[19:51] <tones> Etanol: it ignores the fstab
[19:51] <Dante123> new install of 9.04 64 bit, I have had the system lockup twice.  ctrl-alt-bkspace is disabled by default in 9.04.  How to reenable?
[19:51] <JoshJ> in xchat it's easy enough to do
[19:51] <deany> !dontzap
[19:51] <jrib> !dontzap | Dante123
[19:51] <Etanol> tones: this is what my root in fstab looks like:
[19:51] <Etanol> dmesg |grep mount
[19:51] <Etanol> ops wait
[19:51] <Etanol> UUID=bc09c65a-27ba-4a43-908e-05285436bf3c /               ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[19:52] <maynards-girl> how do i rip a cd to mp3 in ubunt 9.04?
[19:52] <JoshJ> Trolden, i'd look but i don't have my install finished yet so i can't give you the actual steps
[19:52] <tones> Etanol: thats fine, its just referring to a partition through its uuid
[19:52] <ch0de> what is the key combi nation to run terminal? I remember it was alt+t but it doesn not work
[19:52] <JoshJ> (windows xchat is a bit different)
[19:52] <deany> maynards-girl, apt-get install asunder
[19:52] <Slart> maynards-girl: use one of the many ripper programs.. search for rip cd in synaptic or similar words
[19:52] <mach> grip, ogmrip (how to rip CD)
[19:52] <th0r> maynards-girl: install grip
[19:52] <evantandersen> when i try to load a module, i have to modprobe it then insmod to get it to load. Either by itself does not work.
[19:52] <deany> i prefer rubyripper tho, as its more like EAC
[19:52] <tones> Etanol: try typing into a terminal "ps aux | grep hal" and see if anything has a hal-lock on your drive
[19:53] <maynards-girl> thank you. i will try one of those
[19:53] <akopacsi> anybody wanna chat in private about migration from windows to ubuntu?
[19:53] <sebsebseb> akopacsi: yep
[19:53] <ab8cl> when Update Manager listed that 9.04 was available I upgraded thinking that it would stay with the 64 bit OS since I was running 8.10 64 bit version.  I'm not sure if it did so how can I tell if I am running 9.04 64 bit version?
[19:54] <Etanol> aaaargh
[19:54] <Etanol> how can it be so hard for a program to just change the mbr
[19:54] <Slart> ab8cl: it did.. you can't upgrade from 64bit to 32bit.. or the other way around
[19:54] <Etanol> do I need to chmod my /boot/
[19:54] <Etanol> ?
[19:54] <shiznebit> hey guys i need some assistance in setting up PPTP
[19:54] <Slart> ab8cl: but you can run "uname -a" to see what kernel you're using
[19:54] <tones> Etanol: i doubt it.
[19:54] <Dante123> jrib do you have to run the sudo dontzap --disable just once or how do you make the changes permanent?
[19:55] <mach> pls do you know how to enable (install) graphics splash screen in  boot process?
[19:55] <jrib> Dante123: no idea
[19:55] <Slart> ab8cl: if it says x86_64 at the end it's a 64bit kernel
[19:55] <adamsad1> i'm trying to back my data up to an external drive. i formatted half the drive in ntfs for backing up windows, and half in ext3 for ubuntu. i can mount the ext3 partition, but i can't write to it. what do i need to do?
[19:55] <efjc> shiznebit: client or server?
[19:55] <Capoeira> join #canaima
[19:55] <ab8cl> it doesn't
[19:55] <mzz> adamsad1: fails how?
[19:55] <Flannel> Etanol: your MBR isn't in /boot/ its on your drive
[19:55] <Slart> abchirk: what does it say then?
[19:55] <Aceback> 'ey there
[19:55] <shiznebit> efjc: client
[19:55] <tones> Flannel: he/she knows that
[19:55] <Etanol> Flannel: yea, but grub is having problem reading /boot/grub/stage1
[19:55] <abchirk> I donÄt know
[19:56] <Slart> ab8cl: : what does it say then?
[19:56] <shiznebit> basically i got it working but im having major problems. Like the speed is half of what it is supposed to be
[19:56] <Slart> abchirk: sorry.. wrong nick
[19:56] <adamsad1> mzz: it just won't let me create folders or copy files or anything--it acts like it's read-only
[19:56] <Aceback> :(
[19:56] <abchirk> hehe yeah.. whats your problem? Slart
[19:56] <mzz> adamsad1: are you doing this as you or as root?
[19:56] <fuad> Hi all, i am looking for references and documentations of kernel development functions like kmap, create_proc_entry etc. Is there any ? also documentations on definitions like S_IRUGO, S_IFREG. also i have downloaded manpages from kernel.org in tar.gz format. Afetr make install also no manual entry for kmap
[19:57] <adamsad1> mzz: nevermind... i just answered my own question... i need to be root... duh
[19:57] <Aceback> I've internet problems.... :P
[19:57] <Etanol> goddamnit!!
[19:57] <mzz> adamsad1: either that or you need to chmod/chown the root of the partition once as root
[19:57] <Slart> abchirk: being devilishly handsome, way more clever than you all, smelling good.... oh.. and I have a tendency to make things up as I go ;)
[19:57] <fuad> i am looking for references and documentations of kernel development functions like kmap, create_proc_entry etc. Is there any ? also documentations on definitions like S_IRUGO, S_IFREG. also i have downloaded manpages from kernel.org in tar.gz format. Afetr make install also no manual entry for kmap
[19:58] <mzz> adamsad1: that is: mount the partition, then run chmod/chown on the mountpoint
[19:58] <abchirk> lol, kj
[19:58] <tones> Etanol: sorry to say it, youre screwed.
[19:58] <ab8cl> never mind it is ok, I looked at System Monitor>System tab it doesn't show the x86 64  like uname -a  thanks ----
[19:58] <adamsad1> mzz: okay--thanks
[19:58] <dsabecky> fuad: Go to #ubuntu-offtopic. They get into more complex things there.
[19:58] <Aceback> hey I got a question
[19:58] <Aceback> :/
[19:58] <Pici> dsabecky: -offtopic is not a support channel.
[19:58] <tones> Etanol: i remember reading somewhere that there is a way of chainloading in windows..
[19:59] <Pici> fuad: #ubuntu-kernel would be better suited for your question.
[19:59] <Aceback> Pici
[19:59] <Pici> Aceback: ?
[19:59] <Aceback> I got a problem
[19:59] <dsabecky> Pici: Seeing as it's offtopic. Saying it's anything would be false as it can't be on topic. :P
[19:59] <Aceback> with my connection :(
[19:59] <nperry> !ask > Aceback
[19:59] <deany> I thought the ext4 lockup upon deleting large files bug was supposed to be fixed, however my friend is still experiencing it. im having to redo his home to ext3.
[19:59] <Etanol> how can it even bug?
[20:00] <tones> Etanol: im sorry?
[20:00] <Aceback> oh k
[20:00] <c0ntract0r> is amarok a little finicky?  I scan a (huge) music folder, and it shows a whole list of artists, and then when  i double click on an artist it doesnt branch down to songs, should it do that? or am i just not doing it correctly?
[20:00] <nperry> Whats up Aceback :)
[20:00] <mzz> deany: why do you expect redoing it as ext3 to help?
[20:00] <ab8cl> now if I could only get the Volume louder and the Video to play right....
[20:00] <deany> because its a bug in ext4 ?
[20:00] <Aceback> My prob is this:
[20:00] <Aceback> when I installed ubuntu 8.10
[20:01] <Aceback> eth0 wasnt detected, couldnt get it to detection
[20:01] <Aceback> now that I got 9.04
[20:01] <billybigrigger_> deany::: im doing a raid setup right now and was thinking about doing it in ext4, but i have been convinced by others to stick with ext3, ext4 is still very young
[20:01] <Aceback> I actually get connected and stuff... but some sites wont load
[20:01] <Etanol> It shouldn't give me an error
[20:01] <Etanol> this is bs
[20:01] <Aceback> and I cant update anything
[20:01] <mzz> deany: it is? iiuc ext4 should be able to do this faster, not slower
[20:01] <Slart> Aceback: please.. let the poor enter key rest a while.. type it all on one line.. perhaps use the . once in a while
[20:01] <Aceback> oh k
[20:02] <tones> Etanol: there are such things as vowels you know ;)
[20:02] <efjc> shiznebit: sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp
[20:02] <deany> mzz, it does it faster.. it does it badly as its a bug and locks up the pc.
[20:02] <Aceback> I tried everything but it still won't load those sites, I even changed the interfaces file
[20:02] <Etanol> tones: hm?
[20:03] <sacarlson> Etanol: ready to take a full look yet?  this script will diplay all the data we need to see.  http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=250055
[20:03] <tones> Etanol: never mind
[20:03] <paul68> I have a usb external drive connected to my server however it somehow doesn't show when I enter df -h how do I solve this?
[20:03] <deany> the bug is "in progress" and set to an importance level of "medium".  its the filesystem, thought it deserves a higher priority
[20:04] <eleite> i'm trying to mount my flashdrive but i don't know what device it is. it doesnt seem to appear when i type "mount" command. how can i find the device name?
[20:04] <mzz> paul68: is it mounted?
[20:04] <nmvictor> Aceback:concerned about ypur problem.what is it?
[20:04] <paul68> mzz: I set it up so it should be mounted but I can't even detect it
[20:04] <shiznebit> efjc: i have pptp  for linux installed
[20:05] <Etanol> em
[20:05] <Slart> eleite: one way is to run this in a terminal "sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog" then remove the flash drive, wait a while.. then reinsert it
[20:05] <Etanol> this is strange
[20:05] <nmvictor> eleite:doesnt it show on nutilus sidepane?
[20:05] <Etanol>  => Grub0.97 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive in partition #256 for /boot/grub/stage2.
[20:05] <Etanol>  => No boot loader is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb
[20:05] <Aceback> nmvictor: eth0 works fine and stuff.. but the internet connection doesnt work properly. most sites wont load cept for google and I cant update anything
[20:05] <Etanol> aha nvm
[20:05] <Slart> eleite: the text in the terminal should tell you where it's mounted.. if there was an error etc
[20:05] <eleite> slart: ill try that now
[20:05] <mzz> paul68: does it show up in dmesg and /dev/ ?
[20:05] <tones> Etanol: that doesnt sound right...
[20:05] <mzz> paul68: or in lsusb?
[20:05] <Etanol> it says it works
[20:06] <Etanol> maybe I should restart and check if it works
[20:06] <paul68> it shows in lsusb
[20:06] <mwa1> folks, my laptop just hangs once i open any video file. What could be the reason
[20:06] <paul68> mzz: it shows in lsusb
[20:06] <Capoeira> I need hepl, i have 3 PC
[20:06] <mwa1> folks, my laptop just hangs once i open any video file. What could be the reason
[20:06] <h00k__> So, I've been running a task for the past week to recover my data from an external drive.  I decided to play Americas Army and my system appears frozen.  Is there a kernel shortcut to kill the current running task (alt+f4 isn't responsive)?  I'd like to avoid rebooting if I can.
[20:06] <mzz> paul68: how are you trying to mount it?
[20:06] <tones> Etanol: go ahead
[20:06] <Capoeira> 2 PC - Ubuntu / Windows
[20:06] <mwa1> folks, my laptop just hangs once i open any video file. What could be the rea
[20:06] <Capoeira> 1 PC - Only Linux
[20:06] <tones> Etanol: ill wait for you :)
[20:06] <eleite> Slart: last few lines mention [sdd]. could that be it?
[20:06] <mwa1> folks, my laptop just hangs once i open any video file. What could be the reason
[20:07] <mzz> h00k__: don't press this yet, but if nobody has a better idea try alt+sysrq+k (which should kill your entire X session)
[20:07] <Capoeira> I have router Cnet CNIG-914 and only conect internet PC with Windows
[20:07] <mwa1> my box hangs once i open any video file. What could be the reason
[20:07] <samba_> hi, how to set volume in terminal for pulseaudio device , amixer don't works?
[20:07] <Slart> eleite: that sounds reasonable.. usually it's something like sdd1 but you can make a file system on a single drive if you really want to
[20:07] <efjc> shiznebit: can the network manager sugest pptp as an option when you try to add a vpn
[20:07] <tones> just out of interest, is anyone else here 12 or under?
[20:07] <Capoeira> when i reboot two pc with Linux y dont have conection with Internet
[20:07] <paul68> If I remember correctly I mount it with fstab I thought even when It goes in standby it will get the drives name back when I ask data from that drive
[20:07] <Slart> eleite: sdd is the whole drive, sdd1 would be the first partition on the sdd drive
[20:07] <h00k__> mzz: alright, I'm hoping it doesn't go to that because the recovery software is running in my session
[20:07] <eleite> slart: well all i need to do is paste a log file into the flashdrive so i can show it to someone online via pastebin
[20:08] <shiznebit> efjc: too be frank, i have my PPTP
[20:08] <Aceback> I have teh same problem capoeira does, cept that my connection doesnt work well
[20:08] <Slart> tones: mentally? or..
[20:08] <Aceback> *has
[20:08] <mzz> paul68: I have no experience with usb devices going "in standby" if that means more than just spinning down. Tried remounting the device?
[20:08] <Slart> eleite: it doesn't show up in nautilus?
[20:08] <nmvictor> Aceback:try updating through the terminal.For the sites,maybe the connection isnt so good.You know how small google.com page is and their cache-technology.maybe your ISP might explain further.how long has this been?
[20:08] <tones> Slart: works for me :)
[20:08] <rumpel2> spinning down flashdrive? :)
[20:08] <tones> Slart: just wondering if im too smart for my age...
[20:08] <mzz> h00k__: don't hit this yet either, but sometimes ctrl+alt+f1 still works too. And if you have a second system and sshd running you can ssh in
[20:09] <Slart> tones: yes, definately.. way to smart
[20:09] <eleite> slart: what's nautilus? heh.
[20:09] <Slart> see.. I can't even spell correctly..
[20:09] <tones> Slart: good to know :D
[20:09] <h00k__> mzz: I don't have sshd running, i thought about that, too, I also can't get to any other TTY'sm
[20:09] <h00k__> ,
[20:09] <Aceback> nmvictor: happens always, I've tried to update via terminal yet nothing happened. It attempted to reconnect many times as every attempt ended in a failure
[20:09] <Slart> eleite: nautilus is the file browser thingy in gnome..
[20:09] <lakotajames> Alright, th0r, I reset to factory defaults, forgot the username, and had to call the ISP.  can you get to it now?
[20:09] <Slart> eleite: the program you use to see the files on your hard drives
[20:09] <evantandersen> i'm having a problem with a kernel module. if i just insmod it first, i get this error: "insmod: error inserting 'it87.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module"    When i go to modprobe it i get this: " FATAL: Error inserting it87 (/lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon/it87.ko): No such device" however if i then insmod it again, everything works. Whats going on?
[20:09] <BrightEyes`> which is the lightest distro based on ubuntu?
[20:10] <h00k__> mzz: I think I might be screwed.
[20:10] <eleite> slart: ah, well i'm doing all this because my X isn't starting up. im getting "no devices found".
[20:10] <evantandersen> BrightEyes` xubuntu?
[20:10] <Slart> BrightEyes`: xubuntu is pretty light.. not sure if it's the lightest
[20:10] <eleite> slart: it happened after i used the update manager to install the latest vesa drivers, now i cant get into x
[20:10] <paul68> mzz: tried that but drive can't be found
[20:10] <Slart> eleite: oohh.. I see.. then you won't be able to run nautilus.. sorry
[20:10] <evantandersen> eleite:  have you tried using xfix?
[20:10] <mzz> paul68: its name might have changed. Check dmesg.
[20:11] <paul68> mzz: trying to find what the name of the drive linux gave to this drive now
[20:11] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> http://www.neobux.com/?rh=68656E726971756539303030
[20:11] <yunle96> try init 1
[20:11] <BrightEyes`> evantandersen: im running xubuntu now but i want something lighter
[20:11] <chadi> how can I edit the compiz configurtation file manually? where is it located?
[20:11] <yunle96> fix zhe xwindow
[20:11] <h00k__> So, I've been running a task for the past week to recover my data from an external drive.  I decided to play Americas Army and my system appears frozen.  Is there a kernel shortcut to kill the current running task (alt+f4 isn't responsive)?  I'd like to avoid rebooting if I can.
[20:11] <eleite> evantandersen: yea i tried it when running in recover mode, didn't seem to fix it
[20:11] <walrus_> Hey anyone using the CPU frequency gnome applets? For some reason the 'ondemand' setting doesn't work... even if i run cpu eating programs they stay at 50% frequency :(
[20:11] <eleite> evantandersen: is there another way to run xfix?
[20:11] <evantandersen> BrightEyes` well, there is puppy dog linux, but it's not based off ubuntu.
[20:11] <Etanol> works
[20:11] <Etanol> -_-
[20:11] <tones> Etanol: worked?
[20:12] <evantandersen> eleite yes but same result would occur, so no point
[20:12] <Slart> h00k__: not sure what you can do with the REISUB thingy.. google for REISUB for more info
[20:12] <tones> Etanol: cool
[20:12] <Etanol> I inserted the grub cd again
[20:12] <Etanol> and it fixed the mbr
[20:12] <BrightEyes`> evantandersen: well puppy is for too old pcs
[20:12] <tones> Etanol: oh ok
[20:12] <Etanol> hax
[20:12] <Slart> BrightEyes`: why not try the server version and add something like ... fluxbox
[20:12] <tones> Etanol: forgot about that :D
[20:12] <h00k__> Slart: yeah, would probably work but I'd like to avoid rebooting
[20:12] <Matr|x> i tryed to install Compiz-Fusion but its not working with me
[20:12] <BrightEyes`> Slart: well i dont know
[20:12] <sheldon> Anyone have any experience with Cedega?
[20:12] <evantandersen> BrightEyes`:  maybe you could install xubuntu, remove xfce and install flubox or similar. Xfce is really that lightweight of a Window Manager
[20:12] <Etanol> tones: if I change the grub config, will the changes reflect the next time I boot?
[20:12] <jdu> kOOk__ wait it out?
[20:13] <Slart> h00k__: yes.. I was more thinking about there possibly being other letters to press for killing processes
[20:13] <shadow98> is there anyway to save a file if im not root...i have made changes to this file that i don't want to loose....
[20:13] <shiznebit> efjc: thanks for your help, i think i have sorted it out :)
[20:13] <tones> if you change /boot/grub/menu.lst, yes
[20:13] <BrightEyes`> any other distros that have apt installed?
[20:13] <tones> Etanol: if you change /boot/grub/menu.lst, yes
[20:13] <Slart> shadow98: save it in your home folder
[20:13] <nmvictor> hook__:kill O will kill everything except shell,but i dont know if its a safe command,here what others have to say about it first
[20:13] <Slart> shadow98: then move it as root to the right place
[20:13] <carpii> well, debian has apt obviously
[20:13] <shadow98> Slart, how do you tell it where to save it...im used to just doing :x!
[20:13] <sacarlson> tones: so what fixed a secound boot of supergrub disk?
[20:13] <jdu> shadow98, save it some where else then copy it as root
[20:13] <lakotajames> how do I set up the ctrl-alt-backspace shortcut again, and why was it removed in the first place?
[20:14] <Slart> shadow98: oh.. in vim.. isn't there a built-in help function? vim always scared me.. never quite got the hang of it
[20:14] <mwa1> my box hangs once i open any video file. What could be the reason
[20:14] <shadow98> so do you just go :x!/home/username/
[20:14] <tones> sacarlson: Etanol just used the grub cd prompt to install grub agin instead.
[20:14] <Slart> !dontzap
[20:14] <evantandersen> shadow98: write in the name when you press Control - x, don't just immeadiy press enter, change the path first
[20:14] <Noah0504> lakotajames: So, people didn't accidentally use it.
[20:14] <maco> lakotajames: upstream thinks its easy to hit by accident
[20:14] <eleite> now i've copied my log file to where i mounted the device "/mnt". it's not letting me umount it. says device is busy?
[20:14] <Etanol> thanks for the help guys
[20:15] <mzz> eleite: cd out of that directory (that's often it)
[20:15] <Etanol> really appreciate it :)
[20:15] <lakotajames> maco: how the hell do you hit that accidently?
[20:15] <jdu> eleite, man lsof
[20:15] <mzz> lakotajames: I've managed it!
[20:15] <eleite> mzz: that worked thanks
[20:15] <lakotajames> mzz:what were you trying to hit at the time?
[20:15] <Ljorring> I have a sound issue in Ubuntu 8.04. I can play an mp3 file in an audio player, and it looks like it's playing, but I hear no sound. Can someone please help me?
[20:15] <gsteinert> hey, im having trouble with my ethernet connection on my netbook
[20:15] <Aceback> got connectivity problem with 9.04 :(
[20:15] <mzz> lakotajames: got my brain/fingers crossed when hitting alt+backspace (kill word before cursor) and some other command involving ctrl
[20:15] <Slart> Ljorring: are you using pulseaudio?
[20:16] <jdu> eleite, you could do something like    lsof | grep /mnt
[20:16] <Ljorring> Slart: no, I have tried installing it without any luck
[20:16] <jdu> eleite, it will tell you what is making the device be busy
[20:16] <lakotajames> mzz: I guess that makes sense.  so how do I get it back?
[20:16] <shadow98> i can't i still can't figure out how in vi to save to different location..
[20:16] <Slart> Ljorring: installing it? it's installed by default
[20:16] <jdu> shadow98,   :s /home/<user>/filename
[20:16] <mzz> lakotajames: use the dontzap utility (and probably log out and back in) as mentioned above
[20:16] <WhiteHat> hellp
[20:16] <gsteinert> i had the device in ifconfig, but took it down because it was interfering with my wireless connection
[20:16] <Slart> shadow98: can't you press :? to get help?
[20:17] <gsteinert> now it wont show in ifconfig or lshw
[20:17] <eleite> jdu: thanks judo. it worked out. now ive gotta do it all over again because w/e filesystem it's formatted to, my mac cant read
[20:17] <jdu> shadow98, sorry :w ...
[20:17] <WhiteHat> uhm hello
[20:17] <Ljorring> Slart: I have upgraded to 8.04 from 7. I think I have it removed atm using ALSA instead
[20:17] <shadow98> i tried :help didn't say
[20:17] <ignacio> hi
[20:17] <tones> shadow98:
[20:17] <LordQuackstar> is their anyway to mount something specifying only sectors? I accedentially reformatted my external HD with the format button in the usb-creator program, but my drive shows up as unformatted. I have a ~140GB encrypted partion squezzed bewteen 2 normal partions, and i need to get that encrypted partion back.
