[19:43] <gp5st> pvl1: depends. i don't know what you mean by get it to work right
[19:44] <freezzy> ActionParsnip: the terminal writes just :PING youtube-ui.l.google.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) 56(84) bytes of data.

[19:44] <ActionParsnip> Frezzy: that's not the right ip, try the google dns servers instead. Just to test
[19:44] <freezzy> ActionParsnip: also i have to understand why windows can but ubuntu not...

[19:45] <bastidrazor> ActionParsnip: <IP_ADDRESS> is what i get as the www.youtube.com ip
[19:46] <ActionParsnip> Frezzy: not sure, the drivers are different and the network implementation is different. If you put the ip that bastidrazor gave in your browser, do you get the site?
[19:46] <gp5st> pvl1: just checking;) i've never had issues retagging music with it :-\ sorry
[19:46] <freezzy> ActionParsnip: my ip is changing by ISS when they want. (i mean sometimes - once a week)

[19:46] <Drknezz> Hi guys! I have a problem with sound, it was working like a charm, but suddenly, it wont work, and some weird audio devices show in the K Control panel
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> W1nt3r: boot to livecd and chroot to the internal partition. You can then use: sudo apt-get -f install

[19:49] <nmvictor> someone please help with my issue
[19:49] <w1nt3r> gp5st -- yes it tried to run the update manager again, but tells me that it can only run a partial upgrade. When I try to do that it give an error message that an upgrade from 10.04 to 8.04 is not supported.
[19:49] <bonkgr> Kjele:  The onboard (which was working fine) is a Broadcomm...The USB that I was working (for wireless N speeds) was using a Realtek driver RTL8192
[19:49] <zleap> nmvictor, not sure you probably have to direct the irc client via a proxy or something i really don't know
[19:50] <gp5st> w1nt3r: hmm, can you take it to 9.04 first?  there is a dpkg command to finish an interrupted apt install, though I forget what it is
[19:50] <jrib> gp5st, w1nt3r dpkg --configure -a
[19:50] <gp5st> thanks jrib:)
[19:50] <nmvictor> so is it possible to chat on irssi behind a proxy?
[19:51] <w1nt3r> It did upgrade the theme... and now it says my version is 10.04 --but I know its incomplete

[19:51] <vlt> Hello. I upgraded my koala installation to lucid and now my video driver isn't active anymore. When I choose "Hardware drivers" from the System menu it says that the recommended nvidia-173 is acitve and used. Any idea how to really activate it?
[19:51] <kjele> bonkgr: can you plug in the wifi and type "lsusb" in the terminal
[19:52] <w1nt3r> gp5st- and now it cannot connect to wireless network when running ubuntu (all settings are correct)
[19:52] <keyhive> does anyone know how I can stop the red <!> update notifier icon from appearing?
[19:52] <vlt> keyhive: By updating?
[19:52] <kjele> bonkgr: If you can give me a link to where you download the driver it would be nice too
[19:52] <keyhive> vlt: that's the thing, I have no pending updates!
[19:52] <keyhive> vlt: it shows up randomly
[19:52] <gp5st> w1nt3r: hmmm, you might be able to boot off of a boot cd, chroot and then do the dpkg command to try to finish it out? sorry, i really need to catch a bus
[19:53] <sjm> keyhive: stopping the update manager from running?
[19:53] <keyhive> sjm: that'll do it.  Thanks :)
[19:53] <nmvictor> phisher1: i have been here severally regarding this issue and usually someone suggested something like that, do you mind takin my hand through this, I am quite new to that and I really wanna make this work

[19:54] <totalnub> hey all, does anyone have problems with flash on 32bit lucid? runs for a bit and then "fast forwards" and the audio drops out. Just did a full reinstall because of this (amongst other things) and it still persists
[19:55] <ScoobyDoo> vit it does have a serial key, But not the name of the PC
[19:55] <bastidrazor> jungli: finch is a command line IM
[19:55] <Halitech> w1nt3r, there is no 'upgrade' cd
[19:55] <jungli> ok bastidrazor
[19:55] <jrib> w1nt3r: did you run the command I suggested?
[19:55] <phisher1> nmvictor: sudo apt-get intall openssh-server
[19:55] <fowlduck> so, we have some intermittent ec2 worker launching issues that i'm trying to diagnose. as part of that i'm trying to understand the relationship between upstart jobs and /etc/rcX.d
[19:55] <vlt> jungli: centericq is one of them
[19:56] <phisher1> then configure /etc/ssh/sshd_config to listen on ports like 80, 443
[19:56] <fowlduck> does anyone happen to understand that relationship?
[19:56] <sjm> w1nt3r: the "alternate" cd has the upgrader on it.
[19:56] <jungli> ok vlt
[19:56] <rocket16> Hello all, nice to see you again,
[19:56] <jrib> fowlduck: upstart runs throught the sysv-init scripts for backwards compatibility
[19:56] <jungli> and any application to litsen songs via terminal ?
[19:56] <edbian> jungli, mplayer is cli I think
[19:56] <sjm> jungli: mplayer
[19:56] <rocket16> jungli: Use mplayer, it can play songs in terminal
[19:57] <fixxxerm1t> I was running do-release-upgrade via ssh.  My ssh connection timed out.  The upgrader is still running (I have the pid).  How can I resume it?
[19:57] <fowlduck> jrib: does it respect the info blocks at the top of the init scripts?
[19:57] <jrib> jungli: use mpd, you will thank my later...
[19:57] <nmvictor> jungli: i like mocp
[19:57] <niko> gmplayer is a gtk player with mplayer behind
[19:57] <jrib> fowlduck: I am not aware
[19:57] <fowlduck> k, thanks
[19:57] <nmvictor> jungli: i like mocp (Music on Console Player)
[19:57] <rocket16> jungli: Use: sudo apt-get install mplayer to install it. Then, go to the Folder using cd command, and type: mplayer songname.mp3 (or any other extension)
[19:57] <bonkgr> kjele:  I was trying to find the link again (I'm on a diff computer) and I don't remember where I found it...
[19:58] <jungli> thanks edbian sjm rocket16 nmvictor
[19:58] <w1nt3r> jrib -- i'll login to ubuntu again to try it.

[19:59] <YurtleTheTurtle> The package texlive-pictures in lucid has the circuitikz package, but i'm currently running karmic and it appears circuitikz isn't included in the karmic version. Do I have any option other then to upgrade to lucid?
[19:59] <vlt> How can I find out which driver to use for a GeForce FX 5200 video card?
[19:59] <kjele> bonkgr: ok. But do you have th usb wifi plugged in?
[19:59] <nmvictor> jungli: you could also give mp3-blaster a thought, but its quite geekish
[19:59] <DrMrHorse> my grub 2 somehow ended up with a splash image. how do i remove it?
[19:59] <vlt> jungli: mplayer is fine for playing single files, mocd is great for organizing playlists too

[20:01] <jrib> jungli: i gave you the best one and you didn't even thank me :P  just kidding, but mpd really is what you want if you want to play music from a terminal

[20:02] <phisher1> rafaek: , yes, just put it before
[20:02] <Docteh> nmvictor: it wants you to do /usr/sbin/sshd stuff instead of just sshd stuff
[20:03] <jungli> jrib: sorry but i try i that one too thanks :)

[20:03] <Cyber-life> rocket16, Cool!
[20:04] <nmvictor> Docteh: i did that, i get :: Extra argument 80
[20:04] <sjm> rafaek: only list the local dns and put the other in as a forwarder in your local nameserver
[20:04] <bonkgr> kjele:  It came up with multiple ndiswrapper stuff, and no RTL entry...
[20:04] <Cyber-life> Hey rocket16, can i ask another question?

[20:05] <vlt> Hello. Is there anything I can do to start over installing a video driver after upgrading to lucid?
[20:05] <bonkgr> kjele:  ...as the driver, not module..
[20:05] <rocket16> Cyber-life: First cd to folder, then type: sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[20:05] <drizzt_> i'm trying to open file in gtk app but random one is opened instead WTF???!!!
[20:05] <kjele> bonkgr: Then we just need to remove ndiswrapper. "sudo apt-get remove --purge ndiswrapper-common"
[20:05] <sjm> rafaek: only have the local nameserver in your /etc/resolv.conf  put any external ones in the configuration of your local nameserver (192.168.x.x) for it to look up when it doesn't have the answer.
[20:05] <Cyber-life> rocket16, You are rocking! :D
[20:06] <sjm> rafaek:  the configuration of your local nameserver depends on what it is.
[20:06] <bonkgr> kjele: ok...I'll let you know when it's done...
[20:06] <rocket16> Cyber-life: :D

[20:08] <jrib> tripelb: no matter, it's almost unusable as an irc client
[20:08] <kjele> bonkgr: you might want to type "aptitude search ndiswrapper" to find all related packages.
[20:08] <freezzy> please can you help me to go to youtube from my pc :(
[20:08] <kjele> bonkgr: Try a reboot then

[20:09] <tripelb> empathy has a dropdown starting with "facebook chat" and IRC is not one of the options on it. So it seems to me that Empathy does not do IRC.  Fill me in on how I am wrong please.
[20:09] <rocket16> Cyber-life: Bye, see you again
[20:09] <kjele> bonkgr: Only if they have a "i" in front
[20:09] <Halitech> orangeglo, then chances are you don't, do you use wireless on the laptop?
[20:09] <tripelb> jrib, OK will take your advice
[20:10] <jrib> tripelb: http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/FAQ#IRC
[20:10] <bonkgr> kjele: ok...no "i"...rebooting...
[20:10] <orangeglo> halitech: yes i am using wifi on my laptop right now.

[20:10] <HanifBaloch> WELL I AM sorry there please help
[20:10] <freezzy> i can not go to youtube with opendns. can you please help me!...
[20:10] <userone> orangeglo: try using a router if you have one apre. that may be easier
[20:10] <rocket16> tripelb: It supports IRC,but the support is minimal in Empathy. For example, you can not add contacts there,
[20:11] <sjm> freezzy: this isn't an opendns support channel.  Check the web for configuration.
[20:11] <nmvictor> phisher1: are you still gonna help me?

[20:13] <walkah> anyone have any clue why rfkill keeps disabling wifi (intel 6200 - iwlagn) on my thinkpad x201?

[20:13] <sjm> freezzy: dns is dns.  check the dns configuration between the two clients.  (are you sure windows is using opendns?
[20:13] <rocket16> Rettaw: Is fast-user switching disabled?
[20:13] <freezzy> Halitech: no page is not logind on firefox or opera. and after 1-2 minutes it writes site not found :(
[20:14] <kjele> bonkgr: What graphic card do you use?
[20:14] <mezquitale> Rettaw, you kinda need to lock your account first and then try switching the user
[20:14] <bonkgr> kjele:  It's all onboard...Lenovo S10 Netbook...
[20:14] <freezzy> sjm: yes i am exatkly sure that i am using both of OS openDNS i check billion times :(
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> Freezzy: did you try google's dns service just to test?

[20:18] <kjele> bonkgr: Doesn't the machine have a wired connection?
[20:18] <bonkgr> kjele:  No xorg.conf...only xorg.conf-backup-100602120033, a few .dist-upgrade versions, a .failsafe...
[20:18] <Rettaw> rocket16: I don't think so. I've have tried to solve this before a while ago
[20:18] <sjm> freezzy: and you can ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[20:18] <freezzy> ActionParsnip:  i can go with vtunnel to ... maybe google dns will work but i can not use it. and i ant to learn why ubuntu can not. :( it is realy important..
[20:18] <rocket16> mezquitale: I am not blaming the software. That can be a configuration error, so reinstalling might help.
[20:18] <bonkgr> kjele:  If you mean wired network, yes...hooked up right now...

[20:19] <_PicAssO_> someone out there who uses mpd and has also this "pause-continue-bug"?
[20:19] <freezzy> sjm: no for proxy and ping.

