[19:31] <nit-wit> there is a bug in 10.10mkaing it read as 11.04 in some parts of the system
[19:31] <rigved> Coolslai: C:\menu.lst
[19:31] <grizzlyattack> ah. okay then I should be good I hope.
[19:31] <Tukano> Sandifordd: oh here we go: 60 giga disk, 104mb ntfs is windows 7 boot, 40giga ntfs is windows 7, and rest of it, 16gb is for ubuntu ... now question about partition ... shoud I select primary or logical?
[19:31] <KM0201> kakashi__: ask your question, if someone can help.. they will
[19:31] <grizzlyattack> then my only problem is with mp3's not burning.
[19:31] <Coolslai> ok
[19:31] <grizzlyattack> where can I get help for that
[19:31] <rigved> Coolslai: it should look like this - http://paste.ubuntu.com/547009/
[19:32] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, what is the desktop again Ubuntu, Kubuntu, the man on mars
[19:32] <grizzlyattack> Ubuntu.
[19:32] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, have you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:32] <grizzlyattack> lol I have no idea
[19:33] <kholby> This may not be the right place for this, but I have a Gateway PC running 9.10.  I install an Nvidia graphics card to use with a second display, but now the onboard graphics card isn't working.
[19:33] <Guest16522> I'm installing ubuntu on a new computer and resizing a 70GB partition to 60GB. How long should I expect this to take?
[19:33] <Giles> grub-mkconfig is detecting my acer recovery partition and the windows vista partition the wrong way round.
[19:33] <grizzlyattack> I'm sure I haven't though
[19:33] <nit-wit> in the terminal run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[19:33] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, last message for you
[19:34] <Giles> how can I make grub mkconfig have /dev/sda1 as the recovery partition, and /dev/sda2 as windows vista?
[19:34] <KM0201> jcp2: ah.. it depends on how much data neesd to be moved... 10gigs is pretty close to bare minimum though
[19:34] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, meant for you
[19:34] <rigved> jcp2: not too long. a few minutes
[19:34] <Giles> (This was all alot easier when there was a menu.lst)
[19:34] <kholby> Giles:   I agree.
[19:34] <Coolslai> ok rigved, what else?
[19:34] <KM0201> Giles: amen brother
[19:34] <grizzlyattack> Okay, I got that going
[19:34]  * KM0201 misses menu.lst
[19:35] <jcp2> rigved, KM0201: Ok. It's been over 1/2 hour thus far, and the installer is still showing 0%. The hard disk light has been solid on, though, so it's doing something. Should I get worried it's stuck?
[19:35]  * Coolslai wants the abillity to not have to go to technical support for help :(
[19:35] <kholby> Remember when we were able to put different boot options in whatever order we wanted?
[19:35] <Giles> anyway, there seems to be nothing in 20_os_prober
[19:35] <KM0201> jcp2: half hour, and its stuck on 0%?
[19:35] <Giles> or whatever it is.
[19:35] <Felix00> Giles, look at /etc/grub/
[19:35]  * Coolslai wants to not HAVE to go for help at all
[19:35] <KM0201> jcp2: when you look at the 'details'... does it look like its moving
[19:35] <Giles> Felix00: its /etc/grub.d/
[19:35] <KM0201> Coolslai: where are you planning to go for tech support/
[19:35] <Felix00> Giles, there are files which make grub.cfg
[19:35] <nit-wit> KM0201, nothing like hand making the stanzas I miss being beat by my parents
[19:36] <Coolslai> km0201 lol here
[19:36] <KM0201> nit-wit: lmao..
[19:36] <Giles> Felix00: how do they work.
[19:36] <kholby> Anyone have any ideas on getting the onboard graphics card working again?  Quit working when I installed a PCIe Nvidia card.
[19:36] <grizzlyattack> nit-wit will that give me what I need "out of box"?
[19:36] <Felix00> Giles, just edit the other_os and linux (they are simmilar to menu.lst but with variables.)
[19:36] <KM0201> Coolslai: eh, i like i there... i think your problem is yout ried an install of ubuntu, while having a wubi install... another fine mess wubi has caused (iirc, that was the problem anyway)
[19:36] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, you need it know matter what but I have never had a problem with burning a mp3
[19:36] <[lan3y]> Whats the best way to downgrade a package?
[19:37] <Felix00> Giles, in the line that sets partition, change properly
[19:37] <Coolslai> fuck shpould i just wipe my hard drives and start over?
[19:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: personally if it were me, i'd hav done reinstalled everything from CD(windows and Linux)..
[19:37] <ElNota> [lan3y]: Forcing version in freenode and reinstalling it
[19:37] <jcp2> KM0201: It just now told me the operation has been aborted
[19:37] <Felix00> Giles, look for hd(x,y)
[19:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: i'd have done that hours ago.
[19:37] <Sandifordd> Tukano: sorry took so long what was the question??
[19:37] <dorgan> anyone know how to allow exim to use piping for system_aliases apparently the ubuntu package comes with it disabled?
[19:37] <jcp2> and now it's showing that the hard disk has 0MB used
[19:37] <jcp2> So is my data gone?
[19:37] <Coolslai> wanna help?
[19:37] <IdleOne> Coolslai: Please stop swearing.
[19:37] <grizzlyattack> I tried burning with a fresh install of Ubuntu but it kept removing my files from Brasero. And then when I tried k3b, it kept giving me errors.
[19:37] <jcp2> or is there any way to get it back?
[19:37] <ElNota> [lan3y]: sorry, synaptic
[19:37] <KM0201> jcp2: i sure hope not..
[19:37] <Coolslai> sorry idle one
[19:37] <Giles> Felix00: there is no other_os
[19:37] <rigved> Coolslai: checking if a solution is available
[19:37] <Coolslai> sorry idleone
[19:37] <Nubulis> Hello,
[19:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: help w/ what?
[19:37] <Coolslai> rigved ty
[19:37] <Tukano> Sandifordd: well, i'm installing again, and i selected whole disk, to put boot loader in, thats ok?
[19:37] <Felix00> Giles, 30_otheros
[19:38] <Coolslai> wiping my hard drive lol
[19:38] <Giles> Felix00: hold on let me just check again, rebooted that machine.
[19:38] <Nubulis> Can anyone help me with some gui problems I'm having?
[19:38] <Felix00> sure Giles
[19:38] <Nubulis> sorry,,, Please?
[19:38] <KM0201> Coolslai: the thing is.. if you have the disks to restore Windows.. you'd reinstall windos in about 20-30min.. update, etc.. crap in another 30.. partition drive, another 30, install ubuntu, 10-15min...  now, how long have you been trying to solve this mess?
[19:38] <nit-wit> grizzlyattack, you should try the #ubuntu-beginners channel as well lots of good help this is a noob problem to be honest
[19:38] <Coolslai> hours
[19:39] <shcherbak> Tukano: best to have separate /home /swap and maybe /var and /tmp partitions, but one is ok too
[19:39] <Tukano> shcherbak: I'll try that
[19:39] <KM0201> Coolslai: if its any consolation.. i went, drove 3mi, dropped off my recycle stuff, went, stood in line for 20min to get a thumb drive, came home downloaded 10.10, put on thumb drive, booted, and installed, updated, and installed/configured all my programs, on my laptop.. in the time you've been dealing w/ this
[19:39] <KM0201> lol
[19:40] <shcherbak> Tukano: so boot flag goes to / and rest can be logical...
[19:40] <Coolslai> yay! i hate this
[19:40] <Coolslai> lol
[19:40] <KM0201> lol
[19:40] <KM0201> Coolslai: do you have a windows cd?
[19:40] <Coolslai> yeah
[19:40] <Coolslai> not with me though
[19:40] <KM0201> for cryin out loud dude, boot a live CD, and an external drive, back up anything important, and nuke that thing.
[19:41] <Coolslai> rigved km0201 brb quesry me what your solution is rigved and km0201 tell me what ur gunna suggest
[19:41] <shcherbak> Tukano: if you really want you can create /boot, but / (whith will include /boot) is good for normal use.
[19:41] <KM0201> Coolslai: and let it be a lesson, next time someone in here says how awesome wubi is... tell them your story
[19:41] <Coolslai> brb
[19:41] <nmvictor> I cannot adjust my screen brightness in ubuntu 10.10, does anyone know how to fix this?
[19:41] <KM0201> Coolslai: i already told you... start both OS's from scratch.. it'd take max 2hrs.
[19:41] <Giles> Felix00: okay, all I have is 30_os-prober
[19:41] <KM0201> and you've been working on this at least 4-5
[19:41] <Tukano> shcherbak: if i did it wrong again this time, i'm just gonna repair with windows cd, and try again :)
[19:42] <shcherbak> Tukano: ok, one second...
[19:43] <dorgan> anyone?
[19:43] <Giles> Felix00: I can't make head nor tail of it.
[19:43] <m4xx> anyone use qtnx?
[19:44] <phzin> Ich wünsche Ihnen ein schönes Weihnachtsfest und einen erfolgreichen Start ins neue Jahr! ;)
[19:44] <Giles> Felix00: ??
[19:45] <KM0201> !de | phzin
[19:45] <Felix00> Giles, are you root?
[19:45] <blackxored> is there a way to tell banshee to download all covers whether i'm playing the album or not? some bulk downloading of album art?
[19:45] <phzin> KM0201, Danke.
[19:46] <Giles> Felix00: I am using sudo
[19:46] <N4ck0> can i join on this discus
[19:46] <Felix00> Giles, ospreobe i think its the os probe that ubuntu made during install
[19:46] <shcherbak> Tukano: all (exept swap = ext4), sizes (more-less) / - around 5gb; /usr - 10-15 gb (min 5); swar 1-2gb (if any); /home -rest; /var - 5gb (if any), /tmp - 5gb (if any). if you do /var /tmp /usr than / partition can be scalled down
[19:46] <phzin> KM0201, I said "merry christmas and happy new year" sorry.
[19:46] <KM0201> phzin: sorry, my german is rusty... :)...lol
[19:46] <Felix00> Giles, 'sudo nano ...'
[19:47] <Giles> Felix00: osprobe?
[19:47] <Felix00> dont tail or head
[19:47] <Tukano> Schumann: I still got windows partition up and running for now
[19:47] <blackxored> Hello, is there a way to tell banshee to download all cover even if i'm not playing the album? Some sort of bulk album art download?
[19:47] <rigved> Coolslai: boot into XP again (this is the last ditch effort)
[19:47] <phzin> KM0201,  no problem. my english is rusty too!
[19:47] <blackxored> ups sorrt
[19:47] <KM0201> N4ck0: of course.. it's an open discussion here, so long as it stays on topic
[19:47] <blackxored> sorry
[19:47] <Giles> Felix00: sudo nano /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
[19:47] <KM0201> phzin: :)
[19:47] <blackxored> is there?
[19:47] <phzin> :D
[19:47] <N4ck0> what topic now
[19:47] <KM0201> N4ck0: no real topic, just when people need help, offer help if you can.
[19:48] <N4ck0> yes
[19:48] <Felix00> yes Giles , whats wrong? does it works?
[19:48] <KM0201> N4ck0: right now, i'd say the majority of the channel is laughing at Coolslai situation..lol
[19:48] <Giles> is finding /dev/sda1 as windows vista, and /dev/sda2 as recovery partition.
[19:48] <Giles> Felix00: I just want to change the menu labels
[19:49] <Coolslai> rigved im back
[19:49] <shcherbak> Tukano: so, it will stay in front of linux on hard drive. only important think is to make / phisical partition and make bootable.
[19:49] <Giles> Felix00: it should be /dev/sda2 windows vista, and /dev/sda1 recovery
[19:49] <Coolslai> rigved what do u want me to do?
[19:49] <rigved> Coolslai: boot into ZP
[19:49] <Coolslai> i am
[19:49] <KM0201> Giles: you mean the volume label?... how it shows up int he places menu?
[19:49] <rigved> Coolslai: boot into XP
[19:49] <rigved> Coolslai: oj
[19:49] <rigved> ok
[19:49] <Tukano> shcherbak: will try that after this install, in case i did it wrong again :)
[19:49] <Giles> KM0201: no the grub menu
[19:49] <rigved> Coolslai: make a new folder C:\ubuntu
[19:49] <KM0201> Giles: oh ok.. i don't mess w/ Grub2.. grub.conf scares me...
[19:49] <Coolslai> rigved okay
[19:50] <rigved> Coolslai: thats a ubuntu folder in C:\
[19:50] <Giles> KM0201: where is grub.conf then?
[19:50] <Maahes> Wait, did Coolslai hose his system with the wubi installer? Like, tried to do a real install with wubi or the install that makes ubuntu an application within windows?
[19:50] <Felix00> Giles, if you only got 30_os-prober in /etc/grub.d/ youre missing 6 or 7 config files
[19:50] <KM0201> Giles: i think editing entries the way you want to, is a bit more involved.. its not like in the days of menu.lst wherre you could pretty much do anything... sadly
[19:50] <Coolslai> i love how everybody is like trying to figue out why my computer hates me
[19:50] <rigved> Giles: you should not edit grub.conf directly
[19:50] <Sandifordd> shcherbak: you still here?
[19:50] <Felix00> Giles, each file lets you change the way grub.cfg is generated
[19:50] <Giles> Felix00: no, thats not the only file, just the closest match to what you told me to look for.
[19:50] <shcherbak> hm, yes?
[19:51] <KM0201> Coolslai: i just can't believe your'e still working on it.. .amazed actually.
[19:51] <Giles> i have 00_header
[19:51] <Giles> 05_debian_theme
[19:51] <Justus> hi, I just recently installed ubuntu with lamp, now my apache is set up wrong and I don't see any errors, any idea how to turn them on again? I really need to see php errors...
[19:51] <Giles> 10_linux
[19:51] <Sandifordd> you said to tukano something about /swap and such
[19:51] <Felix00> in example 10_linux lets you change the menu entry and linux command in that entry
[19:51] <Giles> 20_linux_xen
[19:51] <Sandifordd> is it bad if you dont have it?
[19:51] <Coolslai> km0201 lol whys that?
[19:51] <rigved> KM0201: and i'm tired. this is my last try :)
[19:51] <Giles> Felix00: oh...
[19:51] <Coolslai> km0201 although its been 10+ hours
[19:51] <KM0201> Coolslai: cuz like i said, i'd have done nuked both OS's and fixed it...
[19:51] <rigved> Coolslai: have you made the C:\ubuntu folder?
[19:52] <Coolslai> rigved yes
[19:52] <Maahes> Yeah, the one thing I dislike about ubuntu is: no longer know how to reinit a system that's crashed and recovered after Magic Keys: Raising Elephants, no longer know how to make modifications X resources, or how to screw around with Grub. Because all of that has changed in the last few releases.
[19:52] <Felix00> Giles, ok, so lookup for XX_windows or something. Use "grep -re "windows" ."
[19:52] <KM0201> Coolslai: thats ridiculous.. you could have reinstalled and updated/reinstalled all yoru software, on both OS's.. in about 2-3hrs tops
[19:52] <rigved> Coolslai: copy the files under C:\hd-media to C:\ubuntu
[19:52] <shcherbak> Sandifordd: swap? no, it is not needed if you have enought ram (apart of some tasks).
[19:52] <KM0201> Coolslai: i knew you'd been here a while but not that long
[19:52] <Coolslai> rigved do i keep hp-media folder too?
[19:52] <Felix00> Giles, use that command line inside /etc/grub.d/
[19:52] <Giles> Felix00: I don't have XX_windows or something.
[19:52] <Coolslai> km0201 lol well now u kno
[19:52] <rigved> Coolslai: os, now in C:\ubuntu, you have only two files. no folders
[19:53] <rigved> Coolslai: *so ^^
[19:53] <Sandifordd> shcherbak: okay now could it cause ubuntu to say...lock-up? if i didnt have it
[19:53] <Coolslai> rigved do i keep hp-media folder too?
[19:53] <joan> itzed.org
[19:53] <KM0201> Coolslai: in that case, that list of stuff i said i done while you were working on this... you can add "slept 8hrs" also...lol
[19:53] <rigved> Coolslai: after copying, delete that folder
[19:53] <Coolslai> ok
[19:53] <Coolslai> rigved done
[19:53] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> http://www.sabily.org is an Ubuntu Distro for Muslims
[19:54] <rigved> Coolslai: now copy the .iso ubuntu alternate cd file to C:\ubuntu
[19:54] <Felix00> Giles, ok, so lookup for XX_windows or something. Use "grep -re "Windows" ."
[19:54] <Giles> Felix00: I have: 00_header 05_debian_theme 10_linux 20_linux_xen 20_memtest86+ 30_os-prober 40_custom 41_custom
[19:54] <juniour> hi
[19:54] <Coolslai> rigved, do i copy or cut
[19:54] <Coolslai> rigved the file
[19:54] <rigved> Coolslai: copy
[19:54] <Justus> nobody here who knows about this error showing problem with apache2 and php under ubuntu? I really can't find ANYTHING at all on that, I've tried every setting, in the php.ini, the httpd.conf
[19:54] <juniour> hey can any one tell me to set timmer for shut doun via terminal
[19:55] <Felix00> Giles,  Use "grep -re "Windows" ."
[19:55] <Coolslai> rigved done
[19:55] <crankharder> I've got a faulty  disk in my mdadm array -- before I replace it I want to "format" it and ty adding it back in.  should I just dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda it?
[19:55] <rigved> Coolslai: after you have copied successfully, then you can delete the .iso file under C:\
[19:55] <Coolslai> ok
[19:55] <shcherbak> Sandifordd: never happend to me (well in most cases have swap), yes lack of available memory can crush system, i guess it can be avoided.
[19:55] <rigved> Coolslai: so in C:\ubuntu, you have 3 files
[19:55] <Neorg> drupal
[19:55] <Coolslai> rigved - done
[19:55] <Neorg> #join Drupal
[19:56] <Felix00> Giles, my output: http://pastebin.com/xtAtXPqY
[19:56] <shcherbak> Sandifordd: how much ram do you have?
[19:56] <rigved> Coolslai: and you have deleted C:\hd-media and the .iso file under C:\
[19:56] <Coolslai> km0201 i wonder how many people have the same problem i have
[19:56] <juniour> help me
[19:56] <juniour> ?
[19:56] <Coolslai> rigved - yes

