[04:05] <DaveD0101> escott, Wow this unity launcher is half-baked.  Aside from drop to add being broken, and the icon thing being absent, and scaling the bar causes any custom ones to turn to question marks... now I've found that any java app launched via sh precludes the addition of a different one launched the same way, and even triggers backlighting on the wrong app.
[04:05] <bisby> nm. its not just apt-get. speedtest.net is now reporting .2 mbps too
[04:05] <ActionParsnip> jamiewan: its badass :)
[04:06] <jamiewan> yeah all good now, thanx for that was troubled by slow apt off and on for months
[04:06] <Zyclops> hey, i'd like to monitor cpu, network traffic, hdd space etc
[04:07] <escott> !classic | DaveD0101
[04:07] <Zyclops> and graph + send emails
[04:07] <Zyclops> any recommendations on what software to use?
[04:07] <jamiewan> Zyclops, install conky
[04:07] <cg> Zyclops: munin
[04:07] <Aginor> Zyclops, cacti
[04:07] <ActionParsnip> Zyclops: you can monitor it with Conky
[04:07] <xiaoshen> hi all
[04:07] <bisby> so are there any known problems with wireless n cards or ipv6 or soemthing? my internet speeds are fine in win7 but terrible in ubuntu
[04:07] <Zyclops> conky, cacti, munin… i've used cacti for network traffic before
[04:08] <Zyclops> not used the other two
[04:08] <jamiewan> Zyclops, conky for me is the best, runs in background all info on the desktop its great
[04:08] <gsp2009> hey folks.. .trying to help out a buddy who is still running fiesty. If he upgrades the distro, will he have to go through each version? or is there a way to upgrade directly to say, 10.10 or 11. 04?
[04:08] <escott> gsp2009, the only jumps allowed are from lts to lts
[04:09] <Zyclops> jamiewan: has it got a web interface or soemthing like that?  i have like 6 servers to monitor
[04:09] <gsp2009> escott... thanks. :)
[04:09] <Aginor> Zyclops, cacti is what you want, or nagios
[04:09] <jamiewan> Zyclops, not sure prob cacti for you be better
[04:09] <Aginor> Zyclops, http://www.nagios.org/
[04:10] <phpguy306> whats the chmod command to add group permission to all files/fiolders in var/www
[04:10] <Zyclops> nagious.. is what my old work used to do
[04:10] <Zyclops> intersting
[04:10] <Aginor> Zyclops, http://www.cacti.net/
[04:10] <escott> bisby, are you sure the problem is with your system, and not the remote server?
[04:11] <gsp2009> escott: so... he would go 7.10, then 8.04 to 10.04? is that right? This may be better/easier just to d/l and reinstall from scratch.
[04:11] <DaveD0101> escott, ubottu : Good tip, I'll probably just do that.  This unity thing was a neat idea, it's just badly incomplete.
[04:11] <escott> phpguy306, chmod -R g+? /var/www
[04:11] <xiaoshen> is there a ssh server installer package on ubuntu livecd??
[04:11] <bisby> escott, yes. my phone is running fine, my other computers are running fine. win7 is running fine on this computer. ubuntu 11.04 gets dialup speeds almost
[04:11] <escott> gsp2009, that far back i would just do a fresh install... i would also worry about the hardware and the experience after a fresh install
[04:11] <phpguy306> escott: no question mark though right?
[04:12] <escott> phpguy306, you didn't specify what permission you wanted to give the group
[04:12] <Overlord-sirus> Ok, who helped me earlier?
[04:13] <Overlord-sirus> With the wireless cardbus?
[04:13] <phpguy306> escott: i added a user to the www-data, and will have him login via sftp. But allt eh folders/files dont have group permission on it. so i thought i would add group permission to all files/folders for him
[04:13] <xiaoshen> is there a ssh server installer package on ubuntu livecd??
[04:13] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  no joy with the 'nomodeset'.... still gets to a Rapidly Blinking' login box.... with 'other' as the only choice....any other suggestions on how to successfully upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 .... amd64 machine
[04:13] <gsp2009> escott: thanks alot for your help.
[04:13] <escott> bisby, maybe there is something with your wireless card driver. linux has a higher transmit queue buffer (bufferbloat.net), but its rather hard to say from speedtest.net. i would transfer some big files around your local network to see if thats really the problem
[04:14] <Overlord-sirus> xiao - if you can't find one look in the software center
[04:14] <ace0s> hey guys, is anyone here familiar with argspoof ?
[04:15] <escott> ace0s, do you mean arpspoof?
[04:15] <Overlord-sirus> Ok, so I tried the file that guy gave me earlier, RALINK, and it came up fine and I got it in the comp, but where the hell do I put it??
[04:16] <Overlord-sirus> Anyone?
[04:17] <escott> !illegal | ace0s if you really want to do this on your own network find a networking channel
[04:17] <Overlord-sirus> SOmeone has to know where to put a raw wireless driver in a Ubuntu type load.
[04:17] <zoaz> hi can someone help me use xchat for irc?
[04:18] <Overlord-sirus> xchat is irc
[04:18] <zoaz> i can't use it
[04:18] <Overlord-sirus> just named xchat
[04:18] <Overlord-sirus> why? whats wrong?
[04:18] <krux> hey can't use emerald borders with unity ?..
[04:18] <zoaz> it says "Notice -- You need to identify via SASL to use this server"
[04:19] <zoaz> and keeps trying to reconnect
[04:19] <escott> zoaz, ignore it. its spam
[04:19] <Logan_> escott: Not necessarily.
[04:19] <Overlord-sirus> what serv are you trying to join anyway?  You're already in a server.
[04:19] <Logan_> zoaz: Which server?
[04:19] <zoaz> Freenode
[04:19] <Overlord-sirus> ur i freenode by default
[04:19] <Overlord-sirus> in*
[04:19] <zoaz> I'm using the webclient here
[04:19] <Overlord-sirus> ah
[04:20] <Hardin> zoaz: I had the same problem earlier
[04:20] <escott> Logan_, sorry i thought he was reacting to all the SASL spam from the past few days
[04:20] <Hardin> zoaz: Xchat?
[04:20] <zoaz> yep
[04:20] <spasysheep> is there a way to make windows maximize the old way; with the close / minimize / maximize and title in a bar at the top of the window rather than merged with the panel?
[04:20] <Overlord-sirus> what server are you trying to contct?  freenode is the standard login page.
[04:20] <Hardin> zoaz: It was a problem with my router
[04:21] <zoaz> well I'm on mobile hotspot....
[04:21] <Overlord-sirus> laptop or tower zoaz?
[04:21] <Overlord-sirus> so laptop
[04:21] <Hardin> zoaz: Wasn't letting me use the port
[04:21] <Overlord-sirus> try a seperate port number, like 6697
[04:21] <zoaz> I just think I should be able to use xchat if I can use the web client
[04:22] <Hardin> zoaz: no the webchat is over http (port 80)
[04:22] <Logan_> This really doesn't have anything to do with Ubuntu.
[04:22] <Hardin> zoaz: try irssi, might work
[04:23] <magn3ts> same protocol, not likely to be different.
[04:23] <magn3ts> If you can get more info zoaz it'd be helpful.
[04:23] <mickey> can a vpn hide ur internet activity from a network administrator?
[04:23] <magn3ts> like at what point you get that message, etc.
[04:23] <escott> spasysheep, OMG Ubuntu had something about unity-tweak today. maybe that has an option to not merge the panel
[04:23] <magn3ts> mickey, well, aside from the fact that it will be obvious, yes.
[04:23] <spasysheep> escott, thanks, I'll check it out
[04:23] <mickey> what do u mean?
[04:23] <Overlord-sirus> change the port number to your comps port, if you know what it is.  I'm not sure WHAT the comp number is by default, but your load of xchat may be trying to run on a different port that isn't even related to your computer.  Like a server that you connected to, like at a school or a hospital.
[04:23] <zoaz> it's trying port 8001
[04:24] <davros> any one try gnome 3 yet? and have system put unity back?
[04:24] <escott> mickey, they will probably notice a large bandwith encrypted channel on a port that is not 8080
[04:24] <magn3ts> mickey, your network admin will be able to see lots of encrypted garbage traffic. It will be obvious that it's a SSH tunnel or VPN connection but they won't be able to see what you're doing.
[04:24] <Hardin> davros: Didn't get you there
[04:24] <Random_Fool> Hey everyone, question about running x11vnc & xubuntu 11.04, I've recently reinstalled my media-pc had it all up and running, made a couple changes to /etc/gdm/Init (added x11vnc -safer -forever -thread) to boot x11vnc on its boot, and it only displays a black screen, i can connect in via tightVNC still
[04:24] <magn3ts> 8080? I think you meant 80, 443, etc.
[04:24] <Hardin> davros: Yes, I am using unity on natty
[04:24] <escott> rather 443
[04:24] <Seqis> zoaz, just ssh to a box at home, then tunnel a socks proxy for irc
[04:24] <magn3ts> mickey, They can still also guess based on the bandwidth shape that you're streaming/torrenting but that would still be hard.
[04:24] <davros> no i want gnome 3
[04:25] <mickey> hmm.... interesting
[04:25] <q_wet> hey guys, i installed XArp and everytime i try to open it after asking for my password it doesn't open or an error message appears saying that the root user is using it, has anyone else had this problem?
[04:25] <Overlord-sirus> question is, can zoaz actually do that?
[04:25] <escott> !gnome3 | davros
[04:25] <mickey> it would be hard to track, or hard to set up?
[04:25] <Hardin> davros: Then install the gnome-shell package
[04:25] <zoaz> I don't have another box :(
[04:25] <magn3ts> davros, I highly recommend that you do NOT use that PPa.
[04:25] <mickey> or both?
[04:25] <zoaz> and this is my only connection
[04:25] <ActionParsnip> davros: gnome3 is available but its not supported here
[04:25] <Overlord-sirus> well that sucks
[04:25] <Hardin> zoaz: Try irssi
[04:25] <davros> i kno
[04:25] <magn3ts> zoaz, just get more info on when the error pops up, it's overkill to need to ssh/socks proxy for IRC.
[04:25] <Overlord-sirus> do you have a wifi card?
[04:25] <Hardin> !irssi | zoaz
[04:26] <magn3ts> That !gnome3 factoid needs to go. Completely. That PPA does nothing but break my VM everytime I try it.
[04:26] <Hardin> zoaz: just apt-get install it , it worked fo=r me when I had trouble
[04:26] <Hardin> zoaz: with xchat
[04:26] <factotum> wow, i am really liking xfce these days! *ducks*
[04:26] <Hardin> zoaz: for some reason
[04:26] <escott> Random_Fool, i think you need to wait to start x11vnc until after login, but i don't know for sure
[04:27] <mickey> magn3ts, do u know of a tutorial i could use to set that up?
[04:27] <ActionParsnip> magn3ts: it gives people the option, i's their risk
[04:27] <Overlord-sirus> why even hate xfce?  I haven't had it crash yet!
[04:27] <Random_Fool> escott - its set up for auto-login,, and unfortunatly i cant even get a terminal window open right now
[04:27] <Overlord-sirus> :D
[04:27] <magn3ts> ActionParsnip, there's lots of things that are less risky that are discouraged here on a more regular basis IMO.
[04:27] <ActionParsnip> Overlord-sirus: I prefer lxde :)
[04:27] <magn3ts> mickey, depends, exactly what are you triyng to do? There's lots of different ways of going about it.
[04:27] <Overlord-sirus> Never tried
[04:28] <ActionParsnip> magn3ts: true, but the warnings are clear. If people choose to ignore them that is their choice
[04:28] <escott> Random_Fool, I would just worry you are racing the vnc to start before the X server is up. where exactly did you put the x11vnc (and where did you get the idea to do it that way)
[04:28] <Overlord-sirus> I want to get my hands on fluxbox, like a load of nubuntu.  I always thought it would be fun to play with.
[04:28] <Seqis> xfce 4.8 is the choice to make for those who can't stand gnome 3 or unity (Xubuntu)
[04:28] <mickey> magn3ts, i'm trying to torrent annonymously and also hide internet activity
[04:28] <magn3ts> mickey, Do you trust your endpoint?
[04:28] <Lewoco> How do I change my window manager to xfwm4?
[04:28] <mickey> sorry, i dont know what u mean
[04:28] <magn3ts> mickey, do you have a VPN provider in mind? Or do you have a PC at home that you trust as safe?
[04:29] <Overlord-sirus> good question :D
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> Lewoco: press ALT+F2 and run: xfce4 --replace
[04:29] <magn3ts> mickey, to do a VPN, you need someone who's going to provide you with an endpoint, eventually your torrent has to connect to the wide internet.
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> Lewoco: you get the idea
[04:29] <Overlord-sirus> actually.... wait.....
[04:29] <magn3ts> mickey, I think ThePirateBay runs a VPN, I don't know if it's any good or how expensive it is.
[04:29] <Seqis> ActionParsnip, I think its xfwm --replace
[04:29] <Lewoco> ActionParsnip, Sorry I didn't ask the right question. How do I make it do that by default?
[04:29] <Overlord-sirus> I think I might even have nubuntu somewhere
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> Seqis: yeah, that sort of jazz ;0
[04:30] <pfifo> is there a program suitable to perfome the function of 'flash media live encoder' for linux yet?
[04:30] <ActionParsnip> Lewoco: you can add a startup app to run it
[04:30] <Lewoco> ActionParsnip, Well that will start start metacity first wont it?
[04:30] <Seqis> metacity != xfce
[04:30] <magn3ts> mickey, is this making sense? I can try to find a picture if it would hlep.
[04:30] <ActionParsnip> Lewoco: sure but only for a sec
[04:30] <mickey> magn3ts, so i would set up my desktop at home as the client?
[04:31] <Lewoco> Isn't there some way I can just tell X to run xfwm4 directly instead of metacity?
[04:31] <ActionParsnip> Lewoco: theres a setting in gconf someplace but I don't use gnome so much these days to know
[04:31] <magn3ts> mickey, What internet traffic are you trying to hide? Home Computer -> internet? Laptop->Internet? Phone->Internet?
[04:31] <escott> pfifo, ffmpeg and mplayer can probably both encode the video format, i don't know about the flv container though
[04:31] <Overlord-sirus> Woo, the house is shaking from lightning! OH BOY
[04:31] <mickey> home to internet
[04:32] <mickey> is that possible?
[04:32] <pfifo> escott, no
[04:32] <Overlord-sirus> what do you mean?
[04:32] <magn3ts> mickey, yes, but I'm not sure you understand how this works. Let me show you :)
[04:32] <mickey> cool, thanks
[04:33] <i_is_broke> is there a way to pin the terminal to the taskbar in 11.04?
[04:33] <Overlord-sirus> oh hey cool, I do have a nubuntu load disc....  now what was wrong with it?
