[14:21] <Gentoo64> i could be wrong but im guessing its just kernel ones
[14:21] <htlm> really?  so is that why the pics look so good? the big file size
[14:21] <ionite> Gentoo64: i tried to install compiz manager but i got this error Package dependencies cannot be resolved
[14:21] <qtx> ionite kk one sec.
[14:22] <Gentoo64> ionite, dont ask me... lol :(
[14:22] <Sidewinder1> !reisub > japro
[14:22] <lotuspsychje> clock 33mhz lol
[14:22] <Gentoo64> htlm, with jpeg its lossy as in the quality degrades, with png its lossless and compressed (like a flac file) so you get full quality
[14:23] <ionite> domedagen: so what should i do next?
[14:23] <qtx> ionite you are not using a ATI you are using N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller
[14:24] <Gentoo64> ionite, i dont think the intel gpu has anything to do with that compiz error
[14:24] <ionite> qtx: there's some screen delays and i feel so helpless.
[14:24] <ionite> qtx: how should i go about?
[14:24] <japro> Sidewinder1, it doesn't react to anything :-( i don't get it, i have no idea what changed
[14:25] <lotuspsychje> ionite: didnt you say u had ati card in pciE?
[14:25] <qtx> ionite I would think that is not the worlds fastest chip. I would not use things like compiz etc
[14:25] <ionite> lotuspsychje: mine is interaged n10 gpu
[14:25] <domedagen> ionite: hmm Since it's an Intel Atom I suppose you're not using ATI graphics.
[14:25] <lotuspsychje> lol
[14:25] <myrmidette> ty Stanley00 and ActionParsnip
[14:25] <qtx> ionite you can see more if you do this sudo lshw | grep display
[14:26] <ionite> qtx: that's why i need to install compiz manager to disable some settings but i keep getting this error: Package dependencies cannot be resolved
[14:26] <japro> do i have to press shift at som specific point?
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> ionite: so its like qtx says better no compiz on intel card
[14:26] <Sidewinder1> qtx, qtx = qxt ? Just curious.. :)
[14:27] <japro> ti seems to get stuck at the "ubuntu" screen no matter what i do
[14:27] <qtx> Sidewinder1, the one and many!
[14:27] <Sidewinder1> Legion!
[14:27] <qtx> =)
[14:27] <ionite> lotuspsychje: so how do i disable the compiz?
[14:27] <domedagen> ionite: How did your last KDE desktop look? Are you sure you can have a lot of desktop effects?
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> ionite: just login to ubuntu classic without compiz
[14:28] <qtx> System -> Pref -> Appearance and just turn off effects
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> ionite: or try lightweight ubuntu distro's
[14:29] <Gentoo64> yea id recommend that theyl feel snappier
[14:29] <qtx> ionite the above was to you. Not sure what windows manager you're using.
[14:29] <ionite> qtx: so do i still log in as classic w/o effects?
[14:29] <qtx> ionite or the
[14:29] <htlm> japro was wrong
[14:29] <qtx> ionite or that.
[14:29] <domedagen> ionite: You can use Untiy but you have to disble some effects
[14:30] <japro> htlm, ?
[14:30] <domedagen> ionite: Until you found a good balance between apperance and speed
[14:30] <ionite> domedagen: how do i go about?
[14:30] <jackjon89> Hi, wondering if someone can help.... it seems to be a bug and i have found a partial fix.  basically gnome fails to load a theme on startup and i get the old win98 look.  I have made a partial fix to add some time before running the gnome settings on startup which has fixed the launch and start bars... but my home folder still looks like the old style... please help ?
[14:30] <domedagen> ionite: Or you could go Gnome 3 and disable some effect
[14:30] <ionite> qtx: i dont see any disable appearance settings in the appearance preferences
[14:31] <htlm> japro did you need help
[14:31] <ljsoftnet> jackjon89 try a default theme, the theme that goes with ubuntu
[14:31] <ionite> domedagen: what are the other light weighted ubuntu alternatives that are pretty and snappy?
[14:31] <qtx> ionite I dont know what UI you are using but I am guessing you doint even have effects working then. What do you see in if you use the cmd top
[14:32] <ionite> qtx:  what are the other very support ubuntu that are snappier and pretty?
[14:32] <japro> htlm, yes, i have a computer here that runs ubuntu only and gets stuck at the "ubuntu" screen with the five dots
[14:32] <japro> doesn't react to any keyboard input it seems
[14:32] <domedagen> ionite: xfce for really old computers but it will look as boring as anying else without effects
[14:33] <domedagen> ionite: Open control center
[14:33] <qtx> ionite yeah but there are not Ubuntu =) Mint has a Ubuntu type OS. Much faster in the UI
[14:33] <jackjon89> hi ljsoftnet, the theme is the standard 'Ambiance' theme, i haven't changed it... gnome just stopped loading the theme suddenly.  I found a partial fix here : http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/fix-ubuntu-linux-mint-theme-changing-to.html
[14:33] <Anubis> japro, have you tried CTRL + ALT + F1 to F5 to switch to a terminal?
[14:33] <ionite> qtx: is mint supported in this channel?
[14:33] <jackjon89> the above fix sorts the launch/start bar... but my home folder is still win98 style :(
[14:33] <japro> Anubis, yes
[14:33] <qtx> ionite well it is Ubuntu but the UI is not the same. Heard the it was the 2ed most popular *nix OS after Ubuntu
[14:34] <oCean> ionite: no it is not
[14:34] <Anubis> japro so you get a terminal?
[14:34] <japro> no
[14:34] <japro> no reaction whatsoever
[14:34] <ionite> qtx: i need a good channel support because i'm such a idioit to ubuntu and i really don't wanna go back to windows anymore.
[14:34] <qtx> ionite no but it is Ubuntu if you look at the kernel (lots of blobs) and the repo is the same
[14:34] <htlm> japro  how to spell about what happened did you install something
[14:34] <oCean> qtx, ionite that still does not make it subject of support in this channel
[14:34] <ionite> oCean: so are u using mint?
[14:35] <htlm> japro how'd this come about
[14:35] <oCean> ionite: no
[14:35] <ionite> oCean: i mean since ubuntu is unsuitable for my netbook. so what should i use?
[14:35] <qtx> ionite yeah I understand your dilemma.
[14:35] <japro> htlm, i can't tell, i guess i did install some stuff like geany, and it also updated stuff
[14:35] <oCean> ionite: I'm not using a netbook
[14:35] <ionite> qtx: since i'm so lagging here. and i don't like kde as ubuntu is better in some ways but now it's lagging which kinda upsets me.
[14:36] <domedagen> ionite: Did not find any effect setting with Unity but try log in to Ubuntu Classic (with effects) and see if you can find a way to tweak it
[14:36] <htlm> you updated so for some reason it broken the packages and its doing this
[14:36] <lotuspsychje> !xubuntu
[14:36] <qtx> ionite on some of my VMs I have used Mint. I am more into Arch GNU/LInux with a fvwm
[14:36] <japro> can i boot to a console with the install cd?
[14:37] <qtx> ionite, would not recommend that if you do not feel at home with Ubuntu though.
[14:37] <ionite> qtx: i'm a noob to ubuntu. so what should i use for stability?
[14:37] <domedagen> ionite: Are you lagging with no effects?
[14:37] <gp2mv3> hi all, i've a problem with my brother's computer, it show dmesg log randomly while the session is open. Is there a simple solution ?
[14:37] <ionite> domedagen: slightly.
[14:37] <jackjon89> can anyone help with gnome themes not loading in my home folder ?
[14:37] <qtx> ionite, Mint might be a 2ed to Ubuntu if you really don't like the feeling of Ubuntu.
[14:37] <domedagen> ionite: :( What OS was your LT shipped with?
[14:38] <domedagen> ionite: XP or W7?
[14:38] <ionite> domedagen: was shipped with netbook edition of ubuntu
[14:38] <japro> can i somehow disable the spash screen to at least get the messages and have some idea what is going wrong?
[14:38] <MonkeyDust> ionite: i use Mint for that reason
[14:38] <lotuspsychje> domedagen: url said ubuntu remix
[14:38] <htlm>  control alt f 4
[14:38] <ionite> MonkeyDust: is mint support good? because i'll ask alot beginner's questions
[14:38] <ilari_> I have a problem with unity in ubuntu studio 11.04. Unity wont load previous settings at startup. What should i do?
[14:39] <gp2mv3> hi all, i've a problem with my brother's computer, it show dmesg log randomly while the session is open. Is there a simple solution ?
[14:39] <Gentoo64> ionite, are you coming from windows then?
[14:39] <qtx> ionite, I have only seen Windows computers though shells. I like the XP ones the most ;)
[14:39] <ionite> qtx: i mean i like ubuntu but it's the delays which is frustrating me.
[14:39] <ionite> Gentoo64: nope.
[14:39] <oCean> !mint | ionite this channel is not to discuss various distributions
[14:39] <jackjon89> ilari_ do those settings include themes ?
[14:39] <thegladiator> any alternatives to evince ? i need a pdf reader with good color schemas like for night reading and stuff
[14:39] <Anubis> japro you should be able to boot from a livecd or live usb and mount your file system.
[14:39] <irenicus09> Hi I have this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poedit/+bug/613530
[14:39] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, epdfview is similar bhut miles lighter
[14:40] <qtx> ionite Ill look up that N10. See just how slow it is... on sec
[14:40] <antiphysicist> hi, is there any way other than usb/cd install to install xp on dual boot
[14:40] <japro> Anubis, how would i then go about figuring out what is wrong?
[14:40] <irenicus09> anyone can point out how I can fix it?
[14:40] <ionite> qtx: thanks so much
[14:40] <domedagen> ionite: What if you return to that?
[14:40] <Anubis> japro other than that I would have to do research and be in front of the system in other to help sorry
[14:40] <htlm> gp2mv3 huh
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> antiphysicist: wrong channel
[14:40] <thegladiator> Thanks I am basically looking for a pdf viewer that can actually give me good color choices to read better during night time etc
[14:40] <ionite> domedagen: return to?
[14:40] <Benkinooby> some1 here who isntalle ubuntu on a mac?
