[14:07] <lolmaus> Hi! I'm connecting to an Ubuntu server via Putty. Up/down keys produce input like ^[[A^[[B instead of browsing console history. How do i solve this? Tab not working too
[14:07] <patriciaip> i had problems with wifi and need to install realtek rtl8191se driver, now wifi works but only with AC adapter
[14:07] <haffe> lolmaus: Try shift+pgup/pgdn
[14:08] <Dr_Willis> lolmaus:  check the TERM setting (echo $TERM) and check teh putty terminal settings.  are you using screen  over ssh ?
[14:08] <izinucs> rileyp: not sure that vidpau enables or disables 1080p playback.. I don't have an answer for that.. maybe I'm wrong about the 195 driver
[14:08] <mamece2> lastfm for ubuntu has not the queue feature :((( BIGFAIL
[14:08] <lolmaus> Dr_Willis, $TERM is xterm. Not using screen, but i'm familiar with its hotkeys.
[14:08] <HaerdenC> updated today to 10.10 ... everything working out of the box!
[14:09] <lolmaus> haffe, that works
[14:09] <HaerdenC> good job for the ubuntu team as ussual
[14:10] <rileyp> izinucs, nvidia-195-libvdpau is installed
[14:10] <|Gaijin|> anyone having problems with 10.10 reducing your in and outgoing traffic to less then half after upgrading from 10.04?
[14:10] <patriciaip> netbook Medion Akoya E1311, ubuntu 10.10, wifi didnt work so i install driver from realtek for rtl8191se, now all works fine with AC adapter, but with battery it hangs after the login screen...
[14:10] <builtrs> How to use man command?
[14:10] <TomV-415> when I use ubuntu 10.04 to create a usb Live version, I'm wondering if I can run the update manager on the USB stick, and get upgrades.. it doesn't seem to work for me, but I thought i did this in the past..
[14:11] <izinucs> rileyp: great.. nice to know..
[14:11] <burg> Dr_Willis, thanks, i`m going to try it. but what, exactly, this option (nomodeset) means?
[14:11] <TomV-415> Is it possible to use Update manager when Ubuntu is installed on USB?
[14:11] <izinucs> builtrs: man <package name>
[14:11] <X-Sleepy-X> !patience | patriciaip
[14:11] <patriciaip> ok, sorry :-s
[14:12] <har> hello
[14:12] <rileyp> izinucs, There isnt a 256 libvdpau in synaptic available though so Im thinking the 256 package libvdpau may still be broken
[14:12] <greamer> damn cheese.  i wish it tasted better with chilli.
[14:13] <greamer> chillio.  that means... uh.
[14:14] <izinucs> rileyp: no.. they will not be upgrading the driver anytime soon.. if you want it then google for the nvidia PPA.. install that repo, refresh and then it should be available in the package manager as "Nvidia-current" or something similar.
[14:15] <builtrs> I just want to know whether which package was installed, but I only know dpkg command and cannot use its option because I didn't understand it from man command.
[14:15] <greamer> builtrs: man command huh?  that's gotta be an ace in the hole.  follow the white rabbit.
[14:16] <ylmf2008> ?
[14:18] <nemchik_> i am having an issue - when booting up my computer i am taken to a terminal login with no GUI, i had the nvidia-current drivers installed from the xorg PPA (because i needed them during beta) i tried apt-get remove nvidia* and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but no luck so far, how can i get some kind of gui back?
[14:18] <builtrs>  greamer: What are you meaning?
[14:19] <greamer> i'm clueless.  i saw on the news that a storm was coming.  Didn't know what it meant.
[14:19] <centos-user-az> i have some problems who can help me?
[14:19] <SaRy> nemchik_, thats a known issue .. some people facing it.
[14:19] <nemchik_> centos-user-az: ask your question and if someone knows they will reply
[14:20] <SaRy> centos-user-az, please ask , someone might help.
[14:20] <centos-user-az> i can't install a web server correctly, plz help me
[14:20] <nibbler_> centos-user-az, aptitude install apache2 ;-)
[14:20] <TomV-415> I found the answer to my own question, it turns out the 'standard' gui way to create a Live USB stick will not allow updates, since the os in in  compressed non-writeable file, but there's another way to do it.http://askubuntu.com/questions/2674/persistent-installation-to-usb-stick
[14:20] <kv10t> anyone tell me why Brasero error when using ISO files (more than one). http://pastebin.com/MsnNwS1m
[14:20] <nemchik_> SaRy: ok... i have used that blue screen looking step-by-step whenever i am told xserver crashed, but i don't see that this time
[14:20] <greamer> =|[14:21] <nibbler_> TomV-415, i didnt follow any of your problem so far, but the link sounds interesting :-) thanks
[14:21] <builtrs> greamer: hard to understand
[14:21] <knightstalker> Hello,I have a weird DNS issue(still...),The issue is that I can not view some sites as the dns seems to point to another IP(something which starts with 32.1.*.*),While other OSes on the same connection resolve the correct IP,what might be the matter,Its a long time I have this problem...and in the new ver its still not resolved
[14:22] <TomV-415> the problem was how to install ubunut 10.10 on a usb so I can update it with drivers, patches, etc.  standard start up disk creator doesn't seem to do that, even though you can set it up to save data to the usb drive.
[14:22] <mamece2> noone ever help with rhythmbox, im uninstalling it
[14:22] <TomV-415> I got a cheap 8gig usb drive and want to use it for playing with 10.10
[14:23] <centos-user-az> my issue is on installing a web server i have installed but can't use with php correctly
[14:23] <Sean93> how do i format my new internal hard drive? and what do i format it to?
[14:23] <ZykoticK9> TomV-415, you might want to consider doing a "real" install onto your USB (on the last page of install don't forget to choose Advanced and move GRUB onto the USB)
[14:23] <tensorpudding> Sean93: Open the Disk Utility and put a partition on it. Then it'll be ready for use.
[14:23] <izinucs> centos-user-az: sudo tasksel will bring up a menu.. choose LAMP . and it will install apache php and mysql all at the same time
[14:23] <VCoolio> Sean93: with gparted to ext3 or ext4
[14:24] <ksk_> can any one tell me how can we install the firefox 4 beta in ubuntu latest version please
[14:24] <tensorpudding> Sean93: Disk Utility is under System -> Administration, by the way
[14:24] <centos-user-az> izinucs: thank u
[14:24] <Sean93> what is the difference between ext3 and 4?
[14:24] <TomV-415> ZykoticK9: that sounds like exactly what I need.  thanks, it was not so clear to me from the link I posted, but your suggestion makes it a bit clearer.
[14:24] <izinucs> Sean93: 1 :) ...
[14:24] <Sean93> and what size does the partition need to be? its a 1TB drive
[14:24] <ksk_> any one is ther
[14:24] <ksk_> ?
[14:25] <ksk_> please help me
[14:25] <SaRy> ksk_, http://helpdeskgeek.com/linux-tips/install-firefox-4-beta-in-ubuntu-10-04/
[14:25] <tensorpudding> Sean93: ext4 is ext3 plus some extra features. You can use either though, it probably won't really affect you much.
[14:25] <izinucs> Sean93: if this is a fresh drive you're installing to you should setup 3 partitions
[14:25] <ksk_> lemme try bro
[14:25] <ksk_> Thanks
[14:25] <izinucs> Sean93: one for root "/"... one for /swap and one for /home where your data lives.
[14:25] <centos-user-az> izinucs: but here is one problem again terminal notifies me that tasksel command not found
[14:26] <Sean93> what size do i make them?
[14:26] <centos-user-az> izinucs: what can I do now?
[14:26] <izinucs> Sean93: root= 8-12gigs .. /swap=2x Ram .. /home the rest.
[14:26] <tensorpudding> Sean93: swap should be as big as the amount of RAM you have
[14:26] <SaRy> izinucs, exactly .. partitions never been easer then with Gparted.
[14:26] <zatan> hi is anybody able to help me ? I dont have sound in firefox , its saying ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'
[14:27] <izinucs> centos-user-az: they may have taken it out.. sudo apt-get install php mysql
[14:27] <tensorpudding> Sean93: assuming you want to use hibernation, it can be smaller if you don't want to, but it should be at least as big as half of your RAM
[14:28] <soreau> Firefox is having major problems lately. Seems like a memory leak or something
[14:28] <centos-user-az> izinucs: i have installed but can't use correctly also i have changed httpd.conf to use with php
[14:28] <listerdl> hey all - if a do terminal command dd (duplicate disk) does the receiving hard drive that i am cloning to have to be the SAME size? Thanks
[14:28] <greamer> yes... everyone is jacked up.
[14:28] <pelmen> guys,yesterdays update broke my gdm, now buntu loads only into console login
[14:28] <soreau> anyone have issues with firefox going slow, consuming many resources and just acting buggy?
[14:28] <builtrs> How to find a package was installed or not?
[14:28] <soreau> I have to restart it often on lucid and maverick
[14:28] <Sean93> i bought a 1TB spinpoint F3 to replace my current boot drive whice has ubuntu and windows XP on it. how do i change the drives?
[14:28] <soreau> builtrs: dpkg -l|grep <pkg-name>
[14:29] <nepalinux> hi all, I am having problem with boot process...when I boot and select from the GRUB bootloader, it just blinks and hangs at terminal... I removed "quiet splash" and found that it was stuck at the point "xxx pages non-shared"...I have low experience in using ubuntu so can anyone give me the right direction for this problem?
[14:29] <centos-user-az> how to install LAMP on ubuntu, who can help me?
[14:29] <soreau> For example, I go to open a file in firefox but the window does not display the contents until I restart firefox
[14:29] <soreau> and it's going slow
[14:29] <izinucs> Sean93: use clonezilla or partimage to mirror the partitions.. clonezilla might work better for you.. there's also dd
[14:29] <builtrs> soreau thanks
[14:29] <soreau> builtrs: np
[14:29] <patriciaip> notebook medion akoya e1311, ubuntu 10.10, wifi rtl8191sevb with realtek linux drivers, works perfectly with ac adapter, hangs after login screen with battery, any idea ?
[14:30] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: install tasksel first
[14:30] <greamer> quick... packet sniffers.
[14:30] <listerdl> partimage does like ext4 though - apparently?
[14:30] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: i can't install
[14:30] <Sean93> izinucs: the drive im replacing is 80gig does that make a difference?
[14:30] <greamer> ifconfig eth0 131.278.92.187
[14:30] <izinucs> Sean93: the problem you'll have is the uuid's used in fstab to mount the partitions will end up being different.. you'll have to manually make those changes using a live cd.
[14:30] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: you can't? what version of Ubuntu do you have?
[14:31] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: 10.10
[14:31] <tensorpudding> Sean93: another option is to reinstall Ubuntu and Windows XP, and copy files over
[14:31] <izinucs> Sean93: personally I'd mirror the windows install onto the new drive and then just reinstall ubuntu since it doesn't take very long..
[14:31] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: tasksel is available for 10.10
[14:31] <mamece2> is there any chat dedicated to rhythmbox?
[14:32] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: it's in the software center

[14:33] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[14:33] <izinucs> Sean93: if you use clonezilla you can mirror XP to the new drive.. then do your fresh install of ubuntu and partition during that process.
[14:34] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: that will install apache 2, php 5, and it should be ready to go
[14:34] <jshmoe24> Can anyone help with getting compiz fusion to work on ubuntu 10.10?
[14:34] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: thank u! :)

[14:39] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, "flash" shouldn't be an issue - "shockwave" is
[14:39] <mamece2> is there any chat dedicated to rhythmbox?
[14:39] <izinucs> ZykoticK9: sure shockwave is available..
[14:39] <zeroGravity> can somebody suggest some other ways to find a ip adress in ubuntu?

[14:42] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: how can i edit permissions?
[14:42] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: google flash squared for the latest beta which there is also a 64 bit version for linux available.. also if you haven't already tried it use the flash package inthe repo.. sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[14:42] <tensorpudding> mamece2: practically all of them
[14:42] <ForgeAus> whats scrobble?
[14:42] <tensorpudding> mamece2: exaile, banshee, rhythmbox, decibel, amarok
[14:42] <tas> hello, I downloaded Steel storm, its a game, and its .tar.gz format, I have extracted, but how do I really install it?

