[00:00] <edbian> Mithadon: Is there a red ! on the windows partition?
[00:00] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: 11Gb is plenty
[00:00] <Mithadon> i can make 7-8gb for / formatted ext4 with 3gb swap
[00:00] <nsadmin> how does ubuntu figure out the hardware it's running on can hibernate?
[00:00] <sagaci> Mithadon: that's fine
[00:00] <Mithadon> ok now, I should make / primary and swap logical or?
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: how many NTFS partitions do you have?
[00:01] <Mithadon> three
[00:01] <nsadmin> Mithadon, what's the purpose of the machine
[00:01] <Mithadon> this will make 5 TOTAL including some small 1gb recovery thing, windows, and data
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: then make the space you freed up into an xtended partition
[00:01] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: then make your Ubuntu partitions in that
[00:02] <Mithadon> its all-purpose and i want to try out ubuntu before i decide if ill use it permanently... I'm not sure I understand ActionParsnip
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: you can only have 4 primary partitions OR 3 (or fewer) primary partitions and an extended partition
[00:02] <nsadmin> ok, so would it be fair to say this is a throwaway installation?
[00:02] <Mithadon> ig uess so
[00:02] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: make all the partitions you make be logical
[00:03] <Mithadon> alright
[00:03] <nsadmin> well, I'd say just go for something
[00:04] <Sav_> Oh christ, he left again
[00:04] <induz> ActionParsnip, Lighting is not listed on Synaptic manager
[00:04] <nsadmin> you can always keep track of what you think were your mistakes (or at least what you would have done differently), and reinstall any time you want
[00:04] <Sav_> I'm going to be demanding and ask if anyone here is willing to help me with this
[00:04] <foobar1> hey guys
[00:04] <nsadmin> how does ubuntu figure out the hardware it's running on can hibernate?
[00:04] <Sav_> Hey foobar1
[00:05] <Sav_> oh
[00:05] <Mithadon> well i wouldnt be too afraid to wipe out windows 7, in fact id like to, but i dont want to be stuck not being able to reinstall properly (i removed recovery partition)
[00:05] <Sav_> edbian is still here
[00:05] <Sav_> good
[00:05] <foobar1> i have wierd problem, and tbh have tried everywhere trying to find a solution.. thought someone here might know
[00:05] <edbian> Sav_: haahaha
[00:05] <edbian> Hi
[00:05] <edbian> foobar1: What's the issue?
[00:05] <edbian> nsadmin: I think they just assume it can.
[00:05] <Sav_> edbian: Sorry. It shows up in Windows FINE. Now it's an ubuntu problem.
[00:05] <edbian> nsadmin: It's not standardized which is a giant problem.
[00:06] <foobar1> serial operation like open() or tcsetattr or flush() take exactly 5 seconds :/
[00:06] <edbian> Sav_: Perhaps windows is using those files for something special and not showing you something.  (That is the problem right?  Strange files)
[00:06] <Sav_> edbian: The files I put on it show up just fine
[00:06] <foobar1> its like some driver is throttling them
[00:06] <Sav_> edbian: Good point
[00:06] <edbian> Sav_: But not in Ubuntu?
[00:06] <Sav_> edbian: Nope, weird files in ubuntu.
[00:06] <Sav_> edbian: Was FAT 32 a bad idea?
[00:06] <escott> foobar1, 5 seconds may be the fs sync barrier, but you should notice that with other applications (basically everything should be really slow)
[00:07] <Sav_> edbian: Should I put it to something else?
[00:07] <edbian> Sav_: how big is the drive?
[00:07] <Sav_> edbian: 130GB
[00:07] <elijah> I just changed my dns servers to google public dns, how can I test/verify that they are working and not using my comcast ones?
[00:07] <edbian> Sav_: should be fine.  Usually for something that big though ext or ntfs is more typical
[00:07] <escott> elijah, cat /etc/resolve.conf
[00:08] <Sav_> edbian: Oh. Well, I mean, I could easily try.
[00:08] <Sav_> edbian: Why are they more typical?
[00:08] <edbian> Sav_: Umm not really sure.
[00:08] <edbian> Sav_: They're more common on big things (bigger than a USB drive)
[00:09] <nsadmin> edbian, ok, so here's the thing... my laptop can, and ubuntu does. no problem. how would I duplicate that? what exactly is the setup?
[00:09] <Benkinooby> elijah, do you have a network monitoring tool like wireshark or tcpdump on your computer?
[00:09] <escott> Sav_, the are just more robust. if you lose a 8gig fat partition you lost 8gigs of data. if you lose a 100gig fat partition...
[00:09] <edbian> nsadmin: duplicate what?
[00:09] <edbian> nsadmin: What is the problem?
[00:09] <elijah> escott: Thanks, that works and verifies that they are set correctly but for instance, if I run tracert google.com <IP_ADDRESS>. does not show in the tracert, should it?
[00:10] <nsadmin> I'm trying to get it working on debian by copying what ubuntu does.
[00:10] <Sav_> escott: I see. Other types make file recovery easier
[00:10] <nsadmin> but the problem is, I don't know how ubuntu does it, so I don't know what to copy
[00:10] <Benkinooby> elijah, tracert is something different... i got noting to do with dns
[00:11] <escott> Sav_, its not necessarily recovery. i think recovery on fat is probably easier. but how many copies of the file structure are there
[00:11] <Sav_> escott: Not sure what youy mean
[00:11] <edbian> nsadmin: Oh good luck.  If you could do that you'd have a lot to talk to the ubuntu and Debian developers
[00:11] <Benkinooby> elijah, also i think you mean traceroute
[00:11] <elijah> Benkinooby: yes
[00:12] <murazz__> how can I close a window that says "Click on a window to force the application to exit. to cancel press <ESC>" it's not responding by pressing ESC key
[00:12] <elijah> Benkinooby: okay, good to know, thanks
[00:12] <escott> elijah, its going to use what is in resolve if you want to you can get a command line dns client and make a request and see who you got the response from
[00:12] <nsadmin> edbian, oh, is it proprietary?
[00:12] <edbian> murazz__: kill some window withi t
[00:12] <Benkinooby> elijah, so what you can do is to install wireshark. it is in the repositories
[00:12] <edbian> nsadmin: It's just not a standard.   Do you mean a program that runs in shell?
[00:13] <Benkinooby> elijah, it is a programm that shows you what packages are seomt from and to your computer. if cou start it and then browse, you will see the dns requests and to what server they are sent to
[00:13] <gmed> Hi all, im trying to install ubuntu 11.04, but it freezes when loading gparted. I tried alternate CD, no lucky. I got to put the cd loading into a separated partition (where I am now).
[00:13] <elijah> Benkinooby: That would be great, do you know the name of one?
[00:13] <joshlegs> hey what does an unknown instance mean ? i'm trying to restart samba
[00:13] <elijah> man ifconfig
[00:14] <edbian> joshlegs: It means you can't run 'restart' you have to stop and then start
[00:14] <murazz__> edbian, I already did, but it's still static on screen
[00:14] <edbian> murazz__: mmm, is it listed in gnome-system monitor?
[00:14] <joshlegs> ahh ok. i couldnt find that when i searched for it. thanks edbian
[00:14] <Benkinooby> elijah, it is called wireshark
[00:14] <edbian> joshlegs: sure
[00:14] <nsadmin> edbian, ubuntu did it out of the box tho... it must have set that up during install... how to find out what it did?
[00:14] <joshlegs> grrr. samba is one frustrating program lol
[00:14] <EgyParadox> elijah:You mean something like nslookup?
[00:15] <joshlegs> ill have to hit up the samba support channel i think
[00:15] <edbian> nsadmin: I don't know.
[00:15] <th0r> joshlegs: swat?
[00:15] <EgyParadox> elijah: man nslookup
[00:15] <joshlegs> hm. whats swat th0r?
[00:15] <escott> elijah, ahhh fun i had forgotten all about dig. "just dig it" dig nytimes.com
[00:15] <th0r> joshlegs: if you are having problems configuring samba, you might want to google swat
[00:16] <joshlegs> oh ok. thanks th0r. i'll do that :)
[00:16] <escott> elijah, the server you get the response from is at the bottom of the results
[00:16] <joshlegs> gracias por el ayuda, as they say in spanish lol
[00:16] <elijah> escott: and EgyParadox - thanks, they both worked!!!
[00:16] <murazz__> edbian, that is my question... i don't know which one is it...
[00:16] <Benkinooby> elijah, hey, escott is right... just use the dig command... you will see what server responded
[00:16] <gmed> Hi all, im trying to install ubuntu 11.04, but it freezes when loading gparted. I tried alternate CD, no lucky. I got to put the cd loading into a separated partition (where I am now).  anyone?
[00:16] <tonyk> hello everyone, yesterday my power supply got fried and i replace it today, but also ubuntu got damage so i had to re install... i have ubuntu partition, home directory in another partition, where all my docs, music and data was/is... now instead of being sdb it's sda and i cant access my old data which still there cause if i mount sda2 shows 40 being used which is what i use to have, how can i access my account and get all my settings back
[00:16] <tonyk> instead of doing it all over again?
[00:16] <Benkinooby> elijah, hey, escott is right... just use the dig command... you will see what server responded - no need to install wireshark
[00:17] <Awolf> hey all
[00:17] <elijah> Benkinooby: thanks
[00:17] <Awolf> hope you're all fine
[00:17] <murazz__> edbian, is it possible to close by system manager?
[00:17] <edbian> murazz__: That's what I'm thinking
[00:17] <Benkinooby> elijah, credits go to escott
[00:17] <Benkinooby> :)
[00:18] <urlin2u> tonyk, sdb and sda are HD descriptions, do you have more than one HD?
[00:18] <Awolf> guys is there anyone who can help me in understanding why doesnt flash on mozilla in ubuntu 11.04 write or display RTL languages while on windows it works right
[00:18] <Awolf> ?
[00:18] <Awolf> can anyone help me in fixing this?
[00:18] <escott> Sav_, fat also has a 4gb single file limit. so no big renderings/movies/dvd images
[00:18] <CoJaBo> Stupid Question: How do I rm a file named (hex) "0xDB08" ?
[00:18] <gadgetdevil> Hello everyone, question about KVM/libvert. I am using Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud and I want to verify that my virtual machine instance is using my network bridge to connect to the network. Is there a command in virsh that would let me view what physical cards are connected to VM?
[00:18] <tonyk> not any more before changing the  power supply i did, but now i just have one
[00:18] <Sav_> escott: Oh damn. That's probably important.
[00:18] <escott> CoJaBo, rm "0xDB08" if that doesn't work and you can stat the file then you can remove by inode
[00:19] <Sav_> escott: Should DEFINITELY reformat it then
[00:19] <CoJaBo> escott: The file is literally named the bytes DB, 08.
[00:19] <escott> CoJaBo, then stat it and rm it by inode
[00:20] <Awolf> is there anything in synaptic or any package that would support RTL in flash player?
[00:20] <urlin2u> tonyk, your description is hard to understand for me, can't you just open the partition in the new install or with a live cd?
[00:20] <nsadmin> or if you want it, rename it
[00:20] <nsadmin> maybe your filesystem is misbehaving, find out
[00:20] <CoJaBo> escott: How do I rm by inode?
[00:20] <nsadmin> perhaps... there is a mah page for a program that removes files...
[00:21] <tonyk> sorry for that urlin2u, let me try better... about your question i dont know how to access from the new installation my old folder but in media the ecrypt folder exist
[00:21] <tonyk> so i can say its accessible i just dont know how
[00:21] <escott> find . -inum 782263 -exec rm -i {} \;
[00:21] <foobar1> another guy with the same problem, for 2009 :/
[00:21] <foobar1> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305856
[00:21] <urlin2u> tonyk, ah a encryted partition it helps to know these things.
[00:22] <escott> CoJaBo, see above combo of find with rm to remove by inode
[00:22] <urlin2u> tonyk, I have no idea.
[00:22] <tonyk> is it possible to get my setings and programs from that parition instead of downloading everything again?
[00:23] <CoJaBo> escott: Thanks. Egads, thats a nasty bug xD
[00:23] <urlin2u> tonyk, you didn't copy the encrypt passphrase as youe told to do.
[00:24] <urlin2u> you're
[00:24] <CoJaBo> (it wrote crash-debug info to a file without initializing the buffer containing its name)
[00:24] <tonyk> you mean at the begining of first session?...yes i record my passphrase
[00:27] <spike1> Hi
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> hi spike1
[00:28] <spike1> Just installed Ubuntu, been playing with Mint and this I think I wll go with this for now
[00:29] <tonyk> in my new account i give same name and same psswd that last one
[00:29] <spike1> I don't mind the Unity layout, I think it looks modern
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> spike1: its a lot like marmite
[00:29] <spike1> Change can be good
[00:29] <spike1> lol
[00:29] <spike1> Agree
[00:29] <urlin2u> spike1, if you like mint you might like this.  http://pinguyos.com/
[00:29] <spike1> Thanks
[00:29] <Noz3001> i find that unity in oneiric is miles better than natty
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> thats all we need, more spinoffs :(
[00:30] <tonyk> for example if i install another ubuntu version in the partition sda1 how could i keep using my home folder that is in sda2?
[00:30] <escott> tonyk, your password unlocks a file that contains the key used to encrypt the files, so the same password isn't enough
[00:30] <berndj> does anyone else experience the (non-vm) desktop (sporadically) forgetting my appearance prefs? when i go back to preferences > appearance, i can almost hear the desktop saying, "oh crap, let me get back your preferences" and it gets fixed. 10.10 btw but how mysterious!
[00:31] <escott> tonyk, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[00:31] <berndj> (i tried googling it but only got to bugs implicating VMs and race conditions)
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: set the partition as /home andthe same filesystem but NOT be formatted, set the other partitions as normal but to BE formatted
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: as long as your first user has the same name it will be fine.I do it all the time
[00:32] <spike1> I was playing with dual boots and played so much uninstalling etc ended up with a grub rescue error, so have it installed on a seperate hdd now think thats better.
[00:33] <tonyk> ActionParsnip actually thats what i did... sda1 format and use as mount point for ubuntu, leave sda2 intact but i cant see my music files or any other data neither the programas i doinload...i believe it coiuld be a pproblem of changing sda as now from sdb as before...could this be making troubles?
[00:34] <maalac> i'm recieving this email from ams.operations.
[00:34] <Mithadon> alright! I finally got 10.04 installed on my laptop. However now it detects no wireless connections. How do I fix this?
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: if you didn't tell the OS to use the partition as /home then it won't get added to /etc/fstab for you
[00:34] <urlin2u> Mithadon, is it a brosdcom card
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: run:  sudo lshw -C network    what is the product name for the wireless
[00:34] <urlin2u> broadcom
[00:34] <spike1> Like this xchat community is good, nice to know you can ask for help for free
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> Mithadon: also, use a wired connection and get full updates
[00:34] <Alan502> How can I run a command when ppp0 comes up?
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: here is mine:    UUID=9aad41ee-107f-4919-8802-83fabffb9118 /home           ext4    defaults,user_xattr        0       2
[00:35] <shinsuke> nautilus is way to slow. what can we do to make the developer increase the performance?
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: your blkid WILL be different
[00:35] <maalac> Mithadon: use the interface Add Additional drivers it will install the wireless for you\
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: you can see yours by running:  sudo blkid
[00:36] <acid_> hey
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> hi acid_
[00:37] <Mithadon> maalac I only see "hardware drivers" under system > administration but then it fails because I'm offline
[00:37] <tonyk> ActionParsnip now i have the UUID but how can i use to access that partiton?
[00:37] <acid_> nm what u up to
[00:37] <Mithadon> do I have to use the ethernet?
[00:38] <maalac> Mithadon: yes, you should be connected. do apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade
[00:38] <the-penguin> CLN84: your back, does your battery work now?
[00:38] <dcg> tonyk: just a silly question, if you type "mount" at the command line, is that partition mounted?
[00:38] <tonyk> ActionParsnip UUID="96aa5caa-0767-4b31-a875-f5b52fdbb6ba" this is mine but how i use this to access it?
[00:38] <the-penguin> dcg, no
[00:39] <acid_> soo what is everyone doing
[00:39] <tonyk> dcg it is as sda 2
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> tonyk: add the line in /etc/fstab and reboot
[00:40] <JakeR003> hello
[00:40] <dcg> tonyk: before you reboot....
[00:40] <the-penguin> anyone here have a fix for the ATI Radeon X12xx bugs?
[00:40] <JakeR003> is there a way to have a network static icon given reading in ubuntu? i want it to stick somewhere either on the desktop or the task panel
[00:40] <dcg> tonyk: try typing .... "sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt" then check that the contents of /mnt are what you expect
[00:41] <sebseb> Hi, I have been trying to get the alpha3 i386 alternate image to work. When answering yes to an encrypted home dir no user is created (not in /target/etc/passwd).
[00:41] <ActionParsnip> sebseb: oneiric chat in #ubuntu+1 please
[00:41]  * the-penguin is away: Be Right Back, Give me 5.
[00:41] <rww> sebseb: #ubuntu+1 for oneiric discussion and support, please
[00:42] <Mithadon> alright sorry, I'm totally new to it, but I don't even see how to get connected using the ethernet cable on 10.04
[00:42] <dcg> tonyk: if the contents of /mnt is something like a directory for each user on the system eg: "tonyk  wife  son" then add a line that looks like....
[00:42] <Monster123> I cannot access my ubuntu files from the windows partition :/
[00:42] <ActionParsnip> JakeR003: ubuntu used network manager which is in the panel..
[00:42] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: windows is crippled and can't
[00:42] <Monster123> But I can access my windows files from uuntu
[00:42] <KM0201> Monster123: thats a good thing
[00:42] <Monster123> Reall?
[00:42] <Monster123> oh man :(
[00:42] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: yes because the ntfs-3g guys put effort in and worked out how it work
[00:42] <rww> Monster123: Windows does not include support for the filesystems commonly used on Linux.
[00:43] <maalac> Mithadon: restart your machine and make sure the ethernet is connected..
[00:43] <KM0201> Monster123: windows cannot mount ext4 partitions (although i think there's a 3rd party utility to do it, it doesn't work)
[00:43] <Monster123> Right I see
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: there is www.fs-driver.org which may give access to ext4 (I know it does ext3 and ext2 but ubuntu usesext4 by default(
[00:43] <tonyk> dcg ok, i got my tonyk folder which is admin, and also appears the everyone account i used to have in the before resinatlling ubuntu... but when i click on tonyk  there are only to read files one says access your private data desktop and readme.tx but they are reading files no folders
[00:43] <dcg> tonyk: UUID="96aa5caa-0767-4b31-a875-f5b52fdbb6ba"  /home  ext4  defaults,user_xattr  0  2
[00:43] <Monster123> My second question is, when I run a linux disk I can see my windows files on my HDD
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: blame microsoft
[00:43] <Monster123> So I'm guessng I' going to have to use truecrypt or something
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: again, Ubuntu can easily access NTFS
[00:43] <Monster123> Yeah
[00:43] <Monster123> It's annoying
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: convenience is annoying?
[00:44] <tonyk> dcg and restart?
[00:44] <dcg> tonyk: add the above line to /etc/fstab, then reboot. I "hope" that should solve your problems.
[00:44] <tonyk> thanx a lot
[00:44] <tonyk> let me try
[00:44] <Monster123> Well worrying..not annoying
[00:44] <tonyk> ill be back soon
[00:44] <Monster123> someone could steal my laptop
[00:44] <Monster123> and just boot a linux disk
[00:45] <Troy> does anyone know if there is any down data centers in north america?
[00:45] <dcg> tonyk: be aware that any customisations and data that you have added to any user directories since installing will vanish :)
[00:45] <bkerensa> Monster123: If your super worried you could setup PamUSB and make it nuke your file system which bleachbit if someone tries to compromise it
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: yep, that's how cummy your OS is. You can encrypt to protect. Encrypted filesystem is offered in Ubuntu installation
[00:46] <dcg> ActionParsnip: looks like I missed tonyk with that. I have to go to work. could you please let him know that last bit when he gets back?
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: you can also boot to an ubuntu CD and reset your administrator password then log in
[00:46] <Monster123> ooo PamUSB gonna have to research that
[00:46] <Monster123> Really!
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> dcg: I'm off to bed bro,its near 2am
[00:46] <Monster123> Is away to change the windows password from a ubuntu disk
[00:46] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/14369/change-or-reset-windows-password-from-a-ubuntu-live-cd/
[00:46] <dcg> ActionParsnip: ok, I guess he will find someone to help then :)
[00:47] <Monster123> oh god!
[00:47] <szal> Monster123: and with Windows you could easily catch a trojan or something through which someone could steal your data w/o needing to steal your laptop :P
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: yep
[00:47] <JakeR003> damn ubuntu is so good
[00:47] <Monster123> You've all made me security made now
[00:47] <JakeR003> you can bookmark network shares
[00:47] <JakeR003> amazing
[00:47] <Monster123> I'm gonna try and lock down everthig
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: basically, Windows has nearly ZERO  security if a person has local access
[00:47] <Monster123> lol!
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> Monster123: have fun
[00:48] <JakeR003> Monster123 you install ubuntu for what?
[00:48] <sara> i amhaving problem with my laptop internal mic ubuntu 10.10.. it is enabled and unmuted
[00:49] <sara> any1 can help?
[00:49] <welly> Hi chaps. I'm trying to figure out how to use inotify. I need to run a script when files get added or updated in a particular directory. Does anyone have any suggestions how I might do this?
[00:49] <joshthetechie> Can anyone help me with enabling sound on the back speaker jack on my Dell Inspiron Zino HD?
[00:49] <Mithadon> still cant connect with ethernet after reboot :/
[00:49] <Monster123> for the learning experience JakeROO3

