[05:13] <theadmin> NathanBdot: Yes, it doesn't change the settings, and will return on next login, you have to change it manually.
[05:13] <kraut> kk
[05:13] <kraut> thanks and bye
[05:14] <ZykoticK9> papul, it's not in the repo -- download DEB from http://handbrake.fr/
[05:14] <papul> k
[05:14] <Ghost|BTFH> Airris: But seriously, you may want to check out nvclock too.
[05:14] <Airris> nvclock?
[05:14] <NathanBdot> theadmin, I'm not trying to change the settings....i'm trying to make the setitngs window go away
[05:14] <saihtam> Airris: bet your gfx feels just fine, I just know lm-sensors is not showing the same like windows
[05:15] <NathanBdot> theadmin, ok. i finally got a "XYZ is not responding" message and was able to force it to quit.
[05:15] <NathanBdot> problem solved.
[05:15] <Ghost|BTFH> Airris: You sound like a Su of graphics, so you might want to have a bit more than generic control over your vid card.
[05:15] <saihtam> Airris: not ask why because I should't use windows :)
[05:15] <Ghost|BTFH> nvclock can give you that.
[05:15] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, alt+f2 - xkill then click the windows (xkill isn't too good but i don't know what appearance preferences runs as)
[05:15] <theadmin> NathanBdot: Oh! That. Try "xkill" in any terminal, then click on window OR use "killall application"
[05:15] <Airris> does nvclock have a temperature read?
[05:15] <Airris> I may as well get that if i can use it for my little test
[05:16] <NathanBdot> ZykoticK9, theadmin, thanks :)
[05:16] <Ghost|BTFH> Airris: Oooooh yeah, not to mention the ability to adjust fan speed, gpu speed, mem speed, etc.
[05:16] <Airris> k, sweet
[05:17] <Ghost|BTFH> Airris: Of course, it doesn't always work properly...you do have to have lmsensors set up correctly or you get crap like mine...
[05:17] <saihtam> ..
[05:17] <Ghost|BTFH> GPU temperature: -388c  Baby, I keep my system CHILLED.
[05:17] <Airris> lol!
[05:17] <Airris> ok how do i set up lmsensors so we don't have that disaster :P
[05:18] <saihtam> doesn't work for all chipset anyway
[05:19] <saihtam> and no disaster can happend when you configure lm-sensors
[05:19] <Airris> I think this computer's graphics card is a couple generations back so it should be ok
[05:19] <Ghost|BTFH> Airris: gdesklets-data I think has it clumped into there.
[05:19] <Ghost|BTFH> Might work w/o lmsensors then.
[05:19] <Ghost|BTFH> Anyhow, time for me to turn into a pumpkin.
[05:19] <Airris> actually i think I shouldn't even have this particular graphics card, i'm never buying a computer without doing more thorough research again
[05:19] <Ghost|BTFH> Have a good one all. :)
[05:19] <Airris> apparently the Quadro series is meant for doing CAD and stuff, not gaming. Frigging damnit
[05:20] <t3chkommie> anyone here know how to get steam working on ubuntu?
[05:20] <Untitled_only> does anyone know the name of a good mp4 player
[05:20] <saihtam> Airris: what's the problem? its running the same as on your windows?
[05:20] <Airris> Untitled_only: VLC
[05:20] <chelz> Airris: supposedly with minor driver tweaks, quadro features can be had on consumer cards
[05:20] <ZykoticK9> t3chkommie, i believe PlayonLinux has a steam entry - don't use either myself
[05:20] <iOmlette> Untitled_only: SM Player works for me. Or VLC.
[05:20] <Untitled_only> thanks
[05:21] <chelz> Untitled_only: i use smplayer with h264 hw accel
[05:21] <NathanBdot> Airris, Where can I find the GPU temperature?
[05:21] <theadmin> t3chkommie: You mean the gaming thing?
[05:21] <t3chkommie> theadmin yes
[05:21] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, the Sensor Applet for Gnome shows my GPU as well as CPU temps
[05:21] <theadmin> t3chkommie: go to http://winehq.org , see that
[05:22] <jmcantrell> does anyone know of a program that i can use in a script that will tell me if a window is currently being dragged?
[05:22] <Untitled_only> I'm going to try the VLC, if it doesn't work I'll try the other
[05:22] <NathanBdot> ZykoticK9, sensor applet?
[05:22] <t3chkommie> theadmin, i have tried alot of different things, havnt gotten anything to work yet, i was wondering if anyone has experience?
[05:22] <NathanBdot> VLC rocks.
[05:22] <NathanBdot> just wish it'd have a library system like iTunes.
[05:22] <papul> can u guys suggest a good looking gkrellm alternative?
[05:22] <wastrel> vlc worked for the one mp4 i've tried it on
[05:22] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, right click panel / add to panel / Hardware sensor monitor
[05:23] <NathanBdot> ZykoticK9, it's not there.
[05:23] <ZykoticK9> papul, conky ?
[05:23] <papul> sux
[05:23] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, don't know then sorry
[05:23] <theadmin> t3chkommie: Steam starts up with WINE fine... okay, let's just run this in the terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine1.2
[05:23] <Untitled_only> NathannBdot, is it ok if I add you?
[05:23] <Untitled_only> sorry about the type O
[05:24] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, what do you mean "add me"
[05:24] <Untitled_only> as friend on the irc
[05:25] <Airris> ok i gotta go, thanks for the help guys
[05:25] <theadmin> Airris: Bye.
[05:25] <NathanBdot> Airris, wait
[05:25] <NathanBdot> please :)
[05:25] <NathanBdot> Airris, Where do you get the GPU temperature?
[05:25] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, sure. didn't know you could do that with IRC.
[05:26] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, if you're using Nvidia -- Nvidia-settins has a Theremal Settings option that shows the GPU temp
[05:26] <Untitled_only> yea with Pidgin.
[05:26] <Airris> NathanBdot: I was the one *asking* about how to do that, I'm not quite the expert, so unless you have an NV card with the propietary drivers i wouldn't know
[05:26] <Airris> :)
[05:26] <NathanBdot> Airris, oh i thought i saw you commenting on your past GPU temp.
[05:27] <NathanBdot> Airris, thanks though :)
[05:27] <Airris> np
[05:27] <Airris> night guys
[05:27] <aetaric> can someone help me i just the whole tree.
[05:27] <NathanBdot> ZykoticK9, I'm using nVidia but there's no Thermal settings options.
[05:27] <theadmin> aetaric: trolling is offtopic. You're not being funny either.
[05:27] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[05:27] <switchtostatic> hello all. I have a new install of Server 9.1, I need to switch from DHCP to a static ip of <IP_ADDRESS>, netmask of <IP_ADDRESS>, and gateway of <IP_ADDRESS>; this should be pretty easy to do, but I cannot seem to figure out how.
[05:27] <NathanBdot> Lucid
[05:28] <Untitled_only> also thanks the VLC  meadia player is playing the mp4 video... later going 2 watch Ninja Assassin
[05:28] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, Oh ok. I remember now that Pidgin allows that
[05:28] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, you might want to add me on another messenger though because I'm not usually on IRC
[05:28] <ZykoticK9> NathanBdot, sorry man - your Lucid seems much different then mine (for whatever reason), i can't help sorry
[05:29] <aetaric> it isn't trolling. today is april 1st.
[05:29] <jmcantrell> does anyone know of a program that i can use in a script that will tell me if a window is currently being dragged?
[05:29] <NathanBdot> ZykoticK9, no problem :) I appreciate your willingness to help :)
[05:29] <Untitled_only> yea it's the best IRC client I think, supports video chat, and all like a free skype
[05:30] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, skype *is* free...
[05:30] <NathanBdot> unless you're talking about the other "free"
[05:30] <NathanBdot> haha
[05:30] <t3chkommie> theadmin: ok, steam is installed... i went to the wine irc... no one there :(
[05:30] <llutz> NathanBdot: it never will  be
[05:30] <Untitled_only> I know but you can't call lan lines, for free
[05:31] <NathanBdot> Pidgin allows you to call land lines for free?
[05:31] <ukdkbr> Anyone here happen to have a Canon MP620 Multifunction printer?
[05:31] <Untitled_only> yea if you get the plug in's
[05:31] <Untitled_only> well I know I can
[05:32] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, which plugin?
[05:32] <krups> hello, does anyone run iTunes under wine on their Ubuntu systems..?
[05:32] <Untitled_only> I don't know the name but just go to the plug in menu and install them all
[05:33] <t3chkommie> krups, i tired itunes and wine... never got it to work and wasted alot of time. ii think quicktime kept crashing. :(
[05:33] <Untitled_only> my sound just went out on the VLC gotta take the sound off the IRC
[05:33] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, haha what an odd way to manage your CPU/memory usage :-P
[05:33] <Untitled_only> I kno
[05:34] <Untitled_only> but I makes my computer run faster... for some reason... lmao
[05:34] <krups> t3chkommie: ah, alrighty, guess i'll have to install it on my windarz system..  :/
[05:34] <NathanBdot> Untitled_only, I stopped using it because my IRC windows came up black-on-black and no one in #pidgin tried to help me
[05:34] <delidana> selam :) emmiler
[05:34] <gekken> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=itunes+ubuntu
[05:34] <t3chkommie> krups: are you just looking for ipod support? why itunes?
[05:34] <delidana> ananýzýn
[05:34] <delidana> amý
[05:34] <delidana> lan amciklar: D
[05:35] <Untitled_only> yea there, ###holes
[05:35] <NathanBdot> Ok i've got to run.  Talk to you all later! :)
[05:36] <Untitled_only> yea
[05:37] <DarkVoid82> where can i locate grub.conf in karmic?
[05:38] <von_neumann> anyone know a way I can convince apt to stop warning me It doesn't need all my lib*-dev packages anymore?
[05:39] <ZykoticK9> DarkVoid82, if you're looking to config grub2 check the file /etc/default/grub
[05:39] <wastrel> \
[05:39] <ZykoticK9> !grub2 > DarkVoid82
[05:40] <tje> Can anyone tell me where I might find the ./Configure string used to configure OpenSSL on Ubuntu?
[05:40] <archi-_-> hello
[05:40] <tje> I've got the OpenSSL 1.0.0 source tarball and I'd like to install that, but have it completely overlay the existing 0.9.x install (i.e., sysconfdir, mandir, etc)
[05:40] <Whisky_> I had 3 lines to mount my windows partitions in /etc/fstab now when I try to reboot upon booting my display goes hay wire and I can't do anything and when I try to boot in recovery mode when the recovery menu opens I can't access anything and it says it failed to load devices (the one's I had in fstab)
[05:41] <tje> Whisky_,   I'd try downloading and booting off a LiveCD if you've got access.
[05:41] <tje> Do you have the installer CD you used to install the version of Ubuntu you've currently got?
[05:41] <Whisky_> yes I just installed it last night. I'm a n00b to the Linux scene.
[05:42] <wastrel> tje: maybe download and examine the source package?  i dunno :/
[05:42] <tje> Whisky_,   Try booting off the CD (use the 'try without installing' option)...  Once the system is up, manually mount your hard drive, go in and edit the fstab and reboot.
[05:43] <Whisky_> how do I mount my drive when I'm logged in?
[05:43] <tje> wastrel,  Hmmm, not exactly my area of expertise.   I'll give it a try.
[05:43] <Whisky_> it's supposed to be sda6 I think
[05:43] <wastrel> i'd have a look myself but i'm super lazy
[05:43] <tje> Whisky_,   Once you're booted, run "dmesg | less" and find what your hard drive is.   If it's /dev/sda6 as you suppose, run:   mkdir /mnt/harddrive && mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/harddrive
[05:44] <tje> Whisky_,   From there, you can use whatever editor you want to edit /mnt/harddrive/etc/fstab.  Just comment out the lines you added for the Windows partition(s).
[05:45] <Whisky_> thanks tje, i'll be back in a bit
[05:45] <Whisky_> let me try :)
[05:46] <tje> Whisky_,   no problem
[05:46] <ScottG489> Does hibernate work on the live cd?
[05:48] <jmcantrell> does anyone know of a program that i can use in a script that will tell me if a window is currently being dragged?
[05:48] <maginot> jmcantrell, define "being dragged"
[05:49] <sam_> hey
[05:49] <sam_> is randall here?
[05:50] <jmcantrell> maginot: um. not sure. mouse button depressed while window movement is happening?
[05:50] <tje> jmcantrell,  and you're wanting to be able to identify these events from a script?  i.e., perl, bash, etc?
[05:51] <Untitled_only> still here, if anyone needs me
[05:51] <maginot> jmcantrell, try changing you mouse theme...
[05:51] <jmcantrell> tje: yes, preferably a shell script, but i'll take what i can get
[05:51] <wastrel> the info would have to be exposed by the windowmanager
[05:51] <maginot> jmcantrell, you're probably missing the Move icon
[05:51] <jmcantrell> maginot: what are you talking about?
[05:51] <tje> jmcantrell,  I don't think that's possible.   I'm no X wizard, but I think the only thing you might be able to do from a shell is query the coordinates of a window
[05:51] <maginot> jmcantrell, oh, sorry, just made a confusion here
[05:52] <tje> jmcantrell, maybe if you poll each window on a regular basis, you might be able to notice that a window was moved
[05:52] <jmcantrell> tje: wmctrl can move/resize, wasn't sure if there was an equivalent for querying
[05:54] <Exodus> Hello
[06:06] <arabica> hi there
[06:06] <wastrel> ubuntu
[06:06] <glick> whats the offtopic channel for germanyu?
[06:06] <Whisky_> tje: I'm back
[06:07] <Flannel> glick: #ubuntu-de-offtopic
[06:07] <Whisky_> it boots fine now but the display still goes haywire at bootup around the login screen. When in recovery mode, I can get into command line fine now. Apparently it fails to load the display driver?
[06:07] <chendo> i'm essentially getting the same error on boot as this guy: http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1409666
[06:07] <Whisky_> nuvmedia or something like that
[06:07] <glick> thanks flannel
[06:07] <chendo> this was after i did an apt-get upgrade
[06:07] <chendo> any ideas?
[06:07] <Aquina> I accidentially entered the path to an image file into my shell. The result was just crazy. Does someone think it coud cause serious problems?
[06:08] <Flannel> Aquina: Why was the image file set executable?
[06:08] <rww> Aquina: no. Type "reset" to get rid of the funky binary stuff on your screen, and continue as normal.
[06:08] <rww> Flannel: crappy non-permissions-using filesystem, I'd guess >.>
[06:08] <Aquina> I set it executable.
[06:08] <Whisky_> tje?
[06:09] <rww> that would do it too ;P
[06:09] <chendo> seems to be a common problem
[06:09] <chendo> and recent problem at htat
[06:10] <Whisky_> rww: I'm troubled with my new Kubuntu install. I can't get it to display properly because as soon as it bootsu up the login screen shows a mulititude of flashing rainbow colors. I can get into recovery mode and in shell but not graphically. Apparently some device nvumedia or something fails too when booting
[06:10] <Untitled_only> My sound keeps going off when I switch apps... any clues?
[06:11] <Untitled_only> My sound keeps going off when I switch apps... any clues?
[06:11] <rww> ubottu: repeat | Untitled_only
[06:12] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, but the live session was fine?
[06:12] <rww> Whisky_: I'm not exactly the best person to ask about graphical problems :\
[06:12] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: yes it ran fine :(
[06:12] <Whisky_> rww: Ok :D
[06:12] <mypcwontstart> I'm locked out of ubuntu. Is there a page that shows how to get around this
[06:12] <Untitled_only> thanks
[06:12] <Flannel> mypcwontstart: What do you mean locked out?
[06:13] <SeaPhor> have you checked in #kubuntu Whisky_ ?
[06:13] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: I edited my /etc/fstab and got the mounting windoze drives lines commented out but still get a haywire display
[06:13] <maginot> Untitled_only, maybe would be easier to get any help if you dig a little to get more clues about your sound problem, take a look at your logs, see if running the application from the console it output any error, etc
[06:13] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: Everyone's sleeping there :/
[06:13] <mypcwontstart> i installed ubuntu but forgot the username and password I setup, Flannel
[06:13] <Flannel> mypcwontstart: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[06:13] <Untitled_only> ok let me check
[06:13] <chi_> Anyone use Konversation?
[06:14] <Flannel> mypcwontstart: That'll let you reset the password, when you're at the root prompt, (step 2 of that page) do `cat /etc/passwd` and you'll see your username
[06:14] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, do you have ATI graphics?
[06:14] <maginot> Whisky_, you're having issues with your framebuffer?
[06:14] <Flannel> mypcwontstart: Actually, a more concise way would be `ls /home`
[06:14] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: It's a NVidia card in my notebook
[06:14] <Flannel> mypcwontstart: That will give you only users that are real people, instead of all (including system stuff)
[06:14] <Whisky_> maginot: I don't know what that is. 1 day old Linux user.
[06:15] <maginot> Whisky_, your display problem is on the "black" boot screen, not after the loggin prompt being showed, right?
[06:15] <Untitled_only> nope, it's not saying anything about my sound log
[06:16] <Whisky_> maginot: as soon as the booting finishes, the display problem starts
[06:16] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, did you install anything else since ubuntu/kubuntu?
[06:16] <maginot> Untitled_only, did you looked at dmesg output, /var/log/daemon.log, /var/log/user.log, /var/log/syslog, and so on?
[06:16] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, updates?
[06:17] <maginot> Whisky_, so you can see the Ubuntu loading screen, but when you have to put the logging in the bot is where you have problems?
[06:17] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: I was installing updates and suddenly my laptop died because of low battery :(
[06:17] <maginot> ! ^
[06:17] <Shazzypants> oh noes
[06:17] <Whisky_> :'(
[06:18] <Whisky_> now? :(
[06:18] <indrora-laptop> I'm working with grub2 trying to get it to use 1400x1050 for my graphics resolution but I'm having no luck trying to get it to play nice; I set GRUB_GFXMODE=1400x1050 in /etc/default/grub but it wont show up in the final /boot/grub/grub.cfg file
[06:18] <maginot> Whisky_, I could tell you to boot from the CD chroot to your installed system and run apt-get -f install, but maybe it's a hard task for a 1 day user =/
[06:19] <ZykoticK9> indrora-laptop, are you runing "sudo update-grub" after you make your changes?
[06:19] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, can you get to a user-session at all,,, even in a tty?
[06:19] <Whisky_> maginot: No, I can do this no problem
[06:19] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: I can get to login in shell
[06:19] <indrora-laptop> ZykoticK9, Yes.
[06:19] <llutz> indrora-laptop: did you run" sudo update-grub" after that change?
[06:19] <ZykoticK9> indrora-laptop, ok, just checkin'
[06:19] <Whisky_> but I didn't have wifi enabled there so I couldn't connect to irssi either :/
[06:19] <indrora-laptop> llutz, see above.
[06:20] <maginot> Whisky_, if you get a login shell you don't need the complicated part, just run apt-get -f install
[06:20] <Whisky_> maginot: even without internet?
[06:20] <ZykoticK9> llutz, great minds think alike.  and simple minds think the same ;)
[06:20] <maginot> Whisky_, internet will be necessary to finish your instalation
[06:20] <Whisky_> maginot: I use WiFi, how do I connect?
[06:21] <rww> Whisky_: assuming you were installing updatea and not just downloading them, you generally don't need internet access to finish an installation.
[06:21] <maginot> Whisky_, you will have to use iwconfig
[06:21] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, can you hard-line a cat5 to the lappy for this?
[06:21] <llutz> ZykoticK9: too early to type + read at the same time ;(
[06:21] <Whisky_> SeaPhor: :| went over my head
[06:21] <Whisky_> maginot: just iwconfig?
[06:21] <maginot> rww, he could run apt-get -f install without having internet, but maybe still needs some other packages
[06:22] <maginot> Whisky_, you will have to enter the right options, you could try "man iwconfig" to see if you get how to use it
[06:22] <rww> maginot: not if he got done downloading them and was in the middle of installing them, he doesn't.
[06:22] <Whisky_> let me get my other notebook that's running windows so I can stay here while I'm doing it all
[06:22] <indrora-laptop> ZykoticK9, I took a diff between my current config and if I turn off GRUB_GFXMODE entirely -- no difference.
[06:22] <maginot> rww, it's a good point
[06:22] <maginot> Whisky_, maybe rww is right, you could try without internet
[06:22] <SeaPhor> Whisky_, can you run an ethernet cable to the laptop to finish what maginot is suggesting?
[06:22] <lorbrito> cron: can't lock /var/run/crond.pid, otherpid may be 1118: Resource temporarily unavailable
[06:22] <indrora-laptop> ZykoticK9, I'm tempted to just stick with vga=0x??? and ignore the whining.
[06:22] <ZykoticK9> indrora-laptop, sorry man, i don't use any frame buffer setting so i'm really no help at all...
[06:23] <maginot> Whisky_, just give a try, if doesn't work tell us
[06:23] <ZykoticK9> indrora-laptop, vga= doesn't work with newer kernels - not sure about karmic
[06:23] <Whisky_> i'm switching on my other notebook, just a moment
[06:23] <indrora-laptop> Hmm
[06:23] <indrora-laptop> Well, I'll take a look at the config stuff
[06:24] <Whisky_> by the way I can get to shell only in recovery mode
[06:24] <maginot> Whisky_, np
[06:24] <indrora-laptop> Wtf
[06:24] <indrora-laptop> Found the problem: Someone didnt pay enough attention to the 00_header
[06:25] <Whisky_> okay rebooting from here
[06:25] <Whisky_> wish me luck
[06:26] <wolter> when I shutdown, I get that this 'Unknown Application' is not responding; how can I get to know which is this 'Unknown Application'?
[06:27] <indrora-laptop> wolter, What dist?
[06:27] <indrora-laptop> Kubuntu? Xubuntu?
[06:27] <wolter> ubuntu, lucid
[06:27] <wolter> but it has happened to people in jaunty and intrepid
[06:27] <Whiskyy> 0 upgrades 0 newly installed 0 to remove and 185 not upgraded :(
[06:28] <indrora-laptop> Whiskyy, that just means you need to run aptitude upgrade
[06:29] <indrora-laptop> Right, time to reboot and hope :)
[06:29] <Whiskyy> cant I connect wlan in shell? iwconfig shows my wifi card