[19:56] <Neorg> #drupal
[19:56] <boondoklife> Any one here familiar with getting a Broadcom BCM4321 working correctly?
[19:57] <juniour> how to set timmer for shutdown via terminal
[19:57] <boondoklife> Can not get it to work at 802.11n speed
[19:57] <KM0201> juniour: sudo shutdown -h xxx   xxx is time in seconds
[19:57] <Giles> Felix00: I think I need to look more thourghly through 30_os-prober
[19:57] <Coolslai> km0201 why wubi?
[19:57] <KM0201> cuz its a trainwreck
[19:57] <Giles> Felix00: I don't have 30_otheros
[19:57] <StupidX> boondoklife, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[19:57] <juniour> kmo201 k
[19:57] <Coolslai> km0201 how so?
[19:58] <Felix00> Giles, did you do the grep thing?
[19:58] <rigved> Coolslai: one moment
[19:58] <KM0201> Coolslai: u have have to ask?.. how long you been dealing w/ this
[19:58] <Felix00> Giles, perhaps it may be on 40_ or 41_
[19:58] <Felix00> (im on debian)
[19:58] <Sandifordd> MAYBE you blindly just solved my problem lol! k if i have ubuntu already installed can i still make a swap?
[19:58] <Coolslai> rigved ok
[19:58] <rigved> KM0201: Coolslai cannot boot from CD
[19:58] <KM0201> time to boot a USB
[19:59] <Coolslai> km0201 lol
[19:59] <boondoklife> StupidX, thanks will give it a go
[19:59] <KM0201> rigved: why can he not boot a CD?
[19:59] <Giles> Felix00: no 40 and 41 are almost empty
[19:59] <KM0201> i'm sure i probably missed that part of the discussion while iw as sleeping my 8hrs
[20:00] <rigved> KM0201: his computer is cannot maybe because it's 8 years old
[20:00] <rigved> Coolslai: ok. reboot
[20:00] <Coolslai> rigved ok
[20:00] <KM0201> hmm... wonder if it can boot a network device
[20:00] <alaing> Hi I need some help with a dlink DWA-140 and ubuntu 10.04
[20:00] <KM0201> alaing: is that internal or usb?
[20:00] <alaing> usb
[20:01] <rigved> Coolslai: either this works or one more slight variation. but then i do not know what to do
[20:01] <Giles> Felix00: I don't really understand how to fix, the os-prober script, I just want to edit the generated output, where ever that goes?!
[20:01] <Coolslai> ok rigved
[20:01] <alaing> it sees my wifi network
[20:01] <Giles> Felix00: this generates a grub.conf?
[20:01] <alaing> but will nto connect
[20:01] <Giles> Felix00: where does that file belong?
[20:01] <KM0201> alaing: yeah, i think its a ralink chipset, hang on
[20:01] <Coolslai> rigved , error 154
[20:01] <Coolslai> rigved , error 15

[20:03] <juniour> can i give timmer for any programm
[20:03] <Coolslai> no it was the same error
[20:03] <Coolslai> except it was 1,0 instead of 0,0
[20:03] <KM0201> alaing: do you ahve anything under system/admin/hardware drivers
[20:03] <alaing> does dlink have their own irc channel?
[20:03] <rigved> Coolslai: :( ohh you meant you had already started booting into XP
[20:04] <rigved> Coolslai: ok
[20:04] <Coolslai> yeah
[20:04] <KM0201> alaing: even if they did, its unlikely they support linux
[20:04] <alaing> KM0201: let me check
[20:04] <Coolslai> sorry rigved
[20:04] <ubnoob> Hello everyone, I love ubuntu 10.10 but i can't mount to my ipod- any suggestions
[20:04] <rigved> Coolslai: np
[20:04] <Felix00> Giles, each file in /etc/grub.d/ is a script used by update-grub2(deprecated) and grub-mkconfig. Each one loads in order of his numbers, so you can add a 25_windows that will be load after 20 and 30 ... And yes, those scripts serve to build grub.cfg. DO NOT EDIT /boot/grub/grub.cfg , because next time you update kernel, or run update-grub youll miss it
[20:04] <Coolslai> whats your last resort? lol wipe everything sclean? rigved
[20:04] <Felix00> Giles, for further info read man grub2
[20:04] <KM0201> :)
[20:05] <rigved> Coolslai: this time, after booting into XP, insert the alternate cd again
[20:05] <Coolslai> rigved ddone
[20:05] <alaing> KM0201: I dont see hardware drivers. I'm using server edition with gnome desktop installed
[20:05] <Giles> Felix00: Is this stupidly over complicated, what was wrong with menu.lst, and grub-update
[20:06] <KM0201> alaing: system/admin/additional drivers maybe?... the name has changed for that tool several tiems
[20:06] <juniour> can i set timmer to start application
[20:06] <jrib> juniour: yes, use "at"
[20:06] <Giles> Felix00: it trys to fail proof detect my windows partitions, and it dosen't work right.
[20:06] <juniour> like music
[20:06] <rigved> Coolslai: copy that to C:\
[20:06] <Felix00> Giles, menu.lst belongs to grub 1 times
[20:06] <rigved> Coolslai: replace the older menu.lst file
[20:06] <Guest88397> HAY
[20:06] <Coolslai> rigved i got this error when clicking on the link
[20:06] <Coolslai> Could not locate content blob for object 9ba8e268-dfe6-4e8e-b653-1562cb53a005
[20:07] <juniour> jrib how i set timmer for music or many application
[20:07] <alaing> KM0201: nope nothing that seems to suggest drivers
[20:07] <lukaszdypa> skurwysyny
[20:07] <jrib> juniour: use the "at" command
[20:07] <Giles> Felix00: it was easy to do this sort of "fix" though...
[20:07] <shcherbak> juniour: sleep 3600 && mocp -p
[20:07] <rigved> Coolslai: try again
[20:07] <KM0201> alaing: and you looke din system/admin?   are you sure you're using ubuntu 10.04?

[20:11] <Datz> debugg3r: what are you reading
[20:11] <debugg3r> dude
[20:11] <Felix00> problem is just your /etc/grub.d scripts
[20:11] <debugg3r> thats not
[20:11] <KM0201> alaing: i have a belkin USB wireless device, that i think is the same chipset as that device, and it works out of the box(even on the liev cd).. i dunno.
[20:11] <debugg3r> the system works

[20:12] <Datz> debugg3r: that's it, thanks
[20:12] <jrib> juniour: shcherbak's way will work too.  If you want to use at, you might need to set DISPLAY appropriately for gui apps by the way
[20:12] <KM0201> alaing: i see
[20:12] <debugg3r> search the ubuntu 10.10 repo
[20:12] <debugg3r> lol
[20:12] <debugg3r> type beef
[20:12] <Giles> Felix00: no, os-prober is printing out the wrong data
[20:13] <jrib> debugg3r: stop spamming ubottu commands please
[20:13] <Giles> I will pastebin it.
[20:13] <juniour> k jrib
[20:13] <debugg3r> ok ok
[20:13] <Datz> debugg3r: would *_custom most likely be the other OS?
[20:13] <alaing> KM0201: i know about sudo want command can i run to bring out what you wanting
[20:13] <debugg3r> nope
[20:13] <Felix00> sorry Giles gtg
[20:13] <Guest88397> Are you my brothers or not?
[20:13] <debugg3r> its based on lxde
[20:13] <KM0201> alaing: i didn't ask you to run a command...
[20:13] <debugg3r> xmas themes
[20:13] <debugg3r> some good apps
[20:13] <Datz> !nicks | debugg3r
[20:13] <alaing> KM0201: you said sudo lol
[20:13] <Datz> !address | debugg3r
[20:14] <debugg3r> nicks what.
[20:14] <Datz> lol
[20:14] <KM0201> alaing: because you were takling about being logged in as a "user".
[20:14] <Datz> I have no idea who you are speaking to debugg3r
[20:14] <Tanner|AC> How do i remove an old kernel?
[20:14] <debugg3r> !gtfo | Datz
[20:14] <debugg3r> :D
[20:14] <KM0201> Tanner|AC: search it in synaptic, remove it, then run sudo update-grub
[20:14] <Datz> that must be it..
[20:14] <KM0201> thats how i do itl.
[20:14] <jrib> Tanner|AC: use synaptic or apt to remove the appropriate linux-image-* package
[20:14] <debugg3r> Tanner|AC: you delete iot from the /boot/ folder
[20:14] <jrib> Tanner|AC: you should not delete anything
[20:14] <KM0201> debugg3r: seriously, stop..
[20:15] <debugg3r> well instead learning people the gui thing
[20:15] <Datz> debugg3r: would *_custom most likely be the other OS, or what would it be?
[20:15] <KM0201> debugg3r: some people here don't know any better and may follow your advice
[20:15] <debugg3r> its better
[20:15] <jrib> debugg3r: it's not better, it's wrong
[20:15] <debugg3r> prove it
[20:15] <Tanner|AC> debugg3r: I can tell that you're trying to ruin my system, that's really not funny at all.
[20:15] <alaing> KM0201: perhaps I'm missing the package
[20:15] <juniour> can i put minute in place of sec
[20:15] <debugg3r> no dude
[20:15] <debugg3r> i said delete the old kernel
[20:15] <Tukano> some other sort of question, if anyone knows that is, in windows i use aptana studio for python development, what idle to use for it on ubuntu?
[20:15] <KM0201> alaing: what package?
[20:15] <debugg3r> after installing the new one
[20:15] <jrib> debugg3r: if you delete apt-managed files yourself you'll leave apt thinking something is installed when it isn't.  You should always use APT to manage APT-installed software
[20:15] <debugg3r> then select from grub
[20:16] <FloodBot2> debugg3r: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:16] <debugg3r> simple as f***
[20:16] <alaing> to see hardward drivers
[20:16] <alaing> KM0201: can i not check something from commandline?
[20:16] <KM0201> alaing: or its not installed w/ server edition.... i don't really know much about it.
[20:16] <alaing> to tell you what chipset it is
[20:16] <debugg3r> No wonder why people say that Ubuntu spirit is not followed by the IRC channel
[20:16] <wrektjet> what would happen if i switched my motherboard and processor and plugged everything back in. how would the OS react?
[20:16] <debugg3r> this is pure fascism
[20:16] <KM0201> alaing: why did yo install server edition and then put gnome on it?... why not install desktop, and install the server apps you want?
[20:17] <jrib> alaing, KM0201: there's jockey-text and jockey-gtk (the Additional Drivers app)
[20:17] <jrib> debugg3r: let's stay on the topic of ubuntu support
[20:17] <KM0201> yeah, it must not be installed on Server..
[20:17] <debugg3r> another fascist example
[20:17] <debugg3r> of the code of conduct
[20:17] <alaing> jrib thanks. KM0201 let me install those and see if it helps
[20:17] <KM0201> alaing: you can try installing jockey-gtk...
[20:18] <guntbert> debugg3r: what is your problem?
[20:18] <jrib> alaing: note I have no clue what the context is about your situation.  Was just mentioning those two apps
[20:18] <Tanner|AC> So I can remove "linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic" if i have "linux-image-2.6.35-23-generic" ?
[20:18] <jrib> Tanner|AC: yep
[20:18] <Tanner|AC> ok
[20:18] <debugg3r> guntbert why are you being a discussion invader?
[20:18] <Felix00> someone doesnt likes to be corrected
[20:18] <KM0201> Tanner|AC: yes... then after you remove it, close syanptic and run "sudo update-grub"
[20:18] <rigved> KM0201: bye. maybe you can tell Coolslaihow to do net install. i do not understand how to set the dhcp server in XP
[20:18] <Felix00> thats all
[20:18] <debugg3r> rigved
[20:18] <KM0201> rigved: lol.. i'll see if i can help him
[20:18] <guntbert> debugg3r: I beg your pardon?
[20:18] <debugg3r> just enable your goddamn network device
[20:19] <rigved> debugg3r: yes?
[20:19] <debugg3r> it automatically looks for a dhcp server
[20:19] <debugg3r> on windows
[20:19] <KM0201> Coolslai: so what exactly can your PC do... i've kinda lost track of your situation.. can it boot anything?
[20:19] <rigved> debugg3r: ok. that's good. does it work with the net install of ubuntu?
[20:19] <Haqqkcb> I finally found an active room with my android mirc app
[20:19] <debugg3r> yes
[20:19] <debugg3r> if its dhcp
[20:19] <debugg3r> yes
[20:20] <rigved> Coolslai: > debugg3r
[20:20] <rigved> debugg3r: thanx. bye
[20:20] <debugg3r> no problem.
[20:20] <debugg3r> just being a good ass citien :)