[00:50] <dAnjou> hi, so i read that with 9.04 swap gets encrypted too when the users chooses to encrypt home. but what about /tmp?
[00:51] <lilcyber> dAjou I don't think they encrypte home
[00:51] <lilcyber> *encrypt
[00:51] <lauratika> dcg
[00:51] <szal> dAnjou: 9.04 is dead
[00:51] <lauratika> it work like a charm
[00:51] <lauratika> thanx a lot mate
[00:51] <lauratika> really apreciated
[00:52] <S4nD3r> When I try to enable compiz, I got this: Desktop effects could not be enabled, how solve it? In lsmod shows me video 19280 i915. how use this driver correctly?
[00:52] <sara> i amhaving problem with my laptop internal mic ubuntu 10.10.. it is enabled and unmuted
[00:52] <sara>  any1 can help?
[00:52] <joshthetechie> Sound works with the headphone jack but not with the speaker (audio output) jack
[00:52] <dAnjou> szal: that doesn't matter, and i didn't ask that
[00:52] <Mithadon> how would I go about installing ethernet/wireless drivers on ubuntu?
[00:52] <dAnjou> lilcyber: what?
[00:52] <lauratika> jus a second question... now i have to download all my applications again but files still here...is there a way to have my programs on the same partition as hopme that way i dont have to install again all aplications?
[00:52] <bkerensa> sara: Whats the issue exactly?
[00:53] <th0r> lauratika: nope
[00:53] <lilcyber> They don't encrypt the /tmp folder, if it says they only encrypt the home folder
[00:53] <szal> dAnjou: 9.04 is as unsupported here as in the German channels ;)
[00:53] <dAnjou> lilcyber: are you sure or is this a guess?
[00:53] <lauratika> hi
[00:53] <sara> well  mic it not responding/working.. volume is at max and it is not muted . it is selectedin my in my input devices
[00:53] <lilcyber> A little of both, mostly sure.

[00:59] <Mithadon> so once i have the info on the ethernet and network controllers, what do I do fro there?
[00:59] <bkerensa> sara: then add options snd-hda-intel model=realtek

[01:02] <chili555> Mithadon, your ethernet uses the module atl1c which is installed by default in Natty and needs to be compiled from sours ce in earliear versions
[01:02] <bkerensa> rww: you are such a renegade :P
[01:03] <Mithadon> im on 10.04 because 11.04 crashed on install