[06:29] <mcurrington> Whiskyy: man ifconfig
[06:30] <triptec> I just installed karmic, the desktop version, bootup and opening firefox ~20 min, so I reinstalled only base, with fluxbox, but I have no sound now.. does anyone know how to set it up just like it was a full install?
[06:30] <TomV_415> I've got a madding problem trying to boot my dual boot system into ubuntu.  It's having a problem during the fsck - can't mount /dev/sda5, which where my ubuntu partion is...(here's a copy of what I see: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/2bXaqQmP )
[06:30] <TomV_415> Any ideas?
[06:30] <wastrel> it'll take a little more than ifconfig if your network uses security
[06:31] <TomV_415> It has booted fine in the past, and I can open it with Live CD (on usb stick actually)
[06:31] <wolter> when I shutdown, I get that this 'Unknown Application' is not responding; how can I get to know which is this 'Unknown Application'?
[06:31] <Whiskyy> how do I exit a man? I skimmed through it. but I already have a pre-configured open wireless network that I want to connect to :/
[06:32] <maginot> Whiskyy, q
[06:32] <maginot> Whiskyy, did you ran apt-get -f install ?
[06:32] <Whiskyy> yes maginot
[06:32] <Whiskyy> 0 upgrades 0 newly installed 0 to remove and 185 not upgraded :(
[06:34] <maginot> Whiskyy, what does startx do when you run it ?
[06:34] <indrora-laptop> Well no matter how hard I try i cant get GRUB to be in 1400x1050 :V
[06:35] <Whiskyy> it let me login :/
[06:35] <Tekk_> how do you install something while ignoring the dependencies?
[06:35] <Whiskyy> i'm inside my systen
[06:35] <Whiskyy> system*
[06:35] <maginot> indrora-laptop, you can use one of these vga codes
[06:35] <maginot> indrora-laptop, http://lpofws.blogspot.com/2010/03/codigos-de-resolucao-vga-para-grub-e.html
[06:35] <maginot> Whiskyy, no problem with startx ?
[06:35] <Whiskyy> noop
[06:36] <maginot> Whiskyy, try dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[06:36] <Tekk_> I installed gnash through source and figure it'd be easiest to just install the plugin in the repos instead of trying ot figure out how to make it
[06:37] <Whiskyy> says gdm isn't installed
[06:38] <maginot> Whiskyy, are you using KDE or Gnome?
[06:38] <TomV_415> Anyone have a chance to check out my pastie of the failed boot messages I'm getting?
[06:38] <Whiskyy> KDE
[06:38] <padd1> hi abhinav
[06:38] <maginot> Whiskyy, try dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[06:39] <Whiskyy> Warning: Fake start-stop daemon called, doing nothing
[06:39] <indrora-laptop> maginot, I've considered it
[06:42] <maginot> Whiskyy, I think that's because you're inside Single mode...
[06:43] <kokozedman> hey guys
[06:44] <kokozedman> i'd like to configure an interface to be DHCP enabled, but is with an overrided DNS server
[06:46] <kokozedman> anyone?
[06:46] <mypcwontstart> kokozedman, thats easy
[06:47] <PixelMind> Is there anybody here that may be able to help with me?
[06:47] <maginot> PixelMind, just ask
[06:48] <maginot> kokozedman, you can look at /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[06:48] <Whiskyy> maginot: I'm tryong to update but even in KDE with Wifi connected I can't browse. I have no connectivity. And this laptop is connected to the same network with windows and i'm online here but not there
[06:48] <PixelMind> Alright, well first off I am new to Linux, just thought I would get a change of pace from Windows. But anyway to the point. I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, however it is not detecting my internal Wifi card.
[06:49] <PixelMind> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9058614#post9058614
[06:49] <kokozedman> maginot i've already looked at the /etc/network/interfaces, but i'm not sure what to write in there
[06:49] <maginot> Whiskyy, start your system normally, when you get the problematic screen switch to a tty "CTRL+ALT+F2" and try dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[06:49] <PixelMind> Those are my specs. Using a separate computer at the moment.
[06:49] <Whiskyy> ok
[06:50] <Whiskyy> hold on
[06:51] <maginot> PixelMind, I think you will have to try ndiswrapper using the 64bit driver from windows to get the proper support for a broadcom wifi card
[06:51] <PixelMind> Hmmm, alright. My next questions
[06:51] <PixelMind> *question
[06:51] <maginot> kokozedman, you said you have a fixed DNS, so look at those two place if you have anything fixed and remove it
[06:51] <TomV_415> FYI: managed to fix my issue using my USB version of LiveCD, then Palimpsest Disk Utility (System-> Administration->Disk Utility), selected the partition, and then selected the 'check the filesystem' icon, which is probably just a shell for fsck.. anyway, now it all boots just fine.
[06:51] <TomV_415> :-)
[06:52] <maginot> kokozedman, actually I miss understood your problem
[06:52] <kokozedman> maginot what kind of line should i add in the : iface eth0 inet dhcp?
[06:52] <maginot> kokozedman, go to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and set the DNS to DHCP client
[06:53] <PixelMind> The Ubuntu Software Center, when I go to select an item to install, there is no 'install' button. When using the pull down menu, the install option is grayed out. How do...enable the install function of the Software center.
[06:53] <kokozedman> maginot i don't see any DNS there ... i see domain-name-servers
[06:53] <Whiskyy> maginot: It went to the problematic screen and when i did CTRL+Alt+F2 it sent me to another "Green"screen so I rebooted and it rebooted fine now it's asking for my password :/
[06:53] <maginot> kokozedman, you have to have something like prepend domainname-server <ipaddress>; on you dhclient.conf
[06:54] <samer> اه
[06:54] <kokozedman> ok, i see
[06:54] <maginot> kokozedman, this will overwrite the DNS provided by you dhcp server
[06:54] <kairu> PixelMind, try opening up a terminal and typing 'aptitude search [software looking for]' anf install the one you want with 'sudo aptitude install [program from lis (exactly as it shows)]
[06:54] <samer> hi
[06:54] <Whiskyy> maginot: But WiFi is still the same, it's connected but no access
[06:54] <kokozedman> maginot is that a line before the request subnet-mask ... or after it? or it doesn't matter?
[06:55] <maginot> Whiskyy, okay, so now you problem is with the wifi not with the screen, right?
[06:55] <maginot> kokozedman, you can use before, yes.
[06:55] <Whiskyy> maginot: yes
[06:55] <PixelMind> Will try that. Letting my new install go through the Software update. I am using a wireless bridge for that process.
[06:56] <maginot> unfortunately now I have to go. Whiskyy glad that your screen problem have gone.
[06:57] <kairu> PixelMind, if you are already installing/updating you cannot install from somewhere else.
[06:57] <Whiskyy> maginot: I'm not really sure if it's gone because it just booted this time but I hope it's gone. Thanks :)
[06:57] <kairu> PixelMind, you will have to wait until the update is finished then you may install.
[06:57] <kokozedman> maginot i think i'll use the supersede, because it will override whatever the server will give me ... the prepend will add the one i set THEN add the one from server (which is not what i want)
[06:58] <PixelMind> This is true. But before I started the update process, those options were never there in the first place.
[06:58] <PixelMind> Would any of the updates fix this?
[06:58] <kairu> PixelMind, possibly.
[06:59] <PixelMind> Or maybe somehow enable the internal Broadcom card?
[06:59] <PixelMind> I will try the driver solution you suggested as soon as the update is done though
[07:00] <kairu> PixelMind, the updates may install the card you need. So before you install something else, check to see if wireless is working.
[07:00] <PixelMind> Will do.
[07:00] <PixelMind> As soon as its done
[07:01] <kairu> PixelMind, have you checked out System > Administration > Hardware Drivers ? There you can install drivers (if found) that your computer needs.
[07:02] <PixelMind> Yeah I checked before I started the update process. Do you also think it maybe because I installed the 64-bit version and not the 32-bit version?
[07:02] <PixelMind> I was running Windows XP Pro 32-bit before. But I also swapped hard drives in case I need to go back.
[07:03] <kairu> PixelMind, depends, if your system is 32bit then you need to switch, if its 64bit it should b fine
[07:03] <kairu> PixelMind, oh...you might want to think about reinstalling a 32bit version.
[07:04] <rww> PixelMind: Which broadcom chipset?
[07:04] <PixelMind> Eh...
[07:04] <PixelMind> That is something I should have looked at before I install Ubuntu.
[07:05] <PixelMind> Is there a way to find out which chipset it is currently? Or do I have to have the drivers in place before Ubuntu can detect it?
[07:07] <rww> PixelMind: type "lspci" in a terminal, look for the line that has "Broadcom" in it
[07:07] <rww> e.g., mine says "03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)", and I have a Broadcom 4312.
[07:08] <PixelMind> Alright, so...
[07:09] <PixelMind> After the update and rebooting. I went to the hardware drivers
[07:09] <PixelMind> It has found the following
[07:09] <PixelMind> Broadcom B43 Wireless driver
[07:09] <PixelMind> And
[07:10] <PixelMind> Broadcom STA Wireless driver
[07:10] <PixelMind> Which one should I enable? Or should I enable both?
[07:11] <rww> PixelMind: does it say that one of them is in use already, or are they both disabled?
[07:12] <PixelMind> Both disabled and LSPCI says Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
[07:13] <rww> PixelMind: Can you get internet access through ethernet temporarily?
[07:14] <PixelMind> Yeah. I am using a wireless bridge
[07:15] <rww> PixelMind: awesome. Go into the terminal, issue "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter bcmwl-kernel-source", say "Yes" when it asks about fetching firmware, and stay connected to the internet while it's installing. Restart when it's done and see if your wifi works.
[07:15] <PixelMind> Would the hardware driver GUI do the same thing?
[07:16] <rww> PixelMind: the GUI has been rather unreliable for me in the past
[07:16] <PixelMind> Hmmm.
[07:16] <rww> but theoretically, yeah, one of the lines in Hardware Drivers is b43-fwcutter, and the other is bcmwl-kernel-source.
[07:17] <rww> (b43-fwcutter is the firmware loader, bcmwl-kernel-source is the actual driver. you need both.)
[07:19] <Evet> do you know where the panel settings are?
[07:22] <PixelMind> Panel Settings?
[07:23] <moetunes> somewhere in ~/.config I would think
[07:24] <Evet> PixelMind: the toolbar
[07:24] <PixelMind> Toolbar as in across the top?
[07:24] <rww> Evet: right-click it, click Properties...
[07:25] <moetunes> PixelMind: yep that's the panel - and the one at the bottom
[07:27] <Evet> hmm
[07:27] <Evet> properties doesnt helpme to recover the bar i have removed
[07:27] <moetunes> Evet: best to ask about what you're trying to do...
[07:27] <moetunes> k
[07:27] <Evet> moetunes: youre right
[07:28] <moetunes> there was a bot link for doing that iirc
[07:28] <PixelMind> Alright, went through the gui and enabled the B43 driver
[07:28] <rww> ubottu: panelreset
[07:28] <PixelMind> And restarted, but the card does not seem to be on?
[07:29] <PixelMind> And yes the switch is in the on position
[07:29] <sikun> i'm currently trying to setup apache and python under ubuntu, I have setup the config file w/ AddHandler cgi-script .py, and setup the directory to run the cgi scripts allowing them to run cgi, but when i goto load the file through the browser i get an internal server error. What am i forgetting?
[07:29] <rww> PixelMind: then I'd recommend doing the command-line way I said :\
[07:29] <Evet> aha!
[07:29] <Evet> i havent thought such easy
[07:29] <Evet> thanks
[07:30] <Evet> was trying to delete whole gnome settings :)
[07:30] <PixelMind> I am going to try the STA driver as well, just to see.
[07:30] <PixelMind> and then if that doesn't work, try the command line
[07:31] <PixelMind> Well...the STA driver just...um....gave me a black screen with the mouse cursor...
[07:33] <moetunes> sikun: maybe the good folk in #ubuntu-server could help
[07:36] <hozeHoze1> hey, im using 8.04, i think i've read somewhere that i can upgrade LTS to LTS, will i be able to directly upgrade to 10.04? can someone confirm? thank you
[07:37] <timfrost> sikun: did you tell apache to re-read the configuration - graceful restart via 'apachectl -k graceful'
[07:37] <rww> hozeHoze1: yes, you will
[07:37] <Serkan> hi all i have sony vaio x series netbook and i having install unr