[04:33] <escott> i_is_broke, right click on the icon and select pin
[04:33] <Overlord-sirus> goto menu, pull off menu, put in task bar
[04:33] <Overlord-sirus> like windows
[04:33] <Random_Fool> escott - placed it @ the very end of Init, just before the exit 0, and as bad it'll sound i ran it similarly before to have it autoload on boot on the old 9.04 ubuntu install
[04:33] <magn3ts> mickey, [Your Computer (<IP_ADDRESS>)] ----VPN---> [Ipredator account (<IP_ADDRESS>)]  -----> Internet.
[04:34] <Overlord-sirus> yay, IP address...
[04:34] <magn3ts> mickey, this way, all of your traffic to the Internet comes out of the IP Address <IP_ADDRESS>. The "Internet" at large doesn't know where that traffic originally came from.
[04:34]  * ejv can feel the nmapping starting up
[04:34] <mickey> I predator is the software?
[04:35] <magn3ts> mickey, it's not softare, it's a VPN account on a remote computer.
[04:35] <escott> Random_Fool, im not too familiar with vnc but if it can run as your uid (which it probably should) then you should add it to your session startup applications. not that i know where that would be in unity (11.04)
[04:35] <tje2> Howdy all.
[04:35] <ejv> fellas, I have ubuntu-server and would like to load a light-weight gnome desktop environment. which package should I fetch that is the *most minimal*? thank you.
[04:35] <magn3ts> mickey, if the software was on your computer, it would still come from your IP Address, and thus not be anonymous.
[04:35] <ubuntuguy> I had a spacer in my unity launcher, I right clicked on my launcher and removed it, I really need it back, how can I add a spacer? Is there a command line to restart ot unity lancher?
[04:35] <Overlord-sirus> OH, I remember!  I couldn't get the wireless to work on nubuntu...  anyone have any ideas?
[04:35] <html_inprogress> hi
[04:35] <magn3ts> mickey, the internet isn't an anonymous place. When content goes out to the Internet, it has to originate somewhere. It's basically like driving to another town to mail a package anonymously... You're sending your traffic to another server and then it sends it out and pretends to be the origin to hide your identity.
[04:36] <tje2> Can anyone tell me which repository I need to have in my sources.list to be able to find/install KAudioCreator?   I've got the 'main', 'restricted', 'multiverse', and 'universe' repositories, yet apt-cache(1) doesn't find it.
[04:36] <tje2> Is KAudioCreator even in the official Ubuntu repos anymore?
[04:36] <magn3ts> mickey, the picture here isn't fantastic, but it might help: https://www.ipredator.se/?lang=en
[04:36] <escott> Random_Fool, or better yet in /etc/init/gdm/PostLogin/Default thats clearly where they want it
[04:36] <Logan_> Overlord-sirus: We do not support derivatives of Ubuntu in this channel.
[04:36] <Overlord-sirus> sudo apt-get kaaudiocenter
[04:36] <html_inprogress> Overlord-sirus, whats you need?,   whats your
[04:37] <Overlord-sirus> or whatever it is
[04:37] <Random_Fool> escott - ok thanks for your help
[04:37] <mickey> magne3ts, i read somewhere that it encrypts all the packets i send and receive even before it gets to the router, is that right?
[04:37] <Overlord-sirus> whats my whut?
[04:38] <Seqis> hmm I wouldn't bother with ipredator... just get a VPS and ssh through there, or use the VPS server
[04:38] <magn3ts> mickey, if you make a VPN connection to an iPredator server, it MIGHT be encrypted... it depends on what type of VPN it is. I believe all are encrypted by default.
[04:38] <tje2> Overlord-sirus,   Thanks for the attempt, but that doesn't work.   Believe me, I know what I'm doing here, I've been running Linux for 15 - 16 years now.  What I'm asking is what Ubuntu repository do I need to have in my sources.list(5) file so that apt-get can find it?
[04:38] <magn3ts> Seqis, a VPS stored where? In the US? How will that help if he is torrenting illegally? He'll get caught all the same?
[04:38] <tje2> What I'm saying is that KAudioCreator does not appear to be in the 'main', 'restricted', 'multiverse', or 'universe' repositories.
[04:38] <Seqis> magn3ts, Oh .. this is for illegal activity... I wasn't aware that was the context.
[04:38] <ActionParsnip> !find kaudio
[04:39] <Seqis> Surprise they allow that sort of chatter on #ubuntu
[04:39] <Seqis> surprised*
[04:39] <magn3ts> Seqis, well that's the presumption I'm under. I use my VPS for up and up stuff but I'm actually thinking about investing in an anon vpn setup as well.
[04:39] <ActionParsnip> !illegal
[04:39] <magn3ts> Seqis, well that's the assumption I was going on, I don't know that it was explicit. He merely said he wanted his data encrypted in transport.
[04:39] <escott> magn3ts, mickey can we please take the whole vpn/vps stuff somewhere else its clearly for something other than hiding web surfing for the boss and is taking time away from everyone else
[04:39] <Seqis> well if they raid ipredator in sweden, all bets are off, man3
[04:39] <Seqis> err magn3ts
[04:39] <escott> magn3ts, he was pretty clear what he wanted to do
[04:40] <magn3ts> escott, interesting that I can take time, but I'd be happy to move it to a PM.
[04:40] <Ziber> On 11.04, can I somehow reorder the icons on the sidebar?
[04:40] <ubuntuguy> I had a spacer in my unity launcher, I right clicked on my launcher and removed it, I really need it back, how can I add a spacer? Is there a command line to restart ot unity lancher?
[04:40] <FerretWithASpork> Everytime I boot I see this message: "Udevd-work[84]: '/sbin/blkid -o udev -p /dev/sda1' unexpected exit with status 0" Anyone have any idea what it means? I can't get grub to work no matter what I do and I feel this may be part of the issue?
[04:40] <julian_c> Ziber: Just drag and drop to move the launcher icons.
[04:40] <magn3ts> Meh, it says "torrent anonymously". I don't like people knowing that I'm sharing Ubuntu. heh.
[04:40] <Overlord-sirus> html_inprogress - what did you mean?  I don't know what you asked me exactly.
[04:40] <julian_c> (should work for most of the icons)
[04:40] <magn3ts> mickey, can you PM me, or I will PM you, we need to take this out of #ubuntu
[04:41] <magn3ts> sorry for the trouble folks.
[04:41] <html_inprogress> tje2,  here you gohttp://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/198397
[04:41] <Seqis> don't forget to encrypt your pm magn3ts...
[04:41] <escott> FerretWithASpork, you can run that command and see what error it gives, sounds like your partition doesn't have a uuid?!
[04:42] <magn3ts> Seqis, haha
[04:42] <tje2> html_inprogress,   Thank you!    THAT is what I was looking for.
[04:42] <Overlord-sirus> doesn't a partition need a uuid to be accessible?
[04:42] <quiescens> of course, everything in this channel is logged publicly
[04:42] <quiescens> gasp!
[04:42] <html_inprogress> Overlord-sirus,  whats you problem,, not conneted? or dont work?   whats you os, hardware,software
[04:42] <julian_c> I did an upgrade today -- M --> N. The computer points to a local repo. As usual, I ran "do-release-upgrade" (which usually works just fine).
[04:43] <aldin> hi where do i ask questions related to launchpad & translations of some packages?
[04:43] <html_inprogress> tje2, :)  you wellcoomeee!
[04:43] <escott> Overlord-sirus, the uuid thing is somewhat new, but its definitely the preferred method these days
[04:43] <roarke> Question,can I use ubuntu repos in openSUSE?
[04:43] <Overlord-sirus> well, you can't really help me unless you have used nubuntu before or know how to get a wifi cardbus to work for it.
[04:43] <FerretWithASpork> escott I get a segmentation fault when I try to run it. Isn't that a memory error?
[04:43] <julian_c> This particular computer started out on Jaunty. For the first time, it wouldn't use the local repo with default settings.
[04:43] <edbian> roarke: no def not
[04:43] <escott> FerretWithASpork, no it means the blkid application read something from your partition table and then sh*t itself because it wasn't in the expected format
[04:44] <FerretWithASpork> escott lol I see. Is there any way to fix that? like maybe a diaper?
[04:44] <escott> FerretWithASpork, sda1 is ntfs correct? do you know if it is gpt or msdos partition
[04:44] <roarke> edbian' but would the same apps in ubuntu work in openSUSE?
[04:44] <julian_c> It turned out that I had to simply add a custom config file to the directory </etc/update-manager/release-upgrades.d> that would override the default practice of turning off all third-party repos.
[04:44] <datakid> hola, just did an upgrade on lucid LTS and I'm getting the following error: http://paste.debian.net/116704/
[04:44] <FerretWithASpork> escott It is ntfs but I have no idea what gpt is. it's Windows 7 if that helps
[04:45] <datakid> I can see what the error is saying, but I'm wondering how to fix?
[04:45] <escott> FerretWithASpork, what does sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda say (use !pastebin)
[04:45] <edbian> roarke: There is a package called alien for us .deb users.  It allows us to install .rpm packages.  It is very dangerous and generally a bad idea.  I'm not sure if there is some reverse thing.
[04:45] <datakid> basically, libldap has been upgraded but the slapd dependecy list hasnt?
[04:45] <FerretWithASpork> escott: the weird thing is in the ubuntu disk utility it doesn't recognize sda1 as a filesystem it says "Unknown 300GB // Usage -"
[04:46] <escott> FerretWithASpork, i think its this flexnet thing
[04:46] <Overlord-sirus> FerrettWithASpork - odd.  is it an external drive?
[04:46] <FerretWithASpork> Overlord-sirus: nope, internal
[04:46] <FerretWithASpork> escott: http://pastebin.com/khpAPFp6
[04:47] <Overlord-sirus> FerrettWithASpork - Dual HDD?
[04:47] <FerretWithASpork> Overlord-sirus: yep
[04:47] <Overlord-sirus> Neat.
[04:47] <ubuntuguy> Source (http://www.ibiblio.org/expo/soviet.exhibit/famine.html)
[04:48] <afeijo> how can I install/enable apc in my php?
[04:48] <FerretWithASpork> escott: I found a tutorial that had me delete the FlexNet from sector 32. I installed grub with no warning and I booted into ubuntu, but I now can't access windows
[04:49] <julian_c> afeijo: Install the "php-apc" package, and then reload Apache. Before reloading Apache, make any necessary changes to the corresponding .ini files in your PHP configuration.
[04:50] <escott> FerretWithASpork, try vol_id -u /dev/sda1
[04:50] <afeijo> julian_c, it worked! thanks :)
[04:50] <FerretWithASpork> escott: vol_id command not found
[04:50] <spasysheep> am I correct in thinking that the 'type' for ntfs partitions in fstab is ntfs-3g?
[04:50] <julian_c> You're welcome, afeijo.
[04:50] <escott> nevermind then
[04:50] <edbian> spasysheep: yes
[04:51] <escott> vol_id isn't going to be helpful anyways so...
[04:51] <afeijo> shall I install memcached too?
[04:51] <someh4x0r> Hello, does anybody know how to force ubuntu on pandaboard to a specific screen resolution? It does not seem to detect my monitor correctly and goes to 640x480. It does work on my HDTV.
[04:51] <FerretWithASpork> It's looking like I might just have to format both the drives completely, repartition, and reinstall
[04:51] <ray24> pic
[04:51] <spasysheep> edbian, thanks. are the settings for <options>, <dump>, and <pass> important? what should I set those as?
[04:52] <edbian> spasysheep: You're editing /etc/fstab?
[04:52] <datakid> anyone have a solution to this? slapd depends on libldap-2.4-2 (= 2.4.21-0ubuntu5.3); however:
[04:52] <datakid>   Version of libldap-2.4-2 on system is 2.4.21-0ubuntu5.4.
[04:52] <spasysheep> edbian, yes, I want my ntfs shared data partiton to mount on boot
[04:52] <edbian> spasysheep: Here's a detailed guide.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab   for options you want 'defaults,user' probably, pass and dump should both be 0  You have to have an entry for every column
[04:53] <spasysheep> edbian, thanks
[04:53] <edbian> spasysheep: auto makes it mount at boot (defaults,user,auto) but I think auto is included in defaults
[04:53] <edbian> spasysheep: No problem
[04:53] <escott> FerretWithASpork, i would check with #grub they may be more knowledgeable. my guess (and its only a guess) is that the uuids are supposed to be stored somewhere between the mbr and the first partition, but flexnet is in the way which is breaking blkid. you could try to hardcode the device name in your /boot/grub/grub.cfg or remove flexnet (if it won't invalidate your license)
[04:53] <julian_c> afeijo: It wouldn't hurt. Also be sure to install and configure the "memcached" package (I think...).
[04:54] <afeijo> ok
[04:54] <kizzo> When I run "service privoxy status" it says that it's running, but when I nmap the port that privoxy should be running on, nothing is listening.
[04:54] <FerretWithASpork> escott: Okay thanks for the advice
[04:54] <kizzo> Oh wait - nvm
[04:54] <Random_Fool> escott -- sorry about that, looks like you are right, put a monitor onto the pc, commented out the line, and now its back up and running partially
[04:54] <Ziber> How do I get to keyboard shortcuts in 11.04?
[04:54] <kizzo> Let me check one more thing - the privoxy logs..
[04:55] <escott> Random_Fool, you can't run X server without a display device
[04:55] <phungvantu> Unexpected logout fron Natty?
[04:55] <phungvantu> How to fix it
[04:55] <phungvantu> Pls help me
[04:55] <escott> Random_Fool, have you considered using ssh with X tunneling
[04:55] <Random_Fool> escott -- thats one of the reasons I run the media-pc used to use it as an ssh server into my internal network
[04:55] <trism> Ziber: hit the power button near the clock/System Settings/Keyboard Shortcuts
[04:56] <escott> Random_Fool, and nothing to be sorry about
[04:56] <Ziber> How can I get the mac-like application switcher on 11.04?
[04:56] <yoshie> Install problem ubuntu freezing during installation, didnt have the problem before 9.04. Think its the video card ( Nvidia GT 240
[04:57] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: where all app windows are visible?
[04:57] <Random_Fool> escott -- just setting up an internal only vnc server on it for now, and if i need external connections again I'll reset up my router, and do the routing properly in xubuntu for the ssh server
[04:57] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: yes.
[04:57] <escott> Ziber, do you mean the "expose" i think it is super s or check !ccsm
[04:57] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=803670
[04:57] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: super + s is the workspace switcher
[04:57] <adminter> heloo
[04:58] <adminter> hiloo
[04:58] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: look at the scale plugin
[04:58] <adminter> how are you?
[04:58] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: does compiz work with 11.04?
[04:58] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: yes it flys here
[04:59] <Ziber> alright :)
[04:59] <someh4x0r> how does omapfb.mode work exactly (on Pandaboard)? any clear explanation?
[04:59] <afeijo> julian_c, the pakage name is php5-mencache ;)
[04:59] <afeijo> julian_c++
[04:59] <escott> Ziber, shift-alt-up on mine
[05:00] <Ziber> escott: oh, ty! but, how can i change that?
