[11:37] <erUSUL> wrapster: dunno; my phone when connected ask me if i want to connect as mass storage (i can transfer files to its memory stick) or as a phone (a serial port is created)
[11:37] <messiah> talsemgeest, hey!!!! :D
[11:38] <ActionParsnip1> emerson: you only want there to be one
[11:38] <erUSUL> wrapster: as i said i dunno how your phone is detected maybe it is as modem ?
[11:38] <Guest52850> hi~
[11:38] <meowbuntuce> maby i did i got ubuntu 9.04 and upgraded to this http://ubuntuce.com/convert.htm
[11:38] <Catalin> hello all
[11:38] <talsemgeest> messiah: Looks like I wont be any more help than I have already been, I am out of ideas
[11:38] <messiah> talsemgeest, i have just re-installed xubuntu... i can't make my ip static... and also now i have the problem that there aren't windows, and i don't know why
[11:38] <meowbuntuce> ^ ActionParsnip1
[11:38] <messiah> talsemgeest, what aboutt he windows problem?
[11:38] <Catalin> any idee how to login as root on the screen in Ubuntu 9.10 ?
[11:39] <talsemgeest> messiah: Can you be a bit more detailed with the windows problem?
[11:39] <erUSUL> wrapster: esiest wayt to find out is on a terminal do « tailf /var/log/messages » then plug your phone
[11:39] <erUSUL> !root | Catalin
[11:39] <Guest52850> ?
[11:39]  * meowbuntuce wonders how ActionParsnip1 does it in here
[11:39] <Catalin> erUSUL, escuse me?
[11:39] <messiah> talsemgeest, hehehe... well, since i re-installed xubuntu (i didn't do anything, just install it) there is not buttons like the X to close, or _ to minimize... everything i open i can't close it or minimize with that
[11:39] <emerson> ActioinParsnip1:when I type <who> shows me how many people a logged in right, if I have two terminals open that comand will tell right ?
[11:40] <legend2440> NightEyes: did you say you verified the md5sums for the iso?
[11:40] <nicle> NightEyes: so, what's the cmdline which used to burn the dvd image?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: most are common gripes like flash or rubbishy intel video issues
[11:40] <talsemgeest> messiah: Have you tried changing the theme?
[11:40] <erUSUL> Catalin: there is no root user; you can not log in as root
[11:40] <messiah> talsemgeest, where?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> emerson: not sure, never used it
[11:40] <Catalin> how can login after i restart my PC and the system ask me to enter my username or the pass for root
[11:40] <talsemgeest> messiah: Im afraid I havent used xubuntu in a while, so you will have to find it yourself. It should be somewhere in the settings
[11:40] <indus> there is a root user
[11:41] <indus> easy if you go to users and groups
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: you shouldnt log in as root
[11:41] <indus> !root
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: nor is it necessary
[11:41] <erUSUL> !noroot
[11:41] <erUSUL> !noroot | indus
[11:41] <indus> once you set a password , you are done
[11:41] <pwnst_r> root = fail
[11:41] <Catalin> ActionParsnip1, i need to login as a root because i want to share a directory
[11:42] <erUSUL> indus: you0've been here long enough to know what i mean.
[11:42] <indus> yeah yeah :)
[11:42] <erUSUL> !noroot > indus
[11:42] <erUSUL> !wfm > indus
[11:42] <Catalin> and i need permission for that ActionParsnip1
[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: users can share directorys, and you can also use sudo and gksudo to get administritive access
[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: as long as your user is in the admin group, it is as powerful as root
[11:42] <indus> in fact ,ubuntu makes it rather easy to set a root password i say, with a GUI and all
[11:42] <rd> how can i disable clamav frshclam auto update
[11:43] <Catalin> ActionParsnip1, how i can share a folder ?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: the root account isnt disabled to annoy or challenge you, its disabled for security
[11:43] <indus> Catalin: what everyone is saying is, sudo will give you escalated privileges, and all things is possibl with correct permissions
[11:43] <emerson> ActionParsnip1:one that's why I realised that more things a running in my machine, amule was the easiest to find but the after you told to use <ps if | less> and <kill> <pid> but that other two I can't
[11:43] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: depends what method, if you use samba you can use nautilus to share them like you do in windows
[11:44] <krishna> Hi
[11:44] <talsemgeest> !hello | krishna
[11:44] <Catalin> i did that but after i restart my pc nothing is there
[11:44] <wrapster> erUSUL: http://pastie.org/689996
[11:44] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: you can also manually edit /etc/samba/smb.conf if you like, to get access you will need gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf so you can write the changes back but the gui method will do you fine
[11:44] <ActionParsnip1> !samba | Catalin
[11:45] <erUSUL> wrapster: !??? usb 3-2.2: USB disconnect, address 4 <<< this is a disconnect
[11:45] <rd> how can i disable clamav frshclam auto update
[11:45] <erUSUL> wrapster: do the tailf command and "connect" the phone
[11:45] <ActionParsnip1> Catalin: you still do NOT need root at all, ever
[11:45] <krishna> my computer janitor deleted the old initrd 2.6.28 generic which my menu.lst was using... this new 2.6.31  but in this new 31, i am not getting my usual resolution of 1440 * 900.. i am only getting 800 600... how to get back my old resoulution ??????????????
[11:46] <Catalin> i see ActionParsnip1
[11:46] <indus> krishna: maybe reinstall the older kernel
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> krishna: you may need to reinstall your video driver for the new kernel, what video card do you use
[11:46] <indus> ActionParsnip1: cant say ever
[11:46] <rd> nobody?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> indus: 99% of the time. I can name a small handful of cases
[11:47] <wrapster> erUSUL: even then this is what i get ... here is the o/p of dmesg |tail -10 http://pastie.org/689997
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> rd: is it scheduled via cron?
[11:47] <wrapster> why did it fail? any idea?
[11:47] <indus> ActionParsnip1: there are some things which are done oldschool best it seems
[11:47] <wrapster> and how do i get it back online?
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> indus: the vast majority can e covered using gk/kde/sudo
[11:47] <krishna> ActionParsnip1, http://paste.ubuntu.com/314017/ ///
[11:47] <erUSUL> wrapster: well then the problem is not in the phone but in the usb ports/driver ...
[11:48] <indus> krishna: ActionParsnip says correct, reinstall
[11:48] <rd> ActionParsnip1: when i install clamav-freshclam ,it autotomatically start downloading .
[11:48] <erUSUL> wrapster: tried different usb ports on your computer?
[11:48] <emerson> what's tty7 means ?
[11:48] <krishna> indus, how to ?   i did not install any driver before...
[11:48] <rd> ActionParsnip1: i have a very low spped connection and there is now option to stop it or kill it
[11:48] <erUSUL> emerson: tty number 7 if you want to know what a tty is then google around ;)
[11:48] <_Narc_> Hey guys, I was about to report a bug on Firefox but I wanted to know if anyone is experiencing it: the favicons missing in the dropdown menu l"list all tabs" in Ubuntu 9.10 ?
[11:48] <wrapster> erUSUL: hmm.. Well all are taken.. so was using a hub.. let see when i can reboot it and hope it will work..
[11:48] <aLeSD> krishna: which video card do u have ?
[11:49] <indus> krishna: just install the older kernel if that wroks
[11:49] <wrapster> is there any way i can actually do it with out rebooting?
[11:49] <erUSUL> wrapster: then is the hub the one having problems try attaching directly
[11:49] <wrapster> erUSUL: ok
[11:49] <krishna> aLeSD, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) this shows for lspci

[11:49] <krishna> krishna, is it in synaptic ?
[11:49] <indus> krishna: yes
[11:50] <indus> emerson: teletypewriter

[11:50] <wizz> where i can find this   AR242x 802.llabg Wireless PCI Express Adapter   ?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip1> rd: if its scheduled by cron you can remove the job, if its part of the startup process then you will need to edit that, you need to work out what trigers it to update and stop it. I dont use clamav but you will need to dig a little
[11:50] <indus> emerson: in unix its oneo f the consoles which you type and get output from

[11:53] <ActionParsnip1> wizz: you will need to recompile it if you boot to a new kernel so keep the source handy
[11:54] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: you may have to force one or more of them to satisfy the dpes of the other(s)
[11:54] <aLeSD> krishna: why u think that the old kernel will work ?

[11:55] <lilyshu> SingAlong : that's all?