[07:41] <Serkan> psuebo driver i cant install
[07:41] <Serkan> and disk driver problem
[07:41] <timfrost> sikun: the command name may be apache2ctl rather than apachectl
[07:43] <Flannel> timfrost, sikun: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart (or reload) or sudo service apache2 restart
[07:43] <PixelMind> rww Just did the command line
[07:43] <PixelMind> rww: restarting now
[07:43] <ice_> 55+
[07:44] <tbf> how can i remove the couchdb addressbook provider from evolution?
[07:44] <tbf> it doesn't work reliable. it gets into the way. it's annoying.
[07:45] <codygman> i'm trying to get postfix working on my server
[07:45] <codygman> but mails not sending
[07:45] <codygman> it just sits there
[07:46] <codygman> and the process doesn't end
[07:46] <airtonix> !enter
[07:46] <AJW256> codygman: you might be better off in #ubuntu-server
[07:46] <codygman> ahh.. alright. thanks! sorry about the enter thing lol
[07:47] <airtonix> tbf, did you also remove the couchdb thingo from firefox (assuming you also use firefox)
[07:47] <timfrost> Flannel: which of those does the graceful restart?
[07:47] <PixelMind> The WiFi card is still not showing as active
[07:48] <airtonix> codygman, its ok, compose your thoughts and craft your question in one message. you wont always have the luxury of not being interupted by someone elses question.
[07:49] <Kartagis> how can I get ffmpeg libraries?
[07:50] <Flannel> timfrost: Looks like they all do.
[07:51] <apctr190> hi all,can any one tell me how to reinstall the grub in ubuntu 9.10
[07:52] <Kartagis> !info libavcodec
[07:52] <ZykoticK9> apctr190, did you upgrade to 9.10 or fresh install?  (or are you using grub1 or grub2?)
[07:52] <Kartagis> !find libavcodec
[07:52] <sikun> Flannel: i have used /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[07:52] <sikun> no luck
[07:52] <Kartagis> !info libavcodec-dev
[07:52] <apctr190> i freshly install 9.10
[07:52] <Kartagis> !info libavcodec52
[07:53] <Flannel> sikun: what are you trying to set up configuration-wise?
[07:53] <timfrost> Flannel: so any of our suggestions should help  sikun :)
[07:53] <Kartagis> !info libavcodec-extra-52
[07:53] <apctr190> ZykoticK9: i freshly install 9.10
[07:53] <ZykoticK9> !grub2 | apctr190
[07:53] <Kartagis> !info libavcodec-unstripped-52
[07:53] <sikun> sorry i was afk for a bit so i didn't notice anything previous :P
[07:53] <ZykoticK9> apctr190, see the link, you need to boot from livecd then chroot then reinstall grub or update grub
[07:53] <apctr190> i have to type the !grub2 on terminal?
[07:54] <ZykoticK9> apctr190, no - i just used that to sent the link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2
[07:54] <Flannel> sikun: What are you trying to set up with apache and/or what's your problem?
[07:54] <sikun> well i would like to run python as cgi with apache
[07:55] <sikun> i'm beginning to attempt to learn python for web dev
[07:56] <Flannel> sikun: does it have to be as cgi? or would mod_python work just fine? (it'll be faster too)
[07:56] <timfrost> codygman: Can you tell us how you configured postfix?  From your comments, it seems that something doesn't know how to send to the internet
[07:56] <sikun> Flannel: hmm.. yeah that would work as well actually
[07:57] <Flannel> sikun: Alright, what have you done so far as far as installing python in apache and stuff?
[07:57] <sikun> yes
[07:57] <sikun> apache is up and running
[07:57] <Kartagis> what does the message at http://suigeneris.pastebin.com/gMagr3Cf mean?
[07:57] <Flannel> sikun: Have you done anything with python yet? (change apache configs or installed anything)
[07:58] <Flannel> Kartagis: Are you mixing repositories or using PPAs?  Are you on a supported (non Lucid) Ubuntu install?
[07:58] <Serkan> i have sony vpcx11st netbook and i cant install ubuntu netbook release, need help. thanks
[07:59] <sikun> i have changed the apache2.conf adding AddHandler cgi-script .py trying to get it to work as cgi
[07:59] <Flannel> sikun: Alright, go ahead and go in and remove that, and then we'll get started :)
[07:59] <sikun> ok, one sec
[07:59] <Kartagis> Flannel, I am on Karmic. all I want to do is install ffmpeg libraries and import some .avi to audacity
[08:00] <Ubermensch> 'lo peoplz
[08:00] <Flannel> Kartagis: Did you add repositories or PPAs?
[08:00] <Kartagis> Flannel, no
[08:00] <Ubermensch> G2g already. :P
[08:00] <sikun> Flannel: Alright, everything i've changed is removed
[08:01] <Flannel> Kartagis: did you do something funky with your apt stuff? like forcing things?  Please pastebin the output of `sudo apt-get update`
[08:01] <Emanon> ok so i need to know how to get gtkrecordmydesktop to actually pick up sound from my mic the DEFAULT in audio source option isn't working
[08:02] <Flannel> sikun: Alright, now `sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-python`
[08:02] <Kartagis> Flannel, http://suigeneris.pastebin.com/5QW4sjxx
[08:03] <AbortD> is there a way to view all of a sources dependencies and include it in the .deb
[08:03] <Lazy^> Hello, how i can disable x11 login for certain user. So that user account doens't show up on gdm / kde login screen.
[08:03] <Lazy^> i want to hide one account from login screen / restrict gnome / kde login. So that use is only able to login via ssh
[08:04] <AJW256> Lazy^: change their shell to /bin/false
[08:04] <sikun> Flannel: ok, its installed
[08:05] <Lazy^> AJW256: by that i can allow only ssh login ?
[08:05] <Flannel> sikun: Alright, now verify that there's python stuff in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ (probably mod_python.load and mod_python.conf), `ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep python` is one way to do it
[08:06] <AJW256> Lazy^: Sorry, no, without shell you can't login to SSH
[08:06] <AJW256> Got confused
[08:06] <Damascene> hello, I've broken my evolution install after installing unstable version form ppa then removing it and reinstalling the offical one
[08:06] <Damascene> what should I do now?
[08:06] <Lazy^> AJW256: hehe that what i thought...
[08:07] <Emanon> Damascene remove and purge and reinstall only the stable one
[08:07] <Edwin_ach> hello everybody!
[08:07] <Edwin_ach> I have a question...
[08:07] <Damascene> Emanon, would purging delete something in my home folder
[08:07] <clarion> hey how do i change settings for transmission?? as is possible in Windows
[08:07] <Damascene> old messages?
[08:07] <Emanon> Damascene: sudo apt-get remove --purge evolution
[08:07] <Emanon> !hi | !ask | Edwin_ach
[08:08] <sikun> Flannel: ok mods-available/python.load
[08:08] <Emanon> Damascene: it purge removes all configs for the file being purged as well as uninstalling so its like it was never there
[08:08] <Emanon> or should be anyways
[08:08] <TehSnarf> I will give someone a high five if they can tell me how to turn the join/part messages in irssi
[08:08] <TehSnarf> turn them off*
[08:09] <Emanon> TehSnarf: srry dont know how in irssi but there is a plugin for it in pidgin irc
[08:09] <Flannel> sikun: Alright, then `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload` and you're set
[08:09] <clarion> anyone?
[08:09] <Edwin_ach> I am getting "stalled" while copying some (big) files between a Debian-Box and an Ubuntu-Box...
[08:09] <AbortD> is there a way to view all of a sources dependencies and include it in the .deb
[08:09] <AbortD> anyone?
[08:09] <TehSnarf> Emanon: Eh, it was worth a try. THanks anyhow. I'll just have to sift through them, I suppose
[08:09] <ZykoticK9> Damascene, are you sure this isn't due to the updates taking place with Lucid right now?  Does reinstalling give error messages?  What is actually happening with Evolution?  Are you getting an error of some sort?
[08:09] <Flannel> Kartagis: I imagine those sourceforge ones are causing the trouble
[08:10] <Emanon> !superdeb | AbortD
[08:10] <Emanon> guess not
[08:10] <AbortD> heh
[08:10] <AbortD> !superdeb
[08:10] <AbortD> that worked
[08:10] <Edwin_ach> the file transfer became hang, and don't proceed from there
[08:10] <AbortD> said it didnt know anything about it though emanon
[08:10] <Emanon> ahh
[08:10] <sikun> Flannel: ok, when i attempt to load my first test.py file.. it attempts to download it.. so i need to add AddHandler? i can't remember the exact wording of it.. but correct?
[08:11] <kermit> oh no, how do i change the water in my fish panel applet?
[08:11] <Edwin_ach> some had similar trouble and could fix it?
[08:12] <Flannel> sikun: Yeah, the package should take care of that, is there no python.conf file?  check in /etc/apache2/mods-available/
[08:12] <nevets04> Does anyone know if this thing with google is real?
[08:12] <Damascene> http://paste.ubuntu.com/407452/ ZykoticK9
[08:12] <sikun> i just checked for that actually, there is no python.conf
[08:12] <makdotgnu> wild card subdomain on ubuntu 8.04 and apache
[08:13] <makdotgnu> wildcard subdomain on localhost   apache2
[08:13] <Kartagis> Flannel, I've commented out the sourceforge line, still the same message
[08:13] <Flannel> Kartagis: You need to update after the comments
[08:13] <ZykoticK9> Damascene, sorry - that error is beyond me, so all I can do is wish you the best of luck, sorry man.
[08:14] <Kartagis> Flannel, I did
[08:14] <sikun> Flannel: yeah, no python.conf file :/

