[00:00] <K-19> Mark____ : Its always the hardware compatibility...
[00:00] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: :( are there any other better OS?
[00:00] <FriedrichMan> ActionParsnip: what's the curse of action I should take now?
[00:00] <wildbat_laptop> i am back ^^~
[00:00] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: some wireless issues will effect all distros,  others are distro specific
[00:00] <FriedrichMan> greezmunkey: .cfg ... sorry
[00:00] <ActionParsnip> gbmarc: well you need the IP of the printer and confiure a netowrk printer using that IP
[00:00] <kn100> Anyone know of a way to split an audio file into 5 minute sections?
[00:00] <michelle__> is it possible the new install stuck the boot loader on the wrong partition?
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | FriedrichMan
[00:01] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: whats distros?
[00:01] <Dark_Wolf> Does anyone know how to fix a botched grub with wubi on 10.04? I've only got a grub> prompt
[00:01] <sebsebseb> !distros | SlayerQuad93
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> kn100: mp3split
[00:01] <K-19> FriedrichMan : http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[00:01] <kn100> ActionParsnip, will try it
[00:01] <kn100> !info mp3split
[00:01] <Cynthia> kn100: open the file in Audacity, select from 0 to 5:00 min with the Edit or Select menu (?), File/Export Selection, then delete that part
[00:01] <gbmarc> ActionParsnip: allright i'll try that thanks
[00:01] <Cynthia> kn100: (+) repeat until the end of the file
[00:02] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: pluss loads of other ones, Mandriva is nice though, and what sometimes happens is,  a wireless didn't just work in Ubuntu, but does just work in that one
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> !info mp3splt
[00:02] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: if you have tried native  wireless driver, and ndiswrapper
[00:02] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: and make sure you done it properly and still got issues well
[00:02] <kn100> Cynthia, the file is almost 14 hours long
[00:02] <Cynthia> then ActionParsnip (ubottu)'s suggestion is better
[00:02] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: i never used ndiswrapper before and i dont know how
[00:03] <Valkyrie> Alright
[00:03] <Valkyrie> I heard that Ubu 10.04 has support for the iPod touch?
[00:03] <ActionParsnip> theres also: mp3splt-gtk  which is a gui
[00:04] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: Ndiswrapper allows you to use the .inf file from the WIndows driver and  get that working, but that won't always work as far as I know
[00:05] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: also using a Windows driver in a Linux distro, should be a last resort really,  when native won't work at all
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> Valkyrie: try gtkpod
[00:05] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: ok, whats the best distro i can use with wireless?
[00:05] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: there may not be one
[00:05] <Valkyrie> ActionParsnip: I have it, and the fuse modules. as well as gnupod.
[00:05] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: depends on what wireless you have
[00:05] <Valkyrie> Am I supposed to see something, other than 'Music Library' and 'Podcasts'
[00:05] <ActionParsnip> Valkyrie: thats all i know, i think ipod sucks
[00:06] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: i have dell wireless 1935 on a dell inspiron 1525
[00:06] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: I suggested something else earlier, go a head get a Live CD for that if you want,  but it might not just work on that either.  However if that's the case then at least you know your issue isn't distro specific.
[00:07] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: or find out about Ndiswrapper
[00:07] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: and try that
[00:07] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb:ok
[00:07] <lynx454> hi
[00:07] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: or  try this channel later on or the forums, and someone may be able to help you to get it working natively in Ubuntu
[00:07] <lynx454> i started to tweak my ubuntu in order to save energy
[00:07] <sebsebseb> !forums | SlayerQuad93
[00:07] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: thanks for your time and help
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> lynx454: lxde will do that :)
[00:08] <lynx454> will it also save energy when i use the onboard graphics instead of a pci express graphics card(passiv cooled) ?
[00:08] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: Don't just go back to Windows though, if you can't get it working in Ubuntu,  try another distro first and I already recommended one.
[00:08] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: ok no problem, good luck
[00:08] <ActionParsnip> lynx454: you'll  have to look at which chip uses less juice
[00:08] <lynx454> ActionParsnip: yeah lxde is qreally nice
[00:09] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: mandriva was the one you recommended?
[00:09] <ActionParsnip> lynx454: i think so too :)
[00:09] <lynx454> so you can'
[00:09] <greezmunkey> FriedrichMan: you still there?
[00:09] <sebsebseb> SlayerQuad93: yes, if you can't get it working in Ubuntu,  however if it doesn't just work there,  there will be the same or very similar issue to Ubuntu
[00:09] <banished> Hi, is there some ppa with the latest cdrtools?
[00:10] <lynx454> so you can't generally say onboard uses less energy?
[00:10] <SlayerQuad93> sebsebseb: ok, thanks
[00:10] <dan_> hello ppl
[00:10] <bobbytek2> I basically want something like xmonad, without all the setup hastle
[00:11] <jrib> bobbytek2: umm, bluetile?
[00:11] <bobbytek2> jrib: I will take a look
[00:11] <bobbytek2> thanks :)
[00:11] <jrib> bobbytek2: http://www.bluetile.org/ (it's exactly what you said :))
[00:12] <dan_> does sudo in command line give root access
[00:12] <z3r0-c001> if my linux ever got a virus LOL how would one go about destroying it
[00:12] <sebsebseb> !virus | z3r0-c001
[00:12] <mickster04> z3r0-c001: it wont
[00:12] <sebsebseb> !sudo | dan_
[00:12] <sebsebseb> dan_: yes, but only for the task you are doing
[00:12] <z3r0-c001> lol hypotheticly
[00:12] <mickster04> !root | dan_:
[00:13] <greezmunkey> z3r0-c001: about the closest you could get is to get one within a virtualbox windows install. That *is* possible.
[00:14] <DoMyNiKe> salve a tutti
[00:16] <greezmunkey> lo
[00:16] <g0tcha> hi.. in 10.04, how can i change the root passwd but not the main user?
[00:16] <archetype> hi
[00:17] <g0tcha> cuz while installing, it uses the same passwd for both
[00:17] <a3ist> hey guys I am using imwheel to set up hotkeys for the extra functions on my mouse, but when I lock the screen and come back later, the process always loses its tty.  Is there a way to reclaim it?  Or hook a script to the event of unlocking the screen where i could kill/restart it?
[00:18] <mawst> IS there like a sun java ppa or something
[00:18] <K-19> g0tcha : main user (Administrator) ???
[00:18] <jrib> a3ist: don't know, but I can tell you xbindkeys works fine.  imwheel lets you have application-specific binds, but if you aren't doing that then xbindkeys should be fine
[00:18] <jrib> mawst: it's in canonical's partner repository
[00:18] <g0tcha> K-19, yes
[00:18] <a3ist> jrib:  Thanks, I'll check it out
[00:19] <Glacer> where do I go at to see all my connected hardware
[00:19] <Glacer> I put tv tuner card in
[00:19] <jrib> Glacer: lshw  ?
[00:19] <a3ist> or lspci
[00:19] <onetinsoldier> Glacer: try lshw or lshw-gtk... you need to run them as root(sudo)
[00:19] <mawst> Thanks jrib
[00:20] <Glacer> thanks
[00:20] <a3ist> Glacer, jrib, onetinsoldier isn't lspci the right one for PCI devices like an addon card?
[00:20] <K-19> g0tcha : Administrator is the root, sir
[00:20] <jrib> a3ist: lshw will just give you more info, either is fine for what you ask
[00:20] <onetinsoldier> a3ist: sure. lshw will work too
[00:20] <a3ist> ah gotcha
[00:21] <IdleOne> a3ist: you can also install hardinfo if you prefer a GUI
[00:21] <g0tcha> K-19, hmm when you install 10.04, you create the "first user" .. the root password is set the same as the "first user" password
[00:21] <onetinsoldier> or.. lshw-gtk
[00:21] <g0tcha> got what i mean?
[00:21] <a3ist> I'm fine without gui, was just asking for the sake of knowing
[00:21] <a3ist> I'm installing arch on my laptop right now :)
[00:22] <K-19> g0tcha : You want to change the "first user" Password..that's it?
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> a3ist: you can use the -C swich in lshw to get the data you need
[00:22] <datta> gwibber does not seem to open up in ubuntu 10.04
[00:22] <g0tcha> K-19, no, the root password
[00:22] <datta> has anyone else been facing that problem?
[00:22] <IdleOne> !root | g0tcha
[00:23] <a3ist> ActionParsnip, it was someone else that was asking; I was just clarifying since I thought lspci would do it fine for him (he was tryin to find his video tuner card I think)
[00:23] <g0tcha> IdleOne, so cant have a different password for sudo and for the "first user" ?
[00:23] <benja> hablan español?
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> a3ist: try: sudo lshw -C display
[00:24] <jrib> g0tcha: why do you want to?
[00:24] <a3ist> !es | benja
[00:24] <IdleOne> g0tcha: I am not sure what you mean by first user but if you mean the user you setup when you installed that is the user that has sudo privs
[00:24] <g0tcha> jrib, why not?
[00:24] <jrib> g0tcha: because there's no reason to.
[00:25]  * jrib rests his case
[00:25] <datta> two of the most important stuff in my system does not open, they are gwibber and ubuntu one
[00:25] <g0tcha> previous versions of ubuntu was like that
[00:25] <sontek> If my icons got all screwed up (the system tray ones like clock, empathy, wifi, etc), is there a way to set their order back to default?
[00:25] <jrib> g0tcha: no, they were never like that...
[00:25] <g0tcha> the user i setup on install has a passwod and when i sudo it has a different password
[00:25] <g0tcha> hmm
[00:25] <onetinsoldier> !panel | sontek
[00:25] <onetinsoldier> !panels | sontek
[00:25] <jrib> g0tcha: that's never been default behavior
[00:26] <jrib> g0tcha: I'm asking why you want to do this, because it seems like you want to make things harder for some reason and I don't understand why
[00:26] <sontek> onetinsoldier: perfect
[00:26] <sontek> thanks
[00:26] <onetinsoldier> sontek: cheers :-)
[00:26] <g0tcha> jrib, being cautious.. i dont know..
[00:26] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: then boot to root recovery console and run: passwd foo     assuming foo is your usual username
[00:27] <onetinsoldier> sontek: you're welcome. good luck
[00:27] <jrib> g0tcha: cautious of what?
[00:28] <K-19> g0tcha : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[00:28] <g0tcha> jrib, just to have 2 different passwords if one of them is known heheh i dont see whats the problem in that
[00:28] <g0tcha> or why youre making it sound like im doing something weird
[00:28] <playboi> Woah hey
[00:28] <playboi> didn't think this actually worked
[00:29] <IdleOne> g0tcha: having more then one password that has sudo privs is imho not cautious
[00:29] <Glacer> is free TV streaming from movielush.com good place? I seen it come up in top results of search engine and was free
[00:29] <Glacer> for streaming
[00:29] <g0tcha> IdleOne, what makes you say that? just curious
[00:29] <IdleOne> g0tcha: less people who can make changes to the system the better
[00:29] <jrib> g0tcha: there's no problem really, just no point
[00:30] <neon__> can the latest ati drivers 10.4 be install without messing my installation of lucid?
[00:30] <IdleOne> g0tcha: as for having a root password. it is not supported and when you break your system ( and you probably will ) we can't help you
[00:30] <playboi> Hey is there a working Gizmo5 client for Ubuntu 10.04 out there? LOL
[00:30] <a3ist> jrib:  With xbindkeys, where do you find the right identifiers for inputs?  I don't see keysym.h or keysymdef.h anywhere
[00:30] <g0tcha> IdleOne, im not planning to give away access to other ppl.. im just saying if the installed user password got discovered, by any means, it wont be the same password to sudo with
[00:30] <g0tcha> thats all
[00:31] <jrib> a3ist: xbindkeys -k is the easy way
[00:31] <petester> hey
[00:31] <IdleOne> g0tcha: ok, I guess I am not understanding what you want to do. someone else is probably better suited to help you
[00:32] <Daekdroom> g0tcha, that doesn't make much sense, honestly.
[00:32] <datta> why is ubuntuone not opening in the system?
[00:32] <petester> i'm trying to install ubuntu desktop on a pretty old machine, and the installation app has frozen at 5%
[00:32] <Daekdroom> g0tcha, it looks like you want one user account, and then this other one that'll do nothing but use sudo.
[00:32] <petester> how can i terminate the process and start again?
[00:32] <a3ist> jrib, doesn't seem to pick up my extra mouse functionality :-/
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: just add the user you want to have sudo access to the admin group
[00:32] <g0tcha> no
[00:32] <datta> ubuntuone's not even showing in the internet menu
[00:32] <g0tcha> i want when i sudo and asks for the password, it doesnt use the same password of the installed user account
[00:33] <jrib> a3ist: does xev see them?
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: what password does it use?
[00:33] <neon__> can the latest ati drivers 10.4 be install without messing my installation of lucid?
[00:34] <alexs> Does HDMI audio work on Ubuntu?
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> datta: theres an indicator applet which plugs into ubuntuone
[00:34] <thedude42> ok, VirtualBox problem solved
[00:34] <g0tcha> ActionParsnip, the first install user password
[00:34] <alexs> I'm using an ION system.
[00:34] <IdleOne> g0tcha: so the same user has 1 password to login and a different pass for sudo actions?
[00:34] <thedude42> it looks like some people may need a bios update
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> alexs: it can but ive seen it to be a pain
[00:34] <alexs> aplay -L shows my devices
[00:34] <datta> ActionParsnip: well there is none for me
[00:34] <a3ist> jrib, hard to tell but I don't think so.  Not all that familiar with xev
[00:34] <g0tcha> ActionParsnip, when i first installed ubuntu, i chose the username g0tcha for example and gave it the password test123
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> g0tcha: and are you loggin on as the first created user?
[00:34] <a3ist> jrib:  nm, got it via xev
[00:34] <g0tcha> when i want to sudo from that user, the sudo password is test123
[00:34] <alexs> ActionParsnip: analog works, all my devices show up in alsa :-/
[00:34] <datta> ActionParsnip: I have reinstalled ubuntuone and still it's not showing up
[00:34] <alexs> but no sound
[00:34] <g0tcha> the same password.. and i just want it to be different
[00:34] <neon__> hdmi audio worked fine for me under 9.10 not on lucid
[00:34] <alexs> i also cant see any way to select the output format
[00:34] <jrib> g0tcha: that's not what sudo does.  Sudo asks for the password of the user invoking it.  So if you create a second user and add him to the admin group, when he sudos, he needs to enter his password
[00:34] <K-19> datta : System-Preference.
[00:35] <alexs> urgh
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> datta: use ubuntuone-client-gnome
[00:35] <alexs> HDMI audio on IONs was workin in ALSA .18 :-/
[00:35] <jrib> a3ist: fwiw, I just use for example "b:4" for my mouse buttons even though xbindkeys -k shows me something more complicated looking
[00:35] <datta> K-19: I have clicked it for several times and still it does not open
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> datta: i believe nautilus has some ubuntuone functionality on the right click menu
[00:35] <IdleOne> jrib: if I get what he is trying to do is have a pass for login and a pass for sudo privs on the same user
[00:35] <thedude42> jrib, g0tcha correction: by default sudo asks for a password
[00:36] <michelle__> question for all... I am looking for FREE on-line resources that teach linux basics and admin
[00:36] <jrib> michelle__: help.ubuntu.com and:
[00:36] <jrib> !manual | michelle__
[00:36] <a3ist> jrib:  so "b:4" would correspond to "Button 4" in xev?