[14:43] <ForgeAus> plays just about everything I've ever thrown at it
[14:43] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: installing flashpluginnonfree
[14:43] <SaRy> geez, They're stored in ~/.tomboy as ".note" files.
[14:43] <tensorpudding> mamece2: i recommend exaile, because rhythmbox is a load of fail
[14:43] <mamece2> tensorpudding but rhythmbox is really messy scrobbling
[14:43] <anoman273> Hey why would I want to get ubuntu over slackware?
[14:43] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: restart FF after that
[14:44] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: ok
[14:44] <ForgeAus> anoman273 you wouldn't you'd want kubuntu instead :)
[14:44] <LjL> !ot | anoman273
[14:44] <geez> Thnx SaRy :-D
[14:44] <ForgeAus> or PCLinuxOS but personally I prefer kbuntu
[14:44] <tensorpudding> anoman273: there's tons of articles on the Internet about distros, but this channel is not really a good place to discuss that
[14:44] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: permissions?
[14:44] <izinucs> ForgeAus: kubuntu is nice.. I have that on the desktop.. gnome on lappy
[14:44] <ForgeAus> is slackware even current... ?
[14:44] <DarkSkull> does it exist a ftp cracker without dictionary?
[14:44] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: yeah permissions
[14:44] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which ones?
[14:45] <DarkSkull> to me?
[14:45] <ForgeAus> izinucs at least it doesn't feel like linux with KDE slapped on top... feels far more... integrated
[14:45] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: i can't edit a file without sudo
[14:45] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: chmod is used for editing them in general, but given the discussion we just had, i'm going to guess you want to change the permissions of the /var/www folder
[14:45] <DarkSkull> you know?
[14:45] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: still shows additional plugins required
[14:45] <izinucs> ForgeAus: true..
[14:45] <mamece2> tensorpudding so i dont need to dl the lastfm app?
[14:45] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which might not be a good plan for security reasons
[14:45] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: what site are you going to ?
[14:45] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, what game are you trying?  link?
[14:45] <tensorpudding> mamece2: no, not at all