[08:33] <Richiie> anyone know here how to erase  stuff in Firefox "launch Application"
[08:33] <Richiie> if i press a Sopcast link i want it first to start sopcast buffer like 10 seconds then automatically open VLC so i can watch my stream sports in it
[08:33] <Richiie> anyone here got a tip? i googled all night but didnt get it working
[08:34] <ihaveitnow> I have COmpiz installed, and I set Emerald to replace it using the "emerald --replace" code. And just now my window top bar disappeared. I reset it to default and it has the Compiz default set...how do I get Emerald to run again?
[08:34] <Kevin`> ah ok found it, and the bug is still present from 9.10
[08:34] <Edwin_ach> I am getting "stalled" while copying some (big) files between a Debian-Box and an Ubuntu-Box, some files were copied but suddenly with a 400MB .mpg file, at 87% the file transfer hang up and never continue from there
[08:34] <babu__> no i have to start...
[08:34] <BoriTori> Kevin`: loking for web scraper
[08:34] <SyiZ> Is there a program in synaptic\ubuntu repository to automatically download an entire webserver via ftp, dump the mysql databases, and encrypt it? I need a nice GUI for idiots =]
[08:34] <mudman> babu__: ok..
[08:34] <Kevin`> BoriTori: to scrape what? urls? email addresses?
[08:35] <BoriTori> extract data from websites
[08:35] <mudman> so as far as i understand u need to write the code for data parsing without using arrays/pointers..rite..?
[08:35] <moetunes> SyiZ: obviously not - try a howto for lamp server
[08:35] <SyiZ> k
[08:35] <babu__> exactly
[08:35] <mudman> nd tat too in C
[08:35] <babu__> yes

[08:36] <palobre> can anyone tell me how to set wine's display refresh rate to 60Hz ???
[08:37] <mudman> babu__: actually i have done such thing for parsing some fx market data..
[08:37] <Edwin_ach> SyiZ, if you have access to the webserver and you want copying all the data (database included), doit with Nautilus and sftp

