[08:48] <chaudhary> emc2
[08:49] <aBound> Flying marking?
[08:50] <almoxarife> aBound: marking stuff while flying=flying marking
[08:50] <aBound> As in flying in a plane?
[08:51] <almoxarife> aBound: no, that would be plane flying
[08:51] <juniour> hi
[08:51] <aBound> Flying marking doesn't make much sense.

[08:54] <juniour> hi can i use unity and compiz together
[08:54] <html> htmlinprogress
[08:54] <juniour> in ubuntu 11.10
[08:54] <html> i this you can.. youtube it
[08:54] <phnewbie> juniour : yes you  can
[08:55] <Krissed> Hi guys. I need to find casper.log where is that located ?
[08:55] <juniour> phnewbie but when i enable cube the untity gone man
[08:55] <juniour> phnewbie i cant use desktop cube and unity at same time
[08:56] <juniour> i wanna to use unti and cube and rotate desktop
[08:56] <phnewbie> juniour: you can use most of the compiz settings along with unity, some of them do have conflicts in which case you need to choose between the two
[08:56] <aBound> Krissed, This is the only directory I found for casper: /var/log/installer/casper.log
[08:56] <juniour> k
[08:59] <shisha42>  /server <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:00] <Krissed> aBound thanks. Im having an issue with computer not booting after turning an installed Ubuntu into a ISO.. Basicly the ISO created and burned stops at Checking battery state (even on a desktop ). I figured it would be remastersys causing a problem (i install ubuntu and update it and stuff before running remastersys)
[09:01] <z3r0c007> relinux is safe to install on 11.10 ubuntu
[09:01] <aBound> Krissed, I had a few issues like that before it could be a variety of apps that may have caused the problem.
[09:02] <aBound> I remember removing my Byobu terminal and it killed my LightDM login with the "checking battery state".
[09:03] <chaudhary> linux emc2  knowledge ?
[09:04] <Krissed> aBound im using GDM because in lightDM i cant set the default session. I need it to be gnome fallback (unity isnt workable here)
[09:04] <shisha42> server <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:04] <Krissed> aBound are you saying that killing lightDM might cause it to not work ?
[09:05] <aBound> Krissed, Understandable Unity should be fixed in 12.04.
[09:05] <crizzy> 'fixed'
[09:05] <Krissed> aBound preferbly just non-existing.
[09:05] <aBound> Krissed, I was saying a variety of problems can cause Ubuntu to go into a "Checking battery state".
[09:06] <z3r0c007> relinux is safe to install on 11.10 ubuntu
[09:06] <aBound> I had my nVidia driver go to a checking battery state and one time I removed my byobu terminal like before it killed LightDM and sent me to a text-mode kernel with checking battery state.
[09:06] <jmscomtech> er how come vlc stoped playing .mkv files?
[09:06] <Krissed> aBound i just dont get it.. I have ubuntu installed. installed a few things like likewise-open and GDM and gnome-fallback. I have it so it only have fallback option. It all works just perfect. Except after i run remastersys and make it into an iso and attempt to boot from it
[09:07] <aBound> z3r0c007, If it isn't in the official repositories we can't help much on that aspect.
[09:07] <aBound> z3r0c007, As it's not part of Ubuntu making it a problem for ReLinux users.
[09:07] <z3r0c007> ok thanks aBound
[09:08] <aBound> z3r0c007, No problem.
[09:08] <Krissed> aBound do you know any other programs that lets me turn an installed ubuntu into a ISO ?
[09:08] <zell0x> hi
[09:08] <z3r0c007> but its a customition of ubuntu
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, Ubuntu 11.10 can be quite unstable for some as Unity has given me some issues and this version in general can be a headache. As bluetooth doesn't even seem to work either.
[09:09] <varikonniemi> hello, i have a problem with a start script, could anyone see if something obviously is wrong with it: http://pastebin.com/TRydqeYT it launches the application, the program records video, but does not output anything. When launching manually with 'glc-capture spring' in terminal it works fine.
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, I would say use some other app for doing that but I can't say if one exist.
[09:09] <aBound> Krissed, There is a alternative Ubuntu ISO which should allow you to customize your Ubuntu ISO.
[09:10] <Krissed> aBound agree but sadly its the ONLY version after 9.10 which works with likewise-open and having windows shares so i really dont have much of a choice
[09:10] <juniour> hi guys in ubuntu 10.10 when i rightclick on pannel i get some option but in 11.10 i cant gaet any thing

[09:11] <juniour> then how will i add gadgeds
[09:11] <juniour> tere
[09:11] <theadmin> juniour: They don't exist anymore, you can't add anything
[09:12] <juniour> y???
[09:12] <theadmin> juniour: Because support for Gnome2 has been dropped.
[09:12] <Krissed> juniour same thing i said when i saw unity.. ditch it..
[09:12] <theadmin> juniour: Try XFCE...
[09:12] <theadmin> !xfce | juniour
[09:12] <Krissed> you can install gnome-fallback
[09:12] <Krissed> that works.
[09:12] <juniour> but there is battery icon message icon sound etc
[09:12] <juniour> if they are there
[09:12] <chuck1310> xfcf rocks

[10:10] <azi> wireless problem. I can connect to my home wireless network through windows, but in ubuntu it says that the authentification failed (incorect password) what could be causing that?
[10:11] <bullgard4> azi: Ubuntu needs learning to accept your WLAN password.
[10:11] <azi> bullgard4: what do you mean
[10:12] <azi> bullgard4: wireless works fine in ubuntu just this network seems to be causing an issue
[10:12] <bullgard4> azi: Just what I wrote.
[10:12] <azi> bullgard4: learning what?
[10:13] <bullgard4> azi: You need to key in the passeord that your specific 'WLAN access point expects.
[10:14] <azi> duh. i don't seem to understand

[10:15] <wadkar> can someone please tell me the default color pallet for terminals (gnome terminal)
[10:15] <azi> now it's clear. i wasn't sure if you were a troll at the begining
[10:15] <quixotedon> bullgard: maybe azi means 'duh' in his/her language :)
[10:16] <jrib> bullgard4: for future reference, "duh" means "obviously" (but it's usually a bit rude)
[10:16] <wadkar> I was trying out different color scheme for my terminal and now its ruined ! please, help me restore it back to what it was
[10:17] <wadkar> I cant work with these horrible colors !
[10:17] <jrib> wadkar: what did you do to try a different color scheme?
[10:17] <bullgard4> jrib: Thank you for explaining.
[10:18] <wadkar> jrib: I unchecked "Use colors from system theme" and then fiddled with Built-in schemes , and I think I also changed the color pallet available for terminal applications

