[14:34] <cablop> jorgeu: sigh, why i never thaught about it before?
[14:35] <Lorthirk> Superstar: any IMAP client
[14:36] <IdleOne> Superstar: evolution can, installed by default in ubuntu
[14:37] <cablop> viliny ?
[14:37] <Superstar> Lorthirk, IdleOne: Gmail labels are NOT folders which is what these clients see it as
[14:38] <Xin> E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on mountall
[14:38] <Kev3124> Does anyone know when Beta 2 will be released today?
[14:38] <iceroot> Kev3124: #ubuntu+1
[14:38] <afeijo> hi guys
[14:38] <Lorthirk> Superstar: afaik (and for what i've tried), gmail labels are treated like imap folders.
[14:39] <afeijo> I just installed a virtualbox with ubuntu 11.04 beta 1, after I installed the vbox Guest Additions, and rebooted, it no longer load. The ubuntu logo screen shows and freeze with 5 red dots behind it
[14:39] <Xin> E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on mountall
[14:39] <Xin> Help?
[14:39] <ljsoftnet> how do i fix "Gnomenu could not be loaded"?
[14:40] <ljsoftnet> how do i fix "Gnomenu could not be loaded.  An internal error occured and the applet could not be loaded"?
[14:40] <bg16_in> Guys, I have a blocker with booting Ubuntu Natty
[14:41] <bg16_in> Should I go ahead?
[14:41] <karlo> how I can change the computer name? I tried to change "/etc/hosts" and "/etc/hostname" but nothing
[14:41] <snu> i am dual booting mac os and windows. I can't afford to partition my system, as it will lead to a mess. Can i install ubuntu using Wubi without affecting mac os and windows installations?
[14:41] <KNUBBIG> karlo sudo nano /etc/hostname helps certainly (after a reboot)
[14:41] <B-r00t> karlo: sudo gedit /etc/hostname
[14:42] <karlo> I did that but I didnt reboot, I need to?
[14:42] <KNUBBIG> karlo yes afaik
[14:42] <B-r00t> yes
[14:42] <karlo> ok, tnx
[14:42] <KNUBBIG> that was fast :D
[14:42] <B-r00t> :D
[14:42] <Guest87876> hi all
[14:42] <B-r00t> hi
[14:42] <Xin> E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on mountall
[14:42] <snu> i am dual booting mac os and windows. I can't afford to partition my system, as it will lead to a mess. Can i install ubuntu using Wubi without affecting mac os and windows installations?
[14:42] <afeijo> I just installed a virtualbox with ubuntu 11.04 beta 1, after I installed the vbox Guest Additions, and rebooted, it no longer load. The ubuntu logo screen shows and freeze with 5 red dots behind it
[14:42] <Guest87876> anyone know what time the beta 2 of 11.04 will be availabe
[14:42] <Xin> cant install using sudo apt-get
[14:43] <ljsoftnet> how do i fix "Gnomenu could not be loaded.  An internal error occured and the applet could not be loaded"?
[14:43] <Superstar> snu: when i installed wubi in windows, it installed into a folder, without creating any partitions
[14:43] <B-r00t> Guest87876: : final for 11 days
[14:43] <ych_> that is wubi
[14:44] <snu> i mean is it safe to tryout along with mac os boot?
[14:44] <rumpe1> snu, i wouldnt recommend wubi except for testing purposes ... why not shrink one of the partitons (e.g. a logical partition) and create in the free space a new partition?
[14:44] <Superstar> snu: never tried it on my mac sorry
[14:44] <snu> am not having a mac!! its a dell
[14:45] <ych_> you can use a livecd to try it out
[14:45] <snu> i had problems when i tried opensuse which created extra partitions
[14:45] <rumpe1> snu, changing your system is never completely "safe" ^^ ... always do backups
[14:46] <ljsoftnet> how do i fix "Gnomenu could not be loaded.  An internal error occured and the applet could not be loaded"?
[14:46] <Superstar> Does anyone use Google Chrome on Ubuntu 10.10?
[14:46] <Guest87876> @ B-r00t i am aware when the final release is out but beta 2 is due today i was wondering if there was a time set for when it would be availabel
[14:46] <soreau> ! anyone | Superstar
[14:46] <snu> i had 3 trials for getting mac n windows to work together. But i miss my linux :(
[14:47] <AdvoWork> can anyone recommend a wireless mouse/keyboard that works on Ubuntu. Can't find one specifically to work..
[14:47] <Superstar> !poll
[14:47] <Superstar> Elongated
[14:47] <soreau> AdvoWork: If its bluetooth, it will likely justwork
[14:48] <Superstar> MySpace music player doesn't load in Chrome on Ubuntu 10.10 but does on naty
[14:48] <snu> i believe wubi only creates a file in c: drive and a boot entry.. So it should be safe, right?
[14:49] <DaveIngram> frustrated question here: I have a backup script that does a mysqldump piped to gzip on a web server. It's a beefy 8-core processor and I have gzip niced to 19, but when gzip is running, apache stops responding and top says gzip is using 100% cpu. Anyone have any thoughts?
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> snu: correct
[14:49] <rumpe1> snu, least invasive would be a virtual machine... if you can live with the lower performance
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> snu: it will also be affected by fragmentation as the data is stored in NTFS
[14:50] <snu> ActionParsnip, thank u :) i think i should try it.. wish me luck
[14:50] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:50] <rumpe1> ActionParsnip, how that? ... dynamic size of the container?
[14:50] <ych_> i  only have it in my windows 7 . and i install it on D:
[14:50] <snu> rumpe1, i need full performance.. can't live with a vm
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> snu: its good as a quick try before youbuybut as a long term solution I recommend a true install
[14:51] <rumpe1> snu, for full performance you NEED a free partition
[14:51] <dannyd> hi all, what is the difference between the commands which and whereis?
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> snu: what version of windows are you running?
[14:51] <snu> i know that guys :) have been using linux for 3 years! but now i need wubi to install it beside my win n mac :(
[14:52] <rumpe1> dannyd, read "man which", "man whereis"
[14:52] <snu> ActionParsnip, win 7
[14:52] <rumpe1> snu, if you know this, why do you insist on full performance ? o.O
[14:52] <edbian> snu: wubi does not install besides.  It installs inside a windows partition
[14:52] <Guest87876> @snu, the installer will install alongside other OS
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> snu: win7 can resize its partitions to make space which you can then install ubuntu to
[14:52] <dhoine1> how i can use vlc with vdpau on ubu 10.04?
[14:53] <dannyd> rumpel: if the command is not in PATH, will whereis still give a listing?
[14:53] <snu> @all : but it will mess up my hackintosh install!
[14:53] <tnguyen> anyone here setup a bridge network for kvm/qemu ?
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> dannyd: whereis seems to give all the files, which shows the binary executed when you run the command
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> snu: not sure, we don't support illegal practises here
[14:53] <rumpe1> ActionParsnip, another idea would be an installation on an (external?) flash-stick/card
[14:53] <dhoine1> how i can use vlc with vdpau on ubu 10.04?
[14:53] <snu> me too.. i used an ORIGINAL MAC DVD
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> rumpe1: true, wouldn't get fragmented but usb is pretty slow
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> snu: I'd check the mac license
[14:54] <wolf__> how  i  can register in  xchat ?
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> snu: as long as you resize the ntfs partition you will leave free space which can then be used for Ubuntu, it won't touch anything else
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> wolf__: ask in #freenode
[14:54] <wolf__> thanks
[14:54] <nyuszika7h> wolf__: ask in #xchat
[14:55] <wolf__> #xchat
[14:55] <nyuszika7h> wolf__: / /msg NickServ HELP REGISTER
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> snu: and I can read lowercase too, so don't bother with caps next time
[14:55] <nyuszika7h> eh only one slash
[14:55] <LjL> !register | wolf__
[14:55] <Superstar> What are tty0 tty1 etc called?
[14:55] <snu> ActionParsnip, hmm.. i am afraid of partitioning ;) so i guess i'll stich with wubi
[14:56] <snu> *stick
[14:56] <rumpe1> SuperLag, teletyper (i guess) ... historical reasons
[14:56] <dhoine1> how i can use vlc with vdpau on ubu 10.04?
[14:56] <edbian> Superstar: They are also called terminals
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> snu: your choice, ntfs will directly affect performance
[14:57] <snu> but not as much as virtual machine
[14:57] <rahmat> bagaimana caranya
[14:57] <yuskhanzab> lol rahmat
[14:57] <rumpe1> snu, i don't recommend wubi because you will get even more wubi-specific bugs/problems...
[14:57] <snu> ActionParsnip, thank u
[14:57] <koffeehaus> hi, i tried ubuntu Netbook edition today, but the panel and the dash does not render properly as it appears as a transparent shade. does that mean i have a problem with graphics. will natty produce same results?
[14:57] <rumpe1> snu, virtual machines are the same trick... container with a filesystem in it.
[14:57] <snu> rumpe1, hmm.. i guess i should live with it then, thanks
[14:58] <snu> but vm run on top of jost os right?
[14:58] <snu> *hosy
[14:58] <Guest87876> @snu, why are you affraid to add a new partition
[14:58] <rumpe1> snu, yes
[14:58] <Bruce_Wayne> Superstar: You might want to read this: http://bit.ly/i16R2i
[14:58] <rumpe1> snu, if you are afraid and don't do regular backups then perhaps you shouldnt try anything ^^
[14:58] <Superstar> edbian,rumpel : thank you
[14:59] <snu> rumpe1, ha ha.. i had already had a dozen trials, not with ubuntu though, with opensuse
[15:00] <AdvoWork> soreau, so bluetooth rather than wifi?
[15:00] <Bruce_Wayne> has anyone been successful to integrate GUI tools like "zenity" with cron?
[15:00] <rahmat> hi
[15:01] <rahmat> yes no
[15:01] <laurus> For a 64-bit Atom chip, which is recommended: 32-bit or 64-bit? My primary concern is battery life.
[15:01] <pcpower> anyone have a nokia smartphone? mine is locked up solid and keeps ringing constantly, and battery is not removable :( help!
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> laurus: that won't affect battery life
[15:02] <Pici> !ot | pcpower
[15:02] <edbian> laurus: 64 bit vs 32 bit won't make a difference for battery life.  64 bit allows you to use more than 3.2 Gb of ram and it is a little faster
[15:02] <laurus> ActionParsnip, really, alright.
[15:02] <pcpower> gee thanks for being an asshole when I really need help
[15:03] <MagicJ> I have a nunber of machines - when I hit ctrl-alt-t it opens a shell session as I want.  In ONE of them for some reason it opens it using sh not bash eve though bash is what is in the etc/passwd file - if I do an su to the user it opens bash - where is this mis-configured
[15:03] <lder> is there a clean way to add a cdrom manually to sources.list?  apt-cdrom is not working for me, so i'm looking for a workaround
[15:04] <laurus> Thanks ActionParsnip.
[15:04] <edbian> lder: System -> Admin -> Software sources.  It's in there :)
[15:04] <afeijo> how can I install the last firefox in my ubuntu 10.10? apt-get install a beta version :(
[15:04] <Superstar> Has anyone installed PiaF on Ubuntu?
[15:04] <edbian> !!ff4
[15:04] <edbian> afeijo:  ^^^
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> pcpower: this is ubuntu support. The ONLY subject in this channel is ubuntu support
[15:05] <rahmat> apa kabrnya
[15:05] <afeijo> thanks
[15:05] <napnap> Hi all
[15:05] <pcpower> ActionParsnip: well who else can help me then
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> pcpower: there are thousands of chanels on this server, try one of those
[15:05] <lder> edbian: i'm running server via an lxc container
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> pcpower: check the channel list and try one of those, you could maybe try in ##hardware
[15:05] <edbian> lder: I have no idea what that means.  Are you CLI only?
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: what is piaf?
[15:06] <Superstar> ActionParsnip: PBX in a Flash
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: if you stick to defacto standards for abbreviations rather than abbreviating random stuff it speeds stuff up ;)
[15:07] <lder> edbian: yes
[15:07] <soreau> AdvoWork: I may be completely wrong
[15:07] <lder> edbian: cli
[15:08] <edbian> lder: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list   it's the first line and it's commented
[15:08] <kinect27> can i ask a question here
[15:08] <napnap> I've made a copy of in 3To hard disk to another with dd_rescue, but the end of the first drive isn't copied because I haven't enough space on the second drive (due to file system space), I can copy the end of the disk on other device, my question can I make a virtual file compoud of two files on different device ?
[15:08] <BluesKaj> kinect27, ask away
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: there is a centos files, you MAY get an install by converting them
[15:09] <bounder> oh well another day done and dusted
[15:09] <kinect27> i got a dell mini10v, 2 years ago from my aunt, upgraded it to the netbook remix last year, im having this weird trackpack issues, screen flickers, cant use the scroll down button, the menu buttons disappeared, but if i log out, and use gnome or the 2d edition, trackpad works
[15:09] <cycnuc> quit
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> !info asterisk
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: ca=onsidered asterisk/
[15:10] <Superstar> ActionParsnip: yes sorry. they have an experimental build, just wanted to know if someone has tried it
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: *considered
[15:10] <kinect27> so anyways i downloaded the new netbook version in my netbook,wanted to create a startup disk but it doesnt make 1, so i copied the iso, here in my windows xp
[15:11] <ych_> quit
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> kinect27: use unetbootin or the 1 2 3 app from pendrivelinux, be sure you MD5 test the ISO before you use it
[15:11] <Superstar> ActionParsnip: that's too advanced for me. pbx in a flash gives me the gui and extras without needing much technical experience with linux
[15:11] <kinect27> im using the universal usb installer , im here in winxp now?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: theres a live ISO too, may help
[15:11] <kinect27> is this good? its based on the ubuntu site
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> kinect27: thats fine too
[15:12] <Superstar> ActionParsnip: thanks I'll try that
[15:12] <kinect27> ok, so now il selecting the ubutnu 10.10 netbook remix, it says found and selected, im reformatting my usb, then
[15:13] <kinect27> can not open file d:netbooki386.iso is an archive,  idont get it?
[15:14] <kinect27> was my download correct or i need to restart downloading it again?
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> kinect27: did you MD5 test the ISO?
[15:14] <michael__> why does my stellarium not work right ?
[15:15] <Papercuts> test]
[15:15] <Papercuts> :)
[15:15] <kinect27> hold on lemme check it in my netbook
[15:15] <Superstar> Is ubuntu geared for domestic users or is it aiming to be one day?
[15:15] <van7hu> hello, Does ubuntu use eglibc (http://www.eglibc.org/home), or I am wrong?
[15:15] <jrib> Superstar: what?
[15:16] <ayecee> van7hu: nope, just the regular gnu glibc
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: its aimed at new users to linux. Depends how you understand "domestic user"?
[15:16] <van7hu> ayecee: are you sure?
[15:16] <ayecee> van7hu: yes
[15:17] <Superstar> jrib, actionparsnip: a domestic user would be the equivalent of the average joe in Windows - checks his mail, few google searches, facebook, instant messaging?
[15:17] <middle> I am having an issue trying to use wget to download a txt file form a ftp server. The txt file is stored at middle.freeiz.com/gny.txt but if i wget that file i jsut get a 404 error, where might i be going wrong?
[15:18] <van7hu> ayecee: how can I check my own version?
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: yes, thats the aim of the OS
[15:18] <MagicJ> ctrl-alt-t is calling sh not bash - how do I set it
[15:18] <jrib> Superstar: I'd say ubuntu desktop is geared toward those users out of the box, sure
[15:18] <van7hu> ayecee: http://img219.imageshack.us/i/glibc.png/, here's my way
[15:18] <kinect27> making a startupdisk, copyring files buts its only 94 percent complete?
[15:18] <kinect27> any1?
[15:19] <Superstar> actionparsnip, jrib. thanks, i class myself as a domestic user
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> kinect27: did you MD5 test the iSO you downloaded
[15:20] <kinect27> it says checksums do not match, retry? if i retry its thesame, 94 percent/
[15:20] <kinect27> ok hold on lemme do that test
[15:20] <mcb_1> middle: This ftp asks for user and password, are you supplaing those?
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> kinect27: why didin't you test it first...?
[15:20] <ayecee> van7hu: checking
[15:21] <spacebug-> beta2 is to come today right?
[15:21] <middle> mcb_1: Thats what i thought, howeveri can download other items such as bg.gif
[15:21] <asdf47> hello, i have a webcam *logitech C510* but on skype and cheese it doesn't works.Skype see the webcam but i can't make a video call.On guvcview it works fine....Any help?
[15:21] <ayecee> van7hu: I stand corrected. despite being sure, it appears that i was wrong.
[15:21] <Pici> spacebug-: Yes, feel free to await it in #ubuntu+1
[15:21] <ayecee> van7hu: it looks like ubuntu, at least 10.04, uses eglibc.
[15:22] <spacebug-> Pici: ok tnx
[15:22] <mcb_1> well, error 404 is page not found. Are you sure the file is there, can you see it using a browser? Using another machine?
[15:23] <ayecee> van7hu: I'm going by what's shown by "apt-cache show libc6"
[15:23] <mcb_1> middle: You can also use teh ftp command, instead of wget. And well,  error 404 is page not found. Are you sure the file is there, can you see it using a browser? Using another machine?
[15:23] <middle> mcb_1: I can't see it inthe browser, but i thought you could just wget a txt file from the itnernet
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> asdf47: try:    LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
[15:23] <mcb_1> middle: you can, but the file must be there in the first palce. LOL....
[15:24] <Superstar> How often does Ubuntu perform an `updatedb` ? I find that I have to manually do this to locate files less than 1 hour old
[15:24] <asdf47> ok ActionParsnip
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: depends on the amount of files
[15:24] <middle> mcb_1: I will double check but i am very sure it is there
[15:24] <LjL> Superstar: once again i thought
[15:24] <dec3pti0n> can anyone help me with getting ubuntu 10.04 to show me the grub2 menu ? I have set the timeouts in the /etc/defaults/grub ... I have a feeling that the fonts are somehow set to black with a black bg !