[08:41] <ihaveitnow> Alright guys, another time then. G'night
[08:43] <outer_space1> does ubuntu work better with ATI and crossfire or nvidea and SLI?
[08:43] <Berzerker> I don't believe they work very well with either.
[08:43] <ZykoticK9> Berzerker, +1
[08:45] <outer_space1> does nvidea or ati cards work better with ubuntu?
[08:45] <outer_space1> i have ati integrated radeon 4200 and cant get it to accelerate
[08:45] <Berzerker> nvidia works better, generally.
[08:45] <ZykoticK9> Berzerker, +2
[08:46] <outer_space1> im gonna return this thing and get nvidea then
[08:46] <ZykoticK9> outer_space1, if you're thinking about using Lucid in a month that's probably a VERY good idea
[08:47] <outer_space1> why in a month? im using lucid now
[08:47] <ZykoticK9> outer_space1, ahhh - that's why it's not working then
[08:47] <outer_space1> so radeon is supported in a month?
[08:48] <DannyButterman> Hi there. I don't know where to look : do you know which IRC channel is relevant for web dev talks ?
[08:48] <ZykoticK9> outer_space1, maybe - if ATI produces a driver for the new X that lucid uses
[08:48] <Kevin`> outer_space1: probably more like, ati lags behind significantly in kernel and X support for their drivers
[08:48] <outer_space1> im gonna get another motherboard and a nvidia card for dual monitors
[08:48] <arabica> DannyButterman: are you a troll?
[08:48] <sjorsr> allright guys, i'm having a bit of a pickle with the psb drivers in combination with xrandr
[08:49] <sjorsr> whenever i use xrandr to rotate the screen on a tablet-pc here, i basically lose 2d acceleration
[08:49] <will> how do you uninstall alienware darkstart GTK 2.x Theme/Style
[08:49] <sjorsr> when i switch back to the original display mode, 2d acceleration is fine.
[08:49] <camshron> i have too many probs with 2 monitors and nvidia
[08:49] <will> can someone help
[08:49] <DannyButterman> arabica:actually I'm a semi-orc, but I can be a troll if you want me to... :s lol
[08:50] <outer_space1> whats the problem with 2 monitors?
[08:50] <Berzerker> oh well look at that
[08:50] <Berzerker> I just got my SLI to work lol
[08:50] <camshron> have to re-enable them after every log out
[08:50] <will> anyone know how to remove a GTK 2.x Theme/Style
[08:51] <ZykoticK9> camshron, that can be easily fixed
[08:51] <camshron> ?
[08:51] <ZykoticK9> camshron, "gksu nvidia-settings" then click the Save to Xorg (or similar) button - problem solved
[08:51] <camshron> i love you
[08:52] <MozillaGuerrilla> i need to fix a system that is/was running ubuntu feisty.I can only access the bios,can I possibly fix it and update somehow using a live disc w/o a fresh install?
[08:52] <ZykoticK9> camshron, watch to see if you get a Failed to Parse error - then you need to run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" in a terminal then rerun nvidia-settings
[08:53] <tsyj2007> fungo_: hello
[08:53] <camshron> prob solved i cant believe i forgot that  i sure feel like a n00b
[08:55] <MozillaGuerrilla> hello?
[08:55] <joni> dfjñaldfjñaldfj
[08:55] <chemjeff2> Hi, I have a problem, my keyboard sometimes gets stuck in caps lock mode, I am running Hardy 9.10 64 bit, can anyone help?
[08:56] <joni> hello
[08:56] <camshron> hardy 9.10?
[08:57] <ZykoticK9> chemjeff2, hardy is 8.04 - karmic is 9.10 - thus camshron's question
[08:57] <chemjeff2> Well then I am running karmic, it is 9.10
[08:58] <chemjeff2> Is there a way to get the keyboard to behave?
[08:58] <MozillaGuerrilla> Help!i need to fix a system that is/was running ubuntu feisty.I can only access the bios,can I possibly fix it and update somehow using a live disc w/o a fresh install?
[08:59] <chemjeff2> I am not entirely convinced it's a hardware problem because the problem seems to go away when I reboot
[08:59] <moetunes> chemjeff2: with so little info I can only suggest slap it
[08:59] <camshron> usb keyboard?
[08:59] <chemjeff2> Yes it's a USB keyboard
[08:59] <chemjeff2> I've tried different ports
[08:59] <chemjeff2> What other information do you need?
[09:00] <camshron> i had probs with ps/2 keys so i made the switch
[09:00] <moetunes> chemjeff2: tried a diff keyboard layout? - you might have a diff key then caps lock as the caps lock
[09:00] <chemjeff2> How do I try a different keyboard layout?
[09:01] <MozillaGuerrilla> Help!i need to fix a system that is/was running ubuntu feisty.I can only access the bios,can I possibly fix it and update somehow using a live disc w/o a fresh install?
[09:01] <camshron> brb smoke break
[09:01] <chemjeff2> I didn't do anything to mess with the keyboard layout initially, all of these problems just started tonight
[09:01] <chemjeff2> I am running a virus scan now, could this be the result of a virus?
[09:02] <ZykoticK9> !feisty | MozillaGuerrilla
[09:03] <ZykoticK9> MozillaGuerrilla, feisty is EOL - so you might want to just consider fresh installing a more up-to-date release, but it might be possible to use a Feisty LiveCD and chroot into your system if you know what's wrong - or to backup files
[09:04] <MozillaGuerrilla> i cant do it using a current version ?
[09:04] <nuaimat> hi all
[09:04] <nuaimat> creating swap file seems slowing down my boot up process
[09:04] <nuaimat> those two lines from dmesg
[09:04] <nuaimat> [    2.897534] type=1505 audit(1270119657.371:10): operation="profile_load" pid=446 name=/usr/sbin/cupsd
[09:04] <nuaimat> [   29.894313] Adding 522072k swap on /dev/sda6.  Priority:-1 extents:1 across:522072k
[09:04] <FloodBot2> nuaimat: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:04] <nuaimat> see the swap creation is taking around 30 seconds ! :S
[09:04] <Vigo> nuaimat: try pastebin
[09:05] <ZykoticK9> MozillaGuerrilla, maybe...  certainly you could use a modern LiveCD to backup your data - the chroot might be an issue (maybe not)
[09:05] <nuaimat> Vigo: what do you want me to paste there ?
[09:05] <Vigo> !pastebin | nuaimat
[09:05] <nuaimat> Vigo: ok ok, i know about paste bin, but do you want me to paste the whole dmesg output to the pastebin ?
[09:05] <Vigo> nuaimat: Yes please
[09:05] <ZykoticK9> nuaimat, Vigo just means don't paste into the channel (but you already have)
[09:05] <nuaimat> ok sorry :)
[09:06] <nuaimat> swap creation is slowing down my boot process, it takes around 30 seconds can anyone help me please ?
[09:06] <nuaimat> i am on ubuntu 9.10
[09:07] <JacobSingh> Is it really true there is no way to add an external monitor w/o logging out :(
[09:07] <Vigo> Flood bot stops the post or output after X,2 , pastebin is the way to go with that data.
[09:07] <nuaimat> Vigo: ok dude, thanks for clarification, but it wasn't a flood, only two lines
[09:07] <MozillaGuerrilla> the guy wants it back to the way it was,i tried updating but it kept saying the repositories wern't available
[09:07] <antonio_> h
[09:07] <chemjeff2> Could it still be true that the caps lock issue is a hardware problem that is fixed upon reboot?
[09:07] <ZykoticK9> JacobSingh, i think Xorg would need to restart (thus the logout) in order to use a new 2nd monitor
[09:08] <moetunes> JacobSingh: yep you have to restart the graphical server
[09:08] <Vigo> nuaimat: On install did you alter or adjust any of the default install choices?
[09:08] <JacobSingh> So if I use a docking station and like to get up and go to meetings every hour or two
[09:08] <JacobSingh> I'm pretty much SOL, huh?
[09:08] <ZykoticK9> MozillaGuerrilla, updating isn't possible - it's End of Life meaning not supported, no updates
[09:08] <JacobSingh> ZykoticK9: moetunes ^^
[09:08] <nuaimat> Vigo: i did an upgrade from 9.04 earlier
[09:09] <nuaimat> Vigo: i resized the swap partition recently
[09:09] <MozillaGuerrilla> i tried adding some stuff through synaptic and it went kaput. now it wont even put up the x
[09:09] <ZykoticK9> JacobSingh, what gfx card are you using?
[09:09] <nuaimat> Vigo: and then googled for what to do, now i think i did all the mentioned steps to make it better
[09:09] <chemjeff2> okay this is weird - when i kill & restart my gnome session, the caps lock problem goes away
[09:09] <JacobSingh> ZykoticK9: ati
[09:09] <moetunes> JacobSingh: I don't use two monitors so I'm limited with that sorry
[09:10] <ZykoticK9> JacobSingh, with nvidia it will certainly apply 2nd monitors on the fly - with ATI, i have no idea
[09:10] <MozillaGuerrilla> to top it off i believe the version was actually kde but the x was gnome
[09:10] <JacobSingh> ZykoticK9: Thinkpad t60P... On 8.04 I think I had something setup that would do it for me... some ATI util, but I forget
[09:10] <JacobSingh> ZykoticK9: yeah, ATI kinda sucks it in Linux land... thanks, I'll poke aorund, try Envy, etc pray I don't hose me xconf :D
[09:10] <JacobSingh> (I'm sure I will)
[09:10] <MozillaGuerrilla> with a ton of leftover k aps from when he switched over
[09:10] <ZykoticK9> JacobSingh, Thinkpad's are workhorses!  great laptops really.  ATI is unfortunate
[09:11] <qop> ATi Linux drivers have improved a lot lately
[09:11] <Vigo> nuaimat: You may have jumbled up the layout, nit to technical there, but yes, adjusting/resizing tables can render a system unstable.
[09:11] <nuaimat> Vigo: no man , it's working now
[09:11] <Vigo> oh sweet
[09:12] <Vigo> nuaimat: 9.10 now?
[09:12] <JacobSingh> flamebait?  gnomeDo Dock vs. Cairo Dock?
[09:12] <nuaimat> Vigo: it's working but creation is slow
[09:12] <MozillaGuerrilla> how long should it take to install from a live disc?
[09:12] <nuaimat> Vigo: yes, i am on 9.10 now
[09:12] <nuaimat> swap creation during boot is taking too much time (around 30 seconds) , http://paste.ubuntu.com/407467/ , can anyone help ?
[09:13] <Vigo> nuaimat: Let me look at that,
[09:13] <nuaimat> Vigo: yes please
[09:15] <MozillaGuerrilla> how long is avg to install from cd ?
[09:16] <qop> I've try to... try Ubuntu guys but it always make something weird with my grub, something quite odd that I fail to figure out and unable to fix. Grub complain to not be able to find the image but the console does find it, the map and the rest of the grub settings are correct. If I try to boot using the console it say grub unknown error, and other Linux distros fail to recognize any bootable image either
[09:16] <moetunes> MozillaGuerrilla: depends on the comp but ~20min
[09:16] <_polto_> hello all
[09:16] <gardar> !hello _polto_
[09:17] <gardar> !hi _polto_
[09:17] <gardar> bah
[09:17] <gardar> !hello | _polto_
[09:17] <Vigo> nuaimat: That is uhm, ok, looks like a fresh or clean install could be the fix, that means back up all data that you need, then grab the ISO and clean install it, I could be very very wrong here, but it looks like many cross channel errors in the code.
[09:18] <mikolaj> where are you from?
[09:18] <_polto_> so much mess for a hello ...
[09:18] <Ascavasaion> I installed Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid but in Nautilus I do not have a Navigation Bar... any idea as to how I cna get it back.  I used to use smb://192.168.x.x/ to connect to Windows shares.
[09:18] <antonio_> cosa
[09:18] <antonio_> asda
[09:19] <moetunes> Ascavasaion: if you click view in the menubar is there an option for it?
[09:19] <_polto_> I updated my macbook pro to Lucid and the keyboard stop working in Xorg. In the console mode it is working. I do not fully understand how the keyboard is supposed to work in X now.
[09:19] <Vigo> !Lucid
[09:19] <Vigo> Ascavasaion: Did you see that?
[09:19] <Ascavasaion> Vigo, Nope.

[09:36] <Vigo> mouse: It is as risky as the user allows or implements it to be, I find it quite stable and user friendly.

[09:40] <moetunes> bugger's in kubuntu as well
[09:40] <gardar> mouse, the only problems I've heard about with gpared regard to moving partitions back and forth
[09:40] <mouse> davy:  I'm just going to use it to take space from vista and give it to ubuntu.
[09:41] <nuaimat> swap creation during boot is taking too much time (around 30 seconds) , http://paste.ubuntu.com/407467/ , can anyone help ?
[09:41] <davy> hm, can you resize with gparted?
[09:41] <davy> can't remember
[09:41] <budmaddock1> yes
[09:42] <davy> probably no problem then :)
[09:42] <mouse> gardar:  What do you mean by moving partitions back and forth?  Changing their physical placements on the hard drive?
[09:42] <gardar> yup
[09:42] <davy> ow
[09:42] <davy> make sure vista is on the first partition
[09:42] <MozillaGuerrilla> tango muchas problemos con mi tarjeta de wifi. por favor nesicito ayuda !
[09:42] <gardar> !es | MozillaGuerrilla
[09:42] <mouse> davy:  Why do I need to make sure vista is on the first?
[09:43] <davy> it doesn't like to boot otherwise
[09:43] <MozillaGuerrilla> no mames guey
[09:43] <davy> or you have to change configuratino in grub
[09:43] <davy> just put your linux behind your vista
[09:43] <davy> and all be fine
[09:43] <mouse> davy:  That won't change the automatic boot order?
[09:43] <Sacho> Tm_T: Sarda spams on join
[09:43] <davy> hm what?
[09:44] <davy> grub will autoconfigur when you install ubuntu
[09:44] <Sacho> thank you :)
[09:44] <MozillaGuerrilla> HELP pls!im having trouble with my wifi card. it's as if it disappears off the map all together and wont show up in any device listing. sometimes if I restart I can get it to come up but not always
[09:44] <mouse> When I start my computer ubuntu is set to default boot if I don't specifically tell it otherwise.
[09:45] <davy> ah it's already installed
[09:45] <mouse> Right.
[09:45] <davy> and what do you want to do?
[09:45] <davy> move it?
[09:45] <mouse> No just resize.
[09:45] <davy> ah
[09:45] <gardar> MozillaGuerrilla, are you sure the wifi is switched on?
[09:45] <davy> oh just go ahead :)
[09:45] <davy> that's no problem
[09:45] <moetunes> Tm_T: they're all in #kubuntu as well
[09:45] <MozillaGuerrilla> yes
[09:46] <davy> MozillaGuerrilla: is your wifi driver showing in dmesg
[09:46] <mouse> Yeah.  I forgot what my question was.  =P  Oh you said to make vista first.  Would that mean vista would be the default boot?
[09:46] <davy> no
[09:46] <gardar> mouse, Depends on how your grub is configured right now
[09:47] <MozillaGuerrilla> i run ubuntu in a Vbox so would it?
[09:47] <davy> don't mind mouse
[09:47] <davy> it's working now

[09:47] <mouse> Okay sorry.  Just getting confused for a second.
[09:47] <davy> there should be networkdevices?
[09:47] <moetunes> MozillaGuerrilla: it might be question for #vbox maybe
[09:48] <davy> is you hardware showing in the hypervisor

[09:48] <omkar> i was trying to install gyachi on ubuntu from a tar.gz package n it said it needed an auto make greater than 1.5

[09:49] <omkar> i downloaded automake 1.5 and tried to install now it said it wants autoconf greater than 2.60
[09:49] <omkar> is there any source package which won't ask for dependencies or any repo which has it build
[09:49] <roshan08> i have just installed ubuntu 9.10 on a dell laptop, it directly started running memtest, it has been running for more than 1 hour now, how to stop it

[09:49] <davy> dmesg | grep eth
[09:50] <davy> dmesg | grep wlan
[09:50] <mouse> One more question, how much information is needed to report a bug?
[09:50] <davy> how sure are you that it is a bug :)
[09:51] <MozillaGuerrilla> davy, thats the terminal cmmnd?
[09:51] <davy> yes MozillaGuerrilla
[09:51] <davy> open a terminal
[09:51] <gardar> mouse, if you submit it in launchpad, they will walk you through the steps
[09:51] <mouse> Well when I install a certain update it asks me to restart my computer and when I do the ubuntu partition is missing.  I hope that is a bug and not an intended part of ubuntu.
[09:51] <omkar> did any one heard abt my question
[09:52] <omkar> anyways i got it in apt
[09:52] <omkar> thanks

[10:02] <davy> ah
[10:02] <rocket16> Vigo: Oh, thanks
[10:02] <davy> it's possible that there is no output MozillaGuerrilla
[10:02] <davy> that just means he can't find eth devices

[10:42] <moetunes> rhend15: I don't know - can't see from here - try sudo apt-get install openssl   or similar

[10:45] <okay> hi. is there a good simple free program to send/receive txt msgs to cell phones?