[00:36] <jrib> a3ist: I believe so
[00:36] <sebsebseb> michelle__: Ubuntu Pocket Guide is also good
[00:37] <neon__> so no ones know if the ati drivers 10.4 can be install on lucid?
[00:37] <IdleOne> michelle__: you might also want to ask in #ubuntu-learning
[00:37] <a3ist> jrib:  I'll give it a shot and let you know how it works
[00:37] <bobbytek2> (✿◠‿◠) ° (◕‿◕✿)
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> neon__: try it
[00:37] <michelle__> lol i am a 15 year IT veteran of other OS's... i need to learn the system internals, and command line basics of linux, and about system administration
[00:37] <neon__> i don't want to mess my set up
[00:38] <neon__> is not as easy to revert
[00:38] <bastid_raZor> !cli | michelle__
[00:38] <Typos_King> a 15year old veteran? how a 15year can be veteran at anything?
[00:38] <Typos_King> hehehe
[00:38] <thedude42> michelle__, there's a ton of stuff online for that
[00:38] <sebsebseb> michelle__: well in that case really you need to learn more than one distro as well I guess
[00:38] <IdleOne> michelle__: #ubuntu-learning has what you are looking for I believe
[00:38] <sebsebseb> michelle__: http://www.ditrowatch.com
[00:39] <K-19> datta : Are you using a proxy connection.
[00:39] <sebsebseb> michelle__: typo  http://www.distrowatch.com
[00:39] <IdleOne> Typos_King: 15 year veteran not a 15 year old veteran
[00:39] <datta> K-19: no proxy, the program does not even open
[00:39] <franc> .
[00:39] <Typos_King> hehe, I see
[00:40] <maco> michelle__: by the way, you may find #ubuntu-women a friendly place
[00:40] <a3ist> jrib:  one last question...is there a way to bind a key to act as a different key, or can they only launch commands
[00:40] <datta> I think it is the same problem that causes gwibber not to open
[00:40] <neon__> ne1 able to play blu-ray under ubuntu?
[00:40] <jrib> a3ist: both :).  Here's an example of what I mean: "/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Control_L]\[Page_Up]" &"
[00:40] <jrib> a3ist: note xvkbd is not installed by default
[00:40] <K-19> datta : Try Re-installing it.
[00:41] <Typos_King> michelle__:   http://citrin.ru/docs/Unix/    there are a few good books there :), there's one for bash shell as well
[00:41] <datta> K-19: have just done that
[00:41] <i3luefire> i am having difficulty getting a game to work. it is urban terror & im using lucid
[00:42] <BlAck6j73> michelle_       if you want to learn linux  you will learn more using linux IMHO
[00:42] <BlAck6j73> michelle_       if you want to learn linux  you will learn more using debian* linux IMHO
[00:42] <neurohack222> is there a good channel to talk about possibly quieting a noisy pc?  seems the hardware channel is invite only
[00:42] <jrib> !register | neurohack222
[00:42] <jrib> neurohack222: ##hardware is the place
[00:43] <michelle__> I'll bite... why Debian?
[00:43] <Typos_King> quieting a noisy pc?  hehe
[00:43] <thedude42> BlAck6j73, in that same vein, probably would learn more with LFS
[00:43] <Typos_King> neurohack222:    depends I guess, you can give a shot here maybe :), just a quick shot
[00:43] <BlAck6j73> LFS is too much for a beginner!
[00:43] <i3luefire> slackware. lol
[00:43] <thedude42> michelle__, because Debian doesn't provide as many out-of-the-box features as something like Ubuntu or Fedora
[00:43] <K-19> datta : https://login.ubuntu.com/Q1KSfHB6tVJ3fxd5/+decide
[00:44] <sebsebseb> michelle__: if you want to learn Linux you would learn more using Gentoo or Slackware or ArchLinux or something like that :D  however those are not easy to learn.  Ubuntu is based on Debian,  Debian is one of the first Linux distros goes back to 1993.  Oh and Slackware goes back to then as well, and is the oldest distro that is still being updated after all the time.
[00:44] <BlAck6j73> michelle_       Ubuntu is heavly customised by canocial for users
[00:44] <WXZ> what does installing a binary do, does it create like a second instance of the application?
[00:44] <sebsebseb> !debian | michelle__
[00:45] <neon__> ne1 able to play blu-ray under ubuntu?
[00:45] <Typos_King> WXZ:   what?
[00:45] <WXZ> I'm trying to run two instances of the same application Typos_King
[00:45] <thedude42> michelle__, ubuntu server is a good place to start because you get an actively supported environment, but you don't run in to all the X environment issues people can sometimes run in to that has more to do with Ubuntu's stuff than the base debian stuff
[00:45] <Typos_King> neon__:   not having a blu-ray dvd myself, can't say
[00:45] <neurohack222> well, it's pretty loud, running a pc w/ maybe a 650w corsair PSU, a q6600 w/ a zalman heatsink/fan w/ fanmate at lowest setting... a gtx 260 (really don't game anymore so maybe should go low profile?)  it's a gaming case w/ a bunch of fans but i don't think they're making too much noise
[00:45] <WXZ> someone suggested installing a binary
[00:46] <Typos_King> WXZ:     it may,or may not allow you to, which app?
[00:46] <andre_francys> install ldap with file slapd.conf when ???? not this online configurations
[00:46] <neurohack222> honestly i don't want to spend a bunch of money getting allegedly "quiet" stuff and still have it drive me nuts lol
[00:46] <WXZ> tomboy
[00:46] <akgerber> so: i put xubuntu on an eee 901 via usb stick but cannot get it to connect to a wpa network. internet suggests to use a different driver:

[00:46] <neon__> Typos_King: :)
[00:46] <WXZ> Typos_King: tomboy
[00:47] <akgerber> however, the eee cannot get wireless. is there any way to get the build-essential and linux-headers packages off the usb installation?
[00:47] <WXZ> Typos_King: and pidgin if that one works out
[00:47] <neurohack222> just want some advice, should i buy something like quiet and energy efficient like a mac mini or attempt to put money into quieting this thing up
[00:47] <Typos_King> WXZ:     .... can't say, I'd think since it's a so-called TSR, or memory-resident note-taking app, usually loaded in the tray, it may not allow you to
[00:47] <ARandomNub> Hi =). Is there a specific port that needs to be open on my router for Remote Desktop?
[00:47] <WXZ> :O... :(
[00:48] <Typos_King> WXZ:     need to run it twice? what's wrong with once?
[00:48] <sebsebseb> michelle__: Ubuntu isn't really a geeks distro,   that's what BlAck6j73  meant.  Ubuntu never really was for geeks though, and its becoming even less so now, because they want to target the mainstreame Windows and Mac OS X users.  However computer geeks use it as well.
[00:48] <WXZ> too many notes, need to seperate them by category
[00:48] <WXZ> and not just by putting them in notebooks
[00:48] <franc> ARandomNub: http://www.howtoforge.com/configure-remote-access-to-your-ubuntu-desktop
[00:48] <ARandomNub> Thank you, Franc. :)
[00:48] <Typos_King> WXZ:     sounds to me you don't have a runtime issue, just a categorizing issue :P
[00:48] <WXZ> yes
[00:48] <WXZ> Typos_King: still an issue though
[00:49] <purpley> Hey is there a flash player for 64 bit users?
[00:49] <IdleOne> if Ubuntu isn't for geeks who is doing all the coding for it?
[00:49] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: I said geeks use it as well :)
[00:49] <SmartViking> Hi, i just installed ubuntu 10 on my e5400 and i can use my keyboard, but i can not click with my mouse, at once i open a program, i cant click the mouse anymore
[00:49] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: and I meant users,  not developers
[00:49] <linxeh> Sound on my box appears to be using the HDMI output rather than the analogue jacks - is there a way to change this (its a core2/Gigabyte 9400M board) ?
[00:49] <wildbat> question : how do i get out of ssh if the connection got interrupted, the ssh just hang there ....
[00:49] <IdleOne> Windows isn't for geeks either but takes a lot of them to make it
[00:49] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: altough sure the developers will also use it
[00:49] <brah-> the average user is what makes ubuntu what it is, without them itd just be another unknown distro
[00:50] <brah-> among the 200+ existing 1's
[00:50] <Typos_King> WXZ:     well, yeah, doesn't mean a 2nd runtime will fix though, apps provide the tools to work with, they won't make you organized unless you apply yourself :|
[00:50] <IdleOne> my point is that the statement that Ubuntu isn't for geeks is wrong
[00:50] <brah-> unknown outside the nix community
[00:50] <maco> purpley: yes, only on linux :)
[00:50] <SmartViking> Hi, i just installed ubuntu 10 on my e5400 and i can use my keyboard, but i can not click with my mouse, at once i open a program, i cant click the mouse anymore
[00:50] <WXZ> Typos_King: not enough tools, tomboy allows notebooks.. not really what I'm looking for, and they stopped developing it I think
[00:51] <purpley> maco, Im talking about adobe flash player and if so where?
[00:51] <Typos_King> WXZ:     maybe you need... a different note-taking app, who knows, hell, I use knotes and I don't have as many
[00:51] <BlAck6j73> purley:    find instructions here for 64bit     http://www.blogsdna.com/
[00:51] <maco> purpley: i think you still need to go to adobe's website and download it
[00:51] <sebsebseb> IdleOne: Gentoo,  Slackware, ArchLinux, those kind of distros are the true geeks distros,  since they aren't that easy to use.  Where as Ubuntu,  Mandriva, PC Linux OS, OpenSuse, and so on, are for anyone that wants to use it, including mainstream computer users, who don't know that much about computers.
[00:51] <WXZ> yeah, there's one called g-note, I guess I'll have two
[00:51] <jrib> BlAck6j73: please don't do that
[00:51] <BlAck6j73> ?
[00:51] <webroasters> hey guys, quick SKYPE question: Why does it keep dropping the sound a lot when I'm talking over Skype to someone else? It works fine in Windows
[00:51] <maco> michelle__: you can definitely learn to use linux on ubuntu. at some point you'll want to try some others because they all do things slightly differently, but not-knowing ubuntu's way is no better than not-knowing fedora's
[00:52] <Valenza> anyone here do a fresh install of ubuntu studio 10.04..... I'm having major internet issues with it
[00:52] <purpley> maco: I looked there and only saw 32bit thats why im asking here
[00:52] <jrib> BlAck6j73: link to official documentation, using the bot if you want a quick way (!flash).  Not some random blogsearch page with no mention of flash when you visit it please :)
[00:52] <ARandomNub> It's a shame there's no Linux version of Spotify! =( Such a beast program.
[00:53] <neurohack222> thx for info on registering nickname btw
[00:53] <sebsebseb> ARandomNub: indeed, but a lot of people run it well in Wine
[00:53] <webroasters> hey guys, quick SKYPE question: Why does it keep dropping the sound a lot when I'm talking over Skype to someone else? It works fine in Windows
[00:53] <ARandomNub> sebsebseb: Apparently so, I'm just running the guide now..
[00:53] <Typos_King> WXZ:     what about something like basKet -> http://ubuntu.ly/images/tutorials/2009/basket-note-pads.png
[00:53] <BlAck6j73> if it didnt link to it I wouldnt have pasted it :P
[00:53] <ARandomNub> *running through
[00:53] <kitypawn> I know this is not ubuntu-specific, but what is a good dektop ql manager
[00:53] <michelle__> cool.. thx... so, from an enterprise server environment standpoint, which distro would u recommend i get familliar with first?
[00:53] <kitypawn> *sql
[00:54] <SmartViking> I have a latitude e5400 and i installed ubuntu on it, but my mouse acts weird. Is that maybe because i have no admin rights in BIOS? i just plugged out the bios battery and i could somehow install it
[00:54] <kitypawn> i dislike php my admin, i want something dsktop ased
[00:54] <michelle__> Audio:     Card Intel 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller driver Intel ICH at ports 1c00 18c0

[00:54] <CT1> Hi.  I have a .dmg file.  How can I burn that to a bootable dvd? Please point me to some "how-to"
[00:54] <maco> ARandomNub: and apparently it was written to work well with wine too O_O (actually, google released a version of picasa specially made to work with wine and called that a linux port so...)
[00:54] <PeterDrop> where i can find (repository) sun-java4-jdk pakage?
[00:54] <WXZ> Typos_King: 'tis possible, but I like customizing things so :p
[00:54] <PeterDrop> where i can find (repository) sun-java5-jdk pakage?
[00:54] <Pici> !partner | PeterDrop
[00:54] <ARandomNub> The file 'Spotify Installer.exe' is not marked as executable. FML
[00:54] <Typos_King> WXZ:     basKet allows customizing :P~
[00:54] <maco> michelle__: enterprise? probably red hat enterprise, which you can learn from using centos (free instead of paying for rhel)
[00:55] <thedude42> SmartViking, no such animal as permissions to bios... if you need permision to do something in linux it generally tells you
[00:55] <maco> michelle__: debian is also very popular on servers and ubuntu is getting there (all of wikipedia runs on ubuntu servers)
[00:55] <Pici> PeterDrop: sun java is now in the partner repositories as of Lucid.
[00:55] <WXZ> Typos_King: I'll check it out
[00:55] <PeterDrop> txs Pici
[00:55] <Valenza> if anyone here knows what to do when nm-system-settings.conf cannot be found? I did a fresh install and have looked everywhere....
[00:55] <ARandomNub> Can anyone tell me the update wine command, please? =D
[00:55] <maco> michelle__: ubuntu and debian are very similar, so really if you just know red hat's way of doing things and debian's you're in a good spot
[00:55] <WXZ> bbl
[00:56] <maco> michelle__: and by the way, this might help: http://www.slideshare.net/macoafi/sysadmins-rosetta-stone
[00:56] <michelle__> cool.. thx maco
[00:56] <thedude42> Valenza, try /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
[00:56] <Valenza> I did... says files cannot be found
[00:56] <Typos_King> Valenza:   when do you get that?
[00:56] <Valenza> NetworkManager file isn't there either
[00:57] <Valenza> I just did a fresh install yesterday of ubuntu studio 10.04.... couldn't connect and spent the last 3 hrs searching online
[00:57] <thedude42> Valenza, see what dpkg -l network-manager gets you
[00:57] <Valenza> k
[00:57] <maco> michelle__: ubuntu varies from the others in using Upstart instead of standard SysV init scripts. fedora also does this and i think debian is adopting it soonish, but stable debian and centos releases dont have it yet
[00:57] <BlAck6j73> purley:    http://www.blogsdna.com/4211/download-install-flash-player-10-alpha-for-linux-64-bit.htm
[00:58] <sebsebseb> michelle__:  Novell Suse Enterprise Linux is also pretty popular at the moment,  and OpenSuse on the desktop.  However Novell aren't liked much at all these days, by quite a lot of people in the Linux community,  however thats also quite off topic for this channel.
[00:59] <ARandomNub> gah
[00:59] <Valenza> no packages found
[00:59] <ARandomNub> Why can I not open Spotify Installer through wine? :(
[00:59] <thedude42> Valenza, so now you need to do 'sudo apt-get install network-manager'
[00:59] <Valenza> why would a fresh install not install the packages...?