[14:41] <thegladiator> does ubuntu support apps that are paid ?
[14:41] <ilari_> ackjon89: no. I mean unity wont load icons i have added and desktop apps.
[14:41] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, epdfview has less features, so im not sure what else to suggest. hasnt evince got invert colours otions?
[14:41] <gp2mv3> htlm: i never saw that in 8 years of ubuntu...
[14:41] <ionite> btw if i wanna purge wine. what commands do i type in terminal?
[14:41] <domedagen> ionite: Ubuntu Remix?
[14:41] <pythonsnake> gp2mv3: saw what
[14:41] <thegladiator> Invert colors aint quite good , it makes it black and white - can I chose colors  in Evince ?
[14:41] <gp2mv3> hi all, i've a problem with my brother's computer, it show dmesg log randomly while the session is open. Is there a simple solution ?
[14:41] <antiphysicist> monkeydust: sorry, why is this the wrong channel and which should I use?
[14:41] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, no i dont htink so
[14:42] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, epdfview has pretty much no options
[14:42] <MonkeyDust> antiphysicist: it's a win question, this channel is for ubuntu support
[14:42] <Anubis> japro: have you tried the "safe mode" from the selection prompt on boot, you know from grub?
[14:42] <thegladiator> okay I have a reader in Ipod which gives me a nice yellow black background which is good for night time reading
[14:42] <gp2mv3> pythonsnake: hi all, i've a problem with my brother's computer, it show dmesg log randomly while the session is open. Is there a simple solution ?
[14:42] <japro> Anubis, i don't get a grub screen
[14:42] <pythonsnake> gp2mv3: 0o
[14:43] <ilari_> help
[14:43] <Sidewinder1> antiphysicist, Just remember, if one installs Win*, after ubuntu, you'll bork GRUB.
[14:43] <gp2mv3> japro: in the gdm you can choose gnome safe mode
[14:43] <japro> i don't get to gdm
[14:43] <thegladiator> Any way my other question is do we have app store where you can pay and buy softwares like in Apple
[14:43] <qtx> ionite I took a little shotcut david and had a look at your system. You are using a D410 Atom with a GMA that should be "OK" Your not going to get super speed
[14:43] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, if you like ncurses stuff i think zakuma its called maybe yuou can on that, but itll be ugly compared to evince
[14:43] <thegladiator> I know the default app store for Ubuntu
[14:43] <lotuspsychje> !ask | ilari_
[14:43] <japro> it boots up and straigt after the bios stuff i get the pink screen and it is stuck there
[14:43] <Gentoo64> thegladiator, zathura i mean
[14:44] <domedagen> ionite: I see your probelm. Netbook Remix is now merged with regualar Ubunt
[14:44] <htlm> ionite it you're going to lag almost no matter what unless you're going to increase your am still better ram.... for now chain your g u I
[14:44] <gp2mv3> japro: did you install the boot sequence ?
[14:44] <ionite> domedagen: lotuspsychje MonkeyDust Gentoo64 oCean qtx honestly, how do i know for my system specs if i am suitable for ubuntu or not?
[14:44] <thegladiator> Gentoo64, thanks would try that
[14:44] <ionite> domedagen: that's right!!! netbook remix has merged. so now i'm stuck.
[14:44] <qtx> ionite because I know about hw
[14:44] <gp2mv3> ionite: lspci ?
[14:44] <ionite> qtx: but i upgraded my ram to 2gb
[14:44] <Gentoo64> ionite, what do you mean? try xuubntu or lubuntu both are much lighter and look nice still
[14:44] <japro> gp2mv3, uhm, no idea. it was a entierly empty system and i just did the most standard install
[14:45] <gp2mv3> japro: in alternate or liveCD ?
[14:45] <qtx> domedagen is a Swedish dude who likes fast gear!
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> lol
[14:45] <gp2mv3> japro: because at the end of the alternate installation it ask to install the boot sequence
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> swedish stuff is nice
[14:45] <domedagen> ionite: Or at least xubuntu http://www.xubuntu.org/
[14:45] <japro> i guess it's the livecd then
[14:45] <ionite> qtx: so what is ur suggestion?
[14:46] <ionite> domedagen: can't i disable somethings in compiz?
[14:46] <japro> cant remember, i only did stuff like configuring keyboard during installation
[14:46] <domedagen> ionite: Not if "no effects" doesnt help Im afraid
[14:47] <conntrack> anyone own a trim slice?
[14:47] <domedagen> qtx: Whats that all about?
[14:47] <qtx> ionite well you got 2GB on your system as it is. Should be enough by far. I often toss together a distro for my own use that uses 64MB only
[14:47] <domedagen> ionite: Avoid lubuntu though
[14:48] <qtx> domedagen, no you going on about what ionite and I are talking about. No big deal
[14:48] <KM0201> domedagen: why is that?
[14:48] <KM0201> lubuntu is awesome
[14:48] <ionite> domedagen: oh no... i'm so tired or changing so many environment...
[14:48] <KM0201> ionite: well, if he's telling yout O 'avoid lubuntu'.. that simply shows he has no clue.
[14:49] <KM0201> not saying that is your answer, your issue is clearly compiz/3D junk
[14:49] <KM0201> since lxde runs w/ bare minimum effects..  it probaby would be ok.
[14:49] <ionite> KM0201: so how do i disable compiz when i cannot even install the compiz manager?
[14:49] <domedagen> ionite: xubuntu could probably be the solution
[14:49] <KM0201> xubuntu or lubuntu, either would work fine.. xubuntu has become bloated IMO, fell out of favor w/ me.
[14:50] <domedagen> ionite: Im not familiar with low spec computers but my intuition tells me that this will work
[14:50] <KM0201> ionite: did you try logging out and logging in to "Classic: No Effects"
[14:50] <KM0201> that disables compiz.
[14:50] <ionite> KM0201: that's what i am doing now.
[14:50] <KM0201> ok.
[14:51] <ionite> KM0201: it still feels slightly delayed compared to KDE.
[14:51] <htlm> ionite OK I got what you need ... xfce . is the gui u need to see the speed  boost you ask for
[14:51] <gp2mv3> this is the xsessions-error for my problem: http://pastebin.com/DSzhiy0q
[14:51] <qtx> ionite Nothing wrong with your cpu. If you want to speed things up a bit get a cheap card like a Nvidia 210G or something. Cost like 20 USD. That card uses 32nm tech and a few cuda cores that can be tapped into.
[14:51] <domedagen> ionite: This is what I think about you switching to lubuntu instead of xubuntu http://nooooooooooooooo.com/
[14:51] <ionite> qtx: but my netbook are all integrated features. i can't just add on?
[14:51] <KM0201> ionite: i dunno, i hate KDE, it always feels like my OS is running through water, so im not a fair judge, but gnome: no effects has always been fast and stable for me, lxde is very fast.
[14:52] <KM0201> domedagen: do you have any basis for that, or.. just being witty?
[14:52] <CyborgSmurf> Is there a program equivalent to portforward on Ubuntu?
[14:52] <japro> i get the impression that it somehow doesn't recognize the keyboard
[14:52]  * Morfeus^ is away: I'm busy
[14:52] <htlm> ionite no you strip down
[14:52] <ionite> honestly i'm not trying to have a competition here on which environment is that best or etc but i'm just frustrated with myself as i don't know which is better for me and my system.
[14:52] <xangua> CyborgSmurf: and what does this portforward do¿ not psychics here
[14:53] <KM0201> ionite: lxde is very much for the minimalist though, if you like wild graphics, 3D effects, etc... it won't work.
[14:53] <oCean> !afk > Morfeus^
[14:53] <japro> as soon as it is stuck i can't even toggle the caps lock led on the keyboard etc
[14:53] <pythonsnake> How can I get KDE 4.7.1 ?
[14:53] <KM0201> ionite: if you can't get 3D to work, your best bet is either xubuntu or lubuntu... only reason i don't like xubuntu, is that window compositing does not work well, and made the GUI funny at times.
[14:53] <Morfeus^> ubottu, sorry
[14:53] <qtx> ionite, yeah I saw that. If your not the DIY type that wants to open up the thing ....  Maybe Ubuntus new UI is a hog?
[14:53] <xangua> pythonsnake: add the kde ppa
[14:54] <xangua> backport or something like that is called
[14:54] <KM0201> qtx: lol, maybe?
[14:54] <CyborgSmurf> xangua: I need it to be able to play StarCraft on battlenet... Im not good at this so bare with me. It opens ports within a specific range. I need to add something to my router, I think...
[14:54] <ionite> qtx: i think so too so i'm so lost now..
[14:54] <qtx> KM0201, is it? I stopped using Ubuntu at 10.10 when I first saw it.
[14:54] <KM0201> unity will be the downfall of Ubuntu if they don't get it back on track.
[14:54] <KM0201> qtx: it's a mess, it's why i stopped using ubuntu
[14:54] <qtx> ionite give Mint a try. My mother could use that.
[14:55] <htlm> read watch youbue about them ...  IM telling u ice dint this and have it right now .. I see a 7-16% in changing a few things around and one being the gui
[14:55] <KM0201> qtx: but.. i do have faith that in a few releases, unity will probably be pretty good.
[14:55] <KM0201> Mint?.. gag.
[14:55] <domedagen> KM0201: Just look at the screenshots! No one should be stucked with this 2011
[14:55] <lotuspsychje> unity rox
[14:55] <KM0201> domedagen: that doesnt' make sense.
[14:55] <htlm> increase*
[14:55]  * Sidewinder1 Hands KM0201 a hankie.
[14:55] <KM0201> a hankie?
[14:56] <ionite> qtx:  what's mint support channe? i need a environment that has gd support and stable OS.
[14:56] <Sidewinder1> You gagged, didn't you?
[14:56] <KM0201> ionite: it's stable, but mint channels are not very active (i hang out there to help new users, even though i don't use it)..
[14:56] <domedagen> KM0201: It actually makes perfectly good sense. They haven't tried to make it look smooth
[14:56] <KM0201> how do you know that?