[11:07] <neos> so i cant get on the net man v
[11:07] <neos> -_-
[11:07] <erUSUL> Yitih: gparted can do that
[11:08] <erUSUL> Yitih: just install the ntfsprogs package first
[11:08] <alden> how can i update to gnome 2.30?
[11:08] <Yitih> thanks
[11:08] <pwk> I have a amd64 ubuntu 9.10 box that can't execute x86 binaries, what do I need to apt-get to ensure the ability to execute x86 code?
[11:09] <fluxw0rm> When running the following: dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb (sdb is the USB device) and have the BIOS set to boot from the USB device first, Ubuntu still does not boot up, instead it goes to windows. Is Ubuntu Remix the only version I can use on a netbook and not a regular ubuntu CD image?
[11:10] <erUSUL> pwk: install ia32-lib packages
[11:10] <neos> so can u help me wiw the bug
[11:10] <erUSUL> pwk: install ia32-libs packages
[11:10] <neos> afk
[11:10] <MoLE_> ok neos if you're having a kernel crash with a fresh install the most likely causes are faulty hardware or a corrupted install disk
[11:10] <pwk> erUSUL, thanks I try
[11:10] <neos> is not it
[11:10] <alden> anyone install gnome 2.30 yet?
[11:10] <MoLE_> try booting from the live cd and go online
[11:10] <moetunes> fluxw0rm: you are copying the iso file not extracting it
[11:10] <neos> i can go on it
[11:10] <erUSUL> fluxw0rm: use the usb disc creator or unetbootin to create bootable usb sticks
[11:11] <erUSUL> fluxw0rm: just dd wont do
[11:11] <moetunes> !unetbootin | fluxw0rm
[11:12] <fluxw0rm> Hm I'll try unetbootin again. I tried it and for some reason unetbootin complained that my 4GB usb key was out of space using the 650MB ISO.
[11:12] <MoLE_> in that case neos it sounds like something went wrong with the install. If it was me I'd try reinstalling from the live cd and overwrite the existing install.
[11:12] <moetunes> fluxw0rm: what is the filesystem on the usb?
[11:12] <pwk> erUSUL, thanks works like a charm
[11:12] <fluxw0rm> moetunes: currently it is iso9660
[11:12]  * pwk bows out
[11:13] <neos> soz
[11:13] <alden> how can i update to gnome 2.30?
[11:13] <erUSUL> !latest | alden
[11:14] <moetunes> fluxw0rm: best if it is fat32
[11:14] <neos> my pc is new
[11:14] <moetunes> for unetbootin iirc flux
[11:14] <neos> i got ubntu on it
[11:14] <neos> and i cant get on the net
[11:15] <confidential> damn when i boot with the live cd the computer suddenly reboots without warning
[11:15] <MoLE_> neos try a reinstall
[11:15] <fluxw0rm> moetunes: I'll do that, thank you :)
[11:15] <neos> no
[11:15] <moetunes> np
[11:15] <itsmeagain> what is teh use of swap it never gets used for anything except as asting space on hdd
[11:15] <neos> is my bthomehub
[11:16] <mintsauce> What's the best way to upgrade svn from 1.4.6 to 1.5 in Ubuntu Hardy?
[11:16] <MoLE_> neos, sorry i can't help any further without knowing more detail
[11:16] <admin__> guys
[11:17] <moetunes> itsmeagain: for suspend/hibernate - I never go above 500mb but some apps use the swap
[11:17] <itsmeagain> non use swap at all
[11:17] <invitingdopeman> how can i hack into my local area network ?
[11:17] <itsmeagain> i have it moniterd on taskbar and it never uses it
[11:18] <itsmeagain> peaks out my ram but never uses swap
[11:18] <moetunes> itsmeagain: it is your choice to have or not - it is free software
[11:18] <itsmeagain> i thought swap was virtual ram but its obviously not
[11:18] <itsmeagain> you cant install ubuntu without swap
[11:18] <moetunes> itsmeagain: it is hard disk space
[11:19] <abchirk_> hey
[11:20] <moetunes> itsmeagain: that's 'cause ubuntu has to make sure those that don't know have a system that works - and imo it is a good idea to have
[11:20] <moetunes> itsmeagain: getting short on space?
[11:26] <The_Explorer> Greetings, Ubuntu community. I have a query. If i recall there is a way to input a command into bash, and insert a symbol to have it perform 2 tasks sequentially and based on output. IE "Build source -> install package" Could someone remind me how this is done? thankyou
[11:26] <hmw> Can I have (something like) "top" showing processes sorted by disk activity?
[11:26] <erUSUL> hmw: use "iotop"
[11:27] <hmw> The_Explorer: perhaps:  first_do && do_if_first_succeeded
[11:28] <gosh> hello! I installed Ubuntu 9.10 recently, but the XServer doesn't seem to work. It says "/dev/fb0: no such file or directory". The LiveCD worked perfectly though, and I've been using Ubuntu Hardy for years without any problems. What can I do?
[11:28] <IdleOne> The_Explorer: I think you are thinking of && so command1 && command2
[11:28] <moetunes> gosh: read the Xorg log in /var/log
[11:29] <IdleOne> && will perform command2 on successful completion of command1. if you use just one & it will perform command2 no matter the outcome of command1
[11:29] <moetunes> gosh: look for lines that start with EE
[11:29] <The_Explorer> so then it would be "configure && sh progr*" ?
[11:29] <gosh> moetunes: yes, it says (EE) /dev/fb0: no such file or directory
[11:29] <hmw> erUSUL: thanks
[11:29] <IdleOne> The_Explorer: I guess so but if you are building source you may want to run one command at a time
[11:30] <moetunes> gosh: should be an error above that
[11:30] <gosh> moetunes: okay, i'll look at the file and return then. Thanks!
[11:30] <moetunes> gosh: k
[11:30] <gosh> what's the log file called exactly, moetunes?
[11:31] <r00t93> hi
[11:31] <The_Explorer> IdleOne, I understand and appreciate your advice fully. This is meerly experimentation on my part to better understanding Linux and attempting to write scripts. It is difficult to find documentation of specific natures.
[11:31] <moetunes> /var/log/Xorg.0.log   gosh
[11:31] <gosh> thanks!
[11:31] <moetunes> :)
[11:31] <hmw> gosh: grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:32] <gosh> I'll try that, thanks hmw and moetunes .. see you soon ;)
[11:32] <IdleOne> The_Explorer: well then experiment away :) there is also #linux if you need more general advice about linux
[11:32] <rags> how can I loop mount the initial ramdisk? this "sudo mount -o loop /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-24-server /mnt" asks for the file system type....
[11:33] <The_Explorer> IdleOne: Unfortunately such channels are underpopulated. This being among the most popular of distributions, draws a crowd of people who have both run into problems and solved those problems alike. Chances of learning in this room are exponentially higher.
[11:34] <thenetduck> hey when I type in sudo pdnsd-ctl empty-cache it doesn't work. It says the command isn't found
[11:34] <thenetduck> how can I fix that?
[11:34] <thenetduck> I"m confused ;(
[11:34] <IdleOne> The_Explorer: agreed, just remember that this channel is focused on support for ubuntu, that said, a lot of times people will help more more general questions.
[11:34] <IdleOne> s/more/with
[11:35] <IdleOne> Well I am off. have a good day Ubuntueros!
[11:35] <IdleOne> Ubunteros*

[11:41] <nikolam> do you know someone on Irc that is from canonical?
[11:41] <erUSUL> rags: is compressed « file /boot/initrd.img-* »
[11:41] <erUSUL> !hi | ABC
[11:41] <nikolam> do not yell, please ABC

[11:43] <eLeNa> A question
[11:43] <eLeNa> How can i go to the ubuntu-es spanish channel=

[11:43] <Devil_Wang> eLeNa: what is your question?
[11:43] <erUSUL> !es | eLeNa
[11:43] <moetunes> !es
[11:43] <Devil_Wang> eLeNa: faint
[11:43] <theadmin> eLeNa: type "/join #ubuntu-es"
[11:43] <rocket16> Type "/join #ubunti-es"
[11:44] <EBC99> Thank you very much!
[11:44] <theadmin> rocket16: #ubuntu-es, not #ubunti-es
[11:44] <rocket16> theadmin: Oh sorry, typing error,
[11:45] <r00t93> hi
[11:45] <rocket16> !hi | r00t93
[11:46] <theadmin> OOo 3.2 is sweet, loads in seconds :)
[11:46] <ManDay> Ubuntu, agai, so quiet, I kinda like that... Okay, here my question: Is there a configuration interface to nautilus so I can add an item to the menu which runs a proram and hands it the current directory?
[11:47] <ManDay> In my case I want an "open terminal" which opens a terminal in the specific dir.
[11:48] <ManDay> Why so silent?
[11:48] <ManDay> Any one here?
[11:48] <theadmin> ManDay: I am. Just it seems that nobody knows.
[11:49] <ManDay> I know about you theadmin :P
[11:49] <moetunes> ManDay: what does a right click in nautilus produce ?
[11:49] <theadmin> ManDay: I recall there being a plugin for open terminal here in nautilus, lemme find that
[11:49] <ManDay> moetunes, a right click produces a contex menu?
[11:49] <theadmin> ManDay: Do this: sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[11:49] <moetunes> ManDay: no "open terminal here"?
[11:50] <ManDay> theadmin, actually, I dont only want it to open a terminal but run an app (screen) in that term - can that do that?
[11:50] <moetunes> primitive
[11:50] <ManDay> moetunes, erm, no... :P
[11:50] <theadmin> ManDay: Hm. Not sure... maybe. I don't use it.
[11:50] <rags> erUSUL: randisk seems to be a cpio archive...i thought they were always gunzipped
[11:51] <erUSUL> rags: clearly not the case ;) gzip is cheap
[11:51] <diddly> hi i added a keyboard shortcut for gnome-terminal, but when it comes up its not in my home its in /
[11:51] <ManDay> diddly, what is the command you set the keyboard shortcut to?
[11:52] <diddly> ManDay: gnome-terminal
[11:52] <ManDay> (did you set it in compiz=
[11:52] <ManDay> ?
[11:52] <diddly> ManDay: no i set it in preferences->keyboard shortcuts
[11:52] <ManDay> diddly, do you use compiz?
[11:53] <ManDay> If yes try setting it there in the gnome compaibility section
[11:53] <rocket16> !compiz | diddly
[11:53] <diddly> ManDay: k i'll look in there. i havent used gnome regularly in 8 years :P thanks!
[11:54] <theadmin> diddly: try changing the command to gnome-terminal --working-directory=/home/you
[11:54] <ManDay> diddly, if nothing works you can always call gnome-terminal...
[11:54] <ManDay> arg theadmin beat me to it
[11:55] <diddly> ManDay: hehehe yeah, actually there is a setting (different key binding) in compiz->gnome compat. it works fine, and looks like it has the same config as mine.  oh well i have a solution
[11:55] <diddly> ManDay: theadmin thanks guys
[11:57] <madura> hello
[11:57] <theadmin> Hi, madura
[11:58] <madura> theadmin hi
[11:58] <theadmin> madura: Have any Ubuntu questions? If so, ask them
[11:59] <madura> theadmin not much for now just came in to offer any help if i can ..
[11:59] <theadmin> madura: Oh. Well, sorry.
[12:02] <The_Explorer> How big do you think a / partition needs to be with an off mounted home directory?
[12:02] <madura> theadmin :) BTW you know where i can find good tutorials for glade? (for C)
[12:02] <theadmin> The_Explorer: 8 gigs or so, methinks, will be enough
[12:03] <theadmin> madura: No idea about what glade even is. I actually misread that as "glados" :/
[12:03] <rww> The_Explorer: Ubuntu's recommendation is 8GB, I generally go with 10GB.
[12:04] <The_Explorer> Well i guess ill just give it 15 since i have the room and... just in case.
[12:04] <madura> theadmin :)
[12:05] <madura> The_Explorer i just checked it takes around 6 GB
[12:05]  * theadmin has 12 gigs used
[12:05] <theadmin> But i guess it's all those movies i have :D
[12:05] <madura> theadmin you store them in root dir ? :P
[12:06] <theadmin> madura: I just don't have a separate /home partition
[12:06] <p0r0h> vsem privet
[12:07] <madura> theadmin ah i thought 12GB was after removing /home
[12:07] <theadmin> p0r0h: Для поддержки на русском языке пожалуйста обратитесь в #ubuntu-ru
[12:07] <theadmin> huh, he left
[12:07] <gosh> hello, i've been here a few minutes ago with my Xserver-problem, and i got my Xorg.log here http://nopaste.info/9a35655fc3.html in line 277 is the only error. moetunes, still here? :>
[12:08] <moetunes> gosh: looking
[12:08] <ManDay> theadmin, do you actually speak russian or did you just copy it from ubottu? :)
[12:08] <theadmin> ManDay: I do, I live in russia.
[12:08] <ManDay> !ru
[12:08] <obiwan_> hi guys
[12:09] <ManDay> Ok I see the msg is another
[12:09] <ManDay> That would explain why you speak russian then
[12:09] <obiwan_> guys one quick question, what's the simplest program to record voice from micro?
[12:09] <ManDay> Autiorecorder, obiwan_ - start > programs > accessoires >> entertainment
[12:09] <obiwan_> i'm having issues with micro in wine, and i wanna check if it works well out of it. so i need some voic recorder app
[12:09] <ManDay> :D
[12:09] <theadmin> obiwan_: Ubuntu has some built-in sound recorder
[12:09] <obiwan_> which theadmin ? i'm looking for on internet and stuff
[12:10] <multiverse72> hi guys, any utility that could convert file names to vfat valid ones? I've got a lot of music with accented characters that I want to copy, but don't want to rename one by one. thanks
[12:10] <obiwan_> oh i found theadmin ahah
[12:10] <ManDay> multiverse72, you could find -exec it
[12:10] <obiwan_> thanks man
[12:10] <theadmin> obiwan_: gnome-sound-recorder :D
[12:10] <obiwan_> actually gnome-sound-rec
[12:10] <theadmin> oh %)
[12:11] <obiwan_> i searched for gnome-sound-recorder in apt and couldn't find it hee
[12:11] <ManDay> multiverse72, find -exec and then mv with grep (juts a guess)
[12:13] <obiwan_> so it works,
[12:13] <obiwan_> omg, i'm so fed up of the sound issues in karmic
[12:13] <moetunes> gosh: seems the inbuilt driver has an issue with your card - can you enable the proprietry driver?
[12:14] <madura> obiwan_ you might have an video card that does audio too
[12:14] <gosh> moetunes: i'm not really a pro at linux... how can I enable that driver?
[12:14] <multiverse72> ManDay, -exec? I don't understand sorry.
[12:15] <moetunes> gosh: on a server atm - there's a menu entry under system apparently - someone will speak up
[12:16] <madura> multiverse72 use find <path> | grep [wildcards for accented chars]
[12:16] <gosh> moetunes: sorry, I dont understand.. what do you mean?
[12:16] <moetunes> !nvidia
[12:16] <moetunes> gosh: ^^
[12:16] <yuurei> #ubuntu.fr
[12:16] <ManDay> multiverse72, find (man find) can find files by name and type. if you pass it the -exec argument you can have it execute a command on each file it finds. make this command an according mv, renaming the files from whatever they are to something they should be with GREP and apply this to your files
[12:16] <gosh> okay :)
[12:17] <obiwan_> madura: i don't hehe actually i don't have video card just a cheapo intell chipset hehe
[12:17] <moetunes> gosh: noone spoke up - and I don't have a giu atm...
[12:17] <moetunes> and I don't nvidia
[12:18] <madura> obiwan_ hmm my intel chipset gets recognized whats your mobo?
[12:18] <gosh> moetunes: okay, thank you! I will try what I can do with this article. Cant be too difficult activating that other driver, right?
[12:18] <obiwan_> madura: everything works fine,
[12:19] <conb123> Hey just wondering what your opinion on arch linux is? I might give it a try.
[12:19] <madura> gosh: that doesnt seem like a big prob tho?.. /dev/fd0 is floopy as far as i know :S
[12:19] <moetunes> gosh: afaik there is a menu entry for prop drivers - anyone?
[12:19] <obiwan_> madura: thing is the're some sort of polthergeist in my machine. sound suddenly goes when playing youtube vids, or in steam,
[12:19] <multiverse72> madura, oooh.. I get it, like 'find ~/Music | grep -v :alnum:' but how does that change them to the appropriate characters?
[12:19] <moetunes> madura: it is for nvidia driver
[12:19] <obiwan_> madura: i know it's a pulseaudio/alsa thing i read about it
[12:20] <gosh> madura: Afaik is fb0 Framebuffer..? I have a notebook so there is no floppy
[12:20] <Ddorda> did anyone try Ubuntu on a macbook?