[00:59] <michelle__> I worked for Novell for 10 years
[00:59] <sebsebseb> michelle__: Ubuntu will do as a first distro to learn,  then you will want to learn  stuff like  Debian, CentOS, and Fedora I expect, and then more complex distros such as Gentoo, Slackware, and ArchLinux maybe even.
[00:59] <oodavid> Anyone know how to mount multiple folders to FTP?
[01:00] <sebsebseb> michelle__: oh
[01:00] <Valenza> lol.. will it work without internet connection?
[01:00] <sebsebseb> michelle__: I meant since the patents deal with Microsoft and Mono.  not sure if you know what I mean
[01:00] <Typos_King> michelle__:    that's what you get for asking a general distro question, best is relative, if you just want to get hands on linux dealing, pretty much any distribution will do really, many will point to ubuntu due to simpleness automated setups, or more or less for newbies
[01:00] <thedude42> Valenza, you don't need network manager to connect to a network, but if you don't have a network interface that's probably why it didn't get installed
[01:00] <CT1> I need one of 2 things, either 1: To resolve getting a black screen when login to ubuntu, or 2:  to burn a dmg file to a bootable dvd.  It's a macbook 2.1.  Hard disk ruined and need either (preferably) ubuntu working, or a way to burn the dmg file to boot and install os x.  Please help
[01:01] <michelle__> yea... I have messed with SUSE some... but last I saw they were doing more to turn it into bloatware
[01:01] <sebsebseb> michelle__: enteprise one or OpenSuse or both?
[01:01] <Typos_King> CT1:  if the HD is hosed, how do you plan to install either? :)
[01:02] <a3ist> michelle__, I haven't been paying that much attention to the conversation, but if you're really lookin to build from the ground up and aren't averse to the command line, I'm experimenting with arch linux to interesting effect.
[01:02] <darkfrog> hey guys, I shut down my machine for a week and turned it back on and now I'm getting terrible network performance....I plugged in a 10/100 USB network card and that gets great performance but my gigabit on-board NIC is getting transfer rates of like 15.6 on iperf
[01:02] <darkfrog> anyone have any suggestions to fix this?
[01:02] <michelle__> mostly desktop... open one....  but they seem to be dropping market share fast
[01:02] <CT1> Typos_King: Replaced it with a new one (with os x absent ofc, and destroyed apple optical media) :)
[01:02] <michelle__> and ubuntu seems to be gaining it fast
[01:03] <sebsebseb> michelle__: indeed, however
[01:03] <sebsebseb> michelle__: according to history so far,  distro's only get like five years or so as number one on the desktop
[01:03] <thedude42> michelle__, most enterprise customers go with RedHat, so consider that as well
[01:03] <sebsebseb> michelle__: however I think Ubuntu will have quite a few more years as number one on the desktop
[01:03] <Valenza> sorry but a bit confused here... I normally connect via wireless... Had ubuntu 9 and worked fine but decided to do a fresh install this time around.
[01:03] <Valenza> ran lshw -C Network
[01:04] <Valenza> both lan and wlan come up as disabled
[01:04] <Typos_King> CT1:  not sure on 10.04, but with the 9.1 live-cd, you can make a 'startup usb', with which you can do a live-usb boot, which should allow  you to burn the .dmg image to the dvd disc in the dvd burner :)
[01:04] <thedude42> Valenza, they show up, but show as disabled?
[01:04] <devinsba> can anyone tell me where the ubuntuone add machine button is?
[01:04] <Valenza> yep
[01:04] <ARandomNub> Question: Will uTorrent on Wine work BETTER than say.. Transmission Bittorrent Client?
[01:05] <sebsebseb> michelle__: Redhat Enterprise Linux is for businesses and as maco mentioned earlier theres CentOS if your wanting to learn Redhat
[01:05] <acicula> BETTER in what sense?
[01:05] <thedude42> Valenza, look through dmesg
[01:05] <ARandomNub> Will it... work? xD
[01:05] <acicula> probably
[01:05] <ARandomNub> I try to stick with what I'm familiar with;
[01:05] <ARandomNub> and I've been using uTorrent for what seems like forever =p
[01:05] <CT1> I have another machine, how do I burn a dmg file from ubuntu? Ideally I'd like ubuntu on the macbook single boot, but no luck so far.  at the very least I'd like os x on it.
[01:06] <Typos_King> ARandomNub:    hardly doubt it, I've used it in win32, it's just an IE-UI based app, not really that great
[01:06] <sebsebseb> ARandomNub: uTorrent works well in Wine, but better to use a native Linux torrents program :)
[01:06] <Valenza> anything in particular I should be looking for?
[01:06] <Valenza> a lot fo info here
[01:06] <acicula> Valenza, disabled there does not mean the device doesnt work, its just not on, ie an ethenet card without a cable will say disabled
[01:06] <thedude42> ARandomNub, transmission is really good
[01:06] <ARandomNub> sebsebseb: I see, well that's fine because I can't even use any .exe's through wine, they all fail -_-
[01:07] <acicula> ARandomNub, have a look at winehq
[01:07] <ARandomNub> The file 'utorrent.exe' is not marked as executable.
[01:07] <ARandomNub> =_=
[01:07] <onetinsoldier> lol
[01:07] <Typos_King> CT1:  I'd think the burning app in the live-boot will do the .dmg, isn't it just an image?
[01:07] <thedude42> Valenza, in dmesg you'll see all thehardware gettinhg detected, so there may be something in there.... what does ifconfig show you?
[01:07] <onetinsoldier> ARandomNub: chmod +x <file.exe>
[01:08] <a3ist> jrib, I keep getting errors with different permutations of using xvkbd; they all result in "xvkbd: Mode_switch not available as a modifier; xvkbd: although ISO_Level3_Shift is used instead, AltGr may not work correctly"
[01:08] <kbar> musturd,
[01:08] <kbar> pm me
[01:08] <CT1> Typos_King: some "mental" mac format.  I've converted it to an img with dmg2img.  Can I burn that (bootable)?
[01:09] <Typos_King> CT1:   sure
[01:09] <ARandomNub> onetinsoldier: Can I Pm you a second please? =D
[01:09] <onetinsoldier> ARandomNub: ok, sure
[01:09] <Valenza> ifconfig lo link encap: local loopback
[01:10] <Valenza> a few other things then.... RX packets:184 errors:0
[01:10] <greezmunkey> I just plugged in a logitech usb headset, sound and mic works, but very quiet. Is there a way to increase the volume? (I installed the pulseaudio tools, but have the sliders maxed) Am I out of luck?
[01:10] <Valenza> thedude42: sorry but I'm using a different comp so I can't paste it
[01:11] <samd> hi, i installed a package via "apt-get" and it ends the process with a segmentation fault (http://paste.ubuntu.com/436491/), is this a normal behavior?
[01:11] <CT1> Typos_King: Does Brasero "see" img files?
[01:12] <mant1s> "You must have OpenLDAP client commands installed before running these scripts" <--- anyone setup ldap and run into this message?
[01:12] <mant1s> ubuntu 10.04
[01:12] <Typos_King> CT1:   I think so, I use k3b, but I don't think that should be an issue, worse case scenario, you can always use 'dd'
[01:12] <greezmunkey> samd: maybe that's why they call it the "bad" repository
[01:12] <Typos_King> CT1:   'dd' uses whatever
[01:13] <samd> greezmunkey: what you mean bad repo?
[01:13] <greezmunkey> samd: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse
[01:14] <samd> greezmunkey: oh i see, but it has happened to me with other packages too
[01:15] <Typos_King> samd:     I think I've seen a couple of those, it may just be a .deb script deal, doesn't mean the installation didn't go through well
[01:15] <greezmunkey> samd: what happens with: sudo apt-get update -?
[01:15] <CT1> Typos_King: Far too complex for me.  I just wanted a working laptop. and before the hdd went all "free style percussion" on me I had both os x and ubuntu(mainly) working fine.  Now nothing : (
[01:15] <Typos_King> CT1:   so, use Brassero to burn it then :)
[01:15] <bollullera> hola!
[01:16] <Typos_King> !es | bollullera
[01:16] <Scunizi> My machine has a functional sound card and audio is fine.  I've added an external usb audio adapter that is recognized and I can record from that input but I can't monitor that input through the speakers.. how do I make that happen? It's not muted.
[01:16] <krabador> how can i remove something installed later a source compilation?
[01:16] <samd> greezmunkey: it appears to go well, although it says something about duplicate sources.list entry, let me check on that
[01:16] <CT1> Typos_King: I'll try it.  Thanks for your support.
[01:16] <bollullera> ubottu, thanks ^.^
[01:16] <samd> Typos_King: alright, should i just ignore it? or file a bug?
[01:16] <greezmunkey> samd: yeah, maybe a bit of routine maintenance is needed...
[01:16] <sebsebseb> !thanks | bollullera
[01:18] <samd> greezmunkey: ight, its not throwing those duplicate messages anymore, thanks
[01:18] <Typos_King> samd:  not a file bug, bear in mind that, apt-get is just a front-end to fetch the files .deb and then pass it over to dpkg for installation, now, the fetching went well, then dpkg went ahead and installed it, based on the 'script' inside the .deb file as instructed, now, ,the error may just be some minor issue at the end of the script, but the installation seem to have gone fine
[01:19] <Valenza> thedude42: Found my wireless detection from dmesg. doesn't look like there are any errors. Does show me show right before displaying the info - /user/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action... which I find strange since I can't find that folder in the filesystem though I have it set to show hidden files
[01:19] <samd> Typos_King: alright, ill just leave it alone, thanks

[01:32] <Fudge> hi is it simple to synch iphones ipods on ubuntu? any special programs need to be installed? thankyou for any advice
[01:32] <Valenza> lol thats what I just did
[01:33] <CT1> Typos_King: "simple" is relative.  I'll be sure to read up on dd some day, when I cross the line of being an end-user (that occasionally helps a family friend with their computer) to being a serious technician.  Again though, thankyou :)
[01:33] <Typos_King> :)
[01:33] <ActionParsnip> !ipod
[01:34] <ActionParsnip> or just ditch the iphone and get a better phone
[01:34] <Valenza> which is why it said superuser.. both are disabled. and I can't find my nm-system-settings.conf file (search doesn't find it and terminal says /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf 'no such file')
[01:34] <felon> umm
[01:34] <fluvvell> IF my hardy 8.04.4 computer wont show the lts upgrade available in sources, is the only way to go to manually edit the sources.list file and upgrade that way?
[01:35] <Mrpeepers310> hey for some reason my nvidia driver will not enable for graphics
[01:35] <ActionParsnip> Valenza: i have files in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
[01:35] <Cynthia> fluvvell: sources.list would be the most straightforward alternative imo
[01:35] <Mrpeepers310> it tells me this when i start the nvidia x server settings manager "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server."
[01:35] <ActionParsnip> Valenza: they store the connections in plain text
[01:35] <Mrpeepers310> i did nvidia-xconfig and nothing happend
[01:36] <krabador> i installed totem-xine, but i can only run totem gstreamer, i don't find totem-xine anywhere
[01:36] <krabador> where is it?
[01:36] <fluvvell> Cynthia, so just add in all the lucid sources and cope with all the dpkg issues as they arise ?
[01:36] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | fluvvell
[01:36] <ActionParsnip> fluvvell: uprading any other way is not advised or supported
[01:36] <Valenza> does ect/networkmanager folder show up in your filesystem window?
[01:36] <fluvvell> ActionParsnip, thanks for that but all the automatic upgrade options fail FAIL/
[01:36] <Mrpeepers310> hey for some reason my nvidia driver will not enable for graphics. it tells me this when i start the nvidia x server settings manager "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." i did nvidia-xconfig and restarted x and nothing happend
[01:36] <Valenza> I have mine set to show hidden files as well... and there is no folder
[01:37] <fluvvell> thats why I'm asking.
[01:37] <ActionParsnip> fluvvell: there are commands to kickoff the upgrade, or you can use the alternate iso
[01:37] <edbian> Valenza, Only files starting with "." are hidden in linux
[01:37] <Valenza> well then there is no folder :(
[01:37] <fluvvell> ActionParsnip, the alternative iso might be my answer, good point I haven't tried that yet.
[01:37] <Valenza> fyi.. this is off of a fresh install too....
[01:37] <ActionParsnip> Valenza: try: cd /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
[01:37] <calibre> Does anyone know how to log the status box on xcha, i am using ubuntu.
[01:38] <calibre> xchat*
[01:38] <Valenza> no such file or directory
[01:39] <ActionParsnip> Valenza: then try: cd /etc/NetworkManager/
[01:39] <Valenza> same thing
[01:39] <alanis313> Hoe can I get my wireless connection to work. For some reason it comes on and off
[01:39] <Valenza> im in /etc/
[01:39] <Cynthia> calibre: logging should be enabled for the status window when you enable general logging - it's going to be FreeNode-status.log or NETWORK-status.log
[01:40] <ActionParsnip> Valenza: try lower case, thats how it is in my lucid install
[01:40] <krabador> how can i run totem xine?
[01:40] <Valenza> same thing im afraid
[01:41] <CkhiKuzad> is it possible to convert my GNOME's language from english to japanese (hiragana if possible) for pure aesthetic reasons?
[01:41] <alanis313> this is the output for dmesg http://www.pastebin.org/255960
[01:41] <telliott> Anyone having problems installing inside Windows 7 via Wubi?  I'm trying to install the newest version
[01:41] <Scunizi> My machine has a functional sound card and audio is fine.  I've added an external usb audio adapter that is recognized and I can record from that input but I can't monitor that input through the speakers.. how do I make that happen? It's not muted.
[01:42] <calibre> Cynthia: I don't see the NETWORK-status.log.
[01:42] <alanis313> Again my issue is with my wireless connection not working correctly
[01:42] <edbian> telliott, Many people here don't respect wubi very much.  Most of the trouble-shooting help you're going to receive is "install the real way!"  Having said that, I have no experience with your issue.
[01:43] <digifor> Why do some gnome icons show up in E17 on Ubuntu 10.04 and others are missing?
[01:43] <Valenza> just pulled iwconfig..... and says lo - no wireless extentions.... etho no wiresless extention (which I figured) and wlan0 IEEE  802.11abg ESSID: off/any
[01:43] <digifor> I installed as per this guy: http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/2010/05/howto-install-e17-from-svnsource-on.html
[01:43] <CT1> Typos_King: 3min for that img.  I'll keep you posted.  Hope it's not a ruined dvd+r dl.
[01:44] <Valenza> and access point: Not-Associated
[01:44] <Cynthia> calibre: try asking your question in #xchat :)
[01:44] <alanis313> wow this looks like is something bad #Error 2 opening /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat#
[01:44] <Typos_King> hehe
[01:45] <Typos_King> alanis313:  when do you get that?
[01:45] <rolsworth> does ubuntu have a problem with 5.1 sound? when i change the output to 5.1 it sounds really bad
[01:45] <alanis313> Typos_King: don't klnow that was in my dmesg output http://www.pastebin.org/255960
[01:46] <calibre> Cynthia: ok.
[01:46] <CkhiKuzad> Ok, let me rephrase it: Is it possible to completely convert GNOME from english to japanese? so that Applications says "アプリケーション"
[01:47] <Typos_King> alanis313:  well... sounds ...like you have the RT[ralink technology wireless chipset] 2860 module/driver installed and is looking for that directory, usually you'd create that and dump that .dat file over :), I used to use it myself for a MIMO card :)
[01:47] <CT1> Typos_King: "Finalising"... moment of truth.
