[13:44] <dimas_> is that true that to be able to get the names of the songs from your mp3 the application have to compare the info from the cd to a database on the internet?
[13:44] <Dr_Willis_> dimas_:  thers several online music and movie database sites.
[13:45] <tyreza> there is list of question i have to answer yes is that normal ? dr_willis
[13:45] <Dr_Willis_> tyreza:  if it finds proboems you tell it to fix them.. or use the -y option to auto fix
[13:45] <dimas_> Dr_Willis_ how about if my mp3 have custom metadata?
[13:45] <tyreza> i put yes for all ?
[13:45] <Dr_Willis_> dimas_:  some apps can read the id3 tags

[13:45] <Dr_Willis_> you do want it to fix all errors...
[13:46] <bryan_> are you still asmadive
[13:46] <tyreza> so you mean ext.3 /dev/sda1 -y dr_willis
[13:46] <Dr_Willis_> tyreza:  soomthing like that i think. been a while
[13:46] <Dr_Willis_> fsck -y /dev/sdXX
[13:46] <Dr_Willis_> !fsck
[13:46] <szal> bryan_: http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/System/Search.aspx?TcmUri=tcm:13-822896&SearchType=3
[13:47] <tyreza> so no need to tell the filesystem ? dr_willis
[13:47] <Dr_Willis_> I think it can tell if its ext2/3/4
[13:47] <Dr_Willis_> unless its really really messed up
[13:48] <tyreza> i prefer this way fsck.ext3 /dev/sda1 -y what do you think about ? dr_willis
[13:48] <dimas_> Dr_Willis_ what application can read id3?
[13:48] <dimas_> perhaps

[13:51] <bryan_> where is that written ?
[13:51] <dr_willis> tyreza,  you could stop it.. and start it over.
[13:51] <bryan_> i just finish the download now
[13:51] <bryan_> im intel
[13:51] <tyreza> how to stop that ?
[13:51] <__s> since updating LTS yesterday, my function keys aren't registering in any program.  but I can still see them in xev

[13:54] <szal> iow, 32bit
[13:54] <bryan_> wa does it mean
[13:55] <Osmodivs> bryan_: It means you are 32 bits
[13:55] <bryan_> ok can i use this driver then
[13:56] <Osmodivs> bryan_: And that's nice you have the drivers web page because I cant upload those damn drivers, perhaps a torrent is sucking all my internet?
[13:56] <nothingspecial> dimas_: a cli program to read id3?
[13:56] <szal> bryan_: the download I gave you the link to has pkgs for both 32bit and 64bit
[13:56] <Andy80> anyone of you knows where Dropbox settings are saved? I cannot make indicator icon to appear :\ (I've installed Natty but the /home is the same I used on Maverick). If I try it with another user it works fine so it must be something in my user home. I've deleted both .dropbox and .dropbox-dist, run dropbox start -i ecc..... still same problem.
[13:56] <bampersand> hey guys, i was hoping you could recommend me some software, basically i'm wanting to compare images and know the % similarity, ideally being able to pass images through the command line too.

[13:56] <FloodBot1> bampersand: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:56] <bryan_> so i need to open the download file  and run
[13:57] <Dr_Willis_> or sudo gdebi foo.deb or sudo dpkg -i foo.deb
[13:57] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Just double click the .deb file
[13:57] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Like in Windows
[13:57] <bryan_> ok i try
[13:59] <bampersand> any ideas? i really don't have any idea as to similar applications and for a project i really need it.
[13:59] <bryan_> there are so many sufolders in this thing
[13:59] <Osmodivs> bryan_: There is a printer and a scanner package, I think, install thos, reboot, and print
[13:59] <bryan_> but which file is it m8
[13:59] <Osmodivs> bryan_: look for the .deb file
[14:00] <bryan_> thx i try now
[14:01] <aLeSD> ok
[14:01] <aLeSD> I have a strange question : I have a video and I want to make a video with viceversa . Is it possible ?
[14:01] <amit> any1 has any idea wy avahi-daemon is using two ports in my computer
[14:01] <Dr_Willis_> aLeSD:  huh?
[14:02] <aLeSD> Dr_Willis_: opposite way
[14:02] <amit> and nmbd?? i dont use samba
[14:02] <Dr_Willis_> aLeSD:  you mean you want to play it in reverse?
[14:02] <DrManhattan> so im using a livecd of the alpha or beta of whatever the next version is, and its WAY better than your release version as far as performance goes
[14:02] <aLeSD> Dr_Willis_, yes
[14:02] <DrManhattan> like night and day
[14:02] <amit> can it be a backdoor hacking?
[14:02] <aLeSD> Dr_Willis_, and record it
[14:02] <bazhang> DrManhattan, #ubuntu+1 for that
[14:02] <DrManhattan> to be honest I think i'd have stayed with Ubuntu if the release version of unity worked this well
[14:02] <DrManhattan> ok thanks bazhang
[14:02] <amit> what are they doing using udp
[14:02] <Dr_Willis_> aLeSD:  i imagine ffmpeg,or mencoder can reendode it in reverse.. the things can do everything else...
[14:02] <dimas_> nothingspecial i need a program who could read the names of the songs of my cd
[14:02] <amit> any idea any1
[14:03] <bryan__> osmodev
[14:03] <Osmodivs> Ok, now if you excuse me, I'll leave.
[14:03] <Osmodivs> bryan_: I asume you are talking to me...
[14:03] <nothingspecial> dimas_: oh, lots and lots of them, have you tried sound-juicer
[14:03] <DrManhattan> bazhang, but just dropping that in here too, so you guys know, the live media works WAY better between the versions
[14:03] <Osmodivs> Yes?
[14:03] <bryan__> really  iahavent seen such package before there so many subfolder but no deb file
[14:03] <bryan__>  sorry mate
[14:03] <paolo> ciao
[14:03] <dimas_> nothingspecial yes but dont work
[14:04] <bazhang> !it | paolo
[14:04] <DrManhattan> bazhang, thanks for the clue on the channel
[14:04] <oCean> Almtesh: you manged to build e2fsck yet?
[14:04] <amit> any1???
[14:04] <dimas_> nothingspecial i thought that was the best
[14:04] <bazhang> dimas_, simply read the names?
[14:04] <amit> nmbd and avahi-daemon???
[14:04] <anon> it could be amit remember the nsakey
[14:04] <Almtesh> oCean, no.
[14:04] <Almtesh> Not yet.
[14:04] <nothingspecial> dimas_: maybe the cd is not yet in the database, you could try something that uses a different one.
[14:04] <amit> anon: what??
[14:04] <dimas_> bazhang doesnt read anything
[14:04] <bazhang> anon, thats nonsense. please dont repeat
[14:05] <bazhang> amit ignore that
[14:05] <oCean> Almtesh: you downloaded the source from repository? apt-get source e2fsprogs ?
[14:05] <Almtesh> But, I'm taking a look on the system itself.
[14:05] <bryan__> cant use the terminal to install the driver
[14:05] <kaellan> Is it posible to use sd cards as cash memory for ubuntu ?
[14:05] <klingan> Hello! I'm quite new to Linux/Ubuntu and still have a problem I can't figure out. I use a Samsung SCX-4500 Multifunction Printer connected as a network printer on a NAS/Excito B3 1TB. Once I had Windows installed on my computer, I could use the printing and scanning functions properly. But now (using Ubuntu 11.04), I can only use the printing functions. No application (XSANE for instance) is able to find any image viewers. Any ideas? Th
[14:05] <klingan> anks
[14:05] <klingan>  I have located and installed a Unified Linux Drivers Package. It could, however, not find any printer on my network over samba (SMB://), so I had to add the IP manually. This added another printer (besides my earlier, autoadded printer) among my available printers. I am able to print through this printer (therefor using the printer pack), but I am not able to scan. I have read a few forum threads, mentioning that scanning should be pos
[14:05] <klingan> sible with the drivers. Any ideas? Thanks.
[14:05] <FloodBot1> klingan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:05] <Almtesh> The matter probably does not come from the e2fsprogs tools.
[14:05] <dimas_> nothingspecial indeed as is custom by me
[14:05] <Dr_Willis_> kaellan:  you could put a swap file or parittion on them. but thats about it.,
[14:05] <amit> bazhang: any idea??
[14:05] <oCean> Almtesh: once you run configure and make, you can create a e2fsck.static from that subdirectory
[14:06] <amit> anyways; any1 knows of a decent youtube downloader in ubuntu
[14:06] <amit> I am fed up with clipgrab and grab-your-videos
[14:06] <Almtesh> klingan, be careful, you are becoming a flooder.
[14:06] <amit> they dont work properly
[14:06] <bazhang> amit, firefox video download helper
[14:06] <appu> hi
[14:06] <ikonia> amit: there are firefox plugins for it
[14:06] <Dr_Willis_> amit:  ive seen FF extensions that work fine for me.
[14:06] <amit> bazhang: I use chrome..
[14:06] <nothingspecial> dimas_: Then afaik you'll have to write the tags yourself. Soundjuicer reads a database online
[14:06] <mintux> I set up mount.ecryptfs on my home directory. is there any way to remove this ?
[14:06] <DrManhattan> I stand corrected
[14:06] <kaellan> Dr_Willis_: ok ty
[14:06] <bryan__> heelo osmodivs
[14:06] <Dr_Willis_> got some aps on my amazon phone. :)
[14:06] <DrManhattan> xchat crashed XD
[14:07] <lumos> gnome is installed, but broken because I `rm -rf /`ed and stopped immediately after, but after deleting important gnome files or whatever.  My system still works.  How can I reinstall everything and pull in all dependencies?
[14:07] <bazhang> amit, then mention that in your question
[14:07] <amit> I use chrome.. frefox is too biggy
[14:07] <klingan> Almtech, why is that? It was several hours since I asked the same question. :p
[14:07] <Dr_Willis_> check chromne plugins then
[14:07] <amit> ok bazhang
[14:07] <DrManhattan> I gotta test out some other stuff
[14:07] <Almtesh> oCean, I must do something else before seeing again that cross-compiling.
[14:07] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Hey
[14:07] <bryan__> yes#
[14:07] <appu> www.sag-3.blogspot.com
[14:07] <oCean> Almtesh: that's fine
[14:08] <Almtesh> oCean, the Dårlig ulv is stuffing me.
[14:08] <dimas_> nothingspecial is already written that is why i wonder why the program have to look for the info online if is in the mp3 already
[14:08] <Almtesh> (not sure of the expression.
[14:08] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Still hav't found the .deb packages?
[14:08] <oCean> Almtesh: say what?
[14:09] <bryan__> no
[14:09] <oCean> appu: no spamming
[14:09] <tyreza> i got kernel parnic dr_willis after an fsck
[14:09] <appu> k
[14:09] <amit> any1 know of decent youtube downloadr for google chrome
[14:09] <szal> bryan__: what's so hard there? -> unpack the .tar you downloaded, unpack cnijfilter-mp250series-3.40-1-deb.tar.gz, go to subdirectory packages/ & install the 2 files ending in 'i386.deb'
[14:10] <aeon-ltd> amit: search chrome extensions, your question doesn't really suit this chan
[14:10] <Ignacio> I need to capture the screen, there a program for that
[14:11] <szal> Ignacio: still capture or motion capture?
[14:11] <Osmodivs> Ignacio: Press the key on top of the INSERT key
[14:11] <nothingspecial> dimas_: id3 tags aren't on music cds, I don't think. You'll ahve to put your cd in the database
[14:12] <szal> lol..  can't have been important then ;)
[14:12] <amit> aeon-ltd: I was asking abt download manager for ubuntu..
[14:12] <amit> like idm, orbit downloader..
[14:12] <amit> it sucks there isnt a decent one here
[14:13] <Dr_Willis_> i rarely need download managers these days.
[14:13] <szal> amit: define 'decent'
[14:13] <amit> szal:  decent means which works
[14:13] <Osmodivs> Dr_Willis_: You are kidding: wget does not work that good
[14:13] <amit> I used clipgrab.. it downloded and showed finished for 6 videos and all of them were 0 bytes
[14:13] <appu> what is ubuntu means
[14:14] <Dr_Willis_> Osmodivs:  I use wget to get files sometimes .. works fine for me..
[14:14] <dimas_> wow...why souch of simple thing is so difficult....is just the names of the songs....why the application dont the read that?...shiii
[14:14] <szal> amit: youtube-dl ftw
[14:14] <Dr_Willis_> dimas_:  the name of the sonbgs are not built into the cd. thats why theres a database
[14:14] <Osmodivs> Download Them All FTW!!
[14:14] <bryan__> sad but no deb file
[14:15] <szal> bryan__: you gotta be kidding..
[14:15] <bryan__> really no deb file
[14:15] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Yep, are you kdding?
[14:15] <Osmodivs> Must be a corrupt file
[14:15] <klj613> hi, i've got a virtual machine which hosting LAMP. i got port forwarding for the host OS to the guest OS for port 8080. now i want to setup ftp which ftp server should i use? i would need access to /var/www/
[14:15] <nothingspecial> dimas_: If the tags are in the mp3s, then the music player (banshee, rhythmbox, whatever will read them). Music cds don't come with tags. sound-juicers purpose is to find those tags online. That's what it does.
[14:15] <amit> szal: any gui
[14:15] <bryan__> send me the file ..can you
[14:16] <dimas_> nothingspecial thanks for the info, i really appretiate it
[14:16] <szal> bryan__: http://www.abload.de/img/20110708_krusaderkuzw.png
[14:16] <dimas_> Dr_Willis_ thank you
[14:16] <nothingspecial> dimas_:
[14:16] <nothingspecial> #:)
[14:17] <Dr_Willis_> last music cd i bought came with mp3 files on it also. :)
[14:17] <bryan__> ok i try
[14:17] <nothingspecial> Dr_Willis_: Nowadays I buy vinyl with digital download codes included.
[14:17] <Hyperbyte> I have a command in a script, and I pipe the output to the "mail" command, so I receive a mail when it finishes.  Sometimes there's empty mails though, because the first command didn't output anything.  Is there anyway to prevent this?
[14:18] <Osmodivs> bryan_:  http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9041618/cnijfilter-common_3.40-1_i386.deb
[14:18] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Just double click it
[14:18] <Hyperbyte> Command would be "script.sh | mail root@localhost".  How can I prevent empty e-mails?
[14:18] <szal> Osmodivs: how about the other .deb?
[14:19] <dimas_> nothingspecial i used to use fruity loop studio in windows and can wait to start with ardour
[14:19] <bazhang> dimas_, why would you need ardour
[14:19] <dzone_> how to burn lubuntu oneiric on my usb flash drive I tried with LinuxLive USB creator but it can't do it
[14:19] <bazhang> dimas_, thats not for getting mp3 tags
[14:19] <dimas_> bazhang diffeent topic
[14:20] <dimas_> i know
[14:20] <isleshocky77> Not sure what room to ask this in, but when using ./configure; if you have a lot of options - is there a way of feeding a text file full of those line options into configure?  ./configure --prefix="/opt/blah" becomes ./configure < con_options with con_options being a files with the options?
[14:20] <bazhang> dzone_, oneiric support in #ubuntu+1
[14:20] <dzone_> bazhang ok thanks
[14:20] <ikonia> isleshocky77: config.status
[14:21] <bryan__> sorry i quit  thx for the help
[14:21] <Osmodivs> bryan_: You gotta be kidding
[14:21] <nothingspecial> Hyperbyte: Make it always output something. If this then do that; elif echo "nothing to be done"; else do the other thing. If you see what I mean.
[14:21]  * szal shakes head in disbelief
[14:21] <coz_> hey guys.. i forgot the command to open the search dialog under Places..anyone remember?..yes?
[14:21] <Osmodivs> bryan_:  Just double click the file I send you!
[14:21] <dimas_> by the way for all who have knowladge in audio in ubuntu 11.04 dont have all the alsa modules so suggest to add alsa repositories

