19:08] <jriehle87> anyone know a good app to video tape ubuntu as well as gaming?
[19:08] <Pici> Krabmeat: Um. Do you see a menu at the top of your screen that says Applications  Places  System  ?
[19:08] <hwilde> shane2peru, dvds are big.
[19:08] <seana> Hey Everyone, I deleted the directory /etc/postgresql thinking that on a re-install it would be created... It was created but the files were not. On re-install the files are still sitting in /usr/share/postgresql/...... How do I tell apt (or dpkg) to move the appropriate files over?
[19:08] <Krabmeat> pici: yes
[19:09] <saganbyte>  I ve just installed phpmyadmin using aptitude install phpmyadmin and everything went smoothly, though i cannot access it using localhost/phpmyadmin... what could i be doing wrong
[19:09] <Krabmeat> pici: yes
[19:09] <newbie_>  hi, how do i know what is the name of my local mysql database name? is there any way to know using terminal?
[19:09] <Krabmeat> oops
[19:10] <seana> saganbyte: Check to see if your apache alias was added. It probably wasn't.
[19:10] <saganbyte> seana, ah...
[19:10] <saganbyte> seana how do i check that
[19:11] <saica> also, anybody tried installing firefox 3.5 in ubuntu? if ever i do, it depends on xulrunner-1.9.1--which never reaches the end of it's postinst script
[19:11] <Pici> Krabmeat: Okay one last thing.  Please install pastebinit: sudo apt-get install pastebinit      then run     grep -R Copy ~/ | pastebinit
[19:11] <hwilde> Pici, fyi, I am liking this approach :)
[19:11] <yadudoc> Hi , I can't send any files from my nokia phone to my laptop(9.10). Does anyone know a fix for this ?
[19:12] <Flannel> seana: You need to purge the packages that those files are in (which may not be the main postgres one, but probably is in some -common one)
[19:12] <seana> Saganbyte: look in your /etc/phpmyadmin directory for an apache.conf file
[19:12] <kenyo> lolz
[19:12] <MASARUwota> !lol|kenyo
[19:12] <saganbyte> seana, ok thanks :)
[19:13] <seana> Flannel: I used dpkg -l | grep post   to locate the installed apps and have done purges of each one... :(
[19:13] <seana> saganbyte: No worries.
[19:13] <Flannel> seana: dpkg -S /path/to/file will tell you what package they're from
[19:13] <himuraken> Just loaded Ubuntu 9.10 server and the Grub install suceeded without errror. Now on boot I am at grub-rescue. Grub was instructed to install to /dev/sdc1, but from the grub-rescue   ls   shows hd* devices. How can I modify the config from rescue?
[19:13] <Pici> Krabmeat: When thats done, please let us know what the link that the command outputed is. Should be http://pastebin.com/something
[19:13] <rootEth> has anyone got tf2 working properly on ubuntu 9.10?
[19:14] <saganbyte> seana, sorry, gnome xchat closed on its own... somehow apps are getting closed on hitting enter
[19:14] <saganbyte> even evolution closes when i hit enter after adding a task
[19:14] <rww> rootEth: I've gotten it to start a few months ago. The sound and graphics were rather messed up to the point of it being unplayable, though :(
[19:14] <rek> hi i want a manual to use mldonkey to download files what can i do? i'm tryig to add some servers but i think i don't know how to use telnet i don't even know what telnet is probably, should i configure it? can you help me?
[19:14] <rootEth> yeah, I got wine workign with it and had sound but no mic
[19:14] <rek> hi pici
[19:14] <rootEth> but then I dont think mic works on ubuntu full stop tbh
[19:15] <rootEth> but on wine it had no menus or scoreboard etc
[19:15] <rootEth> I tried crossover and thats fine graphically, but got no sound
[19:15] <BluesKaj> rek, use ssh , telnet is not secure
[19:15] <Krabmeat> pici: i did what you said.. it looked like it tried to get in like 50 folders but didnt have permission
[19:15] <seana> Flannel: It shows it's from postgresql-8.4, and it's showing the files in the /usr/share/postgresql directory... however when I first installed the app the files were also placed in /etc/postgresql
[19:15] <rek> BluesKaj: ssh for mldonkey?
