[15:50] <erUSUL> nero: whanever you want "kill $pid_of_command"
[15:50] <kanzie> something like ls -R *.php | grep 'myword'
[15:50] <nero> erUSUL and Gnea thanks.. I think the $! is the way to go here (will also be running on an OS X machine which doesn't seem to have pidof)
[15:50] <Pici> kanzie: grep -R 'yourword' *.php
[15:50] <erUSUL> kanzie: use find
[15:50] <rocket16> For Gnome, which Chat client is best? I hate Chatzilla, but use XChat and Quassel (Konversation earlier)
[15:51] <toader> Hi, how to get a webpage and rename the page name? for exmple, wget http://mysite.com/index.htm  page1.html
[15:51] <erUSUL> nero: probably you have to install some psutils package or something
[15:51] <Gnea> kanzie: find . -name "*.php" -exec grep something {} \;
[15:51] <rocket16> So, using XChat on Gnome
[15:51] <alvon> hola
[15:51] <coz_> rocket16,  xchat and quassel are real nice
[15:51] <erUSUL> !es | alvon
[15:51] <terry> toader: rename  page1.html page2.html
[15:51] <rocket16> coz_: Yes, but Quassel is for KDE
[15:51] <coz_> rocket16,  true
[15:51] <alvon> hello
[15:52] <rocket16> coz_: Xchat is better then, for Gnome
[15:52] <coz_> rocket16,  I have been using xchat for about 7 tears now
[15:52] <rocket16> Hello alvon
[15:52] <alvon> wots
[15:52] <coz_> 7 years
[15:52] <rocket16> coz_: Me too, using it for 9 monthes
[15:52] <terry> coz_: haha, I like the way you put it the first time.
[15:52] <coz_> rocket16,  I would stick with it...get to know it well and you wont be sorry
[15:53] <rocket16> coz_: I already know it well, but more advanced features are in Quassel, and it is better. But I like Gnome on Laptop
[15:53] <zer0her0> ok so i tried slogging through the docs but i'm just to dense to pick it up quickly, wanna set win7 as my default boot in Grub 2
[15:53] <rocket16> So, wanted some speaicl Gnome-Chat-Client
[15:53] <Gnea> kanzie: add -H if you want the filenames
[15:53] <coz_> rocket16,  well if you install quassel you will also have to pull down the kde libs among many other things...it will work
[15:54] <flintwestwood> good morning every one
[15:54] <rocket16> zer0her0: Download KGrubEditor
[15:54] <coz_> rocket16,  depends on if you are gnome  lover and kde hater and dont want kde libs on your gnome install :)
[15:54] <rocket16> zer0her0: And use it to make Windows 7 the default
[15:54] <rocket16> coz_: I mainly like KDE, but use Gnome on Laptop, for more speed
[15:54] <zer0her0> rocket16: thank you
[15:54] <rocket16> zer0her0: No problem
[15:55] <kanzie> Gnea: thanks man, rock!
[15:55] <Gnea> kanzie: cheers
[15:55] <lorbrito> hi guys,,, i installed unr on my mini, and i have installed openjava/sdk and jre from the manager
[15:56] <lorbrito> but i want to know where the folder instalation are?
[15:56] <Myrtti> lorbrito: why?
[15:56] <erUSUL> lorbrito: dpkg -L packagename
[15:56] <rocket16> Ah, so is C++ the best language for Development? I am Java/Python developer with VB skills, but dislike C++
[15:56] <terry> lorbrito: Where java is?
[15:56] <lorbrito> cause im  using java whit c
[15:56] <erUSUL> rocket16: use python then
[15:57] <lorbrito> i know where the command is
[15:57] <rocket16> Yes, python is very nice, but it is interpreted
[15:57] <lorbrito> but i want to know the folder instalation
[15:57] <rocket16> And C++has a great advantage, that is, it is compiled
[15:57] <Pici> !ot
[15:57] <terry> lorbrito: as erUSUL says, you can do  dpkg -L |grep sdk
[15:57] <wzssyqa> rocket16: python can be compiled ,too
[15:57] <grepFu> When install dovecot on 8.04.2 LTS I get : chmod: cannot access `/var/run/dovecot': No such file or directory during the apt-get output and it fails, not sure how to fix it :(
[15:57] <lorbrito> ok, im goint to do it now
[15:58] <rocket16> Yes, but the compiled file can't be run, unless you have python
[15:58] <rocket16> We can use ./x.pyc, but only possible in case of machines having Python
[15:58] <KB1JWQ> Need to resize an image-- what's the most straightforward tool (CLI or GNOME ar both fine)
[15:58] <Tailsfan> Hi There, Is it possible to make a Dial-Up Server with Ubuntu?
[15:58] <Tailsfan> I wanted to make one for my Dreamcast
[15:58] <erUSUL> KB1JWQ: if it is only one you can use gimp
[15:59] <wzssyqa> rocket16: is there not a static complier?
[15:59] <Gnea> KB1JWQ: gimp for gui, convert (imagemagick) for cli
[15:59] <flintwestwood> Hi there, im running into an unusual problem. I currently have one of my computers hard wired into my router and the other 2 wireless. All 3 computers are running Karmic, updated to the latest kernel.I have a folder shared (via samba) from the wired computer thats empty.  When i transfer files to it, i get around 300 KB/sec to 700KB /sec from both wireless computers .. Is there any way i can get the transfer speeds to increase?
[15:59] <coz_> KB1JWQ,  is this a png  jpeg or svg image?
[15:59] <massa-pash>  /msg NickServ massa-pash Rfkfvfhb
[15:59] <rocket16> wzssyqa: There is, but it needs to have python libs
[15:59] <rocket16> to run
[16:00] <coz_> KB1JWQ,  you can also use imagemagick as well but i dont have the commands at hand to resize with imagemagick
[16:00] <meanburrito920_> anyone know what package has the QtCore dev libraries?
[16:00] <coz_> meanburrito920_,  hold on
[16:00] <rocket16> Is KDevelop having some its own 5GL language like Visual Basic?
[16:00] <terry> lorbrito: as erUSUL says, you can do  dpkg -L free-java-sdk  #Correction
[16:00] <erUSUL> flintwestwood: what wifi cards you use?
[16:00] <KB1JWQ> coz_: DOh, imagemagick is fine-- thanks!
[16:01] <coz_> meanburrito920_,  maybe  libqt4-dev
[16:01] <meanburrito920_> is there any sort of search I can do to find out what package has a given library? or is it just hunt and peck?
[16:01] <coz_> KB1JWQ,  ok :)
[16:01] <rocket16> KDevelop is nice, but I would like a VB like environment in Ubuntu, so does it have the own script?
[16:01] <Dr_Willis> rocket16:  i think theres 'gambas' thats similer
[16:02] <rocket16> Dr_Willis Yes, I tried that, but it is useless
[16:02] <rocket16> Dr_Willis Not so nice,
[16:02] <coz_> meanburrito920_,  you should probably go to system/preferences/administration/synaptic package manager  ...hit "Search"  type qt  and look for the qt -dev pacakages available
[16:02] <erUSUL> !info gambas2 | rocket16
[16:02] <flintwestwood> Im not sure how to pull it up, but i believe its an atheros
[16:02] <meanburrito920_> coz_ that had it
[16:02] <coz_> ok
[16:03] <rocket16> But can Gambus make executable programmes for Linux?
[16:03] <meanburrito920_> but still, there should be a simpler way to search for these things
[16:03] <toader> hi, when i use command "ls",  many filenames are listed, how can i get each filename as i need this filename into a for loop? thanks
[16:03] <lorbrito> hi
[16:03] <erUSUL> toader: use for file in *; do [something with] "$file"; done
[16:03] <KB1JWQ> toader: You do NOT want to use LS in a for loop.
[16:03] <erUSUL> toader: use « for file in *; do [something with] "$file"; done »
[16:04] <rocket16> can Gambus make executable programmes for Linux?
[16:04] <lorbrito> whit dpg -l|grep jre , its display that its installed the program i want, but how can i know where is it_
[16:04] <lorbrito> |
[16:04] <erUSUL> lorbrito: dpkg -L packagename
[16:04] <Dr_Willis> rocket16:  i find most 'visual basic' like things useless. :) id much rather use Python or similer
[16:04] <flintwestwood> both wireless computers are identical
[16:04] <lorbrito> -L doesnot work, its whit l not?
[16:04] <rocket16> Dr_Willis Yes, but it is fast to develop
[16:04] <flintwestwood> theyre both em250's
[16:04] <Pici> !offtopic | rocket16
[16:05] <erUSUL> flintwestwood: dunno maybe you have to force the speed up? sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M
[16:05] <rocket16> ok ok Pici, I understood,
[16:05] <flintwestwood> ok
[16:05] <rocket16> Athough it is part of Ubuntu too,
[16:05] <flintwestwood> thanks, ill give it a shot
[16:06] <flintwestwood> bingo, i have an atheros ar9285 in both wireless computers

[16:11] <toader> hi,  could anybody help me here ? http://dpaste.com/173724/
[16:12] <erUSUL> flintwestwood: i can not help further maybe if you install newer drivers via linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic package ?
[16:12] <erUSUL> toader: what are you trying to do ? why you grep jpeg images ?

[16:15] <NinoScript> Gnome-panel crashed when I tested an applet, now there's a weird square panel that sucks 97% of my CPU and I can't get rid off… I killed the process, but if I reopen gnome-panel it's still there. Where are configuration files for it? or how can I delete that panel? or at least restore the defaults?
[16:16] <erUSUL> Slade-: update-rc.d
[16:16] <DrHalan> hey i amusing lucid and can't find glibconfig.h anywhere. although i have the libglib-dev package installed
[16:16] <puneet_> i need to find the Number of exported function from .so file how to do it ?
[16:16] <grepFu> terry: same output
[16:16] <Slade-> erUSUL: man thats a real weird name. thanks
[16:17] <bazhang> DrHalan, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please
[16:17] <DopeGhoti> Slade-: the 'update' part is self-explanatory. rc.d is the directory where startup scripts are stored.
[16:17] <puneet> i need to find the Number of exported function from .so file how to do it ?
[16:17] <erUSUL> Slade-: this should do the trick sudo update-rc.d -f apache remove
[16:17] <Slade-> DopeGhoti: i guess thats logical :)
[16:17] <Trek> !repeat | puneet
[16:17] <terry> grepFu: apt-get install -f dovecot-common
[16:17] <Dr_Willis> does update-rc.d work with the Upstart based services? Ive never noticed
[16:18] <grepFu> terry: same output
[16:18] <DopeGhoti> Dr_Willis: Ubuntu currently uses upstart as a wrapper for rc.d scripts; it's kind of in transition now
[16:18] <erUSUL> Dr_Willis: no it does not... is apache now upstart managed ?