[10:23] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, does the rest of your screen also suffer from a magenta hue?
[10:23] <Amanda_> good morning is anyone here a networking expert who could help me?
[10:23] <Guest64509> bullgard4: pasted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/822391/
[10:23] <jrib> wadkar: can't you choose a built-in scsheme from the dropdown menu?
[10:24] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: nope, its just the text inside my vim editor (editing a PHP file now) and the literal strings are in bright pink
[10:24] <Amanda_> I'm having this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/865001 when trying to get my macbook working through ubuntu
[10:25] <wadkar> jrib: If I chose colors from system theme, the built-in scheme disappears, but i can still select color pallets though
[10:25] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, in Gnome Terminal you can edit your colorschemes, afterwards, you can save your settings and select them upon opening a new terminal window
[10:25] <wadkar> jrib: ohh thank god ! the color pallet default is 'tango' it seems
[10:25] <totalNoob> Hello all
[10:25] <jrib> wadkar: you can choose built-in scheme for the palette :)
[10:26] <totalNoob> I have a problem with sharing my internet connection for windows 7 and ubuntu as host, but no luck :'(
[10:26] <totalNoob> what should I do?
[10:26] <wadkar> jrib: yes, thats what I did, and looks like I have been using 'tango' from beginning, I only realized now that white-on-black custom scheme for text color with this color pallet is a horrible choice !
[10:26] <totalNoob> I'm using Xubuntu oneirick
[10:27] <Amanda_> totalnoob - look here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/865001
[10:27] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: yes, but I would rather not go into making choices about colors, too afraid to _fudgeUp_ things again
[10:28] <Amanda_> The workaround makes it so it doesn't cycle on and off all the time, but it doesn't appear to do dhcp afterwards.
[10:29] <wadkar> how do you get yourself used to a new color scheme/theme ? I am thinking of not looking at the computer screen for a day or two and then change the settings and try again after a day or two. Any choice/change I make strikes back at me with a horrible look
[10:30] <jrib> wadkar: only make changes you like :)
[10:30] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I understand. Aren't there any sane color themes that you can choose from?
[10:30] <wadkar> jrib: hehe, yeah, but any change I make look unsatisfying, only because I am too much used to the old theme
[10:31] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: You mean system themes? or particular gnome-terminal color scheme ?
[10:31] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I mean, prebuilt particular gnome-terminal color schemes.
[10:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: yes, I tried white-on-black (I prefer dark background) but it didn't please my eyes, but then, as I said, it might be because I am too much used to the old style (and now I don't like that one too :P)
[10:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, try white on blue, it's the most soothing combination. Heck, even WP51. (remember?) used that scheme.
[10:35] <totalNoob> are there any gui method for sharing internet connection on KDE? I connected via pppoeconf and using hub. I want to share internet connection for my windows 7 laptop. what should I do?
[10:35] <Mrokii> Hello. For some reason when I use Command+R in Bash, I can only find the last command with the search-term, but using up- and down-arrows terminates the search-mode and brings me back to the command-line. In other words: I can not look for earlier occurences of a search-term. Any explanation available for that?
[10:35] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: looks like I have to go all the way from gnome-terminal color scheme + color pallet + vim editor color scheme + my bash cutom color hacks (git customization etc.) and whatever else that I touched upon : just to get my work environment look beautiful !!
[10:35] <jrib> wadkar: here's what I use, maybe it will give you some ideas: http://i.imgur.com/0Dn2j.png
[10:35] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: white on blue ? I dont see that in the options
[10:36] <totalNoob> thank you Amanda_ but this is not my issue.
[10:36] <Vivekananda> bullgard4,sure, I posted the link for help for whoever was looking.I am using lucid current updates and tried to install software for Ipwebcam to use my android galaxy y as webcam.I have run into problems while installing the packages specifically v4l2loopback and the details are there in the post --- --http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=85208986
[10:36] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, strange, I have it, then again I have upgraded from 8.04 all the way to 11.10, so that might be included. I use LXTerminal myself, but I might have some sane configs that I can put up for download for you if I find them
[10:37] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Just a minute yet ...
[10:37] <Amanda_> You figure sharing an internet connection would be something ubuntu would do without any hassle. :(
[10:37] <jrib> !ics | Amanda_
[10:37] <wadkar> jrib: interesting, thats some nice colorful terminal ... I have a requirement of transparent background (for terminal) though, do you reckon it will screw up such colorful theme ?
[10:37] <Guest64509> i'm loged in and suddanly a black screan appears and after that i see the loginsceen again. 11: i'm using ubuntu 10.04. sugestion of theadmin: x crashes. does anyone find something about the problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/822366/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822370/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822371/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822372/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822373/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/822391/
[10:38] <juniour> hi guys which jave is good gor 11.10
[10:38] <jrib> wadkar: I think that transparent terminals, while they may look pretty, just make things harder to read
[10:38] <Stereocaulon> jrib, I agree
[10:38] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10
[10:39] <totalNoob> junior I think, sun-java is good for ubuntu
[10:39] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I am on 11.04, thinking about upgrading for a long time, just too afraid to break the grub (have a fudged up partition scheme, had to get rid of swap partition so I can use the rest 300GBs)
[10:39] <wasanzy> hi
[10:39] <jrib> !java | juniour
[10:40] <wadkar> jrib: indeed, but I set the transparency level just enough to be able to read whats _behind_ the terminal window
[10:40] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, anyway, I'll start up my Gnome term to see if I am imagining things or if there is indeed such a color scheme available.
[10:40] <wadkar> jrib: which I find quite productive when working with external API docs, or working on SQLyog while modifying data by hand
[10:41] <Faris> Hi. I'm running a command that redirects its output to a file like this: command > file. but the file won't get updated in real time. how do I do that ,
[10:41] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: thanks, let me know
[10:41] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, what editor do you use in the terminal? If it's vi, I have a beautiful color scheme right here.
[10:41] <Faris> can I have it :)
[10:41] <tanath> can anyone help me with setting up a vpn? i'm following directions here https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/serverguide/C/openvpn.html and need to know if i can use ip for hostname
[10:41] <jrib> wadkar: do what works for you; that workflow would be impossible for me.  It's much faster for me to just have the wind juxtaposed to my terminal
[10:42] <tanath> since there is no hostname
[10:42] <Stereocaulon> Faris, you mean the color theme? Sure why not.
[10:42] <Faris> yes :)
[10:42] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: vim it is ! and I am using elflord though I am not so happy with color for the literal strings (in PHP, BTW)
[10:42] <html> tanath,  is it a static ip?
[10:42] <tanath> html, yep
[10:42] <Faris> I use Darkbone, Jellybeans and Nature
[10:42] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, you are in for a treat then, just a moment...
[10:42] <lupzz> hi, how do I convince nautilus to open eps files using gv?
[10:43] <jrib> !defaultapp | lupzz
[10:43] <wadkar> Faris: three color scheme ? I thought you can chose one?
[10:43] <html> tanath,  did you lock it in , and you isp is not going to change it on you ?
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, gv is not on that list
[10:43] <Faris> Nah, depending on the language :)
[10:43] <tanath> html, actually, i'd like to be able to not have to use static ip, so i can access remotely...
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, gv something.eps works ..
[10:43] <jrib> lupzz: you can add to the list
[10:43] <tanath> html, html set in my router, so yes.
[10:43] <lupzz> jrib, how?
[10:43] <tanath> oops
[10:44] <html> and your isp?y
[10:44] <tanath> html, shouldn't be relevant...?
[10:44] <jrib> lupzz: "show other applications" though it used to just let you navigate your filesystem and choose any binary...
[10:44] <wadkar> jrib: yep, I took the pains to get used to it, hated it in the beginning but found that content behind the terminal can be _quite interesting_ , *cough* , if you know what I mean :)
[10:44] <tanath> html, i have a static ip from isp, though it can change occasionally...
[10:45] <Guest64509> hello???
[10:45] <html> my isp  call mediacom  has a dyanmic ip system so i dont know how to say the same ip with in the week to 12 hours
[10:45] <lupzz> jrib, yes but that option is not there anymore..
[10:45] <html> tanath,
[10:45] <jrib> lupzz: is gv not listed when you click "show other applications"?
[10:45] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Is line number 703 really the last one?
[10:46] <Guest64509> yes
[10:46] <tanath> html, ?
[10:46] <Guest64509> i copied everything
[10:46] <lupzz> jrib, is not there
[10:46] <Guest64509> bullgard4: yes, i copied everything
[10:46] <Vivekananda> smone who can comment on my question??
[10:46] <tanath> html, oh, i see comment now
[10:46] <tanath> html, anyway, just trying to make sure i can put lan ip and use locally
[10:47] <jrib> lupzz: create a .desktop file and edit either defaults.list or mimeapps.list (I think it's now mimeapps.list) in ~/.local/share/applications/
[10:47] <tanath> html, unless you have a solution so i can use remotely too
[10:47] <html> what?
[10:47] <html> team veiwer
[10:47] <html> logmein
[10:48] <Myr> Anyone here have experience with installing Tomcat on Ubuntu?
[10:48] <html> i can show you if you like
[10:48] <KNUBBIG> Myr: yes
[10:48] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: please wait, I will be back
[10:48] <html>  what i tomcat?
[10:48]  * wadkar is away from the desk
[10:48] <html> tanath,
[10:48] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, here you go, just get the files at www.tschai.nl/.viminfo www.tschai.nl/.bashrc
[10:49] <Myr> KNUBBIG: familiar with "/usr/share/tomcat7/bin/catalina.sh: 110: uname: not found"
[10:49] <Faris> StereocaulonThanx !
[10:49] <tanath> html, team viewer may work... although i want to know how to use the built-in features i have available
[10:49] <KNUBBIG> Myr: no but it looks like the uname command is not found. What happens if you type uname in a fresh terminal?
[10:49] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Faris, both files are invisible in Linux, because they are dotfiles.
[10:49] <Stereocaulon> Faris, np :-)
[10:50] <Faris> I can't see viminfo though
[10:50] <bullgard4> Guest64509: I noticed that at that boot-up process there was a hard disk error and your operating system tried to fix it. May be it was not successful. The line 703 is a relevant error message. It usually only appears it your ACPI was not all right. I think you should first test your hard disk if it is ok yet. If yes, restart your computer and see if the bug still appears. If yes, analyze...
[10:50] <bullgard4> ...again dmesg.
[10:50] <lupzz> jrib, .. is it this the only way=
[10:50] <lupzz> ?
[10:50] <Faris> Stereocaulon
[10:50] <Stereocaulon> Faris, don't download that one please...
[10:50] <html> tanath,  so what do you want to do
[10:50] <Faris> Stereocaulon: I can't see it at all
[10:50] <Myr> KNUBBIG: prints "linux"
[10:51] <KNUBBIG> Myr: wait I'll look in catalina.sh myself
[10:51] <Stereocaulon> Faris, that's good, because it contained some personal data :-/
[10:51] <Stereocaulon> Faris, no passwords or so, don't get excited ;-)
[10:52] <html> tanath,  ??
[10:52] <tanath> html, well, i was at the step where you run './pkitool hostname'. i can likely use the lan ip, but if i were trying to access from outside my lan that wouldn't work, and my device has no hostname, so...
[10:52] <Faris> Stereocaulon :)
[10:52] <Guest64509> how do i chek the hardisk and does it sayes which hardisk? ik have 80 GB inside, 300 GB and 1TB extern (al divided in partitions exept the 300)
[10:52] <KNUBBIG> Myr: mh line 110 doesn't say anything about uname at all ... could you pastebin your catalina.sh?
[10:53] <Stereocaulon> Faris, ah, I see, it's only readable by root, I'll fix that, just a sec
[10:53] <Myr> KNUBBIG: I guess, its nothing more then the standard though
[10:53] <Guest64509> bullgard4: how do i chek the hardisk and does it sayes which hardisk? ik have 80 GB inside, 300 GB and 1TB extern (al divided in partitions exept the 300)
[10:53] <hroi> hi
[10:53] <hroi> Im trying out the lockfile command
[10:54] <hroi> but it aint doing what I thought.
[10:54] <jrib> lupzz: only way I know
[10:54] <lupzz> jrib, ok.. is this a bug or a feature of the gnome 3.x ?
[10:55] <Myr> KNUBBIG: http://pastie.org/3281492
[10:55] <Stereocaulon> Faris, the .viminfo was not useful anyway, only contained last opened files and such, no config. My .vim file is empty, it gets the settings from a global /etc-setting...
[10:55] <jrib> lupzz: what would the bug be?
[10:55] <Faris> Stereocaulon So where's the vim theme then ? :p
[10:55] <lupzz> jrib, missing custom command in the open with dialog?
[10:55] <KNUBBIG> Myr: thanks, did you use apt-get to install tomcat?
[10:56] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Please use the System > Administration > »Disk Utility« program for that purpose.
[10:56] <Myr> No, I used the tar.gz from the website
[10:56] <Stereocaulon> Faris, the .bashrc file takes care of most of the coloring, but I'll look up where my Vim get it's color set from.
[10:56] <lupzz> jrib, I can't classify it as a feature request given the fact that this feature was right there in the previous version..
[10:56] <or4n9e> hi. may someone explain to me how I'd re-compile a certain ubuntu package? I.e. is it even possible. Essentially I need to append an additional configure flag to bluez
[10:56] <jrib> lupzz: my guess would be that it was replaced with the simpler "show other applications" intentionally.  But check launchpad and the gnome bugzilla I guess
[10:56] <jrib> !source | or4n9e
[10:56] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10
[10:57] <Myr> KNUBBIG: No, I grabbed the tar.gz from the website, I seem to need version 7
[10:57] <juniour> jre or jdk
[10:57] <juniour> hi guys which java is good for 11.10 ,jdk or jre
[10:57] <Myr> both
[10:57] <html> tanath,   so is that all for you , or theres more you want help with ?
[10:57] <Guest64509> bullgard4: interne harddisk: green with comment "some bad sectors"
[10:57] <or4n9e> jrib: thx
[10:57] <lupzz> jrib, but what rationale could be in removing the "add custom command" button?
[10:58] <jrib> or4n9e: I'd suggest incrementing the package version with the command (while appending a suffix like "~orange") and document your changes with the command « dch -i »
[10:58] <bullgard4> Guest64509: »Disk Utility« allows you to test all 3 hard disks and find out which one is damaged.
[10:58] <jrib> lupzz: I don't know, I didn't do it :P It's more straightforward I guess (I think it's a stupid change)
[10:58] <eutheria> other than thunderbird and evolution, can anyone suggest a reasonable email client that supports imaps, (it is for testing as i don't want a string of account on main email)
[10:58] <Stereocaulon> Faris, found it...I'll upload it shortly.
[10:58] <tanath> html, i'd like to know how to configure it when there's no hostname. not sure how to proceed in that case
[10:58] <KNUBBIG> Myr: I can't actually see any error, it might be that catalina.sh is ran by a user with no access to uname. If I were you, I'd remove the manually installed one and try 'apt-get install tomcat7'. Sorry :-/
[10:58] <or4n9e> jrib: ok
[10:58] <Faris> Stereocaulon THaank you: )
[10:58] <Guest64509> bullgard4: by 300 GB SMART not supported
[10:58] <Faris> Stereocaulon u use any plugins?
[10:58] <overclucker> juniour: you'll only need the jre unless you plan on doing java development
[10:59] <bullgard4> Guest64509: This message is probably an indication for your trouble. Replace this hard disk with a new one.
[10:59] <html> tanath,  that seems really high skill
[10:59] <Guest64509> bullgard4: 1 TB is okee
[10:59] <juniour> i want fro browser
[10:59] <Guest64509> no alternative than replacing?
[10:59] <tanath> html, well, i'm trying to set up my android phone, so i can see this becoming a fairly common issue for someone following that guide...
[10:59] <jdhfr> how to enable precise repository?
[11:00] <lupzz> jrib, OK
[11:00] <Stereocaulon> Faris, no I don't.
[11:00] <bullgard4> Guest64509: I do not understand the word "by" in your message "[11:58]	<Guest64509>	bullgard4: by 300 GB SMART not supported". Please say it in other words.
[11:00] <overclucker> juniour: then you want the jre
[11:00] <lupzz> no time to file a bug on this right now
[11:00] <Stereocaulon> Faris, here you are: www.tschai.nl/vimrc
[11:00] <lupzz> jrib, if someone else thinks that this should be solved file a bug on this too, I will vote it
[11:00] <Guest64509> bullgard4: i don't have mi\uch money - i'm a student
[11:00] <juniour> hi but i am installing jdk any problem
[11:01] <Stereocaulon> Faris, put it in /etc/vim for machine-wide settings.
[11:01] <html> tanath,  for ?   teamveiwer s a good alround app
[11:01] <juniour> it will also support browser k
[11:01] <html> tanath,  theres an app for that
[11:01] <Guest64509> bullgard4: by the externe hadrdisk with 300 GB is written that smart status is not supported
[11:02] <tanath> html, when using openvpn. phone has built-in vpn, and ubuntu has openvpn...
[11:02] <tanath> html, teamviewer does more than i might be looking for...
[11:02] <Faris> Stereocaulon danke
[11:02] <tanath> html, but thanks
[11:03] <Stereocaulon> Faris, I'm not German, in Dutch it would be: "bedankt"
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> should I see a wlan0 entry when I enter ifconfig
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> ?
[11:03] <Stereocaulon> Faris, but anyway, you are wellcome :-)
[11:03] <CaptainQuirk> My Wi-fi card doesn't seem to work anymore
[11:03] <stianhj> Where can I get a list of recent changes? Installed a bunch of updates this morning and the system changes ae to æ everywhere (it's actually an a and an e, but it's displayed as æ)
[11:04] <or4n9e> jrib: ok, I now have the sources but how do I modify the build process now? I mean, my reasoning is to change/add a configure flag obviously not appended with the default ubuntu package
[11:04] <stianhj> So if I go to mediaelements.net, it's displayed as mediælements.net in my address bar..
[11:04] <bullgard4> Guest64509: "[12:01]	<Guest64509>	bullgard4: by the externe hadrdisk with 300 GB is written that smart status is not supported" <-- This means that this hard disk cannot be analyzed for hardware errors thorougly. You can use this hard disk only at greater risk. One risk could be a bug similar to that which you described at the outset.

