[00:00] <kostkon> amer-sa, maybe try netbeans or eclipse
[00:00] <seanscot> im talking shite
[00:00] <seanscot> *embarresed*
[00:00] <andre_pl> I recently had some HDD Problems and had to run a e2fsck -c on my drive to mark the bad blocks, it has been "Updating bad block inode" for well over 36 hours and is now using 700MB of ram. should I be worried?
[00:00] <FloodBot2> seanscot: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:00] <seanscot> forget i spoke
[00:00] <Bigbucks> ...
[00:00] <MatthewBrian> Hi, does anyone know how to make my computer as a Bluetooth headset for my cellphone?
[00:00] <amer-sa> kostkon, thx a lot
[00:01] <kostkon> amer-sa, :)
[00:01] <poseidonpp> BigBucks -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_daemons
[00:01] <mMezquitale> poseidon, the same thing happens to me, log in to your router and look at how routing is set up
[00:01] <ZaNeIuM> when i install ubuntu 9.10 to this drive i always get the message "disk has meny bad sectors" but i dont get that from 9.04 or win7. what could it be?
[00:01] <seanscot> anyone had any joy getting the "seek" to work in rythimbox
[00:03] <seanscot> i dont really want to install VLC when i have a working mp3 player already
[00:03] <siropio> hi , could you provide me a link of a HOW TO get the source code of SORT command?
[00:04] <ElorTegle> Hi there, does anyone have any experience of installing driver for Ati x1400 mobile in ubuntu ?
[00:04] <seanscot> i have 2 questions thats really really bugging me
[00:04] <seanscot> and it makes me have to log into windows which i hate
[00:04] <mMezquitale> !ask|  seanscot
[00:04] <freevryheid> ElorTegle: karmic?
[00:05] <poseidonpp> mMezquitale, what should I be looking for (I"m somewhat clueless when it comes to networking)
[00:05] <ElorTegle> yeah
[00:05] <seanscot> cheers bottu
[00:05] <Azanoth> Hi everyone: If want to upgrade a package - in this case Ruby - do I want to apt-get remove, then apt-get install the new one? Or just apt-get install over the new package? Further, what of dependancies?
[00:05] <seanscot> anyone know how to get the seek to work in rythimbox?
[00:05] <seanscot> anyone use mp3s on ubuntu ?
[00:06] <ElorTegle> So yeah running ATI drivers with x1400 mobile on karmic koala
[00:06] <kaolbrec> seanscot: Mp3s need gstreamer, or libxine
[00:07] <kostkon> seanscot, seek should work just fine in rhythmbox
[00:07] <xtsuname> I'm wondering is there anyone that has a problem using iBus to input Japanese in flash input boxes?
[00:07] <freevryheid> ElorTegle: I believe ati no longer supports drivers for x1400 - see http://tan-com.com/posts/technology/fix-ubuntu-904-ati-driver-issue
[00:07] <kostkon> seanscot, have you installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras packages?
[00:07] <xtsuname> is this a bug?
[00:07] <seanscot> yes
[00:07] <xtsuname> or my settings is off?
[00:07] <seanscot> still doesnt work :(
[00:07] <ElorTegle> Thanks, freevryheid
[00:08] <trism> xtsuname: do you have an example? I want to test it out
[00:08] <kaolbrec> seanscot: gstreamer plugins as well - there a quite a few
[00:08] <kostkon> seanscot, are you trying to play mp3s directly from your mp3 player?
[00:08] <freevryheid> ElorTegle: essentially means downgrading the driver - I have a x1200 and it works OK with the open source driver - much improved over Jaunty
[00:08] <cgaha> hello
[00:08] <xtsuname> trism, I'm using a site called nicovideo.jp I'll try looking for another one
[00:09] <ElorTegle> Are there any downsides to downgrading ?
[00:09] <seanscot> no , from my hard drive
[00:09] <seanscot> but it wont seek
[00:09] <kostkon> seanscot, hmm. strange
[00:10] <fvs> ElorTegle: you'll need to freeze all X upgrades so that they don't overwrite your downgrade
[00:10] <mMezquitale> poseidon, it all depends on your router, you want to take a look at the routing table in your router when it gets all slow, if you type   ¨route¨ in a terminal that is how itś supposed to look like in your router, if you see more than one route then something is wrong, thatś why rrebooting your router fixes the routing table
[00:10] <ElorTegle> Ahh thats good to know
[00:11] <fvs> ElorTegle: what fps are you getting by running glxgears?
[00:11] <Helsinkiii> I am on wifi behind a firewalled router. i want to install a software firewall, but without it interfering with anything..does anyone have tips
[00:11] <electricTape> hey guys.   I'm using Ubuntu.  I need a program for creating and editing PDFs.  What do you guys recomend?
[00:12] <ElorTegle> 5096 frames in 5.0 seconds
[00:12] <xtsuname> trism, http://www.flashdesignerzone.com/tutorials/t1003.php
[00:12] <xtsuname> trism, could you try that out?
[00:12] <edoceo-fluorine> I just updated to 9.10 and now my Google Earth and Lotus Notes applications have empty textbox areas - where there should be text
[00:12] <mMezquitale> !pdf
[00:13] <fvs> electricTape: pdfedit in the repos
[00:13] <mMezquitale> electricTape, looks like evince is high on the charts
[00:13] <edoceo-fluorine> Earlier today this room suggested that I check my video drivers for ATI or Nvidia - which I did ; I'm using an S3 card in my old stinkpad
[00:13] <goedecke> hi
[00:13] <goedecke> any boody know the irc chat in spanish?
[00:13] <fvs> !es
[00:14] <maco> mMezquitale: evince is the default pdf *viewer*
[00:14] <goedecke> tnk
[00:14] <trism> xtsuname: yeah I found another flash app to test it in and it doesn't work, also found a bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/472787 ...since flash isn't open, will probably have to wait for adobe to come up with some sort of fix
[00:14] <mMezquitale> Helsinkiii, if you want to install a software firewall it will not interfere with anything, you will have to learn about iptables though, just install the firewall on your ubuntu box and configure iptables
[00:14] <pc500> The windows installer, it will do the same thing as a CD right (I can use it to repartition and add linux to an etbook withotu a cd drive)?
[00:14] <squarebracket> is there a simple way of disabling my mousepad?
[00:14] <xtsuname> trism, thing is, I can copy and paste it. But I can't type into it
[00:15] <xtsuname> trism, iBus says that it is not a textfield
[00:15] <movela> hello everyone!
[00:15] <movela> need some help please
[00:15] <mMezquitale> !ask| movela
[00:15] <trism> xtsuname: it is probably because ibus hooks into the gtk/qt/x text fields, but flash is creating it's own instead of using one of those, so ibus can't hook into it
[00:15] <ElorTegle> Interesting it seems like my opengl and 3d support is working. However now i should try wine like eve online
[00:15] <trism> xtsuname: but they still support unicode so you can copy/paste just fine
[00:16] <mMezquitale> pc500, can you state the task you are trying to accomplish and what you need help in?
[00:16] <thanasys> coachz: all good now?
[00:16] <fvs> !ask | movela
[00:16] <xtsuname> trism, ah, ic, is there any way around it? I remembered that scim works fine
[00:16] <movela> ok, sorry... anyways i want to make some sticker cd labels. i need a good app. glabel is kind of buggy/slow
[00:16] <trism> xtsuname: did it? unfortunately I couldn't manage to get scim working in karmic, so I don't know if that would be a workaround
[00:16] <movela> any other recomendations
[00:17] <xtsuname> trism, I just installed scim. I'm gonna try if that works

[00:20] <edoceo-fluorine> After my update to Karmic my textboxes show up empty in many applications
[00:21] <Bigbucks> Why does "sudo apt-get php5" not work
[00:21] <kostkon> edoceo-fluorine, try changing your theme
[00:21] <edoceo-fluorine> Just blank - cannot highlight or anything, menus are OK, dialogs are OK but these textoxen are fail
[00:21] <edoceo-fluorine> ha - lag -
[00:21] <Bigbucks> this is the error I get when I try to install PHP5
[00:21] <Bigbucks> http://paste.ubuntu.com/326487/
[00:22] <kostkon> Bigbucks, it's sudo apt-get install php5
[00:22] <exco> I seriously need to go to bed ... but grub2 doesn't let me go ;-)
[00:22] <mrken1> Help: sound just stopped working Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit
[00:22] <exco> so what could it be if instead of booting Windows 7 grub 2 just sends me back to grub2?
[00:23] <jasonmchristos> hi guys im out right now and my computer at home has ssh how o i forward vnc port to here
[00:23] <Bigbucks> well, thats what I put in terminal
[00:23] <ZaNeIuM> my win7 install is no longer able to boot, from my grub2 menu, but i can still boot ubuntu. if i chooise to 'fix' my issue with the win7 setup disk, you you think i will loose my ability to boot to ubuntu??
[00:23] <mMezquitale> mrken1, was it working before and then it stopped working?
[00:23] <Bigbucks> And I get this error
[00:23] <Bigbucks> http://paste.ubuntu.com/326487/
[00:23] <coachz^> How can i tell if my wireless is set to turn on at boot up
[00:23] <uberspaced> if I installed ubuntu server and lxde, what other packages do I have to install in order to get a graphical wireless network configuration tool available?
[00:23] <jasonmchristos> how do i tell it to forward the port
[00:23] <thanasys> Bigbucks: try updating you repo
[00:23] <kostkon> Bigbucks, try selecting a different server, in system → admin → software sources
[00:24] <seanscot> is it possible to default the config of rythimbox?
[00:24] <jasonmchristos> to get remote desktop through ssh
[00:24] <Bigbucks> how do I update it?
[00:24] <thanasys> BigBucks current version is 4.2
[00:24] <mMezquitale> ZaNeIuM, can you run grub-probe and grub-update to fix that?
[00:24] <uberspaced> jasonmchristos, are you asking about port forwarding via ssh?
[00:24] <thanasys> Bigbucks: sudo apt-get update
[00:24] <uberspaced> (i just joined)
[00:24] <Bigbucks> Oh and kostkon It is server
[00:24] <exco> ZaNeIuM: quite possible ... I just ran through it and still can't boot win 7 ... but grub2 is still there
[00:24] <jasonmchristos> ys
[00:24] <kostkon> Bigbucks, oh
[00:24] <mMezquitale> jasonjang, can you post your question in a single line?
[00:24] <CountDeMonet> hey, im having a display issue that i need some help with
[00:25] <mMezquitale> jasonmchristos, can you post your question in a single line?
[00:25] <uberspaced> jasonmchristos, there's ssh -L, which is handy
[00:25] <ZaNeIuM> mMezquitale even with grub2? do i do that from the live cd?
[00:25] <pc500> Ok I just ran the window installer and it just boots to sh:GRUB  nothign.
[00:25] <jasonmchristos> uberspaced: how do i forward a port on ssh to view vino server through ssh
[00:25] <CountDeMonet> certain windows in gnome aren't rendered properly, they're shown as black with some garbled images
[00:25] <ZaNeIuM> exco: what happened?
[00:26] <edoceo-fluorine> well, changing theme didn't help :*(
[00:26] <uberspaced> ssh -L LOCAL_PORT:relay_to_ip:relay_to_port user@remote_host
[00:26] <squarebracket> is there a way to increase the timeout for mousepad disabling during timing?
[00:26] <exco> I might have installed grub2 into the Win7 partition instead of the mbr ...
[00:26] <Drunkpunk> is there still a beginners group for ubuntu?
[00:26] <mMezquitale> ZaNeIuM, no, once youre inside ubuntu if you see win7 as an option but it doesnt boot you can try logging in to ubuntu then probe and update grub, if not you can use chainloader to boot win7 or add another line in grub config to boot up win7 correctly
[00:27] <uberspaced> what extra packages do I need to install to get a graphical wireless network configuration tool if I've just installed ubuntu server and lxde?
[00:27] <fladd> can anyone tell me where gnome-terminal profiles are saved? it is not in ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles. But where is it then?
[00:27] <exco> ZaNeIuM: I'm now going back to grub-pc since I know how to configure it
[00:27] <Bigbucks> thanks man, the nstall worked now
[00:27] <fvs> CountDeMonet: what happens when you disable visual effects under Preferences | Appearance menu?
[00:27] <uberspaced> Drunkpunk, there's lots of documentation available.
[00:27] <uberspaced> what would you like to know?
[00:28] <Bigbucks> now, how do I run a php file with it?
[00:28] <edoceo-fluorine> is possible to do the down-grade from 9.10 to 9.04?
[00:29] <mMezquitale> !paste
[00:29] <CountDeMonet> fvs: they're not enabled
[00:29] <Drunkpunk> uberspaced: thanx, just curious really, only discovered IRC yesterday and had some help on here earlier but realised i had v steep learning curve ahead !
[00:29] <thanasys> Bigbucks: good one man...sorry can't help you there
[00:29] <jasonmchristos> uberspaced: first of all what ports do i open on the router of the host
[00:29] <uberspaced> Drunkpunk, chances are you need a good Linux tutorial
[00:29] <Toshiba> I just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my Toshiba Satellite A205 S5852 laptop and I don't have any wireless. I looked in hardware drivers and didn't see any proprietary drivers in there. Can someone help me get my wireless working?
[00:29] <uberspaced> jasonmchristos, if you're asking that then you need to learn more about networking.
[00:29] <exco> wish me luck
[00:30] <jasonmchristos> ssh
[00:30] <uberspaced> jasonmchristos, port forwarding via ssh is a pretty basic thing
[00:30] <jasonmchristos> port 23
[00:30] <uberspaced> ssh is port 22 by default
[00:30] <Drunkpunk> uberspaced:: any suggestions much appreciated
[00:30] <edoceo-fluorine> what else would cause my textboxes to render empty ?
[00:30] <uberspaced> but you can relay local port 4000 to another ip's 22 via ssh
[00:30] <CooPs89> what prevents someone from SSH'ing into my server using the account "mail" or "news" or "deamon" etc
[00:30] <uberspaced> so you have to choose the ports
[00:30] <CountDeMonet> Toshiba: google windows wireless drivers for linux
[00:30] <uberspaced> CooPs89, check their shell
[00:31] <uberspaced> CooPs89, check their entry in /etc/shadow
[00:31] <uberspaced> chances are they'll have no password (which you shouldn't be able to log into remotely with)
[00:31] <uberspaced> or a shell like /bin/false
[00:31] <CooPs89> ah
[00:31] <uberspaced> or the like
[00:31] <Toshiba> CountDeMonet, I tried that but couldn't find anything helpful for ubuntu
[00:31] <CooPs89> so all users with a password in shadow can log in?
[00:31] <atril_> hi
[00:31] <uberspaced> CooPs89, man sshd_config
[00:31] <atril_> I have question about netcat. I try to use "port redirection" like : nc -l -p 80 | nc irc.freenode.org 6667 | nc -b -l -p 80 but this doesn't work, The case is that if I use "nc -l -p 80 -c "nc irc.freenode.org 6667" works. Does anyone why the first method doens't work ?