[01:47] <Cynthia> CkhiKuzad: I don't think you have control over which characters are used in the Japanese locale; you're going to have katakana, hiragana and kanji
[01:47] <X4me1eoH> how to change this file /etc/security/limits.conf?
[01:48] <alanis313> Typos_King: well that driver was the default driver installed by the system, I have not touch any config files
[01:48] <Cynthia> CkhiKuzad: (+) Applications (a-pu-ri-kei-shyon) might be written in katakana as such, but it's not guaranteed that everything else will be
[01:48] <Typos_King> alanis313:  if your wireless adapter is not a Ralink based chipset one, check maybe in lspci, then you can just drop the driver/module
[01:48] <trism> CkhiKuzad: System/Administration/Language Support, install the japanese language packs, log out, select 日本語 as the language when you log in
[01:48] <CkhiKuzad> Cynthia, i use english. i just want to have my UI appear to  be in complete japanese
[01:49] <piper69> i need help setting  up lirc , and i am having hard time get it to work
[01:49] <CkhiKuzad> and trism, how would i install those language packs?
[01:49] <Armada64> http://webbax.se/pics/hotgirl.jpg !!!!!
[01:49] <Cynthia> "(trism) CkhiKuzad: System/Administration/Language Support"
[01:49] <trism> CkhiKuzad: in System/Administration/Language Support, it walks you through it
[01:49] <CkhiKuzad> ah, woot, thanks Cynthia and Trism
[01:50] <gbear14275> I'm trying to learn how to setup a ubuntu based web server... has anyone come across any particularly great howto's?  (ubuntu based or other?)
[01:50] <Flannel> gbear14275: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[01:50] <la-mala> how to install skype on ubuntu 10.04
[01:50] <Typos_King> CT1:    <banging drums>
[01:50] <JackStoner> anyone knows how to edit the xfce4 menu??
[01:50] <gbear14275> thanks Flannel
[01:50] <JackStoner> la-mala, go to skype.com and download it from there
[01:50] <efic> how do I remove the USA default keyboard layout from 10.04?
[01:50] <alanis313> Typos_King:  Network controller: RaLink RT2800 802.11n PCI
[01:51] <JackStoner> la-mala, get the .deb file
[01:51] <Typos_King> alanis313:  ahh, then you need it :), I do have the .dat and stuff files with me btw
[01:51] <voed> is there a specific channel, to talk about wubi-related errors ?
[01:51] <Valenza> ooo... i  think i made a stepping stone. I typed in nm-tool. says nm-tool is currently not installed you can install it by typing sudo apt-get install network-manager... only thing is 1. where can I get this if i don't have internet through ubuntu... 2. why isn't my fresh install installing something that should be standard?
[01:51] <Typos_King> alanis313:  I don't think is that necessary, but as I said, I do have the .dat file for that matter
[01:52] <edbian> Valenza, Is the only reason you don't have internet because of the network manager isn't working?
[01:52] <Typos_King> voed:    I don't think there's a wubi channel, you can try here :|
[01:52] <CT1> Typos_King: 'Tworks mate. 'tworks a treat!  THANYOU :)  Now, hopefully I can get ubuntu working again.  Thanks for your time and help!
[01:53] <alanis313> Typos_King; ok I'm doing a system update now so lets see if that will fix the issue if not then I guess I will have to try something else
[01:53] <Valenza> I don't know why my internet isn't working off a fresh install.. but it seems every solution that I find on the internet.. tells me that I don't have the files/folders
[01:53] <CkhiKuzad> Ok, new question. is there a Google Toolbar out there that will work on Ubuntu?
[01:53] <edbian> Valenza, what shows up in sudo ifconfig -a  ?
[01:53] <voed> No matter, how much I try, the Wubi installation program always gives me this error >> OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\\ubuntu\\install\\ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso' , how to recrify this, and move ahead ?
[01:53] <alanis313> Typos_King:  ok I'm doing a system update now so lets see if that will fix the issue if not then I guess I will have to try something else
[01:53] <krabador> where are synaptic packages?
[01:54] <JackStoner> krabador, what do u mean??
[01:54] <edbian> Valenza, Do you see your eth0 or something?  Are you using wired or wireless internet?
[01:54] <greezmunkey> Scunizi: You still here?
[01:54] <edbian> krabador, On servers/mirrors on the internet?
[01:54] <krabador> JackStoner, in what folder synaptic download packages before installation
[01:54] <Valenza> Im trying to connect via wireles.. ethernet is a few rooms away
[01:55] <Valenza> im seeing details for wlan
[01:55] <piper69> i need help setting  up lirc , and i am having hard time get it to work
[01:55] <JackStoner> you mean the .deb files??
[01:55] <Cynthia> krabador: /var/cache/apt/archives
[01:55] <edbian> Valenza, Do you have wlan0 in the output of sudo ifconfig -a  ?
[01:55] <krabador> Cynthia, thanx
[01:55] <CT1> Typos_King: Goodnight (or day?) to you.  I'm off to bring this macbuntu back from the dead.
[01:55] <Typos_King> hehe
[01:55] <Valenza> yes... I have wlan0 - and a bunch of details
[01:56] <RickyWh> http://www.break.com/pranks/dog-laser-prank.html
[01:56] <RickyWh> hahaha
[01:56] <edbian> Valenza, Use "ip addr"  does wlan0 have an ip address?  It should say "inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"  do you see that?
[01:56] <JackStoner> how do i change the WM from thunar to nautilus????
[01:56] <freezway> how do you resize a legend for a chart in oo.o impress
[01:57] <Valenza> nope.. no ip
[01:57] <edbian> Valenza, It is good that you have a wlan0 that means ubuntu recognized your wifi and found a driver for it.  Now it's just a matter of getting it connected to a wireless network.
[01:57] <CkhiKuzad> god i have tons of things i want to do, that i just thought of. is it possible to make a launcher for in the panel that will apt-get whatever is in your copy/paste? like have it run in the terminal when you press it and its 'sudo apt-get install [whatever is used here to signal clipboard]
[01:57] <efic> sorry to ask this question again but how do I remove the USA default keyboard layout from 10.04?
[01:57] <edbian> Valenza, Can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces  file?
[01:57] <edbian> !pastebin
[01:57] <Valenza> eeek... not really.... since im using a diffrent comp
[01:58] <Valenza> I'll see what I can do though....
[01:58] <smealio> Anyone have an ATI 10.04 solution?
[01:58] <edbian> Valenza, No worries.  Can you see the file?  What entires are there?  You can PM me if it's a lot.
[01:58] <edbian> smealio, What card are you using?
[01:58] <linuxmonster> smealio,  what is the issue your having with your Ati card.
[01:59] <JackStoner> !keymap
[02:00] <smealio> linuxmonster, super lag
[02:00] <edbian> Valenza, Here is what mine looks like: http://pastebin.com/hduHpx4N
[02:01] <smealio> edbian, XL800
[02:01] <linuxmonster> smealio,  did you install the ati catylst centre through synaptic. as I have no issues with my 4890 in it
[02:01] <edbian> smealio, Search it in synaptic
[02:01] <smealio> right on
[02:01] <smealio> i'll look her up
[02:01] <smealio> thx
[02:02] <edbian> yep
[02:02] <CkhiKuzad> is it possible to make a launcher for in the panel that will apt-get whatever is in your copy/paste? like have it run in the terminal when you press it and its 'sudo apt-get install [whatever is used here to signal clipboard]
[02:02] <linuxmonster> I belive that you can also if you swallow the agreement use the official drivers from ATi themselves
[02:02] <JackStoner> efic, i think you can go to menu> settings > keyboard
[02:03] <linuxmonster> smealio,  http://ati.amd.com if you can agree to their licence of course some refuse to of course
[02:03] <CkhiKuzad> ok, rephrasing time. what would i use to signal that the contents of the clipboard should be used in the current place?
[02:03] <linuxmonster> smealio,  But myself I just used the one packaged by ubuntu its in synaptic package manager
[02:04] <Squarism> how do i write a /bin/sh function that takes a file and does a sed replace on it?
[02:06] <onetinsoldier> Squarism: hi. you know what the bash 'shebang' is?
[02:06] <Squarism> onetinsoldier: #!/bin/sh ?
[02:07] <Squarism> or #!/bin/bash
[02:07] <greezmunkey> Hmm, I've looked all over. What do I do to determine which of two video drivers are in use?
[02:07] <onetinsoldier> Squarism: either one will work
[02:08] <Squarism> onetinsoldier: But how do i write that function?
[02:08] <onetinsoldier> hang on a moment
[02:08] <ARandomNub> Gotta love gfire =D <3
[02:08] <yaaang> help, anyone know why 'apt-get install maven2' tries to pull in dozens of gcj packages when i already have openjdk?
[02:08] <smealio> linuxmonster, synaptic showing already installed
[02:08] <BlAck6j73> greezmunkey:  how about your Xorg.log file?
[02:09] <onetinsoldier> Squarism: now you just put in the sed command
[02:09] <mataks> help please newbie here.. where can i find the add/remove program in ubuntu. if ever i like to remove program that are installed like in windows
[02:09] <smealio> mataks, synaptic

[02:09] <Squarism> in my script i want a function
[02:09] <onetinsoldier> oh....
[02:09] <smealio> system, admin, synaptic package manager
[02:10] <mataks> smealio,  ok thanks

[02:12] <purpley> Hey guys can someone help me out with this, im lagging while watching a 720p video when my cpu ang gpu could support 1080p, I have a quad core cpu 2.66ghz and a nvidia 9600 GTX+ I dont get it
[02:13] <purpley> Is that not enough to support HD?
[02:13] <ARandomNub> purpley: I had the same problem until I updated my GPU drivers.
[02:13] <linuxmonster> purpley,  its enough but have you installed the nvidia drivers
[02:13] <ARandomNub> System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[02:13] <purpley> Actually that makes sense, I never activated the drivers
[02:14] <purpley> Sorry was being stupid again :)
[02:14] <ARandomNub> :)
[02:14] <greezmunkey> BlAck6j73: THat's just it, there wasn't one, so I generated one. I have an embedded ati XL rage 128. The autogenerated xorg.conf claims that the mach64 driver is in use, but I can't definitivly proove that. I've looked through dmesg, and what not, but nothing specific regarding what driver is in use.
[02:14] <ARandomNub> Good luck, purpley. =D
[02:15] <IMTheNachoMan> hi. i am installing ubuntu in a VM on OS X to set up a web server with apache, php, PostgreSQL and django. i dont need X stuff, and I'm using VM so I can have multiple snapshots. should I use normal or server edition of ubuntu?
[02:15] <Cynthia> greezmunkey: you should be looking in /var/log/Xorg* too for that
[02:15] <linuxmonster> server edition
[02:15] <Cynthia> +1 server edition
[02:15] <greezmunkey> Cynthia: there's a good idea, didn't think of that, thanks!
[02:15] <acerimmer> +2 server
[02:15] <purpley> Wait before I reboot, does my monitor have to have that stupid full 1080p sticker on it for it to display true 1080p or is that just a marketing scheme?
[02:15] <BlAck6j73> greezmunkey: I was talking about the log file not the conf file!
[02:15] <Cynthia> purpley: stickers do naught
[02:16] <habanany> hello guys, I trying to recover grub using ubuntu live in a dual boot windows7 and lucid , but I'm stoked in this step  << Now you need to edit the /etc/default/grub file to fit your system >> without knowing what to do .   !!help please!!
[02:16] <linuxmonster> IMTheNachoMan,  the server edition in 9.10 atleast does have an option called LAMP server which is apache 2.2, MySQl, PHP and ubuntu of course
[02:16] <greezmunkey> BlAck6j73: so you were, my bad :) checking now thank you too!
[02:16] <purpley> Cynthia, But what im thinking is, would 1080p work in 1600x1200 resolution?
[02:16] <ARandomNub> purpley: yes
[02:16] <smealio> linuxmonster, no luck, but i turned off visual effects and it's a little better? it's not completely lag free but it'll work.
[02:16] <Cynthia> purpley: yeah, it'll just be a biiiiit blurry
[02:16] <wooboy> Hi! can someone tell me how to connect my pc on another guy's connection cable connection to have internet?
[02:16] <smealio> it was only set at normal
[02:16] <wooboy> do i have to use a hub?
[02:16] <Izinucs> linuxmonster: IMTheNachoMan have you tried "sudo tasksel"  LAMP should be in there as an option
[02:16] <Cynthia> software resizing and/or non-native LCD resolution
[02:16] <purpley> Cynthia, Why exactly?
[02:16] <BlAck6j73> greezmunkey: the log file should tell you what module xorg had loaded
[02:17] <ARandomNub> ^^
[02:17] <Cynthia> purpley: (+) It won't matter for most purposes
[02:17] <ARandomNub> Here's  question;
[02:17] <purpley> Alright, ill be watching from 10 or so feet away so I shouldnt see it
[02:17] <ARandomNub> I'm running 1920x1200 atm, but some reason, I think it's a tiny bit blurry...
[02:17] <ARandomNub> Could be my eyes though.
[02:17] <Cynthia> I mean, I can watch 720p on this 1440x900 monitor just fine, and 480p (SD) as well, they just appear a tiny bit blurry and quite blurry, respectively.
[02:18] <habanany> what should I do after this ? nano /etc/default/grub
[02:18] <Cynthia> ARandomNub: Auto-adjustment on the monitor.
[02:18] <Cynthia> Your pixels might be shifted by half or a quarter.
[02:19] <ARandomNub> Cynthia: I'm not sure this monitor has Auto-Adjustment.
[02:19] <habanany> arand can u help me ?
[02:19] <habanany> need help with grub
[02:19] <iflema> habanany crtl + o to save ya changes and ctrl + x to close
[02:19] <greezmunkey> BlAck6j73: Cynthia check this out! MACH64(0): Direct rendering disabled - been looking for the source of choppy flash video, me thinks this is it.
[02:19] <purpley> I love the ubuntu channel when its late :) it isnt so fast paced
[02:19] <linuxmonster> what is it your trying to do habanany ?
[02:19] <habanany> thanks iflema
[02:20] <Cynthia> habanany: You'll need to edit the file according to the rules of grub's configuration file. There are some #Comments in the file to assist you with that. In another Terminal running alongside the one you're editing /etc/default/grub in, run 'man grub' and scroll down to the CONFIGURATION section
[02:20] <habanany> linuxmonster, I'm tryingto recover grub
[02:20] <Cynthia> All of those will be good information.
[02:20] <IMTheNachoMan> Izinucs: ???
[02:20] <acerimmer> ashamed to ask but must know: what is the difference btw the ubuntu desktop cdrom and the ubuntu desktop dvd other than the size?
[02:20] <Cynthia> greezmunkey: Indeed that would be it
[02:20] <habanany> I installed windows after ubuntu and I messed up grub
[02:20] <albethiko> hola
[02:20] <Cynthia> acerimmer: More language packs and software packages.
[02:20] <greezmunkey> Cynthia: back in a bit restarting X
[02:21] <ARandomNub> Sup acerimmer :)
[02:21] <acerimmer> !es|albethiko
[02:21] <albethiko> alguno que hable español
[02:21] <_2> what's a good way to find out where grub is looking for it's files ?   i mean... i have too many disks to keep up with and i don't even know what os installed grub to /dev/hdb
[02:21] <acerimmer> Cynthia: thank u
[02:21] <acerimmer> ARandomNub: yo!
