[00:00] <erik14213usa> how is the bug fixed
[00:00] <balzac> i just installed a wireless atheros mini-pci card
[00:00] <joosengee> River, do you have the email?
[00:00] <bazhang> stapel, the bug has an assignee (someone to work on it) so it will be fixed --karmic is only two days old or so
[00:00] <balzac> i'm trying to make sure it's installed properly
[00:00] <Jester05> alright thanks bazhang .. I'm kind of confused about it b/c it seems like everything else is working fine w/ nvidia.. worried I may have done something to my monitor.. I was using it on my mythtvbox earlier this week :-x
[00:01] <joosengee> I need to contact with you with the urgent case.
[00:01] <dr3mro> plz how to dend files in empathy and enable av chat i use msn

[00:01] <trampel> popkorn:  a wild notion:  you've killed all pulseaudio daemons and/or rebooted?
[00:01] <x4556> SAMBA SUCKS
[00:02] <joosengee> karmic is good or not ,now?
[00:02] <erik14213usa> i get the white ubuntu logo before it wont goto logon page
[00:02] <x4556> no one wants to help
[00:02] <nfrs> hi. I'm trying to completely remove pulseaudio from my system. uninstalled all packages that had "pulse" in them, but mplayer and other apps still attempt to use it for some reason, and it doesn't go away from the sound devices list. can anyone advise?
[00:02] <nfrs> (karmic)
[00:02] <stapel> erik14213usa: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/busybox/+bug/290153
[00:02] <acke> hey, anyone tried triple boot with wubi?
[00:03] <joosengee> logon page like as windows but it can't use the ie?
[00:03] <acke> anyone tried tripleboot with wubi on a macbook?
[00:03] <ascheel> using apt-get, how do you force a complete reinstall of a particular package?
[00:03] <Crosswing> nfrs: hi, I haven't tried Karmic yet, nor do I have a solution for your problem, but I am curious, what's wrong with pulseaudio?
[00:03] <joosengee> to work about the banking activity?
[00:03] <trampel> ash-2plus1: apt-get install --reinstall    ...i think
[00:03] <ascheel> acke:  wubi + Windows Installer for Ubuntu
[00:03] <ascheel> trampel: thank you
[00:03] <larsemil> is there a usb-creator for windows?
[00:04] <trampel> ash-2plus1: sorry about that, that was ascheel
[00:04] <erik14213usa> can someone please to what i need to
[00:04] <nwillems> MikeChelen: Thanks, I was wondering, JOONE, comes as a .jar file, can't i just copy the file into /usr/share/java?
[00:04] <Hillshum> larsemil: unetbootin
[00:04] <bazhang> larsemil, something called unetbootin (only works on windows for linux)
[00:04] <acke> ascheel: How do you mean? did you install it next to os x?
[00:04] <erik14213usa> i guess i have to try commandline
[00:04] <MikeChelen> nwillems: idk, maybe? give it a try :D
[00:04] <larsemil> bazhang: for some reason i dont get it to work
[00:04] <erik14213usa> or what
[00:04] <twal321> If I mark to remove pulseaudio Synaptic marks to remove ubuntu-desktop!
[00:04] <ascheel> acke: wubi = *WINDOWS* installer for Ubuntu
[00:04] <nfrs> Crosswing: two words: no sound
[00:04] <joosengee> someone can use the ie to do the activity of banking?
[00:04] <Timmymayes> any one familiar with twinview on nvidia hardware?
[00:04] <IndyGunFreak> twal321: its just a metapackage, its fine
[00:04] <ascheel> acke: windows != mac OS X
[00:04] <bazhang> larsemil, with ubuntu iso?
[00:05] <IndyGunFreak> Timmymayes: i've got dual screens on my desktop..
[00:05] <larsemil> bazhang: yep. it does not boot after its done
[00:05] <JessD> hello all; I've gotten a USB wireless nic configured in ndiswrapper; the device is present, the driver's installed, but there's no listing for it in ifconfig; any idea what I'm missing?
[00:05] <erik14213usa> do i goin under recovery mode
[00:05] <Timmymayes> IndyGunFreak, i'm using dual monitors too the question tho is how do i setup a hotkey to move a window from one monitor to the other? I don't want to change virtual desktops
[00:05] <bazhang> larsemil, I had the same issue, got it going after a couple of tries
[00:05] <Crosswing> nfrs: ack, sorry to hear that.
[00:05] <acke> ascheel: yes I know. my question was, have you installed ubuntu (from the windows installer) on a macbooc where you are running windows and osx?
[00:06] <IndyGunFreak> Timmymayes: i use twinview, so i just drag/drop it... i'm assuming you're running separate x screens
[00:06] <ascheel> acke: windows running in Parallels is a normal Windows installation and as such will work just fine assuming you're running a distro that's built on an x86 architechture
[00:06] <n8tuser> JessD-> does it show in dmesg or sudo lshw -C network ?
[00:06] <larsemil> bazhang: ok will try again then. and with some different memories
[00:06] <Timmymayes> i use twinview
[00:06] <balzac> broadcom atheros card
[00:06] <Timmymayes> but i don't want to have to drag and drop
[00:06] <Timmymayes> i'm very keyboard centric
[00:06] <vladimir_> can someone check if my apache works by clicking this ? http://<IP_ADDRESS>/
[00:07] <balzac> broadcom atheros card
[00:07] <balzac> ubuntu 8.10
[00:07] <Jester05> bazhang, sorry to bother you but I figure you may the one to have a good judgement call on this.. do you think I should try to try an older driver or maybe a new beta?
[00:07] <Timmymayes> for exmaple in windows with ultramon i used alt+ctrl + left & right and it popped between monitors
[00:07] <Timmymayes> for exmaple in windows with ultramon i used alt+ctrl + left & right and it popped between monitors
[00:07] <eremite> I have a quick question  about upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic.  Will upgrading via the update manager delete my configs and files?  Will I still have the same themes?  Will all my music, vids and pics be deleted?
[00:07] <Timmymayes> oops
[00:07] <JessD> Nope
[00:07] <bazhang> Jester05, which card
[00:07] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: that makes no sense, a broadcom atheros card?
[00:07] <JessD> n8tuser : Nope
[00:07] <syslq_> http://keyserver.ubuntu.com is not avaliable, what can I do?
[00:07] <balzac> i thought they were the same
[00:07] <Jester05> nvidia 9800GTX+ Black Edition
[00:07] <x4556> can someone PLEASE help with samba
[00:07] <trampel> balzac: you're using the ath9k module and no luck?
[00:08] <hylian> it's me daedalus-sax. thought that was too long a name to type.
[00:08] <ascheel> Broadcom and Atheros are 2 different wireless chipset manufacturers
[00:08] <Jester05> bazhang, Nvidia 9800GTX+ Black Edition
[00:08] <balzac> nevermind that, a broadcom BCM4311
[00:08] <n8tuser> JessD-> can you paste in pastebin the results of those commands?
[00:08] <eremite> I have a quick question  about upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic.  Will upgrading via the update manager delete my configs and files?  Will I still have the same themes?  Will all my music, vids and pics be deleted?
[00:08] <Hillshum> eremite: You're themes might change, depending on where they are stored. Your music etc will stay
[00:08] <balzac> trampel: any new driver I'll have to transfer with a USB stick
[00:08] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[00:08] <bazhang> Jester05, I would go with whatever hardware drivers recommends
[00:08] <balzac> an update broke my wireless
[00:08] <joeyeye> how do I get fwd/back buttons working in firefox 3.5.5pre under Karmic ? (using the mouse)
[00:08] <vladimir_> how do i set my ip to static ?
[00:08] <balzac> 8.10
[00:08] <eremite> Hillshum: awesome.  Thanks.
[00:08] <ascheel> eremite: it removes the human theme, but your current theme will work fine.
[00:09] <n8tuser> Vladimir-> use ip or ifconfig commands
[00:09] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: did you just install it?... if so, why 8.10?
[00:09] <Jester05> bazhang, I tried that but its giving me this, not detecting the second monitor crap
[00:09] <erik_71usa> hi can someone please give any ideas
[00:09] <balzac> IndyGunFreak: it's the same version that broke my wireless
[00:09] <balzac> I also have an intel card
[00:09] <acke> ascheel: I dont understand. :) after going through the hazel of installing windows next to os x with bootcamp, Im feeling a bit insecure about how rEFIt lilo and bootcamp will react to this dualboot on the windows side. .)
[00:09] <SporkWitch> anyone muck about with this on one of the newer model toshiba satellites? disabling ACPI resolved the issue i was having earlier where it wouldn't accept the laptop's keyboard or touchpad input, now i'm trying to get it to find the integrated wifi (no hardware switch for it, just a FN+Fkey combo)
[00:09] <hylian> fyi, the reason why gdm wouldn't stop is, i was using ctrl-alt f1 instead of f4, and i didn't init 3 before using service gdm stop, (service stop gdm doesn't work)
[00:09] <balzac> and a pcmcia card
[00:09] <bazhang> Jester05, ah sorry missed you were using two monitors
[00:09] <eremite> Does upgrading releases mess with a dual boot system (Win XP)?
[00:09] <aprilhare> hello
[00:09] <hylian> thanx for all the help guys! (and gals)
[00:10] <erik_71usa> i dont ubuntu 9.10 is ready
[00:10] <balzac> i've found the driver situation so arcane, i haven't been able to install any of them in a reasonable amount of time
[00:10] <Xgates> gdm was messed up I had someone purge it then trying to reinstall and it's not going back in with install or reinstall ----> http://pastebin.com/d366d52ee
[00:10] <joosengee> Soneone use the karmic?
[00:10] <bazhang> eremite, via the net? the alternate cd? shouldn't no
[00:10] <n8tuser> SporkWitch-> perhaps in the bios?  also check the results of dmesg and sudo lshw -C network
[00:10] <Jester05> when i click to configure my card its also only giving me one option for what to do w/ them where it usually said sep. X, clone, twinview.... its only saying sep. x the others are grayed out.  This may be due to it not realizing I have another monitor but I'm not sure
[00:10] <erik_71usa> after i installed i rebooted an cant get to the damn logon screen
[00:10] <SporkWitch> n8: shouldn't be the BIOS, it's working fine in win7
[00:10] <eremite> Does anyone know if they have fixed the INTEL problem that was present with Jaunty in Karmic?
[00:10] <Jester05> bazhang,  read above plz :)
[00:10] <bazhang> Jester05, what about xrandr
[00:10] <SporkWitch> no changes have been made ot BIOS
[00:10] <hylian> eremite: only with ubuntu, it wouldn't even tough windows unless somehting happened to the boot manager dring update
[00:11] <Jester05> xrandr?
[00:11] <Hillshum> eremite: which one?
[00:11] <twal321> thanks all --- twal321 <--- rebooting
[00:11] <ctmjr> Jester05: i have that card and installed the driver from nvidia 190.42 (has overscan slider for tv). it works great
[00:11] <balzac> i guess i'll just string a wire into this room. drilling holes is easier.
[00:11] <erik_71usa> anyone have anyideas
[00:11] <JessD> n8tuser : http://pastebin.com/m23066d57
[00:11] <bazhang> !xrandr | Jester05
[00:11] <balzac> then I'll be able to use a wire to get my wireless driver
[00:11] <n8tuser> XGas-> see if tasksel will redownload it for you
[00:11] <Jester05> ctmjr, thank you
[00:11] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: you can get wireless working, why don't you download the current version of ubuntu(9.10) and start there
[00:11] <bazhang> ah the bot quit
[00:11] <aprilhare> does anyone notice that when they run karmic the canonical symbol looks skewed? (similar to 4:3 -> 16:10 skewing effect)
[00:11] <Hillshum> ubottu is having issues
[00:11] <Jester05> bazhang, I think ctmjr may have cleared it up for me
[00:11] <Jester05> thank you tho bazhang
[00:11] <bazhang> Jester05, okay nice
[00:12] <balzac> IndyGunFreak: I'll plug it into a wire and then upgrade
[00:12] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: i can't speak for 9.10, but you can use the 9.10 live CD to installt he driver.
[00:12] <Jester05> ctmjr, where you having the same issue i spoke of?
[00:12] <erik_71usa> does anyone have ideas
[00:12] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: lol, i wouldnt upgrade, bu thats just me
[00:12] <aprilhare> i didn't really pay that much attention until i tried karmic on my laptop. it didn't appear skewed on my laptop.
[00:12] <balzac> because it'll probably break again after i upgrade
[00:12] <erik_71usa> on how to fix the video problem
[00:12] <ZykoticK9> eremite, on my eee 701 with intel graphics karmic graphics work MUCH better!
[00:12] <erik_71usa> using recovery mode
[00:12] <balzac> IndyGunFreak: maybe you're right. I can install fresh.
[00:12] <xrandr> I am here :)
[00:12] <balzac> back up my files and start fresh like windoze
[00:12] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: not neccesarily, just downloaded 9.10 today, and it can't find my internal wireless NIC; yes it's on (works in win7 and indicator is still lit when running from the ubuntu livecd)
[00:13] <n8tuser> JessD-> you seemed to have an ip assigned look at line 16
[00:13] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: i'd recommend clean installing 9.10, because otherwise, you're gonna sit for a while, while upgrading 8.10 to 9.04, then 9.04 to 9.10.. lot of potential for something to go wrong
[00:13] <grymme> erik_71usa: do you get to the terminal with crtl+alt+F1?
[00:13] <popkorn> thanx all. bye for now
[00:13] <balzac> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[00:13] <IndyGunFreak> SporkWitch: what wireless device is it?
[00:13] <balzac> i think that's the best idea.
[00:13] <IndyGunFreak> balzac: good luck, thats what i would do.
[00:13] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: sec, i'll try to pull it up online
[00:13] <balzac> i'll download 9.10
[00:13] <JessD> n8user : Check line 1 : That's the broadcom
[00:13] <cYmen> Why does gdm have a loading bar now?
[00:13] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: laptop is a toshiba satellite l505d-s5994
[00:13] <JessD> n8user : It's a Linksys that isn;t working
[00:13] <cYmen> It seems slower...has it always been this way or did something change?
[00:13] <n8tuser> JessD-> you have a broadcom or atheros chips?
[00:13] <IndyGunFreak> well that tells me nothing, need to know the chipset on the wireless device
[00:14] <joosengee> ubuntu is free not pay about the subscritption or not ?
[00:14] <Ratapoil> whats the command to reset X server?
[00:14] <IndyGunFreak> joosengee: yes, completely free
[00:14] <n8tuser> !who | JessD
[00:14] <JessD> n8user : WUSB54GSC v 2
[00:14] <Random832> so... i can't resume from hibernate
[00:14] <hylian> how do i make my ntfs partition mount at boot? i have 9.10.
[00:14] <Xgates> I can't reinstall gdm got errors ---> http://pastebin.com/d366d52ee
[00:14] <joosengee> long time not like red hat?
[00:14] <n8tuser> JessD-> type my nick correctly or i will miss your responses
[00:14] <Ratapoil> what's the keyboard shortcut to reset X server that replace Ctrl Alt Backspace
[00:14] <Random832> in the past i've fixed this by setting the resume device explicitly in menu.lst, but it's annoying to do that every time a new kernel version comes out
[00:14] <Xgates> how do you reinstall a pkg when either apt or dpkg seems to get borked
[00:14] <JessD> n8tuser : Sorry 'bout that
[00:14] <VCoolio> Ratapoil: alt+printscreen+k
[00:15] <n8tuser> JessD-> you have a broadcom or atheros chips?