[11:57] <SingAlong> lilyshu: just search netbook launcher in the pkg mgr.
[11:57] <krishna> aLeSD,how to reconfigure x
[11:57] <Tartaros> lilyshu: they're under the ubuntu-netbook-remix metapackage
[11:57] <SingAlong> I installed LXDE and XFCE on 9.10 (it already had Gnome). Now I have duplicate icons in my menubar. How do i clean the clutter?
[11:57] <krishna> indus, ok. any link with howto ?
[11:57] <epinky> !ot | rd
[11:57] <krishna> indus, or any command ?
[11:57] <rd> epinky: whats supposed to mean?
[11:57] <jrib> epinky: erm rd's question is on-topic...
[11:57] <indus> krishna: i dont know, too tired to help
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> SingAlong: you can delete items from /usr/share/applications or in xubuntu you can use alacarte
[11:58] <rd> epinky: its clamav in ubuntu . i didnt have this problem in suse
[11:58] <SingAlong> ActionParsnip1: alacarte is an app?
[11:58] <krishna> indus, sorry
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> !info alacarte
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> SingAlong: you should be able to right click the menu and select edit menu
[11:58] <lilyshu> Tartaros SingAlong you two had different answers.. but i'll give it a shot
[11:59] <Tartaros> lilyshu: not really it's the same thing :)
[11:59] <indus> erUSUL: can you help krishna ?
[11:59] <LexR> anyone noticed in synaptic that there are two sets of isntalled apps: Installed and isntalled (manually). are some dependencies missing, or what is the problem? in jauny, I only had installed and not isntalled packages, no installed manually...
[11:59] <SingAlong> ActionParsnip1: oh so that clean up is a manual job :) can i just remove xfce and lxde and would it all be gone?
[11:59] <theadmin> LexR: I'd assume "Installed manually" means "Installed via .deb files"
[11:59] <aLeSD> krishna, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:00] <jrib> LexR: I think "installed (manually)" is what you asked it to install while "installed" includes the dependencies it needed as well
[12:00] <SingAlong> ActionParsnip1: also my gnome power manager is missing. I'm not able to find it in the list when i click "add to panel"
[12:00] <krishna> aLeSD, i entered that.
[12:00] <ActionParsnip1> SingAlong: if the packages that have been added are removed, then yes. Reoving xubuntu-desktop   package will achieve nothing as it is only a metapackage
[12:00] <nicle> aLeSD: I find this cmd line doesn't work in 9.10 anymore
[12:00] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: <deb> = ??? is it "sudo dpkg --force-all -i libperl5.10"  or "sudo dpkg --force-all -i  perl-base= 5.10.0-19ubuntu1.1"
[12:00] <krishna> aLeSD, but gave no output
[12:00] <Valentina> I have installed Ubuntu Server together with LAMP. The problem is that sudo aptitude show php5 doesn't show that php is installed. When I create a phpinfo.php file in Apache then I can get the PHP info. Why isn't aptitude showing that the php is installed?
[12:00] <aLeSD> nicle: well how to reconfigure X ?
[12:00] <LexR> theadmin: jrib: In think that those packages were there after a clean isntall. I did not install any .deb packages except those from the repo using apt-get..
[12:01] <AdvoWork> how can you remove the oldest file from a certain directory? any ideas? from the terminal?
[12:01] <nicle> aLeSD: I have no idea too :(
[12:01] <indus> those dpkg xserver commands are all deprecated now
[12:01] <indus> used to be so useful
[12:01] <indus> now they do nothing really
[12:01]  * meowbuntuce is amazed at how ActionParsnip1 remember everthing going on here
[12:01] <theadmin> try... ehm... "sudo init 1", then choose "xfix" from menu.
[12:01] <aLeSD> indus: do I have to edit xorg.conf by hands ?
[12:02] <indus> aLeSD: i wont advice it really,
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: its the full file name of the deb file
[12:02] <Blank__> I've been using FFADO with jackd successfully within Ubuntu Studio 9.04, however since upgrading to Karmic I get an error when attempting to run jackd, claiming "No firewire adapters (ports) found."
[12:02] <theadmin> aLeSD: try... ehm... "sudo init 1", then choose "xfix" from menu. (That was for you :D)
[12:02] <aLeSD> krishna: well let's try to find out what's going on in the log file
[12:02] <jrib> AdvoWork: oldest in what sense?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: the name and thread of conversation jogs my memory
[12:02] <indus> aLeSD: and with all new promises of ubuntu being easier to configure, we shouldnt do it
[12:02] <krishna> aLeSD, where is log ?
[12:02] <gkey> anyone experienced any problem with keyserver.ubuntu.com?
[12:02] <aLeSD> theadmin: never ... that's win style
[12:02] <meowbuntuce> dont know what it is but  perl-base= 5.10.0-19ubuntu1.1should be it
[12:02] <xenon_karmic> how to mount ntfs partition when booted ?
[12:02] <indus> ask ActionParsnip1 for help
[12:02] <indus> :)
[12:02] <jrib> !ntfs > xenon_karmic
[12:02] <theadmin> aLeSD: Hm?
[12:02] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: ^
[12:03] <LexR> !ntfs
[12:03] <indus> xenon_karmic: auto mounted i hear
[12:03] <kindofabuzz> when I put something in the Ubuntu One folder and it syncs, is that file still actually on my computer as well as the cloud?
[12:03] <AdvoWork> jrib, basically, x amount of files, i want to remove the oldest file out of them all
[12:03] <aLeSD> krishna: we will start another X session and we wil check the log file of that session ... ok ?
[12:03] <xenon_karmic> ok
[12:03] <jrib> !keyserver | gkey
[12:03] <krishna> aLeSD, whatever you say
[12:03] <aLeSD> lol
[12:03] <jrib> AdvoWork: same question... oldest with regard to what?  last modified?
[12:03] <aLeSD> krishna, open a terminal
[12:03] <LexR> yeah, about ntfs, jauny remmembered my password, and karmic always ask on every system restart and first use of the partition :)
[12:03] <kamil_sk> hi I just installed xubuntu 9.10 and have a problem with my ADSL model I have an error: "FATAL: Module ppp_generic not found." I think this module is missing but where can I download it? I aslo installed ubuntu 9.10 and also have the same error but also this message "Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded.
[12:03] <kamil_sk> RP-PPPoE plugin version 3.8p compiled against pppd 2.4.5" and there the model works. Can smb. help me pls?
[12:04] <AdvoWork> jrib, ahh yeah, basically, the file is a dumped file, so perhaps last created?
[12:04] <gkey> ubottu: I'm adding a new ppa but the keyserver times out
[12:04] <jrib> AdvoWork: ext filesystems don't store creation date, so that's not possible
[12:04] <krishna> aLeSD, ok i opened a terminal
[12:04] <indus> where is the list of ops
[12:04] <AdvoWork> jrib, oh, ok last modified then
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: whatever the name of the de file you have downloaded, us that instead of <deb>
[12:05] <tarvid> install gnome-alsamixer solved my problem
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: e.g.   sudo dpkg --force-all -i libperl-54.755.i386.deb
[12:05] <jrib> AdvoWork: you can have ls sort by modification time, then just grab the first (or last one) depending on the order and delete it
[12:05] <zamba> in what configuration file can i set so that one user will auto-logon?
[12:05] <krishna> alesd are you there ?
[12:05] <aLeSD> ta ddaaa
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: something like that, you will have the file on your system so can use the correct file name
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> !autologin | zamba
[12:06] <zamba> i know i can do it through the GUI, but how can i do it in a configuration file?
[12:06] <zamba> i need to roll it out on a set of computers
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> zamba: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutoLogin
[12:06] <indus> !cookie | ActionParsnip1
[12:07] <krishna> aLeSD, are you there
[12:07] <zamba> ActionParsnip1: as i said.. that's through the GUI on one computer.. i need to configure this on 60+ computers
[12:07] <ActionParsnip1> zamba: sure /etc/gdm/custom.conf    will let you set the autologin
[12:07] <aLeSD> krishna, ok let's start a Xsession and then you have to return back to your session and check what's going on
[12:07] <nicle> krishna: try this: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old && rm  etc/X11/xorg.conf && reboot
[12:07] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: i have tryed all but i get same serror no suchfile or dorectory
[12:07] <aLeSD> krishna, I will explain ... than do the stuffs
[12:07] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: we seem to be getting nowhere fast
[12:07] <aLeSD> krishna, run sudo startx -- :1
[12:07] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: then the directory your terminal is pointing at is not the same as where the deb file is
[12:07] <aLeSD> krishna, that will start another Xsession for the user root
[12:07] <jrib> AdvoWork: you could also use find, print the file's time and pass to sort
[12:08] <krishna> aLeSD, that command gave error
[12:08] <zamba> ActionParsnip1: custom.conf doesn't exist.. gdm.conf-custom? is that the one you mean?
[12:08] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: if you used firefoxes retarded default to download to the desktop, you will need to run: cd ~/Desktop    first, so the location of the terminal is the same as that of the file

[12:12] <aLeSD> krishna1: in the end I was stupid ... you could check the Xorg.0.log for your user session
[12:12] <aLeSD> :)

[12:14] <ActionParsnip1> xenon_karmic: you can use the appearence item in preferences to set visual affects to none
[12:14] <meowbuntuce> LexR: have you tryed to reinstall app

[12:15] <xenon_karmic> it is not.
[12:15] <xenon_karmic> i am doing it every time.
[12:15] <doruk> It normally does . curious
[12:15] <kindofabuzz> SingAlong, Inhibit Applet? is that what you're looking for?
[12:15] <xenon_karmic> if it helps - i installed compiz some time back.
[12:15] <SingAlong> kindofabuzz: n the power manager thing. that shows the battery icon

[12:15] <djzn> where do FSCK routine checks are logged in ubuntu ?
[12:15] <ActionParsnip1> xenon_karmic: you could uninstall all the compiz packages, that will get rig of them for good (unless you reinstall them) and save you some space
[12:15] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: i updated ubuntu to ubuntuCE from this http://ubuntuce.com/convert.htm
[12:15] <SingAlong> kindofabuzz: I'm on a netbook :)

[12:16] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: i did that and installed xchat
[12:16] <nayfe> Hi. I have a problem like this:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/rsyslog/+bug/453444 and there is written there is a fix or sth... but i got lost and not really understand what should I do. Can someone help?
[12:16] <kindofabuzz> SingAlong, oh. well that's a notification. preferneces>power management>General Tab check which one you want

[12:17] <SingAlong> kindofabuzz: I removed otifyOSD coz that was bugging me too much.
[12:17] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: i also used update manager thats where the problem happened i think
[12:17] <djzn> how frequently does fsck check the filesystem by default, and how to check the output of this check after the system booted (to see if there were any issues) ?
[12:17] <SingAlong> *notifyOSD
[12:17] <IpSe_DiXiT> ActionParsnip1: i got to the filesystem choice, xfs, reiserfs or ext3 ?
[12:17] <aLeSD> krishna1: I think that X decide to use 800x600 because it think that your monitor doen't support higher resolution
[12:17] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: why are you using unofficial repositorys, especially for stuff so system critical?
[12:17] <aLeSD> (II) intel(0): Not using default mode "1024x768" (hsync out of range)

[12:21] <indus> aLeSD: thats a crt resolution no
[12:21] <mattgirv>  aLeSD: Simply sounds like it hasn't autodetected your refresh rates properly
[12:21] <krishna1> aLeSD, i have a lcd
[12:21] <mattgirv> aLeSD: You might want to add them into your xorg.conf
[12:22] <ActionParsnip1> doruk: i tink if you change it in /usr/share/applications   in te relevant .desktop file, it will be used the way you want. Not sure though, worth a shot
[12:22] <aLeSD> krishna1: let's try to ask to the people that develop xorg ... don't u think ?

