[07:08] <Circs> dimension128: Not a problem. I actually have a workstation with a 3.8 P4 and I turned off hyperthreading for my purposes.
[07:08] <boss> n8tuser: choose xdmcp from the options menu at the login screen, and it gives a list of available hosts (which i have 1, which is <IP_ADDRESS>)... i click it and i get to the same screen i did with the X command
[07:08] <tonyyarusso> peepsalot: Right-click or double-click the volume applet, go to the "Switches" tab in the Volume Control manager, and select "Headphone Jack Sense".
[07:09] <topo_1968> Hallo
[07:09] <JakPete> hello
[07:09] <dimension128> Circs: Does it really work better to turn it off when your running non ht apps? Did you see a noticeable performance gain?
[07:09] <topo_1968> Italian or english only?
[07:09] <JakPete> can I ask for help here?
[07:10] <peepsalot> tonyyarusso, hmm, mine doesn't have that switch.  i wonder if it's just a crappy sound card.  it's onboard Asus m2n-e
[07:10] <quibbler> !it
[07:10] <tonyyarusso> peepsalot: could be yeah
[07:10] <Circs> dimension128: Not really, but I kept getting strange errors when the load would climb and I'd try to use something else at the same time.
[07:10] <n8tuser> boss-> when you just have wireless on your laptop, do you have to do anything to get it associated and have wireless access or just turn it on and get a wireless outright?
[07:10] <topo_1968> OK grazie a n8tuser>
[07:11] <dimension128> Circs: Well gotta get to bed. Thanks again.
[07:11] <boss> n8tuser: when i turn it on and i'm logged in, it connects automatically to my router with the network-manager applet.  but that's because i have a saved configuration there... before i set that up in network-manager (which isn't started until login) it would ask me for the wpa key
[07:12] <JakPete> can I ask for help in this room?
[07:13] <quibbler> !ask
[07:13] <boss> n8tuser: pm me your paypal email and i'll transfer the $ now... i trust you won't disappear :P
[07:13] <n8tuser> boss-> then you need to setup your /etc/network/interfaces  so it auto connects upon boot (withou you needing to login)
[07:13] <JakPete> ok
[07:14] <n8tuser> boss may I request.. donate it to a very good cause.. like st jude or salvation army ( i dont know if they have these in uk)
[07:14] <AgentHeX> i'm having a problem with pulseaudio.  it seems when i play a youtube video through Adobe Flash Player 10, i cannot get audio playback from any program.  it simply hangs.  so far, i've only been able to revive playback by rebooting my system.  anyone have a workaround?
[07:14] <boss> n8tuser: half to a good cause, half to you?
[07:14] <n8tuser> boss all of it
[07:15] <MoLE_> AgentHeX, which ubuntu are you using?
[07:15] <AgentHeX> 8.04.2
[07:15] <boss> n8tuser thanks for your help, i'll stay in the channel and let you know where it's gone
[07:15] <n8tuser> boss you're welcome
[07:15] <AgentHeX> MoLE_: and i've enabled hardy-proposed as well as hardy-backports, but i doubt this has any relevance.
[07:15] <n8tuser> boss  getting back to your issue, the auto connect at boot should be configured in /etc/network/interfaces
[07:15] <nuxil> donate to ubuntu
[07:16] <MoLE_> AgentHeX, IIRC it's a known issue for 8.04, have you read the wiki.ubuntu.com entry on pulseaudio and flash?
[07:16] <boss> n8tuser any idea how i can do that?
[07:16] <AgentHeX> no.  i'll check that out.  i looked on launchpad for bug reports but didn't find anything.
[07:16] <wwbwwb> in my home,2pc,one xp,another xubuntu.when the two connect the internet,the xubuntu is wrong.when the xubuntu connect the internet alone,it's good.what's the matter?
[07:17] <n8tuser> boss hang a few...let me check something
[07:17] <boss> n8tuser i looked at an example file online and it looks pretty daunting...thanks
[07:17] <n8tuser> boss->  you are using 8.10 ?
[07:18] <syntac> hi, my wireless connection is slow for some reason. it stays around 25kB/s where as my wired connection is limited by my ISP (over 1MB/s).  What is the deal with the wireless?  I'm using 8.10 new install
[07:18] <MoLE_> AgentHeX, http://humanpenguin.wordpress.com/2008/08/18/pulseaudio-and-flash-issues-in-ubuntu-804-resolved-at-last/
[07:18] <boss> n8tuser yeah
[07:18] <AgentHeX> MoLE_: thanks for the find.  i'll see if it fixes my problem.
[07:18] <n8tuser> boss hang a few...let me check something
[07:19] <KyleK> hey my ubuntu box is acting as a masq gateway, and i want to limit one ip on the network to just 15kbps upload rate, what do I want to use?
[07:19] <MoLE_> np AgentHeX
[07:19] <JakPete> I am new so forgive me if this is stupid.  Yesterday my ubuntu indicated that there was updates available.  I clicked on it as usual and it started downloading.  It came up with an error and since then can't open open office, can't remove or reinstall it.  Says I have 9 broken packages.  Tried doing as the error box says, which is open package manager.  When that opens it says to use the broken filter to locate them.  I tried Edit, Fix Broken Packages.  Sa
[07:20] <n8tuser> boss you said wpa2 ?
[07:20] <boss> n8tuser yeah personal
[07:20] <KyleK> syntac: is there any network services that you can test against? like a web server on your lan or something? I've heard of some drivers causing like a bandwidth limitation of that much
[07:20] <n8tuser> boss thats wpa2 or wpa1  i dont remember
[07:21] <KyleK> theres one for eahc :)
[07:21] <wwbwwb> in my home,2pc,one xp,another xubuntu.when the two connect the internet,the xubuntu is wrong.when the xubuntu connect the internet alone,it's good.what's the matter?
[07:21] <wwbwwb> xubuntu 8.10
[07:21] <boss> n8tuser wpa2/psk
[07:21]  * aceat64 is away: not here
[07:21] <syntac> kylek, yes, whenever i run the update software (my mirror is a server on campus here) it runs at ~20kB/s on wireless but at 120kB/s when wired
[07:21] <n8tuser> boss did you post your /etc/network/interfaces file earlier?
[07:21] <Flannel> JakPete: You got cut off.  But, go to a terminal, do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, and it'll likely give you a command to perform regarding broken packages
[07:21] <KyleK> wwbwwb: might want to clarify on "wrong"
[07:21] <boss> n8tuser no i'll do that now
[07:21] <n8tuser> boss if not, canyou post it?
[07:21] <KyleK> syntac: whatever wireless driver you're using is crap then
[07:22] <KyleK> try ndiswrapper if you're not using it, or the other option if you are (i think its atheros that has that issue)
[07:22] <syntac> how do i determine what i'm using?
[07:23] <wwbwwb> clarify?
[07:23] <KyleK> lsmod |ndis?
[07:23] <KyleK> wwbwwb: exactly
[07:23] <KyleK> wwbwwb: "wrong" is very vague, like when all the computers are hooked up, are the images upside down for the xubuntu machine?
[07:23] <boss> n8tuser http://paste.ubuntu.com/113925/ i think it's pretty much default
[07:24] <n8tuser> boss add these lines
[07:24] <syntac> kylek, i have the intel 5100 wireless controller.  have you heard anything bad about it?
[07:24] <n8tuser> boss     auto  eth1

[07:25] <wwbwwb> i'm a beginner.not  very catch your mean.but thank you very much
[07:25] <JakPete> sorry floodbot
[07:25] <Flannel> JakPete: You'll need to close synaptic, update-manager, and whatever other package managers you have, and try again.  (And ignore the GPG error for now)
[07:25] <KyleK> syntac: nope, did you do "lsmod | ndis"?

[07:26] <kreino> help, what command i want to use root in terminal?
[07:26] <boss> n8tuser, is that all?
[07:26] <boss> n8tuser, is that all?
[07:26] <boss> n8tuser, sorry
[07:26] <zeroshade> kreino: looking for sudo?

[07:27] <boss> n8tuser, cool i'll add those now
[07:27] <kreino> now i am in my profile.. when i want to do 'echo...', it neet to be root
[07:27] <zeroshade> kreino: put 'sudo' before the command
[07:27] <kreino> in terminal
[07:27] <Flannel> kreino: What command are you trying to do?
[07:28] <kreino> em
[07:28] <JakPete> Flannel: can I speak to you in private so I can copy/paste the message i got?
[07:28] <Flannel> !paste | JakPete
[07:28] <kreino> now.. kreino@ubuntu:~$ ....................
[07:28] <kreino> but i want use like root:~$ .............
[07:28] <ronsky> hello
[07:28] <kreino> something like that
[07:28] <zeroshade> kreino: use sudo -i
[07:28] <Flannel> kreino: No, you want to perform a command.  What command is it?
[07:29] <wwbwwb> zhenhao
[07:29] <kreino> ok thanks
[07:29] <Flannel> kreino: You'll likely end up doing something like echo "foo" | sudo tee -a /bar/baz
[07:29] <JakPete> sorry...noob here that has only recently moved from xp.   :S
[07:32] <Flannel> JakPete: Oh, you're adding PPAs for OOo 3?
[07:32] <ronsky> hey how can i get aircrack-ng installed ???
[07:32] <arvind_khadri> harley, you should install stuff from the repositories
[07:32] <harley> arvind_khadri,  then how should i go about installing java?
[07:32] <MoLE_> ronsky, sudo aptitude install aircrack-ng
[07:33] <arvind_khadri> harley, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[07:33] <ronsky> Awesome thanks
[07:33] <MoLE_> harley, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras will also give you mp3 support and other stuff like flash
[07:33] <kreino> how to stop the terminal from downloading something...? i cant stop it. before i just test mttcorefonts.. but i want to cancel..?
[07:33] <arvind_khadri> harley, substitute jre with jdk if you want jdk... type that in the terminal
[07:33] <MoLE_> kreino, press control-c
[07:33] <arvind_khadri> !java > harley
[07:33] <harley> MoLE_, I did that yesterday, thanks anyway :)
[07:34] <JakPete> Flannel: I don't know...ubuntu said I had updates available so I clicked to install\
[07:34] <MoLE_> harley, in that case you will already have java installed
[07:34] <JakPete> told you I was new to this
[07:34] <kreino> i have pressed ctrl+c, but after i download something, it will continue back.. how come?
[07:34] <JakPete> :(
[07:34] <ronsky> Awesou Mole  for MP#
[07:34] <harley> arvind_khadri, well I'm not sure if you've heard of it. But I want to play a java based game. What java will I need?
[07:35] <kreino> ok.. it done.
[07:35] <Flannel> JakPete: Ok, Lets take a step back, did you add something to try and get OOo 3?
[07:35] <arvind_khadri> harley, if you have installed ubuntu-restricted-extras java must be playing... i think you may need jdk too
[07:35] <arvind_khadri> harley, which game?
[07:36] <harley> arvind_khadri, RuneScape
[07:36] <JakPete> Flannel: I never added anything.  As I see the icon appear up the top of ubuntu, i simply click and download the latest updates
[07:36] <ronsky> Hey alot of this info is great
[07:36] <Flannel> JakPete: Is this computer shared with other people?  This might not have been today
[07:36] <lost_and_unfound> greetings, how do i see what ports are open on my ubuntu system ? in FreeBSD I was used to sockstat -4l
[07:36] <JakPete> no
[07:36] <arvind_khadri> harley, is it a online game or something
[07:36] <harley> arvind_khadri, I have been playing it but it has been freezing a lot and down the bottom it said java applet failed, so I thought it may be due to java
[07:37] <ronsky> F&^K Windows
[07:37] <harley> arvind_khadri, yes a java based game.
[07:37] <arvind_khadri> !language | Ronald
[07:37] <Flannel> JakPete: Ok, so... in the past, you tried (perhaps succeeded) in adding a repository to allow you to get a newer OpenOffice.org?
[07:37] <arvind_khadri> Ronald, sorry
[07:37] <Slart> lost_and_unfound: I think you can use netstat with a suitable switch
[07:37] <harley> arvind_khadri, and uses some kind of java applet, and it keeps failing on me
[07:37] <arvind_khadri> !language | ronsky
[07:38] <arvind_khadri> harley, which ubuntu?
[07:38] <MoLE_> ronsky, you're welcome
[07:38] <ronsky> hey it wasn't spelled correctley
[07:38] <arvind_khadri> ronsky, but even then :P
[07:38] <JakPete> Flannel: I guess i may have.  I am sorry to say that I never really take much notice, but just click update and let ubuntu do the work
[07:38] <harley> arvind_khadri, 8.10
[07:39] <MoLE_> lost_and_unfound, nmap perhaps?
[07:39] <arvind_khadri> harley, hmm.. no idea sorry...
[07:39] <harley> does anybody else here possibly know why my java applet is failing?
[07:40] <MoLE_> harley, which version of java does it require?
[07:40] <MoLE_> some java apps only work with specific versions harley
[07:40] <Flannel> JakPete: This wouldn't be something as simple as clicking the update button.  That wouldn't have done this.  But, alright.  Somehow you added an unofficial repository, and thats what's causing the issues.  Please pastebin the output of `apt-cache policy openoffice.org-core python-uno openoffice.org-writer`
[07:40] <harley> MoLE_, I'm not sure
[07:40] <ronsky> i just installed ubuntu 810 a few hours ago and just got my realtek usb drivers installed   this is nice
[07:40] <JakPete> Flannel: I can tell you when I first got unbuntu about two weeks or so ago i did download the newest open office myself and install it
[07:40] <MoLE_> harley, well this information would help you troubleshoot
[07:40] <harley> MoLE_, I'd say the latest version :S It's a pretty big game
[07:41] <arvind_khadri> harley, maybe you should try iced-tea
[07:41] <harley> arvind_khadri, iced-tea?
[07:41] <MoLE_> harley, is it an in-browser java applet?
[07:41] <MoLE_> !icedtea
[07:41] <harley> MoLE_, Yes
[07:42] <MoLE_> harley, URL?
[07:42] <harley> MoLE_, www.runescape.com
[07:42] <Kingsid3> Runescape is damnn awful
[07:42] <harley> Kingsid3, I like it :)
[07:43] <AgentHeX> MoLE_: ty much.  problem solved.
[07:43] <freq18hz> nsgn: any luck?
[07:43] <JakPete> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113930/
[07:43] <arvind_khadri> harley, its also a java jre like the ones sun issue...
[07:44] <Kingsid3> Fare play
[07:44] <harley> arvind_khadri, So I need java jre?
[07:44] <Flannel> JakPete: alright, try `sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-core`
[07:44] <arvind_khadri> harley,  sudo apt-get install icedtea-java7-jdk
[07:44] <arvind_khadri> harley, ya you need jre
[07:44] <harley> arvind_khadri, or iced tea? orr...? (I'm confused) :P
[07:45] <harley> arvind_khadri, then should I download a jre version of icedtea?
[07:45] <JakPete> Flannel: Install these packages without verification?
[07:45] <arvind_khadri> harley, first try with the sun-java jre's if its still crashing, then go for icedtea
[07:46] <Flannel> JakPete: If you'd like, you can hit no and we can fix the verification problem, or we can hit yes and then fix the problem aftewards.
[07:46] <harley> arvind_khadri,  Okay, I'll have to wait for jdk to finish downloading firs
[07:46] <arvind_khadri> harley, ok... try once after the jdk is done too :)
[07:47] <harley> arvind_khadri,  Alright, thanks for your support :)
[07:48] <Trinithis> I want to undelete files on a FAT32 filesystem. What program should I use?