[14:45] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: ^^
[14:46] <ForgeAus> PCLinuxOS is nice, has lotsa stuff out of the box... but it feels like KDE is slapped ontop of it, not sure about suse, not sure about some other distros...
[14:46] <ForgeAus> Mandriva might be ok
[14:46] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, i just get the "missing plugin" as well
[14:46] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: :(
[14:46] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: clear but here are some problems i can't create any folder inside any folder only with sudo i can
[14:46] <ForgeAus> I'd doubt if Debian really does the integration thing either...
[14:46] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which folder are you trying to create?
[14:46] <ForgeAus> Gentoo maybe but you have to do that manually
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> 'distro of the month club' :)
[14:47] <nemchik> okay i am back on my desktop with no nvidia drivers, i purged the x updates ppa but now i have no options in the 'additional drivers' to install my nvidia drivers
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> nemchik:  you could isntall the nvidia-current package by hand.
[14:47] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: in Linux by default folders under /usr, /var etc. are not writable by regular users, for security reasons.
[14:47] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: for example in /usr/local only in terminal with sudo  i do
[14:47] <ForgeAus> lol DrWillis...
[14:47] <C-Otto> hi there
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> centos-user-az:  thats how its supposed to be.
[14:47] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: why do you want to make folders in /usr/local?
[14:47] <C-Otto> i am an administrator for a large mirror, is there a specific channel for related problems?
[14:48] <nemchik> Dr_Willis, is that provided by ubuntu repo?
[14:48] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: ok clear but i think in solaris os it's possible right?
[14:48] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: i'm fairly sure it's not in
[14:48] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: Solaris*
[14:48] <erUSUL> !mirror
[14:48] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: keep in mind some flash sites also make use of windows technology as well.. so they all won't work.  I tried 3 browsers and no go on any of them..
[14:49] <mamece2> tensorpudding how can i dl the last exaile version?
[14:49] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: hmm ok :(
[14:49] <Sean93> izinucs: what should my partitions be? primary, ect.
[14:49] <tensorpudding> mamece2: exaile's in the software center
[14:49] <izinucs> Sean93: for the new ubuntu install?
[14:49] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: for fast learning any linux dist what should i do?
[14:49] <Sean93> yes
[14:50] <mamece2> tensorpudding that is not the last version, thats 0.3.2 , in the web page theres a 0.3.3
[14:50] <fewboo> When I right click on a folder I do not have the encryption option
[14:50] <izinucs> Sean93: root "/" 8-12 gigs .... swap 1gig or 2x ram (if you want hibernate/sleep) .. the rest for /home
[14:50] <tensorpudding> mamece2: it's likely that 0.3.3 isn't packaged for Ubuntu yet.
[14:51] <mamece2> tensorpudding i would like to dl the last version, do u know how can i do that?
[14:51] <tensorpudding> mamece2: you can install it by hand from their site, but that's rarely a fun time
[14:51] <Sean93> izinucs: i made them that size, but i made them all primary partitions, is that ok?
[14:51] <nikola> centos-user-az, there is no fast learning..
[14:51] <burg> when i try to create partitions for ubuntu, i create the first one from the free space, and after that the remaining free space is marked as unusable and i can`t create any more partitons. how to fix that?
[14:51] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: do u have any suggestion?
[14:51] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: if you want to learn in general about permissions and that kind of stuff, there's tons of books out there, and guides on the internet
[14:51] <centos-user-az> nikola: i know but than ever i meant so
[14:52] <izinucs> Sean93: sure.. if you're not going to use all the space on the drive then you can only have 3 primary partitions and the 4th *must* be extended.. then you'll be able to add more if needed.
[14:52] <nepalinux> I am so much bored with my ubuntu freezing at boot time.. :( ..was expecting some help from guys here :(...the boot just stucks at "xxxxx pages non-shared"...I can't figure out where the problem is...
[14:52] <kaco> hello
[14:52] <Sean93> izinucs: i'm confused
[14:53] <Sean93> i thought i only need 3 partitions
[14:53] <izinucs> Sean93: that's all I mentioned.. but if you have windows then you need 4 total.. 1 for windows and 3 for ubuntu
[14:53] <Sean93> and the ubuntu ones should all be primary?
[14:53] <izinucs> Sean93: if you use the entire drive then you're good to go.. all can be primary partitions..
[14:53] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: i'm trying to think of a good one in general, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SystemAdministration might be good
[14:54] <Kaco> where am i?
[14:54] <julie> Salut J'ai un Serveur IBM x-series 206 8482-2su Avec une carte Vid├®o Int├®gr├® ATI Radeon 7000_RV100.Sous Suse Linux La carte video S'installe parfaitement duran l'instalation ,Sous ubuntu jai plein de Bug D'affichage mon ordinateur n'est pas fluide le d├®placement des fen├¬tres est saccad├® .ubuntu ne me propose pas de pilote de p├®ripherique ,merci
[14:54] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: most of what's in there is generally applicable to Unix-like operating systems in general
[14:54] <tensorpudding> !fr | julie
[14:54] <mamece2> this is real weird i cannot navigate but in google and have this chat, why my internet so slow?
[14:54] <izinucs> Kaco: you're in the interwebs..
[14:54] <allguru> any good application to convert videos and compress them etc etc... ? , thanks for the help! :)
[14:55] <ZykoticK9> Kaco, Slovack Republic IRC says ;)  your in the Ubuntu support channel.
[14:55] <domcod> allguru: mencoder, ffmpeg
[14:55] <allguru> like " total video convertor in windows" ...
[14:55] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: thx, and i installed lamp but it's not working properly i've created index.php i try to call it but it notifies me that there is no such file
[14:55] <izinucs> allguru: handbreak.fr
[14:55] <Techathy> on a software raid with jfs or xfs would it be a good idea to have an external journal on an SSD?
[14:55] <allguru> domcod: trying them
[14:55] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: did you create index.php in the right place? it needs to be in the web root as specified by apache
[14:56] <allguru> izinucs: domain = parked !
[14:56] <mamece2> its there any way to uninstall and reinstall the internet controllers? its so danm slow
[14:56] <izinucs> allguru: google handbreak .. it should come up
[14:56] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: yeah i've created in the correct place in ../htdocs but it can't read it
[14:56] <Techathy> I'm specifically thinking about large sequential writes with RAID5 or RAID6
[14:56] <Kaco> ZykoticK9 oh cool, what is slovack? ;-)
[14:56] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ would be good to consult in the future for problems
[14:56] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key and then I wanted to encrypt some files but I could not do that because there is not encrypt option when I right click on a folder
[14:57] <allguru> izinucs: handbrake and not handbreak ! :)
[14:57] <allguru> =)
[14:57] <izinucs> allguru: sorry :/ .. bleary eyed
[14:58] <Kaco> linux sucks but ubuntu seems to get better over time
[14:58] <allguru> izinucs: http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php <<< only for ubuntu 9 :(
[14:58] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: the index.php might not be in the folder where it is expected to be...what's the path where you created index.php?
[14:58]  * izinucs is rebooting into his just finished upgrade to 10.10.. fingers crossed. this has never worked in the past..
[14:59] <burg> when i try to create partitions for ubuntu, i create the first one from the free space, and after that the remaining free space is marked as unusable and i can`t create any more partitons. how to fix that?
[14:59] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: i have created it in the webserver's htdocs directory so it's right but it can't read it
[15:00] <nepalinux> I am not an expert in this regard but httpd.conf defines the root folder, isn't it? is it having the correct config?
[15:00] <Techathy> burg:  just a thought but would you be making a 4th primary partition?
[15:00] <mamece2> how can i reinstall internet controllers? this is very much slow and when i run a live cd internets normal
[15:00] <onaogh> burg, how many total paritions are there on the hard drive, what is the size of partition you made, and how much is left on free space
[15:01] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: yeah i've also changed that file to use php but okkk may be i've typed wrong mime-type for using php which mime type should be used do you know?
[15:01] <onaogh> mamece2, how u are certain that it is the network stacks that is slowing your internet ?
[15:01] <burg> Techathy, onaogh : i have on this hdd c:, d: and e: for windows (having about 215 gb from my 250gb hdd), and 30+ free gb
[15:02] <lelamal> hi all, I want to unsubscribe from bug #1, but I can't. everytime I get an error: "The following errors were encountered: * Server error, please contact an administrator. OOPS ID:OOPS-1751K1229". who should I contact?
[15:02] <onaogh> burg, you can't have more than 4 primary partitions, so if the first 3 is primary, u can create 1  more primary, and then a logical container and more partitions inside it
[15:03] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: I don't think its due to MIME mismatch... if it can't access index.php, it means there's no index.php file in the root folder
[15:04] <nepalinux> what's your absolute path?
[15:04] <burg> onaogh, how can i check if those are primary? those are windows partitions. i had those before, with ubuntu 10.04 and 9.10. but back then the ubuntu installer created the linux partitions automatically
[15:04] <Russel> ciao
[15:04] <Russel> ubu ci sei?
[15:05] <xiamx> there's a software that let you set many kinds of notification/alert for new mail, new rss, website update... can anyone remind me its name?
[15:05] <Techathy> Assuming the first 3 are primary partitions you have to make the 4th primary partition a logical partition container & then make the linux partitions (5 up) in that
[15:05] <onaogh> burg, ubuntu setup can create required partitions automatecally on the free space, if you go with that option u should have no problem
[15:05] <centos-user-az> thx everyone who helped me
[15:05] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: you made it work?
[15:05] <burg> onaogh: i can`t find that option in ubuntu 10.10
[15:06] <mamece2> grghaestjstrjiskotidtiytijrujsrujstrustruhfxguj
[15:06] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: I'll try to solve it, now eating time :)
[15:06] <onaogh> burg, i think it is there when u start "Install" from live session
[15:06] <Techathy> How you'd do that will depend on the way you install, as install server manually using parted I can't help with the specifics
[15:06] <onaogh> mamece2, ?
[15:07] <Techathy> as I install sory
[15:07] <burg> onaogh: if i start install from live session, i can see that option?
[15:07] <onaogh> yes, as you go through the setup process, it will question you on where would u like to install ubuntu
[15:08] <onaogh> just make sure you have some free space for it (un partitioned space)
[15:08] <mamece2> see?? something is happening
[15:08] <onaogh> mamece2, ?
[15:08] <burg> i did that before, my options were: along other os, erase hdd or manually add partitions
[15:08] <jiohdi> I am having a problem running gadmin-proFTPd ... first it told me that there were no cert.pem or key.pem files... I generated those using openssl but now it tell me that it wants a passphrase and passphrase does not match and wrong passphrase... help
[15:08] <burg> onaogh: and i have more than 30gb of free space
[15:09] <onaogh> burg, and the third option. there are 3 options, erase whole hdd, install along side with another OS, and choose manually (advanced)
[15:09] <onaogh> burg, u choose along with other OS
[15:10] <jiohdi> burg, if you unformate that 30gb, the system will find it and ask if you want to put it there
[15:10] <onaogh> burg, i can also use choose partitions manually if u select third option
[15:10] <abaddon> hi, what debian version is Jaunty compatible with?
[15:10] <jiohdi> unformat even
[15:10] <onaogh> abaddon, i dont know but i guess all
[15:10] <yapsol> what's Jaunty's kernel version?
[15:11] <tensorpudding> Debian releases are not generally compatible with Ubuntu releases
[15:12] <yapsol> i was going to say that, but from the kernel version the question can be answered
[15:12] <yapsol> more or less
[15:12] <tensorpudding> Jaunty was released around the same time as Debian Lenny I think (spring 2009)
[15:12] <domcod> abaddon: what kind of compatibility?
[15:13] <mamece2> onaogh its not the network because when i run a live cd internet has its normal speed
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> !debian | abaddon
[15:13] <jiohdi> kernel version 2.6.28-11 for the jackalope
[15:13] <abaddon> hm thanks, trying to figure out an modem issue but the only references are on ubuntu and a package udev-extras that doesnt exist on debian
[15:13] <abaddon> thanks, ill try to figure it out
[15:14] <tensorpudding> lenny uses 2.6.28 also
[15:14] <yapsol> try to compile the vanilla kernel on your system, abaddon
[15:14] <onaogh> mamece2, try to bring network intereface down and up again
[15:14] <GHH> I need a simple help to edit Ubuntu
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> GHH: ask away
[15:15] <yapsol> i think debian lenny uses kernel 2.6.26
[15:15] <abaddon> yapsol: i dont want to do it each time a security bug gets fixed :-) i use to though
[15:15] <tensorpudding> err, i misread, it is 2.6.26
[15:15] <enriqueaf> Hi everyon,have anyone tried to run vino in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[15:15] <GHH> I am trying to add a directory(success) and trying to change the Ubuntu name
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> GHH: do you mean the host name of the system?
[15:16] <GHH> ActionParsnip, yeah and trying to add my own name
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> !hostname | GHH
[15:16] <burg> onaogh: there are my partitions : http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=kqp3piuov5jgpmh&thumb=5
[15:16] <tensorpudding> GHH: you can change the hostname by editing /etc/hostname
[15:16] <Goldline> im getting this error whilst dowloading packages: GPG error: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY
[15:17] <LjL> !gpgerr | Goldline
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> GHH: open BOTH files before making changes to either
[15:17] <atDebug> G'Day
[15:17] <atDebug> How do I measure memory usage on a single program (that I wrote in C++ & compiled with g++)? - NOTE: The program runs for less than a second
[15:17] <GHH> oh thanks
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: what is the hex key and i'll give a command to use
[15:17] <Goldline> or through software sources isnt?
[15:17] <Sean93> you can have BTFS on linux?
[15:17] <Goldline> can i add the url in software sources?
[15:17] <Sean93> NTFS*
[15:17] <GHH> ActionParsnip, boot jpg?
[15:17] <atDebug> Sean93: Yes you can!
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: its offered in Maverick
[15:18] <atDebug> Sean93: As of 10.10 it's supported by the Ubuntu kernel
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: yeah, using ntfs-3g
[15:18] <Sean93> what is better nTFS or ext4?
[15:18]  * atDebug was reading the wiki about it a few hours ago
[15:18] <atDebug> Sean93: ext4
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: ext4
[15:18] <onaogh> burg, u have 3 primary partitions as i can see from that pic, that is why u can create 1 more primary partition, which u dont need, just lunch the install wizard from live session, when asked for partition selection, choose the third option (choose partitions manually) then ..
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: if you give the long hex key in the output I can give the command to add the key
[15:18] <atDebug> Beat ya to it :P
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> Sean93:  for what job?
[15:18] <ZykoticK9> Sean93, apples and oranges -- ext is linux, NTFS is windows
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: ntfs is pretty poor
[15:18] <yapsol> use ntfs only if you need to share a partition with windows
[15:18] <atDebug> ZykoticK9: Apples are still better
[15:18] <christoz> hello, i'm trying to edit a file in var/www via scp with komodo edit, the problem is that i'm not privileged, what i did was to add my username to the root group, but still cannot write there anyhting, please i need some help here, thanks in advance
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: the handling of NTFS on Ubuntu doesn't mesh well with Windows ACL's, it's kind of a pain
[15:19] <yapsol> there is no software able to mount ext4 partitions on windows
[15:19] <burg> onaogh: then what?
[15:19] <napster> I don't want to use "#dpkg -i x.deb"! what should be the command which will download and install all the dependencies along with this package?
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: not yet
[15:19] <onaogh> burg, you can use the 30 gb free unpartitioned space to install linux, first .. wait i am writing
[15:19] <enriqueaf> I refrase my question, does anyone knows why in ubuntu netbook the vino-server doesn't run(checked with ps aux) ??
[15:19] <atDebug> yapsol: Use ext3 if you want to share with windows, they do have a driver afterall
[15:19] <erUSUL> !software | napster apt-get install
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: microsoft could code it in, the definitions are available, they just dont
[15:19] <yapsol> i know, ext2ifs and the other one
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> I found the ext2/3 driver for windows to be a little flakey. but ive not used it in ages
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: funny how linux can read and write to NTFS yet microsoft OSes don't go the other way
[15:19] <yapsol> but, for *now* it isn't possible
[15:19] <napster> erUSUL: The package x.deb is not in repository
[15:19] <Sean93> I just got a new harddrive, I want to install ubuntu and XP on it. how do i do it?
[15:19] <jiohdi> christoz: you can open a terminal, sudo -s and password yourself to superuser, then open the edit program and you will have root access control
[15:20] <onaogh> burg, first make swap partition, to do so, click on free space, click add, choose swap from drop down menu, the size of the swap better be twice of your ram
[15:20] <Kofte> hi
[15:20] <yapsol> Sean93, install windows first
[15:20] <atDebug> hi\
[15:20] <napster> erUSUL: But I downloaded it from somewhere else
[15:20] <atDebug> !hi
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> GHH: what do you mean "boo jpg" ?
[15:20] <burg> onaogh: swap must be logical?
[15:20] <GHH> ActionParsnip, boot image
[15:20] <tensorpudding> NTFS support is more cross-platform than any other filesystem outside of the ones commonly used for portable media
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> napster: then you can use:   sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[15:20] <atDebug> burg: Nope, but why would you have it primary?
[15:20] <yapsol> heh
[15:20] <jiohdi> christoz: open the editor by typing its name on the terminal line as super user to clarify
[15:20] <onaogh> yes
[15:20] <yapsol> ntfs is not a bad file system
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> GHH: i thought you want to change the system host name?
[15:21] <atDebug> tensorpudding: exFAT    xD
[15:21] <burg> atDebug: so logical is ok?
[15:21] <onaogh> burg, in ur case yes
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: it fragments like crazy
[15:21] <atDebug> burg: Yes
[15:21] <Sean93> yapsol:  how do i set the partitions, ext/
[15:21] <GHH> ActionParsnip, yeah that solved
[15:21] <napster> ActionParsnip: That breaks the dependencies friend :-(
[15:21] <atDebug> Sean93: GParted
[15:21] <Sean93> ect.*
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> GHH: cool :)
[15:21] <yapsol> i'm just at unease from using it at linux
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> napster: then you need to satisfy deps
[15:21] <napster> ActionParsnip: How gdebi-package installer works?
[15:22] <Kofte> warning regarding NTFS partitions: ubuntu can't handle privileges well on NTFS partitions