[12:26] <mattgirv> indus: Er right how is he going to use Gedit when he can't even start x :p
[12:26] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: this is how i installed the reop "wget -q http://ubuntuce.com/repos/Ubuntu_CE/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && wget -q http://ubuntuce.com/repos/Ubuntu_CE/apt/crosswire-launchpad-ppa.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo wget http://ubuntuce.com/repos/Ubuntu_CE/apt/sources.list.d/jaunty_i386.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntuce.list; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-ce"   how can i undo that
[12:26] <indus> mattgirv: he can , only has lower res
[12:26] <IpSe_DiXiT> the primary's partition's flag has to be activated or not?
[12:26] <legend2440> kuse: did you reboot after installing    nautilus-open-terminal?
[12:26] <mattgirv> indus: Ah okay, my bad.
[12:26] <krishna1> indus, it opened. what do edit now ? thanks in advance
[12:26] <indus> lilyshu: hi
[12:26] <mattgirv> must of been the other guy that had no screens found
[12:26] <kuse> legend2440: no, its a server, i dont want to reboot
[12:26] <indus> krishna1: let me see tht file, use paste
[12:27] <indus> god iam getting carpal tunnel syndrome
[12:27] <indus> lilyshu: hello
[12:27] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: i know, i saw your previous link
[12:27] <indus> lilyshu: is there anything else on the usb disk
[12:27] <krishna1> indus, i am in a root that got opened after aLeSD's comamnd.. so will it give same file as in my only username krishna ?
[12:27] <legend2440> kuse: ok well the right click menu entry  didnt show up until i rebooted
[12:27] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: its not an official repo so we cant support it
[12:27] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: how to uninstall then
[12:27] <SetiAmon> a strange bug has put strange E's on top of the text of menu's in firefox,any idea how to fix this?
[12:27] <meowbuntuce> ???
[12:27] <indus> krishna1: root? dont you have a display now?
[12:28] <oim> hi ı am using ubuntu 9.10 but menu is disappeared yesterday. panel is stil in screen ,go-home-applet icon is still on panel but there is no menu
[12:28] <krishna1> indus, i have.
[12:28] <yareckon> hi guys... is there a known issue where the upgrade_manager thinks you are already on karmic, when in fact you are not?
[12:28] <indus> krishna1: just paste it
[12:28] <lilyshu> indus : no theres nothing else left.
[12:28] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntuce.list; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get clean
[12:28] <kuse> legend2440: would be very strange not to be able to get them work without a reboot. Restarting a service or such
[12:28] <indus> lilyshu: so you tryin to boot from usb?
[12:28] <Tartaros> oim: rightclick on panel - "Add to Panel..."
[12:28] <mattgirv> yareckon: Make sure you have nothing Karmic relased in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:28] <yareckon> nope..
[12:29] <krishna1> indus, aLeSD gave a command like startx --1 or similar .. it opened root.
[12:29] <legend2440> kuse: yes there probably is a way around it but i dont know what it is  sorry
[12:29] <krishna1> indus, http://paste.ubuntu.com/314043/
[12:29] <yareckon> but I did try to upgrade last week, and it refused stating I had held an obsolete package or something
[12:29] <indus> krishna1: hmm
[12:29] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: you may also want to test with: sudo apt-get upgrade   to see what mess you have left to clean
[12:29] <leaf-sheep> yareckon: I saw an update recently -- update-manager-core.  Update/Upgrade your machine.  See if there are any new packages.
[12:29] <mattgirv> yareckon: Hm, so your sources pointed to Karmic at one point and you changed them back?
[12:30] <yareckon> so maybe the upgrade_manager puked out some temp files somewhere that is confusing it now
[12:30] <lilyshu> indus : yes, and when i choose install ubuntu, theres only _ beeping. no usplash
[12:30] <krishna1> yareckon, i got that too.. try your sources.list and replace all karmic with jaunty.. and got working for me.
[12:30] <yareckon> only during the upgrade manager run
[12:30] <Valentina> Why isn't sudo aptitude show php5 showing that php is installed when I have installed Ubuntu Server and LAMP?
[12:30] <yareckon> yeah, Im looking at my sources list right now, and no karmi there
[12:30] <indus> lilyshu: hmm do you get to the boot menu ?
[12:30] <indus> lilyshu: try creating a new usb disk with unetbootin
[12:31] <indus> !unetbootin | lilyshu
[12:31] <mattgirv> yareckon: yareckon: Try running 'sudo apt-get update' and rechecking Update Manager
[12:31] <indus> lilyshu: if you have the iso, create a boot able usb from windows also
[12:31] <krishna1> indus, shall i logout this root and get in my user account and then paste that file or what ?
[12:31] <indus> krishna1: its ok wait
[12:31] <yareckon> thanks, trying that
[12:32] <lilyshu> indus : ok i will try unetbootin on kubuntu. i dont have windows. sorry
[12:32] <indus> lilyshu: ya it has linux version also
[12:32] <yareckon> ok... thanks for the help
[12:32] <yareckon> figured it out
[12:33] <indus> krishna1: can u try gnome-display-properties commmand
[12:33] <mattgirv> yareckon: Okay, if it crops up again you may have to run 'dpkg --configure -a', more so if the update cancelled half way through
[12:33] <yareckon> it was a reference to karmic in another apt file... I had apt-pinned karmic really low
[12:33] <yareckon> to get the new meld
[12:33] <yareckon> I know that that is not supported, but there may be a few developer types who have that habit from debian :)
[12:34] <mattgirv> Yep I do the same in Deb, a few of my packages are grabbed from unstable on a testing machine
[12:34] <yareckon> so the upgrade manager removes third party repos, but doesn't think anyone is crazy enough to be mixing two versions of ubuntu
[12:34] <indus> krishna1: try this sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[12:35] <mattgirv> yareckon: You're probably best commenting them out and just uncommenting them as and when you need them
[12:35] <tga> howdy
[12:36] <tga> is there a way to do a minimal install with the desktop cd?
[12:36] <yareckon> thanks... I will try that... you guys' helpfulness is a great credit to the project
[12:36] <krishna1> indus, that command retuned no output ?
[12:36] <indus> krishna1: yea nvm
[12:37] <indus> krishna1: what is your graphics card
[12:37] <krishna1> indus, i dont have a graphics card.. i have the on board one that came with dual core
[12:37]  * tga is surprised the desktop cd doesn't have a 'minimal' option
[12:37] <indus> krishna1: ok intel then
[12:37] <krishna1> indus,  yes
[12:37] <indus> tga: minimal cd is separate download
[12:37] <krishna1> indus, ccommand to find the name ?
[12:38] <indus> krishna1: lspci
[12:38] <tga> indus: I know, it means I have to burn it though
[12:38] <krishna1> lspci | grep what ?
[12:38] <zvacet> tga: that way you will have to remove lot of packages isn't easier to do minimal install and then add what you want
[12:38] <krishna1> indus, what to add to lspci to get graphoc card name alone ?
[12:38] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: i am still unsure how to remove treh ubuntuce package can you help
[12:38] <indus> krishna1: nothing just lspci | grep vga
[12:38] <tga> zvacet: you're missing my point, what I want is precisely a minimal install, starting with the desktop cd
[12:39] <tga> no reason to have to download packages if I already have them on cd
[12:39] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: the package is a metapackage, you will have to check its contents and remove them if they have in fact being installed. persoanlly I dont think they have due to the dependancy mess
[12:39] <krishna1> indus, http://paste.ubuntu.com/314052/
[12:39] <meowbuntuce> ActionParsnip1: just a thought could it be a 9,04/9.10 issue not ubuntuCE as such
[12:39] <meowbuntuce> i onow when newer versions come out weird things happened
[12:39] <mattgirv> krishna1: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[12:40] <ActionParsnip1> meowbuntuce: not sure, maybe its a mix
[12:40] <indus> krishna1: try this xrandr --addmode VGA 1440*990
[12:40] <zvacet> tga: do minimal install and add CD in sources list that is another way I don't think there is minimal install opton on live CD
[12:40] <indus> krishna1: try this xrandr --addmode VGA 1440*900
[12:40] <tga> zvacet: yeah, that's too bad
[12:41] <indus> krishna1: try this xrandr --addmode VGA 1440x900 --rate 60
[12:41] <krishna1> indus, xrandr: cannot find output "VGA"

[12:42] <jmut> hi folks.     https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SkypeRecordingHowto     I read about Skype Call Recorder      here. does it mean that sources are checked and it's not some phony tool that does bad stuff as well as good stuff?

[12:44] <RealKillaz> Laptop screen + 19" monitor
[12:44] <indus> pjfry1: sudo apt-get update flashplugin-nonfree
[12:45] <napster> sassas: Most of us have the same... :)
[12:45] <RealKillaz> but I would like to switch the screen on which the panels are right now
[12:45] <indus> pjfry1: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:45] <coz_> anything on the flash issue in firefox?
[12:45] <coz_> still buttons etc cannot be accessed
[12:45] <RealKillaz> so instead of the panel showing on the laptop screen I would like to see them on my bigger screen
[12:45] <sassas> napster, so there is not a solution yet? my firefox used to put out segmentation fault until yesterday when it suddenly start working fine again :D
[12:46] <zvacet> pjfry1:  system>admin>software sources che
[12:46] <RealKillaz> do I make any sense?
[12:46] <napster> sassas: checked your alsa settings..?
[12:46] <sassas> yes, i have been in the alsa-mixer but cant get it to stop anyway =(
[12:46] <zvacet> pjfry1:  sorry system>admin>software sources> enable universe and multiverse ans reload
[12:47] <napster> sassas: And keep repeating your question, someone should know how to fix it...!