[20:17] <Slart> Ljorring: well.. then I don't know what to do.. alsa and I were never on friendly terms
[20:17] <shadow98> still keeps telling me it cannot open file for writing..
[20:17] <tones> shadearg: just use :w *path*
[20:17] <shadow98> tones: yes
[20:17] <WhiteHat> I am trying to seed a torrent i downloaded but the program I use is not uploading at all do you think there might be a problem with my ip tables?
[20:18] <tones> shadow98: just use :w *path*
[20:18] <Ljorring> Slart: okay.. can you help me installing pulseaudio?
[20:18] <muse> "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. Invalid parameter." I get this error when I try share a folder using the right-click menu item "Sharing Options" Any ideas for fixing it?
[20:18] <ikonia> WhiteHat: what is the application you are using ?
[20:18] <shadow98> i did :w /home/myuser/filename.txt
[20:18] <tones> shadow98: or just use :write *path*
[20:18] <nmvictor> 2
[20:18] <tones> shadow98: did it  work?
[20:18] <Slart> Ljorring: nope.. wouldn't know where to start.. since it's always installed by default I've never had to do it manually
[20:18] <WhiteHat> I use qBitorrent
[20:18] <shadow98> /home/bthompson/test.txt" E212: Can't open file for writing
[20:18] <mzz> WhiteHat: either that or you're behind a router
[20:18] <Aceback> got connectivity problem with 9.04 :(
[20:18] <ikonia> !info qBitorrent
[20:19] <mzz> WhiteHat: err, scratch that
[20:19] <Ljorring> Slart: okay :( thanks anyway, mate
[20:19] <jdu> shadow98, what user are running as?
[20:19] <Slart> Ljorring: hope you find someone that can help you
[20:19] <tones> shadow98: needs more priveleges?
[20:19] <ikonia> WhiteHat: that isn't a package provided by ubuntu, where did you get it ?
[20:19] <jdu> shadow98, you need to be bthompson in that case
[20:19] <shadow98> sorry that users doesn't exist on this box...i was thinking i was on my machine..
[20:19] <shadow98> i got it..
[20:19] <ignacio> what's the best way to shrink my root partition and enlarge my home partition?
[20:19] <Ljorring> Slart: thanks, I will try
[20:19] <tones> shadow98: ok
[20:19] <shadow98> thanks for the help
[20:19] <tones> ignacio: gparted
[20:19] <tones> shadow98: no prob :0
[20:19] <tones> :)
[20:20] <jdu> ignacio, prabably with gparted.  Backup first
[20:20] <sacarlson> LordQuackstar:  maybe mount raw image http://www.learnlinux.co.cc/mounting-a-raw-image-as-partition/
[20:20] <Aceback> got connectivity problem with 9.04 :(
[20:20] <jdu> ignacio, you can download the gparted livecd and use it.
[20:20] <sheldon> does anyone know that this means...   0012:err:x11drv:X11DRV_GLX_MakeCurrent direct context copies rejected by OpenGL implementation, switching to signals
[20:20] <tones> ignacio: sorry, jdu is right, use the gparted livecd
[20:21] <LordQuackstar> sacarlson: but won't that mount the whole hard drive instead of a partion?
[20:21] <sheldon> this is a message I get in the log file for Cedega when I try to run Unreal Tournament III
[20:21] <ignacio> ubuntu live cds have gparted, right?
[20:21] <sacarlson> LordQuackstar:  That's the only way I know
[20:22] <jdu> ignacio, yes, the newer ones.
[20:22] <ignacio> the thing is, my root partition is before the home partition
[20:22] <tones> ignacio: yes
[20:22] <ignacio> so I'd have to move it and resize it
[20:22] <ubuntu> Hello
[20:22] <ubuntu> Does default installed Ubuntu have compiz?
[20:22] <tones> ignacio: as long as you have space you can even copy with gparted
[20:22] <ikonia> ubuntu: yes
[20:22] <ikonia> ubuntu: 7.10 and later, has compiz-fusion installed by default
[20:22] <kora-chan> heya i'm using ubuntu jaunty since a few days and wanted to reactivate my old screenlets. when i try to load a screenlet it doesnt show up and the following python errors are shown on the console http://paste.ubuntu.com/169020/. any1 got an idea?
[20:22] <jdu> ignacio, I have found though that the ubuntu livecd can use too much resources to be useful for things like gparted on some computers.
[20:22] <ubuntu> ikonia: thank You
[20:22] <nmvictor> ubuntu:hello,im running something that shares your Nick
[20:23] <cou> I'm searching for a tool that replaces textshorts (like typing pls [TAB] and it replaces it with please)
[20:23] <Pupeno> Hello.
[20:23] <giacomo_> !list
[20:23] <ignacio> I could make less of a mess and just make a new partition for large files
[20:24] <lzantal> what do you use for mysql management beside phpmyadmin
[20:24] <muse> "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. Invalid parameter." ... I get this error when I try share a folder using the right-click menu item "Sharing Options." Any ideas for fixing it?
[20:24] <Pupeno> I have a 230GB disk with 175GB for Windows. The rest I'm installing Ubuntu 9.04. Which option should I choose on "Prepare disk space".
[20:24] <ikonia> lzantal: the mysql command shell is fine, but there is also mysql-admin
[20:24] <QueenInfamous> guys
[20:24] <ikonia> Pupeno: custom/manual
[20:24] <QueenInfamous> How can I restore my resolution?
[20:24] <daworm84> does anyone know kaffeine? I try to start to use DVB television but there are no options to use dvbt. Is sudo apt-get install kaffeine not enough?
[20:24] <sebsebseb> !resolution |  QueenInfamous
[20:25] <lzantal> ikonia: is mysql-admin a gui tool? I will check it in the repos
[20:25] <ubuntu> ikonia: Ubuntus liveCD doesnt offers compiz, after the install it will be installed autimaticly, right?
[20:25] <ikonia> lzantal: it is
[20:25] <ikonia> ubuntu: correct
[20:25] <Pupeno> ikonia: I was expecting Ubuntu to decide on how much virtual ram and all that with something like "use thelargest continuous free space".
[20:25] <ubuntu> :)
[20:25] <Pupeno> So, how much virtual ram should I put?
[20:25] <shadow98> anybody know how to show line numbers in vi
[20:25] <ikonia> Pupeno: you can do that if you want to use the auto setup
[20:25] <ikonia> Pupeno: by virtual ram, do you mean swap space ?
[20:25] <greagasef> how do I open password-protected rar archives with Ark?
[20:26] <sebsebseb> Pupeno: it does the swap space for you if you use  guided install
[20:26] <ikonia> greagasef: it should prompt you for a password when you open it
[20:26] <Pupeno> ikanobori: I want to do that, but it doesn't seem to wokr.
[20:26] <daworm84> does anyone know another good tool for use DVB Television?
[20:26] <nmvictor> I try loading phpmyadmin on my browser and my browser opens a download file dialogue box,asking what i should do to the PHTML file.what could the problem be?
[20:26] <greagasef> ikonia: it doesn't, it simply throws an error...
[20:26] <ikonia> nmvictor: sounds like your webserver is not running php properly
[20:26] <ikonia> greagasef: what error
[20:26] <ikanobori> hi
[20:26] <ubuntu> greagasef: rar/unrar will do it in konsole
[20:26] <ikanobori> someone highlighted me?
[20:27] <ikonia> ikanobori: someone was talking to me and made a typo
[20:27] <ikanobori> :(
[20:27] <lzantal> nmvictor: I got the same problem. I tryed everything google came up with.
[20:27] <greagasef> ikonia: "an error occurred while trying to open the archive"
[20:27] <ikonia> greagasef: sounds like it thinks the archive is corrupted
[20:27] <greagasef> ubuntu: I know, no problem, but I'd like a GUI for that
[20:27] <nmvictor> ikonia:so whats the fix,ive thought of that too,as posibilty
[20:27] <greagasef> ikonia: It's not. unrar form the console works perfectly.
[20:28] <ikonia> greagasef: sounds like it thinks it is, log a bug on launchpad for it
[20:29] <QueenInfamous> whoever told me about the resolution thingy
[20:29] <QueenInfamous> it didn't work
[20:29] <QueenInfamous> my pc just kinda restarted
[20:30] <spikes> anyone want to help out a poor noob with some mic problems?
[20:30] <tones> spikes: im up for it :)
[20:30] <meoblast> i need some help
[20:30] <meoblast> i have a hitachi DVD GD-8000 and it own't play a DVD nor ejject it
[20:30] <h00k> Does anyone know of some FOSS recovery software that will work on ext2? Its a 500gb external and I don't have 500gb to image it.
[20:30] <nmvictor> lzantal:do you have apache2-mpm-prefork or worker installed?coz in my case,apt-get force me into removing them to restore some broken dependencies.Apache still rns smoothly though,coz i have libapache-mod-php5 and other php5 packages,though i still believe somethins missing
[20:31] <blastur1> since upgrading to jackalope, when i start apps like VLC and movie player, they all launch on my primary screen, when I start the "menu item" from my secondary screen (LCD TV) .. and then I cant move them to my LCD!
[20:31] <blastur1> anyone know how to open a program on a specific screen?
[20:31] <mneptok> h00k: fsck.ext2
[20:31] <hassan_> how can i active root plz
[20:31] <spikes> first i need to remember how to send tells
[20:31] <mneptok> hassan_: you don;t in Ubuntu. use sudo
[20:31] <Slart> !root | hassan_
[20:31] <tones> blastur1: jaunty is still beta.. quite unstable
[20:31] <Slart> !sudo | hassan_
[20:31] <chaorain> I just installed mythbuntu onto ubuntu 9.04 and I still have the task bars and I don't have the "cancel", "next", "previous" buttons in set up. Help?
[20:31] <DrHalan> does anyone know how to play windows media 9 files on ubuntu?
[20:31] <deany> anyone good on rsync?  why does it go through each file like its either checking or copying it even tho nothing has changed?  it took an hour to copy 12gig of music to my usb stick (its slow) and its gonna take the same time just to do nothing..
[20:31] <meoblast> i have a hitachi DVD GD-8000 and it own't play a DVD nor ejject it
[20:32] <blastur1> tones: really? the upgrade manager thingie advised me to upgrade
[20:32] <sebsebseb> DrHalan: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras should take care of that
[20:32] <Khelben> !gksu
[20:32] <lzantal> nmvictor: I am checking it right now. Thank you. Did you get it fixed?
[20:32] <mneptok> deany: rsync does not have such issues when dealing with real filesystems. FAT32 is not a real filesystem.
[20:32] <tones> blastur1: same for me. now i cant print anything :(
[20:32] <Slart> tones, blastur1: Jaunty is not in beta any more
[20:32] <mzz> deany: it will check, but it shouldn't copy if the timestamps match
[20:32] <deany> its ext2
[20:32] <tones> Slart: is it not? my bad
[20:32] <deany> mzz, its checking is takin as long as copying.
[20:32] <Andy1> Hi there.  I've got an apt-get question.
[20:32] <Slart> !jaunty | tones
[20:32] <mzz> deany: are you sure it's actually copying, not just comparing timestamps?
[20:32] <ignacio> bil/leave
[20:32] <Slart> !ask | Andy1
[20:32] <mneptok> deany: what rsync options did you use?
[20:33] <deany> mzz, thats my issue, whatever its doin, its takin forever, again.
[20:33] <Andy1> Got it!
[20:33] <deany> -rtlDv
[20:33] <spikes> tones: well i had feed back from my mic to my speakers but nothing came out on Team Speak, Skype or anything else.
[20:33] <deany> ive tried -av too
[20:33] <blastur1> ah.. that sucks tones :( i wish i knew how to move an app to my 2nd screen .. cause otherwise i cant view anything on my LCD :(
[20:33] <lzantal> nmvictor: I do have that package but Synaptic shows libapache2-mod-php5filter not installed.
[20:33] <nmvictor> Slart:I got root pasword perfectly in my ubuntu,except ubottu wont hear of it.but if you wanna dare,just let me know
[20:33] <mzz> deany: roughly how many files are we talking about and how slow are both the source and dest filesystem?
[20:33] <deany> i might as well just manually copy the folders/files myself.. its quicker
[20:33] <meoblast> i have a hitachi DVD GD-8000 and it own't play a DVD nor ejject it... can anyone help? my dad's pretty ticked at me because i put Ubuntu on this machine and i can't get it all working
[20:33] <Slart> !supportroot | nmvictor
[20:34] <h00k> mneptok: yeah, I've tried that, it has bad blocks apparently, that freezes up
[20:34] <Andy1> I installed a program, gizmod, using apt-get install gizmod, then deleted the files from the filesystem.  Now when I do an apt-get install gizmod it only creates the driectories and there are no files in them.  I've tried apt-get remove gizmod, apt-get clean, stuff like that
[20:34] <deany> 1300 files.. 12gig
[20:34] <tones> blastur1: never used two screens so cant help
[20:34] <mneptok> deany: just use -avh
[20:34] <chaorain> I just installed mythbuntu onto ubuntu 9.04 and and when I load MythTV I still have the task bars and I don't have the "cancel", "next", "previous" buttons in set up. Help?
[20:34] <Slart> nmvictor: it's not hard to enable it.. but it's just not supported nor recommended
[20:34] <tones> spikes: that means the mike is working. try adding a mike boost, maybe its just silent
[20:34] <mzz> deany: 1300 files shouldn't take that long, unless either the source or dest filesystem has some problem causing the timestamp comparisons to fail. If you let it run a second time how many bytes does it actually transfer (there should at least be a summary at the end, depending on switches also updates as it runs)?
[20:34] <tsrk> Hey guys and gals, I'm having a problem that makes me feel really stupid, and I'm probably just missing something. I have a Lenovo S10 Netbook, and when I plug it into a monitor, the monitor shows the same resolution as the netbook screen (which is not very high). How can I make the monitor show full resolution?
[20:35] <deany> mneptok, how would enabling human readable output help
[20:35] <QueenInfamous> I use xChat,how can I make it so that I can see the people who are in the channel?
[20:35] <deany> my destination is slow... i know that, i expect to copy them initially slowly.. I dont however expect it to copy nothing at all in the same time
[20:35] <mneptok> deany: how does it hurt?
[20:35] <DrHalan> sebsebseb: i already have that? maybe its because i run 64bit? other restricted things work
[20:35] <deany> they are on my main drive.. ext4 formatted
[20:35] <mzz> deany: see --modify-window in the rsync manual
[20:36] <guntbert> QueenInfamous: <ctrl>f7
[20:36] <deany> mneptok, it doesnt solve my problem,
[20:36] <Slart> tsrk: I'm not sure if you can run the screens cloned at different resolutions.. try to set the external monitor as the "primary" monitor.. it will mess up the display on the laptop but I'm guessing it's the external one that is important, no?
[20:36] <mzz> deany: that's *if* it's actually copying a second time.
[20:36] <sebsebseb> DrHalan: mplayer should be able to play it, and other players
[20:36] <nmvictor> Slart:i know,i just thought i ubottu talked of you geussing,so ifigured you needed a fix.anyway,its ok
[20:36] <h00k> Does anyone know of some FOSS recovery software that will work on ext2? Its a 500gb external and I don't have 500gb to image it, fsck freezes up when I try it, bad blocks.
[20:36] <mneptok> deany: rsync works perfectly for me. it does not for you. you asked for help. feel free to ignore it.
[20:36] <deany> its going though each file, like its checking it... i thought it`d be lightning fast copying 0 new files and 0 modified files
[20:36] <the1corrupted> Hello, all.  I'm having issues with PHP5 on my computer..  I have apache2 and mysql both installed and working.
[20:36] <lzantal> Thank you all. mysql-admin Looks really good
[20:36] <Slart> nmvictor: nah.. it was for someone who asked about it.. but thanks anyway
[20:36] <DrHalan> sebsebseb: it also tells me "cant find audio codec" but video works fine. Its hd...
[20:37] <Slart> h00k: tried photorec? or testdisk?
[20:37] <chaorain> Has any one had problems with ext4 stability?
[20:37] <w00tz> hi, i googled by dynex dx-busb wireless adapter card and i realize that it has terrible support by dynex on linux. i do know that it is a broadcom driver though, which was recently released here: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php . all the tutorials i am reading are referencing something called 'wl' and 'ssb' which don't mean anythign for me. i compiled the driver that broadcom has on their website, but, i'm not sure how
[20:37] <kora-chan> tsrk: youcould try setting the resolution manually with xrandr or you can look in the the menu of gnome for screenresollution to change them there. i guess for gnome to recognize the native resolution of your screen, the screen has already to be plugged in when x starts
[20:37] <Linuz2009> why my computer started to slow when I check for badblocks
[20:37] <deany> mzz, i dont know if its copying it all over again, even its its not, which it shouldnt be cuz nothing is new/changed, its goin though them all , slowly.
[20:37] <h00k> Slart: Yeah, they pull files with arbitrary names, I'd like to see if I can keep my directory structure
[20:37] <nathan_> i need some help... i have an imac g3 and i just recently installed ubuntu 8.04 on it. it booots up fine but when it starts to take me to the desktop the screen goes blank... some kind of display issue... now i dont know if any of u know but imacs use a different boot loader its called yaboot and i dont know how configure the display using yaboot so if someone could please help me.. that be awesome.
[20:37] <tsrk> Slart, actually, what would be best is to have them set up as side-by-side screens with different resolutions, because I'm going to be doing presentations with a projector, so I still need to be able to use the laptop screen. I got them set up as side-by-side, but the maximum resolution for the monitor was the same as the max resolution for the netbook.
[20:37] <Linuz2009> I've checked badblocks in the command line but it does nothing
[20:37] <mzz> deany: again, *check* if it is actually copying (if you're not familiar with what the output should look like the easiest way is to wait for the summary, or rerun it twice on a much smaller set of data so you can get at the summary faster)
[20:38] <Linuz2009> I check badblocks on dev/sda1
[20:38] <mzz> deany: I suspect the resolution of timestamps between the two filesystems is different and you need -
[20:38] <mzz> err
[20:38] <chaorain> Has any one had problems with ext4 stability?
[20:38] <Slart> tsrk: that's probably because it still thinks of the laptop screen as the primary screen.. if you put the external monitor as the primary screen you'll be limited by that resolution.. which might be more or less suitable for the laptop screen
[20:38] <mzz> deany: I suspect the resolution of timestamps between the two filesystems is different and you need --modify-window, but *check* if it's actually transferring everything again or if it's slow for some other reason
[20:38] <QueenInfamous> Why is every text at my irc the same colour and type?
[20:38] <QueenInfamous> it's kinda hard to see who is writting
[20:38] <QueenInfamous> :s
[20:39] <Slart> tsrk: I haven't actually played around with this a lot.. but I think that's the only way to have the same image on both screens
[20:39] <tsrk> Slart, that resolution wouldn't work for the laptop
[20:39] <tsrk> Slart, side-by-side is better though
[20:39] <Slart> tsrk: that might work with both screens using their own resolution
[20:39] <Ljorring> I have a sound issue with my Ubuntu 8.04 installation on a x61s laptop. I have tried installing/uninstalling pulseaudio a few times. My status now is, that I have lost track of what's actually installed of drivers and patches. Can someone help?
[20:40] <nathan_> i need some help... i have an imac g3 and i just recently installed ubuntu 8.04 on it. it booots up fine but when it starts to take me to the desktop the screen goes blank... some kind of display issue... now i dont know if any of u know but imacs use a different boot loader its called yaboot and i dont know how configure the display using yaboot so if someone could please help me.. that be awesome.
[20:40] <QueenInfamous> Why is every text at my irc the same colour and type? and how to edit it? :/
[20:40] <chaorain> !ext4
[20:40] <mzz> QueenInfamous: depends completely on the client
[20:40] <deany> it shouldnt copy again, they havent changed in the last 30 seconds..
[20:40] <nmvictor> QueenInfamous:You can change that,or find another client.Xchat is one in a million,though im not saying it sucks,i use it sometimes
[20:40] <Slart> QueenInfamous: because of the settings.. probably
[20:40] <QueenInfamous> well
[20:40] <lukavia> i have alsa problems in 9.04, dont update properly, help please
[20:40] <QueenInfamous> erm..
[20:40] <Slart> QueenInfamous: you really need to supply more details if you want any useful help.. for all we know you could be using a monchrome monitor..
[20:40] <Meskitela> hey people
[20:40] <tsrk> Slart, it still didn't show the full monitor resolution though
[20:41] <QueenInfamous> I see
[20:41] <Linuz2009> how can I check badblocks on the commandline
[20:41] <QueenInfamous> well people tell me ctrl+f7 but it's not workin
[20:41] <QueenInfamous> :/
[20:41] <w00tz> this is a dealbreaker for me, ugh, i might have to go out and purchase a new wireless adapter
[20:41] <deany> if i test this from folder to another folder on same internal drive, its lightning fast.
[20:41] <Slart> tsrk: not really sure how to fix that.. it works on my laptop but I haven't really done anythnig to it.. it just worked out of the box
[20:41] <guntbert> QueenInfamous: could it be you are running xchat-gnome?
[20:41] <deany> i know usb sticks are slow, but it shouldnt take as long as copying the whole folder to start with.
[20:41] <sacarlson> w00tz: what it didn't compile?
[20:42] <QueenInfamous> YEA
[20:42] <QueenInfamous> It's Xchat gnome!
[20:42] <tsrk> Slart, oh, maybe it's a problem with drivers then
[20:42] <Meskitela> need help
[20:42] <Slart> Meskitela: what is your problem?
[20:42] <deany> mzz, thanks dude, the modify window option=1 has done the trick......
[20:42] <QueenInfamous> gutbert ,what should I do? :/
[20:42] <guntbert> QueenInfamous: change to xchat!
[20:42] <spendel> Yuri20
[20:42] <QueenInfamous> alrighty
[20:43] <nathan_> i need some help... i have an imac g3 and i just recently installed ubuntu 8.04 on it. it booots up fine but when it starts to take me to the desktop the screen goes blank... some kind of display issue... now i dont know if any of u know but imacs use a different boot loader its called yaboot and i dont know how configure the display using yaboot so if someone could please help me.. that be awesome.