[11:08] <orated> ?
[11:09] <bullgard4> ikonia: I suspected that too.
[11:09] <theadmin> tokam: Discussion of anything illegal is offtopic on this network.
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> synaptic is not longer installed in ocelot right?
[11:09] <theadmin> lotuspsychje: Not by default
[11:09] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: that wasn't exactly illegal, was it?
[11:09] <juniour_> hi
[11:09] <theadmin> lotuspsychje: I beleive it's still in the repos though
[11:10] <bullgard4> Guest64509: What do you mean by "it"? The external high-capacity hard disk?
[11:10] <lotuspsychje> theadmin: i think the !aptopncd still reccomends synaptic
[11:10] <juniour_> guys i disabled unity how to enable it
[11:10] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: He's asking something like "How to secure a Skype chat in such a way that you're safe from law" or something...
[11:10] <Myr> KNUBBIG: Thanks for the help, but its running now :P It was apparently a problem with not being able to execute a file as superuser (by the startup script)

[11:10] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: hehe he asked how to secure Skype chat so he could use it for judges :)
[11:11] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: Oh... that doesn't even make sense
[11:11] <KNUBBIG> Myr: great :)
[11:11] <lotuspsychje> theadmin: ok tnx
[11:11] <Guest64509> bullgard4: which does not support smart
[11:11] <juniour_> hi guys i dissabled mu unity how to enable  it
[11:11] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: He wanted to use Skype chats in court, that was it. Didn't remember the right word, sorry
[11:11] <jdhfr> how to view a package changelog??
[11:11] <LjL> juniour_: how did you disable it?
[11:11] <orated> overclucker: Umm I got only one linux installation, so the second linuxswap partition on sdc5 is not used, right?
[11:12] <jrib> jdhfr: apt-get changelog PACKAGE
[11:12] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: I see, thanks for clearing that up.
[11:12] <KNUBBIG> juniour_: try compizconfig-settings-manager and enable it there (might work)
[11:12] <theadmin> KNUBBIG: My german is far from perfect heh
[11:13] <KNUBBIG> theadmin: mine as well, even though I'm from Germany, so no problem ;p
[11:13] <bullgard4> Guest64509: Try '~$ sudo smartctl', -- '~$ badblocks -nsv -o /root/badblocks.txt /dev/sdb', -- 'sudo smartmonctl -a /dev/sdb',-- '$ sudo smartctl -i /dev/sdb' (mutatis mutandis).
[11:14] <Guest64509> bullgard4: just entering exactly this? I'm quite new to ubunt
[11:15] <juniour> hi guys i dissabled my unity how to enabel it
[11:15] <juniour> thats left doc is also gone
[11:15] <KNUBBIG> juniour: try compizconfig-settings-manager and enable it there (might work)
[11:16] <juniour> knubbing only terminal
[11:16] <juniour> there is nothing
[11:16] <juniour> else
[11:16] <KNUBBIG> juniour: wait a sec
[11:17] <juniour> compiz --replace not working
[11:17] <overclucker> orated: you can use more than 1 swap partition at once. it would be a good idea to check /etc/fstab to make sure /dev/sdc5 doesn't mount as swap if you are planning to remove it.
[11:17] <orated> overclucker: But then why blkid says two swap - http://paste.ubuntu.com/822416/ ?
[11:17] <xsl> Morning all, how can i display some sort of MOTD to users that login in gnome or xfce.
[11:17] <orated> Yes
[11:17] <juniour> how can i open compiz via terminal
[11:17] <KNUBBIG> juniour: tried unity --reset ?
[11:18] <juniour> k
[11:18] <juniour> no
[11:18] <bullgard4> Guest64509: No. I said:  "(mutatis mutandis)".

[11:18] <juniour> hi
[11:19] <Guest64509> bullgard4: what does ""(mutatis mutandis)" mean?
[11:19] <juniour> knubbing thanks worked
[11:19] <KNUBBIG> juniour: np, glad to hear
[11:19] <orated> overclucker: Ok, I will remove it from fstab and delete it. blkid says sdc5 and sdd6 are swap. But only sdd is the partition with linux OS. I don't understand how there exists two swap partitions
[11:20] <overclucker> orated: ubuntu installer finds all swap and adds the mto the fstab.
[11:20] <jdhfr> is it possible to install libreoffice?
[11:22] <juniour_> knbbu i can use rotate cube and unity
[11:22] <juniour_> together
[11:22] <juniour_> hi
[11:23] <KNUBBIG> juniour: it is somehow possible but it's very inconvenient imo, one sec
[11:23] <orated> overclucker: And what are activate/deactivate swap options for in Gparted?
[11:24] <Myr> Guest64509: "After that which has to be changed, has been changed"
[11:24] <juniour_> knubbig i waan to use these 3d
[11:24] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: Bedankt ! let me look into how I can merge them with mine, BTW exposing .viminfo isn't a good idea :P
[11:24] <juniour_> rotate cube
[11:24] <overclucker> orated: 'sudo swapoff /dev/sdc5' in console
[11:24] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, so I 've noticed, that's why I deleted it...
[11:25] <jdhfr> is it possible to install libreoffice?
[11:25] <Guest64509> Myr: i gues what exactly i have to change i have to figure out on my own
[11:25] <grade> ciao
[11:25] <Stereocaulon> jdhfr, yes, just sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[11:25] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: going by the IRC logs, it wasn't available anyways. What is Midnight Commander ?
[11:25] <juniour_> thats y i like ubuntu 10.10
[11:25] <KNUBBIG> juniour_: http://www.tuxgarage.com/2011/05/enable-desktop-cube-in-unity-ubuntu.html
[11:25] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Midnight Commander is a substitute for the Well Known DOS program Norton Commander.
[11:26] <juniour_> knubbig i think 10.10 is better than 11..10
[11:26] <jdhfr> that one is old like mammoth t..d, i need a real one
[11:26] <juniour_> ya
[11:26] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, the Norton before it was taken over by the bumbling company called Symantec. Norton had great products before the takeover.
[11:26] <Myr> Guest64509: Try the command he gave you (without the part with parentesis)
[11:27] <orated> overclucker: Got it. Thanks
[11:27] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: ohh yes, I remember using Norton Ghost , it was something like taking snapshot of your HDD/OS and putting it back if you mess up things. Isn't Norton Antivirus one of the famous antivirus on windows?
[11:28] <Stereocaulon> !mc | wadkar
[11:28] <jdhfr> infamous, that is
[11:28] <overclucker> !info mc
[11:28] <Guest64509> Myr: okee, i wil \l try that
[11:28] <KNUBBIG> Norton isn't exactly my favourite :p
[11:29] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, Norton after the takeover is only Norton in name. The quality went way overboard since then
[11:29] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: overclucker : thanks, I think I will find it useful for my remote connections
[11:30] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, do you like my .bashrc colourtheme? Just make a backup of your own .bashrc and then copy mine over the old one...
[11:31] <KNUBBIG> Stereocaulon: do you have a screenshot?
[11:31] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: hmm, BTW your vimrc doesn't contain much stuff? I think I am looking at wrong vimrc , I need to URL for your /etc/vim/vimrc.local
[11:31] <phix> :D
[11:32] <zennez0009> hello
[11:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: nope, going through the vimrc first, can't replace my .bashrc , has custom git commands and fancy bash prompts , which I depend heavily on, merging is the way to go
[11:32] <zennez0009> im juz wondering how can i remove programs folders and files after i uninstall them
[11:32] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, no, there is no vimrc.local on my box.
[11:32] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: unless I open a new terminal with env reset and source your bashrc, and I cant remember the magic incantation for that
[11:32] <zennez0009> files and folders like .warzone2100
[11:33] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: is this URL correct : http://www.tschai.nl/vimrc ?
[11:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, sourcing is easy, just use . <the file to source>
[11:33] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, yes it *is* a small file.
[11:33] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: might conflict with my old .bashrc exports/stuff
[11:34] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, in that case, don't use it. You are free to do so, but at your own risk of course.
[11:34] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I am intrigued ! Looks like your .bashrc takes care of most of the stuff
[11:34] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, yes, I told you it was a good setup ;-)
[11:34] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: just give me some time, I will get back to you in a moment
[11:34]  * wadkar is reading Stereocaulon 's bashrc
[11:36] <Guest64509> now somting very strang is happening. gedit just disapears after  having itb open a time
[11:37] <Stereocaulon> I have to reset my IRC term, brb
[11:39] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[11:39] <wone2340vnw> why i cant access other irc servers other than this? it takes ages to connect. why?
[11:39] <Ben64> wone2340vnw: /server <other irc server>
[11:40] <wone2340vnw> Ben64, i know, but it takes ages and never connects
[11:40] <Ben64> try another server then
[11:40] <rzec> I have a directory that looks like this : drwxr-x--- 6 gitolite gitolite 4096 2012-01-30 03:33 repositories : and the user I am currently logged in as is part of the gitolite group however when I try to cd into that directory, I get permission denied, what would I get that?
[11:40] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I have almost all of your .bashrc stuff, here's a diff between your's and mine : http://pastie.org/3281666
[11:41] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: Perhaps your ~/.dircolors has the actual settings ? BTW a screenshot would be interesting to look at
[11:41] <wone2340vnw> Ben64, i tried all undernet servers and any of them work
[11:42] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, what kind of files are you working on? I mainly hack some bash/ sed/ awk scripts, not much else
[11:42] <rzec> seems rebooting fixed my issue
[11:42] <incogitatus> hihi
[11:43] <rzec> anyway to fixed that issue without reboot?
[11:43] <mrAZz> i have problem playing .mov file with dvvideo/pcm_s24le, it is all choppy in vlc, and noisy in mplayer. i think i am micssing some codec.
[11:43] <incogitatus> Is this a place I can get a little help with ubuntu, or is there a better channel?
[11:44] <Ben64> incogitatus: this is the perfect channel for ubuntu support
[11:44] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: I do lot of stuff, git + vim + php/apache these days with the usual mix of bash + sed + awk + bit of perl/python hacking
[11:45] <akpk> My WLAN,Bluetooth....etc r nor working....How to check rfkill ??
[11:45] <incogitatus> cool then, I guess I'll just ask.  I'm kind of an ubuntu newbie, so forgive my ignorance please...
[11:46] <incogitatus> I'm trying to resinstall Software-center via terminal, and it's coming ip with an error message saying, " Package 'software-center' has no installation candidate"
[11:46] <incogitatus> is anyone familiar with the fix?
[11:47] <incogitatus> ip=up (typo)

[11:51] <LjL> incogitatus: do other packages install?
[11:51] <zennez0009> hello. why there are still programs folder in home after i uninstall them
[11:51] <LjL> zennez0009: stuff in /home never gets removed on uninstall
[11:51] <zennez0009> thanks ljl
[11:51] <LjL> zennez0009: it's configuration data that you might want to keep, so it stays
[11:51] <html> how do i get my mic to work on my hd camera?
[11:51] <incogitatus> LjL, I can try another package to see, just a sec.
[11:51] <zennez0009> theres no batch removal app?
[11:52] <LjL> zennez0009: the packaging system has no way of knowing what stuff in /home belongs to a given application
[11:52] <incogitatus> LjL: suggest software?
[11:53] <zennez0009> ok. it will juz remain and keep stacking up i guess
[11:53] <zennez0009> unless i manually delete them one by one
[11:53] <zennez0009> it seems the gnome application menu have all the uninstalled program links
[11:54] <zennez0009> they are broken
[11:54] <zennez0009> manually delete them as well?
[11:54] <LjL> incogitatus: dunno, synaptic?
[11:55] <incogitatus> in the terminal, I type "sudo install synaptic" ?