[12:52] <zvacet> batang_g:  sorry I don't know answer to that one but how do you try to install packages without internet
[12:52] <Laurent--> Hello
[12:52] <sassas> epinky, done!
[12:52] <Sam152> Dammit, does anyone have Wave invites?
[12:52] <zvacet> !hi| Laurent--
[12:53] <Laurent--> How do I format an external floppy drive?
[12:53] <epinky> sassas: look for a line that ends with "tsched=0"
[12:53] <felix> it's alwys better if you format your disk...and reinstall ubuntu all over again.
[12:53] <indus> Laurent--: wow external floppy?
[12:53] <indus> Laurent--: is ths a zip drive iomega?
[12:54] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: you should have /dev/fd0   if not, run: sudo modprobe floppy
[12:54] <batang_g> zvacet: i have tried running with live cd, and everything worked fine. but i really wanted to make the dual OS work for me because its faster.
[12:54] <Laurent-->  /dev/fd0 doesn't work
[12:54] <yareckon> isn't there a floppy formatting tool or something?
[12:54] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: what does:  dmeg | less -n 10    say when you insert it
[12:55] <indus> just right clicj and format
[12:55] <yareckon> gnome-floppy or somthing?
[12:55] <ActionParsnip1> !info gnome-floppy
[12:55] <ActionParsnip1> !find floppy
[12:55] <sassas> epinky, i cant find it =(
[12:55] <indus> man, you can right click and format floppies in ubuntu
[12:55] <Laurent--> I can't format floppy using the standard tool
[12:55] <yareckon> ah
[12:55] <Laurent--> It says: "can't find /dev/fd0"
[12:55] <epinky> sassas: it should be there tsched=0
[12:56] <moos3> anyone figure out on 9.10 how to fix the choppy audio in vbox?
[12:56] <yareckon> that might be the lack of the kernel module or somthing
[12:56] <indus> Laurent--: try gfloppy in terminal
[12:56] <Laurent--> I can read/write floppy using /media/disk, but i can't access one using /dev/fdx or /dev/sdx.
[12:56] <napster> moos3: Not only on vbox, but on real systems too...
[12:57] <Laurent--> Same error: I don't have the right to access /dev/fd0
[12:57] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: sudo fdformat /dev/fd0
[12:57] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: if you run: mount     you can see what device the floppy drive is
[12:57] <sassas> epinky, are you sure it should be in the defaul.pa file?
[12:57] <Laurent-->  /dev/sdc
[12:58] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: then replace that in the above command, the device will need to be unmounted first
[12:58] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: fine then use that
[12:58] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: sudo fdformat /dev/sdc1
[12:58] <epinky> sassas: check also in ~/.pulse/default.pa
[12:58] <ActionParsnip1> Laurent--: and it will format the floppy as long as you arte sure /dev/sdc1 is the floppy
[12:58] <delfick> Hi, on Ubuntu 9.10, nautilus 2.28.1, when I put python files in ~/.nautilus/python-extensions or /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/python they don't seem to be executed...... would anyone know what I can do try and figure out why (or am I even on the right track here ?)
[12:59] <Godfather_> hi
[12:59] <ActionParsnip1> delfick: are you marking them as executable with: chmod +x file
[12:59] <Godfather_> how can i start ubuntu 9.10 in console mode evertytime i boot?
[12:59] <moos3> napster: my audio is fine but in Vbox using a softphone for it nuts
[12:59] <Godfather_> the file /etc/inittab doesnt exist
[13:00] <moos3> I have to say ubuntu 9.10 so far is a  FAIL
[13:00] <Laurent--> Hmm... Still no formatting.
[13:00] <xrfang> hello, can I install ubuntu-one *client* on a server installation (i.e. withou Gnome and X)
[13:00] <Laurent--> But i have to go
[13:00] <Godfather_> moos3 why??
[13:00] <Godfather_> i'm very happy with it
[13:00] <preglow> my desktop computer has two sound cards, and they keep changing order in alsa's setup for each reboot i do, any way to fix this?
[13:00] <moos3> Stuff that worked in 9.04 no longer works
[13:01] <epinky> sassas: do you have this line? load-module module-hal-detect
[13:01] <moos3> and things that didn't work now work
[13:01] <ActionParsnip1> xrfang: i think if you just install ubuntuone-client it may allow cli access, you'll have to check its dependancies
[13:01] <Godfather_> moos3, let me doubt, maybe your fault, but anyway, you cant install previous verion
[13:01] <xrfang> ok, thanks ActionParsnip1
[13:01] <ActionParsnip1> xrfang: there is a seperate ubuntuone-client-gnome package which will no doubt need gnome/x
[13:02] <xrfang> ok
[13:02] <vasandgvd> can somebody help me with this problem? http://pastebin.com/d2fee9421
[13:02] <delfick> ActionParsnip1: it doesn't seem to make a difference
[13:02] <shiznebit> I think that we have a solution now (with a semi understanding of what's going
[13:02] <shiznebit> on).
[13:02] <shiznebit> It seems that the OMAP register handling the backlight brightness gets screwed
[13:02] <shiznebit> because of some noise. It's totally random, all units are not affected. And if
[13:02] <shiznebit> the board is removed from the case, the bugs almost doesn't occur any more.
[13:02] <FloodBot3> shiznebit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:02] <shiznebit> There will be a fix in the kernel pushed next week. It won't require any
[13:02] <thijs> Hi
[13:02] <SetiAmon> back
[13:02] <thijs> I've got a question, I installed ubuntu karmic, but i wonder if it's possible to run ubuntu studio next to this distro ?
[13:02] <SetiAmon> moos3: sound sucked for me (xfi) tried for ages to get the distortions/static out but eventually just gave up and went back to jaunty
[13:02] <moos3> Godfather_:This was  fresh install and stuff that has worked since 7.0 up until 9.04 worked fine until I did the 9.10 install
[13:02] <vasandgvd> or http://paste.ubuntu.com/314064/
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> thijs:  you could just install the apps that studio includes..
[13:03] <SetiAmon> moos3 what issues have you had
[13:03] <yareckon> well, that doesn't go so well... now upgrade-manager does want to upgrade me, but it informs me that jaunty -> karmic requires me to remove 277 packages, and upgrade 6.  I am a bit skeptical of those statistics
[13:03] <thijs> Dr_Willis, ok, where do i look those up?
[13:03] <moos3> SetiAmon: I couldn't get vbox work in jaunty for sound,
[13:03] <yareckon> to say the least
[13:03] <selkies> can i connect my phone (Nokia 7210 supernova) to internet thru ubuntu by bluetooth?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> thijs:  no idea  - i dont use studio.  Install what apps you need.
[13:03] <moos3> SetiAmon: my keyboard and video card for staters and bluetooth
[13:04] <moos3> they all worked in 9.04 but fail in 9.10
[13:04] <yareckon> is there a place where apt might be munged up in the background that I can clean up somehow?
[13:04] <thijs> Dr_Willis, ok, but i figured i'd try some music editing. However, will go look for a package list then
[13:04] <SetiAmon> moos3:I had a issue with vbox and sound in jaunty,spent awhile but figured it out.what was really hard is to get it to accept usb,my ipod in particular so i could use utorrent and itunes in vbox to set up my ipod.was cool,i killed all that when i installed 9.10,
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> thijs:  anything studio has - you can install on the normal ubuntu. since the 2 use the same repos/core
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> !studio
[13:05] <indus> moos3: what doesnt work
[13:05] <moos3> indus: please above
[13:05] <Godfather_> moos3 me too, i've recently installed vbox with 9.10, and no sound problem
[13:05] <yareckon> is this like a 2 stage upgrader, where at first it removes and upgrades the upgrade program itself?
[13:05] <iceroot> how to copy files and keep the owner?
[13:05] <indus> moos3: what video card
[13:05] <moos3> indus: ati readon HD 2400 XT
[13:06] <indus> moos3: yeah so is it working now ?
[13:06] <moos3> GodFather_: Like I said fresh install and vbox 3.0.10 and its fail
[13:06] <SetiAmon> also
[13:06] <indus> moos3: that card works fine in 9.10 with the proprietary drivers
[13:07] <indus> moos3: also, if it fails, its really a driver issue of the manufacturer
[13:07] <thijs> Dr_Willis, yeah, i found the package list, just figured, i haven't exactly experienced stable usage so far, so i would need to backup my current state
[13:07] <yareckon> so... would I be better served by just doing a debian-like edit of my sources.list and then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade?
[13:07] <SetiAmon> x-fi xtreme music works out of the box but it sucks,distortions,static,doing everything i coudl to fix it didn't work.jaunty fresh installed again and now everything is working
[13:07] <yareckon> any advice?
[13:07] <moos3> indus: no correctly, I have to had about 300 lines of code to the driver to get it work on one display my second display doesn't work right
[13:07] <seeker> how to install proprietary drivers in karmic (the cd contains only exe files)
[13:07] <seeker> for webcam
[13:07] <indus> moos3: 300 lines? which driver
[13:07] <moos3> indus: no it doesn't work with the proprietary drivers when using multiple displays
[13:08] <moos3> the Ati driver
[13:08] <indus> moos3: yeah thats true
[13:08] <indus> moos3: you added? what do you mean
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> seeker:  ive never seen extra webcam drivers just for linux. ch3ck out the !webcam factoid perhaps
[13:08] <Dr_Willis> !webcam
[13:08] <indus> seeker which webcam
[13:09] <seeker> zecom
[13:09] <moos3> yeah Had to add a bunch of hacks to remove 90% of the frame buffer issues that wasn't present in the 9.04 and those lines removed the locking up on the virtual extend display
[13:09] <seeker> sorry - zeebronics
[13:09] <indus> so do you have a question?
[13:10] <seeker> yes - how to install driver (which is in exe files) in karmic
[13:10] <indus> seeker what is the output of lsusb
[13:10] <indus> seeker in a terminal
[13:10] <indus> seeker type lsusb
[13:11] <indus> moos3: so what is the question you have
[13:11] <MD-11> hi folks! a question:  i have openssh runing nice on my home desktop. What i want to do is to run openssh on startup thru a script. I have been reading some stuf about rc.d and others. I would be glad if someone could explain me what are the rc files, and how can i do it with openssh! (as u can see i am new to linux)
[13:11] <moos3> indus: no my question was about getting smooth sound in vbox
[13:11] <moos3> if anyone has been able to
[13:11] <indus> ok
[13:11] <Dr_Willis> MD-11:  if you installed the openssh service from the package manager it should allredy be auto-running at boot time
[13:12] <indus> moos3: have you tried the latest amd driver btw?
[13:12] <yareckon> MD-11, openssh server should already run at boot
[13:12] <indus> from site
[13:12] <seeker> done - but how do i paste it here
[13:12] <indus> !paste | seeker
[13:12] <moos3> indus: what for sound?
[13:12] <seeker> it is not copieng
[13:12] <indus> moos3: amd display
[13:12] <yareckon> you may need to isntall openssh-server, not just the client
[13:12] <moos3> indus: yes that one I'm running with my 300 line hack
[13:12] <indus> moos3: how can you hack the proprietary drivr?
[13:13] <moos3> I decompiled the driver and patched my hack
[13:13] <moos3> indus: theres tools for doing those types of things you know
[13:13] <indus> moos3: decompiled? a closed source driver? bull
[13:13] <xrfang> is there a commandline tool for the server edition to test response time of different mirror locations?
[13:13] <MD-11> yareckon: well i did it , but it doesn't seems like! because when i issue ssh start from the command line it shows that openssh is starting..so if that is correct wouldnt have a reason for ssh restart (if starts , also restarts an already running version)
[13:13] <Shambat> I'm purchasing a sheevaplug that is running an Ubuntu 8.04 ARM version ... I'm looking for a USB wifi adapter to use that is likely to work for this setup. Are there any brands that is especially linux friendly?
[13:14] <indus> moos3: ill believe you anyway
[13:14] <MD-11> yareckon: i installed openssh-server
[13:14] <moos3> indus: not bull as its completely possible as thats how about 90% of the opensource drivers are made
[13:14] <lao5> sucker?.
[13:14] <batang_g> i have a problem with ubuntu 9.10. whenever i install packages like g++, hardware drivers, the message "Please insert cd ubuntu 9.10.." or something like that.. but when i insert the installation cd (which created a dual OS), it says the same thing.. i can't connect to internet because i cant install the wireless drivers.. can someone help me?
[13:14] <indus> moos3: without testing with appropriate hardware to reverse engineer, its not possible, also its useless
[13:14] <moos3> indus: that issue isn't the Video anymore
[13:15] <moos3> the problem is the Audio in vbox
[13:15] <indus> anyways its off topic
[13:15] <moos3> indus: focus on the audio issue with vbox
[13:16] <suckeve> #videopimp
[13:16] <indus> Seeker`: did u paste
[13:16] <rd> my klamav update option is grayed out ,how can i fix it
[13:17] <moos3> the choppy audio make talking on my cellphone in the middle of no where sound crystal clear
[13:17] <Dr_Willis> rd:  run the gui as root, or just run the freshclam command to update as root
[13:17] <indus> Seeker`: copy it there and write yor name, then click send
[13:17] <rd> Dr_Willis:did them both
[13:17] <rd> Dr_Willis:did them both, but still its grayed out
[13:17] <yareckon> MD-11, you can find out the name of the process that openssh starts by using  ps aux | grep [s]sh
[13:17] <malestine> I have a laptop with one hardrive. It has vista 64 and ubuntu 64 on two partitions, same hardrive. I have another machine, mint linux which I want to be a file server. Mint wont talk to ubuntu unless vista is booted on the network. As soon as I connect to ubuntu though the laptop shuts down. Ubuntu wont talk to mint if they are both booted on the network.If I boot Vista, it shows an icon for Mint but labels it as unrecognised.I have a
[13:17] <malestine> laptop with one hardrive. It has vista 64 and ubuntu 64 on two partitions, same hardrive. I have another machine, mint linux which I want to be a file server. Mint wont talk to ubuntu unless vista is booted on the network. As soon as I connect to ubuntu though the laptop shuts down. Ubuntu wont talk to mint if they are both booted on the network.If I boot Vista, it shows an icon for Mint but labels it as unrecognized.
[13:18] <yareckon> check to see if the same process is running at boot and after you manually start that service
[13:18] <Dr_Willis> rd:  could be its up to date
[13:18] <indus> any ops here?
[13:18] <xukun> Shambat, can I ask you what is it one can do with the sheevaplug?
[13:18] <MD-11> yareckon: Ok could you give me also an explanation about the rc.d files? what are them actually?
[13:19] <rd> Dr_Willis:still shoudnt it have the option to check ?
[13:19] <yareckon> the rc files are links to startup scripts in /etc/ini.d/
[13:19] <yareckon> the rc levels are starting up , shutting down and in between
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> MD-11:  check google for 'sysv init' tutorials :) they are fancy scripts. but ubuntu is slowly changeing over to the UPSTART init systemm
[13:19] <lupine_85> isn't it all "service start" and the like these days?
[13:19] <Shambat> xukun: I'm going to use it to monitor the wifi accessabiloty in our office buildings
[13:19] <naser> hi to all
[13:19] <yareckon> debian / ubuntu don't jhave special meetings to tthe middle levels
[13:19] <Dr_Willis> MD-11:  so a lot of things in the sysv guides/tutorials dont always apply to ubuntu
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> when in doubt use the 'service' command - yes lupine_85
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> :)
[13:20] <naser> plz help me to find some server to download the applications for ubuntu
[13:20] <lupine_85> it's totally crazy
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> naser:   you mean your package manager is not working right?
[13:20] <indus> naser: all applications are available from add/remove
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> lupine_85:   I find the service command easier to rembner/use : the /etc/init.d/somthing
[13:21] <yareckon> yeah, we are in the middle of tossing that system out, so it is of great value to learn it deeply today, but maybe not soon
[13:21] <naser> its work i wanna find some applications for my ubunto like codecs
[13:21] <lupine_85> I guess it's a case of what you're used to
[13:21] <naser> for my player
[13:21] <indus> naser: its also auto download
[13:21] <indus> naser: just run a file and it will find codecs for u
[13:21] <naser> not working download
[13:21] <mka> xmalestine: are you using wifi?
[13:21] <malestine> yes
[13:21] <indus> naser: what do you mean not working
[13:21] <bazhang> naser, the package is ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:21] <mka> malestine: are you using wifi?
[13:21] <Dr_Willis> lupine_85:  the service command works with the services using upstart or the ones using the older sysv. and its been in ubuntu for at least the last 2 releases.
[13:21] <lupine_85> Dr_Willis: mm, and I'm still not used to it. and neither are any of my other distributions ;)
[13:22] <mka> malestine: ok, are you doing a network boot?
[13:22] <rd> i updated my clamav virus database but clamtk still says vius database not found
[13:22] <malestine> no
[13:22] <Dr_Willis> lupine_85:  redhat and its varaits also use 'service' command i recall
[13:22] <mka> malestine: what network do you want to setup? ad-hoc?
[13:23] <yareckon> god, my apt is soo borked
[13:23] <indus> naser: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[13:23] <malestine> vpn with mint linux 7 as server
[13:23] <yareckon> it thinks it needs to throw out all my packages to upgrade me to karmic
[13:23] <naser> i have ubuntu 8.10
[13:24] <naser> and my aplications didn't work
[13:24] <indus> naser: which applications ,please be specific
[13:24] <naser> for example i wanna see somw file in avi format
[13:24] <yareckon> same deal whether I use upgrade manager or apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:24] <messiah> hello, i have just installed xubuntu and i can't see and write my ntfs partitions. what should i install? ntfs-3g and ntfs-configuration???? i can't remember well

[13:26] <Dr_Willis> out of date virus data bases are a security risk perhaps?
[13:26] <perpetualrabbit> Multiseat: has the new GDM made this impossible? Not talking about multihead, but multiseat, as in N users using a mouse, keyboard, monitor each, all connected to the same machine.