[20:20] <debugg3r> white citizen*

[20:21] <KM0201> arooni: any pop3 will work, but there is no "best"
[20:21] <jrib> arooni: gmail has imap too
[20:21] <Myrtti> KM0201: surely imap would be better for gmail
[20:21] <Giles> lol
[20:21] <Tanner|AC> Thanks jribas
[20:21] <Haqqkcb> Anyone these on android mirc app
[20:21] <Tanner|AC> *jrib

[20:23] <Haqqkcb> Cool having mirc on my cell phone
[20:23] <BluesKaj> OOPS too far from the pc
[20:23] <Dcite> BluesKaj: Data is expensive sometimes.. if you want convience..
[20:23] <arooni> KM0201,  jrib i'm talking about thunderbird or something else
[20:23] <Dcite> BluesKaj: Too far? which type of input are you using?
[20:23] <BluesKaj> wireless
[20:23] <jrib> arooni: sure that will work
[20:23] <KM0201> arooni: ok, then try thunderbird or something else..
[20:24] <BluesKaj> usb wireless Dcite
[20:24] <filo1234> arooni: you don'nt like evolution?
[20:24] <arooni> is there anyting bettert than thunderbird?
[20:24] <Ray2> arooni, I use thunderbird and gmail on all my distros
[20:24] <KM0201> !best | arooni
[20:24] <BluesKaj> Dcite, I'm in my tv room easychair with wifi receiver about 8ft away
[20:24] <gucko> hello people
[20:24] <arooni> i know no best;   just like mostly highly recommneded
[20:25] <StrangeCharm> i'm getting "sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory" when i try to run an init.d script. what might be causing this?
[20:25] <guntbert> gucko:  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[20:25] <Datz> jrib: I'm trying to change grub boot order by modifing number values of files in /etc/drub.d/ so far it hasn't changed anything. Will this work?
[20:25] <filo1234> arooni: evolution make her work fine IMHO
[20:25] <KM0201> arooni: its the same thing, you're polling, ask bestbots, or just install a few and try them.
[20:25] <Guest88397> SO WHAT? BROTHERS!
[20:25] <arooni> http://pastie.org/1401458  how can i fix this thunderbird install
[20:26] <alaing> jrib i cant install jockey-text etc as i dont have a net connection is there a way i can download it from my machine that has a net connection
[20:26] <Dr_Willis_> !find jockey-text
[20:26] <Dr_Willis_> I thought jockey-text was allready installed
[20:26] <gucko> I tried to open a subtitle file written in Arabic. Its encoding is weired. It seems it was saved in Windows using ASCI endcoding or something. I used to fix this issue by opening the file in WinXP using notepad then saving it again in UTF. That works. But now I don't have WinXP and I want to solve the problem in Ubuntu. How to do that please?
[20:26] <BluesKaj> Datz, don't forget to do sudo update-grub after the changes
[20:26] <KM0201> Dr_Willis_: she installed server edition, and gnome on top of it.. id on't think she has jockey installed, because she doesn't have system/admin/additional drivers
[20:27] <jrib> alaing: /msg ubottu offline   will give you several options (including using http://packages.ubuntu.com).  But why do you want jockey?
[20:27] <Datz> BluesKaj: thanks, that must be the issue
[20:27] <gucko> guntbert: I asked my question :D
[20:27] <jrib> StrangeCharm: the directory you are in has been deleted?
[20:27] <KM0201> Coolslai: u still around?
[20:27] <guntbert> gucko: I saw but have no answer - sorry
[20:27] <michal_> ktos z polski?