[05:00] <escott> !ccsm | Ziber
[05:00] <yoshie> Install problem ubuntu freezing during installation, didnt have the problem before 9.04. Think its the video card ( Nvidia GT 240
[05:00] <julian_c> afeijo: I sometimes get confused with php5-memcache and php5-memcached. The former might be easier to work with.
[05:00] <escott> under scale (its in the window switcher section) and then the bindings tab
[05:01] <Israfel> I need a new wireless card for my PC. I've gone through about 10 that just don't work in Ubuntu.
[05:01] <FerretWithASpork> I just plugged in an external drive that's formatted to Apple HFS+ and it's read-only. Is there any way to write to it?
[05:02] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: add boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1
[05:02] <someh4x0r> israfel: some (many?) d-link cards work (Atheros chipset)
[05:02] <escott> FerretWithASpork, no ro for HFS+
[05:02] <ActionParsnip> yoshie: new releases have display timings in the kernel, hence no issues in the older versions
[05:02] <Ziber> I installed ccsm because compiz gives me an error...
[05:02] <Israfel> The one I'm using now has a max speed of 1Mb/s but slows to about 50k.
[05:02] <yoshie> @Actionparsnip ok let me try that real quick
[05:03] <Israfel> someh4x0r, I need to know which ones have the best support. Many work but are crippled in speed.
[05:04] <julian_c> !hfsplus
[05:04] <SinnerNyx> Ok I need to build PHP without suhosin...
[05:04] <julian_c> (oops... not in there)
[05:04] <edbian> Israfel: I don't mean to offend you but I strongly suspect many of the cards worked and you just couldn't figure out how to configure them correctly
[05:04] <Ziber> Well, thats cool. In compiz, trying to enable desktop cube, i've lost 11.04's dock and stuff...
[05:05] <julian_c> FerretWithASpork: A little more on HFS+ and Ubuntu: <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/hfsplus>.
[05:05] <Israfel> edbian, I have 3 computers. Everything works with Windows on this PC, (dualboot). My laptop with Ubuntu also works fine. There's several bugreports for the cards I bought. I'm tired of buying the wrong ones.
[05:05] <escott> FerretWithASpork, apparently you can do read-write if you disable journaling
[05:06] <julian_c> Just like with NTFS, write is possible, but proceed with caution.
[05:06] <edbian> Israfel: I'm sorry you're had so much trouble.
[05:06] <Israfel> edbian, I also tried serialmonkey drivers, ndiswrapper, etc.
[05:06] <FerretWithASpork> julian_c / escott: thanks i'll look into it
[05:06] <ray24> Hi, I installed starcraft on ubuntu , the game runs, but I get a blank screen when I try to play. Why is that?
[05:07] <Israfel> I'm trying to upgrade to 11.04 to see if that fixes it, but I have 16 days left of downloads.
[05:07] <escott> julian_c, thats a good link it probably should be added to the bot
[05:07] <cryptodira> i see that xscreensaver is removed for the upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 .... does this mean it will no longer run under 11.04 ... OR... can it be reinstalled?   what is the replacement screensaver for 11.04>
[05:07] <ActionParsnip> ray24: check the appdb for suggestions, you can also ask in #winehq
[05:08] <jamiewan> Israfel, 16 Days??? Dial up? lol
[05:08] <escott> cryptodira, gnome-screensaver
[05:09] <Israfel> jamiewan, crappy WMP54G (linksys) wireless card.
[05:09] <UBuxuBU> does anyone know when 10.04 lts runs out
[05:09] <cryptodira> escott: doe this mean that xscreen saver will not run under 11.04?
[05:09] <saalaa__> sorry, I know I'm gonna be rude but I need a quick advice
[05:09] <jamiewan> 13.04
[05:09] <edbian> Israfel: What driver are you using?
[05:09] <jamiewan> 3 years lts
[05:10] <UBuxuBU> i know
[05:10] <ActionParsnip> UBuxuBU: on desktop or server?
[05:10] <saalaa__> isn't there a better way than top/htop to know what process(es) are eating the computer power and/or memory?
[05:10] <escott> cryptodira, im sure you could compile it but they created gnome-screensaver to replace it
[05:10] <someh4x0r> Israfel: try using iperf to see if it is really your wireless card and not your internet connection
[05:10] <UBuxuBU> but when does it end
[05:10] <UBuxuBU> desktop
[05:10] <qin> !maverick
[05:10] <Israfel> edbian, Right now I'm using the one that came with Ubuntu. The ndiswrapper one was even slower.
[05:10] <ActionParsnip> 10.04 released in 2010 in april + 3 years = 2013 in april
[05:10] <tje2> saalaa__,   You might check out "powertop"
[05:10] <Israfel> someh4x0r, it's not my internet, I have other computers doing just fine.
[05:10] <UBuxuBU> ok ty
[05:10] <jamiewan> yeah 13.04
[05:11] <UBuxuBU> i tried 11.04 and it is a mess
[05:11] <tje2> saalaa__,   I think it requires an Intel-based CPU, but it should give you an idea of where your power consumption is going to.
[05:11] <cryptodira> escott: this then is a NEW gnome... that replaces the current ones found in 10.04 and 10.10 ?
[05:11] <ActionParsnip> UBuxuBU: lts == 3 years support on desktop, intermediate release is supported 1.5 years on desktop
[05:11] <ActionParsnip> !unity
[05:11] <saalaa__> actually, I was thinking that my current problem is not CPU/memory related but rather IO related
[05:11] <tje2> saalaa__,   Then check out iotop, iostat, vmstat, etc.
[05:12] <saalaa__> our partition with postgresql's data was out of free space so, the system is probably clearing some backlog
[05:12] <saalaa__> tje2, thanks
[05:12] <k_sze> What does fdi stand for? (you know, those *.fdi files used by HAL)
[05:13] <saalaa__> tje2: thanks
[05:13] <vaxinated> i like unity
[05:14] <jamiewan> ActionParsnip, are you using Natty?
[05:14] <cryptodira> escott: , ActionParsnip: i have been unable to get beyond the rapidly blinking 'other' login screen while trying to UpGrade to 11.04 from 10.10 .... so am trying the built in upgrade route....are either of you aware of any "gotchas" that i should watch for in relation to the problems with trying to upgrade from cd?
[05:14] <saalaa__> it's kinda stupid because I never took the time to understand those tools and I have no idea of what I should be looking for ^^
[05:14] <tje2> saalaa__,  Glad I could help.   Please refer to the manpages for each for additional information.  But if you're wanting to see where your I/O is, those are the tools.
[05:14] <RKyle> Hi, when you do an upgrade through ssh and it gives you a back up port in case something goes wrong. Does anyone know what the default backup port number is or does it decide randomly?
[05:15] <escott> cryptodira, mine was uneventful (as had all past upgrades) but given that you are having problems with the livecd its hard to say what might happen
[05:15] <RudeTux> does anybody know how to make ubuntu bootable from an usb external hard drive? i tried diferent solutions but i just aint becoming succesful...i really need help please..
[05:16] <ActionParsnip> RudeTux: unetbootin or the 1 2 3 app from pendrivelinux can do it. I assume your BIOS can boot USB storage
[05:16] <cryptodira> escott: ok,.... the previous upgrades via local burned cd... worked fine.... not sure what the deal with 11.04 is... Thanks for your thoughts and help.
[05:16] <enstein> weh
[05:16] <vaxinated> RudeTux: You can load grub from your main system and run your USB loaded system from its boot.
[05:17] <saalaa__> tje2: that was a very diplomatic RTFM :)
[05:17] <tje2> saalaa__,   Thank you, thank you.  ;)
[05:18] <tje2> saalaa__,   I've worked a handful of years doing tech support for dialup (at first), DSL, cable (both biz and residential), metro ethernet over fiber, etc... So yeah, I'm REAL good about telling someone to RTFM without being rude about it.
[05:18] <tje2> saalaa__,  But honestly, but NOT reading the documentation and having someone answer all of your questions for you, you only end up short-changing yourself.  If you take those extra few minutes to RTFM, you'll find that next time you encounter such a issue, you'll know what to do and why that's the thing to do.
[05:20] <dei2anged> Alright, so I have a question and I don't know where to begin looking. I'm getting error 15 with Grub on boot after upgrading to 11.04.
[05:20] <saalaa__> tje2: not that I was complaining about a good RTFM.. I'm not the kind to ask for people to do my stuff. I just have to learn new tools in the worst possible moment (indeed). Pointers were all I was asking for
[05:21] <saalaa__> tje2: btw, I read an article talking about sar, what are your thoughts?
[05:21] <tje2> saalaa__,   I know what you mean.   I don't mind pointing someone in the direction of a specific tool, I just don't like answering questions about that tool that can be found in the manpages.
[05:21] <saalaa__> that's the only program I haven't heard of before in the list
[05:21] <PalinBachman2012> dei2anged: did you google grub, error 15, it looks like file not found
[05:21] <ActionParsnip> dei2anged: boot to livecd and you can reinstate grub from there
[05:21] <dei2anged> Googling has resulted in an incredible wealth of information that has been pretty useless to me since I'm not entirely positive what I should be changing.
[05:21] <soadkombucha> I installed Ubuntu 11.04 today, everything appears to be working properly, I have sound, ACPI, and wifi... And when I go to sound, it recognizes that there is a mic there, however, it seems that my webcam and microphone aren't working properly. Can anyone offer any help?
[05:21] <PalinBachman2012> dei2anged: are you sure you installed grub on the hd that is booted by your bios
[05:21] <escott> dei2anged, grub1 or grub2 in either case !grub seems in order
[05:21] <tje2> saalaa__,   Often times, the manpages won't tell you the answer to "what program can I use to do XXXXXXX?".   So I'll point you to the program that will do task XXXXXX, but then leave it up to them to read thru the documentation to understand it.
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: is it a laptop?
[05:22] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, yes.
[05:22] <tje2> saalaa__,   sar is a great utility.
[05:22] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, I can give you an exact model number if you need one.
[05:22] <dei2anged> All I did was hit, Upgrade ubuntu to Ubuntu 11.04 and it had a pretty pleasant automated progress bar that resulted in Error 15,
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: what make and model and why didn't you add it to the initial quesion?
[05:22] <escott> dei2anged, this is an older install that has been upgraded a couple times yes?
[05:22] <tje2> saalaa__,  Unfortunately, with sar, you have to let it run for some time and collect data.  It's not so much a real-time utility so much as a trending or historical analysis tool
[05:22] <soadkombucha> Because I didn't know if it was a common issue with laptops...
[05:22] <PalinBachman2012> dei2anged: you might try booting from the bios from a different hd if you have more than one? and make sure you have taken out all usb sticks, drives, etc
[05:22] <dei2anged> escott: indeed
[05:22] <soadkombucha> Toshiba Satellite L500D-ST2543
[05:23] <PalinBachman2012> cant remember what that error is when you have a usbstick in
[05:23] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: ok, does the webcam work in cheese?
[05:23] <soadkombucha> I'll go install Cheese and check it out really quick
[05:23] <dei2anged> PalinBachman2012: It's booting to the correct drive, I mean, I'm booting to the usb currently so I can ask these questions, lol
[05:23] <PalinBachman2012> lol
[05:23] <RudeTux> ActionParsnip: been there done that, my BIOS can boot USB storage ok. but here's the deal, the external hd is from an old laptop, and is being put to use since i dont have an optical drive to burn ubuntu's ISO. and i've been wanting to try it out and reform windows, but i want to use it diferent pcs so i need to use it in a external hd. i tryed to instal ubuntu using unetbootin and universal-
[05:23] <RudeTux> usb-installer, i formated my external hd to fat 32 but when grub loads a boot error accurs that asks me to ctrl+alt+del the pc indefinetly...
[05:23] <escott> dei2anged, a few years back they switched from grub1 to grub2 but it was optional. it seems like there may be some issues with grub1 users in 11.04 this is the second i've seen
[05:24] <dei2anged> yeah, it's been awhile since I updated so it wouldn't surprise me
[05:24] <PalinBachman2012> dei2anged: like he said, if its nothing like what i described, reinstall grub
[05:24] <escott> dei2anged, i would get a livecd, chroot yourself inside, install grub-pc and then reinstall grub
[05:24] <saalaa__> tje2: oh ok, it seems to provide some interesting info though
[05:24] <rogi> hi? need help/ i have ubuntu 11/04 and netbook with 1024 RAM? ubuntu says what i have only 680 RAM how it is possible?
[05:24] <dlbike76> Hi, how do you clear the list of recent files and folders in Unity's Launcher?
[05:24] <ray24> anyone here know how to install driver for ATI Radeon Xpress 200 card?
[05:24] <saalaa__> tje2: I'm sort of disappointed it's not in my repos
[05:24] <escott> !grub | dei2anged
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> rogi: thats not a question...
[05:25] <dei2anged> Alright, well, I'm going to try a couple things, brb regardless to espouse success or failure
[05:25] <escott> dlbike76, activity manager will allow you to do it one file at a time
[05:25] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, the webcam light comes on but the screen is black
[05:25] <tje2> saalaa__,  sar isn't in the standard repos?
[05:25] <escott> dlbike76, it will also allow you to establish blacklist folders
[05:26] <soadkombucha> But on a restart... It found the camera
[05:26] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: ok run:  lsusb   one line will identify the chip used in the cam. Use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[05:26] <escott> dlbike76, something a little more userfriendly is apparently in the works
[05:26] <tje2> Yeah, I don't find sar in my repos either... Hmmm.
[05:26] <PalinBachman2012> what is the definitive answer to why the webcam light is on, but screen is black
[05:26] <dlbike76> escott:  Does it still used the .recently-used.xbel under the covers, or is it all stored in dbus now?
[05:27] <escott> dlbike76, its now all in zeitgeist
[05:27] <ActionParsnip> PalinBachman2012: voodoo
[05:27] <Phibs> anyone know a proper fix for grub being foobar after upgrading from maverick to natty
[05:27] <RudeTux> ActionParsnip is it posible it has something to do with dualboot?
[05:27] <soadkombucha> Bus 002 Device 002: ID 04f2:b128 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
[05:27] <julian_c> sar is part of the "sysstat" package.
[05:27] <soadkombucha> That line?
[05:27] <PalinBachman2012> i have one that works with cheese, but seemingly not gchat or skype, altho it did work in skype once i maximized the screen
[05:27] <Almehdi> Does someone know how to integrate Google Calendar with the clock applet in Gnome-shell without using Evolution?
[05:27] <dlbike76> escott:  is that where the application lists are too?
[05:27] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: boot to livecd and you can repair it there
[05:27] <PalinBachman2012> so maybe, its a resolution error?
[05:28] <escott> dlbike76, zeitgeist stores all kinds of activity information. you can see everything it tracks in activity manager
[05:28] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: I'm booted up
[05:28] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: yes, use: 04f2:b128    and you'll find guides. Those are common
[05:28] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, it's not a USB camera...
[05:28] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: just need to fix it for next reboot now
[05:28] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, It's integrated.