[14:22] <Osmodivs> Go to that link
[14:22] <bryan__> send me the specific file plz
[14:22]  * sipior goes for popcorn
[14:22] <isleshocky77> ikonia: Does that only work if I inputted all the options on to the cli in the first place?
[14:22] <szal> bryan__: that _IS_ the specific file (or, rather, 1 of 2)
[14:22] <Osmodivs> bryan_: Double click the file and it will automatically Ubuntu will install it
[14:23] <Sidewinder1> coz_, How 'bout: /usr/bin/gnome-search-tool
[14:23] <Osmodivs> there a re 2 files, one for scanner one for printing, I'll send you the other one
[14:23] <bryan__> there no deb under the 100 subdir!
[14:23] <frxstrem> is it possible in /etc/fstab to only mount a hard drive if it is present, and otherwise just ignore it?
[14:23] <coz_> Sidewinder1, let me try that
[14:24] <Sidewinder1> coz_, At least that's what it is in mine. 10.04...
[14:24] <bryan__> anyway i will have to go now thx guys for your help
[14:24] <coz_> Sidewinder1, yep thats it thanks
[14:24] <Sidewinder1> NP
[14:24] <theseum> I'm having a problem with Unity.  Probably 50% of the time, a few seconds after I log in, the top bar will turn light grey and all the icons will become ugly.  Also, the terminal windows get white backgrounds, instead of semi transparent.  I think all the icons change (for example in firefox) and possibly other UI elements, I'm not totally sure, but the whole systems becomes sort of ugly.  This is fixed by a reboot, unless it happens again.
[14:24] <Osmodivs> szal: Can you check the link I send to bryan_  Please? perhaps the link is broken or corrupt?
[14:24] <Hyperbyte> nothingspecial, thanks.  Should've read the fine manual anyways, because on the manpage of "mail" it says with -E it silently ignores empty mail bodies.  Apparently the option was especially added for scripting.  *doh*
[14:24] <Osmodivs> szal: Never mind, he quit
[14:25] <Osmodivs> And I am gonna quit now too,
[14:25] <Osmodivs> I have things to do
[14:25] <Osmodivs> like...
[14:25] <Osmodivs> ...
[14:25] <Osmodivs> Good bye
[14:25] <szal> can't be important then :P

[14:27] <corn_> how do you use ufw to allow access from <IP_ADDRESS>/24 to port 22
[14:28] <corn_> ufw allow from <IP_ADDRESS>/24 to any port 22   doesnt work  from   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW   says   ERROR: 'Bad destination address'

[14:33] <Etz_> When ubuntu new version will be out
[14:33] <corn_> is there a support channel?
[14:33] <minimec> theseum: So I am sorry, but I have no other idea...
[14:33] <corn_> is there a support channel?
[14:34] <oCean> corn_:  I think it is in this form:  ufw allow ssh from <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[14:34] <corn_> wow so the documentation is wrong
[14:34] <corn_> ill try it
[14:34] <theseum> yeah i have no idea where to even begin trying to figure this one out

[14:49] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  can you be more vague.. err.. i mean detailed..

[14:49] <klj613> how to i allow root acces via vsftpd? or give my ubuntu login permissions to /var/www/
[14:50] <madprops> dr_willis, i tried ask ubuntu but nobody knows
[14:50] <Dr_Willis_> klj613:  i see that asked alot. :) one good way is to use 'groups' but thats all i rember..
[14:50] <AleXstX> test1
[14:50] <Dr_Willis_> madprops:  no one else has reported a problem then. so far.
[14:50] <AleXstX> pen?
[14:50] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: I have a laptop with VGA and HDMI. I couldn't use HDMI so I'm using VGA instead but all the letters on the screen are waving.
[14:50] <AleXstX> test1
[14:50] <szal> !test | AleXstX
[14:51] <klj613> Dr_Willis_: thanks, maybe i can actually find it with google now :P
[14:51] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  i plug mine into hdmi, and then use the monitors tool. or nvidia-0settings tool. or the laptops fn-keys to enable the external; monitors