[13:27] <malestine> I also have hamachi installed starting on boot
[13:27] <indus> clamav sucks

[13:28] <philsf> In Jaunty I used to set my keyboard settings in /etc/default/console-setup, but it's being ignored now in Karmic, both for console and X. I need to use setxkbmap everytime I login and also everytime I switch to the console. How can I set my keyboard variant permanently now?
[13:28] <perpetualrabbit> Help, anyone: Multiseat in Karmic?
[13:28] <coz_> tom___,  well opening nautilus with sudo is not going to make it open that way all th e time   when you go to Places/Home  does it also not use the gtk2 theme?
[13:28] <Dr_Willis> philsf:  i noticed a setting for that on the GDM login..but ive never used it. :) that may be just for gdm
[13:28] <aneesh1> hi all i am using ubuntu karmic . While I mount my windows partitions it create a folder with strange name like 'AB090940HHG6767' in /media. In jaunty it was fine with creating a folder with name 'disk-1' . But karmic create folder with strange long name. Please help me to solve it
[13:29] <tom___> coz_: you mean when i open a folder via "places/home? "  yepp.. i have the same problem there with nautilus not using the gtk2 theme
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> aneesh1:  thatsz using the UUID of the drive/filesystem
[13:29] <philsf> Dr_Willis, setting in etc/console-setup used to be a unified way of configuring the keyboard for both the console and X
[13:29] <fasteddie> from a default Karmic install, where is the xorg.conf file stored?
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> aneesh1:  add a proper fstab entry to mount it elsewhere
[13:29] <philsf> Dr_Willis, or so I thought
[13:29] <mka> malestine: I had to go, sorry
[13:30] <Dr_Willis> philsf:  no idea i never have to mess with that
[13:30] <shal3r> Is there any way to install alsa without "brltty" dependency?
[13:30] <malestine> I'm just going to go into synaptic and install everything samba related
[13:30] <philsf> Dr_Willis, should I ask in #ubuntu-x?
[13:30] <tom___> coz_:  its not only the theme ..  also  the icons and just everything...
[13:31] <foxy_mefisto> fasteddie: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:31] <coz_> tom___,  that;s odd... is this an upgrade from jaunty or a fresh install?
[13:31] <messiah> Dr_Willis, i re-installed xubuntu due to my problem with static IP, and i can't see again my NTFS partitions; which was the things i had to install? ntfs-3g and ntfs-configuration???? from terminal or sypnatic or packages normal program?
[13:31] <tom___> fresh install coz_
[13:31] <rdz> is there a way to configure how gnome-settings-daemon controls audio volume? i think, it controled an alsamixer channel in earlier versions of ubuntu, while it controls the pulseaudio default output today. is there a way to make it control the alsa master channel again?
[13:31] <tom___> coz_: it used to work in the beginning though...
[13:31] <aneesh1> Dr_Willis: I need to show my windows partitions as separate  drives when i click computer  icon on the desktop. is there any way for that?
[13:31] <fasteddie> foxy: i had a look there, but to no avail!
[13:31] <coz_> tom___,  yikes ....even after a reboot this continues to occur?
[13:32] <coz_> tom___,  or even a restart of x
[13:32] <tom___> coz_: that's right :)
[13:32] <foxy_mefisto> fasteddie: sure you typed X and not x ?
[13:32] <messiah>  i re-installed xubuntu due to my problem with static IP, and i can't see again my NTFS partitions; which was the things i had to install? ntfs-3g and ntfs-configuration???? from terminal or sypnatic or packages normal program?
[13:33] <coz_> tom___,   ok this is puzzling then    unless you some how managed to log in as root
[13:33] <Valentina> Why is Ubuntu Server + LAMP not showing that php is installed running sudo aptitude show php5?
[13:33] <llutz> !ntfs-3g | messiah
[13:33] <tom___> coz_:  hold on... I am just trying what will happen if I create a new user....   with a clean home directory...
[13:33] <coz_> tom___,  ok let me know if that helps

[13:35] <messiah> llutz, i have the ntfs-3g and i can't see my ntfs partitions
[13:35] <heroid> hi
[13:35] <Phurl> from cpan
[13:35] <Phurl> but it fails
[13:35] <heroid> i havea  problem with shipit
[13:35] <fasteddie> foxy: yeah, pretty sure. Nothing inside /etc/X11/... Nothing even with "sudo find / | grep xorg.conf"
[13:35] <heroid> hey Phurl
[13:35] <Phurl> heroid, fol shqip
[13:35] <shal3r> Any ideas about this error? - http://pastebin.ca/1663369
[13:35] <heroid> haha
[13:35] <ikonia> Phurl: have you looked if there is a packaged version
[13:35] <heroid> im requesting CD's since a year
[13:35] <heroid> and they never sent me one
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  install/run ntfs-config and if the filesystems where unmounted uncleanly by windows you may want to check them in windows first and properly shut down windows
[13:35] <heroid> only the first time i requested one it happened
[13:35] <Phurl> ikonia, well it looks like there are problems with Gtk2
[13:35] <coz_> tom___,  so working now?
[13:36] <Phurl> the Gtk1.2 was discontinued
[13:36] <ikonia> Phurl: but is there a gtk2 package in ubuntu repos for perl
[13:36] <heroid> Phurl: use gNs
[13:36] <ActionParsnip1> yo yo yo
[13:36] <foxy_mefisto> fasteddie: try "locate xorg.conf"
[13:36] <Phurl> ikonia, but the other tools all use gtk
[13:36] <Phurl> and they dont work
[13:36] <messiah> Dr_Willis, before i re-installed xubuntu i could see them; i had something in settings like "tool configuration NTFS"; i don't have windows in my computer, just Xubuntu
[13:37] <indus> Seeker`: hello?
[13:37] <ikonia> Phurl: I'm not saying dont use it - I'm saying is there an ubuntu packaged version of the product you want in the repos ?
[13:37] <indus> Seeker`: what happened with your paste
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  install/run ntfs-config then and see if it adds them to the fstab proplery
[13:37] <heroid> Phurl:  left
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  try mounting them manually with ntfs-3g command also
[13:37] <fasteddie> foxy: the only result was a man page » /usr/share/man/man5/xorg.conf.5.gz
[13:37] <heroid> hes back
[13:37] <messiah> how can i run ntfs-config? :$
[13:37] <heroid> what happend Phurl?
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  type the command at a shell. :)
[13:37] <coz_> tom___,  is that working now?>
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  run it as root i think
[13:38] <Phurl> heroid, i saw you were trying to hack my account
[13:38] <heroid> what?
[13:38] <messiah> Dr_Willis, can't you tell the command please
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> leaving irc makes you safer>
[13:38] <heroid> noo
[13:38] <foxy_mefisto> ntfs-config appears in the menu as something like "NTFS configuration tool"
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  the command IS 'ntfs-config'
[13:38] <iceroot> i want to mount a nfs with the option "no_root_squash" where should i put that option? cant find anything usefull    mount -t nfs ip /media/nas