[12:21] <obiwan_> grub2-efi && native boot
[12:22] <gosh> no prob, madura ;)
[12:22] <lazarus> obiwan_, 15 secs to boot here :)
[12:22] <madura> gosh is your video driver broken ?
[12:22] <obiwan_> np Ddorda , btw they say lucid will boot up even faster
[12:22] <Ddorda> obiwan_: have you found any probkems using Ubuntu on a macbooc?
[12:22] <skuld_kid> Question about logs and rotation.  Last night I discovered my hard drive was full.  Had a syslog of over 50G, syslog.1 over 25G, and a daemon log of over 80G.  How do I configure my logrotate.conf to rotate these files...I don't see anything defined for these critical logs.
[12:22] <gosh> madura: I dont know, seems so. Its a fresh installation, just yesterday!
[12:22] <Ddorda> macbook*
[12:23] <gosh> madura: Xserver does not start, i only get a textconsole.
[12:23] <obiwan_> lazarus: nice heheh , guess you treat your machine better than i do xD
[12:23] <madura> gosh thats 9.10 right? did the live CD go ok?
[12:23] <moetunes> madura: I'm with no gui atm - what's the menu to install proprietry nvidia drivers for gosh ?
[12:23] <vimusero> guys, how i can install ubuntu without any soft?
[12:23] <gosh> madura: yes, 9.10. LiveCD was running perfecty
[12:23] <erUSUL> skuld_kid: something is spamming your logs.
[12:24] <ardchoille> moetunes: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers ?
[12:24] <obiwan_> Ddorda: lots of them, isight, touchpad, and more i just can't remember i got used to them hehe
[12:24] <lazarus> obiwan_, well you are running ubuntu on a mac so ...lol
[12:24] <erUSUL> skuld_kid: you should find the root cause. logrotate cannot do much with GiB sized logs
[12:24] <vimusero> HELP, how i can install ubuntu without any soft?
[12:24] <erUSUL> !minimal | vimusero
[12:24] <skuld_kid> can't it limit the size of a log file?
[12:24] <moetunes> gosh: <ardchoille> moetunes: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[12:24] <madura> gosh so no GUI what so ever? like it boots up to a corrupted screen
[12:24] <obiwan_> lazarus: :P hehe
[12:24] <vimusero> erUSUL, ty! luv u
[12:24] <moetunes> thnx ardchoille :)
[12:24] <erUSUL> skuld_kid: it just compress the old log and archive it for some time then removes it
[12:24] <ardchoille> yw
[12:24] <skuld_kid> a few days ago I had a power outage multiple times, caused the mysql databases to corrupt.  I think I fixed most of that
[12:24] <Ghost|BTFH> vimusero: First, we have to understand what you're saying.  Currently that's a bit beyond our powers.  Could you maybe explain what you're trying to say a little better?
[12:24] <Ddorda> obiwan_: iSight? isn't it a program? and what's the problem with the touchpad?
[12:24] <gosh> I dont have any GUI, only text console tty1-x, madura
[12:25] <obiwan_> Ddorda: isight is the inbuilt camera
[12:25] <Ddorda> obiwan_: it doesn't work?
[12:25] <erUSUL> skuld_kid: maybe mysqld is spamming the logs with errors. open them and take a look should be pretty obvious what is going on
[12:25] <vimusero> Ghost|BTFH: bad english) i want clear system and install all what i want.. custom DE,WM. soft..
[12:25] <lazarus> obiwan_, atleast your running ubuntu on it i guess thats no bad
[12:25] <obiwan_> Ddorda: not by default, you needa get apple's firmware cuz it's a privative thingo iirc
[12:26] <madura> try installing the nvidia drivers thru terminal and see i think it'll work
[12:26] <Ghost|BTFH> vimusero: What's your main language?
[12:26] <gosh> madura: yeah, i'll try that ...
[12:26] <Ddorda> obiwan_: but in the end it works, right?
[12:26] <theadmin> Whoever wanted renaming help, here you go, a command: read y && let x=0 && find -exec let x=x+1 \&\& mv {} '$y-$x' \;
[12:26] <skuld_kid> I notice that msyql errors out when it tries to start.  InnoDB corruption, but I don't think I've got any InnoDB's
[12:28] <lazarus> how would i edit config files using a bash script
[12:28] <obiwan_> Ddorda: also had problems with broadcom driver , but it's fully supported by now so you won't have to deal with theese issues hehe
[12:28] <obiwan_> Ddorda: yeah Ddorda .
[12:28] <vimusero> Ghost|BTFH: russian
[12:28] <SaintSinner> How can I assign an IP address to one of my Ethernet cards? System -> Administration -> . . . ??
[12:29] <obiwan_> Ddorda: i guess everything works if you put enough effort on it. i just came to a point where i don't care if something works or not. i'm not using optical sound output every day you know heheh
[12:29] <madura> gosh: xserver-xorg-video-nv install that
[12:29] <lazarus> SaintSinner, set it from your router thats what i did
[12:29] <gosh> madura: with apt-get and all that?
[12:29] <theadmin> SaintSinner: I think you need to use a terminal, maybe ifconfig... read manuals on it
[12:29] <obiwan_> lazarus: ubuntu works out of the box, that's good enough hehhe
[12:29] <SaintSinner> ok
[12:29] <madura> gosh : yea
[12:30] <gosh> kay
[12:30] <Ghost|BTFH> vimusero: Check your messages.
[12:30] <lazarus> obiwan_, better than xp?
[12:30] <erUSUL> SaintSinner: System>Preferences>Network Connections
[12:30] <obiwan_> well, cs time, cya later bye guys :) happy ubunting! :)
[12:30] <gosh> madura: shouldn't I go for those nvidia-glx drivers?
[12:30] <obiwan_> lazarus: xp is great for me, i have no complaints aobut it
[12:30] <erUSUL> SaintSinner: System>Preferences>Network Configuration
[12:31] <obiwan_> lazarus: but i just preffer linux
[12:31] <SaintSinner> erUSUL: there are no any `virtual' cards from VirtualBox
[12:31] <obiwan_> it's more developer oriented os, and i like it's features
[12:31] <lazarus> obiwan_, good choice
[12:31] <erUSUL> SaintSinner: ubuntu is running inside VirtualBox ?
[12:31] <SaintSinner> erUSUL: Ubuntu is host, Windows XP is vitrualised
[12:32] <madura> gosh well you should :P(i use an ATI so i gave u the 1st one i found i thought it was the binary one)
[12:32] <a16bitsoft> anyone have any luck getting a 3G NetBook modem working with new Ubuntu ?
[12:32] <theadmin> a16bitsoft: "new"? 10.04?
[12:32] <a16bitsoft> yes
[12:32] <a16bitsoft> theadmin - yes
[12:32] <SaintSinner> I'll try ifconfig after I will have finished the installation of Windows 7
[12:32] <theadmin> a16bitsoft: For support on this version go to #ubuntu+1, it is not released and not stable
[12:32] <gosh> madura: okay, I'll try that then ... I heard somewhere that there is some script (envy?) what does all the work for me :)
[12:32] <Explore2> is there any channel for skype?
[12:33] <abhinav> !lucid | a16bitsoft
[12:33] <erUSUL> SaintSinner: well i spect the host OS to have a bridge or something like that not a virtual card... but you should ask in #vbox
[12:33] <lazarus> how would i edit config files using a bash script
[12:33] <SaintSinner> OK
[12:33] <SaintSinner> erUSUL: I thpught it simply installs cards to host and to the virtualised system
[12:33] <erUSUL> lazarus: used sed or ed (if you just want to add a line to the end you can echo "something" >> file )
[12:34] <a16bitsoft> I am actually a devoted Linux Mint user, but thought I would give beta of new ubuntu a try using a liveUSB drive
[12:34] <erUSUL> lazarus: ask in #bash for more help
[12:34] <madura> gosh well there is one it's package is envyng-core
[12:34] <lazarus> erUSUL, thanks
[12:35] <gosh> okay madura, I will go for that. Need to reboot now, ubuntu works on this same machine. Thanks for your help!
[12:35] <gosh> moetunes, thanks as well!
[12:35] <madura> gosh ok :)
[12:35] <moetunes> np gosh

[12:37] <remco_> I looked in .mozilla-thunderbird
[12:37] <remco_> but dont see any "tmp" or "Cache" folder
[12:37] <davy> hm
[12:37] <davy> have you checked /tmp maybe?
[12:37] <davy> just guessing here
[12:37] <remco_> I have an error "Cant write to temp" when sending mail
[12:37] <davy> strange
[12:37] <remco_> I looked in /tmp but didnt see anything related to thunderbird ..
[12:38] <remco_> permissions seem ok on all those folders ..
[12:38] <davy> uhu
[12:38] <davy> was after an update
[12:38] <davy> was it after an update
[12:38] <mamous> hello all
[12:38] <mamous> how are you 2day
[12:38] <mamous> I want to ask
[12:38] <remco_> I "dd" from another drive everything works except this