[14:56] <htlm> lubuntu
[14:56] <qtx> KM0201, I hear you on that. As a programmer it was not much of a workstation. Have Eclipse, emacs, DDD and like 10 terminals all open on the same time on that UI. lol .. not
[14:57] <KM0201> real men use command line..lol (if only i could use a web browser..lol)
[14:58] <irenicus09> Anyone can help me fix this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/poedit/+bug/613530
[14:58] <KM0201> since i started using linux on my server, i've gotten pretty good at command line.
[14:58] <qtx> ionite, Yeah they should. I mean it is the 2ed most used Linux Desktop now. Lots of Ubuntu defectors moved to Mint
[14:58]  * Sidewinder1 Begins his download with Kermit..
[14:58] <ikonia> irenicus09: it's a duplicate bug, work with people working on the master bug
[14:58] <ionite> qtx: is it better for low end netbooks like mine? what's the difference from ubuntu?
[14:59] <oCean> qtx, ionite Enough, this is not a discussion channel for various distributions (as I've said before), let's move back to support, ok?
[14:59] <ionite> qtx: what's mint support channel? i need to make sure someone canhelp me though.
[14:59] <oCean> !mint | ionite
[14:59] <ikonia> !mint | irenicus09
[14:59] <ikonia> oops
[14:59] <ionite> oCean: i tried that channel but there's no one but me?
[14:59] <oCean> ionite: this channel cannot help you with that
[15:00] <htlm> ionite LOL herds what you stand ... debian, puppy Linux  ,lubuntu ,meego ,xubuntu (stripped  down a bit)
[15:00] <htlm> here*
[15:00] <ikonia> ionite: the channel is full, it's just not on freenode
[15:00] <ionite> oCean: yes i know i tried that channel u gave me but no one is there>
[15:00] <ionite> ikonia: ?
[15:00] <KM0201> ikonia: it might be full, but nobody ever talks there.. thats the issue w/ it
[15:00] <ikonia> ionite: there IS, it's not on freenode, it's on irc.spotchat.org as the factoid says
[15:00] <a4> is there a way via command line on a shortcut that i can make the program open in fullscreen? (Ubuntu 11.04.)
[15:00] <ikonia> KM0201: it's quite active, I'm in it
[15:01] <KM0201> ikonia: so am i
[15:01] <domedagen> ionite: What ahppened to xubuntu?
[15:01] <KM0201> right now is an exception, the channel is usually dead
[15:01] <ikonia> nope
[15:01] <ionite> ikonia: oic.
[15:02] <ionite> domedagen: honestly i really enjoy the support here in ubuntu but the environment is laggy for me.
[15:02] <htlm> what do you mean
[15:02] <Stanley00> a4: it depends on the prog, try run with --help to see if there is an option, or use wmctrl prog
[15:02] <domedagen> ionite: But xubuntu drains no power
[15:02] <pythonsnake> what is kde pim ?
[15:02] <ikonia> pythonsnake: personal information management
[15:02] <japro> so i booted the livecd now, where would i look for boot error messages?
[15:03] <japro> /etc/...?
[15:03] <pythonsnake> ikonia: what is it for ?
[15:03] <ikonia> pythonsnake:
[15:03] <ikonia> pythonsnake: http://community.kde.org/KDE_PIM
[15:03] <pythonsnake> managing personal info ?
[15:03] <domedagen> ionite: You will likly have the same trouble with Linux Mint KDE/Gnome as you have with ubuntu Unity
[15:03] <pythonsnake> thanks for the link ikonia
[15:03] <ikonia> pythonsnake: you may want to try #kubuntu for kubuntu disucssion
[15:03] <ikonia> pythonsnake: more specialist people there
[15:04] <ionite> domedagen: oh no... maybe i should just go back to windows? sighs.
[15:04] <domedagen> ionite: NO! Aboslutly not
[15:04] <KM0201> no, you shouldn't just go back to windows... just over unity silliness
[15:04] <pythonsnake> ikonia: ok
[15:04] <a4> i ran --help on it (google chrome) in terminal and all it said is that there are hundreds of command line options for chrome that come and go but it doesnt list a single one Stanley00
[15:04] <KM0201> ionite: what are your system specs?
[15:04] <htlm> ionite distros is what IM good at ....
[15:04] <domedagen> KM0201: HERESY!
[15:04] <ikonia> ionite: use whatever platform works best fo ryou. If that's windows, that's fine
[15:05] <escott> japro, logs are in /var/log and dmesg
[15:05] <domedagen> ionite: Actually, that's not fine
[15:05] <ikonia> domedagen: yes, it IS - we do not tell people what to use
[15:05] <ionite> the handshake between ubuntu evironments and my low end netbook is frustrating me out.. and windows is so screwed..
[15:05] <KM0201> ionite: what are the specs of your netbook.
[15:05] <abyss> hi, i'd like to testing aireplay-ng, and when I try to send packet i get this error: wlan0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel 9
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> my netbook rox on unity
[15:06] <domedagen> ionite: But you have only tried the heavy ones because we didn't understood you used Intel Atom
[15:06] <abyss> ubuntu 11.04, 2.6.38-11-generic, Intel 4965/5xxx (wlan)
[15:06] <abyss> how can i fix it?
[15:06] <outer_space> is there a way to mount a remote ftp directory so it looks like a regular directory I can edit stuff in my text editor?
[15:06] <ionite> domedagen: sighs... kde is too buggy. now ubuntu is laggy.
[15:06] <domedagen> ikonia: Unless we can free a soul from being a slave of the Microsoft corporation
[15:07] <ikonia> domedagen: no - not at all, please don't bad mouth microsoft,
[15:07] <ikonia> ionite: what OS came with the netbook ?
[15:07] <outer_space> what is "too buggy" its relative
[15:07] <KM0201> domedagen: plus, he only has 1gig of ram, no wonder he's having an issue.
[15:07] <ionite> ikonia: netbook remix which was a discontinued product.. sighs.
[15:07] <lotuspsychje> ionite: domedagen sugested few times already to run classic without effects...doesnt that work out for you?
[15:07] <ionite> lotuspsychje: no. it's still slightly laggy.
[15:07] <domedagen> ionite: KM0201 ikonia dont know anything about your specs dont listen to them
[15:07] <outer_space> debian might work better than ubuntu for 1gb ram, ubuntu likes more ram
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> ionite: there is a PPA for it though
[15:08] <outer_space> I think theres a debian netbook version
[15:08] <qin> ionite: xfce4
[15:08] <ikonia> domedagen: I've not suggested anything, just asked questions.
[15:08] <KM0201> domedagen: i do know his specs, he sent them to me, what ar eyou talking about/
[15:08] <ikonia> ionite: what ubuntu versions have you tried ?
[15:08] <Stanley00> a4: do you need that much? if so install wmctrl and learn using that, i didnt use that before
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> on low resource systems use Lubuntu, its badass. Or even lighter, install ubuntu minimal, then install openbox
[15:09] <outer_space> 1gb ram is the least of your problems, the display is tiny and the keyboard is all clacky
[15:09] <domedagen> KM0201: He has 2GB of RAK
[15:09] <ionite> ikonia: KDE, XFCE, LTS for both as well, Ubuntu is my current one
[15:09] <pythonsnake> wow! Kubuntu 11.04 is impressive!
[15:09] <KM0201> domedagen: the specs he sent me, says 1gig
[15:09] <ionite> i upraged my ram to 2gb
[15:09] <obsessed_with_je> Is the netbook remix version of ubuntu supposed to be a joke? it's the most laggy and slow version ive ever installed, ubuntu runs faster on my netbook than the so called netbook-version
[15:09] <abyss> hi, i'd like to testing aireplay-ng, and when I try to send packet i get this error: wlan0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel 9, ubuntu 11.04, 2.6.38-11-generic, Intel 4965/5xxx (wlan), how canI fix it?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> obsessed_with_je: do you mean the one in Jaunty?
[15:09] <Sidewinder1> outer_space, I've been running ubuntu with only 1 GB of RAM, no problems, even with compiz cube, and many other apps running.
[15:09] <KM0201> well, he didn't tell me that.
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> Sidewinder1: same
[15:10] <japro> ok, so apparently X fails to start, what do i change the Driver to if the nvidia module falis? vesa?
[15:10] <ikonia> ionite: what was the issue with xubuntu from your point of view ?
[15:10] <outer_space> my ubuntu box takes up over 1gb ram after it boots up, but debian takes up 200mb
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> japro: blacklist the nvidia driver and nouveau will load
[15:10] <xangua> ikonia: kicked by using kubuntu¿ o_O
[15:10] <lotuspsychje> obsessed_with_je: some netbooks still sold with remix
[15:10] <htlm> ionite   m.youtube.com/watch?desktop_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DxSYxPYv5BTo&v=xSYxPYv5BTo&gl=US    this is about desktop environments and what you need to know
[15:10] <domedagen> KM0201: If you're specs says he has 1GB then maybe something went wrong with the installion of RAM, np?
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> outer_space: what are you loading at startup?
[15:10] <ionite> ikonia: lack of channel support which is so important to me as i'm such a nooob.
[15:10] <tiago> Hello guys, a small question: I got 11.10 Beta 2 running here and I would like to know if when it gets officially launched, the upgrade will be smooth or will be better to format and reinstall the new version?
[15:10] <KM0201> domedagen: i'm telling you the link he gave me... he just told me he upgraded it to 2gigs (which he didn't tell me before)
[15:10] <outer_space> i dont know, usual ubuntu stuff, maybe a webserver too
[15:10] <oCean> tiago: Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released (still beta). Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion
[15:10] <ikonia> ionite: ok - so the actual distro was "ok" to you just the lack of support in the channel ?
[15:11] <tiago> ok, thanks for the tip
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> outer_space: webserver will chew a lot of RAM. I have Kubuntu and samba, ssh, fatrat, transmission and KDE run and it's litle over 1Gb
[15:11] <domedagen> KM0201: What link was that?
[15:11] <ionite> ikonia: it's too plain too.
[15:11] <KM0201> domedagen: he PM'd it to me
[15:12] <ikonia> ionite: plain, could you expand a little on that please
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> outer_space: my LXDE desktop uses just under 300Mb
[15:12] <ionite> ikonia: i'm just looking for something slighltly more pretty as I'm a financial planner i need to show clients my research reports.