[20:21] <Rettaw> mezquitale: no, I'm not sure how I would do that

[20:21] <ScoobyDoo> I've plugged my usb dvd drive in, And I need to mount it wine so I can burn dvds, But how do I find out where it's mounted too?
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> Freezzy: if you boot to an older kernel is it ok?
[20:22] <sjm> freezzy:  if you can't ping it you can't get there.
[20:22] <kjele> bonkgr: Do not try a reinstallation. Remove it first then install it again.
[20:22] <freezzy> ActionParsnip: i did not try. but i have did all updates now on ubuntu.
[20:22] <kjele> bonkgr: "apt-get remove --purge network-manager && apt-get install network-manager"
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> Scoobydoo: there are native burning apps for linux. I'm not sure you will be able to burn due to how burners are accessed raw and not via mount points
[20:23] <DrMrHorse> my grub 2 somehow ended up with a splash image. how do i remove it?
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> Scoobydoo: i'd ask in #winehq but I think you will be disappointed

[20:26] <tkrn> I just installed ubuntu, which i tried an early version and i love it now! I converted over from Fedora,
[20:26] <tkrn> really enjoy my experiance with ubuntu!
[20:26] <Hadi> Thanks ActionParsnip
[20:27] <edbian> tkrn, Why do you like ubuntu more than Fedora?
[20:27] <Freud_> Newbie question about remote desktoping into Ubuntu, wtaht's the "real" way to do it? I can "jump into" an active session via VNC, but cold start won't do that...
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> Freezzy: until you try a different dns I am unsure why there is an issue
[20:27] <anodesni> tkrn, only one step closer to Arch
[20:27] <kjele> bonkgr: When you are finished installing it restart the service by issuing "service network-manager restart"
[20:27] <DjDark> emerald theme disables, title bars dissappear...just seconds after putting "emeralrd--replace" in terminal. ideas?
[20:27] <edbian> anodesni, Arch is great
[20:27] <tkrn> edbian: it seems like more details are thought out
[20:27] <tkrn> it is a single cohesive working os
[20:27] <edbian> tkrn, Mhmm I can agree with that.
[20:27] <xangua> DjDark: do you have compiz enabled¿
[20:27] <anodesni> edbian, it's Ubuntu without the headages
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> !emerald | djdark
[20:27] <tkrn> in short, things just work!
[20:27] <edbian> anodesni, What is a headage ??
[20:27] <sjm> ActionParsnip:  he can't ping the Youtube IPs.  He can't get there.
[20:28] <kjele> bonkgr: To be honest the easiest thing to do is to reinstall Ubuntu while keeping user settings. But this way you will learn something too :)
[20:28] <freezzy>  ActionParsnip: thank you for helping me but i have to.. maybe we will talk it next time..
[20:28] <sim29> hi how r u?
[20:28] <tkrn> package manager is way better too!
[20:28] <guntbert> !ot | edbian
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> Sjm: could earlier though, its weird
[20:28] <DjDark> xangua, yes i do
[20:28] <anodesni> edbian, I'm sorry I mean headache
[20:28] <edbian> anodesni, Thanks
[20:28] <tkrn> I have a test in a half hour, but i thought ide hop in to tell let everyone i enjoy using ubuntu
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> Tkrn: many linux distros just work too

[20:29] <Hadi> How to know if i can run NewCamd on Ubuntu ?
[20:29] <Kyle__> I'm trying to get some ubuntu boxes to authenticate via ldap.  ldapsearch works, but it's not reading the server or base dn from /etc/ldap.conf.  Any ideas how to fix it?
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> !info newcamd
[20:30] <bonkgr> kjele:  got an error message:  restart:  Unknown instance...reinstall the os?
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Hadi: if its a windows app it may run in wine. Check the appdb for compatibility
[20:30] <Rettaw> mezquitale: well, tried that, doesn't work
[20:30] <CaptainTrek> Kyle__:  you might check with #ubuntu-server for that
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> Hadi: or there may be an equivelant
[20:30] <bonkgr> kjele:  sorry...the second part was my question, not part of the message...
[20:30] <kjele> bonkgr: check /etc/init.d/ and see if there is a file called network manager
[20:30] <Kyle__> CaptainTrek: This is the client end, not the server end.
[20:30] <CaptainTrek> Kyle__:  ah.  okay.
[20:30] <Kyle__> CaptainTrek: unless you're just thinking folks may have done this before.
[20:31] <bonkgr> kjele:  there is...
[20:31] <kyle_> anyone know if I can do asp in my ubuntu enviroment
[20:31] <CaptainTrek> Kyle__:  most likely its been done by people, and most likely the #ubuntu-server people have done it and can help you figure it out.  otherwise, wait here for someone to help you, i havent touched LDAP yet on any of my servers
[20:31] <drizzt_> what should I install so Python apps could check spelling?
[20:31] <rocket16> Rettaw: You need to reinstall the gnome-applets package, not the fast user switch one,

[20:32] <Freud_> Is there a awy to make sure Ubuntu desktop starts new session "by itself" from cold start? I can join existing session from VNC, but w/o kbd or monitor i can't start the session at it's designated place in the building...
[20:32] <kjele> bonkgr: "sh network-manager restart"
[20:32] <Kyle__> CaptainTrek: I sometimes try and avoid ldap, but it's actually a good thing, so I souldn't
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> Drizzt_: maybe: apt-cache search python | grep -i spell

[20:33] <guntbert> kyle_: thats a server question, isn't it?
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> Drizzt_: apt-cache is badass :)
[20:33] <Kyle__> guntbert: I'm working on the client end of it now though
[20:34] <_PicAssO_> someone out there who uses mpd and has also this "pause-continue-bug"?
[20:34] <guntbert> Kyle__:  I didn't mean you - there is kyle_  too ...
[20:34] <kyle_> might be server. - i write ASP, i have online servers
[20:35] <kyle_> But i like an offline area for building.
[20:35] <bonkgr> kjele:  "Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service network-manager restart
[20:35] <kjele> bonkgr: Don't care about that
[20:35] <guntbert> kyle_: then you better ask in #ubuntu-server I think
[20:35] <Kyle__> guntbert: Ah, sorry.
[20:35] <rocket16> _PicAssO_: Although offtopic, mplayer is better in many ways, if you wish to have a terminal player, :D

[20:36] <bsmith093> i have an amd64 computer, but im running i386 lucid. is it possible to run an amd64 program without reinstalling with the amd64 ubuntu?
[20:36] <_PicAssO_> rocket16, thx i know your point, but i personally like mpd best - if it works ;)
[20:36] <rocket16> _PicAssO_: No problem, :)
[20:36] <bonkgr> kjele: Not sure how...
[20:36] <guntbert> Kyle__: no problem,  it took me some time to recognize that there are two different people  :-)
[20:36] <kyle_> i didn't write Ah, sorry.  but it said I did
[20:37] <Monotoko> bsmith093, no sorry
[20:37] <bonkgr> kjele: I can reboot...
[20:37] <kyle_> we got two nicks almost the same or something?
[20:37] <Monotoko> 32bit ubuntu just sees your computer as a 32bit system
[20:37] <jrib> bsmith093: no
[20:37] <kjele> bonkgr: bah then reboot :) or just type exit
[20:37] <guntbert> kyle_: yes, you and Kyle__
[20:37] <bonkgr> kjele:  exit didn't work...
[20:37] <kyle_> Caps makes a diffrence?
[20:37] <bsmith093> can i recompile it to run on i386 or would that be so difficult as to be basically impossible?
[20:38] <kjele> bonkgr: aren't you in recovery mode?
[20:38] <jrib> bsmith093: deepends on "it" I imagine
[20:38] <bonkgr> kjele:  no, not recovery...
[20:38] <guntbert> kyle_: no, the additional underscore :-)
[20:38] <kjele> bonkgr: restart the system then. "sudo shutdown -r now"
[20:39] <bonkgr> kjele:  just typed sudo reboot...

