[05:24] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: you'll have to get some information
[05:24] <elizabeth> what information?
[05:24] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: you'll need to open a terminal, and type some commands
[05:24] <elizabeth> open a terminal?
[05:24] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: yes
[05:24] <tensorpudding> it's a program
[05:24] <elizabeth> how do i do that?
[05:24] <tensorpudding> it's called Terminal
[05:24] <tensorpudding> you'll find it in applications
[05:25] <AlessonZaire> control+alt+T
[05:25] <laiboo> why i can't install PDFLaTex and LaTeX ?
[05:25] <elizabeth> ok got the terminal
[05:25] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: okay, type 'lsusb'
[05:25] <elizabeth> then what
[05:26] <tensorpudding> hit enter
[05:26] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it'll write a bunch of stuff, information about all the parts of your computer, including your webcam
[05:26] <elizabeth> it wrote three devices
[05:26] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: do you know what version of ubuntu you have?
[05:27] <elizabeth> no but i have skype 2.0 on here that he downloaded for me
[05:27] <elizabeth> if that helps any
[05:27] <kwixson_u> Dumb question: how do I mount a SD card I just stuck into my netbook?
[05:27] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: do you see your webcame there?
[05:27] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: in the devices
[05:28] <elizabeth> yes i saw the webcam name there. well not the actual web cam name but its a device called webcam
[05:28] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: okay
[05:28] <kwixson_u> It sometimes just pops up on my desktop. This time it doesn't.
[05:28] <tensorpudding> what's the ID
[05:28] <elizabeth> 0ac8:3420
[05:28] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it'll look like four characters, then a :, then four numbers
[05:28] <milamber> kwixson_u: this will tell you where the filesystem is: sudo fdisk -l
[05:28] <tensorpudding> huh
[05:29] <milamber> kwixson_u: then you will have to create a directory and mount the fs there
[05:29] <tensorpudding> that should be supported by skype
[05:29] <tensorpudding> which version of skype do you have
[05:29] <elizabeth> 2.0
[05:29] <tensorpudding> open skype and check the about
[05:29] <tensorpudding> having a newer version is better
[05:29] <elizabeth> ok can i get it on this lap top that is from 1999?
[05:29] <elizabeth> lol
[05:30] <tensorpudding> i need a more detailed version
[05:30] <tensorpudding> like, <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:30] <tensorpudding> i think it would be in the help -> about, or something
[05:30] <tensorpudding> i don't use skype
[05:30] <kwixson_u> when doing the sudo fdisk -l command how do I distinguish between devices/drives
[05:31] <tensorpudding> if it doesn't say, well, maybe it's just not new enough
[05:31] <tensorpudding> skype is up to 2.2
[05:31] <milamber> kwixson_u: the easiest way for you will probably be the fs type
[05:31] <elizabeth> so can i get a newer version of skype for this ancient computer? or
[05:32] <RvPup> anyone on tonight thats good with install foulups?
[05:32] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: probably
[05:32] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: what version of ubuntu is it
[05:32] <elizabeth> i still dont know that
[05:32] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: open up System Monitor
[05:32] <elizabeth> how do i find that one out?
[05:32] <elizabeth> where is system monitor?
[05:32] <milamber> kwixson_u: you can also run the command: df to compare the devices listed to the mount points. and the fs on the card is probably going to be some sort of fat vs the ext3/4 linux
[05:32] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it should be under applications
[05:33] <tensorpudding> if your laptop is that old, your grandfather might have put a rather old version of ubuntu on it
[05:33] <tensorpudding> you might want a newer one
[05:33] <elizabeth> i wish i knew how to get a newer version of it.
[05:33] <elizabeth> i cant find a system monitor.
[05:33] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade
[05:33] <tensorpudding> depending on which version you have, you might easily upgrade
[05:34] <elizabeth> so what version do i want?
[05:35] <ActionParsnip> elizabeth: what cpu and ram does the system have?
[05:35] <kwixson_u> milamber: The df command shows me only the native filesystem and one of the two (the one that is always in this netbook) SD cards I have stuck into the machine.
[05:35] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: i think it's under Applications -> System
[05:35] <elizabeth> cpu? ram?
[05:35] <milamber> tensorpudding: lsb_release -r  ??
[05:35] <kwixson_u> No mention of the 2nd.
[05:35] <milamber> kwixson_u: can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l and df?
[05:36] <AlessonZaire> It might be not so wise to upgrade at this moment, some people are complaining the newest kernel version is having battery problems with notebooks
[05:36] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: given the age of your machine, it's not going to be able to run the newest
[05:36] <elizabeth> so what does that mean?
[05:36] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: did you find System Monitor in the System submenu of Applications?
[05:36] <crash1hd> Can anyone tell me what the limitations are for a wubi install?
[05:37] <crash1hd> if any
[05:37] <ActionParsnip> Elizabeth: how fast is the cpu? How much ram does it have? If it has a make and model then what is it and we can use that to find out :-)
[05:37] <milamber> kwixson_u: then the fs (usually sd something) that is listed on the fdisk, but not the df is the one that still needs to be mounted
[05:37] <AlessonZaire> crash1hd none :D
[05:37] <tensorpudding> ActionParsnip: she doesn't know about computers, it's a compaq presario 700
[05:37] <AlessonZaire> <- is on a wubi install now
[05:37] <crash1hd> Would I be able to use wine without issue?
[05:37] <tensorpudding> ActionParsnip: they used amd durons, and had about 256 MB of RAM in default config
[05:37] <AlessonZaire> crash1hd yes, I use wine perfectly on a wubi install
[05:37] <AlessonZaire> It even runs world of warcraft lol
[05:37] <crash1hd> Cool
[05:37] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: same as a regular install. The ubuntu drive is just stored in a f
[05:38] <kwixson_u> http://paste.ubuntu.com/683134/
[05:38] <crash1hd> how about if I choose to give it dedicated hdd space later? can I transfer it or do I have to reinstall?
[05:38] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: if you can't find system monitor, try typing lsb_release -r into the terminal you have open, and tell me what it says
[05:39] <UbuN2> damn
[05:39] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: you won't be able to access the ubuntu data from windows but the wubi will be able to access the windows data from /host
[05:39] <kwixson_u> http://paste.ubuntu.com/683135/
[05:39] <elizabeth> it said no lsb modules are available
[05:39] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, ahh that makes sense
[05:39] <AlessonZaire> crash1hd the only difference is that you'll have the ubuntu data and windows data at the same partition, which I find to be quite convenient, but it's always your choice
[05:40] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: what about lsb_release -a
[05:40] <ActionParsnip> crash1hd: there is a wubi to real install method, I've not done it personally
[05:40] <arooni-mobile> help!  inserted a microsd card via sd card adapter into my thinkpad t420 running 11.04 ubuntu.  nothing happens and i'd like my photos! :P
[05:41] <elizabeth> i have ubuntu 11.04
[05:41] <crash1hd> ActionParsnip, good to know :)
[05:41] <crash1hd> thanks
[05:41] <UbuN2> nice!
[05:41] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: really?
[05:41] <ActionParsnip> Elizabeth: or:   cat /etc/lsb-release
[05:41] <elizabeth> yeah is that good
[05:41] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: that's the newest version
[05:41] <kwixson_u> arooni-mobile: getting help with essentially the same problem myself.
[05:41] <elizabeth> well crap why isnt my cam working? lol
[05:41] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: so it's somewhat strange
[05:41] <milamber> kwixson_u: it doesn't look like the machine recognizes it at all. can you eject and reinstall, then run dmesg ?
[05:41] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: i think the version of skype available in ubuntu 11.04 is newer than the one you say you have
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> arooni-mobile: does it pick up if you boot with it all plugged in?
[05:42] <UbuN2> did u install a .deb file elizabeth ?
[05:42] <tensorpudding> UbuN2: she didn't install it, her grandfather did...
[05:42] <arooni-mobile> ActionParsnip, havent tried that
[05:42] <UbuN2> ah!
[05:42] <elizabeth> it says skype 2.2 beta for linux.
[05:42] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: try opening the Ubuntu Software Center, and search for skype
[05:42] <UbuN2> then its latest
[05:43] <elizabeth> where do i find the software center
[05:43] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: you said 2.0 earlier
[05:43] <elizabeth> lol
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> elizabeth: if you install and run cheese, do you see yourself?
[05:43] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it's a program
[05:43] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it'll be under applications
[05:43] <chris4916_> NICK chris4916
[05:43] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: you want to search for and install a programm called cheese, it's an alternative to skype
[05:44] <solofight> thanks guys adobe 10 has corrected this error of replacing the opened file with the new one
[05:44] <UbuN2> wht happens when elizabeth executes skype ?!
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> Except doesnt make calls
[05:44] <elizabeth> exactally what happens when i get rid of skype? and can i talk to people on skype with cheese?
[05:44] <tensorpudding> yes, it can use your webcam to do other things
[05:44] <tensorpudding> no
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> solofight: adobe 10 doesnt exist
[05:44] <tensorpudding> but it does use your webcam
[05:45] <UbuN2> does skype work ?
[05:45] <tensorpudding> if cheese works and skype doesn't it might tell us what the issue is
[05:45] <elizabeth> well my family only has skype.
[05:45] <elizabeth> oh ok so i have to find cheese program thing to try it out
[05:45] <elizabeth> where do i find that
[05:45] <kwixson_u> milamber: http://paste.ubuntu.com/683139/
[05:45] <solofight> ActionParsnip: what !  just now i installed Adobe acrobat X
[05:45] <tensorpudding> you need to open the software center, like i said
[05:45] <UbuN2> does skype work ? <[05:45] <tensorpudding> and search for cheese
[05:45] <elizabeth> i dk where the software center is.
[05:46] <elizabeth> and yeah skype the typing part works but my cam and mic dont.
[05:46] <elizabeth> its a usb cam
[05:46] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it's in applications
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> elizabeth: skype is notoriously bad at stuff, webcams will often work in other apps and not skype. There are extra steps to take to make it work.
[05:46] <UbuN2> ^^
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> Elizabeth: sudo apt-get install cheese
[05:47] <elizabeth> i am not even seeing an applications option either. i see accesories and thats pretty much it
[05:47] <terr_> ActionParsnip: just jumpin in.  Give me something better than skype
[05:47] <solofight> what software ubuntu uses by default to handle pdf files ?
[05:47] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it's at the bottom
[05:47] <elizabeth> my grandpa put a bit torrent on here would that wokr
[05:47] <UbuN2> applications > sound & video > cheese booth webcam
[05:47] <tensorpudding> no
[05:47] <elizabeth> its at the bottom of what
[05:47] <UbuN2> does it work elizabeth
[05:48] <elizabeth> does what work?
[05:48] <UbuN2> applications > sound & video > cheese booth webcam
[05:48] <tensorpudding> it's not going to work, because cheese won't be installed already...
[05:48] <ActionParsnip> solofight: aaah. Adobe ACROBAT 10. That does exist, however "adobe 10" does not. Do people run "Microsoft 7" as their OS too?
[05:48] <elizabeth> where is applications at the bottom of what?
[05:48] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it's at the bottom of the applications menu
[05:48] <zay> dear all
[05:48] <zay> can I put on the system configuration remastered with remastersys
[05:48] <RvPup> if i tried to do a full install to the 2nd hard drive (sdb1) and now sda1 only has 3 files in it ....something went wrong huh?
[05:49] <elizabeth> let me put this a little more into perspective for you. i am a blonde who knows horses not computers lol.
[05:50] <elizabeth> i cant find applications anywere
[05:50] <terr_> elizabeth: my gf knows more than you
[05:50] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: what's at the top-left of the screen
[05:50] <solofight> ActionParsnip: yes people run ms 7 as their os in cases they want to utilize ms office 2007's excellent features
[05:50] <elizabeth> this chat window
[05:50] <ActionParsnip> Elizabeth: i gave a command to run in terminal, did it run ok?
[05:50] <zay> I want to remaster the results can directly connect to ldap server
[05:50] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: no, on the big bar on the top of the screen
[05:50] <zay> any body can help me
[05:50] <elizabeth> for the chat window?
[05:50] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: is there a menu saying Applications, or is there a button with a ring-shaped logo in it?
[05:51] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: above the chat window
[05:51] <solofight> why dont somebody take her system remotely and help elizabeth ? that would save everybody lots of time
[05:51] <solofight> ?
[05:51] <ActionParsnip> solofight: no, it Microsoft WINDOWS 7. "Microsoft 7" doesn't exist either.
[05:51] <elizabeth> there is nothing above the chat window. its just the chat window and my background
[05:52] <solofight> ActionParsnip: forgive me for that
[05:52] <tensorpudding> oh christ, you might not even be using gnome
[05:52] <elizabeth> no it says xchat
[05:52] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: what happens when you hit the Print Screen key
[05:52] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it should take a screenshot of your desktop
[05:52] <elizabeth> nothing
[05:52] <tensorpudding> okay, you're not using gnome
[05:52] <zruty> I have a SMB share defined for  alocal user, how does that user connect to it with Win?
[05:53] <tensorpudding> and unless i know what you're using it's hard to help you
[05:53] <elizabeth> i didnt see any change when i hit prntscrn
[05:53] <tensorpudding> how are you opening programs
[05:53] <solofight> elizabeth: allow somebody here to take your system remotely and help you, it will be over before you know it
[05:53] <elizabeth> with my start menu i dk.
[05:53] <tensorpudding> start...menu?
[05:53] <solofight> whats dk ?
[05:53] <tensorpudding> oh
[05:53] <tensorpudding> what is at the bottom left of your screen?
[05:53] <ActionParsnip> Elizabeth: copy this command: sudo apt-get install cheese        press Ctrl+Alt+T   and paste the command into the terminal. Type your password (you will get no feedback) and hit enter to finish
[05:54] <elizabeth> yeah the little circle at the bottom looks like an airplain going throught it
[05:54] <tensorpudding> like a K?
[05:54] <elizabeth> one on its face kinda
[05:54] <elizabeth> yeah i can see how it would look like a k on its face
[05:54] <ActionParsnip> solofight: its cool, just makes support easier when you use full product names
[05:54] <tensorpudding> okay, so you're using kde instead..
[05:55] <elizabeth> whats kde?
[05:55] <tensorpudding> does kde have the software center?
[05:55] <solofight> #kubuntu ?
[05:55] <tensorpudding> it doesn't matter
[05:56] <solofight> clear
[05:56] <tensorpudding> just go to the terminal
[05:56] <tensorpudding> and do 'sudo apt-get install cheese'
[05:56] <solofight> damn wrong window
[05:56] <UbuN2> lol
[05:56] <kwixson_u> Any love for my SD mounting problem?
[05:57] <elizabeth> its spitting out a bunch of info.
[05:58] <UbuN2> yes its getting the software
[05:58] <elizabeth> its asking if i want to continue?
[05:58] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: yes
[05:58] <tensorpudding> it'll ask for a password
[05:58] <tensorpudding> use the one that you login with
[05:58] <elizabeth> it already asked for my password
[05:58] <rodhash> Hi guys.. In lauchpad site how can I download the file 102-disable-page-flipping-v2.patch for my intel driver?
[05:59] <rodhash> I'm not finding it
[05:59] <elizabeth> ok now its done spitting out stuff and is asking for another command
[05:59] <UbuN2> open it rodhash and click file save as on browser
[05:59] <elizabeth> like before i asked it to install cheese
[06:00] <rodhash> UbuN2: My problem is to find it
[06:01] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: okay, that means that cheese is installed
[06:01] <elizabeth> ok how do i run it
[06:01] <elizabeth> to see what the problem with my web cam and skype is
[06:01] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: it'll be in the menu of applications, search for its name
[06:02] <elizabeth> ok i got cheese kinda
[06:02] <elizabeth> it took a picture of me with out me asking too
[06:02] <tensorpudding> okay
[06:02] <tensorpudding> that means the webcam works with cheese
[06:03] <tensorpudding> if it doesn't work with skype, that's probably a skype issue
[06:03] <tensorpudding> not sure how to fix that
[06:04] <elizabeth> ok thanks anyways. i will talk to my grandpa tomorrow. you guys have been very awesome tonight/today.
[06:04] <tensorpudding> elizabeth: np
[06:04] <tensorpudding> good luck
[06:04] <tensorpudding> sorry i didn't have the answer
[06:04] <elizabeth> thank you
[06:04] <elizabeth> its ok
[06:04] <BoomerBile> is there a way to install ubuntu on a partition while running inside ubuntu?
[06:05] <scarleo> Hi, I cant auth in some places, like in system settings, I know password is correct. sudo is working fine. What is wrong?
[06:05] <rodhash> Guys, any idea?
[06:07] <rodhash> How can I find and download this --> 101_copy-fb.patch 102-disable-page-flipping-v2.patch ?
[06:12] <bullgard4_> Does Ubuntu provide a DEB program package for MySQL Workbench: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL_Workbench?

