[14:03] <glenn> the problem is that i have a shared profile for thunderbirds that i can read in xp en in ubuntu. So far no problem. But when i have read my mails in xp and later in ubuntu tb in ubuntu is set to en-uk en not anymore in dutch why ?
[14:04] <Etherael> is installed in software center.
[14:04] <admgy22> what should I type to find out what filesystem the server is running?  Or is it definitely going to be ext3 if it's ubuntu?
[14:04] <bazhang> Etherael, it works fine in firefox in 11.04
[14:04] <Molfar> trying to install e-texteditor. help me pls to understand this: "Linux builds do not have this header available, and must explicitly include "wx/wx.h"."
[14:05] <szal> !repeat | Molfar
[14:05] <Etherael> bazhang: I just keep getting "You need to upgrade your flash player " on every piece of flash content in both chrome and firefox.
[14:05] <bazhang> Etherael, did you install gnash, swf and some of the others?
[14:05] <Etherael> nope, just the actual official package in the repo
[14:05] <Lemuel> glenn: what's wrong with your thunderbird?
[14:05] <Etherael> plugin finder service is coming up with "no suitable plugins were found"
[14:05] <shomon> hello, does anyone know a way of comparing two directories, recursively even?
[14:05] <szal> Molfar: also, I already pointed you to line 5 of the readme
[14:05] <bazhang> Etherael, how was it originally installed,and did you ever go outside package management for it
[14:06] <Etherael> bazhang: Originally was installed as part of 10.04 and was working fine.
[14:06] <Etherael> seems the upgrade to 11.04 has broken it.
[14:06] <Molfar> szal: if you mean irc channel, I have checked it, there are nobody exept me. I cant talk to myself there)
[14:07] <Etherael> bazhang: the package installed in package management is called "flashplugin-installer"
[14:07] <glenn> Lemuel, shroll up and read what i wrote
[14:08] <laar> hello, does anyone ahve a problem with GHC, as mine is panic-ing
[14:08] <D-Dalus> Blueskaj, I wanted a direct connection to the ADSL server to sniff through the net, and actually ,i can do it in windows... I just created a DSL Conection with Internet explorer and i get direct acces to all websites (without passing through the router)
[14:09] <bazhang> laar, ghc6?
[14:09] <glenn> Lemuel, did you find it
[14:09] <laar> bazhang ghc6 (6.12.1)
[14:09] <PythonSnake> Hi all
[14:10] <bazhang> PythonSnake, hi
[14:10] <fhv> hello
[14:10] <Lemuel> I'm also a jackaroo.
[14:10] <PythonSnake> :)
[14:10] <PythonSnake> bazhang: I resolved the problem
[14:13] <blargg> Anyone familiar with fonts-conf?
[14:15] <admgy22> can you run foremost on the same drive you're recovering from?
[14:16] <mads-> I'm trying to run a command copying the stuff from one folder to another, but it tells me: cp: cannot stat `/home/[shortened]/*': No such file or directory
[14:17] <mads-> It is because it does not recognize the '*' when I execute the command from within java?
[14:17] <Dbl_Tap> mads: probably I'd use the ascii code for *
[14:18] <PythonSnake> Where can I find programs like in unity ? I want to find gpointing
[14:18] <mads-> Dbl_Tap, how so?
[14:18] <glenn>  Why is my tunderbird in ubuntu in englisch when i have read my mail in xp tb he was befor in dutch tb ubuntu. I shared that profile between xp and ubuntu
[14:18] <bazhang> gpointing-device-settings PythonSnake
[14:19] <Dbl_Tap> mads: i'd google it; should give you all the info you need.
[14:19] <mads-> Not that I don't know what an ascii code is, but how would you use it in this context?
[14:19] <PythonSnake> bazhang where to type this?
[14:19] <bazhang> PythonSnake, where to type what?
[14:19] <PythonSnake> gpointing-device
[14:20] <fede> Hi! How can I fix a broken usb key?
[14:20] <PythonSnake> like in unity search bar
[14:20] <PythonSnake> !details | fed
[14:20] <bazhang> PythonSnake, apt-cache search gpointing revealed that
[14:20] <Pici> mads-: How did you install this newer version of java? you could use sudo update-java-alternatives if you installed it via apt.
[14:21] <dyd> how can i make an advanced search for files bigger than 1gb?
[14:21] <PythonSnake> bazhang: is there an application search bar for gnome ?
[14:22] <hulowa> hi
[14:22] <lietu> so.. any good guides on samba tuning? I just installed ubuntu 11.04 server, set up samba, and get 1.1MB/s transfer speeds while iostat says my disks are practically idling (and they're using udma)
[14:22] <sabgenton> anybody use UDF partitions?
[14:23] <glenn>  Why is my tunderbird in ubuntu in englisch when i have read my mail in xp tb he was befor in dutch tb ubuntu. I shared that profile between xp and ubuntu
[14:23] <AdvoWork> if i need to upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04, whats the best method of backing up my server?
[14:23] <sabgenton> are they an ok replacement for ext3
[14:23] <BluesKaj> D-Dalus, direct connection to the ADSL server ? ...must be beyond my scope
[14:23] <sabgenton> or dogey as
[14:23] <kla> sabgenton, sure to back my stuff up on optical media
[14:24] <Pici> dyd: find /path/ -size +1G
[14:24] <dyd> Pici: thank you
[14:24] <kla> sabgenton, they normally aren't
[14:24] <kla> sabgenton, ext4 is
[14:24] <sabgenton> kla: no as in on HD
[14:25] <sabgenton> ext4 is good by I want to use UDF
[14:25] <sabgenton> if it's reliable
[14:25] <sabgenton> enough
[14:25] <mads-> Dbl_Tap, could you tell me how to insert an ascii character to the command line? My google searches seems to find nothing
[14:27] <stephanmg> is wine that's what used in ubuntu if i need to start a simple .exe (sadly)
[14:27] <frostschutz> mads-: the * is expanded by the shell. so if java runs cp directly without shell, that's your problem there. you either have to do the globbing in java or run a shell that does it for you
[14:27] <frostschutz> mads-: also the dir might be empty
[14:28] <mads-> the dir is not empty. Can't I execute the command from java and still get the shell to expand the *?
[14:28] <hulowa> any one can shed light on patch a file like this?https://launchpadlibrarian.net/71387234/01elantech_2.6.38.patch
[14:29] <ldldlll> hi
[14:29] <hulowa> hi
[14:29] <frostschutz> mads-: you can execute a shell from java which in turn then executes a cp command. ask in a java channel for the best method
[14:29] <D-Dalus> Blueskaj, it's simpler than you think. But my english is not good enough to explain exactly what i want to do =(  . Anyway i appreciate your help a lot.
[14:29] <hulowa> frostschutz: hi, dude.
[14:30] <anev> should a cd mount itself?
[14:30] <ldldlll> i had installed unity but it got corrupted and am using classic version from boot. when i lookup 'about' it says i am using gnome 2.32.1
[14:30] <mads-> frostschutz, thanks

[14:35] <ldldlll> ok thanks
[14:35] <Atritas> rengo: this site immediately gets blocked by the company virus scanner here as a Virs/Trojan. So better stick to official sources for downloading.

[14:40] <ldldlll> right thanks. is it ok for python to be connected
[14:40] <jpds> ldldlll: Depends on what it is, but usually, yes.

[14:44] <BarryB> funny but embarrassing query... anyone know of any available live reporistories for 9.04 jaunty?? Updatign to to latest is not an option...thanks
[14:44] <glenn> jpds, i did what you say
[14:44] <BarryB> repositories**
[14:44] <chrubble> I have a problem with DVD/CD burning in Ubuntu 11.04. Previously it  worked, but I installed Kubuntu 11.04 because of other issues - and  although the burning software (DVD Styler, Brasero and K3B tried) goes  through the motions (up to 'Success') it is not writing correctly and  the discs are destroyed - Then disc read error occur if I insert a  previously burned disc. Disc read OK after re-boot. I tried Linux Mint,  PCLi
[14:44] <jpds> BarryB: No, Jaunty's not supported anymore, you have to upgrade.
[14:44] <szal> !9.04 | BarryB
[14:44] <glenn> jpds, the installer say that i have the last version
[14:44] <PythonSnake> where is search bar on gnome 2 ?
[14:45] <BarryB> i know its decomised
[14:45] <BarryB> just wondering if any live reps out there
[14:45] <Pici> BarryB: old-releases.ubuntu.com is available, but you will not get any udpates from there.
[14:45] <jpds> glenn: Cool, do you have the other Dutch translations installed? You can install them with System → Admin → Language Support ?
[14:45] <pRoV7x>  does anyone know what this folder for, Thumbnails
[14:45] <BarryB> ok...ill manyually install .deb ...thanks
[14:47] <glenn> jpds in now that. That is not the problem the problem is when i use tb in xp with my share profile and go back to tb ubuntu it's not in dutch any more
[14:48] <jpds> glenn: Yes, I know.
[14:48] <jpds> glenn: You probably have to log into a Dutch Ubuntu session to have Thunderbird in Dutch.
[14:48] <jpds> glenn: I do that with the languages I have installed.
[14:48] <glenn> jpds ubuntu is dutch
[14:49] <TaZeR> sup guys
[14:49] <Loreley> Hello, I installed my system from a remastersys backup and now I have a ubiquity-gtkui.desktop file on my desktop. What is this thing? Can I delete it?
[14:49] <pRoV7x>  does anyone know what this folder is for, Thumbnails?
[14:49] <TaZeR> is it cool if use xubuntu instead of ubuntu or is that different?
[14:49] <TaZeR> i like the interface better
[14:49] <TaZeR> will i be like judged or something?
[14:49] <szal> TaZeR: Ubuntu = Gnome, Xubuntu = XFce (for the eye; under the hood it's the same thing)
[14:50] <TaZeR> so no bad will twords me?
[14:50] <PythonSnake> when will ubuntu support gnome 3?
[14:50] <Pici> PythonSnake: 11.10
[14:50] <TaZeR> i like the xfce unity thing not classic xfce
[14:50] <TaZeR> with the cool black menu and dock no botton panel
[14:50] <TaZeR> and how did they make the fonts look as good as on windows 7?
[14:50] <jpds> TaZeR: That's http://unity.ubuntu.com/ , not XFCE.
[14:51] <TaZeR> i cant do that on any other of my distros
[14:51] <glenn> jpds, how can i remove tb by command line
[14:51] <glenn> i think i have to versions of tb on pc
[14:51] <jpds> glenn: sudo apt-get remove thunderbird
[14:51] <TaZeR> its like xfce though with a touch of unity
[14:51] <TaZeR> not unity like in ubuntu where ur stuff is on the side
[14:51] <TaZeR> has regular menus and all
[14:52] <TaZeR> its still fast for slow systems
[14:52] <Pici> !enter
[14:52] <TaZeR> i switched from debian recently to try it out
[14:52] <glenn> jps i removed tb by the software center
[14:52] <TaZeR> im on a netbook so im looking for speed
[14:53] <TaZeR> and i hate those netbook distros that make it like a smart phone lol
[14:53] <glenn> and i try also to remove it by the command line but he told me that tb is not installed
[14:53] <glenn> but in the application menu i see still tb