[14:51] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[14:52] <Tetracomm> The Nottinghill DVD won't play in Ubuntu, I don't know if a codec is missing?
[14:52] <TL1> Hey
[14:52] <szal> !dvd | Tetracomm
[14:52] <Dr_Willis_> dvd's only have one codec as far as i know.. could be some weird copy protection if other dvds work
[14:53] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: can't use it.
[14:53] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: It's not working
[14:53] <creatorbri> I'm a PHP developer with a fresh LAMP installation on Ubuntu Server. I'm trying to decide on the best place to store common PHP libraries and frameworks -- that is, libraries written in PHP for inclusion in PHP applications. I'd like to get y'alls opinion :)
[14:53] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:   be more exacting in what you tell us.. what is not working?
[14:53] <oCean> creatorbri: maybe try #httpd channel
[14:54] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: my monitor is not working with HDMI cable.
[14:54] <oCean> creatorbri: or ##php
[14:54] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  and  i mentioned the monitor tool. or the fn keys.... tried those ? ive also seen bios settings. abd cases were the monitor had to be plugged in when pc booted..
[14:54] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  also what video chipset are you using?
[14:55] <creatorbri> oCean: probably true, just wanted the input of some experienced Ubuntu'ers :) after all, CentOS is still more common for LAMP devs, but CentOS'rs tend to put crap wherever in my experience :P
[14:55] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: It would be great is there's any way that I can use my monior with VGA. I can use it but all of letters on screen are moving around.
[14:55] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: ATI Radeon
[14:55] <oCean> creatorbri: well yes, but this channel is really not for opinions/discussions/polls etc.
[14:57] <creatorbri> oCean: I still consider it a support question, because I don't know where to put them -- its just that there might not *necessarily* be one single correct answer. Perspective, I guess.
[14:57] <slipkid08> Anyone know anything about Conky?
[14:57] <minimec> leejongwook: What driver do you use for that card. radeon (opensource) or catalyst?
[14:57] <slipkid08> I am on #Conky but nobody is answering
[14:57] <szal> slipkid08: define 'anything'
[14:57] <minimec> leejongwook: ... and what card do you have?
[14:57] <leejongwook> minimec: Default one maybe ?
[14:58] <leejongwook> minimec: ATI radeon.
[14:58] <oCean> creatorbri: I agree. As long you're not asking for " y'alls opinion" I'm fine with the actual support question :)
[14:58] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  you did install the fglrx drivers? or does the radeon support that?
[14:58] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: I didn't
[14:58] <slipkid08> Anything....I can't get past the default black and white interface and it's covering my icons lol
[14:58] <minimec> leejongwook: open a console and type... lspci | grep VGA
[14:58] <leejongwook> minimec: OK
[14:58] <slipkid08> Szal: Anything....I can't get past the default black and white interface and it's covering my icons lol
[14:58] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  that would be step1 then. run  'jockey-gtk' and see if it wants the ati drivers
[14:58] <Baribal> Hi. I "want to" install a PHP-capable webserver (actually, I just want to use rock_mongo and not care about the webserver, but that doesn't seem to be an option), so... I just apt-get install apache2 php5 and am done?
[14:59] <leejongwook> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[14:59] <leejongwook> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M93 [Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series]
[14:59] <leejongwook>
[14:59] <creatorbri> oCean: Then I'd ask y'alls "help" in figuring out the "best" location to place these libs ;)
[14:59] <oCean> !best > creatorbri
[14:59] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  that thing has an Intel and an ATI video card?
[14:59] <creatorbri> oy
[14:59] <slipkid08> Okay, anyone, anyone?
[14:59] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: Only one. Video card. This is a laptop.
[15:00] <slipkid08> Bueller, Bueller, anyone?
[15:00] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  there are laptops now with 2 video cards...
[15:00] <Dr_Willis_> leejongwook:  how old is that laptop?
[15:00] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: But this is not expensive one.
[15:00] <Dedalus>  http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/135_splash/index.html
[15:00] <creatorbri> oCean: seriously, it was a genuine question -- neither #httpd nor ##php have any worthwhile answers either
[15:00] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: 6 month.
[15:00] <oCean> Baribal: if you want the complete lamp-stack, sudo tasksel install lamp-server can du that for you
[15:00] <minimec> leejongwook: As I see, you should have the option to install the catalyst driver. That might help with your VGA problem. As stated by Dr_Willis_, run jockey-gtk in a console. It will look for 'additional drivers' on for your system.
[15:01] <oCean> Dedalus: how is that an ubuntu issue?
[15:01] <leejongwook> minimec: Thanks :)
[15:01] <leejongwook> Dr_Willis_: Thanks
[15:01] <Baribal> Thanks, oCean, both for that and for the maybe-unintentional shell pun. :D
[15:01] <creatorbri> Is there an "open discussion" ubuntu channel where I can get some more specific advice?
[15:01] <Pici> creatorbri: #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:02] <creatorbri> thanks Pici
[15:02] <Dedalus> oCean: http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/135_splash/index.html
[15:02] <leejongwook> No proprientary drivers are in use <---
[15:02] <leejongwook> Thanks all :)
[15:02] <Dr_Willis_> Dedalus:  You could at least paste the url to the stream. not the flash site. :)
[15:02] <oCean> Dedalus: stop that now
[15:03] <gdoteof> I am about to embark on a usb install of 11.04 on a lenovo g450.  i was doing it before; trying to create the usb from windows and failing to get the thing to boot.  kept saying operating system not found
[15:04] <usr13> gdoteof: Are you doing it from MS Windows or from a Linux machine?
[15:04] <gdoteof> i am doing it now from a linux machine
[15:04] <gdoteof> i was failing from a windows machine
[15:05] <gdoteof> shutting down the ms laptop hopefully for the last time
[15:06] <gdoteof> same thing
[15:06] <gdoteof> boots immediately to 'missing operating system'
[15:06] <gdoteof> broadcom undi px3-2.1 v11.0.11
[15:06] <gdoteof> i used unetbootin to make the usb
[15:06] <Pici> !enter | gdoteof
[15:06] <Dr_Willis_> gdoteof:  sounds like it may not be trying to boot the usb.  or it cant boot from usb
[15:07] <gdoteof> downloaded just now from ubuntu.com  the 32 bit 11.04;  --sorry pici
[15:07] <gdoteof> Dr_Willis_:  i specifically chose 'sandisk cruzer' from the boot menu..
[15:08] <leejongwook> minimec: Dr_Willis_: http://pastebin.com/1L8HJbCJ >_< error
[15:08] <Dr_Willis_> gdoteof:  could be unetbootin did somthing wrong.
[15:08] <Dr_Willis_> gdoteof:  you could try some of the other tools at pendrivelinux
[15:08] <klj613> i've created a user group, added all my users (3) into it. set the Owner of /var/www/ to the group name with 'Folder Access: Create and delete files' permissions and i still cant create a folder via ftp? (logged in as a user)
[15:08] <gdoteof> Dr_Willis_: i think it must be a laptop specific thing.  i have tried numerous tools
[15:09] <minimec> leejongwook: Looks that it did not download the driver... You were able to activate the driver and then Ubuntu asked you to reboot?
[15:10] <leejongwook> minimec: No, just received that message but no reboot asked.
[15:10] <leejongwook> minimec: Rebooting ?
[15:11] <minimec> leejongwook: Ok. So you cannot activate the driver?
[15:11] <gdoteof> so annoying; i have this laptop but no admin password flash the bios
[15:11] <leejongwook> minimec: Yes. It says not yet
[15:12] <dak1n1> hey guys. Does anyone know if there's an ubuntu equivalent to system-config-display, which would help me write an xorg.conf?
[15:12] <Tetracomm> Thank you, I installed it.
[15:12] <leejongwook> Sorry, installation of this driver failed.
[15:13] <leejongwook> Please have a look ... log file.
[15:13] <ron__> hi, i'm on howaboutwe.com but i;ve a problem on my netbook. when i try do register or search (international user) i can't see the bottom of the page. what to do?
[15:13] <usr13> gdoteof: Do you have another PC you can test the bootable flash drive on?
[15:14] <minimec> leejongwook: Looks like 'installation went well'... see that bug... The poster of post two is an ubuntu developper. So you should be save to reboot... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/705986
[15:14] <leejongwook> minimec: Dr_Willis_Thanks again :) I'll keep using this version without my external monitor.
[15:14] <leejongwook> versino of Ubuntu.
[15:15] <ron__> i can't use my netbook mic on ubuntu/ what can i do?
[15:15] <leejongwook> Bye
[15:15] <minimec> leejongwook: Again... looks like installation is ok...
[15:15] <leejongwook> minimec: I see :)
[15:15] <gdoteof> usr13: i do; I just tested.  drive is fine
[15:16] <ron__> the chat lines always delay here. what to do?
[15:16] <gdoteof> super annoying; i need to flash the bios to get usb to boot
[15:16] <gdoteof> and i can't / don't know how to crack/reset the windows pw without booting to usb
[15:16] <edbian> gdoteof: If you flash the bios and mess up you brick the motherboard.
[15:16] <usr13> gdoteof: Is it XP or...?
[15:17] <edbian> gdoteof: You can boot a liveCd instead?
[15:17] <leejongwook> minimec: I can use my laptop minitor without having problem but any external monitors with VGA. It shaking and hurting my eyes.
[15:17] <leejongwook> Laptop is kinda small :P
[15:17] <Delrayne> during install, can ubuntu's partitioner resize existing partitions?
[15:17] <Dr_Willis_> ron__:  if you are saying the dialog box is off the bottom of the screen. you can alt-click anywhere in the window and drag the window upwards
[15:17] <gdoteof> edbian: good call.. i am going to try that.  usr13: it's win7 home
[15:17] <minimec> leejongwook: With that catalyst driver too? Check the new installed ATI configuration tool.
[15:18] <leejongwook> minimec: OK :)
[15:18] <gdoteof> edbian: fine if it bricks.  under lenovo warranty running lenovo software update so whatevs
[15:18] <edbian> gdoteof: There ya go.  If you brick it DON'T tell them about linux
[15:18] <leejongwook> minimec: Thanks :) you saved me and saved Ubuntu :P
[15:18] <minimec> leejongwook: No problem.
[15:19] <gil-galad> hello
[15:19] <leejongwook> Bye ~ Hope I could catch you later :)
[15:19] <Delrayne> during install, can ubuntu's partitioner resize existing partitions?
[15:20] <edbian> Delrayne: yes
[15:20] <gil-galad> i'm trying to install the 2.6.39 kernel in natty but the kernel-ppa seems empty, is there another ppa ?
[15:20] <Firefishe> Delrayne: Yes, but it's recommended, especially if it's a windows partition, to completely defrag the drive.
[15:20] <Delrayne> also heard that 20GB is more than enough for ubuntu and anything over that is basically a waste..is that accurate?
[15:20] <Delrayne> defrag the drive? please explain. Cause its a vista partition
[15:21] <klj613> folder permissions ignoring the group permissions? -.-
[15:21] <G0R> Delrayne: 20GB should be fine for root partition
[15:21] <edbian> Delrayne: Well the actual OS would be fine in 10Gb.  20 would never get filled.  But that doesnt' count your personal files like music and videos and stuff
[15:22] <Delrayne> my plan is to give ubuntu 20gigs vista 100gigs and the rest free space for both to use.
[15:22] <minimec> gil-galad: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[15:23] <gil-galad> minimec, isn't that the same ppa when i  use "add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa"
[15:23] <gil-galad> ?
[15:23] <Delrayne> as far as defrag the the C: drive just use the disk defragmenter that comes with windows?
[15:24] <Dr_Willis_> ive filled 20gb / due to lots of /tmp/ ussage :)
[15:24] <edbian> Delrayne: For both OS to use the same partition you should probably use ntfs
[15:25] <venol> Hello, How I can accelerate update rrd file on mailgraph? I have change $rrdstep=60 to $rrdstep=10 in /usr/sbin/mailgraph, but it is not affect..
[15:25] <minimec> gil-galad: I don't know, but I see some .39 kernel for natty in there. In fact you can just download the kernel deb package for your system i386/amd64.
[15:25] <Delrayne> ntfs is the way windows saves files, no? and as for as choosing how to use it is beyond me.
[15:25] <usr13> gdoteof: I would hack out the password and update the bios if I were you.  I've updated bios in a number of PCs, never had a problem.
[15:25] <Dr_Willis_> venol:  been asking that for 2 days now and still cant seem, to complete the last sentance.. :)
[15:26] <gil-galad> minimec, thank you dude, i'll try this..
[15:26] <gdoteof> boots like a champ from dvd
[15:26] <gdoteof> usr13: yeah i should be able to do that now i can boot ubuntu
[15:26] <edbian> Delrayne: That is windows FS yes
[15:26] <fuliu10_ty> hello, can anyone help me with how to make the dual graphic card switchable ?
[15:26] <usr13> gdoteof: Is it Windows XP?
[15:27] <Dr_Willis_> fuliu10_ty:  you have to use the bumblebee tool i belive. saw it mentioned at the webupd8 and omgubuntu blog sites
[15:27] <Delrayne> edbian: I assume there is an option in install to choose ntfs?
[15:27] <gdoteof> usr13: win7
[15:27] <venol> Dr_Willis_: Yes sir, I can't solve this problem, very long to wait mailgraph updating rrd files.. I need a help. thanks
[15:27] <edbian> Delrayne: Yes.  You should to custom / manual partitioning when you get there.
[15:27] <edbian> Delrayne: And to de-fragment.  In windows you right click the hdd and choose properties -> tools -> defragment
[15:27] <edbian> They might have moved it but that's where it was in windows xp
[15:28] <fuliu10_ty> Dr_Willis_: thanks, let me search that
[15:28] <Delrayne> edbian: thank you for all your help. I hope I don't screw it up!
[15:28] <edbian> Delrayne: Be careful!  Ask a million questions!
[15:29] <Delrayne> well, once I start the install, I won't really be able to get access to this IRC....could install a client on another comp if things come up..
[15:29] <gdoteof> not a huge fan of this new interface on 11.04 so far
[15:29] <Dr_Willis_> venol:  where did you even get that change 60 to 10 in ... info from?
[15:29] <usr13> gdoteof: Well, I see this:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pr_WRBeq4Mk
[15:30] <fuliu10_ty> Dr_Willis_: but my video card is ati, so still I need to use the so called bumblebee?
[15:30] <edbian> Delrayne: There is a client on the ubuntu liveCD I think
[15:30] <edbian> Delrayne: You can use the whole OS while it is installing
[15:30] <snimavat> How do i generate .pem file for a user ?
[15:31] <sjrp> Anyone swedish that can help me with an easy java programming question?
[15:31] <szal> !sv
[15:31] <snimavat> Not a swedish, but know java
[15:32] <venol> Dr_Willis_:That's just my opinion. I read on mailgraph documentattion if mailgraph use rrdstep to update rrd file, and default is 300 Second. So, I just change it on /usr/sbin/mailgraph. But it's not works.. Maybe somebody knows this issue! thanks
[15:32] <oCean> sjrp: ##java would be a more appropriate channel for java programming questions
[15:32] <Delrayne> edbian: sweet didn't know that. So just use the live version for install, and throught I can be on here for any questions that arise?
[15:32] <snimavat> Can any one help me with generating a .pem file
[15:32] <Dr_Willis_> fuliu10_ty:  no idea. i dont own such a laptop. the optmius nvidia/intel stuff uses it from what ive read.
[15:32] <fuliu10_ty> Dr_Willis_: thank you the same
[15:32] <edbian> Delrayne: Yes.  I'm not 100% sure that an IRC client is on there but you can install one.  (or put one in firefox using an addon)
[15:32] <Dr_Willis_> venol:  you mean  you are editing the file /usr/sbin/mailgraph ?
[15:33] <Delrayne> edbian: feeling more confident about this already. Thank you.
[15:33] <edbian> Delrayne: sure
[15:33] <fuliu10_ty> but does anyone know how to solve the dual graphic card(ati) problem?
[15:33] <venol> Dr_Willis_:Yes, and then I restart mailgraph.