[02:21] <albethiko> hello
[02:21] <IMTheNachoMan> Izinucs: but i want postgresql
[02:21] <albethiko> how many speaking english
[02:21] <Cynthia> En #ubuntu-es se habla español, albethiko - vea el mensaje de ubottu
[02:21] <acerimmer> ARandomNub: private?
[02:21] <ARandomNub> Cynthia: Do you think my Acer monitor software (Which is used to change colours, brightness, sharpness, contrast etc) will work under WIne?
[02:21] <Cynthia> (In that channel Spanish is spoken, see ubottu's message)
[02:22] <albethiko> alguien habla< español
[02:22] <Cynthia> ARandomNub: I doubt it. That application needs driver support, and non-Windows drivers are installed. :(
[02:22] <Izinucs> IMTheNachoMan: ah.. sorry.. I came in late.. then you'll have to install each component individually
[02:22] <IMTheNachoMan> Izinucs: thats fine, but should i install ubuntu normal or server?
[02:22] <linuxmonster> habanany, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:22] <_2> i'll repete one time incase someone actually knows.
[02:22] <_2> what's a good way to find out where grub is looking for it's files ?   i mean... i have too many disks to keep up with and i don't even know what os installed grub to /dev/hdb
[02:23] <edbian> IMTheNachoMan, ubuntu server has no gui at all.  It's entirely cli
[02:23] <ARandomNub> Cynthia: Well, see, that sucks simple because I can't get the same sharpness using the monitor's controls than I can with the software; but I'll live.
[02:23] <onetinsoldier> !displaycalibrator.app
[02:23] <IMTheNachoMan> edbian: which should be good for me since i dont need x, right?
[02:23] <onetinsoldier> !info displaycalibrator.app
[02:23] <IMTheNachoMan> _2: isn't it /etc/grub.conf ??
[02:23] <Izinucs> IMTheNachoMan: If this is for yourself and you're going to have a desktop installed as well.. then ubuntu normal and add the bits you want.. if this is a business production machine server without a gui
[02:23] <linuxmonster> IMTheNachoMan,  its not only CLI only its damn fast and very efficent with memory and resources to boot
[02:23] <_2> IMTheNachoMan sure but which disk/os ?
[02:24] <Loshki> _2: grub1 had the find command. In grub2, dunno....
[02:24] <IMTheNachoMan> _2: whatever disk you have /etc mounted on
[02:24] <BlAck6j73> _2    :     not sure if ts is what you mean     but all grubs files are in  /boot/grub/
[02:24] <Cynthia> _2: I think it'll be /boot/grub/grub.cfg. You'll need to know which partition /boot is on.
[02:24] <_2> IMTheNachoMan heh  right  :)
[02:24] <IMTheNachoMan> linuxmonster: well its just for learning sql, so i'll use server edition
[02:24] <kr3w> is there a better file manager than the one included in xubuntu by default? something like the one in regular GNOME was nice.
[02:24] <linuxmonster> LAMP server is the ticket for you IMTheNachoMan
[02:24] <Cynthia> _2 (+) If you have a / partition, it'll be in PARTITION/boot/grub, otherwise it'll be in PARTITION/grub. Important distinction.
[02:25] <IMTheNachoMan> linuxmonster: i dont want mysql, i want postgresql
[02:25] <Izinucs> BlAck6j73: not true.. that was true with grub 1 but grub2 has files that are auto generated in /boot/grub and the rest of the editable files are in /etc/grub I think
[02:25] <alanis313> Can anyone help me fix my wireless connection issue?
[02:25] <_2> Cynthia and which disk too
[02:25] <masterslakk> kr3w, you talking abotu nautilus
[02:25] <masterslakk> yah it was nice, kr3w
[02:25] <Cynthia> _2: I can't help you much with that, seeing as I don't have your disks :)
[02:25] <kr3w> will it work with xubuntu?
[02:26] <BlAck6j73> Izinucs: ok
[02:26] <Cynthia> however, plug them in and see which partition has a grub/grub.cfg or whatever
[02:26] <_2> Loshki how would one use the find command in the grub shell...   there are several os's with several grubs installed   ;/
[02:26] <kr3w> the file manager in regular xubuntu, i can't see my other mounted HD's
[02:26] <IMTheNachoMan> thanks guys...
[02:26] <kr3w> it's very irritating to always goto media and access them
[02:26] <Cynthia> _2: use  root hd(number,number)  first, I think
[02:26] <kr3w> unless there is a way to add in sidebar?
[02:26] <_2> Loshki wont find see "even" the wrong config file
[02:27] <mzawieska> hello
[02:27] <onetinsoldier> kr3w: nautilus will work in xubuntu. but it will install a pretty good number of gnome packages i bet
[02:27] <kr3w> bah :|
[02:27] <mzawieska> I have question I have external drive but its not recognizable when I plug in it
[02:27] <_2> Cynthia your answer sparked an idea.   i'll edit each config with different lines and the one that shows up is the one it's using         thanks.
[02:27] <kr3w> i might just move back to regular GNOME
[02:27] <purpley> Im back
[02:28] <linuxmonster> Boot with a live cd that has grub. Issue this:as root
[02:28] <Loshki> _2: in grub1, you could type find /boot/grub/stage1 and it would search all disks it knew about for bootable stage1 files. In grub2, no idea...
[02:28] <linuxmonster> grub (enter)
[02:28] <linuxmonster> root (hd0,?) (? being where your controlling distro is)
[02:28] <linuxmonster> setup (hd0)
[02:28] <Cynthia> Ah that could be good _2
[02:28] <FloodBot1> linuxmonster: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:28] <thedude42> mzawieska, technically that's not a question
[02:28] <RudyValencia> Is it possible to move a program not launched in screen into a screen session?
[02:28] <onetinsoldier> kr3w: lol. there are other file managers you can install! but, they might not be as nice as nautilus
[02:28] <alanis313> How can I fix my wireless connection issue?
[02:28] <test34> RudyValencia, I hope it is ;)
[02:28] <kr3w> well it's the file manager, the window manager and the REALLY ugly window buttons that are bothering me right now
[02:28] <thedude42> RudyValencia, since screen is a collection of terminals, you would have to be able to change the controlling terminal of the program on the fly
[02:28] <_2> Loshki and it will find 6,  or stop at the first one...  and it will probably be the wrong one.
[02:29] <purpley> Ok the 720p video is playing a bit better but its not smooth theres tiny skips
[02:29] <kr3w> and icons, like geez. my cell phone has better icons
[02:29] <BlAck6j73> mzawieska:  have a look under the    "places"   menu
[02:29] <Loshki> _2: it will list them all. Then you get to choose one :-)
[02:29] <kr3w> once i can get those issues sorted, i will be a happy camper
[02:29] <_2> :)
[02:29] <onetinsoldier> kr3w: roger that. good luck :)
[02:29] <kr3w> good luck indeed. i've only used linux for like a month
[02:30] <thedude42> RudyValencia, i'm in no way an expert on the matter, but my understanding is that both the program and the shell executing in screen would need to support that capability
[02:30] <_2> Loshki i'll give it a wherl.   i'll edit the config files first and put uuids in them.
[02:30] <purpley> Ok the 720p video is playing a bit better but its not smooth theres tiny skips
[02:30] <_2> then i'll know which it is actually using.
[02:30] <linuxmonster> purpley,  what other things are you doing while watching the video?
[02:31] <mzawieska> http://tinypic.com/r/15qrsyt/6
[02:31] <mzawieska> this is the error I am gettin
[02:31] <mzawieska> see the partition
[02:31] <mzawieska> it says empty
[02:31] <Izinucs> RudyValencia: probably not.. however if you're ssh'd into a machine and started a program, you could ssh in again and start screen or access a different tty while ssh'd in and then initiate screen
[02:32] <LUCIDementia> I need to reformat my computer but I burned the iso onto my last CD improperly (it shows as an ISO on the disc) Is there a way to still use this or reinstall ubuntu without a disc?
[02:32] <IMTheNachoMan> wish me luck, of to install ubuntu 10.04 lts server 64 bit
[02:32] <Loshki> RudyValencia: there's no way to move an already started session to a new tty that I know of...
[02:32] <onetinsoldier> <IMTheNachoMan: good luck!
[02:32] <BlAck6j73> mzawieska:  it seems that the drive is not partitioned       is this correct?
[02:32] <mzawieska> do u guys have any ideas how can i fix it
[02:32] <linuxmonster> IMTheNachoMan,  there a reason you need 64 bit?
[02:33] <mzawieska> yess black6j
[02:33] <IMTheNachoMan> no
[02:33] <IMTheNachoMan> but im on an imac 64 bit
[02:33] <voed> Whenever i try to install Wubi, it always gives me OSError 13 Permission Denied error, even when, i've Unblocked that file, and Run it as administrator, and does always asks for downloading the iso even if it's already downloaded, If i mount the downloaded ISO image, and try to run wubi.exe, it says "Can't unpack wubi.exe - Internal Error" , how to rectify these errors, and complete the wubi setup successfully ?
[02:33] <kr3w> i do have another question, is there a gnomeDO type program for xubuntu?
[02:33] <mzawieska> i can not seee what is in the drive
[02:33] <linuxmonster> IMTheNachoMan,  my personal server runs on a quad-core phenom but I still use 32bit os I have no need for a 64bit os
[02:33] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: I have narrowed down my problem but well lucid blows, opps i mean it never saves any changes you make in the system :/ it is with the compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:33] <Loshki> LUCIDementia: nope, no way to use that disk as it won't be bootable. You might be able to do a cd-less install (see http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/, the 'frugal install' option)
[02:34] <IMTheNachoMan> linuxmonster: crap. now i gotta dl 32 bit one..k. thanks
[02:34] <IMTheNachoMan> i'll use 32 bit
[02:34] <BlAck6j73> mzawieska: is it a brand new drive?
[02:34] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: what do you mean it doesn't save you changes? what changes?
[02:34] <linuxmonster> well no you can use 64bit just I dont see the point unless you have like 8 gigs of ram
[02:34] <LUCIDementia> Loshki: Thanks. I'll give that a try
[02:34] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: you mean in the compizconfig-settings-manager none of your changes get saved?
[02:35] <thedude42> !wubi|thedude42
[02:35] <purpley> linuxmonster, downloading a file but this shouldnt happen the whole purpose of a quad core is for multitasking like this
[02:35] <purpley> Although I think its just youtube, A 1080i video on my computer just played
[02:35] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: when it is set to no effects is when i lose all my gnome-panel and window controls... under normal is when it resumes the controls etc... but if i set it to normal it does not keep the settings on reboot
[02:35] <kr3w> nice i can use gigolo instead of nautilus, does the same thing!
[02:35] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: Yes they dont save nor does the UFW enable and hmmm there is more that does not
[02:36] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: weird. have you looked here? --> System --> Preferences --> Appearance --> Visual Effect tab
[02:36] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: if you go there.. what's it set to?
[02:37] <linuxmonster> ya know onetinsoldier  I wonder if that actually even works. i have to reset my desktop visual effects month or so when i reboot lol
[02:37] <purpley> A video is asking for Microsoft Media Server (MMS) protocol source what can play this? Firefox cant find anything
[02:37] <Docteh> try vlc?
[02:37] <CkhiKuzad> Thanks, people who helped me to get the japanese language pack installed on my computer. they worked Epicly
[02:38] <dominicdinada> well that is strange lol it was set to none but the direct compizsettings applet i had the screen set to normal.. i changed it to normal ( can i remove that other crappy applet then ? )
[02:38] <onetinsoldier> linuxmonster: roger.. is this dominicdinada?
[02:38] <dominicdinada> no we are not the same person onetinsoldier
[02:38] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: roger
[02:38] <snowniak> can somebody say my name just so I can test the highlight?
[02:38] <CkhiKuzad> D: i cant get this to stop going in hiragana mode, though. but i can deal with it.
[02:39] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: it is just a buggy lucid in their rush to push it out the door on time
[02:39] <edbian> snowniak,
[02:39] <snowniak> thx
[02:39] <Sedated> snowniak, no.
[02:39] <snowniak> : p
[02:39] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: roger, hehe. i have to go... at least for a bit. i'll be back before long, i hope
[02:39] <linuxmonster> oh crap I hope our ubunto loco meeting is not tonight I just saw the time lol
[02:40] <dominicdinada> onetinsoldier: What is the cpufan package again apparently something i removed killed it :(
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  a video file is asking? or what excactly? Vlc and mplayer can play most things.
[02:40]  * linuxmonster loves Mplayer
[02:40] <onetinsoldier> dominicdinada: fancontrol
[02:40] <dominicdinada> indeed
[02:41] <linuxmonster> onetinsoldier,  if only fancontrol worked for videocards when I game boy does my GPU's fan get loud lol
[02:41] <dominicdinada> does it actually allow playing of universal formats linuxmonster
[02:42] <dominicdinada> linuxmonster: totem used to rock now it is a worthless POS
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> ive neer had much luck with totem. I normally always install vnc and mplayer first thing.
[02:42] <ARandomNub> I guess that's why I prefer Liquid Cooling over Fans, linuxmonster.  :P
[02:42] <onetinsoldier> linuxmonster: i hear you. i wish i had fan control for mine :)
[02:42] <onetinsoldier> linuxmonster: i do in ms windows
[02:42] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: I am not happy with VLC*
[02:43] <linuxmonster> dominicdinada,  I play most content in Mplayer without issue. I used to use Xine getting around the DRM on DVD's is always an issue though
[02:43] <onetinsoldier> gotta go for a bit. bbl
[02:43] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  ive rarely had issues with vlc. I use it 99% of the time these days
[02:43] <ARandomNub> dominicdinada: I use VLC in both Ubuntu and Windows; I have no problems on either o/s =)
[02:43] <linuxmonster> Next box I build I am going to try a XMBC build see how it fairs with content
[02:43] <moes> Lucid 10.04..grub2 1.98 what file do I use to comment or uncomment kernels from the display screen
[02:43] <a94060> vlc is pretty good imo too
[02:44] <Dr_Willis> XBMC is nice - but overkill for my needs most of the time.
[02:44] <Dr_Willis> i forget what player xbmc is using in the background. mplayer proberlly
[02:44] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: linuxmonster I dont prefer VLC but totem even following restricted formats howto still does not play anything EVERY time i load a video in it it always wants a plugin
[02:44] <linuxmonster> MythBuntu is also nice if you use a TV tuner card
[02:44] <ef-> I run Karmic in English and want to keep it that way in all possible ways, still I need the locale files for different language in order for setlocale () in PHP to work
[02:45] <ef-> How can I install this in Ubuntu?
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  totam has always had that 'trying to be smart but failing'  with codecs and stuff..  Ive not had it nag me lately.. but i rarely use it.
[02:45] <ef-> It's the not-affect-rest-of-system part I'm concerned of
[02:45] <dominicdinada> and when i say anything i have avi,mp4,flv,wmv, you name it i must have tried a video in every format its worthless
[02:45] <nickaugust> help!  :)  hey guys i just pulled my hardrive out of my macbook pro and put in a blank cosair SSD then ran the live CD to try to install unbuntu... unfortunatly both gparted and the installer do not detect any hard drives.. any ideas?
[02:45] <musturd> I just wrote an awesome shell script that optimizes searching for latin words in an awesome dictionary that recognizes endings of words. Anyone interested?