[14:56] <jpds> TaZeR: Google Earth?
[14:56] <RenaKunisaki> I don't think Google uses Flash?
[14:56] <TaZeR> that can search down addresses?
[14:56] <TaZeR> i think i tried google earth in the past
[14:57] <TaZeR> but it was too slow on my machine it was some 3d kinda thing
[14:57] <TaZeR> u guys are familiar with streets & trips how it looks and behaves?
[14:57] <chrubble> Anyone help with DVD & CD burning issue in Ubuntu 11.04?
[14:57] <dr_Willis> google maps.
[14:57] <szal> chrubble: define 'issue'
[14:58] <dr_Willis> is similer TaZeR
[14:58] <whyameye> computer boots to blank screen even in recovery mode. Ubuntu lucid.
[14:58] <TaZeR> google maps is online though and its slow
[14:58] <rypervenche> TaZeR: Use Google Maps. If you want to have it in an interactive program, use Google Earth.
[14:58] <chrubble> Read ok. But write goes through motions. Says 'success' but then discs unusable.
[14:58] <sf_> hi all
[14:59] <dr_Willis> TaZeR:  ive seen no offline apps similer for linux. getting rare for windows also
[14:59] <sf_> how can i set, ubuntu to install a python package in different python versions (2.6 and 2.7) ? , its only installing in one
[14:59] <dr_Willis> i got googlemaps on my cellphone  :-D
[14:59] <evenflow> hello, anyway to unlock the screen using xscreensaver-command?
[14:59] <sf_> install in both at same time
[14:59] <whyameye> is there a way to force ubuntu not to use any video driver besides VESA or something? My computer is booting to a blank screen even in recovery mode. So it's going to a blank screen before it even runs X. What to do?
[15:00] <sipior> sf_: using the package manager, or easy_install/pip?
[15:00] <glenn> how can i install thunderbird to the last version 3.1.11  in dutch and not to 3.1.10
[15:00] <sf_> sipior, apt-get install
[15:01] <sipior> sf_: the python packages are coded with the python interpreter version.
[15:01] <alex86> hey, i can`t manage to install PHP on my machine. apt-get update doesn`t help. here: http://pastebin.com/wA6D0d5v
[15:01] <sipior> sf_: "sometimes"
[15:01] <dr_Willis> whyameye:  ive seen some kernel boot option for that. at askubuntu.com  but lost the url.
[15:02] <Pici> glenn: 3.1.11 doesn't exist in any of the official Ubuntu repositories for any release.  You'd have to find a PPA or find an installer from Mozilla.
[15:02] <dr_Willis> whyameye:  the nomodeset option can help also
[15:02] <dr_Willis> !nomodeset
[15:02] <pRoV7x>  does anyone know what this folder is for, Thumbnails?
[15:02] <rhin01> thumbnails?
[15:02] <Cycovince> Hey ppl
[15:02] <Cycovince> is anyone using Miro ?
[15:03] <Pici> pRoV7x: I'd guess it was for thumbnails.
[15:03] <sf_> sipior, so its not possible to install by default in more than one python version, right?
[15:03] <jimmy51_> i've just brought up an ubuntu server to be my NFS server for netbooting.  I'd also like to share my NFS root with Samba.  Is this a bad idea for any reason?
[15:03] <DMKitsch>  Hi, at the moment a user called user 'dave' has no permission to write to the folder /Var/WWW I wish to give him this so he can make a website but i do not know how to, can anybody help?
[15:03] <glenn> how can i install thunderbird dutch 3.1.11 and not 3.1.10
[15:03] <DMKitsch> i am logged in as root
[15:03] <sipior> sf_: not by default, but most packages are available via setuptools. simply run the installer with the desired python interpreter.
[15:03] <pRoV7x>  Pici: what are those, do you know?
[15:04] <glenn> Pici, where can i find the ppa
[15:04] <dr_Willis> DMKitsch:  i think the proper way to allow that is to use groups. but ive not done thst stuff in years
[15:04] <Pici> !ppa | glenn
[15:04] <DMKitsch> dr_willis ok, is there any documentation on it?
[15:04] <Pici> pRoV7x: Thumbnails are tiny images that give you a preview of what is contained in a file. GNOME Nautilus uses them for pictures.
[15:05] <sf_> sipior, it means i cannot use the package manager ?
[15:05] <dr_Willis> DMKitsch:  its such a faq  probly dozens of guides. check askubuntu.com and the forums
[15:05] <loculinux> hola
[15:05] <Joupi> DMKitsch: You create a new group in which you add the users you want to have write permissions and then allocate the WWW (or whatever folder) new group's name so people in this group will be able to write providing the chmod correspond to for the group users
[15:05] <sipior> sf_: if the package is not available for your desired version, no.
[15:05] <iridium> !es | loculinux
[15:05] <pRoV7x>  Pici: thank you.
[15:06] <sipior> sf_: maintaining multiple python interpreters is generally a bad idea anyway. are you migrating from 2.7 to 3 or something?
[15:06] <sf_> sipior, ah thanks, ill try to install from source those packages
[15:06] <DMKitsch> Joupi, dr_Willis thank you for the help
[15:06] <sf_> sipior,  2.6 to 2.7
[15:06] <Joupi> ;-)
[15:06] <Hansimat> I am looking for an unattended Ubuntu installation. I found preseed and FAI. FAI sounds more interesting, especially preseed does not seem to support reusing of partitions. On the other hand the preseed method is easy to setup.  Does FAI work well with Ubuntu? Any experience?

[15:08] <dr_Willis> you did run update-grub?
[15:08] <rhin0> oops wrong channel
[15:08] <jc-denton> sure
[15:09] <jc-denton> wtf
[15:09] <jc-denton> why these uuids?
[15:09] <Pici> !enter | jc-denton
[15:09] <Pici> jc-denton: and mind your language please.
[15:09] <jc-denton> and why are they suddenly wrong?
[15:09] <dr_Willis> uuids shoulndet be chabgeing unless you resize or repartition
[15:10] <jc-denton> now i'm in that initramfs thing and typing mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt tells me that sdb1 is not there
[15:10]  * szal suggests fsck'ing the partition in question
[15:10] <jc-denton> fdisk: command not found
[15:10] <dr_Willis> check  sudo fdisk -l jc-denton
[15:11] <jc-denton> id: command not found
[15:11] <dr_Willis> not found.. thats weird
[15:11] <sriramoman> siva: to join another channel, type "/join #linux-india"
[15:11] <jc-denton> but i think i'm root, what's that initramfs anyways?
[15:11] <sriramoman> siva: in the chat area itself
[15:11] <dyd> guys i have to recover some deleted files from a hd with windows. what's a good software to do that?
[15:11] <jc-denton> grub/lilo used to be that simple, the uuid mess is just a disappointment
[15:11] <dyd> i'm trying with scalpel now
[15:11] <dr_Willis> grub can use uuid also
[15:12] <siva> sriramomen : done
[15:12] <dr_Willis> fstab can use uuid
[15:12] <maheshmm> folks, how to install acroread mozilla plugin in ubuntu natty? it's not in medubuntu repo and canonical partner repo
[15:12] <jc-denton> so what can I do to make my system boot again?
[15:13] <dr_Willis> jc-denton:  it could be a hd died if youcant mount it. ckeck with fdisk a d  gparted and in the bios
[15:13] <jimmy51_> anyone know of a good tutorial on setting up samba shares to use active directory permissions?
[15:13] <jona_> hoola
[15:13] <jc-denton> i highly doubt that
[15:14] <jc-denton> i can mount it
[15:14] <jc-denton> from a cd but not from that initramfs thing i land into after boot fails
[15:14] <dr_Willis> jc-denton:  you said you coukdent earlier
[15:14] <jc-denton> ?
[15:14] <szal> jc-denton: did you fsck the partition already?
[15:14] <dr_Willis> sdb1 not there you said
[15:15] <jimmy51_> i've found this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[15:15] <jc-denton> @dr_Willis yes in that initramfs thing in which u land when boot fails
[15:15] <jc-denton> whatever that is
[15:16] <david> ck dlublink
[15:16] <jc-denton> well i had to add a boot flag to the first hd which is for windows
[15:16] <jc-denton> but it seems that gparted changed something
[15:16] <jc-denton> now the uuid is not valid or so
[15:16] <dr_Willis> !uuid
[15:17] <jc-denton> what I don't understand is why simply using /dev/sdx doesn't work
[15:17] <jc-denton> yes I saw this page
[15:17] <maheshmm> folks, how to install acroread mozilla plugin in ubuntu natty? it's not in medubuntu repo and canonical partner repo
[15:18] <BarryB> would using 9.10 repository work for 9.04?
[15:18] <BarryB> theoreticallly?
[15:18] <sriramoman> maheshmm: for me, it got installed automatically when i installed acroread itself
[15:18] <dr_Willis> ive seen hard drives change sdXX numbers if i select the bios to boot from diffrent hds.
[15:19] <dr_Willis> !acrobat
[15:19] <IdleOne> BarryB: 9.04 is no longer supported and mixing repos is not a good idea anyway.
[15:19] <PythonSnake> Ubuntu FTW !!!
[15:19] <jc-denton> Could anybody answer my question?
[15:19] <dyd> how can i make an image of a secondary hd i have connected?
[15:19] <dr_Willis> adobe home page perhaps
[15:19] <dr_Willis> dyd:  use of dd command can do that
[15:20] <sriramoman> dyd: dd if=<ur hdd> of=myhd.img bs=512
[15:20] <BarryB> IdleOne: I know its not supported, thanks...how is it not a good idea?
[15:20] <dyd> thank you guys
[15:20] <tam_lin> hiya: software-center isn't starting up properly for me, and just gives a blank window. Any idea how I could get a log of what it's (not) doing?
[15:20] <dr_Willis> be carefull with dd
[15:20] <glenn_> i have installed thunderbird for ubuntuzilla no problem so far. it is thunderbird 3.1.11 and when i go than to tb xp and back than is tb ubuntu change from dutch to englisch why ?
[15:21] <sriramoman> dyd: ensure that u perform this command in a directory where u have sufficient free space. it should ideally have at least a few MB's more than the capacity of ur secondary HDD
[15:21] <dyd> i'm doing it on /media/LaCie
[15:22] <dyd> sriramonan:  dd if=/dev/sdb of=/media/LaCie/myhd.img bs=512
[15:22] <dr_Willis> dyd:  ddrescue and dd_rescue are good for failing hd imageing
[15:22] <glenn_> i have installed thunderbird for ubuntuzilla no problem so far. it is thunderbird 3.1.11 and when i go than to tb xp and back than is tb ubuntu change from dutch to englisch why ?
[15:22] <ohir> dyd: wrong. You need to use /dev/hddevice
[15:23] <ohir> dyd: lag. Yep you got it right
[15:23] <jc-denton> looserbuntu
[15:23] <jimmy51_> i'm trying to follow this:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto  but it seems like a spaghetti reference to several outdated articles.
[15:23] <dyd> ohir: good ;D
[15:23] <Jimmy_> XD
[15:23] <jimmy51_> does anyone know of an up to date active directory / samba tutorial?
[15:23] <sriramoman> dyd: ensure u have enough free space in /media/LaCie
[15:23] <sriramoman> dyd: otherwise command is perfect
[15:23] <ohir> dyd: while coping many data you may use larger block size
[15:24] <dr_Willis>  jimmy51_  thats not uncommon. you could post the q. to the askubuntu.com site
[15:24] <dyd> sriramonan: it's ok, hd = 40gb LaCie has 300 gb free
[15:24] <dyd> ohir: what block size should i use?
[15:24] <ohir> dyd: usual bs=1M or so is good.
[15:24] <dr_Willis> jimmy51_:  domeone may kbow a better.guide
[15:24] <dyd> ohir: ok i'll try with 1M
[15:25] <ohir> dyd: you may test it before copying some 50MB with bs=1M count=50. man time will tell you how to measure time of running
[15:26] <glenn_> where is the config file of thunderbird stored
[15:26] <maheshmm> sriramoman: okay. i am installing acroread. lets see
[15:26] <Jimmy_> umm google IME is not released for ubuntu
[15:26] <dyd> ohir: it copied 50mb instantly
[15:26] <dr_Willis> i slways use other pdf tools these days.
[15:27] <WLU> nvidia-settings does not correctly set the resolution for the screen. the refresh rate on one monitor is 50 while the other is 75. They are two monitors of the same make and model Any ideas. This is 11.04 ubuntu  2.6.38-8 x86_64. I installed the latest nvidia driver
[15:27] <dyd> ohir: i think 1M will be fine
[15:27] <tam_lin> Software-center isn't starting up properly for me, and just gives a blank window. Any idea how I could get a log of what it's (not) doing?
[15:28] <dyd> can i use dd also to make an image of the hd where i have installed the so i'm using?
[15:28] <dr_Willis> tam_lin: run it from a terminal
[15:28] <tam_lin> I have
[15:28] <dr_Willis> dyd:  you can but that disk is inuse.. so that can get weird
[15:29] <dr_Willis> dyd:  best to use a livecd to do that dd trivk
[15:29] <tam_lin> dr_willis: it seems to run without any text output, returning control of the cmd line to the user
[15:30] <dr_Willis> tam_lin:  i never use the center. try a update. upgrade from the cli and see if that fixs things
[15:30] <tam_lin> dr_Willis: I've tried that, several times
[15:30] <dyd> dr_Willis: livecd means to start from a cd and run the command from there?
[15:30] <tam_lin> apt-get still seems to work fine
[15:30] <tam_lin> though it doesn't seem to be able to properly remove mpd
[15:30] <dr_Willis> dyd:  yea
[15:31] <dyd> dr_Willis: ok thank you
[15:31] <theorifice1> I've got a kernel module that crashes my machine when loaded. Is there a way to view the dmesg logs post-mortem?