[00:36] <cafree> it's causing more problems than it's worth, I think
[00:36] <uberspaced> cafree, there is a directory called .cryptfs or something in /home
[00:36] <uberspaced> remove that
[00:36] <cafree> I'd like to get out of it while I still can
[00:36] <cafree> is that it?
[00:37] <uberspaced> then change the permissions on your home dir to 755 for the user
[00:37] <uberspaced> there are also cryptfs scripts in /etc/init.d/ which you can turn off via update-rc.d
[00:37] <uberspaced> and stop the crypt services, reboot.
[00:37] <uberspaced> that's what I had to do...

[00:41] <CooPs89> i see that my www-data account has a password (probably set by mistake), and some accounts have null passwords (meaning the only thing preventing someone from logging in with them is the SSH configuration that blocks blank passwords), can I modify this file directly?
[00:41] <snkcld> hiii
[00:41] <jasonmchristos> ?uberspaced: so local port i pick randomly but whats remote host the computer i am on or the one with the ssh server
[00:41] <CooPs89>  /etc/shadow that is
[00:41] <danny_> I mean while its running it shows up like the pidgin one does I actuadently deleted the little envelope icon that was there
[00:42] <uberspaced> CooPs89, man usermod
[00:42] <uberspaced> has a disabled option
[00:42] <uberspaced> OR you can put a * whatever in the passwd hash in /etc/shadow
[00:42] <g1er> here's an easy one.. how to disable visable joins/parts in irssi?
[00:42] <jrib> !quietirssi | g1er
[00:42] <CooPs89> uberspaced: yea, was thinking of doing that,
[00:42] <coachz> rebooting :-)
[00:42] <lstarnes> CooPs89: sudo passwd -l username
[00:42] <g1er> !quietirssi
[00:42] <danny_> any idea
[00:43] <randomusr> how can I check if limewire daemon is running?
[00:43] <CooPs89> lstarnes: yeah, or that, thanks
[00:43] <Drunkpunk> drunkpunk: sorry dude, just a n00b tryin to be helpful, not sure beyond that
[00:43] <uberspaced> jasonmchristos, not following
[00:43] <CooPs89> locking an account wont prevent the system from using it, right? (mysql isn't locked for instance)
[00:43] <Drunkpunk> lol i mean danny
[00:43] <uberspaced> randabis, ps waux |grep wire       maaaaaaybe
[00:44] <lstarnes> CooPs89: or you could give it a blank password
[00:44] <Bilz> when i installed ubuntu, i made my swap partition a primary partition, and the ubuntu partition on a primary partition is an extended partition. anyway i mvoe the swap partition over into the extended partition?
[00:44] <lstarnes> CooPs89: the usual method is to set its login shell to /bin/false
[00:44] <CooPs89> locking it feels safer thank blanking
[00:44] <CountDeMonet> are there any known issues with the radeon 7500 and ubuntu
[00:44] <danny_> What is that little envelope icon called when you where the clock and wireless is etc...
[00:44] <g1er> great thanks
[00:44] <CooPs89> nice, will try that
[00:44] <maco> danny_: message indicator
[00:44] <uberspaced> Bilz, you can create a file on the extended partition and mkswap it
[00:45] <danny_> How do I set it up
[00:45] <danny_> maco
[00:45] <g1er> much better now
[00:45] <jasonmchristos> this isnt working ssh -L <IP_ADDRESS>:5950:<IP_ADDRESS>:5900<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:45] <nickkontos> Hello again:) I can see my shares in my "Home" pc with "smbclient -L Home" and "smbtree" but i cant see them with nautilus :s I did't have this problem with 9.04...
[00:45] <exco> ok so now I know: I accidentally installed grub2 to /dev/sda2 instead of /dev/sda ... "§$@!
[00:46] <exco> is that fixable?
[00:46] <Bilz> uberspaced, can i extend the extended partition, since it only contains my ubuntu install, and thats the entire partition
[00:46]  * edoceo-fluorine has to downgrade back to 9.04 - looks like 9.10 is not ready for business use
[00:46] <myk_robinson> test
[00:46] <claw_> geht
[00:46] <claw_> works
[00:46] <ChogyDan1> exco: what did you overwrite?
[00:46] <progre55> hi guys! I'm running eclipse(3.5.1) on ubuntu koala(9.10). when I open Help> Install New Software> and I choose "work with" galileo or any other source, but the contents are not shown on the screen below. but when I click on the random places, the details screen shows the details. So it's just that the text is not displayed. Any suggestions, please?
[00:46] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, what issue are you having
[00:47] <uberspaced> Bilz, what you're asking to do is relatively complicated and I can not guarentee there will be no data loss.
[00:47] <uberspaced> you may need to read up on resize2fs and screw around with fdisk or something
[00:47] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: certain windows in gnome are garbled/displayed incorrectly
[00:47] <jasonmchristos> im getting: channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 5950
[00:47] <exco> ChogyDan1: I think Windows 7's bootloader in /dev/sda2
[00:47] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: visual effects are off
[00:47] <Bilz> ahh your kidding... it took me so dam long to set this up :'(! cheers
[00:47] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, what version of ubuntu are you running
[00:48] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: 9.10
[00:48] <coachz> that worked,  thanks a lot guys !
[00:48] <Bilz> uberspaced, is it possible to backup my system completely, format, and then simply "copy" everything back onto my new partition, or will something break?
[00:48] <ChogyDan1> exco: well, it is probably not fixable.  You probably need to recover the windows boot loader with windows tools  :(
[00:48] <uberspaced> Bilz, ideally when you "back something up" it allows you to recover from something breaking
[00:48] <TheDude1> hello
[00:49] <uberspaced> if you copy everything off, and then repartition and copy everything back, I don't see what could go "wrong"
[00:49] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, do you have fglrx installed ?
[00:49] <exco> ChogyDan1: I tried the boot recovery from the Seven setup CD - that detects the Seven installation, but doesn't fix the boot record
[00:49] <ald85> español?
[00:49] <lstarnes> !es | ald85
[00:49] <TheDude1> having an issue installing google sketchup 7.0 in the latest Wine
[00:49] <cafree> uberspaced, my swap is encrypted too, how do I get rid of that?
[00:49] <ald85> thanks
[00:49] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, sorry do you have it installed correctly?
[00:49] <uberspaced> cafree, now I don't know about encrypted swap set up automatically for you
[00:49] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: not sure, the install configed it for me
[00:50] <ChogyDan1> exco: so windows no longer boots?
[00:50] <uberspaced> so you're on your own for that.  maybe check /etc/fstab and see where swap is being mounted
[00:50] <uberspaced> maybe it's under /dev/mapper, but who knows.
[00:50] <TheDude1> having an issue installing google sketchup 7.0 in the latest Wine
[00:50] <hcook> hey guys. i'm having trouble installing 8.04 LTS server for AMD64 on a fairly new Dell T105. The installer says it can't mount the cdrom. I had this problem a couple months ago and (according to the post-it I wrote at the time) fixed it by adding 'sata_nv.adma=0' to the boot line (F6 at the bootloader) ...but now when I add that It says, "Unknown option sata.nv.adma=0, ignoring"
[00:50] <Bilz> uberspaced, to be honest my whole set up the partitions is a complete mess. my knowledge of it isnt that great, but i can see that after playing around with the partitions my /dev/sda3 will go to sda2 or sda2, and my linux-swap partition will change etc. its that the worries me mainly
[00:50] <exco> ChogyDan1: no, I can now boot from grub in /dev/sda to grub in /dev/sda2 where it was previously booting win :-(
[00:51] <uberspaced> Bilz, then why don't you just reinstall everything and have the automatic partitioner in the install process take care of that for you?
[00:51] <blacky> I'm trying to use lftp to upload a folder to my ftp server. I'm logging into the ftp server just fine, I cd into the directory I want. Now--I want to upload recursively my folder on my local machine named 2009. I do: mput 2009/ . # bu tnothing happens
[00:51] <blacky> any ideas?
[00:51] <Bigbucks> I installed PHPMyAdmin to my server
[00:51] <Bigbucks> How do I get to it
[00:51] <Bigbucks> through a webbrowser
[00:51] <uberspaced> blacknred0, mput 2009/* . ??
[00:51] <randomusr> does the which command take wildcards in the variable strings?
[00:51] <ChogyDan1> exco: have you tried running the windows recovery command?
[00:52] <blacky> uberspaced, nope
[00:52] <blacky> :(
[00:52] <Bilz> uberspaced, it took a lot of hard work to get everything on the laptop :| and workng right. maybe ill get rid of the linux swap for a bit and try to back up and install ubuntu in there, and if its successful ill just reformat completely and hope for the best. but, there is no easy way for me to do what imj asking this
[00:52] <exco> ChogyDan1: like in XP?
[00:52] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: just installed it via synaptic
[00:52] <Bardology> Good morning :)
[00:52] <CooPs89> it's funny how /etc/passwd doesn't contain any passwords lol, historic naming convention ftw
[00:52] <mrken1> Help: sound just stopped working after reboot: Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit running through Onkyo receiver after running rhythmbox last time for the first time.
[00:52] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: any config required to make sure it works/
[00:52] <Xodiac> i need help on being put in the right direction for a program that will have like a virtual keyboard because my laptop numbers dont work
[00:52] <uberspaced> Bilz, you need to read about it and get good at it.  I can not guarentee that my advice won't screw you up.
[00:52] <exco> ChogyDan1: I only tried the automated recovery from the Win 7 CD ... don't know of a different way - but will ask google
[00:53] <McLovin> can you look in package manager for fglrx and see if the fglrx all the appropriate packages are installed
[00:53] <Bigbucks> How do I get to PHPMyAdmin?
[00:53] <AgentBlair> hello, I have a harddrive I cannot access anymore. right now im running ubuntu off the cd and it gives me an error. this used to be my main hard drive that I ran ubuntu off of but it never boots anymore
[00:53] <ChogyDan1> exco: it used to be foxmbr in XP.  IT is different for windows 7.  I don't know what it is.  You will likely have to recover grub2 afterwords
[00:53] <MoeGreen> anybody know why after upgrading to 9.10 all the videos i watch in vlc the colors are way off normal?
[00:53] <lstarnes> Bigbucks: try http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[00:53] <Taim> hcook: You try "adma=0"?
[00:53] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, once everything is installed it should work without further config
[00:53] <uberspaced> AgentBlair, as root, fdisk -l.  If the partition doesn't show up on the drive, you're hosed.
[00:54] <AgentBlair> cmd prompt>
[00:54] <Bigbucks> does not work
[00:54] <hcook> taim, sure did, as well as 'options sata_nv adma=0' and 'options adma=0'
[00:54] <AgentBlair> it shows up, I have two partitions that show up in the explorer
[00:54] <Xodiac> my keyboard numbers dont work is there a program to install like a virtual keyboard
[00:54] <lstarnes> Bigbucks: did you restart apache2?
[00:54] <exco> ChogyDan1: I don't have a problem recovering grub ... but I think I might not be able to recover the system from what I've done ;-)
[00:54] <seidos> when i type pgrep gnome-power-manager no pid is listed, but when i type ps aux | grep gnome-power-manager it is displayed
[00:54] <Bigbucks> I can
[00:54] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: ok cool. its finishing the install now. im guessing a restart of X is required?
[00:54] <randomusr> if I want to find the path for a binary/executable but I don't know the full name, how can I attempt to find it?
[00:54] <uberspaced> seidos, shorten your pgrep to something like "pgrep gnome-pow"
[00:55] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, once everything is installed just do a restart and you should be on your way
[00:55] <uberspaced> and see if it shows up.  you may be running into a character limit on length of process name for that program.
[00:55] <CountDeMonet> McLovin: thanks. ill let you know if it went well
[00:55] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, ill still be on here after your restart if it does or does not work
[00:55] <seidos> uberspaced: that worked. weird
[00:55] <mrken1> Please help: sound just stopped working after reboot: Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit running through Onkyo receiver. problem started after running rhythmbox last time for the first time (which was fine) and then rebooting (which included file check).