[15:25] <ActionParsnip> asdf47: ok run:  dpkg -S v4l1compat.so    and install the package it contains, then retrt
[15:25] <dec3pti0n> I didn't

[15:25] <ActionParsnip> dec3pti0n: hold shift at boot to show grub
[15:25] <dec3pti0n> ActionParsnip: yeah I've done that
[15:26] <middle> mcb_1: Yeah i click open on the file from my ftp and it opens up http://middle.freeiz.com/gny.txt, ther eis nothing on the webpage but there shouldn't be shoudl there... so its deffinetly there...

[15:26] <KNUBBIG> dec3pti0n try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Splash%20Images%20&%20Theming

[15:30] <mcb_1>            Specify the username user and password password for both FTP and

[15:31] <Rafeiro> hi
[15:31] <kinect27> actionparship, what should i do?
[15:32] <ankush> Is there a development platform like VB in ubuntu?
[15:32] <Rafeiro> i have a sda7 which is the / mount point, and i have a partition next to it empty  (sda8) which id like to extended this one into, how can o do that?
[15:32] <van7hu> ayecee: sorry, my Internet, What I am confusing here is does egllibc here stand for embedded ... (the link I gave you or what other than that)
[15:32] <van7hu> ayecee: http://www.eglibc.org/home
[15:32] <tsimpson> ankush: several
[15:33] <kinect27> ran the md5 test, but i still cant copy the files to the usb using the startupdisk creator
[15:33] <ankush> I want to use visual basic as the programming language
[15:33] <Guest48929> can someone help me fix my vlc and movieplayer? both have sound but just a black screen
[15:33] <ankush> For developing ubuntu applications
[15:33] <ayecee> van7hu: yes, that's what it stands for, though it need not be used exclusively in embedded systems.
[15:34] <van7hu> sorry, I'll back soon (change host)
[15:34] <brightspark> Guest48929, do you have all the codecs you need?
[15:35] <BluesKaj> Rafeiro, are you installing or partitioning during aninstall?
[15:35] <Guest48929> codecs. i believe. i downloaded all of them of ubuntu softwear center
[15:35] <itilious> anyone here installed ubuntu to flash drive making it a portable os? i did but i can't seem to edit the boot parameters
[15:35] <Superstar> Where are the certificates that come with Ubuntu installed to?
[15:35] <Superstar> The SSL certificates, root ca, etc
[15:36] <itilious> i know i need to press "esc" at grub but it doesnt seem to want to work for a flash drive installation, anyone know why?
[15:36] <Rafeiro> BluesKaj, i have installed it already on sda7
[15:36] <kinect27> ran the md5 test, and it still cant copy files to my usb, i cant use the startup disk creator , any options here
[15:36] <asdf47> hello, i have a webcam *logitech C510* but on skype and cheese it doesn't works.Skype see the webcam but i can't make a video call.On guvcview it works fine....Any help?
[15:36] <Rafeiro> which im using it right now
[15:37] <jrib> Superstar: dpkg -L ca-certificates
[15:37] <itilious> i edited /etc/default/grub to add "i915.modeset=1" but it still wont boot.. any ideas?
[15:37] <tsimpson> ankush: have a look at monodevelop for VB.NET
[15:37] <Superstar> jrib: thanks love
[15:37] <brightspark> Guest48929, are you playing a dvd?
[15:37] <Pici> Superstar: Or search for that package on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[15:37] <soreau> itilious: modesetting is enabled by default
[15:38] <itilious> soreau, i have a laptop that requires "i915.modeset=1" to boot, but when i try to boot with flash drive it doesnt set the mode correctly
[15:38] <afeijo> !!ff4
[15:38] <afeijo> that firefox is a nighly 6.0a1, not compatible with firebug :( damn
[15:39] <itilious> it only boots if i have that set on this particular laptop,, i can't figure out why it wont work for flash drive installation of ubuntu, how come?
[15:39] <Guest64795> I am using irc through irssi, its nice :)
[15:39] <Guest64795> I love ubuntu
[15:40]  * brdoco has a (probably really basic) question
[15:40] <itilious> soreau, what did you mean by its set by default?
[15:40] <Pici> !ask | brdoco
[15:40] <soreau> itilious: I mean the default is already i915.modeset=1
[15:41] <kinect27> whats next if u did the dm5 test and the startup disk creator still doesnt work, its only at 94 percent completion?
[15:41] <BluesKaj> Rafeiro, I suggest you burn a livecd called gparted and use it as a partitioning tool . It's very handy. You can use gparted to delete sda8 which then becomes unallocated . , then you can choose sda7 and resize into the unallocated space that used to be sda8
[15:41] <itilious> soreau, then why is that not in /etc/default/grub after "quiet splash" ?
[15:41] <soreau> itilious: Because it is the default :)
[15:41] <itilious> i've never seen it defaulted to this, i have always had to manually add it to make it boot
[15:41] <brdoco> I'm trying to install the sun jdk 6.  I want to install it into a certain directory.  can I do that with the ubuntu software center?
[15:41] <itilious> soreau, i'm the n00b here but youre wrong, its not there by default
[15:42] <Rafeiro> im using gparted
[15:42] <Rafeiro> i deleted it
[15:42] <soreau> itilious: That is strange if you have to manually enable it on recent versions of ubuntu
[15:42] <itilious> soreau, i've ALWAYS had to manually add it to get this to boot
[15:42] <brightspark> How do I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[15:42] <Rafeiro> now i want to know how can i resize it since im using sda7 already
[15:42] <Rafeiro> i want to know how can i resize it into the sda8
[15:42] <itilious> soreau, i'm using ubuntu 10.04
[15:42] <soreau> itilious: I have no idea why you would have to enable modesetting manually to make it work then
[15:43] <BluesKaj> Rafeiro, you can't resize a partition that you are using ..it has to be done from a separate device
[15:43] <itilious> soreau, its an older laptop
[15:43] <kinect27> what do u mean by checksums dont match
[15:43] <soreau> itilious: Are you sure its an i9xx intel chip?
[15:43] <itilious> soreau, yes
[15:43] <ubuntu_> i have 945GM intel
[15:43] <Rafeiro> ok, so, i can use the ubuntu livecd to do it?
[15:44] <ubuntu_> what you wont do ?
[15:44] <BluesKaj> !who |Rafeiro
[15:44] <soreau> itilious: strange. Maybe something disables KMS on some chips
[15:44] <Rafeiro> ok
[15:44] <itilious> still doesnt answer the question why i can't edit the boot parameters at GRUB with a flash drive
[15:45] <Symmetria> whats teh command to change the amount of "reserved" space in a file system and whats the default percentage?
[15:45] <DirtyDawg> does anyone know about installing FireFox 4? what i mean is, in windows when you install it, it gives you a new FF4 folder which i know it doesnt do in Ubuntu, but does it keep all the bookmarks and extensions or give you a clean FF4 which is totally blank of stuff?
[15:45] <BluesKaj> Rafeiro, yes you can but the gparted livecd is easier and more flexible , but that's your call
[15:45] <Rafeiro> alright
[15:45] <Rafeiro> :)
[15:45] <Symmetria> anyone know off hand?
[15:45] <Rafeiro> tks BluesKaj
[15:45] <dannyd> Rafeiro: yes it should be in administration, check if the partition is mounted before you try..
[15:45] <soreau> itilious: Did you check the md5sum for the image you put on the flash drive?
[15:45] <BluesKaj> Rafeiro, np
[15:45] <itilious> soreau, yes and yes it matched
[15:45] <Rafeiro> alright dannyd :)
[15:46] <itilious> i also did filesystem check on the flash drive i installed ubuntu to
[15:46] <ubuntu_> its possible to run google earth on intel 945GM in ubuntu 10.10??