[00:15] <awisgod> anyone here good with conky?
[00:15] <VCoolio> Ratapoil: sysrq rather, but it's the same
[00:15] <joosengee> IndyGunFreak ubuntu is free long time not like Red Hat?
[00:15] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: manual doesn't list exact model number, but it's just a realtek 802.11b/g/n
[00:15] <SporkWitch> sees the wired and connects on that fine
[00:15] <IndyGunFreak> joosengee: its free forever
[00:15] <VCoolio> awisgod: just ask, we'll see
[00:16] <erik_71usa> so im not sure what to do
[00:16] <erik_71usa> to fix it
[00:16] <awisgod> kk, I am having some troubles getting conky to read the config i want it to use
[00:16] <JessD> n8tuser : both; atheros wired nic, broadcom wireless
[00:16] <VCoolio> awisgod: conky -c /path/to/config
[00:16] <adnc> hi, empathy doesnt show me the my accounts anymore and msn is not in the list of possible protocolls. is there  a way i can get empathy set to its initial state again?
[00:16] <IndyGunFreak> JessD: the wired is irrelevant, if you're tryign to fix wireless
[00:16] <hylian> do i have to change my fstab to mount a ntfs on boot, or is there a nicer, more gui way of saying i want full time access to this hard drive?
[00:16] <joosengee> I don't know the cost about the server of ubuntu, it must use the money. How 's  about he do?
[00:16] <n8tuser> JessD-> which one would you like to use? only use one at a time if connected to same subnet
[00:16] <ctmjr> Jester05: for some reason i had a lot of problems with the 180 and 185 driver the new one fixed it
[00:17] <SporkWitch> joosengee: you cannot charge money for a linux operating system.  period.  The only thing you can do is charge for customer service, or possibly proprietary programs you bundle with it
[00:17] <SporkWitch> but a linux operating system itself cannot be charged for
[00:17] <erik_71usa> i guess no one knows
[00:17] <netsdaniel> I've got a problem with my Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade, when it boots after the installation it brings a black screen, I cannot change to console mode, 'cause it does nothing when I press ctrl+alt+f1...f6, also there's no sound and the hd stops spinning, can someone help me please??
[00:17] <VCoolio> hylian: a gui will also edit fstab, so if you know what to edit do it by commandline
[00:17] <erik_71usa> i dont so im sol
[00:17] <IndyGunFreak> netsdaniel: u and 2-300 other people.. :)
[00:18] <JessD> n8tuser : Here's the deal; I have a smaller PC under my TV that I'm trying to get working, and I can't reach it with a wire to test and google at the same time, so I'm trying to see if I can get a method established to confgure this nic on the tv from here
[00:18] <zroysch> wheres the log to read what would make server make an internal speaker beep, and have networking apparently fail for 5 minutes or so, gmpc and ssh failed to connect. during this time, now its back up like normal. i see nothing in /var/log/messages or dmesg.
[00:18] <hylian> vcoolio: what i meant is, is there a place in the menu system i haven't seen that does this same thing.
[00:18] <Xgates> where are the postrm and the postinst scripts for gdm?
[00:19] <smacktalk1> I just installed Nagios...how do I get to the interface?
[00:19] <kruykaze> hi guys how do i run a program through ssh and keep it running after i close the terminal?
[00:19] <zroysch> kruykaze: screen
[00:19] <Random832> so does anyone know anything about this hibernation issue? it started happening after i resized the swap partition
[00:19] <IndyGunFreak> JessD: which broadcom device are you trying tog et working?
[00:19] <kruykaze> zroysch, screen and then command?
[00:19] <hylian> ok bye all
[00:19] <JessD> IndyGunFreak : The broadcom works, it's a linksys WUSB54GSC v 2 that doesn't work
[00:20] <zroysch> kruykaze: install screen on the server, read man.
[00:20] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[00:20] <tertitten> anyone have any idea of what driver to install for Radeon X1950 video card ? I need the tv out option accessable :)
[00:20] <kruykaze> zroysch, thank you
[00:20] <zroysch> kruykaze: basically: to start the programX you do screen programX
[00:21] <zroysch> kruykaze: CTRL+A, CTRL+D to detach
[00:21] <zroysch> screen -r to resume
[00:21] <n8tuser> JessD-> okay the wireless right?
[00:21] <zroysch> or screen -d -r if it somehow got donged, -d detaches
[00:21] <n8tuser> JessD-> okay the wireless works right?
[00:21] <kruykaze> zroysch, sweet thx
[00:21] <JessD> n8tuser : I have two wireless nics; the atheros works, the linksys does not
[00:21] <JessD> n8tuser : I'm trying to get the linksys working
[00:22] <mebigfatguy> where those sound patches supposed to fix the no sound problem... didn't seem to.
[00:22] <Mefached> How do I find out the MAC address of this machine?
[00:22] <Valentina> I have this in a script that I run through a cron job: echo "Hourly Scan Successful: $(date)" >> $HOME/Desktop/scanning.log The problem is that the script seem to be working BUT the echo command won't write a log message to the log file. Why?
[00:22] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: any suggestions for forcing this thing to see the realtek wireless NIC?
[00:22] <SporkWitch> Mefached: ifconfig -a
[00:22] <tertitten> anyone have any idea of what driver to install for Radeon X1950 video card ? I need the tv out option accessable :)
[00:22] <VCoolio> kruykaze: if you only want to be able to close the terminal, just put a '&' behind the command to put it in background
[00:22] <IndyGunFreak> SporkWitch: not a clue.. i guess the question becomes, why
[00:22] <n8tuser> JessD-> it only detected one not both.. see your results you pasted
[00:22] <Mefached> Then how do I spoof the MAC on another machine, also running Ubuntu?
[00:22] <JessD> kruykaze : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2nZdChQvAs
[00:22] <zroysch> wheres the log to read what would make server make an internal speaker beep, and have networking apparently fail for 5 minutes or so, gmpc and ssh failed to connect. during this time, now its back up like normal. i see nothing in /var/log/messages or dmesg.
[00:23] <kruykaze> beautiful thx guys
[00:23] <Valentina> I have the scanning.log file and it has the user have permissions to rw. The user also have the cron job. BUT no log message will be written.
[00:23] <JessD> n8tuser : I know that.  I followed the steps outlined here : http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/linksys-wusb54gsc-on-ubuntu-8.04.1-solved-664463/
[00:23] <n8tuser> JessD-> your driver for your atheros may not have been loaded yet
[00:23] <Mefached> In ifconfig -a, when it says HWaddr, that is the MAC, yes?
[00:23] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: why it won't detect it, you mean?
[00:23] <m0se5> hi everyone. I have ssh access to a computer running the Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop live cd. How do I remotely install ubuntu to that computer over ssh? pass the -X option to ssh and run ubiquity?
[00:23] <JessD> n8tuser :If I do ndiswrapper -i with the linksys connected, it shows the device is connected, but if I disconnect it and run the same command, it doesn't state it's connected
[00:24] <IndyGunFreak> no, why use the USB one, when the internal works fine
[00:24] <SporkWitch> Mefached: yes
[00:24] <Mathias90> Hi. Can someone tell me how long it usually takes to write a new partition table? It is a 2 terabyte disk with 16484 blocks. It looks like its gonna take a while for it to write all the inode tables..
[00:24] <n8tuser> JessD-> perhaps there is a conflict, have only one at atime
[00:24] <IndyGunFreak> Mathias90: not as long as you'd think... all depends on how much data has to be moved, etc
[00:24] <JessD> IndyGunFreak : Trying to find a method of using the linksys for a machine I can't get network access to without this card
[00:24] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: think we're mixing convos; i'm talking about the internal realtek wireless NIC not being detected; i have no USB one
[00:25] <bizzle> i load the ubuntu installer and it askes for a login, what is the login?
[00:25] <penguin42> Mathias90: Partition table tiny; a new filesystem which sounds like what you are doing is a lot longer
[00:25] <IndyGunFreak> SporkWitch: i'm sorry.
[00:25] <Mefached> Would there be any negative side effects for spoofing that MAC with my laptop?
[00:25] <JessD> SporkWitch IndyGunFreak : Think I'm stomping your toes, sorry!
[00:25] <joosengee> what's about the cloud computing in the ubuntu karmic server?
[00:25] <IndyGunFreak> JessD: no, i was confusing the two of you.. you answered my question
[00:25] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: no worries; JessD: no worries, i'm used to holding 10 convos at once, heh
[00:26] <Mathias90> IndyGunFreak > Oh well. Thanks for replying. The fact that it says 138/16384 just seems a bit odd.
[00:26] <Mathias90> Thats like 1/4 procent!
[00:26] <penguin42> hmm that is tiny
[00:26] <bizzle> hello i can not install ubuntu, when i boot the cd it askes for a login, what is the correct login. i can not find this information
[00:27] <SporkWitch> Mefached: why are you trying to? o.O
[00:27] <IndyGunFreak> bizzle: i believe if you pay attention, at the bottom it says, "Automatic login in 10sec" don't click anything, or anything like that, and it will eventually log you in
[00:27] <Mefached> SporkWitch, my ISP, Comcast, has set up a box here with MAC filtering, and only my desktop works wired. I want to set up a WiFi router here, but until then, I want to be able to wire my laptop in.
[00:27] <m0se5> bizzle, there shouldn't be a login... username: ubuntu password: <blank>
[00:28] <bizzle> indygunfreak, i let it sit there for an hour and it never did anything
[00:28] <Degar> join #ubuntu.pl
[00:28] <joosengee> can I use ping -a <IP_ADDRESS>?
[00:28] <bizzle> and ubuntu with no password does not wor
[00:28] <IndyGunFreak> bizzle: and you're sure its a live CD
[00:28] <daf_> I do I install a command line only install using the karmic alt cd?
[00:28] <IndyGunFreak> for Ubuntu?
[00:28] <joosengee> for find the windows computer name?
[00:28] <SporkWitch> Mefached: so you're trying to use the desktop as a router for the laptop to connect to?
[00:28] <bizzle> its the i386 normal cd
[00:28] <m0se5> daf_, use the ubuntu server disk?
[00:29] <IndyGunFreak> bizzle: there is no password required on that CD, i've used it tons of times, i'm sure of it
[00:29] <Mathias90> penguin42 > Thanks for replying. Do you think its normal? The disc is removed from a refurbish Buffalo Linkstation.
[00:29] <Sagaci> daf_: ubuntu server edition
[00:29] <joosengee> I can?
[00:29] <Sagaci> !server
[00:29] <bizzle> yeah and i've used older versions and never had this issue
[00:29] <Mefached> SporkWitch, well, no. My ultimate goal is to spoof the MAC address on a wifi router to get a wifi connection set up at this house. However, in the meantime, I want to connect directly with my laptop. Tethering through my smartphone is too slow for me sometimes.
[00:29] <rob0917> check the cd for defects
[00:29] <bizzle> nevermind this distro is useless
[00:30] <penguin42> Mathias90: I've never gone as high as 2TB - and it's a long time since I did one over 1TB - it doesn't sound right; I'd watch with a top to see if it's eating a lot of memory, and also watch with a dmesg to watch for any disk errors
[00:30] <daf_> Sagaci I don't want to install any "server" stuff either. I just want the bare minimum so I can add only what I want but don't want to use a network install
[00:30] <joosengee> someone can tell me?
[00:30] <binod> when i installed nvidia graphics card  and broadcom 802.11  driver in ubuntu 9.10 , my computer could not boot. only some blink appeared  . i am going to reinstall it agian. what are the  precautions i have to take to get rid of it. i want to  install both  grapchis card driver and broadcom driver  into my computer.
[00:30] <eeepc__> anyone have experience with triple booting xp, osx, and *nix? which order is best,
[00:30] <m0se5> how can I install ubuntu desktop 9.10 on a PC on the other side of the county? I have ssh access to the live cd.
[00:30] <penguin42> m0se5: What's the other PC running?
[00:31] <Mathias90> penguin42 > Does it change anything that Im using af live disc?
[00:31] <n8tuser> m0se5-> netbootin is one, the remote end has windows or linux?
[00:31] <daf_> eeepc__ xp osx linux
[00:31] <ZykoticK9> eeepc__, on apple hardware?  is there an apple channel?  might be better to ask there.
[00:31] <m0se5> penguin42, broken ubuntu 8.04
[00:31] <wolf23> somebody help!
[00:31] <SporkWitch> Mefached: is the desktop running *nix or *doze?
[00:31] <mrwes> m0se5, maybe ssh -X xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -- tunneling X
[00:31] <penguin42> Mathias90: If it's short of RAM then it might, again try watching for RAM usage
[00:31] <IndyGunFreak> binod: i doubt one is related to the other
[00:31] <penguin42> m0se5: I think in principal you should be able to upgrade - the thing is if there's any problem then you won't be able to fix it
[00:31] <Mefached> SporkWitch, everything I own runs *nix exclusively, although the desktop runs XP when my family is on it. (Dual boot.)
[00:31] <IndyGunFreak> binod: i'm using the nvidia driver on my desktop no problem
[00:32] <homanj> /exit
[00:32] <egoTripper88> is there an enhanced edited version for Ubuntu
[00:32] <SporkWitch> Mefached: was just gonna suggest using ICS until you pick up a router; not like they're expensive, and it's probably not worth the headache of figuring out the spoof when a simple stop-gap solution exists
[00:32] <eeepc__> daf_, ty I thought it would be that way but am not familiar with osx bootloader and how finiky it is
[00:32] <binod> IndyGunFreak:  but mine is laptop. i faced that problem. what shall i do now?
[00:32] <Mefached> SporkWitch, ICS? Networking is significantly my weakest field, knowledge-wise.
[00:32] <wolf23> why gfceu works fine with sound on ubuntu 9.04 , and now i try it on ubuntu 9.10 works fine without sound,and if i activate the sound it freezes? plz help
[00:32] <m0se5> mrwes, penguin42, Thanks. I'll try tunnelling X
[00:33] <Xgates> hey guys gdm is gettng messed up and then no starting and you try to purge or reinstall it, not working, what gives? NEED HELP on this PLESE
[00:33] <hylian> fyi, the best way to get a ntfs partition to mount on boot is to install ntfs-config.
[00:33] <Xgates> PLEASE
[00:33] <hylian> thanx though
[00:33] <eeepc__> ZykoticK9, no i am installing on an eeepc
[00:33] <SporkWitch> Mefached: Internet Connection Sharing; basically, it lets your windows OS behave like a router
[00:33] <SporkWitch> Mefached: i wouldn't use it for gaming`, but it'll get you online from the laptop
[00:33] <IndyGunFreak> binod: well, install one, reboot and see if it causes a problem.. fi it doesn't, install the other.. how are yo installing the broadcom driver?
[00:33] <daf_> eeepc__ ive done it. I used a bootloader program and I can't remember the name of it but it was a windows program if I remember
[00:33] <hylian> Xgates: need help dude?
[00:33] <MrNaz_studio> Xgates are you using JFS ?
[00:33] <SporkWitch> Mefached: i'm sure there are *nix equivelents, i just don't know any off the top of my head
[00:33] <Mefached> SporkWitch, the desktop only has one Ethernet port, and it has no Wifi card, so I don't see how that could work.
[00:33] <ZykoticK9> eeepc__, best of luck then.  sorry i can't help ya.
[00:33] <SporkWitch> Mefached: ahh, fair enough then
[00:33] <Xgates> It's not me some guys I'm helping
[00:34] <Mefached> SporkWitch, I use Internet Connection Sharing to connect my Windows Mobile smartphone to my Ubuntu 9.04 laptop, so I know how it works a bit.