[07:49] <russia213> Can anyone help me? I installed Ubuntu on my external and I get Grub error 21 even when the external is pligged in

[07:49] <arvind_khadri> !grub > russia213
[07:49] <Flannel> JakPete: Alright, do `sudo apt-get clean`, lets take care of the validation issue, and then lets reinstall OOo-core after that.
[07:50] <russia213> arvind: I did reinstall
[07:50] <dzup> intrepid here; does someone knows why googleearth goes soo slow?
[07:50] <arvind_khadri> russia213, the grub??

[07:53] <russia213> arvind_khadri: Could you help me with that?
[07:53] <Flannel> JakPete: it's just copy/paste, should be straightforward, but be sure to ask if you have questions.
[07:53] <quibbler> Industrial: what garbage?
[07:53] <igor> Hey guys, anyone here can spare a few moments to help me figure out why the Remote Desktop Viewer wont desplay the remote desktop?
[07:54] <Industrial> quibbler: the packages which were dependancies of the one I installed which no longer have any use because they aren't being used by something else
[07:54] <arvind_khadri> russia213, sure... 1)do you have dual booting? 2) run sudo fdisk -l on the terminal and the paste the output on pastebin
[07:54] <arvind_khadri> !paste> russia213
[07:55] <JakPete> Flannel: so the pages you sent me to are to help with validation issue?
[07:55] <Industrial> quibbler: eg package a needs b, I install a which also installs b first, I uninstall a but b is still on my system, I install package c, it doesnt have anything to do with b. Why is b still there?
[07:55] <gfather> is there a way a can get linux certificate for free ?
[07:55] <Flannel> JakPete: yes.   Once you import that key, you won't get the validation issue.
[07:55] <quibbler> Industrial: you can get rid of them in synaptic under the custom filter orphans

[08:11] <licantrup> Does anyone know how can I share the windows partition to another computer?
[08:11] <arvind_khadri> licantrup, samba
[08:11] <PastorBones> can anybody recommend a program for making a windows installer thing?
[08:11] <arvind_khadri> !samba | licantrup
[08:12] <russia213> arvind_khadri: Partitioner says ext3
[08:12] <PastorBones> everything I've found only works on windows
[08:12] <arvind_khadri> russia213,  sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /mnt after doing this did you get any errors?
[08:12] <licantrup> I have tried Samba through but it can't change the permissions of the partition
[08:12] <ActionParsnip2> PastorBones: i cant imagine microsoft creating one, have you tried the windows app in wine?
[08:13] <licantrup> I am trying to share from Ubuntu to Ubuntu
[08:13] <licantrup> but I wan to share a windows partition
[08:13] <PastorBones> ActionParsnip2, I'll see if I can get one of these install creators to work in wine I guess
[08:13] <licantrup> nfs complains it is not nfs compatible
[08:14] <licantrup> Samba tries to change the permission of the partition to 775
[08:14] <licantrup> and it doesn't succeed
[08:14] <ActionParsnip2> licantrup: I've only set up a samba share of Linux partitions for flexibility
[08:14] <arvind_khadri> licantrup, run samba with sudo ...
[08:14] <ActionParsnip2> licantrup: you can make samba change ownerships etc of written data
[08:14] <russia213> arvind_khadri: none
[08:15] <ActionParsnip2> or was that proftpd
[08:15] <arvind_khadri> russia213, sudo mount -a ... what does it return
[08:15] <licantrup> Ssmba tries to change /media/sda7 (the partition I want to share) from 770 to 775
[08:15] <licantrup> and it can't
[08:15] <licantrup> I tried myself with sudo
[08:16] <licantrup> but it doesn't suceed
[08:16] <ari_stress> hi guys, why my network card both wireless and cable active at the same time? both gets ip address from the network
[08:16] <arvind_khadri> licantrup, try asking in #ubuntu-server
[08:16] <russia213> arvind_khadri: nothing O.o
[08:16] <licantrup> ok
[08:16] <arvind_khadri> russia213,  sudo mount  /dev/sdc1 /mnt lets try this
[08:17] <arvind_khadri> russia213, and am sorry there was no -a in the mount command... its just sudo mount
[08:17] <viktorkAZ> cast|lir: when i try to install any of the libraries i need.. it appear in the terminal that couldnt find the packages
[08:17] <viktorkAZ> cast|lir: so i wonder how can i get the packages first
[08:18] <yao_ziyuan> when i close an app, the clipboard can be cleared. how do i change this behavior (and retain the clipboard content)?
[08:19] <arvind_khadri> russia213, will be back in a jiffy
[08:19] <russia213> arvind_khadri: ok
[08:20] <milligan_> How can I check what program is using my soundcard ?
[08:21] <Imaginativeone_> can I reinstall ubuntu without knocking out my disks?
[08:22] <Flannel> JakPete: It doesn't matter what you save the file as
[08:22] <cast|lir> defien knockin out
[08:22] <kevin_> ok... so i got myself a 64-bit machine with 4 gigs of ram. I installed 8.10 (32-bit) and i only see 3 gigs of ram. Can I just install a 64-bit kernel package in here rather than do a whole new ubuntu install?
[08:22] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, definitely
[08:23] <Imaginativeone_> I would like to save ALL of my existing information
[08:23] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, always do a backup first
[08:23] <cast|lir> kevin_: i believe you can run a 64bit kernel with a 32bit userland fine enough
[08:23] <Peddyt> I'm trying to compile some c++ source code, but I'm getting multiple errors: http://pastebin.com/m7d8ee989 Can someone please tell me what they mean and how to fix them?
[08:23] <Imaginativeone_> Mole: thanks!
[08:23] <Imaginativeone_> I don't know how to do a backup
[08:23] <Imaginativeone_> can I just risk it?
[08:23] <kevin_> perhaps i should just dl the 64-bit version and go with it
[08:23] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, I wouldn't
[08:24] <JakPete> Flannel:
[08:24] <Imaginativeone_> so, what do I do?  just NOT partition the drives?
[08:24] <JakPete> Flannel: ok.  saved it
[08:24] <kevin_> i do want to run 32-bit apps with wine though
[08:24] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, you might want to investigate Clonezilla to solve your backup problem
[08:24] <Imaginativeone_> Mole thanks VERY much!!
[08:25] <Imaginativeone_> I will check that out
[08:25] <cast|lir> kevin_: one can create a 32bit chroot, though what would be better from a compatibility perspective would be to just run windows in a vm
[08:25] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, you're welcome
[08:25] <JakPete> Flannel: and completed the rest of the task
[08:25] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, http://clonezilla.org
[08:25] <Flannel> JakPete: alright, do sudo apt-get update again, (this time, you shouldn't have the authentication errors) and then try sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-core
[08:25] <kevin_> i mostly want to run windows games though, so a vm is not an option. it came with vista, but vista is slow and i don't want to learn a new UI :)
[08:25] <Imaginativeone_> I hope Clonezilla compresses...
[08:26] <Imaginativeone_> I have to back up 600GB
[08:26] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, it does
[08:26] <MoLE_> what are you backing up to Imaginativeone
[08:27] <MoLE_> dvd or hard drive Imaginativeone
[08:27] <JakPete> Flannel: it said the following packages could not be authenticated.  But, it is downloading now so that seems to be more than before
[08:29] <Imaginativeone_> Mole: DVD
[08:29] <Imaginativeone_> should I use CloneZilla live?
[08:29] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, yes
[08:30] <Imaginativeone_> let's see...600GB/4GB per DVD
[08:30] <Imaginativeone_> 150 DVDs
[08:30] <Imaginativeone_> ugh
[08:30] <MoLE_> imachine, cheaper to buy a portable hard drive
[08:30] <Kunalagon> hello, does somebody knows how to create Ad-hoc network using NetworkManager? I mean, I can create, but what next? I cannot see that network from another computer?
[08:31] <Imaginativeone_> yeah...better in the long run
[08:31] <Imaginativeone_> I bought a WD 1TB, but I had to return it
[08:31] <Imaginativeone_> my system wouldn't recognize it
[08:31] <kevin_> oh ok... i was gonna ask why... i just got one tonight :)
[08:32] <izmaelis> !loli status
[08:32] <Imaginativeone_> kevin: let me know how it works out for you...
[08:32] <cast|lir> some bios have trouble with the big hard drives
[08:32] <Imaginativeone_> hmm...
[08:33] <kevin_> it works fantastic
[08:33] <Imaginativeone_> would you give me a link?
[08:33] <kevin_> i just shifted all of my wine installed apps to it, simlinked .wine to my home dir, and now they're movable between systems easily
[08:33] <russia213> arvind_khadri: The last command returned "mount: can't find /dev/sdc1/mnt in etc/fstab or etc/mtab
[08:33] <Imaginativeone_> back to the originial task, how do I install Ubuntu over my existing system while keeping it?
[08:34] <Imaginativeone_> I wish I knew what "symlinking" is...
[08:34] <sleepy_cat> nick
[08:34] <Imaginativeone_> I see that term all the time
[08:34] <cast|lir> Imaginativeone_: you can't 'keep it' an install over it. you can keep a subset of it though
[08:34] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, it depends on how you set it up originally
[08:34] <cast|lir> Imaginativeone_: what do you want to keep?
[08:34] <MoLE_> !symlink
[08:34] <MoLE_> !symlink > Imaginativeone
[08:35] <Imaginativeone_> I want to keep the gobs of data I've amassed over the last two years
[08:35] <kevin_> exit
[08:35] <kevin_> exit
[08:35] <kevin_> woops i'm sorry
[08:35] <FloodBot1> kevin_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:35] <cast|lir> Imaginativeone_: so what, the contents of /home?
[08:36] <MoLE_> Imaginativeone, you need to tell us what configuration you have with your partitions on your drive then we can give you better information
[08:36] <Until_It_Sleeps> Does anybody know any programs that can burn AVI files to a DVD-rw so it can play in a regular DVD player?
[08:36] <MoLE_> Until_It_Sleeps, I would suggest k3b
[08:36] <Imaginativeone_> Mole: Partition A - Master HDD
[08:37] <Imaginativeone_> Partition B - Secondary Master
[08:37] <MoLE_> !partition | Imaginativeone
[08:37] <Imaginativeone_> Partition C - Secondary Slave