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> napster: its a gui for the command I gave
[15:22] <GHH> ActionParsnip, Now want to change also the image and need to add my own image for startup
[15:22] <yapsol> Sean93: Install Windows not using all the disk space
[15:22] <tensorpudding> NTFS is supported on Windows, OSX, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Haiku/BeOS
[15:22] <napster> ActionParsnip: Absolutly NO
[15:22] <christoz> jiohdi, thanks didn't know that this command exists, but what i do when someone remotely wants to write in there?
[15:22] <tensorpudding> even MS-DOS apparently
[15:22] <yapsol> Then install Ubuntu after it.
[15:22] <onaogh> burg, so once u decide the sizes of home and / (root ) partitions, just click add and set size and mount point "/" for root and /home for home, make both ext4
[15:22] <kexman_> hello
[15:22] <Kofte> I used to have a data partition in NTFS to share with XP, but I couldn't set user privileges
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> GHH: http://linux.aldeby.org/configure-grub2-options-and-background.html
[15:22] <jiohdi> christoz: sorry, dont know that answer to that one
[15:22] <Sean93> yapsol: its a 1TB drive, how much would you recomend for windows and ubuntu
[15:22] <kexman_> does anyone have any idea how secure this is ? http://oslike.se
[15:23] <christoz> jiohdi, ok thanks
[15:23] <burg> onaogh: both logical? / and /home?
[15:23] <yapsol> Kofte: haha. I suffered hell to share ┬ĄTorrent between Windows and Linux. I needed to install ┬ĄTorrent on a ext2 partition.
[15:23] <napster> ActionParsnip: gdebi finds and installs the deps, but dpkg -i don't do that!
[15:23] <Guest08140> quelqu'un parle francais ? jaimerai prendre des photos a partr de ma webcam integr├® mais je c pas comment faire sous xubuntu
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: just add mac4lin to your current system and you'll have the same
[15:23] <atDebug> tensorpudding: Even KolibriOS has read-only access :O
[15:23] <enriqueaf> joo nadie me hace caso, tendr├® que ir a los foros
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> napster: you can run: sudo apt-get -f install     why the exclamation mark?
[15:23] <tensorpudding> Guest08140: /join #ubuntu-fr
[15:23] <centos-user-az> who knows automated lamp installation where installs packages
[15:23] <GHH> ActionParsnip, /etc/grub ?
[15:24] <yapsol> Sean93: I *think* 10-20GB should be enough for Ubuntu, if you want to save most of your files on Windows.
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> GHH: read the guide
[15:24] <kexman_> i found it here : http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=5ce0891e0ee0aba38b1a78fecf4cf9f55cd90b09
[15:24] <yapsol> Sean93: add some extra space for "swap"
[15:24] <yapsol> One thumb rule for swap size is 2x your RAM.
[15:24] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: a lot of work with what you could get already pre installed :) pretty big (huge) difference
[15:24] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: Where I can find apache web server's directory installed by tasksel
[15:24] <napster> ActionParsnip: exclamation because, thats the expected behaviour for dpkg, right?
[15:25] <tensorpudding> the 2x RAM rule is not very useful anymore
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: 10Gb /, 1xRAM amount for swap and 10Gb for /home, you can save extra data in your windows partition if you like
[15:25] <izinucs> centos-user-az: /var/www
[15:25] <Goldline> is there a commdn to always allow untrusted packages to be downloaded, thats awhole lot easier than manually adding them
[15:25] <Goldline> is there a command to always allow untrusted packages to be downloaded, thats awhole lot easier than manually adding them
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> napster: no, dpkg's job is only to install the package it is given
[15:25] <yapsol> As long as 2x RAM is still plenty I don't care.
[15:25] <burg> onaogh: and since i have 25gb for / and /home , how would you recommend to make them?
[15:25] <Sean93> yapsol: I'm trying to use ubuntu as my main OS but I'm still have XP withdrawal symptoms lol
[15:25] <napster> ActionParsnip: hmm, now its clear, thanks for the help
[15:25] <izinucs> centos-user-az: that's where html files go.. /etc/apache2 for configs etc
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: sure but it wont be supported here as its some homebrew nonesense, big difference
[15:26] <yapsol> I have 4GB of RAM and I use 8GB for swap.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: manually installing the stuff which the user has added will get the same result but isn't some hacked release
[15:26] <onaogh> burg, if u aren't installing much softwares, 10 Gb is sufficient for root, keep the rest for home
[15:26] <kgx> is it possible to request a url through a proxy from firefox's address bar directly (without reconfiguring firefox's network settings)? i've seen someone do this before but can't remembe how
[15:26] <yapsol> Sean93: Try this Sean. Install Windows on the whole drive, and all your software.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: does it ever get used?
[15:26] <icarus-c> yapsol, 8GB of swap?.....
[15:26] <enriqueaf> yapsol: why 2x RAM for Swap
[15:27] <burg> onaogh: again: should i make both logical partitions?
[15:27] <onaogh> yes
[15:27] <enriqueaf> it is not suposed that the swap part it is used if the ram is full??
[15:27] <yapsol> Then shrink the partition with GParted live.
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: if you install windows first but leave space unpartitioned (default is 100% for windows), you can avoid the whole resize debarkle
[15:27] <napster> ActionParsnip: But the question remains, how can I resolve the dependency while install for a package on my home folder (the package is not in the archive, but the deps are in the repos)
[15:27] <yapsol> Make it about 10GB bigger than XP. This will leave you some room to add other software.
[15:27] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, generally linux start swapping even there are still free ram
[15:27] <centos-user-az> izinucs:  i found /etc/apache2 but here i can't find what i want also httpd.conf is empty
[15:27] <onaogh> burg, again send me a snapshot in mediafire
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: why bother resizing when you can simply make the windows partition smaller than the available space, reduces data corruption risk
[15:28] <yapsol> And if it is not enough, you can resize with GParted again, as long as you don't use LVM and/or encryption on Ubuntu.
[15:28] <burg> onaogh: after i create the new partitions?
[15:28] <izinucs> centos-user-az: I don't know anything about httpd.conf
[15:28] <onaogh> burg, yes
[15:28]  * icarus-c still don't understand why 8GB of swap...
[15:28] <Kofte> centos-user-az: httpd.conf is empty by default
[15:28] <enriqueaf> icarus-c but it do it if the RAM is low no??
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> napster: if: sudo apt-get -f install    doesn't resolve it, you will need to find debs or PPAs with the packages you need
[15:28] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, of course it does
[15:28] <napster> ActionParsnip: Can I pm?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> napster: sure
[15:28] <kellnola> you don't need 8GB of swap
[15:29] <centos-user-az> izinucs: Do You know about lamp installed by tasksel
[15:29] <yapsol> I use 8GB for the swap area because I have 3TB of disk here.
[15:29] <enriqueaf> icarus-c, so if you have high ram you don't need so much swap
[15:29] <izinucs> centos-user-az: that's too general of a question
[15:29] <Goldline> Howto allo the downloadin of untrusted packages by default instead of adding them manually?
[15:29] <onaogh> i think ubuntu cannot hibernate if the swap < ram
[15:29] <nepalinux_> centos-user-az: set DocumentRoot in the httpd.conf file with the absolute path where you'are keeping your websripts..
[15:29] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, try 512MB ram and give 10GB swap. it will still be slow as F
[15:29] <Goldline> Howto allow the downloading of untrusted packages by default instead of adding them manually?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: can you give the output of:   sudo apt-get update    I can give a command to import the keys and they will be trusted
[15:29] <icarus-c> under heavy page fualt
[15:29] <kellnola> I usually low-ball swap since if it gets used, you;'re screwed not matter
[15:30] <Goldline> okay wait
[15:30] <Goldline> ii pm u
[15:30] <kellnola> *no matter what
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: use http://pastie.org
[15:30] <centos-user-az> izinucs: izinucs: i talk about apache web server's htdocs folder do you about it?
[15:30] <icarus-c> i normally have swap 1x of ram if i need hibernation,  otherwise 200MB
[15:30] <izinucs> centos-user-az: no
[15:30] <yapsol> At this moment I'm running Ubuntu 10.10. XFCE, some file folders opened, Firefox with ten tabs and XChat. Mem used 966908, Swap used 78372.
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: create the text, use the pastebin, you can then paste a link
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> anyone having problems with 10.10 reducing your in and outgoing traffic to less then half after upgrading from 10.04?
[15:31] <icarus-c> |Gaijin|, how you get that figure
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> ehm... eating healthy?
[15:31] <burg> onaogh: http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=ag3mbge7bugf0bw
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> what figure?
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: can you give the output of:  free -m   I can run that on my 1.5Gb system with 3Gb swap and its fine
[15:32] <onaogh> burg, 1 minute
[15:32] <Goldline> http://pastie.org/1227689
[15:32] <gilaniali> The `write` command works when the user is logged into the same server, but what if they are not. Is there a command to leave a message that the user gets when they log in
[15:32] <yapsol> Just a moment, ActionParsnip
[15:33] <onaogh> burg, u got it right, u can proceed with installation now
[15:33] <burg> onaogh: great, thank you
[15:33] <onaogh> :)
[15:33] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com EF4186FE247510BE
[15:33] <GHH> ActionParsnip, thanks and 1 more question that now can i use the remastersystem  for the iso?
[15:33] <atDebug> Don't run sudo rm -rf /
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> GHH: why are you just asking me, ask the channel
[15:34] <icarus-c> atDebug, why are you even posting it
[15:34] <tumii> what the hell. my only resolution is 640x480 and i have installed nvidia drivers. GPU is 8800 GTS. what can I do?
[15:34] <yapsol> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/T0qse1x2
[15:34] <GHH> ActionParsnip, sorry
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> !nvidia | tumii
[15:34] <onaogh> i was using a software in ubuntu before for watching channels live and youtube + other videos, but i dont remember its name now, it was starting with v
[15:34] <Goldline> action im reloading
[15:34] <Sean93> Windows 50GB, Root 12GB, Swap 2.5GB and Home 850GB (or whatever is left). Does that sound ok?
[15:34] <izinucs> tumii: I bet you installed the binary from nvidia..
[15:34] <tumii> yes
[15:34] <tumii> from nvidia site
[15:34] <GHH> 1 more question that now can i use the remastersystem  for the backup and making  iso?
[15:35] <tumii> izinucs yes
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> tumii: no, from the repos
[15:35] <yapsol> I remember the memory usage reaching the stars when I got the Ubuntu 9 CD and updated it.
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, i would put slightly more for root
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, say 15GB
[15:35] <wmirc> Do we have people that use windows mobile
[15:35] <Sean93> icarus-c: how much?
[15:35] <tumii> ActionParsnip: nope, i downloaded it from nvidia site and installed it
[15:35] <burg> onaogh: once again, all my linux partitions are now logical. is that correct?
[15:35] <tumii> whats the problem?
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: you have 1Gb RAM and have 370Mb free of it
[15:35] <Goldline> still afew errors remaining ation ii paste them
[15:35] <izinucs> tumii: without disabling the neuvoue driver and making other changes.. it's not as easy as it use to be to install the nvidia driver.. you're better off uninstalling it then google the nvidia PPA
[15:35] <Sean93> icarus-c:  ah, ok
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, that could allow you to install multiple DE at the same time, and other random softwar
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> tumii: then you will have to do a LOT of work manually
[15:36] <onaogh> yes
[15:36] <onaogh> burg, yes
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> tumii: if you use the package in the repo it will all be done for you
[15:36] <yapsol> 1GB because I'm running Ubuntu inside VirtualBox under Windows 7.
[15:36] <Sean93> multiple DE?
[15:36] <tumii> ActionParsnip: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current is installed
[15:36] <Goldline> http://pastie.org/1227697
[15:36] <yapsol> This computer is shared and I can't use "pure" Linux all the time.
[15:36] <icarus-c> Sean93, between, don't you need to share data between windows/ubuntu ?
[15:36] <icarus-c> Sean93, or you are planning to put /home right on NTFS
[15:36] <izinucs> ActionParsnip: tumii if you want the latest driver for the 9800 use the PPA
[15:36] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: probably not a good idea to install it since i didnt even read a single article on the net about it :)
[15:37] <Goldline> http://pastie.org/1227697
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: the getdeb server then, doesn't have a lucid folder
[15:37] <kexman_> whois of the site doesnt shows too much neither :)
[15:37] <icarus-c> Sean93, say you install both GNOME and KDE
[15:37] <Goldline> howto fix this?
[15:37] <tumii> izinucs: I want a bigger resolution at now thanks. and it was 8800 not 9800
[15:37] <kexman_> and contact is a gmail address :)
[15:37] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that there was no encrypt option when I right clicked on it.
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: remove the repo in software sources
[15:37] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Is that even possible/
[15:37] <tumii> I uninstalled the driver i downloaded from nvidia site by "--uninstall" and nvidia-current is installed.
[15:37] <icarus-c> venilsurya, what
[15:37] <tumii> what the ****
[15:37] <yapsol> By now I'm not terribly worried about performance. I just need to share some applications between Windows and Ubuntu.
[15:38] <Goldline> coammdn?
[15:38] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Installing both Gnome and KDE
[15:38] <napster> ActionParsnip: Thank for the help :-)
[15:38] <Goldline> command?
[15:38] <icarus-c> venilsurya, why not
[15:38] <yapsol> Firefox and Thunderbird work out of the box.
[15:38] <izinucs> tumii: yes..part of the issue is the way you installed the driver.. remove it and install the PPA for the latest driver or use the driver provided by ubuntu in system>Admin>hardware drivers...
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> tumii: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings
[15:38] <Sean93> icarus-c: do i need another partition for sharing data? i have an NTFS external, could i use that?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: use the item in system -> admin
[15:38] <icarus-c> Sean93, yes you could.
[15:38] <izinucs> ActionParsnip: he needs to uninstall the binary first..
[15:38] <Goldline> so ii have to remove all getdeb.net links?
[15:38] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Does that mean I can put two desktops in the same OS - I'm confused, really!
[15:38] <Goldline> under other software
[15:39] <tumii> ActionParsnip: okay i'll try that, thanks
[15:39] <yapsol> ┬ĄTorrent required some extra work, I needed to install it on an ext2 partition and drivers to mount it on Windows.
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> izinucs: i havent used the binary package in years
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> tumii: you do need to remove the current one first
[15:39] <tumii> how?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: pretty much
[15:39] <tumii> sudo ./nvidia.run --uninstall has been done
[15:39] <Sean93> icarus-c:  how would i set up a partition for sharing between windows and linux?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> tumii: no idea, i havent used that in years, find out how online
[15:39] <JimmyHoffa> i followed a howtogeek tutorial to move ubuntu's windows icons back to the right but the tutorial says that just rearranging the buttons order sends them back to the right but it doesn't. Does anyone know how?
[15:39] <Russel> ciao a tutti
[15:39] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: ever heared about UberStudent linux distro ? :)
[15:39] <yapsol> I also have an old version of Free Download Manager working on both systems, but it crashes when I try to download FTP files under Ubuntu/Wine.
[15:40] <icarus-c> Sean93, for me, i have a  15GB / ; 5GB /home; 70GB Win7; and the rest to a NTFS partition.  and create symbolic links in /home/$USER/ to point to the NTFS storage
[15:40] <tumii> ActionParsnip: but anyway thanks for the command, it seems to be installing something now
[15:40] <tumii> hey how can i move the window buttons from left to right??
[15:40] <icarus-c> Sean93, like linking ~/Documents  ~/Music ...etc  to the NTFS partition
[15:40] <yapsol> I'm using MLdonkey for FTP. It also works out of the box on Windows and Ubuntu.
[15:40] <ZykoticK9> !controls | tumii
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> tumii: stick to the packages, its makes life easier
[15:40] <Goldline> its working ur awesome!
[15:40] <Goldline> Reading package lists... Done
[15:40] <tumii> ActionParsnip: Yes yes
[15:41] <yapsol> All this sharing is needed because the downloads *must never stop*.
[15:41] <Goldline> thanks
[15:41] <tumii> I reset X now, we'll see what happens
[15:41] <apostolos> ŽĆ╬┐Žā ŽāŽä╬▒╬╝╬▒Žä╬▒╬Ą╬╣ Žä╬┐ wget
[15:41] <Sean93> are there any advantage to using ext4 over NTFS?
[15:41] <apostolos> na katevazi oeo
[15:41] <icarus-c> Sean93, well to share files between windows & linux you need to use a file system that both of them support. i prefer NTFS for this
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: you can access ftp using nautilus
[15:41] <yapsol> I know
[15:41] <thaDM> tumii: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/13535/move-window-buttons-back-to-the-right-in-ubuntu-10.04/
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: ext4 doesn't fragment is one huge advantage
[15:41] <icarus-c> Sean93, yes. for example ext4 support Unix file permissions while NTFS doesn't
[15:41] <tumii> thaDM: i got it thanks
[15:41] <kv10t> anyone tell me why Brasero error when using ISO files (more than one). http://pastebin.com/MsnNwS1m
[15:42] <yapsol> But I can't continue the Windows FDM FTP downloads when I'm running Linux.
[15:42] <yapsol> So I switched to MLdonkey for FTP.
[15:42] <icarus-c> Sean93, and ext4 perform better than ntfs
[15:42] <ubuntulxdeaa> what's the benefits LVM has over losetup ?
[15:42] <droopal> I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on my pc, the problem I have is, since upgrading from 10.04 the numbers at the side of the keyboard wont work.
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: ive had no joy wit brasero, i always use gnomebaker
[15:43] <ubuntulxdeaa> droopal: is Num lock's light on?
[15:43] <yapsol> ubuntulxdeaa, adding extra storage is easier with LVM.
[15:43] <droopal> yes
[15:43] <nakaori> can anyone help with ftpmirror?
[15:44] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: the main problem with losetup is that I cannot find any way to get the loopback devices to be created automatically at startup
[15:44] <droopal> on the numbers 8, 2, 4 and 6 have arrows in the same keys, and the arrows work instead
[15:44] <yapsol> you could use /etc/rc.local to create the loopback devices
[15:45] <yapsol> I use /etc/rc.local to detect VirtualBox and mount my drives properly. Under Windows it uses the VirtualBox shared folders and under Ubuntu I mount the physical partitions.
[15:45] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: but that's not a very purist method. For instance, if I want to mount those loopback devices automatically as well it won't work, since fstab will be launched before the rc.local thing
[15:46] <yapsol> I setup my system so that I can boot Ubuntu and use the same installation inside VirtualBox.
[15:46] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: Does it have the same utils?
[15:46] <yapsol> If purism solves your problem then go for it.
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: as far as I know yes, give it a go
[15:46] <cybastl> is there a known bug in the softwarecenter?
[15:46] <cybastl> whenever i legetimate a new installtion