[20:47] <camilla> cdavis: yes, need to plug in a usb
[20:47] <bercik> ikonia: there is not such thing..
[20:48] <cdavis> camilla: Download virtualbox from their website. The OSE version available by default with Ubuntu doesn't support USB. The one you can download directly from Virtualbox does.

[20:53] <nathan_> hey does anyone know how i can force my cd burner to burn at 4x because everytime i set it to 4x it still ends up burning it at like 15x and it doesnt matter what program i use it keeps burning them to fast.
[20:53] <bercik> Slart: no, ikonia told me that it will be installed by default
[20:53] <Slart> bercik: I'm not sure if the settings manager is.. compiz is installed by default though
[20:53] <bercik> what package to download?
[20:54] <Slart> bercik: just try running "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" in a terminal
[20:54] <linduxed> i want to install awesome 3.2.2 on jaunty (repos have 2.x) and im looking at the following page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/awesome/+bug/253985
[20:54] <linduxed> I've tried doing the dget -u --build commands, but i get folders and tarballs, never packages
[20:55] <Slart> bercik: I think by default you can only chose between, no effects at all (ie compiz disabled), some effects or "enable everything, with extra fireworks.. and little frogs.. and lightning.. etc"
[20:55] <Slart> bercik: if you install the settings manager you can be a little more detailed about how you want it to work
[20:55] <spacy> hi