[08:51] <pogay> I installed a ubuntustudio 8.10 and with iscan I have a dependency problem. it depends from an "older" lib, but works find with the new one.
[08:52] <andrew_> hi. why are the respositories soooooo slow ?
[08:53] <andrew_> it was default ca.archive, i changed it to us.archive
[08:53] <andrew_> same thing
[08:53] <pogay> I was looking for a workarround, to have no problems after installing with the update (which does'nt work afterward).
[08:53] <cast|lir> andrew_: if they're all slow, amybe you're slow :o
[08:53] <norbert79> Good morning
[08:53] <pogay> equivs and metapackeages seem to complicate, as I just need the package on one laptop
[08:53] <zgmf-x20a> prince_jammys: trying to setup gmail type accounts on kmail, cant get sending to happen though, keep getting this error:  Transport 'Unnamed' is invalid.
[08:53] <andrew_> no im not slow
[08:53] <pogay> ist possible to edit .deb packages? How?
[08:54] <andrew_> im talking 28.8 - 6kb/s slow
[08:54] <norbert79> pogay: dpkg-deb
[08:54] <prince_jammys> zgmf-x20a: direct it to the whole channel. i don't know about kmail.
[08:54] <zgmf-x20a> prince_jammys: ok, thanks though :)
[08:54] <zgmf-x20a> hey all, trying to setup gmail type accounts on kmail, cant get sending to happen though, keep getting this error:  Transport 'Unnamed' is invalid.
[08:54] <Slart> andrew_: try another mirror again.. you should get better speeds from almost any mirror in the world... might be on your end though
[08:55] <ziroday> zgmf-x20a: for kde apps you might have better luck in #kubuntu
[08:55] <andrew_> whats a good mirror
[08:55] <ziroday> andrew_: there is a "Select the best mirror for me" button
[08:55] <andrew_> and is there a tool to change it easier then line by line in the sources.list file
[08:55] <Slart> andrew_: there is a list in the "software sources" dialog
[08:55] <norbert79> andrew_: Which has the highest speed, and is close to your area
[08:55] <zgmf-x20a> ziroday: tried, no one home.  lol.  im running ubuntu though, gnone, kontact is justa  superior app
[08:55] <andrew_> ok
[08:55] <pogay> norbert79: thanks, I follow this hint
[08:55] <norbert79> pogay: Depending on you would like to accomplish... What exactly are you trying to do?
[08:57] <flubuntu> i wqant to reques ubuntu dimaan
[08:57] <norbert79> flubuntu: You would like to do what with what?
[08:57] <ziroday> flubuntu: dimaan?
[08:57] <andrew_> ziro
[08:57] <andrew_> what program
[08:57] <rdz> hi all. i would like to configure sudo in away that a certain user can start an /etc/init.d script as root
[08:57] <andrew_> are you talking about ,  seleccct best mirror
[08:57] <andrew_> synaptic ?
[08:58] <ziroday> andrew_: in software sources. Look in System > Administration > Software Sources
[08:58] <MNZ> can I set up a local directory as a source in apt?
[08:58] <rdz> but this should be the only action this user can do with root privileges
[08:58] <norbert79> rdz: check /etc/sudoers! It's the file for conmfiguring sudo
[08:58] <arvind_k> rdz, we advise you not to
[08:58] <norbert79> rdz: "man sudoers" explains a lot
[08:58] <rdz> norbert79, yeah.. i nkow sudo and the /etc/sudoers, but i don't understand how to set it up for what i want
[08:58] <ziroday> andrew_: and then where is says "Download From:" select other.
[08:58] <rdz> arvind_k, why do you do so?
[08:59] <rdz> norbert79, thanks.. i'll try
[08:59] <andrew_> ziro ahhhh, thanks
[08:59] <norbert79> rdz: try to read that one through, if you get stuck, come back to us again
[09:00] <pogay> norbert79:  iscan is dependet libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2) ubuntu8-10 provides libtdl7 (which is compatible)
[09:00] <arvind_k> rdz, sorry i hadnt completely understood what you wanted to say...sorry about it
[09:00] <andrew_> anyone know how to make my ubuntu with the big icons on the bottom instead of the task  bar ? what modification is that  ?
[09:00] <norbert79> pogay: I see... Did you check the packages which package would get you the libltdl3 compatibility?
[09:00] <MNZ> is it possible to set up a directory as an apt source? I mean can I make it look for packages in a directory where I have downloaded them before trying to download?
[09:00] <ziroday> andrew_: you can increase the panel size or use a dock
[09:00] <norbert79> andrew_: Avant-Window navigator is the one you are looking for
[09:01] <_jester_> you guys know any soulseek client for terminal
[09:01] <Slart> MNZ: it's possible to use a cd as a repository.. so it ought to be possible to add a folder.. don't know how to do it though
[09:01] <rdz> norbert79, already the very beginning is very challenging... talking about the grammar of it
[09:01] <sissi> hi
[09:01] <norbert79> rdz: It's pure english :)
[09:01] <ziroday> MNZ: you can put them in /var/cache/apt but not sure if that will work
[09:02] <MNZ> I think the current directory will do
[09:02] <pogay> norbert79:  I made a symplink iscan works perfektly, but the dependency-error is unpleasant, disturbs upgrade and further installation
[09:02] <Ravenor> linux-headers-2.6.24-23 causes a kernel panic on my Aspire One. if I remove the 24-23 headers via synaptic, will linux default to the  24-22 headers?
[09:02] <ActionParsnip2> yo yo yo
[09:02] <norbert79> pogay: I see... Lets see if there are compatibility packages
[09:02] <_jester_> looking for soulseek client for console, anyone knows one?
[09:03] <prince_jammys> _jester_: museek
[09:03] <rdz> norbert79, don't you get frightened, when reading the term "Extended Backus-Naur Form (EBNF)"?
[09:03] <Slart> Ravenor: I doubt the kernel headers are causing a kernel panic.. it's just text files..are you talking about the kernel?
[09:03] <norbert79> rdz: No, I just Google a bit, or check SUDO's webpage :o) http://www.sudo.ws
[09:03] <ziroday> Ravenor: you can pick the -22 kernel from grub, and have grub boot up to that by default
[09:03] <andrew_> nicce 900kb/s now
[09:03] <Ravenor> Slart, No. as detailed here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/322867 Aspire One owners have gotten panics after installing the recent header update.
[09:04] <Slart> Ravenor: and no, you'll need the correct kernel headers for the kernel you're running
[09:04] <ActionParsnip2> _jester_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=109142
[09:04] <andrew_> new zealand ftw
[09:04] <prince_jammys> _jester_: museek, which works in tandem with museeq. personally, i think it kind of sucks, but check it out.
[09:04] <_jester_> prince_jammys: thx, ill check it
[09:04] <ActionParsnip2> _jester_: theres an ncurses client there
[09:04] <norbert79> pogay: What application does this library require?
[09:04] <Ravenor> ziroday, provided the kernel itself is still present on my computer (which I assume it is, as I'm using it. It just defaults to 24-23 right now, and I switch it in grub)
[09:04] <Ravenor> ziroday, correct?
[09:05] <Slart> Ravenor: read that page again.. it's probably the new *kernel* that is the problem
[09:05] <andrew_> 1143kB/s!
[09:05] <ziroday> Ravenor: correct. You can manually select -22 in grub when booting up. If that works you can have grub always use -22
[09:05] <rdz> oh jeese.. that is way too much of a n overkilll..
[09:05] <andrew_> is there a good mp3 album manager for linux ?
[09:06] <rdz> sorry... but the sudoers man page is for people who spend their live trying to understand sudo
[09:06] <ziroday> andrew_: as in?
[09:06] <norbert79> andrew_: Well, Amarok is nice, but not exactly an album manager
[09:06] <andrew_> like i could point it at a bunch of directories, and it'd list all the albums for me for easy clicking
[09:06] <nathanhelp> nickrud: Are you still about?
[09:06] <andrew_> nothin to fancy
[09:06] <eper3z> hey guys why is it so hard to share a folder on my network ubuntu to vista?
[09:06] <rdz> norbert79, i don't wnat to start another religion.. i would like to just want a user to let execute one little script..
[09:06] <Slart> Ravenor: but you can use the older kernel if you want.. and the older kernel headers will be used automatically..let them sort out the problems before you switch
[09:07] <norbert79> rdz: I get you, don't worry... :) Check your privates
[09:07] <Ravenor> Slart, My bad. Me being stupid, I figured 24-23.48 was the only one I had. I'd need to find a way to roll back to 24-23.46, right?
[09:07] <nathanhelp> How can I tell if my USB ports are working or not?
[09:07] <Ravenor> Slart, or be lazy and just use 22.
[09:08] <Slart> Ravenor: I would just stick with the second newest kernel and set that to default in grub
[09:08] <ziroday> andrew_: something like rhythmbox?
[09:08] <cast|lir> nathanhelp: plug in a usb drive and see if anything happens?
[09:08] <Slart> Ravenor: they will probably release a new upgrade later when they've found out what is wrong
[09:08] <jtaji> rdz: it's pretty easy, make a line 'user ALL = /etc/init.d/whatever' or '%group ALL = /etc/init.d/whatever'
[09:08] <cast|lir> or a mouse, or a kb
[09:08] <rdz> jtaji, thanks a lot
[09:08] <Ravenor> Slart, Right. My thanks.
[09:08] <nathanhelp> cast|lir: I have no usb kb/mouse
[09:09] <Slart> Ravenor: you're welcome
[09:09] <jtaji> rdz: hmm, here I found some examples too http://www.gratisoft.us/sudo/sample.sudoers
[09:09] <nathanhelp> i do have a printer though. that would be a good test
[09:09] <Until_It_Sleeps> MoLE_: How would I go about burning a .AVI to the dvd so that it's playable?
[09:09] <alberto2000> which is the best irc client for ubuntu?
[09:10] <ActionParsnip2> !best | alberto2000
[09:10] <andrew_> alberto xchat probably
[09:10] <ActionParsnip2> alberto2000: best doesnt exist
[09:10] <pogay> norbert79: there are, what I have seen,   libltdl3-sources in the web, I didn't like the idea to install old versions.
[09:10] <andrew_> or irssi if you like something simple
[09:10] <Slart> alberto2000: type !best here in the channel for more info
[09:10] <andrew_> its solid
[09:10] <prince_jammys> alberto2000: there are many. xchat, pidgin, konversation ... also irssi for a command-line one.
[09:10] <MoLE_> Until_It_Sleeps, K3B - read the manual and it details how to
[09:10] <norbert79> pogay: No, what application does require libltdl3?
[09:10] <ActionParsnip2> !irc | alberto2000
[09:11] <alberto2000> ok thanks
[09:11] <Slart> Until_It_Sleeps: you can also try devede.. easy enough that you don't have to read a manual =)
[09:11] <pogay> norbert79: it think it's more for gui's an configuration, but I don't know
[09:11] <theneb> Anyone know anything about modprobe.d ?
[09:11] <Slart> !anyone | theneb
[09:11] <Until_It_Sleeps> Slart: I think I installed that, but I can't find it anywhere
[09:11] <norbert79> pogay: But what was the name of the package you tried to install which asked for liltdl3?
[09:11] <Slart> Until_It_Sleeps: open a terminal, type devede
[09:12] <Until_It_Sleeps> O_o oh..
[09:12] <theneb> ubottu: oops, wrong channel. It's a gentoo question ;)