[05:28] <escott> !grub | Phibs
[05:28] <Phibs> !qafailed
[05:28] <Phibs> I know how to use grub
[05:28] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, that's where I'm running into problems... With it being an integrated webcam and mic.
[05:28] <Phibs> I also know there's something broken in natty with it
[05:29] <bc81> i needi'm looking hard for a client to client chess game..any suggestions?
[05:29] <escott> PalinBachman2012,if it works in cheese you could try some LD_PRELOAD magic
[05:29] <wolter> is it true that gnome 3 shell gets very slow over time?
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: what is the name of your drive in the output of:  sudo fdisk -l
[05:29] <PalinBachman2012> escott: with skype? i thot that was all fixed
[05:29] <escott> PalinBachman2012, export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3
[05:29] <escott> LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
[05:29] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: sda
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: why, its the same as it being a usb based one
[05:29] <soadkombucha> It's not showing up under USB hubs.
[05:29] <Phibs> looks like this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/665471
[05:29] <escott> I wish im all upside down without v4l
[05:30] <Phibs> dunno how it is not fixed yet
[05:30] <RudeTux> someone could please help me out? :S
[05:30] <PalinBachman2012> escott: to run skype, i would use that second line
[05:30] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, I'm getting a bunch of hubs
[05:30] <PalinBachman2012> ?
[05:30] <soadkombucha> And then a Chicony Electronics
[05:30] <soadkombucha> Which is my card reader
[05:30] <Phibs> but i Only have a /, no separate boot
[05:30] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: run: sudo grub-install /dev/sda; sudo update-grub
[05:30] <escott> PalinBachman2012, yes, but the first line might be useful as well
[05:30] <ActionParsnip> soadkombucha: the hubs aren't of use, you only need that ID
[05:31] <root323> Anyone know where the xstartup file is?
[05:31] <ActionParsnip> root323: running irc clients as root is really not a good idea
[05:31] <root323> To edit what window manager starts when X starts
[05:31] <root323> ActionParsnip: I know
[05:31] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: thanks sir, seemed to have fixed it. Wonder why the upgrade processes borked it ;0
[05:31] <root323> It's temporary
[05:31] <ActionParsnip> root323: good, so long as you know
[05:31] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, The only ID showing up
[05:31] <root323> :
[05:31] <root323> :)
[05:31] <PalinBachman2012> escott: now even my logitech cam is upside down!
[05:31] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, Is a USB card reader
[05:31] <soadkombucha> Not a camera
[05:32] <pw-toxic> hi how do i connect to a ftp server with the new unity desktop?
[05:32] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: grub.cfg didnt seem to change so I dunno
[05:32] <pw-toxic> or a windows share flder
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> root323: add a startup item to run the WM is one way
[05:32] <pw-toxic> the thing i formely found under places "connect to"
[05:32] <root323> isn't there like an xstartup file somewhere?
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: it won't. nothing changed there but the grub is installed to the drive properly now
[05:32] <escott> PalinBachman2012, haha
[05:32] <soadkombucha> ActionParsnip, so again... Not useful
[05:33] <root323> I install lxde and I need to change it from KDE to LXDE
[05:33] <root323> for xstartup
[05:33] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: kk weird, it was defn installed as it booted me to the grub> menu but thx
[05:33] <ActionParsnip> root323: gconf-editor
[05:33] <ActionParsnip> root323: desktop > gnome > session
[05:33] <escott> Phibs, it will put you to the prompt if it cant find the /boot partition
[05:34] <root323> alright
[05:34] <root323> ill try that, thanks
[05:34] <dlbike76> escott: I can't find activity manager.  Where is it located?
[05:34] <ActionParsnip> root323: np
[05:34] <dave> Hello
[05:34] <saalaa__> tje2: iostat is the big winner imo
[05:34] <escott> dlbike76, you may have to install it but its gnome-activity-journal
[05:34] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7
[05:34] <Phibs> escott: I don't have one ;0
[05:34] <dave> Hello
[05:34] <saalaa__> for overall system performance tracking of course
[05:34] <DeI2anGeD> Ah, it's working now, it picked a random ass partition to look for, turns out
[05:34] <Phibs> ActionParsnip: nod all I did was dist-upgrade to natty from mav
[05:35] <escott> Phibs, or wherever the /boot is located
[05:35] <Guest40948> Is there anyone here?
[05:35] <DeI2anGeD> so, hooray! thanks for the helps
[05:35] <Phibs> escott: okie, guess I should get into practice of doing that 'just in case' before reboots ;0
[05:35] <ActionParsnip> Phibs: i've heard good and bad things of upgrading.  So now I'm back to scouring through tons of useless windows-related info about this issue to try and find something about Linux
[05:36] <Guest40948> Hello
[05:36] <DeI2anGeD> Now to get minecraft running and this machine will be complete. lol
[05:36] <saalaa__> what I'm still lacking though is a way to find out what program is responsible for my load
[05:36] <escott> !hi | Guest40948
[05:36] <Guest40948> Hi
[05:36] <escott> !ask | Guest40948
[05:37] <Guest40948> Do you know anything about web hacking?
[05:37] <soadkombucha> DeI2anGeD, shouldn't be too hard.
[05:37] <Phibs> escott: nod
[05:37] <escott> !illegal | Guest40948
[05:37] <soadkombucha> DeI2anGeD, my big worry is getting my mic working...
[05:37] <DeI2anGeD> yeah, I'm expecting that part to be easy
[05:37] <soadkombucha> Once that's done minecraft will be setup...
[05:38] <Phibs> escott: appreciate the help sir
[05:38] <Phibs> I don't mess with grub often thankfully ;)
[05:39] <boxbeatsy> hi, i messed with my java packages, and now my system is sort of screwy.  whenever i try to install or uninstall any package with pat-get i get the following dependency errors https://gist.github.com/6845cdb6116391b180ff.  does anyone know how i can just reset my entire java libs?
[05:39] <jon8> I wnat to go back to windows 7.. and when i boot off my disc, it brings up a list of linux kernels to select to boot.. and doesnt boot off of my disk.
[05:39] <jon8> yes, boot order is cdrom first
[05:39] <werkinsheir> My CPU is pulling 75% on my octacore i7 with a fresh install of ubuntu 10.10 x64 and the system monitor shows no particular program doing it
[05:40] <rage> If I've copied a parition using dd if=/dev/sdh3 of=/media/backup.img . What is the best way to restore it to another drive with a different partition layout that has enough unallocated space?
[05:40] <werkinsheir> and this fresh install of 2 hours ago takes 4 minutes to boot when it used to be about 50-60 seconds
[05:40] <jamiewan> werkinsheir, try top or htop in a terminal
[05:40] <jamiewan> look at it there
[05:41] <PalinBachman2012> escott: that made me crash
[05:41] <escott> jon8, windows should appear in the menu if os-prober found it run grub-mkconfig, then check /boot/grub/grub.cfg and see if there is a windows item
[05:41] <DeI2anGeD> I'm not sure if I like the launcher... I think I might?
[05:41] <escott> PalinBachman2012, the LD_PRELOAD... bummer it is a little hacky but i'm surprised it oops on you
[05:41] <werkinsheir> if I can even get there
[05:41] <werkinsheir> this is the only program with focus
[05:42] <werkinsheir> okay opened htop. CPU 1&2 maxed with a couple at 50%
[05:42] <werkinsheir> but not a single damn program shows more than 5% cpu utilization
[05:42] <escott> rage, i think the best way would be to create a partition of the correct side, then dd it back, and then resize the partition. otherwise you might have a fs superblock that doesn't know about the space the partition table allows
[05:43] <SunshineFolk> heyyy
[05:43] <rage> escott: Would du backup.img tell me the correct size?
[05:43] <SunshineFolk> can someone help me with a ubuntu 11.04 problem maybe?
[05:43] <jamiewan> werkinsheir, how many roughly
[05:43] <SunshineFolk> simple for one of you but I am completely lost
[05:43] <soadkombucha> OK is there anyone in here who can help me with a webcam w/ integrated microphone issue?
[05:44] <darkenvy> 10 perhaps
[05:44] <escott> rage, maybe. you might also be able to mount it as a loopback and figure out its size that way
[05:44] <darkenvy> bt wekinsheir
[05:44] <darkenvy> *initiated by user werkinsheir
[05:44] <escott> rage, file may even be smart enough to tell you
[05:44] <jamiewan> darkenvy, start killing a few off
[05:44] <tasslehoff> can I control which paths dash looks for applications in?
[05:44] <darkenvy> its all nothing
[05:44] <rage> escott: Good point, I already ahve it mounted -o loop. I'll take a look, ty
[05:44] <darkenvy> "htop "system manager" xchat" "terminal"
[05:44] <SunshineFolk> My screens are way out of my monitor area and I dont know how to delete my NVIDIA settings without seeing my screens
[05:44] <jamiewan> ?load???
[05:44] <darkenvy> all things im using to diagnose
[05:45] <soadkombucha> OK if it helps in Skype, my webcam shows up as "USB2.0 UVC WebCam"
[05:45] <darkenvy> omg I did nothing and it died down to bare nothing. 5% utilizationn O_o
[05:45] <escott> rage, someone mentioned a tool called clonezilla earlier today you may want tot try it in the future
[05:45] <soadkombucha> Could maybe switching from pulse to ALSA help?
[05:46] <darkenvy> AND on boot, I saw this wierd splash screen on 2 of my monitors "NVIDIA beta"
[05:46] <rage> escott: Unfortunately I didnt make the original copy
[05:46] <escott> rage, i know just for future needs
[05:46] <darkenvy> which I never saw before
[05:46] <jamiewan> darkenvy, what is cpu usage now
[05:46] <rage> escott: Thanks :-)
[05:46] <PalinBachman2012> escott: it ws probably just buggy skype, either way, they are both working without the preload thingee
[05:46] <julian_c> soadkombucha: That it's a UVC camera is a plus (compatibility). Does the mic for the camera show up in the audio settings?
[05:46] <darkenvy> right now, back to 90%
[05:46] <darkenvy> it jumped abck up
[05:47] <julian_c> (or, would that be the one built-in mic for the laptop?)
[05:47] <soadkombucha> julian_c, the built in one shows up, but does not accept input
[05:47] <escott> soadkombucha, pulse should be fine provided you have selected the correct audio input in pulse. you may have multiple mics (built in+webcam)
[05:47] <soadkombucha> I only have one mic
[05:47] <jamiewan> darkenvy, did you do all the updates after the install
[05:47] <MagePsycho> Greetings guys
[05:47] <soadkombucha> It's webcam/mic integrated together
[05:47] <SunshineFolk> how do you bring up terminal in "log-on" screen? is that possible??
[05:47] <PalinBachman2012> u sure its not muted
[05:47] <darkenvy> would this solve this?
[05:47] <soadkombucha> PalinBachman2012, I checked.
[05:47] <darkenvy> Im sure I did but....
[05:47] <MagePsycho> i have some weird issue
[05:47] <PalinBachman2012> ok, lol
[05:47] <escott> SunshineFolk, ctrl-alt-f1
[05:47] <jamiewan> possibly long shot but possibly
[05:48] <SunshineFolk> thank you scott...
[05:48] <darkenvy> apparently I did not
[05:48] <boxbeatsy> hi, i messed with my java packages, and now my system is sort of screwy.  whenever i try to install or uninstall any package with pat-get i get the following dependency errors https://gist.github.com/6845cdb6116391b180ff.  does anyone know how i can just reset my entire java libs?
[05:48] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, what;s a long shot?
[05:48] <someh4x0r> is clonezilla better than partimage?
[05:48] <jamiewan> darkenvy, do them and reboot
[05:48] <darkenvy> 329 updates of 300mb ><
[05:48] <SunshineFolk> can you help me further possibly? it should only take a minute
[05:48] <MagePsycho> when i login / logout in ubuntu, i see some weird graphics in transition time which last for ~1 secs
[05:48] <darkenvy> okay ill be back. remember me and my issue momentarily :P
[05:48] <jamiewan> k
[05:48] <SunshineFolk> escott: Please :)
[05:48] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, lemme go make sure it's still showing up in sound...
[05:49] <escott> SunshineFolk, just ask
[05:49] <SunshineFolk> ok thanks
[05:49] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, a long shot is a "small chance" of something working
[05:49] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, under sound, it shows up as  internal audio 1 output/1 input analog stereo duplex
[05:49] <soadkombucha> the input shows up
[05:49] <soadkombucha> Unmuted
[05:49] <soadkombucha> With options
[05:50] <FloodBot1> soadkombucha: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:50] <soadkombucha> But is not accepting input
[05:50] <SunshineFolk> I was messing with NVIDIA settings, and somehow my screens are way off of my monitor area, WAY off.. I cannot access NVIDIA settings now to reset them
[05:50] <SunshineFolk> any ideas??
[05:50] <PalinBachman2012> SunshineFolk: try using alt-tab?
[05:50] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, i dont recall your problem can u repeat
[05:50] <SunshineFolk> one sec :)
[05:50] <jamiewan> webcam mic ???
[05:51] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, yeah.
[05:51] <PalinBachman2012> eh that probably wont work
[05:51] <jamiewan> what type of cam
[05:51] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, Recognized, but black screening on video and not accepting mic input
[05:51] <darkenvy> downloaded.... installing...
[05:51] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, USB2.0 UVC WEBCAM/MIC integrated
[05:51] <bsmith0931> lucid hangs on package install specifically on unpacking replacement blah, happens very rarely with random packages any ideas?
[05:51] <escott> SunshineFolk, can you see any part of the nvidia settings
[05:51] <soadkombucha> 04f2:b128 is the ID on it from lsusb... Can't remember the name of the company.
[05:52] <darkenvy> is there a possiblity im being hacked right now?
[05:52] <jamiewan> no not at all
[05:52] <SunshineFolk> escott: negative... Only the far left side of my screen.. from there, once I bring up terminal to try and delete settings I cannot see it at all
[05:53] <someh4x0r> SunshineFolk: did you try simply rebooting
[05:53] <SunshineFolk> well the far left of what would be the far left if it was regularly showing...So basically its showing on my far right side all messed up
[05:53] <escott> SunshineFolk, can you pan the screen (more the mouse to the edge and keep moving it like you want to move it off the screen)
[05:53] <jamiewan> darkenvy, i'd be waiting to ask ActionParsnip when he returns, he's da man but i can assure you you're not being hacked
[05:53] <SunshineFolk> yes... I did a root settings apply.. So it is stuck!
[05:53] <SunshineFolk> what is cmd to delete settings from "log-in" screen? would that work like that... cause its perfect on that screen
[05:54] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, any ideas?
[05:54] <olsen1> hi all
[05:54] <olsen1> error connection activation failed device not managed by networkmanager
[05:54] <someh4x0r> I think removing xorg.conf from single user should work. I think ubuntu no longer needs it and it is only for nvidia config. can anyone confirm this? i don't want to mess up SunshineFolk's system
[05:54] <olsen1> can someone help me out pls?