[11:59] <incogitatus> thx ben :) just a sec
[12:00] <LjL> incogitatus: please paste it into http://paste.ubuntu.com/ not in the channel, so i can modify it
[12:00] <Ben64> Saiyans007: find it in the menu, right click, add this launcher to desktop
[12:00] <incogitatus> like this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/822443/
[12:01] <LjL> incogitatus: yes. err, you're seriously on Dapper?
[12:01] <Ben64> dapper :|
[12:01] <Saiyans007> i am using xchat and how do i join other channel?
[12:02] <LjL> Saiyans007: i told you, /join #channel
[12:02] <incogitatus> well, I dunno.  I didn't install it on this computer ...
[12:02] <incogitatus> lemme find out :P
[12:02] <kalgecin> Saiyans007, Server -> join a channel
[12:02] <LjL> incogitatus: Dapper is unsupported by now, and its repositories are gone. that's why you can't install packages.
[12:02] <Ben64> incogitatus: dapper stopped being updated on July 14th, 2009
[12:03] <newcode> hi, I just setup ubuntu on a virtual machine on my mac but for some reason I can't access my web server fomr my mac browser - any clue?
[12:03] <incogitatus> ubuntu 11.10
[12:03] <incogitatus> system info
[12:03] <LjL> incogitatus: uhm then i have no clue why you have the Dapper repos in sources.list
[12:03] <Ben64> incogitatus: what happens if you type "lsb_release -r"
[12:04] <MonkeyDust> incogitatus  to delete the repos, open Synaptic and click Settings - Repositories
[12:04] <LjL> incogitatus: try replacing your current sources.list with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/822448/
[12:05] <incogitatus> Release is 11.10
[12:05] <gulzar> which is that app to set and configure sound? It shows many horizontal bars to configure sound..
[12:05] <MonkeyDust> gulzar  open a terminal and type alsamixer
[12:05] <incogitatus> I can't access synaptic... either it's not installed, or I'm dumb.
[12:06] <dr_willis> its not instaleld by default i belive incogitatus
[12:07] <Ben64> incogitatus: just replace the sources.list with what LjL said. Use "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" to open the file
[12:07] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: no.. not that.. the one I am talking abt is GUI and shows many-many options to configure sound.. My speakes are not giving good sound so want toadjust settings
[12:07] <incogitatus> okay, I pasted, but the file is read only
[12:07] <gulzar> incogitatus: not installed...
[12:07] <gulzar> incogitatus: sudo apt-get install synaptic
[12:07] <LjL> incogitatus: if you open it with "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" as told, it won't be read-only
[12:07] <incogitatus> I guess there's some way to become administrator for the computer?
[12:07] <LjL> gulzar: that won't work.
[12:07] <incogitatus> oooh ok
[12:07] <gulzar> LjL: why?
[12:08] <gulzar> LjL: got it......
[12:08] <Ben64> gulzar: his apt sources are from 2006
[12:08] <MonkeyDust> incogitatus  you need sudo or gksudo for everything outside /home
[12:08] <LjL> gulzar: scroll up, i just had him try it. he's got Dapper repositories in his sources.list, how can he install software?
[12:08] <gulzar> Ben64: Oh!
[12:08] <wadkar> Stereocaulon: here's my typical screen look : http://imgur.com/ZW7KZ
[12:08] <incogitatus> "(gksudo:23059): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap","
[12:08] <LjL> incogitatus: if gedit starts up anyway, ignore that
[12:08] <gulzar> LjL: I just joined now.. but his matter is serious
[12:08] <incogitatus> okay, so I have  bunch of answers :) you guys are awesome, but now I'm not sure which I should choose from :D
[12:09] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: anything?
[12:09] <MonkeyDust> gulzar  an error message could be helpful
[12:09] <LjL> incogitatus: i suggest you try the ones that have a chance of working ;)
[12:09] <incogitatus> heh dankschoen
[12:10] <dr_willis> incogitatus:  read them all and learn what you are doing. just dont do thigs by rote :)
[12:10] <incogitatus> heh, I'm working on that willis. :)
[12:10] <incogitatus> rote isn't always  bad method
[12:11] <dr_willis> yes it can be.
[12:11] <dr_willis> learning the funamentals is never a bad thing.
[12:11] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: no error message.. I have alsamixer-gui but it is basic.. I want more bigger GUI . I used it but don't know what it is called as.
[12:11] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[12:11] <Vodokotlic> hi, i have a problem, cannot click on adobe flash player settings http://oi44.tinypic.com/246m51e.jpg
[12:11] <sattu94> Hi, does the 64-bit server cd load a 32bit kernel or a 64 bit one to carry out the installation?
[12:11] <incogitatus> let's see, so it seems I need to edit the sources.list to match the current version but I cannot open it any other way than "read only"
[12:12] <LjL> incogitatus: try with "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
[12:12] <Ben64> ew nano :P
[12:12] <gulzar> MonkeyDust: OK just tell me which GUI are available fro ubuntu... in default and others.. I will search from them

[12:15] <monny> why i cant launch counter strike 1.6 on unbutu
[12:15] <gulzar> sattu94: any other

[12:18] <Saiyans007> suppose i want to join #judy for example. How will i know whic network it is on and how will i join it?
[12:18] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  every irc network could have its own #judy
[12:18] <Gerben> Hello. Since 1 week I switched from a (cheap/slow) laptop to using a 27" iMac (little more power) using first nomachine NX, and now thinlinc. Only feature I need now is support for dual monitor. Does anyone know some solution where I can use multiple monitors?
[12:18] <LjL> Saiyans007: /server networkserver      and then    /join #judy. but you must know the network.
[12:18] <monny> my dog shit on my keybord how to fix it
[12:19] <Saiyans007> Thanks LjL
[12:19] <xsl> dr_willis: i need it to show my users.
[12:19] <dr_willis> Gerben:  can you plug in 2 monitors into the box?
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> Gerben  is it an iMac with ubuntu?
[12:19] <Gerben> MonkeyDust, yes
[12:19] <Gerben> forget to tell
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> hey there, my ubuntu install. i belive i can run it from inside windows ?
[12:20] <Gerben> I tried Mac OS for 1 week, but I prefer Ubuntu so I installed that
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> i have seen it intergrated into windows
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> how would i go about doing so ?
[12:20] <dr_willis> JBobAWAY:  you mean use 'wubi' ?
[12:20] <dr_willis> !wubi
[12:20] <MonkeyDust> wubi :(
[12:20] <dr_willis> Most people in here HATE wubi
[12:20] <dr_willis> and dont reccomend it
[12:20] <JBobAWAY> oh i see
[12:20] <Gerben> dr_willis, plug in 2 monitors into the box. Do you mean my client machine or the server?
[12:21] <Ben64> i don't recommend wubi
[12:21] <JBobAWAY> but thanks for the lead
[12:21] <dr_willis> Gerben:  you are a bit vague in what you want and what you are doing..
[12:21] <Saiyans007> we are using anjuta IDE at school so i download it from the software centre...my problem is when i press the build button nothing works let alone execute the program
[12:22] <juniour> hey my graphic is 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
[12:22] <juniour> it will be supporte in ubuntu 11.10
[12:22] <Gerben> dr_willis, At the Office I have an Imac running Ubuntu 11.10. At home I have a Dell Laptop with an external monitor attached. I'd like to have the ability to use both the laptop monitor and the external monitor at home.
[12:22] <Gerben> In some kind of X session/terminal to the iMac running Ubuntu at the office
[12:22] <incogitatus> thanks for the help, but sudo install still isn't working.  I saved (write out) the file sources.list as per : http://paste.ubuntu.com/822448/, and the result still shows: http://imagebin.org/196307
[12:22] <dr_willis> Gerben:  ive used multi monitors in linux with ati, intel, and nvidia gfx chipsets.
[12:23] <Gerben> dr_willis, yes, that is not the issue. The issue is that I need some terminal software that supports multiple monitors.
[12:23] <juniour> can ay one will tell my graphic card is supporte in ubuntu 101.10
[12:23] <mydogsnameisrudy> function key on dell laptop f8 i think
[12:23] <juniour> sr 11.10
[12:24] <Ben64> incogitatus: try "sudo apt-get update" first
[12:24] <Gerben> that guy you just kicked has now joined #debian
[12:24] <dr_willis> Gerben:  as far ive noticved with vnc you can tell it the res to use for its output and have it streatch across both monitors. I tend to just fullscreen it to one monitor
[12:24] <hroi> hi anyone have experience with the lockfile command?
[12:24] <Gerben> dr_willis, yes... I know. But that way I'll have black bars on the screen with the higher resolution
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> ! info lockfile
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> !info lockfile
[12:25] <incogitatus> Ben- updating (apparently).... hasn't done this in a while ;)
[12:25] <hroi> I have created a lockfile test.lock   , yet I can edit the "test" file from another shell...
[12:25] <juniour> hi i wanna to install addition al drivers
[12:25] <hroi> so, another process is able to edit a locked file
[12:25] <hroi> ?
[12:26] <incogitatus> Whoa.  I think it's actually working :)
[12:26] <MonkeyDust> !yay| incogitatus
[12:26] <JBobAWAY> hey another question
[12:27] <Ben64> MonkeyDust: ha, didn't know that one existed
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> i want to use ubuntu like a console
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> not desktop mode
[12:27] <ikonia> disable the desktop then
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> oh choice
[12:27] <JBobAWAY> where would i find that ?
[12:27] <incogitatus> so, just to make sure, the problem was the sources.list was for a different version of ubuntu?
[12:28] <Ben64> incogitatus: yep
[12:28] <cillo564> I have mobile broadband usb stick , how do I set it via eth0
[12:28] <dr_willis> incogitatus:  thats is an issue if you mess up that very imporntant file. :)

[12:28] <MonkeyDust> cillo564  ethernet over usb?
[12:29] <fasad> [question] 11.10 ships with perl 5.12.4, any idea which perl will ubuntu 12.04 ship?
[12:29] <MonkeyDust> fasad  ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:29] <incogitatus> Ljl: I might've changed it when trying to use aircrack or something ... copying and pasting, blah blah.  I haven't programmed computers since 1985.
[12:29] <Ben64> fasad: This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for i686-linux-gnu-thread-multi-64int
[12:29] <fasad> MonkeyDust: oh. thanx.
[12:29] <Ben64> thats what my laptop says right now