[09:12] <L_Y> !openoffice
[09:13] <norbert79> pogay: Whats iscan? There should be a support for Epson printers in Ubuntu
[09:13] <Slart> !away > kansan-zzzzz
[09:14] <Until_It_Sleeps> :D
[09:14]  * Until_It_Sleeps hugs Slart
[09:14] <theneb> ubottu: Meant for a general channel, Anyway if anyone does know how to get alsactl to run restore with a module load. Ie post-install snd-ymfpci /usr/sbin/alsactl restore then let me know
[09:14] <Until_It_Sleeps> ubottu: Why does my computer suck?
[09:15] <Until_It_Sleeps> :P
[09:15] <pogay> norbert79:  yes, printer works out of the box, but scanner http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=&model=sx400&bus=any&v=&p=
[09:15] <norbert79> pogay: Oh, so xsane does not provide you the support for your Epson then?
[09:16] <pogay> norbert79: ican brings the modul to recognise the scanner, then xsane works
[09:16] <norbert79> pogay: I see...
[09:17] <norbert79> pogay: Hang on... Googling a bit ;-)
[09:17] <pogay> norbert79: for me would be a workarround just to adjust the lib-dependecie in the package.
[09:19] <norbert79> pogay: Do you have libsane-extras installed? dpkg -l | grep libsane