[15:41] <Razor11> how do i install it?
[15:41] <Razor11> its windows base..
[15:42] <Razor11> I have the cd with me
[15:42] <dr_Willis> askubuntu.com has some neat android apps
[15:42] <dr_Willis> Razor11:  run jockey-gtk
[15:42] <Razor11> in the terminal?
[15:42] <dr_Willis> where else... :)
[15:42] <Razor11> can you gave me a tutorial on this?
[15:42] <Razor11> im new to ubuntu
[15:43] <dr_Willis> !nvidia
[15:43] <hwilde> that tutorial was outdated years ago @ dr_Willis
[15:44] <Razor11> Ok i'll give it a try
[15:44] <dr_Willis> it sould also ask  to  install them on first boot
[15:44] <dr_Willis> just run jockey-gtk as root.  and see
[15:45] <Cycovince> why is jockey-gtk exclusively in ubuntu ?
[15:45] <Cycovince> I'd love to have that kind of tool on suse or fedora
[15:45] <Cycovince> installing drivers is such a pain in the neck
[15:45] <dr_Willis> they got their own ways i think

[15:48] <preetam> can anybody tell me how to recover data from my SD card in ubuntu 11.04.
[15:50] <BluesKaj> preetam, does it show in nautilus/ places ?
[15:51] <preetam> BluesKAj: the data are accidentally deleted
[15:51] <twinggy> hi
[15:52] <xtr3m3> hi
[15:52] <BluesKaj> preetam, was the card connected when the data got deleted?

[15:52] <twinggy> I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 and then now I installed windows 7; Now when I boot the machince, windows 7 booting automatically. How to solve this? Now I'm running on Ubuntu live CD
[15:53] <preetam> yes the card was connected with the laptop
[15:53] <BluesKaj> preetam, maybe it wnded up intrash, if  so then just right click and recover
[15:53] <genii-around> preetam: Probably to make an image of it first to a file with ddrescue, then mount the image, use some stuff like photorec. There are also some tools for undeleting from ext2/3/4 like e2undel  and extundelete

[16:01] <noaki> hi i've got a strange problem with my keyboard layout. i want the german one, but it always switches back to us theme after a while which is strange since i removed the us layout (uninstalled it) i also just have the german language theme installed
[16:01] <noaki> this problem often occurs when using thunderbird (where i also just have installed german locales). and thunderbird is in autostart
[16:01] <BluesKaj> raz, maybe do some research /linux reveiws on the net of various netbooks
[16:01] <Razor11> how about built in video cards on motherboards? where can i get the drivers?
[16:02] <raz> BluesKaj: been there. it's really hard to find definitive info.
[16:02] <dyd> is there a way to use foremost and recover also filenames?
[16:02] <noaki> and when i remove the us layout its comes back after a reboot tt
[16:03] <Razor11> excuse me, how about built in video cards on motherboards? where can i get the drivers?
[16:03] <BluesKaj> raz, well I doubt you'll find definitive info here , ppl come here with problems,  not positive opnions about computers :)
[16:03] <raz> BluesKaj: well, i was hoping for something like "hey yes, i'm typing this from asung eeepc 4711 and it's perfect" ;)
[16:04] <Razor11> T_T
[16:07] <Razor11> how do i know the model of the video cards if it is built in with the motherboards???
[16:07] <veek> Razor11: dmesg
[16:07] <Razor11> ok thanks
[16:08] <genii-around> Razor11: Also sudo lshw -C video      and lspci -mm  then look up the vendor:device code
[16:09] <Razor11> thanks, i'll give it a try..

[16:16] <preetam> how to make an image of all sectors of SD memory card in ubuntu 11.04.
[16:18] <Jordan_U> Teraunce: SiS is the worst brand of graphics card as far as Linux support goes.
[16:19] <Razor11> excuse me again.. how do i run ubuntu on vmware?
[16:19] <genii-around> preetam: If sdcard is for instance at /dev/sdc   and you want to make an image of it into a file in your home directory called file.img then:  cd && ddrescue /dev/sdc file.img
[16:19] <Teraunce> sadly it's what my 6-year old crappy black friday walmart emachine came with Jordan_U
[16:20] <kz_> I need help migrating my home folder from my old computer to my new computer.  Both computers are on a LAN and I am a sudoer.  I need to transfer about 75gb.  My main problem is preserving usernames. The bulk of the files belong to my old userid, but there are files belonging to root.  I want to bring my old home directory over, including the files that are owned by root without forcing all files to be owned by root. How do i do this?
[16:21] <kz_> a blind cp -Rp doesn't seem to work
[16:21] <kz_> all files end up belonging to root
[16:22] <kz_> also, are there any other tools i should consider using instead of cp? rsync is not good for a first time copy, right? I've got a huge amount of small files, so cp is slow.
[16:22] <Loreley> hello, I want to use sbackup. I want to backup some directories including /media/win7/Users but want to exclude /media. Can sbackup handle this?
[16:23] <sipior> kz_: "cp -a" is an option. also, look into using "pax -rw"
[16:23] <kz_> pax?
[16:23] <kz_> are those options to cp?
[16:23] <sipior> kz_: pax is an archiver program, like tar and cpio.
[16:24] <kz_> I see
[16:24] <natasha_> привет
[16:24] <kz_> is there an easy way to remap uid and gids ?
[16:24] <Pici> !ru | natasha_
[16:24] <natasha_> hi
[16:24] <sipior> kz_: the -a switch to cp will preserve them, if that's what you want.
[16:24] <twinggy> hi
[16:25] <MPX> Hi! I'm having a stationary PC and a Laptop PC hooked up in a cable-network through a router. Problem: They can not see each other in nautilus, under network. Sometimes it works if I reboot the computer enough times. Anybody else have
[16:25] <kz_> well, i don't have the same uid on my new system
[16:25] <MPX> the same problem?
[16:25] <kz_> what are my options?
[16:25] <sipior> kz_: recursive chown (-R)
[16:25] <BluesKaj>  kz_ what about cp -r to copy folders
[16:25] <twinggy> I reinstalled the grub; but now it's coming in shell mode; not a graphical one; how to solve this pls?
[16:25] <iridium> chown your new user
[16:25] <kz_> kz_: ok,
[16:26] <kz_> BluesKaj: I need to copy a mix of files owned by root and my user
[16:26] <sipior> kz_: another option is to simply set your account's new uid to your old one.
[16:26] <BluesKaj> kz_, ok
[16:26] <kz_> sipior: ok, thanks. i'll try and do a cp -a

[16:41] <L551> So I have an issue with an Ubuntu 10.10 laptop. When it is booted up, and a user signs in, it doesn't connect to the wireless network unless I sign into my own account and unlock the "keyring". Is there a way to fix this so I don't have to sign in and unlock it so other users can go online?
[16:41] <fajri> a
[16:41] <BluesKaj> Triscar0, dunno , I prepartitonand format my hdds , ot I'll use the alyernate install which has more options than the liuve cd
[16:42] <BluesKaj> !alternate | Triscar0
[16:42] <Lasers> L551: I have no idea -- but one way is to delete keyring profile -- and create a new one -- leave it blank so it'll use unsafe storage.

[16:53] <Guest71358> anybody there
[16:53] <insomniaSalt> noone is here.
[16:53] <beachbuddah> any ideas on how to fix?
[16:53] <chad____> Lasers: http://paste.ubuntu.com/634379/
[16:54] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, does,' lsusb ' in the terminal show the drive when connected
[16:54] <Lasers> chad____: I don't see Desktop directory? :)
[16:54] <beachbuddah> lsusb notes the presence of the drive
[16:54] <Lasers> chad____: Try "ls -al ~/Desktop"
[16:54] <Lasers> chad____: You want to create one -- "mkdir ~/Desktop" --
[16:55] <chad____> Lasers: I know you don't see it now, but I already did it! I'll do it again, haha :)
[16:55] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, what about nautlius > places ?

[16:57] <nucleus> hey, how do I open port 25?
[16:57] <Lasers> chad____: You could nuke gconf settings -- Not sure how I can do it -- but I recall it was possible to put ~/ on your Desktop.  Maybe that's what you tried to do?
[16:58] <dr_willis> nucleus,  by default theres no locked ports. unless you are using some firewall rules.. its open
[16:58] <dr_willis> whats port 25 anyway? i forget.
[16:58] <insomniaSalt> nucleus: usually by browsing to your routers NAT configuration interface

[16:59] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, look at the lsusb  output for lsusb of the drive and try this : sudo mount -o remount,rw /path/to/drive
[16:59] <chad____> Lasers: I was doing a backup via BackInTime when it occurred. I'm uncertain how it happened.
[16:59] <beachbuddah> BluesKaj- ty will do
[17:00] <Lasers> chad____: Right now, you're seeing lot of folders, hidden folders and files on your desktop? (Assuming you have nautilus toggled on).
[17:00] <Lasers> nautilus hidden mode*
[17:01] <chad____> Lasers: Yes. However, I'm using the XFCE DE.
[17:03] <Lasers> chad____: Meh. I don't know. I don't use XFCE. Sorry about the headaches you're having. :\

[17:04] <guest1987> hi all, i have a question... Im not sure if anyone in here has but i just started to get ubuntu back on my PS3, i have followed the guide for building the kernel and getting petitboot working however the site i was following is down and wondered if anyone might be able to assist ?
[17:04] <beachbuddah> BluesKaj, the lsusb output for the drive is very long - which/what would the 'drive' look like?
[17:04] <chad____> Lasers: It's okay! I really thank you for attempting to help me. I think it switched to use your home directory as the desktop directory
[17:04] <Lasers> chad____: Right. In Gnome, it should be in gconf -- but I don't know if XFCE utilize the same thing.
[17:04] <guest1987> this is the site, but as i say its down at the moment :- http://wiki.gitbrew.org/index.php/PS3:Linux#Ubuntu
[17:05] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, could you pastebin the output of lsusb
[17:05] <beachbuddah> Blueskaj - okey dokey
[17:05] <dr_willis> guest1987,  i seem, to recall some sort of google-cache service that might let you get to a cache of the site.. but ive never used it.. trying the site now.
[17:06] <slowernet> i have a server with several IPs assigned in interfaces as eth0, eth0:0, eth0:1, etc. how do i set which of those is the canonical IP for outgoing traffic? they changed after an emergency reboot.
[17:06] <Stickboy> I need help setting up my wireless internet in Ubuntu 11.04...
[17:06] <reyes> Hi, i need help. from version 10.04 I have problems with Ubuntu (I think) my graphics card. This problem arises especially when working with graphics or CPU usage much. The problem is that it breaks the GUI as you see in the image and the entire computer is very slow: I'm running Ubuntu http://imageshack.us/f/90/pantallazo1mb.png/ 11.04 and Intel graphics card ® 945G x86/MMX/SSE2
[17:06] <dr_willis> seems to be down here also guest1987  -
[17:06] <Faustus2> how does one "open" a file in nautilus with a bash-script? eg: if i make a script "play" containing 'mplayer' that wount work
[17:06] <guest1987> dr_willis, i got the guide :- http://pastie.org/2134792 if your interested but its not working as i expected and im left with a built kernel but no way of booting it,
[17:06] <beachbuddah> BluesKaj - http://pastebin.com/MrRwKS2N
[17:07] <dr_willis> guest1987,  i dont own a ps3. so no idea
[17:07] <dr_willis> !ps3
[17:07] <Stickboy> it says that the firmware is missing
[17:07] <chad____> Lasers: It's no problem, hah.
[17:07] <guest1987> its more petitboot i think than ubuntu its self as all you are left with is a base system with apt and a kernel.......
[17:07] <dr_willis> Faustus2,  nautilus has some sort of scripting feature and directory. its not too hard to use. but its not that well documented
[17:08] <dr_willis> Faustus2,  check out http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/
[17:09] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, it should be listed in /media in nautilus
[17:09] <reyes> any person know that i can make for resolve the problem?
[17:09] <Faustus2> dr_willis: thanks doc :)
[17:09] <beachbuddah> ok lemme check
[17:09] <rostayob> How do I list the files installed by some package?
[17:09] <dr_willis> Faustus2,  i seem to recall some python-nautilus script addon also that was very well done.
[17:11] <BluesKaj> beachbuddah, gotta go for about 10 mins ...bbl
[17:11] <beachbuddah> BluesKaj - the only things listed in my /media are an external drive and a DVD that happens to be in THAT drive - no Toshiba stick

[17:40] <Pici> !ot | Diverdude
[17:41] <dr_willis> Diverdude,  redhat as a company focuses on selling server/service/support... businesses like that... Ubuntu is also   targeted at a similer market in ways.