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> ionite: LXDE?
[15:12] <outer_space> is there a good native way to mount a remote ftp directory before i start trying stuff
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> outer_space: nautilus can do it
[15:13] <KM0201> ionite: w/ your specs, you're not gonna have very much "pretty".... second, thats really an application issue, i doubt they're gonna care fi your desktop ha 3D while you're showing them docs
[15:13] <outer_space> you should show them stuff from a webserver with jqplot or some nice javascript
[15:13] <ikonia> ionite: so is it the application you want to look more fancy, or the OS
[15:13] <domedagen> ionite: What link did you send KM0201? You can ask xubuntu questions in here as long as you dont mention your using xubuntu
[15:14] <outer_space> then you can give your clients a user/pass to look at your charts hosted from your computer
[15:14] <ikonia> ionite: also there is the channel #xubuntu that support xubuntu spefcially, and has good users.
[15:14] <ionite> ikonia: just good HW sync with my blackberry, scanner.
[15:14] <ikonia> ionite: ok - you're not going to get blackberry sync,
[15:14] <ikonia> ionite: blackberry support with Linux is very very poor
[15:14] <domedagen> ionite: Because if that link says you have 1GB and you think you have 2GB something is wrong
[15:15] <ionite> domedagen:  i changed it to 2gb
[15:15] <ionite> ikonia: sighs.
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> ionite: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/wp-content/uploads/MoonOS.jpg  pretty enough :)
[15:15] <KM0201> domedagen: ar eyou typing just to hear yourself talk?.. he said he upgraded it
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> !away > jnix_detached
[15:16] <lotuspsychje> ActionParsnip: looks nice lol
[15:16] <ionite> the very reason why i am still hanging on to ubuntu is because of this channel, the friendly users supportive help for me.
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> lotuspsychje: lightweight too
[15:16] <ikonia> ionite: be aware of #xubuntu - it is just as good, but specific to xubuntu
[15:17] <lotuspsychje> ActionParsnip: is that 1 ubuntu based?
[15:17] <domedagen> KM0201: Thought you meant a terminal print, but know I understand you mean something else
[15:17] <ionite> so now.. i'm just so lost. so many OS.
[15:17] <ionite> *i mean environments.
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> lotuspsychje: yes, but you can install Lubuntu and theme it up and get supported here
[15:17] <tetsuo--> hello, i am running ubuntu with 4 different user accounts, one of those users cannot access darkorbit.com, and the other 3 can, what could be causing this problem and how do i fix it??
[15:18] <ikonia> tetsuo--: 4 users at the same time (desktop)? or one at a time
[15:18] <pythonsnake> How to logout from command line ?
[15:18] <domedagen> ionite: You cant use Blackberry Sync probably but you can use other services that work on linux
[15:18] <KM0201> Python1320: exit
[15:18] <Stanley00> pythonsnake: type exit or logout
[15:18] <ikonia> pythonsnake: the gui is it's own shell, you log out from the gui
[15:18] <tetsuo--> ikonia: each have their own desktop/sessions, it doesnt matter if all or just one are logged in
[15:18] <pythonsnake> exit terminate terminal
[15:18] <escott> Python1320, gnome-session-quit to exit the gui
[15:18] <ikonia> tetsuo--: check the users session, proxy for example
[15:19] <KM0201> oh i thought he meant to close the terminal
[15:19] <pythonsnake> escott: Thanks :)
[15:19] <domedagen> ionite: What do you need to sync? Files or calander?
[15:19] <ikonia> escott: he's using kde
[15:19] <ionite> domedagen: yep.
[15:19] <ionite> but i really appreciate all of ur help guys.
[15:19] <pythonsnake> should be something similar
[15:19] <tetsuo--> ikonia: it says direct internet connection for proxy
[15:19] <ikonia> pythonsnake: could be, but there doesn't have to be
[15:20] <ikonia> tetsuo--: what happens when he tries to visit the site
[15:20] <Dinux17> I have trouble with my DNS
[15:20] <mang0> With firefox on ubuntu, is there a way to play quicktime movies? I've got vlc installed, and mplayer, but I get "plugin missing" if I try to view a page with quicktime embedded on it...I can play them when they're downloaded though... :/
[15:20] <tetsuo--> ikonia: There is no site configured at this address. Server srv021059 | Host
[15:21] <ikonia> tetsuo--: that sounds like the site is down, or using a different address than the other users, and the other users are using a cached version
[15:21] <xangua> mang0: installed restricted extras¿
[15:21] <Sidewinder1> !flash | mang0
[15:21] <domedagen> ionite: Calender could be Google Calender and files could be dropbox
[15:21] <mang0> Sidewinder1: I've got flash.
[15:21] <mang0> xangua: What're they?
[15:21] <xangua> what does flash has todo with quicktime videos¿
[15:21] <mang0> yeah
[15:21] <tetsuo--> ikonia: can i clear the local dns cache? i think its the other way around
[15:22] <xangua> Sidewinder1: (10:21:58) xangua: what does flash has todo with quicktime videos¿
[15:22] <ikonia> tetsuo--: do you run the local dns server ?
[15:22] <tetsuo--> ikonia: eg an account that never visited the site before got on it just now
[15:22] <tetsuo--> tetsuo--: all ubuntu defaults for networking
[15:22] <kasi_> how do I make 'service autofs stop' permanent? It starts up after every boot. There's no autofs in /etc/rc*.d
[15:22] <tetsuo--> ikonia: to you :P
[15:22] <xangua> mang0: incluide closed videocodecs
[15:22] <ikonia> tetsuo--: but do you control the local dns server ?
[15:22] <htlm> ionite you want pretty desktop then got for the 3d effects  all distros have it, call compiz... but on a netbook be warn that the kde is nice , but must have some decent horsepower behind it.. it run properly...  or it will lock up on you nettop
[15:22] <domedagen> ionite: Zoho could also be an alternative
[15:23] <tetsuo--> ikonia: if ubuntu comes with one and it is enabled by default then yes, i have root rights
[15:23] <KM0201> htlm: that's his issue no horsepower
[15:23] <ikonia> tetsuo--: no, it doesn't
[15:23] <Sidewinder1> mang0, xangua Probably nothin' 'twas just a suggestion.. Guess I've been on here way too long.. :-(
[15:23] <domedagen> KM0201: ?
[15:23]  * mang0 puts Sidewinder1 to bed
[15:23] <mang0> ;)
[15:23] <ikonia> tetsuo--: if you don't control the local dns server, you'll just have to wait for the cache to expire
[15:23] <ikonia> tetsuo--: you could clear the browser cache if you think that's worth while
[15:23] <tetsuo--> ikonia: i know in windows dns queries get cached locally for a few days, and you use a dns purge command to get rid of them
[15:24] <ikonia> tetsuo--: works slightly different
[15:24]  * Sidewinder1 Hiding in the corner, again.
[15:24] <mang0> xangua: I can play .mov through vlc when it's downloaded, but I can't seem to get it to work with firefox :C
[15:24] <domedagen> ionite: What is your current status?
[15:24]  * lotuspsychje throws cookies in the corner
[15:24] <pythonsnake> Does using DNS like google's one protect me and speed up my internet ?
[15:24] <ionite> domedagen: i'm looking and reading up on all the myraids of environments. i'm now at jollicloud
[15:24] <ikonia> pythonsnake: no
[15:24] <tetsuo--> ikonia:  can you access the site? http://www.darkorbit.com/
[15:25] <ikonia> tetsuo--: I can
[15:25] <htlm> mang0 get the vlc boswer plugin
[15:25] <tetsuo--> so it has to be local, clearning cache made no difference
[15:25] <ikonia> tetsuo--: it can still be remove,
[15:25] <mang0> htlm: It exists? I must google this >:)
[15:25] <edbian> pythonsnake: It makes things a bit faster (because google dns is very fast).  Protect you from what?
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> pythonsnake: if it's closer, then yes
[15:25] <escott> pythonsnake, google claims it will be faster, and i do believe they try and prevent malicious sites from appearing in the dns, but just read on their webiste
[15:25] <ikonia> tetsuo--: on the user thats failing, type the following command in the terminal "nslookup www.darkorbit.com"
[15:25] <ikonia> tetsuo--: tell me what it returns
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> pythonsnake: you can use namebench to test known DNS servers for speed
[15:26] <tetsuo--> Server:		<IP_ADDRESS> Address:	<IP_ADDRESS>#53  Non-authoritative answer: Name:	www.darkorbit.com Address: <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:26] <tetsuo--> ikonia: ^^^
[15:26] <mang0> htlm: Where is vlc stored? I can't see .vlc or .videolan?
[15:27] <ikonia> tetsuo--: ask the user to put http://<IP_ADDRESS> in the browser, what does he get
[15:27] <htlm> ActionParsnip  font you ever sleep ?  or are you  a Linux zombie? ..)
[15:27] <tetsuo--> ikonia: There is no site configured at this address. Server srv022081 | Host
[15:27] <tknudsen> good morning. is there a channel for ubuntu testing. My ISP (Comcast) curiously lets me download only 500M of files only with ubuntu and beta in the name.
[15:27] <htlm> (htlm) ActionParsnip  dont you ever sleep ?  or are you  a Linux zombie? ..) *
[15:27] <tetsuo--> ikonia: interestingly, a different srv number
[15:27] <ikonia> tetsuo--: ok - so it looks like it's a loadbalancer issue at the isp's end
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> htlm: I work 12 hour shifts, the an hour on the bus home, then chillin and sleeping. 4 days of that then 4 off where I pop in and out
[15:28] <japro> ok, this is really starting to piss me off, i blacklisted nvidia and it gets stuck the same way just that the splash screen is messed up also
[15:28] <jnix> that shold fix it heh
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> htlm: AndChat lets me IRC on my phone easily :)
[15:28] <a4> im trying to compile an application and it says it requires glib 2.6 or greater and that i dont have glib... How do i get it? sudo apt-get install glib was a no-go
[15:28] <auronandace> mang0: the .name folders in your home directory only contains settings files (not the application itself)
[15:28] <tetsuo--> ikonia: if you reload it a few times does it stop working for you at any reload?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> japro: blacklist nouveau too and you will use the nv driver
[15:28] <htlm> mang0 check to see if you install vlc and vlc plugins that go along with it
[15:29] <ikonia> tetsuo--: no, because it's cached in my browser the content
[15:29] <mang0> auronandace: Ah, I see. Am a linux noob :3. Where are the applications stored then?