[01:10] <goatbrains> hi all.  having a problem with nvidia restricted drivers and a cx23880 dvr card installed.  won't boot to gui with card installed.  boots to gui with nouveau.  any ideas?
[01:11] <lauratika> hello every one i made a text file with all the programs install, now that i have to reinstall all my applications again i wonder if there is a way to use the list to do  an automatic download
[01:11] <Mithadon> chili555: will do, for now though it requests sudo password but i cant input anything
[01:11] <lauratika> ??
[01:11] <bdizz> shinsuke: good idea!
[01:11] <wildbat1> is there a simple  tools can do PREC style multiline regex replace on file(s)?
[01:11] <chili555> Mithadon, lets meet on the forum. thats an easy one
[01:11] <bdizz> thanks everyone for giving me some ideas. I will do my own hw from this point
[01:11] <murazz__> how can I close a window that says "Click on a window to force the application to exit. To cancel press <ESC>" by system monitor? it's not responding by pressing ESC key
[01:12] <gogeta> lauratika: you can just sudo apt-get install and list all the programs
[01:12] <chaddy> murazz__: xkill, perhaps
[01:12] <dcg> lauratika: just remember that any "new data" eg config etc that was created on the new install in your home directories will have vannished. if you need it back comment out the /etc/fstab line and reboot, copy wanted stuff to a different drive, then restore the fstab line
[01:12] <gogeta> lauratika: sudo apt-get install program1 program2 and so on
[01:12] <murazz__> chaddy, I dont know the process name
[01:13] <dcg> lauratika: no, you will need to reinstall apps after a system install
[01:13] <gogeta> lauratika: so as long as you text file is formated like that cops and past
[01:13] <gogeta> copy
[01:13] <murazz__> chaddy, I killed a program but it's still static on screen
[01:14] <dcg> ResQue: try looking at "man bash" there is a whole section on changing the bash prompt
[01:15] <bdizz> You guys ever notice fonts acting weird in firefox too? All my n's are messed up
[01:16] <dcg> ResQue: check history with pageup. but only for the current session.
[01:16] <W43372> Trying to set up bluetooth on my netbook to share some files with a friend and in the bluetooth preferences the option for sharing my public folder is grayed out and it says this feature is not enabled ebcause the required packages are not installed on your system, what do?
[01:16] <dcg> ResQue: it is possible to turn on logging for a channel. try "/help log" for info
[01:16] <jessicajames> Has anyone used the "Ubuntu Netbook" desktop environment? Can you tell me how it's different from the regular ubuntu desktop environment?
[01:17] <ResQue> dcg: thanks and thanks, i was hoping there was a simple command that would highlight or scroll through the room chat and show anything that was related to my name
[01:17] <gogeta> jessicajames: none unity is standerd
[01:17] <W43372> what package am I supposed to install?
[01:17] <pooltable> how do i share info conect two computer desktop = ubuntu netbook=windows 7 ?
[01:18] <rww> jeiworth: Ubuntu Netbook no longer exists. It was dropped when Desktop switched to Unity.
[01:18] <gogeta> pooltable: as long as windows firewall isnt blocking it it should show up just like another sharing enabled windows pc
[01:18] <rww> jeiworth: sorry, mistab. jessicajames ^^^^
[01:18] <dcg> shinsuke: if you want to run something *after* you have logged in to gnome, a runlevel won't help. you need to add it to your gnome session. look at System > Preferences > Startup Applications
[01:19] <Mithadon> chili555: posted a reply
[01:19] <pooltable> gogeta where do i look under?
[01:19] <murazz__> chaddy, xkill -frame tkx
[01:19] <JakeR003> is there a way to change the firefox 5 skin in ubuntu?
[01:19] <jessicajames> oh rww, I'm installing via wubi so I don't know which to use (I'm running a netbook, but with 8gb of ram and comparitevely higher specs than a regular netbook)
[01:19] <ManateeLazyCat> Linux Deepin provide linux job at China, if you interested please look http://www.linuxdeepin.com/recruitment , thank you ! :)
[01:19] <chaddy> murazz__: good stuff
[01:20] <jessicajames> so is it just not supported?
[01:20] <JakeR003> it's too dark
[01:20] <gogeta> pooltable: the network tab in windows 7
[01:20] <jessicajames> I'm not very familiar with ubuntu jargon (coming from fedora)...like what 'unity' means, rww
[01:20] <rww> jessicajames: personally, I always preferred Desktop on netbooks anyway
[01:20] <rww> jessicajames: the user interface (on top of GNOME) that Ubuntu uses now
[01:20] <gogeta> pooltable: if you have a shared folder in ubu ntu enabled
[01:20] <dcg> lauratika: yes, if the text file contains the package name. try "sudo apt-get install $(cat filename)"  check out the man page for apt-get, there should be a "dummy run" type option
[01:20] <gogeta> ubuntu
[01:21] <w30> jessicajames, I have Lubuntu on a netbook. It is really lightweight and ideal for my netbook that wouldn't hardly run XP
[01:21] <gogeta> pooltable: windows 7 genrates a password you will need ti enter in ubuntu to connect to it from ubuntu
[01:21] <jessicajames> thanks w30
[01:22] <pooltable> gogeta i need to connect to a network how
[01:22] <dcg> ResQue: default irssi config should highlight your name.
[01:22] <jessicajames> i'm guessing the latest version of ubuntu gnome is 3.0
[01:22] <gogeta> pooltable: you whant to connect to windows or ubuntu
[01:22] <gogeta> jessicajames: there is no gnome 3 ubuntu only unity
[01:22] <dcg> ResQue: sorry not your name, but the name of a poster that uses your name :)
[01:22] <w30> jessicajames, I recommend that you try Lubuntu live cd or put it on a flash drive to try before you buy.
[01:23] <gogeta> jessicajames: unless you downlaod one of the many 3rd party remixes
[01:23] <pooltable> gogeta not sure what is easy ?
[01:23] <gogeta> pooltable: if you have a shared folde rin ubuntu it should aruldy be visable
[01:23] <gogeta> in
[01:23] <jessicajames> w30, BUY?
[01:23] <pooltable> gogeta i use ubuntu the most for now windows is wife
[01:23] <rww> gogeta: Ubuntu oneiric uses Unity on top of GNOME 3. There is no GNOME /Shell/ Ubuntu, however
[01:24] <gogeta> pooltable: have you set any shared folders yet
[01:24] <w30> jessicajames, the cost of a net connection and a blank cd (ha)
[01:24] <PauloRFP> i don't play cs 1.6 on steam  =/
[01:24] <werte10> alguien podria decirme como instalar gnome 3 y quitar unity
[01:24] <pooltable> gogeta no
[01:24] <werte10> en la version 11.04
[01:24] <dcg> lauratika: if your file does not contain package names, try installing aptitude, then after having a read of the man page, use it to do the installs. it is generally faster than using the gui for lots of installs.
[01:24] <w30> jessicajames, and you valuable time.
[01:24] <gogeta> pooltable: then right click a folder you wanna share and slect shared
[01:25] <rww> !es | werte10
[01:25] <jessicajames> yeah time's most important haha :)
[01:25] <gogeta> pooltable: then it should show up on the windows side
[01:25] <gogeta> pooltable: same thing for windows but windows will whant a password
[01:25] <werte10> gracias
[01:25] <pooltable> gogeta i do not see a thing on network
[01:26] <dcg> lauratika: a tip.... use "/~dsudoku" to find the firts listed package that has "sudoku" in its description. "n" will search for the next package that matches.
[01:26] <gogeta> pooltable: do you have a shared foilder set
[01:27] <pooltable> gogeta not yest i do not know where to start?
[01:27] <dcg> lauratika: I have to go to work now. should have opened the doors at the workshop 30min ago... if you have any further questions ask in the pm, and I will try and answer later in the day.
[01:27] <shinsuke> dcg thanks
[01:28] <gogeta> pooltable: in ubuntu just right click a folder you whant to share in windows 7 go to controle panel network and internet then homegroup
[01:29] <pooltable> gogeta i want to shre the wold hard drive same way ?
[01:29] <pooltable> share
[01:29] <acid_> hey i was wondering is there any way you can ping everyone in a chat lobby at once and receive the replies
[01:29] <gogeta> pooltable: you can if you whant but normaly 1 folder is good enough
[01:30] <gogeta> pooltable: after you got the homegroup setup and you right click a entire drive and tell it its shared
[01:30] <gogeta> pooltable: right click propterys sharing
[01:31] <ShadesEdge> Hello, when I log in the live-cd of Ubuntu 11.04, it gives me the choice of English and French, but not Canadian french keyboard.
[01:31] <ShadesEdge> Why?
[01:32] <pooltable> ggeta ok what do i need to do on ubuntu first
[01:33] <gogeta> pooltable: ubuntu is aruldy configured for it
[01:33] <ShadesEdge> It's very weird because even the hardest distro includes cf keyboard support
[01:33] <ShadesEdge> :P
[01:33] <gogeta> pooltable: just set a folder you wanna share
[01:33] <gogeta> pooltable: or drive
[01:33] <ShadesEdge> How can I choose the cf keyboard in the Ubuntu live-cd?
[01:33] <ShadesEdge> :(
[01:34] <pooltable> gogeta i do not know how do im set it up ?
[01:34] <rww> ShadesEdge: Are you talking about the first screen for selecting language, or the second screen for selecting keyboard layout?
[01:34] <enix311> hello all. I am on ubuntu 11.04 and plugged in an internal HD via some bought wires externally. Everything went fine, file browser came right up and i browsed some folders. After about 5 minutes i clicked on another folder and the browser hung then Force Closed. Now my ubuntu system doesnt see the HD at all.           Any ideas?
[01:34] <gogeta> pooltable: for example your home folder right click you will see shared in that menu slect it
[01:34] <ShadesEdge> rww: What second screen? All I get when I try to try it in live is the language
[01:34] <gogeta> pooltable: done
[01:34] <ShadesEdge> Nothing else
[01:35] <ShadesEdge> Is there a file to edit?
[01:35] <rww> oh, you're doing "Try Ubuntu", not "Install Ubuntu", huh. hrm.
[01:35] <ShadesEdge> :P
[01:35] <ShadesEdge> Because actually, I don't want to install Ubuntu, I want to have the live desktop to then install Funtoo :P
[01:35] <Alan502> Is there a way to run a command when a network connection is established?
[01:35] <gogeta> pooltable: it will have a shared icon on it after you do that
[01:35] <pooltable> gogeta on connect to server is that it?
[01:35] <gogeta> pooltable: same for windows
[01:36] <gogeta> pooltable: hua
[01:37] <gogeta> pooltable: i ahvent delt with it sense gnome 2 i relly donne what it will say excaly
[01:37] <gogeta> havent

[01:38] <pooltable> gogeta i c well i am lost and do not know what to do to share info from ubuntu to windows 7
[01:38] <gogeta> pooltable: its so easy its sad heh but i guess the first time around its a bit confusing
[01:39] <fr500> pooltable: shared folders?
[01:39] <gogeta> fr500: yea
[01:39] <gogeta> fr500: i tryed he doesent get it
[01:39] <Loshki> Alan502: see 'man interfaces', the 'up' command....
[01:39] <ShadesEdge> So... Any idea on how to have the cf keyboard in the Ubuntu live-cd?
[01:39] <ShadesEdge> :(
[01:40] <pooltable> fr500 i have 2 floder i like to share what do i need to do to get it to work
[01:40] <fr500> gogeta: I see, did you tell him to install smbfs?
[01:40] <gogeta> fr500: it aruldy is unless its changed
[01:40] <fr500> pooltable: you need to install samba I guess
[01:40] <fr500> and configure it
[01:40] <pooltable> samba
[01:40] <pooltable> ok
[01:40] <gogeta> fr500: samba is installed by defult
[01:40] <fr500> gogeta: no it's not
[01:40] <gogeta> fr500: sense when
[01:41] <fr500> a samba client for gnome is installed
[01:41] <fr500> but not the samba server
[01:41] <gogeta> fr500: are you shure
[01:41] <fr500> not 100% but installing samba is trivial (sudo apt-get install samba)
[01:41] <gogeta> fr500: in 10.10 all i had to do was right click a folder
[01:41] <Alan502> Loshki, so, basically
[01:41] <Alan502> ifup ppp0
[01:41] <fr500> gogeta: that's samba user shares, I'm pretty sure it installs samba right at that moment
[01:41] <Alan502> <command to execute>
[01:41] <pooltable> i look up in USC what one ?
[01:42] <Alan502> right?
[01:42] <gogeta> fr500: ah maybe been a wile
[01:42] <gogeta> fr500: just rember it was painless
[01:42] <fr500> gogeta: but you're right gnome user shares should be easier for a newbie
[01:43] <fr500> never actually used it
[01:43] <gogeta> fr500: i just set a folder to shared everything installed and configured
[01:43] <j2daosh> is there anyway to quiet the messages from ffmpeg? when doing conversions, it prints all the modules it was built with and a load of other crap i dont wanna see.
[01:43] <fr500> pooltable: did you try doing what gogeta asked? right click a folder and select shared fies over network?
[01:45] <pooltable> fr500 do not have the share
[01:46] <gogeta> fr500: lol see unless its not in unity hes not getting the idea
[01:46] <hack27> .
[01:46] <pooltable> share folder oppation?
[01:46] <gogeta> yea
[01:46] <fr500> pooltable: press alt-f2 type nautilus, then select your folder, right click it and select properties
[01:46] <fr500> pooltable: then follow that guide http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-user-share/stable/gnome-user-share-getting-started.html.en

However, I'm trying to help a friend fix their Dell laptop on which Ubuntu is loaded (I think it's 10.4) - the previous owner changed "Applications" to open the Chromium web browser, "Places" opens Epiphany, and "System" opens Google Chrome.  Any idea how I can reset those to Ubunto defaults?

[02:02] <Sheesh^> malena: well, the Ubunto icon isn't visible - someone put a number of folders on the desktop; I right-clicked o one and then clicked Help - it tells me it's Nautilus 2.30.1.   It's sort of like Windows Explorer.  Where would I find the relevant executable in the file system?
[02:02] <malena> can anyone help me making work a epson stylus tx110 (multifunctional inkjet)?
[02:02] <kenny__> w30 i can see the netcard in ethtool lshw etc. but it wont regonise that it has a cable in it

[02:10] <MrSmoke> "start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" anyone got a fix?

[02:11] <jeffc12003> Can someone help me configure my microphone?
[02:12] <JakeR003> but scrolling in ubuntu programs is fast
[02:12] <MrSmoke> would removeing and installing mysql fix the "start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" error?
[02:12] <MrSmoke> removing*
[02:13] <Doodie> hi, my home/username folder has only desktop icon, all other folders are lost. what should i do?