[06:15] <rodhash> How can I find and download this --> 101_copy-fb.patch 102-disable-page-flipping-v2.patch ?
[06:16] <milamber> !info mysql-workbench-gpl | bullgard4_
[06:18] <milamber> bullgard4_: then i believe not. i use the current from their site
[06:18] <bullgard4_> milamber: Does -gpl stand for General_Public_License?
[06:19] <z3ro3x> I used the alternate cd to install Ubuntu 11.04 into a virtual machine (I'm experimenting here) with /boot as first primary and everything else (swap, /, /home) in an encrypted LVM.  MY question is, if I ever want to do a fresh install in the future as opposed to a upgrade, how do I unlock the encrypted LVM during the setup process and tell it not to reformat /home?  Normally when I do a fresh reinstall I can tell the partition manager
[06:19] <z3ro3x>  not to format /home and I'm good.  But with this new setup it's way more complicated.
[06:19] <milamber> bullgard4_: yes. i thought i got it from the repos, but i have reported several bugs (that have been fixed). so current is probably going to be your best bet.
[06:19] <bullgard4_> milamber: What do you mean by "their"? Do you mean Oracle's website?
[06:21] <milamber> bullgard4_: yes(ish) http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/5.2.html#downloads
[06:22] <crash1hd> ok when dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu is it always best to install windows first?
[06:22] <crash1hd> I want ubuntu to be the primary and windows to be the secondary
[06:22] <Onlyodin> crash1hd, imho, yes.
[06:22] <crash1hd> where ubuntu takes up like 90% of the hdd
[06:22] <crash1hd> thanks :)
[06:22] <Nicolus> is there a tool on linux to check if two files are identical or not ?
[06:22] <bullgard4_> milamber: I still do not know if I should download this package because "The new {MySQL Workbnch} application however still does not support data Migration which was a part of the old tool set."
[06:22] <Onlyodin> Ubuntu can resize your partitions - at least it did when I installed it alongside windows.
[06:23] <crash1hd> I just want windows 7 for some games that might be down the road that I am not able to get working on ubuntu
[06:23] <Onlyodin> Nicolus, md5sum
[06:23] <Nicolus> Onlyodin, sudo apt-get install md5sum ?
[06:23] <crash1hd> Hmm this one might be tricky but how much space should I dedicate to windows7?
[06:23] <zHammeRz> none
[06:24] <zHammeRz> just get rid of it :)
[06:24] <Onlyodin> Nicolus, man md5sum
[06:24] <crash1hd> haha lol
[06:24] <milamber> bullgard4_: i never used the gui tools, so i don't know what you would be missing. are you looking at a migration soon?
[06:24] <crash1hd> Like I said I want it for the few things that I cant get wine to do :)
[06:24] <zHammeRz> can it be done in a v-box?
[06:25] <crash1hd> zHammeRz, no cause I need full hardware support for those few things
[06:25] <Onlyodin> crash1hd, I'd leave at least 20Gb, if not 30Gb. bear in mind Ubuntu can read a Windows/NTFS partition, but Windows wont know what the linux partitions are
[06:25] <crash1hd> zHammeRz,  or I would :)
[06:25] <crash1hd> Onlyodin, right :) thanks
[06:26] <Onlyodin> I used to have my windows partition taking up ~80% of the drive, and I'd store crap on it, so that both environments could access it.
[06:26] <scarleo> Hi, I cant authorize in some places, like in system settings, I know password is correct. sudo is working fine. What is wrong?
[06:26] <milamber> scarleo: what exactly are you trying to do?
[06:26] <scarleo> milamber: editing user groups
[06:27] <bullgard4_> milamber: I'd like to migrate from my embedded HSQLDB to a MySQL database along the lines of http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6924.
[06:27] <scarleo> milamber: when I click advanced button authorization pops up but password dowsn't work
[06:28] <bullgard4_> scarleo: Please be very careful when editing user groups. Back up first.  Please try again
[06:31] <new2net> How can I find a spare core that is not used to handle NIC interruptions?
[06:31] <Radex> hi, somebody know how to run drbd on ec2 kernel? or if it's possible to change kernel from ec2 to server version?
[06:31] <scarleo> milamber: and another window with: You are not allowed to modify system configuration
[06:31] <new2net> in 11.04.*
[06:32] <scarleo> milamber: An error occured: Did not recieve a reply
[06:32] <bwright> What is the easiest way to get gcc 4.7 on ubuntu?
[06:32] <Nicolus> thanks Onlyodin
[06:32] <milamber> bullgard4_: java written database, eh? i have only done csv export and import and it has worked pretty well for me.
[06:33] <dcg__> Hi all, anyone with .asoundrc experience about?
[06:33] <milamber> scarleo: not sure why it is doing that, but a workaround may be to start it from the terminal w/ gksu
[06:33] <Onlyodin> Nicolus, you're welcome.
[06:33] <Nicolus> Onlyodin, see you around :)
[06:35] <bullgard4_> milamber: Yes, my old HSQLDB database is written in Java. I have tried CSV export. This produces bad results because contents in one table field often ends with a quotation mark.

[06:43] <glebihan> cheenu_, you can change this with the "-P" option
[06:44] <cheenu_> glebihan : i can find only the downloaded html file

[06:45] <admiralvorian> hey guys I'm having trouble getting my serial device to act as a keyboard, anyone know how>
[06:46] <admiralvorian> softwedge just crashes :/
[06:48] <cheenu_> even if i copy the URL of the video,only html file is getting downloading
[06:48] <dr-willis> never seen a serial keybord other then ps2 ones. ;)
[06:48] <glebihan> cheenu_, not sure actually, some firefox extensions may help you there
[06:49] <glebihan> cheenu_, I know "Youtube enhancer" (a greasemonkey script) allows you to download videos from youtube
[06:49] <cheenu_> Should we have to install firefox extension?
[06:50] <vehemoth> on the linux line in grub.cfg what does ro mean?
[06:50] <cheenu_> Is youtube enhancer a package????
[06:50] <glebihan> cheenu_, no it's not a a package
[06:50] <dr-willis> vehemoth:  read only perhaps
[06:50] <cheenu_> then how can i download?
[06:50] <cheenu_> any web sites?
[06:50] <glebihan> cheenu_, http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/33042
[06:51] <admiralvorian> anyone know a software wedge for ubuntu?
[06:51] <dr-willis> ff extension page. ;)
[06:51] <cheenu_> ok fine
[06:52] <dr-willis> admiralvorian:  not sure anyone even knows what that is.
[06:52] <admiralvorian> dr-willis, i have an rs232 rfid reader and I need it to output to keystrokes
[06:53] <vehemoth> dr-willis: I don't see how that would make sense, here's an example "linux	/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686 root=/dev/sda2 ro  quiet"
[06:53] <cheenu_> how to use youtube enhancer????need to download it???
[06:54] <dr-willis> vehemoth:  the root fs is mounted read only. rhen remounted rw. so it can get fscked if nweded. i recall
[06:54] <cheenu_> pls give me exact detail since i am the begineer
[06:55] <dr-willis> cheenu_:  if its a ff ectension. go to rhe ff extensions web site and get it.
[06:55] <scarleo> Chromium is extremely slow on my Ubuntu machine, almost complete unusable. It just says "Sendingg request..." forever before loading page. Does anyone have any tips on that?
[06:56] <Lasers> What's wrong with youtube-dl?
[06:56] <vehemoth> dr-willis: okay, so if it didn't already have ro I shouldn't add it
[06:56] <scarleo> Firefox is quick by the way so it feels if it's chromium and not my machine
[06:56] <Lasers> cheenu_: Have you tried "youtube-dl"
[06:56] <vehemoth> dr-willis: I got that from the os-prober section
[06:57] <Lasers> scarleo: Run "htop" and see if Chromium is eating up all the processors. That can happen. (I think because of Flash).
[06:58] <dr-willis> vehemoth: normally you dont edit grub.cfg directly.
[06:58] <scarleo> Lasers: thanks, it's not related to flash, even google.com takes forever
[06:58] <scarleo> Lasers: but I'll check top
[06:59] <dr-willis> scarleo:  try entering the ip address  see if thats also slow.
[06:59] <vehemoth> dr-willis: I know but I had to replace that part from os-prober with a custom one so that I could use hibernate, I didn't know which way was best so I moved the os-prober script and added to 40_custom
[06:59] <Lasers> scarleo: "ping google.com"
[06:59] <dr-willis> also test with a diffrent browser. it sounds like a dns issue.. a weird one
[07:00] <dr-willis> vehemoth:  yep thats a proper way. ;)
[07:00] <cheenu_> ya i tried youtube-dl but also its not coming
[07:00] <dcg__> admiralvorian: I believe there is serial keyboard support available (or at least there used to be :) try searching for "linux serial barcodescanner" and "linux kernel serial keyboard"