[05:55] <SunshineFolk> screen wont pan at all.. and when I "alt-ctrl-arrow" it shows nice working screens, but when I try to bring terminal up in one, it reverts me back to the messed up one
[05:55] <escott> soadkombucha, you might be able to fix your builtin mic with hda_analyzer (assuming you have intel hda) but you need to pick the other mic to use the camera mic. if pulse won't let you do that, use alsa
[05:56] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, checked alsa mixer settings?
[05:56] <escott> SunshineFolk, i would see if there are modes in your /etc/xorg/xorg.conf and prehaps remove them
[05:56] <SunshineFolk> thanks someh4x0r...That may work I believe.
[05:56] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, it's pulse
[05:56] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, I checked the sound settings yes.
[05:56] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, are you using skype
[05:56] <SunshineFolk> so rm~ /etcxorg/xorg.conf?
[05:56] <soadkombucha> I checked it in Skype. And Cheese.
[05:57] <soadkombucha> Nothing.
[05:57] <escott> SunshineFolk, better to move it to xorg.conf.back
[05:57] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, tried a mic on its own?
[05:57] <SunshineFolk> what would be the cmd for that? sorry
[05:57] <soadkombucha> jamiewan, the mic that I have that plugs into my mic jack won't work either
[05:58] <escott> SunshineFolk, sudo mv /etc/xorg/xorg.conf /etc/xorg/xorg.conf.backup
[05:58] <darkenvy> my computer is freezing until I move my mouse or a window
[05:58] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, input connector set to mic
[05:58] <soadkombucha> IT's not showing up
[05:58] <jamiewan> input tab
[05:58] <jamiewan> ok
[05:58] <soadkombucha> That doesn't show up as input
[05:58] <soadkombucha> My integrated mic does
[05:59] <darkenvy> could this be an nvidia driver thing? I mean I NEVER saw that booting splash screen of "NVIDIA Beta" before
[05:59] <SunshineFolk> escott: I will be back after I try this.. goin to other room
[05:59] <SunshineFolk> thanks!
[06:00] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, try record something in sound recorder
[06:00] <goola> list
[06:00] <soadkombucha> Nothing jamiewan. No levels.
[06:01] <escott> darkenvy, sounds like you may be under heavy disk io load. have you checked free? maybe you are overswapping
[06:02] <jamiewan> ok, sound prefs, hardware tab, profile set to analog stereo duplex?
[06:02] <jamiewan> soadkombucha,  ok, sound prefs, hardware tab, profile set to analog stereo duplex?
[06:02] <SunshineFolk> escott: wow log-in terminal is crazy! how do I login? haha username, password?
[06:03] <SunshineFolk> I know my password, but what is username?  Just my actual username that I choose as id?
[06:04] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, also just double check the check boxes in mixer again, they are sometimes confusing as to if they are muted or not
[06:04] <jamiewan> ie the capture switches
[06:04] <soadkombucha> I checked them... They're very simple mute boxes
[06:04] <escott> SunshineFolk, yes... i was having a hard time figuring out what exactly your question was. the username you picked which is the name of your home folder
[06:04] <ray24> I'm trying to install a package from software manager and I get the message "waiting for other managers to quit" when nothing else is running.. Why is that?
[06:05] <soadkombucha> They're actually checks... That are unchecked.
[06:05] <jamiewan> yep
[06:05] <SunshineFolk> ok thanks.. yes that was my question.. So all lowercase? sorry, Im new to the log in terminal
[06:05] <soadkombucha> SunshineFolk, Linux is case-sensitive
[06:06] <SunshineFolk> ok brb
[06:06] <escott> SunshineFolk, traditionally usernames are all lowercase, but if you made yours uppercase you would have to put it in that way
[06:06] <soadkombucha> escott, Ubuntu doesn't allow uppercase usernames?
[06:07] <escott> soadkombucha, i don't know, i've never tried
[06:07] <SunshineFolk> I will try both, cause one only let me use all lowercase, and then another on setup let me use both.
[06:07] <soadkombucha> I don't believe it does.
[06:07] <manlymatt83> hmmmm, ever since I upgraded to 11.04, my video is choppy inside firefox.,.. like youtube video.  Lots of white blocks appear all over the screen while a video is playing.
[06:07] <manlymatt83> Any ideas?
[06:07] <escott> manlymatt83, thats a common compiz related issue
[06:07] <jamiewan> soadkombucha, i dunno mate, hang about someone will be successful if you keep asking,
[06:08] <soadkombucha> Of course one thing isn't working like always.
[06:08] <soadkombucha> At least this time it's not my entire ACPI layer,.
[06:08] <te> I think usernames are lower case.
[06:08] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: can you give the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep gnash
[06:08] <escott> soadkombucha, so the pulseaudio control doesn't let you select the mic for the camera under the input section
[06:09] <tje2> ActionParsnip,   It might be a little easier to replace all of those dpkg|grep commands with:   dpkg -l | egrep -i 'swf|flash|gnash'
[06:09] <jamiewan> soadkombucha,  Ask ActionParsnip mate, he's the man about channel :-)
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> tje2: thanks
[06:10] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: use a pastebin to host the text
[06:10] <SunshineFolk> yes it was lowercase.... but no file directory found
[06:10] <tje2> ActionParsnip,   no problemo.   ;)
[06:10] <SunshineFolk> could I simply remove it? Or would that be worse problems?
[06:10] <escott> SunshineFolk, sorry its /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if it exists)
[06:11] <SunshineFolk> thanks...brb
[06:11] <escott> SunshineFolk, i wouldn't remove it, just rename it
[06:11] <manlymatt83> http://pastebin.com/U6UKNVq4
[06:11] <manlymatt83> I have two vidoe cards in my machine: integrated and discrete.  The discrete one is better, but I locked onto the integrated one for better battery life... and the videos worked fine in 10.10
[06:12] <escott> ActionParsnip, have you been using gnash? does it work well enough for most stuff?
[06:12] <MagePsycho> when i login / logout in ubuntu, i see some weird graphics in transition time which last for ~1 secs
[06:12] <MagePsycho> any idea?
[06:13] <jamiewan> MagePsycho, look the other way lol
[06:13] <manlymatt83> Sorry ActionParsnip, I didn't tag your name.  ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/U6UKNVq4
[06:13] <MagePsycho> what can be the issue
[06:13] <MagePsycho> when i login / logout in ubuntu, i see some weird graphics in transition time which last for ~1 secs
[06:14] <SunshineFolk> ok let me get this right.... sudo mv /etc/x11/xorg.conf   ....if correct, no file exists
[06:14] <jamiewan> MagePsycho, nothing i wwould say, my machines usually do something like that also
[06:14] <jamiewan> no performance issues
[06:14] <escott> SunshineFolk, yeah i'm not sure where the nvidia settings app is putting that mode preference. maybe it is in /root/
[06:15] <jamiewan> MagePsycho, latent power or current on and off, you are not alone i can assure you
[06:15] <SunshineFolk> I will check
[06:15] <escott> MagePsycho, its just bringing up and down the graphics card and you are probably seeing whatever random junk was in the memory buffers. just don't logout :)
[06:17] <darkenvy> still waiting for updates to finish installing
[06:17] <Overlord-sirus> anyone here ever coded their own OS?
[06:17] <SunshineFolk> escott: still, nothing... I dont recall seeing root earlier before it when I was saving X file or whatever, just / then idk
[06:18] <escott> SunshineFolk, i'm afraid i don't use nvidia so I don't know where it keeps these preferences... maybe someone else knows sorry
[06:18] <adam61> hey, i'm having a problem installing ubuntu 11.04, at one point it gives a warning that "/dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should. Perhaps it was corrupted -- possible by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table. Is thi
[06:18] <maj-> whats the best dvd ripper to download?
[06:18] <adam61> s a GPT partition table?"  when i click either option, yes or no, it doesn't do anything. i'm installing from a usb stick. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[06:19] <dzup> maj  dd:
[06:19] <dzup> ?
[06:19] <SunshineFolk> but if I remove, couldnt I simply go back in and create settings again, which would start me back over?
[06:19] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: let me see
[06:19] <SunshineFolk> in good condition?
[06:19] <escott> adam61, you could use gdisk to create a protective msdos partition
[06:19] <maj-> dzup: huh
[06:19] <dzup> maj-: man dd
[06:19] <escott> SunshineFolk, remove what? the xorg.conf, I though you said it didn't exist
[06:19] <te> dzup: That he already has. But I guess you are trying to answer an unanswerable question.
[06:20] <manlymatt83> ActionParsnip: http://demonic.cc/?p=60
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer; sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
[06:20] <manlymatt83> ActionParsnip: That looks like exactly what I'm having
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install flashplugin64-installer
[06:20] <dzup> tei guess forme that works
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: try 64bit flash, its a bit cleaner on 64bit systems
[06:21] <manlymatt83> is ppa:sevenmachines a safe repo?
[06:21] <SunshineFolk> I know it does exist, its just where its at is the question... would simply rm~ xorg.conf  ... remove it?
[06:22] <te> SunshineFolk: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:22] <escott> SunshineFolk, i wouldn't recommend removing it. it might have other stuff necessary to make your display work in any capacity
[06:22] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: I use it, it's great
[06:22] <escott> SunshineFolk, just move it to xorg.conf.backup, and restart gdm. if everything works then you can safely remove it
[06:22] <ActionParsnip> SunshineFolk: use: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_old
[06:22] <manlymatt83> thanks!
[06:23] <escott> SunshineFolk, if it all blows up in your face you can more selectively edit it to remove the offending sections
[06:23] <te> escott: SunshineFolk Nothing is gonig to blow up, just rm it.
[06:24] <manlymatt83> ActionParsnip: worked, thaqnks!
[06:24] <MagePsycho> what is hardware acceleration. ? is that the cause of blurry fonts?
[06:24] <SunshineFolk> haha.. I will try actionParsnips first.. Thanks to all
[06:25] <escott> MagePsycho, open the appearance application and adjust your fonts
[06:25] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: np :)
[06:26] <maj-> why doesn't ubuntu recognize a blank dvd when inserted but does a cd
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: there is a ppa with 64bit java too. Usually the OS uses 32bit plugins via nspluginwrapper
[06:26] <manlymatt83> Also, is it the end of the world if I remove zeitgeist?
[06:26] <manlymatt83> ActionParsnip: OK, I will look at that!
[06:26] <manlymatt83> The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required: nspluginwrapper
[06:27] <manlymatt83> yeah, looks like it :)
[06:27] <manlymatt83> it's being annoying and mistaking folders for downloads, etc.
[06:27] <soadkombucha> OK I'll come back to my problem tomorrow... For now I'm gonna go to bed before it drives me nuts
[06:27] <manlymatt83> (zeigeist)
[06:27] <mr-L> :o
[06:29] <escott> manlymatt83, zeitgeist is pretty deeply hooked into unity
[06:29] <draven> i just ran fdisk and wrote the changes to disk but when adding the new partition with type FD to a raid i get a message that the partition appears to have a ext2fs on it. may i safely ignore this message or how do i resolve it?
[06:30] <SunshineFolk> Ok, so no file for mv OR rm... I am so confused..
[06:30] <escott> draven, are you trying to convert from ext# to mdadm with ext#
[06:30] <sraw> Hi I upgraded to Natty and it looks like I lost hardware acceleration for the UI... like for example I my terminal windows can no longer have true transparently, menus don't fade in and out and so on. Also I don't have an "Effects" tab in System > Preferences anymore. Could anyone help out?
[06:31] <SunshineFolk> sraw: upgrade driver?
[06:31] <draven> escott, i set the partition type fd (raid auto) i'm trying create a new raid but was told that the partition i just created already has a filesystem on it of type ext2fs
[06:31] <escott> SunshineFolk, the xorg.conf was a guess I'm not sure that is where nvidia puts its configuration info
[06:32] <SunshineFolk> I will google and get back with you
[06:32] <sraw> SunshineFolk: everything has been fully updated
[06:32] <darkenvy> YES updates finished
[06:33] <darkenvy> im going to go see if this fixes the 95% CPU utilizatyion thing
[06:33] <darkenvy> brb
[06:33] <manlymatt83> escott: okay, thanks
[06:33] <manlymatt83> Looks like if I put my Downloads dir back (I had removed it because I don't like using the default locations) it isn't freaking out anymore
[06:33] <maj-> why doesn't ubuntu recognize a blank dvd when inserted but does a cd
[06:34] <escott> manlymatt83, its best to symlink those folders to where you want them rather than delete them
[06:34] <sraw> is there like a setting somewhere that makes Ubuntu revert to not using hardware acceleration for its UI?
[06:34] <escott> otherwise they just keep coming back
[06:34] <escott> draven, it might be because you first created it as ext2... i really have no idea. i would mount the partition and see if there is anything you need in it first
[06:35] <draven> escott, there's nothing in there i need, just wanted to be certain that it wouldn't cause an issue later.
[06:35] <werkinsheir> jamiewan
[06:35] <werkinsheir> you there?
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> sraw: press ALT+F2 and run:  metacity --replace    and you will use 2D desktop
[06:36] <escott> draven, if you don't need the partition feel free to blow it away
[06:36] <darkenvy> #ubuntu you rock!
[06:36] <sraw> ActionParsnip: by 2D desktop what do you mean exactly?
[06:36] <darkenvy> jamiewan thank you
[06:36] <SunshineFolk> Ive been using x11 instead of X11....hmmm. bingo?
[06:36] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: do you have unity desktop working?
[06:37] <darkenvy> ubuntu clearly has way more support than windoze and especially Macintosh with its "applecrap plan"
[06:37] <ActionParsnip> sraw: no 3D effects
[06:37] <darkenvy> what is your guy's inititive? why help out others?
[06:37] <html_inprogress> how do i install a gui to ubuntu sever?
[06:37] <darkenvy> what do you guys get out of this service?
[06:37] <sraw> PalinBachman2012: No. First time I started Natty, it started with Unity, everything seemed fine, but on reboot it disappeared. Then after updates it reappeared again, and now its disappeared.
[06:37] <ActionParsnip> darkenvy: sadly hardware manufacturers only support windows and mac in a lot of cases, the community has provided a lot of great drivers to compensate :)
[06:38] <keesto> darkenvy: why not?
[06:38] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: if you had unity, then you had hw accelleration
[06:38] <Daniel0108> darkenvy: because we want to help people and it's fun :)
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> darkenvy: strengthening the community
[06:38] <dzup> darkwe planning to take bill gates in arrest mode
[06:38] <darkenvy> yes but have you ever had to call apple? they denide me support ebcause I didnt pay for support in their package
[06:38] <sraw> PanelBachman2012: Yeah but what happened to it :(
[06:38] <html_inprogress> ActionParsnip,  right  ALOTT :)
[06:38] <darkenvy> I LOVE IT!