[01:01] <Recursive> I can't figure out how to install the sun-java6-jdk package. When I try Synaptic, it inexplicably fails, and when I try using the terminal (aptitude), it pops up with this license agreement and for the life of me I can't figure out how to press the "Ok" button.

[01:01] <uberspaced> luist, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[01:01] <lstarnes> Bigbucks: the command that you used should work
[01:01] <knoppies> Recursive, you tired y? and you might have to pagedown until the very end, then hit y or enter or something
[01:01] <ChogyDan1> Recursive: probably the tab key
[01:01] <Bigbucks> good, then why does PHP not work
[01:01] <bazhang> Recursive, tab to it
[01:01] <lstarnes> Bigbucks: but you would need to restart apache first
[01:01] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, in bash enter lspci and use pastebin.com to show me the output
[01:02] <Bigbucks> 'I did
[01:02] <McLovin> CountDeMonet, or terminal

[01:02] <Bigbucks> I  even restarted the whole server
[01:02] <jrib> Bigbucks: did you read the link I had ubottu give you before?
[01:02] <lstarnes> Bigbucks: then what happens when you go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ on the server?
[01:02] <luist> uberspaced, are you sure its not network-tools or network-connections?
[01:02] <uberspaced> luist, and so you can't run: sudo network-admin ?
[01:02] <Amigadude> Bigbucks: what you trying to get running PHP or MySQL?
[01:02] <luist> uberspaced, not found too
[01:02] <uberspaced> sorry if I gave you the wrong command.