[15:29] <tetsuo--> ikonia: ok, and you get the same ip adres?
[15:29] <ikonia> tetsuo--: totally, that's why I think it's a remote load balancer
[15:29] <auronandace> mang0: mostly /usr/bin/
[15:29] <tknudsen> is there a channel for ubuntu testing?
[15:30] <pythonsnake> yes
[15:30] <auronandace> mang0: some files are stored in /etc/ too
[15:30] <pythonsnake> #ubuntu+1 tknudsen
[15:30] <mang0> auronandace: Oh okay. Thanks :)
[15:30] <tknudsen> tnx, python
[15:30] <auronandace> np
[15:30] <mang0> htlm: Ah, have just installed the plugin ;)
[15:30] <pythonsnake> tknudsen: you
[15:30] <pythonsnake> tknudsen: yw
[15:30] <tetsuo--> ikonia: OK thanks, then i give up and will see what happens in 2 weeks when the DNS cert is supposed to expire
[15:30] <Paulo39> hello guys. a few days ago, my ubuntu crashed and i made a hard reset, then on the restarting it went to initramfs and was unable to mount all directories like you can see in this photo: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1890161/Imagens/ubuntuBootError.jpg
[15:31] <japro> ActionParsnip, i assume the source of all this trouble is that i have cuda drivers installed and when it installed a new kernel it didn't automatically update the kernel module... but it seems unreasonable that i have to fix this by going through a live cd
[15:31] <auronandace> !programs | mang0
[15:31] <ionite> thanks everyone for ur help!!! :)))
[15:31] <Paulo39> i tried do boot with the previous kernel, but i get the same error
[15:31] <mang0> >.>
[15:31] <auronandace> !software | mang0
[15:32] <htlm> mang0 you got what need?
[15:32] <mang0> Yeah, great! Thanks ;)
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> japro: what are cube drivers?
[15:32] <xodarap> hbase
[15:32] <ActionParsnip> japro: cuda, sorry
[15:33] <japro> ActionParsnip, nvidia drivers that you need for cuda development (running stuff on the gpu)
[15:33] <jnix> sorry bout that folks
[15:33] <jnix> downloaded an irssi script and didn't bother to check first
[15:33] <lotuspsychje> can a user set permission to his /home dir so root cant read content in folder?
[15:34] <dr_willis> lotuspsychje: :  he could password protect/encrypt stuff. but  how yo
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> japro: I see, not heard of that
[15:34] <dr_willis> lotuspsychje:  but otherweise no
[15:34] <Paulo39> hello guys. a few days ago, my ubuntu crashed and i made a hard reset, then on the restarting it went to initramfs and was unable to mount all directories like you can see in this photo: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1890161/Imagens/ubuntuBootError.jpg
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lotuspsychje: root can do anything so I doubt it
[15:34] <Paulo39> i tried do boot with the previous kernel, but i get the same error
[15:34] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis: what about other users then root? can one set home dir to unreadable?
[15:34] <edbian> Paulo39: It's upside down
[15:34] <dr_willis> lotuspsychje:  yes
[15:35] <dr_willis> !permissions | lotuspsychje
[15:35] <lotuspsychje> tnx
[15:35] <htlm> mang0 did you get it to work
[15:35] <megatr0n> Hi there
[15:35] <htlm> hi
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Paulo39: if you boot to liveCD then tell it to boot the first drive, does it boot?
[15:35] <escott> lotuspsychje, ecryptfs is part of the standard ubuntu install. just click the "encrypt the home directory" of course when you login you loop mount the encrypted system and root can read it then
[15:35] <mang0> htlm: Just checked it, ana apparantly not :(. The plugin installed, but it's just showing black where the video is supposed to go...
[15:35] <megatr0n> hey i'm gonna install the ubuntu 11.10,is that a good idea ? I mean is it bette than 10.04?
[15:35] <Paulo39> edbian: oh, sorry. if you download and open it, it will be right
[15:36] <Gentoo64> megatr0n, its not officially out yet so its in testing
[15:36] <dr_willis> megatr0n:  depedns on your needs.
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> megatr0n: its in beta so venture at your own risk. support and questions in #ubuntu+1
[15:36] <edbian> Paulo39: :P

[15:38] <Gentoo64> megatr0n, so many people have problems when upgrading. if its all fine theres no need at all theres nothing amazing in the newer ones
[15:39] <htlm> mang0 yes
[15:39] <japro> well, it seems like the graphics driver isn't the problem... even with nv it just gets stuck int he splash screen
[15:39] <dr_willis> henningvis:  theres various -dev packages you need for the devlopment files to compile things
 it does need
[15:39] <dr_willis> oops that was for a4  :)
[15:39] <mang0> htlm: Yes what? ;)
[15:39] <japro> if it at least would display some sort of error message
[15:39] <dr_willis> a4:  whats the program you are trying to compile?

[15:40] <a4> im trying to install the irssi IRC client dr_willis
[15:40] <mang0> htlm: GoToBed. I'm going to eat some dinner :)
[15:40] <Gentoo64> a4, is it not in software centre?
[15:40] <mang0> Thanks for your help!
[15:40] <escott> !info libglib2.0-0 | a4
[15:40] <dr_willis> a4:  You need one thats newer then the version in the repos?
[15:41] <rkhshm> is there a way to find out if there are disk faults?
[15:41] <rkhshm> on my builds I"m getting IO error
[15:41] <japro> fuck it, i'm gonna reinstall it
[15:41] <dr_willis> a4:  use sudo apt-get builddeps irssi   command   to pull in all needed developer files for it.
[15:41] <dr_willis> or was it build-deps
[15:41] <a4> I have a fully updated 11.04 dr_willis and its telling me i dont have glib period
[15:41] <Hedgehog456> Is the ubuntu-desktop package essential?
[15:41] <escott> rkhshm, disk-utility or smartmontools
[15:41] <dr_willis> a4:  the DEV files are not installed by default.
[15:41] <oCean> japro: control your language here, please
[15:41] <escott> rkhshm, the gui disk-utility is probably easier to use just click on the drive then on "SMART status"
[15:42] <trident523> rkhshm: if your drive has S.M.A.R.T you can use smartmontools
[15:42] <dr_willis> a4:  you will need to install several things to compile stuff besides just the 'build-essential' package.
[15:42] <Sidewinder1> rkhshm, "Disk Utility" under System-->Administration?
[15:42] <rkhshm> trident523: yes i have S.M.A.R.T
[15:42] <rkhshm> its enabled
[15:42] <japro> oCean, ok, "screw this" then

[15:42] <StijnH> Hello. What is different with the ubuntu-11.04-alternate downloads?
[15:42] <Paulo39> ActionParsnip: i tried tell him to boot from hard disc (from LiveCD) and start and give me this error: The installer encountered an unrecouverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again
[15:42] <Gentoo64> StijnH, some are basic installers for low ram
[15:43] <trident523> StijnH: they do not boot into a live enviroment. they offer a text baised installer, and alternative installs.
[15:43] <xangua> !alternate | StijnH
[15:43] <a4> according to terminal "builddeps" is an invalid operation dr_willis
[15:43] <StijnH> Thank you all.
[15:44] <lotuspsychje> is it possible yet to move unity bar to bottom?
[15:44] <dr_willis> a4:  i said it may be build-deps. try tab completion :)
u mean u want to install from usb disk ,and update during the installation?
[15:44] <dr_willis> may be build-dep also.. not on a box to test right now
[15:44] <dr_willis> a4:  is theres some reason you need a newer version of irssi then whats in the repos?
[15:45] <RobinJ_> megatr0n: no, i mean i siumply cant connect to my WPA protected wireless network anymore. when i try to boot from a usb drive it works, but not from my current installation
[15:45] <Gentoo64> newer = better
[15:45] <a4> i guess i just forgot to check the repos before downloading it dr_willis.. build-dep worked thank you
[15:45] <shawn_> can someone help me? im kinda having trouble with realtek alc888
[15:45] <shawn_> it only plays through sub not the speakers
[15:45] <henningvis> any guru to help newby with  login authentication.. removed Pam Face authentication and now it does not want to accept my password:  i get this

[15:47] <lotuspsychje> RobinJ: did you try on WEP?
[15:47] <rkhshm> trident523: disk utility reports i have a few bad sectors.. would running a fdisk on it help or should i run a self assement on the fileystem and let it auto-clean?
[15:47] <megatr0n> Hey , I'm here and i just want to say : days without windows is perfect ! I love ubuntu . awsome job !
[15:47] <shawn_> Can someone help me? zmy sound is coming through my subwoofer on the bottom on my laptop not the normal speakers
[15:47] <a4> ill try weechat too then dr_willis, is there any thing you know of off hand that i should get besides build-essential in order to compile in the future?
[15:47] <qrq> Are ubuntu  backports packages less stable?
[15:48] <trident523> rkhshm: I don't know much else about drive saftey, but I'd assume if it's hardware bad sectors your drive is failing.
[15:48] <a4> they arent fully tested yet qrq
[15:48] <biopyte> hi, i cant boot  11.04  on my eepc 901 using a startup usb-stick, however, it boots nice on my lenovo t61.
[15:48] <knightrage> hey guys... what's this mean? x server error on restart of machine. "(EE) RADEON(0): No modes." http://pastebin.com/NEqJc4E3
[15:48] <biopyte> 11.04 does not support eeepc 901?
[15:49] <dr_willis> a4:  totally depends on what you are compilign
[15:49] <trident523> rkhshm: you can scan and fix it, and it might just be OS based.
[15:49] <qrq> How about proposed packages? :D
[15:51] <a4> those are mostly beta versions qrq which are more so unstable then backports
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> biopyte: what error u get on netbook?