[00:34] <daf_> eeepc__ try this http://blog.gnist.org/article.php?story=triple-boot-osx-ubuntu-vista
[00:34] <BubbaT> Hey I tried to install a "live" Mint with unetbootin on my hd. When I boot I get a bunch of directory scans, then "Error cannot find GRLDR".
[00:34] <binod> IndyGunFreak:  i am installing it by activating the  external hard-drive option.
[00:34] <Flannel> !mintsupport | BubbaT
[00:34] <hylian> Xgates: I am half a noob myself, but i have done a lot fo work with ubnutu in the past 3 years
[00:34] <MrNaz_studio> Xgates its kind of dumb to be asking questions in here without the computer available, how can we help you if you cant tell us whats wrong? "gdm is broken" is not enough info to do anything
[00:34] <Mathias90> penguin42 > Actually there have been some parity problems with my RAM. I've run a Memtest, which found 1 error. I'm waiting for the manufactor to send me a new RAM.
[00:34] <SporkWitch> Mefached: yeah, basically the same thing, yup; just high-ish latency, since windows is hardly known for great networking code in the first place, and it's exacerbated when you try to make it behave like a router
[00:34] <IndyGunFreak> binod: external hard drive option?
[00:35] <Mathias90> So that's probably the problem..
[00:35] <penguin42> Mathias90: NOW you mention that! OK, go to sleep, the movies, whatever, but don't try creating a filesystem with bad ram
[00:35] <Mefached> SporkWitch, I sit on IRC and Pidgin all day anyway. High latency wouldn't (and doesn't) bother me.
[00:35] <Xgates> MrNaz_studio: http://pastebin.com/d7b06b46b
[00:35] <Xgates> hylian: http://pastebin.com/d7b06b46b
[00:35] <LinuX2half> sounds not working in karmic
[00:35] <hylian> Xgates: have you ctrl-alt f4'd it and then used gdm restart? does it give you an error
[00:35] <b0w> hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it
[00:35] <ayman> j /#linuxac
[00:35] <ayman> j/ #linuxac
[00:35] <derek_smart> Hello could someone redirect me to the ubuntu main channel PLOX
[00:36] <SporkWitch> Mefached: hey, i just gotta give the disclaimer; makes me tear my hair out when i see all these noobs in games that blame lag for a poor framerate (caused by their crappy hardware and too-high settings), and blame lag on the server when it's really their connection or computer iteslf
[00:36] <Mathias90> penguin42 > Ehhh. It's damn late here. You seriously can't expect me to use the brain..
[00:36] <eeepc__> daf_, yeah that seems on par with all the tutorials i found that install on mac hardware.  That tutorial starts with osx on a full partition then splits and installs vista
[00:36] <joosengee> I use acer travelmate 6292 , the karmic work good.
[00:36] <derek_smart> i mean general discussion channel
[00:36] <Mathias90> at this time at least.
[00:36] <ayman> #linuxac
[00:36] <bazhang> derek_smart, this is it
[00:36] <penguin42> Mathias90: OK :-) Sleep then!  seriously, you aren't going to get far with bad ram
[00:36] <Xgates> hylian: It's not me, someone I'm helping, when they said they installed gdm they said it never working so I had them run ---> aptitude purge and reinstall but now it won't reinstall back in
[00:36] <derek_smart> no this is help channel
[00:36] <b0w> hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it
[00:36] <Mefached> SporkWitch, I'm an emulator-only gamer myself, and the only multiplayer I play is online Pokemon and some occasional OpenArena. I know what you mean, and that's why I don't game.
[00:37] <ayman> j / #linuxac
[00:37] <VCoolio> ayman: try this: /j #linuxac
[00:37] <derek_smart> i mean ubuntu general discussion or something
[00:37] <bazhang> derek_smart, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[00:37] <emma> There are a ridiculous number of Radio Shacks in New York City. Like every 10 blocks there is a radio shack
[00:37] <SporkWitch> Mefached: lol; my main one is EVE Online which, luckily, runs happily in WINE / cidega, for most people; but first things first, i need to make this damnable thing see my wireless NIC
[00:37] <Xgates> hylian: that's the pastebin url I gave you showing a Exec format error like a script problem
[00:37] <eeepc__> daf_, i currently triple boot xp, slack, and ubuntu.  so xp came first in this instance just not sure if i start from scratch who goes first
[00:37] <hylian> Xgates: did they first do sudo apt-get update?
[00:37] <Mathias90> penguin42 > I was about to hook at boot cd into my other laptop, but I couldn't find the darn charger!
[00:37] <trampel> emma:  s/radio shack/the shack/   ;)
[00:37] <ayman> thanks sir
[00:37] <Mefached> SporkWitch, is there not a Linux client for EVE? Last I checked, there was.
[00:37] <b0w> hello!!! anyone know about an issue when installing restricted extras? when i do it i get a black screen and i only can see the cursor, i had to make a clean install again to fix it
[00:38] <VCoolio> ayman: all irc commands start with /, als the rest is chat
[00:38] <emma> hehe yeah that's on their door now 'the shack'
[00:38] <SporkWitch> Mefached: deprecated; they dropped official support with the march expansion due to lack of interest.  they now only maintain the mac and linux clients, but it always ran fine in WINE before, and continues to
[00:38] <SporkWitch> *mac and windows
[00:38] <penguin42> b0w: My guess is the restricted extras is installing a device driver for something that it doesn't like
[00:38] <Mefached> SporkWitch, well, that's good. Never was into MMOs, but I did play EVE for a little bit.
[00:39] <trampel> emma:  it's cuz the youngones don't know what a radio is ...thinks ratshack marketing (they might be right)
[00:39] <Mathias90> Anyway. I better go to sleep anyway. Thanks for helping me out.
[00:39] <ayman> ok
[00:39] <ayman> sir
[00:39] <SporkWitch> Mefached: i somehow found myself becoming a director in one of the top 40 alliances lol
[00:39] <daf_> No need to rebuild. Just dump whichever *nx you are replacing. the main thing is xp first simply because it screws up the boot loader
[00:39] <b0w> penguin42: yeah i thought so, but by any chance you know wich drivers on the restricyted extras is causing something like that?
[00:39] <ayman> can me ask u
[00:39] <daf_> eeepc__ ^
[00:39] <Xgates> hylian: ok having him run an update to see if it fixes
[00:39] <hylian> Xgates: from what i got from a quick google, it looks like one of the files, in this case gdm, was somehow trashed, probably by a crash..
[00:39] <Mefached> SporkWitch, do you know if there are any cheap routers on which it would be easy to spoof a MAC address? I don't have money to spend on anything >$50. (Maybe a little higher.)
[00:39] <emma> trampel, a good point.
[00:39] <ayman> iam needed help for ubuntu 9.10
[00:39] <Xgates> hylian: no updates for the system update didn't do anything
[00:39] <SporkWitch> rampel: what are these "VHS" you speak of? O.o
[00:39] <penguin42> b0w: I don't know, I don't have it myself - I'd guess graphics driver
[00:39] <daf_> eeepc__ osx is "similar" to linux.
[00:39] <aquachica> Hi. I am having trouble with my audio, in 9.10. I do not have any hardware showing in my Sound Preferences. Is there a way to fix this?
[00:39] <binod> IndyGunFreak:   i just  forget tha option but there is one option in application... then ... hardware...,i could not exactly recall  it ... i was doing it takinf help from internet... after clicking button i got 3-4 drivers .... those were nvidia grapchis card , broad com and others. i just activated those driver and got installed. after installing it mine laptop could not open
[00:40] <SporkWitch> Mefached: any linksys or netgear should have it right in the settings
[00:40] <SporkWitch> they're usually 30 bucks (US)
[00:40] <eeepc__> daf_, yeah based off darwin if i remember correctly
[00:40] <LinuX2half> Why there's no sound in karmic and I've turned everything up
[00:40] <b0w> penguin42: yeah well ill give it another try thank you
[00:40] <LinuX2half> I just upgrade my ubuntu version using update manager
[00:40] <IndyGunFreak> binod: was that 9.04, or 9.10?
[00:40] <aquachica> I have the same issues LinuX2half .
[00:40] <hylian> Xgate: Have them do a apt-get uninstall gdm. then reinstall. we need to have it re get the file, i think. this is a little over my head, but that's the best help i can offer
[00:40] <binod> IndyGunFreak:   9.10
[00:40] <LinuX2half> aquachica: Cheers
[00:41] <Jester05> ctmjr, did you say that you downloaded an alpha version or was it actual release. 190 was released 10-27
[00:41] <Xgates> hylian: I read this might help --->  replacing the postrm and the postinst scripts of the offending packages, with a script that does nothing, then 'dpkg --purge' them to get rid of the packages, then re-install the packages.
[00:41] <blaz_> hi, i'm trying to configure keyboard, but dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does nothing. is that normal?
[00:41] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Have you checked in the Sound Preferences to see if you have any hardware available?
[00:41] <hylian> Xgates: sounds like you read the same article i did
[00:41] <LinuX2half> aquachica: yes I did and there's only one
[00:41] <Xgates> hylian: where are those scripts located for gdm?
[00:42] <IndyGunFreak> binod: i dunno, do you have non-wireless internet access...?
[00:42] <LinuX2half> aquachica: specifically is internal audio
[00:42] <ctmjr> Jester05: the stable one
[00:42] <aquachica> LinuX2half: I do not have any.
[00:42] <binod_> IndyGunFreak:   i  have that only ... during installtion i did it from  cable internet
[00:42] <wirechief> blaz_ i dont think that is used anymore,  X -configure is the new way
[00:42] <LinuX2half> aquachica: well that means that its not detected
[00:42] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Supposedly, you should be able to find a huge list.
[00:42] <nutzer> hello
[00:42] <IndyGunFreak> binod_: ok, which broadcom device do you have, do you know?
[00:42] <aquachica> LinuX2half: The funny thing is that my audio was working before.
[00:43] <hylian> Xgates: i am afraid i have no idea. that's why i suggested you use app-get. or you could try dpkg--restore, but i don't know where the scripts reside
[00:43] <LinuX2half> aquachica: Yeah, mine too before I upgrade it
[00:43] <binod_> mine hardward is broadcom 802.11
[00:43] <blaz_> wirechief: what does it do? will it overwrite my xorg.conf ?
[00:43] <Xgates> hylian: what just run ---> sudo dpkg --restore
[00:43] <ctmjr> Jester05: this one http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.42.html
[00:43] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Sorry to say, but I am not liking 9.10.  I think 9.04 was better.
[00:43] <binod_> IndyGunFreak:   mine hardware is broadcom 802.11
[00:43] <Jester05> ctmjr, alright.. thanks for your help :) .. gotta go install this thing the ol fashion way lol killin X
[00:43] <wirechief> blaz_ i dont think xorg.conf is used any more in /etc/X11
[00:43] <LinuX2half> aquachica: AND even before THAT, when I first install Ubuntu, the sound doesn't work too
[00:43] <hylian> Xgates except for the space, just sudo dpkg--restore, all together
[00:43] <Jester05> ctmjr, I'll be back lol
[00:44] <Xgates> k
[00:44] <Mefached> aquachica, that seems to be what everyone's saying. Personally, I'm still using 8.04 on my desktop and 8.10 on my laptop. They work fine.
[00:44] <wirechief> blaz_ it creates a file in /home/user
[00:44] <LinuX2half> aquachica: well karmic solved my graphic problems
[00:44] <ctmjr> Jester05: ok good luck let me know how it goes
[00:44] <IndyGunFreak> binod_: 802.11 is the wireless protcol, what is the version of the broadcom car.. like 4311, 4312, etc
[00:44] <blaz_> wirechief: thanks! i'll try
[00:44] <D-coy> o/
[00:44] <LinuX2half> karmic: the videos isn't quite choppy anymore....
[00:44] <aquachica> Mefached: I might have to reinstall 9.04.  I really dislike the interface of 9.10.
[00:44] <Mefached> IndyGunFreak, all of the Broadcom 43xx cards have drivers, don't they?
[00:44] <binod_> IndyGunFreak:  i am sorry i dun know much about it
[00:44] <wirechief> blaz_  for more info check out x.org
[00:44] <hylian> Xgates, then you could use dpkg -install gdm.
[00:44] <Mefached> aquachica, what does it look like? I haven't tested 9.xx yet
[00:45] <binod_> IndyGunFreak:  i will try to see it now
[00:45] <JonTn> Hi everybody
[00:45] <IndyGunFreak> Mefached: supposed to... but i don't think they work *out of the box* w/ 9.10
[00:45] <Xgates> hylian: k
[00:45] <IndyGunFreak> binod_: lspci in a terminal will tell you what you want to know
[00:45] <awisgod> anyone feel like helping me getting conky to read a new config file so i can get it to do what i want?
[00:45] <wirechief> blaz_ you have to stop services for gdm and then restart after you reconfigure
[00:45] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Karmic is a little faster, but if that is all I am getting with all these issues, it isn't worth it.
[00:45] <Mefached> IndyGunFreak, they don't work out of the box with anything, but if you get a direct connection, it'll suggest the right drivers for you from the GUI
[00:45] <Xgates> hylian: someone said sudo dpkg--restore isn't a valid command
[00:45] <hylian> if anyone has a better idea on how to replace damaged script files from apt-get or dpkg, please tell Xgates
[00:45] <binod_> IndyGunFreak:  i am using windows in same device since mine linux is not working
[00:46] <IndyGunFreak> Mefached: again, if what everyone has said today, broadcmo isn't in the restricted driver w/ 9.10
[00:46] <aquachica> Mefached: It not has a list for you to select your name and password, and the icons make everything vague.
[00:46] <Xgates> hylian: sudo: dpkg--restore: command not found
[00:46] <Mefached> IndyGunFreak, really? That's no good.
[00:46] <Mefached> aquachica, GDM and icons are easy fixes, though.
[00:46] <toot> My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem?
[00:46] <binod> IndyGunFreak:  can you suggest me how can i install it?
[00:46] <hylian> Xgates: sorry man, i use damn small linux too, and on it dpkg--restore is a viable command
[00:46] <blaz_> wirechief: it looks like i need to kill X first, X -configure it says "Server is already active for display 0"
[00:46] <strywgr> why im having unsupported command on empathy :/
[00:47] <Xgates> hylian: not here it is
[00:47] <strywgr> while im trying to identify my nick :o
[00:47] <aquachica> Mefached: Well, I dislike the fact that someone can scroll through a list of users on 9.10 at start up.
[00:47] <Mefached> IndyGunFreak, there's some manual compilation that can be done for broadcom 43xx cards too.
[00:47] <IndyGunFreak> binod: yeah, gimme a sec, io'm gonna get my dart board, and set it up w/ some answers, then i'll give you one of them.. i dont' know what device you have, how the hell do you expect me to help you
[00:47] <hylian> Xgates: yeah i see that now... one sec, ill brb
[00:47] <Mefached> aquachica, changing that behavior can be changed in Preferences in less than a minute.
[00:47] <lordganesh> how to disable splash screen????????
[00:47] <IndyGunFreak> Mefached: i know.
[00:47] <aquachica> Mefached: Plus, the Newtwork Connections and Manger do not display a broadcast list.
[00:47] <blaz_> wirechief: i don't use gdm, just plainold startx, ok let me try...
[00:48] <LinuX2half> aquachica: well not really, have you try to hear the sound using a headphone?