[20:28] <alaing> jrib KM0201 was trying to help me with my wifi issue and he asked me to got to admin/hardware drivers but I dont have the option on my menu
[20:28] <jrib> alaing: you want to use the gui?  Why not just install regular ubuntu instead of server?
[20:28] <StrangeCharm> jrib, the working directory?
[20:28] <KM0201> alaing: lol, i wasn't trying to help you with your wifi issue, i just asked if you saw anything in system admin drivers... i don't know much about that device
[20:28] <jrib> StrangeCharm: yes
[20:28] <KM0201> jrib: and thats what i asked..
[20:29] <Datz> BluesKaj: great, working now. thanks
[20:29] <tas> I installed some addons in my firefox, and not it won't run, anyone knows a solution other than a reinstall?
[20:29] <tas> now*
[20:29] <StrangeCharm> jrb aah, true enough. however now it just fails to start, without any error
[20:29] <jrib> StrangeCharm: improvement eh?
[20:29] <alaing> KM0201: its kind of forcing me to learn command
[20:29] <Dcite> tas: Start firefox safemode and remote the extensions you just installed.
[20:29] <jrib> StrangeCharm: what are you running *exactly*?
[20:29] <KM0201> alaing: how long have you been using linux
[20:30] <BluesKaj> Datz, np, we all forget those small but important commands sometimes
[20:30] <alaing> on/off 2 years
[20:30] <tas> Dcite, how to run firefox in safe mode??
[20:30] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  firefox has command line options to ruin it in safe mode or other ways disable stuff
[20:30] <StrangeCharm> jrib, the command? '/etc/init.d/thttpd start' i'm root
[20:30] <KM0201> alaing: well, you know you can learn command line on a desktop system?
[20:30] <ZykoticK9> Question #1 - does anyone know a way to disable a second monitor on TwinView from command line (instead of using nvidia-settings)?  Question #2 - MythTV when selecting WatchTV is crashing Xorg just when the station should start showing.
[20:30] <Datz> BluesKaj: I do more often than you might think :P
[20:30] <Dr_Willis_> tas: firefox --help
[20:30] <Coolslai> km0201 u there?
[20:30] <alaing> KM0201: yeah lol
[20:30] <Dcite> tas: Don't you see it under Applcations -> Internet ->   ???
[20:30] <KM0201> Coolslai: yup.
[20:30] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  or clean out the .mozilla directory :)
[20:30] <tas> Dcite, I only see firefox, not firefox safe mode
[20:30] <Dcite> tas: Please hold a moment..
[20:31] <inSaNo> opa
[20:31] <Datz> uwm
[20:31] <jrib> StrangeCharm: and you don't get a prompt again?  Can you pastebin the script?  Does reading it help?
[20:31] <Coolslai> km0201 ya okay well ridved left and left me with one more option to try, if it doesnt work, do you wanna help me?
[20:31] <inSaNo> boa tardea todos
[20:31] <jrib> !pt | inSaNo
[20:31] <KM0201> Coolslai: i'll try, but i can't imagine doing anything he hasnt tried the last 10hrs.. my only suggestion would be to start over
[20:31] <inSaNo> just in english here ?
[20:31] <Ray2> tas, Firefox -safe-mode from command line
[20:31] <as> window size 20
[20:31] <Dcite> tas: PLease run "firefox -safe-mode" without the quotes.
[20:31] <Coolslai> lolill do that as long as it doest lead to 10 hours of shit'
[20:31] <StrangeCharm> jrib, i'm using the defualt script for thttpd, which i installed with apt. there doesn't really seem to be anything juicy in there, but i can paste it if you like
[20:31] <Coolslai> oops language
[20:32] <Coolslai> srry
[20:32] <tas> Ray2, Dcite  it won't load like that either
[20:32] <Dcite> tas: Do you want your bookmarks intact?
[20:32] <KM0201> Coolslai: lol, well try this last thing, then we'll see what we can do.
[20:32] <Coolslai> km0201 ok
[20:32] <tas> Dcite, I have setup sync, so I don't think its a problem.
[20:32] <slide> Is there a way to mount a drive based on some ID instead of the /dev/sdX entry? Every time ive added a new drive, all my dev entries change
[20:32] <alaing> how can i ghost my current setup
[20:33] <Dcite> tas: Then open a command line to home
[20:33] <ZykoticK9> slide, UUIDs
[20:33] <alaing> I'm thinking perhaps I should get rid of server
[20:33] <guntbert> !blkid | slide
[20:33] <tas> Dcite, how? XD
[20:33] <Dcite> tas: mv .mozilla .mozilla-faik
[20:33] <CarlFK> alaing:   http://clonezilla.org/  ", based on DRBL, Partclone and udpcast, allows you to do bare metal backup and recovery. "
[20:33] <Dcite> tas: Err just start a terminal
[20:33] <Ray2> tas do you not seee a panel when you run the command
[20:33] <tas> Ray2, No I don't see the safe mode panel when I run the command.
[20:33] <Dcite> tas: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[20:33] <Dr_Willis_> slide:  you can mount via uuid, or even disk label. if you set up fstab right.
[20:33] <slide> ZykoticK9, do i just use that instead of the dev location in the fstab entry?
[20:33] <tas> Dcite, I am in termial. dunoo how to go to home via it
[20:34] <Dr_Willis_> slide:  or other ways i recall. but UUID is common
[20:34] <Dr_Willis_> !uuid
[20:34] <jrib> StrangeCharm: sure pastebin it so we can see if we can figure out what's going on.  Do you get a new prompt back when you attempt to run it?
[20:34] <Dcite> tas: You start in home, so.. just type the following.. mv .mozilla .mozilla-fail
[20:34] <ZykoticK9> slide, ya UUIDs replace the /dev/sdX# stuff
[20:34] <slide> awesome, thanks :D
[20:34] <StrangeCharm> jrib, yep, without delay
[20:34] <alaing> CarlFK: could you help me clone my hdd
[20:35] <tas> Dcite, mv: cannot stat `.mozilla': No such file or directory
[20:35] <Coolslai> km0201 well im trying his instructions now.... *crosses fingers*
[20:35] <jrib> StrangeCharm: well it's common not to get feedback when things work ok.  Did thttpd start?
[20:35] <CarlFK> alaing: dl the clonezilla iso, burn, boot, follow the prompts.
[20:35] <jrib> slide: you enter them as UUID=blahblahblahhere
[20:35] <Dcite> tas: Err... interesting.. how about mv ~/.mozilla ~/mozilla-fail
[20:35] <KM0201> Coolslai: i'm boiling goat hairs in bat blood and chanting now, sending you good vibes
[20:35] <slide> thanks :D
[20:36] <Coolslai> km0201 nope, nothing
[20:36] <Dcite> tas: I am assuming firefox worked at once points in time..
[20:36] <KM0201> i figured
[20:36] <alaing> CarlFK: its an 80gig with 64 free with the clone be 80gig?
[20:36] <tas> Dcite, mv: cannot stat `/home/tasaduq/.mozilla': No such file or directory
[20:36] <StrangeCharm> jrib, no, pidof thttpd is null a moment later, and the log file is empty
[20:36] <KM0201> Coolslai: so can the machine boot a CD drive?.. i thought he said it couldn't
[20:36] <alaing> I've got a 16gig usb
[20:36] <Coolslai> km0201 for some reason, no
[20:36] <KM0201> hmm
[20:36] <Dcite> tas: Has firefox ever run before?
[20:36] <Coolslai> km0201 I got a 8 GB flash drive ive been using though
[20:36] <tas> Dcite, yes I was on it few minutes ago, installed two addons, permatabs and faviconize tab.
[20:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: can it boot a USB?
[20:37] <CarlFK> alaing: it will only back up used blocks, and it does compression, so it should fit on a 16g usb
[20:37] <Coolslai> km0201 how do i know
[20:37] <StrangeCharm> jrib, pastebinning, just a minute
[20:37] <yaaar> hey guys. my 10.04 server install is failing at "select and install software" ...the menu indicates it's installing mlocate, but when i drop to shell, chroot and apt-get it, it appears bash-completion is actually what's failing to install (console message indicate same). any ideas on what's going wrong there? can i just tell it to bypass bash-completion and mlocate and move on?
[20:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: lol, you said it was pretty old, so i just assumed it couldn't
[20:37] <KM0201> Coolslai: how old is it?
[20:37] <Dcite> tas: It's odd that I cannot  find your firefox profile.. are you using an official ubuntu version ofa custom nightly?
[20:37] <Coolslai> 2002 or 2006 km0201 one of those
[20:37] <KM0201> lol, thats a big difference
[20:37] <tas> Dcite, official installed from download center.
[20:38] <Coolslai> i think 2002 km0201
[20:38] <KM0201> Coolslai: the biggest trick, will be to get Windows back on the machine.
[20:38] <KM0201> w/o a cd drive
[20:38] <Coolslai> km0201 I dont want windows
[20:38] <KM0201> Coolslai: oh.. ok.. you just want linux on the whole drive?
[20:38] <Coolslai> km0201 yeah, btw i have 2 drives
[20:38] <KM0201> ok...
[20:38] <Dcite> tas: Try firefox -ProfileManager   (This command is case sensitive)
[20:39] <KM0201> Coolslai: ok, on the machine you're on now, have you downloaded the 10.10 ISO?
[20:39] <Coolslai> but i want my C;\ drive wiped
[20:39] <Coolslai> yes
[20:39] <KM0201> Coolslai: well, we'll do that
[20:39] <KM0201> Coolslai: ok, hang on, lemme get you a link
[20:39] <Coolslai> kk
[20:39] <tas> Dcite, nothing happened..
[20:39] <StrangeCharm> jrib, http://pastebin.com/Gpqf2DF7
[20:39] <Dcite> tas: That should have brought up a small window...
[20:39] <tas> Dcite, it didn't..
[20:39] <KM0201> Coolslai: go here, and download this app... http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[20:40] <jrib> StrangeCharm: interesting, nothing is echoed to you at all?
[20:40] <Coolslai> btw no internet on comp i want wiped
[20:40] <Dcite> tas: ps auxw | grep -i firefox         <---- Does this command return anything?
[20:40] <tas> Dcite, I think I will just uninstall it and reinstall and not install any add-ons.. and leave it defaul
[20:40] <KM0201> Coolslai: thats no problem...
[20:40] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  thats windows thinking.
[20:40] <filo1234> Dcite: sound like an uninstalled application :p
[20:40] <nirazio> how to install the greasemonkey in google chrome / opera / midori ?????
[20:40] <Dcite> tas: Uninstalling it will not remove the settings normally, extensions are settings.
[20:40] <Coolslai> ok so what do i do with this once i DL
[20:40] <KM0201> Coolslai: as longas you're not using the Live CD
[20:40] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  Uninstallikg firefox will NOT remove the users settings.
[20:40] <tas> Dcite, yes it returns a lot of things.
[20:40] <Coolslai> km0201 Live CD?
[20:40] <Dr_Willis_> tas:    firefox -safe-mode
[20:40] <StrangeCharm> jrib, nothing at all
[20:41] <Claytonarvixe> I have a .txt that i'm doing a cat on with a grep -A1 for something.  I want to be able to put the results into a new file.  How do i do it since cat iStealer_6.0_export.txt > newlist.txt| grep -A1 hotmail.com does not work?
[20:41] <Coolslai> ok so what do i do with this once i DL km0201
[20:41] <Dcite> tas: PLease pastebin it
[20:41] <KM0201> Coolslai: i mean, as long as yu're USING the live cd.. alt cd won't work w/o internet access
[20:41] <tas> Dr_Willis_, I have tried that command it won't work
[20:41] <tas> Dcite, wait let me
[20:41] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  then you really got somthing broken.
[20:41] <genewitch> Hello, i need to figure out how to remove an apt-get of java, because my server crashes with this http://paste.pocoo.org/show/309055/ when i try to run dpkg --configure or whatever it tells me to do.
[20:41] <jrib> StrangeCharm: do other init scripts work ok?
[20:41] <KM0201> Coolslai: can you message me?.. this is scrolling so fast i can't keep track of you(on my netbook)
[20:41] <Coolslai> ugh... lemme re burn the cd
[20:41] <Coolslai> yeah
[20:41] <StrangeCharm> jrib, flawlessly
[20:41] <KM0201> Coolslai: i'll brb.. gonna let my dog out
[20:41] <tas> Dcite, http://pastebin.ca/2027551
[20:41] <Dr_Willis_> tas:  how about 'firefox --help' ?
[20:41] <jrib> StrangeCharm: which one did you try?
[20:42] <tas> Dr_Willis_, that command shows more commands i can use for firefox
[20:42] <StrangeCharm> jrib, which other init file?
[20:42] <jrib> StrangeCharm: yes
[20:42] <john565> Is this the right channel for problems installing ubuntu from the Live CD?
[20:42] <StrangeCharm> jrib, i've been using them continually, why?
[20:43] <hugh_> hey, I'm having trouble booting my 10.10 install. I get this on startup:
[20:43] <hugh_> init: Failed to spawn hostname main process: unable to execute: permission denied  init: Failed to spawn plymouth main process: unable to execute: permission denied  init: Failed to spawn hwclock ... (as above)  init: Failed to spawn mountall ...  init: Failed to spawn mountall: post-stop process: ...
[20:43] <jrib> StrangeCharm: try one now
[20:43] <hugh_> oh, lost the formatting on copy/paste
[20:43] <john565> On an old Dell with 256M RAM, the install CD gets as far as the graphical welcome screen, then nothing happens after clicking "Install".  Sometimes after a while the system crashes completely
[20:43] <jrib> john565: you plan on using the gui?
[20:44] <john565> yes
[20:44] <genewitch> john565: bad ram? run memtest
[20:44] <StrangeCharm> jrib, behaviour is as expected
[20:44] <jrib> john565: ubuntu will be very sluggish with only 256mb.  You should try xubuntu or use minimal and build from there
[20:44] <jrib> StrangeCharm: which one did you try?
[20:44] <john565> i have checked ram and checksummed the CD
[20:44] <StrangeCharm> jrib, tor
[20:44] <genewitch> john565: how long have you let the installer sit for?
[20:44] <john565> i realize it will run sluggishly but want to install anyway
[20:44] <john565> an hour
[20:44] <jrib> StrangeCharm: tor is also an init.d script (not really an upstart script)?
[20:45] <tas> Is there any flash video downloader? that downloads flash component from any site and not just youtube? XD
[20:45] <john565> it does not even get to the next screen where i presume one selects partitioning
[20:45] <genewitch> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. <--- how do i correct this WITHOUT running that command? which completely hard-locks my server?
[20:45] <StrangeCharm> jrib, i don't follow
[20:46] <wizardslovak> hello people
[20:46] <genewitch> tas: yes, there are lots of plugins for firefox, for instance.
[20:46] <wizardslovak> i cant boot from usb , i got asus mobo
[20:46] <Dcite> tas: kill -SIGKILL 4125 4129 4133 4297      (IF firefox has not started, do this only once) then try again.
[20:46] <aeon-ltd> wizardslovak: really no option in the bios?
[20:46] <wizardslovak> yes
[20:46] <jrib> StrangeCharm: if you read the tor script, it looks like a normal sysv-init script?  In any case, what's the exit status when you try to do "/etc/init.d/thttpd start"?
[20:46] <wizardslovak> i did enabled it , i pot it as first boot device
[20:46] <genewitch> wizardslovak: it'd be in the boot order section, you have to have the USB drive plugged in before entering BIOS
[20:46] <wizardslovak> but it says that no bootable  media found
[20:46] <tas> Dcite, no such process..
[20:47] <wizardslovak> and i made that usb from ubuntu
[20:47] <tas> genewitch, for instance?
[20:47] <john565> jrib: so is it known behaviour for the installer to hang with 256 M? because system requirements do have that as the minimum
[20:47] <dd070> hello ppl.
[20:47] <dd070> i m here first time
[20:47] <KM0201> john565: 256 is really not enough to use a Live CD Installer, look at the alternate install cd
[20:47] <genewitch> tas: hold on
[20:47] <Dcite> tas: That's fine.. I am trying to kill all firefox processes to see if it was just a stalled process.
[20:47] <john565> KM0201: thanks.
[20:47] <jrib> john565: I wouldn't bother with it.  Even if it worked, the system would be close to unusable
[20:47] <tas> Dcite, ok
[20:47] <StrangeCharm> jrib, i don't feel qualified to make that assessment. i don't know what the exit status is, how would i find out?
[20:48] <genewitch> tas: the one i use is called "Download Youtube Videos +" Version 2.3.1
[20:48] <kresp0> Hi, I cannot make that dhcp3-server starts on boot. Once booted, I can do "sudo service dhcp3-server start" and then works.
[20:48] <genewitch> tas: it does youtube, audio, and video, from any site.
[20:48] <john565> jrib: it's not my machine. the point is if it runs otherwise i will get the owner to add RAM
[20:48] <dd070> is it true that running Ubuntu on single core CPU not so enjoying ??
[20:48] <jrib> StrangeCharm: pastebin the tor script if you don't mind.  You can type "echo $?" after trying to start thttpd
[20:48] <Dcite> tas: 2 checks.. 1: does "ps auxw | grep -i firefox" still return alot of lines?   2: if not please start firefox again.
[20:48] <jrib> john565: I have installed on 256mb ram before.  Checksum the cd
[20:48] <john565> jrib: done
[20:48] <genewitch> Dcite: you do know there is a pgrep, right?
[20:48] <jrib> john565: actually, I may have installed hardy and upgraded
[20:49] <Dcite> genewitch: I'm too used to grep to use pgrep (saw it, didn't research it)
[20:49] <genewitch> there's pgrep and pkill
[20:49] <tas> Dcite, YAY!! it worked :D thanks!!
[20:49] <genewitch> pkill firefox sends a SIGTERM to the software. whatever the safe one is.
[20:49] <tas> Dcite, I reset it :D
[20:50] <joebob777as7> i'm trying to access an encrypted home directory followed a few guides and i keep getting my current home directory's files. need some help
[20:50] <Dcite> genewitch: I just wanted to kill anything related, child process or not ^_^
[20:50] <tas> Dcite, lol
[20:50] <john565> anyway, i will follow the suggestion and check the alternate installer
[20:50] <john565> thx
[20:50] <StrangeCharm> jrib, hang on, it looks like there's a typo in the script. i just flicked through the man page, and -p sets the port, not the pidfile. i suspect that this might be the source of the problem
[20:50] <Failican> Hey, I want to try out the proxyserver in ubuntu, how do I use it?
[20:50] <Dcite> tas: reset the whole system just for firefox ?!
[20:50] <zanus> is it possible to open up nautilus with multiple tabs in one command
[20:50] <genewitch> well there's different for firefox and firefox-bin
[20:50] <kresp0> Anybody knows how can I make the dhcp start when the machine boots?
[20:50] <tas> Dcite, oh no, the firefox is now reset..
[20:50] <kresp0> dhcp server
[20:51] <genewitch> kresp0: dhcpd needs to be added to init. if you want the client it's dhcpcd
[20:51] <tas> Dcite, I wonder if it happed cuz I disabled the ubuntu extension that comes with firefox?
[20:51] <Dcite> tas: Ah good to know. Also "downloadhelper"(VideoDownloadHelper) can down SOME flash/other content from sites.
[20:51] <kresp0> thanks genewitch
[20:51] <Dcite> tas: I can't answer, looked like flash froze hard.
[20:51] <tas> genewitch, can you give me link to download youtube videos + cant find it
[20:52] <tas> Dcite, thanks btw.
[20:52] <anberlin> ls
[20:52] <Dcite> tas: your welcome.
[20:52] <kresp0> genewitch, there is a S45dhcp3-server on /etc/rc2.d but seems to do nothing
[20:52] <genewitch> So can anyone help me with my 10.04 LTS server? i tried a while back to install java, and the server crashed similar to this http://paste.pocoo.org/show/309055/ now i can't apt-get install anything, it gives a message E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. Any idea how to undo the apt-get?
[20:53] <shcherbak> tas: use opera, there is nice plugin for youtube.
[20:53] <Dcite> genewitch: Did you do the command as requested?
[20:53] <genewitch> kresp0: are you sure it's not running? paste a ps aux to pastebin or pocoo.org
[20:53] <tas> shcherbak, and why is that plugin nice?
[20:53] <genewitch> Dcite: it tries to install java again. which hard locks the server.
[20:53] <ZykoticK9> genewitch, and have you already run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" ?
[20:53] <joebob777as7> this is the guide I followed: http://www.kaijanmaki.net/2009/10/26/recovering-files-from-ecryptfs-encrypted-home/ and I only get the files for my current home directory not the one in /media
[20:53] <joebob777as7> when i click on the link to my old files I get: The application launcher "Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop" has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe
[20:53] <kresp0> genewitch, 100 % sure (ps aux | grep dhcp)
[20:54] <shcherbak> tas: it add button under video - "download"
[20:54] <gabriel__> how can i know if im getting any sound from line in
[20:54] <gabriel__> i mean
[20:54] <jrib> StrangeCharm: that wouldn't explain the behavior you are experiencing though since there's an echo statement before any instance of "-p"
[20:54] <gabriel__> how can i know if there is anything coming from alsa://hw:ICH6,0 _
[20:54] <gabriel__> ?*
[20:54] <tas> shcherbak, whats the name of the plugin?
[20:54] <kresp0> genewitch, if I start manually the dhcpd server, i can see the process with "ps aux"
[20:54] <StrangeCharm> jrib, all right then, color me stumped again
[20:54] <genewitch> AAAAAAG
[20:54] <gabriel__> or alsa://hw:ICH6,1 or alsa://hw:ICH6,2 or whaT?
[20:54] <jrib> StrangeCharm: need that exit status :)
[20:54] <genewitch> kresp0: but not when you boot?
[20:54] <shcherbak> tas: moment...
[20:55] <slide> Im trying to setup mhddfs to combine multiple drives into one visible mount but after I mount it, my normal user can no longer access it at all, even though its permissions are world readable, all i get when i ls -l the root dir is ?? ??? ????
[20:55] <kresp0> genewitch, exactly

[20:55] <kresp0> genewitch, ok, reading....
[20:55] <genewitch> Ok to answer the two people that asked me if i run the dpkg command i get http://paste.pocoo.org/show/309055/

[20:56] <cg_cnu> hi every one....I have a hard disk problem. I have 3 hard disks. I installed ubuntu 10.10 in on of them. The remaining two have data. I am unable to see and access one partition form the 3 rd hard disk. can some one help me out.......

[20:57] <kresp0> genewitch, yep, I'm reading thanks
[20:57] <gondwana> cg_cnu: you need to install the file manager program to browse your harddrives.
[20:58] <StrangeCharm> jrib. i'm not sure what might be out of order. i own the conf file, root owns the binary. the conf is world readable, and the binary is world readable and executable
[20:58] <cg_cnu> gondwana: I am a noob in linux......so can you pls eloberate it for me...
[20:58] <tas> shcherbak, thanks :D
[20:58] <cg_cnu> gondwana, I just intalled the ubuntu 10.10 on my system. Before that I am using xp.
[20:58] <jrib> StrangeCharm: k, that's fine.  What's the contents of /etc/default/thttpd ?
[20:59] <genewitch> cg_cnu: was the data drive NTFS?
[20:59] <murk00> If I am running Meerkat, which verison of flash should I install???
[20:59] <gondwana> cg_cnu: me too, but i found out that ubuntu netbook edition dont come with a file manager.. so go to download software and install the 'file manager'
[20:59] <cg_cnu> genewitch, Yes...it it.