[20:45] <kjele> bonkgr: You select manual partition.
[20:46] <DonaldShimoda> somebody experiments cpu load increments and finnaly totally blocked the system???
[20:46] <kjele> bonkgr: How many patitions do you have?
[20:46] <kjele> bonkgr: "fdisk -l" should list partitions
[20:46] <Somelauw> How to kill the fish
[20:47] <tflgen22> anyone have audio issues as of late?
[20:47] <vince_> drown it
[20:47] <mkanyicy> I used isomaster to put some .deb software on an ubuntu iso but now I cannot access them, how can I do that
[20:47] <tflgen22> i just installed all the current updates
[20:47] <Halitech> Somelauw, take it out of the water?
[20:47] <kjele> bonkgr: If you only have one then mount that partiotn to / and DO NOT format the disk and proceed with installation.
[20:47] <bonkgr> kjele:  something like 4 or 5...It came with a recovery partition, and I added linux, swap, and os partition for linux, plus windows partiton...
[20:47] <orangeglo> how can you purge iptables?
[20:48] <guntbert> orangeglo: you "flush" them with -F
[20:48] <orangeglo> -F iptables?
[20:48] <kjele> bonkgr: You have a separate /home ?
[20:48] <Rettaw> rocket16: how do you mean? 10.04 is the latest stable afaik. Also I had this in 9.* versions too : (
[20:49] <DonaldShimoda> somebody experiments cpu load increments and finnaly totally blocked the system???
[20:49] <tflgen22> my audio will play for about 30sec and then crackle out and go away. it happens with streaming audio and flash
[20:49] <kyle_> anyone using irssi ??
[20:49] <Baughn> Which kernel is used in the latest installation CD?
[20:49] <Baughn> kyle_: Er.. yeah, what of it?
[20:49] <blum> hi
[20:49] <bonkgr> kjele:  no...
[20:50] <kyle_> Baughn: How do I move up to view posts that have popped of the top of terminal
[20:50] <kjele> bonkgr: When you can boot into the live disk tell me.
[20:50] <Freud_> ubottu: will this work from cold start, seeing as i've setup ubuntu to login automatically and still get refused connection from vnc unless i actually do something on the actual desktop(using kvm-switch)
[20:50] <Baughn> kyle_: First off, they're not "posts".
[20:50] <Baughn> kyle_: ..try page up.
[20:50] <j2daosh> ok, back again
[20:50] <bonkgr> kjele: ok...it'll be a while...
[20:50] <kyle_> yeh, sorry
[20:50] <rocket16> Rettaw: I meant, update the packages of your 10.04 installation, not upgradation to another version.
[20:51] <kyle_> LOL, very simple !!!!!!!!  am i the fool
[20:51] <kjele> bonkgr: How fast is your connection?
[20:51] <jrib> Freud_: is your home encrypted?
[20:51] <guntbert> orangeglo: no, iptables -F    :-)
[20:51] <Kyle__> Humm.
[20:51] <Kyle__> Does anyone here know how to get ldap-users to appear in the login screen on 10.4?
[20:51] <bonkgr> It's fast...comcast high speed...
[20:52] <j2daosh> so im trying to do the offline repo thing so i can reinstall network-manager and get my internet back up on my netbook. I have downloaded all the repos for main/universe/multiverse, added the location to my sources.list file, did the apt-get update and it sees the location and reads in the packages, but when i do 'apt-get install network-manager' it says it can't find the file. I thought the...
[20:52] <j2daosh> ...repos are supposed to contain the files?
[20:52] <Freud_> jrib: hmm? see the noob flag on my hat when i talk to bots.... :)
[20:52] <kyle_> Kyle_: Did you build yourself a LDAP server or use a package?
[20:52] <jrib> Freud_: during install you were given the option to encrypt your home directory
[20:53] <nmvictor> I am using the sript url.pl in irssi  and i have set the browse_command as `w3m %u` which open the url on the same window i am chating on. IS their a way I could make it open the page in a nother terminal tab/window so i would keep chatting  on my window?
[20:53] <Freud_> jrib:  don't think so, how to tell?
[20:53] <jrib> Freud_: not sure
[20:53] <Kyle__> kyle_, are you speaking of the binary, or the data on it?  I used a package for the binary, and made my own very simple directory on it (which is sufficient for console login).
[20:53] <j2daosh> anyone?
[20:54] <antre> list
[20:54] <Rob_Z> are there known issues with apt no longer listening to certain environmental variables after upgrading to 10.04?  After I upgraded 10.04 doesn't seem to recognized the http_proxy variable. It's set but I don't see packets getting to the squid server. They now try to connect to the internet/sites directly.
[20:54] <jrib> Rob_Z: bugs.ubuntu.com is really the place to check for known issues
[20:54] <kyle_> Kyle_ Binary i guess.  what was the package name?
[20:54] <Freud_> Gotta catch a bus, i'l just leave the comp on for now and go home and google some...thx
[20:54] <Kyle__> openldap
[20:56] <timposey> Does anyone know of an openoffice irc channel where they actually will answer questions?  I have tried here on freenode.
[20:56]  * nmvictor
[20:57] <jrib> timposey: try other support options, check their website
[20:57] <davide> exit
[20:57] <Mike1949> I upgraded to 10.04 and now window colors (Gnome) are wrong.  Things like the grid lines in openoffice spreadsheet are too dim to see.  Has anyone else found this?
[20:57] <davide> \quit
[20:57] <Squideshi> Does the following mean that I need to install a different kernel before I can get a batchbuffer dump? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/Freeze#How%20to%20Get%20a%20Batchbuffer%20Dump%20%28-intel%20only%29
[20:57] <guntbert> Rob_Z: apt and proxies is often a source of confusion, there is a setting somewhere (?) but it is not always followed, sometimes we had even to reboot the machines
[20:58] <hadi57> hi, any body can help me fix my flash hardisk, it shows disk failure is imminent
[20:58] <blum> Mike1949: yeah, i have the same problem with audacity
[20:59] <timposey> jrib I have tried the forum but that is all I see.  I just can't understand why you have 60+ people on a channel and no one will say anything to you at all when you have a problem... it kinda defeats the purpose of the channel.
[20:59] <guntbert> timposey:   #openoffice.org  is the place, you will need a little patience though
[20:59] <docgnome_> i've got ubuntu 10.04 installed on a machine, getting no sound out of it. also not getting any errors. all channels are unmuted
[20:59] <Mike1949> Not just openoffice, but firefox and everything.  It was fine with Ubuntu 9
[20:59] <jrib> timposey: you usually need to wait longer on channels not as active as #ubuntu, wait at least a couple of hours, try different times of the day maybe
[21:00] <franc> ls
[21:00] <franc> oops sry
[21:00] <mkanyicy> timposey: what's your problem?
[21:00] <docgnome_> everything seems to be working just fine. but no audio comes out
[21:00] <docgnome_> known good headphones
[21:00] <adnc> does someone know if there is a sort of newsticker application does can scroll rss feed titles somehow on a panel?
[21:01] <vlt> Hello. After upgrade to 10.04 openoffice won't start, complaining it couldn't detect the UI language. Any idea?
[21:02] <antre> exit
[21:02] <docgnome_> weird thing is that the mic works just fine
[21:02] <frxstrem> is it possible to download files with the mms:// protocol?
[21:02] <docgnome_> just not audio output
[21:03] <mkanyicy> frxstrem: maybe trying to 'record' it may work
[21:03] <kjele> bonkgr: What is the progress?
[21:03] <Laeresh> Heey
[21:03] <hiexpo> hello all
[21:03] <timposey> mkanyicy merge will not work, it will not open the database source to see the field names to import.
[21:03] <frxstrem> mkanyicy: well, that would just take too long (I am talking about around three hours of video, and I won't just play back all that video just to record it)
[21:04] <panfist> i was under the impression that a 64 bit ubuntu installation was compatible with 32 bit packages...i got a message that this package is targeted at the wrong architecture (i386)
[21:04] <Mike1949> can I use a video driver from 9 in 10.04?
[21:05] <skulski> is there a reason why the single, text, S kernel parameters don't seem to work on 10.04?
[21:05] <hiexpo> 32 bit  will work on 64 bit system
[21:05] <skulski> am i mistaken? X crashes, and i need to install a new kernel, so i need to get to the console.
[21:05] <panfist> i'm in the package installer and it says status: wrong architecutre 'i386'
[21:06] <hiexpo> which is the better way to go
[21:06] <skulski> is this possible? (crtl+alt+f1 does not work)
[21:06] <timposey> I waited an hour and reposted, then one of the users came on and told me to stop reposting.  in all the time that I had been on, not a single person had posted anything... I told them I could understand that this was causing problems due to the huge number of questions and responses on the channel.  At least here someone will say, I don't have a clue if they don't know.
[21:06] <grimly> Hello Is it possible that ubuntu bug more than windows?
[21:06] <grimly> my ubuntu has a lots of bugs
[21:07] <mkanyicy> frxstrem: do the googling first - http://ubuntuhowtos.com/howtos/download_mms_stream
[21:07] <CaptainTrek> grimly:  what version of ubuntu
[21:07] <grimly> ubuntu 10.04
[21:07] <CaptainTrek> grimly:  clean install, or an upgrade?
[21:07] <grimly> clean
[21:07] <hiexpo> magine that
[21:07] <timposey> grimly is this a clean install or an upgrade? and what are you calling bugs
[21:07] <CaptainTrek> grimly: interesting...
[21:07] <grimly> its a clean install
[21:07] <panfist> is there any way to force installation of an i386 package in a 64 bit installation?
[21:08] <grimly> i've downloaded it from the website
[21:08] <grimly> burn it on cd
[21:08] <grimly> and installed it
[21:08] <grimly> well the types of bugs i have are more related to gnome
[21:08] <grimly> desktop
[21:08] <hiexpo> grimly, did you do a md5sum on it?
[21:08] <grimly> sometimes the computer freezes
[21:08] <gara> !list
[21:08] <j2daosh> where can i get the network-manager install files
[21:09] <grimly> md5sum? when i was burning the cd?
[21:09] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get install network-manager
[21:09] <grimly> well i did all that from windows
[21:09] <j2daosh> yeah, that would work... if i had internet
[21:10] <timposey> grimly what speed did you burn the cd at... it is recommended to burn at the lowest possible speed to insure less errors
[21:10] <bsmith093> how do i force sync the applications menu to the main menu thing in preferences, i have some entries that i deleted using the main menu in preferences but they have not dissappeared from the menu when i open it>
[21:10] <hiexpo> j2daosh,  well it shoulda been in the cd on install than
[21:10] <hadi57> any body can help me fix my flash hardisk, it shows disk failure is imminent
[21:10] <j2daosh> netbook, no cd-rom
[21:10] <etotheipi> do I have to use the alternate ISO to make a bootable flash drive with the alternate installer, or can I use the desktop version?
[21:10] <j2daosh> hadi57: you dont fix that
[21:11] <hiexpo> !ask | Hadi
[21:11] <j2daosh> you buy a new flash drive
[21:11] <timposey> grimly  that usually only causes the install to not function at all or stop in the middle of install
[21:11] <friTTe|> anyone know anything about UbuntuOne? havent been able to sync
[21:11] <bsmith093> hadi57: SMART data says the disk is failing? if so you're screwed backup to somethin buy a new drive
[21:12] <hiexpo> !ubuntuone | friTTe|
[21:12] <moonwatcher> hi
[21:12] <hadi57> no data, i was deleting the partition prior to install ubuntu
[21:12] <grimly> Well im using right now without problems but sometimes when i use skype it freezes
[21:12] <friTTe|> yeah got it all setup and stuff but doesnt seems to sync my Evolution contacts
[21:12] <hadi57> no problem the data
[21:12] <hadi57> hardisk cant be fixed?
[21:12] <moonwatcher> say, has there been any changes to nfs server or autfs lately, like in the last few weeks? My Mac system is having issues with nfs mounts from 10.04
[21:13] <moonwatcher> autofs
 do you have bugs sometimes?
[21:15] <moonwatcher> anyone? has no one else complained about it? that would be valuable information too...
[21:15] <grimly> timposey is there a way to verify systems errors? and auto fix it?
[21:17] <iWaldo> Damn, I think my hard drive might be failing
[21:17] <bastidrazor> etotheipi: you can use the desktop version to make a usb bootable
[21:17] <iWaldo> Or worse
[21:17] <viki> ubuntu 10.04 udev errors at bootup
[21:18] <etotheipi> bastidrazor: right. I was just wondering if that bootable will be the 'alternate' or 'desktop' flavour
[21:18] <bonkgr> kjele:  Download has 30 min remaining, and by the time it finishes, I have to go and come back later...
[21:18] <etotheipi> I guess it depends on the version I use to make it
[21:18] <kjele> bonkgr: By that time I might have felt asleep
[21:18] <bastidrazor> etotheipi: if you use the desktop iso it will be the desktop version
[21:19] <bonkgr> kjele:  so, I should be able to reinstall os to the partition without reformatting, right?
[21:19] <kjele> bonkgr: yes
[21:19] <bonkgr> kjele:  and that's all I should have to do?
[21:19] <bastidrazor> etotheipi: the cool thing about using a USB stick is you can make a persistant install on the USB
[21:19] <cesurasean> ive copied an existing debian /etc/network/interfaces file for my ubuntu installation, but no luck in getting the VM image to work correctly?
[21:20] <cesurasean> no internet connection
[21:20] <inconsiderable> Good day all , How to draw straight lines in gimp ?
[21:20] <dancek> inconsiderable, try #gimp
[21:20] <kjele> bonkgr: you select advance mode on the partition. Select the month point to / do not format and everything should go fine
[21:21] <inconsiderable> dancek:  tried before
[21:21] <kjele> bonkgr: mount*
[21:21] <mcl0vin> i am trying to unzip filename.LOG.gz so i did gunzip filename.LOG.gz but then i got gunzip:  filename.LOG: Read-only file system
[21:21] <tripelbier> 10.04 liveCD: I have 2 hard drives, one is good. The other is imminent-failure.  How do I tell which is the good, the bad?
[21:21] <dancek> inconsiderable, well, don't they answer?
[21:21] <etotheipi> inconsiderable: hold shift.
[21:21] <bonkgr> kjele:  I imagine I will lose settings...anything else?
[21:21] <etotheipi> it even says that in the status bar
[21:22] <tripelbier> 10.04 liveCD: I have 2 hard drives, one is good. The other is imminent-failure.  How do I tell which is the good, the bad?  (WD, Quantum)
[21:22] <etotheipi> and lo and behold, there's an entire section devoted to it in the manual: http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-tutorial-straight-lines.html
[21:22] <etotheipi> I'm not surprised they didn't answer.
[21:22] <kjele> bonkgr: if you do correctly you will keep you user settings but system-wide settings will be lost. Same with programs
[21:22] <tripelbier> is there a way to look at the hard drive brand in Ubuntu?
[21:23] <MikeH_> Do I need to do anything special to get the proprietary nvidia drivers in Ubuntu these days
[21:23] <VCoolio> mcl0vin: cp to your home folder, apparantly it can't write the extracted files in the folder it is in now
[21:23] <tripelbier> mikeh nope
[21:23] <hiexpo> anyone heard anything about getdeb?
[21:23] <mcl0vin> VCoolio: even when i am root
[21:24] <f00br> Hi, I screwed up my harddrive and broke GRUB. Now I'm running a 10.04 live cd, and it's not finding any of my partitions (/dev/hda1, /dev/hda2, etc). Does anyone know how to fix this?
[21:24] <bonkgr> kjele:  ok...thanks for your help!  Btw...where are you that you are going to sleep now?
[21:24] <MikeH_> tripelbier: Do proprietary drivers are there by default, including vdpau support?
[21:24] <tripelbier> MikeH_, you have to choose something like special effects in appearances that demands it then ubuntu will get the drivers
[21:24] <MikeH_> o
[21:24] <VCoolio> mcl0vin: where is that file now? if it is on a different partition disk that is mounted read-only even root is powerless
[21:24] <kjele> bonkgr: eu
[21:24] <cesurasean> ive copied an existing debian /etc/network/interfaces file for my ubuntu installation, but no luck in getting the VM image's internet to work correctly? ive even tried ifconfig up eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:24] <tripelbier> MikeH_, more I do not know. ask that to the general audience
[21:24] <bonkgr> kjele:  cool...I'm in IL, US...good night...
[21:25] <mcl0vin> VCoolio: how would i know that, every one here have access to this system
[21:25] <kjele> bonkgr: nite
[21:25] <tripelbier> hi kjele, do you know if I can tell what brand a HD is on my system?
[21:26] <VCoolio> mcl0vin: if it is a small file, just copy to a folder you own and extract there
[21:26] <dancek> tripelbier, i think 'hdparm -i' might tell that but can't test now
[21:27] <panfist> is there any way to force installation of an i386 package in a 64 bit installation?
[21:27] <fnawothnig> curious, is there a way to manually trigger media discovery? (there was no filesystem when i plugged it in - there is now - and i shouldn't have to replug it in...)
[21:28] <cloudThree> Hello there everybody. I'm on ubuntu 10.4 in a MSI AE 1900 ... touchscreen doesnt works properly. when I move to the right it goes to the left, any fix to that ? thanks
[21:28] <Sereph> cloudThree: turn it upside down ;)
[21:28] <guntbert> tripelbier: sudo lshw -class disk will tell you a lot about your disks
[21:28] <cloudThree> Sereph, besides that ? xD
[21:28] <chazco> Hi... i'm trying to downgrade from 10.04 to 9.10... i've cleared out most of the ".*" folders from my home directory... if I reinstall over the old installation will that be enough to make it work okay?
[21:29] <vince_> downgrading is a clever move
[21:30] <guntbert> vince_: irony is not in place here
[21:30] <chazco> cloudThree - I had some luck compiling an application called xinput_calibrator. Seems to detect swapped axes. There is a thread on ubuntuforums about it if you're looking for it
[21:31] <chazco> Not got much choice but to downgrade... broken graphics, broken boot process, broken sound, broken video playback...
[21:31] <Kuraiou> Hi. I'm having some serious problems getting mysql 5.1 working under Lucid Lynx...
[21:31] <thinkstu> Hello
[21:31] <dancek> panfist, i dunno if that even could work, but if you wanna force it you could download the .deb manually and 'dpkg -i' it
[21:31] <Kuraiou> it seems to be in a weird half-installed state where I can neither start nor stop it
[21:31] <thinkstu> I installed Lubuntu
[21:31] <tripelbier> dancek get nothing. thanks for trying
[21:31] <thinkstu> but after that I can't boot to vista
[21:31] <Kuraiou> and because the uninstall/reinstall/install scripts all call sudo start/stop mysql, they continually freeze and nothing can be done.
[21:31] <Kuraiou> A quick google search tells me that this problem is somewhat widespread, so has anyone figured out how to quash this?
[21:32] <arand> thinkstu: Try running "sudo update-grub" in lubintu
[21:32] <thinkstu> after I installed Lubuntu, I'm not able to boot from vista
[21:32] <tripelbier> I have 2 hd's mounted. one is good one is bad. How can I tell which physical HD is which. One is Quantum, One is Western Digital, IRL
[21:32] <thinkstu> Aragon, vista is listed in the Grup menu, but when I select it it just gives a curser
[21:32] <panfist> dancek well i was under the impression that a default 64 bit ubuntu still had a good capability to run i386 programs. this package doesn't tell me it's missing any libraries, just that it's the wrong architecture, period.
[21:32] <skulski> I am experience https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/554569 and trying to install new drivers. Does anyone know how I can boot into the console without switching to X first? Recovery mode still tries to switch to X which crashes my computer.
[21:33] <tripelbier> ok I'll disconnect one and reboot. fie.
[21:33] <stond> can someone tell if there is a way that I can turn my powerpc64 machine into a wireless router so I can connect online line with my video game consoles
[21:33] <thinkstu> arand, vista is listed in the Grup menu, but when I select it it just gives a curser
[21:33] <guntbert> tripelbier: did you run sudo lshw -class disk ? that should tell you all you need
[21:33] <cloudThree> chazco yeah ... I've been looking a lot. But without any look... i've tried with Xorgs configs ... with no chance =(
[21:33] <thinkstu> Aragon, the command didn't work
[21:33] <Whitorr> Hi all. I'm on a fesh (two day old) ground up install of Lucid. I just installed VLC and I'm trying to associate it with wmv files.  (and avi and mpg ...) So I right click on one of those file types, and I choose "Open with other application..." and a nother window pops up with a list of my apps in it... So I choose VLC (making sure that the "Remember this application..." is checked) but the next timeI double click on that file ... it o
[21:33] <Whitorr> pens in Totem movie player again... Any ideas? This used to work fine on my 9..04 bix
[21:33] <bastidrazor> tripelbier: sudo lshw -C disk
[21:34] <chazco> tripelbier - You might be able to get some info from the Disk Utility in the Admin menu...
[21:34] <dancek> panfist, might be, anyway the tip i gave should work though it's not fun to do more than once
[21:34] <panfist> ahh i see
[21:34] <tripelbier> guntbert, glad it took me so long bastidrazor chazCO i'LL TRY THAT first.
[21:34] <bastidrazor> tripelbier: you've been told this before.
[21:34] <chazco> cloudThree - which way are the axes wrong? (e.g. horizontal or vertical or both)
[21:34] <panfist> well the package was for a printer driver, and i've tried using a driver for a similar printer that's supported in ubuntu by default, and so far i haven't had any problems
[21:35] <cloudThree> chazco, both .... all is inverted
[21:35] <thinkstu> after install Lubuntu I wasn't able to boot from vista, does anyone knows why ?
[21:35] <cloudThree> chazco, turn it upside down is the nearest solution ... I've been in this like a week... =(
[21:35] <chazco> Sounds like the xinput_calibrator ought to be able to solve that... everythings done on the fly now for it, no xorg.confs
[21:36] <snippets> hello
[21:36] <tripelbier> chazco thanks a lot. twas easy. I now know which disk to label TRASH. And thanks all.
[21:37] <bastidrazor> cloudThree: System > Preferences > Monitors  .. you have the option to rotate the display
[21:37] <arand> thinkstu: I am guessing that the vista partition bootcode might've gone missing, would you mind running the bootinfo script detailed here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebinning (pastebin.org) the output?
[21:37] <cloudThree> bastidrazor, I know ... but I wont use the monitor turned =S
[21:38] <thinkstu> arand, let me try it one minute
[21:38] <bastidrazor> cloudThree: you won't use the monitor turned? meaning what?
[21:40] <cloudThree> bastidrazor, how do mantain the monitor standed ?
[21:40] <ghoulsblade> hi all, question about dolphin, i formatted a big usb drive to have a small fat32 and a big ext4 partition, dolphin only auto-detects the first it seems =(    added it to ftab, but don't wanna dismount via console all the time, how do i get dolphin to recognize it as removable drive ?
[21:40] <bastidrazor> cloudThree: i can not interpret your english.
[21:40] <Jerry1> Er, hi. Where do I go for help?