[15:48] <ubuntu_> its show google earth first screen then turn off
[15:48] <Xylch> DirtyDawg: try #firefox
[15:48] <DirtyDawg> k thx
[15:48] <soreau> ubuntu_: Its probably crashing in the driver
[15:48] <kinect27> is it a good idea, to extract the iso in the downloads folder, copy the entire folder ot the usb? any1?
[15:48] <soreau> ubuntu_: You can try updating the intel driver stack by installing xorg-edgers repo, to see if it helps
[15:49] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, install lsb-core then reinstall google earth
[15:49] <ubuntu_> soreau its possible to run it ?
[15:49] <soreau> ubuntu_: I dont know, but I would try upgrading the driver
[15:49] <ubuntu_> drive dont upgrade in normal upgrade  ?

[16:08] <CrunchyChewie> anyone have any experience with pigz?
[16:09] <twelvth> this is probably a silly question, but in reading http://www.ubuntugeek.com/list-of-ubuntu-unity-keyboard-shortcuts.html , what exactly is the 'super' key?
[16:09] <CrunchyChewie> twelvth: windows key usually
[16:09] <edbian> twelvth, windows key
[16:09] <mymeatinyourseat> elizabeth byshenk
[16:09] <twelvth> cool, thanks :)
[16:09] <oCean> "windows key" is such a sad word
[16:09] <oCean> nvm
[16:10] <CrunchyChewie> lol
[16:10] <CrunchyChewie> Does anyone use Pigz instead of gzip?
[16:11] <nhoc_t39> CrunchyChewie: noone :)
[16:12] <charnel> I am sure I am not the first one seeing it but the ubuntu page is offline
[16:12] <codex84> how you upgrade to firefox 4
[16:12] <codex84> ?
[16:12] <CrunchyChewie> nhoc_t39: I guess not, trying to speed up gzip with parallel processing but it is acting weird
[16:12] <edbian> !!ff4 | codex
[16:13] <charnel> phew came online and I did not know that they were using Drupal

[16:13] <mattgman> is gnome3 available for 10.10 or is that only 11.04?

[16:14] <CrunchyChewie> Blueskaj: sorry lol found it, mistyped
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: if the open driver can do the same resolution then yes
[16:15] <CrunchyChewie> BLueskaj: I am more interested in faster compression though, pigz is a parallel implementation of gzip
[16:15] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: It detected my resolution when I installed Ubuntu.
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> mattgman: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/11/install-vanilla-gnome-3-in-maverick/
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: then you answered your own question ;)
[16:16] <BluesKaj> CrunchyChewie, I don't do much compression , mostly decompression therefore unp fits my needs
[16:16] <nyuszika7h> I think I'll remove it, because I mostly use Ubuntu for programming and chatting -- that doesn't require fancy effects.
[16:16] <mattgman> ActionParsnip, thanks!
[16:16]  * ActionParsnip loves unp
[16:16] <ikonia> mattgman: I would be very cautious of omgubuntu.co.uk guides

[16:20] <dreki> i need an application that can compress/decompress most file types and can have very good compression ratio, also a GUI would be nice. any recommendations?
[16:21] <ecolitan> is it better then to use truecrypt where I'll know what i'm getting?
[16:21] <ecolitan> dreki: gzip
[16:21] <LjL> gzip doesn't have a good compression ratio... can only compress/decompress gzip... and has no GUI :P
[16:22] <nyuszika7h> Oh, and it's 'propietary', not 'propertiary' :P
[16:22] <sipior> dreki: file-roller will most likely have what you want.
[16:22] <MagicJ> how do I tell the file browser not to show the hidden directories, that is those starting with a . ?

[16:22] <nhoc_t39> hello

[16:24] <nhoc_t39> how to install media player in UBUNTU?
[16:25] <nyuszika7h> MagicJ: Open nautilus, go to Edit -> Preferences, uncheck "Show hidden and backup files" and click Close.
[16:25] <nyuszika7h> nhoc_t39: If you're talking about Windows Media Player, you can't install that unless you use an emulator like Wine. But there are better choices. Install a player like VLC.
[16:25] <MagicJ> thank you nyuszika7h: that's wha I wanted.   Most IRC clients support autocompletion, just press Tab. ;)

[16:28] <Callum__> Okay guys, help me
[16:29] <Callum__> My GNOME panel is fucked up here, and I want to save a REALLY important Audacity project but it won't let me because the gnome-panel is frozen up (but a couple of the applets still work)
[16:29] <IdleOne> Callum__: please mind your language
[16:30] <Callum__> IdleOne: Oops, sorry
[16:30] <Callum__> It's 3:30am, and I've been working on this for hours and I kinda need this to work
[16:30] <IdleOne> I hear ya, don't know how to help you though :/
[16:31] <Stormshadow> hello all
[16:31] <necromancer> how do i set up ssh hooks, so that when i log into my ubuntu server it automatically runs `cd /var/www`?
[16:31] <Callum__> Hmmm, last time I killed gnome-panel the whole system just went kaput
[16:31] <inquiryqueue> Callum__ : What "whole system" do you mean? The applications you were running?
[16:31] <inquiryqueue> Callum__: If you kill gnome-panel, it usually restarts in a few seconds.
[16:32] <Stormshadow> ive got a question regarding xmessage; couldnt find any help so i thought id ask over here - how can i launch an xserver with a different pointer icon (that is to say, using something other than the ugly X pointer)?
[16:33] <mattgman> i wouldn't recommend installing gnome3...hahahaha...my computer became...inoperable
[16:33] <BlouBlou> mattgman: That's because it's a beta
[16:33] <mattgman> yeah, but it looks good
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> mattgman: debateable :)
[16:35] <snarkster> hi guys I need some help. I just finished installing 10.10 on a gateway laptop model MX6421 live cd worked great (except wifi) now it wont boot at all, not even from the cd.  it does flash the ubuntu loading screen for a sec then just black screen with cursor at top left corner
[16:36] <mattgman> well, if there were more customizations... but imo it looks good and i will definitely be using it
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> lxde looks great here :D

[16:42] <alanonymous> anyone know how to update to wine1.3?  I added ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa but it's still only finding 1.2.
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> alanonymous: wine ppa has 1.3
[16:42] <ActionParsnip> alanonymous: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa
[16:43] <siavashserver> Hi, I'm collecting information about Linux Gamers and their hardwares, if you are interested please take a look at this poll > http://www.misterpoll.com/polls/521555 . Thanks for your time.
[16:43] <alanonymous> I added the ppa already but still only list v1.2 in the software tool
[16:43] <otong> hai
[16:45] <alanonymous> I just did it command line and seems to work (sudo apt-get wine1.3), but why does the software tool not see the package then?
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> alanonymous: remove the wine you have and install wine1.3
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> alanonymous: its a separate package
[16:46] <alanonymous> so if I just installed wine1.3 over 1.2 without uninstalling, I probably did something bad?
[16:46] <tomreyn> siavashserver: it would probably help your cause to provide a command which would help users identify (by means of querying the current kernel) which CPU features their system supports.
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> alanonymous: i'd remove 1.2 first to avoid conflicts
[16:46] <asdf47> My logitech C510 webcam doesn't work with skype and cheese, but it works fine on guvcview, what have i to do? any help?
[16:47] <siavashserver> tomreyn, thanks for feedback. Unfortunately it isn't supported by poll provider i think.
[16:48] <alanonymous> on a side note, wine1.3 fixed my problem with rosetta stone :)  thanks.
[16:48] <tomreyn> siavashserver: well you could just add it to the end of the "Supported SIMD extensions" question
[16:49] <tomreyn> siavashserver: and "Video card manufacturer" is missing an 'other' option

[16:49] <hvgotcodes> does tar have a --transform option?  I cannot find it in any documentation, but Im trying to get  a script that tries to use that option to work
[16:49] <kaushal> Hi
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> !manual | trik
[16:49] <kaushal>  I have around 100 hosts running sun java6 u20, is there a easy way to upgrade it to u24 ?
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> hvgotcodes: run:   man tar
[16:50] <hvgotcodes> ActionParsnip: yeah i just saw that
[16:50] <siavashserver> tomreyn, thanks, going to perform the changes. would you mind helping on that command?
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: run a local repository on your server and have the relevant debs for the new java
[16:50] <hvgotcodes> shoot osx's version of tar does not have that option
[16:50] <kaushal> I mean some script ?
[16:50] <trik> I need a site to reference different commands.
[16:50] <EyePulp> howdy - if I'm using ssh with public keys to connect to an ubuntu box, is there a way to determine, once connected, what the value is of the public key I came in under?
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: you can write one easily
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> trik: you can run:   man <command her>     and see the man pages of each. E.g:   man cp
[16:52] <Pici> trik: http://manpages.ubuntu.com
[16:53] <tomreyn> siavashserver: you probably want to grep something out of /proc/cpuinfo, but i'm not into the details of this.
[16:53] <siavashserver> tomreyn, no problem, thanks!