[02:14] <j2daosh> anyone know how to turn off output messages in ffmpeg?
[02:15] <kenny__> Hello, i just installed ubuntu 10.04, now my onbord network card doesnt work for some reason, and if i dual boot to 11.04 or windows 7 it doesnt work either, i checked cable and changed it but doesnt help
[02:17] <robin0800> kenny__, laptop ? wireless switch?
[02:17] <kenny__> robin0800, desktop wired
[02:18] <Doodie> home/user folder has all the folders. but are hidden. showing hidden files doesnot solve this. what to do?
[02:18] <w30> kenny__, I have never had a network card not work with any Linux install in the last 5 years
[02:19] <centHOGG> hmm
[02:19] <Loshki> j2daosh: can't you just redirect them into a file? e.g. ffmpeg args... > /tmp/ffmpeg.out 2>&1
[02:19] <robin0800> kenny__, something nasty has happened to it if it has stopped working in windows did it every work?
[02:19] <kenny__> w30, well i had 11.04 yesterday and it worked fine there and in windows, i just wanted back to 10.04 lts and then this happen
[02:20] <kenny__> robin0800, it worked 20 min ago before i installed ubuntu 10.04
[02:20] <w30> kenny__, any power surges or lightning strikes around anywhere?
[02:20] <kenny__> w30, nope
[02:21] <th0r> kenny__: the first thing I would check, does the nic show up in the hardware manager in windows?
[02:22] <kenny__> th0r, not sure. i'm on ubuntu right now, with iphone as modem, how ever it show up in ubuntu just disconnected
[02:22] <robin0800> kenny__, windows and Linux use different drivers so if neither works its probably the card
[02:22] <w30> kenny__, can you borrow a card from someone to try out?
[02:22] <Loshki> kenny__: onboard nics can and do occasionally fail. Particularly if you disturbed the hardware. Consider a cheap offboard replacement nic card. Oh, and check your bios...
[02:22] <MJBrune> ifconfig shows eth0 with interrupt 17 how can I fix this?
[02:23] <th0r> kenny__: does it show up in ifconfig?
[02:23] <kenny__> w30, sadly not, gonna have to buy one then
[02:23] <kenny__> th0r, yes eth0
[02:23] <th0r> kenny__: does it show up in network manager?
[02:23] <kenny__> Loshki, yea but weird that it still shows that it's here and not completely disabled
[02:23] <thiebaude> kenny__, how old is the nic card?
[02:23] <kenny__> th0r, in ubuntu ? if so yes
[02:24] <kenny__> thiebaude, the motherbord "since its onbord" is around 9 months
[02:24] <thiebaude> ahh ok
[02:24] <th0r> kenny__: can you bring it up in network manager? What happens if you try?
[02:24] <gmachine_24> Hi - I want to lower the brightness of my computer screen - I am running 10.04.03LTS on an HP notebook - I lower the brightness as much as possible via system>preferences>power management but I need to make it darker. Also, every time I reboot the computer, the screen resets to 100 percent brightness - which is blinding - really, you have to see it to believe it. I am looking for a permanent...
[02:24] <gmachine_24> ...fix - is there something in one of the config files I can use? Thanks.
[02:24] <kenny__> th0r, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1822696 al the info i have about the nic
[02:25] <kenny__> th0r, nothing happens. just stays disconnected
[02:25] <Loshki> kenny__: done a complete power off shutdown? Some hardware (e.g. nics) don't fully reset unless you unplug it from the wall and let the capacitors drain...
[02:25] <kenny__> Loshki, could try that, havent done that - how long would i have to wait you say ?
[02:25] <MJBrune> ifconfig shows eth0 with interrupt 17 how can I fix this?
[02:27] <Loshki> kenny__: a couple of minutes should be plenty, but you must disconnect from the mains, because stuff like wake-on-lan means as long as there's any power at all, the devices are still working...
[02:27] <w30> kenny__, Are you connecting to a router, if so does the router work for other machines?
[02:27] <kenny__> w30, i'm connected to a switch and then a router and it works for other computers in the household
[02:28] <MrSmoke> anyone got a fix for "start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused"
[02:28] <kenny__> Loshki, okey will try that
[02:29] <Loshki> kenny__: w30 is right. The port on the switch could have gone bad. Swap it for a known good one?
[02:29] <kenny__> Loshki, just tried that
[02:29] <j2daosh> Loshki: it doesn't work.
[02:29] <Loshki> !work | j2daosh
[02:29] <w30> kenny__, just a thought because my Comcast connected router gets a migraine and I have to give it a total reset wwith a toothpick in the hole
[02:30] <arrty> hi, what's the best way to create a backup / image of my entire system?

[02:32] <zonyl> Hi.  Im looking for a simple anonymous web proxy software to install (something like phpproxy).   What is the best suggested package to to install for this?
[02:32] <arrty> so i want to do image the entire drive while it's still her
[02:32] <Mithadon> yay, finally got the ethernet to work on 10.04... now how do I get wireless installed, and video as well I guess (to increase resolution)
[02:33] <psoulos> hey guys, I'm having trouble with apt-get update. I keep getting this warning:  http://pastebin.com/kanrvv5s
[02:34] <arrty> could i just dump everything in / to a tar?
[02:35] <MrSmoke> how can i upgrade the kernal without going to 10.10 or 11.04
[02:39] <Loshki> arrty: yes, you can dump everything to a compressed tar. To restore it, untar it, reinstall grub, and you should be ready to boot... See also dump/restore which I prefer for this kind of thing...
[02:40] <JakeR003> guys when i click save ass there is no shared drives in that windows.. how can i add the shared drivers to " save file " windows?

[02:45] <myiam> I open more then one dock
[02:45] <myiam> by accident
[02:45] <escott> urlin2u, some genius at thunderbird decided it would be a good idea to delete the account config if anything at all is wrong with the setup. its brilliant
[02:45] <myiam> and now I cant remove them untill i only have one left like normal
[02:47] <seanmc98> whats a linux box?
[02:47] <seanmc98> like a virtual box with linux?

[02:50] <CLN84> my left mouse button just quit working :-)
[02:50] <seanmc98> how do i make a tmp directory for a moount point/
[02:50] <seanmc98> mount*
[02:51] <urlin2u> INFURNO, go to edit on the first gui, or right click the channel and remove from favorites.
[02:51] <JimmyNeutron> sudo mkdir /tmp
[02:52] <w30> command mkdir name_of_directory_that_you_want_it_to_be
[02:52] <kroq-gar78> does anybody know why the application "Simple Scan" isn't showing in the unity launcher???
[02:52] <seanmc98> JimmyNeutron: /tmp being like if i want it on desktop it would be mkdir /home/sean/Desktop/tmp ?
[02:53] <seanmc98> kroq-gar78: is it installed/
[02:53] <carlos> Simple scan not loaded on launcher, but you can pin it after opening it
[02:53] <JimmyNeutron> seanmc98, yes...but you wont need to sudo anymore because its in your home directory
[02:53] <myiam> ?
[02:53] <myiam> fuck..........nvm
[02:53] <seanmc98> JimmyNeutron: PM?
[02:54] <kroq-gar78> !language | myiam
[02:54] <JimmyNeutron> best to ask in the channel in case i cant answer the question :)
[02:54] <JimmyNeutron> or go afk
[02:56] <kroq-gar78> seanmc98: It's installed and open, i can alt-tab to it, but it's not in the launcher. carlos: even if I pin it, it doesn't show it as opened. it just keeps "flashing" (like it's trying to open it, but I can never get to the window through the launcher)
[03:02] <jessicajames> I'm having trouble installing my wireless driver for ubuntu 11.04 (apprently the driver doesn't exist anymore). lspci shows AR9285 and ubuntu shows me that I'm supposed to install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic , but that doesn't even exist

[03:04] <milamber> jessicajames: how are you going about it?
[03:04] <jshmoe12> I can get it to connect and everything but it won't go to any webpages it just stalls
[03:04] <jessicajames> i just looked for linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic in the package manager milamber
[03:04] <jessicajames> and it cant find it
[03:04] <jessicajames> (ive used fedora for over a year, this is my first night on ubuntu)
[03:05] <milamber> jessicajames: what tutorial are you trying to follow?
[03:05] <jshmoe12> Anyone good with using openvpn network manager client to connect to vpns?
[03:05] <jessicajames> milamber, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Atheros/AR9285
[03:06] <tripelb> jessicajames, fedora is very cool. a liveCD told me my disk was dying before Ubuntu could do that.
[03:06] <milamber> jessicajames: what repos do you have enabled?
[03:06] <jessicajames> none, other than default. i don't even know which ones to enable in ubuntu and how to do it
[03:07] <jessicajames> tripelb, yeah i loved it but wanted to try something new and ubuntu looks a lot sleaker than it did a few years ago!
[03:07] <jshmoe12> what are u trying to get done jessicajames?
[03:08] <milamber> !info linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic lucid | jessicajames
[03:08] <jessicajames> jshmoe12, get wireless to work on my netbook :( AR9285

[03:08] <jessicajames> so i need to enable the linux-meta repo for ubuntu?
[03:08] <jessicajames> milamber, ^^
[03:09] <jshmoe12> jessica see if u can do a sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic lucid in your terminal
[03:09] <jshmoe12> I pretty sure thats what milamber was saying
[03:09] <urlin2u> jessicajames, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list   is the repo list be careful this will open it read and write.
[03:10] <jshmoe12> oh im sorry i was wrong
[03:10] <jshmoe12> that is the source
[03:10] <milamber> jshmoe12: the extra lucid tells the info bot that i want info for lucid
[03:10] <jshmoe12> right my fault
[03:10] <jshmoe12> sorry guys
[03:10] <jessicajames> jshmoe12, output says "Unable to locate package linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic"
[03:10] <syntaxx> hi is it possible to reuse a specific lvm partition without formatting it during install?
[03:10] <jshmoe12> that was my fault
[03:11] <milamber> jessicajames: can you please pastebin the output of: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
[03:11] <jessicajames> of course milamber

[03:12] <jessicajames> looks like i need to enable a repo, but I don't know which one or how to go about doing it in ubuntu..
[03:12] <Pat201> i ran bleachbit as a superuser and i believe it damaged my system, is there a chkdsk equivalent for ubuntu
[03:12] <urlin2u> jessicajames, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:13] <fr500> Pat201: what does bleachbit do?
[03:13] <jessicajames> urlin2u, do I need to uncomment lines in that file?
[03:13] <jessicajames> if so, which ones?
[03:13] <kroq-gar78> Pat201: fsck
[03:13] <urlin2u> jessicajames, yeah just the #
[03:13] <fr500> Pat201: there is of course, fsck but you shouldn't run it on a mounted filesystem
[03:14] <kroq-gar78> Pat201: not too sure how to use it though, so can't really help you with it. maybe fr500 can ;)
[03:14] <urlin2u> jessicajames, they are named look for the back ports by hitting crtl-f then type in backport
[03:14] <tripelb> jessicajames, good luck. I'm sticking with the LTS that's 10.04 -- I'm a user not an innovator.

[03:15] <tripelb> jessicajames, tho the guys in #xchat are trying to get me to convert.
[03:15] <jessicajames> urlin2u, i did that, saved the file, and it still can't find the package. do i need to restart a service first?
[03:15] <milamber> !lucid | tripelb
[03:15] <Pat201> how am i supposed to unmount this partition then run a command on it?
[03:15] <urlin2u> jessicajames, you need to run a update
[03:16] <milamber> jessicajames: run: sudo apt-get update
[03:16] <kroq-gar78> I have a strange "dependency" problem with my canon pixma mx330. It says "Dependency problems: cannot configure" or something like that when I try to install the deb drivers. Here is the ubuforums thread, but nobody really posted there so I'm giving it a try here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1806287
[03:18] <Device> hi can i have some one help :D
[03:19] <aeon-ltd> Device: ask away
[03:19] <milamber> kroq-gar78: the line where it says  package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64) is probably the issue, is there a correct package for your system?
[03:20] <__matheus> hello friends, my ubuntu 10.04 after logon freeze screen... after logon i receive one message of the problem in power-manager with options of the cancel and block screen, after few seconds the screen disappear and the logon works, but the screen stay freeze, the toolbar stay freeze and i can't do nothing...
[03:20] <jessicajames> milamber and urlin2u, i uncommented the lines, ran the update, and it still can't locate the package :(
[03:20] <jessicajames> this isn't making any sense
[03:20] <kroq-gar78> milamber: nope. I used --force-architecture when using dpkg -i because only a 32bit/i386 package was available.
[03:20] <nikitis> Is there a way to log the commandline usage of a user on your linux system?
[03:20] <pyguy7> __matheus could be a hardware problme like overheating
[03:20] <jessicajames> I ran the update via apt-get and the GUI method

[03:21] <chaddy> nikitis: pacct
[03:21] <jessicajames> and double checked the conf file to make sure the lines were uncommented
[03:21] <milamber> jessicajames: can you pastebin your sources.list please?
[03:21] <jessicajames> yes, one sec
[03:21] <chaddy> sorry, nikitis, acct

[03:26] <linuxuz3r> yeah me too
[03:26] <centHOGG> what plan would you get
[03:26] <milamber> jessicajames: you are trying to install a package for lucid in a natty machine. 10.04 is lucid. 11.04 is natty.
[03:27] <JWFoxJr> ok, on natty x64, did tasksel install lamp-server, a2enmod userdir, restarted apache, but still getting 403 error in the user's public_html directory - directory set to 777 - any ideas?
[03:27] <linuxuz3r> 15 $ plan
[03:27] <jessicajames> thanks milamber, im apparently retarded
[03:27] <JoeR1> Can anyone recommend a good program for mounting .bin/.cue disc image files?