[21:41] <Jerry1> Awesome.
[21:41] <Kuraiou> Oh my god, mysqld.
[21:41] <Jerry1> Ok, well here's the issue. :I My stuff won't minimize.
[21:41] <barry_> join #lublin
[21:42] <Vigo> Whitorr: Did you try in Nautilus?
[21:42] <thinkstu> arand, this is the code http://pastebin.org/301665
[21:42] <cloudThree> bastidrazor, If i turn the monitor it won't continue standing ...
[21:42] <thinkstu> the result *
[21:42] <Jerry1> And it's quite annoying. T: I'm not entirely sure what to do.
[21:43] <guntbert> Jerry1: about what are you talking?
[21:43] <thinkstu> arand, .....
[21:43] <Jerry1> I can't minimize my windows or they disappear.
[21:43] <skulski> does single/text mode kernel parameter not work for anyone else?
[21:43] <Jerry1> They don't minimize to anywhere. They just go kaput!
[21:43] <bastidrazor> cloudThree: that is not an #ubuntu issue.
[21:43] <arand> thinkstu: Ok, if you look at sda2 there, you see that grub is installed to the bootcode of the ntfs partition ...
[21:43] <Jordan_U> thinkstu: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[21:44] <arand> thinkstu: Where you should have the windows bootcode instead
[21:44] <Vigo> Jerry1: I had that error, changed the Theme , fixed.
[21:44] <arand> Jordan_U: Already used bootinfoscript, and that page is empty...
[21:44] <Jerry1> It's just a theme issue? Let me see.
[21:45] <Whitor> Vigo, it is bizzare... this used to work for me in older installes ...
[21:45] <Jordan_U> arand: Copy the link, your client is simply parsing it incorrectly
[21:45] <arand> Jordan_U: Ahh.. oops
[21:45] <thinkstu> arand, I don't know
[21:45] <thinkstu> where ?
[21:45] <cloudThree> bastidrazor, the cursor goes to the left when you move it to the right ...
[21:46] <X-59> Hi I need help ;P
[21:46] <X-59> Hi someone want to help me? ñ_____ñ
[21:46] <Jerry1> Vigo: It's not a theme issue.
[21:46] <Vigo> Whitor: Yes, I just looked it up on Launchpad, one moment: is from 2007, so I am still looking. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+question/16789
[21:46] <arand> thinkstu: Ah, the wiki page linked by Jordan_U details all you need.
[21:47] <X-59> Hello help me :D
[21:47] <Jerry1> At least it doesn't seem to be. The best I can think of is it might be caused since I deleted the panels, then replaced them back in.
[21:47] <X-59> Someoe help me :D
[21:47] <animesh> hello x-59
[21:47] <Jerry1> But I don't understand why that would cause it to stop being able to minimize.
[21:47] <X-59> Hi animesh :D

[21:47] <Whitor> thaks Vigo looking too
[21:47] <thinkstu> arand, is there any fast solution cause I have some work to finish on windows
[21:47] <thinkstu> arand, please
[21:47] <X-59> Ok

[21:48] <animesh> your
[21:48] <Vigo> Jerry1: It was with me, I changed to Clearbooks , it worked. That is not the fix or a solution, but it was a workaround for me at the time.
[21:48] <bastidrazor> !panels | Jerry1 try this
[21:48] <X-59> My problem is that when i install ubuntu like a program on windows appear the logo and start but later appear a black window and nothing happen :D
[21:48] <Jordan_U> arand: thinkstu: In addition to what is stated in the link I gave you should also run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked to select install devices make sure that *no* partitions are selected, only whole drives. If you don't do this then grub will be written to the windows bootsector again when there are package upgrades. That command will also ask other questions, just leave them at their defaults (some will be blan
[21:49] <arand> Jordan_U: you got cut off at "(some will be blan"
[21:49] <Jerry1> ubottu: That worked.
[21:49] <Jerry1> I have no idea why. But it worked.
[21:50] <Jordan_U> arand: thinkstu: ... (some will be blank, that is normal)
[21:50] <FeedHunter> anyone know of a good IPTV app
[21:50] <Jerry1> Thanks bastidrazor.
[21:50] <thinkstu> Jordan_U, thank you
[21:50] <thinkstu> just let me test it
[21:50] <Bisu[Shield]> is there a json filter for gedit?