So I set synclient PalmDetect and PalmMinZ via command line, but the settings do not persist when I reboot.  Can anyone tell me how to make them persistant.  Everything I find via google says to use xorg.conf, but I thought ubuntu doenst use xorg.conf anymore?
[16:56] <ikonia> symptom: you have to make an xorg.conf - it will use it
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> asdf47: sup

[16:56] <nhoc_t39> how do install Office for Ubuntu
[16:56] <ikonia> symptom: only put in the options you want to use, let it detect the rest
[16:56] <symptom> ikonia, will it override everything that flgrx does?
[16:56] <ikonia> nhoc_t39: it's already installed
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> nhoc_t39: its in the default install
[16:56] <ikonia> symptom: no, if you have flgrx you probably already have an xorg.conf

[16:58] <MasterBob> Hello. Is there a good guide for dual-booting windows from a default ubuntu installation?
[16:58] <asdf47> ActionParsnip:  yes :P
[16:58] <nyuszika7h> Hi, the login sound seems to echo, no matter how many times I restart ubuntu. Any ideas why?
[16:58] <edbian> MasterBob, Just install it :)
[16:58] <nyuszika7h> It echoes only 2-3 times, but it's still annoying.
[16:59] <TechnoPirate> As long as you have a good way to partition your system, it shouldnt be too hard
[16:59] <MasterBob> edbian,  i already have ubuntu.
[16:59] <MasterBob> need to isntall windows
[16:59] <edbian> MasterBob, Ohh, that's harder
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> asdf47: i don't know anything else, like I said. Maybe others can help
[16:59] <nyuszika7h> MasterBob: I suggest you to update your xchat... it's VERY old...
[16:59] <TechnoPirate> The windows installer has a tool to partition your drive
[16:59] <asdf47> thank you ActionParsnip  :)
[17:00] <MasterBob> nyuszika7h, um, it's whatever latest xchat-gnome is
[17:00] <MasterBob> talk to those maintainers
[17:01] <mymeatinyourseat> my xchat is 2.8.8. is that the latest??
[17:01] <BlouBlou> mymeatinyourseat: I don't know, check the xchat web

[17:01] <symptom> Hello I have a corei7 system and i installed the 64bit ubuntu 10.10, but when I do a uname -m it shows i686 and not amd64
[17:01] <MasterBob> nyuszika7h, yeah
[17:01] <symptom> is this correct?
[17:01] <BlouBlou> symptom: Yes, that's the architecture
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> symptom: you installed 32bit Ubuntu
[17:02] <mymeatinyourseat> AppleSuckz, doesn't apple's imac use linnux??
[17:02] <symptom> ActionParsnip, are you sure?
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> mymeatinyourseat: no it will use apple OS
[17:02] <ActionParsnip> symptom: yes, you can install 32bit iS on 64bit CPU
[17:02] <AppleSuckz> Question, anyone konw of a DNS monitoring program for linux that logs all the DNS look ups it does and have a way to pull it up via website?
[17:03] <AppleSuckz> apple uses unix doesn it?
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> symptom: you have to download 64bit ubuntu if you want 64bit ubuntu
[17:03] <ikonia> AppleSuckz: depends what you want to monitor
[17:03] <mymeatinyourseat> AppleSuckz, so u saying apple sucks is just like saying linnux sucks. so, doesn't that deserve a boot
[17:03] <ikonia> AppleSuckz: bsd
[17:03] <iceroot> how to check in a running system if /home is encrypted? i dont see any infos with "mount" and "fdisk -l" but there is a crypt-daemon running on the system
[17:03] <symptom> ActionParsnip, I thought I did.  What is the uname -m for 64bit?
[17:03] <AppleSuckz> Apple sucks for being so controllive and way overpriced
[17:03] <mymeatinyourseat> AppleSuckz, unnix is linnux
[17:03] <ikonia> AppleSuckz: ok - we are not interested in that, just ubuntu support here
[17:04] <AppleSuckz> I didnt bring that up ikonia
[17:04] <swatto> Hello All, my startup applications are still not running at boot and its getting quite annoying now :( any ideas what it could be?
[17:04] <AppleSuckz> someone else did
[17:04] <ikonia> AppleSuckz: I know, I'm just telling you lets focus on the ubuntu stuff
[17:04] <iceroot> !boot | swatto
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> symptom: uname -m   will display the ubuntu arch, there isn't a seperate command for 64bit
[17:04] <mymeatinyourseat> ikonia, sounds like sonja or sonya.. r u a girl??
[17:05] <ikonia> mymeatinyourseat: that doesn't matter, just ubuntu support in here please
[17:05] <symptom> ActionParsnip, What will uname -m show if I have the ubuntu 64bit arch installed?
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> symptom: x86_64
[17:05] <edbian> symptom, amd64  or x86_64
[17:05] <iceroot> symptom: uname is just showing the arch of the kernel, not of the whole system
[17:06] <mymeatinyourseat> ikonia, thanks for your help on the sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop" earlier
[17:06] <Stormshadow> how can i change the default X cursor?
[17:06] <symptom> ok so I do have 32bit installed.  Is there any disadvantage to going 64bit?
[17:06] <iceroot> symptom: dpkg --print-architecture will show the architecture of the rest of the system
[17:06] <edbian> symptom, no
[17:06] <Tim10> 64 bit is like autos

[17:06] <Tim10> autobahn
[17:06] <ActionParsnip> Stormshadow: right click desktop -> change background. Theme tab -> customize then change pointer there
[17:07] <sipior> symptom: somewhat larger program memory use, possible increase in cache misses for the same reason. the advantages vastly outweigh the disadvantages on modern systems.
[17:07] <Stormshadow> if i dont have a window manager?
[17:07] <swatto> iceroot: thankyou, will give it a go, see if it fixes my issues - atm things only run at startup when i symlink to them in autorun, i cant use the startup applications GUI.  Trouble with this is I cant add CLI arguements to the apps
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> symptom: 64bit can reference more RAM
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> Stormshadow: then start one
[17:08] <Stormshadow> :) i mean, i only have an X session, and want to change the X cursor to a pointer -- is this possible?

[17:12] <iceroot> SoftDroid: can you post your /etc/fstab ?

[17:22] <semitones> for ubuntu startup disk creator, is the "reserved extra space" used for installing programs? Or do installed programs go somewhere else?

[17:24] <SoftDroid> Its same problem
[17:24] <FlameTai1> Quick question, which should I get Linux RPM or just the Linux package for Java?
[17:24] <arand_> semitones: If you create a persistent liveUSB I would assume it is the name for extra space which may be used for installing things, storing data, or whatever else you would do on the filesystem of a normal ubuntu installation
[17:24] <Pici> FlameTai1: Neither. You should install java from the repositories.
[17:24] <Pici> !java | FlameTai1
[17:25] <FlameTai1> Ty Pici
[17:25] <semitones> arand_, because I made a liveUSB and chose the max reserved space, but then I got an error of "0 bytes left in file system" after running an update

[17:30] <BluesKaj> mymeatinyourseat, sorry I was called away for a min , desktop/administration
[17:31] <arand_> semitones: If there a filesystem whoose size corresponds to the reserved space
[17:31] <semitones> arand, yeah maybe there is, I don't know what it would be called though
[17:31] <mymeatinyourseat> ubuntu_, I think I either held "shift" durring system boot or since I uninstalled everything "gnome", my comp couldn't get back to the desktop, so, I'm guessing it just went to the "text linnux" mode instead
 anyone seeing this text?  I'm getting messages that look like your not :(

[17:36] <mymeatinyourseat> blueis it the same as the "terminal"??
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> Proxypoke: ok if you run:  sudo nvidia-xconfig    then reboot, does it help?

[17:41] <BluesKaj> mymeatinyourseat, just surf the panel for administration , I.m aure you'll find it
[17:42] <SSraall> because shit gnom 3 broke my pc:D
[17:42] <SSraall>
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> SSraall: if you want stable use maverick,if you want to log bugs to make natty better when released, use natty but natty is not stable and not ready
[17:42] <Pici> SSraall: PPAs are always a risk.  Please also mind your language here.
[17:42] <BlouBlou> SSraall: then install 10.04 LTS
[17:42] <SSraall> ok
[17:43] <joegutting> is anyone familier with the errors I am seeing?
[17:43] <Proxypoke> apt-get is unable to find nvidia-kernel-source, shouldn't that be in the Ubuntu repositories? ._.