[12:31] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  totally wrong.. #channelname
[12:31] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  a server is like 'irc.dal.net' or similer
[12:31] <fasad> Ben64: great. thanks !
[12:31] <saikat> hi.... This is saikat
[12:31] <saikat> can anybody tell me how to solve resolution problem in ubuntu 10.04
[12:31] <Saiyans007> how will i do it?
[12:31] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  most irc clients include lists
[12:32] <overclucker> hroi: man lockfile
[12:32] <dr_willis> Saiyans007:  /server servername    and the dalnet homepage has a list of servers
[12:32] <pikpik> Hi. Ignoring configurability, what would the lightest and fastest window manager be?
[12:32] <Guest64509> bullgard4: what do i have to change and how can i find out how i have to change it?
[12:32] <dr_willis> pikpik:  try jwm
[12:33] <incogiatus> alright guys, software center is installed and working, updates are working.  You guys are amazing :)
[12:33] <pikpik> dr_willis: I'm using that.
[12:33] <dr_willis> pikpik:  if theres any lighter ive not noticed them.
[12:33] <pikpik> dr_willis: Cool. Thanks.
[12:33] <dr_willis> pikpik:  unless you try some ultra-no-feature wm's
[12:33] <ikonia> dr_willis: what as the legacy default x11 that used to get launched from xdm
[12:33] <incogiatus> Thanks for the help!
[12:33] <dr_willis> jwm is smaller then twm i belive.
[12:33] <DrDank> Wow, first time linux user.. This takes some major getting use too.. lol
[12:33] <ikonia> can't remember it's name
[12:33] <jdhfr> is it possible to install REAL libreoffice? not the junk i have installed
[12:33] <dr_willis> of course theres download size, then mem used size :)
[12:33] <dr_willis> !info twm
[12:33] <ikonia> jdhfr: what is not real about what you have installed
[12:34] <dr_willis> !info jwm
[12:34] <cillo564> MonkeyDust, my problem is that id like to use internet in mac mini so i put ethernet cable between mac mini and this ubuntu LTS where is the mobile broadband usb stick
[12:34] <jdhfr> ikonia: it's very archaic
[12:34] <ikonia> jdhfr: so your real question is "I want a newer version"
[12:34] <dr_willis> for size/featureset/  for a minimal wm.. jwm is hard to beat.
[12:34] <pikpik> dr_willis: Gotcha. Thanks. :)
[12:34] <jdhfr> ikonia: real one is in precise but i cannot update without maiming my system
[12:34] <dr_willis> other minimal wms often have features missign that people want... like a easy to get to launcher menu.
[12:34] <bullgard4> Guest64509: The most important change which you have to make in the commands that I gave you, is to adapt to the partition number of your particular setup.
[12:35] <html> is ubuntu good with sound cards?
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: please stop calling it "real" there is nothing unofficial about it
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: you just want a newer version ?
[12:35] <pikpik> dr_willis: Yeah, I'm happy with something minimal.
[12:35] <jdhfr> ikonia: yes 2.5 version
[12:35] <html> sound cards | html
[12:35] <ikonia> html: no more/less than any other linux distribution
[12:35] <dr_willis> pikpik:  i tend to use jwm or icewm for my vnc sessions.
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: you'll need to hunt for a PPA or build your own, however be aware of the risks with that
[12:35] <ikonia> jdhfr: or wait for 12.04 to be released and upgrade
[12:36] <pikpik> dr_willis: I get the feeling that icewm is a little glitzier?
[12:36] <jdhfr> risks from text editor? i don't understand
[12:36] <dr_willis> pikpik:  its a bit more customizeable. but its a bit on the old-skool side. some features in it dont work like they should any more
[12:36] <ikonia> jdhfr: no, risks from using a PPA or building your own
[12:37] <pikpik> dr_willis: Oh, I see. :(
[12:37] <Gami> I've had a problem with Ubuntu 11.10 regarding my internet speed. I have an ethernet cable that goes to a router that goes to a modem. Wireless internet works great on my iPhone and iPad and I have no speed issues when I use Windows 7. Sometimes internet will be very slow for extended periods of times on Ubuntu, or sometimes not even work. Any idea where to start? I googled a lot and tried a few solutions a while ago, but never managed to fi
[12:37] <Gami> x the problem.
[12:37] <Guest64509> bullgard4: how can i find the partition number i need?
[12:37] <pikpik> dr_willis: Well, cool. I guess I'll be happy with JWM. :)
[12:37] <zennez0009> guyz. how can i get tomboys note "create new note" hotkey to work!
[12:38] <zennez0009> : (
[12:38] <dr_willis> pikpik:  you might want to check out what the tinycorelinux guys are using and how they have jwm themed.  looks very nice for a minimal desktop

[12:38] <html> html | sound cards
[12:39] <CoolCoder> I have 2 php installed on my Ubuntu. one is lampp and other. i am using lampp now. when I try to install imagick, It says "Class 'imagick' not found " But it shows 'imagick'. where can i find the DLL? why its not enabling. is it because of 2 apache configuration?
[12:39] <ikonia> html: you've already done that and it didn't work
[12:39] <cillo564> does someone has answer to my question MonkeyDust seems to be afk
[12:39] <ikonia> html: why would doing it again make it start working ?
[12:39] <html> !html | sound cards
[12:39] <CaptainQuirk> how can I know what's wrong ?
[12:39] <CaptainQuirk> hardware problem, driver issue ?
[12:40] <bullgard4> Guest64509: The most intuitive way is look them up in the GParted program. Alternatives: '~$ sudo fdisk -l', '~$ df -h'.
[12:40] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: you should provide details so someone can try to help you. wireless chipset, laptop model, etc
[12:41] <CaptainQuirk> hp pavillon g6, ubuntu 10.04, realtek wireless controller
[12:41] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, when I do ifconfig, I don't have any wlan section
[12:41] <Ben64> well that is a problem... which realtek chip
[12:43] <CaptainQuirk> don't remember
[12:43] <Guest64509> bullgard4: okee, i will try it
[12:43] <Gami> anyone?
[12:43] <bullgard4> Guest64509: r
[12:44] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: you can probably check from "lspci | grep -i rtl"
[12:44] <CaptainQuirk> well, I don't have anything else than an ethernet controller
[12:45] <Ben64> lspci will show it even if it doesn't show up under ifconfig
[12:45] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, I have Three entries with lspci | grep Realtek
[12:45] <quixotedon> all: the notification just pops up and says the system is running out of space (1.1 GB left), any suggestion to clear some space?
[12:45] <CaptainQuirk> Network controller, Ethernet controller and something called Class ff00
[12:46] <CaptainQuirk> weird
[12:46] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: try "rtl" instead of "Realtek"
[12:47] <CaptainQuirk> only thing i get with lspci | grep "RTL" is the ethernet controller
[12:48] <Ben64> CaptainQuirk: have you seen this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1831214
[12:49] <Stereocaulon> wadkar, I would not call that hideous. I would disable transparencies though
[12:49] <mkjackson1> Hey folks, google's no help
[12:50] <CaptainQuirk> Ben64, looks like a post I followed to add patches : http://admaris.com/wp/blog/2011/07/03/ubuntu-on-hp-g6-laptop-tales-from-the-grave/
[12:50] <mkjackson1> trying to fix my audio but when I go to sudo apt-get install --reinstall libasound2 I get an error
[12:50] <CaptainQuirk> I applied all the patches, recompiled but nothing has changed

[12:50] <mkjackson1> none of the threads seem to resolve this symptom

[12:59] <juniour> hi guys which is the best web cam software
[13:00] <auronandace> juniour: try cheese (avoid asking for "best")
[13:00] <yjaradin> or Camorama
[13:00] <dr_willis> totally depens on your needs as to whats best for you
[13:01] <auronandace> quixotedon: if you have multiple kernels installed you could uninstall the oldest ones

[13:07] <Stereocaulon> sorry^
[13:08] <jdhfr> does anyone knows if kde has irc channel for users?
[13:08] <nwp> anyone got any idea of the latest driver support situation for new iMacs?
[13:08] <nwp> are video drivers working properly, for example?
[13:08] <Pici> jdhfr: Try #kde to start... or #kubuntu if thats what you're using.
[13:09] <quixotedon> nwp: out of topic
[13:09] <nwp> quixotedon: srsly?
[13:10] <nwp> quixotedon: where do I find that then?
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> nwp: they will be part of the default install if they use intel GPUs
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> nwp: or use the driver install app if you use nvida or ati gpu
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> nwp: i suggest you use a liveCD or usb and simply trial the OS
[13:11] <nwp> ActionParsnip: really the question is "can they be made to work reliably?" - I know the theory, and in theory theory is the same as practice, but in practice... let's just say I have experienced problems
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> nwp: they can with good settings. i can't personally tell you more as I'm smart and don't buy apple rubbish
[13:13] <bullgard4> '~$ synclient -m 100; Can' access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled? Failed to connect to X Server.' What does »SHM« stand for?
[13:13] <angelete2> hi
[13:13] <nwp> ActionParsnip: ha. actually they're very nice machines to use, when the driver support is there. But I'm sure that really is getting OT
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> nwp: its overpriced for what it is, you can get the same grunt for half the price with a regular pc
[13:13] <Kaellan> annyone here got experience with apache server in ubuntu and may lend me a hand get it started for me ? :)
[13:13] <angelete2> i have one server virtualized with 2 network adapters: eth0:<IP_ADDRESS>6, eth1:<IP_ADDRESS>
[13:14] <angelete2> my default gateway is 0.1
[13:14] <nwp> bullgard4: shm = shared memory
[13:14] <angelete2> i've connected another device to 1.X network, using 1.12 as default gateway
[13:14] <ActionParsnip> nwp: try oneiric in liveUSB etc, you can even enable the proprietary driver if available
[13:14] <angelete2> i can ping 1.12, but can't access internet
[13:14] <angelete2> any help, please?
[13:15] <nwp> ActionParsnip: ok, worth a go. at least if it works that way, it will definitely work on a proper install. Can't be so sure if it doesn't, but it's a start
[13:15] <bullgard4> nwp: Thank you for your help.
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: if you run:   echo "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" | sudo tell /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null        does the web work ok?
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> s/tell/tee
[13:15] <nwp> bullgard4: sorry I can't actually help you with the problem...
[13:16] <angelete2> where should i execute it?
[13:16] <btaylor927> I'm using an Atheros AR242x wifi adaptor in 11.10 64 bit and the connectivity is very spotty compared to windows. It maintains a connection but some pages won't load first time and getting msn to connect in empathy is a real chore. Are there issues with this chip in ubuntu?
[13:16] <bullgard4> nwp: Right. I will do some more snooping. I suspect a bug.
[13:17] <dr_willis> bullgard4:  i was thinkign shmconfig was a xorg.conf file setting. or was at one time. theres been a lot of changes to the touchpad synaptic drivers in the last few releases
[13:18] <bullgard4> dr_willis: Thank you for your information. (Yes, I never had this error in old Ubuntu releases.)
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: try disabling ipv6 (assuming you don't use it), with the boot option:  ipv6.disable=1
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: in a terminal, remember to correct my typo too
[13:19] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: now i can't even ping to 1.12!
[13:20] <btaylor927> I just add that to grub conf, right ActionParsnip?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: that changes your DNS servers so wouldn't affect that if you are pinging by IP
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: no, you NEVER change grub.conf
[13:20] <neronin> Im going crazy here, i cant get my ftp server to work properly, i have tried vsftpd, proftpd and pureftpd. I can set them up as far as i can see but when i try to log in (from a remote ip) i can not authenticate, the user name gets accepted but not the password. Anyone recognize this?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> btaylor927: you add it in /etc/defaul/grub    in the quotes with:  quiet splash    then run:  sudo update-grub
[13:21] <phlegx> Hi! A question. Why my Ubuntu make disk checks for errors on every boot?
[13:21] <angelete2> ok, already ping (my fault, i was pinging to 191.168....)
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> phlegx: unhealthy disk, try a better check in liveCD
[13:21] <dr_willis> phlegx:  improper shutdown, perhaps a bug/date set wrong.  failing hd.
[13:21] <angelete2> ping www.google.es can resolve name, but cannot ping it
[13:22] <Find> -Ping- angelete2 : 0.267 second/s
[13:22] <angelete2> i have ip_forward enabled
[13:23] <Pici> neronin: Are you sure that you're actually hitting your ftp server when you try to login remotely? Do you see your attempt in your logs?
[13:24] <neronin> Pici:  yes i do
[13:24] <neronin> I see myself as an not yet authenticated user
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: the resolv.conf is the dns servers of the system, so if yu were pinging by name it would make sense, but you were pinging by IP
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[13:25] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: no, i can't (i can from .0.136 server, but no from the other device)
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: is the server acting as a router?
[13:26] <angelete2> i'm trying to do this
[13:26] <angelete2> (sorry, i haven't explained myself correctly)
[13:26] <phlegx> Thx, for the answer. The shutdown works perfectly. I have disk encryption, can this be the problem?
[13:27] <neronin> Pici:  and by the way, the users i have problems with are virtual users, i can log in with my real user
[13:27] <Pici> neronin: Ah.  I'm not really familiar with that bit of using vsftpd. I've only used real user accounts.
[13:28] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: what else should i do in order to connect .1.X devices to inernet?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> neronin: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/settingup-an-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-with-proftpd.html
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: do they have the correct default gateway set?
[13:28] <Guest91918> hey guys
[13:29] <angelete2> .1.11 has .1.12 as gateway,  the server has .0.1 as gateway and .1.12 as eth1 (no gateway stablished)
[13:29] <xzil0> i got a question about vstpd. i can connect to my ftp server with real user name. The problem is that i cant delete or upload any file to /var/www .
[13:29] <xzil0> vsftpd*
[13:29] <Guest91918> i have problem here when i m trying to login through shell all i get is login is incorrect and i m typing the right pass
[13:30] <Guest91918> i use ubuntu 11.10
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Guest91918: do you have a full partition for / or for /home (if it is seperate)?
[13:30] <jwtiyar> can someone tell where is Source.list file?
[13:30] <maxximus> would ubuntu 10.14 "know" why my pc hangs from time to time?
[13:30] <Guest91918> full
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: /etc/apt/sources.list  if you mean the apt list file..
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Guest91918: that's why. Press CTRL+ALT+F1 and run:  sudo apt-get clean    also uninstall unused kernels to free space
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> maxximus: how do you mean?
[13:31] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip,THANK U, I WANT TO DELETE 12.04 CODE NAME BECUASE AFTER EVERY UPDATE SHOWS PARTIAL UPGRADE
[13:32] <Guest91918> ok thnx
[13:32] <maxximus> actionparsnip... like a log or event viewer? hehe
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: why in caps?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> jwtiyar: then ask in #ubuntu+1   messing with sources.list is not how you upgrade
[13:33] <Guest91918> ActionParsnip: login incorrect again everytime
[13:33] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip, sorry ,
[13:34] <overclucker> xzil0: you change vsftpd user and group to your own, then chown /var/www