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> darkenvy: people help people, who then help other people
[06:38] <darkenvy> what a great future we are building
[06:38] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: if you are not choosing classic ubuntu from GDM, then it is prob a driver issue
[06:38] <draven> darkenvy, if you'd like you can give me money :D
[06:38] <jamiewan> lol
[06:38] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: reinstall your vid drivers... im assuming you have nvidia
[06:39] <darkenvy> nah, I help out others in #bukkit on the esper network for minecraft
[06:39] <darkenvy> I give back... just in a different community
[06:39] <dzup> darkenvy: i have [aypal :)
[06:39] <darkenvy> lol
[06:39] <sraw> PalinBachman2012: I'm inclined to agree with you, but glxgears and all that runs great. Unfortunately I have ATI, and am using the open-source drivers.
[06:39] <Sego> How do I remove Citrix Receiver out of Lucid Lynx?
[06:39] <darkenvy> but #ubuntu seems much hardeer for not much in return.
[06:39] <darkenvy> thanks again. im out
[06:39] <SunshineFolk> escott: after fixing my STUPID error, would it say anything after hitting enter? or just go back to $ (since last time saying no file)
[06:40] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: you might want to google for ubuntu + your card model and see if the closed drivers are working for that card
[06:40] <PalinBachman2012> ati has been getting better, i guess
[06:40] <draven> escott, please look at my terminal capture, and let me know if i'm okay saying yes. there's nothing on the partition i care about just seems odd that it shows as ext2fs
[06:40] <draven> escott, link here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/606391/
[06:40] <escott> SunshineFolk, sounds like it worked restart gdm service gdm restart
[06:41] <SunshineFolk> brb :) please work haha
[06:41] <sraw> PanelBachman2012: They aren't :( ... the card's a couple of years old. But I had Lynx working just fine with the same setup... so it's confusing.
[06:42] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: then its prob a bug and experienced by others, maybe on launchpad
[06:42] <escott> draven, i can't really answer that... you are creating md0 from sdb1,c1,d1,e1 and it is telling you that b1 has an ext2 on it. it could be an old ext2 that you don't need in which case say yes. but only you can confirm that
[06:42] <PalinBachman2012> or whatever ubuntu bugs is called
[06:42] <SunshineFolk> escott: sorry for the n00b questions, but cmd gdm restart? or is there more to it, cause it didnt work, or can I simply power off power on?
[06:42] <manlymatt83> escott: you mean like Documents, Downloads, Pictures, etc.?
[06:43] <escott> SunshineFolk, sudo service gdm restart
[06:43] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: try this... install compiz settings, and see if unity is enabled
[06:43] <SunshineFolk> thank youuuu
[06:43] <escott> manlymatt83, yeah just symlink them to wherever you want to put the files and things will work
[06:43] <PalinBachman2012> if glx gears works, then unity should work
[06:43] <sraw> PalinBachman2012: I did, Unity is enabled
[06:43] <manlymatt83> escott: what is the Templates directory?
[06:44] <escott> manlymatt83, its for templates... i think like office templates maybe maybe symlink that one to /dev/null ;)
[06:44] <manlymatt83> and I already deleted them.  Is there a way to put them all back?  Or do I need to remove my account and re-create.
[06:44] <SunshineFolk> escot: thank you thank you thank you!!
[06:44] <PalinBachman2012> sraw: i never had ati, so IDK, im sorry
[06:44] <manlymatt83> ha ha :)
[06:44] <manlymatt83> is /dev/null web scale and fast?  If so, I will use it.
[06:44] <PalinBachman2012> nvidia FTW!
[06:44] <SunshineFolk> perfect! except my duals are gone.. now that is anothe trouble on its own hhaahha.
[06:44] <sraw> PalinBackman2012: yeah, my other computer has nvidia, no issues. I appreciate the help!
[06:45] <PalinBachman2012> :(
[06:45] <escott> manlymatt83, they will probably get recreated for you but the complete list is Desktop, Documents,  Downloads, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Ubuntu One, Videos
[06:45] <mikeyfbi> .
[06:46] <manlymatt83> escott: ok, thanks!
[06:46] <mikeyfbi> help!  just installed 11.04 and found it a little slow ... installed ccsm, and turned on desktop cube and rotate cube.  apparently i disable all the new menus, and can't access anythign anymore!
[06:46] <mikeyfbi> trying to run alt+f2 -> ccsm to revert it, but alt+f2 doesn't work
[06:46] <SunshineFolk> anyone know how to setup dual monitors with NVIDIA on unity3d? I messed with settings forever and finally got it by restarting for no reason really and they worked haha. then screens swapped and thats when hell broke loose
[06:46] <mikeyfbi> i need to somehow revert these changes!
[06:47] <escott> mikeyfbi, you could maybe nuke your ~/.config/compiz directory
[06:47] <SunshineFolk> you guys are amazing haha
[06:47] <datakid> is there an easy way to tell if a process is running in a chroot?
[06:47] <Sego> How do I remove Citrix Receiver out of Lucid Lynx?
[06:48] <mikeyfbi> escott, hmm i might get back to you on that.  somehow i got a file manager up and searched for 'ccsm'
[06:48] <mikeyfbi> so i'm in it now, just need to figure out how to revert those changes
[06:49] <manlymatt83> and is it normal that .gvfs always has ????? as permissions using an ls -al?
[06:51] <Jordan_U> datakid: What is the context?
[06:51] <Zelozelos> sometimes when im doin something n the screen freezes up, the computer isnt its still processing n all
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> manlymatt83: http://paste.ubuntu.com/606393/
[06:51] <MagePsycho> what is Nvidia driver
[06:51] <MagePsycho> will it improve the graphics appearance
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> MagePsycho: its the proprietary driver made by nvidia
[06:52] <Zelozelos> is there a keypress that will get me out of such a situation? like ctrl alt del
[06:52] <manlymatt83> matt@lappy:~$ ls -al .gvfs
[06:52] <manlymatt83> ls: cannot access .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected
[06:53] <datakid> Jordan_U, I've inherited a nightmare :|  postfix is installed, heartbeat is installed, /etc/init.d/postfix tells to look at heartbeat, restarting postfix doesn't work. Turns out there's a chroot in there as well - with it's own postfix conf directory
[06:53] <MagePsycho> guys .. i am helpless.. i am unable to fix my graphics issues in 11.04 .. will downgrading to 10.10 will improve?
[06:53] <escott> MagePsycho, you can't downgrade
[06:53] <datakid> plus postfix appears in /etc/rc.* but in rc.local there are a bunch of lines that start the chroot'd postfix, I'm just trying to unravel this beast
[06:53] <Guest74097> 什么意思
[06:54] <MagePsycho> then i need to format and re-install
[06:54] <unforgiven512> Is there a simple way to restore a folder I deleted with 'rm -rf /path/to/folder/' ?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> !undelete | unforgiven512
[06:54] <Jordan_U> !cn | Guest74097
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> unforgiven512: easiest way is to use your backups
[06:56] <Zelozelos> sometimes when im doin something n the screen freezes up, the computer isnt its still processing n all is there a keypress that will get me out of such a situation? like ctrl alt del
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> Zelozelos: try CTRL+ALT+F1
[06:56] <Jordan_U> !sysrq | Zelozelos
[06:56] <unforgiven512> Yeah it was just an accident, I did rm -rf /etc/apache2/sites-available/ on my VM
[06:56] <unforgiven512> Nothing of actual importance in there
[06:57] <uabn93> mikeyfbi: hey mikey, what if you try it with ctrl+alt+f1, then run "compiz --replace"
[06:57] <Zelozelos> ty unforgiven512 i couldnt remember the keys
[06:58] <Zelozelos> but hopefully ctrl alt f1 works
[06:59] <ActionParsnip> Zelozelos: you can also re-enable the old skool CTRL+ALT+BackSpace in keyboard settings
[07:01] <MagePsycho> will installing msttcorefonts help?

[07:35] <buhman> joljam: do you see the nm-applet icon in the top-right of the system tray
[07:36] <abe3k> @benitoa: I'll still have to install lm-sensors right ?
[07:36] <buhman> Sego: that's irrelevant as far as removing it goes
[07:36] <benitoa> abe3l: yep
[07:36] <Sego> buhman, never done that, how do I do it?
[07:36] <prakashg> printf("enter host ip\n");
[07:36] <prakashg> scanf("%s",ipadd);
[07:36] <prakashg> printf("enter share name\n");
[07:36] <prakashg> scanf("%s",share);

[07:36] <benitoa> give 2 sec i'm looking for a tutorial
[07:37] <buhman> Sego: open a terminal, su, and then aptitude search citrix
[07:37] <Sego> buhman, ok, bbs
[07:37] <buhman> wait, ubuntu's root password isn't set by default :P
[07:37] <benitoa> abe3k: here it is: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/jupiter-ubuntu-ppa-hardware-and-power.html
[07:37] <abe3k> @benitoa: Thanks !
[07:37] <buhman> Sego: aptitude isn't installed by default either, I forgot that as well
[07:38] <falafell> having some trouble installing 11.4 from usb or other disk... on usb bios fails to detect any usb-device as bootable once it's prepared as ubuntu installation. from other disk i get 'your installation cd-rom couldn't be mounted'
[07:38] <buhman> Sego: you'll need to type "sudo apt-get search citrix";  you'll be prompted for your password
[07:38] <jrs77> If I want to change a setting for all users on a computer. Do I need to use gconf-editor as sudo? This is on lucid btw
[07:38] <buhman> Sego: provided you're in sudoers, that will work
[07:38] <buhman> Sego: actually searching doesn't need root (it's late), but removing does
[07:40] <buhman> prakashg: that doesn't do anything by the way
[07:40] <zorguten> falafell go into bios and make sure usb is above hdd in the boot order
[07:40] <falafell> zorguten it is, but any usb device that has the ubuntu installation on it fails to detect
[07:40] <falafell> when i reformat the drive it becomes detectable again
[07:41] <Sego> buhman, I will install it
[07:41] <zorguten> how did you put ubuntu on the flash drive
[07:41] <falafell> with ubuntu start-up disk creator
[07:41] <buhman> Sego: install what?
[07:41] <falafell> on my other machine
[07:42] <solidus-nitrogen> hey all
[07:42] <buhman> zorguten: just use dd
[07:42] <Sego> buhman, 'apt-get search citrix"
[07:42] <zorguten> you could install ubuntu right to the usb drive using universal usb installer or unetbootin
[07:42] <abe3k> @benitoa:Did you try it yourself?, because I'm wondering if  there's actually per-CUP frequency scaling not only selecting type of performance for the machine
[07:42] <solidus-nitrogen> hey all
[07:42] <buhman> Sego: that doesn't actually *do* anything...
[07:42] <Sego> ok
[07:42] <solidus-nitrogen> i'm trying to compile some simple sdl code on a new install
[07:42] <solidus-nitrogen> and i'm getting a compilation erre
[07:42] <falafell> zorguten i tried that too, same result, detectable usb devices vanish from the boot menu as an option once ubuntu is on it... :S
[07:42] <buhman> Sego: that does exactly what it says, you're "searching" for a package containing the letters "citrix"
[07:42] <prakashg> i need status of that command for further programming
[07:43] <solidus-nitrogen> trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory
[07:43] <buhman> Sego: once you know the package name, you can "sudo apt-get remove [packagename]"
[07:43] <benitoa> ab3k: i have it installed right now. ubuntu is doing cpu scaling. And jupiter is per performance profiles
[07:43] <falafell> so i decided to put the setup on an old 10gig ide drive, and that works, but now i get this 'couldn't mount cd-rom' error
[07:43] <Sego> buhman, ok, I get it, I am not new at Ubuntu but I am new to this point.
[07:44] <zorguten> i noticed that ubuntu-alternate didnt work on my lenovo netbook but desktop worked a bit
[07:45] <abe3k_> @benitoa: have a look at this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cpu-frequency-scaling-applet-in-unity.html  I'll try both applets
[07:45] <Sego> buhman, I have this aptitude open...how do I search with it?
[07:46] <falafell> anyone have a clue how to handle this 'installation cd-rom couldn't be mounted' error?
[07:46] <benitoa> @abe3k: interesting... tell me what you think afterward.
[07:46] <zorguten> anyone familiar with the iwl3945 driver
[07:47] <prakashg> buhman: i need status of that command for further programming
[07:47] <buhman> prakashg: I'd learn how to program first :P
[07:48] <solidus-nitrogen> hey, anyone know how to get a dev environment for sdl set up on ubuntu?
[07:48] <solidus-nitrogen> my includes arent working in my make file
[07:48] <paul__> добрый день)
[07:48] <istrategy> hi
[07:49] <Drake|> falafell: what kindof cd rom do you use? consider installing from USB?
[07:49] <Sego> buhman, How do you search with aptitude?
[07:49] <vivid> falafell, what did you burn the cd with?
[07:50] <buhman> Sego: "aptitude search [regex]"
[07:50] <falafell> i used the 11.04-x64 alternate iso
[07:51] <falafell> put it on disk with ubuntu start-up disk creator
[07:51] <sbarcteam>  /windows-D/list
[07:51] <vivid> try using k3b, not sure what the start up disc creator does, but i know that brasero has issues with bootable discs
[07:52] <tiara> purwokerto
[07:52] <ray24> Anyone in here got their ati radeon graphics card to work on ubuntu?
[07:52] <falafell> vivid im not making a real cd, trying make an usb/ide installation disk
[07:54] <Sego> buhman, did the search and did not find anything with citrix!!! but it is in my application>internet
[07:54] <buhman> Sego: that second half is irrelevant
[07:55] <Sego> buhman, ok
[07:55] <Drake|> falafell:  shouldnt be any troubble installing from a usb. I always do it.. one problem can be of an unsuported usb device.. have seen it before.
[07:55] <gnuskool> how do i see hidden files and folders in unity nautilus?
[07:56] <falafell> drake, the devices work fine as bootable usb sticks, but when i put ubuntu on iit they vanish, no longer detected and visible in boot menu
[07:56] <falafell> drake, when i reformat the drive it is visible in the boot-menu again
[07:57] <zorguten> is it the type of drive that shows up as 2 devices in windows?
[07:57] <zorguten> like a Cruzer stick
[07:57] <Drake|> falafell: does it show up in fdisk list? (sudo fdisk -l)
[07:57] <falafell> yes
[07:57] <Drake|> and if you try to mount it manually?
[07:57] <falafell> the devices  work fine, they just vanish from the boot-menu where i can select boot device to start from
[07:57] <falafell> after bios
[07:57] <Drake|> aah
[07:57] <gnuskool> how do i see hidden files and folders in unity nautilus?
[07:57] <unforgiven512> su "$domain_owner" -c "ln -s /home/unforgiven512/logs/${DOMAIN}/awstats/awstats.${DOMAIN}.html  /home/unforgiven512/logs/${DOMAIN}/awstats/index.html" fails from a shell script running as root (Permission  denied.), but works fine from a live root shell. Any idea why?
[07:58] <crunchbang> zver
[07:58] <joljam> where will the google-talk icon appear once i install it in ubuntu
[07:58] <crunchbang> hi
[07:58] <crunchbang> have anybody
[08:00] <Drake|> falafell: I asume the usb is fat32 format
[08:01] <falafell> drake yea its fat
[08:01] <Drake|> falafell: you said you used an alternative iso?