[15:36] <free99> hello everyone, I'm running xubuntu 11.04 on my HP 2710p tablet pc. Since having left version 10.04, I've had a problem in 10.10 and now 11.04 that won't go away. Every time I first boot my machine, my tablet works fine, the mouse follows the pen. But when I suspend and then resume, the wacom device is still listed in xinput --list, but it stops working
[15:36] <Padge> Has anybody brought up the launch bar for discussion?
[15:37] <Padge> I'm wondering if anyone has considered, for design, the ability to launch additional instances of a program from the icon on the launch bar,
[15:37] <Padge> or where to find related discussion
[15:38] <free99> would there be a better irc room to talk about xinput issues pertaining to ubuntu?
[15:38] <edbian> ubuntu brainstrom maybe

[15:46] <Pici> !zh | mujun
[15:46] <klj613> usr13: i've looked in that file 6 times now i think, nothing stood out to me for what i need
[15:46] <venol> mujun: why you ask?
[15:46] <usr13> klj613: You mean you want to ftp in as root?
[15:47] <klj613> well that is the fallback solution. i would prefer the group permissions to actually work -.-
[15:47] <mujun> i just want to know how many people are from my homeland.
[15:48] <chenua_zhang> axisys：http://frozenfox.freehostia.com/cappy/
[15:48] <free99> dang man, nobody in xorg is helping me out :-/
[15:49] <usr13> klj613: I would think you could just change the umask for local users in the config file.  Right?
[15:49] <aksyahba> free99: anytime man..
[15:49] <usr13> local_umask=022 is probably what it is set at now.  Right?
[15:50] <klj613> usr13: yes, why doesn't it use the file permissions on the actual folder though? what should i set the umask to, 777?
[15:50] <gdoteof> balls this chntpw is not working
[15:50] <chenua_zhang> mujun：I am in shanghai now
[15:51] <admgy22> where else would the file be besides /etc/nginx/nginx.conf, or, after I comment out the redirect line, what else could I be doing wrong other than just restarting nginx?
[15:52] <usr13> klj613: I would assume it does.  So if you change to 777... hummm...
[15:52] <JayWalker_> Hey guys. I got myself a 2TB drive for backing up my various ubuntu machines. What would be the best way to do this for easiest restoration? Should I just copy images of each machines drive? or use a utility like Back in Time?

[15:56] <free99> anyone mind giving me an assist with a tablet input problem? from what I can tell/suspect, it might have something to do with inputhotplug...

[16:16] <skulbuny> its with Empathy and it's IRC support
[16:16] <Abhijit> skulbuny, ask
[16:16] <skulbuny> it doesn't support the "/msg" command I need to register my nick. Fix?
[16:16] <Abhijit> skulbuny, use xchat or irssi
[16:17] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?
[16:17] <skulbuny> Okay, will do, I'll be back in a bit to confirm. Is xchat in the repositories? sudo apt-get install xchat?
[16:17] <Abhijit> skulbuny, right
[16:17] <dr_willis> it dosent work unless you reg. your nick you mean?
[16:17] <roasted> So I'm having an audacity problem in Ubuntu. When I try to open it says Audacity could not find a place to store temporary files. Please enter an appropriate directory in the preferences dialog. The default setting is /tmp/audacity-c. This folder has 777 perms and I can't write to it. Any ideas?
[16:17] <skulbuny> yes, that is correct @dr_willis
[16:18] <dr_willis> skulbuny:  there are settings on thus server to block msgs from unregged people i think
[16:18] <dr_willis> +E i recall
[16:18] <Abhijit> dr_willis, he said the commad /msg is not working
[16:19] <dr_willis> Abhijit:  unless he reg. his nick..
[16:19] <Abhijit> but he need to 1st use /msg command to register?
[16:20] <skulbuny> I've registered my nick with an online IRC client, but I can't figure out to login with that nick.
[16:20] <feydr> if I have a full-screen window and open a new window -- that window opens up behind the full-screen one instead of in front -- anyone know how to fix that?
[16:20] <dr_willis> he said. so  it sounds like it is working

[16:20] <Abhijit> skulbuny, have you confirmed email/
[16:20] <skulbuny> yes
[16:21] <skulbuny> how do I login?
[16:21] <Abhijit> skulbuny, then do /msg nicksern identify <password> do this in server tab only. not in any channel tab
[16:21] <Abhijit> skulbuny, ands no space before /msg
[16:21] <th0r> antivirtel: that is a simple html setup....you can do it with any html editor, or even a plain text editor if so inclined
[16:21] <Abhijit> nickserv*
[16:21] <Dr_Willis_> skulbuny:  you register with the freenode services. thenb you just use the nick here and identify to nickserv on connectioin

[16:22] <magicalchamp> why does not ubuntu still a password for root?
[16:22] <Dr_Willis_> roasted:  your / hasent gotten mounted read only due to filesystem errors has it? check mount output
[16:23] <Dr_Willis_> magicalchamp:  security is best done in layers.. it adds a layer of security
[16:23] <roasted> dr_willis, I don't see anything there
[16:23] <magicalchamp> yeah, but ubuntu does not has a password for root anymore, right?
[16:23] <oCean> magicalchamp: with sudo, you don't need the root account
[16:23] <magicalchamp> I remember in older versions it did.. but now it doesn't?
[16:23] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?
[16:23] <oCean> magicalchamp: err.. the root pw
[16:23] <magicalchamp> okay thanks bro
[16:24] <Dr_Willis_> magicalchamp:  direct logging in as root is disabled. due to  the account being set with no password. thus you cant login to it directly
[16:24] <minimec> magicalchamp: That is true. If you start in recovery mode you have fuul root access to the system whithout root password.
[16:24] <Sidewinder1> !sudo > magicalchamp
[16:24] <Dr_Willis_> magicalchamp:  i dont ever rember any version setting a root password
[16:24] <magicalchamp> okay , so you don't even need a password root?
[16:24] <oCean> !root | magicalchamp
[16:24] <Dr_Willis_> magicalchamp:  you use your initial user as the admin.
[16:25] <Dr_Willis_> initial user has full sudo rights.
[16:25] <minimec> magicalchamp: You options are: recovery mode whithout password, sudo, or sudo -i for a root console.
[16:27] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?
[16:28] <skulbuny> Okay, registered my nick. All is good.
[16:28] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?
[16:30] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?
[16:31] <skulbuny> Could someone redirect me to a web design irc channel, if it exists?
[16:33] <jwash> hey, i'm using avant window manager, where do i put a .awn file i donwloaded so that avant recognizes it as an extension?
[16:34] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more what could be wrong?

[16:40] <djskidd> Are you on Unity or GNOME?
[16:40] <coolguy> hi guys
[16:40] <extraclassic> aspek_: you're better off editing the tags in a seperate program
[16:40] <c4pt> is there a way i can force alien to build an .i386 rpm
[16:40] <coolguy> i have installed java on ubuntu
[16:40] <aspek_> Thanks, I am using Kubuntu, do I need to pull a lot Gnome libraries to get it working.
[16:40] <coolguy> how do i find path for JAVA_HOME
[16:40] <c4pt> does anyone know how i can force alien to generate an i386 deb on amd64?
[16:40] <c4pt> or can i send someone two files to run alien on?
[16:41] <roasted> So I Can see the problem. When I log off a user, my audacity folder in /tmp stays there. Shouldn't it be removed automatically? If I rm -rf it, when the other user logs in its fine.
[16:41] <Dr_Willis_> c4pt:  alien just converts the packagte to a deb. it dosewnt compile it.. so thats not going to work.

[16:54] <zolgar> IS there something up with Ubuntu One? I went to create a new account but the "captcha" isn't loading.

