[18:55] <fixxxerm1t> I have ubuntu installed on a standalone drive.  I have an identical drive that I want to add and then use mdadm to create a RAID1 array.  Aside from adding the drive, can mdadm do this on the fly (with the server online)?  If so, how?
[18:55] <alesan> Berzerker-, come on, at least 8.02 had it
[18:55] <alesan> I do not recall now if it worked even in 7.04
[18:55] <dAlfa89_> Kaell, have you noticed a recent decrease in performance?
[18:55] <Berzerker-> alesan, 8.04 you mean?
[18:55] <alesan> I have 9.04 and of course it works
[18:55] <Kaell> I just bought the laptop.
[18:55] <alesan> yes sorry typo
[18:55] <Berzerker-> alesan, I didn't see it, it may have been in before
[18:55] <MacOS_User> NO
[18:55] <alesan> 8.04
[18:55] <MacOS_User> virtualbox is like vmware
[18:56] <grawity> BerRMaNyA: No, I won't answer "by mp", whatever that is.
[18:56] <Kaell> Knoppix LiveDVD seems to work fine on the laptop.  Should I do something with that to test the HD perhaps?
[18:56] <BerRMaNyA> Ok
[18:56] <alesan> Kaell, why?
[18:56] <mMezquitale> arand, if you can edit it please let us know, I was told not to edit the file when karmic was still in development, I created a file and placed it in "/etc/grub.d" so I can dual boot with jaunty, I will talk to the grub developers about this one, havent kept up on the changes
[18:56] <arand> masteris: openarena, yofrankie, armagetronad...
[18:56] <Kaell> I dunno, people seem to be suggesting it might be a HD problem.
[18:56] <dAlfa89_> Kaell, it's a good idea, and try the RAM check thing on the Ubuntu CD
[18:56] <MacOS_User> does anyone know why telinit 1 or init 1 does not work?
[18:57] <lightpriest> i'm having problems loading ubuntu (9.10) normally and it seems to be something with the video card/driver. when i use recovery mode to get console access and type 'sudo gdm' everything works fine, anyone experienced that?
[18:57] <wrapster> is there a lotus notes edition for linux by any chance?
[18:58] <Randomtime> wrapster: IIRC there is, but only for RHEL
[18:58] <petsounds> im on ubuntu NBR, sometimes i like to change into desktop mode, on the previous version i can use desktop-switcher but with karmic i'm no longer can search for it on synaptic, is there a way to install desktop-switcher? thanks
[18:58] <wrapster> Randomtime: RHEL ?

I'll try again, since I didn't get an answer last time ... my problem is that I want to print a pdf-file, which is in landscape format, on paper (again with landscape format) ... but that seems to be impossible through the gui to cups ...

[18:59] <lightpriest> ZykoticK9, nvidia, 96 drivers (it's an old one i can't use the new ones)
[18:59] <MacOS_User> reposted what?
[18:59] <mpower_bmw> can i download ubuntu 9.10 and install it using unetbootin ?
[18:59] <BerRMaNyA> that is true?

[18:59] <lightpriest> Haitham, and then try again
[19:00] <Haitham> Okay, thanks. :)

[19:00] <wrapster> Randomtime: yeah.. thanks.. lets hope the 8.04 also works on 9.04 :)
[19:00] <arand> mMezquitale: From the forum tutorial ""The Grub 2 user-configurable settings are contained mainly in /etc/default/grub and the files in /etc/grub.d. When update-grub is executed the results are input into the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file."" Seems like the grub.d is for the grub scripts, and the default/grub file is for settings...
[19:00] <Randomtime> wrapster: Should do, but might want to check before you buy
[19:00] <lightpriest> ZykoticK9, if i look at X's logs I see a backtrace at the end of 'em
[19:00] <wrapster> Randomtime: ok.. thanks

[19:00] <m0smith> disabling ipv6 fixed the problem
[19:00] <mMezquitale> arand, youre right, Im looking at the file right now, now you can edit it and you have to run "update-grub" once youre done making changes
[19:01] <TheComputerGuy> Hello!

[19:01] <Randomtime> Eric-Storm: have you tried a non-USB mouse?
[19:01] <MacOS_User> I didnt run update-grub, lemme try that, I just made some changes
[19:01] <mMezquitale> arand, do you know if you can install grub in a virtual machine?
[19:01] <TheComputerGuy> What is the name of the Ubuntu Netbook Remix  applet that shows the name of the current window?

[19:02] <phil_fl> BlackHawk: with what software are you trying to print ?
[19:02] <arand> mMezquitale: of course, makes no difference in theory, (and in practice from my experience)
[19:02] <Omen_20> hi. why has the super keys been disabled in Keyboard Shortcuts on 9.10?
[19:02] <phil_fl> BlackHawk: I do print Landscape pdf with Evince
[19:03] <BlackHawk> phil_fl: evince, but I think it just opens a gui for cups, so it should happen with every program
[19:03] <m0smith> Also, I had to disable to compiz or my machine locked up.  this has been a most painful upgrade
[19:03] <scott9876> anyone know of a letter by letter search tool
[19:03] <BlackHawk> phil_fl: really? do you need a certain setting?
[19:03] <Whitor> Does anyone know how I can revert to the default drivers for X? after enabling the Restricted drivers, I can not see anything on my display after reboot. (I can get to a terminal though) any ideas ?

[19:04] <BlackHawk> phil_fl: ok :( when I try to print it, it just prints it in portrait format, and text etc. is unreadable!
[19:04] <BlackHawk> and I already tried several pdf-files!
[19:04] <garymaurizi> Bragex9, how do you expect us too answer your question when there is absolutely no information for us too go on provided?
[19:04] <Whitor> IOW how do I reset my Xconfig to what it was prior to enabling the restricted drivers ?
[19:04] <MacOS_User> anyone know how to get Ubuntu into single user mode from the command prompt (root prompt)?
[19:04] <FCalderon> m0smith: Well, I'm downloading the upgrade files to my laptop, so I'll give it a try later
[19:04] <jcdutton> BlackHawk, evince has a page setup option
[19:05] <Randomtime> garymaurizi: if you're using firefox, you can set a master password at tools --> options --> secuirty --> use a master password, this encrypts your pasword, and plugs into FF's password manager.
[19:05] <MacOS_User> this grub stuff is too hard, I just need single user mode really
[19:05] <MacOS_User> I can figure grub out later
[19:05] <alesan> MacOS_User, should be init 1?
[19:05] <MacOS_User> that doesnt work
[19:05] <Haitham> I think it's problem with the "Host Name" - It's automatically  put to "messenger.hotmail.com" even though if you try to run it on firefox, it gives you an error.
[19:05] <jcdutton> BlackHawk, use that and then the print-preview button on the print menu option
[19:05] <MacOS_User> tried init 1 and telinit 1
[19:05] <garymaurizi> randomtime: in my question i specificed that im not just talking internet sites/social networks, im talking empathy, evolution, et.all
[19:05] <m0smith> FC:good luck
[19:05] <MacOS_User> nothing happens
[19:05] <BlackHawk> jcdutton: ahhh, thanks :) that's it!

[19:05] <alesan> MacOS_User, boot it with init=1 as command line
[19:06] <garymaurizi> why is keyring not installed by default in karmic?
[19:06] <MacOS_User> ok, I do not want to mess with grub2 right now its too complicated, isnt there a way to just command it "down" into single user once its up?
[19:06] <Randomtime> garymaurizi: it is
[19:06] <mbeierl> ah... finally found gdm-setup.  For some reason I cannot enable the "login window" menu item but I can run  gksu /usr/sbin/gdmsetup from a terminal.  XDCMP works now, thanks
[19:06] <mMezquitale> arand, thanks for the help, so is it possible to install grub on a virtual machine using virtualbox ?
[19:06] <nameless`> hi
[19:06] <BlackHawk> jcdutton: but properties did show 'landscape format' as page setup ... and page setup itself says portrait format ... thanks for your tip, I'll try that :)
[19:06] <MacOS_User> every unix in the world takes init 1
[19:06] <nameless`> i still have trouble to add the resolution 1280x800
[19:06] <MacOS_User> or telinit 1
[19:06] <garymaurizi> randomtime: it doesnt seem like i have gnome-keyring, where do i find it?"
[19:06] <arand> MacOS_User: Hold down shift on boot
[19:06] <nameless`> please help me :)
[19:06] <youngtill1die> who can help me to configure orinoco/wlags driver?
[19:07] <Haitham> It's weird, if you put messenger.live.com (which is supposed to be the right spelling) it gives u an error on FF, but if you put it messanger.live.com - it opens live page for you.
[19:07] <Jordan_U> MacOS_User: There is nothing to mess with, there is a "recovery mode" entry by default that starts in single user mode
[19:07] <MacOS_User> nameiner: I upgraded to virtualbox 3.0.10 and it fixed it
[19:07] <Haitham> This is confusing.
[19:07] <Bragex9> garymaurizi, well I had the same problem on my other pc. Then it was something with the nvidia driver. Someone here told me what to do and it got fixed... Problem is I don't remember what I did..
[19:07] <MacOS_User> yeah just there is no menu to get it from!
[19:07] <Jordan_U> MacOS_User: You can hold shift during boot to see the grub menu
[19:07] <arand> mMezquitale: As soon as you install ubuntu in a vm grub will come with it, exactly as if you installed it to a physical drive.
[19:07] <tobiassjosten> I tried upgrading to Karmic a few hours ago. Now I am on the Live CD.. :/ In the middle of the process it paused and I hit CTRL-C, after which it continued. Now I cant boot at all, it just says it encountered "error 127".
[19:07] <MacOS_User> ok
[19:07] <MacOS_User> will try that
[19:07] <MacOS_User> how do I force the grub menu to always come up?
[19:07] <jcdutton> MacOS_User,  just edit /etc/default/grub
[19:07] <phil_fl> BlackHawk: I just tried I have evince 2.28.1
[19:07] <gnuyen> has pidgin been causing 170 cpu usage for anyone else?

[19:08] <akshay> ikonoa: plz elp
[19:08] <MacOS_User> jcdutton: what do I edit it to say?
[19:08] <garymaurizi> Bragex9 you are going to have too provide as much information as you can remmember, just stating your pc is black on boot and it has too do with nvidia drivers will not help you here.
[19:08] <akshay> please help me
[19:08] <setuid> Anyone?