[01:17] <iMatter> max__: But I need one that can edit disks, need to do something special to a partition so it will boot a recovery console cant find a ubuntu equivilent of TinyHex that let's you open disks erUSUL
[01:17] <uberspaced> contains user's home directories.
[01:17] <saruji> uberspaced, /etc/passwd what do I do there?
[01:17] <erUSUL> saruji: there at least two very good how tos in internet. search for "ubuntu move home own partition"
[01:17] <uberspaced> saruji, look for /home/USERNAME
[01:18] <uberspaced> and change /home/USERNAME to /big_partition/username or whatever.
[01:18] <kaell> so, i've got this laptop, and if i do the following, the wireless works....    rmmod ssb; rmmod bcm43xx; modprobe bcm43xx
[01:18] <manug2> dksoba ucsd? =D
[01:18] <bazhang> !home
[01:18] <kaell> what changes do i need to make on the filessystem so i dont have to type this every time i start linux?
[01:18] <kaell> i already have blacklist ssb in my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file
[01:19] <saruji> uberspaced, thank you erUSUL sorry my braid wasnt putting together the key words so I just kept getting to places I didnt want, will search using those, thank you
[01:20] <ray66> I have a canonical live cd of Karmic 9.10 ...I do not want to install on my harddrive at this time ...When I load as live cd and make changes...Can I use remastersys to make a dvd of the system after the changes.
[01:20] <dksoba> manug2, not sure how you figured that out...my hostname? But yes
[01:20] <erUSUL> saruji: this ones uses gui programs for most things http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome screenshots and all
[01:20] <git__> ray66, no
[01:21] <dksoba> manug2, do you know how ext3 handles large amounts of files?
[01:21] <manug2> dksoba -- when people login to channel it shows their isp (mine is ucsd too)
[01:21] <ray66> git_ That was short and sweet  thanks
[01:21] <manug2> dksoba -- what do you mean large amounts of files? like, how fast it is?
[01:21] <saruji> erUSUL, thanks
[01:21] <mcurran> So is the default ubuntu help server irc.ubuntu.com or the freenode one?
[01:22] <maco> mcurran: its all the same
[01:22] <erUSUL> mcurran: both are the same irc network (freenode)
[01:22] <lstarnes> mcurran: irc.ubuntu.com points to freenode
[01:22] <dksoba> manug2, we have too many files on our cluster... they're all small but there's too many of them
[01:22] <cjibo> msg NickServer IDENTITY Tub204yib848
[01:22] <dksoba> manug2, I think
[01:22] <dksoba> manug2, what are you doing at ucsd?
[01:22] <erUSUL> cjibo: change your password
[01:22] <manug2> dksoba -- i'm a grad student, but i don't think i can answer your question
[01:22] <mcurran> Yeah, I had pidgin setup for ubuntu channel but then it wouldn't let me connect through xchat unless I disabled the account in pidgin, even though I didn't enter a channel on pidgin yet
[01:22] <lstarnes> cjibo: /msg nickserv help set password
[01:22] <erUSUL> cjibo: everybody has seen it and is logged
[01:23] <manug2> dksoba -- i have office hours right now but i'm bored, so i'm watching irc...
[01:23] <mcurran> Anyone know how to get hydra to work on karmic with ssh
[01:23] <lstarnes> mcurran: only one user may use a particular nick at a time
[01:24] <lstarnes> mcurran: you will need to specify alternate nicks in xchat for it to use in case it cannot use the main nick
[01:24] <mcurran> that's what I figured
[01:24] <miles95> hello
[01:24] <cjibo> erUSUL did
[01:25] <adminewb> looking for disaster recovery help; are there better channels for than here for a trashed extended partition table?
[01:25] <cjibo> silly channel opened up before I was done identifying hehe
[01:25] <saruji> uberspaced, I found the /etc/passwd file and see the /home/myusername it reads "sergei:x:1000:1000:Sergei,,,:/home/sergei:/bin/bash" what should I do with these? erUSUL that link talks about having installed without a /home/username install, which I have already done with the username
[01:25] <mocsrox> can anyone help me sync my date to a timeserver?
[01:25] <mocsrox> running 8.10
[01:26] <erUSUL> saruji: you do not have to touch /etc/passwd
[01:26] <mocsrox> installed ntp ntpdate... but still displays the wrong date, when >date
[01:26] <penguinix> can someone help me install nvclock? probbaly best via pm
[01:26] <git__> mocsrox, your timezone might be wrong
[01:26] <mocsrox> bah.. nvm.. FYI.. just run >sudo ntpd
[01:26] <Ben64> penguinix: sudo apt-get install nvclock
[01:26] <Billiard> penguinix: apt-get install nvclock  ?
[01:27] <mcurran> how do you enter another channel while keeping this one open
[01:27] <lstarnes> mcurran: /join #other-channel
[01:27] <mocsrox> git__: yea i made sure it was correct.. just needed to run >ntpd from the prompt
[01:27] <saruji> erUSUL, sorry I am naivly thinking that all I would have to do is change the path in there, do you still think I should follow the posted how to?  I am just a little uneasy as so far I have a "perfect build" for me that is
[01:27] <Pretto> is there a way to use apt through Socks proxy?
[01:28] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[01:28] <erUSUL> saruji: is up to you. if you are not sure do not do it
[01:29] <Billiard> saruji: what are you trying to do?
[01:29] <saruji> Billiard, change the HD assigned to my /home partition
[01:29] <Billiard> saruji: just mount a different partiton to /home
[01:29] <uberspaced> saruji, /etc/fstab
[01:30] <uberspaced> saruji, you were asking for something different before.
[01:30] <hedkandi> can anyone tell me why I have three keyrings?
[01:30] <AlexMax> Hi there, I'm having an issue with installing Ubuntu 9.10 on my Lenovo T500.  The wireless works fine on the Live CD, but as soon as I boot into my OS it refuses to work....it sees my wireless networks but takes forever to connect and then...doesn't actually connect.
[01:30] <AlexMax> I have to use eithernet
[01:30] <hedkandi> one is called default, one is session and the other called login
[01:30] <saruji> uberspaced, what do you mean? Billiard I dont quite know how to do that, or what you mean
[01:30] <saruji> Billiard, how can I mount a partition to a directory/
[01:31] <Billiard> saruji: you have a partition created where you want home already?
[01:31] <hedkandi> mount -t ntfs dirname
[01:31] <uberspaced> saruji, man /etc/fstab
[01:31] <davebs> Can anyone tell me how to check if a kernel option is enabled on my kernel?
[01:31] <saruji> Billiard, yes
[01:31] <Billiard> saruji: do you have it mounted somewhere currently?
[01:31] <erUSUL> davebs: cat /proc/cmdline
[01:31] <uberspaced> saruji, crap
[01:31] <uberspaced> mount fstab
[01:31] <uberspaced> crap
[01:31] <saruji> Billiard, yes
[01:31] <uberspaced> man fstab
[01:31] <uberspaced> i'm full of it tonight, man.
[01:31] <Billiard> saruji: where do you have it mounted currently?
[01:31] <Billiard> saruji: and how
[01:32] <adminewb> disaster recovery anyone?
[01:32] <hedkandi> my fstab doesn't contain any mounting for the benefit of ecryptfs
[01:32] <erUSUL> !undelete | adminewb
[01:32] <hedkandi> and I have an automatically mounted directory
[01:32] <hedkandi> so how does that work?
[01:32] <g__> hello whenever I plug in my headphones in my laptop my speakers make this super annoying click every 20 seconds
[01:32] <davebs> erUSUL: i'm sorry, maybe that's the wrong name for it, specifically i'm trying to see if multiroute caching is enabled in my kernel and if not, how to enable it
[01:32] <uberspaced> hedkandi, are you useing autofs?
[01:33] <hedkandi> uberspaced: I dunno
[01:33] <uberspaced> davebs, look in /proc/net for a file similar to that.
[01:33] <davebs> cool, thank you
[01:33] <g__> hello whenever I plug in my headphones in my laptop my speakers make this super annoying click every 20 seconds it never used to do this before on any other versions of ubuntu as I am using the latest one.  I have an hda nvidia chipset with pulse audio now frontlining everything
[01:33] <erUSUL> davebs: you mean the kernel config ? look into /boot/config-$(uname -r)
[01:33] <uberspaced> hedkandi, what specifically is the problem?
[01:34] <g__> I've looked all over and no one has this specific instance of the problem
[01:34] <SeaPhor> ummm, just got 9.10... where did the menu.lst go?
[01:34] <uberspaced> SeaPhor, new grub :(
[01:34] <hedkandi> I want to disable the auto-mounting of my ecrypt filesystem
[01:34] <Billiard> SeaPhor: grub2 doesnt have menu.lst
[01:34] <hedkandi> I dunno how it operates
[01:34] <uberspaced> hedkandi, there is /etc/init.d/*crypt*
[01:34] <uberspaced> and also /home/.ecryptfs or something
[01:35] <davebs> erusul: i think so, i'll take a look at that, i think i'm probably in over my head messing w/ the kernel, but i guess it's a good time to learn...
[01:35] <uberspaced> if you remove /home/.ecryptfs/username and chmod 755 /home/username
[01:35] <saruji> Billiard, hmm when I right click-> properties it reads "on the desktop" and folder "inode/directory", it was mounted automagically by attempting to view its content
[01:35] <arooni_____> i am trying to enable 3rd button emulation (by hitting left & right buttons simulataneously) i followed: http://www.pubbs.net/samba/200904/59839/  but it still doesnt work ideas?
[01:35] <uberspaced> along with stopping those daemons and running update-rc.d to remove them it should stop the encryption.
[01:35] <SeaPhor> ok,,, how do i get the "pae" kernel?
[01:35] <Billiard> saruji: ok so its not mounted automatically on boot, you will want to add an entry to your fstab so it is
[01:35] <hedkandi> nothing in etc/init.d
[01:36] <saruji> Billiard, ok I know how to do that...I think
[01:36] <uberspaced> hedkandi, ls /etc/init.d/*crypt*
[01:36] <saruji> Billiard, but the content of my /home/username will be there?
[01:36] <ungu_cliquers> hiuyiuho
[01:36] <Billiard> saruji: copy over your current home directory first, at least i would
[01:36] <erUSUL> SeaPhor: server kernel is pae. but isd better to use 64 bits
[01:36] <hedkandi> uberspaced: what are you saying?
[01:36] <saruji> Billiard, ok
[01:36] <Billiard> saruji: copy each username directory into the root of the partition that you want to be your /home
[01:36] <uberspaced> hedkandi, are you using a terminal for any of this or what?
[01:36] <saruji> Billiard, ok
[01:37] <uberspaced> pointy clickie?
[01:37] <Billiard> saruji: use a command that keeps the permissions the same
[01:37] <hedkandi> uberspaced, yes
[01:37] <SeaPhor> erUSUL, can i get the pae fort the 32 bit?
[01:37] <saruji> Billiard, you mean use a command to keep the permissions the same?
[01:37] <cjibo> I am trying to get my Acer camera to work on karmic
[01:37] <hedkandi> ls | grep crypt
[01:37] <uberspaced> press alt+f2, then type "gnome-terminal", then hit enter.  then type "ls /etc/init.d/*crypt*"
[01:37] <cjibo> is there a trick it worked on UNR
[01:37] <erUSUL> SeaPhor: yes use the server kernl as already told you.
[01:37] <hedkandi> with the stars?
[01:37] <saruji> Billiard, you mean use a command to keep the permissions the same, command for moving you mean?
[01:37] <Billiard> saruji: isnt that what i said?
[01:37] <uberspaced> hedkandi, yes, with the stars.
[01:37] <Billiard> saruji: yeah
[01:38] <g__> hello whenever I plug in my headphones in my laptop my speakers make this super annoying click every 20 seconds it never used to do this before on any other versions of ubuntu as I am using the latest one.  I have an hda nvidia chipset with pulse audio now frontlining everything
[01:38] <hedkandi> ok wildcards.
[01:38] <hedkandi> But I did a grep
[01:38] <saruji> Billiard, sorry, yea, what is the command?
[01:38] <AlexMax> Hey there, I'm having an issue with my Lenovo T500 on linux.  My wireless networking worked fine when the Live CD was in, but now that I have it installed I can't connect to my wireless network
[01:38] <Billiard> saruji: id have to look it up, not sure if cp can do it rsync can
[01:38] <hedkandi> nothing, like I said
[01:38] <hedkandi> no such file
[01:38] <uberspaced> hedkandi, what version of ubuntu are you on?
[01:38] <saruji> Billiard, so if I apt-get rsync i should be able to right?
[01:38] <hedkandi> karpet
[01:39] <uberspaced> what the hell is that? numbers, man.