[16:24] <theadmin> flintwestwood: Activate "Join/Part Hiding" plugin and configure it
[16:24] <flintwestwood> thanks!
[16:25] <DopeGhoti> joebob: Yes. Then mount it, and if you get any errors, pastebin them as well as the output of 'ls /media/'

[16:26] <DopeGhoti> joebob: and how about ls /media/media/ ?
[16:27] <KB1JWQ> coz_: No worries.  You helped out, only fair that I give SOMETHING back. :-)
[16:27] <theadmin> Any idea why some menu items are disabled in Ubuntu defaultly?
[16:27] <coz_> :)
[16:27] <KB1JWQ> theadmin: Like what?
[16:27] <joebob> DopeGhoti, nothing returns
[16:27] <raven> erUSUL, but you mean there are still files able to rescue when two tools say there is no partition?
[16:27] <coz_> theadmin, disabled or the icons arent showing?
[16:27] <joebob> ls -la returns . and ..
[16:27] <theadmin> KB1JWQ, coz_: For instance, "Root Terminal" and, say, "GNOME Control Center" are disabled.
[16:27] <flintwestwood> I have the icons not showing issue on the system menu
[16:27] <erUSUL> raven: i say that first recover the partition table then after that use the file recovery tools
[16:28] <DopeGhoti> joebob: and what directory are you in when you are running the mount command?  Are you in /media/media/ ?
[16:28] <coz_> theadmin,  oh I see ...yeah I noticed that myself  ...someone made the decision not include them by default is all I can figure

[16:29] <raven> erUSUL, yes but is there still anything to rescue when different tools give no sign like that? otherwise i would skip it....
[16:29] <DopeGhoti> joebob: what filesysem is it?  It's odd to see -oloop on an actual partition
[16:29] <erUSUL> raven: that i dunno

[16:31] <theadmin> Bisu[Shield]: Huh?
[16:31] <joebob> DopeGhoti, actually it's not working now. Must have stopped working when I changed the UUID to /dev/sda3 in fstab...
[16:31] <joebob> now when I try to mount it gives me the same already mounted or busy...
[16:32] <DopeGhoti> joebob: could you give the output of 'mount'
[16:34] <joebob> DopeGhoti, http://pastebin.com/5dpQwfFB
[16:35] <theadmin> lololo: Stop that.
[16:35] <Trek> theadmin: what's lololo doing?
[16:36] <theadmin> Trek: He just changed the nick. Twice.
[16:36] <Trek> theadmin: you think the ops are needed here for it?  if you do, bother them in #ubuntu-ops
[16:37] <theadmin> Trek: Meh, he seemed to stop.
[16:37] <DopeGhoti> joebob: Well, it's pretty clear that /dev/sda3 is not in use.  So let's check the other half of the error you're getting.  sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp; sudo mount /deb/sda3 /mnt/tmp
[16:37] <theadmin> DopeGhoti: /deb/sda3? lolwut
[16:38] <DopeGhoti> joebob: 'dev' even. :p

[16:43] <Trek> joebob: what DopeGhoti said: can you pastebin sudo fdisk -l
[16:44] <lololo> mneptok, yes
[16:44] <meganerd> joebob: do you see anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog?  "sudo grep sda3 /var/log/message"
[16:44] <meganerd> joebob: do you see anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog?  "sudo grep sda3 /var/log/messages"
[16:44] <joebob> Trek, DopeGhoti http://pastebin.com/WxRKuPes
[16:44] <DopeGhoti> joebob: also, if you're doing a lot of pastebinning, you might look into the pastebnit package :)
[16:44] <mgoetze> hi... so, um, did lucid beta 1 actually get released yesterday?
[16:45] <joebob> meganerd, Mar 19 12:36:44 XBMCLive kernel: [    1.868275]  sda: sda1 sda2 < sda5 > sda3
[16:45] <Trek> joebob: and which partition are you attempting to mount?
[16:45] <meganerd> Trek: sda3
[16:45] <NetanelShinE> anyone :-0
[16:45] <joebob> Trek, /dev/sda3
[16:45] <bazhang> mgoetze, #ubuntu+1 for lucid please
[16:45] <eremite> Anyone know how to set a window to always below instead of always on top?
[16:46] <meganerd> joebob: I saw someone mention lsof, did you try "sudo lsof |grep sda3"?
[16:46] <asphael> hi i have donwload the ubuntu 9.10 and im trying to instal it but the problem is my dvd drive has broken so i download it and im tring to install it by harddrive but i dont know the procedur can some one explain
[16:46] <joebob> meganerd, fsck.ext2  576       root    3u      BLK        8,3 0x5140ec0000       2032 /dev/sda3
[16:46] <terry> detrix: So when you fire up xsane, does it give you 2 choices?   (Run xsane from cli and see what it says.)
[16:47] <meganerd> joebob: well, you can't mount a drive that is being checked.
[16:47] <bazhang> asphael, via usb flash drive key? unetbootin
[16:47] <Emanon> !usb-install
[16:47] <Emanon> !unetbootin
[16:47] <_UsUrPeR_> I'm trying to figure out why a network bridge I set up in /etc/network/interfaces is coming up *after* /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server is started (causing me to have to manually start dhcp3 every time the server boots. Can somebody check out this config file + syslog and tell me if they see anything suspicious?
[16:47] <_UsUrPeR_> http://pastebin.com/YZYHSN5w
[16:47] <Emanon> thats what i was looking for for asphael thanks bazhang
[16:47] <detrix> terry: No. it says "No devices available"
[16:47] <meganerd> joebob: do you have fsck running in a termincal somewhere or is this a hung process?
[16:48] <ardian> how do i start vnc server from command line\
[16:48] <Trek> meganerd: kill all terminal windows
[16:48] <joebob> meganerd, it isn't supposed to be checked? fstab says skip... no fsck running afaik
[16:48] <Emanon> eremite: you try messing with window rules in compiz settings?
[16:48] <meganerd> joebob: then try "sudo kill 576"
[16:49] <igoryonya> Hello, I have a disk activity around 60%, how can I check, what program is using it most intensively, so, I can figure out what to do with it?
[16:49] <joebob> meganerd, genius!
[16:49] <meganerd> joebob: then use "ps axf |grep fsck" to see if it is still running
[16:49] <detrix> terry: I even tried to run xsane through sudo.  Same thing.
[16:49] <joebob> mount -a worked now
[16:49] <meganerd> igoryonya: install iotop
[16:49] <eremite> Emanon: yeah, I already know hwo to do it in compiz by adding a rule to the window preferences, but I was wondering if there was a Metacity hack.
[16:49] <asphael> unetbootin i have tried and when i start the aplication it says to missing p7zip and mtools then i tried to instal by the internet and i get a soket error
[16:49] <ardian> how do i start vnc server from terminal ?
[16:49] <DopeGhoti> igoryonya: liik into iotop
[16:49] <erUSUL> igoryonya: iotop ?
[16:49] <terry> detrix: Running xsane via sudo is not good idea.
[16:49] <Emanon> dont think there is a always on bottom option for gdm
[16:49] <igoryonya> ok, thanx
[16:49] <DopeGhoti> erUSUL: it's like top, but for disk I/O rather than CPU/RAM usage
[16:49] <Emanon> there is one for kdm i think but thats no help to you eremite
[16:49] <terry> detrix: and that may be the problem.
[16:49] <meganerd> joebob: sometimes that does not work, you may want to try kill -9 <pid>, sometimes that also does not work and you have to reboot.
[16:50] <erUSUL> DopeGhoti: i know
[16:50] <asphael> now i have download it and want to instal it by boting the instalation in my hard drive
[16:50] <detrix> terry: yeah I saw the warning.  I just wanted to see if it would work that way.
[16:50] <eremite> Emanon: yeah, no help to me.   :D
[16:52] <meganerd> joebob: NP, just checking cause I should go back to work now :)
[16:53] <bazhang> asphael, not sure if that is in the suse repos or not, does your computer allow for boot from usb?
[16:53] <terry> detrix: use the info you get from sane-find-scanner
[16:53] <joebob> yeah thx 2 DopeGhoti
[16:53] <joebob> ok make some money meganerd ;)
[16:53]  * DopeGhoti spends too much time not doing his job and helping here.  I'd love to get paid to be here :)
[16:53] <meganerd> joebob: that is the plan, though it is all oil and gas here, so kind of sketchy at the moment
[16:53] <detrix> terry: thanks for your help.  working on that.
[16:54] <terry> DopeGhoti: Your not getting paid?
[16:54] <joebob> meganerd, so on reboot it doesn't mount...
[16:54] <knittl> hi. which package provides the java spring framework?
[16:54] <joebob> meganerd, still running fsck... :(
[16:54] <meganerd> joebob: OK, there may be something wrong with the partition.  Kill any fsck process and then manually scan the partition.  You may want to consider ext3
[16:55] <asphael> i dont think so and i donte have a pendrive either  but i have the ubuntu iso image here i just want to copy the files need to the hard drive and star the instalation by there
[16:55] <joebob> meganerd, what do you mean consider ext3?
[16:55] <meganerd> joebob: isn't the partition ext2?
[16:55] <joebob> no
[16:55] <bazhang> asphael, using grub2?
[16:55] <DopeGhoti> asphael: you could use something like dæmontools to mount the ISO as a virtual drive and do a wubi install from there
[16:55] <terry> joebob: He means consider using the filesystem "ext3" next time...
[16:56] <histo> Alright looking for the easiest way to do this. I have a Music folder on my media server and I need to chmod allt he mp3's to read only they are in sub directories in music ex: music/artist/album/blah.mp3
[16:56] <meganerd> joebob: sudo parted /dev/sda print
[16:56] <NetanelShinE> anyone can help me to mount my usb modem :|
[16:56] <histo> Trying to fix the taglib problem with mediatomb
[16:56] <joebob> meganerd, installing parted
[16:56] <terry> NetanelShinE: lsusb
[16:56] <NetanelShinE> hes there.
[16:56] <NetanelShinE> but dont mount.