[00:48] <wirechief> blaz_ xorg.conf.new gets created in /home/user when you run the X -configure but youll need to stop gdm services first while in a vt then when its done you restart sudo services gdm start
[00:48] <aquachica> LinuX2half: I had sound before I started fixing my wireless connection. Once I fixed that, the sound left.
[00:48] <wirechief> blaz_ all that stuff has changed with 9.10
[00:48] <hylian> Xgates: for ubuntu it's apt-get repair, same thing, kinda
[00:48] <Xgates> k
[00:49] <nelson8874> hello everybody
[00:49] <Mefached> IndyGunFreak, I see no reason to shield new users from simple compilation fixes, to be honest.
[00:49] <IndyGunFreak> aquachica: what did you do to fix your wireless, that scrweed up your sound, thats pretty interesting
[00:49] <hylian> hello nelson
[00:49] <Alca7raz> i just upgraded a laptop of mine to 9.10 and just manually upgraded to ext4 following this guide: http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-upgrade-from-ext3-to-ext4-without-formatting-the-hard-disk/2009/04/21 on the step where it has me update grub i get
[00:49] <Alca7raz> grub-probe:  error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub.
[00:49] <Alca7raz> No path or device is specified
[00:49] <IndyGunFreak> Mefached: i don't either, but he's yet to tell me which broadcom device he has, to even give him a general idea of an FAQ to follow...
[00:49] <lordganesh> how to disable splash screen
[00:49] <webbb82> i just did a fresh install and everytime i go to add a ppa and key the key cant be found from server
[00:49] <LinuX2half> aquachica: hm, thats weird, maybe you could using the recovery console.
[00:49] <lachouffe> hi , Is there any AWK specialist here ?
[00:49] <m1dlg> This is the first time I've had a very successful upgrade from one version to another an I'm pleased with it. the machine flys now :)
[00:49] <IndyGunFreak> if he can't do that, i'm not gonna bother trying to answer him any further, i've asked him 3x, and he's not responded
[00:50] <Bob_Dole> So, uh, I just upgraded my computer to karmic...and it's no longer connecting(or listing in the gui) my integrated NIC.
[00:50] <Bob_Dole> Thank god for multiple computers Dx
[00:50] <shakaran> hi, Is Ubuntu Lucid enabled for dist-upgrade?
[00:50] <nelson8874> i've been trying to install the ubuntu 9.10, but i can't. I get a black screen saying Out Of Range
[00:50] <nelson8874> any help?
[00:50] <bazhang> shakaran, no
[00:50] <Mefached> Seems like a lot of 9.10 complaints in here tonight. Perhaps a premature release?
[00:50] <IndyGunFreak> nelson8874: alternate install cd
[00:50] <strywgr> anyone here using empathy?
[00:50] <m1dlg> !ask
[00:50] <toot> My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem?
[00:50] <IndyGunFreak> Mefached: no, this is pretty normal right after a new release...
[00:50] <wirechief> nelson8874 use X -configure
[00:50] <strywgr> !empathy
[00:50] <shakaran> bazhang: I see on launchpad some package with lucid changelog
[00:51] <SporkWitch> nelson8874: easy, find a setting to force a resolution; it's not correctly detecting your monitor's max resolution, and it can't display the resolution it's trying to output
[00:51] <Xgates> hylian:  repair isn't valid
[00:51] <webbb82> whats the command to automaticly download all the ppa keys at once that are missing
[00:51] <aquachica> IndyGunFreak: I went to the Hardware Drivers to see what was there.  I also tried a command in Alt + F2, that I am trying to remember.
[00:51] <Bob_Dole> Oh hey, another reboot and it connected.
[00:51] <jasmuz> Guys im running karmic, with ATI FOSS driver and have broken TTY, any ideas on fixing them?
[00:51] <hylian> Xgates: the command isn't, or did apt-get puke?
[00:51] <aquachica> IndyGunFreak: It was something I found on one of the Ubuntu forums on how to fix the wireless connection.
[00:51] <Xgates> hylian: it's not a valid cmd
[00:51] <webbb82> W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220
[00:51] <lordganesh> splash screen!
[00:51] <hylian> Xgates: but i use it all the time, one sec
[00:52] <IndyGunFreak> aquachica: no disrespect, but i have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.
[00:52] <lachouffe> hi , Is there any AWK specialist here ?
[00:52] <IndyGunFreak> webbb82: what repositories have you added to your source list?. you need to add the gpg key
[00:52] <Bob_Dole> For some reason... I have to reboot several times to get things a single reboot should fix, to work, quite often. :/
[00:52] <jasmuz> Guys im running karmic, with ATI FOSS driver and have broken TTY, any ideas on fixing them????
[00:52] <Xgates> hylian: you sure? ---> sudo apt-get repair?
[00:53] <toot> My archive mounter, when mounting a .iso, will have a ;1 behind every file. It's driving me insane. How do i fix this problem?
[00:53] <hylian> Xgates: no im thinking of yet another distro, sorry, it's sudo apt-get install -f
[00:53] <nelson8874> sporkwitch: how do i do that? i'm sorry but this is , well, the third time i'm instaling ubuntu. i'm pretty new to this...
[00:53] <webbb82>  http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release:NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220
[00:53] <lachouffe> how can i print line which is 5 lines before the pattern with AWK ?
[00:53] <webbb82> everyime it goes to request key it says timed out
[00:53] <LinuX2half> aquachica: hey I solved it
[00:53] <aquachica> IndyGunFreak: First, I was trying to get my wireless connection to work because the Network Connection was only showing "wlan0", "eth0", and "lo".  I was hoping to change it so that it would show the broadcasts, so I went to the Ubuntu forums to find something that would work.
[00:53] <Xgates> hylian: yeah I know that one, ok just run that is all?  ---->   sudo apt-get install -f
[00:54] <aquachica> LinuX2half: What was the solution?
[00:54] <SporkWitch> nelson8874: no idea, this is my first time trying ubuntu, have always used Gentoo before; i just know what your symptoms indicate, and that is that it's trying to output a resolution your monitor can't support
[00:54] <wirechief> for issues with xserver and getting a visible desktop review this help : http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQ
[00:54] <Xgates> hylian: that's just a FORCE cmd if the script if foobard that will not work
[00:54] <hylian> Xgates: yeah, unless you already sudo su'd. (ubuntu'ers really hate that, but i do it all the time, naughty naughty)
[00:54] <SporkWitch> aquachica: don't suppose you know of a way to force it to see wlan0? heh; the problem i'm having right now is that it doesn't see my wifi at all
[00:54] <IndyGunFreak> nelson8874: i would suggest the alternate install CD, but thats just me
[00:54] <Xgates> hylian: what?
[00:54] <shadowtrk> Help: wubi grub wont load ubuntu but failsafe loads fine and i can start gdm
[00:55] <bazhang> xgates that is the fix broken command
[00:55] <LinuX2half> aquachica: well the solution anyway works for me but I have no idea if it'll work for you so....listen carefully
[00:55] <dassouki> is there a way to force apt-get to reinstall a package ?
[00:55] <aquachica> IndyGunFreak: I found a command that was supposed to work.  I entered it, but it did not work.  I did find, in the Preferences, the Networks Connections where I could adjust my connections.
[00:55] <IndyGunFreak> aquachica: listen to LinuX2half he seems to have solved your issue
[00:55] <{aaron}> hi guys, i have a weird problem.  i just installed an ubuntu machine at a remote location.  i came back home and could connect via ssh.  now, for some reason, i cannot connect, but my existing session still works.  i don't want to close my existing session.  what do you suggest for determining the cause?
[00:55] <Wik> how long is the loading bar supposed to take
[00:55] <{aaron}> ssh is up and i can log in to local host
[00:55] <hylian> Xgates: dam, im sorry man. i know there is a command to repair and check damages scripts, which is what you need, but i am drawing a bank, i guess i play with too many distro's, brb
[00:55] <wirechief> dassouki you can use force i would look in man apt
[00:55] <Wik> installing ubuntu 9.1
[00:55] <LinuX2half> aquachica: Go to Sound Preference --> Output ---> Connector --> Choose Analog Output / No Amphlifier
[00:56] <jeffreyf> Hello.  On 9.10 using Urban Terror.  Sound starts to go funky (broken up then completely out).  Then the computer freezes when i exit UT.  Any ideas?
[00:56] <Blizzerand> Wiki ; it 9.10
[00:56] <LinuX2half> aquachica: Then see if there's any sound
[00:56] <{aaron}> i'm afraid it's some weird problem w/ the cable modem (maybe it's thinks my connection are attacks??)
[00:56] <epinky> bye guys
[00:56] <aquachica> SporkWitch: I right clicked on the connection icon, clicked on Properties, and selected wlan0.  I connected once I did that.
[00:56] <wirechief> dassouki you can use force i would look in man apt if your using dpkg there is a force , again use man dpkg
[00:56] <nelson8874> how do i get the alternate cd? (i do not know what you mean :S
[00:56] <rance> can somebody help me write some code in python??????
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> nelson8874: its a text based installer for ubuntu(not a live CD)
[00:56] <gantrixx> I noticed that the 9.10 image says amd64.iso; will there be an x86_64.iso?
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | nelson8874
[00:56] <SporkWitch> aquachica: yeah, that's what i'm saying, it doesn't see the device itself, under that, network tools, etc.; it doesn't detect it at all
[00:57] <Flannel> gantrixx: AMD64 is for intel processors as well (much like i386 isn't just for *i*ntel)
[00:57] <Xgates> hylian: doesn't work same error cause script it hosed
[00:57] <SporkWitch> aquachica: it doesn't detect the NIC, haven't even gotten to trying to get it to see the network yet, heh
[00:57] <aquachica> LinuX2half: The only connector that I have is Dummy Output (Stereo).
[00:57] <KurtKraut> I've created a shell script (http://code.google.com/p/pomamonitor/) and I want to distribute it in a .deb file. How can I learn how to create a package for Ubuntu?
[00:57] <nelson8874> that seems to be to complicated to me...
[00:57] <strywgr> ;-)
[00:57] <Flannel> KurtKraut: #ubuntu-motu can help you out
[00:57] <smacktalk1> what's the command to see if a apache and php are running?
[00:57] <bazhang> rance try #python
[00:57] <KurtKraut> Flannel, thanks
[00:57] <psycho_oreos> smacktalk1, lsof -i for apache
[00:57] <sasalli> hello. i'm in treuble. i tried many ways but doesn't work! is there a proper way to get 3D support for my radeon X1800xt (r520 chipset) ? Please HELP!
[00:58] <nelson8874> are there a HOW TO...?
[00:58] <shadowtrk> help: wubi grub wont boot kernel(hangs)  but failsafe kernel will load fine?
[00:58] <Flannel> smacktalk1: ps aux | grep apache
[00:58] <SporkWitch> smacktalk1: open a terminal and, IIRC, the command is "top" to list running processes
[00:58] <dassouki> wirechief: thanks
[00:58] <rance> bazhang nobody talks in there lol and how do i join #python it says i have to be a member
[00:58] <penguin42> KurtKraut: There was a week of tutorials a few months ago on packaging etc - I can't remember the name though, they must have recordings
[00:58] <IndyGunFreak> nelson8874: its really not that hard
[00:58] <Flannel> smacktalk1: (PHP doesn't run constantly, it gets run by apache when its needed)
[00:58] <aquachica> SporkWitch: Have you gone to System > Preferences > Network Connections > Wireless and added you broadcast?
[00:58] <rance> bazhang i meant nobody talks in ##python
[00:58] <bazhang> !register | rance
[00:58] <KurtKraut> penguin42, I'll ask for the logs. Thanks.
[00:58] <rance> huh i have to register??
[00:59] <jeffreyf> Hello.  On 9.10 using Urban Terror.  Sound starts to go funky (broken up then completely out).  Then the computer freezes when i exit UT.  Any ideas?
[00:59] <hylian> Xgates: i now know why i thought repair was a valid command... http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/7770/. they list other commands that would act much like repair, if they ever implementnit. i hope that helps
[00:59] <Flannel> rance: Some channels are only available to registered IRC users (to cut down on spam) yeah.
[00:59] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Somehow, my computer only sees that Dummy Output.
[00:59] <SporkWitch> aquachica: ssid, yes, left bssid and mac address blank, i'm not running any security, just have broadcast disabled and use mac filtering on the router
[00:59] <LinuX2half> aquachica: run sudo alsa force-reload
[00:59] <IndyGunFreak> jeffreyf: i hd a problem like that, i can't say 100%, but I think the computer screensaver was trying to come on
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> i set the screensaver for 1hr, and never had the prob again
[01:00] <aquachica> okay
[01:00] <rance> !register
[01:00] <SporkWitch> aquachica: if i go to system -> administration -> network tools, it doesn't even list the device though, just eth0 and loopback
[01:00] <rance> flannel: how do i register?? do i click on tha link ??
[01:00] <hylian> Xgates: i know this is probably a very very second to third thousand thought in your head, but listing your problem with the brainstorm might make apt-get repair a reality.
[01:00] <smacktalk1>  lsof -i for apache   didn't work
[01:00] <Flannel> rance: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration will explain it
[01:00] <jeffreyf> IndyGunFreak: Nope, I just started it.  Screen saver wouldn't kick in for another 20 minutes
[01:01] <Xgates> hylian: well we need a fix now not later
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> jeffreyf: dunno
[01:01] <LinuX2half> aquachica: anything?
[01:01] <SporkWitch> aquachica: and i thought getting an ATI video card to work was frustrating, heh
[01:01] <hylian> Xgates: right, but that article lists ways of doing the same now, all be it not as easy, but they are listed there
[01:01] <aquachica> SporkWitch: That is one of the things I dislike about 9.10.  In 9.04, you had everything there. Now, you have to looking all over the place for it.  I am considering looking into using WICD.
[01:01] <Mefached> aquachica, you should install wicd the moment you boot anyway.
[01:02] <snuffy47> Looking for help getting permissions to edit files on my server using connect to server in ubuntu desktop
[01:02] <SporkWitch> aquachica: i normally use Gentoo, but for whatever reason, it can't find the cd-rom after it gets to X point in the boot sequence
[01:02] <aquachica> LinuX2half: I now have Hardware.  ^_^
[01:02] <zk> how do i send a kernel message? logger -p kern.warning     doesn't seem to work
[01:02] <aquachica> Mefached: Is that what you use?
[01:02] <cedriczg> Hi ubuntu community
[01:02] <SporkWitch> aquachica: i was gonna try ubuntu because i heard it was good about seeing wireless NICs on laptops >_<
[01:02] <LinuX2half> aquachica: okay now you have a hardware being detected so is there any sound?
[01:02] <rance> flannel so i have to register by typeing that and my password in this txt box where everybody can read it :/ ??
[01:02] <sasalli> 2.rep: hello. i'm in treuble. i tried many ways but doesn't work! is there a proper way to get 3D support for my radeon X1800xt (r520 chipset) ? Please HELP!
[01:03] <hylian> helo cedriczg
[01:03] <aquachica> SporkWitch: 9.04 worked really well.
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> SporkWitch: depending on the device, like everything else.. some work great, some not so great
[01:03] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Let me try.
[01:03] <cedriczg> hylian, Hi
[01:03] <hylian> Xgates, did you get my last reply?