[01:39] <uberspaced> lsb_release -a
[01:39] <hedkandi> Linux william-laptop 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:39] <saruji> Billiard, what should I do after I do that?
[01:39] <uberspaced> ok, still doesn't tell me ANYTHING about your version of ubuntu.
[01:39] <hedkandi> Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
[01:39] <Billiard> saruji: i think rsync is default, there is a flag to preserve permissions
[01:39] <hedkandi> I think they've given up on init.d haven't they
[01:40] <hedkandi> they are using services now
[01:40] <hedkandi> or something
[01:40] <uberspaced> hedkandi, and you really don't have anything under /etc/init.d/ that's named like "crypt" or something?
[01:40] <manug2> yeah
[01:40] <uberspaced> hedkandi, no, they havent.
[01:40] <SeaPhor> erUSUL, but how do i get just the kernel? open the iso? download the same 2.6.31-14-pae from kernel.org and compile it? do you know a better way? plz help i want to do this the right way
[01:40] <uberspaced> bah.  I gtg.
[01:40] <Billiard> saruji: and flags for preserving username and group
[01:40] <hedkandi> no really
[01:41] <erUSUL> SeaPhor: sudo aptitude install linux-image-server
[01:41] <geirha> saruji: sudo rsync -a /home/* /mnt/newhome/
[01:41] <erUSUL> !info linux-image-server | SeaPhor
[01:41] <kostkon> g__, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/442463/comments/4
[01:42] <geirha> saruji: -av if you want it to print the files as it copies them.
[01:42] <hedkandi> anyway, does anyone know what the login keyring is for?
[01:42] <hedkandi> I think it's the way the login is implemented.
[01:42] <hedkandi> I think the system will allow you to login if the gnome-keyring-daemon grants access to the login keyring
[01:42] <hedkandi> I reckon that's why it's there.
[01:43] <saruji> geirha, thank you, what is in /mnt/newhome/ dir?  Is that where my new drive should be then?
[01:43] <SeaPhor> Thank you erUSUL
[01:43] <Billiard> saruji: thats where you have it temporarly mounted, its probably in /media
[01:43] <geirha> saruji: Replace it with the path to where the new partition is mounted
[01:43] <erUSUL> saruji: why do not you follow the step by step instructions i've given you ?
[01:43] <erUSUL> saruji: this ones uses gui programs for most things http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome screenshots and all
[01:44] <CountDeMonet> how do i get x to run in 16 bit instead of 24/32 in 9.10?
[01:44] <saruji> erUSUL, I dont trust it, as it read that it is for those who did not create a /home directory when installing
[01:44] <erUSUL> saruji: exactly your case. you did not created a separate home parition when installing
[01:44] <saruji> erUSUL, I know probably sounds stupid but i'm a nooob
[01:45] <manug2> test
[01:45] <erUSUL> saruji: but apparently you know better ...
[01:45] <erUSUL> ok
[01:45] <hedkandi> what's .bash_profile?
[01:45] <saruji> erUSUL, no I didnt, no no, i just read it different
[01:45] <mcurran> Are there any other useful tools in terminal like (Ctrl I)
[01:45] <erUSUL> hedkandi: one of the two conf files of bash
[01:45] <pc400> I did the windows installer and it rebooted; ran through the install process; but then when I try to start Ubuntu it just shows SH: Grub
[01:45] <mcurran> Just found that today, man was I missing out
[01:46] <saruji> erUSUL, let me try what these guys are saying and I'll give that site a go if this doesnt pan out
[01:46] <hedkandi> I can't find my bash_profile
[01:46] <erUSUL> hedkandi: ~/.profile
[01:46] <pc400> Should I just burn a CD this time and reinstall?
[01:46] <Billiard> hedkandi: ubuntu doesnt have one by default afaik
[01:46] <hedkandi> ok
[01:47] <erUSUL> Billiard: ~/.profile
[01:47] <Billiard> erUSUL: yea, not a .bash_profile
[01:47] <hedkandi> I can't find it
[01:47] <hedkandi> this ~/.profile
[01:48] <hedkandi> but ecryptfs says that it puts some code in there.
[01:48] <erUSUL> hedkandi: ~ is you home
[01:48] <sakekasi> hello
[01:48] <Billiard> hedkandi: how are you looking
[01:48] <sakekasi> do you guys know anywhere i can download the driver for the synaptics multitouch touchpad?
[01:48] <sakekasi> i want pich to zoom
[01:48] <geirha> mcurran: the tab key does the same thing.  Ctrl+r will let you search for previously run commands
[01:49] <hedkandi> ls -afl | grep profile
[01:50] <Billiard> hedkandi: if your cd is your home and you dont see it, you dont have a .profile
[01:50] <CountDeMonet> how do i get x to run in 16 bit instead of 24/32 in 9.10?
[01:50] <Billiard> hedkandi: copy it from /etc/skel  if you want the default
[01:50] <saruji> geirha, the command saruji: sudo rsync -a /home/* /mnt/newhome/ gave me error "permission denied"?
[01:51] <hedkandi> exactly but ecrypt says it uses it
[01:51] <sakekasi> is there any way i can switch from ubuntu32 to ubuntu64 without reinstalling?
[01:51] <saruji> geirha, sorry sudo rsync -a /home/* /mnt/newhome/
[01:51] <chatter> can i run compiz in Ubuntu NetBook Remix ?
[01:51] <saruji> chatter, yes
[01:51] <usser_> sakekasi, nope, ubuntu is not bsd. i mean there's a way but its just easier to reinstall
[01:52] <Billiard> saruji: where is your newhome located?
[01:52] <sakekasi> id rather not reinstall usser_
[01:52] <saruji> Billiard, /media/*
[01:52] <Billiard> saruji: did you change that part of the command when you ran it?
[01:52] <sakekasi> how can i switch usser?
[01:52] <saruji> Billiard, yes
[01:52] <cjibo> for some reason karmic cannot see my sound card or my camera.  Live disk had audio but native does not.  Camera also worked under UNR.  Anyone have a direction for me to look.  Acer AO751h.
[01:52] <Billiard> saruji: what was the exact command you used?
[01:52] <Eskmm> hey guys...
[01:52] <saruji> Billiard, got ya your saying user error hang on lemme try again and pay attention
[01:52] <sakekasi> !hi
[01:53] <sakekasi> !hi > Eskmm
[01:53] <saruji> it was sudo rsync -a /home/sergei /media/Storage
[01:53] <manug2> thanks ubottu@!
[01:53] <Eskmm> hmm i did..
[01:53] <kbp> I have a question: there is a file that you can modified the "automatic mount" the partion on start up. What is its location? It has been a long time I haven't installed the os so I dont remember.
[01:53] <kbp> sorry for bad grammar
[01:53] <Billiard> saruji: i think you want just /home   but im not an expert with rsync
[01:53] <saruji> Billiard, k lemme try
[01:53] <sakekasi> kbp which ubuntu version?
[01:54] <kbp> sakekasi: 9.04
[01:54] <saruji> Billiard, permission failed
[01:54] <sakekasi> kbp ok
[01:54] <sakekasi> kbp try installing startup manager
[01:54] <saruji> Billiard, lemme read up on it
[01:54] <Billiard> saruji: what type of partition is your newhome ?
[01:54] <sakekasi> kbp that shud let u change ur default os
[01:54] <saruji> Billiard, ext4
[01:55] <usser_> kbp, /etc/fstab
[01:55] <kbp> sakekasi: ????? my question is: which file can I modify to make the "automatic mount" on startup ...
[01:55] <saruji> Billiard, ok it copied the files
[01:55] <kbp> yea that's it
[01:55] <Billiard> kbp: /etc/fstab
[01:55] <sakekasi> kbp then i have no idea
[01:55] <kbp> thanks usser_ and sakekasi
[01:55] <saruji> Billiard, but gave an error that a file /home/*/.gvfs was not copied
[01:55] <Billiard> saruji: what was wrong?
[01:55] <kbp> Billiard: :)
[01:56] <saruji> Billiard, user error in reading "douh!"
[01:56] <Billiard> saruji: you dont want .gvfs
[01:56] <maco> saruji: thats fine
[01:56] <saruji> Billiard, ok cool so what now?
[01:56] <stephen> alias bishop
[01:56] <Billiard> saruji: what is located in /media/Storage now ?
[01:56] <maco> saruji: .gvfs is a virtual filesystem that just points to everything else on your system to gnome apps can find everything both on-disk and on (for example) samba shares, easily
[01:56] <Guest37488> ok
[01:57] <joaquin_> lalala
[01:57] <saruji> Billiard, /home/* maco thank you
[01:57] <Billiard> saruji: you should have a directory for your username inside /media/Storage
[01:57] <Eskmm> does anyone know how to connect to Iccup's battle.net irc?
[01:57] <saruji> Billiard, I have /home/username is that ok?
[01:57] <Eskmm> with xchat
[01:57] <kbp> ok another question: which command to show the UUID of all partitions ?
[01:58] <Guest37488> leaving bbak
[01:58] <Billiard> saruji: ls /media/Storage
[01:58] <saruji> Billiard, also there is dir called "lost+found" what is that?
[01:58] <Billiard> saruji: every partition has that
[01:58] <maco> saruji: thts where things go if the filesystem is corrupted by a bad shutdown and it cant figure out how to put them back
[01:59] <Eskmm> =D
[01:59] <saruji> Billiard, home lost+found username
[01:59] <kbp> does anyone know which command to show the UUID of all partitions ?
[01:59] <saruji> maco sweet thank you, i love learning more and more about this
[01:59] <Billiard> saruji: ok and username is the name of your username, ok now you said you know how to add a line to fstab
[01:59] <usser_> kbp, blkid
[01:59] <Geheimdienst> kbp: have you tried blkid?
[02:00] <Billiard> saruji: wait, you have home inside your /mnt/Storage ?
[02:00] <saruji> Billiard, well ok yes, I just add mount /directory at the end right?
[02:00] <Eskmm> hmm
[02:00] <kbp> usser_ , Geheimdienst : command not found (I'm using the linux recovery disc)
[02:00] <saruji> Billiard, yes I have home, but thats probably because I first tried to copy /home/username and then /home
[02:00] <Billiard> saruji: you should not have a /mnt/Storage/home
[02:01] <maco> Billiard: if saruji backed up ALL of /home, that makes sense
[02:01] <usser_> kbp, take a look at /dev/disk/by-uuid
[02:01] <saruji> maco right thank you, Billiard yes thats right
[02:01] <usser_> kbp, those are symbolic links pointing to real partitions
[02:01] <Billiard> maco: he shouldnt have /home inside his new home, thats what we are trying to accomplish here, make a new home dir
[02:02] <cmp> hello every body , can some one tell me is this link real and working or its fake ( http://yoten.blogspot.com/2007/04/speed-up-ubuntu.html)
[02:02] <maco> Billiard: ah this isnt just a bacup?
[02:02] <Kryptix> how can i change my computer name, and workgroup via terminal
[02:02] <cmp> hello every body , can some one tell me is this link real and working or its fake ( http://yoten.blogspot.com/2007/04/speed-up-ubuntu.html)
[02:03] <maco> cmp: outdated
[02:03] <kostkon> cmp, real, although the 1st one will not work on 9.10
[02:03] <kbp> usser_: it shows a lot of uuid but I just need the one of /dev/sda11, is there anyway to determine which one is it?
[02:03] <Billiard> maco: no he is making his partition his home
[02:03] <usser_> kbp, ls -al | grep sda11
[02:03] <cmp> kostkon, what do you mean - i use ubuntu 9.04
[02:03] <centHOGG> <handbrake star wars
[02:03] <kostkon> cmp, ah ok
[02:04] <maco> cmp: profiling, preload, parallel boot...thats all builtin in 9.10
[02:04] <maco> cmp: i dont think the first will work in 9.04 either. i dont think ipv6 is built as a module in 9.04
[02:05] <manoj> hi
[02:05] <cmp> maco, so if i tried to do it to speed up my system - is it ok ?
[02:05] <maco> cmp: its DNS resolution thats slow on IPV6 if you lack IPV6 access though. for that you can simply disable IPv6 DNS by commenting it out in /etc/hosts
[02:05] <shentino> what slows down is that apps use v6 by default
[02:05] <cjibo> Anyone else running Karmic 9.10 on Acer AO751h
[02:05] <kbp> usser_: permisson denied even though I'm on root, wth ?
[02:05] <shentino> and only fall back to v4 after getting a connection error
[02:05] <maco> cmp: #2 is included in 9.04 for sure, because thats the entire point of Upstart
[02:05] <Eskmm> lol @ acer
[02:05] <maco> shentino: but if they cant get a DNS lookup for v6 they cant try to connect over it ;-)
[02:05] <manoj> youtube site not opening on my sys?
[02:06] <cmp> you mean no need to do it  maco, ?
[02:06] <maco> cmp: right
[02:06] <cmp> oh, so is there any other and correct way to speed up my ubuntu 9.04 maco, ?
[02:07] <kbp> usser_: dw it works fine now :) thanks alot
[02:07] <shentino> it could be that the v6 timeout is what slows it down
[02:07] <qiangdaojia> 有会中文的吗
[02:07] <maco> cmp: 3 of those are boot optimizations. they wont affect the running system. 9.04 and 9.10 had a lot of focus on boot-time optimization.