[16:57] <joebob> meganerd, http://pastebin.com/Zy7GZCbn
[16:57] <meganerd> joebob: oh sorry, forgot to mention that.  That is always installed for me (I have a list of packages that I install whenever I do a clean install).
[16:57] <meganerd> joebob: never mind then, I thought I saw ext2... must be seeing things
[16:57] <terry> NetanelShinE: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1017630.html
[16:57] <asphael> isnt there a way to mount the iso file in the hard drive and load the instalation from there ?
[16:57] <joebob> ok. I'll play around. thx for the help meganerd
[16:58] <NetanelShinE> terry, aleardy try that
[16:58] <meganerd> joebob: ok, sudo fsck.ext3 -cfv /dev/sda3"
[16:58] <meganerd> joebob: erm, "sudo fsck.ext3 -cfv /dev/sda3"
[16:59] <histo> If I do something like chmod a-w -R *.* won't that change the directories permissions also?
[16:59] <jrib> histo: only if they have a '.' in their name...
[16:59] <asphael> and no i think its grub 1
[16:59] <mneptok> histo: do NOT use *.*
[16:59] <igoryonya> In software sources, I deleted all of the cdrom sources from third-party software tab. I've had some problems with them, so I thought, I would delete them and readd again. Before, I had 4 or 5 entries from each repo cdrom with varying strings, but now, that I add them again, they only add one entry. I've done an internet update between the first time I added these cd repos and now. Does it...
[16:59] <igoryonya> ...mean that my repos did not get completley indexed by package manager, or it's normal a behaviour after an update?
[16:59] <mneptok> histo: that will change the permissions of your entire filesystem. not just the dir you are in.
[17:00] <unop> mneptok, what?
[17:00] <aaron11> can someone help me. My gwibber has gone wild with all of the twitter public posts. The NotifyOSD thing is now continiously showing retweets! OMG! Help me
[17:00] <histo> mneptok: No no I would add a path infront
[17:00] <unop> mneptok, how's that possible?
[17:00] <histo> mneptok: chmod a-w -R /blah/Music/*.*
[17:00] <meganerd> joebob: gotta go for real now.  If I see you around later let me know how it went.
[17:00] <mneptok> unop: ./ and ../ are entries in every directory.
[17:00] <joebob> ok
[17:00] <mneptok> histo: that makes sense
[17:01] <unop> histo, no. just do chmod a-w -R /path/to/*
[17:01] <histo> mneptok: Wouldn't that remove write from all the directories also and not just the mp3 files in sub directoires?
[17:01] <BrixSat> well wiki did not helped nothing :( still no windows 7 on grub menu :'( :'(
[17:01] <detrix> terry: Well of course Epson vender is supported (0x04b8) but product ID is not (0xx827) but it supports RX-600 and RX-700. I thought that a subversion like mine (RX-580) would work with RX-500 driver.  Is this not so?
[17:01] <unop> mneptok, . and .. are not expanded by a glob like *.*  (by default atleast)
[17:01] <histo> unop: mneptok I'm looking for a way just to maek the mp3's readonly not all the directories they are contained in.
[17:01] <jrib> histo: *.* only matches files with a '.' in the name
[17:01] <detrix> terry: Product ID (0x0827)
[17:01] <mneptok> histo: i'd use xargs to do that.
[17:02] <adityag> i did a *USB start up disk creator*, installed all the updates, while installing it asked me for some grud select disk, i did not select any disk, in short i cancelled it. now when i. reboot from USB stick, it does not boot. pls help as i dont want to waste bandwidth downloading the packages back again
[17:02] <unop> histo,  find /path/to/mp3s/  -iname "*.mp3" -exec chmod a-w {} +
[17:02] <histo> unop: yeah that makes more sense
[17:02] <adityag> GRUB^
[17:03] <histo> unop: what are the brackets for there? {}
[17:03] <BrixSat> adityag,  i have grub problems :p able to help?
[17:03] <adityag> even i have the same probz, u can reinstall the grub
[17:03] <unop> histo,  that tells find to substitute the filename of the file found in that expression ..
[17:03] <histo> unop: k
[17:03] <histo> unop: and the plus was a typo?
[17:04] <unop> histo, nope, it's needed
[17:04] <histo> unop: what does that operator do?
[17:04] <igoryonya> I am adding repo dvds to software sources, only one entry per dvd is added. It was 4 or 5 entries per dvd after fresh install. Is something wrong and they don't get indexed completley or it's a normal behaviour after an internet update. I have Ubuntu 8.10.
[17:04] <BugeyeD> anyone here running gutsy? can you confirm that scoansi is in the terminfo database?
[17:04] <adityag> i did a *USB start up disk creator*, installed all the updates, while installing it asked me for some grub select disk, i did not select any disk, in short i cancelled it. now when i reboot from USB stick, it does not boot. pls help as i dont want to waste bandwidth downloading the packages back again
[17:04] <BugeyeD> or better yet, can someone point me to scoansi usable with any version of ubuntu?
[17:05] <unop> histo,  errm, tells find to pass as many filenames as it can to -exec -- so in this case you have chmod operating on more than one file at a time
[17:05] <unop> histo,  http://mywiki.wooledge.org/UsingFind
[17:05] <asphael> what is a wubi instalation

[17:07] <BrixSat> well wiki did not helped nothing :( still no windows 7 on grub menu :'( :'(
[17:07] <minid33> I have git installed
[17:08] <minid33> why doesnt it find the repo command
[17:08] <minid33> ?
[17:08] <jrib> minid33: "the repo command"?
[17:08] <minid33> init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b android-1.6_r2
[17:08] <minid33> starts "repo init"
[17:09] <jrib> minid33: erm, don't you usually do "git init", etc.?
[17:09] <igoryonya> When i add repo dvds it only adds one entry, but when I did it on freshly installed system, it added several entries to the software sources. is it normal? does it mean that my dvds didn't get completley indexed, or is it because of some update?
[17:09] <minid33> ok
[17:09] <yotta911> Hi. The kubuntu 8.10 will be LTS?

[17:13] <HypothesisFrog> hi. Some process on my ubuntu linux system keeps trying to access port 1900 every two minutes. Is there any way I can found out what process that is?
[17:13] <juboba> try wine
[17:13] <adityag> i did a *USB start up disk creator*, installed all the updates, while installing it asked me for some grub select disk, i did not select any disk, in short i cancelled it. now when i reboot from USB stick, it does not boot. pls help as i dont want to waste bandwidth downloading the packages back again
[17:14] <Younder> HypothesisFrog, netstat
[17:14] <pinkpanther> iv tried it but i dont understand it tbh
[17:14] <juboba> go to http://appdb.winehq.org/
[17:14] <juboba> and look 4 ur game
[17:14] <asphael> im with this articles open here
[17:14] <HypothesisFrog> Younder netstat doesn't show anything trying to access port 1900. The process is intermittent.
[17:14] <Losha> asphael: for install direct from the hard drive I assume you'll be using unetbootin?
[17:14] <Younder> HypothesisFrog, UFW can be set to block the port if it is a problem
[17:15] <HypothesisFrog> Younder it may or may not be a problem. I just want to find out what the process is. Is there a way I can do that?

[17:24] <raven> diwant, many plugins?
[17:24] <djzn> where is the offtopic channel
[17:24] <Pici> zack: Their official support channel is #nagios if you don't find any help in an Ubuntu channel.
[17:24] <Pici> djzn: #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:24] <diwant> No, I have disabled everything except adblock and firebug
[17:24] <raven> diwant, you could try to delete the cache
[17:24] <raven> perhaps that it is
[17:24] <diwant> I'll try that
[17:25] <Evet> 3-finger touchpad assigned to middle button. how to change it to 2-finger?