[19:08] <Haitham> ashkay - what do you want?
[19:08] <Whitor> setuid, reask
[19:08] <FCalderon> Haitham: everything about or related to Microsoft is confusing :)
[19:08] <garymaurizi> Bragex9 consider learning now to access your system logs /var/logs using pastebin & linking us here??
[19:08] <nameless`> i have ubuntu 9.10 running over parallel under mac os x snow leopard with a macbook 5.2 2.13ghz. My problem : i want to add the resolution 1280x800 in the appearance menu. so i create the xorg.conf using X -configure and if i launch X it fails (still on the tty with the screen blinking)
[19:08] <phil_fl> BlackHawk: cool
[19:08] <MacOS_User> does it matter if I use the right or left shift key to force the menu on bootup?
[19:08] <lightpriest> ZykoticK9, could you check under which gdm user you running?
[19:08] <BlackHawk> thank you :)
[19:08] <arand> MacOS_User: Hold down shift on boot to get to the boot menu if it's hidden
[19:08] <garymaurizi> i shouldent have too tell you to do this
[19:08] <lightpriest> ZykoticK9, could you check under which gdm user is running?
[19:08] <Haitham> Indeed, that's a reason for switching to Linux.
[19:09] <lightpriest> ZykoticK9, could you check under which user gdm is running? :)
[19:09] <BlackHawk> phil_fl: and I have the same version of evince
[19:09] <Haitham> But still, there are old traces stuck with 'em, I have to use. :)

[19:09] <MacOS_User> jcdutton: single will always force the menue up?
[19:09] <MacOS_User> nameless`: I do not have parallels
[19:09] <nameless`> Jordan_U what is guest additions
[19:09] <ZykoticK9> lightpriest, gdm-binary gdm-simple-slave gdm-session-worker are all run under root

[19:10] <mMezquitale> arand, ok now I see, MacOS_User doesnt see the grub2 menu appear when he boots up to his virtual machine.  That would be the first step in getting his virtual machine to boot up in single user mode, once he's able to see the menu all he has to do is edit "grub.cfg" and add an entry that will allow him to boot up to single user mode
[19:10] <jcdutton> MacOS_User, Yes, you get the menu

[19:12] <pk2643532> ok.
[19:12] <Jordan_U> nameless`: Don't add an Xorg.conf, and if you have remove it. You won't be able to change resolutions untill you install "Parallels Tools"

[19:16] <mbeierl> ryan__: no, it does not need to.
[19:16] <ZykoticK9> Speculater, i think you're looking for "ring switcher"
[19:16] <Pici> garymaurizi: 'wallet manager'?.  I think theres an application that might fit this in Applications>Accessories.  I don't have a GUI system in front of me to check the exact name though. I think it may have been called Encryption and Password.
[19:17] <garymaurizi> Pici: thanks ill look now
[19:17] <trism> danlii: sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list 'true'
[19:17] <ryan__> mbeierl: Thanks :)
[19:17] <FCalderon> Pici: Passwords and encryption keys
[19:17] <mbeierl> ryan__: you're welcome!
[19:17] <Speculater> ring switcher eh, thanks you ZykoticK9
[19:17] <Pici> garymaurizi: As FCalderon said: Passwords and encryption keys
[19:17] <danlii> trism: Nice, thanks!!
[19:18] <MacOS_User> ok folks, I have some things to work on, I'll be back in 30 minutes or so.
[19:18] <MacOS_User> thanks everyone.
[19:18] <garymaurizi> Pici:FCalderon: This is nothing like the gnome-keyring & wallet manager in ubuntu 9.04, nor does this look associated at all with gnome-keyring?
[19:18] <blkchameel> Anybody know how to fix "Error activating XKB config"?
[19:19] <ZykoticK9> blkchameel, are you using Mac hardware?
[19:20] <cellofellow> I've been using popa3d for POP3 email and so far so good. It's lightweight and uses PAM for authentication. I'm looking to switch to IMAP, and so was wondering about a similarly lightweight and easy to configure IMAP server.
[19:21] <cellofellow> of course Ubuntu comes with Dovecot.
[19:21] <Pici> garymaurizi: Are you perhaps thinking of kwalletmanager ? Thats a KDE application and is not installed by default with Ubuntu.
[19:21] <setuid> My karmic install left me with a sources.list that only points to the cdrom, even after I told it to use universe, multiverse, partner, etc. How do I fix that?
[19:21] <garymaurizi> Pici, perhaps, but there was a very similiar app in gnome too

[19:22] <ryan__> mbeierl: I am not seeing any files being recovered when running that tar -xvf samba.tar samba/users Could it be because it has not mad it to that folder yet or do i have something wrong?

[19:22] <gex> hi all
[19:23] <WormDrink> whats the default ubuntu shell ?
[19:23] <gex> i cant remove wicd it says error 2
[19:23] <Pici> WormDrink: bash
[19:23] <FCalderon> ryan__: do you have GUI access?
[19:23] <docmur> WormDrink I think it's bash
[19:23] <grawity> WormDrink: The GUI - GNOME. The terminal - bash.
[19:23] <ryan__> FCalderon: yes? why
[19:23] <Pici> WormDrink: Although /bin/sh is linked to dash by default.
[19:23] <WormDrink> no, when you run /bin/sh
[19:23] <WormDrink> ah - ok
[19:23] <lifestream> Can I install Ubuntu CD image on a DVD? I don't have any virgin CDs right now
[19:23] <Adam-85> Hi all
[19:23] <FCalderon> ryan__ you can always open the file from nautilus and "copy" the directory that you want to extract
[19:23] <grawity> WormDrink: "When you run /bin/sh" is not the default one.
[19:23] <ZykoticK9> lifestream, yes - that's what i had to do too
[19:23] <Adam-85> I\m using Ubuntu 9.10 and i can\t hear any sound
[19:24] <Adam-85> anyone have an idea to fix this problem
[19:24] <lifestream> ZykoticK9: thank you :)
[19:24] <FCalderon> ryan__ well, it's archive manager not nautilus
[19:24] <thijs> I installed ubuntu karmic on my laptop, with a ati radeon mobility hd card. I can't install sun-java6-jdk because that won't let me boot anymore, are there any known bugs?

[19:24] <blkchameel> Anybody know how to fix "Error activating XKB config"?
[19:25] <gex> why i cant remove this package?? http://paste.ubuntu.com/308743/
[19:25] <Adiman423> can someone help me with seamless mode with virtualbox. I have Ubuntu 8.04 running in my VM with virtualbox
[19:26] <Sneex> OK, the ifconfig -a lists the  HWaddr of each interface as 00:15:17:b5:ec:d4 00:15:17:b5:ec:d5 00:15:17:b5:ec:e8 and 00:15:17:b5:ec:e9 -- same box or different boxes?
[19:26] <Haitham> I don't get it - What is butterfly?
[19:26] <MaienM> So, I just updated to 9.10 and noticed that the internal system beep has been replaced by a beep sound coming from the boxes. Is there any way to get the old system beep back (the one coming from your pc, not from the connected boxes/headphones)? Yes, the one that everyone seems to hate so much.
[19:27] <erUSUL> BerRMaNyA: try in #ubuntu-server
[19:27] <ZykoticK9> robertj, the redirect can be done 2& or something.  ask in #bash if you don't get an answer here.  but check out programs like "tail" for command line output from logs or if you want really facny on your X root window check out "root-tail".  good luck
[19:27] <JavaJimFL> New to Linux in general, Ubuntu in particular:  new 9.1 server install, single OS, ok till Grub install, at which point the install menu loop for that selection till I select no bootloader and then the server won't start after the install.  Any pointers?  Thanks.

[19:28] <BasiumDeJudas> Hello all.
[19:28] <kingnerd> Hey guys... I want to install Ubuntu 9.10 on my iMac (from 8.10), and I can't figure out how to boot the livecd.  The iMac's EFI won't recognize a USB drive, and when I image a FireWire HD to the boot CD using UNetBootin, it's recognized but won't start up (just sends me back to the default HD).  If I create a separate partition on my internal drive and image Ubuntu on it, is there any way to get GRUB to boot that?  Thanks so much for any help.
[19:28] <trent> I need help installing http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/12753115/com/Gyach-Enhanced-pYVoiceChat-1.0.7-1_SuSE-9.2-FULL.i586.rpm.html

[19:35] <Adiman423> someone please help me!!!!!
[19:35] <crohakon> tertitten; I know that the ./ was executing the file... but what does chmod a+x set? I know what chmod does... just never used a+x

[19:36] <Docteh> crohakon: All+eXecutable

[19:36] <crohakon> Docteh; ahh, thanks.
[19:36] <dick> You need to burn the iso image to a cd, do you know how to do that?
[19:36] <tertitten> crohakon: a+x makes the file executable .... All+Executable
[19:36] <MasterofPuppets> FCalderon: Oh, so it'll fix itself?
[19:36] <FCalderon> MasterofPuppets: you can remove it from your grub config
[19:36] <mbeierl> ryan__: sorry - back now.  when you "tar tvf samba.tar" does "samba/users" show up, or is it "/samba/users"?
[19:36] <kahen> sounds in wine is very choppy (no games. just foobar2000). does anyone have any tips?
[19:36] <paissad> i have no more sound from my pc ...  just and only changed the motherboard
[19:37] <paissad> how can i fix it ?

[19:38] <blkchameel> Error activating XKB configuration. Can anyone help?
[19:38] <amodro262> Good afternoon, everyone.  I'm having a problem with gnome-appearances-properties and I was wondering if someone could help me.
[19:39] <saba> Hello, my voice sounds like it's an alien speaking when I'm using the microphone (extern and intern on my laptop)
[19:39] <saba> what can be wrong?
[19:39] <rzr> you might be an alien
[19:39] <rzr> :)
[19:39] <phifty> #cells
[19:39] <FCalderon> saba: stop smoking (j/k)
[19:40] <amodro262> Occam's Razor strikes again, hey?
[19:40] <saba> FCalderon: I was going to, just have to fix the microphone so I can document (j/k)
[19:41] <Sneex> peace guys and thanks :)
[19:41] <amodro262> For anybody who might be looking, my problem is that when I try to change my desktop background, the process hangs, and spikes CPU usage through the roof.  If left to its own devices it will occasionally finish loading and I can then change my theme or desktop wallpaper.  Sometimes it locks up my entire system.
[19:41] <FCalderon> saba: seriously, make sure that you're using the default sound handler for your microphone, also make sure that you're not using 100% of your CPU as that can sometimes mess with sound processing
[19:41] <beagleburt>   {REPEAT QUESTION FROM 06:12 -> 06:56 -> 08:06 -> 08:42}: G'day from New Zealand everyone! Using Ubuntu 8.04 (LTS) but machine keeps dialing out while booting? It was doing this for months - I was not too worried at first as the unknown number it was dialling was wrong, but around the time 4/6 of my computer "log books" disappeared, it started connecting with whomever???(So now I just switch off modem power) Now my Gnome dialler
[19:41] <beagleburt> does not work?  I can  only get on internet via "sudo pon". I would really appreciate any help.
[19:41] <amodro262> I did some Google searching and it seems to be similar to a bug that was being reported a couple years back, but the solutions offered didn't seem to have anything to do with my setup -- a lot of talk about a hidden gtk folder.
[19:42] <blkchameel> Error activating XKB configuration. Can anyone help?
[19:42] <amodro262> Trying to run it in a terminal netted me this error:  (gnome-appearance-properties:3074): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_display_sync: assertion `GDK_IS_DISPLAY (display)' failed
[19:43] <amodro262> Putting that into Google netted me a lot of things I didn't have a chance of understanding, and no apparent simple fixes.  So, I'm stuck.

[19:47] <mhz> anyone have a guide or the steps for adobe flash player install on 64bit?
[19:47] <amodro262> Anybody?  Nobody?
[19:47] <CSWookie> What's the simplest way for me to make my computer beep on command?  I installed the beep program, but it doesn't work.
[19:47] <Halitech> Klatuferatanektu, see here http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[19:48] <CSWookie> Is there maybe a way to tell pulseaudio to emit a tone of a certain length and frequency?
[19:48] <mbeierl> mhz: sudo aptitude install flashplugin-installer did not work for you?
[19:49] <Maraja> hi evrybody! i've instaled ubuntu 9.10 but my microphone doesn work. What should i do?
[19:49] <maestrojed> I am trying to add a cron that executes a php script every 10mins. I added this to /etc/crontab but it is not working. "*/10 * * * * /usr/bin/php5 /home/maestrojed/html/webApp/data/runUpdates.php > /dev/null", any suggestions what I am doing wrong?