[15:47] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: Already starting to look for it.
[15:47] <v3rr3z> Hi, I was just wondering: Is there anything special I have to do to Ubuntu 32 bit to make it support dual core processor better.. it seems my install is running slow.
[15:47] <cybastl> the windows that asks me to do that wont dissapeare
[15:47] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: it's not just a matter of purism :) It's a matter of fstab being launched before rc.local is even thought about
[15:47] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: i'll let you know
[15:47] <yapsol> ubuntulxdeaa: Oh. Then I don't know how to help you.
[15:47] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click option there was no encrypt option.
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: sudo apt-get install gnomebaker   whats to search for, you know the name
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: you can add: mount -a   in /etc/rc.local   and it'll be ok
[15:49] <v3rr3z> Anyone?
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: the 32bit ISO has SMP in the kernel so suports mulicore
[15:49] <v3rr3z> Alright..  Configured video chip.. no
[15:50] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: that's probably feasible. Invoking /etc/rc.local in this order: 1) losetup, in order to create a loopback device from a file 2) cryptsetup, in order to create a mapped encrypted device 3) mount, in order to mount such device into /tmp. The thing is that I am not sure where in the bootup process is rc.local launched, i.e. it may be launched after the system has already created its own /tmp directory at / , m
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: if you run:  lspci | grep -i vga    it'll tell you what it is, you can then websearch for guides
[15:51] <Legend_Xeon> Greetz :)
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: i believe it's just before the login screen / prompt schows, like the last stage ever
[15:52] <Legend_Xeon> I have a question.
[15:52] <etheretic1> Is there a program which compares the contents of several harddisks making duplicate and triplicate ++ files known? Preferably gui.
[15:52] <v3rr3z> nVidia Corporation C51 [Quadro NVS 210S/GeForce 6150LE] (rev a2)
[15:53] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: that would prove problematic most likely, don't you think? i.e. trying to mount all this once the system has given up trying to mount some lines of fstab
[15:53] <Legend_Xeon> Can i trust ubuntu to make online transcations ?
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: if the partition is already mounted it will be ignored
[15:54] <Bada> Legend_Xeon: hehe of course you can
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: you can also add a few more specific mount commands in the file instead
[15:54] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: of course, there's the "solution" of removing all references to /tmp or /dev/loop0 from "fstab" and invoke a complete mount command from rc.local, but that doesn't solve my doubts about the system creating /tmp at / before rc.local is invoked
[15:54] <yapsol> etheretic1: this is from Google: http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/easily-manage-duplicate-files-and-save-storage-space/
[15:55] <Legend_Xeon> Thanks Bada. What extra security features can i configure in ubuntu ?
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: thats all i got dude
[15:55] <kuttenbrunzer_> the package "build-essential" has no more the "configure" command. Which package has it?
[15:55] <yapsol> Legend_Xeon: noscript for firefox if you know what you're doing
[15:56] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: I am a persistent person :)
[15:56] <Bada> Legend_Xeon: There is nothing to configure, just use chrome or firefox as you would on any other OS.
[15:56] <Legend_Xeon> ok
[15:56] <Nach0z> hello hello. How would I ping a website in Terminal? like in windows CMD? it doenst seem to want to work in ubuntu....
[15:56] <what_thef_ever> man, I just installed Glib and it completely fucked my GNOME
[15:56] <thiebaude> !language
[15:56] <icarus-c> Legend_Xeon, just general network security matters. like encrypted wireless network
[15:56] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: if it doesn't work, either your connection is down or you have some sort of dns problem
[15:57] <icarus-c> Nach0z, ping google.com
[15:57] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: i mean i dont really know the command or the subtleties behind it
[15:57] <Legend_Xeon> thanks
[15:57] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: ping , just like in Windows
[15:57] <what_thef_ever> will someone help me solve my problem?
[15:57] <RudyValencia> kuttenbrunzer_: I think it's in autoconf
[15:58] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: it wasnt  accepting it with the HTTP:// prefix. but thanks. works now
[15:58] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, do you happen to update glib alone but not all those which use glib?
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: don't use http://
[15:58] <candy_> hiiii
[15:58] <what_thef_ever> icarus what do you mean?
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: just try "ping www.yahoo.com"
[15:58] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: yeah that's what i jsut figured out from that :P it works now.
[15:58] <what_thef_ever> I downloaded the source code, compiled and installd it and now by Ubuntu is smashed to peices
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> :)
[15:58] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click options there was no encrypt option.
[15:59] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, say you updated glib from  version x to y.  while the rest of gnome depends on glib version x.  therefore it breaks
[15:59] <kuttenbrunzer_> RudyValenc: its not in autoconf :(
[15:59] <ubuntulxdeaa> icarus-c: the question is, why did apt-get allow such update given that it was destined to break?
[15:59] <what_thef_ever> How can I found out what version of Glib shipped with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS?
[15:59] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, did he say he update with apt-get?
[16:00] <kuttenbrunzer_> RudyValencia: its not in autoconf
[16:00] <ubuntulxdeaa> icarus-c: no, I just figured it out... how else could he have done it? via dpkg -i ?
[16:00] <candy_> hiiiii
[16:00] <yapsol> I wonder if/when Ubuntu will adopt the BSD kernel as an option. Jails would be nice.
[16:01] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, don't ask me :P
[16:01] <Bada> candy_: Yo Yo'
[16:01] <RudyValencia> oh I thought it was
[16:01] <candy_> :PPPP
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> icarus do you know how I can find out what version of Glib Ubuntu 10.04 LTS shipped with?
[16:01] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, are you on 10.04 ?
[16:01] <icarus-c> !info glib
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> or what version of Glib my GNOME requires?
[16:01] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: that would be far better than the current rc.d maze which nobody (me, at least) can understand. If they adopted the BSD style - like Arch - it would all be much more understandable and pedagogic
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> Yes, I use 10.04 LTS.
[16:02] <icarus-c> what is it called :P
[16:02] <what_thef_ever> icarus yes I use 10.04 LTS.
[16:02] <yapsol> what_thef_ever, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[16:03] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: how did you go about updating Glib?
[16:03] <fewboo> There is of course an a debian distro version that comes with BSD kernel
[16:03] <what_thef_ever> thanks yapsol, I will check this out now
[16:03] <yapsol> yes, debian kFreeBSD I think.
[16:03] <ubuntulxdeaa> fewboo: does such Debian distro have a different rc.d structure (i.e. more similar to Arch's init scripts)?
[16:04] <what_thef_ever> ubuntulxdeaa, I never intended on updating it. I was compiling an application call Audacious and it said I needed the Glib library, so I downloaded the source of Glib 2.26 and ./configure, make, make install, and then my system was stuffed.
[16:04] <fewboo> There is also nexenta.  The new release just came out and it has opensolaris kernel with debian programs
[16:04] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: I see. The old problem of breaking one's own system due to not abiding exclusively to apt-get install usage
[16:04] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, ubuntu ships adacious too
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> I was not aware of this
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> Im new
[16:05] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, seriously, avoid ./configure && make && make install
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> Really?
[16:05] <icarus-c> it breaks stuff
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> icarus why is that?
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> oh I see.
[16:05] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: you may avoid several headaches if you reinstall your system and abide by "sudo apt-get install"
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> So my problem is common?
[16:05] <magedragon25> anyone here familiar with vmware server?
[16:06] <shubbar> ms wireless optical 700 should work with ubuntu?
[16:06] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: yeah, most people have broken their system either by that or dpkg -i
[16:06] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it would proudly overwrite system components. and not notifying package manager, you may likely have no way to trace it/remove it
[16:06] <what_thef_ever> the system does not require a re-install. I don't think.
[16:06] <aurelio> ciao a tutti
[16:06] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, dpkg -i is still fine
[16:06] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: the moment you don't "limit" yourself to your distro's repositories, you have to accept the risk of breaking your system, which is fine, but one has to accept it as inevitable
[16:06] <aurelio> !list
[16:06] <crunch2> Hi, i would like to know if there is any quick way to put colors in the terminal?
[16:07] <gopper> I'm using Empathy's IRC protocol. Is there a way to close any channel chat window, without actually leaving the channel?
[16:07] <devunt> Is Hardy is out of support now?
[16:07] <jiangjunqiang> hi
[16:07] <ubuntulxdeaa> gopper: I don't know whether "/window close" would work...
[16:07] <what_thef_ever> so how can I go about fixing it?
[16:07] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, if you need to install something and can't find a package for it, package one. if you really can't package.  at least  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local/    instead
[16:07] <ubuntulxdeaa> gopper: you'd probably leave the channel as well
[16:07] <shubbar> I cannot get a wireless keyboard working... would appreciate some help
[16:07] <devunt> !hardy
[16:07] <yapsol> I still remember my first installation destroyed by compilation. Ages ago, I thought that it would be advisable to compile glibc because software X required it and I broke totally the Red Hat installation.
[16:07] <devunt> !lts
[16:08] <what_thef_ever> isn't the 'make' command that makes a package?
[16:08] <yapsol> Good times.   Update Manager on my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop only shows that I can upgrade to 10.04.1 LTS, it doesn't show 10.10 as an option.   I do have the "Normal Releases" selected for "Show new distribution releases" option in Upgrade Manager.
[16:11] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, apititude search libglib2
[16:11] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: I'd follow the "sudo apt-get install glib" route, but I cannot guarantee this would work. Also, consider invoking "sudo apt-get remove glib" (or libglib2 or whatever) before. There's also the option --fix-missing (to apt-get) but again I have barely tried all this
[16:11] <cannonball> Will it not let me skip two release levels like that, or is there something else going on?
[16:12] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, by the way, audacious is in ubuntu repo. you could install by  apt-get install audaciosu
[16:12] <RudyValencia> Check what kind of keyboard you have set up in System > Preferences > Keyboard
[16:12] <yapsol> cannonball, I think you need to update to 10.04.1 LTS first
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> i wanted to compile it
[16:12] <cannonball> yapsol: ok, thanks.
[16:12] <RudyValencia> Layouts tab
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> im sick of wizards
[16:12] <droopal> what should it be
[16:12] <b3rz3rk3r> Hi guys, iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. how do i enable it?
[16:12] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, grab the package source to start with
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> i wanna see the internals
[16:12] <magedragon25> cannonball, I had that issue before and I think it goes one release at a time...
[16:12] <yapsol> then update from 10.04.1 LTS to 10.10
[16:12] <RudyValencia> droopal: What kind of keyboard do you have?
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> it interests me
[16:12] <cannonball> roger that, thanks guys.
[16:12] <droopal> it is an Advent, and there isnt anything in Keyboard for an Advent
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> better understanding of computers
[16:12] <kv10t> how can i see what usb devices I have pugged in.
[16:13] <droopal> I also have a Logitech, nothing there for that either
[16:13] <magedragon25> kv10t, go in to terminal and type lsusb -a
[16:13] <droopal> they are brand new, as I had an older keyboard I thought might be broken, and bought two new keyboards, still the same
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> im so stuffed
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> i cant find glib
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> or gliblib2
[16:13] <nibbler_> i use gopenvpn to connect my vpns, as sadly nm is not that powerfull. however, everytime i start this up, i have to enter my sudo-password. how can i avoid this? network manager can handle my vpns without that, too :/
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> this is why linux will never rule
[16:13] <RudyValencia> droopal: Try Generic > Generic 104-key PC
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> retarded designs
[16:13] <ljsoftnet> is it safe to blacklist my wireless network card? its a netbook
[16:14] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, libglib2
[16:14] <kv10t> -a does not exist
[16:14] <kv10t> ubuntu 10.4
[16:14] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, why is linux involved :P
[16:14] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: ubuntu is not a good distro in order to compile things, from my viewpoint (and this point is to some extent supported by the fact that build-essential and the C compilers don't come with the standard installation). My advice, if you want to try things other than the repositories would be to download static binaries: these are .tgz as well, but they don't need compilation, they work out of the box once unta
[16:14] <droopal> nope, didnt make any difference
[16:14] <what_thef_ever> apt-get does not recognize glib or libglib2
[16:15] <droopal> still doesnt work
[16:15] <magedragon25> kv10t, sorry, just lsusb
[16:15] <b3rz3rk3r> Hi guys, iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. how do i enable it?
[16:15] <kv10t> magefragon25: i have a use mic/headset in USB.  should it show up if working.
[16:15] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it is called libglib2<something>
[16:15] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, search for it
[16:15] <magedragon25> kv10t, yes
[16:15] <what_thef_ever> libglib2-0
[16:16] <ljsoftnet> is it safe to blacklist my wireless network card? its a netbook
[16:16] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, like "libglib2.0-0"  in 10.10
[16:16] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: libglib2.0-0
[16:16] <kv10t> magefragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:16] <what_thef_ever> awesome
[16:16] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: libglib2.0-dev
[16:16] <what_thef_ever> somethings happening :D
[16:17] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it must be complaining file already exists / conflicts
[16:17] <zamarax> anyone know why I get this error? udevd-work[411]: '/sbin/blkid -o udev -p /dev/sda2' unexpected exit with status 0x000b I had to manually update my fstab file to mount my windows partition and now I get thrown this error on every boot
[16:17] <what_thef_ever> sudo apt-get remove libglib2.0-0 is responding
[16:17] <kv10t> magedragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:17] <Rexl> Hey  all, I am trying to install ubuntu server on an ION 330 platform via a USB stick but it keeps getting stuck @ SYSLINK 3.68 2010-04-01 EBIOS blalblala, Any idea what the problem could be?
[16:17] <what_thef_ever> 'After this operation, 1,750MB disk space will be freed.' does this sound right?
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, yes it sounds right. but it probably not the ideal way to fix
[16:18] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: CD 100% no errors. Good so far, thanks
[16:18] <julian_> i have a problem with nvidia force 310M
[16:18] <what_thef_ever> remove and install again? what other way would you recommend?
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it is right because the package manager is not aware of the glib you installed
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, i would reinstall all libglib2* packages
[16:18] <yapsol> if gnome is broken perhaps sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome
[16:18] <yapsol> might fix it?
[16:19] <what_thef_ever> would removing and installing be the same?
[16:19] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, not really, removing it would remove everything depends on it too.
[16:19] <what_thef_ever> i was thinking of removing it then reinstalling it straight away
[16:20] <spotter> c
[16:20] <kv10t> magedragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:20] <magedragon25> have you check dmesg to see if the system registered it?
[16:21] <b3rz3rk3r> iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. does anyone know how i enable it?
[16:22] <icarus-c> b3rz3rk3r, have you try clicking on the network icon at the panel
[16:22] <Rexl> Anyone got an idea why the Installation wont start on my ION 330 platform? I am using Ubuntu server 10.04 32bits
[16:22] <b3rz3rk3r> icarus-c, yes, it says disabled as well
[16:22] <icarus-c> b3rz3rk3r, both left/right keys
[16:22] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: on mine I rebooted and then was able to see wireless networks and connect
[16:23] <Kofte> hi
[16:23] <b3rz3rk3r> rob0917, iv already rebooted once since that usually fixes things, but no effect
[16:24] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: oh,don't know then but good luck
[16:24] <Icky> i just erased my windows install and installed ubuntu. i still get a "windows boot manager" error message. i'm thinking the bootloader is on a different drive than windows was installed, how do i remove it?
[16:24] <slimjimflim> how can i get a bash script to execute on double-click from the desktop etc?
[16:25] <Kofte> Long shot question: I'm having problems with the sound on an Acer Aspire laptop.  I know this problem is quite common, but I couldn't find a working solution.  Anybody knows anything helpful regarding this issue?
[16:25] <b3rz3rk3r> iv checked the wireless troubleshooting guide and it said to ask here and forums :/
[16:25] <icarus-c> Icky, install grub over it
[16:26] <icarus-c> slimjimflim, give it execute permissions, double click, select run in terminal
[16:26] <Icky> icarus-c: using a burned grub cd image?
[16:26] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: just a thought .Have you tried unplugging your router for 30 seconds then try to connect
[16:27] <slimjimflim> icarus-c: i have 'execute' (xubuntu)
[16:27] <ChaosR> when using xvnc4 to create an extra vnc desktop, it crashes every time if I try to connect to it with the error "XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server"
[16:27] <icarus-c> Icky, eh.. no    if you have ubuntu already installed,  boot up a livecd, chroot to the ubuntu install and reinstall grub
[16:27] <ChaosR> anybody knows how to solve?
[16:27] <slimjimflim> and that doesn't do anything
[16:27] <slimjimflim> icarus-c: executes fine from cli
[16:27] <b3rz3rk3r> rob0917, its not a router issue since all my other devices connect fine. The wireless module on this laptop is detected and has  driver but cant be enabled for some reason :/
[16:27] <icarus-c> slimjimflim, i don't use xfce (thundar),  so no idea
[16:27] <slimjimflim> k
[16:28] <rob0917> I see ,just trying to help