[17:25] <Pici> !ask
[17:25] <peyton_westlake> I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me a little bit more than I was able to figure out with moderate research the way Ubuntu uses RAM, and if there might be a tip I haven't found that would better suit my computing needs?
[17:25] <xNeox> i updated my wireless network card and lots of other stuff
[17:26] <Travis-42> Until 9.10, my computer always woke from suspend using the keyboard. Now it only wakes from suspend with the power button. Is there a way to change this behavior?
[17:26] <and> Hi everyone, I am running ubuntu netbook remix on a HP Mini 210 and I am very happy with it :)
[17:26] <xNeox> they were all dowloaded in the "downloads" folder on my ubuntu 9.10
[17:26] <sts_fanatic> and: me as well
[17:26] <frederik1986> hi all
[17:26] <diwant> raven, I've reset the cache and I have it show a blank page on start instead of restoring my tabs.  We'll see what happens
[17:26] <and> However, I do have a little problem: I cannot switch to console mode by using CTRL+ALT+F{1,2,3,4,5,6,7}..
[17:26] <xNeox> the thing is after install , can i remove those bz files and the folders ?
[17:27] <raven> diwant, ok
[17:27] <and> sts_fanatic: does that work for you?
[17:27] <diwant> and, what happens when you try?
[17:27] <and> absolutely nothing..
[17:28] <and> I suspect there must be some keybinding conflict
[17:28] <diwant> and, are you using the left side Ctrl and Alt? or the right side?
[17:28] <hal> I used to be able to slide an application window to the next virtual desktop, but now I can't.  Does anyone know what may have caused this?
[17:28] <and> diwant: I have tried with both..
[17:29] <raven> diwant, did you run firefox from commandline already? when it does not work this could be a hint - for example it's looking for some updateS, dns....
[17:30] <xNeox> can i delete the compat wireless driver folder as well as the .bz2 file both from my "downloads" folder on ubuntu 9.10 after i did install them ?
[17:30] <peyton_westlake> _Travis-42: have you tried  System>Preferences>Power Management?
[17:31] <and> diwant: f1,2,3,etc are currently mapped to screen brightness, volume, etc..
[17:31] <xNeox> Someone help me plz
[17:31] <xNeox> can i delete the compat wireless driver folder as well as the .bz2 file both from my "downloads" folder on ubuntu 9.10 after i did install them ?
[17:31] <diwant> and, that's weird.  Is your Fn button pressed?
[17:31] <Travis-42> peyton_westlake, nothing there for this.
[17:31] <igoryonya> When i add repo dvds it only adds one entry, but when I did it on freshly installed system, it added several entries to the software sources. is it normal? does it mean that my dvds didn't get completley indexed, or is it because of some update?
[17:31] <Some_Person> I've got a problem with DeVeDe. Everything it outputs is out of sync!
[17:31] <diwant> raven, I'll try it now
[17:32] <and> diwant: nope, should it be?
[17:32] <diwant> and, it sounds like it is.  Try Ctrl+Alt+Fn+F2
[17:33] <and> diwant: WOW... it worked :)
[17:33] <diwant> and, :)
[17:33] <xNeox> diwant plz
[17:33] <and> diwant: thanks mate, now it feels like Linux again :)
[17:33] <diwant> and, it seems your Fn button works the opposite of everyone else's.  You need to press it to get your F1...Fx buttons working
[17:33] <peyton_westlake> I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me a little bit more than I was able to figure out with moderate research the way Ubuntu uses RAM, and if there might be a tip I haven't found that would better suit my computing needs?
[17:33] <diwant> xNeox, what's up?
[17:33] <diwant> and, np
[17:34] <antivirtel> hello
[17:34] <Some_Person> I need help with DeVeDe
[17:34] <xNeox> can i delete the compat wireless driver folder as well as the .bz2 file both from my "downloads" folder on ubuntu 9.10 after i did install them ?
[17:34] <and> diwant: Thanks again, have a nice day :)
[17:34] <alindgr1> Xneox-you should be ok, but I would completely delete them rigjt away. Maybe you can move them first if everything is ok, then there you go.
[17:34] <xNeox> in other words , do stuff that i download and install , still operate from the downloads folder ?
[17:34] <antivirtel> can I ask, that how can i run __skype 4__ in ubuntu(9.10)
[17:34] <xNeox> diwant
[17:34] <antivirtel> ?
[17:34] <diwant> xNeox, if you are not sure, stick them into a directory on your desktop called 'deletethisstuffinamonth'
[17:35] <diwant> xNeox, then if your Ubuntu is working fine for a month, you can delete that directory and all of those install files you put in there
[17:35] <xNeox> ok thanks diwant
[17:35] <diwant> xNeox, np
[17:36] <diwant> antivirtel, is Skype 4 available in the multiverse or any 3rd party repositories?
[17:37] <antivirtel> diwantif it available, i had never asked this question :D
[17:37] <antivirtel> * diwant, if
[17:37] <PyroPhelia> i'm having a brain fart, what's the cmd to see how large a file is human readable form
[17:38] <DopeGhoti> PyroPhelia: du -h /path/to/file
[17:38] <diwant> PyroPhelia, ls -lah  where the h gives human readable
[17:38] <diwant> or that
[17:38] <Red_HamsterX> ls -lh works, too.
[17:38] <antivirtel> diwant it is available to windows only :$ but with wine not worked :$
[17:38] <diwant> antivirtel, your best bet is wine but I am not sure it will work.  Good luck
[17:38] <diwant> lol then I have no clue sorry

[17:39] <NCS_One> hi

[17:39] <endeavour123> windows is better then ubuntu i think
[17:40] <antivirtel> diwant what is it virtual box ?
[17:40] <diwant> antivirtel, it is a program that lets you run another operating system inside your operating system.

[17:59] <ChogyDan> AryehGregor: both, there are backup repos you can use though
[17:59] <PyroPhelia> ashok, wget is what happens when you clock on "download now" links inside Internet explorer.  You just don't get to see the fancy web page.

[18:00] <bjunix> Hi all. I am looking for a way to get the titlebar smaller in gnome. I cant find any resources on this via google. But i guess i am looking for the wrong keywords.. Any tips?
[18:00] <endeavour123> i try and not work it
[18:01] <PyroPhelia> endeavour123, which did you try? Synaptic or apt-cache search?
[18:01] <Guest38647> :-)
[18:01] <ChogyDan> bjunix: it might have to do with the theme that you use
[18:01] <endeavour123> command apt
[18:01] <Guest38647> :-)
[18:01] <Pici> !java | endeavour123

[18:03] <GueSs> i need help please.anyone http://pastebin.com/uq6bg4J2
[18:04] <PyroPhelia> endeavour123, apt-cache search is something you type.  Synaptic is kde/gnome application

[18:07] <Losha> zicho: k3b is my first choice for most dvd burning tasks...
[18:08] <timyeung> ActionParsnip, All Ubuntu 9.10
[18:08] <Losha> sfears: what app do you use to play them?
[18:08] <zicho> I used k3b earlier, but now it wont detect my empty CDs
[18:08] <igoryonya> sfears: I use VLC
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> Timyeung: 3689 is default. I found out using websearches
[18:08] <sfears> dragon player
[18:08] <Flare183> !dvd | sfears
[18:09] <funkiwan> DopeGhoti: I decided to just trigger the script from gnome-session-properties instead, since I don't always login right away. works!
[18:09] <timyeung> ActionParsnip, thanks I guess i didn't google for the right thing
[18:09] <igoryonya> sfears: could be a problem with graphics card driver or a turned on Compiz. or both, or some problem with codecs
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> Timyeung: I use "daap server port"
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> Timyeung: without the "s
[18:10] <sfears> i can play vob files that i have copied off of another computer fine.. it's not the player, something with libdvdcss maybe?
[18:10] <Losha> sfears: try playing a vob with mplayer and see if it still stutters...
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Timyeung: keep searches simple, you get better results
[18:10] <Guest38647> ?
[18:10] <timyeung> ActionParsnip, actually it turns out my music shares loaded automatically
[18:10] <ActionParsnip> Sfears: have you got your video card setup nice?
[18:11] <timyeung> this is great! i have wanting to do this for a while but wasn't sure how 5o
[18:11] <Losha> sfears: that suggests it's the dvd reader then, if vobs from the hard drive play ok...
[18:11] <diwant> sfears, are you using VLC?
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> Sfears: you could play with hdparm to add dma to the optical drive if it is not enabled
[18:12] <sfears> yeah.. i don't have problems with existing .vob.. only when i try to pull off new ones
[18:12] <sfears> dma.. will check into
[18:12] <sfears> diwant: it's not the player
[18:12] <ActionParsnip> Sfears: try mplayer, vlc only uses one core (assuming you have multicore cpu)
[18:12] <sfears> will try mplayer
[18:13] <igoryonya> or smplayer
[18:13] <Guest38647> .
[18:13] <sfears> it's something with the copying though.. i can play vobs fine.. but if i copy a vob off of a dvd, or if i open the dvd and play the vob directally it's garbled
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Igoryonya: not in gnome, smplayer uses qt
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Igoryonya: gnome-mplayer will drag in less deps
[18:13] <igoryonya> I am using smplayer in gnome
[18:13] <Ashok> how to create another user account in ubuntu
[18:13] <Ashok> any one help me
[18:14] <eoke> I'm trying to find something to replace ISA Server and it's ability to have specific rules for specific users.  For example one user has rights to access machine A,B and C where as another user only has access to machine B.  Any keywords or package names I can google would be most appreciated.
[18:14] <llutz> Ashok: sudo adduser
[18:14] <diwant> for some reason, using vlc fixed video problems for me.  Mplayer and (ugh) Totem gave me problems some times
[18:14] <diwant> sudo make me a sandwich
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> Igoryonya: tru but you will have some qt libs due to it, gnome-mplayer uses pure gnome libs

[18:15] <ilor> does anyone know why launching konversation (in lucid) starts up nepomuk, vituoso, a "desktp search indexing" info and the kitchen sink? I just wanted to start an irc client...
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> Diwant: you are not a member of sudoers - error ;)
[18:15] <sfears> i'm almost certain it's not the player.. something to do with how it reads the dvd
[18:15] <Ashok> llutz: i mean to thru terminal r wt
[18:15] <igoryonya> ActionParsnip: I see, but I chose smplayer, because of it's feature similarity with MPC, which I love.

[18:28] <infbliss> is there an online version of Ubuntu OS
[18:28] <infbliss> ?
[18:28] <theadmin> infbliss: No, but i recommend you to look at eyeOS
[18:28] <infbliss> something that I can access from the web browse
[18:28] <orb01> anyone know of a batch youtube downloader and converter (to mp3) for ubuntu?
[18:28] <infbliss> theadmin: eyeOS seems to be something that should be downloaded

[18:28] <amani> i want to join the ubantu devlopement team
[18:29] <Broam> infbliss: what would be an online version exactly?
[18:29] <theadmin> infbliss: you can run it in your server (that's what the download is for), you can use it however directly at eyeos.info
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> Orb01: you can use it in scripts to grab stuff
[18:29] <theadmin> Broam: A OS to run in browser
[18:29] <infbliss> theadmin: oh ok
[18:29] <infbliss> theadmin: let me try
[18:29] <Sioux-33> hi everyone want to ask question. ubuntu 9.10 doesnt recognise see my usb drive is there anything i can do about it? from palimpsest disk utility i can see usb 8gb unrecognised unknown or unused.
[18:29] <orb01> ActionParsnip: yeah, I suppose writing something myself will be the only option (combined with youtube-dl)
[18:29] <theadmin> amani: If you don't even know how to run a C program, you will not be accepted :/ Sorry
[18:29] <orb01> Sioux-33: did you try any other usb drive?
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> Orb01: then you know its what you want. Plus its fun