[07:05] <killerscript> Hi all !
[07:05] <killerscript> somebody, can help me ?
[07:05] <cheenu_> dr-willis: pls help me
[07:05] <dr-willis> with what killerscript
[07:06] <dr-willis> cheenu_:  find ppa for the app. or try other extensions
[07:06] <dr-willis> !ppa
[07:07] <killerscript> I installed the kernel 3.03  on my ubuntu 11.04  but maybe this has a probles with video
[07:07] <killerscript> I had the kernel 2.6
[07:07] <cheenu_> am new to ubuntu...i dont know wat is ppa
[07:08] <dr-willis> dare we ask you nweded the new kernel killerscript
[07:08] <dr-willis> cheenu_:  read what the bot said abve about ppas
[07:10] <killerscript> I before had compiled other kernels with successful
[07:11] <killerscript> I like to test the versions of new kernels
[07:11] <cheenu_> sorry....pls tell me the command to download
[07:12] <cheenu_> killerscript :its very easy
[07:12] <cheenu_> do u want to compile the kernel in linux or ubuntu?
[07:12] <killerscript> but I don't know, why with kernel 3.03 with have probles with video  and I don't start the session
[07:12] <dr-willis> there is no command cheenu_  you need to go find a ppa for youtube-dl. or try other ff extensions
[07:13] <killerscript> yes I compiled the kernel 3.03
[07:13] <ZenMaster> I thought Ubuntu was linux. :D
[07:13] <cheenu_> then wats else ur prob?
[07:13]  * lol ZZZzzz
[07:14] <ubuntu_> wie ktos jak wlaczyc polskie znaki w ubuntu?
[07:14] <killerscript> maybe, I think that would remove  the new kernel (3.03) and install it again
[07:14] <killerscript> ?
[07:15] <cheenu_> ZenMaster : but the compilation differs from linux to ubuntu
[07:15] <ZenMaster> cheenu_: I think the correct terminology here would be Distrubution.
[07:15] <ZenMaster> Ubuntu is Linux, Just like Slakware is also.
[07:16] <killerscript> what is the last version of kernel for Ubuntu ?
[07:16] <killerscript> stable ...
[07:16] <ZenMaster> How2.6.38-11-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP
[07:16] <ZenMaster> [07:16] <killerscript> the last version of kernel for ubuntu... stable ?
[07:16] <ubuntu_> howto disable alt+letter combination to not show menu?
[07:16] <killerscript> 3 ?
[07:17] <ZenMaster> What it chose for me on my install of 11.04.
[07:17] <cheenu_> Zen : you have separate compilation for linux and ubuntu
[07:17] <killerscript> I using the kernel 2.6.38  this is the last version ?
[07:17] <ZenMaster> cheenu_: I think you either have bad english or I am not on the same page as you. :)
[07:18] <cheenu_> wats the latest version of ubuntu?
[07:18] <ZenMaster> http://www.ubuntu.org
[07:18] <zHammeRz> 11.04 cheenu, 11.10 beta
[07:18] <ZenMaster> [07:19] <cheenu_> Zen : i am not getting you
[07:20] <ZenMaster> cheenu_: And I you.
[07:21] <killerscript> anyway...  I downloaded  the last version stable for kernel the linux  http://www.kernel.org/   (3.03) and compiled it on my ubuntu with kernel 2.6.38
[07:21] <scarleo> milamber: abt my authorization problems, I can't even authorize when trying to install something from Ubuntu software center
[07:21] <killerscript> but I have problems with the video at start session
[07:24] <killerscript> how I can  remove the new kernel installed  and  reinstall it ? or this kernel doesn't is functional with ubuntu 11.04
[07:25] <killerscript> ?
[07:25] <Gleim> Someone knows why i get the msg error: not assignment before grub appears? I can enter on partitions, but dunno the origin of the error.
[07:25] <scarleo> milamber: never mind, found out user wasn't in admin group
[07:31] <Eliasmaster> I have a problem with Ubuntu 11.04. It won't boot up
[07:31] <cracker-lee> a ha
[07:31] <Eliasmaster> I have been using it for a while now
[07:31] <bartj> how can I install g77 on ubuntu ?
[07:32] <Eliasmaster> But today, it didn't boot up. When I try to select it from the boot menu
[07:32] <Eliasmaster> and open it, it shows just 'GRUB ubuntu(something else)
[07:32] <Eliasmaster> It's like a full screen terminal
[07:35] <killerscript> somebody, did install the linux kernel 3.0  on ubuntu 11.04 ?
[07:35] <cracker-lee> no
[07:35] <cracker-lee> kernel 2.6
[07:35] <killerscript> why ?
[07:35] <killerscript> this can't do ?
[07:35] <cracker-lee> step by step
[07:36] <cracker-lee> yeah
[07:36] <killerscript> how can do it ?
[07:38] <cracker-lee> workspace 1
[07:38] <almoxarife> Eliasmaster: boot menu is grub?
[07:38] <Eliasmaster> I installed with Wubi
[07:38] <Eliasmaster> so I select Ubuntu form the windiws boot menu
[07:38] <Eliasmaster> and then normally comes the grub boot menu
[07:38] <ohmy> hi
[07:38] <Eliasmaster> but this time I just got a 'terminal'
[07:39] <ohmy> Could you please tell me what packages should be installed to have ubuntu in arabic language (keeping the keyboard layout as it is)
[07:39] <almoxarife> Eliasmaster: ic, it's the MBR then, there is a easy fix unless something is seriously wrong on the ubuntu side
[07:39] <Eliasmaster> Oh, great
[07:40] <Eliasmaster> I feared I lost all my files
[07:40] <Eliasmaster> what is the fix?
[07:40] <almoxarife> let me find that link
[07:42] <cheenu> how to know to latest version of ubuntu via terminal?
[07:42] <almoxarife> Eliasmaster: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Wubi_9.10 <-- the critical part is having the wubildr that you initially created the wubi installed ubuntu, it will make sense once you read the link
[07:44] <Eliasmaster> "If any of the boot files is outside of the 4GB limit, booting will fail"
[07:44] <Eliasmaster> I just downloaded a lot of files to Ubuntu, could that be the cause?
[07:46] <almoxarife> Eliasmaster: no idea, I know I must have fixed mine via method on link quite a few times, usually after kernel updates
[07:46] <Eliasmaster> "Warning: The solution below is only for Wubi 9.10. It will make older versions unbootable." Can I still use it to Ubuntu 11.04?
[07:47] <almoxarife> Eliasmaster: wubi is not ubuntu
[07:47] <Eliasmaster> oh, right
[07:47] <cheenu> difference between linux and ubuntu???
[07:49] <Jordan_U> Eliasmaster: almoxarife: The problem mentioned in http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Wubi_9.10 no longer exists in Ubuntu 11.04, so the work around will not help as that is not the current problem.
[07:51] <Eliasmaster> D:
[07:51] <Jordan_U> Eliasmaster: Please run boot info script and file a bug report, attaching the RESULTS.txt that boot info script produces to the bug report.
[07:51] <auronandace> cheenu: linux is a kernel, ubuntu is a distribution
[07:51] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | Eliasmaster
[07:52] <cheenu> linux is an operationg system where kernel is a brain of an operating system i guess
[07:52] <auronandace> Eliasmaster: wubi is awful, try using ubuntu in a vm or give it a proper partition on the harddrive
[07:52] <Jordan_U> Eliasmaster: I can't help you today but if you file a bug report and subscribe me (jordanu on launchpad) I will try to help you later.
[07:53] <Eliasmaster> ok
[07:53] <almoxarife> Jordan_U: replace the faulty "C:\wubildr is not the answer? how does he run a linux script in windows?
[07:53] <Jordan_U> Eliasmaster: Also, your files can be recovered fairly easily from a LiveCD even if you can't boot your Wubi install.
[07:53] <Eliasmaster> I was wondering that too
[07:53] <Eliasmaster> >running linux script from windows
[07:53] <Jordan_U> Eliasmaster: almoxarife: From a LiveCD/USB.
[07:54] <Eliasmaster> g2g2 to scool
[07:54] <cheenu> linux is an operating system where kernel is a brain of an operating system....both linux as well as ubuntu are the operating system.
[07:54] <Eliasmaster> *school
[07:55] <cheenu> eliasmaster : pls see the above statement and justify me
[07:55] <almoxarife> Jordan_U: a livecd works on a file system, a wubi install is one file, two with swap, how does that work?
[07:55] <killerscript> somebody have a link for download scripts for administrator ?
[07:55] <cheenu> almoxarife : wat is wubi
[07:56] <almoxarife> cheenu: try google
[07:56] <auronandace> cheenu: linux is the kernel, but people do refer to the whole OS as linux (which is technically incorrect)
[07:57] <Jordan_U> almoxarife: I don't understand your question.
[07:57] <cheenu> almo : ok
[07:58] <cheenu> If not linux is the operating system,then wat else is the operating system?
[07:59] <auronandace> cheenu: you really should read up on these things, this is the ubuntu support channel
[08:00] <cheenu> ok
[08:00] <auronandace> cheenu: an operating system is more than just a kernel
[08:00] <cheenu> ok i need the exact definition for linux and ubuntu
[08:01] <auronandace> cheenu: wikipedia
[08:01] <ZenMaster> Yeah cheenu. What is your nationality because your english is not so good either. :D
[08:02] <ActionParsnip> cheenu: linux is the kernel only (technically)
[08:02] <chris--> i all. i have a "small" problem with my backup. i have a backup using 500GB rdx cartridges. the cartridges are labeled with "e2label". i use 3 cartridges. 1 for MO/WED , 1 for TUE/THUR and 1 for FRI. i have a cronjob running on working days at 11pm. the backup works on all days except monday. the script does following: checking label -> mounting device -> copying files -> unmount device -> eject device. On monday he somehow fails mount the device with follo
[08:03] <ActionParsnip> ZenMaster: english isn't a nationality ;)
[08:03] <Jordan_U> chris--: Your message was cut off at "fails mount the device with follo".
[08:03] <chris--> fails mount the device with followin error "mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist"
[08:03] <chris--> though, on wednesday it works using the same cartridge
[08:03] <ActionParsnip> chris--: run:   sudo fdisk -l   to see available partitions
[08:04] <Jordan_U> chris--: Are you mounting via /dev/disk/by-label/? If not, why not?
[08:04] <susundberg> (and does the script work on WED but not on MON .. that would sound weird .. )
[08:04] <cheenu> I am an indian...I think i have enough communication...
[08:04] <Darth_X> \O/
[08:05] <chris--> im mounting using " /bin/mount /dev/$GERAET /daten.rdx " where $GERAET is sdb1
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> cheenu: I'd say so.
[08:05] <cheenu> Zen : tell me
[08:05] <Darth_X> I really like ubuntu, I installed it on my PC as a second OS next to Windows7
[08:05] <ActionParsnip> Darth_X: glad you like it :)
[08:05] <auronandace> !tab | cheenu
[08:05] <Lasers> If you really like it, you'd install it over Windows7. ;)
[08:05] <chris--> susundberg, yes, the script works on wednesday
[08:06] <Darth_X> Laser: LOL! exactly
[08:06] <cheenu> ActionParsnip, thanks
[08:06] <cheenu> ubottu, : thanks
[08:06] <Darth_X> if windows8 is like ME or VISTA, I will format it and install ubuntu instead
[08:07] <ActionParsnip> Darth_X: you may find Ubuntu suits your needs, regardless of how it is
[08:07] <Jordan_U> chris--: I would recommend something like "sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/your_label_here /mountpoint".
[08:07] <cheenu> ubottu, : ok ....am i using it correctly what u have said?
[08:08] <Lasers> Darth_X: It's hard to use Ubuntu if you have all your personal files on Windows7.  Not really.
[08:14] <rostayob> Probably old question, but what's a good lightweight laptop that plays well with linux?
[08:15] <wnoronha> cheenu, you should try searching for information on wikipedia or the ubuntu wiki before asking for question
[08:15] <wnoronha> cheenu, and drop the sms lingo
[08:15] <almoxarife> rostayob: a free one?
[08:15] <rostayob> almoxarife: how do I get a free laptop?
[08:16] <almoxarife> rostayob: wrong channel :)
[08:16] <rostayob> almoxarife: ehe
[08:17] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | rostayob
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> rostayob: eeepc runs well
[08:18] <Lasers> I have a silly question. Is it possible to trigger something based on loud voice coming from microphone?
[08:18] <rostayob> ActionParsnip: well I'd like something with a >14 inch screen
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> rostayob: the hcl link may help
[08:19] <Lasers> rostayob: eBay. They're pretty cheap! You can get decent laptops for cheap price.
[08:19] <Lasers> Too many laptops so the prices are going down, I guess.
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> rostayob: dell can ship with ubuntu (afaik). Look for companies pre-installing Linux :)
[08:20] <rostayob> ActionParsnip: yeah the links don't seem to be working
[08:20] <rostayob> anyway thanks for that list
[08:21] <ActionParsnip> rostayob: http://lxer.com/module/db/viewby.php?uid=124&sort=120&option=1&value=on&offset=0&dbn=14

[08:44] <cheenu> wildgoose, : ok thanks
[08:45] <zHammeRz> it's weird only workspace 1 auto hides, the rest do not
[08:45] <cheenu> people who are much brilliant should suggest the exact path so that beginners could be benifited.....
[08:46] <wildgoose> !pgp > jack__
[08:46] <scarleo> Is it possible to somehow prevent windows from stealing focus when something is happening in them
[08:47] <Lloir> cheenu what is it you want to know?

[08:48] <BlackAss> cheenu, there is no virus in linux. are you from mumbai, "son of raja"?
[08:48] <ActionParsnip> cheenu: not impossible, just incredibly hard

[08:49] <jack__> wildgoose, i dont see how to encrypt a file with someones elses public key
[08:49] <wildgoose> BlackAss: Easy killer...

[08:49] <BlackAss> lol
[08:49]  * Lloir wonders if people actually use google these days...
[08:50] <zHammeRz> ok, weird.  So I close gimp on screen 2, and the taskbar on screen 1 stops auto hiding
[08:50] <BlackAss> cheenu, son of raja, do not search google, they troll?
[08:51] <oCean> BlackAss, cheenu  please stay on topic
[08:51] <Lasers> oCean: What IRC client are you using? (For my own benefits)
[08:51] <oCean> Lasers: currently xchat, but also irssi from time to time
[08:52] <Lasers> oCean: I see. Thank you. (I was wondering how you grep the yaris statement)
[08:54] <oCean> Lasers: that has nothing to do with the client, it's a grep in local logfiles
[08:55] <Lasers> oCean: Yes, but sometimes clients (such as irssi) have backlog command or such. I was just curious. Mostly.
[08:55] <Nicolus> How to rename a multitude of file extensions Eg: Change .jpeg to .jpg
[08:56] <BlackAss> Nicolus, mv file.jpeg file.jpg
[08:56] <Lasers> ...
[08:56] <Nicolus> BlackAss, not one file .. many files .. I tried mv *.jpeg *.jpg but it did not work
[08:57] <BlackAss> Lasers, xchat has also a log files and use grep to search them.
[08:57] <BlackAss> Nicolus, i think u need script no idea sorry
[08:58] <oCean> Nicolus: no, that won't work. You can write a little shell script with a for loop, but there is (or was?) also a gui tool 'bulk rename'
[08:58] <Lasers> Nicolus: I like pyrenamer for GUI client. However, for CLI, I'm big fan of renameutils + gedit/geany
[08:58] <Nicolus> ok cool
[08:58] <oCean> Nicolus: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos/BatchRenaming
[08:58] <Nicolus> i dont have to rename a lot of files.. only few.. so i will do the normal way :)
[08:58] <ActionParsnip> Nicolus: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos/BatchRenaming
[08:59] <Nicolus> anyways thanks :) will look at that site
[08:59] <oCean> ActionParsnip: does it still exist? The page is from 2009
[08:59] <jack__> anyone know how to encrypt a document using someones elses gpg public key?
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> oCean: possibly
[08:59] <ActionParsnip> oCean: i'd use bash personally
[08:59] <oCean> ActionParsnip: same here
[09:00] <Nicolus> that site looks quite informative.. I will try that solution which u guys provided me.. thanks again
[09:00] <cristian_c> Hi
[09:00] <cristian_c> I've got a keyboard called Media Wireless Desktop by Labtec. I tried to set the keyboard shortcuts directly from the Applications-> Settings-> Xfce4 settings manager -> Keyboard-> Applications shortcuts. I clicked on Add and for example I typed the command 'evolution'. I pressed Ok and then the system asked me to type the key on the keyboard.
[09:00] <cristian_c> In this case the key was correctly recognized as XF86Mail and has been included in the list of shortcuts. But if I press the mail key, it always happens the same problem, that instead of opening evolution, the pc goes into stand-by. Is anyone able to understand what the problem is due? I even tried keytouch editor and it recognized the keys.
[09:01] <cristian_c> But after setting up the keyboard with keytouch, if I press the 'mail' key, the PC goes always on standby for no reason