[19:49] <SmnLpz> what irc client do people usually use? im on xchat-gnome. anyone want to recomend me another client maybe a more mainstream one? :)
[19:49] <mhz> doing thatn ow
[19:49] <KeithMc-Kay> I have having royal issues with 9.10, no sound, crashes alot, so I dropped back to 9.04, the only problem here is the webcam, http://img267.imageshack.us/i/screenshotzh.png/
[19:49] <kingnerd> Hey guys.  I want to upgrade from 8.10 to 9.10 on this iMac, but I can't get the LiveCD to boot.  I tried imaging to a USB drive, but iMac can't boot from USB, so I put it on a FireWire external.  It's recognized, but when I try to boot from it, it just boots from my internal HD.  Is there any way I can create an image on my internal HD, and use Grub to boot that?
[19:49] <graft> SmnLpz: irssi
[19:50] <SoftwareExplorer> SmnLpz: Pidgin is what I use
[19:50] <graft> SmnLpz: pidgin also has irc support
[19:50] <Tartaros> "quickly" is telling me I have no ppa to share my package to, but in fact I do have a ppa. Wuts going on?
[19:50] <tpe> mhz: sudo aptitude installl flashplugin-installer will grab the 32-bit one (it did for me), try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1259102
[19:50] <SmnLpz> want a only irc client...
[19:50] <CSWookie> irssi, SmnLpz
[19:51] <phibxr> SmnLpz: i'd say xchat is about as mainstream as you can get. :) i use xchat, though, not specifically xchat-gnome. perhaps it's just a meta-package for the same client or something though.
[19:51] <amodro262> Please, can somebody at least acknowledge that they saw my question?
[19:51] <ZykoticK9> SmnLpz, i really dislike the "gnome-xchat" but i use default xchat
[19:51] <oorah> when is array.org making a kernel for Ubuntu 9.10?
[19:51] <mbeierl> CSWookie: for pulse tone: a but of a sledgehammer, but you could try creating a tone file and playing it with mpg123
[19:52] <mhz> hmm
[19:52] <Eric-Storm> I have Ubuntu 9.10 64bit... After about 10 minutes my USB mouse freezes. I've tried other mice it happens just the same. Anyone know how to fix my mouse from freezing?
[19:52] <Tartaros> amodro262: we saw your question
[19:52] <Maraja> humm.. this mic used to work fine on windows. When i instaleed ubuntu 9.04 it recorded my foice on soundrecorder but i couldńt use skype.
[19:52] <rakslice|w> amodro262: if you think your irc client isn't working, there are plenty of channels that don't have 1700 people in them for you to test in =)
[19:52] <mhz> thanks tpe, i'll give it a shot
[19:52] <number2_> Eric-Storm: i had that happen before, you using a laptop?
[19:52] <CSWookie> mbeierl: That is a bit of a sledgehammer.  And I want to use it from inside of irssi, so I'd like it to be a very simple thing.
[19:53] <phibxr> ZykoticK9: same here. i remember disliking gnome-xchat.
[19:53] <amodro262> My IRC client is fine.  If nobody knows the answer to my question, that's fine too, but just ignoring me isn't very nice.
[19:53] <Tartaros> rakslice|w: I'd say more like he's desperate for the answer :o
[19:53] <FCalderon> Eric-Storm: are you sure that it's the mouse that freezes? everything else keeps working?
[19:53] <amodro262> I can try to provide more information if necessary.
[19:53] <Klatuferatanektu> Halitech, thx very much. this looks perfectly like what i need
[19:53] <CSWookie> It seems like ubuntu has done backflips to make it hard for me to make my computer beep when I want it to.
[19:53] <oorah> i bought a hammer but it didn't work so i returned it to the hardware store lol
[19:53] <Eric-Storm> Yes im sure. Keyboard and everything else is still fully functioning.
[19:53] <Tartaros> amodro262: do you expect all the 1000 people to tell you "I don't know"?
[19:53] <Halitech> Klatuferatanektu, glad to help out
[19:53] <Eric-Storm> The mouse's light is still on, however it no longer responds.
[19:53] <amodro262> No, but it would be nice if one or two people said something, especially with other people coming in and getting immediate responses.
[19:53] <fixxxerm1t> I have ubuntu 9.04 32bit with /home as a separate partition.  I want to do a fresh install of 9.10 64bit.  How do I do this correctly?
[19:54] <Tartaros> amodro262: anyway you can try providing the information at which point exactly it is that your processor spikes
[19:54] <darlek> amodro262, it's a busy board, if you get a hit that's great, if not, don't take it so personally
[19:54] <Docteh> amodro262: I do that occasionally, but right now im distracted ;)
[19:54] <oorah> when is array.org making a kernel for Ubuntu 9.10?
[19:54] <phibxr> amodro262: it looked like a strange issue that i've never seen before, that's why i didn't bother replying. i probably wouldn't be able to solve it no matter how much information i requested from you. :)
[19:54] <amodro262> Tartaros: Either when I click on "Change Desktop Background" or run gnome-appearance-properties in a terminal.
[19:54] <djoaza> irc://irc.abuser.pl/bimbrownia.org
[19:55] <SmnLpz> so for irsis can i do sudo apt-get irssi ?
[19:55] <setuid> My karmic install left me with a sources.list that only points to the cdrom, even after I told it to use universe, multiverse, partner, etc. How do I fix that?
[19:55] <amodro262> I did it with a click while running top in a terminal and it immediately shot up to about 75% CPU, then kept climbing.
[19:55] <darlek> !ubottu | darlek
[19:55] <setuid> n/m, I found it
[19:55] <Tartaros> did you try reinstalling the gnome-appearance-properties thingy with apt or synaptic?
[19:55] <joshstrobl> hello peeps
[19:55] <craig_> SD card not auto mounting after upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04. Has anyone else had this problem and can I provide any sort of debug or log file?

[19:56] <lakis> i have installed kubuntu karmic .. what should i do so that every time i log to kubuntu the NTFS partition that has the windows installed is mounted automatically ??? please help ..

[19:56] <amodro262> Doesn't happen under Xfce, though.
[19:57] <unperson> Hi.  I have a USB keychain drive that I want to put a bootable copy of Ubuntu on.  I have the 9.10 ISO and drive, and a computer running an old copy of Xandros.  Is there a stand alone tool I can easily download to make the bootable USB drive?
[19:57] <Tartaros> lakis: it should be, unless it's ntfs-hidden, you can tell by running the disk utility from Administration menu
[19:57] <amodro262> I just upgraded to Karmic last night, btw.  I didn't mention that, my mistake.

[19:58] <BenG92> what IRC chat programs work on 9.10
[19:58] <craig_> chatZilla
[19:58] <joakimk> WHen I open a ssh connection from Terminal, and leave it for a while, the remote prompt freezes, and I have to close the window and open a new connection... Any way to keep-alive ssh connections? Is this a server-side setting (I am not root at the remote machine)?
[19:58] <grawity> BenG92: irssi, weechat, Xchat, Pidgin, Chatzilla
[19:58] <oorah> BenG92, xchat is a good one
[19:58] <SmnLpz> so for irsis can i do sudo apt-get irssi ?
[19:58] <Tartaros> I just upgraded to karmic too btw, and can change appearance with no problem...
[19:58] <BenG92> ok, thanks guys i'll try Xchat
[19:58] <CSWookie> SmnLpz: apt-get install irssi
[19:59] <SmnLpz> CSWookie,  thanks gonna try that
[19:59] <unperson> kingnerd, Thanks.  That looks like it ought to do the trick.
[19:59] <amodro262> Tartaros: Yeah, a friend of mine had no problem either, and he's as stumped as we are.  Again, thanks for listening.
[19:59] <grawity> SmnLpz: ...what CSWookie said, but with "sudo "
[19:59] <amodro262> Have a good day, folks.

[20:02] <ZykoticK9> joakim-, fyi there is an "IdleTimeout" option in sshd - so perhaps that is set?  bad news for you i guess.
[20:02] <dale> cheers echo "on" > /proc/acpi/fan/FAN/state give me a permission denied though
[20:02] <dale> even with sudo
[20:02] <BenG92> im really new to all of this, whats the easiest way to download a client?
[20:02] <BlackFate> Bragex9, if you try to control + alt + f1 does your monitor flicker?
[20:02] <dale> and cat gives me status: off
[20:02] <joakimk> ZykoticK9: and this is a server setting, then?
[20:02] <darlek> beagleburt, sorry, i haven't used a modem in more than 10 years
[20:02] <Flannel> dale: echo "on" | sudo tee /proc/etc/etc/etc
[20:03] <darlek> !modem | beagleburt
[20:03] <brandon_> anyone know where to get the ubuntu minimal cd for karmic?
[20:03] <ZykoticK9> joakim-, yes
[20:03] <brandon_> i cant find it
[20:03] <Docteh> Thundercross: you should turn off the greeting functions of your client
[20:03] <darlek> beagleburt, that link might have info for you
[20:03] <grawity> BenG92: The same way you download other Ubuntu programs -- either "Add/Remove", or Synaptic, or "sudo apt-get install"
[20:03] <Bragex9> blackfate, no reaction with alt+f1
[20:03] <grawity> BenG92: For example, the command "sudo apt-get install irssi xchat" will get you both irssi and Xchat at once.
[20:03] <ingenius> Hi .. Some can help me with something .. I remember in 9.04 version have a C++ Sockets Library package .. but in 9.10 I can't find it
[20:03] <brandon_> nobody knows eh?
[20:03] <BlackFate> Bragex9, you need to boot live cd and fix that
[20:03] <Docteh> brandon_: the minimal cd isn't in the regular place?
 Thankyou! Will check out link now.
[20:04] <brandon_> not for karmic
[20:04] <oorah> when is array.org making a kernel for Ubuntu 9.10? or how bout gyachi?

[20:05] <Milligan> Good evening .. I just went to 9.10, and here's a funny bug; If I start a video file in totem, the colours channels will be all messe up. Where one is ment to see i.e human skin, there is more of a blue/purple tone.. (No, I'm not trying to watch porn :) )
[20:05] <Bragex9> blackfate, how do I boot live cd? (I am a completely newbie to ubuntu..)
[20:05] <lakis> to run disk utility
[20:05] <bowser> hi all, after upgrade to kubunut karmic, no media player displays video (vlc, kaffeine, miro) I do have medibuntu repo & packages
[20:05] <brandon_> ugh
[20:05] <Docteh> brandon_: try digging around a server with the repo, it might be in there since its small
[20:05] <bowser> sound works though
[20:05] <grawity> BenG92: Also "sudo aptitude install blah blah" - may be easier to remember than apt-get. Or, System -> Administration -> Synaptic, for a graphical way.
[20:05] <Tartaros> lakis: ubuntu menu - System - Preferences - Disk Utility
[20:05] <Docteh> brandon_: you could always pxe boot karmic
[20:06] <brandon_> pxe?
[20:06] <BlackFate> Bragex9, insert the ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10 live cd and boot it
[20:06] <gletob> How can I link to another instance of Grub from inside of Ubuntu?  I've got a second grub file on /dev/sda4 in /boot/grub/menu.lst that I'd like to be able to run from my current Grub
[20:06] <lakis> i have kubuntu
[20:06] <Tartaros> bowser: I have it vice versa :D video works, sound doesnt
[20:06] <darlek_> Milligan, only in totem?  how about mplayer or vlc?
[20:06] <Milligan> darlek, same in all of em
[20:06] <darlek_> hmm
[20:06] <Tartaros> bowser: what's "medibuntu" btw?
[20:06] <grawity> gletob: Search for "chainloading"
[20:06] <BenG92> thanks grawity :)
[20:07] <brandon_> seriously, nobody knows where to get the karmic minimal install?
[20:07] <bowser> Tartaros: packages with codecs that cannot be distributed by ubuntu
[20:07] <RaverWild> help please - how to set my internet connection in  jaunty?
[20:07] <Bragex9> blackfate, what if I don't have a live CD? Can I make one on another PC with the latest version of ubuntu?
[20:07] <FCalderon> gotta go, going to upgrade to 9.10 to see how it goes :)
[20:07] <Tartaros> bowser: oh, sounds yummy. Where do I get them?
[20:07] <FCalderon> bye 2 all
[20:07] <darlek_> Milligan, sorry I really don't know
[20:07] <newser> hello, I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. How can I put the icons and graphical improvements from 9.10?
[20:07] <Docteh> haha i was going to go to my laptop to find it for him, ah well
[20:08] <darlek_> !video | Milligan
[20:08] <BlackFate> Bragex9, yes you can
[20:08] <darlek_> Milligan, that might help
[20:08] <bowser> Tartaros: you'll find info on medibuntu.org
[20:08] <Milligan> darlek, haha, I found the problem;
[20:08] <Docteh> !minimal
[20:08] <darlek_> Milligan, oh?  do share!
[20:08] <Milligan> darlek, "What happened is that the colorbalance was changed.
[20:08] <Tartaros> bowser: yeah google told me already, thanks :D
[20:08] <Bragex9> Blackfate, What about the files that I have on the computer that will not start? Will it be lost?