[01:03] <cedriczg> hylian, I am looking for some help configuring the graphics to more than 800x600
[01:03] <SporkWitch> sasalli: if you find one, i commend you; ATI's linux drivers are horrid; i had that exact card and never managed it, i actually got better performance out of the on-board xpress 200 series graphics
[01:04] <chevelle> I have urgent question. Ubuntu warning in system tray says that my harddrive may fail me (bad sectors on it) and I need to know if ubuntu can fix it??
[01:04] <LinuX2half> aquachica: what kind of computer you're running? HP? Dell?
[01:04] <sasalli> hmm
[01:04] <aquachica> LinuX2half: I can hear!!!!! YAY!  ^_^
[01:04] <Xgates> hylian: I just want to find the postrm and the postinst scripts
[01:04] <Mefached> SporkWitch, my current desktop uses an XPress 200, it's horrible. Gaming on this machine is impossible. It doesn't give me problems either, though.
[01:04] <cedriczg> hylian, I have researched forums and tried with Xorg -configure and changing xorg.conf but no solution yet
[01:04] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Toshiba Satellite.
[01:04] <LinuX2half> Aquachica: Cheers Then :)
[01:04] <cedriczg> hylian, Can you help me?
[01:04] <sasalli> SporkWitch: Thanks!
[01:04] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Thank you!  ^_^
[01:04] <SporkWitch> chev: a low-level format might help, but bad sectors are a sign of the thing actually getting old and wearing out, usually
[01:04] <LinuX2half> Aquachica: Looks like we both got our problems solved
[01:05] <Mefached> aquachica, I don't use GNOME, so I don't use wicd, but back when I did, wicd was the best. It works quite well.
[01:05] <LinuX2half> Aquachica: No Problem :)
[01:05] <hylian> cedriczq, maybe. but i need a little more info than that, and im at best a lvl 2 noob
[01:05] <chevelle> ok
[01:05] <Mefached> aquachica, I do everything from a console now. Once I get wifi set up here, I may put wicd on my laptop.
[01:05] <SporkWitch> Mefached: the xpress 200 was damn decent when it came out, but it's more than 3 years old now, that's the problem, heh; it's better than the geforce 4 MX-series cards, though
[01:05] <aquachica> LinuX2half: Yeah.  I am so glad.  You should post that somewhere so that others can get their audio fixed.
[01:05] <imaginarybeads> upgraded to karmic, I can get skype to make sounds, but when I use the sound test service, I can't hear my message being played back. anyone have ideas?
[01:06] <snuffy47> Looking for help getting permissions to edit files on my server using connect to server in ubuntu desktop.  I can connect using this but when I try to create files or edit cfg files it denies me
[01:06] <SporkWitch> IndyGunFreak: it wasn't an attack on ubuntu, it's just frustrating, especially since it's realtek, which in my experience is about as generic as things get, normally if anything will work with something, it's the realtek components, heh
[01:06] <cedriczg> hylian, I would say I am also kind of noob. But two noobs may do better than only one ;)
[01:06] <aquachica> Mefached: I might end up going to wicd.  I really need to see the broadcasts available to me on the tray like 9.04.
[01:06] <LinuX2half> Aquachica: Well, its already posted online by someone else....
[01:06] <smacktalk1> :)so how would I start apache?
[01:06] <SporkWitch> aquachica, Mefached, what's WICD?
[01:06] <NineTeen67Comet> Hello all; I'm working on my father-in-law's Ubuntu comp from thousands of miles away. Mostly in cli but I do have remote desktop. His issue is that his all fat32 hdd is only writable from root. I've added him to users, made sure fstab includes defaults,users and still it is read only. Help?
[01:06] <hylian> cedriczg, yes. so do you have a graphics card driver installed?
[01:06] <cedriczg> hylian, I have been using ubuntu since 5.04 and you?
[01:06] <smacktalk1> I'm really trying to try out nagios
[01:06] <IndyGunFreak> SporkWitch: i understand, believe me.....
[01:07] <NineTeen67Comet> Oh, and I chmod 0775 to that entire shared directory ..
[01:07] <aquachica> SporkWitch: WICD is network program.
[01:07] <DasEi> snuffy47: you own the directory / have write permission there ?
[01:07] <Mefached> SporkWitch, wicd is a very nice gnome network manager. Probably the best.
[01:07] <boggieman> just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and sound, usb and touchpad do not work. Any help?
[01:07]  * NineTeen67Comet nagious kicked my butt .. still with I could figure it out ..
[01:07] <Flannel> rance: No, in a query with nickserv.  And make up another password, not your user account password.
[01:07] <hylian> cedriczg, since 7.04. but i have many ubuntu clients. computers that are 120 dollars cheaper are popular
[01:07] <SporkWitch> Mefached: would it resolve my issue of not even seeing the NIC? or is that just for AFTER you get the NIC itself working?
[01:07] <rance> wtf i dont even log on to get here i just click on an icon
[01:08] <cedriczg> hylian, Should I check that on system > administration > hardware drivers ?
[01:08] <snuffy47> I sign on using the root user name and pwd of the server
[01:08] <cedriczg> hylian, Interesting
[01:08] <aquachica> SporkWitch: wicd[dot]sourceforge[dot]net
[01:08] <Scunizi_> Is there a way to make an hfsplus formatted external usb drive read/write?  mount reports it's already rw but I can't copy to it even with sudo.
[01:08] <snuffy47> same user and pwd I use in terminal to edit files
[01:08] <Xgates> can someone please tell me where Ubuntu places the postrm and the postinst scripts?
[01:08] <offsense> any solution to fix hang desktop effect on karmic using intel 82945g??? hpl plzzz
[01:08] <offsense> any solution to fix hang desktop effect on karmic using intel 82945g??? hpl plzzz
[01:08] <DasEi> !who | snuffy47
[01:09] <hylian> cedriczg, yeah see first of you have a driver installed, that could actually be a problem, did you install a driver or are you using the open source multi driver that comes with ubuntu
[01:09] <DasEi> snuffy47: have you physical acces to the server ?
[01:09] <snuffy47> DasEi I do
[01:09] <cedriczg> hylian, Using the open source
[01:09] <penyuan> Is there anyway to do bluetooth sync with my cell phone (Sony Ericsson K660i) for Thunderbird contacts and calender?
[01:09] <cedriczg> hylian, no driver installed there
[01:09] <cedriczg> hylian, But I am stuck on 800x600 resolution
[01:09] <boggieman> Can anyone help in 9.10?
[01:09] <snuffy47> DasEi: hello
[01:10] <aquachica> boggieman: What's wrong?'
[01:10] <DasEi> snuffy47: try to own the dir to that user
[01:10] <hylian> cedriczg, ok, so what version are you using? do you have anything listed under system-preferences-display?
[01:10] <snuffy47> DasEi can I open a private dialog box?
[01:10] <DasEi> why ?
[01:10] <boggieman> no sound..no touchpad...no usb devices detected
[01:10] <rictec> mythbuntu
[01:10] <q0s> hey guys. i recently upgraded to karmic ... but in some windows all controls such as buttons are missing? where are they gone? ;)
[01:10] <snuffy47> how do I get the text to highlight you
[01:11] <smacktalk1> i don't see apache in the list when i issue the "top" command...how do I start apache?
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> snuffy47: prefix your sentence w/ the username
[01:11] <SporkWitch> aquachica: Mefached, IndyGunFreak: i'm feeling like a tool right now, i just stumbled across a toshiba-run site dedicated to linux support on their laptops lol
[01:11] <aquachica> boggieman: Wow.  I recently had my sound restored.
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:11] <snuffy47> w/ DasEi mmm
[01:11] <DasEi> snuffy: yep
[01:11] <boggieman> how?
[01:11] <cedriczg> hylian, I am using ubuntu 9.04 and on display I have 800x600 and lower resolutions
[01:11] <aquachica> SporkWitch: lol
[01:12] <Mefached> SporkWitch, occasionally, companies will do Linux support. Dell does, sometimes.
[01:12] <Jester05> ctmjr, bad news.. i put the new driver in but its still not detecting the other monitor.. :-\  any clue?
[01:12] <Mefached> The best Linux support is IRC, though. Always will be.
[01:12] <imaginarybeads> anyone got skype to work in 9.10? I can't get it to make a sound...
[01:12] <offsense> any solution to fix hang desktop effect on karmic using intel 82945g??? hpl plzzz
[01:12] <rictec> anyone here have vdpau on mythbuntu?
[01:12] <snuffy47> w/ DasEi:  U mean under home folder?
[01:12] <aquachica> boogie: Have you gone to System > Preferences > Sound  and checked to see if Ubuntu detects your hardware?
[01:12] <hylian> cedriczg, do you know what graphics card you have?
[01:13] <DasEi> snuffy: assuming you use the same user, "user" and want to write to /docs in the server, do a:  sudo chown -R user /docs
[01:13] <lolplz> !topic
[01:13] <DasEi> snuffy: on the server
[01:13] <cedriczg> hylian, I think so. Let me pasting my lspci command
[01:13] <SporkWitch> aquachica: Mefached: well, it remains to be seen whether it's of any use, but it's at least something, heh; unfortunately, this laptop isn't on the (10 model) list of "certified products" :(
[01:13] <boggieman> no devices to configure inside Sound Preference
[01:13] <Mefached> SporkWitch, that's a shame. Individual parts can be worked on, though. Google rocks.
[01:14] <lachouffe> how can i parse xml file in linux command line ?
[01:14] <ctmjr> Jester05: did you turn off the computer then hook up the second monitor?
[01:14] <cedriczg> hylian, http://pastebin.com/d71506aea
[01:14] <snuffy47> if I want it to write in all directories I would use  sudo chown -R user /   then
[01:14] <SporkWitch> Mefached: yeah, i'm trying to find the exact model number of the NIC
[01:14] <cedriczg> hylian, I think I have an ATI
[01:14] <cedriczg> hylian, under the VGA controller
[01:14] <aquachica> booggieman: Try using this code: sudo alsa force-reload
[01:14] <q0s> hey guys. i recently upgraded to karmic ... but in some windows all controls such as buttons are missing? where are they gone? ;)
[01:15] <boggieman> k
[01:15] <hylian> cedriczg, yes you do, give me a second, brb
[01:15] <snuffy47> w/ DasEi or is it better only to do the directories I need
[01:15] <cedriczg> hylian, ok, thanks
[01:15] <Ollonk> I just upgraded to karmic. awesome except I'm on a laptop and now my touchpad and mouse buttons don't work lol
[01:15] <aquachica> booggieman: Once I did that, I closed and reopened Sound Prerences.  In the Hardware Tab, my device was detected.
[01:16] <usser> lachouffe, i dont think there's pure command line parser, you can use perl or python though
[01:16] <boggieman> it says output info may be incomplete
[01:16] <aquachica> SporkWitch: Sorry to hear that.  :(
[01:16] <hugleo> how to reinstall cups to restore original configuration files?
[01:16] <Ollonk> lol Karmic has brought a flood of users to IRC?
[01:16] <rance94> channel #python says i need to be identified is that the same as registering
[01:16] <chowder> Ollonk: check your logs or try to rollback the drivers
[01:16] <usser> Ollonk, its always like that here :)
[01:16] <Ollonk> I have to say, much smoother transition than from 8.10 to 9.10
[01:16] <hylian> cedriczg, do you have a 64 bit version of 9.04, or are you 32 bit
[01:16] <chowder> *and
[01:17] <Ollonk> Yeah I was in here once trying to get help with usplash... good times heh
[01:17] <Jester05> ctmjr, hey sorry if i missed you.. PM me plz .. i could use help
[01:17] <cedriczg> hylian, 32 bit
[01:17] <chowder> does anyone know where Ubuntu keeps the script(s) responsible for mounting swap space?
[01:17] <oip> hi, quick question: how do you launch a terminal launching an application?
[01:17] <usser> chowder, theres no scripts responsible, its just one file /etc/fstab
[01:17] <cedriczg> hylian, and this is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m779ac626 it is as per the clean install
[01:17] <DasEi> snuffy: yes for the directories or even just the files you want to write to
[01:18] <Ollonk> oip: most usually you just open a terminal and then type the name of that application in the terminal
[01:18] <cedriczg> hylian, I suppose no configuration was done as there may be some driver or config missing
[01:18] <Jester05> Has anyone in here had any issues running ubuntu 9.10 64bit and nvidia drivers.  I'm trying to configure dual displays but it seems to not be detecting my second monitor in nvidia-settings.. PLZ help :)
[01:18] <Ollonk> what application are you trying to run?
[01:18] <packet-sent> my laptop making annoying strange chirping sound after upgrade even with volume muted
[01:18] <oip> Ollonk: yes
[01:18] <oip> but more specifically I want to start mplayer
[01:18] <oip> but with the terminal
[01:18] <snuffy47> what does this command do chmod a+rwx /
[01:18] <Ollonk> ah
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> Jester05: are you seeing the second monitor?
[01:19] <aquachica> packet-sent: Ubuntu 9.04 and up seems to do that when it boots.  I believe you need to turn off your PC speaker.
[01:19] <Ollonk> so no GUI or just with the error reporting?
[01:19] <snuffy47> w/ DasEi chmod a+rwx /
[01:19] <ai_> snuffy47: set permission to read write andexecute
[01:19] <chowder> usser: fstab is the file system table. On startup most UNIX-like OSes have some type of script that mounts the root partitions and whatnot. fstab is just a "place marker" if you will
[01:19] <xiambax> 777
[01:19] <xiambax> chmod YO!
[01:19] <DasEi> snuffy: assuming you use the same user, "user" and want to write to /docs in the server, do a:  sudo chown -R user /docs for the dir /docs
[01:19] <cedriczg> hylian, may some command like "xrandr --addmode S-video 1024x768" work?
[01:19] <Ollonk> query oip
[01:19] <packet-sent> aquachica: the sound does not appear to come from the speaker but from inside the case
[01:20] <Jester05> IndyGunFreak, no in nvidia-settings its acting almost as if theres only one connected.. however when u click configure to configure the card it is also only allowing me to select the sep. X option.. twinview is grayed out.. dunno if that would be whats causing the other monitor not to be scene or what tho
[01:20] <shiznebit> thays the system beep
[01:20] <SporkWitch> anyone used ndiswrapper?
[01:20] <sinthetek> i'm wanting to remotely dist-upgrade to karmic from jaunty. i've done it in the past but wondering if there are any tips or reasons not to with this release
[01:20] <snuffy47> Is there a turtorial with a good example of a simple samba confg
[01:20] <aquachica> packet-sent: Some desktops have small internal speakers for beeps and stuff. You might want to check and see if you computer has one.
[01:20] <nelson8874> i will try a live dvd, instead of the live cd. Maybe i will not get the black screen OUT OF RANGE....
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> Jester05: and you have the restricted driver enabled, right?
[01:20] <snuffy47> going to try permissions :)
[01:20] <hylian> cedriczg, maybe, i have been reading up on your graphics card, and it's only supported using the driver fglrx via ubuntu's pen source driver list. is fglrx installed, or i should ask, what driver is installedz/
[01:21] <juha> i just did a fresh install of 9.10 but no sound, any ideas ? ... Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[01:21] <MikeChelen> nelson8874: use the alternate install cd
[01:21] <hylian> cedriczg, sorry bad typing open source driver list
[01:21] <rictec> juha, no sound or sound to low?
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> juha: i read something about that.. something about pulse audio and some sound devices
[01:21] <trism> VCoolio: don't know if you're still having a problem, but I figured out why DISPLAY=:0.0 notify-send blah wasn't working, they moved the xauthority in karmic. So you either need to set $XAUTHORITY to it's currently location, or extract it to it's default location in .Xauthority, and then it will work again.