[02:46] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: I beg to differ in Karmic i had to add the codecs and then it played everything with out a problem for me
[02:46] <dominicdinada> musturd: have a cookie buddy
[02:46] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  even then i would have it ask a few times.. of course I normally  had allready installed the other players. so i dont pay much attention to totem any more
[02:46] <ARandomNub> Must go, all. Thanks @ everyone who helped. =)
[02:46] <coz_> hey guys... ok  you know this has been happening for the past 3 years...during beta  web cams work really well...after release nothing!!
[02:46] <ARandomNub> Have fun!
[02:46] <linuxmonster> what are those plugins something-blah-bad adds a bunch of ones that allow most encrypted dvd's to play
[02:46] <musturd> dominicdinada: heh it's useful for latin students, I want to share with the world
[02:46] <LUCIDementia> I'm trying to do a frugal install (boot ubuntu without a disc) but having some troubles. Anyone here familiar with this process?
[02:47] <Izinucs> linuxmonster: they are accessable in the medibuntu repo's
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> Now a days i got a 'first time run script' that installs most all the codec and other packages by hand. So i proberly woulodent see totem even ask  these days. since i got the stuff installed allready.
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> LUCIDementia:  trying to boot what exactly? the iso file? a flash drive?
[02:47] <purpley> Whats the highest definition DVI can play?
[02:47] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: See i have so much  video audio etc i got from school/alum or what not that i got over a TB of various videos and well never had an issue before :(
[02:47] <purpley> Thats watchable and smooth
[02:48] <linuxmonster> purpley as big as your screen and card support
[02:48] <LUCIDementia>  UNetbootin,  Universal Netboot Installer . Supposedly can make a bootable installer on the harddrive, but when I try to open the file it asks what application I want to use to open it
[02:48] <purpley> linuxmonster, Then whats the difference between HDMI and DVI besides HDMI carrying audio?
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> dominicdinada:  one reason i stick with vlc - i never have issues.. i got tons of videos also. some are a bit obscure. I have had totem not like a lot of them. (not tried them all in 10.04's totem however) Then again Theres other features I like in vlc that are not in totem.
[02:48] <LUCIDementia> which baffles me since I thought it's supposed to be installing something
[02:48] <linuxmonster> purpley,  DVI and HDMI are the exact same just HDMI also can carry audio DVi cant
[02:48] <valbaca> LUCID it needs dependicies
[02:48] <purpley> Oh wow
[02:49] <valbaca> try apt-get install unetbootin
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> LUCIDementia:   that makes a specialized 'live cd' type install to the hard drive. it will not be the same as a normal install. You wont be able to save changes.
[02:49] <linuxmonster> purpley,  both are digital signal just HDMI also carrys Surround audio aswell is all
[02:49] <dominicdinada> Dr_Willis: sigh i know... and Lucid for me has not correctly ever saved associations of files...
[02:49] <dominicdinada> I might check into going back to karmic....
[02:49] <LUCIDementia> no one can seem to get my wireless to work so I was told to reformat my harddrive. I'm trying to do that but I don't have any more CDs, so I was sent this link. Is that not what it does?
[02:50] <Dr_Willis> LUCIDementia:  I always make bootable flash drive media to install from. I never burn cd's any more
[02:50] <valbaca> unetbootin needs pzip-full
[02:50] <linuxmonster> I hate to say it but only my Laptop runs Lucid at present I rolled all the others back to Karmic as I also run Folding@home and the smp client wont run in Lucid due to library linking
[02:50] <dominicdinada> LUCIDementia: how would formatting your hard drive help your wireless problem if you didnt install or configure the drivers to begin with
[02:50] <Izinucs> LUCIDementia: reformat your harddrive to get wireless working... don't think so.  that's not going to fix the problem.
[02:51] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> can someone explain what ubuntu enterprise cloud is/is used for?
[02:51] <dominicdinada> linuxmonster: how can i roll it back without losing all my settings/data?
[02:51] <moes> Lucid 10.04..grub2 1.98 what file do I use to comment or uncomment kernels from the display screen
[02:51] <ef-> well this is great heh ;-)
[02:51] <LUCIDementia> dominicdinada: I tried everything I could find that sounded close to my problem. When nothing worked and #ubuntu couldn't help they said it could be because I screwed something up along the way. I don't know enough to undo this damage so I'm trying to start over
[02:51] <valbaca> hawaiian: what do you already know about clouds?
[02:52] <linuxmonster> dominicdinada,  I never deleted 9.10 so I just removed Lucid and removed the entrys in grub that pointed to lucid
[02:52] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> basically keeping your data and applications on the web
[02:52] <ef-> if anyone has problems with locales, look at /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local, add / remove
[02:52] <ef-> and run dpkg-reconfigure locales
[02:52] <ef-> happiness and wellness
[02:52] <ef-> allover.
[02:52] <FloodBot1> ef-: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:52] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> nothing technical really :| should probably learn more someday
[02:52] <Dr_Willis> moes:  i t6end to uninstall the kernels i dont need. i alwyas leave like 2 installed however for backups.
[02:52] <dominicdinada> if you have a usb thumb drive or external drive u could make a live(usb) provided your bios supports usb boot
[02:52] <ef-> :-)
[02:52] <valbaca> it's basically a way for sysadmins to setup a cloud
[02:52] <purpley> Hey vlc doesnt support MMS
[02:53] <dominicdinada> linuxmonster: ahhh i guess i will have to prep this to be wiped :)
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  give a url to a MMS stream and lets see.. I belive ive used it to play mms:// type urls befor
[02:53] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> i'll play around with it in a vm sometime
[02:53] <linuxmonster> Can also checkou Ubuntuone its a personal cloud thats free for 2 gigs of space I belive it's 2gigs
[02:53] <valbaca> sounds like a fun project :)
[02:54] <purpley> Dr_Willis, mms://a1558.l1856921557.c18569.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1558/18569/v0001/reflector:21557 | Its a NASA stream
[02:54] <dominicdinada> linuxmonster: i have a fileserver with way more than enuff space...
[02:54] <afterdark> valbaca, or anyone, what exactly is a cloud? is it like a load balancing cluster?
[02:54] <LUCIDementia> I don't have a external drive other than a 320GB external harddrive. So there isn't a way to boot from the harddrive?
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  I know ive waatched Nasa stuff in totem, and mplayer (I think) and vlc. :) im always watching the shuttle launches.
[02:54] <afterdark> is it like what openMOSIX was trying to become?
[02:54] <linuxmonster> I watch Baseball in Mozilla lol
[02:55] <purpley> Dr_Willis, I think it might be that im running 64 bit you think thats the problem?
[02:55] <valbaca> wikipedia can say more that i ever can :)
[02:55] <valbaca> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing
[02:55] <purpley> Also glad someone else loves nasa
[02:55] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  on 64bit here.
[02:56] <purpley> Dr_Willis, What are you using to run it?
[02:56]  * bollullera tiene sueño
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  I know ive used totem at the nasa web sites befor.
[02:56] <bollullera> ZzZ g-night!
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  that stream seems to be having some isues however. 'connection refused' in the terminal
[02:56] <valbaca> I always think of it as a way for companies to stop having in-house server farms and moving everything away from "applications/programs" to things like "google docs"
[02:56] <linuxmonster> I used to have a NASA theme for firefoxbut seem to have lost it when I updated firefox
[02:56] <purpley> Thats what im using
[02:57] <dominicdinada> nom nom dam dumping a GIG off this laptop :O
[02:57] <douglas> my onboard wireless sometimes does not work
[02:57] <linuxmonster> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4908/
[02:58] <linuxmonster> ^ if you like NASA
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  the nasatv works -> http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html?param=public
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  and i can open it fullscreen in vlc. and its a mms: stream
[02:58] <douglas> and the way i get it working is by plugging in a usb intena then after a few minuts of plugging it in and out , the onboard modem works
[02:58] <douglas> it so wierd can someone help  me
[02:59] <purpley> Dr_Willis, I cant pick vlc because i have to search for it, where is it located on the machine?
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> use the command 'which vlc'
[02:59] <valbaca> douglas: any info on your card?
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  i got vlc setup as my default player in firefox - there muse be some vlc plugin pakcage i used
[02:59] <PlasmaSheep_> I have committed a great folly: I upgraded to 10.04. Now my bt keyboard+mouse, which are paired with a dongle, do not work. They work until the purple splash screen that says "ubuntu" on it. Then they lose connection to the dongle.
[03:00] <purpley> Dr_Willis, Oh I fixed it, had to install a dev libary
[03:00] <Kentrel> I'm on a UK keyboard and when I want a double quote I get a " - but for writing php code I need a ” - how do i switch this?
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  or try the command ->  vlc mms://s1swmod021.bcst.cdn.s1s.yimg.com/nqsenc003_d?StreamID=107044091&pl_auth=17b46b7a6a836f46715ee0b82a5758f2&ht=120&pl_b=00CEBE2D6A47E540D978CCA3E94BF4971B&CG_ID=1369080&Segment=149773
[03:00] <douglas> let me see....
[03:01] <Guest48736> hi, how do I tell bash not to show the entire path in the command line?
[03:01] <PlasmaSheep_> this is not a usb port problem, a port which definitely provides energy does not allow the dongle to be paired.
[03:01] <valbaca> guest: pwd
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> Guest48736:  check out the 'bash prompt howto' for prompt tweaking OF the pompt.
[03:01] <valbaca> or do you mean to the left of "$"
[03:02] <Chakan> I have a installation problem with Ubuntu.  Can someone help me please?
[03:02] <purpley> Dr_Willis, Now when I try to change the plugin from manage content plug-ins in firefox i change it to vlc but then I click away and it goes back to the default?
[03:02] <PlasmaSheep_> I have committed a great folly: I upgraded to 10.04. Now my bt keyboard+mouse, which are paired with a dongle, do not work. They work until the purple splash screen that says "ubuntu" on it. Then they lose connection to the dongle.
[03:02] <edbian> Chakan, What's the problem?
[03:02] <douglas> broadcomb43 wireless
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> purpley:  no idea. Ive never needed to change it. vlc was in my list to begin with and its the default media player embedede also.
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> bye all work time
[03:02] <LUCIDementia> when my computer comes back from Suspend, it sounds like everything starts running just fine but the screen stays black
[03:02] <valbaca> plasma: re-syncing does nothing?
[03:02] <douglas> broadcomb 43 wireless
[03:03] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, they cannot establish a connection
[03:03] <douglas> broadcomb 43 wireless
[03:03] <linuxmonster> douglas,  did you install the B43 driver
[03:03] <Chakan> I burn it to a DVD and when I go to reboot it won't boot.  My computer also sees the DVD as blank when it is not.  I put it in my other computer and it sees it just fine.  My computer boots from windows recovery disk fine, but won't boot from my DVD.  All CDs and DVDs work but Ubuntu CDs it will see an empty disk...
[03:03] <ubuntu> !chat
[03:03] <douglas> yes
[03:03] <PlasmaSheep_> I am currently typing using a ps/2 keyboard valbaca
[03:03] <douglas> but it dosent work like 1/6 th of the times
[03:03] <douglas> it works most of the time
[03:04] <douglas> im using it now but sometimes, it does not
[03:04] <douglas> and   i needed it today and i couldnt get it to work
[03:04] <linuxmonster> weired I have that on one of my laptops using a very old Linksys wireless B pcmcia card and it never shuts off
[03:04] <Posiedon_99> problem with pidgin
[03:04] <valbaca> plasma: lemme search...
[03:04] <LUCIDementia> I want to make a make a bootable USB drive to reformat my computer. Do I have to delete everything else on it?
[03:05] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, ubuntu just showed me a dialog asking if I want to allow a bt device, I clicked "always grant", and am attempting to resync
[03:05] <Chakan> Why does my computer always see a burned Ubuntu CD as "empty" when it is not?  It sees data on all other CDs but not my burnt Ubuntu CD.  This is very frustrating.
[03:05] <acerimmer> Luciddementia  that usb is going to get formatted during the create process
[03:05] <valbaca> that "always grant" is kind of useless when connecting bt devices
[03:05] <valbaca> use the bluetooth "setup new device..."
[03:06] <LUCIDementia> ....you tell me. As far as I know all I'm doing is putting a file on it that somehow reformats my computer.
[03:06] <valbaca> you may also want to try apt-get install blueman
[03:06] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, the strange thing is that they should not be bt devices, they should "talk" to the dongle
[03:06] <valbaca> oh usb dongle...hm
[03:07] <valbaca> what model?
[03:07] <LUCIDementia> acerimmer: is there a way to use the USB to reformat my computer without having to delete everything else? I'm just borrowing it from someone
[03:07] <Posiedon_99> ??
[03:07] <NightDragon> hey, could someone possibly help me with a server issue i'm having?
[03:07] <linuxmonster> LUCIDementia,  you mean just blank your HD period or reinstall Ubuntu to it after?
[03:07] <Cynthia> NightDragon: describe the issue first
[03:08] <mzpl> non mais merde je peut avoir quelqu'un en francais
[03:08] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, logitech mx 5500, but I am attempting to set up a bt connection without dongle
[03:08] <Cynthia> mzpl: désolé mais #ubuntu-fr serait mieux
[03:08] <Cynthia> [sorry but #ubuntu-fr would be better]
[03:08] <acerimmer> lucidedementia: if u boot the usb as a live cd, then all teh normal functions, i.e. gparted are available.
[03:08] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, ubuntu has found both devices, but does not let me go forward
[03:08] <NightDragon> Cynthia: its a postfix issue, specifically
[03:08] <IMTheNachoMan> is there any point to encrypting my home directory?
[03:08] <LUCIDementia> linuxmonster: I want to reinstall Ubuntu but don't have any CDs.
[03:08] <valbaca> PlasmaSheep: uh oh https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-bluetooth/+bug/553964
[03:08] <NightDragon> i'm having trouble getting a SMTP server to work
[03:08] <Cynthia> NightDragon: I haven't dealt with postfix; ask to the channel and someone who has can answer you
[03:09] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, mouse successfully set up
[03:09] <PlasmaSheep_> moving on to keyboad
[03:09] <LUCIDementia> (accidentally left the room. If anyone responded please send it again)
[03:09] <Cynthia> LUCIDementia: No messages to you while you were parted
[03:09] <flan_suse> Anyone here tried Lucid + Banshee + iPod Nano?
[03:10] <valbaca> from the bug report:
[03:10] <valbaca> I had to pair mouse and keyboard by hand, giving the PIN on keyboard to work. After restart only mouse is working, keyboard is seem to be connected, but not working. I tried couple of times. In Karmic Koala and earlier the dongle bluetooth was connecting after I push the button on dongle and device (now its not working that way).
[03:11] <PlasmaSheep_> valbaca, both seem to be working now, will reboot and see what happens
[03:11] <flan_suse> When using Banshee to manage an iPod Nano 4th Gen, the cover art shows fine on Banshee, but in the iPod, all the cover art is missing from every single album.
[03:11] <flan_suse> Is there a workaround for this?
[03:11] <PlasmaSheep_> I swear to god, nothing good has ever happened to me for upgrading ubuntu
[03:11] <LUCIDementia> okay, apparently this question was deceptively difficult. Can someone tell me about "frugal installs" instead?
[03:11] <valbaca> PlasmaSheep: good luck
[03:12] <douglas> sorry my internet died
[03:12] <douglas> see waht i mean
[03:12] <douglas> how can i fix this perminantly?