[09:09] <Mumie> Hello guys
[09:09] <alami> Hello Mumie
[09:10] <Mumie> maybe somone can help me: I try to use the following line "sudo echo DIGD > /sys/kernel/debug/switcheroo/switch"  ... unfortunatly, I only get "no permission" and it does not work
[09:10] <Guest4910> how do i make bitorrent work in ubuntu
[09:10] <Mumie> does anyone know a solution for this?
[09:10] <cheenu> really minitube is excellent guys
[09:11] <Mumie> Why not installing an bittorrent client?
[09:11] <Guest4910> how
[09:12] <Mumie> I do not know how the programm is called in englisch
[09:12] <BlackAss> I have a FireWire camera connected. And i cant see anything using. e.g: $ lspci | grep FireWire
[09:12] <Mumie> software center or something?
[09:12] <Mumie> there you can choose many programs
[09:12] <Mumie> and install them
[09:12] <dr-willis> mu
[09:13] <dr-willis> Mumie:  you need to make use of 'tee' when using sudo and redirection like that.
[09:13] <Mumie> ok, I'll google for tee then
[09:14] <dr-willis> Mumie:  search for the site 'a root shell in ubuntu the right way' ut has an wxample
[09:14] <dr-willis> Mumie:  or check  delicious.com/dr_willis
[09:14] <Mumie> ok, thank you :)
[09:15] <amitrana> Hi, how do I add/use invest-applet in ubuntu 11.10?
[09:15] <amitrana> I cant find it using synaptic-manager
[09:15] <oCean> amitrana: support for 11.10 (beta) in #ubuntu+1 channel
[09:15] <dr-willis> whats invest-applet?
[09:16] <amitrana> It lets you track your investment (stock prices) right on your desktop
[09:16] <BlackAss> How to know my FireWire is up or detected or not detected? e.g: https://gist.github.com/1197070
[09:16] <BlackAss> I have also tried dmesg | grep FireWire know shows
[09:17] <dr-willis> BlackAss:  you may need to load the right modules.
[09:17] <Mumie> so a working line would be: "echo DIGD | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/switcheroo/switch" ? Damn, I dont know nothing about what i am doing here xD
[09:17] <dr-willis> i dont think its called firewire. its called by the spec #.   been ages since i messed with it
[09:18] <tdn> How do I change system language (menus and the like) to Danish? I would really like to do it from command line if possible. And for all users.
[09:18] <dr-willis> Mumie:  looks about right
[09:18] <BlackAss> dr-willis, inside my PC > miniPCI is connected to a external Firewire > FireWire is connected with a Camera.
[09:18] <Mumie> great, then I'll try it (hoping my pc does not explode or something)
[09:19] <wbednarski> how can I install Gnome 3 on Ubuntu Server 11.04?
[09:19] <Lasers> !gnome3 | wbednarski
[09:19] <alami> hello, how can i give a user the Privileges to run X, because i can run X only with root or sudo cmd
[09:19] <Lasers> wbednarski: http://gnome3.org/ -- Just use their ISO or something.
[09:20] <wbednarski> @ubottu and @Lasers thanks!
[09:20] <gbjk> Morning. Quick and easy question: My gnome panel has lost it's notification area (power, wifi, sound, date-time, etc). I'm trying to remember the name of the proces I can call that re-instates it all at once?
[09:20] <dr-willis> !firewire
[09:21] <Badgerpoo> for some reason, yesterday at 10am my ipv6 stopped working. I now have a link address but no global address. My router is performing RA fine to other PCs on the network. I have tried opening the firewall, the network settings are set to "auto", and tcpdump shows the RA announcments arriving at eth0
[09:21] <gbjk> Ah, Nevermind, it was "indicator-applet-complete" in add to panel. THanks.
[09:21] <urlin2u> gbjk, which desktop?
[09:21] <hiwk> gbjk: gnome-panel?
[09:21] <gbjk> urlin2u: gnome 2, out of interest.
[09:21] <BlackAss> $ grep firewire /var/log/kern.log   ; shows known
[09:22] <Badgerpoo> $ sudo tcpdump -t -n -i eth0 -s 512 -vv ip6 or proto ipv6
[09:22] <Badgerpoo> tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 512 bytes