[01:21] <juha> no sound at all
[01:21] <Jester05> IndyGunFreak, yes.. i started out w/ 185 which gave me the same error, after talking to ctmjr I decided to update to 190 which is out stable via nvidia's site and i'm having the same issue
[01:21] <ctmjr> Jester05: i do not have pm enabled what happens if you just connect the second monitor by itself does it get detected
[01:22] <cedriczg> hylian, thanks I will check which drivers I have installed for fglrx
[01:22] <packet-sent> aquachica: good point it could be that which is casuing the issue unfortunatly this is a laptop and I dont think it possible to open case without destroying it (with my hammer hands anyways)
[01:22] <nelson8874> i'm new on linux. i will probably mess all the process on the alternate cd
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> nelson8874: its not that hard... did you download and burn it?
[01:22] <nelson8874> i do not understand a lot of the names and stuff
[01:22] <MikeChelen> nelson8874: the process is pretty much the same, it just text-based ;)
[01:22] <chessboxing> I'm using 9.10, I'm connected to my wireless ap. But whenb I go to, VPN-connections > configure VPN, the Add button is gray...
[01:22] <hylian> cedriczg, a fglrx driver will probably be visable at system-administration-hardware drivers
[01:22] <VCoolio> trism: it was solved by killing gnome-settings-daemon, which I didn't want running anyway; but thx very much for the headsup, I 'll keep that in mind
[01:23] <nelson8874> well, i will try it
[01:23] <awisgod> how do i make it so that all my HDD's are mounted automatically when i start up ubuntu?
[01:23] <usser> chessboxing, you need to install additional packages for network-manager vpn support
[01:23] <VCoolio> trism: but it also wasn't working with screen in jaunty the last few weeks
[01:23] <packet-sent> Its kinda making a hiss n chirping sound like tvs used to make when a valve is loose
[01:23] <aquachica> packet-sent: I know that my laptop makes a weird beep sound when Ubuntu starts up.  I think it is the way the OS initializes the speakers.  Perhaps, someone else has another opinion on it.
[01:24] <snuffy47> w/ DasEi that worked
[01:24] <nelson8874> i'm from portugal and now its 01:23 I wil download it through the night and will try install it tomorow
[01:24] <cedriczg> hylian, I have now installed the fglrx-modaliases
[01:24] <MikeChelen> awisgod: edit /etc/fstab or install the disk utility
[01:24] <chessboxing> usser: ok I'll seek
[01:24] <Lenin_Cat> how do I restart alsa-utils?
[01:24] <usser> chessboxing, network-manager-vpnc or network-manager-openvpn depending if you're connecting to cisco type vpn server or openvpn server
[01:24] <cedriczg> hylian, should I isntalle the restriceted ones?
[01:24] <overdub> juha, try uninstalling pulse audio, and install libsdl1.2debian-alsa < that worked for me
[01:24] <DasEi> snuffy: nice, don't need w/;; for more safety think about samba
[01:24] <rictec> nelson8874, its 1:24 actualy lol
[01:24] <Lenin_Cat> how do I restart alsa-utils?
[01:24] <cedriczg> hylian, like xorg-driver-fglrx ...
[01:24] <snuffy47> i am tring to setup samba
[01:24] <snuffy47> having alot of trouble
[01:25] <nelson8874> rictec: lol
[01:25] <DasEi> Lenin_Cat: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[01:25] <nelson8874> viva portugal! :)
[01:25] <hylian> cedriczg, ok, but was there anything else installed before that, becuase those should come out first then install the driver of your choice. and restruicted just means that canonical isn't the ones updating them, so if the people who are making.updating them stop, so does you support.
[01:25] <chessboxing> usser: yip worked ta
[01:25] <DasEi> !samba | snuffy47
[01:26] <herberth> hi, i have a problem with the ubuntu 9.10 liveCD in mi HP Pavilion DV2000
[01:26] <lordganesh> !splash
[01:26] <largepuma> what?
[01:26] <hylian> cedriczg, usually ubuntu will put a little (recommended) tag on one, i usually chose that one
[01:26] <cedriczg> hylian, no only the  fglrx-modaliases
[01:26] <rictec> herberth, what problem
[01:26] <awisgod> MikeChelen, will palimpsest disk utility work?
[01:26] <snuffy47> My eye hurt from reading
[01:26] <assoguerozen_sx> how can i know what mobo im using in linux?
[01:26] <usser> chessboxing, no problem
[01:26] <snuffy47> should I use swat I tried to use webmin this last time and failed misurably
[01:27] <DasEi> snuffy47 : it's also fine for linux, in the smb.conf you can restrict certain machines/users/dirs to have more security, also can use hostkeys or passwords
[01:27] <MikeChelen> awisgod: yeah that's what i meant by disk utility :)
[01:27] <penguin42> assoguerozen_sx: You might find it in the output of sudo dmidecode
[01:27] <herberth> when i insert the liveCD, the ubuntu logo is show, but, later i have a white.... black screen and nothing happen later
[01:27] <alexmonf> bonsoir!
[01:27] <assoguerozen_sx> penguin42 oky
[01:27] <snuffy47> currently have 2 linux machines and 2 windows machines with the linix server I am tring to setup
[01:27] <herberth> i try in a desktop pc, and a have no problem, it's only in my laptop :(
[01:27] <MikeChelen> herberth: try the alternate install cd
[01:28] <c0ld> what to u call the little sysmetric bar thats a graphical cool looking visual output of ur system performance?
[01:28] <Ollonk> where are logs stored from the upgrade/
[01:28] <Ollonk> ?
[01:28] <rictec> herberth, try some of the options on the live cd
[01:28] <hylian> cedriczg, one more thing. if you are using a driver, say, xorg.conf 2.etc etc etc (your kernel number) the i install everything with the same kernel number and version of my driver, but that may be just my fear of not having resources...
[01:28] <DasEi> herberth: can you go to console (ctrl-alt-F1) to check logs ? else try :
[01:28] <bazhang> conky c0ld
[01:28] <c0ld> tahnx
[01:28] <herberth> i can boot with the alternate cd??
[01:28] <DasEi> !bootoptions | herberth

[01:28] <DasEi> herberth: no boot in live in alternate
[01:28] <bazhang> c0ld, there is a great beginners guide at the forums
[01:29] <assoguerozen_sx> penguin42 thx alot
[01:29] <cedriczg> hylian, yes you are right. I also try always to install the recommended ones..
[01:29] <MikeChelen> c0ld: that is system monitor panel applet
[01:29] <herberth> ok
[01:29] <c0ld> ok
[01:29] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5436679 c0ld
[01:29] <hylian> cedriczg, well, i would do that, and when it completes reboot and see if you can notch up your screen resolution, (cross the fingers time)
[01:29] <rictec> herberth, try with a vesa option on the live cd
[01:29] <c0ld> I was just wondering what its name was .. wasnt familiar with it bazhang thanx
[01:30] <thepro> Any one know how to install TOR? I tried doing what the official site told me to do, but it didn't work
[01:30] <BoredKender> what is a good ALSA replacement volume app if one takes out pulse? i like having a visual volume bar when i use my remote for media center
[01:30] <juha> woah, bit too hectic here, i'll be in #bugs if anyone has a good idea on my sound issue   :-)

[01:31] <c0ld> thanx again baz
[01:31] <hylian> cedriczg, one other thing, installing python opengl stuff is a good idea for helping the gfx card use all of ubuntu's prettyness, like the chess game in 3d
[01:31] <thepro> Any one know how to install TOR? I tried doing what the official site told me, but it didn't work at all
[01:31] <hylian> cedriczg, hope to see you on the flip side
[01:31] <Wik> so i go to Install ubuntu and some white ubuntu icon comes up then disappears and it typs asfkdj
[01:31] <Blank__> thepro, TOR is pretty useless
[01:31] <Wik> or something
[01:31] <cedriczg> hylian, while I wait for packages to be downloaded I'll try to help on someone ;)
[01:31] <rictec> anyone here with vdpau enabled?
[01:31] <thepro> How come TOR is useless?
[01:31] <hylian> cedriczg, good show, good show!
[01:32] <cedriczg> hylian, will install python opengl as well then
[01:32] <DasEi> thepro: karmic ?
[01:32] <hylian> !python
[01:32] <Blank__> thepro, your packets may appear from an exit node, but who's to say that the exit node won't interfere with said packets
[01:32] <hylian> !opengl
[01:32] <Blank__> thepro, also, TOR is generally very slow
[01:32] <hylian> lol
[01:32] <Ollonk> one of the releases should definitely be Hegemonic Hippopotamus
[01:32] <thepro> Well TOR is the only way to use union networks

[01:35] <awisgod> MikeChelen, so do i like check mark the bootable box and press apply?
[01:35] <isaac_> With Ubuntu 9.10 out, I'm fairly certain there are more important questions than this, but I have to try.............. I installed Karmic to a USB flash drive.  How does one duplicate a flash drive install to another flash drive?  I want to be able to have multiple copies of Ubuntu on multiple flash drives without having to install every twiddly little program every time.  For reference, both drives are 8 gigabyte, and I've already partitioned the destinati
[01:35] <isaac_> on drive the same way Ubuntu installer partitioned the source flash drive, and put a boot flag on the ext4 home partition.
[01:36] <vladimir> wirechief, i tried it, seems like its already installed http://pastebin.com/mb39822
[01:36] <hylian> ohh yeah, i have heard form a couple of people that for right now the best way to get software is through apt-get or synaptic. (under syste-administration-synaptic package manager)
[01:36] <sxx> hylian:then it takes me to that site your system encountered a serious kernel problem thats all that keeps popping up

[01:37] <MikeChelen> awisgod: ok, it doesn't need to be bootable then
[01:37] <hylian> sxx, mikeee said thats a bug, and they are working on repairing it, can you still use ubuntu, or has the bug totally disrupted things
[01:37] <Alca7raz> i just upgraded grub on 9.10 and now im getting error 24 on boot
[01:37] <Xcell> lowlycoder-  with rythmbox you can controll how buch mix you want
[01:37] <wirechief> vladimir maybe multiuniverse needs to be enabled,  i installed it tonight with  apt-get install ssh
[01:37] <sxx> hylian:it keeps crashing and freezing
[01:37] <incluye> Big channel.
[01:37] <Will_Stout> hey, quick question,  if I run the upgrade to Karmic, will that overwrite a dead graphics driver?
[01:38] <incluye> Okay, I've just started out here.
[01:38] <awisgod> MikeChelen, ok thanks!
[01:38] <cedriczg> hylian, see you later. Will reboot now ;)
[01:38] <mikeee> u can still work on computer just ignor
[01:38] <incluye> I'm trying to enable Normal visual effects.
[01:38] <incluye> But it's unable to enable them.
[01:38] <Gnea> Will_Stout: upgrades will only overwrite what the system installed via .deb earlier, not third-party software
[01:38] <hylian> sxx, did you just upgrade to 9.10, and did the whole upgrade procedure complete without problems? (untill reboot ofcoarse)
[01:38] <isaac_> Ah well, I had to try...........
[01:38] <mikeee> just ignor it
[01:38] <wirechief> vladimir make sure to do apt-get update first
[01:38] <incluye> 9.10 on a 2008 iMac.
[01:38] <Will_Stout> ok, must remove that then..
[01:38] <hylian> cedriczg, good luck
[01:39] <Will_Stout> inclue: did you install any graphics drivers?
[01:39] <incluye> I tried.
[01:39] <Will_Stout> I know I used to have to before they discontinued mine...
[01:39] <losha> rictec: so make a backup first...
[01:39] <incluye> Can't run the ATI installer, though, because the character encoding is apparently wrong.
[01:39] <sxx> hylian:i installed a fresh install intsall went very smooth no probelms until i logged in for the first time then it crashed then that error appered
[01:39] <hylian> mikeee, how can you ignore it when he can't even boot. that's not even fixable, he can't even get to a prompt... how will that be reapired?
[01:40] <lordganesh> !boot
[01:40] <incluye> Specifically it's ati-driver-installer-9-10-x86.x86_64.run
[01:40] <hylian> sxx, ok, so you can get a promptZ?
[01:40] <rictec> losha, yep thats what i remotly doing
[01:40] <Jester05> Everyone, Thanks for your help w/ the monitor/nvidia situation.. as it turns out my dvi cable went bad.. somehow.. :-\  but I have it all figured out now.  Thanks again!
[01:40] <incluye> Oh, wait.
[01:40] <incluye> Wait.
[01:40] <incluye> o_O
[01:40] <doc-saintly> thanks, disk usage analyzer did it
[01:40] <mikeee> I wa able to ignor not advice for evertone
[01:40] <fencersbeatngu>  guys what about lubuntu???
[01:40] <sxx> hylian:i can get just past the grub menu then thats it freezes
[01:40] <Will_Stout> incluye: I'll poke around, see what I can find..
[01:40] <mikeee> u have speachael needs
[01:41] <incluye> How do I run a .run?
[01:41] <B3rz3rk3r> incluye, sh
[01:41] <incluye> Is that a command, or are you telling me to be quiet?
[01:41] <Jester05> incluye, sh (filename).run
[01:41] <incluye> Oh.
[01:41] <incluye> Okay, cool.
[01:41] <B3rz3rk3r> lol
[01:41] <Jester05> lol
[01:42] <jrib> incluye: that's probably not what you want.  What are you trying to install exactly?
[01:42] <Jester05> incluye, are you trying to install the nvidia driver?
[01:42] <incluye> ATI driver.
[01:42] <jrib> !ati > incluye
[01:42] <incluye> I also want Command to be Control on this keyboard.
[01:42] <mikeee> it does maney differant errors  u need for them to fix i only said what i said because for most u dont have to do anything others is problem
[01:42] <Will_Stout> incluye: have you been running it via command line?
[01:43] <hylian> sxx, to be honest, i hate to say i can't help someone. but there is no way to really troubleshoot a computer you can't even gain access too. if there is more to the error message, maybe. you have 2 possibilities, you could try a reinstall, but if it's hardware, you will get the same problem.
[01:43] <incluye> Running what?
[01:43] <ctmjr> Jester05: glad you figured it out
[01:43] <Will_Stout> I'm relatively new to linux, this says the driver installer must be launhed from command line
[01:43] <Jester05> ctmjr, yeah.. it was driving me freaking nuts.. I knew I knew what i was doing and it just didnt add up lol
[01:43] <Gnea> Will_Stout: what driver?
[01:43] <Will_Stout> incluye's having driver problems,
[01:44] <incluye> Wait, Will_Stout, I think I got it.
[01:44] <incluye> Using System > Hardware Drivers :/
[01:44] <r00to3> what does ctrl+alt F1 do?
[01:44] <Will_Stout> switch to console
[01:44] <KnifeySpooney> moves you to TTY1
[01:44] <incluye> Huh.
[01:44] <hylian> sxx, there is also a small chance that something is wrong with grub, i had this problem wqith 8.04, i would have to reinstall unbuntu every so often on a fresh install because grub had errors
[01:44] <Gnea> r00to3: it should switch you to the first console
[01:44] <incluye> Desktop effects still can't be enabled.
[01:44] <r00to3> how do i exit that?
[01:44] <incluye> I actually have the driver and have it activated.
[01:44] <Gnea> r00to3: ctrl-f7
[01:44] <KnifeySpooney> CTRL+ALT+F7 returns you to the display
[01:44] <Will_Stout> odd,
[01:44] <Gnea> r00to3: er, alt-f7
[01:44] <hugleo> Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd   /usr/sbin/cupsd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/cupsd: undefined symbol: _httpReadGNUTLS

[01:45] <r00to3> Thank you, i was stuck in it for about 10 mins
[01:45] <incluye> I have to restart first.