[03:12] <jken418> !netinst | LUCIDementia
[03:13] <greezmunkey> Cynthia: Heh, that was it - not much of an improvement on glxgears, but enough to clear up most of the "choppyness"
[03:13] <jken418> !netinstall | LUCIDementia
[03:13] <LUCIDementia> jken418: I see my name but I don't understand what you're trying to tell me
[03:13] <Cynthia> greezmunkey: were you the one with the nVidia card?
[03:13] <NightDragon> wooo ubuntu
[03:13] <douglas> ubuntu ftw
[03:13] <NightDragon> douglas
[03:13] <NightDragon> :
[03:13] <jken418> LUCIDementia: soyyy, I thought the bot would be more helpful
[03:13] <NightDragon> sorry my internet died
[03:13] <NightDragon> lol
[03:13] <FloodBot1> NightDragon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:13] <PlasmaSheep> valberg, just rebooted
[03:13] <ramiro> hi, how do I access the internet through an assn tunnel to another computer?
[03:13] <greezmunkey> Cynthia: embedded ati rage XL (read ancient)
[03:13] <PlasmaSheep> valberg, both keyboard and mouse work
[03:13] <ramiro> I mean ssh tunnel
[03:14] <Cynthia> greezmunkey: ah, ok :)
[03:14] <NightDragon> mmm ya sorry... stupid colloquy
[03:14] <PlasmaSheep> thanks for your help, valberg
[03:14] <NightDragon> ramiro: what your looking for is what is known as a HTTP Proxy
[03:14] <LUCIDementia> jken418: so that response was generated by a bot...?
[03:14] <jken418> LUCIDementia: A net install is where you download a small CD image, install a very basic system from that and then install only the packages you need in addition. So you have total custimisation and no bloat.
[03:14] <NightDragon> if you just want to access websites pretending that you are a different machine
[03:14] <jken418> LUCIDementia: Yeah, ubottu is the helper bot here.
[03:14] <NightDragon> otherwise, what you are looking for is what is known as a VPN
[03:14] <douglas> my wireless internet modem is always dieing
[03:15] <LUCIDementia> jken418: I was told to reformat my harddrive because no one can seem to get my wireless working and that might help somehow. Would a frugal install do that for me?
[03:15] <douglas> its....evil
[03:15] <jken418> Probably not.
[03:15] <NightDragon> LUCIDementia: what are you running?
[03:15] <LUCIDementia> 10.04
[03:15] <douglas> it doesent like me
[03:16] <NightDragon> okay
[03:16] <jken418> !wireless | LUCIDementia
[03:16] <jken418> LUCIDementia: ^ That's where I'd start
[03:16] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, what wireless card is this?
[03:16] <NightDragon> lucid: when you use wireless on your ubuntu machine, and it cuts out... does it cut out for others as well? or only you?
[03:16] <LUCIDementia> yea I've tried every help document and forum post that seemed remotely related. The only suggestions I ended up with is that maybe somewhere along the way I changed something that I shouldn't have, hence the reformat
[03:17] <greezmunkey> jken418: he has a tricky wrapper situation if I remember right.
[03:17] <jken418> OIC
[03:17] <LUCIDementia> and I don't know exactly. If you can tell me how to check I'll let you know
[03:17] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, but did it work earlier?
[03:17] <NightDragon> LUCIDementia:  does it cut out for everyone or just you?
[03:17] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, pastebin the output of this: sudo lspci -v
[03:18] <LUCIDementia> no, I just installed Ubuntu about a week ago and the wireless has never worked. Although once I installed the b43 driver I can see the networks, but still can't connect
[03:18] <mashakel> hi
[03:19] <LUCIDementia> here's the results of sudo lspci -v     http://paste.ubuntu.com/436530/
[03:19] <realubot> I tried to create an new account. Then I try to switch user. I logged in to the newly created account but then I get error messages about some ICE.authority file and something about missing directories in home. Why isn't it working as expected?
[03:19] <BlAck6j73> greezmunkey:  did you get your graphics sorted?
[03:19] <NightDragon> in that case lucid its probably a driver problem as opposed to a router problem.  What kind of ... oh you did lspci cool
[03:20] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, so right now, you are able to see wireless networks?
[03:20] <LUCIDementia> yes
[03:21] <RudyValencia> How do I get Linux to mount a UFS2 disk that was formerly in a FreeBSD system?
[03:21] <greezmunkey> BlAck6j73: I got as much out of it as I'll be able to, but at least I can see video clips now. Thanks for asking :)
[03:21] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, what exactly happens when you try to connect to your wireless router?
[03:22] <LUCIDementia> it spins for about 30 seconds then says "Wireless Network  Disconnected" or something generic like that
[03:23] <LUCIDementia> worth noting: it shows full bars and worked just fine when I was using Windows
[03:24] <greezmunkey> LUCIDementia: in a terminal, you can type "tail -f /var/log/syslog" (sans quotes) to see the process in a bit more detail.
[03:25] <NightDragon> LUCID
[03:25] <NightDragon> your driver is likely working fine
[03:25] <NightDragon> you have misconfigured something within your settings
[03:25] <NightDragon> such as the wireless password, etc etc
[03:26] <starnostar> what does "backend" do, i just installed the 64 bit flash (32 wasnt working right) and forgot to uninstall the 32 bit, maxed out one of my processors and didnt show in system monitor, had to kill via pid in top
[03:26] <NightDragon> this can be confirmed by going to a public wifi and seeing if you can connect
[03:26] <LUCIDementia> there is no wireless password on the network, but if there's something going on behind the scenes hopefully you can spot it here :  http://paste.ubuntu.com/436535/
[03:26] <NightDragon> starnostar: http://tinyurl.com/27u67so
[03:27] <greezmunkey> LUCIDementia: remove the space in your SSID !!!
[03:27] <LUCIDementia> I don't know what that means
[03:27] <starnostar> i did search for it, there are appearently many different backend's, and none of these posts relate to my problem, spent 30 minutes on google
[03:27] <greezmunkey> LUCIDementia: make Oak Timber == OakTimbar
[03:28] <greezmunkey> misspelled it, but you get the idea
[03:28] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, change your "Wireless Network Name" in the wireless router so that it doesn't contain spaces.
[03:28] <starnostar> and i wouldnt ask about it here if i could find it on google
[03:28] <Macer> anybody having problems booting a kubuntu 10.04 install cd?
[03:28] <NightDragon> ok well then the best way
[03:28] <NightDragon> would be to do a "man backend"
[03:28] <acerimmer> Macer: what probs u have?
[03:28] <acerimmer> !anyone|macer
[03:28] <kapala> hi
[03:28] <LUCIDementia> the SSID listed is "linksys"  That's just the name of the connection along with Auto hpsetup  and  Auto default
[03:28] <LUCIDementia> but I'll try it
[03:29] <starnostar> thanks, didnt show up in synaptic, figured it was some deep rooted system process
[03:29] <NightDragon> LUCIDementia: is your network secure?
[03:29] <NightDragon> lol no problem man
[03:29] <LUCIDementia> it's not password protected if that's what you mean
[03:29] <Macer> ubottu: uhm. the "problem booting the kubuntu install cd" wasn't good enough?
[03:29] <Macer> :)
[03:29] <sebsebseb> LUCIDementia: you should use some protection
[03:29] <sebsebseb> LUCIDementia: not WEP,  but WPA2 or whatever it is
[03:29] <IMTheNachoMan> are there any cli firewall configuration programs?
[03:29] <Macer> acerimmer: boots ... picks language.. then error .. can't find boot cd
[03:30] <Macer> when choosing "install kubuntu"
[03:30] <unitypunk> anyone want to help me figure out how to get my sound to work coming in from my tv card?
[03:30] <acerimmer> Macer: did u run a checksumm on the download?
[03:30] <unitypunk> tisnt muted.
[03:30] <Macer> the possibility of a bad download is like...<PHONE_NUMBER>329132138784324923798132:1 :)
[03:30] <unitypunk> seems to be a major problem with a bunch of people.
[03:30] <LUCIDementia> I'm sure protection is normally a good thing but I don't own this modem or router. I just live here for the summer
[03:30] <acerimmer> Macer: ok  - but DID you check the iso via checksum and check the burned CD?
[03:31] <Macer> acerimmer: no. but i'll try that
[03:31] <NightDragon> Macer: what probably happened here is you burned the CD too fast
[03:31] <NightDragon> when you burn the CD at max speed
[03:31] <NightDragon> there tends to be a few minor errors on the CD
[03:31] <Macer> NightDragon: thought about that.. burned it at 4x  just in case
[03:31] <SmartViking> My ysb wont mount!
[03:31] <starnostar> never burn a cd at max speed
[03:31] <Macer> maybe it is some oddball cdrw bug
[03:31] <roygbiv> hi i'm trying build my own version of tk but i need the X11 header files in lucid. anyone know which package contains those?
[03:31] <LUCIDementia> so.....any more ideas? It seems like things should be working, so why aren't they?
[03:31] <SmartViking> usb*
[03:31] <hacim> i made a CD of lucid, and when I boot from it, I get the boot menu and if I press enter on 'try ubuntu without installing' nothing happens
[03:31] <hacim> same with install
[03:31] <NightDragon> macer the easy way is to verify the disk
[03:31] <RudyValencia> How do I get Linux to mount a UFS2 disk that was formerly in a FreeBSD system?
[03:31] <Macer> i burned it on an opensolaris box using cdrw
[03:32] <rshakin> happy bday to me :0)
[03:32] <Macer> hacim: heh. well. sounds similar to mmy problem
[03:32] <acerimmer> hacim: with desktop iso or alternate?
[03:32] <LUCIDementia> rshakin: happy birthday (:
[03:32] <douglas> happy birthday
[03:32] <hacim> the CDRW drive flashes, but nothing
[03:32] <hacim> i burned with wodim
[03:32] <SmartViking> How do i mount my usb?
[03:32] <douglas> rshakin: happy birthday (:
[03:32] <gbear14275> I'm getting a "failed to configure package manager" when I'm trying to setup a jeos VM...  not sure whats going wrong...
[03:32] <acerimmer> !checksum|hacim
[03:32] <RudyValencia> SmartViking: What file system?
[03:32] <sebsebseb> rshakin: I did a tiny bit of Ubuntu support in here on my last birthday,  and I kept it secret from everyone as well, that  it was my birthday :D
[03:32] <Macer> can i download kubuntu 9.04 from somewhere?
[03:33] <SmartViking> RudyValencia: Prettu sure its ext4
[03:33] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, so the name of your network is linksys?
[03:33] <sebsebseb> Macer: yes
[03:33] <roygbiv> heh
[03:33] <geirha> LUCIDementia: Have you talked with the owner of the router? It could be it's set up to only allow connections based on hwaddr
[03:33] <acerimmer> hacim: if u haven't done so, plz check the downloaded iso with checksum.  also check the burned cd.
[03:33] <LUCIDementia> when I go to properties that's the listed SSID
[03:33] <sebsebseb> Macer: releases.kubuntu.org/9.04 or something like that I guess
[03:33] <roygbiv> which package contains the X11 header files?
[03:33] <sebsebseb> Macer: I guess you can ask #kubuntu for the proper answer
[03:33] <LUCIDementia> as far as they know computers run on magic
[03:33] <Brando753> guys how can i connect to wifi on ubuntu server
[03:33] <sebsebseb> Macer: oh by the way 9.04 runs out of support at the end of October no more security updates
[03:33] <Macer> sebsebseb: oh. thought they  merged here
[03:33] <douglas> i <3 the space slidshow backround
[03:33] <Izinucs> Macer: what's the question?
[03:33] <greezmunkey> LUCIDementia: Here's a tip, edit your wireless profile. If the SSID - natwork name - is Oak Timber, change it to "Oak Timber" and try again.
[03:33] <Macer> sebsebseb: yeah but i can install 9.04 and dist-update
[03:34] <Macer> or 9.10 ;)
[03:34] <Macer> something
[03:34] <Macer> as long as it can install
[03:34] <sebsebseb> Macer: probably best to clean install  when 10.10 comes out
[03:34] <acerimmer> Macer: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/jaunty/
[03:34] <sebsebseb> Macer: 9.04 untill the end of October is fine
[03:34] <sebsebseb> Macer: and it really is better than 9.10 and 10.04 in certain ways
[03:34] <SmartViking> RudyValencia: It was some files that i wanted to delete on it, but i could not mount them because it was busy with "ls" so i killed the "ls" process, after then i could not mount
[03:34] <RudyValencia> hm not sure
[03:35] <sebsebseb> Macer: this channel is also for Kubuntu suport, but they also have #kubuntu
[03:35] <RudyValencia> umount it first?
[03:35] <alanis313> How can I enable CUPS
[03:35] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, properties of what?
[03:35] <geirha> LUCIDementia: Have you tried connecting to it with a wired connection, just to see if that works correctly?
[03:35] <LUCIDementia> the dropdown box shows the name "linksys". I can create a....well, whatever it's called when you make a name like "My Internet Connection" but I've tried changing that a lot
[03:35] <ferfactor> i want to know which is the best instant messenger?
[03:35] <Izinucs> Macer: I run kubuntu on one machine.. what's the question?
[03:35] <alanis313> for some reason I can't install printers
[03:35] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, pastebin this: iwlist scan
[03:36] <SmartViking> how do i mount my usb?
[03:36] <Macer> Izinucs: the x86 install cd image i downloaded from wisc.edu seems to not boot when choosing "install kubuntu"
[03:36] <M25> I'm looking for a way to simulate X11 keyboard input on a computer I can ssh into, assuming I can ssh into the same account that's logged into X on screen.  I essentailly want to use my laptop as a keyboard for my htpc
[03:36] <Macer> it says "can not find boot cd" when trying with some error msg
[03:36] <Izinucs> Macer: but you get to the main live desktop screen?
[03:36] <Macer> no.. i was trying to install straight on boot
[03:36] <linxeh> M25: how about synergy2 ?
[03:36] <Macer> i do get the lang selection
[03:37] <Macer> and the menu asking to boot the live stuff or install
[03:37] <Izinucs> Macer: is this a desktop or laptop?  home built or store purchase?
[03:37] <he||phyre> greezmunkey: got a second?
[03:37] <M25> linxeh: the particular device that's dialing in doesn't have X, I think synergy requires it
[03:37] <|droid|> #!/bin/bash What is that
[03:37] <LUCIDementia> Interface doesn't support scanning
[03:37] <Macer> older compaq
[03:37] <Macer> desktop
[03:37] <Macer> it's actually not mine. i'm installing it for someone
[03:37] <linxeh> M25: what does it have? just terminal linux ?
[03:37] <greezmunkey> he||phyre: sure, what's up?
[03:37] <Max-P> Hi, does anyone know how Ubuntu Lucid accesses iPod touch filesystem because I need to access it from command-line
[03:37] <Izinucs> Macer: is it home built?
[03:37] <K-19> ferfactor : Try Pidgin..
[03:38] <BlAck6j73> M25:  I think you can tunnel X over ssh
[03:38] <M25> linxeh: yeah, its a zipit z2, feel free to google
[03:38] <Macer> Izinucs: not unless you know of many home built compaqs
[03:38] <he||phyre> greezmunkey: hey whats up... im having powersaving issues on this laptop. the screen dims on suspend or inactivity but when it wakes up it doesnt brighten up again
[03:38] <Izinucs> Macer: ah.. compaq
[03:38] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, just that one line?