[09:21] <joshjtl> hi, anyone try fedora 10? I've been trying it out lately but I'm pretty sure I'm coming back to Ubuntu, the distro feels reallllly solid, but the package system is a real hassle!!
[09:22] <shubbar> can someone tell the the command to change files of one extension to another
[09:22] <arvind_khadri> !ppa > L_Y
[09:22] <prince_jammys> joshjtl: try at #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:22] <ActionParsnip2> joshjtl: its good to try different distros
[09:22] <Slart> shubbar: you mean rename? try "mv"
[09:22] <Kingsid3> I found Yum really easy to use
[09:22] <ActionParsnip2> shubbar: depends on the file type you are changing from
[09:23] <gordonjcp> !ot | joshjtl
[09:23] <ditch64> hi, could someone help me burn a DMG image to a dvd-dl?
[09:23] <ActionParsnip2> shubbar: you cant simply rename files and it convert the data
[09:23] <joshjtl> ok ok, sheesh
[09:23] <c_nick> !do-it | gordonjcp
[09:23] <ditch64> im trying to burn OSX onto a disc
[09:23] <joshjtl> natzis
[09:23] <gordonjcp> joshjtl: seriously, there's #ubuntu-offtopic, they love that sort of stuff in there
[09:23] <norbert79> !ot | joshjtl
[09:23] <joshjtl> topic-natzis
[09:23] <Slart> joshjtl: no need for name calling.. especially those kinds of names
[09:23] <prince_jammys> joshjtl: try #ubuntu-nazis
[09:24] <joshjtl> hehe
[09:24] <Until_It_Sleeps> O_o
[09:24] <Bobblybook> can anyone help me with getting an intel wireless card connecting to a network?
[09:24] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, you there??
[09:24] <norbert79> ok, anyone would like to kick the back of this idiot? Thank you
[09:24] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: lspci will identify it, you can websearch from there
[09:24] <L_Y> arvind_khadri yea
[09:24] <shubbar> Slart, can you give me an example using mv
[09:24] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml you can use this...just replace hardy with every instance of interpid
[09:25] <L_Y> arvind_khadri: you mean that i have to download it by myself?
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> ditch64: http://baghira.sourceforge.net/dmg.htm
[09:25] <ActionParsnip2> ditch64: i wouldnt go advertising illegal activity in here
[09:25] <Bobblybook> Hi again parsnip :) Yes I've got drivers and firmware all updated. It's listed as eth1, but not as wlan0 anywhere, and won't find my networkk
[09:25] <ditch64> ActionParsnip2, well its a student version and i have legal rights to it
[09:25] <Until_It_Sleeps> Wow, DeVeDe takes a long time to convert. But I'll wait as long as neccesary :D
[09:25] <Slart> shubbar: mv awesomefile.txt awesomefile.data will change the name from awesomefile.txt to awesomefile.data ... it will still be the same text file though
[09:26] <lucio12345> hello i have a CUPS-PDF printer installed as default
[09:26] <lucio12345> but a program doesn't see it and i cannot print
[09:26] <suigeneris> how do I get the total size of the files I list with find?
[09:26] <ditch64> ActionParsnip2, will that help me burn it to a disc though?
[09:26] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, not really, program apt-get so that it does it for you :)
[09:26] <ActionParsnip2> ditch64: read the link
[09:26] <lucio12345> is there a way to declare the PDF printer visible to all?
[09:26] <Slart> Until_It_Sleeps: it does.. but afaik that's the only way to do it.. re-encoding takes time
[09:27] <Until_It_Sleeps> Heh. By my calculations, it should be done at about 4 A.M. :P
[09:27] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: http://www.usenet-forums.com/linux-networking/61712-change-eth1-wlan0.html
[09:27] <L_Y> arvind_khadri,i typed in the terminal "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org",but when the program finished,it's still 2.4
[09:27] <Slart> Until_It_Sleeps: sounds reasonable for a large avi.. running on single core?
[09:27] <Until_It_Sleeps> Running on a 700 MHZ Celeron
[09:27] <ActionParsnip2> L_Y: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[09:27] <Saouka> Just tried to use the make command on 8.10, but the all the files in the directory I used the make command in appear to just go, they don't even appear in trash, nor are they hidden. Was during trying to compile a wireless driver.
[09:28] <Slart> Until_It_Sleeps: ouch..
[09:28] <Until_It_Sleeps> This is only about 200 MB, so... yeah.
[09:28] <L_Y> ActionParsnip2,i'm under 8.04
[09:28] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, i had given you a link right? you just need to follow the instructions there...and replace the instances of interpid with hardy
[09:28] <Until_It_Sleeps> about an hour an a half.
[09:28] <Until_It_Sleeps> it would be done.
[09:28] <shubbar> Slart, i tried batch converting and it gave me file finemane.ext is not a directory
[09:29] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: thanks, but that doesn't really help - I have no conflict on eth1, I'm just worried it's not being detected as wireless properly..
[09:29] <Slart> shubbar: I never said you could use that straight away on several files at once
[09:29] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: it will help you rename it to wlan0
[09:29] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, the one which ActionParsnip2  gave is the same which i gave, so just follow it and remember about changing the name
[09:29] <L_Y> arvind_khadri,okay,i'll have a try
[09:29] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: i think (as you say) it doesnt matter
[09:29] <Slart> shubbar: what are you trying to do?
[09:30] <arvind_khadri> L_Y, sure..go ahead :)
[09:30] <shubbar> Slart, batch convert some files with ext1 to ext2
[09:30] <Slart> shubbar: my example was only for one file
[09:31] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: hmm Ok. iwconfig shows "unassociated" under access point. I think that might be the problem
[09:31] <shubbar> Slart, how about using wildcards mv *.ext1 *.ext2
[09:31] <Koheleth> is there a channel for Jaunty?
[09:31] <ikonia> Koheleth: #ubuntu+1
[09:31] <Koheleth> Thank you
[09:31] <|tom|> could anyone make sense of this problem: when using "Processing" (visual code writer thingy), the program will occasionally just not recognize key strokes, and seems to randomly switch between working and not
[09:32] <ikonia> |tom|: what application is visual code writer thingy
[09:32] <Slart> shubbar: I don't think it's that easy.. have you searched in synaptic for "rename files" ? I think there are a couple of utilities
[09:32] <|tom|> its called Processing
[09:32] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: you could try manually populating /etc/network/interfaces to test
[09:32] <ikonia> |tom|: the application is called "processing" ?
[09:32] <|tom|> yeah
[09:33] <ikonia> |tom|: where did you get it as I can't see that application in the ubuntu software repository
[09:33] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: I will try that, brb a couple of mins.
[09:33] <|tom|> http://processing.org/
[09:33] <ikonia> |tom|: ok - so it's not built/packaged by ubuntu so not much we can really do to support you
[09:33] <ikonia> |tom|: I suggest you use the contact details on that website
[09:34] <Peddyt> How would I reconnect a USB device as if it were physically unplugged and replugged?
[09:34] <ActionParsnip2> Peddyt: sudo umount -a
[09:34] <|tom|> ah just thought i would try, thanks
[09:34] <ikonia> |tom|: no problem, it just looks very custom written
[09:35] <shubbar> Slart, did it,  using this command:   for f in *ext1 ; do mv $f `basename $f ext1`ext2; done
[09:35] <shubbar> that was complicated
[09:36] <Slart> shubbar: but still kind of elegant =) I would probably have made it uglier =)
[09:37] <cast|lir> shubbar: just for future reference, its a good idea to wrap filenames in quotes, for if say one contains a space
[09:37] <prince_jammys> for f in *.ext1; do mv "$f" "${f%ext1}ext2"; done
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> shubbar: if its all files with one extension to another, use: mv *.jpg &.png
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> shubbar: and they will all switch file extension
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> *.png...sorry
[09:38] <ActionParsnip2> mv *.jpg *.png
[09:39] <ActionParsnip2> example
[09:39] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: just got told I don't have permission to edit interfaces
[09:39] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[09:39] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip2: that doesn't work
[09:39] <ActionParsnip2> or sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[09:40] <ActionParsnip2> gordonjcp: bah
[09:40] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip2: you can't just say "mv *.jpg *.png", because for one thing globbing doesn't work like that
[09:40] <gordonjcp> shubbar: What exactly are you trying to do?
[09:40] <f0rmat> tried installing ubuntu 8.10 this morning and when shown the partition table it doesn't show any partitions even though i have one NTFS partition 1 fat32 and several others it couldn't see any it just said use whole drive :S
[09:40] <pirx_> hi! i use a 8.10 ubuntu desktop. so does a collegue of mine here at work. for both of us the sound often just stops working. is this some common problem?
[09:40] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: thanks, all saved. Do I need to restart or reload ubuntu?
[09:40] <Peddyt> ActionParsnip2, umount -a just lists my home partition and system partitions...
[09:40] <ActionParsnip2> gordonjcp: it works under win, it was an educated guess
[09:41] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: you need to run: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[09:41] <shubbar> ActionParsnip2, thanks, thats simpler so i just had to use & for the target
[09:41] <ActionParsnip2> Peddyt: does it not show up again in nautilus?
[09:42] <Boo_gg> hi all ))
[09:42] <Peddyt> ActionParsnip2, it doesn't unmount anything. It just lists (in the terminal) a list of devices and says 'device is busy'.
[09:42] <Peddyt> ActionParsnip2, it doesn't list any USB devices.
[09:42] <shubbar> gordonjcp, just like actionparsnip2 showed it
[09:42] <gordonjcp> shubbar: weird, that shouldn't work
[09:42] <andrew_> ziro if i delete my default taskbar/panel (at the bottom) in ubuntu, to replace it with this avant window manager thing
[09:42] <andrew_> will i be able to get it back easily ?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip2> gordonjcp: doesnt work here either
[09:43] <prince_jammys> it doesn't
[09:43] <dreamwork> andrew: yes
[09:43] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip2: nor did mv *.jpg &.png, it just tried to fork off a bunch of mv
[09:43] <is_null> hello everybody, i've created a usb stick from 8.10 livecd. How to dist-upgrade? /cdrom is only half-full but i get this error: debconf: DbDriver "templatedb": could not write /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat-new: No space left on device
[09:43] <prince_jammys> it's like saying mv foo.mp3 bar.mp3 baz.mp3 *.wav   (it only works if there happens to be a directory named '*.wav')
[09:44] <is_null> dpkg: unable to fill /var/lib/dpkg/updates/tmp.i with padding: No space left on device
[09:44] <gordonjcp> prince_jammys: that's what I thought
[09:44] <gordonjcp> is_null: you've run out of space
[09:44] <ActionParsnip2> rename is a better command http://txt.binnyva.com/2007/03/change-the-extension-of-multiple-files-in-linux/
[09:44] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: All done, still nothing new though.
[09:44] <shubbar> gordonjcp, i did it with another more complex command "for f in *ext1 ; do mv $f `basename $f ext1`ext2; done"
[09:44] <prince_jammys> for f in *.mpg; do mv "$f" "${f%mpg}avi"; done
[09:45] <is_null> growy, are you sure you've read my question?
[09:45] <gordonjcp> shubbar: aha, I was coming to that
[09:45] <is_null> gordonjcp, *
[09:45] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: run df -h  do you have free space?
[09:45] <UIS_Of_Borg> !ot
[09:45] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip2: if you really wanted to convert a bunch of images from .jpg to png, you might do "for i in *.jpg; do convert $i `echo $i | sed 's/jpg/png/'`; done;
[09:46] <prince_jammys> shubbar: what i just typed will do it. yours will break if filenames contain spaces
[09:46] <ActionParsnip2> gordonjcp: i love the convert command, its badass
[09:46] <is_null> ActionParsnip2, yes on the persistent data file: http://pastebin.com/m4605809a
[09:47] <is_null> i though that the ubuntu usb created would have made it for ubuntu to use hasn't it?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: rootfs                505M  505M     0 100% /
[09:47] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: you / is full to capacity
[09:47] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: try running: sudo apt-get clean
[09:47] <f0rmat> I tried installing ubuntu 8.10 this morning and when shown the partition table it doesn't show any partitions even though i have one NTFS partition 1 fat32 and several others it couldn't see any it just said use whole drive :S
[09:48] <is_null> ActionParsnip2, wouldn't that just temporarly solve the problem that ubuntu isn't using the space it asked me too?
[09:48] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: i'm guessing you /home is on / so you may want to delete some knitting patterns / Cat attacking child / cousins wedding you hated pics
[09:48] <is_null> *asked: when i created the usb live system
[09:48] <is_null> did anyone read my question please?
[09:49] <is_null> i don't have anything in /home, i just created the ubuntu live usb system and told it to use a couple of G for persistent stuff, now i just booted on it and i'm trying to dist-upgrade
[09:50] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: you have no more space on the / partitioon to do any sort of package install, if you have never ran that command you will have a bucket of debs that are just sat taking up space
[09:50] <is_null> kthx
[09:50] <shubbar> prince_jammys, now what was that, python?
[09:50] <prince_jammys> shubbar: no. bash
[09:51] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: you could always symlink the cache folder (or whatever) to a partition with lots of space
[09:51] <is_null> indeed, i'll mount a tmpfs on the cache folder, thanks ....
[09:51] <pluma> I'm trying to get WLAN working on my Acer notebook. Everything's okay, except when I try to log in to a network. The network uses WPA/WPA2 (Personal, not Enterprise). When I enter the key, it fails to auth and shows me what seems to be an encrypted version of the key I entered. Am I being daft or do I smell something fishy?
[09:51] <jedi06> i just installed this new theme and i'm getting /home/jordan/.themes/SlicknesS-black/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:101: Unable to locate image file in pixmap_path: "/handles/handle-v.png"
[09:52] <ambitoun> chinaese
[09:52] <prince_jammys> !cn | ambitoun
[09:52] <ambitoun> 中文
[09:52] <ambitoun> yes
[09:52] <ActionParsnip2> pluma: have you installed and configured wpa supplicant?
[09:52] <pluma> ActionParsnip2: Yupp, it was installed by default.
[09:53] <jedi06> it looks really hard to read chineese
[09:53] <ActionParsnip2> pluma: is it configured though?
[09:53] <ambitoun> my english is very poor
[09:53] <pluma> ActionParsnip2: I had to add the network via the settings as the network picker wouldn't let me select WPA, though.
[09:53] <Peddyt> How would I reconnect a USB device as if it were physically unplugged and replugged? ie, dropping all power to the device and everything.
[09:53] <Myrtti> ambitoun: then try the chinese channels
[09:54] <sexcopter> pluma: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[09:54] <pluma> sexcopter: Intrepid
[09:54] <pluma> sexcopter: Intrepid Ipex 8.10 64bit, to be exact.
[09:54] <is_null> i think this command should be run before updating a liveusb system: cd /var/cache/apt && mv archives/* /tmp/ && rm -rf archives && ln -sfn /tmp archives
[09:54] <ActionParsnip2> !wpa | pluma
[09:54] <sexcopter> pluma: hmm, my only guess can be problems with 64-bit drivers... i'm not very savvy on this topic though
[09:55] <sexcopter> pluma: do you know the wireless chipset?
[09:55] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: not sure duder
[09:55] <pogay> norbert79: canditate <IP_ADDRESS>  - I can uninstall iscan and try to install
[09:55] <is_null> ActionParsnip2, then i'm telling you ;)
[09:55] <is_null> thanks for the help
[09:55] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: i'd make a folder withinn tmp to use
[09:55] <ActionParsnip2> is_null: np man
[09:55] <prince_jammys> is_null: you'll have a bunch of loose files in /tmp
[09:56] <is_null> i don't care because ubuntu liveusb mounts a tmpfs in /tmp, which means that /tmp is in the ram, and  those data will die when i shut down
[09:56] <nathanhelp> does anyone have any experience with digital still cameras and glibphoto2?
[09:56] <prince_jammys> is_null: move the whole dir if you're going to do that, and link to the dir
[09:56] <pluma> ActionParsnip2: Keyring and WPA seem to be working. Only problem is when I try to log in it seems to encrypt the key I enter and show me that when it fails to connect rather than the key I entered, which leads me to believe that it doesn't handle the key as it should.
[09:57] <pluma> I'll try that then: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[09:58] <pluma> Bummer I have to wait until I get home before I can give it a try.
[09:58] <cheeky> whats a good graphics card that would work with ubuntu and would be able to handle the latest games pretty well ?
[09:58] <pluma> Thanks for the help, though.
[09:58] <pluma> cheeky: Nvidia
[09:58] <is_null> prince_jammys, that works as well
[09:58] <pluma> cheeky: Almost any nVidia card should do. Just stay away from ATI if you want to avoid trouble.
[09:58] <ActionParsnip2> !hcl | cheeky
[09:58] <Slart> cheeky: at the moment, nvidia
[09:59] <ActionParsnip2> nvidia all the way here
[09:59] <cheeky> ok
[09:59] <pluma> cheeky: In theory any card should work, but nvidia saves you some trouble with 3D stuff.
[09:59] <ActionParsnip2> depends if you need 3D
[09:59] <ActionParsnip2> if its not needed, any card will fly
[09:59] <cheeky> any model number, with nvidia ?
[10:00] <sexcopter> cheeky: i think nvidia is better supported, but ati is more open and in the spirit of open-source, and support for it is improving
[10:02] <dbwalsh> *yawn*
[10:02] <pogay> norbert79: was on the wrong conole, but not installed cand: <IP_ADDRESS>Ubuntu1
[10:06] <pogay> having iinstalled libsane extras, epson sx400 scanner is not recognised.
[10:07] <joshjtl> are there different packages installed if I install ubuntu from dvd than if I installed with a cd iso?
[10:08] <ActionParsnip2> joshjtl: none at all, the only difference is the DVD has the other DE's on, KDE, XFCE
[10:08] <joshjtl> great thanks ActionParsnip2
[10:09] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: Any ideas? I added the network in Network Connections -> Wireless, but no luck. Should it be finding the network automatically?
[10:11] <echo__> hi. I just used the 'Hipo' ipod software, any now my ipod shows no music, yet Hipo still shows it all there. Any ideas?
[10:11] <biomass> why is there no libXxf86dga.so in ia32-libs ?
[10:12] <abhi__> how to remove completely pidgin files
[10:13] <Slart> abhi__: sudo apt-get remove --purge pidgin ought to do it
[10:13] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: if you rename the interfaces file you editted and reboot you will have no network config which may help, you wil get a blank config which you can resetup
[10:13] <abhi__> thanks dude
[10:13] <Slart> biomass: afaik not all libraries are made available in ia32-libs.. perhaps they didn't see a reason to include it
[10:14] <biomass> Slart: yeah most likely I guess, too bad its the only library i need to get this 32bit app running =)
[10:14] <jedfox> - connect irc.oftc.com
[10:15] <Slart> biomass: you can't compile it yourself? or get the 32-bit library from packages.ubuntu.com ?
[10:15] <jedfox> sorry
[10:15] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: Ok, how would I do that?
[10:15] <ruediix> Hello, I'm back.  Does anyone know how to override the refusal of x64 Ubuntu to install i386-i686 packages.
[10:16] <Slart> ruediix: you can use dpkg with a force option.. but think twice before doing it
[10:16] <minato> Hi
[10:16] <biomass> Slart: that's my next step I guess =) is there a way to use a 32bit package and get it properly installed in /usr/lib32 ?
[10:16] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces_old
[10:16] <ruediix> Slart, Yes, always check that you have the compatability libraries installed.
[10:16] <minato> wer spricht deutsch?
[10:16] <Slart> biomass: I don't know really.. I've never had to do it myself
[10:17] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: Thanks, rebooting.
[10:17] <biomass> Slart: hmm, this looks interesting, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790, gonna give that a go
[10:17] <fplive> hello
[10:17] <shital> i have downloaded all the packages for 8.10 manually, now i want them to be installed through Synaptic on system which do not have net connection, so how i can tell the SPM, to look a folder for the extra packages?
[10:18] <ruediix> Slart they should make the compatability libraries package add i386 as a supported architecture.
[10:18] <Briareos1> can i configure ubuntu so that if a user creates a file in a specific directory the permissions are set to GROUP1 and if they create a file in another directory it will be set to GROUP2?
[10:18] <Slart> biomass: ah.. looks interesting.. please let us know if it worked
[10:18] <fw1> Briareos1, i think you want to set the group sticky bit
[10:19] <Briareos1> fw1 what does that do?
[10:19] <shital> is that possible??
[10:19] <RaverWild> hello guys. question: is it normal the system monitor gnome applet to indicate almost 100% network usage when i do nothing? i have a hardy installation at work - never happens there. intrepid installation at home - never happens when i do something. as i stop (nearly fresh installation, with everything closed) the network indicator goes at almost 100%. is there a daemon in intrepid which does that?
[10:19] <Slart> shital: take a look at aptoncd, it might be helpful
[10:19] <shital> ok fine
[10:20] <Slart> RaverWild: I think it sets maximum to whatever max activity has been.. so if you're not using the network it would stay very high
[10:21] <Bobblybook> ActionParsnip2: OK, I have no interface file now, but my wired and wireless connections are still saved
[10:21] <jtaji> Briareos1: change the group owner of the directory, and then chmod the directory setgid, i.e. chgrp group1 directory1 && chmod g+s directory1
[10:21] <echo__> hi. I just used the 'Hipo' ipod software, any now my ipod shows no music, yet Hipo still shows it all there. Any ideas?
[10:21] <ActionParsnip2> Bobblybook: ok now fire up your connection manager software and setup
[10:23] <biomass> Slart: it worked =) only problem I noticed was that it referred to its own man page which wasn't available.
[10:24] <Slart> biomass: ah.. I can live without a man page as long as it works =)
[10:26] <scientes> how can i get ubuntu to stop messing with ctrl alt f1
[10:26] <scientes> it grabs it and pulls me back to X
[10:27] <scientes> when something goes wrong this prevents me from fixing
[10:27] <scientes> it
[10:27] <Briareos1> jtaji cool! it even works via samba :) ... but now i got the problem that files created via the file system get the permissions -rw-r--r-- .... but i'd need -rw-rw---- instead
[10:27] <scientes> and its another example of the computer trying to tell me what i want
[10:27] <Slart> scientes: how do you mean, it pulls you back to X?
[10:27] <scientes> try it
[10:28] <scientes> ctrl-alt-f1
[10:28] <scientes> you have to do it twice
[10:28] <Slart> scientes: ah.. ok.. I've always blamed nvidia for that... for a while it didn't work at all
[10:28] <jtaji> Briareos1: the umask needs to be changed from 022 to 002, you can set it for the file system in /etc/fstab
[10:28] <jtaji> Briareos1: with a umask=002 option
[10:28] <scientes> why would nvidia grab my keystrokes
[10:28] <scientes> it pisses me off cause a few times X has frozen and i cant fix it
[10:29] <Slart> scientes: I think it was a bug in the nvidia driver when switching to "text mode"
[10:29] <scientes> makes me want to turn ssh on so i can remote log in and fix it
[10:29] <scientes> so if i use the framebufer driver i wont have it?
[10:29] <Briareos1> jtaji hmm okay so it's not possible directory-specific?
[10:29] <scientes> cause i hve witnessed the same problem with the framebuffer
[10:30] <Slart> scientes: I have no idea.. I have ssh server enabled for fixing things =)
[10:30] <jtaji> Briareos1: I don't think so.. but it won't hurt with ubuntu, since the default is to use private groups (group with same name as user)
[10:31] <Briareos1> jtaji yeah i just about it - furtunately everything i want to have that permission is on one and the same partition anyway. thanks a lot!
[10:31] <jtaji> Briareos1: I'm wrong...
[10:32] <jtaji> Briareos1: you can set the umask in ~/.profile or /etc/profile
[10:32] <cappiz> is it possible to install ubuntu on a software raid?
[10:33] <jtaji> Briareos1: for all users change the umask at the end of /etc/profile, or use the individual users .profile
[10:33] <shital> is it possible to add the locally saved .iso image to the synaptic package Manager??
[10:34] <Slart> cappiz: yes.. using the alternate install cd  or  using other tricks
[10:34] <Slart> !alternate | cappiz
[10:34] <jtaji> Briareos1: and I bet there's a way to do it per directory that I'm not aware of
[10:34] <Briareos1> jtaji nice
[10:35] <shital> is that possible?
[10:35] <jtaji> Briareos1: ok maybe not per dir :p
[10:41] <ActionParsnip2> shital: you could mount it using loop device and update from it after you add it as a repo
[10:42] <Briareos1> jtaji actually i needed umask 006 ;)
[10:42] <shital> ActionParsnip2: even then there is no way to add right?
[10:42] <ActionParsnip2> shital: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[10:42] <ActionParsnip2> shital: that tells you you can mount the iso
[10:43] <Briareos1> jtaji ehm 007 i mean
[10:43] <Briareos1> jtaji no license to kill for "others"
[10:45] <mygirlCOX> morning
[10:46] <Shannon> hey everyone
[10:46] <TecnaTranux> I just upgraded to intrepid, and now my nvidia-glx-96 driver isn't working.  I tried versions 96.43.09 and 96.43.05.
[10:46] <Shannon> hmm
[10:46] <Shannon> try resetting your modem
[10:47] <TecnaTranux> ???
[10:47] <Shannon> nevermind
[10:47] <Shannon> i got mixed up
[10:47] <mygirlCOX> Shannon:
[10:47] <mygirlCOX> i just installed
[10:47] <cobra-the-joker> Hey Guys ....when i click on 3D View in the chess game .....it tells me that i dont have a python openGL support .....How can i get that ?
[10:47] <mygirlCOX> milk in the fridge
[10:47] <mygirlCOX> not sure what module to use
[10:47] <Shannon> try module 3
[10:48] <mygirlCOX> thanks
[10:48] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: i'd reset xorg.conf back to failsafe with: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:48] <mygirlCOX> Shannon: what fps do you get when playing mario ?
[10:48] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: then reinstall the nvidia driver and then run: gksudo nvidia-settings
[10:48] <mygirlCOX> i wrote that game completely in html
[10:48] <Shannon> on linux?
[10:48] <mygirlCOX> Shannon: na on minix
[10:48] <Shannon> minxie
[10:48] <Shannon> about 6 fps
[10:49] <mygirlCOX> thats enought to get laid right ?
[10:49] <Shannon> no
[10:49] <cast|lir> you wrote a game in html? sounds painful [manualy, at least]
[10:49] <Shannon> i wrote a book
[10:49] <Shannon> in english
[10:49] <Shannon> well
[10:49] <Shannon> a page
[10:50] <quibbler> !ot
[10:50] <step21> cobra-the-joker: probably your graphics card doesn't support it
[10:50] <Shannon> sorry sir
[10:50] <Shannon> speaking of graphics card support
[10:50] <cobra-the-joker> step21 ,  you sure of that ?
[10:50] <Shannon> ever since the rape charge my parents stopped supporting me
[10:50] <mygirlCOX> Shannon: do you need help
[10:50] <mygirlCOX> installing
[10:50] <step21> cobra-the-joker: no, because I don't know your graphics card, ofc I'm not sure
[10:50] <mygirlCOX> iptables
[10:50] <mygirlCOX> or ipchair
[10:50] <cobra-the-joker> coz i have intel ^-^
[10:50] <Shannon> yeah
[10:51] <Shannon> i open terminal
[10:51] <Shannon> and click terminal cancer
[10:51] <step21> cobra-the-joker: it could also be that it would need a proprietary driver or special configuring to support it
[10:51] <Shannon> and the brain tumor fails to install
[10:51] <TecnaTranux> Troll detected
[10:51] <mygirlCOX> hey
[10:51] <mygirlCOX> is there
[10:51] <mygirlCOX> a ubuntu
[10:51] <mygirlCOX> social ?
[10:51] <mygirlCOX> channel ?
[10:51] <FloodBot1> mygirlCOX: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:51] <Shannon> men you flooded
[10:51] <cobra-the-joker> step21 , know something about that that could help ???
[10:51] <step21> cobra-the-joker: well, intel integrated graphics is pretty much the worst, so it might not support it
[10:51] <Shannon> my floor is wet
[10:52] <mygirlCOX> FloodBot1 g i am not flooding
[10:52] <Shannon> oh step21 shove your support up your ass
[10:52] <step21> cobra-the-joker: only if you can tell me the exact model etc, then maybe I can look up if it is supported
[10:52] <mygirlCOX> lol
[10:52] <Shannon> your not helping anyone with your pansy explanations
[10:52] <jussi01> mygirlCOX: please change your nick, and you can join #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:52] <mygirlCOX> jussi01: thanks
[10:54] <incorrect> i just noticed something very strange, I've been installing servers for some time, and the admin group has always been uuid 119,  however i just installed again and its changed to 112
[10:55] <cast|lir> maybe packages got configured in a different order
[10:56] <TecnaTranux> brb, restarting x server
[10:56] <jussi01> incorrect: ask in #ubuntu-server ;)
[10:58] <lcw> hellow
[11:01] <TecnaTranux> nothing's improved
[11:02] <TecnaTranux> still low-graphics mode, and nvidia-settings says I'm no using the nvidia driver