[20:09] <oorah> when is array.org making a kernel for Ubuntu 9.10? or how bout gyachi for karmic??
[20:09] <Persona> hi!
[20:09] <Tamale> Hi all, my main menu is messed up after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10.  "Places" and "System" are both half the height of all other elements and it's very difficult to mouse over them. Help please!
[20:09] <Milligan> darlek, odd but easily solved problem, luckily.
[20:09] <Haitham> Why I don't have the "Permission" to view a Folder called "root" in System Files &/or "Lost&Found" folder?
[20:09] <BlackFate> Bragex9, no dont worry... everything is safe
[20:09] <Docteh> oorah: whats array.org?
[20:09] <mvalviar> hi
[20:09] <bowser> i guess medibuntu is still needed in karmic, right?
[20:09] <darlek_> Milligan, yes I've noticed this with firefox and others, if I use a default profile the software is okay.  Seems there is a hiccup in the profile copying or whatever
[20:09] <LjL> bowser: medibuntu is not "needed" in any release.
[20:10] <Bragex9> blackfate, thanks! I will go make a cd now
[20:10] <llutz> Halitech: because they are owned by root
[20:10] <LjL> it might be wanted by the user.
[20:10] <Eric-Storm> I have Ubuntu 9.10 64bit... After about 10 minutes my USB mouse freezes. I've tried other mice it happens just the same. Anyone know how to fix my mouse from freezing?
[20:10] <bowser> LjL: to play some multimedia formats
[20:10] <darlek_> Milligan, so if any other programs act weird, look for default resets.  Thanks again
[20:10] <oorah> Docteh, its a site that has the installation instructions for a customized kernel, its optimized for intel atom processors mainly for netbooks
[20:10] <Tartaros> llutz: you answered to someone else :D
[20:10] <mvalviar> I just installed ubuntu studio. I noticed that the pop up message bubbles are no longer black. It it the same with the normal ubuntu KK?
[20:10] <Halitech> llutz, huh?
[20:10] <llutz> ups
[20:10] <Milligan> darlek, seems like the default profile setting in totem has fixed the problem for vlc and other players as well.. beats me why, but like you, I will keep the "default settings button trick" at mind.
[20:11] <LjL> bowser: well, which formats are encumbered by parents hasn't changed since last release
[20:11] <Persona> anybody with black screen on shutdown but not on restar o heard of it?
[20:11] <llutz> Haitham:  because they are owned by root
[20:11] <llutz> Halitech: sry
[20:11] <Lemons> Hey anyone here that can help me with a problem?
[20:11] <andreo> !ssh
[20:11] <andreo>
[20:11] <darlek_> Milligan, cool
[20:11] <Haitham> I don't get it "owned by root" ?
[20:11] <Tartaros> Lemons: don't ask if you can ask, ask away
[20:11] <Halitech> llutz, np, just had me confused for a second
[20:11] <Haitham> Means no-one even the Desktop owner can access them?
[20:11] <egoTripper88> Is it possible to mount ufs volumes under Ubuntu?
[20:11] <darlek_> !ask | Lemons
[20:12] <llutz> Haitham: then go read some basics about users and permissions in unixoid-OSes
[20:12] <Eric-Storm> I have Ubuntu 9.10 64bit... After about 10 minutes my USB mouse freezes. I've tried other mice it happens just the same. Anyone know how to fix my mouse from freezing?
[20:12] <Haitham> I will.
[20:12] <Haitham> :)
[20:12] <Halitech> Haitham, means the system owns the files, you only own what is in your home folder
[20:12] <arand> !sudo | Halitech
[20:12] <arand> !sudo | Haitham
[20:12] <arand> Halitech: sorry
[20:13] <Haitham> Thanks
[20:13] <Halitech> arand, seems I'm a popular guy for getting answers I don't need ;)
[20:13] <Haitham> I'll check it out.
[20:13] <newser> Eric-Storm, I had the same problem. I couldn't fix it so I switched to linux mint :S
[20:13] <oorah> is there a way to fix the bug on the msi wind? screen brightness keeps flickering up and down when i try to change it. i changed dim display to never because thats when it does it and also does it when i try to adjust it
[20:13] <Haitham> Another question, where is the old "Windows" directory can be found? In case there is on.
[20:14] <Tartaros> Haitham: depends entirely on how and where you installed ubuntu
[20:14] <Lemons> Im doing my senior project in highschool on operating systems and for my product I built a linux cluster and used it to render some images and did the same with windows. Now I need to do something that helps the community, any idea on something Linux related that I can do that would help the community. I was thinkingi giving away free ubuntu cd's and answering questions and such but apperntly thats not good enough.
[20:15] <MrDusty> Who here has had issues with 9.10 in regards to X starting up (odd screen flickers) ?
[20:15] <Tartaros> Lemons: guess it depends on what you're able to do :)
[20:15] <SmnLpz> gonna explore irssi another day. but for xchat. how do i instruct xchat to automaticaly do  /msg NickServ identify <password>. when i connect to server?
[20:15] <Lemons> Well any ideas and i'll tell you if I can do them?
[20:15] <Haitham> It was messed up, I think I deleted the so was "C" partition which included windows, but never succeded the "Manual" partitioning method, so I clicked back and it seemed like Windows version was still there, even though I did delete/format many times the same space area, so could it be gone?
[20:15] <MrDusty> SmnLpz, In the server configuration section you can place your password.
[20:15] <grawity> SmnLpz: You don't... a better way is to add the "Server password" in Network Settings.
[20:15] <darlek_> MrDusty, I get it loading twice but it otherwise works.  doubles the load time though.  Funny enough restarting works faster than shutting down
[20:16] <mvalviar> can i configure where the pop up messages appear?
[20:16] <Tartaros> SmnLpz: if you use Empathy or Pidgin they have automatic login with nickserv already built in :)
[20:16] <MrDusty> darlek, I am not happy with how X is performing, its sluggish, and just doesn't feel right. :(
[20:16] <grawity> SmnLpz: Note - try "Server password" box first. Only if it doesn't work, then try "Nickserv password"
[20:16] <arand> Lemons: Organize a LUG/Talk/workshop?
[20:16] <grawity> Tartaros: Uhh. _ALL_ IRC clients have that.
[20:16] <arand> mvalviar: in short no.
[20:16] <grawity> Tartaros: Especially Xchat.
[20:16] <Halitech> MrDusty, what video card?
[20:17] <darlek_> MrDusty, oh.  in my case after it loads everything is fine.
[20:17] <MrDusty> Halitech,  GeForce 9500 GT .. well supported.
[20:17] <Tartaros> ok then, I never liked xchat for some reason, but so be it :)
[20:17] <mvalviar> Tartaros: is it yellow again? In jaunty it is black
[20:17] <Halitech> MrDusty, did you install the drivers for it?
[20:17] <gletob> Hey grawity I tried that and that links the whole partition, that doesn't work I need to link grub to an actuall 2nd menu.lst file.
[20:17] <MrDusty> Halitech, Yes.  I am using restricted-drivers and configured X using nvidia-settings.
[20:18] <Tartaros> mvalviar: no idea, last time seen it years ago and it was black and I hated it :)
[20:18] <grawity> gletob: Ah :| I misunderstood what you were trying to do.
[20:18] <MrDusty> I have been using Linux for a looong time,  it's not that I havn't configured correctly.
[20:18] <lunaphyte_> hi.  i've just updated from 9.04 to 9.1 and i'm having trouble booting in non rescue mode.  when booting normally, i see grub, and the kernel begins to boot, but eventually the screen goes black.  how can i troubleshoot this?
[20:18] <Tartaros> Lemons: well can you code? can you draw? can you translate? can you ...? :)
[20:18] <MrDusty> AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ with 3GB ram, and X seems really clinky.. not smooth...
[20:18] <Lemons> I can uh talk very well infront of lots of people
[20:19] <SmnLpz> and it works... server pass :)
[20:19] <darthanubis> MrDusty, no such issues here

[20:19] <revo_> Doesnt add up
[20:19] <MrDusty> darthanubis, for instance now.. my xchat screen with the text moving upwards as everyone in the channel speaks, it moves like the olden day computers like a line at a time, its not smooth really jagged if you get what I mean? Any ideas what could  be causing this #;
[20:20] <Tartaros> Lemons: umm... ok :D
[20:20] <revo_> MrDusty: sounds like graphics driver
[20:20] <webbb82> i have a very annoying bug   it happens on a few apps but when i open or start the app   then if i click on the app anywhere it will jump up and then click again and it will jump down making use the app impossible
[20:20] <phibxr> MrDusty: yep, graphics driver i'd say too.
[20:20] <gletob> I agree
[20:20] <rosebj> revo_, are you doind sudo top?
[20:20] <revo_> Yes
[20:20] <Pici> !contribute | Lemons this might help you get started
[20:21] <revo_> Any process management tool says the same
[20:21] <revo_> "nothing" us using all this CPU
[20:21] <revo_> memory stays low, no swapping
[20:21] <alnr> whats the pkg name of openssh server , i've tried openssh,openssh-server,ssh,ssh-server
[20:21] <gletob> alnr, ssh
[20:21] <grawity> !info openssh-server
[20:21] <grawity> alnr: It's openssh-server.
[20:21] <Tartaros> MrDusty: disabled acceleration? could be too big screen, does it make even on smaller resolution? :)
[20:21] <Venin> in ubuntu netbook remix, how do I see normal gnome?
[20:22] <alnr> grawity: i thought so, but it doesnt find it even aptitude only shows openssh-client. maybe i need to update

[20:23] <michael_campbell> Ok, admitting my stupid here.  How do I change the ridiculous "My Passport" name WD defaulted my USB HD with to something else without a #$!#$ space in it?   It auto-mounts as /dev/sdd1
[20:23] <Jordan_U> gletob: You can use the "configfile" command in your menu.lst ( grub legacy ) or grub.conf ( grub 2 )
[20:23] <Tartaros> michael_campbell: DIsk utility?
[20:23] <jiffe> alright, this is weird..
[20:23] <Ljungmann> Where can I find a log of what is printed on the xsplash?
[20:24] <michael_campbell> Tartaros, I'll try that.  Thanks.   I know I can mount it in VirtualBox and do it in Windows, but then I have to go shower.