[20:56] <bercik> Slart: so how do i enable all the fireworks frogs and stuff? :)

[20:58] <Slart> bercik: in the settings manager you can enable some more stuff if you want it.. I really think it should be installed by default.. I don't really understand why it isn't

[21:05] <Ljorring> Flannel: I might be looking for something graphical
[21:05] <carpii> i had to do that for my monitor, even tho ubuntu claims it had detected it
[21:05] <Slart> loren: pulseaudio is like a mixer for alsa sound devices.. you can for example start playing sound using one soundcard (an mp3) and while it's playing you can switch it to another soundcard, perhaps connected to the stereo at your livingroom
[21:05] <JmZ> carpii no i didnt edit anything read what i said above
[21:05] <Ljorring> Flannel: I will look at it, thanks
[21:05] <wilhart> i need help installing ubuntustudio from usbstick can someone hel
[21:05] <Linuz2009> my computer kept freezing frequently and windows are turning gray.
[21:06] <JmZ> i installed the nvidia drivers and then did a "partial" (why partial) update and the kernel updated
[21:06] <JmZ> then all my graphics died
[21:06] <h00k> !enter | JmZ
[21:06] <Slart> loren: you also have separate volume controls for different applications.. ie firefox sound goes to headphones with a certain volume, vlc sound goes to speakers with another volume
[21:06] <loren> o-k I better leave the file alone thank you bye
[21:06] <JmZ> ok just try help me
[21:06] <hassan_> how can i stopted ubuntu ask password
[21:06] <Flannel> JmZ: When you install drivers that aren't in the repositories (like from the nvidia site), you will have to reinstall them every time you upgrade your kernel.
[21:06] <Gho> JmZ: When you ask one question over many many many lines, it gets broken up and hard to read as other text is interspersed throughout your question. That is why we ask you to put your complete question/problem on one line.
[21:06] <loren> I have vlc
[21:06] <Flannel> hassan_: Why do you want to?
[21:06] <carpii> we are, but dont get an attitude k
[21:06] <JmZ> yes i know flannel but i dont want them
[21:06] <JmZ> i want the original ubuntu nvidia ones i had
[21:07] <carpii> the hardware drivers manager usually lets you roll back to an earlier version
[21:07] <loren> I better just leave the file alone
[21:07] <loren> right?
[21:07] <JmZ> the hardware drivers shows nothing in it
[21:07] <user1> I've found that in Ubuntu 9.04 running Totem causes the following problem. Pressing volume keys on keyboard triggers the Growl notification but doesn't actually change the master volume. My only fix so far as to change all the file associations so that Totem never gets launched, But once it has been ran, I don't know how to reverse the change it causes.
[21:07] <JmZ> its blank
[21:07] <Flannel> JmZ: For the record (to give you an example of how you can ask better questions): You haven't said that yet.
[21:07] <Gho> JmZ: at the console, use dpkg-query -l | grep ii | grep nvidia to see which nvidia drivers you have installed, then use sudo apt-get remove <package> to remove then
[21:08] <bcurtiswx> hi all, how do I find out who the manufacturer of my DVD-rom is ?

[21:08] <operador_> olá pessoal
[21:08] <operador_> gostaria de uma ajuda ?
[21:08] <JmZ> Gho: i did that already and the only remaining things required hardware drivers to be removed too (dependencies)
[21:08] <th0r> bcurtiswx, hwinfo?
[21:08] <JmZ> now i reinstalled nvidia "new" driver and no luck still even after choosing it in the x conf
[21:08] <h00k> hassan_: make sure your caps-lock isn't on.  Also, note that the password doesn't actually show up for security reasons, just type it as you do to log in and press enter
[21:08] <sean2009> hi, this isn't an ubuntu question, but rather a KDE desktop one. -- How do i install programs i.e. the equivalent of add/remove in the gnome desktop.??
[21:09] <Flannel> JmZ: Your question should be something like this:  I installed the nvidia drivers from the nvidia website, and now I want to remove them and re install the ones from the repository.  I've tried X, Y, and Z, but it isn't working (or gives me these errors:).
[21:09] <c0ntract0r> Name of plugin for equalizer in amarok?

[21:11] <bcurtiswx> are there any specific drivers I need for my Optiarc DVD RW AD-7173A
[21:11] <Linuz2009> I need someone to help me if you're not too busy.