[15:51] <rkhshm> trident523: how do i do that.. Because I suspected a HD to be failing. now when i open disk-utility -> SMART DATA , i see i have 513 bad sectors and i see it reports saying.."Failure is a sign of imminent disk failure"
[15:51] <rkhshm> :(
[15:52] <a4> i use backports without any problems so far qrq but I wouldnt used proposed
[15:52] <escott> rkhshm, there won't be a software fix. you need to order some new hardware
[15:53] <rkhshm> escott: unfortunately yes.. I figured it out.
[15:53] <trident523> rkhshm: backup first. then check out fsck.
[15:53] <biopyte> lotuspsychje, no error, it just boots from the hdd, disregarding the BIOS setting to boot from the usb drive.
[15:54] <biopyte> no problem when booting on th et61
[15:54] <biopyte> t61
[15:54] <japro> so what is the proper way to handle non-ubuntu nvidia drivers in case the kernel gets updated?
[15:54] <aztek> any body know how to download video youtube in ubuntu?
[15:54] <dr_willis> japro:  you will need to reinstall them by hand
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> biopyte: what hd inside?
[15:55] <shawn_> what should be in the /etc/modules?
[15:55] <biopyte> SSD

[15:59] <nilzie> that just removes the program, not all of the extra stuff it installed
[16:00] <mang0> nilzie: Or open syanaptic package manager, locate the program, then right click > mark for complete removal or something

 i don't like the newest version ,cause less thing i can change .
[16:07] <JLuc> then i switched off the computer
[16:07] <SIFTU> timetravel: pretty much any monitor will work.. you sometimes get a little weirdness with TV resolutions
[16:07] <JLuc> and when coming back
[16:07] <JLuc> i couldnt boot on ubuntu again
[16:07] <JLuc> all options fails
[16:08] <JLuc> only 7 works - at least
[16:08] <biopyte> yep, just the plain gnome desktop
in the old version before 10.04 ,u can change in the menu ,but after 10.04 , u can't do that anymore
[16:08] <timetravel> siftu > with this old crt, i'm only getting 1024x760 .. :(
[16:08] <Headcase_Fargone> Hi folks.  Need to know where mount point configuration for boot is stored.  I have two drives, /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdc1 that are mounting as /media/Storage1 and /media/Storage2 respectively.  I can umount and re-mount them in reverse (the way I want them), but upon reboot they're back to the way they were originally.
[16:08] <__Shawn__> Hello, I boot the Ubuntu 10.04 Live CD but I can't activate wireless. It worked with 9.04. Can you help me to solve my problem ?
[16:08] <JLuc> is there something i can do to recover ubuntu ?
[16:08] <henningvis> Pleaze somebody...anybody--how do i reset logon authentication to default settings? it s currently calling for" henningvis-Ubuntu sudo: pam_sm_authenticate: Called"
[16:08] <Headcase_Fargone> Basically I want to make /dev/sdc1 default to /media/Storage1 and /dev/sdb1 default to /media/Storage2
[16:09] <SIFTU> timetravel: could be a number of things. GPU driver, or you have to input the resolutions manually..
[16:09] <graingert> JLuc: what do you see on grub?
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> JLuc: how did you install ubuntu? did you use Wubi? Did you resize your NTFS and install Ubuntu there?
[16:09] <birvis> Headcase_Fargone, check /etc/fstab file
[16:09] <JLuc> i resized ntdfs to free space and installed an iso
[16:10] <JLuc> then i upgraded what needed to and installed a couple of apps
[16:10] <graingert> JLuc: k what do you see when you get to grub?
[16:10] <JLuc> i see options
[16:10] <JLuc> ubuntu
[16:10] <ActionParsnip> JLuc: you can boot to liveCD and reinstate Grub2 there
[16:10] <JLuc> ubuntu failsafe
[16:10] <JLuc> windows
after changing ,u can use this command to ensure the menu won't appearce again: sudo unlink /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop
[16:10] <graingert> JLuc: okay so you can see the ubuntu option - can you boot that
[16:10] <JLuc> and more from mageia previous install
[16:10] <ActionParsnip> JLuc: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/09/live-usb-sticking-grub-2-video/
[16:11] <graingert> JLuc: and press a key eg up on your dpad
[16:11] <graingert> ActionParsnip: his grub is working
[16:11] <JLuc> if i boot it brings a black screen
[16:11] <graingert> JLuc: do you get a splash?
[16:11] <JLuc> sometime i get to a terminal
[16:11] <shawn_> can someone help me?... i downloaded gnome alsa mixer says my sound card is realtek alc888 but in the normal alsa mixer just says hda intel
[16:11] <JLuc> no splash
[16:11] <shawn_> for my sound card
[16:11] <graingert> JLuc: try using nosplash and verbose kernel options
[16:11] <JLuc> how do i ?
[16:11] <graingert> JLuc: grub should give some help text on how to edit options
[16:12] <JLuc> hmmm ok
[16:12] <graingert> then replace the word quiet for verbose
[16:12] <graingert> and add nosplash just after verbose
[16:12] <Headcase_Fargone> birvis, fstab did the trick.  Thanks mate
[16:12] <JLuc> i shall try
[16:12] <graingert> kk
[16:12] <JLuc> or wait for the oniric
u mean u get a blank screen after boot ?
[16:12] <shawn_> can someone help me real quick?.
[16:12] <graingert> JLuc: google about for grub2 help
[16:12] <JLuc> yes black
[16:12] <graingert> !question | shawn_
[16:13] <graingert> JLuc: it's probably not something that will be fixed in oneric
[16:13] <shawn_> i did ask lol
[16:13] <pythonsnake> how to remove rpeo
just open a terminal and try this : sudo rm -rfv /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[16:13] <shawn_> i just wanna know if its loading my sound module wrong
[16:13] <graingert> pythonsnake: ppa-purge
[16:13] <shawn_> says in gnome alsa mixer sound card realtek alc888
[16:13] <shawn_> but in the normal alsa mixer say hda intel
[16:13] <graingert> !patience | shawn_
[16:13] <JLuc> i'd prefer to avoid terminal hacks
[16:14] <JLuc> thats why ubuntu
[16:14] <graingert> JLuc: that's unlikely to help
[16:14] <graingert> megatr0n: we don't know if it's X yet
[16:14] <graingert> megatr0n: and why -r on a file?
[16:14] <JLuc> what would be the way to unistall as clean as possible the grup and start options
[16:15] <JLuc> si as to recover a clean state and start again
[16:15] <shawn_> can someone tell me why in gnome alsa mixer it says my sound card is realtek alc888 which is correct but in the normal alsa mixer it says hda intel??
[16:15] <Boom_Farmer> shawn_: Do you get sound when you try to play music or a video?
[16:15] <shawn_> only subwoofer
just a hobby :P i like force delete .
[16:15] <JLuc> i think thats safe
[16:15] <JLuc> clean uninstall grub i mean
[16:15] <biopyte> megatr0n, ok
[16:16] <muzero> hi there
[16:16] <shawn_> and i went to /etc/module it says its only loading lp which im not sure if thats correct due to im very new to ubuntu
[16:16] <JLuc> ok i got answers with google, sorry
[16:16] <graingert> anyone know where I can grab apt logs?
[16:16] <graingert> /var/log/apt contains tem and history both are empty
[16:16] <__Shawn__> can someone help me to activite wireless on ubuntu 10.04 ?
 u mean got it ? succeed?
[16:16] <Boom_Farmer> shawn_: It seems that the realtek ALC888 chip is integrated and part of the Intel HDA chipset.
[16:16] <lotuspsychje> howto launch driver license test cdrom with run.exe in natty?
[16:16] <zykotick9> graingert, check /var/log/dpkg.log
[16:16] <oCean> megatr0n: -r has nothing to do with force delete, the -r means recursive and should be used very carefully
[16:16] <shawn_> Yeh but why am i only getting sound from only sub?
[16:16] <escott> shawn_, that is normal, most module loading is done on the fly by udev
[16:17] <arooni-mobile> whats the best program to update dyndns.org of my new ip
[16:17] <Boom_Farmer> shawn_: Probably because you're only getting one channel of output.
[16:17] <Sidewinder1> lotuspsychje, From wine, perhaps.
[16:17] <shawn_> is there away to change the channels?
u r right !
[16:18] <Boom_Farmer> shawn_: OPen up yuor volume control mixer applet, and check that all channels are unmuted.
[16:18] <lotuspsychje> Sidewinder1: anything like deamon tools for ubuntu could mount that ?
i just check it ,u r right buddy !
[16:18] <graingert> zykotick9: that doesn't show what I am looking for, to be clear I am having this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/859004
[16:18] <escott> shawn_, if the sub is connected to a different jack than the speakers you might try the hda_analyzer tool. perhaps the output is being sent to the wrong jack
[16:18] <shawn_> well doesnt have channels just has master etc and there all on 100%
[16:18] <Sidewinder1> lotuspsychje, I've no clue; humblest apologies.
[16:18] <JLuc> its very busy here
[16:19] <JLuc> thanks and good bye
[16:19] <lotuspsychje> Sidewinder1: tnx anyway m8
[16:19] <escott> shawn_, and yes your system is intel hda (which is a rather general standard) and the chipset is realtek

[16:32] <sosaited> Though this is the biggest surprise I could have gotten. As I always heard (apparently misunderstood) that Linux had iptables which was a firewall (and consequently blocked any incoming stuff), and firestarter/ufw were just GUI to add your rules and monitor connections
[16:32] <llutz> sosaited: theres no need to block something incoming, if theres nothing listening.
[16:33] <dr_willis> sosaited:  its never been stated it blocks by default.
[16:33] <samd> sosaited: thats right, iptables is the firewall built into the linux kernel and you can add rules (block/allow) ports using either ufw or firestarter, there's just no need to do that since you have no process listening by default
[16:34] <dr_willis> sosaited:  windows takes a totally opposite type approach to firewalls.
[16:34] <billet75> I got this Error: cryptsetup: evms_activate is not available fresh install any ideas on how to resolve?
[16:35] <dr_willis> I just love playing a full screen game for a few hrs.. then exit. and seeing a windows 'allow this game through the firewall' dialog..  :) glad it wasent some nasty program
[16:35] <sosaited> dr_willis, That is what I am confused about. A default Windows Xp with no firewall and a ubuntu default without any frontend to iptables are different from a security standpoint how?