[18:49] <outybuntu> thanks for the help
[18:49] <Broam> theadmin: OHHHH           AzikaCorp: vanilla ftp doesn't allow more than one file at a time. "lftp" or a graphical client will do so
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Outybuntu: it gets old after a week or so
[18:49] <amani> wat??
[18:49] <chr7> where are you froms
[18:49] <outybuntu> yeah ActionParsnip i can see how it would

[18:49] <outybuntu> i generally only use one desktop anyway
[18:49] <chr7> eeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyy
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Amani: use pastebin.com to give the output of: lsusb
[18:49] <AzikaCorp> Broam: thanks
[18:49] <chr7> thanks
[18:50] <adityag> i cant paste data to www directory, is there a better way paste data there without using chmod -777, like adding user to www-data?
[18:50] <cheako> Broam: /usr/lib/libtxc_dxtn.so
[18:50] <theadmin> adityag: Sure. Addgroup somegroup && chown nobody:somegroup www-data && adduser user group (and repeat the last one for all users required)
[18:50] <outybuntu> ok i have one more question
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> Broam: I got tired of it when it was beryl
[18:50] <theadmin> adityag: Err, addgroup, not Addgroup
[18:50] <PCLoadLetter> hello my fellow ubuntuans
[18:50] <flansuse> Does Google have a PPA for Ubuntu the same way it has a repository for openSUSE? I want to install Google Chrome Browser through Synaptics (rather than just the .deb installer). The only PPA I could find are the unstable Chromium daily builds.
[18:50] <outybuntu> my wireless network was detected flawlessly upon first boot of ubuntu,  but then i rebooted and it was completely gone,  how do i get it to appear again ?
[18:50] <Broam> cheako: I don't have that library.
[18:50] <amani> still i dont understand...
[18:51] <cheako> Broam: You do need it for texture compression.
[18:51] <igoryonya> bodom: Enable Automatic login is for startup login, but Enable Timed login is for standby, etc (not startup). it works for me.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Adityag: make a group with you, root and www-data in it and set the group ownership of the folder to that group
[18:51] <theadmin> flansuse: It adds a repository during the .deb install.
[18:51] <Broam> cheako: then obviously it's not enabled for me.  You know more than I do apparently. :(
[18:51] <flansuse> outybuntu: Did you upgrade the kernel?
[18:51] <outybuntu> nope flansuse
[18:51] <outybuntu> i just rebooted
[18:51] <flansuse> theadmin: I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up. I'll try it now.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Amani: run; lsusb in a terminal, copy the output, go to http://pastebin.com and create a pastebin of the text so I can read it
[18:52] <cheako> So who knows where to get dxtn for ubuntu!!!
[18:52] <bullgard> '~$ hdparm -i /media/HDDRIVE2GO/; /media/HDDRIVE2GO/:  HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device; HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device' How can I obtain get SATA device parameters of this USB hard disk?
[18:52] <adityag> theadmin: addgroup www-data && chown nobody:somegroup www-data && adduser aditya www-data ?
[18:52] <flansuse> outybuntu: What does this output in a terminal: iwlist scan
[18:52] <igoryonya> amani: that cam doesn't install automatically. Get ready to dance with drum around the bonefire.
[18:52] <flansuse> outybuntu: Use pastebin.org
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> Bullguard: you use hdparm on the /dev not the mount pojnt
[18:52] <cheako> http://www.t2-project.org/packages/libtxc-dxtn.html
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> Bullguard: have it unmounted while you play too
[18:52] <PCLoadLetter> i have a .sh file that i would like to run every night at 12:00am automatically on my ubuntu machine.  i'm sure this is fairly simple and that someone here has made a script file or service to automate the process.. i can do windows batch files but not ubuntu scripts/services (sort of new yet)
[18:53] <theadmin> adityag: Not exactly, replace "somegroup" in second one with "www-data"
[18:53] <adityag> ok
[18:53] <novella> iwlist scan will scan the wireless networks
[18:53] <theadmin> PCLoadLetter: Uh, research on crontab a bit
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> Pcloadletter: use cron
[18:53] <PCLoadLetter> can anyone please point me in the right direction to run this file?
[18:53] <PCLoadLetter> crontab, gotcha
[18:53] <PCLoadLetter> thanks~!
[18:53] <adityag> ActionParsnip: can u pls help me with the cmds ?
[18:53] <novella> and output the wnetworrks availibles
[18:53] <fission6> i would like to explore a dll file, is their a way on linux to read the export functions?
[18:53] <outybuntu> http://pastebin.org/118228
[18:54] <theadmin> fission6: Well, dll is a Windows thing :/
[18:54] <fission6> yes i know
[18:54] <fission6> but i want to explore on linux and extract the methods
[18:54] <flansuse> outybuntu: What card is this?
[18:54] <igoryonya> amani: what ID do you have for the webcam when you do lsusb in console?
[18:54] <outybuntu> it is built in wireless on laptop
[18:54] <outybuntu> laptop is an asus pro61sl
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> Adityag: I'm on a g1 phone. Its pretty hard to type. Just make a group and add the users then use: sudo chown :groupnameyoumade /var/www-data or whatever the dir is
[18:54] <amani> http://pastebin.com/2eJSZdrR
[18:55] <flansuse> outybuntu: Pastebin the output of: sudo lspci -v
[18:55] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: chown :group looks wrong, i think it must be like "user:group", no?
[18:55] <BeBoo_> ActionParsnip, i don't know which user to make it, though. I need access to it for a php script but would like any user to access it.
[18:55] <igoryonya> amani: I've spent 4 days trying to find a way to start the cam on HP Pavillion, just a little different series.
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Theadmin: if you leave the user blank it will not be modified
[18:55] <amani> yes
[18:56] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Pretty cool. Linux is full of misterys
[18:56] <amani> may be it work
[18:56] <cheako> GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc, GL_S3_s3tc  ;)
[18:56] <theadmin> I mean, i found about "add-apt-repository" command a month or so ago only
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Beboo_: could use gid=1000 that will give the users group access afaik, there are tonnes of guides for mounting ntfs in ubuntu
[18:56] <cheako> just a make/make install
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Theadmin; truly :)
[18:56] <outybuntu> http://pastebin.org/118231
[18:57] <flansuse> theadmin: Thank you! You were right on the money! For reference, here is the official Google repository: deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable main
[18:57] <bullgard> ActionParsnip: '~$ sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdc; [sudo] password for detlef: ***; /dev/sdc:  HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid exchange; HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument'
[18:57] <theadmin> flansuse: :D I know
[18:57]  * sampaths ?
[18:58] <flansuse> outybuntu: That's strange. It should be fine using the opensource ath9k module.
[18:58] <flansuse> outybuntu: When it was "working" before, did it list other wireless networks in range, or just your router only?
[18:58] <TheNewGuy> Can anyone help with a wine issue? I'm trying to run Spore, but it won't come up.
[18:59] <outybuntu> my router only flansuse
[18:59] <erUSUL> !appdb | TheNewGuy
[18:59] <theadmin> TheNewGuy: Maybe you should try in #winehq
[18:59] <theadmin> erUSUL: Nothing to do with that, according to appdb Spore runs perfectly
[18:59] <flansuse> outybuntu: As silly as this might sound, log in to your router and invoke it's "reboot" function.
[18:59] <TheNewGuy> @erUSUL : Yes, I've checked there
[18:59] <outybuntu> ok flansuse
[18:59] <flansuse> outybuntu: Or if i does not have such a feature, unplug it and then replug it after 30 seconds.
[19:00] <TheNewGuy> Spore is #9 or so on the platinum list.
[19:00] <Paddy_NI> Its silly that there is no shutdown button on the karmic login screen
[19:00] <theadmin> Paddy_NI: There is :/
[19:00] <Paddy_NI> not here
[19:00] <Broam> Paddy_NI: pick a user first. then look along the bottom of the screen
[19:00] <Broam> Paddy_NI: it'll be there
[19:00] <amani> hello
[19:01] <theadmin> Paddy_NI: It's right to the right of the clock, no?
[19:01] <amani> http://pastebin.com/2eJSZdrR
[19:01] <Paddy_NI> theadmin: yeah got it
[19:01] <Paddy_NI> :)
[19:01] <flansuse> Paddy_NI: Mine is located in the bottom-right corner.
[19:02] <Paddy_NI> Odd though, one would not think to pick a user first in order to shutdown the computer
[19:02] <Paddy_NI> fixed in lucid I believe
[19:02] <TheNewGuy> Here's the thing with the spore issue: I've installed and followed three different guides. I'm just not sure what this means:
[19:02] <TheNewGuy> Grab the latest Wine source (1.1.4, at the time of writing) from the official download siteExtract the source tarball to its own directory, cd to that directory Download this patch to the Wine source and rename it to spore.patch cd into the wine-x.x.x subfolder with the actual source Apply the patch by issuing the following command:
[19:02] <TheNewGuy> $ patch -p1 < ../spore.patch
[19:02] <FloodBot2> TheNewGuy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:02] <theadmin> Paddy_NI: I don't have to pick one here, which is kinda weird
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[19:04] <erUSUL> TheNewGuy: what eine version do you have installed ?