[21:11] <StevenTyler> Hi guys, I am upgrading Intrepid to Jaunty. Will my settings/installations/daemons be preserved? Or will they get overwritten?
[21:12] <hhp2k1> Hey everyone, quick question.  I'm trying to set up dual-monitor in Ubuntu 9.04 on an older PC; an Nvidia Geforce3 AGP graphics card on primary, and an 8MB ATI graphics card on PCI.  Can these two coexist in ubuntu and work together, or no?
[21:12] <Gho> StevenTyler: your settings should be preserved.
[21:12] <rumpel2> StevenTyler, usually no
[21:12] <StevenTyler> ok thanks
[21:12] <StevenTyler> what?
[21:12] <Flannel> StevenTyler: They will be preserved.  When the upgrade does its upgrade, it'll ask you if there are config file conflicts (and then ask what you want to do, edit, save backup, etc)
[21:12] <rumpel2> if you want secureity, make a backup (as always)
[21:12] <Flannel> StevenTyler: However, backingup /etc is never a bad thing.
[21:12] <Linuz2009> sudo badblocks /dev/sda1 doesn't work on my computer
[21:12] <Gho> StevenTyler: I'd back up just in case, but both of my upgrades worked just fine with no loss of settings/files.
[21:12] <user1> I've found that in Ubuntu 9.04 running Totem causes the following problem. Pressing volume keys on keyboard triggers the Growl notification but doesn't actually change the master volume. My only fix so far as to change all the file associations so that Totem never gets launched, But once it has been ran, I don't know how to reverse the change it causes. Has anyone else come across this problem?
[21:13] <Linuz2009> unable to check for badblocks
[21:13] <master> hi
[21:13] <Artelus> Hey
[21:13] <Artelus> how do I install Wine?
[21:13] <Artelus> Do i just type sudo apt-get install wine?
[21:13] <user1> Artelus: sudo apt-get install wine
[21:13] <Artelus> Is that outdated though?
[21:13] <SirErugor> Artelus, yes or use aptitude
[21:13] <Artelus> should I install it from their website?
[21:13] <sdcardgrub> my core duo 2 laptop does not support booting from an sd card. is there a way to configure grub to boot from the sd card like you do on an old laptop whose bios does not support booting from CD by configuring grub with a little help from smartbootmanager?
[21:13] <master> can i talk to any one
[21:13] <master> here
[21:13] <StevenTyler> yep, I am gonna backup just in case
[21:14] <user1> what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get?
[21:14] <e1luca> I don't need help, nore I have a solution. just whant to say this: Java on Ubuntu 64bit it's a joke. Same for ice plugin. Windows 98 was bugfree compare to this
[21:14] <Gho> !ask | master
[21:14] <bcurtiswx> anyone know why inserting any media into my Optiarc DVD RW AD-7173A causes ubuntu to freeze and force a reboot
[21:14] <Artelus> Should I use apt-get to install wine? or should I download it from winehq
[21:14] <Artelus> which would be better for me?
[21:14] <th0r> Artelus, use apt-get or synaptic
[21:14] <AustinS> MADE IT!  Gah people ask like linux is a breeze these days.  I will say it is 10000x better then before.
[21:14] <Soul_Shadow> need help with clearing my old sun-java6-jre package its broken.. I did update clean & nothing can remove it becasue of the error
[21:14] <Gho> Artelus: I'd advise installing using apt/synaptic/aptitude
[21:14] <h00k> Artelus: if you use apt-get, when a new version hits the repository it will be automatically updated.
[21:14] <user1> Artelus: apt-get/aptitude because it's better to use the repositories for your distro
[21:14] <Soul_Shadow> I cannot use synaptic becasue of teh error
[21:14] <SirErugor> Artelus, I would just use aptitude :)
[21:14] <master> i have pb with .mid extension
[21:14] <sdcardgrub> my core duo 2 laptop does not support booting from an sd card. is there a way to configure grub to boot from the sd card (perhaps with extra software) like you do on an old laptop whose bios does not support booting from CD by configuring grub with a little help from smartbootmanager?
[21:15] <user1> I'm guessing no one has come across my Totem issue?
[21:15] <AustinS> user1, what is your problem?
[21:15] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: first- what error?  secondly: apt-get --purge remove sun-java6-jre
[21:15] <master> my .mid files dont work
[21:15] <Soul_Shadow> thats the comand I forgot thx Gho
[21:15] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: cheers! :)
[21:16] <AustinS> user1, I was having a issue with it lastnight.  I can't get embedded wmp files (asx) to stream properly.  I tried mplayer and totem and neither would work.  Finally installed the mozilla-vlc package and that made it work, but vlc sucks because it doesnt have controls to fastforward and such.
[21:16] <master> can help me
[21:16] <AustinS> can you install Adobe Air using Apt-get or synaptic?  I can't find the package.  Am I missing a repository?
[21:16] <Gho> AustinS: really?  I FF/RW in VLC frquently
[21:16] <Soul_Shadow> Gho upon removal  Igot this error: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)  Now what?
[21:16] <guntbert> !enter | master
[21:16] <AustinS> Gho, How?  I want to drag a slider, not use ctrl+forward
[21:17] <bcurtiswx> what was gnome-volume-manager replaced by in Jaunty?
[21:17] <Linuz2009> Hi did anyone respond to my queston?
[21:17] <Gho> AustinS: fullscreen or windowed?
[21:17] <AustinS> either, doesn't show controls for me.
[21:17] <Soul_Shadow> its not installed in jaunty for volume manager
[21:17] <Linuz2009> hi did anyone noticed that i need a straight answer
[21:17] <hassan_> any one help me to remove my bassword
[21:18] <Linuz2009> hi but did I mention that I need some help
[21:18] <AustinS> gho, If I use hotkeys I found in VLC settings they work, but it seems terrible.  Am I missing a hotkey to bring up controls?
[21:18] <Soul_Shadow> does anyone know why when I apt-get-purge  I get this error? E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:18] <hassan_> password
[21:18] <dom_> hello
[21:18] <Linuz2009> hi did I say that my computer is frozen
[21:18] <guntbert> master: to quote Gho:  When you ask one question over many many many lines, it gets broken up and hard to read as other text is interspersed throughout your question. That is why we ask you to put your complete question/problem on one line.
[21:18] <bcurtiswx> so whats mounting my DVD-ROM in jaunty ?
[21:18] <Linuz2009> hi did I mention that I need help?
[21:18] <Soul_Shadow> its automatic
[21:18] <h00k> !ask | Linuz2009
[21:18] <Soul_Shadow> open your computer & on left you can see teh drives just click or double click to mount them
[21:18] <dom_> hello
[21:18] <Gho> AustinS: when fullscreen, I get a draggable 'progress bar' for a video onscreen.  When windowed, there's one in the main VLC window.
[21:19] <hhp2k1> Hey everyone, quick question.  I'm trying to set up dual-monitor in Ubuntu 9.04 on an older PC; an Nvidia Geforce3 AGP graphics card on primary, and an 8MB ATI graphics card on PCI.  Can these two coexist in ubuntu and work together, or no?
[21:19] <AustinS> Gho, Even on embedded wmp videos in Firefox?
[21:19] <bcurtiswx> Soul_Shadow: the reason I ask, is because inserting a CD or DVD into that drive.. causes ubuntu to crash
[21:19] <hassan_> any one help me to remove my password plz
[21:19] <th0r> Linuz2009, you haven't supplied any information for people to work with, not even a decent explanation of what happens. What do the logs say? What error messages to you get? When exactly does the problem occur.
[21:19] <Soul_Shadow> ooohh ok tehn you might have a cd-rom issue you try replace it?
[21:19] <dom_> comment allez vous????
[21:19] <Soul_Shadow> this sounds like a hardware issue
[21:19] <Gho> AustinS: AH, that's the part I missed.  I don't watch a lot of embedded media
[21:19] <Linuz2009> IF anyone going to answer me then the question I had to ask is my computer is frozen and I can't check my file system for bad block
[21:19] <bcurtiswx> not yet, thinking about it
[21:19] <Gho> !fr | dom_
[21:20] <h00k> !fr | dom_
[21:20] <rww> !password | hassan_
[21:20] <Soul_Shadow> ANYWAY I need help removing sun-java6-jre I get this error upon purging it: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:20] <morricone_> anyone know anything about QCAD
[21:20] <morricone_> ?
[21:20] <Yondering> hhp2k1, without knowing better.. my first guess would be No.  It would mean installing two X servers, and two generally don't coexist well.
[21:20] <h00k> Soul_Shadow: do you have Synaptic or the Update manager open at the same time?
[21:20] <AustinS> How can I show file sizes in terminal window using ls command?
[21:20] <Stupendoussteve> AustinS: ls -h
[21:20] <AustinS> Stupendoussteve: thanks
[21:20] <Soul_Shadow> nope ther eall closed I restarted pc befoer I tried purge
[21:20] <h00k> AustinS: type man ls in the terminal to see all of its options
[21:21] <Stupendoussteve> AustinS: ls -lh that is
[21:21] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Thank you. Installing two X Servers, is it possible though?
[21:21] <AustinS> h00k: good idea.  Need to remember that more often
[21:21] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: indeed; are thre any other indications of something going pear-shaped before that one line? Could you pastebin the output of your apt-get --purge command?
[21:21] <hhp2k1> :|
[21:21] <Soul_Shadow> ok hold on
[21:21] <h00k> AustinS: you can view the man (manual) page for commands by doing man 'command' to show all possible options and documentation
[21:22] <AustinS> I have the adobe Air bin file sitting on my desktop.  I can't just open it and I tried ./AdobeAirInstaller.bin and it says no such file or dir
[21:22] <zeroxten2> hi, i'm trying to rescue a dodgy grub setup on a laptop with an encrypted partition from a live cd. my plan was to access the encrypted volume using cryptsetup, chroot into it and run grub from there to fix it. My problem is that cryptsetup is returning "could not access the device" on a luksOpen even though luksDump looks fine. Any thoughts? many thanks.
[21:22] <dreamy> whats a good ati ? anyone ? :) .. pls..:S ?
[21:22] <Stupendoussteve> AustinS: Did you cd to Desktop first?
[21:22] <Gho> AustinS: try ~/Desktop/AdobeAirInstaller.bin
[21:22] <Yondering> hhp2k1, as far as I know, you can install as many as you want.. using more than one at a time though, I doubt it.
[21:22] <AustinS> ya, I think it was a case problem
[21:22] <AustinS> AIR had to be capitalized
[21:22] <Stupendoussteve> Tab completion is your friend :)
[21:22] <Soul_Shadow> http://pastebin.com/m4cd163bc ehre is my entier error list
[21:23] <AustinS> seriously, I love that about linux, need to get used to it.  I'm a newb, just installed two days ago
[21:23] <mib_1dc3sc33> Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could help me. I've embattled by Grub's error 17. I wiped my Open-Suse partitions to install Ubuntu, but now I have it installed and can't access it or Vista. My Ubuntu flash drive only takes me to the tour and I don't have a Vista boot loader. Any help would be apreciated.
[21:23] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Understood.  Thank you. :)
[21:23] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: look at lines 10-12 and obey :)
[21:24] <spikes> anyone know anything about audio sound rappers for team speak and stuff? ~asound or something of that nature
[21:24] <Yondering> hhp2k1, if you want a simple way out.. invest $100 on a low end nvidia or ati card with dual video ports.
[21:24] <Soul_Shadow> Well Gho if I could install it I would not be trying to remove it
[21:24] <Soul_Shadow> I cannot get it to install I need 2 purge teh crap before I can install it...
[21:25] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: what happens when you try apt-get --reinstall install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-bin ?
[21:25] <hassan_> thank you but praplam dont fixed
[21:25] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Unfortunately, the only hardware I have is ALL old, so I would need to invest about $500 in a fully new PC. :P  That's my issue right now.
[21:25] <AustinS> Does anyone know if it is possible to disable showing people entering and leaving this room using Pidgin?  I can't find anything in the settings.
[21:25] <Soul_Shadow> duno lemem rtry
[21:25] <hhp2k1> austinS: Enable the Join/Part hiding plugin, it comes by default.
[21:25] <Soul_Shadow> the problem is I cannot click ok on the Eula
[21:25] <Gho> AustinS: I believe so..  what hhp2k1 said :)
[21:25] <Soul_Shadow> so I canot finish install
[21:26] <AustinS> hhp2k1: checking it out. Awesome. Thanks
[21:26] <Yondering> hhp2k1, PCI cards are still available.. as are AGP, if you know where to look.
[21:26] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: there should be no cicking involved, you're on a commandline here :)
[21:26] <mikerunner> irc.undernet.org
[21:26] <mikerunner> whoops
[21:26] <Soul_Shadow> Gho the java gives u a blue screen EULA agreement u have to click ok
[21:27] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: let me try here and see what I get :)
[21:27] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Thankfully I'm in a pretty nice tech hub area in Toronto, so I'm going scavenger hunting next weekend =D
[21:27] <Soul_Shadow> I cannot click ook on terminal.. Hense No finish aka EROR 1
[21:27] <Soul_Shadow> kk\
[21:27] <h00k> Soul_Shadow: use tab to highlight okay
[21:27] <h00k> Soul_Shadow: and then use "Enter"
[21:27] <Gho> Soul_Shadow:  just as well as I've been meaning to install Puzzle Pirates anyhow ;)
[21:27] <Yondering> hhp2k1, suggest doing a little research on newegg before you do, should give you an idea of what's available :)
[21:28] <Soul_Shadow> I belive I tried that but I attempt again once I get there..
[21:28] <Soul_Shadow> :P
[21:28] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: indeed, that's not a GUI- tab, then enter (or space) is what you ened to do :)
[21:28] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Forgot about newegg.  *bookmarks*  You're awesome!
[21:28] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: that'll be $8.00 ;)
[21:29] <Yondering> hhp2k1, curious, what qualifies as "old"? and what are you using this box for anyway?
[21:29]  * Soul_Shadow gives gho 8 dollard in monopoly money
[21:30] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: Perfect \o/
[21:30] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Primary PC, unfortunately. :(  HP Compaq PGA370, 1.2GHz Celeron, 512MB SDRAM, USB1.1 and an nVidia Geforce3 64MB AGP video card.
[21:30] <Soul_Shadow> now the wait to download java again ....
[21:30] <zeroxten2> any thoughts anyone?
[21:30] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Makes me cringe every time I think about it.
[21:30] <Soul_Shadow> you wil not liek my thoughts there dirty & perverted :)
[21:30] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Thankfully, ubuntu runs rather well on it.
[21:30] <Yondering> hhp2k1, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814139028
[21:30] <QueenInfamous> I need help with Wine
[21:31] <QueenInfamous> i wanna emmulate warcraft 3
[21:31] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Oh, nice.  That would do it nicely.
[21:31] <QueenInfamous> ..how? o.o
[21:31] <AustinS> Adobe Air wants to install an application in "/op1" is this correct?  Where are apps normally stored?
[21:31] <Gho> hhp2k1: As long as you're not planning to play Half-Life 2 or FEAR on it, you should be fine ;)
[21:31] <Yondering> hhp2k1, ballpark, anyway.. I bet you can find something nicer if you dig.
[21:31] <mzz> hhp2k1: I'd expect doubling the ram to make a noticable difference, if you can find ram that fits
[21:31] <Soul_Shadow> Queen shoot wine & just install windows seperate from linux
[21:31] <rumpel2> QueenInfamous, google for WineHQ+Warcraft
[21:31] <guntbert> zeroxten2: sure I got thoughts :-), but I have no idea what your problem is
[21:31] <Gho> AustinS: /op1 or /opt?
[21:31] <AustinS> Gho: let me copy and paste, tiny weird font
[21:31] <hhp2k1> mzz: yeah, 2 512 or 1GB sticks would boost it significantly.  It's the USB1.1 that kills me, lol.
[21:31] <AustinS> Gho: "/opt"
[21:31] <QueenInfamous> Soul_Shadow,  i don't know how to install windows:D
[21:31] <zeroxten2> me neither...  no useful error whatsoever
[21:32] <Gho> AustinS: /opt is.. infrequently used, but it's not unheard of.
[21:32] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Well thank you for pointing me in the right direction :D
[21:32] <Soul_Shadow> LLLool
[21:32] <mzz> hhp2k1: that's fixable, I think (there are pci cards out there that add usb ports)
[21:32] <Soul_Shadow> put in disk & follow instructions lmfao
[21:32] <hhp2k1> Gho: I just want two monitors, haha.
[21:32] <AustinS> Gho: where are apps normally /bin or something?
[21:32] <AustinS> Gho: usr/bin maybe?
[21:32] <QueenInfamous> Soul_Shadow,  that's too big of a deal
[21:32] <Soul_Shadow> when u come to partition manager just make a seperate partition for ntfs
[21:32] <QueenInfamous> can't I just emulate it?
[21:32] <hhp2k1> mzz: This is true.  I might pick one of those up too ... they're rather cheap, I believe.
[21:32] <Soul_Shadow> you can use the linux cd to do that
[21:33] <mzz> hhp2k1: I'd expect them to be, but haven't needed one
[21:33] <Soul_Shadow> resize your Hd partition & leave teh other partition blank
[21:33] <hhp2k1> mzz: Expectantly :P I don't think there's a single person in here running lower-specced hardware than me
[21:33] <Soul_Shadow> Queen teh nyou shouold not be on linux
[21:33] <hhp2k1> mzz: Though I wouldn't expect to be surprised
[21:33] <guntbert> zeroxten2: I didn't want to tease you - what *was* your question?
[21:33] <Gho> AustinS: most things end up under /usr or /usr/local, some some use /opt  (optional software) as some older UNIX systems didn't have /usr/local
[21:33] <zeroxten2> heh
[21:33] <zeroxten2> hi, i'm trying to rescue a dodgy grub setup on a laptop with an encrypted partition from a live cd. my plan was to access the encrypted volume using cryptsetup, chroot into it and run grub from there to fix it. My problem is that cryptsetup is returning "could not access the device" on a luksOpen even though luksDump looks fine. Any thoughts? many thanks.
[21:33] <Gho> AustinS: it's a legacy thing
[21:33] <Soul_Shadow> Queen if you cannot handle somthing simple as installing windows U  do not belong on linux ...
[21:33] <Linuz2009> sorry I was out did any one answer my question?
[21:34] <Linuz2009> ANYONE?
[21:34] <QueenInfamous> lawl,do you hate me or something?
[21:34] <mzz> hhp2k1: my primary system isn't *that* fast by modern standards either, although faster than yours
[21:34] <LjL> Soul_Shadow: "do not belong on linux"? what the hell are you talking about?
[21:34] <hhp2k1> Linuz2009: You can't possibly expect us to answer your question if you ask it and then leave. :|
[21:34] <alina> hello can somebody say how i can write in the chat to one single person?
[21:34] <guntbert> zeroxten2: sorry, no help from me there ;-(
[21:34] <Soul_Shadow> No queen I am just honest.. you need to learn windows & how to do commands
[21:34] <zeroxten2> no worries
[21:34] <Soul_Shadow> linux is way above your ability's
[21:34] <Gho> alina: /msg Person message goes here
[21:34] <mzz> hhp2k1: (athlon xp 2600+, 1280MiB of ram, radeon 9600xt for video)
[21:35] <guntbert> !who | alina
[21:35] <Soul_Shadow> Finally I got java
[21:35] <hhp2k1> mzz: Not bad, good for everyday use ... just like this one, but this one chokes if you give it too much to do
[21:35] <w00tz> i'm looking for a wireless adapter (usb) that integrates seamlessly into ubuntu, does anyone have any suggestions?
[21:35] <kindofabuzz> no sound. Jaunty. Hapened after an X crash. suggestions?
[21:35] <Linuz2009> okay, someone was calling me so next time I'll post it when I'm leaving
[21:35] <alina> jarz: /hi are you on?
[21:35] <Soul_Shadow> Queen I would suggest using an XP cd & formatting your HD & installing Xp
[21:35] <nadan_> err how do i know if ntfs support is written into my kernal... when i mount the drive it asks me to specify filetype :-\
[21:35] <alina> thank you