[13:34] <joel> This is the default web page for this server.
[13:34] <Guest13138> I want to remove the webserver
[13:34] <Guest13138> How do I do that?
[13:34] <xzil0> overclucker: ill try that out :)
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Guest13138: stop the service and it won't be contactable
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: how
[13:35] <jwtiyar> ActionParsnip, i think after i added an oppositroy to source
[13:35]  * jdhfr thinks why Guest13138 is in charge of server if he has to ask such questions
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: I don
[13:35] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: I dont even know what service is running
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> maxximus: there are logs in /var/log  or you can use system-log-viewer
[13:36] <Guest13138> ActionParsnip: VLC-Share installed it for me and then I removed VLC-Share but it stayed
[13:36] <maxximus> thanks ActionParsnip
[13:36] <angelete2> ActionParsnip: any other suggestion?
[13:36] <subb1> hi all. I have an issue with  the vi editor in lucid
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> angelete2: i'd ask in ##networking too, they may be able to point the breakdown out
[13:37] <wolfric> i did apt-get source nscd, and i got this "Picking 'eglibc' as source package instead of 'nscd'".... why?
[13:37] <wolfric> it actually downloaded eglibc
[13:37] <wolfric> no nscd
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Guest13138: I'd check what the app installs as deps, see if anything sounds suspect
[13:38] <btaylor927> ActionParsnip, I just added the ipv6 disabling  line to grub and rebooted. How can I check to see if I did it right?
[13:38] <xuser> hi
[13:39] <subb1> when i open files with vi, then input i for starting to edit. then when i type my alphabets or numbers or <backspace> , it is behaving strangely !! The characters i type are not the ones being written and sometimes the cursor jumps around randomly when i press a key. whats the issue?
[13:39] <phlegx> ActionParsnip, Thx, for the answer. The shutdown works perfectly. I have disk encryption, can this be the problem?
[13:39] <xuser> how can i install gyache on ubuntu 11.10?
[13:39] <faLUCE> hi, occasionally the shutdown button on my desktop hangs. How can I solve? (oneiric 11.10)
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> phlegx: no idea, worth scanning it though. I dnt use encryption so couldn't comment on how it would affect stuff
[13:39] <sipior> subb1: you're firing up vi in a terminal, or?
[13:39] <phlegx> ActionParsnip, ok
[13:40] <subb1> sipior, yes . in command line. due to this issue of vi, i use gedit now.
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> xuser: its a dead project but you could compile it
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | xuser  there may be a ppa too
[13:40] <sipior> subb1: does the same problem occur in other terminal-based editors? (nano, &cet.)
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> subb1: could use nano, its a bit friendlier
[13:41] <xuser> yes but it supports webcam on yahoo
[13:41] <xuser> :P
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> xuser: i'm aware of it
[13:41] <sipior> subb1: put another way, does the problem also occur in gvim?
[13:41] <xuser> another im client with yahoo webcam suppoart?
[13:41] <subb1> sipior, it does not occur in nano though
[13:42] <subb1> sipior, i dont have gvim..
[13:43] <sipior> subb1: easy enough to install. might be useful in localising the problem.
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> xuser: http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/download.shtml   have fun
[13:43] <subb1> sipior, is it vim-gtk package
[13:43] <subb1> or vim-gnome?
[13:43] <sipior> subb1: that's the one
[13:44] <xuser> but, do you know other im client with yahoo webcam support?
[13:44] <subb1> sipior, installing now.
[13:44] <Ronis_BR> does anyone have a dell laptop with Dell datasafe software?
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: I have a dell lappy but no datasafe software

[13:45] <html> xuser,   how did you get your web camera/ sound to work??
[13:46] <Lolo_> Hi, anyone knows how to use zenity --progress with unrar in order to have a progression bar during an extract ? TY
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: looks like some cloud storage thing
[13:46] <Ronis_BR> ActionParsnip: I saw that this software can mess with grub... I wondering how can I avoid it... there many ways on internet, but I want to be sure.
[13:46] <xuser> i can use webcam with gyache
[13:46] <Ronis_BR> ActionParsnip: it is used to restore your system, create DVD backups
[13:46] <sipior> subb1: you mean you're logged into a remote host, running vim from there?
[13:46] <xuser> i aleready tried this
[13:46] <xuser> and works
[13:46] <jrib> Lolo_: why not just use file-roller?
[13:47] <sipior> subb1: what is the output of "echo $TERM" in that terminal?
[13:47] <subb1> sipior, no. not remote host
[13:47] <tam> does anyone know how i fix php not loading the mysql extension because i didnt install it from the repo, i installed a the 5.5 from a custom repo
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> Ronis_BR: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1456519
[13:47] <sipior> subb1: then i'm afraid i don't understand what you were getting at.
[13:47] <subb1> sipior, oh the issue is not what you expected?
[13:47] <xuser> but ,do you know another im client with yahoo webcam support?
[13:47] <xuser> excepting gyache
[13:48] <sipior> subb1: i meant that i don't understand your "it's not local to my system" comment.
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> xuser: why not make life easier and move to a protocol with apps with webcam support like emesene
[13:49] <subb1> sipior, oh i meant to stress that it is not an issue of my pc hardware/software config. I have seen the same issue on my frineds pc also, having lucid
[13:49] <sipior> subb1: i see.
[13:49] <xuser> im from romania
[13:49] <xuser> here peoples use yahoo
[13:50] <xuser> people use yahoo here
[13:50] <xuser> *
[13:50] <subb1> sipior, installed gvim
[13:50] <xuser> so?
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> xuser: you have asked the sam people multiple times, nobody knows. Try later or post on the forums
[13:51] <subb1> sipior, no issue on using gvim to edit.
[13:51] <xuser> ok
[13:51] <sipior> subb1: that's encouraging. what is the value of the TERM environmental variable in your terminal?
[13:51] <xuser> i will use gyache
[13:51] <subb1> xterm
[13:51] <subb1> sipior,  xterm
[13:52] <sipior> subb1: does the problem occur when you launch "vim" (not "vi"). those should be the same, but...
[13:52] <sipior> subb1: also, you might try launching the editor as "vim -u NONE", but i don't think the vimrc is at fault in this case.
[13:53] <subb1> sipior, normal vim also no issue.
[13:53] <evilbug> having trouble with unity loading properly on 11.10. this happened suddenly two days ago without installing updates or modifying the system in any way. the issue only shows up on my account but guest loads fine. any clues?
[13:53] <faLUCE> hi, occasionally the shutdown button on my desktop hangs. How can I solve? (oneiric 11.10)
[13:53] <sipior> subb1: well, there you go :-)
[13:53] <dmtarmey> hello does anyone know were i can get some advice on science software pls?
[13:53] <Lolo_> jrib : i want to use it in a .sh
[13:53] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: does it happen as a new user?
[13:54] <martian> I just woke up this morning to find that my mysql server instance had seemingly crashed and refuses to start. The only error I get is "start: job failed to start". How can I further debug this?
[13:54] <sipior> subb1: not sure why vi should cause that sort of problem in compatibility mode.
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: ?
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> martian: ask in an sql channel too
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: no
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: same user
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: did you make a fresh user to test?
[13:54] <faLUCE> ActionParsnip: no, I used the same user
[13:54] <subb1> sipior, yes. I have used centos, redhat, debian. not seen this weird vi issue there.
[13:55]  * jdhfr is confused with people running mysql or apache on ubuntu
[13:55] <subb1> sipior, is it related to the desktop env gnome?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: then make a new user and log in as that and test, if it is the same then the app is at fault, if it is ok then your user settings are causing the issue
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> faLUCE: using the same user tests nothing at all
[13:55] <sipior> subb1: possible, but unlikely.
[13:56] <sipior> subb1: use vim/gvim and be happy :-)
[13:56] <sipior> subb1: there's also a #vim here on freenode, if you other problems/questions.
[13:57] <echo_> I use archlinux at times and wrote a script that I put under /etc/rc.d/functions.d/  what is the equivalent in Ubuntu?
[13:57] <subb1> sipior, ok noted that. if i login to remote hosts will i be able to use gvim?
[13:57] <sipior> subb1: yes, login via "ssh -X ..."
[13:57] <sipior> subb1: frankly, sticking to the console is easier/faster.
[13:57] <subb1> sipior, oh only if i login graphically right?
[13:57] <Whitesquall> subb1: you can you tramp in emacs =)
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> echo_: what does the folder do?
[13:57] <Whitesquall> *use
[13:58] <martian> ActionParsnip: If I run mysqld manually as root, the server starts fine so I'm wondering if there was some unattended backup action last night or something that may have done this. I'll keep on searching, but any suggestions are welcome ;)
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> martian: the guys in #mysql may be able to point to what's going on, at least you can get the service up
[13:58] <subb1> Whitesquall, not sure of those. new to linux actually. its my learning time :)
[13:58] <martian> ActionParsnip: yeah, boss off my back for now =D
[13:59] <subb1> sipior: thanks for showing up for help. gooday !
[13:59] <sipior> subb1: yep, same to you.