[21:53] <Appetite> is there any reason i can use an external screen on my laptop, but everything except certain videos show up on the external screen? for example, some videos only show up on the build-in screen, and not on the external, even though everything else is showing
[21:53] <yikesy> I'm getting "400 Bad Request"s when I try sudo apt-get update or installing packages. But if I paste the URL into Firefox, I can load the file. Any ideas?
[21:53] <Chacho> hello everyone
[21:53] <guntbert> Nic: I cannot imagine how those two things are related ...
[21:53] <platzhirsch> I forgot how to run makefiles, how does it work?
[21:54] <Chacho> I am trying to get some help in installing the b43 broadcomm drivers....
[21:54] <Whitorr> Vigo, I just went into gnome-default-applications-properties (per the link you provided) and to the multimedia tab... I chose custom, and put /usr/bin/vlc  (also tried just vlc)  and even though that setting remains... Nautilus still opens multimedia files in totem...
[21:54] <Nic> guntbert, apart from anything else that was in the Upgrade Manager after I downloaded the PPA pidgin had emailed me the link to get for a ubuntu upgrade I have no made any changes that I could think would cause this... and its sorta suck when you can turn ur comp on but not load the os :(
[21:54] <guntbert> platzhirsch: in the directory where the file is, type make
[21:55] <Guest62621> Hello.
[21:55] <Chacho> I entered 'lspci -vnn' in termina
[21:55] <platzhirsch> guntbert: No Targets.. damn what the..
[21:55] <Chacho> I get the information for my wireless card
[21:55] <Vigo> Whitorr: Hrm, a conflict resolution?
[21:55] <guntbert> platzhirsch: what are you trying to compile?
[21:55] <RayzrShrp> greetings everyone!
[21:55] <platzhirsch> guntbert: alternativly how to run install?
[21:55] <Chacho> I have a BCM4318 card
[21:55] <Whitorr> Vigo, what is that ?
[21:55] <platzhirsch> guntbert: well, some simulation stuff written in java, install and makefiles are there
[21:55] <RayzrShrp> I came back to ubuntu from Debian
[21:56] <NativeAngels> has anyone here installed ubuntu on a sunfire v100
[21:56] <Vigo> Whitorr: Still looking ,,,,
[21:56] <j2daosh> ok, im going to reinstall ubuntu since i cant figure out how to get network-manager back on my system. When i'm done with the reinstall, how cna i make a repo of ALL the packages to keep on a spare partition should i need them at a later date?
[21:56] <Whitorr> RayzrShrp, I thik of Ubuntu as a well configured debian
[21:56] <bihari> i cant able to install apt-get -y install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[21:57] <Whitorr> Vigo, don't kill yourself. this isn't critical
[21:57] <guntbert> platzhirsch: usually there is a README or INSTALL file, read them, the last step will always be: sudo make install  (but only the *last* step)
[21:57] <RayzrShrp> Whitorr: I agree. I checked out Fedora 13 but getting the nvidia drivers was too big a pita for me
[21:57] <bastidrazor> j2daosh: when you install them they are downloaded to /var/cache/apt/archives .. you can get the .debs from there.
[21:57] <gp5st> so, i have a member:computer i'm trying to install 10.04 on, and the boot cd boots no problem, I do the install, no errors, then boot the member:computer and i just come to a black screen after POST, no errors or messages. any help?
[21:57] <Whitorr> thanks though, much appreciated. Vigo
[21:57] <bihari> any one here
[21:57] <Naraz311> #channels
[21:57] <RayzrShrp> Whitorr: not to mention flash etc. etc. etc.
[21:57] <bihari> who can plz help me
[21:57] <Chacho> if  i type 'sudo apt-get  install b43-fwcutter' should that be enough to make it work
[21:57] <platzhirsch> guntbert: well seems they used non-generic paths for javac etc. I have to edit
[21:57] <rato> what is the meaning of TLS in some Ubuntu version ?! (i'm noob.)
[21:57] <Whitorr> RayzrShrp, exactly... Ubuntu just seems to have it all.
[21:58] <yikesy> any ideas why "sudo apt-get update" fails?
[21:58] <bihari> i need a help
[21:58] <bihari> plzzz
[21:58] <bastidrazor> !clone | j2daosh .. to get what applications/packages back you have now
[21:58] <ghoulsblade> hi all, rsync : is there a way to display total progress rather than per-file progress ?
[21:58] <guntbert> Nic: so it was some upgrade -- try to boot with an older kernel
[21:58] <bihari> tell me how can i install apt-get -y install sysvconfig
[21:58] <Whitorr> rato, LTS ??? Long time Support
[21:58] <RayzrShrp> Whitorr: don't get me wrong debian is nice but ubuntu is flashy and just works without configuring stuff
[21:58] <Whitorr> rato, TLS ... no idea
[21:58] <bastidrazor> j2daosh: that will allow you to run that and download everything you had before with one command.
[21:58] <Nic> I cannot boot into an older kernel it keeps saying unable to mount :S
[21:58] <drhodes> ghoulsblade: I do rsync -avP
[21:58] <Whitorr> debian is the guts of ubuntu
[21:59] <Chacho> if  i type 'sudo apt-get  install b43-fwcutter' should that be enough to make it work
[21:59] <Kuraiou> Yeah, I still can't get mysql-server-5.1 to install/uninstall properly. Does anyone have ANY clue?
[21:59] <Whitorr> Do Debian and Ubuntu parallel themselves with versiona ta ll ?
[21:59] <yikesy> Kauraiou: me too!
[21:59] <Whitorr> or kernels ?
[21:59] <j2daosh> bastidrazor: so i could make make a cron task '0 0 * * * cp /var/cache/apt/archives/* /spare/drive/ 2&>1' and then what? how can i then reinstall if need be?
[21:59] <guntbert> !ot | Whitorr
[21:59] <ghoulsblade> drhodes, which displays per file, but not really useful when transferring lots of files, but i guess rsync might not know how many files are left
[21:59] <Chacho> if  i type 'sudo apt-get  install b43-fwcutter' should that be enough to make it work
[21:59] <Whitorr> guntbert, thanks
[21:59] <Kuraiou> yikesy: yeah, I'm seeing a lot of comments about it online... I figured I wouldn't be the onlyo ne here.
[22:00] <Kuraiou> what have you tried?
[22:00] <Whitorr> RayzrShrp, we belong in #ubuntu-offtopic with that dialong
[22:00] <yikesy> i tried installing 5.1 and "sudo apt-get update", neither work
[22:00] <j2daosh> dpkg -i /spare/drive/{package_name}?
[22:00] <yikesy> there are tons of bad requests, but my internet connection is fine
[22:00] <RayzrShrp> Whitorr: nah that's all I had to say
[22:00] <RayzrShrp> Whitorr: :)
[22:00] <yikesy> i pasted some of the files in Firefox and they load, too
[22:01] <thinkstu> Jordan_U,  it didn't work
[22:01] <thinkstu> :(
[22:01] <bihari> i need a help
[22:01] <bihari> any one
[22:01] <bihari> ?
[22:01] <j2daosh> bihari: what do you need
[22:01] <NewWorld> !ask | bihari
[22:01] <Chacho> if  i type 'sudo apt-get  install b43-fwcutter' should that be enough to make it work
[22:01] <Whitorr> So... just curious... has anyone here gotten VLC to be their default media player in lucid?
[22:02] <RayzrShrp> Chacho: that should be enough to install whateber that is
[22:02] <j2daosh> ok, to all of you people typing !ask... stop. its pointless.
[22:02] <bihari> apt-get -y install sysvconfig << i am trying this
[22:02] <bihari> but not able to install
[22:02] <Nic> is there a way to restore a previous setup before an upgrade without internet access from the shell?!! I cant login to ubuntu 10.04 and have no net in the shell to upgrade or anything :S
[22:02] <slimjimflim> how to install opera on lucid
[22:02] <Chacho> I am having problems in setting up this wireless card
[22:02] <j2daosh> try 'sudo apt-get install sysvconfig'
[22:02] <Kuraiou> I have mysqld running by running from inside a terminal
[22:02] <bihari> apt-get -y install sysvconfig << i am trying this command but i cant able to install it
[22:02] <Kuraiou> but start and stop do not work.
[22:03] <Chacho> and from what I have been reading this should work....i just looking for a little more insight into this
[22:03] <j2daosh> what does it say bihari?
[22:03] <thinkstu> I need help, after I installed Lubutnu I'm not able to boot from Vista, when I select Vista from Grub menu it just give curser and nothing else :( anyone can help please
[22:03] <bihari> Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[22:03] <bihari> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