[21:35] <Linuz2009> I'll repeat my question again
[21:35] <Soul_Shadow> learn how to use windows & more about your pc before u get into somthing as advanced as linux
[21:35] <unop> Linuz2009, it doesn't make sense answering a question if the person who asked it has left ... does it?
[21:35] <hhp2k1> edson: There's a town in Alberta, Canada named after you.
[21:36] <mzz> hhp2k1: upgrading the ram from 512MiB to 1280MiB really helped multitasking-wise. Running a browser with a bunch of tabs tends to eat up 200MiB or so, so there's not that much room left with 512 total.
[21:36] <Yondering> hhp2k1, look for something from a prominent hardware vendor..  couple more I'd recommend looking at..  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150107 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121260
[21:36] <Linuz2009> no. it doesn't but that person could leave a note next time
[21:36] <mzz> hhp2k1: well, not quite 200MiB, but still
[21:36] <Linuz2009> so again
[21:36] <Gho> unop: well, the channel is logged, so the questioner could read the log later to look for an answer.
[21:36] <hhp2k1> mzz: Not quite, but close. :P
[21:36] <unop> nadan_, ntfs support is provided by a loadable kernel module ..  try providing the filesystem type to mount there.
[21:37] <StevenTyler> ok guys gotta go now, computer about to be restarted by Jaunty
[21:37] <jake> anyone need computer help
[21:37] <StevenTyler> thanks and bye
[21:37] <mzz> hhp2k1: other specs don't matter as much as long as you're a bit patient and know how to use "nice" on long-running tasks
[21:37] <hhp2k1> Yondering: The first one is nice - I've got converters for DVI ports from other PC builds.
[21:37] <Linuz2009> my computer  frozen frequently and can't run bad blocks
[21:37] <alina> :/ jarz
[21:38] <mzz> nadan_: try ntfs-3g as filesystem type
[21:38] <hhp2k1> mzz: Really, I think I'm just going to invest a bit of money into a new mobo and a 512 stick of DDR (I already have one kicking around, so I'd be up to a gig)
[21:38] <pagarill> I'm having trouble connecting to my wlan router, can somebody please help me?
[21:38] <AustinS> How do I move an app to another desktop without dragging it?
[21:38] <hhp2k1> mzz: I hate the fact that I'm on SDRAM and Usb1.1 ... I feel like an old man :P
[21:38] <kindofabuzz> hhp2k1, me too
[21:38] <Gho> AustinS: alt-shift-arrow
[21:38] <Yondering> hhp2k1, personally, I'd probably flip a coin.  I've had excellent luck with XFX' nvidia products, but Asus know thier game too.
[21:38]  * hhp2k1 high-fives kindofabuzz
[21:39] <mzz> hhp2k1: yeah, upgrades get a bit hard to come by (had some fun finding a new cpu heatsink+fan for an old system recently)
[21:39] <hhp2k1> Yondering: Oh yeah, both are definitely solid
[21:39] <Linuz2009> I have no system errors
[21:39] <Linuz2009> only frozen windows
[21:39] <Gho> AustinS: correctuon- ctrl-alt-shift-arrow
[21:39] <Linuz2009> and humming sound from my computer
[21:39] <nadan_> either way it doesn't work i get "mount:unkonwn filesytem type 'ntfs'"
[21:39] <kindofabuzz> hhp2k1, 1G sdram, usb1.1, 1.5Ghz P4..but running great =)
[21:39] <Linuz2009> CPU is on average
[21:39] <AustinS> Gho:  there it goes :)
[21:40] <Gho> Linuz2009: move the PC away from, or shut down, the Tesla coil in the garage ;)
[21:40] <kindofabuzz> no sound. Jaunty. Hapened after an X crash. suggestions?
[21:40] <hhp2k1> mzz: That's always a trip, eh? Reminds me of a buddy of mine who builds computers, a big lug with a temper ... I can't remember how many mobo's hes destroyed trying to remove intel P4 heatsinks
[21:40] <hhp2k1> kindofabuzz: Better than me - 1.2GHz Celeron, 512MB SDRam :P
[21:40] <Linuz2009> Gho: what? Could you define in a simpler term?
[21:40] <Linuz2009> Gho: what is a garage in computer term?
[21:41]  * hhp2k1 is on the floor laughing : Gho
[21:41] <Soul_Shadow> I am not teasting I ma being honest please do to be abusive gunbert I am talking to her & she understand what I am saying  & YES I helped her out!
[21:41] <Linuz2009> Gho: you want me to shut down my computer but for what purpose?
[21:41] <Gho> Linuz2009: I was making a joke, sir :)  When you have time, Google 'Tesla Coil'
[21:41] <Linuz2009> Gho: my computer had this long humming sound and it mostly sound very busy.
[21:41] <Barridus> what's the best way to disable recent documents in jaunty, pls
[21:41] <jake> does anyone need computer help
[21:42] <tneyrpo> important question: what would happen if i'd type ":(){ :|:& };:" (without quotes) into a shell?
[21:42] <Barridus> i see various workarounds to do it for previous versions of ubuntu, anyone have a "best" way for jaunty?
[21:42] <Slart> does anyone know of a way to get the color of a certain pixel on the current desktop from the command line?
[21:42] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, fork bomb
[21:42] <Gho> !warning
[21:42] <Gho> tneyrpo: DO NOT run that command!
[21:42] <jussi01> !danger | tneyrpo
[21:43] <tneyrpo> erm
[21:43] <tneyrpo> i just typed it
[21:43] <SirErugor> hehe nice bot you have got there :p
[21:43] <tneyrpo> ...on a server account
[21:43] <SirErugor> haha bad luck
[21:43] <tneyrpo> ffffff...
[21:43] <nowth> !fixMyNewSuspendProblem
[21:43] <tneyrpo> does it stop sometimes?
[21:43] <Gho> tneyrpo: /me hopes that server has ulimit set up right
[21:43] <Slasher`> what does that command actually do?
[21:43] <Linuz2009> well I still don't admit that its funny
[21:43] <nowth> had to try
[21:43] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, no
[21:43] <jussi01> nowth: whats the issue?
[21:43] <tneyrpo> can't ssh in anymore
[21:43] <Slart> Slasher`: google for forkbomb
[21:43] <mzz> tneyrpo: can bring the system to a grinding halt if it doesn't have a limit on the number of processes per user
[21:43] <Gho> Slasher`: it's a recursive forking process
[21:43] <Linuz2009> so anyone is willing to answer my question
[21:44] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, it's a fork bomb.. it only stops when there are no more ram left or inodes
[21:44] <tneyrpo> does it use 100% cpu as well or anything like that?
[21:44] <mzz> tneyrpo: yep
[21:44] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, which brings the system to its knees
[21:44] <Slasher`> ahh i see, just curious, thanks Slart and Gho
[21:44] <tneyrpo> basically, is it safe to leave it running until tomorrow morning?
[21:44] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, it never stops ;)
[21:44] <tneyrpo> otherwise i'd have to drive to the university right now and reboot the machine
[21:44] <Slart> tneyrpo: it probably won't kill anything.. but the computer might be unusable
[21:45] <tneyrpo> no problem
[21:45] <mzz> tneyrpo: the cpu usage is not much of a problem though. Problem is it's exponentially spawning more processes, and they all need a bit of ram to run. So it tends to thrash to a halt swapping bazillions of processes in and out.
[21:45] <SirErugor> tneyrpo, I'd go for a ride if it was me
[21:45] <Slart> tneyrpo: it's just a useless program that tries to run itself a gazillion times
[21:45] <hhp2k1> Awesome, found a second PCI ATI card. let's see if I can get this puppy rolling.
[21:45] <tneyrpo> it's not an important server
[21:45] <Gho> tneyrpo: or just reboot gracefully while you still can
[21:45] <nowth> jussi01, I *can* resume from Suspend-to-RAM, but the screen now remains dead on TTY1-6. I can type there, run commands and everything, an X comes back up, too.
[21:45] <hhp2k1> BRB everyone!
[21:45] <Linuz2009> Hi, my computer had this long humming sound and I want to know what does that mean, I know my CPU is pretty averaged and my memory had used more than half
[21:45]  * hhp2k1 blasts off into the realm of dusty old hardware heaven
[21:45] <jussi01> nowth: which gfx card?
[21:45] <Slart> gazillions.. bazillion.. my bad ;)
[21:45] <nowth> geforce 7950 GT
[21:45] <mzz> tneyrpo: if you can still log in you can probably find a way to kill the problematic processes, although that's also a bit annoying because they're all bash
[21:46] <nowth> the problem doesn't require me to start X
[21:46] <c0ntract0r> where can someone upload a screenshot for a temp url easily?
[21:46] <Gho> Linuz2009: is the hum perhaps coming from one of your fans?
[21:46] <Slart> c0ntract0r: imagebin
[21:46] <Linuz2009> Gho: it is.
[21:46] <tneyrpo> ok, guess i should have tried it in a VM first. thanks for your help :)
[21:46] <Gho> Linuz2009: Well, if the humming noise is coming from your fan, it's not a software problem- you just have a noisy fan
[21:46] <Soul_Shadow> I now have java thx all for ur help
[21:47] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: \o/ my pleasure
[21:47] <nowth> jussi: when I can boot into a console and never start X, I still have same problem.
[21:47] <Linuz2009> Gho: the light is constantly blink so rapidly that its like a light now
[21:47] <Gho> Linuz2009: your fan has a.. light on it?
[21:47] <Soul_Shadow> ok guess not
[21:47] <nowth> Gho: mine does, too
[21:47] <Soul_Shadow> I need firefox plugin now :P
[21:47] <Gho> tneyrpo: Now you know not to run unknown commands on a production envirnoment
[21:47] <nadan_> how do i load a module?   lmod | grep ntfs doesn't come up with nething
[21:48] <nadan_> lsmod rather
[21:48] <Soul_Shadow> is it  sun-java-plugin?? the package?
[21:48] <Linuz2009> Gho: No, the cylinder symbol on a laptop
[21:48] <guntbert> nadan_: modprobe ...
[21:48] <static> does anyone know if there's a way to get samba not to work like crap on ubuntu server 8.04?
[21:48] <Linuz2009> Gho: you know what I mean, its like telling you how busy it is.
[21:48] <Gho> Linuz2009: when you said the humming noise was coming from a fan, I apparently made a bad assumtion that the noise was in fact coming from a fan. Perhaps I had bad information.
[21:49] <nadan_> lolz at the fact that my computer doesn't have modprobe  i thought that was it :-\
[21:49] <Soul_Shadow> Hey gho u know what package name for firefox java plugin is??
[21:49] <Linuz2009> Gho: well fan is inside my PC and a fan is a another physical device
[21:50] <LjL> Linuz2009: no, it's simply telling you when the hard drive is being accessed.
[21:50] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: sun-java6-plugin :)
[21:50] <Soul_Shadow> thx I just found it :P
[21:50] <LjL> Linuz2009: nothing to do with fans, or for that matter nothing intrinsically to do with business (although it's likely that when your computer is very, very busy, your hard drive will get a lot of use)
[21:50] <Linuz2009> LjL: then why the cylinder symbol is a light now?
[21:51] <Linuz2009> LjL: it suppose to blink
[21:51] <Gho> Linuz2009: because something's accessing your hard drive
[21:51] <LjL> Linuz2009: because the hard drive is being used all the time.
[21:51] <Linuz2009> Gho: then what should I do, my computer are getting slower
[21:52] <jake>  whats the problem linuz2009
[21:52] <Linuz2009> jake: cylinder symbol on my laptop is a light now and instead of blinking.
[21:52] <Linuz2009> jake: someone told me that something is accessing my hard drive
[21:53] <Gho> Linuz2009: I'd look into what programs you have running that might be indexing your hard drive
[21:53] <mrpockets> hey friends
[21:53] <chaosphere> Hi i'm having some problems after resizing a partition. 'parted' and 'df -h' show a diffent size. http://pastebin.com/m19236235 Can anyone help me out?
[21:53] <Linuz2009> jake: and its causing this fan humming
[21:53] <eugman> Is there a tool for renaming filenames so they can be moved to a flash drive?
[21:53] <LjL> eugman: why do they need to be renamed?
[21:53] <Linuz2009> Gho: yeah?
[21:54] <stillfree> ciao a tutti
[21:54] <guntbert> Linuz2009: are you on jaunty?
[21:54] <LjL> !it | stillfree
[21:54] <Supersaiyan_IV> I'd like to somebody to confirm a Compiz bug for me. 1.Run gedit with two tabs running 2. enter the compiz 'scale' effect 3. while in scale effect close gedit by clicking mouse3 on it. Compiz should crash.
[21:54] <Gho> Linuz2009: If your hard drive is being accessed constantly, it may cause it to run hotter, which in turn will cause your comptuer to turn up some fans.  This is normal.
[21:54] <stillfree> hi!!!!
[21:54] <Linuz2009> Gho: then what cause my computer to freeze?
[21:55] <Supersaiyan_IV> if somebody finds the bug, im filing it on launchpad
[21:55] <Soul_Shadow> OK I need help I have java all installed but it shows up white screen & I know the game works
[21:55] <Linuz2009> guntbert: yes
[21:55] <mzz> chaosphere: did you grow the partition, and was the size in df before equal to what it is now?
[21:55] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: sometime Java apps take a while to initialize, especially if Java's not yet been run on that system.  Give it a couple minutes.
[21:56] <chaosphere> mzz: yes you are right. I grew it for about 3gig
[21:56] <AustinS> Do I need any type of virus protection or any other security stuff? I have Adblock+ and Better Privacy for Firefox.  Is anything else really necessary?
[21:56] <LjL> !virus
[21:56] <Soul_Shadow> possible I need 2 restart os?
[21:56] <guntbert> Linuz2009: I killed my tracker applet because of max cpu use, there seems to be a problem (like "index corrupt")
[21:56] <eugman> LjL: It didn't specify what was wring but i tried copying over some files and it said invalid filename. They have names like eng-301-podcast-2259-215494.mp3
[21:56] <LjL> AustinS: if you are not behind a firewalling router, you might consider a firewall
[21:56] <dreamy> whats a good ati to game ? anyone ?
[21:56] <ikonia> dreamy: ati to game ?
[21:56] <Linuz2009> guntbert: my CPU is not maxed
[21:56] <LjL> eugman: no idea why those would be invalid...
[21:56] <mzz> chaosphere: sounds like for some reason the partition was resized but the filesystem on it wasn't. I'd expect unmounting the partition and running "resize2fs /dev/sda2" to help (but back up your data first, etc)
[21:57] <dreamy> i good ati.. that i can buy.. to game :)
[21:57] <AustinS> LjL: is firewall not on by default?  How do I configure a firewall?  I am behind a router, but it is a laptop and I travel.
[21:57] <dreamy> ikonia
[21:57] <ikonia> dreamy: try ##hardware
[21:57] <LjL> !firewall | AustinS
[21:57] <guntbert> Linuz2009: hwat does system monitor say?
[21:57] <guntbert> *what
[21:57] <Gho> AustinS: look into ufw and gufw
[21:57] <AustinS> awesome, thanks
[21:57] <dreamy> ikonia: ty .. no one answered it #ati
[21:57] <eugman> LjL: hmm, maybe it's the foldername then. I'll have to check
[21:57] <LjL> AustinS: no firewall is on by default, because there are very few open services by default, so if you don't install any services...
[21:57] <ikonia> dreamy: #ati is normally for software support only, ##hardware is probably better
[21:57] <mrpockets> So I'm using 8.10 with an Audigy2 sound card
[21:57] <dreamy> ikonia: nice channel
[21:57] <dreamy> ikonia: ok.. perfect
[21:57] <dreamy> :)
[21:58] <mrpockets> Alsa mixer has *always* been a jiant multi channel sound board, but now its just a single volume level
[21:58] <Linuz2009> guntbert: Memory used 56.3% of 488.6MB
[21:58] <mrpockets> How can i get the other settings back?
[21:58] <AustinS> I'm studying to be an IT Auditor, just finished school, and that is why I am trying to learn my way around linux a little bit better before I start later this month.  Security is something I really have to focus on.  I've been using linux on and off for about 8 years but never consistently enough to feel really comfortable like I do in Windows.
[21:58] <Linuz2009> guntbert: CPU in the mid 30's - 40's
[21:59] <guntbert> Linuz2009: no idea then - but you could still "pause" tracker - see if it helps
[21:59] <chaosphere> mzz: i was afraid you'll advice me to this. can i do a backup with dd into an image and play it back if something goes wrong?
[21:59] <Linuz2009> guntbert: pause tracker?
[21:59] <eugman> LjL: Ah, it looks like the directory was named poorly. Thanks for stirring my memory.
[22:00] <Soul_Shadow> ok been least 5 min since last laod java not working any suggestions? everythingis installed..
[22:00] <mzz> chaosphere: yes (and I must admit I've used resize2fs myself without doing extra backups of partitions involved, although my data files are backed up regularly)
[22:00] <h00k> Soul_Shadow: have you tired to restart Firefox before you tried it?
[22:01] <chaosphere> mzz: ok i give it a try. Thanks a lot for helping!
[22:01] <mzz> chaosphere: I'm a firm believer in the rule that as long as you make sure you have backups of everything important you'll never need them :)
[22:01] <Soul_Shadow> yes
[22:01] <quizme> can somebody help me install keepassx, https://launchpad.net/~keepassx/+archive/ppa
[22:01] <locodoso> hey.
[22:01] <Soul_Shadow> first thing I did I also restarted the pc
[22:01] <quizme> i don't know how to install this ppa thing, and the gpg and asc files
[22:02] <quizme> i'm confused
[22:02] <rizvan> help undelete
[22:02] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: perhaps try another Java applet to ensure that Java and the plugin are working properly?
[22:02] <locodoso> i need some help. my wifi card doesnt work in ubuntu. i have a wmp54gx with ubuntu 9.04
[22:02] <locodoso> how do i install the drivers from this?
[22:02] <rizvan> can we undelte deleted documents folder, rm -rf documents ???
[22:03] <h00k> rizvan: negative
[22:03] <ikonia> rizvan: that will delete anything you want
[22:03] <VCoolio> quizme it's explained here https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#keys?action=show&redirect=PPAKeys
[22:03] <chaosphere> mzz: yes, but playing around with the root partition can always be a fast way to shoot yourself in your foot.
[22:04] <dkulchenko> So... I've installed Ubuntu 8.10 (actually Linux Mint 6, but whatever) onto a 4G USB drive, and "usb-creator" generated a 3.1GB casper-rw file for persistence. But when I boot into the system, it only shows the size of / as 1009MB, with only 800MB of free space. What's going on?
[22:04] <Flare183> !wireless | locodoso (this might help you)
[22:04] <happosade> Can I selecet -O2 or -Os from gcc over make?
[22:05] <rizvan> I was playing around with find . -iname *.exe -delete
[22:05] <quizme> vcoolio i read it but it's complicated
[22:05] <Soul_Shadow> actually teh java works to a point in Runscape teh nturns white on laod & stays at loading some crap
[22:05] <mzz> chaosphere: you'll have to do this with the partition unmounted afaik, which means from a livecd if it's /
[22:05] <rizvan> then i did locate -i *.pdf|find delete
[22:05] <x_> hi
[22:05] <Soul_Shadow> but I been on it in windows & know that it functions
[22:05] <rizvan> which deleted every file in my HOME and hung the system
[22:05] <mzz> rizvan: err, "find delete"?
[22:05] <rizvan> yup
[22:05] <quizme> vcoolio do i have to have a launch pad login ?
[22:05] <rizvan> weird mistake
[22:05] <happosade> !hello | x_
[22:05] <chaosphere> mzz: yes that's what i also did for checking the filesystem etc.
[22:05] <mzz> rizvan: that wouldn't have done what you said
[22:05] <VCoolio> quizme: not that complicated but Iets see. No, no login needed
[22:05] <c0ntract0r> Can anyone tell me how to install an equalizer on amarok with 9.04?
[22:06] <rizvan> find -delete
[22:06] <Soul_Shadow> OK I am running a diffrent java applet & I cannot access it either
[22:06] <rizvan> find -delete is like find -exec rm {} \;
[22:06] <mzz> rizvan: most likely it would've given you "find: `delete': No such file or directory". If there actually *is* a file or directory called "delete" it would've listed its contents
[22:06] <Soul_Shadow> everything installedwithout errors so why would my java not function now?
[22:06] <VCoolio> quizme: first add the repository lines. Open synaptic, go to settings > repositories
[22:06] <mzz> rizvan: ahhh, find -delete, not find delete
[22:06] <mzz> rizvan: I'm pretty sure you wanted "xargs rm", not "find -delete"
[22:07] <rizvan> mzz, can we not undelete atleast my Documents directory
[22:07] <AustinS> I am so used to double click the top left icon of a window to close it.  How in the world can I enable this?  I'm trying to break the habit but I can't stop.