[03:38] <he||phyre> greezmunkey: any idea?
[03:38] <linxeh> BlAck6j73: thats not what he's trying to do
[03:38] <alanis313> How can I connect to my local CUPS server
[03:38] <M25> BlAck6j73: yeah, that's for doing it the other way around, having x display and control on the remote device
[03:38] <Macer> it's like an older p4 compaq
[03:38] <|droid|> What does this do? #!/bin/bash
[03:38] <acerimmer> Macer: u could maybe try alternate install and/or verify the right 32/64 bit iso
[03:38] <BlAck6j73> M25:  ah ok
[03:39] <ferfactor> K-19 i know pidgin, but i want to know another msn program
[03:39] <greezmunkey> he||phyre: yikes, no. Sorry. I've seen a bit of there here from time to time though, post the Q to the group, we'll see what shakes out.
[03:39] <Macer> acerimmer: did already
[03:39] <Macer> it's x86
[03:39] <Macer> i will try another cd and see what i get. thanks
[03:39] <M25> BlAck6j73: I do that on a regular basis though, it's pretty sweet, beats the living bejeezus out of vnc
[03:39] <gonzaloaf> hello, my FN + brightness up and down are not working, I have modified the files /etc/acpi/video_brightnessup.sh and /etc/acpi/video_brightnessdown.sh, when I execute them like #sh video_brigtnessdown.sh they work, but when I press FN+F7 or FN+F8 they don't work, so I suspect that the key combination its not being recognized by the system, how can I check or assign that?
[03:39] <LUCIDementia> three. One for "lo", one for "eth0" and "wlan0" says No scan results
[03:39] <yaxomoxay> how do you install 10.10 packages? I noticed some bugs for 10.10 are already on launchpad
[03:39] <he||phyre> peoples... im having powersaving issues on this laptop. the screen dims on suspend or inactivity but when it wakes up it doesnt brighten up again. any help would be swell.
[03:40] <K-19> ferfactor : Then try looking in Ubuntu Software Centre...(Many are waiting)
[03:40] <he||phyre> running lucid'
[03:40] <Izinucs> Macer: missed that before.. outside chance this might work.. it really depends on the motherboard that's being used by compaq.. on boot you should have the ability to hit F6 and modify the kernel boot line.. just before "quiet splash" add pci=nomsi and then maybe acpi might be an issue.. so also add noacpi (I think) someone will have to correct that last one.
[03:40] <ferfactor> K-19 ok im searching another msn client, thank for your atention!!!
[03:40] <M25> linxeh: yeah, synergy requires X to run
[03:40] <BlAck6j73> M25:  is there a lot  more overhead?
[03:40] <roygbiv> he||phyre you could disable screen dimming as a workaround
[03:41] <LUCIDementia> flan_suse: is that normal?
[03:41] <M25> BlAck6j73: than vnc?  significantly less overhead, you don't send raw pictures most of the time, it's just X11 commands, which are much lighter
[03:41] <he||phyre> roygbiv: though about it but as a last resort only
[03:41] <ferfactor> well i have another problem, i want to change my screen resolution, to 1024-768 but when i change it, the image on the screen go out and i don't see anything
[03:41] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, no scan results? But the Network Manager DOES show results?
[03:41] <ferfactor> in other words i can change the screen resolution
[03:41] <BlAck6j73> M25:  right
[03:41] <M25> BlAck6j73: if you use a non-pixmap based theme, and no icons, you don't really send images at all
[03:41] <matcouto> Is there an app which hides my email client but shows me a notification when a receive a new email?
[03:42] <linxeh> M25: there might be something that injects into uinput or something
[03:42] <greezmunkey> LUCIDementia: did you run "iwlist wlan0 scanning" yet?
[03:42] <gonzaloaf> hello, my FN+F7 and FN+F8 brightness keys are not working, I have modified the files /etc/acpi/video_brightnessup.sh and /etc/acpi/video_brightnessdown.sh, when I execute them like #sh video_brigtnessdown.sh they work, but when I press FN+F7 or FN+F8 they don't work, so I suspect that the key combination its not being recognized by the system, how can I check or assign that?
[03:42] <LUCIDementia> I think so but I'll try it again
[03:42] <M25> linxeh: that's a good idea
[03:42] <calibre> What does this do? #!/bin/bash
[03:42] <harun> Hi. A a basic linux question. What am I doing wrong? : http://pastebin.com/LwP2RBsf
[03:42] <LUCIDementia> wlan0     No scan results
[03:42] <RudyValencia> Which is better for a server's hostname: only the servername or a FQDN like servername.localdomain.local ?
[03:42] <M25> gonzaloaf: there's a keyboard shortcuts application as well as a keyboard preferences application in your system preferences menu
[03:42] <Izinucs> RudyValencia: call it bilbo
[03:42] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, but what about the tray icon?
[03:43] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> "W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com ..." error whenever i try to install anything
[03:43] <Cynthia> Izinucs: lol. RudyValencia either works well, depending on the needs of your organisation if applicable
[03:43] <M25> Hawaiian_Eskimo: check your firewall settings?
[03:44] <RudyValencia> probably should use the FQDN, like I've done before.
[03:44] <roygbiv> RudyValencia a fully qualified domain is really only important when you are putting a server on the internet, or in a private network with multiple domains. if everything you have is in the same domain then it doesn't matter
[03:44] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> thought ubuntu didn't come with firewall by default
[03:44] <kofian> por que ubuntu-es no funciona?
[03:44] <NightDragon> Harun: just use the numbers when you do chmod
[03:44] <K-19> harun : Use http://ubuntu.pastebin.com looks like nothing is in there...
[03:44] <gonzaloaf> M25, how can that app can help me?
[03:45] <harun> K-19: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/D7ZnwxKD
[03:45] <harun> NightDragon: trying now
[03:45] <M25> gonzaloaf: your keyboard may not be sending the events that ubuntu expects (keyboard preferences app, try different keyboard models) or the keyboard shortcuts may be changed to something else, or unset (keyboard shortcuts)
[03:46] <confucio> hola che
[03:46] <confucio> que tal?
[03:46] <acerimmer> Hawaiian_Eskimo: firewall isn't enabled by default, but is prsent
[03:46] <acerimmer> !es|confucio
[03:46] <LUCIDementia> the tray icon will display wireless networks. I just can't connect to them
[03:46] <linxeh> M25: not what you want, but similar - http://www.tenjin.org/RemotePad/
[03:46] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> it's a fresh install, and i never enabled it. so firewall can't be the problem
[03:46] <K-19> harun :  THE SITE IS IN READ-ONLY MODE AS WE ARE CURRENTLY MOVING HOSTER, SOME PASTES MIGHT BE MISSING FOR A FEW HOURS!
[03:47] <zheng> BugReport: When I install vmware-7.0.1 on Ubuntu-10.04, it works; but after I reboot the Ubuntu-10.04, the vmware program menu disappeared, I must start it from console.
[03:47] <NightDragon> harun: if you are trying to give yourself write access
[03:47] <K-19> harun :  Try Later...
[03:47] <gonzaloaf> M25, but the shortcuts for that purpose are not listed
[03:47] <M25> linxeh: hehehehe, I bought the z2 instead of an ipod touch :p
[03:47] <Flannel> K-19, harun: use paste.ubuntu.com
[03:47] <greezmunkey> K-19: harun there are other pastebins ;)
[03:47] <BitEncrypt> where do i change my desktop theme....i think i click on "software sources" and it change my desktop theme to KDE?????
[03:47] <NightDragon> then its chmod -R 777 /path/to/file (this enables *global write*)
[03:47] <zheng> BugReport: When I install vmware-7.0.1 on Ubuntu-10.04, it works; but after I reboot the Ubuntu-10.04, the vmware program menu disappeared, I must start it from console.
[03:47] <NightDragon> but the command you are probably looking for
[03:47] <NightDragon> is chown
[03:47] <M25> gonzaloaf: have you tried setting up your keyboard as a different model?
[03:47] <NightDragon> chown -R harun:harun /path/to/file
[03:47] <BitEncrypt> everything is diff
[03:48] <gonzaloaf> M25, when I try to set an event with any FN+F7 or F8 doesnt work=, but with FN+any they work
[03:48] <Izinucs> BitEncrypt: on the initial login screen change "sessions" to the one you want
[03:48] <harun> K-19: http://paste.ubuntu.com/436541/
[03:48] <BitEncrypt> so restart
[03:48] <M25> gonzaloaf: what model of computer are you on?
[03:48] <harun> NightDragon: I'm trying to give write access to a group which I'm in.
[03:48] <zheng> BugReport: When I install vmware-7.0.1 on Ubuntu-10.04, it works; but after I reboot the Ubuntu-10.04, the vmware program menu disappeared, I must start it from console.
[03:48] <Izinucs> BitEncrypt: or logout
[03:48] <acerimmer> BitEncrypt: first u have to install the desktop u wnat.  then select it at boot
[03:48] <acerimmer> i mean login
[03:48] <gonzaloaf> M25, for a laptop which one is the correct? I have now Generic 105-key (Intl) PC
[03:49] <gonzaloaf> M25, My computer is a laptop hp dv2842se
[03:49] <Izinucs> zheng: latest vmware typically is managed via firefox and the localhost:port number address assigned to it.. virtualbox is much easier and very robust
[03:49] <maddhat> anyone know how to control fan speed on an x345 running ubuntu server?
[03:49] <K-19> harun :  What are You trying to do..
[03:49] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, okay, and when you go to Menu > System > Administration > Hardware Drivers, does it list anything?
[03:49] <M25> gonzaloaf: that's the generic one, see if any of the models under hewlett-packard brand work
[03:49] <linuxmonster> maddhat, fanspeed
[03:50] <zheng> virutualbox is much slower than vmware, right?
[03:50] <Izinucs> zheng: yes
[03:50] <Izinucs> zheng: sorry.. slower? no
[03:50] <NightDragon> harun... then what you want is 770 for your CHMOD mask
[03:50] <LUCIDementia> Yes. Broadcom B43 wireless driver is enabled.  Broadcom STA wireless driver is installed but disabled
[03:50] <NightDragon> using the octal system for chmod is so much easier if you ask me
[03:51] <andre_francys> how to install zimbra in the ubuntu 10.04    ?
[03:51] <harun> K-19: I'm trying to set the group of a directory and let a group of users r/w/x for that dir.
[03:51] <gonzaloaf> M25, nop, none work
[03:51] <quiescens> the comparative performance of the various virtualization options will depend on the applicable circumstances and is beyond the scope of this document
[03:51] <Izinucs> andre_francys: zimbra site has docs on that.. but it's a resource hog
[03:51] <harun> NightDragon: Is it possible to manage it groups? I really don't want to chown it.
[03:51] <M25> gonzaloaf: huh... if you use compiz you can do a workaround with the Commands plugin
[03:51] <jesus_541> anyone has a link to fix hot keys
[03:51] <gonzaloaf> M25, how come?
[03:52] <K-19> harun :  apt-get install policykit-gnome
[03:52] <Poseidon_99> problem with pidgin
[03:52] <gonzaloaf> M25, I just installed ubuntu 10.04 it is a fresh install
[03:52] <andre_francys> ok tanks
[03:52] <linuxmonster> Poseidon_99,  a bit more info would help
[03:53] <maddhat> linuxmonster: i cant seem to find the "fanspeed" package.. could you point me in the right direction?
[03:53] <harun> K-19: Thanks. I'm ReadingTFM for the last 2 hours and trying everything to make it work with groups.
[03:53] <M25> gonzaloaf: have you tried googling your laptop model along with "brightness keys"?
[03:53] <CoolAcid> Quick question to start - who/which chan would be best suited to kernel patches?
[03:53] <linxeh> maddhat: I think it is called fancontrol
[03:53] <K-19> harun :  sudo polkit-gnome-authorization
[03:54] <harun> K-19: Is it possible to manage read/write access to without extra things just off the box?
[03:54] <linuxmonster> hm I cant find it either but someone mentioned earlier
[03:54] <jesus_541> what is the name of the new ubuntu book
[03:54] <sebsebseb> !manual | jesus_541
[03:54] <unitypunk> hmmmm
[03:55] <unitypunk> i wish tvtime would interlace righttt
[03:55] <maco_> Ubuntu overheats my laptop! =?
[03:55] <Mokee269> wow
[03:55] <Mokee269> really?
[03:55] <jesus_541> thanks should have known
[03:55] <acerimmer> CoolAcid: wouldn't that be a linux chan?
[03:55] <Mokee269> i was devloping on win7 for win7
[03:55] <Mokee269> and fricking turned out to be as bad as windows ALWAYS is
[03:55] <Mokee269> came back to ubuntu now
[03:55] <Mokee269> some weeks ago
[03:55] <Mokee269> and loving it
[03:55] <CoolAcid> acerimmer: yeah maybe, but I was hoping to get a fix in a ubuntu kernel first.. ;)
[03:55] <FloodBot1> Mokee269: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:56] <Mokee269> downside about linux.. configurations, and all the little tic tacs
[03:56] <Mokee269> pros
[03:56] <gonzaloaf> M25, yeah but I found nothing, I found how to create the video_brightness files and how to modified them, but not how to make work my keys
[03:56] <Mokee269> far more efficient, stable, better and just YES
[03:56] <Izinucs> !enter | Mokee269
[03:56] <acerimmer> CoolAcid: i was just reading an article stating dev's go through a kernel selection process for each release.  suggest you check out dev chan's
[03:56] <Mokee269> sorrry... LOL :D I tend to be a chatmonster, and enter is like blinking to me ;)
[03:56] <Scipio> Any one know how to reset audio settings to what they were before installing the latest build?
[03:56] <CoolAcid> acerimmer: which is that?
[03:57] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, try this.
[03:57] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, sorry, busy with other things.
[03:57] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, remove the B43 and enable the STA driver instead.
[03:57] <flan_suse> LUCIDementia, then reboot and see if it helps.
[03:57] <acerimmer> CoolAcid: wait 1 i have a directory somewhere
[03:57] <mkquist> ok this is kinda silly, I downloaded some wallpaper but cant find it, but its being used as my wallpaper... any way to locate it?
[03:57] <ferfactor> if i had a mac and i install ubuntu 10.04 in paralell, why my batery life is consumed faster
[03:58] <LUCIDementia> well...I guess it's worth a shot, but that's something that I have definitely tried before. Which is why it's there
[03:58] <LUCIDementia> I don't know any commands, but I was hoping there is one that would tell us why it isn't letting me connect
[03:58] <CoolAcid> acerimmer: basicly, I have a DVB card thats partly supported - I originally emailed the driver dev but got no where quick.. so trying to figure out the best way to get the support in the kernel - ironicly, its just a PCI device tag in a driver ;)
[03:58] <linux_is_my_hero> once im done reading an entry in the manual, how do i close it (ubuntu server)?
[03:58] <gonzaloaf> Can somebody help me to register the key combinations FN+F7 and FN+F8 in order to make my brightness control work?
[03:58] <vithos> how do i change the console screen resolution in 10.04?
[03:59] <kaell> Having a strange ping problem... http://pastebin.com/wWDcmSdH
[03:59] <acerimmer> CoolAcid: a dev i am not.  Sorry.  Anyway, hope one of the chan's on this directory might work for u.
[03:59] <acerimmer> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList
[03:59] <greezmunkey> linux_is_my_hero: hit the letter q