[03:29] <linuxuz3r> cool
[03:29] <jshmoe12> JoeR1 that tut i posted will add a option to the right click menu to mount images
[03:29] <milamber> jessicajames: my google-fu came up with this: http://blog.homelinux.org/?p=327
[03:30] <sgo11> hi, anyone use blender 2.5? When I run blenderplayer, it fails to run. it gives the error msg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/663112/
[03:30] <JoeR1> jshmoe12, I have not a need of contextual menu support but thanks for the link
[03:30] <jshmoe12> right on :)
[03:31] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, try #blender
[03:31] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, I come from there. I may ask again...
[03:31] <jessicajames> milamber, so apparently I just need to create a file, add one line into it, and reboot?
[03:32] <Dice-Man> sgo11: /j #blender ??
[03:32] <jessicajames> No installing anything apparently?....I guess it doesn't hurt to try, but is that what you're seeing too?
[03:32] <jshmoe12> linuxuz3r, u familiar with network-manager-openvpn plugin?"
[03:32] <sgo11> Dice-Man, I was asking in #blenderchat. I may try #blender now. thanks.
[03:32] <milamber> jessicajames: that is what the site is saying - i just googled it
[03:33]  * jessicajames is going to reboot. brb
[03:33] <hack27> wat are good program like photoshop or dreamweaver

[03:34] <JWFoxJr> ok, on natty x64, did tasksel install lamp-server, a2enmod userdir, restarted apache, but still getting 403 error in the user's public_html directory - directory set to 777 - any ideas?
[03:35] <rww> JWFoxJr: is /home/username/ set to allow o+x?
[03:35] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, what does blender player do?
[03:35] <linuxuz3r> is it a video player
[03:35] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, no. it's a game engine.
[03:35] <linuxuz3r> oh
[03:35] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, play blender made game.
[03:35] <JWFoxJr> rww: I don't believe so, just the public_html is. I'll give that a shot
[03:36] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, did you install from source or from package
[03:36]  * tripelb waves at milamber - I said I used that one! (10.04) I felt so safe when all these people were complaining about natty
[03:37] <JWFoxJr> rww: that did the trick - now I just have to fix it so that it'll run the php files
[03:38] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, not from source. not from package. I just run it after unpack. blender 2.5 is not in source. the source has a really old version.
[03:38] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, I download it directly from official website.
[03:38] <jessicajames> milamber, didn't work :(
[03:39] <lauratika> does anyone kows how can i export my radio station list from banshee...more like a backup of my radio stations i have more than 20 and there is just import option. anyone?
[03:40] <HaH-Tarball> (test message)
[03:40] <centHOGG> lauratika: best to do it manually by notepad
[03:40] <centHOGG> or such
[03:41] <lauratika> thanx but could be a pain in the neck to copy manually so many stations for some other people, mine are just 20
[03:42] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, im downloading it now
[03:42] <JoeR1> linuxuz3r It seems I do not know how to make use of the disc image mounting capabilities of fuse because all of the needed packages were already installed
[03:42] <linuxuz3r> what version of ubuntu are you using
[03:42] <JoeR1> \me?
[03:42] <linuxuz3r> JoeR1, http://maketecheasier.com/mount-iso-bin-and-cue-files-from-nautilus/2009/05/23
[03:44] <jessicajames> milamber, a comment on this page fixed it for me. http://helms-deep.cable.nu/~rwh/blog/?p=177
[03:44] <jessicajames> thanks for all your help tonight guys!
[03:45] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, hey it seems my system cant run blender
[03:45] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, I am asking in #blendercoders. one guy gave me the answer: blender uses bundled python3. blenderplayer by default use OS python installation. by default I think ubuntu don't install python3. that's the problem. he said he had a fix for this. I need to download it later from official website.
[03:46] <Blade20> if i wanted to format a hdd so that i would not need to mount it every time i restart....
[03:46] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, then you must install python3
[03:46] <milamber> jessicajames: thanks for following up with us (it often doesn't happen)
[03:46] <evan_> hey everyone. I just downloaded an update from update manager this morning for adobe flash 64 plugin, and now I am having problems with flash player.
[03:47] <Blade20> evan_,  downloaded from where?
[03:47] <linuxuz3r> evan_,  are you in 64bit ubuntu?
[03:47] <evan_> linuxuz3r,  yes
[03:47] <psilo23> Hi everyone, i am creating my bash script and im trying to get the output of all commands into a text file, i have a book here that says i can use >> at the end of the command to send it to a file, but it doesnt work, anyone know what the right way is ?
[03:47] <evan_> Blade20 ubuntu update manager
[03:47] <psilo23> *my first bash script
[03:47] <psilo23> :P
[03:48] <linuxuz3r> evan_, yeah im having the same problem
[03:48] <Blade20> evan_, using firefox?
[03:48] <evan_> linuxuz3r ah :D
[03:48] <linuxuz3r> psilo23, can i see it?
[03:48] <evan_> Blade20 yes firefox
[03:48] <evan_> youtube plays fine but i can't watch streams like on justin.tv
[03:48] <psilo23> i need to edit it to get my info out, and its kinda crappy tho :P
[03:49] <psilo23> i just need to know how to get the outcomes of all commands into a txt file
[03:49] <Blade20> evan_, linuxuz3r go into firefox  tools tab and addons and search for "flash aid" install it and then run the wizard it will fix your problems
[03:49] <psilo23> i am trying to figure it out for hours now and this book i have just doesnt tell me the right way
[03:49] <JoeR1> so if I understand correctly, I am faced with some fat honky B******T, I can't have a nice program to mount bin/cue files without a contextual menu?
[03:50] <milamber> sgo11: i just downloaded the new stable 25 and it is running fine for me. any reason you are running blenderplayer instead of just blender?
[03:51] <Jordan_U> JoeR1: The swearing is not needed, asterisks or not.
[03:52] <Blade20> any way that i can format a 1tb hdd so that i will not have to mount it every time i restart?
[03:52] <centHOGG> our lives are ruined
[03:52] <milamber> psilo23: can we see your script?
[03:52] <milamber> !automount
[03:52] <Jordan_U> !fstab | Blade20
[03:52] <evan_> Blade20, I just tried that and still no fix. It actually froze now when I tried a youtube video
[03:53] <psilo23> milamber: sure but i need to edit it first, brb
[03:53] <JoeR1> Jordan_U, with the sheer amount of fecal matter I have had to deal with on behalf of Ubuntu you should count yourself blessed that I am able to maintain this level of composure
[03:53] <psilo23> my info is inside hehee
[03:53] <Blade20> evan_, did you run the wizard ?
[03:53] <sgo11> milamber, sorry, I was busy to ask question in #blendercoders. blenderplayer will simply play the game. blender is the editor.
[03:53] <milamber> !pastebin | psilo23 just in case you didn't know
[03:53] <evan_> Blade20, yes. I am running stable flash version to see if that helps
[03:54] <evan_> Blade20, I tried wizard like it said but just froze
[03:54] <Blade20> evan_, you may need to kill everything else ... then run the wizard
[03:54] <Jordan_U> JoeR1: We are volunteers. Please be respectfull and civil if you would like our help.
[03:55] <evan_> Blade20, ok I ran quick mode and selected install stable flash and now it works :)
[03:55] <Elyob_> Hi - Odd question. I just got a VPS with ubuntu server on, I've installed a gui, and vnc server... However the gui needs to be running to start the vnc, and I can't startx over ssh... watdo?
[03:55] <Blade20> evan_, that is the only work around i have found as of right now for flash on a X64 system
[03:55] <bonks> Is it possible to setup an encrypted vpn on ubuntu that I can connect to using an android phone?
[03:55] <Blade20> evan_, so it did help :)
[03:55] <evan_> Blade20, yea it works. thank you sir :)
[03:55] <Blade20> evan_,  no problem glad i could help :)
[03:55] <evan_> Blade20, I think it downgraded it but atleast it works now
[03:56] <Blade20> evan_, they are working on a stable version for the X64
[03:56] <evan_> Blade20, ya I guess i better wait before I try installing it from the update manager
[03:56] <kroq-gar78> I have a strange "dependency" problem with my canon pixma mx330. It says "Dependency problems: cannot configure" or something like that when I try to install the deb drivers. Here is the ubuforums thread, but nobody really posted there so I'm giving it a try here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1806287
[03:56] <JoeR1> Jordan_U, I could manage no more than current without risking a full cranial explosion - Responding to this message will be fruitless as I intend to be having a cigarette as soon as enter is pressed
[03:56] <Sheesh^>  Loshki: Sheesh^: um, does this help? http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[03:56] <linuxuz3r> evan_, i got it to work but not from update-manager
[03:57] <Blade20> evan_, i'm just going to wait till "flash aid" says it's stable lol
[03:57] <Sheesh^> Loshki: thanks, after I managed to figure out how to boot to root by holding the shift key, that did it. ;)
[03:57] <evan_> linuxuz3r, yea me too. I had to downgrade to the last stable version
[03:57] <evan_> Blade20, good idea lol
[03:57] <psilo23> milamber: http://pastebin.com/3M10jFtp
[03:58] <linuxuz3r> evan_, have you tried the incubator build?
[03:58] <linuxuz3r> evan_, im using the beta i think
[03:58] <evan_> linuxuz3r I don't think so. my version # is <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:58] <linuxuz3r> JoeR1, did you solve your problem
[03:59] <linuxuz3r> evan_, im using 11.+
[03:59] <psilo23> its just a test script, it uses ffmpeg, a few python scripts and a php script to create a video of a jpg + mp3, send it to youtube, create a blogspot post send the video to twitter and facebook and creates a bit.ly short link from it
[03:59] <psilo23> lol
[03:59] <Jordan_U> JoeR1: .bin and .cue files are generally used for audio CDs. Since audio CDs don't really have a filesystem they generally aren't "mounted". What is your end goal?
[03:59] <linuxuz3r> i just put it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and chmod 777 libflashplayer.so
[03:59] <psilo23> milamber: but its my first script so i think its a bit messy :D
[04:00] <Blade20> evan_, a thought.... you may want to go back to the package manager... uninstall that one and then run flash aid again to see if it can install the X64
[04:00] <JoeR1> linuxuz3r, No, however I intend to forgo this route in favor of another solution I feel more confident in
[04:00] <alpha> hi,i just switched to ubuntu 11.04 64-bit.i was prompted to install some nvidia graphics driver.but after installing it i am not able to get any desktop effects
[04:00] <evan_> linuxuz3r and the 64bit works? I just tried installed the upgrade to 10.4.1 and it stopped playing certain things
[04:00] <linuxuz3r> its 64bit beta
[04:01] <milamber> psilo23: i am not seeing the part you are trying to log?
[04:01] <Seven_Six_Two> I've installed 11.10 on a spare partition (wait for it), and I have 11.04 as main install. How can I reorder grub entries so that 11.04 is booted by default instead of 11.10?
[04:01] <adante> http://pastebin.com/mJ7HZknj hey is this disk failing or what
[04:01] <psilo23> well i want to log the commands
[04:01] <Seven_Six_Two> I read that I'm not supposed to fiddle with grub.cfg directly
[04:01] <n-iCe> hello I have a few questions, I own an AWUS036H usb wireless card, using the drive rtl8187 but seems to be faulty, cuz I can't download at my normally download speed I can't even surf If I don't set the rate to 5.5M in iwconfig wlan1, any ideas, please
[04:01] <adante> i need some sort of decoder ring to figure out whether this is bad or not
[04:01] <psilo23> because the outcome of several commands is a url
[04:01] <evan_> Blade20, I see here in the package manager that I have flashplugin-installer checked and there is a flashplugin64-install at version <IP_ADDRESS> not installed
[04:01] <JoeR1> Jordan_U, you grossly over generalize and, in fact, the bin/cue files in question are for a game, however since you ask I intend to mount them on my roommates computer in shared virtual drives and then use pyneighborhood to access them
[04:01] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, sudo grub-install /dev/sda  in natty
[04:02] <psilo23> so i want to have the output of those commands
[04:02] <psilo23> i now do it with printf, but its a strange way i guess
[04:02] <psilo23> :D
[04:02] <linuxuz3r> evan_, its odd that it is in 32 bit lib directory
[04:02] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, assuming the disc is sda
[04:02] <Blade20> evan_, you may want to give that a try then.... most it will do is mess up and you uninstall it
[04:02] <linuxuz3r> evan_, maybe thats why the flash-aid isnt working
[04:02] <Seven_Six_Two> urlin2u, I should be running 11.04 when I do that? and 11.04 is sda1, 11.10 is sda8
[04:03] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, yes notice no partition numbers your just reloading the mbr.
[04:03] <evan_> linuxuz3r, I got flash working but its just at a lower version
[04:03] <psilo23> bitlylink=`python bitly.py $blogytlink$ytid` and then a printf $bitlylink, i dont think that is the right way to do it milamber, to get the outcome of that python script
[04:04] <milamber> psilo23: so you have tried: ./mp3post.sh >> logfile.txt     ??
[04:04] <evan_> linuxuz3r, flashaid fixed it. I just had to downgrade from the update I installed this morning
[04:04] <Seven_Six_Two> urlin2u, I did sudo grub-install already, and 11.10 is still first (and default). Does saying sda make a difference?
[04:04] <linuxuz3r> You have version 11,0,1,98 installed
[04:04] <psilo23> roflol, no, i have tried to put it inside the script :P
[04:05] <evan_> linuxuz3r, no I have <IP_ADDRESS>. I will try uninstall this version and installing 11 and than use the flashaid
[04:05] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, what ever one you run sudo grub-install /dev/sda in will be the controling boot , grub will have it first in the menu.
[04:05] <alpha> i just switched to ubuntu 11.04 64-bit.i was prompted to install some nvidia graphics driver.but after installing it i am not able to get any desktop effects .how do i get it to work??
[04:05] <JoeR1> Jordan_U, you have turned my attention to a possible issue I had not previously considered - It is possible that Ubuntu is ill suited to power users such as myself, I lack the high level programmer savvy of many users I have encountered in here as well as the baby day innocence of many not so techno-savvy fiolks, is there perhaps a better distribution for the mid level users like myself?
[04:05] <Paranous> what is the package manangement system used by Ubuntu?
[04:06] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, if you run that command in Natty, natty wil lhave control, and be first in the grub menu.
[04:06] <milamber> !apt | Paranous
[04:06] <Paranous> Thank you ubottu
[04:06] <serpico> first time here!
[04:06] <Elyob_> Hi - Odd question. I just got a VPS with ubuntu server on, I've installed a gui, and vnc server... However the gui needs to be running to start the vnc, and I can't startx over ssh... watdo?
[04:07] <evan_> linuxuz3r, yea I uninstalled version 10 and then installed version 11 and ran flashaid but does not play
[04:07] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, milamber, sorry about the late reply, I was busy to ask questions in blender channel. I knew the solution. it's because of the python version. blenderplayer don't use bundled python by default. thanks a lot for the help.
[04:07] <serpico> does anybody now if µTorrent 3.0 works in ubuntu?
[04:07] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, so for example if you wanyed to remove ethier one og =f the installs you would run that command in the one you keepo so you don't loose the boot and have to reload the mbr from a cd
[04:07] <serpico> likes it does in win xp
[04:07] <n-iCe> hello I have a few questions, I own an AWUS036H usb wireless card, using the drive rtl8187 but seems to be faulty, cuz I can't download at my normally download speed I can't even surf If I don't set the rate to 5.5M in iwconfig wlan1, any ideas, please
[04:07] <Jordan_U> JoeR1: I would say no, but it's subjective (and better for #ubuntu-offtopic). For this particular problem I am fairly sure you would have the same difficultly solving the problem with any distribution. For other problems it's hard to say.
[04:07] <n-iCe> Quality=51/70  Signal level=-59 dBm
[04:07] <Paranous> I'm currently in Win7, with a Raid 0 array, and two extra HDDs, one is for Movie downloads the other is general storage, altough I have a 20GB/19GB partition from the backup volume, Could I utilize the 20GB partition for a dual boot of Ubuntu?
[04:07] <JoeR1> serpico there is a utorrent for linux but it runs in a web browser
[04:08] <Seven_Six_Two> urlin2u, aah, sorry. I did update-grub not grub-install. That worked just right. Thanks for your time!
[04:08] <sgo11> one more question if anyone know. with blender, I can not save the animation with xvid encoding. it uses ffmpeg and xvid somehow. I am not very familiar with this. any packages I need to install to fix this problem? thanks.
[04:08] <urlin2u> Seven_Six_Two, heh no problem.
[04:09] <linuxuz3r> evan_, how did you install version 11? did you change permission?
[04:09] <evan_> linuxuz3r, I installed it through package manager
[04:09] <MJBrune> i cant connect to my internet, ifconfig shows that eth0 has an interrupt of 15 and I am not sure what that means
[04:09] <linuxuz3r> evan_, you want an ubuntu pure flashplayer?
[04:10] <Jordan_U> JoeR1: Have you tried "sudo mount -o loop /path/to/disk_image.bin /mnt/" ?
[04:10] <MJBrune> what does interrupt 15 mean, anyone have a list of interrupts when it comes to ifconfig
[04:10] <Seven_Six_Two> Paranous, Likely it is
[04:10] <evan_> linuxuz3r, its fine actually. I am able to play everything good with no problems with 10.3
[04:10] <linuxuz3r> evan_, ok
[04:11] <evan_> linuxuz3r, thanks for the help though. I got it working again so its all good :D
[04:11] <bonks> Which vpn server can I install that is compatible with android phones?
[04:11] <JoeR1> Jordan_U, No, however it is inconsequential at this point as I am no longer pursuing a solution to the bin/cue mounting question having opted for a method that offers me certain advantages
[04:12] <milamber> Elyob_: from ssh does this work?: startx -- :0
[04:12] <Paranous> well downloading Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop amd 64, it's nice that it knows my processor type ;)
[04:12] <alpha> how  do i switch off nvidia card? i executed echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch which was given here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Laptops/Dell/XPS/15.but it says permission denied.help anyone please
[04:13] <milamber> alpha: you have to type sudo first
[04:13] <milamber> !sudo
[04:13] <asyhar> ,  i can remove or install snort, it says "invoke-rc.d: initscript snort, action "stop" failed.
[04:13] <asyhar> dpkg: error processing snort (--purge):