[17:43] <nimrod10`> Diverdude, you also have on top of that third parties like Vmware that will only offer support if you're running RedHat
[17:43] <IdleOne> BajK: you feeling ok?
[17:43] <subz3r0> To secure my samba-share on my netbook a bit, ive addet: interfaces = ip.of.the.netbooks, bind interfaces only = yes, und hosts allow = ip.of.the.client, addet to smb.conf. now when i try to do a share, ill get the error msg : "net usershare gives the error 255 back, net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused.maybe smbd is not running" Does any1 know how i can fix this?
[17:44] <Diverdude> nimrod10`, hmm vmware....i can just use vbox if i want to use something virtual?
[17:44] <dr_willis> Virtualbox is a very very handy tool for many ussage cases.
[17:44] <dr_willis> Its worth playign with at least. :)
[17:44] <subz3r0> dr_willis, w0rd!
[17:45] <Diverdude> dr_willis, sure is...i just said i can use that instead of vmware if thats the only reason one should choose redhat
[17:46] <guiledazimba___> what i can do if one printer do not have a driver to linux?! printer: Sharp AL-1645CS
[17:46] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: contact the vendor for a driver
[17:46] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: dont have support to linux.. :/

[17:46] <guest1987> !min
[17:47] <nimrod10`> Diverdude, ofcourse you could just use vbox , but know you understand why redhat might be more widespread / used  then other flavours
[17:47] <reyes> Slart my fans are clean. I make this time ago
[17:47] <dr_willis> Biggest thing i do in virtualbox  = test new live cd's
[17:47] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: buy a printer that does have support
[17:47] <Triscar0> i have formated my hd, and trying to boot ubuntu 10.04 from cd, the cd starts but then the screen turns black and nothing happens, have tryed downloaded iso from different sites and burn new cd, nothing works!
[17:47] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  you did check the linuxprinting.org and cups.org sites?
[17:47] <dr_willis> Triscar0,  whats yoru video chipset?
[17:47] <Pici> dr_willis, Diverdude: you were asked to take this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic as it is not related to Ubuntu support. Please do so.
[17:47] <dr_willis> !nomodeset | Triscar0
[17:48] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: but that is the printer in the bussines.
[17:48] <Diverdude> Pici, cal down. it is relatd to ubuntu. i am considering to use ubuntu or redhat
[17:48] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: no way to print?
[17:48] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: what do you want me to do ? it doesn't have linux support ? I can't make it have linux support, only the vendor can
[17:48] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: if it's not supported, no
[17:48] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  you have checked those 2 sites?
[17:49] <guiledazimba___> what sites?
[17:49] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  you did check the linuxprinting.org and cups.org sites?
[17:49] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: yeap

[17:49] <codex84> to shirnk wii iso
[17:49] <codex84> ???
[17:49] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: i read something about a virtual machine
[17:50] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: what about it ?
[17:50] <dr_willis> codex84,  any archiver tools can compress the iso into a zip or rar. or tar.gz
[17:50] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: install the printer in virtual machine with the native drivers and later share the printer with the main system ( in the case, linux )
[17:51] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: ok, but that's not printing in linux
[17:51] <guiledazimba___> ikonia: make sence?
[17:51] <dr_willis> i have to wonder how linux would havce drivers for a shared network printer in that case.. unless its a PLC5 printer or similer..
[17:51] <ikonia> guiledazimba___: not really no, but it's up to you if you want to do that
[17:51] <codex84> alright thanks
[17:51] <dr_willis> but if that was the case.. you could use plc5 on linux directly anyway.
[17:51] <codex84> dr lol
[17:52] <dr_willis> Guess you could use the Print-to-pdf type feature of ubuntu.
[17:52] <Slart> reyes: then I don't really know.. keep asking, perhaps there's someone out there who recognizes the problem
[17:52] <reyes> i send my problem to askubuntu. thx Slart :)
[17:52] <Slart> reyes: you're welcome
[17:53] <guiledazimba___> i try use PL5 but when i send a document to print, nothing hapens.. the solicitation appears in the spool but no pages printed
[17:53] <guiledazimba___> i tried pl3,4,5 and 6..
[17:53] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  you proberly need to research the priner more and figure out exactly what sort of drivers/alternative drivers it can use.

[17:54] <Puuks> I mean, it`s not too "heavy" of something like that
[17:54] <ikonia> Puuks: yes
[17:54] <ikonia> Puuks: depends on your hardware specificaion, but yes

[17:59] <dr_willis> or off as off position.
[17:59] <Slart> fajri: you'll have to use wine.. there is no native linux client for Sketchup
[17:59] <dr_willis> fajri,  if its the windows installer. download it. install wine.. 'wine theinstaller.exe'
[18:00] <jdevel> messed up, I dropped the OS as a VM and SSH into it is fine, as I'm using the connecting configuration rather than the server

THere is a screen with 'mountall:disconnected from plymouth'. However if I restart my computer again and select a previous version 11.04 runs smoothly. What is my problem here?
[18:02] <xangua> fajri: sudo apt-get install wine