[13:38] <hadean> hi
[13:38] <heroid> im not making praks on you Phurl
[13:38] <Phurl> heroid, i sent you a mail
[13:38] <llutz> iceroot: /etc/exports
[13:39] <Phurl> heroid, then you got hacked
[13:39] <paissad_> hi all
[13:39] <hadean> i made an shscript and using a key i wanna call it. whats the command ??
[13:39] <ikonia> Phurl: heroid please stop messing around
[13:39] <tom___> coz_:  yepp everything is working using a clean home directory...   and I found out somethingelse that#s rather funny:  if I use nautilus  with sudo it uses my gtk2 theme (the human defualt theme...)
[13:39] <iceroot> llutz: no other way?
[13:39] <heroid> ok sorry
[13:39] <paissad_> can someone help me about a script init.d
[13:39] <paissad_> http://pastebin.com/m1fc61da6
[13:39] <coz_> tom___,  out of curiosity ....did you use your jaunty home directory for this install?
[13:39] <llutz> iceroot: since it's a server-option, no (afaik)
[13:40] <mirco> Hi all, I've a Sun-X4150 running hardy. Prob is I've found a PCI-Passthrough bug with my SCSI-adaptor which is used in my BackupPC DomU to connect to the tape... Now I'ld like to test the karmic xen kernel but can't find it...
[13:40] <messiah> Dr_Willis, what is the name of the package of "GParted"?
[13:40] <tom___> that's right coz_  ... although I tried to delete all hidden configuration files with a "."  in the beginning to "simulate" a clean install
[13:40] <Phurl> ikonia, no messing around. this is for real. when i registered my nick it told me :  1 failed login since last login. Last failed attempt from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>on Nov 09 13:06:15 2009
[13:40] <foxy_mefisto> fasteddie: a new install of karmic won't have a xorg.conf http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1221226
[13:40] <iceroot> llutz: ok, thx
[13:40] <coz_> tom___,  ok this makes sense now...
[13:40] <ikonia> Phurl: talk to freenode in #freenode then
[13:40] <yareckon> anyone know why apt would be freaking out on me and not recognizing that there are karmic packages newer than my jaunty packages duing an upgrade?
[13:40] <shal3r> After update to 9.10, i'm getting [Kernel Panic: unable to mount...] with new 2.6.31-14-generic kernel, but old "2.6.28-16-generic" works well. UUID for both kernels are same in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:40] <yareckon> take deskbar-applet
[13:41] <heroid> yes i should use tork for my Pranks
[13:41] <coz_> tom___,  yes apparenlty here also when running nautilus with sudo it does indeed use the gtk2 theme
[13:41] <clearscreen> paissad_: I'm not familiar _at all_ with shell scripts, but that's the first time you stop using " for those variables
[13:41] <iceroot> llutz: but /etc/exports  gives the option for my client? the server is a icy box, so i can put the option in /etc/exports  and mount from the icy box with no_root_squash?
[13:41] <hadean> i made an shscript and using a keyshortcut i wanna call it. whats the command ??
[13:41] <yareckon> synaptic apt and upgrade manager think that 2.26 is both the isntalled and is the newest available
[13:41] <coz_> tom___,  the theme must also be located in the  root/themes folder as well
[13:41] <tom___> coz_:  do you know where the configuration files of nautilus are located? maybe it helps if I just delete them..
[13:41] <hadean> i mean is there a command that takes a command, runs it in a terminal, and closes it again?
[13:41] <paissad_> clearscreen, which variables ?
[13:41] <yareckon> but if you look in packages.gz or use apt-cache showpkg, I can see that 2.28 is actually in karmic
[13:42] <paissad_> clearscreen, and why ?
[13:42] <clearscreen> paissad_: "...--chdir "$CONFIG_DIR" --exec $DAEMON $OPTIONS"
[13:42] <llutz> iceroot: you have to put it into export of your icy-box
[13:42] <yareckon> why is the calculation of upgrade weirding out?
[13:42] <lupine_85> yareckon: apt-cache policy shows...?
[13:42] <hudo> hi, I like to play ape-files with totem
[13:42] <coz_> tom___,  well.. if you really wanted to reset everything I would go with  sudo rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity   then restart X
[13:42] <iceroot> llutz: hm, i dont know if there is something like that, only found a web-interface
[13:42] <coz_> tom___,  understand that is going to reset everything to defaults
[13:42] <clearscreen> paissad_: as I said, I have no experience with shell scripts, but I'm seeing a lack of coherence between those two usages of variables
[13:42] <hudo> seems that there is no appropiate plugin or codec. Any ideas ?
[13:42] <CapeFear> hi
[13:42] <paissad_> clearscreen, ok
[13:42] <yareckon> arg!!!
[13:43] <messiah> Dr_Willis, would you advice me to install wicd and delete NM?
[13:43] <yareckon> thanks lupine
[13:43] <coz_> hudo,   try either mplayer or vlc
[13:43] <lupine_85> :)
[13:43] <llutz> iceroot: no ssh-access?
[13:43] <Lupine> wrong Lupine
[13:43] <yareckon> never again
[13:43] <Lupine> that guy needs to change his nic ;)
[13:43] <CapeFear> how long should the ubuntu 9.10 installation take? it took me 20 minutes before it said "resize operation failure"
[13:43] <messiah> llutz, would you advice me to install wicd and delete NM?
[13:43] <clearscreen> paissad_: (in other words, I *think* but i am not *sure* that you should put quotes around $DAEMON and $OPTIONS)
[13:43] <lupine_85> jeeeeu
[13:43] <lupine_85> heeeey*
[13:44] <CapeFear> Tartaros :)
[13:44] <lupine_85> I've been lupine_85 since 2001
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  i have no issues with network manager,  and wicd also worked for me last i tried it.
[13:44] <lupine_85> :p
[13:44] <yareckon> not since 85?
[13:44] <paissad_> clearscreen, everything's ok now, i 've just added -- before $OPTIONS
[13:44] <Lupine> I've been Lupine since 1999
[13:44] <lupine_85> nah, I was born then
[13:44] <llutz> messiah: wicd? no clue about that. use ifupdown and be happy
[13:44] <clearscreen> paissad_: ok :) nevermind what I said then :P
[13:44] <Pici> !ot
[13:44] <tom___> coz_: hmm.....  and there is nothing nautilus-specific? to reset just nautilus itself?
[13:44] <Lupine> born in 76
[13:44] <Lupine> I win
[13:44]  * lupine_85 stubbornly keeps his
[13:44] <messiah> Dr_Willis, you use the two of them?
[13:44] <hadean> i made an shscript and using a keyshortcut i wanna call it. whats the command that takes a command and runs it in a terminal without opening one?
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> CapeFear:  resizeing is not even starting the install process..   I alwyas resize the windows partitions uxing windows tools myself.
[13:44] <iceroot> llutz: no :(
[13:44] <Lint01> I've just installed Ubuntu but I have no login manager
[13:44] <messiah> llutz, i have tryed many things and i can't have my static IP
[13:44] <paissad_> clearscreen, what you said was good too, ... "" are for preserving spaces
[13:44] <jacquesdupontd> hi
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> messiah:  ive USED  both..  I have no need for wicd
[13:45] <CapeFear> Dr_Willis, so you create space for ubuntu under windows?
[13:45] <jacquesdupontd> i'm trying to make a usb HDD a bootable live cd, not a usb pen drive
[13:45] <yareckon> (L)upine should have case sensitive irc watching on :)
[13:45]  * lupine_85 uses wicd over NM because it works for him, whereas NM tends not to
[13:45] <cankoy> hadean: visit #bash
[13:45] <jacquesdupontd> i have the usb pen drive creatad with usb creator
[13:45] <llutz> messiah: deactivate nm, setup your /etc/network/interfaces, done (man 5 interfaces)
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> CapeFear:  i resze the hard drive and leave part UNALLOCATED thats where i let the ubuntu installer install to/partition
[13:45] <fasteddie> foxy: Thanks! I read about the Xorg -configure option, and tried it, but was just curious if it existed by default. Cheers
[13:46] <beachdaze> how can I find which usb port a device is plugged into?
[13:46] <messiah> llutz, i did that, and worked until i turn off my computer; when i turn on my comptuer it becomes reset
[13:46] <jacquesdupontd> is there a way to copy my usb pen drive exactly the same on my usb hard disk
[13:46] <lupine_85> beachdaze: lsusb will give you a bus:port:etc identifier - it's not too helpful
[13:46] <messiah> llutz, and i lose my changes, i mean, i don't have itnernet when i turn it on, and i have to delete what i wrote there
[13:46] <llutz> messiah: then you havent deactivated nm
[13:46] <CapeFear> Dr_Willis: when you install ubuntu this way (resizing the partitions under windows), can you do it automatically?
[13:46] <messiah> llutz lol, how can i desactivate it?
[13:46] <jacquesdupontd> do someone understand ?
[13:46] <messiah> llutz, maybe that is the key! :D
[13:46] <Lint01> I've just installed Ubuntu but I have no login manager, what happening?!
[13:46] <llutz> messiah: apt-get remove it
[13:46] <beachdaze> lupine_85, /sbin/lsusb is empty.  has it moved in 9.10?
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> CapeFear:  Ubuntu can automatically partiion the unallocated space as needed making a / and swap partitions
[13:47] <jacquesdupontd> cause i've tried to copy past but it doesn't boot on the usb hard disk
[13:47] <messiah> llutz, i did that, and i lost forever my connection for internet, because of that i re-installed xubuntu
[13:47] <lupine_85> beachdaze: /usr/sbin/lsusb is an executable you run
[13:47] <jacquesdupontd> i may have to make it bootable
[13:47] <CapeFear> Dr_Willis great... could you please point me to the program that you use for resizing?
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> CapeFear:  vista has one built in
[13:47] <llutz> messiah: ifupdown works since ages and is well documented. it will work for you too
[13:47] <beachdaze> lupine_85, OH..thanks
[13:47] <CapeFear> Dr_Willis i'm on xp pro s
[13:47] <CapeFear> pro se*
[13:47] <lupine_85> ifupdown has some naaaasty bugs
[13:47] <messiah> llutz, i really did that by many tutos
[13:48] <lupine_85> more than good enough for wired networking though
[13:48] <llutz> messiah: maybe make sure to have a configured interfaces-file before removing nm
[13:48] <jacquesdupontd> is someone following what i'm saying ?
[13:48] <Lint01> I've just installed Ubuntu but I have no login manager, how to fix it dammit
[13:48] <llutz> lupine_85: less bugs than nm
[13:48] <lupine_85> I'd not like to get counting
[13:49] <Valentina> I'm trying to install php5-cli but get this error: php5-mysql: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6) but 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.1 is to be installed. libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6) but 5.2.10.dfsg.1-2ubuntu6.1 is to be installed
[13:49] <yareckon> Lint01, you could try not swearing, but apt-get install gdm *may* help
[13:49] <lupine_85> ifupdown isn't even actively maintained in debian any more - and they depend on it. maintainer seems to have gone AWOL
[13:49] <batang_g> i have a problem with ubuntu 9.10. whenever i install packages like g++, hardware drivers, the message "Please insert cd ubuntu 9.10.." or something like that.. but when i insert the installation cd (which created a dual OS), it says the same thing.. i can't connect to internet because i cant install the wireless drivers.. can someone help me?
[13:49] <Valentina> php5-cli seems to use another version of php than LAMP does. What to do?
[13:50] <yareckon> batang_g, I'm having a flashback
[13:50] <mirco> batang_g how about removing the cd part from sources.list
[13:50] <trasktrojanek> How can I downgrade to a lower version of notify-osd in Karmic?
[13:50] <ariqs> the search feature in ubuntu doesn't work right... it doesn't find things I know exists. What's the simple command to use in terminal that would be like dos dir /s filename.file
[13:50] <yareckon> someone told you to uncheck the cd option in your software sources
[13:50] <Shambat> is there a seperate channel for Ubuntu ARM?
[13:50] <CapeFear> Dr_Willis what's the name of the resize program on vista?
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> ariqs:  the locate command uses a database that gets regenerated every day
[13:51] <Lint01> I've installed this karmic shit, but neither gdm not kdm are working, WTF?!
[13:51] <davdm2010> hi all. I am trying to share two folders between two machines running Ubuntu on the same network. Could someone explain to me how it is done? I am sure I am missing the obvious.
[13:51] <Ben64> ariqs: find | grep -i file
[13:51] <mirco> batang_g check the device which should hold the cd maybe the link changed...
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> ariqs:  use the updatedb command to force it to update
[13:51] <lupine_85> trasktrojanek: you should be able to install a different major version alongside the minor one. otherwise, if it's still available, apt-get install <package>=<version>
[13:51] <bazhang> Lint01, watch the language
[13:51] <lupine_85> s/minor/current/
[13:51] <ariqs> thankyou Dr_Willis, Ben64
[13:51] <twinkie_addict> you probly selected loging automaticly