[20:59] <StrangeCharm> jrib, looks empty
[20:59] <kresp0> genewitch: I'm rebooting the server now, have to disconnect for 2 minutes. Thanks!
[20:59] <tas> Dcite, are you still there? XD
[20:59] <murk00> I have the 64bit version
[20:59] <genewitch> cg_cnu: did you do dynamic disk or anything like that in windows?
[21:00] <genewitch> cg_cnu: "convert to dynamic disk"
[21:00] <genewitch> cg_cnu: if so, you may have some problems - even other windows installations will have issues reading that drive.
[21:00] <cg_cnu> genewitch, No i think.......i didn't . But in the same hard disk. I am able to acess one partition but the other one is missing.
[21:00] <tas> Dcite, I installed another addon, called HIDE gui fore firefox, and now adressbar menu bar status bar are gone, is there anyway to access adon properties? XD
[21:00] <genewitch> cg_cnu: but for some reading: http://askubuntu.com/questions/9630/not-mounting-finding-1tb-ntfs-drive
[21:00] <StrangeCharm> jrib, must run, sorry
[21:00] <jrib> StrangeCharm: test -s /etc/default/thttpd    exits with what status?
[21:01] <jrib> StrangeCharm: well if that's a 1, that's your issue
[21:01] <tas> Dcite, I had used that addon in firefox in windows, normally when I install the addon, after restart I get to choose what to hide.. but here I didn't get it x_X
[21:03] <gondwana> anybody know how to remove or hide the bar on the left that is always there taking space?
[21:03] <genewitch> Last week my 10.04 server crashed when i tried to apt-get java. Now i can't install anything with apt-get, it says "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." when i run that command, it freezes again (because it's just trying to install java again) with these errors on the VC: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/309055/ How do i tell apt to stop trying to install java?
[21:03] <tas> Dcite, FOUND IT! :D
[21:04] <cg_cnu> Genewitch: I was able to access one partition in the same hard disk.....I even opened the same hd in windios and checked for errors and defragmented it. It is looking fine in windows.
[21:05] <cg_cnu> genewitch, Its not the case that the whole hard disk is not accessing. I have problem with only one partition,....
[21:05] <genewitch> cg_cnu: it's probably not automounting is all. You need to do some reading on how to determine what /dev/sd* it is, and then how to mount /dev/sd*2 as ntfs to wherever you want it. if there's a way to do it from the desktop, someone else here can help. i'm a Command Line Interface sort of guy.
[21:06] <cg_cnu> genewitch, oh.........its ok.....thanks.
[21:06] <genewitch> I'm talking in here from irssi on a shell to an imac running gentoo that's connected to a screen in virginia on an ubuntu server. so...
[21:06] <cg_cnu> I am unable to access one partition in my hard disk.......can some one help me out.
[21:07] <Goddard> you know what
[21:07] <Goddard> evolution sucks!
[21:07] <genewitch> cg_cnu: say "one of my partitions is not being automounted" it's more descriptive.
[21:07] <genewitch> cg_cnu: also, the fact that it is NTFS should be in there somewhere.
[21:07] <gondwana> Someone have problem with the closing the lid function on netbook edition? when I close my lid the screen go black and dosnt start up again and i have to restart netbook with power switch...
[21:07] <artos> Hello
[21:08] <artos> I'm having major problems with ubuntu and dual booting, and I'm desperate for help
[21:08] <cg_cnu> genewitch, oh.......thanks for the info...i will....
[21:08] <Goddard> artos: whats the problem?
[21:08] <lighta> hi guys, eh who can point me a good programs to look ext3 on windows ?
[21:08] <mgolisch> there is none
[21:08] <lighta> cg_gnu what your fstab config ?
[21:08] <kresp0>  genewitch: this doesnt work :(
[21:08] <lighta> oups it's cg_cnu*
[21:09] <cg_cnu> "one of my partitions in the ntfs hard disk  is not being automounted".....can some one help me out.....
[21:09] <mgolisch> cg_cnu: its probably dirty
[21:09] <mgolisch> ie not unmounted cleanly
[21:09] <cg_cnu> lighta, hi.......ya........i again went to xp and checked for errors and defragmented it.......
[21:09] <lighta> it's not unmounted, it's mounted I think
[21:10] <SimplySeth> greetings .. attempting to compile a kernel module .. how do I tell Make not to use the current kernel and specify another ?
[21:10] <genewitch> kresp0: i am sorry, you're beyond what i know about servers of that sort.
[21:10] <cg_cnu> mgolisch,  even after that it is showing the same ....
[21:10] <mgolisch> cg_cnu: did you properly disconnect it?
[21:10] <genewitch> .
[21:10] <Goddard> to bad you can use office on linux
[21:10] <Goddard> *t
[21:10] <mgolisch> cg_cnu: like using that green remove usb device thing?
[21:11] <genewitch> SimplySeth: run make in that kernel's source directory?
[21:11] <cg_cnu> mgolisch, no its not an external thing.........its internal and i have a xp dual boot. which i do using the grub.
[21:11] <mgolisch> cg_cnu: ah i see
[21:11] <aeon-ltd> SimplySeth: that should be in the makefile as a parameter
[21:11] <lighta> uh but cg_cnu did you point disk on your fstab file ?
[21:11] <artos> I have Windows7 installed on a partition on disk 'hdc'. This is partition /dev/sdc1. I tried to install Ubuntu from the LiveCD to /dev/sdc3. I cannot get my boot loader to work: after booting it goes straight to loading Windows 7.
[21:12] <artos> Here is my 'fdisk -l' output: http://pastebin.com/E2Q6xGJt
[21:12] <rcharles> how do you change the paths of the folders in nautilus places sidebar  (not the bookmarks)
[21:12] <cg_cnu> lighta, hi.......I am a noob in linux......can you pls eloberate the things for me..........pls
[21:12] <kresp0> genewitch: this fix doesnt work :(
[21:12] <Goddard> artos: it is super easy to do this if you install ubuntu after 7
[21:12] <artos> that's what I did
[21:12] <mgolisch> lighta: there is fs-driver.org it can do extfs but id generaly not use stuff like that, id just go with something windows can read natively if you need to exchange data
[21:12] <Goddard> artos: did you use the correct settings when doing the install?
[21:12] <mgolisch> cg_cnu: did you add a fstab entry for that filesystem?
[21:13] <mgolisch> internal volumes are never automounted
[21:13] <lighta> cg_cnu, nano /etc/fstab display info on pastebin please
[21:13] <cg_cnu> mgolisch, how to do that..........?
[21:13] <artos> I created an extended partition /dev/sdc3, then pointed it there. For the bootloader I chose the location /dev/sdc (which was wrong, I think).
[21:13] <SimplySeth> okay how do I tell make to give me a list of its params ?
[21:13] <gondwana> rcharles: good question! i also want to know this. ubuntu is a bit complicated to find out yourself.
[21:13] <aeon-ltd> SimplySeth: just read the makefile
[21:13] <SimplySeth> aeon-ltd: .. thanks
[21:13] <Goddard> artos: you can pretty much use the default settings and just delete all other partitions except the windows
[21:13] <lighta> hmm yeah mgolisch I have a shared partition on nfts but i'll try your prog thx
[21:13] <cg_cnu> lighta, you mean i have to type..... nano /etc/fstab in to terminal and paste bin the output.
[21:14] <lighta> yes
[21:14] <artos> yeah..
[21:14] <Goddard> artos: except you will want to let the installer know you want to keep the windows os
[21:14] <artos> so now I have /dev/sdc1 with Win7, /dev/sdc3 with Ubuntu, and I'm not getting the bootloader menu
[21:14] <artos> I just boot straight into Win7
[21:14] <genewitch> kresp0: i saw. the only thing i can thing of is that it is not configured correctly. It's outside my area of expertise.
[21:14] <aeon-ltd> SimplySeth: sorry, but for one time compiles its easier to edit the file than to override during the process
[21:14] <cg_cnu> lighta, ok......here is the link.  http://pastebin.com/y5buMDn8
[21:14] <genewitch> artos: hold down F8 when booting - does that give you options?
[21:15] <Goddard> artos: i heard people editing this and it sounded like a hassle to me so I just gave reinstalling ubuntu again till i got it right
[21:15] <kresp0> ok, thank you for your help genewitch
[21:15] <artos> I can try that genewitch
[21:15] <Goddard> artos: ya F8 might show results
[21:15] <sm> g'day all. I have used https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed to work around https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/672352 , but the same procedure fails on another machine. The config looks good but aptitude doesn't show the package version from -proposed. Any idea why this could be, or when this is likely to move from proposed to maverick ?
[21:15] <genewitch> artos: windows will let you load ubuntu, AND ubuntu will let you load windows, you have to pick which way you want it to work before you install the bootloader for either OS.
[21:15] <genewitch> artos: another thing you can do, if you give me one second
[21:15] <gondwana> So nobody know how to change the paths of places in the sidebar?
[21:16] <artos> I tried to fix GRUB2 from the terminal, but to no avail
[21:16] <genewitch> artos: which terminal?
[21:16] <Goddard> genewitch: dont think windows lets you
[21:16] <artos> the terminal in the livecd ubuntu
[21:16] <keldrum> artos, you can do repair install from Ubuntu CD & have it reinstall Grub in the master boot record
[21:16] <genewitch> Goddard: it does, WUBI uses it to dual boot.
[21:16] <Goddard> genewitch: oh this is wubi
[21:16] <artos> really?
[21:16] <cg_cnu> lighta,  is that ok.....or anything worng.
[21:16] <artos> it gives me two options keldrum: install or 'try now', which loads the LiveCD
[21:16] <Goddard> genewitch: i didnt use wubi
[21:17] <genewitch> Goddard: well you can tell windows' bootloader to load another OS the same as you can tell grub.
[21:17] <lighta> hmm, it's the file I wanted if you mean this
[21:17] <yaaar> is it possible to install ubuntu 10.04 server with a usb drive as /
[21:17] <lighta> you need to add the mouted point
[21:17] <lighta> is your partition internal
[21:17] <artos> but does it matter what type my partitions are? If they are extended or primary?
[21:17] <lighta> or usb ?
[21:17] <Goddard> genewitch: you can "tell it" by editing the bootloader ya but if you do the install right it is automatic
[21:17] <lighta> can you see it on something like dolphin ?
[21:17] <lighta> dispay df
[21:17] <genewitch> artos: in windows, go to my computer and right click and select properties, in there on the left select advanced system settings, in there go to the advanced tab, in there click the startup and recovery settings button
[21:18] <keldrum> artos - use the install option. should detect existing OSs & give option to repair Grub
[21:18] <genewitch> artos: in that window you can select how long the boot prompt shows up in the windows bootloader.
[21:18] <Goddard> artos: or type msconfig
[21:18] <genewitch> artos: thus making it so you don't have to press F8.
[21:18] <Jordan> I'm on webchat.freenote.net
[21:18] <Jordan> how do I see a list of channels?
[21:18] <artos> yeah but i don't want the windows bootloader, i want grub to load first, right?
[21:18] <genewitch> Jordan: /list
[21:18] <industry__> Jordan: /list?
[21:18] <Goddard> artos: same thing
[21:19] <Jordan> thanks
[21:19] <needhelp1> the wubi installer says it has most of the features of a regular ubuntu install, whats missing ?
[21:19] <kreign> hi, I'm trying to identify what the smallest possible ubuntu 10.04 server install is.
[21:19] <genewitch> needhelp1: the ability to partition your disk, and that sort of thing
[21:19] <kreign> rather, is it possible to not install the 'full amount'?
[21:19] <genewitch> needhelp1: also you can't do a net install.
[21:19] <kreign> wondering if I can crap base + some extra packages in under 1GB
[21:19] <industry__> kreign: you can pick which packages you want to install.
[21:19] <Jordan> The /list isn't working
[21:19] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: the real filesystem
[21:19] <keldrum> Artos - if grub is installed in the MBR (during repair), it will replace windows bootloader
[21:19] <kreign> industry__, hmm where are those options specified?
[21:19] <industry__> but i wouldn't suggest getting rid of base -- those are generally important files
[21:20] <artos> yeah exactly
[21:20] <selim> bonsoir! hello!
[21:20] <industry__> in the installer, I don't know, usually I remove extraneous packages via apt-get after installation
[21:20] <needhelp1> aeon-ltd, when i when to finish the wubi installer, it did create a new ext4 partition though ...
[21:20] <artos> In my fdisk -l output only one partition is marked as 'boot': the Windows 7 one. http://pastebin.com/E2Q6xGJt
[21:20] <kreign> industry__, any idea if I could push the 'base install' under 800Mb?
[21:20] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: oh right, you didn't do the contained inside windows install
[21:20] <selim> quelqu'un est français?
[21:20] <artos> This made me suspicious, shouldn't the Ubuntu  partition also be marked as boot?
[21:20] <industry__> but that doesn't help if you have limited space to install on and you need to cut down the system during installation
[21:20] <murk00> I had a fresh copy of Meerkat installed and whenever I try to install firefox addons i get a error and it wont let me install them
[21:20] <Goddard> artos: no
[21:21] <genewitch> Last week my 10.04 server crashed when i tried to apt-get java. Now i can't install anything with apt-get, it says "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." when i run that command, it freezes again (because it's just trying to install java again) with these errors on the VC: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/309055/ How do i tell apt to stop trying to install java?
[21:21] <artos> ok
[21:21] <industry__> kreign: i'm probably not the best person to ask about this, i haven't tried before.
[21:21] <robertzaccour> how do i connect to facebook in empathy? i keep getting network error
[21:21] <cg_cnu>  "one of my partitions in the ntfs hard disk  is not being automounted".....can some one help me out.....
[21:21] <artos> i will try to reinstall one more using the default settings then
[21:21] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: then you essentially missed nothing, you only miss some features if you do the inside windows install
[21:21] <artos> and hope for a grub repair dialog
[21:21] <artos> ill be back later, hopefully
[21:21] <genewitch> artos: the windows vista/7 bootloader is a lot more feature rich than it used to be. pastebin your grub.conf
[21:22] <keldrum> make sure to put Grub on MBR
[21:22] <genewitch> artos: what keldrum said.
[21:22] <ikonia> genewitch: is that on the amazon cloud
[21:22] <genewitch> ikonia: yes.
[21:22] <artos> yeah if the installer lets me i certainly will
[21:22] <genewitch> ikonia: that's irrelevant. i decided i don't want java after all, i just want a working package manager again.
[21:22] <artos> i thought it would do that automatically
[21:22] <artos> bbl
[21:22] <ikonia> genewitch: you may want to call them as that is a serious issue
[21:22] <Goddard> why does evolution suck so bad with gmail
[21:22] <genewitch> artos: it does ask you.
[21:22] <industry__> genewitch: maybe try dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq --remove on the package?
[21:23] <needhelp1> aeon-ltd, thanks for the information
[21:23] <ikonia> industry__: it's not going to work as it's segfaulting
[21:23] <artos> i used the advanced partitioning thing
[21:23] <industry__> dpkg is segfaulting?
[21:23] <genewitch> industry__: how do i determine which package it is? as i said this was last week, it was sun-jre-java6 or something
[21:23] <needhelp1> aeon-ltd, the weird thing is, it didnt have the normal partion manager that ask's where i want to put the new filesystem ... seems like that is risky
[21:23] <genewitch> industry__: java hangs the server for some reason
[21:24] <needhelp1> aeon-ltd, could of wrote over the windows ntfs portion
[21:24] <artos> hmm I can launch the installer from the live cd
[21:24] <kresp0> genewitch, and for the record: finally got the dhcpd working on boot adding "sleep 30" under /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server "start" option
[21:24] <dotblank> Hello all!
[21:24] <ikonia> industry__: it appears to be causing a kernel panic
[21:24] <industry__> you can look up package names with aptitude earh
[21:24] <artos> ill run it now, so I can stay on iRC
[21:24] <industry__> "aptitude search", sorry
[21:24] <kresp0> adding sleep 30s
[21:24] <genewitch> kresp0: good to know, i am glad you got it working.
[21:24] <genewitch> i'll try and remember that for the future.
[21:24] <kresp0> thank you, bye
[21:24] <cg_cnu> one of my partitions in the ntfs hard disk  is not being automounted.....can some one help me out
[21:25] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: hmm, next time you boot into windows check your 'C:/' directory if there is a file there over the size of 8gb then that is the ext4 fs inside a file
[21:25] <dotblank> cg_cnu, most likely it wasn't cleanly unmounted
[21:25] <DasEi> cg_cnu: yupp
[21:25] <genewitch> ikonia: i don't think the package manager is segfaulting
[21:25] <ikonia> genewitch: it certainly appears to be causing a kernel panic
[21:25] <DasEi> cg_cnu: add it to fstab
[21:25] <industry__> ikonia, are we talking about the same thing?
[21:25] <cg_cnu> DasEi, how to do that.....
[21:25] <dotblank> cg_cnu, use the auto option
[21:25] <needhelp1> aeon-ltd, if there is, does that mean its the ubuntu inside windows like you spoke about
[21:25] <needhelp1> ?
[21:25] <DasEi> cg_cnu: open a terminal ..
[21:25] <genewitch> ikonia: it's saying java is tainted, whatever the hell that means.
[21:25] <dotblank> !fstab
[21:25] <cg_cnu> DasEi, ok..
[21:25] <DasEi> cg_cnu: sudo fdisk -l
[21:25] <lighta> cg_cnu, check ur pm
[21:25] <ikonia> genewitch: it's also segfaulting the kernel
[21:26] <ikonia> oops, panicing the kernel I mean
[21:26] <ikonia> genewitch: is your machine hanging ?
[21:26] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: yes
[21:26] <DasEi> cg_cnu: which parti is it ? /dev/sd..
[21:26] <genewitch> ikonia: yeah, i gathered that because i have to reboot from the admin console.
[21:26] <ikonia> genewitch: right, so contact amazon
[21:26] <industry__> genewitch,ikonia: oh yeah, that is a kernel panic
[21:26] <cg_cnu> DasEi, what is pm.
[21:26] <genewitch> it's not amazon's kernel, it's ubuntu's
[21:27] <dotblank> DasEi, well it will show the ntfs drive is of the ntfs type
[21:27] <ikonia> genewitch: it's hosted on amazons platform
[21:27] <genewitch> the EC2 kernel is alive and well on the admin console.
[21:27] <industry__> that's pretty strange though. still, you should be able to uninstall it through the package manager
[21:27] <dotblank> DasEi, oh whoops
[21:27] <genewitch> ikonia: that's like saying call dell if my laptop's ubuntu install is hanging.
[21:27] <DasEi> dotblank: nvm
[21:27] <KM0201> lol
[21:27] <DasEi> cg_cnu: I'll pm you
[21:27] <genewitch> ec2 kernel is still running, it's the ubuntu kernel that's crashing.
[21:27] <ikonia> genewitch: it's not, as the amazon virtual platform / cloud has been known to cause issues like this
[21:27] <alaing> KM0201: my link is a ralink
[21:27] <keldrum> anyone know parameters to get uShare to make music & pics available to xBox 360? Movie share is working already & all three shares listed in /etc/uShare.conf
[21:28] <industry__> genewitch: it seems to be a panic in hypervisor (virtual machine) code
[21:28] <ikonia> industry__: exactly
[21:28] <industry__> which is probably why you're being told to talk to amazon.
[21:28] <alaing> KM0201: rt2870
[21:28] <KM0201> alaing: which one, there's like 3 or 4 different ones i think (whats the numbers after ralink?)
[21:28] <DasEi> cg_cnu: saw the addional window in your messenger ?
[21:28] <DasEi> ah
[21:28] <SimplySeth> anyone use a HighPoint RocketRaid 2310 ... if so can the annoying blue screen be disabled ? Thanks.
[21:28] <genewitch> i don't have a service contract - i just want to tell apt to forget everything it knows about java.
[21:28] <industry__> since that would be their hypervisor
[21:28] <ikonia> genewitch: it's not that
[21:28] <dotblank> keldrum, I am not familiar with that software.. have you tried access their support channels perhaps they have a channel on freenode?
[21:28] <ikonia> SimplySeth: contact highpoint support, we don't support your hardware here
[21:29] <industry__> well like I said, you can try to force remove the package, but chances are this wont help
[21:29] <industry__> wel, if it doesn't work
[21:29] <artos> Ok so I'm in the installer, in the Advanced Partitioning dialog: http://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ScreenshotInstall.png
[21:29] <SimplySeth> ikonia: yeah .. but I took the chance that perhaps someone knows how to disable it .. thanks
[21:29] <alaing> KM0201: managed to install jocket-gfk and jockey-text and now it shows my the hardware drivers options. I found those details by typeing in the terminal lsusb
[21:29] <dotblank> genewitch, you want to remove java from apt? but have a different version installed out of repo?
[21:29] <artos> I have a /dev/sdc3 partition that I created earlier, its ext4 and has Ubuntu on it. But I will reformat for this install
[21:29] <genewitch> i don't want java at all, dotblank
[21:30] <artos> Then in the bottom there is "Device for boot loader installation". What should I select?
[21:30] <genewitch> i was going to try and run a minecraft server, but someone else took care of it, so i don't need java at all.
[21:30] <artos> /dev/sdc? /dev/sdc3?
[21:30] <genewitch> artos: MBR
[21:30] <dotblank> genewitch, you should be able to just remove it with apt normally unless its different on the cloud?
[21:30] <genewitch> artos: master boot record
[21:30] <Fugue> Hello, having trouble installing UNR
[21:30] <alaing> KM0201: brb jjust switching machines
[21:30] <dotblank> genewitch, do you know if you are using the sun jvm or openjdk's
[21:30] <genewitch> dotblank: it never fully installed, the kernel paniced on the apt-get install java part
[21:30] <aeon-ltd> !details | Fugue
[21:31] <dotblank> genewitch, ouch thats scary
[21:31] <ikonia> genewitch: it's a problem with the amazon platform
[21:31] <alaing> back
[21:31] <dotblank> genewitch, that really shouldn't happen
[21:31] <fofix-xbox> cd..
[21:31] <genewitch> alright i'll just start the thing from scratch.
[21:31] <Fugue> when booting from USB drive, the command line runs but the install graphic nevr shows up
[21:31] <keldrum> artos: /dev/sdc to get Grub on MBR & uncheck formatting or data on those partitions will be lost. Did it recognize windows on the other partition?
[21:31] <industry__> the only thing you can do is try to remove the package in its inconsistent state, and if that doesn't work, then you'll need to talk to amazon.
[21:31] <genewitch> there's really no way i am going to sit around on a forum and wait for a reply, an hour and a half in here was more than enough. thanks for your time, guys.
[21:32] <Fugue> it's a brand new Lenovo S10-3
[21:32] <dotblank> Fugue, did you place the regular desktop image on the flash drive or did you use a minimal/server image?
[21:33] <alaing> KM0201: I have two usb wifi attached now and they both show up when i try iwconfig
[21:33] <alaing> how do you pastein results
[21:33] <dotblank> Fugue, also did you see any errors?
[21:33] <hbullen> Hey I'm unable to remove a file on my system.  Even when using sudo rm -f I get the error "rm: cannot remove 'file': Invalid argument"
[21:33] <Fugue> I used the universal usb creator app to install the .iso on the USB key, as per the instructions on the website
[21:33] <keldrum> artos: /dev/sdc will put grub in the MBR & replace the windows bootloader code which is what you want.
[21:33] <KM0201> alaing: hang on
[21:33] <dotblank> hbullen, try encapsulating the filenam in quotes
[21:34] <genewitch> alaing: from what? you can pipe to wgetpaste in a terminal, or you can copy and paste from a notepad style window, or you can copy and paste from a terminal as well
[21:34] <genewitch> !pastebin
[21:34] <Goddard> genewitch: i need a new laptop
[21:34] <dotblank> You can use the command line pastebinit
[21:34] <Datz> !uptime
[21:34] <genewitch> it's different for every distro :-D
[21:35] <SimplySeth> command line pastebin .. goes to search
[21:35] <dotblank> also that only takes stdin so if you want stderr too you have to redurect stderr to stdin
[21:35] <dotblank> err stdout
[21:35] <alaing> genewitch: pasteine results from command line
[21:35] <genewitch> SimplySeth: pastebinit
[21:35] <genewitch> alaing: ^
[21:35] <genewitch> alaing: for instance, say you want to paste the output from ifconfig.
[21:35] <robertzaccour> how do i connect to facebook in empathy? i keep getting network error
[21:35] <SimplySeth> genewitch: .. installing .. thx
[21:35] <dotblank> ifconfig -a | pastebinit
[21:35] <artos> Ok keldrum
[21:35] <genewitch> alaing: you'd type ifconfig | pastebinit
[21:35] <artos> so /dev/sdc then