[04:13] <Jordan_U> alpha: First, are you prepared to recover if your machine freezes completely?
[04:13] <FloodBot1> asyhar: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:13] <alpha> milamber, yes i executed it with sudo
[04:14] <Paranous> tryit strait outas @?
[04:14] <milamber> alpha: can you pastebin it please?
[04:14] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, ok cool
[04:14] <alpha> Jordan_U, no
[04:15] <Jordan_U> alpha: Then you probably don't want to be messing with vgaswitcheroo yet.
[04:15] <alpha> milamber, pastebin what? the output?
[04:16] <alpha> Jordan_U, i was prompted to install some nvidia drivers .after installing them i lost whatever effects i previously had
[04:16] <asyhar> i can remove or install snort, any suggests?
[04:16] <Elyob_> milamber: No luck, thanks though :) "xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)"
[04:17] <Jordan_U> alpha: How did you install the nvidia drivers?
[04:18] <JWFoxJr> natty x64 created an application launcher for JetBrains PhpStorm, how do I add it to the Developer Tools menu in Unity?
[04:18] <alpha> Jordan_U, system>administration>additional drivers
[04:18] <Jordan_U> alpha: Have you tried removing them via the same menu?
[04:19] <Paranous> couldn't one install them via apt get, or manual compile them from the Nvidia site?
[04:19] <sgo11> ok. one more question. How to print the screen while the mouse clicked the menu in the topbar, eg: sound setup, time, network etc... .the printscreen button just doesn't work.
[04:21] <alpha> Jordan_U, no but i did think about it.but then i thought if i can juz switch it on or off that would be much better
[04:21] <alpha> Jordan_U, anyways ,i'm going to apply your solution
[04:22] <lnxn3rd> hey
[04:22] <lnxn3rd> anybody here?
[04:22] <blackshirt> yeah..hey lnkn3rd
[04:23] <blackshirt> how are you
[04:23]  * nsadmin is 10 miles from the keyboard in front of me
[04:23] <linuxuz3r> lnxn3rd, im here too
[04:23] <sgo11> is that possible to print the screen while the mouse clicked the menu on the topbar?
[04:23] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, i tried print screen on my keyboard but its not working
[04:23] <nsadmin> how would I go about connecting via wireless? seems that my driver is set up
[04:24] <sgo11> linuxuz3r, yeah, it doesn't work. I did many test including using import script.
[04:24] <alpha> Jordan_U, one question,it says in the additional drivers window that the driver is activated but not in use.is it possible that this may be the reason?
[04:25] <nsadmin> iwlist scan on all interfaces shows one that says "invalid argument"
[04:26] <nsadmin> 04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4727] (rev 01)
[04:28] <linuxuz3r> sgo11, does not work with menus are open
[04:29] <DrPenguin> Hey there. has ANYONE ever been able to get VMWare Server 2.0.2 to install on ubuntu 10.04? I followed the instructions online the ubuntu site for patching it and it doesnt work. I can't build the kernel modules for the server
[04:30] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, i wish i know how to do that
[04:32] <linuxuz3r> i think ubuntu is not friendly with compiling kernel modules
[04:32] <DrPenguin> neither is arch linux
[04:32] <linuxuz3r> i used to do it in redhat long time ago
[04:32] <DrPenguin> funny thing though.. Virtual box will load what I am trying to finagle.. now Ij ust need it to see my processors
[04:34] <sgo11> hi, how to install xvid codec for ffmpeg ? thanks.
[04:34] <linuxuz3r> but im thinking ubuntu is linux and it should compile and run kernel modules properly
[04:35] <user_daplun> jjj
[04:36] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, are you having problems compiling or running
[04:36] <linuxuz3r> ?
[04:36] <glebihan> sgo11, install the libdvdcss2 package
[04:36] <DrPenguin> compiling the kernel modules
[04:36] <sgo11> glebihan, thanks. let me try it.
[04:36] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, inside vmware?
[04:36] <DrPenguin> what?
[04:36] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, inside vmware?
[04:37] <urlin2u> sgo11, its in vlc as well
[04:37] <alpha> Jordan_U, alright i removed the driver but the situation is worse now.i cant switch between workspaces and top of every window is under the panel and i cant move the window.
[04:37] <DrPenguin> ... what are you asking
[04:37] <glebihan> sgo11,  oh wait
[04:37] <sgo11> urlin2u, i has already installed vlc.
[04:37] <glebihan> sgo11, that may not work, have a look at this instead : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6207546&postcount=3
[04:37] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, are you compiling inside vmware ubuntu installation?
[04:38] <DrPenguin> no this is a native ubuntu 10.04
[04:38] <sgo11> glebihan, I found this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg   do I still need to compile ffmpeg?
[04:38] <linuxuz3r> oh
[04:38] <urlin2u> sgo11, try this as well avifile-xvid-plugin  as apt-get or in synaptic
[04:38] <glebihan> sgo11, it's the same thing as what I just posted, and no need to compile ffmpeg
[04:38] <linuxuz3r> what kernel version are you compiling it against?
[04:39] <linuxuz3r> i might help
[04:39] <sgo11> glebihan, yeah, just read the page. thanks. I will try.
[04:39] <DrPenguin> 2.6.32-33-generic
[04:39] <linuxuz3r> lol its been a looooooooooooooooooong time since i compiled a kernel
[04:39] <sgo11> urlin2u, thanks for the reply. I will try glebihan's post first.
[04:39] <linuxuz3r> DrPenguin, what kernel source?
[04:39] <DrPenguin> wait.. why are you compiling a kernel? im trying to build the modules for vmware server not the kernel..
[04:40] <linuxuz3r> ok what kernel source are you building it?
[04:40] <DrPenguin> forget it, I think i got what I am trying to do working on Vbox
[04:41] <alpha> Jordan_U, you there??
[04:41] <DrPenguin> Its a miracle, VirtualBox works no problem.. VMWare Server = Crappy installer
[04:42] <hamnegga> Is there a way to grep more than one word/line when piping output?
[04:43] <DrPenguin> grep should "grep" whatever is thrown at it
[04:43] <DrPenguin> so if I cat a 10 line file and pipe it to grep, it will grep the entire thing
[04:43] <hamnegga> yeah so how could you throw at it two different words?  a comma separation doesn't work
[04:44] <sgo11> glebihan, all these unstripped libs can not be found with current ubuntu release. did they change the name?
[04:44] <sparky_> #ashup
[04:44] <glebihan> hamnegga, do you want to do a grep based on the fact that the line contains one of the words ?
[04:44] <dfgas> is it me or after a bunch of tabs in chrome that it lags your system down bad?
[04:44] <Jordan_U> alpha: Can you shut down (not by pulling the plug)?
[04:44] <glebihan> sgo11, one second, having a loog
[04:44] <glebihan> look
[04:45] <alpha> Jordan_U, yes
[04:45] <hamnegga> yes, for instance I'm grep'n the output of iwlist scans and I want printed lines that contain, ESSID and also channel
[04:45] <Jordan_U> alpha: Have you tried rebooting yet?
[04:45] <alpha> Jordan_U, yes
[04:46] <DrPenguin> so you want to grep for 2 individual things eh
[04:46] <glebihan> sgo11, are you running natty ?
[04:46] <sgo11> glebihan, yeah.
[04:46] <KE1HA> juar grep them in quotes "two words"
[04:47] <hamnegga> yes
[04:47] <Jordan_U> alpha: At the log in screen try choosing "Ubuntu Classic". It's just a work around to get things basically working but it's better than nothing.
[04:47] <glebihan> sgo11, ok then "sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-52" should work (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1117283)
[04:47] <alpha> Jordan_U, i'm working in ubuntu classic.
[04:48] <hamnegga> anyone got a SMA male to TNC female converter they want to donate to my cause?
[04:49] <sgo11> glebihan, I have libavcodec-extra-52 installed already...
[04:49] <Jordan_U> alpha: And you still don't see window borders?
[04:50] <glebihan> sgo11, and what error message do you get when you try encoding ?
[04:50] <alpha> Jordan_U, i reinstalled the nvidia driver and now everything seems normal except that i still dont have any desktop effects
[04:50] <Jordan_U> alpha: Can you pastebin the output of "glxinfo"?
[04:51] <alpha> Jordan_U, The program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[04:51] <alpha> sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
[04:52] <Jordan_U> alpha: Please do install mesa-utils.
[04:52] <alpha> Jordan_U, should i go ahead and install it?
[04:52] <alpha> Jordan_U, okay
[04:52] <JoeR1> "ERROR: Font family not found for Fonts/True Type/A&A.ttf" does anyone have any idea how to solve this one
[04:53] <glebihan> hamnegga, iwlist scan | grep -E -e "(ESSID|Channel)"
[04:53] <hamnegga> what is the e for?  threaded process?
[04:53] <Paranous> Can Ubuntu and Win7 be ran from the same system at the same time without VMware?
[04:53] <glebihan> hamnegga, about you grep question earlier
[04:54] <alpha> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/LdHccvsg
[04:54] <hamnegga> thank you, was just curious, but I'll check out the man page
[04:54] <glebihan> hamnegga, e if for pattern, E for extended regexp
[04:54] <KE1HA> it's a pattern match flag
[04:55] <Paranous> Wow, Ubuntu is even easier and more user friendly to use than Windows 7 lol...
[04:55] <Jordan_U> Paranous: Without VMware, yes. Without some type of Virtualization software (Virtualbox, KVM, XEN), No.
[04:56] <sgo11> glebihan, wait a second. sorry, I am confusing right now.
[04:57] <Paranous> I needed an irc app, so I simply type in IRC in applications dock, it gives me a list of apps to choose from, downloads my choice and boom, im g2g, I goto play a movie, the media player says hey I need xyz codecs, boom finds them, downloads installs, and now im watching a movie
[04:57] <theadmin> Paranous: How is that a problem? :D
[04:58] <JoeR1> how about this, can anyone tell me how to undo a file association? currently .cab's are set to be opened by ARK and I would like this changed
[04:58] <JoeR1> nevermind
[04:58] <glebihan> JoeR1, right-click on the file, select properties then go to the "open with" tab and select your application
[04:59] <Paranous> well, generally in windows you have to google an app for IRC then you have to buy mIRC or pirate it, I chose to buy it a long time ago. anywho afterwards you have to go manually hunt your video codec pak depnding on the media or download VLC although Media Player has no issues in 7 now a days but still.
[04:59] <cjs> How do I set my default login session in 11.04? It keeps going back to "Ubuntu," even after I log in using a different session.
[04:59] <sgo11> glebihan, it actually works. something wrong with the application I used. sorry to waste your time. thanks a lot for your help.
[04:59] <Paranous> glebihan,  what would the cli version to those instructions be?
[05:00] <glebihan> sgo11, you're welcome
[05:00] <theadmin> Paranous: Um, so... you'd rather google or pirate?
[05:00]  * theadmin is confused
[05:00] <KE1HA> JoeR1: you can also edit mime types both localy and systme side. Local: /.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list  system wide: usr/share/applications/defaults.list
[05:00] <Paranous> no, I was praising Ubuntu for how stupid simple it made the entire process vs the other methods
[05:00] <theadmin> Paranous: Ah lol :D
[05:01] <glebihan> Paranous, you mean cli version of what I said to JoeR1  ?
[05:01] <Paranous> yes
[05:01] <Paranous> glebihan,  yes
[05:02] <glebihan> Paranous, well that's kinda painful... you would have to edit some files in ~/.local/share/mime I think but not sure which ones
[05:03] <Paranous> I wish win7 had the workspace switcher built in, guess was too hard a concept for M$
[05:03] <theadmin> Paranous: You typically don't deal with DE things via CLI
[05:03] <Paranous> DE things?
[05:03] <theadmin> Paranous: You can find plenty online, but that's rather offtopic
[05:03] <theadmin> Paranous: DE = desktop environment
[05:03] <Paranous> ah
[05:03] <hamnegga> if only I could get sort -d to keep the quality and essid list working with that iwlist and grep command, I'd have a nice little script for quick network scanning, instead of using wicd or nm.
[05:04] <Paranous> what is the default DE / WM for Ubuntu? way back when mandrake wasant Mandriva I had used FluxBox and/or BlackBox
[05:04] <theadmin> Paranous: GNOME
[05:04] <theadmin> Paranous: Since 11.04, it also comes with "Unity"
[05:04] <Paranous> I believe im using Unity how can I find out?
[05:05] <royale1223> how do i setup an ssh tunnel in ubuntu?
[05:05] <theadmin> Paranous: Well, is there an ugly dock on the left?
[05:05] <k1rk> i need to find a way to cron an aptitude upgrade.
[05:05] <theadmin> Paranous: If so, that's Unity
[05:05] <Paranous> lol
[05:05] <linuxuz3r> how do you run vmware and boot to ubuntu using multi partition
[05:05] <Paranous> http://www.google.com
[05:05] <linuxuz3r> that is grub is on another partition
[05:06] <theadmin> !info cron-apt | k1rk
[05:06] <G00053> cli commands for monitering/diagnosing network issues ?
[05:06] <Paranous> linuxuz3r, http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=2&sqi=2&ved=0CCYQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vmware.com%2Fpdf%2Ffusion_getting_started_11.pdf&rct=j&q=how%20do%20you%20run%20vmware%20and%20boot%20to%20ubuntu%20using%20multi%20partition&ei=OmNDTo-dMOb50gG_itT2Bg&usg=AFQjCNH9XkjVd0zjnc4lGiLVLYnLFNmSWg&cad=rja
[05:06] <Paranous> woops
[05:07] <k1rk> theadmin, will that solve the problem I'm having where those bullshit "Y\N do you want to replace somebullshit.cfg" messages during my crons making it hang up?
[05:07] <Paranous> sorry about that, was trying to link www.vmware.com/pdf/fusion_getting_started_11.pdf
[05:07] <theadmin> k1rk: Yeah that automates everything
[05:07] <royale1223> how do i setup an ssh tunnel in ubuntu?
[05:08] <theadmin> Paranous: lol, Google...
[05:09] <theadmin> royale1223: If nobody knows nobody answers, you sometimes have to wait for the answer. It's a good idea to also post it on forums or askubuntu in the meantime
[05:10] <skraps> hey Im looking for hippie developers to help with this project!! Before it is taken advantage of www.phonesnake.com
[05:11] <theadmin> skraps: Do not spam.
[05:11] <skraps> its for a good cause, Im sorry
[05:12] <theadmin> skraps: Might be best to post it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:12] <skraps> thank you
[05:13] <Paranous> I just downloaded a new splash screen for Ubuntu, without any instructions on how to go about installing it, any ideas?
[05:13] <skraps> theadmin: we need to register the utility patent before someone else does so we can keep this system free
[05:14] <JoeR1> So i am trying to read the contents of some .cab's and cabextract told me they were Install shield files so i should use unshield and unshield tells me they are not valid Install shield files, suggestions?
[05:14] <rumpe1> Paranous, download without package-manager? Don't forget to backup your stuff.
[05:15] <royale1223> theadmin: what if somebody who knows didnt see the question?
[05:15] <theadmin> royale1223: Well you can repeat once in, I dunno, 10 minutes, just don't do it too often :D
[05:15] <skraps> someone needs to register the utility patent before its taken advantage of so it can stay free
[05:16] <bazhang> skraps, please stay on topic, that has nothing to do with ubuntu support
[05:16] <wsbl-uhpd651> zykotick9: Thanks for your help last night.  I finally fixed the problem by editing the fstab file in the 9.10 live CD.  Took a few tries, but I finally got everything entered back into the fstab file correctly ...
[05:16] <royale1223> theadmin: well, do you know the answer?
[05:16] <royale1223> :D
[05:16] <Paranous> If makes you feel any bettr it came from http://art.gnome.org/themes/splash_screens
[05:16] <theadmin> royale1223: Nope.
[05:16] <theadmin> royale1223: Not into that stuff
[05:16] <royale1223> Networking stuff?
[05:17] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: Thanks for your help again last night too.  I finally fixed the problem by editing the fstab file in the 9.10 live CD.  Took a few tries, but I finally got everything entered back into the fstab file correctly ...
[05:17] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, cool I had lost hope you'r emy hero. ;)
[05:18] <theadmin> royale1223: Yeah, I hardly know how to configure the network from command-line without netcfg
[05:18] <GreenCloud> hi, does anyone know how to disable the xsplash screen at boot up? thanks!!
[05:19] <royale1223> k
[05:19] <bazhang> !nox | GreenCloud
[05:19] <stealz> I am trying to get StarCraft II to run unter Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit. It says Couldn't initialize DirectX. I've read that I am supposed to install the 32-bit part of my video drivers (NVidia GTX 580) but I have no Idea how to do this...
[05:19] <theadmin> bazhang: That's not what he wants...
[05:19] <royale1223> So who answers the network related questions?
[05:19] <theadmin> GreenCloud: Append "nosplash" to your grub line
[05:19] <bazhang> stealz, with wine?
[05:19] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: yeah.  for some reason I wasn't understanding that when you edit fstab in live CD (even in a previous version of Ubuntu), it universally applies.
[05:19] <stealz> I found that under arch you need to install lib32-nvidia-utils but that package doesnt seem to exist on ubuntu
[05:19] <stealz> bazhang, yes, wine
[05:20] <bazhang> stealz, #winehq for particular app help
[05:20] <JoeR1> ok how about this, Can anyone recommend a GUI for accessing .cabs?
[05:20] <stealz> bazhang,  I was there, they said I should ask in my distro channel
[05:20] <theadmin> stealz: yay Arch xD
[05:20] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: someone else helped me put a copy of it in /mtn/ubuntu/etc/fstab ... once on the live CD in 9.10 ... and that did the trick.  We were missing that small detail before
[05:20] <stealz> theadmin, I have no clue about arch =)
[05:21] <stealz> theadmin, its just the only clue I could find so far
[05:21] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: manipulated a copy of fstab this way, that is ...
[05:21] <GreenCloud> thank you guys! i will try that... brb in a sec
[05:21] <theadmin> stealz: Ah
[05:22] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, I haven't had to edit much by mounting anything, actually we covered that several times.
[05:22] <jessicajames> where can I turn desktop effects on/off in ubuntu natty?
[05:23] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: It was my first time really dealing with it too, so rookie mistakes.  I still can't get the flash drive to mount, though.  I still get this error: "Error mounting: mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock"
[05:23] <jetscreamer> try just sdb
[05:23] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, you will get good at this stuff and feel the pain of helping where you have to watch every step, like the posting of the cd's fstab. ;)
[05:23] <theadmin> jetscreamer: Ain't gonna work
[05:24] <GreenCloud> theadmin: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nosplash" ... is this correct?
[05:24] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Sounds like a damaged partition, try "fsck /dev/sdb1" before mounting
[05:24] <theadmin> GreenCloud: I don't know how to deal with GRUB2, but I guess yes
[05:24] <jetscreamer> fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[05:24] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: when I run sudo blkid, what comes up for sdb1 is "UUID="0000-0001" TYPE="vfat"
[05:25] <JoeR1> I need help accessing .cab files
[05:25] <jetscreamer> install cabextract orange and.. i forget
[05:25] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: OK, I'm gonna try that ...
[05:25] <GreenCloud> theadmin: if i screw this i might never be able to boot, right?
[05:25] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, with anything external I have windows and linux so I just start searching if either will format. Strange blkid
[05:25] <jetscreamer> they all access cabs
[05:26] <JoeR1> jetscreamer cab extract was unsuccessful
[05:26] <something4> HI, Anyone know how I start vnc through SSH?
[05:26] <theadmin> GreenCloud: Nah, reinstalling GRUB is no problem.
[05:26] <theadmin> GreenCloud: To me at least.
[05:26] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: I don't mind helping people too.  I hope I can get good enough to be of more use to other users ...
[05:26] <GreenCloud> theadmin: oh yeah! i forgot... you're right...
[05:27] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: I'm pretty sure when I tried this flash drive on a Windows machine last night - it though it was a CD drive ...
[05:27] <JoeR1> jetscreamer, cabextract claimed I needed unshield and unshield claimed the cab was not an install shield file
[05:27] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, you will, you stuck with that until you fixed it. personally I start to wiegh the time to fix against a fresh installl on my setups, but I have everything backed up.
[05:27] <GreenCloud> theadmin: i can still fix grub using a live-cd just in case... tnx!
[05:27] <jetscreamer> unshield that was it
[05:27] <glebihan> GreenCloud, do not forget to run update-grub once you've edited /etc/default/grub
[05:28] <GreenCloud> glebihan: i will, thanks for reminding...
[05:29] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: yeah, once I get everything tweaked with my current install - I definitely need to backup everything ... so it can be easily re-engaged if need be.  Good call.
[05:29] <GreenCloud> ill go reboot...laterz guys!
[05:29] <jetscreamer> another is called orange, but might not work either, JoeR1
[05:29] <JoeR1> jetscreamer, orange seems to be similarly unsuccessful