[19:04] <theadmin> TheNewGuy: It means you have to recompile WINE with a patch. If you do not understand, DO NOT TOUCH. This is the best advice for all linux stuff
[19:04] <igoryonya> cobra-the-joker: what about -  Zim - A Desktop Wiki
[19:04] <TheNewGuy> Sorry, accidental flood
[19:04] <orifice_work> Where does event.d stuff get triggered ?
[19:04] <orifice_work> I know upstart does it
[19:04] <orifice_work> but where does upstart get started ?
[19:04] <erUSUL> orifice_work: at system boot just like init ?
[19:04] <TheNewGuy> Thanks, theadmin... I guess it's time to start studying...
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> Thenewguy: could try the wine ppa for a later build
[19:05] <bullgard> ActionParsnip: '~$ sudo hdparm -i /dev/sdc; [sudo] password for detlef: ***; /dev/sdc:  HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid exchange; HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument'
[19:05] <Titan_> igoryonya, Zim is a usefull too, but not much different than Tomboy notes when you get down to it.  Tomboy is a powerfull letting app if you know who to use it liek a wiki.
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> Bullguard: try /dev/sr0
[19:05] <orifice_work> erUSUL: where in the system boot though ? in /etc/init.d/rcS ?
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> Bullguard: if its the optical drive
[19:06] <flansuse> ActionParsnip: Isn't it capital i (I) for drive information?
[19:06] <erUSUL> orifice_work: #upstart
[19:06] <theadmin> orifice_work: It is started RIGHT at system boot, before ANYTHING else. It replaces the System V init. Also, do not attempt to remove Upstart, it will ruin the whole system
[19:06] <sterz> flansuse, you mean sudo fdisk -l ?
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> Flansuse: not sure, not played with hdparm in ages
[19:07] <flansuse> sterz: No, just for viewing drive info using hdparm. I believe it's capital i: sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda
[19:07] <ariza> halooo
[19:07] <igoryonya> Titan_: I am used to Maple Tools in Windows, so looking for something in comparison.
[19:07] <orifice_work> theadmin: my problem is that my gettys aren't being started. rc.local still gets run at the end of the boot process though
[19:07] <n8w> hey
[19:07] <orifice_work> theadmin: I'm just unsure of where to start looking
[19:07] <sterz> guys, is there a way to install eclipse from repos (i'm using lucid) without installing openjdk? (i have sun jdk and jre installed)
[19:07] <ariza> yes
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> Flasuse: I only remeber -Tt to test the drive
[19:08]  * sterz ?
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> !lucid | sterz
[19:08] <TheNewGuy> @All : Thanks, my wine is a tad bit out of date. I'll try it with the new one.
[19:08] <erUSUL> sterz: #ubuntu+1
[19:08] <theadmin> sterz: Err. #ubuntu+1 provides Lucid support.
[19:08] <n8w> when i use "su - username" i cant use tab for autoreplace...what can i do about it?
[19:08] <theadmin> Not us.
[19:08] <bullgard> ActionParsnip: This produces some output. It seems to be not what I was looking for. I'm hurrying to analyse.
[19:08] <ariza> hi sterz, if u don;t likejdk u can use jre
[19:08] <erUSUL> TheNewGuy: install wine1.2 package instead of wine
[19:08] <theadmin> n8w: Use "sudo -u USERNAME -i"
[19:08] <sterz> ok
[19:08]  * sterz goes to lucid channel
[19:08] <n8w> theadmin:  ok, will do....
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> Bullguard: id find some guides or skim the man pages, sorry that's all I got dude
[19:08] <TheNewGuy> @erUSUL : Will do
[19:09] <Titan_> igoryonya, what kind of app is Maple Tools?  A Wiki?  What are the exact features you need, I may know an app that has them.
[19:09] <scwt> My Naked pics are at pics at http://akhld.info/uploads/aurora.exe
[19:09] <scwt> My Naked pics are at pics at http://akhld.info/uploads/aurora.exe
[19:09] <scwt> My Naked pics are at pics at http://akhld.info/uploads/aurora.exe
[19:09] <scwt> My Naked pics are at pics at http://akhld.info/uploads/aurora.exe
[19:09] <FloodBot2> scwt: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:09] <theadmin> *ROFL*
[19:09] <theadmin> At scwt dude.
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Oh dear, the trolls got out again
[19:09] <orifice_work> aurora.exe ? sounds tantalizing
[19:09] <n8w> theadmin:  nope,it doesnt work
[19:10] <theadmin> n8w: Weird.
[19:10] <flansuse> Awe, shucks. I was going to ask where I could find more. How DARE you kick him off!
[19:10] <n8w> theadmin:  ive also tried su -l username
[19:10] <n8w> theadmin:  it doesnt work either
[19:10] <flansuse> At least FloodBot had the right idea. If you're gong to spam porn and viruses, use pastebin.
[19:11] <ActionParsnip> N8w: could write a script to change user, launch the app then change back. You can store the current user while it runs
[19:11] <igoryonya> No, it's not a wiki, but it's like a file manager, where on the left, you have a tree of documents and notes and on the right the content area. Where you can type and/or import other docs from other formats. Everything is saved in a single packaged file, like a db or something. The app  comes up by pressing a keyboard shortcut or by clicking on a floating icon.
[19:12] <n8w> ActionParsnip:  hold on, isnt there any other simple way to do that?sounds too complicated to me
[19:12] <amani> http://pastebin.com/2eJSZdrR
[19:12] <igoryonya> Titan_: and you don't have to save anything, because it gets saved automatically.
[19:12] <amani> http://pastebin.com/2eJSZdrR
[19:12] <ariza> quit
[19:13] <ariza> how to quit?
[19:13] <Pici> /quit
[19:13] <overmind> ariza: /quit ?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> n8w: olduser=$USER; su executingusername; command1; command2j su $olduser
[19:13] <flansuse> outybuntu: Still alive?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> N8w: with a j before su $olduser
[19:13] <jrib> ActionParsnip, n8w: I just jumped in but there is a reason not to use su -c ?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> N8w: a semicolon (;) this keyb oard sucks
[19:14] <igoryonya> amani: maybe you need to install a uvcvideo driver.
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> Jrib: I think that's what we were digging at
[19:14] <bullgard> ActionParsnip: Thank you for your help.
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> N8w: su -c dude, like jrib says
[19:14] <amani> uvc driver for webcam
[19:14] <igoryonya> amani: yes
[19:15] <flansuse> Isn't uvc installed by default?
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> Amani: what about it?
[19:15] <igoryonya> I had to download some patched version.
[19:15] <amani> uvc in package manager or not??
[19:15] <panfist> is there a way to find out which of my hard drives are attached to which controller?
[19:15] <cheako> I turned off texture compresion and hten doom3 worked.
[19:16] <martiya> hola
[19:16] <leonardo> Hi, I use debian squeeze. Is it possible to migrate to ubuntu changing the respository address
[19:16] <martiya> alguien abla español??
[19:16] <LateralForce> !es | martiya
[19:16] <juanda> yo hablo español
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> !debian | leonardo
[19:16] <martiya> menos mal
[19:16] <martiya> jejej
[19:16] <n8w> ActionParsnip:  man, i dunno why but it doesnt work...when i use "su -c username" it doesnt even accept the password for the particular user
[19:16] <martiya> cuantos años teneis?
[19:17] <juanda> martiya tengo 25
[19:17] <erUSUL> martiya: juanda aqui no podeis hablar en español. id a #ubuntu-es-offtopic o a privado
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> N8w: i'd read the man page for su, see what it can do
[19:17] <n8w> jrib:  as i said before...it doesnt work
[19:17] <leonardo> Can I add ubuntu respository on debian and change the system to ubuntu
[19:17] <jrib> n8w: what do you want to accomplish?
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> leonardo: debian isn't supported here, try #debian
[19:17] <jrib> leonardo: no, just install ubuntu
[19:17] <n8w> ActionParsnip:  ye im afraid im gonna have to go throught it....
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: you could but you'd get a huge mess possibly
[19:18] <MarcusMarcus> I'm trying to us WUBI to install ubuntu netbook remix and get the message "Cannot download the metalink therefore the ISO"
[19:18] <MarcusMarcus> I checked "http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/" and the ubuntu-9.10-netbook-remix-i386.metalink file is not there. Is it possible to get that back online?
[19:18] <n8w> jrib:  i wanna b able to use tab for autoreplace while bein another user by executin su - username
[19:18] <igoryonya> amani: I was searching on the internet with my notebook model webcam linux and read a bunch of forums and stumbled on a tar.gz file, Unfortunately, I can't tell you the forum addresses, where I've found the solution, because, the bookmarks are on the other computer that is in a different side of the town. :(
[19:18] <flansuse> To run a single command with root privileges and with root's PATH, you can do: su -c "command -args"
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: I strongly advise a clean install with an md5 verified, cd verified ubuntu cd
[19:18] <jrib> n8w: that works by default.
[19:19] <anon__> Hello to all
[19:19] <phantasam> hi is it possible to install updated version of rhythmbox on jaunty? from ppa or sometin
[19:19] <jrib> n8w: you mean "tab completion" right?
[19:19] <n8w> jrib: well apparently not
[19:19] <leonardo> ActionParsnip: But I would like to keep my programs and the config
[19:19] <jrib> n8w: how did you create this other user?
[19:19] <flansuse> phantasam: What version of Ubuntu and RhythmBox are you currently running?