[12:38] <davy> hm strange
[12:39] <mamous> when I close Evolution , Does it check for emails when it is closed
[12:39] <mamous> ?
[12:39] <erUSUL> mamous: no afaics
[12:39] <remco_> been googling for the past hour without success :(
[12:39] <mamous> yes or no ?
[12:40] <erUSUL> mamous: no; As Far As I Can See
[12:40] <mamous> so I should make it open 24/7 if I want it to auto check for emails ?
[12:40] <SaintSinner> I will follow to guidelines at the VirtualBox website
[12:40] <remco_> "unable to save your message as draft error writing temporary file" is the exact message when I try to send mail
[12:42] <sixenonep> Hi Guys, I can access the web fine with my eth0 but when I enable wireless, I can only connect via ip #'s
[12:43] <remco_> check your /etc/resolv.conf file when you're connected with wifi
[12:43] <C-S-B-N900> sixenonep: have you got a dns server?
[12:44] <remco_> if there is no dns, as a workaround copy the dns that you have in there when connected through ethernet and paste it in there when on wifi
[12:44] <Cheery> How to get spacenavigator working in ubuntu?
[12:45] <sixenonep> dns is standard <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:45] <mamous> who here is an ubuntu gamer ?
[12:45] <remco_> do you get a resolution in command line ?  dig www.google.com
[12:45] <coz_> Cheery,  is this a game?
[12:45] <bazhang> Cheery, windows app?
[12:45] <Jovaro> is is possible to force all new files and directories inside some directory to have group X?
[12:45] <bazhang> mamous, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[12:45] <sixenonep> Not sure wht ETH0 is fine, though WLAN has problems, my other laptop is fine via wireless......
[12:45] <llutz> Jovaro: man chmod (sgid)
[12:45] <jrib> Jovaro: have to go, but setgid on the directory will work
[12:46] <Ghost|BTFH> mamous: I Ubuntu, and game.
[12:46] <Jovaro> thanks llutz and jrib, I'll look into that!
[12:47] <coz_> Cheery,  oh not a game
[12:47] <Cheery> coz_: bazhang: if you guys would google a bit, you'd know immediately. :)
[12:48] <coz_> Cheery,  well there a thougsand "spacenavigators" when you google...asking to specify wasnt too off base :)
[12:48] <Cheery> I had it already working, last time I had to prevent xorg from recognizing that device.
[12:48] <Jovaro> is it the setsid package one needs for setgid?
[12:48] <llutz> Jovaro: sgid, chmod g+s
[12:49] <Jovaro> aha
[12:51] <Explore2> is there any channel for skype?
[12:52] <coz_> Explore2,  not that I am aware of
[12:52] <iceroot> Explore2: dont think you will find it in FREEnode
[12:52] <sixenonep> thanks guys
[12:53] <sixenonep> Wifi is on :D
[12:54] <kubanc> where is my audio cd-rom location. in my media folder there are cdrom and cdrom0 folders, but they are empty?
[12:55] <Ghost|BTFH> kubanc: It should auto-load the Audio CD and should give you an icon on the desktop.  If it doesn't, you might want to check the CD.
[12:56] <kubanc> Ghost|BTFH, yes, but i would like to open CD with winamp...
[12:56] <C-S-B-N900> also, the mount point is often the name of the disc.
[12:56] <Myion> Why doesn't Starcraft run on Ubuntu :/ Ubuntu sucks
[12:56] <C-S-B-N900> check in dmesg.
[12:56] <rww> Why doesn't Starcraft run on Ubuntu :/ Starcraft sucks
[12:56] <C-S-B-N900> Myion: that ot and unneeded.
[12:57] <Ghost|BTFH> I'd have to agree with rww
[12:57] <C-S-B-N900> oh great, trolling.
[12:57] <Myion> What?  My windows are clean, washed them yesterday
[12:57] <Ghost|BTFH> Myion:  It's a Windows app, and to my knowledge, it works fine in WINE
[12:58] <bazhang> Myion, check the appdb and /join #winehq
[12:58] <Jovaro> Is it possible to have a new directory copy all its permissions from the parent directory?
[12:58] <Myion> Okay, thanks guys, you made my mood better :3
[12:58] <bazhang> !appdb | Myion
[12:58] <madura1> omg ubottu is intelligent!! :D
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> thanks ubottu
[13:00] <Ghost|BTFH> Don't say that madura1
[13:00] <Joric> are you really removing gimp from distro
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> Joric:  there is no removing of gimp from ubuntu. its not Installed by default. thats all.
[13:00] <Ghost|BTFH> madura1: He's only as intelligent as his programmers...and they don't need a bigger ego. ;)
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> Joric:  if you want it.. install it.
[13:00] <Joric> Dr_Willis, is it still remain on livecd
[13:01] <madura1> Ghost|BTFH: well they have done good!
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> Joric:  i doubt it.
[13:01] <C-S-B-N900> i think if you upgrading and you have gimp, youll still have gimp.
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> If it was on the live cd.. you may as well install it also. :)
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> C-S-B-N900:  that applies to most apps you install
[13:02] <C-S-B-N900> i know
[13:02] <reuben> hello, how do i remove a package without removing dependencies? somebody has made everything dependent on plymouth, and plymouth is stopping my system from booting
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> ive watched the instller befor. it seems to install everything thats on the live-cd - then removes some stuff. ( theinstaller and a few other tools)
[13:02] <C-S-B-N900> just pointing out the fact that most arent going to realise the change, just new/fresh installers.
[13:02] <reuben> see #552046
[13:02] <rww> reuben: Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[13:03] <Ghost|BTFH> madura1: Yeah, they did.  But don't tell them that. ;)
[13:03] <reuben> lucid beta 1
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> reuben:  you could just disable the plymouth service from starting up. by renaming/moveing the /etc/init/plymouth* scripts
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> reuben:  and see #ubuntu+1 channel for  lucid
[13:03] <madura1> Ghost|BTFH :P
[13:03] <reuben> Dr_Willis  ok cool
[13:03] <rww> reuben: Discussion and support for that is in #ubuntu+1. And last I checked, which admittedly was a month or so ago, it wasn't a depend, just a recommend.
[13:03] <C-S-B-N900> has anyone moved from a standard install to lvm?
[13:03] <budmaddock1> chmod -R permissions directory changes everything recursively.
[13:04] <reuben> rww: yeah, they just switched the dependencies last night i guess. i was unable to remove it when testing yesterday
[13:04] <rww> reuben: well that's silly of them :(
[13:05] <Ghost|BTFH> Man, I'd give anything if they came up with a google translate for Ubuntu.
[13:06] <notlistening> are the update servers down at the moment?
[13:06] <Ghost|BTFH> That is probably the most impressive program I've seen yet for translation services.
[13:06] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,  I believe there is one
[13:06] <notlistening> UK ones ;)
[13:06] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: I'll be your best buddy if you tell me what it is. :)
[13:06] <Ghost|BTFH> notlistening: Karmic 9.10?
[13:06] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,  I am assuming you meant language translator?
[13:06] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: Yes.
[13:06] <Jovaro> Is it possible to override the global umask for some specific directories?
[13:06] <notlistening> yup
[13:07] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: I'd love one that has as many languages as google translate.
[13:07] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,   here's a screenshot   http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/screenshot1.png
[13:07] <Ghost|BTFH> notlistening: Go into your repository list in synaptic and tell it to "pick the best server" near you.
[13:07] <flad> hey ubuntuers, who is up for a ubuntu case?
[13:07] <Ghost|BTFH> notlistening: The one you're connected to by default might be down.
[13:08] <crack05> hi
[13:08] <abchirk_> hey
[13:08] <crack05> is there any games in ubuntu ?
[13:08] <pinoyskull> anyone using amazon ec2?
[13:08] <abchirk_> On a upgrade when i logged in again over ssh? How can I recover the upgrade process which is still running
[13:08] <coz_> crack05,  yeah...solitaire   chess  a bunch like that
[13:09] <C-S-B-N900> abchirk_: you need to using screen
[13:09] <crack05> coz_ no football game ??
[13:09] <notlistening> abchirk, the upgrade process will have quit
[13:09] <coz_> crack05,  :)  no nothing like that be default anyway :)
[13:09] <notlistening> abchirk_, run sudo apt-get upgrade and it will tell you what to do
[13:09] <crack05> mmm ok
[13:10] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,   I think this is the link    http://code.google.com/p/google-translate-desktop/
[13:10] <flad> i have ubuntu server, and it doesnt have a GUI. here's the case: in order to install anything i.e a GUI, i need internet. I have of course googled how to connect and all that, but i use a USB-wireless adapter, and i need to install it, in order to get online
[13:10] <flad> any clues?
[13:10] <budmaddock1> Backup before upgrading.
[13:11] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: Like most things, if I just open my eyes and actually search the repositories like I gripe at everyone else to do, I find what I need...there's like 3 programs in the repos that will link to Google Translate.
[13:11] <C-S-B-N900> flad: what usb wireless adaptor?
[13:11] <C-S-B-N900> and why is your server running on wifi?
[13:11] <flad> C-S-B-N900: its a D-link USB
[13:11] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,  ah ok ...yep  take the sunglasses off and you may see a few things in the repos :)
[13:11] <C-S-B-N900> flad: chipset?
[13:12] <flad> uhm, let me check
[13:12] <C-S-B-N900> lsusb
[13:12] <notlistening> Update server list umm failed but i am connected to the internet
[13:12] <C-S-B-N900> flad: also check dmesg
[13:13] <flad> D-link DWA-140. there is information about FCC ID, IC H/W ver, F/W ver (hardware, firmware?)  S/N and MAC
[13:13] <abchirk_> notlistening, it is still downloading I see it on df -m. So i wait and then I do aptitude upgrade?
[13:13] <orflon> hello, how can I send e-mail with mailx? Actually the e-mail is not sent when I don't specify a "from address". Thanks
[13:13] <C-S-B-N900> flad: have you brought the device up?
[13:13] <notlistening> df -m
[13:14] <kubuntu-ku> my kubuntu's kde suddenly froze, just black screen, can't return to desktop, can't do sticky keys too, except alt-tab which just show amarok and nothing else . . . could somebody help ?
[13:14] <C-S-B-N900> kubuntu-ku: try #kubuntu
[13:14] <flad> C-S-B-N900: hmm, what do you mean by that? i have it here, its connected via usb, but the light isnt flashing on the device
[13:15] <judgepg> kubuntu-ku: hit CTRL+ALT+F1, login as root and type /etc/init.d/kde restart

[13:15] <flad> C-S-B-N900: it practically a usb-stick
[13:15] <flad> ill check
[13:16] <C-S-B-N900> flad: it might not be wlan0
[13:16] <abchirk_> ok it stopped
[13:16] <flad> C-S-B-N900: wlan0 ERROR whilegetting interface flags: No sucj devise
[13:16] <flad> device
[13:16] <isolat3dsh33p> hello guys, how to install nautilus-actions in 9.10?
[13:17] <C-S-B-N900> flad: does the interface appear in ifconfig?
[13:17] <flad> only eth0
[13:17] <flad> and lo
[13:18] <C-S-B-N900> flad: well then you need to know what module supports the chipset, modprobe it.
[13:18] <C-S-B-N900> you might need fw though.
[13:18] <C-S-B-N900> depending on the chipset.
[13:19] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: Wow, the Google Translate Desktop is sweet.  It's 100% java, just click 'n run.
[13:19] <flad> C-S-B-N900: in sorry, im so new to this textbased kind. modprobe and fw is kinda diffuse to me
[13:19] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,  there you go :)
[13:19] <Ghost|BTFH> coz_: Thanks very much for the help.
[13:19] <coz_> Ghost|BTFH,  no problem
[13:20] <Ghost|BTFH> See? I come in here to help others, didn't even know I needed help myself.
[13:20] <C-S-B-N900> flad: ok, first work out exactly what chipset you have.
[13:20] <flad> C-S-B-N900: okay, where would i find that information
[13:20] <C-S-B-N900> well lsusb -vv
[13:20] <C-S-B-N900> will give you info
[13:20] <sine0> i want to edit my username or i want to add another account
[13:21] <sine0> how can i do that from command like
[13:21] <sine0> sudo useradd
[13:21] <sine0> ?
[13:21] <C-S-B-N900> sine0: that will create a new user.
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> sudo adduser billgates
[13:22] <flad> C-S-B-N900: a whole lot of information.
[13:22] <aiya> Is anyone has idea how to make shell and give to people all.Just like in shellium.