[14:00] <Sjors> Hi
[14:00] <asrockubuntu> Hallo could u please help me? I can't open xbcm now, I have some errors when I do sudo apt-get upadte
[14:00] <Sjors> When is ubuntu 10.04.4 coming out? it was planned for 8 days ago
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> echo_: so it runs at shutdown and startup then?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> asrockubuntu: xbmc isn't supported here
[14:02] <asrockubuntu> right so how may I erase a program from terminal?
[14:05] <echo_> ActionParsnip No so all the log files are written to the SSD and not lost since I keep them in RAM.
[14:06] <ahmad> #ubuntu-ir
[14:06] <echo_> ActionParsnip I guess a normal shutdown like you said is "shutdown -hP now" but I want my script to be running when the system is halting to do the write.
[14:06] <asrockubuntu> Action Parsnip : how may I erase a program? sudo apt-get xxxxx remove?
[14:08] <echo_> asrockubuntu sudo apt-get remove --purge nameofprogram (will get all the config files etc)
[14:08] <rztjm__> sudo apt-get remove xxxx
[14:08] <CaptainQuirk> Hi
[14:09] <echo_> asrockubuntu yeah just using remove is safer but will leave a bunch of junk on your system.
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> Can I customize the "screen" multiplexer so that I have a sort of buffer zone between "regions"
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> like padding or margin in a webpage for example
[14:09] <CaptainQuirk> for the sake of legibility
[14:09] <asrockubuntu> ok
[14:10] <echo_> CaptainQuirk screen multiplexer?
[14:10] <CaptainQuirk> echo_, yep
[14:10] <CaptainQuirk> Can't find it in the manual
[14:11] <echo_> CaptainQuirk Hmm are you doing some funky duel headed mult-seat stuff?
[14:11] <CaptainQuirk> echo_, I don't get you
[14:12] <jimmy_birer> join #antiniggers
[14:12] <CaptainQuirk> wtf
[14:13] <echo_> CaptainQuirk Maybe that is some Gnome3 term. I am on xfce as a DE, compiz for wm, emerald as the wm decorator and lightdm as my..well dm. In short idk =/
[14:13] <akpk> wifi icon is missing at top panel,Ubuntu 11.10
[14:15] <echo_> akpk I would think Ubuntu is using wicd. Must be an app I would think in the repos to pop into your panel.
[14:15] <akpk> echo_ wot shud i do ??
[14:16] <auronandace> echo_: ubuntu uses networkmanager and its installed by default
[14:16] <echo_> akpk OK well there should be an app for networkmanager too.
[14:16] <jdhfr> when oneiric service pack 1 will be out?
[14:17] <echo_> akpk is your wifi on?
[14:17] <auronandace> jdhfr: we don't do "service packs"
[14:17] <jdhfr> whatever you fancy to call it, when?
[14:17] <tensorpudding> jdhfr, ubuntu regular releases don't have point releases
[14:17] <tensorpudding> LTS releases do, though
[14:17] <Moshanator> jdhfr, april
[14:18] <echo_> akpk sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart
[14:18] <jdhfr> regular as opposed to what?
[14:18] <tensorpudding> as opposed to the long-term support releases
[14:18] <tensorpudding> which occur every 2 years
[14:18] <tensorpudding> the next is going to be 12.04
[14:18] <auronandace> !lts | jdhfr
[14:18] <tensorpudding> the release cycle for regular releases is 6 months
[14:18] <geekbri> what is the EOL of 10.04? next year?
[14:19] <tensorpudding> april 2013
[14:19] <tensorpudding> on the desktop
[14:19] <tensorpudding> on the server, 2015
[14:19] <geekbri> and server?
 : nothing happend
[14:19] <geekbri> oh ok, so its got a while still
 : nothing happend
[14:19] <tensorpudding> hardy is still under server support
[14:19] <tensorpudding> that's from 2008
[14:20] <echo_> akpk you did not see a msg?
[14:20] <jdhfr> so no chance to upgrade for me? oneiric software is strangely old and buggy, precise looks better
[14:20] <geekbri> isn't the new LTS coming out soon? 12.04?
[14:20] <tensorpudding> yes
[14:20] <tensorpudding> in april

[14:26] <ZynuiMaiche> Hey folks!  I was wondering if anybody here knew the process for installing MATLAB without Wine.  I have an iso (copied the install disk to my HDD).  I've been browsing the internet for a while, and can't determine if I should try and install the repositories (I don't even know what those are...) first and then try and install from the iso or what.  I don't have a disc drive on my netbook...
[14:26] <Duality>  #tkkrlab
[14:26] <ikonia> ZynuiMaiche: matlab is supported on specific ubuntu versions
[14:26] <Duality> oops ignore please :)
[14:27] <ikonia> ZynuiMaiche: if you check the matlab website it lists the supported versions

[14:28] <d4em0n> does anybody here know a IRC SEO  channel ?
[14:28] <seguid> i seem to be having issues installing cheops-ng on ubuntu 11.10
[14:28] <seguid> i cant seem to install gnome-libs-devel
[14:28] <seguid> anyone else facing this issue
[14:28] <seguid> ?
[14:29] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche if you look at the install file is it a deb, bin, source code?
[14:30] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche prolly more then one OS (windows) on there too.
[14:30] <researcher123> why my Ubuntu 11.10 suddenly became slow? How can I find the cause of it and then correct it?
[14:31] <bazhang> !alis | d4em0n
[14:31] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche here is how to do it. http://www.mathworks.se/support/solutions/en/data/1-9VXDYZ/index.html
[14:32] <amandabe1> My sleeping tty7 is black. I can do ctrl-alt-f4 to get a command line only TTY, but I can't wake my gnome session.
[14:32] <ZynuiMaiche> echo_: I'll give it a go.  Thanks for showing that to me, I'm a little embarassed I couldn't find that on my own xD
[14:32] <amandabe1> I didn't do anything unsual -- just walked away from the computer for a bit.
[14:32] <echo_> ZynuiMaiche np
[14:33] <amandabe1> If I jog the mouse, I do see the mouse on my otherwise black screen.
[14:33] <amandabe1> can I troubleshoot this from another TTY?
[14:33] <researcher123> can anyone help in determining th cause of sudden slowed down Ubuntu 11.10?
[14:34] <lohness> researcher123: run htop to see whats up
[14:34] <researcher123> lohness: ok.trying
[14:35] <DrDank> Hey guys.. I have enhanced effects enabled.. Is there a way to tweak the effects?
[14:35] <echo_> amandabe1 could be all sorts of stuff. I am guessing you are using Gnome3 with lightdm. If so try " sudo restart lightdm "

[14:36] <adac> is there anything special to get work /etc/crontab ?
[14:36] <adac> special to do

[14:36] <amandabe1> echo_: thanks.
[14:36] <echo_> =)
[14:36] <echo_> np
[14:37] <echo_> adac no not really. Just a few sec reading how the timing works.
[14:38] <researcher123> lohness: I ran htop but does not make much sense to me. How do I send that output for you to see?
[14:38] <DrDank> Sorry, Im new. Was scrolling through the 'packet manager' and seen 'desktop environments' --- gnome, kde and someothers.. What good are these?
[14:40] <amandabee> echo_: my screen is kind of freaking out in my X session now.
[14:40] <lohness> researcher123: its a program which shows cpu usage and can show memory usage, second for second, so look in the upper left corner if something is using close to 100% of your cpu
[14:40] <amandabee> echo_: If I disconnect the external monitor it seems okay, but plugged in I'm getting black flickers around the edges.
[14:41] <auronandace> DrDank: for your enhanced effects you may want to try adding compiz config settings manager (ccsm)
[14:41] <auronandace> DrDank: different desktop environments appeal to different users
[14:41] <researcher123> lohness: Can you see the image here and advice something http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/688/htopreport.png/
[14:41] <overclucker> researcher123: top -n 1

[14:42] <ronin___> Hi, i download eclipse indigo.tar.gz when I want untar it I've got an error?
[14:42] <DrDank> well this laptop is kinda old.. its nothing super fancy.. I love how the windows act with the effects on.. the jiggle effect I guess you could call it.
[14:42] <researcher123> overclucker: what does it mean? Im newbie
[14:42] <obo> Hi All
[14:42] <amandabee> echo_: i am (I think).
[14:43] <ronin___> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[14:43] <overclucker> researcher123: oh, i was just giving you a command with pastebinable output
[14:43] <ronin___> what does it mean?
[14:43] <DrDank> Installing ccsm now.
[14:43] <martian> Earlier I had a problem starting mysql. It crashed overnight it seems and would not start using the init.d script or 'service' tool. I was able to start it manually using 'sudo mysqld'. Is there anywhere I could find a log of why the init script was failing?
[14:43] <researcher123> overclucker: ok.thanks
[14:44] <llutz> ronin___: it does mean your file is " not in gzip format", easy
[14:44] <DrDank> it said installation/removal failed. :-\
[14:44] <obo> Could someone help  how to configure  evolutution with microsoft exchange 2003 server?
[14:45] <DrDank> well that was simple ccsm.. -- the advanced worked.
[14:45] <researcher123> what can be done to identify the cause of a suddenly slowed down PC?
[14:45] <Datum_Errata> ronin___: tar -xvf file.tar
[14:45] <ronin___> llutz: I know but i download eclipse indigo and now i want install it!
[14:45] <Datum_Errata> rather, tar -xzvf file.tar.gz
[14:45] <echo_> amandabee Might be an issue with Gnome3 and rendering with the drivers your using. I use to use bleeding edge xorg and mesa with Nvidia and always had stuff like that happen. Expressly if I was compositing with Compiz
[14:46] <ronin___> Datum_Errata: same error again?
[14:46] <llutz> ronin___: either you file is broken or you did somenthing wrong to untar it. "tar xzf file.tar.gz"  check "file file.tar.gz" if it really is gzipped
[14:46] <Datum_Errata> ronin___:no, the error is different
[14:46] <llutz> ronin___: should say something like "gzip compressed data"
[14:46] <cokesmoke> Hi, anyone know how to get a VNC running Gnome to start at boot?
[14:47] <martian> obo: What aspect of it are you having trouble with?
[14:47] <ronin___> llutz: for file file.tar i've got file.tar: data
[14:47] <llutz> ronin___: tar or tar.gz? tar xf file.tar
[14:48] <llutz> ronin___: you talked about tar.gz before, not about plain .tar
[14:48] <Datum_Errata> ronin___ what command are you executing?
[14:48] <ronin___> llutz: same error: tar: Child returned status 1
[14:48] <llutz> ronin___: i'd say broken file
[14:49] <ronin___> Datum_Errata: I use tar -zxvf or gzip -d in yakuake termianl
[14:49] <researcher123> how to improve PC speed? I am on Ubuntu 11.10 , 64 bit
[14:49] <martian> cokesmoke: this seems like a decent run-through: http://www.abdevelopment.ca/blog/start-vnc-server-ubuntu-boot
[14:49] <Datum_Errata> it's either a syntax error or a broken file
[14:50] <bean> researcher123, improving speed is usually hardware related.
[14:50] <llutz> ronin___: get the file again, "tar xzf file.tar.gz" then
[14:50] <martian> researcher123: There is no way to do so. If there was, it would already be build in to the OS.
[14:50] <cokesmoke> I've tried that one, but only got a black windows when I boot. If i boot it manually using vncserver command, eberything seems to work
[14:51] <researcher123> martian: it was suddenly slowed down
[14:51] <researcher123> martian: my pc was fast until last week
[14:51] <quixotedon> researcher123: hardware resources play a big role, while you can reduce the ram by closing unnecessary program you are using

[15:10] <rhom> any Idea how to choose between the networks.. (like eth0 and wlan0) for different application.
[15:11] <Nach0z> rhom: depends on the application I believe. usually they get assigned different IPs, so the application probably has a bind-ip setting that you can set up to make it bind to the IP of a specific interface
[15:12] <pk> Nach0z:  yes it may help me ill try it thanks
[15:12] <rhom> Nach0z: does firefox supports it?