[16:35] <dr_willis> sosaited:  xp has serviecs listening by default. netbios for one..
[16:35] <dr_willis> sosaited:  also windows firewalling is often about blocking stuff from going Out..
[16:36] <dr_willis> ie: malware that may infect the rest of the lan.
[16:36] <sosaited> dr_willis, Hmm. Thank you.
[16:36] <dr_willis> the various iptables docs/guides/tutoals are worth a read. if interested.
[16:36] <dr_willis> i rarely use the firewall features of windows or linux.
[16:37] <KIAaze> is XP vulnerable by default because of netbios?
[16:37] <KIAaze> how big of a risk is netbios?
[16:37] <dr_willis> KIAaze:  i think its been patched up now a days. there were some exploits on it ages ago
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> KIAaze: if you don't use it, disable it
[16:37] <SIFTU> any service listening on any OS is a potentential security risk
[16:37] <dr_willis> KIAaze:  the 'shields up' web site had some info on the topic i recall.. ages ago.
[16:38] <irv___> join #diaspora
[16:38] <KIAaze> is netbios similar to telnel or ssh? i.e. for remote access?
[16:38] <dr_willis> KIAaze:  its samba :)  how windows does shares.
[16:38] <KIAaze> ah ok. :)
[16:38] <dr_willis> port # err.. i forget. :)
[16:39] <linty> does anyone use Canonicals Landscape Project?
[16:42] <Boom_Farmer> irv___: Can they help me with setting up tun/tap network interfaces so that I can talk to a Diaspora pod running in a VM on the computer that I am trying to access it from?
[16:44] <dr_willis> Boom_Farmer:  what VM?
[16:44] <Boom_Farmer> dr_willis: QEMU, using the AQEMU GUI, and a 10.04 host and VM.
[16:45] <dr_willis> somthing ive not used befor. I just toy with vbox.
[16:45] <Boom_Farmer> Would you recommend virtualbox for this application? Is it easier to set up a tun/tap interface using vbox?
[16:47] <dr_willis> I jist normally set vbox where the guest machines show up on my lan as  a real machine would. same ip range.
[16:47] <dr_willis> ie: <IP_ADDRESS>   and  so on. :) i forget what setting is called in the network settings in vbox.
[16:47] <dr_willis> then my router or whatever can port forward to that ip#
[16:47] <webchatterr> ubottu
[16:48] <Boom_Farmer> Ah, see, i don't have access to the router, and would not want it in any case.
[16:48] <dr_willis> if you are not comming in from the internet.  thenyou wouldnt need to mess with the router.
[16:49] <Boom_Farmer> I'm just trying to talk to the guest from the host, accessing an HTTP server there.
[16:49] <timetravel> noob question: if my Windows in Vbox runs spyware, will Vbox & iptables just let all that spy-traffic through?
[16:49] <Boom_Farmer> ubottu: !bot | webchatterr
[16:49] <dr_willis> Boom_Farmer:   should work in vbox. but no idea about tun and stuff. ive never needed to mess with them in vbox.
[16:50] <a4> dr_willis i installed weechat but it wont open via terminal and i dont see it in my applications list :\
[16:50] <neil_m> vbox for the win
[16:50] <dr_willis> timetravel:  by default vbox is on its own private lan. but yes. it could send naughty stuff out to the internet.
[16:50] <Boom_Farmer> But you were connecting to the VM buy going from your computer through the router back to your computer and into the VM. I want to cut the router step out.
[16:50] <dr_willis> a4:  weechat(tab)   to get its name
[16:50] <dr_willis> a4:  it dosent have a menu item. and you will want to check its docs/guides
[16:51] <Boom_Farmer> a4: try running which weechat, then running one of those files.
[16:51] <timetravel> @drWillis > So IPtables just opens outgoign ports whenever an application asks for it?
[16:51] <dr_willis> timetravel:  they are not closed to begin with.. so thats not correct.
[16:51] <dr_willis> an app opens a port..  befor that - the port is not open or closed.. its a blank wall. Not a locked or closed or open door. :)
[16:52] <dr_willis> i think thats a good metaphore.
[16:52] <Boom_Farmer> Hokay, breakfasttime.
[16:52] <timetravel> so: everythign goes out, nothing is listening to incoming stuff?
[16:52] <dr_willis> theres no default rules on outgoing traffic that im aware of.
[16:52] <Sidewinder1> timetravel, Sounds like my bank account.
[16:53] <dr_willis> you install the ssh server. you dont need to do anything to allow it out.
[16:53] <timetravel> heheh
[16:53] <timetravel> why are you mentioning ssh server?
[16:54] <dr_willis> as an example service
[16:54] <timetravel> ah ok
[16:54] <webchatterr> Boom_Farmer: how to know package info using ubottu
[16:54] <dr_willis> given ssh is perhaps the most common service installed on a box by most people. :)
[16:54] <webchatterr> ubottu: help
[16:54] <a4> eh so are there any programs that will automatically organize ubuntus desktop?
[16:55] <dr_willis> webchatterr:  do a /msg ubottu  help
[16:55] <dr_willis> a4:  organize in what way?
[16:56] <a4> say i delete a file the files behind it automatically close the gap left from the deleted file dr_willis, much like wind0ze
[16:56] <pythonsnake> rosalinda is spamming porn
[16:56] <Sidewinder1> webchatterr, Or, perhaps better yet, open a dialog window with ubottu, but please don't abuse her. :D
[16:56] <pythonsnake> /ignore rosalinda
[16:56] <webchatterr> lol
[16:56] <neil_m> :)
[16:56] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: thanks
[16:56] <oCean> pythonsnake: please report such issues in #ubuntu-ops
[16:57] <timetravel> DrWillis > Sosaito mentioned earlier Firestarter .. if I install that, will it change my FW rules? (like windows FW's do) or will it just be a gui and do nothing until i make changes?
[16:57] <dr_willis> a4:  behind it? behind what?  the file manager icons auto -rearange for me as i delete things.. the desktop icons have settings for that  i recall.. i dont put icons on my desktop much any more. :)
[16:57] <dr_willis> timetravel:  if you make rules.. it will.
[16:57] <pythonsnake> oCean: ok
[16:57] <dr_willis> timetravel:  it does nothng by default that ieve ever seen
[16:57] <timetravel> great :)
[16:57] <a4> the default desktop on 11.04 leaves your files where they were originally placed unless you right click then press organize
[16:57] <a4> dr_willis ^
[16:58] <timetravel> Is taht the FW-gui you would recommend? Or is there another one i should check?
[16:58] <dr_willis> timetravel:  rember windows does the opposite approace blocks and nags by default on a per app basis.. Linux fw's do not work on a per app basis. but on a per-PORT basis
[16:58] <dr_willis> timetravel:  it all depends on your needs.
[16:58] <dr_willis> a4:  thats a feature... :)
[16:59] <a4> its a "feature" i dont want dr_willis, it makes my desktop a mess
[16:59] <timetravel> my needs are: a gui that a noob understands, but not something that will makes automatic changes
[16:59] <zs1otb> i have a jack server error in ubuntu 11.04. "Cannot lock down memory..." any ideas
[17:00] <dr_willis> a4:  thers prob some way to make them auto arange. but its not somthign ive ever bothered with. or wanted.. and it will be a moot point when gnome-3 and unity replace gnome2 i imagine. You may want to check the gnome forums and askubuntu.com to see if theres a way to auto-arange icons
[17:00] <dr_willis> icons on the desktop = a mess. :)
[17:00] <dr_willis> gotta love sitting down at a friends windows machine and they have 200 icons on their desktop..
[17:00] <a4> i saw it mentioned on ubuntu brainstorm but there werent any responses or votes for it -_-
[17:01] <c-beams> I'm trying to create an image of a 1TB hard drive. using both dd (with various bs settings) and partclone, they start fast and get continuously slower. why is this? how can i fix it?
[17:01] <zs1otb> i have a jack server error in ubuntu 11.04. "Cannot lock down memory..." any ideas
[17:01] <ghabit> Hello. Explain me please what actually means 'proposed' updates?
[17:01] <dr_willis> c-beams:  monitor dmesg output as they work.. there could be some bad parts of the hd they are having to re-read
[17:01] <a4> i use the desktop so i can keep my panels clean plus its harder to use panel icons since im on a laptop with no mouse so its more difficult to get the pointer over them, and im not a big fan of menus or using terminal unless its for actual commands
[17:02] <arjun> hey all, what do i need to do before installing a sound card
[17:02] <c-beams> dr_willis, could you give me more detailed instructions please?
[17:03] <zs1otb> Good day all. I have an error connecting to the jack server in ubuntu 11.04. Any person will some help?
[17:03] <A_J> hey all, what do i need to do before installing a sound card

[17:04] <a4> is ubuntu going to switch to gnome3 with v11.10 dr_willis?
[17:04] <dr_willis> c-beams:  see what 'dmesg' says in the terminal when it slows down.
[17:04] <dr_willis> a4:  it  has unity by default. and gnome-shell  in the repos... both run on top of gnome-3
[17:05] <A_J> dr_willis: can you look at my question, it's a simple one
[17:05] <c-beams> dr_willis, it is getting slower all the time
[17:05] <Sidewinder1> !pastebinit > henningvis
[17:05] <a4> so ubuntu 11.04 is already using gnome3?
[17:05] <zs1otb> Good day all. I have an error connecting to the jack server in ubuntu 11.04. Any person will some help? Error says "cannot lock down memory area (cannot allocate memory)
[17:05] <timetravel> a4 > nope
[17:05]  * Sidewinder1 Sighs..
[17:05] <Mikey^> a4: Ubuntu ueses unity
[17:06] <ubunutu_fu_cker> hey SterniX
[17:06] <marcus--> my eth0 and eth1 keeps swapping when PXE booting with NFS root, so the mount fails.
[17:06] <dr_willis> unity runs on top of gnome. :)
[17:06] <SterniX> hey ubunutu_fu_cker
[17:06] <Mikey^> dr_willis: yes
[17:06] <a4> im not using unity im using classic so im using gnome2? or gnome3?