[02:07] <noisecontrol1> I'm going to blog this tonight :) I love this OS
[02:08] <noisecontrol1> http://www.noisecontrolpublishing.com/linuxscreenshots/Screenshot.png <---- My desktop with Compiz nvidia geForce 7000 on compaq f700
[02:08] <maco> cmp: also, #1 was..i think it was fixed in glibc in 9.04 at some point. i rarely run stable releases so i have trouble remembering which release includes which fixes

[02:08] <maco> cmp: swappiness is the only one on there that makes sense to me
[02:08] <maco> cmp: well, and #8, but be careful you dont set it to some crazy settings that'll break your hard drive
[02:09] <cmp> and what does this swappiness mean maco?
[02:09] <Eskmm> hmm
[02:09] <maco> cmp: it means how much your computer writes from ram out to disk. the less it does that, the shorter it takes to switch tasks. but also the fewer tasks can run at a time
[02:09] <coolkehon> hey
[02:09] <Eskmm> who here knows how to build computers?
[02:09] <freetown> cmp, how aggressive Linux will be in using swap
[02:09] <maco> cmp: because the hard disk acts like a VERY SLOW (100x slower) bit of extra RAM
[02:09] <coolkehon> linux is very aggressive when it runs out of memory
[02:09] <freetown> cmp, a value of 0 would mean try not to use any at all
[02:10] <Eskmm> =[
[02:10] <Eskmm> im unloved
[02:10] <coolkehon> if it runs out of memory and swap it kills at random a task
[02:10] <coolkehon> jesus loves you :)
[02:10] <kcj1993> how do i register myself on the ##C++ channel?
[02:10] <maco> coolkehon: not random. the biggest memory hog.
[02:10] <Eskmm> no...

[02:10] <Eskmm> he doesnt
[02:10] <coolkehon> ok thanks
[02:10] <freetown> Eskmm, yeah...and?

[02:11] <Eskmm> yay for 1gb of ram =D
[02:11] <cmp> ok maco, iam new in linux and i want to know how to protect it from hacking - how to speed it and how to make a backup or img of my system ... can you help me in this  maco, ?
[02:11] <coolkehon> I need to install opensuse

[02:12] <coolkehon> !register coolkehon
[02:12] <Eskmm> manoj: mine works perfectly
[02:12] <SeaPhor> so with "grub2" how do i edit the previous 'menu.lst' so i dont have to edit the bootloader kernnel line Everytime i reboot?

[02:13] <lchi> hey i have a question about installing 9.10 on my machine
[02:14] <N3OInc> Does anyone know of a repository that I can get a Nessus Client/Server Package ?
[02:14] <freetown> coolkehon, test it on another computer?
[02:14] <Eskmm> my suggestion to 9.1 is dont install
[02:14] <coolkehon> was hoping to avoid that
[02:14] <freetown> SeaPhor, in /boot/grub?
[02:14] <Eskmm> ive had bad luck with it
[02:14] <coolkehon> would mean i would have to shutdown
[02:14] <Eskmm> only registered one cpu of my intel atom 270
[02:14] <coolkehon> i'm thinking about switching back to 9.04
[02:14] <maco> cmp: i use rsync on the command line. rdiffbackup can do incrementals. if you want a gui, look at FlyBack
[02:14] <lchi> I wouldn't be wiping my 9.04 partition
[02:14] <freetown> SeaPhor, you sure you are using grub2?
[02:15] <lchi> i have my home directory on a separate partition
[02:15] <SeaPhor> freetown, grub.cfg??
[02:15] <maco> cmp: or Bacula
[02:15] <maco> !backup | cmp
[02:15] <freetown> SeaPhor, yes, sorry
[02:15] <kbp> does anyone know is there any application like gparted but works on command-line ?
[02:15] <lchi> if, during install I set it to mount at /home, will the installer wipe what's already on the partition
[02:15] <Billiard> kbp: parted
[02:15] <SeaPhor> freetown, heh,,, locate only works when you spell it right ;-)
[02:15] <g__> hello whenever I plug in my headphones in my laptop my speakers make this super annoying click every 20 seconds it never used to do this before on any other versions of ubuntu as I am using the latest one.  I have an hda nvidia chipset with pulse audio now frontlining everything
[02:15] <lchi> will it overwrite anything?
[02:15] <kbp> thanks Billiard
[02:15] <brodels> Does this partition look normal? http://pastebin.com/m29ec67d2
[02:15] <Eskmm> eeh the only way id get 9.10 is if they fix the wifi problem..
[02:15] <brodels> Seems a bit weird.
[02:16] <Billiard> brodels: 228MB for /boot ?
[02:16] <brodels> Billiard: *shrug* guided set up.
[02:16] <Billiard> brodels: idk maybe tahts alright sorry it could be fine, i was thinkin dumb
[02:17] <brodels> this system has a second HDD, how do i format it so Ubuntu can see it.
[02:17] <coolkehon> brodels: i gave my boot 250MB
[02:17] <coolkehon> brodels and that seemed to work
[02:17] <brodels> ah ok.
[02:17] <coolkehon> brodels: it's because I run an encrypted system so boot has to be unencrypted
[02:18] <brodels> Ah
[02:19] <brodels> Alright, so it seems to be fine.
[02:19] <brodels> I am not a fan of those guided installs tbh.
[02:19] <Ben64> hey could someone do "echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH" for me
[02:19] <brodels> I come from FreeBSD.
[02:19] <brodels> this is new.
[02:20] <manpoole_> im able to send inside lirc with my mceusb but unable to trasnmit
[02:20] <lchi> If I install ubuntu 9.10 and set it to mount my existing home partition at /home, will it delete or overwrite any of my existing data?
[02:21] <manpoole_> i get a hardware does not support sending error
[02:22] <kcj1993> I'm trying to register but it keeps telling me my email is not valid
[02:22] <kcj1993> what do i do?
[02:22] <bazhang> kcj1993, ask in #freenode
[02:22] <kcj1993> ok
[02:23] <saruji> in /dev, what is the difference between all of the sdx and sdx1 and sdx2, etc?
[02:23] <andreanadelphon> saruji: those are different partitions
[02:24] <saruji> andreanadelphon, sda and sdb are right?  but what about the diff between sda1 and sda?
[02:24] <Flannel> saruji: sdxy: the x is the physical drive, the y is the partition number
[02:24] <andreanadelphon> what Flannel said =)
[02:24] <saruji> Flannel, ah thank you
[02:24] <Guest17287> I am using proftpd, I have passiveports set to 63900-64000 in my .conf file. I am trying to match the outgoing ftp data traffic for shaping purposes, and I thought thats what the passive ports were used for, am I wrong?
[02:26] <cjibo> boy this box is not liking me no audio and no web cam
[02:26] <orudie> how would i uncompress a .bz2 file in terminal ?
[02:27] <usser_> eniacpx, passive ports are used to transfer data to/from the ftp server when the server and the client make connections in passive mode
[02:27] <Ben64> orudie: bunzip2 foo.bz2
[02:27] <saruji> Billiard, what should my mount point be? /media/Storage/username?
[02:28] <eniacpx> usser_, so if I match on packets with source port #'s within my passive range, that should be the outbound data, correct?
[02:28] <Billiard> no
[02:28] <usser_> eniacpx, it may not always be the case, usually by default ftp servers are configured to support both passive and active and mode. passive mode needs data ports to be opened on the server. active on the client
[02:28] <Billiard> saruji: no
[02:28] <Billiard> saruji: in your /media/Storage you should only have lost+found and username, correct?
[02:28] <usser_> eniacpx, as long as the packets are outgoing, ie the ports in passive range are the source
[02:28] <saruji> Billiard, or just /home
[02:29] <saruji> Billiard, yes
[02:29] <usser_> eniacpx, there's also 22 port which is used to transfer ftp protocol commands.
[02:29] <usser_> eniacpx, err 21 port
[02:29] <Guest36193> 110
[02:29] <saruji> Billiard, so if its /media/Storage it would be mounting itself right, so I want to mount it in /home?
[02:29] <Billiard> saruji: then an fstab line such as  /dev/sda2 /home ext4 defaults 0 2
[02:30] <saruji> Billiard, ahh sweet thank you....I was close
[02:30] <saruji> Billiard, in my mind anyways
[02:30] <sonikku> any easy way to revert all network-related config back to isntallation defaults?  I think I've managed to muck things up pretty badly =P
[02:31] <saruji> Billiard, ok done now I am complete right? As the mount point will go to my /home dir
[02:31] <saruji> Billiard, i mean my sdc1 will go there
[02:32] <Billiard> saruji: yea
[02:32] <saruji> Billiard, I cannot thank you enough, I will reboot and come back, in case I dont, thank you!!! so much
[02:33] <kbp> is there a way to disable the running bar when shutting down? (my graphics card shows up a mess screen when it shuts down)
[02:34] <blacknred0> uberspaced, thnx for the info
[02:36] <saruji> Billiard, just wanted to say it worked, thanks again
[02:36] <Billiard> saruji: cool, np
[02:37] <Hilikus> do you guys know of a CLI app that reads and writes id3v2.4 tags in mp3s?

[02:38] <Razass> I changed the permissions of /lampp and now php/mysql/apache wont run...I have tried re-changing it to the two users on the system root and user  but neither work....any ideas?
[02:38] <kbp> Taim: when will it be bac to normal?
[02:38] <Hilikus> Billiard: perfect! thanks
[02:38] <Taim> kbp: Not sure.

[02:39] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, did you turn off compiz to try it?