[13:52] <jacquesdupontd> please what makes a usb hard disk bootable as a live cd ?
[13:52] <mc_scRAT1> hi all. q: is there an easy way to make gui to a console app?
[13:52] <jacquesdupontd> i thought the file would be enough
[13:52] <jacquesdupontd> can't someone listen to me it makes 3 hours i'm on it
[13:52] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  use unetbootin, or usb-disk-creator, or inzxtall grub2 and make it bootable
[13:52] <Valentina> Ubuntu Server + LAMP seem to use an older version of PHP than is avaiable in aptitude. How do I do this?
[13:52] <yareckon> jacquesdupontd, that is a compex question
[13:52] <yareckon> use unetbootin
[13:52] <yareckon> listen to the Dr
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:   usb-disk-cretor and unetbootin make it easy to make a cd to a live usb drive
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> grub2 can also boot iso files :) for some distros
[13:53] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, thx i know it and i wouldn't come here if usb-disk-creator would work but they only work for usb pen drive not for usb har disk of 250 gb
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:   unetbootin can. :)
[13:54] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  i set up grub2 to boot an iso file on my portable 200gb hd - for easy installing
[13:54] <batang_g> micro, thanks, i'll try that
[13:54] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, i already made a usb pen drive with a live cd of xubuntu .iso and i' would like to exactly copy the file of my pen drive and try to boot then on the hdd
[13:54] <mirco> How about xen3.4 in karmic is it available via? apt
[13:54] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  try the dd command i guess.. but that will be goofy.
[13:54] <ActionParsnip1> !info xen
[13:54] <DigitalKiwi> jacquesdupontd: hi
[13:55] <DigitalKiwi> i was just looking for you
[13:55] <mirco> !info xen
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  or read up on syslinux, and copy all files to the HD. and run syslinux on it to make it bootable
[13:55] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, i have the exact files needed on the pen drive that works then i just need it to be bootable, you know i don't think grub is installed on the pendrive even
[13:55] <mc_scRAT> Hi all again. I was suddenly out, but shall repeat my question: is there an easy way to make a front-end application (simply a gui) to a console utility?
[13:55] <yareckon> lupine_85, thanks, that fixed it.
[13:55] <jacquesdupontd> ok
[13:55] <mirco> info xen
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  use grub or syslinux to make it bootable and make proper config files to boot it
[13:55] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, how to run syslinux on it ?
[13:55] <visik7> anyone with a radeon 4670 ?
[13:55] <DigitalKiwi> link looks cool, though I don't like most of its choices for distros (backtrack was the only one I cared for on first glance)
[13:55] <malestine> What is the difference between ubuntu 9.04 and mint linux 7?
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  with the syslinux command and th eproper options. Read up on syslinux - its worth learning all about
[13:56] <visik7> malestine: preinstalled common packages that usually you'll install later
[13:56] <bazhang> malestine, lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:56] <mirco> damn it, Actionparsnip1 how can I see the inof's you mentioned...
[13:56] <trasktrojanek> lupine_85, do you know how I might find past versions? I'm trying notify-osd=0.9.9-0ubuntu1 and many variations thereof, using the same number, but still can't get it.
[13:56] <llutz> mc_scRAT: tcl/tk
[13:56] <lupine_85> trasktrojanek: they'll be in previous release package repos
[13:56] <lupine_85> you're probably trying to do something broken though
[13:56] <Lint01> can any-fscking-one tell me why the hell login manager is broken in karmic damned release CD
[13:57] <DigitalKiwi> !language | Lint01
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> Lint01:  its not broken on the 5+ installs ive done.
[13:57] <TuxWork> hey guys, trying to upgrade my workstation to Karmic, but it doesn't see the new release, no matter what I try
[13:57] <TuxWork> how would I force an upgrade?
[13:57] <Pici> Lint01: You need to provide more information, what entails 'broken' on your computer?
[13:57] <lupine_85> hell 'n damnation is very family-friendly... according to the established church ;)
[13:57] <mc_scRAT> malestine: in ubuntu there's no proprietary things a la video and mp3 support out-of-the-box (but there is all of it in repo), menu in Mint 7 is a little different - SuSe alike. some tweaks
[13:57] <lupine_85> but yes, works for me too
[13:57] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, no problem but for now i'm trying ubebootin didn't thought it could work better than usb-creator
[13:58] <mirco> TuxWork: sed 's/hardy/karmic/g' /etc/apt/sources.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.karmic
[13:58] <trasktrojanek> lupine_85, is there a way I can install 0.9.11 from source and not have to remove the karmic version (thus getting rid of ubuntu-desktop, etc.)?
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  they both just install syslinux to make the disk bootable, and copy over the files.. and make a syslinux.cfg file
[13:58] <TuxWork> mirco, last time I tried something like that, it b0rked my system.
[13:58] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  once ya learn how syslinux works you can do the job by hand. :)
[13:58] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, but i'm always impressed how fast is UNEtboootin compared to usb-creator, it takes like 1 minutes to copy files, is it normal ?
[13:58] <lupine_85> trasktrojanek: what's wrong with 0.9.24 ?
[13:59] <mirco> TuxWork: 1 our ago this worked for me, and don't worry it keeps the old file..
[13:59] <lupine_85> you /could/ put a different version in /usr/local, but it's probably more trouble than it's worth
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  the making of the persistant save file takes a long time.. the actual install is just copying over 700mb of files.
[13:59] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, anyway i had previewed to read about syslinux
[13:59] <trasktrojanek> lupine_85, I can't stand the fixed slot-allocation.
[13:59] <lupine_85> heh
[13:59] <TuxWork> mirco, okay then
[13:59] <Pici> TuxWork: What version of Ubuntu are you using currently?
[13:59] <TuxWork> Pici, Jaunty
[13:59] <lupine_85> well, if it's for cosmetic reasons, go for it
[13:59] <TuxWork> 64bit
[13:59] <Pici> TuxWork: And what have you tried to do in order to get it to upgrade?
[13:59] <vsMS> how can i use usplash in karmic?
[13:59] <DigitalKiwi> jacquesdupontd: anyway thanks for the link
[13:59] <mirco> so you should exchange hardy withj jaunty in the cmd ..
[14:00] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, understood but last time i tried on my usb pen drive it didn't worked with unetbootin as it was working perfectly with usb-creator
[14:00] <trasktrojanek> lupine_85, how might I "go for it" without breaking ubuntu-desktop, etc.?
[14:00] <vsMS> usplash_write does not do anything
[14:00] <erUSUL> mirco: TuxWork that upgrade method and specially *skipping* versions is specifically *not* *supported*
[14:00] <batang_g> can ubuntu jaunty be installed in windows? like 9.10 using wubi?
[14:00] <jacquesdupontd> Dr_Willis, thx a lot i'm gonna try that
[14:00] <jacquesdupontd> DigitalKiwi, thanks for wich link ? oh the last link yeah
[14:00] <HeadCrusher> which are the best video codecs for Ubuntu?
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> jacquesdupontd:  config files for syslinux differances
[14:00] <vania> hello there, is there any rs232 geeks here who might help me a little with 2x rs232 settings on karmik koala? I'm using Silicom based pcmcia card, setserial and trying to permanently change I/O to some different with no luck.
[14:00] <lupine_85> trasktrojanek: /usr/local is there for you to install whatever you like, so if you're happy to install from source, do so to there
[14:00] <DigitalKiwi> the multi boot from iso with grub2 one
[14:01] <lupine_85> /usr/local/bin is before /usr/bin in $PATH, so your custom version will be loaded by default
[14:01] <HeadCrusher> i am finding serious trouble to get all my videos played in ubuntu
[14:01] <TuxWork> Pici, tried doing sudo do-release-upgrade a couple times, tried downloading an ISO, mounting it and getting ubu to try and notice the new packages on the ISO
[14:01] <lupine_85> in theroy
[14:01] <trasktrojanek> lupine_85, thanks, I'll give it a shot.
[14:01] <lupine_85> theory*
[14:01] <indus> HeadCrusher: ffmpeg is  good
[14:01] <mirco> erUSUL: I didn't upgrade till now thank's for the info, but I'm looking for the xen packages in karmic... that's why i changed my sources.list...
[14:01] <jacquesdupontd> DigitalKiwi, i tried with the .iso but it causes problem in grub during the installation it says that it as to mount/unmount the drive where the grub you putted the entrie for iso is in so the device is busy and you can't go forward
[14:01] <mc_scRAT> llutz: as I can understand, it's shareware? guess not a linux way =)
[14:01] <rai> how to amplify small sound of ubuntu 9.04?
[14:01] <vania> hello there, is there any rs232 geeks here who might help me a little with 2x rs232 settings on karmik koala? I'm using Silicom based pcmcia card, setserial and trying to permanently change I/O to some different with no luck.
[14:01] <mirco> erUSUL: do you know if xen is in karmic repo's ?
[14:02] <vsMS> nobody here who can help?
[14:02] <indus> rai from volume control?
[14:02] <indus> vsMS: what problem
[14:02] <DigitalKiwi> jacquesdupontd: hrm
[14:02] <vsMS> i need usplash output in karmic boot
[14:02] <naser> hi again
[14:02] <erUSUL> mirco: did not upgrade yet still in jaunty
[14:02] <Pici> TuxWork: Using the CD only works if its the alternate CD. You could try sudo do-release-upgrade -p   to try to force it to grab Karmic
[14:02] <erUSUL> !find xen
[14:02] <vsMS> but everything i tried does not work
[14:02] <indus> vsMS: well that white logo is usplash
[14:02] <lupine_85> mirco: the hypervisor and the like is in
[14:02] <isolat3dsh33p> hello guys, i installed alien arena in my ubuntu 9.10, how do i know what version it is?
[14:02] <vsMS> i know
[14:02] <HeadCrusher> indus: thanks , which player would u recommend VLC?
[14:02] <naser> indus
[14:02] <naser> hi again
[14:02] <lupine_85> don't see any xen kernels though
[14:03] <TuxWork> Pici, been there, tried that. still on jaunty. :P
[14:03] <foxy_mefisto> doesn't karmic now use xsplash?
[14:03] <indus> HeadCrusher: i recommend totem today , it grabs all codecs nicely
[14:03] <naser> plz tell me how can i format my drive ! ?
[14:03] <mirco> lupine_85 but I couldn't find it via aptitude search, which repo?
[14:03] <TuxWork> why put xen on ubuntu when you can just download XenServer for free lupine_85 ?
[14:03] <vsMS> i saw that mountall creates output there but all i tried does not produce any output
[14:03] <naser> volume ( drive ) how can i format them in ubuntu
[14:03] <indus> HeadCrusher: vlc has its own codecs and generallyplays all things nice with more customization
[14:03] <lupine_85> why use Xen at all when KVM is in-tree?
[14:03] <llutz> mc_scRAT: it's opensource
[14:03] <lupine_85> KVM >> xen
[14:03] <indus> naser: format with live cd
[14:03] <TuxWork> KVM is crap
[14:03] <lupine_85> so you say
[14:04] <joaopinto> !language
[14:04] <lupine_85> yet it's making us a packet of money
[14:04] <indus> HeadCrusher: which file cant you play?
[14:04] <llutz> mc_scRAT: bsd-style license
[14:04] <TuxWork> it's not mature enough yet
[14:04] <HeadCrusher> indus: can u tell me the procedures....because totem somehow is the only one that doesnt play any videos of mine
[14:04] <mirco> TuxWork: because I wanna stay with aptitude, and have a kernel bigger than 2.6.18
[14:04] <TuxWork> sorry about the language
[14:04] <naser> whith live cd ?
[14:04] <faceman> how can I download drivers for linux out of ubuntu and then put them into ubuntu?
[14:04] <joaopinto> let's move the VM discussion to the off topic channel :)
[14:04] <isolat3dsh33p> hello guys, i installed alien arena in my ubuntu 9.10, how do i know what version it is?
[14:04] <indus> HeadCrusher: hmm, what is the format
[14:04] <HeadCrusher> indus: i need for mkv, mp4, avi and mpg files
[14:04] <vsMS> indus:my script get's executed during upstart
[14:04] <joaopinto> faceman, the drivers are already builtin or available from the package manager, in general
[14:04] <erUSUL> !version | isolat3dsh33p
[14:05] <indus> vsMS: aah sorry cant help with custom scripts
[14:05] <naser> how can i format ??? my volume ????
[14:05] <indus> HeadCrusher: for major problems with formats, stick to vlc or mplayer
[14:05] <faceman> but you need the internet to download them, joapinto. And the drivers I need to download are for the internet
[14:05] <vania> hello there, is there any rs232 geeks here who might help me a little with 2x rs232 settings on karmik koala? I'm using Silicom based pcmcia card, setserial and trying to permanently change I/O to some different with no luck.

[14:20] <vania> erUSUL, yes i had to create this file, it is not created by default
[14:20] <yareckon> can you ping google.com?

[14:20] <Tamale> hi everyone, are GTK themes supposed to change the colors for some web page fonts in firefox if you select "Allow webpages to choose their own fonts and colors" in firefox??
[14:20] <meindian523> xeer: as in?
[14:20] <erUSUL> vania: what you need it for ?
[14:20] <vania> erUSUL, but it is responsible for serial override at boot
[14:21] <yareckon> meindian523, type ping google.com in a terminal...
[14:21] <yareckon> what do you get
[14:21] <sebsebseb> mmjj23: me
[14:21] <meindian523> yareckon: that works
[14:21] <HeadCrusher> somehow in my case wasnt pulse audio but ALSA de correct one
[14:21] <meindian523> yareckon: 100% packet returns
[14:21] <yareckon> ok.. .so udp is working, but other stuff isn't
[14:21] <sebsebseb> mmjj23: There is a way to install it from inside Windows, but you don't get a proper install.  So you need a Live CD
[14:22] <vania> erUSUL, well, this pcmcia card, Silicom, is meant to work with appropriate settings, and with default kernel settings it is just dont work
[14:22] <yareckon> is this a fresh install or what?