[18:10] <ajacmac> I'm trying to install python 2.7.2 and 3.1.4 on ubuntu netbook (10.04, if it matters), and apt-get can't seem to find them. Is this the correct channel?
[18:11] <subz3r0> no1 got an idea how i can fix my samba issue? ;(
[18:11] <Pici> ajacmac: python3.1 is available on 10.04, but 2.7 is not.
[18:12] <ajacmac> ah, ok thank you
[18:12] <Pici> !info python3.1 lucid
[18:12] <Success> i have 1104 though
[18:12] <Pici> !who | Success
[18:12] <dr_willis> subz3r0,  with samba - i often find it best to start with a simple config and work your way up. I never bother with those security settings
[18:13] <Success> ahbit
[18:14] <subz3r0> dr_willis, i followed the german wiki, but it says when i use sometimes not secure connections (usb-stick, internet caffee etc. ) i should add those three lines to the smb.conf. but after that i cannot make a share within nautilus, thats weird
[18:14] <ajacmac> !tab?
[18:14] <subz3r0> interfaces = ip.of.the.netbooks, bind interfaces only = yes, und hosts allow = ip.of.the.client
[18:15] <subz3r0> when i uncomment them and restart the server everything works fine again
[18:15] <dr_willis> subz3r0,   if connecting in such places. i would just make sure samba is off.
[18:15] <dr_willis> subz3r0,  make your shares in the samba config file. not the user created shares perhaps? how often do you need to make a share on the fly like that?
[18:16] <subz3r0> 5-6 times a week. maybe u could tell me how i can stop samba from autorunning?
[18:16] <subz3r0> just need it to share documents to my netbook. thats why im using the share over nautilus
[18:17] <dr_willis> sudo service samba stop    to stop it as needed.. or remove/rename the /etc/init/  script that starts samba
[18:17] <dr_willis> subz3r0,  you could use winscp and ssh to get files back/forth if you wanted to..
[18:17] <dr_willis> you can also setup a 'home' share - and let the netbook get to your entire home directory.
[18:19] <selvakumaran> does any1 have installed Komodo Edit?
[18:19] <subz3r0> dr_willis,  when i remove the script with mv from /etc/init/.... to /home/user and want it back that the autostart works again, its no problem to move it back?
[18:20] <subz3r0> never moved something from /etc/init to somewhere
[18:20] <dr_willis> you can just rename ot to /etc/init/whateveritscalled.conf to  whatever.DONTRUN if you wanted to in the same dir
[18:20] <dr_willis> There may be a better way to disable/enable it on the fly.. but ive never really seen a better way
[18:20] <fajri> why after i'm install ubuntu 10.10. smart status : disk failure immminent
[18:21] <dr_willis>  sudo mv /etc/smbd.conf  /etc/init/smbd.DONTRUN
[18:22] <Slart> fajri: might be that one of your hard drives thinks that it's going to die soon
[18:22] <Jorl17> Hello, I am looking for some help on install 32-bit binaries of the nvidia binary package installed by apt. I have a 64-bit machine and have the nvidia files in /usr/lib/nvidia-current, but not in /usr/lib32/nvidia-current. I need these 32 bit files for Wine.
[18:22] <dr_willis> fajri,  the smart monitoring tools see a set # of failures in the smart info. and is warning you.  ive found the 10.10 suggestions to be a little bit.. over zelous and paranoid..
[18:22] <dr_willis> fajri,  but you may want to chck the disks with some other smart tools, and be sure to do proper backups
[18:23] <dr_willis> Jorl17,  why do you need them for wine?
[18:23] <Jorl17> I would simply like to know how to install these lib32 files.
[18:23] <Jorl17> Because wine is a 32-bit application and it needs the 32-bit libraries.
[18:23] <dr_willis> ive never needed to install  them for wine to work forme on my 64bit systems
[18:23] <dr_willis> Im not sure why wine would need the nvidia drivers at all.
[18:23] <Jorl17> For 3d
[18:24] <dr_willis> ive ran 3d games without doing this stuff.
[18:24] <Jorl17> D3D. But there's some *extra* thing I haven't said
[18:24] <Jorl17> And it becomes very important in fact
[18:24] <dr_willis> for direct3d tweaking you have checked out the winetricks tool? and the wine app database?
[18:24] <Jorl17> I own one of those optimus prime-suckers.
[18:24] <Renierius> Any idea why there would be a big red square in the left corner of my screen with a "1" on it? There's no extra screen plugged in or such.
[18:24] <guest1987> Q). is there a server i can pull sources.list files from for Ubuntu PPC ? ie the default one for your LANG ?
[18:25] <dr_willis> RenaKunisaki,  the monitors 'settings tool' can get stuck ive seen.. saw that question asked once in here befor.. the guy had to check/kill some process to get it to vanish.. 'gnome-monitor-settings' or somtjhing named like that
[18:25] <Jorl17> Winetricks for d3d isn't needed nowadays. I'm quite experience with Wine and Linux, but this is indeed the first 64 bit machine I have, let alone one for which I need bumblebee.
[18:25] <selvakumaran> i couldn't install Komodo Edit as well as Aptana Studio , can one help me?
[18:26]  * RenaKunisaki headtilt
[18:26] <dr_willis> Dual GPU setups - are such a 'cutting edge work in progress'  all i can say is good luck.
[18:26] <dr_willis> Hope the 2  video card laptop stuff gets all smoothed out in time for the next release.  There must be 4+ people in here a day asking about them/bumblebee/otehr issues with them
[18:26] <Jorl17> Still, I didn't ask for help about that, I just asked out how to install the 32bit packages.
[18:27] <Triscar0> i have tryed boot with usb stick, but the lilo slackware boot screen just came up... any ideas why i cant boot ubuntu ?
[18:27] <dr_willis> Triscar0,  bios is not set to boot it.. or the usb stick is not made properly. so it goes to the HD.
[18:28] <Jorl17> Following discussions such as http://osdir.com/ml/hybrid-graphics-linux/2011-06/msg00039.html I see that there is some package nvidia-current-32
[18:28] <Jorl17> I mean lib32-nvidia-utils
[18:29] <Jorl17> but that's for arch. What about ubuntu?
[18:29] <guest1987> !sources.list
[18:30] <rahin> Hiya guys
[18:30] <Triscar0> dr_willis, but i have tryed cd and usb stick. and the cd booted but then the screen just got black.
[18:30] <Jorl17> Yes, but I'd like to know what the equivalent to lib32-nvidia-utils is
[18:30] <Jorl17> Pointing me to a repository without me knowing the name of the package isn't that much of a help. I've used Ubuntu for 4 years, I'm ok with that, honestly. I'd just like to know which package has these 32-bit libraries
[18:31] <BostX> Hi all
[18:32] <BostX> guys can anyone tell me how to make all the window borders and window titles smaller.  We're not there yet now, but we've been further away.
[18:35] <dr_willis> Triscar0,  have you tried the nomodeset option to see if its a video issue?
[18:35] <dr_willis> !nomodeset
[18:35] <Corey> Jorl17: If you're looking for a specific file, apt-file is your friend.
[18:35] <Ervin89> Before I ask this question its kind of long. About 7 to 9 lines. Is that a problem? or do I need to put it in that note thing online (I forget the website now)
[18:36] <dr_willis> BostX,  that would be a theme/window decorator setting/option.  easy way wouldbe find a theme with smaller title/borders
[18:36] <Jorl17> Corey, thanks, I will try that.
[18:36] <Pici> !floodbot | DOOD
[18:36] <dr_willis> !pastebin | Ervin89
[18:36] <Ervin89> ty dr_willis
[18:36] <Corey> Jorl17: apt-file update first, then apt-file search /path/to/file/in/question, it spits out which package contains it.
[18:36] <DOOD> hello
[18:37] <DOOD> can anybody help plz
[18:37] <dr_willis> DOOD,  tell the channel your problem/question/issue.
[18:37] <Jorl17> yeah I figured it out already by reading through the manual, thanks.
[18:37] <Ervin89> Hello all. I need some quick help (Hopefully). I am using Fuduntu basically a cross between Ubuntu and Fedora. It seems like it is more Ubuntu though. Anyway back to the point. I am trying to use unetbootin. I need to run it as root. Here is my problem when I try to in terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/634447/
[18:38] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  to run an app as root use gksudo.
[18:38] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  and i suggest just using the normal ubuntu.
[18:38] <dr_willis> sicne getting support for Fuduntu is not here...  no idea where it would be supported at.. check its homepage.
[18:39] <DOOD> i have ubuntu installed on my pc but when i want to put cd's in for my networkstick i dont know wheather i should use the windows version or what
[18:39] <wrd> !sound
[18:39] <Pici> Ervin89: They have their own channel here: #fuduntu
[18:40] <dr_willis> DOOD,  if you mean use windows drivers for a usb-network-adaptor.. they dont work in linux.
[18:40] <Ervin89> Well I was usinng rgular ubuntu. But the new 11.04? Number correct? Does not like me whatsoever. So I have to use 10. And Skype ruins my internet connection on it for some reason. So I tried Fedora and it was great for my skype. But It had some issues So i thought Fuduntu. But Now i want to dual Boot fedora hence why i need to use unetboot
[18:40] <Corey> DOOD: What model of "network stick" are you referring to?
[18:40] <Ervin89> Thanks dr_willis and Pici no one is ever there
[18:40] <sarkis> hey guys, anyone using urxvt or xterm? if so, how are you starting this up in gnome?
[18:40] <DOOD> not a bramdded one
[18:40] <DOOD> n
[18:40] <sarkis> kind of sucks that i start up gnome-terminal to start urxvt or xterm :P
[18:40] <Corey> DOOD: There a part number on it somewhere?
[18:40] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  sounds like a good reason to use normal ubuntu then.
[18:41] <Ervin89> But skype then wont work
[18:41] <DOOD> one min
[18:41] <Jorl17> Corey Nope, I don't find any package that installs 32 bit NVIDIA packages. Any idea?
[18:41] <Corey> DOOD: Let's take this another way.  dmesg | tail -f in a terminal window, and then plug in the "network stick."  It should spit out what it is.
[18:41] <dr_willis> sarkis,  make an icon on the desktop for it? use gnome-do? set it to be the default-terminal emulator? :)
[18:41] <Jorl17> I do find http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/amd64/nvidia-current/filelistbut that's for AMD64
[18:41] <Jorl17> http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/amd64/nvidia-current/filelist *
[18:41] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  skype is breaking on everything these days it seems...
[18:41] <sarkis> dr_willis: thanks
[18:41] <sarkis> you guys using urxvt or xterm over gnome-terminal on buuntu?
[18:42] <DOOD> i dont understand u
[18:42] <qin> sarkis: urxvt
[18:42] <Corey> DOOD: Nevermind. :-)
[18:42] <DOOD> what do u mean
[18:42] <DOOD> 0:
[18:42] <Triscar0> ubuntu 10.04.2 dont boot, slackware 13.1 dont boot, slackware 13.37 boots up with cd, think my pc lives it own life.
[18:42] <DOOD> ):
[18:43] <dr_willis> sarkis,  personally i perfer 'terminator' these days
[18:43] <Ervin89> dr_willis: might be the noobest question ever but I guess gksudo does not work for me. I am guessing use that command in place for sudo correct?
[18:43] <DOOD> hello]
[18:43] <Corey> !pm | DOOD
[18:43] <dr_willis>  gksudo = is sudo for running gui apps.
[18:43] <Ervin89> yah command not found
[18:43] <DOOD> hello
[18:43] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  its a standard ubuntu command on gnome at least....
[18:43] <dr_willis> !gksudo
[18:44] <eoeas> DOOD: Accessories -> Terminal, then type: dmesg | tail -f
[18:44] <eoeas> Then plug in your USB device.
[18:44] <oal> Gaaah!  Either above all my windows unable to hide, or the app starter is stuck behind my windows, unable to get to the front. Wtf is happening?
[18:44] <noisewaterphd> use gnome
[18:44] <dr_willis> oal,  Unity is so flakey for me and my nvidia system here.. i cant even use it...
[18:44] <Dulak> oal: welcome to hell
[18:44] <BluesKaj> Triscar0,  I did suggest the alternate live cd, looks like you have a HW problem which the alternate might solve
[18:44] <Dbl_Tap> oal: just select ubutnu classic interface from login page.
[18:44] <dr_willis> I have to run 'unity --replace' like 10+ times a day
[18:45] <DOOD> ok i'm using windows to connect to the internet so try it in a few min
[18:45] <Triscar0> BluesKaj, what is the exact name of it? so i can find an url to download
[18:45] <oal> Dbl_Tap: thanks, that just saved my life :P
[18:45] <BluesKaj> !alternate
[18:45] <Dbl_Tap> oal: np I realy like cairo-dock, although a little off-topic.
[18:46] <DOOD> co' its on same computer
[18:46] <Nox> hey guys, can anyone give me some help in locating a "read me file" or anything usefull in getting started with backtrack4?
[18:46] <sayz> hi guys
[18:46] <Dbl_Tap> nox: do they not include a man page for the package?
[18:47] <BluesKaj>  !backtrack | Nox
[18:47] <Triscar0> BluesKaj, thnx i found it
[18:47] <Nox> nope just individual mans for exploits which sounds usefull but really un organized which becomes frustrating
[18:47] <DOOD> and online what operating system do i use for downloading
[18:47] <DOOD> ?
[18:47] <sayz> today, after updating, i can't open chromium-browser
[18:47] <DOOD> do i select
[18:48] <dr_willis> Ervin89,  fuduntu is 'fedora' based.. so you proberly should be asking in there..  it seems to have little if any ubuntu in it.. other then the name.
[18:48] <oal> dr_willis: now, unity --replace does not unstuck the left bar. This really is hell.
[18:48] <sayz> error is that: [1:1:10947628597:FATAL:rand_util_posix.cc(26)] Check failed: fd_ >= 0 (-1 vs. 0)Cannot open /dev/urandom: 2
[18:48] <eoeas> DOOD: Also try connecting via CAT5 cable to your modem, plug in the wireless, goto Administration -> Hardware drivers, chances are that is will get installed the easy way ;)
[18:48] <DOOD> but i also have its cd
[18:48] <Ervin89> yah I am there now dr_willis just trying ubuntu first. I seem to get better and more responses from here
[18:48] <BluesKaj> DOOD, you use windows to download then burn the ubuntu live iso
[18:49] <DOOD> it has linux or windows as choices
[18:49] <DOOD> so what do i choose
[18:50] <dr_willis> oal,  yep. ive basically given up on unity for now.  Im rolloing my own little desktop :)   openbox  + xcompmgr + docky
[18:50] <DOOD> can i have some help
[18:50] <DOOD> plz
[18:50] <Corey> DOOD: You're going to have to unfortunately be a little bit more descriptive.  Nobody here has the slightest clue what this network adapter actually is. :-)
[18:50] <sandyridgeracer> DOOD if u have a 2gb pen drive u can boot from pen drive itself...
[18:50] <DOOD> a network one
[18:50] <Corey> OH WELL THEN...
[18:50] <Ervin89> hahaha

[18:52] <eoeas> Corey: Nice one :P
[18:52] <Ervin89> WOW see the Fedora people still have not even said anything in there
[18:52] <Dbl_Tap> ervin89: you'll have better luck later today in the fedora channel; there are quite a few that get on later.
[18:52] <Ervin89> Ahhh ok