[21:36] <artos> These are my options: http://img228.imageshack.us/i/screenshotvb.png/
[21:36] <alaing> genewitch: thanks I'll try that
[21:36] <genewitch> alaing: the | is called a pipe, it's on the same key as \ on a US keyboard.
[21:36] <hbullen> dotblank, I've tried that it gives me the same error.  Also I get the same error using (mv or cp) and when I do ls -l I get question marks in place all the columns for that file.
[21:36] <artos> There seems to be a Win7 installation recognized on /dev/sda1, but there isnt one
[21:36] <dotblank> robertzaccour, you can connect to FB using the jabber protocol or XMPP
[21:36] <alaing> lol thanks i know what a pipe is .....lots of things can run through pipe like water
[21:36] <genewitch> hbullen: is it in a directory full of files?
[21:36] <artos> I think that is left from an earlier installation...
[21:37] <industry__> alaing -- not the same as a physical pipe
[21:37] <dotblank> hbullen, can you paste your complete command that you use?
[21:37] <cotton_> wait was that referring to FB chat in the cli with jabber?
[21:37] <alaing> industry__: it can be when it double pipe ||
[21:37] <hbullen> genewitch yes it is a directory
[21:37] <alaing> hehehehe
[21:37] <hbullen> dotblank: I do ls -l and get: "?????????? ? ?    ?     ?                ? net"
[21:38] <dotblank> hbullen, ? marks.. hmm have you tried mv'ing it to a normal filename using wildcards?
[21:38] <dotblank> hbullen, whoa
[21:38] <dotblank> what options is the fs mounted as?
[21:39] <ppq> hi. i think my ubuntu got infected. look at this please: http://pastebin.com/AyNvsUAg  i can't complain it :(
[21:39] <hbullen> dotblank, when I to a move with wildcards I still the the Invalid argument error
[21:39] <alaing> KM0201: ok waiting
[21:40] <dotblank> ppq, was that download with apt-get source?
[21:40] <Fugue> the install stalls at [6.748937} agpgart_intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xd0000000
[21:40] <dotblank> and your build environment is the same as ubuntu's autobuilder?
[21:40] <ppq> dotblank: no, i downloaded it manually from apckages.ubuntu.com
[21:40] <keldrum> artos: hmm...tricky. I noticed sda & sdc are identical disks, are you using software raid under windows?
[21:41] <geirha> hbullen: I'd do a filesystem check
[21:41] <KM0201> alaing: all i can really tell you, i just checked my USB wireles device(i rarely use it)... and its running the same chipset yours is.. and it works out of the box w/ Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop..
[21:41] <KM0201> alaing: i plug it in, it detect networks, i connect.
[21:41] <ppq> dotblank: any idea? :(
[21:41] <alaing> I'm using 10.04
[21:41] <ppq> i'm pretty scared
[21:41] <alaing> :(
[21:41] <KM0201> alaing: well.. i dunno about 10.04
[21:41] <dotblank> ppq, oh hmm
[21:42] <PeterFabinski> hi
[21:42] <KM0201> alaing: you're also using server edition... i don't know if server edition and desktop edition, have the same kernel.. since i'm guessing most servers, aren't hooked up to USB wireless adapters
[21:42] <dotblank> ppq, use a dpkg -l | grep dash
[21:42] <blackdeagle> hi
[21:42] <dotblank> ppq, make sure verson number is the same
[21:42] <ppq> dotblank: ii  dash                                                             <IP_ADDRESS>-3ubuntu2                                        POSIX-compliant shell <-- it defenitely is
[21:42] <alaing> KM0201: yeah I suppose so
[21:43] <KM0201> alaing: you said you had two wireless devices, what is the other one?
[21:43] <dotblank> ppq, can you run file /bin/dash
[21:43] <alaing> KM0201: a no name brand g one
[21:43] <dotblank> "file /bin/dash"
[21:43] <KM0201> alaing: is it internal?
[21:43] <ppq> dotblank: /bin/dash: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped
[21:43] <alaing> KM0201: no usb as well
[21:43] <KM0201> alaing: oh ok.
[21:44] <Goddard> wow evolution sucks compared to thunderbird!!!!
[21:44] <alaing> thats working perfectly and i did not have to install any drivers
[21:44] <ppq> dotblank: oh, i'm so stupid. i'm using prelink. darn :D
[21:44] <KM0201> alaing: like i said, i'm not 100%, cuz i don't mess w/ server installs.. but i'm guessing most don't auto detect wireless devices..
[21:44] <KM0201> alaing: well then use it?
[21:44] <dotblank> ppq, I'd recommand to reinstall the package or make sure your repos are correct and have only trusted sources
[21:44] <nasser> hi!
[21:44] <dotblank> ppq, oh ok
[21:44] <alaing> KM0201: I want to upgrade to n. it picks it up but just doesn't connect to my network
[21:45] <ppq> dotblank: anyway, thanks for your help :)
[21:45] <Goddard> wow why is ubuntu using evolution?
[21:45] <alaing> i see it searching and it asks me for the password and wpa etc I removed those setting and openned the connection and still did not connect
[21:45] <dotblank> Goddard, why not
[21:45] <KM0201> alaing: i really dont know
[21:45] <aeon-ltd> Goddard: cause the devs say so
[21:46] <dotblank> Goddard, I like my ubuntu able to to sign my messages with my pgp key
[21:46] <industry__> dotblank: Thunderbird can also sign messages
[21:46] <nasser> has anyone know how to manage iPod shuffle 3g in ubuntu 10.10? I tried to delete all the files even the hidden ones and then i transfer some music stuff using banshee but then when i switch on my iPod it says: please, opne iTunes to sync your music. Please, help!
[21:46]  * SimplySeth thinks its ridiculous how well an MCE remote works in Ubuntu
[21:46] <keldrum> artos: if you're not sure which disk is your boot disk, install grub to /dev/sdc & reboot. if grub didn't replace the windows bootloader then install to /dev/sdc.
[21:47] <Goddard> dotblank: thats it?
[21:47] <denieru> How do I use fstab to make a disk "executeable" so I can run programs from it via wine?
[21:47] <keldrum> artos: sorry, that should read, sdc first & then try sda
[21:47] <alaing> KM0201: no problems thanks for your time anyway. really appreciate it
[21:47] <aeon-ltd> Goddard: pretty good protection
[21:47] <Goddard> dotblank: seriously have you tried hooking up evolution to an existing gmail account with like 30 folders
[21:47]  * alaing needs some sleep
[21:47] <dotblank> Goddard, well I like evolution but thats just me.. you don't have to use evolution you can use anything you want
[21:47] <alaing> see you laters ppl
[21:47] <aeon-ltd> Goddard: *privacy
[21:47] <Goddard> dotblank: i know that i am just trying to have a debate not an argument
[21:48] <Goddard> dotblank: have you used thunderbird recently?
[21:48] <Goddard> dotblank: it was so simple to setup took me like 30 seconds to setup all 4 of my email accounts
[21:48] <dotblank> Goddard, No, but I belive the reason for evolution's use is because it intergrates with gnome easily
[21:48] <Goddard> dotblank: i tried with evolution and it was so painful and one account still wont download all my mail
[21:49] <Goddard> dotblank: i see
[21:49] <nasser> has anyone know how to manage iPod shuffle 3g in ubuntu 10.10? I tried to delete all the files even the hidden ones and then i transfer some music stuff using banshee but then when i switch on my iPod it says: please, opne iTunes to sync your music. Please, help!
[21:49] <rmg5810> I am trying to load 10.10 on an old Dell Inspiron 8000 (ATI M4 video).  The screen comes up with vertical split sections.  I see some legacy solutions, by editing the xorg.conf file, but my system doesn't seem to have one.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?  I am a total newbie.  Sorry in advance.
[21:49] <ray24> How to turn off auto vocabulary fill in openoffice word?
[21:49] <dotblank> Goddard, well most users don't have a huge amount of folders.. but it seems to handle everything just fine for me
[21:50] <KM0201> rmg5810: you'll probably have to use the alternate install CD to accomplish the install (at least I did).. then once installed, you can go from there trying to set the card up.
[21:50] <Goddard> dotblank: hmm ya i have two gmail accounts one was semi new but the other was years old and it doesn't work and doesn't even error out they have the same settings
[21:50] <dotblank> Goddard, also I think the mozilla license is a bit restrictive.. remember how there was a fuss with firefox asking for you to accept the eula
[21:51] <Goddard> dotblank: the 10.10 release did come with ubuntu though correct? and its open source?
[21:51] <Goddard> mozilla
[21:51] <dotblank> Goddard, I think they found a way around it
[21:52] <dotblank> Well I like my chromium :)
[21:52] <gabriel__> how can i know wich of the modules of the aplay -L its my line-in
[21:52] <Goddard> dotblank: ya it is nice
[21:52] <gabriel__> which*
[21:52] <rmg5810> KMo201: thanks.
[21:52] <Goddard> dotblank: still not as many plugins and features as mozilla though but it is faster
[21:53] <dotblank> Goddard, all I want is speed... and chromium is a must on the netbook
[21:53] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> namoroka vs minefield
[21:53] <Goddard> dotblank: i do some web dev stuff so its nice ot have the extra stuff
[21:53] <Linden940> my cd drive stopped working and i am starting to lose hair any ideas?
[21:53] <Goddard> dotblank: chromium doesn't let you kill javascript which annoys me sometimes
[21:53] <dotblank> Goddard, firebug is nice but the chromedev tools are also nice
[21:54] <Goddard> dotblank: or the web dev toolbar
[21:54] <Tannerbaum> Ibn_Ali_al-Turki: namoroka is 3.6.x and minefield is nightly
[21:54] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> Download the Muslim version of Ubuntu at http://www.sabily.org
[21:54] <dotblank> Ibn_Ali_al-Turki, umm whats the difference?
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> the packages
[21:55] <leagris> dotblank, it's halal Ubuntu ?
[21:55] <dotblank> um how?
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> lot of stuff that you would need to download or want to download with ubuntu
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> is already included in distro
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> plus lots of programs
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> Islamic ones
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> included in distro
[21:55] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> :)
[21:55] <Goddard> dotblank: i havent tried the chromdev tools
[21:55] <FloodBot2> Ibn_Ali_al-Turki: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:55] <rewt> does it come with a copy of the qur'an?
[21:55] <dotblank> Ibn_Ali_al-Turki, but I don't get the incentive...
[21:56] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> it has various quran programs
[21:56] <dotblank> why not have all packages in the main repo?
[21:56] <leagris> Woups, I belived Ubuntu is agnostic or at least religion neutral :/
[21:56] <dotblank> including bible apps...
[21:56] <guntbert> Ibn_Ali_al-Turki: don't advertise here please
[21:56] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> there is also a christian version
[21:56] <dotblank> KM0201, thats not reflective of the entire religion
[21:57] <Ibn_Ali_al-Turki> and even a satanic version i saw
[21:57] <KM0201> i know...
[21:57] <guntbert> !ot | Ibn_Ali_al-Turki
[21:57] <KM0201> woops
[21:58] <Infrid64> hi!
[21:58] <dotblank> Infrid64, Hi!
[21:59] <SimplySeth> Thanks to all who helped ... Peace
[21:59] <SimplySeth> *out*
[22:00] <Infrid64> i'm going to installa xubuntu 10.10 but there is flexnet that obstruct grub installation
[22:00] <Infrid64> any ideas?
[22:00] <Infrid64> i have already removed flexnet from my windows installation
[22:00]  * PeterFabinski is away: I'm busy
[22:00] <dotblank> Infrid64, flexnet?
[22:00]  * PeterFabinski is back (gone 00:00:03)
[22:00] <Infrid64> yes
[22:00]  * PeterFabinski is away: I'm busy
[22:00]  * PeterFabinski is back (gone 00:00:02)
[22:01] <itaylor57> !away | PeterFabinski
[22:01] <ZykoticK9> !away > PeterFabinski
[22:01] <Infrid64> here is the grub warning http://tinypaste.com/494687
[22:01] <dotblank> Infrid64, well it should still work
[22:02] <murk00> I have a fresh install of Meerkat , but I keep getting a firefox error when goign to a webpage now and than Server not found                                                                      Firefox can't find the server
[22:02] <dotblank> Infrid64, Not much grub can do about it really... besides avoiding it
[22:02] <DasEi> !fstab > cg_cnu
[22:02] <Infrid64> understand, this is mean that i can't install linux on my computer? :\
[22:03] <dotblank> Infrid64, no it means that grub is working around a drm device
[22:03] <Infrid64> there is a way for erase that data?
[22:03] <murk00> Anyone have any idea what the problem could be with firefox saying Server not found Firefox can't find the server
[22:03] <Infrid64> ok
[22:03] <dotblank> Infrid64, clear that sector of the disk or remove the DRM
[22:03] <Infrid64> but when i rebbot a get a grub rescue prmpt
[22:04] <Infrid64> thanks, how can i clear that sector?
[22:04] <dotblank> Infrid64, hmm according to your output it was sector 33 on the mbr
[22:04] <dotblank> you could install grub on a partition and use the partition boot flag
[22:05] <emorris> Hi, I've got an encrypted home directory. I want to back it up with rsync. Can I/should I ignore the /home/.ecryptfs directory, and just backup user directories, or is there a better way?
[22:06] <DasEi> emorris: you can backup with rsync while it's open
[22:06] <EngrChris> I have an odd issue with 10.10 cd booting.
[22:07] <DasEi> emorris: else if it's a partition (ecryptfs) can use dd to leave it crypted
[22:07] <dotblank> EngrChris, do you have any more information...?
[22:07] <EngrChris> I checked the disk with md5 and a laptop, the cd works.
[22:07] <Infrid64> according to my partittion table, i can install grub on sda5 e flag it to boot? http://tinypaste.com/8b272
[22:08] <EngrChris> But on some hardware the bios skips the cd to hard drive.
[22:08] <Infrid64> in this way i can avoid the flexnet thing?
[22:08] <dotblank> Infrid64, possible..
[22:08] <dotblank> possibly.. I think you can... yes
[22:08] <EngrChris> It’s not a boot list problem.
[22:08] <Infrid64> the other way is to erase that sector and try to reinstall grub
[22:08] <Infrid64> mmm
[22:08] <murk00> Can anyone help me out with this firefox problem?
[22:08] <ps1on1ks> hi
[22:08] <ps1on1ks> everybody
[22:09] <emorris> DasEi, atm, rsync is running on the whole /home directory and running through masses of /home/.ecryptfs/username/.Private files. Could I just ignore these?
[22:09] <needhelp1> whats the problem murk00
[22:09] <ps1on1ks> my first time here
[22:09] <dotblank> EngrChris, so sometimes the cd doesn't boot on some hardware?
[22:10] <emorris> DasEi, I'll be backing up whilst logged in, and am not too bothered about the backup being encrypted
[22:10] <murk00> sometimes when I goto a website it says Server not found Firefox can't find the server
[22:10] <dotblank> !ask | mu
[22:10] <murk00> It will also say that when I do a search on google sometimes
[22:10] <dotblank> murk00, ^
[22:10] <DasEi> emorris: yes
[22:10] <ps1on1ks> hemmm
[22:10] <needhelp1> murk00, that usually means your Internet connect is not working.
[22:10] <dotblank> murk00, are you on wireless?
[22:10] <EngrChris> Yes. On some hardware it doesn't work at all.
[22:10] <DasEi> emorris: or backup into a truecrypt folder
[22:10] <murk00> nah its not that
[22:10] <dotblank> EngrChris, you may need to change the boot order
[22:11] <EngrChris> its not the boot order
[22:11] <dotblank> EngrChris, you sure?
[22:11] <EngrChris> yes
[22:11] <dotblank> EngrChris, try using a windows disk instead
[22:11] <dotblank> if that boots then let me know
[22:12] <dotblank> Some bios' are restricted...
[22:12] <emorris> DasEi, cool, thanks
[22:12] <EngrChris> I have tried 10.10 netbook, but 10.10 desktop doesn’t work
[22:12] <dotblank> also if the cdrom hardware is too slow and the bios doesn't wait for the cd
[22:13] <dotblank> EngrChris, Still sounds like a bios issue
[22:13] <dotblank> not an ubuntu issue.. Was the netbook image on a flash drive
[22:13] <dotblank> do you have multiple cd rom drives
[22:14] <dotblank> !boot
[22:14] <EngrChris> netbook is on a cd
[22:14] <dotblank> EngrChris, how did you burn the disc?
[22:14] <EngrChris> I used cdburnerxp
[22:15] <juscelino> #ubuntu-br
[22:15] <EngrChris> for both netbook and desktop cds
[22:15] <dotblank> EngrChris, When you place the ubuntu-desktop cd in does it show the version file?
[22:15] <dotblank> EngrChris, or does it show the iso file on the cd?
[22:15] <Maahes> !find libept.so.1
[22:16] <EngrChris> I burned the iso the correct way.
[22:17] <dotblank> EngrChris, well it is either an issue with your bios.. the disc burning or a physical issue with the cd/cddrive
[22:17] <EngrChris> So it can't be isolinux?
[22:18] <dotblank> If the netbook one works.. then no..
[22:18] <dotblank> they use basically the same thing
[22:18] <EngrChris> Past ubuntu desktop versions worked
[22:19] <Maahes> !find libxapian.so.15
[22:19] <dotblank> EngrChris, did you manipulate the isolinux file or the iso at all?
[22:19] <EngrChris> nope
[22:19] <Maahes> EngrChris: you can install netbook version. Install the meta-package "ubuntu-desktop" remove "ubuntu-netbook"
[22:19] <Infrid64> bye bye
[22:19] <Infrid64> thanks
[22:20] <Infrid64> thanks dotblank
[22:20] <Maahes> EngrChris: did you do an md5 sum check on the desktop image btw?
[22:20] <EngrChris> yes
[22:20] <Maahes> what fails on trying to use the ubuntu-desktop
[22:21] <dotblank> this isn't some arm machine is it?
[22:21] <EngrChris> x86
[22:21] <vitual> hola
[22:21] <aldermikov> is K-On! any good
[22:21] <Failican> hola
[22:22] <secretary_linux> hey all, I'm setting up a shared directory for Samba & SSHFS. I have group owned recursively, and the group is set to the primary group for the relevant users. however, I think maybe I need to set a umask or something, because my SSHFS user cannot seem to write anywhere in the directory despite recursive 775 permissions and group ownership. is the umask set on the client end?
[22:22] <vitual> alguien por ahi
[22:23] <dotblank> secretary_linux, are you able to scp files into the directory
[22:23] <jon_athon> F'in a... is there any way to undo an "rm *"
[22:23] <vitual> holaç
[22:24] <jon_athon> "rm -r *"
[22:24] <vitual> hola
[22:24] <Tm_T> jon_athon: shortly said: no
[22:24] <myth20> hello
[22:24] <dotblank> jon_athon, um... not really unless you want to get into ext2/3/4 hacking
[22:24] <vitual> alguien sabe un servidor de irc ??
[22:24] <myth20> is it easy to install ubuntu on my 5 year old laptop
[22:24] <jon_athon> FML
[22:24] <vitual> en español
[22:24] <thiebaude> !es
[22:24] <jon_athon> FML!
[22:24] <shcherbak> jon_athon: photorec, scalpel, etc (data recovery)
[22:24] <myth20> only have 512mbv
[22:24] <tonyyarusso> I have a dual-band 802.11n wireless card in my laptop, but currently it's only showing 2.4GHz access points.  What do I need to do to enable the 5GHz band?
[22:24] <Tm_T> jon_athon: also watch your language
[22:25] <vitual> ok gracias
[22:25] <jon_athon> Tm_T, Is it supposed to do something?
[22:25] <dotblank> tonyyarusso, thats a good question.. I thought it would automatically work with both
[22:26] <dotblank> tonyyarusso, are you sure your n access point isn't in mixed mode and is on the 5ghz band?
[22:26] <myth20> hi guys
[22:26] <myth20> i need help
[22:26] <jon_athon> I'm probably gonna write over this when I install it too... :(
[22:26] <tonyyarusso> dotblank: It is in mixed mode on both bands.
[22:26] <needhelp1> when 11.04 is released, will there be an option to go back to the default gnome or will it be only unity?
[22:26] <secretary_linux> dotblank: yes. I scped a file in as my sshfs user, but then when I go to delete it through sshfs, I get a permission denied
[22:27] <secretary_linux> dotblank: I have set my umask in /etc/profile to 0007
[22:27] <dotblank> secretary_linux, are you able to place the file as root on the sshfs mountpoint
[22:27] <wolfric> Can someone help me clarify why airdrop-ng doesn't seem to be included in the repositories for ubuntu?
[22:28] <aeon-ltd> needhelp1: there will be, if not just install regular gnome anyway
[22:28] <dotblank> wolfric, I thought it was... one sec
[22:28] <myth20> id like to install ubutn on my laptop 5 years old
[22:28] <shcherbak> wolfric: what is airdrop-ng? is it part of aircrack-ng?
[22:28] <wolfric> yes
[22:28] <aeon-ltd> myth20: and the problem is?
[22:28] <myth20> is it pretty hard?
[22:29] <wolfric> shcherbak: it's for deauth by a ruleset
[22:29] <dotblank> wolfric, yea the package is called aircrack-ng
[22:29] <myth20> but also id like to keep windows xp alongside
[22:29] <shcherbak> wolfric: install aircrack and see what tools are provided
[22:29] <dotblank> wolfric, it includes that program methinks
[22:29] <aeon-ltd> !dualboot | myth20
[22:29] <myth20> it only have 512mb 80gb
[22:29] <wolfric> dotblank: yes however airdrop doesn't seem to be included
[22:29] <dotblank> wolfric, you may need to compile or enable a ppa
[22:30] <tonyyarusso> dotblank: Oh, hey,  It does see the 5Ghz network if it has a different SSID.  I wonder how to make it "prefer" that when they're the same.
[22:30] <shcherbak> wolfric: aireplay is used to seauth
[22:30] <secretary_linux> dotblank: weirdly enough I can't, I get an error saying set user/group failed
[22:30] <BernardV> Sorry had to share this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAG39jKi0lI (brilliant) ;)
[22:30] <EngrChris> huh
[22:30] <wolfric> dotblank: that's my point though why isn't airdrop-ng available with the rest of the tools in aircrack. I could download and compile it by source but i'd rather use package manager so i don't have to worry about updates
[22:30] <Maahes> EngrChris: what fails when you try to use the desktop cd?
[22:30] <EngrChris> On another laptop, both the desktop and netbook cd's don't boot
[22:30] <dotblank> secretary_linux, that is odd also your mask seems too long 0007 doesn't seem right.. try using 777
[22:31] <wolfric> and aireplay can do that as well you're right however airdrop is targeted specifically for this kind of attach
[22:31] <dotblank> wolfric, no idea.. perhaps its a new program and the package version is outdated
[22:31] <guntbert> dotblank: please don't recommend 777
[22:31] <shcherbak> wolfric: http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/index.php?topic=7716.0
[22:31] <EngrChris> even when I select cd boot option
[22:31] <Maahes> EngrChris: what does "don't boot" mean
[22:31] <dotblank> guntbert, ok :)
[22:31] <Maahes> oh okay
[22:31] <dotblank> guntbert, but his existing one was 0007?
[22:31] <jon_athon> how do I figure out which device is mounted as which dir?
[22:32] <liminal> when I setup a busid for my graphicard within devices of xorg.conf i loose my  mouse
[22:32] <wolfric> shcherbak: that's a work around, i'm wondering why it isn't in the repositories
[22:32] <liminal> anyone have any idea why?
[22:32] <FlozuzMozuz> secretary_linux 700 will give you the rights over the file and no one else
[22:32] <Maahes> EngrChris: have you tried an earlier version disk, recently, to confirm its not an issue with your hardware?
[22:32] <blackdeagle> liminal: type mount in a terminal
[22:32] <FlozuzMozuz> 777 gives all access to read and write
[22:32] <blackdeagle> sorry, wasn't to you, liminal
[22:32] <shcherbak> wolfric: no idea, just know that need to review ng suite
[22:32] <EngrChris> yes. I tried older versions
[22:32] <EngrChris> they work
[22:32] <EngrChris> but not 10.10
[22:32] <blackdeagle> jon_athon: type "mount" in a terminal
[22:33] <guntbert> dotblank: I didn't follow, just this: a word of caution is in place when talking about permissive permissions :-)
[22:33] <jon_athon> o yea, thanks
[22:33] <wolfric> shcherbak: is there anywhere i can submit this for review?
[22:33] <wolfric> shcherbak: or more formally point it out
[22:33] <blackdeagle> np
[22:33] <Maahes> EngrChris: Does it just skip the boot process for the disk altogether?
[22:33] <dotblank> wolfric, you could try to find the package maintainer or submit a bug
[22:34] <shcherbak> wolfric: soon or later it will be included. have you checked versions?
[22:34] <wolfric> yes they're the updated version as appear on the website
[22:34] <EngrChris> It reads the disk, but yes, it skips
[22:34] <wolfric> 1.1
[22:34] <dotblank> EngrChris, have you tried burning a new disk perhaps that one is damaged?
[22:34] <jon_athon> anyone familiar with ext3grep?
[22:35] <EngrChris> The disk is fine.
[22:35] <EngrChris> I tested both disks on another laptop and they will boot
[22:35] <dotblank> EngrChris, well i would burn another for kicks
[22:35] <Maahes> ^
[22:35] <dotblank> some cd players are pickier then others
[22:36] <liminal> can xorg.conf effect my mouse?
[22:36] <dotblank> liminal, yes
[22:36] <guntbert> !md5 | EngrChris you obviously checked?
[22:36] <jon_athon> !ext3grep
[22:36] <crabgrass> hi all. anyone know of a tool to offset ~1200 jpegs by 1680 pixels in the x-axis? i tried imagemagick but couldn't get it to work