[01:45] <sxx> hylian:thank you for taking the time to help me. how would i know if its a hardware fault should i unistall 9.10 and install 9.04 to see if ti works it did run memtest when i bought my ram 3 days ago i left it on all night no errors.. it was running vista no problems
[01:45] <hugleo> Need I install/reinstall cupsys too?
[01:45] <KnifeySpooney> r00to3: If you ever get completely lost you could at least type "sudo reboot" and not force a hard reboot
[01:45] <snuffy47> is SWAT installed by default?
[01:46] <fbc-mx> How do I get single clicking in dialog boxes? I got it working in nautilus, but when a software opens a file dialog box it never single clicks.
[01:46] <Gnea> snuffy47: no

[01:46] <hylian> sxx, yes that, and i would unplug any usb devices not essential to the installment of ubuntu, (just keyboard, mouse if you can)
[01:46] <isaac_> How do you install Grub2 to a flash drive that has Ubuntu Karmic installed on it?
[01:47] <snuffy47> w/ Gnea should I install it an cofigure samba with it?
[01:47] <DIguana> How's the traffic on the apt servers right now? Should I wait a few days before updating to 9.10 or should I start it tonight?
[01:47] <sxx> hylian: thank you sir i will do that now fingers crossed and thank you once again, ps: ubuntu 9.10 is beautiful much better looking all round great job ^.^
[01:47] <snuffy47> w/Gnea: should I install it an cofigure samba with it?
[01:48] <hylian> sxx, i think so too, and gld to help
[01:48] <sxx> hylian:thank you once again ben
[01:48] <incluye> Hey!
[01:48] <incluye> It looks all pretty now!
[01:48] <incluye> Holy crap, I even have a Dock now.
[01:48] <hylian> yeah you ubuntu guys got it down pat on looks for 9.10
[01:49] <incluye> Gahaha, I love the way the windows move on Extra.
[01:49] <Jester05> incluye what'd you do?
[01:49] <incluye> Restarted.
[01:49] <incluye> That activated the driver.
[01:49] <porter1> Does anyone know how I could go about making the terminal that ubuntu starts with (printing messages from starting daemons) to allow me to log in, instead of just sitting there?
[01:50] <flaem> hello
[01:50] <hylian> porter1, are you talking about the plain ole' terminal?
[01:50] <DIguana> Anyone know of a page where I can get a good rundown of the changes between Jaunty and Karmic?
[01:51] <flaem> i've been playing around with 9.10 for a while and managed to remove some panel items
[01:51] <flaem> now i can't get them back :<
[01:51] <fbc-mx> How do I get single clicking in file dialog boxes? I got it working in nautilus, but when a software opens a file dialog box it never single clicks.
[01:51] <incluye> Can I get Command acting as Control?
[01:51] <incluye> I'm sure I can.
[01:51] <jrib> incluye: system -> preferences -> keyboard -> layout options can probably do it.  Otherwise, just use xmodmap
[01:52] <porter1> hylian, well, I want the kernel to run init and start the daemons I need, but I want the main terminal to start getty or whatever allows me to log in.
[01:52] <hylian> diguana, here is a nice article from digg, but maybe you wanted more specicfic? http://digg.com/linux_unix/What_s_New_in_Ubuntu_9_10
[01:52] <incluye> Layout options isn't here, jrib.
[01:52] <Jester05> does anyone know of any thing for gnome that would show my pc stats as part of my wallpaper .. set on top of my wallpaper?
[01:52] <osubuck> pidgin>empathy
[01:52] <incluye> Layouts is, tho--
[01:52] <incluye> wait.
[01:52] <jrib> incluye: that's from memory.  Look for something similar.
[01:52] <imgoofygoober> WIll my grub menu be alright after I update from 9.04 to 9.10?
[01:52] <flaem> imgoofygoober: yes
[01:53] <incluye> jrib, it actually is there.
[01:53] <hylian> porter1, thats over my head, sorry, i'ma  lvl 2 noob. (i have a lvl 3 challace of fire) LOL
[01:53] <porter1> :)
[01:53] <CavalierPrime> system > preferences > keyboard
[01:53] <incluye> No, that doesn't help me.
[01:53] <porter1> hylian, it's ok, maybe someone else might know then.
[01:53] <DIguana> hylian: That's the sort of thing I'm looking for. Thanks.
[01:53] <flaem> complete chaos..
[01:53] <Spoom> hi folks, after upgrade i'm not seeing application icons in the upper-left of every application; instead i see a generic grey circle, instead of the x-chat icon for the x-chat window, firefox icon for firefox, etc.; googling hasn't revealed anything specific so far and i just skimmed the release notes and didn't see it, any ideas?
[01:53] <Rp3> flashing caps lock = kernel panic correct?
[01:54] <hylian> diguana, glad to be of help
[01:54] <CavalierPrime> incluye:  you have an apple keyboard?
[01:54] <incluye> Indeed.
[01:54] <flaem> anyone who knows how i can restore the 9.10-specific panel items?
[01:54] <flaem> i can't find them in "Add to panel.."
[01:54] <CavalierPrime> incluye:  system > preferences >keyboard then select your model in the drop down
[01:54] <porter1> Does anyone know how I could go about making the terminal that ubuntu starts with (printing messages from starting daemons) to allow me to log in, instead of just sitting there? I'm working using a serial connection by the way.
[01:54] <Spoom> i'm thinking it's some sort of corrupt icon cache or something, but i have no idea where to go with this issue
[01:54] <Jester05> has there been anything new like widgets come out for gnome or is widgets it.. and if so have widgets gotten any better than what they were a few yrs back?
[01:54] <CavalierPrime> then layout options
[01:55] <osubuck> anyone else like pidgin more than empathy?
[01:55] <CavalierPrime> there you can change your ctrl key
[01:55] <aquachica> osubuck: I do.
[01:55] <IdleOne> !panels | flaem
[01:55] <cedriczg> hylian, Hi again. I had to apt-get remove the package from root terminal to be able to run again on graphical :(
[01:55] <jrib> incluye: like I said, use xmodmap if the particular setup you wan't isn't available there
[01:55] <matthew1> this may not be the place for it, but is there anything like Quicken for Ubuntu?
[01:55] <hylian> is my monitor supposed to be on fire with 9.10? lol
[01:55] <porter1> Jester05, there are some decent widget programs.
[01:55] <cedriczg> hylian, So I still need to keep on researching
[01:55] <osubuck> not a big deal but i think putting empathy instead of pidgin was a mistake
[01:55] <flaem> IdleOne: thanks :)
[01:55] <CavalierPrime> matthew1:  Homebank or GnuCash
[01:55] <incluye> Can someone give me an example of an xmodmap command?
[01:56] <matthew1> cavalierprime, thank you
[01:56] <aquachica> Ubuntu is coming close to making Microsoft mistakes.
[01:56] <CavalierPrime> np
[01:56] <Spoom> if anyone can link me to a bug report or give me a good search query for this issue i'd appreciate that too; like i said, i've searched around a fair bit already and haven't found anything
[01:56] <jrib> incluye: the examples section of ┬½ man xmodmap ┬╗ should have some
[01:56] <Jester05> porter1, whats a really stable one that would give me the ability to add an active HUD of my pc's status.. i need cpu, network, ram, hdd usages if possible
[01:56] <incluye> Yeah, it's just enormous and I don't really get it.
[01:56] <CavalierPrime> matthew1:  if you want a pro level item, try NolaPro too
[01:56] <incluye> Oh, wait.
[01:56] <incluye> This might do it.
[01:56] <incluye> "add"
[01:56] <jrib> incluye: so read only the examples section.  You asked for an example
[01:57] <hylian> cedriczg, i had the same problem with a ati x1300. i was hopiing you wouldnt.  i still got it to work, but i had to use synaptic to remove every ounce of the old drivers and then use the driver given to me from ati itself. i couldnt find one for the rage 128 pro
[01:57] <matthew1> excellent, CavalierPrime, I'll check them all out. Thanks again.
[01:57] <CavalierPrime> np
[01:57] <aquachica> Anyone out there having issues with their audio?
[01:57] <trampel> aquachica: hah!
[01:57] <cedriczg> hylian, So whcih would be the best way on how to know the driver I need?
[01:58] <jken146> Jester05: conky
[01:58] <cedriczg> hylian, Because trial is not the best solution :P
[01:58] <Jester05> man, i'm copying 185gigs of data from one esata to another.. freaking takes forever (~4hrs).. <15mbs :(
[01:58] <aquachica> tampel: At least with Karmic.
[01:59] <trampel> aquachica: my humble impression is:  "lots and lots" with karmic
[01:59] <hylian> cedriczg, i am not certain, i am studying that problem now. i did read about a ati rage mobility driver that is supposed to drive the rage pro as well, brb
[01:59] <aquachica> trampel: Karmic is just bad karma for Ubuntu.
[01:59] <cedriczg> hylian, Thanks a lot for your support. I appreciate it
[02:00] <trampel> aquachica: it's not been apparently 'stellar', no
[02:00] <cedriczg> hylian, I have been researching on my own. And I finnlay got here, as I supposed I would find someone like you to help me ;)
[02:00] <b0w> hello! i just added medibuntu to the repos, now how can i install them hehe?
[02:00] <Ceriand> I just upgraded to Karmic and now all of my videos look like they have the red and blue channels swapped
[02:00] <Ceriand> any ideas?
[02:00] <Ceriand> I've tried it in totem and mplayer
[02:01] <aquachica> trampel: All I wanted to do was get the newest version of Firefox. You would think that you could update particular software in the OS.
[02:01] <Will_Stout> try VLC and try new codecs
[02:01] <Will_Stout> that's all the comes to mind...
[02:01] <flaem> Ceriand: have you installed the restricted extras?
[02:01] <Ceriand> It goes away if I use gstreamer-properties and diable Xv
[02:01] <Ceriand> but uses a ton of CPU
[02:02] <flaem> as will said you're probably missing some codecs
[02:02] <Ceriand> I'm using the nvidia binary driver
[02:02] <Ceriand> it plays fine
[02:02] <millertimek1a2m3>  /ns identify bigbluehouse
[02:02] <Ceriand> the colors are just swapped
[02:02] <trampel> aquachica: well... some of us have being trying out firefox beta 3.5.5pre for some time.   but karmic did have some positive promise...
[02:02] <Will_Stout> Ceriand: maybe check the player settings?
[02:03] <Ceriand> Will_Stout: it goes away if I disable Xv, but uses a lot more CPU time
[02:04] <Lakota> Yo Yo Yo.
[02:04] <aquachica> trampel: When I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04, I didn't have nearly this many issues.  I really dislike this new Network Manager.
[02:04] <aquachica> trampel: And now my audio is all messed up.
[02:05] <hylian> cedriczg, ok so it looks like this is a common problem, you card is kinda special, it's a rage pro 128, but it's the ultra. this might help: http://omgili.com/jmp/.0rSU5LtMgyWCDEGm9YDpYfN1KqMTV.C4DId6jNJiMBGk4FuWRSKiUWPcKu2KW_QNaoKEWakVrTDasuDVoyqDq4fLywxG5lCcXTwNhecLmKSgIEORhmi8eO5tAqRDLQu5XGwuUoWF9f9g0hg24RqbLX0iIRPk.s0LcR_aLoVlqQvR.k0yH0onuCjEcYlZCB3rpCzKj2S8YXobfE4EIQNVA--
[02:05] <trampel> aquachica: yes indeed.  wait until you start to fight with pulseaudio and akonadi and the deprecation of hal and...
[02:06] <millertimek1a2m3> can anyone help me install visual editor for eclipse?
[02:06] <aquachica> trampel: I try reloading alsa audio, but it will not stick after reboot.
[02:06] <millertimek1a2m3> i'm having trouble I keep getting this error message
[02:06] <millertimek1a2m3> http://pastebin.com/m22d73dbb
[02:07] <cedriczg> hylian, cool. I think I can' t ask for a more specific help ;) Pitty this graphic card is "special" I will check that site and give it a try
[02:07] <randomusr> installed the kernel source with the goal of compiling with C++ compiler from intel. Unable to find the location of the source file. can someone help me?
[02:07] <cedriczg> hylian, thanks again
[02:07] <trampel> aquachica: you should be sure to purge all pulseaudio packages (except libpulse...) then install libsdl1.2debian-alsa (or whatever) then try rebooting.
[02:07] <hylian> millertimek1a2m3, you answered your own question, read lines 1-4, or maybe i missed what your trying to say, lines 1-4 of your pastebin
[02:07] <incluye> I can't get this to work.
[02:08] <hylian> cedriczg, sorry i couldn't help more
[02:08] <aquachica> trampel: Are there instructions on how to do that?
[02:08] <cedriczg> hylian, Bye for now. I will try it tomorrow as it's kind of late here for me now
[02:08] <cedriczg> hylian, You did help indeed
[02:08] <snuffy47> What is better to do use swat or webmin to config samba

[02:08] <millertimek1a2m3> hylian: yes but I'm not choosing to install either of those that it's talking about
[02:08] <hylian> cedriczg, ain't that the truth, LOL

[02:08] <poi77> Hi! I need to transfer large files from my Windows host to Ubuntu (100's of MBs). I would prefer to do this over the network. Is this possible?
[02:09] <aquachica> trampel: I am so considering reinstalling 9.04.
[02:09] <randomusr> installed the kernel source with the goal of compiling with C++ compiler from intel. Unable to find the location of the source file. can someone help me?
[02:09] <Ollonk> how do find the logs from the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[02:09] <hylian> millertimk1a2m3, you are updating, i am assuming, and one of those was installed, probably without your conecnt by synaptic or apt-get, or the install process.
[02:10] <millertimek1a2m3> omg i had no idea.. EMF wasn't necessary
[02:10] <mikeru> I have a sucky SiS671 video card. I'm going to buy a Nvidia 9400GT card. Is Ubuntu compatible with having 2 graphic cards at once? Or will it choose the integrated, sucky SIS?
[02:10] <trampel> aquachica: there is an abiding need among true linux'ers never to move backward
[02:10] <Ollonk> how do I get to logs from the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[02:10] <aishumoorthy> hi all!!

[02:12] <Lakota> I have a tough question. If I activate the NVIDIA drivers on my copy of Ubuntu 9.04, my monitor will say it is out of range. I have to plug in a crappy old monitor and deactivate the nvidia drivers to see my screen again. How can I prevent the NVIDIA drivers from using any other refresh rate then 60 hrz?
[02:12] <Ollonk> what's the command for driver manager?
[02:12] <Will_Stout> there isn't one,
[02:12] <Ollonk> (xubuntu, maybe it's a gnome thing)
[02:12] <trampel> aquachica: given that, we will weep for the lost soul
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> G226: do you have anything for it in sys/admin/hardware drivers?
[02:12] <Will_Stout> that I know of...
[02:12] <Ollonk> lol
[02:12]  * aishumoorthy  I hav ubuntu 9.04 and BOSS installed in my system, bt now i want to remove BOSS, so how to do it...?
[02:12] <Will_Stout> Driver manager > system >driver manager
[02:12] <kklimonda> is there some alsa mixr for gnome in 9.10?
[02:13] <Will_Stout> yes,
[02:13] <Ollonk> oh that's proprietary stuff.... boo
[02:13] <Will_Stout> alsa's here...