[18:56] <riyasmp> hi guys i am trying to install flash player plugin on ubuntu 11.04 64 bit from synaptic, i am getting this error message , Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-installer_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>_amd64.deb 404  Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[18:56] <riyasmp> , can any one help
[18:56] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  you did check out the printer at the linuxprinting.org and cups.org site?  most printers have basic drivers that can at least do somthing.
[18:56] <guiledazimba___> dr_willis: the printer is conected in other computer via USB
[18:57] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  so its a 'shared printer'       - shared from a differnt pc.
[18:57] <dr_willis> vs. a 'network printer' like i have here.. that goes straight into the router via cat-5
[18:58] <guiledazimba___> dr_willis: yeap.. is a shared printer
[18:58] <torturedsoul> hi
[18:59] <torturedsoul> is there any live cd that is ONLY a linux terminal
[18:59] <torturedsoul> so i can run commands
[18:59] <guiledazimba___> but do not exist driver sto this printer
[18:59] <torturedsoul> i want something lite i can put on a usb and boot with
[18:59] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  so you have PC #1 - windows - shared printer....                   PC2 - UBuntu - wanting to access pc1/printer
[18:59] <torturedsoul> i dont need a gui
[18:59] <eoeas> riyasmp: Download it manually and use: dpkg i [package name]
[18:59] <torturedsoul> just a terminal...
[18:59] <oCean> riyasmp: that's a slightly older version than in the repositories. Run  sudo apt-get update  then apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
[18:59] <guiledazimba___> dr_willis: yes
[18:59] <tertl3> torturedsoul, just kill gnome
[19:00] <dr_willis> torturedsoul,  theres disrtos like that.. see  the disrtowatch.com site.. check out tinycorelinux. most have options to do a console. or desktop. ubuntu has the 'text' optioon to go to console.
[19:00] <eoeas> riyasmp: The link does not work, server issue or incorrect repository entry.
[19:00] <torturedsoul> thanks dr willis
[19:00] <dddbmt> hey guys, could anybody take a look at these errors for me? It's occuring when I try to run update manager.
[19:00] <rtyui> hello
[19:00] <oCean> eoeas: no, the version is older than available
[19:00] <dddbmt> http://pastebin.com/YRNR2eSj
[19:00] <torturedsoul> lol
[19:00] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  windows has some sort of generic 'pdf' type printer driver. and linux can do a 'print to pdf'  feature. you can proberly get going.  it may depend on the exact printer..
[19:00] <rtyui> very hot here
[19:00] <torturedsoul> 'micro tiny core' only 6mb
[19:01] <oCean> rtyui: do you have a support question?
[19:01] <dr_willis> torturedsoul,  multicore 35mb is handier. :)
[19:01] <guiledazimba___> its a Sharp 1645CS
[19:01] <rtyui> well
[19:01] <lnb_> trying to get rid of links in /tmp with a script. find -L /tmp -type l -atime +2 -exec '{}' /bin/rm -f \;
[19:01] <eoeas> oCean: or that, yes.
[19:01] <rtyui> i host cms on my server
[19:01] <malik_b> I try to install Ubuntu 11.04, but the instalation failed to continue, please can someone help me?
[19:01] <lnb_> running it as root produces stuff like: find: `/tmp/4e08a5fbe928f': Permission denied
[19:01] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  and you ahve checked the cups.org and linuxprinting.org sites?
[19:02] <lnb_> any idea how I can make this work?
[19:02] <rtyui> what i have to install to able to submit email form to a mail id ?
[19:02] <oCean> rtyui: try to describe your issue (detailing your ubuntu version, steps taken sofar etc) in single line please
[19:02] <guiledazimba___> yeap.. do not have suport
[19:02] <riyasmp> eoeas, oCean thanks a lot guys, its working now
[19:02] <riyasmp> thanks
[19:02] <guiledazimba___> dr_willis:  do not have support to
[19:02] <rtyui> i got ubuntu lucid oCean
[19:03] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  a quick google search for that printer and 'ubuntu' mentions ------> http://www.stat.tamu.edu/~henrik/GSPSprinter/GSPSprinter.html
[19:03] <g0th> hi
[19:03] <g0th> what is a good program to do scripting with scalable vector graphics?
[19:03] <dddbmt> I get these errors when trying to run Update Manager in ubuntu 11.04; http://pastebin.com/YRNR2eSj - I guess i need to edit sources.list ?
[19:03] <g0th> like: "take this figure, rotate it, scale it and put it there"
[19:03] <guiledazimba___> dr_willis: http://www.openprinting.org/printers
[19:03] <Slart> g0th: imagemagick might be able to do that
[19:04] <Slart> g0th: not sure if that's just bitmaps though..
[19:04] <Slart> !imagemagick | g0th
[19:04] <Slart> oh.. no factoid about that.. sorry g0th
[19:04] <g0th> I know imagemagick
[19:04] <g0th> I guess you mean the api?
[19:04] <oCean> rtyui: the installation manual of your cms should describe what you have to install (prereqs) to use mail (and other) options
[19:05] <g0th> for programming?
[19:05] <joshuaL> I want to use PulseAudio as DLNA server. I already installed rygel but I eccounter errors when I connect to it with my PS3..
[19:05] <joshuaL> Any suggestions?
[19:05] <Slart> g0th: or use bash for your programming.. or python with the api.. depends on how much "programming" you have to do
[19:05] <dr_willis> guiledazimba___,  also i think win7 has some sort of 'virtual pdf' printer. you could print to from linux and it converts to pdf, then could print.. you will have todo some work to get  that thing going it seems
[19:05] <torturedsoul> hmm
[19:06] <dr_willis> DLNA is such a neat idea.. that works.. so poorly at times. :(  some times it works very well
[19:06] <Triscar0> BluesKaj, it boots up, but now my keyboard dont work! lol
[19:06] <torturedsoul> making it into usb bootable thingy magig
[19:06] <torturedsoul> should i select convert isolinux based bootable dvd or wrapt bootable dvd
[19:06] <torturedsoul> im using flashboot
[19:06] <dr_willis> never heard of flashboot.. I reccomend the tools at the pendrivelinux web site.
[19:06] <torturedsoul> i have that tool
[19:06] <torturedsoul> it failed me for ubuntu
[19:07] <dr_willis> or just set up a grub2 setup to boot the iso.. pendrivelinux has tools to automate that also.
[19:07] <torturedsoul> downloaded latest ubuntu iso, used pendrive linux... wont boot from my new usb stick
[19:07] <dr_willis> I have had specific stick/some machine issues.. that then work on other machines... older USB sticks/machiens seem more problematic.
[19:07] <torturedsoul> new laptop, new stick (limited edition even lol)
[19:08] <g0th> Slart: can imagemagick handle complicated image compositions through command line?
[19:09] <dr_willis> torturedsoul,  does the stick not boot.. or does ubuntu boot but fails to boot properly to desktop?  (2 very difffent problems)
[19:10] <torturedsoul> the stick boots and says something along the lines of
[19:10] <torturedsoul> iso not found
[19:10] <Slart> g0th: I haven't really used imagemagick beyond some simple scripted resizes.. but from what I've heard it is very powerful.. I'm afraid I can't really help you with specifics.. not sure if there is a channel dedicated to imagemagick.. #imagemagick perhaps?
[19:11] <torturedsoul> its a sandisk cruizer blade 4gb stick
[19:11] <torturedsoul> the one made of plastic that is so light u lose it after 1 week
[19:12] <dr_willis> torturedsoul,  theres unetbootin, and lili, and like 3 other tools at pendrivelinux, and proberly 5+ other tools taht can put the iso on a flash drive.. try some other one i guess..
[19:12] <adas> Anyone using ccextractor or know how to compile it?
[19:12] <dr_willis> then theres the ubuntu usb-disk-creator tools.
[19:12] <torturedsoul> ok
[19:12] <rhin0> converts most image formats to other formats in most sizes and shapes (imagemagick convert command)
[19:12] <torturedsoul> im no expert, probably i did something wrong
[19:12] <dr_willis> torturedsoul,  just dont try dding the iso to the flash.. that wont work
[19:12] <torturedsoul> yea of course
[19:13] <dr_willis> it CAN work for some disrtos. :) not ubuntu however
[19:13] <torturedsoul> i just used pendrivelinux to put microlinux on it
[19:13] <torturedsoul> selected use new syslinux
[19:13] <torturedsoul> as it wasnt in the list
[19:13] <torturedsoul> not i have ldlinux.sys and a folder called boot on the stick
[19:13] <torturedsoul> hopefully will work need restart to find out though
[19:13] <yaaar> howdy
[19:13] <torturedsoul> now*
[19:14] <dr_willis> I use some Multi-iso tool from pendrivelinux. it puts the isos on the pendrive. and lets you have several disrtos at the same time ont eh same pendrive
[19:14] <sysdoc_> I've read that gnome-shell from the repos breaks Unity is this still the case? Is the gnome-shell in the repos maintained by ubuntu or is it being ignored completely?
[19:14] <dr_willis> Its being focused on for the next release I belive sysdoc_
[19:15] <dr_willis> Not much work in getting it going on the current release that ive heard of.
[19:15] <yaaar> so at some point the keyboard layout switcher changed behavior. used to be you'd select a layout and it would take effect globally (i.e. in all apps) until you chose a different one. now if you change your layout it takes effect only for the current application, and all the others continue to use whatever they were using before. is there any way to go back to the old behavior?
[19:15] <xangua> sysdoc_: gnome 3 is not currently supported on 11.04
[19:15] <rtyui> i prefer to ask my question here oCean
[19:16] <yaaar> it makes absolutely no sense to me why you would want two different keyboard layouts active for different applications at the same time. the typical use case is two users who want different layouts. i can't imagine someone really wanting a different layout for his terminal than he uses for email
[19:17] <yaaar> oh and btw i'm on 10.04
[19:17] <yaaar> (but this is the same in 11.04)
[19:17] <dr_willis> yaaar,  sounds like a good question for askubuntu.com    (or it may allready been asked there)  -  I never use layouts. :)
[19:18] <yaaar> dr_willis: yeah, i use colemak...but occasionally somebody will want to sit at my computer and do something, so i have a standard qwerty layout available for them
[19:20] <simchan5005> hi guys, how can i get my touchpad work. i intalled 11.04 and it cant work anymore
[19:20] <sysdoc_> dr_willis, thanks
[19:20] <trism> yaaar: are you talking about ibus? if so, 11.04 added a new setting to make the input method global to all applications, IBus Preferences/Advanced Tab/Share the same input method amoung all applications
[19:21] <trism> yaaar: scim used to have that setting as well, but the earlier versions of ibus didn't have it
[19:23] <shreymech> @ all - i have downloaded a mozilla version 5 , but i don't know that how to install a tar.bz2 .. can any one help,,
[19:23] <yaaar> trism: sorry, i don't know what ibus is (and googling it turned up stuff that doesn't seem to be related). i'm talking about the little thing in the notification area that i can click on to switch between keyboard layouts. i have two, one which is labelled "USA" (which is colemak) and one labelled "USA2" (which is qwerty).
[19:24] <Dbl_Tap> shreymech; in nautilus open in archive manager then extract files to location. should have setup scripts in there.
[19:24] <maco> yaaar: ibus is for input method stuff, like to type in japanese. you're just looking at the keyboard indicator i think
[19:25] <shreymech> Dbl_Tap; i checked but can't see any...
[19:25] <maco> yaaar: used to be there was a keyboard setup thing in the preferences menu. im sure its still around somewhere but i dont know how to find it in unity
[19:25] <Pici> shreymech: Which release of Ubuntu are you using?
[19:25] <yaaar> maco: i'm on 10.04, so (thankfully) i'm not dealing with unity
[19:25] <trism> yaaar: ahh, alright, sorry, I know what you mean now, that's controlled by gnome-settings-daemon
[19:25] <shreymech> Pici; currently using a 3.6 release..
[19:25] <yaaar> oh for pete's sake. sorry guys, i'm just blind
[19:25] <Pici> shreymech: Thats not what I asked you.  What version of *Ubuntu* are you using?
[19:26] <shreymech> Pici; now i have downloaded a version 5 few min. back
[19:26] <shreymech> Pici; i am using 10.04
[19:26] <Dbl_Tap> shreymech: should be a readme file in the location you extracted to. Does anything exist there? or is the .tar.gz file empty
[19:26] <Pici> shreymech: there is a PPA available for firefox5.
[19:27] <yaaar> i had previously looked at the keyboad prefs, but somehow had completely missed the checkbox labeled "separate layout for each window" ....duh.
[19:27] <shreymech> Dbl_tap; in that read me file only the link path from where i downloaded mozilla 5 exist
[19:27] <xangua> !fx5 | shreymech
[19:27] <Pici> shreymech: That will allow you to upgrade via apt, and will take care of all security patches as they become available.
[19:28] <Pici> shreymech: In a terminal, just write: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable
[19:28] <ssbr_> Are there some packages that are in Ubuntu Server Edition but not Ubuntu/Kubuntu/etc. ? "sudo apt-get install alfresco-community" doesn't work here
[19:28] <ssbr_> (unlike as implied on http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/alfresco )
[19:28] <jrib> ssbr_: no
[19:28] <ssbr_> jrib: so how do I find out what a package was renamed to?
[19:28] <Pici> ssbr_: The partner repository is not enabled by default.
[19:29] <jrib> !partner | ssbr_
[19:29] <shreymech> Pici; after that ?
[19:30] <Pici> shreymech: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:30] <ssbr_> I did that command and an apt-get update , still can't install alfresco-community :(
[19:31] <jrib> ssbr_: what ubuntu version
[19:31] <ssbr_> kubuntu 11.4
[19:32] <shreymech> Pici; i need one more suggestion.. currently i am on ubuntu 10.04 and it is showing an update of 650 MB .. so is it better to download and install a new 11.04 fresh or should i go for an upgradation.. i am confused..
[19:32] <Pici> shreymech: It sounds like you haven't been upgrading your packages regularly. regularly
[19:32] <shreymech> Pici; from many days internet connection was not available to me.. now i am back
[19:33] <Pici> shreymech: You can try doing just an: apt-get upgrade, but that is not gauranteed to pull in the new firefox package(s).
[19:33] <shreymech> Pici; but then i need to go through 2 upgrades.. one from 10.04 - 10.10 and than 10.10 - 11.04 ...
[19:33] <Pici> shreymech: Alternatively, just do: apt-get install firefox
[19:33] <Pici> shreymech: yes.
[19:34] <gillyman> i have my buddys computer, and it will not boot past the HP start up screen, can i do a system recovery with out the back up disk
[19:34] <shreymech> Pici; But as i am in india so net connectivity here is not very fast thats why i m thinking of downloading and installing a fresh 11.04 instead of going through long upgradation
[19:35] <jrib> ssbr_: one second.  I see the packages, but they don't seem to be in the index
[19:35] <Pici> shreymech: You can just use the last command I gave you to just install Firefox, so you can do an upgrade to 11.04 at your convenience.
[19:36] <shreymech> Pici; yes it is getting installed .. thanks.. Hmm i have decided to install a fresh 11.04 .. but will it be worth .. is it far far better than 10.04.. if not than i can skip 11.04
[19:38] <Pici> shreymech: If you'd prefer to stay at the LTS release, you can wait until 12.04 comes out.
[19:38] <shreymech> Pici; ohkk.. yes i usually prefer a LTS release..
[19:38] <Pici> shreymech: But you should do an apt-get dist-upgrade to ensure that you have the latest security packages.  (this will not upgrade your Ubuntu release)
[19:39] <shockrates> hey
[19:39] <shockrates> can someone please add those 2 deb packages in ubuntu repository? http://pcsxr.codeplex.com/releases/view/50048 Thanks
[19:40] <shreymech> Pici; ok i will run that command to.. and in between my firefox 5 is installed... hey by security do u mean by protection against virus.. but i knw that linux are free from viruses so no security is needed
[19:40] <Pici> shreymech: I mean any security update. Sometimes bugs are found that expose vulnerabilities in software.
[19:41] <xangua> !packaging > shockrates
[19:41] <jrib> ssbr_: seems like it was only built for jaunty
[19:41] <Monotoko> hmmm...since the debian room are being asses...can I post a debian server related question in here, since it's all based on debian?
[19:41] <shreymech> Pici; oh ok.. hey even that dist-upgrate is showing around 640 Mb's of download.. :(
[19:41] <ssbr_> jrib: Oh. how would I file a bug report to get that page taken down, then?
[19:42] <Jan\> is there a way to access the app repository from a browser?
[19:42] <jrib> ssbr_: if I recall correctly, you can file bugs against the website at launchpad.net
[19:43] <oCean> Jan\: sure, http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ for example
[19:44] <Jan\> ok
[19:45] <Jan\> ah, is there a way to list it similar the way ubuntu lists it?
[19:45] <oCean> Jan\: ?
[19:45] <Jan\> i'm looking for a faxing app
[19:45] <penfold_99> is there a command to install ubunut-desktop but with the attional software packages
[19:45] <Pici> Jan\: http://packages.ubuntu.com might be what you're looking for.
[19:45] <oCean> Jan\: or just  apt-cache search fax | less
[19:46] <Jan\> thx Pici oCean
[19:46] <ssbr_> jrib: I'm not seeing it. THe bug link takes you to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs which is for bugs in the software
[19:46] <jrib> ssbr_: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-website
[19:46] <penfold_99> sorry meant without the additional software packages?
[19:47] <ssbr_> jrib: oh, alright, thanks
[19:48] <somekool> hi there
[19:48] <somekool> seems like make-kpkg is missing in Natty
[19:48] <BlackDalek> How do I stream webcam over LAN with the current version VLC? Online instructions for doing this apparently don't exist. There are only instructions for doing this with the old version of VLC, which has a totally different GUI or using a windoze wizard... How do I do this using the current version GUI?