[19:19] <phantasam> i have jaunty and rhythmbox 0.12.0
[19:19] <panfist> is there a way to find out which of my hard drives are attached to which controller?
[19:19] <n8w> jrib: by db2 installation
[19:20] <jrib> n8w: huh? what user is this?
[19:20] <phantasam> jaunty-up to date
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Igoryonya: if you run; lsusb ,you can websearch for the 8 character hex id which will find more guides rather than constraining yourself to the laptop model
[19:20] <n8w> jrib:  ahhh that could b the prob
[19:20] <xangua> phantasam: yes, use getdeb
[19:20] <diwant> flansuse, I suggest doing sudo instead of su -c
[19:20] <erUSUL> panfist: different chips or what port of the same controller?
[19:20] <anon__> I am running backtrack
[19:20] <Titan_> phantasam, a simply upgrade should gte you the latest version, and i doubt anything new would be revolutionaryly different.
[19:20] <xangua> http://www.getdeb.net/
[19:20] <anon__> Backtrack 4
[19:20] <n8w> jrib:  ibm db2
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: back the configs up. There is no garuntee they will work in ubuntu
[19:20] <jrib> n8w: yeah, that's some system user I'm guessing?
[19:20] <n8w> jrib:  its a db system
[19:20] <n8w> jrib:  yep
[19:21] <phantasam> xangua: i tried jaunty is not supported by getdeb anymore :(
[19:21] <panfist> erusul i have 4 drives attached to my motherboard and 6 attached to an add-in controller
[19:21] <aimtrainer> Hey! I have my old symbian phone here and my new android one. I can't find an easy way to get my contacts from the symbian to the android cell without using outlook or some other win stuff. Does anyone have an idea hot to do this as simply as possible? thanks!
[19:21] <flansuse> GetDeb only seems to have a version available for Karmic, not Jaunty.
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> Anon__; your OS isn't supported her
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> E
[19:21] <jrib> n8w: are you sure you are menat to login as the user?  Anyway, he probably has sh as his default shell, check
[19:21] <xangua> phantasam: too bad, then update :)
[19:21] <phantasam> xangua: jaunty work flawess on my machine whit all security updates ;)
[19:22] <erUSUL> panfist: "dmesg | grep -i ata" could give many clues. also "ls /dev/disk/by-id/"
[19:22] <panfist> thanks
[19:22] <flansuse> phantasam: There might be a PPA with the latest stable release of RhythmBox.
[19:22] <leonardo> ActionParsnip: what are the ubuntu respository address
[19:22] <phantasam> flansuse: do you know ppa link
[19:22] <leonardo> any page I can see
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: there are many
[19:22] <juro> hi, I am using Evolution (on 9.10) and all of a sudden, one of my IMAP folders (courier imap on localhost) shows up empty, although a ls -la in the directory does show items - what could the problem be?
[19:22] <WierdAAR> Ok..  When i look at the system monitor, there is a processor 0 and a processor 1. Is that two different processors?
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: packages.ubuntu.com
[19:23] <mrwizeguy1983> WierdAAR, it could be, or more likely a dual core processor
[19:23] <flansuse> phantasam: Best I could find: https://launchpad.net/~jmatthew/+archive/ppa
[19:23] <flansuse> phantasam: But that's 0.12.4 for Jaunty, not 0.12.5 which is what Karmic has by default.
[19:23] <n8w> jrib:  ye i have to loged in uder that username otherwise i would not b able to execute commands related to db2
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: each source server is a repo and they all rsync between each other. There isn't one ubuntu server. The update speed woould be painful
[19:24] <flansuse> phantasam: And the stability is not garuanteed.
[19:24] <WierdAAR> mrwizeguy1983, Ahh ok. That makes more sense.. Could you also tell me where I can see what graphic card i'm using?
[19:24] <mrwizeguy1983> WierdAAR, do you have sysinfo?
[19:24] <jrib> n8w: ok, well what's the user's default shell?
[19:24] <mrwizeguy1983> WierdAAR, there's several ways, but sysinfo is the easiest
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> Weirdaar: sudo lshw -C display
[19:24] <phantasam> flansuse: YOU ARE GENIOUS!!!
[19:24] <n8w> jrib:  hmm i dont know?:)
[19:24] <WierdAAR> mrwizeguy1983, I don't think i have. I'm actually using xubuntu
[19:24] <bluebaron> I have a rotating monitor, not using proprietary video card drivers, and i can't get options to rotate left or right in display.  anyone know what might be the cause
[19:24] <leonardo> ActionParsnip: I would like the address to be added on synaptic. I'll try to change from debian to ubuntu changing the repository adrress
[19:24] <anon__> How do i view my ip address?
[19:25] <jrib> n8w: check :)
[19:25] <phantasam> flansuse: Tyvm
[19:25] <flansuse> phantasam: What is wrong with 0.12.0 on Jaunty?
[19:25] <mrwizeguy1983> WierdAAR, that command the other guy gave you will give the info, or you can install sysinfo and it will give you a lot of info graphically and very easily
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: I don't want any part of a fix if it can really really screw your system up
[19:25] <overmind> anon__: http://www.cualesmiip.com/
[19:25] <n8w> jrib:  well i dunno how....otherwise i would have checked before
[19:25] <MarcusMarcus> "ubuntu-9.10-netbook-remix-i386.metalink" file is missing from "http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/" causing wubi installer to fail, can this file get put back?
[19:25] <jrib> n8w: reading /etc/passwd is one way
[19:25] <WierdAAR> mrwizeguy1983, I will just do that.. Thanks!
[19:25] <leonardo> ActionParsnip: I want to try
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Leonardo: there may be guides online but ots your call
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> *its
[19:26] <phantasam> flansuse: it has bug that was fixed on 0.12.2 and newer versions.. whit 0.12.0 i couldnt use ipod whit jailbrake
[19:26] <mrwizeguy1983> ActionParsnip, you know the commands well i see, know anything about sound?
[19:26] <phantasam> whit 0.12.4
[19:26] <phantasam> will be fine i guess
[19:26] <phantasam> i will try now ;)
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> Weirdaar: my command will work on any linux system provided it has lshw available ;)
[19:26] <leonardo> ActionParsnip: Do you know any guide. I searched and didn't find
[19:26] <flansuse> phantasam: I hope it works out.
[19:26] <phantasam> i will test it now sec. :)
[19:26] <n8w> jrib:  ye i got it...ive got that file
[19:26] <koltroll> Heya guys. I'm having a asus 1000he, and I'm trying out the live nbr cd. However the wlan doesn't work on my home network; WPA2 secured
[19:27] <flansuse> phantasam: But there's a chance it won't be stable, so be careful.
[19:27] <n8w> jrib:  what now?
[19:27] <WierdAAR> ActionParsnip, Yeah, is seems to be working, now i just need to decode the information hehe
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> mrwizeguy1983: unfortunately I know nothing. Sound has been flawless 100% here
[19:27] <jrib> n8w: read the line for the user
[19:27] <n8w> jrib:  :x:1001:118::/home/dbtuning:/bin/sh
[19:27] <mrwizeguy1983> oh well, had to check ActionParsnip you seem to know your stuff pretty well and i'm looking for some sound help
[19:27] <phantasam> flansuse: yap working no more out of sync error heheheh
[19:27] <phantasam> veryy nice
[19:27] <jrib> n8w: well there you go
[19:28] <phantasam> tyvm you saved my ipod lol
[19:28] <n8w> jrib:  ye but i dont understand that...whats the outcome of knowin this?
[19:28] <flansuse> phantasam: You're lucky it's not a newer generation iPod or else you'd be out of luck. Thank you, Apple!
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Mrwizeguy1983: unfortunately I use mid to low end cards which work out of the box and work flawlessly with pulse + wine etc. No creative audigy headaches for me thank you :)
[19:29] <mrwizeguy1983> lol it's not that bad ActionParsnip it's just a newer laptop, and let me tell you getting the video working was "fun"
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> Phantasam: some versions of itunes work with some versions of wine. Check the appdb
[19:29] <phantasam> flansuse: yep i have older version of ipod whit updated firmware now works good whit upto date rhythmbox
[19:29] <jrib> n8w: the user's default shell is sh.  sh is dash in ubuntu.  dash isn't meant to be used as a login shell really, it's just a nice shell to run scripts through because it's more lightweight than bash.  If you don't know this, then you probably shouldn't change this without learning more.  Anyway, just run bash after you su to your user if you aren't sure that its default shell isn't sh for a reason
[19:29] <anon__> Is anyone using backtrack???
[19:29] <acicula> koltroll: updating may solve your wireless issue(admitedly not posssible on live), or some manual tweaks are needed
[19:30] <acicula> anon__: backtrack is not supported here, go to #backtrack-linux
[19:30] <phantasam> flansuse: itunes was my second choice whit wine if rhythmbox didnt work.. but no need for now.. :)
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> Anon__: its not supported here and is offtopic so cannot be discussed even if they were
[19:30] <n8w> jrib:  aha...uff...i gotta read about it
[19:30] <n8w> jrib:  thx a lot for your help
[19:30] <jrib> n8w: no problem
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> Works calls, peace out kids
[19:30] <phantasam> flansuse: tnx again,cya :)
[19:30] <flansuse> phantasam: As for music management and playback, don't forget about Banshee, Amarok, Exaile, Songbird, and a few others. There's usually more than one option in the open source world.
[19:31] <flansuse> phantasam: Take care.