[20:25] <alnr> grawity: no luck on update, maybe its cuz this vmware appliance points apt to edgy-security main restricted
[20:25] <bercik> Guys, is tere some HP F2400 how to guide? It doesnt work, escpecialy for default
[20:25] <ChaosR> my "normal" disk does 60MB/s just like on jaunty
[20:26] <MaienM> So, I just updated to 9.10 and noticed that the internal system beep has been replaced by a beep sound coming from the boxes. Is there any way to get the old system beep back (the one coming from your pc, not from the connected boxes/headphones)? Yes, the one that everyone seems to hate so much.
[20:26] <b0n1> Hi
[20:26] <b0n1> can someone help me installing latex packages for ubuntu 9.10
[20:26] <b0n1> ?
[20:26] <b0n1> do i need miktex?
[20:26] <grawity> alnr: Edgy? That's from 2006, isn't it?
[20:26] <Tartaros> MaienM: it's called pcspeaker and I'd say it can be enabled in the mixer thingies but dunno exactly
[20:27] <b0n1> what are the commands for the terminal
[20:27] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[20:27] <Tetracomm> Is there a command which will tell me if a printer is connected to the parallel port as well as the model?
[20:27] <Nubosal> b0n1: apt-search cache Latex Packages
[20:27] <Nubosal> Try
[20:27] <webbb82> so no one in here has ever started a app and when u click on the screen the app window will jump to the top of the screen then to the bottem when clicked on again
[20:27] <Pici> MaienM: You'd need to unblacklist the pcspkr module from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[20:27] <Pici> MaienM: Just remove or comment the relevent line.
[20:27] <jox> hi
[20:27] <teasdalec> when i try to update i get a message saying missing final line. very new to ubuntu can anyone help?
[20:27] <spwelton> why did they blacklist pcspkr by default?
[20:28] <MaienM> Pici: found it, done... is that all there is to it?
[20:28] <Venin> Tartaros, I see that other GUI.. stripped one
[20:28] <jox> i have broken dependence with two different reposity ho can fix ?
[20:28] <BasiumDeJudas> ok just uninstalled and reinstalled firefox by using the Synapic ... I downloaded the language I wanted for firefox interface but it didn't not give it to me.
[20:28] <b0n1> apt-search command not found Nubosal
[20:28] <Venin> Tartaros, I want the normal ubuntu gnome :p
[20:28] <Nubosal> UHmm
[20:28] <Nubosal> Wait
[20:28] <darlek_> spwelton, because it beeps during cursor stopping as well as when you log out.
[20:28] <b0n1> you mean apt-get ?
[20:28] <mrdark> b0n1, it's apt-cache search
[20:28] <bercik> Guys, is tere some HP F2400 how to guide? It doesnt work, escpecialy for default
[20:28] <trism> spwelton: I imagine because they replaced it with an even more annoying beep
[20:28] <Pici> MaienM: Thats it.  If you don't want to reboot for it to take effect, just   sudo modprobe pcpspkr  after making the changes.
[20:28] <Nubosal> b0n1: No, was apt-cache search Latex Packages
[20:28] <spwelton> darlek_: cursor stopping, as in when you try to delete characters that aren't there?
[20:29] <b0n1> Nubosal,  what now?
[20:29] <b0n1> got a lot of output
[20:29] <Katatonic> What is the best way to setup file sharing for /var/www on a server that is physically next to me (behind the same router).  I want to also share /home/username
[20:29] <Nubosal> You will get a list
[20:29] <darlek_> spwelton, no, end of line or buffer overrun conditions
[20:29] <Nubosal> And seach on it
[20:29] <Jordan_U> Pici: Is there a way to make gnome-terminal use pspkr again?
[20:29] <Tartaros> Venin: dunno exactly what you mean but I'd try enabling the "ubuntu desktop" package group. I do have it on my netbook and I believe I do see standard gnome :) then again my ubuntu was born as easypeasy so who knows :)
[20:29] <alnr> having a problem with apt-get, cant seem to find openssh-server even after updating. any thoughts
[20:29] <bastidrazor> Matilda: df -h for harddrive space .. free -m for RAM in MB and what was the third thing?
[20:29] <ahnkle> i upgraded and now cant login - i get the login splash screen, then busy icon forever
[20:30] <b0n1> is it bad installing everything?
[20:30] <darlek_> b0n1, apt-cache search nameofthing
[20:30] <Nubosal> Maybe
[20:30] <b0n1> how can i install all
[20:30] <spwelton> darlek_: ah, I see. I liked the system beep when I ran out of characters to delete, etc...
[20:30] <Pici> Jordan_U: I think just enabling the pcspkr module and changing the system bell option in your gnome-terminal preferences should do it.
[20:30] <Nubosal> THen you make apt-get install thepackagename
[20:30] <bercik> Guys, is tere some HP F2400 how to guide? It doesnt work, escpecialy for default
[20:30] <Katatonic> it seems a simple task but....maybe not
[20:30] <teasdalec> i get an error message saying missing final line when try update or install anything?
[20:30] <lachouffe> how can i escape the space in a var that will be use to create dir for exemple ?
[20:30] <penthief> Hi, I've upgraded to 9.10, and when I play a video with vlc it logs me out!
[20:30] <lachouffe> eg : FOO="foo bar"; mkdir $FOO
[20:31] <HuXu> foo barz!
[20:31] <bastidrazor> lachouffe: mkdir foo\ bar/

[20:31] <HuXu> Venin:  you have to install Ubuntu Desktop to get it to be normal

[20:31] <Milligan> Venin, gau sve?, right ?
[20:32]  * Venin nods
[20:32] <Jordan_U> Pici: I have pcspkr, and "beep" uses it just fine but gnome-terminal is still just playing a sound through pulse
[20:32] <Milligan> ser du på united ?
[20:32] <trism> lachouffe: you can also do mkdir "${FOO}"
[20:32] <Venin> Milligan, yeh
[20:32] <trism> lachouffe: that will only create one directory
[20:32] <Milligan> raua?

[20:37] <love_> anyone know why fglrx wont show up in jockey for activation?
[20:37] <newser> how can I get the new ubuntu icons and install them?
[20:37] <Tartaros> Dayofswords: just use the "main" one or one that seems to be near you
[20:37] <Dayofswords> Nubosal: i would, but its the point of the best server funcution not working at all

[20:38] <lumis> About to pick a netbook; NC10 or N140? anyone got a preference?
[20:38] <HuXu> Venin: reinstall Ubuntu Desktop
[20:38] <joeyeye> meua, lsof | grep 50001
[20:38] <jrib> Matilda: System -> Administration -> System Monitor is one way to view how much space is left on each of your partitions.  Alternatively, open a terminal and type « df -h »
[20:38] <Venin> HuXu, someone said the new interface could be switched off easily
[20:38] <guntbert> lumis: not here please - try #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:39] <fliebelt> I cant select "force package" in synaptic how can i solve this?
[20:39] <iandm> hi@all

[20:39] <gperalta> Hi, I installed Ubuntu 9.04 using Wubi and today i upgraded to 9.10 in that installation. The problem is that when I try to shut down Ubuntu, it starts closing everything, but at last appears a message saying "Buffer I/O error on device loop0" and it doesn't stop. What can i do?
[20:39] <spwelton> fliebelt: you can't force a version if you don't have the deb cached locally, IIRC
[20:39] <meua> joeyeye "firefox   2965       meua   46u     IPv4      22389      0t0        TCP localhost:50001 (LISTEN)"
[20:39] <Venin> lmentop, ty
[20:39] <Tartaros> 9.10 says it has deprecated "hal" - does it mean I can uninstall hal?
[20:39] <HuXu> Venin: sudo apt-get install desktop-switcher
[20:40] <joeyeye> meua,  so firefox is listening on 50001
[20:40] <gperalta> What can i do?
[20:40] <fliebelt> spwelton, so how can I downgrade my gstreamer to jaunty gstreamer?
[20:40] <olivetree> Hello, i have a question regarding wireless MSchap on ubuntu 9.10
[20:40] <arand> love_: may be ati dropped support for your card.
[20:40] <Nubosal> gperalta: Try not using Wubi. Better make partitions and reinstall all your OS
[20:40] <Kaell> I have a HD that seems to be dying?  Smartctl test shows error at a consistent LBA of first error.  Is there anything I can do to make this usable?  Or is it toast?
[20:40] <Nubosal> I had many problems with wubi

[20:40] <olivetree> the configuration doesn't seem to get available. the connect button get's disabled

[20:42] <trism> BenG92: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[20:42] <BenG92> ah ok, thanks
[20:42] <spwelton> fliebelt: you might try downloading their package and installing it, if it's a higher version... I've never tried that with gstreamer so of course I can't guarantee it'll work...
[20:43] <fliebelt> spwelton, they dont offer it, they just say: "its in your repo" ^^
[20:43] <olivetree> what about the WPA Wireless network? Does anyone knows and could tell me what is going on the 9.10?
[20:43] <Venin> whats up with the 60 sec timer when rebooting or shutting down ubuntu?