[22:37] <guntbert> !askthebot | jon_athon
[22:37] <DasEi> jon_athon: what are you looking for ?
[22:37] <liminal> dotblank how? when I set the busid of my graphiccard in devices i loose my mouse
[22:38] <dotblank> liminal, well x controls the mouse... are you using th nvidia driver?
[22:38] <dotblank> liminal, I found some gpus to be buggy with the busids
[22:39] <draven_sol> why is the kismet package over 2 years old?
[22:39] <liminal> no a ati card
[22:39] <liminal> with dualheads
[22:39] <ZykoticK9> liminal, did you have an xorg.conf previously (with a working mouse)?
[22:39] <dotblank> draven_sol, either there isn't anywork on kismet or the package needs a new maintainer
[22:40] <Maahes> ^
[22:40] <liminal> yes.. and the mouse works
[22:40] <liminal> but I have dual screens and im trying to assign the screens to each device
[22:40] <draven_sol> dotblank, there's been a lot of new work on kismet i guess that means a new maintainer is needed
[22:40] <tylergillies> ubuntu randomly does a complete freeze (locks keyboard and all), i have an acer 5740 with an intel GMA graphics card. anyone have any ideas?
[22:40] <dotblank> draven_sol, perhaps they need a volunteer :)
[22:41] <itaylor57> tylergillies: are you using compiz?
[22:41] <draven_sol> dotblank, i'll look into the requirements since with a two year old package it has no driver support for anything recent
[22:42] <tylergillies> itaylor57: how do i tell? im using gnome with advanced graphics set to none, does that disable compiz?
[22:42] <dotblank> draven_sol, also check to see if there are any PPAs with a recent build as well
[22:42] <itaylor57> tylergillies: yes it does
[22:42] <dotblank> then file a bug
[22:42] <tylergillies> itaylor57: then its not compiz
[22:42] <draven_sol> dotblank, where do i find info about becoming a maintainer of a package?
[22:43] <dotblank> draven_sol, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewDevelopersAndMaintainers
[22:44] <itaylor57> tylergillies: what do you do to recover when it freezes?
[22:44] <dotblank> draven_sol, also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete
[22:44] <draven_sol> dotblank, thanks for the information i'm check the requirements and related info
[22:44] <tomlikestorock_> what's the best way to install python 2.7 in 10.04?
[22:45] <thetrav> I have booted off a ubuntu netbook usb key on my friends netbook.  I want to mount the old hdd so I can retreive their data before installing ubuntu on it
[22:45] <tylergillies> itaylor57: turn power off/turn back on
[22:46] <thetrav> folder view seems limited to home folder.  Is there a gui way of mounting drives? or do I need a console command?
[22:46] <tylergillies> itaylor57: i tried alt+sysrq REISUB but it doesn't do anything
[22:46] <dotblank> thetrav, the drive should be visible for you to mount.. if not then more advanced digging and troubleshooting may be needed
[22:46] <sacarlson> tomlikestorock_: maybe with ppa I see python2.6 in synaptic here with 10.04
[22:47] <tomlikestorock_> sacarlson: ah, good idea, thanks
[22:47] <tomlikestorock_> sacarlson: any place where I might look to find the right ppa?
[22:47] <dotblank> !ppa
[22:47] <thetrav> ok, I found I could mount the drive, but now I'm not sure how to navigate to it with the crazy folder viewer
[22:47] <itaylor57> tylergillies: what version of unbuntu
[22:48] <tylergillies> itaylor57: 10.10
[22:48] <FlozuzMozuz> are there any CLI chat programs I could use to bring in Facebook chat or Gmail chat?
[22:48] <dotblank> thetrav, crazy? maybe your view options are messed up..
[22:48] <tomlikestorock_> ha, thanks