[16:30] <eric_> does anyone know what ever happened to the buttons ubuntu 10.10 was supposed to have on the left side of the screen?
[16:31] <Taejo> eric_: my mom's computer has that (I don't use metacity) so presumably it's a setting somewhere
[16:31] <Taejo> I doubt she changed anything
[16:32] <jiohdi> eric_: thats the UNITY desktop
[16:32] <Guest26294> I have a kernel module. It needs an option. I wrote the option to modprobe.conf. I wrote the option to /etc/modprobe.d/file.conf. It gets ignored at boot time.

[16:32] <jiohdi> eric_: its a work in progress, not for the faint of heart
[16:33] <eric_> jiohdi: ah, just curious, i remember hearing a lot about it, then everyone started talking about everything else

[16:35] <jiohdi> eric_: its not completely intuitive and it is a bit sluggish, but it looks nice
[16:37] <ehcah> If I need to grow my system drive and it is locked, wouldn't unmounting it first delete my current session?
[16:37] <jiohdi> ehcah: you need to use an external live disc like puppy or ubuntu live and do it from ram
[16:38] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click options there was no encrypt option.

[16:38] <ehcah> ji0hdi: Do you know if the 10.10 ISO has the option to boot from CD? I did not pay attention when I installed a few days back.
[16:38] <The_Snake> ehcah - use a live cd or pen, and tah use gparted
[16:38] <Gerwin> ehcah: Yes, it's a Live CD
[16:39] <ehcah> Thank you folks.

[16:42] <ChaosR> Dr_Willis: point is, the vnc server on this computer crashes the second I connect to it
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> ChaosR:  theres other vncservers out there. vnc4server, tightvncserver, and i think a few more.

[16:56] <mokchuk> I was wondering if anyone you help with a basic I/O question. I've a programmer who's started moving over from windows, so I'm learning a fair amount from scratch. I have managed to use standard output to list directories into a file, now I want to read back from that file line by line, but wrap text around each line. The text will be a command to list the contents of that directory and output that. I know how to read t

[17:06] <kilmarnock> I have a kernel module. It needs an option. I wrote the option to modprobe.conf. I wrote the option to /etc/modprobe.d/file.conf. It gets ignored at boot time. If I manually do
[17:06] <kilmarnock>  rmmod i915
[17:06] <kilmarnock> modprobe i915
[17:06] <kilmarnock>  the option gets loaded from modprobe.conf. Why does it get ignored at boot time?