[19:15] <Pici> Krabmeat: Its okay, is it still running?
[19:15] <llutz> BluesKaj: mldonkey has no ssh-plugin
[19:16] <rek> hi pici i must use mldonkey
[19:16] <xangua> !sudo
[19:16] <Pici> rek: er, okay?
[19:16] <rek> hi i want a manual to use mldonkey to download files what can i do? i'm tryig to add some servers but i think i don't know how to use telnet i don't even know what telnet is probably, should i configure it? can you help me?
[19:16] <Krabmeat> pici: well, it hasnt gotten to the normal home directory line yet.. but it hasnt done aynthing in a few minuites
[19:16] <llutz> rek: www.mldonkey.org
[19:16] <Myrtti> yadudoc: how are you trying to send them?
[19:16] <rek> llutz in italian?
[19:17] <Pici> Krabmeat: It may take a while. Its searching through all the files in your home directory
[19:17] <fjordside> where to add a command to set the power mode of my wlan nic during startup, i dont want to make a new file for it... it is only one line and used to be in bootmisc, that is now gone?
[19:17] <Zer> Will anything break in Ubuntu if I change the umask to 077 by default?
[19:17] <Roasted_> hey guys - when I hit ALT F2. Nothing happens. I'm testing out gnome shell, but I dont think it should prevent me from using ALT F2 to issue a command (which if I could, I could fix a different problem Im having) what gives?
[19:18] <yadudoc> Myrtti, from the phone, using the normal send via bluetooth mode... it refuses saying unable to connect to the laptop
[19:19] <Myrtti> yadudoc: do you  have the required apps installed?
[19:19] <schatan> where do i get coretemp module?
[19:19] <Flannel> seana: purge that package, also postgresql-common, hmm, none of these packages seem to have much in /etc though
[19:19] <Flannel> The_Verve: Please don't do that
[19:20] <seana> I'm puzzled why it put stuff in /etc the first time...
[19:20] <trism> seana: postgresql doesn't seem to like to properly purge the files so you can recreate the defaults, I believe I managed to get it to work by purging both postgresql-8.4 and postgresql-common, then deleting the /etc/postgresql and /etc/postgresql-common and then reinstalling successfully recreated those /etc directories
[19:20] <methods> does ubuntu REMIX cause all windows to start MAXIMIZED ?
[19:21] <seana> trism: I'll give that a try again
[19:21] <yadudoc> Myrtti, :) I was working with gnome-bluetooth package... and it simply doesn't let me do the receive file from phone.. now i installed blueman, it removed the gnome-bluetooth package.. but file receive works..
[19:21] <methods> all my windows start MAXIMIZED !!!
[19:21] <yadudoc> Myrtti, i need to see if that broke something else
[19:21] <filip_> i can't find haw to choose a different nickname or haw to identify, for the /msg NickServ identify <passvord> i receiving the following: File not foundFirefox can't find the file at /msg NickServ identify <password>.
[19:22] <Myrtti> yadudoc: IIRC obex-data-server might be what you've looked for
[19:22] <Flannel> filip_: Do that in your chat window (where you're typing right now) not the address bar
[19:23] <Roasted_> Is there another way I can do the ALT F2 thing? ALT F2 isnt working on my system for some reason. How else can I use ALT F2 to issue a command?
[19:23] <hwilde> Roasted_, its  ctrl+alt+f2
[19:23] <yadudoc> Myrtti, i tried that too... did not work... btw right now blueman is working like a wiz.... sending files at 170kbps over bluetooth compared to speeds of 50-70kbps for old gnome-bluetooth
[19:23] <Krabmeat> pici: it seems like its stuck. hasnt done anything in like 10 mins
[19:23] <ardchoille> Roasted_: are you using ubuntu with the gnome desktop?