[11:05] <matt427> does any1 no where i can play online games like pool and backgammon on my ubuntu box against my friends windows box
[11:05] <prometheus77> hi, anyone knows how to set up font antialiasing for qt3 apps in intrepid? I used qt3configurator but there is no options for this
[11:05] <Slart> TecnaTranux: /var/log/X11
[11:05] <Elite23> TecnaTranux: var/log
[11:05] <ziroday`> TecnaTranux: root around in /var/log
[11:06] <shital> dpkg-scanpackages
[11:06] <TecnaTranux> hive mind?
[11:06] <shital> to create package list
[11:06] <Slart> TecnaTranux: don't make us play out the ending scene from body snatchers =)
[11:06] <shad_> any one can help me out ...i just installed ubuntu on my sony vaio laptop but my cam is not working
[11:06] <ziroday`> shital: is that the command you are executing? just dpkg-scanpackages? No options
[11:06] <Slart> !webcam | shad_
[11:07] <ziroday`> shad_: do you know what your webcam model is?
[11:07] <shad_> ziroday, it is VGN-CR24G
[11:07] <shital> ziroday: its this  dpkg-scanpackages /dev/null |gzip > Packages.gz
[11:07] <ziroday`> shad_: this is the laptop right, not the actual camera?
[11:07] <ziroday`> shital: right, well /dev/null is nothing. dpkg-scanpackages will never find anything there
[11:08] <shad_> ziroday, yes it is inbuilt with my laptop
[11:08] <shital> now what to do for that error?
[11:08] <prometheus77> also for qt4 there is no font antialiasing setting in qt4configurator. How to make fonts look normal in qt4/qt3 without installing kde?
[11:08] <ziroday`> shad_: okay, can you pastebin the output of lspci please?
[11:08] <ziroday`> shital: well you can use /dev/null as a scan source. What exactly are you trying to do?
[11:08] <shad_> hey how can i pastebin
[11:08] <ActionParsnip2> !fonts
[11:08] <ziroday`> prometheus77: its probably best asked in #kubuntu :)
[11:09] <Slart> !pastebin | shad_
[11:09] <Bi-Man> hallo
[11:09] <ziroday`> Slart: thanks :)
[11:09] <Slart> shad_: just copy paste to that webpage
[11:09] <Bi-Man> where am I
[11:09] <shital> ziroday': whanted to create my own local repository
[11:09] <prometheus77> ziroday`: maybe, but i am using gnome and some of qt based apps
[11:09] <Slart> ziroday`: you're welcome =)
[11:10] <Bi-Man> i am in th chat for the first timeat
[11:10] <ziroday`> prometheus77: sure, but the great folks in #kubuntu know most about qt* related stuff :)
[11:10] <Bi-Man> looks very complicated
[11:10] <ziroday`> shital: okay, which instructions are you reading?
[11:10] <Slart> Bi-Man: not really.. once you get used to it
[11:10] <ziroday`> Bi-Man: do you have a question for us?
[11:10] <TecnaTranux> ziroday`: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113984/
[11:10] <ziroday`> TecnaTranux: thanks!
[11:11] <ActionParsnip2> Bi-Man: just type and press enter ;)
[11:11] <ziroday`> TecnaTranux: okay, you're running the vesa driver not the nvidia one.
[11:11] <Bi-Man> strange
[11:11] <Bi-Man> someone else answer under my nickname ?
[11:11] <shital> ziroday`: i have all packages locally stored and with that dpkg-sca... i am creating Packages.gz which should have all package list
[11:12] <shital> so that i can add that to /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:12] <shad_> ziroday, it is asking for configure evoluation
[11:12] <quibbler> Bi-Man: if you are having a problem in ubuntu just state what it is
[11:12] <Bi-Man> is it possible to eclipse all that technical by-work
[11:12] <ziroday`> shad_: sorry, what are you doing?
[11:12] <askand> When I try to record something with the internal microphone on my asus eee pc, the sound is all choppy, any ideas on why?
[11:12] <Bi-Man> in order to see just the essential conversation lines ?
[11:12] <ziroday`> shital: okay, take a look at aptoncd.
[11:12] <ziroday`> !aptoncd
[11:13] <Kottizen> Hello.
[11:13] <shad_> ziroday, i just open your link in new tab