[17:11] <fewboo>  I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click options there was no encrypt option.
[17:11] <gilaniali> How does one judge a VPS server, if two VPS hosts are providing the same Mb Ram partitions, how does one choose one
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> fewboo:  You may need to install some extra packages for that feature
[17:12] <step21> gilaniali, I would try to find reviews about service etc on the net
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[17:13] <rallias> Is there a way to tell postfix to send mail to different servers based on the domain of the server sending to?
[17:13] <magedragon25> who's paying attention that knows about vmware server??
[17:13] <rallias> magedragon25: whats your question?
[17:13] <JimmyHoffa> how do i get ubuntu to notice a printer thats on my network?
[17:13] <stax321> guys can you look at this screenshot, what is the problem here? http://trcll.im/xBtoZ?image_id=aba768a6cdf65ef12dc390cf03
[17:14] <stax321> oh shit the wrong link
[17:14] <rallias> JimmyHoffa: You select the proper driver, then identify what ip address the printer is at, then when it asks you for the ip address of the printer, you give it the ip address.
[17:14] <magedragon25> rallias, get to the part about the headers directory, and it says that my headers aren't the right version, which they are.....tried to re-install and even switched to a different kernel.....
[17:14] <IdleOne> !language | stax321
[17:15] <JimmyHoffa> where do i find the driver rallias?
[17:15] <rallias> In system -> administration -> printing
[17:15] <poine>  #ubuntustudio
[17:15] <rallias> magedragon25: what version?
[17:16] <magedragon25> server 2.0.2 and ubuntu 10.10 both 64 bit
[17:16] <vincent_> do you have the guts to commit suicide?
[17:16] <rallias> umm.. i really don't know then. Last I used was 1.0.1
[17:16] <magedragon25> oh...ok
[17:16] <wildc4rd_> evenin' all
[17:16] <magedragon25> thanks
[17:16] <ePirat> hi
[17:17] <rallias> vincent_: don't be serious. I have 2 friends of mine that commited suicide the day before the day before yesterday.
[17:17] <gilaniali> but is there a VPS service that ubuntu servers prefer
[17:17] <vincent_> :'(
[17:17] <gilaniali> step21: ^
[17:17] <rallias> magedragon25: I never had a problem with virtualbox though... don't know if thats what you need.
[17:17] <ePirat> how can i open the settings in the terminal? i mean wich command i need?
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  what settings?
[17:18] <vincent_> we all have to die some day, don't we? otherwise it gets too crowded here on earth
[17:18] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: system settings
[17:18] <magedragon25> rallias, it's for some clooage class stuff and it has to be vmware server
[17:18] <kuro> ŃüōŃéōŃü½ŃüĪŃü»
[17:18] <matts45acp> can someone tell me if i install ubuntu from a usb and i wanna dual boot (not wubi) will it partition for me
[17:18] <magedragon25> ...sollege'
[17:18] <magedragon25> college
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  and.. which system setting? You want to run the PROGRAM from the termiinal? or what exactly?
[17:18] <aloon> Still having problems with Nividia-current with 10.10. I got the 310M nvidia driver in and it works but I can not enable 3d desktop effects , ive tried to uninstall all compiz and reinstall from canoical etc , jockey doesnt see the driver, i'm on Sony Vaio F11
[17:18] <tom1> my menubar keeps disappearing.  How can I stop this from happening?
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  the installer can auto resize/partition - yes.
[17:18] <kuro> good night
[17:18] <rallias> magedragon25: why? did they say?
[17:18] <step21> gilaniali, don't think so. if it can run linux it can run ubuntu
[17:18] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu recognize my firs HD, where it is installed, but the second one no. It is a NTFS file system
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> tom1:  you mean the gnome panel? or the windows titlebars?
[17:19] <aloon> Nvidia used to be so easy
[17:19] <raven_> what is a live system for cluster nodes??
[17:19] <tom1> I believe its the gnome panel.
[17:19] <happolati> Hello friendly community. I have a problem playing swf videos. When I open a youtube video f.ex, it plays for one second then stops. gtk-gnash is using approx. 30% of CPU's resources. Can someone help me figure out what is happening? I am running gnash 0.8.8.
[17:19] <ePirat> Dr_Willis:  i want to open the gnome display settings panel
[17:19] <rallias> magedragon25: virtualbox is capible of exactly the same stuff... just a touch slower (maybe 50 kHz less power.
[17:19] <vincent_> rallias, so I guess you have the guts to do it?
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  windows (some versions) can resize the windows partitions. and do it a lot faster then the ubuntuy installer can. thats how i normaly do it. let windows resize. then boot ubuntu installer. and let it partition the freed up unallocated space.
[17:19] <rallias> vincent_ this really isn't the appropriate location to speak of such a topic.
[17:20] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  perhasp you want to run --> gnome-display-properties
[17:20] <magedragon25> rallias...that's it...it's faster...setting up a testing situation...server and client in vm for rhct studying
[17:20] <george> hey does anyone know any hacking tool kit for linux ubuntu 10.10
[17:20] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, This is not what I was talking about.  In all previous versions of ubuntu you could get the encryption option in the right click menu now that is not the case and the page you gave me is about some thing else all together.
[17:20] <rallias> magedragon25: rhct?
[17:20] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: YES! THX!
[17:20] <matts45acp> dr willis,   how much space should i use
[17:21] <Phi-Linux> Hi all. Does anyone know a good command line tool to post facebook status updates?
[17:21] <magedragon25> rallias, redhat certified technician
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> fewboo:  never nioticed it.  must be some extra nautiuls extension or somthing.
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  depends on your needs.
[17:21] <matts45acp> and whats the number to type in to tell it that space
[17:21] <matts45acp> i dont need much really
[17:21] <Gerwin> %20?
[17:21] <george> does anyone know any hacking tool kit for ubuntu
[17:21] <matts45acp> just enough to fool around with it
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  try 20gb then perhaps.
[17:21] <edbian> george, The terminal
[17:21] <rallias> magedragon25: try running the stuff from a redhat machine if your trying to get certified in it.
[17:22] <Gerwin> george: Ping, netstat, openssh :P
[17:22] <sresu> Its possible to rsyn over ssh?
[17:22] <Gerwin> That should get you started
[17:22] <magedragon25> that's why I need vmware server....so i can study at home
[17:22] <matts45acp> i may just let ubuntu unstaller partition, it will be easier for me
[17:22] <rallias> george: gcc, gpp, g#
[17:22] <george> thanx
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> magedragon25:  virtualbox i found to be MUCH easier to setup then vmware.
[17:22] <vincent_> rallias is there a proper place to speak of such things?
[17:22] <mokchuk> hhmmm
[17:22] <vincent_> rallias where is it?
[17:22] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu detect my firs HD, where it is installed, but the second one no: it only tell me the size but  It does nothing about the content.  It's a NTFS file system
[17:23] <magedragon25> I have used virtualbox....i like vmware better
[17:23] <aloon> glx gears works for me now  ,nvidia splashscreen comes on and i get the nvidia settings manager , but no 3d effects , the screen blinks a bunch and then it always says "cant enable desktop effects" , anyone have that issue ?
[17:23] <rallias> vincent_ i don't know if its perfectly appropriate, but #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:23] <sresu> Hi Dr_Willis
[17:23] <Skaperen> is there a meta package to install all the KDE packages from kubuntu to ubuntu, so you'd have a merger of the two desktop systems, letting users individually choose between gnome and KDE ?
[17:23] <rallias> magedragon25: how do you like something that is obviously not doing what your asking it to do?
[17:23] <rallias> Skaperen: try kubuntu-desktop
[17:23] <Dr_Willis> rallias:  :) i was just thinking that also...
[17:23] <v3rr3z> Whats the lost+found folders on my Secondary and Tertiary HDDs?
[17:24] <magedragon25> I had vmware player...just need to use server for this
[17:24] <Skaperen> rallias: t/y
[17:24] <rallias> Dr_Willis: thats exactly why I shy from windows.
[17:24] <rallias> skaperen: yw
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> v3rr3z:  if the filesystem is fscked and files are found  - then can get put in there.
[17:24] <aloon> Jockey cant see my nvidia driver either
[17:24] <aloon> so I cant enable it that way
[17:24] <v3rr3z> Nothing to worry about.. Just something it will do..
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  You could install the nvidia-current package.
[17:24] <vincent_> rallias it's not encouraged to speak about it there either
[17:24] <rallias> can someone help me set up my apache web server via webmin interface?
[17:24] <v3rr3z> I have a forth set in Fat32 and it doesnt have them.. is why I asked.
[17:24] <chocobanana> Hi everyone!!!!
[17:25] <rallias> vincent_: try #suicide_kabana
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> rallias:  better to not use webmin at all.
[17:25] <aloon> Dr , thx , that worked in Lucid , but not in 10.10
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  it worked for me here in 10.10 just today. :)
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  may depend on the video card I guess.
[17:25] <Skaperen> rallias: sorry, I've only set up apache via emacs on config files
[17:25] <rallias> Dr_Willis: I don't have access to the ssh atm.
[17:25] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: and wich is the command for the login window properties? (where i can set auto-login, display start sound...)
[17:25]  * Skaperen has done too much command line in his life
[17:25] <aloon> tried many times , was steered towards a download from nvidia site that works , it did .. but I cant enable desktop effects
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  try 'gnome<tabkey>' and see..    are you missing all your menus or somting?
[17:25] <aloon> I think its a compiz issue
[17:26] <rallias> Skaperen: can you send me example config files?
[17:26] <vincent_> that room is empty rallias
[17:26] <rallias> !spam vincent_
[17:26] <krannx> All of the windows on my widget layer move up on the screen ~100px every time I open it, they go right off the screen if I just hit F9 over and over...why? even setting the windows to be unmovable in window rules doesnt do anything
[17:26] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: yes, i have a strange bug...
[17:26] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, yes it is called crypt-manager.py
[17:26] <vincent_> spam!
[17:26] <Dr_Willis> !find crypt-manager.py
[17:26] <vincent_> !spam
[17:26] <Skaperen> rallias: the ones I did under ubuntu server are at work ... my apache at home is not ubuntu
[17:26] <aloon> Dr_Willis I tried uninstalling all compiz and then reinstall it from sotware centre , but it didnt seem to do it
[17:27] <rallias> Skaperen: don't matter i am semi-intelligent enough to adapt them.
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  thats windows thinking.  :)
[17:27] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu detect my firs HD, where it is installed, but the not the second one: it only tell me the size but nothing about the content. It's a NTFS file system. Please help needed
[17:27] <aloon> i'll get it eventually , at least the nvidia driver works
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  if theres some driver/compiz issue with your specific video chipset. the forums may have some mention of it also.
[17:27] <chocobanana> Anyone has a recommendation for a good wireless router that, more importantly than speed, can handle many (15-30) wireless clients without crashing or slowing down?
[17:27] <rallias> zangyef: look for a folder /dev/sdb1
[17:27] <Skaperen> rallias: it's also older Apache ... really, not a good examble
[17:28] <rallias> Skaperen: If i give you ssh access will you do it for me?
[17:28] <VoidBeta> Hey, folks -- I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 (amd64) and upon reboot after install, I get a black screen with a blinking grey cursor, and no further action. Any ideas?
[17:28] <aloon> Dr_Willis it may have to do with ubuntu tweak ... they have a couple levels of compiz installs and then theres the ones that come with
[17:28] <rallias> chocobanana: anything wireless N
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> VoidBeta:  ive had issues where ive had to  reinstall the grub menu after an install. or after some updates.. it gives a similer 'blinking cursor'
[17:28] <rallias> chocobanana: try lots of wireless repeaters.
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> !fixgrub | VoidBeta
[17:29] <VoidBeta> Thanks!
[17:29] <fearphage> i just upgraded to 10.10 and now my desktop icons are missing and i can't rightclick on the desktop. already tried running nautilus but that just opens a folder view. tried restarting x with ctrl-alt-backspace. still nothing. any help?
[17:29] <Skaperen> rallias: I could at a later time ... but not right now ... how many domains are you trying to do?
[17:29] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: seems like there are no login settings...
[17:29] <rallias> Skaperen: just one
[17:29] <chocobanana> rallias: repeaters? The issue is not range, it's mostly handling a lot of clients.... You think the repeaters can still help?
[17:29] <zangyef> rallias: no such a folder
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> VoidBeta:  some how i managed to make a usb flash drive with grub2 on it. that managed to boot my system. :) so if it goofs up. i boot the flash drive.. that boots the HD.. i rerun sudo update-grub
[17:29] <Skaperen> rallias: any SSL/HTTPS in it?
[17:30] <ddaygold> is there a way to have two network interfaces (wifi and a cell phone modem) be up simultaneously and route bittorent through one and web brower traffic through the other?
[17:30] <rallias> chocobanana: repeaters are used to make multiple clients look like one
[17:30] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: the problem is, that i enabled auto-login, now i have this bug, now i want to turn it off again but i have no menus
[17:30] <rallias> ddaygold: yes. How you do it is a different question...
[17:30] <Skaperen> ddaygold: yes, via complex source routing
[17:30] <rallias> ddaygold: it involves using iptables
[17:31] <zayr> how to install alsa against pulsecrapaudio ?
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  you can always go to the console and 'sudo service gdm stop'  i guess.. theres some binary that had all the gnome-settings icons in it.. i saw today.. but not sure what the binary name was
[17:31] <ddaygold> @rallias: how do you get  my name in front like that?
[17:31] <rallias> zangyef: hate to ask such a question... is the power cable in the hard drive plugged in?
[17:31] <rallias> ddaygold: by typing in ddaygold:
[17:32] <zangyef> rallias: I found the hd using Disk Utility. The folder is dev/sdb. But no other information
[17:32] <zayr> whats the package ?
[17:32] <ddaygold> oh, nothing special then
[17:32] <teage> is ethernet address the same as mac address??
[17:32] <rallias> zangyef: try using gparted
[17:32] <rallias> teage: essentually yes
[17:32] <khalidmian> hi newbie here need help with ubuntu install
[17:32] <ddaygold> rallias: thanks
[17:32] <teage> ty rallias
[17:32] <zayr> none knows ?
[17:32] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: i am confused now... o.O
[17:32] <khalidmian> what install is better grub or wubi
[17:32] <zayr> !help
[17:32] <rallias> teage: ethernet address is an old name for mac address from the days that more then one computer connected to a router using one line.
[17:32] <elvirolo> hi everyone
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  i got an icon here called 'control center' that has all the gnome settings tools/icons in it...
[17:33] <AnthIste> hi guys, how do you get a wallpaper to stretch across two monitors under gnome?
[17:33] <teage> to see my eth address is command (Iwconfig) right?
[17:33] <rallias> khalidmian: neither. Wubi is used for sharing space between windows and linux, grub for splitting them up (linux can still read windows and windows can still read linux if you configure properly)
[17:33] <IdleOne> teage: ifconfig
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  it seems to be called 'gnome-control-center'
[17:33] <zangyef> rallias: thanks
[17:33] <rallias> teage: yes. lwconfig eth0 if you want device eth0
[17:33] <teage> thanks IdleOne
[17:33] <elvirolo> I'd like to know how one changes the mount options for USB devices that are mounted automatically when plugged in (my ipod in this case)
[17:33] <Ray2> Lucid 10.04..Upon boot I get an error message.."no suitable mode found" and "unknown command found" How do I fix
[17:34] <rallias> i mean ifconfig
[17:34] <khalidmian> rallias: i installed ubuntu using wubi but can only run in under safe mode
[17:34] <zayr> There is no binary package in ubuntu for alsa ?
[17:34] <zayr> or whatever
[17:34] <rallias> ray2: can you get into the full os?
[17:34] <rallias> khalidmian: i dunno...
[17:34] <jo__> hey everyone, something weard, ubuntu just shuts itself down when I'm importing my rather large music librairy into rythmbox from an external hard drive. Any ideas what it can be, it is rather annoying
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> or whatever? alsa is used by ubuntu, pulse audio uses alsa..
[17:35] <rallias> jo__: doing it one at a time.
[17:35] <asdf_> with ubuntu 10.10 wav file dont work. why ?
[17:35] <Ray2> rallias Yes the distro boots
[17:35] <jo__> rallias: what do you mean?
[17:35] <zayr> Dr_Willis: pulseaudio uses alsa ? :-O
[17:35] <khalidmian>  i installed ubuntu using wubi but can only run in under safe mode as i have an nvidia card i am a new ubuntu user and dont know how to configure my video card
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> zayr:  yes.. thats how it works...
[17:35] <jo__> rallias: I folder a the time? I have a fieuw 1000
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> kernel -> alsa -> pulse audio -> audio apps.
[17:35] <rallias> ray2: go into system -> admin -> synaptic doing a refresh then select upgrades then apply
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> khalidmian:  install the nvida drivers yet?
[17:36] <rallias> jo__ well less then all at a time. Or you could set the music library to that external interface
[17:36] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, I am surprised you never noticed it.  Thanks for the link any way.  I was wondering about why was it that my home folder was not encrypted when I checked that box.  Any way I installed now truecrypt.
[17:36] <jo__> rallias: I also use a .is_audio_player file
[17:36] <zayr> Dr_Willis: alsa and pulseaudio are different things....
[17:36] <rkpisanu> with ubuntu 10.10 wav file doesnt play. why ?
[17:36] <khalidmian> Dr_Willis: i shall reinstall ubuntu and open chat again for assist
[17:36] <rallias> rkpisanu: do you have the decoder installed?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> khalidmian:  i dont reccomend using wubi.
[17:37] <rallias> how do i find ffmpeg-codecs-extras?
[17:37] <rkpisanu> what's decoder rallias ?
[17:37] <khalidmian> Dr_Willis: thanks for info
[17:37] <Ray2> rallias, Thanks
[17:37] <khalidmian> i will install using grub
[17:37] <rallias> rkpisanu: something to decode it so that they can be plaied
[17:37] <rkpisanu> how i can install it  rallias ?
[17:38] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: OH! Thanks it worked!
[17:38] <rallias> rkpisanu: i am trying to find that out. Look for ffmpeg in synaptic and look for extras
[17:38] <AnthIste>  hi guys, how do you get a wallpaper to stretch across two monitors under gnome?