[19:50] <PythonSnake> Hi again
[19:51] <kalvin> is there any way to reload the network/interfaces? I append a new interface and I wanna put it in work
[19:51] <kalvin> ubuntu 10.04 server
[19:51] <PythonSnake> Why do people use 10.04 ..
[19:51] <noisewaterphd> lts
[19:51] <Pici> !lts | PythonSnake
[19:52] <kalvin> PythonSnake: LTS
[19:52] <PythonSnake> And 11.04 is not lts ?
[19:52] <Pici> PythonSnake: No.
[19:53] <jasim> hi
[19:53] <PythonSnake> How many years it'll be supported ?
[19:53] <Pici> PythonSnake: LTSes are released every two years. 12.04 will be the next LTS.
[19:53] <Pici> PythonSnake: 18 Months.
[19:53] <PythonSnake> Why does it matter ?
[19:53] <PythonSnake> I can update version ..
[19:54] <BlackDalek> in the old VLC it was like you could just open a capture device and tick the "stream" box and choose a protocol and you were away.... Now you have to go to streaming and fill out multiple pages of forms and questions which no human could ever understand except the programmer who made it. So.. does anyone here know how to stream webcam over a LAN in VLC?
[19:54] <vividshock> I need help
[19:55] <guntbert> kalvin: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[19:55] <Dbl_Tap> vividshock: just ask your question
[19:55] <vividshock> Ok uhh
[19:55] <kalvin> guntbert: it will restart all interfaces
[19:55] <vividshock> Trying to install lubuntu on my laptop
[19:55] <kalvin> guntbert: and it's deprecated way
[19:55] <Shinydan> what's the easiest way to check CPU temperature? x86 architecture, Natty.
[19:55] <vividshock> but the thing is it has only 224 MB of ram
[19:55] <kalvin> guntbert: I want in a upstart way
[19:56] <vividshock> So I let it run on a live cd i burned and tried to run it off disc to check if it can even start on my laptop but its stuck at loading screen
[19:57] <guntbert> kalvin: you asked for "reload the network/interfaces"
[19:58] <BlackDalek> I have to go............ if anyone at all knows how to stream webcam over a LAN using the current VLC user interface, then please PM me. I will be back in about 2 hours

[20:03] <Terabyte> i want to install java runtime on a server. any advice other than just sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[20:03] <Terabyte> i don't want the dev kit, just the ability to run jars
[20:04] <photon> let's say I want to backup my file system to DVD storage. I'll need to archive my files and split them into chunks that fit on DVDs. probably something like this: tar -cvpz <put other options here> / | split -d -b 3900m - /name/of/backup.tar.gz  .... is there any way to make sure that ‘split’ waits for a pressed key or something after each created chunk? so that I can burn it to disk and delete it before continuing, thus not requiring a whole lot
[20:04] <photon> of disk space for the backup archive?
[20:05] <Terabyte> to put it another way, that sun-java6-jre is obsolete, where's the new one
[20:09] <ohir> photon: dumping nowadays' file systems on dvd makes no sense. For system backup all you need is list of packages you frequently use, your /etc and /home/you
[20:10] <ohir> photon: for gui backups search ubuntu forums

[20:22] <TrevInc> I do! It didn't really work
[20:22] <mecho> aa yea it dooo i vedeo skype every night
[20:23] <mimico> mecho: how is the video quality?
[20:24] <mimico> I have it in a virtual machine using the LTS and it is very choppy...
[20:24] <mimico> I am wondering if it's because it's a vm...
[20:24] <TrevInc> mimico: undoubtedly
[20:25] <TrevInc> try Wubi
[20:25] <mimico> Being able to set up skype well is the deciding factor here.
[20:25] <mimico> what's Wubi?