[17:46] <Proxypoke> oh, ok, I seem to be missing the non-free archives in my sources.list
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> mrmcan: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode, select root with networking and install it
[17:46] <BigUrsis> Anyone have a link to more information on how usb changed from 10.04 -> 10.10 (suffering the dreaded usb permissions problem and do not want to run the program requesting usb access as root)
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> mrmcan: you can just as easily log in at CLI and run: startx   then install it as you expect
[17:47] <mrmcan> ok i will try it going reboot thanks
[17:47] <shift_> hello i have one question
[17:47] <KNUBBIG> !help shift_
[17:47] <KNUBBIG> !help | shift_
[17:48] <KNUBBIG> funny how I never get it :D
[17:48] <shift_> !help
[17:48] <shift_> !help | shift_
[17:48] <KNUBBIG> :D
[17:48] <KNUBBIG> just ask the question, shift_
[17:49] <codex84> how u get mirc on ubuntu
[17:49] <KNUBBIG> codex84 you're here? Else, you could use clients as xchat or irssi on command line
[17:49] <shift_> how i can save my channel in memory of xchat?
[17:50] <MaRk-I> codex84: there's no mirc for ubuntu, you can install xchat, gnome-xchat, or irssi if you like terminal based
[17:50] <codex84> i dont really like this client
[17:50] <codex84> or xchat lol
[17:50] <DreamsofanEagle> guess what guys
[17:50] <KNUBBIG> codex84 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Internet_Relay_Chat_clients
[17:50] <DreamsofanEagle> even with lower case letters, it STILL won't let me go forward
[17:50] <KNUBBIG> maybe you like one of these :)
[17:50] <DreamsofanEagle> HELP
[17:50] <DreamsofanEagle> I've tried everything I can think of
[17:51] <ivancp> !ask | DreamsofanEagle
[17:51] <DreamsofanEagle> this goes for Natty and Maverick
[17:51] <Mayez> irc.anonops.ru
[17:51] <KNUBBIG> DreamsofanEagle what's your problem, exactly?
[17:51] <BlouBlou> DreamsofanEagle: Ask it in one line if possible please
[17:51] <DreamsofanEagle> ok
[17:51] <P05TMAN> Sorry lost Internet connection...To set up my own email server, do I have to use a service like Slice?
[17:51] <Eighteens> my kern.log has the following lines, is this a bad thing? "Apr 14 09:43:31 ubuntudesktop kernel: [ 7612.664776] [UFW BLOCK] IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:14:2a:c9:c9:39:00:22:3f:c6:68:f5:08:00 SRC=<IP_ADDRESS>"
[17:52] <Eighteens> does that mean that Ubuntu firewall blocked a request from that 222. ip
[17:52] <Sage182> hi, im new at this. i have ubuntu on 2 computers and windows on another. my grandson came over with his windows computer, now i have something sending out data from my linux machines to a remote server. can anyone help me?
[17:52] <BlouBlou> Eighteens: it blocked an outgoing connection to that IP, yes
[17:53] <Eighteens> BlouBlou: thank you, should i add a deny rule to the firewall
[17:53] <Sage182> his computer populated itself in the network
[17:53] <DreamsofanEagle> I tried to redo my partitions and set it up so Natty and Maverick each has 10GB with 200+GB going for the /home partition, after I reinstalled 10.10 it refuses to boot saying "file not found" in grub, and any subsequent installs will not allow to progress any further than the "who are you screen", even when the letters are lower case
[17:53] <DreamsofanEagle> did it cut off?
[17:53] <Sage182> while no lan was EVER set up
[17:54] <BlouBlou> Eighteens: Why? it may be a service
[17:54] <Eighteens> the ip comes back to a china ip
[17:54] <BlouBlou> Eighteens: and if it blocked it, why would you need to set a rule? :-)
[17:54] <sipior> BlouBlou: the connection blocked is an *inbound* connection, not outbound ("SRC")
[17:55] <DreamsofanEagle> I'm currently stuck in 11.04 live CD and can't get anywhere
[17:55] <BlouBlou> Right
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> DreamsofanEagle: ask in #ubuntu+1
[17:55] <DreamsofanEagle> ActionParsnip: this goes for either 10.10 or 11.04
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> DreamsofanEagle: the current issue is with natty which is offtopic here
[17:56] <Sage182> also my ports are wide open, i read none are supposed to be in 10.10 ubuntu
[17:56] <DreamsofanEagle> neither installer allows me to progress further than the "who are you" screen no matter what I try, even when playing with the partitions, or letting it set up the way it wants to
[17:57] <ActionParsnip> DreamsofanEagle: use lowercase for everything
[17:57] <sipior> Sage182: how have you determined that these ports are open?
[17:57] <Pici> DreamsofanEagle: no spaces in username either.
[17:57] <DreamsofanEagle> ActionParsnip: I did, it still won't let me go forward
[17:57] <Sage182> did a netstat
[17:57] <DreamsofanEagle> it just sits there saying "ready when you are"
[17:58] <DreamsofanEagle> the forward button is still greyed out
[17:58] <sipior> Sage182: might be easier if you used a pastebin to show us the output of netstat.
[17:59] <sipior> !paste | Sage182
[17:59] <saby> hi
[17:59] <KNUBBIG> !pastebinit
[17:59] <KNUBBIG> cool
[17:59] <Sage182> got it justy a min
[17:59] <saby> hi, how can i check if i am using ubuntu 11.04 beta 1 or beta 2 ?
[18:00] <wpeter> Hello
[18:00] <raido> Eighteens: Chineese brute force bots are all too common. I am hit by them many hundreds of times per day. If you have good passwords and keep up to date youll be fine.
[18:00] <codex84> go to system about ubuntu
[18:00] <sipior> saby: if it's slightly less broken, beta 2 is a good bet.
[18:00] <sipior> saby: otherwise: lsb_release -a
[18:00] <saby> hahaha sipior  ya that command just tells 11.04
[18:01] <saby> but no info of which version
[18:01] <sipior> saby: perhaps the folks in #ubuntu+1 can help you identify the version you are using.
[18:01] <Sage182> http://paste.ubuntu.com/594126/
[18:01] <codex84> im useing 10.10
[18:01] <Eighteens> raido: thank you for tip!
[18:01] <saby> ya checking it there
[18:01] <codex84> go to system about ubuntu
[18:01] <saby> codex84,  it will show only 11.04
[18:01] <raido> saby: If you are all updated with synaptic, youll be at the latest version
[18:02] <Eighteens> well there is about 40 ips in that kern.log, i just added a deny rule for all of them
[18:02] <codex84> so what you looking for?
[18:02] <Pici> saby: 11.04 is offtopic for this channel, please ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:02] <codex84> lol
[18:02] <sipior> Sage182: those are all unix sockets, you've got no ports open.
[18:02] <Sage182> oh very nice, thank you
[18:02] <sipior> Sage182: what was the precise netstat command?
[18:03] <saby> ok thnx raido
[18:03] <Sage182> what about it embedding in network and my data transmissions with no open applications?
[18:03] <sipior> Sage182: uh...what?
[18:03] <P05TMAN> Repost: To set up my own email server, do I have to use a service like Slice?
[18:03] <Sage182> netstat -an
[18:04] <Pici> P05TMAN: Whats slice?
[18:04] <KNUBBIG> I got this output from fdisk -l on a live CD: http://pastebin.com/3eVHn21e which is obviously wrong. ikonia said that I had to redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?
[18:04] <Sage182> my grandsons windows machine laptop embedded itself in my network
[18:04] <sipior> P05TMAN: no, you do not.
[18:04] <Sage182> i do not have a LAN set up
[18:05] <wpeter> 二条
[18:05] <raido> Sage182: Like in Tron?
[18:05] <Sage182> lol
[18:05] <KNUBBIG> !cn | wpeter
[18:05] <KNUBBIG> mabe? :D
[18:06] <Sage182> i never saw tron or the first one either
[18:06] <Pici> Sage182: Why do you think that something was "embedding in network and my data transmissions with no open applications"?
[18:06] <tt> how can i make my linux in other(persian) language?
[18:07] <bbeattie> Is it possible to run a 24TB volume under a 32 bit kernel?  xfs makes the volume but mount reports "mount: argument list too long" and ext4 reports it can't make a filesystem that large with 4096 blocksize and when I try a blocksize of 16k it reports "mkfs.ext4: 16384-byte blocks too big for system (max 4096)".  Thoughts?
[18:07] <tt> how can i make my linux in other(persian) language?
[18:07] <Sage182> my nic card is showing activity and his PC shows in the network area even after the computer was no longer here
[18:08] <Sage182> also i have decreased bandwidth preform
[18:08] <mymeatinyourseat> BluesKaj, u still in here??
[18:08] <Pici> Sage182: You can check:  netstat -tanp   for any persistant network connections.
[18:08] <Necrocyber> hey anyone
[18:08] <Necrocyber> \o/

[18:10] <P05TMAN> Is there an Ubuntuwiki on how to set up email without an external service?
[18:11] <P05TMAN> Edit: email server

[18:11] <Crum> Hi
[18:11] <Sage182> http://paste.ubuntu.com/594132/  Here is the url for the connections
[18:12] <raido> P05TMAN: howtoforge has the best tutorials
[18:12] <KNUBBIG> QuiSE why do you have no net? :)
[18:12] <Crum> I'm banned from #ubuntu-offtopic .. Does anyone know where I can go to appeal the ban or ask for a lighter punishment?
[18:12] <ericbarnes> I have vsftp setup and working but when I upload files it always give them a 0600 permission. I can't seem to locate how to change this. Would anybody have any ideas?
[18:12] <KNUBBIG> !ot | Crum
[18:12] <KNUBBIG> hihi
[18:12] <QuiSE> By Realtek drivers are bugged
[18:12] <Crum> KNUBBIG but I'm banned from #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:12] <Pici> Crum: #ubuntu-ops
[18:12] <P05TMAN> raido: good to know, thanks!
[18:12] <KNUBBIG> QuiSE try http://kernel.org/
[18:13] <sipior> bbeattie: filesystems larger than 16TB should certainly be possible, but the current toolchain may not support it.
[18:13] <Pici> QuiSE: We do not support backtrack here, please use their channel: #backtrack-linux
[18:13] <bbeattie> sipior: which toolchain are you referencing?
[18:13] <sipior> bbeattie: e2fsprogs.
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> QuiSE: bactrack isnt supported here in any way
[18:14] <sipior> bbeattie: which version of ubuntu are you using for this, by the way?
[18:14] <bbeattie> sipior: and it's not just that ubuntu isn't using the newest but that the project/source doesn't support it at all yet? (10.04lts)
[18:15] <nyuszika7h> Hi, how can I remove programs that were left over after removing kubuntu-desktop?
[18:15] <sipior> bbeattie: more information here: https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto
[18:15] <nyuszika7h> !puregnome
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: you will need to remove more than that, kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage only and removing it does nothing
[18:16] <nyuszika7h> I answered my own question :P
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: if you run:  sudo apt-get --purge remove kde*; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove     it should help
[18:17] <marel> I'm trying to play this game on some website, however google chrome says I'm missing a plug-in, nothing else. Games on popular sites like addictingames do work, how do I make this game work ?
[18:17] <sipior> bbeattie: ZFS is a possibility you might consider. have a look at http://zfsonlinux.org/ if you're feeling adventurous (the latest release is quite nice)
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> marel: what plugin do they use? flash? java?
[18:17] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[18:18] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: it didn't work
[18:18] <marel> ActionParsnip, I think java, when I played it on windows, I had to install java.
[18:18] <KNUBBIG> I got this output from fdisk -l on a live CD: http://pastebin.com/3eVHn21e which is obviously wrong. ikonia said that I had to redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?
[18:18] <bbeattie> sipior: I'm mainly comfortable with xfs and ext? FS's, and this is for production use so I'd hate to use something I haven't personally used for some time in a test environment, but I will add zfs to my 'to check' list of things
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> !java | marel
[18:18] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: I tried the Pure GNOME one, it says virtual packages can't be removed... :S
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: did it remove a lot of packages though?
[18:18] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: nope
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> nyuszika7h: did you try my command?
[18:19] <sipior> bbeattie: you could also use LVM and make a couple filesystems, growing them later.
[18:19] <novacall> How the hell do you get apt-add-repository for x64
[18:19] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: yes, it removed some packages
[18:19] <KNUBBIG> novacall it should be there with no modifications from your side
[18:19] <nyuszika7h> novacall: it's add-apt-repository
[18:19] <KNUBBIG> oh
[18:19] <KNUBBIG> sorry
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> novacall: the only way to change architecture of Ubuntu is to reinstall
[18:19] <novacall> what package is it in
[18:19] <jrib> novacall: it's there by default provided by python-software-properties
[18:20] <nhoc_t39> can you install Play On Linux,help me!
[18:20] <Datz> any set release date for 11.04 yet?
[18:20] <bbeattie> sipior: *nods* I've used lvm before (probably 10 years) and never became much of a fan, but I will keep that in a back pocket.  I'm searching now to see if e2fsprogs has a release with > 4096 block support that I can use on 10.04lts
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> Datz: ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:20] <marcelC> is there a easy and secure way to install firefox 4 in ubuntu?
[18:20] <novacall> ok thx
[18:20] <nyuszika7h> Datz: I saw "15 days left" on a forum yesterday.
[18:20] <nyuszika7h> !ff4 | marcelC
[18:20] <Datz> thanks guys
[18:21] <marcelC> what is PPA?
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> !ppa
[18:21] <clarkthehardy910> is anyone free to help me with a simple script/launcher to start a command-based program from the desktop?
[18:21] <KNUBBIG> !ask clarkthehardy910
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: a script is simply a text file made executable with the top line:   #!/bin/bash
[18:21] <KNUBBIG> !ask | clarkthehardy910
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: the rest are just the commands you want to run in order
[18:22] <iceroot> clarkthehardy910: gnome-terminal -e "command"   for your launcher
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> clarkthehardy910: if the commands are to run without waiting for the previous to end, add an ampersand to the end of the command line
[18:22] <marcelC> if I use ppa when I'll upgrade to 11.04/11.10 I will get into troubles? It is safe to use them?
[18:23] <iceroot> marcelC: depending on the ppa
[18:23] <nyuszika7h> ActionParsnip: nvm, I wanted to reinstall Ubuntu anyway
[18:23] <iceroot> marcelC: normally they are disbaled during upgrade to a newer ubuntu-release
[18:24] <UbuntuFanatic> Just wondering, if I did update-manager -d and updated to Natty;
[18:24] <UbuntuFanatic> am I likely to haveissues?
[18:24] <UbuntuFanatic> *issues
[18:24] <sipior> UbuntuFanatic: yes.
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> UbuntuFanatic: ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:24] <iceroot> UbuntuFanatic: never touch a running system
[18:24] <marel> I'm installing java through terminal, it gave some kind of gui inside of terminal with license agreement, however i can't continue, pressing enter won't work..
[18:25] <UbuntuFanatic> Okay, thanks.
[18:25] <jiltdil> the indicator applet of shutdown,restart is missing from the top right corner how to get it back
[18:25] <iceroot> marcelC: press tab to select YES
[18:25] <arand_> marcelC: The optional case is to not use PPAs, but only if there are major changes in core packages introduced by them should there really cause issues
[18:25] <iceroot> marel: press TAB to select YES
[18:25] <marcelC> is there any other software version that I could wish to be update wish like firefox 4?
[18:25] <iceroot> marcelC: sorry wrong nick
[18:25] <marcelC> np
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> marcelC: use tab and entter
[18:26] <iceroot> marcelC: yes, the kernel with cgroups-patch but never touch a running system
[18:26] <jiltdil> the indicator applet of shutdown,restart is missing from the top right corner how to get it back?