[11:13] <ziroday`> askand: #ubuntu-eeepc might know, but remember to wait a while they're quiter there :)
[11:13] <crekarasu> any one can help me ? ------- >>>>>>>> http://paste.ubuntu.com/113985/
[11:13] <tparcina> hi channel!
[11:13] <Kottizen> tparcina: Hi
[11:13] <Kottizen> I am trying to log in as "root", but is does not works. How will I do?
[11:13] <shital> ziroday`: that will create an iso, which we need to burn and then add to SPM, but i have all packages locally saved
[11:14] <TecnaTranux> ziroday`: I installed to nvidia driver, ran nvidia-xconfig, and restarted gdm.  why would vesa still be active?
[11:14] <tparcina> I'm having problem finding driver for Konica Minolta bizhub 163. Can someone help me?
[11:14] <Bi-Man> now good folks i think i am leaving now
[11:14] <ziroday`> shad_: right. You shouldn't have to configure anything. In a terminal run lspci and then go to pastebin.com and copy the output and paste it in the site and hit send. Then pass the url on to us.
[11:14] <askand> ziroday`: thanks
[11:14] <Bi-Man> my head is swirling
[11:14] <shital> i dont want any extra things like CD and all
[11:14] <tparcina> Bi-Man: Bye!
[11:14] <ziroday`> TecnaTranux: do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[11:14] <Peddy> Is there a command that reconnects a USB drive as though it were physically unplugged and replugged?
[11:14] <shad_> ziroday, ok thanx i just pasted it
[11:15] <crekarasu> any one can help me ? ------- >>>>>>>> http://paste.ubuntu.com/113985/
[11:15] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: sudo apt-get install tcl-devel
[11:15] <ziroday> Peddy: umount <drive> and then mount <drive> <mountpoint>
[11:15] <TecnaTranux> ziroday`: yes, I was just looking at it a few minutes ago
[11:15] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: I wouldnt be logging on as root either ;)
[11:15] <ziroday> shad_: okay, you need to give us the url.
[11:15] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: any chance you can pastebin that too please?
[11:15] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 E: Could not find package TCL-devel
[11:16] <tparcina> Konica Minolta bizhub 163 (copy, scaner, printer), does anybody know where can I find drivers?
[11:16] <shad_> ziroday, http://pastebin.com/m5719ec00
[11:16] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: its lower case
[11:16] <ziroday> shad_: thanks!
[11:16] <Peddy> ziroday, is it possible to do that with a device that's not mounted?
[11:16] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: linux is hugely case sensitive so you cant just throw in caps when you feel
[11:16] <TecnaTranux> ziroday: I had a feeling... :)
[11:16] <ziroday> Peddy: well then you would just need to mount it?
[11:17] <quibbler> tparcina: try here: http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=KONICA_MINOLTA-bizhub_163
[11:17] <ziroday> shad_: I can't see a camera in there. Is it connected via usb?
[11:17] <Peddy> ziroday, would that umount disconnect power and everything to it? Is it even possible for software to close down power to a single USB port?
[11:17] <tparcina> quibbler: thank you for link, I'll check it right now
[11:17] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 yes E: Could not find package tcl-devel
[11:17] <ziroday> Peddy: not sure sorry.
[11:17] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: apt-cache search tcl | grep -i dev
[11:17] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: you need the dev package for tcl
[11:17] <crekarasu> yes
[11:18] <Peddy> ziroday, thanks for your help, it's just my device is not 'mountable', it doesn't have a filesystem on it.
[11:18] <TecnaTranux> *facepalm!*  Why didn't I notice this before?? xorg.conf is missing ALOT!!
[11:18] <ziroday> Peddy: you can still see it with sudo fdisk -l
[11:18] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: thats normal
[11:18] <TecnaTranux> http://paste.ubuntu.com/113988/
[11:18] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: however you might have to define that is needs to use the nvidia driver
[11:18] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: in intrepid its very minimal as HAL controls a lot now
[11:19] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: looks ok
[11:19] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 http://paste.ubuntu.com/113990/
[11:19] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: okay you've told it to use the nvidia driver. Did you just edit that?
[11:19] <Peddy> thanks for your help ziroday
[11:19] <TecnaTranux> no
[11:19] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: all right. Does nvidia-settings open without errors?
[11:19] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: 4th line has: tcl-dev - The Tool Command Language (default version) - development files
[11:20] <TecnaTranux> no.  I already said that is gives me, "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. "
[11:20] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: you need one of those. I'd suspect one of the top 10
[11:20] <TecnaTranux> I followed those instructions, and it didn't help
[11:20] <jedi06> how do you increate the volume is there a setting for that becuase my laptop doesn't get very loud at all i can barely hear it
[11:20] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: okay, have you tried restarting your xserver?
[11:20] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: did you restart x after running sudo nvidia-xconfig?
[11:20] <jedi06> there is a multimedia button to turn up volume mayber there is a master volume setting
[11:21] <ActionParsnip2> jedi06: there should be a volume icon someplace which you can crank with
[11:21] <TecnaTranux> yes.  please note "(2009-02-05 10:56:06) TecnaTranux: brb, restarting x server"
[11:21] <jedi06> so i can turn it up louder
[11:21] <ziroday> jedi06: try opening the gnome mixer by right clicking on the volume and then make sure PCM and Front are near max
[11:21] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 What should I do now? I know very well with Linux
[11:21] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: sorry I didn't see that :)
[11:21] <jedi06> ok that was it thanks
[11:22] <TecnaTranux> but what I notice missing is that there is a second device (not in use) that should be configured.
[11:22] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: read the readme in your source or the website from where you got the source, it will tell you whats required
[11:23] <jedi06> what is the diff in pcm and from
[11:23] <jedi06> front
[11:23] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 required tclConfig.sh but I installel tcl-dev ... and it works !
[11:23] <ziroday> jedi06: they are just volume settings. Make sure they're at max
[11:23] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: awesome
[11:23] <jedi06> yes what do they stand for
[11:23] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: you said it couldnt find it before....
[11:24] <ziroday> jedi06: well Front is just the front speakers, and pcm is part of the output.
[11:24] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 i resolved the problem! tank you
[11:24] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 how to install gmake?
[11:24] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: ahh it was dev, not devel
[11:24] <jedi06> ok thanks
[11:24] <crekarasu> yes ActionParsnip2 dev not devel ;)
[11:24] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:25] <askand> Can someone with a eee pc 900 and a working internal mic check their values in volumemixer?
[11:25] <TecnaTranux> ziroday: This is my xorg.conf from before I upgraded: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113992/
[11:25] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 and "build-essential" is gmake?
[11:25] <TecnaTranux> note the sis device
[11:26] <ziroday> askand: also sorry, #eeepc and #debian-eeepc on irc.oftc.net are great places to ask too :). Sorry forgot about them before
[11:26] <TecnaTranux> should I restore the old xorg.conf?
[11:26] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: no it will install a whole environment for compiling including a lot of libs that compiling takes
[11:26] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: err I don't think the nvidia drivers support cards that old
[11:26] <crekarasu> ok ActionParsnip2 tanks !
[11:27] <TecnaTranux> ziroday, what do you mean?
[11:27] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: do you have a Geforce 2?
[11:27] <TecnaTranux> yes
[11:27] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: the nvidia drivers don't support that. Nv might
[11:27] <askand> ziroday: thanks found the error now, stupid pulseaudio
[11:27] <ziroday> TecnaTranux: there's your problem :)
[11:27] <ziroday> askand: awesome!
[11:28] <TecnaTranux> how do I install nv?
[11:28] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: are you using nvidia-glx-71
[11:28] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: supports all the way down to RIVA TNT
[11:28] <TecnaTranux> ActionParsnip2: let me check synaptic
[11:28] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: you need to sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-71
[11:29] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: just use that command, synaptic takes forever
[11:29] <ziroday> ActionParsnip2: oh really? Cause from nvidia.com they don't support past Geforce 4
[11:29] <ActionParsnip2> ziroday: read it yourself; https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/i386/nvidia-glx-71/71.86.04-0ubuntu5
[11:29] <tparcina> quibbler: I have followed the instructions but it doesn't seem like the driver is installed
[11:30] <TecnaTranux> ziroday: I had the device working once before I downgraded.
[11:30] <ziroday> ActionParsnip2: never doubted ya :). Sweet never realised that thanks!
[11:30] <ActionParsnip2> ziroday: I dont use the nvidia site. I always use off repos so upgrades are smooth
[11:30] <tparcina> quibbler: first I have installed lsb package, then I have installed that package that I have downloaded from that web page - openprinting-ppds-postscript-konica-minolta_20081112-1lsb3.2_all.deb
[11:30] <ActionParsnip2> ziroday: but yeah its rocked in that driver :)
[11:31] <TecnaTranux> I was using glx-96 before the downgrade to hardy, but there was a glitch that scrambled text in wine
[11:31] <tparcina> quibbler: and when I try ti set up new printer, in the list there is KONICA MINOLTA, but inside KONICA MINOLTA there isn't my model
[11:32] <tparcina> Knoica Minolta bizhub 163, can anyone help me with driver installation?
[11:32] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: try dpkg -x ./openprinting-ppds-postscript-konica-minolta_20081112-1lsb3.2_all.deb
[11:32] <quibbler> tparcina: is there a model close to yours?
[11:32] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: and find the ppd file
[11:32] <tparcina> I have tried driver from this web page, but id desn't seem to work (or I have done something wrong - http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=KONICA_MINOLTA-bizhub_163)
[11:32] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: that will extract the data from the deb
[11:33] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: I have tried that one, and it seams that I have installed that package corectly, but when I try to set up the printer I can see KONICA MINOLTA, but inside KONICA MINOLTA I don't see my model
[11:34] <TecnaTranux> ah, yes... I now remember why I stopped trying to use glx-71
[11:34] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: what model is it?
[11:34] <TecnaTranux> it removes nvidia-xconfig
[11:34] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: then use your old xorg.conf and then its not needed ;)
[11:35] <TecnaTranux> I was in the middle of renaming and copy/pasting it just now
[11:35] <TecnaTranux> :)
[11:35] <ActionParsnip2> great minds eh
[11:36] <quibbler> tparcina: did you read the how to install here: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/Database/DriverPackages
[11:36] <TecnaTranux> (I always have to rewrite something in xorg.conf whenever I run nvidia-xconfig, anyway
[11:36] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: I have extracted that deb package, but it seamse that there is no 163 model
[11:37] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: Can I use some other model driver?
[11:37] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: well just try one of the others, one in the same range should be fine
[11:37] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: it's Konica Minolta bizhub 163
[11:37] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: like a 162 or 164
[11:37] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 can help me to install gmake ? build-essential it`s already installed and updated
[11:37] <ActionParsnip2> just 16*
[11:37] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: sudo apt-get install gmake
[11:37] <tparcina> quibbler: yes, I have followed those instructions
[11:38] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: or try: apt-cache search gmake
[11:38] <crekarasu> gmake no found
[11:38] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: if you dont have a package you can apt-cache search for it
[11:38] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 root@florin-desktop:/var/tmp/postgresql-8.1.13# apt-cache search gmake
[11:38] <crekarasu> cfgstoragemaker - MRTG config generator for storage monitoring via SNMP
[11:38] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: there is no 162, 164 or any 16*
[11:39] <ActionParsnip2> tparcina: any others from te 160 range?
[11:39] <YlandeFaran> What programs are suitable for some simple video editing? Cutting, fusing together, adding music/text etc?
[11:39] <tparcina> ActionParsnip2: no :8
[11:39] <TecnaTranux> brb, restarting x server again
[11:39] <YlandeFaran> Nothing fancy needed!
[11:39] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/gmake
[11:40] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=389841

[11:41] <crekarasu> root@florin-desktop:/var/tmp/postgresql-8.1.13#
[11:41] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: yep, in linux, no news is good news
[11:41] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: why are you logged in as root?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip2> !info postgresql
[11:42] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: and why are you compiling an older version of postgresql? 8.3 is on the repos
[11:42] <tparcina> I guess, the only problem is that on those web pages http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=KONICA_MINOLTA-bizhub_163 and in this file openprinting-ppds-postscript-konica-minolta_20081112-1lsb3.2_all.deb there is no driver for Konica Minolta bizhub 163
[11:42] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 it's inconvenient for sudo
[11:42] <tparcina> so, I'm still at first stage - searching for Konica Minolta 163 Linux driver :(
[11:43] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: well all the commands i'm giving have sudo
[11:43] <crekarasu> ActionParsnip2 i need only this version
[11:43] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: by enabling root you have severely lessend your security, just an fyi
[11:44] <cast|lir> ActionParsnip2: quite open to debate that is ;P
[11:45] <crekarasu> does not matter, it can only access locally installed with vmware workstation , i user windows
[11:45] <cast|lir> notice the seurity paranoid openbsd comes with root enabled :)
[11:45] <ActionParsnip2> cast|lir: well its to be dis-advised
[11:45] <ActionParsnip2> crekarasu: thought so

[11:48] <nathanhelp> Need help fixing Grub. How can I delete it completely? I took out a 2nd HD that Grub was, and now I'm getting Grub error 21. I've looked up the error code but...dont know what to do next.
[11:48] <ActionParsnip2> !grub
[11:49] <nathanhelp> Cannot find file
[11:49] <ActionParsnip2> nathanhelp: if you want to get rid of grub you need to write a new bot sector to the drive
[11:49] <ActionParsnip2> *boot
[11:49] <ActionParsnip2> nathanhelp: if you want to reinstall grub, follow those guides
[11:50] <TecnaTranux> I'm still getting errors.  I'd bet it's because I'm using an old xorg.conf
[11:50] <cobra-the-joker> HEy guys ...... when i check the sticky switching .....it unchecks automaticlly again when i click Ok
[11:50] <nathanhelp> hmm.. I have a winxp HD. Do i need Grub?
[11:50] <Robbie_Crash> how can I delete all copies of desktop.ini from everywhere in my fs?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip2> nathanhelp: as long as there is a windows boot sector on the drive it will boot windows hapily, you just need to configure your bios to boot that drive instead
[11:51] <nathanhelp> roger.
[11:51] <nathanhelp> attempting to tell bios to boot HD
[11:51] <ActionParsnip2> Robbie_Crash: sudo find -name *.ini -exec sudo rm {} \;
[11:51] <ActionParsnip2> Robbie_Crash: cd to wherever you wish to start the search and run the command
[11:52] <TecnaTranux> does anyone have any more ideas on how to get my driver going?
[11:52] <Robbie_Crash> ActionParsnip2 yikes, not *.ini, just desktop.ini, thanks though
[11:52] <ActionParsnip2> nathanhelp: if you have no boot sector for the windows you will need to fix that with the xp cd
[11:52] <Entelin> how do i disable that search that happens when you misspell a command? its irritating to wait for it
[11:52] <ActionParsnip2> Robbie_Crash: its customisable
[11:52] <Robbie_Crash> ;)
[11:53] <ActionParsnip2> Robbie_Crash: find -exec is hugely powerful
[11:53] <Robbie_Crash> I was totally on the wrong track trying to pipe stuff through locate and crap
[11:53] <Robbie_Crash> ActionParsnip2 thanks, will check manpage now. :)
[11:53] <TecnaTranux> ActionParsnip2: using the old xorg.conf didn't work
[11:54] <YlandeFaran> What programs are suitable for some simple video editing? Cutting, fusing together, adding music/text etc?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip2> TecnaTranux: i'd work out how to manually populate the file, weird how you cant get xorg-nvidia
[11:54] <nathanhelp> ActionParsnip2: I hav eno XP CD. I have recovery partition (which i cant access yet)
[11:54] <nathanhelp> *have no

[11:55] <zimnyx> Do you know any PEM certificate viewer? Running openssl * commands is exhausting just for viewing cert.
[11:55] <zimnyx> Do you know any PEM certificate viewer for linux? Running openssl * commands is exhausting just for viewing cert.
[11:55] <TecnaTranux> wait, let me retype the error I got when restarting.
[11:55] <ActionParsnip2> nathanhelp: i see, you may need a small partition (1mb say) for grub to live
[11:56] <orudie> is it hard to set up mail server ?