[22:49] <sardonyx> anyone here use vsftpd?  i've got it so it chroot's user's profiles so they can't traverse outside their home directories, but now since I've done that they can't even see their own home directories!
[22:49] <dotblank> FlozuzMozuz, you could use irc on the commandline then have a use a irc-to-jabber bridge
[22:49] <thetrav> dotblank, it shows me favourite folders in the home folder, but I can't see anywhere to navigate out of ~
[22:49] <dotblank> brb guys got to grab some grub
[22:50] <FlozuzMozuz> cool thx, i will look into it. would jabber or bitlbee work with irssi?
[22:50] <itaylor57> tylergillies: what graphics controller, do a lspci to list it
[22:50] <deww> FlozuzMozuz: bitlbee works with any irc client

[22:52] <Slartibart> Guys, I need some advice here. I got a packard bell easynote b3529 that I was planning to give to the kids. Win xp is installed on it right now, I was planning to install ubuntu 10.10 instead, but the installation program has been loading(?) now for like 20 minutes. Should it be that way?
[22:53] <itaylor57> tylergillies: is it goinging into hybernation and not recovering?
[22:53] <tylergillies> itaylor57: its not hybernation, the screen just freezes and keyboard is unresponsive
[22:53] <Slartibart> Anyone knows what "gzip: stdin: input/output error" means?
[22:54] <itaylor57> tylergillies: maybe someone else will have an idea, I have no clue what is happening
[22:54] <tylergillies> itaylor57: ok thanks anyway
[22:54] <Maahes> yes, it means any number of things caused gzip to not be able to read or write.

[22:54] <Ja23> Ihello crimsun
[22:55] <Ja23> crimsun: issue is that the volume is very low, i've turned up the volume everywhere but still its very very low
[22:55] <Maahes> anything from the expected file not being there, to not having permissions on the output destination, to getting hanged and not being able to complete, etc.
[22:55] <canthus13> itaylor57: If that doesn't work, try the alternate install CD.

[23:01] <syntaxman> I'm trying to boot 10.10 inside KVM on my gentoo box.  Other live DVDs work fine, but Ubuntu isn't giving me a functional mouse.
[23:02] <syntaxman> Keyboard is fine, just the mouse is broken.  Any pointers?
[23:02] <live-evil> hmm
[23:02] <live-evil> usb or ps2 mouse
[23:03] <Maahes> syntaxman: er get into the linux console of the VM'd distro and take a look at syslog
[23:03] <syntaxman> I'm on  a ThinkPad W500.  Both the touchpad and the "eraser" are useless.
[23:03] <live-evil> sounds like the usb isn't working
[23:03] <Maahes> syntaxman: have you tried a normal mouse?
[23:04] <Maahes> not touchpad or whatever the "eraser" is
[23:04] <syntaxman> Maahes: Nope, not yet.  I'll go scrounge one up.
[23:05] <Galvatron> With some docks (like Docky), whenI add launchers, some of them disappear after reboot, like the dock couldn't remember the settings.
[23:05] <Galvatron> *when I
[23:05] <Maahes> syntaxman: that's the very first thing you should check, because if a normal mouse works, but your touchpad doesn't, there's a problem with synaptics
[23:05] <ray24> My openoffice crashes very often
[23:05] <Maahes> Galvatron: what ones other than docky?
[23:06] <Galvatron> AWN, as I remember
[23:06] <syntaxman> Maahes: The "eraser" is the trackpoint mouse, BTW.  It usually works as a "normal" mouse, w/o special attention.
[23:06] <syntaxman> I'll add a USB mouse, though, and see if anything changes.
[23:06] <Galvatron> The same goes for DockbarX and Talika, as I pin down apps
[23:06] <magicianlord> do usb mice work in bios?
[23:07] <Maahes> Galvatron: I'd suggest looking at the config files in your home directory
[23:07] <Galvatron> Today AWN lost all the launchers after reboot
[23:07] <Maahes> but it might be a gconf problem too
[23:07] <sacarlson> tomlikestorock_: no wonder I couldn't find it,  there is a python 3.0 that is in release in 10.04
[23:07] <Maahes> magicianlord: depends on your bios
[23:07] <tomlikestorock_> yeah, but no 2.7 :(
[23:07] <Slartibart> Maahes: Sorry for late answer. 1Gb RAM, AMD sempron 3000+ 1.8GHz, integrated graphics via/s3g unichrome pro.
[23:07] <Galvatron> Maahes: Which files exactly?
[23:07] <sacarlson> tomlikestorock_: opps and that python 3.1
[23:08] <KM0201> Slartibart: those unichrome never seem to work right.
[23:08] <Maahes> Slartibart: there's no reason your install should be taking so long, your hung up. Try running and doing the install in safe mode, and if that gets hung, use the alternate-install cd
[23:08] <sacarlson> tomlikestorock_: doesn't 3.1 work in place of 2.7?
[23:08] <Slartibart> KM0201: Really :(? No way past it?
[23:08] <tomlikestorock_> sacarlson: I don't want to go through the 2 to 3 changes yet
[23:09] <KM0201> Slartibart: there's a lot of complaints in this channel regarding that chipset if you stay here overtime.
[23:09] <sacarlson> tomlikestorock_: try it in virtualbox if it works install it in your main system
[23:09] <Slartibart> Maahes: Thanks, I tested the cd and it seems it was bad. So I'll make another one now. No error messages whatsoever about it though :-/
[23:09] <Maahes> Galvatron: I don't know particularly, I don't have it installed. Look in ~/.config/docky or ~.docky
[23:09] <KM0201> Slartibart: as for whether there are fixes for it or not, i really don't know, but i don't see a whole lot good about it.
[23:09] <insano> How can I install windows drivers on linux?
[23:10] <Maahes> Slartibart: yeah, it can't necessarily report errors if it gets hung
[23:10] <ZykoticK9> insano, typically - you can't
[23:10] <Slartibart> KM0201: Ok, I guess I got the point :-/. Thanks.
[23:10] <Galvatron> Maahes: There's no config folder for Docky
[23:10] <Maahes> insano: for the most part, other than with ndiswrapper, for wireless, you can't.
[23:11] <insano> Maahes, ndiswrapper would work for a scanner driver?
[23:12] <ZykoticK9> insano, ndiswrapper is for wireless
[23:12] <magicianlord> if you buy a cannon scanner all in one for $30, it will work in ubuntu
[23:12] <Maahes> Galv from the command line: find -name 'docky'
[23:12] <Maahes> insano: no
[23:12] <Maahes> insano: you should check to see if cups has a driver
[23:13] <Failican> Hey, how do I get in to the remote desktop menu?
[23:13] <insano> Maahes, it is a good idea
[23:14] <sacarlson> magicianlord: wow all in one so it's a printer too?  what resolution would that be in scan and print if you don't mind?
[23:14] <ao> how do u make the font bigger in xchat?
[23:14] <magicianlord> sacarlson: it's standard for a regular scanner, like 300 dpi but can go up to 1200, i think
[23:14] <ZykoticK9> ao, settings / preferences - it should be on the fist screen
[23:15] <magicianlord> there is also a smaller nicer hp all in one for about $30 at target, but i dont have that one to try to see if it works easily with simplescan, the way the cannon one does
[23:15] <ao> thanks
[23:15] <insano> Maahes, I google it, but it didnt return any compatibility with cups
[23:15] <Guest19844> hello
[23:15] <itaylor57> magicianlord: i use hp all in one and it is easy
[23:15] <Guest19844> Crimsun: this is Ja23 from earlier
[23:15] <ZykoticK9> insano, FYI cups is typically a printer subsystem, not a scanning one
[23:15] <sm> after https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed , why does aptitude install libc6/maverick-proposed say Unable to find an archive "maverick-proposed" for the package "libc6" ?

[23:16] <crimsun> Guest19844: now, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo
[23:16] <insano> ZykoticK9, does it mean that I wont get a solution for my problem?