[18:27] <ActionParsnip> danbeam: polls are oftopic here, this is support only
[18:27] <iceroot> danbeam: no need that here

[18:27] <danbeam> iceroot, ActionParnsip - didn't see an #ubuntu-vent channel :P
[18:27] <charles_> hi guys - ubuntu thinks my headphones are plugged and cuts off my speakers until i actually plugin and unplug my headphones again... any idea what's causing this??
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> jiltdil: if you right click the panel you can add any item available to you
[18:27] <iceroot> danbeam: but you see the topic of this channel
[18:27] <jiltdil> iguest:also the applet of eth0 is missing how to get it back
[18:27] <KNUBBIG> I got this output from fdisk -l on a live CD: http://pastebin.com/3eVHn21e which is obviously wrong. ikonia said that I had to redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?
[18:28] <danbeam> iceroot: support graphics cards and desktop configuration better, :)
[18:28] <jiltdil> ActionParsnip:i know it but i don't know which should i add for that
[18:28] <iguest> jiltdil: Dont know - I've had it happen from time to time when starting and stopping GL games that use a different resolution.
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> charles_: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh      Thanks
[18:28] <vick> gentlemen
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> jiltdil: try a few, I'm not 100% sure myself. You can always default the panels if you want
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> !panels | jiltdil
[18:29] <jiltdil> ActionParsnip: thanx
[18:29] <vick> wow ubuntu 11.04 is so buggy.
[18:29] <Pici> vick : Natty/11.04 is not yet released. Please join #ubuntu+1 for further support and discussion.

[18:31] <Juv1228> also, is anything special needed to make a ftdi usb-ttl device work?
[18:31] <iguest> jiltdil: I think the eth0 indicator is actually the "Network Manager" - I think it's located under Startup Programs...
[18:32] <charles_> ActionParsnip: that output is with the sound currently working (i have already plugged/unplugged my headphones).Sound usually cuts off halfway through the login sound.