[16:54] <collguy> guys command to download java on ubuntu
[16:55] <joshp1> I used firefox when I signed up but Chromium would also work
[16:55] <extraclassic> anarchy_: try installing nvidia-current and nvidia-settings
[16:55] <ikonia> collguy: open the package manager, search for java and select the version you want
[16:55] <anarchy_>  just look for that in the synaptics package manager?
[16:56] <genii-around> c4pt: I'm on a 64bit Kubuntu install
[16:56] <extraclassic> anarchy_: type "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings" in terminal

[16:57] <ikonia> DJJeff|Laptop: intel is well supported
[16:58] <extraclassic> anarchy_: after it installs type "sudo nvidia-xconfig" and reboot...if you want effects you need compiz settings manager
[16:58] <DJJeff|Laptop> hrmmmm I find just running vlc media player videos and youtube videos anything in full screen and it laaags alot
[16:58] <DJJeff|Laptop> it didnt do that with windows xp on here

[16:58] <Dr_Willis_> vlc runs very well for me on very low end systems (netbooks)
[16:58] <DJJeff|Laptop> I am dual booting this laptop
[16:58] <absolute_zero> QUESTION: is there a permanent solution to the "No Init found" problem (specifically for 10.04) ?
[16:59] <ikonia> jairavax: don't do it
[16:59] <Dr_Willis_> jairavax:  im not sure hfs+ has write support
[16:59] <jairavax> We're currently in it, trying to backup data to an external HD, but we don't have write permissions.
[16:59] <ikonia> jairavax: don't do it
[16:59] <joshp1> absolute_zero what program r u trying to use
[16:59] <ikonia> absolute_zero: yes, make sure the boot loader is configured to use and see the right drive, where init is located
[16:59] <anarchy_> extraclassic: I got 'command not found' for nvidia-xconfig
[16:59] <ikonia> joshp1: that is a boot problem
[17:01] <anarchy_> extraclassic: should I just try to reboot it? or another command?
[17:02] <zolgar> How do I access the Ubuntu One music center?
[17:03] <frodo_ax> Hi, I need some help with my Ubuntu installation
[17:03] <joshp1> frodo_ax what's ur problem
[17:03] <frodo_ax> specifically regarding the wifi card... can somebody help?
[17:03] <ikonia> frodo_ax: if you explain your issue, we can try to help
[17:03] <frodo_ax> thanks
[17:03] <frodo_ax> I have a CompaQ Presario with Ubuntu
[17:03] <frodo_ax> Natty
[17:04] <frodo_ax> the wireless connections are visible
[17:04] <frodo_ax> in the connection manager
[17:04] <joshp1> frodo_ax are you having problem connecting to ur wireless card
[17:04] <ikonia> frodo_ax: open a terminal and type "sudo iwconfig" do you see a device listed as having wireless extensions
[17:04] <frodo_ax> yes
[17:04] <guitar_dave> hello ikonia
[17:05] <frodo_ax> shoes no wireless extensions
[17:05] <ikonia> guitar_dave: hello
[17:05] <ikonia> frodo_ax: ok - so your card is not seen by the OS at this time as a wireless card
[17:05] <frodo_ax> @ikonia yes you are right
[17:06] <frodo_ax> @ikonia I followed certain how to a week back and it worked temporarily
[17:06] <ikonia> do you have the URL for the howto you used ?
[17:06] <absolute_zero> @ikonia details of the init problem are @ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1751541
[17:07] <joshp1> frodo_ax what's ur wireless card
[17:07] <ikonia> absolute_zero: I don't need a forum post, if you want help explain the problem
[17:07] <frodo_ax> @joshpl its a BCM4311
[17:07] <absolute_zero> @ikonia well its basically that i can't (not now) access Ubuntu when booting up
[17:07] <guitar_dave> how do I make a shortcut on the desktop?
[17:07] <joshp1> frodo_ax that's broadcom right
[17:08] <frodo_ax> @joshpl, yes
[17:08] <dr_willis> frodo_ax,  theres no need to do a @ befor every name
[17:08] <DJJeff|Laptop> is there an easy way to see if my gfx driver is up to date?
[17:08] <absolute_zero> @ikonia the last time this happened (a few days ago), sudo fsck/dev/sdaX solved it
[17:09] <ikonia> absolute_zero: ok - so the problem is the init program cannot be seen by grub, there are 3 possabilities, 1.) grub is looking at the wrong disk 2.) grub is looking at the right disk and it has a problem (raid disk not assembled for example) 3.) you have deleted init from that drive or it has been corrupted
[17:09] <ikonia> absolute_zero: you need to work out which one of those 3 situations has happened to you, then a resolution plan can be made
[17:09] <joshp1> frodo_ax I found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[17:09] <ikonia> DJJeff|Laptop: they are - if you're using ubuntu and there is a later version of a package, it will offer it to you
[17:10] <ikonia> guitar_dave: right click - then make shortcut
[17:10] <dr_willis> absolute_zero,  you could start with fscking the filesystem again from a live cd..  i have to wonder why your fs keeps getting messed up however..
[17:10] <dr_willis> absolute_zero,  it may be a sign of hard drive hardware issues.
[17:10] <frodo_ax> Joshp1, thanks, but the page you provided refers to BCM4318
[17:11] <frodo_ax> Is it ok to use those instructions?
[17:11] <absolute_zero> @ikonia i did the fsck from a usb Knoppix; what exactly should I do to figure which one of the 3 is it ?
[17:11] <joshp1> Oh sorry I found the link on a page with your card it may work research first
[17:11] <ikonia> absolute_zero: how many disks are in your machine ?
[17:11] <subin> hi

[17:13] <subin> its not spam
[17:13] <subin> define spam
[17:13] <ikonia> absolute_zero: how many partitions on that disk ?
[17:13] <ikonia> subin: posting links that are nothing to do with ubuntu support
[17:13] <guitar_dave> ikonia, i just tried to right click a webpage and did not see that option
[17:13] <dr_willis> subin,  is it ubuntu support related? if so.. why did you not mention the actual problem....
[17:13] <subin> ok
[17:13] <ikonia> guitar_dave: you click on the desktop then create a shortcut, it asks you where, you put in the details then
[17:13] <subin> i'll never do it again
[17:13] <absolute_zero> @ikonia 8
[17:14] <ikonia> subin: thanks
[17:14] <ikonia> absolute_zero: 8......ugh, that's going to be tedious to debug
[17:14] <ikonia> one moment
[17:14] <bollullera> hello!
[17:14] <jkoudys> Ubuntu 11 - how can I tell dash (the finder thing) to exclude certain files/directories from the file finder? There's a bunch of files I'd prefer everyone not see image previews on whenever you type jpg.....
[17:14] <guitar_dave> ok...thanks
[17:15] <dr_willis> jkoudys,  i think the webupd8 blog site or omgubuntu blog site. had a posting on how to 'hide' things like that.

[17:16] <dr_willis> !upgrade | subin
[17:16] <joshp1> subin if you have nlts then you need the disk if your not it should do it automaticly or sudo apt-get upgrade
[17:16] <mgolisch> Cerrdor: install the guest drivers of your virtualisation product
[17:17] <joshp1> no nlts lts
[17:17] <mgolisch> Cerrdor: that should fix the graphics
[17:17] <DarK^NiGhT> where can i get help for atheme ?

[17:17] <Cerrdor> mgolisch like my host graphics card?
[17:18] <dr_willis> Cerrdor,  what vm are you using?
[17:18] <Cerrdor> virtualbox
[17:18] <mgolisch> Cerrdor: install their guest aditions then
[17:18] <dr_willis> Cerrdor,  then install the virtualbox-guest addations.. it should fix most issues..
[17:18] <dr_willis> and checkl the vbox docs. :) they are well done.
[17:18] <guitar_dave> j/ #beginners
[17:18] <dr_willis> theres lots of neat things in vbox that are easially overlooked
[17:18] <Cerrdor> ok let me look into that

[17:22] <NardDeDaff> Hello all. It's shallow and not important at all but I wonder why the "beans" image is not displayed for me in the Forums...