[22:07] <mzz> rizvan: I have zero experience with undelete utilities, sorry
[22:07] <guntbert> Linuz2009: I have an applet that looks a bit like a looking glass. It controls "tracker" (it indexes your files to make searches faster)
[22:07] <quizme> vcoolio I added the repository lines.  that was easy.
[22:07] <Gho> buntunuby: it won't boot at all, or it just won't boot intoX?
[22:07] <happosade> Can I selecet -O2 or -Os from gcc over make?
[22:08] <quizme> vcoolio i also added the gpg key, but i'm not sure if it's the right one or if i added it the right way

[22:12] <boritek> how can i rebuild the installed package database. The dpkg-query still lists packages that i have just removed!
[22:12] <alexxx> oh. i see.thanks for the help.. do u know any good libraries with svg icons?
[22:12] <Gho> buntunuby: try loggint in and running dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver
[22:12] <dkulchenko> alexxx: jpg/gif/png/bmp are all raster formats and cannot be converted to SVG.
[22:12] <Gho> buntunuby: then statx and see if it works
[22:12] <alexxx> tthanks
[22:12] <dkulchenko> So... I've installed Ubuntu 8.10 (actually Linux Mint 6, but whatever) onto a 4G USB drive, and "usb-creator" generated a 3.1GB casper-rw file for persistence. But when I boot into the system, it only shows the size of / as 1009MB, with only 800MB of free space. What's going on?
[22:12] <Soul_Shadow> Gho any idea why my java plugin not workign for firefox??
[22:12] <Gho> buntunuby: 'startx' rather that 'statx' :p
[22:12] <Eevee> alexxx: tango icons all have svg versions
[22:13] <ray66> Ubuntu Hardy gnome desktop 4 workspaces How do I add different wallpaper to each workspace
[22:13] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: I'm honestly not sure; I've never seen that behaviour.  You could perhaps try installing java5 rather than java6?
[22:13] <Linuz2009> guntbert: yeah, how does this applet help me?
[22:13] <quizme> vcoolio what's the diagnosis doctor?  is it fatal?
[22:13] <Soul_Shadow> nope it was all java 6 I watched the install
[22:13] <ctartamella> hi have an X question.  I have an nvidia based laptop that I want to hook an external dell widescreen display to.  I'm using the nvidia proprietary drivers (v180).  Using twinview on another monitor works like a charm.  However, even using this display by itself and not in twinview i get distorted rainbowish colors on the display.  i suspect it isnt reporting something to Xorg properly.  Anyone have any thoughts?
[22:13] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: I know; I was asking if you were willing to try java5 rather than java6
[22:13] <VCoolio> quizme you pasted this as key in text editor and imported? http://paste.ubuntu.com/169114/