[17:06] <Kindari> How would I check that an additional ipv6 address is loaded and ready to use? after performing "ip addr add 2600:3c01::20:5000/64 dev eth0" I tried pinging the address and got nothing.
[17:06] <SterniX> how are u looser
[17:06] <A_J> hey all, what do i need to do before installing a sound card. Just Pop it in ?
[17:06] <dr_willis> I thought 11.04 was using gnome-3 in part.
[17:06] <dr_willis> but not gnome-shell.
[17:06] <looser> how to turn off a pc that runs ubnutu 12?
[17:07] <dr_willis> im on the beta now. :) so it dosent matter to me much
[17:07] <zs1otb> A_ as far as I am aware yes just pop it in
[17:07] <benoliver999> A-J, yeah
[17:07] <A_J> ok ty zs1otb
[17:07] <dr_willis> looser:  shutdown command,  or the various menu items.. is one way

[17:08] <henningvis> how can i reset login authentication ...after i deleted a program it does not accept my password : I get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/696763/
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> looser: ubuntu 12?
[17:09] <pythonsnake> wow
[17:09] <pythonsnake> lots of ban over there
[17:09] <occam1> Hi! I am writing a server program (using C) that executes a script when the client asks for it, but I am not sure how to do to see the exit of that execution in the client side or, at least, to know if the execution was successful or not.. any ideas??
[17:09] <oCean> pythonsnake: stop the random/offtopic comments, you know that
[17:09] <pythonsnake> oCean: sorry
[17:10] <SterniX> what is the new release of Ubuntu
[17:10] <SterniX> and where can i get one?
[17:10] <Mikey^> occam1: #C, maybe
[17:10] <occam1> can I redirect the script's output to a socket or something like that??
[17:10] <oCean> SterniX: Oneiric/11.10 is not yet released (still beta). Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion
[17:10] <pythonsnake> !give SterniX 11.04
[17:10] <pythonsnake> !11.10 | SterniX
[17:10] <henningvis> nobody for help with authentication .please this is my 4th attemp
[17:11] <dr_willis> SterniX:  if you have to ask.. you should not be usiong the beta version i imagine. :)
[17:12] <CanadianPirate> Whats the command to change the mac address using ifconfig?
[17:12] <SterniX> beta version of what?!
[17:12] <dr_willis> henningvis:  have you tried somthing basic like booting a live cd, chrooting in, and reinstalling ubuntu-desktop package?
[17:13] <pythonsnake> how to connect konversation to my ssh weechat ?
[17:13] <oCean> SterniX: you asked about the new Ubuntu release. Latest stable is 11.04, the 11.10 is still beta
[17:13] <henningvis> dr willis it refers to pan-unix when i authenticate not unix
[17:13] <SterniX> aha 11.04
[17:13] <dr_willis> pythonsnake:  weechat is an irssi client.. and i thought konversation was also.. you dont normally connect the 2
[17:13] <SterniX> thats a 0.6 increment
[17:14] <dr_willis> henningvis:  no idea on it. but if you removed somthing.. and it removed other stuff.. reinstalling 'ubuntu-desktop' should pull back in  the needed packages.
[17:14] <pythonsnake> dr_willis: so how to connect weechat to my ssh weechat ?
[17:14] <dr_willis> SterniX:  version # is the date.
[17:14] <henningvis> command line for that please
[17:14] <cProg> Hi all
[17:14] <dr_willis> pythonsnake:  never needed to. or wanted to do that. I just use screen and connect to a single running weechat instance.. or use znc and have all irc clients connect to the znc server.
[17:14] <quqwerty> great, I've only installed xchat and now I'm here
[17:14] <SterniX> thanx dr_willis i just found something nu
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> SterniX: natty is current stable, Oneiric is current Beta
[17:15] <SterniX> thanx
[17:15] <henningvis> dr_willis can you give me a command line to reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[17:15] <Sidewinder1> SterniX, This explains a lot: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_%28operating_system%29
[17:16] <dr_willis> too late. :)
[17:16] <Sidewinder1> :-(
[17:16] <pythonsnake> BTW, iwhat is the best bouncer ?!
[17:16] <Mikey^> henningvis: apt-get reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[17:16] <henningvis> tx
[17:16] <dr_willis> pythonsnake:  depends on your needs. I only use znc
[17:16] <Mikey^> henningvis: use sudo before apt-get
[17:16] <pythonsnake> dr_willis: my needs is to connect to it safely
[17:16] <pythonsnake> and performance
[17:16] <cProg> My front microphone is not working. Anyone can help me to fix that problem? Thanks. I run ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS, and I have followed these instructions in vain: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure
[17:17] <The_BROS> What Visual Assistance for? Can I delete it from startup applications?
[17:17] <dr_willis> pythonsnake:  check the znc docs I guess...
[17:17] <pythonsnake> dr_willis: ok thanks
[17:17] <dr_willis> all my irc clients connect to my znc server via dyndns :)
[17:17] <dr_willis> so i can irc from my phone, come home, and be on the same channels and so on. You guys never see me leave.
[17:18] <Mikey^> The_BROS: yes you can, unless you need applications like magnifaction etc.
[17:18] <dr_willis> go upstairs.. or down.. irc chennals are all the same. :) znc is handy
[17:18] <timetravel> we will think you're crazy
[17:18] <c-beams> I'm trying to create an image of a 1TB hard drive. using both dd (with various bs settings) and partclone, they start fast and get continuously slower by 0.07MB/min every second (approx). why is this? how can i fix it?
[17:18] <dr_willis> c-beams:  you saw no error messages in the dmesg logs?
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> c-beams: look into the bs option
[17:18] <Mikey^> c-beams: maybe you can use the block size option
[17:18] <dr_willis> c-beams:  whats the exact dd line you are using?
[17:19] <The_BROS> Mikey^: thanx
[17:19] <dr_willis> c-beams:  if you use the ddrescue command (or was it dd_rescue) with the logging option. it can start from whhere it left off also. :)
[17:20] <pythonsnake> dr_willis: nice
[17:20] <c-beams> dd bs=16M if=/dev/sdb of=./backup.img
[17:20] <The_BROS> Mikey^: What services can I delete as well which are not nesesery?
[17:20] <Mikey^> c-beams: then it should write at 16 MB/s
[17:21] <dr_willis> http://www.gnu.org/s/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html
[17:21] <Mikey^> The_BROS: the ones you dont need...
[17:21] <dr_willis> c-beams:  how big is that hd you are imageing anyway?
[17:21] <Mikey^> The_BROS: Each one has a comment about it
[17:21] <c-beams> 1TB
[17:22] <dr_willis> isent 16mb a bit big for a BS option? i thought i read ages ago that anything over  a few K was overkill and could slow things down.
[17:24] <cProg> IRC Council: Hi
[17:24] <The_BROS> Anybody knows about integration of Google docs into Ubunto or about syncronisation with tomboy?
[17:25] <dr_willis> syncing what with tomboy?
[17:27] <The_BROS> dr_willis: google docs
[17:27] <dr_willis> tomboy just has its notes.. so i dont see how that would work. You could store stuff on your ubuntu one account i guess..
[17:28] <dr_willis> tomboy is so handy. but gets overlooked. :( - same with ubuntu one.
[17:29] <zs1otb> dr_willis do you have any knowledge on JACK server in Ubuntu 11.04?
[17:29] <dr_willis> zs1otb:  nope. never needed to use it.
[17:30] <dr_willis> theres some wiki pages on it i recall.. but wheni read up on it.. it had me all confused. :) im not even sure what it does exactly.
[17:30] <zs1otb> ok thanks... is there anybody here that knows jack server?
[17:30] <dr_willis> 'lets you do nifty sound stuff' :)
[17:30] <The_BROS> dr_willis: I m using dropbox
[17:30] <dr_willis> well night all..
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> dr_willis: dude, get tomdroid on your phone. Its read only but dead handy

[19:02] <urlin2u> maujhsn, not really that is a easy fix, the mbr can be reloaded with MS or grub, depending on what you need there. Seems daunting at first, but both MS and Ubuntu/Linux use that area for booting OS, so there is very good information on fixing if broke.

[19:25] <Polah> djskidd: We need details. That is a hugely vague question...
[19:25] <llutz> ujjain: no backups by default
[19:26] <ujjain> I destroyed my Ubuntu install again, using GUI mountmanager this tim that replaced all default things by UID's

[19:27] <djskidd> Polah: My sound does not function at all. I can adjust the volume and all, but I got the app DJPlay, ranit, and now Audacious freezes on my FLACs, and I can't get YouTube or anything to play audio. Help?
[19:27] <ujjain> Polah: Yeah, I will try that, just using default fstab setup
[19:27] <bastidrazor> ujjain: UUID's are a better option than /dev/sdXX since your UUID doesn't change
[19:27] <unk> bastidrazor: is there any problem in doing that??
[19:27] <Dookie> sound is overrated
[19:27] <bastidrazor> unk: it adds clutter to this already busy channel.
[19:27] <Polah> ujjain: There is no "default", it's configured on installation or when manually edited
[19:28] <sewerurchin> Hi all, can anybody recommend any good DVD Ripping software; I've tried dvd::rip so far..
[19:28] <ujjain> bastidrazor: Yeah, that's fair, but I have no idea what causes the black screen then. All I did was add /Maxtor for a 2nd disk, it replaced all default entries
[19:28] <djskidd> Could the update installer be interfering?
[19:28] <shawn_> whats the command t restart alsa iin xubuntu
[19:28] <ujjain> so even the default /dev/sda1 got replaced by UID and no longer boots
[19:28] <shawn_> /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[19:28] <shawn_> ?
[19:29] <urlin2u> ujjain, you can pastebin the fstab if needed
[19:29] <Polah> ujjain: Nothing wrong with using UUIDs, pastebin your fstab for us please
[19:29] <bastidrazor> ujjain: you use a livecd to see if the uuid's are pointing at the correct /dev/sdXX's .. sudo blkid and sudo fdisk -l are the two commands that will help you in this.

[19:33] <zykotick9> sewerurchin, dvd::rip isn't a nightmare, but AVI is ;)  Best of luck man.  Handbrake dropped AVI output, because it's such a mess - so it's no help to you.