[20:27] <mimico> hmmm.  Just want to get rid of the Vista all together.  So the decision is between Ubuntu LTS or Windows 7.
[20:27] <PythonSnake> mimico: Ubuntu
[20:27] <mimico> I just put it on my vm as a demonstration for the person...
[20:27] <tertl3> mimico, why not dual boot?
[20:28] <mimico> tertl3: Because she hates the Vista.
[20:28] <neo21> mimico if you are on intel you should be safe switching to ubuntu
[20:28] <mimico> neo21: So the skype will work well on intel in Ubuntu?
[20:28] <tertl3> well, ok
[20:29] <neo21> mimico: do you have a notebook or desktop?
[20:30] <GaveUp> trying to set ulimit -c unlimited on a non-root account but the setting doesn't take ... is there some file/other setting that needs to be changed to enable core dumps?
[20:37] <stowoda> hi.
[20:37] <tertl3> hello
[20:37] <edbian> hello
[20:38] <stowoda> can I rename /home/luk/Dokumente/ to .../EigeneDateien/ ?
[20:38] <edbian> Yes
[20:38] <stowoda> because in /home/luk/.. there are two directories named: Dokumente & Downloads
[20:39] <MK``> Ok, I need help. On occasion I get this strange bug where it doesn't seem my clicks register in windows I have open. The keyboard works fine, and when I switch to another workspace everything works as normal, but when I return to the affected workspace this continues seemingly randomly. It's not the touchpad, any idea what the problem is?
[20:39] <photon> stowoda: sure, you can do that, just make sure you don't rename your home folder /home/luk/
[20:39] <stowoda> every time I want to autocomplete after just typing a "D" i have to add the next letters
[20:39] <stowoda> photon, will all the software notice that change?
[20:40] <stowoda> hmm or maybe I just rename the Download dir..
[20:40] <stowoda> and tell firefox to store downloads elswhere..
[20:40] <Dbl_Tap> stowoda: just touble tab it will list available options. There are multiple folders or files that start with D is all.
[20:40] <jiltdil> stowoda
[20:40] <photon> stowoda: software will probably not notice it, but with most software the download directories won't be hardwired, but can be set somewhere in preferences.
[20:40] <stowoda> understand..
[20:41] <Triscar0> when i installed ubuntu 10.04.2 i configuered the network, but now when i booted up for first time, i can not ping a network ip or anything? cant update
[20:41] <guntbert> stowoda: rename it to downloads ... (linux is case sensitive)
[20:41] <stowoda> yeah, thought about that too
[20:41] <jiltdil> stowoda:make softlink
[20:41] <photon> or that, yes
[20:41] <aquarat> has anyone had an issue where they've been playing music or watching flash under Ubuntu and pitch has changed ?
[20:41] <stowoda> but thats not the perfect way.. one dir will begin with capital and the other one with small letters
[20:41] <aquarat> as in, the pitch changes every 30 seconds or so
[20:42] <stowoda> jillsmitt, softlink?
[20:42] <stowoda> whats that?
[20:42] <photon> stowoda: ln -s
[20:42] <photon> stowoda: man ln
[20:42] <porchmonkey> my browser will only play youtube audio when i launch it from a root shell. how do i fix it
[20:42] <aquarat> symbolic link
[20:42] <stowoda> ok, will look in that direction
[20:42] <stowoda> thanks
[20:44] <porchmonkey> jillsmitt: you mean symlink don'tcha
[20:44] <stowoda> ln -s  is a perfect solution
[20:44] <stowoda> :)
[20:44] <stowoda> thank You
[20:44] <photon> yw
[20:44] <jiltdil> welcome
[20:44] <Salt_water> Hello
[20:45] <porchmonkey> hi
[20:45] <Salt_water> not sleeping?
[20:46] <porchmonkey> o.O
[20:46] <oCean> Salt_water: do you have a support question?
[20:46] <Salt_water> yes :)
[20:46] <Salt_water> knoppix+flashplugin
[20:46] <Salt_water> :)
[20:46] <oCean> Salt_water: this channel is about ubuntu, not knoppix
[20:47] <Salt_water> I know :(
[20:47] <oCean> Salt_water: so this is not the right place to ask
[20:47] <Salt_water> but everybody is sleeping in the knoppix channel
[20:47] <starsinmypockets> Greetings.. I just opened a linode VPS running under Ubuntu - what directory is served to the web?
[20:47] <oCean> Salt_water: and in #ubuntu-bg ?
[20:48] <adub> how on earth can i run a command to setup a hidden ssid connection for wpa2 i have tried most everything i know
[20:48] <Salt_water> I will try there
[20:48] <adub> like i assume i have to iwconfig wlan0 essid nameofssidforap
[20:49] <oCean> Salt_water: actually, it is offtopic there too, but they might point you to a better suited channel than this one. Thanks for understanding
[20:49] <adub> then beyond that im lost i have tired to use wpa_supplicant i can bring my ap up on linux via other ways
[20:49] <adub> like if ssid is not hidden it is no problem for me to connect
[20:49] <porchmonkey> wpa_supplicant AFAIK handles all that
[20:49] <Salt_water> I see, thank you anyway
[20:49] <adub> ya i have tried
[20:49] <Salt_water> and have a good night
[20:50] <Triscar0> what is the command to get ip on my ubuntu box ?
[20:50] <porchmonkey> Salt_water: your plugins for flash ought to be in the mozilla plugins directory, whereis mozilla
[20:50] <Triscar0> ifconfig shows that its not connected to network
[20:50] <edbian> Triscar0: ip addr
[20:51] <edbian> Triscar0: If you're not connected you don't have an IP address...
[20:51] <Salt_water> I am using iceweasel actually
[20:51] <porchmonkey> Salt_water: and you can have more than one and choose it in update-alternatives --config
[20:51] <johnadam> what's a good channel to ask visual studio questions?
[20:51] <porchmonkey> Salt_water: i use the mozilla-plugin-gnash package
[20:51] <oCean> porchmonkey: it's knoppix, it's offtopic here
[20:51] <Triscar0> edbian, i want it to get ip from the router
[20:51] <edbian> Triscar0: wired or wireless ?
[20:51] <photon> I have a list of hundreds of URLs which I intend to use with ‘wget -i’. Is there any way to find out the total amount of bytes of all those files before hand? something like wget, but which does not download the file, but only checks its size?
[20:51] <Triscar0> wired
[20:52] <Triscar0> i configed it on install but dont work now?
[20:52] <edbian> Triscar0: plug the cable into the router.  It should work.
[20:52] <edbian> Triscar0: does it not?
[20:52] <stowoda> photon, just one question.. are the links permanent?
[20:52] <Loreley> My ubuntu cannot see the built in webcam. At least it looks like.
[20:52] <photon> stowoda: yes
[20:52] <stowoda> ok
[20:52] <Salt_water> I am trying to install it now
[20:53] <stowoda> thx
[20:53] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: which ip are you looking for
[20:53] <photon> stowoda: depends on what you mean by permanent, though.
[20:53] <photon> stowoda: it's just an entry that says "if you enter this directory, really enter my target"
[20:53] <Loreley> I have a second HP 625, where I can use my webcam in cheese and Skype. What can I try to make it work?
[20:53] <photon> stowoda: if you move the target directory/file, the link is broken
[20:53] <Loreley> (Both computers shall be the same)
[20:53] <Triscar0> i want to get the computer online and connected to the network
[20:54] <Triscar0> 192.168.0.blablabla
[20:54] <TheMatrix3000> is it possible to do a "sudo cp /home/defaultuser/Desktop/* /home/$USER/Desktop/
[20:54] <dimas_> i installed idjc-0.8.4 that come with ubuntu 10.4 but i a having problems to connect to the jack so i have been reading around and i found in the source project that is a new version but when i try install it from the same page it tell me that a file is missing...anyhow i want to know if there is a way i can get the package update to my available programs so i use the installer from ubuntu
[20:55] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: did you try ip ro
[20:55] <aquarat> you'd want to add in -r (for recursive) and -v (verbose)
[20:55] <stowoda> photon, permanent in means of presistent after a reboot
[20:55] <photon> stowoda: yes
[20:55] <aquarat> and there's an argument for preserve attributes too
[20:55] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: yes, why not?
[20:55] <stowoda> ok thats fine
[20:55] <Triscar0> porchmonkey, tryed now, nothing happend
[20:55] <olewolf> Hi. I'm having problems setting up an LDAP directory in Evolution. On the command-line, ldapsearch -x -h crtdir.certifikat.dk -b "c=DK" "(mail=wolf@blazingangles.com)" shows that I can indeed query the directory. Evolution won't search the database, however; how can I trouble-shoot it?
[20:56] <olewolf> I should perhaps add that Thunderbird is able to search the directory.
[20:56] <aquarat> cp --help : "-a, --archive                same as -dR --preserve=all"
[20:56] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: well what you want to do from what i know is ask dhcp to give you a random ip and then note the nameservers if from what i understand you are setting up static
[20:57] <Triscar0> DHCP
[20:57] <porchmonkey> dhclient <device>
[20:59] <pillowrice> i have an old macbook pro (2005 vintage). Anyone tried installing ubuntu on such a machine, or know how well the hardware is supported?
 I installed it but it is not ok
[20:59] <Salt_water> blinking and loading
[20:59] <oCean> Salt_water: please drop the discussion here
[21:00] <Triscar0> porchmonkey, dhclient eth1 ?
[21:00] <Salt_water> ok
[21:00] <Salt_water> thank you guys
[21:00] <Salt_water> anyway
[21:00] <Triscar0> im soo tired of this now, the pc will go out the window in seconds...
[21:00] <Triscar0> have been trying to get linux on this pc all day, always something...
[21:01] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: take it easy big fella
[21:02] <djr013> Any ideas how I can get boinc to be scheduled as low (idle) priority? Even at nice 19 it's taking up half the processor time.
[21:02] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: why dont you just move the router and modem in near your linux box and wire
[21:02] <TheMatrix3000> is it possible to do a "sudo cp /home/defaultuser/Desktop/* /home/$USER/Desktop/" and have it copy data to all users
[21:02] <TheMatrix3000> or how would i copy from one Desktop folder to everyones desktop folder
[21:02] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: wireless is always a pain in the ass
[21:02] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: You'd have to make a script to do more than one user
[21:02] <djr013> Someone mentioned something on processing grouping before but no idea how that works.
[21:03] <somekool> trism: thanks ! maybe thats because I started from a bootstrap. I will run apt-cache update again
[21:03] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: but basically you want to put the device up, ifconfig <device> up
[21:03] <tripelb> how do I tell what version of adobe flash I have?  I should know how.. but I dont.
[21:04] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: configure it and then get dhclient to give you an ip which you can set dynamically or static in /etc/network/interfaces
[21:04] <whitehat> hello group.  i'm having difficulty restarting ssh.  sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart   returns...  Rathaer than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d.......  I"m running 11.04
[21:04] <porchmonkey> or just issue commands until you get it
[21:04] <djr013> tripelb: Adobe has a version check on their site...somewhere.
[21:05] <Bloodboil> Hey hey, finally got this Ubuntu up and running, now as I'm using ubuntu for the first time, (in fact it's my first linux ever) could anyone recomend me some kind of security stuff etc?
[21:05] <djr013> tripelb: Otherwise you could check the package version with a package manager. You /might/ also have a Flash config utility installed automatically with Flash that you could check.
[21:05] <edbian> Bloodboil: What do you mean 'security stuff' ?
[21:05] <Triscar0> porchmonkey, now it got ip, but now i tryed to connect to it wit putty from my windows computer, and it refuses my conection ?
[21:06] <guntbert> whitehat: it is sshd
[21:06] <Bloodboil> As in firewalls, anti-virus etc etc. Mainly firewall thought
[21:06] <edbian> Bloodboil: You don't need them :)
[21:06] <Bloodboil> O.o you're kidding me?
[21:06] <whitehat> guntbert: yes,  however in /etc/init.d  is is ssh i.e. /etc/init.d/ssh
[21:06] <edbian> Bloodboil: Most people on linux do not run either.
[21:06] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: open your router panel and open the port on the ip it assigned u
[21:06] <edbian> Bloodboil: This might start a flame war
[21:06] <guntbert> !av | Bloodboil
[21:07] <vash> I only use an anti-virus to scan my windows partition
[21:07] <edbian> Bloodboil: Some people do run a firewall and will argue it is necessary but it is much less necessary on linux (arguably not at all) then it is on Windows
[21:07] <pillowrice> if i want to install ubuntu on a macbook pro, do i need boot camp?
[21:07] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: if you ip ro, you will have the gateway = your router panel and the other number is the ip dhclient assigned you which you need to go into the gateway address by connecting to it from a browser on port 80.. then go to port triggering
[21:08] <Bloodboil> I see, well thanks for that edbian. Now I just need to get myself rid of this number 1 caused by ccc... Wonder how this super user stuff works.
[21:08] <edbian> Bloodboil: The difference is you're running almost 100% open source software.  All of your software comes from repos with trusted moderators.  This means malicious software is extremely rare
[21:08] <edbian> Bloodboil: ccc ?
[21:08] <porchmonkey> and input the number it issued you.. ssh ought be port 22 if i'm not mistaken
[21:09] <edbian> Bloodboil: superuser (root) is the account that can do everything.  In Ubuntu you access super user using sudo
[21:09] <guntbert> whitehat: try sudo restart ssh
[21:10] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: but you can open them all just to be safe and you will in the future want to make your linux boot up with a static address as opposed to having dhclient issue you whichever is next in line
[21:10] <Triscar0> porchmonkey, when i use sudo apt-get update. does it install the updates also or only download them? it whent soo fast. 132 packeges can be updated.
[21:10] <whitehat> guntbert: sudo service ssh restart returns the error "restart: unknown instance:
[21:11] <whitehat> is upstart the current sysV utility in ubuntu?
[21:11] <guntbert> whitehat: no,  not the "service..." way, yes upstart is on the way...
[21:12] <Sidewinder1> Bloodboil, You might find this of particular interest: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=338
[21:12] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: you've got the carriage before the horse, update will update what is available and then compared to what is on your system tell you what is available for upgrade
[21:13] <porchmonkey> Triscar0:you can use apt-get to download packages only and do dry runs or simulated runs etc. you basically have is a note saying here is what is available to upgrade.
[21:13] <whitehat> guntbert: http://paste.ubuntu.com/634532/
[21:14] <Triscar0> i have the server in dmz mode on the router so all the ports are open, but can still not putty <IP_ADDRESS> with port 22 in putty
[21:14] <ttiicc> I just installed ubuntu 11.04 and would like to have windows 7 as the default boot option in the splash screen! how could I fix this?
[21:14] <TheMatrix3000> i want to create a desktop link when a user logs in, how can i do that
[21:15] <TheMatrix3000> i just want to copy a file to every users directory
[21:15] <TheMatrix3000> every users home directory
[21:15] <djr013> ttiicc: Google "configure grub2 default boot".
[21:15] <porchmonkey> Triscar0: not positive but i belive you should go into port triggering and tell it specifically where to send the signal, dmz i vaguely remember isnt going to get you all the way there. look under gaming
[21:15] <tripelb> djr013, I dont know how to check a package version or what a package manager is.I have this Adobe Flash Player plugin version 10
[21:15] <jiltdil> whitecat: did you tried at the first time sudo service ssh  start
[21:16] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: Do you want to copy it once or make them all the same?
[21:16] <tripelb> sorry
[21:16] <guntbert> whitehat: strange, what does status ssh  tell?
[21:16] <ttiicc> djr013 thanks
[21:16] <whitehat> guntbert: i don't have "status" as a command
[21:17] <whitehat> guntbert: status ssh -> ssh stop/waiting
[21:17] <guntbert> whitehat: then it is not running, try sudo start ssh
[21:18] <jiltdil> whitecat:look i have  told you above
[21:18] <TheMatrix3000> i want to copy it once
[21:18] <whitehat> guntbert: sudo start ssh -> ssh stop/pre-start, process 3041
[21:18] <tripelb> djr013, sorry that line was trash. I found it. "That is the first time I've done anything useful with Synaptic in all the year/s I've been using Ubuntu" finally. (I use apt-get)
[21:19] <TheMatrix3000> i just upgraded to 11.04 and have to change everyones desktop link from openoffice to libreoffice
[21:19] <djr013> tripelb: Also this might help, not sure if it's right though: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[21:19] <TheMatrix3000> i did a find -name and removed all the openoffice links
[21:20] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: i just need to copy the libreoffice links to everyone now
[21:20] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: You can copy them once and be done with it?
[21:20] <monokrome> Hey. Does anyone here know how to sync your iPhone to Ubuntu 11?
[21:20] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: How many users you got?
[21:20] <guntbert> whitehat: and now sudo status ssh?
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: yes
[21:21] <whitehat> guntbert: sudo status ssh -> ssh stop/waiting
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: basically i just need to put the new shortcut in everyones desktop
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: i already modified /etc/skel/ for new users
[21:21] <Triscar0> porchmonkey, dident work. connect with ftp port 21 dont work either
[21:21] <Wayland> hey, how can i bring up the ubuntu update window again?
[21:21] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: How many users you got?
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: just need to change the current users
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> 70
[21:21] <jiltdil> whitehat:sudo service ssh start
[21:21] <TheMatrix3000> edbian: 70 users
[21:22] <guntbert> whitehat: strange, here it works as expected, did your sshd run before?
[21:22] <whitehat> jiltdil: sudo service ssh start -> ssh stop/pre-start, process 3354
[21:22] <jjovereats> hello. I am having backup woes again. I am earmarking files for short term DVD backup, to transfer to the PBell.
[21:22] <edbian> TheMatrix3000: That's a lot.  Hang on while I figure out the bash script we need to write
[21:22] <jiltdil> whitehatnow  :sudo service ssh restart
[21:23] <whitehat> guntbert: yes.  i think it may have to do with some of the upstart/sysv /etc/int.d issues and thus the error
[21:23] <jiltdil> whitehat  :now what it tellssudo service ssh restart
[21:23] <jiltdil> whitehat  :now what it tells sudo service ssh restart
[21:23] <djr013> Any ideas how I can get boinc to be scheduled as low (idle) priority? Even at nice 19 it's taking up half the processor time.
[21:24] <TheMatrix3000> i wish i could do a /home/*/Desktop but that does not work
[21:24] <TheMatrix3000> lol
[21:24] <whitehat> jiltdil: sudo service ssh start -> ssh stop/pre-start, process 3544
[21:24] <djr013> TheMatrix3000: No symlinking, either?