[22:14] <ikonia> Soul_Shadow: how did you install it ?
[22:14] <boritek> how can i rebuild the installed package database??? The dpkg-query still lists packages that i have just removed!

[22:17] <winboard> hi
[22:17] <ray66> Ubuntu Hardy gnome desktop 4 workspaces How do I add different wallpaper to each workspace
[22:17] <dkulchenko> When Ubuntu boots from Live USB, it mounts the casper-rw as a root device, right?
[22:17] <ikonia> ray66: the functionality is not supported yet
[22:17] <montel> im wating for the 3gb to download. how much RAM did you give it? HDD space too?
[22:17] <dkulchenko> *as a loop device
[22:17] <ikonia> montel: this is offtopic
[22:17] <buntunuby> gho it says xorg-xserver is not installed
[22:17] <IndyGunFreak> ray66: unfortunately, you can't w/ Gnome.. i think there's an application you can install, that will do it.. but it won't by default.
[22:17] <montel> ikonia, ok sure.
[22:18] <VCoolio> quizme: no, I don't know, it's what I got when I clicked the key for your package. You use jaunty? It may be different each time, don't know. At least if you trust the package install it, the warning is just a warning, not an error
[22:18] <ikonia> montel: thanks

[22:18] <montel> ubottu, vm
[22:18] <quizme> vcoolio: i use 9.04
[22:18] <AustinS> Where can I get a list of hotkeys?  I like being quick and using my keyboard for everything.  I want to be able to manipulate windows using hotkeys.  For example, showing my desktop, sending window to second desktop (ctrl+alt+shit+arrow), and stuff like that.  Also how complicated are the cool effects I've seen for showing the cube of desktops?
[22:19] <Gho> buntunuby: I'm a dolt.  try xserver-xorg :)
[22:20] <Soul_Shadow> well Gho any idea's?? my java not working but firefox not updated.. could be issue?
[22:20] <quizme> vcoolio: so i can install it now ?
[22:20] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: updating firefox is worth a try
[22:20] <quizme> vcoolio: don't i do something like apt-get install keepassx  ?
[22:20] <ikonia> Soul_Shadow: is ubuntu offering a firefox update
[22:20] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: I would still be intersted in seeing if installing java 5 rather than 6 works.
[22:20] <Eevee> AustinS: Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts lists the gnome ones.  for ridiculous 3d effects (as well as some actual useful stuff) install compizconfig settings manager and go nuts
[22:21] <VCoolio> quizme: yes, with sudo, but check ubuntuforums there is a script that fixes your repo keys problem, I'll go look for it
[22:21] <blaise> Could somoene please explain to me how the broadcom-sta driver is working with WEP passphrase usning NetworkManager, but won't work any other way? (manual, wicd, or anything else)
[22:21] <robinpahwa123> [OFF-TOPIC] Do somebody know how can I check the performance of my two executables(exe on windows OS) after I optimize my code. Any Idea will be of great help

[22:22] <ikonia> Soul_Shadow: have you restarted firefox since you updated ?
[22:22] <Soul_Shadow> if I have 2 re-do my os I gunna have to kill u gho :)
[22:22] <robinpahwa123> bc: Do you have any idea ?
[22:23] <Soul_Shadow> Of course since I restarted the pc
[22:23] <Soul_Shadow> read my coments
[22:23] <Gho> Soul_Shadow: I'll refund your $8.00 of monopoly money too
[22:23] <iliketofrolic666> how do use an ati tv tuner in ubuntu?
[22:23] <ikonia> Soul_Shadow: there has been a lot of comments apologies if I missed that
[22:23] <buntunuby> gho your awesome that worked back up now do i need to save anything or is it good
[22:23] <jack1> how would one fix broken dns, i just installed dosbox on my machine and it crashed then after reboot my dns is broke any ideas peeps

[22:24] <ikonia> jack1: define broke please
[22:24] <buntunuby> gho Thank You very much greatly appreciated
[22:24] <Gho> jack1: are you unable to resolve DNS? look at /etc/resolv.conf
[22:24] <Gho> buntunuby: my pleasure! \o/
[22:24] <quizme> vcoolio: thanks for your help.
[22:24] <jack1> i can ping ips but cant resolve anythin
[22:24] <mneptok> ikonia: "having no money"
[22:24] <quizme> vcoolio it works now :)
[22:24] <Gho> jack1: look at your /etc/resolv.conf
[22:24] <VCoolio> quizme: the warnings were for other repositories than keepassx; to fix use the first post of this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056099&highlight=ppa+keys but even better is do it yourself and understand what needs to be done
[22:24] <ctartamella> jack1: check that a dns server is in /etc/resolv.conf
[22:25] <mneptok> ikonia: whereas "broken" means "not functioning within expected parameters" ;)
[22:25] <Gho> jack1: you should have a line that looks like 'nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>' or somesuch
[22:25] <jack1> k 1 sec ill go to other pc and look at it what should be in there
[22:25] <quizme> vcoolio: thanks i'm sleepy.  need to take a nap i think.  thanks so much.
[22:25] <VCoolio> quizme: ok, bookmark the link I gave and sleep well
[22:27] <ctartamella> hi have an X question.  I have an nvidia based laptop that I want to hook an external dell widescreen display to.  I'm using the nvidia proprietary drivers (v180).  Using twinview on another monitor works like a charm.  However, even using this display by itself and not in twinview i get distorted rainbowish colors on the display.  i suspect it isnt reporting something to Xorg properly.  Anyone have any thoughts?
[22:27] <Anon6233> i was wondering if i could get some assistance
[22:28] <Gho> ctartamella: what video mode are you using on the displ
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> Anon6233: just ask..
[22:28] <Gho> !ask | Anon6233
[22:28] <jack1> hmmmm in etc i hace a dir caled resolvconf no file inside that dir is another dir called update-libc/.d
[22:28] <Anon6233> if anyone can help me please pm, as this applet is sort of weird wih only half text showing up
[22:28] <nmvictor> ANon6233:about what?
[22:28] <kora-chan> heya im using jaunty x64; after a installation crashed i cant get synaptic/apt working again,... all i get are segmentation faults,.. any ideas?
[22:28] <ctartamella> gho: 1680x1050 60hz.  but ive tried every mode and all have the same result
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> Anon6233: what do you mean apple?
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> *applet
[22:29] <sima> ctartamella, I would like to get also those distorted image, how do you did that? :P
[22:29] <Gho> jack1: that sounds... odd.  Try making a new file in /etc called 'resolv.conf' with one line- "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>"
[22:29] <jack1> Gho: ok i will try
[22:29] <ctartamella> sima: well wehn i fix it ill let you know how to reproduce ;)
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> kora-chan: did you fail installing an application
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[22:30] <Kungen354646> can someone help me get alsa working?
[22:30] <Gho> ctartamella: if you take a screenshot and open that, do the distortions show up in the file, or are they an artifact of the monitor itself?
[22:30] <IndyGunFreak> !alsa > Kungen354646
[22:31] <jack1> anyone ever heard of avahi-daemon /
[22:31] <AustinS> .
[22:31] <jorgerosa> hi
[22:31] <ctartamella> gho: the monitor works fine on other machines/OSes..... so i doubt its that.  i can see the ubuntu background on the left side, but as it goes across the screen it gets more distorted
[22:31] <sima> ctartamella, it seems to me that it is question for eather nvidia pripriatary driver support or channel for nvidia drivers
[22:31] <kora-chan> IndyGunFreak: kinda. i wanted to add additional language support and it told me that language support for gb isnt fully installed and that it wanted to install the help files for openoffice which i did let him do. dureing the installation it kinda crashed and it told me to do a "apt-get install -f" to fix this,.. but that failed to and now i cant even open a packet manager or do something with apt
[22:32] <IndyGunFreak> kora-chan: well what error do you get when you sudo apt-get install something?
[22:32] <ctartamella> sima: ive done this successfully with another smaller display.... so i think its more an issue with the monitor itself.
[22:32] <Ljorring> someone has experience with sound problems in ubuntu 8.04?
[22:32] <ls> How can i show all the directories have 777 permission and thier path in shell ?
[22:33] <VCoolio> kora-chan: sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin
[22:33] <ctartamella> sima: is there an nvidia channel?
[22:33] <kora-chan> IndyGunFreak: zsh: segmentation fault  sudo apt-get install -f
[22:33] <VCoolio> kora-chan: that will remove downloaded cache stuff from synaptic and may get it running again
[22:33] <Gho> kora-chan: you're usung zsh?  Do you have the same problem if you use bash?
[22:33] <kora-chan> VCoolio: thanks that helped
[22:34] <unop> ls, find /path/to/somewhere/ -type d -perm 777
[22:34] <kora-chan> VCoolio: apt works again
[22:34] <sima> ctartamella, #nvidia, #cuda
[22:34] <VCoolio> kora-chan: ok, good luck with it
[22:34] <clearscreen> I just installed virtualbox-2.2 but for some reason I can no longer execute it through the 'virtualbox' or 'virtualbox-2.2' command.. where did it go?
[22:34] <ctartamella> sima: thanks ill try over there.
[22:34] <kora-chan> IndyGunFreak: thanks too, the second attempt to install the gb help files worked
[22:35] <IndyGunFreak> kora-chan: good.

[22:37] <pm2> Hi - I'm on Kubuntu 9.04.  I recently bought a USB DVD drive, which forums say is compatible with Linux.  When I put a DVD in it, I get a pop-up saying that the DVD is in, and I choose to play it using Dragon Player.  However, when I hit play, the hard drive light comes on, and the computer freezes, though I can hear the HDD working and the DVD drive spinning up.
[22:37] <pm2> Any idea on how to fix this>
[22:37] <civpro> unop, no cuss words used man
[22:37] <civpro> freaking, god?