[17:57] <akaedintov> i need help anyone... Why ubuntu is always providing low bandwith ??  In windows it always brings the highest..
[17:57] <StaRetji1> linduxed: maverick, latest
[17:58] <linduxed> StaRetji1: i guess it could have something to do with the session not being authenticated
[17:58] <linduxed> StaRetji1: what DM are you using?
[17:58] <awnek> hello
[17:58] <Skaperen> sib: most of those characters came out as umlauts and the like on my screen

[17:59] <zteam> Hi
[17:59] <awnek> I have been having the worst problem.... I had ubuntu on my netbook but have been unable to install it back. Everytime I get to the select keyboard layout screen it freezes after hitting next... Anyone seen this before?
[18:00] <zteam> Anybody here knows how to change the loginscreen in Ubuntu 10.10?
[18:00] <ikonia> awnek: check the launchpad.net for known bugs, that's a good place to start
[18:00] <akaedintov> i cant see over 1 mbit in ubuntu. but in windows , it was like 4.5 mbits.  Someone help please ?
[18:00] <yapsol> Do you use download managers to achieve these speeds in Windows?
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  you coukld try the alternative installer cd also.
[18:01] <zteam> I used to run gksudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties in 10.04 but doesn't seem to work anymore
[18:01] <cybastl> hi i have a logitech mx510 mouse but only 2 buttons are recognized by ubuntu 10.10
[18:01] <zteam> :-/
[18:01] <pionar> anyone having problems with flash in chromium, as in, it didn't install the plugin?
[18:01] <cybastl> is there an easy way to fix this?
[18:01] <linduxed> it sounds like it's a problem with the authentication, i'd guess that because it autologins it doesn't start an authenticated session
[18:01] <akaedintov> yapsol , these are the results by speedtest.net
[18:01] <linduxed> this is just a guess theough
[18:01] <alkamid> hello
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> cybastl:  i recall there being some wiki pag3es/forums threads on that topic. I never bother with the extra buttons :)
[18:01] <linduxed> StaRetji1: forgot to highligt
[18:02] <alkamid> do you know a memo/flashcard app that allows writing in japanese hiragana (with IBUS)
[18:02] <awnek> Dr. I have seen bugs posted on there but no resolutions... Is there a logfile I can look at?
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  no idea. proberly is. but that early in the boot process.. it may not be easy to access
[18:02] <linduxed> StaRetji1: if it is something like that you need to start xfce with ck-launch-session
[18:02] <alkamid> I've tried Anki and Mnemosyne - none of them allows hiragana
[18:02] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I could agree, how can I autologin with password, or to automatically authenticate. This is making problem, I have xbmc autostarting on my netbook and it hangs because of this. It asks for password and starts xbmc. If I could remove this somehow
[18:03] <awnek> I am installing from a USB drive though
[18:03] <akaedintov> should i be using 10.04 instead of 10.10 ?? 10.10 is not that good i guess.
[18:03] <rww> akaedintov: pick whichever you want to use and use it...
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  the alternavive installer can  be set up on a flash drive and installed from. it uses a text based installer. so often works in problem cases
[18:03] <george> does anybody have any knowledge about rerouting phone calls
[18:03] <akaedintov> rww what difference they have
[18:03] <ikonia> george: that's nothing to do with ubuntu
[18:03] <awnek> I actually might have found a way to get by it... I wasn't able to live run it either but I just selected a strange language for installation screens and that worked
[18:04] <rww> akaedintov: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes has a list of things in 10.10 that aren't in 10.04.
[18:04] <awnek> Dr_Willis: Where can I find some info on the alternative installer?
[18:04] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I've ran ck-launch-session from terminal, but it is still the same
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  i dont even recall it asking for a language here. It defaulted to english. unkless i hit a key to get to the options
[18:04] <Ascavasaion> I have all my mails in a mail folder from a previous installation... how do I get it into my current Evolution?
[18:04] <zayr> part of what package is alsamixer ?
[18:04] <rww> akaedintov: Also of note, 10.04 is supported on desktops until April 2013, whereas 10.10 is supported until April 2012.
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  its avail at the normal ubuntu download sites and torrents.
[18:04] <Xase> So I'm looking to boot my windows 7 retail disc off of a hard drive partition, as now my daughter has sucessfully broken my disc tray, can grub accomplish this?, and does anyone know a rough example entry that'll help me set it up? I am aware I will need to repair grub and have already set up a thumb drive to do so.
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: no
[18:05] <bernard__> can any1 tell me how to share files between 10.04 and xp
[18:05] <zayr> ikonia: Hi could you help me ?
[18:05] <Xase> ikonia, that was a quick no.
[18:05] <ikonia> zayr: with what ?
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: correct
[18:05] <Xase> Why?
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  ive heard its not too kard to make a win7 iso onto a flash drive.  check in #windows perhaps
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: because no it can't do it
[18:05] <zayr> ikonia: I want install / use alsa over the pulseaudio
[18:05] <Memnochxx> Xase: can your computer not boot from usb?
[18:05] <Xase> Dr_Willis, that would be so easy, if my only thumb drive was not a gig.
[18:05] <Xase> ;)
[18:05] <akaedintov> rww , then 10.04 it is. I have difficulties in 10.10
[18:05] <Memnochxx> Buy a bigger one for $5?
[18:06] <Luca> Hello. Anyone know why most games are really low fps on ubuntu? (or atleast in my case) They run fine on Windows
[18:06] <Kartagis> !irc
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> seen 4gb on salwe for $6 this weekend
[18:06] <akaedintov> rww , nvidia drivers are not working , bandwith sucks
[18:06] <ikonia> Luca: because your using wine
[18:06] <Xase> Memnochxx, It can, but my External does not like running bootable medias.
[18:06] <qwertyjustin> hello
[18:06] <qwertyjustin> what is the ubuntu 10.10 default dvd authoring program?
[18:06] <Xase> I cannot. I am broke for the next couple months or so with Christmas and my daughter.
[18:06] <Luca> Can wine be tweaked for higher fps or is there nothing I can do?
[18:06] <zteam> Luca: Windows games or native linux games?
[18:06] <ikonia> Xase: sit it out then, until you have the money
[18:06] <Memnochxx> Skip mcdonalds one day
[18:06] <Xase> I can't spend 5 dollars on a flash drive when my daughter needs diapers ;)
[18:06] <Luca> Windows steam games
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  ive heard that you can some how copy the iso file contents to hard drive also and have it boot. but never done it.
[18:07] <haffe> Sounds like sound economic policy.
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  it will totally depend on the game.
[18:07] <zteam> Luca: Wine, works good for some games
[18:07] <zayr> ikonia: i didnt have problem with alsa but with pulseadio my sound car isnt working good
[18:07] <Luca> Nah tested a few all low fps
[18:07] <ikonia> Dr_Willis: booting iso's is possible with grub, but not practical
[18:07] <Xase> Hmm ikonia I will just try myself then... I usually end up having to do so, as I -NEVER- manage to get help here really.
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  it still DEPENDS on the game..
[18:07] <zteam> Luca: but not all, I can recommend you to try with playonlinux
[18:07] <Luca> can someone recommend a game that should run smooth? natively?
[18:07] <Xase> Dr_Willis, So have I, which is why I came seeking the pros help.
[18:07] <ikonia> Xase: you've been helped, and told it's not really possible
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> ikonia:  i boot ubuntu iso's all the time. :) works good.. Never had a win7 iso to test.
[18:07] <Luca> I am using playonlinux
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  thats still using wine.
[18:08] <zayr> Luca: most of / all opengl games works fine
[18:08] <Xase> Dr_Willis, I've also booted a ubuntu ISO of a partition, never a windows one though.
[18:08] <ikonia> Xase: I can see your also asking in #grub, so I'm sure they can help you
[18:08] <Garandir> Does freenode have a memo serv?
[18:08] <cybastl> sry for asking again i found the form entry to conf my mx510 mouse but there is not input device entry in my xorg.conf ?
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  Plants Vs Zombies works good here for me..  as do many other popcap games.
[18:08] <ikonia> Garandir: it does, ask the guys in #freenode
[18:08] <Xase> Yes ikonia thank you.
[18:08] <Luca> no even the old counter strike cs 1.6 lags
[18:08] <Garandir> Thanks ikonia
[18:08] <zteam> Luca: Well, then it's not much you can do
[18:08] <zayr> Luca: turn off compiz stuff
[18:08] <Luca> ah, yeh, i suspected that I will try that
[18:09] <zteam> Luca: you can try out cedega, or look on winehq and see if there are any tweaks for that game
[18:09] <zayr> so none can help me with alsa ?
[18:09] <zayr> and there is no guide in wiki
[18:10] <zteam> zayr: whats wrong with it?
[18:10] <zayr> zteam: i want use alsa over the pulseaudio
[18:11] <qwertyjustin> what is the default ubuntu dvd authoring program?
[18:11] <zteam> zayr: okey, why?
[18:11] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  for making Data dvd? brasero i think. but theres better ones in the package manager.
[18:11] <zayr> zteam: doesnt matter why :P...but my sound car isnt working properly with pulseaudio
[18:11] <Garandir> How do I msg freenode server on Empathy?
[18:11] <qwertyjustin> Dr_Willis: what about for iso burning?
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  several apps can do that also.
[18:12] <qwertyjustin> whats official for ubuntu ?
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  default i thinkis brasero also for that. I tend to use k3b for my needs
[18:12] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I've added .xinitrc to my home dir and it starts xfce4 like this: exec ck-launch-session startxfce4 However "System policy prevents modification of system settings" still comes up :/
[18:12] <awnek> So, I was able to choose a installation language and choose a japan keyboard layout. I got an error(usally it freezes). I was able to ingore the erorr and continue with the install..
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> !burn
[18:12] <qwertyjustin> ok cheers
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  gnomebaker is much better then brasero i find.
[18:12] <Xase> Dr_Willis if you're interested I'll be glad to let you know my results in the matter.
[18:12] <zteam> zayr: I think you can just uninstall the pulseaudio package in synaptic, and it should configure alsa as default
[18:13] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  i dont have any win7 iso's only 'recovery' disk sets for my one win7 box.
[18:13] <Garandir> How do I message the server on Empathy?
[18:13] <Xase> Ah :D
[18:13] <Xase> Ok
[18:13] <zayr> zteam: i installed alsa-source also :S
[18:13] <demlasjr|2> hello guys....I need your help :((
[18:13] <zayr> but there is no alsamixer