[15:16] <obo> martian: Exact error  is "Exchange server is not compactable with Exchange connector"

[15:17] <th_> hello all
[15:17] <dlentz> saikat, can you pasetbin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[15:17] <_Marcus> Hello th_
[15:18] <saikat> okay
[15:18] <Guest24433> Chinese laguna.
[15:18] <th_> is there anyone who has experience of setuping headless virtualbox? im having trouble with ethernet :(
[15:19] <th_> should command vboxmanage modifyvm "os" --nic1 intnet setup ethernet so my win client can connect to internet?
[15:19] <compdoc> obo, it uses the word 'compactable'   ?
[15:19] <_Marcus> th_: In my opinon(I dont know what others would say), I think that you would get better help in #vbox
[15:19] <_Marcus> Or you can leave...
[15:20] <dlentz> lol
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> Th_ set your network to 'bridged'
[15:20] <th_> hello all
[15:20] <obo> compdoc : oops its compatible
[15:23] <compdoc> obo, Exchange can provide pop3 or imap. I dont know how the Evolution Exchange Connector works, but you dont have to use it. And I'm not sure why you or other ppl have mentioned OWA - its for browsers only.
[15:26] <Myrtti> compdoc: evolution historically has used the OWA as compatibility layer to use calendar /etc features on Exchange.
[15:26] <compdoc> Myrtti, hmmm, interesting
[15:28] <obo> compdoc: If i select microsoft exchange option ,obly popup coming is to give owa url. Meantime i checked with pop3 or imap. But it doesn't help me
[15:28] <Nimanicka> Hello
[15:28] <compdoc> obo, does OWA work otherwise?
[15:30] <compdoc> with my customers, the owa address is:   www.domain.com/exchange
[15:30] <obo> comdoc: it is giving exchange server not compatible with exchange connector. But i'm  using exchage 2003 which is compatible
[15:30] <compdoc> obo, are you on the lan, or outside?
[15:30] <Flugmeise> hi, any idea why pxe boot resets the machine after transmitting the initrd.lz
[15:31] <obo> compdoc : LAN only
[15:32] <antonio96> !list
[15:32] <n3dj4> e

[15:38] <martian> Nimanicka: You probably don't need to be installing norton on Ubuntu
[15:38] <xangua> Nimanicka: why do you exactly want a norton antivirus¿
[15:38] <sipior> Nimanicka: find somewhere else to play.
[15:38] <bazhang> Nimanicka, wine is software, not the drink
[15:38] <cac> bazhang: awesome, was looking for that, thanks
[15:38] <_Marcus> Nimanicka: No, Wine is a program, wine is a drink.

[15:43] <LukeNukem_> i uninstalled unitty and the GUI is now messed up there is no option to logout n stuff
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: gnome-session-save --kill --silent
[15:44] <SaYaNs> gnome-session-save --kill --silent i'll keep taht in mind :)
[15:44] <LukeNukem_> ActionParsnip: command does not exist
[15:45] <LukeNukem_> marcus, logout does not work..exit closes terminal only
[15:45] <Bassy> maybe you guys can help .. i want to install Ubuntu Server .. theres no GUI but there is a command to install the gui I've tried everything .. any ideas?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: or:  sudo service lightdm restart
[15:45] <saikat> i have pasted there.....
[15:45] <Pici> Bassy: What desktop environment did you want to install?
[15:45] <auronandace> Bassy: use apt-get like usual
[15:46] <Bassy> i did .. and i ttried various different environments but i kep getting an error
[15:46] <Bassy> il have to go back and refresh my memory to  ask this question more clearly i cant remember exactly
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> ActionParsnip: it went blank and put me back on the desktop.....
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> maybe i should instal unity and do sudo service lightdm restart
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> how to install unity
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> Bassy: I suggest you install lxde for a light desktop. the whole idea of the desktop is to be desktopless...
[15:47] <bazhang> LukeNukem_, what version of ubuntu
[15:47] <Bassy> lol
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> LukeNukem_: sudo apt-get install unity
[15:47] <Bassy> thanks
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> 11.10
[15:47] <LukeNukem_> installing
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> Bassy: if you need a desktop OS, install a desktop OS
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> ok how to restart
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> i mean
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> how to logout
[15:48] <LukeNukem_> ok
[15:50] <snimavat> Quite dumb - but where all the installed applications are listed in unity desktop ? I mean i see just one side bar - where are all the top menus gone - ?
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: do you mean "file Edit View.." etc
[15:50] <xangua> snimavat: clic the ubuntu icon, then clic the apps icon in the dash
[15:50] <SaYaNs> I think he mean applications,places etc
[15:50] <snimavat> Installed softwares - gparted, video players, chrome or any thing else.
[15:50] <SaYaNs> I want that back
[15:51] <urlin2u> snimavat, the top button in the left bar is called the dash it has a search and buttons at the bottom
[15:51] <samael23> does anybody know to fore the tab to show the text directories in ubuntu 10.10 im kinda lost
[15:51] <snimavat> so i have to search - won't it list apps ? what if i dont remember name !
[15:52] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: if you press your windows key, or click the icon in the top left, the remaining apps are there. You can drag apps to the bar as you please
[15:52] <f4st3r_d0wn> is there some body help me how to sharing file between ubuntu with ubuntu ?
[15:53] <Lachezar> Hi all. I am having weird issue: when I try to ping one specific IP that is not in the LAN, my laptop attempts to ARP it. How come? It's one SPECIFIC IP address.
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> samael23: in a terminal, that is default, you can TAB complete file and folder names
[15:53] <snimavat> okey - there's an option for "show installed apps" in dash home -
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: You need the ethernet address as it is on the same network segment
[15:54] <snimavat> But the older ui was less confusing  - i think
[15:54] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: It is _NOT_ on the same network segment
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> snimavat: if you install xfce4 and log off, then log into the XFCE session, it will probably be more familiar to you
[15:54] <urlin2u> snimavat, I use a app called synapse which opens a search with key prompts and has a dropdown for stuff with what you type in for search.
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: sorry, misread
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: is it just that one IP?
[15:55] <saikat><EMAIL_ADDRESS>   this is my e-mail id...please send me some resolution on it....
[15:55] <SaYaNs> i have associated all my .exe files with wine and so when i open them it istall normally and when i try to open it, it gives me an error. Do i have to install another plugins
[15:55] <snimavat> humn okey - will take few days to get familiar - not an issue
[15:55] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Yes, I can find easily other IPs in the target network, just this one...
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: the file must be marked as executable
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: is there a VPN involved?
[15:55] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Nope.
[15:56] <kermit> my pointer dissapears a lot, is that a setting somewhere?
[15:56] <SaYaNs> how will i do that ActionParsnip
[15:56] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: you should also check the appdb for compatibility
[15:57] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Me(192.168.1.x) <- (wlan) -> (<IP_ADDRESS>) Router (<IP_ADDRESS>) <- LAN -> (192.168.2.y) Target
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: chmod +x filename.exe    obviously you will need to specify path and filename (case sensitive)
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: so your LAN is split into 2 subnets?
[15:57] <SaYaNs> newbies here... :D
[15:58] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: many subnets actually. Not exactly same location.
[15:58] <SaYaNs> do i have to do that from wine or terminal
[15:58] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: I can ping 192.168.2.Z, but not 192.168.2.Y, and tcpdump shows ARP requests for 192.168.2.Y, which is... Well.. WRONG.
[15:58] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: if you have a program called WinApp.exe in your Downloads folder you will run:  chmod +x ~/Downloads/WinApp.exe
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: do you have a route specifying how the <IP_ADDRESS> network
[15:59] <SaYaNs> k. got it.. Thanks
[15:59] <module000> Lachezar: arp'ing the wrong subnet suggests your routes are the problem
[16:00] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: module000: My routing table has a default route, a <IP_ADDRESS>/24 route and a <IP_ADDRESS>/16 route.
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: you should add one for <IP_ADDRESS>/24 too
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> etc
[16:01] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Nah... The router takes care of routing between different networks.
[16:01] <kermit> how do i change the graphics driver X uses?
[16:01] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: The default route works with the other nets, just not _THAT_ host.
[16:03] <Lachezar> What could possibly make my laptop search for a specific host on the local network?
[16:04] <Lachezar> After restart the behaviour persists.
[16:05] <henrik_> Hello - need help with serial port heeeeeelp :-)
[16:06] <kermit> x isnt autodetecting my graphics card.. i had nvidia but now i have an i915 based card.. on a different system it autodetects the same card, so i have to somehow undo whatever nvidia did?
[16:06] <ActionParsnip> kermit: what GPU do you have and what driver gets oaded and which driver do you want to use?
[16:08] <kermit> ActionParsnip: how do i tell which gets loaded?  i want to use i915  i have an intel mobile 4 chipset.
[16:08] <sivakumar> how to get software resources for ubuntu 9.10
[16:09] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades sivakumar
[16:09] <pilot419> Is ubuntu 12.04 out?
[16:09] <bazhang> pilot419, not til april, no
[16:10] <ikonia> if you don't even know if an OS is out, should you really consider using it ?
[16:10] <LjL> sivakumar: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ but you should upgrade
[16:10] <sivakumar> i am trying to install patch package in ubuntu 9.10 but i am getting the error package is not found and have to get from another resources
[16:11] <bazhang> sivakumar, it's end of life, you need to upgrade
[16:11] <kermit> ActionParsnip: brb im trying dpkg-reconfigure
[16:13] <Lachezar> Update: I can see an ARP (incomplete) for the 192.168.2.Z address, and can _NOT_ delete it: arp -d -i wlan0 192.168.2.Z
[16:13] <sivakumar> bazhang, if i upgrade means then the version of ubuntu will change na ....
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: try prefixing with sudo
[16:13] <bazhang> sivakumar, for support, thats what you need to do
[16:13] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: :) Not that noobish.
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> sivakumar: EOL releases are not supportedf in any way you can name
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: covering the bases
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> Lachezar: could restart network service, shoul wipe it clean afaik
[16:14] <strange> hey guys my sound just stopped working out of nowhere
[16:14] <_Marcus> strange: Are you using headphones?
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> strange: try:  killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse*   then wait a few seconds then try sound applications
[16:15] <strange> _Marcus: no its a laptop with built in speakers it worked up untill a few minutes ago
[16:15] <strange> ok lets ee
[16:15] <Lachezar> ActionParsnip: Yep the ARP (incomplete) is gone with .../networking restart
[16:16] <strange> thanks you ActionParsnip
[16:16] <strange> taht worked
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> :)
[16:17] <SaYaNs> ActionParship is like GOOGLE :)
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: just been on the OS long enough
[16:17] <ActionParsnip> SaYaNs: i prefer to be compared to duckduckgo too =D
[16:21] <kermit> ActionParsnip: the resolution is right this time, but judging from glxgears, theres no acceleration support (and thus no compiz)
[16:22] <carbon__> simple question if someone has a second.  In the terminal if I "cd /" I get my root directory but if I accidentally "cd \" ( backslash)  I get a ">"  What is the  >.  ?
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> kermit: you make that sound bad ;)
[16:22] <Manehattan> hello,. I have a huge problem with installing ubuntu on my newly bought laptop and I'm really desperate by now
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: it wants you to continue the command
[16:22] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: what happens when you try?
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: you can use \ to break up a line of code to multiple lines so it's more readable, you can just press CTRL+C and it will stop
[16:23] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: The live usb works, I can install ubuntu fine, every thing works, until I reboot: The laptop insists there no OS installed
[16:23] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: is the internal drive set as the bootable device in BIOS?
[16:24] <Manehattan> I am on the fifth re-installation
[16:24] <Manehattan> yes it is
[16:24] <kermit> ActionParsnip: so i know this card is supported, i have the same model on another system.. just this system where i swapped cards, its not being detected
[16:24] <Manehattan> even when go into boot menu and force booting from it, it insists there is no OS
[16:24] <ActionParsnip> Manehattan: if you boot with the USB stick in then tell it to boot the internal drive, does it boot?
[16:24] <kermit> is there a place where i can see the what the graphics auto detection process was doing to know maybe why it failed?
[16:24] <Manehattan> ActionParsnip: I will try that now
[16:24] <Guest61356> clear
[16:24] <carbon__> actionparsnip:  ohh.  So if I was typing a long line of code in a basic editor i could "codecodecode \ codecodecode" then exicute it all in one line or command ?
[16:25] <ActionParsnip> carbon__: yes, it just breaks things up a bit