[09:22] <aple> I know I'm reaching here, but is there any way to install Ubuntu side-by-side with Windows so I can switch back and forth between the two all willy nilly?
[09:23] <aple> I know about Wubi on boot
[09:23] <aple> But is there any way to set up my system so I can like Alt + Tab back and forth between Win and Ubuntu?
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> aple: you will need to reboot to get to the other OS
[09:23] <BlessJah> is /etc/modules deprecated (in 10.04 and 11.04)???
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> aple: you could virtualize one of the OSes in the other
[09:24] <cillo564> does ubuntu have their own system tools, example open suse have yast
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> BlessJah: no, its still used
[09:24] <BlessJah> ActionParsnip: is it possible to add module using some magic in /etc/modprobe.d?
[09:24] <ActionParsnip> cillo564: apt-get is similar to yast
[09:25] <aple> ActionParsnip: How do you virtualize? :)
[09:25] <BlessJah> ActionParsnip: /etc/modules.d*
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> BlessJah: if you want a module loading at boot then you can add it in /etc/modules or you can add:   modprobe modulename   in /etc/rc.local
[09:25] <DJones> !vm | aple You could run one os inside a virtual machine
[09:25] <aple> Ah I see
[09:26] <DJones> aple: I occasionally have windows running inside virtualbox on ubuntu
[09:26] <cillo564> ActionParsnip: I'm looking graphical frontends for tweaking the distro
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> aple: virtualbox is nice and simple
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> cillo564: there are settings apps in the menus, depends what you want to tweak...#
[09:27] <aple> Are there any cons to running a VirtualBox?
[09:27] <aple> This looks perfect: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/virtualbox :)
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> aple: running both OSes at the same times uses a lot of ram and cpu
[09:28] <cillo564> ActionParsnip: I was thinking is ther more graphical tools than what comes default in gnome or kde system tools
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> aple: if you want native USB access then install the closed source vitualbox from the virtualbox ppa
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> cillo564: I guess there are, not sure though. What do you want to tweak?
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> cillo564: do you have ubuntu-tweak too?
[09:29] <Soothsayer> Where exactly is the list of programs that run on startup stored?
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> Soothsayer: do you mean at boot, or at login?
[09:30] <Soothsayer> ActionParsnip, I'm not sure.  I've got 4GB RAM and some 2-3 yr old processor. Think I could run Ubuntu in a virtualbox from Win7 and be able to dev in Ubuntu and design in Win7 without a big hinge?
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> aple: you'll be fine then
[09:30] <aple> Sweet :)
[09:30] <lboken> i need help im trying to install the gnome 3 desktop but  i get an error message
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> aple: the host OS will obviously suffer some speed degredation but you'll be ok
[09:31] <aple> Now, can I still load my Ubuntu install from boot?
[09:31] <aple> This virtualbox stuff sounds friggin' awesome :)
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> lboken: can you pastebin your error please?
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> aple: simple yet effective
[09:31] <ActionParsnip> aple: vmware also exists
[09:32] <Soothsayer> ActionParsnip, and where's the startup script file located?
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> lboken: installing gnome3 on natty will more than likely break stuff, just so you know
[09:32] <ActionParsnip> Soothsayer: /etc/rc.d afaik
[09:33] <aple> ActionParsnip: What was that bit about USB? I have an external HD I need to access frequently but probably not from Ubuntu (which would be in the virtualbox).
[09:34] <dr-willis> aple the usb stuff is for directly acessing a usb device. not needed in your example.
[09:34] <chris--> susundberg, Jordan_U: hey its me again. just wanted to say that mount by label seems to work fine :) just one more question since i cant test it at the moment: can i also eject the device by label then ? /usr/bin/eject /dev/disk/by-label/$LABEL ?
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> aple: then if you want access to it then you will need to add the virtualbox ppa and install the closed source one from there: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[09:35] <lboken> ActionParsnip: :http://pastebin.com/1QHGw5re
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> !gnome3 | lboken
[09:35] <cillo564> ActionParsnip: im looking generally what i can tweak, is there more apps like ubuntu-tweak?
[09:35] <susundberg> chris--: afaik sure you can " The device corresponding to <name> is ejected. The name can be a  device  file  or
[09:35] <susundberg>        mount  point,  either  a  full path or with the leading "/dev", "/media" or "/mnt"
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> cillo564: not sure there dude
[09:35] <susundberg>        omitted. If no name is specified, the default name "cdrom" is used."
[09:35] <aple> ActionParsnip: But I can do that from within Ubuntu's virtualbox right? Then just restart VirtualBox and it will recognize the USB?
[09:36] <lboken> ok  so basicly the gnome 3 is not compatible with ubuntu yet
[09:36] <lboken> thanks then for the information
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> aple: not sure of that, could try it. You can always add the extra software source later and install virtualbox-4.1
[09:36] <chris--> susundberg, hehe ok, thx susu :)
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> lboken: its default in Oneiric
[09:36] <html> hi
[09:37] <lboken> k
[09:37] <lboken> when dos oneiric is due to be released?
[09:37] <qmr> so.. how come I have nautilus windows that won't respond?  the hell?
[09:37] <qmr> this should never happen.  ever.
[09:37] <aple> Ok, I'm about to get downright freaky with this VirtualBox
[09:37] <lboken> k i find my info  thanks anyway bye all
[09:38] <aple> Thanks so much guys, this was exactly what I was hoping for :D
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> qmr: should is a wondeful word
[09:38] <Soothsayer> ActionParsnip, hmm that file does not exist for me.
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> qmr: kill it off
[09:38] <Soothsayer> nor can I find mongodb in bump.
[09:38] <qmr> I did.
[09:38] <Soothsayer> but it still tries to start everytime i start my comp
[09:38] <html> aple,  "freaky"   lol ... mm i just got in here and i see this ,,, ..mm ahhh   get a rain coat?
[09:39] <qmr> when did ubuntu become "beta test our crap on unsuspecting users"?
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> Soothsayer: if you use the update-rc.d  you can add and remove items from bootup
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> qmr: which release are you using?
[09:39] <burg> is there any 11.10 beta available for download?
[09:39] <ActionParsnip> qmr: lsb_release -sc   will tell you
[09:39] <dr-willis> qmr every non lts is that way basically.
[09:39] <burg> is there any 11.10 beta available for download?
[09:40] <ActionParsnip> burg: yes it went Beta1 on the 1st Sept
[09:40] <qmr> "natty" I believe
[09:40] <qmr> 1104
[09:40] <qmr> dr-willis: I wish someone had given me the memo
[09:40] <aple> html: Yeah, I realized how horrible that sounded, but I guess it matched my personality enough not to take it back... Isn't that right Jillina? *gently pets his Japandroid-girl*
[09:40] <rnz> anybody know how to disable putting daemon scripts to autostart on install step (configure apt or dpkg)?
[09:40] <ActionParsnip> qmr: ok can you pastebin the output of:  lsb_release -a; apt-cache policy nautilus
[09:40] <Soothsayer> ActionParsnip, oh, I found mongodb in the Bump gui.. but I can't seem to edit it
[09:40] <dr-willis> qmr been that way for ages.
[09:41] <qmr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/683318/
[09:42] <zagibu> they should rename ubuntu to SNS Linux
[09:42] <qmr> dr-willis: I've never experienced this much BS before this current version
[09:42] <GeorgeJ> Hello folks, I've just installed virtualmin and I want to have multiple versions of php installed. Is it possible to have multiple versions installed? If so, could you point me in the right direction?
[09:42] <awise12> !server | GeorgeJ
[09:43] <sgo11> hi guys, can I ask postgresql newbie question here? nobody replied me in #postgresql ...
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> qmr: have you reported a bug?
[09:43] <qmr> I've had about 10x in last week when desktop has stopped responding requiring multiple GDM restarts, and 3 times system has crashed completely
[09:44] <qmr> I sent shuttleworth some hate tweets.  http://i.imgur.com/VkC3I.jpg
[09:44] <html> qmr,   bs  you say ? well i  do say that  since 11.04  we offically have a linux distro just like VISTA , and 11,10 is going to be like win7 (its a toss up)
[09:45] <Soothsayer> What all are the startup script files on ubuntu?
[09:45] <qmr> html: is that good or bad? :P
[09:45] <Sidewinder1> qmr, I stick with LTS versions; unless ones hdw is cutting/bleeding edge, for me, that's the best bet. Sorry you're having problems w/Natty.
[09:45] <qmr> Soothsayer: /etc/rc.d/
[09:46] <Soothsayer> qmr, I don't have that file.
[09:46] <Soothsayer> I have an rc.local (file) and rc0.d , rc1.d, etc, etc which are directories
[09:46] <qmr> well that's not quite correct.  it's /etc/init.d/, and /etc/rc[1-6].d for various runlevels
[09:47] <auronandace> !upstart | Soothsayer
[09:47] <Badgerpoo> Anyone able to help with ipv6 issues?
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> qmr: does it happen as all users?
[09:47] <qmr> ActionParsnip: single user system
[09:47] <Soothsayer> qmr, so /etc/init.d/apache2 is what causes  apache to start at boot?
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> qmr: no, Ubuntu is a multi-user OS
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> qmr: make ANOTHER user and see if it's the same with vanilla settings
[09:48] <qmr> Soothsayer: that's teh apache control script, it's started from ...
[09:48] <qmr> why don't you put that in a memo and entitle it "Shit I Already Know"
[09:49] <auronandace> qmr: seriously, watch the language
[09:49] <qmr> Soothsayer: the bit that starts apache is going to be something like /etc/rc2.d/S20apache2
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> qmr: your settings for nautilus may be corrupted, if the app reads them it may hang. A new user with default settings behaving the same way as the current user will point to the app being defective, if it is ok then it is simply your user settings which are bad
[09:50] <qmr> it's not a regularly occuring problem though
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> qmr: its worth exploring
[09:51] <uabn93> hi
[09:51] <qmr> hai
[09:51] <Sidewinder1> qmr, And if the apps defective, you could try totally removing it and reinstalling (Nautilus).
[09:52] <Soothsayer> qmr, wow, these files go over my head. I expected there to be just one line saying apache2ctl restart or something
[09:52] <Sidewinder1> qmr, But you probably already know that. :D
[09:52] <wh1zz0> Hello everyone, my hibernate does not work. It wored before but it no longer works, I use Dell Vostro 1310 and i"m on natty
[09:52] <Myrtti> actuallty, sudo service apache2 start, or somesuch
[09:52] <qmr> I just need to install 10.04 or whenever ubuntu was last junk
[09:52] <uabn93> i downloaded the latest mupen64plus, ran install.sh in terminal, it installed. now what? how do i run the program?
[09:53] <qmr> Soothsayer: what are you wanting to change about how apache runs or when it runs or?
[09:53] <wh1zz0> Hello everyone, my hibernate does not work. It worked before but it no longer works, I use Dell Vostro 1310 and i"m on natty.. Please how can I get it working again?
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> uabn93: if you run:   which muppen64plus    does it output anything?
[09:53] <Sidewinder1> qmr, 10.04 works (almost) flawlessly for me.
[09:53] <qmr> wh1zz0: tried booting old kernels?
[09:53] <Soothsayer> qmr, I want to actually change the startup configuration used for mongodb, not apache.
[09:53] <wh1zz0> qmr: How do I do that? When it's loading I hold shift right/
[09:53] <wh1zz0> ?
[09:54] <Soothsayer> normally, I started it with the command sudo mongod --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb/      but I want to see how does it start on boot.
[09:54] <qmr> wh1zz0: when your computer starts you should see a GRUB screen with your configured OS's listed.. old kernels will be an option there
[09:54] <qmr> wh1zz0: did this loss of functionality happen after a kernel update?  Or other software update?
[09:54] <aple> ActionParsnip: So, once I make this VirtualBox, will it save it's state or do I have to do that manually? For instance, if I download a bunch of apps and such on the Ubuntu virtualbox, will they load the next time I hit "Start" or do I have to save that state lest I start off on a clean Ubuntu install every time?
[09:54] <uabn93> ActionParsnip: its in /usr/local/bin/mupen64plus how do i go about opening it?
[09:55] <qmr> aple: the virtualbox is persistent
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> uabn93: you can make a launcher on the desktop to run that comamnd and you can then double click the launcher
[09:55] <wh1zz0> qmr: I have just one OS .. which is ubuntu.. when my computer starts it just shows DELL, then purple and then writes ubuntu and heads to the login screen
[09:56] <qmr> wh1zz0: it sounds like you have timeout 0 in grub or such ..
[09:56] <movan2011> Hi there.  I'm using "classic" Gnome (2.32) on Ubuntu 11.04 and added a drawer applet to a left-hand panel.  When you first add thing into the panel it work fine, but once you log out (or killall gnome-panel) it doesn't show when you click it.
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> aple: you can stop systems and save state, or you can shut them down etc. The updates and changes you make are persistent between boots
[09:56] <qmr> wh1zz0: or try pressing shift key when your computer comes on?
[09:56] <wh1zz0> qmr: I'm guessing it must have happened after I installed something, but I am not sure what because I installed a whole lot of things on that day
[09:56] <damo22> wh1zz0: hold left shift while pc boots
[09:57] <movan2011> Eventually figured out how to get it showing but now it seems oriented in the top left corner of the screen and I can't move it and ubuntu seems to ignore any changes I make to its position properties.  Anyone know how to fix this?
[09:57] <wh1zz0> qmr: So which of the kernels do you sugges I boot?
[09:57] <qmr> wh1zz0: NOT whatever the highest numbered one is.  go backwards one by one until you find one that hibernates properly
[09:57] <aple> ActionParsnip, qmr: So interesting :)))
[09:58] <wh1zz0> qmr, damo22: But will this affect any setting I have or will it roll back any installed program?
[09:58] <qmr> wh1zz0: no.  this is booting a different kernel image.  you're still running the same software
[09:58] <damo22> wh1zz0: it will just load a different kernel, all the apps stay intact
[09:59] <Brutus-> Hi
[09:59] <qmr> herro
[10:00] <wh1zz0> qmr, damo22: Great.. Thanks for this.. Will try that now.
[10:00] <damo22> Ave Brutus maximus
[10:01] <Brutus-> i can't find the acpid deamon listed among the processes in the system monitor. Is acpid the name of the daemon?
[10:01] <Brutus-> damo22, :D
[10:01] <Brutus-> damo22, ave a te
[10:02] <uabn93> ActionParsnip: for some reason, creating a shortcut doesn't open the program
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> uabn93: you can run:  alacarte   and add to the menu that way
[10:04] <damo22> there are way too many verbs in latin that mean to kill
[10:05] <damo22> and yet we use the english version to kill a system process in linux
[10:08] <jasef> Hey uhm, I'm getting ready to fresh install 11.10 over my 11.04 installation, but I just remembered I chose to encrypt my home folder, is there any way to reverse this so all my files are accessible when I install 11.10?
[10:10] <damo22> jasef: make sure you know the password that encypts your data, and preferably which algorithm
[10:11] <jasef> I know my password, but I don't know what algorithm Ubuntu encrypts home folders with.
[10:11] <damo22> jasef: good point, neither do i
[10:12] <dr-willis> when in doubt... backup...  ;)
[10:12] <damo22> jasef: is your home folder on a separate partition?
[10:13] <Brutus-> i can't find the acpid deamon listed among the processes in the system monitor. Is acpid the name of the daemon?
[10:13] <aeplus> full disk encryption is awesome, but it does not seem to be available on the main installation media (alternate install CD supports it though)
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> I think its a big headache
[10:14] <damo22> ActionParsnip: i agree
[10:14] <xiami> 大家好
[10:14] <uabn93> what about truecrypt
[10:14] <xiami> 请用中文
[10:14] <xiami> 谢谢
[10:15] <damo22> i like to be free to dd a partition and remount it without worrying about encryption algorithms
[10:15] <xiami> no
[10:15] <Sidewinder1> !cn | xiami
[10:15] <Dori922> whats a good guide for learning fdisk? that explains cylinders, heads etc...
[10:15] <uabn93> ActionParsnip: i tried it all and nothing seems to work. should i restart or something?
[10:16] <damo22> Dori922: cylinders/heads/sectors are not really relevant in todays hardware as everything is logical block addressing
[10:16] <kescc> how do i "reboot your computer and select the Linux kernel 3.0 entry on your GRUB boot loader."
[10:17] <dr-willis> Dori922:  wikipedia pages on hard drives and partitions is a good start.
[10:17] <uabn93> kescc: use your keyboard arrows
[10:17] <kescc> uabn93 what do you mean, when
[10:17] <aeplus> lol
[10:17] <damo22> Dori922: although if you are doing something strange like rebuilding a usb-zip drive you might need it
[10:17] <kescc> uabn93 when at reboot i should use arrows?
[10:18] <kescc> uabn93 i dont even know what is GRUB, explaine please
[10:18] <aple1> How much RAM should I allocate for this Ubuntu VirtualBox y'think?
[10:18] <aple1> 4gb total
[10:18] <oCean> kescc: explain what are you trying to do? There is no 3.0 kernel in current ubuntu version
[10:18] <aple1> Doing a lot of Photoshop on Win7
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> uabn93: what will rebooting achieve?
[10:18] <damo22> aple1: probably not more than 50% of your total ram?
[10:19] <aple1> I was thinking 768mb.
[10:19] <kescc> oCean yes it is, i am trying http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Linux-Kernel-3-0-on-Ubuntu-11-04-217409.shtml
[10:19] <aple1> Think Ubuntu will run smoothly with that?
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> uabn93: try: cd ~/Desktop; ln -s  /usr/local/bin/mupen64plus
[10:19] <Dori922> damo22: I have a server with a 1tb drive and want to have ~ 50gb in the server partition and 950gb in a storage partition.. then subdivide the storage partition into different logical partitions(for different users)
[10:19] <uabn93> kescc: grub is the black screen that shows up when you boot up your computer. when you see that screen, u get 10 seconds to choose which operating system to boot. use the up and down arrows and enter to select
[10:19] <Dori922> damo22:  when i use fdisk it asks me about stuff like cylinders :o
[10:19] <damo22> Dori922: thats not too hard, try gparted
[10:19] <oCean> kescc: that kernel is from a PPA, those are not supported 3rd party repositories. Be very careful when using PPA's
[10:20] <kescc> kescc i dont get that, i have only ubuntu on this machine
[10:20] <kescc> uabn93 ^
[10:20] <Dori922> damo22:  isnt that a gui system? i dont have a gui on the server :s
[10:20] <ultrixx> jasef: ubuntu uses aes+xts for harddisk encryption
[10:20] <damo22> Dori922: oh okay, then i know how to do it
[10:21] <damo22> Dori922: it will be painful from command line though
[10:21] <uabn93> kescc: if you only have ubuntu, then a list will show up when you have more that one kernel installed
[10:21] <Dori922> damo22: if i had a gui it would be fine but i dont :P unless i install a gnome gui and then uninstall when the partitions are done...
[10:21] <jasef> ultrixx, thanks. I'm thinking I might just go the easy cheap way and copy the files out and then back in after installing 11.10 lol...
[10:22] <damo22> Dori922: perhaps you can boot the server into a livecd and use gparted
[10:23] <damo22> Dori922: so you dont have to touch the server install, just run the livecd temporarily while you partition the drive in a gui
[10:23] <vanquish349> how do i check systems specks
[10:23] <lng> hi! I need to install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0, but it's not present on my Ubuntu. Do I need to add the repo for it? http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0
[10:23] <Dori922> damo22:  can i do that -after- servers installed?
[10:23] <lng> or how do I install it?
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> lng: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[10:23] <oCean> vanquish349: there are several ways.. lspci, lsusb, cat /proc/cpuinfo, cat /proc/meminfo etc.  Running  sudo lshw  will give a comprehensive list of your hardware config
[10:24] <damo22> Dori922: sure why not..
[10:24] <vanquish349> thanks
[10:24] <lng> ActionParsnip: I have lucid
[10:24] <Dori922> damo22:  thanks :D *new*
[10:25] <damo22> Dori922: are you sure you want separate partitions for each user, or just a partition for /home
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> lng: then you may need to upgrade to maverick, or find a ppa with the app
[10:26] <knoppix> tendua
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> lng: mixing packages between releases is not advised or supported
[10:27] <lng> ActionParsnip: how do I upgrade to maverick?
[10:27] <damo22> Dori922: i think its possible to set up disk quotas for each user without giving them physical restriction by partition
[10:27] <lng> ActionParsnip: do I need livecd?
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | lng
[10:27] <lng> k
[10:27] <lng> tnx
[10:27] <uabn93> ActionParsnip: that didn't work. is there a way to run it without it being installed? maybe i should look for an unoff. repo
[10:27] <maalac> ssl handshake error on pidgin sipe : office communicator
[10:29] <Dori922> damo22:  i need to have each partition as secure for each user as possible ideally i want to stop them ls'ing each others partitions
[10:29] <damo22> Dori922: you can do that with permissions
[10:29] <damo22> Dori922: on the same partition
[10:29] <Dori922> damo22:  so im practicing with seperate partitions so i can encrypt etc...
[10:29] <dr-willis> Dori922:  you can just set proper modes to stop that
[10:30] <maxii> hi all
[10:30] <Dori922> dr-willis: damo22: will partitioning give no benifits at all? :s
[10:30] <dr-willis> Dori922:  i cant really think if any
[10:31] <dr-willis> unless they are on diff hds.
[10:31] <dr-willis> then you could see some speed gains i guess
[10:31] <maxii> wats new with ubuntu 11.04
[10:31] <damo22> Dori922: partitioning means you can easily back up an encypted partition using dd
[10:32] <lng> ActionParsnip: so simple. on Gento it would took me 2 or 3 days to get all of the packages compiled, rebuit
[10:32] <Dori922> damo22:  that will be handy though :P
[10:32] <uabn93> !user group
[10:32] <aple1> ActionParsnip: Sorry to keep bumming you for help, but is there somewhere I need to put the ubuntu .iso or does it only need to load once?
[10:32] <Dori922> damo22:  might be worth the extra effort...
[10:33] <damo22> Dori922: i shudder at the thought of encrypting a whole partition though
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> aple1: put it wherever you want
[10:33] <damo22> Dori922: you will suffer a speed loss
[10:33] <aple1> So it only needs loaded once?
[10:33] <aple1> Then I can delete it?
[10:33] <aple1> Or will the iso always need to be fetched?
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> aple1: you just tell the virtualbox to use it, be sure you MD5 test the ISO before you use it
[10:33] <Dori922> damo22: the partitions are only gonna be ~20gb though and they need to be as secure as possible, i have a i7 8core cpu with 8gb ram so im hoping that keeps speed loss low
[10:34] <aple1> MD5?
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> aple1: once the OS is installed, you can delete the instal ISO if you wish
[10:34] <jasef> md5sums are sexy.
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | aple1
[10:34] <aple1> Thanks Action
[10:34] <aple1> Lemme know PM if you have PayPal and I'll send you a tip
[10:34] <Sidewinder1> Heh,.
[10:34] <aple1> Been incredibly helpful these past few nights
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> aple1: i try
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> aple1: just enjoy the OS and be cool, that's all we ask :)
[10:35] <kvarley> Any ideas why Ubuntu will only show me the stock CPU clock speed and not the overclocked speed which is set in the bios?
[10:35] <damo22> Dori922: if you have trouble with encrypting a filesystem and come back for help to recover your lost partition you may find it difficult to get any help at all
[10:36] <Badgerpoo> Anyone able to help with ipv6 issues?
[10:36] <uhm_> I've just restarted my Ubuntu box and nvidia-drivers are not loaded: unity is not working fall back to GNOME2 sessione with awful resolution
[10:36] <uhm_> please help
[10:36] <uabn93> Well, im outta here
[10:37] <uhm_> nvidia-drivers are installed and they are working till now
[10:37] <Hyperbyte> !anyone | Badgerpoo
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> uhm_: try:  sudo nvidia-xconfig    then reboot
[10:37] <uabn93> can't solve this crud
[10:37] <damo22> Dori922: but if you stick with proper unix file permissions and a single partition, it should be easy to get support
[10:37] <uhm_> ActionParsnip: but I have no xorg.conf files
[10:37] <uhm_> and nvidia-drivers worked liek a charm till now
[10:37] <uhm_> *like
[10:38] <Dori922> damo22: right now its a demo system with nothing bar the server on the whole hard drive so i can trash it as often as possible until i know how to encrypt.. once they are connected to an account and encrypted, im hoping there arnt many ways to go wrong(users will only be able to read and write)
[10:38] <cheenu> hi
[10:38] <cheenu> tell me some of the most useful packages
[10:38] <Dori922> damo22: its for an online backup system though, i was thinking encrypting the partitions would increase security
[10:39] <Hyperbyte> cheenu, most useful?  kernel. :)  See here:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[10:39] <Hyperbyte> cheenu, or have a look through the Ubuntu software center.
[10:39] <maalac> ssl handshake error on Pidgin using sipe: Office Communicator to HP
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> uhm_: that command will make one
[10:40] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, where are you looking for your CPU speed?   cat /proc/cpuinfo  ?
[10:40] <damo22> Dori922: one thing i know for sure, if there is a physical disk error, likely you will lose the whole partition rather than just a sector from a file
[10:40] <Badgerpoo> My Ubuntu 11.04 PC lost it's global ipv6 address yesterday. It still has a link local address, but is now ignoring the RA packets. tcpdump sees the RA packets arriving, and some other ipv6 traffic on eth0. The network widget has been set to "ignore" and "automatic" but neither work.
[10:41] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: In System Monitor and cpuinfo it shows the 2.93GHz speed rather than 4GHz. The output of my cpuinfo can be found here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/683403/
[10:42] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, /proc/cpuinfo even shows 1.2 ghz.  I'd say there is CPU scaling active on your system (to decrease warmth and power usage of CPU), which ignores the BIOS overclock.
[10:44] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: CPU scaling running within Ubuntu or as part of the hardware or something?
[10:44] <damo22> Dori922: in my opinion you should chop the remainder of the terabyte in half and use one just for backups of the main one
[10:44] <Dori922> damo22: chop as in make primary partitions?
[10:45] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, which Ubuntu version?
[10:45] <kristoffer_> help me i messed up my system by following this guide: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Linux-Kernel-3-0-on-Ubuntu-11-04-217409.shtml and i got errors so i tried to reboot but it doesent come to the login screen just that Ubuntu loader, and then to some text with no gUI that tells me to login and password, how can i enter gRUB ?
[10:45] <Dori922> damo22: im just pasting this convo to my boss now see if he still wants me to partition :P *intern*
[10:45] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: 11.04 Desktop 64-bit
[10:45] <damo22> Dori922: eg keep it simple with 1 partition for / one for /home one for swap and one for backups
[10:45] <cheenu> Hyperbyte, : ok thanks...wru from?
[10:46] <Hyperbyte> !ot | Cheenu
[10:47] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, hrm... not sure actually.  My CPU on 11.04 x86_64 is scaling too, but no idea what part of the OS (assuming for a second it is the OS) is responsible for it.
[10:48] <skpl> can someone help me please? i installed gnome-shell but forgot to tell my machine to load the gdm, so it's trying to logon automatically without success
[10:48] <damo22> Dori922: then you can backup the MBR as well so you keep the whole partition table in one place, with 4 partitions they can all be primary
[10:48] <Seryth> michael_p hey :)
[10:48] <michael_p> hey
[10:49] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, I suppose it could be the BIOS as well, if you have some cool 'n quiet feature enabled.  Sorry, no idea anymore.  I don't overclock, so never ran into this.
[10:49] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: It's strange isn't it. This computer came with windows 7 on it and that also said the stock speed and not the overclocked one. I'd like to know how to turn scaling off for when I want to encode video or do something cpu intensive. Forums post maybe?
[10:49] <michael_p> just getting the dvd version
[10:49] <Seryth> cd*
[10:49] <Dori922> damo22:  and then with permissions ill be able to keep users as only having read/write permissions for their "home" drives(and set quota's to stop overuse?)
[10:49] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: I bought the pc as a prebuilt custom system which came overclocked so I guess I'll have to look! Thanks for all the help anyway :)
[10:49] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, you could try to max out the CPU and see what /proc/cpuinfo reports.
[10:49] <damo22> Dori922: correct (home directories)
[10:50] <damo22> Dori922: they would all be sharing one /home partition
[10:50] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, /proc/cpuinfo will always report the current megahertz the CPU is scaled to after "cpu MHz", not the maximum.  It could be that it's scaling it to the overclocked value, while other tools still report the stock information.
[10:51] <Hyperbyte> kvarley, so by maxing it out and seeing what /proc/cpuinfo says you'll learn what value it's really running at when it matters.
[10:51] <skpl> is there anyway i can get ubuntu to load the gdm from the terminal instead of trying to login automaticaslly?
[10:52] <kvarley> Hyperbyte: All 4 cores run at 2.93GHz when encoding, which is maxed out to the stock value...hmmmm
[10:53] <damo22> skpl: do you mean you want to disable gdm from starting at boot, then launch it manually from the console?
[10:53] <kristoffer_> please help me i messed up my system by following this guide: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Linux-Kernel-3-0-on-Ubuntu-11-04-217409.shtml  and i got errors so i tried to reboot and now it doesent come to the login screen just that Ubuntu loader screen and then it freezes, and then to some text with no gUI if i go crazy on the keyboard while the ubuntu startup screen is loading that tells me to login and password, what
[10:53] <kristoffer_> should i do now and how can i enter gRUB, like it sais on the guide?
[10:54] <jrib> kristoffer_: just choose the earlier kernel in grub
[10:54] <kristoffer_> jrib how do i enter it?
[10:54] <Dori922> dddbmt:  okey so in /home primary partition all users are added and in that partition their own directories are stored(ie user1 has "User1Homedir" with a 20gb disk quota and permissions to only access that folder)..
[10:54] <jrib> kristoffer_: hold shift during boot
[10:54] <xxzz> hello where i can find netbook edition download
[10:54] <Lasers> !unr | xxzz
[10:54] <kristoffer_> jrib ok ill try
[10:55] <dddbmt> Dori922, huh?
[10:55] <Dori922> woops
[10:55] <xxzz> ok so i get 32 bit and install it, i trust the same should work with kbuntu then
[10:55] <damo22> Dori922: yes
[10:56] <Dori922> thanks :D damo22 !
[10:56] <dddbmt> ;)
[10:56] <aeplus> xxzz, i got 11.04 installed on my mini9 with 4gigs of hd space... it requires some workarounds
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> there is a 3rd party ppa for the old netbook interface if you desire it...
[10:57] <skpl> damo22, well what i did was install gnome shell and i know this breaks unity, so what i would like to do is select gnome-shell from the gdm menu buit i have my computer set to login automatically, which it is trying to do unsuccesfuylly right now, is there anyway to load gdm without having started X yet?
[10:57] <damo22> Dori922: once you have the partitioning done and grub installed, you should back up the MBR for your server so should you lose the partition table you can recover the /home partition with all their data
[10:57] <padi999> Hi all, I would like to ask if there exist a simple and quick image-by-image editor for only changing image-name and meta data, nothing else. I would like this for pix from the digicam to archive the images correctly and not open each one individually in gimp (yes, gimp is great but not for this kind of task. Please don't TLDR' me ^^, thx!)
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> padi999: shotwell maybe
[10:58] <xxzz> aeplus, space no issue. i have 250 gig
[10:59] <awise12> !info picasa | padi999
[10:59] <awise12> !info fotoxx | padi999
[10:59] <damo22> skp1: not sure what you have done im no expert on gnome but you can try sudo service gdm stop; sudo service gdm start
[10:59] <aeplus> xxzz, oh... nm, with 250gb it sounds like a desktop replacement
[10:59] <xxzz> aeplus, yeah
[10:59] <skpl> damo22,  ok i will
[11:00] <padi999> awise12 and ActionParsnip thank you
[11:00] <xxzz> trying to get that on Eee PC 1011PX
[11:00] <aple1> ActionParsnip: Yeah, good checksum :)
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> aple1: good
[11:01] <skpl> damo22, no, that didnt bring up the login screen
[11:01] <teddyroosebelt> is it worth running dist-upgrade for the new 11.10A update?
[11:01] <jrib> padi999: try exiv2 if you want something command-line or just use your favorite language's exif library
[11:01] <damo22> skp1: check the Xorg logs in /var/log/Xorg...
[11:01] <Dori922> damo22: thanks a mil for this :D
[11:02] <skpl> damo22, what should i be looking for?
[11:02] <damo22> Dori922: no worries
[11:02] <padi999> jrib: obviously I need to see the image I am metatagging/renaming while I go through the images
[11:02] <damo22> skp1: (EE) or (WW)
[11:02] <jrib> padi999: so?
[11:03] <padi999> so a commandline tool does not help here
[11:03] <padi999> What I need is a program that shows me a picture and editable metadata on the side and the name of the file, too. Then an arrow that sends me to the next picture, simple, right?
[11:03] <jrib> padi999: it depends on how you want to do it.  Just offering you options
[11:04] <skpl> damo22, i got a fatal server error
[11:05] <padi999> This is for ehancing the workflow of the process.
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> padi999: shotwell and f-spot allow metadata editing and renaming....
[11:05] <damo22> skp1: does the error message fit on one line?
[11:05] <padi999> ActionParsnip: ActionParsnip perfect
[11:06] <michael_p> ubuntu can except all graphics cards cause mine is a xfx 250 gts