[08:01] <gnuskool> how do i see hidden files and folders in unity nautilus?
[08:02] <kickb> Hi! I have problems with cron, it gives me errors in the log 'grandchild #X failed with exit status 127' (for more details see http://paste.ubuntu.com/606400/). Any tip on whats wrong?
[08:02] <Vanillux> anyone could help me setup a mailserver please ?
[08:03] <Drake|> falafell: alternativly you can try create the usb with UNetbootin
[08:03] <raju> Vanillux:  which
[08:03] <Vanillux> well i believe the favoured on ubuntu is postfix ?
[08:03] <Vanillux> how do i reply to a specific person with xchat ?
[08:04] <zorguten> right click on their name
[08:04] <raju> Vanillux:  just type his first three letters and press tab
[08:04] <Vanillux> raju, thanks
[08:04] <raju> Vanillux:  welcom !
[08:05] <Vanillux> raju, so which mailserver would you favor ?
[08:05] <gnuskool> why is it so hard to view hidden files in nautilus?
[08:05] <gnuskool> geez
[08:05] <raju> Vanillux:
[08:05] <falafell> drake, same result :S
[08:06] <Vanillux> raju, ?
[08:06] <falafell> thats when i decided to put it on old ide drive
[08:06] <Drake|> falafell: sec lemme do some research
[08:09] <zubin71> I just got a segmentation fault and a core dump; id like to load the file into gdb to have a look at it. however, i dont see a file named "core" in the current directory. is there an alternate location for the same?
[08:09] <ma2day> !info
[08:09] <ma2day> !help
[08:11] <Drake|> falafell: One answer could be if the usb partition isnt set to Active
[08:11] <falafell> drake, did that too... :/
[08:11] <ahriman> I might have figured out the current grub issue. If there is already a standard fix, please point me to it because it isn't on your forums apparently.
[08:11] <ann222> hello
[08:11] <barna> #join cention pastebin
[08:12] <Drake|> falafell: have you tried another usb device btw?
[08:12] <Flynsarmy> The open source nvidia 3d drivers have been pretty flawless for me. How are the open source 3d ati ones?
[08:12] <Drake|> falafell: even upgraded you bios. could be some support issues
[08:12] <falafell> yea, about 4... all same problem, im starting to think it's something with my bios, bug or something
[08:12] <ann222> hello
[08:13] <Drake|> falafell:  I asume that you pc dont have a cd rom that you can try instead.. but yes could be bios related. is there any settings on usbsupport disabled in your bios?
[08:14] <ahriman> Grub issue with Natty = aufs error. I noticed in the forums that most people who put /boot on a separate partition from / have the error, and in my config after a failed install the uuid for root= was the /boot not the / partition
[08:14] <falafell> drake, no cdrom available :), all usb settings are okay afaik, i'll see if there's a bios update, doubt it, pretty new board
[08:15] <OttifantSir> How do I replace unity-window-decorator? Or fix it "bleeding through" the title bar of the window behind when I go to fullscreen.
[08:15] <ahriman> falafell, I fixed similar issues by checking bios for USB boot option and then manually specifying. Dell BIOS also has an "OS Install" option which limits the RAM to 256MB temporarily.
[08:16] <falafell> no update :( first and only release is from 15-10-2010
[08:16] <zubin71> aah figured it out, no!
[08:16] <zubin71> np*
[08:17] <falafell> ahriman, it works fine with windows usb sticks and other boot sticks, memtest etc, but when i make it ubuntu installer ,it just vanishes from boot selection
[08:17] <ahriman> falafell, have you tried the unetbootin USB disk installer? That's how I got mine to work. It doesn't use grub on the usb drive and it has install separate from test w/o install as boot options
[08:18] <sebsebseb> Anyone using the Gnome 3 ppa?
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: i added it for a laugh
[08:18] <root__> :|
[08:18] <Jordan_U> falafell: How are you creating the USB?
[08:18] <ahriman> Whoever though releasing Natty without outstanding bugs in grub was a good idea.... i disagree :(
[08:18] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: hmm that's strange, it said you joined, after I had sent that
[08:19] <sebsebseb> and you reply
[08:19] <falafell> ahriman, i tried it before, same result
[08:19] <ahriman> s/though/sthought
[08:19] <falafell> jordan, mainly tried making using ubuntu start-up disk creator, but i tried unetbootin too
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: maybe andchat still processes messages when entering
[08:19] <OttifantSir> How do I replace unity-window-decorator? Or fix it "bleeding through" the title bar of the window behind when I go to fullscreen?
[08:19] <ahriman> falafell, can you describe "vanishes from boot selection" more?
[08:20] <Drake|> falafell: I'm starting to run out of ideas :p
[08:20] <Jordan_U> falafell: Is it currently setup?
[08:20] <falafell> you know, when you hit F8 or F10 to enter the boot selection during BIOS
[08:20] <ahriman> I've got a USB stick made from Natty and unetbootin right here so we could compare apples to apples
[08:20] <falafell> gives a list of all devices
[08:20] <Flynsarmy> The open source nvidia 3d drivers have been pretty flawless for me. How are the open source 3d ati ones?
[08:20] <hosangadi_> Hey guys, gotta bit of an error in ubuntu 11.04
[08:20] <ActionParsnip> ahriman: you can use grub legacy or lilo if you want
[08:20] <hosangadi_> when i install kdenlive 0.8, and then try installing openshot, it gives a dependency error
[08:20] <falafell> thats where it vanishes when ubuntu is on it.., but it still works as storage device once the machine is booted into windows
[08:21] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: right well,  I tried with the Beta 2. but installed wrongly.  so basically had Gnome 2, but with the Gnome 3 stuff such as their new background chagning program and the log in screen.  Right, but now much more recently I have a rather clean install of the final.  Apparently the Gnome 3  ppa can be unstable and such though.   and I can try the Gnome 3 final probably from the Fedora 15 release canddiate CD anyway.
[08:21] <Jordan_U> ahriman: What bug are you reffering to?
[08:21] <OttifantSir> How do I replace unity-window-decorator? Or fix it "bleeding through" the title bar of the window behind when I go to fullscreen?
[08:22] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: what do you mean bleeding through?
[08:22] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: and I know the ppa isn't quite the full expereince, and then Unity won't load up as well,  so well I may just try it later on, because something tells me for now, I would want to use Unity really if using Ubuntu,  if another distro though yep Gnome Shell :).  did the ppa work ok for you?
[08:22] <hosangadi_> I need help with my problem, installing kdenlive on ubuntu 11.04 gives an error when I try to install openshot
[08:22] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: i found a ppa with some theme or settings. Gonna play later
[08:22] <hosangadi_> The error is a dependency error
[08:22] <ahriman> ActionParsnip, I'd like to get this system to boot. I've been working on this for days. The silly 10_linux script doesn't find the kernel images so I can't use it. I've tried manually hacking it, and managed to get grub installed but the grub.cfg is completely botched due to UUID mismatches. I tried making one manually but there are tons of lines to edit. You're looking at a 1100+ line config file now!
[08:22] <Michael88_> Hello everyone :)
[08:22] <Jordan_U> falafell: Is it currently setup?
[08:23] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: What does it do anyway, just gives the  Gnome  3 log in screen, and Gnome Shell and some of the Gnome 3 tools like the new background changer program, I guess?
[08:23] <vaxinated> hey Michael88
[08:23] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: VLC fullscreen, I see the title bar of Opera, and no media is played on the title bar position. Happens with all windows, but most annoying with visual media
[08:23] <falafell> jordan, what do you mean?
[08:23] <ahriman> Jordan_U, the aufs error. I can get exact error with a few minutes of effort
[08:23] <sbarcteam> I have a strange behaviour on a machine: when connecting after "a while" - it takes ages to login, or edit a file.
[08:23] <hosangadi_> I need help with my problem, installing kdenlive on ubuntu 11.04 gives an error when I try to install openshot
[08:23] <hosangadi_> I need help with my problem, installing kdenlive on ubuntu 11.04 gives an error when I try to install openshot
[08:23] <sbarcteam> AFter having it done, repeating works quickly.
[08:23] <Jordan_U> ahriman: aufs is not a part of grub. Do you have a link to the bug report?
[08:23] <ahriman> Jordan_U, it appears that when /boot and / are on different physical partitions the UUID and kernel scripts fail
[08:23] <sbarcteam> As if some kind of resolving is messed up, and when cached - works ok.
[08:23] <ActionParsnip> ahriman: tried booting livecd and reinstating grub2 from there
[08:24] <sbarcteam> I checked /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf
[08:24] <szal> hosangadi_: (1) don't repeat yourself, (2) define "an error"
[08:24] <sbarcteam> both look ok.
[08:24] <sbarcteam> what else shall I check ?
[08:24] <Hulds> hey all where do the window 7 winshare folders mount on so i can set up the unix program to access the same file?
[08:24] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Use Compiz Manager and look at Window Decoration.  THere is opacity mentioned.
[08:25] <ahriman> ActionParsnip, I managed to get grub2 installed, but without a configuration file :P the 10_linux doesn't find the kernel images. If you guys have figured out how to chroot the environment from a livecd to actually find the kernel images and correctly configure the UUID please let me know.
[08:25] <cache_surplus> whats the best way to stop a service from starting at boot up? do i use update-rc.d?
[08:25] <hosangadi_> When I install kdenlive on the computer, and right afterward try to install openshot, it gives an error the dependencies are not fullfilled, ie, openshot needs python 2.5. This happens on ubuntu 11.04
[08:25] <Jordan_U> ahriman: update-grub has no problem with separate /boot partitions. I don't know to what you are reffering. You implied that there was a bug report, could you give a link if there is one?
[08:25] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: was the Gnome 3 ppa quite stable for you or not?  I have even read stuff about it not being that stable
[08:25] <cache_surplus> i dont want to go through the KXX or S00 method
[08:25] <ahriman> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/700910
[08:25] <ActionParsnip> ahriman: my grub skill is low as I single boot. Never had to mess with a bootloader to any huge degree
[08:25] <ahriman> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/703009
[08:25] <Michael88_> Who has a Asus t101mt eeepc with ubuntu 11?
[08:25] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Opacity isn't enabled. When I kill unity-window-decorator I can get complete fullscreen, but not WITH it. I want to fix it, or replace unity-window-decorator
[08:26] <cache_surplus> when i do sudo service whateverservice stop,, the service still comes back after reboot
[08:26] <sebsebseb> ahriman: uh this may be useful or not, but here goes anyway
[08:26] <sebsebseb> !grub2 | ahriman
[08:26] <falafell> OttifantSir, just login with classic environment?
[08:26] <Hulds> hey all where do the window 7 winshare folders mount on so i can set up the unix program to access the same file?
[08:26] <OttifantSir> falafell: I have.
[08:26] <ahriman> reading docs now sebsebseb , will keep checking in here.
[08:26] <sebsebseb> Hulds: what do you mean by winshare files?
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: i use guake to launch apps so was fine as I hardly touched it. Not many crashes in gtk apps tbh. You?
[08:27] <Hulds> i mounted  winshare folders from my windows 7 computer on my unix box
[08:27] <Michael88_> He means a shared folder from the network.  I think
[08:27] <OttifantSir> I have deleted everything Unity, except for unity-window-decorator
[08:27] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: I have "/usr/bin/compiz-decorator" in my Command field in CompizConfig window decoration.
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> Hulds: in a subfolder in ~/.gvfs
[08:27] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: nope not tried installing the Gnome 3 ppa yet,  I will eventually, but may hold off on doing that for a while yet. not sure yet
[08:28] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: installing again I should say, because like I said I treid in the beta 2 where things went wrong
[08:28] <ahriman> help quote "The main menu file, /boot/grub/grub.cfg, is not meant to be edited, even by 'root'." NO KIDDING.
[08:28] <szal> hosangadi_: exact error msg please
[08:28] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: I am using unity,not ubuntu classic.
[08:28] <Vanillux> anyone could help me setup a mailserver please ?
[08:28] <szal> !paste | hosangadi_
[08:29] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: So do I. But it won't start. It always starts unity-window-decorator, no matter what
[08:29] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: I was mainly wondering about what it does exactly, and how stable it is, that's all really
[08:29] <ActionParsnip> ahriman: its because its generated by update-grub using the grub config files
[08:29] <Inside_duck> hi, can someone please take a moment to help me install wifi usb stick?
[08:29] <loopingz> hello, i was wondering if the unity bar is moveable somewhere else as in double screen it's very annoying ?
[08:29] <sebsebseb> loopingz: no don't think so
[08:30] <vaxinated> OttifantSir:Do you have "CompizConfig Settings Manager"?
[08:30] <oncode> Hi there!
[08:30] <sebsebseb> loopingz: unless you completly remove the Unity bar I guess, so both screens
[08:30] <sebsebseb> loopingz: which you probably can't quite do anyway
[08:30] <Whitenoise__> Is there a tool to delete and cull the older kernel/boot files from grub?
[08:30] <loopingz> think i'll go back to my old gnome :)
[08:31] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Yes, and I have checked every module and set compiz-decorator in Window Decor (I'm Norwegian, so perhaps not right), but no luck
[08:31] <Hulds> okay found it... thanks...  another thing once i mount the c: drive on my gnome desktop  it will remember to mount it when i reboot my unix box?
[08:31] <sebsebseb> loopingz: well yeah there's still  Ubuntu Classic Desktop just about, that will go bye bye with 11.10
[08:31] <usb333> Guys, I keep facing the [Errno 5] Input/output error every time I try to install natty. Checked the CD from the menu and it seems to be burnt correctly. What to do?
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> loopingz: as far as I know its coded in so will need changing there. I've heard dual monitor users switching to gnome classic
[08:31] <loopingz> it's a pity as i think unity seems not enough customizable for now
[08:31] <sebsebseb> loopingz: maybe you should try Gnome Shell, if you haven't already :)
[08:31] <arvat> Unity sux
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> usb333: test ram
[08:32] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: My settings are under "Effects", "Window Decoration".
[08:32] <oncode> I got "Disk / is not ready or not present" error, but in /etc/fstab the UUIDs are identical with blkid UUIDs
[08:32] <usb333> ActionParsnip: is it the 'test memory' option?
[08:32] <Inside_duck> got a problem with the install of RTL8187B driver for my usb wifi stick, can someone help me or no?
[08:32] <Inside_duck> please
[08:32] <loopingz> arvat, it's a lot of job to do those kind of dev so don't say it sux say only that it's not fit ur needs
[08:32] <ahriman> ActionParsnip, right, but the script /etc/grub.d/10_linux completely fails to find the kernel.
[08:32] <sebsebseb> loopingz: the new interface from upstream Gnome, and so the real interface, for Gnome 3
[08:33] <ActionParsnip> Whitenoise__: run: uname -a    to see the current kernel
[08:33] <Hulds>  okay found it... thanks...  another thing once i mount the c: drive on my gnome desktop  it will remember to mount it when i reboot my unix box?