[19:24] <SandGorgon> anyone know if the development of mrxvt is going ahead - it's my favorite terminal .. so much faster and just as many features as gnome-term
[19:24] <chopin> anyone know of the proper, up-to-date, foolproof broadcom troubleshooting page?  found about a dozen out there with conflicting ideas ...
[19:24] <yadudoc> Myrtti, i installed almost everypackage synaptic listed with bluetooth in the name... finally its working :)
[19:25] <jrib> !wifi | chopin, the wiki is usually the best place
[19:25] <yadudoc> Myrtti, thanks anyway for your help
[19:25] <wh19011> I use..
[19:25] <Roasted> hey thanks hwilde. It killed my display and I had to reboot.
[19:25] <SandGorgon> chopin, I have broadcom b43 as wel - the best way I found was to install b43-fwcutter
[19:25] <chopin> ubottu: mmkay, thanks ... /me keeps reading
[19:25] <Pici> Krabmeat: er.  Press ctrl-c to cancel it (hopefully your error won't cause that to fail) and then run find -R Copy ~/ > tempfile ; pastebinit tempfile
[19:25] <chopin> SandGorgon: yeah, ran some b43-fwcutter stuff but still kinda confused :-/
[19:26] <ardchoille> Roasted: you could have pressed ctrl+alt+f7 to return to your desktop
[19:26] <Roasted> If ALT F2 doesnt work on my karmic laptop to issue a command, how else can I do it?
[19:26] <ardchoille> Roasted: are  you using gnome? and is your panel working?
[19:26] <infid> anyone know quicksynergy? I'm running it and ps ax says 'synergys -f --config .quicksynergy/synergy.c' is running but netstat doesn't show anything on port 24800 and it's not working when i move my mouse off screen
[19:27] <Krabmeat> pici: you mean hit q to cancel
[19:27] <Roasted> ardchoille - Im using gnome, yes, but Im using gnome shell. Testing it out. Previously I had ALT F2 working, but ALT F2 doesnt work now and I have no idea why.
[19:27] <Pici> Krabmeat: q?
[19:27] <filip_> Thank you for your orientation, Flannel.
[19:27] <SandGorgon> chopin, run /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
[19:27] <ardchoille> Roasted: that may be the reason. hit the Super key and use the Find box to launch apps
[19:27] <Krabmeat> pici: why would control+c cancel this process?
[19:27] <aliquerer> i want to create a "blog" but only for private, i.e. not publishing it only have it on my computer like diary. How do i do?
[19:28] <rek> llutz: i dn't see about the configuration without using the web interface
[19:28] <chopin> SandGorgon: cool, i'll try that
[19:28] <Roasted> ardchollie - The thing is, Im having a small issue in gnome shell which is a common bug and its being looked at. The current fix it to ALT F2 and type restart. Thta fixes the issue. But I cant get to ALT F2 to issue that command...
[19:28] <ardchoille> Roasted: I used gnome shell but I don't remember ever trying alt+f2
[19:28] <Pici> Krabmeat: ctrl-c is used on linux terminals to stop a running process
[19:28] <rek> pici is there a conf file of mldonkey ?
[19:28] <Roasted> ardchoille - My mouse cursor disappears when I click on Activities. A few other users reported it. The work around was ALT F2 "restart" and it fixed it.
[19:28] <nintnint> so turns out I just needed to go into synaptic and say prefer jaunty
[19:28] <Pici> rek: I don't know, I've never used the program.
[19:28] <ardchoille> Roasted: weird
[19:28] <Krabmeat> pici: oh, i get the same error message
[19:29] <nintnint> oh what a tangled web i wove
[19:29] <Roasted> ardchoille - but like I said, I cant get to ALT F2 to issue restart so Im stuck... do you know any way else I can get to ALT F2?
[19:29] <Pici> Krabmeat: Did the running process stop?