[11:06] <padi999> ActionParsnip: Of course a lot of programs provide what I need but I need to have easy access to that. Not having to click through all  menues on every picture
[11:06] <guest34> padi what's your interest in metatagging and renaming about
[11:06] <skpl> damo22, alli wanna do is load my login screen so i can select gnome-shell as my session
[11:07] <padi999> guest34: sorting
[11:08] <guest34> that's rather vauge. the reason i ask is because i am very into tagging, semantics and organization.
[11:09] <skpl> damo22, when i tried restartingt the gdm it just proceeded to log me in autmatically
[11:09] <padi999> guest34: Well, I have different people in every image and I would like to be able to say "show all pictures containing person X"
[11:09] <skpl> or try to anyw3ay, i cant get in
[11:09] <burg> will ubuntu11.10 come with gnome too? or just unity?
[11:09] <aple1> How can I tell if my PC is compatible with Ubuntu 64?
[11:09] <Seryth> .__.
[11:09] <Seryth> aple1 can you run 64bit applications?
[11:10] <devcalais> How do I forcefully close an open application? Sort of a CTRL+ALT+DEL method.. ?
[11:10] <guest34> yes padi. that's exactly what i want, for like all information oO i am actively working to become set up for this. how committed are you to the endeavor?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> burg: unity will run in gnome. unity is not a DE
[11:10] <tonysan> My server constantly  eats out swap, and then thrashing. I believe it is due to mysql server tuning, how do I detect thrashing in cron?
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> aple1: if you are using a Ubuntu guest OS, then you need to see if your CPU will run 64bit guest OSes. Not all 64bit CPUs can do this
[11:10] <burg> ActionParsnip, i`ve just installed 11.10 beta in virtual machine, and i noticed that i can`t chose to login with gnome 2 (like in 11.04)
[11:10] <padi999> guest34: phew, I just started browsing on the topic and I cannot imagine noone ever wanted to do something like this. ^^
[11:11] <Badgerpoo> Fixed my ipv6 issue, when you firewall all ipv6 traffic it doesn't work!  Please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU."
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> burg: Oneiric uses Gnome3
[11:11] <aple1> ActionParsnip: That's probably the problem then.
[11:11] <Seryth> aple1 it's probably VB set up wrong
[11:11] <aple1> Seryth: O rly?
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> aple1: then you should check your BIOS has the virtual 64bit guests feature enabled
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> aple1: check if your CPU also can perform the function
[11:12] <Seryth> aple1 have you got the 64 bit version of VB?
[11:12] <damo22> skpl: did you get gnome-shell from a ppa?
[11:12] <devcalais> Whats the terminal command to find what your active processes are?
[11:12] <devcalais> :P
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> aple1: I suggest you take the easy road and use 32bit Ubuntu
[11:12] <Seryth> devcalais have you got htop installed?
[11:12] <padi999> guest34: the suggestion by ActionParsnip to use Shotwell is actually quite good, I'd say. Just need to find the shortcut to "modify tags" and "renaming" and I'm good to go
[11:12] <burg> ActionParsnip, so it won`t come by default with the classic desktop look? only this new unity?
[11:12] <damo22> devcalais: ps
[11:12] <aple1> Seryth: Yeah I got the 64bit VBox
[11:12] <skpl> damo22,  yes
[11:12] <guest34> padi i feel this is one of the most pressing matters to the computer, internet, information, searching, that hasn't been adequately satsified. i am learning programming almost entirely for this very matter
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> burg: yes, Unity with effects (via compiz) or unity-2D
[11:13] <Seryth> aple1 Hm, make sure you set up the virtual machine right
[11:13] <aple1> ActionParsnip: I'll take your advice on this one. I don't see what I'd use 64bit for anyway.
[11:13] <burg> ah, too bad. i don`t like unity at all
[11:13] <devcalais> htop? I'd guess not.
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> burg: if you want the classic look, I suggest you install XUbuntu and use that
[11:13] <aple1> Seryth: I'm pretty sure I did. Is there anything I should be particularly mindful of to make it 64bit friendly?
[11:13] <guest34> padi i request we stay in touch to have more eyes on the matter so to speak
[11:13] <damo22> skpl:you could purge the ppa and revert to unity
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> burg: or some other DE, you can stil use Gnome based apps in KDE / XFCE / LXDE etc
[11:13] <Seryth> devcalais don't worry. Htop is a resources watcher/manager, sort of like win task manager (sudo apt-get install htop)
[11:13] <kristoffer_> jrib ok i found grub and tried with all the 3 older kernels that was on the list but it doesent go any longer than the ubuntu startup loader then it says on my screen "no signal" and my screen turns of, its because i uinstalled NVIDIA drivers like it said in the guide right? what can i do now?
[11:14] <skpl> damo22, i cant get logged in
[11:14] <Seryth> aple1 considering I don't use VB, I've got no clue :P. Just use 32 bit ;)
[11:14] <devcalais> Seryth: cheers, I'll give it browse. Time to browse more manuals.
[11:14] <Seryth> :)
[11:14] <guest34> or combine our observations on it
[11:14] <aple1> haha dammit I was going to but you kept telling me it was a config problem :D
[11:14] <damo22> skpl: do you have network?
[11:14] <jrib> kristoffer_: can you get to a tty?  Or recovery mode in one of the older kernels?
[11:14] <aple1> Wanted to sort that out
[11:14] <aple1> Ok, 32-bit'n this
[11:14] <Seryth> ;)
[11:14] <Seryth> bildramer was here O.o
[11:15] <Seryth> damn
[11:15] <skpl> damo22, im not sure
[11:15] <damo22> skpl: from console type ping -c 3 www.google.com
[11:15] <guest34> i'm currently working on learning rdf. linking in linux may also have potential. i have only begun to learn linux. i also envision some software for automatically analyzing pages for easier input for tags
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> aple1: could use the minimal ISO and install from the web :)
[11:16] <guest34> computer vision seems quite primitive, and i am not about to wait until that gets sorted out. is software to more easily tag what you are looking for?
[11:16] <kristoffer_> jrib, whats tty? i tried recovery mode and it comes to a screen with alot of text
[11:16] <jrib> kristoffer_: install the nvidia drivers there
[11:16] <kristoffer_> jrib how do i install them?
[11:17] <jrib> kristoffer_: how did you do it before?  How did you uninstall them?
[11:17] <unicum> yet again.. any ideas as to why UBUNTU is not able to connect to an ad-hoc network? (secured or open, doesn't matter) - ewlist wlan0 scan does actually list the network, so does network manager.. but stupuntu won't connect
[11:17] <aple1> ActionParsnip: The 32-bit .iso? S'what I'm doin'!
[11:18] <kristoffer_> jrib i dissabled it in the ubuntu gui
[11:18] <awise12> unicum: stupuntu ?
[11:18] <jrib> kristoffer_: use jockey-text
[11:18] <unicum> yes.. it's throwing to matching words together.. stupid and ubuntu
[11:18] <kristoffer_> jrib and then?
[11:18] <awise12> !wisreless | unicum
[11:18] <awise12> !wireless | unicum
[11:19] <unicum> yah.. thx.. i've been through this a bazillion times
[11:19] <skpl> damo22, yeah i have networking, how do i purge the ppa?
[11:20] <awise12> unicum: i' using a wifi at the moment and it works flawlesly ;)
[11:20] <unicum> i didn't say wireless doesn't work
[11:20] <unicum> i said connecting wireless to an ad-hoc doesn't work
[11:20] <damo22> skpl: cat /etc/apt/sources.list and find the name of the ppa
[11:20] <Seryth> therefore wireless doesn't work
[11:20] <Seryth> lol
[11:22] <skpl> damo22, i dont see it, how do i scroll up?
[11:22] <fileserver> Hey everyone
[11:22] <damo22> skpl: shift pageup
[11:22] <fileserver> could anyone tell me how to set up a decent nas on ubuntu
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> aple1: you can use the 12Mb minimal ISO  which will install using packages over the web. Very cool
[11:23] <skpl> damo22, i donts see it anywhere
[11:23] <damo22> skpl: should be a line in that file such as
[11:23] <damo22> skpl: deb http://ppa....
[11:24] <Pies> hello
[11:24] <guest34> hiya
[11:25] <Pies> when I'm trying "route del <IP_ADDRESS>" I get "SIOCDELRT: No such process". How i can delete that route?
[11:25]  * awise12 is reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[11:25] <th0r> Pies: using sudo?
[11:25] <Pies> running as root
[11:25] <Pies> other routes deleted without problems
[11:26] <damo22> Pies: are you sure that route still exists?
[11:26] <aeplus> pies, is that a valid route?
[11:26] <Pies> yeah, route returns it
[11:26] <_ruben> route's depreciated in favor of the 'ip' command .. and one might need to specify the subnetmask as well
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> Pies: could restart the networking service, see if it helps
[11:27] <damo22> Pies: i have experience with some VPN software that stuffs up the routing table under linux
[11:28] <Pies> http://paste.ubuntu.com/683443/
[11:28] <skpl> damo22, its not there
[11:29] <Pies> ActionParsnip: /etc/init.d/networking restart ? was trying that too
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> Pies: sudo service networking restart      is the new way
[11:30] <damo22> skpl: ls /etc/apt/
[11:30] <Pies> I should add any params?
[11:30] <damo22> skpl: see if theres a separate file with a ppa
[11:30] <szal> "service"?  isn't that Fedora?
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> Pies: should be fine
[11:31] <Pies> damo22: don't have any VPN, only wicd is managing my network, but that shouldn't make me unable to delete route
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> szal: possibly
[11:31] <Pies> ActionParsnip: restart: Unknown instance:
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> Pies: i see
[11:31] <glebihan> szal, "service" is related to upstart, which has been used by ubuntu for a few releases now
[11:31] <szal> the 'upstart way' would be: sudo stop networking && sudo start networking
[11:31] <felipe__> hi!
[11:32] <kristoffer_> jrib ok i found grub and tried with all the 3 older kernels that was on the list but it doesent go any longer than the ubuntu startup loader then it says on my screen "no signal" and my screen turns of, its because i uinstalled NVIDIA drivers like it said in the guide right? what can i do now?
[11:32] <daavis> is it so hard for Ubuntu creators to make all file supports on audacious. In my case - *.wma. There was also problems with playing *.mkv files but luckily Totem came with support wich worked great. File support problems are very bad thing if the target is windows users as well
[11:32] <_ruben> Pies: sudo ip route del <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[11:33] <ubuntu_> getting this with compiz --relace :http://pastebin.com/XeVCkVNp . How to solve it?
[11:33] <Pies> _ruben: thanks!
[11:33] <Pies> it seems it worked
[11:33] <glebihan> szal, "start servicename" is a synonym to "service servicename start"
[11:34] <ubuntu_> getting this with compiz --relace :http://pastebin.com/XeVCkVNp . How to solve it? Using Lubuntu. same problem with debain 6.0(LXDE)
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_: I'd ask in #compiz too
[11:35] <trinity> new to linux and i love it.  so here is a question i hope somene can help me with.  im trying to find and ip by screen name, or see what all ip' are used by that screen name. is it possible
[11:35] <damo22> skpl: grep -r ppa /etc/apt
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_: I've not seen LXDE run compiz, maybe it needs some extra packages or settings. I'm sure the #compiz guys will be able to help
[11:35] <jrib> trinity: define "screen name"
[11:35] <explora> .clear
 hope so. LXDE + compiz works AWESOME in Knoppix so inspired from it.
[11:36] <trinity> lets say frank123@yahoo.   i guess i should have said email address
 can you understand something from the paste
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_: coolio
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_: not myself, I'm not too conversant with compiz. Only just started using it in Oneiric. I usually use LXDE + openbox
[11:38] <skpl> damo22,  ok i found it
[11:38] <skpl> how do i purge it?
[11:38] <damo22> skpl: what is it
[11:38] <trinity> there are sum great tutorial in compiz on you tube very ez to follow
[11:38] <xxzz> i cant get unetbootin to create bootable usb on asus pc
 Oneiric.... too fast. I want to install lubuntu on pendrive but want to use compiz also. Lets see of somebody sees to it :)
[11:38] <damo22> skpl: ppa.launchpad.net/....?
[11:38] <xxzz> wtf
[11:39] <skpl> damo22, yeah
[11:39] <damo22> skpl: i need the actual words after that
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[11:39] <xxzz> yes
[11:40] <skpl> damo22, it says gnome3-team/gnome3./ubuntu natty main
[11:40] <jadahl> If I want to create a wiki page (or whatever) containing information how to solve issues after installing Ubuntu on a certain laptop, where should I go and add this?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: ok does unetbootin run through ok and create the USB device ok?
[11:40] <xxzz> yes
[11:40] <xxzz> doesnt report any errors
[11:41] <damo22> skpl: okay, sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> jadahl: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/   just add an extra word on the end and you can make the new page
[11:41] <xxzz> what needs to be done here
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: ok and so you keep the stick in and reboot the system, then tell the BIOS to boot USB. What happens?
[11:41] <tasslehoff> What does the start/end in "xrandr --verbose" mean for a given timing?
[11:41] <skpl> damo22: it says command not found
[11:41] <jadahl> ActionParsnip: is this the recommended place? see, I already did, but on help.ubuntu.com/community
[11:42] <xxzz> it boots the hard disk
[11:42] <damo22> !find ppa-purge
[11:42] <damno> a frnd of mine sent me a folder containing some mp3 files. not as an archive. he sent the whole folder. aftr recieving, its being shown as a tar archive and cant be open. anything can be done?
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> jadahl: Its a place, not sure about recomended, could add it to the !hcl site too
[11:42] <damno> through IM
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> jadahl: there's also here http://linux-laptop.net/
[11:42] <damo22> skpl: sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: did you change the boot order?
[11:43] <glebihan> ubuntu_, did you try launching compiz by using fusion-icon ? (this has solved some issues for me in the past) Also do you have a custom xorg.conf file ?
[11:43] <SMJ> when I log in, KDE fills my screen with all sorts of programs I may have used days ago.. how do I disable session saving, and why is it enabled by default?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> damo22: tar xvf filename
[11:43] <skpl> damo22: ok
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> damo22: or install unp and use unp to extract everything
  didn't tried icon. xorg.conf file---- where is it?
[11:44] <jadahl> maybe Ubuntu Friendly will be the future place for these kinds of things
[11:44] <damo22> ActionParsnip: damno, not damo22
[11:44] <xxzz> ActionParsnip, yes i did
[11:44] <jadahl> or whatever it was
[11:44] <glebihan> ubuntu_, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:44] <damno> ActionParsnip: aint working
[11:44] <damno> ActionParsnip: this isnt a tar archive after all
[11:44] <SMJ> okay, found it
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> damno: what is the output of:   file filename
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> damno: the file comamnd will tell you what it is
[11:45] <damno> ActionParsnip: "SPANISH GUITAR.tar: data"
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> damno: gah
[11:45] <damno> ActionParsnip: I tried opening it with nautilus  didnt work
[11:45] <damno> :D
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> damno: not sure there, could ask the sender to archive the data and resend
[11:46] <damo22> skpl: sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
[11:46] <Eliasmaster> Hi, I asked this question already today, but I left for school and forgot what to do ;_;. So when I try to boot to Ubuntu (I have installed via Wubi) from the windows boot menu, normally GRUB  boot menu comes to ask which kernel version (or something like that) I want to use, but today it boots to this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/683453/
 Ok and what to do with it?
[11:46] <groundup> I just restarted my computer and now the file system is read only
[11:46] <damno> ActionParsnip: yeah.. thats wat I hoped wont have to be done :D
[11:46] <groundup> It's 10.10 if that makes a difference
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> damno: you may be able to use foremost on it and extract files..
[11:47] <damo22> Eliasmaster: type "root (hd0,<TAB>
[11:47] <glebihan> ubuntu_, you actually have that file ? could you pastebin it so I can have a look ?
[11:47] <damo22> Eliasmaster: sorry no "
[11:48] <Eliasmaster> aww
[11:48] <Eliasmaster> so when I select 'Ubuntu' it boots to that
[11:48] <damno> ActionParsnip: okey.. lemme try. Thanks for the help.
[11:49] <damo22> Eliasmaster: does that bring up anything?
[11:49] <groundup> When I run mount - http://pastebin.com/Ue0KxmbS
[11:49] <Sidewinder1> groundup, This may sound condisending/stupid, but did you forget to remove the LiveCD?
[11:49] <Eliasmaster> Well actually, I will try it soon, I booted to windows to access IRC
[11:49] <Eliasmaster> so "root (hd0,<TAB>"
[11:49] <Eliasmaster> TAB is where I press TAB
[11:50] <groundup> Not a stupid question. I will check (it is in the server room)
 NO. nothing like xorg . I have xsession  :(
[11:50] <damo22> Eliasmaster: <TAB> means press tab
[11:50] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:50] <tux_matt> hey
[11:50] <damo22> Eliasmaster: but that wont boot anything yet
 using emerald and getting less errors : http://pastebin.com/SQbsjgAm
[11:51] <damo22> Eliasmaster: that will bring up a list of partitions you can boot from
[11:51] <groundup> Sidewinder1: no liveCD in there
[11:51] <glebihan> ubuntu_, does compiz launch this time ?
[11:52] <Sidewinder1> groundup, It was just a thought..
[11:52] <damo22> Eliasmaster: do you have another pc with internet you can log into irc and do this at the same time?
[11:52] <Eliasmaster> no
[11:52] <Eliasmaster> But I have my phone
[11:52] <Eliasmaster> with internet
[11:52] <Eliasmaster> I will be the one named 'Viderizer'
[11:52] <fr0sted> hey all, anyone know any decent tools that allow you full access to the iphone 4 from ubuntu ?
[11:53] <damo22> Eliasmaster: well youre gonna be stuck at the bootloader for a while i think
 No. getting same a teminal with fallback.... need to do openbox--replace in the same terminal...
[11:53] <Eliasmaster> damo22: would it be possible just copy all my files somehow and reinstall ubuntu?
 What is the error the pastebin says...? Anything missing need to intall
[11:54] <glebihan> ubuntu_, it's an error with color depth (I think it should be 24 bits and not 32 bits) but I don't know where this should be configured now
[11:54] <damo22> Eliasmaster: you can always boot a livecd and mount the hard drive to back up, you should already have a backup before you play with the pc
 Ok
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> Eliasmaster: why not just use your backup...
[11:55] <jasef> I just installed Gnome 3 on 11.04, kinda dissapointed that I can't find a place to change the window theme, and my touchpad doesnt turn back on after I turn it off even though the touchpad on symbol comes up on the screen
[11:55] <Eliasmaster> I don't have a backup :/
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> jasef: gnome3 isn't stable in natty
[11:55] <jasef> I've noticed :P
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> Eliasmaster: why not? Your drive motor could randomly fail....
[11:56] <Eliasmaster> I have only a backup with windows...
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> jasef: every guide you find warns you that it's not too...
[11:56] <damo22> Eliasmaster: do you have an external drive with your files on it?
[11:56] <Eliasmaster> no :/
[11:56] <n20> Anyone here know a thing or two about reversed zones with bind9?
[11:56] <Eliasmaster> well
[11:56] <jasef> ActionParsnip, I know, I was ready for it to not be stable :P, I'm always downloading betas and unstable stuff, I'll be installing 11.10 tomorrow to see how Gnome 3 works in that.
[11:56] <Eliasmaster> I did a Norton backup
[11:57] <Eliasmaster> and put the backup files to a CD
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> jasef: works fine here ;)
[11:57] <Eliasmaster> but It is just for windows
[11:57] <damo22> Eliasmaster: do you have any important files in linux?
[11:57] <Eliasmaster> No
[11:57] <Eliasmaster> I'd just hate to loose all my setups for programs etc.
[11:58] <jasef> ActionParsnip, Awesome... I can't wait to get home so I can finish my jigdo download and install it
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> jasef: could just use torrents..
[11:58] <damo22> Eliasmaster: do you have a ubuntu livecd?
[11:58] <Eliasmaster> damo22: no
[11:58]  * Sidewinder1 Is paranoid and has back-ups of back-ups.
[11:58] <mohsen> What is the official repository Ubuntu?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> Eliasmaster: thats why you occasionally backup said configs, then you won't lose them is catastrophe strikes
[11:59] <sveinse> What happens if an installed file belonging to a package is deleted? I mean, does the missing file make apt/dpkg complain upon upgrade or uninstalls?
[11:59] <Eliasmaster> ActionParsnip: I will know that now on the future
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> sveinse: it will be reinstated next time the package is updated
[12:00] <jasef> ActionParsnip, I could, yeah. But I haven't got any ports forwarded to my netbook, so jigdo works just fine.
[12:00] <sivik> how does one disable ipv6 for iptables?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> jasef: torrents work here and the only port forwarded is the web ui port I use.
[12:00] <plouffe> ActionParsnip, is there a Ubuntu tool to backup all configs?
[12:00] <damo22> Eliasmaster: i have 2 external usb hard drives as separate backups
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> sivik: add the boot option:  ipv6.disable=1
[12:01] <xro> Hi, i configured my nagios server/client... But i would like to add some check... is there somewhere a list of nagios services and also the according command for the nrpe_local.cfg file? i'm looking for a while
[12:01] <mohsen> What is the official repository of Ubuntu for full download?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> plouffe: i use cp in a cron job, the configs are in the hidden folders in $HOME
[12:01] <sivik> ActionParsnip, is that for ipv6 or just the iptables for ipv6?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> sivik: all ipv6
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> !download | mohsen
[12:01] <plouffe> ActionParsnip, some aren't in home though, e.g. Apache
[12:01] <sivik> So there is to just disable the firewall rules for ipv6 without totally disabling ipv6?
[12:01] <jasef> ActionParsnip, :P I have got none forwarded, so I'll just live with jigdo for now, I'm getting about 300kB/s anyway when it's running
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> mohsen: the source is moot, as long as the file matches the official hashes, then the source is irrelevant
[12:01] <Sidewinder1> !repository > mohsen
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> plouffe: then you'd need to add those to your scope
[12:02] <sivik> ActionParsnip, I just want to disable the iptables portion of ipv6 and not ipv6 totally
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> sivik: gotcha
[12:03] <xxzz> hmm i tried different stick but it still doesnt work
[12:03] <Eliasmaster> damo22: I will start reinstalling Ubuntu now, as I don't have any important files there, it seems the easiest way
[12:04] <xxzz> tried YUMI as well
[12:04] <xxzz> whats wrong with this thing
[12:04] <damo22> Eliasmaster: thats the easy way, but there might be a way to recover
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: tried usb-creator
[12:05] <plouffe> ActionParsnip, synaptic has an option to keep or delete configs. Is it possible to use that to also save/backup configs?
[12:05] <xxzz> nope
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: and the 1 2 3 application, if you are using windows
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> plouffe: synaptic only install packages and updates, so I doubt it
[12:05] <xxzz> ok
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> !backup | plouffe
[12:05] <padi999> guest34: you have to start using my full nickname when writing, I get a highlight only then. Otherwise I assume all the text is not for me.
[12:05] <xxzz> let me check
[12:05] <fr0sted> hey all does anyone know of any application that i can use ( kinda like windows explorer looking ) for ssh'ing to my iphone?
[12:06] <damo22> Eliasmaster: but support from damo22 has finished for the day
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> fr0sted: ssh can do ssh
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> fr0sted: its in a default install
[12:06] <fr0sted> ActionParsnip: ye i know, i  mean a gui app
[12:06] <sivik> any way to disable ip6tables?
[12:07] <Pici> fr0sted: nautilus can view scp/sftp 'shares'
[12:07] <fr0sted> Pici:  ye i also thought of this with filezilla, but cant seem to connect to the iphone
[12:07] <plouffe> ActionParsnip, I didn't mean from synaptic, but making a config backup tool based on the info that synaptic has should be possible
[12:07] <plouffe> ActionParsnip, thanks for the link
[12:08] <fr0sted> oh nvm, got it, but thanks
[12:08] <xxzz> ActionParsnip, whats 1 2 3 application
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> xxzz: its from pendrivelinux site
[12:09] <xxzz> k
[12:09] <jasef> ActionParsnip, well, I'mma go home and set the download for 11.10 going again... getting really annoyed with this title bar colour :(
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> JasseT: which titlebar?
[12:14] <ethanol> does ubuntu do some weird shit that makes the file system case sensitive and not case sensitive at the same time?
[12:15] <tsimpson> ethanol: first, please watch your language. second, no it doesn't, and it doesn't really make sense
[12:16] <IdleOne> ethanol: can you give an example of what you mean?
[12:16] <ethanol> well it's weird, cause I am checking for the existence of files in php (which uses system calls) and I get back true, even when it does not match casewise
[12:16] <ethanol> it says /var/www/matthew.admin/INC/Controller/Tools/mysql.php exists, while it is actually Mysql.php
[12:17] <ethanol> and I'm pretty sure my filesystem is case sensitive, cause I can create both tmp and TMP in the same folder :<
[12:17] <tsimpson> did you check if PHP checks case sensitive?
[12:17] <ethanol> I asked in ##php, they say it uses information provided by the system