[11:58] <hateball> ActionParsnip2, orudie: Zimbra isnt in the repos, but you can grab an installer for 8.04 from their site. It's opensource :)
[11:58] <ActionParsnip2> !startup | vlad

[11:59] <TecnaTranux> I think I might know what's wrong
[11:59] <nathanhelp> do tell :)
[12:00] <nathanhelp> I'll let you know how hot or cold you are.
[12:00] <Akram> @ActionParsnio2 i even tried doing it by manually downloading the iso and putting it in the wubi folder
[12:00] <hateball> orudie: Well there's always the source if you want to build... or look into some other solution. I was just mentioning it :)
[12:00] <TecnaTranux> nathanhelp: are you on that machine right now?
[12:00] <TecnaTranux> or is it a separate box?
[12:00] <nathanhelp> i have access to it
[12:00] <talto1> hello all! i've done this, the only problem is that i need to get the last dir that created.. any idea? find . -name '*.sql' ls *.sql-print

[12:01] <vlad> ActionParsnip2:  i know ... that sessions.... but my programs in what sistem file... are?

[12:17] <Ace2016_-> Hi all
[12:17] <ActionParsnip2> notwist: itd be hard but you could
[12:17] <notwist> ActionParsnip2: i mean, for example, i want to be nice to someone i know so they can irssi through my server but i dont want them to be able to run nmap or whatever and h4x around

[12:18] <notwist> ActionParsnip2: how hard is it?
[12:18] <ActionParsnip2> notwist: you could set a different owner group of the file to run, then add users to the group who have access and have zero access for people not in the group
[12:19] <ActionParsnip2> notwist: it could get messy but its possible
[12:19] <notwist> ActionParsnip2: but i would have to do that for all files on the computer right?
[12:19] <ActionParsnip2> notwist: just the ones you are restricting access to

[12:41] <Akram> @ActionParsnio2 .. checked the wubi and iso MD5.. it matches .. no problem with it
[12:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Akram wubi.. ugh.. I hate that method
[12:42] <ActionParsnip2> Akram: good least we know the installer is sound
[12:42] <Akram> i dont have a cd writer on the old dell system thats why taking the wubi root
[12:43] <cpach> hi all! i've played around with my /etc/pam.d/* files on an experimental box and would like to reset them to some good defaults. does anyone have a clue on how to do this?
[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Akram Burn the cd at the slowest possible speed.. Dell and HP require it.. even if the md5 is correct and it tests ok
[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Akram Rethink the wubi thing
[12:43] <Akram> Ok
[12:44] <deww> Jack_Sparrow: nice freebie download. thanks for the heads up.
[12:44] <sammmmy1357> hi guys....am on ubuntu 8.10...awsome OS.. loving it... got one tweeny weeny problem... or rather two... blue tooth aint working and how do i use my windows mobile 5 in ubuntu????
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> deww np, that is a good book on ubuntu
[12:44] <Akram> i tried wubi so many time and always failed .. i guess i have to get the CD burned..
[12:45] <dr_Willis> Akram,  or use unetbootin tomake a bootable/installable thumbdrive :)
[12:45] <ActionParsnip2> sammmmy1357: how do you mean "use" do you mean synchronise?
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Akram To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[12:46] <sammmmy1357> yes actionparsnip...syunch and open...my sony ericsson w810i opens like a storage device the moment i connect it...
[12:46] <ActionParsnip2> sammmmy1357: please be specific like that in future :)
[12:46] <deww> sammmmy1357: this might be useful https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup

[12:47] <slacker_nl> can someone point me to documentation regarding the change from upgrade to safe-upgrade and dist-upgrade to full-upgrade for aptitude?
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !upgrade
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> slacker_nl not sure if that is the factoid you wanted..
[12:48] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: probably the aptitude man page
[12:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning erUSUL
[12:49] <mophiax> When will jaunty alpha4 will be avaliable ? Does anyone know ?
[12:50] <erUSUL> Jack_Sparrow: Morning! \o/ ( althought 13:49 in my timezone ;P )
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> 4:50 am here
[12:50] <Jack_Sparrow> mophiax 9.04  year and month of release

[12:51] <mophiax> Jack_Sparrow: I know ,but alpha4 is scheduled for release today.I'm a little impatient
[12:51] <tparcina> any other driver that I can use instead?
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> mophiax Then #Ubuntu+1
[12:52] <mophiax> Jack_Sparrow: no answer from there....maybe they are working on it?I will just try and relax my mind ,while waiting then xD

[12:53] <slacker_nl> Jack_Sparrow: I know how to upgrade packages and do dist-upgrades, I want to know why they made those changes to aptitude/apt..
[12:54] <slacker_nl> i was curious, since upgrade is deprecated and safe-upgrade should be used, but they do exactly the same
[12:54] <slacker_nl> same as full-upgrade and dist-upgrade
[12:54] <sammmmy1357> thanks actionparsnip...it works fine now...
[12:54] <ActionParsnip2> sammmmy1357: uber
[12:54] <ActionParsnip2> sammmmy1357: good skills getting it sorted :)

[12:57] <watcher> Anyone knows how to fix it? help will be appreciated
[12:57] <mib> hi.i just mount my hard space in ubuntu but i did not have permission to read/write to the drive normally
[12:57] <mib> any solution to this?
[12:57] <ActionParsnip2> mib: better mount options
[12:57] <mib> ?
[12:57] <sammmmy1357> any idea on the bluetooth connection bug in ibex?
[12:57] <mib> i used gparted
[12:57] <ActionParsnip2> watcher: i'd make sure you are fully updated, head into #compiz and ask there
[12:58] <watcher> Thanks i'll do that
[12:58] <ActionParsnip2> mib: i'd browse round for mounting guides
[12:58] <ActionParsnip2> !mount | mib
[12:58] <mib> ive done the partitioning
[12:58] <mib> its just the permission to read/write im facing now
[12:58] <ActionParsnip2> mib: or you can add a line to fstab
[12:59] <ActionParsnip2> mib: thats specified at mount time
[12:59] <mib> hmm..how ar?
[12:59] <ActionParsnip2> mib: ok what file system are you using on the partition
[12:59] <mib> ext3
[12:59] <ActionParsnip2> and what partition name is it?
[13:00] <mib> partiton name?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip2> /dev/....
[13:00] <mib> ohh
[13:00] <mib> its /dev/sda2
[13:00] <ActionParsnip2> mib: run sudo fdisk -l to see all partitions
[13:00] <sammmmy1357> the error i get when i try sending a file from pc to my mobile using bluetooth is "org.openbox.error.connectionattemptfailed".
[13:00] <ActionParsnip2> ok and where are you mounting it to
[13:00] <mib> qlet me paste it in pastebin
[13:01] <mib> http://pastebin.com/d3b9defdc
[13:01] <zgmf-x20a> he all, how do i change associations?  ie, im trying to change from transmission to ktorrent
[13:01] <jrib> !defaultapp | zgmf-x20a
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> mib First, check the ownership: Open a terminal and type cd /media ...then type... ls -la ...then, do the following, replacing “yourPartition” with the name of the partition (e.g. /sdb1)... sudo chown -R username:username /media/yourPartition  (On a live system you must create a user name first) followed by... sudo chmod -R 755 /media/yourPartition ... Finally, check to see if it worked by doing another ls -la to verify the perm
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> issions are set
[13:01] <ActionParsnip2> mib: ok where are you mounting it to?
[13:02] <mib> /dev/sda2	/media/storage	ext3	defaults	0	1
[13:02] <sammmmy1357> any idea on my query????
[13:03] <jrib> !helpme | sammmmy1357
[13:03] <sammmmy1357> oooops! sorry about that.... will wait...
[13:03] <zgmf-x20a> jrib: yes ive tried that, doesnt work.   how do i set it so when i click on a torrent, trasmission is NOT the default
[13:03] <ActionParsnip2> mib: try /dev/sda2    /media/storage    ext3    users,exec,rw,umask=000 0 0
[13:04] <ronny> hi
[13:04] <mib> Action: i try sudo chown -R mib:mib /media/storage/
[13:04] <ronny> anyone aware of a way to send the password to hardware-locked harddisks
[13:04] <mib> is it same?
[13:04] <jrib> zgmf-x20a: you right clicked, then clicked on properties, then clicked on the "open with" tab?
[13:04] <ronny> my laptops hd had a password to access it from the bios
[13:04] <zgmf-x20a> jrib: yup, that will only make it associate with downloaded torrent files
[13:05] <ronny> now i have it in a external sata rack and it wont read anything off it
[13:05] <oris> dove posso trovare ubuntu a 64bit per il mio acer aspire 6935 intel core duo?
[13:05] <jrib> zgmf-x20a: no, should work for any file of the same type
[13:05] <ronny> im completely lost
[13:05] <ActionParsnip2> mib: thats file permissions on the files, its worth a try
[13:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !it
[13:05] <jrib> zgmf-x20a: do you mean in firefox or something?
[13:05] <mib> Action: and whats the difference with your solution?
[13:05] <ActionParsnip2> mib: you could also chmod -R 755 /media.storage
[13:06] <rip_> !xubuntu
[13:06] <mib> Action: your solution to the fstab also fix the permission file simialry?
[13:06] <ronny> anyone?
[13:06] <zgmf-x20a> jrib: well it does work fine, whenever i dl the torrent to desktop then double click to open.  but i want to be abel to click it, and the default is set to ktorrent, not transmission, and yes this is thru firefox
[13:06] <jrib> zgmf-x20a: then check your firefox preferences
[13:06] <ActionParsnip2> mib: try the chown first, but i'd try the fstab if its no good
[13:07] <mib> ive tryt the one suggested by Jack _Sparrow
[13:07] <mib> now i could see the Create fdolder/file
[13:08] <mib> so im not sure whats the difference with the one with the fstab ones
[13:08] <zgmf-x20a> jrib: ok, when selecting use other it opens me up in my home folder, how does one associate it to ktorrent from that point?
[13:08] <nathanhelp> !grub
[13:09] <jrib> zgmf-x20a: navigate to the ktorrent binary.  Probably /usr/bin/ktorrent
[13:09] <slacker_nl> ActionParsnip2: man aptitude :)
[13:09] <ronny> anyone?
[13:09] <ActionParsnip2> slacker_nl: its not on my system. neither is synaptic
[13:09] <sammmmy1357> the error i get when i try sending a file from pc to my mobile using bluetooth is "org.openbox.error.connectionattemptfailed". any fixes or workarounds???
[13:10] <ActionParsnip2> sammmmy1357: have you websearched the error some?
[13:10] <zgmf-x20a> jrib: sweeeeeeeet!  bingo.  thanks man!
[13:10] <slacker_nl> ActionParsnip2: chmod -R 755 /path/to/stuff is actually not really a good tip
[13:10] <sammmmy1357> yup action they say it as a bug but no one suggests a workaround...
[13:10] <ActionParsnip2> slacker_nl: its a purely data directory
[13:10] <Chilired> anyone know if during ubuntu install it can handle booting OSX86 thats allready installed
[13:11] <slacker_nl> ActionParsnip2: better to then do chmod 755 /path/to/stuff ; find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