[02:13] <xtsuname> hi, does anyone here using 9.10 has a problem with controlling flash video?
[02:13] <Ollonk> my synaptics touchpad is broken in 9.10
[02:13] <G226> Will_Stout: IndyGunFreak, System --> Administration --> Hardware drivers? It says Broadcom B43 Wireless Driver, but not activated, I'm guessing activate it?
[02:13] <hylian> i am a die hard ubuntu fan, and even i think of going back to windows, all my drivers work, all the time. all my software works, all the time. and i had to downgrade from a spanktastical gfx card to a nvidia 6200 just so i could have ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10. But i do love ubuntu
[02:13] <Ollonk> I've always had trouble with flash lol
[02:13] <mikeru> HELLO?
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> G226: probably a good idea
[02:13] <xtsuname> urgh
[02:13] <Will_Stout> G226: YES
[02:13] <Ollonk> hello mikery
[02:13] <Ollonk> lol
[02:13] <hylian> mikeru, hello
[02:14] <yo> name a good random game for ubuntu
[02:14] <Will_Stout> G226: also, after that, in a terminal (assuming you have gnome, if not ignore this) sudo apt-get install gnome-network-manager
[02:14] <Lakota> Yo: Second Life.
[02:14] <incluye> This might be a stupid question, but I can't access my other partition from command line, can I?
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> Will_Stout: isn't gnome-network-manager already installed?
[02:14] <hylian> incuye, why not?
[02:14] <tyler_d3> incluye: you should be able to if its mounted
[02:14] <mikeru> hylian: lol. but, can you answer the question=?? I don't want to spend money on it if it isn't going to work with ubuntu....
[02:14] <Will_Stout> Indygun: not in mine
[02:14] <CavalierPrime> incluye:  you will have to mount it
[02:15] <Lakota> Would it be bad form to offer $5 for support on getting my Nvidia Drivers to function?
[02:15] <hylian> mikeru, i am sorry, didn't catch ur question
[02:15] <CavalierPrime> fdisk -l will show you all your partitions
[02:15] <incluye> aha!
[02:15] <incluye> I can.
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
 I have a sucky SiS671 video card. I'm going to buy a Nvidia 9400GT card. Is Ubuntu compatible with having 2 graphic cards at once? Or will it choose the integrated, sucky SIS?
[02:15] <notfoo> how do you change remote desktop port in this new 9.10. it's not in the 'Rmote Desktop' options(vino-preferences) anymore. anyone know where the config file is located????
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> Will_Stout: the package doesn't exist anyways
[02:15] <aishumoorthy> someone help me please...
[02:15] <KenBW2> why does Inkscape have a habit of adding decimal numbers to dimensions?
[02:15] <Spectrumx> If anyone has any problems with firefox loading pages make sure to grab the latest updates and restart just took care of all my problems thank god... The community of programers are always on thier toes I guess lol...
[02:15] <LikeNoWay> mikeru: It is quite compatible
[02:15] <Will_Stout> IndyFreak: whatever the name for that thing is...
[02:16] <randomusr> installed the kernel source with the goal of compiling with C++ compiler from intel. Unable to find the location of the source file. can someone help me?
[02:16] <hylian> mikeru, i just read it, hmm, good question, why do you want 2 gfx? is one a tv capture card?
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Will_Stout: well that a real stupid way to help someone who's new...
[02:16] <G226> IndyGunFreak / Will_Stout: Thanks, Activating it now. It was empty earlier but I looked around and installed "bcmwl-kernel-source" because Hardware Drivers manager was empty. Will_Stout I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, I see it has "NetworkManager Applet 0.7.996" in the top right bar already, still do the install of gnome-network manager?
[02:16] <hylian> mikeru, not that any of that matters, let me take a look, brb
[02:16] <DasEi> aishumoorthy: still on removing debs ?
[02:16] <randomusr> more simply, just looking for the location of the Kernel Source that I installed
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> G226: u shouldn't need to do that
[02:16] <Will_Stout> G226: if is not installed yes
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:17] <Will_Stout> G226: assuming you have have Gnome...
[02:17] <G226> Will_Stout: It's the default i386 install from the ubuntu website of 9.10, it has gnome by default I guess?
[02:17] <u007-1> hi , anyone know why i couldnt boot into initrd.img-2.6.31-302-ec2, but i could boot into initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic. i've just upgraded from ubuntu 9.04 to ubuntu 9.10. the error shows: "error: please boot the kernel first"
[02:17] <CavalierPrime> randomusr:  go to Places > Search for files
[02:17] <hylian> mikeru, this might help: http://rmarcus.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/ubuntu-with-two-graphics-cards/
[02:18] <G226> Will_Stout: YEs it has gnome I remember seeing the sessions: Gnome on the login screen
[02:18] <CavalierPrime> randomusr: then select "file system" and type the name or part of it
[02:18] <LikeNoWay> mikeru: ubuntu ignores my built-in SiS when the montiter isn't hooked up toit, and used my nvidia
[02:18] <Will_Stout> G226: yes, gnome is the default, but given all the flavors of Ubuntu, I stay safe..
[02:18] <Lakota> Can any one help me to force my NVIDIA graphics card to use 60 mhz as its refresh rate?
[02:18] <snuffy47> When editing the smb.cfg how do you assign different permmissions to different users
[02:18] <mikeru> hylian: LikeNoWay: thanks!
[02:18] <Will_Stout> G226: so yea, make sure that network manager is in there, I spent the better part of 2 days meddling cause it wasn't there...
[02:18] <abysso> Hello... I am using the newest ubuntu release and I just wanted to know if anyone would have any idea why i have such problems with flash on this computer. I have AMD 3200+ Geforce 6800GT , 512 RAM, Western Digital 120GB harddisk. I also have Ubuntu running on my laptop which is an hp compaq 6715s and it the flash works alot better on it, thx for the help!
[02:18] <LikeNoWay> mikeru: when I have a monitor hooked up to both, they both work
[02:18] <hylian> mikeru, i don't think i helped much, but your welcome
[02:19] <Plecebo> I'm trying to install 9.10 and the graphical installer is not showing my HardDrive. If I boot into the live disk and look in gparted it shows. Any Ideas?
[02:19] <Spectrumx> Death to windows... Time to shut the old windows hard drive down for a long time I hope... night night sweet prince...
[02:19] <Sirisian> Anyone here ever work with proc files and a module. Why does it take so long for messages to appear in dmesg after you feed data into a proc file? I just have a module that reads the data and printk's. Seems like there's a huge delay.
[02:19] <mikeru> LikeNoWay : )
[02:19] <Ollonk> Can anyone help me to get my touchpad working?
[02:19] <G226> Will_Stout: Okay, it works now after enabling those drivers in hardware manager then restarting, thank you. Is there anything else I should do, I don't need anything special for laptop fans or anything?
[02:19] <DasEi> abysso: correct graphics driver installed ?
[02:19] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, I'm doing that but no luck. Synaptic however, says it's installed
[02:20] <randomusr> ??
[02:20] <Will_Stout> G226: Nope, welcome to heaven, er up Ubuntu
[02:20] <abysso> DasEi: yes
[02:20] <Will_Stout> G226: long as everything else works, you've got your graphics drivers (if that applies) its the good life
[02:20] <mikeru> Do Gigabyte-branded Nvidia cards work with the Nvidia driver???
[02:20] <G226> Will_Stout / IndyGunFreak: Thanks
[02:20] <DasEi> abysso: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[02:20] <abysso> DasEi: I've been using ubuntu now for almost 2 years with this computer and I dont seem to understand why it's just this computer that has major problems
[02:20] <snuffy47> When editing the smb.cfg how do you assign different permmissions to different users
[02:21] <axisys> what is the initial login to UEC .. i tried the initial login to the web interface admin/admin and that did not work.. where can I get some help?
[02:21] <Ollonk> Can anyone help me to get my touchpad working?
[02:21] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: has it worked before?
[02:21] <G226> WIll_stout: I'm pretty sure its just a integrated intel card on this laptop so nothing special
[02:21] <Ollonk> It's incorrectly recognized as a "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint"
[02:21] <Lakota> Ollonk : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[02:21] <Ollonk> it worked in 8.10 and 9.04
[02:21] <CavalierPrime> randomusr:  look under Applications or maybe Applications > Other and see if it made the menu
[02:21] <Lakota> Have you tried that link?
[02:21] <Ollonk> no
[02:22] <Lakota> Ollonk: Try that link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad It is the documentation for the Touchpad from Ubuntu Support. It may help you.
[02:22] <abysso> DasEi: yeah i've installed them
[02:22] <hylian> mikeru, they should. there is a debate in the pc world about which drivers are best, the ones rubber stamped by ati/nvidia, or the ones made by the manufacturer of your card, that may or may not have been tweaked just for your card, but in linux, your pretty much stuck with the vanilla www.ati,com or nvidia.com drivers
[02:22] <Will_Stout> Ollonk:  apt-get install gsynaptic
[02:22] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, ok but this is the most perplexing thing I've ever seen in the file system
[02:22] <Ollonk> This is an issue with Karmic
[02:22] <Plecebo> I'm trying to install 9.10 and the graphical installer is not showing my HardDrive. If I boot into the live disk and look in gparted it shows. Any Ideas?
[02:22] <erkules> SLES11 is going to drop heartbeat (in favor for openais/pacemaker) is ubuntu going to do it the same?
[02:22] <abysso> DasEi: could it be that I should have more ram than 512?
[02:22] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, no luck
[02:22] <ybeddyj> i'm using kubuntu ...when i plug my huwei technology 3g modem to it, most of the system freezes and it shows up a cdrom device but no modem....when i use ubuntu it shows the modem but not the cdrom device.. in windows i see it showing both cdrom device and modem.
[02:23] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: try gsynaptic, if that fails, reboot to recovery console and rebuild damaged packages... the rebuild is an odd one, but it occasionally does the trick
[02:23] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, it's prolly user error, but synaptic is making me nuts when it says it's installed
[02:23] <CavalierPrime> randomusr: go to Places > Home and see if you have a folder there for it
[02:23] <Ollonk> yeah I'm installing gsynaptic
[02:23] <mikeru> hylian: but they do work with the normal nvidia one, righT?
[02:23] <William-Ubuntu> i have a little problem make me sick , the theme dust sand in ubuntu9.10 make the applecations places system etc bold , i don't like bold font , can i change it to regular? how?
[02:23] <Ollonk> "Note, selecting synaptic instead of gsynaptic
[02:23] <Ollonk> synaptic is already the newest version.
[02:23] <Ollonk> "
[02:23] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, not so much
[02:23] <Lakota> Any one know how to activate the Nvidia drivers and force it to load in 60 hrz as the resolution? If my monitor isn't run at 60hrz, it wont work.
[02:24] <CavalierPrime> randomusr:  try to reinstall with Synaptic is my guess then
[02:24] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, I should mention using 9.04
[02:24] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, will do
[02:24] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: either of those should help... oddly, last year my problem was a power adapter, somehow corrupted my touch pad drivers (its the only thing that makes any sense)
[02:24] <C-S-B> anyone use empathy as their irc client?
[02:24] <robdig> Ollonk: have you gone into system->preferences->mouse? there is a tab there that i had to play with to get scrolling to work on the touchpad
[02:24] <tyler_d3> Lakota: you need to modify your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, or alternately use nvidia-settings(note this must be run as gksu)
[02:24] <Ollonk> I upgraded to Karmic today
[02:24] <hylian> mikeru, as far as i know. the best way to find out is to go to nvidia.com, go into there drivers section, and choose linux as your os, but, if 9.10 or 9,04 isn't listed, and it's an older card they may not work, let me take a look, brb
[02:24] <Ollonk> yes
[02:25] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, linux-source-2.6.28 is what I want to compile?
[02:25] <Ollonk> It worked before I upgraded to Karmic and now it doesn't
[02:25] <Verdugo> can anyone help me out here? I was using Karmic beta and did an update but I can't tell if I'm updated to the final release. how can I tell?
[02:25] <anarki2004> i just reinstalled grub. How can I be sure it is looking in the right partitions to boot?
[02:25] <DasEi> abysso: could check by htop or systemmonitor,   but should work
[02:25] <tyler_d3> Verdugo: uname -a
[02:25] <CavalierPrime> randomusr: yeah
[02:25] <hylian> mikeru, what was you gfx card again?
[02:25] <mikeru> GF9400GT
[02:25] <cambazz> hello. i like to use my ubuntu text mode. how can i make the terminal 1280x1024. like a framebuffer text console or what they call it
[02:25] <mikeru> by Gigabyte
[02:26] <DasEi> abysso: your /var/log/Xorg.0.log produces no significant error ?
[02:26] <mikeru> hylian: all that above
[02:26] <Ollonk> robdig, my touchpad doesn't work period.
[02:26] <DasEi> aishumoorthy: ?
[02:26] <ayman> i need  help
[02:26] <Ollonk> It was working fine (this morning) when I was on jaunty
[02:26] <Ollonk> doesn't do anything in karmic
[02:26] <timClicks> cambazz: click Ctrl+Alt+F2?
[02:26] <William-Ubuntu> i have a little problem make me sick , the theme dust sand in ubuntu9.10 make the applecations places system etc bold , i don't like bold font , can i change it to regular? how?
[02:26] <robdig> Ollonk: hmm. there is an enable/disable switch in system->preferences->touchpad. had trouble with mine too when i upgraded this morning, but is working now
[02:26] <CavalierPrime> William-Ubuntu:  just customize your theme
[02:27] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: we use computers, they're the only thing on Earth that can defy the laws of physics
[02:27] <Ollonk> lol
[02:27] <Ollonk> I still <3 linux
[02:27] <CavalierPrime> William-Ubuntu System > Preferences > Appearance
[02:27] <ethan> does anyone know if you have to use "both" '/usr/sbin/services' and 'initctl' to control services in karmic
[02:27] <Ollonk> been using it for about a year now
[02:27] <edbian> Will_Stout: How do computer break the laws of physics?
[02:27] <concerned> hi
[02:27] <ayman> how can i setup program or games ended  tar.gz  for ubuntu
[02:27] <Ollonk> also crap
[02:27] <Will_Stout> edbian: they break when all evidence says they should not
[02:27] <concerned> does anyone know if the wine for ubuntu 9.10 works good with cs:s?
[02:28] <Lakota> ayman gunzip the file.
[02:28] <edbian> Will_Stout: ha ha
[02:28] <Ollonk> I'm in Xubuntu there is no "system>preferences>touchpad"
[02:28] <Lakota> then untar
[02:28] <jken146> !packages | ayman
[02:28] <abysso> DasEi: nope no errors... but aint it a bit weird that when I only have the terminal open with irssi my cup usage is about 40 %
[02:28] <William-Ubuntu> it doesn't work
[02:28] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: on my second year, first year it was off/on then Vista finally pushed my last button and now runs on just 2 pc's here, rest Ubuntu
[02:28] <Verdugo> Tyler_3d: what it have me back was 2.6.31-14-generic & a date of Fri Oct 16
[02:28] <robdig> Ollonk: ok, sorry, can't help. i have gnome
[02:28] <randomusr> CavalierPrime, when I look at details under the synaptic install, it says: Setting up FileName
[02:28] <Ollonk> my hardware is too terrible for XP
[02:28] <Ollonk> the speed difference in Xubuntu and XP sold me
[02:28] <Will_Stout> Ollonk: system preferences > synaptic ?
[02:28] <tyler_d3> Verdugo: do lsb_release -r