[18:37] <Deadglow> how do i get rid of ubuntu which i have installed alongside windows and get my partition spack back?
[18:37] <Deadglow> *space
[18:37] <KNUBBIG> Deadglow just use the windows partitioner?
[18:38] <Deadglow> how do i get into that?
[18:38] <KNUBBIG> Right click computer -> manage (what version are you running?)
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Deadglow: use disk manager, you will need to reinstall the bootloader to get windows booting again
[18:40] <MasterBob> Hello. I have Ubuntu already installed, and now I need to install Windows. Is there a good guide on how to do this (dual-booting), so I don't mess anything up?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Deadglow: I suggest you ask in ##windows how to reinstall the bootloader. You may need your install cd for windows
[18:40] <rp21> ActionParsnip: you said acerhk is in the kernel now ... where did you see that? (sorry to reply so late)
[18:41] <Deadglow> ok thanks
[18:41] <hummesse> Hey guys! Does anyone know a pdf reader for ubuntu (or linux in general) that supports editing of comments? Adobe reader does not. And it turns out that searching for "pdf reader for linux with comments" just gives a bunch of site commenting on pdf readers :(
[18:41] <bonjoyee> !dualboot > MasterBob
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> rp21: seems it's a package to give the module: http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/maverick/acerhk
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> !info acerhk
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> rp21: so that is the source to build the acerhk in the kernel as far as I can tell
[18:42] <bonjoyee> hummesse: did you check foxit pdf reader?
[18:42] <rp21> well, that's a source package
[18:42] <hummesse> yup ..
[18:42] <rp21> it won't compile without patches
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> rp21: are there bugs logged?
[18:43] <bonjoyee> hummesse: the windows version does what you need..not sure about the linux variant..
[18:44] <brightspark> How can I remove old keyboard layouts from the menu that shows up when I click my picture at the login screen?
[18:45] <rp21> ActionParsnip: its author has abandoned it, click on the 'homepage' link
[18:46] <rp21> AcerHK GUI (http://sourceforge.net/projects/acerhkgui/) fixes it, but in a really weird way
[18:46] <rp21> when it doesn't find acerhk installed, it offers to download, compile and install it for you
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> rp21: not sure, I ditched Acer a LONG time ago
[18:48] <rp21> so after the update manager issues a kernel upgrade, i have to take this laptop to a wired connection to update acerhk
[18:48] <rp21> that's a little clumsy
[18:49] <tt> do we have special effects on unity?
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> rp21: its the support from acer
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> tt: sure
[18:49] <tt> like wat? desktop rotation?
[18:50] <rp21> i have a Medion laptop, i have no idea what is Acer about it, except that i found out acerhk works to enable its wifi
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> tt:  in 11.04 unity uses compiz. so it can have any compiz effects.. not sure about under  the current release.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> tt: if you are using natty then yes
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> tt: in which case you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:51] <aauthor> Could anyone recommend a curve fitting application for Ubuntu?
[18:51] <tt> i use netbook edition :D
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> tt: yes, but which release?
[18:51] <tt> 10
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> tt: 10.04 or 10.10
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> tt: there is no 10
[18:52] <tt> 10.10 is perfect 10
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> tt: please give FULL details in future.
[18:52] <xatalinux> hello there
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> tt: you will be using mutter as the wM which doesn't give effects
[18:53] <xatalinux> i am new in ubuntu 10.10
[18:53] <BlouBlou> xatalinux: Hi!
[18:53] <xatalinux> and i have a problem with the webcam
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> xatalinux: do you see yourself if you install and run cheese?
[18:53] <bbeattie> Is changing from a kernel from a 32bit 10.04lts to a 64bit kernel, without doing a new install, likely to take more than a couple hours for someone with decent experience with Linux?  Is there much more than changing the kernel, some basic libraries and a couple other items or is there a massive list (>20 libraries) required to change to 64bit?
[18:54] <xatalinux> i have a compaq presario cq 62
[18:54] <tt> i dont get wat u mean ActionParsnip
[18:54] <xatalinux> wit webcam build in
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> bbeattie:  You dont just switch to a 64bit system from a 32bit one.
[18:54] <xatalinux> and i try with cheese and is no picture
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> tt: compiz is a window manager (wm), if you use maverick then the wm will be mutter, not compiz. Compiz is the WM in natty
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> bbeattie:  you reinstall to switch to 64bit basically
[18:54] <ayecee> bbeattie: not only the kernel and libraries, but also every binary.
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> xatalinux: ok then run:  lsusb    use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[18:55] <ayecee> bbeattie: so, yes, massive list.
[18:55] <bonjoyee> bbeattie: using just a 64 bit kernel is possible..but a bit tricky..
[18:55] <bbeattie> dr_willies: years ago I had systems running with either bootable, but this was in the early 64bit development days of the itianium work.
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> bbeattie:  Good luck with that these days.
[18:55] <Superstar> Is it possible to run Ubuntu off a 4GB USB?
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> bbeattie: i'd just reinstall, your OS will be more solid
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> Superstar:  yes.  but 8gb+ is better
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: sure
[18:56] <Dr_Willis> Superstar:  you an do a 'normal' install to a 4 gb flash drive. but it will fill up real fast.
[18:56] <bbeattie> I'm just looking for enough 64bit support to support >16tb volumes, just enough to support xfs in 64 bit
[18:56] <Dr_Willis> Superstar:  a live-cd-with peristant save can also work.
[18:56] <KNUBBIG> I got this output from fdisk -l on a live CD: http://pastebin.com/3eVHn21e which is obviously wrong. ikonia said that I had to redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?
[18:56] <th^^> is there any way to make unity panel 'always on top'? i'd prefer if windows would maximize next to it, not take it over and make the panel hidden, especially as show animation is so damned slow
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Superstar: you can put the ISO on the USB with tools and use 3Gb for user data, updates won't stick but it will run (easy) OR you can make a persistent install and updates will stick (harder)
[18:57] <tt> how can i set/deset proxy in terminal?
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> tt: export http_proxy=""
[18:57] <ActionParsnip> tt: export ftp_proxy=""
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> those are not supposed to be uppercase? I never use proxys :)
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> and of course teh app has to support thta setting i imagine.
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> nar, lowercase is good
[19:01] <Camer0n> how do i find the file size in ubuntu server?
[19:01] <hvgotcodes> is there a support channel for ubuntu on ec2?
[19:02] <th^^> to answer myself, compizconfig can do this
[19:02] <Pici> hvgotcodes: #ubuntu-cloud or #ubuntu-server
[19:02] <bonjoyee> Camer0n: du -hs filename
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> Camer0n: du -h filename
[19:02] <hvgotcodes> Pici: thanx
[19:02] <Camer0n> thanks
[19:03] <th^^> this should be default setting, panel hide on maximize is soooo annoying
[19:03] <brubelsabs> His does anyone installed ubuntu out of a running Moblin? Or do I really need to install from USB?
[19:04] <faouzi> if you choose a partition in ubuntu server, is everything deleted on it?
[19:05] <rajo> join / #rasha666
[19:05] <faouzi> ?
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> faouzi: if you mark it for formatting, yes
[19:06] <faouzi> i didn't see, formatting
[19:06] <faouzi> i just want to try ubuntu server bunt don't want to lose my files
[19:06] <kanus_> join #ubuntu-cz-meeting
[19:06] <kanus_> help
[19:06] <bonjoyee> faouzi: try it in a virtual machine..
[19:06] <Pici> kanus_: /join #channel
[19:07] <kanus_> Pici: thanks, i didn't use xchat for long time
[19:07] <faouzi> i just boot from my USB stick
[19:08] <vick> I have downloaded aptana 3 ... but it's just a folder? no install..what is a good place to put it?
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> whats aptana 3 ? look in the folder?
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> faouzi:  i dont think the unetbootin, or usb disk creator tool works with the server edition.
[19:09] <faouzi> it did
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> faouzi:  you could od a full normal install to a usb flash drive
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> ive seen many others in here with issues using the server iso on flash drives
[19:10] <Starminn> Dr_Willis:http://www.aptana.com/products/studio3 (Aptana 3)
[19:10] <faouzi> my flash drive didn't appear on the disks list in server
[19:10] <Guest79833> fuck you nerd
[19:11] <brubelsabs> Ok I am now able to be more precise: I want to install ubuntu out of a running fedora.. is that possible?
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> brubelsabs:  via 'debootstrap' yes. I hear its possible.. or some virtual machine.. will it be problametic . also very possible.
[19:12] <swatto> Guys I have an ftp server setup and my home directory is: /home/ftp/swattoftp - I also have access to /var/www but cant seem to access it as I think my ftp user account is locked down to swattoftp? Im using PureFTPD - does anyone know how to fix it?
[19:12] <faouzi> lol, i lost my flash drive
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> its under the couch.
[19:13] <faouzi> no
[19:13] <faouzi> somewher ein my bed :P
[19:13] <Polah> Swatto: Look for an option to chroot FTP users.
[19:13] <Polah> Disable it
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> Its also proberly a good idea to look into not using FTP but starting to use SSH and SCP/SFTP instead
[19:15] <icehawk78> What should I do in order to block all connection attempts to a set group of ports from a specific IP?
[19:16] <KNUBBIG> I got this output from fdisk -l on a live CD: http://pastebin.com/3eVHn21e which is obviously wrong. ikonia said that I had to redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> KNUBBIG:  whats obviously wrong about it?
[19:16] <tt> how can i resume sth with scp?
[19:17] <nyuszika7h> KNUBBIG: Type 'redo all partitions in order to get my Ubuntu installing. Any other solution you know of?' in the terminal. :D
[19:17] <swatto> Polah: what does that do? I know chmod but not sure what that does?
[19:17] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: nyuszika7h is kinda right, just redo it all, it wouldn't take long to modify them to be correctr
[19:17] <KNUBBIG> Dr_Willis the difference between the partitions on the RAID and the ones actually mounted, Ubuntu detects some partitions on sda which is part of a RAID setup and did not use the partitions on md0 which also are detected incorrectly
[19:17] <tt> how can i resume sth with scp?
[19:18] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor I have Windows 7 + data on it
[19:18] <nyuszika7h> Is it just me or Lucid seems stabler than Maverick for anyone else?
[19:18] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: then don't touch the windows 7 partitions, and only operate with the space used by the current Ubuntu installation
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> nyuszika7h:  cant say that i noticed a differance.
[19:18] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor I can't install ubuntu
[19:19] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor as I have some empty space left but Ubuntu doesn't detect it
[19:19] <nyuszika7h> Anyway, Lucid is LTS, so since I was going to reinstall Ubuntu, I'll install Lucid.
[19:19] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: how big is this empty space
[19:19] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor the output from fdisk was from a live cd
[19:19] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor about 300 GB
[19:19] <nyuszika7h> I backed up my home folder to my USB flash drive, and now I can't access the "hidden" folders (those whose name starts with a dot) from Windows. Is this normal?
[19:20] <Dr_Willis> KNUBBIG:  perhaps check cfdisk output and what parted/gparted  says about it.  'fdisk' is getting a little out dated with a lot of these new setups and complex drive layouts.
[19:20] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: Wait, do you mean you have a free partition of 300GB, or that is the space that Windows 7 says you have left?
[19:20] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor that is a free partition, unused space
[19:20] <KNUBBIG> cellardoor (not formatted in any way)
[19:20] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: then I afraid I have no idea :/
[19:20] <cellardoor> KNUBBIG: the partition may be corrupt in some way so fdisk has trouble reading it, but unlikely
[19:21] <KNUBBIG> Dr_Willis okay, thanks, I'll try that. I'm worried that neither 10.10 nor 11.04 is able to detect the correct layout especially as everything is working fine in Windows
[19:21] <trik> Does anybody in here have Photoshop installed on there computer?
[19:21] <cellardoor> trik: you refer to using Photoshop in linux?
[19:21] <Dr_Willis> KNUBBIG:  ive given up on using complex raid and other fancy layouts. :) I just do one HD per OS these days.
[19:22] <trik> Yes. I guess.
[19:22] <Dr_Willis> !appdb | trik
[19:22] <KNUBBIG> Dr_Willis :D I used to have the setup this way on my old computer, here's the layout as it should be seen in Windows: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2qv5url&s=7
[19:22] <KNUBBIG> and as it is
[19:22] <trik> OH I know. I am asking if anybody else in here does that. I have it but the interface looks really bad and its slow.
[19:23] <bonjoyee> icehawk78: look into "man ufw"
[19:23] <cellardoor> trik: since aspects of Windows are being emulated the speed issue is probably unavoidable, what are the specs of your machine?
[19:23] <bastidrazor> nyuszika7h: for stability LTS is the only way to go.
[19:24] <trik> Well, whats the command to output the specs?
[19:24] <cellardoor> trik: also it may be that wine is trying to emulate an older version of windows. Run winecfg in a terminal, what does the 'Windows Version' selection show as?
[19:24] <nyuszika7h> bastidrazor: yeah. And I don't want to trick with Plymouth, so I won't install the propertiary graphics driver, I mainly use Ubuntu for programming and chatting.
[19:25] <nyuszika7h> I've got Windows, too (which I'm running now) -- I'll use that for gaming.
[19:25] <jordotech> hi guys, i have a user who for some reason can't use the up/down arrows to go through past commands, how can I investigate this?  I'm sudo
[19:25] <jordotech> usermod?
[19:27] <trik> Windows 7
[19:27] <Dr_Willis> jordotech:  check that they are using bash, not sh, or some other shell  perhaps.
[19:27] <trik> cellardoor,
[19:27] <vick> guys I cant copy and paste..why
[19:27] <jordotech> Dr_Willis, how can i confirm that, in their .bashrc?
[19:27] <cellardoor> trik: hmm, try whacking it down to WinXP, windows 7 in wine is still a bit new
[19:27] <Dr_Willis> jordotech:  check their shell when they log in. not sure how else to do it.
[19:28] <Dr_Willis> jordotech:  chsh command perhaps.
[19:28] <cellardoor> trik: and about the speed, what are your machine specs?
[19:28] <bastidrazor> jordotech: as the effected user do: echo $SHELL
[19:28] <TRider> no browser is opening.what can I do ?
[19:28] <bastidrazor> affected rather.
[19:28] <jordotech> ah thank you
[19:28] <trik> is there a command I can use to output the specs?
[19:29] <bastidrazor> trik: cat /proc/meminfo and cat /proc/cpuinfo
[19:29] <cellardoor> trik: paste this to http://paste.ubuntu.com...... cat /proc/cpuinfo
[19:29] <cellardoor> ;D
[19:29] <bastidrazor> trik: or for the cpu information you could install cpufrequtils and then use the command cpufreq-info
[19:30] <zylogz80> anyone know hot to make impress embed video or audio files added to a presentation into the actual odp file? right now it is pointing to the video file on my hard drive so if I were to send the presentation to someone else the video and audio files would not play. I need them in the actual presentation file.
[19:31] <mick__> Siemanko wszystkim ?
[19:31] <MagicJ> how do I change the resolution of my screen?
[19:31] <mellin> What do I "man" for to find grub2 rescue information?
[19:31] <vick> can someone help me with installing pdo drivers for mssql on ubuntu?
[19:31] <Obsidian1723> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/594151/ <-- my question / issue
[19:31] <cellardoor> MagicJ: if you are in GNOME, its under Administration, Display, or something like that, not hard to find
[19:32] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | mellin
[19:32] <cellardoor> MagicJ: or under 'System' in the new menu layout
[19:32] <MagicJ> cellardoor:  I would have expeced to find it there but there is no such option
[19:33] <cellardoor> !X | MagicJ
[19:33] <trik> cellardoor, http://paste.ubuntu.com/594159/
[19:33] <MagicJ> cellardoor:  what do you mean by your second  response
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> system -> perferances - > Monitors
[19:33] <bastidrazor> MagicJ: System > Preferences > Monitors
[19:33] <zylogz80> MagicJ, System > Preferences < Monitors
[19:33]  * bastidrazor grins: its that way in 10.04.. unsure of later releases
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> or via command line --> gnome-display-properties (i think)
[19:34] <MagicJ> zylog: ty
[19:34] <bastidrazor> Dr_Willis: you are correct
[19:34] <cellardoor> trik: that machine should be easily capable of running something like photoshop in wine without much lag.. laptop I am guessing?
[19:35] <trik> Desktop.
[19:35] <cellardoor> trik: how 'deep' is the work you do in photoshop. because GIMP can do most things
[19:36] <trik>  Screen Splash screen looks terrible. Some parts of the ui is white/grey, and not much.
[19:36] <trik> And gimp is really confussing. I just can't get myself to use it.
[19:36] <trik> Like previewing edits, etc
[19:36] <cellardoor> trik: hmm, it does take time to adjust to that is true, but if Wine emulates Photoshop poorly there isn't much that can be done really.
[19:37] <trik> What about beta version of wine?
[19:37] <zylogz80> trik, learning new software takes time. I switched from photoshop to gimp and I'd never go back. you are better off putting the time in to learn it and then be free from the price tag, or piracy, and the hassle of either windows or wine forever.
[19:37] <trik> also, um... I am also using a portable versio of PS too. could that be a problem?
[19:37] <cellardoor> trik: no real difference, its all the same emulation techniques at the end of the day, and Beta won't be that advanced over the current one
[19:37] <penguinbait> I am working with an arm 10.10 image and I finally have X working, is there a way to reset it to do the installer on boot, its now booting directly to X with no users or setup, how can I force instller to run on boot?
[19:37] <cellardoor> trik: I agree with zylogz80 big time
[19:38] <peeepz_> can someone please guide me in the right direction on how to install pdo drivers on ubuntu
[19:38] <mellin> Alright I just wanted to make sure before asking. I had an issue with grub2 not finding the external USB device that Maverick was installed on. So when I hit the rescue prompt I figured help would be a good start to find available commands. It did not understand help from the rescue prompt. Why was that?
[19:38] <bonny> do you know of any distros like lubuntu something that is fast and lightweight and is under 200 MB
 Sorry, I don't know anything about myself
[19:39] <nyuszika7h> lololololol
[19:39] <cellardoor> bonny: Puppy Linux
[19:39] <bonny> ive tried that already
[19:39] <cellardoor> bonny: why the 200mb cap?
[19:39] <nyuszika7h> bonny: Little Susie
[19:39] <jana_> hi there!
[19:39] <Pici> peeepz_: Install the php5-msyql package
[19:40] <Pici> bonny: This channel is only for Ubuntu, try ##linux for general Linux distro questions
[19:40] <peeepz_> Pici, I have.
[19:40] <Pici> peeepz_: Then you should have it.
[19:40] <jheathco> hey i'm on domain.com, and have the MX records setup to use google for my email, yet when i use the sendmail on domain.com to send to a user on domain.com, it uses localhost instead of relaying thru the MX record for google… why is it doing this? how can i fix it?
[19:40] <peeepz_> Pici, It does not come with drivers for MSSQL :(
[19:40] <Superstar> Where do I download https://launchpad.net/messagingmenu-extension from?
[19:40] <Pici> peeepz_: Oh.. MSSQL. I read that as MYSQL
[19:40] <jordotech> ack, can someone help me real quick, I just did a 'usermod -s bash [username]' for a user and it fixed the shell he was getting on login but it also kicked him out and he can't logon to the server...
[19:40] <peeepz_> Pici, any ideas? please.
[19:40] <TRider> all browsers get input output error. tried remove/install
[19:41] <cellardoor> jordotech: run passwd #username and reset his pass for him
[19:41] <Pici> peeepz_: The description for php5-sybase says that it should be able to connect to MSSQL
[19:41] <dejan_> can I ask mysql question im muted in #Mysql
[19:41] <jordotech> k here goes
[19:41] <Polah> swatto, chroot locks things into a directory. It makes it think the directory it's in is root and thus it can't go up any further. Your FTP user might be chrooted to it's home directory
[19:41] <jana_> i need help for my ar928x wireless card. I just got the asus router gt-32 and from now i cannot open wepages like ebay, youtube.etc. but others seem to be no problem.Does anybody know what this is aboit?
[19:42] <Pici> dejan_: You can ask, but it may not be able to be answered here.
[19:42] <FloatingGoat> GDM says it failed to configure, also a session refuses to be started
[19:42] <FloatingGoat> what the flub do I do?
[19:42] <UTF> i have been googling and googling, might any of u guys know how this dude made his top bar look like this? http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/140774-1.jpg
[19:43] <mellin> jheathco: Because you should be trying sendmail from a different domain. Your MX files reside on domain.com so there is not need to make any hops to another nameserver since you are already there.
[19:43] <DaPenguin> jana_: does it give you any error msgs when you try and connect?
[19:43] <jordotech> cellardoor, i changed it but still getting permission denied...
[19:43] <dejan_> Pici, thaks
[19:43] <dejan_> how can I change Server, database, client and connection characterset I am using mysql 14.14 on ubuntu 10.10 mysql client console
[19:43] <FloatingGoat> hellar people halp ,me?
[19:43] <mellin> FloatingGoat: Just as the question
[19:43] <mellin> *ask*
[19:44] <cellardoor> jordotech: i am guessing rebooting the server is out of the question
[19:44] <FloatingGoat> mellin: already did
[19:45] <jordotech> no, its not out of the question, do you think thats the solution? its just a dev server
[19:45] <DaPenguin> jana_: it may be an issue with the router or firewall blocking the default https port (different than regular html port 80)
[19:45] <jordotech> cellardoor, ^
[19:45] <mellin> FloatingGoat: Hmmm... guess it was before I logged in. My apologies
[19:45] <jana_> i use the ath9k driver
[19:45] <jana_> and ubuntu 10.04
[19:45] <cellardoor> jordotech: worth a go, otherwise something is definitely messed up >.<
[19:45] <Dr_Willis> FloatingGoat:  you could go to the console do a 'sudo service gdm stop' then try 'startx'
[19:45] <cellardoor> Dr_Willis: jordotech is it console only?