[14:22] <erUSUL> vania: no /etc/init.d/setserial is afaics based on /var/lib/setserial/autoserial.conf ...
[14:22] <meindian523> yareckon: it was a in-place upgrade but I fresh installed, after opting out of formatting my /home partition
[14:23] <yareckon> is this a laptop?
[14:23] <meindian523> yareckon: nope, desktop
[14:23] <haenet3> cO moezliem

[14:23] <PaperBug> Can someone tell me if ubuntu logs any remote connects or connection attempts  that where made to mypc?
[14:23] <PaperBug> And where i can check this info
[14:24] <yareckon> meindian523, are you behind a router?
[14:24] <ae88925> I have intel video.  How can I tell if I'm in EXA or UXA mode? I have not xorg.conf.  Do I need to generate one?
[14:24] <meindian523> yareckon: yes, a D-Link DSL 502T
[14:24] <llutz> PaperBug: /var/log/auth.log if being logged
[14:24] <vania> and it gives a sh*** what i want to do, still kernel defaults are created
[14:24] <HeadCrusher> hey i was disconnected and i forgot who told me about medibuntu
[14:24] <erUSUL> PaperBug: do you have a firewall configured ?
[14:24] <yareckon> meindian523, I assume you are on another maching on the same network talking to us with no issues?
[14:24] <sebsebseb> mnml: hmm at similar names messing up my auto complete see above when I messaged someone else
[14:24] <babyshambles> hi. i have a problem when saving nvidia X conf. i got an error msg like this " Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! ". i already try with gksudo nvidia-settings and gksu nvidia-settings, but it doesn't fix the problem. how can i overwrite this file? thank you ;)
[14:24] <meindian523> yareckon: nope, I'm on Windows on the same machine talking with you via webchat.freenode.net
[14:25] <erUSUL> vania: well this is as far as i can go helping with his isuue sorry.
[14:25] <vania> kk, thanks for that, good luck
[14:25] <llutz> babyshambles: since xorg.conf won't exist, write the new one to different location and copy it later by hand
[14:25] <jrib> babyshambles: what are you trying to accomplish?
[14:26] <yareckon> so you are rebooting, or what?
[14:26] <meindian523> yareckon: yes, dual boot
[14:26] <babyshambles> jrib : i just reinstall ubuntu. and want to change my screen resolution.
[14:26] <jrib> babyshambles: system -> administration -> screen resolution
[14:26] <meindian523> yareckon: network didn't work on the live session either, when I was fresh installing over in-place upgrae 9.10
[14:27] <PaperBug> llutz: Thanks !
[14:27] <yareckon> ok
[14:27] <meindian523> *upgraded
[14:27] <yareckon> I had an issue ages ago where my router was dropping packets that linux was generating with a certain TTL
[14:27] <babyshambles> jrib : it comes to default after rebooting :\
[14:27] <yareckon> or something
[14:28] <jrib> !fixres > babyshambles
[14:28] <yareckon> it was a verizon router
[14:28] <meindian523> yareckon: the thing is that 9.10 broke the network which has been working 7.04+
[14:28] <voonte> Anyone had a problem with clicking buttons in Eclipse/Aptana using a 64bit system?
[14:28] <yareckon> there was a kernel patch to allow linux to work around it... about a year ago
[14:28] <yareckon> yeah
[14:28] <meindian523> yareckon: (which was my 1st Ubuntu install)
[14:28] <Lint01> damned kdm starts but dies instantly
[14:28] <yareckon> meindian523, you can only upgrade from 9.04 you know
[14:29] <meindian523> yareckon: sorry, didn't understand that?
[14:29] <yareckon> you cannot go straight 7.04 > 9.10
[14:29] <mnml> whats the difference betweeen desktop-i386-ro.iso & desktop-amd64-ro.iso
[14:29] <yareckon> however, if the live cd doesn't work, your current problem is not this one
[14:29] <Appiah> mnml: 32bit and 64bit
[14:30] <meindian523> yareckon: I know that, I'm saying that 7.04-9.04, there were no problems
[14:30] <Appiah> mnml: i386 =32bit , amd64 = 64bit
[14:30] <yareckon> ah, ok
[14:30] <erUSUL> yareckon: some old/broken routers do not support tcp_window_scaling which linux uses by default (but not winXP)
[14:30] <Lint01> Any ideas?!!!???
[14:30] <mnml> if my processor runs on 64bit ? how can i findout ?
[14:30] <yareckon> erUSUL, that is it
[14:30] <istvan> hello, i just re-installed, and un-packed the tar I made of my files. it appears that the amount of space ubuntu says my home folder takes up, and how much space it uses on the drive are quite different. could this be the hidden backup files? it is around twice the amount of size ubuntu says the folder is, that is no longer avalable on the hd.
[14:30] <Appiah> look at the specs for your computer mnml ...
[14:30] <yareckon> meindian523, erUSUL is describing the bug
[14:31] <meindian523> MrNaz: if your processor is PentiumD and above, it supports 64 bit
[14:31] <yareckon> if this was a laptop, I would suggest moving it behind a different router to test
[14:31] <meindian523> erUSUL: what bug?
[14:31] <niko-mojo> Hi room, anyone every get this issue when trying to play a DVD with gmplayer ?  Maybe you are playing a non-interleaved stream/file or the codec failed :)
[14:31] <yareckon> tcp window scaling
[14:31] <bastidrazor> mnml: sudo lshw -class processor   ..that will have x86_64 in there if it does. if that is not there it is 32bit
[14:31] <yareckon> read up
[14:31] <IHS_Volunteer> mnml, you can type "cat /proc/cpuinfo" that will give you the instruction set. if you have an intel cpu and see em64t, it's 64bit.
[14:31] <meindian523> yareckon: erUSUL well, a router doesn't suddenly stop supporting tcp_window_scaling
[14:31] <meindian523> whatever that is
[14:31] <SoleSurvivor2012> hi
[14:31] <babyshambles> jrib : im sorry but your ubottu help doesnt works.. screen resolution always come to default after reboot.
[14:31] <yareckon> meindian523, but linux does suddenly start using it
[14:32] <erUSUL> yareckon: but you dop not need a patch « echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling  » is enough ;P
[14:32] <yareckon> meindian523, try it
[14:32] <SoleSurvivor2012> I know could sound stupid.... but i use Ubuntu(gnome) by default.....that means i cant run a KDE program like amarok, right?
[14:32] <meindian523> yareckon: 9.10 started using tcp_window_scaling?
[14:32] <eddym> hey can any1 help me out with a driver issue for vx3000 camera http://pastebin.com/d641c18c2
[14:32] <iceroot> if i create a file as user "foo" what is saved in the file? the username "foo" or the id of the user? so where gets ls -all the information, how is the owner?
[14:32] <ikonia> SoleSurvivor2012: you can use kde apps
[14:32] <yareckon> meindian523, I remember having this issue in debian about a year ago
[14:32] <ikonia> SoleSurvivor2012: it will just download the kde dependencies it needs to run them
[14:33] <SoleSurvivor2012> ikonia: THANKS

[14:33] <meindian523> erUSUL: I need to type "echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling" on my install?
[14:33] <erUSUL> meindian523: i do not know if that's the issue just ansewring this 15:27 < yareckon> I had an issue ages ago where my router was dropping packets that linux was generating with a certain TTL
[14:33] <jatt> iceroot: from the inode
[14:33] <iceroot> jatt: and hwat info? id or usernanme?
[14:33] <iceroot> llutz: so you mean the user-id?
[14:33] <llutz> iceroot: yes
[14:34] <erUSUL> meindian523: if window scaling is the problem then yes that should fix it. but again i do not know if it is
[14:34] <yareckon> erUSUL, meindian523, it's possibly a fix
[14:34] <eddym> iceroot: http://pastebin.com/d641c18c2 can u walk me through this issue
[14:34] <meindian523> erUSUL:  ok, let's try it
[14:34] <yareckon> won't hurt anything
[14:34] <iceroot> eddym: i dont htink so
[14:34] <eddym> iceroot: ok kind of confusing for me
[14:34] <sirLX> #lesswatts
[14:34]  * meindian523 reboots and tries that command
[14:35] <erUSUL> meindian523: no need to reboot
[14:35] <iceroot> llutz: is there a way to see that info? (to see the user-id is stored for the owner)
[14:35] <llutz> iceroot: copy that file to a system with different usernames, you'll see what happens to the owner/group
[14:35] <meindian523> erUSUL: I'm on dual boot and typing on Windows
[14:35] <erUSUL> meindian523: that takes effect at runtime
[14:35] <Lint01> can someone tell me why nor kdm nor gdm are operating?
[14:35] <erUSUL> meindian523: ahh ok
[14:35] <meindian523> erUSUL: I need to reboot
[14:35] <jatt> iceroot: afaik the inode contains the user id of the owner which is then mapped to a username in userspace
[14:35] <scunizi> Lint01: you installed server?
[14:35] <iceroot> jatt: is there a way to see the inode?
[14:35] <Lint01> scunizi, installed what?
[14:35] <llutz> iceroot: ls -ln
[14:36] <scunizi> Lint01: the server version of ubuntu?  it doesn't have a gui
[14:36] <yareckon> woops
[14:36] <Lint01> scunizi, no, it's desktop version, and it even start video mode but login manager dies prematurely
[14:37] <jatt> iceroot: ls -i foo gives you the inode number of foo. Alternatively you can use stat.
[14:37] <jrib> babyshambles: erm, you read his link?
[14:37] <iceroot> llutz, jatt: thank you
[14:37] <llutz> iceroot: "stat file" gives you all you want
[14:38] <babyshambles> jrib : link form the bot? i only copy the cmd line and use it in terminal..
[14:38] <babyshambles> *from
[14:38] <jrib> babyshambles: right, he gives you a link that probably contains useful information...

[14:39] <iceroot> llutz: as uid
[14:39] <llutz> iceroot: yes
[14:39] <iceroot> llutz: ok

[14:39] <eraldo> since I upgraded to 9.10 my webcam does not work correctly anymore. System: amd64 2.6.31-14-generic. Webcam: "Live! Cam Video IM" model "VF0220". The webcam works if I start "gstreamer-properties" and klick on "Test" on the Video tab. The webcam works in Ekiga as well. But as soon as I try to start cheese or camorama I get "No camera found". Any idea why that could be the case?

[14:41] <welcome> hello guys
[14:42] <yareckon> welcome welcome
[14:42] <Lint01> is there a way to fix damned kdm or whatever
[14:42] <welcome> I can't play songs in amarok
[14:43] <sipior> Lint01: do you have some sort of error message to diagnose?
[14:43] <nicle_> welcome: how about other players?
[14:43] <Lint01> sipior, no, it;s just dies silently
[14:43] <IdleOne> Lint01: is there a way to get you to stop cursing in every sentence?
[14:43] <nicle_> welcome: such as mplayer/vlc...
[14:44] <nicle_> welcome: and what's the format of your songs
[14:44] <sipior> Lint01: even when you attempt to start X from the console?
[14:44] <welcome> mp3
[14:44] <Lint01> sipior, X is working
[14:44] <welcome> nicle: mp3
[14:44] <babyshambles> jrib : i read that. too confusing..  i just want to change the screen resolutions from nvidia-settings. it's more easy.
[14:44] <foxy_mefisto> eraldo: cheese and camorama may have config files somewhere that might not be compatible with karmic versions since the upgrade
[14:44] <sipior> Lint01: and if you try to fire up gdm from the console?
[14:44] <jrib> babyshambles: k
[14:45] <Lint01> sipior, it gives an exception and dies too
[14:45] <eraldo> foxy_mefisto: do you know any other app that I can use to take my daily picture?
[14:45] <sipior> Lint01: you know what i'm going to ask next, right? :-)
[14:45] <MrPiracy_> how can i get my multilaser webcam working on koala?

[14:46] <dhalsimm> hi, I wrote this bug a month ago (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598085), but I didn't understand its solution. What is wrong with my settings? I'm using ubuntu 9.04
[14:47] <erUSUL> meindian523: :|
[14:47] <sipior> Lint01: what was the exception given?
[14:47] <foxy_mefisto> eraldo: in vlc, ctrl+C will open the "capture device" dialog. enter your cam's device (probably /dev/video0)
[14:47] <w0ls0n> does anyone here know how to disable the prompt that comes up when you try to restart or shutdown your machine that says it will shut down in 60 seconds?

[14:50] <meindian523> yareckon: 8139too, IIRC
[14:50] <yareckon> I know that on debian broadcom drivers were removed from the kernel etch > lenny, and I had to sneakernet a package to get them working again

[14:51] <BluesKaj> sampo, my experience with lexmark inl level indicators is that it tries to convince you that the carts are out of ink at 50% , no point , just wait til the colour starts to turn pink or green .
[14:52] <dhalsimm> erUSUL: it is a DND behaviour bug, I think. If you try to drag (a file) from a maximized(m) window to unmaximized one (u), (u) loses focus so it is not possible to drop the file from (m) to (u). You can try it to see.

[14:56] <sampo> yes, the drivers that I did install z605 has an application that shows the level(I suppose shows it correct)...but if there is not in Ubuntu, no prob for me...just curiosity...
[14:56] <w0ls0n> does anyone here know how to disable the prompt that comes up when you try to restart or shutdown your machine that says it will shut down in 60 seconds?
[14:56] <erUSUL> dhalsimm: now i understand... my unmaxiced window do not loose focus when i DND
[14:56] <dhalsimm> erUSUL: no, I just want to drag a file from a nautilus window, to another nautilus window. But active window loses focus while dragging so it makes a problem when dnd'ing on maximized windows