[22:03] <j2daosh> bihari:
[22:03] <j2daosh> use 'sudo'
[22:03] <bihari> yes
[22:03] <j2daosh> 'sudo apt-get install sysvconfig'
[22:03] <RayzrShrp> bihari: try using su -
[22:03] <RayzrShrp> bihari: then try running it
[22:04] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: don't recommend su -, use sudo -i instead
[22:04] <Appetite> is there any reason i can use an external screen on my laptop, but everything except certain videos show up on the external screen? for example, some videos only show up on the build-in screen, and not on the external, even though everything else is showing
[22:04] <Nic> when trying an apt-get install sysvconfig i get the result no installation candidate
[22:04] <j2daosh> RayzrShrp: don't give him any ideas. clearly, he needs to stick with sudo for now
[22:05] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: and in this case there should be no need for that anyway
[22:05] <bihari> thanks it working
[22:05] <j2daosh> your welcome
[22:05] <iAmerikan> How can I tell what source my package was updated from?
[22:05] <thinkstu>  no one can help me "(
[22:05] <RayzrShrp> so just out of my lust for knowledge when would it be needed to run su -?
[22:06] <Nic> j2daosh, Ive tried that with sudo also; no help... am stuck on the purple boot screen unable to load the login window!
[22:06] <bastidrazor> iAmerikan: apt-cache policy packagename ..will tell which repo it came from
[22:06] <freezway> Nic, can u get a terminal login?
[22:06] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: never - really   -- if you really need a root shell you use sudo -i
[22:06] <Nic> I can get into shell via the system restore option on the kernel in boot menu but this has no net to do any apt-get action online and im not sure how else to fix the issue
[22:06] <iAmerikan> TY much bastidrazor
[22:06] <j2daosh> thinkstu: u will need to edit the grub manually
[22:06] <bihari> apt-get -y install xinetd      ## why not. ? what does this command means?
[22:06] <Nic> freezway, Yes...
[22:06] <petrus> Appetite: the reason is that you driver/X windows cannot allocate enough memory for the external (secondary) screen
[22:06] <bastidrazor> iAmerikan: you're welcome.
[22:07] <j2daosh> !grub
[22:07] <guntbert> !root | RayzrShrp
[22:07] <thinkstu> j2daosh, I did but nothing happened :(
[22:07] <Appetite> petrus: ah ok, what is the best way to completely disable the built-in screen whenever a secondary gets plugged in? this way i wont run into this type of issue?
[22:07] <hsa2> hello
[22:07] <RayzrShrp> ubottu: thanks for the newsflash but i'm well aware of ubuntu and it's treatment of the root account
[22:07] <bastidrazor> RayzrShrp: in my opinion.. never
[22:07] <hsa2> i have just installed 10.04
[22:08] <hsa2> and i removed one of software sources, can you help me?
[22:08] <Whitorr> Vigo, Right click -> properties -> openwith     *** did work***
[22:08] <RayzrShrp> so sudo -i is what?
[22:08] <Whitorr> thanks for oyur help
[22:08] <thinkstu> j2daosh, the problem it goto vista parttion, but then it did nothing
[22:08] <freezway> can anyone help with my nvidia gfx card resolutions? worked fine out-of-the-box with the close driver the first time I installed, now it doesn't
[22:08] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: su always needs an enabled root password - so my hint was well deserved :-)
[22:08] <j2daosh> thinkstu, i dont use vista so im not sure about the boot. i know vista has a new boot menu
[22:08] <freezway> closed*
[22:08] <hsa2> here are my sources: http://omploader.org/vNGhnaQ
[22:08] <yikesy> kuraiou, how do you start it? /etc/init.d/mysql start?
[22:08] <bastidrazor> RayzrShrp: it gives you a root shell
[22:09] <hsa2> one of defaults is deleted
[22:09] <Kuraiou> yikesy: sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld
[22:09] <petrus> Appetite: some times just a fresh start (immediately after login) is enough, so the memory allocated to the primary screen can be reallocated
[22:09] <RayzrShrp> guntbert: ah ok i'll own that one :)
[22:09] <j2daosh> im sure grub can handle it, but i have never tried so i dont know what is different
[22:09] <Nic> now when trying to load the system restore option in the kernel I am getting fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2 /dev/sda6 has been mounted 35 toimes without being checked, check forced. - but I do not get any further once it has said this...
[22:09] <Vigo> Whitorr: Still looking at the Nautilus part, but if that worked, YIPEE! please post it to the Forums and Launchpad. Thank you.
[22:09] <Kuraiou> but while running mysql-repair --all-databases with it going I got "Got error: 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query when executing 'REPAIR TABLE ... "
[22:09] <Kuraiou> which is an error I was getting a lot back when it WAS working
[22:09] <j2daosh> nic: that means its doing a disk check
[22:09] <Kuraiou> mysql in LL is just plain messed up
[22:09] <Appetite> petrus: i just want to disable the primary (built in) screen and only use the external, how do i do that?
[22:09] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: :-)
[22:09] <Bigbang> the nerdy chat..
[22:09] <j2daosh> because it has been more then 35 days
[22:10] <j2daosh> so just let that run and finish, the bigger the drive the longer it takes
[22:10] <Nic> j2daosh, but its not doing anything it just freezes
[22:10] <freezway> !who | j2daosh
[22:10] <yikesy> Kuraiou i am changing my software source via System->Admin->Software sources
[22:10] <yikesy> don't know if it'll work yet
[22:11] <j2daosh> freeway, the person i was speaking with knows how it is
[22:11] <iAmerikan> So I just updated and my fglrx broke, it won't confiure, so anytime I try to use apt to reinstall it from another source, it first tries to configure, fails, then doesn't start apt
[22:11] <petrus> Appetite: otherwise, depending on your driver and hardware try to turn off your primary monitor: system --> preferences --> monitor
[22:11] <iAmerikan> configure*
[22:11] <RayzrShrp> hey guntbert what makes your whois show you as using a secure connection?
[22:11] <j2daosh> Nic, if you still have the live cd, use that to scan
[22:11] <Kuraiou> hrm.
[22:11] <petrus> Appetite: and/or if you are on a laptop some function key can do this too
[22:11] <Appetite> petrus: i am on a laptop.
[22:11] <j2daosh> it looks like you might have a bad handle or something isn't getting mounted and its getting stuck
[22:12] <iAmerikan> So I just updated and my fglrx broke, it won't configure, so anytime I try to use apt to reinstall it from another source, it first tries to configure, fails, then doesn't start apt. How can I downgrade my fglrx?
[22:12] <guntbert> RayzrShrp: because I do - if you want to know more about how freenode works please ask in #freenode
[22:12] <petrus> Appetite: usually <Fn><F7>, that works on my laptop
[22:12] <Nic> j2daosh, I do not have a cd at all I upgraded ubuntu via gnome so I dont actually have the dist burnt to disk ... and I am currently sitting in a terminal login unsure of what to do now as I cant login to grub as it doesnt make it to the login window and i am unsure how to repair this via terminal
[22:12] <Appetite> petrus: it isn't working on mine, the CRT/LCD is over f8 but that doesn't work either
[22:13] <KalEl> hello, i am going to by a 500gb hard disk and reinstall ubuntu. any recommendation on how much space i should leavce for ubuntu 10.04 desktop?
[22:13] <cloudThree> please can anybody help me ?
[22:13] <williamgeorgegar> hi
[22:13] <j2daosh> Nic, well you could always reboot, go into the older version, and try doing the upgrade again?
[22:13] <kyle_> 40GB
[22:13] <cloudThree> I'm on ubuntu 10.4 in a MSI AE 1900 ... touchscreen doesnt works properly. when I move to the right it goes to the left, any fix to that ? thanks
[22:14] <freezway> cloudThree, just ask the question, dont ask to ask
[22:14] <j2daosh> either that, or get a live disk from somewhere to use
[22:14] <Nic> I only have 2 kernels in the menu.lst file to select from and the oldest one doesn't load anything at all :S
[22:14] <williamgeorgegar> I have a windows 7 PC and an Ubuntu unit, I want to set the Ubuntu box up as a server with iits internet running adhoc from the desktop how would i go aboutdoing this
[22:14] <kyle_> is there a terminal based web browser
[22:14] <j2daosh> ....
[22:14] <Appetite> kyle_: elinks
[22:14] <Kuraiou> okay, I think I got it working
[22:14] <freezway> can anyone help with my nvidia gfx card resolutions? worked fine out-of-the-box with the close driver the first time I installed, now it doesn't
[22:14] <Kuraiou> via sudo apt-get remove mysql-server-5.1; sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.1
[22:15] <cloudThree> freezway, my touchsreen has the cursor direction inverted. Is a MSI AE1900 ...
[22:15] <j2daosh> ok, so you did an upgrade, and now you cant get logged in because booting up hangs at the disk check right?
[22:15] <guntbert> kyle_: w3m, lynx,...
[22:15] <Kuraiou> the problem I think might've been in the synaptic manager
[22:15] <williamgeorgegar>  I have a windows 7 PC and an Ubuntu unit, I want to set the Ubuntu box up as a server with iits internet running adhoc from the desktop how would i go aboutdoing this
[22:15] <Kuraiou> but I have to ask: what is with this debian_start mysql check crap?
[22:15] <petrus> Appetite: well, google for your specifics: laptop, OS version etc -- as a last resort you can create a special xconfig file, but it is a pain in the butt
[22:15] <Nic> yes
[22:15] <Nic> annoying as!!
[22:15] <freezway> cloudThree, try google? I am no touchscreen guru...
[22:15] <cloudThree> freezway, I did it already
[22:15] <mwen> can i get IRC on consolo?
[22:16] <Nic> this was an upgrade using the file you download from pidgin.im/ubuntu to upgrade pidgin
[22:16] <freezway> cloudThree, Sorry. =| i can't help...
[22:16] <KalEl> any recommendation if i should install 32bit or 64bit for my home computer?
[22:16] <j2daosh> nic, do you didn't upgrade the system, you just tried to upgrade pidgen?
[22:16] <bastidrazor> RayzrShrp: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/01/30/accessing-freenode-irc-network-via-ssl-secure-connection/  may help you
[22:16] <kyle_> LOL, that is amazing.
[22:17] <Nic> I just downloaded the PPA file from the url I listed before, clicked Upgrade Manager, check then upgrade
[22:17] <j2daosh> are you using the computer right now?
[22:17] <Nic> then rebooted.
[22:17] <j2daosh> ahhh
[22:17] <j2daosh> ok
[22:17] <guntbert> !google | freezway
[22:17] <j2daosh> so you did upgrade the whole system
[22:17] <Nic> well there was nothing else to upgrade
[22:17] <petrus> Appetite: once again, try the fresh start method: log out then log in, start the video, move the app to the external monitor, maximize it, chances are that'll work
[22:17] <bihari> what is nisdomin name?
[22:17] <Nic> it was last updated via the upgrade manager 2 days ago so i have not even opened the application since until today when i was attempting to upgrade pidgin
[22:17] <kyle_> OK, so can someone let me why you would use terminal web browsing
[22:18] <mwen> administrator_ can i get IRC on console? i´ll prefer!
[22:18] <j2daosh> yeah, i know. ok. well lets try bypassing the disk check and see what happens
[22:18] <Kuraiou> still getting mysql crashing all the freaking time...
[22:18] <petrus> Appetite: the video should be the first and only app to start, once you moved it, you can start other apps
[22:18]  * Kuraiou sighs.
[22:18] <guntbert> kyle_: asking for discussions in a support channel?  - please don't
[22:18] <j2daosh> i want you to do a 'more /etc/fstab'
[22:18] <Nic> ok then
[22:18] <kyle_> Soz
[22:19] <Nic> sudo or just general
[22:19] <Nic> ?
[22:19] <guntbert> mwen: irssi
[22:19] <j2daosh> and tell me the /dev/hd* lines
[22:19] <j2daosh> or the /dev/sd* lines
[22:19] <j2daosh> more should work
[22:19] <j2daosh> if not, sudo more /etc/fstab
[22:19] <Nic> ok
[22:19] <KalEl> hi... is there any expected drawback if i install the 64bit ubuntu? (i have 64 bit processor)
[22:19] <mwen> guntbert: like : apt-get install irssi?
[22:19] <lupin012345> no
[22:20] <guntbert> mwen: with sudo, yes
[22:20] <Kuraiou> General error: 2006 MySQL server has gone away
[22:20] <Kuraiou> this keeps happening
[22:20] <Nic> we have /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf , iso9660 usrer, noauto, exec, utf8 0 0
[22:20] <Kuraiou> over and over and over
[22:20] <haibane> So I was curious if anyoine could link me to or tell me a decent way to add ubuntu as a second OS to my MacBook Pro
[22:20] <RayzrShrp> simple enough thanks
[22:20] <mwen> guntbert: thanks. i gonna try.
[22:20] <KalEl> it says in the download site - "64-bit - Not recommended for daily desktop usage" - why is it not recommended?
[22:20] <guntbert> mwen: have fun :-)
[22:20] <j2daosh> im only interested in lines starting with '/dev/hd' or '/dev/sd'
[22:21] <Femaq> its kind of risky ;)
[22:21] <guntbert> KalEl: please give me the link to that page
[22:21] <j2daosh> something like /dev/hdb3       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[22:21] <KalEl> guntbert sure - http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[22:21] <Femaq> flash in 64 not god.. ;(
[22:21] <j2daosh> whatever one has the '         /        '
[22:21] <Nic> ok we have a # / was on /dev/sda6 during installation
[22:21] <Nic> and dev/scd0 with the other line i pasted before
[22:21] <Nic> no other results
[22:22] <haibane> Anybody have a good article on Mac installation of Ubuntu?
[22:22] <j2daosh> ....
[22:22] <j2daosh> pastebin it for me
[22:22] <mwen> guntbert: where r u?
[22:22] <j2daosh> !pastebin > Nic
[22:22] <haibane> as a second system
[22:22] <Nic> ok
[22:22] <guntbert> mwen: here
[22:22] <Jordan_U> Nic: What happens when you try to login?
[22:22] <haibane> Good talking to you guys. I've got to run
[22:22] <RayzrShrp> haibane: I seem to remember a while ago I downloaded a live version of ubuntu that could be booted on a powerbook
[22:22] <aikoniv> hey I'm having a weird issue but I'm not sure what search terms I would use to find a related bug in launchpad or to report it:
[22:23] <mwen> guntbert: funny! i mean country.
[22:23] <Nic> Jordan_U,  i dont get to the login screen to try,
[22:23] <RayzrShrp> haibane: is it a powerpc or intel powerbook
[22:23] <j2daosh> aikoniv: easy way would be to sttart by searching the application name with the bug in it
[22:23] <haibane> RayzrShrp I'm working with intel based chips
[22:23] <Nic> Jordan_U, the best I can do is a terminal login
[22:23] <RayzrShrp> haibane: oh my powerbook was a ppc
[22:23] <haibane> RayzrShrp its a macbook not a powerbook.
[22:23] <RayzrShrp> haibane: gotcha
[22:23] <guntbert> KalEl: I see that the first time - no idea why they say that
[22:23] <KalEl> guntbert thanks
[22:24] <RayzrShrp> haibane: well then you should be able to boot the live i386 of ubuntu
[22:24] <aikoniv> when I use my laptop with an external monitor, often (but not always) several types of video, including the webcam display in Skype and Cheese, the Rhythmbox visualization, and Totem video, are only visible in a 1-pixel strip at the top of the screen
[22:24] <haibane> RayzrShrp I'm running snow leopard, but would like to dual boot if possible more so as toy
[22:24] <guntbert> mwen: keep to support please
[22:24] <aikoniv> if I disable either the LVDS or the external display, it works fine
[22:24] <Nic> j2daosh, I cant do any of that I told you I dont have internet from the terminal login and im typing command results from a different machine
[22:24] <KalEl> how big a root partition should i reserve for working comfortably? i want to keep a separate very large partition for multimedia - which will be the rest of the hard disk
[22:24] <j2daosh> ahhh
[22:24] <j2daosh> well crap
[22:24] <haibane> RayzrShrp I know I can, but its the dual booting that gets me on an already established system
[22:24] <RayzrShrp> haibane: i know nothing about dual booting a mac but i'm sure there is a how-to somewhere out there
[22:24] <j2daosh> what is the command for finding your drives again?
[22:24] <guntbert> KalEl: I'v been  using the 64bit version for 3 years now - nothing bad happened
[22:24] <mwen> guntbert: ok. how i beggin?
[22:25] <Jordan_U> haibane: You install Ubuntu the same on a mac as on windows, with the the exception that you need to either hold option during boot to boot into Ubuntu after installing it or install rEFIt.
[22:25] <Jordan_U> haibane: s/on windows/on a standard PC/
[22:25] <j2daosh> Nic: sudo fdick -l
[22:25] <j2daosh> sudo fdisk -l
[22:25] <bihari>  NIS domainname  what it is?
[22:25] <KalEl> guntbert, i heard there are some problems with flash, and "lack of completeness for 64 bit packages especially codecs" - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=403064