[02:40] <Marreco> Tutorial
[02:40] <Waldo000000> Hi all. I've got a question, and google hasn't helped: My laptop screen brightness is dimmed when I resume from standby. The problem started after upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. Anyone heard about this issue? Any suggestions for debugging (e.g. particular error log files that might give me some hints?)
[02:40] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: is compiz turned on my default?  i haven't messed with it since a fresh 9.10 install
[02:41] <Waldo000000> further info: "Dim display when idle" in "Power Management Preferences" is unchecked for both AC and battery tabs
[02:41] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, yes, System Preferences, Appearance, visual effects----- none
[02:42] <Waldo000000> I would really appreciate any suggestions for the next steps of debugging. Anyone?
[02:42] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: ok i turned it off, I still get
[02:43] <Billiard> Waldo000000: you are able to change the brightness back up after it is dimmed ?
[02:43] <josh0x1> still get a xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed error
[02:43] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, with ati gfx, you may need a reboot,,, ati=sux
[02:43] <Waldo000000> Billiard: Yes
[02:43] <josh0x1> josh0x1: nvidia driver 185
[02:43] <SeaPhor> wait... josh0x1 ...
[02:44] <josh0x1> josh0x1: i can try to reboot but I think i've turned that off before with no success
[02:44] <_Trinity_> hi all
[02:44] <josh0x1> (on a previous installation.. at one point I had my max resolution working a long time ago, never had to do anything special for it)
[02:45] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, why you using xrandr? have you updated the install #1, #2, are u using the restricted drivers in "Hardware Drivers"???
[02:46] <Billiard> Waldo000000: more of a hack, but you could make a script that runs when the system resumes from hibernation to set the brightness back
[02:46] <_Trinity_> is there a ufw or gufw channel somewhere? Three's none heer on freenode.
[02:46] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, and plz dont tell me you downloaded the drivers from nvidia and using those
[02:47] <Waldo000000> Billiard: Thanks. But before I do that (probably as a last resort), do you (or anyone) know of any log files, etc., that might give me a better idea of what's going on, so I can either fix it or if not file a thorough bug report?
[02:47] <Billiard> Waldo000000: i have no idea
[02:48] <SeaPhor> Found Him^^
[02:48] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: no i downloaded the one from apt and no drivers show up on hardware drivers but display settings makes me use nvidia x server settings.  I restarted after installing the driver.  I'm trying xrandr so I don't have to keep restarting my computer to try different resolutions
[02:48] <ChogyDan> I get really poor performance burning cds.  My computer slows down to the point of locking up.  Is this common, or am I alone?
[02:48] <Waldo000000> Billiard: ok thanks anyway :) Anyone else heard of issues with a laptop screen being dimmed on resume from standby (after upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10)?
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> Waldo000000:  mine does that also. Not noticed a 'fix'
[02:49] <quinten> hey, my gnome-panel is unresponsive and has graphic artifacts
[02:50] <quinten> stays in the same state when i reboot
[02:50] <Snausages> Waldo000000: I saw mine do that a couple of times.  Didn't bother me, hadn't even thought of it until you brought it up
[02:50] <teamcoltra> ChogyDan, that is not "normal"
[02:50] <quinten> is this a known bug? i'm using the intel video drivers
[02:50] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, ok,,, you jumped the gun then,,, after you update you' should see them in System>Administration> Hardware Drivers 185(recommended)
[02:51] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: right -- i've seen this before but for some reason I don't now.  I recentlly uninstall everything nvidia before installing it again.. now even after installing it I don't see it.
[02:51] <ChogyDan> teamcoltra: thanks.  Maybe it is my mobo drivers....
[02:51] <Madpilot> quinten, open a terminal and type "killall gnome-panel" to force it to restart, see what that does
[02:51] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: xorg.0.log shows that nvidia driver is being loaded tho
[02:51] <_Trinity_> just a question, does ping have to have a port open to ping outwards?
[02:52] <teamcoltra> ChogyDan, yeah I mean I odn't know what the problem is... but I do know its not normal :P
[02:52] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, i sec, i have new install of 9.10 also, letme look a sec... (i'm beginning to hate 9.10)
[02:52] <ChogyDan> teamcoltra: but you can burn a cd, and still use your computer at the same time?  My burns happen quote slow too, at only 4x
[02:52] <sha> hai u all
[02:52] <SethX> re all, i've got a question regarding the ISO's downlaodable from ubuntu.org: are they livecds  or just installers?
[02:53] <_Trinity_> because I just set ufw tightly and I can't ping out
[02:53] <Dr_Willis> SethX:  desktop cd = live cd
[02:53] <musikgoat> SethX: depends what you download, most are liveCD's
[02:53] <maco> SethX: Desktop = live w/ installer. Alternate = text-based installer
[02:53] <SethX> also, second question, can somebody tell me if those cd's contain acer_wmi kernel module?
[02:54] <Guest64490> hh
[02:54] <josh0x1> here is my xorg.log: http://dpaste.com/124344/
[02:54] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[02:54] <Guest64490> iiii
[02:55] <_Trinity_> or is ti the https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ufw/+bug/188934 bug
[02:55] <iarp> hey, what was the min reqs on 9.04 and does ubuntu still have the download somewhere on their site
[02:55] <SeaPhor> at least that hasnt changed,,, just for the sake of changing...
[02:55] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: big download.. i'll try it out -- i know i've seen that package before from the 8.x days
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> iarp:  yes it is still downloadable.. and no i dont know the exact url.
[02:56] <SethX> Dr_Willis: musikgoat maco , could you tell me if you have acer_wmi in the kernel modules?
[02:56] <k3rmitz> I can't figure out why I can't get name resolution working that is I'm running a bind server and I'm getting:;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached. CAn someone help me with the dns?
[02:56] <musikgoat> SethX: not sure
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> SethX:  no idea. I dont have a live cd handy to boot up.
[02:56] <SethX> do you have it in your system?
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> !find acer_wmi
[02:57] <SethX> argh
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> No file that name here.
[02:57] <SethX> !find acer_wmi.so
[02:57] <musikgoat> that doesn't mean that the module doesn't exist though
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> It could be the kernel  has it built in also (doubt full)_
[02:57] <brianherman> !find acer
[02:58] <iMatter> iMatterSeems like no way to install an iso of windows recovery console to a partition from live cd
[02:58] <SethX> i need that module to fix a problem i'm experiencing in macosx
[02:58] <brianherman> !find wmi
[02:58] <SethX> since its an interface to the soft buttons used to activate my WLAN nic
[02:58] <nsgn> is there some trick to using "network proxy" to connect to the internet via a socks5 proxy in ubuntu? i can do it via a http proxy on the same remote host...just no socks5. what gives?
[02:58] <brianherman> !find -wmi
[02:58] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, yeah,,, i'm beginning to get tired of things just changing,,, i've devoted a section of my website for tutorials on doing various things in Ubuntu,,, i'm getting tired of having to write new ones with every release,,, gonna just stick to LTSs from here out
[02:59] <musikgoat> !find acer-wmi
[02:59] <musikgoat> SethX: there you go
[02:59] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: I'm tempted to reinstall 8.04/10 because they are the last versions that i don't recall having any video problems with.. i love linux but the video driver problems really suck
[02:59] <SethX> musikgoat: does that mean its included in 9.10 desktop?
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> Helps to get file name right. :)
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> bye all
[03:00] <SeaPhor> if you do, stick with 8.04 josh0x1 ... stick with the LTSs
[03:00] <musikgoat> SethX: yes, 9.04 is using the 2.6.31 kernel
[03:00] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: thanks for the suggestion.. i just hope this package helps
[03:01] <SethX> mkay
[03:01] <SethX> thx
[03:01] <SethX> :)
[03:01] <Waldo000000> ok, thanks all. guess i'll try looking for a fix again in a few weeks
[03:02] <nDuff> My middle mouse button stopped working on upgrade to 9.10; cat'ing direct from /dev/input/mice yields data on any other mouse motion or button press, but nothing at all from the middle button; likewise, xev and the like deny any activities. Any pointers on getting this resolved?
[03:03] <josh0x1> SeaPhor: ok it's installed.. i suppose the thing to do now is restart
[03:03] <Guest87950> hello
[03:03] <josh0x1> unfortunately restarting X always freezes up... /
[03:03] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, unfortunatetely but you can just restart x...
[03:04] <SeaPhor> josh0x1, and see my pm
[03:04] <JPSman> how can I determine which one of my /dev 's are doing what?  like which one is my audio?

[03:07] <nDuff> Colonel_Panik, 32-bit, I'm guessing?
[03:07] <underdog7> real simple question for someone i'm sure, but i've Ctrl + F to bring up a prompt dialog box in Nautilus and all i really want to do is input a search string (like *.* in DOS) to show ALL files in all subdirectories.  what input would i search tho?  thanks!
[03:07] <arghh2d2> Colonel_Panik: you got ripped of yo!
[03:07] <Colonel_Panik> nDuff, 64 bit ubuntu 9.04

[03:08] <CrazyDoode> underdog7: ls -R
[03:08] <nDuff> Colonel_Panik, hrm -- I can't say, then. Might be interesting to see whether lshw shows the individual sticks at the sizes you expect.
[03:08] <Colonel_Panik> arghh2d2, I thinks so but bios says I have 4 sticks of 1024
[03:08] <underdog7> CrazyDoode: is there not a search string i can search in Nautilus (akin to *.*) to yield all files?
[03:09] <CrazyDoode> underdog7: sorry idont do gui
[03:10] <underdog7> CrazyDoode: is there not a command to select all files though even in terminal?
[03:10] <Chris___> I want to set up my Ubuntu box to stream music/video to my 360. Anybody have any experience with this, as far as how to set it up?

[03:10] <Chris___> thanks syk
[03:11] <Chris___> I'll check those out
[03:11] <syk> np
[03:11] <Colonel_Panik> lshw shows 4 banks of 1GiB
[03:12] <Billiard> Chris___: ushare only worked well with videos for me
[03:12] <syk> yeah
[03:13] <nDuff> Colonel_Panik, I might start by looking at dmesg output, then; there's also a /proc entry somewhere with a description of how your memory is mapped, but frankly, I don't remember it anymore.
[03:13] <Billiard> Chris___: fuppes works with audio for me, but its much less fun to setup compared to ushare
[03:14] <nDuff> Colonel_Panik, ...just to check, btw, by any chance are you running a Xen kernel?

[03:19] <distatica> Anyone know where I might find some sample scanned documents in tiff format? Or a way to make SANE output a file without having a scanner attached? I need to do a test setup but I don't have a scanner.
[03:21] <Billiard> distatica: sample scanned tiffs? the internet maybe?
[03:21] <distatica> indeed, that'
[03:21] <distatica> tjat
[03:21] <distatica> ugh, that's why I asked "the internet"
[03:22] <munk> anyone having the same problem where since koala came out all recorded audio waveforms are offset up above the center line?
[03:22] <syk> distatica, http://www.fileformat.info/format/tiff/sample/index.htm
[03:22] <distatica> I'm not sure how SANE works, and what it's output file is like, I was hoping for something from SANE or a way to make SANE do it. However anywhere should be fine.
[03:23] <syk> i guess thats what your looking for

[03:24] <distatica> syk, thanks, I had looked at these but they're more images than text, and I'm testing OCR, but I'll check them all out.. maybe one is.
[03:25] <hanasaki> how can I find the max reslution of my graphics chipset?
[03:25] <HilBilly> While installing ubuntu, the installer seems to insist on installing to my second hard drive (/dev/sdb).  I want to install on /dev/sda, but it is not even on the partition list in the installer.  How do I make it find the first hard drive instead?
[03:25] <knoppies> Something is wrong with my VNC setup. Im in 9.04, using the default VINO server. When I log on using tightvncvweier (windows client) it takes a snapshot, and then doesnt update the image on the client (mouse/keyboard respond on ubuntu)
[03:26] <knoppies> any ideas whats causing it/how to fix it?
[03:26] <mcurran> knoppies you are a pair of friggin' clown shoes
[03:26] <JPSman> how can I determine which one of my /dev 's are doing what?  like which one is my audio?
[03:26] <knoppies> mcurran, why do you say that?
[03:27] <munk> anyone noticed a fade in for audio being played in any application? only when the program just sstarts though
[03:27] <g__> hello whenever I plug in my headphones in my laptop my speakers make this super annoying click every 20 seconds it never used to do this before on any other versions of ubuntu as I am using the latest one.  I have an hda nvidia chipset with pulse audio now frontlining everything
[03:28] <maco> g__: perhaps a bug in the sound driver's powersave features. please file a bug "ubuntu-bug linux"
[03:28] <Billiard> JPSman: what is your ultimate goal?
[03:29] <JPSman> Billiard - To cat an output to the audio device so as to "hear" the file
[03:29] <dylan__> can anyone tell me how to turn off the powersaving settings for a laptop in ubuntu
[03:29] <mcurran> cat this

[03:30] <hanasaki> can a card with hdmi output more than 1080p if connected to a monitor that supports it?

[03:33] <burningatrocity> the website tells me to type "sh hplip-3.9.6.run

[03:34] <sweetandy> JPSman: I get the best results from cat-ing a huge directory of pictures :/
[03:35] <eremite> Chrome OS is a joke.  ByzantineOS was out years ago and is basically the same thing, but without the cloud.  The cloud aspect is easy to replicate.  You guys ever use ByzantineOS?
[03:36] <osxdude> Hmmmm.
[03:37] <osxdude> I'm installing ubuntu on my Mac mini, and, I'm having troubles installing the bootloader (GRUB). Using the Alternate installer, and it's an older Intel Mac.
[03:38] <osxdude> Which /dev/ do I install it on? Or is it better to use "hdx,x"?
[03:38] <brodels> eremite: I'm not sure I see whre the joke is between the 2. Both have obvious different models and goals.
[03:39] <osxdude> The only other partition is the HFS+, and Ubuntu is installed on /dev/sdb2 (i think)
[03:39] <noctis2k> i make a fresh install ubuntu 9.10 with ext4, and i have a lot freses, i just can move mouse
[03:40] <osxdude> It's installed on /dev/sda4, actually
[03:40] <jrtroberts2> I would like some help understand how to use the LVM when installing ubuntu server 9.10
[03:40] <osxdude> Unless partition #4 is sda3...
[03:40] <burningatrocity> need help, trying to get printer working, went to HP website, it sent me to a site for downloading linux drivers, the site told after I downloaded it, to "cd Desktop" then to type "sh hplip-3.9.6.run" I tried that, and it didn't work, so then I did "sudo" then the rest of it, and it's always giving me "sh: can't open hplip-3.9.6.run"
[03:40] <osxdude> gah, i'm comfused
[03:40] <osxdude> and talking to myself
[03:40] <osxdude> !grup
[03:40] <osxdude> !grub
[03:41] <jrtroberts2> I have 2 80GB hard drives and I would like to the /var partition to be 120 GB  so how do I use LVM to accomplish that?
[03:41] <eremite> I'm having a resolution problem.  I only get 600x800.  I've added resolutions manually via command line, but they dont stay.  I edited xorg config, but the changes never work.  Any ideas why?
[03:41] <osxdude> !grub2
[03:41] <osxdude> Sorry >_<
[03:41] <eremite> I can get higher resolutions via command line, but they are not perm.
[03:41] <jrtroberts2> I have tried to create a VG, but it did not seem to take.  Do I need to make sure that all the volumes I use for this are Logical Volumes and not Primary Volumes?
[03:42] <burningatrocity> need help, trying to get printer working, went to HP website, it sent me to a site for downloading linux drivers, the site told after I downloaded it, to "cd Desktop" then to type "sh hplip-3.9.6.run" I tried that, and it didn't work, so then I did "sudo" then the rest of it, and it's always giving me "sh: can't open hplip-3.9.6.run"
[03:42] <jrtroberts2> Because when I create my virtual group I am not given an option to edit it and mount the /var partition into the VG from within the LVM
[03:42] <jrtroberts2> does anyone have any insight into this?
[03:42] <sharpen047> would someone mind helping me? every time i start my computer my internet doesnt work, i delete the profile and make a new one and then it works, using wifi.
[03:42] <brianherman> anybody know anything about squid
[03:42] <noctis2k> burningatrocity whats the model?
[03:43] <brianherman> the http proxy
[03:43] <sharpen047> they swim brianherman
[03:43] <D_K_2> burningatrocity - have you changed the permissions for the *.sh file?
[03:43] <burningatrocity> HP OfficeJet Pro L7700
[03:43] <burningatrocity> I don't understand all that stuff
[03:43] <brianherman> i mean squid the http caching software
[03:43] <burningatrocity> how do I change permissions for sh?
[03:43] <brianherman> squid-cache.org
[03:43] <D_K_2> burningatrocity right click file, permissions tab, check "allow execution"
[03:44] <ctmjr> burningatrocity: try it this way sudo sh ./ hplip-3.9.6.run
[03:45] <SeaPhor> D_K_2, or,, does xhost + work in ubuntu?
[03:45] <burningatrocity> still getting the same thing
[03:45] <HilBilly> anyhow .. I managed to make the installer find the right hard drive, by disconnecting the second hard drive.  Would have been nice if it allowed me to select the drive from inside the installer.
[03:45] <burningatrocity> it says it can't open it
[03:46] <noctis2k> i have a HP officejet pro k5400 and i didnt do any download drivers, i connect and ubuntu have the drivers to work
[03:46] <eremite> I'm having a resolution problem.  I only get 600x800.  I've added resolutions manually via command line, but they dont stay.  I edited xorg config, but the changes never work.  Any ideas why?
[03:46] <burningatrocity> well I tried connecting, and it needs drivers, ubuntu couldn't find them automatically, so I tried going to HP, and this is where I've gotten to
[03:46] <D_K_2> burningatrocity have you tried what ctmjr suggested
[03:46] <eremite> I can get higher resolutions via command line to work, but when i restart they revert back to 600x800
[03:47] <burningatrocity> D_K_2 yes I did
[03:47] <burningatrocity> getting the same thing no matter what