[08:33] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Mine too, but I'm Norwegian with Norwegian locale, and I don't always translate Norwegian into the correct module
[08:33] <sebsebseb> arvat: it will improve over time, and then more and more other distro's will probably provide it as an option as well :)
[08:33] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Can you "disable" WIndow Decorations?
[08:34] <sebsebseb> !gnome3 | loopingz
[08:34] <Whitenoise__> ActionParsnip, OK - I know my current kernel...
[08:34] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Done. No title bars. Or any decoration for that matter.
[08:34] <ActionParsnip> Whitenoise__: run:   dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2   to see installed kernels
[08:34] <xmaz> is there a way, i can give all permissions to a dir, and all the subfolders in there?
[08:34] <Inside_duck> nobody?
[08:34] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: does that fix your problem?
[08:34] <Inside_duck> thank you anyway
[08:35] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: No.
[08:35] <Whitenoise__> ActionParsnip, Gotcha, and do dpkg --purge on the unwanted?
[08:35]  * szal looks at Inside_duck and thinks: impatient kiddies..
[08:35] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: I want decorations, I just don't want to see the title bar of the window behind when I watch something in fullscreen
[08:35] <Jordan_U> ahriman: Can you explain your exact situation? How are you booting the live environment? Why do you need a separate /boot/ partition?
[08:36] <Flynsarmy> The open source nvidia 3d drivers have been pretty flawless for me. How are the open source 3d ati ones?
[08:36] <Inside_duck> szal: sorry
[08:36] <Kamilion> Been doing a lot of google searching over the past couple hours looking for a good high resolution webcam with a built in usb mic to order for work. I've got a logitech 9000 pro at home I've been happy with. Can anyone recommend me a couple more cams I should look at that work well with maverick?
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> Whitenoise__: you can remove installed kernels but not the running one. Use software centre or apt-get to remove
[08:36] <Kamilion> Looking for 720P+ at as high framerate as possible.
[08:37] <Whitenoise__> ActionParsnip, cool, thanks...
[08:37] <ActionParsnip> !webcam
[08:37] <sebsebseb> Flynsarmy: yeah the open source Nivivda drivers are pretty good now really, as for ATI uhmmm  I think open source ATI drivers are ok now really most of them, because as far as I know ATI has been open sourceing stuff even
[08:37] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Does it happen with other movie players besides VLC?
[08:37] <ahriman> Jordan_U, sda1=winxp sda2=boot sda3=logical sda5=root sda6=swap sda7=home. This is a fairly typical configuration that was recommended because /boot needed to occur within so many GB of disk space to be loaded on many systems. It became a habit that maybe isn't necessary anymore.
[08:37] <sebsebseb> Flynsarmy: not really that sure about ATI though ^
[08:37] <Kamilion> While the wiki page is nice and all, it's not opinion; just 30 pages of dry information.
[08:38] <Hulds>  okay found it... thanks...  another thing once i mount the c: drive on my gnome desktop  it will remember to mount it when i reboot my unix box?
[08:38] <Jordan_U> ahriman: I would try without that separate /boot/ as a work around.
[08:38] <Kamilion> Asking for subjective opinion of the 1600 people in the channel.
[08:38] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: It happens with ALL windows. If I go to fullscreen in Opera, I see the title bar of the window behind it. Same with Totem, Transmission, Arista, LibreOffice, Cheese, etc etc
[08:38] <Jordan_U> ahriman: How are you booting the live environment?
[08:39] <Kartagis> do I need to create/self-sign a client certificate for openvpn? I'll be the only one to connect
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> Kamilion: why do you want opinion. The lists show what works and what doesn't
[08:39] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Until we find the solution,  try to change your "workspace" to one with no other windows.
[08:39] <Kamilion> For example, the logitech listing doesn't even show the maximum capture resolution -- which is640x480 on maverick for my 9000, not 1280x720.
[08:40] <szal> Inside_duck: no unsolicited private chats please
[08:40] <Neirad> Hey everyone! I'm having difficulty with installing photoshop with wine. Can anyone help me?
[08:40] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Can you tell me how I can purge my system of Unity completely? unity-window-decorator is the last remnant. Where's it hiding?
[08:40] <sebsebseb> Neirad: Which version?
[08:40] <ahriman> Jordan_U, I already copied the contents of /boot to / and edited the /etc/fstab. Still fails. I'm going to try and do the chroot environment install of grub and see if 10_linux can succeed that way. This is a total botch tho because making /boot for a long time was required and anyone with multiple locations = failed UUID mappings and failed grub install often rendering the machine into a brick
[08:40] <Kamilion> So, anybody have good experiences with a 720+ webcam in maverick or natty? /query me if you don't feel like cluttering the channel.
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> Kamilion: logitech refuse to support Linux, the community has made a driver and that's what it does u
[08:41] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Why not use "Ubuntu Classic".  It is the GNOME desktop instead of Unity.
[08:41] <Neirad>  @seb of photoshop? or wine?
[08:41] <sebsebseb> Neirad: of Photoshop
[08:41] <Inside_duck> ok :( think i'm just gonna leave this OS on the corner...
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> Neird: check the appdb
[08:41] <sebsebseb> !tab | Neirad
[08:41] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: I AM! BUT UNITY-WINDOW-DECORATOR IS STILL RUNNING!
[08:41] <Drake|> OttifantSir: Terminal ftw ;)
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> !caps
[08:41] <sebsebseb> Neirad: ActionParsnip Good luck with appdb I find it quite useless most of the time!
[08:42] <Neirad>  sebsebseb: It's version Cs4
[08:42] <ahriman> Jordan_U, I'm currently booting LiveCD in order to make changes to the file system, and adding a second USB key to migrate files if required. The same drive config worked fine in 10.10 but fails miserably in 11.04
[08:42] <vaxinated> OttifantSIr: so you are using gnome and not unity desktop?
[08:42] <OttifantSir> Drake|: Yeah, wish I had the skills necessary
[08:42] <sebsebseb> Neirad: right yeah that's probably it then
[08:42] <Jordan_U> ahriman: The bug you linked to only occurs when you are loading the live system from the same partition you are installing grub to, which is not common at all. It does not occur for most people who have a separate /boot.
[08:42] <sebsebseb> Neirad: take Photoshop 7 for example, that is bound to work rather well in Wine
[08:42] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Yes, I've told you so earlier
[08:42] <sebsebseb> Neirad: ,but the rather latest versions, well they won't work that well in it
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: sometimes has some nice settings
[08:42] <szal> Neirad: http://appdb.winehq.com/
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> !appdb
[08:42] <sebsebseb> Neirad: altough it seems from what I read not that long ago, that Adobe may even eventaully port Photoshop natively to Linux :)
[08:42] <Kamilion> ActionParsnip: If by 'refuses to support' you mean 'sporadic wall-chucking of code', I'd say, yeah. http://www.quickcamteam.net/software/libwebcam/
[08:42] <Neirad>  Sebsebseb: do you know if dreamweaver works at all?
[08:43] <Jordan_U> ahriman: OK, you are booting from a physical spinning CD?
[08:43] <vaxinated> OttifantSir: Have you tried the "Unity" desktop to see if it does the same bleeding through effect?
[08:43] <sebsebseb> Neirad: again depends on the version. also with Wine it can depend on how you set things up how well an app works or not
[08:43] <Drake|> OttifantSir:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=990636 <--- Just start :) will come in time.. Im currently not an expert.. Yet :)
[08:43] <sebsebseb> Neirad: and playing around with wineconf isn't realy for the average user, but luckily ther are programs that can help do that kind of thing for you, such as playonlinux mainly for games, and uhmm winetricks
[08:43] <Kamilion> As I mentioned, I've spent all afternoon trying to find decent cams that work well with maverick.
[08:43] <OttifantSir> ActionParsnip: I'm sorry, but I got frustrated with him asking me for the fifth time to do something I've told him I've done
[08:44] <sebsebseb> !winehq | Neirad
[08:44] <freehck> yeah, weechat rule! )
[08:44] <Neirad>  Sebsebseb: Hmm..yeah I have been reading a few tutorials but I run into a deadend when I go to run the installer, it freezes up or just plain won't run
[08:44] <freehck> hi, people. )
[08:44] <Kamilion> If anyone can give me a better recommendation than 'buy more 9000s since yours works fine', I'd love to hear it.
[08:44] <sebsebseb> Neirad: well why you want Photoshop and Dreamwaver so bad anyway?  we do have alternaives :)  ok sure they don't quite have as much features as the propritary programs, but even so are pretty good
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> Kamilion: they don't make drivers and expressed zero interest in starting. Kodak are the same. I suggest you avoid companies not supporting Linux but that's me
[08:45] <Kamilion> I'd love to. If someone could recommend me a good 720p camera! Haha
[08:45] <Neirad>  Sebsebseb: because I've very familar with them and I need them for a project for school xD
[08:45] <sebsebseb> Neirad: Ok how much RAM you got?
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> Neirad: also ask in #winehq
[08:45] <OttifantSir> vaxinated: Yes, I tried that POS, logged out, logged in classic, removed everything unity with Synaptic, yet unity-window-decorator is there, ruining my experience. I believe it's because I no longer run Unity, and Unity's default is to blame (Title bar and menu bar on same space)
[08:45] <Neirad>  Sebsebseb: Only 2gb :O
[08:46] <sebsebseb> Neirad: yes I am thinking maybe you can virtual machine them,  if you don't want to just use a pshyicall install of Windows for it,  yeah with 2GB you can maybe do what I am suggesting,  I guess to some extent would depend on other hardawre you got as well though, but worth a try
[08:46] <Jordan_U> falafell: Is your USB currently setup by unetbootin / startup disk creator or have you modified it since that?
[08:46] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox | Neirad
[08:47] <ahriman> Jordan_U, I found something very interesting. /boot which is /dev/sda2 contains no kernel whatsoever
[08:47] <Jordan_U> ahriman: Are you booting from a physical spinning CD?
[08:47] <Neirad>  Sebsebseb: So you're suggesting that I install windows on a different partition again? I'm not familiar with virtual box
[08:47] <sebsebseb> Neirad: that factoid needs updating I think, because I think now there's only really one version, and the propritary stuff such as USB support can be added.  By the way it's ok to use Windows still for some programs really, Linux distro' are meant to replace Unix rather fully, not Windows.
[08:47] <philipballew> Neirad what type of photoshop?
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> Kamilion: look at what is known to work then research if it does what you want. That's why i gave the webcam factoid
[08:48] <ahriman> Jordan_U, no, I'm using unetbootin generated LiveCD to boot and make edits.
[08:48] <ahriman> I'm almost done with the creation of the chroot
[08:48] <Jordan_U> ahriman: So it's a liveUSB?
[08:48] <sebsebseb> Neirad: Virtualbox allows an OS to run inside an OS
[08:48] <sebsebseb> Neirad: works rather well except for 3D programs for example
[08:49] <sebsebseb> depending on hardware to an extent as well of cousre
[08:49] <Kartagis> do I need to create/self-sign a client certificate for openvpn? I'll be the only one to connect
[08:49] <sebsebseb> Neirad: with 2GB RAM, you got more than enough for a virtual machine though :)
[08:50] <Kamilion> ... Sheesh, I should have just searched youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJVa_ltM9mw
[08:50] <ahriman> Jordan_U, correct. And I'm missing /bin/sh in the installed version
[08:50] <Kamilion> The logitech C910 for $99 works, and does 1280x800 out of the box, with audio.
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: yikes. Ram drain. Ubuntu + virtualbox + windows + photoplop   better have some grunt to drive all that
[08:50] <Kamilion> Time to order four. :D
[08:50] <Jordan_U> ahriman: Is the USB drive that you setup with unetbootin, and are booting the live environment from, the same drive you are installing Ubuntu and grub to?
[08:51] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: well like I said to Neirad  it's woth try, as in it may not work that well, but worth a try
[08:51] <szal> ActionParsnip: w/ 2 GB you can even run out of space w/o all that stuff ;)
[08:51] <Kamilion> ooh, nice, newegg's got 'em for $75.
[08:51] <shomon> ok I keep ssh-ing into other computers, then I come back and they've timed out.  What command are you running and what error message are you seeing?
[08:52] <sebsebseb> Neirad:  off topic now really, but uhmm if it's true that you really need Photoshop for school that's quite stupid really, because ideally they should be teaching you how to make graphics in more than one program, and then letting you also choose what to use :)
[08:54] <biprodip> auto eth0 do not appears in connection in ubuntu10.04
[08:54] <ahriman> it looks like the apt system failed :/ I'm missing doc-base. I should be able to repair this but I need to go offline to do it
[08:54] <ahriman> Jordan_U, it looks like the apt system failed :/ I'm missing doc-base. I should be able to repair this but I need to go offline to do it
[08:55] <szal> sebsebseb: unfortunately education is most often not "ideal"..  I was in a job training programme some time ago & they refused to deal w/ OOo because "that's not what companies use in their daily business"
[08:55] <ahriman> There's just a TON of packages missing, some weirdness with the usb image perhaps. I don't even *have* a kernel inside /boot
[08:55] <sebsebseb> szal: yeah I know,  most Eductional Establishments and work places for that matter, are very much so locked into propritary software
[08:56] <ahriman> Going offline, the grub doc helped
[08:56] <_joey> i've got ppp connection going through network connection that come with gnome. The problem is after a little while /etc/resolv.conf looses nameservers. Upon new ppp connection /etc/resolv.conf is updated with nameserver, after a period of time, the nameservers are gone. The ppp connection is active, however.
[08:56] <_joey> this is weird.
[08:56] <_joey> has anyone heard anything about this particular problem>?
[08:56] <szal> !anyone
[08:57] <ahriman> _joey, you could be weird and do chmod -w /etc/resolv.conf
[08:57] <xmaz> !poll
[08:57] <szal> _joey: are you talking about (A)DSL or tunneling/VPN?
[08:58] <ahriman> _joey, it is likely strangeness with the DHCP server you're getting your config from but you can override that a little bit clientside
[08:58] <szal> _joey: or even analog modem dial-up?
[08:58] <ahriman> i'm gone... gl
[08:58] <_joey> ahriman: why would I need to do that if the application that starts pppd needs to write to resolv.conf
[08:58] <_joey> szal: it's wireless umts over 3g link
[08:59] <cache_surplus> when i do sudo service whateverservice stop,, the service still comes back after reboot
[08:59] <cache_surplus> whats the best way to stop a service from starting at boot up? do i use update-rc.d?
[08:59]  * szal would guess connectivity issues, but no friggin' idea about wifi here
[08:59] <szal> cache_surplus: chkconfig whaterverservice off
[09:00] <cache_surplus> szal: chkconfig is for redhat, not ubuntu
[09:00] <cache_surplus> but thanks for trying ;)
[09:00] <cache_surplus> also this is a desktop
[09:01] <shomon> what is the keyboard combination to close an ssh session in a gnome terminal?
[09:01] <Drake|> cache_surplus:  sudo stop "service name" only  stops it.. Just like in windows.  seems like you need to du a update-rc.d -f to disable it
[09:01] <_joey> there is not connectivity issue