[20:53] <love_> ati drivers aren't showing up in jockey. what can i do?
[20:53] <theFunzo> hi everyone :) could you help me with this? where can i find the save files from mupen64plus which i installed from synaptic?
[20:53] <iceroot> Majost: rsync -a /my/source-dir/ <-------!!! /my/target
[20:53] <Majost> If I use 'rsync -a /my/source-dir/* /my/target-dir' in the script, bash auto completes '*' and does weird stuff
[20:53] <iceroot> Majost: that copies the content from the foolder, not the folder itself
[20:54] <Majost> with a trailing slash?
[20:54] <Yanick_> hi, I just added a menu into "Places" and I mistyped the username, how can I edit/remove that menu?
[20:54] <iceroot> Majost: <---!!! was of course a comment from me
[20:54] <iceroot> Majost: yes
[20:54] <Tartaros> teasdalec: are you sure you couldn't use the generic kernel?
[20:54] <trism> Tamale: did you try adding a new Menu Bar to your panel?
[20:54] <Tamale> trism: Yes
[20:54] <andreo> please help configure SSH, the error is "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
[20:54] <andreo>
[20:54] <love_> can someone please help with the fglrx driver? blender's not the same without it..
[20:54] <iandm> Any ideas on that one? After upgrading I have a problem with the usb-modem (Huawei E169). When pluging it in dmesg brings up some error messages which keep aon looping until I take it aout again. http://paste.ubuntu.com/308794/ thx for help!
[20:55] <m4rk> does anyone know how to fix notifications appearing too low on my screen with 9.10?
[20:55] <MasterofPuppets> If I want faster boot times under Grub2, should I edit /etc/default/grub/ and add profile to the Linux_Default line?
[20:55] <teasdalec> tartaros: i don't know what that means new to ubuntu
[20:55] <BenG92> umm... very basic question. I'm trying to load something from the Program Files folder from Vista, except when typing this into a terminal how can i include the space?
[20:55] <raged> Well, the upgrade to 9.10 totally ruined my perfectly fine 9.04 installation.
[20:56] <andreo> !ssh
[20:56] <Majost> iceroot, sweet! thanks
[20:56] <love_> ati drivers aren't showing up in jockey. what can i do?
[20:56] <iceroot> Majost: np
[20:56] <Tartaros> teasdalec: from your question I understood you're trying to install some specialised kernel
[20:56] <MaienM> BenG92: escape the space by prefixing it with a \, so for example you get c:/Program\ Files/
[20:56] <raged> is there anyone that can see my post here please rather than me explaining everything http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8234555#post8234555  ..  9.10 is a piece of CRAP and it's left my system in shambles -- my logitech dinovo edge bluetooth keyboard isnt working anymore so I can't even control my system!!
[20:56] <cov> so is it just me or does karmic completely break certificate-based WPA2 authentication and nobody cares (slash reacts to the bug reports)?
[20:56] <BenG92> thanks MaienM
[20:56] <teasdalec> i'm trying to install auto updates. same message when i try and install skype as well- "E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.24-22-lpia_2.6.24-22.45netbook9_lpia.deb: files list file for package `libxcb-shape0' is missing final newline"
[20:56] <lachouffe> why i cannot do FOO=5
[20:56] <mhz> hmm
[20:57] <mhz> f'n themes
[20:57] <raged> why oh why did i upgrade
[20:57] <lachouffe> then (( $FOO++ ))
[20:57] <Tartaros> teasdalec: so I asked if you can't just use the generic .31 kernel that is now in karmic
[20:57] <sartan> Here's a screenshot of the 9.04->9.10 cosmetic issue i spotted with regards to the system tray notification area.  Am I alone with this glitch? http://mistrust.ca/images/shadingproblem.png
[20:57] <addisonj_> is the a channel for the netbook remix?
[20:57] <Bragex9> blackfate, I have now created a live usb disc. I have also started the pc, and have some choices available. Try ubuntu without any changes on the pc,Install ubuntu, check for error or memory test. What do I do?
[20:57] <jontoenn> anyone knows how to install Skype on my Ubuntu 9.04-computer?
[20:57] <lianimator> is anyone else seeing a flash of white before the login screen?? fully updated karmic.
[20:57] <sartan> lianimator: no i am not
[20:57] <Tamale> BenG92: Just put a \ in front of the space
[20:57] <sartan> video driver?
[20:58] <Lord_Stallion> you can try it without installing
[20:58] <BlackFate> Bragex9,  the first one
[20:58] <DjAngo23> How can i format a SD card to Fat32 via Ubuntu ?
[20:58] <love_> has anyone here been able to enable install ati video driver is jockey?
[20:58] <lianimator> sartan: nvidia latest,, only happened after updates
[20:58] <jasunto> No touchpad and keyboard 9.10 live fix?
[20:58] <erUSUL> DjAngo23: with gparted ?
[20:58] <Tartaros> sartan: guess those icons are from nonstandard programs :) like pidgin which is no more the official 1st choice im client
[20:58] <Tamale> Hi all, my main menu is messed up after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10.  "Places" and "System" are both half the height of all other elements and it's very difficult to mouse over them. Help please!
[20:58] <sartan> Tartaros: i knew i'd hear that, but empathy is crap so i'm sticking with pidgin
[20:58] <sartan> with regards to nonstandard programs, this shouldn't be happening regardless of what program it is
[20:59] <Tartaros> sartan: yeah I started using empathy but am having second thoughts too :D
[20:59] <sartan> i gave it a fair try. i just don't like it
[20:59] <Tamale> Hi all, when I mouseover a contact in pidgin, the window pops up but is blank. Is something wrong with pidgin in 9.10?
[20:59] <philh> Tamale, maybe you could try right clicking on them and removing the menu bar before adding it to the panel again
[20:59] <[JackD]> i would imagine pidgin is dropped because of its total lack of security when it comes to account storage
[20:59] <sartan> Tamale: Right on topic. No, i do not have the same problem,
[20:59] <jake_> Since I have upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 I have not been able to get BBC iplayer to work. The video player loads up but I am unable to press the play button to start the video. Is this a known issue? I could not find anything about it online.
[21:00] <Tamale> sartan: Any idea what's wrong then?
[21:00] <sartan> Empathy's message notification process is weak. It doesn't pop up a bar, menu, or open a window, it just flashes a little dot on your background.  talking to multiple people is also difficult.
[21:00] <DjAngo23> erUSUL: Goin to try that out ;)
[21:00] <philh> jake_, is flash installed and working otherwise?
[21:00] <Tamale> philh: I can't remove places and system from main menu, they're built in
[21:00] <jake_> philh, other than that it's fine yes
[21:00] <trism> Tamale: my only other idea would be to try resetting the gnome panels to their default settings
[21:00] <cidco> I am trying to setup a HTPC with a lenovo q700 and ubuntu. I installed lirc to get my remote working, unfortunately its not working, im wondering how i can tell what type of hrdware the receiver is on my pc so i can tell if its even supported by lirc?
[21:00] <alexxio> hi, do you know issues with ubuntu and ati 3450?
[21:00] <trism> !panels | Tamale
[21:00] <Tamale> ubottu: I've tried that
[21:00] <philh> Tamale, are you using a strange gtk theme or anything?
[21:01] <lianimator> this flash of light before the login screen disable the automatic login. and on my laptop lenovo y550 with nvidia gt 240m gives me the fuzzy look that I only get after a suspend.. please help.
[21:01] <Tamale> no, default
[21:01] <Tamale> philh: no, default themes
[21:01] <crohakon> damnit, pandora.com stopped working again. Do I have to redo the f**king flash plug in every time I reboot my computer?!
[21:01] <alexgee> they certainly didn't make pidgin easy to install on Karmic Koala for the novice user...
[21:01] <Bragex9> blackfate, OK. Now ubuntu has started. What do I do next?
[21:01] <sartan> hey trism your blurb fixed /my/ problem too :)
[21:01] <philh> jake_, weird, well, as a workaround you can use get_iplayer, i'd recommend getting it anyway, but i don't have a fix for the issue, sorry
[21:02] <sartan> thanks mate. the weird icon highlighting is gone
[21:02] <Doctor-46> sera
[21:02] <fx4> amd_64 running karmic 9.10 dont have any keyboard function in KDM  help ?
[21:02] <navi_> HELP !! I can't run firefox after addons instalation , how to fix it ? firefox: ../../src/xcb_io.c:542: _XRead: Assertion `dpy->xcb->reply_data != ((void *)0)' failed.
[21:02] <Tamale> All, my mouse pointer registers clicks from the wrong side of the cursor arrow in 9.10. It's never done this before.
[21:02] <trism> alexgee: really? it should just be sudo apt-get install pidgin
[21:02] <jake_> philh, thanks
[21:02] <MaT-dg> alexgee: Applications > Software Center > search for pidgin. Is that hard?
[21:02] <philh> jake_, the web pvr interface is quite neat
[21:03] <skep> navi_: run firefox in safe-mode
[21:03] <skep> disable the addon then
[21:03] <navi_> skep , how ?
[21:03] <defrysk> remove .firefox
[21:03] <antlers> my indicator applet session now shows my empathy status. i want it to show my pidgin status. how to fix?
[21:03] <sartan> switching it back to 'system theme' for background color also buggered it up. heh.
[21:03] <skep> navi_: firefox -safe-mode
[21:03] <skep> from commandline
[21:03] <jasunto> No keyboard or mouse here, get to look at a screen but cant interact how fun
[21:04] <sartan> antlers: i removed empathy completely and ran pidgin again.
[21:04] <Tartaros> antlers: I'd guess it's one of pidgin plugins
[21:04] <Tamale> Does anyone here know when mozilla thunderbird will be added to the software center?
[21:04] <penthief> Hi, I've got a problem with my upgrade -- I'm in a terminal now, and I know that if I CTRL-ALT F7 back, everything will freeze in 1 second. Any suggestions of which logs to check etc?
[21:04] <sartan> there's another pidgin notifier app too that i decided not to install
[21:04]  * defrysk has no use for emparhy
[21:04] <sartan> empathy is awful. did they consult the userbase before they made the big leap?
[21:04] <BlackFate> Bracki, open a terminal
[21:04] <trism> antlers: it should just automatically show the pidgin status (it does for me), although it still shows empathy too...I just added the pidgin tray icon back, much easier
[21:04] <BlackFate> Bragex9, open a terminal
[21:04] <cidco> Anyone using lirc? I am trying to setup a HTPC with a lenovo q700 and ubuntu. I installed lirc to get my remote working, unfortunately its not working, im wondering how i can tell what type of hrdware the receiver is on my pc so i can tell if its even supported by lirc?
[21:04] <navi_> thx
[21:04] <vega-> Tamale: added? thunderbird has been in ubuntu as long as ubuntu has existed ..
[21:04] <Tamale> vega-: Which is why I'm surprised it's not in the software center
[21:05] <vega-> cidco: see lirc pages for supported hw, also /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
[21:05] <defrysk> sartan, they do politics, estranging from userbase
[21:05] <philh> sartan, is there a plugin that needs to be enabled for libnotify stuff?
[21:05] <Bragex9> blackfate, terminal opened
[21:05] <Tamale> vega-: I was trying to convince my parents to switch to ubuntu because of the new software center, and it doesn't even have popular open source applications in it
[21:05] <franc> !bot
[21:05] <vega-> Tamale: it is in mine
[21:05] <BlackFate> Bragex9, cd /media/*
[21:05] <Tamale> vega-: the weird thing is there are thunderbird extensions in it
[21:05] <cidco> vega- i know to check their , im just trying to figure out what hardware is in my pc.
[21:05] <franc> !bot | norsk
[21:05] <grymme> hey, after dist-upgrade my movies are blueish. you know how to deal with that?
[21:06] <franc> ?
[21:06] <sartan> philh: sorry man i'm not very smart and clever at user support stuff.  like i said i uninstalled empathy and its notification brother, removed pidgin, reinstalled it, and now the icon is back the way it was before.
[21:06] <trism> philh: libnotify popups on the plugin page
[21:06] <bastidrazor> cidco: sudo lshw | less
[21:06] <vega-> cidco: you mean what receiver?
[21:06] <cidco> yes
[21:06] <franc> norsk irc?
[21:06] <Rascal999> how do you disable home encryption?
[21:06] <sartan> there wasn't any tertiary library to install it just worked.