[17:25] <noriX> Hi, I would like to try the awesome WM, but after i execute "unity -- replace && awesome &" unity starts immediately
[17:25] <dr_willis> noriX,  you dont do it that way
[17:25] <dr_willis> unity --replace restarts unity..
[17:26] <snyder_> I'm trying to install a usb cd rom and running into problems... Xubuntu is still very new to me...any help?
[17:26] <jkoudys> dr_willis, found the article: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/things-to-tweak-fix-after-installing.html.
[17:26] <dr_willis> im not sure of a good way to stop unity and start a differnt one.
[17:26] <dr_willis> noriX,  you could make a custome .xinitrc or .xsession and use tghe 'custome' gdm session entry.
[17:27] <dr_willis> jkoudys,  i have that bookamrked on my delicious.com/dr_willis site.
[17:28] <dr_willis> noriX,  awesome would replace 'compiz' or metacity also.. (the window manager), not unity (the panel lauincher)
[17:29]  * dr_willis wonders if theres a 'awesome --replace'
[17:29] <snyder_> I'm trying to install a usb cd rom and running into problems... Xubuntu is still very new to me...any help?
[17:30] <dr_willis> snyder_,  clarify the problem.. You are plugging in a usb-cdrom drive to a xubuntu install?
[17:31] <snyder_> I plugged it in and the content of the insstallation disk came up, but when I try to execute, both app mgr and wine don't run it
[17:31] <itilious> why would I not have any grub screen shown while booting up? my plymouth boot screen also has terrible resolution,,, anyone help me out on where to start diagnosing this issue?
[17:31] <dr_willis> snyder_,  let me guess.. says it needs to be executable?
[17:32] <snyder_> i have a mini pc with xubunto 10.4 as its only os
[17:32] <Blutterbob> dr_willis: Problem here is that this is a virtual machine.. I tried upgrading to 10.something before and that failed because it wasn't supported yet.. I only need to install git, for the moment.. Is htere a place where I could find a still active repo ?
[17:32] <dr_willis> itilious,  grub is using an improper res with  the monitor. its changeable in the /etc/default/grub file
[17:32] <dr_willis> Blutterbob,  that !EOL guide tells yiou how to change your repo listing i belive
[17:32] <snyder_> wine says "errors encountered while performing the operation Look at the information window for more details"
[17:33] <dr_willis> snyder_,  you are running it from a terminal via  'wine /patth/to/the/executable.exe'  ?
[17:33] <dr_willis> snyder_,  what are you instgalling exactly anyway?
[17:33] <snyder_> uhhmmm...no... I am brand new to linnux....
[17:34] <Pierreb_> Hi im trying to resize my / partition with gparted livecd but i can't add the unallocated space to / it only allow me to decrease the size. how do i solve this?
[17:34] <snyder_> i  bought a usb cdrom drive to go with the mini pc
[17:34] <itilious> dr_willis, simply ucomment Grub_GFXMODE ? sorry for such an obvious question just wanna make sure :)
[17:34] <dr_willis> snyder_,  and you are instgalling software from a disk thats in the drive?
[17:35] <dr_willis> itilious,  heres mine. --> pastebinit /etc/default/grub
[17:35] <dr_willis> http://paste.ubuntu.com/640258/
[17:35] <snyder_> it came with a disk that has nero burning rom ultra edtion v6.0.6
[17:35] <szal> lol
[17:35] <dr_willis> snyder_,  lets start over..... what software are you installing.. ?
[17:35] <Blutterbob> dr_willis: Already found a PPA that had git.. thanks!
[17:36] <itilious> dr_willis, what does the "noquiet nosplash" do for ya?
[17:36] <dr_willis> snyder_,  you are trying to use nero in linux? there is a native linux port of nero.. but ive heard its not very good. theres otehr linux apps that do burning tasks quiet well.
[17:36] <bampersand> hey guys, i'm wanting to have one main hosts file, and then any machine connected to my router will have the same host file, how can i do this?
[17:36] <dr_willis> itilious,  kills that *(#*#*#  pymouth. so i get a nice simple text boot screen
[17:36] <itilious> dr_willis, simply a blank screen during boot for a quicker boot?
[17:36] <dr_willis> itilious,  im old-skool :)
[17:36] <snyder_> I'm trying to install windows7 ultimate once I get the cdrom installed...
[17:36] <dr_willis> it disables plymouth.
[17:37] <snyder_> (via disk)
[17:37] <itilious> i see, well i'm going to try it out, thanks for the help,,,, and so am i so thats what I'll use,,, looks clean imho :)
[17:37] <itilious> brb
[17:37] <dr_willis> snyder_,  your use of the phrase 'cdrom installed' is .. odd.. if you plugged it in.. and can access data on the disks in it.. then.. well.. the 'disk' is instgalled and working...
[17:37] <dr_willis> the optical drive seems to be functioning in its proper way. :)
[17:38] <armour> Hi all, Anyone tried the TP-LINK  TL-WN722N wifi usb  network card on Ubuntu any version?
[17:38] <szal> dr_willis: and when he's done he'll come back whining because he can't start *buntu any more ;)
[17:38] <snyder_> right, but I tried other disks as well, cd, dvd, software... and the only disk that appears in file system is the install disk...
[17:39] <snyder_> ( that came with the drive)
[17:39] <snyder_> I figured i'd have to install the cdrom's software before it was usable
[17:39] <itilious> dr_willis, worked like charm, thanks again buddy :)
[17:39] <itilious> nice being able to actually choose one of the OS'
[17:40] <itilious> :p
[17:40] <zcorn> hello have a question i installed xubuntu. and install went ok and know it does not detect the cd drive?
[17:41] <dr_willis> snyder_,  you are insatlling the software from the cdrom.. in order to use the cdrom? :) sort of a catch-22 there...
[17:41] <dr_willis> snyder_,  the places menu item should show any disks you put in.. for dvd VIDEO you will need to insatall extra packages..
[17:43] <snyder_> thank you
[17:44] <Cerrdor> so I installed the guest addon but my graphics only go up to 800x600
[17:44] <Cerrdor> how do I go higher?
[17:45] <usr13> Cerrdor: Look at output of xrandr for available options.
[17:45] <usr13> (I don't know what "guest addon" is so may not understand your question properly.
[17:45] <Cerrdor> doesnt give me any options
[17:46] <Cerrdor> says max is 800x600
[17:46] <Cerrdor> but I know I can have better
[17:46] <faz_> in a bash script, i wanna have if ( the exit code of some command is 0 ) { do_this } else { do_that }
[17:46] <faz_> how can i do that?
[17:46] <usr13> Cerrdor: What is your display adapter?  And what monitor do you have?
[17:47] <usr13> Cerrdor: It all depends on the driver software for the display adapter coupled with the capabilities of the monitor.
[17:48] <mahir256> zcorn: did you mount /dev/cdrom?
[17:48] <Cerrdor> Graphics adapter is ATI Radion HD
[17:48] <Cerrdor> radeon
[17:48] <Cerrdor> LCD plasma monitor
[17:48] <usr13> Cerrdor: If the output of  xrandr  is only 800x600, then that is all you will get with the present configuration.
[17:48] <Pici> Cerrdor: Are you running Ubuntu inside of a virtual machine?
[17:49] <Cerrdor> Pici yes
[17:49] <Pici> faz_: #bash would be a better place to ask that question.
[17:49] <Pici> Cerrdor: Then you should tell usr13 that.
[17:50] <Cerrdor> usr13 running Ubuntu in a VMachine with the guest addons installed and have radeon HD card with LCD plasma monitor
[17:51] <usr13> VMachine is not in my field of expertiese, but I'm sure there are others here that can help.
[17:52] <usr13> Pici: (Sorry to disappoint.)
[17:53] <chocolates> is there a proxifer for ubuntu?

[17:59] <filo1234> Cerrdor: close your guest machine an vbox and type this command VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/MaxGuestResolution any
[17:59] <usr13> bruderbell: Probably so.  Pose your question(s) and see.
[17:59] <bruderbell> Excellent.  So I know that i can create a file with shell commands and then execute it with ./filenamehere
[18:00] <filo1234> Cerrdor: or /join in #vbox don't seem an ubuntu issue and it's a bit OT here
[18:00] <mahir256> bruderbell: yes. i just add . to the end of my path so i don't have to use the pesky slash
[18:00] <usr13> bruderbell:  vim filenamehere  ; chmod +x filenamehere
[18:00] <Cerrdor> Im actually in both
[18:00] <bruderbell> but now I'm trying to do a simple loop.  So I'm trying to increment the filenames by a simple number so that in the shell it runs commands like "ls 1" "ls 2"
[18:00] <Cerrdor> funny how Ubuntu says its a vbox issue they say its a Ubuntu issue
[18:01] <Cerrdor> do you guys work at Microsoft too?
[18:01] <Cerrdor> :P

[18:01] <Telendore> mm
[18:01] <oCean> bruderbell: #bash is a specific scripting channel.
[18:02] <ikonia> ellipses2: put it in your PATH
[18:02] <bruderbell> I'll try the #bash channel

[18:19] <Pici> XOXO1_: Ubuntu 5.04 is not supported, and hasn't been supported for a number of years now.

[18:20] <nesoi> TrevInc, using "Language Support" to install japanese keyboard, fonts, etc.
[18:20] <XOXO1_> is there any way to share out a folder on a lan with 5.04? I want to get some old files from my ancient pc
[18:20] <NardDeDaff> Hello folks. Is Ext4 the default filesystem choice when auto-installing 11.04 ? I'm always doing the partitionning myself so I've never checked. Thanks.
[18:22] <stemount> XOXO1_: why not create a share on a new PC and connect to it with the 5.04 machine?
[18:22] <h00k> NardDeDaff: yes, I believe it is
[18:22] <xelister> what is the name of that icon with network settings in gnome?
[18:22] <h00k> xelister: nm-applet
[18:22] <TrevInc> XOXO1_: set up an FTP share on the 5.04 machine and grab your files that way
[18:22] <NardDeDaff> h00k: Ok, thanks :)
[18:23] <h00k> XOXO1_: or use SSH/SCP :)

[18:31] <Delrayne> Hey, I ran wubi.exe and then booted to linux via CD however while the liveCD was loading I saw a purple screen with a rectange symbol = person symbol down at the bottom, then the screen when black. I waited probably three minutes before turning off my computer and never got anything but the black screen...any ideas?
[18:31] <DMKitsch> winux , joshp1 I installed ubuntu and then installed vista as i wiped my vista partition and unkowningly wiped my MBR and so i have lost my GRUB. I only can use the alternate ISO so is it still possible to reinstall it without having to reinstall linux
[18:32] <Loobe> Hi was wondering if someone could give me a hand
[18:32] <winux> oww do ya have grub on startup?
[18:32] <pat__> @winux: I think it's this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/upstart/+bug/672177 but I'm still stuck even after installing the updates
[18:32] <usertwo> i formatted my usb to ext4 without errors but now it doesnt mount. any ideas?
[18:32] <Loobe> Currently im dual booting Ubuntu 10.4 LTS with WIndows XP Home, but im going to upgrade XP to windows 7, how do i format the XP partition and install windows 7 without breaking my grub loader ?
[18:32] <ahammond> Loobe: only if you ask a technical question... :)
[18:32] <pat__> @ubottu: yeah, I think that's the one
[18:33] <xelister> what is the default password for "login keyring" in gnome? how to reset it (possibly deleting passwds sotre there, I dont care)?
[18:33] <joshp1> DMKisch try sudo apt-get install grub
[18:33] <Loobe> If i justy format XP partition and install windows 7 as normal onto that partition, it will go over the MBR and stop grub loader right ? which in effect will stop me loading linux :s
[18:33] <nos> hey so i just installed ubuntu netty but seems like unity's not wroking .. how can i enable it !?!?
[18:34] <winux> @DMKisch which os is active now on startup? linux or win?
[18:34] <DMKitsch> winux, windows Vista
[18:34] <DMKitsch> winux vista boots on bootup
[18:34] <Loobe> Or does re installing windows not touch Ubuntu's Grub Loader ? and i have nothing to worry about ?
[18:35] <winux> @DMKitsch damn.. its baad.. if it is linux it would easy to install grub..
[18:35] <ShawnRisk> I am using a Brother-HL-5250DN printer in Ubuntu 11.04 but when I try to print something I get two errors:  may not be connected and com.apple.print.recoverable  How do I fix these?

[18:38] <xangua> !repeat | Delrayne

[18:38] <joshp1> ShawnRisk I messed your problem what was it?

[18:40] <ShawnRisk> anyone else have ideas?
[18:40] <nos_> _oscar oh that one .. lol i dont have any graphic card installed so i guess i dont need one ?!?! or ..
[18:40] <w30> nos_, after you choose your login user a choice of Unity or classic button should appear at the bottom of your login screen, not before choosing a user.
[18:41] <oscar> oh nos_ you don't have any graphics card
[18:41] <nos_> nope !
[18:41] <oscar> seems like natty developers didn't take care of that case
[18:42] <nos_> so ... what are my options ?
[18:42] <gdoteof> finally got this ubuntu install.  lenovo g450 2949  no wireless
[18:42] <amit> how can I seaarch in nautilus by file size
[18:42] <Pici> nos_: You can use unity2d if you do not have accelerated graphics. It is not installed by default though.
[18:43] <oscar> i suggest you gettin any nvidia card, believe me it's more helpful don't have a graphics card than having an ati card
[18:43] <oscar> or you can try keeping gnome configuration
[18:44] <gdoteof> there is a fix people say about bcmpl-kernel-source  but it is already installed
[18:44] <nos_> well i kinda like to use unity .. so i m gonaa give a try to unity2D.. so whats the apt commnd ?
[18:44] <DMKitsch> bbl
[18:44] <gdoteof> any ideas on how to get the wireless working?  it doesn'te ven show up in the networking menu.  with the live cd it showed (firmware missing) next to disabled
[18:44] <amit> I have been using find .\ 1 g
[18:44] <amit> its too clumsy...
[18:45] <amit> any gui way in nautilus to search by file size??
[18:45] <amit> just as in windows we search a topright size:>200 mb like that
[18:45] <ShawnRisk> semes questions get asked in here lots but no answers
[18:45] <Pici> !patience
[18:45] <nos_> how do i install gstreamers once in for all ... ? like the whole package with one command ?