[19:29] <Krabmeat> pici: it wont cancel
[19:29] <ardchoille> Roasted: no, sorry
[19:29] <Pici> Krabmeat: press ctrl-z then and then run kill -9 whateverNumberItReported
[19:30] <rek> llutz: i dn't see about the configuration without using the web interface
[19:30] <LucidGuy> Anyone familiar with ddrescue images?  Trying to mount the image created by ddrescue(gddrescue) and it continues to give me type errors etc.  I'm not too sure if it was a fat or ntfs.  It seems that the disk label is damaged and have no idea how to restore, any advice would be appreciated.
[19:31] <Krabmeat> pici: ok no numbers were reported, but it is back to the normal start
[19:31] <Parabola> LucidGuy,  what errors are you getting
[19:31] <Krabmeat> pici: now should i run the find command you stated earlier
[19:31] <Pici> Krabmeat: Good enough.  Yes, please
[19:32] <LucidGuy> parabola, disk label errors.
[19:32] <Xpistos|work> How do I know if a site is using silverlight?

[19:33] <aliquerer> i want to create a "blog" but only for private, i.e. not publishing it only have it on my computer like diary. How do i do?
[19:33] <jrib> obiwan_: that's a question for youtube
[19:33] <Krabmeat> pici: says "unknown predicate -R"
[19:33] <obiwan_> download a template and start it aliquerer , it's that easy :)
[19:34] <obiwan_> ok i'll try a #youtube channel thanks jrib
[19:34] <aliquerer> obiwan_: what template
[19:34] <Roasted> Hey guys - I don't have ALT F2 functionality anymore. My key binding for it is correct. Tried others - no dice. How can I get ALT F2 to work again?
[19:34] <jrib> obiwan_: check their website on how to contact them
[19:34] <mtaftm> Hello anyone good with webcam issues? would appreciate the help x]

[19:34] <jrib> !webcam | mtaftm
[19:34] <Pici> Krabmeat: Sory, I gave you the wrong command. Its:   grep -R Copy ~/ > tempfile ; pastebinit tempfile
[19:34] <obiwan_> don't know aliquerer , search blog templates
[19:34] <llutz> aliquerer: install local webserver (lightttp), php, mysql and blog-soft of your choice (i.e. wordpress)
[19:34] <ardchoille> jrib: he's using gnome-shell
[19:35] <Roasted> jrib - using gnome-shell. But it worked previously. I rebooted and it stopped working. :(
[19:35] <obiwan_> jrib: i don't feel like mailing youtube staff and stuff just to ask this question, i'll try a youtube chan or a video chan or sth
[19:35] <obiwan_> ahah that's  funny , roasted -(j)rib xP

[19:40] <Pici> Krabmeat: I have a bad feeling too
[19:40] <zoobox> obiwan_: nope. no french here.   je ne pas parles francais :-)
[19:40] <Myrtti> Colloguy: not that I know of.

[19:43] <genii> zoobox: So Fileroller
[19:43] <ekristen> good afternoon
[19:43] <Myrtti> ekristen: evening
[19:44] <ekristen> I have an AMD Athlon 64 3400+ put my /proc/cpuinfo shows it as only as a 1000 MHz processor?!
[19:44] <ekristen> its a 2.2GHz processor
[19:44] <Myrtti> ekristen: would you perhaps have powerstepping on?
[19:44] <EpsilonEX> Hello, question: I messed up my GUI in Ubuntu NBR and want to copy files in my home directory while using a bootable flash drive but can't because I don
[19:44] <infid> ubuntu keeps playing sounds whenever firefox shows a popup. how can i disable that?
[19:44] <Roasted> MASARUwota - ALT F2 doesnt work for me. It just doesnt. Granted Im testing gnome shell, but it was working a half hour ago. Now its just dead. Even tried other hot keys for it.
[19:44] <MrKeuner> hello, top shows load average as 3.61 for the last minute but I cannot see any cpu usage higher than 23%/400% on a 4 core system, how can I see which app is causing system slow down?
[19:44] <ekristen> Myrtti: not familiar with that? what is it?