[21:06] <franc> !bot | norwegian
[21:06] <franc> ..
[21:06] <vega-> cidco: see bastidrazor's comment
[21:06] <Tartaros> Tamale: it does have thunderbird. Also, the "software center" isn't much more than the synaptic or apt-get, just fancier
[21:06] <paramon> hi)
[21:06] <franc> !bot languages
[21:06] <sartan> philh: http://mistrust.ca/images/shadingproblem.png  minus the shading issues, is this what you want it to look like?
[21:06] <bastidrazor> !no | franc
[21:06] <franc> takk
[21:06] <Bragex9> blackfate, OK. done. A lot of numbers appears...
[21:07] <Tamale> Tartaros: ok, I believe it's there for you, but why isn't it showing up on my new 9.10 install or my parents?
[21:07] <penthief> No-one can help me with my Gnome lock-up?
[21:07] <vega-> cidco: you sure it has some kind of ir receiver?
[21:07] <paramon> русские есть?
[21:07] <Tamale> Tartaros: It's a lot easier to walk people through the software center than explaining apt-get
[21:07] <michael_campbell> Tamale, This a fresh install upgrade?
[21:07] <vega-> !ru | paramon
[21:07] <Tamale> michael_campbell: both
[21:07] <the_freest_man> question: on ubuntu, why can I not connect to any IRC servers beyond freenode with XChat, and no IRC servers with pidgin? Is this an ubuntu problem?
[21:07] <defrysk> the_freest_man, no
[21:07] <JC_Denton_> Hello, I got a video (avi) of which the video plays but not the sound. Any way to find out on ubuntu which codec im missing? I've tried blc
[21:08] <JC_Denton_> *vlc
[21:08] <TheCheeze> the_freest_man, no, i am on 5 different servers right now with x-chat
[21:08] <bastidrazor> !codecs > JC_Denton_
[21:08] <the_freest_man> I keep getting connection refused
[21:08] <Tartaros> Tamale: I just tried it. Wrote "thunder" in the search textbox and the first thing that appeared is "Mozilla Thunderbird Mail/News". Dunno why you wouldn't have it there
[21:08] <defrysk> JC_Denton_, make sure the file is not corrupted
[21:08] <corinth> Changing my status via the indicator applet causes pidgin to disconnect. :-(   Any help?
[21:08] <JC_Denton_> defrysk: plays fine on windows
[21:09] <philh> JC_Denton_, with vlc?
[21:09] <ne0_> hi
[21:09] <trism> corinth: same for me...that seems like a bug
[21:09] <defrysk> JC_Denton_, play it on windows then
[21:09] <grendal_prime> does anyone remember the goofy video about ms developers that had to sit in a chair that would shock them everytime someone submitted feedback from a crashed program?
[21:09] <corinth> Blah, trism
[21:09] <Tamale> Tartaros: Yeah, when I type 'thunder' I get prism and some thunderbird extensions
[21:09] <fx4> tartaros maybe he doesnt have all repos enabled
[21:10] <aris44> hello
[21:10] <Tamale> Hi all, when I mouseover a contact in pidgin, the window pops up but is blank. I've tried re-installing to no avail.  How can I fix this?
[21:10] <pkohr> Does anyone have a definitive answer on if 9.10 works on a Dell mini 10 or not? (to what extent: out of the box) Through experience or otherwise. I have searched many boards and can not come up with a conclusive answer.
[21:10] <cidco> vega- its the lenovo q700 came with a mce remote
[21:10] <JC_Denton_> defrysk: no, don't feel like booting into it. Just confirms its not corrupted you see
[21:10] <praboy> Hi. I am installing Ubuntu 9.10, but it dies on Step 2 (select location)  http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/149/screenshottk.png
[21:10] <grendal_prime> neverimd i found it
[21:10] <cidco> and built in receiver
[21:10] <Tartaros> Tamale: well try to install the extension and see what happens :)
[21:10] <Akuma0n3> Hello, I just changed my graphics card from a nvidia to an ATI and the xserver isn't starting anymore
[21:10] <JC_Denton_> philh, yes, using vlc
[21:10] <bosse_> Is Yellow dog better for PS3 owner than Ubuntu is?
[21:10] <Tamale> Tartaros: Actually, I tried that. It says it depends on thunderbird
[21:10] <aris44> can anybody help me install virtualbox on ubuntu 9.10?
[21:10] <Akuma0n3> is ther any way for me to get ubuntu to redetect the new settings?
[21:10] <Tamale> Tartaros: I know how to make it work with apt-get, but I was wondering if the software center has some known problems
[21:10] <vega-> cidco: ok, so it probably has a receiver also yes
[21:10] <philh> JC_Denton_, look into medibuntu then, i guess there's some restricted stuff missing at the moment
[21:11] <Tamale> Tartaros: I'm really trying to help get more people using ubuntu but this kind of weirdness makes it hard to convince people it's ready for public use
[21:11] <vega-> cidco: did lshw give anything interesting?
[21:11] <teasdalec> when i use update manager and try to install updates i get the following message E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.24-22-lpia_2.6.24-22.45netbook9_lpia.deb: files list file for package `libxcb-shape0' is missing final newline, any clues ??
[21:11] <Tetracomm> Could someone remind me how to improve two or more programs with one command in the terminal?
[21:11] <JC_Denton_> philh - you mean try another distribution?
[21:11] <philh> Tamale, each time i think it's getting close they decide to move everything around and break stuff
[21:11] <Bob_Dole> Audio is having issues on a few applications. None that are in the repos, admittedly. Vendetta Online, which has a native linux client, has garbled audio. It delays in playing, and small bits will replay over and over. It has a lot of distortion(it uses ALSA). Games under WINE(using ALSA) does this too. Youtube videos on firefox are "fine" but has minor distortion, on 9.04 it was present too, turning PCM down fixed it.. I can't fi
[21:11] <Bob_Dole> nd that option in 9.10s GUI.
[21:11] <axisys> i dont hear sound from this url http://www.usenix.org/events/lisa09/stream1/ .. any help would be appreciated
[21:11] <aris44> VirtualBox wont run on 9.10 :@
[21:12] <Tamale> philh: I feel the same way.
[21:12] <ggeorges39> bonsoir
[21:12] <ikus060> Hi All, after installing, deinstalling, testing etc different Nvidia driver, I don't have any driver listed in "Hardware Drivers" tools. Is there a way to easily reset everything related to nvidia driver ??
[21:12] <Tartaros> teasdalec: try uninstalling this .24 image and install the generic .31 image, which you can find using Synaptic
[21:12] <penthief> aris44: I think that's a kernel bug
[21:12] <philh> JC_Denton_, no, it's a repository of media related packages which aren't available from ubuntu for stupid legal reasons
[21:12] <ikus060> I want to install nvidia-glx-185
[21:12] <Tamale> Hi all, my main menu is messed up after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10.  "Places" and "System" are both half the height of all other elements and it's very difficult to mouse over them. Help please!
[21:12] <Guest86020> can anyone help me
[21:12] <JC_Denton_> philh , ah, ok
[21:12] <jake_> JC_Denton_, who knows - what's the issue?
[21:12] <Bob_Dole> Basically 9.10 seems like a really shiny disappointment.
[21:12] <BUGabundo> bRoas
[21:12] <Bragex9> blackfate, I did the cd /media/*  A lot of numbers and letters appear after media/.......
[21:12] <praboy> i-m getting Nov  3 21:12:25 ubuntu kernel: [ 4966.640990] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Add. Sense: Unrecovered read error - auto reallocate failed
[21:13] <gnomeye> Tamale: You don't have to convince them. For further information see the log of the presentation "Be your neighbor's Ubuntu Guru - FabianRodriguez"  that happened yesterday on UbuntuOpenWeek https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekKarmic/UbuntuGuru
[21:13] <philh> Tamale, everything was going well, even pulse audio was working fine for one release, and then everything seemed to fall apart at 8.10
[21:13] <teasdalec> tartaros: thanks but how do i do that, completely new to ubuntu and a bit thick too!
[21:13] <JC_Denton_> jake, I have video but no sound playing an avi file which I know contains sound
[21:13] <philh> i haven't had any success with pulse since
[21:13] <Guest86020> i just want to know: how can i get input from a terminal (using a shell script)
[21:13] <jrib> Guest86020: try #bash for help scripting in bash
[21:13] <Guest86020> i can't find anything good on google
[21:13] <switchgirl1> how to encrypt a directory?
[21:13] <pkohr> Bob_Dole: So there is significant lack of support for the audio and video hardware componets?
[21:13] <cidco> vega- it didnt
[21:13] <Tamale> gnomeye: I do have to convince them. If I don't, they'll go back to windows and I'll go back to removing viruses every few months :(
[21:13] <Guest86020> thanks
[21:13] <jake_> I know it may be a really obvious place to start but with my 9.10 upgrade, the sound was set to mute by default
[21:13] <ceafu> google is full of good stuff.
[21:13] <penthief> Guest86020: readline
[21:14] <Guest86020> i will go to #bash
[21:14] <iandm> Any ideas on that one? After upgrading I have a problem with the usb-modem (Huawei E169). When pluging it in dmesg brings up some error messages which keep aon looping until I take it aout again. http://paste.ubuntu.com/308794/ thx for help!
[21:14] <jake_> check the volume control on the panel, top right
[21:14] <vega-> cidco: can you put the whole output on pastebin, also lspci ?
[21:14] <cidco> vega- it shows pretty much all the devices i know about, usb and such.
[21:14] <cidco> vega- sure
[21:14] <flarkin> Hi...i am trying to change the permission to my root folder does anyone know how to?
[21:14] <gnomeye> Tamale: So tell them you won't any more removing them viruses, if they keep using windows
[21:14] <Bob_Dole> pkohr, I do have video issues in WINE, turning off some hardware support fixes that... But audio is broken in linux native games using ALSA, and wine games, with WINE set to use ALSA.
[21:14] <jrib> flarkin: erm, why do you want to do that?
[21:14] <penthief> flarkin: man chmod
[21:14] <woddf2> Hello
[21:15] <philh> Bob_Dole, try alsamixer from a terminal
[21:15] <gnomeye> Tamale:  I would read the log of the presentation from yesterday, it helped me too... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekKarmic/UbuntuGuru
[21:15] <MrDusty> Tartaros, Sorry I was AFK.  No I havn't tried disabling acceleration.. will take a look at that now.  I Have two 24" monitors both doing 1680x1050 so that would be (1680 x 2) x 1050.. so sound plausible - however its the same setup i've used since 8.x
[21:15] <Tamale> gnomeye: They'd love to use ubuntu if I didn't have to walk them through the command line all the time
[21:15] <philh> you should be able to reduce the pcm level there if not in the normal gui
[21:15] <m0smith> I am having problems with apt-get:  packages I know exist are not found: subversion for one
[21:15] <woddf2> When I try to mount an NTFS partition, I get this: >>fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy<<
[21:15] <jrib> m0smith: pastebin

[21:15] <sartan> too spammy in here.