[05:30] <something4> Anyone know how I start vnc through SSH?
[05:30] <theadmin> What... the heck was that xD
[05:30] <eskim0> join #ashup
[05:31] <SwedeMike> theadmin: looked like back in the old days with modem connections without ARQ.
[05:31] <urlin2u> theadmin, I was waiting for the server's to explode
[05:31] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: rysnc - what does that do?  Good plan ...
[05:31] <theadmin> SwedeMike: I guess lol, I don't think I even lived back then tho
[05:32] <JoeR1> jetscreamer, after finding out that the header file was corrupted and replacing it I have effectively locked up my terminal with a stream of error codes from orange
[05:32] <theadmin> SwedeMike: Not sure when those modems were
[05:32] <theadmin> SwedeMike: I just know I've never seen such issues
[05:32] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, I use a gui type grsync, you can set it to copy to another source, and remove the old and keep the new input, and others attributes.
[05:33] <SwedeMike> theadmin: well, I'd say not having ARQ went out of fashion mid to late 90ties. It was fairly common to see electronic messages include stuff like that in the 80ties.
[05:33] <stealz> whats the best way to kill the X server under ubuntu to install a GFX driver from command line?
[05:33] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, there is zsync as welll, I use both to sync the daily live cd's as well.
[05:33] <MarcelT3> hey there, is there a way to get info on how much memory all processes of a type together are using? some top/ps option or so...
[05:33] <SwedeMike> stealz: sudo service stop gdm
[05:33] <stealz> ty
[05:33] <SwedeMike> MarcelT3: what "type" is that?
[05:34] <MarcelT3> SwedeMike like there are ten instances of mysqld running and i need to keep an eye on mem
[05:34] <stealz> SwedeMike, stop: unrecognized service
[05:34] <theadmin> SwedeMike: Is "sudo service gdm stop"
[05:34] <theadmin> stealz: ^
[05:34] <stealz> ty
[05:35] <SwedeMike> theadmin: bah, I knew I shouldn't have tried to instruct someone the new way, I still use /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[05:35] <urlin2u> wsbl-uhpd651, here is a wiki on rsync http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync   there are web pages with all the commands most use a terminal I'm lazy.
[05:35] <tnm_> how do I add bookmarks to sidepanel in nautilus?
[05:36] <SwedeMike> MarcelT3: well, I'd use ps then, and create a oneliner to add up all the memory usage.
[05:36] <theadmin> SwedeMike: And I use "/etc/rc.d/lxdm stop", but yeah same thing xD
[05:36] <tnm_> Ok, i found out, you can add folder with add bookmarks option
[05:36] <tnm_> :D
[05:36] <hix-nix> hey guys
[05:37] <hix-nix> who knows of a good asset mgt prog?
[05:37] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: OK.  Check this out.  When I run "fsck /dev/sdb1", it spits back telling me that "There are differences between the boot sector and its backup".  A couple more lines, then gives me three otpions: copy original to backup, copy backup to original, and no action.  Which one do I choose?
[05:38] <wsbl-uhpd651> urlin2u: all very good information.  I have this advice copied and save in a text file.  I'll draw on it all later when "my goat gets to that bridge"
[05:38] <MrSmoke> Anyone have any idea how to fix "start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" yet?
[05:39] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: I... I think 2
[05:40] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Can't really be sure tho
[05:42] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: when I enter "2", it quickly gives me an output of "Both FATs appears to be corrupt.  Giving up.  Do I need to reformat this thumb drive using gparted?
[05:44] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: You could, yeah, that'd be the only option it seems.   So no worries there.  So once I am in gparted, how do I reformat my thumb drive to "ext4" ???
[05:45] <glebihan> MrSmoke, when do you get this error message ? Are you in a chroot environment ?
[05:45] <MrSmoke> well, basicially its when i run /etc/init.d/mysql start
[05:46] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
[05:46] <MrSmoke> it then says its been converted to an upstart
[05:46] <MrSmoke> and then fails
[05:46] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: No need for gparted xD
[05:46] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: OK, trying this now ...
[05:46] <glebihan> MrSmoke, you should run "sudo service mysql start" instead
[05:46] <MrSmoke> gives the same error
[05:47] <aurilliance> Does anyone know if there is a way to de-clutter the default gedit interface? I'm aware there are plugins for class-browsers and terminal windows and things, but I want to remove all the picture buttons at the top and just have a clean, text editing window. Any ideas?
[05:47] <glebihan> MrSmoke, could you pastebin the complete error message ?
[05:47] <theadmin> aurilliance: You sure you want gparted?
[05:47] <theadmin> aurilliance: err, gedit?
[05:48] <theadmin> aurilliance: Maybe pyroom is a better option for you, which is just that, a very uncluttered interface... Or you could always use Vim
[05:48] <MrSmoke> glebihan: http://pastebin.com/NDLtCUrL
[05:48] <aurilliance> theadmin, mm. I'm attempting to make my install more like textmate for mac, and have installed several plugins people recommend, but the interface is still very cluttered. I'm aiming for something between gedit's default and perhaps scribes.
[05:50] <MrSmoke> glebihan, im using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on an OpenVZ VPS
[05:50] <glebihan> MrSmoke, when did this error first happen ? Is it after installing/upgrading something ?
[05:50] <theadmin> aurilliance: Ah, well, I'm no Mac fan so can't help there. That and I don't use gedit >.<
[05:50] <stealz> I am running Dual Monitors with twinview, and some games/appliactions dont recognize it properly. they span across both screens or use only one but only half the window is shown, but streched etc
[05:51] <aurilliance> theadmin, :P
[05:51] <theadmin> aurilliance: Maybe there's an option to hide the toolbar in "View"?
[05:51] <MrSmoke> glebihan, umm, im not sure, but i havnt updated/upgraded anything for a while
[05:51]  * aurilliance looks
[05:51] <stealz> How can I make this work properly? I have checked into xconfig, but I couldnt really get it working with metamodes
[05:51] <aurilliance> theadmin, I feel foolish now. Well said.
[05:51] <theadmin> aurilliance: Huh?
[05:51] <aurilliance> theadmin, View->Hide toolbar
[05:51] <aurilliance> :P
[05:52] <propman> wsbl-uhpd651:  might want to try dosfsck on it.   never used it myself but might be worth a look-see
[05:52] <zruty> Any ideas why my Ubuntu crashes when I 'Safely remove drive' ?
[05:52] <theadmin> aurilliance: lol :D
[05:53] <theadmin> propman: We've reformatted it to ext4 by now
[05:53] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: the "sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1" command did the trick.  The flash drive opens up just fine now.  It won't let me access this "lost+found" directory on it though.  When command do I run as "sudo" to open this up to see what is in there?
[05:53] <SwedeMike> wsbl-uhpd651: if you just mkfs:ed it, lost+found will be empty.
[05:53] <glebihan> MrSmoke, what is your kernel version ?
[05:54] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Do not
[05:54] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: It's a ext4 thing
[05:54] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Used by fsck to recover damaged files or something
[05:54] <propman> theadmin:  lol oh well....
[05:54] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: No need to look there
[05:54] <MrSmoke> glebihan: Linux 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.pony6-1 on i686
[05:55] <wsbl-uhpd651> SwedeMike: I see.  And this is because when you reformat, it wipes everything - right?
[05:55] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: I don't need to keep this directory on there, then ... right?
[05:55] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Um, no, it's a filesystem thing... You can't (or at least shouldn't) delete it
[05:56] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: Just ignore it :D
[05:56] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: Oh.  OK.  No problem - I'll just leave it then ...
[05:56] <theadmin> MrSmoke: "pony"?
[05:56] <neoclasical> some1 from mexico?
[05:57] <theadmin> neoclasical: How is that of importance? This is a support channel, not a meeting place
[05:57] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: Great.  The main thing is that we got it to reformat and mount.  I just safely removed and slipped it back in - and no errors.  THANKS SO MUCH !!!
[05:57] <MrSmoke> glebihan: yeah thats what it says lol. I assume its from OpenVZ
[05:57] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: No problem... Obvious way really xD
[05:57] <neoclasical> i dont know speak eng very well
[05:57] <neoclasical> so i want some1 xplain me