[19:45] <daftykins> ekristen: watch -n 0.1 'cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz'
[19:45] <EpsilonEX> Hello, question: I messed up my GUI in Ubuntu NBR and want to copy files in my home directory while using a bootable flash drive but can't because I don't have the permissions. How do I gain permissions so I can do that. (sorry, accidentally pressed enter before)
[19:45] <daftykins> cause some load, then see if your clocks change
[19:45] <Myrtti> ekristen: when the applications and programs need more processing power, the processor speed is hastened
[19:45] <blakkheim> daftykins: why would you do that? grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo
[19:45]  * daftykins wonders why Myrtti doesn't grace the UK chan anymore (:
[19:46] <daftykins> blakkheim: to cut out all the unnecessary junk. try it.
[19:46] <Myrtti> ekristen: it's to do with powersaving and overheating
[19:46] <blakkheim> daftykins: they give exactly the same output
[19:46] <ekristen> jr,
[19:46] <ekristen> hrm
[19:46] <ekristen> anything wrong with turning it off?
[19:46] <daftykins> blakkheim: no, it's dynamic, by using 'watch' you keep checking it every 0.1 seconds
[19:47] <daftykins> so then run some programs to create load, and if intel speedstep / amd cool'n'quiet is in place, it'll show you the core frequency change.
[19:47] <frangor> join #launchpad
[19:47] <frangor> ups
[19:47] <SandGorgon> MrKeuner, I hope u have basic optimizations in place, e.g. noatime for your filesystem mounts, etc.
[19:48] <mtaftm> my linux just restarted sorry, anyway yes anyone good at solving webcam issues?
[19:48] <EpsilonEX> I'll wait, should be fairly simple, just asking how to change permissions on another linux drive
[19:48] <SandGorgon> mtaftm, i recently compiled drivers for my uvc webcam
[19:48] <ekristen> Myrtti: any problems with disabling it? I am trying to verify that it does change
[19:48] <pha> hi there, I have ubuntu 9.10 server - I just installed ubuntu-desktop ... and rebooted, but it's still not running desktop, have I done something wrong? .... any help would be greatly appreciated!
[19:48] <mtaftm> SandGorgon: my knowledge on linux is very little what do you mean ?
[19:49] <daftykins> pha confirm it's installed properly by running "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" or "sudo service gdm start"
[19:49] <ekristen> Myrtti: I see it fluctuating
[19:49] <SandGorgon> mtaftm, why dont u install a software called "cheese" and see if ur webcam works
[19:49] <Myrtti> ekristen: if you don't mind an increased powerusage, shorter batterylife if using a laptop and perhaps a bit higher CPU temperatures, then no. But for normal user, there's no need to disable it
[19:49] <pha> gdm start/running, process 3965 ... seems to be running then.
[19:49] <urthmover> I am trying to build a plugin for irssi.  part of a config file is asking for  "export IRSSI_INCLUDE=/path/to/irssi/sources"  considering I installed irssi using  sudo apt-get install irssi  What is the path to the irssi sources?
[19:50] <ekristen> Myrtti: its a media center, encoding a lot of video
[19:50] <pha> but when I type ps aux I don't see the process?
[19:50] <ekristen> so I am trying to decide if it will be of advantage for me to disable it
[19:50] <Myrtti> ekristen: the cpu speed should go up when needed
[19:50] <daftykins> pha: hit ctrl+alt+f7
[19:50] <mtaftm> SandGorgon: i have already tryed cheese but had no luck, or webcam studio , also i went into gstreamer properties no luck there either
[19:50] <Myrtti> and stay up too
[19:50] <thevishy> xubuntu desktop ?
[19:50] <thevishy> how to remove ....
[19:50] <thevishy> !dpkg
[19:50] <ekristen> cool thanks
[19:50] <pha> daftykins, isn't doing a thing mate.
[19:50] <zoobox> genii: ah thanks. I must have looked into compressed files now and then
[19:50] <Myrtti> ekristen: you'll probably not even notice a difference in performance, how much RAM do you have?