[21:16] <Bob_Dole> Well, I see PCM in alsamixer, so I an fix the distortion in working audio.
[21:16] <flarkin> jrib: i'm trying to install a program and it needs to be able to write to my root directory...i know how to change the permission to a single folder but i can't figure out how to do it to my z:drive
[21:16] <Tartaros> MrDusty: well I meant it's automatically disabled due to too big virtual desktop. Might be completely wrong ofc :)
[21:16] <trism> corinth: Do you have your MSN account enabled in empathy too? The problem seems to be that the indicator applet logs you into empathy when you change status (which seems like a bug if you're using pidgin)..I disabled my account in empathy and it works now
[21:16] <Haitham> Hello, I'm trying to install a game (Just to try things out), its called HedgeWars to be specific, anyways, I had a problem with the "Cmake" command, been able to install CMake using sudo command, now it says it requires other than that such as QT and FreePascal, so I try to do Sudo with them, but it keeps giving me Package not Found, what's all this about?
[21:16] <joaopinto> Haitham, hedgewar is available from the repositories
[21:16] <JC_Denton_> trying medibuntu right now, will let you know
[21:16] <jrib> flarkin: you are going to break your system.  Tell us what you actually want to accomplish.  i.e. what are you trying to install?
[21:16] <axisys> !acroread
[21:16] <axisys> !acrobat
[21:17] <philh> Bob_Dole, how about gnome-volume-control from the terminal, is that just the same as the volume control you were talking about earlier?
[21:17] <woddf2> Also, swap does not mount at boot. How do I make it mount at boot?
[21:17] <JC_Denton_> which version of mono is shipped with 9.10?
[21:17] <ikonia> woddf2: swap doesn't mount
[21:17] <axisys> !adobe
[21:17] <jrib> Haitham: hedgewars should be in the repositories.  Use APT, don't compile it
[21:17] <Haitham> Hedge-Wars that is, and I just wanted to see how things work, I mean why it managed to find CMake package and didn't find FreePascal nor QT
[21:17] <Haitham> ?
[21:17] <axisys> !pdf
[21:17] <m0smith> The sources.list exists  and "looks" ok.  I haven't messed with it on a clean isntall
[21:17] <Tartaros> teasdalec: ok how did you get the "linux-image-2.6.24-22-lpia_2.6.24-22.45netbook9_lpia.deb"?
[21:17] <Bob_Dole> philh, yep.
[21:17] <eyore15> my UNR on a Starling Netbook defaulted to 800X600 resolution after upgrading to 9.10.  There's no options to improve that in the "display" function.  I'm a newb, so seeing things like "edit your xlorg file" scare me to death.  Any suggestions for possible resolutions?
[21:17] <pjw> Hi all, Do somebody use qemu/kvm on Ubuntu 9.10? I can't install Windows XP. While formatting occur "Unable to format the partition. The disk may be damaged".
[21:17] <flarkin> jrib: world of warcraft, its in a exe file but i'm using wine
[21:17] <woddf2> ikonia: Conky says there is no swap and it does not use swap unles I run "swapon /dev/mapper/cryptswap1" as root.
[21:17] <Tartaros> because it's certainly not part of standard ubuntu
[21:18] <jrib> m0smith: can you just pastebin the command you ran and the output.  Throw in sources.list too since you've got that handy now
[21:18] <hkais> hello all
[21:18] <jrib> !appdb > flarkin
[21:18] <cidco> vega- here it is http://pastebin.com/m1f3032b5
[21:18] <m0smith> sure
[21:18] <Haitham> mm, damn, I just wanna improve my Linux knowledge..
[21:18] <ikonia> woddf2: ok - so that's not mounting, but that's fine. Put it in your fstab - I suspect it's because of the encyption
[21:18] <pkohr> Bob_Dole: More of an audio issue then. Supposing that you have the mini 10 and not 10v. UNR or basic desktop? Are you running at full resolution and have the Poulsbo drivers installed, or are they no longer nesscary in 9.10?
[21:18] <jrib> flarkin: read the instructions on appdb
[21:18] <philh> Bob_Dole, can you change the device at the top?
[21:18] <jrib> !compile > Haitham
[21:18] <JC_Denton_> !mono
[21:18] <hkais> I am getting the message, that python which comes in with the update-manager cannot be Authenticated?
[21:18] <hkais> can someone help?
[21:18] <jrib> Haitham: read how you would compile it, but then you should still actually install it using APT
[21:18] <philh> Bob_Dole, i presume it'll default to pulse
[21:18] <teasdalec> tartaros: i bought a netbook and switched it on. there was an icon at the top for update manager i clicked on install updates and got that message
[21:19] <Bob_Dole> pkohr, I have a big core 2 desktop, that everything on ubuntu 9.04 worked. 9.10 has lots of issues.
[21:19] <njbair> My EEE PC doesn't have enough disk space to allow me to upgrade to Karmic. Can I mount a flash drive to a specific directory so that it has room to download the packages, or is there another solution to this issue?
[21:19] <JC_Denton_> the file plays fine now
[21:19] <woddf2> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/308826/
[21:19] <uramaget> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - I can't get grub-install command to run, because it tells me that it cannot open '/boot/grub/devices.map' and it says 'unexpected error' How do I solve this?
[21:19] <philh> njbair, i wonder if you could mount it somewhere in /var/
[21:20] <pjw> Does somebody uses Windows XP on Qemu/KVM on Ubuntu 9.10? I have problems with this issue.
[21:20] <philh> njbair, if you get a good answer could you pm me, i'd be interested to know, similar situation here
[21:20] <Haitham> I read install File - and followed it, and i sensed an Improvement by getting CMake package without instructions (:D) but still, the others just phailed.
[21:20] <ikonia> woddf2: you've got swap commented out
[21:20] <njbair> philh: sure
[21:20] <m0smith> http://pastebin.com/m21270a9d
[21:20] <Bob_Dole> philh, the GUI doesn't seem to have the option to change it.
[21:20] <jrib> !who | Haitham
[21:20] <vega-> cidco: what about lsusb ?
[21:20] <hkais> !unauthenticated package
[21:21] <jrib> Haitham: like I said, read ubottu's link about how to compile things to *learn*.  But when you actually want to install it, use APT
[21:21] <hkais> !unauthenticated
[21:21] <hkais> !not authenticated
[21:21] <Bragex9> blackfate, still there?
[21:21] <properz> hi , i changed resulition but my mbar ( the start menu is half)
[21:21] <pkohr> Bob_Dole: I am refering to the mini 10, I assume that your eariler response about the out of the box capabilites was refering to it and not your destop?
[21:21] <philh> Bob_Dole, no drop down box at the top, and no pcm entry in the dialogue that pops up when you press preferences?
[21:21] <Haitham> Aha, thanks alot Jrib. :)
[21:21] <hkais> !authenticated
[21:21] <Haitham> Just book-marked the page.

[21:22] <woddf2> ikonia: Hopefully that worked, thanks
[21:22] <Bob_Dole> pkohr, I havn't mentioned my Mini 10v. It's still running 9.04 quite happily and absolutely problem free.(excluding a VNC client segfaulting)
[21:22] <l3dx> anyone know how I can get libgtk1.2 in karmic?
[21:22] <woddf2> Also, when I try to mount an NTFS partition, I get this: >>fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy<<
[21:22] <vega-> njbair: philh: i did that once by symlinking /var/cache/apt (or whatever was the place that apt downloads packages to) to some other dir where i had space
[21:22] <hkais> noone here with 9.10 and a message that some package cannot be authenticated?
[21:22] <Bob_Dole> philh, the GUI seems to have merged everything to be more user friendly by removing options- Options I used quite often.
[21:23] <pkohr> Bob_Dole: I think I thought you where answering my question and you thought I was answering your quetion. :P
[21:23] <pkohr> *Question
[21:23] <l3dx> can I install packages from previous versions of ubuntu?
[21:23] <woddf2> Ohh wait
[21:23] <njbair> vega-: thanks, i'll give that a try
[21:23] <jrib> !info subversion
[21:23] <Bob_Dole> Well, I don't like pulse audio..lets see how 9.10 handles sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio.
[21:23] <hkais> l3dx: typically not. which package do you want to install?
[21:24] <m0smith> !clojure
[21:24] <jrib> m0smith: run « sudo apt-get update » and try again
[21:24] <m0smith> !info clojure
[21:24] <Flarkin> jrib: my problems are not addressed on there...most of that is post installation problems
[21:24] <jrib> Flarkin: you are asking how to change permissions of your filesystem.  But wine installs to your home directory.
[21:25] <l3dx> hkais: libgtk1.2 - I need it in order to install Unreal Tournament GOTY :D
[21:25] <Bob_Dole> 9.04 worked fine after purging pulse audio, 9.10 doesn't seem to like it at all.
[21:25] <hkais> you have 9.10?
[21:25] <l3dx> eys
[21:25] <l3dx> yes
[21:25] <pkohr> Anyone know if 9.10 works on a Dell mini 10 or not and to what extent?
[21:25] <conb123> Did they get rid of xorg.conf in karmic? I need to add a couple of options to it
[21:25] <artis2kewl> I'm a newbie to Ubuntu and am desperate for some help/advice.....please help
[21:25] <vega-> conb123: just create it if it's not there
[21:25] <vega-> conb123: and add the stuff you need
[21:25] <brendan-> artis2kewl: ask your question
[21:25] <Flarkin> jrib: humm i may have misunderstood what wine did....i also am running a virtual xp system so when i started the install and there was a C:/ i assumed it was from that
[21:26] <Bob_Dole> artis2kewl, we can't help if we don't know the problem.. So ask the question, not ask for help.
[21:26] <ncfi1013_> what is another name for aptitude, if there is one, because i have it running and i want to turn it off and i cant find it in system activity.
[21:26] <m0smith> jrib: smae result
[21:26] <conb123> vega-: Ok but it can't just be the stuff i need how do i create one, what's the command?
[21:26] <m0smith> same
[21:26] <brendan-> ncfi1013_: apt-get
[21:26] <acke> hey, anyone knows what to do with the *broken windowsmanager issue* after todays updates?
[21:26] <brendan-> or you can use synaptics
[21:26] <artis2kewl> I just installed ubuntu 9.10
[21:26] <polandchris> I dont like Karmic Koala :( It's much slower than Jaunty imo
[21:26] <ncfi1013_> thanx brendan
[21:26] <hkais> l3dx: what is your error message in UT?
[21:26] <artis2kewl> after booting from Ubuntu CD

[21:27] <woddf2> Goodbye
[21:27] <artis2kewl> onto my USB stick
[21:27] <l3dx> hkais: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:27] <conb123> vega-: Yeah i know but the file is not in /etc/X11 like it usually is
[21:27] <artis2kewl> now when booting menu shows WinXP
[21:27] <artis2kewl> but won't boot into it
[21:27] <Nubosal> artis2kewl: Uhmm
[21:27] <vega-> conb123: yes because by default it is not needed anymore, but it will be read if you create it
[21:27] <Nubosal> I think you erased WinXP data and installed Ubuntu over it
[21:27] <jrib> m0smith: pastebin the output of « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install subversion »
[21:27] <artis2kewl> HDD is in raid array strip mode
[21:28] <hkais> make a symlink from libgtk-1.2.so.0 => libgtk-2.0.0.so.0
[21:28] <hkais> this usually is enough
[21:28] <conb123> vega-: Right ok, and i do not need the rest of the stuff that is usually created in an xorg.conf, just the options i need?
[21:28] <m0smith> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m18ad9e9f
[21:28] <m0smith> at the bottom
[21:28] <hkais> l3dx: ^^^
[21:28] <vega-> conb123: imho yes, of course you need to probably create some sections there, depending on what stuff you will be adding
[21:28] <acke> metacity is the standard WM for ubuntu yes?
[21:29] <hkais> my update-manager reports not authenticated packages. Anyone here who has a similar problem?
[21:29] <artis2kewl> Nope WinXP data still there Ubuntu resides only on USB stick
[21:29] <ncfi1013_> what would i look for in system activity to turn it off?
[21:29] <artis2kewl> and can read all data on the HDD array
[21:30] <Nubosal> Try removing the USB stick and trying to boot in Windows
[21:30] <LinuxGuy2009> Would using the Ubuntu LTS release after the first point release, would that be considered to be as stable as the Debian stable counterpart but of course with the newer packages?
[21:30] <artis2kewl> ]nope it says no disk
[21:30] <blizzow> Are lots of people complaining about the audio after an upgrade to Karmic?  My thinkpad audio is now b0rked.  And the audio on my desktop is garbage too (VLC will play audio with lots of skipping, flash vids only play the first couple of seconds of audio).
[21:30] <artis2kewl> tried booting into dell recovery partition same effect
[21:30] <Bragex9> Blackfate, I can perhaps just make a backup of all my files and then reinstall ubuntu from the live ubuntu usb? Or is another way?
[21:30] <l3dx> hkais: will try :D
[21:30] <Nubosal> Then your HDD has a problem
[21:30] <eTiger13_> how do i see which partitions are on my drive and their size and locations from cli?
[21:30] <blizzow> My laptop doesn't have any audio at all after upgrading to karmic.  (Thinkpad X30)
[21:30] <penthief> blizzow: yes no audio here either
[21:31] <hkais> blizzow: can approve your thoughts. sound is crappy in karmic
[21:31] <dusty__> Tartox, Fixed it by using the other driver, sweet :)
[21:31] <rblst> i've upgraded to karmic and my hp laserjet 1018 no longer works; can anyone help me with this?