[22:26] <haibane> Jordan_U I'm not familiar with installing windows on a mac as I've never had the need for it.
[22:26] <KalEl> guntbert did you face any such issue?
[22:26] <freezway> can anyone help with my nvidia gfx card resolutions? worked fine out-of-the-box with the close driver the first time I installed, now it doesn't
[22:26] <Nic> fuck i think a format would be better this 10.04 is shit.
[22:26] <haibane> Thanks guys, but I have to run. I guess I didn't allow enough time. I'll be back later tonight
[22:26] <Jordan_U> haibane: I meant installing Ubuntu on a mac is the same as installing Ubuntu to a standard PC. The "windows" bit was a typo.
[22:26] <bolster> freezway: what errors are you getting?
[22:27] <j2daosh> i think your gonna end up having to do that
[22:27] <Nic> ugh
[22:27] <Nic> new operating system time
[22:27] <Nic> cyas
[22:27] <j2daosh> i dont have my laptop booted into linux right now because im reformatting so im trying to do it from memory
[22:27] <RayzrShrp> anybody here running irssi
[22:28] <jakexks> probably many people
[22:28] <RayzrShrp> is there a shell to cli on irssi without having screen running?
[22:28] <RayzrShrp> i know ot but dont really wanna go join #irssi
[22:28] <jakexks> /exec ?
[22:28] <draod> KalEl: on a spare system, give all disk space to root partition, install all the apps you know/care about, measure the used space with df -h, and double that
[22:29] <freezway> bolster, none, just not the correct resloution
[22:29] <RayzrShrp> jakexks: thanks
[22:29] <dominicdinada> having a problem removing LAMP i get this code di@di:~$ sudo tasksel
[22:29] <dominicdinada> tasksel: aptitude failed (100)
[22:29] <iantlopp> I installed deluge in Ubuntu. it opens just fine, and I can double click a .torrent file and have it load deluge, but when I try to download and auto open a torrent file using firefox it doesn't show up as a selectable program... has it not installed properly, or is there something else I need to do?
[22:29] <freezway> bolster, i did a reinstall and the problem persists
[22:29] <KalEl> draod ahh thanks - last i measured it was about 8gb - so 16gb should be enough then (i will reinstall)
[22:29] <bolster> freezway: what resolution are you looking for and whar are you getting?
[22:30] <freezway> bolster, 1920x1080... i can get 1360x768'
[22:30] <dominicdinada> what is this refering to it cant remove LAMP ????? tasksel: aptitude failed (100)
[22:30] <iantlopp> I should clarify that if I right click a .torrent file and choose open with other app, Deluge does not show up, either.
[22:31] <freezway> quick question... do you need to restart the computer or just X to install a driver...
[22:31] <bolster> freezway: single monitor or duals? Try setting up a custom metamode in xorg.conf
[22:31] <bolster> need complete restart as its the easiest way to inject the kernel module that the installer compiles
[22:32] <freezway> bolster, single... I don't know how... Someone (DasEi) i think walked me through that yesterday, but to no avail
[22:33] <dominicdinada> what is this refering to it cant remove LAMP ????? tasksel: aptitude failed (100)
[22:33] <bolster> ok, so youve done the 'NVidia Installer_xxx.xxx.xxx' jazz, it walked through a few questions, probably complained about kernel stuff etc?
[22:34] <freezway> bolster, i have only installed drivers from "hardware drivers" and they CLAIM to have installed correctly...
[22:34] <Chacho> i did 'sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter' to install the drivers for my wireless card yet i still cant get it to work
[22:35] <bolster> ok, do you have 'NVidia X Server Settings' in the System>Admin menu?
[22:35] <SomethingElse> how do I run a file browser as root?
[22:36] <krysis> SomethingElse, just do alt+f2
[22:36] <krysis> then type in
[22:36] <krysis> "gksu nautilus"
[22:36] <freezway> bolster, yes, also plz add my name to you speaking... i need the ping sound
[22:36] <krysis> and enter ur password and it will open a root file manager
[22:36] <krysis> (assuming you have a admin user)
[22:37] <DjDark> anyone know about changing the splash screen?
[22:37] <Loshki> KalEl: I've personally never, ever gone over 5G... 10G should be plenty....
[22:37] <Chacho> can anyone help with the installation for a broadcomm wireless apater
[22:37] <KalEl> Loshki thanks a lot - i was beginning to thinking 16gb would be too much
[22:37] <Chacho> adapter
[22:38] <bolster> freezway: The nvidia drivers in the package manager are a bit outdated, I'd suggest getting the latest drivers (I have a notion they released new ones this week, but dont quote me) This is a great walkthrough of some of the usual pitfalls: freezway After that if should go sweet.
[22:38] <vince_> Chacho, what do you need ?
[22:38] <EvaLuaTe> hello world
[22:38] <b3n4dd1> \join #java
[22:38] <bolster> freezway Copied wrong thing : http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-nvidia-drivers-manually-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html
[22:38] <krysis> Chacho, have you updated your computer? Best way is to connect via Ethernet cable, do a refresh of cache and update via update manager. Then go into System>Administration>Hardware Drivers and it will be there to install
[22:38] <AndrewX192> What ccsm window class does gksu fall in?
[22:39] <Chacho> well I cant get the adapter to be recognized
[22:39] <vince_> +1 krysis
[22:39] <Jon--> I have issues with xbindkeys, doesn't start on startup, I have to rerun it randomly... How can I fix this?
[22:39] <Loshki> KalEl: well these days with 1,5TB disks, it hardly matters. I do find it handy to keep a spare 10G root partition pre-allocated, for backups/upgrades...
[22:39] <Chacho> I I have updated already
[22:39] <krysis> vince_,  whats the plus one for :P
[22:40] <freezway> bolster, do i need to reboot, or just restart X for the new drivers?
[22:40] <Chacho> 'ok krysis let me try to go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[22:40] <krysis> Chacho, tell me what you see
[22:41] <bastidrazor> freezway: restart of X .. log out then back in
[22:41] <bolster> Freezway:Definite reboot this time: Easier than trying to do it live. Scribble down some notes from the site incase you forget
[22:41] <boodu> re
[22:41] <Chacho> ok I see a window with Broadcom b43 wireless driver info
[22:41] <freezway> bastidrazor, bolster ok... i got two different answers....
[22:42] <Chacho> It says that the driver is active and currently in use
[22:42] <bastidrazor> freezway: you only need a restart of X. you can do a full reboot if you want.
[22:42] <vince_> Krysis, your solution for the broadcom thing
[22:42] <krysis> did you just activate it Chacho?
[22:42] <krysis> vince_, ah ty :P new to this system haha
[22:42] <bolster> bastidrazor freezway IANAE but for all the time it takes to reboot, I'd personally consider it safer
[22:42] <bsmith093> is it possible to manually change i386 lucid to amd64 lucid? my laptop is amd64, but im running i386 lucid and i want to run a 64bit-only linux game
[22:43] <Chacho> i just installed ubuntu 10.4
[22:43] <bolster> bsmith093:short answer no, needs reinstall
[22:43] <Jon--> I have issues with xbindkeys, doesn't start on startup, I have to rerun it randomly... How can I fix this?
[22:43] <freezway> bolster, k... reboot it is
[22:43] <arand> bsmith093: No, backup and reinstalling is ususally the _easiest_ way.
[22:43] <bsmith093> on a related note, is there a reliable adobe flash plugin nonfree for amd64 or is it still crap
[22:43] <Super_Cat_Frog1> hi - does anybody know of a script that will go through my music directory and make multiple cd's from it?
[22:43] <krysis> Chacho, ok, when u click on the wireless icon in the top right what do you see pop down?
[22:43] <Super_Cat_Frog1> i have a few cd's worth of music that I want to span multiple disks, without doing it manually preferably
[22:43] <iantlopp> how do you remove Transmission?
[22:44] <bolster> bsmith093 better than it was so its upgraded from shit to fugly
[22:44] <vince_> Chacho,  there are two broadcom drivers
[22:44] <krysis> iantlopp, go into Applications > Ubuntu Software Center > Search for Transmission > Remove
[22:44] <Chacho> the wireless icon on the top right has a red exclamation point
[22:44] <isam_> does ubuntu come with SSH client?
[22:44] <krysis> Chacho, if you click on it do you see wireless networks available?
[22:44] <bsmith093> does the flash plugin exist for amd64?
[22:44] <bastidrazor> isam_: client yes but the server requires openssh-server
[22:44] <Chacho> yes
[22:44] <iantlopp> krysis: Synaptic and aptitude both say that transmission is not installed.
[22:44] <Loshki> isam_: it does. /usr/bin/ssh
[22:44] <vince_> Chacho, I think it means the driver detects a wireless connection
[22:44] <sjm> isam_: openssh-client
[22:45] <Chacho> ok guys I got it
[22:45] <isam_> i mean ssh client like putty for windows
[22:45] <Chacho> thanx you guys very much
[22:45] <krysis> Chacho, cool, enjoy ubuntu =)
[22:45] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get remove rm transmission but the other waqy is easier willremove all un needed apps also
[22:45] <Chacho> for some reason I couldnt get this to work earlier
[22:45] <krysis> iantlopp, is it still in the Application > Internet  menu?
[22:45] <vince_> Chacho,  :)
[22:45] <colorlessprism> !query
[22:45] <bastidrazor> isam_: ssh from command line is your client and nothing like putty.
[22:45] <iantlopp> hiexpo: I did sudo apt-get purge transmission, also went to synaptic, doesn't show up.
[22:45] <iantlopp> krysis, yes, and it still loads up as if installed.
[22:45] <Chacho> thought maybe there was more to it
[22:45] <bolster> isam_ sudo apt-get install putty
[22:45] <Chacho> I appreciate the help
[22:46] <Chacho> one more thing....
[22:46] <krysis> iantlopp, open up a terminal, then put in: whereis transmission
[22:46] <krysis> iantlopp, tell me what comes up
[22:46] <Chacho> do u guys know how to setup irc in Empathy
[22:46] <bsmith093> is there a "repair install" (like in windows) for ubuntu yet?
[22:46] <bsmith093> chacho use pidgin its much easier
[22:46] <sjm> chacho: sudo apt-get install x-chat  (it's better)
[22:47] <iantlopp> transmission: /usr/bin/transmission /usr/share/transmission /usr/share/man/man1/transmission.1.gz
[22:47] <KalEl> does the ubuntu live cd or default installtion include an irc client which i can use to log in to #ubuntu?
[22:47] <krysis> bsmith093, what do you mean repair install? there are many methods of doing so but im not sure what feature of windows this is
[22:47] <krysis> KalEl, nope
[22:47] <KalEl> krysis wow
[22:47] <krysis> KalEl, you can use empathy though
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[22:47] <bolster> bsmith093 yes there is (as in boot from livecd repair installation menu item)
[22:47] <Chacho> ok let me check both of those out and see which one I like best
[22:47] <china_chenjie> ?
[22:47] <KalEl> krysis alright... thanks
[22:47] <china_chenjie> 有人会说中文吗
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo
[22:47] <bsmith093> is there an option on the livecd, or is there a seperate iso, that will detect a ubuntu install and try to fix it?
[22:48] <sjm> chacho: actually it's xchat (without the hyphen)
[22:48] <iantlopp> ActionParsnip... stop repeating yourself
[22:48] <acerimmer_> !cn|china_chenjie
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> bsmith093: you can chroot to the installed system and repair from there
[22:48] <bastidrazor> iantlopp: interesting.. possibly install it then uninstall it?
[22:48] <isam_> thanks guys
[22:49] <bastidrazor> ActionParsnip: one 'yo' less and no linewrap would have occured, here
[22:49] <iantlopp> rather annoying as I can't get deluge to work right, but can't get rid of Transmission
[22:49] <Chacho> bsmith093 and sjm can I get those thru ubuntu software center or synaptic package mnager
[22:49] <krysis> iantlopp, if you do sudo apt-get remove transmission  it tells you that it doesnt exist?
[22:49] <SomethingElse> how do I shut down my raid to get it ready for moving??
[22:49] <sjm> iantlopp: was it running when you tried to uninstall it?
[22:49] <china_chenjie> 晕。。没人能听懂。
[22:49] <iantlopp> sjm: no
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> bastidrazor: thought i'd mix it up, its usually 3 ;)
[22:49] <s3a> Could someone please tell me how to install grub to a usb hard drive through my live cd? (10.04) I'm trying to do "grub-install /dev/sda1" but that doesn't work
[22:49] <bsmith093> chacho yes sudo apt-get install pidgin
[22:49] <bastidrazor> iantlopp: i see the same weirdness here.
[22:49] <iantlopp> krysis, getting a strager one now... one moment.
[22:49] <bastidrazor> ActionParsnip: :)
[22:49] <sjm> chacho: synaptic or apt-get  (I haven't really used the software center)
[22:49] <Purpley> When I try to run sudo aptitude install  build-essential linux-headers-’uname -r’ I get This aptitude does not have Super Cow Powers. What do I do?
[22:49] <krysis> iantlopp, talk to me on private chan
[22:49] <Chacho> ok thanx
[22:50] <bsmith093> and sudo apt-get autoremove --purge empathy will purge empathy and all its dependencies
[22:50] <s3a> Purpley, is this not the first account created on that system?
[22:50] <china_chenjie> ？
[22:50] <china_chenjie> ／
[22:50] <china_chenjie> ／
[22:50] <china_chenjie> ／
[22:50] <FloodBot1> china_chenjie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:50] <Purpley> s3a, No it is
[22:50] <drizzt_> `uname -r`you meat?
[22:50] <bsmith093> s3a grub-install /dev/sda
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> bsmith093: not its dependancies, you need to run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[22:51] <Purpley> drizzt_, It says its going to remove packages not install them
[22:51] <SomethingElse> how do I shut down my raid to get it ready for moving??
[22:51] <bsmith093> it works both ways/
[22:51] <Chacho> ok xchat is irc only and pidgin is universal?
[22:51] <s3a> Purpley, so you can't do sudo anything?
[22:51] <Purpley> drizzt_, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-linksys-wusb54g-v4-wireless-in-ubuntu-gusty.html Im following that because im having trouble
[22:51] <bolster> Somethingelse: can you clarify?
[22:52] <sjm> chacho: I think so.  I use xchat for irc and pidgin for all other IMs
[22:52] <drizzt_> Purpley, wow, you've got Linux Dependancy Hell then
[22:52] <bsmith093> chacho im not sure about xchat, but yes pidgin runs practically every protocol
[22:52] <hiexpo> how do i re athinicate in freenode what is the link
[22:52] <freezway> bolster: could i have that link again?
[22:52] <bolster> freezway: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-nvidia-drivers-manually-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html
[22:52] <china_chenjie> oh no
[22:52] <Purpley> drizzt_, What do i do?
[22:52] <bastidrazor> Purpley: backticks.. `  ` beside the  1 key
[22:52] <s3a> bsmith093, http://pastebin.com/jLKGJvsp
[22:52] <Chacho> ok i researched  both of them really quick and that is what I got from the quick look
[22:52] <SomethingElse> I'm moving my raid 5 to another computer. How do I stop the raid so I can move it??
[22:52] <drizzt_> Purpley, could you paste athe aptitude output?
[22:53] <vince_> Chacho, true, xchat for IRC is pretty good, and pidgin does msn, icq, aim and things
[22:53] <hiexpo> !pidgin
[22:53] <iantlopp> vince_ is pidgin better than Empathy?
[22:53] <Purpley> drizzt_, Yeah sure give me a moment
[22:53] <vince_> iantlopp, well in my opinion it is
[22:53] <hiexpo> !better
[22:54] <iantlopp> vince_ as it's not a support related question, want to pm me why you feel so?
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: its a personal thig, some like empathy, some like pidgin
[22:54] <vince_> iantlopp, empathy is still buggy, less options than pidgin
[22:54] <iantlopp> really enjoying empathy, but having some... issues with it.
[22:54] <ramesh7a77u> hi
[22:54] <Chacho> I think Im going to try pidgin
[22:54] <hiexpo> pidgin
[22:54] <Purpley> drizzt_, Can I use this instead http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=rt2570
[22:54] <vince_> pidgin used to be the "official" client shipped with ubuntu
[22:54] <danfor> ah
[22:54] <hiexpo> works with all nots so buggy in my opion
[22:54] <ruffleS> guys i need help. my plymouth bootsplash is gone after i installed startupmanager. how can i put it back?
[22:55] <bolster> somethingelse:sorry dude, not a clue; in theory you should be able to keep the raid5 volume intact by just swapping the disks to the new mashine
[22:55] <SomethingElse> K, thanks..
[22:55] <Chacho> well now it is shipping with empathy
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> ruffleS: do you use an nvidia video card?
[22:55] <Chacho> just couldnt get irc to go