[18:53] <joshp1> tobi584 I think I found the forum I used http://askubuntu.com/questions/37505/11-04-on-macbook-pro-7-1
[18:53] <shazzner> dmesg is reporting eCryptfs headers are not found

[18:54] <ShawnRisk> winux: which one do I download as I am using Brother HL-5250DN BR-Script3
[18:55] <fromwintolinux> @ShawnRisk
[18:55] <fromwintolinux> do you have gmail or msn
[18:55] <fromwintolinux> ?
[18:55] <winux> i am winux
[18:55] <tobi584> joshp1, thank you. Ill start this up in linux and see how it all fares. Thanks for all the help!
[18:56] <cbell> I wish wine didnt such
[18:56] <cbell> suck
[18:56] <joshp1> tobi584 let me know
[18:56] <ShawnRisk> winux: yes I do
[18:56] <tobi584> will do
[18:57] <aphistic> hey, i just did an upgrade from 9.04 -> 9.10 -> 10.04 LTS and I'm having a problem with update-manager-core in dpkg, every time i try to install an updated version i get "dpkg: ../../src/archives.c:763: tarobject: Assertion `r == stab.st_size' failed." and then it aborts
[18:57] <winux> @ShawnRisk whatever.. wait i m gonna find the right driver for your printer
[18:58] <aphistic> i've tried apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, i've tried manually installing a package i downloaded from the packages site and it all fails the same way.
[18:58] <ShawnRisk> winux: thanks
[18:58] <winux> @ShawnRisk http://brother-hl-5250dn-br-script-1-0-printer-driver.downloadaces.com/download/
[18:58] <winux> Shawn : this is script 1.0
[18:58] <winux> it may works
[18:59] <zamba> i need a file sharing protocol that works fine over the internet for streaming
[18:59] <oscar> @aphistic it's hard to back up your information and try a clean installation?
[18:59] <zamba> and i need to be able to mount it
[18:59] <zamba> kind of like sshfs, but without the overhead
[18:59] <winux> ohh sorry this is exe
[18:59] <ShawnRisk> winux: yes but it says 3 so I am more than lucky using 3 now.
[18:59] <winux> lol
[18:59] <zamba> samba would be nice, but you have to forward so many ports for it to work
[18:59] <aphistic> oscar: it's hours of work to restore it but it's available as a last resort
[18:59] <winux> oki doki sec..
[18:59] <zamba> nfs uses random ports through the port mapper, so that's not usable either
[19:00] <aphistic> i was hoping it was a known package problem because i didn't seem to have a problem installing a new dpkg package
[19:00] <winux> your printer is CUPS or LPR?
[19:01] <Nainodecam> woah
[19:01] <Nainodecam> 1512 ppl online
[19:01] <winux> @Shawn :  there are two options for drivers you need to tell me which one is your printer model?
[19:01] <ShawnRisk> winux: how do I check which one?
[19:02] <Nainodecam> wwooowwww
[19:02] <Pici> Nainodecam: Do you have a support question?
[19:02] <Nainodecam> no
[19:02] <Nainodecam> im just surpirsed
[19:02] <Nainodecam> i never seen a channel with so much ppl
[19:02] <sudokill> Nainodecam, ubuntu is #1 in freenode
[19:02] <sudokill> i think
[19:02] <Pici> Nainodecam: Then please keep in mind that this channel is only for Ubuntu support. Random chatter belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic  (and yes, we are the largest channel on freenode)
[19:03] <Nainodecam> can i just stay here?
[19:03] <sudokill> nothing wrong with that
[19:03] <winux> @ ok i m checkin
[19:03] <winux> wait pls

[19:08] <usertwo> when i connect my usb it doesnt appear in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab. can i force mount?
[19:09] <dr_willis> usertwo,  it wont show up in those.. unless you add a line.. or mount it via the mount commmand or filemanager
[19:09] <dr_willis> usertwo,  use the mount command to mount it where you want.
[19:10] <dr_willis> !mount
[19:10] <raven_> 10.04 does not mount encrypted home any more - what could be wrong?
[19:10] <dr_willis> there are some usb indicator-applets that can make using usb drives a little nicer also.
[19:10] <simpsy> raven_: encryption is not working
[19:11] <raven_> simpsy, how to find out and how to solve?
[19:11] <dr_willis> try mounting it by hand?
[19:11] <simpsy> raven_: ask for help to someone
[19:11] <raven_> dr_willis, how
[19:11] <dr_willis> no idea.. i know better then to encrypt my home...
[19:11] <dr_willis> !encrypt
[19:11] <dr_willis> old out of date factoid it seems..
[19:12] <Nainodecam> why do you type <nickname>: <message> ?
[19:12] <Pici> !who | Nainodecam
[19:12] <BluesKaj> dr_willis, does (k)ubuntu provide a url to download with wget ?
[19:12] <dr_willis> BluesKaj,  you mean a url to get the iso file?
[19:12] <BluesKaj> yes
[19:13] <BluesKaj> I can't seem to find one , dr_willis
[19:13] <Nainodecam> ubottu , you need to have a space after the name so it blinks to their client
[19:13] <ShawnRisk> winux: none of them worked out for me.  The quality of the packages weren't good
[19:14] <dr_willis> BluesKaj,  download page has some urls like -->  http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/11.04/kubuntu-11.04-alternate-i386.iso
[19:14] <dr_willis> figure out the right name. :)
[19:14] <Pici> Nainodecam: no you don't.  also, this sort of meta-discussion belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic (which, I assure you is actually not a dead channel).
[19:16] <dr_willis> BluesKaj,  perhaps  http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/11.04/kubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
[19:16] <dr_willis> works -------->      wget  http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/11.04/kubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso

[19:18] <shane2peru> is there a way to output diff to an html file?  so that I can look at the differences in two texts?
[19:18] <shane2peru> in a clean format?
[19:18] <dr_willis> shane2peru,   sounds like the kind of thing a perls script proberly exists for...
[19:19] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  or use 'colordiff'
[19:19] <dr_willis> !info colordiff
[19:19] <ssureshot> how does "sed" process \(\)   I can't seem to match a patern to replace when brackets are in there
[19:19] <shane2peru> dr_willis: colordiff!  That sounds like what I'm looking for, thanks!!!
[19:19] <usertwo> dr_willis: i can format my usb, copy files, and open them but when i safely remove and then reinsert the usb, the usb fails to mount or if it does, the files do not appear (but the usb shows the correct amount od disk space used). do i need to repair the usb (if possible) or is it a mount problem?
[19:19] <shane2peru> dr_willis: I kept looking for diff2html, but it no longer seems to exist.
[19:19] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  theres a log colorizer. and colormake and a few other color-tools as well. i think theres some grep colorizer also
[19:19] <julie101010> what could cause my microphone to produce no sound even though the input volume is at the max?
[19:20] <akashm1990> Can you recomment a free, easy to use, VM with a small download size to run XP in Ubuntu?
[19:20] <dr_willis> usertwo,   could be gnome is just confused.. you an always try a proper mount command via the command line
[19:20] <dr_willis> akashm1990,  virtualbox is the popular one these days
[19:21] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: any ideas on my problem?
[19:22] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,  i dont even know what your problem is/was.
[19:22] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: I am using a Brother-HL-5250DN printer in Ubuntu 11.04 but when I try to print something I get two errors:  may not be connected and com.apple.print.recoverable  How do I fix these?
[19:22] <shane2peru> dr_willis: thanks!
[19:22] <dr_willis> that looks like 1 error.. :)
[19:22] <dr_willis> oh i see the and now.. :)
[19:22] <dr_willis> how did you add the printer?
[19:23] <tobi632> back
[19:23] <raven_> manual mount enrypted home: "fopen: no such file or directory"
[19:23] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: the normal way, nothing special, just with the GUI
[19:24] <jansporter_> --
[19:24] <tobi632> joshp1 left i take it ?
[19:24] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,  for my brother. i use the cups web interface.. and it shows up as 5 'printers' because theres 5 services its using (or can use to be accessed) i recall having to down the list once.. the 2nd one worked best for me.
[19:24] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,  check http://localhost:631
[19:24] <trism> ssureshot: \(\) start and end a group in sed, which allow you to refer to the match later as \1 \2 etc in the substitution, if you want to actually match (), don't escape them
[19:24] <w30> I just installed colordiff but by the time I need it I won't remember it. Does any body have a source for instructions errata for all these nfty commands; like a web page?
[19:24] <Klau3> Hi, I can install updates in Oneiric alpha 2 (Unity2D) without entering a password at all – is this a bug or feature? Video: http://ubuntuone.com/p/13JD/
[19:25] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: checking
[19:25] <salmiak> do anyone know of a linux program to save the subtitle that is in a mkv file?
[19:25] <Pici> Klau3: best to ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:25] <jansporter_> ...
[19:25] <Klau3> k
[19:25] <raven_> manual mount enrypted home: "fopen: no such file or directory"
[19:25] <dr_willis> salmiak,  i belive ffmpeg, and/or mencoder has those features
[19:25] <shane2peru> w30: You have to make your own, based on what you like and use.  Tomboy, or some other note app is great for that.
[19:25] <dr_willis> w30,  tomboy notes is handy.. sync it to ubuntu one. :)
[19:25] <rcmaehl> What are zombie processes?
[19:26] <dr_willis> rcmaehl,  ones that are dead but cant be killed.. :) bnecause they are zombies...
[19:26] <dr_willis> they want to eat your brains also...
[19:26] <genii-around> rcmaehl: undead applications
[19:26] <salmiak> dr_willis: isn't those some complicated command line programs?
[19:26] <w30> shane2peru, I go through /usr/bin and play around when I have free time *sigh*
[19:26] <dr_willis> i recall yaving to reboot  to clear them out.
[19:26] <dr_willis> saliak,  they are well documented with 10000's of examples  command line programs...
[19:27] <dr_willis> and i do belive the faq's for them  mention subtitles...
[19:27] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: where I am looking in there?
[19:27] <raven_> manual mount enrypted home: "fopen: no such file or directory"
[19:27] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,  mine shows up as 5 'check box's i can use.
[19:27] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: in which area?
[19:27] <rcmaehl> so I can't kill them
[19:27] <saliak> dr_willis - what question were you answering?
[19:28] <rcmaehl> dr_willis: genii-around how can I get rid of them
[19:28] <jansporter_> how to record webradio
[19:29] <ssureshot> trism: ah,, there we go I was escaping the match as that's how I've done it in the past with the period and ip address's... so I find that odd
[19:29] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,  when i add a printer, this one i have (a brother networked laser printer) has 5 differnt 'check box's' as for which printer to use. they are in fact differnt 'methods' of accessing the same printer. samba, lpr,  ipp: and other ways.. could be you need to select the right one for yours to work
[19:29] <ssureshot> but hey it worked right lol
[19:29] <oCean> jansporter_: use streamripper
[19:30] <quittix3> Im trying to play the linux version of the game dwarf fortress, and I cant get it to start. Does anyone here play dwarf fortress on linux or could help me?
[19:30] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: okay
[19:30] <dr_willis> ShawnRisk,   ipp - seems to work well for me.   Internet Printing Protocol (ipp)
[19:31] <w30> ShawnRisk, they exist because of the different servers on your networked printer, some printers have'em all.
[19:31] <quittix3> I downloaded the linux version of the game nd started up the game file and it does nothing. Other people play it and its suposed to work.. I dont know what im doing wrong
[19:31] <w30> ShawnRisk, check your printer documentation
[19:31] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: okay I will try that
[19:32] <ShawnRisk> w30: thanks
[19:32] <shazzner> quittix3: can you launch it from the commandline it usually gives you an error message if it doesn't launch
[19:32] <jansporter_> thank you
[19:32] <dr_willis> !screenshot
[19:32] <quittix3> when ever i start it with the terminal it instantly disapears
[19:33] <usertwo> dr_willis: i tried sudo mount /dev/sdb but that didnt work. should be mount /media/k64gb (the name of the usb)?
[19:33] <ShawnRisk> dr_willis: I got this to work out thanks
[19:33] <sveinse> Hi. I'm trying to view a movie with vlc on my Dell laptop. However, video is stuttering when the laptop is running on batteries. How can I make sure there is enough CPU available for playing the video?
[19:33] <dr_willis>  !mount | usertwo
[19:33] <dr_willis> wrong on both counts usertwo
[19:33] <dr_willis> usertwo,    sudo mkdir /media/THEDISK
[19:34] <dr_willis> usertwo,  sudo mount /dev/sdb1  (or some other #)     /media/THEDISK
[19:34] <usertwo> dr_willis: perhaps thats why it hasnt been working! thanks!
[19:34] <dr_willis> I cant find in the Gimp how to capture a screen shot any miore.. :)
[19:34] <dr_willis> usertwo,  yep. :) you got to get the options right.
[19:35] <dr_willis> dident gimp use to have a FIle --> aquire --> screenshot, or scanner,   or other ways.. menu item?
[19:36] <saliak> I'm trying to send email from a command line script.  is sendmail the right thing to use?
[19:37] <shazzner> quittix3: the terminal disappears?
[19:37] <shazzner> quittix3: as in it crashes?
[19:38] <nattty> hello i've got a question concerning themes
[19:38] <dr_willis> ask away nattty  see who can help.
[19:38] <nattty> I'd like to change my appearance since my windows, dialog buttons, and indicator icons suddenly look gray, boxy, and ugly
[19:39] <ShawnRisk> I am out
[19:39] <ShawnRisk> talk to everyone later
[19:39] <nattty> but if I change the theme in "appearance," none of those things change
[19:39] <nattty> only the color of the titlebar changes
[19:39] <oCean> saliak: if sending is all you need (not receiving) then you can use package nullmailer
[19:39] <quittix3> I guess so
[19:39] <dr_willis> ive heard of some bug nattty  that causes the themes to go grey. but ive never experienced it.
[19:39] <nattty> what could be wrong?
[19:39] <red__> I am wanting to make a bootable file from a .iso disk is this possible?
[19:39] <Sovek> Does anyone here have experience on running Hamachi under Ubuntu?
[19:40] <nattty> dr_willis, it's not just that it's gone gray, it looks like windows 95, and the icons are all wrong too
[19:40] <Sovek> I'm a noob with little command line experience
[19:40] <saliak> oCean - awesome. yeah, just need to send
[19:40] <quittix3> I just click run the program in terminal and it just appears for a split sceond then goes away
[19:40] <dr_willis> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/574296
[19:40] <dr_willis> nattty,  it reverted back to the default 'theme'
[19:40] <nikhgupta> hey guys, I am getting this error from my application: Could not start syslog server core thread. Do you have permissions to listen on port 514?
[19:41] <oCean> saliak: in that case use nullmailer (I use it too) Install it, set your mailhost in /etc/nullmailer/remotes and you're good to go
[19:41] <nikhgupta> how can I grant my user permission to listen on port 514?
[19:41] <red__> I am wanting to make a bootable file from a .iso disk is this possible?
[19:41] <dr_willis> nattty,  try alt-f2 and run -->   gnome-settings-daemon
[19:41] <saliak> oCean - yeah, sendmail is pretty daunting to configure
[19:41] <nattty> dr_willis, I just tried, it quit with the error: cannot find name. hmmm
[19:42] <dr_willis> nattty,  is your system using an i7 chip? or a ssd ?
[19:42] <nattty> no it's using an amd 64bit processor and a hard disk drive
[19:42] <dr_willis>  gnome-settings-daemon
[19:42] <nattty> http://paste.ubuntu.com/640329/
[19:43] <andre215> hi
[19:43] <dr_willis> those are warnings.. not crituical
[19:43] <shazzner> can someone help quittix3 out? I have to run.
[19:43] <shazzner> sorry
[19:43] <sveinse> How does Ubuntu/kernel handle power management while running on batteries? I need more power from the CPU, but it seems it doesn't let me. If I set the guvernor to performance it still runs on the lowest speed
[19:44] <nattty> dr_willis, how can I tell if the program is running?
[19:45] <dr_willis> nattty,  theres a script that kills and restarts the program at the url i mentioned --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/574296
[19:45] <nattty> thanks!
[19:45] <nikhgupta> how can I open port UDP/514? or provide my user permission for listening on it?
[19:46] <dr_willis> nattty,  the postings have several dozen 'possible solutions' and mention some updates to fix the issue,.,.  but ive no idea if its been fixed or not.
[19:46] <dr_willis>  "killall gnome-settings-daemon; gnome-settings-daemon & nautilus -q"
[19:46] <dr_willis> is one temp fix
[19:47] <rockenrola> How can I tell which network interface a service is listening to?
[19:48] <yossef> hi, I've just installed redshift but it doesn't work
[19:48] <shane2peru> dr_willis: unfortunately, it colordiff doesn't export as html. :(  I'm going to have to look for a script I guess.
[19:49] <dajhorn> rockenrola:  Try `netstat -lntp` and `netstat -lnup`
[19:49] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  the power of perl! :)
[19:49] <dr_willis> html diff output.. may be a bit hard to read...
[19:49] <dr_willis>  you would want it monospaced anyway.. so why html :)
[19:50] <dr_willis> nattty,  other artical on it --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/11406/gnome-settings-daemon-doesnt-apply-themes-unless-i-kill-it-and-start-it-manuall
[19:50] <shane2peru> dr_willis: perhaps, but I barely do bash
[19:50] <kfizz> If I have my router set to DMZ my computer's static LAN IP shouldn't I see a looot of ports when I nmap localhost?
[19:50] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  should i mention. that I do recall there being some gui diff front ends...
[19:50] <rockenrola> dajhorn: is shows:  tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:8651            <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      867/gmetad
[19:50] <shane2peru> dr_willis: I'm doing large docs and want to compare the differences, a long study, so I want a universal format, as for the gui right there is kompare, and tkdiff both decent.
[19:50] <nattty> dr_willis, thanks
[19:51] <dajhorn> rockenrola: The <IP_ADDRESS> means that gmetad is listening on all interfaces, port 8651.
[19:51] <nattty> I think i'll try that one -- i can't understand what this script is trying to do.
[19:51] <shane2peru> dr_willis: here we go:  http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/convert-diff-output-colorized-html    and it is even bash. :)
[19:51] <rockenrola> ok, thanks. Then the problem is somewhere else
[19:51] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  large docs.. ok. :)  i just use diff  for config files
[19:51] <dr_willis> shane2peru,  i do recall some gui diff front end.. but cant find it now.
[19:51] <shane2peru> dr_willis: right, this is more of a long term study, not a quick config fix
[19:51] <xarvh> Hi, any clue ofr why gnome-volume-control cant's start "Waiting for sound system to respond"? I found several bug reports, but can't unmute my PC with alsamixer... =(
[19:52] <l3d> what will convert a  avi file to one that can be played on cellphone running android ?
[19:52] <shane2peru> dr_willis: kompare and tkdiff are the two front end guis I found and tried.  both decent, but I want a generic format that I can use anywhere
[19:53] <dr_willis> tk! old skool :)
[19:53] <dr_willis> !info tkdiff
[19:53] <nemanja> hi, I have a problem
[19:53] <dajhorn> l3d: My favorite is handbrake.fr, which is available through a PPA.  It has presets for mobile devices.
[19:54] <dr_willis> l3d,  my android phone can play most anything i toss at it - with the right player.. there are converteres out.. winff with the right presets works well. arista   also works well
[19:54] <nemanja> can'T wriTe small T, I run Terminal all The Time - anyone has idea how To repair? Thank you!
[19:55] <dr_willis> l3d,  the main trick is to realize the 'default' video player for android is a bit limited. :) moboplayer,  i find can play most everything.
[19:55] <kfizz> If I have my router set to DMZ my computer's static LAN IP shouldn't I see a looot of ports when I nmap localhost?
[19:55] <Delrayne> alright, so I'm at the screen where it says 'try without installing' etc...and I press enter to try it, and then my monitor goes black, I hear the ubuntu start up sound, so its loading up, i just need a way to get my monitor to work with it....any ideas?
[19:55] <amoskong> nemanja: reset  ?
[19:55] <rww> kfizz: nmapping localhost would be completely unaffected by router DMZ settings
[19:55] <dr_willis> kfizz,  nmaping localhost.. wouldent matter on the router at all..  and nmap would show ports that respond.. no servers listening.. would mean nothing responds..
[19:55] <nemanja> how? I ran scripT : gconftool-2 -t string -s /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_4 "<Ctrl%gt;%lt;Shift>t" gconftool-2 -t string -s /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_4 "xterm"
[19:56] <nemanja> And now I do noT know how To repair iT
[19:56] <dr_willis> nemanja,  does the Console also have the same tT issue?
[19:56] <Arm0ur> \part
[19:56] <nemanja> yepp
[19:57] <dr_willis> nemanja,  if the console also does it.. that almost sounds like a hardware issue..  You tried a live cd yet to see if it is also affecting a 'clean' live cd setup?
[19:58] <l3d> ok but i need to make the vid as small as possible  due to small sdcard and when use winff the mobile  phone presets is mp3
[19:58] <kfizz> rww, dr_willis, how would I enable remote desktop viewing? I've enabled it via System -> Prefs -> Remote Desktop and I've selected "allow other users to control your desktop" and it says only users on the LAN can access my computer (which is fine) but it says to use the address localhost, shouldn't that be my static IP?
[19:58] <dr_willis> l3d,  winff has presets i use all the time.. 1/2 hr show = 30mb or so..  but dont expect the video it makes to look good on anything except the phone.