[12:18] <javier_> Hi. I'm quite new in Ubuntu. I installed Digikam but looked uggly and unfortunatelly instaled kubuntu-desktop to see if it looked nice. Now I've got hundred of "k" programs, and I don't know who to delete all them at once. Someone can help me? How to delete everything I instaled from kubuntu?
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> javier_: remove the qt libs and everything kde will fail deps and be marked for uninstallation
[12:19] <jrib> !puregnome  | javier_
[12:19] <javier_> so... sudo apt-get remove pt-libs?
[12:19] <coz_> javier_,  or go here  http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[12:20] <javier_> qt, sorry
[12:20] <coz_> javier_,  however the command to remove all of kde  is quite long so get it all if you use that link
[12:20] <javier_> coz_ I found in google that link, but it didn't work
[12:21] <coz_> javier_,  did you copy the etire command to remove?
[12:21] <javier_> either, when usind command "sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop" is not a large list of packages that are removed, but a few only
[12:21] <javier_> yes, the complete command
[12:22] <damo22> how do i disable screensaver permanently? it doesnt seem to honour the settings in the gui settings page
[12:22] <coz_> javier_,  let me get the entire command and let you see it  hold on
[12:23] <IdleOne> javier_: use the command which lists all the packages or you can do what ActionParsnip suggested.
[12:23] <coz_> javier_,  see if this was the command you used    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/kde%20remove.txt
[12:23] <damo22> ive tried xset dpms force on and a number of other things
[12:24] <wesley_> ]
[12:24] <wesley_> fala
[12:25] <IdleOne> !br | wesley_
[12:25] <Abel> hello
[12:25] <javier_> coz_ that's it, I used that one
[12:25] <groundup> I think my read-only filesystem is because I accidentally used the wrong command when I tried to shut it down. I used halt instead of shutdown. Then I unplugged it.  I can't seem to get this working. Some images are stated to be from 2020 and some from 1945 ^^
[12:25] <wesley_> fala manuu
[12:25] <wesley_> como vai vcs
[12:26] <coz_> javier_,  that should have removed all of kde  for sure... did you log off and back on to check?
[12:26] <javier_> what I get is a short message saying about a few packets that are not instaled so they won't be removed, and finally doesnt remove any
[12:26] <oCean> !br | wesley_
[12:26] <snufft> hey guys
[12:26] <javier_> i didnt log off, but it didn't look like it did remove more than just a few Megabites
[12:26] <javier_> I will try that
[12:27] <usr13> groundup: Just curring the power, or a non-clean shutdown?  That shouldn't have done it, unless it is a hard drive failure in progress
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> padi999: not sure man, I just use it as a viewer/storer possibly right clicking on an image and changing it.
[12:27] <snufft> i've just grabbed phpmyadmin from the respoitory. is there a localhost entry added by default? eg, using XAMPP on windows, localhost/phpmyadmin takes me to phpmyadmin.
[12:27] <groundup> usr13: I am stuck in read-only
[12:27] <groundup> http://pastebin.com/tZz6pA7c
[12:28] <bbbbbbbb> sometimes, about 1-2 times a day, my system (mint 11) just freezes for no apparent reason, leaving me only to reset the damn thing - what could cause that?
[12:28] <Pici> snufft: I believe  you'll need to drop a symlink to /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf in /etc/apache2/conf.d/
[12:28] <oCean> bbbbbbbb: mint is not supported here
[12:28] <coz_> groundup,   out of curiosity  in terminal     df -h    see if the drive is full
[12:28] <tsimpson> !mint | bbbbbbbb
[12:28] <snufft> Pici: no worries. thanks :)
[12:29] <usr13> groundup: Have you booted to LiveCD to look at the situation?
[12:29] <padi999> ActionParsnip: well, one can change the Event but there is no compilation to a valid date
[12:29] <usr13> groundup: Or are you still in this session?
[12:29] <snufft> also, what's the shortcut to open terminal straight away? i've been using Alt + F2, writing bash and telling it to open in terminal, haha
[12:29] <darthubious> hi guys! can anyone lease recommend me some webcamera that works with ubuntu and skype with just plug and play???
[12:30] <usr13> groundup: Yep, looks like a hard drive failure. "errors=remount-ro"
[12:30] <hiwk> snufft: I think the preset one is ctrl+alt+t
[12:31] <usr13> darthubious: Most of the  do
[12:31] <snufft> hiwk: thanks heaps! :D
[12:32] <usr13> darthubious: I don't know how up-to-date this site is but:  http://www.linux-drivers.org/usb_webcams.html
[12:33] <[-supNow-> hello usr13 and actionparsnip: Thanks for your help yesterday I was able to figure it out. So that you guys are aware in case anyone else runs into this issue... In order for windows to format and install on a disk that was previously formatted for ubuntu it has to be the only drive plugged into the system. Strange as it sounds and as little sense it makes it's the only thing that worked.
[12:33] <darthubious> usr13, thank you very much. I was looking at some UVC driver compatible webcams. this will help :)
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> [-supNow-: very strange.
[12:34] <[-supNow-> yes it was I never had that issue in the past... maybe it's natty?
[12:34] <[-supNow-> natty don't wanna leave the drive... lol
[12:34] <[-supNow-> as soon as I unplugged my other drives it loaded with no issues with only the windoze disk
[12:34] <[-supNow-> and my ubuntu is happily installed on my other drive!
[12:34] <usr13> [-supNow-: Sorry, I guess we assumed that you knew that MS Windows only boots (and installs to)  the primary drive.  Sorry we overlooked that issue.  .. Will try to remember that next time.
[12:34] <javier_> kubuntu wasn¡'t removed
[12:35] <[-supNow-> np you guys were a big help and jumped right on my issue :0
[12:35] <[-supNow-> I gotta work but I'm gonna start idling in here as I plan to be primarily ubuntu and have gotten about 10 people on it already! :)
[12:36] <jinu> how to configure TPM on ubuntu 10.04?
[12:37] <usr13> [-supNow-: We try, but if we don't have specific information about the hardware and other details, we may go of the track in advising people.  I know I do from time to time.  I get the wrong idea and start chasing the wrong issue.
[12:37] <groundup> Sorry, now I am trying to get SSH to work again
[12:37] <groundup> So I can at least work on this from my desk instead of in a freezing cold server room room
[12:37] <usr13> groundup: What's the problem?
[12:38] <trane2> salut
[12:38] <slipttees> please help, http://pastebin.com/3B9UVHZA
[12:38] <slipttees> cd-creator problem
[12:39] <slipttees> usb-creator
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: so you run usb-creator and it makes that error?
[12:40] <trane2> hi, do you know a chan for french ubuntu users
[12:40] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, format usb stick
[12:40] <usr13> slipttees: sudo fdisk -l |pastebinit  #Send resulting URL
[12:40] <groundup> usr13: the drive is far from full (8% usage) and I haven't tried a LiveCD. I guess that is the next option
[12:40] <Q-FUNK> hi!  how do I make apport go through all the unsent crash reports saved in /var/crash and get around sending them?
[12:41] <slipttees> usr13, http://pastebin.com/3dDb6kMw
[12:41] <usr13> groundup: df -i
[12:42] <slipttees> usr13, have no idea?
[12:43] <usr13> slipttees: So this is a 2G flash drive?
[12:43] <slipttees> yes usr13
[12:43] <MonkeyDust> about df -i : what is 'inode information'?
[12:43] <groundup> usr13: http://pastebin.com/cSbN4miA
[12:43] <usr13> slipttees: May be just a bad stick.
[12:43] <slipttees> usr13, ipod
[12:43] <usr13> MonkeyDust: Yes
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> usr13: I mean: what does inode inforamtion mean?
[12:44] <usr13> slipttees: What exactly are you trying to do?
[12:45] <slipttees> usr13, make usb bootable e install ubuntu on ntebook
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: delete the partition and make a FAT16 partition on it, then use the usb-creator, may help
[12:46] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, humm.. i try
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: wait, is it an iPod?
[12:46] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, i can use gparted?
[12:46] <usr13> An inode is a data structure on a traditional Unix-style file system such as UFS. An inode stores all the information about a regular file, directory, or other file system object, except its data and name. When you format a partition, the process assigns just so many inodes.  If you end up with lots and lots of very small files, it's possible to run out of inodes and it will act as if the drive is full, but it is really just out of inodes.
[12:47] <GeorgeJ> libapache2-mod-fastcgi or libapache2-mod-fcgid?
[12:47] <xosuitehearts> hey there guys
[12:47] <xosuitehearts> I need some help with something really quick
[12:47] <MonkeyDust> tnx usr13
[12:47] <usr13> NP
[12:47] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, YES, iPod Shuffle 2GB 3Generation
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: not sure how ipods are with being formatted and such, I'd hold off, see if others can advise better
[12:48] <usr13> slipttees: And it is an ipod ?
[12:48] <slipttees> usr13, yes, ipod shuffle
[12:49] <xosuitehearts> Are there any SSL plugins for Xchat?
[12:49] <slipttees> i doesnt have other stick here
[12:49] <usr13> slipttees: Humm.. well.  I dono.  Do you have another flash drive? Just try another one.
[12:49] <tarelerulz> why format an ipod ? slipttiees
[12:49] <xosuitehearts> ones that i can get off the ubuntu market?
[12:49] <slipttees> tarelerulz, fat16
[12:49] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, gparted can find my stick
[12:49] <slipttees> =/
[12:49] <slipttees> cant**
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: does it show up in:   sudo fdisk -l
[12:50] <usr13> ActionParsnip: Yes  http://pastebin.com/3dDb6kMw
[12:50] <tarelerulz> From what I understand  they are formatted to fat 32 .  Your sounds old enough that it would be seen  like external hard drive anyways .
[12:51] <usr13> ActionParsnip: It is 2G
[12:51] <apocalyptiq> how can I check number of current console? number in /dev/pts/
[12:51] <slipttees> ActionParsnip,  http://pastebin.com/3dDb6kMw
[12:52] <usr13> apocalyptiq: exit
[12:52] <tarelerulz> If you get any ipod don't get ipod touch 2g .  I have one an had nothing but trouble.    Linux (ubuntu) don't see it at all. I have to ssh into ipod  and ssh mount it from there and that seem to be my only option
[12:52] <usr13> apocalyptiq: or   who
[12:53] <fujikofujio> anyone here using mysql-proxy on ubuntu?
[12:54] <SimonJai> anyone running ZFS in ubuntu?
[12:54] <auronandace> !zfs | SimonJai
[12:54] <SimonJai> kk
[12:55] <slipttees> ActionParsnip, no idea?
[12:55] <apocalyptiq> usr13, but "who" gives me list of terminals, i want to know which one is current :)
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> slipttees: not sure, I don't use apple rubbish
[12:56] <slipttees> :(
[12:57] <apocalyptiq> usr13, but thanks, who will be useful here too ;)
[12:58] <groundup> So, I ran  mount -o remount, /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root / and that enabled me to have a rw filesystem. When I restart, it goes back to read-only. So, it can work for now but it won't work for long.
[12:58] <usr13> apocalyptiq: Well, one way is to estimate the time it may have been opened, (in relation to the others).   Anyone know how to config a Network-Manager managed usb modem, by sending it some AT commands?
[13:00] <usr13> apocalyptiq:  And also, look at what is after the time. If is one that is logged into another terminal, it will say so, (and specify the other's IP or hostname).
[13:01] <GunClive> hi. i am looking for software that shows my gpu workload. thanks.