[19:48] <sspm_coe> hello, I had tryed to remaster Ubuntu and got success many times, but I find that  mksquashfs command gave very very strange output.  when I did it today evening it was hwoing some 2000000 nodes to be done and I had to stop it.  Then when I restarted  mksquashfs then this time it says only 200000 nodes
[19:48] <Dr_Willis> Guest961:  taken to the extreme.. yes. :)
[19:48] <jordotech> ah i think i know what the problem is cellardoor , i think instead of just 'sh' it needs to be '/bin/sh'
[19:48] <cellardoor> Guest961: hundreds of chatrooms, across hundreds of servers
[19:48] <Starminn> Guest961: Yes, with this one having 1,656 people in it right now

[19:48] <cellardoor> jordotech: a full path may help yes
[19:48] <sspm_coe> can some one tell me if there is a harm in stopping  mksquashfs and then restarting it on the same folder?

[20:28] <m|kael> can anyone help me configure bind9 nameserver please? im lost
[20:28] <christianju> ActionParsnip: ppa's vlc-version is 1.1.8 not 9
[20:28] <ikonia> m|kael: just ask the question
[20:29] <m|kael> ikonia: how do i do it
[20:29] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: which distro ?
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> christianju: there are ppas around with it
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> !ppa
[20:29] <DasEi> !version | FloatingGoat
[20:29] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: well i was in 10.10, upragding to 11.04
[20:29] <ikonia> m|kael: what have you done so far ?
[20:29] <FloatingGoat> but at the end
[20:29] <FloatingGoat> metacity decided to crash
[20:30] <nownot> is there a gui in ubuntu 10.10 for setting up raid 5 arrays?
[20:30] <m|kael> ikonia: ive installed bind9 etc, and now im clueless what to do in config.. ive never done anything like this before
[20:30] <FloatingGoat> and like some error about dpkg failing occured
[20:30] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: i can boot my natty vm and give you the sources.list
[20:30] <ikonia> m|kael: ok - first question, is this a home connection ?
[20:30] <FloatingGoat> now its going herp derp and not letting me start a session
[20:30] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: what would that do?
[20:30] <matt__> Hi there, does anybody have a second to help me out on something?
[20:30] <BlouBlou> matt__: sure, ask it
[20:30] <ikonia> matt__: just ask a question
[20:30] <m|kael> ikonia: correct, i bought a domain and i want it to work on my home ip
[20:30] <matt__> Okie dokie.
[20:31] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: gdm is in main, so if that's not found, probably got messed sources
[20:31] <ikonia> m|kael: then I suggest you don't try to run a name server on your home connection
[20:31] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: do I have to manually get the sources back?
[20:31] <m|kael> ikonia: isnt bind9 a nameserver?
[20:31] <nownot> is there a gui in ubuntu 10.10 for setting up raid 5 arrays?
[20:31] <ikonia> m|kael: I suggest you use one of the hosting providers that offer domain server
[20:31] <ikonia> m|kael: correct, which is why I suggest you don't do it
[20:31] <s33kr> do u have to type some command for everyone to see what you wrote? cuz everytime i join a server nobody is talking
[20:31] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: can you install pastebinit ?
[20:32] <m|kael> ikonia: well im pretty much screwed there since i already own the domain and i have no nameserver hosting anywhere so i have to point the domain directly at my ip and need a naameserver there
[20:32] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: I can only do things in tty
[20:32] <FloatingGoat> FloatingGoat: everything was a fresh install, so ill just reinstall
[20:32] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: so sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[20:32] <nownot> yes no? anyone
[20:32] <FloatingGoat> even though it will take a few hours.. again...
[20:32] <leeland> m|kael most registrars have their own nameservers you can use for free
[20:32] <matt__> I have an alienware laptop 5700, it has two 80 gig hd's. Neways i downloaded the 11.04 desktop and it never got past the loading screen. So i went ahead and did the alternate cd. I get to the point where it asks if i should enable raid....i say yes. then it goes and goes and gets to well where do you want the grub? well i tried so many flipping times it would install and then boom nothing would work....so i finally got it going but had to di
[20:32] <matt__> sable raid and now im stuck using one harddrive of 80 gigs....is there any way we can correct this from my installed distro now?
[20:33] <ikonia> m|kael: then you've not done your research, you need two name servers to point a domain at, it needs to be on a static ip that's registered with the correct registrar as a name server
[20:33] <m|kael> leeland: mine doesnt :/
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> matt__: ask in #ubuntu+1
[20:33] <leeland> m|kael who is your resistrar?
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> matt__: natty isn't supported here until release day
[20:33] <m|kael> iss.se
[20:33] <m|kael> leeland: iss.se
[20:34] <matt__> kk thnku! I just figured id prolly have the same problem on the supported distro as well, thnku though.
[20:34] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: what is linux headers generic?
[20:34] <DasEi> !headers
[20:34] <BlouBlou> FloatingGoat: and generic means there isn't optimized for any plataform, no amd, no intel..., it's the generic one
[20:35] <leeland> m|kael betyter yet what is the domain?
[20:35] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: pastebinit installed ?
[20:36] <m|kael> ikonia: so basicly i messed up and lost 60 euro when buying my domain? :-(
[20:36] <damno> I need a help about slitaz; their channel is ghost dead :(    do any of you guys use it?
[20:36] <matt__> Ok so what would I traditionally do say on a supported distro?
[20:36] <matt__> Because Im sure i would have the same problem.
[20:36] <ikonia> matt__: 11.04 is different
[20:37] <ikonia> matt__: ask in #ubuntu+1
[20:37] <damian> Hey all, has anyone experience really slow uploading to YouTube with Ubuntu?  Takes 300+mins where Win7 takes 50mins tops.  Ideas anyone?  Tried both Firefox and Chromium
[20:37] <matt__> I did, and I'm very sorry. Nobody is replying there.
[20:37] <ikonia> matt__: then wait for a response
[20:37] <TRider> firefox barely starts, then quits again what can I do ?
[20:37] <damno> I need a help about slitaz; their channel is ghost dead :(    do any of you guys use it?
[20:37] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: wond work said something like linux-headers-generic :depends: linux<IP_ADDRESS><---nore really what it said just a guess is to be installed
[20:37] <ikonia> matt__: you've waited less than 5 minutes, wait for a response
[20:38] <ikonia> damno: sorry, we don't support that here, just ubuntu
[20:38] <m|kael> ikonia: so basicly i messed up and lost 60 euro when buying my domain? :-(
[20:38] <damian> TRider: Have you tried starting it from Terminal and seeing if it reports an error ?
[20:38] <DasEi> TRider: try from terminal to get debug-messages
[20:38] <FloatingGoat> then like something like smbclient : depends: is going to be installed
[20:38] <ikonia> m|kael: there are many other options it depends on your registrar, contact them and ask them for options
[20:38] <damno> iconia: ok, b\no prob.
[20:38] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:38] <m|kael> ikonia: will do
[20:39] <FloatingGoat> and then pastebin :depends: python132413241 is not going to be installed
[20:39] <DasEi> k
[20:39] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:39] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: okat
[20:39] <TRider> no messages at all
[20:40] <Wipster> how can I stream 01010101 constantly to a usb device?
[20:40] <TRider> tried sudo tail -f /var/log/messages but nothinh
[20:40] <abiss27> Guys i pressed Ctrl+h in my home folder, I opened my Documents folder to see this file in it ... .~lock.GRUB - COMMAND LIST.odt#, inside of it has this: ,abiss,abiss11,11.04.2011 22:59,file:///home/abiss/.openoffice.org/3;     Does anyone know about this thing?
[20:41] <FloatingGoat> DasEi: said the sam thing
[20:41] <FloatingGoat> linux-headers-depends
[20:41] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[20:42] <FloatingGoat> then its like do apt-get -f to correct these
[20:42] <FloatingGoat> tried that and it gave me a list of apt-get commands
[20:42] <FloatingGoat> and told me that it has super cow powers
[20:42] <TRider> hehe
[20:44] <airtonix> :< : Evolution keeps forgetting my email passwords for when i return from suspend...
[20:44] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: sudo apt-get install --fix-missing
[20:44] <quiescens> abiss27: its just a lock file that openoffice created when it opened a file named 'GRUB - COMMAND LIST.odt', it will be removed when you close the file usually
[20:45] <abiss27> quiescens:  it has been there some time now
[20:46] <mik3> hi all
[20:46] <quiescens> abiss27: if you don't have something by that name open and you're not trying to autorecover then you can most likely remove it
[20:46] <DasEi> FloatingGoat: progress ?
[20:47] <abiss27> quiescens: ok  I'll do that then , and thanks
[20:47] <mik3> pidgin or xchat?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> mik3: pidgin here but its a 10 year habit