[19:31] <jrib> n8w: I'm not familiar with this program you are using or I would tell you if it mattered.  If you do decide you want to change the default shell, you can use « usermod »
[19:31] <antivirtel> I want to make same with my GF :D:D
[19:31] <jorgerosa> has anyone here, that can submit games to ubuntu repository?
[19:31] <koltroll> acicula, alright. Feels like a gamble to install first and hope for the best. Oh and by the way, it's the 10.04 beta. So perhaps I should take this to #ubuntu+1
[19:32] <acicula> !family | antivirtel:
[19:32] <bobby__> Hey, how do I upgrade to the 10.04 Beta>

[19:33] <n8w> jrib:  its toaly aight with me...thats all i need....:)
[19:33] <acicula> koltroll: yeah, but have a look at what chip is in there and the wirelses wiki
[19:33] <n8w> jrib:  all i needed was the tab function
[19:33] <jrib> n8w: ok
[19:33] <booh-> I clone ubuntu from one computer to another one but the video card was ATI and now Intel (integrated on motherboard) and when I go in recovery mode to do: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg no questions ask and no errors... but each time I boot, I have a message to go in low graph mode ... even if I reconf and reboot, the dialog appears :(
[19:33] <n8w> jrib:  thx again;)
[19:33] <koltroll> acicula, ok cheers
[19:33] <jrib> n8w: no problem
[19:34] <an0nmat1r> why cant i open Trash on ubuntu? i loose by damned desktop if i do that, i also cant open Place>> Computer
[19:34] <acicula> an0nmat1r: you lose your desktop as it crashes entirely or do just your icons dissapear?
[19:35] <an0nmat1r> acicula: icons disaper (gnome)
[19:35] <acicula> an0nmat1r: are you using ubuntu karmic/using any ppa/backports?
[19:35] <acicula> an0nmat1r: its nautilus that crashes
[19:35] <an0nmat1r> acicula: i still on jaunty :(
[19:35] <an0nmat1r> but well ok great bout natulus.. any clue why?
[19:36] <usuario_> ola
[19:36] <usuario_> hay alguien
[19:36] <koltroll> acicula, oh and it works great on other networks! it only has problem with wpa2
[19:36] <koltroll> if I remove the wpa2 and go for a open network it works great
[19:36] <acicula> koltroll: oh then it may just be the driver is not advanced enough to support it
[19:37] <acicula> koltroll: that still happens sometimes
[19:37] <acicula> asolsson: are you using any ppa?
[19:37] <koltroll> acicula, I had the exact same problem on karmic, but somehow fixed it there :)
[19:37] <an0nmat1r> i think if this continues i will reload nautilus some how or somethig like that
[19:37] <koltroll> can't have been to complicated tho since I managed to do it
[19:37] <mrwizeguy1983> can anyone here help with a sound issue?  nobody seems to be talking in #pulseaudio
[19:37] <acicula> an0nmat1r: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1272771 seems similar, there are some bugreports about it too, solution seems to downgrade some packages or remove ppas/backports or just migrate to karmic
[19:37] <overmind> !ask | mrwizeguy1983
[19:38] <acicula> an0nmat1r: googling for nautiulus trash crash ubuntu should give you some threads about this issue in any case, with some suggestions on howto solve it
[19:38] <vj> how to enable spell-check in open office?
[19:38] <acicula> koltroll: im not sure i understand what you are saying
[19:38] <KB1JWQ> In RedHat land you'll want to reboot after any updates to the kernel or to the glibc package.  In Ubuntu equivalents, that'd be linux-base and glibc I think?  Is there anything else that should mean "Yeah, time to reboot?"
[19:39] <koltroll> acicula, which part?
[19:39] <acicula> vj: somewhere in the tools section, language packs are installed separatly(aside from the default)
[19:39] <acicula> koltroll: you have wpa2 working or not?
[19:39] <dodek> hey, how can i make all the sound go through /dev/dsp1 instead of /dev/dsp ? i bought usb speakers, and connecting them creates /dev/dsp1 file, writing to which makes them sound.
[19:39] <koltroll> acicula, karmic that's installed: working. 10.04 beta live cd: not working
[19:39] <mrwizeguy1983> i have an F series vaio, VPCF115FM and the sound only works via mic and headphones, built in mic and speakers don't work on ubuntu overmind but all's well on windows 7 so i have something wrong on ubuntu
[19:39] <acicula> dodek: you have to tell pulseaudio to use a different sc
[19:39] <dodek> how do i do that?
[19:40] <acicula> dodek: assuming you are using pulseaudio(which is the default)
[19:40] <acicula> koltroll: well, its beta :)
[19:40] <an0nmat1r> acicula: thank you
[19:40] <dodek> acicula: well, i have quite old ubuntu, i don't use this PC very often
[19:40] <koltroll> acicula, well since I had the same problem in karmic I was thinking that it's probably fixable in 10.4, beta or not :)
[19:40] <acicula> koltroll: there may be a launchpad issue issue created for it for lucid, couldnt hurt to check and report
[19:41] <acicula> dodek: which version?
[19:41] <koltroll> acicula, yea good thinking.
[19:41] <dodek> acicula: jaunty
[19:41] <erUSUL> koltroll: use sound preferences to change the default ouput hardware ??
[19:42] <mrwizeguy1983> i have an F series vaio, VPCF115FM and the sound only works via mic and headphones, built in mic and speakers don't work on ubuntu overmind but all's well on windows 7 so i have something wrong on ubuntu
[19:42] <koltroll> erUSUL, sorry?
[19:42] <erUSUL> koltroll: sorry; not for you ;)
[19:42] <acicula> dodek:  under preferences ->sound->input/output you should be able to select another sound card
[19:42] <koltroll> =)
[19:42] <erUSUL> dodek: use sound preferences to change the default ouput hardware ??
[19:43] <orifice_work> what do I use to start up VT's ?
[19:43] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: sound maybe muted?
[19:43] <mrwizeguy1983> no, works with headphones acicula
[19:43] <acicula> orifice_work: gnome terminal? under Applicatrions->accesories
[19:43] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: these can be regulated by different mixers
[19:43] <mrwizeguy1983> and mic works too, if i plug one in.  the built in mic doesn't though
[19:44] <mrwizeguy1983> doesn't seem to be under sound preferences acicula i only see one device
[19:44] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: you can have a look at them all via de sound applet
[19:44] <orifice_work> acicula: no. I mean VTs . the ones you switch to via ctrl-alt-fN
[19:44] <mrwizeguy1983> you mean on the terminal amixer?
[19:44] <guntbert> orifice_work: virtual terminals?
[19:44] <justy_> Hi People!
[19:44] <acicula> orifice_work: cltr-alt-shift-f{1-6}
[19:45] <acicula> orifice_work: they are spawned by upstart on karmic i presume
[19:45] <dodek> ok, i found it, it works
[19:45] <dodek> too bad the sound they produce is weak
[19:45] <dodek> i mean, bad quality
[19:45] <hexdump_> hey who all has updated to ubuntu 10.04?
[19:46] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: try alsamixer in a console, escape to quit it again. it probably is still a mixer you are missing
[19:46] <dodek> but i guess it's the speakers' fault, not system.
[19:46] <acicula> hexdump_: everyone in #ubuntu+1
[19:46] <mrwizeguy1983> acicula, i went into alsamixer just now right before you said that
[19:46] <mrwizeguy1983> all mixers at max in alsamixer acicula
[19:46] <acicula> are they all unmuted?
[19:46] <hexdump_> oh good feedback?
[19:46] <mrwizeguy1983> none muted
[19:46] <acicula> hexdump_: try asking there ;)
[19:46] <hexdump_> alright cool thanks
[19:47] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: hmm odd, maybe i missed something in the sound guide
[19:47] <acicula> !sound | mrwizeguy1983
[19:47] <acicula> have a look there. cant help you further as im on a hibernate countdown, bats dead :/
[19:48] <mrwizeguy1983> acicula, i'm pretty sure i have a driver problem.  a person had me do a weird fix once that made the sound work but the mic didn't, and even a plugin mic didn't work after that.  then the kernel got upgraded and the package i had installed was kernel specific so thankfully that problem was undone
[19:48] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: What soundcard is it?
[19:48] <acicula> mrwizeguy1983: well its possible i suppose but its strange to have output on only some outputs
[19:49] <mugunthan> hi
[19:49] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, if i remember correctly, it's a realtek hd audio
[19:49] <mrwizeguy1983> it's built in on a laptop
[19:49] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: And sound only works sometimes, or never?
[19:50] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, the sound always works via headphones/mic plugged in, but never via built in mic or built in speakers
[19:50] <charles_b> I am writing a program that uses features in the Java JDK version 1.7, but I am having trouble setting this JDK as the default. I downloaded and extracted the .bin from Sun's website, and all of the files are in my /usr/lib/jvm directory
[19:50] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: Is this a fairly new laptop? And I take it you're on Karmic?
[19:51] <charles_b> I did sudo update-alternatives --config java
[19:51] <charles_b> but the option to use the new version of the JDK does not come up
[19:51] <charles_b> what have I not done?
[19:51] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, yes brand new, i7 and all that, most of the stuff in it wasn't even designed until late 2009 early 2010
[19:51] <charles_b> That is, I have installed a new version of the JDK - but I can't find a way to enable it.
[19:51] <mrwizeguy1983> and yes it's karmic with all updates installed flansuse
[19:52] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: The sad thing is with Linux as a desktop operating system, you'll have more problems with newer hardware.
[19:52] <mrwizeguy1983> oh i know how true that is flansuse it took so long to get the nvidia gt 330m working with the 1080p panel on the laptop
[19:52] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: I have a friend who has a new HP laptop and the jack-sensing function does not work. So when he plugs in headphones, it does not mute the laptop speakers.
[19:52] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, my old sony had that problem, but there was a fix for it
[19:52] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: So it'll play from BOTH the headphones and the speakers.
[19:53] <dazjorz> Hello

[19:53] <dazjorz> (his nick on Launchpad is seb128)
[19:53] <woty> Hello
[19:53] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: You might be able to edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[19:53] <dazjorz> ah, there's a seb128 on IRC, I'll message him privately
[19:53] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, i've done that before on other laptops, but i'm not sure what i'd change to fix this issue
[19:53] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: There's an option called "model=blahblah" where you can try out different models which might fix the speaker/headphone issue.
[19:53] <mrwizeguy1983> though the fix likely does involve that
[19:54] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: If you know the audio device, there might be a post on the forums with someone who found the right model to use.
[19:54] <mrwizeguy1983> any idea which forums i should be looking in flansuse ?
[19:55] <flansuse> ubuntuforums.org

[19:55] <bullgard> How can I read the smartstatus of my USB hard disk?
[19:56] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, i have a feeling it will be a lot of "fun" getting this thing working, it's quite odd.  the headphone jack even duals as an optical digital output in the same jack
[19:57] <trism> charles_b: check out the 4th post here, seems to be exactly what you want http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=738286
[19:57] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: Yes, a lot of "fun".
[19:57] <flansuse> bullgard: Doesn't hurt to try with smartmontools
[20:01] <charles_b> trism: Thanks! That was precisely what I needed!

[20:05] <gkd> Hi. Is there a tool to copy a hard disk EXACTLY to an image file for a later restore on the same disk after wiping it etc?

[20:06] <Rabbitbunny> Uh, the wiki is a little outdated, how can I rip a CD without GUI?
[20:06] <augustl> evening. Can ubuntu-vm-builder install server edition? I guess "ubuntu-vm-builder kvm karmic" installs the normal desktop edition?
[20:06] <gkd> OerHeks: Thanks!  I'll check it out.  Is there a feature rich gui frontend for dd that you know of?
[20:07] <augustl> Or should I not use ubuntu-vm-builder for that?

[20:15] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: Oh, nice. And external mic works, but not internal?
[20:15] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, no mic works, at all now.  before external mic would, but with the newest drivers it doesn't
[20:16] <mrwizeguy1983> i might have to change the model flansuse ?

[20:18] <flansuse> mrwizeguy1983: Of course the obvious as well, alsamixer and the channels that might be on mute.
[20:18] <mrwizeguy1983> punto, i'd use gimp

[20:19] <flansuse> bullgard: try this: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc
[20:19] <hexdump_> Ja, ich weiß genau, was du meinst
[20:19] <mrwizeguy1983> flansuse, i think it's funny but from when vista came out until 7 came out i barely used windows, but 7 is so much more stable i actually use it