[23:03] <nadeem> hi guys i have a problem with my touchpad it make my ubuntu hang when i enable it. it was working but after updating my ubuntu this problem happen i had ubuntu 10.4 on hp dv6000
[23:03] <ActionParsnip> Chacho: i believe so, yes
[23:03] <drizzt_> X-59, press Esc
[23:03] <johnnyj> i'm seeing errors using the latest e2fsprogs in Karmic - http://pastebin.com/byA3AZJd
[23:03] <Appetite> bastidrazor: ok, but when i install 'w32codecs' it says it has no installation cantidate, what should i be installing?
[23:03] <drizzt_> drizzt_, or hold shift during booting
[23:04] <madara> Whenever I try to add a new user and click add user no window for it pops up. I also noticed if I am trying to install applications it does the same thing
[23:04] <etotheipi> bastidrazor, IanBaliadJr: thanks ;-)
 And it should works?
[23:04] <draod> Dave__: unrar x -p'MySecretPass' archive.rar
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: try adding the i8024.reset boot option
[23:04] <sjm> chacho, if you are only looking because IRC doesn't work with empathy, you could run empathy/xchat combination, too.
[23:04] <nadeem> how to do so???
[23:04] <drizzt_> X-59, remove quiet and splash keywords from command line and tell us what you see
[23:04] <johnnyj> when i reboot to a thumbdrive using Lucid to check the drive there's no errors found
[23:04] <Dave__> draod: im guessing thats without the ' '
[23:04] <X-59> Ok Wait :D
[23:04] <draod> Dave__: no, with.
[23:04] <Dave__> alright
[23:05] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: add it in /etc/default/grub
[23:05] <draod> Dave__: but it'll break if MySecretPass itself contains a '
[23:05] <Dave__> na it doesnt
[23:05] <draod> Dave__: lucky you :)
[23:05] <isam_>  I do a lot of online banking... do i need a firewall or antivirus with ubuntu?
[23:05] <nadeem> ActionParsnip can you put the line that i shoudl add
[23:05] <iantlopp> miserable worthless pile of crap... I can't get rid of Transmission to save my life :(
[23:05] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: add it in the quotes on this file: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[23:05] <Chacho> well empathy does run irc....just cant get it to go
[23:05] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: then run: sudo update-grub
[23:06] <wojciech> hi
[23:06] <Appetite> bastidrazor: also, after installing that packe you told me, i still get the error
[23:06] <Chacho> I think sjm is right....should just get xchat
[23:06] <iantlopp> Chacho: never use an IM program for IRC... you'll only hate yourself in the end.
[23:06] <Dave__> draod: it says : unrar: invalid option -- 'S' (The start of the password is S
[23:06] <iantlopp> Xchat is so much smoother
[23:06] <Dave__> draod:  it also asks me to enter the password when i run the command
[23:06] <drizzt_> isam_, antivirus are quite useless in Linux because most Linux malware are targeted scripts
[23:06] <iantlopp> of course that's just my opinion, but you'll find it's a lot of other people's opinion too.
[23:07] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: i've bee using pidgin for IRC since mandrake 7 was out and it was called gaim
[23:07] <draod> Dave__: mhh. leave out the -p... part and use the interactive mode
[23:07] <iantlopp> ActionParsnip, to each their own... I just can't stand the feel of IRC in an IM client
[23:07] <Appetite> Anyone know why w32codecs has no installation candidate if i ttry to install it? what should i be installing instead?
[23:07] <nadeem> thx
[23:07] <Dave__> what do you mean interactive mode? draod
[23:08] <iantlopp> does anyone know how to get rid of transmission properly? ubuntu is hating me right now.
[23:08] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: indeed, works here, doesn't feel like an IM client, and infact it is an irc client too ;)
[23:08] <draod> Dave__: i mean when it asks for the password, enter it
[23:08] <isam_> drizzt_: what about firewall & anti-spyware?
[23:08] <bastidrazor> Appetite: non-free-codecs from the medibuntu repository
[23:08] <MyWay> Appetite: i think you have to enable some repository
[23:08] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: sudo apt-get --purge remove transmission; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[23:08] <Dave__> draod: unrar: invalid archive 'x': Bad address
[23:08] <Appetite> bastidrazor: what sources.list line should i add?
[23:08] <iantlopp> ActionParsnip, but that's like saying Firefox with chatzilla is an IRC client... while technically true... shooting myself in the foot is technically a way to relieve the pain of a stubbed toe, as well.
[23:09] <bastidrazor> !medibuntu | Appetite
[23:09] <nadeem> ActionParsnip thx i did that but what is the relation between grub and this problem if you can answer me?
[23:09] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: a client is defined as connecting to a server to use the service, its an irc client
[23:09] <johnnyj> wow it's busy in here - is there a better place to pursue assistance with upgrading e2fsprogs on karmic?
[23:09] <jrluzetti> Alguem sabe como deixar as janelas transparentes
[23:09] <draod> Dave__: type only unrar  what's the first line of output?
[23:09] <jrluzetti> ?
[23:09] <drizzt_> isam_, i believe the standard firewall setting is block everything incoming like in windows
[23:09] <acerimmer_> !es|jrluzetti
[23:09] <PwrSurge> hi, anyone here know how to resolve the lockup issue with intel graphics?
[23:09] <iantlopp> ActionParsnip, that's what I said... but it doesn't mean it's a healthy one ;-p
[23:09] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: it adds an extra option which may make the touchpad nice
[23:09] <Loshki> !pt | jrluzetti
[23:09] <Dave__> draod: unrar: Archive not specified
[23:10] <jrluzetti> #ubuntu-br
[23:10] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: "healthy" or not, its still an irc client, the fact it can also chat on other protocols is moot
[23:10] <iantlopp> ActionParsnip, the purge didn't work... I tried to remove, purge, install then remove, get rid of it in Synaptic, etc... but it doesn't go byebye
[23:10] <madara> Hey guys when I try to add a new user and hit add it does nothing no windows come up or anything
[23:10] <isam_> drizzt_: thanks for the info
[23:10] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: run: dpkg -l | grep transmission
[23:10] <draod> Dave__: you *need* to get Roshal's unrar, the real one. i guess you've got an "unrar-free" or something. this is bogus
[23:10] <bastidrazor> madara: try from a terminal: sudo adduser newusername
[23:10] <nrg> ok, i HAVE to solve this issue
[23:11] <Dave__> yes draod i have, ill download the one you suggested and get back to you if i have more problems. Thanks
[23:11] <iantlopp> it shows up transmission-cli transmission-common and transmission-gtk
[23:11] <madara> Okay and what about applications it does the same thing to that too when I hit install not windows come up
[23:11] <ActionParsnip> nadeem: grub boots the kernel and passes the options you give it, sometimes that option makes touchpads nice
[23:11] <iantlopp> but it doesn't show the actual transmission package
[23:11] <nrg> everytime i go to http://www.windmobile.ca using firefox 3.6.x under lucid, my laptop freezes HARD
[23:11] <ActionParsnip> iantlopp: ok, remove those :)
[23:11] <nrg> only thing that still works is moving the mouse cursor
[23:12] <nadeem> ActionParsnip thx for your help
[23:12] <webPragmatist> nrg: flash?
[23:12] <nrg> either it locks up before the site still loads
[23:12] <bastidrazor> iantlopp: found it.. transmission-common transmission-gtk are the two packages you need to uninstall
[23:12] <nrg> or it locks up after a few minutes
[23:12] <|littlebear|> nrg: try using a proxy
[23:12] <johnnyj> another time then
[23:12] <webPragmatist> nrg: no it's probably flash
[23:12] <|littlebear|> nrg: http://proxy.littlebearz.com see if it freeeze up
[23:12] <webPragmatist> nrg: go download flashblock
[23:12] <nrg> i tried with the new 2.6.34 kernel
[23:12] <nrg> same thing
[23:13] <nrg> i even tried disabling flash
[23:13] <nrg> it still locks up
[23:13] <nrg> so it
[23:13] <nrg> it's not flash related
[23:13] <FloodBot1> nrg: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:13] <webPragmatist> nrg: are you sure?
[23:13] <webPragmatist> lol
[23:13] <iantlopp> yay! transmission byebye
[23:13] <iantlopp> now to get deluge workin
[23:13] <nrg> yes
[23:13] <norrec> i screwed up the smb.conf for samba and forgot to back up the orig and i'm trying to reinstall samba and cant get it to regenerate a new config, i even deleted /etc/samba after doing sudo apt-get purge samba
[23:13] <nrg> I had the flash plugin disabled in firefox
[23:14] <bastidrazor> iantlopp: in synaptic i did a search for tranmission. then looked for what was installed.
[23:14] <nrg> and my machine still locked up eventually
[23:14] <ActionParsnip> nrg: can you give a pastebin of: uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[23:14] <iantlopp> bastidrazor: I thought if the actual package - transmission, wasn't there, then the others were just libraries or dependencies, and not the actual program itself.
[23:14] <PwrSurge> that was my laptop that froze
[23:14] <PwrSurge> i'm on my PC right now
[23:14] <PwrSurge> will boot again
[23:15] <norrec> i screwed up the smb.conf for samba and forgot to back up the orig and i'm trying to reinstall samba and cant get it to regenerate a new config, i even deleted /etc/samba after doing sudo apt-get purge samba so where can i find a default smb.conf or get samba to regenerate the files in /etc/samba
[23:15] <madara> @bastidrazor what about applications it does the same thing to that too when I hit install not windows to install any program come u
[23:15] <Appetite> bastidrazor: i'm still getting a failed conversion
[23:15] <Appetite> bastidrazor: is there anything i may be missingg?
[23:15] <bsmith093> im trying to help someone over remote desktop connection can anyone give me a quick rundown of how to connect with that
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> norrec: http://pastebin.com/FArtgb37   untouched and unused
[23:16] <sergiorcfzx> hi
[23:16] <sergiorcfzx> everybody
[23:16] <bastidrazor> Appetite: i have not a clue.
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> norrec: ALWAYS ALWAYS backup the original BEFORE messing with conf files
[23:16] <bastidrazor> iantlopp: well tranmission-gtk is the graphical version.
[23:16] <bastidrazor> madara: uh, what?
[23:16] <owenll> !hi | sergiorcfzx
[23:17] <PwrSurge> ok booted
[23:17] <PwrSurge> standby
[23:17] <iantlopp> bastidrazor: that would about figure - heh
[23:17] <iantlopp> well it's gone, deluge is now properly installed, and all is right with the world (well, most anyway - heh)
[23:17] <madara> When I try to install any application the install button wont work it doesn't pop up a window installing the file
[23:18] <ActionParsnip> madara: can you use http://pastebin.com to give the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[23:19] <madara> Sorry what was that I clicked out
[23:19] <LinuxPhreak> I have some dos.img files and I want to add a program to the image. I don't know how to do this. I'm hoping their is a program like ISOMaster for img files. Any help would be great
[23:20] <owenll> madara: ActionParsnip asked you  - can you use http://pastebin.com to give the output of: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[23:20] <madara> alright