[13:03] <SimonJai> ahhhhhhh dajhorn

[13:06] <usr13> GunClive: htop is really nice I think.
[13:06] <javier_> Still with this problem: I installed Digikam but looked uggly and unfortunatelly instaled kubuntu-desktop to see if it looked nice. Now I've got hundred of "k" programs, and I don't know who to delete all them at once. Someone can help me? How to delete everything I instaled from kubuntu?

[13:07] <ActionParsnip> javier_: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  dpkg -l | grep lib | grep kde
[13:08] <photon> wth? every once in a while, especially when an error occurs, the appearance/theme of gnome switches to what looks like an old-style 90's layout and I have to manually switch it back. what could cause this?
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> photon: what is the output of:  lsb_release -sc
[13:09] <javier_> ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/683518/
[13:09] <photon> ActionParsnip: I'm on natty
[13:09] <TAndriamirado> hello. Anyone know how to config a Network-Manager managed usb modem, by sending it some AT commands?
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> javier_: sudo apt-get --purge remove http://paste.ubuntu.com/683518/
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> oops
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> javier_: sudo apt-get --purge remove kdelibs-bin
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> javier_: then run:  sudo apt-get --purge atoremove; sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop
[13:10] <photon> autoremove*
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> indeed
[13:10]  * ActionParsnip needs food
[13:10] <photon> ActionParsnip: any idea?
[13:11] <photon> I mean, it's really annoying. all my fonts change, the icons, the colors.
[13:11] <javier_> ActionParsnip: I will try that, but the first command I didn't understand it. Did you mean to write "sudo apt-get --purge remove http://paste.ubuntu.com/683518/"?
[13:11] <photon> javier_: no he did not.
[13:12] <Laurenceb> hi, is there a STEP viewer on ubuntu?
[13:12] <javier_> ok, that doesnt make sense :) So, from the other line. Thanks, it's doing it
[13:13] <usr13> javier_: leave off the URL  Just:  sudo apt-get --purge remove
[13:14] <usr13> javier_: Actually  just:  sudo apt-get --purge remove kdelibs-bin ; sudo apt-get --purge atoremove; sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop  #Is prolly all you need.