[05:57] <glebihan> MrSmoke, could you find out the pid of the init process ?
[05:57] <neoclasical> e_
[05:58] <theadmin> glebihan: Um, sorry, but init always has the pid of "1"
[05:58] <neoclasical> #ubuntu-es
[05:58] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: good night.  I get to actually get to have some decent sleep this evening.  Last night - I kept pushing because my freakin' computer wouldn't even boot.  Like, not good ...
[05:58] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: lol... Well... Have a good sleep then
[05:58] <glebihan> theadmin, no not necessarily in virtualized environments, and that may just be the origin of the problem
[05:59] <theadmin> glebihan: Oh...
[05:59] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: lol.  K.  Have a Kudos bar for me ...  'Night ...
[05:59] <MrSmoke> glebihan: pidof init = 1
[05:59] <wsbl-uhpd651> theadmin: and Kudos to you ...
[05:59] <theadmin> wsbl-uhpd651: No problem.

[06:05] <glebihan> MrSmoke, maybe you should have a look a this : http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=38832&
[06:05] <glebihan> MrSmoke, looks a lot like your issue
[06:06] <glebihan> MrSmoke, btw, what is the output of "df" ?
[06:07] <glebihan> MrSmoke, well "df -a" rather
[06:09] <MrSmoke> glebihan:  /dev/simfs            31457280   5702004  25755276  19% /
[06:09] <MrSmoke> glebihan: i saw that post before, but i wasnt sure where the file to edit was
[06:10] <glebihan> MrSmoke, you only have that one line ?
[06:10] <MrSmoke> yep
[06:11] <TheOsprey> hi all
[06:11] <glebihan> MrSmoke, then try running the commands in the "pre-start script" section of the second post of that thread
[06:12]  * theadmin is back.
[06:13] <MrSmoke> glebihan: seems i already have that file, though it does contain a few other things that aren't the same
[06:14] <glebihan> MrSmoke, according to the output of df, those commands weren't executed, try running them manually
[06:14] <N0BOX> what do you do if your ubuntu system will no longer boot after an update (just rebooted, but the update was several days ago) and you aren't even able to boot into rescue mode?
[06:14] <MrSmoke> glebihan: http://pastebin.com/FgPWJiQZ  thats what i have so far
[06:14] <N0BOX> rescue mode boot attempt dies right after "NET: registered new protocol 1"
[06:14] <GreenCloud> hi, does anyone knows hot to completely disable plymouth in lucid... many thanks!
[06:14] <Hemebond> Anyone able to help me get a second monitor configured on Ubuntu 11.04 with Nvidia?
[06:14] <GreenCloud> *how
[06:14] <MrSmoke> glebihan: though they are all mkdir commands, not mount
[06:15] <theadmin> GreenCloud: Doesn't the nosplash thing work?
[06:15] <theadmin> GreenCloud: Might better work as "nosplash noquiet", I guess...
[06:15] <GreenCloud> theadmin: nope...
[06:15] <theadmin> GreenCloud: But idk
[06:15] <MrSmoke> glebihan: well, one is mkdir
[06:15] <GreenCloud> theadmin: went back "quiet splash"
[06:16] <glebihan> MrSmoke, could you pastebin the output of "cat /proc/mounts" ?
[06:16] <GreenCloud> theadmin: it's alright... plymouth takes longer so i think i'd focus on disabling plymouth for now
[06:17] <theadmin> glebihan: What's so wrong with /etc/mtab?
[06:17] <GreenCloud> theadmin: you have an idea how to disable plymouth??
[06:17] <theadmin> GreenCloud: I already did say the idea >.< Oh well
[06:17] <GreenCloud> theadmin: oh yeah....sorry, my bad!
[06:18] <ud> hi!!
[06:19] <glebihan> theadmin, that's what I'm trying to figure out, apparently the mounts for proc, devpts, sys, varrun and varlock didn't work, preventing upstart from working correctly
[06:19] <ud> i need some help in setting default run level to cli
[06:19] <theadmin> glebihan: Awkward really
[06:19] <theadmin> !runlevel | ud
[06:20] <theadmin> And...
[06:20] <theadmin> !nox | ud
[06:20] <Free-man> mornin
[06:21] <MrSmoke> glebihan: gimme a sec, just rebooting the server since i added those few extra commands in, see if they mount
[06:21] <glebihan> MrSmoke, ok let me know if it works
[06:21] <Free-man> MrSmoke why are you rebooting; just `mount -a' if all you did was add to fstab?
[06:21] <ud> @ubottu thanks man
[06:21] <theadmin> ud: It's a bot.
[06:21] <ud> i ll try it
[06:22] <theadmin> ud: No need to thank bots.
[06:22] <ud> k
[06:22] <MrSmoke> Free-man: because i added the commands in and also ran it manually, so i want to see if they will mount on startup
[06:22] <Free-man> MrSmoke fstab is handled automagically at run-script time; linux aint winders
[06:23] <glebihan> Free-man, he didn't edit fstab
[06:23] <Free-man> glebihan what was done?
[06:23] <glebihan> Free-man, the mount commands he added were for dummy file systems (proc, sys, varrun...)
[06:24] <Free-man> glebihan those are automag. handled at rc-boot time too
[06:24] <theadmin> Free-man: Yeah, except it's broken
[06:24] <glebihan> Free-man, that's why he is rebooting
[06:24] <theadmin> Free-man: So they don't mount :D
[06:24] <Free-man> well; if it's broke, why isnt he keeping both pieces? :)
[06:24] <Free-man> ok
[06:26] <glebihan> Free-man, the problem he has is pretty much the same as this : http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=38832&
[06:26] <Free-man> ty
[06:26] <MrSmoke> expect i added 2 of the mount lines into openvz.conf and now it wont boot up
[06:26] <MrSmoke> though running the commands manually was fine
[06:26] <Free-man> ok
[06:27] <Free-man> MrSmoke dont complicate your life.
[06:27] <Free-man> it already is
[06:27] <MrSmoke> but its what i do best :(
[06:27] <Free-man> heh
[06:27] <Free-man> ok
[06:28] <glebihan> MrSmoke, which lines exactly did you add ?
[06:28] <theadmin> Free-man: If you can't help you shouldn't do useless, somewhat offensive remarks. It's offtopic.
[06:28] <symaxian> command to see a packages installed location/files?
[06:28] <Free-man> i tried to help.
[06:28] <MrSmoke> mount -t proc proc /proc
[06:28] <MrSmoke> mount -t sysfs sys /sys
[06:28] <MrSmoke> those 2
[06:29] <symaxian> nvm
[06:29] <glebihan> MrSmoke, and now it doesn't boot ?
[06:29] <MrSmoke> yep
[06:29] <MrSmoke> its says its running, but using 2mb of ram lol
[06:29] <MrSmoke> cant ping either
[06:29] <MrSmoke> so id say its stuck in busybox or somewhere
[06:29] <theadmin> symaxian: dpkg -L packagename
[06:29] <Free-man> MrSmoke what is running?
[06:30] <MrSmoke> no idea, i cant connect to ssh
[06:30] <Free-man> MrSmoke as root, what does `pidof  dhcpcd' say?
[06:31] <MrSmoke> its a VPS, i cant get into console
[06:31] <Free-man> MrSmoke alt-ctrl-f1 doesnt work?
[06:31] <MrSmoke> in what?
[06:31] <glebihan> Free-man, he only has remote access
[06:32] <Free-man> from gui to console?
[06:32] <Free-man> glebihan k
[06:32] <Free-man> MrSmoke nm
[06:34] <Hemebond> So, Plymouth. Any way to fix it so it doesn't just hang while hiding any prompts and messages?