[03:49] <burningatrocity> I messed up, but I got it working onw
[03:50] <D_K_2> burningatrocity - have you read http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=903436
[03:50] <burningatrocity> no I didn't but I'll check it out, though I did get it working
[03:50] <D_K_2> burningatrocity lol kk
[03:51] <danl> ou?
[03:51] <danl> is there a way to further increase touchpad sensitivity past what the slider in mouse settings will allow?
[03:51] <D_K_2> Geoff__ i have that usb adaptor
[03:51] <Colonel_Panik> nzapp, Thinkpads work and Dell has an Inspiron for Linux
[03:52] <D_K_2> Geoff__ it used to need ndiswrapper but hasent needed it in 2 releases
[03:52] <D_K_2> Geoff__ but ill try to verify that
[03:53] <Colonel_Panik> nzapp, google for Linux hardware
[03:53] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Alright. yeah, it had been a while since I upgraded. The first upgrade went wrong, and now I'm trying to get it connecting again.
[03:53] <nzapp> Thanks, I'm looking at the dell's now
[03:54] <Colonel_Panik> nzapp, my Dell came with Ubuntu on it
[03:54] <_Trinity_> anyone know their ufw here?
[03:54] <jmsthing678> hello. Can someone help me out?
[03:55] <Geoff__> D_R_2, if you sent me a message in the last 45 seconds, I accidentally logged out of my program.
[03:55] <_Trinity_> I added -A ufw-before-input -p icmp --icmp-type echo-reply -j DROP to /etc/ufw/before.rules in an attempt to drop incomming ICMP packets
[03:55] <nzapp> all the hardware worked out the box?
[03:55] <nzapp> if so that is awesome
[03:55] <Geoff__> And I mispelled the name.
[03:55] <jmsthing678> anyway whenever I try to boot my ubuntu machine grub opens a command line interface and I cannot boot
[03:55] <D_K_2> Geoff__ lol, was reading
[03:56] <_Trinity_> but I don't see an example of this on the net. Anyone know if that would work?
[03:56] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Haha, alright.
[03:57] <jmsthing678> anyone?
[03:57] <D_K_2> Geoff__ - check under restricted drivers after you plug it in, if it aint there and you have no wireless signals to connect to ( or if it doesnt even let you get that far) you might wanna try ndiswrapper. i remember usb54g working outta the box since 8.04 i believe, but maybe not on your system(??)
[03:57] <danl> takes me like three swipes of my touch pad to get the cursor all the way across the screen...
[03:57] <Ibw> How do I set a package through dpkg as manually installed? So that dependencies don't freak out
[03:58] <Billiard> Ibw: apt-mark
[03:58] <Billiard> Ibw: or try to install it with apt-get install and it will mark it for you
[03:58] <Geoff__> D_K_2 how would I check restricted drivers? I can see wireless signals, it just won't fully connect to them.
[03:58] <D_K_2> Geoff__ and you can get ndiswrapper from synaptic
[03:58] <jmsthing678> how is it that out of all these people here no one is willing to help me out?
[03:59] <Billiard> jmsthing678: what did you do before it stopped working?
[03:59] <D_K_2> Geoff__ if you see wireless signals but cant connect the usb54g is working, its prolly a problem with the rncryption
[03:59] <rance94> can somebody help me on how to get the cursor position in ubuntu using python and i know but nobody is talkin in the python chat
[03:59] <Ibw> Billiard: I'd love to install the package I need (mercurial) through apt-get install, but the version in the Hardy repos is way to old for what I need, so I am going to have to install from source
[03:59] <jmsthing678> I had to power it off manually because it froze during open arena
[03:59] <Geoff__> D_K_2 It's difficult to download using synaptic when the computer doesn't have an internet connection ;-)
[03:59] <rance94> can somebody help me on how to get the cursor position in ubuntu using python and i know but nobody is talkin in the python chat
[03:59] <Ibw> apt-mark will let me tell dpkg not to worry about dependencies?
[03:59] <D_K_2> Geoff__ hahaha that makes sense
[04:00] <Ibw> Things that rely on mercurial?
[04:00] <leaf-sheep> wcf3[2nh---------
[04:00] <Geoff__> D_K_2 So how do I fix this rncryption problem?
[04:00] <sonikku> mmm- why would a network card show up as eth1 and not eth0?  it's not a problem... just kinda odd
[04:00] <Billiard> Ibw: ifaik apt-mark will just mark/unmark it as manually installed
[04:00] <mslern> I'm not sure if this is a bug or something, but each time I resume from "suspend" mode, it the computer loads up the contents of my SD card, as if it was newly inserted
[04:00] <Ibw> Billiard: ok, and a manually installed package will work out when other packages are resolving dependencies?
[04:01] <mslern> I simply wanted to report it, for whoever might care
[04:01] <Billiard> Ibw: i dont think its what you want now that you said you are compiling from source, you should upgrade from hardy
[04:01] <D_K_2> Geoff__ im guessing you have some WEP bullsh!t built in to your modem/router?
[04:01] <Ibw> Billiard: I could, but my computer had serious issues with Jaunty
[04:01] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Yeah I do.
[04:01] <danl> ahhhhh so much better...
[04:02] <Billiard> jmsthing678: try booting from a live cd and use fsck
[04:02] <D_K_2> Geoff__ umm 128 bit encryption, and type the 10 alpha-numeric code in for your router
[04:02] <D_K_2> Geoff__ you tried that?
[04:02] <jmsthing678> so just run fsck in terminal?
[04:02] <Billiard> jmsthing678: well more than just "fsck"
[04:03] <jmsthing678> well I guess repair any errors and such too
[04:03] <jmsthing678> right?
[04:03] <Geoff__> D_K_2 It recognizes the need for a need for a password, and I typed it in, it just won't connect afterwards.
[04:03] <Billiard> jmsthing678: what are you asking?
[04:03] <LucidGuy> Situation: PC Server running vmware ESXi4 with a locally attached DVD burner and a Linux VM running on it.  Is it possible to burn a CD/DVD from that Linux VM?
[04:03] <brianherman> Does anybody know anything about squid-cache ?
[04:03] <rance94> hey my synatic package manager is broken and i need help! can somebody plz help me??
[04:04] <jmsthing678> after running fsck allow it to fix errors and such right?
[04:04] <D_K_2> Geoff__ gimme one minute, lemme check something out
[04:04] <rance94> hey my synatic package manager is broken and i need help! can somebody plz help me??
[04:04] <osxdude> What /dev/sda device is partition #4 on?
[04:04] <osxdude> ...if that makes sense
[04:04] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Alrighty. I'll just keep busy looking for splash images.
[04:04] <Billiard> jmsthing678: yes i would try that, you will have to run "fsck /dev/partitiondevicename"
[04:04] <HilBilly> osx /dev/sda4
[04:05] <rance94> hey my synatic package manager is broken and i need help! can somebody plz help me??
[04:05] <jmsthing678> what if i dont know "partitiondevicename"
[04:05] <jmsthing678> ?
[04:05] <osxdude> HilBilly thanks
[04:05] <Billiard> jmsthing678: or fsck.ext3  if its ext3,  is better
[04:05] <Billiard> rance94: broken?
[04:05] <D_K_2> l
[04:05] <Billiard> jmsthing678: "blkid" might help you
[04:06] <osxdude> Grub is failing to install on my Ubuntu partition.
[04:06] <jmsthing678> k
[04:06] <D_K_2> Geoff__ im trying to see what opyions i have when i get the WEP box, but i dont wanna switch connections and go offline
[04:06] <rance94> Billiard yes lol it kept saying there was an error and it couldnt run and finally i ran a script in terminal and now it is working. it had to reconfigure or something lol thx for asking though it is much appreciated :)
[04:06] <Billiard> rance94: ok
[04:07] <osxdude> Hmm
[04:07] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Makes sense. Oh, I think it's a WPA2. Run from an Airport Extreme router.
[04:07] <rance94> yep
[04:07] <osxdude> If ubuntu is partition #4, and that makes the device /dev/sda4, why does GRUB installation fail?
[04:07] <Billiard> osxdude: which grub, which filesystem type, which ubunu version?
[04:07] <trevor> since i just installed ubuntu 9.10, is there something wrong, or a fix since i cannot connect via PPPoE using the DSL portion of network manager
[04:07] <trevor> ive gotten it to work in older versions and mint 6
[04:07] <rance94> now it just takes years to delete something :( im trying to remove eclipse but it is sllloooowwww deleting it
[04:08] <osxdude> Billiard grub2, ext3, 9.10
[04:09] <Billiard> osxdude: how are you trying to install it, alternate cd/desktop cd?
[04:09] <osxdude> Billiard: Alternate.
[04:10] <rance94> everytime i try to delete something it gets to 50% then stops it like freezes what do i do??
[04:10] <Billiard> osxdude: you put in /dev/sda4 for the device and it says failed? any specific error message?
[04:10] <Billiard> rance94: does it work when you use "apt-get remove" from the command line
[04:10] <Firefishe> I just did an upgrade from jaunty to karmic, and the updater botched the job.  Is there a way I can force-update my jaunty install to karmic by just changing the repository to karmic?
[04:10] <rance94> Billiard let me go try
[04:11] <osxdude> Billiard: No specific error message, and i'm also not 100% sure that that is the device that Ubuntu is installed on >_<
[04:11] <marksman> whenever I play certain games the sound is very "crackly."  If I look in Sound -> Preferences -> Applications it will show that the ALSA plug-in is flashing on and off for the specific game with sound issues (example chromium).  Most sound works just fine.  Any ideas?
[04:11] <D_K_2> Geoff__ ok, i dont know much about wpa2 (much meaning nothing) but i have a link to check out
[04:11] <rance94> Billard yeah it dosent work when i do it in terminal
[04:11] <D_K_2> Geoff__  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834
[04:12] <Billiard> Firefishe: you can replace jaunty in the source list with karmic, but i would do a clean install
[04:12] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Thanks for the help! I'll check it out!
[04:12] <jmsthing678> marksman: I had same problem and I turned off ASLA and everything is fine now
[04:12] <unrousable64> so from what I'm reading, a cluster is really different computers, not one... right?
[04:12] <Billiard> osxdude: got make sure
[04:12] <marksman> jmsthing678, how do I do that?
[04:12] <rance94> Billiard yeah it doesnt work in the command line either :(
[04:12] <cfedde> unrousable64: exactly
[04:12] <osxdude> Billiard: Is there a way in the built-in BusyBox shell?
[04:12] <jmsthing678> marksman:its usually an option within the game itself
[04:12] <Billiard> rance94: it just locks up, it doesnt have an error?
[04:12] <D_K_2> Geoff__ its not much help but i hope theres a few clues in there for you
[04:12] <rance94> idk
[04:13] <jmsthing678> marksman: what game is it?
[04:13] <unrousable64> cfedde, awesome... no other requirements other than the computers being networked to each other?
[04:13] <Firefishe> Billiard:  Well, I have a lot on this particular box, and I don't have a karmic install cd just yet.  I'm used to net-installs, so that wouldn't be a problem, but I'd like to be able to just install everything from where I am now, if possible.
[04:13] <marksman> jmsthing678, astromenace & naev
[04:13] <cfedde> unrousable64: you need to decide what the cluster is for.
[04:13] <Billiard> osxdude: well you could check the partition labels if you gave it a label, or filesystem types, or mount the device and see whats on it
[04:13] <cfedde> unrousable64: select software, etc.
[04:13] <jonz> hello, anyone know how to reorder groups in empathy? is it not possible? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1305354.html (sorry if thats a repost, i think i wasn't "joined" yet when I typed that into irssi)
[04:14] <rance94> billiard ill tell u what it says: ould not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:14] <rance94> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[04:14] <Firefishe> Billiard:  The updater also left my respositories in an in-between state, so I'm essentially screwed at this point.
[04:14] <jmsthing678> marksman: idk about those  but look in their individial settings, and also look for sound quality option and put it on the lowest setting
[04:14] <unrousable64> cfedde, I'm planning on building a small-scale render farm running ubuntu.
[04:14] <trevor> is there a way to change single icons in an icon set
[04:14] <jmsthing678> anyway gtg
[04:14] <lowlycoder> how do i find out how much l1 cache I have?
[04:14] <cfedde> unrousable64: cool.  using blender? renderman?
[04:14] <jmsthing678> Billiard: thanks for the help
[04:14] <osxdude> Billiard: well /dev/sda4 is mounted on /target, which probably means that that is the drive Ubuntu is on...right? lol
[04:14] <Billiard> Firefishe: idk you could try changing your sources list, i would backup/clean install
[04:14] <Billiard> rance94: did you close synaptic first?
[04:14] <Firefishe> Billiard:  k...thaks
[04:15] <Firefishe> thanks
[04:15] <rance94> billiard yes
[04:15] <unrousable64> cfedde, blender, it's renderer, and drqeue :D
[04:15] <Billiard> rance94: what was the exact command you used?
[04:15] <rance94> sudo apt-get remove eclipse
[04:15] <rance94> Billiard sudo apt-get remove eclipse
[04:15] <cfedde> unrousable64: good luck! sounds like a fun project.
[04:15] <Billiard> osxdude: i have no idea
[04:16] <Billiard> rance94: you dont have a package manager running
[04:16] <unrousable64> cfedde, thanks :)
[04:16] <Billiard> rance94: updates or anything?
[04:16] <rance94> idk
[04:16] <QuestionMark> Hi, i have Karmic Koala over a VirtualBox 3 and i need share a folder with the Windows Host, i follow the steps in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/SharedFolders but im stoped in a protocol error ¿some idea?
[04:16] <osxdude> Billiard: I'll try the desktop CD once it finishes downloading
[04:16] <Billiard> osxdude: ok
[04:16] <rance94> Billiard i dont think so well i have like 200 updates to different stuff
[04:17] <florinel> just wanted to come in and say i love ubuntu.  GREAT SUCCESS!
[04:17]  * osxdude boots into OS X
[04:18] <rance94> Billiard should i restart my computer and see if that helps
[04:18] <Billiard> rance94: you could, if you force closed synaptic it might cause probs
[04:18] <kbp> Hello. If I use debuild -us -uc to build a deb package from source, can I run that deb package on other computer ?
[04:18] <webbb82> what do u guys thinik of moblin
[04:19] <rance94> Billiard well i forced add/remove to close when it was deleting something was that bad
[04:19] <rance94> Billiard i forced closed because it froze up and would finish removing
[04:19] <azizul> hal?
[04:19] <jrtroberts2> questions about LVM in ubuntu... anyone familiar with this?
[04:19] <rance94> Billiard i mean it wouldn't finish removing
[04:20] <azizul> anybody from malaysia??
[04:20] <azizul> anybody from malaysia??
[04:20] <Billiard> azizul: dont repeat yourself
[04:21] <jrtroberts2> should I take that as a no?
[04:21] <Oddbio> What is the point of your status on the user applet in Ubuntu. In a default install it's the button on the top right that allows you to logoff shutdown ect.. change status. What does it effect? Is it tied in with pidgin, empathy, some other program? thanks.
[04:22] <D_K_2> jrtroberts2 sorry
[04:22] <tinpardo> hi
[04:22] <knoppies> Oddbio, I know it works with pidgin
[04:22] <D_K_2> Oddbio its tied to that telepathy
[04:22] <D_K_2> Oddbio empathy
[04:23] <D_K_2> Oddbio which i hate at its present state
[04:23] <azizul> oh ye??
[04:24] <Oddbio> D_K_2: empathy can't do IRC can it?
[04:24] <greezmunkey> D_K_2, So it's a method to affect presence (available, unavailable, etc.)?
[04:24] <D_K_2> Oddbio lol i never even bother to try
[04:24] <Madpilot> ubottu, nickspam > PhantomLink
[04:24] <D_K_2> greezmunkey im pretty sure, goes with the IM client
[04:25] <greezmunkey> D_K_2, hmmm
[04:25] <azizul> sesape nak cakap melayu x??
[04:25] <D_K_2> yeah, it ties with pidgin
[04:25] <PhantomLink> o_o
[04:25] <D_K_2> and im assuming empathy
[04:25] <PhantomLink> I was asleep, and now I'm awake.
[04:25] <greezmunkey> D_K_2, Oh, I see...
[04:25] <jrtroberts2> D_K_2:  It is ok, I will just have to do it the old fashion way--- READ THE MANUAL!!!  8D
[04:25] <azizul> ooo
[04:25] <D_K_2> greezmunkey just sems lazy but im sure its great somehow
[04:26] <Geoff__> Alright. Still having difficulties getting my wireless internet working. I can download onto a separate computer and move it via USB drive to the linux computer, but not directly onto the linux computer. I am running 9.10, freshly installed. I am using a WUSB54G wireless adapter attempting to connect to a secured wireless network run from an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station with a WPA2 encryption. Any ideas?
[04:26] <azizul> see2
[04:26] <Billiard> Geoff__: can you see the network?
[04:26] <D_K_2> jrtroberts2 - you could try a youtube vid or something, or just click buttons and see what happens
[04:26] <greezmunkey> D_K_2, Heh! Also, I'm not sure I'd want anyone to know ;]
[04:26] <Geoff__> Billiard Yes I can. I can attempt to connect, but it won't actually fully connect.
[04:26] <jrtroberts2> it is a server install so there are menu's but no mouse and it mostly text driven
[04:26] <D_K_2> Billiard yeah, he cant connect with his wpa2 security
[04:27] <D_K_2> Billiard any ideas on the wpa2?
[04:27] <D_K_2> jrtroberts2 thats aweful, manual it is
[04:27] <Billiard> i blame apple airport extreme
[04:27] <Geoff__> :(
[04:28] <r3x> #linuxac
[04:28] <D_K_2> Billiard - im thinking if he turns off security (temporarly) and tried to connect, he might get through
[04:28] <Billiard> D_K_2: oh i thought you did try that and it did work
[04:28] <D_K_2> Billiard just as a test
[04:29] <D_K_2> Billiard not yet, but its worth a shot if he has access to it
[04:29] <Billiard> D_K_2: i guess you could try and see if it works, but tahts not a solution and its not really getting you anywhere
[04:29] <Geoff__> D_K_2 Billiard : I'm just confused because I was able to connect on 8.04 (I think that's the one) with ndiswrapper with no problems.
[04:29] <D_K_2> Billiard i agree its not a solution but itll narrow down the problem
[04:30] <D_K_2> maybe
[04:30] <D_K_2> lol
[04:30] <Billiard> buy intel card and linksys router
[04:30] <webbb82> how hard is it to install ubuntu to my external hard drive insted of a usb flash drive
[04:30] <Billiard> lol
[04:30] <dome> I am new to debian. Will the 64bit work on my Core2duo E6420?
[04:30] <fengshaun> does anybody know where I can get gnome-globalmenu package for karmic from?
[04:30] <dome> I mean ubuntu
[04:30] <Billiard> webbb82: exactly the same
[04:31] <Billiard> dome: yes
[04:31] <dome> I saw it on the website but just wanted to make sure.. thank you Billiard
[04:31] <Geoff__> Billiard: Meh, we run 3 Macintoshes to my ONE dualboot linux/XP. I think I would lose that convincing my parents.
[04:31] <Space-Wolf> hey can someone help me with something?
[04:31] <D_K_2> tlol whats that bot command
[04:31] <D_K_2> !ask
[04:32] <D_K_2> thats the one
[04:32] <mezquitale> dome, I have ubuntustudio with 64 bit OS
[04:32] <Space-Wolf> can someone tell me how to burn DVDs in ubuntu?  I have them saved as .avi files.  I tried using k3b but it doesn't work, it keeps giving error messages
[04:32] <eremite> Is UbuntuStudio any good?  I hate regular Ubuntu for recording music and use Windows.
[04:33] <webbb82> ok one last question,  can i install moblin along with gnomoe and kde then just switch to what ever one you want to use in the login sessions window????
[04:33] <mezquitale> Space-Wolf, I use brasero
[04:33] <D_K_2> Space-Wolf id like a tuturial on that too, i cant seem to get it right either
[04:33] <eremite> Space-Wolf, you need to convert the .avi files to DVD format.
[04:33] <Billiard> webbb82: you should be able to choose from the login window
[04:33]  * Blue1 uses nero 4 linux
[04:33] <Space-Wolf> I have that as well, but I tried it and it said that the movie file was not correct or something
[04:33] <MrAntMan> space-wolf: set burn speed to minimum
[04:33] <eremite> I wish things just worked with Linux, like they do with Windows.  I seriously do not understand the hatred of Windows.
[04:33] <webbb82> billard but the moblin file is a iso
[04:33] <Space-Wolf> so as an avi file the movie cannot be burned?
[04:34] <Billiard> Space-Wolf: you can burn anything
[04:34] <Space-Wolf> but can it be burned as a dvd movie?
[04:34] <mezquitale> eremite, I hate windows because they force you and the hardware vendors to go their way, creating a monopoly, with linux I have a choice
[04:34] <D_K_2> Space-Wolf some dvd player support *.avi playback, but not many older ones
[04:34] <Blue1> eremite: virii
[04:34] <doc-saintly> is there a tool that will check the integrity of a disk (not filesystem) to see if its failing?
[04:34] <trevor> has anyone installed tweetdeck via adobe air on 64 bit before?
[04:34] <Billiard> eremite: i think more things "just work" on linux compared to windows
[04:34] <D_K_2> Space-Wolf yes it can be burned as a dvd but the avi has to be converted first
[04:35] <Madpilot> eremite, many of us get more use out of a *nix box than we ever got out of a Windows box. "doesn't work for me" doesn't equal "fail for everyone", remember...
[04:35] <Space-Wolf> okay well basically when I drag the file to the burning software it gives me an error message
[04:35] <Blue1> doc-saintly: you'd probably have to get that from the hdd manufactureer site.
[04:35] <leaf-sheep> !boot
[04:35] <Space-Wolf> is that the discs fault or is something else wrong?
[04:35] <D_K_2> space_wolf yeah that aint gonna work
[04:35] <eremite> Well, we clearly have different experiences.  With windows Ive never ahd to use a command line, use tech support or help chat like this nor have trouble with installing apps.
[04:35] <Billiard> Space-Wolf: which burning software
[04:35] <Space-Wolf> I used k3b and brasero and neither worked
[04:35] <mezquitale> eremite, on that note, I have a machine that works great with linux, cd and dvd player, XP supports neither
[04:35] <Billiard> eremite: which linux ive never had to download drivers
[04:35] <doc-saintly> Blue1: thanks
[04:35] <D_K_2> the movie file has to be converted to DVD format (dvd format aint *.avi)
[04:36] <leaf-sheep> The command 'startx' is often used to start a Xorg screen. What is the best way to automate that without any window manager?
[04:36] <eremite> Windows = double click and be done.  Ubutnu = 50+ lines in the terminal.  Lets not forget that Ubuntu hates intel drivers for gamers etc.
[04:36] <puff> I am on ubuntu jaunty on an IBM t43p.  I have had no problems with sound with this install (back on hardy, yeah).  Now it has mysteriously stopped working for firefox and amarok, but the system bell (ctrl-g) works fine.
[04:36] <Space-Wolf> I had a program called DeVeDe or something like that, does that convert to DVD format?
[04:36] <junkyard> I recently ran a update to my karmic koala .... Now on reboot I get "Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs"
[04:36] <Billiard> leaf-sheep: you just want to run startx on boot?
[04:36] <greezmunkey> eremite, you ever call microsoft for support? How far did you get without a credit card?
[04:36] <junkyard> How I restore my system back?
[04:36] <puff> I was watching hulu with firefox earlier today, paused it, went to resume a few hours later, video fine but no audio.  I was busy so I didn't worry about it, just now I tried amarok and amarok says "xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers".
[04:37] <eremite> I've never needed support with a Windows machine.
[04:37] <mezquitale> puff, there's a bug somewhere, have you ever posted a bug?? I have the same problem too
[04:37] <valros> whats that info program that will show you just about everything on your desktop, begins with a C i think?
[04:37] <draconis> eremite, intel drivers for gamers? I haven't heard of any gamers (real ones) using Intel graphics cards
[04:37] <puff> mezquitale: I've posted a bug or two in the past, yeah.
[04:37] <Space-Wolf> did anyone get that aboutthe DeVeDe thing?
[04:37] <Blue1> puff: have you tried re-starting firefox?
[04:37] <leaf-sheep> Billiard: That's right. I get to the virtual console at boot. To test the setup, startx worked great. I'm not sure about configuring that for automatic. Something about startx in .init-rc?
[04:37] <Billiard> eremite: i never needed support with a linux machine, i think you should leave if you dont have a question
[04:37] <junkyard> I am sure the system update screwed up my grub
[04:37] <puff> Blue1:  Not yet, but would that affect amarok?
[04:37] <D_K_2> Space-Wolf yeah devede will do it fo rya
[04:37] <Blue1> puff: it can -
[04:37] <D_K_2> Space-Wolf or mandvd
